REPUBLICAN UNEASINESS
In Maryland Caused by a Rumor G
Trading McKinley Votes.

Baltimore, Nd. Nov. "a rrImor is in
circulation tonight to the effect that the
republican candidates for city offices
have entered into an agreement with
the democrats to trade Mckinley votes
for aldermanic votes. The rum0r is
sufficiently definite to cause considerable
uncasiness in the republican ranks. as
most of McKinley's vote will come from
the city, even the most sanguine among
the anti-Bryanites admitting that out
side of the city the result is at least
doubtful.
Senator-elect Wellington, chairman of
the republican state committee, vigor-
ously denies that there is any ruth in
it, although he at the same time admits
that he is not going to his home in
Allegheny City tomorrow. This has
been tending to ruille the surface of the
political mill pond today. The chairmen
of both state committees adhere to their
previous estimates and there is nothing
on the surface to show which of them is
right.

CONFUSION IN NEBRASKA
Owing to the Arrangement of Tickets.
Both Sides Claim the State.

Omaha. Neb., Nov. 2.-It is conceded
that there will be much confusion in the
state among those desiring to vote Tor
Bryan, since his electors are designated
as democratic and peoples independent"
on the ticket.
The secretary of state decided that the
Palmer and Buckner organization was
the only recognized democratic party in
the state, and their electors go on the
ticket marked democrats. The silver
democrats are hopeful tonight and claim
heir polls give Bryan the state by at
east 5000, though admitting that the
eopulist vote will be cast largely for
Watson.
Republican leaders are confident that
Mckinley's plurality will run upwards
of 10000.
On the state ticket there is more con-
fusion. Governor Holcomb fusion can
didate, will receive many votes that
will also be cast for Mckinley electors
Democrats admit Holcomb's claim to
election is much better than Bryan's.
Republicans claim big vote for their
gubernatorial candidate, Jack MacColl.

NEW YORK.

Albany. \. Y, Nov. 2.-The campaign
in New York state has closed and the
battle of the ballots will determine the
claims, which differ to larger extent
than in any campaign since the candidacy
of Horace Greedy and hinges mainly OH
the vote for president in New York City.
The democratic leaders claim they will
win by plurality not to exceed 10000.
and the republicans assert that the very
smallness of this claim is evidence that the
democrats do not expect to really win.
A close canvass of the various counties
in the state, made through unbiased
sources, would seem to demonstrate Mt
this writing that there is prospect of
the republicans carrying nearly all the
counties north of the Harlem river. In
New York City alone 10000 voters last
year threw away their votes, and every
effort is being made to prevent n repeti-
ton.

LONDON FINANCES.

London, Nov. 1.-The rate of discount
has been steady, and the belief that the
strengency is only temporary prevents
Il further advance.
Mr.. McKinley's election, which is
thought here to be assured, is counted
upon to bring rciiuX of gold from Amer
lea. The Bank of England has borrowed
about 100000 pounds from the market.
There is some discomfort over the banks
charging II per cent in view of better
prospects. 1t is supposed that the direc-
tors anticipate an inflow of gold to Aus
tralia or Russia. The stock market has
been irregular and weak, owing to the
depression in the mining market and an
indisposition to increase commitments
pending the result of the election in the
United States The mining market is ira
versing period of depre ssion, especially
in South African ventures, owing to
forced selling. both English and foreign.
Doubts regarding the deep level proper
ties are largely responsible for this col
lapse. The settlement however, was
concluded in better manner than was
expected, although there was much sell
ing in order to liquidate weak positions.
1t is hoped that the elimination OF the
weak spots will lead to better market.
Gold fields, Rand mines, South African
gold mining, Transvaal gold and many
others show decrease of from l to 3
per cent. Another weak spot has been
foreign securities. Consols and British
railways were strong. with good buying of
the latter on the trade prospects. Ameri-
can securities fuctuated according to the
election news, but the close shows a
pretty general advance, mainly due TO
New York orders and option dealings.
The only decreases were: Erie mort
cages. 9 IA; Lake Shore, |; Mexican Cen

MUCH BITTERNESS
In Missouri and Trouble Is Predicted
at the Polls.

st. Louis. Nov. 2.-Never before, since
the war, has there been a campaign in
Missouri where there was as much bit
terness of feeling between the parties as
the one which closed tonight. Some of
the leaders of both parties predict
trouble at the polls tomorrow. Governor
Stone is in the city tonight and he de-
clares that the right of every citizen TO
any cost. He said he would not he sur.

Chairman Cook of the democratic
state committee says that Bryan will
carry. the state by 10000 majority over
Mckinley
r. s. Kcrens, republican national com
mitteeman, says the republicans will
carry the state by 10000 for Mckinley.
He figures that st: Louis will give Nc
kinley anywhere from 25.000 TO 10000
plurality and that he will carry the
state outside by 10000 to $1,000.

