THE VOICE or THE UMPIRE.
by W. @ Mcclellan.

When Caruso fills the building With
with his amber tenor note,
Many marvel that the music could
be from a human throat,
Radiant women in the boxes sit there
mute from sheer delight
While their hearts are in a futter and
the tears bedim their sight.
Yes, Caruso has them going when the
band begins to play.
But Old sherry has them going in a
very different way,
And | do not think Caruso has old
sherry skinned at all,
When the crowds are in the bleachers

BRITISH BUDGET PASSES
IN HOUSE OF COMMONS
Liberal Governments Majority
Larger Than Expected

LONDON, Nov. 4.--The house of COM
mons tonight passed the third reading
of the finance bill by vote of 379 to
149. Seldom has there been a larger
attendance and intense excitement pre-
vailed
Premier Asquith in closing the de-
bate said it was incumbent upon those
who objected TO the governments taxes
to provide some alternative scheme to
meet the nations necessities. Where
was this scheme? he asked. Sooner or
later Mr.. Balfour must show his hand
and it would have to be hand that
would suit the game of the tariff re-
formers.
The governments continued the pre-
mier, might be well content to rest in
patience. There were only two issues
before the house-taxes proposed by
the budget or tariff reform.
The vote proved the government S
majority was larger than had been ex-
pected The conservatives had counted
upon score Of liberal abstentions, but
only two liberals joined the national
lists in abstaining from voting.
The bill will be formally passed on its
first reading in the house of lords to-
morrow. the debate on the second read
ing. which will determine its fate, be-
ginning November %.

ORGANIZATION is
TO BE PERMANENT
Good Government League Sc
cures Pledges of Funds

The management of the good govern
ment league has rendered its good Of
fees to Mayor elect Mccarthy and de-
cided to preserve a permanent organ
ization. The directors of the leagne
have decided that had it not been for
their Organization the victory of the
labor union forces would have been
complete. This decision. according to a
statement issued yesterday by Isidor
Jacobs is based on the theory that
10, 900 straight votes were cast for the
good government league ticket.
The decision to maintain a perma-
nent organization was made yester-
day. 1t was reported to the executive
committee that number of citizens
had agreed to pledge fixed monthly
contributions, covering a period of two
years for the maintenance of offices,
managing secretary and office assist
ants. Here is the statement issued by
Jacobs:
The good government league exec
utive committee met today, and 1t was
decided to continue as permanent
organization number of citizens hav-
ing agreed to pledge a fixed sum per
month for the next two years for
maintenance of offices. a permanent
managing secretary, stenographer, etc.
The league announces that from re-
ports received by 1t over 10000 straight
votes were polled in the good govern
ment league column, and an analysis
of the result indicates that out of 81
candidates, IL of those elected were
on the good government league ticket.
These were, City Attorney Long, Re-
corder Godchaux, Treasurer McDougald,
Tax Collector Bush and Public Admin
istrator Hynes; and for supervisors,
Paul Bancroft, Oscar Hooks, j. Emmett
Hayden, Edward L. Cutten. Matt Harris
Sr., Charles A. Murdock and Thomas S.
Williams. Had it not been for the
good government league ticket the
union labor ticket would have made
clean sweep, excepting possibly the
city attorney and treasurer. AS 1t is,
the good government league has elected
a fair minority of the board of super
visors, being seven out of the 18.
while regretting that Doctor Leland,
Francis j. Heney, and its defeated can
didates were not elected, the league
decided to tender to the incoming ad-
ministration its support in all under
takings that may be for the better
ment of the city.

REGISTRAR SEEKS
CHARTER CHANGE
Would Elect Only Nine Super
visors Biennially to Shorten
Cumbersome Ballot

That the municipal ticket should be
materially reduced in size is the opin-
ion of Registrar ]. H. Zemansky. The
ballots used Tuesday contained 1877
names besides the blank column and the
ordinance proposition. True. some of
these names were repeated on the bal
lot where a man had the nomination of
more than one party, but the fact that
some of the names apeared more than
once did not make the ballot less cum
bersome.
Something should be done by the
Legislature in the way of a charter
amendment to shorten the ticket" said
Zemansky yesterday. This could be
accomplished by electing nine super
visors every two years instead of the
full Is.
SIX TICKETS ON BALLOT
This year there were six tickets on
the ballot in addition to the blank coll
umn. BY voting for only nine super
visors it would be possible to cut down
the size of the ballot by 63 spaces, or
one third it's size.
BY eIecting only half the number of
supervisors every two years there
would always be a working force in the
board when the new men took office.
This would be good thing, as the new
members would have the benefit of the
information possessed by the holdover
members in reference to work under
way"
ADVOCATES MACHINES
Zemansky pointed out also that con-
ditions could be improved by using ma
chimes. With them ii would not make
any material difference how long the
ballots were. 1t would be possible to
IL
from the closing of the polls. AS 1t was
in this election it was 90 hours after
the polls were closed before the last
precinct report was received After
that some little time was required to
correct the recapitulations.
It was also pointed out by the regis
trar that the expense would be much
less in the registrars Office, it being
estimated that less than half of the
force now required would be needed to
cast up the totals from the precinct re-
ports.

