WILSON HOPEFUL
OF MEDICATION
But Strain Shows in Spite
of Assurances from
Managers
from star Correspondent, Of The Ttibuns.l

tr,ou star Correspondent Of The Tribunsl
Long Branch, n. j., Nov. 6.-Shadow
Lawn tonight is tense with expectancy
~ to-morrow's result. Although Presl-
dent Wilson is still confident Of "vindi-
cation by the great American jury as
he puts it, the strain Of the remaining
hours has begun tc tell upon him. De
snite the assurances of his managers
that there is to be Democratic land
slide" the President realizes the close
ness of the contest and is anxious.
All day to-day the President was in
touch with Secretary Tumulty, either
over the wire 70 the executive Offices
or in personal consultation. With I'M
usual care he went over the kilograms
that continue to pour In from all parts
of the country predicting his victory,
while he showed the greatest interest
in the reports of political conditions
received daily by Secretary Tumulty.
Reassuring as these were, both the
President and Secretary Tumulty real
lied that still there might somewhere
be a slip-up among the prophets.
Will Vote in Princeton
Early tomorrow the President and
Mrs. Wilson will motor to Princeton,
where the President will cast his vote.
The rest Of the day he plans to spend
quietly at Shadow Lawn, where, sur
rounded by members of his family and
relatives, he will receive the returns.
A special wire from the executive Of
fees at Asbury Park has been installed,
which will relay the returns as they
come from Democratic headquarters in
New York.
The summer White House Offices were
almost empty to-day owing to the
exodus of clerks and stenographers re-
turning to their homes to aid the Will
son cause by their votes. Secretary
Tumulty will go to Jersey City early in
the morning. No one has taken the
campaign more 10 heart than the Presl-
dents chief assistant, who has suf-
fered and exulted as political tempera-
lures have varied from warn" TO
chilly" And tonight he is worried
by the fact that, notwithstanding straw
ballots and Mccormick predictions, bet
tings odds continue in Hughes's favor.
Will Return This Week
No plans have been considered by the
President for the contingency Of his
defeat. He has refused to entertain
the suggestion. His programme calls
for the removal of the executive Of
fees and his return to Washington at
the end of this week.
President Wilson was asked to-day
to include in his Thanksgiving procla-
nation an appeal to the people Of the
United States to aid European war suf-
ferers. The request was made by Ig-
mace Paderewski and delegation rep
resenting organizations interested in
relief work. The committee left under
the impression that their request would
be granted.
Charles S. mcfarland, general sec
rotary of the Federal Council Of
Churches Of Christ in America, and
Mr.. Paderewski also presented a me-
mortal urging the President to contrib
ute his efforts to relieve suffering in
Poland. The memorial was signed by
Cardinal Farley and Rabbi Joseph Sill
verman, of New York, and other men
representing the Protestant, Roman
Catholic and Jewish faiths.

FOUR MEETINGS CLOSE
WHITMAN'S CAMPAIGN
Perfect, but Strenuous" Says
Governor, Predicting Reelection

well, this is the end Of perfect,
II strenuous, campaign" said Governor
Whitman as he finished his last speech
of the night at the Palace Theatre,
l35th Street, near Fifth Avenue. "And
if larger crowds and moro enthusiastic
audiences than that which greeted me
two years ago mean anything | will
poll bigger plurality than did when
elected Governor"
The Governor spoke at four meetings
last night, repeating at all but one the
arguments he has used in his tour of
the state. The exception was in Car
negie Hall, where he addressed a gath
ering of the members of the Swedish
Lutheran churches who were holding
their annual Gustayus Adolphus festi-
val His speech there was entirely de-
void of politics, but the applause was
just as enthusiastic as he received at
any political rally.

FORTY DROWNED AS
| CAR SUBMERGES
Open Draw Sends Many to Death
in Boston

Boston, Nov 8.-A crowded car of
the Boston Elevated Railway plunged
through the gates Of an open draw
bridge at $50 last night and into
the 25-foot Fort Point channel. At
least forty persons, penned in the
car, are believed to have been
drowned. Only a dozen were res
cued
The drawbridge is just outside the
South Station terminal. Gerald Walsh.
motorman Of the car, declared that
the red lights were not hung on the
gates He and George McKeon the
conductor, saved themselves bv hmm
ing and were arrested. Timothy r
Shea, bridge tender, asserted that the
red lights were in place, though the
arc light above the structure might
not have been lighted.
Coming from South Boston, the car
which was a. closed one, with a mar
row door at each end. was filled with
employees of the Western Electric
company. There were many women
and few children. 1t is believed
more than fifty persons were aboard.
On approaching the drawbridge
there was no slackening in the cars
speed and 1t shot over the edge of
the embankment, which is fifteen feet
above the water, with a force which
flung the body Of the car clear of
the rear truck and into the water
The rear wheels remained on the
track.
The crash of the shattered gates
was followed by screams as the
doomed passengers were piled in the
front end of the car almost at the
same instant came the splash of the
dive

house. Already the car had vanished
beneath the water, which slapped the
!. piles and eddied from the impact.
Smears of light shimmered the Wa
ter's dark surface from street lamps,
and there was a mighty gurgling and
bubbling as the air shot upward from
the sunken car. AS Shea watched
three Or four dark shapes shot to the
surface and began to founder about.
Boats to the Rescue.
Shea called to the captain of the
towboat William G.. Williams, which
had just passed through the draw
with a lighter to cast off his tow line
and let the lighter drift back to
where the struggling figures could
reach it.
John F. McKeon and John J. Fitz-
gerald, Sheas assistants, got boats
and rowed out to where a diminishing
stream Of bubbles betrayed the rest
ing place of the car. Other row.
boats put out and several fire boats
shouldered their way through the
clustering small craft to aid in the
rescue work.
twelve who were found alive died
after being brought to shore. The
others were taken to hospitals and
probably will recover. Inside Of half
an hour the rescue work was over
and the grimmer toll with graphing
irons began. Only two bodies had
been recovered after several hours,
and it was thought it would be neces-
sary to raise the car before the 9TH
ers damned within it could be
reached
Priests Of S. Peter and Pauls
church, the Church Of the Holy Ro-
sary, st. Vincent's and st. Augustine's
fastened to the scene to administer
the last rites Of the church to rescued,
victims.
A ten-ton floating derrick from the
CharlestOWn Navy Yard was taken to
the bridge by the United States tug
IWana and preparations were made
for lifting the car. 1t was consid
cred doubtful, however, whether this
could be accomplished as according
to railroad officials the car WEIGHED
twenty tons and was believed to he
too heavy for the DERRICK

Freight EMBARGO
Says Car Shortage Has Increased
Cost Of Coal

New Haven, Nov SIN an effort to
reduce the shortage of freight cars,
which is said to be partly to blame for
the great increase in the price of coal,
the New York, New Haven and Hart
ford railroad and the Central New
England railway announced last night
embargoes on freight, which will ma
terially restrict shipments over those
lines. The embargoes will go into eff
feet at 1901 a. M, tomorrow.
Practically the only shipments
which are excepted from restrictions
are perishable freight and live stock,
freight for the United States govern
ment, freight for the two railroads in
question, news and book print paper
and coal and fuel OIL
Special restrictions are placed on
the shipping Of certain commodities,
among them being lumber, hay and
automobiles.
Due to Over-Shipping.

transportation Of the New Haven, is

Mr.. Halliday, Indicates a shortage of
cars in various parts of the country,
due to a large extent to overshipping,
