NEW YORK, NOV. 5.—Tbe latest returns from New York State, outside of New York and Kings counties, show 1,432 election districts already reported. From that section of the state tbe average Republican plurality liss been aa nearly as possible 35 in each. If the 564 districts yet to hear from return the same average plurality they will yield 19.740 plurality for Blaine. This added to the 49,938 plurality shown by those already reported will m'lbe tbe Republican plurality exclusive of New York and Kings County, 60.678. The Democratic plurality in New York county is, according to the latest compilation, 42,786 and that of Kings County 15,152, It appears, therefore, that tbe Democratic plurality of 57,938 will be overcome wit.fc upwards of 11,000 to spare by a plurality with which Blaine comesto Harlem river. This is contingent on the returns holding out as favorably for the Republicans as they have done up to this time in the state at large.

BULLETIN—1,432 districts outside New York and Brooklyn give an average Re* publican majority ot 3,636. It remaining 564 districts do the same, will give Blaine 19,740 majority, which, added to 49,938, his majority in the districts heard from, will give him a majority ot 69,678. Against this, Cleveland has a majority ol 57,938 in New York City and Kings county, making Blaine's majority in the state 11,740. The result depends on Blaine's vote holding out in the districts unreported. Late returns show he is actually increasing his average majority.-

ALBANY, New York, Nov. 5.—Governor Cleveland was at the executive chamber at the usual hour this morning though be did not retire last night until towards daylight. He maintains his composure and talks over the situation as though he bad no more interest in it than any other citizen. Telegrams,many of th?m of a congratulatory character and addressed to President-elect Cleveland, are pouring in upon him. Private advices received from Indiana. New Jersey and Connecticut indicate that these states have been carried by the Democrats. Vilaa telegraphs that Wisconsin is probably Democratic and Carter Harrison wires that Illinois may go tbeeame way.

Tbe indications are also that Calif rnia, Nevada, and Oregon may have gone Democratic, while it is possible that Cleveland may oe elected president withoutNew York, chances are that state win be the pivotal one. There is intense excitement in this city over the result. Business is partially suspended and the newspaper and telegraph bulletins aud offices are throngeu with anxious crowds.

There is e*ery indication that the vote will be very close. The Democratic committee claims the state at noon by 5,000. The Republican committee is equally confident, but does not give figures.

New Jersey.

The vote is evidently very close

and botli Republicans and Dem ocrafcs are claiming it. Genoral Stith, bolting member of the Republican state central committee, says to day that the Republicans will carry the state by from 5,000 to 7,000 majority aud the district by about 9,000 majority. Brady.s majority ovtr Evans, he says will be from 4.000 to 5,000. Evans, however claims the district by from 400 to 500 maiority. The returns from New York are awaited and read with tie greatest interest.

RICHMOND, Va., Nov. 7.—Few returns received this morning, lbiy do not c'laDgp tbe reeuit as heretofore teltgiaphed, except to fortify tbe Democrats in claiming the slate by 3,000 to 5,000 majority, with 7 Congressmen certain and a close vote in the First district.

Illinois.

CHICAGO, 111*, NOV. 4.—The congressional returns from Illinois come in very slowly. A brief telegram announces tbe re-election of William R. Morrison, Democrat. In Chicago, Dunham, Republican, in the First district, is reelected. In the Second the fight is elose between Finerty, Independent, and Lawler, Democrat. In tbe Third district, James H. Ward, Democrat, is elected as the result of a triangular fignt in the distriet growing out of the arbitration declaring George R. Davis not the regular nominee. In tbe Fourth district, Adams, Republican, is reflected.

In Carbondale, Gen. Logan's old home, the Republican majority is 97 greater than Sandfields. At 1:30 tbe reports were so contradictory, Gen. Loiran said: "Well, gentlemen, things are too mixed to-night for me to get any kind of an idea," and left for home

CHICAGO, III., NOV. 5, 2:45 a. ir.— Returns from tbe city and state are coming in slowly and are very much scattered. Ogle6by and Harrison are running very close for governor aud will probably take the complete returns Irom Cook county to determine the result. Two hundred and forty-four precints -aid from 8bow net Democratic gain of 6,155. If this ratio should hoido-.it 't would giv the state to the Democrats by quite a decided majority.

