MANASAS, Va., November 5.—The pollt- {cal battle in this district 1s about over. All three parties claim the district, but the populists are practically out of the fight; in fact, have never been in it, and the contest from start to finish was be- tween the republicans and democrats, as it has all along been conceded that the populists would draw about equally from each of these parties, thus not affecting the result. Mr. Meredith's majority in 1892 was 7,500, but at that time no republican was in the field, the republican vote being divided between the populist and demo- cratic tickets. The usual democratic major- ity in the district is 4,000. This will un- doubtedly be cut down ‘some, but to what extent remains to be seen. Notwithstand- ing the hard work of Mr. Meredith and his co-workers there still exists more or less apathy on the part of the democrats. Another thing that will lose him votes is dissatisfaction caused by the distribution of patronage. This district es nearest to and surrounds Washington on the Virginia side and a large number of the people want- ed to serve their country in Washington offices, and all could not be accommodated Mr. Meredith said this morning that he estimated his majority all the way from 1,500 to 3,000. Prince William county will give 400 majority, Loudoun 500, Fauquier 500, Orange 300, Culpeper 200, Fairfax. 400, / Alexandria city’ and county 300, while the counties of Stafford, Louisa and King George are conceded ‘to the republicans by 200 to 400 each On the other hand, Mr, McCaull has made a hard fight, and’ has undoubtedly won votes, and notwithstanding the former heavy democratic majorities says he is con- fident of success. Stafford, King George and Louisa counties he claims by large majorities, as well as Culpeper county, his home, and the others, ne says, will be so clctre as to throw the balance in his favor. A conservative estimate by one who has thcroughly traveled the district puts the democratic majority at 2,000, Mr, Meredith voted for the unconditional repeal of the Sherman law, but in this campaign has everywhere declared himself for free silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, and that he would hereafter vote for {t when opportunity of- ered, Mr. Mason is for free silver first, last and and all the time, and says the tariff is only a side issue. Mr. McCaull has declared for free silver, though the convention that nominated him refused to go on record favoring it on a 16 to 1 basis. The district ts principally agricultural and embraces some of the finest Piedmont lands, and the arguments have mainly been for and against the Wilson bill. The campaign has been mark- ed by the utmost good feeling on both sides, The new Walton election law goes into effect for the first time. The campaiga closes here today with speeches by Eppa Hunton, jr., for the democrats and Brad. Beverly and K. H. Tyler for the populists. —__— IN THE FIFTH MARYLAND. Close of the Campaign — Demoer: aining Contidence, Special Dispateh to The Evening Star. HYATTSVILLE, Md., November 5.—The situation in the fifth congressional district, so far as concerns Prince George's county, is becoming more and more interesting as the election approaches. Both the demo- cratic and republican parties are fighting over every inch of ground to gain the day, and will continue their energetic campaign until the last moment. At the opening of the campaign a disrup- tion in the democratic ranks was imminent, but the differences, however, have been, the democrats say, satisfactorily adjusted, and the party will succeed in casting something like its usual vote. The democrats held a meeting in Grange at Beltsville Friday night, which was addressel by their candi- date for Congress, John G. Rogers, and oth- ér prominent democrats. The republicans held large meetings Saturday at Landover and Fulton. The latter meeting was ad- dressed by Capt. Potter and other well- known republican speakers, and the former by Geo. Holmes and several local repubii- cans, E. M, Burchard, populist candidate for Congress, heid forth in Bladensburg last Saturday evening. After Mr. Burchard had finished his address, Fritz Dambach, a young democrat, entered the rostrum and denounced both the candidate and his popu- listic doctrines. The result in Prince George's county is regarded as somewhat doubtful. The districts of Martboro’, Queen Anne, Nottingham, Bowie and Brandywine have always been republican strongholds, on ac- count of their large colored pvpulaticn, while Spauldings, bladensburg, Vansville and Laurel districts give substantial dem- ocratic majorities, Kent, Surratts, Piscat- away, Oxon Hill and Aquasco districts are close, but usually go democratic. Should the republicans increase their majorities in their strongholds and carry two or three of the close districts, or even succeed in maintaining their usual majorities in the five districts first mentioned, and cutting down the democratic majorities in the four large democratic