HYLAN WINS IN NEW YORK
Tammany Candidate Carries City by
100000 Plurality.

100000 Plurality.
New York Nov. John F. Hvlan,
county Judge of Kings county, was
elected mayor of New York by plu'
rality of more than 100000.
He carried with him the eatire DEM
ocratic city ticket, including Charles
L. Craig, for comptroller; Alfred D..
Smith. now sheriff of New York coun1
w. for president of the board of alder
men. end Edward Swami, for district
attorney. The indications are that
the Democrats will have majority
IN the board of estimate, which con-
trolls the expenditure of the city
funds.
Mayor John P. Mitchell, who sought
reelection as fusion candidate, a.
though not formally nominated by any
party, was a poor second in the race.
His vote in 1910 districts out Of 206S
N the city was 141,033, compared with
277,1O1 for Hylan.
Morris Hilluuit, the Socialist candi'
date, ab0.t whom rallied most of the
radical elements in the city, and all
those who favor immediate NEGOTIATE
peace, stood third, with 129,371, and
William NJ Bennett, who Unexpectedly
won the Republican primary nomina
ton from Mayor Mitchell. was fourth
with 50,0Ss.

$4,000 plurality.
, District Attorney Rotan, who had
little opposition, was reelected.
There were many surprises in the
majorities claimed and delivered by
ward leaders. The big northeast and
most of the West Philadelphia ward
revolted at the Frog Hollow ticke
and turned in for the fusion candi
dates. Germantown, Frankford, Mana,
yunk and Tioga swung in, but the big
Vare-controlled wards were late in
the count and the Vare-Smith leaders
would not concede defeat al midnight
claiming still to have won by 10000
majority though earlier claims had
been $4,000. The councilmanic ! re-
turns were too meagre for discussion
but the fusion forces were paradine
the central section and shouting vic
tory
The most distressing development
of the day to the Vare-Smith leaders
was the. announcement made early by
Senatorpam P. McNichol, who said:
"WhateNr Penrose is going to be l
am going to be. All smy friends are
with Penrose" This released several
ward leaders. notably Campbell, TWEEN
ty-fifth: Devlin, eighth; Nicely, Ninth;
McCauehan, Twenty-fourth. and sew
eral others in various parts off the
city, who had only been awaiting the
word of the tenth ward senatOF. Sc
lect Councilman Seger. of the seventh
ward, refused to go along, and kept
his bailiwick in the regular column,
but the McNichol element in many
sections made itself felt. even in the
wards that gave majorities for the
$3.50 candidates.
Some interesting returns in the
home divisions of prominent figures

The success of James A. Carev, vic
tim of the Frog Hollow gunmen in
the fifth ward, was the cause of big
parade and a big noise.
The soldier vote taken in the several
training camps in which Philadelphia
bows are quartered will form quite a
factor. as more than 10000 are now
out Of town. How many of these men
voted will not be known for several

Census Bureau Estimates That Is
Number of Men Between
Fl and 80.
ten PER CENT OF POPULATION
Figures Show Men Of Draft Age In
the Several States and In the
Leading Cities-Government
Ready for Registration.

MISUNDERSTANDING to a state
ment issued by Director Sam L. Rog-
ers of the bureau of the census, de-
partment of commerce, there are es-
timated to be In the United States
at the present time, in round numbers.
100000 men between the ages Of
twenty-one and thirty, inclusive. This
number represents very nearly 10 per
cent Of the estimated population of
the country-between 103, 100000 and
104,000,O0O. The table below shows,
for the United States, and for the
leading cities, the numbers of males
between the ages of twenty-one and
thirty, inclusive, on July 1, 1917. The
figures for that date are estimated
on the assumption that the annual nu-
merical increase since 1910 In each
state has been the same as the aver
age annual numerical increase be-
tween 1900 and 1910.

STEEL WORKERS NEED HOMES
Housing Problem at the Bethlehems
is Becoming More Acute
Than Ever.

South Bethlehem, Pa.-With the en-
try Of the United States into the war,
the housing problem In this phenome-
nally growing steel center has become
more acute than ever.
II is estimated that to house prop
erly those who should reside In the
Bethlehems. but who are compelled to
seek residences elsewhere, 5000 to
10000 more buildings are needed.
Private building has been going on
at the rate Of 1900 houses a year.
Charles M. Schwab has just an
nounced his company will put up
1900 more workingmen's houses this
year at a cost of s5,0OO,OO0. this be-
ing equivalent to building town of
between 5000 and 10000 persons. But
the situation will probably be as bad
at the end of the year as 1t ever was,
unless the rate of growth suddenly
drops.
To build the new Schwab houses
50 carloads of material will be deliv-
cred every day. Three thousand work.
men will be employed.

Folks who are accustomed to feel
dull and heavy when they arise, split

can, instead, feel as fresh as daisy
by opening the sluices of the system
each morning and flushing out the
whole Of the internal poisonous stag
nant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
well, should, each morning, before
breakfast, drink glass of real hot
water with q teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in 1t to wash from the
stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the
previous days indigestible waste,
sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus
cleansing, sweetening and purifying
the entire alimentary canal before
putting more food into the stomach.
The action OF hot water and limestone
phosphate on an empty stomach is
wonderfully invigorating. 1t cleans
out HI tue sour leTIueuIdtlOus, gases,
waste and acidity and gives one a
splendid appetite for breakfast. While
you are enjoying your breakfast the
water and phosphate is quietly ex-
tracing q large volume of water from
the blood and getting ready for q
thorough flushing Of all the inside
organs.
The millions OF people who are
bothered with constipation, bilious
spells, stomach trouble, rheumatism:
others who have sallow skins. blood

urged to get a quarter pound OF lime

which will cost very little, but is

IS DISTINCT FROM DRAFT
War Department Clears Up Confusion
Regarding Registration and Sc
lective Draft.

Washington.-From many letters re-
eeived daily the War department
learns that registration and selective
draft are being confounded. These are
separate and distinct processes. Regis
tration Is simply the enrolling of all
male residents Of the United States be-
tween the ages Of twenty-one and thir-
ty, inclusive. Every male resident be-
tween the designated ages must regis
ter on the date set by the presidents
proclamation unless he Is In the regu-
lar army, navy. the National Guard. or
naval militia. actually In the federal
service.
The enrolling Is done In each voting
precinct by registrar appointed for
the purpose. The duties of the regis
trar are mandatory and are performed
under the sanction of an oath. Nothing
Is left to his discretion. He is liable
to heavy penalty. Imprisonment with
no alternative Of fine, for making false
return, or In any way being a party to
or conniving at practices Of favorit-
ism or evasion. A like penalty i'm
ponds over the individual who fails
to register.
The later process of selection will
be made by lot from the names en-
tered on the registration rolls. Full
information as to exemptions and
methods of selection will be published
later. For the present II is all I'm
