THEY TALK ABOUT THE REGISTRATION Mr. Goss Belloves Whole Repabl Tieket Will Win and Wr Expects Election of of Mis Ticket, ehows decided Although the “Saturday's registrution republican gains in Omaha reglistration was unusually light, there was & marked increase in the proportion the republican voters bore to the entire number of registrations teported. In 1900 the re- publican voters who registered numbercd 3 per cent of the entire number. Thie vear the ratio of the republicans to representa- tives of other parties is 83 per cent, an fncroase of 10 per cent,” said Charles A Goss, chalrman of the republican county central committee. It is quite evident that many of the voters who deserted the republicans on the money issuc have re- turned to the party “The republican gains are much larger than expected. 1f the weather had been fine Saturday the results of the reglstration would probably have been even more grati- tying to the republicans. The work of getting out voters was greatly hindered by the storm. Many voters who delayed regis- tration until Saturday night refused to leave home on account of the rain. The falling off in the total registration scems to be general throughout the city and the tncrease fn the ratio the republican voters bear to the entire number of voters regis- tered algo seems to be quite universal. ““Members of the republican county cen- tral committee are quite encouraged over the good showing the party has made at a time when there s but little enthusiasm in political circles. There is every Indica- tion that the republicans will carry Douglas county by a very handsome figure. In my opinion, every man on the republican ticket will be elected. All conditions indicate that this Is a republican year." What Chatrman Howell Says. “Many democrats registered yesterday as members of other parties. The result of the registration does not indicate the pro- portional * strength of the republican and democratic parties,” sald E. B. Howell, chairman of the democratic county central committee. “In South Omaha many Bo- hemians who are democrats and will vote the democratic ticket, registered as repub- licans this fall. They are pledged to sup- port Koutsky for mayor and had to register as republicans so they can assist him by voting in the republican primaries. “The bad weather played havoc with the registration, but, in my opinion, both parties suffered equally as a result of the storm. From reports that have come to me through democratic workers, I know that the party is well organized throughout the county and am confident that it will turn up with more than fts share of the county offices. “It is impossible to judge the party strength from the registrations. 1 know of many men in Omgha who registered as re- publicans but who will support the entire democratic ticket. Then, there are many republicans who will support part of the democratic ticket. The split in the repub- lican forces improves the chances of the democrats George A.

Mr. Daugherty, who registered at the Merchants' from Salt Lake City, lived up {o last March at Ogallala, Neb., where he owned and operated a cattle ranch. He also took a prominent part in politics, and served a term as state oll inspector. In March he attended a patfonal convention of live stock men at Salt Lake City and while there fell in with the Cleveland capitaliste, who interested him In Wyoming oil. “We have got down to the point where we are actually producing oil now.” sald Mr. Daugherty, “and there are seven or eight wells under way.

Anna Johneon, colored, alias Cocaine Anna, fired two shote at her sweetheart George Dinglishbiel, ahout 10 o'clock Sun- day morning, one of which took effect in his left shoulder. The wound is painful, but not serious. The woman escaped and the police have not been able to locate her Dinglishbiiel was awakened in his room, 1015 Capitol avenve, by a knock on the door. In reply to hls question as 16 what was wanted the answer came: “This is Anna, and I've got something for you." He arose and opened the door to find pistol thrust in his face. He sprang back and attempted to slam the deor, but the woman followed him in, firing as she ad- anced. One of the bullets grazed his left cheek and the other buried itself in his shoulder. The woman then dropped the pistol and ran away Dr. Borglum, police surgeon, attended the injured man in his room, but did not succeed in locating the bullet Dinglishbiel professes not to kaow woman's reason for shonting him and says she was probably “dopy.” Amusements C——————————— Orphenm. With the usual Sunday “packed 1o the doors’” houses at both the matinee and night performances at the Orpheum, the new week's vaudeville bill was given its initial presentation. If the merits of the various acts were to he judged by the ap- plause bestowed upon each of the seven fumbers on the program, each of them would “e entitled to the headline position upon the bill. Judged critically the per formance can be truthfully said to be en- titled to the distinetion of ranking as one of the season's strongest at this theater. Felix and Barry, who occupy the position of headliners, are old favorites here, and despite the fact that this is the third time they have presented