THE TALK IN THE HOTEI, CORRIDORS.
Atlanta, November 4.—[Special.]—
Clark Howell. Speaker.
W. H. Fleming, Speaker pro tem.
Mark Hardin, Clerk.
Jim Smith, of Coffee, Messenger.
That’s what, it will be tomorrow.
Fleming withdrew from the race for
Speaker this morning, as I wired yon last
night he would do, in favor of Clark
Howell.
Jackson, of Heard, the ex-president of
the. State Alliance, announces definitely
that he is out of the race—or, as he in
sists. that he has never been formally an
nounced, that he will not enter the race.
Cntts, of Sumter, will probably with
draw before the balloting.
That leaves Clark Howell and Bob Ber
ner, and Howell’s election is a mathemati
cal certainty.
It is impossible to tell anything just yet
about the presidency of the Senate. The
caucussiug will be lively tonight, and
something definite may come of that.
It may be after all, though, an open
field and a fair fight.
The long time Secretary, Bill Harris, of
Worth, will have no opposition.
The vote in the Congressional election
in this county will be close. The Repub
licans are polling their full strength, and
the Democrats are staying at home.
There is no doubt, I suppose, of Liv
ingston’s election. The politicians say so.
Saunders has nothing to lose in any
event. His defeat for Congress would cer
tainly do two things—Defeat Gordon and
elect Livingston to the United States Sen
ate.
ALLIANCE CAUCUS.
Atlanta, November 4.—[Special.]—
There was an Alliance caucus tonight, 110
votes were represented. Howell, Cutts
and Berney were proposed for Speaker.
They agreed finally upon Clark Howell.
The caucus also decided upon Trammell,
of Whitfield, for Speaker pro tem of the
House.

FIR8T DISTRICT.
Savannah, November 4.—Lester car
ried the First district against Doyle by
6,000 majority. The voting in Savannah
was light, only 3,800 votes being polled.
Lester received 2,000, Doyie 900. The ne
groes did not vote anything like their
strength, on account of dissatisfaction,and
Doyle got very few Irish votes. Many of
the country precincts voted solidly for
Lester. The weather was fine, and the
election passed off quietly. The negroes
were given judges at all the boxes and no
trouble was experienced.
Brunswick, November 4 —The election
here today was an overwhelming Demo
cratic victory. There was no election held
in Glynn county outside of Brunswick.
Sjjeven hundred and sixty-seven votes were
polled. Lester received 477 majority.
SECOND DISTRICT,
Macon, November 4.—Returns from
the Second district show the re-eiection of
Turner, Democrat, by a large majority
over C. S. Matteson, the Republican can
didate.
Boston, November 4.—The election
passed off very quietly here today, and a
large vote was polled. A number of our
best citizens who paid their taxes and
requested to be registered last year, find
themselves not registered, and their votes
were refused in the election today. This
has caused much disstisfaction and com
plaint. A small vote was cast in this
precinct. The vote is, Turner 52, Matte-
son 20. No excitement or disturbance.
THIRD DISTBICT.
Americus, November 4.—The vote here
was Crisp 230; Gibson . In the dis
trict Crisp was elected by a large majority.
The negroes took little interest in the
election, and in many cases voted for
Crisp.
FOUTH DISTRICT.
The Democrats of Muscogee county are
not laggards. They know their duty, and
are not slow to do what good Democrats
should do on the day of election.
The result of the election yesterday
shows this to be true.
The polls were opened at the court
house at 7 o’clock yesterday morning,
with Justices Bowles, ltedd and Williams
as managers.
The voting began at once, and contin
ued steadily until the polls closed at 6
o’clock last night. There was no rush or
exciting scenes about the polls during the
day.
The total number of votes cast in the
city was 1047, of which number Don.
Charles L. Moses, Democratic candidate,
received 910, and Mr. Walter II. Johnson,
the Republican candidate, received 137.
At Bozeman’s district 51 votes were
polled for Mr. Moses and 18 for Mr. John
son.
At Nance’s district 40 votes were cast
for Mr. Moses and 22 for Mr. Johnson.
The poll were not opened at Upatoie.
The returns were not received from Ed.

NINTH DISTRICT.
Atlanta, November 4.—There was a
good fight in this district, but T. E. Winn,
the Democratic candidate, sweeps the
field, beating Darnell and Pickett com
bined. The full returns are not corn-
certain to give the Democratic standard- j pl«ted, but there is no doubt of the result,
bearer a rousing majority. | an< i Winn wins the prize.

