THIS YEARS VOTE.

A staff correspondent of the Wash.

the wire from Chicago:
"At neither headquarters is there ex.
pectation that the vote for president
next November will be anywhere near
As large as it was four years ago. Some
very close figuring is being done as to
the extent of the anticipated falling of,
and who will be hnrt worst by it. Dem.
ocrats claim and Republicans do NOT
deny that Mckinley will suffer more
than Bryan, hence their anxiety to
whoop things up and arouse enthusiasm
by the burning of red fire and the pound
ing Of drums. The total vote four years
ago was nearly 14.ooo,ooo. Few look to
see it above 100000 this year. and
the count may be half million short Of
that. At Republican headquarters the
complaint is apathy. based to consid'
cradle extent on supreme confidence In
the election Of Mckinley, feeling which
begets indifference and laz,ness. That
tired feeling on the part of Republicans
nav beat the national ticket"
