doubtful points, Mr.. Manley gave

Full returns today leave the
situation as it was yesterday. We

We have carried every northern
state but Colorado, Nevada and
Montana with ten votes. We have
carried Kentucky, Maryland,
Delaware and West Virginia.
AS we predicted during the en-.
tire campaign they are attempt
ing to rob US of the electoral
votes in Kentuckey under the
power vi the Goebei law. ii they
succeed we shall have 295 cleo
toral votes. Our candidate for
governor wires that we carried
Kentucky for the electoral ticket
and elected him by over 1000
majority. The time has come
when the American people ought
to insist at whatever coat that
the votes shall be counted as thew
were honestly cast"

grams inqulring as to the result
In Nebraska, received the follow

TOO CLOSE TO CLAIM.
Nebraska Returns Show Leaning
to the Republicans.

Omaha, Neb., Nov. 8.-The
Evening Bee prints table on
the national ticket giving COM
plete returns from 55 counties,
and on ten other counties, with
one precinct missing from each,
out of tOtai of 80 counties, Civ
ing Mckinley 90,22S; Bryan, 3d.
1876. The same counties in 1896
gave Mckinley 85,476; Bryan
96,547. This is a net gain for Nc
Kinley of l4,803. Bryan's plu.
ralty in 1895 was 1880. With
this ratio Of increase throughout
the missing counties Mckinley
will have. a plurality of about
5000 in the state. There were
10000 to $4,000 more votes polIed
In the state than in 1896 and the
fusionists claim these are mostly
from the cities and towns, which
have already been heard from
and that the counties yet unre-
ported will give Bryan q small
plurality in the state.
The state ticket is running close
to the vote On president and it
may require the official count to-
decide on governor and other
state Offices. Both sides claim
four out of the six congressman.
The Legislature is closer than any
other ticket. The Douglas county
delegation will be split in about
half between fuslonIsts and Re-
publicans. The latest returns
indicate that neither side will
have more than five or six. ma
iority on a joint ballot.
Omaha, Nov. 8-Complete re-
turns from two-thirds Of the coun-
ties in Nebraska and scattering
returns from the balance show
Mckinley has carried Nebraska q
by plurality Of at least 1000.
An equal number of returns on
the state ticket indicate that
Nebraska has reelected Gov.
Poynter and the entire state
ticket by pluralities ranging from
500 to l 800 over the Republicans,
the governor being high man.
If the balance of the state shall
show the same proportion of gain
and loss, Poynter's election is
certain and the counties to be
heard from being mostly in the
western part of the state, 1t is
fair to presume this is the case.
The legislature will likely be
decided by Douglass county, in
which it will take the official
count to determine the vote. The
World Herald (Dem.) claims the
lieutenant governor will cast the
deciding vote in the upper house
and that the lower iB evenly di.
vidsd with two places in doubt.

1t was at President Hadley's re-
ception that the following bit of con-
versation was overheard: DR.. Dwight,
turning to a prominent young alumnus
of Yale, after greeting him with Hell
10, classmate," said something about
his own very recent return from the
country, adding afterward: by the
way, l owe one of the New Haven
newspapers a grudge. 1t printed an
item about me some time ago to this
effect: President Theodore Dwight
has just returned from his summer
home at Norfolk Now, my name is
Timothy, and my summer home is at
Litchfield." "Well, that is one of the
things, at all events that can be very
easily rectified, doctor" said the alum
nus pleasantly. YES" replied the
doctor, with droll smile, they might
say. and l think it would be satisfac-
tory to me, that Prof Alfred Hadley
has Just been elected president OF an
institution at Waterbury. New

CHAPTER V.-(Continued.)

