GERMANS REPULSED IN WEST
Make Big Offensive Movement Near
Rheims But Are Forced Back
With Heavy Losses.

London, Oct. 20.-A big offensive
movement by the Germans to the east
of Rheims on a front of six miles
which was preceded by a heavy bonn
bardment and the use of asphyxiating
shells and clouds of chlorine gas was
successful in gaining for the Teutons
some of the French first-line trenches.
Counter-attacks, however, resulted in
the Germans being forced back to their
former positions with heavy losses, ac-
cording to Paris.
A further gain for the Germans to
the south of Riga and the repulse of a
Russian attack northwest of Jacob
stadt are the only engagements of note
mentioned in the last German official
note.

FIGHT FOR ADOPTION OF CON-
STiTUTIONAL AMENDMENT
TO ENFRANCHiSE
WOMEN FAILS.
WILSON'S OWN PRECINCT
VOTES AGAINST MEASURE
Only One County of the Twenty-one
in the State Appeared to Be Ger
tain to Go for Suffrage-EarIy |
Figures Are: For, 34,610;
Against, 47,124.

Jersey City, N. j., Oct. 21.-The de-
eat of woman suffrage in New Jersey
has been conceded by Mrs. E. F. Feick-
ert, president of the New Jersey State
Woman Suffrage association. Her adj
mission was borne out by unofficial
early returns from every section of
the state which indicated that the ma
jority against suffrage was decisive.
Four hundred and ninety-four of the
states 1891 voting precincts gave a.
majority of 1854 against adoption Of
the constitutional amendment to en-
franchise women, according to the res
turns. The figures were:
For, 34,610; against, 47,124.
President Wilson's own precinct, the
seventh election district of Princeton
borough, voted against suffrage by a
majority of more than to 1, the fig.
ures being: For, 81; against, $50.
One County for Suffrage.
The only county of the 81 in the
etate which appeared to be certain to
go for suffrage was Cape May. Bur-
lington county was claimed for suf-
TRACE by the women leaders.
Where suffrage triumphed, the unof-
ticial returns showed the maiorities
to be small.
Leaders at the headquarters of the
suffrage association here realized early
in the evening that only a landslide
in the rural sections would save the
day for them. Late returns showed
that instead of the hoped-for landslide
the country communities had, in many
cases, voted against the amendment.
This was notably true in Essex coun-
ty, where nine of Newark's suburbs
arrayed themselves solidly against
suffrage.

AUSTRO-GERMANS HASTEN
DRIVE TO CONSTANTINOPLE

Paris, Oct. 20.-Development Of tre-
mendous Teutonic pressure to the
southeastward, rather than due south,
through Serbia and Semendria, is
arousing the suspicious here that the
Austro-German tacticians are aiming
now to get through by the shortest
possible route to friendly Bulgarian
territory.
The drive across Serbia in this di-
rection, would be but 25 or 80 miles
at the narrowest point of Serb terri
tory. Thence. after crossing the
Timok river, presumably unopposed,
there would be an overland march of
about 85 miles to the nearest railroad
connection with Constantinople.

VICTIMS BODIES ARE LOST
Car Breaks up When Raised From
Creek Into Which 1t Had Fallen,
Near Randolph, Kansas.

Randolph, Kan, Oct. 19.-The exact
number of dead in the wreck of the
Union Pacific motor train at the Fancy
Creek bridge here may never be-
known. When the car which plunged
head first into the creek was raised,
the front end dropped out, carrying
into the flooded stream those bodies
which the rescuers had been unable to
reach.
All efforts to find the bodies in the
racing stream had failed, but officials
estimated that four and possibly six
persons were drowned in addition to-
the IL whose bodies were recovered
