ENDEAyOR BIKE PARADE.
IL Draws n Big Crowd-Indiscrimi-

WASHINGTON. d. c., July Ia
The Christian Endeavor bicycle parade,
which was Up and down Pennsylvania

on that thoroughfare of the past ten
days. 1t was decidedly grotesque pro-
cesslon Of wheelmen and women. white
and colored, in all sorts of costumes. and
with every kind of decoration and IL
Elimination each one could carry. There
were probably 1000 in line, but the
people took entire possession of the street
from sidewalk to sidewalk, and repeat
edly broke the column of 'cyclers
which was headed by a platoon of mount
ed police.
The management of the parade was de-
cidedly bad and the police were unable
TO control the people. who had all the
fun they wanted out of the novel pro-
cession. fortunately. there were no Sc
rious accidents, though the falls, col
lisions. and tangles Of bicyclers were
numerous and laughable. AT II o'clock
the streets were almost impossible, and
the cars will be packed for hours carry
ing the people home.

M'KINLEY THANKS THEM.
HE AND HA MA SAY THE PALMER
MEN DID 1T.
His Language Would Seem to In
dicate the Death of the
Force Bill.

Canton, Ohio, Nov. ga representative
of the Associated Press called on Me-
kinney and found him in his library chat
ting with number of friends who were
all feeling in excellent spirits over the
election. He asked him How are you
feeling, Governor"
Quite well, thank you. had a good
nights rest last night"
"To what do you attribute Republican
success?'
oh / don't care to be interviewed, but
/ will say that | think the patriotic efforts
OF the men of both the old parties have
brought about the result"
President-elect Mckinley tonight sent
a dispatch to Mark Hanna, at New York,
thanking him and the Republican COM
mittee for their services and adding:
THE people in their majesty, ignoring
party lines, have declared their detesta-
ton Of reputation and dishonor, in what
ever specious guise they may be present
ed. They have, with the same mighty
power, affirmed their devotion to law and
order and their undertaking respect for
justice and the courts. They have main
tanned their unfaltering determination to
support and uphold the constituted au-
tholities Of the country.
The victory is not to party or section,
but of and for the whole American peo-
pie. :. Not the least of the triumphs OF
the election is the obliteration Of sectional
lines in the republic. We have demon
strated to the world that we are a re-
united people in purpose as in name. We
have manifested in the great cause the
spirit of fraternity and brotherhood that
should always characterize our common
and equal citizenship and have proven
conclusively that in a country of equal
privileges and equal opportunities, the
insidious doctrine of hate, or of class or
sectional distinctions cannot prevail. Let
us as Americans straightway devote our
selves to the upbuilding OF America.
Party dissensions should no longer divide
or rack the public mind; nor the zeal or
temper OF either side deter any citizen
from patriotic devotion to the good of all.
"WM. MKINLEY."

LINNEY's ELECTION CLAIMED.

Winston, n c., Nov. 5.-Oficial re-
turns from this (Eighth) Congressional
district have not been received 1t is
known, however, that Congressman Lin
ney, Republican, is reelected. His ma
jority will be 500 or 1000. He carried
Forsyth by one thousand, Wilkes by the
same Surry by $50. His opponent, Lieut.
Governor Doughton, Democrat, carries
Allegheny, Cleveland, Caldwell, Alex
ander, Watauga and Burke counties. His
majorities being small There was a
tie in Ashe. Bryan ran ahead of
Doughton and it is conceded that he has
carried the district by from five hun
dred to one thousand votes. A special
from Raleigh this afternoon says Rus
sell, Republican has defeated Watson,
Democrat, and that his majority will be
5000.

CALIFORNIA; PLURALITY.

San Francisco, Nov. 5.-With 225,7 ,775
votes counted Mckinley and Hobart have
about z 500 majority in California. While
the precincts yet to be heard from may
reduce these figures slightly, the Republi-
can majority will not be less than 5000,
giving the Bryan ticket the benft Of the
doubt wherever it seems reasonable. Com
gresham McLachlan has conceded the
Sixth district to Barlow, on the strength
of late returns. The Seventh district is
close, but Bowers will carry it. The ma
jority of Barham and Hilborn were in
creased by the count. The legislature
is strongly Republican.

Fellow Citizens.
CONGRATULATES M'kINLEY
Sent His Message Immediately
After Signal From Jones.
HOW HE RECEIVED THE NEWS
Will /. ter Send Out Formal Address
to the People, Meanwhile, RE Seem
ed Relieved That The Issue
Was Definitely Decided.

Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 5.-"The fight has
Just commenced" Thus spoke VIM. j.
Bryan tonight when asked if he con-
sidered that the result of the election had
been a serious blow to the cause of BIZ
metaiIism
He had just sent a message to Maj.
Kinley conceding his election and tender
ing his congratulations.
Mr.. Bryan surrendered at $50 O'Clock.
He had just received the signal and re-
sponded within the next ten minutes
with a telegram to his successful rival.
This signal was a brief message from
Senator Jones, chairman of the National
Democratic committee, informing him
that he did not consider it wise to longer
withhold the concession of Mckinley s
election. This message was received by
Mr.. Bryan a few minutes after he had
returned with his wife from an evening
stroll and i'll the presence of dozen cal
lers, gathered in the parlor and reading
room Of their unpretentous residence. The
receipt of the telegram created no scene
whatever, and one unacquainted with
the facts would never have suspected
from the surface indications the impor-
Ii,
actor in the drama had more than q
passing interest in it. He handed the
telegram to Mrs. Bryan, who was stand
ing near him, and without word, except
to explain the purport of the message,
sat down at his desk and penned the fol-
lowing telegram to Maj. Mckinley:
Senator Jones has just informed me
that the returns indicate your election,
and / hasten to extend my congratula-
tions. We have submitted theissue to the
American people and their will is law"
While writing the message and after
it was completed Mr.. Bryan chattetl
pleasantly with the newspaper cores
poadents who surrounded him, indicating
by his manner that he felt relieved to
have the matter definitely determined,
even though the result was against him.
He also showed very plainly that Sena-
tor J0nes's message was no surprise to
him, as ii indeed was not, for as those
who have been in his confidence knew,
he had considered the battle as practi-
cally lost ever since the first night after
the election. He has, however, felt that
it would be both discourteous and unwise
TO give out any intimation to this effect
until the national committee had spoken.
Mr. Bryan announced that he would to-
morrow issues an address, but he declined
to make any statement tonight or to
submit to an interview, further than to
say that the fight for silver had just
begun.

