Action of the President.
(By Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, D. :, Nov. 12-Presi-
dent Wilson, while hearing commit
tee of negroes who came to protest
the proposed segregation of rases in
government departments, was grossly
insulted by William Trotter, of Boston,
black negro, who acted as spokes-
man of the delegation. President Will
son ordered Trotter and his follow
ers out of the White House and told
them that they would have to send
white man to represent them before
he would listen to their arguments.
The president was highly indignant
at the familiarity expressed by the
negro chairman. "Nev before in my
life have l been addressed in such a.
manner by negro" he said to rep
resentative Of the Associated Press. "I
am Southern democrat and down in
Georgia, where | was born, negroes
keep their places"
Southern Citizens Indignant.
While the large number of Southern
ers residing in Washington are
considerably wrought up over words Of
the black chairman of the delegation,
still they are pleased with the action
of President Wilson. The treatment
accorded Booker T. Washington, of
Alabama, by President Roosevelt,
when he asked the negro educator to
dine with him, has never been forgot
ten by Southern citizens of Washing
ton and they are pleased With the diff
ference between their president and
the ex-bull moose boss.

PARIS, Nov. 12-The French army
now has the use of the -millimeter

them at the disposition of France and
annount ed that she was sending back
those already delivered, so that the
French army might use them. The

CAPTURE OF DIxMUNDE AND RE-

ALLIED NATIONS
D|XMUNDE ON ROAD
TO ENGLISH CHANNEL
German Submarines Destroy English
Torpedo Boat Within Sight OF Eng
Iish Seaport1Lond0n Fears Invas-
ion of Island by Kaiser's Army.

LONDON, Nov. 12.-The wave of OPP
timism which has been sweeping Eng
land during the past week, was check
ed today by news that the Germans
had captured .Dixmunde and renewed
indications of peril from German sub
marines by the fate of the British tor
nedo boat Niger, which was destroyed
late yesterday within sight of the Eng
lisb shore by a German submarine.
Dixmunde is on the direct road from
Cstend to Dunkirk, which point is be-
1ieved to be the German objective, and
Yesterdays retreat may mean only that
the Allies have taken up new position
in order to stop the German advance,
after inficting great loss upon the
attackers. The early strategy evidenc-
ed by the Anglo-French commanders
lends color to this belief, and the Ger
mans may have succeeded only in
attaining barren victory without
gaining military advantage.
At Ypres, where desperate lighting
is in progress this morning the AL
lied forces maintain their position and
are doggedly resisting the German
assaults. The heavy masses of Ger
man infantry being hurled against the
Allies, trenches are being severely
nnnisbed. according to news received
boro from the 'front.' and owing to the
topography of the country any attack
tho marty must move over many expos
od nositions before dislodging an en-
+renched resistance.
British troops in the country about
vrros and Dixmunde are offering a
horoic resistance to the German Often
Give and artillery is being used freely
on both sides.

SECURE PHOTOGRAPHS
DURING THE FUNERAL

\ number of photographers repre-
senting various publications and a
couple of moving picture concerns
were in the city today for the purpose
OF taking pictures during the Weyer-
haeuser funeral So insistent were
they that a request was made of Sher-
in o. l.. Bruner by friends of the fam
lily for protection at Chippionnock
cemetery. and that official sent Depu-
~ Sheriffs Tom Hughes, Ed Glasgow
and Charles Dunlap to the cemetery.
However, there were no photograph
ers there and the officers found moth
ing to do.
One moving picture camera man
went to the residence on Tenth ave
nue. and endeavored to secure pictures
from the street. Later the cortege
was taken as it passed along Seventh
avenue
Since the death of Mr.. Weyerhaeu-

RETURNS OF THE
ELECTION MIXED
Canvassing Board Finds Much
Confusion and Some
Discrepancies.
NO SEPERATE COUNT IN 9TH
Town Clerk Points to Need of More
Care in Selection OF the
Officials.

The presence of the women at the
polls Tuesday had a disconcerting eff
feet upon the election officials. judg-
ing by the shape in which the returns
we're when they came into the hands
of the canvassing board.
The official canvass was completed
this morning and totals were comput-
ed this afternoon. After wading
through the mass Town Clerk Shirley
ID. Folsom declared he had never seen
such confusion in the returns.
Conditions were worst in the sixth
precinct. where the women's and
mems votes were not counted sepa-
rately and only totals were turned in.
If the woman suffrage act should be
declared illegal it would be necessary
to secure an order of the court to open
the boxes and make recount.
Some of the Errors.
In the first precinct there was no
tally list turned in. In the third no
legal return was made. In the seventh
the certificate did not correspond with
the tally sheet. In the eighth the
certificate was incomplete. In the
tenth there was no certificate of cleo
ton. In the twelfth the certificates
showed in one place 80 for Riess while
in another place it was 50. In the
the returns from one pre-
cinct were given in one place as SO
and in another as 6S.
These were only part of the errors
and Inconsistencies found, according
to Mr.. Folsom. The supervisors
,bo,,ld a~ercise more care in the Selec-
ton of election boards" said he.
Beyond the totals on annexation
and local option the board at $3.50 this
afternoon was able to give out no fig
ures except on supervisor. the plural
