EDMUNDS, secretary and ex- eentive officer of the republican Congres- sional coramittee, says he has received no news of any ivterest relative to the election to-morrow. He preserves his usual placidity of demeanor, aud thinks there is no doubt of the election of Hayes and Wheeler. The de. partments are almost entirely deserted, Most of the clerks having gone home to vote. Among those remaining there is the greatest anxiety lo hear the latest news In reference to the result to-rnorrow. Tne feeling is one of suspense, the impression being that the election will be very close. THE BULGARIAN SUFEERERS.—Aristarchi Bey, Turkish mi rin this city, hasre ceived by mail Constantinople the fol- lowing information: “The extraordinary commission recently sent to Bulgaria by the Sublice Porte was instructed to ascertain the truth relating to facts which had been rted, 10 punish Lhe authors thereof in an exemplary maverer, and to give tne full sat! faction due to the sufferers. Moreover imperial goveroment has lately placed at Ube disposal of that commission we sum of £15,000 48 @ first installment to relieve the most pressing wants of sufferers of the in- surrection. Measures have also been taken for rebuilding, as promptly as possible, the burned villages. Independently of the aid of every Kiud which the government has giveo for that purpose, timber and other material bave been furnisbed by both Chris- Usps acd Musselmen, residents in the vicin- ity.” THE POLITICAL TaLK AnouT Towx— At the headquarters of the Democratic Con- gressional Committee there is @ red-white heat of enthusiasm, inspired by the reports | received from Various sections of the coun. ty. Mr. Harvey, in cbarge of the commit- lee, said to day to the representative of THE STAR, “Tilden will be elected as surely as you are sianding in this room.” In this opinion he is endorsed solidiy by bis col- leagues of the committee. There 1s a good deal of side betting outside Of the professional gambling circles. In the majority of instances the odds are given to Tilden in the proportion of ten to ulne on the general result.

The Navy department has received a dl patch from New York sta:ing that the the Franklin is in sight. Nothing 1s ex- pected from her at the department uatil she arrives at the navy-yard. The story of Tweed’s escape and mode of capture bas afforded such a flue field for «verage newspaper romacce that the true story, based upon official documeats of tke State department, possesses an unusual in- terest, for it sets at rest forever absurd cbarges or claims of credit that have grown up cut of this captur ‘weed escaped from New York io @ small schooner, and was janded in @ small boat from this schooner in &n obseure port ten miles south of Santiago ce Cuba. The vessel that brought Tweed from New York merely put ito this small port for the purposeof lauding Tweed and a young m&n who accompanied him. After tne two were placed on shore the small boat returned to tbe schooner, when she headed about and stood out to sea again. A Span- ish fisherman witnessed the secret landing of these two men in tbis obscure quarter, and at once suspected them of being men coming with aid and comfort for the Cuban insurgents. The suspicions of the fisherman were still farther in- creased by theee two men approacuing him, and ofering hima large sum of money to carry them over to Santiago de Cuba, wher: they wished to go. He complied witu the requeet, pocketed thelr money, and then loyally turned them over to the Spanish au- thorities as suspicious characters who had Janded upon the island in such @ secret map- her that their presence certainly demanded anexpianation. Tweed and bis companion asserted that they were traveling for their health, put teld so mavy conflicting stories as to still further accumulate suspicion against them. Tweed also exhibited pass- [a made out @t the State department at ‘ashipgton for bimseif, under the name of Secor, and Hunt, for his companion. Tweed said he was a citizen of Fiovida, and was very indignan’ his arrest. Notwithstand- ing his explanations and his passports he was Ee in the custody of the admiral of the Spanish fleet at Santiago de Cuba, it being thonght that, as Tweed was captured while traveling, that he belonged as a mat- ter of right to the naval authorities. Toe American consul at Santiago de Cubs, Al- frea N. Young, reported all the facts of the capture of these American citizens to Consul Geseal Hall at Havana. Hall &t once reported ee telegraph to tne State department here ali of the facts in the case ‘as they bad been sent tohim. The State de- partment people at once overhaule. the re- cerds here and found that the