claim anything at all
At both headquarters there was today

Canton for a visit to Major Mckinley re-
turning to Cleveland at 2:3O, and will re-
ceive the election returns in his office.
Henry e. Payne at republican headquarters,

Republicans VIII Take Everything in
sight Nv big Mnjorities.

CHICAGO. Nov. 2.-On the eve of election
the lines of the two great parties are in
practically about the same condition as
when the situation was outlined forty-eight
hours earlier. The admission of Chairman
Jones that this state could be classed among
those in the doubtful" column has not
been over encouraging to the managers Of
the state election on the democratic side,
but they have not weakened in the least and
say tonight that they are sure OF carrying
the state by majority OF from $4,000 to
40 900. They claim fourteen out OF twenty
one congressman, majority OF the lower
house in the state legislature and say that
with the aid OF the populists to be elected
they will elect silver man to be the sue
cessor of Senator John NJ. Palmer. The
claims OF the republicans are more eAteI-
siye, and, with two or three exceptions, they
claim every one of the congressman, all Of
the state ticket and the electoral vote for
Mckinley by anywhere from $4,000 TO $50,
600 They say that they are absolutely sure
OF the result OF the state and national
tickets, as the poll of the state, which they
have been conducting, has been so thorough
and so exact that there is very little chance
of any estimate made upon 1t being far
out OF the way.
Allen Maxwell, the candidate for state
auditor on the democratic silver ticket, sent
word to Chairman Jones today that he had
discovered "a plan OF the republicans to
republicans were disposed TO ridiCule the
story and said that If anybody was caught
trying to steal the election, no matter to
whom he might be about to try TO deliver
It, they would join hands with the demo

the Fifth congressional district has been
one OF the hottest OF the campaign and Con

John a. Mcdonnell, an Independent repub-
lican, is having a sharp fight for election.
OF the other Chicago congressman, Cook OF
the Sixth district and Foss in the Seventh
seem fairly well assured of reelection. The
opposition against them seems to be badly
split up. The republicans say that they will
have all the congressman in the northern
part of the state by large majorites and
:he only men they stand TO lose are from the
southern portion, where they admit they
have no bright chances of winning out
They are, however. they assert, absolutely
sure Of carrying by far the larger portion
Of the congressional delegation.
