THE REPUBLICAN. I

Pblla. Pre* Aug. It.
Perry county's two delegates nre
assured to the Administration by
the election of fifty delegates favor
able to Clwirmun (iilkcson out of
sixty-two to sit in the county con
vention. In York county tho re
turns are slow and mostly indefinite,
but the city will go l'or the Adminis
tration. Montgomery county re
turns show that Quay will likely
have a majority of twenty-six in the
county convention. W. H.Andrews
showed a realization of the crisis to
Semftor Quay's cause in Adams
county by traveling to Gettysburg
to prepare his lieutenants for to-day's
convention struggle.
Primary elections for the choice
of delegates to the Republican State
Convention have now been held in
nil of the counties except seven.
The .counties of Cameron, Chester,
Fulton, Lehigh, Lycoming and Mif
llin hold their primaries next Satur
day, the 17th inst, and Philadel
phia closes the polling on the 20th.
With tho elections so nearly com
pleted, it is now possible to make up
an approximately correct statement
as to how the convention will stand.
For this puvpose the table ot esti -
mates origiually published by the
"Ledger" at the beginning of the
contest makes a good starting-point.
It was an impartial calculation from
a neutral source, and, when correct
ed by the actual figures of the elec
tions held since its first publication
it constitutes the fairest and most
trustworthy ba«is of judgement
which is accessible. We lirst pub
lish the table just as it was originally
given in the "Ledger:"—

Philadelphia 9 Total 27
This table gave Hastings 145,
just a majority of the convention,
which consists ol 239 delegates.
Taking the Hastings column we
now correct it by giving the gains
and losses as shown by the subse
quent elections, or by the known
position of delegates. In the case
of Philadelphia we conservatively
assign only five of the nine doubt
ful to Hastings. The known gains
and looses for Hastings are compar
ed with the table nre then as follows:
GAINS.
Allegheny 2 Philadelphia 5
Adams 2 Sullivnu 1
Bedford 2 Washington 2
Cambria 3 Wyoming 1
Lickawanna 2
Montour 1
Perry 2 Total 23
LOSSES.
Huntingdon 2 Schuylkill 4
Montgomery 7
Total 13
Met gain for Hastings Ift
Original Hastings C olumn 145
Total for Hastings 155
Leaving for Quay 134
Majority for Hastings 21
It will lie noticed that all of the
counties that hold their elections
next Saturday are placed on the
Quay column except Lycoming and
Lehigh. Lycoming is certain, nor
c:in there be any reasonable doubt
about. Lelii<;li. Even if it were lost
it would still loive 151 tor Hasting*
anil on the other hand, if he should
curry Chester it would bring his
vote up to Hit) and give him a major
ity of more than 30.
This is a conservative s'atement.
It would lie possible It make other
correct ions in favor of Hasting", but
wo have indicated only those which
nre well understood. The review
shows that the final round-up leaves
the convention clearly in the Intids
ot Governor Hastings and bisj
friends.
Claim M mmf Tmnnm,
NEW YORK, Aug. I J. —Mi*. Mary
P. Evans, the litigant in the celebrat
ed Gaines will case, which is now in
the Court of Appro Is at Albany, has
another lawsuit which she ssys she
intends to push to the end. Hhoud
•he be successful she will own a
great part of thin city nnd the whole
of Jersey City, iloboken and Klizn
beth, the villages of Dobbs Ferry
and German Flats, and a great part
of Delaware. Mrs. Evans is descend*
ed from the Leake family and lives
in Maryland, at White Gables. The
first of the family to come to
America was Recompense Leake.
Mrs. Evans said of her claim:
"One of the four sons of Recompense
Leake was James, my great-grand
father. One of the four brothers
was Robert Scarsdale, the father of
John George Leake, the millionaire.
While Recompense Leake was resid
ing on his farm, now known as Ilo
boken, bis son James left him and
went to Maryland, where he married
a Catholic lady. One child James,
was my father,s father. He died in
Kentucky 7 in 1807. His six children
were Mary Martin Leake, John Leake
James Leake, Richard Leake, Nellie
Leake, William Leake, my father;
Ignatius Leake Raphael Leake.
Mathew died without issue; the heirs
of Richard are numerous und are lo
cated in North Carolina, Georgia, etc.
while the heirs of James are to be
found in Missouri, Kentcky, and
Maryland.
''Of i,besc last lam one and the
oldest living. Robert Scarsdale left
only one heir, who never married
and whose estate is vast. John
George left his large estate in
Jersey City. Iloboken, New York
and Harlem to a boy named Watts,
providing he changed his name to
Leake. This he never did and died
at the age of eight. The surrogate
then turned over all the realty to
the Commonwealth.
