Mukden, Nov. 8.—The Russian and Japanese armies, extending from Bent- siaputze east, to the Liao river west, at places are almost within a stone’s throw of each other. At Bentsiaputze not more than 400 yards separate the advance posts and at Sinchinpu, on the Shakhe river just west of the rail- way and fifteen miles south of Muk- den, the Japanese and Russians oc- cupy the extreme ends of the same village. At Huangshantse the Russian center has thrown advance posts across the Shakhe river. Both armies are still strengthening their positions all along the line. The slightest move- ment on either side is the signal for firing, which occasionally lasts all night. The Russians are using 6é-inch guns on the railway, which must greatly harrass the Japanese. Un- doubtedly the most decisive, if not the greatest Dbattle of the year, will be fought In the vicinity of the Shakhe river. The Russians are confident of their ability to hold their positions. The soldiers are building mud huts for winter quarters. The nights continue cold, but the days are bright and crisp. RUSSIAN FORCE IN KOREA. Flfteen Thousand Troops South of Tumen River.

The remaining 3,000 are operating in strong scouting detachments to the southward.

MAKE FINAL ESTIMATES| ; BOTH NATIONAL MANAGERS CON: FIDENT OF SUCCESS OF RE- SPECTIVE TICKETS. DEMOCRATS PREDICT 270 FOR PARKER CORTELYOU ADHERES TO CLAIM OF 314 ELLECTORAL VOTES FOR ROOSEVELT. New York, Nov. 8—The end of the national campaign finds both the Re- publican and Democratic managers coniident of the success of their re- spective tickets. Chairman Cortelyou of the Republican committee says Roosevelt will have 314 votes in the electoral college. He said: “As a final forecast I see no reason to change my previous statement and adhere to that after receiving full re- ports from all parts of the country. in the past forty-eight hours. I am sat fied that the Republican candidates for president and vice president will car- ry every Northern state, with the pos- sible exception of Maryland and Ne- vada, and will have not less than 314 of the 476 votes in the electoral col- lege.” The Democratic national committee claims that the returns will show 240 electoral votes for Parker. A state- ment issued by the committee de- clares positive belief in the figures given. NEW YORK STATE FORECAST. Both Parties Predict Success for Re- spective Tickets. New York, Nov. 8—With fair weather prevailing from New York to|* Buffalo an extremely large vote is looked for in this city and state. Both sides continue to express the utmost confidence in the result. The Demo- crats have been encouraged by the Brooklyn Eagle’s forecast and the statement by Charles F. Murphy, the Tammany leader, that he expected such large pluralities for Parker and Herrick in Greater New York that he hesitated to give out the figures. Gov- ernor Odell, who is chairman of the state Republican committee, and Will- iam Halphin, chairman of the New York county Republican committee, de- clare that the Dem&cratic-vqie in New York city will be overcome, with a good margin to spare, by the Repub- lican vote in the up state counties. MINNESOTA FOR ROOSEVELT. But the Contest for Governor Is Ex- pected to Be Close. St. Paul, Nov. 8—It is estimated that Roosevelt will carry. Minnesota by over 60,000 plurality. The next legislature, which will elect a suc- cessor to United States Senator Moses E. Clapp, will be overwhelmingly Re- publican. Indications point to the election of all Republican candidates for congress. The only uncertainty is the governorship. R. C. Dunn, Re- publican candidate, says he will be elected governor by over 30,000 ma- jority, while J. A.Johnson’s supporters claim the Democratic candidate for governor will be elected by from 6,000 to 26,000 majority. The contest, however, is expected to be close. CONCEDED TO REPUBLICANS. Size of Plurality the Only Question in Ohio. Cincinnati, Nov. 8.—The Republic- ans adhere to their claims that Ohio will give Roosevelt the largest plural- ity the state ever gave a president, the highest being 69,036 four years ago. They even predict that their average plurality of 75,992 at state elections for the past ten years will be main- tained, if not exceeded, and that they will elect seventeen of the twenty-one congressmen. The Democrats have been conceding the state by 60,000, but now say the Republican plurality will be less than eight years ago, when McKipley's plu- rality was 51,000, The Democrats claim six congressional districts. BY A CLOSE MARGIN. Democrats Claim Parker Will Carry West Virginia. ‘Wheeling, W. Va., Nov. 8.—Demo- cratic confidence in the outcome of the election is increasing. State Chair- man McKinney predicts Cornwell’s : election as governor by a large major- ity and the success of the electoral ticket on a closer margin. Henry G. Davis, the vice presidential candidate, says the state is no longer to be called douhtful. Both Parties Claim Maryland. Baltimore, Nov. 8—Although the campaign in Maryland practically closed Saturday night meetings were held Monday in a number of counties and in Baltimore there were confer- ences of the leaders in reference to important details of the election. Both parties continue to claim the state. Big Vote in New Hampshire. Concord, N. H., Nov. 8—The cam- paign in New Hampshire has closed and there seems to be no doubt but that a big vote will be polled, with ghe result for governor in doubt.

Boise, 1da., Nov. 8 —Interest in the election in this state is largely cen- tered in the gubernatorial race. Re- ublicans claim the state by 15,000 for Fwose\'elt.

No. The Chiropractic and the Osteopath both aim to put in place that which is out of place, to right that which is wrong: but the Path- ology Diagnosis, Prognosis and Movements are entirely different. ‘ One of my patients, Mr. W. A. Casler, has taken both Chiropractic and Osteopoth treatments. The Chiropractic is ten times more direct in the adjustments and the results getting health ten times more thor- ough in one tenth of the time than an Osteopath would. mem“finm.&&m Betting odds favor the success of t.htaL Republican electoral .and: the Demo- omm state ticket.
