Wenck's Experience and Other
Things Have Soured New
York Executive
FRAWLEY BILL DOOMED;
THERE LITTLE WONDER
Promoters and Managers As
e Much to Blame AS the Ring
Principals
Ev RI. C.. HAMILTON

UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
A. New York, March Ex-Governor
Whitman of New York is determined
that before the close of this year box
ing will be kicked completely out of
New York. His determination, he de-
cleared in recent informal discussions,
is unalterabe. He is opposed to the
game from every angle.
~ Governor Is Soured
The unfaSorable publicity the game
has received in this city, the unfavor-
able and unsavOry bouts that have
been pulled off from time to time,
Fred Wenck's unfortunate experience
with the not END OF the 500 check
and several other things, have soured
Whitman completely.
Wencks conduct in office was very
bad and it was the straw that broke
the governors back He announced
that Wenck would DO removed from
Office and then let it be known in am
unofficial way that no one would be
appointed to replace the deposed
chairman Of the boxing commission
Many Things Looked Bad
! Wenck did several things while in
office that looked bad, among them
being his feat Of borrowing $500 from
the manager of fighter no small
stunt. He repaid the money by Frank
lin B. Lord, the governors represent
alive who heard the evidence in
charges brought by Harry Pollok
John White and others, held that
Wenck acted in disrespect to the dig
nifty of his office in asking for loan.
AS if this were not enough, Wenk
permitted his office to, be used on NOR
than one occasion as headquarters for
visiting managers of boxers who were
to appar in New York rings. Not
only did he do that, but he even re-
commended a hustlng young manag-
er Of fight club to a former man
ager of Fred Fulton. who asked re-
garding the stability of clubs. He
also Endorsed a note for $4,000 to help
this manager stage a match.
To End Game for All Time
These things were bad, they nettled
the governor, and he was determined
to end the game for all time when the
evidence was all in. Nothing can
stop it in New York. The Frawley
bill is doomed and there is little
wonder. The way promoters and
managers, not to speak Of the boxers,
have treated their liberties is enough
to shame anything into hiding.
And in passing. it is enough to pro,
woke a giggle to witness the fact
that in getting revenge on Wenck, for
refusing license to conduct bouts
ia Madison Square Garden, Harry
Pollock gave a perfect impersona.
;:tion of the man who cut off his nose
to spite his face.

ing Of Lifeboats
WHITE FLAG GETS
GERMAN SHELL
Every Living Thing Merci-
lessly Slaughtered By
The Huns
NV Annociated Press.l

London, Nov. 6. - (By Canadian
Press Limited. AN appalling story
Of cold -blooded massacres by Ger
mans of crews OF British North sea
conveys in a recent battle, is told by
the Norwegian newspapers. The
Tidenstejn says the German cruisers
were observed at 6 o'clock in the
morning and were thought TO be
British vessels, but at 7 o'clock when
there was more light, they suddenly
began shooting and the convoy was
terrified to see the British destroyer
at the stern OF the convoy begin to
sink although 1t fought to the end.
The German cruisers, after signalling
the vessels to stop, advanced on each
side OF the convoy, which they swept
with all their guns at range Of less
than 200 yards.
The German destroyers came up
and helped to spread death and
destruction on the defenseless ships,
shells falling thick and fast. The
Germans were not content to sink
the ships but shelled the lifebOats
and every living thing coming their
way was mercilessly slaughtered
The survivors owed their lives to the
high sea which was running, making
the boats a difficult mark.
British Destroyer Attacks.
In the midst of the massacre
another British destroyer came up and
Immediately attacked, but was soon
sunk in the unequal struggle. The
German fiotilla then cruised back
ward and forward among the sink
ing steamers, pouring a fresh and
terrible rain OF shells at a range OF
100 yards. One shell went through
the Swedish ship Wirndar, exploding
in the Hfeboat on the other side and
killing all it's occupants, fourteen
men and three women.
The other lifeboat rowed back to
rescue the captain and two wait
resses from the wreck. A shell
struck the boat and killed Ave OF her
occupants, only the mate escaping
by swimming. The Wirndar was a
mass Of flames and the two girls
jumped into the sea- The captain
was saved by clinging to the wreck
age. AS the two young women were
sinking, an English ship hoisted the
white flag. The answer Of the Ger
mans was a shot which killed both
girls. Twelve Of another ship had
Just gotten into a life boat when a
shell killed them all.

