Claimed by Both Parties.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. I0.-The latest
returns from California tonight seem to
place the result of the Presidential cleo
ton in this State very much in doubt.
Computations made on the State vote
this afternoon indicated that Cleveland
would have a plurality Of about 5000.
The returns had been received then from
l ,339 precincts out of a total of | 1924 out
side OF San Francisco, and these gave
Harrison plurality of 5,44S. The returns
from San Francisco are incomplete and
conflicting, but the latest bulletin pub
lished this afternoon gave Cleveland a
plurality in this city of 1922, making
Cleveland's net plurality in the State at
large 2,474.
The Chairman of the Democratic State
Central Committee claimed that Cleve-
lands plurality would be 1920, and the
Republican committee conceded the State
to Cleveland by small plurality, but
returns from the interior of the State
came in rapidly during the afternoon.
One hundred and thirty precincts re-
ported between noon and the time the
last computation was made tonight, and
these precincts were principally in sew
eral large counties. Los Angeles, San
Bernardino, Kern and Fresno were
a1lOHS CHe HuIHDeI. IueSe laGSf returns
not only increased the total vote over
10000, but they also increased Harrison's S
plurality by nearly 1000.
The computation made tonight was
upon the returns from ,469 out of 1924
precincts outside OF San Francisco, and
the result was, Harrison 81 $50, Cleveland
74,535, Weaver 1921. Harrison's plural
ity, 7,445. Taking Cleveland's plurality
in San Francisco as 1922, it gives Cleve-
land net plurality Of 4S7. There are
still eighteen counties in the State from
which less than tWo-thirds Of the pre-
cincts have reported. These counties are
Alpine, Calaveras, Del Norte. Hum mboldt
Inyo, Lake, MendocinO, Merced, Modoc
Mono, Napa, shasta, Siskiyou. Sonoma,
Sutter, Trinity, Tuolumne and Ventura.
These counties complete gave Harrison
in 1883 plurality Of 542. According TO
these figures it seems that the ultimate
result Will depend upon Cleveland's ac-
tual plurality in san Francisco and final
returns from the 4j5 precincts in the in
terror which have not yet reported.
The Republican State Committee con-
cedes that Cleveland will have 5000 plu-
rality in this city. The Democratic State
Committee claims 5000 plurality in the
city ana the Democratic County Commit
tee claims 5000. The Republican COM
mittee comedies that the Democrats will
have majority of one or two on Joint
ballot in the Legislature. The Democrats
claim majority OF six TO eight.

Easton Rep, s,795. The Prohibition,
Peoples and Old Democratic candidates
poned 1855 votes. The returns are very
incomplete as to the remainder of the
municipal ticket. One or two Republi-
cans and one or two Non-Partisans are
probably elected, but in the main the
Democratic ticket has triumphed
The CGH tRep.) makes the following
calculations on the political complexion
of the Legislature: All the districts have
been beard from and the returns are in
except from the Sixtieth Assembly Dis
! trict. In the Senate with il hOidover
! Senators, the Republicans, will have %,
and the democrats, with holdovers,
| will have II. In the Assembly the Demo-
Gratis will have IL; Republicans, 81; Nom
Partisans, 2, and Populists. l. On .ioiut
ballot the Democrats will have % and the
Republicans 81. AS 81 votes are neces-
sary for a majority this leaves the bal
| ance of power in the hands of the two
| Nom -Partisans and one Populist Assem-
blyman. These three men were formerly
Republicans, and it is thought on the
election of United States Senator they
will vote with the Republicans
