Office and talked to the woman as she
sat in her carriage, She engaged him

had visited the place during his absence
and had practically cleaned out the es-
tkbiiskment 1t is said that between
SIS, 600 and SO, 600 in money and bonds
were stolen.

MICHIGAN.

Each Party Claims Five Votes to Start on,
and Hopes of More.
LANSING, MICH, Nov. 6-The Supreme
Court of the United States having sustained
the validity of the Miner law redistricting
this State, Michigan, fer the first time since
the war, will cast portion of Its electoral vote
for the Democratic candidate for the Presi-
dency. Under the new spportionment the
State is entitled to IA electors-12 by Con-
gressional districts and two at large, and
the doubt rs to political supremacy is in
two or three of these districts
A Democratic elector will certainly be
returned from the Eastern district at large,
while the Western district will certainly
return Republican electoE. The Demo-
Gratis seem reasonably certain also of carry
ing the Fi1t, Second, Seventh and Tenth
Congressional districts, and thus, with the
one elector st large, are resting
secure in the confidence of having
five of the electoral vote of Michigan, with
q fighting chance in some of the other Con-
gressional districts The Republicans are
practically sure of the Fourth, Ninth, Elev-
enth and Twelfth districts, which will in
sure five Republican electors So each
party feels confident of five electoral votes
to start on, with fighting chance in the
Third, Fifth, Sixth and Eighth Congress
sional districts.

THE WORLDS LARGEST PHOTOGRAPH.

1t Comes From the City of Baltimore, and
Is a Picture of Columbus.
Baltimore American
Baltimore will have the distinction of
presenting to public view in her Columbian
parsde the largest photograph in the world
in the shape of picture, 9 feet long and 6
feet high, of columbus before Ferdinand
and Isabella" after v. Gribayedoff's en-
craving of Brozik's celebrated painting
This Photographic feat will constitute the
float of St. Plus Parish in the parade, and
will be Furthermore unique as the pioneer
experiment of adapting photography to this
purpose
The idea originated with MI. William Fl.
Weaver, an artist of recognized ability, to
whom the whole design of the float was in
trusted. The design is remarkable for its
artistic grace and beauty. The two colossal
pictures on either side of the float wi i'll be
framed in ornamental panels, also, photo
graphed, taken from the representation of
columbus before the Council" on the
bronze doors of the Capitol at Washington,
ths'lwork of Randolph Rogers. Surmount-
ing the float is half of the globe, on the
summit of which stands Columbus and his
two captains, catching the first glimpse of
the New World, one eagerly pointing to
land, the other as eagerly gazing toward
the goal of their hopes. while the great dis
coverer himself stands wrapt in a silent
ecstacy of greatful prayer. These figures
will be,in relief, about 5 feet in height.
Great dragons, with twisted bodies, their
tails. curying upward, support the four
corners, and at the end is to be large pho
tograph of Cardinal Gibbons
Four strong 1i0hfs within the float will
illuminate the pictures. TINS making them
splendidly effective and bringing out every
perfection of detail and finish.

A Few Hundred Votes Either Way VIII
Carry This State.
PROVIDENCE, R. L, Nov. 5.-It cannot
be stated with any degree of certainty
which way Rhode Island will go next Tues
day. Harrison carried the State by 400
in 1888, but there has been, it is believed,
a change in the voting complexion
since that time The campaign of
last spring was unparalleled in
the history of the State, vet the Republican
candidate for Governor had but majority
of 1876 and a plurality of 2.037, in total
vote of 81, ,661, as against 4, 076 as cast in the
Presidential contest of 1884. There has
been very little campaign work done, the
immense amount of tom-tom beating in the
spring having wearied the workers.
Notwithstanding the apparent calm, q
heavy vote will undoubtedly be cast, as it
has been given out by both sides that
enough money for legitimate expenses will
be forthcoming and that means that no effort
will be spared to bring out the vote.
Both sides are confident, but it can be said
that the plurality will be but few hun
dred whichever way it goes. The Con-
gressional elections are also in doubt, with
the chances favoring Lapham. Democrat, in
the First district and Capron, Republican,
in the Second district

