Voting Machines
Urged by City Club
Primary Frauds Lead to Re-
quest for Apparatus Re-
jected in 1915

As result of the recent primary
frauds, the City Club requested yester-
day that voting machines. rejected after
experiments in 1915. 6e gwen another
trial IN the coming election.
Nelson s. Spencer. president Of the
City Club. has written the Board Of
Elections, in part. as follows:
"In view Of the recent demonstra-
tion of inaccuracy on the part Of Off
Gals in polling places. the City Club
deems this proper time TO recommend
that another trial Of voting machines
be made at the annual election in this
city.
1--WE understand that the mechanical
defects which caused the errors re-
ferred 20 in your annual report for
1915 have been romedied. and we there
fore believe that your board would be
justified in giving this matter serious
cons. Iteration.
I'VE wish it distinctly understood
that we are not urging the general intro
auction Of voting machines, but only a
sufficiently comprehensive test to de-
tcrminc whether or not the recent i'm
provemcnts have made the general in
PRODUCTION OF any machine desirable.
We believe that trial Of not more
than ten maShines Of various types
would determine whether or not any
TYNE ia generally adaptable"

Prohteering Mills
Can Get No Wheat

Flour mills which are being operated
for excessive profits in defiance of the
regulations of the United States Food
Administration will be dealt with sum-
marily. This announcement was made
yesterday by James F. Bell, chairman
of the milling division, who disclosed
the fact that rccalcitrant mills have mad
their supplies OF wheat cut off.
After prais!ng the majority of mill
owners for their cheerful cooperation
IN the governments scheme OF food
control Chairman Bel said:
THE action of few mills in taking
advantage of the situation to ask high
prices and t. accumulate profits IN ex-
cess Of those indicated by the food -
ministration is creating an unfayorable
impression and reflects upon the integ-
rity Of the entire milling plan.
Wills should be warned that the &C
emulation Of profits at this time, in
authorization Of unfavorable periods to
follow. must be discontinued. We do
not propose to have few mills jeop-
ardize the whole, and where specific in
stances are named we will deal with
them summarily."

By BRIGGS

PLAINFIELD, n. j., Oct. IA tour
ing car in which Newark chauffeur
is said to have been "joyriding" with
friends crashed into a motor van early
to-day on North Avenue near Garwood,
killing two men and severely iniuring
six. Two of the injured may be fatally
hurt
John Rosoncranz, chief of police, was
in communication with j. I. Castle, r.,
of sSS South Nineteenth Street, Newark,
who said he did not know his car was
in use. with Charles Meyers, Mr..
Castles chauffeur, Alexander Brockt,
Of Harrison, and Robert Brandt, of 50
Norwood Avenue, Newark. were N the
front seat. Meyers is said to have been
driving at high speed.
Meyers and Brockt were killed. The

N. Y. Soldiers Ballots
Are Found Defective
Names of Some City Candi-
dates Omitted From $4,000
Already Sent to Europe

Twenty-Five thousand ballots which
already have been sent 10 Europe for
the men of the expeditionary forces
were discovered yesterday to be so
much fuel for post-election controver-
sizes and contests. On them Mayor
Mitchell IS set down as the only Fusion
candidate, and the name Of Magistrate
Corrigan, who is running as an moe
pendent for the office of District At
torney Of New York County, does not
appear at all, nor does that of Martin
Mayer, of Queens.
The only Independents whose names
are on the ballots are Mayor Mitchell
and Edward T. OToughlin, of Brook
lyn. The only emblem opposite the
Mayors name is that Of the Fusion
party. and nowhere on the ballot does
the emblem of the City Democracy az
pear.
The unofficial explanation was made
that the ballots were printed in haste
and that the Secretary Of State, who
is responsible for them, had used all
the information which was furnished
by the Board Of Elections. This eX-
PLANTATION did not clarity the situa-
tion completely, for the City Democ-
racy petitions for Mayor Mitchell and
the other Fusion candidates were the
first ones filed. and those for Magis-
trate Corrigan were filed more than a
week before court rulings in the
Mitchel-Bennett contest permitted the
printing Of the soldiers ballots. 1t
was said that there still was time 10
print ballots here and get them across
the Atlantic for election.
il also developed that no court order
has been served upon the Board of
Elections directing the substitution Of
William VI Bennett's name for that of
Mitchell as Republican candidate for
Mayor Consequently, in the eyes Of
the board, Mitchell is still the Republi-
can nominee. The order which Mr..
Bennett obtained was directed solely
TO the Secretary of State.
Before Mr.. Bennett can get his name
on the ballot he must get court order
specifying the districts in which the
change Of the vote at the primaries IS
to be made. There is doubt as TO
whether the Board of Elections can
make the change.

