FIGURING ON THE ELECTION
WASHINGTON MATHEMATICIANs
GUESSING ON THE GERMANS
AND GOLD DEMOCRATS
CAN ELECT BRYAN ON PAPER
But There Is Nothing to Prove tho
People VIII Cast Their
Ballots as They
Might.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1S.-(SpeciaL)-
No man is in better position to speak
for the German voters of the United
States than DR.. L. w. Habercom. He
was fifth auditor of the treasury during
the Harrison administration and, what
is ore-to the purpose. he was for many
years the German secretary Of the Re
publican national committee, resigning
that position only a few months ago be-
cause he was unable to follow his party
any further in what he considered It's
departure from the oIdfaith
DR.. Habercom says that 50 per cent.
and possibly IS, Of the German-American
voters supported Mckinley In 1896. AS
Stunning that the lower figure is correct
and that the remaining 20 per cent voted
for Bryan the German vote stood: Nc
hinley, 100000; Bryan, 440, 900; McKin-
ley's German plurality, 1920, OOO AS Nc
Ainley's plurality of the entire vote was
only 6O3,5OO it follows that if Dr. Haber-
CONS estimate Is correct Bryan's pIur-
atty of the non-German vote was &c.
500.
DR.. Habercom expresses the opinion
that 60 per cent of the German-American
voters this year will support Bryan. II
SO the German vote, increased to 2,325, 900,
will stand: Bryan, L. 900, and McKin-
ley $4,000; Bryan's plurality of the Ger
man vote, $4,000. Add this to his plur-
ality of the non-German vote in 1896
and his total plurality would be 1,181, 500.
winch is nearly twice as large as any
plurality of the popular vote ever known.
THREE STATES EXCEPTED
Dr. Habercom mentions three states to
which his estimates do not apply-New
York Kansas and Nebraska. Taking #
for granted that the conditions are the
same in the North Atlantic states as in
New York, and the same in the states
west Of Kansas and Nebraska as in
these two states the Middle West and
the Southern states carried by the Re
publicans would be left as the battle
ground: Leaving ali changes except
those In the German vote out Of CON
sideration and accepting DR.. Habercom's
opinion Of the changes as correct in these
states the following table will show what

EMBRACED WALDERsEE.
Dined and Entertained Before Leav-
ing for the East.

CASSEL, Prussia, AUG 1S.-In the
throne room of TIE palace here at noon
today in the presence Of Field Marshal
Count Won Waldersee and his staff,
Emperor William presented the count
with field marshals baton, and made
an appropriate speech. Tn which Won
WalderSee replied. A DINER followed
and his majesty toasted the Austrian en-
pero;.
At 3:45 p. M, Won Waldersee started for
Berlin, the emperor embracing ard kiss
ing him as he left.
The emperor began his speech by con-
graduating the officers upon having been
chosen as the staff to cooperate in the
campaign in China under the leadership
and direction of "our tried and trusty
field marshal" His majesty con-
tinued:
my dear Won Waldersee: I congrat-
ulate you that I am today again able to
greet you as the head of the united
troops of the civilized world. 1t is of
great significance that your Appointment
from the outset secured the support and
approval of the emperor of all the Rus
sias, the mighty ruler who makes his
power felt throughout the continent of
Asia This again shows how closely
united are the old traditions in arms Of
the two empires l hail with joy the
fact that at his majesty's suggestion
the whole of the CIVILIZED world without
distinction and spontaneously entrusted
to your excellency the command of its
troops. AS Prussians We can be graft
fed at the task assigned to you, as it
expresses approval of our military work
and the superb leadership Of our general
officers"
Then taking the baton of field mar
shals, with a few felicitOus eXhortations
expressive of his hope that Count Won
Waldersee might be destined to perform
the task set for him, whether tedious,
sanguinary or of whatever kind, in a
manner all would desire, the emperor
concluded:
'In the interest of our people I wish
our common expedition may turn into
a firm guarantee of mutual appreciation
and mutual peace for the European pow
ers so that what the czar attempted last
year in another field and what we failed
to do in peace may now perhaps be at
tanned with weapons in our hands"
Count Won Waldersee especially said
that as long as he had strength to hold
the baton, an order for a retreat should
never pass his lips. 80
At the dinner which followed, after
toasting Emperor Francis Joseph of Aus
tria, the SEVENTEEN anniversary Of whose
birth occurred today, Emperor William
proposed the following toast
Health to our noble ally and the true
friend of our land, whom we all honor
from the bottom OF our hearts"

We're paid q cents per ton, instead Of

The increased charge of unloading this
