Democrats. If the attendance at politi-
cal meetings. and the opinions of close
observers be of any value. less than
fifty per cent of the labor vote will be
cast for Bryan. The Poles are almost
solid for the Republicans; the Ger
mans. Of whom there are many in the
ward, are practically united for sound
money. Other elements to be reckoned
with are for Bryan. A conservative
estimate of the result would be 300 for
Bryan.
The Sixth ward is another of those
places that it Is difficult to rightly
estimate. The ward is normally good
for 500 Democratic majority But
sound money sentiment is strong across
the river this fall. The sound money
leaders are in the ascendant SO far as
influence in concerned, and there has
cause of Bryan. Many influences are
at work for the sound money cause
and labors voice has thus far been
weak. But this is no indication Of
what labor will do at the polls On
the surface the ward is certain to go
for Mckinley; but fair estimate will
place 1T in the Democratic column with
zoo majority.
The Seventh ward is the one that
will roll up a majority for the sound
money cause. Two years ago Nelson's
majority was over 1000 votes. This
ing that they are almost evenly divided
McKinley's majority would be as large
as that of Nelson in '94 But If the
surface indications can be considered
the vote for sound money will be con-
siderably greater than the vote cast for
Nelson. Out of this, figuring that $500
votes are cast and that Bryan gets 700,
it may be expected that McKinley's
plurality will reach 1.200.
The Eighth it is thought will give
majority for Bryan. Just how large is
a matter of conjecture. There are
many Populists in the Eighth and they
will all vote for Bryan. That will off
set the German vote that will go to
Mckinley. With this change and con-
sidering the usual result in the ward it
is considered good guess that the
ward will give Bryan a majority Of
perhaps 600.
The Ninth ward is for Bryan. The
majority may be small. but it will GER
tainly be on the Bryan side, unless a
lot of work is done there. There are
more free silver Republicans there than

Special to the Globe.
OMAHA, Oct. 17.-Bryan's tour of the
East has intensified the interest of
Eastern people in the outcome of the
election in Nebraska. The fact that
Nebraska has but eight electoral votes
does not in the least lessen the appar-
ent anxiety to know the exact situation
in the state where Bryan resides-a
state which has always given good
majorities for Republican presidential
electors ever since admission to state
hood in 1867. Certain Eastern papers
have attempted to meet the demand
for reliable Information concerning the
campaign in Nebraska by sending spe-
cial representatives here to feel the
public pulse. They have talked with
leading partisans on all phases of the
situation, but they only took account
Of the out-croppings and could not get
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1896-10-18

there is little confidence that this will
be done. Nebraska has but eight votes
in the electoral college, while other
states have many.
Under such conditions no wonder
the nominees on the Republican state
ticket are in a cold sweat. While 1t is
possible for Bryan electors to win and
at the same time for the Republican
state ticket to pull through, there is
little or no hope in Republican circles
for the success of the latter. The SEN
timent now pervades the state house
that with the end of 1896 will come the
downfall of the Republican regime
which has ruled for more than quar-
ter of century. The nominees met
in Omaha week ago last evening.
The purpose of the conference was
to devise some means by which Omaha
can be made to give a heavy vote for
the Republican ticket. The LEGAL cam
paign was put in charge of Mayor Will
liam j. Broatch, an adrOit politician
and $500 were subscribed and put into
the hands of Milton Barlow for the
purposes of the campaign in Omaha
In other words, the state committee
HAS ABANDONED OMAHA
and will depend solely upon the citi-
zens emergency committee for big ma
jorities here. This is the only encour-
aging feature of the local situation
Omaha is safely Republican, but the
statisticians say this city must give
at least 5000 for Mckinley, and that
Lincoln must give 1,500 or all is lost
A careful house to house canvass, just
finished here, gives every reason to
hope for a majority of 5000. Republi-
can mathmeticians say that Bryan and
Mckinley will come down to Omaha
neck to neck and that Omahas vote
will be the measure of the majority
fIr-
sion ground swell is greater than the
Republican weather prophets care to
admit In fact, the Bryanites are con-
fdently claiming the state by 25,00O
and the alarm and dismay manifested
in the Republican camp give color to
the Pop prediction.
A Republican returned today from
the northern tier of counties traversed
by the Elkhorn road. He went to take
q survey of the field in the interest of
candidate on the state ticket. He
comes back convinced that the fusion
state ticket will sweep the Northern
portion of the state, which includes the
long since conceded to the Populists.
His view is only corroborative of many
other reports from that section

and his friends are reported to be do
ing their utmost to Slay MacColl in
the house of his friends. On the other
hand, Populists, Silver Democrats and
Silver Republicans are fighting des-
perately for Holcomb. Were the cleo
ton to be held tomorrow, the fusionists
would win hands down; whether Re-
publicans can regain their lost position
remains to be seen.

