IOWA.

Des Moines la, November 5.-The chief feature of the day before the election in Iowa was a statement issued by Chairman Weaver of the Republican State Central Committee in reply to the public claims by Chairman Huffman of the Democratic com imttee that the Democrats will carry fif- teen more counties in Iowa this year than heretofore; will elect Congre ressmen in the First, Second, Sixth and Eighth Districts and that they have more than an even show to win in the Fifth District, which MT. Huffman declined to name, but which is known to be the Fourth, where he feels that the 1000 or more plurality for Haugen two years ago can be overcome. Chairman Viewers statement directs attention to the private circulars sent out by the Dem ocratic chairman recommending the organ ization of vigilance committees to watch the count, and says in part:
 There have never been any attempts to introduce Southern methods in Iowa cam paigns, and the Republicans don't propose to stand 1t at this time. We know we have tht voters to carry the State by an over whelming majority. These votes will be boiled and counted
 'There Is absolutely no question that the Republicans will carry every Congressional district in Iowa.
 '"The Republicans of Iowa will give Me- Kinley 75,000 majority and will elect every Congressional candidate"

FAMOUS HEROES TOMORROW NIGHT Wheeler and Hobson to Speak at Seals Hall for Confederate
 Veterans Home

Gen. Joseph Wheeler and Lieut.. Rich- mond Pearson Hobson will deliver public speeches at Seals Hall, Birmingham. to- morrow night.
 These two illustrious Alabamians are coming to Birmingham to be the guests of the Alabama State Fair Association, and Thursday will be especially observed at the fair and in the city in their honor.
 The Confederate Veterans telegraphed General Wheeler and MT. Hobson begging them to come to this city tomorrow in time to speak at night for the benefit of the proposed home for old Confederates, and yesterday favorable replies were re- ceived.
 Therefore General Wheeler and MT. Hob- son will make speeches at Seals Hall Wednesday night, beginning at 7:3O o'clock. An admission fee of 50 cents will be charged, and the money thereby obtained will be added to the fund for the sadly and urgently needed home for needy Confed- crate Vterans!

MISSOURI.

St Louis, November 5.-After one of the most animated fights known in the history of Missouri politics the Democrats express tonight the utmost confidence in their abili ty to elect Congressman Cookery Governor by plurolity of 30,000 and upward and to give the national ticket a majority of from 40, 900 to 50,000. The Republicans are equally confident. Many believe Mckinley and Roosevelt will have a slight majority over Bryan and Stevenson, and Railroad Com missioner Joseph Fiory will be elected.
 Others not so sanguine think that the Democratic national ticket will show a re- duced plurality.
 The Democrats say they will elect 13 out of 15 Congressmen, and the Republicans expect to elect five out of the fifteen, a gain of two.

NEBRASKA.

Omaha, Neb., November 1.-The Repub- lican State Committee is still claiming Ne brasloa by 5000 plurality for Mckinley, but this is met with the positive assertion by Chairman Hall, of the Democratic com- .mittee, that Mir Bryan will receive a plu- rality of at least 12,000
 Republicans generally says that Diet rich, Republican, will be elected over Governor Poynter, and Chairman Lind say declares that the legislature if safe for the Republicans. On the other hand, Chairman Hall says the whole state ticket will not run behind Bryan and that the legislature ls positively fusion.
 In the Congressional districts the honors will be divided.

onstration in honor of the woman's suff- rage candidate for President, is unique and original with this city. Tonight's affair, in honor of Mrs Catt, was the largest on rec ord, fully 2000 marchers being in line. The real woman suffragists have, however, on this occasion, entered an emphatic protest against the demonstration, but the opposi- ton seemed to add to the favor with which the public looked at it.
 Over 5000 people lined the street and laughed at the queer and ridiculous cos tunes the marchers wore.
 The situation tonight is unchanged. The Republicans continue to claim the state by over 15,000.

PENNSYLVANIA.

Philadelphia, November 5.-A big Repub- lican majority is conceded by the Demo- cratic leaders. Four years ago McKinley's s plurality in the state was 297000, of which plurality Philadelphia furnished 113,139. The highest previous plurality in the state for a Presidential candidate was 135,54S for Grant in 1872. In 1892 Harrisons plurality was 63747.
 McKinley's plurality of four years ago will no doubt be considerably reduced through the return to their party of many Democrats who opposed Bryan in 1896, and it Is thought also that McKinley's vote will be reduced to some extent on account of the fierce contests of the Quay and anti Quay Republicans to obtain control of the next Legislature. The Quay men in some sections have indorsed the Democratic leg islative candidates

polls four years ago expect to vote to- morrow. The great fight in the state will be for legislative offices The eight Sena- tors to be elected will have a vote next year for a Senator to succeed William J. Sewall Under ordinary circumstances the Democrats would hope to elect seven of the eight Senators because the counties from which they are to be elected are Democratic, but it being a Presidential year the Republicans claim the big vote that will be boiled for Mckinley will en- able them to pull through five of the Sena- tors. which would give them such ma jority In the Senate that only landslide next year would prevent them having a majority on joint ballot.
