With $4,000 Ballots Already
Tabulated, Governor Runs
Ahead of Ira B. Jones.
SECOND RACE LIKELY
IN SOUTH CAROLINA
Duncan, Third Candidate, Polls
Enough Strength to Prevent
Majority for Either Rival.

COLUMBIA, S. c., Aug. 2S.-The
latest reports of the actual vote in the
gubernatorial contest including all re-
turns up to 2:30 o'clock. show Governor
Cole l.. Blease 902 in the lead over
Judge Ira B. Jones, his chief opponent.
These returns include 1872 votes.
The three candidates stand as fol-
lows:
Blease, 51227 Jones, 56,275; John T.
Duncan. 1890.
1t is now practically certain that
there will be a second primary to de-
eide between Blease and Jones, as Dun
cans vote prevents either one from Sc
curing a clear majority. BIease will
likely have about 1900 plurality over
Jones when complete returns from yes
terdays contest are received.
Senator Ben r. Tillman is certain to
retain his seat in the United States
senate, the returns in hand insuring his
nomination over his two opponents. w

McLaurin for state trea surer. He swept
three -fourths of the state
In the other conests there was com
paratively little interest, except the To-
cal district races for congressman.
Excitement here and throughout the
state is intense
\ crowd of 10000 watched the bulle-
tins here last night and an equally
large throng paraded the streets of
Charleston, A near-riot was precip1-
tated in that city and the governor was
requested by long distance telephone to
call out the militia, but he refused to
do SO. Rumors here had it that the
ballot boxes had been rifed, but it is
now thought that this is untrue.
All predictions as to the counties
which each candidate would carry have
been wide of the mark, Jones counties
going for Blease and vice versa. The
complete returns will probably not be
known until late in the afternoon,
