CnucAGo.s LACK OF INTEREST.
Indications That n Light Vote Would
be POllcd.

CHICAGO, November 1.-The election in
this city today was for two judges of the
superior court. nine trustees of the sanitary
district and fer or against what is known
as the "Torrens land title system" There
We're foIr tickets in the field-republican,
democratic, peoples and socialist-labor.
Comparatively little attention was paid to
the two latter. and republican and demo-
cratic leaders spoke of woeful lack Of
interest on the part of the voters.
The weather was all that could be de-
sired. The police orders closed all saloons
during voting hours and prohibiting cleo
pioneering within one hundred feet of poll
ing places, were rigidly enforced for the
iirst time, and this contributed to the quiet
of the day.
Up to IL am. not one-third of the regis
tered vote had been cast, and the indica-
lions are for the lightest total vote in
years. Besides an apparent general lack of
interest the fact that more suspect no.
tices were sent out in what are common
ly called the lodging house districts than
ever before aided in holding down the
vote.
So far there has been little scratching,
md as near as can be ascertained the vote
OF the Torrens bill is largely in its favor.
Reports from Evanston and other sub
urban points indicate a vote proportion
ately as light as in the city.

PROGRESSING QUIETLY IN JERSEY.
Vote on Both Sides Reported to Be
Strong.

TRENTON. N. j., November 5.-The re-
ports received here indicate that the cleo
tion is progressing quietly throughout the
state. Both the democratic and the repub-
lican vote is reported to be coming out
strong. and that the contest is being fought
on party lines The democrats say this Is
favorable to the election of Chancellor Nc
Gill for governor. 1t is conceded by the
leaders of both parties that the contest for
governor will depend mainly on the vote of
Essex and Hudson counties.
Senator Sewell and Chairman Murphy of
the republican state committee venture the
opinion that Griggs will carry the state by
at least 10000, and that the republicans will
elect forty of the sixty assemblymen, as we'll
as five of the seven senators.
Chairman Young of the democratic state
committee, and Governor Werts believe that
McGill will carry the state by from 5000
to 5000 and that thirty of the sixty as
selnblymen will be democrats.
CAMDEN, Nj, November "a very
heavy vote is being polled in south Jersey.
Griegs is running ahead of his ticket in
this county while the county candidates
are being cut considerably. Party lines are
beirg tightly drawn in Cape May and At
lantic City counties, but ether counties re-
pert considerable scratching.

After American Fishermen.

SANDUSkY, Ohio. November 5.-The
Canadian government is again after Ameri-
can fishermen. The revenue cruiser
Petrol, Captain Dunn in command, seized a
large amount of nets and fish belonging to
Sandusky fishermen Fifteen steamers and
several hundred men are engaged in fish
ing out of this port and in the vessels left
for the fishing grounds
During the afternoon the Petrol bore
down on the American men and for several
miles chased them Unable to overtake
them the Petrol returned and confscated
the nets and left for Rendeau. The seized
property is valued at several hundred dol
lars. 1t is believed here that the Petrol
was justified in confiscating the nets, as
dian line.

SHE KEPT HER WORD.

tor, Until He Returned.


Paris Letter to the London Telegram.
A detective was bringing woman whom
he had ARE sted at Boulogne- ur-Seine upon
{. steamer to the prefecture. when at the
Concorde bridge a wel-dressed man threw
himself into the river and was drowning.
The detective is an excellent swimmer, and
it cost him a painful struggle to see a fell
low-creature lose his life. IF only 1 were
alone" he said to his prisoner, Il would
jump into the water to save him." The
days imprisonment for assaults upon the
police. at once replied: do so; will wait
for you at the pier, and will not run
away" The detective thereupon plunged
into the stream and seized the drowning
man by his clothes, when a boat struck
against him violently and made him lose
his grip. He dived again, but in vain, and,
quite exhausted, he was pulled aboard a
small skiff, which was nearly smashed by
a steamer coming from the opposite direc-
ton.
Capiaumont, as the brave fellow is called,
was enthusiastically cheered by the on
lockers. The body of the man he had tried
to save was recovered few hours later.
custody acted quite as courageously. for,
true to her word, she waited for the de-
tective at the Pont Neuf, and handed to
him his coat, in the pocket of which was
the warrant upon which she had been ar
rested 1t is satisfactory to add that when
he chief of the department was apprised
of her conduct he Immediately ordered the
woman to be set at liberty in recognition
of her devotion.

GREAT NORTHERN STRIKE.
The Movement Has Met With Partial
Success.

