A PROBABILITY THAT TWO MORE

Their Owners Awaiting the Outcome of An Earlier Contest in Which They Are Signed.

Los Angeles, oct. 31.--With three motor cars entered for the 45O mile race, from Los Angeles to Phoenix, for The Arizona Republican cup. the event is an assured success. The start will be made at midnight, on November 7th and Tobasco l, the Kissel Kar roadster, the Fillmore Bulldog and the White steamer, Black Bess. will line up.
 Immediately after the arrival of A. J. Smith, in Phoenix, last week he wired John s. Mitchell. who is repre- senting the MaricOpa Automobile club that he would enter his ear. Next morning D. B. Rose posted an entry fee of $500 and Captain H. D. RyUs posted another of $500 for Black Bess." |"
 Ralph Hamlin wishes to enter the Franklin and R. J. Leavitt the Locomo- bile, but both men are waiting until after the 24 hour race, as they have cars entered in that event and do not want to put up an entry fee and then find that the cars had been disabled.

THE ROCHESTER RECEPTION
Candidate Says That Bryan's Growing Months are Au- gust and September After Which He Begins to Wither In a Cold Popular Frost.

Rochester, Oct. 31.-After weeks campaigning in New York City and state, which ended here tonight with a duplicate of the rousing demonstra- tions which have inspired him wherever he went, William H. Taft, the republi- can presidential candidate, made this statement to the Associated Press.
 The state ot New York is the most republican of the United States, even more republican than Pennsylvania There is every indication through the part of the state above the Bronx that there will be a majority for the repub lican ticket nearly equal to that of Roosevelt four years ago.
 "Th- democratic majority in the city of New York will probably not exceed rocco. This will be overcome by the republican vote above the Bronx with such an overwhelming force as to give the republican ticket in the Empire state clear majority of from 100000 upward" This roseate view of the candidate has been reflected in each of the 10 speeches he has made today.

DUAL NEBRASKA CLAIMS.
Neither Side Can See How 1t Can
 Loose.

Lincoln, Oct. 21.-Both the demo- cratic and republican state committees practically closed their campaigns in Nebraska, and both are confident that they will carry the state. The repub- lican committee is more sanguine now than it was two weeks ago. when it admitted ii had hard fight. Chair man Keller would make no statement Tafts expected majority in the state, but he believes the vote will closely resemble that of 1900. when Mckinley carried the state by 1000.
 Chairman Allen of the democratic committee is confident that his broth er-in-law. Wm. J. Bryan. will carry the state. The democrats this year have the most complete organization they ever had. They state that the bank guaranty plank has caught many votes and claim 95 per cent of the labor vote.

BRYAN'S HAPPIEST DAY
He Spent in Hammering PIutcrats,
 Presidents and Intending Presidents

Chicago, Oct 31-"ThiS has been one of the greatest days I have experi- enced in the campaign" remarked Wm. J. Bryan as he stepped from his special train tonight at Englewood, after a full day in Indiana. Crowds of man. moth proportions and unlimited cheer ing were the tributes of the hoosiers to the democratic candidate. He fre- quently left the train and was fairly mobbed by his enthusiastic admirers. Nor was MT. Bryan alone in the ova- tiOns. Mrs. Bryan came in fer her share and was deluged with flowers and even with luncheon baskets.
 Virtually ending his campaign today, MT. Bryan entered into the spirit of the occasion with great earnestness and intensity. He made attacks on Messrs. Rockefeller. Carnegie, Harri- man, Roosevelt and Taft. Even be- assembled at Union City, his first speaking place and patiently awaited the time for him to make his appear ance.
 Early as it was, he began hammering away at the financiers mentioned. the president and Taft, and he kept it up throughout the day. He found new thoughts in the speech of Taft last night at Buffalo. denying that ROcke- feller was supporting him in the cam paign. He felt that if Taft objected to the oil king he should get out a writ of injunction against him.

New York, Oct. 31.-The rival man. agers of the republican and demo- cratic national campaigns issued to- day their final claims fo victory. Against 325 electoral votes claimed by Chairman Frank H. Hitchcock for Taft, Chairman Norman Mack set an estimate of 333 votes for Bryan. Chairman Mack includes Maryland. Delaware and Missouri in the solid south" and claims seventeen states classified by Hitchcock as sure for Taft" These include such states as New York, Ohio, Indiana, Kansas, Nebraska, etc.
 New York state is claimed tonight by both old parties for their respect i've national and state tickets. The republican managers are apparently confident that Taft will have a sub stantial plurality and in the last week have grown more bold in their claims as to the reelection of Gov ernor Hughes. although they admit his vote will fall far short of that of Taft. Republican State Committee man Ward went so far today as to say that Judge Taft will carry Great CT New York
 The democrats have claimed ever since the re-nomination of Governor Hughes in the face of opposition from certain leader sof his own party that the governor would be defeated. They are willing to admit that he has gained during the last two weeks of the campaign. but they assert that Lieutenant Governor Chanler will be victorious by a large plurality. and Bryan will receive the electoral vote of the state by a comfortable margin.
 Democratic Chairman Mack, in giv- ing his forecast tonight. declared that it meant a landslide for Bryan. He said:
 Tn my estimate of the electoral votes for Bryan, I include in addition to the 169 votes of the solid south. the following states: Colorado ,. Con necticut :, New York 39. Kansas 10, New Jersey 12, North Dakota f, Ore gon 4. Rhode Island 1, West Virginia 7. Wisconsin 13, Wyoming 3, Indiana 15. Idaho 2, Montans, g. Ohio %, Nebraska s, South Dakota 4, total 164.
 California and Illinois I place in the doubtful column but from reports have received from these states. the chances are extremely in favor of their being included in the land slide for Bryan"
 Republican headquarters, national and state. maintained today the same confident attitude of the last two weeks. When shown the statement of MT. Mack. charging that negotia- tiope had bapn oOipo On for ten days between Chairman Hitchcock for the

