YESTERDAY'S MARKETS.
The city markets were fairly active with wheat
and corn lower and oats very firm. At Milwau-
L- i- wheat closed at Wednesday's prices. At
Chicago wheat was %c and He lower; corn was
J»e and lc and oats 14c lower than Wednesday's
close. . New York stocks opened weak and
lower and the market was depressed and dull all
day, closing from ii to 2H per cent lower.
Northwestern went down li percent., and St.
Paul at the close was also lit off. Northern Pa
cific closed "4, Oregon Transcontinental J4,
Manitoba 1, and Western Union \% lower than
on Wednesday. Omaha remained steady. Min
ing Stock was dull and quiet.
Cleveland is elected and will be inaug
urated.
It is Grover Cleveland and not Jay Gould
or Jim Blaiue that is President,
The Blame- gang don't feci particularly
anxious to begin to fool with the Democratic
patty;
Gexeual Grant did not vote for Blame.
He was too lame to go to the polls on elec
tion day.
Cleveland's election was celebrated last
night at Augusta, right under Mr. Blame's
"robust" nose. ''..•,
a Blame telegraphed yesterday that bis
health is good, and it is to be inferred he is
in no Immediate danger of sun-stroke. - '■■'- :':•
The Democratic leaders are cool and de
termined, and Mr. Blame will not fool with
them. lie Is no soldier, save only in a
campaign of lies.
Having been defeated by the people Mr.
Blame will pursue the Presidency no
further, which is a very good idea if he cares
to retain his good health.
Gov. Cleveland said last night that he
regarded himself elected, and in the interest
of the people he should not allow himself to
be defrauded of the Presidential office.
Mb. Blame's health Is unusually robust,
pays the superserviceable telegraph that Jay
Gould owns. There was no mention of Mr.
Gould's health, quite a serious omission.
It is stated by those in a position to know
that not less than six million dollars were
expended in the campaign made to elect
Jim Blame. It has come to that pass that
the Republicans have no faith In any prin- i
ciple except the power of money as a basis
for corruption. This low, groveling view is
degrading to the country, but it is all there
is to expect from the party that had the ef
fontry to undertake to make Blame Presi
dent. But the Jay Gould corruption fund
failed of its work.
The feeling exhibited last night throughout
the country served notice on Mr. Blame and
the party training at his heels that as he was
Dot elected, he could not steal the Presidency
by falsifying the election returns from New
York. The rascals had begun the infamous
work by adding 200 to 400 in the -counties of
Monroe, Ren6saelar and Sarotoga to Blame's
vote. The people arc in no mood to permit
any overt acts of scoundrellsm In the inter
est of the candidate of Jay . Gould. The
Blame party took warning, and
in the later dispatches last night the
Associated Press began to tell the truth,
while Gould and Lis confederates had to
abandon the plans that were laid and give
Way to the people, who are determined to
Lave the man they had elected .
THE third DISTRICT.
We are sorry to have tounuounce that
Hon. Iguatios Donnelly has been defeated j
by a small majority. 1,, Meeker couuty,
where he reasonably expected two or three
hundred majority, Strait has nearly three
hundred majority; this tuak«s a difference

' Looa county which we gay.- yesterday to
Donnelly by 5T5 majority . '• really gave him
727 in a total vote of 2,005! If this, splendid
result' could ha va U-cn imitated in Meeker
Donnelly would have swept- tbe Held, aud
tho Democrats have had «Vu 3 -mem ber of
congress on the floor of the Louse i., sustain
the admin lslration of G rover Cleveland. Mr.
Donnelly has carried Chippewa, which gave
Garfield 700 majority, by a small majority.
Governor Robinson, of Massachusetts,
Is quite a thoughtful person . He took pains
to issue his annual Thanksgiving proclama
tion before the occurence of the November
elecUp^ j This prudent forethought on the
part of the Governor saved him the mortifi
cation of pretending to be thankful for the
defeat of Blame, for . whom be bled and
fought and died In a manner tbat would dis
crace any official, and was especially offen
sive in the man run and elected because Ben
Butler was esteemed to be a boss blackguard.
Ben's mantle fell on Robinson.
OUR FLAG STILL THERE.
The Globe announced on Wednesday
morning that Cleveland and Hendricks 'had
219 electoral votes.
