Stewart; chances in favor of Bryan. fhe republican state chairman's latest claim gives Ohio to McKinley by 100,000. As Viewed by a Correspondent. Special Dispat to The ening Star. COLUMBUS, Ohio, November 2—Proba- bly no one in Ohio whose opinion is reliable in political matters believes the electoral Vote will be given to Bryan, though the democratic leaders, headed by Chairman McConville of the state committe im the state is in doubt, and that the chance: are in favor of the free silver movement. ‘The republicans confidently ciaim the state by not less than 60,000, possibly 100,000. Betting is all one way. The most extrava- gant stakes, with big odds, do not call forth a bet that Bryan will carry the sate. It is the general belief of unbiased judges that the free silver movement,which was strony in Ohio at tirst, has steadily lost ground. and that the democratic gain will not ex- ceed the populist vote 54,000, if it equais that. The demoeratic bolt is strong and organized. The Palmer vote will be 5ma‘l, most gold democrats voting directly tor McKinley. The state may be put down cer- tain for McKinley from 35,000 at least to Possibly 120,000. ‘The democrats are sure of the fourth and sevente=nth congressivaal districts. They will probably carry also the fifth and thirteenth. The twelfth and twen- ty-first are claimed by them, and by some are classed as doubtful, but the republicans are likely to carry them both. The Tepub- ‘licens are certain to carry all the other fifteen districts. oR CALIFORNIA. A lieuterant governor will be elected, nine electors, seven Congressmen, a legislature (one-half the senate holding over), which will choose a United States Senator to suc- ceed George C. Perkins (republican). Con- stitutional amendments are to be voted on to extend the suffrage to women, to per- mit of the use of voting machines and :o provide for the taxation of “moneys, cred- its, bonds, stocks, dues, franchises and all other matters and things, real, personal and mixed, capable of private ownership.” There are fifty-three counties in she State, and in 1899 the voting population was 462,250. In the presidential election of asy2 the vote was: Dem., 1181 O27; pop., 25311; pro., plurality, 147. In the ‘state election of 1894 the vote for governor was: Dem., 111,044; rep.. 110,78: pop. 204; pro., 10,561. Democratic ‘plu: rality in California the democrats and populi have fused. The populists get four and th democrats get five of the eleccors, and the S.096. Republican populists three Corgressmen io the demo- erats’ fonr. John D. Spreckels, republican national committeeman from California, says: “Will carry California for McKinley by 10,000 to 15.40 plurality, and elect four out of seven Congressmen. The democratic state chairman says: “Bryan's majority from ail returns now compicte in our possession will reach 40, ‘Ou. We will elect six out of seven fusion ‘Congressmen at least. The state sen- ate will probably be republican by a mall majerity. In the lower house the *usionists will be largely in the majority, ,securing the election of a silver United States Senator to succeed George C. Per- kins, republican.” _. A special to The Evening Star says there 4s complete fusion in California between the fpepulists and democrats on the electoral ‘ticket and on the congressional tickets ex- cept in the first and fifth districts. The fusion extends to candidates for the senate and the assembly, and in many cases to gounty offices. The combined democratic nd populist vote exceeds the total repub- ean vote of former elections, The Nevada stiver mine owners residing 4n California have a strong organization and are furnishing the sinews of war for the Bryan campaign. They have flooded the Btate with silver literature. The business men of the cities are for McKinley. San Francisco is expected to xo republican by 6.0 to 10,000, If the plurality reaches the higher figure it may carry the state for the "republicans. MINNESOTA.

The prohibitionrists have two electors in nomination, James P. Pinkham and Ole Kron, and the socialist labor party has placed only one elector in the field, Edwin E. Fisher. The republican state ticket is as follows: For governor, David M. Clough; lieutenant governor. John LL. Gibbs; secretary of state, Albert Berg; state treasurer, August 'T. Toerner, attorney general, Henry V Childs. The democratic fusion state ticket con- sists of: For governor, John Lind; for lieu- tenant governor, J. M. Bowler; for secre- tary of state, Julius Hinrich; for state treasurer, Alexander McKinno: for at- torney general, John A. Keyes. The prohi- bition ticket consists of: For governor, William J. Dean; for lieutenant governor, Clarence Wedge; for secretary of state, John McKonkey. William B. Hammond is the socialist labor candidate for governor and Albert A. Ames has been nominated as an independent candidate for the same of- fice. F. W. McCutcheon, the national comm! teeman of the gold democrats of Minneso‘a, says of this state: “McKiniey’s plurality, 25,000 to 35,000. This would elect Clough, republican, gov- ernor by small majority. Governor Ship seems, however, close. Legislature se2ms certainly republican. Republicans should secure five, probably six, Congressmen. Close fights in third, fifth, sixth and sev. enth districts. Think Heatwole, re} can, will carry third, and Morris, republi- can, should beat Towne in sixth by small majority. Fifth (Minneapolis) district very close; may go either way.” Th chairman of the republican state committee claims as follows: “Our last poll of Minnesota shows Mc- Kinley’s majority at least 15,000. Have strong hopes of more. Minneapolis 1s un- certain, and may go 5,00) <ither way. St Paul is safe. Also first, second, fourth and fifth congressional districts are sure repub- lican. Chances are good for carrying the third, sixth and seventh districts.” ‘The latest prediction of the democratic state chairman Is as follows: “The sentiment in favor cf Mr. Bryan grows stronger and more enthusiastic ev- ery day. Reports received from every county in the state makes ft safe to pre- dict that the Chicago ticket will carry Minnesota by 25,000 majority.” As Viewed by a Correspondent. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. i MINNEAPOLIS, November 2.—The cam- paign in Minnesota has wound up with a strong tide McKinleyward. Privately, the popocratic managers admit ‘hat they have no hope of winning the Minnesota electoral vote, and they give public evidence of this by the turn they have in the last few days given to the campaign. Their efforts have been concentrated on governor and Con- gressmen. The republicans have made a very shrewd sortie in behalf of Governor lough by raising the theory that if Lind s elected governor capital will be driven sway from investment here, just as it 13 claimed it has been in Kansas and Colorado by populist state government. This argu- ment has unquestionably caused a good many anti-Clough republicans to decide to vote for Clough, and may not imprubably result in Clough’s pulling through by a plurality considerably less than that of McKiniey. The first, second ind fourth di: tricts are certain to return republican Con- gressmen, while the third, fifth and sixth are likely to do so. The seventh is very close. W. B.C.

Not a day Dut reports come from every county as: serting that we are steadily gainlag new converts. A poll of thirty counties shows that twenty-eight will give majorities for Bryan, The precinets polled show an aver- age of sixteen republicans who will vote for Bryan. If the average in the thirty counties holds good throughout the entire state it will amount to over 30,000, which would indicate a majority cf not less than 6,000 for Bryan. This calculation es- sumes that the gain from prohibition votes would equal the vote for Palmer and Buck- ner.” The republican state chairman's claim ts as follows: “We are sure of a 20,000 ma. jority, and believe it will exci that figure.
