Republicans Likely to Carry the state
by 3.OOO-Legislature Close.

Reu,bIicaps Likely to Carry the state
nv 3,OOO-Legislnture Close.
snecial Dispatch to The Evening Star.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, November 5.-The day be-
fore election finds the situation In Illinois
.comnlicated, That the democrats Will carry
Cook county seems probable, but they Will
do 60 with no votes to spare. Indeed, much
more surprising things have happened than
that the republicans will elect their entire
ticket in the county. The republican state
ticket will be elected by a safe majority, say
about 5000. The Illinois legislature will be
about equally divided as between republicans
and democrats. If either party controls on
Joint ballot 1t will be the republicans. The
most probable result however, is that neither
republicans nor democrats will control, but
the few populists who may be elected, say
from four to seven or eight, Will hold the
balance of power. The next United States
Senator from Illinois, therefore, is not un-
likely to be a man upon whom democrats
and populists can agree.
is likely to stand eight democrats and
twelve republicans, and two doubtful. The
republicans have a better chance to secure
these two doubtful districts than the demo-
Gratis. so that the delegation may stand
thirteen republicans and nine democrats
This represents a decided republican gain
OF the better known Congressman from ILL
nois Messrs. Hit, Mccain, Cannon and
Forman are likely to be reelected Mr.
Fithian probably will be, but his chances
are not so bright as those of the others
mentioned. Mr.. Springer's chances are
about even. He is by no means sure Of re-
election.

chance Of winning, though the campaign
has been so short, and the canvass so clean
and 50 lacking; In eUagaeration on both
sides, that the basis IF calculation is badly
shaken.
A Bitter Fight.
Another very importansimatter to be de-
cided by Tuesdays election is whether a
democrat or a republican, is to occupy the
seat in the United States Senate, which
Senator Camden will vacate on March T.
Aside from those who art direct partisans
of one or the other of the candidates for the
senatorship, the people have paid but little
attention to the legislative ticket, aside
from preparing to express their partisan
preferences. The fight between ex-Gov-
ernor e. Willis Wilson and Senator Cam
den on the democratic side has been very
bitter. Wilson has made canvass of
every, county in the. state, and has made
speeches for the congressional tickets all
over each district. Camden has made more
of a still hunt, and is said to have done
effective work. So much Of q personal
character has gotten into this senatorial
fight that the party leaders and newspapers
have advised democratic voters to only
consider the value OF legislative candidates
as legislators. 1t Is probable that the .legis-
lature will be Of the same political COM
plexiop as the majority of votes cast in
the state. Democrats are not expected to
vote for republican legislators on account
Of the known preference of the democratic
candidates for the opposite of their choice
between Wilson and Camden. Conserva-
tives in this city, who are well posted, say
the democrats will have a majority on
joint ballot, although there Is a possibility
OIL the populists holding a small balance of
power. .''7'+ '''~
In case the legislature Is democratic
there will be long and bitter fight. Will
son has a majority of the plain people on
his side, but Camden has immense property
and has been good friend
Of the state, developing more coal, timber
and oil resources than any other man in 1t,
and building more miles Of railroad.
If the legislature Is republican Stephen B.
Elkins will have the desire Of q lifetime
gratified, and will sit In the United States
Senate for six years.

A Lively Drive.

Two young men seated in blackboard
and driving a fast horse attracted consider
able attention on PEI nsylvania avenue last
night by an exhibition Of the horse's speed.
A policeman wanted to arrest them, but he
was unable to overtake the fast horse, and
SO the young men continued on their jour-
ney uninterrupted. When they reached
Wormleys Hotel one of them struck Mr..
T. b. Hedgeman, one Of the clerks to the
national democratic committee. who was
crossing the street at the time, and Mr..

MISSOURI.
A Close Fight I'm st. Louis, but Demo-
cratic Throughout the State.


Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
ST. LOUIS. Mo-. November 5.-Both sides
are claiming every thing In this city, while
In the state at large the election, as usual
is conceded to the democrats. This con-
cession Is made with sort of string to
II, which the republicans pull timidly. They
do hope to secure at least one state officer
but the general opinion is that they will
not do so. In this city a tremendous eff
fort Las been made during the past week
to bring out the entire Nelson strength in
the twelfth congressional district. N. O.
Nelson is the single tax, free trade candi-
date, ana his canvass has been unique
There Is really probability of his polling
a larger vote than either Cobb (dem.) or
Sterrell (rep.).
Joy, who was thought to have a clnch in
the eleventh on account Of having been
turned out by the present Congress- has
run up against a stump. 1t has just been
found out that he is vice president and at
torney OF ThielS detective agency, which
furnishes guards to corporations during
strikes. The eleventh Is essentially a labor
district. and the exposure will cost Joy
a great many votes. Still he may pull
through.
Bartholdt rep), present incumbent Will
without doubt be elected in the tenth.
John c. Tarsney, in the Kansas City dis
trict, Is not certain of return. The latest
from tjittt CITY is 10 t.le eIleCt tHdt ne Will
be cut tremendously by his own party.
In the fifteenth district Morgan is hav-
irg hard fight and the adverse vote at
Joplin, lead mining town of 1900, may
throw the odds against him. He is conf
dent, however. AS for the other candidates,
the democrats will probably be elected by
reduced majorities. Three weeks ago the
local republican ticket here seemed certain
of election. The tide has undoubtedly turn
ed now, and the democrats are gaining
every day.. One reason for this is that
nominate weak ticket, composed mostly
Of political hacks and professional office
holders. The city ticket will probably be
split, about half going to one party and
half to another. D.

