A REPUBLICAN PLURALITY OF THREE TO
FIVE ON JOINT BALLOT-THE STATE
TICKETS PLURALITY ABOUT 10000


tion In Ohio is not materially changed from
estimates telegraphed The Tribune last night.
The State will give Governor Bushnell and the
remainder Of the Republican State ticket over
fifteen thousand plurality Estimates from
few OF the counties had BEEN received early in
the evening. and when the official vote Is COM

materially from the above. The Democrats con

the assertion that Mr.. Hanna cannot secure the
election. This. 80 far as 1t applies TO the fu-

support Of the Republican members OF the

The latest info nation received by Chairman
Nash Of the Republican State Committee to-
night comes from the nal counties. and shows
conclusively that the Republican losses In the
State are confined exclusively to the larger Cit

at 10 O'Clock are that Governor Bushnells plu-
rality will exceed 2o.DN.
