Than Usually Meager.

jority for Cleveland of %, 1872. The en-
tire city and county democratic ticket
has been elected by big majority.
Cleveland carries Queens county by
about $500 plurality, gain over 1888
of 900. Harrison carried Suffolk county
by about 200, gain Of 200 compared

Cleveland 63p 965; Streoter, 626; Fisk, 3O,2ji.

CHICAGO, Nov. 9.-The indications are
that the state OF Illinois has gone for
Cleveland and Stevenson by 5000 TO
10000 plurality and that the entire state
democratic ticket Is elected. Later re-
turns may change these figures, as the
county districts yet TO be heard from
are likely to cut down the democratic
gain in the county precincts
Thi.a er,, N nd CAalf annnty urtva (lava-
land and Stevenson and Altgeld, the
democratic candidate for governor, not
less than $4,000 plurality, which will
| probably more than Offset the repub-
| lican majority in the country precincts
a. the country thus far has shown the
| Harrison vote to be less than in 1883,
when Harrison had u plurality OF 1900
in the whole state. Two hundred and
twenty-five precincts in the state out
side OF Chicago give Harrison 4l,259,
Cleveland IS, $50 The same precincts
In 1883 gave Harrison IS, 7IS and Cleve-
land 80 sos, so that Cleveland's net gain
Is 1928.
The city press association shows that
800 precincts out of COS precincts in
Chicago give Cleveland 97,344; Harri-
son, 72, 100. This gives Cleveland n lead
Of 25, 1854 thus far in Cook county. As
Harrisons plurality in the state out
side OF Cook county in 1888 was but II, =
600, and the county returns thus far
show falling off OF 1928 in 200 pre-
cincts, II would seem that the result
must be very close-probably not over
8, 900 for Cleveland.

DENVER, Col, Nov. 9.-At IL o'clock,
with the exception of few precincts,
no official returns have been received.
In these Harrison has shown a
loss of pos. The state returns are
equally slow in coming in, but the
indications are that almost the en-
tire Weaver ticket has been elect
ed. No figures could be given last night
The only doubtful candidate on the
Weaver ticket Is Waite for governor,
who appears TO have run behind his
ticket The vote on Arapahoe county,
which has been republican for years by
1000 majority, will this year be very
close, IL not in favor OF Weaver. Seven.
teen small towns in Arapahoe county
outside OF Denver give Cleveland OPT
Harrison 305.
The republicans, however, do not
give up Colorado and claim that Harri
son will carry it by a neat plurality.
In 1888 COLORADO gave Harrison 5lsll;

coded that Gen. William A. Lilly ant
, Mai Alexander Mcdowell, republican