Result Elected by Coz rcion,
and intimidation.

Chicago, ILL.,, Nov. 5.-Chairman Jones
issued the following statement tonight:
The result of the Presidential election
is apparently no longer in doubt. 1t has
been one of the closes contests that the
people have been called on to determine
in recent years. We have claimed the
election on our advices from States that
were admittedly in doubt, in which we
knew there had been many frauds and
from which there were evidences of
tampering with the returns. 1t seems
now to be apparent that while Mr.. Bryan,
after making the most brilliant campaign
in the history of our country and having
carried most of the States claimed to be
doubtful, has not carried enough to as
sure his success in the electoral college.
Bryan electors have been chosen from
all of the States south of the Potomac
and Ohio, except West Virginia, and all
those west Of the Missouri, except Cali
fornia and Oregon. He has 1870 electoral
votes and this number may be increased
by final returns from states yet in ques
ton. He has not obtained enough votes
to carry the electoral college. Thus this
remarkable campaign closes with the
election of VIM. Mckinley. The result
was brought about by every kind Of CO.
ercion and intimidation on the part Of
the money power, including threats OF
lockouts and dismissals and impending
starvation; by the employment OF by far
the largest campaign fund ever used in
this country and by the subordination
of large portion Of the American press.
"The President-elect and his party are
under the pledge to the American people
to continue The gold standard and by it's
operation to restore prosperity to this
country. AS chief executive, Mckinley
viii have the cordial support Of the mill
lions of patriotic Americans who have
cast their votes for VIM. J. Bryan. They
bow to the majesty Of the Office and abide
by the result with none of the mutter-
ings that would have come from the
monied powers, had it been unsuccessful
'"They are confident the gold standard
cannot give the promised prosperity, but
will gladly welcome it if it comes. They
will continue the great struggle for the
uplifting Of humanity and the mainte-
nance of the dignity of our country in the
establishment Of the American monetary
system. And the Democratic party,
aided by its present allies, wilL still up
lift the bi-metallic standard and bear it
on to victory.

KENTUCKY PROBABLY BRYAN's

Louisville, Ky. Nov. Sat midnight the
result in Kentucky is more in doubt than
ever. The revision of figures in some dis
tricts has brought the majority for either
side down to a very small margin. Bry-
an has gained 4o4 votes in Galloway
county and 633 in Hardin county by the
discovery of errors in the county. Mr.
Kinley has gained 500 in the Tenth from
the same cause. The Democrats now
cleim the State for Bryan by 1,500 to
1000, while the Republican claim it for
Mckinley by 500.
The vote is so close that the official re-
turns will be necessary to determine the
result.

IOWA BY $1,000.

Des Moines, Iowa, Nov. 5.-The re-
turns by counties in Iowa were COM
pleted to-day. The total vote cast in the
State is in excess of $4,000 votes, esti-
mating the Prohibition and Palmer vote
at only 5000. OF these votes. 2S6.751
were cast for Mckinley, and 219,118 for
VIM. j. Bryan, giving Mckinley plu-
rality of 67,633. This is not only the
largest vote ever cast in the State, larger
than any previous vote by 10000; but it
is also the largest Republican majority
ever given in Iowa. Garfeld's majority
was $4,000.

OF the doubtful States, Kentucky IS
very close. Two counties are still to be-
heard from. Heretofore, one has gone
Republican and the other Democratic.
The Republicans claim the State for
Mckinley by 4S7, and the present indi-
cations are that it viii 60 in the Republi-
can column. North Carolina is slow in
returning the votes, and many counties
are missing. The present and estimates
returns would place the State in the

sin, -; Wyoming 1. Total, 265, which
insures their election by q majority of 81
in the electoral college, if every other
electoral vote goes against us.
Another most significant feature of
this victory lies in the fact that McKin-
ley and Hobart's election has been Sc
cured by a plurality of over 100000 Of
the popular vOte-the largest ever given.

New York, Nov. 5.-Mr. Hanna's at
tention was to-day called to the rise in
American securities abroad since election.
He regarded this as very good augury
and thought that he rise would be per-
manent one.
tDo you feel that the silver question
has been settled by this election? Mr..
Hanna was asked.
Il feel certain that it is the beginning
of the end" he replied. "The election
must result in the most serious considera-
ton of that question"
Mr. Hanna paid tribute to the Ma
tional Democrats.
'sThey were, he said, "a very important
factor in the election They worked just
as hard for the same results. There was
no break in the line anywhere and they
were loyal from the outset. The value
Of their services cannot be over-esti-
mated" f"
