patrons.

include everything that is nee

NTHREE STATES

New York, Nov. 3.-Vot-
ers in the states of New York,
Massachusetts, and Pennsyl
vania, today defeated by large
majorities the proposal to grant
suffrage to women. In New
York 2,467 districts out of
5,713 in the state, gave 241,-
928 for and 32l,418 against
the proposition; Massachu-
setts with returns in from 936
of it's l,140 precincts, showed
95,077 for and l78, 1872 against
the measure, while in Pennsyl-
vania slow returns indicated
an overwhelming defeat of the
amendment.
New Constitution Granted.
Returns in New York state
undoubtedly indicated also the
defeat of the project to adopt
a new constitution while the
republicans had safe major
ity in the new state assembly.
The state reelected three re-
publican congressman, N. S.
Gould in the Both, B. H. Smell
in the 31st and w. S Bennett
in the 23d districts.
In Massachusetts, the CUB
ernatorial race appeared to be
close. Returns from 938 pre-
cincts out of ,040 in the state
gave Mccall, republican, l83,-
332, and alsh, democratic,

the inmates together with sew
eral citizens were caught in the

There is some qut stion
among many of the citizens as
as to whether this action is to
make good the mayor s pledge
to many citizens not many
months ago, that such places
would be closed as long as he
was mayor.
What other reasons may
have been the cause of such
sction there are many rumors

GERMAN WAR FILMS
PROVE SENSATION.

Real war films put in an ap-
pearance at the Forty-fourt
Street Theatre yesterday. For
once an audience was not ask
ed to content itself with pic
lures of a monarch reviewing
his troops. The firing of 30
centimetre guns, the bursting
of shells and all the other
deadly manifestations of war
took place on the screen, and
at times literally brought the
audience to its feet.
So many Germans crowded
to see them yesterday that it
was found necessary to ask for:
police protection in the after
noon. From that time until
late at night there were never
less than 1000 persons wait
ing in line, and many were
compelled to stand for hours
before obtaining entrance.
Beginning with scenes in
Berlin when the troops left for
the front, the German advance
in Galicia is next shown. The
fleeing population and the
bombardment of Przemysl are
among the most spectacular
incidents. Views on the Ital-
ian front showed the Austri-
an army in operation, with
Austrians poised on apparent
ly inaccessible Alpine peaks.

The pictures are far and
away the best war films yet
seen in New York.-New

The German war pictures
will be shown at the Beach op-
era house Saturday, Nov. 6.
