New York, Nov. 11.-Today's re-
turns served only to increase Presi-
dent Wilson's advantage. He now
seems assured of 272~ electoral votes
and probably 276.
New Hampshire's four votes drop

Wilson a majority of SO votes.
Few additional returns were re-

did not reduce Wilson's lead in those
states.
Democrats also found comfort in
the dispatch from Los Angeles say
ing that the difference of only 654
votes was found between highest and
lowest of the Democratic electors.
Officials said that these figures
showed there is little chance of a
split of California electors.

Meeting of Business Men
Decide to Back
Movement.
WILL ADVERTISE
THE GULF COAST
Delegates Will Be Sent to
General Convention
at Gulfport.

When number of representative
business men. of Pensacola met with
John A. Fox, of the James William
Bryan Advertising Co., yesterday
morning at the San Carlos, it was
decided that Pensacola should enter
the Gulf Coast Tourist and Develop
ment League, and pledged full sup
port of the movement.
Opening the meeting, Mr.. Fox
made a short talk, and told of the
possibilities of the Gulf coast Sec
ton, and the bentfits that could be
derived through the medium of ju-
dicious advertising, properly planned
and executed.
Mr.. Fox touched upon the results
accomplished in Southern California
where natural advantages are great,
and cited the case of the bleak Cam
adam Northwest, which 100000 per-
sons visit annually, as the direct re-
suit of attractive advertising. Mr..
Fox stated that the possibilities here
are almost unlimited.
1t was suggested that the terri
tory from west of Biloxi to east of
the Chattahoochee river be included
il the enterprise.
1t is probable that j. NJ. Muldon
will be sent as delegate to con-
vention which is to be held in Gulf
port, Miss, on Tuesday, Nov. 81. The
following resolution was adopted at
the meeting, which is identical with
the one signed by practically all
prominent men in Mobile, Hatties-
burg, Biloxi, Ocean Springs, Moss
Point, Lakesville, and Pascagoula:
eve, the undersigned, believe that
the time is opportune for undertaking
comprehensive and systematic CAM
paign of advertising and publicity for
the Gulf coast country. This rich and
productive section of, with its many
opportunities for settlement and de-
velopment, its healthful climate and
its delightful environment for win
ter resort and recreation, are practi-
cally unknown to the thickly popu-
lated sections of the north and east
We believe that thoroughly organ
lied and well directed campaign of
exploitation conducted by trained men
of experience, would definitely in
crease tourist travel to this section
and lend material aid to the settle
ment and development of the now un-
occupied lands.
1--WE, therefore, heartily approve of
the plans inaugurated to unity and
organize the Gulf coast country for
the purpose of raising fund OF
! $205, 10000 to be expended for this
purpose during the next five years
and we earnestly urge all whose in
terests are embraced in the above ter
ditory to give theis movement theil
full support and cooperation"

ment they will remain here for win
ter quarters, most of the animals
being parked at Kupfrian's park,
while the warehouse space will be oc-
cupied for the purpose of repainting
and refurnishing their property for
the next season. This viii mean that
a great deal of work win be done

The Sheesley Shows win bring a
large aggregation here, and the

Pensacola is good for the city from
the fact that, outside of the large
amount of money spent, the location

every reason to believe that other
companies will look with favor on
