Tbo foots we.publish this morning atb
(lie most cheerintrwe havo bad since
the thirteenth of September, and are
mMcneouragIng. The Howards, who
are etUl vigilant in caring for the
interests of the city, give the to
tal number of cases of yellow-i
ever under treatment, as one hundred
and sixty-seven, and only one new case
yesterday. LausDco! The deaths yes
terday from yellow-fever were
only four, and two from other
c&uwu, making a total of six,
two raore than our general average per
day. SThia looks as if we were getting
back 'to onr normal condition, and
gives us good ground for urging ab
sentees to return and resume their busi
ness. There is now no danger. The
weather continues most unfavorable for
tie spread of the disease, and all the
indications point to an entire cessation
of the fever within this week.

entire vote was cast and the voting was
close. All is quiet

Jackson, Miss., November 4. But
little interest is snown in the election
to-day. From all quarters, the vote is
reported as on.vthird short The falling
oil in JacKson is from 500 to 900 votes.
Ames's majority in tbe city is estimated
at 300, which is a small Republican re
duction. The independent candidates
for county offices are numerous. The
Democrats had no ticket in this county.
There is much delay in counting.

NEW YORK.
If EW YORK CITY.
New York, November 4. The elec
tion of the Tammany county ticket is
generally conceded, with doubts about
Donahue fur tbe supreme court The
contest is exciting only in the assembly
and senate districts. Tom Murphy and
Colonel Lester are said to have charged
Arthur, Sheridan, Shank and the com
missioner. Van iNort, and two other
representative Republicans, with desert
ing tne combination tteset, and giving
their suDDort to William Walsh, for
county clerk, against the Republicans
and the Appollo hall candidate, Jacob
7lf Daft.Knn fltl i n Kt,Unfi'ni la
reported as threatening to call off his
Republican voters rrom the Mcuoole
combination candidate for sheriff, and
he in turn is said to be urging his fol
lowers to defeat Murphy's plans, and to
vote for Walsh. The fight in some of
the senate and assembly districts is bit-
ter. and the Dollce commissioners are
showing their hands. Some of the Tam
many inspectors nave been arrested,
and Apollo hall Democrats substituted.
This is in the interest or the comnma
tion. Few fights have occurred in the
several districts. Both inspectors and
poll-clerks failed to make their appear
ance at tne appointed time, dui tne va
cancies were speedily filled by others,
wno were sworn in.
The State election returns are coming
in by townships and districts. Sixty-
rour or these show the total .Republican
majorities to beSSSl; Democratic major
ities, 2lo; net K'puwican majority,
11S6. The vo'e for secretary of state,
compared with the same vote in 1S71, is
used as the basis of comparison, and
shows the total Republican gains to be
6S3; total Democratic gains, 2162; net
Democratic gains, 1479.
s:io p.m. ;no uennite returns have
been received from any part of this city.
It is claimed the city nas gone Tammany-Democratic
by from 15,000 to
20,000 majority. If the latter figures,
prove correct, there is not much doubt
but that tbe State has gone Democratic
by several thousand.
The election or b. b. Uox to congress
is conceded. Returns from Brooklyn
indicate that Hunter, Democrat, for
mayor, has been elected, and the Demo
cratic majority for secretary of state will
probably reach five thousand. Addi
tional towns from the interior ot the
State give nett Republican majority of
220; nett Democratic gain, 1393. Nett
nepuoiican majority in tne n towns
thus far 33S6; a nett Democratic gain of
2372.
Interior towns additional to tbose sent.
give the net Republican majority at
3620; net Republican majority in total
of one hundred and eighty-two towns
and cities, 5229. This includes Syracuse
city, with a Republican majority of
1W7, and Auourn city, .Republican ma
jority of 736. Nothing up to 10:15 p.m.,
from the city election.
Kensealier county gives a Republican
majority of 1000. Thirty-nine addition
al towns and districts give a net Repub
lican majority of 571 ; the net Republi
can majority in Zil towns and districts
is 5S01. Poughkeepaie City gives a
Democratic majority of 87, a Democrat
ic gain over 1S72 of 836. In this city,
so far, the vote upon tbe State ticket is
greatly mixed, owing to the attempted
combination between Apollo hall and
the Republicans. Despite the ear'y
closing of the polls, and the expectation
of early returns from even remote parts
of the city the result of the election has
been slow, tbe delay being due to the
necessity that the officials are under ot
canvassing very long lists of names em
braced in the general ticket. At this
hour the returns of the vote for sheriff I
are still lacking in a number of dis
tricts, but the total iigures received so
far leave no doubt of the election of
Conner for sheriff, and Walsh for county
clerk by very large majorities. The
vote for sheriff thus far stands: Conner,
Democrat 21.992, McCool, 11,548. For
county clerk: Walsh, Democrat, 16,806,
Paterson, Republican, 12,456.
Returns from overone-third of the city
Indicate a majority for Conner for sheriff
of 25,000. and Walsh for county clerk,

