Petersburg, November 3.—In reply to an
inquiry from the mayor of Lancaster, Ohio,
and outer Northern friends, Gen. Mohone
has sent the following telegram:
I am gratefnl for the concern felt for our stmpgle
here for Republican principles, honest methods,
human rights and American unity. It Is
with sincere apprehension for the future
safety of Republican goverenment, the
peace of the nation and the welfare of the country
that 1 realize that the Peraocnts have carried the
Htate and legislative tickets—only, however, by
lawless proceedings and an unscrupulous use of
the election machinery, all in their hands and un
der their abeolute control, aa provided, and to this
very end, by the late usurping Democratic Legisla
ture.
[Signed] Maboxe.
Petersburg. Va., November 3.—At the
Republican headquarters here General Lee’s
majority is estimated at from 10,000 to 12,-
000.
Richmond, Va., November 3.—Three
hnndred and twenty-nine voting precincts,
including Richmond, show net Democrat
ic gains of 7,612. Calculating the re
mainder of the State by the same ratio of
^ains, Lee's majority will approximate
The indications at 1 o’clock this morning
are that the Democrats will have two-thirds
of the Senate and sixty out of one hundred
members of the House of Delegates. John
S. Wise concedes the Democratic victory.
In Pennsylvania.
Philadelphia, November 3.—Fifty-seven
ont of 67 counties in this State, including
Philadelphia, give Quay, Republican, for
State Treasurer 28,951 majority—a net Re
publican gain of 7,727. while Quay loses
7,733 in tae cit.v, T his gains in the counties
outside of Philadelphia foot up 15,460.
The counties yet to ho heard from gave in
1883 a Democratic majority of 1,C10. But
the Republican ga'ns are so uniform
throughout the State that this majority
will probably be wiped out. Quay's ma
jority will stand about 29,000.
In Connecticut.
Hartford, November 3.—The elections
in this State are for members of tho Legis
lature only, consequently the vote is light.
Harttobd, November 3.—Returns from
fifty towns in the Stste elect thirty-two Re
publican and thirty-nine Democratic mem
bers of the Legislature, a Democratic gain
or six over last year, when the Republicans
had seventy-one majority in the House. A
Democratic Senator in the first district is
elected, n Democratic gain. Hartford
elects two Democratic Representatives, the
some as last year.
Hartford, Conn., November 3.—The
election in this State was for members of
the legislature only. The returns at the
Courant office at 11 o’clock from all but
four towns in the State show the complex
ion of the next house to be ns
follows; Republicans 129, Demo
crats 112, ludependents 2. The
missing towns will not materially change
the results. The town of Marlborough is a
tie on Representative. Last year these
towns stood: Republican, 166; Democratic,
84. Senatorial elections took place in twelve
districts. Each party elects six of the twelve.
The Senators holdingover are seven Repub
licans and five Democrats, making the next
Senate stand thirteen Republicans pud
eleven Democrats. Last year it stood sev
enteen Republicans and seven Democrats.
This gives the Republicans a working ma
jority in both branches.
In New Hampshire.
Nashua, N. H., Xovemhci 3.—Tho muni
cipal election held to-day resnlted in the
election of the Democratic candidate for
may., r. The Democrats elect three conn
oilmen. The city government is Republi
can on joint ballot, the council standim
Republican 6, Democratic 4. The board ol
education stands Republican 3, Demo
cratic 1.
In New Jersey.
Philadelphia, November 3.—A special to
the Times from Trenton, X. J„ says: The
election in this State haa resulted
in a substantial victory for the
Republicans. The only issue was
the Legislature, in both branches of
which the Democrats will bo again in
minority. The best estimates at midnight
give tho Republican* 13 votes in the
next Senate to 8 for the Democrats,
and in the Assembly Republicans
33 to 27 Democrats. This is a Republican
gain of two in the Senate and a loss of sev
eral in tue House, hut it leaves a Republi
can majority on joint ballot.
In Maryland.
Baltimore, November 3.—The election
in Maryland to-day is for choice of comp
troller of the State, clerk of the Court of
