The Result in Ohio.

COLUMBUS, O., Nov. 4.-The canvass
of the official vote is in progress in most
Of the counties of the State to day.
Some of the disputed counties are very
close with pluralities on the legislative
candidates of less than 100. No furth.
or interest is taken in the State ticket
since the returns last night showed q
republican plurality in the State OF
over $4,000. Counting the two doubt
full representatives from Summit county
as democrats the House stands IS re.
publicans and 81 democrats. The only
State Senator in dispute is in the
Marion Logan district but the republi.
cans confidently claim that district and
that the Senate stands 10 democrats
and II republicans. This makes the
gislature consist offs republicans and
70 democrats. with majority of five on
join ballot for U. S. Senator. Chair.
man McConville still maintains that
the democrats elected a majority in the
legislature.
It is claimed that there is a move.
ment to form a combine between anti
Hanna mem ers of the legislature and
the democratic members to defeat Han
ma for the Senate, and that with no
more of margin than five or six on
joint ballot, enough republican mem.
bers can be found to 60 with the demo
cratic members to elect Gov. Bushnell
or some other republican than Mr..
Hanna Senator Hanna will have no
opposition for the caucus nomination
but it is said that efforts will be made
to keep enough republicans out of the
caucus to defeat him for election.
COLUMBUS, O., Nov. 4-Up to noon
the State committees had not changed
their respective claims. Their advices
from close counties indicated that pro-
tests were being filed to-day in antici
patton of contests for about dozen
seats in the legislature. The republican

GENERAL MILES, the commander o.
the army, has come back from Europe
so impressed with the benefits of mill
tary force in the conduct of govern
ment, that he recommends the tortih'
cation, and consequently the manning,
of the subtreasury at Chicago, to defend
it from what he must conceive to DC
the danger of an attack by the people
of that city. As half of those people
are foreigners, and in view of what took
place there not so long ago, the General
may not be so far wrong now as ne
would have been if his recommendation
had been made in former years.

AFTER A trial, a judge in Washing
ton Yesterday sentenced an old negro
man to the penitentiary for bigamy. To
people who know any thing at all about
negroes, such trials seem not only absurd
but absolutely unjust. The convicts in
such cases, and nearly all of the male
members of their race, have had dozeus,
rather than two wives, and the women,
as many husbands, and why now and
then one of them should be arrested
and punished, is what neither they nor
any body else familiar with them can
understand.

cent elections had gone last Tuesday
night, he expressed himself, according g
to a republican newspaper, "as wen We
pleased with the result" II Mr. NJ
Kinley can be we'll pleased with the
immense democratic majority IN New
York. with the redemption of Kentucky
with sixty odd thousand adverse MAORI
ty in Virginia, with large democratic
gains everyw here else, and with the re-

has cause to complain.

LATER DISPATCHES than those re
ceived up to the hour the Gazette went
to press yesterday evening, leave
the result of the elections in ONO
and Maryland in doubt, that can
only be entirely removed by the
official count in those States.
In view of Mr.. Hanna's methods in
Ohio aud of the frauds in Maryland, TO
which the republicans of that State say
those previously practiced by the demo-
Gratis there, were "infancies," even if the
democrats be counted out in both, the
fact that they ran the republicans to
the throat latch should afford them
much solace.
Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1897-11-04

LATE dispatches this evening make
it pretty certain that Mr.. Hanna has
been elected in Ohio and Mr.. German
DEBATED in Maryland. That it should
be so is sad to relate, especially in the
case of the latter, and is deeply re-
GREETED by every good and true demo-
crat throughout the entire limits OF the
country. Money struck him down in
his own State, but he is held in high
honor not only by ell the real demo
Gratis there, but by all of them in every
other State of the Union.

VIRGINIA, by precept and exemple,
shows the people on the opposite side
of the Potomac how they should vote;
but they heed neither, and go their
own way, which, having already led
them into the mire, will soon stall them
in the mud. Virginia wants no high
tariff, pension fraud, civil service
humbug, gold monometallism and ne
gro office holders, and therefore, in
stead of forty, she has given sixty
thousand democratic majority.

New York Election.

NEW YORK, Nov. Returns on
members of the lower house of the State
Legislature are complete from all but
eight districts which are in New York
and Kings counties. These, show the
election of 10 republicans, 81 democrats
and citizens union majority of 16
alould the remaining eight districts be
all carried by the democrats nominee
which is not probable the republicans
would still have majority of eight.

THAT THERE is a new Maryland, as
we'll as new South, is proved by the
fact that though the defeat OF the in
famous "force" bill in the U. S. Senate
was due chiefly to the wise, discreet

man, the people of that State, those
living in the lower portion of which
would certainly have suffered as much
from that bill as thosein Virginia, voted
against him at last Tuesdays election.

A DIapATCH from Princeton says that
when the Southern boys at the college
there, on the night of the election, cell
ebrated the victory of the New York
democrats, "Mr. Cleveland looked
grieved." Why, of course ne did. He
had recently availed himself of an in
vitation to address those students upon
an educational subject, to advocate the
defeat of that democracy, and it was
only natural, for him, to be grieved at
the result.

