FEW ARE GOING
HOME TO VOTE
CIVIL SERVICE EMPLOYEES AT
WASHINGTON REMAIN AT
THEIR PoST--FREE TRANS
PoRTATleN NOT EASY AVAIL.
ABLE.

Washington. ID. c.. Nov. Thine
was a few years ago when the ap-
proach of election day brought on
Washington a Sunday quiet For sew
eral days previous TO the election the
departments would empty themselves
Of voters and in all the big govern
ment buildings the forces would be
reduced to the lowest minimum pos.
sible.
During the past few years, how.
ever, conditions have undergone a
great change and so far as Washing
ton is concerned person might never
know that elections will be held IL 4
dozen states next Tuesday. The ex-
tension of the civil service IS one Cf
the great causes for the change and
another is found in the fact that free
transportation Is not floating arouad
nowadays as it was In times gone
by.
A canvass Of the various depart
ments today shows that few heads or
clerks expect to return home to cast
their ballots next week. About the
only exception to the rule is found
in those who come from Maryland or
Kentucky, in which states the con.
tests are regarded as unusually close
and consequently of more than ordl-
nary importance. So far as is known
few government employees who claim
Massachusetts,, Rhode Island. Penn
sylvania, Mississippi. Nebraska, New
Jersey or New York-in all Of which
states some sort Of an election is to
take place Tuesday-will take the
trouble to go home to vote.

LARGE SALE OF

SUPPOSED TO HAVE BouGT
100000 SHARES.
ABSURD SAYS HARTMAN
Secret CHANGES Of Colossal Mature
. Thought to Be Going or in Con

ties.

New York, Nov. There was ;
mysterious transfer in Wall stree
yesterday 100000 shares Of Union Pa
cilc stock
Financiers who are familiar Will
the situation are positive in theil
belief that the new holders, are J. P
Morgan and his associates. They fur
ther declare that e. Fl. Hartman OF
his friends parted with these securi
ties and that the transfer foreshad
ows stupendoGs changes In the con
tro and management CT this great
property
This is In line with the claims that
have been made for some time in
the financial district that the domln.
alton of the Union Pacific Is to pass
cut OF the hands Of Mr. Hartman.
Mr. Hartman himself tonight de-
clared that the story was absurd
and THAT If any transfer of stock hal
taken place 1t was probably In his
direction and not toward the Morgan
crowd.
AS the story goes, William Rookie
feller and Mr.. Hartman during the
afternoon paid visit to one OF the
largest stock broking firms in lower
Broadway. BY peculiar coincidence
the visit preceded by very short
time the report in the street of the
transfer OF the Union Pacific stock.
There is nothing to show that this
firm disposed of any such securities,
but it is known that the firm. has
been engaged In the last ten days in
the clearing out of a number of pools
which had been formed in New York
and which have nearly all been dissi-l
pated.
So far as could be learned tonight
the stock involved in the transaction
was delivered In its entirety to its
purchasers, who paid for it outright
and had it conveyed to their private
vaults.
II has been show by the recent de.
velopments that the two men In Wall
street who control the ready money
are John ID. Rockefeller and j. p.
Morgan. 1t is also understood that |
some months ago John ID, Rockefeller |
broke with his brother William and |
with the others of the Standard Oil
and Amalgamated crowd and has
been working in conjunction with the
Morgan interests.
There is every reason to believe
that these two men are the only ones
in the street at this time who could |
have produced sufficient capital to
negotiate deal of such magnitude as
the purchase of 100000 shares OF I'm
ion Pacific at 81. which would aggre
gate $40 100000
Although it seems evident that
changes of colossal nature are g..
Ing on behind the curtain Of secrecy
always thrown about the Hartman
and that the wrestling OF
control from Hartman, If not al
ready ACCOMPLISHED, is at least
there is little likelihood
that the full details of these opera
ions viii reach the public ear for
some time.
II is generally under stood that n
,hange of Administrative control could
Inly take place gradually and that 1t
would not be a wise policy to cause
needless alarm on the political pub
ic by any precipitate action.
