VIEWS OF M'KINLEY.
Well Pleased with the Result as In
dicated by Early Returns.

01cate0 by Early returns.
PITTSBURG, Nov. 81 am well pleased
with the result of the election, as it indi-
Gates that fealty to the Republican party
and the principles it represents are as
strong as ever" So spoke William McKin-
ley, President of these United States, in the
private car Mayfower, at Canton, to a
Pittsburg Leader reporter about 1 o'clock
this morning. In the car was placed long
distance telephone and telegraph operator
and here the President, accompanied by
Senator Burrows and Private Secretary
Porter, sat and received the news of the
elections. The President made no effort to
disguise the fact that his views were CEN
tered in Ohio and in Senator Hanna. In
fact, President Mckinley was in constant
communication with Mr.. Hanna by tele-
phone up to l o'clock this morning, when he
was assured that all was we'll by message
telephoned by member of the Union
League Club. of Cleveland. President Nc
Kinley, in spite of the late hour at whtca he
went to bed last night, was up early this
morning and anxious to obtain election
news. He did not make any comment On the
situation, however, beyond that quoted
above, but chltted pleasantly about his visit
to Pittsburg and expressed himself as
pleased with being able tC be present at the
Founders day exercises.
Secretary Porter SAID to the reporter that
President Mckinley ws deeply interested
in the Ohio campaign. 1T is peculiar cleo
ton all around" he said. You see there are
so MANI local issues in the different States
that the national aspect is lost sight of. In
many States the election has resolved itself
into fight against 'bossism,' irrespective
of party.
The correspondent of the Associated
Press handed the President a copy of the
election news during the afternoon and
asked him if he had anything to say con-
corning the result He declined to express
any opinion at this time as he did not
know enough about the result to give an ex-
preston

Rubber Tires.

The Criterion.

The nerve-irritating noises which make
this town a purgatory to sensitive people
might be greatly diminished if our police
men would give some of the attention they
devote to the ordinances concerning women
in the street to those concerning vehicles
and peddlers in the street. One self-sacri-
ficing citizen a week two since secured
the conviction of a truckman who was driv-
ing with a load of iron beams without the
required sound deadeners. The policeman
should have done this without the citizens
Intervention. An ordinance requiring the
use of rubber tires on vehicles of all kinds
would make life in New York more endur-
able. This would not be the hardship II APP
pears at first glance, as a leading manu-
facturer of carriages is responsible for the
statement and proves it by his books. that
rubber tires not only prolong the life of the
vehicle, but also reduce the annual expendi-
ture for repairs more than 80 per cent. He
says that, so far as his business goes, the
use of the rubber tire is a most undesirable

wagons should take this statement into con-

BERLIN, Nov. 3.-The Tageblatt, COM
menting on the New York election, deplores
the victory of Tammany, 'as it places the
undesirable elements of the Irish on top"
and concludes: 1.-The victory in Greater
New York will have a sinister effect
throughout the United States, for it means
that the awakening desire for municipal re-
form has received terrific setback"
The Vossische Zeitung says that lit can
not be denied that corruption has tri-
umphed."
The Lokal Anzeiger asserts that 1t sympa-
thizes with "all honest people on the side Of
Tammany's adversarieS.'
The National Zeitung says: 1T is small
wonder that the Republicans were defeated
Georges adherents evidently refiocked to
the Tammany banner. The failure to defeat
Tammany is point scored against the
Washington administration"

ON THE ALASKAN TRAILS
GOLD SEEKERS ATTEMPTING To
CROSS SNOW-COVERED PASSES.
Many Narrow Escapes from Freezing
to Death on the GhilkoOt sum-
init - Laws for Miners.


SEATTLE, Wash, Nov. 3-The special
correspondent of the Associated Press at
Skaguay, Alaska, under date of Oct. q,
says: The weather at Lakes Bennett and
Lindermann lately has been exceptionally
fine. Following the cold snap at the begin
ming of this month, when the mercury fell
below the freezing point, came milder
term, and the coolest weather recorded
since was eight degrees above zero. The
lakes were still open on Saturday last and
a few people were still leaving for Dawson
City, although it is probable that those
leaving Lake Bennett after this date will
not get further down than Lake Tagish.
The Skaguay trail is completely clear, al
though considerable packing is still being
done between Skaguay and Summit
A good many of the argonauts are still
making their way over the Chilkoot pass,
packing their own outfits, as the Indians
have practically retired from the business
for this season. An Indian will not venture
over the pass until winter has thoroughly
set in and the snow has become packed Re
ports of narrow escapes from being frozen
to death on Chilkoot summit come in from
time to time, but as yet no fatality has been
recorded A physician from Kansas City
had a close call last Friday Benumbed with
cold he crawled into a cache, where he WAS
accidentally discovered by some white pack
ers. He was in state of semi-consciousness
when found and it was only by the greatest
exertlon that his life was saved.
Herman Waechter, a Spokane cattle
dealer, is here with 134 head of cattle and
one hundred head of live turkeys which he
proposes to drive over the Skaguay trail to
Lake Bennett. On arrival there the cattle
and fowls will be slaughtered and frozen
and taken down on the ice to Dawson City.
On Sept IL the cattle were started into the
interior over the Dalton trail. After max
ing ninety or one hundred miles the snow
became deeper and neither horses nor cattle
could secure forage and 1t was necessary
to turn back. Two other parties overtaken
on the trail were also obliged to return.

KEY WEST, Fla, Nov. 3.--Marshal
Blanco's reception has been marked by
GOODNESS on all sides. This is due to the
great dissatisfaction caused by his procla-
nations They have Disguised all parties.
A former director of the board of the au-
economist party said to-day to the CORE
spondent of the Associated Press: we
sincerely hoped that we would have au-
tonomy, but now we fell that we are not to
have it. Blanco's policy of amalgamating
all political parties will not result as ne ex-
in office and we refuse to side with the
Conservatives and the military elements.
viii serve to increase the general dissatis-
faction. BY insulting us in his proclama-
tions Marshal Blanco has placed all talk OF
surrender on our part out OF the question.
