in an almost unprecedented state of excitement and feverish anxiety at every telegraph and news office eager crowds are thronging awaiting the news of the closely contested election in chicago business is seriously interrupted and nearly every store and place of business is a headquarters for political discussion the times washington s special says a colored hayes club charged upon a crowd of whites on F street this evening and but for the promptness of the police the fight would have been serious the street is now patrolled the colored men are crazy over hayes defeat and under the belie belief that they aie to be re enslaved are ripe for every mischief it will be strange if a fortnight passes without some sort of riots SAN FRANCISCO 10 A new stock board 1 to be called the

water stocks and lastly mining stocks RICHMOND VA 9 the negroes tonight to night are very disorder disorderly disorders 7 large crowds gathered in the northern suburbs of the city and marched in

subsequently a party of whites went to a negro hotel on broad street and served it in the same manner all is quiet now NEW york 9 the tribune in an editorial says let jet it be borne in mind in the intense moments of this waiting for the final result of gf the presidential election that there ther e is one thing of vastly more imbor importance t to the people of this country than the choice of either of these two candidates or the success of either party and that is that whoever is declared elected shall be honestly elected neither tilden nor hayes can afford to be declared elected or to take the office of the president of the united states unless he has been fairly and legally chosen by honest ballots and honest counts more than this no private citizen can afford to nave have at such a time as this any tampering with the ballots or returns the partisans of hayes may apprehend great danger to the country from the election of tilden and the partisans of tilden may be equally apprehensive of serious consequences from the republican success but the country will not suffer from either results any such lasting damage as would come from a successful consummation of any y scheme involving in the least degree the purity of the ballot the fairness of the election olee olec tien or the genuineness of the returns the partisans on anther either elther ther side may have over estimated the consequences and magnified the probabilities bili ties of the evil growing out of their own defeat it would be very veny strange if it they baudinot had bad enot inot evory every good citizen should take that probability into consideration whenever he finds in himself as doubtless a great many honest but very ardent partisans do at such a time as this a willingness to accept any result in accordance with his wishes without questioning the means by which it has been brought about and every voter should consider beyond that that no rucee successes aises of any arty party nor the election of any candidate nor the triumph of any P principle rin ciple or policy can in the least measure atone for or excuse tile the stupendous crima crime against the tile whole people against the honor of the nation against the truth of justice and humanity which the falsification of the vote and deliberate robbery of a free people of their right to choose their own rulers would involve this Is a larger question than the success of the tho party or the election of the tho candidate and it must have tile tilo serious consideration which its weight and its solemnity demand happily unhappily there la Is nothing in the record of either of the two parties as at present con forbids the suspicion that corrupt men may be found in either who in such an emergency as this or even without the stress of BO so great a temptation would not shrink from the perpetration of such a crime do we need to bay say that in ln this state of things it is the duty of the honest citizens of both bolh parties to lay jay aside all partisanship and demand that the popular verdict as legally rendered be honestly recorded nothing can compensate for fraud nothing relieve the taint upon the national honor or justify the wrong upon the people which a dishonest manipulation of the returns would imply for reasons which have been heretofore stated and with which its readers are familiar the tribune has desired the election of the republican candidates and has worked earnestly to that end but the Tribune tribunes 8 past record and all its forbid that it should stand by consenting or seeming to consent to anything that has in it the suspicion ician of an attempt to defroud defraud by bv dishonest or false returns the peg people of their rights it can afford to stand I 1 to see a verdict recorded against what it believes to be bethe the cause of truth justice and humanity so long as that is the honest verdict of the majority indianapolis 9 returns from sixty two counties in

quite a st part has fatigued me and I 1 have not been able to be out today but I 1 guess I 1 shall get well now che cheers Ohe ers I 1 believe that the result will justify you in the expectations which have brought you together this evening the dis patches are not uniform but it will wili appear that the democratic ticket is elected the result in this state is is very gratifying I 1 have not caret fully examined the returns but the news of this city today to day places the democratic majority from to 1500 cheers which is a very great gain I 1 suppose the country over which governor tilden presides has given him the largest popular vote ever given to a candidate great cheers the great popular e expression ap is in favor of the principles which we supported and the purposes that we declared we have contended for a better government for a cheaper government and for a universal fraternity among the people of the united states I 1 believe that this emphatic expression of the public will and must be heard and heeded by congress and by the executive of whatever party I 1 think I 1 may say I 1 know it will be heeded if our expectations are realized in the election of mr tilden the claim of the republicans to an ownership of the vote of tile the soldiers has come to an end that was settled in the meeting ot of the soldiers and citizens in this city on the ath of october loud applause in which more soldiers participated than any other political meeting ever over holdin the state they then gave all men to know that they would woul d vote as they had bad shot for a restored union and the rights of the restored sections another proposition is established that the republican party is not the aly friend and protect protector ok of the colored people of the south if we have carried south carolina it is by the aid of the colored vote aa as was the case in one year ago the success of the democratic party parry will soon inspire such confidence in that vote that it will be divided between the parties if in this thia election the democrats have indeed carried south carolina and louisiana I 1 believe tile the trouble lo between the races will wholly disappear from the land great cheering tho the constitution of the united states has made the colored man a voter and he owes his vote to the country aud and and nud not to a party continued SAN FRANCISCO 9 0 during tho
