P. SENATE MARGIN NARROW But Underlying Strength of Republican Party Little Changed in Off Year. (This is the second of a series of three dispatches the outcome of the congressional elections of next Tuesday. They are written by David Lawrence after a tour of the principal states in which "active campaign contests have developed and after an analysis of confidential reports received by telegraph from al! states in the last 24 hours.) By DAVID LAWRENCE WASHINGTON. Oct.

30. (By Associated Press) Although tho margin of Republican strength in the senate will be cut down in the election next Tuesday, the underlying strength ot the Republican nartv in those states in which three-cornered races or local factionalism did not develop can hardly be said to be much changed from The pluralities and majorities will be less because the registration is always lower In an off year. Detailed reports from the principal states In whic contests occurred lead the writer to the following forecast: New York. The improvement of Gov. Al Smith's chances in the last three days of the campaign will have a noticeable effect on the senatorial contest.

The Christina Independent vote is large and Senator Wadsworth has a real battle. If the New York city Demo-crast vote solidly for Robert F. Wagner, the senior Republican senator will lose. His only hope is that the "wet" Democrats will pull him through, and that is not likely. The New York delegation in the house will show relatively lit.tle change.

17 SEATS IN BALANCE G. O. P. Brands Optimism of Opponent as Hallowe'en Hallucination. WASHINGTON, Oct.

31, (By Associated Press) Another nationwide campaign began to pass into history today as party leaders packed their political fishing tackle away in the attic and soleify sought to compute the comparative size of the respective catches that will be weighed out at the polls on Tuesday. Of tha forecasts Issued tonight from the national party headquarters those of the Democrats were the more sweeping. The party leaders claimed nothing less than a Democratic landslide, not simply administering to the administration the ordinary off-year rebuke, but constituting an actual revolution against Republican rule. These statements the Republicans dismissed as nothing but a Democratic hallucination, a sort of a Hallowe'en hobgoblin that would after election day. Democratic hopes of winning a majority in the senate hinge on the chances party leaders think they have in a group of widely-scattered where Democratic campaign ammunition has been spent most freely during the summer.

These states are Arizona, Colorado. Idaho. Illinois, Misouri, Nevada. New York, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Utah and Washington. Of these 17 states, all held now by Republicans, the Democrats must win nine to have a clear senatorial majority.

Kven the mwt sanguine partisans 1 rttf "not" hope' to- WtptUT buT they do ceun three or four as certain to fall in the Demlcratic column. They figure that an even break elsewhere is all they need. The Republican answer to this reasoning is that, while a very few of these states may be normally Democratic and might in an off year return Democratic majorities, the others are Republican and taken state by state, can be expected to go that way in 1926. The house situation is not so easily diagnosed, all of tho 435 members, except four in Maine who were chosen in an election In September, must get credentials at tho polls Tuesday. gain a majority over the combined opposition, the Democrats must take 36 seats now held by Republicans.

The party managers insist it can be done, in the face of a Republican reply that any such supposition is preposterous; but neither side has indicated ir. a public way just what districts contain the political dynamite that js to plunge the balance of power one way or the other. ln one respect this campaign may live in political history as one of the freak campaigns of all time. In nearly every Instance the issues on which the decision will hinge have been handled as local issues, and national party management has been forced to take a back seat when it came to outlining the channels along which the fight was made. Thus it transpires that in regard to the two quesaions which at the outset looked most promising, as national issues prohibition and the world court-neither party headquarters has said a word.

For where these questions have figured at all they have been handled as local questions, with the Republican candidates wet in one state and dry in its neighbor, with the Democrats fighting thc court in one distirct and supporting it across the line in the next. But in the main, questions of local origin as well as local appli-catiin have provided the fighting points of the state campaigns. In New York, it was pure milk; In Maryland the Conowingo power project. In Indiana charges of a corrupt Republlcan-Ku Klux Klan deal kicked up an unexpected fia cas, while in Illinois public utilities campaign contributions started a quarrel which eventually led Presi- tion of neutrality If Washington is interested in any one senatorial contest more another, it is that in Massachusetts.

(Special to Arizona Daily Star) Although witness after witness has been called and each of them subjected to a severe grilling by C. R. Holton, attorney for Senator Ralph H. Cameron, not one scintilla of evidence has yet been produced to show that any kind of a conspiracy exists among large copper and power interests who, Cameron claims, are endeavoring to defeat him. In fact, the talk about Phoenix is that Cameron never (reamed that Senator Reed would act so quickly In sending Senator King to conduct the invest igatlon, and at no time did the Cameron forces want an investigation unless Cameron was defeated.

The Cameron camp is now beginning to show son1'4 signs 'of panic, as the unexpected counter offensive on the part of tho local Democrats will bring Clove Van.

Hayden Denies Slush "I want to give Senator Cameron every bit of cooperation I can in uetting his witnesses here," the Utah solon added. Carl Hayden himself was thu principal witness ef the morning session. He testified that he had spent a total of in ills campaign so far, Including the primary election, and of this amount he had contributed $2650 to the Democratic state central committee to be used for the benefit of all eandidates on the ticket. He testified that ho had received $2500 from the national campaign committee, $2W) from Frank Hereford, of Tucson: $50,1 from Sam Applewhite, of Douglas, and a number of small contributions that made up the balance, as well as some from his own pocketlv-ok. He denied that he had anything to do with the publication in the Dos Angeles Times and Prescott Courier of an article attacking Senator Cameron.

He said ho had seen the article after It had been written but that he had advised ngainst publishing it. "Who is this Will Irwin, the author of the article mentioned?" asked Senator King. Forbes "He is the man who exposed Charles Forbes, of the Veterans' bureau, who is now in the federal penitentiary." replied Hayden. The audience roared with laughter. Hayden denied receiving any money from James Douglas, but said that Douglas had contributed $1000 to the state central committee to spend en Governor Hunt, himself, and the rest of the ticket.

Hayden denied that he knew any Arizona copper companies that were conspiring to defeat Cameron, hut said that he had reason to believe that sine were helping Cameron land working against himself, be- cause he opposed the copper tariff. Hayden admitted that he had been censured very serlouslvi bv California interests for onposing and defeating the fiwing-Johnson bill in congress. He said be had no paid workers; of any kind, nor did he know of any friends who were employing workers. J.

The greater part of it he declared had beep spent on advertising in newspapers. He said he contributed ahotit $15,000 to the campaign of his son, Lewis Douglas. On the basis of this testimony the managers endeavored to link him up with Carl Hayden in the present senatorial fight. He admitted that he nad contributed $1000 to the present Democratic campaign for use by the state committee as it Baw fit and that he had made some small donations to three or four workers who were working' for his son and Carl Hay- i SESSION TO CONTINUE Adjourns Until Today for Want of More Witnesses.

"I resent that word. "You can take it and stew it," retorted the. copper king. "I'll put this chair over your head," was the Republican senator's reply in a low tone. "Like you will," Douglas came back.

Senator King' ended tho episode by pounding for order, and cautioning Douglas that order must be maintained in the federal district courtroom where the hearing is being conducted.
