WOMEN WATCHERS.
Two of Them Tell of Their Experience
at the Polls.

at IlG EO1lBs
New York. Nov. 6.-In almost every as
sembly district arrests were made for
various violations of the election laws,
although there was not nearly so many
as in former years. Many of the arrests
were due TO overzealousness on both sides,
and more were discharged than were held
Justice Barrett sat in the supreme court
hearing cases and the police courts were
busy all day
Women watchers at the polls were an
innovation this year. In most cases the
women were treated with courtesy. Mrs.
Stinson Smith and Mrs. Emma Beckwith
Of the Woman's anti-Tammany organiza-
ton, claim to have been insulted by
drunken men. Mrs. Smith said: I'VE
started out at daybreak. At first we vis-
tied the Italian districts where we have

tween One Hundred and Thirteenth and

me over. / said to him: How dare you,

have also lost several congressman in the
New York city districts.
Brooklyn and Kings county also go
back on the democrats and Morton proba-
bly, carries the city of churches by 5000.
There is also a probability that the repub-
licans elect four, and possibly all, of the
five congressman to represent the Brook
lyn district.
In Pennsylvania the returns make a ma
jority of 100000 for the republican state
ticket among the probabilities.
In West Virginia the republicans claim
to have elected the entire congressional
delegation of five, William L. Wilson of
tariff bill fame. being one of the candi-
dates probably defeated.
First reports from Massachusetts point
to congressional gains by the republicans.
In Georgia all the democratic candidates
are elected, thus throwing a very large
pail of cold water over the populist hopes
John Gray Evans the Tillmanite candi-
date for governor, carries South Carolina
by about 10000. DR.. Pope charges fraud
and asserts that he has majority.
In Florida the two democratic candi-
dates for congress win in a gallop.
The most authentic figures at hand in

1876 members of the lower House Of con-
gress, the democrats 156 and the populists
b, The republicans claim to have elected
eighteen more members than this esti-
mate allows, but Chairman Faulkner dis
putes this claim.
In the present House there are 214

New York, Nov. 6.-There was an omi-

the cry that went round the hall. The
strains Of Boyne's band were insufficient
to keep the people in good humor.
Police Justice Ryan. who was one Of

bad. 1T looks like a republican land

going to be showed under"
Nicholas Donohoe made an address. He
said he could not believe that two such
"thorough-souled" democrats as Senator
Hill and ex-Mayor Grant could be beaten
in the state and city of New York
BY this time the news had spread that
Hill and Grant were defeated and abso-
lutte silence prevailed in the hall. Mr..
Grain to break the monotony, introduced
John p. McGoldrick, secretary Of the Tam
many Hall organization, and he met with a
great ovation. You have heard me an

Just before leaving for the executive man
sion, Gov. Flower said:
1.-THE elections show that tidal wave of
republicanism has swept the country from
Maine to California. Our party was
dilatory in repeating the silver bill and tar
if law. Business has been disorganized
and when the tariff bill was passed no one
seemed willing to father it. The result
shows that the business man have voted
the republican ticket in order to give their
interests rest. The result in New York
city and Brooklyn shows that the people
want pure and better government for
those cities. The result shows that Sena-
tor Iills vote and Mr.. Wheeler's combined
would lack over 100000 of carrying the
