NEW Y0BK GOES TO FLOWER AND ll'KINLEY GETS OHIO The Returns From Other States Ideal Election Day. An Kiryr tosk. 'Wednesday's dispatches from New York state - that both sides are claiming the legislature, but the democrats h&ve the best of the claim. The Sun's returns show 17 democratic senaturs and 15 re-' publicans; 65 democratic assemblymen' and 63 republicans, a majority of 5 on joint ballot. Flower's plurality, has reached 45,000. The Herald estimates Flower's plurality over Fassett at 46,446. -Sheehan's estimated plurality over Vroo man for lieutenant governor is 80,246. The Herald's estimate also gives the sen ate 17 republicans, IS democrats; assem bly 69 republicans, 59 democrats, or 12 majority. Reports received by Associ ated Press up to 1 o'clock a. m. indicate that the state senate will stand 17 repub licans to 15 democrats and 64 democrats and 64 republicans in the assembly. omo. Cincinnati, November 8. The day has been, in many respects, an ideal election day. Here in Cincinnati it has been cloudy, cool and bracing, with fine flakes of snow toward evening. Every thing has been quiet. There has been an absence of rioting and polling place dis turbances such as have characterized Cincinnati elections in the past, and all on account of the new system of voting. Tbe only tickets are those in possession of the judges, and a voter is given one only when be is found duly registered. Conservative citizen of all parties . are loud in their praises of the new system. From all over the state come favorable reports of the workings of the system, repub licans praising it as well a democrats,' and that, too, in spite of the loud an nouncements of the republican organs that the kangaroo ballot must go. La test returns give the state to McKin ley by. 15,000 plurality. PENNSYLVANIA. A Philadelphia dispatch of Wednesday says: Complete returns from 53 of the 67 counties in the state, including Phila delphia and Allegheny, and careful esti mates for the other 14 counties, show a plurality of 56,648 for Gregg, republican, for auditor general. The proposition for a constitutional convention was over whelmingly defeated. KANSAS. Kansas City, Mo., November 3. Dis patches received from all parts of Kansas where elections are being held to-day show that an orderly and closely contest ed election is ia progress. Perhaps never in the history cf the state has the situation been more complicated. The republicans are thoroughly aroused and fighting tbe people's party hard. While there are no state officers to be elected, yet injudicial districts and counties party lines are closely defined, and the fight is waged on the general principles of the people's party and republican doctrines. The democrats have co hope of success, except 'whers they have fused, .with tbe people's party, and the contest with them is more for organization than office. A dispatch from Topeka says: The elections in Kansas Tuesday - resulted in an overwhelming victory for the republi cans. Four county omceis were elected in each of the 106 counties. The latent returns show that out of this total, 424 officers, the advance people's party has not elected more than 60. . L ist year the same number of county officers were elect ed in the state, and the republicans onlv secured 112. The people's party elected 1 out of 10 district judges, and that in a district where two republicans claimed the nomination and remained in the field. COLOBADO. The weather was warm and cloudy. and the election was, beyond all question, the most peaceful ever held in Denver. Considering the fact that this is an off vear. and that the Australian system which went into effect had disfranchised colonies, yet the vote cast was a surpris ingly heavy one. There were five tickets in tbe held democratic, repuDiican, prohibition, people's party and people's non-partisan party, tne two nrst polling a vote, tbe other three naving uttie show. No state officers were voted for except chief justice of the supreme court, and but little scratching was done, and that entirely among names for local of ficers. MASSACHUSETTS. Boston. November 3.

Election' day being a legal holiday, the banks, exchanges, markets and - mo nicipal and state governmentfofiices are closed. Many wholesale establishments and retail houses are also closed. The city wears quite a holiday appearance. ' The elec tion p-oceeded zealously and quietly. Returns thus far (12:80 a. m.) are very incomplete,: but are sufficient to .; show that the entire democratic state ticket and con n t .tick-t arc l'rtd ly .in creased majorities over the vote of two' years ago.

