the success of the state republican ticket.
Newspaper polls in towns that have vot-
ed dry show that in many cases Harmon
will lead Harris for the governorship. es-
pecially in the cities of the state. Harris
is expected to get his vote from the farm
ers. 1t must come from that source II he
is elected.
1t is conceded that Hamilton and Cuya-
hoga counties will give Harmon large
majority. Most of the other larger cities
of the state are expected to lean toward
the democratic column.
But the strong point with Gov. Harris
is his record as an old soldier, his life as
a farmer and his stand on the temperance
question. With these three elements in
his favor it is expected that in the rural
districts he will be strong enough to over
come the opposition from the cities and be
able to land for another three years in
the governors chair with a good-SiZed
plurality.
The situation in Ohio today is chaotic.
Neither party will make any claim for
publication. AT the same time they ex-
press that feeling of confidence that will
not wash off," But when you ask for
figures they sit back and look wise.
From straw votes that are being taken,
from the political trend during the past
week or ten days. 1t can safely be said
that Ohio republicans are falling back
into line.
When the polls are closed November 3
and the votes are counted you Will see
the Buckeye state stick by her candidate
for President just as she did when Grant.
Garfield. Harrison, Mckinley and Hayes
rolled up good republican majority. IN
less she does the same this year there will
have to be an aWfully large change OF
sentiment.

new WARRANT FOR POUREn
RUSSIA REVIEWS EFFORT TO
GET ALLEGED MURDERER.

NEW YORK. October 24.-The inten-
ton of the Russian government to ex-
haust every resource in the effort to ex-
tradite Jan ]. Pouren for trial on charges
of murder. arson and robbery was shown
today when counsel for the Russian gov
eminent obtained new warrant for
Pouren's arrest Yesterday Secretary of
State Root refused to grant the extradi-
ton of Pouren, and today counsel for
Russia obtained from Judge Holt OF the
federal court new warrant charging
Pouren with arson, burglary and attempt
to commit murder In the district of Riga,
Russia. The warrant will be served
should the commissioner receive orders
from Secretary Root to release Pouren.
Commissioner Shields adjourned the
hearing today until Monday. by which
time he expects to get official word from
Secretary Root as to what form the pro-
ceedings should take in view of Mr..
Roots refusal to grant the extradition
of Pouren.
Moses Oppenheimer of the Pouren de-
Tense conference said today that the new
turn of affairs in the case will find the
conference both ready and able to more
vigorously support the principles for
which it has been fighting.
1T will" he said, "be a fight not only
for Pouren, but for the right of political
asylum in this country"

eminent to answer charges of murder

Gaping and fleeing to America. In his
behalf 1t is commended that the band in
question was a revolutionary band. and
that Pouren is in reality wanted for his
participation in a revolutionary move
ment.
Herbert Parsons counsel for Pouren,
presented evidence to show Pouren's con-
nection with the revolutionary movement
in his province. Anurew Lasdinch OF
Bristol, N. H., testified that he came
from the same part of Russia as Pouren,
and was himself a member of the revo-
lutionistS' organization. Pouren, he said,
was member of the Brothers of the
Woods" as the revolutionary militia was
known, one of Pouren's duties being to
collect money for the organization. The
witness named a number Of Russian spies
against whom a number of the local COM
mittee at Orlask had passed orders that
they should be driven out of town. Z

tered by quarantine officers not only
abroad. but at home as well. in the en-
forcement of regulations which were
known to be absolutely necessary to
prevent the spread Of infectious dis
eases. Special mention was made Of the
0uoOnic plague, rat disease. which
had been nearly stamped out, but would
require al least two years more of eff
fort to eradicate 1t entirely. Incident
ally, he remarked that San Francisco
is pretty good sanitary city today. as
the result Of the public health and
marine hospital services efforts.
DR.. Wyman told of the development
of the disease in ground squirrels and
in the west; to the sanitary reports re-
ceived and published by his branch of
the service. and with some detail as to
the hygienic laboratory, where stand
ards are established under law for
serum for the treatment Of rabies. diph
iberia, smallpox and the like. One of
the best laws on the statute books is
that which provides for the eXamina-
ton of serum and vaccine.
Typhoid in the District.
Ten per cent of the cases Of typhoid
fever in the District of Columbia were
declared to be due to infected milk. which
might have been SO prepared as to make
disease impossible.
DR.. Wyman also referred to the scien-
tific advisory corps connected with the
laboratory. and declared 1t an admirable
organization for good. There are 400
commissioned officers and others in the
public health and marine hospital serv-
ice," he said, who are constantly being
shifted to points where they will do the
most good and ultimately become avail
able for any station" He praised their
esprit du corps, which led some to even
tempt death in the interest of science.
Twelve have contracted yellow fever
said DR.. Wyman. land died; tubercu-
losis, and died; tropical dysentery.
and nearly all died, together with 3
who contracted smallpox" There was 81
in all, he said, who had suffered for the
cause.
At the conclusion of his lecture-or,
rather, 1t was an informal talk-Dr. Wy
man was heartily applauded.

