Testimony in the Rice

Chicago, April "A complete city and

intensely disagreeable, and during the
morning a light vote was reported from
nearly every ward in the city. Both
democratic and republican party lead
ers professed confidence in the result,
despite light vote. No trouble of con-
sequence was reported from any ward,
and up to noon only one arrest for ille-
gal voting had taken place.
Municipal elections are being held

Missouri and Kansas The weather in
all four states is reported unfavorable

sin judge of the supreme court will be
voted for in addition to the county and
municipal tickets. Judge Joshua Dodge,
present incumbent, has no opposition
for the supreme bench.
The first serious trouble over the
election occurred shortly after noon,
when Frank Hurley. a democratic
worker in the Third ward. was shot and
probably fatally wounded by Thomas
Moriarity. republican worker. The
volume of voting Increased somewhat
all over the city as the day wore on, but
the most liberal estimates did not place
the probable vote at over two-thirds OF
the registration.