AS Rob, dressed In his picturesque
he thought he had never seen so many
Misunderstanding men. They would
propel the large fiat boats to the
schooner's side, make them fast and
jump aboard. Then the black boat
meA and the crew Of the BLACK Cat"
would be busy for a time in trans
ferring from the hold Of the schooner
to the boats the packages and cases
and casks of the contraband cargo.
Captain Torrevo was here, there and
everywhere, giving loud commands in
a language that Rob did not under
stand, and which would scarcely be I'M
derstood by any one whose tongue
was limited to the precise language of
any one country.
Captain Torrevo passed Rob several
times without paying him any atten-
ton. What was Rob's great surprise,
then, when the captain Of the BLACK
Cat" suddenly turned on him with a
frightful oath and struck him with a
ropes end.
Twill you do nothing?" roared Cap
tain Torrevo, in what appeared a most
frightful rage. "Will you stand there,
and me trying to get unloaded? Get to
work there, or III kick you into the
water!"
Rob was thunderstruck and terribly
frightened.
"I'll do anything" he cried. Don't
strike me! Tell me what you-want me
to do"
Get into that boat. Do your share
of the work! Help carry the stuff to
the cave"
AS Rob, without trying to soften the
terrific wrath of his seemingly cruel
master, turned to obey, he saw, stand
ing on the shore, large, black horse.
Upon this horse was seated a man of
apparently fifty-five years Of age. This

| mans face that he seemed to make the
others gentle by comparison.
Hurry up, there!" he shouted in
English, fiourishing his whip. 1--WE ara
being watched every day now. There
may be soldiers here any minute. Get
the stuff ashore in a hurry"
The men strained harder, and soon
the fiat nose Of the boat was showed up
on the sand. The men leaped out, each
one giving a quick look at the master,
as II expecting every moment a cut
with the heavy whip.
"Hey, Torrevo, who is this?" he
shouted, pointing to Rob.
THAT fool of nephew of mine"
shouted back the captain Of the BLACK
Cat" "He is no good, but he would
make a trip with me. Whip him, if
he is lazy"
Rob remembered what Torrevo had
said about his appearance as the
nephew Of the captain Of Gel Cato
Negro" and wondered If he, as Rob
Cleverdale, had any more to fear than
he was getting as Torrevo's nephew. 1t
seemed to be the object Of Torrevo to
make him out as stupid and worthless
as possible, and to give the English
man the impression that he hated his
nephew.
The men on the boat now began to
pick up their burdens, and poor Rob,
not one-fifth as strong as one Of these
fellows, did the same. He unfortunate
ly picked up package that was too
heavy for him, and staggered with it
right before the tall, Satanic individ-
ual, whom all so palpably feared.
In an instant there was swish, and
the Englishman's whip came down on
Robs shoulders.
"Get on with you'll" he said. eff you
can't do better than that, what good
are your"

would bring him another blow, shut

| man was tall, and had heavy beard.
He was dressed in well-ftting riding
, suit. with high boots. There was
look of masterful cruelty about him
that made Rob SILVER
Rob noticed that the blacks, and the
crew of the BLACK Cat" as well, shot
glances of fear toward the calm and
powerful looking man on horseback.
Poor Rob did not know what to do
first. All around him were grooming
and chattering blacks, and the cruel,
sharp words of Torrevo were ringing
in his ears.
take it! Take it," said one Of the
laborers to him, holding out pack
age. Rob tried to take it from the
fellow and put it with others, as he
saw the men around him doing, but 1t
was too heavy. He let it fall, and
there was the sound of breaking glass.
Immediately the captain of the BLACK
Cat" let out a shrill yell Of rage, and
Ieaped into the boat. He gave Rob
cut across the shoulders and even on
his face with the ropes end he carried.
Rob cried out with pain, but Torrevo
cursed and struck him again.
Cub! Good for nothing" he
screamed, seemingly beside himself
with rage. "Will you break the cap
tain's bottles? Take that for your
clumsiness."
The schooner was near enough to
shore for the man on horseback to hear
and see what was going on. He turned
a calm, impassive face toward the boat.
Its that goodfor-nothing nephew
of mine, Senior Captain" sang out Tor
revo. "He would go on a voyage with
me. and what good is he, except to
steal and lie and break things? I'll
break him, Come, take this and see
IL you can break itr'
Rob tremblingly took the package
from the dark hands that held it out
to him, and succeeded in getting 1t in
place without a mishap.
In this way, with much roaring and
cursing by Torrevo, the boat was load
ed, and then started toward the shore.
The tall man on the horse now got
down on the ground, and stood with
heavy whip in his hand and ma
levolent expression on his face. This
man was evidently an Englishman or
an American. Rob had thought the
dark, evil faces on the BLACK Cat"
dreadful to look at. but therei was
something 50 utterly cruel 4 this

Money talks, but little scare is apt
to shut it up tight.
