there was still ground for hope of his sue

turns. being from the larger cities, would be
against him. He left orders that the prin-
cipal bulletins be sent to his room, and he
read them there, manifesting especial in
terest in the reports from Nebraska. Mrs
Bryan spent the early part of the evening
with her guests. She did not lost her Gus

the worst. though evidently not devoid of
hope for better fortune than the reports
appeared to warrant. She retired about 10

guests to friends who had assembled.
These were Mr.. Bryan's sister, Mrs. Isene

JONES HELD HIS NERVE.
Bryan Certainly Had Been
Elected,

Chicago, Nov AT midnight Chairman
Jones gave out the following signed state
ment:
There is no foundation for the claims of
the Republicans. There is at this time,
midnight no reason to think that any one
of the states claimed by me for Mr.. Bryan
has failed to vote for him. While mislead-
ing reports are being sent out in many sec
tons, private advices assure us that each
one of these states has gone for Mr.. Bryan.
For two hours the most extravagant claims
as to Kentucky and Indiana have been tel
egraphed all over the country. while with
in the last few minutes our committees as
sure US that both are safe for us. Mr..
Bryan is certainly elected"
AT Ills Chairman Jones said:
This whole affair this evening has been
most extraordinary. l have just received
word from Raleigh, N. c., and it states
that North Carolina is absolutely safe for
Bryan by at least 5000 majority, and yet
reports have been giving it to Mckinley
all evening. This is only a specimen of
the way things are going. The Republic
ans seem to have taken charge of the re-
turns, and are sending them out to suit
their own purposes. There is something
wrong about the way things have been
going Tonight
Both Democratic and Populist leaders
emphs1cally claim Bryan's election.
II believe that the early reports are to
prepare the country to believe that Nc
Kinley is elected" said Chairman George
F. Washburn, of the Populst national
committee. Our private advices from the
states that we have claimed do not indi-
cate that Mckinley has carried one of
them, and we feel justified in claiming
that these early Republican reports are
for the purpose of preparing the country
to believe Mckinley is elected, whether he
is or not, and in case Of close vote.
should a contest be made, it would operate
to their advantage. We are not justified
in yielding single one Of the states which
we have claimed. At 1 o'clock a. m. all
reports that We have received justify US in
believing that Bryan is elected. If we
carry Indiana and Michigan, and our re-
ports justify us in claiming them, we can
lose Kentucky, which We still claim Mary
land and Delaware and West Virginia, and
still win.
..The reports from Indiana and Michigan
are from the sections having the best tele-
graph facilities, and We expected them to
be Republican. Our strength lies in the
rural district, which will not be heard
from until tomorrow. The few towns we
have heard from indicate great gains and
will Offset the Republican gains in the
larger cities.

SMUGGLING EXTRAORDINARY.
The VeraciOus Account of the Loss of
u Number of Chinese Thumbs.

Number of Chinese Thumbs.
From the Norwood On " News.
The report that Cinnamon are being
pulled across the st. Lawrence river by
means of rope stretched from Iroquois
to Hogansburg, thus gaining an entrance
to the land of the free and the home of
the brave. in spite of the law. is being
widely circulated. The lack of particulars
has led people to think that it is no trick
at all for the almond eyed Celestial to do
the rope passage, but people who are ac-
oLainted with the old ST. Lawrence know
that it takes lots of rerve to hang on to
rope and be dragged from Iroquois to Ho-
garsburg in the witching hours of night.
The strong current of the river makes
1t impossible to pull straight across, con-
seGuently Hogansburg is somewhat down
the river from IroQuois and in order to
keep the rope in place 1t has to run
through several guide pulleys anchored on
shoaling points. These pulleys are a source
OF annoyance to the passenger, and, as it
Is impossible to see them in the night,
their position is not known until a thumb
or finger is cut off. 1t was the finding
of these fingers and thumbs in the stom-
achs of fish caught along the river that
led to the discovery of this method of
crossing. One fish caught in Louisville
bay had two right hand thumbs in its
stomach.
The great wonder is how any Chinaman
could make the trip and have any fingers
left. After leaving Iroquois On the Ca
