New York, Nov. 6.-The election of
Governor Wilson to the presidency
was claimed by the party leaders at
the democratic national headquarters
within an hour after the first returns
began to come in. National Chairman
McCombs quickly informed Governor
Wilson at Princeton that there was
every indication that he would be car
ried into office by a landslide.

JAIL KIDNAPER OF AMERICANS
Ramon Nunez to Serve Four Years for
Delivering Two to Army.

Ramon NunGz 10 OcTfc FOdI ' cars III
Delivering Two TO Army.
Ell Paso, Texas.-Charged with kid
naping two Americans on American
soal and delivering them to a foreign
army is the act of which Ramon Nunez
stands convicted. The jury of a dis
trict court here recommended a SEN
tence of four years. The conviction
may tend to bear out the claim for
$4,000 each of Lawrence Converse, a
Spokane boy, and Edwin Blatt against
the Mexican government for their de-
tention by Mexican federal troops in
the Junarez Jail just prior to the cap
ture of the town by Madero's revolu-
tionists last y ar. Nunez was charged
with kidnapping the young Americans
near Tornillo, Texas, and delivering
them to General Navarro.

rality estimated upon meager returns

II IS probable that Saturday the twelve
Becker Jurors will be taken on an auto

So far none Of them has preached the
subject, but il was said yesterday that
Justice GoR probably would direct that
they be taken to the boards Of registry
I'm the sightseeing automobile which has
been carrying them from their temporary

court and back again.
In case the big automobile is used for
this service Il will mean at least half a

up as far as East 2Olst street, in The
Bronx.
To save time. the plan OF sending them

considered At any rate, no Juror VIII
visit the board OF registry unless he IS
accompanied by n court attendant.
1t may seem strange that no one OF the
twelve men has asked how he was 10

as men cut off from the world since tho
Becker trial began. When court adiourns
they are loaded into the big automobile,
I'm charge Of several court attendants, and
are taken to the Murray Hill Hotel. If 1t
Is merely a recess for luncheon or dinner
they sit down at the table almost imme-
diately, with the court attendants. JUS
tice Goff allows them an hour and quar-
ter for their meals, but, deducting the
time taken to run 10 the hotel they have
only thIrty-five or forty minutes to spend
In eating when they get there.
II adjournment has been taken until
the next day they have as much time rs
they want TO eat. After dinner they are
taken to reception room, where mem
bers Of their families or office forces are
allowed to visit them. This, too, Is under

ants. They are allowed to read no news
papers Alcoholic drinks-even a cocktail
before dinner or q nightcap before going
to bed-are forbidden.
After one OF the long sessions such as
Justice Con- has been holding the jurors
are generally glad TO be off TO bed by
1880 o'clock. Even then the vigilance OF
their guards is not relaxed. Two of the
court attendants sit up with them ali
night.
So, 1t Is not so remarkable, after all,
that men to whom the newspapers are
forbidden, and whose whole time is taken
up In the trial of an important criminal
case, should forget for the moment that
II they want to vote this fall they must
register first. 1t was said yesterday that
without doubt, when the time came they
would be allowed to register. The regis
tratioH boards are in session from 7 In the
morning until 10 at night. and NJ the
jurors get up, early and are sent out in
several automobiles probably not more
than an hour would be taken from the
