that such a statement is absolutely
untrue. 1t is a fact, however, that
unless under orders from my govern
ment, it is outside of my duty limit to
oppose any movement on the part of

The celebration on Saturday was
brought about by telegraphic stories
circulated in the town by the United
Chinese Society in printed papers
that the governor of Canton had been
assassinated and that that capital city
was in the hands of the Revolutionist
party. These stories would only
amuse non-C Chinese who read them,
but worry many who have families
and property in Canton as matter
of fact. On than day innumerable
telephone calls ariA personal visits
were made at the cohsulate inquiring
for true Information, and many made
requests that / should send cable

truth. This request has been COM
piled with. and late yesterday evening
i received a cable reply saying that
Canton is quiet and the paper stories
are absolutely untrue. For humanity

The townships are Walker, California, Union, Clifton, Hardin, East Fork, Cadron and Benedict. Outside Cad ron township the vote was close, and a majority of 13 was against the proposition.

DEMOCRATS FEAR
 BALLOT JUGGLING DELAYS ARE SUSPICIOUS
Republicans Suspected of Trickery in Holding Back Minnesota
 Returns.

Washington, Nov. 9.-As the sus- pense is prolonged because of slow returns from number of states mostly in the west-the suspicion deepens that Republican managers are hoping to profit in the confusion by manipulation. But the Democrats are wise and every precaution is being taken to prevent the stealing of the election from Woodrow Wilson. There will be no repetition of the Tilden-Hays affair There is talk
 here tonight of the election being thrown into the House for settlement, and certainly it will be decided there If the Republicans are caught trying to steal it.
 The Democrats are desperately de-
 termined to get all they are entitled to from Tuesdays election, but no juggling of the returns will be coun-
 tenanced. The holding back of the
 returns from Duluth, Minn., has given
 rise to the most suspicion. The result
 in Duluth should have been announc-
 ed by 10 o'clock Tuesday night, but
 up to this hour it has been impos- sible to get the returns.
 The city is the center of the great
 ore industry which is controlled by
 the United States Steel Corporation,
 whose money and influence are said
 to be active against the reelection of President Wilson.
 At 8 o'clock last night Wilson was
 leading in Minnesota by 4,326, with
 the unreported counties in the north
 ern section of the state, where the
 president has been leading all day.
 The conclusion is unacceptable that he
 will carry the state unless there is
 some trickery perpetrated by jug
 gling the Duluth vote. This vote is
 believed to be held back for that ne- farious purpose.

Partial Returns From 67 Counties Indicate Defeat of No. l3-No.
 II Running Close.
Arkansas Gazette, Nov. 9.

Arkansas Gazette, Nov. 9.
 With partial returns available from c of the 75 counties in the state last night, the only perceptible change ir the results of the acts and amend. ments over those of Tuesday night were lessening of the leads for Act No. l and Amendments No. 12 and No. 14, and reversal of the lead for Amendment no. 13. The returns, representing, it was believed, near ly one-half the total vote, indicated.
 That Act No. ?, which would sub- stitute local option for prohibition, will be defeated by vote of at least two to one. The vote on this act was heavier than on any other.
 That Amendment No. 13, the initi- ative and referendum, probably will be defeated. It was running behind the returns received Tuesday and the vote for it was considerably less than a majority of the total vote cast.
 That Amendment No. 12, the school amendment, probably will carry. While it was not leading proportion ately by the same majority as on Tuesday night it was evident that it will receive more votes than those against it and probably more than a majority of the total vote cast.
 While Amendment Mo- IA, the road bond measure, was not leading by as great a majority proportionately as o nthe first returns, it had heavy lead and probably will be adopted.
 The returns received indicated that the total vote cast will be around 130,000 and that President Wilson's plurality will be between 35,000 and 40,000. The majorities for Dr. c. H.. Brough, Democratic candidate for governor, and other Democratic can didates for state offices, will be ap- proximately the same.

Later Returns Make No Change in
 Vote on Candidates and Measures at Tuesdays Election.

With two townships-Benton and Enola-still unreported, the returns from Tuesdays election in Faulkner county received since yesterday after noon have only increased the majori- ties as given in Wednesdays Log Cabin Democrat. California and Pa larm townships voted strongly against the road tax, but this was offset by other townships and tax is certainly voted by approximately two to one. Every township reporting since Wed nesday gave increased majorities against No. 9 Bristol and California townships, however, gave majorities against Amendment No. 12, though the proposition will carry in the coun- ty by probably 1,200 majority.
 Of the candidates with opposition H. M. Jacoway, Democratic nominee for congress from the Fifth district, is leading the ticket by good mar gin. His vote, with two townships missing, is 2,137 to 725 for McCon- nell. President Wilson's vote is 1918, Judge Kirby's is 1890, Dr. Brough's is 1918, and Judge Woods is 2,O34.
 The official canvass will probably be made by the board of election com missioners here tomorrow. The totals on contested propositions and officers with the exception of Enola and Ben ton townships are as follows:
 Amendments: For No. 12 1894, against 87S; for No. 13 1871, against ,347; for No. IA 1,462, against 1,294. Acts: For No. 2,027, against 684; for No. 2 729, against 2,193.
