RETURNS LATER
THAN EVER BEFORE
Oownpour of Ballots is Elk
pected to Swamp Election
Machinery.

New York, Nov. 1.-The hour has
struck for the final victory notes"
of all parties concerned in the big
campaign; for the 18th hour trades
in different states, which, if effec-
lively carried out, will change a num-
Der of gubernatorial and senatorial
contests and possibly a handful of
electoral votes-and then the de-
LUCE.
Certainly this election Tuesday
promises to develop a downpour Of
ballots, the like of which has never
before been seen in an American
political contest and which threatens
to wamp the election machinery in
hundreds of precincts throughout the
land. If advices from many cities
east of the Mississippi are borne out
fore and some will not be complete
until late Wednesday.
Results, so far as the presidency
are concerned, will be in relatively
carly. However, there will be states
in which the outcome is doubtful, that
will be late in determining their final
complexion.
In the case of several governor
ships, notably in Illinois and New
York and several scholarships, not
ably in New Hampshire, Colorado.
Connecticut, California, Oregon, Ari-
zone, Idaho, Utah, Nevada, Missouri
and Maryland, the contests look suf-
fciently close to make the final out
come doubtful for a longer period.
In some instances a formal recount
may have to be made before the re-
suit is conclusively known.

EITHER HANG ME-

-WANDERER
Wants New Trial; Judge Pam
Would Have Feminine Jur-
les Try Murderers of
Women.

Chicago, Nov. l.-Women jurieS
to try murderers who have commit
ted outrages against womanhood-
An agitation to accomplish his end
has found official backing here as
an aftermath of the trial of Carl
Wanderer, former army lieutenant,
who confessed the murder of his wife,
who was to become a mother.
A jury of men found Wanderer
guilty and sentenced him to 25 years
Imprisonment.
The verdict was criticized by Judge
Hugo Pam, who heard the case; by
the prosecution, and. has since been
condemned by women's clubs and
leaders Of civic activity who rarely
make comment on such questions.
State May Ask New Trial.
Monday the state is expected to ask
a new trial in this case. Wanderer
cannot be tried again for the murder
of :''S wife. but he can be tried for
the murder of the ragged stranger
whom rs confessed he duped to frame
a fake robbery in his home so ne
could shoot his wife and claim that
it vas don by a burglar. Wanderer
killed both his wife aud the alleged
robber at that ms, according to his
confession.
1--WE viii not be able to try Wan
derer in the expected second trial be-
fore a jury of women, but in a very
short time the state will be able to
try other such cases with women
juries," said James G.. O'Brien, as
sistant states attorney, who headed
the prosecution in the trial just ended,
"a jury Of women would never have
given Wanderer q prison sentence.
Every woman knows one of the rea-
sons he wanted to get rid Of her. She
was 0 to become a mother and
Wanderer did not have the manhood
to the responsibilities of faith
erhood.
"a woman knows what that little
oma was going through-and
gladly. Twelve women would have
had the courage, and sense of justice
to have given him the sentence he
Notwithstanding. Within a short
time it will be possible for women tc
sit on juries in murder trials in our
courts ana every prosecutor will well
come them.
"We'lI Hang Wanderer Yet"
The jury in the Wanderer case
were impressed by the defense's in
sanity plea, but they were not i'm
pressed enough to bring in a verdict
recommending that he be sen to ar
asylum. They weakly compromised
on a penitentiary sentence"
The case has taken a curious turn
following a statement by Wanderej
after sentence vas passed.
His mother-in-lay' declared she wa:
sorry he wasn't sentenced to b.
hanged.
When this was related to Wanderel
he burst into tears.
IF my mother-in-law isn't satisfied
with the sentence I will ask for a new
trial" he said. "She was a mother t.
me and I can't disappoint her. 1 will
ask for a new trial and ask hat
either be hanged OF freed"
The state declares it hopes he doe
ask for a new trial. He has unit
Wednesday to decide. II he doesn't
he probably will be tried for the muir
der Of the ragged stranger"
