league, when asked today ror his opinion
concerning results of next Tuesday's elec

"I believe Judge Taft will have a ma

erably over thl- figure. Senator Veesey
will have 10.000 or more majority for gov

by not less than five to one."
Asked aa to the truthfulness of ths re
port concerning a deposit which he was
willing to wager on the general results of
the election. Chairman Richards replied
that more than a week aro he deposited
more than $5.oro in the James Valley bank
of Hufon which he offered to stake on the
reiults In South Dakota that Taft, Craw
ford and Vessey would carry the state. At
noon Monday no part of the deposit had
been covered.
HITCHCOCK CKRTAIX OF RESIST
National Republican Chairman Gets
Llna on Kiev t Ion.
NEW YORk, Oct. 27. Chairman Hitch
cock of the republican national committee
said at national headquarters today that
the Information on which he la to base
the forecast of the electoral vote which
he will give out at the end of the week
Is reaching him rapidly and that already It
Is sufficient to convince him that many
surprises evidently are In store for elec
tion day.
From the !. ders of the party In Mis
souri the reports are far more optimistic
than they have been hitherto, he said, and
In consequence he was almost tempted
to expect that state to show up In the
republican column. He did not expect to
carry Kentucky, but believed there was
promise of a few electoral votes there for
the republican ticket, and Mr. Hitchcock
added that Tennessee also apparently Is
preparing some surprises.
As to Ohio, l,ero was declared to be no
worry. It was defxrlbed as absolutely
safe. Nor was Indiana giving the repub
lican chairman any concern, but he was
not so hopeful, he said of Montana.. and,
Nevada. Howvver.' these' latter two were
the only atara tv, .
- im iuipsinqil
that were In doubt, according to his way
of thinking. New York was declared to
be like Ohio, namely, absolutely safe.
Both Mr. Taft for the presidency and Gov
ernor Hughes for re-election were said to
be assured of victory at the polls In this
state.
ANXIOUS, DAY ON STEAMER
Machinery on Fornesala Breaks Down
and Ship Is Sport of Ninety
Mile Gale.
NEW YORK, Oct. 27.-The SOS passengers
who arrived today on the steamer Fir
nejsia from Glasgow rpent thirteen anxious
hi'Uis at sea last Wednesday while tho
vessel floundered helplessly, the sport of a
ninety-mile gale. The misadventure was
due to an accident In the engine room, a
cross-head having slipped out of place,
necessitating an abrupt s'lerxing of the
machinery.
For more than half a day the machinists
strove to make the delicate adjustment, ex
hausting every resource of shlpcraft. For
a hundred times at least the' vagrant cross
head was within a halr'a breath . of Its
home, only to be sent wandering again by
a violent lurch of the vessel.
Meantime the passengers pretty well di
vided their time between an effort to keep
themselves from too sudden contact with
their surroundings and the plying of the
captain with anxious questions. The
steamer had early hoisted the signal, "not
under control," but no other cr.ift was
sighted and finally the patience, of the
machirjiats was awarded and the Fur
nessla was but a day late In arriving.

Defense Free from Charge of Con
aplraey In Case Involving; the
National Bank of orh
America.
NEW YORK, Oct. T!. The defense In the
esse of Charles W. Morse, financier, and
A. H. Curtis, former president Of the Na
tional Bank of North America, who are on
trial In the Ur.lted States court here, scored
several telling points today. The presenta
tion of evidence bv the prosecution had
been concluded before adjournment c.f court
yesterday and the d-fense before opening
Its case had made motions to have quashed
the Indictment against their clients. These
motions were denied, but after hearing ar
guments on motions to strike cut certain
specific portions of the Indictments, Judge
HotiRh ruled In favor of the defense. By
his direction, two counts of the Indictment
ore charging conspiracy and the ther
misappropriation were stricken from the
record.
In dismissing the conspiracy charge Jidge
Hough said that, from the evidence which
had ben adduced, he could not see how
the minds of the two defendants could act
In concert. In view of the evldenra, he
said, he could rjot permit a verdict
on the conspiracy count, and, there
fore, he directed that the conspiracy charge
be dismissed. The count In the Indictment
charging misappropriation In connection
with a tfi0,OCO not given In payment for
stock purchased from Mr. Morse also was
dismissed by Judge Hough on the ground
there was no evidence of criminality. The
part of the Indictment which remains, and
which Judge Hough refused to dismiss
when application was made by counsel for
Morse, alleges false reports, misapplica
tion, over certification and the use of funds
of depositors for speculative purposes.
DOWN TO CONFIDENCE GAME
(Continued from First Page.)
Thompson with one of Its best appointive
places In the diplomatic line was a bigger
deal than selling out to the enemies of
Frank Tyrrell and Congressman Pollard,
and It was too big a deal for the man
agement to carry through to a successful
conclusion.
The Star has a lot of stockholders scat
tered over the state; good, strong, relia

