CHECK TO TRADE.
Scarcity Of Freight Cars and
Labor Is Serious.
Many Industries Severely Hand

ADVANCES IN WAGES

New York, Nov. 19s-R. g. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review Of Trade says:
Business experienced the customary
interruption during election week. but
a more permanent retarding influence
was the inadequate supply OF freight
cars and labor. Many industries are
severely handicapped by traffic delays.
IN other cases there is idle machinery
because hands cannot be secured, de-

CYRUS LELAND EXPLAINS IT.
Nothing Irregular in Donfphan COun-
~ Figures He Says.

Cyrus Leland today gave an explana-
ton Of the apparent contradiction of the
election returns from Doniphan county
He said today: 1.-The fact is that it was
ten o'clock on Wednesday before all the
returns were received and even then there
were precincts that made nc return Of the
vote on governor. We had a bitter local
light in the county and that ~overshadow
ed everything else. Accordingly when the
returns were made there we're precincts
that gave the vote on county officers that
had no record of the vote on governor
NV first estimate was zoo plurality for
Hoch but these belated returns increased
the estimate. That is all there is 10 the
talk about the figures in my county