That announcement was correct and will
stand. t
ij-. Gov. Cleveland has been elected President,
and in spits of lying bulletins and the ter
rible death striiffgle of the "grand old party*
he will be inaugurated.
The victory has been won and it cannot
sod will not be snatched away.
~KEEP~COOU '
It is best not to get excited. Everything
will come out all right, aud the man who has
secured a majority of the electoral college
will be the next President. Tbe unparalleled
excitement on the streets in St. Paul last
night show the foundation for what may be
come a dangerous state of affairs.
The experience of 1876 taught the Dem
ocracy a lesson and all concerned can rest
assured that another dose, of fraud wilt not
be tolerated.
There Is no occasion for excitement or
quarreling among neighbors. It is time for
coolness and patriotic conservatism, while at
the same time it can be understood tbat a
square deal is of vital importance to the pub
lic health and prosperity.
BEECUER ON SIR MOSES MONTE
FIOHI.
Rabbi Spargcn, at the Temple Beth Elo-
I— fla, on Pearl street New York, last Satur
day morning (the Jewish Sabbath) extended
a warm and graceful acknowledgment to the
Rev. Henry Ward Beecberfor his liberal and
kindly words, delivered in New York on tbe
occasion of the anniversary of tbe 100 th
birthday of Sir Moses Monteflore. The rev
erend gentleman dwelt particularly on the
following quotation from Mr. Beecher'a
speech: "If all Israelites are like this great
man (Montefiore) whose birthday we cele
brate, lam a Jew, I am a Hebrew, I am of
the seed of Abraham. He Is my brother.
He belongs to me by the right I have to ad
mire everything that Is good." The speaker
said there were hundreds of Christian
clergymen in America who would echo the
above sentiment, but all men were not yet
willing to proclaim the glory of Judaism ; all
men are not Beecbers and all cannot be as
tolerant as be. There had been a great
change during recent years, and in the Old
World as well as in the new, and the barri
ers which had been put up against the Jews
and their religion were fast being remsved.
There were, however, certain rabbis who
through a desire for notoriety were entering
the field of sensationalism and were bringing
not only themselves, hut their religion into
disrepute. Such men, however, were few in
numbers.
SENDING FOR BLAINE.
The closeness of the vote in the state of
New Fork, the majority clearly on the side of
Cleveland, has rendered Blame's henchmen
desperate, and they have in hot baste sum
moned Blame by telegraph to New York*
Wherefore! Is there any honest work for
him to do there! What can he do to turn the
tide of victory, which has set against him!
Do his partisan rely upon his well proved un
scrupulous character, and his facility in ex
pedients in casting anchors to the windward
to devise ways to snatch triumph from defeat!
There are yet numerous voting precincts in
the state whose returns have not come in.
Are the returns from these precincts to be
"doctored," 60 as to give the majority to
Blame! It will be well to take care in adopt
ing any species of skulduggery and knavery
to take from the Democrats, the honestly
achieved majority, and transfer it to Blame.
The Republicans stole the Presidency once.
They cannot do it again. The theft was
aequlcsced by the magnanimous and patriot
ic forbearance of Samuel J. Tilda n, who re
fused to precipitate a civil conflict, even for
the Presidency, to which he was elected by a
majority of a quarter of a million of the popu
lar vote, but cheated out of it by a corrupt
returning board in Florida, whose false re
turns were adroitly manipulated at Washing
ton, by the creation of a7to 8 commission
to take the Chief Magistracy from the actually
elected candidate. That act cannot be again
repeated successfully. The President actual
ly elected will this time be seated at all haz
ards. Grant is not now in power, as he was
In 1876 to mass troops at Washington, and to
fill the basement of the capitol with armed
men, to seize the presidency by force, if
strategy tailed. But if he were,' .the right
would be tested at whatever cost
The party in power have grown more
boldly corrupt in the intervening eight years
and they have a more unscrupulous leader
than was ever before known to lead any par
ty In the history of the country, but If he at
tempts usurpation he and his reckless parti
sans will be taught a lesson that will not be
forgotten. The temper of the times is such
that no wrong will be tamely submitted to.
