Speeches were also made during the day at Cortland, Binghamton and at sev- eral other points. The day's work closed with a meeting at Rochester late to- night.

In conjunction with the Herald, The Call has had for some time employed inall the doubtful States a corps of trained political observers. For weeks they have been sifting conditions and preparing estimates ber 6 and what members of Congress they will elect. This work will be finished to-day and will show beyond a doubt who will be elected President and which party will control the next House of Represen- This last statement is based upon the knowledge of the accuracy of similar forecasts previously made under the auspices of the New York Herald. In 1884 that paper predicted the election of Grover Cleveland, in 1888 the success of Harrison, in 1892 the second triumph of Cleveland, and in 1896 the sound money sweep for McKinley. In conjunction with The Call, this year the forecast has been even more thoroughly made, and it is safe to say that what The Call and Herald foreshadow to-morrow is This forecast has been made without regard to the political bias of the newspapers directing it. The men engaged in the work were instructed to note conditions as they existed, to cast aside partisan- ship and get at the truth. This they have sought to do, and while the result may make unpleasant reading for some, it is given in all candor and honesty and in the belief, strengthened by past experience, that it B o o o R S X XM M S M M ANEY PERISH WHILE | ATTEMPTING TO FORD A CREEK I | Drowning of Two Keswick Residents Returning From Odd Fellows’ Encampment. ESWICK, Oct. 19.—H. D. Camp- bell and George A. Bridge, mem- bers of the staff of the Mountain Copper Company of this place, lost their Ilives while fording Rock Creek this morning. Campbell and Bridge went to Redding last evening to attend the ball given at | campment. Early this morning the two men left the ballroom and went to the | home of John W. Hare, where they slept several hours. At 6:30 o'clock they left Redding and drove rapidly toward Keswick. Dav was breaking anl it was raining hard as they came to Rock Creek, usually an insignificant stream, but swollen to a torrent by the night's heavy downpour. There were no eye-witnesses to the attempt to ford the creek, but at 8 o'clock a man discovered a badly erippled horse standing at the edge of the creek, just below the ford, with the wreck of a buggy near by. The horse was recog- nized as the ‘driving animal of H. Campbell. "Word was sent to the smelter office at Keswick and search partles were organ- ized. Forty men were dispatched to Rock Creek. They hunted downstream for two miles, to & point where the creek empties into the Sacramento. Near this junction the body of Bridge was found. It was covered with sand, only an arm protrud- ing. All day long ths search for Camp- bell's body was continued, but no trace could be found. The creek had fallen so rapldly that if his body remained in that stream it would have been recovered. It is believed it must have been swept out % ; L] Both men were unmarried.

J. Bryan. In his speech, which was one of the lengthiest delivered in his present tour, Senator Hanna bit- | terly denounced Mr. Bryan for what he | termed *his attempts to slander me in my own State.” and the speech of Senator Hanna was re- ceived with mingled cheers and hisses. The first of the two days’ speechmaking in Nebraska by Senators Hanna and Frye culminated to-night in three big meetings here, including an outdoor * meeting in front of the Lincoln Hotel. Only two meetings had been planned for, but so tre- | mendous were the crowds that attempted to force their way into the Opera-house |and the Auditortum h Senator. | Hanna that he was finally asked to ad- dress an overflow meeting from the bal- cony of the hotel run into Lincoln from many points in Eastern and Central Nebraska and the parade which took place to-night included a dozen of the town uniformed marching clubs, ganizations.

Immediately after | dinner Senator Hanna, standing on the balcony of the hotel, ands for some time with the crowds that filed by So great was their number that Senator Hanna was finally compelled to beat a re- treat. Shortly after 8 o'clock the parade formed and amid a blaze of flambeaus and fireworks Senators Hanna and Victor Dol- liver were escorted to the Oliver House. | Senator Frye going to the Auditorium. When Senator Hanna was introduced he was recelved with a roar of applause Senator Hanna spoke at some length, tak- ing up the silver and anti-imperialist ues, and finally referred to the charges which Mr. Hanna said had recently been made by Mr. Bryan that the Republican | campaign managers had entered upon ex- to shook. tensive bribery in order to secure the elec- | tion of the Republican ticket. “In regard to that statement,” Senator | Hanna sald, “before an audience in Lin- coln, I want to hurl it back in his teeth and tell him it is as false as hell it comes to personalities I am willing to stand before the American people on my record as a business man and let him stand on his. I have been In business forty years; I am employing 6000 men, pay the highest wages, treat them like men, | ana they all respect me, and when Mr n or any other man charges upon me | —and I am willing to appropriate it all, as |T am chairman of the board of man- agers of this Republican campaign—wich any such methods as those, I propose, as I sald, to hurl it back and denounce him as a demagogue—in his own town.” Senator Hanna then referred to Mr. Bryan's alleged reference to him as a “labor crusher,” made first during his Senatorial campalgn in 1597, and con- tinued: “I want to remind every man that a man who in a contest will drag an honor- able name into the mire for the sake of making votes is not worthy to be consld- United States, and I belleve there are thousands of people in the State of Ne- braska who resent it as an insult to their intelligence and their ideas of fair play and justice; because when a man has the opportunity through newspapers or | through the public rostrum to make | charges too trifing to be denied, and | those charges go undenied and enter into the minds of the people whom the man so charged has no opportunity to convince— any man who will use those tactics to fur- ther his own selfish ambition is not fit Lo be constable.” From the Auditorium Senator Hanna was driven to the Lindell Hotel, where he spoke for about five minutes. Here again there was much confusion and hisses and shouts for Bryan mingled with cheering. Senator Hanna was then driven to the Auditorium. He spoke for about twenty minutes, discussing Industrial conditions for the most part. He received an ova- tion when he concluded and the crush to shake hands with him was again so great that the police had to clear the way to the carriage. — - SENATOR HANNA'S TOUR.

They say that there is another side to this question. They call it commercialism.
