Leaders ot both parties agree that there
is little likelihood of any radical change
in the complexion of the Congressional
delegation of New York County, the re
sults in many districts being foregone
conclusions.
Outside of the battle for the Governor

citing an unusually light" interest.
IN ILLINOIS.
Both Sides Claim Success but Say In
dependent Vote Is a. Puzzle.
CHICAGO, Nov. 3. The Republicans
claim that in tomorrow's state election
they will have 19 out of 25 members of
Congress, and more than enough mem
bers of the State' Legislature to elect the
United States Senator who is to succeed
Senator William E. Mason. The Demo
crats claim that they will have a few
more than a majprity at the joint Fallot,
while the Republicans assert there ,1s no
doubt whatever of at least 12 or 15. Of
the 25 members of Congress to Be elected
in the State, the Republicans claim that
they will have 16 for sure, and feel confi
dent of getting three more. The Demo
crats claim 12. The present delegation in
Congress is evenly divided 11 Republi
cans and 11 Democrats. It is practically
conceded by the Democrats that the Re
publicans will have the majority of the
Congressmen from this state.
The Republican campaign managers as
sert that they will carry the County of
Cook by not less than 15,000, and say they
expect the plurality to be rather over this
figure than under It; 25,000 is their
high claim. The Democrats claim their
county ticket will go in by 12.000, but the
managers of both parties admit that it
is diffip ult to make accurate predictions.
It is admitted on both sides that there
will be a very large independent- vote.

Only Fif?lit Is on Van Sunt, and He
Will Win With Other Republicans.
ST. PAUL, Nov. 3. Both Republican"
Chairman Jamison and Democratic Chair
man Buck are very sanguine, and. each Is
predicting 5,000 plurality for his party.
The fight has been principally for Gov
ernor the Democrats virtually conceding
the rest of the ticket to the Republicans
and .putting In their best efforts to elect
L. A. Rosing to the Governorship. This
fact will certainly reduce the vote for
Governor Van Sant below the rest of the
state ticket.
The Democrats will not admit that more
than six of the nine districts are Repub
lican, claiming the others are doubtful.
Governor Van Sant has sought an in
dorsement of his anti-railway merger
fight In bis speeches, but" there' has been
no attack on his record on th.it question.
The Legislature will have a large Repub
lican majority in both branches, the Dem
ocrats not having nominated candidates
in many districts.
IN MICHIGAN.
Nonpartisan Estimates Give State

DETROIT. Nov. 3. Except in Detroit,
Port Huron and Saginaw, where city of
ficials will be elected, the campaign has
been one of the quietest ever known in
Michigan.
L. T. Durand today gave out a state
ment predicting the success of the en
tire state Democratic ticket tomorrow.
This, however. Is more than State Chair
man Justin R. "Whitin and most other
Democrats anticipate.
Nonpartisan estimates give the state to
the Republicans by 30.000 to 40.000.
The Legislature, it is conceded, will be
Republican. Nine of the 12 members of

INDIANAPOLIS. Nov. 2. Senators Fair
banks and Beverldge. who have delivered
speeches in nearly every county in the
state, are out with statements tonight
claiming the state will go Republican by
from 20.000 to 0,000, and that their party
wlll have a majority in -both Houses of
the Legislature. The coming Legislature
will select a Senator to succeed Senator
Fairbanks, and if the prediction of the
Republican lenders oh the outcome of to
morrow's battle is sustained. Senator

ocratic leaders are equally as confident
of success as are the Republican leaders.
IN IOWA.
Democrats Concede Their Defeat by
35,000.
DES MOINES; la., Nov. 3. It is believed
bere tonight that a somewhat larger vote
will be polled in Iowa tomorrow than has
been anticipated. Chairman Spence to
day claims the election of the Republi
can state ticket 'by 63,000, and the election
of all the Republican Congressional can
didates. Chairman Jackson, of the Dem
ocratic committee, concedes the state to
the Republicans by not over 35,000, and
claims the election of "Wade and Craig in
the Second and First Districts, and the
probable election of two or three Demo
crats to Congress.