The Four Fusion Electors Coolly Claimed
by the Weaverites.
ST. PAUL, MINI, Nov. 6-That Mime
sofa should ever become a doubtful State
would not have been believed, = few years
ago. yet that is what the Democrat commit
tee is now declaring. They claim the election
of D. W. Lawler - Governor. and assert
a firm belief in the choice of the Peoples
party electors whom they have indorsed.
As to the Legislature which elects Senator,
the Democrats claim that the nti-Republi-
cans will have majority Of but few votes
On the other hand the Republican COM
mittee claims majority for Knuttenbon
for Governor of from 90, 600 to $4,000, and
also claim q majority OF at least ten in the
Legislature.
While general claims are made of greater
Democratic strength, 1t is probable that six
out of the seven Congressman will be Re-
publican, and the Republican Committee
claims the entire seven. The Peoples party
managers are claiming the election of 1gna-
titus Donnelly as Governor, but give NO fig
ures, and they also assert belief In the
success of the four fusion electora

DENVER, Col, Nov. 5-All issues in
Colorado are subordinated to the silver
question. Ninety-fve per cent of the DEM
ocratic party in this State has Endorsed the
ticket headed by the Weaver elec-
tors The faction of the Democratic
party that placed Cleveland and State
ticket in the field has Withdrawn It's candi-
dates for electors, so that there are
practically but two tickets in the
field, Republican and Peoples The
Weaver party claims the State from 10, =
600 to $4,000 The Republicans, on the
other hand, say they will save the State to
Harrison, but refuse to give any figures
Should Weaver carry the State by as much
as 10, 900, the entire Populist State ticket
will no doubt go through with him.
In the States of Wyoming, Montana,
Idaho and Nevada similar complications
exist. Weaver will carry Nevada, and the
other States named are also claimed for
him.

NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-Next to the elec-
tion for Presidential elector interest
centers here in the contest for Assembly
because the new members will, with the
Senators elected last year, elect United
States Senator to succeed Mr.. Hiscook.
The Senate now stands: II Democrats, IA
Republicans and 1 Independent Repub-
lican. The Assembly is composed of 12S
members. At the last session there was q
reapportionment of the districts, some
counties losing and others gaining members.
The last Assembly stood: Democrats, 81;
Republicans, 81.
The returns from the Presidential elec-
tion are to be compared with the vote for
President in 1888 According to the official
legislative manual Harrison's total vote in
the State was $50, 338 and Cleveland's $685.

Claims on tho Doubtful States.

OF the - doubtful States, Nevada with
its three electoral votes, is practically con-
Ceied to the Peoples party BY both of the
leading parties, thus leaving only IA States
nc,ivelv in contention. Of these the Dem
ocrats make loudest claims of Alabama,
New Jersey and West Virginia, swelling
their total to Ia The Republicans ex-
press the greatest confidence IN carving
Colorado. South Dakoto, Idaho and Ne
braska, which would swell their total TO
49,
Admitting the claims of the two old par
ties and conceding Nevada to Weaver, the
very doubtful States remain as New York,
Indiana, Connecticut Kansas, North
Dakota, Wyoming and Montana. These
states have a total of 76 votes and of these
&c votes the Democrats must gain 40 in
order TO win, and the Republicans must
secure 50.
While on these figures the Republicans
would appear to have the advantage, this
presumption is not borne out when it is re-
membered that the CARRYING of Kansas,
North Dakota and Wyoming by the
Peoples party would insure to Democratic
advantage by tending to render choice in
the electoral college impossible and thus
throwing the election into the Democratic
House OF Representatives where Cleye-
land would surely triumph.
The Next House and Senate.
In addition to electing President and
Vice President, the people Of the United
States will next Tuesday elect 356 Congress-
men-this being the number which, accord
ing to respportionment, is to compose the
Fiftv-third Congress
The States which will elect Legislatures
to choose Senators to take the place of Re-
publican Senators retiring on the 4th of
March, 1898, are: California, Connecticut,
Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mime
sofa. Nebraska, Nevada, New York, North
Dakota, Pennsylvania. Rhode Island. Yer
mont, Washington, Wisconsin and wyom-
ing. Those which will elect Legislatures
TO elect Senators to fill vacancies caused be
the retirement of Democratic Senators on
the same date are: Delaware, Florida.
Indiana, Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri,
New Jersey, Tennessee, Virginia and West
Virginia
Thus, upon the result of the coming cleo
tion also depends the political personnel of
26 Senators to be elected to take their seats
at the same time the new President is in
aucurated, 16 of those being elected to sue
ceed Republican Senators and 10 being
elected to succeed Democratic electors In

