New York, Nov. 2.-EIection bet
ting on Wall street doomed today
Wnen the campaign first opened the
odds iuctusted, but finally settled at
4 to l with nothing doing" This
continued unit great deal OF McKin-
lev money accumulated and then it was
suddenly discovered that this money
was being quietly absorbed. Then
came a furry and talk OF republican
apathy and the odds dropped steadily
until they reached 2 to l. Then the
Bryan money disappeared and the odds
began to climb again until the standard
figure was 5 to l. Today there seem
ed to be a new supply Of Bryan money
aud at noon one outside broker sent
word to the "ticker" that be had
s.. 900 to bet on the Bryan end at 5 to l
or Al to 1. Nearly all this Bryan
money has been placed in small
amounts. A great deal OF il must have
been gotten on before the market fell,
while one big bet on Bryan would have
shaken the odds at once. IL is believed
that today's roll was sent down to the
street by Tammsny men.

A CARD.

Mrs. Jane c. Msrye was member
OF the Mount Vernon branch OF the
Dau5 hters of the American Revolution
and being a real daughter was present
ed with the cold spoon by the national
society. Such being the case, it seems
strange that her daughters are among
the few people no. invited to either re-
ception, concert or any entertainment
given the visitors from other societies
nov In Alexandria. The gold spoon is
given only 10 "real daughters" Mrs.
Marye at the time of her death, four
years ago, was the only one in this
place, perhaps in Virginia.
