A fuir estimate of the total vote of these counties would be 6,000 Itis very dificult to make any reliable forccast as to what these counties have done this year for cither of the three gubernatorial candi- dates, The total vote of the state will boe from 205,000 to 210,000, and the candidate who re ves 70,000 votes is ain of elee- tion. Boyd is now in the lead, but still lacks 1,055 of that number, but the chances are that his vote will excced 70,000, because the alliance in the western part of the state is chiefly made up of republicans, Ric) urds, - Pow- Countios.

We have captured the next legislature, judging from the clection re- turns, and in such event we will pass statu- tory prohibition. l{ev, Bentloy, the prohibitionist, savs: re two ' reasons why we were de- Iirst, because the three great par- ties of the state were not for us, and conse- quently were against us. Second, becanso the ballots were not properly printed. The tickets should have been soprinted and given to our supporters that they could have been voted without scratching.” Instead of this, Dboth the paragraphs for and against the amendment appeared on each ticket, and many ignorant persons who intended to vote for the amendment did not scratch out the against paragraph, and consequently killed the votes, asin such cases they were thrown out.

Henry M, Stanley Artives and Talks in His Own Justification, THE REVELATIONS OF THE LOG BOOK. A Revolting Catalozue of Cruelty and Inhumanity —=An Action for Libel Will Sift the Matter, New Yorg, Nov. 6.<Thesteamer Teutonle, with Henry M. Stanley and p arrived this morning, tty on board, Major Pond, manager of Stanley’s tour; Colonel T. A. Knox, Ed- ward Quintard and Colonel Findley Ander- son met the party. Stanley was asked to say something about the vear guanl troubles and the stand the London pers, have taken on it since his departure from England. Hesaid: “Idonot wishto say much about it, and have not read London papers enouglhi to exprass an opiuion, I object to stireing the matter up unless [ am forced todoso, Iam justiied inall my censure of the rear guard which has caused the attack made upon me in the back.” In_another intecview referring to Bart- telot's diavies and Lieutenant Troup's book, Stanley ated what he has already said as to the condition of the rear guard when he returned from Albert Nyanza. IProm he wrote at once to IZmin that r rome, telling them the rear column wrecked by neglect of its officers and their indifference to the interest 3 tion. Referving to Troup, Stanley y when he got to Zanzebar onc of the first things he found was a letter from Tronp violantly abusing Barttelot. I never answered the letter, because it needed a personal interview, as there w many_questions 1 found it necessary to ask him, the principal one being why he and othiers preferted to remoin and it Yambuya instead of moving ons why they stayed until so many from discase or had be could get a satisfactory a v from Bonne; and hoped to get one from Troup, 1 i another letter from him and answ he would revise it I would publish it contained many things unfit for publi He was so obstinate he wouldn't and sent it back demanding I it. Then Troup wrote mea threatening let- ter, stating I would have to be preparcd to meet such measures as he might see fit toem- ploy to vindicate himsell. 1 wrote him, say- ing if he thought he was aligned unjustly to go ahead. I could see many things connected ¢ith the rear guard I should profer to keep from the publie, but if be wished to publish everything he could do so, I have Bonney's report of the troups, two letters of Ward's account which 1 re- ceived and more important than allI have the log book, signed by the oficers day after y. Without any other evidence that lo book of itsclf would prove that I was just fied in my censure of the rear column, which was very wild, in my ~letter to the commit- men died en killed. 1 nevel as it ation. revise it, should publish tee. “Am 1 going to publish that logi 1 caunot say, think it better to wait awhile oruntil I hay ad up's book. Bonney could relieve all this criticism by telling what he knows and writ- ing a plain, simple_ story of wiat took place how it was that Major Barttelot was killed how it was thet these men died like sheep; how it was that this rear column, so grandly equipped before starting, fell to rot.” Struley this evening recelved several re- port and talked :t’ length about oceur- rences ir ehe Barttlct amp. “The cause of the killing,”” ne said, ‘“‘was the major's violent temper. As soon’ as he reached camp from Nyanza he had trouble with one of the Arab Chiefs becaus enough couriers were not furnished, although Bon- ney told him be hadalready enough. Bartte- lot beat the Ar: a horrible nanuer with astick. Early on the morning of Julv 19, he akened by loud singing and beating of drums, Being informed it was theA frican custom in saluting the vising sun he id, with an oath, he would shoot the fir: rson that refused to stop the noise and tak- ing arevolver wentout.” Near the chief's hut he found a woman who was singing and men drumming. Tho woman was the wife of the chiel, and when he commanded her to ceaso singing she paid no attention, for all natives hated him. Barttelot then’ struck and kicked her. Her husband, the chief, took down his rifle aud killed Barttelot on the 8| om such reports as T couldobtain, Stan- , it appeared Barttelot made himself tasteful to the natives. He had a diculing them which provoked them very 1auch, For these reports I do not rely on Bonuey. Both Arab and native chiefs went over the matter very minutely The logbook of the camp, signed by B: telot, Jamieson, Bonney and Ward was sim- ply one long account of remorseless flogging and inhumanity. Barttelot even kicked his own attendant a little boy, Soulti, and the boy died trom the injuries inflicted: One min took a piece of raw meat because he was crazy with hunger, and for this he received #00 lashes, As s00m 74 the man was able he ran away, but was capturea and shot by Barttelot’s order,” Stanley says Bonney told him only a short timo ago that half the horrors that existed in that camp arcnot yet known. ~ Stanley, when he returus to England, may bring action for libel against BartteloV's brother, in order to have the matter sifted to the bottom, e Wiley's Sugar Report.