No false, corrupt returning boards in • this
year of grace, can cheat the lawfully elected
Democratic candidate to the presidency, out
of his ofiice. If the Plumed Knight so
nervously and hysterically summoned to
New York, venture to enter upon any unlaw
ful scheme to clutch the Presidency, he will
come out of the conflict with less plumes
than he had when he entered it

. Turbulent Multitude,
If Wednesday night was pandemonium let
loose last night was balls dozen of them all
boiled down Into one. The whole town '
seemed to be wild with excitement. Early
la the evening tbe Democrats assembled in '
front of the Globe office, and there was an j
immense crowd of them, that filled the street |
solid from Third to Fourth street, and all I
men shouting at the top of their voices as \
one bulletin after another was put out. It ,
appeared to be the time for the Democracy to '
bowl. Everybody was apparently convinced j
that the Democrats had carried New York,
which is the pivotal point In this tight, and
that the Republicans were trying to delay the
returns to learn bow much doctoring
was necessary to 'be practiced in
order to carry that state and defeat tbe will ,
of the people. Tbe immense crowd assem
bled around tbe Globe Office, filled the j
whole street and was Intensely in earnest,
, and on all bands could be heard expressions
of opinions, which indicated that the people
did not propose to submit to such an out
rage, as it was believed was being practiced.
Having been cheated out of the president
tbey bad elected once they were not slow in
declaring that they would not again be
swindled in the same way. This was the
unanimously expressed opinion.
In the mean time a crowd of Republicans
bad assembled on the corner of Third and
Minnesota streets to receive the few crumbs
of comfort tbey could obtain from the poor
old newspaper office located there. It was a
very tad aud sorrowful gang. The news
did not come in the right way,
and thought the fellows inside endeavored
to doctor up the reports to make tbem as
consoling as possible, the gang was a very
sick one. A spirit of sadness pervaded the
whole party. They saw the writing on the
wail and the bogus reports hung out were
far from satisfactory. The crowd tried to
put on & bold front and endeavored
to keep up their courage by
yelling, but the effort was a
very feeble one indeed. On the contrary
all around the Globe office were crazy with
enthusiasm as one bulletin after another
was put out, and the crowd having been sup.
piled with brooms by the Hon. P. H. Kelly,
started on a march about the streets, coming
around every half hour or so to
read the new bulletins as they
appeared in front of the Globb office. It was
a high old night and tbe noise and racket
made by the drums, tin horns and the band
served to make up a night of excitement and
turmoil such as is seldom witnessed. No pen
can describe it. It was a scene to be wit
nessed to be fully appreciated.
THE WARRIORS MEET.
About 11 o'clock in the evening the Re
publican crowd marched up from the Pioneer
Press office and made an attempt to go
through the Democratic crowd on Wabashaw
street but they did not get through to any ex
tent. Tbe Republicans came up Third street
with a few sickly looking transparencies,
one of them reading young men's Repub
lican club, and here and there a torch with
the evident intention to cut their way
through the Democrats that filled the whole
street in front of the Globe office.
| The Democratic crowd was • good
| natured and would probably have parted and
! allow their Republicans friends to go through
as they had before, but for the fact that the
1 Republicans when they got about opposite
j Donnelly's saloon, and within about fifty
j feet of the Democaatic crowd showed a dispo-
I sition to go through any way, whether the
I Democrats were willing or not. As stated,
I when the Republicans reached Don
| nelly's saloon they began to hasten
their steps. In front of them tbey carried a
big piece of Umber, and hurrying forward
started for the Democratic crowd, and wben
they struck it tbe Republicans stopped, and
then there was a general smash, and in a
moment more the Republicans fellows be
gan to scatter and more back towards Third
street. Near the bead of the Republican
column tbey carried a big transpar
ency about four feet - square, with
j Blame on one side and Logan on the other.
This was knocked into smithereens in a sec
ond and trampled under foot and the whole
i column was put into utter confusion quicker
| than it takes to tell the story. It was an ut
-1 ter and complete rout, and nothing was left
but a few old sticks, broken transparencies,
and disappointed Republicans.