Close Fight on .Governor Republi
cans Lead for. Other Oflices.
PROVIDENCE. R. I.. Nov. 3. Much
doubt clouds the Gubernatorial fight and
only the actual count of ballots will de
cide between Governor C. D. Kimball, the
Republican nominee, and L. P. C. Garvin,
of Cumberland. The Senate will go Re
publican, and it is believed that the House
will also go Republican by a decreased
majority. The re-election of Adin 3.
Capron, of Smlthfield, Congressional nom
inee from the Second District, Is assured,
and the re-election of Melville Bull Is
probable by a narrow margin.
IN OHIO.
Republicans Offer Betting Odds !
Never Heard of Before.
COLUMBUS, O.. Nov. 3. Before' the
party managers left for their homes to
night to vote no unusual features were
reported anywhere In the state The
Democrats still insist that there may be a
surprise In the vote on the state ticket
and that they will gain two members of
Congress, and probably three. The pres
ent Ohio delegation in Congress consists
of 17 Republicans and four Democrats.
Chairman Dick, before leavls for Akron.
said he expected a Republican gain of one
by A. H. Ja'kson, defeating Republican
Congressman Jnmes A. Norton .in the
Thirteenth District. Chairmsn Dick has
not changed bis estimate of 70,000 plurality
on .the-state ticket . The Republicans offer
bets at such odds as,Tvere never heard
of in Ohio heretofore..

LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 3. Final claims
of political managers on- the result to
morrow were made tonight. Chairman
Lindsay, forrthe Republicans, said:
"We will elect six members of Con
gress, the entire state ticket and two
thirds of the Legislature."
Chairman Hall, of the Democrats, said:
"We are going to elect W'. H. Thomp
son Governor by a "plurality of 10,000. We
will not lose a single one of the Fusion
Congressional districts, and are counting
confidently on the election of Stark, Rob
inson, Shallenberger and Berry. ' We will
be disappointed If we do not control the
lower house of the Legislature."
Based on-lastyear's vote, .the Fuslonists
have a Republican plurality, of 12,000 to
overcome.
Bryan Closes the Campaign.
OMAHA, Nov. 3. W. J. Bryan wound
up the Democratic campaign "in Nebraska

MILWAUKEE,-. Nov. 3. While, the
chances seem greatly to favor the suc

row, party differences are expected to
cut quite a, figure on both sides. Espe
cially is this -the case among the Repub
licans who have been practically divided

by anywhere from 12,000 to 17,000 plural
ity and General George F. Bryant, chair
man of the Republican State Central Com
mittee, estimates Governor La -FoUette's
plurality at 40,000 The Republican man
agers tonight claim 10 Congressmen and
one In doubt, while the Democrats are
sure of one and. claim a fighting chance
for three others. It Is generally conceded
that the Republicans will control the next
Legislature, which will elect a United
States Senator.

chairman of the Republican State Com

000. The Senator concedes but one of the
32 Congressional districts to the Demo
crats, and claims ' that tho Republicans

BOISE. Idaho; Nov. ,3. (To the Ore-'
Eonlan.) I predict the election of tho
entire Democratic state ticket tomor
row, by majorities ranging: from 1500
to 2500 votes. Governor Hunt will, in
my Judgment, j lead the ticket bjr a. few
hundred votes. There will act be a
difference of more than 500 votes be
tween the 'highest and the lowest can
didate. Hutchinson will be elected to
Congress. In spite of 'a bitter personal
flght that has been waged against him.
Thirty-four votes, in tho Joint Lecli

the Democrats tot 40 members of the

A strong flght has been made on Butler,
Democrat, in the 12th (St Louis) District,
but the Indications tonight strongly point
to his election.
IN NEW JERSEY.
Most Spirited Campaign In Years
Legislature Will Be Republican.
TRENTON, N. J.. Nov. 3. The cam
paign In this state has been one of the
most spirited In years. There appears to
be no doubt that the Legislature jvill be
largely Renubllcan. DemocraU6 Chalr-
man Jourley expressed the belief that the
Democrats would carry fur Congressional
districts, the First, Third, Ninth apd
Tenth. The normal Republican majority
In the-First District Is claimed to be 30,
000 and the Third District gave Governor
Murphy a plurality of 3038. Tha Ninth
and Tenth Districts are embraced in Dem
ocratic Hudsoii County.
IN MASSACHUSETTS.
Republicans Are Confident Socialist
Vote Complicates Matters.
BOSTON, Nov. 3. The last word on the
stump in the Massachusetts political cam
paign was spoken tonight, by the leading
orators of both parties. Republicans arc
exceedingly confident and the Democrats
very hopeful. The former claim the state
by 25,XX)0, while the latter b6Heve they will
elect their candidate for Governor by SOOO
plurality. The Republicans assert that 12
of the candidates will -win, while the Dem
ocrats claim that they will elect at least
six out of 14 members of Congress. The
uncertain element In tomorrow's election
is the strength of the Socialist vote.
IN COLORADO.
Both Sides Are Confident and a Hot
Contest Is Assured.
DENVER, Nov. 3. The election in Colo
rado tomorrow premises to be hotly con
tested, and party managers predict a
heavy vote. Both Democratic and Re