The advance was made on apparent
ly strictly legitimate grounds. The
manipu1ators apparently had no hand
in the matter and it was brought about
by the law of supply and demand The
principal factor in the raise in price
was the continuation of reports of
shortage in India-and what is more to
the point. actual buying and ship
ping to India. There can no longer be
any sort of doubt that the people of
the Asian peninsula are threatened
with famine and that their crops
amount to practically nothing at all
The greater part of the bread-stuffs
to be consumed in that country must
be bought. and no other country than
the United States has any grain to
sell. 1t has been clearly demonstrated
that the crop is short In all of the
countries of Europe and particularly
in Russia, the single rival of the
United States in wheat raising, among
the European nations. The conditions
are such that there is a disposition on
all sides to turn ones eyes to that
Mecca of the Northwestern farmer

purchase and arranging for the trans
shipment of nearly two millions, argues
that the demand is beyond question so
far as the people who deal directly with
the foreign consumers are concerned.
During all of the trading hours yes
terday there were takers for every
bushel of wheat offered at anything like
the reigning price, and the only breaks
made were due to the sharp realizing
or room traders. These sales were not
material and cut little figure with the
market. They were made by men who
had bought a few thousand bushels the
day before and who got rich enough.
There is great deal Of this small
trading here in st. Paul, and in Mime
apolis fortunes have been made by per-
sistent bulls who have been on the
losing side for years
The high mark yesterday at Chi
cago was .76s cents. When the market
closed it was quoted below that figure
slightly, but after noon the report from
the Pacific coast would have sent the
price to the top notch had there been
any trading. But a very small proper
ton Of the crop of the Northwest has
yet left the farmers hands and the ad-
vance already means millions of money.

fiuence 1t. The confidential agent was
also told Of the utter incompetency of
the state committee, which as a matter
NOTED the campaign from Republican
standpoint. He was told that the COM
mittee has been surrounded by a horde
of discredited camp followers obnox-
ious not only to the respectable element
of the party, but to voters generally,
and that If the Republican national
committee expected to win for McKin-
ley the fight must be made under new
commanders. He was told further
that the committee had sent only $4,000
into this state, which was but drop
in the bucket. A heavy assessment
had been levied upon the candidates
and the money thus derived had been
spent in getting a poll and to pay SAL
aries Of the droves who put in their
time around committee headquarters
The upshot of it all was that the ma
tional committee became fully aware
of the situation in Nebraska, and Re
publican leaders began throwing
BALLAST OVERHEARD.
There was a panic in party circles in
Omaha. Leading business men and
capitalists met in secret meetings to
formulate plans for saving the state
for Mckinley and sound money. In
these conferences the fact was devel-
oped that no dependence could be
placed upon the state committee, and,
that being true, any funds contributed
by Omaha capitalists must be dis
bursed by others. Meanwhile frantic
appeals were sent to the national. com
mittee for help, but so far the COM
mittee has done nothing but steer a
few big speakers this way There is
an indefinite promise of money and the
latest runner is that Senator Thurston
will from this time on stay at home
and direct the fight; that the national
committee will deal solely with the
senator in all efforts in. behalf Of the
Republican electoral ticket. ,Uhe SEN
ator said to a. party worker recently
that he had grave doubts of the sue
cess of the Republican ticket in Ne
braska. Everybody hopes the national
committee will storm the state and
make a hand-to-hand contest, but

