The- vital Issue of this caniplrn, air.

I frvmvllrnM think that we fail to ap preciate what ft-vrniiiiT means. It des ri-u mean oratory. It does not mean the power of debate.

FINAL DESPERATE BATTLE Democratic Claims on w York and Jiew Jersey Laughed At by Republican Leaders Bnt Both Are Fighting. BY LIXTD F. LONERGAN. JTEW YORK. Oct. 29. ( Special. Bryan in the course of his tour of the Empire State, this week, made the following sig nificant confession to several personal friends. "J. cannot win without New York." The candidate hones for victory here, but his expectations are not shared by the party leaders. Except Mack, anyone you talk to will tell you that the 39 Taft electors will have at least 60.000 plurality. Bryan intimated that he was not satis fied with the outlook In Ohio and Illinois. The following statement was prepared by one of Bryan's close advisers, and dem onstrates Just where the candidate thinks he stands. Sure of 217 Votes. "We are absolutely sure of 217 votes, for we will carry the following states, Alabama wtth 11 votes; Arkansas. 9: Dela ware. 3: Florida, 6; Georgia, 13; Indiana, 15; Kentucky, 13; Louisiana, 9; Maryland. 8: Mississippi. 10; Montana, 3; Missouri. 18; Nebraska, 8; Nevada, ; New Jersey. 12; North Carolina, 12; Oklahoma, 8; South Carolina, 9: Tennessee. 12; Texas. 18; Vir ginia, 12. and West Virginia, 7. With New York's 39 we will have 256 votes in the electoral college, or 20 more than are necessary. "The chances are against us in Ohio and Illinois, although It would not be good policy to-admlt It. I believe we will carry Colorado, Idaho and Wyoming, but those three states only total 11 electors, and would be of absolutely no value without New York. In every calculation we make we realize that New York is the keystone of the arch. "The campaign in California and the Far West has collapsed. We have no hope of carrying Minnesota, or Wisconsin. Frankly we never did have any real ex pectation of wiping out the Republican majorities in those rock-ribbed communi ties. New York will tell the story, and we are putting in our best licks there." Republican campaigners laugh at the (Concluded on Paxe 5.) Complete Prohibition Not Desirable, He Says Confines His Drink ing to AVlne- and Beer. BOSTON. Mass., Oct. 29. (Special.) President -Enot, of Harvard University, in an address delivered- before the No License League of Massachusetts to night, announced that he had always been a moderate drinker and had ex perienced no lil ieffects; that he be lieved that no license was the best weapon against intemperance, but that he had never yet been convinced that the complete exclusion of liquor from a community was desirable. The total prohibition, " he said, seemed to him too great an interfer ence with personal liberty. President Eliot said that hi. use of intoxicants had been confined to beer and wine, for he had , always hated distilled liquors. He pad recently been con vinced by the results of the progress of medical rclence, through animal ex perimentation, that even the moderate use of alcohol is objectionable and that the habitual use of stimulants is low ering to the intellectual and nervous powers. President Eliot said that he had op posed no license in Cambridge when it was first proposed, but had been con vinced that his first impressions of the plan were wrong and was ready to give his full Indorsement to the crusade.

Senator's Daughter Will Not Marry Duke if She Must Face ltoyal Family's Hostility. ELKIXS, W. Va., Oct. 29. (Special.) From a member of the Elkins family It was said authoritatively tonight that the marriage of Katherine Elkins, daughter of United States Senator Stephen B. Elkins', to the Duke of Abruszi depends entirely upon the success of the noble man in eliminating the opposition which 1 still manifested by some members of the royal family, notably the Queen mother. If these relatives of the Duke can be induced to give their consent, the beau tiful daughter of Mr. Elkins will become the bride of Italy's royal explorer and scientist. If this consent is withheld, the marriage will not take place, for the simple reason that Miss Elkins will not run the risk of Incurring the hostility which might possibly follow such an al liance. At the present time no engagement ex ists between Miss Elkins and the Duke and there will be no engagement until he can assure Miss Elkins that she will be welcomed to Italy by members of the roywl family.

LOST IN MANY VENTURES Exposure of Jugglery With Chicago & Milwaukee Klectric Bonds Re veals Squandering of Immense Sums by the Promoter. CHICAGO, Oct. 29. (Special.) One of the worst messes of frenzied finance ever served up to the American public was disclosed today in the affairs of A. C. Frost's bankrupt Chicago & Milwaukee Electric Railway. In spite of the la bored efforts of interested persons to con ceal the facts, it became known that alarming conditions, warranting the most serious charges of financial Jugglery, have been reported to the receivers of the concern. The revelations substantiate nearly all of the accusations made against Frost when his troubles first became public last January. It is shown that the road is completely swamped by debt; that Frost padded the earnings to conceal a constant deficit and that nearly J1O.O0O.O0O out of the 116.000.000 poured into the ven ture has been squandered or diverted. Legerdemain With Funds. The disclosed methods by which Frost- shuffled the money of Investors through the railroad company; the Re public construction , Company, which built the line; A. C. Frost & Co., bank ers, and a myriad collateral ventures, amount to a financial legerdemain of the highest order.'