On tbe corner of Wabashaw and
Third streets the Republicans tarried
a little and tried to reform. Tbey began to
! patch up their broken transoareneies and to,
I get their fellows Into form. While they
i were thus engaged the Democrats commenced
• a march down Wabashaw street to Third and
I the followers of Blame and ' Logan scattered
| like chaff and all there was lefi
of the transparencies was wholly
demolished and wiped out so that
nothing was left of them whatever, except a
few shreds of white cloth and a few old
sticks. Tbe discomfited Republicans tbat bad
been scattered so thoroughly gathered in
front of the poor old Republican sheet at the
corner of Third and Minnesota streets, and
formed ac&ln for another raid. In about
half an hour afterwards tbey came up Third
street again and turned into ' Wabashaw
protected by the police. At this time there
was an immense crowd in front of the
Globe office which filled the street from one
side to tbe other, a solid mass of . good na
tured fellows who felt too good over the news
that was coming in for the Democracy to
make any trouble. The police marched at
the bead of tbe Republican crowd and It was
probably out of proper respect for duly con
stituted authority, that a path was opened
and the gang allowed to slide through. It
was not a very wide opening as it was, and
It must be admitted that after the
police and the head of
the procession got through, there
was a sort of closing up of the Democratic
ranks which interfered with all of the Re-'
publicans marching along. Quite , a num
ber of apparently individual scrimmages en
sued and then the crowd resumed cheering
tor Cleveland and Hendricks.
STILL ANOTHER ATTEMPT
was made to rally the discomfited forces of
the P. P. and another eighteen foot scant
ling was obtained, and as many youthful
scions of office holders behind It formed a
line across tbe middle of tbe street opposite
the office of the organ of the g. o. p. In re
sponse to the heroic tones of a weak-lunged
bantling, armed with a sword of lath, about •
three score other warriors bold, also armed:
with formidable swords of lath, fell in and
tbe grand army of the Republicans gallantly
set out to conquer or to die. But alas, for j
the magnetism of the Plumed . Knight qual- j
ity, for scarcely one block bad been reached •
before the knees of the conquering, heroes i
began to weaken, and the quick march toned
down to a funeral march, for there was mu
sic Is the air, martial strains from tin ket
tle*, sheets of gal van ized iron, tin trumpets .
I and bonis, mingled with a mighty rolling
i wave of human voices, which whirled through
i tbe sir more like the roar of a cyclone than
! the whisperings of a summer zephyr. ' At j
j this time there must have been 1,500 people j
thronging Wabasha street " cheering lustily |
as the bulletin taansparency gave the N. Y.
Herald's estimate of Cleveland's ; plurality in j
New York . state. As the roar j
became louder, the funerel march j
grew more slow, till st last the grand enemy
of the Republicans came to a dead halt The !
about and din from Wabashaw street grew
louder and appeared to indicate that the
Democracy was moving toward Third street
Then there was a panic in the ranks! The
great leader lowered his sword of lath, and
the three-score warriors followed their leader
back to the office of the g. o. p. organ.
AFTER THE REPULSE.
After being so lnglorionsly repulsed by the
Cleveland boys the Blame contingent msde
a stamped 3 for the organ of the g. o. p. on
East Third street, where they proceeded to
erect a barricade In order to prevent the op
position procession from passing down tbe
street A number of store boxes and barrels
were collected and thes», together with a
couple of counters taken from Eavanagb's
auction stand on Cedar street,
mads a very formidable blockade.
Among the Incidents that took place at this
time was one that set tbe crowd into a roar.
One of the Cleveland broom brigade was
passing along the street with a lighted
broom the sparks from which Ignited a
squirrel skin cost worn by an onlooker. The.
coat blazed up Instantly and the man inside
of It did some tall hustling to disencumber
himself of the garment which was becoming
too hot for any comfort The police force
were Informed of the barricade and
Chief Clark detailed a posse of officers to
tear'it down, its removal being accomplished
with considerable difficulty. During the
; trouble st Bridge square a man
named Vltt was ..knocked down
and sustained painful Injuries.
Several other citizens were tapped during the
melee but fortunately no one was seriously
hurt
At the height of the confusion an express
wagon drawn by a score - of
men came rushing along the street.
It was filled with men and boys who beat a
terrible racket on sheet iron drums, and this :
with the racket and din made with horns and
other instruments of torture made confusion
a regular pandemonium.
MAYOR O'BRIEN ADDRESSES BOTH CROWDS.
