MISSOURI.

! ST. Louis. Nov. 4-Returns from state
are still coming in slowly and less than
half the precincts have been heard from
at o'clock. Almost complete returns
from st. Louis give Mckinley plu-
rality of $1,000 and Lewis, republican
candidate for governor, the same. At
this time 1919 precincts in Missouri, in
Guiding ST. Louis, have been heard
from. According to reports received ut
democratic headquarters Bryan made
gains throughout the state over the vote
of 1892, and the apparent plurality
which was gained by the republicans in
st. Louis will probably be overcome and
the democratic ticket elected, so the
latter claim.
st. Louis-Secretary Love of the state
democratic committee said tonight:
"Bryan's majority in Missouri will be
G0,000. The entire democratic state
ticket is elected by a plurality of 10000.
We have elected - out of 10 congress

makes McKinley's majority in the state
the republican candidates to congress by
from 1000 to 1000 plurality. Both
branches of the legislature are republic

runs about 1000 ahead of Mckinley in
the state.

are received by republicans that the le-
turns from 81 counties in the state show
republican gains of 10000 and if this
ratio is maintained Mckinley will
carry the state by 25OO0. Democratic
managers, however, claim the state by
10000
Raleigh, n. C.-The democrats have
elected Kitchen for congress over Set

Woodward. The populists carry the
First Third, Fourth, Sixth and Seventh

HARRISON DREW CROWDS

Indianapolis, Ind, Oct. 31.-Gen. Har-
rison returned to his home this evening.
During the day he made thirteen speech
es. besides one or two talks ut stations
which were not on the schedule. Every
speech was made in the open air. No
hall in Indiana could have held any one
of the crowds that gathered at these
towns.
Manchester and Wabash there were
great congregations; but the events of
the day reached their climax at Marion.
1t was O'Clock when the train reached
Marion. Gen. Harrison was taken in
II carriage through streets filled with
| torchlight professions to the public
square, where he spoke from his car
riage, which stood in the midst of the i'm

IN MONTANA


Helena, Mont, Nov. 1.-The campaign
just closed has been remarkable for the
absence of anything like vigor. The re.
publican candidate for governor met with
an accident early in his speaking tour
which compelled him to withdraw from
active work.
The ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS candidate for
governor went to California to make
speeches and Congressman Hartman went
east to make silver speeches. He made
a few speeches here, and Col. Saunders,
Senator Carter and others made few
speeches for Mckinley.
The fusionists claim Bryan will get
about two-thirds of the votes cast in the
state and the fusion state ticket about
the same.
The Mckinley republicans claim Nc.
Kinley will get 10000 out of $4,000 votes
and that Bodkin, republican for governor,
will get moro.

PALMER's WARM COMMENT

Springfield, H., Nov 4.-Senator John
NJ. Palmer national democratic candi-
Sate for president tonight gave the fol-
owing statement to the Associated Press
regarding the election:
The democrats who voted for Bryan
Mt the late election did so with the
knowledge that he accepted the populist
Dlatform of 1892 as well as their plat
form adopted in st. Louis in 1896. The
national democrats will never seek an
allegiance with the populists j predict
that Mr.. Bryan, who voted for Weaver
in 1892. will soon abandon the democrat
ic name. His candidacy, which was an
example of unreasoning socialism. was
exploded by the election of Mckinley
The issues of the canvass were dicta-
red TO the Chicago convention by Il com
'bination of politicians who are without
principle and only sought success. They
mad before the Chicago convention ma
cured plans for the nomination OF the
same candidate by the populists at st.
Louis.
Mr. Bryan. thanks to the good sense
and integrity of the American people. IS
defeated

MAINE For M'KINLEY.

Augusta, Me-, Nov. 1.-The chairmen
of the respective state committees eX-
press the opinion that the result in Maine
will not show much change from that of
the recent state election, though the
democratic state chairman estimates n
republican majority by several thousand
less. The republican chairman says
Maine will give Mckinley a plurality of
10000.
Chairman Beale of the democratic com
mittee says that the vote will be as fol-
lows: Republicans, 10000: democrats,
$4,000: prohibitionists. 5000; populists,
1000; boilers, 1900.

IN WYOMING.