RHODE ISLAND.
Two COngressmen to BE Chosen With
Republican Prospects Best.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
PROVIDENCE, r. l., November 5.-This
hasn't been a brisk campaign in Rhode
Island because the state had It's state cleo
ton last spring. The choice of two Con-
gressmen is the chief business tomorrow,
and the republican nominees have by far
the best chance of winning. The congress
sonal campaign has been warm, and the
democrats are humping themselves in
way that means that the republicans can
not afford to rest on their oars or to trust
to an easy election. 1t is a year in which
the democrats have everything to lose If
they do not hustle, and it Is a year in which
republican apathy and republican assur-
ance that the battle is already won may
take from the republicans the fruit Just as
they are about to drop it into their mouths.

Sewer Wanted.
John S. Larcombe has requested the Com
missioners to construct a sewer under the
assessment system in alley in square 49,
Georgetown, running in from Congress
street, alongside of the church to the in
tersection Of alley running south.
Filthy Condition.
The health officer has reported to the
Commissioners that b street between 18th
and 18th streets northwest has a depres-
sion in the cutters holding pools of water
and that the alley opening on 4 1-2 street
and I'm the rear of c street northwest is
in filthy condition and needs repair.
Cannot he Done.
Relative to the petition of Conrad Mueller
of ZIG Sd street northeast and others, re-
questing that the proposed sewer in Con-
gress street northeast. In square 74S. be
laid in the alley in rear of said street Cap
tain Derby, in his report to the Commits
sioners today upon the matter, recon-
mends that the applicants be informed that
their request to have the proposed sewer
in square 11S changed from Congress street
to alley in rear of said street cannot be
granted, as upon investigation 1t Is be-
ieved that the public interests will be best
served by laying the sewer In Congress
street, as originally ordered.
Want Neater Poles.
The Commissioners have been petitioned
by a number of residents and property
owners on Kenyon street between It'll and
14th streets columbia Heights) to cause
the Brightwood Railway Company to re-
move, without unnecessary delay, the I'M
slightly wooden poles erected by that COM
pany some moEths ago on each side of
Kenyon street. and replace the same by
neat iron poles, TO be erected in the mid
die Of the street, similar to those used on
the company's 7th street line.
Ahead of Time.
Property owners generally do not I'M
derstand that owing to the appointment Of
a board Of permanent assessors to revise
the last assessment the time for paying
the first half of the real estate tax has
been postponed until May, 1895. AS a re-
suit of this ignorance property owners are
focking to the District building to get their
tax bills. AS the assessment has not been
revised, and will not be until some time
during the early part Of next year, 1t is
impossible for the assessor to make ont
any tax bills save those for personal taxes

throughout the district has been made solely
on the tariff ISSUE and no personalities were
INDUCED in, the supreme effort being to
convert voters one way or another as to
the benefits of high or low tariff. 1t Is be-
lieved that in this contest OF advocaung
voters the republicans have had the best OF

will not be the easy matter to do that 1t
appeared at the time the nominations were

trict by over 1900 majority; but in the last
ten days the democrats have succeeded In

not an easy one but 1t is safe to say that
he will win.

CUMBERLAND, Nd, November 5.-Pol-
tics in this city today are practically at
standstill, the canvass is over and the re-

suspicious and afraid of his opponent, ana
actions are closely watched. Homecoming
the district in which the democrats claim
that Wellington will be so largely CUT Is

of over five hundred. The Williams people
claim that Wellington will be slashed right

The woman violinist is still sufficiently
rare to be marked, and even among the
comparatively few of such musicians the
soloist Miss Bertha Behrends, is conspicu-
Gus.
At the early ago of 5 years the golden
haired little girl tried to initiate the mu-
steal proclivities of her elder sister with
such success that short time later, before
she was indeed, she was duly provided
with music master and the violin select
ed as the proper instrument to develop her
decided talent. Much of the young girls
success is due to the careful training of
her mother, a lady of fine musical taste,
whose encouragement to her daughter was
invaluable. No hour was too early to find
her risen that she might sit by the prac-
tioing child, listening and criticising while
she knitted or embroidered.
Miss Behrends' first public performance
was at the age of at church concert.
Her childish appearance as she stepped on
the platform in white dress, her long
golden curls falling about her shoulders.
amazed the audience, whose wonder soon
gave way to delight as the little girl began
to play.
When she was ~ years old, her teacher,
Mr.. G. A. Allen Of Boston, the famous vio-
linist, was obliged at the last moment to
give up playing at a musicale for which hi
was announced. Rheumatism of the wrist
had seized him with disastrous result.
His young pupil however, was selected to
take his place, and before a critical audi
ence she gave the selection that was to
have been rendered by her teacher, win
ming the highest praise. 1t was at this
very early age, too, that she had the dis
tinotion to play with Camilla Urso.
Miss Behrends has made her home lat
terly in New York, where her delightful
talent has been much appreciated. She can
justly be called one Of the best of Ameri-
can woman violinists
In personal appearance she is of pure
blond type, tall and graceful, and gifted
with modesty of manner that is most at
tractive.-New York Mail and Express.
