SLOW VOTE IN RHODE ISLAND
REPUBLICANS CLAIM THE
STATE FOR TAFT COLUMN.
Democrats Will Probably Elect
Their Candidate for Governor
and One Representative.
Snecial Disnafch to The Star

Special Dispatch to The Star.
PROVIDENCE, r. l., November g.
The election is proceeding quietly in
Rhode Island. with the indications that
the state will be found in the Taft col
umn with about the usual vote.
Senator Aldrich, satisfied that it would
be SO, left early last week to watch the
New York campaign. Representative
Changers popularity insures his re-elec-
ton as a democratic representative, but
Cooney, the other democratic nominee,
probably will be defeated by Representa-
tive Capron.
Owing to the marlborough system, the
state is republican in national politics
and town elections. while in the citiesdtis
very probable that the democratic candi-
dates will win out. 1t seems probable
that Olney Arnold will be elected a demo-
rema inder of the ticket principally re-
publican. Providence and Newport will
elect democratic mayors. The independ-
ence ticket had practically no vote.
No senators will be elected this year
Senator Aldrich's term does not expire
for two more years. Owing to the pleas
ant weather conditions a large republi-
can vote was polled all over the state
There was no enthusiasm no professions
and no brass band work to enthuse yot-
ers. This lack of excitement, coupled
with the poor business conditions in the
state for the past year, produced the
quietest presidential campaign that
Rhode Island ever witnessed

DIRECTED TO VOTE STRAIGHT
NEW YORK REPUBLICANS TOLD
NOT TO TRADE HUGHES.
Peremptory Orders Issued From
State Headquarters to the Pre-
cinct Captains.

Special From Staff Correspondent.
NEW YORK, November 3-Peremptory
word went out from republican state
headquarters to the district leaders and
precinct captains that there must not be
any trading off, of Hughes by republi.
cans today. This has caused great sat-
isfaction to Gov. Hughes friends, who
have been afraid of treachery in New
York city. Tney knew that the national
administration, conscious of the great
service rendered by the governor to Taft
in the west and exercising common
dog gratitude, would not sanction trad
ing off the governor, but they were afraid
of the small fry. The admonition from
state headquarters is expected to check
any contemplated treachery in this di.
rection, however.
In contrast with this state of affairs
in the republican camp is the widespread
understanding that Tammany will ruth.
lessly trade Bryan for Chanler today.
Charles F. Murphy's friends know that
he does not expect Bryan's election, and
Tammany. 1t is alleged, intends to look
out for its own, which in this case means
the subernatorial ticket also.
Republican weather is the expression
heard on every side. 1t is one of those
glorious fall days for which the New
York climate is noted. crisp and bright.

Reports from upstate indicate that a

managers are keeping up a bold front to

SCRATCHING IN OHIO
UneasinesS Caused in Both
Political Camps.
LARGE VOTE BEING CAST
Liberal League Supporting the Dem
ocratic Ticket.
UNCERTAINTY AS TO RESULT
Republicans Likely to Lose Two and
Perhaps Three Representatives
in Congress.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
COLUMBUS. Ohio. November 3-Elec-
ton day in Ohio opened up clear and
cool and from the time that the polls
opened there was a steady rush and the
judges and clerks were kept busy From
the time spent behind the little thin
white curtains to the voters booths. there
is no question that great deal of
scratching is being done.
News from points throughout the state
indicate that the largest vote ever polled
in Ohio will be cast today. Everywhere
scratching their tickets and spending
much time in the booths
Both Sides Uneasy.
This is the news that is causing I'M
easiness in both camps. and only the count
of the votes tonight will tell the story.
What the result will be in Ohio every
resident of the United States knows just
as much as the best politician in Ohio.
Politics in Ohio today are chaotic, dis
turbed and conglomerated, and. although
both parties expect to win and give rea-
sons for so thinking, they have not that
faith in their belief that they usually
have.
Although the republican state chair
man has said that Ohio will give Taft
100000 plurality, every republican worker
is out in every precinct in the state. and
If that plurality is not forthcoming it will
not be the fault Of the committee. The
same can be said of the democrats.
In Ohio this year the condition is one
filled with surprises, every day bringing
out something unexpected and surprising.
The Liberal League is said to have a
large fund and is instructing it's voters to
vote the democratic ticket straight today.
That was one of the biggest surprises of
election day. 1t is not taking any
chances with it's men making mistakes
In marking of the blanket ticket and
rather than make any mistakes they are
ordered Vote her straight" The social
lists will show a large gain in Ohio, the
prohibtionists will hold their own. On
the state ticket Gov. Andrew Harris is
having the fight of his life to hold his
place. To see one or two state offices
filled by democrats would not be surprs-
ing.
Republicans Lose Congressman.
The democrats will gain at least two
and possibly three representatives. George
White in the fifteenth seems sure win
ner over James Joyce Of Cambridge, and
it is predicted that NJ. A. Sears of Chilli
Gothic will defeat Albert Douglass of that
James Jox will win in the third. dis
trict always heretofore republican
1t is expected that Taft will carry the
state by sac majority, but just how
large that will be no one is able to figure.
Yet it would not be surprising if Bryan

