AKOTHtn REPUBLICAN CLAIM.
The lateat advices received here from New York
ere to the effect that the republican committees,
state and national, after a careful examination of
the whole ground, are satisfied that It baa gone for
Blaine and Logan. They say that a correct count
will ihow a mail republican plurality, and that
they have taken atep* to eatabllab the fact*
Blame's neldenre baa been crowded Ml day
Many prominent citizen* from distant part* of the
state arriving. Interrat In the reaoH in New York
la crowing deeper every hour.
A CALL OK MR. RLATNE.
Thfc a'trrnoon Mr. Blaine talked freely about
theaHoatlon. lie aeld to a dlittngulahed citizen
of Maine:
•sj feel entirely confident that the honest vote of
New York, without change or manipulation will
ShOw a plurality for the republican elector* of not
Jeaa than 1,600 votea. 1 do not apeak idly, bnt
from the moat accurate data, carefully furnished
me (torn the moat competent sources."
Mr. Blaino added that the dlapatch of Danfel
Waning, published yesterday, contained the most
arrogant end offensive threat to control the elec
tion returns in the interest of the democratic
ticket, ever made In any northern state, and
equalled the worst bulldozing proclamation ever
Issued In the south. He thought Its effect would
lie to arouse the law-abiding citizens offNew York,
who cannot afford to have thrfr state reduced to
the level of lAwlresofas prevailing In ftowth C iro-
lloaand lllsafnlpiil. The gentlemen asked Mr
Blnfoclf ha felt much disappointment fover the
pomlble prosptci of .losing the presidency by such
means. Mr. Blaine ansacred:
“I don't feel so in any personal sense, but pro
foundly so on account of the vast notional Inter-
rats depending on the result. I feel groat pride
that no Imputation of frand his ever been serious
ly Uttered agaln*t the members of the republican
party In any state nr district. I do not believe the
American people will accept a fraudulent remit.
Th* republicans have cirricd the northern states
by more than 300,000 majority, and they do not
propose to have the leading state taken from them
by frs.ud."
There Is no change In the situation here. Ev
erybody la waling for the returns of the ansoclae
tod press, which, It is understood will come to
night.

The Albany Journal Gives In.
The Albany Morning Journal concedes tbe
election of Cleveland. It saya:
" There seems to be no longer a doubt that Gov
ernor Cleveland has been elected president. Every
county baa sent In Its full vote, and a careful varl-
Oration of tbe reports show that Governor Cleve
land has a plurality of about 1.000 in tne state. The
vote will not vary 200 on cither side of these
fligures. New York gives Cleveland enough votes
to elect him. Tho Journal has devoted all ft*
Wicrpy towards securing another resnlt, and it
nnvf reluctantly states that the election haa been
(fu fdrri dJffiredtiy from Jt* desires."
Ten districts not heretofore reported at all have
Just reached the Associated Press office, some of
them coming Irom the mountain regions by mule
These foot up as follows: Blaine, flCt: Cleveland,
2J7; net republican plurality In these districts, 417.
TIIX NKW YORK mum M’ZAKM.
The Herald 16-dny saya that Now York state la
democratic; that the official returns show It; that
these retnrna and no others will be regarded by the
state hoard of ranvswets, and that, although there
•nsplracy to steal the presidency and the
vk-c-presidency again for candidates whom the
people have rejected, It cannot possibly succeed*
The Sun says: "Twenty-four hours more have
pawed and the result In the great state of Now
York, and In the country at largo, remains undo
termined. The returns come in slowly aud with
onnflleting effect. Those from sources upon which
heretofore ue havobecu accustomed to rely differ
ing wholly from those which our own sources of
Itdot (nation supply. Wo Infer ft dm tbe returns
thus received, up t# the hour of going to pros,
that Cleveland has a plurality in this state of
moiethan 1,600." The Hun also says: "There is no
cause for alarm or au«plclou, because of the doiay
inn-reiving returns from remote districts,"and
adds; "The statu of New York will bo carrle 1 by
who lias received tho most votes, and by
nobody else. There Is no power that can wrost it
from him, and it it* an Insult to the people of this <
country to Intimate even the possibility that the
crime committed sganrtt them eight yean ago can
be rt pc* ted.
Ibc World snya: "There noed he no doubt
at opt the result of the presidential election. Now
York hfia given Cleveland a plurality of not lew
than 2,500. He lias been fairly elected, and will
be tbe next president of the United States." It
abo ridicules the idea that any successful attempt
can to made to steal New York's
vote, remarking that the only conceivable
result of sending a false electoral return to
Washington would be to throw the election into
tbe democratic home ol representative*."
The Tribune persists In claiming Nsw York for
tho republicans, and also saya the dispatches in
dlrat# that th# r -publicans hayo a probability of
success In W#*t Virgin la, Virginia and Florida, and
thus Insures Blaine's eltctlou without tho vote of
New York.
Tbe Time# says there la no shadow of a doubt
that Grow Cleveland lias been elected president
Iho Mall end Express says: "Neither party
yields New York state. Tbe contest Is so dote
that cffclnl figures may be necessary to determine
the result. 1 be returns so far recorded iudloate
an apparent plurality for Blaine.

| Nxw York, November 8, 1884.—9 p. m.
To Tnk Constitution: Latest estimate Is
that the work of tbe canvassing board will
simply confirm the election of Cleveland by
a decisive plurality. Every attempt has
been msde by the defeated party to change
the verdict of the people, but without suc
cess. All the republican papers conoede
Cleveland's election, but the small office
holders and heelers are desperate; resul
noimsl condition.
