FORECAST OF ELECTION
CONTINUED from First Page.)

Republican headquarters today. Re-
garding the congressional vote, there
was still much difference of opinion
and both sides were dong their ut
most to verify their contending
elailns-the Republicans to elect in
twelve out of the fourteen districts in
the state and the Democrats to carry
the Third, Fifth and Eleventh districts
as well as the Ninth and Tenth dis
1ricts, conceded by the Republicans.
In the Eleventh district the contest
will be close. Eugene N. Foss, the
leading exponent of reciprocal trade
relations with Canada, is the Repub-
ucan candidate, opposed to Congress-
man John A. Sullivan. Each party
claims that it will show gains in the
legislature

PENNSYLVANIA.

Philadelphia, Nov. THE political
atmosphere in this state is unusually
calm today, due no doubt to the gen
eral anticipation that the customary
Republican majorities will be voted.
For a presidential campaign there has
been less activity than might have
been expected. Indications point to
fine weather tomorrow and the Re
publican managers express the opin-
ion that a full Republican vote will be
polled throughout the state and that
Roosevelt and Fairbanks will have
majority exceeding 100000. 1t is pre-
dicted that the states delegation in
the national house of representatives
will consist of % Republicans and
Democrats.

TEXAS.

Austin, Tex. Nov. THE Demo-

strength at tomorrow's election.
Owing, possibly to the fact that the
Democratic ticket. both state and ma
tional, will carry as usual, there was
marked apathy upon the part of the
voters. This brought forth today's
card from the Democratic managers,
who fear the vote will be SO curtailed
as to affect the representation in the
next national convention.
