ed at 6 o'clock this morning and will be
kept open until 4 o'clock this afternoon.

little betting that has been done on the
result in the city has been at odds Of 2
to in favor of Tammany Hall. The

about 2 to in favor of the republicans
carrying the State.
MARYLAND.
BALTIMORE, Md, Nov. 5.-Mary-
land is white-bot today. The republic
cans, spurred on by the fact that the
house of their opponents is divided
against itself are hoping to elect Gov
ernor for the first time in the history
of the party, and to secure majority
in the Legislature which. would give
them o. S. Senator in pace of Senator
Gibson. The Cleveland democrats
have denounced Senator German more
STRONGLY than have the republicans.
Three of the four daily democratic
newspapers of Baltimore have led the
revolt against Mr.. German. The Sen
ator has been the only live issue Of the
campaign; all other principles were
aide-tracked months ago. A very
heavy vote was cast here before noon.
There have been but few disturbances
reported. John Smith, democrat,
was shot and slightly wounded by
Horace E. Van Tassell, republican.

ceded a small majority. Coxey, for

vote is being polled in this city to-day.

publican candidate for lieutenant gov
ernor, will not carry his own ward in
this city.

creased populist vote, but it does not
appear here.
CINCINNATI, Nov. ga phenomen-
ally large vote was polled in the early
hours of the. day. The A. P. A. is in

directed against john Hagerty, demo-
cratic candidate for county auditor.
NEW JERSEY.
TRENTON, N. j., Nov. 5.-The reports
received here indicate that the election
is progressing quietly in the twenty
counties of New Jersey. Both the dem
ocratic and the republican vote is re-
ported to be coming out strong and that
the contest is being fought on party
lines. The republicans claim that
Griggs will carry the State by at least
10000 and that the republicans will
elect 40 of the 60 assemblymen as we'll
as five of the seven senator's. The dem
ocrats claim that McGill will surely
carry the State by from 5000 to 5000
and that 80 of the 60 assemblymen will
be democrats.
Dies MONIES, Ia, Nov. 5.-The Iowa
election is proceeding more quietly
than usual. The apathy of the voters
is almost without precedent and the

majority and the republicans will pro-
b ,bly control both branches of the legis-
l.ture.

day votes for one justice OF the supreme

tee claims the election by $1,000 to

hope by the aid of democratic and re-
publican strength to elect the judge by
5000.

throughout the State is very pleasant

generally concede the reelection of
Governor Greenhalge. The size of the
majority is the only subject of dispute.
PENNSYLVANIA.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov5.-The election
is progressing quietly, but little interest
is being manifested and light vote is
the result. An estimate this afternoon

adelphia at about $4,000.