NUMBERS FOR ALL
AUTOMOBILE LICENSES

This ruling will disappoint hundreds

a low number, one of the first issued,
or who have become used to one num-
Der and wish to retain 1t. There Will
be no possible way by which this can
be accomplished, unless COMMISSIONS
j. B. r. Smith rescinds his order. The
fact of the starting the numbers
with number / will do away with the IL
censes bearing very high numbers.
The officials of the Motor Vehicle De-
partment have announced that the rea-
son for the change Is that entirely too
much clerical work has been made
necessary by trying to accommodate
autoists this year and supply them
with the same license numbers they
have previously held. This plan has
meant that special orders for individ-
ual numbers not consecutive had to be
sent to the manufacturer, and that
many mistakes almost unavoidable
were made in the confusion. BY giving
this early notice to motorists the depart
ment hopes to overcome n friction
and misunderstanding, so much OF

administration of the law into smooth
running order.

MAY HAVE To
AMPUTATE FREQ
MERKLE'S FOOT
Giant Infielder's Condition Not
Any Too Reassuring-Fear
Blood Poisoning.

CINCINNATI, July 11.-Reports from
the Good Samaritan Hospital, where In
fielder Fred Merkle, of the New York
Giants, underwent two operations on
his foot for blood poisoning, are to the
effect that serious complications have
arisen. Unless they are checked 1t is
likely thai the foot will have to be am
putated. Merkle had planned to go te
Pittsburg with the Giants and from
the Smoky City go to his home in
Toledo, but the hospital physicians
stated that 1t would be some time be-
fore the ball player would be able to
leave the institution. Merkle realizes
that he Is in pretty bad shape, but is
trying to keep the public in ignorance
of his condition In order to alleviate the
fears of his family in Toledo.
The foot Is about the size of a bis
pumpkin. and even the lower leg up t
the knee Is affected The breaking q
the skin between the great toe and tn
next one is primarily responsible fol
Merkle's condition. 1t Is believed tina
dye from his hose got into the wount
| and caused blood poisoning.

Owners Can't Have Same Num-
bers Machine Had
Before.

Beginning January /. 1909, when all
automobile licenses expire, the Depart
ment of Motor Vehicles will absolutely
refuse to provide a motorist with a IL
cense of the same number as that
which his machine has borne before.
This ruling was given to A. B. lie Mas
sena, the local agent of the department,
by Chief Inspector Johnson on We'd
nesday and Is final.
When the new set of licenses and
pads are issued the registration num-
bers will be given out In the order In
which they are applied for, beginning
with number 1. In other words, the
tenth man who appears at the office
of the department will be assigned IL
cense number 10 and the corresponding
license pad or marker. h pads are
to be of the same general style as
those of the present year with the ex-
ception that instead of being printed
in white on a blue background they
will nave some other color background,
probably red.

by the Brooklyn Yacht Club committee
is and asked that the boat
be r~emeasured.
The regatta committee at once took
the case up as in duty bound, and
while considering II and about to rem
der a decision Frederic Thompson, the
owner of the Shamrock, came to the
front, brushed away all the p~erplexing
questions incident to the controversy
by telling the committee that his yacht
should be remeasured as soon as 1t was
practicable, and that by any officials
whom 1t named.
The next steps were easy. Mr..
Thompson sent for Captain Charles
Barr, who won the race with the Sham
rock, and he in turn has mustered the
same crew that was in the yacht on
the morning of July 4. They will place
the yacht in the same condition as
when the race was sailed. and she will
be remeasured or Monday afternoon
at the Marine Basin, Ulmer Park, Ben
sonhurst.
And at Mr.. Thompson's suggestion
Professor william Hallock. of Column
bia University. the measurer of the
New York Yacht Club, and John r.

VIII do the work. This arrangement
should satisfy all hands. But possibly
the most exacting person among the
number interested in the case is Mr..
Thompson, who says that he shall only
be satisfied when he receives the re-
port of the experts named to remeas-
ure the yacht.

Graw is resting much easier, as he is

commodity the Giants lacked since

Cincinnati lately and the Giants were
