DECREASE OF NEW HAVEN
 FREIGHT EARNINGS.

President Hall of the New Haven Railroad company says in regard to the repeated reports of decreased freight earnings on the New Haven system that the returns for the last few weeks show some diminution of freight traffic. The decrease, he adds, is not serious, and is due partly to the effect of the coal strike on October and November business, the transfer of western freight business by the Boston and Maine to the Fitchburg line and the shipping of freight on the Naugatuck division to the New Haven and New York boat line. There has, he says, been practi- cally no diversion of freight by the New York Central since it acquired the Boston and Albany, and increased pas senger business has almost made good any losses by freight

several callers last evening.
Il have doubt that New-York State will go
Republican this fall" Senator Platt said to re-
porters. II have my own idea of the majority the
State will give for the ticket. but do not care
mention II W. There does not seem to be
any lack OF enthusiasm among the Republicans
Judging by the four big meetings in the city last
Friday night The Democrats got a bad start and
I don't believe they will be able TO catch up par
ticularly If the Republicans keep up their present
gait
When the Senator reminded of the fact that
Mr.. Croker had declared the Democrats would have
a large campaign fund he smiled and said: They
always DO have. They can assess all the LIQUOR
stores and brothels in the city and get much as
they need"
He told that Mr.. Croker had made Offers TO
bet Sc coo against S25G0 That the State will go Dem

discussion that followed lasted till after T.
Formal action other than discussion was not
taken to-day, but committees representing the
various big lines of commercial and industrial
interests In Chicago viii be organized later for
propaganda among them. Senator Hanna made
a little speech forcefu1 and practical though
short after the tables were cleared Business
men must not take IT for granted he said that
President Mckinley would be elected without
work He also reminded them that the busi-
ness of electing prosperity bringing President
was like every other business in that f; re-
qu'red capital and effort
Inc senator tnen reviewed the situation to
show why business men ought to wake up He
told them that NewYork was not wholly safe
that Indiana was IN positive danger, and that
there was a hard fight in Indiana. and that he
understood Illinois to be not in the best pos
siole condition. These States, he pointed out,
had to be made secure to insure Republican
success. Chairman Rowe Of the Illinois State
Committee backed up what Senator Hanna said
regarding Illinois.
The business men present then took turns in
talking in more optimistic way than the
political leaders did.
This little meeting" said Chairman Hanna
was a repetition of similar meetings held in
Philadelphia, New-YOrk and Boston 1t was
held for the simple purpose of waking business
