McKinIey's Chances shaISy.
London, Oct. 29-The Times, in an arti-
Gle on the presidential campaign in the
United States. says: IF Senate" Jones
and Daniel j. Campau, respectively
chairman of the democratic national COM
mittee and the national campaign COM
mittee, and other democratic magnates
are correct in their figures, 1t Is conclu-
sive that Mr.. Bryan will be elected. Mr..
Campau estimates that 292 Bryan cleo
toral votes will be cast by thirty-three
states, including Indiana, Michigan, Illi-
nois, Iowa and Minnesota, all of which
the republicans think are safe. IL. there-
fore the state of New York persist in
the belief that Mckinley win be elected,
it is not for the want of warning. If the
east is blind, 1t is willfully blind. A
shrewd observer In Chicago thinks that
the prevalent Bryan demonstrations
mean Bryan votes.''
Moreton Frewen, the English economist
and bimetallist, who is now in America,
writes to the Times that he has seen and
heard all of the leading men on both
sides, and finds that throughout Illinois,
Indiana and Michigan, the republican
farmers are working heart and soul for
Bryan. Mr.. Frewen writes that he is con-
vinced that Mr.. Bryan will also carry all
of the southern states, with the possible
exceptions of Maryland and Delaware,
and all of the far western states except
Oregon and Wyoming.
