U. S. WILL FIGHT

Attorney General Gregory has de.

partment of justice.
The defence to be presented in each

licitor General Davis and other depart.
ment officials with United States at.
torneys in various jurisdictions.
The department is unable to deter.
mine whether 1t will be necessary to
defend each of the many suits already
begun, or whether the railroads will
be contented to make a test case OF
one suit. No word has reached the
attorney general from the railroads
suggesting such a course and If such
a proposal is not made, each suit will
be defended.
Department officials said no offers
had been made to the attorney general
to make a test cas- of any particular
suit. It was pointed out that tina
granting or refusal of a temporary
restraining order by one federal judge
would have no binding effect in law
upon any other judge of equal rank
and that, at best, its force would be
only argumentative.
It was said also the department has
no reason to believe each railroad may
not prefer to fight its suit, in the hope
that It, at least, will be successful.

With unofficial returns from all the

In one or the other column, Woodrow
Wilson was reelected president with
276 electoral votes.
Charles Evans Hughes, the Republic
can nominee, with Minnesota belated
returns placing him ahead of his op.
ponent, has 255 electoral votes.
There are a number of isolated dis.
tricts In New Mexico yet to be heard
from, but 1t is not thought these bal
lots would materially affect the result
In that far off state. The same con-
ditions exists in Minnesota. Hughes
maintains his plurality over the presi'
dent by a safe margin with thirty
eight districts missing and the guard
vote still uncounted. The result OF
the balloting by the militiamen on the
border will not be announced until
next Tuesday, but these are likely to
increase, rather than decrease the
Hughes total and headquarters feel
certain the state is safely Hughes.
In three states, however, there were
prospects Of contests over n elector
in each instance. The eligibility Of a
Democratic elector In Texas has been

prohibit a person holding Office from
serving as an elector.

Washington died just before election
day and the party managers attached

other name for his. The legality Of
the Republicans. A somewhat similar
case has arisen in West Virginia,
where one of the Republican electors
refused to run and the Republicans re-
sorted to pastors bearing another
name in place of his.
The presidents plurality yer Mr..

cording to the latest estimates based
upon the incomplete returns, Is 403,-

that of Mr.. Hughes $3.50, 401.