MASSACHUSETTS
bos row.
Boston, November 4. The Massa
chusetts State election is proceeding
Suietly to-day. Ex -Mayor Gaston, the
lemocratic candidate for governor, is
receiving a handsome vote m .Boston
.Scattering returns rrom an parts
of the State, showing a rather
light vote as compared to 18'
and 1S72, and indicating the re
election of Governor Washburn by from
800 to 1000 plurality. The Anti-prohi-
mtion was an element or strength to
the Democrats, and their candidate.
Mr. Gaston, received a heavy vote in
several larger cities and towns from the
opponents of anti-prohibition. The
contest for State senator in the
fifth Suffolk district resulted in
the election of Jonathan A Lane
on the Republican citizen's ticket by
over looo majority over John r. bteven-
son, who was a candidate on both the
regular Democratic and Republican
tickets. In the second Middlesex dis
trict General N. P. Banks was also
elected senator overihe regular Republi
can candidate by a handsome plurality.
The returns for governor from sixty-two
towns, root up lor vvashburn, li.b'Jo:
Gaston, 7605. The vote of
Boston, with the exception of three
wards, returns from which are not in.
gives Gaston about 1600 plurality. Low
ell gives Washburn 15S4, Gaston 2170.
Worcester gives Washburn 2162, Gaston
bU, and also elects a Democratic sena
tor and members of the bouse of repre
sentatives. The vote of 113 cities and
towns foots up: Washburn, 33,023;
Gaston, 30,947. Last year the same
towns gave Washburn, 46,160; Bird,
24,119. Washburn's plurality last
year was about lio.wo, which the
returns so rar indicate has been
cut down about one half at this election.
The Republican ticket for State officers
is elected, and the Republican council
lor ticket together with a Republican
majority m both brancaes or tne legis
lature. Banks's plurality for State sen
ator is over 1500. Chas. Hale is elected
to the legislature from Boston by a large
majority.
SIICKIGAH.
DETROIT.
Detroit, November 4. The muni
cipal election in this city passed off very
quietly. Twelve precincts heard from
give Moffat, Republican, for mayor, 6S0
majority. His majority will probably
reach 1000. The Republicans elect city
clerk, attorney, director of poor. The
Democrats elect police justice, and pro
bably treasurer and j'ustice of the peace.
The Republicans will have a majority
of one or two in tbe city council- and a
malonty or the board or estimate.
Meagre returns from the special election
in the congressional district leaves the
matter in doubt. The" cities of Grand
Haven. Yonia and Holland, and fifteen
towns give Williams, Republican, a ma
jority of 200, a large Republican loss
over the vote of 1S72.
12 sr. The vote in the fifth congres
sional district is very light and extreme
ly close. Indications are that Williams,
Republican, is elected by a majority not
exceeding 200 or 300. Grand Rapids
gives Comstock, Democrat, 351 majori
ty; Grand Haven, 83; Muskegon, 173;
J onia, 114; Spring Lake, 46. Willians
has 110 majority in Holland, 145 in
Allegan, 30 in Lowell, 61 in Saugatuck.
Other towns in Allegan county will
raise his majority to euu.
In Detroit, Moffat's majority for
mayor will reach nearly 1500. The Re
publicans will carry the entire city
ticket, except the police justice and jus
tice or tne peace, with treasurer m
doubt chances in favor of the Repub-
cans.
"WISCONSIN-

Milwaukee. November 4. The
first ward of the city of Milwaukee,
Taylor, Democrat, 468 majority; seventh
ward, Taylor 297; fourth ward, Taylor
112; eleventh ward, Taylor 523; sixth
ward, Taylor SS0; ninth ward, Taylor

The city of Milwaukee complete gives
Taylor, the Democratic candidate for
governor, 8300 majority; county es
timated at SOOO. All the Democratic
assemblymen in the county elected.
The daily Sentinel, the Washburn organ,
estimates from the way returns are
coming in, that Taylor will carry the
State by 5000 majority. Prominent
Republicans now concede "W ashburn's
defeat
In the towns representing a total
vote of 2S000 Taylor's gain is 3400, ex
clusive of the vote of Milwaukee, in
which Taylor gains 5000.