districts, they wiil surely capture the county. But should the dem- ocrats carry all the close districts and re- ceive their accustomed majorities in their above mentioned strongholds they will carry the day. It is reported that the re- publicans are spending much money in Bowie district, and hope to increase their majority there. The democrats are working hard to carry the close districts, and to hold their own in their strongholds, The republicans seem confident of carrying the county, while, on the other hand, the democrats are claiming it by 150 majority. A prominent democrat from Culvert county stated that it was his opinion that the republicans would rot carry the three lower counties of the fifth congressional district, namely, Charles, Cal- vert and St. Mary's, by more than 900 ma- jority. Anne Arundel county democrats claim that they will carry that county by 600 majority. The democrats claim Howard county by 400 majority. They also expect to receive their usual majority in the two districts of Baltimore. county and the seventeenth ward of Baltimore city, which are included in this congressional district. Should these claims be realized, the democrats can lose Prince George's county and still elect Rogers and Wells. The republicans, however, count on getting between 1,200 and 1,200 majorities in Charles, St. Mary's and Calvert counties. They also expect to greatly reduce the ma- jority of the democrats in Anne Arundel county and to cut down the democratic vote in Howard county, the seventeenth ward of Baltimore city and the two districts in Baltimore county. Should they sueceed in their undertaking, they can elect their can- didate, even though Prince George’s should give a fair democratic majority. The result is being watched with close interest, and bets are being made all over the congres- stonal district, the odds being slightly in favor of Rogers. The campaign will close tonight with meetings frf the seventeenth ward of Ralti- more city and a big democratic meeting in Bladensburg. The meeting at Bladensburg will _be addressed by State Senator Rogers, candidate for Congress; William Kilgore of Rockville, Ernesg P. Baldwin, first auditor of the treasu farry E. Davis of Wash- ington, R. Ford Combs and J. C. Rogers of local fame. Dr. Chas. A. Wells will preside over this meeting. INDIANA. Republicans Seem Likely to Elect the Majority of the Congressional Dele- gation. Spectal Dispatch to The Evening Star. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., November 5.—The strongest fight In Indiana this year was along the congressional line, and it seems reasonably certdin today from a non-parti- san view that the republicans will elect a majority of the delegation, with good chances for eleven out of the thirteen. The bitterest fight Is against “Objector” Holman in the fourth, Bynum tn the sev- enth, Brookshire in the eighth and Mc- Nagny in the twelfth. Watson, the young candidate against the “treasury watch dog, has made a strong fight, and will reduce Holman’s najority to at least 500. Con- servative republicans doubt Holman’s de- feat. Patronage fights have aided in doom- ing Bynum, prominent democrats quietly conceding his defeat. He is being sacri- ficed by his party for the county ticket at Indianapolis. Charles L. Henry, his op- lle ponent, is a popular manufacturer of the natural gas belt. The vote at Senator Voorhees’ home, Terre Haute, will determine the outcome in Erookshire’s district, the eighth. Republi- cans claim the district will go 800 for Faris, republican. Even money is wagered at Fort Wayne that J. B. Leighty defeats McNagny, demo- crat, but such bets are not good ones. Mc- Nagny may save himself, as the district is strongly democratic, although the party is badly split up on account of sensational locat exposes at Fort Wayne. Congress- man Conn, by refusing a renomination, split the democratic organization in the thirteenth district, and Royce, republican, has almost a sure thing. George W. Steele will succeed Martin in the eleventh. The ninth and sixth districts will be re- publican by majorities from 6,000 upward. Democracy carried the tenth in 1892 by 42 votes, out Hatch, republican, will have a handsome plurality this year. Cocper is having a struggle to return from the fifth, with the chances somewhat in favor of Overstreet, republican. Stockslager, who defeated Jason Brown for the third district rominaticn, will prob- ably bé successful by a reduced plurality. The second is reliably democratic, and the first will give Hemirgway, gepublican, prob- ably 1,000 margin. ‘The republican state committee claims the state by 20,000. The democrats practically concede it, but not by more than 3,000. Ten thousand will be in the neighborhood of the republican majority, which depends for its size on the energy of the republicans in strong congressional districts, sixth and ninth. Republicans claim they will haye fifty-five members in the jower house of the legislature, with a chance of carrying the senate. If the legislature is republican, the state will be redistricted. —_—_s—— MASSACHUSETTS. Republicans Are Predicting a Land- lide Tomorrow. