Heaviest Gains

Heaviest Republican gains in the
almost overwhelming of the Democrats
ie majority were Is in Illinois, IL in
New York, 10 in Pennsylvania and 8
in Ohio. Progressive representation in
the House was cut from 10 to or

lapse of the Progressive organization
throughout the country, except in Cali
ifornia.
Contests which were so close that
they could not be determined at late
hour tonight were claimed by the
Progressives in one district in Cali
fornia; by the Democrats in two dis
tricts in Colorado, and one in New Jer-
sey and by the Republicans in two
districts in Kansas and one in North
Carolina.

RE-TELL|NC OF STORY OF THE
NAVAL BATTLE OFF chill
No Word from British Ships Engaged by Ger
mans-Kaiser's Gunner Accurate

Santiago. Chile, Nov. 4.--No word came
today from the British ships that engaged
the German squadron off Coronel Sunday
and the British side of the story is yet
to be told. According to German ac-
counts the armored cruisers Scharnhorst
and Gneisenau and the light cruisers
Nuremberg. Leipsiz and Bremen escap-
ed unframed, while the British cruiser
Monmouth was sunk the cruiser Good
Hope put out of action and the cruiser
Glasgow with the transport Otoranto sent
scurrying for shelter into the neutral
port of Talcohuano, where they are bot
tied up by the Leipsig and Bremen. 1t is
certain the Scharnhorst, Gneisnau and
the Nuremberg have arrived safely at VAL
paradise, though somewhat the worse for
their encounter with the Britishers. One
report has it that the Glasgow. badly
damaged. arrived in Coronel bay while
the Otoranto escaped.
Despite the fact that the British had
only three fighting ships as against FIVE
Of the Germans, the decisive defeat of
Admiral Craddocks squadron appears to
have produced profound impression.
The battle took place in a heavy sea.
The Germans opened fire at 10 kilometers
and for a time all the British shots fell
short. Later when they got within range
their guns scored few, but only few
hits and the casualties among the Ger
man crews were said to consist OF some
half dozen wounded. The German fire is
described as having been excellent

FOUR OF THE
STATES VOTE
DRY---2 WET
Decisions Tuesday on
Saloon Question

Chicago, Nov. 1.-Two OK the states
that voted Tuesday on the question Of
ousting saloons decided to retain bar
rooms while the other four on latest
returns tonight apparently went dry.
Arizona, apparently. voted dry, women
voters contributing materially. Col
orado and Oregon on incomplete and
unofficial returns show slight leads In
favor of ousting saloons.
One thousand and lightweight pre-
cincts in Washington give S5,741 for
prohibition against 8S,21S for saloons.
The vote on saloons in Colorado is in
doubt The precincts to be heard from
are mostly outside the cities. Prohi-
bitionists say later returns from farm
ing counties will doom saloons while
those in favor of liquor selling declare
that mining camps will swing the re-
suit the other way.
Ohio retained saloons by good ma
jority and adopted home rule amend
ment that was recognized as a saloon
measure.
Missouri defeated the county unit
system of local option which precluded
the rural vote on saloons in option
elections.
National headquarters of the
Women's Christian Temperance Union
in Chicago today received returns from
the election. News that was declared
to be encouraging came from all the
states concerned, the defeats in the
three states being offset, the reports
said, by indications of progress over
previous conditions.

WOMEN GAIN
TWO STATES
BY ELECTION
Apparent Result of the
Vote in Z States

Chicago, Nov. 4.-Woman suffrage lead
ers rejoiced tonight when belated returns
indicated that the votes for women had
been apparently granted in two of the
seven states voting on the question in
Tuesdays election with third state In
doubt.
Nevada, according to the latest returns,
granted votes to women, while in Mon
tana and Nebraska the vote was so close
that the women claimed the states. Mis-
souri,, Ohio and North and South Dakota
refused to grant equal suffrage, the ma
jority against granting the franchise to
women increasing with the size of the
population concerned
In Montana, where workers of the
American Woman Suffrage Association
made heroic attempts to win the ballot,
the vote was so close that official count
will be necessary to decide the outcome,
but the women have a slight lead on in
complete returns.
In Nevada, which seems won to the
cause of equal suffrage, 105 precincts out
of 240 gave 3619 votes for woman suffrage
and 25OS against.
The women in California probably aided
in passing law to close all resorts with
women inmates. Early returns indicated
that segregated districts in California
would be voted out. In Illinois the pro-
portion of female to male voters in the
Democratic. Republican and Progressive
parties was about the same. The women
political leaders were mostly identified
with the Progressive party. Figures in
many precincts showed, however. that the
percentage of women to men was larger
in the Democratic party than in the Pro-
gressive.
