The bad weather and the con dition of the toads made it Impossible foi tlio countiy precincts in the county to report until to day , and the llgnres published in the BEK yestciday vaty but slightly. Judge Maxwell will have at least 2,200 ma jority o\ei O'Day in Lancaster county , his vote being fully as lingo as Goveinor Thay- cr'sajcar ago. The piohibitionoto has shrunk away and Instead of having the bom bastic 2,000 votcb in the county , claimed by tholr orators , their vote w ill not excccU ( A)0 ) and is a radical falling off fiom foimer elec tions. The dcmocititle vote was vciy light and onc-thiid of the republican vote was not cast. The ri turns from the country precincts show that not over a half n vote was polled in tlic dlflerent precincts. As closely ns the cnnvatis wns made1 , the sc ratching on the dls- tiict judgcship pu/lnl both sides until the count was made. Sam M. Chapman icceives about 2,200 majority in the county , notwithstanding that the democrats voted for Hajden and had his name pn all the tickets The contest between Field and Sawjcr. whcio the light centered , 10- sulted in Field carrj ing all the city wards with a majority in the city over Sawyer of 057 , Tlio country precincts , which uro all in butthiecgivo Ficld211miijoiitywhich | added to his city majority , gives htm bu8 majoilty over Sawyer In Lancaster county. Tele- guphio rcpoits fiom Cass county leeched at republican headquarters indicate that Field is ahead of Sawjer in Cass county about 275 , nnd the latest report from Otoo county indl- e-ated tint Saw\er bad can led that county by II'iO. which will lea\o Fields majority in the district ubout bOO. The fact that Mr. Sawj cr campaigned ca an anti prohibitionist in Cass nnd Otoo counties and tied up with the prohi- qitlonista In this county , Is asserted by many to bo one of the principal causes that eontub- utcd to his defeat , and the \ oto in the city would Indicate that thcro was a ic.ictiomny feeling abioad from the time when Saw i or was elected imi or. Tlio icpubllcan county ticket has majoiitlcs in the eutiie county innging from 1BOO for Melick , for sheulT , to 2,500 for Kockc , for treasuier.

At 9:30 : o'clock Go\einor Oglesby cntoied the reception room of the executive depart ment and announced his rt.ullncss to hear anything that the representatives of the con demned anarchists might have to say. There upon Captain Kindt , senior counsel for the anarchists , presented the formal application for clemency of August Spies , Michael Schwab and Samuel rieldcn. Ho stated that it was not signed by 1'aisons , Fischoi , Engcl and Llngg , for the reason , as ho alleged , that they had sent n personal application to the governor nnd theiefoio deemed it unueies- sui.v to sign the petition in question. This pUitlon was quite lengthy. It recited the histoiyof the , alleged offense for \\hich the petitioners had been condemned. It aflltmod that none of them cither threw the fatal bomb or advised its thiovving , that they hud no knowledge of the fact that it was to bo tin own , that they always had counselled nnd encouraged puuu Considerable space \\.is devoted to an attempt to show that they had not had a fair ti ial , and indeed , that such tual was Impossible in Chicago , in view of the state of public sentiment at the time it took plar-o Captain Hlaek picscntcd an anieavit fiom Otis S Favor , a reputable busi ness man of Chicago , tending to show that the juiy which tried the unaichists , had been dellbciatulv packed agalust them by the bailiff.

He explained that every effort had been made to comply with the icquiicmeiits of law gov- oinlng applications for the Intel position of oxouitivo clemency mid stated chat Judge Gaiy and States Attorney Grlnnel had joined in a iccommedatlon for Fielden and Schwab. Having disposed of the mere formal pait of the application he nuulo an eloquent and 'ouchmg appeal for meicy that brought tears o tlio eyes of many of his auditors.

Ho closed the nddicbbcs by n short speech. Thogovcinor granted n piivato Intei view to the li tends nr.d relatives of thennuichists in his office. The go\einor has given no expicsslon ns to his intentions , audit is not likely that any decision will be given. It was said this afternoon that Spies' In other would lay a letter before thegovernor florn Spies this evening. It is claimed that Giinnell said in his speech that if Spies should bo hung the law would bo satisfied.

