81 Per Cent of the Sum Asked-All
Districts Exceed Quota.

Washington, Nov. 8.-Americans re-
sponded to the call for a second Lib
erty war loan by subscribing $4,617,-
532, 300, an oversubscription by 81 per
cent of the $3,O00000,000 asked, and

100000 maximum fixed by the treas
ury.

night, IL days after the close of the
nationwide bond-selling campaign,
showed that every federal reserve dis
trict exceeded its quota and 100000
persons subscribed in the big war
financial operation, which Secretary
McAdoo described as the greatest ever
attempted by any government.
Half of the oversubscribed sum will
be accepted, making the SEXUAL total
of bonds to be issued $3,80S, 766, 80.
Ninety per cent of the subscribers
will receive the amount for which
they bargained.

ports that a third loan would be

U. S. PATROL SHIP SUNK
Officer and Fl Men Missing After Con-
verted Yacht AIcedo Is Torpedoed
in the War Zone.

Washington, Nov. IAN American
patrol vessel has been sunk in the dan
ger zone with the loss of one officer
and twenty men.
The navy department announced
that the converted yacht Alcedo was
torpedoed at 1 80 a. m. November s..
The official announcement reads:
"One officer and twenty men are
missing. The ship sank within four
minutes after she was struck. Several
vessels were searching for possible
survivors at the time the report was
made. The Alcedo carried seven Off
GERS and So men,"
The Alcedo was one of the largest
and most palatial private yachts afloat.

chased by George w. Childs Drexel Of

Peat Rons of Ireland.

Ireland possesses 25,000,000 acres Of
peat bog-one-seventh the total area
Of the island. Much of this peat is
concentrated in the center of the coun-
try, in the Bog of Allen, but there are
also large tracts in other localities.
To utilize this peat, not merely for
domestic use, but also for power pur-
poses, is a problem which has exer-
cised the minds Of prominent Irishmen
for many years, and the department
Of scientific and industrial research
appointed a committee, with Sir John
Griffiths of Dublin as chairman to In
vestigate the whole question. Some
successful attempts have already been
made in Ireland to deal with the sub
stance on a commercial basis, but any
efforts to utilize the deposits must all
ways have regard to three circum-
stances-that peat contains and re-
tains a large amount of water; that,
compared with other fuels, it has
low calorific value, and that it is ex-
tremely bulky, involving a high cost
of carriage.

was declared by international experts
to be the greatest diplomatic achieve

tivities of her subjects.
Secretary Lansing announced as a
result of the "open door" agreement

the United States in suppressing Prus-
sian militarism and that military, ma
val and economic program had been
discussed.
Mr.. Lansing would give no details of
his agreement of war cooperation ex-
cept that a naval plan in the Pacific
had been made. The United States has
wanted Japan to patrol the Pacific to
release American warships for Euro
pean and Atlantic coast operations.
1t was stated the agreement is "a
mere understanding" not a treaty or
alliance, and includes no concessions
on Japanese immigration to this coun-
try.
The agreement does not supersede.
but extends the Root-Takahira agree
ment of November 80, 1908.

WILSON IN PROCLAMATION
SAYS WAR YIELDS NATION
President Designates November 20 as
Day of Thanksgiving and Prayer
Sees New National Spirit.

Washington, Nov. S.-President Will
sin issued this proclamation:
at has long been the honored GUS
tom of our people to turn in the fruit
full autumn of the year in praise and
thanksgiving to Almighty God for his
many blessings and mercies to us as a
nation. That custom we can follow
now even in the midst of the tragedy
of a world shaken by war and immeas-
urable disaster, in the midst of sorrow
and great peril, because even amidst
the darkness that has gathered about
us we can see the great blessings God
has bestowed upon us, blessings that
are better than mere peace of mind
and prosperity of enterprise.
''We have been given the opportu-
nifty to serve mankind as we once
served ourselves in the great day of
our declaration Of independence by
taking up arms against tyranny that
threatened to master and debase men
everywhere and joining with other free
peoples in demanding for all the ma
tons of the world what we then de-
manded and obtained for ourselves. In
this day of the revelation of our duty
not only to defend our own rights as
nation, but to defend also the rights
of freemen throughout the world,
there has been vOuchsafed us in full
and inspiring measure the resolution
and spirit of united action.
"We have been brought to one mind
and purpose. A new vigor of COM
mon counsel and common action has
been revealed. We should especially
thank God that in such circumstances,
in the midst of the greatest enterprise
the spirits of men have ever entered
upon, we have, if we but observe
reasonable and practically economy,
abundance with which to supply the
needs of those associated with us, as
well as our own.
"a new light shines about US. The
great duties of new day awaken
new and greater national spirit in US.
We shall never again be divided or
wonder what stuff we are made of.
"And while we render thanks for
these things, let US pray Almighty God
that in all humbleneSs of spirit we
may look always to him for guidance;
that we may be kept constant in the
spirit and purpose of service that by
his grace our minds may be directed
and our hands strengthened, and that
in his good time liberty and peace and
the comradeship of q common justice
may be vouchsafed all the nations of
the earth.
Wherefore I, Woodrow Wilson.
president of the United States of
America, do hereby designate Thurs
day, the Goth day of November next,
as day of thanksgiving and prayer,
and invite the people throughout the
land to cease upon that day from their
ordinary occupations and in their sew
eral homes and places of worship to
render thanks to God, the great ruler
of nations.
"By the President:
WOODROW WILSON,
ROBERT LANSING,

j. S. MEN REACH
ENGLAND FOR BIG
WAR CONFERENCE
Delegation Headed by Col. House
Arrives Safe.
MEET TO BE HELD IN PARIS
Gathering Is to Be "War Conference"
With Object of Co-Ordinating All
Fighting Forces Against
Common Enemy.