At midnight the situation looked very seri
ous while the intense feeling engendered by
the conflicts in the early part of the evening
boded trouble. Mayor O'Brien came down
town about 11:30 o'clock in response to a
summons and held a consultation with Chief
of Police Clark, it being decided to try the
effect of moral suasion on the crowd. It was
conceded that In the event of a fight the
handful of police would stand no possible
show against tbe fury of the crowd, and the
mayor talked in person with several of the
ringleaders of each faction, urging them to
let up on tbe racket and go home. But the
rank and file of the crowds were bent on
having the fun out and the processions kept
whooping it up for all they were worth.
Mischief was in the air and the trouble was
brewing lively when Mayor O'Brien reached
the stronghold of the g. o. p. at the corner
of Third and Minesota streets.
The gang was yelling with a full
bead of steam on in the effort
to manufacture a little enthusiasm from the
gloomy returns received at that office. The
mayor mounted a barrel, and finally suc
j ceeded in gaining the attention of the crowd.
He addressed them in a sensible and for
cible speech, admonishing them that it would
not do to disgrace the fair fame of the city
by a repetition of even what had
already taken place. . It was a
notable fact be . said, that
tbe election in St Paul had passed off with
out a single arrest, and now that the honor
of the city was at stake all should lend their
best endeavors to preserve peace
and maintain a spirit of harmony.
Above all things a fight should be prevented;
this was a lively western city and In case of
a fight all were apt to take a hand; quite a
number of men, no, doubt bad Indulged
freely and their feelings were
apt to get the better of their judgments. Tbe
election had been close, but he was certain,
be said, tbat when the returns were sll In
the msn elected would be Inaugurated,
whether he wete Cleveland or Blame.
In conclusion he urged the crowd to dis
perse as a special favor to him, assuring them
in so doing they would receive the. applause
of all citizens and live to congratulate it
themselves.
Tbe advice had a good effect and directly
the crowd commenced to thin out
While this was going on the victorious
Democrats had secured a brass band and
started on a' street parade, marching out
Wabashaw to Seventh and down Seventh to
Jackson, down Jackson to Third and up
Third to Wshssbsw. Tbe msyor met that
procession on Third street and
made a similar speech, the
goal advice being generally heeded.
Aa they proceeded along, however, the gang
st the P. P. office anticipated their arrival at
this point and hastily erected a second bar
ricade of boxes and barrels. Nothing daunted
the Democrats marched forward and swept
the obstruction away with as much ease as if
the breastwork had been made of straw.
A yeU for Cleveland followed be shouts of
"burn, burn," and "dear Mr. Fisher," went
up from the crowd as they marched on.
This practically ended the warm festivities
of as ' red ' hot a night as
was ever seen in St Paul,
with the exception that the Cleveland boys
marched to the Globe office, where the late
returns of Cleveland's victory were read.
Having been requested by tbe authorities to
cease giving the returns as a means
or clearing thi streets, the crowds in front
of tbe offices' of both -'morning papers were
informed that no further reports would be
bulletined that night when the people dis
persed for their homes.
STOUT OF ONE OF TUB DEMOCRATIC DOTS WHO
MARCHED.
When the procession had been organized,
it proceeded in good order, abreast the whole
width of Wabashaw street, to Seventh, down
which they marched to the tune of "Marching
Through Georgia." . On reaching Sibley the
large body of men wheeled in military order
and marched to .Third street up which the
procession proceeded about two blocks,
when Mayor O'Brien advanced and
a halt was called. The ' shouts
for Cleveland and the noise of
the band mingled with the pounding of tin
pans and the clapping of laths together,
made it difficult for the mayor to be beard
farther than the front rank. He Informed
the leaders tbat he had succeeded in getting
the barricade removed from in front of the
P. P. office, and that the Republicans bad
agreed to disperse to tbeir homes. He en
treated his hearers to do likewise and not to
let their excited - feelings overcome
their good sense, and thus, perhaps,
cause serious consequences. The van
of the procession was willing to respect the
advice of the mayor, and the leaders pro
posed to turn the procession at Minnesota
and march by way of Fourth to - the Globe
office. .This resolution held good until the
turning poiut was reached, when the taunt
ing and irritating shouts of the Blame men
aroused the wicked spirit of the hitherto or
< der!}' legion, aud despite the valiant efforts
of the police and peacably disposed
Democrats, the procession took possession
of Third street with a rush and thiee . cheers
for Cleveland. Here tbey came to a halt
with a defiant shout, and one element only
was lacking to make trouble, there was no
opposition. It may not hare been the wisest
course, but it was undoubtedly a commend
able one. It was a : similar spirit to that
which moved men to deeds of Valor on the
field of battle, and It could no more be stayed
than the rush of the 'legions of ' Gettysburg
snd Shlloh. If - the Blame barricade had
been In front of that vanguard of Democratic

greater extremes. After lingering till satis

announcement that Cleveland bad assuredly

dispersion followed. - J. J. R.