The Movement Has Met With Partial
Success.
SPOKANE. Wash, November 5.-The
strike on the Great Northern is only partial
at this place. The eastbound passenger
trains went. through on time, and the Off
Gals claim that all trains are moving regu-
larly. At the car shops at Hillyard part of
the employees went out. The strikers claim
that about sixty have gone out. but the
master mechanic says the number was only
eighteen. and of these six have returned.
KALISPELL. Mont. November 5.-Roy
Goodwin. director of the A. r. u, who has
just been released from JAIL where he was
sentenced by the United States court. with
E. V. Debs and others, called meeting of
that order here last night Only ten en-
ployes of the Kalispell division were pres
ent, the balance being men discharged from
the service.
1t was voted to strike and Goodwin called
the strike to take effect at IL pm. At the
appointed hour the train crews responded
promptly, but when it was announced that
Goodwin called a strike, they took a strong
stand in favor of the company. and ex-
pressed determination to defeat the strike.
Goodwin was denounced as an agitator I'M
worthy of notice. His anarchist speech at
Spokane few days ago lost him any su-
prcmacy he may have enjoyed among the
railroad men:
SAN FRANCISCO. November 5-The
threatened strike or the employees of the
Great Northern railroad has caused no little
comment among local railroad men. and
especially among the members of the AR.U.
The dissatisfaction of the hill men has
peculiar significance in this city and Sac
ramento. and it is generally admitted that
on the success or failure of strike on the
Great Northern railway system at this time
hinges the future of all organized railway
labor west of the Missouri
Incidentally it may be said that on the
Southern Pacific system there has been I'M
usual activity of late on the part of labor
Unions.
Within the past month it is officially de-
clared by the local A. Il. officers that nine
lodges of that order have been successfully
organized on the Pacific coast All this
work has been effected through the instru-
mentality of James Hogan of Salt Lake City
" no is the general western representative of
F. V. Debs, and one of the nominees for Con-
gress ir the coming election in Utah on the
peoples party ticket.
Hogan. it is said, has three travelling dele
gates in this state, who have reported to
him that A-R.U. sentiment is stronger than
ever on this coast, and promised within
three months to bring almost every railroad
employee in California and Oregon into the
camp before the new year.

ANDREW WALL CONVICTED.
Found Guilty Of Conspiracy to De-
fraud.

round Guilty OF conspiracy to De.
fraud.
Special Dispatch to Thu Evening Star.
PlTTSBURG. November 5.-Andrew Wall,
vice president of the Fidelity and Columbia
Building and Loan Association, was this
morning found guilty of conspiracy to de-
fraud in connection with the conduct Of the
business Of the association in this city. All
the other defendants were acquitted. The
court instructed the jury that a conviction
of any except Wall would not be allowed
to stand, and the jury, after being out but
half an hour found Wall guilty as indicted.
Surprise Mt the Verdict Here.
The news of the conviction of Andrew
WALL late president of the Fidelity and the
Columbia Loan and Investment companies
Of this city, was not generally known in
Washington this afternoon, and Star re-
porter, who carried the information around
and requested opinions on it. found that in
terest in the case had nearly died out.
Several gentlemen who had followed the af-
fairs of the 6efunct companies expressed
81 rErise at Mr.. Wallis conviction upon the
testimony given In the Pittsburg court, and
one of them said that Receiver Williamson,
whose testimony had been depended upon
by the prosecution to make strong case
against Wall, had testified that his close
examination of the books and accounts had
discoy cred no instance of any diversion of
furds by the accused, TOT had he found
that the latter had in any case overdrawn
his regular fixed salary.
Mr.. Harrison Dingman said that during
the two days he was in attendance on the
trial in Pittsburg he had heard no testi-
mony to convict any one of conspiracy to
defraud or other offense of such a charac-
ter, and he seemed surprised at hearing
that verdict of guilty had been rendered.
1t Is not thought that the result of the
trial in Pittsburg will lead to any further
complications in the affairs of the COM
panies here, which are in the hands Of the
courts and are awaiting settlement.

Here is a suggestion that may
save some business man money.
A business man advertises for
profit-not to see his name in
print.
Advertising that does not be-
get profitable results is dear at
any price.
Advertising space in one pa
per costing fifteen cents a line
may be profitable investment,
while in another space at a cent
a line may be excessively dear.
Note that The Stars advertis-
ers are the prosperous concerns
of Washington.

Wedding Ceremony Rehearsal.
LONDON. November 5.-The Standard
says that the marriage Of the Duke OF MARI
borough to Miss Consuelo Vanderbilt will
be celebrated on all the dukes estates. The
bells will be rung In all the churches where
he has property. and the employees will be
given a holiday and a dinner. The news
papers here eagerly print the reports from
New York of the preparations for the we'd
ding, but the Sun. referring to the so-called
rehearsal of the ceremony, says: 1.-The re-
hearsal was essentially American and vul-
gar. No clergyman here would permit 1t.
The Westminster Gazette this afternoon
prints a cartoon headed:
THE Dukes Return From the Land of
Dollars"
The cartoon represents the Duke Of MARI
borough reclining in the stern of a pleasure
boat, with his bride on top of pile of dol

ComMittee Blnmes the Gold Plank.

OTTUNWA, Iowa, November SC. A.
Walsh. secretary of the state democratic
central committee. interviewed while home
to vote, practically conceded the election of
Drake today. He said: IF he has over 49,
90 plurality, 1 will be fooled. but think he
will have something under but near that
figure. If 1t had not been for the Marshall
town convention adopting the gold stan
dard Babb would have been elected"
The weather seems to be good all over the
state and everything favorable for election
day. The general feeling here in both
parties Is that the vote will be light. The
republican plurality will be about the same
In proportion. There is little enthusiasm
in regard to state issues, and the interest
ence between this and the last election
ences between this and the last election
will be on the nominees for the legislature.
Some republicans will be defeated this year
where they were elected last. The state re-
ports ar slow coming in. Indications con-
tinue for light vote.
