TOKIO, Nov. 5.-4 p. m. It is reported
that the Japanese have occupied Wantal
hill, sunk several transports and have set
fire to a battleship at Port Arthur. There
is no confirmation of the report.
Wantal hill Is one of the extensive semi
circle of forts defending Port Arthur. It
Is situated in about the center of the semi
circle between Antse mountain forts and
Bungchow fort, which is Bltuated on an ad
Joining hill. ' The capture of Wantal hill,
It has been pointed out In dispatches from
Port Arthur, means the dividing of the
eastern fortified ridge. The Japanese had
previously and unsuccessfully attacked
Wantal hill, particularly during the latter
part of August.

IRISH POLITICS BOIL
(Continued from First Page.)
stlVuents In the town hall Coleralne, this
wvek, Mr. Atkinson, M. P., attorney gen
eral for Ireland, criticised the devolution
scheme In detail. He said that what must
strike one most about the scheme was the
Intimate acquaintance it seemed to show
with colonial administration and its pro
found Ignorance of Irish affairs. He was
willing to assume that the scheme was
not a one man affair and that Lord Dun
raven and the couple of dozen noblemen
and gentlemen associated with him under
stood the bearing of all the things they
put their algnatures to. He suggested
that they should be willing to put their
scheme to the test of a public meeting In
Belfast or elsewhere, at which each of the
noblemen and gentlemen would explain
and defend the particular paragraph for
which b claimed to be responsible.. He
maintained that, as in 1856, Ulster held the
key of the situation, and unless Ulster al
lowed some traitors to creep in and misrep
resent Ita views It need have no fear.
Ulster, which did not quail before the at
tack of Mr. Gladstone, could easily with
stand the assault of twenty-five noblemen
and gentlemen, many of whom did not un
derstand what they talked about.

and corporations and hH continued assaults
upon the chairman of the republican na
tional committee. Judge Parker made thli
the Issue of his party and forced the letter
of defense from his opponent. Issues raised
In platform, In speeches of notification and
replies; In le'ters of acceptance and In
literature of the natlonnl committees were
swept away In a day and upon the brink
of the election the parties confront each
other with the assertion and denial of the
two candidates the leading feature. What
others have said or may ssy and what
managers may claim or deny, all goes for
nothing In the fare of the remarkable
spectacle of two presidential candidates
closing a contest with public utterances of
such vigor and directness that no one can
mistake their meaning.
CONGRATILATIONS FOR ROOSEVELT
President Receives Many Messages
PriUInn Ills Reply to Parker.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 6. Official Wash
ington was Absorbed In one topic today, in
th closing hours of the presidential cam
paignthe reply of President Roosevelt to
the charges of campaign corruption by
Judge Alton R. Parker, the democratic
candidate for the presidency. Throughout
the day the president was overwhelmed
with callers, many of whom desired to see
him concerning his statement Issued last
night. Congratulations poured In upon him
from many sources. They were conveyed
to him personally and by mall and tele
graph. With only a few of his personal
friends did the president discuss the sub
ject. He transacted as usual the routine
business of his office and late In the after
noon participated In a game of tennis,
which, with horseback riding, constitutes
his ordinary recreation.
So far as Washington Is concerned the
camphlgn which now is drawing to a close
hns been notably quiet. Interest In the
campaign hts been Intense, however, being
evidenced by the great number of govern
ment employes, officials and subordinates,
who have gone or are going to their homes
to cast their votes. Nearly all of the prom
inent officials of the executive departments
ere absent from Washington. Tonight only
two members of the cabinet are In the city
and both of them will be at their homes on
election day.
President Roosevelt will leave here next
Monday night fcr Oyster Bay. He will be
accompanied by Secretary Loeb and several
White House attaches, who, with the presi
dent, will vote In Oyster Bay. The presi
dent will arrive In Oyster Bay at 10:15 a. m.
and Is scheduled to leave there at 11
o'clock. The party la due to arrive here
bout 6:30 o'clock Tuesday evening.
The president will receive returns of the
election at the executive offices Tuesday
night. As usual the returns will be taken
by the regular corps of White House teleg
raphers, under the direction of Major Ben
jamin F. Montgomery, chief of the tele
graph' cypher bureau. The White House
telegraph room will be In Instant com
munication with every city of the country.
and officials of the state committees will
be obliged to supply the president with the
latest available Information by a direct
wire service. The president will receive
the returns In his private office, where he
will hove a small company of intimate per
sonal friends.'
In previous campaigns both the repub
lican and democratic committees main
tained headquarters for their congressional
committees in Washington, because of the
accessibility to political data and cam
paign documents which they desired to
distribute to the country. This year, how
ever, only the headquarters of the demo
cratic congressional committee were lo
cated here. They have been directed by
Representative Cowherd of Mlmourl, chair
man, and Charles A. Edwards, secretary.
An Immense nmount of work has been
done by the committee In circumstances
not at all times easy. Today the head
quarters practically were closed, the work
of the committee having been completed.
Chairman Cowhord has gone to his Kansas
City home, but Secretary Edwards will
keep the headquarters open until after
election.
Tonight Secretary Edwards expressed
confidence as to the result not only of the
national campaign, but of the congressional
contest. He .said he Is certain of Judge
Parker's election to the presidency and
that the democrats possibly would have a
majority in the next house of representa
tives. The democrats expect to carry the Wis
consin district now represented by Mr.
Bubeock, chairman of the republican con
gressional committee, and that In Indian
apolis represented by Mr. Overstreet. an
other official of the same committee. , In
New Tork Secretary Edwards expects td
gain the Albany district, represented by
Mr. Southwick, and the Twenty-flfth dis
trict. represented by Mr. LIttaur. He ex.
pects that tho democrats will defeat Rep
resentative Capron of Rhode Island. The
democrats expect to gain two seats In the
house from Kansas, one of them being that
of Representative Curtis; three in Ohio,
two in Connecticut, two In California, tiiree
in Illinois, three In Indiana, one in Iowa,
one in Montana, two In Nebraska, five In
Pennsylvania, three in West Virginia and
five In Wisconsin.

