the transaction concluded Uint Strlcklcr was
notifying the connty prohibition committeemen -
men throughout the state tint Omaha was
going ftolldngnlnst tha nmondmcnt. It was
nlso thought that ho hud invented stories of
intimidation against prohibition voter * for
tbo solo nurpoao of creating prejudice in the
rural districts to Intensify the feeling against
Omaha.

respondents said , however , thnt this con-
tcmptlblo'trlek had availed nothing sofnros

$ The truth Is thnt there were trifling dls-

v Never In the history of Omaha was there
51 greater Interest manifested In election re
turns than the people manifested last night.
Never wcro the arrangements for accommo
dating the public In this particular so thor
oughly satisfactory os these which Tin : Uii : :
provided last night , and which wore cujoyoa
by an iinmcnso audience of cltbbns of every
political persuasion , completely lilllnR the
bldewnlk.s and street bcUvocn the New York
Life and Tin : lira : buildings.
As early ns seven o'clo < 5lc the people began
to congregate on the walk in front of trio
, , largo canvas upon which the desired iiifor-
S mation was expected to appear us soon as
I reports from the various wards
of ttio city and from oAcr the state and natiou
* ' shosld begin to arrive. The canvas used was
i twelve feet square , and stood high enough so
' that everybody could sco what was thrown
upon It. 'I ho stcreontlcan work was excel
lent , and every word anil figure appeared on
the sheet lu HUPS so plain and clear that thov
could ho read almost n block away. The por-
1 traits wcro lifelike and easily recogm/ed by
all who know the originals. The series of
I cartoons elicited round after round of laugh
ter and applause from the delighted throng1.
There wcro many ladles In the audicnco and
tlioy ssoincd to enjoy the occasioa us much as
the gontlemcn ,
Tbo enterprise of Tun Bnn in furnishing
the bo.st means of gaining loliablo Infonmi-
tlon concerning the great battle of ballots
I was freely and frequently commended by
1 thousands who spent the evening in looking
at the canvas. As the majority against pro
hibition kept Brewing inora certain and
greater the pcoplo became nioro and more
enthusiastic , nnd toward midnight hundreds
and thousands of cillrcns who have been
i anxious for many months , lest tbo amend
ment should carry ami bring financial and
commercial ruin to the city and state , went
homo happy , feeling assured that the Dllght
of prohibition had boon safely and perma
nently warded oft hy the mighty voice of a
sensible people.
A Sll IiL Dlhturlmncc.
About four o'clock yesterday afternoo _
thcro wus a slight disturbance ) at tbo pollln
place of the fifth district in the fourth ward.
Theio was a red-headed prohibitionist there
Wltn n handful oC tickets' . Ho was a harm
_ less , seedy looking creature , and his appear
nnco would have made votes against tin
amendment rather than for It , but G. E
Harris , u saloon keeper , nnd seine of his
friends thought the free -whisky tickci
peddler had better bo relieved ol
his tickets , and they began by pull
in ? the tickets out of his hand
Oniccr Cox , who was stationed there- toll
Harris and his friends to desist , but thoj
pald.no attcnlloii , nnd finally the oftlcer wa :
obliged to shove them on" the bldowalk. Hnr
ris then hunted up Special Ofllcer Jacob ;
and told him to arrest the prohibitionists
This Jacobs was about to do , when Oftleei
Cox stopped him and said :
" ( iontlcmcn , that man is not disturbing
anybody , and you shall not bo permitted t <
disturb him. "
An alteration ensued between Co\ , Harris
and Jacobs , in which several prominent gen
tloiucn took the part of Officer Cox and tolc
lilin to stand his ground. Ho was llimll }
obliged to arrest Harris and .Tncobs and sent
them to tbo police station. Tbo proliihltloi
ticketpeddler soon took his departure , as hi
was persuaded that his presence at tlio poll :
was not doing his cause any good nnd iiilgh
lead to further trouble.
Swearing Unregistered Voters.
Thcro was not a tremendous rush of un
registered voters at the city clerk's oftlco , aj

