Chicago. IIL. Not. 4. Senator Jones
issued the following statement to
night :
"I have counted from the "rng
as the States upon which we rctteu tur
Mr. Bryan's election, the Southern
States, with 1.VJ votes, and the State
west of the Missouri, witn bi voles,
making a total of 217. I have hoped
that we would carry Indiana. Micbi

hare carried all of the Southern States
except Maryland, and that we have
carried all of the Western States here

counting Delaware, which I think we
bave carried, ana wnicn 1 nave noc

One vote we certainly hav e in Del

ing only one vote, which we have be
yond doubt, it leaves necessary to a
ohoice fourteen votes. Ether Michi
gan or Indiana would give us those
fourteen votes. Tne reporcs reoeiveu
by us from both those States make en
couragement and lead us to believe
that while both States are close, that
we have the. better chance to win each
and that we may probably carry both.
"There can be scarcely a doubt of
our getting Indiana. Under these cir
cumstances, it seems to me, hat we are
entirely justified in cuiunug the elec
tion of Mr. Brya", which I do, and be
lieve that the tcrni-er 01 tne people is

hour the situation in Kansas is about

of tha afternoon and felt much re
freshed when the news began coming
in. Two Postal telegraph wires had
been run into Mr. Bryan's residence,
one connecting witn democratic na
tional headquarters in Chicago and
the other for regular bulletins. Both
instruments, an operator at each, were
placed in the library, while in the ad
joining dining room, a Western Union
operator received the bulletins fur
nished by that company. It had been
understood among the friends of the
Democratic canaidate that he was to
be left alone on election night, and

tablished since his nomination. Mrs.
Bryan remained witn bim there dur
