DUE TO M'KINLEY'S BILL.
EI-Congressman Milo White Re-
ported to Be a Chronic Bolter.
MOST OF THE SPEAKING Is OVER,
The Last Meetings Of the Campaign to Be
Addressed Chiefly
By ORATORS WHO ARE AT HOME TO VOTE


NEW YORK, Nov. 3-Some interesting
literature was issued to-day from Repub-
lican headquarters. devoted chiefly to the
attitude OF the papers of Wales upon the
effect of the Mckinley bill upon their
chief industry The idea is mainly to con-
vince voters that the Mckinley bill has
made the tin plate industry in America OF
sufficient importance to call forth from
Welsh producers wall, showing that in
their own country the tin plate industry
has been almost entirely suspended.
Most of the quotations are made from the
World, printed in Swansea, the chief tin
plate district of Europe. The paper says
that within the past few days "work has
been almost suspended in the tin plate
works district" and further, that they hope
for an increase in trade in the next few
months, based upon the probable reduction
of the tariff in America and the hope of the
probable abolishment of the whole thing in
1894
The same paper then goes on to state that
the entire trade of Great Britain has been
much cut into, and blames the whole thing
on the Mckinley bill, and also states that
larre numbers of Welsh tin plate manufac-
turers have left the country to re-establish
their business in America under protection.
Milo White \ Chronic Bolter.
Regarding the accession to Democratic
ranks of ex-Congressman Milo White, of
Minnesota, General Clarkson to-day re-
ceived letter which stated that White is
m ancient bolter. He failed of renomins-
tion by the Republicans in 1886. and bolted
them because of it. He was succeeded in
the Fiftieth Congress by Judge Wilson, Of
W1nona, a Democrat, who was elected
mainly on account of Whites boiling ct
that time.
Hon. John Finnerty, now speaking in
Western New York. says regarding the
Irish vote there; SIT am not greatly de-
ceived, we will poll a much larger Irish
American vote here than in 1884 or 1888
The tide of victory is with us. L do not
think 1t can have any backward flow before
election day."
Charles Emory Smith, of Philadelphia,
was at headquarters to-day, and said re-
earding the situation in Delaware, where
he had been doing missionary work, that
the outlook for Harrison was exceedingly
bright, and he saw no reason why Repubh
cans should not win the day.
More Figuring on the Registration.
Republican managers tonight have is
sued table of registration figures giving
the total registration in 1888 and this year
in the districts below Fortieth street, which
is claimed as the dividing line between the
north and south parts of the city. 1t is
claimed that the total increase of registra-
tion is above Fortieth street, and amounts
to nearly % per cent over 1883, and that the
downtown decrease indicates q heavy loss
IN the Democratic percentage, and . conse-
Quent diminishment of Cleveland's plural
ity below 81, 600 in New York City.
Everything at National headquarters to-
day indicates perfect confidence in the out
come next Tuesday. Chairman Hahn, of
the Speakers Bureau, said the duties of his
department were about over. All assign
ments had been made, and speakers from
other States would finish their duties here
Saturday night and 20 home in time to
vote While the work of the campaign
would continue up to the last moment, most
of the meetings would then be addressed by
local speakers who had returned from ex-
tended campaigns, and were fully able to
give the townspeople the benefit of their
experience and the situation In outside
places
Considerable Democratic Activity.
At Democratic headquarters there was
much more activity manifested than at that
of their Republican brethren. Last night
the committee was engaged until A. M. to-
day, the object being to offset any possible
work of the Republicans in certain of the
Southern States At Republican head
quarters there seems to be a feeling of per-
feet confidence, and the managers are doing
little but resting on their oars and waiting
for the great event Of the year on Tuesday
next. Very few of the committeeman were
present to-day, and what few were there
had nothing much to say.
At the headquarters of the National
Veteran Tariff Reform Association letter
was received from veteran Joseph s.
Brown, of indianapolis enclosing public
declaration signed by over 200 e1-soldiers,
residents of Bartholomew county, Indiana,
declaring they will vote for Cleveland and
Stevenson.
Hugh G. Wallace, a member of the Dem
ocratic National Committee from the
State Of Washington, said today that he
had received advices that Mr.. Carter had
commenced to pour money into at least
four far Western States in the hope of Sc
curing them for the Republicans These
States, he said, have heretofore been re-
garded as Republican strongholds, and all
Of them until within the past few days
have been regarded as safe. They are Kan
sas, Colorado, Washington and Montana.
Mr.. Wallace is confident that the Harrison
ticket will lose q dozen votes west of the
Missouri river.
From the Democratic headquarters has

taches of the Government, are signed Ben
