FINAL PREDICTIONS MADE BY
RIVAL PARTY MANAGERS ON
THE EVE OF ELECTION.
BOTH SIDES ARE CLAIMING OHIO
CONTEST IN NEW YORK CITY DE.
cIDEDLY CLOSE, WITH EVEN
CHANCES OF VICTORY.

Columbus, O., Nov 3.-Indications
are that the total vote in Ohio
will be less than 100000, on which
the Republicans have been estimating
their plurality at nearly 100000 for
governor and other state officers, with
from forty to fifty majority in the
legislature on joint ballot for United
States senator The Democrats give
no figures on the state ticket and,
counting doubtful counties in their
favor. estimate a Democratic majority
of five IN the legislature on joint bal
lot. One statement from the Demo
cratic state headquarters says the leg
islature might stand on joint ballot
seventy-two Democrats to seventy-one
Republicans.
Republicans are offering bets on as
high as $4,000 plurality and that the
majority on joint ballot in the legis-
lature will even exceed that of two
years ago, when the Republicans car
ried several Democratic districts and
counties and had the very unusual plu-
rality of thirty-tiye on joint ballot in
reelecting Senator Foraker. There is
much less betting than heretofore and
1t is all on the size of the Republican
plurality on the state ticket and ma
jority on joint ballot in the legsla-
ture

New Bulgarian Diplomatic Agent In
London Discusses Balkan Affairs
in Outspoken Interview.

London, Nov. 3.-M. Tzokoff, the
new Bulgarian diplomatic agent, who
has just arrived here, regards war be-
tween Turkey and Bulgaria as being
practically inevitable in the coming
spring. In an outspoken interview he
declares there is not the slightest real
improvement in the situation in Mace
donia. that the Austrian-Russian re-
form scheme is futile and that in con-
sequence of the treatment of Bul-
garans in Macedonia and the strain
on the principality's resources arising
from the necessity of supporting 160.-
600 refugees Bulgaria will be forced
to have recourse to war.
The Bulgarian agent further de-
clares that trade with Bulgaria has
absolutely ceased and adds that the
European banks have stopped the
GItuit VI the DuiSdi idn u.iiro, e.--~--
in turn have stopped the credit OF the
Bulgarian people.
This economic crisis" the agent
continues, will be hundredfold
worse next year and in itself must
provoke war All Bulgarians agree
that ii is better to have few weeks
war with Turkey, after which normal
relations will be resumed, than pro-
longation of the present strain on Bull
earia'S resources.

BIG FiKE AT CCNEY ISLAND SAID
TO HAVE BEEN STARTED
BY DRUNKEN WALTERS.
FINANCIAL LOSS REACHES SI,50O, 600
ONE LIFE LOST, TWO SCORE PER-
SONS INJURED AND FIVE
HUNDRED HOMELESS.

New York, Nov. 3.-Fourteen solid
blocks of buildings in ruins, one life
lost, two score persons injured, 300
persons homeless and a financial loss
of $1.500.000 is the outcome of an
alleged drunken freak which resulted
In fire at Coney island.
Frank Connolly, twenty-seven years
old, and Peter Shelley, thirty-eight
years old, former walters in the Alba
tross hotel at Sheepshead Walk and
the Bowery, are locked up charged
with arson on the strength OF a state
ment made by Barney Wolf, proprietor
of a Raines law hotel at the island.
Wolf says that on Friday night Con-
molly and Skelley, in the presence of
a crowd. said that things were getting
dull on the island and they believed
they would liven the place up with a
fire Wolf says he saw them start
fire, which he put out. He asserts
they started a second fire, but he ar
rived just as the flames shot up and
was unable to control them as he had
done before and he gave the alarm.
When he saw his own place go up like
tinder and heard his brother-in-law,
Albert Rubin, had his skull fractured
by leaping from window to save
himself, he told the police of Connolly
and Shelley.
The story of the alleged incendiar-
ism was all over the island while the
flames were at their height and feeling
against Connolly and Skelley ran high.
There is a great scarcity of food on
the island and hundreds are suffering
for the ordinary necessities of life.
Skelley and Connolly. upon arraign-
ment, pleaded not guilty to a charge
of suspicion of arson and they were
remanded for examination on Nov. 4.

Il think Chamberlain means more

sees the extraordinary power the selfish

in Great Britains hands. Three courses
are open to Great Britain. They can
use their power to force reciprocity on
the States. they can use it to stimulate
emigration and food production in
countries other than the States. or they
might use it to pave the way for
trade alliance between the English

would mean a Worldwide dominion of
the English-speaking peoples We may
live to see two great world empires

though they have sometimes descended

WITNESS TALKS
IN FAIR CASE
DR.. Perriquit for the Defense
Testifies Concerning Details
of the Automobile Accident
STATEMENT IS POSITIVE
Woman Who Appeared First
Says She Saw Wife Move At
ter Husbands Body Was Rigid

PARIS. Dec. 11.-Dr. Perriquet, con-
sidered the leading witness in the Fair
will case. testified to-day before Com
missioner Eiser of New York He said
he arrived on the scene an hour after
the automobile accident and found both
Charles L. Fair and his wife dead. The
body of Fair was already rigid, but
that CT his wife was not rigid, indicat-
ing that the former died first From
the condition of Fairs body the wit
ness believed his death had been in
stantaneous. The condition of Mrs.
Fairs body indicated that her death
was not instantaneous.
Dr. Perriauet recited the case of a
woman who was murdered near the
scene of the accident. Her wounds,
which were in the head. were almost
identical with these OF Mrs. Fair, the
victim living for many hours.
The witness further testified that
while he was unable to swear positive
ly whether Fair or Mrs. Fair died first,
yet his positive opinion was that Mrs.
Fair must have survived her husband.
The court has received a letter signed
"Lescour," an official of the local May
or's Office near the scene of the acci-
dent. saying that the porter's wife, who
found the bodies. told him she saw Mrs
Fairs hand move after Fair was dead.
The cross-examination of DR.. Peril
quet will take place Monday.
