ers will give some idea of the charac.
ter of the battle fought and won on the

results in the different States of the
Union;
P rom the News and Courir, November 5. ]
At this iour, 3 A. M, the telegrami
from $be North and West leave it in
doubt whether Cleveland or Blaine it
elected. Early in the night all the re
ports.were favorable to Cleveland, and
at one time it was countlently asserted
that the Democrats had carried New
York, New Jersey, Connecticut, In
diana, California and Nevada, as well
as the Solid South, and had a chance
of carrying Massachusetts and Wiscon
sin, besides securing 8 votes on the
Fusion ticket in Michigan. lefor
midnight there was a change for the
worse in the character of the returns.
It is now uncertain that Cleveland ha,
carried New York State, although th<
chances are still in his favor. The Ie.
publicans claim to have carried New
Jersey, where the latest I)emoc-atic re
turns give 7,000 majority, and, besides
this, boast that they have placed Vir
ginia in the Republican colhamtn.
The probabilities still are that the
Democrats will be shown to have car
ried New Jersey and Indiana, aid most
likely Connecticut, and there is noth
Ing discouraging and much that is en
couraginat- in the reports from Michti
gan anal Wisconsin. Without New
York State, however, Cleveland can
not be elected.
We hope to be able, in a few hours,
to givo more definite tidings of the re
sult of the mnomentons contest which
took place yesterday.
The following dispatch from the
lion. I. 3. Smalloy, secretary of the
National I)enocr"atic Committee, was
received at 2 A. M.:
Ni.w Youa, November 4.-To F'. W.
Dawson: We have carried New York,
New Jersey and Connecticut, and
think we have carried Indiana.
li. 1. SMLl.uv.
[Fromn the Newos and Uourier, November ;.]
The long agony is not vet over.
Until late last night it was comflident lv
claimed by the New York Times an'd
by the National Democratic Committee
that Cleveland had a plurality of 5,000
in New York State. Later dispatches,
however, brought the unwelcome in
telligence that the vote was so close
that the official count would bo neces
sary to determine whether Blaine or
Cloveland had carried the State. The
prospects for the Detmocrats are
brighter by far than yesterday; but
Blaine is reported to have been sun
mnoned to Newv York-for no good pnr
p)ose, we mayv 1h0 sure-anmd It, is d1ifl
cult to tell what to-dlay wvill bring fort ha.
New Jersey and Connecticut are uni
dloubtelyv Demnocratic, and( the D)emo
cratic leaders clim that Indiana has
been placed in the yscemocratic column.
Late dlispatches, however, say thuat it
will need the oflicial counit in that
State as well as in New York.
Ini Michigan the Fusion electoral
ticket has a majority, but, the full vote
of the State haas not yct been reported.

Mr. Daniel Manning, Chairman of the

the following message to the New
York Evening Post:
. ALBANY, N. Y.,. November 6.-By
dMcial returns reported from every
county, Cleveland and Hendricks have
carried New York State by a safe and
sure majoritt. No machinations or
false claims or pretended doubts of
Mr. Blaine's managers can change this
result. The friends of honest govern
ment and honest elections can be
everywhere assured that the Deno
cratic State Board of Canvassers will
see that the true vote is correctly de
clared. DANIEL MANNING.

CINCINNATI, November 6.-The En

New York that the State is safe for
Cleveland by 1,500 or better.
Indiana is positively Democratic, all
reports to the contrary notwithstand
miig.
Connecticut is safe, and New Jersey
beyond all doubt.
The Engtcirer has this bulletin from
New York, dated at 8 P. M.:
"New York is stirred from centre to
circumference. The streets are full of
men who are not loud, but desperately
in earnest in their denunziations of
Gould's etrorts to count in Blaine. It
can't, be done. Cleveland's plurality is
certainly between 1,000 and 2,000. The
excitement surpasses that of 1876."

Nxw YoRK, November 6. - The

ublicians as'well as )einoorats believe
iat Cleveland is elected, and the in
ignation over the attempt of Steve

this State 'is not confined to those
ho voted for Cleveland. If this thing
Deps up) much longer, an explosion in

iUrly accumulating, and sufficient
sve already been developed to show
at the Asssociated Press has been
it a mere tool in the hands of Jay

e lIepublican National ('omnittee
ere conceding this State to Cleveland
Was, at the sa:me time telegraphing
I over the con iii iv that Bhi ie would
rry New York by a large majority.
e feeling is that the returis have
en withheld for the purpose of
inipulation. Those which have bee'!
it out are very inaccurate, and al
ivs and invariably in favor of the
pnblicans., By this nicais they kept
3 true vote of the State from the
blie until the truth was ascertained
rough special dispatches.
Up to this hour almost everv point
the State has been heared froim, and
cre is no doubt that Cleveh'mel has
rried the State by a sure- and titi r
urality.