CHICAGO", Nov. 5. The campaign closed
In Illinois tonight with Innumerable meet
ings In all parts of the state. In Chicago
there was a political meeting In every ward
and In a large number of the voting pre
cincts. The democrats ended their cam
paign with an overflow gathering at the
Coliseum and the distribution of ham sand
wiches to all who could get near tho
tables. The attendance equalled that at
the "Harvest Homo Festival" held at the
same "place a week ago. There was some
talk of a procession In Chlougo, but the
Idea was abandoned, as It was believed the
money required for torchlights and fire
works could be used to better advantage.
According to the republicans the electoral
vote of the state will be cast for Roosevelt
and Fairbanks. The state central commit
tee as a body has given out no fla-urea. hm
Individual members claim a rtlurnlltv nf

the democrats seem confident that they will

The republicans, on the other hand, look
iur a piuramy or rrom 28,000 to 40,000. The

FIERCE BTRIGGLE IX JiEW YORK
Both Parties Claim Pluralities for
State and National Tickets.
NEW YORK, Nov. 8.-Endlng in excite
ment and fevered Interest, In violent con
trast to the tameness of Its earlier stages,
the campaign In this state for the selec
tion of national electors and state officers
closed tonight by speeches for the democ
racy by Alton B. Parker In Brooklyn, by
Bourke Cockran and Mayor George u. nc
Clellan In New York, by D. Cady Herrick,
nominee for governor. In Schenectady, and
by David B. Hill In E4mira, and for the re
publicans by Governor Odell In Brooklyn
and Frank W. Hlggins, nominee for gov
ernor, in Mlddletown and Port Jervle.
The last day of the contest has been
marked by Intense public Interest owing
to the personal nature of many of the
speeches made. When Judge Parker first
appeared hb a speaker In advocacy of his
election the boldness of his statements con
cerning his opponents challenged public at
tention, which became more Intense with
the denial by President Roosevelt of the
Cortelyou charges, and 7ft Governor Odell's
speeches, in which he said Mr. Parker had
been interested in the United States Ship
building company, and said he could prove
It because he, Odell, had sold Parker $25,000
worth of that corporation's stock. Mr.
Parker was handed both of these state
ments at his hotel last night, and when he
announced that he would make reply to
night all other points of political Interest
were lost sight of In the general desire to
know what the Judge's reply would be.
Not since the election of Cleveland In
1R92 has the New York democracy made
such an elaborate organization throughout
the state with a view to getting out the
vote as it did this year. The party ma
chinery, which during the Bryan cam
paigns was In the hands of the Nebraskan's
friends, was once more under the control
of old time leaders, and David B. Hill, for
mer governor, and William E. Sheehan,
former lieutenant governor, were most
prominent in the party counsels. Speeches
were made by Mr. Hill. Richard Olney,
Bourke Cockran and others, and, ' as a
climax, Grover Cleveland spoke at a
notable meeting at Carnegie hall In this
city.
Tonight, when the last word had been
said and all the work done, both sides
claimed the state for both the national and
state tickets. The republicans, while ad
mitting that Higglns vote might be lower
than Roosevelt's, declared that their guber
natorial candidate surely would be elected.
In reply the democrats said they not only
would elect Herrick, but would carry the
state for Parker. Charles F. Murphy,
leader of Tammany hall, said today that
the majorities for both state and national
tickets In "the Greater New York would be
unnreeedentedly large.
Governor Odell, who Is also chairman of
the state republican committee, expressed
complete confidence that Roosevelt's ma
jority In the state would be very large and
that Higglns would win by a Urge vote.
The campaign for the state ticket was
the most strenuously contested and the bit
terest In a personal sense In many years,
surpassing In these respects even the his
toric campaign of 1894, which resulted In
the' loss of the state to the democratic
party. From the time that It became ap
parent that .Senator Thomas C. Piatt, so
long the undisputed leader of the New
York state republicans, had been displaced
and that Governor Benjamin B. Odell was
In control of the party machinery, the ef
forts of the democratic managers have
been directed against Mr. Odell, with a
view to showing that he had been guilty of
Improper official acts and that his accept
ance of the state chairmanship while gov
ernor was in violation of all political
ethics.
The republicans In their speechmaking
declared that Mr. Herrlck's nomination was
dictated by David B. Hill; that Mr. Hill
was In complete control of the convention
at which the nomination was made, and
that he contemplated securing the election
of a democratic leglalature so thst he
might be returned to the senate. Mr. Hill
announced that It was his Intention to re
tire from public life January 1 next. This
unexpected news created a sensation at the
time, but was lost sight of later in the
heat of the struggle between the two par
ties for the control of the Empire state, Its
state administrative offices and the legisla
ture, which Is to elect a senator to succeed
Chauncey M. Depew.
Ol'TLOOK IN THE Bl'CKEYE STATE
Democrats Claim Six Congressmen
and Republicans All But Four.
CINCINNATI, Nov. 5. Congressman Gar
ber, chairman of the democratic state
committee tonight issued the following
statement:
Ths campaign In Ohio, this year has
been conducted on exactly similar lir.ea
by both the democrats and republicans In
so far as the respective national commit
tees have been concerned.
The democratic nations! committee con
sidered Ohio Irrevocably lost and furnlshe
us no help. The republican national com
mittee considered Ohio safe and their state
committee fared but little better.
The socialist vote will approximate 80.000,
mostly from republicans. Tho populists
will poll less than 20ix.
The democrats will elect congressmen
In not less than six dlHtrlcts, which will
be a gain of two In the Ohio delegation
and there is great expectation that we may
add two additional districts, to the six
above, making the total number of demo
cratic congressmen eight. The democratic
state ticket will run munh ahead of other
parts of the ticket. Bandies, for secretary
or state, who Is opposing L.ylln for a
third term, will run ahead In every county
for the reason that be will receive the
support of many rtpubllcans who are op
uosed to third terms.
Bryan's remarkable Ohio tou. with the
speeches that he made, wiped out any dl-
tausractinn mat may .iv prevailed
against Parker and the democrats of Ohio,
without money and based wholly upon Its
voluntary organization, will next Tuesday
make the most creditable showing they
have made since ISS'2.
Senator Dick, chairman of the repub
lican state committee. Issued the follow
ing statement:
Indications are that the total vote nf
Ohio will exceed that for president In

