Plan to Vote Dead Men i'm New York
to BE Blocked.

New York, Oct. 22.-Charges were
made to-day by William J. Connors,
chairman of the Democratic State
committee, that the Republican or
ganizations in upstate counties had
padded the registration rolls with
anywhere from 10000 to 10000
names, and to prevent the casting Of
fraudulent vote, the executive COM
mittee had appointed :. State law
committee with former Judge Alton
B. Parker, as chairman. Mr.. Connors
said that the law committee would be
composed Of about 500 attorneys, and
that on election day these attorneys
would be assisted by special depu-
ties in each election district to see
that ballots were honestly cast and
counted.
Mr.. Connors said:
'"There will be no voting of dead
men by the Republicans in this cleo
ton, and the State committee will
see that our opponents are not per-
mitted to run men over from Penn
sylvania and Canada and vote them
in this State. Already we have dis
covered hundreds Of cases of fraudu
lent registration up the State, and
have succeeded in having the names
stricken off the lists.
eve want square deal. We are
not going to buy the election, and
we have not got the money to buy 1T
with, anyway. We don't propose to
have the Republicans rob us as they
have done in the past"
National Chairman Mack declared
tonight that the change in Mr.. Taft's
plans by which he will speak in thir-
ty-four cities and towns In this State,
instead Of speaking in only few of
the larger cities. as previously an
nounced, indicated that the Republi
can managers felt the necessity Of
carrying this Stale, which was vir-
tuany 2n acknowledgment that they
felt that they were losing in Ohio,

Mack said If the Republicans were
certain Of the Middle Western States,
they would not need New York.

REMARKABLE MEDICAL FIND.
Health Officers Make Discovery as to
Sources of Typhoid Fever.

Washington, Oct 19.-One of the
most remarkable discoveries in medi-
cal history in connection with the
sources Of the spread of typhoid fever
has just been brought to light as the
result OF an investigation made last
night by the officers Of the public
health marine hospital service into a
recent outbreak of that disease in
Georgetown, or West Washington, d.
G. The investigation disclosed the
fact that woman mixer at a neigh
boring dairy, who had had typhoid
fever three years ago, still throws off
in her dejecta virile typhoid fever
bacilli and was the responsible agent
in spreading the disease. With one
exception this is the. first considera-
BILE outbreak of typhoid fever in the
United States traced through milk to
such a carrier.
A peculiar feature in connection
with the case Is that the examination
developed large numbers Of typhoid
bacilli in the dejecta of the woman,
although she apparently was enjoy
ing good health. Surgeon General
Wyman says an important source of
the disease has been developed, and
one which heretofore has not been
duly recognized.
The case just discovered is deemed
Of special interest to health officers in
tracing obscure sources of typhoid
fever outbreaks. Gen. Wyman states
that this case establishes the fact that
at least per cent of all recovered
cases Of Uphold fever become bacilli
carriers for longer or shorter pc
riod, even while otherwise enjoying
good health.

would come into practice. A tiny,

heart, and one to the kidneys. When
these "inside nerves" fail, then the

JAPs MARCH BY THOUSANDS.
Great Torcl,light Parade-popular
Airs Of the United States.

Toxic, Oct. 22.--The capital Of
Japan witnessed tonight the most eX-
traordinary evidence of the spirit of
the new Japan. After having an au-
dience Of the officers of the American
battleship feet on Tuesday, the en-
peror issued an order directing the
people to increase in every way possi-
BILE the enjoyment and pleasure of
the American visitors who come, he
said, as historic friends Of the Japa-
nese nation. The response to this i'm
perial mandate was seen and heard
tonight.
Originally a torchlight procession
of $1,000 people was planned as a
part Of to-day's program, but this
feature went far beyond expectation
and developed into great popular
demonstration. Japan's war celebra-
tion after peace with Russia, Lon
don's Mafeking Night" and even
New York's election night revel
would seem almost insignificant COM
pared with Tokio's celebration to-
night.
Madly Cheering People.
Mile after mile, through madly
cheering people, the great procession
wound its way. Representatives of
various guilds, schools of every class
for boys and other organizations
took part, each individual carrying q
lighted lantern held high on a long
pole with American and Japanese
flags intertwined. Admiral Sperry
and the other chief officers of the
American fleet viewed the procession
from a special grandstand, standing
with barred heads above the sea Of
waving lanterns, the deafening roar
of cheers and the clash of the music
from scores Of bands, which played
the American national hymn continu-
ously. So dense became the crowds
around the stand that the entire pro-
cession was blocked until Admiral
Sperry was forced to leave In order
to keep an engagement at the dinner
given by Minister Of Foreign Affairs
Komura.
Again at the American embassy
the great procession halted and the
climax Of the enthusiasm was reach
ed. When the head Of the procession
arrived at the embassy and halted,
Mrs. O'Brien and the other ladies of
the embassy appeared upon the We
randa and received a prolonged ova-
ton from the crowd, every man and
boy among the paraders lifting his
hat to the ladies. while there were
continuous shouts for the American
ambassador, VINO had also left to at
tend the dinner.
Yankee Airs Heard.
The entire grounds surrounding
the embassy were lighted with q sea
of lanterns and the demonstration
lasted for two hours. Every band in
Toxic turned out for the parade, and
their favorite airs were yankee Doo-
die" Dixie" and John Brown"
Thousands Of the paraders wore
costumes characteristic of Japanese
celebrations.
Eevery foreigner in Toxic was
deeply impressed by to-night's re-
markable demonst ration, coming as
it did, from an ordinarily undemon-
strative people. The entire day was
taken up by a series Of elaborate en-
tertainments to Admiral Sperry and
the Otehr admirals of the American
fleet and their aides.
