CARLISLE CONFIDENT.

The Yote by Which He Claims Hut He Will Capture the Speakership. [Washington Telegram.] The following table showing the votes claimed by Carlisle for Speakership, and the~ votes allowed by him to Randall, is said to be correct by Congressman Phil Thompson, who is the confidential friend of Carlisle: Car- Ran-| Car- Banlisle. dall. | lisle daiL Alabama.. * 4 Missouri 10 4 Arkahsaa ....... 4 1 Nevada 1 o California. 3 3 New Jersey.. ... 0 8 Connecticut.... 0 B,NewYork 5 16 Florida 0 1 North Carolina. 6 a Georgia 8 1 Ohio 6 8 Illinois 7 2 Pennsylvania... 0 -ll Indiana 7 2 South Carolina. 4 2 lowa..*. 2 1 Tennessee 8 0 Kentucky 8 o Texas.. 9 1 Louisiana 2 3 Virginia 1 3 Maryland 0 4 West Virginia.. 2 1 MaSsachusetta. 1 2 Wisconsin 4 1 Michigan 6 1 Mississippi 5 0 Total .110 80 It is admitted that Cox will get about thirty-five of these votes in the first, and, perhaps, on the second ballot, but the table is intended to represent the strength-of Carlisle and Bandall after Cox drops out. .The Tilden influence is said to be for Randall and the Tammany for Cox, but it is understood that when Cox drops out of the fight John Kelly will not favor or oppose either of the other men. The few Randall men here ridicule the extravagant claims of Carlisle, and say that in Tennessee and Georgia. for instance, the figures will be exactly reversed. Randall is expected to be here Thursday, and then his claims in detail, which have not yet appeared, will probably be made known.
