The announcement of the death of John Hart, aa old aad respected realdent of toe Eastern District, caused general rearet vhea became known this morning Sympathy was also expressed for William M. Hart, son of the deccaaed.

The d.alh of Mr. Hart occurred yesterday at bis residence. S9 Koaa street, where be and bis family bad resided for years. Hia death waa not totally unexpected, as he bad been failing for a long time. Mr.

Hart, who was born in New tork, was 69 years old. At an early axe he moved with his parents to Poughkeepsie, whare he lived until the death of both. He was thrown upon his own resources at the age of 14 and Immediately returned to New York, where he became employed by a firm of chair manufacturers and continued In that line of buainess until he was compelled to retire owing to sev eral strokes of paralysis which almost com Dletely disabled him during the past year. He was known throughout the furniture trade and was the first to Introduce the famous ateamer chair for the patentee. "Honest John Hart" was his title among the fur niture concerns in Canal street, where he was located for about thirty-five years, Prior to his first attack he never lost a day through Illness.

He Is survived by his wife and seven children John Dr. George William Alice Mrs. J. D. Mul-downey.

Mrs. H. F. Grogan and Grace Hart. Funeral services will be conducted on Wednesday morning at the Church of the Transfiguration.

Marey avenue and Hooper street, where a solemn requiem mass will ba celebrated. RUSH ON NEW BRIDGE. Sunday Crowds Necessitated Extra Cars. Most Patrons Traveled to Brownsville. The first Sunday of the trolley service on the Williamsburg Bridge brought a rush of traffic that was anticipated by the operating officers of the railroad companies.

Even in the cold and rain of early morning the. cars were well patronized, and the little terminal at Clinton and Delancey streets, Manhattan, was well crowded before 1 o'clock. When the sun broke through the clouds and Ihe day cleared the real rush was on. The residents of the East Side took the opportunity ot going out to see cousins In Brownsville. It cost 6 cents a head than ever before, and that waa sufficient excuse lor taking tho entire family along.

There were so many families that the B. R. T. officers had to order out extra cars on both Broadway and1 Reid avenue lines. Thesa cars helped bring a host back to their homes 111 Manhattan at night.

It was estimated that between 50,000 and 60,000 persons crossed the structure on the trolley cars yesterday. The three lines patronized to a great extent were those ot the Broadway. Hamburg ana tsusnwicK ave nue, which penetrate the thickly parts ot the Eastern District and Brownsville. The average number of passengers to each car was about thirty-five during the morning, but the number increased as the morning advanced. After dark the rush from Manhattan was great, but additional cars had been added during the day, and no great congestion occurred on either side of the structure, although persons with children found It uncomfortable to stand exposed to the sharp wind without the least bit of shelter on either plaza.

Everything worked smoothly, and as a result the cars of every line crossing- the structure were able to run on schedule time without delay. The cars of the shuttle service were also largely patronized. What little confusion there was, occurred over transfers at the station on the Brooklyn side. METHODIST MINISTERS MEET. Brooklyn and Long Island Association Discusses Conference.

The Brooklyn and Long Island Methodist ministers meeting was held this, morning In the Y. M. C. A. rooms, the Rev.

A. W. Byrt, presiding. Dr. G.

Downey delivered an able address on "The Doings, and Non-Doings of the Late General Conference." It wus a resume of the legislation of the conference and the commendable absence of po litical maneuvering In matters of 'election. During the discussion Dr. C. S. Wing expressed himsejf concerning the proposed consolidation of benevolences as at Impracticable.

Bishop Harris, missionary bishop, was Introduced, and made some telling remarks relating to Korea and Japan. He stated that Korea was asking for six single men and four married men as missionaries, and that Korea was at the gate of trie Kingdom of Heaven. He said Japan was fighting for Christian civilization; that all Christendom was ln sympathy with her, and that religionists of all creeds acknowledged that Jupan was fighting for national existence. The Bishop Is convinced that if ever a nation went to war with regret, it was Japan. Speaking of a recent Interview with Secretary Hay, he ruid him a great compliment by saying John Hay the greatest missionary living and wtis thankful for It.

Consid erable enthusiasm was manifested during the Bishop's stirring speech. Ho thinks Port Arthur will eventually fall, but that Its ultimate end will be delayed until after Christmas. JAMES H. SHANLEY DEAD. James H.

i 0 0 0 0 15 CGNFINT US ODELL Both Sidaa Cartful About Giving Out Thair Figuraa in Any Datail. MUCH TALK OF FRAUD AT POLLS, But No iTidenco That Election Day Will Not Quiet Usual Claims of Populists. rM.A v. Governor Odell went homo to Newburgh I Ihia morning, where he will rote and gel the election returns. He addressed a meeting of the employes of a dry goods store right after breakfast, and then parked up.

Mr. Odell d'd not give out any figures on Ihe result, except to express confidence In the election of both Roosevelt and Higgins. At first the Governor declined to aay anything about figures, but finally he said: "Mr. Murphy will have to come up to the Bronx with more than 140.000 plurality it he expects lo elect hia candidate for governor, for the vote up state will more than cancel that." Then he said that he did not know that he had better be quoted on that, because he was not Riving out figures. In response to a question whether Hlggins would run behind Roosevelt, the Governor replied: "Not more than thirty or forty thousand votes." Mr.

