A Mine in a City Street

To discover mining opeINtions con-
Quoted ON a large scale in the streets
of a city gives striking indication of
the magnitude Of the engineering prob
lens entailed by the new rapid tran
sit subway in New York. Far uptown,
at the corner of 16Sth Street and the
BOULEVARD in New York. on rocky
hill of the same material as the Pail
sades across the Hudson River, stands
a little building recognizable by one
who knows mining, as shaft house.
Up at 1S1st Street Is another Inside
each is an engine and a drum; outside
is a framework for two elevators that
run alternately up and down a great
square shaft-the mine.
In no essential particulars do these
mines with street cars running 100 feet
above them, in New York city, differ
from the mines Of Michigan and Col
orado. Where timbering is necessary
it is regular mine timbering. The
tunnel has become the home of an
army of rats; no mine is lucky, miners
say, unless it harbors rats The four
mules employed in each tunnel are
stabbed there below near the bottom
of the shaft. Never going up to the
surface, they plod steadily along the
tramwav with their carloads of rock

DELEGATES TO C0NSTITU-
TIONAL CONVENTION CHOSEN

New Haven, Nov. 5. = Connecticut
chose today delegates to the first con-
stitutional convention to be held in the
state since 1918. On the first Wednes-
day nj January, 1902, the delegates
elected today will assemble in Hart
ford to begin the work of remodelling
the states constitution. OF the 168
towns in the state, 1865 have been heard
from, showing thaat Republican dele
gates were elected in 105, Democrats in
A. and Citizen or non-partisan candi-
dates in 16.
The convention will seat some of the
most prominent men in the state,
among them being former Gov. Waller
of New London; Chief Justice Andrews
of Litchfield; ex-Congressman Vance
of New Britain; Charles Hopkins
Clark of the Hartford Courant; Col. N.
G. Osborne Of the New Haven Reg

turns from Various States

Columbus, O., Nov. 5.-Returns indi-
cate Republican gains in Cincinanti,
Cleveland, Toledo, GAINESVILLE, Ports
mouth, Springfield and other cities,
the single exception being Columbus,
the home of both Gov. Nash and Col.
James Kilbourne, the Democratic can
didate for governor.
The greatest Republican gains are
outside of the large cities. Some of
the Democratic counties report the
largest Republican gains. A notable
instance in the rural districts was
found in Pike and Adams counties,
which Jointly elected a Democratic
member of the Legislature for the first
time in eight years. At 10 o'clock the
Democrats state committee has no
claims to make on the state ticket or
Legislature.
Col Kilbourns said he felt better
over carrying his home of Franklin
county with a Democratic gain of over
5000 than he had if he had been elect
ed governor without carrying Frank
lin county.
Chairman Dick at 10 o'clock gave out
a statement that the Republicans had
carried the state by over $4,000 with a
QeClSlNG IIldJOIlly III ColSl1 VI e1AASAA VI SAAN
Legislature.
The greatest Republican demonstra-
ton here tonight was over the returns
from Toledo, showing that Nash had
carried Lucas county and that the leg
islatiVe ticket here is elected
AS Gov Nash had opposed the appro-
priation for the proposed Ohio centen-
NAL exposition in that city, 1t was ex-
pected that he would lose that county

Chairman Dick had made his statement
the Republicans raised their estimates
several thousand The result continues
the Republicans in power in the state
making an epoch of II years in sue
cession for that party in Ohio, and ID
insures the reelection of Senator For
aker.
The extent of the Republican sue
cess is attributed to the silver Demo
Gratis not voting; to the attitude fo
John r. Mclean, Democratic candidate
for governor two years ago, and Ohio
member of the Democratic nationa
committee; to. the superior organiza-
ton of the Republicans and Other
causes. The Republicans attribute the
result largely to the popular desire mo-
to disturb the prevailing prosperity il
accordance with Senator Hanna's ap
peal to ''let we'll enough alone;" to the
desire to support President Roosevelt
in carrying out the policy of Mckinley
and to the endorsement of Gov. Nasl
and Senator Foraker.
The Republicans are so elated owe
their triumph that they are alreadG
talking of Congressman Dick, who hal
been chairman of their state COMMITTEES
for eleven years for governor two year.
hence WIN Senator Hanna stands fol
reelection, and it is currently reported
that John R. Mclean then will be thu
Democratic candidate for senator. L
is generally believed that Hon. Charles
w. Baker, of Cincinnati, who has beer
an avowed candidate against Forakel
will receive the complimentary vote O.
the Democratic minority in the presen
legislature.

