NEW YORK, September 23.-Great
Brooklyn navy yard regarding series
of gyroscope tests which has been going
on on board the destroyer WOfden
here for several months. 1t is said that
naval officials hope by the use of the
contrivances to solve the problem OF
preventing the rolling of war vessel
while under way or in heavy sea
The success of the experiment. it is as
serted. would mean a considerable in
crease in the speed and usefulness OF
the smaller naval craft under battle
conditions.
The horoscopes, two in number, are
placed on the main deck forward, one
on the port side and the other on the
starboard They are about four feet in
diameter.
Superior to Passive" Type.
The type is the invention of a naval
officer. and is said to be far more ac
tive-and, therefore, superior in effect
than the so-called passive" horoscopes
used with great success by the Ger
mans.

NO CHANGE IN ATTITUDE
State Department Not Inf|u-
enced by Appeal of the
China Society.

The State Department is not likely to
change it's attitude toward the new Chi
Resa republic as a result Of the behest of
the China Society of America in an open
letter to President Taft asking for the
formal recognition of that government
The officials feel that the appeal is found
ed upon clear misconception of the
conditions existing in China. According
to their Information there is nothing
more than a provisional government now
in that country. and that government has
not asked for formal recognition.
The United States has been in COM
munication on this subject with all the
great powers in pursuit of it's determine
ton to insure the existence OF the new
republic as an independent government
by the surest of all means. namely, the
solemn pledge and corporation of these
interested powers.

CONSTANTINOPLE. Oct. lS.-lby
wireless telegraph to Kustendje.) -
The conclusion Of peace between Italy
and Turkey was fully ANTICIPATED by
the Ottoman government, although the
news did not reach here until o'clock
this morning. and still is unknown to
the public generally.
In the meantime the ministry or ma
rines taking active steps to prepare
the Turkish fleet to take part in the
campaign against the Balkan states.
Three battleships and two cruisers
which had been bottled up by Italion
sauadrons have not been stationed at
the mouth of the Black sea in order
10 escort an army of invasion to the
Bulgarian coast.
This movement of the Turkish forces
will compel the Bulgarian military COM
nanders to divert part of their army
from the main attack on Turkey.
Notwithstanding the elaborate pre-
cautions taken by the Turkish troops,
Bulgarian bands have succeeded in de-
stroying some important bridges near
Istip and Kotsohana, so that commu-
nication with Saturai is completely in
terrupted. News from the Montene-
grin frontier is meager.
The Ottoman government has solved
the problem of the employment or
Christian soldiers in the Turkish army
BY using them as garrisons in Asia
Minor.

G. WOODWARD
is CHOSEN MAYOR

James G. Woodward was elected mayor
of Atlanta in the turnover primary
Tuesday by majority of 77O votes.
He carried the First, Second, Third,
Fifth, Sixth and Tenth wards, and his
total vote was 5.367.
Aldine Chambers carried the Fourth,
Seventh, Eighth and Ninth wards, and
his total vote was 4,597.
Each candidate carried the same wards
that he carried in the first primary, on
Oct 2
In that primary there were four can
didates-Mr. Woodward, Mr.. Chambers,
DR.. George Brown and Steve r. john
ston. Mr.. Woodward led the ticket, but
did not get a majority of all the votes
cast Under the primary rules of the
city executive committee. it is necessary
for mayoralty candidate to get a ma
jority to win nomination, and should
no candidate get a majority the two
leading candidates must run a second
race. This rule necessitated a turnover
between Mr.. Woodward and Mr.. Cham
bers.
TOTAL VOTE 1884.
The total vote in the turnover primary
was 1864, as against a total in the first
primary of 9,404, or a gain of 4S9 votes
in the turnover
This gain was great deal smaller
than the Chambers campaign committee
figured on. At the meeting of business
men when it was decided to keep Mr..
Chambers in the race they all realized
that in order to defeat Mr.. Woodward
they would have to get out a far bigger
vote than was polled in the first pri-
mary. The efforts of the Chambers cam
paign committee were directed mainly
to that end in all the wards, and the
committee hoped the vote would go to
1000 All day Tuesday a force of
more than twenty girls in the Cham
bers campaign headquarters were busy
telephoning the voters to go to the
polls and vote.
Mr.. Woodward's victory has a double
significance. First, the main plank in
Mis- platform was that he would correct
what he termed the waste and incom-
petence" of the city government. Sec
ond, he was opposed by the evangelical
ministers of the city and by the execu-
tive committee Of the Men and Religion
Forward Movement. They made Chief
Beavers action, in closing the houses
in our midst" the main issue of the
campaign, and Mr.. Woodward declared
himself in favor of a segregated dis
trict.

SOUTH CAROLINA VOTES
FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL
Second Election to Decide Pee
pIeS-Lyon Fight Was
Held Tuesday.
Especial Dispatch to The Journal.)

Especial Dispatch to The JournaL)
COLUMBIA, S. c., Oct. 15.-South
Carolina voters today cast their bal
lots to decide whether j. Fraser Lyon,
the incumbent, or Thomas II. Peoples
should be the Democratic nominee for
attorney general. My Lyon led all
three of his opponents in the first pri-
mary. his lead over Mr.. Peoples being
nearly 10000 votes. but falling short
of the required majority and necessitat-
ing a second primary.
The polls all over the state opened
this morning at s o'clock and close at A.
except in the city of Charleston, where
they remained open until p. m. No
unusual interest was manifested in
the race and as a result the vote was
light as compared with the first pri-
mary, when 100000 were polled. Re-
ports received here this morning stated
that in many of the rural districts no
boxes were taken out, so slight was the
interest in the race. This is accounted
for largely by the fact that the farm
ers are too busy gathering their crops
to go to the polls.
Governor Blease, on the eve of the
election, came out in public speech and
advocated the election of Peoples. he
is a bitter political enemy of Lyon. Mr..
Lyon is seeking his fourth term in the
office of attorney general He first came
into prominence by his fight on the old
state dispensary, and 1t was largely
his work on the investigating commit
tee that uncovered the fraud and cor
ruption which resulted in the over
throw of that institution. He was
first elected attorney general in 1905,
reelected in 1908 and 1910 and is seek
ing his fourth term today. His fight
against the dispensary grafters is well
known.
Early reports of the result of the
election favored Peoples in Richland
county, II out Of 80 boxes giving Pee
ples 1.175 and Lyon 1888.
