ITS POLITICAL EFFECT.
Thousands of Voters May Be Dis.
franchiSed.

MILWAUKEE, Oct. 29.-Just what the
results of the fire in political way will
be seems to be in doubt. The Third
ward, to which the fire was confined,
was one of the strongest Democratic
wards of the city, and if the blaze re-
suits in DISTINGUISHING the men who
would have voted from their various
homes, the results, at least so far as the
city is concerned, may be materially
changed. Three thousand five hun
dred voters were rendered homeless by
the fire, and although they have al
ready registered from their former
homes. it is likely that the managers of
the Republican campaign will not over
look the fact that they have lost their
places of residence. This question will
have to be settled by the election COM
missionerS. There is little doubt. how
ever, that the men who registered will
be allowed to cast their votes. even
though their place of residence has
been changed.
