Louisville, KY, Nov. 9.-No matter
what result the face Of the returns OF
Tuesdays election show, contest is
very likely to occur. Additional re-
turns received last night continue to
show republican gains, and, basing IN
estimate upon the normal complexion
OF the precincts still unreported, indi-
cate plurality Of 5000 or 5000 for w.
s. Taylor for governor. The belated
returns are mostly from mountain
counties which arc strongly republican.
The Goebel people cling to their claim
of plurality of 5000 in the state, these
figures being the estimate made by the
nominee himself last night. At repub-
lican headquarters in this city Tay'
lor's plurality is placed at 5000. In
neither case Is 1t possible to get the
figures upon which the claim Is based.

ty, which Tuesday night was figured

by the republican committee, the dem
ocrats conceding $4,000. Comparison

republican gains, although the vote is
much lighter than then. Several coun-

Monroe, have given good-sized repub-
