WATERBURY RECKLESS
Several Sports" Raise $500 and Cover
 New Haven Money.

The announcement made yesterday in these columns that there was a roll of S1,000 here to be bet that Judge Robertson would defeat George Leav. ems Lilley for the governorship next Tuesday has stirred up the monkeys" in Waterbury, The American last night came out with a long article on the announcement, saying that the sporting citizens of that place were after the man behind the thousand, but couldn't learn his address,
 Just to show how much sporting blood exists in the Brass City relative to the outcome of the election, 1t might be stated that yesterday the S1, ,000 mentioned in the Journal Courier was again offered at even money to Waterbury citizens through a well-known Center street brokerage house, and the best that could be done was to get a pool bet of S6O0 No group of men in the Brass City could be found willing to cover the entire thousand, and after good deal of skrmshing several "sports" pooled together and wired that they would cover $500 of the New Haven coin They demanded even money. This leaves s400 yet to be covered, and 1t looks as though the New Haven gen. tleman offering the money would have to look elsewhere than to Waterbury for a taker

CLAIM 227 SEATS IN NEXT CONGRESS Republicans Give Opposition 164 in Confident Forecast
 of an Unusual
 Election.
HITCHCOCK TALKS TAFT
Montana Not So Doubtful and There's Fighting Chance in Kentucky and ennessee-.Prediction
 Out To-day.

New York, Oct. 29 Representative Henry c, Loudenslager, New Jersey secretary of the national republican congressional committee. who has been in charge of the New York headquar- ters of the committee during the cam paign, gave out his estimate today of the complexion of the house of repre- sentatiyes in the 61st congress.
 From the several thousand letters received, said Mir. Loudenslager "and from personal interviews with pollticl- ans and other observers from all sec- tions of the country, I am convinced that a conservative estimate of the po- litlcal complexion of the next house is 227 republicans and 16i democrats.
 T am confident that election results will give an increase in the number of republicans rather than a decrease This campaign has been a strange one In many respects, unusual conditions have existed in different sections anl while there will be some changes, the net result will, in my judgment, be as stated"
 Chairman Hitchcock of the republ,- can national committee said late today that he would probably give out his forecast of the electoral vote tomorrow afternoon. He said that the statement would include the doubtful as well as the certain states for both parties Mir Hitchcock is still of the opinion that Navada will be very close, but ne iS quite confident of Montana Tnforma- ton from leaders in Kentucky and Tennessee continue to reach headquar- ters and Is the effect that the repub- lcan candidate has more than a fight ing chance In those two states. While he feels sure about Maryland he think, the fight will be close there NIT. Hitch cock said that Mir. Taft was feeling Jn- usually happy last night as he wa; leaving the city as the result of the meetings which he had addressed here yesterday and particularly the great meeting which was held in Madison Square Garden last night. Mir Hitch cock said hat he had never seen any meeting equal to that of last night.
 The following forecast was made ai republican national headquarters to. day:
 Chairman Woodruff of the republl- Ican state committee: From the can vass made up the state, predict that Tafts plurality will be over 195o0O, ant Hughes will not fall below 15,o00 do not hesitate to say that he will pol bigger vote in Greater New York than his most sanguine friends now th.nk.

Boston, oct. 29,---Arguments upon the objections of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad com pany to the advancement of the bill in equity brought against the company by the United States government will be heard by the United States circuit court on November r. This was de- cided by three judges of the court af- ter a hearing to-day The bill seeks topreyont the proposed merger of the New Haven company with the Boston and Maine Railroad company and to compel the New Haven company to relinquish It's present holdings of trol- ley lines. Since 1t was filed by '. S. District Attorney Asa P, French in June, both the New Haven and Boston and Maine companies have filed de- murcrs.
 About a month ago District Attor- ney French filed a request in behalf Of Attorney General Bonaparte that the case be advanced to the circuit court of appeals, passing his claim on the recent act of congress called the eX- pcditing act. Counsel for the New Haven company objected to such ad- vanccment and to-day both sides met before Judge Coll Putnam and Low ell. t was the first time that the merger case has come up in open court

TAFT ENDORSES
 ONE GOVERNOR Outspoken Attitude Toward the New York State Ticket in Contrast to His Silence
 in Connecticut.
PRAISE FOR SHERMAN, TOO
Yesterdays Arguments to upstate Towns Pointed With New Comparisons and
 Phrases.