as the democratic scheme to buy up re
publican papers was published soma of
these stockholders got busy on the Star
management. How the Bryantzed man
agement of the paper got out of Its agree

see the Bryan dope It Is publishing and
no doubt will continue to publish. For

Kelfer Depends on Friends.
One candidate for office, who Is absolutely
In the hands of his friends, Is J. Warren
Kelfer, jr., candidate for the legislature
from Nuckolls county. Mr. Kelfer haa
been unable to devote any time at all to
hla own candidacy owing to the fact that
he has been acting as chairman of the
republican state committee.
Mr. Kelfer was one of the leaders In the
last legislature and took a prominent part
In Uie enactment of all the legislation of
that session. As the head of the finance
committee In the house he did splendid
work, and his experience and level headed
ness was of great value to the state.
It Is reported an awful hard fight Is being
put up by Mr. Kelfer's opponent, and as
the republican majority Is usually less
than 21X1, Kelfer's friends are under the
necessity of humping themselves early and
late.
Around ths headquarters, however. It Is
not believed that the republicans of his
district are going to permit the state chair
man to be retired because he Is not able
to be upon the ground and personally look
after his Interests.
T IV o Big Meetings.

"Bryan and Kern Campaign Fund Pledge."
Then In small letters: "In the Interest of
the principles enunciated In the Denver
platform and for the purpose of assisting
In the election of Bryan and Kern, I prom
ise to pay C. N." Haskell, treasurer demo
cratic national committee, on or befor ten
days after date,, the sum of $23." Then
follows a blank space, for the name of the
signer and his address. In the lower left
hand corner. In small letters, Is this: "This
pldge does not bear interest. It Is not ne
gotiable. Collection of it will not be forced,
and when remittance accompanied this
pledge It should be marked paid on Its
face."
The man who signs one of those notes
will have to pay it. Unless, of course, the
note turns up at the bank aa an order for
a lightning rod or a deed to 160 acres of
land, or something like that. The little
paragraph In the corner Is, of course, put
there to deceive the signer Into giving the
note. That la all It can do. If the note Is
signed It Is good and Is liable to turn up In
a local bank.
Tt is possible though, since Haskell has
been forced to resign aa treasurer that the
maker o fthe note may. bt able to fight its
payment In the courts, aa It is a promise
to pay to Haskell, m treasurer. ,
Reports from Otfr the State. .
Better and better grow the report re
ceived at the republican state headquar
ters. From all sections of the state comes
tho message that the republican ticket will
got more than the usual party vote. Fol
lowing are a few expressions of people
from out In the state:
Lw Shelley. Kafc-bury Tlw republican
leaders who know the situation are ex
pecting at the very least the normal re
publican majority In Jefferson countv.
There haa been some opposition to Taft
among the railroad men who vote at this
division station of the Rock Island on ac
count of tho misunderst imllng they hHd at
the first of Mr. Taft's record on Injunc
tions. Taft's record being now better un
derstood, there Is a change among these
railroad employes for the better. Along
with this republicans have made some in
roads Into the democratic column among
the democratic fanners. In WM this county
gave to McKlnley majority of 275. In
J!04 Roosevelt's majority was 1,. A large
portion of this Roosevelt majority will go
back to the democrats In this election, but
thre sre democrats In every community
who will not go back to democracy and
so the republican party Is stronger here
now thvn It was In 1!HJ0. I believe It Is a
conservative estimate to say that Jeffer
S'n county will give Mr. Taft from t"0 to
majority, while the state and congres
sional tickets will receive a still greater
majority.
William H. Ketchum, Crawford My
Judgment Is that Dawes county will glvi;