In Colorado has been urusually animated

meetings right up to the eve of election,

Cripple Creek and Tellurlde by military
force, and has pledged himself to the same
line of action In the future If re-elected.
Alva Adams, democratic candidate for gov
ernor, has promised not to take sides In
labor disputes and to hold the troops sub
ordinate to the civil authorities should their
services be required.
BOTH SIDES CLAIM WEST VIRGINIA
Republicans Seem More Confident for
National Ticket.
PARKERS BURG, W. Va., Nov. 6.-The
West Virginia campaign closed tonight
with both candidates for governor too
tired out to make speeches. John J. Corn
well, the democratic nominee, was ex
pected to close his campaign at Mont
gomery, Fayette county, tonight, but was
too nearly exhausted to make the trip and
cancelled his appointment last night. W.
W. Dawson, tho republican nominee,
ceased speaking several days ago. Tho
campaign has been the most vigorous In
the state for many-years. Each side seems
confident of the result.
The republicans seem more confident
than the democrats of carrying the state
for the national ticket, but the democrats
show greater hopefulness on the state Is
sues. The outlook for congressmen is
somewhat mixed. The democrats concede
that two of the districts are hopelessly re
publican, but claim the other three are in
doubt, while the republicans claim all five
are safe. Much Interest centers In the
legislature, which will elect a successor tQ
United States Senator Scott and It is ad
mitted on both sides that there Is a possi
bility of the democrats having a majority
of that body on Joint ballot.
RIVAL CLAIMS IN HAWKEYE STATE
Republicans Expect 150,000 Plurality,
Democrats Concede OO.OOO.
DEB MOINES, Nov. 6 Iowa tonight closed
the most spiritless presidential campaign
In its history. Not at any time hus there
been any doubt about the general result
and there has been consequent lack of In
terest and enthusiasm. Chairman S. B.
Morrissey of the democratic state central
committee concedes Roosevelt 80,000 plural
ity. Chairman R. H. Spence of the repub
lican committee claims at least 155,000. The
result will be approximately 100,000 repub
lican plurality. The democrats claim Judge
Wade's re-election in' the Second district
and the chances favor his success, although
the vote will be close. The democrats also
claim the First district, where a bitter per
sonal fight has been made on Congressman
Thomas Hedge, republican incumbent, but
he has a large normal republican plurality
to depend upon. In all of tho other nine
districts the republican congressmen will be
elected. The speaking campaign of the re
publicans closed tonight with a tour of
Secretary Shaw in northwestern Iowa, The
democrats conducted no speaking except
In the Second district.
LOCAL CAMPAIGN IN KANSAS
Only Local Isaacs Discussed In the
Sunflower State.
TOPEKA, Kan., Nov. 6. The campaign
In most of the Kansas counties ended to
night. Little attention has been paid to
national iMues, and the contest has been
fought on state questions.
D. S. Dale, the democratic nominee for
governor, and E. W. Hoch, the republican
nominee, have both made a thorough tian
vass of the state,
The democrats have concentrated their
efforts on the legislature and state treas
urer. The republican nominee for treasurer,
who Is now serving his first term, has
been confronted with charges affecting" his
administration of the affairs of the office,
and this has given the democrats the hope
