rality of about 5000 Cushing carried
Boston by 1914, but this lead was over
come by Mccall in the early returns from
the smaller cities and towns. The vote
for former Governor Eugene y. Foss was
comparatively small.

Governor David l. Walsh for renomi-
nation had an easy race against Fred
erck S. Deitrick, the only other con-
tender for the Democratic nomination.
The foregoing was based on returns from
443 election precincts out of 1140 in the
state, embracing 1873 out of 1853 cities and
towns. including Boston. These gave:
Gushing l4,74S. Foss 1854. Mccall 1914.
Walsh 40.650. Detrick 1862
The only other contest near the head
of the ticket was for Republican lieuten-
ant governor. For this Calvin Coolidge
had received 17,431 against 1919 for Guy
a. Ham.
Except in Boston. where the voting
ended at o'clock, the polls in the cities
generally were open until P. NJ and in
towns the closing time varied from noon
to 10 O'Clock tonight.

part follows:
Il am of course disappointed at the
size of the vote. but not at all discour-
aged. | have no doubt that the issue of
national prohibition will soon win in this
state. 1t is already in the Republican
party. l shall keep up the fight

age to Piraeus, Greece. 1t appeared to
have broken out simultaneously in
four different parts of No. hold,
which was largely filled with cotton
bale, printing paper and other inf1am-

Although there was much excite

seriousness of the fire was learned,
the officers succeeded in quieting their
fears and until all were safely aboard

Won Papen's Statement

Capt. Won Papen. the military at
tache at the German embassy in WASH
ineton in a letter to a Berlin friend,
said:
Mr.. Archibald is going to Germany
and Austria to collect new impressions
from the point Of view of the strictly
impartial journalist he always has
been"
The documents included letter
from DR.. Constantin Theodor Dumba.
the Austro- Hungarian ambassador at
Washington to Baron Won Burian, the
Austrian Hungarian minister Of for
eign affairs.
Or. Dumba's Impressions
This letter dated Aug. 20, says:
The reply of Secretary Of State
Lansing to the note of June goth in
which Your Excellency protested
against the enormous deliveries Of
weapons and munitions to the Allies
from the United States was published
here-I do not know whether with the
agreement Of the Austrian government
on the 18th ultimo.
U. S. Arguments Weak
AS was to be expected the refusal
was quite categorical. The legal ar
euments are certainly very weak for
the references to articles supplied by
Germany and Austria during the Boer
war are not to the point and are mis-
leading. for at that time Germany
claimed the right to send foodstuffs
to the Beers via the neutral port of
Lorenzo Marques, and. if l am not
mistaken, carried the point after the
war against England.
THE true ground for the discourage
ing attitude of the President lies, as
his confident. Mr.. House, already in
formed me in January and now has
repeated, in the fact that the authori-
ties in a serious crisis would have to
rely on neutral foreign countries for
all their war materials. At no price
and in no case will Mr.. Wilson allow
this source to dry up.
WiIsonian Temperament
For this reason I am of the opinion
that the return to the question whether
officially, by replies of Your Excelency
or by a semi-official conversation be-
tween myself and the secretary of state
will not only be useless but even, hav-
ing regard to the self-willed temperament
Of the President, harmful.
In this matter l agree entirely with
the view expressed by Consul Schwegel
in report attached. The President has
broken all the bridges behind him and
made his point of view so definite that 1t
is impossible for him to retreat from his
position.
Presidents Power
LAS shown last autumn, he can always
through his personal influence infer the
