At least he gives that as the opinion of Mr. Wig gins, the St. Louis weather prophet and all-ajround scientist. The pro fessor has discovered that Newton's idea about the law of gravitation is way off; in fact theie is no such 'thing. He says that electricity is the great thing in the univetse now, and that all the motions of the planetary bodies are controlled by that It is well known that when to bodies are singularly electrified, they tend to fly apart, and when they are oppositely electrified, they tend to come togeth er.. The professor seems to think that at some long past period some comet approached the planet Mars, and becoming similarly electrified, started on toward the earth.

'' New York, November 5. At this time all eyes are upon the empire state. With every condition favoring a sweep ing republican victory one month ago David K, II ill has thrown himself into the breach and attempted to stop the tide. He has made a campaign that will be memorable for. years to come. He has spoken two and three times a day to vast crowds ofi people and has undoubtedly greatly diminished the avalanche of votes which was going to the Hon. Levi P. Morton. Whether he has changed the tide or not will only . be known tomorrow night. The Shep ardites and the anti-Hill men have kept. Everett P. Wheeler in the race, but he ' will draw only a few thousand votes, and his candidacy is not expected to - affect the result,. The republicans are confident of winning. Charles W. Mackett, chairman of the state commit tee predicts Morton's election by 50,000. Awaiting the Verdict of the liallot. The democratic managers declare themselves satisfied that Hill will. be elected. Claims of a 10,000 to 20,000 plurality are made, and the enthusias tic receptions given the senator are pointed out as certain indications of the feeling all over the state. The A. P. A. has been one of the leading issues presented by the democratic speakers. The proposed reapportion ment and the tariff have also figured prominently in the campaign. These factors, and the uncertainty "as to how they will affect the independent voters, make the result uncertain, lioth par ties await the verdict of the ballots with confidence. The democrats say they will their -present number of representa tives in congress and gam the one in New York city which was carried by Lemuel W. Quigg, republican, last year. The republicans claim they will gain three in this city, three in Brook lyn, and five up the state.

An attempt was made by Dr. Parkhurst and others to induce women to' go into the campaign 'in large numbers, but it has not been a success. Colonel William Strong, the anti-Tammny nominee, has had the support of ministers," the press, with only two or three exceptions, and the reformers. Ex-Mayor Hugh J. Grant, the Tammany champion, says he is confident of winning by from 10,000 to -20,000 votes, but the general opinion prevails that this is not a Tam many year. - OF THE FIGHT IN INDIANA. Close of One of the Most Noted Campaigns in Her History. Indianapolis, November 5. The In diana campaign Jias closed. Never be fore has the democratic party conduct ed such a campaign of education. The leaders feel confident of winning to morrow. They claim that all that is necessary now is to get out the vote. There is no doubt that the democrats are largely in the majority in the state, arf3 if the people will go to the polls the party will triumph. Jeffersonville re publicans have again adopted their tactics of importing negro voters. Sev eral were procured from Louisville last night.

While the democrats will vote for Houk, the chances are largely in favor of Gibson. In the first con gressional district, always safely re publican, the candidates are W. C An derson, republican, T. A- Cox. demo crat, and R. S. Cheeves, prohibitionist. Anderson's majority will be from five thousand to ten thousand. THE FORECAST IN LOUISIANA. Democrats and Republicans Will Both Get a Share of the Representatives. New Orleans, November 5. The congressional campaign in this state has been the most active for years.

On the other hand, the sugar planter republicans claim - that .they will carry the second and third districts sure and hope to defeat General Meyer in the first by the election of Lernochau.

THE FACTIONAL FIGHT IN CAROLINA. nominating Conventions RecaUed and the Story of the Distentions Told Pope's Candidacy Regard Is Formid ableNext in Congress. Charleston, S. C, November 5. It Is well known that the campaign in this state began as a one-sided affair, the so-called reform faction of the dem ocratic party having it all their own way, neither republicans nor conserva tive democrats nominating any candi dates. The result was that four promi nent reformers presented themselves for governor. These -were John Gary and Tillman's tool in the legislature; ' W. H. Ellerbe, the present comptrol- ler general, a young farmer and out and out reformer, but not so bitter as Evans; Sampson Pope, an original re former, but an anti-dispensary man, and in favor of harmony in the state and W. D. Evans, president of the alli ance, a solid fanner and a moderate man. The Nominations Kccailed. Evans was chosen at the reform pri mary. Then many of the conservatives revolted and in the hope of being aided by the' disappointed reformers called a convention to nominate an indepen dent ticket, but cooler heads succeeded in defeating the purpose of the conven tion and no ticket was nominated. Meantime Sampson Pope, one of the reform candidates had refused to run in the reform primary and when' the general democratic .primary was held also withheld bis name so that Evans had no opposition at the so-called dem ocratic primary. Pope then came out as an independent candidate to try his success at the general election. Pope came out as opponent of the constitutional convention also, and this gave him a new boom to his canvass and his candidacy became a matter Of some importance. He will be support ed by many . reformers, conservatives and republicans, but it is not generally believed that he can be elected as he has no organized party at his back. The Congressional Fight. -The seven congressional districts will probably continue as they are now six democrats and one republican. The candidates are as follows: First, El liot, democrat, Murray republican: sec ond, Talbert democrat; third, Latimer, democrat; fourth, Wilson, democrat.

A hitherto unpublished letter ol the Duke of Wellington, written to Colonel Wilke, one of the garrison of St. Helena-when Napoleon was there, contains the following interesting reference to the duke's greatest bat tle: They used to call me the Sepoy general. It is due to my having been a sepoy general that I won the bat tle of Waterloo. It taught me where to place men with ' whom I could trust the honor of England and where to place men who were not so satis factory. I had troops with me at Waterloo in whose hands the safety and honor of king and country could well be placed. I had numbers of others, some of whom I could not trust at all, some I could barely trust, and others who were not prop erly trail, ed. It was owing to the fact of my having learned in the Sepoy wars to place the best of the men in the parts of the field where the greatest courage and bravery were required, and others- where those qualities were not required, that I won the battle of Waterloo.
