CHICAGO, Nov. Congressman McKin-
ley arrived in Chicago this morning, and is
stopping at his sisters house resting after
his hard campaign. He talked freely to an
Associated Press reporter tonight ON the
results of the recent election, and referring
to the new tariff law, said in part: ..If il
had much to do with republican losses il ia
not because Of the law itself, but because Of
tho misunderstanding of it's provisions
among the people and the studious efforts
of free-traders ut home and abroad to mis-
represent it. The alleged marking up of
prices was the most telling agency Of de-
ception. The Law was less than month
old when the elections occurred. Its effect
could not be felt or shown by
actual experience. Falsehood took the
place of fact. and imposed upon the credu-
ious people. Goods were said to have gone
rp IN prices which had been placed upon
the free list in the new law. and MANY arti-
cles whore duties had been reduced were
said to have gone up all because of the
new law. Time alone will vindicate or con-
denim the measure. Misrepresentation and
deception will NO longer avail. Now that
the election is over, those who care to
know ITS exact provisions can do so by ex-
animation of the law itself removed from
partisan prejudice. The PEOPLE will stand
~ protection. They always have when the
issue has been presented fairly The major
refused to say anything as to the policy of
the republican party at the coming session
of congress or the ticket of the party for
the next campaign.

tion from Wall street was that the situation
was improving. with indications that the
worst ID over. He declined to say whether
the treasury department would or would
not do anything for the relief Of tho money
market, but admitted that he was giving
the matter serious consideration. The de-
partment, he added, stands ready to redeem
~ per cent. bonds to the extent Of its re-
sources, but is not ready to make any over
lures to holders Of four per cent bonds. Tho
secretary said further that the recent heavy
disbursement had reduced the available
surplus to $1,000, 900, and it was question
in his mind whether this small working
balance could be still further reduced with
safety to the business Of the department.
III It 1s true that national banks hold $22,000.-
00O OF public funds, but we do not care to
disturb these deposits at present. In ex-
planation Of the small surplus the score