THAT PACIFIC TREAsURE.-The
British flagship Imperieuse returned to
Victoria. B. c., yesterday from Cocos
Island, in the Pacific Ocean, about 500
miles west of Panama. It went to that
island for the purpose of searching for
the treasure, supposed to be worth
about SS0,000,0OO, which has long
been reported TO have been burr;
ed there in the early part of this
century, and the hiding place OF
which man named Hartford de-.
clares he discovered about two years
ago. The officers of the flagship say
that Harford's stories are no dream,
and that the treasure actually exists.
Their belief in the story is shown by
the fact thsS they have left q guard of
marines on the Island under the COM
mand of lieutenant, and one of the
smaller vessels of the squadron
will return Immediately to the is-
land. One story afiost is that the 1m.
perieuse has on board about &15, 0OO, 600
IN gold and iewelry, and that the vessel
which is about to start for Cocos Island will
bring back the balance of the treasure which
consists of silver. This treasure WAS taken to
Cocos Island from the Pacific coast of Ameri-
ca during the troublous days of the revolu-
tionary wars in the second decade Of this
century, when the Spanish colonies won their
independence from the mother country
lspy of the persons TO whom the treasure
belonged we're killed o. died during the wars,
including the agents who buried it on the
lonely Cocos rock, and it hiss never 5aen re-
coEered.

TIE republicans and boilers of
Baltimore succeeded in carrying that
city by their money and methods, but
the human nature in the majority of
the poor, silly dupes they were enabled
by those means to gull, was too well
developed to permit them to vote for
the civil service humbug amendment,
which, therefore, was defeated by a
large majority.

The salaries of the officials he actually
appoints aggregate not less than $3.50,
900 year. No Governor OF an Ameri-
can State Yields power anything like
as great.
Late returns from Ohio show that the
republicans will have a majority of FIVE
to seven in the Legislature on joint bal
lot. The democrats will have ma
jority of two in the senate and the re-
publicsns of seven in the House. In
these calculations all the fusionists from
Hamilton county are counted as demo.
cratic. If Senator Weight, of Cincin-
natl, republican elected on the fusion
ticket, should vote with the republi-
cans on the organization of the Senate,
or any measure before it, that body
would be tie, with Lieutenant Gov
ernor Jones, republican, having the de-
Gliding vote. The close vote in the
legislature has caused the starting of a
rumor that movement is on foot to
run Governor Bushnell against Senator
Hanna for the senatorsbip.
NEW JERSEY.
1t requires no very deep analysis OF
Tuesdays vote in New Jersey to show
that the State is likely to return next
year to the democratic fold, where it
stood for so many years. Completed
returns from the twenty one counties
show that the democrats elected five
out of the six senators, and twenty
three out of the sixty assemblymen:
The new Senate will therefore stand
fourteen republicans to seven demo
Gratis, as against eighteen republicans
and three democrats in the present
body.
Later returns from the other States
show increased democratic gains, bur
make no changes in the results as given
yesterday.

BISHOP GIBSON.

Yesterday morning, at the Church OF
the Holy Trinity, Richmond, the sol.
emn and beautiful service was perform.
ed which bestowed upon Rev. Robert
Atkinson Gibson the high Office left
vacant by the death of the lamented
Bishop John B. Newton. The church
was filled with one of the largest audi.
ences that ever gathered within lis
walls, and the exercises were of sim
gularly impressive character. The
music of the "Te Deum" was compos.
ed by Bishop Gibson's organist in Gin.
cinnati, and dedicated to this occasion.
Within the rail were Bishops White,
Peterkin, of West Virginia; Randolph,
of Southern Virginia; Vincent, OF Ohio;
Thompson, of Mississippi, and Revs.
J. W. Dare, of Ashland; Bergman
Green and P. P. Phillips, of Alexan-
, dria; DR.. Packard, Angus Crawford and
G. E. Grammer, of the Theological
Seminary; Everard Meade, William NJ.
Clarke and ]. J. Gravatt.
At II o'clock Right Rev. Bishop
Whittle entered from the vestry, and
accompanied by Bishop Peterkip, Of
of the. altar. The vested choir then
entered from the side entrance singing
the professional, "Rejoice, Rejoice"
While singing the visiting vestrymen
were shown to seats, followed by the
visiting cergymen. The Bishop elect
took seat in front in the centre Of the
aisle.
Right Rev. Bishop Thompson, OF
Mississippi, preached the conservation
sermon, and at its conclusion delivered
the charge to the bishop elect, he
standing up in front of the pulpit.
The order of Presiding Bishop of the
Protestant Episcopal Church of the
United States, Right Rev. Bishop John
Williams, Of Connecticut, directed that
Rev. Il. A. Gibson. D. D., Coadjutor
Bishop-elect of Virginia be consecrated.
The credentials, on permission from the
standing committees Of the various
dioceses of the Episcopal Church, were
read.
When it came TO the "laying on of
hands," Bishops Peterkin and Randolph
led Bishop Whittle (who is almost
blind) down to where the bishop-elect
was kneeling, and the scene was very
affecting one.
Besides the bishops, thirty-three
ministers took part in the ceremonies.
The Sunday school room of Holy
Trinity Church was opened to the
public last plight from to IL o'clock TO
meet Bishop Coadjutor Gibson. Mr..
l.. NJ. Blackford, of the Episcopal High
School, delivered an address of well
come. Mr.. Blackford made very ap.
propriate little speech, in which he re.
ferred concisely to Dr. Gioson's record
as boy, as a soldier in the Confeder-
acy, as a student at college, as min
lister and pastor, and welcomed him to
the hearts of the people of the diocese.
To this the bishop coadjutor replied in
a terse but Informal manner, saying
that he was indeed thankful to be home
again.
Bishop Gibson is a son of the late DR..
Churchill Gibson, of Petersburg, ard
his first charge was in Richmond. He
was elected at called session OF the
courcil held in Richmond several
months ago. Bishop Gibson will reside

The third day of the trial of Joseph

spiracy against the chastity Of Mrs.

ture divorce evidence by securing the