Appeals, all members of tho House of Dele
gates and nineteen members of the Senate.
In the city of Baltimore two clerks of courts
anil three out the State connty officers will
be chosen. The election is proceeding very
quietly, and thus far leas excitement is
manifested than at the mayoralty election
last, week. The contest Is between the
friends and enemies of Senator Gorman.
Baltimore, November 3.—A difficulty
occurred this afternoon in the fourth ward,
in which John Hcrlow, colored, was shot
through the body, and there is but little
prospect of his recovery. Ho solicited an
other colored man to vote the Democratic
ticket, when he was assaulted by others of
bis race, and ‘■Sheep’’ Brown shot him.
Brown has not been arrested.
Baltimore, (midnight) November 3.
The election passed off qnictly and resulted
in a sweeping victory for the regular Demo
cratic ticket in this city. The returns are
not all in at midnight, as the length of the
ticket necessitates a slow count As far as
beard from not a single fusiooist candidate
la elected. The State returns are coming
in very slowly, but indications point to
Democratic success in nearly all of the
-counties, which insures a working majority
both branches of the State Legislator*.
" Baltimore, November 3.—Partial retanu
F eived up to this hour bora all sections
of the Stste Imlieste a considerable Demo
cratic gain throughout the eastern section,
while Western Maryland, always Republi
can, is about holding the regular vote. The
Democratic majority on the State ticket
is estimated now at 12,000 to 16,000,
Iu Mississippi,
Jackson, November 3.—The election to
day passed off quietly. The indications arc
that the vote was unusually light. Jackson
polls 350 votes and registers 1,000. The
negroes generally were not voting. The
light vote is to lie accounted for from the
fact that there was no ticket in the field
except the regular Democratic State ticket
In a few connties where local disaffection*
existed, the vote is divided, and a few inde
pendents may be elected to the Legislature
and to county offices.
Jackson, November 3.—The election to
day wns the most quiet and peaceable one
in twenty years. There wns no orposition
to the Democratic State ticket. Differences
of a purely local nntnre exist in eight or ten
counties. The returns so far received show
a very light vote. The city of Jackson
polled 350 votes against 1,000 at the city
elections last year. The vote throughout
the State was correspondingly light. The
negroes generally did not vote.
In Illinois,
Chicago, November 3.—The election in
this city and county to-day is for a justice
of the Supreme Court of Illinois, to fill a
vacancy caused by tho death of Justice T.
Lyle Dickey, and judge of the Superior
Court of Cook county. The Republicans
nominated Benjamin D. Magmder for the
Supreme Court, end the Democrats have
cuucurred in this nomination. The Repub
licans present Gwynn Garnet for Superior
Court judge and the Democrata William J.
Hynes. Both parties hnve presented their
own candidates for commissioners, and
owing to the failure of a portion
of the Republican press to
support all Republican nominees
R split ticket has been printed and is being
offered to voters to-day, containing the
names of a portion of the nominees of each
party. The contest over the election of
county commissioners is provoked by the
condition of the county finnnees and the
declaration thAt the present management
has been reckless and extravagant, Tho
chief contest to-day, however, is over the
adoption or the rejection of the new elec
tion law framed at the last session of the
Illinois Legislature. The new law provides
for small voting precincts and is framed
very closely after the New York law. The
Republicans and Independents favor the
new law while the Democrats are opposing
its adoption. The weather is clear and
cool this morning and there is promise of a
full average vote.
Chicago, November 3.—One hundred
anil thirty-seven precincts have sent in re
ports, which makes it certain that the elec
tion law is carried. Two Republicans and
two Democrats have been elected county
commissioners. The other names on the
tickets are still in doubt. Now that it is
known the election law is carried, popular
interest has largely subsided.

