Chicago, THE Times heartily repro
bates BarDum's contest move to declare
that frauds have ben committed in New
York, and points out that the claim il
ridiculous on its face, the democrats hav-
ing every opportunity to prevent fraud
if attempted, and b ing, through their
methods and history, much more likely
to hive engaged in such disreputable
methods as they accuse republicans Of,
than are republicans Themselves. Besides
there is not single cred table witness or q
solitary Jot of evidence so far which goes
10 establish their claim.
Ifi6itne'S Philadelphia: Chairman
Cessna, of the republican state central
committee, says of Barnum and Kelly;s
patent fraud scheme: When the report or
rumor vas first circulsted, on Thursday
afternoon. Was not disposed 10 consider
it as serious. l thought it merely a
among stock gamblers; bu;
alter considering it for time | b, gin to
fear it as an effort among the most des-
perate men Of the democratic party to
feel the public pulse and learn whether
they could with safety attempt to per-
petTate this great fraud. l think now if
they had control OF the state government
Of New York ther5 would be danger,
but as il Is, l do not think there is any
cause for serious alarm, as the better ele-
ment OF the democratic party would not
encourage the fraud.
IT161rIe'S Philadelphia: The only
cause Of depression in stocks is the effort
Of Bsrnum and Kelly to disturb he peace
Of the country by sending out false and
baseless stories and starting schemes to
throw out electoral votes.
ITlbuIle'S Washington: Repub leans
still claim the Senate, since Maynard is
pretty sure to be elected from Tenn ssee.
where publican members Of the legis-
ature sre solid and democrats ali broken
up int faction; republicans have
nearly helf of the whole number; re-
public~ns have increasing confidence
mat Malone will vote will them, if
necessary TO organize the house; re-
publicans have all the contingencies of
1eath in their fSvo-, as in six states
rom which there are democratic SEN
stors who hold over, there are repub-
lean governors. On the other hand,
Only one tuch state which has q repub-
lean senator has a democratic governor,
Louisiana). Ibis contingency is not
likely 70 figure, as some of these senators
ire old and feeble men.
1t lie stated that Hancock is much dis
yusted with the serious bluaders and con-
emptible meanness that characterized
he conduct Of the democratic campaign,
Ind viii not assist the managers in COW
,ring up their own manifold shortcomings
oy joining in the cry Of fraud where no
'raud can be proved or found.
I7lter-O cedat'S New York: The demo-
ratio meeting, tomorrow, for conference
ID Barnums plot TO steal New York, has
lot called many prominent democrats
nto town. At least more are heard, and
hone are registered. Republican head
quarters are closed, but democrats say
hey will keep theirs open some time.
There is evidence that they iRtend TO pur-
.ue the fraud business. Barnum, Hewitt
and Scott are .till here, consulting fire.
Iuently, and summOning democrats TO
come here and advise next Friday at
noon. Bsrnum's cry was scoffsd at by
al respectable democrats at first, but
Bsrnum used the wires lavishly in send
ng specials and creating opinion. just as
ne used them 10 send the Chinese letter.
John Kelly fell in, in order TO conceal
bis o Wn mismanagement. Boss McLaugh-
liz has suddenly discovered that repeat
ing has been used in Brooklyn. Mayor
Murphy, Of Troy, and other men who
have for long time been = terror 10 re-
publicsns on account of their dis
honest methods, took the cue
and began to yell fraud. Many
speculations are aAost in political circles
as to the cause of all this outcry from
Barnum and Tammsny. By some it is
declared to e an effort to get up feeling
Of uneasiness to affect the stock market.
One democrat SAID w. L. Scott and other
members Of the democratic national COM
mittee were heavily interested in election
bets and they were working up the fraud
cry in the hopes of having their bets de-
clared of. 1t was generally admitted
that the interest of Kelly in the move
ment was purely to divert attention from
his own organizsti n. Ex-Li autenant
Governor Dorsheimer said there were
evidences Of republican fraud in this city
and that 1t is believed fully 10000 illegal
votes were cast. Dorsheimer, however,
was the only reputable democrat who
would say he believed there we're frauds.
Thomas Kinsella, editor Of the Brooklyn
Edyto, vell-known frs nd Of Tllden
and Hancock, rIdlculed the cry. He
said 1t was utterly preposterous tor any
one to suppose Hancock would lend HIM
self 10 any such scheme as this He did
not believe colonization on any such
scale as was charged was possible with ut
det .ction, and if it was carried on than
the imbecility Of democratic man
ayers alone would account for
it The election WAS over and
it was folly to attempt to reopen it.
Democratic "bnsses," he said, would not
be allowed to divert attention from their
own misconduct by getting up dispute
over the result. The democratic execu-
tive com tee, it was announced fe y
days ago, would meet tomorrow, but the
informal conference mentioned above
will be held in its place. On consult
ton with leaders of local factions, Bar
mum found that while they hsd loudly
charged fraud, they had no proofs. Thu
meeting Of the committee is therefore de
layed. 1t is thought in q weeks time NJ
answer will ba received from the chair,
man of each democratic county commit
tee in response to the request of v m. A
Fowler, chsirman Of the executive com
mittee, that they would compare tn
vote 10 their respective counties til tn
population IS indicated by the last cen
sus.
