RESULT IN KENTUCKY
The State Will Likely Go
Democratic.
MR., HAGAR T AXIS
DEMOCRATS PREDICT FROM $4,000
TO 10000 MAJORITY.
Republicans May Get One Out of the
Eleven Representatives
in Congress.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
LOUISVILLE, KY, November 7.-"Par-
ker and Davis will carry Kentucky by be-
tween 1900 and 10000 majority. 1t GER
tainly will not be less than $4,000 and
should be over 10000 if the workers have
done their duty. We will carry every con-
gressional district in the state except the
eleventh. says Samuel w. Hager chair
man of the democratic state campaign COM
mttee.
"In my judgment the prospects in Ken
lucky for the republicans are very bright
Under fair vote Kentucky should be safe
ly republican by from 1900 to $4,000 ma
jority. A republican representative should
be returned, not only from the eleventh
district, but as we'll from the third, fifth
and ninth. If the eighth and tenth dis
tricts are carried by the democrats, 1t Will
be by considerably reduced majorities. And
in both of these districts the republicans
have fighting chance. A strong fight Is
being made by the republicans to send Ap-
plegate to Congress from the sixth dis
trict" says Richard p Ernst. chairman of
the republican state campaign committee.
1t is more than probable that the esti-
mate of Chairman Hager Of the democratic
campaign committee will be found nearer
correct when the ballots have been counted;
that Kentucky will give Parker majority
fabout 1900 and that the eleventh will
be the only congressional district which
the republicans will carry. This seems to
be the view of the best-informed politicians,
who however, admit that the republicans
are not out of the running by any means
In the third and fifth districts. while they
have a fighting chance in the ninth
The republicans are counting strongly on
the help of the populst vote. especially in
the third and ninth districts.
The democrats are not doing much talk
ing at present. but simply claim the entire
state and the ten congressional districts,
| the eleventh being admittedly republican.
In the past week considerable ginger has
| been injected into the campaign, and both
| sides have been making a strong fight.
| Nothing outside of a landslide can deprive
Parker and Davis of the state, and such a
| condition would be a great surprise to the
| best-posted politicians
| 1t is safe to say that the next congress
| siOnal delega ton from Kentucky will be
| made UP as follows:

big democratic majority, but the only real
fight in the state is in the ninth congress

the present republican representative from
that district. is making a life and death
struggle to he returned over J. c. Wysor,
democratic nominee. 1t is estimated that
the majority for Parker and Davis In the
state will be upward of 10000, and some
think it may reach as much as $1,000. This
is the first presidential election since the
new state constitution has been in force,
and the speculation to majorities in fig
ures is just little uncertain. The republi-
cans have expressed some hope of carrying
at least three of the Virginia congressional
districts, the fifth, ninth and tenth, but it
seems to be conceded all sides on the
eve of the election that the democrats will
elect at least nine out of the ten represen-
tatives from Virginia, and there are some

WAGGAMAN'S ANSWER.
Response to Petition for Accounting in
the Tumelty Case.

Thomas E. Waggaman, today in the Pro-
bate court. filed his answer to the petition
of James A. Tumelty, calling on him to file
his account as executor of the estate of
Hugh Tumelty, deceased. In addition to
the answer Mr.. Waggaman submitted his
statement for an account and vouchers for
disbursements made.
According to Mr. Waggaman there never
has been any desire on his part to post
pone an accounting, he merely awaiting the
decision of the devisees under the will on
the question of raising money in order to
avoid a sale of certain real estate. Mr..
Waggaman adds that he made known to
the devisees the fact that there were out
standing claims against the estate, and
that the personality having been practical
ly exhausted some arrangement would
have to be made by those who took the
real estate under the will to raise money.
The outstanding claims says Mr. Wagga-
man, consist of note due J. A Tumelty of
81, 600; $500 due him for lot In cemetery
and masses; disputed claim of James
Coleman for $40 and an attorneys fee.
The court is informed by Mr.. Waggaman
that the administration of the estate has
been most troublesome, and that he has
made every effort to carry out the wishes
of the devisees and act for their best In
tereSts.
1t is the expectation Of Mr.. Andrew r.
Bradley, referee in bankruptcy in the Wag-
gaman case, that a trustee or trustees Will
be elected at the meeting Oh tne Creditors
to be held at the City Hall Saturday fore
noon, reports to the contrary notwithstand-
ing To a reporter for The Star Mr.. Brad
ley said this afternoon that there would

ton.

Office today. 1t was that of Mary Sullivan

List of Notes No. l..
The opinion was expressed today by a
well-posted attorney that those creditors
holding securities on List No. 1 would be
allowed to vote at Saturdays meeting for

MUSE WOOS ASHMAN.
Subject of Verse at Hand of Anony.
nous Writer.

1t is seldom that a subject so practical
and prosaic as collector of ashes affords
inspiration for the indicting of verses. 1t
Is generally supposed that the muse de-
clines to be wooed except when caressed
by the tender hand of poetic sentiment and
influenced by some subject out of the COM
monplace. From postal card received by
the District Commissioners this morning II
appears that a resident on Rhode Island

succeeded in Familiarity chuckng the muse
under the chin to such extent that she

And other things all DER the floor;
DO not fear, We have them here galore.
Mr.. Ashman, please let us see you next

Usually complaints relative to the failure
of the collector to remove the ashes are
couched in different kind of language lam

no dallylng and no sentiment Imperative

form of complaints as to the collection

that the postal card will be rushed post
haste to the ash contractor with a request
that the offense be not repeated
Another postal card received by the Com
missioners today tells the authorities that
Mr. Ashman passed through the alley in
the rear of 1926 B street northeast and
'haughtily ignored the ash cam in the back
yard of these premises. The writer asks
the Commissioners in all frankness If this
naughty ignoring of an ash can by the
collector is right.
Still another postal card correspondent
who resides at 624 New Jersey avenue
writes of the failure of the ashman to re-
move three cans full of ashes and waste
paper. Such service. says the writer is not
satisfactory. but very much like what it
has been on an average in the past.
Two or three other complaints as to the
ash collection service were received today
from residents in various parts of the Dis
trict. but the poetical complaint stands by
itself unique in form.

Wisconsin antitrust law so far II ap-
piled to this case.
Jewelry Seized as Dutiable.
The court today refused to grant a writ
of certiorari in the case of Phyllis +. Dodge
agt the United States the effect being to
affirm the decision of the circuit court OF

favorable to the government. The case in
volved the seizure of $4,000 worth of jew

The firm entered a plea of a discharge in
bankruptcy but the Illinois state courts re-
fused to consider it and entered judgment
for the damages claimed. That verdict
reversed by today's decision. In his opinion
Justice Brown said that the only federal
question involved is. whether the supreme
court of Illinois gave the proper effect to
the discharge in bankruptcy. He held that
1t did not, and therefore reversed the judg-
ment of that court.
