Thle I* "dough day" at the hall, and the dletrlct leaders came la carriages bringing with them several canvass bags. Seventy thous and dollars Is said to be the size of the pile which will be used to bring up the Tammany vote. The New York gubernatorial cam. palgn shups up shop tonight and to. morrow the voter will decide his choice between Hughes or HearsL The betting today Is 4 to 1 on Hugh- es. Chairman of the republican state Woodruff, nearing one of his most gorgeous vests and a confident air, predicted today that Hughes would have over 200.000 plurality In the state. Tiny Tim was gratified because the weather man had promised a fair day, which means the farmers wilt come out and vote. "A line day up-state." said Wood'- ruff, "means a landslide tor Hughes." New York, Nov. 6.—Ordinarily a campaign for governor closes on the Saturday night before election, but there has been nothing ordinary about this campaign, and on neither side will the work of addressing and exhort- Ing the voters be abandoned until a few hours before the polls are actually opened tomorrow morning. The Tammany people did not even take n rest over Sunday, and last night several mass meetings were being held to advocate the candidacy of William R. Hearst for governor. One of the speakers at the Bowery meeting le former Representative Timothy D. Sullivan, better known as "Big Tim.” who Is supposed to control more votes than any othsr single politician In New York. He Is virtually the Demo cratic leader of all the Tammany forces Hying In Manhattan south of four teenth. street, and the fact that he speaks for Mr. Hearst from the public .platform will insure a good majority In that tsrrltory for the candidate. The Republican* hold meetings toillglit at which Charles E. Hughes will speak, winding Up with n demonstration In Borland's Riding Academy. Hearst Claims 200,000 Plurality. But the main question here Is: "Who l« going to be elected?” One can get all sorts of answers to this question. Never was there such a wide dissimi larity In the opinions of the election prophets. Mr. Hearst ts still declaring that he will be elected by a plurality of 100.000. He arrived at this conclu sion from studying the returns In ■ ireful way of every county In the state, ns well as numerous polls. Max F. lhmaen, Mr. Hearst's chief Washington. D. C„ Nov. t.—J. G. Rawlins, the Georgia preacher who la accused of hiring a negro man, Alt Moore, to assassinate a family named Carter, must hang. The United States supreme court to day, In a decision announced by Chief Justice Fuller, affirmed the verdict of the lower court. The chief Justice directed that the mandate of the court be Issued at once. With till! decree of the United States supreme court the last hope, save one. for J. Q. Rawlins Is gone. The Anal hope Is so remote that tt hardly exists —the Intercession of the prison com mission. When the mandate of the higher court reaches Georgia .the judge of the superior court will he-sentehce Half' lins and Alf Moore to be hnnged. Attorney John R. Cooper haa made a wonderful fight for his client, carrying the case twice to the highest tribunal, but he lost out finally and now haa only the prison commission to depend upon. On next Tuesday the commission wiy taka up the petitions for commutation of sentences of Jesse and Milton Raw lins. Argument on them has been heard, but the commission reserved ■ts decision until the courts had dis posed of the case against the father of the boys. Whether Attorney Cooper will make any fight or not to save the elder Raw lins remains to he seen, but It Is be Ileved that be would not Jeopardize any chance for the boys by making an ap peal for the old man. Race Results Massachusetts Candi date Demands Writ ten Evidence. IN NIC CASE The United States supreme court handed down a decision Monday, hold ing that it had Jurisdiction in the Duck- town case, and set February 35 ss the date for hearing the case on Its merits. This Is a signal victory for Georgia, and means that the famous case will now go before the court on Its merits. The Ducktown people fought the Issue ,or Hearst.” FOR HEARST There has seldom been so much un certainty In a great campaign as In that between Hearst and Hughes In New York. Both sides are.

Many of 'he district leaders who made reports in Murphy do not agree with him and point to the fact that Mr. Murphy has refused to make public the figures turned In by the district leaders.

He believes that Mr. Hearst will be the next governor of New York. "What Impressed me more than any thing elee," continued Colonel Graves, “is the wonderful regard the people of New York have for Mr. Hearst. It ts not tits "fealty of partisans to their chieftain, but the regard of friends for u friend. He addressed thousands upon thousands -of men of every class.

It seems that the Oldknow matter will not down. It Is known that the action of the special committee on whisky licenses, in denying applications from certain dealers, and In granting the applications of others, has created a great deal of dissatisfaction. This dissatisfaction haa already twice shown Itself In the form of official In vestigations of the conduct of Council man Oldknow, chairman of the commit tee, once by the grand Jury and another time by council Itself. Mr. Oldknow asked for the Investigation by council anil paid half the expense of sums. No specific chnrges have been made against Mr., Oldknow. The charge, generally understood, which I* made against hint, is that hn allowed hie business interests to dictate his actions In voting for certuln applications and ngalnat others. In the Investigations there was more than one Instance where one man swore one way nnd another a contrary way on the same matter*. This diametrical ly.opposed testimony. It Is quite au thoritatively stated, will lead to the swearing out of warrants for perjury against certain of these witnesses. No names are given, as no warrants have yet been aworn out.

It Is entirely probable that a fast mall from Chicago will also be put on by the roads handling th* "Dixie Flyer," soon to be Inaugurated through Atlanta on account of tourist travel t<< winter resorts In Florida. The mall from the northwest has increased con siderably, and postal cltrks on roads from that direction frequently come In to the city "stuck," and are forced to remain In their cars and work the heavy malls.
