The largest odds yet offered on Mckinley were
made in a wager at the Union League Club on
Tuesday night. Two we'll known members Of
the club were talking politics, and both agreed
that Mckinley would be elected One was far
more optimistic than the other however and
made predictions that the other did not regard
as reasonable.
'Iu tell you what I'll do" said No. l. I'm
so sure that Mckinley will be elected that I'll
bet you 81 500 to 500 the result"
No 2 is also a Mckinley man, but the odds
were so tempting that he quickly took No l up,
and the money was placed in the hands Of a

bettors is a member of the Stock Exchange and
the other is a member of a firm which has a

here this afternoon that the demands OF the
anthracite coal miners convention had been
granted by the Reading Coal and Iron Com
pany was as welcome it surprising in
the SchuylkiII region. The labor leaders We're
not in the secret. There VIII now be bonfres
meetings parades and general jubiIation by
the miners. Some Of the conservative leaders
favor a quiet acceptance OF the victory but it Ia
doubtful II their counseIs viii prevail. The
Reading company employs twenty-eight thou
sand men, one-ffth Of all the anthracite workers
and they will undoubtedly be ready to go TO
work Just as soon as they are ordered 10 do so
by President Mitchell This order will come
when the big coal companies in the upper region
accept the demands OF the miners The indi-
viduaI operators must. OF course. fall into line.
The Reading company has been rushing its
cars into the coal region ever since the strike
began and 1t is estimated that 1t has in tho
neigh borhood OF ten thousand enpties now on
sidings throughout the regions at points easy
Of access The company owns about fifteen
thousand coal cars. and OF this number nearly six
thousand have been employed in the soft coal
trade In the Clearfed Western Pennsylvania
and West Virginia regions. The momenU the
strike is declared of the company will be in a
position TO rush It's cars TO the mines. and
within twenty-four hours afterward the traffic
will assume proportions seldom witnessed on the
Reading system. The temporary IuN in the
business has given the company an excellent
opportunity 10 put its machinery in shape an
over the road. and the motive power is now ia
good condition for the winter
One OF the men who had much to do with
the settlement OF the strike Is George r Baer
OF Reading. He is director OF the Reading
company, and took part In the conference to-
day In Philadelphia. He Is also an official OF
the Temple Iron Company. OF this county under
whose charter the Temple Coal Company was or
sanized several years ago. This company controls
some OF the largest anthracite colIieries around

NOT EXPECTED. IMMEDIATELY.
Washington, Oct. 17.-Ex-Secretary John sher-
is dangerously i'll at his home, in K-st..
this city. The attack has taken the form Of a
general collapse. due in part to the general de-
blty incident to old age and to the effects Of
the serious illness from which he suffered while
on trip to the West Indies two years ago. He
has never fully recovered from that illness Mrs
Shermans death in the summer, at the old
homestead, in Mansfield Ohio, also had its ef-
feet on the venera BILE statesman, who deeply
mourned her loss. Mr. Sherman returned to
Washington several weeks ago from Mansfield
and since that time has been living in the fam
lily home here He then in feeble health
but was able TO take daily drives about the
city. For the last week, however. he has been
gradually growing weaker. Yesterday and to-
day his condition grew worse. and relatives in
various parts of the country were informed Of
the change. Some of them are expected to come
to the city. There is said 20 be no immediate
danger Of death, and II Is possible that he may
rally If no further unfavorable symptoms occur.

and has heen a hard worker all his life