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. BOSTON, Mass., November 5.—Repub- lieans are predicting a landslide for tomor- row. The 35,000 plurality of last year will not satisfy them; they feel that a consider- able increase over tiuse figures will be re- corded this year. The most common repub- jican prediction is 50,0v0 plurality. it will be a matter of pride to them if they can make a clean sweep of the thir- teen congressional districts. They feel cer- tain of carrying twelve, and are hopeful that Jesse M. Gove may pull through to ve them the full thirteen, They are quite confident that H. H. Atwood will win in the tenth. 1t is in Atwood's district that the sharpest politics are being played. Last Friday Con- sressman Mckttrick and McNary, his demo- cratic rival for party honors, held a joint debate, that drew crowds from all parts of the city. It was a case of Greek meeting Greek. McNary has resigned his office of water commissioner,that pays $5,000 a year, in erder to show his own confidence in his success. Unfortunately his friends cannot share his hope. The democratic vote is to ve so nearly divided in the middle that At- wood is likely to win. He has met opposi- Uon in his own party, and there is an inde- pendent republican in the field now, F. W. Peabody, who has attacked him in issuing a most scurrilous circular. ‘The democrats expect the Peabody circular will have the effect of cutting down Atwood’s vote. On the other hand, it seems to be the »pinion of republicans generally that the circular is so very bitter that it will create sympathy for Atwood. The democrats think it is nonsensical to suppose that Fitzgerald can be beaten by Jesse M. Gove. They are as sure of carrying that district as if the votes were already counted. Outside of Boston there are two congres- sional districts that the democrats are not without hope of carying. The one in which they think they have the best chance is the ufth, now represented by Moses 'T. Stevens of North Andover. In George W. Fitield of Lowell they have a candidate who is an im- portant man in his section of the state, and one who they believe will poll a heavy vote. The republican candidate, William S. Knox of Lawrencc,has not heretofore proven him- self a strong candidate at the polis, and the lemocrats think there is a chance that hé may fail of success this year, as he did two years ago, when he was a candidate against Mr. Stevens. The other district is the thirteenth. They really think there is litte chance of defeat- ing John Simpkins, but “Lob” Howard has been such a vote getter in the past that the democrats believe it just as well to keep an eye on him until the vote is counted. The vote of igoston is an interesting sub- ject for speculation among the politicians. ‘There has never been a year when the offl- cers of the city committees have been so reluctant to give estimates of the vote here. ‘There is no doubt that the democrats are a trifle shaky about getting out their vote— that is, a large, full vote. They haven't the money to do it with to so great an extent as in other years,and to assist voters to the polls is an expensive business. In some sections of the city, especiaily in the tenth district, every voter will be provided with a free ride to the voting booth. H. H. Atwood has sent to the voters in ward 24, who have to so some distance to the polls, a notice of when and where they may find barges in their neighborhoods, which will provide for their accommodation. No tenth ward man should walk on election day. There will be carriages enough for all. The republicans practically closed their campaign on Saturday, with a rally in Faneuil Hall, at noon, and a monster de- monstration in the evening at Music Hall. The democrats’ final big meeting was at Faneuil Hall at noon today. ‘There is prospect of good weather, and @ solid vote will be recorded. —__. LOUISIANA, Republicans Have a Fightt: m the Third District. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. NEW ORLEANS, La., Noveber 5.—The planters claim a fair majority of 5,000 in this district. The democrats have made a spirited campaign in behalf of Gen, Meyer, and Mayor Witzpatrick, a shrewd politician and chairman of the state central demo- cratic committee, says he has no doubt of democratic success, Gen. Meyer himseif feels confident of re-election, In the second district Coleman's candi- dacy has been hurt by the nomination of Buck, as the latter has a strong hold on the German element, which is large. It is feared that trouble will occur in the coun- try wards of this district as the planters there are resolved that counting-out meth- ods shail not prevail and there are fears that this will be resorted to. The third district is about the safest of the districts in which the republicans have a fighting chance. Judge Beattie is