FAILED TO GAIN
 STRENGTH IN CITIES

One general phase of the voting is that
 the antisuffrage ratios were quite as
 strong in the large cities, where the suf-
 fragists naturally centered their cam
 reigns as in the rural districts where there was less campaign activity. New
 York city, with only 1e1 districts miss
 ing out of 2079 districts, gave 302 2333 against suffrage as compared with 212,- 4Sf for the amendment. Puffalo, the sec
 ond largest city in New York state,
 Rochester, Albany. Troy and a major
 ity O. the other eires oi the state went against suffrage by lnquestionable ma
 jorities. Ithaca, Niagara Falls and
 Jamestown were the only conspicuous exceptions to the rule.
 In Boston the anti-suffrag gists showed overwhelming strength, while in Phil adelphia the ratio in most of the election districts first heard from indicate a vote of 10 to l in opposition to giving the vote. In detail the latest figure at ? o'clock this morning from the three states were: New York: Returns from 4009 election districts out of 571S in the entire state give: Yes, 4O6S77 mo- 555,476
 Massa chusetts: With only 30 election precincts missing give: Yes, 147,26o; mo- | 270, ,TSS
 | Pennsylvania: With returns complete | from only 925 election districts out o1

OVERWHELMING MAJORITY
 AGAINST EQUAL SUFFRAGE

New York, November 3.--New York, Massachusetts and Pennsylvania defeated the proposition of granting suffrage to women by overwhelming majorities in yesterdays election.
 The indicated majoTities against suf- frage at an early hour this morning follow.
 Massachusetts, 1OS,OO0 Geturns practi- cally complete)
 New York, 2O5.66S (about two-thirds of the state reported).
 Pennsylvania. 15o,oOo about one-fifth of the state reported).
 This is the indicated result of the first big popular vote on the suffrage question in the eastern states.
 New Jersey, the only other eastern state that has voted on the question, de- feated the proposition at a special cleo ton on October 19 by a majority of 56,ooo.
 In one of these four states will the women have the opportunity of getting the suffrage project before the voters again for sometime; four years in New York; five years in Pennsylvania and New Jersey and two in Massachusetts.
 The anti-suffrage voting appears to have been the strongest in Pennsyl- vania, where the ratio is roughly esti- mated as high as 3 to against suf- frage. Massachusetts appears to have been next with ratio of about to |, while New York state, as had been expected from the fact that the cam paign had been waged so strongly there, had the closest ratio of about to 3.
 Notwithstanding the heavy anti-suf- frage majorities, the votes for women leaders claim to see in the returns some reason for jubilation because it was realized that the states where their cause was on trial today were considered conservative strongholds and while voting for the first time on the question they still showed the win ming over of many hundred thousands of men in all three states to the woman suffrage idea. Statements by the suf- frage leaders were uniformly to the ef- feet that yesterdays results were en- coura ging enough to warrant renewal of suffrage campaigns and indicated that there would be no abandonment of the demand for the ballot.

Dr. Shaw Comments

New York. November 2.-At the headquarters of the National American Woman Suffrage association. where Dr. Anna Howard Shaw and her lieutenats received the returns. optimism ebbed as the heavy vote against suffrage grew with late returns.
 "If, when the final count comes" said Dr. Shaw, i've should not have won the state, we at least have won the greatest victory in the history of number of votes that have ever been cast for us in any state.
 ''As to Massachusetts am not at all surprized at the way the vote went. Massachusetts is an exceedingly con- servative state. I didn't expect suf- frage to carry in Massachusetts.
 I hear that Philadelphia has beaten suffrage by 50,000. am not surprized.

New York Cotton.

New York, oct. 7.-The cotton mar ket showed renewed irregularity early today. The failure of the weather man to show frosts in the belt was probably disappointment to some of the scattered buyers on yesterdays late advance. While the cables were lower than due, there street liquidation attributed to the recent action of war stocks. The market opened at a decline Of points to an advance of 1 point, rallied to 12.f5c for December and 12.9Sc for January and then eased off again to 12.65c for December and 12.81c for January.
 Private cables reporting that a Liverpool statistician estimated the worlds consumption of American cotton this season at only 12,500,o0o bales was followed by increased of ferings during the middle of the morning, which sent the active months 13@1Spoints lower, with De- cSnbkt selling at 12.57c and January at I2.74c. At this level the selling became less active and prices showed rallies of 10 or 12 points from the lowest shortly after midday. General business was less active today and Wall street liquidation somewhat less in evidence after the recent heavy selling and owing to the firmer tone of the stock market.
 The publication of the western belt forecast was followed by more &C., tive demand during the early after noon, owing to the predictions for colder weather with frost and freez- tng temperatures in some sections. The first spurt of buying on this factcr sent December contracts up to 12.Sl and January to 1299c Or about Gl9 points net higher, but the mar ket met considerable cotton as it neared the 13c level and subsequent fluctuations were irregular.