,tch to John Lee Carroll, of' Mary

"The claim of the National Republi

[From the Detroit Free Press, October 31.]
Ex-Governor Franklin J. Moses, of
South Carolina, charged) with stealing
$1f from the Rev. E. L. Rex ford, D. D.,
pastor of the Universalist Church, by
obtaining that amount from him by
falsely representing himself as the Rev.
Dr. JIlck., of Washington, spiritual
advisor of Guiteau, the assassin of
President Garfield, made an attempt,
about o o'clock yesterday morning, to
hang himself in his cell in the county
jail. The prisoner made a rope from
two handkerchiefs, which he he placed
around his neck and tied one end to his
cell door. Ile then kicked a stool on
which he stood from under his feet,
and was struggling when the noise
was heard by a prisoner who occupied
an adjoining cell. The inmates of this
ward are not locked up in their cells
at night. This saved the ex-Governor's
life. The prisoner who heard the
noiso arose and going into the corri
dor found Moses hanging. His face
had turned black, and in a minute or
two more he would have been strangu
lated. The prisoner used an old pair
of scissors which were allowed in the
ward for hair-trimmning purposes to
cut the would-be suicide lown, and
laid him on his bed, where he was re
vived through' the exercises of other
prisoners, who had been awakened by
[ cry of alarm. Moses said but little
>f his attempt, although lie ucknowl
edged that he was determined to (lie
rather than go to prison. lie realized
the position he was in and tor some
ime had been very despondcnt. This
wac the first attempt at suicide in the
ail for nmanyv years.
When Moses was brought into the
>olico court yesterday afternoon for
rial, he looked very pale and feeble
mnd displayed some nervousness, lie
vas neatly dressed in black, but had
uId unshorn face, which lie turned
way from>the spectators who gathered
o get a g"limpse of him. In front of
le prisoner's box sat, the Rev. Dr. Rex
'ord with his wife and daughter, ready
:o proceed with the case. Moses eyed
he reverend gentlemen whom he had
nwindled, but did not speak to him.
At 2.15 o'clock Justice Miner called
the case of "John F. May," when his
Attorney, George X. M. Collier, arose
and asked that it be continued until
the mental condition of his client could
be established. Ile said that since the
last adjourlnent of the case lie had
made diligent efforts to get witnesses
here in his behalf, but had failed. IIe
had corresponded with a number of
persons in the Southern States, who
were acquaintances of the prisoner,
and received several answers; but on
account of the election excitement they
could not come here until after the
close of the campaign. Among the
letters was one from the secretary of
the navy, who wrote that the son of
the prisoner is in th.navl depart
mecnt in Calif'ornia. It was certaini
that he could not comic to help his
father out.
Justice Minior rep)lied that the case
had already been continued anm unusual
length of' time, and he could not see
how the prisoner could be benefited by
another adjourinmnt. There is n'o
p)ositive assurance that wit nesses in
his behalf would be present at a intur~e
time. If a continmunce was granted it
could onily be done unitil November 5,
as the case will theni have beeni in court
for' a month, and( under' thme law it, must
be disposed of in that time-other
wvise thme court would have no jurisdic
tioma.
Mia. Collier' said that lhe was author
ized by his client to say that if lie does
not furnmish anyv evidence at the time
thme case is adjourned to lie will with
draw his p)lea of niot guilty amnd plead
guilty. The attorney agreed1 that if
the Court was dlisinclinled to grant an.
other adjourminent it would be useless
to proceed to trial, as the facts in thme
case were wvell uniderstood and a trial
w~ouild be waived.
The Court said that he had beeni
veryv ind(ulgenlt in the matter of con
tinning the case, both to the comn
p)lainiant and thme defend(anit. Th'le busi
ness of the court dlemanded that it be
deposed of within the time rprescribed
by law.
Mr. Collier' said in answer to this that
an adjournment of two or' three (lays
w~ould be oif noC benefit to him.
~Justice Minicr: ''What (10 you intend
to show for your' client?''
Mr. Collier: "1 desire to pr'ove by
medical testimouv that my clienit is
entirely irresponsible for lis acts, le
has beenm travelling from p)lace to place
engaged in the business lhe is charged
with here. I doni't, know anything
about himn except what lie hats personm
ill y told me and what I have seen in
the papoers."
Th'le Coturt: "'I have no judicial
knowledge of thme case."
Mr'. Collicer consult,ed Moses and then
umuomneed that lie would wihthidraw
mis plea oif not guilty and enter one of'
uiltv. The attornmey asked the Cour't
vbhetier lie would defer' passing sen
ence.
Justice Minor said he could niot do
his, and then addressing thme prisonerm
tsked him itf lie desired to withdraw
his plea.
"1 do," replied Moses.
"Have you an)ything to say for youm'
"'I desire to say so much that I do
iiot wvish to trespass on the time of
the C3oumrt in my case.''
"You have tihe whole afternoon be
fore you. I will listen patiently to
what you say."
Mosecs again said that he did niot
wishm to go to trial, and the Court then
seiitenced hhns to lmpjrisoniment ini the
house of' coi'rectioni for' ninety days
without thle alternative of a fine.
Mr. Co!!ier' asked that the prisoner'
be allowed to remain in jail until Mon
day before being taken to prison, which
thme Court granted.
Moses was then takeni back to jail.

KIDNEY TROUBLE
For over six years I haye been a terrible
sufferer frem a troublesome kidney complaint,
for the relief of which I have spent over $250
without benefit; the most noted so-called
remedies proving failures. The use of one sin
gle bottle of B. B. B3. has been mnarvelous,
giving more relief than all ether treatment
combined. It Is a quick cure, wntle others, If
they cure at all, are in the distant future.
