HANNA'S STATEMENT.
Says He Knows Mckinley Has 90 Votes
Probably More

New York, Nov. 5.-M. A. Hanna,
chairman of the Republican national com
mittce gave out the following statement
at , p. m to-day:
sufficient returns have been received
to satisfy me THAT the following States
have been carried for Mckinley and Ho-
bart, without Il doubt: California, .: Con
nccticut, q; Delaware, 3; Illinois, p; In
diana, ID; Iowa, Is: Maine, Is, Maryland,

Ohio, %: Oregon, 4 PENNSYLVANIA, 81:
Rhode Island, H. South Dakota, f.. Yer
mont, t. West Virginia, &; Wisconsin, II:
Wyoming, /. Total 265 which insures
their election 10y Il majority of 81 in the
electoral college if no other electoral vote
goes against us
Another most significant feature Of
this victory is in the fact that Mckinley
and llobart's election has been secured
10y a plurality of over 100000 of the
popular votc--thc largest ever given
Il am confident that we shall secure
the other two electors in Wyoming and
the thirteen in Kentucky, and that North
Carolina III votes is in doubt
1.-The Importance to the country of this
result cannot be overestimatcd and is IL
matter of congratulation to all loyal and
patriotic citizens of the United States.
Incendary uttcrances and pretended
rlaims which question the accuracy of
this statement should not disturb the
public mind.
M. \. HANNAH
Mr.. Hanna's attention was to-day called
to the rise in American securities abroad
since the election. He regarded this as IL
very good augury and thought that the
rise would be II permanent one.

HOW TO PREVENT GROUP.

Some Reading That Will Prove Interest
ing TO Young Mothers How 10 Guard
Against the Disease.
Group is terror to young mothers and
to post them concerning the cause, first
symptoms and treatment is the object of
this item. The origin of Group is a com
mon cold. Children who are subject TO
it take cold very easily and Group is al
most sure to follow. The first symptom
is hoarseness this is soon followed by a
peculiar rough cough, which is easily re-
cognized and will never be forgotten by
one who has heard it. The time to act is
when the child first becomes hoarsc. If
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is freely
given all tendency to Group will soon dis
appear Even after the croupy cough
has developed it will prevent the attack
There is no danger in giving this remedy,
for it contains nothing injurious For