plurality. Things are just that badly
mixed that bets are being made both
ways.

Carrying County by Safe Majority.
Special Dispatch to The Star.
CUMBERLAND, Nd, November g.
The voting in Allegany county this morn
ing was not any faster than usual cleo
tons. but there is every indication of a
swift vote at the noon hour and on I'D
to o'clock. The interest is intense,
but there is no excitement about the
polls. There is an absence of war
horse party workers, especially among
the republicans, while the democrats.
whose organization has new lease Of

]. Stump. Col. Pearre's chief worker in
Cumberland, voted this morning as soon
as the polls opened and left Immediately
for New York. This is the first time In
vote-getter for Pearre, has not been
about the polls. He always remained all
day. 1t is reported that a GOODNESS ex-
lists between him and Pearre.
workers say there Is heavy cut on
Pearre in Cumberland. 1t is known that
Lewis is getting scores of republican
votes, but Pearre. too, is knowingly
counting on some of his old democratic
supporters.
The Endorsement of Pearre by the Anti.
Saloon League is helping him.
Col. Pearre yesterday sent an indorse-
ment of Gompers of his course in Con-
gress to members of labor unions in the
county. Some republicans resented this,
claiming that the Pearre people were sac
rificing Taft to aid Pearre. The demo-
Gratis say it is a trick and this morning
they circulated the following:
"A circular letter sent out yesterday to
union workmen by Col. Pearre has been
discovered to be an old letter used in the
last Pearre-I1owndes primary campa.gn
with the date changed. Everybody knows
that Samuel Gompers has Endorsed Bryan
and the democratic platform"
Mr.. Lewis and Col. Pearre are both ac-
tive among the voters today, and both
express confidence. The weather is adj
mirable. The indications are favorable to
Pearre carrying the county by a reduced,
but safe, majority.

G. 0. P. HOPES IN INDIANA RISE
POLLS HEAVY VOTE FOR THE
STRAIGHT TICKET.
Democratic Expectations of Scratch
ing Not Realized-Odds on Re-
suits Change.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, November g.
Heavy and rapid voting in Indianapolis
and other large cities of this state indi-
Gated at noon that little scratching was
being done.
This made republicans rejoice, mas
much as their candidates had been under
attack. though their principles had been
Endorsed.
The vote in this city was unprecedent-
eddy heavy during the morning hours
Democrats, who had claimed the state
by 10000 for Thomas R. Marshall for
governor and by $4,000 for Bryan, adj
mitted at noon that perhaps their esti-
mates had been a bit high. Republicans
insisted that their claims for Taft ana
James E. Watson to carry the state nv
10000 or more were being borne out.
The temperance question and the oppo-
sition of organized labor to Taft and
Watson had made democrats feel that
there would be much scratching. The
fact that this did not happen disappointed
them to a degree.
In Indianapolis the voting in the col
ored and foreign precincts was the heav-
fest ever known. This indicated repub-
llcan success, notwithstanding the re-
publican county ticket had been under
hSoNy ADAMS DcCduSc OI courthouse
frauds.
With the heavy and straight party vot-
ing odds on Marshall disappeared. Re
publicans gobbled up all the even money
in sight
Republican hope is brighter right now
than 1t has been any moment in this
campaign. Democrats. while not con-
ceding any ground thought to have been
gained by them, are not as jubilant as
they were when the polls opened at &
this morning.
INDIANAPOLIS. Ind, November g.
Chairman Goodrich of the republican
state committee, speaking of the voting
today, said:
From the reports 1 am receiving from
all over the state heavy vote is being
polled The Indications are that there is
little scratching being done. and 1 have
reason to believe that Taft will carry In
diana by a large plurality"
Stokes Jackson, chairman of the demo-
cratic state committee. said:
There is heavy vote being cast to-
day, and that is an indication that the
democratic ticket will be successful in In
diana. 1 believe Bryan will carry the
