TAKING WAR PICTURES.
Experience of the Mutual Operators
In Mexico.

Herbert VI. Dean, the veteran moving
picture operator, who has just returned
from northern Mexico, where during
four months he was with Gen. Villa
and his army, thinks that there can be
no successful taking in the way OF pic
lures of actual warfare. Mr.. Dean. how
ever, went into Mexico TO take pictures
and not to be killed. That he came out
Of the campaign of Torreon with the
Villa battle pictures and with whole
skin proves that he solved the problem.
Mr.. Dean is proud that the pictures
which he has made are the first actual
battle scenes taken by moving picture
machine. No movie operators have been
allowed on the firing line In any other
war. The present pictures are the re-
suit of a contract made by the Mutual
Film Corporation and Gen. Villa. Mr..
Dean is not laxative. He considers
that much OF his success and the fact
that he and Gen. Villa got along 80
swimmingly was because he knew how
to hold his tongue. 1t is Mr.. Deans
opinion that any American who can
keep his fingers out OF politics and
doesn't talk overmuch can live at peace
in any part of northern Mexico. The
trouble with a good many Americans
and other foreigners has been that they
loved overmuch to hear the sound OF
their own voices.
Taking battle pictures In the field is
very different thing from mock studio
conflicts with perfectly tame actors.
1t appears however, that Gen. Villa
took pretty good care of the Mutual
camera squad. At Juarez he furnished
them with common or garden box
car, this to do with as they willed.
This private car" was fitted up with
hunks. Then a Chinese cook and a
stove were secured. A few chairs and
a table completed the outfit. In this
cubby the operators lived and slept
from the first part Of December till a
fortnight ago. Then they hurried away
from Torreon with their pictures for Ell
Paso and New York. None CT the pic
lures Were developed while in Mexico.
When Mr.. Dean went into Mexico to
take pictures his greatest fear was In
digestion rather than bullets. After

In response to several inquiries the

No. 274, so that they can state definitely
that II is a dual. or that the second solu-

II may be stated that all who got solu-

Majority May Be Cut
From 14I to rs or 80
By Associaled Nrtss

Washington, Nov. 4. - Although
eighty-five congressional districts were
still unheard from at noon to-day
Democratic leaders here were conf
dent that the administration would re-
tain control of Congress, although the
majority in the House might be cut
from its present strength of 141 to
as low as twenty-five or thirty Af-
ter a conference of national Demo-
cratic committee officials at the White
House with President Wilson and
Secretary Tumulty 1t was estimated
the Democratic majority might pos
sibly stand at thirty.
The varying reports of the Senate
contests in Nevada, California, Kan
sas and Colorado gave. no promise OF
reducing the Democratic majority to
eight. Reports to the national Demo-
cratic committee were said to indi-
cate the election of James ID. Phelan,
of California, to succeed Senator Per-
kins a Republican and the reelection
of Senators Newlands and Thomas in
Nevada and Colorado. In Kansas a
close contest for the seat of Senator
Bristow seemed to be between Repre-
sentative Murdock. Progressive. and
former Senator Curtis, Republican,
leaving Representative Nesley, the
Democratic candidate, behind.
At noon with the eighty-five con-
gressional districts missing the cleo
ton of 1876 Democratic, 1876 Republi-
can and three Progressives was re-
ported. The present complexion of
the House is 265 Democrats, 129 Re-
publicans, fifteen Progressives and six
vacancies.

Chicago, ILL.,, Nov. 4.-Although re-
every indication from counts obtained
from reliable sources that Joseph G
Cannon. former Speaker of the House,
has been elected in the Eighteenth
district by $500 over Frank O'Hair,
Democratic incumbent.
Roger Sullivan's plurality in Cook
county for United States senator was
threatened in early returns by Sher-
man gains in northern counties How
ever, Medill Mccormick, Progressive
national committeeman from Illinois,
admitted that Sullivan would carry
Cook county by 10000. Sulnvan's
managers claimed the county by
80. 900 to 100000
The returns indicate the decisive de-
feat of Robins. Progressive. by a vote
much less than that given Roosevelt
two years ago.
Mckenzie, Republican, it is claimed,
will have a plurality of 1000 in Ogle
county for congressman from the Thir-
teenth district, and Sterling, Repub-
lican, apparently will have a plurality
of 1000 in Mexican county for con-
gresham from the Seventeenth dis
trict.
The early vote in the city was un-
usually heavy and the reports from
down state indicated similar activity.
Although women cannot vote for
United States senator, apparently there
was one woman vote cast .early to
every three by the men. Watchers re-
ported a surprisingly heavy vote for
William A. Guinea. Socialist candidate
for county judge, a position which
controls the election machinery in
Chicago.

They are claimed by the

leaders.
OF the eighty-hve districts unreport-
ed at noon fifty-one are now held by
Democrats. twenty-nine by Republi-
cans and five by Progressives. Should
the Democrats hold these fifty-one dis
tricts their membership in the next
House would be 235, a majority of II.
Should the Republicans re-elect the
present twenty-nine incumbents their
total gain would be seventy seats.
We have won a great victory" said
Postmaster General Burleson after a
conference with President Wilson and
other Democratic leaders during
which the returns were tabulated. He
claimed the Democrats would control
the next House by a majority of be-
tween twenty-nine and fGrty-f1ve.
In a long distance telephone talk
between Roger Sullivan, Democratic
candidate for senator in Illinois and
Thomas Pence, of the Democratic
national committee at noon, Sullivan
claimed he had been elected.
BY l D. IN. the number of missing
districts had been reduced to sew
enty-tive. The Democrats had gained
four votes, making their total 1S9 and
the Republicans gained five votes,
making their total 167. The election
of William Kent, Independent OF Cali
fornia, accounted for the other dis
trict.

JUDGE KUNKEL IS
RUNNING CLOSE:
rContinued From First Pagel

TO give q line on the vote. However,
the interior counties show very good
votes for Kunkel and each upstate
county has been cutting down the ma
jority rolled up in the two large cities
for Frazer. Then, too. Lackawanna,
Luzerne. Bucks Clearfeld and other
counties which are counted upon to
pile up good Kunkel votes as they did
in the primaries, while Berks and
other counties where Kunkel senti-
ment has been strong lately are be-
lieved to be. favorable.
John r. Geyer, the manager OF the
campaign, said: Because of incom'
plete returns we cannot say anythins
definite. The drift appears to be
toward Kunkel.'
This afternoon friends of Judge
Frazer were wiring to this city asking
for information as to certain counties
and manifesting considerable uneasi-
ness over the way the interior and
eastern counties outside of Philadel-
phia were rolling up Kunkel votes.
Lebanon county's vote for judge
was. Frazer. 1928; Kunkel. 5,999. while
Cumberland gave in 56 out of 80 dis
tricts: Frazer. S67. and Kunkel, 7,155.
