BUTLER HAS A SAY.
Situation as Sized Up by the POpu-
list Leader.

AASt ACa0CEs
WASHINGTON, Oct 31.-Chairman
Butler, of the Populist national COM
mittee, tonight issued the following
statement:
The election of Bryan is an absolute GER
tainty. Bryan has absolutely certain 25S
electoral votes. and his popular majority will
be larger than the electoral majority. 1t will
be at least two millions which is about the
size of the Populist vote. The arrangements
perfected and the lining up of voters, both
Populist and Democratic, are far beyond our
expectations, due more to the intense interest
of the people in the fight than to the diplom-
acy of committees who, however did all they
could.
The result now achieved is wonderful, in
view of the difficulties confronting us. Our
party came in the West from the Republican
party, in the South from the Democratic
party, and to some extent the old party
prejudices still exist. To line up this vote
solidly for candidate extremely difficult,
and, though the Democratic committee met us
half way, yet in many states local managers,
unappreciative Of conditions added to the
difficulty, and two vice presidential candidates
caused great embarrassment and the campaign
would have been simplifed II Sewall had seen
his way clear to withdraw, but, failing this,
we had to organize joint electoral tickets all
around. The party, as well as Watson, were
disappointed in not having one ticket but 1t
would be SANDER on him to say he would
consequently keep Bryan from getting votes
and he will make no further fight.
The free silver Republican vote that will
go to Bryan will be much larger than Nc
Kinley's gold standard Democratic vote. The
two millions of Populist. votes will be prac-
tically solid for Bryan There is a much
larger percentage of the labor vote, both
organized and unorganized, for Bryan than has
ever been cast for a Democratic president
and the Peoples partys strength, even were
the free silver Republican and labor vote alb
sent, could elect Bryan. Chicago is doubt
full, but we will get 10000 majority in the
country districts to overcome that Bryan
does not have to get Illinois, and he could
lose all of the middle Western states, except
Indiana OF Michigan or Minnesota (Which are
certain) and be elected. The Republicans will
come nearer to getting Wyoming than any
other state west of Iowa

are equally sanguine, but place Bryan's
majority in the state at 5000. In Doug
las county, the fight has been vigorous.
From the first it has been the impress
sion that decisive majority for the
Republican ticket In this county was
essential. To bring this about the Re-
publican managers have for the past
three months carried the fight into
every precinct, and it is con-
coded that they have completed
the most effective political organization
ever known in Douglas county. The
result has been successful beyond all
hopes an6sthey now promise that this
county wihS re a Republican majori Y
of from 3,0OcNtd 5000. These are e
figures on which Chairman Lewis. of
the county central committee, is will
ing to risk his reputation as a political
forecaster and they are supported by
the polls in the hands of the commit
tees.
The Democrats have made an equally
vigorous fight in Omaha and claim the
county by 1000. The organization has
been thorough and the work hard.

old not arrive during the day, and conse-
quently none of his money was covered.
New York, Oct 31.-There was a
good deal Of betting at the Fifth
Avenue Hotel tonight, but the BRYAN
men demanded odds Of from four to
to $1,000 on Mckinley carrying the
country; $4,000 to $4OO the same way.

Washington. Oct. 31-The betting in
Washington has been unusually light
for presidential election. Probably
less than $4,000 is In the hands Of
shareholders. The ruling odds on the
general result have been three to one
on Mckinley, but some bets have been
laid as high as four to one and as low
as two to one. Two bets of $4,000 to
$1,000 were made today. The liveliest
betting Is on states. combination of

company is entitled under the recent decision

sion that the grant did not extend beyond

DIES MONIES, To-, Oct 31.-The
campaign in Central Iowa closed to-
night with a demonstration in Des
Moines under the gold standard nom
partisan association. 1t is estimated
more than 5000 men were in line. The
silver men closed their campaign with
a parade on Wednesday. Chairman
Curry. Of the Democratic state COM
mittee, through Secretary Carr has
issued a claim that the state will give
Bryan 10000 plurality. The claim is
based on letters from the different
county chairmen.
Chairman Mcmillan. of the Republi-
can state committee, estimates that
Mckinley will have at least Is, 900 plur-
ality. This estimate is based on a
poll of the state. The later counties
to report have strengthened rather
than weakened the estimates, Mr. Nc
MILAN says. and he will not be sur
prised if the plurality will go much
above the first estimate. In Des
Moines it is believed by the Republi-
cans that the vote will be at least three
to one for the Ohio candidate

