TOrrtngtOn tnds ln the Deteat ot tHe Saloon Men.
 Miniature battles of the ballot were weged in 162 of the 16S towns in Con- necticut yesterday when the elections which have come to be known as the little town elections" were held. Hart ford, New Haven, Bridgeport, Ansonia, Derby and Naugatuek did not partici- pate in the voting. The republicans carried the day in 122 towns, the demo- crats in 8 and the tiny town of Kil7 lingworth, Middlesex county, by virtue of it's isolation was not to be heard from. Killingworth for the last two years has been democratic. Norwalk South Norwalk and New London held city elections. The two Norwalks elect ed democratic mayors, while the repub- licans in each of those cities were suc- cessful in electing the balance of their tickets. In New London the city elec- tion was complicated affair. The democrats elected councilmen in three of the five wards but the complexion of the city council was not changed. The mayoralty, being a biennial affair in odd years, was not involved,
 The result of the town elections held in 162 of the townships showed a gain over last year for the republicans of four towns. In 1901 the republicans carried 11S towns, the democrats A. In the presidential year of 1900 these little town elections showed republican vic tories in 125 towns as against demo- cratic success in 37. Comparisons oi the results of to-day in towns compris- ing the four congressional districts with the results in the same district towns in the little elections of 1900 show but slight changes. These comparisons in- dicate republican losses and gains as follows: First district, republican, los: of one town; Second district, republi can gain of one town; Third district, { republican gain of two towns; Fourtl district, republican loss of five towns
 There were no great upheayals excep in Stamford where after repeated fail ures the democrats elected the towl ticket.
 ,Torrington furnished the breezies fight of the day. It was not politica in aspect, however, and the biggest vot ever boiled in a Torrington town cleo ton was cast to-day to settle the licens question. The fight in the town ha been carried on for months and it cul minated to-day in vote against licens by a majority of 1SS. The towns in tn state including the cities and towns nc voting to-day stand for license S2; n license S6. Last year "A towns believe in license and 94 were against it.

MAY SET TOM HORN FREE
Attorneys Claim They Have Found
Man Who Makes Confession that
He IL the

CHEYENNE, Wyo.. Nov. 3.-(Special)-
A man in a position to know says that
Judge J. W. Lacey. chief OF counsel for
Tom Horn. was not boasting when he said
he could lay his hands on the man that
killed Willie Nickel and that he had also
secured the confession OF the real muir
derer. 1t is claimed that Willie Whitman,
son of a neighboring ranchman Of the Nick
ellis and Millers. at Iron Mountain, is the
important witness OF Horns attorneys.
II is alleged that Victor Miller confessed
TO Willie Whitman that he killed Willie
Nickel, and that when cornered Victor ad-
mitted the killing to others.
The prosecution and those connected with
the case place not the slightest faith in the
story OF Horns attorneys. and say the
the purpose OF creating in the mind of
Judge Scott a doubt so that he will grant
a new trial; also TO create a doubt in the
mind of the governor OF the state so that
he can consistently commute Horns SEN
tence to Imprisonment when the case is
finally laid before him.
II is almost certain, however, that Horn
will be shown no favors by Governor De
Forest Richards. II the chief executive is
reelected for another term. Richards,
while possessing a kindly, sympathetic
authority in many cases by psrdoning con-
yiets, has a keen sense OF right and wrong
and will do nothing TO place a straw in the
way Of the law. His verdict will unques-
tionably be: Let the Law tak it's course"
