The San Francisco call., 1896-11-02

CANTON, OHIO, Nov. IA delegation
of over 100 voters from Detroit arrived in
Canton this morning to pay their respects
to Major Mckinley. The delegation had
intended TO reach here on Saturday, but
were delayed by bad railroad connections.
They attended services at the First Me tn
odist Episcopal Church in a body and in
the afternoon the members of the Detroit
party called in small groups upon Major
Mckinley at his residence. There were
no formal addresses and the visitors lett
quietly for their homes this evening.
Major Mckinley, in company with Mrs.
Thomas McDougal and John W. Warren
ton of Cincinnati, were also present at the
morning services at the First Methodist
Episcopal Church.
Major Mckinley is confident tonight
The expectation of victory proves won
derful tonic and restorative. The last
week of the campaign was in some ways
the hardest of his many weeks of arduous
work. Delegations were not so large, as
rule, but they were very numerous and
the number of people who strenuousIy in
ssisted on personal interviews with the
Republican candidate was greater than
ever.
Then, too Major Mckinley found addi-
tional cause for anxiety in the illness of
Mrs. Mckinley, who for the last five days
has been confined to her bed with severe
cold. To-day. however, Mrs. Mckinley
was much i'm proved and was able to sit up
for time Tonight Major Mckinley is
in the best of spirits and seems to be
thoroughly rested. He said ne could
scarcely realize that The fight was over
hot ha DO II.
Chauncey NJ. Depew said when he was
here that, after seeing the crowds at Can
ton and feeling the excitement with which
the air is charged, he was confident he
could not stand the life here longer than
week if he had to do half OF what Nc
Kinley has been doing daily since his
nomination.
Major Mckinley said this evening: "I
expect to make the last speech of the cam
paign to my fellow-townsmen on Monday
night. 1t has been my practice for many
years to speak in Canton the night before
the election
The people of Canton will call in body
Monday evening and Major Mckinley viii
address them from the stand in his front
yard.
A great volume of cheering news has
been pouring in upon Major Mckinley all
day. He has received final and reassuring
reports from West Virginia, Mary land,
Kentucky, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota,
Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas. North Dakota,
South Dakota, California. Oregon, Wash
ington and Missouri The news from all
OF these States was thoroughly satisfac-
tory with the exception OF two. There is
some doubt expressed about Kansas and
Missouri, but in the event of general
landslide Major McKlnley's friends here
say he will carry both of them.
Major Mckinley has been requested to
press the button which shall set in motion
the machinery of the Tonawanda Iron
and Steel Works on Thursday next, and
will probably do so.

PARIS, FRANCE, Nov. 1.-The Seine has
been rising for some days and has now
reached point that is causing much
alarm. Low-lying structures along its
banks have been flooded and much dam
age has been done above and below. The
river is so full of floating debris that traf-
fc upon it has been stopped. Most of the
other rivers of France are also out of their
banks.
Many of the villages along the Rhone
are com pletelv surrounded by water. At
Vallabreques. near Tarascon, the inhab-
itants have been driven from their homes
bv the rising waters ana are camping in
the cemetery, which is situated on high
ground.
Near Mines, department of Gard, and
Bourg, in the department of Ain, num-
Der of bridges have been swept away.
Families living on the low ground near
the Rhone have taken refuge in the upper
stories OF their houses. the lower portions
being inundated. The district northeast
of Mines has suffered extensively.
The Bishop of Mines is rendering what
assistance he can to the distressed vii
layers. The inundations are so extensive
that the postmen have to use boats to per-
form their labors.
The plain of Roquemaure is an immense
lake. The water is so deep that only the
tops of the trees are visible. The roads
northwest of Bourge are impossible. The
inhabitants are terrified, as the food gives
promise of increasing. The islets of Plot
and Barthslaise in the Rhone, near Avig-
non. capital of the department OF Vaucluse,
are completely submerged. The inunda-
tion is causing much distress, and the
property loss will be heavy.

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Nov. L--Cnair-
man Gowdy of the Republican State Com
mittee this afternoon furnished the follow
ing signed statement:
The campaign of 1896 will be recorded as
one Of the greatest contests in the history of
Indiana politics Tuesday the voters will
settle by ballot the issue upon which this
campaign has been made. The people OF In
diana realize that the country is threatened
with crisis which can be ayerted only by the
defeat Of the free silver Democratic party
And with an abiding faith in the intelligence
and patriotism of the people we are con fdent
that the result will be one of the most decisive
victories in favor of the Republicans ever
given to any party in the State.
A conservative estimate of the situation at
this time shows that Indiana will give Re-
publican plurality OF not less than $4,000.
and If, as We have reason to believe, large
percentage of the silent vote is cast for the Re-
publican ticket the plurality may reach
10000
The Republican organization in Indiana is
so compact and perfect in every detail that
we do not believe that an attempt by the ad-
vocates of free silver by corruption or other
methods can effect any material change in the
situation.
The Republicans will elect all OF the Is Con-
gressmen, 81 members of the lower house OF
the generally sembly and 16 out of the 25
Senators to elect. With the I9 Republican
hold-over Republican Senators this will give
us 80 in the Senate, a majority of 90 The Re-
publicans will have majority of % in the
House, giving us a majority on joint ballot of
AZ. This will insure the election of a Repub-
lican to the United States Senate to succeed

