DEMOCRATS POINT
TO BETTING SHIFT
Say Cut From z to ! to 9 to 5
on Hughes Means Wilson Is
Sure Winner.

NEW YORK. Oct. 5.--Betting odds
which have favored Hughes by 2 to 1,
or better. are on the turn, say the Will
son campaigners.
Robert w. wooiiey. OF the national
campaign committee. discussing election
bets, said the preponderance OF Hughes
monay heretofore has been due to the
fact that the money kings are arrayed
for the Republican candidate. In New
York city particularly. Woolley de-
clared, their influence easily accounts
for the odds.
The Wilson leader pointed out that
betting odds In a political campaign are
affected to a great degree by the
amount OF money in sight. Big wads Of
money thrown into the scales by in
terests favorable to Hughes made him
an odd-on favorite and created an i'm
preston among unthinking persons that
the Republican candidate led In popu-
larity with the voters. That had been
the purpose which the men behind the
money had wished. II was an erroneous
impression. Of course. Woolley said: the
There is a point, woodley said. be-
yond which even friendly money
cannot sustain fictitious odds. He
said that point evidently has been
reached. He said:
wall Street. whose vision never
reaches west Of Philadelphia, has al

the Middle West and reduced the odds
on Hughes in the election betting to
to 8. And even at this figure there
was very little Hughes money in
sight. Edward McQuade. curb
broker, placed $4,000 to $4,000 on
President Wilson and later offered
$1,000 more, but found no takers. L.
j. Stokes. another curb broker, had
$4,000 to place on Hughes at . to 6.
There was much more Wilson
money in evidence in the Wall street
district yesterday than at any time
since the opening of the campaign.
On the other hand. Hughes cash was
very scarce, and from the betting
commissioners attitude II was evil
dent that they feel that the odds will
now recede rapidly"
When Woolley was asked why, II
Democrats really believe the tide Ia
turning in favor of Wilson, they dc
not rush In and grab Republican
money while the odds are high. he
replied that the Democrats were
