MANY STATES ARE
HOLEINC ELECTIONS
Republicans Claiming Ohio
by 1000 Plurality.
PROSPECTS IN OTHER STATES
Democrats Are Claiming Bay State
With Considerable Confidence.
Much Apathy Marks the Campaign
In Pennsylvania,

Columbus, O., Nov. with indica
tions for rain in Ohio tomorrow, the
total vote may be much less than 900,
600, on which he Republicans have
been estimating their plurality at near
ly 100000 for governor and other istate
officers, with from 40 to so majority
in the legislature on joint ballot fol
United States senator.
The Democrats gave no figures on
the state ticket, and counting doubtful
counties in their favor, estimate a
Democratic state majority of five on
joint ballot. One statement from the
Democratic state headquarters says the
legislature might stand on joint ballot
72 Democrats to II Republicans.
Republicans are offering bets of as
high as $4,000 plurality and that the
majority in joint ballot in the Iegis-
lature will even aid that of two years
ago when the Republicans carried sew
sral Democratic districts and counties,
and had the very unusual plurality of
35 on joint ballot in re-electing i5ena-
tor Foraker. There is much less bet
ting than heretofore, and is all on -
size of the Republican plurality on the
state ticket and the majority on joint
ballot in the Legislature.
There are some bets that the Demo
Gratis will not carry more than 80 O
the 88 counties or more than ten of
the 33 senatorial districts.
While there are several doubtful
counties, the most doubtful one and
the most important one in the doubt
ful list is Cuyahoga, the home of
Hanna and Clarke, and of Herrick and
Johnson, the candidates for senator
and governor. If the Republicans
carry that county with its four sena-
tors and ten representatives, they will
undoubtedly have the largest majority
on joint ballot in the legislature that
has ever been known. Without Cay
ahoga county, the Republicans claim
they will have the senate % to II and
the house "A to 81, with a majority OF
48 on joint ballot, but in this estimate
they include Franklin and other doubt
All NOuACICS Ill CAS h0puOlICdu AlSC
By including Cuyahoga and other
