Ecnr. No TrouhIe.

Washington, Nov. s.---Attorney Cen
eral Miller returned to Washington last
night and was at the department of jus
tice this morning. lie is confident that
there will Ike no trouble whatever at the
polls. The United States deputy
marsllals will not wantonly force them
selves behind the guard rails at the cleo
tion booths in New York city or else
where. and will only so behind the limit
prescribed by the state law in order to
make arrests or preserve the peace. In
explanation of his rather unexpected re-
turn TO the capital at this time, the at
forney general said: II thought that l
might be of more use here than in In
diana in case of any unusual event oc-
curing anywhere" When asked if he
really anticipated trouble. he replied that
lie did not: that he relied ON the good
sense and patriotism of the people in
charge of the polling places to prevent
violations of law and breaches of the
peace. The United States deputy
tnarshals are supposed to be good citi-
zens. and their instructions are explicit
not to be aggressive or to provoke
hostilities. Attorney General Miller said
lie feels sure that deputy marshals will
rot invade the polling places without
cause or endcavor to show a wantOn ex-
crcise of authority.

press TO him personally his sympathy on the

near his house and was driven to the White

day, the eve of the election, to call upon the
president to tender his sympathy in order to
forestal unfayorable comment that might

Should the result OF the election prove un-
favorable TO the president, his action would
