KENTUCKY.

LEXINGTON, Ky, Nov. 6-Charman
Roberts OF the republican committee at 10
O'Clock tonight says official returns from
100 counties and unofficial returns from
the remaining nineteen counties give Nc
Kinley 475 plurality. At an earlier hour
Chairman johnson of the democratic COM
mittee said he was not ready to Congratu-
late Chairman Roberts. He believed errors
had been made against Bryan in the re-
turns sufficient to turn the scale in his Favor
on the official count.
LOUISVILLE KY, Nov. 6.-Both parties
are still claiming the state. The condition
is such now that the official count must de-
eide and then the state canvassing board
may have to canvass the official returns
In many counties the total vote is held back
only plurality figures being sent in, and
charges of ballot box tampering fly thick
and fast. The most interesting development
is the probability that the entire vote of
owen county will be thrown out by the
state canvassing board as a result OF direct
violation of the election law in that county
Tuesday. democratic primary was held
with the general election, the democratic
election officers serving also as the primary
officers. The Bryan plurality in this county
is 2,239 and If it is thrown out it means
the election of Colonel w. G.. =. Breckin-
ridge in the Seventh district by 200 or over
Breckenridge win contest the seat of his
opponent, Settle. dem. basing his contest
on the owen county situation, where he al
leges gross frauds were committed. His
representatives are already at work collect
ing evidence.
At 10 o'clock this morning the silver men
loudly claimed the state, basing their con-
tention on mistakes in the returns pub
lished from the First, Third, Seventh, Tenth
and Eleventh districts. They state that
exclusive of the eleventh district mistakes
in several counties change the result several
hundred in favor of Bryan. From Clay
county letter from their county chairman
this morning stated that the vote was: Me
Kinlsy, 1,669; Bryan, 3S5, or a Mckinley
plurality of 9Si, instead of the published
plurality ofs1 400 From Knox county the
silver chairman reports the Mckinley plu-
rality 1,l35, a difference in Bryans favor
of ten votes The secretary of the demo-
cratic committee however, comedies that
If the Mckinley plurality in the Eleventh
district exceeds $4,000 Bryan loses the
state. The republicans contend that this
plurality in the Eleventh district will easily
exceed $4,000 basing their claim on the fact
that they have Leslie county to hear from
and also three precincts, two in Clay and
one in Letcher. They concede the silver
claim to the other missing county, Knott, in
this estimate.
CINCINNATI. Nov. G-The Times-Star

Kentucky, which give a republican plurality
of S4l, and with complete returns from all
counties of Kentucky announces that Nc
Kinley has plurality of 676.

RALEIGH. N. c., Nov. 6.-The populists

republicans their candidates in the Second,
Eighth and Ninth districts and the demo-
Gratis their man in the Fifth district Rus

Mckinley carries Vance by ia and Randolph

Neither of the three parties in this state
will have a majority in the next legislature
which elects a successor to Senator Pritch-
ard. 1t will be nearly equally divided be-
tween the democrats. republicans and popu-
lists and a lively fight on the senatorial
question is expected. The populist leaders
declare that Senator Pritchards successor
must be silver man. In this they will be
seconded by the democrats and 1t now seems
probable that the successful candidate will
be acceptable to both these parties. Chair
man Holton of the republican state com
mttee comedies the electoral vote of the

Princeton an advantage.
The rumor reached here tonight that the
game was off, and instantly caused wild
excitement. 1t seems that Princeton was
awaiting word from Harvard as to how she

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 6-The official re-
turns from the counties which are now
coming in rapidly do not change the un-
official figures materially. McKinley's plu-
raIity will stand near 10000. In some coun-
ties the unofficial plurality has been in
creased by the official count, while In others
1t has been decreased The state ticket in
many counties has run right along with the
electoral ticket. but the official count will
probably show that 1t is something like
5000 behind the electoral ticket. Mount,

ticket everywhere. He appears to have

TORONTO, Ont, Nov. 6.-Until the Can

which was one of the first institutions to
raise the discount rate, was one of the first
to lower it. How many banks will follow
this example it is impossible to say, but IL

American money, as they did before the FREQ

WILMINGTON, Del, Nov. 6-At | o'clock
this afternoon the canvassing board is still
in session counting the vote of Newcastle
county. They were al work in the court
house all night surrounded constantly by a
bowling mob The impression had gone
forth that the democratic inspectors in

publican for sheriff, and this caused repub-
licans to swear vengeance in the event of
the alleged plan being carried into effect.
Democrats We're betting that James b.
Toman, Flynn's opponent, would have forty
majority. A quick count of the sheriff
county tables has shown that Flynn, not
withstanding the changes, was still 1874
ahead. on the strength of this information
all democratic money offered on Toman
was freely taken. Sheriff Gills, in order
to be in readiness to suppress any out
break. has sworn in 100 deputies. The
