THE ELECTIONS TUESDAY. Hayes’ 2.500, A midnight dispatea from Colunbus Returns come in yery slowly, and it is ye! impossible to give the accurate figures o: the result, but both republican and demo- ciatic state committees agree that the has not gone republican over 10,009. most significant news is an official dispatc from Ross county showing that Allea bas carried the county by giving a re- publican gain of 40: 8 * republi- can s€uator, repres treasurer, ani judge.

A later dispatch says:—A most remark able change in the politteal jeling haz oe- curred this evening. At noon the democrats conceded the state to the republicans by from 10,000 to 15,000 majority, but this th sidérably changed their figures, steadily eut- ting down Haves peospssuve majority. The cemocratic committee have been figuring on the resait, and now claim that Hayes, if elected at all, will not have over 2,500 ma- jority. This result, the committee claim, is reached from figures recelvei from their pri- vate correspondents in fifty-three counties, and thirty-five counties to hear from. Thompson, democratic chairman, says they yet hope to prove Alien’s election by @ sinai) mejority, This news bas spread [ike wild- fire, and men who were confident to-day and jubilant over having won considerable sums of money on Hayes’ election now fill the re- publicaa committee rooms, anxiously in- quiring tor news. Percontra: A.T. Wikoff, chairman of the republican committee, ad- mits his news wili cutdown Hayes’ pros- pective majority, but claims he has no news atallio Lear with the news at the demo- cratic rooms. Hedeclares he cannot see how itis possible to overcome Hayes’ majority. Republican figures give the republicans ni-¢ majority in the bouse, not counting four con- sidered doubtful, and three majority in the sepate, with four members yet in doubt. A later revision of the republican figures give Hayes a net gain of 6,431 in fifty-six counties. On the other hand, the democra- Ue figures claim that Hayes will not have over 2,000 majority. Revised figures on the vote in Hamiltoa county give Hayes 49 majority. A private dispateh from Colum. bus says tbe chairman of the democratic central committee concedes the state to the republicans by two to three thousand ma- jority. The ctiairman of the republican e-n- tral committee says returns considered ra. liable from fifty-four counties show a net republican gain of over 5,000. obn G. Thompson, chairman of the demo- cratic central committee, says that Le has returns from sixty-six counties and esti- mates of the other twenty-two. This includes the returns of 6,000 republican majority in Cuyahoga and 1,100 in Hamilton. He regard< both these returns ‘as too large, but, taking them fos granted to be true, says it cannot give Hayes more than 2,500 majority. Wi- koff. of the republican committee, says he has yet to hear from lourteen counties con- sidered republican and ten democratic, and isunable to give defloite figures. Returas from fifty seven counties now in show a net republican gain of 7,768. IOWA. Specials to the Dubuque Times from nearly all the counties in northern and central fowa show considerable republican gains for Kirk- ‘wood over majorities last year, when the republican candidate for secretary of stave bad 29,000 majority. This would indicate his election Ki from 35,000 to 40,000.
