delivered his message to congress yes
terday. In mentioning the progress
that has been made In paying off the
SO per cent of what is due the veterans
the total amounting to $2S,500,O00,
President Palma asked congress to de-
eide in what manner the remaining
half should be raised or to suggest
other mode of settlement The prest-
dent called attention to the fact that
the Platt amendment would not per-
NIT Cuba to incur debt unless the Or
binary receipts Of the treasury were
sufficient to pay off the sinking fund
and interest, adding that the present
sources above the ordinary expenses
are practically absorbed by the first
loan, Cuba cannot create a new loan
except thru increasing taxes. The
president suggested that the difficulty
might be obviated by the creation of a
perpetual debt bearing interest at 8 per
cent per annum, which the government
could be authorized to sink after twen
ty-five years or to liquidate sooner If
the means became available.
President Palma submitted the bud
get of expenses for next year. amount
ing to $19,00o,000, of which he proposed
TO devote $2,500,000 for the construc.
ton of new roads and bridges.
President Palma congratulated con-
gress upon the country's tranquility
which he attributes to the patriotism
and confidence Of the people in the

New York, Nov. Selection betting
took precedence Of trading in stocks
in the activities of the curb market

general result, on the presidential re-
suit in this state and on the govern
orship contest. The odds during the
market hours ruled pretty steadily at

on Roosevelt carrying the state, and 10
to on Herrick, although one early
bet was made on the general result at
6 to /, Dewitt Rosenheim placing
$4,000 on Roosevelt to $4,000, put up
by Edward Stern on Parker. Bunnell
Buchanan & Co. announced that men
in Virginia and North Carolina had
sent them $4,000 to bet on Roosevelt
at 5 to /, but they did not succeed in
placing the money. Sheffield & Nc

Conservative Estimates Place
Total Amount Spent by Both
Parties at $4,000, 900
BIG SUMS SPENT IN NEW YORK
Republican National Committee Spent
Approximately s., 1000, 900 While Dem

ses Were Over s2,ooo,ooo-Larse
Sums In State Campaigns,

New York, Nov. S.-Conservative es-
Inmates of the total cost to both great
parties of the political campaign OF
1904 place the amount at $22,500,O00.
OF this sum the republican national
committee will have spent about So
100000 and the democratic national
committee approximately $2,O00,O00.
The state committees will have spent
the difference between the total OF
these sums and the grand total.
The record OF campaign finance
shows that the combined state commit
tees usually spent 81 to every 81 ex-
pended by the national committee. This
wear, because of the stiff fights waged
in several states, the proportion will
be increased to about AZ to 1.
To the grand total might be added
a large sum spent by candidates who
have paid their own expenses during
costly tours of the state and country.
Where Money Goes.
Much OF the democratic committees
money has been used In establishing
organizations in states which had been
largely neglected in former campaigns
and to meet republican aggressiveness
n Indiana and states in the far west
To Indiana alone the democratic nat
ional committee sent upward Of $780,
900. The state committee added a gen.
erous sum to this amount, all Of which
Mr.. Taggart has used to get out his
vote.
The republican national committee
has sent hundreds of thousands Of dol
lars into the upstate counties Of New
York, and Governor Oden spent in the
neighborhood Of $25O,ooo perfecting his
org snization in New York City and
arranging his card index of voters.
Into Yves. Virginia money has pour
ed from both national headquarters
and from the state headquarters as
well. A golden stream has flowed In
to Connecticut, New Jersey, Wiscon-
sin, Rhode Island and the mountain
states from both republican and demo-
cratic sources. Accurate details Of the
expenditure cannot of course be OBJ
tanned, but neither party denies that it
has expended hundreds of thousands OF
dollars in all the doubtful states.

Now York. Fiaht.

The New York democratic state
committee, in its effort to perfect an
organization in this state, spent the
bulk of its money and obtained a
generous contribution from the ma
tional committee. Realizing that the
party lacked machine of any kind In
many parts Of the state, William S.
Rode Of the bureau Of organization set
about building up an organization that
would be useful. Mr.. Rode discovere !
that this work would necessitate an
enormous expense, greater than the
committee could ordinarily afford. 1t
was decided to continue the work, how
ever, and the amount of money used
has been estimated at from $500, 900 to
100000.
Careful estimates place the total sum
spent by the republican party in this
state between 100000 and $1,000 900.
In New Jersey and Connecticut the
managers Of the democratic campaign
discovered an almost utter lack of or
| ganization and enormous sums were
| sent into those places to build up a
machine.
In West Virginia the bulk Of the
democratic campaign expense has been
borne by the state committee. Indiana
was about the only state which was
thoroughly organized. 1t has been es-
timated that the two national commit
tees this year have disbursed 100000
to campaign orators for salaries and
expenses.
Printing Bill Large.
| The printing bills have footed up
more than 100000. The bare cost of
maintaining headquarters is some s4,-
900 to $4,000 week, exclusive Of sal
aries paid to the heads of departments
and their assistants.
Costly though it has been, the
campaign of 1904 will not break the
record. The expenditures in 1900 were
about equal in amount to those Of this
year, and in 1896 the fund Of the repub-
lican national committee, of which SEN
ator Hanna was chairman, was ap-
proximately $6,OOO.00O. or more than
the sum used this year by both nation
al committees. 1t was during the cam
paign Of 1896 that the republican party
conducted its so-called Campaign CT
education" which cost fabulous sum.
Statistics collected by magazine
and printed four years ago, showed
the total expense Of the national COM
mittees in the campaign Of 1864 to have
been only 100000. In 1872 this sum
rose to 100000, in 1884 to $1,5O0.000
and in 1902 to $2.000,00O.
