ATLANTA, Ca, Oct. THE polls
o'clock, and from bulletins received the
indications are that Atl1insons majori-
ty will be not less than $4,000.
Hon. a. S. Clay, chairman of the
Democratic state committee, says:
1T is impossible, at this hour to
predict with any degree of certainty
the size of the Democratic majority.
The count will be slow, and it will
probably be midnight before we can
get any more satisfactory information
than is contained in the kilograms re-
ceived by me and by Democratic lead
erS in almost every county in the state.
Almost without exception they report
that the result is satisfactory and that
seven out Of every ten counties re-
port an increase over the vote of four
years ago. AT this hour it looks as if
the majority will not be less than 80
000''
Hon. John D. Cunningham, chairman
of the Populist state committee, does
not concede the state as yet, but says
that he prefers to await the official re-
turns.
THE ticket is long one" said he,
land the count will be slow, and it is
my opinion that when the result is an

was a quiet vote, and there was little
demonstration anywhere. Even if it
should develop that our ticket is not
elected, it will be found that the other
has won by a mere scratch, though I
do not by any means concede the re-
suit"
The vote in Atlanta is very much
lighter than expected. The registra-
vote viii probably not exceed 1000 A.
kinsons majority in this county will
probably be about LOCO Reports from
Macon indicate a majority of about
LOCO in that county, while reports
from Savannah and Augusta indicate
a majority of about 5000 in each of
these counties The state can be re-
ported as absolutely Democratic by
more than 10000, with the probability
of the majority exceeding 10000 At
lyinson's majority two years ago was
1000.
8 a. m.-Later returns bear out the
earlier estimate that Atkinson's ma
jority will approximate 10000

PARIS, Oct. "A cold, drizzling rain
fell throughout the forenoon, but de-
spite the discomfort of being out OF
doors thousands of people assembled in
the vicinity of the Russian embassy,
hoping to catch glimpse Of the imper-
ial visitors.
President Faure, With Nadine Faure
and Mile. Faure drove to the Russian
embassy at 8 O'Clock tlais morning, for
the purpose of accompanying the car
and czarina in their sightseeing tour
of the city.
The car expressed the thanks of him
self and the czarina for the courtesy
shown to them by the president and his
family, and invited NJ. Faure TO oc-
cupy a seat in his landau. The party
started on their trip half an hour be-

The czarina wore a. gray dress and

LONDON, Oct. THE Central
News is authority for the state
ment that Lord Rosebery has writ
ten a letter to Mr.. Thomas Edward
Ellis, member of parliament for
Merrionethshire, the first whip of
the Liberals, resigning the leader
ship of the party. The reason given
for elis lordship's resignation is
that he disagrees with Mr. Glad
stone and other leading Liberals re-
garding the proper policy to be
adopted on the eastern question.
Lord Rosebery's letter is dated
at his seat, Dalmeny Park, Linlith-
gowshire, October 6. In the COM
munication, his lordship says:
1.-The recent course of events
makes it necessary to clear the air
L find myself in apparent differ
ences with a considerable mass of
the Liberal party on the eastern
question, and in some conflict with
the opinion of Mr.. Gladstone, who
must necessarily always exercise
matchless authority with the
party, while scarcely from any
quarter do 1 receive explicit sup
port. This situation, except as re-
CARDS Mr.. Gladstone, is not alto
gether new, but in saying this
complain of on one, and regret only
that 1 should appear to divide the
energies and try the faith Of the
Liberals. This question, however,
is above and beyond personal con-
siderations, and when I speak,
which do this week, I must speak
my mind, without reference to
party. Under these circumstances,
it is best for the party and for my
self that 1 speak not as a leader,
but as a free man. Consequently,
1 beg to notify you that the leader
ship of the party, so far as 1 am
concerned, is vacant and that re-
sumo my liberty of action. L can
only feel the deepest gratitude and
regret at parting from you and
those who like you have given me
such loyal cooperation under cir
cumstances so difficult

this year, is attributable to several COM
plications. In the first place his OPP

hibition prejudice, Atkinson having made
his campaign in favor of local option, and
Wright having been nominated by Popu-
lists on a platform Of enforced state pro-
hibition.
Reports from every section of the
state show largely increased Democratic
majorities over the vote Of two years
ago. Fulton county, in which Atlanta is
located, viii give Atkinson LOO majority

district will be nearly 5000.
The Democratic majority in Richmond

That was the rock upon which the

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Oct. 7.-Of-
fetal returns from the state election

the length of the ballot, not being

very light vote and a. heavy Demo-

Same counties in 1892 gave Mitchell
