TENSION OFFICE UIRnGCLABirT. The explanation mado at tho Pension Office of the charges made against Chief Clerk Johns, Is that the case of the old soldiers of 1913 had tn>«-u marked special by tbo Comm is -aioner, and that tho office report which came up to Johns represented the term of service as slity-bcvcn days instead of forty-seven; that Johns then added three days for tbe lime con tained in travelling from the place of muster out to home, the case being regarded os very merito rious. Johns attached the certificate which it is necessary for the Commissioner to make •in i>ersoii, and signed the Commissioner’s in itial? to it. Subsequently it turned out •that the term of service was forty-seven Instead rt of an irregularity. The Commissioner at Cfibulvs no wrong motives to Johns, but has can celled the claim In question.

Nnw York, Nov. 6.—The Republican Stato Cen tral Committee estimate that tbe Republicans will elect their State ticket by 10,000 majority, and have mtOoritlcs in both branches of tho Legislature. The Democratic State Central Committee claim the State ticket by 30,000 majority, and the Senate by oao minority. They concede the Assembly to the Republicans. Barrett will probably beat Led with for Judge of tho Supremo Court. The Tammany men arc to sell out tho latter. O’Brien’s chances archest for Senator in the closely contested Seventh District. There is great exclten ent there, and thoro will proba bly be rioting to-morrow. The Reformers are confident of electing Tilden and Horatio Sey mour to the Assembly from this city. Tweed’s election as Senator from the lower wards is con ceded. There will bo a general closing of places of business to-morrow. The Stato troops have been ordered out. The excitement is at fever hcatjlu this city to-night. MONET. Tbe Wall street markets opened very dull, the election excitement contributing some what to tbe lightness of transactions. There was an amplo supply of funds in tbe money market, and rate* cloecdat *to 5 per cent. Prime endorsed mercantile paper is quoted at 0012, with few sales under 15. What is rated as good paper sells at about 16 per cent. GOLD opened at 112, and fluctuated 1-4 per cent both ways, and closed at tho opening quota tions, moderately strong. This was the result main ly of tho unfa vorable news from Europe respecting tbe quotations of American securities In London and Frankfort. In the latter prices were down neariy 1-2 per cent, nnd, as tho bourse Is generally least affected by unfavorable nows. It was sup posed that something decidedly bad had occurred to depress tho securities to such nn extent. Tho only solution that could be found wqs Blamark’s speech before the Reichstag. The Ger man bunkers were observed to bo buying gold in considerable quant (ties, and this, also, was regarded :is significant. There was very little covering of shorts to-day, and tbe market has been free from local causes, which would stimu late it «o that the situation in Europe is charged with the bull movement in gold. The carrying rates were J, 2,6, nnd 4 percent, and fell to flat toward the clo-o of the market. This fact indi cate* an increasing short interest, for tno mtc represents two dajV transaction*.to-morrow being a dUs no a. The government gold which will come out on Thursday, to the extent of two min ions, will relievo the market to a considerable extent. It Is under*tood that there ia a pool in the Gold Room to bull the premium, mid that they will lay tho foundation for their operations to-morrow evening, at tho Fifth Avenue Hotel, (■minting cn a disturbance at the election polls to give an impetus to tbo upward turn.

K colly good shipping brands wore not plenty, and were wanted at the close, the market was better and more active for all low grades. Medium grade* wore dull, though without any procure to realize. Wheat was active, particularly for spring and winter. Millers were buying choice amber and wlite wheats, the demand at the close beingchief ly speculative and confined largely to spring.
