MEXICO CITY, Nov. 5.-The project
for a treaty of arbitration and court of
arbitration, which will be submitted to
the Pan-American conference tomorrow,
is largely framed on lines recommended
by The Hague peace conference. How
ever it proposes an increased number Of
obligatory subjects for arbitration, and
creates various sanctions with view
to coercion or punishment of nations
which, after signing treaty, fail to live
up to it.
Among the sanctions proposed are the
following: The aggrieyed nation and any
other nation sympathizing with it may
terminate their treaties with the Offend
ing power before the proper date for their
expiration, members of the offending
power on the court of arbitration be
erased therefrom, and, if the majority of
the nations signing the treaty approve,
note of censure may be addressed to the
said power. In extreme cases the dis
approving powers may suspend diploma

mills here, who. a few weeks ago, caused
excitement in labor circles by announcing
an increase of 10 per cent in wages, to-
day gave notice of a return to the origi-
nal schedule Nov. Is. It was stated that

the situation. -
The following is the notice as posted in
all sections of the Iron Works mills:
1.-The market price of la5og in this COM
munity is fixed by the mana cement of
kindred mills, having been formally ac-
,cepted by the. operatives, the wages OF
the employees in the mills OF the Fall
River Iron Works corporation will be re-
duced 10 per cent, to the scale prevailing
prior to the recent advance. The reduce
ton will take effect Monday, Nov. is
/ while the management of this corpo-
ration believes that under existing condi-
tons wages should be advanced, it never
theless cannot pay any more than the
rate accepted in other mills"

NEW YORK, Nov 5.-After several
weeks of the hottest campaign fighting
ever witnessed in this city over a muni-
cipal election, the day when the ballots
were cast passed with unwonted quiet,
considering the high feeling which had
previously been exhibited. There We're
a few fights at the polls among individu-
ais, but none of a serious nature, and
out of the scores of arrests made-antt
most of these were on charges of u
technical character-but few prisoners
were held by the magistrates.
The great feature or the voting was
the early casting of ballots. This applied
to the brown stone as well as to the
tenement house district. There was a
drizzling rain up to a. M, but after
that hour there was nothing to keep
even the most fastidious voter from the
polls.
Seth Low, Fusion candidate for mayor,
cast his ballot at 1885, Edward NJ. Shep-
ard, Democratic candidate, at l1:2H;
Richard Croker and his two sons were

minute after in the morning. Sena-
tor eChauncey NJ. DepewSdropped his bal
lot into the box at 9:45 a. M. and
Mayor Van Wyck waited until 8 D. m.
The practical use of the voting machine
was demonstrated in the Eighteenth dis
trict of the First assembly district
Brooklyn, and the result was known at
I 500 In the afternoon Immediately after
the polls were closed. No difficulty was
experienced in recording the vote, and In
many instances men cast their votes in
less than three seconds
An incident which attracted attention
in New York city was the refusal of the
election Judges in one district to allow
one voter to cast his ballot because he
had made bet of box of cigars on the
result of the election.
Tammany Leaders Say Little.
Richard Croker received the returns III
what is known as the private room OF
Tammany hail. The leader was sur
rounded by a crowd of men long promi-
nent in the organization, among them
John F. Carroll Mayor Van Wyck and
Corporation Counsel Whalen. Mr.. Croker
sat at the press table and listened with
his customary lack of expressed emo
tion as the bulletins were read. From
the first they were unfavorable, but the
crowd of leaders heard the figures called
off without comment
Mr.. Croker from time \ time directed
that comparisons be made with the vote
last year. He declined to make any
statement however, until 7:50 when he
said he thought the Democrats had elect
ed their candidates the county tick
ct. This ticket includes the revised char
ter officers and the important office OF
district attorney, for which Justice VII.
liam Travers Jerome, the Fusionist nOm-
fnee, made notable campaign against
Henry w. Unger, Democrat. At the time
that he claimed the county ticket, Mr..
Croker said he did not care to say any
thing as to the race for the mayoralty.
Mayor Van Wyck, who was q candidate
for the supreme court bench and who
1yoc hi Ia1
paign, was an interested listener as the
returns came in.

CHICAGO, Nov. 5-The directors of the
Chicago Board of Trade tonight by
unanimous vote, decided to send no dele
gates to the annual convention of the
National Boards of Trade The decision
of the local board amounts to withdrawal
from the national organization, and may
result in. the destruction of that body.
The action of the board of directors was
oc occasioned by the belief that the National
Boards of Trade had not accomplished
any of the objects for which it was Or
ganized According to local members, the
meetings of the national organization are
devoted to discussions of abstruse ques-
items. Failure of the department of ag
riculture to act on the many sugges-
tions OF the board precipitated the ac-