BYNUM'S STATEMENT.
Confident of Sound Money Succcss-The
Future of His Party.

Chicago, Nov. 2.-The Hon. William
ID. Bynum, chairman of the national
gold standard democracy, made the fol
lowing statement this afternoon:
Il have every confidence in the result
of the election tomorrow. / can not be-
lieve that the conservative forces which
have combined to save the country from
dishOnor can be defeated by the opposing
clements, however desperate they may be.
Our campaign has been almost wholly
confined to the doubtful or close states;
our principal work having been done in
Minnesota, Michigan, Indiana, Ken
lucky, Tennessee, West Virginia. Kan
sas and Nebraska. feel sure all
these states will declare for sound money
and if they do the result will be due
largely to the efforts Of sound money
democrats. Had not the sound money
democrats of the west and south come to
the rescue of the issue at the critical
moment, the result, to say the least,
would have been exceedingly doubtful.
The wisdom of our action has become
more evident each succeeding day. We
not only preserved the sound money senti-
ment in the democratic party, but
checked the break from the republican
to the free silver ranks. and have been
an important factor IN building up
healthy sentiment in both parties. 1t
was certainly peculiar situation that
required democratic speakers to take
the stump in behalf of true democratic
principles to influence republicans to vote
their own ticket. The action of the
sound money democracy has unques-
tionably had very liberalizing influence
on the leaders of the republican party
and will result in united effort to ac-
needed reform in our financial
system While the first requisite of a
sound financial system is that it must be
attached to a stable standard, never
theless il must be so framed to answer
the requirements of commerce and, there
fore, must possess elasticity. A sound
financial system is essential to the pres
ervation of our system of credit, because
without the latter we could not carry on
our trade for a single day. 1t is impos-
sible to conjecture at this time what |
course the sound money democrats will |
pursue after the election. The result of |
The election will have much influence in
shaping our movements in the future.
We shall probably have a meeting of the
executive committee at an early day for
he purpose of closing up business affairs
md no doubt the fortunes of the sound
money organization will then be con-
;idered."

INDIANA.

indianapolis, Ind, Nov. Both sides
tonight are resting on their arms after
the labor and excitement of the campaign,
waiting for the final struggle tomorrow,
which is to decide the result in Indiana.
Both the state chairmen are confident of
carrying the state. 1t is calculated that
the state ticket, which will run about. even
with the national ticket and whichever
way the state ticket goes the national
ticket goes with it.
A majority of 10000 is expected to car
ry majority of the thirteen congressman,
while 10000 will carry the solid congress
ional delegation. The legislature will 90
with the state, although the republicans
have n majority of thirteen on hold-over
senators. Both republican and democratic
chairmen claim the state by from 10000
to $4,000 majority. Both sides expect the
largest vote in the history of the state.
The populist vote is figured at 10000, the
silver vote at 1900 and the gold demo-
Gratis at the same figure.

on even terms that Mckinley carries II
linOis by 10000 plurality.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1896-11-05

Ohio will give Mckinley larger plurality
than 1t has ever given any candidate for
president or governor, with the single
exception of Brough's majority, in 1868,
of 101 900.
While Chairman McConville of the
democratic state committee has given out
no official forecast, yet the democratic
managers are claiming an even chance on
the state and even in Hamilton county,
which includes Cincinnati
Ihe republican county committee
claim that Cincinnati will give Mckinley
over 10000 plurality and that the county
will not reduce it any.

NORTH CAROLINA.

Raleigh, n. c.. Nov. while the re-
publicans claim Mckinley will carry the
state by from 10000 up to as high as
10000 the democrats seem not to regard
these claims seriously, but feel comforta-
bly, sure of Bryan carrying the state by
from 10000 to 10000.
The democrats are working with great
ZEAL but there is some feeling of uneasi-
ness, though nine-tenths of the democrats
are sincere, it would seem, in the belief
that Watson for governor would pull
through with at least 10000 plurality.
Many put the figures higher
The Russell men are quite buoyant and
claim 1900 votes for their candidate,
giving Guthrie, populist, 10000 and Wat
son 100000.

rallies were held throughout the state to-
day by both parties The republicans, ut
u great expense, have made careful polls
of the state, and the lists show major
ity of 10000 for Mckinley electors. The
fusionists claim at least 10000 majority
for the Bryan electoral ticket. Tonight

said the committee will close its head
quarters this week and will have enough
money left to settle all bills. The com

In VIRGINIA..

Petersburg, Va, Nov. 1.-The regu.

ity, some estimates placing the figures
as high as $4,000. The republicans also
appear to be confident of carrying the
state, but give no figures. There is no
populist ticket in the field and the party
is generally supporting the democratic
candidates. There are now authentic
reports of republican detection every
where. The circumstances seem TO JUS
