Victory Won't Be Harmful

From The Tribunc'S Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON. Nov. 2.-However
disastrous TO the Democratic cause the
result of to-day's election may be. a
Republican victory is not expected to
affect materially the Presidents health.
according to White House attaches.
DR.. Cary T. Grayson, the Presidents
physician, set aside any anxiety that
might have been felt as to the effect
the election strain and excitement
might have on his patient when he de-
clared that the Presidents condition
has so much improved that news of the
defeat of the party ticket would have
little effect.
DR.. Grayson. however. intimated that
the President still entertained the
greatest hopes for a Democratic
victory.
