TUESDAYS ELECTION.
General Democratic Landslide All Over
The Country Except III Fulton
County.

BY reference to the table pub
hshed elsewhere, a result of the
vote in the county will be seen,
and 1t will be noted that Tener
the Repu blican candidate, for gov
ernor, carried the county by a
. plurality of rs votes over Grim.
For the Legislature, Clarence E.
Akers, Repu bllcan, of Brush
Creek, defeated his opponent, ex.
County superintendent Glen
gChestnut, by majority of 81.
In the State, John K. Tener,
the Repu bllcan candidate for gov
ernor, was elected by plurality
of less than 10000, over his clos
est competitor, W. H. Berry.
The Democrats won all over the
United States where fight, of
any consequence was on and they
will surely dominate the next
Congress.
Democratic governors were
elected In New York, Ohio, New
Jersey, Connecticut, Massachu-
setts, and many other Ststes for
merly strongholds of the republl
can party.
This Is accounted for to great
extent by the general un.
rest of the people during the past
year, and to the unprecedently
high cost of living.
Such laudslides have occurred
before IN the history of the coun-
try, and like electric storms,

MORTGAGE DEMAND REvlvES
ASSOCIATED Press)

NEW YORK, Sept. 14,-The stock
market today had to bear the burden
of profit-taking on the rise of yester-
day, and was affected accordingly
Some considerable movement after the
prolonged period of apathy and list
lessness was not to be neglected by the
long suffering professional operators.
Politics continued to occupy a large
share of attention, but there was dis
position among some of the larger fin
ancial houses to defeat the exploitation
of the stock market as field for the
expression of opinions on political pros
poets.
The subsidence of anxiety over the
banking position of the country pro-
vided a substantial substratum for the
confidence that is growing up. This
was manifest in the reception accorded
the news of the rejection by the Lon
don conference of foreign bankers OF
the validation plan for American cot
ton shipments. The resources of the
domestic money market seem now so
assured that the extra requirement thus
implied causes no anxiety. Money con-
tinues to work easier both in New
York and inland. Chicago reports

bitrary destruction of certain exclusive
privileges by the government of former
President Castro. This claim in it's
early history was submitted to a mixed
tribunal for arbitration, according to
an agreement between the two govern
ments. This tribunal awarded the COM
pany about $4,000 damages. This de-
cision the American secretary of state
declared abounded in errors of law
and fact and after prolonged negotia-
tions the whole question involved was
submitted to The Hague tribunal.

CHICAGO Sept. n.-Heavy market, extreme
bearish popular sentiment, and much liquida-
tion by scattered longs were the prominent
features In wheat today. 1t is claimed that a
large local speculator has bought large guam
tty of wheat today, getting It from scattered
as we'll as from larger and more influential
sources Much of the weakness today came
from abroad. There was acute weakness in
Russian wheat in Europe-low grade mill
wheat offered at very low prices. Winnipeg
oasn wheat showed much weakness on account
of competition abroad and No / northern now
only 1c over October, against SIC over last
week. Duluth reported the loading Of 100, AGO
bushels spring wheat there for Chicago mills
and distributors. Spring wheat prices con-
tinue at big premiums over winter Reported
that cargo of red winter wheat sold here
late yesterday for New York Cash people
here do not verify IT.
Corn developed further weakness on fine
weather for rapid bringing of crop toward the
safety line. There was considerable liquidation
by scattered longs who did not wish to carry
grain over tornorrows holiday and much spec
ulative pressure besides Market proved weak
affair Country sales have dropped off con-
siderabiy and smaller receipts ara expected.
Cash corn is being offered at very low prices
east. Without bad weather. tendency still
seems lower.
Oats were very weak early, but later de-
veoped very surprising frmness. Early selling
was Of an influential and liberal sort and very
largely speculative. 1t was followed, however,
by much selling by smaller traders who helped
values much in their attempts to cover. Re-
ceipts from the interior dropping off materially.
while shipping trade is steady.
Provisions weakened on further decline in
hog prices. There was much selling of long
stuff by commission houses; some support at
the decline by packers and a few shorts.
