THE WEEKi. If CONSTITUTION. ATLANTA. GA.. TUESDAY NOVEMBER 11 1884; TvTELVE PAGES. V SETTLED, [Continued From Fir«t Page.] from Hon. Dun W. Manning, chairman of the Mate democratic committee, that the state had certainly gone democratic and , that Cleveland's majority would be correctly re ported, and maintained, the enthusiam knew no bounds. The scenes in and around Till CokSTiTOiiotr office and on the etreeta of At lanta beggard description. The local repub licans bad given up, the night before and bad not recovered during the day. Abont six o'clock the tono of the dispatch es from New York began to change. Tho fig ures from the late precincts showed unex pected gains for Blaine. A bulletin an nounced that an error made by a polling clerk in Richmond county added over a hun dred votes to their total. Several other revisions of the vote were made by the Associated Press until at about seven o'clock it was announced tbeatwith 23 pre cincts to hear from Blaine bad 432 plurality. The interest at this point was simply pain ful. Dispatches from leading newspapers, from the headquarters of the state and nation al committees, and our correspondents in New York came in almost every minuto. Tbey<ebowed that while the democrats were surprised at the cutting down of their major ity that they were determined to insist upon a fair count and a fair canvass. Pending the reception of the dispatches the streets about Tnx Cokstitctio. office on every side were absolutely packed with a mass of human beings eager to get the least scrap of news that could be obtained. Every thing that was encouraging was received with deafening cheers. The impression seemed to be general that the result of the election in New York would be that the votes wonld go before the canvaising board and be contested, and that the result might not be obtained in several weeks. This result was deplored on all sides as a renewal of the suspense of 1876, and that weuld be sure to work serious injury to the business interests of the conn try,not to speak of its political and social integrity. At about nine o’clock advices were received from the Times, Herald, the Sun, and the World in New York. These stoutly claimed tbat the state was democratic, and all private advices concur in this opinion. As each dis patch was posted tlieenthusiasmof the crowd rose and at .eleven o'clock there was the wildest excitement and it looked as if the whole city was on the streets. There were prolonged cheers at the posting of the rumor that the Western Union office bad been attacked, and as the Asso ciated Press bulletins stubbornly adhering to the Blaine plurality were received they were . posted, and it soon became evident that it was the Associated Press against the demo cratic newspapers of New York. By midnight the crowd slowly disappeared, and at 1 o'clock beyond a hundred or 'to people who sat aroun i on the counters and 'chairs in the various offices of Tuk Coxsvito- tiok, everyting was deserted. In Tns CossvivuTioa oflico the returns showed at ono o'clock 208 plurality for Blaine, and about half-past oife o'clock an orror was acknowledged that reduced them by abort 800. In a few minutes another error came, reducing the claim by another 300. About two o'clock a correction camo in from 'Westchester county reduciag the former figures by 488, and then for tho first liiuo since hall-past five in tho afternoon Cleveland led his opponent and hod 117 votes to his credit. This announcement was recoived with pro longed cheering by the faithful few who were assisting the editors in their work by leaning over their desks about fourteen dosp. ••lire Your Guns.” Now Yg», November 7,8 a. ni.—To The Con stitution: We have got the state.

This makes Cleveland’s plurality in the state 117 with twelve dUtrlcts to bear from. nigKBIKO FO* VICTORY. To-night a delegation of enthusiastic democrats, heeded by a band, sUrted up Fifth avenue to pass the headquarters of the national republican com mittee. There wm a large crowd on tho street, and It was feared tbat trouble might result, but harplly this was avoided. Sergeant Chapman, who bad chargo of tho polico around the headquarters, said that It bad been suggested to him that the promanaders should bo arrested for march ing without a permit, hut wiser counsels pro* vailed and the democrats jessed In peace, bat with a good deal of noise. As night grew excitement seemed to Increase at the HoflYnan house. Men of all sorts were gathered, but with the exception of a few men who were flushed with liquor, all bore a look of earnestness, of seriousness and o! determination. It was tbe some at the Fifth Avenue hotel, the Brunswick and the Windsor.

Y„ November 6.—By official re turns reported from every county Cleveland and Hi ndrlcks have carried New York state by a safe and svie majority. No mar.h(nations, or false claims, or pretended doubts of Mr. Blaine’s man stars, can change this result. The friends of hon (sttoveramcbt and bone-t elections can bo every where mured that the democratic state board ot can vs nets will sec tbat a true vote Is c-#rre5tly dc dared.

