HUGHES WINNING

Hughes will win New York, New Jer-

states of the nation, according to two
straw votes taken recently, one py
1.-THE Literary Digest" the other by
the Rexall Drug Stores.
"The Literary Digest" gathered re-
ports from more than 1900 CORE
spondents. These show 1,771 votes for
Wilson and 1896 for Hughes. These
results show that, while Wilson stu
holds the "solid South" and the Far
West, the North and Central Atlantic
states and the Middle West return
majorities for Hughes.
According to the Rexall poll, Hughes
will have 266 votes in the electoral
college and Wilson 265. The popular
votes collected by the stores gave
Wilson 1o7,2s8 and Hughes So,519. but
Wilson sentiment is confined to states
which have few votes in the electoral
college.

SUMMARY SHOWS
HUGHES VICTORY
1913 Electoral Votes Sure,
1913 Probable, Experts
Conservative Estimate
tBy Telegraph to The Tribune.l

Chicago. Oct. 2s-"The Chicago Trib-
une" will say tomorrow:
democratic national managers can,
not locate a single state OUTSIDE OF
the more or less solid South that is
certainly and positively about 70 oe.
liver its electoral vote to Presldent
Wilson.
Republican national managers, on
the other hand, lay claim to enough
electoral votes in the North and west
claims not seriously resisted by DEM
ocrats who disclose their inner Sc
crets-to place Charles Z. Hughes
within striking distance OF the Presl-
dency
"The Democrats, for publication. do
not concede anything, not even Penn
sylvania, and they do not give up, for
publication, a solitary commonwealth
west of the Mississippi. not even Iowa.
"The more the conflicting reports,
newspaper diagnoses, claims and cross
claims are mulled over, the brighter
become the prospects for Republican
victory on November 7. At the same
time, always barring the possibility OF
a landslide that always exists, and
which one candidate may expect as we'll
as another, it is difficult 70 get any
figures out of the available informa-
ton that tend to indicate a reasonable
chance for President Wilson's reelec-
ton.
Reports that come to The Tribune,
when analysed in comparison with in
side figures of the Republican and the
Democratic headquarters lead to the
conclusion that 1913 electoral votes may
be counted as sure for Hughes, and he
needs 266 to win.
ain the 1913 are not included the
states of Connecticut, New York, New
Jersey, Indiana, Ohio or Wisconsin.
upon the basis of these reports
made up to Friday night, an approx
nation of the situation, reduced tt
figures, is as follows:
Republican, sure, 1913.
Democratic, sure, 1876.
Doubtful, probably Republican. 1913
"Doubtfl, probably Democratic, 30.
Doubtful, no advantage now, Al.
Total, 531.
an the last classification are in.
cluded Ohio and Wisconsin.
New York, believed to be absolutely
certain for Hughes by every skilled
political observer who has been in
touch with real conditions in New
York, and Indiana, which is certain
to be Republican in the judgment of
every Republican who has had any
thing to do with the Indiana campaign,
are put down as doubtful, with Re-
publican tendencies.

Child Forgets Speech
When She Meets Wilson

A very small girl shook hands with
the President of the United States yes

little Emily Gallagher from her circle
of envious companions and initiated
her in the fine art of addressing presi-
dents. Emily is seven years old, ana
when Mrs. Baxter asked her about her
political convictions she said she was
for Wilson.
There were some fifty or sixty more
little Emiles and Williams and Sam
uels in the party. They all carried ar
tifcial flowers, which they solemnly
thrust into President Wilson's hand
as a symbol of the sweatshop labor
from which they have been saved by
the passage of the child labor bill.
The children and their mothers had
a special car attached to the Woodrow
Wilson special. which left the Pennsyl-
vania Station at l o'clock yesterday.
In the second car were members of the
Women's Democratic County Commit

boasts that hers is the only Tammany

In the other cars and scattered all

other Democratic women. Miss Grace

Mrs Camille Beerbohm carried another
banner inscribed with "Clubwomen

small professional groups.

COMMISSIONERS OPINIONS
NOT ASKED BY CONGRESS
Borland Provision Would Affect
About $50 District Employees.
Many Now Work Overtime.

Congress has not asked the Commits

such request is made the District
heads are expected 10 remain silent

explaining bills thar originate in the
District building aud the estimates
which they annually transmit to Con-
sress, the Commissioners seldom trans
nit reports to Congress on bills other
than those regulars referred to them
for report. The majority of these come
from the Senate and House District
committees.
The Borland provision would affect
about 40 District employees. Many of
these. especially the engineer department
employees, who are assigned to outside
duties. work overtime. frequently en-
ceeding an eight-hour day. However it
is the consensus OF opinion of local
officials that the establishment of an
eight-hour day for the entire personnel
would not tend to increase the efficiency

with power to name committee OF
ten for the purpose of comforting with
18th street merchants for observance of
Spring Dress-Cp week.
Carl j.. Budwesky, secretary to Rep
resentative Buchanan, substituted for
the latter speaker. His theme was the
legislative efforts of Representative
Buchanan in behalf of the citizens of
the District of Columbia, and he dis
cussed the two mea sures introduced in
Congress by Representative Buchanan,
to which the organization later gave
Endorsement.
John Shugrue pointed out to Mr.. Bud
wesky that on every piece of construc-
ton in Washington the contract re-
quires that the workmen be insured;
that this is figured in the estimate of
cost. and that every workman is SO in
sured.
Mr.. BudweskX, in discussing the Blu
chanan bill to provide text books with
out cost to the pupils of the high
schools. presented Representative Blu
chanans view that education should
be entirely free; that a hardship was
worked upon the poorer pupils by the
necessity to pay for their own books,
