LAST APPEAL or LEADERS.
Chairman Hanna Asserts That McKinley
\Vill Have 311 Votes In the Electoral
College—Chairman Jones Is Con-
fident Bryan \Vi‘ll Have 252.
CHICAGO, Nov. 2.——The campaign in the
middle western states is at an end. Both
parties claim to he sure of the result and
express confidence that the count will
show a large majority for their men.
Chairman Jones says that Bryan has at
least 252 votes in the electoral college, and
that nothing can take them away from
him.
Chairman Hanna is far more sweeping
in his estimates of McKinley’s prospects,
and says that the Ohio man will have not
less than 311 votes and others may come
later.
Both chairmen have issued their last ap-
peal to the people and say that they have
the victory already won and all that re-
mains to clinch the matter is the count-
ing of the votes ‘
In the matter of congressmen, mem hers
of tlfii state legislatures and smaller offi-
cers on the tickets the claims are of the
ame nature. The campaign in the mid-
le west and in the upper Mississippi val-
ley has been of the most determined char-
acter on both sides. It has been the cen-
ter of the fighting ground, and neither
party has spared an effort to win.
The fight for Illinois that has been
waged by both the leading political par-
ties in the campaign that is just closing
has been one of the hottest struggles ever
known in American politics. Both par-
ties have all along made sweeping claims
of their ability to carry the state, but at
the end the Republicans seem to be the
more sanguine of success. Chairman
Hanna said that he was sure of the state
for McKinley by a majority rather over
than under 100,000, while Chairman Jones
in his statement of the result, which he
has sent to the press, puts the state in the
doubtful column. This is more of a. con-
cession than the Democracy has made re-
garding the state at any time since the
opening of the campaign. The Democrat-
ic leaders have always insisted that they
would carry the state by a large majority,
and after the speeches of Mr. Bryan in this
city during the last few days they have ex-
pressed themselves as being very jubilant
over the outlook.
Chairman Hanna's Appeal.
M. A. Hanna, chairman of the Repub-
lican national committee, has issued the
following final appeal:
“The earnest support which the loyal
citizens of the United States, irrespective
of former political affiliations, have ren-
dered the Republican party and the cause
of sound money in the campaign about to
end, justifies an expression from those
who have been called upon to conduct it.
“No campaign since the war of the re-
bellion has presented such grave responsi-
bilities to those entitled to the elective
franchise. The dangerous principles enun-
ciated by the Chicago platform, which
proposes not only a debasement of the cur-
rency, but the destruction of the highest
judicial authority of. the land, have justi-
fied good citizens, irrespective of past par-
ty preferences, in uniting to rebuke those
who would thus endanger the very foun-
dation of our national organization.
“The developments of the closing week
of the campaign leave no doubt that the
judgment of an overwhelming majority of
the people of the nation is against the
platform and candidate of repudiation and
national dishonor. It now remains for
the voters to register at the polls their an-
swer to the attempts to excite passion,
prejudice and selfishness for the benefit of
a few who are willing to destroy national
honor and endanger national existence for
their personal ambitions and individual
profit Good citizens in every section and
of every party have united in publicly ex‘
pressing themselves upon this subject.
Their duty now is to do so in such amana
nor as wil forever put an end to further
attempts in this line. There is but one
way of doing this and that is at the polls.
While each man has his especial field in
the preliminary work of the campaign, the
duty of Election day is common to all. No
man, however much he has done in influ-
encing others, can neglect 'his personal
duty at the polls, and no citizen, however
humble or devoted to employment or
business, should fail to exercise his privi-
lege and duty on Election day. It is not
merely a privilege, but a duty. And while
it is the duty of every good citizen to ex-
press his will at the polls on all occasions,
that duty was never more serious or im-
portant than now. Sound arguments and
expressions of loyalty count for nothing
unless those who offer them, or are con-
vinced by them. exercise that universal
privilege of participating in the annual
direction of the government by voting on
Election day. It is hoped, therefore,that all
good citizens will join hands on Tuesday
in maintaining the honor of the nation by
registering their ballots in favor of that
candidate who has been honored by the
support of loyal men of all parties—Will-
iam McKinley.”
Statement of Chairman Jones.
Chairman Jones of the Democratic na-
tional committee has issued the following
appeal:
“The great struggle to right the wrong
of 1873 has been won. The only work re-
maining to be done is to see that the peo-
ple have the opportunity to vote as their
consciences dictate and that their votes
shall be counted as cast.
“I urge all lovers of the country and
our institutions to exert themselves as
they never have before in this holy cause.
Watch the polling places; scrutinize every
act at the polls, and see to it that the law
shall not be violated.
“This committee has offered a reward
of $500 for evidence necessary to convict
any one guilty of bribing or attempting to
bribe any voter to vote or to refrain from
voting, also a reward of $500 for evidence
to convict any one of coercing, attempting
to coerce, intimidating or attempting to
intimidate any voter.
“I have received from our chairman of
each state full estimates of the standing of
voters in each state and am confident that
Mr. Bryan’s election is assured by a very'
large majority. He will carry each one of
the following states: Alabama, 11; Ar-
kansas, 8; California, 9; Colorado, 4;Flor-
5.1.1, 4; Georgia, 13;,Idaho, 8; Indiana, 15;