that this office can be won for them. The
railroad rate question and the alleged ex
travagance of the last legislature have been
urged by the democrats as reasons for the
election of thelt ticket.
GREAT INTEREST IN MISSOURI
Republicans Claim Both State and
National Tickets.
ST. LOUIS, Nov. 5. The campaign in
Missouri has been attended by more than
ordinary interest because of the bribery
crusade which has constituted an absorb
ing iSBue
The republican state committee declares
the republicans will be victorious In both
the state and national tickets. Chairman
Nledrlnghaus stated that this calculation
is based on the belief that the democrats
will not poll nearly their full strength on
account of the disaffection over their state
ticket.
The democratic state committee asserts
that reports from throughout the state In
dicate that their entire ticket will be elected
by from 60,000 to, 75,000 majority, and that
the national ticket vote will not differ ma
terially. WISCONSIN IS FOR ROOSEVELT
Both Parties Claim the Election of
the State Ticket.
MILWAUKEE, Wis., Nov. 6.-That the
Roosevelt and Fairbanks electors will
carry Wisconsin on Tuesday next, there
seems no question. Reports received at
the Republican state central committee
headquarters, give the LaFollette official
every reason to believe tha tthe governor
will be re-elected by a plurality ranging
between 60.000 and 95,000. On the other
hand, the democratic figure from their re
ports that Peck will carry the state from
26,000 to 40,000.
In the congressional fight, the republicans
are practically sure of carrying six of the
eleven districts and the democrats one.
The legislature, which is to elect a
United Btates senator to succeed NSenator
J. V. Quarlf. will probably result In a
deadlock.

What Sulphur Docs
For the Human Body In Health and
Disease.
The mention of sulphur will recall to
many of us the early days when our
mothers and grandmothers gave us our
dally dose of sulphur and moUutsea eery
sprMig and fall.
It was the universal spring u.-id fall
"blood purifier," tonic and cure-all, and
mind you, this old-lathloned temeuy wan
not without merit
The idea was good, but the remedy waa
crude and unpalatable, and a large quan
tity had to be taken to get any effect.
Nowaduys we get all the beneficial effects
of sulphur in a palatable, concetiira.ei
form, so that a single grain U lar mor
effective than ft tableppoonfui of the crude
sulphur.
In recent yeais, research and experiment
have proven that the beat sulphur for me
dicinal use Is that obtained irom Calcium.
(Calcium Sulphide) and sold In drug a.oies
under the name of Buart's Calcium Waf
ers. They are small chocolate coated pel
lets and contain the active medicinal prin
ciple of sulphur in a highly concentrated,
effective form.
Few people are aware of the value of thU
form of sulphur In restoring and maintain
ing bodly vigor and health: sulphur, acts
directly on the liver, and excrotory organs
and purines and enriches the blood by the
prompt elimination of waste material.
Our grandmothers knew this vthen they
dosed us with sulphur and ino,aae every
spring and fall, out the crudity and l,n
purlty of ordinary flowers of sulphu:' were
often worse than the dl eau, and cannot
compare with the "modern concentrated
preparation of sulphur of which Stuart's
Calcium Wafers is undoubtedly tho U-si
and most widely used.
They are the natural antlUole for liver
and kidney troubles and euro constipation

Dr. 11. M. Wllkliu while expei iin.-mlng
