CHICAGO, Nov. 4.-Kentucky's ID votes
are claimed by both sides. Returns
from North Carolina, Washington and
Wyoming are meager, and they are also
claimed by both sides. The returns
from Kansas are go limited that neither

LOUISVILLE, Nov. 4.--The situation in
Kentucky is materially changed by the
receipt of late and complete returns
from out in the state, which indicate
that the result is in doubt, with q chance
OF victory in favor of the democrats. To-
night the streets are crowded with sill

Republican Bluff.

CHICAGO, Nov. 4.-Returne from the
entire country, although incomplete in
some states, are Of a nature to insure the
election of Mckinley. A sufficient num-
Der Of states have declared for the re.
publican party to make certain 2G3 votes
in the electoral college for its leader.
The states whose votes ara sure for him
are as follows: California, 8; Delaware,
3; Connecticut, 6; Illinois, 81; Indiana,
Is; Iowa, ID; Maine, g.; Maryland, s.;
Massachusetts, Is; Michigan, IA; Mime
sofa, 8; New Hampshire, 4; New Jersey,
10; New York, 3G; North Dakota, 8;
Ohio, %; Oregon, 4; Pennsylvania, 80;
Rhode Island, 4; South Dakota, 4; Yer
mont, A; Weet Virginia, 6; Wisconsin,, 70;
total, 2G3.
The returns show come interesting
features and in ONE respects have been
a surprise to the leaders of both parties.
The New England states have, as was
expected, given heavy pluralities for
Mckinley. The republican ticket was
was successful in Massachusetts beyond
what was claimed for it by the most en-
thusiastic.
New York and Pennsylvania We'd with
each other for the largest plurality, and
the figures do not indicate which one OF
them has surpassed the other. Each
state has given the republican candidate
a plurality of between 275,OOO and 1885,
GOO. To these states Illinois is a good
third in its plurality for the winning
candidates. If the percentage of gain
over the presidential election of 1892,
that has 80 far been shown, continues
to the end it will give a plurality of 49,,
600.
In Indiana, it any of the rules of esti-
mating the vote Of a state which previ-
Gus to the present election held good,
are still to be relied upon, there is no
justification for the democratic claims
Of having carried the state.
Ohio, which has all along been claimed
by Jones as q state in which Bryan
would push Mckinley very close, has
given the republican candidate an over
whelming plurality.
In Michigan, the election has resulted
in a very heavy vote for the republican
ticket. The free silver papers concede it
for Mckinley by $4,000.
West Virginia is confidently claimed
by the republicans.
Tennessee presents: some interesting
features Of the campaign. Patterson,
the gold standard democratic candidate
for congress in the city Of Memphis,
is running neck and neck with his op-
ponent, and the official count will be
necessary to decide between them.
North Carolina is claimed by both
parties,
South Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi,
Alabama and Louisiana are all for
Bryan,
The Virginia electors will, without
question, be for Bryan.
Nebraska has gone for Bryan, not
withstanding the republican claims, but
Kansas has ss yet said practically
nothing.

We have heard of the "business wom-

And there are pearls anc topazes and there is the brave sheen of gold ornament. Beneath is satin vest with rulings of narrow yellow lace, and wider lace shows at the wrists.

With this haunting confeetion is worn nearly flat hat with plumes standing behind and row of plaited ribbon all about the crown. .f there is any material prettier than lustrous green velvet-but there lsn't.
 Not quite so obstreperous are basque skirts when they fall in long points over the hips, sometimes with heavy braid following the points, much like the gores of a gaudy-edged umbrella. An extraordinary bodice of gray cloth, edged by little ribbon and middle sized ribbon and big ribbon of black satin, is q case in point; very much in point, for the wide epaulets are pointed like the basque skirts and even the high stock collar is half concealed by a series of sharp downward pointing

 My lady of the teagown looks about half as large when she emerges upon the street clad in purplish blue or -bluish purple serge. 44ith an avalanche of creamy satin down it's front-see how convenient the Swiss lingo is again!-and lateral and terminal mos raines of black fur.

The hat Is blue, the Plumes black and monstrous, and underneath the wide brim of the for mer is q little dash of heliotrope silk. Cream gloves stitched with the blue complete very beautiful costume.
 Skating gowns are more in evidence than in years past, though of skating there has been scarcely any save in the sheltered rinlss; and that is not big enough for all New York, though it is for all the world, curiously enough Black is prominent in all the skating gowns, generally with sunburst of white somewhere against the gloom of it, though except upon the ice there is little to be seen of last winters eombi- nation of black and white. The skater in bicycle bloomers is mainly imagin- ary, though she does. exist in fact.
 The long shoulder seam, which by some magic of it's own transforms q new woman into D Lydia Languish, has been merely a threat, perhaps for that reason. Indeed, there is a strong cur rent setting toward strong and sensible cut and this is shown in narrower skirts which clear the ground by comfortable margin; and in the trim and neat appearance generally of walk ing dresses.

Vanderbilt was abroad, but he had already gwen his war interview, and the first thing the duke got was his fathcr-in-iaw's patriotic utterance. The duke imme- diately got out his pencil and wrote a fiery telegram, which appears to have been recalled only at the urgent solici- tation of the duchess. The situation is peculiar. Should war come, the duchess would be arrayed against her enemies. and should the Vanderbilts pay over her dover they would be guilty of treason. Cornelius, although he is outspoken for peace, seems to real ize the anamoious position of the tam fly, and has been intimating it to his brother. The fact that these things are matters of current gossip shows how hard it is for the Vanderbilts to keep their secrets.
