nation,

Trenton, n. j., Nov. 1o.-The Demo
cratic committee of New Jersey met
here yesterday and endorsed Governor
Woodrow Wilson for the Democratic
nomination for president of the United
Estates. The committee decided to open
and maintain permanent headquarters in
this city to further Governor Wilson's
nomination.
A sub committee was appointed to pre-
pare q statement to the public analyz-
ing the result OF last Tuesdays election.
The members of the state committee
profess to believe that the election was
victory for Governor Wilson and his
policies despite the fact that the Repub-
leans retained control of the Senate
and captured the assembly from the
Democrats.

supply was exhausted. 1t gives me great
pleasure to say that this sale was a
tremendous success. The supply was ex-
hausted within three hours and orders
were taken in advance for two more ear
loads. There are about GOO bushels in
a ear.
The mayor realizes that we must have
middlemen and he has no quarrel with
them. What he is trying to do is to
break down the combine. So far as In
dianapolis is concerned, that places the
price Of food products almost beyond the
means Of the man with a small sal
airy. His attention was first called to
the matter when he learned that po-
tatoes Of excellent quality could be
bought within 200 miles OF indianapolis
for from 90 to 20 cents a bushel, and
at the time people here were paying
about 81. The freight rate is small,
and he made up his mind that there was

According to dispatches from Tripoli,

comment of the difficulty of the task

noticeable decrease of the stories of
"massacres" in Tripoli now that the va
grant correspondents have sold their
"thrillers." As the real correspondents
begin to be heard from there are no
longer statements of mosques filled with
the dead and terribly mutilated bodies
of Moslem women and children. The
whole thing SINNERS down to harsh
repression of Arab treachery.

TURKEY WAS misunderstood.
Did Not Ask United States to Stop
War.

Washington, Nov. INSTRUMENTATION
of the appeal made by Turkey TO the
American government for intervention
at Tripoli resulted in the issuing of a
statement Wednesday by Youssout Zia
Paeha, the Turkish ambassador, declar-
ing that Turkey had no wish that the
United States should act as a mediator
to end the Turco-Italian war.
"The call which the embassy made
on the Washington government Nov. 4
had for its object 10 request the state
department to intervene in order to bring
about cessation of the atrocities COM
n1itted by the enemy against women,
children and the defenseless population
of Tripoli,p said the ambassador. "This
appeal did not imply in any form what
ever, request for mediation, as has
been reported in some quarters"
Further official denials from the Ital-
ian government of the rumored atrocities
by Italian troops at Tripolf were given
out through the Italian embassy. Three
cablegrams from the Italian minister
of foreign affairs were made public.
The first said: 81 beg your excel
Iency to deny in the most absolute and
emphatic form the alleged Italian cruel
ties. The Arabs are the ones who are
guilty OF atrocities against our soldiers"
Another dispatch denies that General
Caneva authorized the troops to shoot all
Arabs suspected Of having borne arms
against the Italians. 1t is stated that
many of these Arabs were deported
Apparently the state department has
decided to take no action upon the pro-
test of the Turkish government, con-
tenting itself with a bare acknowledge
ment Of the receipt Of the protest, the
meanwhile closely watching develop
ments. The department officials still are
firm in their conviction that the issue
between Turkey and Italy is one that
concerns European powers alone.

ITALIAN ADVANCE IN SPRING.
Forward Movement just Begun Is Sim

Tripoli, Nov. l0.--General Caneva ex-
planned Wednesday that the forward
movement, which has just commenced,
is simply a police measure to clear the
outskirts of the city and strengthen the
positions of the Italians. He will con-
fine the advance, he said, TO the limits
of the oasis of cara, which is the rally
ing point and supply center of the Turks

Caneya added, he would prepare an ex-
petition for the interior, which would

ELIZABETH. May 29.-Fire last
evening in the plant of the Barrett
Manufacturing Company, Elizabeth
port, kept the entire department busy
until 9:15 o'clock and resulted in a
general alarm.
Prompt work of the fremen and of
tugboats kept the flames confined to
the saturating department, where the
paper is tarred. The intense heat
from the tar and pitch made it diff
cult for the firemen to reach the heart
of the flames. Forty or fifty barrels
of pitch were destroyed. but the dam
age to the rest of the plant was
caused mostly by water. The build
ing is insured. It was formerly owned