TAGLIAMENTO
is But FIRST
DEFENSE Line
Has Already Served Use
full Purpose In Gaining
Time For Italians
CROSSING HAS
BEEN F0RESEEN
Line Chosen BY General
Cadorna For Final Stand
Not Yet Indicated

Italian Headquarters In, Northern
Italy, Monday, Nov. 5. - (By The
Associated Press. )-The crossing of
the Tagliamento at Pinzano by a
considerable force of the enemy
should not be surprise as this has
been foreseen from the heavy pres
sure the Austro Germans were con-
.centrating on the Italian left wing.
The River Tagliamento is only one
OF a series of defenses. Its main pur-
pose was to retard the enemy
advance and to gain time for the
Italians in which to rehabilitate and
recbncentrate. f
The Tagliamento has served that
useful purpose and the enemy now
is faced by another main line of de-
fense and other water courses. What
line the Italians have chosen for
their final stand cannot be indicate
ed.
Two theories prevail concerning
the outcome of the present opera
tions. One is that the Italian army
will concentrate along a chosen line
with the French and British rein-
forcements. The other is that the
Austro Germans will not push on
much further because OF the coming
winter.
General Cadorna is using strong
measures to restore the efficiency OF
his troops and will repress sternly
the few who falter. An order posted
today warns all those belonging to
the modified forces that if they fail
to report within five days they will
be treated. as deserters in the face
of the enemy. Indications are that
the strong measures adopted are
having the effect OF restoring normal
conditions rapidly.

Keep American Flag Over
CityHalI" Is Mitchel's
Final Plea
CBy Associated Press.)

New York. Nov. 6.-New York is
holding its Quadrennial mayoralty
election today. Fair weather that
ushered in the day led to predictions
that record breaking vote would be
polled. OF the ss6.sO9 voters who
registered, II was expected that Ut
least SIS. 900 would cast their ballots.
The polls opened at o'clock and
will close at 5 o'clock this afternoon.
In other years the result of a
mayoralty election here was known
within a few hours after the closing
Of the polls. but an element OF doubt
has entered into the situation this
year owing to the delay that will
arise in counting the vote Of about
$4,000 soldiers and sailors In military
service. Many close political observ-
ers believe that the result may hinge
upon the vote of these lighting men.
now stationed in training camps on
this side and overseas.
All Claim Victory,
At the close of a campaign almost
unparalleled for its bitterness and
many sensational charges and coun-
er-charges, campaign managers of
the four parties issued statements
claiming victory. The Fusion party
predicted that Mayor John Purroy
Mitchell would be reelected by a
plurality Of at least $4,000; Tammany
Hall claimed that County Judge John
f. Hyland, Democrat, would be elect
ed by 10000 plurality; former State
Senator William M. Bennett, the RE
publican nominee, who defeated
serted he would get 275,O00 votes;
and Morris Hillquit, the wealthy
candidate Of the Socialist party, was
certain that he would poll 100000
votes.
Mayor Mitchell. in his final word to
the voters, said:
To-day we prove our right to keep
the American flag over City Hall.
Hylan shall not tear IL down. Hill
quit shall not stain it with surrend-
err.
Judge Hylan reiterated his charges
that Mayor MitcheFs hackers tried to
steal" the primary and charged that
"they are planning to make another
attempt in the election booths.
Morris Hillquit, who announced
that he would not buy Liberty bonds.
claimed that the issues were a
''humanized city government; the
of democratic institu-
0ns and an early. rational ana dur
4 Eorld peace.
enator Bennett said the voters
zen aroused by a. "culmination

lminal acts by the Mitchell men,.
