AT REPUBLICAN, HEADQUARTERS.
How the News was Received by the
Leaders.

New YORK, Nov. S.-Around the re-
publican national committee head
quarters was a wild, yelling, horn
blowing crowd of enthusiasts who
hailed every message which showed
republican gains with screams of &C.
light. AS fast as the returns came
pouring in they were thrown on a huge
white canvas screen across the street.
Chairman Carter locked himself in
his office on the third floor, and there,
with several prominent republicans,
received the returns. The strain while
waiting for news was something enor-
nous, but the time passed quickly IN
the relation OF stories of the campaign.
The first news was from the city,
and showed Harrison was running
we'll. This was received with wells Of
delight.
After half an hours comparative lull,
the gratifying news was received from
Cnemung county, the home of j. Sloat
Fassett and Senator Hill, that the re-
publicans had made gain of 1120 over
the vote of 1888, but when at 1905 the
announcement was made that Indiana
had gone republican by 10, 900 majority,
the enthusiasm knew no bounds. The
crowd by this time we're wild at the
good news announced. From some
men who crowded their way through
the mass of yelling, singing enthusiasm,
1t was learned that the same enthusiasm
was existing down town among the
democrats but naturally the news was
dlscredited among the men who were
almost to the man, republican. As
the reports continued to arrive saying
that state after state was falling into
line for Harrison the crowd became
more and more demonstrative.
At 1875 o'clock the announcement
was made that Chairman Carter did
not concede the state of New York. He
sent message to President Harrison
saying: ave have them dead" A
little later he sent word down to the
waiting crowd from his nest on the
third floor that his cry was "Ben, Ben,
Ben Harrison" The crowd took up
the cry ard gave 1t with a will. AT
l0:40 o'clock Col. II. l.. Swords sent
word down stairs that they did no,
give up New York to the democrats by
any means. That, of course, was in
accord with the prevailing feeling.
They were claiming everything and to
show their happiness the crowd sang
cempaiga songs between the times OF
announcement.

TOM JOHNSON REELECTED.
The Democrats Seem to Have the Best
of it in Ohio Congressional Fights.

CLEVELAND, Nov. S.-The indications
in northern Ohio are that the repubi-
cans have polled their customary vote,
and made gains generally In all pre-
cincts except in Cuyahoga county.
Early returns from the down town pre-
cincts in Cleveland indicate democratic
gains. Tom l.. Johnson, the present
incumbent in congress from this dis
trict, is elected by about ! 800 plural
ity over Orlando j. Hodge, his republic
can opponent.
The district is normally republican
by 800. In the other congressional
districts of this part If the state the re-
publicans are more than holding their
own, and there does not appear to be
much prospect of the return to con.
gress Of NJ. ID. Harter, tor whom stren-
nous fight has been made against Z. J..
Johnson, the republican nominee.
Later returns may give Harter the
election, but it is doubtful. The ratio
of democratic gain in this county on
the first ten precincts, If continued,
will turn the county over to the demo-
Gratis for the first time in q presidential
election.
The democrats are wildly jubilant
over the result, and this city is in a
pandemonium. Northway, in Gar
fields old district, will 60 to congress
for the republicans, while Ashley, re-
publican nominee IN the Toledo dis
trlct. is going to have q hard task to
pull through.

appears 10 be running ahead Of Cleve-
land and Halle behind Harrison. Rus
cell Will have . plurality OF at least
$4,000 In the city as against 1860 last
year.
Various theories were advanced as 10
the cause. 1t Is argued that hundreds
OF citizens who visited the polls were
obliged TO stand In line awaiting their
turn until their patience became ex-
hausted and they gave 1t up. The re-
suit 10 . considerable decrease IN the
ballots cast for the Candidates of each
party. The United States deputy mar
shals and John i. Davenports super
ylsoIs are also held for the decrease by
the democrats, il being said that many
voters would rather forego their rights
OF franchise and lose their votes, than
in any way place themselves in q po-
sition where there would be even a pos
slbility. of undergoing the detention
and discomforts of arrest, whether
JUST fled or not.
The republicans acknowledge the
falling oil In votes and admit that the
loss caused by the delay al the booths
affected them more seriously than the
democrats. The latter suffered more
through the challenged ISSUED by the
republicans and the arrest on trumped
up charges of illegal registration. On
the whole III the decrease both parties
suffered about equally and the result
will, therefore be according 10 the
party strength on both sides.
