Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts

The Only States Conceded to Mckinley oy
Mr.. Elliot Danforth.

New York, Oct 1S.-Chairman Elliot
Danforth of the Democratic state COM
mittee when asked his opinion about
Senator Quay's estimate. said. this
afternoon: Bryan will get 2u cleo
toral votes. He is sure of election.
The battle ground. as | have said be-
fore. is in the middle West. My. ad-
vices from Wisconsin say that Bryan
will carry that state. The gold sehu-
ment in Chicago has diminished very
much within the last two weeks ana
Bryan is gaining there all the time.
THE only states we concede Mckin-
lev are Connecticut, Maine, Massachu-
sets. Rhode Island and Vermont. or
course we admit that Mckinley has
fighting chance in the other states.
There will be changes of sentiment In
many localities before election day,
which Bryan will get the advantage OF
and which will swell his electoral vote,
Chairman Danforth stated that the
reports from New York state continued
very favorable.
