General Officers to, be Chosen in Ten States. 3 UNITED STATES SEN ATORS The Elections in Several of the States Will be of Special lmportancehNot- withstanding it is an 03' Year—The Big Fight in Greater New York. Washington, Nov. 1.—The present is an off year in politics, but elections are to be held to-morrow in several ‘States which are of considerable importance. The States interested are Colorado, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachu- setts, Nebraska, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia. The vari- ous general offices to .be filled are given below. Special interest attaches to the election of the Legislatures of Mary- land, Ohio and Virginia, because each of them will be called upon to choose a. United States Senator. Colorado will elect a Judge of the Supreme Court, for which two candi- dates are in the field, the nominee of the Republicans and the fusion nomi- nee of the panties advocating free sil— ver, their ticket being headed “Civic Federation.” Thea-people of Iowa will elect a full State ticket, to serve two years, and part of its Senate and its full House of Representatives. The only general officer to be chosen in Kentucky is the Clerk of the Court of Appeals. In Maryland two minor State oflicers are to be chosen, and members of the Legislature, who will elect a United States Senator, the term of Arthur P. Gorman, Democrat, expiring March 3, 1890. Massachusetts elects, as usual, its full State ticket and Legislature to serve one year. For the State officers there are five full tickets in the field. George Fred Williams, Democrat, will oppose the re-election of Gov. Wolcott, Republican. The vote of Massachusetts in recent years has been. Dem. Rep. 1896.President . . . . . 90,530 278,976 1896.Governor . . . . . . .. .103,662 258,204 1895 . Governor ......... 121,599 186,280 The people of Nebraska are to elect an Associate Justice of their Supreme Court and two Regents of the State University. In New York are to be chosen the Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals, the Assembly, five Justices of the Su- preme Court, and one member of the State Senate and one Representative in Congress, to fill vacancies. The first election of municipal officers for Greater New York occurs. The vote of the State in recent elec- tions has been: Nat. Dem. Dem. Rep. 1896.President . . ..18,950 551,369 819,838 1896.Governor .26,698 574,524 787,516 New Jersey will select a. successor to James Smith in the United States Sen- ate, besides the election of six Senators and sixty Legislators for the lower House. In Ohio a full State ticket is to be chosen, and the Legislature, which will be called upon to choose a United States Senator to succeed Marcus Alonzo Hanna, Republican, who was appointed to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of the Hon. John Sher- man to become Secretary of State‘in , President McKinley’s Cabinet. The people of Pennsylvania will elect their State Treasurer and Auditor General and a portion of the Legisla- ture. Virginia is to choose State officers, to serve four years, part of its Senate and the House of Delegates, and the Legis-‘ lature thus constituted will be called upon to elect a United States Senator. New York’s Big Fight. New York, Nov. 1.—Upon the eve of the New York election it is impossible to say with any degree of certainty whether Seth Low, the candidate of the Citizens’ Union, or Robert A. Van 'nyck, the Democratic candidate, will be elected Mayor. That one or the other will be chosen all judges whose opinion is worth considering are agreed. The Tammany leaders and the managers of Low's campaign appear to be equally confident. The Republicans, while still profess- ing to believe that Gen. Tracy has a chance of election, have thrown him over and are preparing to stab him in the back. Instructions have been is- sued to election district captains to turn as many votes as possible' to Van Wyck, and the Tammany candidate ‘may thus receive 10,000 Republican votes in the entire city. If he is elected certain machine Republicans are to share in the spoils. Young Henry George will probably hold most of his father’s following, both from reasons of sentiment and from the desire to honor the memory of the late leader and because heis the only candidate who represents in full the ideas for which George contended, It is possible that his vote may be even larger than would have been cast for his father. If there is any loss owing to George's death it will be divided between Low and Van Wyck, and Low will get the larger share. The result of the election is made doubtful by the intensity of feeling among the people, the effet of which cannot be gauged and Which ‘ may destroy all precedents. In the State it is probable that Jus- tice Alton B. Parker, the Democratic candidate for Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals, will defeat Judge William J. Wallace, the Republican candldate= The Republicans will probably retain a majority in the Legislature. Officials Go 'Home to Vote. Washington, Nov. 1.—The departure of the President and Secretary Sher- man for Ohio has been followed by an exodus of department officials and clerks from Washington. Most of those , who left the city yesterday 'will cast To- day a large number of New York peo- ple will leave the city to take part in the New York contest. It is expected that a very large number of voters will also leave to-night and Tuesday morn- lng for points throughout Maryland. Secretary Bliss left Washington Sat- urday night- for New York City. and will vote for Gen. Tracy Tuesday. He frwlll.‘ return to Washington Tuesday night Immediately after the election. , A Line: of narwalkfividence ‘is Worth a Column .of Foreign Testimony. This is a purely local event.

