Turning on the Current Left Null
Inns Elevator in the Shaft.

Alex Miller and Johnny Mullin ex-
perienced a trying ordeal Saturday
morning. They entered the e,eva-
tor in the Muffin building to 90 to
one Of the upper floors. When they
were half way between the first and
second floor the current was switch
ed off at the power house, stoppin /.
the elevator in a position in which
they We're Gagged in for more than
half an hour. Their friends took
advantage of their predicament ana
made it very amusing for the by
ISLANDERS to the great chagrin and
humiliation of the two gentlemen
The travelling men who were stop
ping in the Washington told Mr.. Null
in if he didn't come down immedi-
ately so they could settle up their
bills with him they would leave on
the train about due, and he would
be the loser Others told them that
it was very becoming to see them
behind the bars.
The remarks were coming so
thick and fast that Mr.. Miller took
off his overcoat and hung it over
the side of the elevator car to hide
himself and Mr.. Mullin from the
view of the large crowd that congre-
gated to see what had happened. 1t
was a joyful moment in their lives
when the current was again turned
on and they passed on their upward
journey out of view Of the mirthful
multitude that filled the hall below

STYLES
FOR NEXT SPRING
SACK COAT NEXT YEAR WILL BE
CUT MUCH SHORTER THAN
is STYLE AT PRESENT.
Special to the Herald.

Special to the Herald.
New York, Nov. S.-Clothing manu-
faeturers are intent upon deyoting
some specialties for the spring season
in their suit lines. 1t Is thought that
the sack coat will be modified by be-
ing cut much shorter than was the
style last year, and that in place of
making the three button suit the pop
ular number in their ranges the cloth
iers will force the two button coat to
the front. In box coats the longer
lapel is to be revised and especially
on high grade worsted and wooden
suits care of every detail in construc-
ton is to be exercised. The clothiers
to the trade and the manufacturing
clothier who sells to the retailer, but
does not advertise to the consumer,
have both to meet the sharp compe-
tition OF the latter class of manufac-
tuTers. During the last year or so
they have popularized certain styles
which they originated and controlled,
and it interfered seriously with the
of the general lines of
goods in the retailers hands. 1t is |
the effort Of the general clothing man
ufacturer this year for spring and !
goods to make their lines as
in cut and finish as the
best products Of the advertising cloth
iers.

VOTE NOT COUNTED.
The New York Independence League
Claims Error In Returns.

| New YORK, NOV. 1.-At Ine mead
quarters of the independence league
tonight the following statement was
issued:
Reports from up state indicate not
only Mr.. Hearst cut down the Repub-
lican vote materially, but that the in
dependence league vote for Hearst
was not counted in. many counties.
These votes will have to be added
to the announced results of Mr..
Hearst in order to give the correct
Hearst figures in the state.
Last night Chairman Chanler
stated that his brother, Albert, who
was running for sheriff in Duchess
county, had threatened to bring man
damus proceedings against several
election boards before they had con-
scented to count the independence
league vote for Mr.. Hearst.
To-day other reports were received
indicating that the independence
league votes for Mr.. Hearst we're not
counted in Erie and Allegheny coun-
ties. Reports come in also showing
that in Clinton, Cattaragus, Herki-
mer, Wayne, Albany, onondega and
Washington counties there was a
failure Of the election boards to
count the vote for Mr.. Hearst which
was cast under the scales.
The facts developed today eIalalu
the great falling OF in the total vote
cast yesterday for Mr.. Hearst, com.
pared with the vote two years ago
There is no doubt that the votes rep
resented by this falling off were the
votes cast for Mr.. Hearst and his as
sociates under the emblem. In 1904
the total vote cast for governor was
1,625,950. This year, with sixty-three
election districts missing, only l.
373,450 votes were accounted for, al
though the registration this yeaI was
unusually heavy and the weather con-
ditions and the interest taken in the
campaign tended to bring out 4 full
vote. These matters are being fully
Investigated"
