PLUNGED ON THE RESULT
Some OF the Men Who Put Up
Big Money on the Elec-
tion.
Mike Dwyer Heads the List, His
Winnings Being More Than
100000.
Billy Edwards Held stakes Aggregating
$14O,OOO- Republicans Bet to

money changed hands on the election will
probably never be known. as some of the
big bets were made recently, but ID ia GER
tain that in this city alone the amount
waeered exceeded $500,000. Billy Edwards
held between $4,000 and $l50,00O. The
amount wageled in Wall street. either on
the exchanges or in brokers' offices, was
very nearly $200,000 and there were many
bets in other hotels than the Hoffman
house and also in the business districts.
| There were 80 many big bettors that it
would be difficult to say who staked the
most, bnt the persistent plunging OF Mike
Dwyer makes it possible that he put out the
largest amount of any individual. MIR.
Dwyer made some bets personally, but the
most of the money he staked was
| placed for him by two representa-
tiyes. One hunted up the republicans
in the downtown financial center
and Joe Vendig haunted the Hoffman
house. Both men had big rolls of thous-
and dollar bills, and rs soon as a Harrison
man squeaked he was beset. The down
town man bet mainly on the state at the
prevailing odds, while Vendig bet every
thing. The variety of bets made by this
sessed man. Vendig is small, modest
young man. whom one would never suspect
of great nerve. 1t required a cool head to
keep calm in the jostling mob that filled
the Hoffman house during the betting
nights. Vendig kept his wad in his inside
waistcoat pocket and never produced it
until the stakeholder was on hand and the
preliminaries had all been arranged.
OF course. nobody knows just how much
Dwyer won, but conset vative estimates
place the figures at $50 000. he ID reported
to have won every bet he made. Jim and
John Mahoney were also big and persist
ent bettors and were always on deck when
Harrison money appeared at the Hoffman.
Their united winnings should reach at
least $S0,000
sides, maintaining such odds that they
were sure to come out ahead, no matter
how the election went. but the big men had
the courage to back the announcement of
the democratic managers that the election
was sure for Cleveland. and these betters
ayers had sufficient confidence in their own
assertions to back them heavily, and thus
they, too, have captured large amounts OF
the enemy's money. Edward Murphy, Jr.,
of the state committee, Is reported to have
won S5O, 900, most of it on bets on the state.
| John Carroll, the IamInany man, Is said to
be at lenst $2000O richer, and Joseph j.
{ O'Donohue is $50 000 ahead.
There was Il good deal of talk about dem
ocratic bluff before the election. but the
result shows that those who pinned their
| faith to Messrs Croker and Sheehan were
amply repaid for their confidence. In the
light of this, the circular issued by Boss
Carter, of the republican national CAM
paign committee on the eve Of election, de-
claring the betting inspired by the demo

with such a scene of falling lights, not only
fdgety meteors, but grave old stars St.
John saw 1t in prospect, and wrote: ''The
stars Of heaven fell unto the earth, even as
q fig tree casts her untimely figs when she
is shaken of mighty wind. What time
that will be when worlds drop. Rain of
planets. Gravitation letting loose her grip
on worlds. Consultations flying apart.
Galaxies dissolved. The great orchard of
the universe swept by the last hurricane
letting down the stars like ripened fruit.
Our old earth will 60 with the rest, and let
it 90, for it will have existed long enough
to complete its tremendous experiment
But there will be enough worlds left to
make q heaven out of, if any more heaven
needs to be built That day finding us in
Christ, our nature regenerated, and our sins
pardoned, and our hope triumphant, we
will feel no more alarm than when in Sep
tember, passing through an orchard, you
hear the apples thump to the ground, or
through o conservatory and you hear an un-
timely fig drop on the floor. You will only
90 upstairs into another story, q better
1iphted story, better furnished story, q
better ventilated story, better pictured
story, and into story where already many
of your kindred are waiting for you, and
where propnets and apostles and martyrs
will nav you celestial visitation, and where,
with = rapture beyond the most radiant an
ticipation, you shall bow before Him that
"buildeth His stories in the heaven"

WORRIED MERCHANTS.
At the present time our merchants are
very much worried about their shipping
| interests. Since the deepening of the
| Columbia River bar the current is very
swift, and on this account tow boats have
not the power necessary TO handle the
ships. The vessels are also much greater
in tonnage. However, l suppose we VIII
have TO endure the existing state of things
until the coming session of the Legs
lature, when the matter will be taken in
hand. There is no doubt but that the
State will furnish tow boats TO handle all
classes of ships entering the port of Port
land.
Work on our city park has been going
steadily on all winter. Nature has done
wonders in the way of making this a
natural park, and with mans assistance
| it is becoming very attractive. However,
| the city is growing SO rapidly that the
question has been agitated of selling the
present park and buying a site further
| away. BESELENA.

NEW YORK, Jan. 9.-The stock market
opened active and strong. with first prices
generally from \ TO II per cent better
than those of last evening. while Missouri
Pacific was up e per cent and Chicago Gas
was unchanged. The closing out of old
deals, however, soon developed weak
temper in the list and everything but Chi
cago Gas retired frac;ionally during the
early dealings. That stock, after an ad-
vance OF q per cent, followed the rest
of the list down. New England lied
the decliLe, which amounted To "a per
cent in that stock, when Lackawanna
made spurl OF = per cent, rising TO Illh
and the general market rallied and under
the lead of the coal stocks. The market
narrower than usual of late and dozen
stocks attracted almost all the attention.
New England being still most prominent
In the dealings.
The market showed no further improve
ment after IL o'clock, but on the contrary
prices generally dropped and Louisville &
again became especially weak,
dropping from 81 TO sOjsc, while New
York and Northern preferred,
which was so strong yester
day, settled away to % against 2djl at
its best yesterday. AL the leading stocks
also showed material losses from first
prices and New England retired below
81. The bank statement checked the de-
cline in measure but the close was active
and heavy to weak AZ the lowest prices of
.he day.
The following are closing pr,ces.
