Wall Street PROCESSES to have dis
counted "Bryan's defeat ard the
spectators in the money mart have
been declaring loudly that they would
take all the money offered, giving
odds of i to that Mckinley would
be elected.
Since then there has been a ste ady
flow Of Bryan money down to the fl
nancial district, the odds proving
most attractive to those who have
made study Of the political si.ua-
ton.
The consequence was that yester-
day the odds took slump that is
significant, for now a Bryan pe ttor
cannot get more than even money on
the contest.
John J. Judge, broke, on the curb,
has been handling some Mckinley
money, and has been givin5 odds of 4
to I. He would not do better than
even money yesterday, and found
takers at even the reduced odds
A fellow broker snapped up SIoo
of the money and it is said that to-
day there will be as much Bryan
money in the Street at one for one as
there was under the better odds.
1t is considered as indicating clear
~ that the confidence of the monopo
lists in Mckinley's ability to carry
the election is much broken wher
they reduce their odds so radically
and it is declared to be just as signif
icant that the Bryan men, strong il
their trust in Democracy triumph
are willing to place their money
without demanding odds.-New Yorl
