NEBRASKA.

OMAHA, Neb, Nov. AT midnight
returns from Nebraska are still very
fragmentary, owing to the new election
law and poor method of counting. Fig
ures SO far received indicate that
Weaver will carry the state by a few
thousand. On governor the result is
very doubtful, Crounse (rep.) will not
get as large vote in Omaha as ex-
pected and Morton. democrat, develops
unexpected strength. Van Wyck lind J
is not so strong among laboring classes
in Omaha as expected. Going by re-
turns of one tenth of the state the
three candidates for governor will poll
about 70. 600 votes.
For congress. Brian, the brilliant
democrat of the first district is re-
elected. In the second district the race
is very close between Doane dem and
Mercer, (rep). Partial returns now
favor Doane The third congressional
district is close and in doubt, the three
candidates running almost even. In
the fourth the republicans will elect
Hainer. In the fifth the democrats and
Independents will elect McKeighan. In
the sixth the Independents will elect
KEN. The legislature will be about
40 per cent publican, 40 per cent. in
dependent and 20 per cent. democratic

New YORK, Nov. 9.-Contrary to the
general expectation the number of
votes cast in this city fell below the
estimates made by election expert
mathematicians. AS early as o'clock
the democratic managers admitted the
falling off amounted to over per cent.
compared with the vote of four years
ago. Various theories We're advanced
as to the cause. 1t is argued that hun
dreds of citizens who visited the polls
We're obliged to stand in line awaiting
their turn until their patience became
exhausted, and they gave it up. The
result is considerable decrease in the
ballots cast for the candidates of each
party.
The United States deputy marshals
and Davenport's supervisors are also
held for the decrease by the democrats,
it being said that many voters would
rather lose their votes, than in any
way place themselves in position
where there would be even possibility
of undergoing the detention and dis
comforts of arrest, whether justified or
not.

Demonstration by Chicago Anarchists at
the Graves Of the Bomb Throwers.
CHICAGO, Nov Yesterday was the
fifth anniversary of anarchy in
Chicago. Thirty-five hundred people
stood in a cold, drizzling rain at Wald-
helm cemetery, and paid tribute with
speech and song to the memory Of
"the martyred" bomb-throwers, strew-
ing flowers on the graves OF
the five men who were con-
demned by law for their participa-
tion in the Haymarl1et riot-August
Spies, George Engel, Albert Parsons,
Adolph Fischer and Louis Lingg.
Quiet earnestness and enthusiasm and
general good order characterized the
celebration Of the men and women who
dedicated TO the world a monument
that is to mark the graves Of those who
five years ago paid the penalty Of their
crime with their lives.
There were two features Of the days
exercises, parade in the city and the
ceremonies at the cemetery. The labor
organizations that were to participate
gathered at the Haymarlxet square at
1880 o'clock in the morning, but it was
noon before the procession moved.
Fifteen hundred men and women were
in line and as they marched to the
Grand Central depot, accompanied by
bands playing the "Marseillaise' and
the "Dead March in Saul" They were
watched with interest by many who
had stationed themselves on the side
walks along the route.

TERRIBLE DISASTER.

wreck OF the Steam whaler Ellen Mar ON
an Ice Fioe-Thirty-Fouro OF Her Crew
Drowed-The Four Survivors spend
Forty Eight Hours on the Ice Before
Being Rescued.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. News of one of
the worst disasters that has happened
IN the Arctic region for years is brought
by the steam whaler Beluga. 1t tells
OF the loss Of the schooner Helen Mar.
and the drowning of thirty-four men.
only one of the four survivors came
here, and he is now in the Marine hos
pital for treatment. The Helen Mar
was an old, but staunch boat, which
sailed from here December "a, last, un-
der Capt. E. o. Thatcher.
On October 6, when in latitude III
deg. so min, the vessel took two
whales. The crew were so busy with
the catch that they did not observe the
swift current currying them toward n
great ice foe, in the center of which
was a huge iceberg. When they OBJ
served their peril there was no time
left to escape a wreck. They got out
two boats. but had no time to get into
them before the vessel came in contact
with the foe
The vessel was broken to pieces and
IN five minutes the captain and thirty
three men had perished Mate Ward,
the boat steerer, Anton Pargalino, the
cook Kershaw, and two sailors
jumped onto the foe and went adrift.
They spent forty-eight hours on the ice
before their signal was seen, and they
were taken to Onalaska by a whaler.

pIanatlon given.

