Vtitloiut AssoclntcJ '
October 12. At 1 a.
m.-returns nro very meagre , but
enough to indicate that Poster's ma-
; ority ia not far fiom 15,000 and the
emaindor' of Iho republican state
tiekot nbout the same. In Hamilton
sounty the cotint'will' bo in progress
ill daylight but.thoro is little scratch-
ng on tin Mtito ; tticKot , and Foster's
_ my will probably roach 1,200. A
nVor.itic judge Jam ! ono. or two can
didates are probably elected through
republican scratching. It looks as if
the legislature will bo republican , but
may depend on Hamilton county ,
which is utill very uncertain.
CINCINNATI , October 12 , 1:35 : a. m.
The interest at 1 a. m. centers in
the legislature. There is a strong
probability that itwill bo republicans.
The sciatching is ho general that ihu
demmnatic candidates may be elected
from Hamilton county and thereby
fjivo ono br.uich to the dt'inocr.its.
Unless , however , they can pincnre
both houses it will lie impossible to
upset tie present districting of the
state for congressman which is con
sidered by both parties a very im
portant matter. .
COLUMJIUS , O. , October 12. At
12:20 : a. in. democrats concede Fosters
election by 8,000 , Vwhilo the ropubli-
calls claim it by 16)000. ) The legisla-
turo is in doubt and depending on the
result in Hamilton county , which may
not bo determined until to-morrow.
Four hundred and thirty-three wards
and precincts give a not doniocaaic ,
gain of 01D. Every indication is that
the close counties are republican for
the legislature.
Later returns allow that the repub
lican candidates for -Iho .legislature
have been elected in Muskegum coun
ty and in Van "Wort. The democrats
oven. fojuv.Jhat.j .sror
Tfrahklm cotinly. Uut few remain at
the democratic headquarters. A
string bund has just been sent ever to
serenade them from the republican
headquarters.
CINCINNATI , O. , October 12. The of
counting of tlio vote in this city still
goc.s on and will not bo finished in
most precincts till late this attcrnoon.
Enough is known to give a majority all
of between 1,500 and 2,000 for Poster foi
and the whole state ticket. The dem an
ocrats elect three common pleas ok
judges and possibly four ; also the wli
probate judge and county treasurer. io
The candidates for the
legislature run eri
BO eloso that it is impossible yet to vie
tell how the delegation will stand. folI
COI.UMIIVH , October J2. Chairman
Nash , of the republican state com of'
mittee has just said that Poster's ma
jority will not be less than 15,000. A
republican house of representatives is
assured without Hamilton county con
sidered and ho has hopes of the sen
ate. He says t'ao republicans have
gained representatives in the follow
ing democratic counties : dormant ,
Henry , Yinton and " Vayno and have me
carried the following republican coun
ties that wore regarded doubtful : Del
aware , Erie , Hard in , Knox , Madison ,
Muskingum , Portage , Jtoss and Sciotn. Dr pn
COLUJIDUS , 0. , October 12. Chair for
man Nash , of tlio republican state lat
committee , says the legislature will
stand : Senate republicans , 20 ; demo
crats , 13. House republicans , GO ;
democrats , 3G. This made up on the
theory that the democrats have ono G
senator in Hamilton and one repre kii
sentative. Nei 's defeat is also allowed tic
this count. The republicans gained
r0
republicans in Tuscarawas and HtC
Paulding , the Defiance district , and tid
alao carried the doubtful county of toi
William. Jefferson ia the only coun hii
lost. Returns from foity-Hoven Gc
counties fihow that the republican Gcm
majority will nearly roach 20,000. th
CINCINNATI , O. , October 12. All if
the voting precincts have not yet boon ifCi
heard from , but from the returns it m pi
evident that the republican atato
ticket has a majority of 2,500. The
republicans have elected their entire
legislative ticket with the exception of
Harlan , colored. The democrats have
elected three out of five judges of the
common pleas court and the remainder -
dor of thu county ticket.

IOWA-
DKS MOINE.S , October 12. KotuniH
from yesterday's election are very
much delayed , The otato campaign
on the part of the republicans and
democrats IIUH not been prosecuted
with spirit , which accounts for the of
very light voto. There has been n
strong fight made in this city and
county on local mattcru , but the
straight republican ticket has been
elected unless possibly fjiorepieHcnta-
live may go to the democrats , when the
full roturna are in. The fact that the
fisht has been nninly local has caused to
all the ticket to bu scratched to an use
unprecedented extent and full ro-
turim will bo very much delayed.
Up to an early hour thin morning ro-
poita had been received from a portion
of thirtV'oIqhl counties , some ot then
nearly in full. Thcto returns give
Sherman , republican , for governor
5,871) ) majority over Kinno , democrat.
Last ytar the same counties gave ( tar *
Hold 8,081 , majority. The same relative -
tivo vote ever the ntato will give Sherman
tin
tie a majority of between CO,000 and
05,000 ; ever the democrata and A ma
jority of 35,000ovcr , all. The reports in
dicatoa republican majority ofOOintho
legialaturo. The scnatn will bo more
strongly republican than in 1870 , aa
there ia a gain of ono in Dubuque and
ono in Leo and possible on in Kco
kuk. There have been fewer ropub
licnn losses on account of Ihu prohib
itory amnndmont than were expected
and Homo of the prohibition loiacs on
the republican aide in Cass county run
closer to other causes than that.
DusMoiNiw , " October 12. Returns
from all portions of the Htato show
that , the vote polled yesterday was un
usually light. There soeniR to have
boon a propovtionalo falling oil'of
jtrongth among the three parties.
The ; grconbaekora , contrary to expec
tations , holding their own. In
Dubuque county the light can
te tered on candidates for sen
at . J. 1C. Graves , republican ,
carried the county by about 1,000
majority. The republican legislative
ticki < t in Leo county is also elected.
Those are both democratic strong-
iclds. Incomplete returns indicate
; hat the Htato has gene republican by
about 40,000 majority over the demo
cratic and 20,000 to 2i > ,000 over nil.
The republican majority in the legisla
ture ; mil range from DO to 100 on the
J oint ballot. Altogether it was a
clean < swoop exceeding expectations.
DKS MOINKS , Ia. , October 12. Th
city complete gives Sherman 1,054 ,

najority ever all of 840. In Polk' '
county the republican majority is
ibout 1,000. with the entire ticket

ickct.
DKS MOI.NKS , Ia. , October 12. lie-
urns from 7 of the Oi > comities In
ho state somewhat change previous
estimates of the result of t.o ! election
ind show a falling oft"of tlio green-
) ack vote and indicate that it will \
Irop below a total of 25,000. The
epublican tiekct gains oteadily and
ho majority will undoubtedly reach
ipwards of 50,000. The democrats
lavolost members of the legislature

few straggling members in unoi-
looted portions of the ntato. But

morning ; "It is the Chicago otlico that

has been continuous nnd heavy drafts

\olopcd into u brokerage , in which
many firms hero and ebowhoro hau
accounts. Our embaratituuntti have
arisen from the failure of customers
to make good their contracts with us.
The money to carry thono contracts
was remitted hence - < lo the Chi-
co oflico and the * inability to
get funds , to settle the $15,000 draft
simply precipitated matters. The recent -
cent decline in Riuin , ' of , wlu'ch we

drained not only our bank accounts
but strained our credit until it yield
