are sure of carrying the State by ma
jority of from $4,000 to 10000. They
claim fourteen ont of twenty-one Con
gressmen, Il majority of the lower house
in the State legislature, and say that with
the aid Of the populistS to be elected
they will elect II silver man to be the sue
cessor of Senator John NJ. Palmer The
claims of the Republicans are more ex
tensive and with two or three exceptions
they claim every one of the Congressman,
all Of the State ticket and the electoral
vote for Mckinley by anywhere from So
600 to 100000. They say that they are
absolutely sure of the result on the State

State which they have been conducting
has been so thorough and so exact that
there is little chance of any estimate
made upon it being far out of the way.

Nashville, Nov. 2.-The Democratic
committee adhercs to its figures hereto
fore given ont, while the Republican
committee is equally positive that Me-
Kinley for President and T'illman for
governor will carry the State. Conscrya-
tive judges concede the State to Bryan by
1900 to 10000 and seven Democratic
Congressman certain, with possible
eight The Populst vote is the doubtful
element now. Both Populist electors at
large have resigned, four district electors
have resigned and the organization as a
factor in the Presidential race has gone
to pieces. How the Populist vote will
divide cannot he predicted with any de.
gree of certainty and the committee in
charge of the campaign will say nothing,
though the resigning populi.t electors
charge in published statements that the
committee is trying to deliver Populist
votes to the Republicans. The BRYAN
and Watson electoral ticket has virtually
gone to pieces, and from the best informa-
ton ohtainable il is Judged by careful in
vcstigators that the bulk of the party
will vote for Bryan, some not at ali. ana

Rumored That Councilmanic Votes VIII
be Traded for Mckinley Votes.

Baltimore, Nov "a rumor is in cir.
culation tonight to the effect that the
Republican candidates for city Offices
have entered into an agreement with the
Democrats to trade Mckinley votes for
councilmanic votes. The rJlmor is suili-
GENTLY definite to cause considerable un-
easiness in Republican ranks, rs most of
Mckinley's vote will come from the city,
even the most sanguinc among the anti
BrYanites admitting that outside of Bal
timore city the result is at least doubt
full. Senator. elect Wellington, chairman
of the State committee, however, vigor-
ously denies that there is any truth in it.
The chairmen of both State committees
adhere to their previous estimates and
there is nothing to the surface to show
which of them is right

The Election Returns VIII he Late Com

Chicago, Nov. 2-The public must be
prepared for II later service on to-mor-
rows election than usual 1t will be
borne in mind that hitherto III prcsiden-
tial elections New York has been a pivot
ical State and that the polls closed there
ut 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the tele-
graph facilities were of the highest order
and the difference in time between that
city and the West enabled the Associated
Press to practically determine the result
of the election before midnight. This
year interest will center chiefly in States
west of the Alleghanies and particularly
in States west of tile Mississippi. Much
advantage of time is lost. AS a rule the
polls will close at II later hour, and the
telegraph facilities are comparatively
limited. In the State of Illinois there is
provision for amending the State con-
stituton and in Chicago another for the
issue of local bonds, both of which under
the law must be counted first and this
will necessarily involve some delay. 1t
is needless TO say that every e fort Will he
made to prosecute the work as rapidly as
possible. but the limitations above.indi-
Gated exist and it is rs we'll that they
should be understood
In computing returns for tomorrow :
election comparisons for gains and losses
will be made with the Presidential cleo
ton of 1892.
