It is Placed on File and the Sen- ators-Blect are Sworn In. Edmunds Offers a Resolution Against Reorganizing the Sonate Committeos. SENATE. National Associnted Press, WasHiNgroN, October 11 —Imme- diately after the reading of the jour- nal, Senator Edmunds moved that Aldrich be sworn in as senator from Rhode Island, which was agreed to. He then moved the admission of Miller and Lapham, the senators from New York. Senator McPherson said he held in his hand a paper signed by certain members of the legislature of New York, setting ferth the rcasons why these gentlemen should not be admit- ted to seats in the senate. Respect- ing the allegations he had no knowl- edge, nor was he personally ac- quainted with any of the signers of the papers. He did not propose to interpose this paper in opposition to the admission of, the gentlemen, but recognizing the right of the petition, he felt it his duty to lay it before the senate, Senator Edmunds inquired to whom the paper was addressed. McPherson replied: ““To the senate of the United States, The paper was then placed on file and Scnators-elect Aldrich, escorted by Mr. Anthony, Lapham by Ed- munds, and Miller by Sherman, ad- vanced to the desk and were sworn in by the president pro tem. On motion of Pendleton a commit- tee of two were appointed to wait up- on the president and inform him that a quorum of the senate was assembled and ready to receive any communica- tions he might be pleased to make. The chair appointed Pendlcton and Anthouy as such committee. GUITEAU. Guiteau will not be arraigned to- day. Scoville has gone to Baltimore to see somo lawyer in regard to se- curing his assistance. Scoville says he does not doubt that his client will be arraigned some day this week at which time counsel will ask that he be allowed two or three months of prep- aration. It is hardly probable that the court will make such allowance. HOWGATE'S CASE, The case of Captain Howgate is bo- ing heard by the grand jury this morn- ing. The Indictment is expected this afternoon. THE STAR ROUTERS. Counsel for the star routes filed a motion to quash the information against Brady & Co., in_the criminal court this morning, and Judge Cox told the counsel for both sides to ar- range among themsclves a day for an argument of the motion. Tt will prob- ably be some day this week. THE YORKTOWN CELEBRATION. Wasuainaron, D, C., October 11. - Senator Johnston, of Virginia, and Commissioner Soving, members of the Yorktown centennial commission cal- led upon the president last night, and invited him to attend the celebration. The president accepted and will be accompanied by members of the cabi- net on the steanier Tallpoosa and Des- patch, Secretary Blaine and foreign guests will go upon another. The president will make no speech on the occasion. The steamer Excelsior has been chartered to convey the congres- sional delegatian. The steamer Leary had been chartered for this purpose, but the senators all being in Washing- ton her accomodations were deemoed insufticient and she will be assigned other duty. TO BE ADMITTED WITHOUT OPPOSITION. WasuiNGroN, October 11, Tho democrats at their caucus this morn- ing decided to admit Senator-elect Miller and Lapham, of New York, and Aldrich, of Rhode Tsland, without op- position, BAYARD TO BE SUPPLANTED, The democrats in caucus resolved to adopt a waiting policy in regard to the election of a scerotary and to be guided altogether by the action of the republicans, The democrats believe that an attempt will be made by the republicans as soon as their new sena- tors are swora in, to supplant Senator Bayard by Senator David Davis as Ermdam pro tempore and say they now Davis is willing. At 12:15 p. m,, on motion of Har- ris, the senate took a recess for half an hour. On the senate being called to order again, Edmunds offered a resolution that the committecs of the senate as they existed at the close of the last session, be continued for the session, and that the president pro tem be em- powered to fill any vacancies that may exist. Mr. Davis, of West Virginia, moved | that the resolution lay over, Mr. Pendleton of the committes up pointed to wait on the president ro- ported that they had performed that | duty and the president had replied | that he would communicate with the | sena‘e in writing to-morrow morning. | The senate then at 12:60 p, m.,, & journed, - e Dr. Thomas Found Guilty National Associated F Cuicaco, October 11.—At midnight | the comwmittee in charge of Dr Thomas's heresy trial at Bycamore ar- | rived at a verdict of “‘guilty.” Dur- ing the three hours preceding midnight thoy took five formal ballots. Those were preceded by several informal ballots, which showed that a large majority of the committee wore against Dr. Thomas. The vote for Dr. Thomas ranged as low as three and as high as six. On the first and second charges he was found guilty and on the second and third specifica- tions. On the fisst specification, charging him with denying the inspira- tion of the Seripturcs, ho was ac- quitted. The court expels him from lfi\c ministry and from membership in the M. E. church, The verdict will create considerable astonishment, not- withstanding the fecling that first prevailed that the verdict was a fore- gone conclusion, Barglars at Grand Junction.