Odell will not be back until after election and will get full returns lo Newburgh. More definite information concerning Odell's motive In accusing Judge Parker of being a trust promoter while talking against the trust Influence came out to-day. It Is understood that he blames Parker for approving of the Democratic state platform, which practically charges his administration with being a grabbing one, and states that the Governor himself rests under suspicion. His theory Is that a man who has been his friend for ao many years ought not to countenance the sort of campaign which has been conducted just to help himself into the presidency. He assumes that Judge Parker could not have believed the charges to be true before he was nominated at St.

Louis. The inspiration for Attorney General Cun-neen's attack Is laid to his disappointment at not being nominated for Judge of the Court of Appeals. The selection or Judge Cullen, Democrat, to be chief judge and the forcing of Cullen and Werner on both state tickets disappointed Cunneen, who claims to have had David B. Hill's promise that he should get one of the nominations. He expected Judge Herrick to be nominated for chief Judge Mr.

Cunheen has always been on friendly terms with Odell and it 1b said expected the Republican stale convention to concur in his nomination for the Court of AppeaU bench. His hot campaigning Is laid by the Republicans to disappointment on that score. With fair weather promised for to-morrow from New York to Buffalo, an extremely large vote is looked for In this city and siaie. wow mat tne speeches, except for one or two believed to be delivered to-day, have been made, and all preparations for getting out and protecting the vote have been completed, both Sides continue to express the utmost confidence in the result. The Democrats have been encouraged by the Eagle's forecast and the statement by Charles F.

Murphy, the Tammany leader, that he expected such large pluralities for Parker and Herrick in the Greater New York that he hesitated to give out the figures. Notwithstanding the unofficial polls and the Democratic claims, however. Governor Odell. who is chairman of the State Republican Committee, and William Halpln, chairman of the New York County Republican Committee, declare that the heavy Democratic vote In New York City will be overcome, with a good margin to spare, by the Republican vote In the up-state counties. An interesting feature of this year's campaign In New York Is the canvass made by Thomas E.

Watson, the Populist nominee for the presidency, and some attention was attracted to the claim of Melvin the Populist state chairman, that Watson will poll from 40,000 to 60,000 votes In New York. As is usual, the day before election brings out stories of colonization and alleged attempts to force through the votes of men not entitled to cast a ballot, but there is nothing to show that the quiet of the city is lil: to be disturbed. There will be a full force of poll watchers for each of the parties, every policeman in the city will be on duty and the courts will sit all day to settle whatever disputes may arise. The Democratic State Committee headquarters was pretty well deserted except for William S. Rodle, chairman of the organization committee.

Most ot the other campaigners had gone home. Entire confidence prevails. Herrick's election as Governor is regarded as assured. The Democrats this year have plenty of money to get out the vote. The amount distributed for this pur- pose Is said by up-state committeemen to be "satisfactory." It Is reported that they got $1,400 for each Assembly District, or something like $135,000 above the Bronx.

Two years ago they had little money and the Republican vote scored. This Is "dough day" at Tammany Hall, the day when the money for expenses is doled out to the leaders. In consequence, all the district leaders were on hand, with some trusted henchman, to get the canvas, bags of'money. almost entirely In small denominations, and the campaign literature, for the dUtrict. The leaders all spoke to Charles F.

Murphy, who was at his desk, and all reported progress. Mr. Murphy, asked about tho money. Raid: "Wo have enough for legitimate expenses." Further than this he would not particularize. Mr.

Murphy was asked about Governor Orlell's statement that he would have, to show more than 140,000 plurality below tho Bronx to carry the state. "Odell says a whole lot of things. I say nothing." Mr. Murphy replied. Charles H.

Knox, chairman of the law committee of Tammany Hall, made (ho following statement this morning at Tammany Hall: "I have evidence that within one hour after the Democratic organization handed to Sunerintendent Morgan a list of alleged colored colonizers ffll Information on tho subject was known by the Republican leader of the Assembly District. "I have evidence that the young lawyers who have been examining persons subpenaed to Mr. Morgan's office were not employes of Morgan, but were lawyers sent by tho Republican committee to Morgan to bo used for that purpose. "When these facts are coupled with tho fncts that Mr. Morgan has admitted that the information obtained by his deputies in regard lo registered voters was sent at once to a committee of Republican lawyers at the Temple Court building and there used by them to make motions to strike names from the registry lists, and with the further fact that letters written by Morgan to reglsercd voters, asking for information, were sent out and mailed by the Republican committee from the post office in the same building with the Republican National and County committees, and with tho further fact that, although Morgan's office is by statute to be managed In a non-partisan manner, no Democrat has been allowed to take any part In the examination of persons subpenaed to his office, but he has publicly stated that ho would not allow them to do so; it must be glaringly clear to any one that the powers given to Morgan under the statuto are simply used as an annex to the Republican stuto and county machines."
