Oct. 28.—Only one week remains of the Presidential campalgn. New York State has been the battlefield for two weeks, and will continue to be so until the end. The Democrats are playing for the thirty-six electoral votes of the Empire State, and unless they get them William J. Bryan has no chance of being elected President of the United States. From outward signs The Call sces no reason to change its estimate of the prob- abilities already printed. The Call on October 1 printed an electoral table made up from reports received from correspond- 1 ents who had been in the doubtful States, This table showed the following: For Mc- Kinley, 258; for Bryan, 168; doubtful, 21. A fuller and more comprehensive can- vass of the United States had been made by Sunday, October 21, and The Call on that date printed another table, indicating 281 electoral votes for McKinley and 166 for Bryan. As political weather gauges, one politi- cal demonstration offsets another. If the Bryan reception meant that all of the male spectators intended to vote for Mr, Bryan, and if the Roosevelt affair meant that all of the male spectators intended to vote for McKinley, then Bryan is going to have a vote in Greater New York that will make the State doubtful. It is only on some such assumption that New York State can be considered doubtful. If there is an undercurrent that is concealed by ithe crowds that greet the Republican candidates and made known only by the crowds that_greet the Democratic candi- date, then Nfr. Bryan has a chance of ection. e‘Tch‘l‘s is Richard Croker's theory. It is also Mr. Bryan's. They claim that there fs a tremendous vote swayed by a deep undercurrent that will not make known its intention until election day. Hope of this vote being cast for Bryan is based on the demonstrations in this city and in New Jersey and Maryland, ‘and not upon the greeting extended to the Democratic candidate during his first tour of rural New York. His further journey of the State, beginning to-day. will be watched with close interest. If he has a welcome much more genial than was accorded him before Republicans may well look out. But, all other conditions remaining equal, the Republicans rest easy regarding the outcome in New York. In other States conditions have not greatly changed. The battle In the East reveals undiminished confidence on the Republican side and renewed activity by the Democrats. Reports from West Virginia, Maryland and Delaware vary. The Democrats, feeling the groundswell caused by Mr, Bryan's speeches, think they see a chance to carry these States. On the other hand. sound money Demo- crats, especially in Maryland, are becom- ing more and more aggressive and are marking up their majorities. The Indiana campal] continues with undiminished vigor. gemorrnts report encouragement from campaign contributions from other States. This indicates that the Bryan managers are getting assistance from some unusual sources. The same report comes from West Virginia, where large sums were recelved in at least three coun- tles last week. In many campaigns the battle has been lost in the last two or three weeks of the struggle. Blaine was in the lead In 1884, so all his supporters believe, ‘as late as October 10, vet he had bad luck and worse management. His attendance at the Del- monico dinner and the famous speech of Rev. Dr. Burchard lost him the election. 8o, too, in 1888 Cleveland would have been elected if he had had proper work done for him in New York State. In the last days of the present campaign much hard work will be done. Governor Roosgevelt and Chauncey M. Depew will tour New York from end to end. Mr. Bryan will speak in_the State to-morrow and Tuesday and then will go West, !Peaklng in’ Ohlo, Indiana. Illinois and Nebraska, John B. Stanchfleld, W, Bourke Cockran and David B. Hill will address meetings almost continuously during the week. From the Republican standpoint the wind-up of the New York fight will be on Saturday. All signs point to the conclu- sion that this event will be one of the test civic pageants ever held in the t. It is promised that there will be 140,000 men in hine. 8Such a demonstration would disprove the Bryan claim that there is a groundswell for thelr candidate. If it should prove to be a fallure then Re- publicans might have occasion to be ap- PR betting continues to be five to one o ntin! one on McKinley. - EAGER FOR A LOOK AT BRYAN. Crowd Surrounds the Democrat as He yes From Church. NEW YORK, Oct. 28.—Mr. and Mrs, Bryan breakfasted at 10 o’'clock in their hotel with ex-Governor Willlam J. Stone and several others. After breakfast the party adjourned to Mr. Bryan's room, where the cendidate receiyed -Congress- | the sidewalk and street Special Dispatch to The Call. man _Richardson and severa] local Doll-l ticians. Mr. and Mrs. Bryan then left the hotel and walked through Madison Square to the Madison Square Presbyterian Church. When Mr. Bryan first appeared on the street there were very few people about, but those who were there instantly recog- nized him and with many a shout fol- | lowed him to the door of the church. | The Yale and Harvard boys, who came to | New York with Mr. Bryan on Slturdly‘i were also at the church and occupied | seats a short distance in front of Mr. ryan. Dr. Parkhurst, the pastor, was not in- formed of Mr. Bryan's presence and his sermon was an exposition of a portion of the Scriptures. ord was - evidently passed through the congregation during the service that Mr. Bryan was In the church, for when the benediction was pronounced almost the entire congregation made a dash for the doors and crowded in front of the building. This crowd was augmented by those who were on the street and in the square and by the time the party reached the hotel two thousand persons crowded about them. So dense was the crowd, in fact, that it became necessary for several ark policemen to go In advance of Mr. ryan and clear a way for him. As he disappeared in the entrance of the hotel the crowd cheered. Mr. Bryan slept in hie room from 1 o’clock until 5, when he dined. From the time he finished dinner until § o'clock to- night, when he left the Hoffman House, there was a steady stream of callers. M and Mrs. Bryan were both kept busy shaking hands. Among_ the callers were Congressman _Sulzer Frank _Campbell, James McGuire, ex-Governor Wuliam J. Stone and Congressman Richardson. At 9 o'clock Mr. Bryan a~d party left the hotel for the Grand Central station, where they took the train for Albany. A squad of twenty-two policemen, two roundsmen and a sergeant Kept the crowd back, and a platoon of twenty mounted ‘policemen escorted Mr. Bryan to the sta- tion. Notwithetanding the fact that his departure was not announced in any of the morning papers, the peopl: appeared to find it out in some way, and 3000 were gathered about the hote eagerly awaiting his appearance. As soon as he emerged with Mrs. Bryan a great shout went up. On the way up Broadway to the station crowds of people lined the streets on either side and shout after saout rent the afr. At the Grand Central station Mr. Bryan was at once recognized by the crowds awaiting their trains. and it was with great difficulty that thé police held the people back and kept a passageway for the party. Mr. Bryan's private car, the Rambler, was attached to the New Yerk Central, which was scheduled to leave at 9:30. As the train pulled out with Mr. and Mrs. Bryan on the rear platform there were more cheers. Mr. Bryan will stop first at Albany and will come back to-morrow, arriving at Weehawken at 6:25 p. m., where he will be met by Congressman Bulzer and driven to Hamilton Fish Park for a ten-minute speech, thence to the Academy of Music in Brooklyn, arriving there at 7:30, where he is to address a meeting. He wiil speak also at seven other places in Broo&lyn during the evening. —-— COMMENT OF RUSSIAN PRESS. Interest Displayed in the Coming Election in the United States. ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 28 —The Rus- sian press 1s displaying considerable in- terest in the coming election in the United States. Beveral organs have reached the conclusion that both parties occupy vir- tually the same position.

She desires a foothcld in China, and even in Turkey, as the recent indemnity affair showed. ~American imperialism, unlike that of En‘ll.nd. is not due to economic necessity, since now the market is big enough.
