Indications that it was Disastrous

SOCIAL DEMOCRATS MAKE GAINS
In all Sections, and it Appears
that the Army Bill will fall far
Short Of Majority in the next
Reichstag.

tend TO bring out heavy vote, more
sspecially In the rural districts. In
Berlin the streets wore an every day APP
uearance and there is utter absence OF
any excitement. In fact the wealthler
classes appear 10 be apathetic as TO the
outcome of the elections. The authori-
ties thought disorders might arise
among voters belonging to the lower
classes and the troops are kept In their
barracks so as TO repress any outbreak
that might occur. Very few veters
went TO the polls before noon. At that
hour when the workmen left the facto-
ries and other places where they were
employed, they walked in groups TO the
voting stations and deposited their bal
lots. There are COS stations in the city,
500 OF them being In taverDs and res
taurants, while the remaining l2s are
in the school buildings and vestry halls.
The Socialists are displaying more &C
tivity than any Of the other political
groups. Women seem TO be as deeply
interested In the success OF the Social
Democratic candidates as are the men
of the party and they have labored In
every way 20 aid the candidates.
A number OF men and women gather-
ed at S o'clock this morning at the Book
brewery, the headquarters OF the Social
lists in the Second district, where Herr
Fischer, one OF the Social Democratic
leaders is running. They devoted them
selves to receiving orders for electoral
tickets, while others scattered leaflets
OF the party broadcast. Chancellor Won
Caprivi and DR.. Won Boetticher, Secre-
tary OF the Imperial Home Ohice, both
voted at the Kaissrhof station.
They apparently believed in de-
uositing their ballots as soon
as possible for they were among the
earliest voters at the polls. The officials
attached TO the post Office have been
given five hours leave Of absence Ia or
der that they may vote In their respec-
tive districts. Arrangements have been
made by which the tiremen and the men
EMPLOYED on the tramway and omnibus
lines will 90 to polling places in relays.
Each relay is allowed two hours for vot-
ing purposes. The police have taken
no visible measures 10 prevent rloting.
1t is generally known, however, that all
the spare cORstablcs arc confined In
their barracks. Thus far everything
has passed OF very quietly and no dis.
turbances are expected.
Herr Krupp, National Liberal, run
| ing in Essen against Editor Stoetzel, a
member OF the Lieber wing OF the Cen
ter party, was said not te be getting the
support he expected.
The agrsrians were highly elated
when they learned in the afternoon that
Count Herbert Bismarck had run 80 un'
expectedly we'll in the Jerlchow district
that re-ballot would probably be nec-
esssary. The general expectation was
that Count Herbert would be beaten
easily by his free trade antagonist.
