Estimates gathered by New York World Democratic correspondents in ever .state in the country and based upon the figures of the leaders of nil tho parties, indicate that Wilson and Marshall will carry thirty-nine of tho forty-eight states, with a total of 481 out of the iiJU electoral votes:, that President Taft; will carry several states with a total of thirty-two votes; that Colonel Roosevelt will carry two states, -with a total of fifteen electoral voles; that the Democrats will surely win three senate seats and have an overwhelming majority in the house; that the popular plurality for Wilson and Marshall will exceed 2,n00.000 votes; that thc plurality for Wilson and Marshall in New York state will approximate 120,000.

This forecast of thc outcomo of one of thc greatest political struggles in the nation's history is based upon a survey of thc wholo couutry. Every stato of tho United States has been canvassed and all thc signs that men go by point unfailingly to Woodrow Wilson as the successful contender.
