NIGHT CLERK FOUND DEAD.
Heart Trouble Evidently Carried or
w. G. Hamilton.

William G. Hamilton, night clerk at the
Enterprise Hotel was found dead in bed
last night at o'clock. He had retired in
the morning, and when he did not appear at
his usual time to take charge of the office at
night, other employees of the hotel entered
his room. Hamilton had evidently been
dead for some time. The coroner was called
and ordered that an inquest be held this
morning The supposition was that Hamil-
ton died of heart disease. He had COM
planned of pain at his heart. He was sixty
years old. He came to this city several
years ago from New York, his home. He
was an engineer and was at one time en-
ployed by the Indianapolis Gas Company.
He had been at the Enterprise Hotel a year
and half. 1t was not known whether or
not he had family.

over 200 Families Changed Their Res
idence Yesterday.


Moving time came at an off season this
year, to judge by the evidences displayed
throughout the sections of the city where
renters are many and property owners are
few. What made it the more noticeable
was the fact that it seemingly came all to-
gether. All over the south and west sides
of the city moving vans could be seen backed
up in front of doors in great numbers,
either taking out or putting in household
effects. One prominent transfer firm was
asked to what extent they had been called
on to move families from one house to an
other, and furnished the information that
there had been more moving done yesterday
than in any other single day during the
year.
The reason for it was that the law COM
pels man to have lived in the ward in
which he votes sixty days before election
and in the precinct thirty days. Many fam
lilies have no doubt been anxious to move
for several weeks. but were deferred from
doing so because thereby one or more MEM
bers of the family would have been dis
qualified from voting yesterday. Therefore
the moving came as an epidemic and gen
orally as soon as the male members of the
families had cast their votes the process be-
gan.
1t was estimated by different transfer men
yesterday that over two hundred families
had changed residences during the day.

He Watched Senator Fairbanks Cast
His Vote.

His Vote.
The voters of the seventh precinct, second
ward, or part of them, at least, had dis
tinguished witness TO their voting yesterday
morning in Lord Herschell, of England,
president of the joint international commits
sion. The distinguished Briton walked down
to Morton Place stables to see Senator Fair
banks cast his vote in the good American
way. Inspector r. B. Fisher invited Lord
Herschen within the room, and the invita-
ton was accepted. Senator Fairbanks en-
tered in his regular turn and was sand
WICKED between two Of his constituents and
took his pink white and yellow ballots.
Senator Fairbanks expressed the fear that
his head would protrude above the curtain
hanging in front of the booth, and the JOKE
for a moment furnished laugh for the
election officials.
Lord Herschell asked many questions in
regard to the voting and took great IN
terest in the proceeding. He remained only
until Senator Fairbanks had deposited his
ballot. and then the two distinguished men
left the voting place and walked back to
the senator's residence together. NO oDJec-
ton whatever was made to the presence or
Lord Herschell in the voting place, although
1t was contrary to law, but all the ofhcers
of the precinct united in extending to him
the courtesy.

At Democratic Committee Room.

At the rooms of the Democratic county
committee, between 5 and o'clock, last
evening, the leaders were strangely missing
and no one was left but clerks and volun-
teer assistants. No one was willing to ven
ture an opinion as to the result, but great
satisfaction was expressed over the success
in getting out the Democratic vote. The
clerks were busy as bees storing away the
books and documents and in putting under
lock and key everything of portable ma
ture in anticipation of the rush to hear the
returns. Desks were moved out and piled
one on the other in order to make room for
the expected host of the faithful. Tables
were so arranged as to be convenient for
the workers, and odds and ends were carted
away. The entrance of very drunk man
was the only thing to mar the beauty of the
scene He objected to going in good order,
and one of the vigorous retainers saw that
he left in disorder Tired and weary with
their work, the clerks stretched their arms
and spoke only OF their joy that it was so

Hinh school PuniIs Yote.

There was an election at the High School
yesterday in the civil government classes in
Miss Domains room. The pupils were given
full instructions as to how to vote, and were
provided with the regular ballots. The cleo
ton was Overwhelmingly Republican. Both
boys and girls voted In their classes they
have been taught all of the leading ques-
tics, and various recognized standards CT
textbooks are used The Monetary Com
mission has provided pamphlets and circu-
lars stating it's side in full, so that the pu-
pills of the High School are better pre-
pared to vote than many persons who cast
the ballot yesterday.

IN THE ELEVENTH.
Eleventh ward the voting b

In the Eleventh ward the voting by pre-
cincts was uniformly slow until late in the
evening, when the closing of the factories
brought in a number of workingmen's votes
Throughout the day the apathy displayed
by the voters of both sides had a depres-
sing effect on the election officers who in
answer to queries as to the strength of the
vote cast would invariably say: 1--WE ex-
pected the workingmen would turn out at
noon and vote as they always have DONE
but so far there has been little done by
these men," Committeeman Joseph in re-
ferring to the light vote cast by both par
ties in the Eleventh ward said: 1T is true
that the failure of the workingmen in these
factories around here, to turn out at noon,
has been a disappointment all around, but
you see this ward is strongly Democratic
any way and the more votes that are not
cast the better showing we will make here
for we can we'll afford to lose ten votes
while the Democrats are losing one num-
dred by the voters staying away Every
thing has gone smoothly here all day, and
not a fight or wrangle has broken the
monotony. We expect there Will be many
votes cast when the shops close at O'Clock,
and while we hope to get some of them, it
is hardly likely that We will be benentted
by them to any extent. Our hope is in the
Democrats staying away as they seem to
be doing now
EARLY IN THE TWELFTH
Up to a late hour yesterday afternoon the
vote in the Twelfth ward was light and
rather favorable to the Democrats, as most
of the Republicans had not voted up to that
time. Everything remained quiet throughout
the day and not once were the services of
the police in demand anywhere. The Demo-
Gratis were out early and registered a strong
vote before noon. The Republicans, however,
came in with struggling votes which re-
assured the party officials, who had been
dumfounded by me early inundation OF
Democratic votes None of the Republican
officials would say that they expected Re
publican majority in that ward. Probably
the heaviest proportion of votes was cast
In the third, fourth, fifth and sixth pre-
cincts during the day.
HIGNITE ON BULLDOZING.
In some of the precincts in the Fourteenth
ward the vote on both sides was slow in
getting in, but in most instances the Re-
publicans seemed TO be having better sue
cess than the other side. In one precinct
at a quarter after o'clock the Republicans
were only short eleven votes according to
the poll books. At the same hour at least

THE FILTH AND SIXTH.

The Fifth ward, which is very large in
point of territory, turned out a fair-sized
vote on both sides of the river. At some Of
the polls the voters began to gather at day
break. There was little challenging during
the day and altogether it was a very quiet
time throughout the ward. Politicians were
unable to tell whether or not there was
much scratching"
In some of the precincts of the Sixth
ward the colored vote was heavy, and it is
said there was q good deal of scratching"
During the early part of the day the vote
was light, but later both sides rallied their
forces.
DULL IN THE SEVENTH.
The balloting in the Seventh ward was
steady all day, as it always is, and there
were no clashes between Republicans and
Democrats. A duller election day, it was
said, had never been experienced by any
of the old voters of the ward. The wagons
and carriages were not used much. Those
who live in the ward are. for the most part.
business men, and they arranged their du-
ties so they were able TO vote compare
lively early in the day. The long watch of
the officials grew so monotonous that any
diversion brought amusement. a very

voice, which dutifully trotted at its own
