EXPECTED LOSS IN WEST But Predicted to Senator I.ooue Tfitu Taffs Plnralitles In Eat Would Kxeeed His How He In terpret Victory. WASHINGTON. Nov. 4. The Presi dent waa very cheerful today and told the newspapermen thet the election of Mr. Taft wholly carried oui a pro phecy made by him In a letter written to Senator H. C. I.ode. of Massachu setts, dated October 6. 1908. In this totter the President said: "Dear Cabot: Phophecy la very bad until after the event. Nevertheless I must send vou a line to say that I think the situation Is steadily Improv ing In Ohio. East of the Alleshentes I believe we shall have a larger popu lar Dluralitv than four years ago1 In other words, that Taffs plurality will be greater than mine, and I think that our electoral vote will be larger east of the Alleg-henies than four years ago, because I think the chances slightly favor us in Maryland, although this represents a good deal of guess work. Expected Loss In West. "West of the Alleghenles I think we shall see a heavy falling otT In the majorities as compared with 1904. but I do not anticipate the loss of any electoral votes excepting In Missouri and Nevada, and I am Inclined to think that we have an even chance of carry ing Kentucky." Over 1000 telegrams and many let ter of congratulation on the result of the election poured Into the White House today for Mr. Roosevelt. He was busy all day reading these mes sages and dictating replies to them. No callers were received. Meaning of Frazzle. The President said there seemed to be some doubt throughout the country regarding the meaning of the word "frazzle." which he used recently in referring to the campaign by laying: "We've got them beaten to a frazzle." He explained that it was a common word in the South and he had used it when he was a boy. To those who do not know what I mean by the word 'frazzle.' " said the President, "the best definition I can give Is to refer to the election re turns." Meaning of Victory. Mr. Roosevelt gave his interpreta tion of the victory of the Republican party, when he said to the newspaper men whom he received in his office: "This administration has meant a steady effort and progress whjch should never be allowed to deviate Into unwise radicalism, on the one hand, nor into unwise conservatism on the other. "The nomination of Mr. Taft waa a triumph over reactionary conservatism and his election was a triumph over unwise and improper radicalism." WORK FOR EOl'R YEARS MORE Mack Tells of Finns to Eight Re publican Policies. NEW YORK. Nov. 4. Ieclartng that the Iiemocratic party is more united to day than it has been in many years, and Mr. Bryan-jras defeated by what he claims was misrepresentation, to the ef fect that 1:1s election would hurt business Interests. Chairman Mack, of the Demo cratic National Committee, this afternoon lssud a statement in which he announces extensive plans to advance the party interest during the next four years, ilr. Mark's statement in full follows: "There is not much for me to say, and no apologies to make relative to the vic tory of the Republican party. Mr. Bryan made the most magnificent fight ever wagfd by a candidate. The party waa made the victim of misrepresentation a misrepresentation that Democratic suc cess would retard the business Interests of the country- That was. of course, an argument without foundation. Notwithstanding yesterday's defeat, the Democratic party stands more united today than it has In many years, and in this union lies Its future strength and power of recuperation. "It Is my intention to continue head quarters In .Buffalo and Washington fur the next four years, to keep in touch with the leaders of all the states and to promulgate Democratic principles and Democratic thought by the printing of lit erature to aid the leaders of the party in fighting the high tariff, which, in all probability, the Republicans w-ill continue, notwithstanding their promises to re vise It. "I am supported in this by the mem bers of the Natlonsl Committee, state chairmen and other leaders all over the Country. "In bis own state Nebraska where he is best known. Mr. Bryan was victorious. While It is true that he met with defeat In the Nition, he did so as the candidate of his party, supported by the six million or seven million of bis countrymen who voted for him and tlie principles he so splendidly espoused and with the respect and admiration of them." VICTORY PLEASES PRESIDENT Declares Taffs Election a Triumph Over Radicalism. WASHINGTON. Nov. 4. President Roosevelt today gave his Interpretation of Hie victory of the Republican party at the polls yesterday, when he said to the newspaper men whom he received In his ofhee: "This administration has meant a steady effort and progress which should never be allowed to deviate Into an un wise radicalism, on the one hand, nor into an unwise conservatism on the other. "The nomination of Mr. Taft was a triumph over reactionary conservatism, and his election was a triumph over un wise and improper radicalism." lOWXEI, BIT NOT .PIT OCT Gomprrs Ready to Renew Fight Which He Has Just Lost. WASHINGTON, Nov. 4 "Temporarily defeated but not conquered." is the way president c.mp?rs of the American Fed eration of l-abor viewed the election in a statement issued to-lay. "The organized workers stood true to the cause of Justice and human freedom." says Mr. Gonipers. "This Is not the first time in the struggles of the masses that XLirenched weallii, privilege and power gained a material, even though a tempo rary victory. The moral Influence of the campaign is with the workers. The part labor took compelled the discussion to be devoted almost exclusively to the labor question, labor movement and the princi ples of right. Justice and humanity upon which their philosophy and demands are based. Even though disappointed with" the result, there i no loss of faith or confidence in the justice of labors de mands, and their successful achievement. Action consistent, insistent and persistent will achieve for the toilers the triumph of the cause of labor and the cause of human justice."

I am more than gratined at the Re publican success. I believe that with the election of Taft and a Kepumican v un gress there will be a complete restora tlon of confidence. The Republican party begins again clothed with power to keep the pledges In Its platform, w nue we will revise the tariff, beginning imme diately after the Inauguration of Taft, the revision will not halt production, as everybody understands that full protec tion will be given to the employer and the employe sufficiently in degree to maintain the present wages of tne em ployes and with reasonable profit to the employers. I look confidentially to a fur ther increase In production In the United States, which, of course means run em ployment and Increased consumption." Murphy Says He's Disappointed. NEW YORK. Nov, 4. Charles F. Murphy, leader of Tammany Hall. In a statement made last night, said: "I confess very great disappointment on the result of the election with re gard to both Mr. Bryan and Mr. Chan- ler. Every Indication before the eiec tion convinced me that Mr. Bryan would prove a much more popular can didate than he seems to have been when Judged by the vote at the polls. "Governor Hughes can find but little comfort and no Indorsement of his poll cles In the result. There can be no qties tion that the same elements in opposition In any other year than that of a Presi dential campaign and with political con dltlons normal he would have been buried under an adverse vote of at least 100.000.

The requirements of fashion are much more of a problem to a woman inclined to embonpoint than to her sister of slender physique, but the Reduso Corset puts her on the same level. The Reduso is a hygienic corset, holding the abdomen in and keeping the chest up, so that the function of breathing is exer cised naturally. The surprising result of wearing Reduso Corsets is that all excess of flesh on the abdomen rapidly disappears. The waist line lessens several inches through wearing this corset. It works with nature, not against it ; consequently is per fectly comfortable and a help to good health, as well as a boon to the modiste.
