| concerning his future plans and his atti-
| tude on public questions in view of Tues
days result. He intimated Friday that
he would before long, enlighten the pub
lie fully, but for the present he had pri-
vate matters which demanded his atten-
ton. Mr.. Bryan said he might not ac-
company Col. Wetmore on his hunting trip
In the Ozark mountains. His health is

Kentucky.
Louisville. Ky. Nov 10.-with unofficial
returns from every precinct in Kentucky,
the Courier-Journal puts Bryan's majority
| at 1885, and Beckham's at ITO. The coun-
~ boards canvassed the returns in every
| county In the state Friday. and SO coun-
| ties out of 119 In the state whose official re-
| turns have been received did not material
iy change the majorities in the foregoing
| There Is no doubt that the full official re-
| turns Will vary somewhat from the I'M
official figures. 1t is hardly possible that
majorities of 1855 and 4.1l0 shall be wiped
out, however. unless the unexpected hap
pens In the counties where the official re-
| turns are not In.
Chairman Leslie Combs, of the repub-
| lican. campaign committee. said he wished
to state his position as to contests and cor
| rect some erroneous impressions. He did
| not want to be understood as saying au-
| thoratively that the Kentucky election
| Will be contested. He says he will advise
| with national and state leaders as to
whether contests should be made. He does
not say that contests will be made over
the Third Ninth and Tenth congressional
districts, but says that IL his information
about the election in these districts is cor
rect. contests should be made. He is in
favor OF contesting the electoral vote of
the state. not because Kentucky's vote is
needed by the Mckinley electors, but for
precedent IF we allow this election to
pass uncontested." says Chairman Combs,
I'VE only foster more frauds for the fu-
ture" Mr.. Combs says there will be no
contest for governor. and he has never ad-
vised that the governorship should be con-
tested.

great extent for the democratic losses.