Governor Fifer, 1t Is Expected, Will Rur
Behind the Electoral Ticket
7 CHICAGO, Nov. 5.-The Western State
to which all eyes have been turned with
greatest interest since the opening of the
campaign has been Illinois. The vote on
both State and National tickets will prob
ably be close. The Republican campaign
managers claim 10000 majority for Gov
ernor Fifer outside of Cook county. For
Judge Altgeld majority of 20, 600 in Cook
county is claimed by the Democratic COM
nlittee.
The chances are that Fifer will carry the
State outside of Cook, and that Altgeld will
have a good majority in Chicago and
whichever Of them will be elected will have
only moderate majority over his competi-
tor. 1t is expected that Governor Fifer
will run somewhat behind the National
ticket. The nomination of the Hon. A. E
Stevenson for the Vice Presidency has
added to the Democratic confidence in Ill
inois, as Mr. Stevenson's general popu-
larity throughout the State is too well es-
tablished to admit dispute.

will be returned for the remainder of the
term which rightfully belonged to him.
The foregoing districts have been lett ont
of the list of certainties rather for the pur-
pose of referring to them separately as
spots where the contests are being waged
most vigorously, rather than on account of
any fear of the Republicans that they are
In the doubtful column.
DR.. Floods Case Considered Critical.
The only Republican district that is
looked upon by the committee as being
really in doubt is the Twenty-sixth, or Erie
district, where the millionaire j. c. Sibley
is pitted against the equally wealthy editor
and theologian, DR.. Theodore L. Flood.
Sibley is indorsed by everything that is
against the regular Republican organiza-
tion, and is supported by a large vote They
like to have millionaire candidates in some
parts of that district. 1t is feared by some
of the shrewdest Republicans in the district
that Sibley will pull through. The most
exciting contests in the State have been
fought in Erie and Crawford, and every

Admittedly Close, but the Republicans Are
the Most Hopeful.
OMAHA, NEB., Nov. 6-The close of the
campaign in Nebraska shows affairs in q
very much complicated condition. While
there are three sets of electoral tickets
the spectacle is presented of the Demo
cratic managers doing everything in their
power to keep their candidates from secur-
ing votes The Democrats of the State are
being urged to secretly abandon their cleo
tors and throw their support to Weaver.
The Republican State Committee depends
entirely on the proportion of Democrats
who refuse to obey the dictates OF the
PARTY managers. The Chairman of the
Democratic State Committee predicts that
their advice will be generally followed and
that the Weaver ticket will be elected BY
at least 5000 plurality. The Republi-
can managers, however, assert that the
Populists who formerly afilisted with the
Republican party, have become convinced
OF the uselessness of vote for Weaver, ex-
cept to aid Cleveland, and that they will
vote for the Harrison electors in sufficient
numbers to offset the Democratic vote for
Weaver. They admit that the vote will be
very close, but they hold that the State will
stay in the Republican column.

SOUTH DAKOTA.


A Republican Plurality Of About $4,000
- Is Looked for Here.
HURON, 8. D., Nov. 6-Chairman Green,
of the South Dakota Republican Commit
tee, places the Republican plurality in this
State at $4,000, and other party
leaders agree with him. This
means the election Of four Repub-
lican electors, the Republican State
ticket, both Congressman and majority on
the Legislature. The Democrats and In
dependents, however, are confident of
success Formal fusion was not accom-
plished, but all except one Democrat have
practically withdrawn in favor of the In
dependents
One matter of uncertainty is the inability
to tell whether the Independent vote will
be as strong as two years ago. At that time
the Republicans had q clear majority. 1t
seems possible that the result viii be close.