almost identically the same act in Omaha, the audience seemed to find as much amusement fn it as though it were new. eorge Felix, a clever knockabout man, had adopted the oldtime McNish silence and fun idea, elaborating it enough to bring it up to date, and the result is one of the best turns of its kind in vaudeville. Mile. Lotty is another local favorite. Her poses plastique are novelties in the line of electric effects, the colorings belng rich and delicate and gorgeously beautiful. Madge Fox, a former Omaha girl, sings coon #ongs in a rather original way. She in- tersperses graceful acrobatic work among the verses of her songs. The balance of the program includes Buoman and Adelle in a laughablo sketch, Parros brothers, ath- letes, the tossing Austins and Nugent and Fertig. Boyd “Lost in New York,' a melodramatic effort, recently unearthed from the are chives of antiquity, was the offering at the Boyd Sunday. Age seems to have had little effect upon its drawing powers, since the theater was filled at both Sunday perform- ances. Jerome Sykes of the “Foxy Quil- ler” company, which passed Sunday in Omaha, and several others of the prin- cipals, occupied a box. When asked how he enjoyed the performance he made the following characteristic reply: “It's not bad enough to be good and too good to be bad.’ Miaco's Trocadero. Fred Rider's “New-Night-Owls Bur- lesquers”” opened the week at Miaco's Trocadero, playing Sunday afternoon and evening to crowded houses. Two lively burlesque. skits, “In a Crowded Hotel" and “Lost in a Female Seminary” were pre- sented, twenty young women appearing in them to good advantage. Six speclalty artists presented up-to-date vaudeille turns. TEAM AND WAGON GO WRONG Why Plasterer Garl Charges P Speck with Larceny as B terer ee. Charles Speck, plasterer, was arrested Sunday morning, charged with larceny as bailee, the complaining witness being John Garl, another plasterer, living at 2021 Parker street. Garl says he loaned Speck his team, wagon and kit of tools last Fri- day morning with the understanding that they would be returned Saturday night, but they were not forthcomin, Sunday the tools were found in a pawnshop. Speck explains that he sent the team and wagon home by a man named Sweeney and that If they haven't turned up yet it must be Sweeney went to the wrong ad- dress. He can't account for the tools being in the pawnshop.

SHORTAGE OF VOTE IS ELEMENT OF DOUBT Republicans Have No Falth in the Efficacy of OfF Year and Expect to Continune in wer by Usunl Majority. C 'INNATI, 3.~Following thelr closing rally here last night and the re- ceptions to Celonel James Kilbourne, dem- ocratic candidate for governor, and other democratic leaders today, the democrats are claiming that they will elect part of their ticket in Hamilton hardly probable tuat this will affect the local jogislative candidates, but it will ma- terfally affect the state ticket if the demo- crats should secure part of the county | oMces here | The republicans lost both Cuyahoga and Lucas counties two years ago, when Gov- ernor Nash had a plurality of 45,000, Al- though the result at Cleveland and Toledo is likely to be very close, yet the condi- tions are not considered so demoralizing as those were two years ago, The vepublicans concede that the result is doubtful in Franklin county, in which the state capital is located. The democrats are confidently claiming the county, In which both Governor Nosh and Colonel Kil- bourne reside. There is some opposition to Governor Nash on account of his ap- pointments and it is claimed that the popu- larity of Colonel Kilbourne, especially among the workingmen, will add strength to the democratic ticket in that county The republicans can lose both Cuyahoga and Franklin counties and still \ave a majority in the legislature for senator if they carry Hamilton and Lucas countles, as seems most probable. Full Ticket to Be The election this year is for a full state ticket and county tickets, as well as mem- bers of the legislature. During the last half of the century the democrafts have elected only four governors and with a single exception they were elected in years following presidential elections, which have for that reason become known as off years, The republicans have had uninterrupted control of the state ever since the first election of McKinley as governor, in 1881, They deny that any so-called off year cou- ditions exist and claim to be in better con- dition for than for years. The managers on both sides are more reluctant about giving out estimates than usual. This is due to the uncertainty as to the shortage of the vote on both sides and ‘the repub- licans say it prevents them from predicting as closely as usual the extent of thelr plurality. The question of local option bas been actively debated, but with the brewers and liquor organizations on one side and the Ohio Anti-Saloon league on the other side this issue is considered as a standoff between the two leading parties. The only large city in which this issue has figured is Columbus. It is directed solely at mem- bers of the legislature and some of the “leaguers” have been opposing Senator Foraker's re-election by fighting candidates that would support him.