Dean’s Kid- ney Pills came to our notice through reading the papers and thinking they mlght help her, she went to Glenden- ing’s drug store and got a box. Al- though pretty bad at the time, the pills took right hold and she pulled through the attack without giving com- pletely up, something she could not do before using the remedy.

BLANCO VISITS ‘WEYLER. “""""‘ The 'Deposed Captain-General Turn. Over Ills Command. , Havana, Nov. ].—-Capt.-Gen. Blanca had an interview lasting an hour one Saturday with Gen. Weyler, the de- posed Captain-General, on board the steamer Montserrat, on which the lat- ter sailed Saturdayfor Spain, at which Gen. Weyler formally resigned his Corn- mand to Gen, Blanco. The latter then returned to the shore, and the Mont-V serrat shortly afterward started on her voyage. , ' Gen. Blanco has issued an address to the insurgents of the island, in which he’says that he has come to Cuba with the sincere desire of bringing lasting peace. The Government, he adds, has confided to him the duty of implanting reforms and upholding the sovereignty of Spain. In pursuing a broad, gener- ,.... . GEN. BLANCO. ous policy he will endeavor to re-estab- lish liberty and fraternity among the. inhabitants while strengthening their adhesion to the mother country. Gen. Blanco promises justice to all, and declares that prosperity will once more reign in Cuba. The protection of Spain will be accorded to all conform- ing to the law, while all those who re- fuse to do so will be proceeded against with the utmost rigor. Gen. Blanco has also issued an address to the soldiers. When he debarked from the vessel which brought him from Spain he was greeted with a salute of twenty-one ! guns. An enormous crowd assembled and adhesion. The chiefs of the volun- teer corps also waited upon the new to welcome, him, and a deputation of “ Birch Beer, , Autonomists expressed their loyalty Captain-General and expressed similar sentiments. I Weyler’s Departure. Havana; via Key West, Nov. 1.—The demonstration in favor of Weyler on his departure for Spain was not im- portant. A few Spaniards went to the palace before the ex-Captain-General Monserrat, in which he sailed for Spain. They shouted “Long live Weyler!” Long live Spain!” and returend to their homes. That was all. The Au- tonomists, Marquis of Montoro and embarked in the Spanish steamer Senores Galvez, Fernandez de Castro, Juan Ramirez and Cueto called also on Weyler to express their regret at his departure. Weyler has deposited in London, $3,000,000, which will be transferred to Madrid as soon as he arrives in Spain. A Spanish guerrilla force fell into a. Cuban ambush near Managua, within sight of Havana city. The whole force was killed by the insurgents, led by Col. Juan Delgado. CRANK AFTER M’KINLEY. Scholder Held in Chicago—Threat- ened Three Kansas Governors. Topeka, Kan, Nov. 1.—-Edward Scholder, whoiis held in Chicago be- cause of threats against the life of President McKinley, is a Kansas crank who has terrorized three Kansas Gov- ernors, having threatened to kill them if they refused to pay a claim which he. contended was due him from the State. He walked into Gov. Lewel- ling’s office in 1893 and demanded set- tlement, but thepolice locked him up. He said he intended to kill the Gover- nor. Two years later, at Fort Scott, he threatened to come to Topeka and kill Gov. Morrill, and recently he made similar threats upon the life of Gov. Leedy. Then he decided to wreak vengeance upon the head of the national Gov- ernment, and started to Washington. He got as far as Chicago, and, repeat- ing his threat there, was locked up.
