presidential FIGHT
IN -FOUR States
Both Sides Concentrate Ef-
forts on New York, In
diana, Ohio and Illinois
LATEST POLL SHOWS
HUGHES IN LEAD

NEW YORK, Oct. Only five weeks
of campaigning remain before the
Presidential election, and politicians
here agree that the energy of both
sides from now ON will be concentrated
on New York, Indiana, Ohio and Hi
nois.
Democrats figure that Wilson is rea-
sonably sure OF carrying twenty-five
States, with 1917 electoral votes, and
that Hughes is certain of eighteen
States, with l75 votes. This leaves Mr.
Wilson go votes shy of the 266 neces-
sary TO elect, and Mr.. Hughes 81 votes.
Added to the electoral votes of the
States which are conceded to him, those
of New York and Ohio would give Mr..
Wilson more votes than he needs. New
York, Indiana and Nebraska, for which
the President will make personal bid
during this week, would give him two
more than are required.
To win the desired number, Mr..
Hughes needs the electoral votes Of
New York. Ohio and Illinois, which
would give him a margin of Z, OF New
York, Indiana, Nebraska and Ohio will
give him one vote above the required
number.
The uncertainties Of the results in the
disputed States are consequently taxing
the abilities of both organizations.
While pretending TO be satisfied with
the outlook. neither the Democratic nor
the Republican managers have any def
mite knowledge Of what is going TO be
the outcome Of their efforts 70 win any
or all of the doubtful States.
After Progressive Vote.
The Republicans are trying harder
than the Democrats, probably be
cause they are compelled to assume
the initiative. They have perfected
efficient organizations in States where
the anti-Democratic vote was plunged
into a state Of chaos by the Roosevelt
movement four years ago.
This is particularly true OF New
York. Ohio and Indiana, where. to all
intents and purposes. the regular Re
publican and Progressive elements
have been effectively co-Ordinated.
Reports from both Republican and
Democratic sources in the upstate
district OF New York. in Indiana and
in Illinois indicate the distribution Of
the Progressive vote on basis Of 20
per cent TO the Republicans and 30
per cent. TO the Democrats.
To Offset this advantage the Demo-
Gratis must Of necessity supplement
their regular army from other
sources. The party managers have
been encouraged by recent reports
which indicate that a substantial per
centage of the vote susceptible TO
/ trades union influence and ordinarily
classified as Republican will find its
way into the Democratic column.
In the middle western states the
problems confronting the rival man
ayers mainly concern the tendencies OF
the Progressives and the sympathizers

managers have won over many of the
