THE. VOTE OF NEW YORK
Official Canvass Gives Roosevelt
Plurality in the Entire State of
1852.

Albany, N. Y; Dec. 17.-Roosevelt's
plurality in New York at the last cleo
ton was 1850, as shown by the Of
fetal returns certified today by the
board of state canvassers. That Of
Higgins for governor was SO,5C0. Par
ker ran nearly $4,000 behind Herrick,
democratic candidate for governor. The
highest elector on each presidential
ticket is taken as the standard in the
figures which follow relating to the
choice of presidential electors:
Highest elector for Roosevelt re-
ceived a total of ,S59,553.
Votes for Parker, 6S3,9S1.
Other party totals are:

gan,7 socialist labor, 9.127; Watson

failed to cast the necessary total of
10000 votes for governor loses it's

Cotton, S. D., Dec. 16.--The people Of
this town, the terminus of the South
Dakota Central railroad, are confronted
with that conspicuous factor of all

Because of that it is split into two
factions, one favoring the saloon and
the other opposed to it. with the lat
:er IN the majority Recently some par
ties who intended establishing saloon
purchased a lot preparatory to erecting
building. A petition was circulated
to which the necessary number of
names was secured.
When these facts became known the
antt-saloon faction held largely-at-
tended indignation meeting. Resolu-
lions We're adopted protesting against
the opening of the saloon and commit

necessary to prevent the saloon open

prices generally lower. Prices broke

1t is no exaggeration to say Wall
street began the day with more anxiety
than it has shown since the May panic
of 1901 Reasons for this feeling We're
plenty. chief among them being the
absolute collapse of the market at yes
terday's close, revealing weak spots in
unlocked for places.
A great majurity of brokerage houses
had their clerical forces at work till
late last evening; some of them worked
long after midnight. examining ac
counts and issuing imperative calls to
customers for more margins.
All Sorts Of Rumors.
Almost every conceivable sort of ru-
NOR was in the air this morning, but
none of them could be traced to any
tangible foundation.
1t is an undoubted fact that the mon
eyed interests are well prepared for
any emergency. The floor of the stock
exchange was crowded with excited
members. the greatest crowds being as
around Amalgamated Copper
and Steel trading posts, where the
brokers fairly mauled one another in
their efforts to execute orders. Most of
these were to sell lat the market
The scenes In the brokerage and com
mission Offices were especially animated
and exciting, they being crowded with
customers, many from out of town, APP
feeling it was to their inter
estS to be In close touch with the stu
alton. Telegraph operators were send
and it seemed as If the country at large
was waiting on Wall street.
Powerful Support Appears.
After the first hour of disastrous
breaks in prices, powerful support be-
gan to manifest itself-there were spas
modic rallies all through the list. and
the bears rushed to cover.
Amagamated Copper was carried
three points over last nights close and
practical gains of a point and over were
recorded. Trading was extremely fever
ish for time, but by 10 o'clock the
market settled down to n queter tone.
Occasional reactions occurred during
the afternoon, but the general ten
dency was still upward. By 2 o'clock
stocks of all classes We're quoted point
or more above yesterdays closing.

Standard Oil Heads Combine to Bolster
Up the Market

New York, Dec. IA majority of
the stocks were lower than last night
on the opening Of quotations today.
but there. $was a good showing, and
gains and fluctuations We're not violent
1t is learned that at a secret con-
ference of the great moneyed interests
of the country held IN the Waldorf; a
gigantic pool with unlimited capital
was formed to back up the market and
carry on the fight against Thomas
Lawson.
William G.. Young, of Chicago, who
is closely allied with A. P. Heinze the
copper king, and who is said to have
an option on the Amalgamated stock
held by Heinze, was made the standard
bearer of this great combination.
Among the interests which are mem
toned as being represented at this
meeting are Standard Oil. Steel and
Amalgamated Copper. r. Donnelly, of
the Chicago stock exchange. was pres
ent at the meeting and is said to have
represented the interests of the United
States, steel corporation.
Young admits His Mission.
Mr.. Young. who is stopping at the
Hotel Astor, announced, that he was
here to take charge of the fight against
Lawson. Thursday he went to Boston
and spent Friday and Saturday in con-
ference with, the author, of ."Frenzied
Finance" in an effort to reach an agree
lnent. When all effort on this line
failed he returned to New York, and
the meeting of the greatest money
powers in this country was held
The head of the new pooh announced
that he Intended to fight Mr.. Lawson
with his own weapons, and that adver-
tisements would appear in the newspa-
pers in answer to the advertisements
of Mr.. Lawson. 1t is said that Lawson
has been spending $4,000 week on
advertising, but this sum has come
back to him many times over. A man
close to Mr.. Young is authority for
the statement that in the past week
Lawson has cleaned up S1,550,000 and

is TOO CRUEL TO
PAUPER CHILDREN
Sensational Charges May Be
Brought Against Overseer
of Poor Farm.
SENTIMENT is DIVIDED
Facts However, Seem to Affirm Re-
ports of Almost lnhuman Punish
ment Which at Times Has
Been Inflicted.

Pukwana. S. D., Dec. 16.-The SEN
sation OF the hour here is the reported
cruelties inflicted on the children at
The county poor farm. The overseer
has recently made joking reference to
the toughness of some of his charges.
One little boy in particular was re-
ported to the overseer as having stolen
an orange at school and when accused
Of it refused to confess. The oVerseer
broke up rawhide whip on him and
still failing to get a confession proceed
ed to tie him up by the thumbs In
zeal approved Spanish inqusition
style.
An investigation Is on foot and the
matter will be brought to the notice OF
the grand jury as soon as the states
attorney elect is in office. There IS
likely to be somewhat of division OF
sentiment on the merits of the case
before 1T Is ended.

Navy Department.,

unprecedented OVSTS Arc WAGE TO
Navy Department.
Washington, Dec. 17.-Unprecedently low
bids were offered for the construction of
the battleship New Hampshire and the
armored cruisers Montana and North
Carolina, proposals for which were opened
at the navy department at noon in the
presence Of representatives of ship build
ing companies from the Pacific and Allan
tic coasts.
1t is probable that an official announce
ment will award the contract for the
cruisers to the Newport News Shipbuild-
ing company for $3,750,OO0 each, and the
battleship to the New York Shipbuilding
company for sS,74s,Ooo. those being the
lowest bids offered as not more than two
ships can he awarded to one company. The
lowest aggregate bids for these three ships
were exactly $1,STOO0 less than the ag
gregate lowest bids for three sister ships
a little over a year ago, a reduction of II
per cent. in price. The navy department.
while gratified at the reduction. is unable
to assign any reason for it, except the fat
that the shpbuilders are badly in need
of work,

Mr.. Lawson fathered one stock
Amalgamated Copper. He got rid of

made money out of it, but the people

ana think he was responsible for the
stump more than any other man.
Through his advice the public lost the