24; Ohio, 33; Wisconsin, 12. Total, 75.
These are states I regard as doubtful.” .
Chairman Butler's Statement.
Chairman Butler of the Populist na-
tional committee says:
“The election of Bryan is an absolute
certainty. Our candidate now has ab-
solutely certain 2:38 electoral votes and
his popular majority will be larger than
the electoral majority. It will be at least
2,000,000, which is about the size of the
Populist vote. The arrangements perfect-
ed and the lining up of voters, both Popu-
lists and Demhcrats, are far beyond our
expectations, due more to the intense in-
terest of the people in the fight than to the
diplomacy of committees, who, however,
did all they could. The result now
achieved is wonderful, in view of the diffi-
culties confronting us. Our party came
in the west from the Republican party, in
the south from the Democratic party and
to some extent the old party prejudices
still exist. To line up this vote solidly for
a candidate was extremely difficult
Though the Democratic committee met us
half way, yet in many states local mana-
gers, unappreciatlve of conditions, added to
the difficulty. Two vice presidential can-
didates caused great embarrassment. The ~
campaign would have been simplified if
Sewall had seen his way clear to with-
draw, but failing this we had to organize
joint electoral tickets all around. The
party as well as Watson were disappointed
in, not having one ticket, but it would be
a slander on him to say he would consé-
uently keep firyan from e‘tting votes.
6 will make no further fig it.
“The free silver Republican vote that
will go to Bryan will be much larger than
McKinley‘s gold standard Democratic
vote. The 2,000,000 of Populist votes will
be practically solid for Bryan. There is a
much larger percentage of the labor vote,
both organized and unorganized, for Bry-
an than has ever been cast fora Democrat-
ic candidate. The People’s Party strength,
even were the free silver Republican and
labor vote absent, could elect Bryan. Chi-
cago is doubtful, but we will get 40,000
majority in the country districts to over-
come that.
“Bryan does not have to get Illinois.
He could lose all the middle western states,
except Indiana or Michigan or Minnesota
(which are certain), and be elected. The
Republicans will come nearer to getting
Wyoming than any state west of Iowa. ”
Bryan on Mr. Hanna’s Figures.
COUNCIL BLUF'FS, Nov. 2.—When Mr.
Bryan was shown the estimate of Chairman
Hanna of the Republican national com-
mittee and asked if he had anything to
say as to its correctness, he made this an-
swer: “I shall leave the national commit-
tees to issue estimates, but if I were to ex.
press an opinion upon his (Mr. Hanna’s)
table I should say that fully one-half of
the electoral votes which he counts upon
will be found in the free silver column.
Unless the reports which come to us from
various states are entirely erroneous, we
shall have considerably more than 300
electoral votes.” Mr. Bryan also said that
he was confirmed in the opinion, uttered
some time ago, that the study of tho mcn;
ey question had increased the number 01
RepubliCans who would support free sil-
ver and had decreased the number of gold
standard Democrats.
The Seizure of the Dnuntless.
JACKSONVILLE. Fla, Nov. 2.—A. Bis-
bee, owner Of the tug Dauntless, which is
being held at Fernandina in charge of the
cutter Windom, for violating the naviga-
tion laws by having its lights out at night
and hyleaving Jacksonville without clear-
ance papers, has communicated with the
United States assistant district attorney,
saying that he would pay under protest
the $200 fine claimed by Collector Daltzell
of Fernandina on the first charge, but that
he refused to pay the $500 fine assessed on
the second charge. The assistant district
attorney communicated the matter to the
treasury department at Washington, but-
no instructions have been received. ’-

LONDON, Oct. 31,—The Westminster
Gazette this afternoon, discussing the
financial situation, says, “That the Bank
of England will make every effort to make

below 4% per cent, which action appears
to show that further and considerable do '
mands for bullion are expected.”
