Arrests for illegal registration were not so numerous in the early morning hours as had been expected. To dispose of such cases three United States commissioners were in con- tinuous session from 9 o’clock—Messrs.

Police headquarters was ® scene of activity this morning. Superintendent Byrnes was at his desk at 6 o'clock, At 6:30 Inspectors Me- Avoy, Conlin and Williams arrived. Three carriages were kept in front of headquarters for the use of inspectora, At 8 o'clock 150 reserves were on duty and in readiness in case of trouble. The patrol wagons were standing in Mulberry street in case they were needed. President Martin reached his office at 7:30 o'clock and was soon after joined by Com- missioners Sheehen and McClave. General quiet throughout the city was reported. Re- serves are also on duty in the station houses. Rumors of arrests-were frequent during the morning. In front of the polling place at No. 66 Madison street there was a free fight at an early hour, but no serious damage was done and there were no arrests made. In several election districts of the second as- sembiy district one or more voters were arrested, by the deputy marshals. In district 87 the tuarshals allowed a man to vote for whom they had a warrant and then arrested him. He was taken from the marshal as they neared the cor- ner of Mott street and the Bowery. Gov. FLOWER voTES. Gov. Flower was the first of the distinguished men to cast his vote. It was not generally known that he claimed a residence in New York city. But he had registered in 50th street and Madison avenue. Shortly after 7 o'clock the governor walked into the polling place, and, with's pleasant smile for the inapectors, said: “Good morning, gentlemen; it's a beautiful ing, isn't it?” “Delightful,” answered » policeman, who stood near by. ahead of the governor and attempted to step but the governor Go mba exclaiming: “No, now keep your place, I'l vote in the regular order.” ‘When all the line had been furnished tickets up to Gov. Flower the ballot clerk said, as be handed over set No. 21: “Roswell P. Flower, 597 5th avenue.” It was just 7:15 o'clock when the governor entered the little booth to select and fold his tickets. Ten minutes later he came out and handing the tickets he wished to vote over to the inspector, etepped back and started to move out. He was interrupted by an exclamation from the inspector, however, and returned. “You will have to go back, governor; yor tickets are pot folded right,” the inspector said. ‘The governor's face was instantly suffused with blushes and his efforts to conceal embar- rassment only added to his evident discom- fiture. “Well, well, he exclaimed, and taking his ticket he a booth. that’s funny.” entered the The janitor had voted without difficulty and seemed to feel proud of his superior knowledge of how to exercise his franchise. “The big men don't know everything as much ome poor folks about some things.” said the janitor, and the remark provoked s1 crnor took eight minutes for bis sec ond attempt, and with a satisfied, determined look he faced’ the inspectors again. “I guess it’s all right now,” he said, and waited for a reply. “That'll do,” said the inspector, with abroad grin, and he deposited the fall set in their re- ypective boxes as the governor hastened away.

Ex-President Cleveland left his house, 12 West 51st street, at 10:25a.m. and walked to the polling place, accompanied by his butler, Wm. P. Sinclair. and Geo. F. Parker. It was 10:30 when they reached the polling place, 876 6th avenue. There were twenty-five men’ in line ahead of the ex-President. They recognized him, and, ra ising their hats, bowed.

As soon as Commissioner Shields or Commis- sioner Denel had decided to hold eny of the ar- rested men for examination at a future time bail was promptly furnished and the accused men released and permitted to return home. In a few casos, where the alleged illegal voter had no one to vouch for fore being him, bail was not furnished and the accused | bi had ‘to go to Ludlow street jail. By 10 o'clock fully fifty men had been brought under arrest to the Federal building. The liveliest proceedings took before Commissioner Denel, where were brought twenty voters from the city institutions on Blackwell's Island who had voted or attempted to vote at the polling place for the twenty- ninth election district of the sixteenth assem- bly district, where many of the would-be voters from charity hospitals and other institutions had rogistered. A feature of the arresta made was those of men employed on steamboats or sailing vessels, who claimed s residence in lodging houses down town. REPUDLICANS REASSURED.

NEGROES VOTING TRE DEMOCRATIC TICKET. In Petersburg a heavy vote is being polled | and many of the negroes are voting the demo- | cratic ticket. At the precinct in the fifth ward more ni are voting the demo- cratic ticket than for the republican nominees, and many of the} republicans, while voting for Harrison and Reid, are scratching Goode, the third party candidate for Congress from the fourth district, whose name appears at the | tail end of the regular republican ticket. Among those who refused to vote for Goode | and scratched him was Col. James D. Brady, | UnitedStates internal revenue collector for this | district. Brady had previous to the election de- | clared that he would not vote for Goode. While Goode is not being voted for by Brady and many of his foliowers,he is supported by Mahone and his party. Some few of the ne-| groes here in this city and also in the district | are scratching Goode and voting for Epes, but | amajority of them are believed to be cast-| ing their ballots for the third party candidate.