DEMOCRATIC MAYORS
FOR RHODE ISLAND CITIES

Providence, Nov Sin the election
of Gov. Gregory and the entire ticket
by plurality of at least 5000, the Re
publicans of Rhode Island, with a ma
jority in both branches of the general
assembly, have again retained the
guidance of the state politics. The
campaign lacked feature and the re-
suit was a decreased vote at the polls.
The Democrats cut down by 5000 votes
the plurality Of the Republicans in the
last election. The Democrats elected
their mayoralty candidate by substan-
tial pluralities in Providence, Paw
tucket Woonsocket and Newport and
the Republicans were successful in the
new city Of Central Falls. In 119 dis
tricts out of 139 including the city of
Providence the vote was as follows:
Gregory, (R,) 1890; Garvin Cd 14,39S;
Bright man (P) 1915; Reid, Is. L.
1430.

MIR. BRYAN'S SPEECHES
WERE ALL IN VAIN

Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 5.-Indications at 10
o'clock based on scattering precinct re-
turns, were that Nebraska had reattirmed
her verdict of last year in favor of the
Republicans. Figures up to that hour,
mainly from the smaller towns and few
country districts showed a Republican
gain of four to the precinct over a year
ago, when the average Republican ma
jority was $500. If these gains are sus-
tanned, Sedgwick (Rep), for Supreme
Court justice will carry the state by
from 5000 to 10000 At Republican Head
quarters the claim is made of 10000, but
the indecisiveness of the figures are adj
mitted

OFF IN RHODE ISLAND

Providence, Nov. with scarcely
half the districts in the state heard
from the Republican plurality for the
state ticket promises to run well over
5000. This is a net loss of $500 from last
year, due to the light vote. Seventy
districts in the state out of 1S9 give
Gregory (R.) 1913; Garvin Cd 6172.

MAJORITY IN VIRGINIA

election today the Democrats polled only
about IS per cent of their vote, the result
surpassed their most sanguine eepecta-
tions. The negroes took little interest in
the contest and the indications now are
that the Democratic majority for the
state ticket will be more than 25OOO.
The Democratic majority on joint bal

ing. On the legislative ticket the Demo-
Gratis made gains in the southwest, where

REPUBLICAN GAINS IN
IOWA SUBSTANTIAL

Des Moines Ia, Nov. 5.-Returns from
the state are coming in very slowly, the
polls having been held open until o'clock
in most precincts. The figures from the
first 10 precincts show a Republican vote
of 1901 Democratic TAI. The same pre-
cincts two years ago gave the Republicans
1898, Democrats 91S. This shows a net
Republican gain of 147, which, if con-
tinued in the same ratio, will make about
81, 900 net Republican gain in the state
and give Cummins for governor plurali-
tY of $1,000.

Nansen's Prophecy

In view of Peary's successful failure
it is keenly interesting to read what
Nansen writes about his chances OF
success two months before he was
heard from. We quote from Leslie s
Monthly for November.
Peary was to employ the winter,
along with the Eskimos in making
preparations for the expedition, and
the Windward was to take them on
board again, next summer, and carry
+. them farther north. In accordance
with this arrangement the Windward
started for the place of rendezvous, last
summer, but did not come back in the
autumn, so that Peary's expedition, like
Sverdrup's, can scarcely be heard Of
before August or September of this
year. What Peary may have accom-
plished or may have a prospect of ac-
comprising it is Of course difficult to
forecast. am inclined to regard It as
a drawback to his scheme that he is
in so great a degree dependent upon
the Eskimos. who understand little or
nothing of the objects of such an ex-
petition, and whose actions are so
largely determined by the mood of the
moment. At the same time we may be
certain that, however circums tances
may shape themselves, Peary, with his
incompatible energy and his many
mental and physical resources, will
achieve something Of importance.
