CHICAGO. Nov. 4.-Senator Law

van II this ratio is maintained Sher-
man will come to Cook county with
plurality over Sullivan downstate Of
slightly more than 10000. enough to

Sherman Confident.
SPRINGFIELD. ILL.,, Nov. 4.-"Un-
less Sullivan gets $4,000 plurality in
Cook county, / am elected" was the
confident assertion OF Senator Sher-
man, republican, at his home here
this morning.
Il have been in the down state coun-
ties since July and am positive my
down-state lead will be that great I
have figured carefully and conserva-
lively. and In every county reported,
my lead has been beyond my expecta-
tons. Indications that Sullivan would
have lead of $4,000 in Cook county
seem to assure my election"