MISCELLANEOUS NOTES.
One poor demented Individual got up on
a box in front of Ingersoll's store and de
| claimed against the police, complaining that
; the force aided the Democracy. This : chap
\ was a little wild. He did not appear to know
j that the police headed the Blame and Logan
| gang and helped it tbroqgh the solid Demo
cratic crowd on two occasions. If it had
not been for the police those poor
j little Republicans would have been wiped
j out and utterly annihilated.
Matters had warmed up so that about half
past 11 the mayor was telephoned to at his
residence and came down. His honor made
two or three speeches, first to one party and
then to the other, and they were good
speeches, too, and served the purpose
' Intended.
At half past eleven the Cleveland proces
sion appeared in front of the Globe Office
with a fine made transparency of brown
paper on which was lettered "Cleveland's
the man," "Cleveland will ba elected,"
"hurrah for Cleveland," while the Globe
counting room was raided on for old paper
to makeup "burn this" for tricks.
In the Cleveland procession a rough
wooden coffin was carried, illustrative of
. bow the plumed knight was laid out
At half past eleven the Democrats chipped
in $20 at the American bouse and hired the
Opera House band, which soon after led off
a procession of full one thousand men six
abreast up Wabashaw street.
On the arrival of the Cleveland procession
from a Jackson and Seventh street parade at
11 o'clock at thai juncture of Seventh and
Washington, a half dozen crockery hogs
beads were also found to be rolling in the
procession, which were lighted one by one to
light the boys on their way.
The Blame procession at 10*30 numbered
twenty big boys and as many little ones.
Officer Lynch, while waiting upon the
- Blame procession in front of the P. P. office,
j was accidentally hit in the ear by a burning
; broom, and bad that organ severely injured.
In the second attempt of the Blame pro
j cession to push through the crowd* in front
iof the Globe office, in the scrimmage one
Blainite had his head cot open with a piece
. of board, and a Cleveland man got a severe
i blow over the bead and face which made him
j seek a surgeon and get patched up.

WASHINGTON.
THE FEELING IN THE CAPITAL CITT.
Washington, Not. 6. — The Democrats of
this city fired 100 guns to-night in celebra
tion of the Democratic victory which they
think assured. They afterward formed in
procession and paraded the streets with
bands and torches for several hours. Sec
retary McPberson, of the congressional Re
publican committee, received a telegram
to-night from Chalmers, Mississippi, saying
he would contest the election of his congres
sional competitor on the ground of fraud.
There has been more anxiety and excite
ment here to-day than any time since Tues
day morning. Large crowds here surrouded
the bulletin boards all day, and altogether
the Democrats regard Cleveland's election
as assured, the Republicans do not concede,
and there is a general feeling of suspense
snd anxiety to bear from the remaining
precincts of New York state.
BLAINE STILL CONFIDENT.
Augusta, Nov. 6. — Blame's friend's and
family were greatly astonished and annoyed
by the reports about' bis health. Blame is in
unusually robust health und excellent spir
its. The Democrats seemed quite confident
In tbe election of their ticket and to-night
celebrated their victory. Tie address of Chair
man Manning as to the rote of New York
conflicts with all advices received by Blame.
Blame said be bad treated th* Republican
nomination as an honorable trust confided
to him without solicitation, and had there
fore spared no time and no effort to secure
. its success. He had full confidence he bad
been fairly elected, and trusted every
effort would be made to vindicate the sacred
ness of the ballot. "To quote my own saying
on an imports nt occasion," added Mr. Blame,
any party in the United States can bear to
be defeated, but no party will bear to be de
frauded " Mr. Blame freely expresses the
judgment that the majority of votes in N*w
York has been cast for the Republican elec
toral ticket He thought the returns and
comparisons with the former votes ciesriy
established this conclusion .

