MIR. M'KINLEY'S HOLIDAY,
The President-EleCt and Mrs. Mckinley
Will Seek Rest aud RepOse at
Cleveland. ::

Canton, Nov. 5.--NIajor Mckinley,
yielding to the pressure of friends and
physician. has at last decided to alb
sent himself from Canton for time
and will. with Mrs. Mckinley, leave
for Cleveland within a few days. Mrs.
Mckinley has been suffering from u
severe cold for more than a week and
is now convalescent. Her physician
thinks a change of air and scene will
benefit her and that is one reason why
Major Mckinley is going to leave Can
ton so soon Major Mckinley has done
more work in the last six months than
any other public man in the country or
in the world. He has not only made
250 speeches since his nomination, but
has greeted more than half a million
people and talked with and shaken
hands with half that many. In addi-
ton to this he has been in touch with
political leaders throughout the coun-
try and has had to meet. consider and
solve many of the difficult problems
of the campaign. He hhs been COM
PEELED to live in the public view and for
five months has scarcely had an hour
between 9 in the morning and ~ at
night which he could call his own.
Major McKinley's health is excellent,
but his friends, heedful of the great
task which confronts him, think he
ought to have u season of rest and 81
he will spend week or 50 quietly with
Colonel Nj. Il. Herrick. who was on his
staff, at the latter's home in Cleve-
land. He has made no engagements
and expects to control his time abso-
lutely. He is going away for rest and
his object in going to a friends house
in Cleveland inst cad Of visiting one of
the larger cities. is to be able to make
disposition as he wishes of his time
and not to be at all in the public view,
and to escape public functions or elah-
crate en1 1ertainments.
The telegraph companies are com
PEELED to keep six or eight operators al
work in order to handle the large num-
Der of kilograms nf congratulatior
which are pouring in upon Major Nc.
kinley. All through the night they
have been coming and every state In tnt
country has sent through its citizens
messages of greeting to the Republi-
can candidate. Many Americans abroad
are cabling their CONGRATULATIONS.

at which he works and began writing
a message of congratulation to his vic
torious opponent, Mrs. Bryan leaning
over his shoulder as his pencil went over
the paper.
Mr.. Bryan paused only during the
writing to tell a humorous story aprO-
pos of remark made by one of those
about him. When he had finished he
handed the dispatch to messenger boy
and then told another story. There ap-
peared to be nothing forced about the
pleasant manner of the young political
leader He seemed actually happy that
the strain was over. He told the repre-
sentative of the United Associated
Presses in the conversation that ensued
that tonight he would prepare a state
ment to be issued to the bimetallists Of
the country and would make it public
before noon tomorrow and not this
evening. as he had previously said Mr..
Bryan said he did not care to say any
thing about the result of the election
tonight, but in response to a question
as to whether he thought McKinley's
election was a blow to the cause of BIZ
metallism. he responded:
"The fight has just commenced"

LATE BULLETINS.
Mckinicy's Chances in Kentucky and
Tenncssec..Uther state Returns.


Canton, Nov. 5.-Advices from Ten
nessee received this evening indicate
that the state may give Mckinley a
small plurality. William A. Rule, of
Knoxville, wires that East Tennessee

Kinley and Hobart Thomas Baker, a
member of the Republican state COM
mittee, telegraphs that after all the

part of Democrats in middle and west
ern Tennessee, Mckinley still has a
plurality of 2S,000
ID. a. Dunn, of Nashville, wires that
the state will give plurality of about
$4,000. The impression grows here that
on anything like fair count Tennes-
see is for Mckinley.
Cheyenne Wyo., Nov. 5.-Returns
from all but 81 precincts in Wyoming
give Bryan 2G plurality. Osborne, DEM
ocrat for congress has 235; Corn, Dem.

of them is claimed by both parties.

Louisville. KY, Nov. 5.-McKinley

missing.
Cheyenne, Wyo.. Nov. 5.-Returns re-
ceived from all over the state indicate

Minneapolis. Nov. 5.-There is no

HANNA'S STATEMENT.

New York, Nov. 5.-The following
statement was given out this afternoon
at Republican national headquarters by
Chairman Mark a. Hanna
official returns have been received to
satisfy me that the following states have

Vermont. 1; West Virginia, 9; Wisconsin,
T.; Wyoming, /. Total, 2G5-which insurcs
Mckinley's election by majority of ~
in the electoral college If every other cleo
toral vote goes against us.
Another most significant fact of this VIC
tory is that Mckinley and Hobart's elec-
tion has been secured by a plurality of
over one million of the popular vote-the
largest ever given.
! am confident that we shall secure the
other two electors in Wyoming and the
l3 in Kentucky and North Carolina II
votes which are in doubt.
The Importance to the country of this
result cannot be over-estimated and is IA
matter of congratulation to all loyal and
patriotic citizens of the United States.
Incendiary utterances and pretended
claims which question the accuracy of
this statement should not disturb the
public mind.