Washington. Nov. S.-America'S mis-
sion to the allies conference in Paris
has arrived safely in England.
Announcement to this effect was
made on Wednesday at the state de-
partment, with the comment that the
gathering is to be war conference"
with the object of co-ordinating all the
fighting forces against the common
enemy.
Headed by Colonel House.
The personnel of the mission in
cludes:
Col. Edward NJ. House of New York,
Admiral w. S. Benson, chief of naval
operations; Gen. Tasker H. Bliss, chief
of staff of the United States; Oscar T..
Crosby, assistant secretary of the
treasury Vance o. Mccormick, chair
man of the war trade board; Balm
bridge Colby, United States shipping
board; DIR. AlonzO e. Taylor, repre-
senting the food controller; Thomas
Nelson Perkins, representing the prior
ity board Gordon Auchincloss, as sec
rotary.
Outlines Parey's Aims.
To set all speculation concerning the
mission at rest, Secretary Lansing is
sued the following statement:
1.-THE conference is essentially war
conference with the object of perfect
ing a more complete coordination Of
the activities of the various nations en-
gagged in the conflict and a more COM
prehensive understanding Of their re-
spective needs in order that the joint
efforts of the co-belligerents may at
tain the highest war efficiency.
''While definite program has not
been adopted, it may be assumed that
the subjects to be discussed will en-
brace not only those pertaining to
the financial, commercial, economic
and other phases of the present situa-
ton which are of vital Importance to
the successful prosecution of the war.
There will undoubtedly be an effort
to avoid any conflict of interests among
the participants and there is every
reason to anticipate that the result will
be a fuller cooperation and conse-
Guently much higher efficiency and a
more vigorous prosecution of the war.
'The United States, in the employ
ment of it's man power and material re-
sources, desires to use them to the
greatest advantage against Germany.
To Regulate Ally Demands.
by general survey of the whole
situation and a free discussion of the
needs Of all, the approaching confer
ence will undoubtedly be able to give
the demands of the several govern
ments their true perspective and
proper place in the general plan for
the conduct of the war
ut is the earnest wish of this gov
eminent to employ its military and
naval forces and it's resources and
energies where they will give the great
est returns in advancing the common
cause.

HYLAN ELECTED
MAYOR OF GOTHAM
Mitchell Poor Second and HiIIquit
Third.
VICTOR DEFENDS LOYALTY
HyIan Declares He Backs President
and Country in War With Ger
many-Women Win the
Ballot


New York, Nov John f. Hylan.
a county judge of Kings county, was
elected mayor of New York on Tues
day by a plurality of more than 14O,-
600.
He carried with him the entire
Democratic city ticket, including
Charles L. Craig for comptroller, Al
fred E. Smith, now sheriff of New
York county, for president of the board
of aldermen, and Edward Swami for
district attorney.
Indications are that the Democrats
will have a majority in the board of es-
innate which controls the expenditure
of the city funds.
Mitchell Poor Second.
Mayor John P Mitchell, who sought
reelection as a fusion candidate, al
though not formally nominated by any
party, was poor second in the race.
With only Y districts missing out of
2,06S, his vote was 145, 459, compared
with 28S, 435 for Hylan.
Morris Hillquit, the Socialist candi-
date, about whom rallied most of the
radical elements in the city and all
thise who favor an immediate negOti-
ated peace, stood third, with $780,
and William M. Bennett, who unex-
pectedly won the Republican primary
nomination from Mayor Mitchell, was
fourth with 51,956
Judge Hylan's first act after being
assured of his election was to make
this statement:
1.-THE result speak for itself. The
people have spoken, and in no uncer-
tain manner. Democracy has once
more been restored to power.
II want to make it plain to the
world that there was no issue of
Americanism or loyalty involved, so
far as l am concerned. There could
be none, for 1 am as good an Ameri-
can as any man, as loyal to my flag,
as loyal to my country and as firm
and determined in support of every
act of the government in this war as
any man.
Stands Behind President.
II ask the editors of the newspapers
prominence to this declaration, so
that there may not go abroad to the
people of this country who have no
appreciation of our local situation the
slightest intimation that the question
of the war or the war policy of Presi-
dent Wilson and the United States
government are in the slightest way
involved.
"My first utterance in this cam
paign in response to question put by
reporter was that / stood uncom-
promisingly behind the president in
support of the acts and policies of my
country, and that the war must be
fought to a conclusion which would
bring an honorable peace to Amer
ica''
Suffrage Wins in New York.
Returns from approximately three
fifths the election districts of New
York state give the woman suffrage
amendment to the constitution of the
commonwealth majority of 52,092.
That it has been carried is virtually
conceded on all sides.
Figures from 1922 districts out of
5,772 in the state follow:
Yes, 409,132; no, 357,040.
Seven hundred and sixty election
districts out of 2,06S in New York
city give:
Yes, 113,S6S; no, S4,358.
