10 size up the situation or forecast with
any degree Of confidence the result OF the
election now only ten days Off
There is not the least doubt that the
Republican party is badly divided. Tn

would go Overwhelmingly Democratic.
But the circumstances are extraordinary
al around.
The Democrats. with their usual lack
of judgment aud rroverblai short-slghted-

and the wantcn attack upon him is Bit

Beveridge's speeches are largely nom

SUFFRAGE OPINION
STIRS DEMOCRATS
Maryland Reused by Deci-
sion on Grandfather Law.

Special to Tie Washington Herald
Baltimore, Md. Oct 29.-Serious and
faT-reaching is the dilemma faced by The
Democrats because OF the decision OF
Judge Morris. Of the Federal Circuit
Court, that the grandfather clause in the
Annapolis election law is unconstitu-
tional.

ing. however, that in the opinion OF

carries property qualification, the facf
remains that il is aimed at the negro.

Newark. \. j.. Oct. 29.-Wojciech Ko-

allowed TO change his name TO Wojciech

the application why The change should

and that the name subjected him to ridi-
eule as, interpreted, it meant "buching

Management of Horse Show
Enthusiastic Over Outlook.
MILITARY TEAMS ENTERED
Over Fifteen Hundred Entries
Seem Assured-Many from
New Competitors.

The management Of this years horse
show at Madison Square Garden expects
that every seat will be occupied and the
promenade around the tanbark packed dur
ing show week. November u TO 1s.
I believe We viii have to close the doors
and turn people away" said James T
Hyde yesterday in the offices OF the Ma
uonaI Horse Show Association. No 16 East
23d street as he laid down a cable mes
sage he had Just received from France.
The French cavalry officers are coming
over. after all AT least. this cable mes
sage leads me TO suppose they are. They
are coming 10 ride against England. Hol-
land, Canada and the United States in the
international jumping contests, and I be-
ieve the Garden will not be able 10 hold
the crowd I expect We viii have 10 shut
out thousands Of persons; do indeed.
Here is another cable message he con-
unued. saying Queen Wilhelmina Of HoI-
land is sending four Of her cavalry rid
ers, instead of three as was announced a
week ago. Four officers and eleven horses
are entered by Holland for the interna-
tionaI jumping events. and venture to say
no such international competitions have
been witnessed in America before as those
that will take place At the Garden next
month"
French dragons and lancers. British
hussarS and royal horse artillery, Dutch
Uhlans and chasseurs, United States cav
airy from Fort Riley and staff officers from
Canada-foUr officers in each of these five
International teams and half a hundred
hOrses-wiu be the contestants for the
trophies and honOrs coveted by the armies
they viii have the honor to represent here
Generals. regtmental commanders. staff
officers and military attaches will be pres
ent TO witness the competitions for interna-
tional honors, il is said. Each officer must
ride in the uniform Of his regiment. and
as some Of the foreign cavalry uniforms
are particularly bright and attractive the
scene when all are in the arena beneath
the brilliant lights should be vivid and
picturesque
A high board fence a stone wall and a
''pigpen"-a double row of posts and rails
set up thirty feet apart-are the obstacles
decided upon by the executive committee
for one of these International military con-
tests. Then there viii be the water jump
ing. which Is a separate event and for
another set Of prizes. In yet another com
petition the soldiers will have TO ride in
pairs galloping and jumping two abreast.
More entries have been received than at
this time last year, and the management
predicts that all records viii be broken
again, which means that last years re-
markable entry list Of fifteen hundred VIII
be surpassed.
A good many new exhibitors are report
Cd for the coming show, which is re-
garded as q healthy sign OF the breeding
Another feature particularly pleasing TO
the management OF the show IS that ex-
hibitors of former years who had dropped
out of late are coming back again.
