FIGURING ON THE RESULT.
How Politicians Estimate Roose-
ve1t's Majority In New York.


NEW YORK, Oct 30.-The Herald"
says:
Politicians were all figuring yesterday
on the result of the coming election in
this State.
Frederick S. Gibbs, Republican Ma
tional Committeeman, gave the follow
ing estimate:
Roosevelt's plurality north of the
Bronx, 10000; Van Wyck's plurality
south of the Bronx, $1,000; Roosevelts
plurality in the State, $1,000
Colonel Baxter, Clerk of the Assem-
bly,, made this estimate: Roosevelts
plurality north of the Bronx, 5000;
Van Wyck's plurality south of the
Bronx, Al, 900; Roosevelt's plurality in
the State, $4,000.
Colonel Baxter predicted that there
would be 40 Republicans and 90 Demo-
Gratis in the Assembly and 20 Republi-
cans and 20 Democrats in the Senate
While neither Chairman Odell of the
Republican State Central Committee or
Mr.. Barnes Of the Executive Commit
tee, would give figures, Colonel Roose-
velt's managers predict that his plural
ity over the Bronx would be more than
$4,000 and that Van Wyck's lead below
the river will be less than 10000. This
would give Roosevelt a plurality of
more than 10000.
j. E. Carroll has not yet received the
figures Of the Tammany district lead
ers, but his own estimate is that Van
Wyck will have 10000 plurality IN
Greater New York.

SPOKANE CWash), Oct. 30. - The
most marvellous strike recorded in a
mine of Washington was made to-day
in the Republic mine at Republic on
the north half of Colville Reservation.
Free milling ore averaging fifteen
ounces Of gold or near $500 to the ton
was encountered at depth of 400 feet
from the surface. The drills cut
through twenty-four feet Of ledge mat
ter. The last sixteen feet averaged
fifteen ounces, and the farther wall Of
the pay streak has not yet been en-
countered The mine has always shown
rich ore, but this discovery makes 9TH
er mines near by almost certain of en-
countering the ledge at great depths.
The effect of the discovery was elec-
trical in Spokane. Quotations for
stocks of mines in the vicinity jumped
from 10 to So cents a share, and 1O0,-
GOO shares Of various companies
changed hands this afternoon.

A DISPUTED CROSSING.
An Improvised Wreck and an In
junction to Stop the Work.

CHICAGO, Oct. 30.-An injunction
and an improvised wreck to-day
brought to a sudden stop the work Of
laying the tracks of the General Elec-
tric Street Railway on Plymouth street
south of Fourteenth which was started
at midnight last night.
On the petition of the Chicago and
Western Indiana Railroad, Judge
Payne to-day issued a temporary in
junction restraining the constructing
company from proceeding with the
work which had been finished to the
Fourteenth street crossing of the Chi
cago and Western Indiana. Previous
to this, however the railroad officials
had run four cars loaded with coal and
ice at great speed into the Grand
Trunk warehouse at the disputed
crossing.
With the injunction a squad of po-
licemen were sent out to prevent the
construction company from removing
the obstructions. Measures will be
taken at once by the street car COM
pany TO have the injunction set aside.
The franchise for building an under
ground electric system on the South
Side was granted the General Electric
Company by the City Council in 1895.
The franchise was bitterly fought In
the courts, it being alleged that "Ques-

A HORRIBLE CONFESSION.
The Father Tells How He and His
Wife Planned His Sons Murder.

NEW YORK, Oct 30-Nicholas
Jackson Of HaCkensack, who was sent
to Trenton Prison to serve ten years
for causing the death of his six-year-
old son Louis, confessed to Sheriff Her.
ring and Deputy Sheriff Jackson while
they were on their way to Trenton from
Hackensack with the prisoner. On this
information Mrs. Jackson is held as an
accessory to the murder Of her STEP
son.
Here are Jacksons words to the
Sheriff: My wife, whom I had only
recently married, didn't like Louis, my
little boy, and we had many quarrels
about him. She helped me plan the
murder and I was to put the boy on
the tracks / went to Teaneck and
stood near the West Shore railroad
track. l was afraid to put the young
ster on the track alive for fear he would
get off, so I struck him IN the stomach
with an iron bolt and that made him
unconscious. Then l put him on the
track just below the crossing and
waited for a train to come along. When
was convinced that he was dead, ]
went home. / fixed up the story about
my leaving the boy asleep on the hill
near the tracks to save my life. The
jury believed me and found me guilty
of manslaughter, thinking that Louis
walked on the track and was struck by
a train. I got off dead easy"
Prosecutor Stagg will go to Trenton
this week and make arrangements to
have Jackson appear before the next
Grand Jury to testify as to Mrs. Jack
sons connection with the plan of the

THE NEWEST GUNS.
Government Sends an Expert t.
England to Investigate Them.

NEW YORK, Oct. 31.-A dispatch to
the Herald from Washington says:
That the latest improvements in the
manufacture Of ordnance may be OBJ
tanned for future American men-ef-
war orders have been given to Com
mander r. c. Pendleton, Superintendent
Of the gun factory, to proceed to Eng
land to inspect the methods pursued
there in the construction of guns,
mounts, torpedo tubes, etc.
Wire-wotnd guns, which have been
so successfully developed for the Eng
lish navy, will be carefully examined
by the visiting officer and, as under
water discharge tubes for .torpedoes
have been adopted for the battleships
Maine, Missouri and Ohio, he will learn
the method of their manufacture at the
ordnance works Of the Armstrong.
The department has purchased the
right to use the method Of manufacture
Of under water discharge tubes from
the Armstrong; and have bought the
right to use the breech mechanism Of
guns built by Vickers' Sons and
Maxim.
The 6-inch rapid firing gun built by
the latter firm is one of the latest wea-
splendid record having been made in
firing trials which were held some time
ago. In this gun the powder and pro-
jectile are separated, while in the o.
inch rapid firing guns of the United
States navy the shell and powder are
combined by means Of a carriage case.
A 6-inch gun on plans somewhat
similar to those followed in the con-
struction of the Vickers gun was re-
Gently built. The tests Of this weapon
at the proving grounds have demon
strated their value and all future g.
inch guns will be constructed on the
same lines. The new type is 45 feet
in length and weighs eight tons and
is designed for a muzzle velocity Of
5000 feet per second.
1t is the intention Of the Ordnance
Bureau to equip no more protected or
unprotected cruisers with torpedo
tubes, the authorities being pretty we'll
convinced that there is no necessity for
them.
Water discharge tubes will be sup
piled to armored cruisers and battle
ships.
Captain Charles O'Neil's recommen-
dation that a uniform caliber Of small
arms be adopted for the use Of the
army, navy and marine corps has at
tracted considerable attention in army
and navy circles. 1t is expected that
Secretary Long will indorse a bill pro-
viding for cooperation on the present
army and navy to obtain a uniform
arm. The caliber Of the Lee small arms
in use in the navy is .263, while that
of the Krag-Jorgensen rifle is 80 The
army Is convinced that the Krag-Jor-
gensen rife is best for its use, while the
navy asserts that the Lee is superior:
1t is not believed that any great OBJ
lection would be raised by the navy to
increasing the caliber of it's gun to 80
so that cartridges manufactured for
the Lee might be used for the Krag-
Jorgensen.
