A BRILLIANT AUDIRNCE—HER COLD RECEPTION-- THE FIRST TOUCH OF GENIUS—HOW SHE COM- PLETED BER TRIUMPH. .A special to the Baltimore American trom New York says that a vast audience crowded Beoth’s Theater last night, the most notabdie in quality ever brought together by a dramatt: event, and the largest before which Sarah Bera- hardt has ever appeared. It included the 1 aders of fashion and society. the distinguished men of the professions, and it displayed a wealth and taste of adornment that made it as interesting a spectacle as apy presented during the evening, ie play was Adrienne Lecouv- retr. When Sarah Bernhardt appeared sue was not received with such a demonstration as one might reasonably have expected. In fact, to @ practiced attendant at our theaters, it seemed almost cold.

Pacheco Elected to Congress. OTHER CONGRESSIONAL RETURNS. MOREY LETTER AGAIN. Interesting Testimony To-day. “THE FRAUD CRY. Hancock Opposed To It. THE CRY OF- FRAUD. It_ Comes from Outside of New York—The KReasons Why There Is Nothing Im it—Yet Congress Will Be Called On—Gen. Hancock Op- posed To Iu [Special Dispateh to The Eeening Star.] New York, Noy. 9.—While up to this time the very suggestion of going bebind the New York returns and declaring this state for Han cock has been classed among the parts of ma- chinery of letting the democracy down easy, it has been discovered that the democrats are very Serious about the matter, aud are work: ing to that end with a vigor anknown during the canvass. After an tndQs- trious search fr information leading to the demceraue Intention in this matter, your cor- respondent, with inside secrets, finds— ist. That the pressure to open the contest for the vote of this state comes from lovall:iez out side the state, and principaily from southern states and matnly from Kentucky and Rich- mond; that dispatches and letters and outside democPatic newspapers have worked with great effect upon the democratic committees here, who had their locai difficulties to settle and feared the effect of the opposition the business men here would give to any further election ik. Second. That the dispute? question of the support of the solid southern democracy Is set- Ucd in this matter, or the committee here would not go on with this support. The Irving Hall Tammany Hall apd state democratic commit- tees have been diligently at. work, and claim to have made discoveries that astound those en- gaged in prosecution of the inquiries Into various kinds of allegedfraud. Among other things they have found a technical violation of jaw which Is a penal offence under the Statute: the illegal preparation of tickets. The Intent of the voter is not denied, but the law makes certain kinds of tickets only valid, and opens the penitentiary door to persons implicated in prep aring them otherwise. Third. ‘The national democratic committee has not yet_ taken hold of the matter, bat’ its executive committee meets here on Friday. At that meeting the reports from three other com- mittees now working the subject up, will pro- mise to furnish aflidavits to prove frauds in- volving over twenty thousand votes. Fourth. These committees will request the natienal committee to insist upon the appoint- ment of a congressional committee of investiga~ tion into the New York eleciton and make the very first business of both houses at the ap- proaching session. Fitth.—That they aro serious in the matter is now beyond doubt. The republicans have done nothing, believing up to this time, as Gen. Hancock is utterly op- posed to any scheme of the Kind and says s’ nothing would come of the talk; but now they propose to b> ready to demand that the same Class of InvesUgation shall proceed under their auspices in certain southern states and here also to prove democratic frauds; Three or four democratic —_ senators have already been beard from. Senator Dav of West Virginia, says he will not be a party th: it, but will oppose aby attempt to open the a fair, and the others say they will not thiak or giving tv countenance. A nervous FEELING OBTAINS HERE, and nothing but some pubite declaration trom enough democratic Congressmen to settle t matter now will avert the unsteadiness in bu: ness that 1s threatening to happen, and lat til the votes are coubted in January. NEW YORK PRESS VIEWS. About Garfield’s Administration tt Will be Stalwart—Ouly Repub- licaus in Office—A “World” Sensa- tier. [Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.] New York, Nov. 9—The Columbus corre- spondent of the Herald reports Governor Fos ter as saying that there is no basis whatever, 3 far as he knows, for the report that he is to into Garfleld’s cabinet, He says he 1s a cani date for the United States Senate. Governor Foster says the stories about a bar, between Garfield and General Grant and Messrs. Conk. ling and Simon Cameron in regard to cabinei places are mere fabrications, He says Garfield's nomination at Chicago wa3 made 10 such a way as to leave him absolutely free from all entang- ling alliances, and he is satisfied he bas not made a single promise to any living man. Gov- ernor Foster expresses the opinion that Gar- field's administration will be somewhat stat wart, and that be will not give a cavinei place to any southern man. The south did not give Garfleld a vote, and he has no debts to pay in that quarter Gov. Foster further believes that all of Ga; field's appointments will be made from the party that elected him. and that he will not make any specialty of civil service, He will asX first if the men are competent and honest, and then if they are republicans, The Tribune says “there was probably never a more fairly con- ducted election in New York city on the part of than that of last week wi republicans as. They registered and Paes their entire legal vote, and no more, ey did it by a superior organ- wation to any they have ever before possessed, So Speier by volunteer organizations of workers com of business men, and paid for by voluntary contributions of ‘merchants and manufacturers who felt their interests were at stake. The republican vote was per- ceptibly swelled by the desertion from demo- cratic ranks of numbers of business men.” The Tribune's icle upon this topic, headed * A Mischievous Agitation,” creates considerable exe'tement in this city, from the fact thatit treats ‘Ube talk of a fraud issue being made as serlou=. The Sun says Garfield is legally elected, and if he lives till larch . he will be inaugurated.
