Hughes carried New York by plu
rality estimated at 100000 Wilson
carried New York City by about 40,-
600, but that was more than offset by
the Hughes votes upstate. The re-
turns outside of New York City are in
complete. but they indicate an upstate
plurality of 100000 for Hughes.
Illinois has gone to Hughes by plu-
Cality that may approximate Roose-
velt's' record of 100000 in 1904.
Southern Illinois, the Republican cit
adel, was solid for the Hughes elect
ors. President Wilson made no gains
in any of the downstate except for a
small increase around Centralia, where
William Jennings Bryan made a per
sonal appeal to boyhood friends.
Ohio, according to the early returns,
had been carried by Wilson by a tre-
mendous plurality. Later the figures
favorable to the President were con
siderably reduced and the Republican
managers asserted the state would be
found eventually to have gone for
Hughes by 10000
Unless, however, the vote in the ru-
raj districts which has not been re-
ported should prove overwhelming for
Hughes, Ohio must be conceded to the
President.
Hughes developed strong lead in
West Virginia which, if sustained by
succeeding returns. will give him the
state by small margin.
Kansas was in doubt, according to

that city Hughes 874, Wilson 644.
Democrats are claiming Connecticut
ought to be in the doubtful list, but
the Now Haven Union poll shows in
New Haven vote in the proportion
OF eight to five for Hughes.
Republicans have been more than
liberal in placing their states in the
doubtful column, as will be observ-
ed in that the prophesies outside OF
West Virginia give Wilson a show in
West Virginia. II there is no more
reason for pacing Ohio, Indiana,
Wisconsin and New Jersey in the
doubtful" coiuihn than there is in
placing West Virginia in that column,
Wilson hasn't shadow of chance
for reelection. For even with the
republican party 80 badly plit in
l9l2. and thousands OF Republicans
voting for Wilson to defeat either
TAFT or Roosevelt, still Wilson's total
vote ran $4,000 behind the combln-
ed vote OF Taft and Roosevelt.
In Ohio Wilson will have to get
more votes than he got in 1912 to
equal the combined vote Of Roosevelt
and Taft in 1912, and polls taken
largely in the cities, do not show the
Republican strength in the country.

all the other doubtful states, and
stlll hold every state the list given
him. II Hughes carries Missouri,
which seems likely, Wilson Is hope
iess'y out Of 1t.
The task ahead of Wilson is easily
understood when It is seen that when
he carries every state in his list he
has only 149 votes. and needs III
votes to win as compared with fifty
six for Hughes. or more than double
the number required by the Repub-
licln nominee. II Wilson does not
carry New York, his chances have
gone glimmering During the last
week Hr=hes made strong gains in
New York and also in Indiana, every
poll in Indiana showing him far in
the lead. The polls taken in New
Jersey, in Newark, Passiac, Atlantic
City-all showed tremendous ma
tority for Hughes except in Elizabeth.
