Mr Cleveland Talks About
 RoOScVeIPs Letter
ADMIRATION FOR CORTELYOU
Former President Thinks He Was a Fine Man, But Hac Made a Ms take In Taking Manage
 ment of Campaign.

New York November 5.-The New York Times tomorrow will print a state ment from President Grover Cleveland. This, the Times will say, was given out in answer to request that Mr. Cleve- land express his views on the recent let ter of President Roosevelt and the prev ious remarks of Judge Parker. The state ment follows:
 q see that Mir. Roosevelt In his state ment published this morning in defense of himself and Mir. Cortelyou, speaks of the latter as having been my executive clerk in the White House. He might have gone further and spoken of my high opinion of MT. Cortelyou, amounting to personal attachment.
 From this arises my condemnation of the action of MT. Roosevelt in putting him at the head of the republican na- tional committee, and this has nothing to do with the question as to whether or not MT. Cortelyou has or has not im- properly or otherwise extorted or obtain ed contributions from trusts and com binations for campaign purposes. With this contention I have nothing to do.
 My complaint Is of a different sort.
 Example of Good Influence.
 "Nr Cortelyou before his selection as the head of the partisan national commit tee, with all it implies, was prominently the best illustration the country afforded of the use and benehcient operation of civil service reform. Without influence or powerful friends he earned a humble place in the public service through civil service examination. He rose step by step through his own merits to positions of the most delicate and confidential char acter and when he was put at the head of an important and new department ot the government and took a place among the members of the Presidents cabinet, I believe there was not a right-thinking man in the United tSates who did not re- ioice in his advancement, as well earned; and I am sure every sincere civil service reformer was gratlfied by the opportunity afforded to point to so convincing justi- fcation of the reform.
 "The last place his friends or the friends of the civil service reform would have thought of as one he could appro- priately occupy was chairman of the re- publican national committee, and the last thing they could have expected to do was to resign his well-earned and benefiting cabinet position to take such place.
 Loss to the Service.
 T regard distinct loss to the cause of civil service reform that he should have gravltated to the duties and work so far and so distinctly removed from any relationship to this reform, or to the best thing In politics.
 Tt is in my belief most unfortun- ately, that when Mir Cortelyou assumes again cabinet duties, as 1t seems to be conceded, he will after the election be given the place not in illustration of civil service reform, but in payment for the work performed, and to say the least of 1t, the most suspicious partisan service GROVER CLEVELAND.

Emory Smith referred to the letter of President Roosevelt in answer to the charge made by Judge Parker that Chair man Cortelyou had secured funds from the trusts by improper methods. He said that the Presidents letter was conclusive and decisive. and that there Is no Amer lean with red blood in his veins who does not absolutely believe in the personal honor of the President, who had not only scotched but kill the slimy democratic serpent.
 In his address to the democratic meet ing Senator German declared that the charges made by Judge Parker as to the collecting of campaign funds by Cor telyou were true, challenging him or Treasurer Bliss to deny that there was "a meeting of the great captains of in- dustry four weeks ago. at which nearly

New York. November 6.-(speclal)-The Herald this morning publishes the tol- lowing summary of a poll it has just made of the doubtful states;
 With the presidential canvass Virtuahy finished the betting on the election or Roosevelt Is 5 to l. and surface indica- tions point to his success at the polls on Tuesday next. The democratic managers however, are confidently claiming the election.
 The Herald has collected information from the so-called doubtful states as to the manner in which the campaign is clos ing, and there are few changes rom the situation of a week ago.
 New York state Is in the balance stili on the presidency, and the Herald de- clines to predict The state Is apparently strongly democratic on the governorship. It is possible for MT. Higgins to be de- feated and for all his associates on the ticket to be elected
 Both Parties Very Aggressive.
 Both parties have been very aggressive during the last week of the campaign, and thlS mas aQueu lO llS llNtlNoh tii NAA~ --e'- The sensational passages between Presi- dent Roosevelt and Judge Parker have placed the trust issue to the foremost in the battle, and the tendency is more doubtful.
 The democrats are better supplied with money in this state than had been eH- pected. The amount they have aValia- ble for use on election day is placed at S35O. .OOO The republicans have more mo ney and it will be battle royal m the rural counties. The republican man agers are claiming New York state for Roosevelt by SS,OO0 and for Higgins by 10000. The democratic county estlmtes claim the state for Parker by ll'OOO ana for Herrick by more than 6OO0o.
 Democrats expect Parker to carry New York city by 1250O0 plurality and Herrick by 149000.
 The New Jersey Fight.
 The democrats of New Jersey are much encouraged and fully expect to elect Charles c. Black governor. There Is a stiffeniug of the republican vote on the presidency and the indicated majority for Roosevelt in the state is now placed at 2s,sOO. The indicated plurality foi Stokes. the republican candidate for gov ernor is 370O This is a drop of flfty pei cent in a week and shows that the ueHi' ocratic campaign Is growing.
 Judge Parkers tour of Connecticut has given the democracy of that state mucr encouragement, and the state Is more doubtful than at any time during the campaign
 The indications. however, are that the electoral vote of Connecticut will be cast for Roosevelt and Fairbanks.

 Indiana battle-ground.
 Indiana is still the scene of the greatest hattie in the middle west. Both parties are hard at work anu are well supplied with campaign funds. The state IS placed in the republican column.

 Maryland is still democratic, and the returns will show some congressional gains for the democrats.
 Delaware is probably republican, and Rhode Island where there Is a great state campaign In progress. is believed to be republican on the national issue and dem ocratic on the governorship.
 There Is a republican drift indicated from the Rocky Mountain states.
 The Electoral Vote.
 The Herald's estimate of the electoral vote Is: Roosevelt. 264; Parker, 159; doubtful, probably republican. II; doubt ful. probably democratic, 3; New York un- certain on the presidency. g.
