LOUISVILLE, KY, Nov. 4-The fol-
lowing bulletin was issued by Chairman
Roberts tonight at IL o'clock:
The Republican State Committee
claims Kentucky by 1000 majority. 1t
wired its county chairmen to-day for COM
plete corrected footings by counties and
received returns from all but five counties
in The mountain section. These unofficial
returns were classified by districts with
this result:
The Democrats will go to the Eleventh
District, the Republican Gibraltar. with
lo.6oo majority in their favor. This dis
trict gave Governor Bradley little over
l2,OOO majority last year and has been
counted on all along for Is, 600 this wear.
Returns from over half the counties of
the district already assures considera bly
over 14,000 Republican majority. upon
which basis the committee is justified in
claiming the State by approxim atelv
1000 majority.
The official count will be made Thurs
day and Friday. The sudden transfer of
Kentucky from the sure Mckinney to the
doubtful column early this morning was
caused by simultaneous report from a
tier OF counties in the west end of the
State, where the Populists and free silver
Democrats have full sway, which gave
surprisingly large Democratic majorities

He appreciated the loyalty of his
friends and thanked them heartily for
their support.
John Eastman, of w C fiat. said he
was not a delegate to the convention
but desired to enter a protest against
such hign handed proceedings as he
had just witnessed in the county con
vention. He thought the chairman
and the secretary of the county central
committee had exceeded their author
ity in the matter of the jackson pre-
cinct primary. He had no doubt, he
said, but that the delegates elected
by the Wilson convention would re-
ceive justice at the hands of the state
central committee.
Rev. j. w. Hancher asked the privi-
lege of the delegates of saying a few
words in reference to the action of the
Gardner convention and the arbitrary
ruling of the temporary officers. He
deprecated the necessity of the bolt
but after a vain endeavor to secure
justice at the hands of the other organ
ization it was the only faction they could
take consistent with honor and fair
ness. He referred to some of the
fragrant violations of parliamentary rules
by the presiding officer of the Gardner
convention, stated that he had taken
complete memoranda of these rulings
and would see that they were brought
before the state convention, where
justice, he thought, would be meted
out.

expressed themselves quite freely on
the subject under discussion, after