Syracuse. N. Y.. Oct 29--To this city fell, tonight the distinction of en- tertaining the two men most promin- ent in public interest To applauding thousands William H. Taft and Will ]. Bryan eXpounded respectively re- publican and democratic doctrine. Mir Taft spoke at two meetings and MT Bryan at four At each occasion the warning standing room only was displayed long before the hour of the meeting, and before the Dig men" arrived standing room was at a prem ium and hundreds were turned away. Also, in each instance, the presidential candidates were received with flatter- ins demonstrations and their speeches were frequently interrupted hy spon- taneous applause
 The Taft and Bryan specials arrived at the station at almost the same mo- ment. shortly after 6 o'clock.
 Judge Taft's arguments we've pointed with new phrases and Illustrated with new comparisons At Lyons, the first speech of the day, where hn talked to an audience which packed thc largest hall in town, he asserted that the de- feat of the silver heresy" in 1896 was a victory for good that was exceeded only by the victory of the Union armies in the civil war
 The next effort of the candidate was at Canandaigua, where he went ex- tensively into an analysis of govern ment through political parties. He preceded this with prediction that Governor Hughes would be elected, and compllmented the state on pos sessing such a man as the governor, whose fight was being made as the champion of a moral issue Judge Taft endorsed the whole state ticket and before finishing that part of his speech spoke with pride of being as sociated on the ticket with James s. sherman, the vice presidential can didate,
 The vital issue of this campaign, Judge Taft asserted. was whether or not the American people have been we'll served under the administrations of Presidents Mckinley and Roosevelt. q sometimes think" he explained, "that we fail to appreciate what gov erning means. If does not mean ora tory It does not mean the power of debate. It does mean the advance

MAY PLEAD GUILTY
Rumor That Men Charged With Shee-
 han Murder Will Do So.

It was reported last night that Ralph Carfaro and Joseph Campagnolo, the two men accused of murdering George Sheehan on August 15, will plead gull ty in the criminal side of superior court this morning No definite statement could be gleaned from any of the at- torneys for the defense but 1t was con ceded that if was possible that such action would be taken as the prisoners admit that the case Is very dark against them.
 In the event of their pleading guilty It will be to murder in the second de- gree as they cannot plead guilty to murder in the first degree, The sen tonce in the latter will be hanging if the trial continues and they are found guilty, If they plead guilty to the former charge, life sentence is the pen atty An account of the court pro- ceedings in the trial yesterday will be found on another page.

New York, Oct, Assignments d.

Sewell, United States senator from New Jersey, bearing on what Mir. Hearst called the indifference of Rep resentative John J. Gardner of New Jersey, chairman of the house commit tee on labor, Ito the demands of plain everyday worklngmen" figured in the speech; and two other letters were read by him, which, he explained were writ ten by NJ. D. King, auditor of the na- tional democratic committee, to D. M. Parry, president of the Manufacturing associations and to John Maxwell, sec retary to MT Parry, respectively MT. Hearst said that letters to Mir. Parry congratulated him upon his reelection as president of the Manufacturers as- sociation and upou the adoption at the associations convention of Mr. Pardy's "anti-labor union policies The letter to MT, Maxwell, MT Hearst further said. referred to the fight of the Manufacturers association as against the Typographical union and against the cight-hour bill in con gress."
 All four of the letters were cited by Mr. Hearst to emphasize his argument that the democratic and republican parties are inincal to labor The let ters from Mir Arcnbold to Senator Sewell follow

Members of Connecticut Phar- nlaoeutical Association In- dignant Over Latest
 Lilley Move.
PRESIDENT IS BLAMED
Robert Walker Accused of Using the Association for Political Pur- poses--What Mem-
 bers Say.