per- sonally very popular, and Mr. Brice does not profess “a hope of carrying the dis- trict, save by a comparatively small ma- jovity. here is little likelihood that there will be troubie during the election in New Or- leans as the policing is admirably arranged. The greatest fear of the leaders is for the country precincts, where the people are not so easily subject to law and order. News is received already of the attempted murder of J. K. LeCabe, sheriff of Iberia parish, who was shot at several times by concealed parties. LeCabe 1s a democrat and a man of great prominence in politic: Gen, Behan, leader of the planters, says that the party is resolved that no’ fraud shall be perpetrated in the election, and they will resist any attempt to deprive them of their rights. ‘The last mass meeting of the campaign was heid on Saturday night on Canal street at the base of Clay statue, and was attended Chance by 5,000 people. ‘The candidacy of Gen, Mercer and Mr. Buck was enthusiastically indorsed. I talked with several of the leading gen- tlemen then present and they expressed great confidence of the ability of the dem- ocrats to carry all three of the threatened districts. The planters have interested themselves in the prosecution instituted by Zacharie against two negroes for attempted false registration, succeeding in getting one case discharged. The labor troubles, which have been of late a more absorbing topic locally than the subject of politics, do not bear any political construction whatever. It is true That the troubie is mainly a difference be- tween the races, but it will nat figure in the voting at all. ‘The planters have used them me camp: fal to nt out the de ies of democratic govern- ment. The causes which have led up to it are entirely local, being chiefly the fail- ure of the negroes to limit the number of their employes to 150. The negroes have put over 250 to work, and the whites re- fused to allow them to work any long In the first district the methods by wh Mr. Kernochan had himself nominated have hurt his candidacy materially, as the negroes do not relish the way they were shut out of the meeting of the commit! which put him up. it is understood thi his candidacy will prevent many from vot- ing at all. A report is in circulation that Italian emigrants are being colonized in Plaquemines in order to be used on elec- ton day, but the planters deny this. In the north the re-election of Boatner and Robinson ts conceded, there being @ practical unanimity in both the districts which have nominated those gentlemen on the democratic ticket. Mr. H. W. Ogden has been nominated in the district formerly represented by Senatcer Blanchard. The ro- publicans also concede this district. Their efforts are concentrated in the first, second and third districts, where the candidates on the republican side are H. P. Ker- nochan, Coleman and Beattie, and on the democratic side are Meyer, Buck and Price. Buck is a new man, of German descent, and very popular. * A vigorous campaign has been made for him, Governor Foster, Senators Blanchard and Catfrey, ex-Senator Jonas and other listinguished people speaking for him. The situation in these districts is very doubt- ful. Registration offices in New Orleans, which les partly in the first, partly in the second, were closed a week ago, the white registration exceeding 8,500, the col ored being about 1,20. ‘The latter element have made repeated charges against Regis- trar Zacharie of unfairness of manipulating dummies in the lines, so as to keep the negroes from getting their papers. > — NEW HAMPSHIRE. Republicans Claiming Governor a Both Congressmen, Special Dispatch to The Etening Star, CONCORD, N. H., November 5.—Will the vote tomorrow be a landslide, or just a plain, every-day republican victory? That is the question that fs agitating the political prophets today. In this state, where the election of governor is usually thrown into the legislature by the closeness of the pop- ular vote, a plurality for Busiel of 5,000 would be equal to the large majorities that have been given in Vermont and Maine this fall, while 10,000 would be a Waterloo for the democratic party in this stata. Here is an authoritative republican. view of the situation from one of the members of the state committees: “We shall carry th® state for Busiel by a majority of 5,000 or 10,000, Our meetings have been more largely attended than in any prior cam- paign for many years, and the attendance is made up in part by democrats, who are uninking deeply on the issues presented to the people. Aimost every town reports democrats who openly proclaim their in- (eudion of voting the republican ticket as @ rebuke to the mismanagement of the demo- cratic party in Congress. Both republican candidates for Congress will be elected by pluralities in excess of 2,000. in a speech at Manchester, Congressman ilair's opinion of the result was expressed much to the same effect, when he claimed a majority for Busiel of not less than 