TAYLOR FOR MOSES.
Butler, Ga., November 4.—[Special.]
The election in Taylor passed off quietly.
At Butler Moses received 256 votes and
Johnson 44. The other precincts will
give Moses a good majority.
COWETA COUNTY.
Newnan, Ga., November 4.—[Special.]
—Democracy is triumphant in Coweta and
Carroll counties. Coweta gives Moses 550
majority, official. Carroll will give Moses
2,000 majority.
THE VOTING IN CARROLL.
Carrollton, Ga., November 4.—[Spe
cial.]—The vote at this precinct was 1,050,
900 of which were for Moses. The esti
mated majority for Moses in the county is
1,750. The vote in the county was light
JOHNSON MAY GET MERIWETHER.
Greenvii.le, Ga., November 4.—[Spe
cial.]—The vote at Greenville today was
as follows: Johnson 339, Moses 269. Only
two other precincts heard from, one of
which gives Johnson 20 majority and the
other Moses 11 majority. The county will
doubtless give Johnson a majority.
Note.—The remaining counties in the
district, Marion, Troup, Chattahoochee
and Talbot, were not heard from last
night. The polls were not opened at
Jamestown, Chattahoochee county. A
conservative estimate of the majority of
Mr. Moses in these ’comities is as follows:
Marion 300, Chattahoochee 50, Talbot
250, Troup 600. The majority of Mr.
Moses in the district will hardly be less
than 6,000.
FIFTH DISTRICT.
Atlanta, November 4.—Here’s the
Fifth: Fulton, Democratic majority 1,060,
with one precinct out; Walton 700; De-
Kalb 700; Newton 500; Henry 500; Spald
ing 400; Campbell 350; Clayton 300;
Douglas 300: Rockdale 200; Fayette, prob-
ably 300. These are round numbers, but
accurate.
light. There is virtually no con
test, as the opposition of Williams,
colored, Republican, to Thomas E.
Watson, Democrat, is not threatening
enough to bring out a fair vote. In this
city the total is 363, Watson 333, Williams
24, scattering 6. The vote in the country
precincts will'probably give even larger
majorities for Watson as he was nomi
nated by the influence of the Farmer’s
Alliance.
ALABAMA.
Montgomery, November 4.—The ma
jority in this city for Herbert for Cou-
gress from the Third district, is 557 over
Pilley, Independent. The scattering re
turns received are sufficient to show that
there is no break in the Democratic col
umn. The effort to defeat Herbert,. Far-
ney and Wheeler, signally fails. Every
Democratic nominee will be elected. The
polls in the State closed at 5 o’clock.
There was no election except for Congress
men. Telegrams from points in every
district show that Farmers’ Alliancemen
did not vote for Independents, except to a
very limited extent in the three districts
above named.
Mobile, November 4.—The election in
Alabama has brought so far no surprises
in the Second district. Rev. S. A. Pilley
(Independent) has polled quite a respecta
ble vote against Herbert (Democrat), but
it is not thought sufficient toiendanger his
re-election. In the Fourth district some
doubt was felt as to the re-election of Louis
W. Turpin, but his plurality over two Re
publican candidates will be nearly 1,000
votes. Richard Clark is re-elected in the
First district over Warner and Threet, ne
gro Republicans. In the Third district
Oates is re-elected. The same is true of
Cobb in the Fifth, Bankhead in the Sixth,
Forney in the Seventh and Wheeler in the
Eighth.

voting was light in the city, not over 2,500
for Bankhead. The majority throughout

It is known that Forney is safe in the Sev-

Eighth and Clark in the First.
ARKANSAS.
Little Rock, November 4.—Informa
tion has been received at the Republican
headquarters of a row at Pine Bluff, at
which a Deputy Sheriff shot a policeman
and an indiscriminate exchange of shots
between Republicans and Democrats fol
lowed, and in which two other parties
were wounded. All is now quiet, with a
favorable outlook for the Republicans.
Little Rock, November 4.—The elec
tion was quiet and without incident here;
only about half the vote was polled. Ter
ry, Democrat, for Congress running 1,485
to 1,143 for Harrison, Republican. This
the Fourth district is a strong Democratic
district, and partial returns from points in
half a dozen counties indicate a small vote
everywhere. Dispatches from Clarksville
estimates Terry’s majority at 560 in John
son county.
The Gazette’s special from Searcy says
indications point to a heavy vote in the
white counties, and large Democratic gain.
This township which gave Eagle, Demo
crat, 60 majority gives Breckenridge 165
majority for the short term and 164 for the
iong term. Eight townships ont of 30 gave
Breckinridge 422 majority, which points
600 to 700 majority in the county. Tele
phone messages from Helena, Claybourne
county, say three townships give Breckin
ridge 1,971. The indications are that his
majority in the county will be about 650.
Telegrams from Russellville claim 1,000
majority for Breckinridge in Hope county.
From the First’district few returns are in.
Cates’ majority in Walnut Ridge township,
Lawrence county, is 185, gaining 74. His
majority is 84 in Jacksonport, Jackson
county, and 122 in Yandale, Ross county.
Telephone reports estimates Cates’ ma
jority in Sharp county at double that re
ceived by Eagle for Governor. No contest
in the Third and Fifth districts, McRae
and Peel (Democrats) having no opposi
tion.
DAKOTAH.
St. Paul, November 4.—Today’s elec
tion throughout South Dakota has been
very exciting, and a fall vote has been
polled. Besides the excitement in the
State and Congressional tickets, a bitter
fight for the permanent capitol has,
brought out every vote possible. Last
fall, in the first State election, the total
vote was over 77,000, and that will prob
ably be found to have been exceeded when
all the returns are in tonight. The uncer
tainty of the Alliance vote makes an early
estimate as to the result unreliable. The
returns will be compared with the vote of
last year, so far as the Alliance vote will
allow it.

more than Felton and Hargrove.
