any further advance of the Germans

Drina and Danube rivers, but the in

troops are being rapidly rushed from
Saloniki to the assistance of the Ser

Trenton, N. j., October 2o.-Woman
suffragists were overwhelmingly de-
feated in the election on that question
held in New Jersey yesterday The
majority for the anti -susfragists will
be between 10000 and 10000 over the
entire state. President Wilson's own
precinct In the city of Princeton went
in favor of the ants. The suffraeists
carried just one county and that was
Ocean county, which they got by a
majority of 21o.
Not daunted by their overwhelming
defeat the suffragists are making ready
for a new fight. Their campaign Is
now to be on a wider scale. They will
seek to get congress to propose to the
nation an amendment to the national
constitution, which will give the vote
to women over the entire country, and
in all places subject to its iurisdie-
ton.
New York, October 20.-The over
whelming defeat Of the cause of won-
an suffrage In New Jersey Is having
the effect of changing the plans Of, the

look to the winning Of. their cause
through state elections. What they
now propose to do Is TO make the fight
on a national scale and get an amend
rnent adopted TO the federal consti
tuition, giving the women the right to
vote as men do, once and for all.
Such was the declaration made here
today by Or. Anna Howard Shaw,
president of the National Woman Suf-
fraae association. Late returns from
New Jersey point TO a victory for the
antis by about $4,000 votes.
