THE FLORIDA ELECTION.
Australian Ballot Generally Dis
Iikcd-Count Exceedingly Slow,

JACKSONVILLE. FLA, October g.
The election in Florida to-day passed Off
quietly but the meagre returns so far
received indicate that very light vote
was cast. The election was held under
the Australian-ballot law, and reports
show that Democrats Republicans. and
Populists alike are dissatisfied with IL.
Only very meagre returns are being re-
ceived, as the count IS exceedingly SLOW
owing to the length OF the ballot. The OFF,
cial returns will not be In until tomorrow
or next day, but estimates tonight place
tho Democratic majority at not over % 900.
and it may fall considerably below that
figure.
There were three complete State tickets
in the field-Democratic Republican, and
Populst-and the Prohibitionists had a
candidate for Governor. IL was the first
time the Republicans had had a ticket IN
the field since 1883. The lightness Of the
vote is attributed 10 the new election law
and TO the recent storm which swept the
State.
The Republicans will probably have four
and the Populists six members of the
Legislature out of total OF 100. This
Legislature elects q successor to United
States Senator Call, and it is not likely
that he will be returned although a sill
yer Democrat will undoubtedly be chosen.

here tonight, both in mass-meeting and
as a club. The first and chief work OF
the mass-meeting was the adoption OF
resolution requesting the resignation or
Mr.. Charles Bugg as chairman of the
party for the town. That resolution Is
self-explanatory, and reads as follows:
Whereas Mr. Charles Bugg was elected
chairman OF the Democratic organization
for the town OF Farinvllle before the
meeting Of the Chicago convention; and
whereas since that convention adopted
the platform Of the Democratic party Mr..
Bugg has declared that he cannot con-
scientiously support the platform Of the
nominee of the convention; and whereas
he is now out OF harmony with the great
majority Of the Democratic voters OF
Farrnville: therefore, be il
Resolved, That Mr.. Bugg be requested
to resign the office Of chairman and give
place TO some one TO be elected who is in
accord with the majority. and who Will
devote himself 20 securing the success Of
the nominees Of the Chicago convention.
which Mr.. Bugg says he cannot consist
emily support, though a Democrat.
Mr.. Bugg resigned after making q
lengthy statement. throwing the entire
responsibility of removal upon those who
placed him in office.
DR.. r. NJ. Bdgood was then elected O.
fiji the vacancy occasioned by Mr.. Bugs
resignation.
AS soon as the mass-meeting adjourned
the Bryan and Sewall and Epes Club wa
called to order by Colonel j. p. Fit
gerald. 1t was in this meeting that grea
enthusiasm was stirred.
The following was unanimously adopte
by the club, although there were a few
present who deprecated the necessity call
ing it forth:
whereas Charles r. OFerrall the Gov
ernor OF Virginia, elected 10 office by the
suffrage OF the Democratic party, has
aligned himself with our common enc
mics, the Republicans. through the bolt
ers' party, be II
Resolved. That this club deprecates the
Governors action and abhors HIS wanton
ingratitude to the party which has so re-
peatedly honored him with office.
Be IL further resolved, That Charles y.
O'Ferrall be requested by this club TO re-
sign the position which he now holds I'M

THE REGISTRATION YESTERDAY.
Nearly 1000 Names Enrolled-Boit
ers and Eepubs sfiiI nj Work

Yesterday was the second day OF the
new registration, and IL passed off
quietly at oil the polling-plaees. One or
two slight disturbances were caused by
the political heat invading the precincts.
but no one was hurt. Pretty nearly
as many people were registered as on the
previous day. and IL Is estimated that
almost half OF the voting strength Of the
city had been reregistered. The boilers
and Republicans had their forces still at
work. At several OF the polling-piaces
the registrars refused TO allow the bolter
and Republican representatives TO come
In, and take a record of the names as
they were enrolled. This caused some
dissension among the paid workers and
the registrars. but the City Electoral
Board had been called in to settle similar
disputes on Monday, and had decided that
the registrars had absolute authority in
this respect.
The changing of the places where regis
trars are TO be found without authority
from the City Council has been called
into question by some OF the Boltocrats.
but it is not thought that much hinges
upon this, as ample notice was given Of
such changes.