Jo N#w York attempts to tarapo with tbe vote have already been detected. Otb*-, diction precincts give at the utmost only 11* plurality to Grover Cleveland, while M3 precln st iii t jet heard from gave 2,121 plurality to Garfield There Is, therefore, no grouud to doubt tbat at hr mst rot* of tbe state has been given to the re publican candidates, and though defeated, th candidate for the presidency is at the head of t*» elettim machinery here.

Tbe business men ol a democratic meeting this afternoon resolved to continue the 'organization until the vote lo; president is honestly counted, and appointed a committee to aid the democratic national committee to secure an honest count. The contemplated mass meeting to be held lu Wall street to-morrow was postponed sine die. A mob of several hundred, bearing Cleveland portrait*, made an attempt to pnll down alllaino and Lo gan banner at Broadway aud Maiden lane this evening. The entire reserve foroo of the 26th preciuct wm called ont to disperse them. No ma terial damage was done. THE EXCITEMENT IN NEW YORK. The newspaper offices are still besieged with gaping and shouting crowds, eager to devour every bulletin as It appears, and wait for more satisfac tion from the next. On Tuesday and Wednesday evenings the large majorities that were promised on both sides evoked boisterous rejoicing of the misses, who were led to believe tbrt the contest wm all on one side, but to-night the returns hare been received from nearly every election district in the state. The figures aro very close, and the Mpect of the crowds ot spectators that hang on the bulletins Is tbat of pent up in tense excitement of tho people, watching neck and neck tho race just In front of the winning post The night was bitterly cold, but the men who had shouted themselves hoarse on one side and the other thought not of the weather or of thetr own discomfort Tho feel ing of easy victory on both sides has given place to deeper anxiety. Complaints about tho dlla- toriness of the official returns were mauy, and popular discontent wm fed by placards suggestive of attempts to cheat Republican treachery and vengcanco" was a con rplcuous line in one of the afternoon placards, and other such announcements and accusations tend ing to stir up popular fermout, were hung out for tbe public gaze. At times it seemed m if tho ex citement engendered on both sides by the delay, surpenro. doubt, mistrust and desire would lead to hostilities. Up to a pretty advanced hour lu tho evening the Tribuno and Mall and Express kept Inning bulletins promising a republican majority In New York, and the Mall and Ks press IfsuciI an edition at 10 o'clock showing a republican majority of 372. After that do more bulletius were exhibited on cither of tbeso two buildings, nnd crowds of anxious republicans weie icen ro longer. Tncrc wm a feverish iuraor time that the democtatlc crowd, enraged at wliat It was led to regard m manipulation of tho returns, Intended to attack tho Tribune building, but no at'oek wm made. Tbo Herald and the World continued to show largo, though considerably reduced majorities for Clove land. Tbe Herald’s lato bulletin at too o’clock stated that tbe returns from Albany up to tbat hour showed 3,000 majority for Cleveland in tho state, and tbo crowd, which filled tho streets In front of the building, continued cbecr that announcement again and again, wbilo they waited for later dispatches. Tho greatest gathering of spectators ;lste in the evening congregated In front of tho Fun office, where tbo associated press dispatches giving tho republican successes were attended with tho Sun dispatches, which Inclined to give the state to Clevolaml. At midnight crowds still in front of tho newspaper offices, and the excitement and cheering still continues, finch a ferment of public feetlnj? was never before known at au election in New York, which la duo chiefly to the clorcnors of tho contest aud tho cou- sequent doubt a* to tho result. Official teturns from Queens county reduce tho republican plurality of tho state to 371, with 12 districts to hear from. Twelve uniformed policemen were on duty at the Western Union building tt»U t evening. Cap- talu Berghold saltf nobody ’had requested him to send the men there; tbat he bad only taken the U pas a precautionary measure. He expected to withdraw them soon after midnight as there scant d to be no use for their presence. The scenes about the hotels and political head quarters up town to-nfght wore exciting every where. At the national democratic headquarters policemen were to bo seen. At tho Fifth Avonuo hotel, the Uofftnau bouse, tbo republican na tional headquarters, tbe crowds surgod through the corridors. Nothing wm to be heard on any side but "Blaine" or "Cleveland." Betting con tinued, but tbo odds apparently favoreft Clovo- -land. INDIANA. CfHCAOO, November 7 — M. IS.

