Noon Dispatches.
New York, Nov. 9.—The Commer
cial Advertiser say a the Republicans
at their headquarters in Fifth Ave
nue Hotel are still confident that
Hayes has carried Florida, which is
all that is required to secure Hayes'
election.
Dispatches were received from va
rious points in Florida this morning,
confirming the claims made that the
Republicans had carried the State.
The Democrats are quite as confi
dent that Tiiden has carried the
State.
North Carolina is still in doubt, al
though the State Is claimed by Til
den.
Senator Mitchell telegraphs from
Oregon that the State is sure for
Hayes.
The result will not be satisfactori
ly settled until North Carolina and
Florida are officially heard from.
Dispatches, were received in this
city at noon to-day, from Gov.
Sterns, of Florida, announcing that
that State has given 2,000 majority
for Hayes.
Secretary Chandler has received
dispatches from the Southern States,
which leave no doubt in his mind
of the election of Hayes.
Sheriff Jones, of Jacksonville, Fla.,
telegraphs that State is undoubtedly Rc
publ ican.
Mr. Motier, Chairman of the Republi
can State Committee, send3 telegrams
from Tallahassee claiming the State for
the Republicans by two thousand.
Secretary Chandler answers all enqui
ries by stating that the election of Gov.
Hayes is considered beyond doubt.
Senators Bowen and Sargent, of Cali
fornia, have telegraphed that the State
is Republican by a large majority.

ceived this morning from Adjutant-Gen
eral Elliott and Gov. Kellogg "claiming
the State by ten thousand.
San Francisco, Nov. 9—Dispatches
from Virginia City this morning say Ne
vada will give one thousand Republican
majority. Scattering returns from that
State also indicate that result.
Returns a'l coming in very slowly in
California, The returns thus far received
give Hayes fifty-four hundred majority,
which additional returns are not likely to
vary.
For Congress, Davis and Page, Reps.,
are certainly elected, and Backeco, Rep.,
is thought to be. elected in the Southern
District, running considerably ahead of
his ticket. In the Fourth 'District the
contest is j, very close and indecisive, and
both parties claim the election of their
respective candidates for Congress.
A dispatch from Portland says the
Democrats now concede that Oregon has
gone for Hayes by from five to eight hun
dred. The Republican State Central Com
mittee claim the State by from one to two
thousand.
Night Dispatches.
NORTH CAROLINA.
Raleigh, Nov. 9.— Gen. Kilpatrick
arrived this evening j from Wash
ington. He is now closited with T.
B. Keogh, Chairman of ithe Repub-
State Committee, aud other Repub
licans at the Yarbrough House. It
is supposed by the Democrats that
his presence in the State is for the
purpose of perpetrating frauds upon
the election returns.
Additional returns from the western
part of the State continues .to show
Democratic gains. The counties yet
to hearjfrom are Democratic, and the
majority will certuinly reach quite
15,000.
SOUTH CAROLINA.
HAMPTON ELECTED.
Charleston, Nov. 9.—Complete re
turns from Colleton and partial re
turns from Charleston county, indi
cate that Hampton has carried South
Carolina by from 1,700 to 1,900 major
ity. The Democrats gain seven Sen
ators and thirty-four Representa
tives, giving them a 3uro majority of
one on joint ballot, securing a Sena
tor in place of Robertson.
The vote for President is still
closer. The Democratic Committee
is confident of a small majority for
Tiiden.
Charleston, Nov. 9.— Nineteen coun
ties, all official except four, give a Demo
cratic majority of 23,613. Eleven coun
ties, from trustworthy reports and some
official, give a Republican majority of
14,159. The only two remaining counties
are Charleston and Colleton, where before
the election, Republicans claimed respect
ively from five hundred to six thousand
majority. If the result confirms their an
ticipations, Hampton’s net majority would
be 2J154, aud Tildeu’s probably one thou
sand, fifteen per cent. less.
The city is in a condition of feverish ex
citement to-day.

dred, and the Republicans their’s at fifteen
hundred.

jority of twelve hundred.