A feature of the day wa

IN OTHER STATES ,
Definite Hoturns Meagra Owlug to the
llaavy Vote and Scratching.
A BEAUTIFUL DAY FOR BALLOTING ,
Ohio , However , is Treated to a Dose of
Bain and Snow ,
M'KINLEY MAY SUCCEED HIMSELF ,
The Tammany Triba Sweeps Everything
in Now York ,
PENNSYLVARIA CLAIMED FOR PATTISON ,
The Australian System of Voting
Gives General SntlHfnctlon
Wherever It in Trloil A
Itaiher Quiet Day.
The prevailing color of the returns from
other stalo.1 Is democratic.
The democrats have gained a feJw congress
men in each section and will probably control
the lower house of the next congress.
McKlnlcyhas made tremendous headway
against ttio results of the Gerrymander and Is
probably elected.
Massachusetts republicans concede the
election of young Itussell , the democratic
candidate for governor.
1'uttlson , democrat , has probably carried
PennsjlVanla by a smill majority.
Tammany has made a clean sweep in New
York.
The southern states are monotonously dem
ocratic.
Iowa and Kansas are doubtful.
Wisconsin shows democratic gains , with
doubtful results.
In New Hampshire the republicans have
sustained losses and will poihaps lese the
legislature.
la Colorado the democrats Imve made
gains , but the republican state ticket
and legislature will probably pull through.
All other states voted about as usual ,
In Illinois.
CHICAGO , Nov.i. . Ttio election In this city
today , though hotly contested , passed over
very quietly. The aay on the whole was
cool nnd clear. The chief interest centered
in the .contest for the shrievalty between
Congressman Lawlcr , democrat , and James
H. Gilbert , republican. Another clement ol
interest was the contest for county superin
tendent of schools , Mrs. General Mulligan
being the democratic nominee. "Tho llttlo
red school house" was the Issue. Mrs.
Mulligan Is a Catholic and her opponent ,
Albert G. Lane , a protestant , nud the public
school question was used for the purpose of
turning democratic votes from Mrs. Mulli
gan. A very largo vote was cast in thia
state In no election for years have so many
members of the richer chases and prominent
business men voted 03 today. The state
ticket was fatally scratched hero owing to
the agitation on the compulsory school
question and the uncertain strength of
tbo ticket of "citizens" or Patriotic Sons ol
America. The ticket contained only the
names of native-born Americans , being made
up of nominees of the two loading parties ,
with some prohibitionists where republicans
and democrats had both nominated alien-born
citizens. The contest In the four congres
sional districts In the city was largely n per
sonal oao and the tariff issue was in a great
measure lost sight of.
8:45 : p. m. Chairman Jones now claims thai
the republicans will probably gain congress
men in the Sixteenth nnd Eighteenth dis
tricts. IIu also claims the state legislature
on joint ballot uy n majority of 15. Tlio dem
ocratic committee does not couccdo the dc >
feat of their candidates.
Cmcvfio , Nov. 4. Of the twenty congres
slonnl districts In Illinois the indications al
11 o'clock are that Congressmen Adams ,
Hopkins , Illtt , Henderson , Hill and Payson ,
republicans , are unquestionably ro-clcctcd
as is also probably Howell. republican
There is not a great deal of doubt of the
success of Post , republican , in the Tentt
district. In the Eleventh Congrcssmar
Guests' ' election has been stubbornly contest
ed by Cable , democrat-nnd the result is stil
in doubt.VIIfo , Springer , Lane nm
Williams ( dom ) are re-elected nnd the In
dlcations point to the re-election of Smltt
( rep ) in the Twentieth district , and Format
( dem. ) In tlio Eighteenth. The Sixtcontt
district is still doubtful , hut Fithlan claim ;
ro-electlon , InCbicago the democrats stil
deny the election of Taylor in the First am
Mason in the Third districts. Tbo demo
crats are claiming the defeat of Cannon ( rep )
in the Fifteenth district , bnt the ropublicar
state control committee still ostcrts that he I :
ro-clcctcd by 500 mnjorltr.
Ciucino , Nov. 4 ( midnight ) . Rotvrns or
the state tickctarocoming inA'oryslow. Onr\
eight counties In tno state exclusive o. Cool
county have been heard from. These on thi

net plurality of 2,800 ovci1 Wilson ( dom ) . Ii
the ssimo counties two years ago , wljen thi

Xilurnllty over Cleveland was 5,000.
CHICAGO , Nov. fi. 1i ! : o a. in. Return :
from the doubtfnl senatorial districts of thi
state- are so meager that it Is impossible it
predict % vhat the political complexion of thi
next general assembly will bo. In severn
of the hotly contested districts the ludlca
tlous point to the clectioa of the dcin
ocratlo candidates , but that UICM
gains will continue to such an oxtcn
as to glvu them control of the general asscm
hly on joint ballot docs not yet appear upoi
the nlcagro returns. A great deal depend
upon the legislative ticket of Cook county
and it IB hiuxlly probable that the result hr : <
will bo ascertained until some tlnio totnorrov
morning.
QuiNcr , 111. , Nov. 4. The vote polled h
Adams county today shows a falling off o
fully " 5 per cunt from the vote of two yean
ago. The vote was contlnod to county oft !
cers.
Illinois returns will bo comp'ared with thi
presidential vote of 1883 , when Harrison'
plurality was iii.OOO. Chairman Jones , of thi
republican stnto central committee , claim
that all of the republican congressmen in tin
state have boon rc-olectod and that In th <
Kightcenth ( Morrison's ) district , Lluoltv
( rep and farmers' alliance ) , will ho elects
over Forman ( dcm ) , the present incumbent
The flwt re-suit of the election to bo knowi
for a , certainty was the success ofthopropc
sltlon to increase the bucking of the world'
fair to $10,500,000. , The vote of the city wa
practically unanimous in favor of adding ti
the fund already guaranteed 15,000,000 , by th <
issue of city bonds and by means of thi
south park bonds $ T > 00,000 more.
UI.OOMINOTOS , 111. , Nov. 4. The elcetloi

about Coo It county.
In New York.
Nnw YORK , Nov. 4. 10 p. m. Tammany
hall has gained n doclMvo victory all along
the line over the republicans and county dem
ocrats fustou. Grant for mayor n
not likely to fall below 22,000
majority over Scott. All the Tammany
candidates for the other county orllces nnd
Judges will have an average majorlt y o (
0,000 , The new ballot reform law worked
smoothly as a rule throughout the city and
the novel conditions of n secret ballot did not
have a pronounced effect on the vote of the
loivor districts , which some political prophets
hud anticipated. This was largely due to
the energetic work of both parties in educat
ing the voters In the intricacies of the law
before election. Thcro wcro few serious
misunderstandings.

the fact that the election was complicated 1
this city by the fact thnt a number of Imli

believed to bo between the democratic an
republican parties. The republican stat
committee claims that Loud ( rep ) tor cor