National Assoclated Pross, Cmicaco, October 11, -A special from St. Paul says the Minnesot leg- islature meets in extra session to-day. called by Gov. Pillshury to consider the proposition of Selah Chamberlain for the settlement of the old state railroad debt upon a basis of fifty cents on the dollar and to elect a sen- ator to fill_the unexpired term of Windom. Members are reticent on the bond matter. Popular sentiment in the state is overwhelmingly against a settlement and mafigmembers who favor an honest pa rm of the state debt are too timid to say so. It ie impossible to predict the result. A motion will be made early in the session to elect a senator and adjourn without going into the bond matter, and popular sentiment may carry it through. There is no appearance of a.bond lobby here, and the only thought of leading pub- lic men who are anxions to redecm the state credit is whether they can prevail over the popular repudiation prejudice by mere foree of argument. The senatorial question daes not excite much interest. 1t is generally conceded that Secretary Windom will be a candidate. Other possible candi- dates are Congressman Dunn and Gor- don, but all will give way, it is thought, hefore Windom. FOREIGN AFFAIRS. National Associated Press.

A General Scratching of Tickets in Ohio Yesterday, ‘Which Makes the Counting of Votes Necessarily Slow and Tedious, The Latest Returns Indicate Foster's Flection by 16,000 M jority. Tammany and Irving Hall Dele- gates Excluded From the New York Con- vention, Harmony Again -lstobhshed Among New York Republicans, Other Political Notes. The Battle in Ohio, ted Pross, at1, Oct. 11.—The weather to-day is delightful and a_much fuller vote than waus expeoted will be polled. No such scattering wa ever known as shows itself and the work of counting will be long and tedious. Besides republican, democrat, proh bition and greenback ticket, & dozen or so so- cieties, nationalities and special inter- ests have tickets mostly selected from candidates on regular tickets, The chief element of interest on the state ticket is the prohibition vote as it comes mainly from republicans and much depends on the magnitude of this element. Corvmpus, 0., October 11.—The weather is very fino, The vote polled in the wards up to 11 a. m. show that the total vote will fall 15 per cent. A full vote, however, may be got out later. The election of the entire dem- ocratic ticket seems conceded. The republicans made tho hardest fizht on sheriff and probate judges, but their own candidates are German and Irish rospectively, and the trading thus caused makes for the benefit of demo- crats. Bookwalter is accounted as running well, but no enthusiastic views of his clection are heard. The republicans place Foster's majority at 150,000, provided thetemperance vote does nov exceed 12,000, CixcisNati, 0., October 11.—The day was fine but nearly all_places re- port a light vote and a groat deal of Sciatehing, never known, A straight ticket 18 a curiosity and so tedious is the work of counting that many precmets will not be finished by sunrise to-morrow. The seratching to-day is terrible and the returns will necessarily be late and incomplete. 10 p. n.— At this hour but few voting places have reported and these indicate democratic gains. There is an uncasy feeling hore among repub- licans. Scratching has peen 50 gen- eral with republicans that it is b lieved that nearly the whole demo- cratic county ticket in Hamilton coun- ty is elected. At the Lincoln club thore is a feeling of fear that the liquor vote and temperance dissatis- faction has possibly defeated the r: publican state ticket. The first twelve preciucts reported show a atic gain of 169, republican Democratic net gain 81, ~ari, October 11—10: m, — Fifty vrecincts give a democr: gain of 738; republic n, net democratic gain, 157, 'This does not include any in Hamilton county, where the indications are of slight re- publican gains on the state ticket. Cx AT, October 11—At 11 o’clocl returus from 78 precinets in 2l parts of the state, including 6 in Hamilton county, show a net demo- cratic gain of 448. Ludlows vote (temperance,) 8o far about two per cent. of the whole which will run it to about 10,000 in the state. The re- publicans believe that with full re- turng Foster will be elceted by 10,000 majority. 