passports referred to were regular, and had been obd- Jalned 80 as the records could show in all due form. It then ocenrred to Secretary Fish, who was familiar with the many sen- fational stories that had been published in New York concerning Tweed’s escape. that these two men, Secor aud Hunt, might be the missing ones. He at once seat on & pho- tograph of Tweed to Hall to have Secor, if pessible, identified. Tots, of course, occu- pied some time, but Tweed was meanwhile kept In custody. Promptly upon receipt of Tweed’s photograph Hail dispatcued it to Bantisgo ce Cuba, where Young at once identified Tweed. Hall then telegraphed to Fish that the man calling himself Secor was Tweed, and asked for instructions. Fish at once sent back word to the consul general to see ibe Captain General, Jovellar, and rep- resent to him & fuil statement of the case, and request that the Spanish government deliver him up to the United States au- thorities. To this Jovellar replied that it would give him much pleasure to ceneede 80 reasouable @ request. He at Once issued an order addressed Lo the admiral Of the Spanish fleet, requesting him to turn over Tweed to the consul general at Ha- van, who was to hold him in custody until a United States vessel could be sent for bim. Fish recounted to Robeson what he had done, and the latter directed a war vessel lying at Port Royal, 8. C., to go to Havana for Tweed. But meanwhile it — that Tweed had strong friends in Cuba, who aided him in again making his escape. An in fuential resident of Santiago de Cuba, not & Spaniard or an American, whose name !s Wwitbheld by the State Department, was in- strumental in persuading the Spanish ad- miral to release Tweed — his parole, to visit Santiagode Cuba. Of course he vio- jated his parole at once aud again escaped. Consul Young at once found out which way he bad gone; that he had taken passage upon the Carmen, @ Spanish trading bark, bound for Vigo, Spain. Hall at Havana reported this escape to Joveilar, who was very indignant at this escape. He at once communicated by cable with thegovernment at Macrid, and it L prev tou responded by saying thata careful watch would be kept the Carmen at Vigo, and that upon her landing there her two passengers would be arrested and locked up to await the call for them by the American authorities. This was in accordance with Jovellar’s demand, and was regarded here as satisfactory, as it made Tweed’s capture a mere question of time. The very day that the news arrived here of the arrival of the Carmen at Vigo and Tweed’s arrest, information was re- ceived at the Navy department that tne U. 8. steamer Frankiin was at Gibraltar, upon the eve of departing upon a homeward cruise. Instructions were at once cabled to her officers to proceed to Vigo and take ‘Tweed upon board and bring him along. It is supposed that Tweed’s companion was his oepbew, although that point is of such sec- ondary importance to tue State department poorly information concerning him has been sought. NOT THE FRANKLIN. A later dispatch was received at the Navy Department from New York, stating the vessel sighted this morning, and supposed to be the yrenklin, proved to be the school. ship St. Mary’s. othing bas as yet been heard of the Franklin. The Steamship Franklin. NovEMBER 5, 1876. Extitor Evening Star:—An article, comment- ing upon the condition of the U.S. 8.

Powers of U S. Marshals. | A CONFLicr OF AUTHORITY IN NORTH CAROLINA. J B. Hil}, United States marshal of North Caroli: wing issued an order to his dep- uties that they were not subject to arrest by any state authority while on duty, and advising them to resist any such attempt, the question was submitted to a number of eminent lawyers by Gen. Cox, chairman of the democratic committee, and they have = the opinion that there is ‘no such freedom of exemption from arrest secured to one United States officer while xg oe office under the Federal government.” Gen. Cox thereupon issued an address to the ublic, In which he says all illegal orders ssued by the deputy marshals “are voll, and no man is io yea to obey them,” but advising the oom 6 to observe sn preme mod- eration on election day, and obey the laws of the Jand. ALSO IN GEORGTA. United States Marshal Smitn on Saturday notified the chief of police at Atlanta, G that he will bave exciusive control of the polls to-morrow, and that the police force and all other persons nad no authority. Be Lberefore requests them to keep away from the polls. The cbief of police says this action conflicts with the orders of the police @om- missioners, and tne latter have ordered the police to Interven@ against infraction of | municipal and state laws.

