The Victory in New York stirs the
English Editors.
London, Nov 6-The most yindictive
opponents of Tammany Hall even in the
thick of the campaign could not have
painted an organization in Stacker colors
than do the editors of the afternoon
newspapers here today In congratulating
New York on the results of election.
1.-THE success of Low is an event on
which every friend of America, every
lover of virtue and honesty anywhere
has good reason to raise paens of con-
eratulations,,' says the st. James Ga
zette. The Pail Mall Gazette says:
"The gods that preside over honest gov
scrnment deserve libation from every
good citizen thruout the world" West
minister Gazette remarks: THE New
Yorker seems at last to have grasped
that he has citizens responsibility for
good government of his city. With
president who has declared against the
spoils system and de-Tammanized New
York. the administrative outlook for the
United States is brighter than for long
time past

MILLIONS UP IN CASH WAeERs.
New York Betting the Biggest Known
In ANY Municipal Election.

In Any Municipal Election.
New York, Nov. 6.-Probably no other
municipal election was made the basis
of such heavy speculation as was yes
terday's In this city. 1t is conserva-
lively estimated by good judges that
So 600, 600 was wagered on the battle fol
the mayoraIty of New York. Nor was
this speculation confined TO professional
betting men, as many of the big wagers
chroGicled from day to day We're cred
tied TO citizens with few or no sporting
tendencies.
AS far as can be learned authorita-
lively, the heaviest individual winner
on Mr.. Lows election is John w. Gates,
whose profits are put down as 100000.
while the man who suffered the worst
financially from backing Mr.. Shepard is
David Johnson Tho the latter undoubt-
edly placed a lot of syndicate money, it
Is known that he had more than 100000
of his own staked On the result. A big
winner on the race track and recently
successful in Wall street, this young
plunger of the betting ring put his cleo
ton wagers down in blocks of $4,000
and $4,000. Johnsons ups and downs
in the world of speculation during the
last fifteen years have been many, and
all he would say last night in talking
over the election was: Il have made
another mistake"
Among the professional betting men
who have profited largely over the fu-
sion success is George Wheelock, a
bookmaker, whose winnings will prob
ably foot up $4,000 Wheelock acted as
n; har ;,ar IN,
out of the city. and some of the largest
wagers recorded on the mayoralty con-
test were credited to MIN. He also be
heavily on his own account, most of his
money being wagered at odas of to 5
and even.
One of the heaviest individual win
ners on the success of Mr.. Low is Gott-
fried Wallbaum, bookmaker and sport
ing man. Just as soon as the romina-
tions were made Mr.. Wallbaum began
to support Mr.. Low. and always getting
a shade the better of the oads he placed
something like $4,000 at to TO-
Another big winner is Lieutenant
Governor Woodruff, who, it is said by
his friends, was behind many of the
large commissions placed by profess
sional on the fusion candidate.
Michael j. Dady is also good winner
over Mr.. Lows victory. Always a big
better on elections, Mr.. Dady was es-
pecially earnest in his support of Set.
Low.
Tho James r. Keene was strone
supporter co MIR. Low, he did not place
a wager on the election. but his son-in-
law, Talbot Taylor. is known TO have
won $4,000

SIBERIAN ROAD INADEQUATE.
Captain Wissins Urges Development o.
Waterway Systems.

