ton to throw her lot with the Entente
Allies News coming by way Of Paris
lends support To the growing impress
sion that Roumania is preparing to
intervene in the war.
BY royal decree, new classes of Rou-
manian recruits are being mobilized.
Vienna reports that "a grave situation"
may arise between Austria and Rou-
mania in connection with the proposed
use of the lower Danube to transport
Russian troops to Bulgaria. Little
news comes direct from Bucharest. as
the censorship is enforced so strictly
that even ordinary messages are
stopped, but il is known the agitation
in favor of war is spreading through
the army
The only political development of
note in the Balkans Is change of
tone in the ministerial press of Ath-
ems, which is publishing apparently
inspired articles of a nature friendly
to the Entente Allies, although stiIl
insisting Greece must maintain her
policy of benevolent neutrality.
Along the eastern front there is evi-
dence of considerable extension of
the Russian offensive.
This is indicated by official reports
from both sides, although neither
claims any important result from these
operations.
Definite reports concerning the pro
gress of the new German attack on
Riga also are lacking.

various firms and individuals who
have had experience in the selection
of pipe for use in sewer systems, some
of them condemning cement pipe and
others expressing an opinion in its ia
yor.
one telegram, from j. b. Hunter,
commissioner of improvements of DEN

brick if cheaper than vitrified pipe.
Concrete not satisfactory. We no longer
permit its use"
Another telegram from concern
which manufactures glazed cement
pipe recites that hundreds of miles
in the largest cities of this country
and its use is increasing with tremen-
dous rapiditY. No instance can be
shown Of any deterioration or machine
made cement sewer pipe and govern
ment reports show it is also proof

Douglas, Ariz., Nov 3.-The day

waging battle indicates that there will
be much blood spilled before the end.
Apparently greater caution is being
exercised against bullets landing on

Board May Select the
Pipe for Sewer Tonight

! 7. -
Tonight the board of trustees will
probably solve the vexatious problem
as to whether cement or yitrified pipe
is better for use in the Imperial El
Centre sewer system. Since the sale
of the bonds and the awarding of the
contract for construction recently va
rious members of the board have been
investigating the merits of the > va
rieties of pipe and representatives, of
concerns which deal in both have been
in conference with members of the
board.
If vitrified pipe is selected, it is
pointed out that cement must be used
at each joint, which, in a sense, would
be equivalent to using cement pipe.
as the cement in the coupling would
be liable to wear in exactly the same
degree as would an entire cement pipe.
On the other hand, it is pointed out
that cement pipe, if ii is selected for
the system, would be manufactured in
El Centre, and thousands of dollars
would be paid out in the valley i'm Ia
Dor bills.
I'VE are neutral as far as the selec-
tion of pipe for the system is con-
cerned." Frank Olmsted, a member Of
the engineering firm of Olmsted Il
Gillelen, which performed the prelim-
mary work on the system, said this
morning.

Suffrage and Prohibition
Are Defeated in the East

New York, Nov. 3.-Woman suffrage
and the new constitution alike went
down to defeat in the state election
yesterday, the majority against suf-
frage exceeding 100000. Advocates of
suffrage, however. look on this as a
victory, for they had not expected of
late that they would carry the state
and they look on the election as having
forced the issue and prepared for fur.
ther contests in which they look for
better results.
The proposed new constitution had
aroused antagonism on the part of all
the progressive element, and its de-
feat was oYerwhe dining.
Columbus, o., Nov. By major
ity of between 10000 and 10000, Ohio
yesterday rejected state prohibition, the
majority being smaller than had been
expected by the liquor interests, which
had expected great majority. The
battle had been a strenuous one
throughout the state and but for the
majorities in the big cities the state
would have gone dry.
Boston, Nov Massachusetts yes
terday refused to give the franchise
to women by a big majority. The gov
ernorship hinges on a small and uncer-
tain plurality.
