The Herald's election bulletins last
night it was because they were bed
ridden. 1t was rumored early in the
evening that two Hollywood men were
absent, but they appeared later. Street
cars were diverted, and all truck and
automobile traffic was turned aside by
the dense crowd of patriots, which
packed Broadway in front of the Herald
Office. For four hours a squad OF
policemen was kept busier than pup
scratching a hole in a tin roof in an
Intellectual attempt to keep the walks
clear.
Several times reports circulated IN
the crowd that lantern bulletins were
being shown at other offices, but they
could not be verified, and none cared to
leave long enough to investigate. Even
the din of siren whistles and the shoot
ing of cannon crackers ~ other am
bilious purveyors of political informa-
tion failed to interest the dense throng
of zealots breathlessly awaiting news OF
their candidates, and until the last tele-
gram was in. The Herald remained
the converging point of all the down.
town crowds.
The intense excitement of the cam
paign reached a climax as one by one
the bulletins showed the -ace to be
close in different states, and the diff
ferent factions were almost hysterical
in cheering news favorable to their
sides.
The scenic and moving pictures that
were interspersed with the bulletins
were almost as eagerly received as the
political news, and the crowd was gen.
erous in voicing it's appreciation of
The Herald's enterprise. Three cheers
for The Herald were given Justify, and
the crowd thronged the Broadway en-
france in an attempt to offer personal
congratulations to the management.
Cartoonist Barnett contributed to the
gayety of the occasion by number Of
his inimitable cartoons, which We're
thrown on the screen. These included
several playful squibs at the expense
of the defeated candidates.
The pictures and bulletins were by
no means the only diverting features.
Late in the evening a man who looked
like a panhandler with a battered
derby hat several sizes too large for
him, created stir by shouting that he
had $4,000 TO bet on Bryan. Several
persons with sporting proclivities of
fered to relieve him of a part, or the
whole of his superfluous cash, but when
he was asked to put up the money he
recalled that the banks had been closed
during the day and that he had only q
few hundred in his pockets-barely
enough to last until tomorrow.

Taft is not far from 100000. The plur-
ality of President Roosevelt in 1904 was
304,939 for the state.
Stevenson, Democratic candidate for
governor, carried the city of Chicago
by about 5000, and Cook county by
about 5000. He lost heavily, however,
in the state outside of Cook county.

Mr.. Hopkins will be succeeded either
by himself or by another Republican.
In Chicago hot fight was waged
over the Office of states attorney, but
John e. Wayn1an, Republican, was
elected by about 1000.
The Socialist vote showed a consider
able falling off from that of four years
ago. Debs in 1904 received 69,225 votes.
From the returns so far obtained it
seems probable that he will not receive
much over 10000.

DANVILLE, ILL.,, Nov. 3.-Joseph G..
Cannon has been reelected to congress
by a plurality considerably above the
normal. 1t probably will be at least
10,500.
The result has been something of a
surprise even to friends of Mr.. Can
non.
The fight made against him by vari-
Gus church organizations, the Anti-Sa-
loon league and organized labor,
coupled with the fact that the Demo-
Gratis had, for the first time since 1868,
complete organization in this dis
trict, led the Republicans to believe
Mr. Cannon's plurality would not be
over 5000.
In the heaviest union labor sections,
however, Cannon received as large a
vote as he ever received before, and in
some of them he made decided gains.

CHURCH MUSIC Is BAD.
Brooklyn Choir Leader Pleads for an
improvement.

New York, Jan. 22.-That much of
the present day church music has de-
Perforated until 1t is a disgrace, is the
opinion expressed by Prof. Morgan,
choir leader at the Baptist temple,
Brooklyn before a Methodist minis
ter's meeting yesterday. Prof. Nor
gan made a plea for better music and
surprised the clergymen by declaring
that too often in evangelical
churches the music, supposed to be
sacred, is one of the rag time variety
and the words set to the music dog
gerel."
"The music has deterforated and
retrograded,' he said, land lost it's in
spring influence in many churches.
Many of the old socalled hymns are
a disgrace to the church and to mu-
sic.
you wouldn't approach the mayor
Of this city with a two-step, rag time
measure of jing1es That's what
much of the church music is compos-
ed of. You wouldn't walk into the
presence of the governor of this state
to the accompaniment of silly music
such as is frequently heard in our
churches. Surely the church should
be the last place for anything but the
best in music"
Prof Morgan illustrated his re-
marks by playing several airs on the
organ; then he played the pilgrim
chorus from Tannhauser.
Now gentlemen he went on. do
you regard that music as sacred or
profane?"
Many of the clergymen declared
that, despite the air being taken from
an opera, it should be classed as sa-
cred music.

CITIZENS SLASHED.
Unemployed of Berlin Attacked by
Armed and Mounted Police.

Berlin. Jan. 22-There was a ser
ious collision late this afternoon be-
tween the police of this city and a
mob OF unemployed, VINO earlier in
the day had attended one Of the mass
meetings organized and addressed by
the Socialists The police used their
sabres when the crowd hurled missiles
at them and before order was restored
may men were wounded.
The demonstrations when they en-
countered the police were marching
down the Schiffbauerdamm, near the
Lustgarten. The authorities tried to
UP a position around several piles of
tiles before a new theater building
and began hurting tiles at the police.
The policemen were at once re-
inforced by mounted detachment
which charged the crowd with drawn
sabres. The men scattered and fed
but not before many had been in
jured.
At the height of the encounter
there was heard a defamation which
undoubtedly was some sort of a fire
cracker set off by a boy. The police,
however, thought that a revolver had
been fred and they acted in the most
energetic manner. The police on foot
drove the manffestants, numbering
1000 mostly young men and boys into
the mounted squad and the latter
made most vigorous use of their
weapons. Many of the men were ar
rested and the remainder driven away
and scattered. The police have given
orders that work be stopped on sew
eral new buildings being constructed
in the neigh borhood and the workmen
had to go home.
