Ban- man, @ prominent democrat of St. Louls, who 1s well-known in Washington as an employe of the House of Representatives. Mr. Bauman spent the last three months in New York city, principally about the national democratic headquarters. To a STAR reporter to-day he said: “I have been with the Tammany leaders, and have been intimately connected with thera for the last two or three months. Atfirst they were indifferent; but I teil you they are now enthusiastic for the ticket, and ‘Tammany will cast her solid vote for Cleveland. Iwas in “Jack” Adams’ (Representative Adams’) district the night he was renomfnated, and I never saw more enthusiasm manifested, not for Adams alone, but for the national ticket, " ‘There will be a unton’ democratic county and city ticket In New York before the end of next week. Tammany will inake room for several county democrats, and all the factions will unite on a local ticket. Butler's vole isdwindling down and wil not amount to much. Democrats are betting in New York city on from 80,000 to 100,000 majority for Cleveland in that state, and can’t get thelr money covered.” ———— Going Home to Vote. SOME GOVSRNMENT RMPLOYES GOING ALREADY— HOP&EUL DEPARTMENT REPUBLICANS. The employes in the departments who live in distant states have already begun to lea ye for thelr homes, in order to be there in time for the Novem- ber election.

Representative Hopkins, of Pennsylvapla, said last evening to a Star reporter: “My Congres- sional district has a republican majority, but I be- lieve I will be re-elected.

C., October 17. If a southern state casts an electoral vote for the republican candidates it will unquestionably be North Carolina. Tax Sram correspondent, after a studied examination of the political situation tn this state, 1s not prepared to predict that Mr. Bisine will recetve its electoral vote, but he does mean to say that the republicans, or coalitionists, have » good Nghting chance of carrying the state next: month. In 1876 the present Senator, Vance, was elected governor by not quite 14,000 majority: in 189 the Present governor, Jarvis, was chosen by 7,500 Majority; in 18%’ Congressman-at-Large Bennett pulled through by only 443 votes In excess of those cast for Dockery, republican. So, you see, if the same ratio of reduction of the democratic majority 4s experienced at the next election, the repnb- leans will capture the state by about 6,000 Majority. AU Ube last election—1882— a very full vote was polled. ‘The repubi made a gain of 12,000 tn the white western counties, but lost, through de- fection and the active opposition of U.S. Marshal Keogh, 5,000 in the colored eastern counties. If Dockery had succeeded cell eee’ the full party strength In the east, he would have been elected by 4,500 tnajority. ‘THE CANDIDATES. Congressman York, the coalition candidate for governor, isa very sharp, shrewd politician; and, while not as able a man as Gen. Scales, the demo- cratic candidate, he does not suffer by comparison with him on the stump. Gen. Scalesis_ very popu- lar In his party,and wii doubtless poll a lange vous, Whether he or Yori will be elected wil grvatly de Rend upon York's own district. ‘Two years ago Dr. ork, then a State senator, ran as an independent candidate for Congress against the sitting member, Major W. M. Robbins, one of the ablest democrats: in the state. Robbins’ majority in 1880 was in the neighborhood of 4,000; yet York was elected, and in spite of tne fact hat aregular republlean, who re- ceived 1,000 votes, was in the Geld. Of course York ‘was elected largely by democratic votes, and If the class of men who voted for him for Conzress vote for him for governor he will assuredly be the next chlet magistrate of Unis state. The democrats as sert, however, that when he ran for Congress, he Tan a8 an independent democrat; that now that he has come out flat-footed for Blaine and endorses the republican platform enurely, he will not get the votes of ten in one hundred of those democrats Who voted for him two years ago. ‘There may be more truth than poetry in the assertion, oF vice versa; but Lknow from ob-ervation that York 1s popular with the small farmers throughout the State, and this class 18 clamoring for une enact ment of a better “landlord and tenant act.” York Promises 1t to them with much earnestness, aud Styles himself “the poor man’s friend.” ‘Any oné can compute from the above figures what a small percentage of the democratic vote, Out Of a cast Vote Of Over 220,000, IU Wl require to elect York by a very heaithy majority; provided, aiways, that he polls the full republican strength! ‘There are Just now no Indications that be will ot 1030, It is possible that the coalltionists may retura four Congressmen to the next Congress. At pres ent there 18 only one republican from this state, and he is a colored tan. - The colored voters tu his district outnumber the whites by nearly 12,000. That 1s the ouly district In the state where the col- ored voters are in the majority. ass in the frst, Turner in the 1ourth and Edwards in tue fifth, all coalitionists, stand a chance of election. ‘The | latter two were democrats up to Uns year, It has been ascertained to-day Uhat efforts are to. be made to carry the te for Blaine, This was decided upon at the republican southern headquar- ters, located at Nashville, yesterday, after the re- turns of the Gio election were In. ‘The republicans, 1am told, Untnk that possibly Cleveland and Hen- dricks may carry thelr own states, as Tilden and Hendricks did in 1876. Should tis spprepension be realized and the south remained solid the dem. ocratic ticket would be elected. ‘The fity-one voles of New York and Indixna added to the 153 of the solid south would be turee more than would be required to elect. It Blaine should secure North Carolina's eleven electoral votes, the republicans could give the democrats New York, Indiana, Con- necticut and the balance of the south and still elect Biaine, the vole standing: Cleveland 1%, Bieine 20. "Itisa tempting bait, and there was Searcely Wariner political wearther exverienced tn. Oblo tian will be felt here for the next Uwe Weeks. BLAINE’S CHANCES. Nowa word as to Mr. Bluine’s chances. It is positively asserted at the coalition headquarters In this city that hundreds of “protection democrats? tn the manufacturing towns of Durham, Wins Sharlotte, Greensboro’ pnd other places will the democratic state ticket, but will vote for the Blaine electors—some openly, many secretly. They claim to have authoritative, trustwortuy informa- tion on this polnt and confidentiy assert that thls vote will reach over 5,000. If this be true Blalne’s. chances of carrying Ue state are by no means hopeless, On the other hand, the democrats stoutly deny any such probability, Dut 1t 18 plain that they are very apprehensive about the matter. They in- tend to die gatne, however, If die Uncy must, aud they have to-day’ putevery avatlable speaker of ablilty in the state on the stump. The array of democratic speakers now in the field 1s double that of any oiber year in the state's history. This fact: alone fully shows Uhat they realize their peril. ‘There will undoubtedly be a free ballot and a fair count in this te. Little fraud has ever been practised here. ‘The shogun policy and the count- out process have hever worked well in North Carolina, and, now that there are so many white ex-democrats co-operating with Une republicans tn. every county in the state, such measures will hardly be resorted to this year, let matters become ever so desperate, Tue SYNop oF Bavtitoxs.—The Presbyterian synod of Baltimore, which 1s composed of four presbyteries, convened in anuual session in Ha- gersiown, Md, last night.
