CAMPAIGN WAS UNIQUE.
Gov. Wilson Has Made Tour Of New
Jersey.

TRENTON. N. J.. November Next
Tuesday will be election day In New
Jersey. and the contests, except In the
first congressional district, where there
is a vacancy caused by the death of
H. c. Loudenslager. will be confined
to the election OF members of the
legislature and county and city officers.
The campaign has been unique for
an "off year, in that Gov. Woodrow
Wilson of New Jersey has made a tour
Of the state and advocated the cleo
ton Of democratic legislative candi-
dates. This the governor had done in
every county, except Essex, where the
forces led by former United States
Senator Smith and former State Chair
man James r. Nugent won out in the
primaries and nominated a legislative
ticket unfriendly to the governor.
The republicans express confidence
that they will capture the lower house
Of the legislature. which last session
was democratic, and they are also
hopeful of retaining control Of the
senate. although they have fewer
hold lover senators than the democrats.
The democrats are hopeful OF captur-
ing the senate and Of retaining con-
troll of the house.
In Atlantic City there has been q
bitter campaign for mayor between
the republicans on one side and the
democrats on the other. aided by the
reform element.

Court Bars Evidence
From Federal Grand Jury

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind. November A.
Judge Joseph Markey Of the county
criminal court this afternoon granted to
the International Association Of Bridge
and Structural Iron Workers an appeal
to the Indiana supreme court from his
order giving temporary possession Of the
evidence In the Mcnamara dynamiting
case to the federal grand jury.
Pending decision by the supreme
court, Judge Marley announced. the
evidence. which consists in part Of ac-
count books Of the Ironworkers'
Union, will be guarded by deputy sher-
ifs. United States District Attorney
Charles w. Miller protested that the
evidence was needed in the federal
grand jury's inquiry. opening next
week. and declared he was pre-
pared to argue that an appeal
could not lie in this case. but
Judge Marley answered that he
already had signed the bill of exceptions
presented by counsel for the Iron Work
ers' Union and John j. Mcnamara.
Mr.. Miller pointed out that If a SUBJ
poena were issued calling the sheriff of
the county before the federal grand Jury,
with the evidence, and he obeyed, he
would be in contempt of Judge Markey's
court. and If he did not obey the gov
eminent might have recourse. He did
not announce what action he would take.

RICHMOND. Va. November 4.-''The
next general assembly will provide for

Of the people, and this time the PROPOSE
ton will go through and without very
much opposition. 1t may have to be a
caucus movement, but once the PROPOSE
ton is presented to the legislature there
will be such a demand behind 1t that it's
enactment is a foregone conclusion
1t Is wholly within the province of the
general assembly to provide for the pop
ular selection of these officers, there be-
ing clause Of the constitution which
permitted this after a certain length of
time. and that time has expired. The
first member to be chosen will be a sue
cessor to Judge William F. Rhea, who
was first named by Gov. Swanson for a
full term of six years. The term Of Com
missioner Wingfield will expire next Feb
ruary, and 1t is understood that. Gov
Mann will name him as his own success
sor. Mr. Wingfield was named to fill
the unexpired term of Col. Joseph E.
Willard Of Fairfax.
There has been a demand for some
years on the part Of the residents ofSthe
rural sections to select these officers for
themselves, holding that as the country
people are the ones who have to make
many Of the complaints against the rail-
roads that they should have a voice in
naming the men who are to hear and de-
termine the controversies which arise on
the question of rates and general freight
service

CONCERN FOR LOANS.
State Department Officials Uncertain
What Chinese Rebels Will Do.

State Department officials are deeply
concerned at the possible effect OF 1.-The
adoption of the new Chinese constitution
upon the arrangements already made be-
tween the international syndicates and
the Chinese government for railroad and
currency loans 1t was said yesterday
that the cabled abstract Of article Il Of
the constitution. which appeared to re-
move from the throne all power to en-
gage in such transactions. was not suffi-
cient In detail to indicate clearly whether
or not the inhibition would apply to ar
rangements already made. or whether its
application was limited to future loans
While officials decline to express any
opinion in the matter at present, 1t Is
probable that they will take the ground
that the arrangements for the loans al
ready consummated must be regarded as
beyond recall 1t is suggested that once
the revoluttonists are In complete pos
session OF the government and the rail-
ways they might take a different view
Of the necessity for the loans.

NATIONS COULD NOT ACT.
Powerless to Interfere to Prevent
italian Barbarities.

While no protest has reached the State
Departmnt from the Ottoman govern
ment against the alleged Italian bar
barities in Tripoli. In violation OF The
Hague convention. it is believed that
nothing can be done at this stage Jy
neutral governments. The Turkish pro-
test would, Of course. be ex parte, and
no nation would feel justified In making
representations to Italy on the subject
until 1t has made an investigation of
the facts. The Hague convention makes
no provision for such an investigation
and APP arently carries no power for its
own execution.
The Turkish government is believed
to have taken seriously the report that
the Italians, with a view to Fastening
the termination OF the war, have de-
termined to withdraw the fleet from
Africa and make a demonstration off
the coast of Syria, according to report
to the State Department yesterday from
the American embassy at Constantinople.
The report said that the Ottoman en-
pire had served notice upon the mari
time powers that the ports of Saloniki
and Smyrna have been fortified by
means of contact mines. All neutral
vessels using these ports will be guided
both on entering and leaving, by pilot
boats supplied by Turkey. :
