Chairman Bynum Says His Wing of tho
Party VIII Await Developments.
CHICAGO, Nov. 6.-Chairman W. d.
Bynum, Of the national committee OF
the gold standard democracy, made the
following statement:
1t is too early for the sound money demo-
Gratis 10 decide upon q course of action for the
future. We shall have to await developments
While the policy OF the government, so far as
the standard is involved. has been settled, the
details of a sound financial system yet remain
to be accomplished. The present defenseless
condition of the treasury must be remedied
before we can hope for lasting prosperity, and
changes will be necessary.
A reunion OF the forces OF the democratic
party can only be had on the platform Of the
indianapolis convention: the Chicago platform
was a radical departure from the cherished
principles Of the party and those who continue
to adhere to 1t will find themselves swallowed
up by the populists. am sure our efforts have
materially contributed to the result No one
will question but that our speakers were u

JONES coNcsDEs IT.
The National Democratic Chairman says
Mckinley Is Elected.


CHICAGO, Nov. 6.-Maj. Mckinley
will have not less than PCS votes in the
electoral college. This is not counting
the i3 electoral votes of Kentucky, in
which state the result is so close that
either side NAV win. Neither does IL
include two of the electoral votes of
Wyoming, which are in doubt, the
third one being conceded to the repub-
licans 1t is possible that McKinley's
electoral vote also be augmented by
the vote of Tennessee. which was be-
ing claimed by republicans last night.
Chairman Jones last night conceded
the election of Mckinley and Hobart,
sending a telegram to that effect to
Mr.. Bryan, whereupon Mr.. Bryan
sent a congratulatory telegram to Maj.
Mckinley. Chairman Jones gave out
the following statement last night:
The result OF the presidential election is ap-
parently no longer in doubt II has been one
OF the closest contests tERt the people have
been called upon to determine in recent years
We have claimed the election on our advices
from states that we're admitted in DOUBT, in
which we knew there had been many frauds,
and from which there were evidences Of tam
pering with the returns. 1t seems now to be
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 assure his success in the electoral
college. Bryan electors have been chosen
from all the states south Of the Potomac and
Ohio except West Virginia and all those west
Of the Missouri except California and Oregon.
He has iq) electoral votes. and this number
may be increased by hnal returns from states
yet in question He has not obtained enough
to carry the electoral college.
Thus this remarkable campaign closes with
the election OF william Mckinley. The result
was brought about by every kind OF coercion
and intimidation on the part OF the money
power. including threats OF lock-outs and dis
missals and impending starvation; by the em-
ployment OF by far the largest campaign fund
ever used in this country and by the subordi-
nation OF large portion Of the American press
The president-elect aEd his party are under
the pledge to the American people to continue
the gold standard and by its operation TO re-
store prosperity to this country. As chief ex-
ecutive, Mr. Mckinley will have the cordial
support Of the millions Of patriotic Americans
who have cast their votes for william Jen-
nings Bryan. They bow to the majesty OF the
ONCE and abide by the result with
none OF the mutteriugs that would
have come from the money power
had it been unsuccessful They are
confident the gold standard cannot give the
promised prosperity, but will gladly welcome
IL IL 1t comes. They will continue the great
struggle for the uplifting of humanity and the
maintenance OF tie dignity Of our country in
the establishment OF the American monetary
system And the democratic party, aided by
its present allies will still uplit the bime tallio
standard and bear it on to victory.

In Receivers Hands.
LEAvESwoRrH, Kan, Nov. g 6-County
Attorney II. T. Phinney. of jefferson
county, in the name of the state of
Kansas, yesterday brought suit in the
Leavenworth district court to compel
the Santa Fe Railroad Co TO dispose of
it's real estate in Kansas. Judge My
ers appointed Charles +. johnson, of
Oskaloosa. receiver. The receiver Is
placed in control of all the company's
property except the rolling stock,
the order including right.of-way, tele-
graph lines, epots. roundhouses, shops
and all other property that is staked
to the ground. The bond of the re-
receiver was fixed at $4,000. The re-
ceiver was ordered to enter into an
agreement with the officials of the rail-
road company to operate its line with
in five days, and If, at the expiration
of that time, the company had failed
to enter into such an agreement, the
receiver was ordered TO take charge of
the rolling stock and operate the line.
The suit was brought under the
alien land law of Kansas. which pre-
vents companies. where 90 per cent or
more of their stock is held by aliens,
from holding land in Kansas 1t is
estimated that the company owns S20,-
900, 900 worth of property in Kansas.
The suit covers the entire main line,
which owns all the real estate. 1t is
claimed that the suit is the outgrowth
of an old fight of long standing among
the stockholders of the Santa Fe, and
that it was instigated at the instance
of Henry Clews. the New York banker.
and Newman Erb, the well-known rail-
road man.
General Solicitor A. A. Hurd, of the
Santa Fe in Kansas, refused to talk
about the case last night He had
heard indirectly that the receiver had
been appointed, but said no papers had
yet been served on the officials at To-
peka. 1t is understood that the COM
pany's first move will be to ask that
the case be transferred to the United
States cOurt