ILXINOIS.
CAIRO.
Caibo, November 4. The election
passed off quietly. Politics were ignored,
the interest being chiefly centered in the
vote on the county commissioners who
favored or opposed the further issue of
bonds in aid of the St Louis narrow
guage railroad. The Brass county judge
and Lynch county clerk are probably
re-elected. The votes are not likely to
be counted in time to give the result to
night CHICAGO.
Chicago, November 4. Returns
from the city election come in slowly,
but enough Is known to insure the elec
tion of the entire people's ticket over
the citizens', or law-and-order ticket,
by a majority of five to seven thousand,
and twelve out of twenty aldermen on
tbe same ticket. The former ticket
was headed by H. D. Colvin for mayor,
and the latter by L. Bond, the present
acting mayor. One of the principal
points at issue was tbe bunday liquor
law, which will doubtless be defeated.
Verv few reports are in from tho

Pabis, November 4. In the Bazalne
court-martial to-day, the evidence relat
ed wholly to the non-receipt by mar
shal McMahon, on August 23d, of Ba-
zame's alleged dispatch dated tne twenty-first
The deposition of McMahon
on this point was read. The marshal
states that he received a dispatch from
Bazalne dated August 19th, giving an
account of the battte of St Privat, and
indicating that he still intended march
ing northward. In consequence of this
Information deponent determined to
march in the direction of Montmedy
instead of Paris. He received no other
dispatch from Bazaine.
McArrat, inspector or telegraphs, tes
tified that certain dispatches, which
were retransmitted from Longry, on
the twenty-second of August, were com
municated to Paris, where they ap
parently stopped.
M, M. Rubasse and Mies swore that
they were dispatched by Colonel Stoffel
to obtain information concerning .Ba
zalne. They received, on the twenty
second of August, four dispatches, which
they forwarded to Stoffel by telegraph.
On returning with the original dis
patches, on the twenty-fifth, to Rethel,
they snowed tnem to uoionei uaizac, oi
McMahon's staff, and he ordered them
to be given to Stoffel, saying at the

contents, they having been received
there by telegraph two days previously.
uuKe d'Aumaie cautioned tne wit
nesses to be careful; but they persisted
in their story. They were confronted by
Colonel Dalzac, who positively contra
dicted their statements.
The Dominion Parliament,
Ottawa, November 4 In parlia
ment last night the debate was con
tinued by Sir John A. MacDonald, who
delivered a vigorous and exhaustive
speech lasting five hours, and was only
concluded at two o'clock this morning.
He reviewed the constitutional question
and appointment of commission, and
spoKe or worn done by tne royal com
mission, and observed that he relied
upon a report, and considered it
beneath him to vindicate the charac
ter of commissioners. Judge Wil
son, a long political opponent
or his had declared that he saw nothing
to criminate tbe government Had he
(Sir John) yielded to-the black-mailing
attempt of McMuller.thesecharges would
never nave been heard of. He referred
to the charges made against him in con
nection with the Washington treaty, and
to his triumphant refutation of them. He
alluded to the policy of bis government
respecting Nova Scotia and British Co
lumbia, challenging the leader of
the opposition to appoint a committee
to investigate the whole question of ex
penditure in reference to the election.
and expressed confidence that the re
sult would show that more members on
the opposition side owe their seats to
corrupt means than on tho ministerial
side. He strongly blamed Sir Hugh
Allen for the delay in apprising his
American friends of tho fact that the
government had determined to have
nothing to do with them, and would
not screen the living at the expense
of the dead, but neither Sir George
Cartier nor any other single minister
was able to bind the governmeni. He
defended the directors of the Pacific
railway, and quoted English precedents
for his own handling of the election
fund. He expressed regret that Mr.
Huntington hail not been before the
royal commission to cross-examine. He
defied his opponent to show a line in
the Pacific charter which bore out the
charge that Sir Hugh Allan hasobtained
anypreferenceoradvantage.Hedeclared
himself equal to victory or defeat, and
appealed to the house to support the
man who has spent his lifetime in the
service of Canada. After the premier
had taken his seat, Hon. . Mr. Blake
made a few remarks and continued the
debate. On the opening of the house
to-day every member was in the capitol,
with the exception of Louis Riel, mem
ber for the provence of Manitoba.
