State Chairman William Barnes,
Jr.. saying he had reports from one
third OF the state that were "unques-
tionably accurate" declared President
Taft will carry the state by $4,000.
In support of this he cited his fig.
ures which gave Taft 10000 upstate
and Governor Wilson only $4,000
plurality south of the Harlem river.
At democratic headquarters State
Chairman George M. Palmer had his
figures showing that Wilson would
carry the state, outside OF greater
New York by between 10000 and 5o,-
900 and that south of the Harlem" the
democratic candidate would get more
than 100000 and very likely more
than 10000.
At bull moose headquarters State
Chairman Hotchkiss was equally GER

The careful canvass made by his coun-
ty chairmen showed. 1t was said, that
both of the old parties had lost very
heavily and it was insisted here that
Roosevelt and johnson would carry
New York by upwards of 50,O00.'
Definite figures were promised week
from today.

history of the state have the expert