TWO CONTESTED STATES.
Situation in Missouri and North
Carolina Sized Up.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 31.-It is generally
conceded that the state. outside Of st
Louis, will be carried by the free sill
yer Democrats. The Republicans have
laid siege to st. Louis and are hoping
to carry it by a sufficient majority to
overcome the state at large. The Dem
Ccratic leaders do not concede that ST.
Louis will be carried by the RepupH-
cans, though the latter have set their
claims at 10000 plurality. On the other
hand, the Democrats claim they will
come to St. Louis limits with $4,000 to
10000 plurality,
Raleigh, N. c., Oct 31.-There seems.
in spite of fugitive threats of scratch
ing as to the Bryan fusion ticket, to b.
a general acquiesence among the best
informed of both lPopulists and Demo-
Gratis that Bryan VIII carry the state
by 10000. The Republicans claim the
state for Mckinley by 10000 The DEM
ocrats claim Watson'st election by 49,
GOO and the Republicans Russell's by
from 10000 to 10000.

CLOSE IN DELAWARE.
mckinley VIII Probably Win by a
Small Majority.

WILMINGTON, Del. Oct. 31,-The
political situation in Delaware ia full
OF uncertainty, owing to the fight in the
republican ranks, the detection of the
gold standard Democrats and the cam
palgn of the single takers. Both the
degular Republican and the Union (Ad-
dicksl Republicans are united on pres
1oentlal electors, the regulars having
accepted the union electors. From the
best information obtainable tonight 1t
would appear that Mckinley will have
1000 majority. Much depends upon the
control Of the floating vote of 1000 in
the lower counties. The gold standard
Democratic vote in the state is esti-
mated at 700 and the single tax vote at
about 1000. The election Of the Demo-
cratic candidates for governor and
congressman and Democratic legis-
lature Is practically conceded by the
opposition

POLITICAL BANDITS.
Sound Money Train Held Up i'm Mis-
souri,,

ST. JOSEPH, Mo, Oct.-One of the
special trains travelling through the
West distributing gold standard litera-
tUre was captured by the silverites here
at noon today. When the train
stopped fully 500 men surrounded 1t,
and but little opportunity was given
the speakers on the train to address
the crowd or distribute literature.
Both sides to the controversy grew
angry,and trouble was threatened when
the visitors referred to Missouri as
''the home of Jesse James, No at
tempt was made to deliver addresses.
and after short stay the train pulled
out for Council Bluffs. The CITY is
crowded with silver men, who are here
to attend the final rally of the cam
paign, and this fact probably led to
the large crowd at the station.

TRENTON, n. j., Oct. 31.-The cam

a close tonight. The Republicans are
confident of carrying the state and
say that the majority for Mckinley and
Hobart in New Jersey will be in the
neighborhood of 40, 900. The Democrats
do not admit this and claim that when
the returns are counted it will be found
that Bryan and Sewall have received a
majority of about 1000 over the Repub-
lican candidates. The Republicans are
confident of controlling and they say
they will elect majority of the SEN

LOUISVILLE, Oct. 31.-Chairman
Sam j. Roberts, of the Republican

ton that Kentucky is safe for McKin-
ley by from $1,000 to $4,000. He bases
this estimate, not only upon his own
poll of the state, which, he says, was
most careful, but upon the figures
given out by the Democratic cam

cans will elect seven of the eleven con-
gressmen-counting Breckenridge in
the Seventh district, who is on the
ballot under the Republican device
and have a good show for a solid dele
cation. Campaign Chairman Som
