NEW YORK, Nov. An especially
heavy vote is reported throughout the
entire country. Although both sides

the outcome of the election, it is priv
ately admitted that the result cannot

winner. The odds favored Hughes un-
til midnight last night. This morning
it opened almost even. Betting COM

money except on even money. There is
more republican money in the whirl
than democratic. 1t is estimated that
81 900, ,000will change hands tonight,

The middle west is reported to be
betting on Wilson as favorite. The
odds are completely reversed Cleve

COUNTY DIVISION REACTS
Republican Ticket Suffers From Ac.
ton of Central Committee on
County Division

Much dissatisfaction is being ex-
pressed by some of the republican can
didates, and by members of the re-
publican party with the action of the
republican county central committee in
springing the county division hoax in
the present campaign. The democrats
are conceded to have decidedly the
better of the situation, and it is believ-
ed that the republicans will suffer very
severely from reaction.
The county division scheme was new
er taken seriously by anyone who un-
derstood the real condition of affairs in
the county, and as campaign ammuni-
tion it has proved a dangerous thing
for the party that brought it out.
