NATIONS SPIRIT NOT
REFLECTED IN REVOLT

MEMPHIS. Tenn. November S.-"The
intent and spirit of Russia as a whole
should in no way be judged by the
news >from Petrograd." declared Boris
A. Bakhmeteff. Russian ambassador to
the United States. when shown Asso-
ciated Press dispatches from London rela-
tive to the reported overthrow of the
provisional government.
Until just now 1 did not have any
personal or official information on the
subject. and therefore you cannot ex-
pect any official opinion.
But I can tell you that Petrograd
is not the whole of Russia, and has
never been. and that the spirit prevail
ing in Petrograd is not representative
of the Russian spirit as a whole.
The extremist element has always
been strong in Petrograd, but as to the
whole of Russia. the late elections in
the provincial and county local bodies
have s1owr the maximalists feeling
very weak. Less than 10 per cent Of
these extremists were elected"
The ambassador declined to comment
further on the situation, reserving his
opinion until he is supplied with Of
fetal information from his govern
ment. It. was gathered. though, that
it is his belief that Premier Kerensky
represents the real spirit of Russia.
that the reputed revolution originated
in a city which has always been a
hotbed for the extremists and. gnerally
speaking. conditions there are mostly Of
a local nature and are not indicative Of
the nation as a whole

AN ATLANTIC PORT. November g.
Information that ;, an, American shell
fred by an American naval gunner
sank Teutonic submarine in the Medi-
terranean is contained in report
made to the Navy Department by the
officers Of an American freight steam
ship which arrived here recently, it was
learned today.
The vessel of about 5000 tons gross
was returning from an italian port in
ballast after taking a cargo Of war
munitions from America to Italy. A re-
pedo was recently made public, but the
fate of her attacker was not mentioned.
The torpedo was discovered approach
ing from the starboard side an hour
before nightfall. and the crew, expect
ing an explosion, hurried to the port
rail. arriving in time to see the tor
pedo emerge from under the ship and
pass harmlessly on.
The naval gunners had remained at
their posts. The periscope Of subma-
rine appeared above the water. the
U-boat captain apparently being una
ware tina: the torpedo had gone under
the freighter, because with no cargo
she was riding high in the water.
Three American shells fired from the
gun missed the submarine, but the sixth
shot from the stern gun struck it at
the base of the periscope, according to
the officers report. There was an ex-
plosion which shattered the submarines 8
sheih and she sank with all on board.

LEAD CUT TO 327
Returns From Rural Sections
Turn Tide in Favor of
Prohibition.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CINCINNATI, Ohio, November Sat
o'clock pm. today official returns had
modified the unofficial state total and
decreased the dry lead, which had been
1852, to 327 votes. While the drys
gained in some counties on the change
from unofficial to the official count, yet
the vets profted in the majority of
them. The vote as counted at l O'Clock
stood: For prohibition, 520, PCS; against
prohibition, 519,93s.
Ohio today woke up face to face with
the extreme probability that in less
and saloonless commonwealth. This
condition forced itself upon the citi-
Gems at midnight, when the prohibition
votes, till then for many hours in a
minority, took the lead in the state
wide tabulation in such strength as to
make all but certain the success of the
prohibition amendment, which provides
that the saloon shall be barred after
April /, 1919.
Since the closing of the polls Tues
day night untll last HlluHlSHt luc puih
of the votes shifted from dry to wet
and back to dry again as reports from
various sections were tabulated.
With the drys in early AFTERNOON con-
graduating themselves that they were
safely in the lead came word that a
mistake of 10000 votes had been dis
covered in the Hamilton county (Cin-
cinnati) count. which gave the premier
place to the vets. Then the rural dis
tricts began to roll in. at first slowly,
cutting down the wet lead. and then
more swiftly. until at midnight the
drys distanced their opponents
Gov Cox took notice Of the change In
the Cincinnati returns. and instructed
the attorney general to pay strict at
tention to developments before the
county election board.
While New York suffragists were cell
ebrating their victory. the Ohio suffrage
amendment. limited presidential
franchise for women. which was hope
lessly defeated in Ohio, was banished
from thought by the more insistent in
terest in the fate of prohibition.