EACH CLAIMS NEW JERSEY Republicans Make E Retnin S t Effort to ent, Held Decade, e Govery Over n NEW YORK, Nov. 3.—The gubernatorial campaign In New Jersey was brought to a close last night with the leaders of both parties claiming victory for their respec- tive candidates. It was one of the most stubborn ever fought in the state, the re- publicans leaving no stome unturned to hold the state machinery which they have controlled for nearly a decade, while tha democrats struggled to take it from them. Both sides are tonight claiming vietory. The republicans base their hopes on two things. First, the large majority which must be wiped out by the opposition; and, second, on the fact that they think the voters, pleased at the prosperous condition of affairs in the state, will return a re- publicun governor as an evidence of their indorsement of the national administration and as an assurance (o the present head of the administration that they have confi- dence in him. 1t was principally on the latter issue that the party made its fight. The democrats clalm victory chiefly on the personal popularity of their candidate ftor governor, James M. Seymour. He Is very popular with the working classes and his strength Is acknowledged by his op- ponents. He has thrice been elected mayor of Newark by large majorities Both state committees have compiled tables made up from reports from various counties of the state. The republicans, by their figures, show that Franklin Murphy, their candidate for governor, who is also chatrman of the committee, will.be elected by about 10,000 majority The campaign in Philadelphia has been unusually active, the interest centering In the fight for district attorney. .The reg- ular republicans, backed by the city and state administration forces and United States Senators Penrose and Quay, placed in nomination John Weaver for district a torney. while the union party and Munleipai league named the present incumbent, P. ¥. Rothermel, a republican A fraction of tbe democratic party, bow- county. It is| DALILY BEE: MONDAY, ever, refused to join the reformers and placed in regular nomination Willlam Wil- king Carr, a democrat and postmaster of the city during the Cleveland administra- tion It is generally admitted. however, that the real battle at the polls on Tuesday will be between the._ respective adherents of Weaver and Rothermel. Many promi- nent democrats, among them ex-Governor Robert Pattison, have been active par- ticipants in the campalgn in the interest of Rothermel. The latter was elected in 1808 by a majority of 73,000, but at that time had the suppert of the regular re- publican forces, now opposing his re-elec- tion. PASTORS PLEAD FOR PURITY Advice Emanates from New York Pal- pits Regarding Tickets Worthy of Sapport. EW YORK, Nov. 3.—The feature of tho local political campalgn today was the ac- tive yart taken in it by the pastors of the churches. Thirty-one clergymen and two leaders of independent church socleties ad- vertised themselves to speak on the issues of the election and all these clergymen took for their stibjects the alleged maladminis- tration of the present city offices. Rabbi Schulman urged on his hearers the support of the fusion ticket because of the revelations concerning vice in the tene- ment districts. All the Protestant preachors reported except two talked for the fusion ticket, asserting that vice and unsanitary conditicns existed here and a change was needed. The exceptions were Dr. David G. Wylia of tha Scottish Presbyterian church and Dr. Vandewater of 8t. Andrew's Episcopal church, who advised their congregations to NOVEMBER 4, examine the two tickets closely and vote for the best men on them. Henry Frank of the Metropolitan Inde- pendent church advised his hearers to vote “agalnst bosses, whether they came from this city or Tioga county.” Father J. Duey of St. Leo's Catholle church was &lone n those reported who spoke on the election for the Shepard side. One of the features of the fusion cam- paign has béen the work of the women's campalgn committee. A report {ssued to- day says this committee had distributed several hundred thousand copies in English and German of a pamphlet purporting to be an expose of viea In the city. The democrats also had a women's campaign committee actively at work during the canvass, but no-report of its labors has yet appeared, COLD WAVE MAY CUT IN IOWA Republicans Figure that the Larger the Total Vote the Larget Thelr Plurality Will Be. DES MOINES, Nov No new develop- ments have arlsen today in the election outlook, beyond the severe change in the weather, which, If continued, is likely to affect the turnout at the polls. Chairman Spence of the republican com- mittees estimates a total vote of about 440,000, of which, he thinks, the republican ticket will get 250,000, the democratic ticket 175,000 and the remainder scattering. Thie would give 75,000 plurality for the repub- lican ticket and, avy change from these figures would be caused by the size of the total vote—the larger the total, the larger the republican plurality. Frank Stuart, secretary of the democratic state committee, thinks the republican es- timates are too large, but refuses to give any figures of his own. He says the re- publicans have put up their strongest men and he thinks this fact should bring out nearly the fufl democratic vote. J. H. Campbel!-thairman of -the prohibi- tion state'commbttee, says he-ls satisfied with the prospects for a large vote for the prohibition ticket, the largest, fn fact, ever cast for that ticket in this state. He esti- mates the minimum vote of his party at 25,000, COLONELS CALM TO THE LAST Campaign in Which Important Issues Are at Stake Closes With- out Incident, LOUISVILLE, Ky., Nov. 3,—As the four democratic candidates for United States senator ‘in Kentucky, - ex-Governor = Mc- Creary, Congressmen Wheeler and Smith and Judge Cangrill, decided not to make a canvass from the stump and as Sepator Deboe was the only announced republican candidate the campaign in this state pre- liminary to the election on Tuesday, when half of a state senate and a new lower house will be chosen, has been without special feature. In the city of Loulsville the democratic and the republican exocutive committees have worked bard for their municipal tickets and the mayoralty now held by a democrat_is at stake. Tohight each side claims the election by from 5000 to 7,000 majority. TERMS OF THREE TO EXPIRE Knights of Ak« n Wil Eleet Trio of Governors This Yenar The annual meeting of the Knights of Ak-8ar-Ben, to be held next Monday nigbt, will be notable as the last to be held in the present den, which will be razed be- fore another year passes. The terms of three members of the board of governors expire this year. They are: Gould Dietz, J. G. Martin and George P. Cronk. The latter, at least, will not be a candidate for re-election, while the others have not as yet Indicated tbeir desire in that direction. There is little doubt of their re-election it they will accept. Thus far Treasurer Penfold has jealously guarded the financial statement and no fa- formation of what it will disclose has leaked out. Tt is thought, however, that It will show at least a small balance in the treasury. Preparations will be completed this week for the banquet, which is a prominent fea- ture of the mecting.