Lloyd delivered an appeal , reciting the his torv of this celebrated case and giving rea sons why executive clemency ran bo propoily uxtonded. The governor listened tn the-so gentlemen with the closest attention and talked with them f i eely about the situation. An Associated pioss reporter interviewed Mr. S liter this evening as to the i haracter of Ills talk with the govcinorundhls Impiesslon of the luttci's puiposo. Mr Salter bald ho was not at liberty to tell nil the governor said , but ho would say that his excellency was laboring with the question and spoke frankly of the difficulty of the situation. Salter told the governor that if ho had waited in Chicago until this evening ho could hnvo bi ought many more names down.

Quiet nt tlic Jnll. CHICAGO , Nov. 9 ( Special Telegram to the Hee-l The Jnte-r.fee though subdiu d ex- cUcuicDt rrUicb has prevailed aiouud the county jail since the beginning of the w cell was considerably lessoned this morning1 , and had It not been for the number of nowspnpel men on deck the casual observer would hnv < BCCII nothing in the condition of affairs to In * iHcoto that day after to moiiowis the on fixed for the greatest nnd mpst scnsatlonn } execution In the history of Cook county. Thcro wore probably two reasons for this. The first , and peihaps the most potent , was thnt it was a wet day. Thcro is not nnd never has been n greater nllajerof publld excitement than n thoroughly wet day. II dampens people's in dor as well as thcls clothes. It was w ith feelings of the gicutest satisfaction that nil those who have the prea * crvatlon of good oiderand quiet In their keep Ing when they opened their ejcsthls morning and found that the sk > was overcast and gave promise of n tluuinighlj wet day to come. The firemen were glad because n long diy spell of weather lias made everything of M combustible nature nere and inlhuumablo , and should any Merlons lite have biokcn out thu dlfllelilty of subduing It and keeping It within manageable hounds would have been all the greater. They hall the lain as n tlio picventntivo nnd n lira subduer as the fito- man's best friend. The policemen , too , were glad to sco thu rain. It lightened their duties immensely when they saw It coming , as they wcio sure they would lm\o no big uiimanago < able crowd iuilioic to day to wrestle with. As a menus of keeping the people quid iu their homes a thoroughly wet day Is unsur passed In its enicacy. The sheriff and the jail oflle-Ials wcie delighted to see it , an their experience hits taught them thnt they would have n quiet daj nt the jail and bo left lice fiom Urn importunity of the moibldly e-uil- ous who keep pleading for mi opportunity to have just one look at the amnchlsts , and in this they weie not disappointed , for the mils at the jail to day on the part of the publle weio few and far between , The second e-lo- mcnt ol thu coiiip.naUvo quiet that pio- vailed was tin' absence of the ninjoilty Of the immediate fi lends of the loiidcmncd se\cn In Sptluglleld foi thu pin pose of doing w hat they can thci o to secure e ommutallon of the sentence for all the loiidcmncd , or , if they find that be\\ond their power , foi as many of them as possible. Their absence made the piocecdiugs over at the Jtill exceed ingly monotonmis this morning , and all the pi isoneis had an exceedingly dull time of it. They wi'ie not allowed out of their cells for e\eicise. and some of them spent the fore noon in ned , Llngg and Engelwoio invisible the gicater poi tlon of the time , and Fleldeii too , Hpcnt a good poi tlon of his tlmn reclining on his cot. Spies kept a lamp bin nlng in his cell all inouiing , though ho did not seem tn be specially employed iu either reading or w riting. Hu had a number of long eonci sa- tlons with Mi. Osborne , the death watch , and seemed to be icstlcss and neivous. Par sons seemed to bo in an cxticmely moody fiamo of mind. He was niitablo and cross , the bitterness of his feelings appaiently in creasing as the end appioaclies. Tlio news paper men tried , on seer.il oe'casions , to get him to talk to them ncioss thoi-ngc , but ho only icturncd them haughty , unsatisfactory replies to all theii questions. He sat strain ing his CACS to read the newspapeis in the dim light of his gloomy cell , and all his acts bcwpoko a mind dlstmbed and ill at caso. The only member of the families o the con demned men who guiucd admittance to the jail tills moi niiig was Mrs. Engel. Sheriff Matson was around the jail as usual thin morning , but ho is slow to make any of his arrangements for the execution public , his reason for this being