North Carolina Democrats Give n Hint
to Negroes Who Would Vote.

WILMINGTON, N. c., Nov. THE spirit
of the whites is so determined and their
preparations for an emergency so thorough
that there now seems small probability of
any general disturbance here tomorrow;
though there may be troubles of a minor
nature in the First and Fourth wards,
where the negroes poll nearly all their city
vote. The focus of interest now is the fight
for the state senatorship, but without any
other agency it is now conservatively es-
timated that a sufficient number of negroes
will remain away from the polls to insure
the election of the Democratic candidate.
Moreover the Democrats have intimated
that they must have this senator and this
hint is full of meaning. There is no change
in the general outlook in the State. Indi-
cations point unerringly to a sweeping
Democratic success

BETTING IN NEW YORK.

Republicans Compelled to Give Odds
10 Place Their Money.
NEW YORK. Nov. THE last day before
election marked a wonderful change in the
betting on the gubernatorlal race and the
odds of 10 to on Van Wyck which had pre-
vailed for several days began to wobble
early in the morning under a pressure of Re-
publican money. until by noon even money
offered by Colonel Roosevelts supporters
almost went begging. In the afternoon the
odds switched over t the Republican candi-
date, and 10 to 8. and III some instances 2 to
l. was offered on his chances to win. A
good amount of this money found takers,
but there seemed to be a surplus of Re-
publican money on the market and much of
it went uncared for.
The first attack on the Democratic odds
began in Wall street in the morning. and
bets aggregatng $4,000 were made in an
hours time most of 1t being at slight odds
on Van Wyck or even money. When, how
ever the Republican roll made its appear
ance with the Commission layers at the
Hoffman House and the Fifth-avenue Ho-
tel, the Democratic bettors demanded odds,
which were cheerfully. given. About noon
c. H. De Witt went into Wall street with
$26 goo, which he offered at to 10 on Van
Wyck. Some of it was taken, but the names
of the bettors were not made public.
One bet of S. 900 to 800 in favor of Roose-
welt is said to have been made in Wall
street. and Washington Seligman laid $500
to $3.50 Roosevelt and offered several
thousands at odds of 10 to on .Ae Repub-
lican candidate without takeT.
Bell & Co., who have been placing num-
Der of bets in favor of the Democratic cam
didate, to-day laid all the money they had
left, about $780, getting to 10 for some of
it. Among the bets they made were $500
against $1,000 and $1,000 against $1,000. They
claim they could have placed $4,000 more if