The resignation of Dr. Gregory as a mem
ber of the Civil Service Commissson was

THE ANTI-CHINESE MOVEMENT.
The Chinese of Tacoma Forced to Leave
the Town—No Hloodsheil.
Portland. Or*., November 4.—A dis-
>atch from Tacoma, W. T., dated Novem-
>er 3, says: This being the day set for the
Chinese to leave, at a signal given at 9:30
a. in. many hundred citizens congregated
and mnrchedjjin on orderly mnnner along
the streets oi Chinese houses, ordering the
occupants to pack their goods and leave.
The order was complied with. By 3 o'clock
p. m. their goods were packed and loaded
on drays, and the Chinese were marching

Des Moines, November 3.—To-day
opened with pleasant weather. The voting
is proceeding quietly, with the prospects of
an unusually large poll. Iowa this year
elects a Governor, Lieutenant Governor,
judge of the Supreme Court and superin
tendent of public instruction, and one-half
of the members of the Senate, and all of
the lower Hones are to be voted for to-day.
There are four Stale tickets in tho field—
the Republican, headed by William A. Lar-
rabee, the Fusion (representing the Demo
crats and Greenbackers), headed by Charles
E. Whiting; tho str.ilghtout, or St. John
Prohibitionists, headed by James Mickle-
wait, and the straight Greenbackers, op-
Dsed to tho fusionists, headed by Elias
oty, of Lynn county. The chief State
issue involved is the repeal or further
trial of prohibition, the fusion -slatterm
demanding the repeal of prohibition
and substitution for it of n general license
law, and the Repnblicnn platform askini
for a fair trial of the prohibitory law, witl
no modification. The Senators elected this
year will vote for a United States Senator
two yenm from next winter. No national
issues ore involved in tho campaign. The
vote of to-day will be compared with that
of 1883, when the Republican majority for
Governor was 2,600. The opposition vote
to-day will bo compared with the combined
vote of the Democrats and Greenbackers in
1873. There ore 1763 voting precincts in
the State.
DesMoineo, Ia., November 3.—Seventy
precincts in Iowa give a net Republican
i ;oin of 6-13. Eighty-four precincts give
sirahee 10,138 and Whiting 16,274.

as reported, and a heavy vote haa been
polled. The returns will he late, as a large
proportion of the polls will be kept open
until 9 o’clock. Returns will be scut the
Associated Press in summaries of precincts
as fast as received, showing net gains or
losses. The comparison will he made with
the vote on Governor in 1883, when three
candidates were in the field, hut the Demo
crat and Greenback vote will he added to-’
i (Other and counted as the opposition-to the
tepnblicans. In that year the Repnblicnn
candidate for Governor hail 2,660 majority
over the combined opposition. The first
ten precincts received show a net Republi
can gain of 217.
Des Moines, November 3.—One hundred
and seventy precincts in Iowa givo net Re
publican gains 6,057. Estimates at Repub
lican headquarters, based on returns re
ceived np to 11;25 p. m.. gives a Republi
can majority on the State .ticket of 17,000
to 20,(AW. At the Democratic liendqunr-
tera no estimate is ma le on the State. The
Democrata are claiming the election
members of the Legislature in Scott, Dn-
buqne, Pottowstomie, V
connties.
DesUoines, Ia., November 3.—Ono hun
dretl and fifty prccints in Iowa give a nut
Republican gain of 833.
In N'tlintoka.
Lincoln, November 3.—One ward in this
city and five outside precinct* are all that
have been heard from complete,which, with
other partial reports, indicate the election
of the Republican State ticket by abont the
same majority as that of last year, in pro
portion to the vote. The Republican ma
jority U how estimated at about 18,000.
Lincoln, Neb.. November. 3.—Reports
come in more rapidly now. Thirty-eight
precincts outside the city bear ont the esti
mate of 18,000 Republican majority. The
prohibition vote will reach 6,000 in the
State.
A Millionaire's Suicide.
8r. Paul, November 4.—Cyrus Y’ondes,
whose father, James W. Yantles, formerly
of Indianapolis, died a few day* ago, leav
ing a colossal fortune, waa found dead on
his father’s grave today. He had blown
the side of hi* bead off with a shotgun.
Grief for hia father, his life-long anil insep
arable companion, and the responsibility of
settling a million dollar estate for himself
and sister, in the absence of a will, is be
lieved to have unsettled the young man's
mind, and to have led to us tragic end.
George Yandes, of Indianapolis, is now
here, superintending the removid of the
remains, together with those of hi* father,
mother and three brothers and sisters. All
but Cyrus are buried in the yard of the
homestead here.
THE NEW COMMISSIONERS.
The President to-ilny appointed Alfred P.
Edgerton, of Fort Wayne, Ind., civil service
commissioner, in place of Doriunn B. Ea
ton, resigned, and William L. Trenholm, of
Charleston, 8. C., in place of John M.
Gregory^-csigned. Mr. Edgerton was in
early life a clerk in a mercantile hoaso in
New York city, but while still a young man
removed to northern Ohio ns agent of tho
Northern Land Company. He then served
four years in Congress ns a Democrat, and
wns financial agent of tho State of Ohio,
with an office in New York city. In 1858
moved to Indiana, and in 1868
was the Democratic candidate
for lieutenant-governor, Vice-President
Hendricks bring the candidate
for Governor. They wero both defeated.
He is a Democrat. He refused to support
Greeley in 1872, and came within six votes
of being nominated for Vice-President on
the O'Connor tickot over John Quincy
Adams, Jr. He was then nominated as tho
straightout Democratic candidate for Gov
ernor of Indinnn, but declined in a letter
urging all Democrats to support Hendricks,
who was elected. For fifteen years he
has been unanimously elected by tho com
mon conneil of Fort Wayne as president of
the board of education of that city, nnd by
appointment of ex-Govemor Porter is a
director of Perdne University. He has
been engaged in many successful business
enterprises, is in easy circumstances, and

