MIR. POLK AT GALVESTON

Galveston. Texas, November 3.-Colonel
L. ]. Polk. general manager OF the Santa
Fe. returned home today In order TO vote
lie has been absent from his office for
several weeks, during which time he has
oeen over the entire Santa Fe system and
made side trip to st. Louis. He reports
business In highly satisfactory condition
all along the line and looks for rapid
revival OF trade after todays election.
AS TO the movement OF corn through this
port Colonel Polk anticipates falling off
in receipts on account of the new export
grain tariff which went into effect yester-
day. This is naturally to be expected until
the foreign markets adjust themselves TO
the new conditions on this side. As Calves
ton is in relatively stronger position
than heretofore as to diferentiais when
grain again begins to move this port will
get its fun share.

CAMPAU CONFIDENT.

Chicago, November 3.-At p. m. Chair
man Campau of the campaign committee
expressed great confidence in the result
Returns from Ohio. Indiana and Michi-
gan look very well for us. said he, and
especially from the two former States. The
only thing that we are surprised at so far
are the returns from Illinois outside Of
Cook county These seem to indicate that
the State has gone for Mckinley The re
turns from Baltimore look rather bad. hut
We expected early returns to be unfavor-
able; nothing definite tonight"
At 1880 p. m. reports received at head
quarters indicate that of the doubtful
States Michigan, Minnesota. Indiana, Nil
nois. Iowa, Kentucky. Maryland and Ne
braska had gone for Mckinley.
A telegram from North Dakota claiming
that State for Bryan by 5000 plurality was
received.
Chairman Jones refused to concede any
Of the Middle Western States to Mckinley
with the exception Of Illinois, which he
comedies but by small majority He was
confident that later reports would ma
torial!y change the complexion OF the re-
turns which had so far been from strongly
republican districts.
National Committeeman Campau at
that hour claimed Bryan had carried Mich
iean by at least $4,000 plurality and that
returns from the mountain districts Of
Kentucky and Tennessee would show that
those States had also been carried by the
NobraskGn.
