1t WAS more apparent to-day than last
night that the Democrats lost heavily
In some of the white counties and
gained largely in counties having negro
majorities. The Republicans and gold
Democrats allege fraud, and they will
certainly contest In the Second, Third,

Conferences have been going on all

a big legal fight will be inaugurated

once to cooperate in this State next
year, and make the election laws the
