State Will Elect Governor,

Congressman
Millikea Runs Again
Democrats Attacking Him on
Distribution of Fund for
Soldiers Dependents

Maine will choose a Governor to-
morrow to serve two wears, United
States Senator and four members Of
Congress.
Republicans have been preparing for
the election ever since March rs, when
they induced Colonel Roosevelt to go
to Portland and make them keynote
speech. The leaders of Maine know
that the Democrats Of the nation, as
we'll as the Republicans, are watching
the outcome Of the battle to-morrow,
for every two years the grayheards
hum the old jingle, "Maine went hell
bent for Governor Kent, Tippecanoc
and Tyler, too"
Going back to the '40s is reaching
too far into history for the younger set,
however, and they are waging the fight
On strictly up-to-date grounds.
This is the first general election held
since Woodrow Wilson'S election two
years ago. Maine in that election gave
Charles +. Hughes a maj oritv of 5.475,
while Governor Carl L. Milliken, whom
the Republicans have renominated, de
fcated former Governor Oakley c.
Curtis. OF Portland, by 1880 votes.
I he principal fight is on the Governor
ship. For this office the Democrats
have nominated Bertrand C. Mclntire,
Of Waterford, who has been a candidate
before
Governor Milliken is running on his
record. The Democrats are attacking
him because, they say, the people do
not like the way he has distributed
state military funds, as provided by
statute passed in 1917. These moneys
are first paid by the various munich
palites to near relatives of soldiers
who may have become dependent. In
the case Of mother the law was not
at all explicit. 1t simply specified if
she was 'aged" she might be entitled to

District Attorney
Delves Into Past of
'Mystery Woman
Mingling of German Sailors
With u. S. Troops at Elks'
Club Investigated

Further Investigation yesterday by
Assistant District Attorney James L.
Smith into the alleged activities of
Mrs. Margaret Voorhees,, the woman
Of mystery" of Freeport, Long Island,
now being held for The government
disclosed the fact that one of four Ger
man sailors interned at Freeport dis
appeared almost simultaneously with
the arrest OF Mrs. Voorhees,. The Dis
trict Attorney has not completed his
search into the antecedcnts Of Mrs.
Voorhees,, and would offer no opinion
yesterday as to whether there was any
connection between the occurrences.
The arrest of Mrs. Voorhees, has
brought to light the fact that the in
termed Germans who were employed on
the German liner George Washington,
prior to its seizure by the COVER ent,
had been allowed almost unlimited rec
dom and had been employed steadily at
the Elks Club at Freeport.
The club has maintained open
house" for men in uniform for months
and at several public affairs held there
for soldiers and sailors, the Germans
have mingled with them freely.
A question the District Attorneys
Office and men from the Army 1ntelli-
gence Service are trying to answer is
just how active Mrs. Voorhees, may have
been around the club. They are seek
ing to determine whether or not she
received invitations to any or all Of
the formal affairs held there.
Edward LANCER, chairman of the
club house committee, is thought to
be the only one who can give definite
information on that point. He is head
of a large printing concern located on
West Broadway. He was in Washing
ton yesterday and is not expected
back until tomorrow
The authorities, in their investiga-
tions, are questioning everyone con-
nected with Mrs. Voorhees, in any way.
Her parents. Mr.. and Mrs. Fritz Norf,
are under arrest at Newark, N j., on a
charge of being enemy aliens.
Mrs. Voorhees, herself made a state
yuent to Mr.. Smith in which she said
she was born at Cologne in 1894 and
came to this country when she was
fourteen years old.

lantic Trust Company, which has been
seized by the Alien Property Custodian,
was branded as a dangerous enemy
alien yesterday by Rufus W Sprague,

Printer was arrested six weeks ago
by agents Of the Department Of jas
tice and has since been held in The
Raymond Street Jail, Brooklyn, on a
Presidential warrant. He will be sent
to Camp Oglethorpe, Ga, this week for
the duration Of the war.
Printer comes from an influential
Hungarian family. He was born IN
1876. Until arrested he lived at 36
West Fifty-ninth Street. He has two
brothers who are officers in the Hun
garian army.
In 1911, at the request of the semi
official Hungarian General Credit Bank,
he came to this country to establish q
bank for handling the funds of ALstro-

bonds secured by such mortgage that
the government is now asked to adj
vance approximately $2O,000,000 neces-
sary to carry out the plan Of reorgani-

at is estimated that the standard
rental to be paid by the government

$9,b00,000 and S10,000,000, and that
the fixed charges upon the reorganized
system will be only between $5,O00,0OO

standard rental will be fully adequate
to pay all charges, dividends upon the