Seattle, W. T., November 4.—The jury
in the case of the United States against
Perry Bayne, after being out thirty minutes,
returned at 7 o’clock last night with a ver
dict of not guilty. Bayne ia one of the
seven men who were indicted for mnrder

PonTLAND, Ore., November 4.—The

that tho jury wns reconvened in anticipa
tion of serious trouble should the Chinese
refuso to leave on tho date fixed by the so-
called Workingmen's Lengao. Tho fact is
that the district attorney and grand jury
have discovered the identity of
certain leaders of the alleged La

bo indicted under sections of United
States revised statutes which proviilo.for
the punishment of those who have intimi
dated foreigners. They will bo prosecuted
under tho civil rights net to tho full extent
of the lnw. Tho grand jury have a number
of witnesses who will swear to personal

equivalent to a law of the land, so the dis-
tnct-nttornoy will hold, and each and e
United States officer in the civil service
so enforce the lnw.

id a practical student of public affairs. He
was for many yean an intimate friend and
associate of Chief Justice Waito, who to
gether with Senator Henry B. Payne, Gov-
lemor Gray, of Indiana, Vice-President

What His Homo Paper Say* About Ills
OiiulUiiutlan*.
Ciuhlf-ston, 8. C. t November 4.—Tho
Newfl anti Courier editorially to-morrow will
raise very warmly tho appointment* of
tolonel Trenholm aa civil service cornwis
sioner, saying:
••colonel Trenholm nnltea many qualification!
which are rarely found In combination in the name
person. He possesses solid acquirement* and
large Information, and haa ofteutimea exhibited
singular skill and tact In dealing with difficult and
complicated questions. A Charleston merchant by
inheritance and in practice, ho will not
be regarded aa a mere theorist, while
the prominence he haa acquired by hia discussion
of divers public questions will satisfy those who aa
yet only know him by reputation that he is compe-
vice In the law and regulations now in force!
but he ia no dreamer, and will take,
wo aro confident, a thoroughly business
like view of the matter, seeking always substantial
results of public value rather than the gratification
of an Idea. This may seem high praise, but we are
confident that it is well deserved.
lu conclusion, tho News and Courier
says:
The appointment now made U a compliment ■
tho Htate as well as to Col. Trenholm. Looking
over the field with a desire to find a Democrat
fully qualified and coniiietent, tho President
finds In Houth Carolina him whom he sought, and
will flud him unquestionably worthy of hia choicej

|the drafting of it to a hack politician of the most
mercenary and convictionless class, as impervious
to new ideas as the janitor iu a Dominican monas

every line intended to repel and disgust the voters
on whom in every election victory in this Bute
depends. It insulted the President, and in such
su lngeneous way as to insult alsol
the majority which voted for him last year. To
crown all, it again thrusts in our faces tbs affairs of