NEEDS OF POSTAL SERVICE Fast Mail Centract frem Oalifornia te Philippines is Urged. PNEUMATIC TUBES NOT YET PERFECTED Department Does Not Approve of Au Puarchase Ontright Until System in More Fully Put to WASHINGTON, Nov, 3.—The annual re- port of Setond Assistant Postmaster Gen- | eral Willlam Shallenberger, made publie’to- day, urges regular direct fast mail service between the Pacific coast and the Orient, the re-establishment of pneumatic tube service generally and the closer separa- tion of city mail by postal clerks of rafl- 4y trains rather than by clerks of the mailing diviston after its arrival in the general postofice, Under the last-named proposition the en- tire force engaged in distributing the mall ready for the carriers would be under onw management and congestion in a postoffice could be overcome by the temporary de- tail of rallway mall clerks then off duty. The city distribution in postal cars has been assumed indirectly by the raflway mall service, supplanting the tormer prac- tice of having clerks from the clty post- office go out some distance on the road to meot incoming trains. Constant demands are now being made for still closer separa- tion by having the raflway mail clerk or superintendent in charge take the out- golng mall from the publlc and see that it is expeditiously dispatched and also deliver the Incoming mail properly made up for the carriers. Mr. Shallenberger suggests for the present a test of the practical operation of this proposition at postofices whose gross re- ceipts are $500,000 or more a year. No Conmtract to Philippines. The PostoMce department has no tract for direct mail service between the Pacific coast and the Philippines, mall being carried by government fransports or by steamers to Hong Kong and thence by steamers of other countries to Manila, “It now seems probable,” says (he re- port, “‘that If this government should with- draw its transports, as may be done at any time, with the understanding that its pas- sengers and fast freight trafic, together with the increasing volume of its mails, might go to the steamship company which submits the most perfect proposal for quick and regular service, a favorable contract could be secured. “The mall service and commercial Inter- ests would be greatly advanced by fast mail steamers adhering strictly to schedule time between the Pacific coast and Manila and calling at other ports at regular in- under contract with this govern- con- nenmati be Service. The request for $500,000 appropriation for poeumatic service is renewed, as a basis for the beginning of the service, which, when fully established, it is stated, will! olve a annual expenditure of approxi- mately $800,000. The department expresses its opinion and that of the commission of experts that investigated the subject that the outright purchase of the system should not be considered by congress pend- Ing a moré complete test. The report shows that on June 30 last | there were 267,357 miles of steamer route service, 183,358 of railroad routes, 45,77 of raflway postoffice car routes and almost 3,000 miles of electric and cable car routes. The annual rate of expenditure for all classes of domestic’ mall transportatio service has increased $5,940,285 since 1 year. It is. contemplated, that the new contracts for steamer malil service, begin- ning next July, shall provide for delivering mail into boxes along nearly all of the routes. The practice of granting to con- tractors general permission to sublet their route service has been discontinued. There were 825 casualties In the railway mail service during the year. WU LOYAL TO NATIVE LAND Chi e Minister Feels No Surprine at 11 and Will Return to Orient When Sammoned. WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.—Mr. Wu, the Chinése minister, returned to this city to- night“from his trip to Ann Arbor, Mich, where he went to deliver an address to the students. Replying to a question‘on the subject Mr. Wu sald that he had not re- celved any nofice of his recall to China, a step which a Pekin dispatch of yesterday’s date sald had been determined upon, nor bad he -recelved any intimation tbat he would be asked to return. . As he has heretofore expressed himself the minister would not be surprised in th» least if such action were contemplated by ks government, as he now has served on the misslon here for more thim a year longer than the customary time allowed by the Foreign office at any one place, viz, three years. He is slmply holding over now and his recall and the appointment of a successor would be simply in line with established practice.