This slight setback was offset by the
next news, that of Queens county,
which gave a democratic plurality OF
900 more than in 1883. Slight surprises
were expected at the first tidings from
Buffalo, Lieut. Gov. Sheehan's home,
forty-one districts out of 120 giving
Cleveland 1852, Harrison S,729. This
gain was more than counter-balanced
by the word that Chautauaua county
gave Harrison only $500 majority, a
falling off of $50 since 1888.
There was considerable cheering
when it was announced that Weaver
had carried Oregon, and there was
more cheering still when a telegram
was received that the state OF Wash
ington had gone for Cleveland. This
was rapidly followed by the returns
from 500 city election districts, show
ing a democratic majority OF 81, S,5ss,
which created great excitement. The
returns from the interior of the state
came pouring in. showing repubi-
can loss in nearly every case.
Chairman Harrity was overwhelmed
with congra atulatiops, but he would
not commit himself. ut looks very
much like republican slaughter, ne
said. .sbct it IS too early in the day to

Much amusement was caused by the
Huntsville gazette., 1892-11-12

The repu blicans acknowledge the
falling off in the votes. and admit that
the loss caused by the delay at the
booths affected them more seriously
than the democrats. The latter suf-
fered more through challenges issued
by the republicans and arrests on
trumped-up charges On the whole, in
the decrease both parties suffered about
equally, and the result will, therefore,
be according to the party strength on
both sides.
Jimmy oliver, of Paradise Park,
created the furor of the early part of
the evening by bursting into the com
mittee room and exclaiming: Gentle
men, down where I live, the fortieth
election district Of the second assembly
district gives Cleveland 38S and Harri-
son votes, and where these four
votes came from / don't know" jim
my's announcement was heartily
cheered.

o'clock. 1t was from Suffolk county,
and showed a republican gain Of over
200 over the vote 1855. 1.-The clam dig

from Wheeling to the Times (rep.) says:
At o'clock this morning there is not a
figure on which to base reliable esti-
mate of the result in West Virginia,
not half dozen precincts in the entire
state having been counted. In the
city of Wheeling everything is in
doubt The vote throughout the state
was the heaviest ever polled, and the
indications are the republicans have
made gains. Chairman Dawson of the
republican state committee, says the
state has gone republican by a good
majority. Chairman Chiffon of the
democratic committee does not concede
this There was republican loss of
about 500 in Kanawha county.

patch has been received here from Du-

mining deals ever known in Mexico
had just been consummated. The deal
was the purchase of the wonderful iron

tcnsive steel and iron works il that city
by Coils P Huntington. president Of the

INDIANA.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Nov. AT mid
night the indications are that Indiana
will go republican. Heavy republican
gains over two years ago in Marion
county, containing the city Of Indian
apolis, indicate now, with forty out of
2Os precincts in, that the democratic
majority of 1000 in the county will be
reduced to 600. No comparisons can be
made on these precincts for their geo.
graphy was changed few months ago.
At the same time eighty precincts out
side the city show net gains of I, 104 for
Harrison, an average of eleven to the
precinct If this keeps up it will wipe
out the democratic majority of 1859
in 1890 and leave over $4,000 plurality
for the republicans.

COLUMBUS, O., Nov. g.-The returns

necessary slowness in counting the
banket ballots making the reports un-
usually late; but from all points come
news of republican gains, only isolated
precints showing democratic gains
Returns from $50 precincts out of 2,s09
in the state at 10 o'clock show republi-
can gains averaging twelve to
the precinct, and the indica-
tions from these meager returns
are that Harrison has carried the state
with plurality between 10000 and
100000 s. NJ. Taylor, republican can
didate for secretary of state, defeats w.
A. Taylor, democratic candidate, by
the same plurality. Democratic con-
gressmen are elected in six districts,
and the indications are that the repub-
licans have elected the fifteen other
members of the Ohio delegation.

nine precincts in Iowa had been heard
from at I t:30 o'clock, and it is impossi-
bic to give the result definitely. The
new election law rendered the count
ing of the ballots slow job. The in
dications are that the republicans have
carried the state on electors, and that
the state ticket is in doubt. The indi-
cations are that the republicans have
elected congressman in the first, third,
seventh, eighth, ninth and tenth dis
tricts, and the democrats in the sec
ond, fourth, fifth, sixth and eleventh
districts
DEs MONIES, Ia, Nov. 9.-At 1. a. m.

gave out the following statement:
There is no doubt of the election of
Cleveland and Stevenson by the popu-
lar vote, while the defeat of Harrison
is certain. New York has given mag
nificient plurality for Cleveland New
York surpasses all her previous records.
There is no break in the
south. Republican claims for Della
ware are unfounded. In Connec-
ticut returns show a steady advance
over the figures of 1888, when we car
ried the state. Indiana is undoubtedly
ours. The most glorious result appears
to be in Illinois, where, from the re-
turns, it would seem that for the first
time in its history the state has gone
democratic We have won the most
glorious and decisive victory in the his
tory of campaigns.

careful analysis of the returns.
