travelling through Bolivia and eastern

unique and fascinating blossoms can be

A curious incident Of the political cam
paign Ia disclosed in the attitude of the
theaters toward the presidential candi-
dates. The performers in the variety
theaters and the burlesque shows were
quick to soc how the political wind was
blowing, and they took advantage of it
from the very beginning. The audiences,
too, were quick to appreciate the situation,
and the applause each night showed exact
ly how the people felt. 1t is the universal
experience In this city that whenever Mo-
Kinleys name is mentioned or his portrait
displayed at the theaters the audience goes
fairly wild with enthusiasm and breaks
into loud applause and cheers. If refer
Gnce Is made to Bryan, 1t is received either
with few Kisses or in absolute silence.
Theatrical men who have Travelled through
the country report that practically the
same condition exists in the various states.
Another significant sign of the times is
the state Of tho betting. For the past
month Mckinley money has gone begging.
1t is impossible to get any bets, except at
big odds of three or four to ono. Colonel
Swords, sergeant-at-arms of the Republic
IN national committee, hos had intrusted
to him $50, 900 to bet on Mckinley If he
can get fair odds, but there is no money
here to bet on Bryan, and in the west no
decent offer will be made.

The significance of Chairman Hackett's
confident declaration will be appreciated
when it Is remembered that for decades
this city has been Tammany's stronghold,
where the Tammany voters have rolled up
majorities by the tons Of thousands, elect
ing mayors city and county officers with
n regularity that has been discouraging
TO the Republicans of this city. But with
the prospect Of huge plurality for Nc
Kinley in this city there is an excellent
chance to swing New York permanently
into the Republican column. The oppor-
tunity is especially favorable Mt this time,
when Tammany Hall is SO torn up with
fractional strife TINT thousands have left
the organization in disgust, never to re-
turn again. Besides, the moral effect Of
the defeat of Bryan in New York city will
be to deal Tammany blow from which it
may never recover.
The Republican victory throughout Now
York will include the return of Repub-
lican legislature, which will put an end to
the senatorial career of David 3. Hill.
His term as United States senator from
this state expires on March next, when
his Republican successor will represent the
Empire State for the next six years What
will become of Hi in that interval Is an
interesting political problem.

One topic Of absorbing interest here is
the size Of New York's plurality for Me-
Kinley. No Democrat Is so rash now as
to believe that Bryan will carry the state,
although Chairman Jones Of the Popocrat
committee makes the ridiculous assertion
that tho state will go for Bryan. One of
the keenest political Observers in the state
is MIR. Charles W. Hackett, chairman of
the Republican state committee. In dis
cussing tho situation Mr.. Hackett said:
"The only question in New York Is tho
size of McKinley's vote 1t is impossible
to estimate It, Indeed, would not DO
surprised If he had IA plurality of 100000
votes Mind you, say wouldn't be sur
prised; but, of course, don't expect that
much. We do expect Mckinley to carry
New York by 100000 however. We ex-
pect, furthermore, to carry every one of
the 50 counties except one, q thing that
has never been done before "
"How about New York city,"
well, we will carry New York too IL
constitutes one of the countless and, as I
said, we expect to carry every county OK
cept one. That exception does not mean
New York. On the contrary, evil carry
NewYork city by anywhere from "a. 600 to
$4,000, and expect the latter figure The
people are all on our side, and 1t is impos-
sible to toll how large will be their vote
for us -

Significance of the Recent
Assertion of Sem
ator Quay.
THE ELECTION IS WON.
New York State Expected to
Give a Tremendous Plural
ity, and So Will New
York City, the Tam
many Stronghold.
[Hnecinl Correspondence. I

New YORK, Oct. 2a.-Altogether tho
most important declaration Of the cam
paign which Is now rapidly coming to
close was Senator Quay's assertion that
"the election Of Mckinley and Hobart is
an accomplished fact, and that "they will
receive go electoral votes" out Of 449, with
every probability of getting g. votes which
are doubtful. This assertion derives its
force and authority from the fact that it Is
made by ore Of the shrewdest and most
skillful politicians In tho country. 1t is
made, Furthermore, as the result Of thor
ough investigation 1t is not haphaznrd
announcement. Senator Quay rarely VEN
lures to make statements concerning the
political outlook on the strength # parties.
If he does consent to talk, it is because he
knows what he is talking about and be-
cause what he savsi 10 inc result Of accurate
and Trustworthy information. 1t is for
these reasons that the people attach so
much Importance TO Senator Quay's dGcla-
ration. They accept it as statement of
fact and implicitly believe him when he
says, eve have the election and will hold
it,"
Senator Quay's statement has behind it
the sanction of the executive committee.
1t was prepared after the committee had
been in executive session for several hours.
All the committeeman agreed upon 1t, and
1t was then decided to issue it. 1t will bo
seen, then, that it not only represents Mr..
Quay's views, but also the views of the
committee.
