THANKS OF PALMER
Given to All Democrats Who Voted
Against Bryan,

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Nov. 4-Senator
John M. Palmer, National Democratic
candidate for president tonight gave
the following statement to the Associ-
ated Press regarding the result of the
election:
1.-The Democrats who voted for Mr.
Bryan at the late election did SO with
the knowledge that he accepted the
Populist platform of 1892, as we'll as their
platform adopted in st. Louis in 1896
The National Democracy will never
seek an alliance with the Populists. I
predict that Mr.. Bryan, who voted for
Weaver in 1892 will soon abandon the
Democratic name.
His candidacy was exploded by the
election of Mckinley at the late cleo
ton. The issues of the canvass were
dictated to the Chicago convention by
a combination of politicians who are
without principle and only sought sue
cess. They had, before the Chicago
convention met, matured 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
Democrats know that Protection"
as the Republicans call it, is a fallacy
but they also know that the unlimited
coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 t.,
will deprive the American monetary
system and produce infinite mischief
They have accepted the least of the
two evils. / approve Of their conduct
and thank the Democrats who have
voted against Bryan and Altgeld, who
are the representatives of a depraved
currency and social disorder"

Latest Bulletin From the Republican
National Headquarters

CHICAGO, Nov. 4-Mr. Henry e..
Payne, the Republican national COM
lnitteeman, in charge Of the head
quarters in the absence Of Mr. Hanna,
issued the following this evening:
Z Chicago, Nov. 4.-Considering the wild
the country, we deem it proper and advisable
to state the result of the election as indicat-
ed by the returns to the Associated Press and
confirmed by kilograms to this office from
the chairmen OF the several state committees
and the members of the national committee
in the several states Mckinley has carried
beyond doubt a sufficient number of states
so that his vote in the electoral college will
be not less than 264. These states are the
following with the electoral vote of each
state: California, 8; Connecticut, s.; Delaware,
8; Illinois, "A; Indiana, Is, Iowa, 10; Maine, 6;
IA; Minnesota, 8; New Hampshire, 4; New
Jersey, 10; New York, So; North Dakota, 8;
Ohio, 49, Oregon, 4; Pennsylvania, 32; Rhode
Island, 4; South Dakota, 4; Vermont, 4; West
Virginia, G; Wisconsin, u. Total, 264.
In addition to these, the states of Ken
lucky, North Carolina and Wyoming are in
doubt, with the chances about even in the
three states, although the Republicans Of
Kentucky claim the state will give it's cleo
toral vote to Mckinley by majority of not
less than 600.
1t is proper to give the base of claims in the
disputed states. Advices late this evening
from California, from the member of the
national committee in San Francisco, places
the majority in that state at 5000; This is
confirmed by reports to the Associated Press.
kilograms from Indiana, from the chairman
of the state Republican central committee
and the member of the national committee
show that the state has given not less than
rs 600, and probably over 10000 for Mckinley,
and that the Republicans have elected all the
members of congress and carried the legisla-
ture by majority of forty on joint ballot
kilograms from North and South Dakota
which have been confirmed by reports received
by the Associated Press, place the majority
in these states at little more than 5000 in
North Dakota and $500 in South Dakota In
North Dakota we have elected the entire state
ticket and carried the legislature. In South
Dakota the legislature is in doubt There is
no possible foundation for the report being
circulated that Mr.. Bryan has carried any of

Adventure of Hunter With a PAM
Their in an African Jungle.


November Scribners.
The panther was coming for U.S. Our posi-.
ton was not altogether an agreeable one.
We were standing not more than FIVE yards
outside the bushes. Nothing of the panther
was visible; only the noise of his on-coming
told US he was charging, and l knew that
should not see him until he had burst his
way out of the bushes almost onto u.s.
= TO retreat backward there was scarcely
time, and l should probably have fallen over
rock or bush had I tried to. There was
nothing for it but to wait and shoot on sight.
So We waited. My Bill stood close behind
me, and though he had merely small wood
cutters ak in his hand, he never f1inched
step, merely saying, quietly: "Ata, Sahib,
alta" CSir, he is coming). 1t but wait
of few moments-then out from the dark
green corinda leaves burst the panther's round
yellow head, with jaws agape, right before
us. Quick as thought my rifle went up to
my shoulder-both barrels flashed out stimuli
taneously, staggering me with the reeoil,
for had six drains of powder in each barrel,
and was enveloped in smoke. There was an
instant of uncomfortable suspense. .Got me
or not got me?'-the next second I realize
touched. The smoke cleared. A snarling
growl came from inside the bushes-the
panther had retreated. My shikari sprang up
a tree and looked down; then called to me he
could see something yellow. 1 felt no disin-
clination to follow him up that tree, and did
so. Sitting astride the shaking branches I
fired at the small patch Of yellow just dis
cernible beneath the bush. Sounds of the
brute's body crashing amid the bushes fol-
lowed the shot-then snarls, growing fainter
and fainter. At length all was still.
