Jews for Taft.
Regarding the situation among the
foreign born voters in New York,
it was explained that they are a good
deal mixed up. The Jews at this time
have trend toward Taft, but not
toward Hughes, the Irish voters have
a strong trend toward Taft, while the
Germans have a trend toward Bryan
and also toward Chanler.
Notwithstanding reports from New
York that the president is dissatis-
fed with Frank H. Hitchcock's man
agement of the campaign, it can be
said that the president is standing
by Mr.. Hitchcock. He realizes that
Mr.. Hitchcock has had a very difficult
task, and that he has been criticised
by elements in the party that have
sought to run him. Every time Mr..
Hitchcock is criticised by tilis opposi-
ton the president says that Mr..
Hitchcock has done very we'll and
that he believes in him.

New York, Oct. 16.-Any person

This is shown by the number of large
New York theatres, formerly devoted
to vaudeville, bnrlesque and melo-

into moving picture houses, with the
general admission at dime throw.
The Fourteenth Street Theatre is the
latest addition to the ranks of the
''canvassbacks" and signs are not
lacking that otaer theatres will soon
follow suit. Already, there are near
ly dozen big and expensive houses,
representing a large investment, de-
voted to this form of amusement, in
addition to the hundreds of near
theatres, with gaudy fronts, which
cater to the ffyeCent patrons. The
existence of all these places has had
a decidedly bad effect upon tle box
