SEN. M'CARREN
AT DEATH'S DOOR
(By Leased Wire to The Times.)
New -York. Oct. 22 Stimplants to
keep Senator Patrick H. McCarren
alive were administered today by the
physislans attending him at St. Cath
erine's Hospital, Brooklyn, The sen
ator suffered a serious relapse at 7
o'clock this morning. The doctors who
were at his bedside held a consultation
and then sent word to Dr. Peter
Hughes, MeCarren'8 chief physician, to
hurry to the hospital. When he ar
rived there it was docltied to administer
hypodermic injections of strychnine to
stimulate the heart.
For the second time during his long
fight against death. Senator McCarren's
heart showed signs of falling today.
HIS pulse ranged betwee 120 anil 130.
His temperature, too, was very high.
He was unable to reatln anything on
his stomach.
Among the nurses and attendants
at the hospital it was reported that
the senator was dying.
All the friends of the McCarren fam-,
Hy have, hesitated to notify the sen
ator's mother, who Is 87 years old and
ill, of her son's condition. Dr. Hughes
this morning was delegated to tell her
and take her to the hospital to see the
senator, in the belief tiiat he would noH
live many hours.
Senator McCarren sank Into uncon
sciousness shortly after 10 o'clock today
and it was admitted by his physician
that death was expected in a few
hours.

lily Leased Wire to The Times)
New York, Oct. 22 Gaynor by
100,000 votes, Bannard'by 40,000,
Hearst, by 70,000. These were the
predictions made today by the party
leaders, Tammany, republican, and
civic alliance, respectively.
Herbert Parsons made the forecast
for Bannard. Though little given to
figures he declared that he was con
fident the republican ticket would get
twice the lead, 20,000, predicted a
few days ago.
The Tammany leaders are confi
dent of Gaynor's victory, hut no more
so than are the supporters of Hearst.
Chairman Charles E. Gehring, of the
civic alliance, paid that a plurality
of 70,0u0 for Hearst was a conserva
tive estimate.
A cablegram that Richard Croker.
former Tammany chieftain, who will
sail tomorrow for New York arriv
ing before the election, attracted
ninth attention today. It is regarded
as probably I he most significant de
velopment of the last lew days.
Not since he was in active politics
has Croker been in New York at elec
tion time. He has always arrived
after the crucial day. The effect of
his presence in New York four or
five days before election day is prob
lematical, but the opponents of Tam
many declared today that it indi
cated a lack of confidence.
"There is nothing significant in
Mr. Croker's trip," is what the local
democrats say. Whether he Is dis
satisfied with the management of the
Tammany campaign, or whether he Is
so confident that he fears no ill
effects from his presence here, is a
matter of debate. ;
"His attitdde has always been that
of a man who is through with poli
tics." - ' .:
With the last week of the campaign
almost at hand, interestjs deepening.
The fight ,1s carried on at almost
every hour, in every part of the city,
but aside from the statements from
the party .leaders, there-Is little to
indicate which way the right will go.
