Washington, November 4-The Popu
list headquarters were quiet tonight, but
a number of hopeful followers of Bryan
were there and declined to give up the
fight. A statement was given out to the
effect that Mr.. Bryan had carried evory
southern state except West Virginia,
Maryland and possibly Kentucky. 1t

would probably elect him. Silver men.
it was claimed, would have over 100
members in the House of Representa-

the silver men were to control the next
Senate. 1t was further stated the Popu-
lists had elected over 90 congressman,
secured governors In probably three states
and certain officials in two or three
more states.
At the Democratic headquarters Mr..
Faulkner by no means conceded Bryan's
defeat He was still hopeful later re-
turns would prove favorable to the DEM
ocrat1c candidate. He was anxiously
awaiting returns from Kentucky which
would change the complexion of the situ-
