BEGAN WITH A FIGHT
An Election Day Tragedy Occurs
at Frankfort, KY.
FATAL ENCOUNTER IN THE STREETS
Republicans and Democrats Come To-
gether-Revolvers Are Used-Two
Men lxilled-One Victim IL
the Sheriff.

Frankfort, Ky, Nov. 3.-Election day
was ushered i'll by bloody encounter
on the streets between republicans and
democrats at one a. NJ, resulting in the
death of three men and the wounding
of two or more. The difficulty began by
Frank Egbert (rep.) organizing party
to head off party of democrats under
the leadership of Ben Marshal, who, as
Egbert claimed, had taken number
of negroes to the country to prevent
their voting. Egbert, it is said, with his
party awaited Marshal's return and
fred on him from ambush, wounding
him seriously. Smith slightly and In
juring Alex Graham, negro. Deputy
Sheriff Deakins then organized
posse and attempted to arrest Egbert
and his party. The latter appeared on
the street brandishing their revolvers.
The two parties met and firing began.
Fifty shots or more We're fired and
Egbert was instantly killed, while
Deakins was mortally wounded, dying
at six o'clock in the morning. Howard
Glore, one of Egbert's men, was also
killed, and Walter Gains, negro, Sc
verely hurt. It is reported that he has
died.
Mayor Julian Tuesday organized
large body of special policemen in view
of the excitement, as he feared further
trouble at the polls, owing to bitter
feeling between the workers of the two
partiesand the friends of the men killed
and injured. The merest triHe of a
quarrel would be likely to result in a
resort to fire arms. The dead:
Frank Egbert. republican politician.
Howard Glore, republican member Of
Egbert's crowd.
Wounded: Charles Graham (colored), oc-
cupant of returning wagon; Walter Gains
(white). bystander; R. E. Deakins, demo-
cratic deputy sheriff, dying; John Smith,
driver of the democratic wagon In which
the negroes were hauled to the. country.
There is no confirmation of the rumor
that several negroes are dead and con.
cealed about town.

1880 Tuesday night: THE republican legis-
lative ticket Is running ten per cent. be-
hind the state ticket, and the state ticket
is losing in Cleveland an average Of p

the republican plurality to close margin
though 1t is probable that the republican
state and legislative tickets will be elect

that the republicans will carry Cuyahoga

Cincinnati, Nov. 3. = George B. Cox,
who had been conspicuous for years as
the republican boss of Cincinnati, has
issued card to the public, dated $3.50
p. M, in which he declares his purpose
to retire from political life and devote
his time and attention to his family and
friends. He says he has contemplated
this course for some months, but de-
layed it lest it might be construed as a
desertion of his party, but now he will
step down and out as a leader, or So
called boss, though he claims the priv
ilege of serving as a private in the
ranks of the republican party.
In conclusion he asserts tonce and for
all time" that he never made dollar
or any other sum of money from candi-
dates, office holders, or public en-
ployes, either in city, county, state or
national government, nor has he ever
derived any revenue from public con-
tracts or from dealing with them.

Kansas City, Nov. AT midnight Kan
sas returns have been received from but
half dozen outlying counties out of los
in which the elections were held. AS the
tickets were entirely local, 1t is impossi-

slower in coming in during the last cleo
lions, perhaps, than in Kansas. and this
year will not be an exception to the rule.

state, the republicans will probably elect

weather during the day was perfect, but
the registration had been light following
an apathetic campaign, and the vote polled
was only moderate. even for an off year.
The fusionist and republican managers
still make about the same claims as yes
terday the fusionists that they will elect
a majority Of the Is district judgeships and
about two-thirds of the 105 sets Of county
officers. The republicans claim at least
half of the judgeships and majority Of
the county officers.
