WHAT LORRIN 4. COOKE SAYS
 ABOUT THE ELECTION.

Surprise Confessed at the Great Size of the Republican Majorities in the State and Nation-says That Free Silver Has Had Its Judgment Day-what Lieut.. Gov. Deweii says-Mr. Troup's Defence.
 Barlehamsted, Nov. 4.-Lieutenant Governor Lorrin A. Cooke, who was yesterday elected by the republicans governor of Connecticut, told 0 repre- sentative of the Connecticut Associated Press, this morning, that the only sur prising thing about the election, both state and national, was the size of the majorities.
 The majority of 50,OOO in Connecti- cut he considered wonderful.
 When asked what effect the election would have on business MT, Cooke said he believed 1t would restore confidence and thus tend to improve business im- mediately.
 With the election of sound money congress" he said, prosperity will return and become permanent. Free silver has had its judgment day"

Election Exerted Favorable Influence on
 Securities Here and Abroad.
 New York, Nov. 1.-The decisive yic- eiy gained yesterday by the advocates
 { sound money exerted a highly fa
 orable influence on American securi- ties, both at home and abroad Early cables from London reported a sharp advance in Americans all along the line. The feeling there was described as more confident than for a long time and the rise in prices was partly at- tributed to the purchase of 75,oOO shares for American account.
 Local concerns who had the foresight to keep open last night, a new depart- ure, by the way, controlled this busi- ness The opening dealings here were attended with great excitement Com mission houses reported perfect flood of orders, and operators who have been holding off pending the settlement of the presidential contest were also eager buyers.
 Stubborn bears covered, especially in the industrials, and the floor of the stock exchange presented a lively ap- pearance. Contributing causes to the buoyancy were @ break of 1 cent in the posted rates of sterling exchange. to $4S11a @$4S5; a decline in call loans to 31s per cent. per annum, due to the of fering of over two and a half million dollars by leading private bankers; an increased inquiry for commercial pa- per; the disappearance of the premium on gold and an advance in the United States 4 per cent. bonds of 1925 of near ly per cent, to 1908. A belief that the gold recently hoarded by timid cap- italists will soon be released now that the premium has been wiped out was not without its influence.
 When it is recalled that nearly fifty millions of the gold imported since Au- gust 2S last cannot be accounted for, the importance of the impending change in monetary conditions can readily be understood
 The improvement at the opening ranged from F to GA per cent. Sugar rose 634. to 125; Lake Erie and West ern preferred 61s, to 721s; Wheeling and Lake Erie preferred 5s4, to 35; Jersey Central ,, to 110; United States Express }, to 4J; Tennessee Coal 47s, to g; Brooklyn Union Gas 42t, to 94; Consol- idated Gas 4&. to 154sl; Mobile and Ohio 4lA, to 22la; Pullman 1. to 160; Bay State Gas 1. to 225s; Minnesota Iron 4 to 65: St. Paul 1. to St; St. Paul prefer red 4, to 12s; Metropolitan Traction 4 to 1O5i Lake Shore SA, to 155, and the

Says 1t Was a Case of Deception.

Tn the Union of last evening, MT Trcup issues card as follows:
 To whom it may concern:
 The inquiry has been made this fore noon-to me personally score of times. as to whether I was deceived into making the statement I did be- fore election, or whether they were made for political effect, having re- ceived instructions from national dem- ocratic headquarters to misrepresent the condition of the east for the effect it would have on the west, etc. l de- sire to state that every statement I made was an honest one. They were based on estimates furnished me. The republicans could not understand them, and frankly said that these people were either lying to them or they were lying to me. The result showed that they lied to me While the democrats who favored the single gold standard left the Democratic rarty and voted for Mckinley, almost all the republicans who said they favored the bimetallic standard and worked their jaws and hurrahed for Bryan, also voted for Me- Kinley-for proof thereof look at the returns from the Ninth ward. I dealt honest with the people. I was never more in earnest in my life. I put LID the best fight was able to. The peo- pie have overwhelmingly decided against the policy I believed in, and while yielding obedience 10 the majori- ty and adjusting myself to the policy favored by the great majority of my fellow countrymen. I am still believer in the double sts ndard (bifnetallism), and feel that there can be no lasting prosperity to the American people until we restore silver to the place 1t occu- pied in the country before it was de- monetized in 1873, The statements made by me prior to election were not made for political effect; they were made on what I was led to believe, that former republicans, not by the hundreds, but by the thousands, favor- ed the principles of the democratic platform and would vote for the demo- cratic candidates Tn plain Anglo-Sax- on-they voluntarily lied.

LIEUT.. COY. DEwELL.s YIEWs.


Says Free Silver is SqueIched for Four
 Years.
 Hon. James D. Dewell of this city, who was elected by the republicans for lieutenant governor, was highly grati- fled at the result of the election. When seen yesterday morning he was reading the morning papers and was very en- thusiastic over the result. He said:
 Tt is evident there is a good deal of common sense left in the people of the United States. They know what they want and they don't want to have a lot of cranks running the govern ment."
 He was asked whether free silver in his opinion had been so completely buried out of sight that 1t would never again be resurrected and he replied You can never completely bury such thing; it will always crop out again, but I think it is thoroughly squelched for the next four years, and believe the country will become so prosper ous under gold and protection that four years from now, when free silver will again be before the people, it will have no chance whatever to succeed.
 Those more prosperous citizens who have by frugality secured a snug sum do not want to divide it with tramps The free silver men are in most in- stances the poorer business men who have not made a success in life and who, seeing their neig'hbors with cof- fers filled, become jealous and want to take 1t away from them. They are few in number.

provement; but if they attempt to force a high protective tariff upon the people the opposite will obtain.
 Tt was the business men who car ried the day Tuesday" MT Sperry said. They saw danger ahead and 1t was there, and they rallied to the support of the nation and business"
 This country must go out of the banking business, MT. Sperry contin- ued, adding that great quantities of gold had been hoarded, He cited seV- eral instances which had come under his personal observation and believed that now this gold would come back into circulation, causing an easier money market and improving business accordingly.
