New YoRK, Nov. 1.-The weather
prospects for tomorrow arc not allur-
ing, according to the weather bureau.
A heavy storm is now in progress in
the lake region and this evening there
is here cold, drizzling rain, probably
the advance guard OF this same storm.
The duration of the storm. it is pre-
dicted, will be about twenty-four hours,
and behind it is cold wave OF consid-
cradle strength. Mr.. Dunn said this
morning that the storm, tomorrow
would probably extend from Virginia
northward over the Middle Atlantic
and New England states and while it
might clear off before night it is not
probable. All over the rest of the coun-
try it will be cold and clear according
to the present indications.
Arrangements have all been COM
pleted for the election in this city to-
morrow and there is little for the man
apers to do except to see that the vote
is properly cast and counted. There
will be large force representing both
parties at the polls, and ii numbers OF
watchers is any evidence OF an honest
vote the ballot will be pure,
On behalf OF the federal authorities a
force OF fsupervisers, each with United
States marshal's certificate, will watch
proceedings at the polls, keeping the
place and watching out for alleged pro-
posed frauds. :,
John W. Jacobus, the U. S. marshal
of this district, has sworn in a number
OF these deputies-about 5000 in all
who will see that correct vote IS cast
and counted. On the other hand Sher-
itf German has taken time by the fore
lock and is ready to put lot Of men in
every election district to watch the mar
shals. It is therefore likely that the
presence OF SO much force will deter
either party from any attempted frauds
in this city and there is no likelihood
now Of any violence.
There has been much correspondence
between Mr.. Jacobus, John |. DaVen-
mort and the Tammany committee oil
LAWYERS, and little has resulted in the
way Of settlement OF the alleged diff
ficulties. Proclamations have been is
sued bv the United States district at
torney, Mr.. Mitchell, Governor Flower,
Lieutcnant- Governor Sheehan, the dis
trict attorney, Mr.. Nicoll, the attorney
General of the United States and others,
all apparently having the same purpose
in view-the purity OF the election:
The police have had their orders and
they will be the real preservers OF the
peace, il it comes to any such state as
to require tho interference OF anybody.
1t has been claimed by those who
hold to the federal view OF the matter,
that the deputy marshals have right
to 90 within the rails at the polling
places, and that they havo many other
rights, which the Democratic party
managers say they have not. 1t may
be that the courts will be called In to
decide the mooted points, but the
police seem to have decided for every
body, and they are likely insist upon
their orders being obeyed. Superin-
tendent Byrnes says that he expects no
trouble tomorrow and that the police
force will do its duty without fear or
favor.
Judge Barrett said to-day that from
the opening to the closing OF tho polls
tomorrow the judges OF tho supreme
court will attend in turn, two or three
at a time, in their chambers at tho
county court house, as has been the
custom in preceding years.
ExtraordinaryprGp have been
made in the matter OF looking out for
ali attempts to vote fraudulently. There
have been filed with United States Mar
shal Jacobus about 1000 warrants sworn
out against persons who are alleged to
have registered illegally. They will not
be served unless the persons named
therein attempt to vote tomorrow.
Information was received at tho
marshal's office to-day that body Of
800 colonizers, whose destination was
Coney Island, have been shipped from
Pittsburgh and other parts OF Alle-
pheny, county. The marshal said that
he was prepared to give them warm
reception.
Chairman Hackett, OF the Republic
can state committee, was seen by an
Associated Press reporter this afternoon
in regard to dispatch sent out by
Lieutenant Governor Sh0ehan, alleging
that the Republican state committee
has the ballots to Republicans up the
state headed by William Steinway and
Richard Croker, Democratic electors,
and followed by the names OF the Re-
publican electors.
~ wish to pronounce that statement
as absolutely and unqualitiodly false" q"
said Mr.. Hackett "rhis committee has
not sent ont such ballots, nor have any
Republicans. AS q matter OF fact, how
ever, that is exactly what the Demo-
Gratis have done, received sample
poster from up the state which had
been mailed by the Democrats to Re-
publican. II was headed by Henry
| w. Sage and Jesse Seligman, Repub-
lican electors, and the names OF thirty
four Democratic electors followed.
understand that the Democrats have
been spreading these bogus ballots
right and left among the Republicans
throughout the state.
The expectations at Democratic head
quarters tonight werG announced 1s
follows:
There has been an increase Of 50,-
900 in registration in New York,
Queens, Kings and Richmond. We
should got no less than 10000
majority out OF them. The Repub-
licans will not meet this with moro