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 1.-senator
Quay came down to Washington to-day
fora few hours, leaving in the evening for
his home at Beaver, Pa, where he intends
to vote.
How much money have you bet on
McKinley2" 1t was Senator Quay who
put the question. He had just been sa-
luted by an intimate friend. The latter
replied: Nothing"
'tNothing9' Quay coming as near to an
exclamation as be ever does, responded |:
"And why not2''
Bryan man wants too big odds,' said
the friend.
"Well," quoted Quay, ''snd pray what
does 1t matter how much odds you give
when you are betting on sure thing?"
The friend then admitted that he vas
out of money anyhow; whereat the SEN
ator smiled in sympathy, as one who feels
for friend who has missed the opportu-
nifty of his life. Then he added: why,
that's too bad It's all settled, you know.
There is not the slightest doubt about ii.
mckinley is as good as elected. Nothing
can prevent it"
1.-The Middle West" began the friend,
but Quay caught him up with: THE
Middle West are sure; our friends in
charge out there are hilarious. What are
the Popcrats claiming here?''
We'll, said the friend, "they scoff at
the talk of Mckinley getting Kentucky
and"
You don't mean to say that the Pops
honestly think that they are going to
carry Kentucky for Bryan?"
And when the friend nodded the Sen.
ator smothered smile with his hand.

CHICAGO, I'LL, Nov. 1.-The National
headquarters of both parties were almost
deserted to-day. There was no business
of importance to transact. Members of
the cam paign com mmittees and heads of
departments had either gone home to
vote or were preparing to leave the head
quarters until after the decisive day, and
were at their desks for short time only
in the afternoon, while few visitors from
outside Chicago strayed in to tell political
news or to be informed before going to
their homes to vote.
Chairman Hanna will remain at his post
here until tomorrow evening, when he
will depart for Cleveland and receive the
returns there. Wednesday he proposes to
visit Major Mckinley and then go TO New
York, TO return here early next week and
wind up the strictly business affairs. Each
of the several hundred employees called to
bid him good-by last night, and to each of
them Mr.. Hanna presented his portrait
and autograph. Mr.. Hanna has made a
popular campaign chairman.
Executive Committeeman Durbin left
yesterday for Indianapolis to examine the
Indiana situation with the State Com mmit-
tee and then go to Anderson to vote.
Chief Hahn and his subordinates in the
speakers department left to-day for their
Ohio homes. Major Dick, secretary OF the
National Committee, departed to-day for
his home in Akron, Ohio. Committeeman
Payne will leave for Milwaukee to- m orrow

CHICAGO, ILL, Nov. bryan and
Mckinley forces met in West Madison
street last night. Four men were injured
and three arrested, two of the latter being
liberated when it appeared to the police
that they were neither instigators of the
riot nor active participants. The trouble
necessitated the calling of extra squads of
officers until whole company was de-
tailed within the two blocks bounded by
Desplaines and Halstead streets.
The injured are: Hugh Murray, Richard
Porter, E. j. Proctor and Robert Converse.
The trouble began at $50 o'clock. The
headquarters of the Eighteenth Ward
Silver Democrats and Republicans are
nearly opposite each other, ana the crowds
which hang about both places came
together three times before midnight.
CHICAGO, I'LL, Nov. 1.-The police
were called upon tonight to quell polit-
ical riot on the West Side. Fifteen or
twenty people were battered and bruised.
The hight took place in front of Repub-
lican meeting place at the corner of Union
and Madison streets. From a near by
Bryan hall came crowd of silver men,
who were marching.
When they arrived in front of the
Mckinley nall. it is alleged, they stopped
and commenced shouting for Bryan,
thereby interrupting the speakers inside
who were arguing for gold standard.
There was general exit from the hall
and the two crowds came together, and
the fight became so mixed that it is said
the com batants could not tell their friends
from their enemies, but were striking at
random. A riot call was sent in TO the
nearest police station, and twenty-five
policemen were sent to the scene. The
police soon restored order. No one was
seriously injured.

NEW YORK, N. Y, November 1.-The
campaign closed in this State last night.

perfunctory way. With Senator Hills
silence, William C. Whitney, an avowed
Mckinley man, and Ex-Governor Roswell
P. Flower and other leaders STUN ping
for Palmer and Buckner, 1t has been a
spiritless campaign.
The National Democrats have con.
Quoted warm campaign for Palmer and
Buckner and are confident of making a
showing at the polls which will Justify
them in continuing the organization for
future work.
The Prohibition and Socialist Labor
parties have made their usual quiet cam.
paigns. The Peoples party, after vain
efforts to obtain recognition on the Demo-
cratic electoral ticket, indorsed the Brvan
and Sewall electors and took down their
State ticket, with the exception of their
nominee for Judge of the Court of Ap-
peals.
The Republicans expect to carry the
State for Mckinley by from 100000 up
ward. They expect to elect Frank S..
Black Governor and to capture the Con-
gressional delegation of thirty-four with
possibly two exceptions. They count
upon electing 100 out of the loo mem bers
of the State Legislature, thus insuring the
election of Republican to succeed David
B. Hill in the United States Senate.
Chairman Danforth of the Democratic
State Com mittea SAWS hs is con fidant of
carrying the State for Bryan by &C, 600.
He looks for Democratic plurality in this
city of 10000. The betting, however, is
the other way. The registration is con-
sderably in excess of all former years and
the heaviest vote on record will probably
be polIed.

did not qualify the vote. That was done
by the regular Republicans, who are in
