New York, Nov. 2.--The municipal
campaign closed with each OF the
three candidates for the mayoralty
announcing that he will win. Though
Charles +. Murphy still refused to
make known the figures he received
from his district leaders, It is pretty
well known around the wigwain that
the returns they handed in predicted
the election of Judge Gaypor, but ex-
pressed some doubt on the election
of the resk of the city ticket and of
the Manhattan borough and New
York county tickets.
Otto T. Barnard, the Republican
candidate, said: Il Just want to re
peat what / said on Saturday, and
that is, We win.'"
Chairman Parsons Of the Republi-
can county committee said: Ban
nard will have plurality OF more
than 10000"
Congressman Bennett, looking still
further ahead, said: "Thc admins
tration that Mr.. Barnard will give to
the city will be of such an able char
acter that hereafter every candidate
for mayor will be nominated not be-
cause of his political affiliations, but
because of his business abilities"
Charles Gehrlng, manager Of the
Hearst campaign, said: Hearst will
run first. The Gaynor campaign has
resolved itself into fizzle, and al.
though Barnard will probably run
second, he has no chance of beating
Hearst. Hearst will have a majority
of all the votes polled."

formal denial. The developments in
Caracas since the advent of President
Gomez. he declared, demonstrated the
absurdity of the story. He said the fact
that numerous Venezuelan exiles ex-
PEELED by Castro already had returned
and established themselves as political
factors at Caracas precluded the posi-
bility Of Castro's return. and he called
attention to the fight into Colombia Of
Castro's brother who had been the for

KELLER LOSES APPEAL
Former Army Captain Must Serve SEN
tence for Larceny of Blank
Checks


CHICAGO. H., Jar. 21-judge I.aa-
dis rulings in the case of Daniel T.
Keller, who was sentenced to two years
i'll the prison at Fort Leavcnworih for
the larceny Of six blank quartermasters'
checks were affirmed by the United
States appellate court today.
Keller, Il captain in the army. was
convicted Of the theft of the checks, on
cent each. Although Keller was alleged
to have secured several thousands of dol
lars by forging the checks. technical diff
fchlties stood in the way Of trying him
on Il charge Of forgery and the charge Of
larceny of the blank checks was there
fore made.
In his appeal Keller argued that the
checks had no monetary value and that
