OF the primaries Of the week, the
most interesting and important were
those of New York and Illinois, In
the former the REGULARS of both par
ties won. The Republicans renomi-
mated Senator Wadsworth, and the
Democrats named Lieut. Gov. Harry
c. Walker as his opponent. The Hi
nois primaries were interesting, espe-
cially because Of the fierce civil war
within the Republican party there.
The faction led by Mayor Thompson
Of Chicago was bitterly attacked by
the metropolitan press, but it swept
Chicago and Cook county. In the
rest of the state the and-ThompSon
forces piled up such large majorIties
that at this writing the result is in
doubt
The power of the press is very
poorly eXempifed by the Chicago
newspapers, for they nearly always
lose in fights Of this kind.

Mr.. Root sailed for home with the
intention Of taking part in the national
campaign and to urge America to adj
here to the International court plan,
which he is said to regard AZ the high
point of his career. The proposition
was taken up for discussion by the
league council when 1t met in Paris on
Thursday. II was expected that Italy
and Japan, and perhaps America,
would make objection to the article
in the constitution Of the court which
provides for compulsory adjudication.
In making public the text of the prof.
ect the council, In letter to all league
members, said:
"The council would regard az ir-
reconciube difference Of opinion on
the merits Of the scheme as an inter-
national misfortune OF the gravest
kind. It would mean that the league
was publicly compelled to admit its
incapacity TO carry out one of the most
important OF the tasks which il was
invited TO perform. The failure would
be great and probably irreparable; for,
IL agreement proves impossible unde:
circumstances apparently so favorable,
II Is hard TO see how and when the
task Of securing 1t will be successfully
resumed"

Terrible Explosion in Financial
District of New York Laid
to Anarchists.
MAY Be PART or HUGE PLOT
Republicans Say Maine Result Pre-
sages Their Victory in November
Attitude of Women Voters Signif-

World Court.
BY EDWARD W. PIcKARp.

New Yorl's financial center was
shattered and the entire country
shocked on Thursday by a terrible eX-
plosion that took the lives Of about
80 persons and injured some 300 9th.
ers. That 1t was the result Of a de-
liberate plot by anarchists is the firm
belief of federal and local officials, and
there Is reason 70 fear that Il was
but the start Of a campaign Of terror
ism against the tinanciers Of America.
The explosion came exactly at the
noon hour, directly in front Of the new
assay building Mt Broad and Wall
streets adjoining the subtrpasury, and
across the street from the beautiful
]. P. Morgan building, A one-horse
truck was standing there and the au-
thoritieS believe It contained a giean-
tic bomb that was exploded by time
clock. The deaths and injuries and
the damage done to buildings We're
mostly caused by short heavy slugs
made from broken cast iron window
weights, unlike any in the Wall street
district. This fact together with
many other developments, furnished
a basis for the theory Of the officials.
After the disaster it was learned that
a Wall street employee and the French
high commits sion had both received
warning that there would be an eX.
plosion in the district on September
Is. The letters both came from r..
Fischer, formerly an employee Of the
French commission, and were mailed
from Toronto. Fischer Is said to be
deranged as a result of a nervous
breakdown.
The victims Of the explosion were
mostly clerks and messengers. No
prominent financier was killed. though
many of them had narrow escapes,
and Junius Spencer Morgan, son Of
j. F. Morgan, was cut by flying glass.

Nearly 10000 women went to the polls
and some 10000 Of them voted the

as especially significant, for it has
been contended that the women Of the
country would support the League Of

conducted largely on national issues

both parties sent national figures into
the state as campaign orators the

The hand Of the bOlshevk is appar-
ent, too in northern Italy. Radicals,
most Of them foreigners, are trying to
get control Of the communist move
ment that sprang mp there and to foil
the efforts Of the labor confederation
to bring about a compromise between
the workers and the employers. In
some instances they drove contented
employees from factories and seized
the plants. Though the movement
was spreading considerably, there
was no reason TO change the predic-
tion that it would ultimately fail but
the probability that the employers
would offer 10 the men equal control
and profit sharing increased. Premier
Giolittl finally took hand in the dis
pute. inviting representatives of the
employers and workers in the metal
plants to meet him in Turin. Genoa

the French and Belgian people is dis
closed by a captured order of the Sew

preparatory measures for the Aisne

The order provided special precau-

Further provision was made for

tomary Gossip.

William H~ohenzollern, formerly en-
peror of Germany, still packs a punch.
He has compelled the barber of Am
erongen who trims his beard and mas
sages his face every morning to do
SO In silence. according TO Il. Walter
Williams, a New York newspaper man
who has just returned from Holland.
The barber told Williams that the
ex-kaiser prefers, to have him work
without talking. At the same min
ute every day the barber goes TO the
castle where Mr.. Hohenzollern re-
sides. First he trims the yandyke
beard which the former kaiser is af-
fectlng, after which he messages his
face. The former emperor Is very
sensitive about this operation, and be-
fore the barber begins he tells him TO
iron out all the wrinkles.
Williams said the barber told him
the exile is enjoying excellent health.
He judges this by the condition of his
c~lose-cropped hair. which is still hard
and wiry. Both hair and beard are a
snow white.
The children In the village fear
that there will be no Christmas trees
left this winter. for the former kaiser
is still at his labors of saving wood.
One Of the three staf officers who
have remained faithful to him gets at
the other end Of the cross-cut saw and
assists Mr.. H~ohenzollern.
