New York. !Nov. Q The election was re
markable forthe general quiet. With the
exceptiDn of a few ordinary encounters there
was no happening that could be called rio
tous in any section. A tour of the districts
by a close observer resulted in no discover
ies that were more striking that the extra
ordinary serious, determined mood the
average" voter seemed to be in. Men who
never dream of taking breakfast before 9
in the morning were everywhere at the
polls long before they were legally open tor
yoters. Thev stood In the chilly air read
ing their papers, calmly waiting till the
time came for business to begin. In the
big district on the I West Side there were
long lines of men who stood for hours with
out being able to get anvwhere near the
polls till two or three hours after they had
got a place in the $ingle files on the side
walk. At one time in some of the brown
stone districts, where the Republican
strength is noted. many of- the
voters became suspicious as to the real
cause of the slow movement ahead of them
and at the ballot b$xes. ' In many instances
there was some bais for this view of the
situation and whenlit became apparent to
the watchers that too much time was being
taken up by the "slbw coaches," there was
a cry of ' Get a moye on you,?' and thous
ands be?ame mor rustling. There was
actual- disfranchisement in hundreds of
cases in various parts of the city unfor
tunate fellows, whoibecause of their illiter
acy and who were allowed no guide posts
behind the screens); , The cause of it a'l
was unquestionably (the lack of booths. It
is true that the law says there has to be a
booth for everv,500 voters, and that in sev
eral districts extra booths were quickly put
in place the night before election day; but
all that Hii not alter the fact that hundreds
ot men in the city to day stood in line and
had finallv to see the polls close in their
faces, before they could reach the' ballot
b jxes. I .
There was an omn ious silence as the re-
tarns were read at Tammany hall. Tam
many's beaten" ws the cry that went
round;the hall. Police Justice Ryan, who
was one of the few prominent Tammany
men remaining at tljie wigwam, said thing3
looked bad. "It lobk3 like a .Republican
landslide," said he J "and I am afraid we
are going to be snowed under." ; Nicholas
Donohoe made aql address. He said he
could not believe two such "through-souled"
Democrats as Senator Hill and ex-Mayor
Grant could be beaten in the State and city
of New York. Byj this time the news had
spread that. Hill and Grant were defeated,
and absolute silence prevailed in the hall.
Mr. Crain, to break the manotony, tintro
4uced John B. McGottrick, secretary-bf the
Tammany Hall, j 'You have heard me 'an
nounce'," said hej "in past years the victo
ries of Tammany jlall. I have to-night, I
am sorry to say, to announce a aeieas. t e
have lost the city by 25,000 yotesandthe
State by 100,000 voles. It has been a land
slidea tide we could not stem. We have,
at any rate nailedj our colors to the mast
and f ought to the last."
A wail went up from the crowd as Mr.
McGoldrick gave out the official statement
that vir.torv had deserted the party and
Tammany had be6n deserted. Mr. Crane
seeing there was no use to prolong the agony
said: "I have one thing to ask you before I
go and that is to give three cheers for David
B.Hill." Words cannot convey the inten
sity of the cheer that followed. The crowd

Democratic front has been broken and the
Republicans -made unprecedented I gains
in every direction. It is certain at thishonr
(midnight) that three Republican Congress
men have been elected Baker in the Sec
ond, Coffin in the Fifth, and Wellington in
the Sixth. The Democrats carried the
Third and Fourth districts with Rusk and
Cowen, but by very largely reduced plural
ity.: The First district is still in doubt. The
Republicans gained ten city councilmen and
will control the first branch. John J. Dob

CuABLESToif, W. V., Nov. 6. Dayton (Re-
fiublican) has been elected to Congress from
his district defeating Wm. L. Wilson
Miller has also defeated Hervey in the
Fourth district and the Republican com
mittee claims all four Congressmen. Indi
cations are that a Republican Legislature
has been elected.- This will give Republi
cans a United States Senator in place of
Camden (Democratic). j
Gbaftox, V. Va., Noy. 6, At 10:30 there
is scarcely a rav of hope for the escape of
William L. Wilson from the Republican
deluge. Dayton has made gains in every
county so far heard from. This county
gives him 450, a gain of 100; Preston 1,900,
a gain of 225; Berkeley, 225. a gain of 75:
Mineral, 200, a gain of 125; Marion is in
doubt, Wilson carried the county by 90
two years ago. The agricultural counties
in the interior may change the the aspect,
but it is not probable. r i

claims Dayton's election by 1,000.

Republicans are jubilant. j '

this place there were no tickets against the

county chairman, was to furnish them, but
as aoonas Hon. J. L. McLaurin's attention

the Democratic party because of their bitter
feeling to the present state-administration,
hacked bv the negroes of the cities and
towns. In addition to all this, the State has
been agitated over the question of holdiDg
a constitutional convention which, if held
would disfranchise the negro and eliminate
him from politics. This aroused . the ne-
trrops and on this question they have been
annnorted bv the independents who wish to
use the negro in the future. The feeling
has been bitter and the negroes have turned
out in larger numbers than in years; that
is. thev have turned out in the cities and
towns, but it is not likely, they have turned
out at the country precincts. ' where tbe
Democrats are in a larger majorityahd

much money, and in Beveral counties

enable them to get all the registration

that these certificates shall be ' is
sued by the supervisors not later than
the first Monday in July. Finding that the
negroes had not registered and secured cer
tificates, the independents boueht supervi

which, while illegally issued by the super
visors, were good at the polls.
In about half the counties, independent
tickets for the Legislature were run in the
hope of getting a sufl&oient number of mem
bers in the Legislature to re-elect Senator
Butler over Governor Tilman, the Demo

for Evans for. Governor. Dr. Pope, Who is
making an independent race for Governor,
is receiving numerous and repeated tele
grams of Jraud, and the reports are that
trickery has been used by the reform ma
chinery in Darlington, Florence, Clarendon,
Greeville. Winnsboro and Aiken. It is
likely that a contest of some kind will be
made.-1 Nothing more than the election of
Evans, even if forced, was expected. The
figures will no doubt Bhow a majority of

he has been. elected. Chairman
Jtby says thatv Sumter, Charleston,
Beaufort, Georgetown, and Richland will be
the only counties electing members of the
Legislature antagonistic to the candidacy of
Governor Tillman to the Senate. Horry
and Berkeley, he classes as doubtf nl. The
constitutional convention issue, which has
been a leading issue is still in doubt. Chair
man Irby says that the returns in the Con
gressional races are very meagre.and not
sufficient to make any definite statements,
but he has every reason to expect that seven
Democratic Congressmen will be elected.