11:35 p. m.—-Only eleven pre cinets in this county, Those show s net republican gain of seven on the state ticket. Nash, chairman of the central committee, claiins the state for the republicans by 18,000, but the democrats do not concede over 7,000. Returns very mcagre, being from 225 places in various parts of the state. CINCINNATI, October 11, —midnight. —At midnight 166 wards and pre- cinets are reliably reported, show a net democratic gain of 73, There are 2,282 wards and precinets in the state which, at this rate, will give Bookwalt net gain of less than 4,000, leaving Foster's majority over 14,000. The temperance vote re- ported in these wards is 960, out of a total vote of 44,252, The vote of the state will probably reach 650,000, The temperance vote of the stato will hardly rveach 15,000, CiNciNNaATI, October 12.-—-At 1 a, m., returns are very meagre, but enough to indicate that Foster's ma- jority is not far from 15,000 and the remainder of the republican state ticket about the smme, In Hawmilton county the count will be in progress till daylight but there is little seratch. g on the state ticket and Foster's majority will probably reach 1,200. A demoratic judge and one or two can- didates are probably elected through republican scratching. It looks as if the logislature will ho vepublican, but may depond on Hamilton county, which is still very uncertain, Crscrnyary, Octoher 1:35 a. m, ~~The intercst at 1a m, contera in the legislature, Theio is a stvong probability that it will be republicans, The scratehing is 80 goneral that the democratic candidatws may be eleeted from Hamilton county and thereby ive one branch to the democrats, nless, however, they can prooure Tu this city the like wan | D both houses it will be impossible to upsot the present districtitg of the | state for congressman which is con- sidered by both partics a very im- portant matter. ’ Corvmnrs, 0., Oectobor 12, - At 12:20 a. m. demoorats concéde Fostors eloction by 8,000, while the rcpubli- cans claim 1t by 15,000, Tegisla- ture is in doubt and depen on the result in Hamilton county,. pl\ may ot bo defermined until #85morrow Four hundred and thirtys and precincts give a net democanic ain of 615, Kvery indieation is that the close counties are republican for the legislature. Later refurns show that the repub. lican candidates for the legislature have been elected in Muskegum coun- ty and in Van Wert. Ths democrats even fear that Foster has carvied Franklin county. But few remain at the democratic headquarters, A string band has just been ont over to serenade them = from the republican headquarters. IOWA THE ELECTION YESTREDAY.

The president hus definitely stated that he will have no communication to send to the senate other than nominations. The fact that nothing but nominations were consid- ored at the cubinet mecting to-day and that cabinet changes were not referred to is taken a8 evidence by some that no immediate change were contemplated, But, on the other bhand, it is said that Secretary Windom told a friend Jast night that the president would name his successor within forty-cight hours, It is pretty well understood that Judge Folger, of New York, stands the best chance for the pos tion, Tt is thought that the attor generalship will be filled from New England. ~ Secrotary Blaine expects to retire before long and devote his time to private business, THE DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS, WasaiNoroN, October 11.-—The democratic senators went into caucus soon after the adjournment of the senate to-day, the subject under con- sideration being Edmund's resolution to continuc the standing committeos, The unknown attitude of David Davis placed the democrats in an embarrass- ing and uncertain position, as their power to resist republican advances depends, now that the three new sen- ators have been admitted, upon his voting with them, There was a pro- longed discussion, and after appoint- ing Messrs.
