Special to Evening IIkhalii.
Fottaville, Not. 8, l p. m. The results of
the elections of yesterday in this county, as
near as can be arrived at from information
gleaned by figuring on both the Ilopubllcau
and Democratic sides, and without an official
count, show quite conclusively that the Re
publicans elect five of tbeir candidates on the
county ticket. The Democrats elect foil rami
get the minority Couuty Commissioner by
operation of law.
The successful candidates aro :
Judge, George- J. Wadlingcr, Pottsvllle.
District Attorney, Michael P. McLoughlin,
Pottsvllle.
Treasurer, G. A. Doerllinger, Pottsvllle.
Prothonotary, William, S. Letb, Asblaud.
Clerk of tbo Courts, Hon. Jobu T. Shoencr,
Orwlgsburg. ,
E uc order, Joseph H. Nichter, PolUvflle.
Begister, Charles L.Adam, Mahanoy City.J
County Commissioners, Horace F. Keber, I
of Pinegrove; Frank R. Kantner, of Lofty,
and Qeorgo Opie, of Donaldson.
Poor Director, Henry Becker, of Tamaqua. I
The election of George J. Wadliuger as
Judge is conceded by the Republicans and
the Democrats claim his majority is from
1,800 to 2,000.
The Democrats figure that M. P. McLough-
lin has 13,641 votes and Charles E. Bergor
18,822, leaving McLoughlin a majority of
710. His election Is conceded by the Repub
licans.
The Republicans figure on 15,203 for G. A.
Doerfiinger aa County Treasurer and 15,207,
for J. L. Depew, his opponent, leaving a ma
jority of 01 for Doerfiinger. The Democrats
do not concede Doerfliuger's election.
For Prothonotary the frieeds of Y. 8. Leib
estimate that he has a majority of 2,500. His
election is conceded by the Democrats.
For Clerk of the Courts Hon, John T.
Shoener, the present incumbeut, claims a
majority of 2,200. His election' is conceded.
For Recorder, the election of Joseph H.
Nichter Is conceded at the olllco of Recorder
Jenkyn by from 80 to 121.
The election of 0. L. Adam as Register is
conceded at the office of Register Reese by a
majority of 020.
George Opie, of Donaldson, received tbo
highest vote for County Commissioner.
Horace F. Reber runs near him, and the Re
publicans claim the election of Frank R.
Kantner by a majority of from 250 to 300,
but some Democrats concede Kuutuor's
election by 13.
On the Poor Directorship the electiou of
Henry Becker, of Tamaqua, is conceded by a
majority of anywhere from 1,200 to 2,500.
The figuring upon which the estimates
given aro based was made chiefly by A. J
Shortall, former Clerk of the Courts.- All
the returns were in at noon to-day, and tbo
official vote will hardly cbauge the result.
The official board will meet to-morrow, at
uoon, and begin making tbe'olllcial count on
tbe elections,
TUB EABLY UOUE8.
Last evening Chairman Noonan, of the
Democratic Committee, conceded the election
of the entire Republican ticket, with the ex
ceptloh of Judge. That contest was never in
doubt from the time tbe first half dozen dU
tricts were received, To-day, however, tbe
Democrats claim a majority of their nomi
nees aa winnerc. Late this afternoon they
conceded the Republicans tbe Clerk of Courts,
Prothonotary, Treasurer by a small majority,
and tbe election of Reber and Kantner, the
latter by 13 majority. Opie, they say, re
ceives the highest vote.
The Pottsvllle Club, a Republican organi
zation, received tho returns. One of the
most interested members aa to the result was
ex-Judge Koch, who appeared well pleased
with the success of Wadlinger, especially bo
when the returns from district, where tbo
ux-Judgo exercises much Influence showed
large Wadlinger gains. Judge Koch, how
ever, displayed much solicitude for the ro
malnder of the ticket.
Never in the history of the county was
there so much cutting on both sides, but tbe
Democrats had a shade the better of it. Not
in recent years have the politicians been
more at sea than they were in the contest
Just closed. Even the "expert returns man
ipulators" were at thoir wits end in figuring
the result by comparison with the vote of
previous years. Most of them gave up the
task in disgust and awaited the seml-ofllclal
count to-day,

majority; 744, ana was closely followed by
Wadlinger. Brennan led Kantner by 701,
and Reeae, the Republicans' home candidate,
was defeated In this town by 373. Depew
had overy vote In Delauo but three, while
rvaniner s nome town or Lofty gavo him al
most a unamlmous vote.
It does not rcnuire a mncntrvtm. frift..
detect by the returns that the Republicans of
tbe town are more susceptible to the insidious

Both tbe Democratic and Riniilillrain

night to receive the returns. Tbe former held
forth in the Columbus Club mini, in ttml.

the Democratic claims covered less than half

all of them wont homo cherishing but one

Wadlinger,
The Republicans kent their li.a.lnnarf.r.

Columbus, O., Nov. 8. At midnight
the chairmen of the Republican and
Democratic stnte committees were
claiming the election of their respect
ive state tickets, and also a majority
of tho legislature Thero are no Jones
legislative candidates, but Samuel M
Jones, mayor of Toledo, is certainly
the closest third that ever entered tln
Ohio gubernatorial rare. The indlcu
Hons are that ho has drawn more
heavily from the Republicans In the
cities than from the Democrats, with
the exception of Columbus and smaller
cities, and that the Jones voto will
not be bo large In tho rural districts
There Is not the usual percentage of
either Republican or Democratic gain i
or losses, as the gains run for tlie
Republicans in some places nnd for the
Democrats In other sections. Kvrn
after the returns are complete from
Cincinnati, Cleveland and Toledo it
may be difllcult to reach the resuli
positively, owing to the tide In tlo
Jones vote, which runs In streaks and
caused Republican losses In same
places and Democratic losses In oth r
places. Judge Nash claims his elec
tion as governor, and Republicau
Chairman Dick said he was assured
the Republicans had carried every
thing, but ho had no llgure yet to an
nounce. A press representative sent
to Mr. McLean, at his residence, ual.
lng if he claimed his election, and re
ceived the reply that ho had m
answer yet to make. Chairman Se
ward, of tho Democratic committer,
sold he was not prepared yet to anawOr
the question.
Later returns show that the Demo