10,000, and 5,000 for Sulloway, republican candi- date for Congress in that district. The re- publican vote, by the accession of demo- crats, bids fair to be largely in excess of that cast in the presidential year. The democratic state committee concedes the election of Busiel, but think it may be thrown into the legislature, which will be largely republican. ‘They do not give up the congressional districts, and hope to carry at least one of the two. A state committee man said today: “In the first congressional district the demo- rats have vigorously attacked Sulloway’ record, he having formerly been a green- backer and free-trader, and having voted for Cleveland against Biaine in 1884. But perhaps the most savage attack that has been made was the publication of what nator Chandler had said of him after Sulloway has accused the Senator of pay- ing money for votes when he was last chosen to the Serate. ‘These charges of Chandler against Sullo- way have been freely distributed over the listrict in pahphlet form, and passed out to voters, as they have gone in to attend the campaign meetings that Sulloway has addressed, and cannot have been without some effect. In the second district Henry M. Baker of Bow is the republican candidate for re- election, and 1s opposed by Farmer Mc- Daniel of Springfield, one of the state leaders of the Patrons of Husbandry, and a well- known and popular citizen. The fight against Mr. Baker has been largely per- sonal and very spirited, and, as his elec- tion was carried by a small plurality two years ago, the democrats hope to be able to land their candidate. —_——_ KENTUCKY. Democrats Pretty Sure of Six Con- gressmen and May Elect More. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. LOUISVILLE, Ky., November 5.—Ken- tucky will tomorrow elect eleven Congress- men, four judges of the court of appeals and local officers in each county. The reg- istration has been very heavy, especially in the large towns and cities. The campaign bas been sharp, more so than ever before in this state. The republicans have made in aggressive fight and the result of the election in several districts is tn doubt. The democrats will in all probability elect their congressional candidates in the first, second, fourth, sixth, seventh and eighth districts, though if any of these are doubtful it is the seventh. Breckinridge’s friends are not warming up to Owens in an encouraging way, and it ts difficult to size up this dis- affection. The ballot is secret and many knives will be pushed into Owens by demo- crats, All reports from the third district are fa- vorable to the election of Hunter, republi- can. In this, the fifth, Evans, republican, will receive a majority of the votes, but the machine will make a desperate effort te count him out. McDermott, the democratie candidate, is a Catholic, and the A. P. A, order {s helping Evans. There has been a change in the situation in the eleventh within the past few days, and it now looks as if Adams, republican, would be re-elected, though ho has an in- dependent republican against him to divide the party vote. The chances are favorable for the election of Pugh, republican, in the ninth. He is a good speaker and has made a thorough canvass, while. opponent, Rolla Hart, an old farmer, has made « still hunt because of his inability to speak in public. Judge Buckner, democrat, will doubtless be chosen for the unexpired term in the tenth, while Hopkins, republican, seems a winner for the full term. pemecsanlleonactnanit MICHIGAN. Republicans Likely to Have am Um usually Overwhelming Victoi Special Dispatch to The Evening Star, GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., November 5.— If signs count for anything, the republl- cans tomorrow will have such a victory as has not fallen to their lot for many years, Gov. Rich will be elected by a plurality anywhere from 35,000 to 50,000, The legis- lature will be overwhelmingly republican, and the democratic congressional claims have been reduced to hope in the second and tenth districts, but even these are not certain, The democratic campaign has been carried on practically without funds and torn by the referee discord. They have made little headway against the republican campaign, and have been absolutely un- able to make any use of the scandals in the present state administration or the incom- petency and extravagance of the last legis- lature. The northern part of the state has been allowed to go almost by default, and some of the countles will be practically unanimous for the republicai In the cities some work has been done, but in every town the anti-referee element, comprising the active party managers, tp former campaigns, whom Dickinson refused to consult in distributing the offices, have been holding back, neither contributing financially nor helping. Dickinson has taken no active part in the campaign, ex- cept to furnish funds and bring speakers into the state, and will not even come home to vote from Washington.
