keep hands off.

CHICAGO NATIONALITY CAMPAIGN ENDS AS
 } CLAIM ELECTION
Thompson and Sweitzer Both Confident of Victory in
 Tuesday Voting

CHICAGO, March Chicago-s $ municipal campaign off mayor closed tonight with carnival of noise and downtown spectacles which many ob- servers declared had not been equaIed in years. Besides circus rings, there were stages to accommodate the num- erous performers supporting each of the six candidates for mayor at the election on Tuesday, April 1.
 Bands blared through the downtown streets all day; automobiles loaded with political workers; their vehicles beflagged and pennant-decorated, showered handbills; women filled auto trucks and with megaphones proclaimed the names ftheir favo- rite candidates; clowns paraded; sol diers and sailors in small companies marched; thes business heart of the city was bedlam, as the burlesque ragged. with street corner oratory flowing from balconies, boxes and automobiles. Numerous fistic encoun- ters occurred, without serious results so far as reported.
 ldS UT W illldm f1dlS thompson, T6- publican; County Clerk Robert M- Sweitzer, democrat, and States At torney Maclay Hoyne, a democrat run ming as an independent candidate by petition, each claimed victory tonight in the contest for mayor by large pluralities. T
 Other mayoralty candidates are: John Fitzpatrick, labor party; John M. Collins, socialist, and Adolph Carm, socialist labor Besides the mayor, thirty-five aldermen and other mu- nicipal offices are to be voted on.
