see far enough in front of his nose to
remark that if exports of war material
from this country to belligerents abroad

ting ready to grab Grant park as
parking place for autos.
The Hearst papers have started in
: on campaign for it; and if they win
they'll probably get a lot of auto ads.
The point is that if the city pro-
vides a downtown parking place
more people will buy autos.
But why should the city do it?
It will just be as satisfactory to the
people if auto owners ride to and
from town on the cars.

county judge, is taking control Of the
election machinery. SIP
Ovens didn't feel that way about
it when Kenna and Coughlin were
supporting him.
Now that they are against the
jedge, why it's different y'khow.
And Owens is going into political
partnership with Arthur Burrage
Farwel and his cute little Law and
Order League.
With Hearst and FarweIl both on
his back Owens will have a heavy
load to carry in the coming cam
paign.
Owens idea of Democracy is to
have interests outside the ward run
the First Ward.
If the voters of the ward feel that
Kenna and Coughlin represent them
as they want to be represented, what
difference does it make to Owens?
It will take more than a grand
stand play against the First Ward al
dermen. to take the Hearst curse of
Judge Owens candidacy.
But the funny thing about it is to
see all the papers falling for Andy
Lawrence's game to get control Of
the First Ward.

TBy Telegraph % Tie Tnbune.

Burlington. VI. Nov. with the
death of fourteen residents Of that and
neighboring towns, and more apparent
IL fatally stricken, the little village OF
Bristol, situated about thirty miles
from here, is plunged into great ex-
citement tonight.
All the deaths are attributed TO
poisonous whiskey purchased at the
drug store Of DR.. d. A. Bisbee, who
was placed under arrest last night.
Bristol, as we'll as the surrounding
territory. is supposed to be dry" and
no liquor is sold legally.
It has been the habit { the farmers
10 lay in supply of whiskey for Sun
day, and it was the Sunday supply
from Bisbee's drug store which did the
work on this occasion.
The first case noticed by the author
tiles was that Of Fred O'Brien, of
Bristol, who became suddenly i'll Sum

later. Ernest Duprey, Of New Haven.
and Edward Wakefield, OF Warren. died
soon afterward. The stricken men be

wood alcohol poisoning. All sad that
they hal drunk whiskcy purcha"ed
from Bisbeo.
Dr.. D. Il Stone, director Of the
State Laboratory of Hygiene, was
called 70 perform autopsies ch the
three men. The autopsies confirmed
the theory of the poisoning.
While ~. Stone was performing the
autopeies reports of other deaths came
in rapidly and it became evident chat
the most extensive poisoning in the
history Of the state was under way.
Between . o'clock this afternoon end
late tonight eleven more deaths had
been reported.

ALLIES BAYONETS
GAIN RAILROAD
RamScapelle Taken with
Loss-5,000 Dead and
Wounded on Field.
tBy Gable TO The Tribune J

In Belgium name OF town censored,
delayed in transmission), Oct. 81
This evening was cheering one FOR
the allied cause. Along the front, from
Nieuport 10 Dixmude. after a fortnight
of obb and Aow, the tide seemed 70 turn
definitely in favor OF the Allies. With
early dawn the village of Ram scapelle,
southeast from Nieuport. was taken
with fierce bayonet charge of Belgian
and French infantry. The advantage
was pushed home and the allied line Of
battle was securely set o. th erailWay
line from Nieuport to DiXmude.
Two days ago the Allies were she'll
ing that line because the Germans were
there. They had then established ten
or eleven divisions of infantry across
the User and one division ahead Of the
railway line. This evening they can
hardly be said TO have any position
safely established across the Yser. "a
our troops hold the full stretch OF the
railway embankment, which, or an
average, is less than two miles south
west OF the river.
The firm establishment OF the Ger
mans at Ramscapelle on the main road
from Ostend 20 Dunkirk ~ gh. have
made necessary the falling
back Of our whole line. The field after
the battle this morning was a sight of
horror. Probably at least 5000 we're
killed and wounded. and the killed
were in far greater proportion than
the wounded.

BETTING ODDS
ALL ON WHITMAN
Glynn Money Scarce in Wall

Win SenatOrShip.

A food OF Whitman money appeared
in the financial district yesterday, and
bets were made on the Republican can
didate at odds ranging from 10 to 9
to 10 to I. The largest bet made at the
latter figures was 81 200 TO 500, while
several others were recorded at amounts
up to $500. That Glynn will carry
Brooklyn 500 was bet at even money.
According to Fred Schumm, Buffalo
politician bet $500 TO Si2o on Whitman
and left $4,000 to be placed at the
same or better odds. In all, about Sl0,-
600 was bet yesterday at Schumms
Cafe on the rival candidates, which
makes the total now held by the Wall
Street betting commissioner on the
outcome of to-day's election almost
$4,000.
On the Produce Exchange one Of the
members offered 81 900 at even money
that Governor Glynn will carry all five

other quarters $4,000 went begging
