Flood of Ballots Started in
Some States at 6 A. M.
Privately, Leaders Admit They
Are Puzzled ON Result.
STRAWS BLOW EVERY WAY
Betting Rampant in Gotham
With Much Even Money.
Voting Machine Returns at 5
p. M. in Some Cities.

New York. Nov. THE flood of
ballots which will sweep either Will
son or Hughes into the presidency
March 4, began rising early today
While publicly, sponsors for the Re-
publican and Democrat organizations
declare entire confidence in the vote,
privately they are very much at sea. In
no previous election has there been
such lack of indication of which way
the straws blow. The silent vote
has been more silent than ever before.
Since the campaign opened about
August 10, there have been half doz-
en- different trends" to public senti-
ment, overlapping at times. Today
both sides were claiming the benefit
of such a current.
The most unusual eleventh hour de-
velopment in connection with the cleo
prides itself on having always picked
a winner. Up until midnight the odds
have favored Hughes. But today they
opened with less advantage to the Re-
publican nominee-almost at even
money.
Republican Cash Predominates.
At the Waldorf, Tex Rickard, dis
carding for the once the role of tight
promoter to act as betting commission
er, could not place money except at
even odds. More Republican cash was
IN evidence than Democratic 1t was
estimated that at least 100000 Will
change hands on the verdict OF the
voters today-probably the largest
sum that has ever been wagered on
presidential election.
But if the odds here were slightly
in favor of Hughes, messages from
certain midwest cities indicated a
complete reversal In Cleveland, for
instance. betting commissioners here
said Wilson ruled the favorite.
The American people may expect
first complete city returns from two
or three small hamlets in Massachu-
sets, which have had the proud dis
tinction of being first to be mentioned
in half a dozen elections.
Buffalo Returns Early.
In the pivotal state of New York.
first returns are expected from Buff
falo. where voting machines are cx-
pected to give the result Immediately
after the polls close at o'clock.
$4,000 Bet on Hughes.
Dallas, Tex, Nov. Judge Barry
Miller, representing Jim" Sharpe of
Kansas City, wealthy oil man. bet sl2,-

Indianapolis Uses Voting Machine.
Indianapolis, Ind, Nov. 7-Early
reports from all parts of the state in
dicated that a heavy vote viii be
polled today. The polls opened at 8
o'clock and in many precincts one
third or more OF the registered vote
was cast by o'clock. The polls will
close at 6 o'clock tonight and returns
where voting machines are used will
be announced soon afterward.
Special precautions against frauds
were taken both United States and To-
cal officials having made arrange
ment to watch precincts from which
advance reports of alleged proposed
irregularities had been received. The
rapidity of the balloting in many sec
tions of the state indicated that
straight tickets were being voted.

midnight, in connection with the ar

at sums varying $500 to $500 but no
official of the sheriffs office had been
found to approve them and all were

With clear skies and most favorable
weather conditions. Kansas will today
cast her record vote for state and ma
tional candidates. Returns sent to To-
peka this morning indicated that the
early vote in all of the larger towns
and cities broke all former records
and that a heavy vote is being polled
in the rural districts. The days vote
may total 625, 200 or $4,000 as against
52S,2O4 in 1914. The polls will close
in the cities tonight at Z o'clock. In
rural precincts o'clock is the final
hour for voting.
For the first time in Kansas elec-
tions, the state will today test the
double board system. Double election
boards are being used in 634 of the
2,474 precincts of the state. The sec
ond boards reported for service at 10
o'clock this morning. They immedi-
ately began a count of the ballots for
state and national candidates. As a
result of the double board system, re-
turns will tonight come to Topeka
several hours earlier than in former
elections.
Leaders of both parties today ex-
pressed confidence in results in the
state owing to weather conditions.
Ideal weather conditions were taken
as an indication of a heavy vote in
both city and rural districts and a fair
test of the strength of all candidates.

VERDE APEX |S
 IN NEW HANDS

JEROME, oct. 2S.-Word was re- ceived here tonight that the Venture Hill people have come into sulphide ore in their tunnel twenty feet from the Verde Apex line. How much of a strike they made is not known at this time.
 The taking over of the Verde Apex by prominent mining men of Bisbee, Douglas and Miami proved the sensa- tion of the Jerome district this week. The stock, of which only a small parcel is out, rose steadily upon news of the deal and proved one of the most active on local markets
 In addition to the announcement that men associated with some of the largest interests in Miami are back of the new concern the Verde Apex announced the affiliation of Mir. Jourdin, chief en- gineer of the Inspiration Consolidated with the new company.
 While the property is in the heart of the Jerome district and is reported to have better showings than properties adjoining il, it has never been offered to the public, and of a consequence is best known only in the enyirons of Jerome The new company, however, which commands practically all the stock except a small parcel which has ! risen during the last week until it is 1 now 50 cents or better, is planning to ! put 100000 shares on the market soon, l but under what arrangement has not | yet been determined.
 ! Development work has been pursued in four places and in the tunnel being driven jointly with the Venture Hill people, there has been disclosed native copper in two places which verge to- ward each other in the shape of a giant V. Already the companies have ordered machinery and will. sink a shaft to intersect the ore body.
 The Verde Apex however, is abso- lutely independent of the Venture Hill in management, finances and direc- torate. In fact hardly any of it's stock ever has been put on the market.
 The work is being superintended by John $. Riley of Verde Extension fame, whose judgment is regarded as perhaps the most reliable in the district.
 The Verde Apex owns eighty-four acres, all of which is patented and has 800, 900 shares of treasury stock avail able for development work. Only 200, 900 shares. however, will be placed on the market and the plan is to parcel this out to brokers in Douglas. Bisbee
 Tucson, Phoenix, Prescott. Jerome . Miami Globe and Fl Paso, perhaps or November 6.
 The Verde Apex is practically the i hub of the district, being within a few : feet of the United Verde Copper con-
 pany from which many millions o
 dollars have been extracted. while i immediately joins the Pittsburl
 Jerome. Verde Combination, Jerom, Verde Contact, Verde Central Mines
 Hull Copper company and the Ventur,
 Hill properties.
 The management expects much O . the 100000 shares to be taken among
 the Jerome people
