BREAK IN SOLID SOUTH
RETURNS INDICATE REPUBLICAN
VICTORY IN MISSOURI
FOLK is ELECTED GOVERNOR
Indications Are That a Republican
Will Succeed Francis M. CoekreIl
as United States Senator--Galn
Seven Consressmen.

st Louis. Nov lO-With nCOm-
olete returns at hand and the result
OF the state and national election
coming IN slowly from the outlying
counties, Roosevelt has broken the
solid south" by carrying Missouri
for the Republican party for the first
time III thirty years.
Fifty eight widely scattered Coun.
ties, out of ia. give the national uCk.
ct plurality over Judge Parker Of
governor running In the nelghborhood
OF 10000 ahead Of the state ticket, Is
given a plurality OF 3lO43 IN the same
counties, which include the city of
st Louis.
Carried with the Republican land.
slide are the candidates for congress
in eight Of the sixteen districts. a Re
publican gain OF seven, aud the sent
official returns from the state leglsla
tive districts give Republican ma.
jortty of fourteen on joint ballot IN
the next generally assembly.
This Will mean the defeat Of United
| States Senator CoCkrell for reelec
! tiOn. His probable successor will be
either Cyrus X Walbrdge, Republic
an candidate for governor. or Thomas
X Niedringhaus. chairman OF the Ee
publican state committee.
The returns on other than the heads
OF the respective state tickets are
meager and 1t is impossible to predict
with any degree of certainty the out
come when the official vote is re
ceived. 1t appears, however that, eX
cept the candidate for governor, the
entire Republican state ticket is elect
ed by small majorities and that the
election of Mr., Folk is a great per
sonal record victory, as he went out
Of st. Louis 5000 to 10000 ahead o
his ticket. and with 5000 greater plu
rality than was given Roosevelt. who
carried the city by 1000 plurality.
Just previous to the closing OF the
Democratic state headquarters here
Chairman Evans Of the state Centra
committee stated. From the ncom

MAKES PLEA FOR ARBITRATION


London, Nov. lO.-Lord LausdOwne,
in the absence of Premier Balour at
the historic lord mayors banquet
made strong plea for peace and ar.
bilration on behalf Of the British gov.
eminent Lord Lansdowue pointed
out to a large and rather unsympa-
thetIC audience that arbitration was
the only way that the North sea dis.
pute with Russia could have been
equally settled. and, almost in the
same breath drew a vivid picture OF
the horrors of the struggle now pro-
ceedlng in the. east Between the
lines OF every reference the foreign
minister made to the Russo-Japanese
war was an urgent plea, amounting
almost To a demand that it might be
settled by arbitration. 1t was care
fully prepared statement, made be-
fore what is considered the most rep
resentative gathering of leading men
In Great Britain. AS such, 1t was gen
orally interpreted as bolder bid foi
intervention than has yet emanated
from any neutral power, America was
writ large in this speech. for which
Great Britain has been waiting fol
many days The foreign minister pre-
faced all his remarks by saying

CHEAP STEEL FOR sHIPBUILDERs.
Pressure Brought to Put American Yards on
as Good Footing as English.

Pressure is being brought to bear on the Ameri-
can steel manufacturers TO induce them TO make
special rates for the builders OF ocean vessels In
the United States Steel plates and angles cost sz
a gross ton more delivered to the shipbuilders on
the Atlantic Coast here than they do delivered IN
the yards of British shipbutlders. and this, to-
gether with the higher cost Of labor in the United
States, places the shipbuilde:s here at serious
disadN antage.
Now that the steel industry here Is suffering
from a relaxation OF trade and orders are being
parity with those which are charged by the British
manufacturers in England. II is argued that the
time is opportune to encourage the shipbuilding
interests this country by making terms that VIII
place them more nearly on an equal footing with
foreign competitors. The idea is TO place the or
ders for ocean going vessels in the same category
with export orders.
