Love, were in the woods hunting. Love's
father-in-law pulled the tail of one of the
dogs belonging to his son-in-law. This v%s
followed by denunciations from Love, who
declared that no man of honor would pull a
dog's tail. A general fight ensued, In which
Love's father-in-law, brother, and brother
in-law were seriously and probably fa
tally wounded by Uira. He himself received
TTslight wound. The weapon used by Love
was a Colt's navy revolver. One of the
other men was armed with a 6inall posted.
The affair creates great excitement in the
neighborhood In which it occurred. Love

Both parties claimed Ohio by a small ma

tarns seemed to indicate a partial, if not a
complete, Democratic Tlctory. Despatches
to the late edition of to-day's Gazette will
doubtless tell the fall story. Meanwhile, a
summary of the result, aa given In tho morn

FROM COLUMBUS.
favor
Cblumbus, O., Oct. 9.—The battle to
day has never been approached in general
interest, and tbe largest vote was polled of
any contest in the State sinco the war. The
campaign closed with no appreciable ad
vantage on either side, the Republicans
claiming the election of Foraker by a small
majority, while the Democrats were san
guine of giving Hoadly by the same majority
that Secretary Newman received last fall.
The temperance agitation that has swept
the State had the effect of giving tbe
canvass a most unwelcome uncertainty, and
witnin the past few days neither party were
very loud in their boasts of wbat they ex
pected to do. Th* dav was a beautiful one,
and from present indications an unprece
dented vote was polled.
Telegrams received by both committees
during the day were to the effect that every
body was voting, and this fact tended to
encourage Republicans, who have claimed
that on a large poll tbe State would be car
ried by that party. In ^w'umbua the fight
centered on the Legislature, it being admit
ted that Hoadly would have at least 2,000
majority here.
THE GOOD NEWS.
Telecrams were received from Cincinnati
early in
the evening predicting 12,000 major
ity for Hoadly in Hamilton county. One
came Irom Cuyulioga predicting3,000 major
ity, with the complete success of the Demo
cratic legiblative ticket in both counties.
This was the first news received, and the
Democrats were jubilant, foreshadowing as
it did, the
Hoadly.
were in the Board of Trad-» rooms, Hon.
John G. Thompson presiding, and as the
telegrams were received the enthusiastic
Democrats yelled themselves hoarse.
The Republicans held the fort in the City
Hall, Chairman Oglevec presiding. On ac
count of the heavy vote returns came in
slowly aud lor several hours no definite in
formation as to the final result could be
gained. Alternate Democratic and Repub
lican gains ran through all reports and It
was 10 o'clock before any news of valr.e was
received. The first computation of seven
precincts from different part* of tbe fit ate
showed a Democratic gain of 1,281. In the

FROM CLEVELAND.
Cleveland, ()., Oct. 9. —The weather
has been warm aud pleasant to-day and the
excitement over the election was greater
than Been in teu years. The fight has been
very close. Much scratching of tickets and
trading of votes was noticed in both the
city and county.
W. G. Rose, Republican candidate for
Lieuteuant-Governor, developed unusual
strength iu all localities in this city. Many
Irish Democrats worked for him at the poils.
The vote is the largest ever polled in the
city or county aud as far âf heard from
everything has been orderly in the northern
Ohio towns.
At the Thirteenth ward polls this morn

rested for distributing illegal tickets in the

Burnett's bookkeeper.
TOE ISSUE AND THE VOTE.
Columbus, O., Ôct. 9.—Th© election to :
day was for State offices entire, with tho ex
ception of Secretary of State, and for mem
bers of the Legislature—which will elect a
United States Senator to succeed Pendle
ton. The election to-day was also on the
ption or rejection of three amendments
he Constitution, as follows:
The first pro csed amendment is intended
to reorganize the judiciary of State; the
other two proposed amendments relate to
liquor traffic and are in the iollowing lan
guage:
First—''The additional section," in and
with section 18 oi the schedule, shall be
pealed, and there shall be substituted for it
the following:
The General Assembly, State of Ohio,
shall regulate the traffic iu intoxicating
liquors so as to provide against evils result
ing therefrom; aud its power to levy taxes
or assessments thereupon is not limited by
any provision of this constitution.
The other proposed amendment is as fol
lows: Second—" the additional section"—
in und with section t igliteen of the schedule
shall be repealed, and theie shall be substi
tuted for it the following:
''The manufacture of and thç traffic In In
toxicating liquors to be us xl as a beverage
ere forever prohibited and the General As
sembly shall provide by law for the enforce
ment of the provision."
Amendments to the constitution to carry
must receive a majority of all votes cast for
Governor. The comparison of returns to
night will be made with the vot© for Secre
tary of State, Newman.
Returns from 165 wards and precincts
show a net Republican gain of 1,186 in a to

county.
Warren gives a Republican majority of

second amendment Is carried in the city by
25 majority. This will make Trumbull

for the second amendment.
DaWon, O., Oct. 9.—At this hour—11 p.