Cheyenne, Wyo., eSov 1.-The cam
Raign in Wyoming closed with both par
ties claiming the victory. The republican
state committee has made thorough poll
of the state by precincts and claim the
Mckinley electors will receive 1900 ma
lority, the justice of the supreme court
1000, and congressman 2500. The claims
of the democratic state committee call for
10000 majority for the Bryan electors
and $500 majority for each congressman
and justice of the supreme court, but no
poll of the state has been made by the
democratic committee. There are no
other candidates on the state ticket.

United States is a natural ledge of ice sit
uated on the north side of Stone noun
tain in Scott county, Va. During two or
three months in the summer the ice is only
protected from the suns rays by thick
growth of moss. The formation of the
being thin in some places and thicker in
others, the average thickness being about
four feet. Persons of some scientific at
tainments who have visited the place for
the purpose of studying the wonder, say
that it has the appearance of having been
there since the time of the ice age, which
the biologists talk so much about. An
other plausible theory is that somewhere
beneath the bed is situated great natur-
al laboratory where ether is constantly
formed and expelled and that the process
of freezing is now constantly going on.

Seattle, Wash, Nov. 1.-The most ex-

fusionists, claim victory
Chairman Sweet of the republican
state committee says his party will have
5000 majority. His figures are based on
d careful canvass. The fusionists claim
everything in sight by majority of
1900 to 10000. They conccde moth
ing, and Secretary Thomas Maloney of
the campaign committee says Washing
ton will certainly 20 the fusionists from

A SURGING MASS OF HUMANITY
CONGREGATED AROUND THE
MKINLEY HOME.
A PANIC AVER1ED BY THE MAJOR.
AT a Critical Juncture He Proposed
Three Cheers for the Stars and
Stripes-A Woman Fainted-Sen-
ator Foraker Was Present.

Canton, O., Oct. 31.-In the awful
crush about the stand in the Mckinley
yard this afternoon to shake Maj. Nc
Kinley by the hand Youngstown wo-
man tainted. She was carried through
the throng to the east side Of the street,
where restoratives were applied, after
which she revived
Soon after this incident the Niles citi-
zens were crowded so about the stand
that n panic was eminent.
Maj, Mckinley, seeing this propitious
opportunity, proposed three cheers for the
old flag in the following words:
my fellow citizens, propose, in as
much as this is flag day, in honor of the
glorious old standard which we love 50
much, we give three rousing cheers for
it and what it represents in our national
ISSUE"
The people paused, the rush was stayed
and with great vehemence the three
cheers were given. The crowd moved
away and Maj. Mckinley passed quietly
into the house. The maneuver was
timely and doubtless averted serious in
jury to many in the crowd.
The crowds assembled today about the
Mckinley home exceeded any ever be-
fore seen. 1t is not only impossible for
the women's and children's parades to
find room on the streets or on the large
Mckinley lawn, but 240O school girls
managed to be marched into the Whiting
door yard, across Market street, so as to
be able to hear the majors response to
their greeting. Doorstep talking was
again out Of the question. Thousands
could not get within hearing distance of
Mai. McKinley's voice. The scenes of
enthusiasm were made more glorious by
the thousands of flags carried by those
who marched At one time there was a
line of counter marching paraders two
miles long.
Senator Faulkner arrived from Akron
about 5 o'clock and was met by Maj.
Mckinley and a reception committee and
conducted to the Mckinley home. The
approach of the two famous Ohioans
was hersided by such tremendous cheer
ing all along the line that the throng at
the Mckinley home caught the noise and
while the party was yet a half mile away,
an extraordinary ovation was extended
nearly that distance.
Maj. Mckinley and the senator, arm
in arm, mounted the speakers platform
just as the dim twilight made necessary
the lighting of the arch overhead. As
the brilliancy of the illumination made
him plainly visible the great gathering
again took up the cheering and one of
the most enthusiastic scenes of the
eventful campaign was witnessed.
Introducing Senator Faulkner, Gov
ernor Mckinley said:
my friends, l have the great pleasure
of presenting to you for a moment our
distinguished senator, Hon. ]. b. Fora
kerr" Great applause)
Again there was great enthusiasm
when Senator Foraker responded.

Detroit. AIich.-Thc Free Press state
compilations show that Mckinley has

Lansing, Mich.-Returns, incomplete
as yet, from SO counties in Michigan in
dictate McKinley's plurality in Michigan
will be 10000. The same returns this
morning give Pennoyer for governor II
plurality of $4,000. Republican con-
gressmen were elected in each of the
twelve districts of the state except in
the Third, and the Eighth is still doubt,
full between Congressman Linton and
Bruckcr. The legislature will be over