IOWA. Des Moines, Ia., November 8. The most exciting state election in the his tory of Iowa has closed. Both sides have remained very confident throughout the contest. In Des Moines the democrats commenced firing cannon before a single precinct had finished balloting. The re publicans were not as demonstrative, but just as confident of victory. It is con ceded the election will be clrae. The most remarkable things is the increase of the vote over last year and two years ago. All reports received indicate the heaviest v'te ever cast in the state. The weather has been disagreeable in many parts of the state, but it has probably not dim- nisheil the vote. ' Latest returns indicate that Boies's majority will be about 2,500. NEBRASKA. Dispatches from Omaha say: Returns' from the city and state are still very meager, but careful estimates give Post, republican candidate for supreme judge, 6,000 m jotity over Edgerton, iudepend-ent-people. The entire republican city and county ticket is elected by majorities of 2,000 to 2,500. VIBOINIA. Richmond, Va., November 8. While the weather has been favorable for the election, indications are tbat a small vote was polled in this state to-day for mera-! bers of the legislature. But meager re turns have been receivedaUaf schk are favorable to the democrats. The cities of Richmond, Danville, Peters burg, Norfolk, Portsmouth and Fred ericksburg elect democrats without op position. SOUTH DAKOTA. At midnight the election of. Jolley, re publican,; to congress, . in South Dakota is conceded and it becomes simply a question of plurality. A very light vote was cast, threshing being of greater interest... MABTXAND. Baltihobe, November 8. Frank Brown, democratic candidate for gover nor, has a majority of between 15,000, and 20,000, as figured put at democratic headquarters. The regular domocracy claim to have elected their entire Balti more city ticket by an average of 5,000 majority. " . MICHIGAN. Estimates based on the returns so far re ceived give the republicans a sweeping victory at Grand Rapids. Belknap, re publican candidate for the fifth congres sional district, will be returned by 1,200 to 1,500 majority. Returns are slow, but present indica tions are that the republicans will elect their Detroit city ticket by a large ma jority. . Mayor Pingree, republican can didate, will run considerably ahead of tbe n st of the ticket. The republicans will also elect 15 out of 16 aldermen. BUSINESS REVIEW. Th Outlook as Reported by Dan & Co., for Past Week. Dun's review of trade for week ending October 30th, says: Business -failures during the past seven days number for the United States 207, Canada, 48, com pared with a total of 249 last week and 259 the week previous; the correspond ing week last year, 218, leprtsenting 190 tailures in the United States and 28 in Canada. Improvement in business continues. It is greater than before at the west, con siderable at the south, and is clearly per ceived even at the e st. Yet discourage ment in some branches of industry is not less,' but more apparent than before, evidently because calculations have, been made upon a more rapid and grtater in crease in business than has been realized. The peculiar expansion in some forms of production and of trade has invited the usual incorrect .view, and depression ex ists which is so general that it might easily be misinterpreted. The iron industry shows most change for following the large increase of output last month, there has come a decided change of tone. Extreme anxiety to sell pig iron, and financial weakness in unexpected quarters produce the present depression, which is in curious contrast with the abounding confidence which prevails regarding the future. Plate mills have a fair business at the lowest E rices ever recorded, and structural iron i irregular and also very low. The anthracite coal market is more cheerful, the production to October 24th being 81,608,975 tons, or 8,059,447 more than last year to date. . The dress goods market is active and works well employed, though narrow margins of profit. Cotton mills have an increasing business in fancies, but the trade in staples is falling off and buyers urge that lower prices are justified by tbe decline in raw cotton. Yet the southern demand is better and trade, on the whole, fairly good. Reports from other cities than New York are decidedly more encouraging than usual, though at the east the im provementis not rapid. At most southern points general trade improves, but at Charleston money is tight. Wheat rises I cents without any excuse. Speculative manipulation .has hoisted corn 5 cents, but pork products are a shade lower, ana cotton declines a Sixteenth with continu ing heavy receiptsV Oilhas fallen" three- eignthsg: Jtut co e is a shade stronger advance in ?a4es byfthe Bank of England can much diminish jhe shipments of gold to this country. Tne treasury has put out $1,500,000 more new treasury notes, but has taken in the same amount, of other forms of monev. ' Throughout the Eastana " West, and at most Southern points, the money markets are well sup plied for legitimate business, and rates tend lower, while collections improve to some extent almost everywhere, but es pecially at the principal Western points. BRIGGS VINDICATED. The Case Against him for Heresy Dls- missed. A New York dispatch says: The pres bytery, which was to try Professor Charles B. Briggg, of the Union Theolo gical seminary, for heresy, met Wednes day morning in the Scotch Presbyterian church, with a large attendance. Pro fessor Briggs was present and pleaded his own case. One of the chief charges against him waS that he disputes the ex emption of the Bible from error. The session ended by the presbytery dismiss, ing the charge. Dr. Briggs read his statement, in which he ob--. jected te the charges as lacking specifi cations and vague. He said - nO man re gretted more than he any disturbance to harmony in the church. He de clared his belhf in the Bible as the only rule of faith and belief. Dr. Van dyke, in moving to dismiss the case. said he did so not in the interest of Dr. Briggs, who had call he wanted a trial, but in the interest of the peace, purity and unity of the church, which all the presbytery had sworn to study.. 