about the usual majority this year.
A. E. Cadv, St. Paul I am confident Ne
braska will be for Taft. Conditions
throughout the state are good and a change
will be of no benefit except to the states
men out of a Job. The farmers' prosperity
has been achieved under a policy dis
tinctly opposed to Mr. Bryan's views and
the continuance of that prosperity wl'l cer
tainly not be assiin'd by a change of pol
icy. During the list democratic adminis
tration the farmers of tlr's locality sold
their corn for 9 cents and their wheat for
35 cents a bushel.
There waa no solicitude felt then for the
safety of the farmers' bank accounts. Dur
ing the post twelve years of republican
administration the farmers' have prospered
as never before and not only la the demo
cratic party deeply concerned about tho
farmers' bank accounts, but ',t unblushlngly
Invites the farmers to donate of their re
publican prosperity to alii In the r--cstab-llsliment
of a policy that brought them
ncthlns but dlssster.
W. K. Morgan. Greeley- There Is a si
lence similar to that which was notlceible
In 1W4. In that year Mils county gave
Rooevelt a majority. Prior to that time
the c untv was two to ore fusion. Qulie a
number of democrats here who supported
Roosefelt four years sgo will support Taft
this time. The republican who will sup
port Hryan are mbthty scarce. The hank
guaranty idea seems to cut but little flure.
The projection of the bank guaranty
scheme Is looked up n as an adroit move
on the part of Brvan to catch votes. 1ut
as the sixteen to one proiMlt'n w.ih
catchy Ira 'l. I will be siimrl'ed if thl
county does not break about even between
Brvan and Taft and som well tnforme.l
republicans here are expecting a vep .h
liran maturity. There Is a general fed'n
that Taft Is sound in his views and hir
he Is honest, while at the same time ther"
are aulte a number of democrats who srf
Ltireo or Hrysn, reeling mai ne is ovei
enrirus ano noi n'nie sincere.
H. B. Van Decar. St. Paul A cert.iln party
here making cort'raet for the purpose of
a tract i f la"d wanted the written contrsc'
to provide tat If lim i were hard r.d
money tight March I of next year he was
to be allowed some addittrnnl time to ri"
the money. Asked whv he wanted this
clause In the contract he ssld his friends
had cautioned him lhat Bryan might be
elected and he had better prepare fur hard
times. Asked for whom he intended to vote
he answered: "For Bryan, b"t 1 do not
want to take any chances In this contract."
The party aelltng the land objected to this
clause being in the contract and Instate. t
that the contract should provide for the
payment of ths inxnev March 1, "because."
said the seller, "If nv'iiev s vning to he
tlsht then I don't want t take any charges
either."
Both the men were gflng to vote for
Bryan, but netthe- of them wanted to take
any chances on the reiult of his election.
There Is quite a hit of this feltng of un

FORCFD OUTOF BUSINESS
Large Retail House Getting Ready
to Quit.
One of Omaha's largest stores located on
Farnam street near 14th, has begun to go
out of business by selling a great many of
their fixtures such aa Iron Safes, Reming
ton Typewriters, Cash Registers, Wall Cases
and Counters. It seems strange that such a
large Institution is forced to leave Omaha.
There are enough rich people In ths city to
build aufflclent buildings to keep retail mer
chants from going elsewhere. Every day
merchants tiavel from town to town looking
for suitable buildings to start retail estab
lishments. Omaha has nothing to offer In
this line. Other cities reap the benefit.
When we advertised recently that wa were
Forced Out Of Business and had to unload
this large stock, the people of Omaha and
vicinity took advantage of the low prices
at which the goods were being slaughtered.
They ceme from far and wide.
Below are a few of tho Prices that will
five you an Idea of how the goods are be
ing sold:
Lamb all wool underwear, regular price
tl.M a garnfent now 49c.'. Men'a $17.60, $30
and $22.60. Priestly Cravenettes, $9.85; $5, $4

Sweater Vests. 98c; 76c and $1.00 Black
