No ACTION ON
PEACE PROTOCOL
German Shipping Of Arms to
Russia Discussed
By The Associated Press.


PARIS, Nov. 10.-Although today
has been set as the date for meet
ing between representatives. of the
Germans and delegates of France
Great Britain and Italy to discuss the
proposed protocol to the German
peace treaty in which the Germans are
expected to bind themselves to live
up to the armistice conditions, the
discussion did not take place the
Italian delegation 1t developed was
not ready for the conference. At this
mornings meeting of the council the
subject of the shipment by the Ger
mans of arms into Russia was dis
cussed.
Instructions were sent to the inter
allied military commission in Berlin
to notify the Germans that such ship
ments must be discontinued. The
German contention was that the arms
were designed for General Denikine,
but the general belief in peace confer
ence circles, was that they were in
tended for Col. Bermonde, the lead
er of the combined German insurgent
and Russian force near Riga.
The supreme, council has decided
not to interfere with the German mu-
nicipal elections now being held =
areas where plebiscites are to be taken
under the peace treaty. 1t has de-
cided, however. that such elections
will be in no way binding upon the
allies, which will disregard them
whenever necessary when the final
settlement of affairs from the districts
are settled.

in Most Cases

The official county election returns
were announced by the county clerk S
Office this morning, the figures being
almost identical with those given out
by the Perth Amboy EVENING
NEWS on Wednesday afternoon of

curacy with which the EVENING

edition complete from every polling
place in tho county before o'clock
| that morning.
The vote for governor in Middle

ing by County Clerk Bernard M.

Identical with the results given in
the EVENING NEWS last Wednes-
day.
The remainder of the official figures
showed slight differences. with the ex-
ception of the vote of Alfred Kerr,
Democratic candidate for freeholder
which was exactly the same as that
published in the EVENING NEWS,
9,737.
Appleby's official count was II ,295,
being thirteen more than the num-
ber given him by the NEWS. Wight 8

the NEWS figures. DeVoe received
10,460, eight less than this papers

Ing 10,035, while the NEWS returns

est discrepancy was twenty-five votes,

Car Breaks Down, Causes Delay
at Pennsylvania Railroad

Shortly after 1 o'clock this after
noon Pennsylvania Engine 1893 with
a heavy freight going south. was de-
layed about fifteen minutes, due to the
pulling of a draw-head from a car of
ashes. The Smith and Market street
crossings of the Central Railroad
were blocked for this length Of time,
and considerable traffic held up.
The accident happened after the
engine which had stopped for water,
attempted to proceed, the pull on this
car of ashes which was in the middle
of the train, was too much for the old
wood on the car to endure, and tho
draw-head fell out.

John Mattaash, twenty-five years

perhaps fatally injured in an accident
at the Raritan Copper Works this
morning, when, in an attempt to jump
a moving crane, he missed his step
and fell, directly in front of a rear
wheel. He was rushed to the city
hospital and an examination by Dr.
Wilson showed the right leg crushed
from the knee up, and also internal
injuries.
According to the plant officials Mat
taash had run after and attempted to
ride on the crane, against all rules of
the factory. and in the attempt to get
hold, slipped and fell in front of the
entire piece of machinery. Reports
from the hospital this afternoon show
that there is very little chance of his
recovery.

NOTHING To SAY
AS To RECOUNT
Conference This Morning, But
Nothing Given Out

A conference of the city's Demo-
cratic leaders was held in the office
of Mayor Frank Dorsey shortly be-
fore noon today at which the matter
of holding a recount of the Voorhees,
Wester vote was further discussed.
Efforts to learn the outcome of this
conference were of no avail as Mayor
Dorsey said this afternoon he or any
one else was not authorized as Yet to
make public anything done at that
time
Although the latest statement COM
ing officially from Mayor Dorsey was
to the effect that arrangements were
still being made to make application
to the supreme court for a recount,
persistent rumors are going about the
city that the Democrats will not
carry out the recount.
Ten days from election are allowed
by law in which to make application
for a recount. Today is the sixth
day, giving the Democrats until Fri
day to decide whether or not they
wish to contest the result which gave
John N. Wester the alderman at-large
position by three votes over William
Voorhees,.
The fact that it will be possible to
hold a commission government cleo
ton next year and the possibility of
such a form of city government be-
ing adopted seem to hold considera-
BILE weight with leading politicians
here. If this form of government
should be adopted the aldermen
would have only a few months to
serve after which commissioners
would be elected.
William Voorhees,, the defeated
Democratic candidate, made q state-
ment last week that he was willing
to take his medicine" and does not
ask for recount This Is the opin-
ion held by many other Democrats.
Republicans declare that if a re-
count is held 1t Is their belief that
the margin by which Wester won
will be increased instead of de-
creased.