9 sell has over ls.-rinsxcwri -it U LiTSn&mlL1 . COTOCl FREED. TEE JIINps GET IN THEID WORKf AT BRICEVILLE By Swooping Doiim Upon the Stoci ade and liberating the Occupants. A Knoxvifle, Tenn., dispatch says: At an early hour Friday night an attempt was made to get through a business mes sage to Briceville. There was no , re sponse to the telegraphic signal., Thpn tbe next station, and the next was tried, until at last Clinton responded. The operator there; was asked what was the matter. Ms looked out in the direction of Briceville. and at once replied : "I ee a great light, as of an immense fire, re- fleeted in tbe sky. The wire to Brice ville is cut, and I can't call it up." At once the suspicion arose, a moment later to be strengthened . into conviction the miners had cut the wires and tken possession. Intense excitement prevail ed. A telegram from Clinton read: "Three thousand miners had gathered around among tne hills during the day. as aarsness came on tney gathered in little parties, these parties joining each other, until four parties were - formed. As by a preconcerted signal they 'closed in upon wq camp. They were halted by a' guard, but he was quickly filenced by the command : There are of us here? We have "coEflj tii OalTdut your boss at once and let usisettle this affair." Bv uus time were .were a number of the of ficers of the camp en hand. They were disposed to resist. The discharge of a JM .1 1.- .1 s -1 j iuuumuu iuuh xu me air convinced in em that the call. was .serious. The messen ger blew a policeman's whistle, and, in a S J- ' . i . . luiuute, coming in at a aouoie-quicK, theie were in sight hundreds of brawny, determined-looking men. Not a word did they say, but they had their Win chester rifles in readiness. Reluctantly the officers stepped out of the way. a The liberators came from every direc tion, and, assembled in force, marched on the stockade. Their first act was to blow up the magazine, the uprights of the stockade were knocked off. Then began a scene which beggars descrip tion. The 150 convicts, who had been awakened by the shots, were terrorized. They were screaming for mercy, fearing that the mob intended to kill them. The miners closed in within a circle of about one. hundred feet from the stockade. A detail was sent in, and the work of breaking the shackles began. As fast as they were freed they were told in no un certain" language, to get out, and it is needless to say, they skipped out with alacrity. There was a large quantity of citizens' clothes near by, which many , of them donned. When the last prisoner was free the torch was applied to the stockade, which,, with the exception of the norih wall and the rifle pit, was re duced to ashes. Ten eight-room houses and a large dining hall inside of the en closure went in the general conflagration. At the lower end of the Coal Creek stockade the office building was burned and the guard shacks" demolished. The interior of tbe convicts' dining hall, sleeping room, .hospital ward and kitchen were filled with broken furni ture, shattered, , glass and queensware. The store of tW warden, Jack Chumley, was rifled, anil about fifteen hundred dollars? worth f goods taken and' de stroyed. - ; I ' akoWkb account, .... The citizens il Bricveille began to hear squads of men gassing through the place on their way to the stockades between eight and nine o&lock Friday night. This was kept up for nearly an hour. It was about 9:80 o'clock when 20!) men descended Walden's ridge, approaching the stockade from the east. They called upon Warden Cross to deliver them the keys of the prison. While this was go-' ing on, tbe magazino was blown up, and the stockade surrounded by 2,500 men. Cross gave up the keys, and when the 141 vonvicts were released, they assisted in burning and destroying the property. TO THE CHUMLEY MINE. The attackicg party then moved on the Chumley or Coal Creek stockade, and a halt was made near there. Twenty five men were sent forward to demard the surrender of the convicts. The men kept up continuous volleys from their Winchesters. Only one guard was on duty, and he lost no time in obeying. The convicts were told to go, and many oi them, as at Briceville, were given citi zen's clothes. When the convicts were liberated they, plundered Chumlev's store and destroyed the stockade furniture. The office building was accidently set on fire by the overturning of a stove. The mob then descended to the valley, where rfeey set off several dynamite bombs, and fired a small cannon, they had with them. The racket occasioned by these dis charges, together with the explosion of the ammunition stored at the Briceville stockade, which the fire , touched off created the impression among non par ticipants that a small war was in progress This, howeVer, was not the case, as there was not a single shot fired at any man or any raacajlsea.
