contest. The Republicans and National

BIG VOTE IN LOUISVILLE.
Louisville, KY, Nov. 2.-From all indi.
withdrawing it is raining steadily. Never
in the history of the city have party lines
been drawn so closely. The Republican
nominee, Mayor Geo. D. Todd, has only
portion of the city machinery in his
hands. The police and fire departments
being controlled by the Democrats, the
Republicans claim that the Democrats
are making arrangements to capture the
city by fair or foul means. The A. P. A.
is solidly aligned for the Republican
ticket it is said, and the Catholic vote
will be equally as solid for the Demo-
cratic ticket.
Boston, Mass, Nov. 2.-Rain is pre-
vailing all over Massachusetts today, and
the vote during the early hours was slow.
The opinion that Governor Wolcott ia
sure of re- election has doubtless affected
the volume OF the vote.
ELECTION CLAIMED BY BOTH PARTIES.
Baltimore, Nd, Nov. 2.-The polls
opened during a perfect deluge. The
rain eventually checked the voting in the
first hour. A O'Clock the skies cleared
a bit and the indications at that hour
pointed to the polling of heavy vote,
with the result in doubt.
Both parties issued manifestos last
night, in which each claimed sweeping
victory. ~,

followers that victory for the Repub-
lioans means blow to blmetallism.

but the roads, owing to the snow storm

date for supreme Judge, but the Silver

ties, and the issues are very much
mixed.

gions the negroes are following the ad.