1:45 p. m.— Twenty-one counties in
Florida give 1.711 Republican major
ity. Eighteen counties not heard

majority of 1,966, which will make
the State Democratic by 255.
Savannah, Ga., Nov. 9—4.15 p. m.- ■

ida. Nothing is expected until the
arrival of the St. Johns river boat at Pa
latka.

a ku-klux cry. f
New York, Nov. 9.— Tho National
Republican Committee publishes the
following:
Gov. Stern, of Florida, telegraphs
to-day from Tallahassee, Fla., as fol
lows :
“There is no doubt of our majority
in this State, if wo can secure an
honest canvass. The indications are
that violence is to be freely resorted
to to prevent "any returns from re
mote points in the interior.
“Our special train from Tallahas
see last night for the Chattahoochee,
to collect returns from the western
counties, was ku-kluxed a few miles
west of hero and the train thrown
from the track, which was torn up
and blockaded in several places.”
Key West, Nov. 9.— A1l tho pre
cincts of Key West give 979 for Tii
den and 970 for Hayes. Fort Myers
precinct gives 22 for Tiiden and 1 for
Hayes. Tho only precinct not
heard from will probably cast its en
tire vote of about 40 for Tiiden, mak
ing a probable Democratic majority
in the county of 04.
ALABAMA..
Montgomery, Nov. 9.— Enough re
turns show at least 35,000 majority
for Tiiden, and an unbroken delega
tion of Democrats to Congress. Shel
ly, Democrat, in the Fourth District,
has a handsome majority, Rapier and
Haralson, negroes, divide tho Repub
lican vote between them. This makes
a gain of two Democratic Congress
men.
Selma, Nov. 9.— Shelly, Democrat,
is elected to Congress by 1,017 major
ity, beating Haralson, colored, pres
ent member.
Louisiana;
New Orleans, Nov. 9,10:30 a. m.—

“The returns are even better than we ex
pected. Be easy so far as Louisiana Is
concerned.”
CALIFORNIA.
San Francisco, Nov. 9.— Charges of
fraud in the election in the city have
been freely made by both parties,
and considerable excitement pre
vails. A conference of leading men
of the Democratic and Republican
partied was held to-night, and a com
mittee of two from each party ap
pointed to investigate the charges.
The Board of Supervisors have also
directed the Finance Committee to
make investigations. The vote will
be canvassed Monday next.
San Francisco, Nov. 9.— Returns
from the Interior have been very
meagre during the day, and electors
of Congressman in the Third* and
Fourth District! i8 not decided.

than 1,150. Republican Congress
men elected by probably 1,000.

, WHOUMIX AND 11,1.1.V01D.
New York, Nov. 9.—The World has
these specials:
Milwaukee, Nov. B.—Nothing but
the official canvass can settlo Wiscon
sin. Both sides claim it by about
10,000 majority.
Chicago, Nov. B. —lllinois shows in
forty counties a Democratic gain of
39,000. Tho State is surely Demo
cratic.
[Signed.] Daniel Cameron,
Sec’y Dem. State Committee.
Later.
Chicago, Nov. 9.—The only ad
ditional Congressioim; news is that
Tipton, Republican, lias carried the
13th district, making the fourt U lie
publicMi gain in the Slate. Sparks,
Democrat, lias carried the sixteenth
district by a good majority.
There is no reasonable foundation
for the claim that the Detnocruis
have carried Iliiuois. Careful com
parisons of returns received with tho
highest Democratic vote cast in 1872
indicate 20,000 Republican majority.
The gains of Republicans in Congress
men exactly reverse tho present, po
litical character of t lie Illinois dele
gation. .Two of these gains have
been made in "Egypt,” the Demo
cratic stronghold, and tho Republi
cans have gained some members of
Legislature also from that section,
which would lie au impossibility if
the Democrats carried the State.
Of the aggregate voto registered,
which shows au enormous increase
over 1872, tho Democrats got a great
er per cent, than in the ratio appar
ently of about sixty to forty.
Milwaukee, Nov. 9.—Tho Republi
cans will have 18 majority in the As
sembly and 11 in Senate. The major
ity for Hayes in the State will exceed
6,000.