waterway Systems.
London, Nov Capt. Joseph Wig
gins, the arctic explorer WHO discovered
the Kara sea route, yesterday afternoon
reported to the Anglo Russian Society
the result of his investigation of the
commercial routes of Siberia. He de-
clared that the Trans Siberian railway
IS inadequate to handle the volume OF
freight it is called on to carry and urged
Russia to develop the Waterways OF ST.
IBERIA.
There is no country in the world. not
even the United States said Capt. Wig
gins, that possesses river routes as
magnificent as those of Siberia. Yet the
development of these routes has been
neglected owing to the opposition of the
merchants who control the overland
route, who have persuaded the govern
rsent to impose heavy duties on goods
brought by water. These merchants de-
sire 10 maintain exorbitant prices at the
cost of hindering the progress OF the
country.
salt worth in London s2.44 ton is
sold in northern Siberia for SoS.39 ton.
rhe inhabitants willingly trade ton of
wheat for a ton of salt. TIE capacity of
the Trans-Siberia railway is already
taxed to its utmost TO carry the most
extensive freights. such as silks and
teas. and it is impossible for the system
TO handle grain and cheap merchandise.
II am convinced that the new settlers
in Siberia will not submit much longer
to the restrictions imposed on them at
the instance of the merchants but viii
force the government to repeal the du-
ties and open the rivers to tradh. benefit
ing foreign importers and inhabitants

LEGISLATURE Will Be Asked TO Change
incorporation Charges.
Des Moines, Nov 6.-Important modi-
toations of the laws relating to corpora
tons for pecuniary profit will be sought
by the secretary of states office when
the general assembly meets next winter
One of the most important of these
changes that is sanctioned by the secre-
tary's department relates to the fees for
fling articles Of Incorporation. The fees
fixed by the Iowa law are now abnor-
mally low as compared with those of
many other states. They could, with pro-
! priety, it is claimed, be increased large
". Deputy Secretary Hites was asked
yesterday whether any increase in fees
would be recommended. He said that
while no general increase of fees would
be sought an effort would very probably
be made to have the limit that may be
charged for filing removed. The code,
UP to the time of the Twenty-seventll
general assembly. fixed $3.50 as the max
imum Incorporation fee. The Twenty
seventh general assembly increased this
to 81, 600. 1t is now deemed wise to have
this limit set aside entirely and to
charge companies with large capital the
same relative sum as smaller corpora
TONS or at any rate to increase the limit
heavily.
The law now requires corporations to
pay to the secretary of state "a fee of
so5 and for all authorized stock in ex-
cess of $4,000 an additional fee of 81 per
| 81 OO0."
| Not long ago the Burlington system
| Incorporated for $100000,000. It's incor-
| poratio fee was but $1,000 Had the
limit not been fixed by law at this
| amount the revenues of the state would
have been added to largely. The same
is true of several corporations formed
| in the course of the past year.
| Another change that Mr.. Hites said
/ yesterday the legislature ought to make
relates to the fling of articles by for
! eign corporations Under the law now
| foreign corporations organized for car
/ rying on mercantile manufacturing
| business" are exempt from the necessity
| Of filing articles in Iowa. The original
/ purpose, of course, was to encourage the
/ location of manufacturing industries
| here. Now it is believed there is suffi-
! cient local capital interested in manu-
/ featuring in Iowa that it is discriminate
/ ing against it unfairly to permit foreign
corporations to come i'm without comply
ing with the same regulations as Iowa
4 corporations. 1T is the purpose to have
/ this changed next winter and to put for
! eign corporations on the same plane as
] Iowa corporations IN all respects.

Rayner, discussing the testimony OF
Lieutenant Commander Potts. said the
commander had said he was always
scared In battle Lemly protested
against the language and sharp verbal
encounter between the two occurred,
when Lemly said Rayner was "unrelia-
ble.'' You" replied Rayner ARE not
only unreliable, but you are offensive"
Dewey interfered to say the court would
consider all the testimony and that Potts
had said he was scared. but Mr.. Rayner
had stretched the testimony little.
There was, however, no occasion for as
cerbity. Lemly then said he regretted
having made the remark and Rayner
continued his speech.
During the passage-at-arms Lemly
accused Rayner of attempting to tra-
duce the reputation of an officer. This.
he said, he had no right to do And

Schley. The admiral was in tears as he
delivered his peroration. wave of ap-
plause swept over the room as Rayner
concluded. The court then adjourned
until o'clock tomorrow.