toa\old the legibility of any intcrfeinnco with them bofoio they can bocairled Into effect. The unanimous opinion around the jail which amounts almost to moral icrtnmty to day , Is that therowlll be lUo executions Fi iuuj' , KS'l that till ? Ben- tences of Ticlden and Schwab will be cmri- mutcd. Should this turn out to bo true the expectation is that Shei iff Matson will bo notilied of the go\ernor's intention in the mattei bofoio nnjliodj else , and it is thought that the go\ei 1101 maj take thu precaution of sending a special messenger to him , as soon as Iio ari'u'cs at hj dyiision. Should ho receive notice to day that the sentence of any of the men has been commuted , it Is believed he will at once , and as quietly as inn be , hns- them off tothopinitentiaiy. His Just possible that some of them may llnd theinsehcs them before to monow moiniiig hm ht at least , isthooutsldo talk. Thoihtiiff himself has avoided gh ing any eluo to his on intentions in the matter. In the meiutlme thn pi Isonei s are guai deil with the closest sci utiuv. Thuwatcli at their cells has been licblcd , and none of the other jirisoncis in the Jail aio allowed near their colls. When Osboino , the death watch , wtm icleased at noon to day ho talked to the 10- poiteisof his expoiicncowith thotondi mind men Ho said Spies was cntcitaining a stiong hope in icgard to the commutation of his sentence , but is perfcc tly calm and unmoved in view of death. Ho considers liimsulf a second John Biown and ajs ho icpicscnts a jinnciplo for which ho in perfectly willing that he should bo baciitlccd. Schwab , ho said , was veiy gloomy and depressed to-day. Ho had been full of foieboding all night , and tl dcpicsslon of spa its hung over him all foienoon to-day. Later , however , he seemed to bo lallying n little and was in better spir its just bcfoio Ml. Osborno left him than at any other time since jcstciday noon , No Moio I .xcrclso. CHICAGO , Nov. 9 The anarchists weie not let out in the exercise court this morning. Jailer Folz said that Lingg filmll bo let out no more until he is taken out for the last tiino. Visitors weie restiicted and in 11 emote pait of the Jail a few trusted deputies wcic perfecting final prelimln.uies needful to the erection of the gallows. As jet this nstiument of death has not been removed from the storage room , but c\crl\thing Is in i c.ulincss to go foi ward wlththo executions that is , eveij thing except the moro joining together of tlio frame w oik of the gallows , but that ean bo done in aeiy little while , Tor tlio flist tlmo since the supicma touit passed the case Nina Van Xandt was today denied ndmlsBlon , She tolled up the h on stall H In the lain , opened the btoim door and took shelter In the enclosed cntiy. A mo ment latir her white face appealed In the jail encluRuro nnd In humble tone ho was asked to bo allowed In. The dooikeeper shook his head , saying tnat 01 dors had been given to keep her out. Jailor Foi/ was buck somewhere in the cage. She sent for him. Ho eamo out and in u kindly but very positive tone informed her he was obliged to rofusa her entrance. Shoioinained where she was , holding on to the iron bars as if not compui- hcndlng what was said. The Jailoi continued : "Spies Is locked ui > Ho can't bo let out of Ilia cell and jou could lint BCO him anyway , if you did come in. " 'Slowly the young woman tinned away. She gionca her way down stairs In the rain , and with painful stops Him went out through the jail aid and tinned down an alley. But tlio jail door was opened while Miss Van Xandt was on the threshold. It was so opened for aged Mis Engcl , who was ac corded a brief intorvinw with her husband. None other of the wives or relatives of the anarchists i ailed to MO tlirm thin morning. They icmalncd unUsltod , with the Mnglo ex ception of Ficlden , wtm had a caller iu the peiKonof Key Ir Ballon. Splib , Parsoni and Llngg icmalned away out of sight , back In tlielr colls. Thcro was no noise or move ment of any kind to bo noti-d. Tl.e rain fall ing on the sheet-iron loof was all that broke the stillness , oxi ept now and then the heavy tread of oftlcinls going hither and thlthci to attend to jircpaiations for Friday's work.

Most of their friends and hjinp.itlilxeis. and their rounKol as wull , are out of town , Interceding witli the govunor. "What will the govtieor do I" was the query very often heard ubout the Ial ! thin morning. It WIIH the gem ral belief that nothing would be heard from Springfield until toinoirow. The nimrchlHtB made no inquliy , nor did tliey exchange any woids with each other at all during the lorcnoon.
