TAFT IS LOOKING

Ny c. E. STEWART

Washington November 4.-tSpeciall-- Just before the election. while not con- ceding his defeat by any means. Presi- dent Taft is credited with the statement that in his opinion his add illustration will be vindicated in 1916
 The President believes that his work and his acts while in the White House will stand the test of time. and that the American people. after four years of sober reflection. will turn to him and the republican party by the time the next presidential election rolls round

 No Means of Directing Army
 "The commander in ch,ef of n great army in battle without any communica- tion, without knowledge of the movements of his forces Is the description of the plight of Abdullah Pasha on October 31 the decisive day of the fighting which Ashmead Bartlett cables to the Daily Telegraph from Constantinza.

IS A RANK
 OUTSIDER IN THE ELECTION

Washington. November 4--Temporarily k rank outsider in the field of politics, the national capitol tonight is awaiting khe election with quiet interest From the President down, practically every body with voting residence has gone home to be at the polls tomorrow. Only h few high government officials are left fn the city, and thousands of minor of 5lcials and employees were missing from kheir offices today.
 Secretary of the Interior Fisher, who has no vote this year because it was loo late to register when he returned
 bm his long trip to Hawaii, Is the only
 abinet officer here. He will be the
 ting President tomorrow.
 Real washingtonians have no votes. However. there are many who call the
 capital home and therefore are without |the right to cast vote, who are as |yitally interested in the outcome of to-
 n.orrow's contest as any one who will .so to the polls. Hundreds of them, yith
 their positions at stake. have a very
 direct personal interest
The Birmingham age-herald., 1912-11-05

Although fighting is still proceeding on the Tchorlu- Servai line and cor respondents are sending reports of Bulgarian and Turkish successes in that neighborhood, according to which side they draw inspiration from, the official announcement from Constan- tinople that the Turks are withdraw ing to the Tchatalja line of forts is not to be doubted and it is evident that this fighting is merely an extensive rear guard action to cover the move ment of the Turks toward Constanti- nople.
 Expect Fall of Adrianople
 The fall of Adrianople is expected daily. The occupation of Bulk, on the railway between Salonki and Kuleli Burgas, is the link of the chain wholly cutting off the Turkish armies which has been fighting the great battles in the east from the scattered forces in the heart of the country and to the west.
 Comparative order is maintained in Com stantinople and Saloniki. but apparently the nervousness felt in Europe over pos sjhle outbreaks is shared by the authori- ties in Turkey. In Constantinope the government is already seizing great sup plies for the army and the likelihood Of famine prices for food will add to the difficulties Anxiety has been. partly pe lieved, however. by the arrival of Eu- ropean warships. Others are on the Way.
 Ii is considered not unlikely that the fear of serious outbreaks in Constantl- pble may influence the powers to use dip- lomatio pressure to bring about peace at the earliest moment.

The Colonel Attacks Law vers Who Criticised His Madison Square Gar
 den Speech

l Oyster Bay, November 4.-senator Elihu Root, John c. Milburn, William D. Guth- rie and Louis Marshall, four of the best known lawyers in New York, were as- sailed tonight by Colonel Roosevelt as ''counsel against the people of the United Srates," who, he said were defending a perversion of the law. for which they | themselves were responsible. Colonel Roosevelts remarks were in reply to statement made today by these four men in reionder to his speech in Madison Square Garden Friday night.
 Colonel Rooseyelts speech was made in oyster Bay tonight at the closing rally of the campaign.
 q want to relieve some nervous people who don't live in Oyster Bay of the be- lief that l will not vote tomorrow" he said, by way of preface. '1 see that some of the not always accurate papers of New York announce that I am not registered and won't vote. I am registered and I shall vote.
 Criticises Lawyers
 Now, I want to speak of certain gem tlemen on the other side Messrs. Root Milburn, Guthrie and Marshall--who an- sweted my Madison Square Garden speech this afternoon. so that, l suppose, they thought l could not make any reply to thcir answer There is always a presump- ton against any individual who waits until the afternoon before election to traverse the statement of an opponent" Colonel Roosevelt said he had been informed that these four men Fin their present position of counsel against the people of the United States attacked statements which he had made regarding decisions of the New York court of ap- peals as being contrary to the law and tte fact. He took up one by one the cuses which he had discussed and read from a number of books extracts to prove that he had stated the facts correctly.

Women Influential
 The influence of women in the cam- |paign probably will be greater than lin any previous election Each na- |tional headquarters has had an or |yanized bureau to appeal to women workers, presided over by women well known in public and social life. In the |six western states where women will |vote, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, Cal ifornia, Idaho and Washington, their ballots will be an important factor in hhe results. Tn five other states, Ari- |zona, Michigan, Kansas, Oregon and Wisconsin, the right of women to vote Twill be an issue at the polls.
 Fair weather is predicted for the majority of states. The uncertainty caused by the third party ticket, the more than ordinary urgent appeal of party managers to all voters to Ego | to the polls," and the local interest caused by fights for state officers and control of state machinery, indicated a record vote in almost all sections of the country, and popular presidential vote of large proportions.