The distribution of federa! troops in South Carolina will be completed today. four companies will be assigned in squad at poll: g places in Charleston and along the coast, out the buik of Gen Rager’s force will occupy the upper counties. Another 8 by G Gov. Tilden reviewed a mloCTatiC pro: cession in Brooklyn on Friday evening last, @od was subsequently entertatned by a num- ber of his political friends. During the eve- ping he made # speech, saying that he re- grees his cause as the cause of the people. ‘he question is, said the governor, whe! we shall have @ united, harmonious govern. mebt apd country, representing the people of all politics, sections and races—wnel Wwe shall join our friends and carry forward the great principles to which we have devoted ourr@lves. 1 have seen told thatif f should happen to be elected that I should havegreat trouble with the south. There may be diffi- culties in bringing back people to taeadmin. istration which they desire, bat I do not prehend that there will be any difficulty with the south. He went on to say that in bis opinion a democratic victory would bring prosperity to the country, and said that for twenty years the peopie had been contending against public plunderers. He believed that the goveroment would be ta@ved Dot only from the wrong-doers, but from the weak men who go with the wrong- doers, who have to be saved in spite of themselves and cannot be depended upon to maintain the right. What the Democratic National Com- mittee Claims, The Democratic National committee has issued anotner address,in which they s&y that ‘From the information in the j= sion of this committee, based upon careful eatimates received from the various states, we are justified in claiming as sure for the cause of reform, embodied in the national democratic ticket, 200 electoral votes—a clear majority of the whole number. In this catimate we do not iaclude the electoral vote of South Carolina or Louisiara, which, if accorded an election free from milita: interference, will undoubtedly cast 15 addi- Uonal votes for the cause of good govern- ment. Besides these voles we have every reason lo expeet 71 votes from states re- garded as doubtful, which, if cast for Tilden and Hendricks, will give them over two. thirds of the electoral college. In this esti- mate we do not include the state of Onio, from which, however, we have assurances of victory. On the other baud, our estimate conecdes to the repudiican office-holdert every state in which, by their power of pat ropage and their reckless vie of illegal ex- | igen they have avy reasonable ground for claimsug #uccess.”” The Republican National Comm| om Tilden’s War Claims Letter. The republican national committee has also issued an address, which is mainly io reference to Governor Tilden’ ter on the rebel war claims. They say: is remark- abie actionon the part of Mr. Tilden and some of bis southern allies this committee does not hesitate to characterize as a virtual admission of the unsoundness of the dem cratic party with reference to the rebel w: claims, which unsoundness is to be utterly destructive of Mr. Tilden’s cuauces of elec tion. unless new promises and desperate ex- pedients can avert the otherwise loevitable result. The promise to veto the claims comes only after the hope of their payment and the policy of intimidation and murder have, he believes, made the southern states sure for the democratic electoral ticket. « * * Mr. Tilden’s position is that @ cor- stitutiopal amendment is necessary to pro- tect the country against the corruptions in- cident to @ President desirous of a second term, but thata promise beture election to veto bills which his party is committed to oe isa suificient barrier against twenty. Aes bundred miiilons of dollars of rebel claims.” The Need for bag im Sonth Caro. mam. A telegram from Governor Chamberlain bas been received by the chairman of the national fy egg committee, inclosing a statement from Judge Wiggin, the presiding judge of the circuit which embraces the counties of Aiken and Barnwell, specially included in Governor Chamberlain’s a~ mation ard that of the President of the United States. Judge Wiggin has jast visited the actual scenes of the domestic violence and insurrection, and speaks from i observation and examiuation. He writes to tbe Governor as follow: In my judgment the condition of affairs in certain portions of Aiken and Barnwell counties demanded just such action as your Excellency has taken. Domestic violence, instigated doubdt- less from political motives, certainly pre- vailed in those counties, and toan txlent beyond the control of the civil authorities, and I have nodoubt that the stationing of troops there has prevented the Killing of hundreds of unarmed and inoffensive col- ored citizens.” Governor Chamberiain says: “7 present this testimony to the country as that of the only judge of this state who has apy knowledge, persoval or official, of facts stated by me in justification of my recent | 1 actton.’ Ho Interference im South t Colom! to sppear on the fourth Monday in Ni ber.

There was much bad feellog displayed by crowds on the sidewalks, aod boulders are said to have been hurled into the ranks, injuring some men in the proces- sion. An attack was made on the og lican headquarters of the 18th ward, and the building was gutted. A man was shot bya negro, who was promptly arrestei by the lice and taken to a station house, fol- lowed by &@ large crowd with threats of lynching bim. The riot alarm was sounded a@nd several thousand persons collected about the station house. Mayor Johnson addressed the crowd, advising that the pris oner be left in charge of the police. Tais bail a quieting effect, and the crowd dispersed at a late hour. Libelling Candidates. The New York ess of Saturday says: This morning District Attorney Bri itton, of Brooklyn, addressed @ letter to Chief of Police Campbell, calling attention to a practice which has more or less prevaiied of it publisbing and circulating libels candidates for office just preceding an elec- practice which the district attorney ter!zes ag not only illegal but highly criminal @nd detrimental to the public inter- ests and morals. He requests the chief of police to direct the police force to promptly arrest and take before the nearest magistrate any person who may be found at the ferry entrances or elsewhere distributing eb libels, and report the fact of such arrest at the district attorney’s office for prosecution. Earopean Events. PRINCE BISMAKCK’S BRAIN SOFTENING. 2 jJetter from Berlin received in London states that Prince Bismarck’s ner vous system has been seriously impaired, and his condition causes great anxiety to his family and immediate friends who have been apprised of the circumstance. His phy- siclans, who are in constant attendance, nave peremptorily ordered that all newspa- pers, pamphlets, &c., likely to cause undue excitement shall be kept from him, and, in fact, tbat only documents of the most extra- ordinary character, absolutely requiring hie personal attention, shall be permitted to reach him. His physicians fear softening of tbe brain—an affi¢tion with which he is threatened and may at any time be pros- traicd. A feeling of grave anxiety is mani- fest In court circles, and the forced retire- ment of Bismarck from the government cour Clls is feared. CONFERENCE AT CONSTANTINOPLE.