The anxiety of George, L. Lilley, the republican candidate for governor, and his campaign managers, even at the eleventh hour, is leading them into constant blundering, and blunder- ing, too, of kind that is filling the minds of laboring and business men with increasing indignation. Hot up- on the issuing of the labor pamph- let" in which he claims Ito have voted in congress for labor measures which the Congressional Record shows he did not vote for comes the news of circular that has aroused the drug gists of the state and may cause serious rupture In the Connecticut Pharmaceutical association.
 The circular is a plea for Lilley and asks the proprietors to hand 1t to their clerks The letters in which it was mailed contained Lilley pastors and the whole affair savers of politi- cal trick, The circular Is signed by the president, Robert Walker and John B. Ebbs, both of Waterbury. Lilley's home town, as well as by one cepresident and members of the executive committee.
 Never before has the association been dragged into politics. said one member last night, and the general indignation at the action of the off cers will probably lose Lilley an over- whelming majority of the druggists votes in the state. This may readily be understood when the fact Is stated that the matter was never submitted to the association for action.
 Although the circular is signed by several men 1t was evidently the pro- duct of one mind as extracts of it read, So, l say, wake up! Take an interest in politics and T feel sure Mir Lilley's election" etc.
 Here, it is quite plain, that one man has taken on his shoulders at the instigation, undoubtedly, of the Lilley managers, to speak for the whole as- sociation and the resentment of the members is consequently very strong.

PRAISE FOR JUDGE TAFT
Says Nominee Sympnthizes With Negro Troopers in Browns
 vile Affair.

United States Senator Morgan c. Bulkeley spoke to the colored repub- licans in Masonic hall in Webster street last night In spite of the rain the place was crowded, almost entire ly with members of the dark race with less than dozen caucaslons. The isles and rear of the room w-~ filled and there were dozens who were not able to get inside of the door at all and were forced to go home. As result of the crowd and the dampness of the night, the place became very stuffy.
 The topic in which the colored peo- pie were interested in was the Brownsville matter in which many negro members 5f the colored regi- ment stationed at that Texas town were dismissed from the service, many claiming that they had never had a fair trial in the military hear ing the men accused of promoting disorder were given The result was that Taft, who was then secretary of war, was blamed for the alleged ln- justice to the negroes by many mem- bers of the race. To smooth over diff faculties and explain various points in 1 the matter that are uNEonwn or not understood, Senator Rulkeley was ask ed to speak to the colored men fnere. His speech was looked forward to by the coored citizens as ne was one of the senators who opposed the action of President Roosevelt in dismssing the colored troops. He was, in fact, one of the leaders in the movement in opposing the president.
 Senator Bulkeley opened his talk with an outline of the history of the emancipation of the negroes and in connection with it. the birth and growth of the republican party In speaking of the Brownsville matter he said that the proposition would come before the next congress for consideration and disposal as Taft

 Pttsburg, Oct, 29, -- The Labor World out to-day contains the col- lowing;
 It can be safely said that the cam paign of Samuel Gompers in behalf of William J. Bryan has been a failure, so far as delivering the labor vote to Bryan is concerned. MT Gompers mas succeeded, however, in making so- cialists out of many working men, probably 7j per cent. of whom were formerly democrats, With view of ascertainng the effect of Samuel Gompers' campaign on the labor vote the Labor World has had a straw vote taken in eighty-slx mills and mines In West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, and Maryland with the following results;
 These mills and mines employ union men and sympatrizers with organized labor.
 West Virginia--Six mines and four mills were canvassed with the follow ing result Taft, 2,OSS; Bryan, 1,244; Debs, 50i; other candidates, S4,
 Pennsylvania -- Twelve mines and eight mills were canvassed with the following result Taft, S.562; Bryan 2,S01; Debs, 1,05S; other candidates 9.
 0hio-Fourteen mines and nine mills were canvassed with the follow Ing result: Taft, 6,926; Bryan, 4946i Debs, SAP; other candidates, 1O3
 Illinois Eight mines and three mills were canvassed with the follow ing result; Taft 45S9; Bryan. S,5SO; Debs, G41; other candidates. IS.
 Indiana Eleven mines and six mills were canvassed with the follow ing result: Taft 5.636; Bryan, 5,227; Debs, 914; other candidates, 2l
