San Francisco, Nov. 15.-Thirty coun-
ties in California remained to be heard
from today in the official canvass Of
the election. Early returns from five
counties made the difference between
the lowest democratic elector and the
highest republican elector 5,361.
Both parties admit that big dis
crepancy must be found in order to
change the result Of the election and
this must come from the three most
populous counties--San Francisco. Los
Angeles or Alameda.
The first days work in these counties
disclosed only minor errors and such
errors were found to offset each other.
Watchers Of both parties were on hand
today when the canvass was resumed.
With 212 precincts out Of 40 Off
cis,lly counted in Alameda county,
Wilson has made a net gain Of
eighteen votes over Hughes.

Washington, Nov. 15.-Attorney Cen
eral Gregory has decided that suits by
railroads against enforcement of the
Adamson eight-hour law will be de-
Tended by the department of justice.
The defense to be presented in each
case will be worked out between Soli
citor General Davis and other depart
ment officials with United States at
torneys in various jurisdictions.
The department was unable to de-
termine today whether it was necessa-
ry to defend each of the suits begun or
whether the roads would be willing to
make a test suit Of one case. No word
has come from the roads and if such a
proposal is not made each suit will be
defended. Reports that the railroad
men had considered suggestion that
the Adamson law be suspended for
thirty days has met with the statement
that the attorney general has no such