she carried it across the street to a neigh
bor's house, left it and calling to her neigh
bor to come over and see her husband whom
she had killed, returned to ber own house
and shot herself through the temple. She
will die. It appears her husband lost some
property a short time ago, which made him
remorse and sullen, and be accused his wife
of infidelity. This seems to have unbalanced
her mind. At the time of the shooting be

thought he was going to leave her.

the FEELING in NEW tore..
[Special Telegram to the Globe,)
New Yoax, Nov. 6.— The crowds about the
bulletins to-day were Democratic crowds.
In the morning everything seemed to Indi
cate that New York state had gone for Cleve
land, and the strongest Republican bulletin
boards put up no reports at all. On the |
other hand, the bulletins favoring Cleveland
favored bim a great deal. Some |
of them announced his election as positive [
and gave him New York state by 6,000 plu- !
rality. Others were satisfied to say that he i
had positively carried the state by 3,000,
while others again said 1,600 was as much as
he could expect. The Dally News bulletin
had his picture as
"toe national choice"
and some live roosters in cages to supple
ment the supply of the campaign woo.i cuts.
All the peddlers peddled only Cleveland's
pictures, badges and buttons, and the car
toons that were liberally sold In the crowd
were bits at Blame.
After this bulletins came out in
favor of Blame, and the Republican national
committee claimed his election by 4,000.
This enraged the supporters of Mr. Cleve
land, aud they swarmed in printing house
square, and the roaring, shouting, cheering
crowd of men and boys that made it a bedlam
for two days was there again. The voices
were as stern and the cheers as earnest as
before, but the good nature which had
marked other gatherings . was
gone. Two men would come
together and strike a blow or two, ami then
the crowd like a great wave would undulate
toward them and they would be swept away.
One of the Cleveland bulletins ran out this
immense letter:
Trying to steal the state Suspicions of
Republican rascality. Jay Gould suspected.
As dusk came on Blaiue bulletins grew fa
vorable and more favorable v" to
Blame's chances and it was announced
that he was 613 ahead of Cleveland with
fifty-seven more precincts to hear from and
that most of these precincts were strongly
Republican. Then a bulletin was run out
which said that the Republican national
committee had issued an address
in which they said that the latest returns
warranted them in announcing the triumph
ant election of Blame an 1 Logan. All this
added fuel to the fire, and men shouted and
yelled until they grew hoarse. To off-set
this the Cleveland bulletins announced that
Cleveland had surely carried th- state.
7p. m. — The city Is fairly crazy with ex
citement this evening. The cry of fraud is
heard all over the city. The reports, which
nobody whose word is respected, denies, that
a Republican steal is to be attempted in In
diana, as well as in New York, have aroused
the deepest indignation, not only
among Democrats, but among
tbe thousands of honorable Republicans
who prefer — SB—St to the further dishonor of
the party with which they have acted. The
meaning of ''order," telegraphed in cipher
by the Republican national committee to the
Republican state committee of Indiana, that
the Hoosicr state must be captured at all
hazards, has been growing on the metropoli
tan mind since It was published in the
Herald in a late edition this morning, and
fears of this proposed western
steal are intensified by the apparent unwil
lingness of the Republicans to concede Indi
ana to the Democrats. Gould is still sus
pected of being the leader of- the alleged con
spiracy, and the fact that ex-Governor Cor
nell has spent much time with him to-day Is
very significant to many Republicans who
have known Cornell and have kcu his
measure.
NIGHT scenes IN new TOItK.
New York, Nov. 6 . — A crowd of enthu
siastic Democrats, headed by a band, started
up Fifth avenue to pass the headquarters of
the national Republican committee. There
was a large crowd in the street and trouble
was feared, but was avoided by Sergeant
Chapman wbo had charge of the police around
the headquarters, who were told the prome
naders should be arrested for marching with
out a permit. But wiser councils prevailed
and the crowd passed in peace, but wrth a
deal of noise. As the night grew the excite
ment increased. The Baft man boos lobby
was crowded, and tin sume at the Fifth ave
nue hotel, Brunswick and Windsor. As the
night grew the crowd diminished slowly.