gaiu five Congressmen in Illinois. The
Democrats elect the following: narrison
in the Second; llungntc in the Tenth;
Knapp in the Eleventh; Springer in the
Twelfth; Eden in Fifteenth; Morrison in
Seventeenth; Townsend in the Nintccnth,
and possibly Sparks in Sixteenth.
MINNESOTA.*
St. Paul, Nov. 9.— Complete re
turns frum 42 counties, and partial
returns [from the remaining vote,
show that Hayes’ majority in tho
State will be about 18,000. The legis
lature on joint ballot will be nearly
two-thirds Republican.
MISSOURI.
Missouri, Nov. 9.—Complete re
turns from the Third Congressional
District give.it to Metcalf, Republi
can, by 31 majority. The Democrats
claim tho Sixth District for Morgan
by 700 majority. The Third District
was previously reported as probably
for Haven, Republican. The Repub
licans carry their county ticket in
this county, except for Probate
Judge, Public Administrator and As
sistant Prosecuting Attorney. Eman
uel Thomas leads his ticket for Sher
iff by 3,500 majority over Ex-Mayor
Brown, and, and the remainder of
the Republican candidates have an
average majority of 1,500.

der, Republican, for delegate over
Spink, Democrat, a majority of 107.
All the county Republican ticket is
elected except one. Outside coun
ties give Kidder a large majority,
which will probably reach 3,000.
NEW YORK,
New York, Nov. 9. —The excitement
to-night on the pinching result of the

night in front of the Everett House;
Fellow-citizens —Of the suspense in
which you have„been kept for the past
two days, I have now great pleasure in
announcing to you that from dis
patches received to-day wc know for
ceatain that the Democrats have carried
the States of South Carolina, Louisiana
and Florida.: New Jersey gives a majority
of 10,000. I beg of you as a American
citizen to remember that tire victory

NEWSPAPER OPINION.
New York, Nov. 9.— An Express ex
tra says it sees no reason to change
tho fact that a majority of tho Elect
oral votes are for Tiiden and Hen
dricks. This, it says, is the voice of
tho people, and nothing can change
it but enormous frauds of returning
boards, as in Louisiana in 1874.

ity in the next House. This estimate con
cedes to the Republicans every reasonably
doubtful district.

London, Nov. 9.— The Pall Mall
Gazette of this afternoon, comment
ing on tho Poesidential election in
tho United States, says: “We think
it is a crazy calumny to assert that
Mr. Tiiden, so distinctively a repre
sentative of the business men in the
Eastern States, will extend any favor
to the crude projects of tho inflation
ists, or the unintelligent dishonesty
of Republicans.

tice.
“Well, you are a nice boy to send
on a message,” said a woman to a
boy who had lost a bundle with
which she had entrusted him. The
boy struck the attitude of an orator
and replied: “Not being a common
carrier, and not having entered into
a contract with you to carry your
parcel, for and in consideration of
any sum, I have incurred no liability,
and am liable to no penalty. It 1
had undertaken to carry the parcel
for my own particular profit, my
father even would not have been re
sponsible for the loss (see Butler
against Bassing, 2 C. & P., 614,) un
less indeed he paid me smaller wages
because of the opportunity thus af
forded me to take smaller sums. On
this point I will only quote Dwight
against Brewster, 1 Pickering (MisS.)
50. But. rising from the law to the
equity of the case, I have only to say
’ but before be could say it his
father had yanked him from the
room.
