just been completed Cram tRep.) Is
elected sheriff over Sweet (Dem.) by %
majority. The Republicans elect the en-
tire county ticket in the city the Re
publicans elect FIVE representatives to the
Legislature and the Democrats one. Re
turns from the First congressional dis
trict so far indicate n plurality Of 1000
for Reed.
The great fight in the county was over
the election Of sheriff Sheriff Cram had.
by his activity in enforcing the liquor
laws. made himself obnoxious to GER
tain element, and it was thought that
enough Republicans would vote for SWEET
to secure Grams defeat.
One hundred and seventy-seven towns

1890 If the vote TO hear from comes at
the same ratio of gain the total vote VIII
be about Republicans. .6S,000; Democrats,
$500. or 10000 Republican plurality.
We can only guess at the Prohibition
and labor votes. as many towns have not
given them, but call them: ProhlDltlon,
300: Labor 1.500. This is the lightest
vote on the presidential year since lSiZ.
In 1883 the Governors vote stood: lie
publicaus 79,4O1; Democrats, 6l.34S;
Prohibition, 3.109; Labor, 1,326; scatter
ing. 20. Total. 1453S4.
The First district, with thirteen towns
TO hear from, gives Reed 1887; lngra-
ham. 12.2S2: Reeds majority, l.o4o.
The remaining towns will probably IN
crease it to 1000 or more.
All the Republican ticket in Cumber-
land county save sheriff is elected The
latter is in doubt, but claimed by the
Democrats with chances in their favor.
This is the first election under the Aus
tralian ballot system and 1t appears TO
be satisfactory except that it delays the
count.
In the Third and Fourth districts Mill
liken and Boutelle are reelected with
ont the shadow of doubt. although the
former is running behind his ticket.

WILLIAMSBURG. Va, Sept. 13.-ISpecial.l J
The unlawful dethiner" case of the College
of William and Mary against the school
board Of this city commenced yesterday
afternoon in the county court and was ad-
iourned over until this morning. This is q
case in which the college authorities claim
possession of the building known as the
"Grammar and hatty school house" which
10 held by our school board under lease
from the college granted in 1884 for period
of ten years. The ground for this action Is
that few months ago the school board
instituted suit against the college OF VIII
liam and Mary for the recovery of sum of
money left many years ago in England by
Mrs. Mary Whaley for the establishment OF
a school in Bruton parish for the education
of 'indigent children" and the will. il is
said. directed that this fund should be
vested in the wardens of Bruton Episcopal
church, but il was found that the trust
oould not under the law be accepted. as
the trustees of this church were not
corporate body. so this fund lay
in England for many years. when by
decree of the English Chanoery Court
il was turned over to the William aud Mary
College authorities, who undertook to exc
cute the trust and carry out the provisions
of the will, and by whom it is said the house
in question was built. and built out OF this
fund. The action taken for the recovery
