CINCINNATI, Ohio. Oct. Si.-There
were many bets taken here last night
on the result OF the election The bet
ting was limited to Ohio, odds We're
given on the Republican state ticket,
but the offers of even money on the leg
lslature were not wanting, odds were
asked on the fusion ticket IN Hamilton
county, but the betting was mostly
even.
The betting fraternity are carefully
reviewing the figures of former years
as well as present conditions. The
Democrats elected James e. Campbell,
governor with a full state ticket. in
1889, and secured a legislature that
elected Calvin S. Brice. senator. Then
followed the large Republican pluralit-
les by which Mckinley was elected
governor in 1891 and 1893. In 1894 the
Republican plurality was 1906, the
largest ever known In the state. Two
years ago Governor Bushnell had a
Republican plurality or 92,622 and the
legislature that elected Senator Fora
ker had majority on joint ballot of
eighty.
Last year Ohio gave Mckinley a plu-
rallty Of 51,10s for President, and II is
with this vote OF last November for
President that the vote OF next Tuesday
viii be compared.
Last year the Republican pluralities
were largely In the cities. Hamilton
county then gave a Republican plural
Ity OF nearly twenty thousand and
Cl yahoga county OF over $4,000. Fac
tlonal troubles at Cincinnati andC Cleve-
land ore expected to reduce these plu-
rallties. AS the polls close at p. m,
at Cincinnati and Cleveland, the first
returns will come from these cities and
show Democratic gains. The returns
from other cities are expected to show
smaller Democratic gains.
The Republicans are counting on
galns in the rural districts, where pros
perlty has resumed more than in the
towns. The Democrats claim they will
hold the rural vote and win out on the
changes In the cities.

when the purchasers had made all

Mr.. Miller smiled a contented smile,

probable, being naturally aware that
last falls immense majority OF eighty
In the lower house was due to the ma
tlonal campaign. The next assembly
will, however, be still Republican by a
very good margin, but the Democrats
viii accomplish one thing for which
they are evidently strivlng--the re-
duclion OF the Republican majority TO
such an extent that in such reduction
they may see hope OF Democratic
house In 1859, when successor TO Sen
at0r Edward Murphy Is to be elected.
The Republicans profess to believe that
It win be a good thing for the party 70
have smaller proportion OF Repubn-
cans while stlll retaining majority
within their party. The localities where
the Democrats expect TO gain most
largely are New York and Kings coun-
ties. In the former they expect 10 cap
ture the Tenth, Thirtleth. Thirty-third.
Thirty-fourth, Thlrty-hfth and the
First Westchester. In addition to
those they now hold and this will give
them twenty-seven members out OF
thirty-seven. In Kings they are claim
ing to be able TO get twelve of the
twenty-one districts at least, calculat-
Ing to gain in the Sixth, Seventh,
Twentieth. Thirteenth and Fifteenth
districts, in addition to those they now
hold. In the upstate counties those
mentioned as gaining points are:
Albany, Chemupg. Rensselaer,, onei-
da. onondaga, Erie and Niagara.
No contest in politics OF purely To-
cal nature has ever created such Inter
est In the upstate counties as has the
Greater New York contest for mayor,
and tho death of one OF the foremost
candidates has added to that interest.
From carefully gathered opinions Of
Republican leaders outside OF the con-
fines OF the municipality in which the
contest is occurring, II Is apparent that
the general expectations are that Tam
many will win and that Mr.. Low and
Mr. Tracy will have a fight for second
place. These prognostlcations are bas-
ed upon the theory that the normal Re-
publican vote Is very much more even
ly divided among the candidaten than
is the Democratic vote, and the infor-
nation comes from such reliable
sources that It is hardly to be ques-
tioned. In other cities II Is believed
the Republican candidates for mayor
will be unusually successful, with the
possible exception of Albany, where a
Democrat may succeed the present

BALTIMORE, Md. Oct. 3i.--The vot-

elect state comptroller, a clerk of the
court OF appeals and a new legislature,
which In turn, will choose q successor
to United States Senator Arthur Pue
German. In the city OF Baltimore a
mayor and new council will be cho-
sen. The campaign, which has been
an unusually bitter one, closed last
night with mass meetings all along
the line and nothing now remains but
TO cast and count the vote. The state
Offices to be filled are unlmportant, the
main interest centering In the leglsla-
tive contest. II the Democrats win
Senator German will doubtless be cho-
sen for another term, while II the Re-
publlcans are victorious, there will
probably be sharp fight for the seat
among dozen asplrants, with the
chances slightly in favor OF the selec-
tlon OF Congressmtn Sydney Il. Mudd.

the coming election, II can only be said
that the result Is In great doubt, though
both sides claim to be able to count
enough votes In the legislature to Sc
cure majority on Joint ballot and to
elect the United States senator. The
Republicans have n slight advantage in
that OF the thirteen "hold-over' state

 Nov underwear has decidedly fu- noroal ttnge Pure white linen gar ments. lace and ribbon trimmed, are no longer fashionable. To be quite up to date tho dainty skirt or corset cover must have wide edge of black cmbroid- cry. This is Trench idea, but 1t was quickly adopted by American women, many of whose werdrobes heye now q decidedly half mourning air.
 The embroidery used is very wide and usually very fire. A tiny sample of it IS sufficiently dismal, but the new gar ments have rows upon rows of it, the craze for deep, overlapping founces be- inc nt a clinax. At intervals the sober effect Is accentuated by q broad black eib5on bow, and the scheme is even car ried out so far es 10 have each garment fastened by tiny black buttons.