Hourihan Out; Rumors Rife

Assistant Bond and Warrant Clerk
Eugene P. Hourihan was yesterday
succeeded In Office by Attorney John H.
Riordan of Francis J. Heney's office,
the latter being appointed by District
Attorney Langdon to fill the vacancy in
his staff. This vacancy resulted from
the severance of Hourihan's connection
with the department. but the exact cause
of this severance is a matter of some
doubt.
Hourihan declared yesterday that he
had resigned, and would leave at once
for New York to undergo an operation
upon his throat At the same time
an announcement was made of the ap-
pointment of his successor. This was
not all, however, for rumor was at once
busy with a story to the effect that
Hourihan had resigned in anger be-
cause he was not allowed to participate
as a speaker al any of the Heney meet
ings during the recent campaign.
On the other hand it was positively
asserted yesterday by certain members
of District Attorney Langdons office
force that Hourihan had not resigned
the intimation plainly being that he
had been discharged. With this was
coupled a hint that the trouble was
the outgrowth of the recent campaign
and that action had been taken against
Hourihan because of his espousal of the
candidacy of Charles NJ Fickert

WILLIAMS BEATEN
FOR SUPERVISOR
O'Dowd of Union Labor Party
Is Found to Be Among
Eighteen Elected

Two changes in the list of elected
officials were made yesterday when
Registrar ]. II. Zemansky's deputies
checked their figures of the day before
The new totals returned Charles L.
Conlan. democratic incumbent, winner
over John J. sullivan. union labor party
nominee, for the second police Judge
ship. and Thomas p. ODowd. union la
Dor party nominee. a victor over
Thomas S. Williams, a republican nomi-
nee, for a place on the board of super
visors. These changes increased the
number of union labor party super
visors to II, but left the total number
of union labor party officials the same,
as O'Dowd displaced Williams.
When the votes were being canvassed
Wednesday afternoon O'Dowd was in
formed that he had been elected. He
left the registrars office highly elated.
Soon afterward the deputies announced
the list of supervisors elected and
O'Dowd's name was not given.
When an attempt was made yester-
day to verify Wednesdays totals with
an adding machine it was discovered
that O'Dowd. instead of being nine
teenth in the race, was among the
elected. while Williams was forced to
PAYOT is NINETEENTH
The new totals cut Williams vote
from 2l 5O2 to 2O,6O2. O'Dowd moved up
from 81 .421 to 81. 433. Henry Payot, an
incumbent democrat. became the nine
teenth man with a vote of 21,113, which
remained unchanged in the checking.
Williams position is now below Fred
L. Hilmer. J. p. Booth and F. l.. Matthes.
His position is just ahead of Thomas
Jennings.
The fght for second police Judge de-
veloped into one of the most exciting
in the history of municipal campaigns.
An error of 1000 in favor of Sullivan In
the hurried totals given out Wednesday
showed Sullivan ahead of Conlan with
vote of 22.213 to 20,230. When the
mistake of 5000 was discovered Conlan
jumped into the lead with. II votes to
the good ". r. Hagerty of the union
labor party made an independent check
of the returns, however, and succeeded
in cutting Conlan's lead down to four
votes.
WILL CANVASS MONDAY
The board of election commissioners
will meet Monday morning at 10 o'clock
for the purpose of canvassing the re-
suits. Of the election in order that the
official result may be declared. The
law requires that the board must con-
tinue in session at least six hours a
day until the votes are all checked.
With the vote SO close between Con-
Ian and Sullivan there is much likeI
hood of a contest unless the election
commission discovers more material err
rors in the figures at hand. There is
also a possibility of a contest for places
on the board of supervisors. Whether
or not there will be any contests is not
known yet, as the interested parties
prefer to await the declaration of the
official returns of the commission be-
fore starting a contest
No material changes were discovered
in the totals for the other onces. Finn
gained little stronger lead over Dolan
and Eggers for sheriff.
