There'baa been much betting on
tbe election tills year by Wall
Hlreet men, the irregular nature ol
tbe contest, with St. John and
Butler as two uncertain (aclore in
tbe problem, offering special op
portunities for hazards on the gen
eral result. A conservative broker
estimates that about $25,000 or
$30,000 baa been bet in the Stock
Exchange alone on tbe election.
Members of tbo exchange and
bankers on tbe street have made
many bets outside at the hotels
uptown and at the restaurants and
other places of resort down town.
The betting as s lule has been
about even on the general result,
but the Cleveland men are offering
odds on the election in tbo State;
$1,000 to $700 that Cleveland will
carry the State has been offered,
and $1 ,000 even that his majority
will be 25,000.
Mr. Thomas C. Buck, of H. K.
Kuos & Co., within a day or two
has bet $2,000 with E. 8. Conner,
brother of J. Uould’s partner, that
Cleveland will get more votes in
the State of New Vork than Blaine.
Mr. Buck endeavored to have the
bet repeated, but Mr. Conner de
clined.
Mr. C. I, Hudson has bet $1,000
with W. T. Colbran that Cleveland
will have 25,000 more votes in the
State than Blaine.
Mr. Hudson has two bets of $1,-
900 to $2,000 cac|i that Cleveland
will be elected with Deacon 8. V.
White, of Plymouth Church und
Irbkawanna corner fame. In all
Deacon White has bet $7,000 on
Blaine as an off set, apparently, to
the stand for Cleveland taken by
his pastor. Henry Ward Beecher.
He has three bets or $1,000 each
with 8. Elliott, who believes lliul
Cleveland will be elected.
Addison Camniack has bet ex-!
tensively at the Windsor Hotel, the |
amount being, it is understood,
$37,000, all staked on Cleveland. \
It was reported down town yes-;
lerday on the best authority that J
a liet ol $10,000 whs mnde nt the
Fifth Avenue Hotel on Friday'
night that Cleveland will have i
more votes than Blaine in New 1
Vork. About $30,000 more was,
placed on the election that same
evening at the hotel.
An evening or two ago ex-Con- j
gressman Miles ltoss, of New j
Jersey, made several large bets at 1
Taylor’s Hotel, Jersey City. j
Cleveland will be elected.
Col. J. O. ShniighuCHsy, who'
lived for many years at Denver, |
Col., and accumulated a, fortune olj
several millions in mining enter- !
prises in tbe West, 1ms been in the
uity for several weeks, trying to
"pihoe,” as he says, $1511,000 made
op by a syndicate, of which be is
tho representative, on tlio result of
the election. He proclaimed him
self an out and out Blaine nmn,
and when he llret arrived was will
ing to give odds that Blaine would
lio the next President’ol tho Uni
ted Slates. He is not so sanguine
now, however.
His money, the Treasurer of the
Republican State Committee, who
yesterday went with wild Joy when
it contribution of $6 was received,
says Is in his safe, and ready to he
laid out on Blaine. A few nights
ago tho gallant Colonel encounter-
ed Edward Kearney in the Hoff ! F«f tuff FOtl Of Ski! lid BlOOd Ottllll,
man House, and bet $3,000 even j n-.i.. t. e. r .i lt i,

Kearney offered to double tbe -
amount, but the Colonel was not,
disposed to tisk more. A nightor |

that Cleveland would be elected
and duly inaugur .ted. Blaine’s
avowed admirers quit the corridor -
as soon as decency would permit.

the republicans will carry Ohio b/

given.
Mr. Shay, a wholesale grocer ol
Washington, has been in the city
for several days. He lias bet $6,000
on Cleveland. A Mr. McQtiirc, of
Cleveland, Ohio, is stopping at the
up town hotel. He is an independ
ent republican. He is betting ex
tensively on Cleveland. A. (lei-
man-Americnn named Hippie, also
of Cleveland, ()., was until Blaine's
nomination a red hot republican.
He has within the past few days
staked several thousand dollars
that the democrats will carry Ohio.

Specially whs this true of ninny large and celebrated Clothing
manufacturer* who had made up numerous stocks from materi
als bought on credit. These manufacturers placed their faith
on lively and profitable September trade, absolutely relying on
it for funds to meet their maturing paper, which they had given
for piece goods, but the tradp did not come, the continuous
warm weather and no customers cooked their “goose,” and there
was nothing left for them to do but to fail and turn their goods
over to an Assignee. It was had for them, but it is in your
power to make it good for you, lor, as usual, when good goods
are to be sacrificed we are always on hand. Our Mr. Joe
Waxelbaum was there, and notwithstanding the (act that «v
were already prepared with a stock ol Seventy-Five Thousand
Dollars, we bought Thirty-Three Thousand more in Boys, Chil
drens and Men’s Clothing, Dry Goods, Dress Goods, Fancy
Goods, Corsets, etc., at prices varying from SO to CO per cent,
of the actual value. Promptly at 8 o'clock Monday Momilltf
and it will be to the interest of every one in this city or country
to be on hand, for at the prices we propose selling these goods
you were never offered them in the history of the dry goods,
