at midnight the President was leading

Conceding West Virginia, New

less than the required majority. With

In California Republican Chairman

New York, Nov. 10.-Congressional
election returns, which were nearly
completed last night, assure President
Wilson in the forthcoming administra-
tion Democratic Senate, but, with
five districts still undecided, the best
that the Democrats could claim at
midnight was a plurality of four votes
in the House. Upon the basis of re-

elected 215 members of the House and
the Republicans 211. Until late hour
the Democrats had plurality of six

eating the defeat of Representative

In addition there has been elected
one Independent, one Socialist, one

Four districts in West Virginia, two
of them normally Democratic and two
Republican, and one district in New
Mexico are still undecided If these
districts do not change the Democrats

their own husbands and led into lives of
immortality. Assistant District Attorney

nesses in the Grand Jury investigation of
the vice trust now in progress.

agents themselves that men hard pressed
for money, and seemingly lacking all ideas
of morality have come to them and begged
that work be given their wives in dis
orderly resorts" said Smith. ''In one in.
stance know of the husband was actually
grateful to the white SLAYER who placed his
wife I'm a resort"
TO avoid possible chances OF discovery
the vice trust organized a string of dlsor-
derly houses in New York and nearby
States. shifting girls from one town to an
other when the police became active.
The present investigation Smith said
is producing more and more evidence each
day of colusion between white slayers and
members of the police force who had black
mailed and extorted protection, money from
both the white slave agents and their vic
