Es-3.ia$oa the Result

NEW OLA, August III TX
. Times has several columns Of dis
, | patches showing the way betting
, is done on the candidates. From
these it seems that at Boston
Blaine is decidedly the favorite in
, betting circles, and odds, greater
or less, are offered on him with a
good degreee of confidence. One
gentleman, a Butler man, by the
way, authorized the Herald t. put
up any part Of $4,000 on the Re-
publican candidate, and Stated the
offer was not taken. Another gen
tlcman stands ready to take 500 TO
SIS, to almost any amount on
Blaine. The ether day bet Of
$1,000 to $500 Was made on Blaine.
An offer Of 800 against $40G
that Cleveland does not carry a
State outside Of the Solid South.
The same is true at Buffalo, where,
il one instance. it is shown that q
Democratic politician has $4,000
| in bank to back Blaine with. Some
even bets have been made, how
ever, at other places. The betting
is even on the general result, al
though s;de-betting on New York,
; Indiana, West Virginia, etc, are
frequent and heavy. At many
places there is no betting until
Cleyeland's letter appears and af-
, ter the Ohio election.
The times in its betting dis
patches says: Ia this city the drift
CT betting during July was slightly
in Cleveland's favor, the best odds
being about 100 to 50. When But
Ter announced his candidacy the
effect was to shift the odds AGAINST
Cleveland in nearly the same pro-
portion that they had formerly
been for him. Since then the bet
ting has ranged at Middleton S and
Kelly 6 Bliss from 100 to 50 for
Blaine to win, with little DISPOSE
ton to show money at this stage OF
the campaign. A San Francisco
special announces That betting
there is not lively either way, and
generally it is in accordance with
the politics of the persons making
the bets. At Harry Maynard's
even bets are made that Cleveland !
will carry California. Small odds
are given by the Democrats on
New York for Cleveland. Prom
inent Democrats say that most of
the betting is going even.

He claims that the starter has been
unfair on many occasions, but that
