Uncertainty as to the Resuft-An xtety Felt
by Manager on Both sides.
Correspondents Of The Evening Star
New YORK, Oct. II, 1884
There II great uncertainty 10 the minds Of
the managers Of the campaign as 70 what 10
going to be the result. A prominent Pennsyl-
vania democrat just here had u consultation .
few days ago with Chairman Harrity about the
situation and was frankly told BY Mr.. Harrity
that the situation was very close and that no.
body could tell what the result might be. Il
Is very evident that in regard TO New York state
nobody IL able TO give any accurate forecast re-
ton showed both parties very active in getting
out their voters. though. on the whole, the
democrats seemed to be rather more active than
the republicans. Much anxiety Is felt with ref
erence to Abe registration and polling returns
from the interior Of tho state for il is the out
of-town section Of the state that will do the
business one way or the other.
good deal Of pressure is being brought to
bear by republicans to bring TO the attention Of
the public the fact that the election of Cleve-
land will mean democratic control Of all
branches OF the government, and IL 10 claimed
general sweeping revision Of the tariff and
financial systems Of the country. Republican
managers think that II this fact IL brought
sharply to the attention Of the business men Of
the country they will not be inclined 70 encour-
age it. The average man who II In business to-
day, they claim, has built up his business under
the present protective system, and IL his husi-
ness has been successful they believe he will not
want to change the system under which IL has
been established.
COMBINATION N MINNESOTA.
The democrats have sprung . new scheme in
the northwest and are making fight 10 take

AL NJ m
son from Chairman Baker OF the democratic
committee Of Minnesota states that in four Min
nesota districts the democrats have Endorsed

insures the election Of four electors

SENATOR HILL TO SPEAK.
Senator Hill IL TO make Q speech In New York
city on October 25 The announcement Is made
that he will speak in Tammany Hall .. the So
called Cleveland and Stevenson ratification
meeting which occurs On that day. An effort
viii probably be made to get Mr.. Cleveland to
attend that meeting and appear on the plat
form, though whether he will be willing to
figure in that role is doubtful.
sTuMPINa FOR REPUBIIcASs
Ex-Congressman John Finerty, who is well
remembered by the people of Washington, hav-
ing represented Chicago district in the House
q few years ago, is stamping New York state
for Harrison and Reid. He was q democrat, it
will be remembered, when in the House, but
has been with the republicans for several years.
He spoke at Troy last night and goes to Albany,
Syracuse, Rochester and other cities. The
Irish vote seems to be rather doubtful in its
support Of Mr.. Cleveland. Mr.. John ID. Sell
man, a prominent Vermont Irishman, is also
stamping New York, and he says that the
German. italian and Hungarian
voters are hard at work in the interests Of re-
publican success. They are, he thinks, more
actively with the republicans this time than
ever before. ut is my Judgment" said he,
THAT with a full vote, fair day and an honest
count the republican party will probably carry
the state Of New York by q majority suffi-
ciently large to leave no question as 70 this
state being in the republican column for Har-
rison and Reid"