Heroes of Revolt in Yucatan
Are Trapped by Vengeful Husband
Americans Who Aided Rebel Governor Of Yucatan Be
trayed by Man Who Says His
Wife Was Stolen

cded he had better make hay while the
sun shone, and raised a forced loan Of
100000 pesos. OF which 100000 was
in bullion. lie is said TO nave taken
state funds amounting 20 $4,000.
Argumendo made his way 70 New
York, and arrived here in April with
about 2.000,0 goo pesos in bullion, most
Of the gold from the Yucatan treasury.
Nichols and Ladner say they were
taken away from Yucatan by the L.
$. s. Des Moiues. A few weeks later
the Mexican authorities discovered
Argumendo in hiding here, but his
ever ready assistants warned hlm N
time. lie left the city. it is charged,
with as much Of his wealth as he could
conveniently carry. He was compelled
TO leave large strong box III the
safety deposit vaults in the Woolworth
Building. One report placed this
amount at only $4,000 and another a..
$S5, 600.
The Mexican government was not
long in locating this, and through Sam
uel Brand, of 253 Broadway, obtained It
on a judgment. Nichols and Ladner,
however, instituted a replevin suit
against the American Surety Company,
trustee for the fund for the Mexican
government. claiming that Argumendo
had given il to them for enabling HIM
to escape from Merida. They had re
turned it 10 him. they said, TO bring
out Of Mexico for them, and he had re-
fused TO give it back, saying that "af-
fairs of state" prevented 1t at that time.
They based their claim on receipt
written in Spanish and bearing the sig
nature of Argumendo, which three
handwriting experts declared was gen
uine. II was written on a letterhead of
the Grand Hotel at Merida.
Woman Enters the Case
They Won the suit, but in the mean
fhile the Mexican officials were in
formed that there was something amiss
with the suit, and they employed Brand
and the Burns Detective Agency TO
make a thorough investigation.
Then the woman entered the case in
the person of the wife Of former
manager of "A New York hotel. The
husband is said to have made confess
sion on last Wednesday TO Assistant
District Attorney Abrams that he had
forged the signature Of Argumendo to
the receipt. tie said his motive for in
forming was the fact that one Of the
indicted men had alienated the aifec-
tions of his wife.
The informer said the signature was
obtained by placing the genuine sigma
ture, which was in the possession Of
Nichols and Ladner. under a piece Of
glass over which the forged document
was laid, ard. by means of high
power electric ramp ncld beneath the
contriyance. the tracing was compare
lively easy after a little practice.

Hoboken Resorts Defy
Sunday Law, Says Foe
Only Those Near Docks Are
Closed, Anti-Saloon League
Official Asserts

Hoboken saloons ware running wide
open Yesterday in defiance OF the law
and the reported agreement with FED
oral officials, according to Samuel VII
son. assistant state superintendent and
law enforcement officer Of the New Jer-
sew Anti-Saloon League. In the course
Of his investigation Mr.. Wilson visited
about fifty saloons. lie entered the
three which are nearest 20 the City
Hall and police headquarters, as well
"a every saloon on Willow Street, be-
tween Newark and Sixth streets.
For two blocks back from the river
front section, which has been taken over
bv the government for military purposes,
he found the saloons closed. screens
were down, giving clear view 81 the
barroom. and so far as Mr.. wilson
could discover there was no attempt 70
do business. Beyond the two c"
limit he found, he said, that the slogan
was business as usual Inc ohiy
concession to the law was the suostltu-
ton of side doors for front doors. Inc
places were crowded, he SAID, ana
drinks were sold openly across the
bars.
Mr.. Wilson sent the following teie-
gram TO President Wilson:
IF postponement Of the enforcement
Of the half-mile dry zone order aoou;
embarkation piers is caused by prom
ises of police and salocnkeepers TO
enforce and obey the state law they
have failed to make good. The state
law requires all saloons TO be closed
to-day and screens open. Have just
personally inspected saloons on River
Hudson, Washington, Bloomfield, PARK
Garden and Willow streets. On River
and Hudson streets the law IS appar'
emily obeyed, but on all ether streets
saloons are wide open and packed WIN
customers, chiefly foreigners, and no
screens are open. The saloons nearest
20 the Office of the chief of police are
open. Apparently the city authorities
and the liquor authorities have amend
ed YOUR half-mile zone order to two
blocks and have completely nuIlIhed
the state laws. Let no such men DE
trusted"
