patch to Vice Chairman l.. D. Apsley
of Hudson, Mass, claiming for the Re-
publicans the election of 1873 members
of congress, more than a majority of

2lS Republicans. The dispatch fol-
lows:
~ have late information from all
states and close congressional districts,
and without single exception these re-
ports show large Republican gains, and
from the latest advices I figure upon
1888 districts that will elect Republicans
beyond any question and 35 districts in
which we have more than an even
chance to elect. confidently believe
that we will have a good working ma.
jority in the next house,
Senator Faulkner, the chairman of
the Democratic committee, will not
make a detailed prophecy. He says
that the committee feels confident from
its advices that the Democrats will
elect majority of members and does
not see how the complexion of the
house can be changed from Democratic
to Republican. He cannot understand
on what the Republicans base their as
sertions of control.

On Election Day-The Betting Favored
Morton Hard Fight Made For the
Control of the Lower House of Con-

tions.
NEW YORK, Nov. 6.-Chairman Hack
ett of the Rel ublican state committee
says nothing has occurred to change
the estimates of Republican success al
ready made public. On the other hand,
Chairman Thacher,at Democratic state
headquarters, gave out all estimate that
Morton would not have more than 49,
600 plurality above the Harlem river
and that to overcome this Hill would
have pluralities of over 10000 in this
city, at least 10000 i'll Kings county,
and from 1000 to 1900 i'll Richmond
county.

sides i'll the local ISSUE The supporters
Of the Committee of Seventy ticket

this reason, all estimates of figures on
the local result are worthless. Hugh
j. Grant, the Tammany candidate for
mayor, has issued statement i'll which
he asserts that "the Democrats of the
city of New York will give an over
whelming plurality for the state ticket
headed by David B. Hill, and the
county ticket headed by myself.
There was good deal Of heavy bet
ting at the ST. James and other up
town hotels and also in the stock ex-
change circles. The general odds We're
5 to 2 on Morton as against Hill, and
about 5 to i'll favor Of Strong against
Grant. Of course there was consider
able variation i'll the terms of the vari-
GUS wagers, but the odds noted were
about the average. There was little
