Columbus, o., Nov. 6.-One Of the
hottest campaigns in the history OF
Ohio closed Saturday night with roar
of emphatic oratory and in a haze OF
uncertainty as to the outcome.

the state which were so far apart as tc
add to the uncertainty rather than to

about $4,000 plurality, while Chairman
CARRIER of the Democratic committee
announced that his extremely conserva

he would have to remain for several
