British Scientists,

LONDON, September 4.-One Of the
greatest gatherings ever held of the
worlds wise men will take place today at
Dundee when the British Association for
the Advancement Of Science begins its
annual session, forty-five years after the
last meeting in that city.
Prof E. A Schafer. the famous physi-
ologist of Edinburgh University. will
succeed Sir William Ramsey as president,
and it is his opening address that scient-
lists everywhere are eagerly waiting for.
He will advance such theories regarding
the possibility Of manufacturing life by
artificial means as are likely to stir the
entire world.
An eminent member, in discussing the
meeting. said today:
I'VE expect to come face to face with
the origin of life-to come within view
of that time when the chemist In his

the wage conference between representa-

WILSON IS GRAT|F|ED
Vermont Vote PleaSeS Demo-
cratic Candidate
INDICATES GREAT INTEREST
Predicts an Outpouring at the Polls
This Fall-Soon to Confer
With Bryan.
INDICATES GREAT INTEREST

SEAGIRT, n. J., September 4.-'The
fact that the democrats more than held
their own in Vermont. a republican state,
but made substantial gains, means a big
vote throughout the country" said Gov.
Woodrow Wilson today. commenting on
the election results in that state.
The governor said the big democratic
vote was 'very gratifying" It was diff
cult, however. he said, to analyze the re-
suits in Vermont on any comparative
basis because the total vote was so much
larger this year than two years ago. and
1t was hard to trace the sources Of the
gains. At any rate, he said, the Yer
mont election indicated a heavy vote
throughout the country in the coming
election. and he said that he regarded
it as significant that the democrats had
carried the cities throughout Vermont.
"One thing is sure added the gov
ernor. 1.-The democrats did not lose any
votes to the new party. and the republi-
cans lost The results are certainly
encouraging"
Favorable Vote in Ohio.
The governor said he was greatly
pleased" to notice the favorable vote in
Ohio on the constitutional amendmen,
proposing the initiative and referendum
He also manifested much interest in the
primary vote in New Hampshire and
Wisconsin.
AS to the candidacy of James s. Smith,
jr., for United States senator, the gov
ernor again today declined to make any
comment.
The governor planned to leave here al
2 o'clock today for New York, where he
will consult for a short time with Vice
Chairman McAdoo Of the campaign COM
mittee, meet thirty editors Of foreign
language newspapers at the National
Arts Club at 5 o'clock and address a dol
lar dinner given by the Woodrow Wilson
Workingmen's League Of New York.
Also to Meet Bryan.
William Jennings Bryan is expected to
meet Gov. Wilson within a few days.
The governor was uncertain as to where
he would meet Mr.. Bryan, whether here
or on a speaking trip.
IT expect to. get in telegraphic CON-
munication with Mr.. Bryan soon." said
the governor. He has not seen Mr..
Bryan since the Jackson day banquet in
Washington.
I'VE have been getting kilograms from
everywhere" remarked the governor,
| asking for Mr.. Bryan to speak The
country seems to be clamoring to hear
him."

TWO AMENDMENTS
MAY HAVE BEEN LOST
Equal Suffrage in Ohio Beaten
and Possibly Good
Roads.

COLUMBUS, Ohio. September 4.-To-
days returns from yesterdays special
election on amendments to the Ohio con-
stitution confirmed the early indications
that all Of the forty-two amendments
were ratified, with the exception of equal
suffrage and possibly good roads.
Returns began pouring into the office
of the secretary Of state early today in
large numbers. The additional returns
received seem to indicate that the vote
on the taxation amendment was closer
than was believed at first.
The suffragists declared today that the
fight for equal suffrage in this state will
continue. despite the severe black eye
given the cause at yesterdays election
The suffragists intimated that the initia-
tive and referendum, which passed by q
big majority, will be used in another at
tempt to give votes to women
Indications early today were that the
total vote on all Of the forty-two amend
ments to the Ohio constitution will not
be known for several days. Returns on
the nine principal amendments are yet
to be received from more than 5000 OF
the 5,197 precincts of the state.
Another surprise was the comparatively
light vote on the liquor license amend
ment In the larger cities the vote on
license ran from ten to fifteen per pre-
cinct behind the vote on the other prin-
cipal amendments

a few minutes the insects began to fall
to the floor lifeless and 1t was not long
until all were dead. Several water in
sects which had been turned loose on
the floor expired in the same way.
IT was explained that flies breathe
through the pores in their bodies and
that the pine leaf product closes the
pores and thus stops respiration. the
mixture, 1t is stated, Is not injurious to
human beings, who. OF course, breathe
in an entirely different way.

WHITE RIVER JUNCTION. Vt. Sep
tember 4.-The close race between the
three parties-republican. democratic and
progressive-in yesterdays election was
emphasized today in the revision of re-
turns of the vote for governor.
Returns from all but fourteen small
towns gave. for governor: Allen VI.
Fletcher. republican, 25.O72; Harlan y.
Howe, democrat 19,372: Rev. Frazer
MetzSer, progressive. 1900: Clement +.

The missing towns in 1910 gave: Mead.
republican. 1.4ss: Watson. democrat, 4s6:
Towle, prohibition, IS. Ordway, socialist.
IL.
If the proportionate gain or loss 10
maintained in the remaining towns IL 10
figured that the total vote in Vermont
for the three leading candidates will be:
Fletcher, 26, 100, Howe. 2o.Ioo: Metzger.
$3.50
The failure of the republican candidate
for governor to obtain Il majority for the
first time in the history of the state I'm
an election preceding a presidential cleo
ton causes the election of the state'S 5
chief executive to be made by the legis-
lature. 1t is expected that the republic
ans Will have substantial majority IN
eighty-one towns yet to report on the
vote for representatives.
Progressive Strength a Feature.
The strength OF the progressive vote
was the feature of the election. ThH
democrats also increased their vote over
two years ago. The falling off in tho
republican vote was marked. Indications
We're that a great part of the detection
went to the progressive, although tho
democrats also gained, and a few of tho
republican votes went to the prohibition
ticket.
Comparison Of returns from five of tho
fourteen counties shows that the demo-
Gratis carried Caledonia county. and tho
republicans were successful in Grand
Isle, Orange, Washington and Lamoille
counties.
Thought to Indicate Taft's Defeat.
The fact that the republican majority
in Vermont has fallen below 2a,ooo is an
| Indication, according to some political
| observers, including progressives anu
| democrats, of the defeat of the republican
| national administration in November.