CHICAGO, Nov. 5.—Returns from Illinois come in very slowly for the state at large. Republican managers claim the state is safely Republican tor the National ticket. It is expected an approximate estimate will be reached early this afternoon. 127 precinots in the city ot Chicago, out of 171, give Blaine 3®, 642 Cleveland 34,510. Nothing has been received to ohange tbe completion of the Congressional delegation. The legislature on joint ballot is in doubt.

Georgia.

SATANNAK, Ga., November 5.—There is not doubt that all the ten Democratic Congressmen aie elected. Cleveland's majority is estimated at 30,000.

ATLANTA, GA., Nov. 5.—The Republican committee claims the Democratic majority has been reduced, but does not claim to have elected congressmen. The Democratic majority in the su.c from 85,000 to 50,000.

Michigan.

DETROIT, Nov. 4.—2:45 a. .—It is impossible to tell definitely at this hour what the result is in this state. The last bulletin sent indicates the Republican state and national tickets ahead, but at the rate of Democratic gain it seems there is a chance for the state to go Democratic. However, the upper peninsula is not heard from and it is strongest Re publican.

DETROIT, Nov., 5., 1 p. m.—It is believed the Republicans elect President iaA electors. For Governor, Begole, fusion and Algar, Republioan, will be very close with both parties claiming a victory. For Congress the fusionists elect representatives in the First, Fourth, Sixth and Seventh, all Democrats. The Republicans elect ia the Second, Third and Ninth .The Fifth is still in doubt but strong indications of the election of Democrat. The Eighth, Horn district, is, stili undecided but probably has gone fusion. Nothing additional is reported on tbe Legislature.

EAST SAGINAW, Mich., Nov. 5.—This district, tbe Eighth, has gone Democratic, although the figures are notknown. R. G. Horr, Republican, is defeated by Tarsney, fusionist. Tbe Ref pnblicans concede Tarsney a majority 500 and tbe Democrats claim 1,400.

HARTFOKD, Conn., November 4.— Cleveland's majority in Connecticut is about 700.

Ohio.

COLUMBUS, O., Novembtr o.—The ejection passed off quietly in this city, but the greatest excitement prevails tonight over the returns from other states, New York commanding the greatest attention. The Democrats are claiming a decided victory on the general result and are most active in furnishing bonfires and paradibg the streets. Tbe city has been taken possession of by a howling ma»c ot people, fend in the excitement one man, Wm. Wekliffee, a street car dr.ver, was shot dead and another man, a farmer seriously wounded. Ohio is decidedly Republican that the returns have' commanded but little attention among tbe masses. On the returns received up to midnight it is estimated the state will go Republican by from 28,000 to30,000. Blaine had a plurality in Columbus of 572. This a Republican gain of 336 over October It was carried by Garfield four years ago by 424. St. John got 76 and Butler 126 votes in the city. It is thought the Butler and St. Jobn vote ii. the state will hardly prove a factor. There was Republican gain in every ward in the city excepting one, and also iu. luding the German wards. The publican gains in tbe state are attributed by Republicans in good {measure to the displeasure of the Germans ovr the supreme court decision on the Scott liquor law.

COLUMBUS, O., N 'V. .*1.-068 of the 2,017 precincts in Ohio give a net Itepublican gain of 12,"24 over tin- vote of last month an averse of IS per precinct. Thin rate will give a Republican phir-siry of 47,222 which will probably be reduced by tbe retur is from the rural districts

towns and precints in tbe stale have reported. They show a Dem: critic gain of 6,000 over 1880, ou the presidential vote and if a like rate of increase is had in the remaining precincts will give the state to Cleveland.

The Democrats carry the First, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth and Ninth congressional districts. The Republicans carry tha Secand district, a Democratic gain af one.

AUGUSTA, Me., Nov. 5.—Conflicting reports and rumors have been cominjr te Augusta all night, but the latest despatches received by Blaide this morning give him a majority of .5,000 to 8,e0# in New York and confirm his election.

Iowa.

DES MOINES, la., November 6.—The returns will be compared with the vote of last year when Sherman, (Republican) for governor had 164,182, Kinne, (Demoorat) 139,093, and Weaver, (Greenback) 23,089. Sherman's plurality was 25.089 and majority 2,000. This year tbe Democrats and Greenbackers have fused. No comparison can be made with former years on account of tbe change in tbe ,precincts ard districts, and in 1881 and 1882 not near a full vo was polled on account of the hea5 storms. Butler and prohibition tickets were in tbe field but nave cut no considerable figure.

Tbe Republican state central com* mittee claim Iowa for Blaine by ovei 30,000 and full congressional delegation except the Second district.