In almost any other ward. Timothy
Reardon has done considerable mis-
sionary work for the Bryanites While
there has been much apparent interest
at the sound money meetings, 1t is
claimed that a majority of the work
ingmen Of the ward have been in
f1uenced more by free silver oratory or
have not been drawn away from the
Popocratic ticket by the sound money
arguments.
The Tenth and Eleventh wards are in
the Republican column to stay The
two wards will cast combined ma
jority vote of $50 for Mckinley. The
reasons for the result are not hard to
find. The wards have always been
Republican, and will continue to vote
that way this year.
The country will be in line for Nc
Kinley by a small majority Farmers
may be Populists in far distant parts
of the state, and in the wilds Of Dakota
county, but few of them are willing to
turn the reins of government over to
the Democrats this year. A chat with
the. farmers about the market places
will convince the most skeptical that
the rural voters are for sound money
New Brighton, Mounds View and
White Bear Town are liable to be found
on the side Of Bryan, but when the
country returns are all in and counted,
McNnley's majority may be figured up
at ZOO
If these estimates be correct, and they
have been secured not from politicians
or the friends Of candidates, but from
observant individuals who are familiar
with the relative voting strength of
their precincts and the apparent senti-
ment of the voters, then Mckinley Will
carry the city by small majority. The

If the sound money people of st. Paul
hope to bring about such,a result at the
polls in the coming election as they
expected to do six weeks ago it is
necessary for them to redouble their
efforts along that line. The sentiment
is not as strong today as 1t was at that
time or in fact as it was three weeks
ago. This will not be pleasant news
for those who are not already aware
of the fact, but it is the case never
theless SO far as the G o b is able to
learn. If the election were tomorrow a
conservative estimate would not give
Mckinley Ramsey county by more
than 1,70O votes, while six weeks ago it
was believed he would roll up any
kind Of majority from 1900 up. That
was the kind of a majority the op-
ponents Of Bryan hoped for and may
yet be able to secure, but it is going to
take a lot of hard work to obtain it.

Prices Went Up Rapidly and the
Trades Reached $3.50, 900 Bu.

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-THE bull campaign
in wheat was nlJrked today by another SEN
sational advance prices and heavy trads
Total transactions in futures aggregated
97S0,000 bushels The dealings were largely
among room traders and on professional
orders from the West, although there was un-
mistakable evidence of broadening outside
trade. Prices started up 115@2c above last
night, and during the session were elevated
a cent more. May showed the most strength,
touching S7%c. AS fast as one set Of trad
ers cold out their wheat new set would
take their places, thus maintaining constant
demand, which prevented any burdensome
accumulation. Gables were exceedingly strong
and acted as the handspring Of the advance.
Today upward of 100000 bushels were taken
by foreign houses. The corn and oats mar-
kets were both stimulated to unusual actfv-
ity by the jump in wheat, and showed good
advances

Now take the situation as seen
through party spectac1es.
So
Taking the most conservative esti-
mates of Ramsey county Democrats
and Republicans, there's a difference
of 5000 votes between them. Mckinley,
say the Reublicans, will carry the
county by at least 1000; Bryan. say
the Democrats will have certainly 1000
votes to the good. Pertisans Of both
parties will present good arguments
and any amount of confidence to back
up their claims. Some Republicans in
sist, even, that McKinley's majority
will be 10000, 80 enthusiastic are they.
The first day of registration indi-
Gates an unusual degree Of interest
Republicans claim this increased in
terest comes from the friends of their
candidate, and that it presages a tre-
mendous vote for him. Further, they
argue that Ramsey county may now be
closed as safely Republican, and that
heavy vote means an increased Re-
publican majority. In the last two
elections the county was carried by the
Republicans, and it is argued a large
detection of sound money Democrats
Will join the ranks of Mckinley this
year. No figures are given, but 1t IS
claimed that the leading Democrats OF
the party, professional and business
men, have deserted the free silver
standard and will this fall vote straight
the Republican ticket. Labor's vote Is
also claimed. The campaign managers
assert that laboring men are almost
solid for sound money, and deny there
has been any serious breach in their
party ranks by deserters to free silver

Two years ago the Republican can
didates were victorious by large fig
ures with Democratic and Populist
candidates in the field. 1t is admitted
that the accessions to Populist ranks
has been almost entirely from the
Democratic party. Two years ego
there were several factions OF the Dem
ocrats and many tay-at-honne voters
This year the Republicans are arrayed
against the combined vote Of Demo-