Columbus, O., Oct. 9.—Forty-one wards
and precincts show a net Republican gain of
446 In a total vote of 6,127. The same ratio
of gall s will give Foraker 5,000 majority.
The Indications are for a close contest. The
second amendment has 2,450 majority in the
above precincts.
Secretary Newman had a majority of 19,
115 last year. There are 1,819 wards ar.d
precincts in the 8tate. Returns from 24
wards and precincts show a net Republkan
gain of 291. Tho First amendment gets 325,
and the second 1,916, out of 3,089 votes.
The returns are nearly all from country
precincts and small towns.
Fifty .four wards and product* show a net
Republican gain of 557, out of a total of
10,417. The first amendment gets 1,394 and

BOMB LATE ESTIMATES.
[Baltimore Sun Specials.]
Columbus, Ocfc. 9.—11.80 p. m.—Returns
are coming in very slowly. Calculations
based on those received at 11 o'clock disap
point both parties, and are not regarded as
giving a fair idea of the result. The Repub
lican hopes from the rural districts are not
realized, for from 600 wards and precincts,
representing one-ninth of the State, and
quite half of them from rural district, where
Immense Republican gains were promised,
the gains make tbe Republicans still several
thousand votes short of overcoming the
Democratic majority.
On the other band the few returns from
Cincinnati, where, according to Democratic
calculations, an immense majority was tobe
polled, indicate Republican gains, and the
Republican chairman telegraphs that the
German wards did not, after all, snow
Foraker heavily under. Word comes from
Cleveland that no returns may be expected
belore midnight. Cincinnati will probably
be equally slow. This indicates free use of
the pencil on ballots.
Midnight indications from official returns
of Hamilton county at this hour are that
Hoadly will bave not less than 3,000 major
ity; that the entire Highland House Demo
cratic ticket has been elected, with possibly
one or two exceptions, on county officers,
and that the prohibition amendments have
received a larger vote than anyone antici
pated. This estimate is based on the general
tenor of the very few official returns In Irom
the 95 precincts in the county.
If the ratio of returns to midnight is kept
up the Democrats will cairy the »tato. One
sixth or tho State shows Republican net
gains of but 1,658. They ought to reach at
least 3,500 to meet the Republican expecta
tion, for they cover fully half of the rural
districts, on which tho Republicans had de
pended to elect Foraker. At this writing
the Democrats will win by 9,000 majority if
they can hold the majorities at Cincinnati
and Cleveland, which are only beginning to
come in. Returns from eight wards in those
cities, however, 6how a net Republican gain
of 500.
Returns from 12 voting precincts ij Day

Cincinnati, Oct. 9.— The veto of this

by returns from a few points in other parts

Des Moines. Iowa, Oct. 9.— -The weather
was fine all over the State to day, being
warm and clear, a condition which had
always favored the Republicans. A very
heavy vote wa6 polled everywhere, and
everything was orderly, although thefe was
a very deep feeling on all sides. During the
morning there was a report of a fusion in
several portions of the State on the Demo
cratic aud Greenback tickets, but these re
ports could be traced to no certain au
thority. In Des Moines a very fccavy vote
was polled, but very quietly. A great many
ladles were at work and had lunches and
coffee near the polls.
The returns, as they come in, havo been
compared with the vote lor secretary of
state In 1882, when the Republican plurality
was 36,000, and majority over all between
5,000 and G,000. Owing to the length of the
ticket, the count has been slow and late.

of 23. Stiles, Republican, for Congress, is

Tho Third ward gives a Republican majority
on the straight ticket of 139, a Republican
gain of 127. In tbe Fourth ward the Re
publican majority is 278, a Republican net
gain of 72. Twenty one precincts show a

Sherman has 529 majority.
