Republicans. Confident THAT Bryan and free
silver Will ne Rcpudiated.

LINCOLN. Neb, Oct. 3l.-Much interest Is
centred in tho result In Nebraska on Tuesday
as indicating the growth or decadence OF the
silver issue as urRed.by MIR. Bryan. Few doubt
that the result Of tho election will accurately In
dicate this fact. The emphasis with which Bryan
and numerous lesser advocates have argued the
necessity Of voting for the allied silver ticket
to rebuke tho present national Administration
has necessarily brought national issues Into tho
campaign. Tho Republicans have steadily re-
fused to make an aggressive campaign and
have put no orators on the stump, as there Is
only tho election OF n member OF the Supreme
Court to make the campaign q State affair.
The silver mon declare this has been dono as
a blind, while the Republicans worked secretly
anu with money to carry the State, and have
an.repudiated at homo. Tho Republicans
and other elements opposed to silver deny
that any secret campaign further than a poll
OF the State has been carried on and declare
that no campaign was made because they felt
of the state last fall will be reversed,
State has contributed to make Mr.. Bryan's
fight n very. difficult affair. This was duo
1 pSintsya to to this tsS t sSssp tens t as ,n SSRPSiil,iG%n due has es
the defeat OF Mr.. Bryan and the silver Issue last
fall. Mr.. Bryan has ridiculed this and backed
the grain crop abroad as evidence that the
r crops in Nebraska are alone respon-
sible for prosperity, and that no political party
can. be blamed or praised for the result.
These two arguments have ruled the cam
paign. Now that the fight is over and only tho
verdict of the voters is awaited, both sides as.
sert positively that the victory will be with
them. Mr.. Bryan declared just before going TO
Ohio to make n few closing speeches that sill
yer would receive q higher vote this fall than
last In Nebraska, and that while not SO many
votes would be pollcd, the total would'showlNe
braska to be thoroughly allied with the silver
doctrine. The Chairmen Of tho various silver
parties assert the same belief. The Republican
Chairman says he expects to see Organism re-
puuiated. and the Republicans carry the
State. The Chairman of tho gold Demo
Gratis asserts that his party will show O strength
Of at least 10000 moro votes this year than
last, and that tho Republicans will carry the
State by about 10000 votes.

MARRIAGE OF PROF. JOHN BAKER
AND MISS RAMSAY.

Concert Hall. Played for the Wedding
Guests-The Lovers Used TO Correspond by
PrickiuE Words on Paper with - Pin.
May Josephine Ramsay, the blind daughter of
Joseph and Lydia Ramsay, was married yester-
day to Prof. John Baker, piano artist in Kerri-
gan's Pleasant Hall. in West Forty-second
street, who Is also blind. The ceremony was
performed at the pastoral residence of the
Church of the Holy Cross, at Ninth avenue and
Forty.second street, by Father Scanlrn. Joe
Miller was best man and Miss Emily Baker of
Eighth avenue was the only bridesmaid.
After the ceremony there was a reception at
GIL Ninth avenue, where the Ramsays live.
About half OF the guests were blind. but that
did not prevent their making merry. Much of
the merriment was due to the joyousness Of tho
bride as she recognized the voices OF her friends
and followed up the recognition with a rush and
q hug that swept before them any one who did
not get out of the way. She is u tall. slender
girl, with black and curly hair. She has the
sort Of laugh that makes other people laugh
whether they want to or not. Tho festivities
took place in q vacant fiat above that Of the
Ramsays.
A lot Of chairs were brought In from Baihy's
undertaking shop, and a piano from Kerrigan's
music hall. Piano moving by inexperienced
hands on Sunday is a precarious undertaking.
The guests. seeing and sightless. all took hold,
Notwithstanding loud admonitions from the
groom, who 3 ,ood at the head OF the stairs and

half OF you, and be good. won't you. Pete Berg
meyer, IL you don't shake your hold and go out
and get a tap for the keg, we'll all be up against
1t and a dying of thirst"
At last the piano was propped up in a corner
of the front room. The piano stool wac pulled
out from under q young man who. though not
blind, had been sitting on 1t while he advised
somebody to go next door TO borrow one. The
groom. who Is tall and round'faced, sat
down and played. He played everything
that anybody suggested, while Lawrence