ARIZONA, MORNING. NOVEMBER

Judge Taft had cordial receptions in Elmira, Waverly. Oswego. Lestershire, Binghamton. Whitneys Point, Mara thon, Cortland and Ithaca.
 In this city his presence inspired a great parade which he reviewed before going to the convention hall where thousands paid their tribute to his presence in a demonstration of enthu- siasm equalling that of any audience the candidate has addressed. After the meetings here Judge Taft left on a special train for Buffalo. where he will spend Sunday with Mrs. Taft.
 Bryan always won in August and September" said Judge Taft in his speech today. This grows out of the character of the policies he advocates. They are always plausible. they are always useful for the first two months on the stump, and then the power of the logical analysis of American voters begins to bear in the long educational campaign that precedes the presidential election and scatters his policies to the wind, as they ought to be scattered"

ILLINOIS SAFE.
At Least So Far As the National
 Ticket Is Concerned.

Chicago. Oct 31-The campaign in Illinois will not close until the voting is finished. While it is generally con- ceded that the state Is safe for the re- publican national ticket, there is a keen fight over the governorshpi be- tween Governor Charles s. Deneen, re- publican. and Adlai E. Stevenson, the democratic leader.
 It is admitted by the republican leaders that their gubernatorial candle date will run considerably behind the national ticket. and the democrats cOnfidentially claim that their man will be elected. Although the leaders of both parties make more or less sweeping claims of success there seems to be no reason to doubt that Illinois will choose the republican na- tional ticket, the republican legisla- ture which will choose a successor to Albert J. Hopkins for the United States senate. and the probability is that they will succeed in electing the head of their state ticket, although this is not certain.
 It is believed however, that the ma

The Varying Estimates of the Man.
 agers in Charge.

Chicago, Oct. 31.-At both the dem- ocratic and republican headquarters in this city today statements sum- ming up their respective views on the coming election were issued. John F. Lamb. in charge of the demo- cratic headquarters in the absence of Chairman Mack, made public an esti- mate in which he claimed 295 cleo toral votes safe for Bryan. placed no votes in the doubtful column and admitted that seventy eight votes, or six states which he named were safe ly republican. Mir. Lambs views of the safely democratic state would give the election to Bryan by 295 electoral votes against 1SS for Mir Taft.
 William Hayward, secretary of the republican national committee, in a signed statement. admitted the exist ence of only four doubtful states in what he designated as the western division.
 Tn my judgment" said Mir. Hay ward. there are but four doubtful states in the western division, Ne vada, Colorado. Montana and Mis- souri. By this I don't mean that we have no chance in Oklahoma, but not as good a chance as in the four states just named. Of these Colorado and Montana are reasonably safe for Taft. The prairie states west of the Missouri river, as well as Wyoming. Utah and some of the mountain states and all of the Pacific coast states, are and have been surely re- publican since the beginning of the campaign. There has never been any real doubt in the minds of anyone about IHinoIs, Wisconsin, Michigan, Minnesota or Iowa. MT Bran will certainly lose his own state. Person ally, I have never had any doubt of Indiana and have not now"
 Mir. Hayward's statement in closing claims New York. Ohio. and West Virginia and states that the doubt experienced concerning Maryland and Kentucky is all in favor of a re- publican victory In MT. Lambs state ment the following states alone are admitted to be safely republican: Maine. Massachusetts. Michigan. New Hampshire. Pennsylvania and Yer mont. The following he places in the doubtful column: California, Connecticut. Delaware. Idaho, Illinois, Iowa. Minnesota, North Dakota. Rhode Island. Utah. Washington, Wis consin and Wyoming.

 pluralities of $500 Bryan and 5000 for the state ticket are claimed with the qualifying statement, that the alleged action of the church officials all over me state in urging the Mormons to vote for Taft may have considerable effect.

New, are looked upon as the advance guard of great army of iron miners to be placed at work in Nevada copper mines. They are under contract to work for S2.50 and board, a scale much below the prevailing wage in Ely.
 Yet George c. Butler. who is di reeting the party, anticipates no dem Onstration on the part of the union miners when the Finlanders reach their destination. Butler explains that they are not strike breakers, but are imported to meet a labor shortage.

 Governor Kibbev was the first speaker and he was at his best. He reviewed the qualifications of the can didates and called attention to their especial fitness for the offices for which they had been nominated. They were men he said e proved capability and integrity. They had managed their own affairs well and that was a guaranty that they would manage well the affairs of the people. None of them were politicians seeking popular favor but were inspired only to the perfOr- nance of a public duty.
 At this point the governor illustrated what he meant by saying that the candidates would not unWOrthily seek