A different phase was put upon afiairs, and u.»m tbe receipt of tbe report that tbo Now York Tri bune bad conccd tbo stato to Cleveland, which wm posted up on tbe bulletin boards, the democrats appeared In great numbers. Their hats were decorated with roosters and devices, and they canted blooms. They paraded through the prin cipal streets, raising a deafening din with fish Jpiiis. They called on Hendricks, filling the rpaclous yard aud tbe street in front of his resi dence, and when he appeared the noise was simply crrifle. Finally som< thing like order wm restored Niid Mr. Hendricks said: "Gentlemen—I am taken by zurprise by this srge collection of my follow-citizens. I appre ciate how well you have done, aud the hones, sen timents which animate you. 1 have no satisfac tory information, but I have no doubt that the ticket which wm nominated in Chicago on July 8 hoi been elected. [Applause]. But this Is Is a matter of »ucb grave Importance tbat I would like to know very coaclusively before 1 make any remarks. This Las been the most extraordinary contort I have ••ver been connected with.

[Great applause. | I suppose tbat by evening wc shall hare full information, then 1 >hall be v cry glad to Join yon in some ex- ; tensions of gratification. Until that time think I will say good-bye to yon." During the afternoon a crowd, headed by Hon. IV. E. Engihh, congre*zman from this dls trlct, attempted to carry the black bsnner of the autocrats Into the poatoffice building. They were met In the lobby by a republican crowd, and a icoffie that might have had aerions conseq Jcucu# ensued. XngU«h wm knocked, or pmbed down by a nrgro and souuwnat t.rulaed. The antocrat’a banner wav seized aud torn into shred* to be worn as badge* b7 t ie re* l ublicans, and the d« mocrau were bustled out of be building. No oue was bnrt in the crush, but ffce rumor spread to the outskirts of the eity that 4 rlct was la progress. MAINE. A UPSUII BY BLA1‘.3.

Be had full confidence that he hod beea fairly elected, and trusted tbat every effort would now be made to vindicate tho sacreduoss of the ballot. "To quote my own saying on an Important occa sicn fc ” added Mr. Blaine, "any party lu the United •States can bear to bo defeated, but uo party will bear to be defrauded." Mr, Blaine freely expressed the Judgment that a majority of the votes of New York had been cast for the republican electoral ticket. He thought the returns and a comparison with the former votes clearly established this conclusion. The People Jubilant.

Hundreds of telegrams baro been received from all over tbe country, Inquiring the views of Mr. Kelly 6n the eletftlon, and especially Mklng his opinion on New York stato. In response to their inquiries, Mr. kelly lMt evening sent the fol lowing telegram: Ibe figures show a total voto for Cleveland and Blaine of 1,104.616 and a plurality for Cleveland of 1,150, Tho Albany Evening Journal conn-des this. I am of tho opinion that the counties, when canvassed by tbe boirds of super* visors on Tuesday next, will show sa increase over the Journal’s figures. The natluusl dem ocratic committee figures are 1,800 for Cleveland, aud their statement Is based on positive Informa tion. I have no doubt of Governor Cleve land’s election, although tho people will kept In snspeuso until an official canvass can assure them positively of the result. Tho means taken to conceal the facts by those having charge of the vote cut in the sororal election districts ol tbe state of New York, hull raUs that efforts bars been raodo to tarn per with the returns, but tbo vigilance of the national data firstie committee has prevented it. You oan rely on these figures, u I have sriursure that they sre accurate and that the Mate canvsis will show them to be correct or nearly to, and If there are redaction*,* the num ber will not be sufficient to prevoat Cleveland's election. [Bigucd] John Kelly, A STARTUNO DRVKLOAMENT. Bather startling development#. oc curred In connection with tbo re publican canvass to-night. It leaked out that Steve Elkins intended to disqualify Ulster, Sullivan and SL Lawrence countioa,on the ground that the democratic vote wm fraud ulent, aud thus throw out tho vote of the whole stale. Elkin's adjutants to-night declare openly that If necessary to decide tho flut ter, they will take it'tothe highest courts. There is evidently a long fight on the presi dency in prospect. Editor New York Star. The Tlm*s Figures, New York, November 8, 3:10 p. m.—To Tii* Constitution ; There U no need of df.ubt tbat Cleveland ha* carried this state. His exact plurality, as estimated by cartful inquiry and trustworthy report, is thirteen hundred and sixty one. A gain of three hundred for Cleveland was tbe result of an examination for the Kings county returns by tbe republican campaign committee aud tbe United States supervisors. The repub ileans claim that they have carried tbe state is unsupported. by any figures except the utterly worthies and doctored reports of the Associated Prets In which no one here baa any faith. The figures of tbe Times have been obtained from ibe county chairmen of both parties, and have been repeatedly verified and corrected. Every county has been beard from agtfh today, and no further change* can be looked for before the official caovare is made. It is not believed tbat this canvass can change the result.
