Allies Declare Any Violation
Will Be Attended by Dis
astrouS Results

Mexico City, Nov 6. - The Mex
lean government has been notified by
the British ambassador at Washington
of the presence of German submarines
in the Gulf of Mexico and has been
warned that the allies will take
drastic measures if the undersea
craft receive aid from Mexican ports
or source. This information was
made public last night by Foreign
Minister Aguilar who issued the text
of the note received from the British
ambassador through United States
Secretary of State Lansing and Charge
D'Affaires Charles B. Parker.
The British note demands a strict
censorship of the Mexican wireless and
says that any failure to maintain
Mexican neutrality will be attended
by disastrous results. Tn his reply,
addressed to Mr.. Parker, Senior Aguilar
says that it seems strange to the
Mexican government that Great
Britain should use the United States
department as an intermediary on a
point concerning Mexico alone, es-
pecially when Great Britain has an
accredited representative to Mexico.
The reply says that the Mexican gov
ernment will, for this time only, an

ELECTORAL MAJORITY
Wilson Feels Sure He'll Win;
Mccormick Claims Practi-

Votes; Fair Weather Fore
casted.


New York, Nov. C. President
woodrow Wilson and Charles E.
Hughes, candidates of the dominant
parties for President, remained quietly
at their homes to-day recuperating
from the labors of the long campaign.
The last word sent forward by them
to the people was an expression that
each felt confident of victory.
President Wilson planned to remain
at home to-day and his only activity
tomorrow will be trip to Princeton
to cast his ballot Tomorrow night
with only the members of his family
about him, he will receive the returns
in his study at Shadow Lawn.
Mr.. Hughes remained at his hotel
early in the forenoon but later visited
the national Republican headquarters
chiefly, 1T was stated, to thank the
workers there for their efforts in his
behalf. He intended to take a drive
through the parks this afternoon and
spend the rest of the day at his hotel.
Tomorrow he will vote in his home
district here and tomorrow night he
Will get the returns in his hotel rooms.
Like Mr. Wilson, he plans to have
only immediate members of his fam
lily with him when the returns come.
Headquarters Still Active
Political headquarters here still pre-
Sented scenes OF activity to-day. Last
reports from the political battlefield
were received and final instructions
sent. Both the chairmen had little to
add to their forecasts issued Saturday
night Republican Chairman Wilcox
then predicted Hughes would receive
at least 100 majority in the electoral
college, while Democratic Chairman
Mccormick gave Mr.. Wilson 364 votes
in that body. The necessary elective
vote in the college is 266 se-
The larger participation of women
as voters in a presidential campaign
and the congressional election are of
keen interest to politicians generally.
The returns from the States in which
women will vote. it is admitted, will
be closely and anxiously scanned.
So far as Congress is concerned. a
full House of Representatives and
thirty-three United States Senators
will be elected. The total membership
of the House is 435 and the necessary
majority is 21S. In the Senate the
present membership is SO and the
necessary majority is 40. In all. 35
new Senators will take their seats next
March. OF these, the Republicans
elected two at the September election
in Maine. Forty-two of the States will
elect State officers tomorrow, in ad-
dition to national congressional candi-
dates. OF these States, thirty-five will
elect Governors.

WEST SHORE HIGH
SCHOOL LOAN HAS
FAVOR OF VOTERS
People Understand That II
Will Improve Conditions
and Won't Be Costly

The West Shore central high school
1t is believed, will be approved by all
of the communities which will vote
upon 1t tomorrow.
This good news was brought to
Harrisburg this morning by represen-
tatives of Camp Hill. Lemoyne,
Wormleysburg, West Fairview, Enola,
Washington Heights and East Penns-
boro township in general, who had
devoted Saturday afternoon and Satur-
day night TO working among the
voters.
When the loan was first proposed
many people were against it because
they feared it would mean a big in
crease in taxes, but now it has been
shown that it will not only cost less to
operate one central high school than
to have a high school for each COM
munity, but the result will be high
school equal to that of a large city
and it is believed the whole West
Shore will be built up rapidly as re-
suit.
Failure of Loan Would Be Costly
