Sheffield, August S.-(Special.)- A total of SS4 votes were cast in this city. It will probably be Wednesday afternoon before the vote is counted and tabulated. In- dications are that Brandon will re- ceive fully 90 per cent of the vote cast in this city. Mcdowell was scratched by union labor voters here and at Tuscumbia. However, Mc-
 Dowell will receive approxin. ately 70 per cent of the vote in the coun- ty- Lee will carry the city and county for public service commits sioner. with the other place in
 doubt. West received the solid vote of labor for secretary of state, Blan received a heavy first and second choice vote at this box. The West vote going largely to him on the second choice. Ellis for treasurer, Moore for commissioner of agricul- ture. Chapman for auditor are picked as leaders in this county; for chief justice the race between Anderson and Lynne Is close.
 For Congress the best posted po- litical observers predict that Aimon will receive 75 per cent of the vote of the county. In this city and Tus- cumbia tho estimate is based on the fact that Almon supporters have carefully checked the voting II and that the estimate is conservative. Delegates for the Senate at large at this box are Bankhead. Bowie, Burr, Garber, Green, O'Neal, Pitts. Stan ley, White. Williams.
 For state senator at this box Mid dleton probably received a majority. The county ticket will probably be counted first. The race for probate judge, sheriff and circuit clerk are close and interest has been intense in these contests. It is generally believed that the race for probate judge is between Roulhac of this city and Tompkins, present incumbent. For sheriff the race seems to be be- tween Cobb, Keeton and Sparks.
