Cleveland, o, April 6.-(Special.) y
1880 q. mr.. e. McKissou, with a
considerable portion of the Republican
ticket, has been reelected mayorscf this
city sfter one of the bitterest battles
ever fought. The Republicans conferred
the fight with careless spirit gand con
fldent OF success, but before they were
through with it they had their plumage
slightly rufflsd and were7willing to ad-
init that there were other candidates in
the field. 1t is the opinion of Democrats
and Republicans alike that had the polls
been closed at noon, John Farley, the
Democratic nominee for mayor would
have been elected by 10000 or $4,000
plurality. At this time statements were
sent out by the board Of elections, and the
Republicans awoke to the fact that
they had been sleeping. Thev at once

fore Even under these conditions, how
ever, ttey were not sure Of victory, and
until midnight It was given out that
Fatley had beaten his young adversary,
but at that lltp hour more favorable Re-
publican returns came in and the younger
oandidSts began to gain with the result
that he won at last by about 9, 900 plur-
ality. Farley could have been elected, as
there was great sentiment against lic-
KissoD, but the silver focres could rot
support him. When his services were
needed last fall fer Bryan he found it
convenient to go fishing. Silver Demo.
rats and Populists are elated at Farley's
defeat as they prefer Republican to
Democrat who could not be found when
reeded.

The tourist generally knew. This
was in the late eighties, the palmy days
of the chill queens, when their fame
had spread to the larger northern cities.
Some very musical verse about them
had appeared in the magazines, and in
the newspaper sketches they were ideal

a place to sleep until he recovered his
normal condition and that he by some

however, were senoritas Of the genuine