REPCBLICANS SURE OF IDAHO.
BOISE. Idaho, Nov. 3. (To the Ore
gonlan.) Idaho is Republican this year
by 1500 to 2000. It Is believed, how
ever, that the Democratic nominee for
Governor will not receive the votes of
a .considerable element In his party,
known as Steunenbure Democrats, as
distinguished- from Dubois Democrats,
who support Hunt. This will increase
the majority of' Morrison, Republican
candidate for Governor, to at least
3000. French, the Republican nominee
for Concrcsa, It Is believed will run
ahead of his ticket. Hutchinson, his
Democratlo opponent. Is strongly op
posed in his home county, and will loso
H to French. The same causes operat
ing against him In his own county are
felt elsewhere In the state, and It can
be confidently, stated that French's ma- '
majority will not be less thai) 3500.
The Legislature, which ts to elect- a
United States Senator, will bo close,
with the odds favoring the Republicans.
The work of the Dcmo-fuslon Legisla
ture of 1000 ii reapportioning the Rep
resentatives to 'that body so as to in
sure a Democratic Legislature, Is re
acting upon them in a peculiar man
ner. In that several of the strongest
Democratic counties of two years ago
will elect Republican Legislators thi3
time. This, coupled with the serious
Democratic dissension in three counties,
two of Which would otherwise be sure
ly Democratic, aids the chances of the
Republicans for a majority in the Leg
islature. Idaho will be found hence
forth in the Republican column, by
reason of large Immigration into tho
state, and the popularity of President
Roosevelt which .has won much sup
port for the Republican ticket.

latter by 10,000 to 15,000 on the head of the
state ticket The other four tickets are
not expected to poll more than 30,000 votes
out of a probable total of 220.000. Three
members of Congress are to be chosen,
and both Democrats and Republicans are
claiming all these. It Is generally conced
ed that the Democrats will secure a ma
jority of the Legislature and will re-elect
United States Senator Teller.
In order to insure a fair election In this
city, an agreement has been reached to
place both Republican and Democratic
Watchers at the polls, who will assist tho
election officers and the police In prevent
ing any repeating or fraudulent voting.

IN DELAWARE.
AddicUs' Hope of Controlling Legis
lature Sure to Be Blnnted.
.DQyER, Del., Nov. 3. Estimates from
various sources tonight indicate that J..
Edward Addlcks will be unable to con
trol the next Legislature. William Byrne,
the Union (Addlcks) nominee for Con
gress, predicts a combined Republican
majority In the Legislature, with a dead
lock on the Senatorshlp, but the ultimate
election of two Republican United States
Senators; The regular Republican and
Democratic leaders, however, dispute this
claim and assert that not only will Mr.
Byrne be defeated, but that the Addlcks
faction will elect not more than 16 mem
bers of the Legislature, which would pre
clude the possibility of Addicks election
to the United States Senate. One regu
lar Republican estimate gives this vote
on Joint ballot: Democrats, 25J Repub
licans, 22; doubtful, 5. Democratic lead
ers claim a majority over both Republi
can factions.
IN MONTANA.
Betting Is Even in Congressional
Race Both Sides Claim State.
HELENA, Mont., Nov. 3. Both parties
are claiming the state tonight, and each
gives figures In support of Its contentions.
William Lindsay, chairman of the Re
publican State Committee, said this even
ing he was confident of the election of
Holloway for. Associate Justice, and he
believed that Dixon, Rep., would be elect
ed to Congress, although by a . consider-,
ably smaller plurality than Dixon.
H. J. Toomey, chairman of the Demo
cratic .State Committee, said according to
hl advices Evans, Dem.. for Congress,
would be elected by 5000 plurality, and
that Leslie, for Associate Justice, would
carry the state by 1500. As to the Leg
islature, Chairman Toomey said there
was 'ho question In his mind that the
Democrats would have a majority on joint
ballot
The betting is even on Dixon and Evans,
and slight odds are given on Holloway.
Tlio'outfook is for a heavy vote.

Democratic and Republican chairmen pro
fess their confidence In complete success

situation tonight makes it appear that the

Congressional tickets. The Democrats, on
the ..other hand, are almost sure to make
gains in tne legislature, xneyvnave Deen
devoting most of their efforts to these
candidates during the closing weeks of

and in the case of the Interior Department,
both assistants having left the city for the
purpose, it was necessary f or the Presi
dent to designate an assistant Attorney-
General as Acting Secretary of the Interior

complished wonderful results with her.
I purchased some and took them accord

say a decided improvement. I contin
ued their use and they cured me."