GUARDING TUB WESTERN UNION.
New York, Nov.. 6. — Twelve uniformed
policemen were on duty near the Western
Union building this evening, and Capt.
Berghold, of the Twenty-seventh precinct,
said nobody had requested the services of
the men there, that he bad only taken the
step M a precautionary measure. He with
drew them soon after midnight, as there
seemed to be no occasion
for their pressure. A crowd of at least 600
buys and a few men marched down Broad
way to the Western Union building just be
fore., midnight shouting; '•No, no, Blame
won't gol" and cheering Cleveland. In
front of the telegraph —Bee tUc crowd con
tinued their cheering. A dozen policemen
scattered the crowd.
BLAINE'S HEALTH.
New York, Nov. 6. — The following was
received at national headquarters this even
ing:
-Acgcsta, Maine, Nov. 6. — To the Hon. B.
F. Jones, - chairman national Republican
committee. New York: "I never was in bet
ter health in my life than lam to-day. All
rumors to the contrary are malicious inven
tions. (Signed.) James G. Blainb.
ILLINOIS.
Special Telegram to the Globe.)
Chicago, Nov." 6. — The excitement here
to-day has been unabated, and though the
Democrats were not so elated to-night as
they were last, they are still far . from ■ cast
down. Interest, of course, centers in New'
York, and the belief Id general that tho offi
cial returns will show that Cleveland carries
the state by a good plurality.
The Democrats congregated around
the newspaper offices on Fifth avenue,
which is the Printing house square of Chi
cago, and kept up a constant round of cheer
ing for the president elect, and about every
half hour a procession of enthusiastic Demo
crats would pass, bearing aloft high pictures
of Cleveland and Hendricks, and keeping
step to the words: "No, No, No ' 76. This
spirit of determination not to submit to any
such Republican frauds as were perpetrated
In that year seems to be very strong among
the Democrats elsewhere, and rumors that
such a course Is contemplated In New York
arouse the most intense indignation. The
feeling against the Woolen Union and As
sociated Press is very strong, and but little
significance other than that of fraudulenf in
tentions is attached to the bulletins that coma
through the channel.
Chicago, Nov. Returns from eighty
one counties in Illinois give Blame 39,123
Cleveland 23,294. The same counties in
1880 gave Garfield 56,933, Hancock 23.243.
There are twenty-one counties unreported.
Blame's plurality id 15,820. A Republican
loss of 25.061, compared with Garfield's
vote of , IS3O, and a Democratic «-aia
0f 5,873 compared with Hancock's "vote
In ISSO. The returns from the Butler and
Prohibition vote are meager, hut the differ
ence between the Republican loss and Dem
ocratic gain, 29,185, may have gone to those
parties.
Additional returns from Cook county,
leaving only seven country precincts outside
of Chicago as missing, give Blame apluralitv
of 6,024. The missing precincts In 1330
gave Garfield 1,4." , Hancock 230.

ONE SENATOR AND FIVE REPRESENTATIVES
GAINED.
Pensacola, Fla., Nov. 6. West Florida
official returns this far stained the esti
mate Democratic majority of 1,250. So far
one senator and five representatives have
been gained by the Democrats. Escambia

Detroit, Mich,, Nov. 9. — The Democrat
state committee places the Republican ma
jority at about 1,500. The Fnc Press has re
ports from a large part of the state, luclud
| Ing the upper peninsula, which is strongly
I Republican, and -tales that the estimates in
| dicate a small fusion majority, but will take
the official count to decide. They estimate
the fusion element of Cleveland at 162,000
and Butler 3,500. As fusion was an agree
ment to divide the electoral vote proportion
at.lv to the popular vote, the fusion victory
would giro Cleveland ten, Butler two, and
Blame one by default.
Detroit, Nov. 6. — From reports of 1,083
precincts ami estimates of remaining pre
cincts the Detnocratlcjbtate committee places
the Republican plurality at about 1,500. The

"the Republicans 9,000 majority, giving them
the state by about 1.500. Their governor, to •
faras heard from, is a little behind. The Re
