OHIO.

Columbus, Nov. 3.-The result in
Ohio is so close that it may require the
official count to determine the result,
especially on the political complexion
of the legislature. The republicans
and the democrats are both claiming
the state and the legislature with such
persistence that it will require the
official count at least to get one or the
other to concede defeat. Incomplete
returns indicate the election of the
republican state ticket by from 10, 200
to IL, 600, but the result on the legisla-
ture is so close that no definite figures
can be given on it now,
The democrats claim confidently a
majority in both branches of the legis-
lature, but give no figures on the num-
Der of state senators or representa-
tives. The republicans claim 81 repre-
sentatives and II senators sure, or II
votes on joint ballot, 73 being neces-
sary to elect a senaror. They also
claim all of the 12 representatives
whose counties have not been definite-
ly heard from and all of which are in
the doubtful list. Out of the five state
senators yet to hear from they claim
three, so that the result on the legis-
lature cannot be determined till all the
doubtful counties and districts are
heard from. Both sides are watching
the count very carefully, especially on
the legislative candidates that are in
doubt
The change from the result of last
year shows that the democrats have
gained largely in all of the cities ex-
cept in Cleveland. The gains in Gin
cinnati and Columbus were very large.
The republicans gained in the rural
districts, but most of the changes were
due to the stay-at-home vote in the
rural districts, which was fully Is per
cent.

up to Cohen's majority. Candidates on
the fusionist county ticket had ma jor-
tiles of from 9, 900 to upwards of 5000
