Richmond, Va.

The Richmond loose leaf market
for the sale Of Virginia sun cured
tobacco opened this week. From ap-
pearances of tobacco so far offered
we are promised a good, sweet, man
ufacturing crop; but the farmers are
cautioned to look well into the order
of their tobaccos to see that they do
not mould; as last summers con-
tinued rains were very disastrous to
the order of tobacco, and some
mouldy tobacco is showing up.
We sold on opening week $1,000
pounds at an average of 1872 per
hundred, which is about one-third of
the average price for entire last sea-
son.

1900 to 10000, and Senator Beck
ham has been reelected by 10000
to $4,000 majority.
"Returns from every county re-
ceived at Democratic headquarters
prove that Kentucky has gone safely
Democratic and that Senator Beck
ham cannot be deprived of his we'll
earned victory without the grossest
fraud"
Chairman Grayot has sent the fol-
lowing telegram to many of the
Democratic county chairmen in the
Eleventh district:
Frequent changes in the reports
from Republican counties lead us to
believe that there may have been
some tampering with the figures in
the certificate of election officers
returns. If there is a ground to be-
ieve that anything like this has been
done in your county, want to urge
you to make a careful investigation
of returns in the clerks office to see
if any changes have been made"

Bryan Blames Wilson
And Cox for Defeat

William j. Bryan placed what he
termed the blame for Democratic de-
feat about equally between Presi-
dent Wilson and Governor Cox in
statement made last evening. The
President, he said, '1aid the founda-
tons for the disaster and the Gov
ernor completed the structure"
"The American people want the
government to play its part in the
abolition Of war, but they are in
different as to whether we are part
of League or part of an associa-
ton of nations" the statement said.
"The real issue presented by the
Democratic party was not whether
we should cooperate with other ma
tions interested in peace, but as to
whether we should assume a moral
obligation which had no weight ex-
cept as it suspended the right Of
Congress to act independently. The
nation will do its part in aiding to
prevent war, but it will not surrender
into the keeping of any foreign
group the right to determine when
we shall declare war. O.
Governor Cox, instead Of repair
ing the injury done by the president,
aggravated the situation by the
manner in which he avoided domes-
tic issues and misrepresented the po-
sition of the Republican, party on
the League issue, which he declared
to be paramount"

Harding Certain Of
BIG Electoral Votes

The crest Of the Republican cleo
ton wave, both Presidential and
Congressional, continued rising as
belated returns filtered in.
Among new Democratic casualties
were defeats of Representative
Champ Clark, Of Missouri, former
speaker and present Democratic
leader of the House; election Of a
Republican congressman from Texas
election Of a Republican senator
from Missouri, and a sudden jump
Of Senator Harding into the lead in
Oklahoma.
Another border state, Tennessee,
hung by narrow margin, but with
the Democrats leading.
A Republican Senate majority of
about 10, as compared with but 2
at present, and a House majority of
around 100, as against 40-odd
were other forecasts Of the over
whelming majorities.
With about eight states still in the
doubtful list in presidential and
Senatorial contests, the huge ma
jorities assured Senator Harding
and Governor Coolidge Of at least
376 electoral votes, with Governor
Cox certain only of 127-all from
the Solid South, including Ken
lucky.
The Republicans have added Mis-
souri,, Idaho, Maryland and South
Dakota to their string, on the face
of large majorities and of the re-
naming states the Republicans were
reported leading in Oklahoma, Ari-
IONA, Montana, Nevada and North
Dakota.

George w. Stevens :
c. & o. Chief, Dead

George W. Stevens, president Of
the Chesapeake & Ohio for the past
kfifteen years, dropped dead yester-
day morning while reading his mail
in the Greenbriar hotel at White Sui
phur Springs, w. Va.
Mr.. Stevens started his railroad
career at Che age Of fifteen as q
messenger boy in Indiana and soon
learned telegraphy while serving in
the capacity Of messenger boy. He
rose through the various stages Of
pAilway service, including operator,
train dispatcher, superintendent,
general superintendent and general
manager, to the presidency Of one Of
the largest railway systems of the
country.
He came to the Chesapeake and
Ohio as minor official in 1889 and
was chosen as its president fifteen
years ago. His SON., Paul, who died
two years ago, was general manager
of the road. Two other sons, George
and Cecil, and daughter, Miss
Helen, survive him. He maintained
his residence at Virginia Manor on
the James river in Virginia, where
his daughter kept house for him,
Mrs. Stevens having died several
years ago.
Mr.. Stevens was recognized as one
of the most progressive railroad men
in the country and was especially
noted for his friendship and fairness
to his employees. 1t has been said
that any employee with grievance,
no matter how trivial, could get
hearing from the "Chief."
He was well known in this section
and has large number Of friends
here who, never lost an opportunity
to pay their respects on his frequent
visits to this and surrounding coun-
ties.

Eastern Tobacco
Markets Improving
DanviIIe. Va.

From the standpoint Of quality,
the sales the present week are con-
sidered the largest in Che history Of
the market. Triple sales blocked
each day. Notwithstanding this, the
prices have continued firm on all
grades.
Rains about the middle Of the
week brought about good "sea-
son" forthe farmers to prepare their
tobacco for market; and next week
would undoubtedly show heavy re-
ceipts, but for the sales being sus-
pended Monday and Tuesday.
A number Of farmers interviewed
expressed themselves as being well
pleased with prices they are receiv-
ing.
The crop is weighing out heavier
than was expected early in the sea-
son., and while the general average
in price is lower than that Of the
1919 crop, the growers are evening
up to some extent by the increase in
pounds to the acre.
Total sales for the week amounted
to 3,3s6,793 pounds, at an aver
age Of $29.65, the total amount paid
out to farmers being $1,000, 323.S1,
as compared with 2,716,000 pounds
at an average of $30.51 the preced-
ing week. The slight decrease in
average is occasioned by reason of a
larser percentage of common tobac-
cos showing up in the offerings.

Held to Court

Lee Burgess and Goebel Pelfrey,

urday by Prohibition Agent Neale
Guilfoile and brought before Com
missioner w. H. Wood on the charge
of operating an illicit distillery. At
the trial Pelfrey was dismissed, and
Burgess was held to Catlettsburg
Court and placed in Jail without
bond on account of alleged threats
against the government agent.

President Has No
Comment to Make

President Wilson had no comment
to make on the result Of Tuesdays
election, nor did he send any mes
sage Of congratulations to Presi-
dent elect Harding.
Having RECEIVED only the prelimi-
nary returns before retiring Tuesday
night, the President arose early on
Wednesday morning and after
breakfast scanned the later figures
Of the Republican victory as indi-
Gated in the morning newspapers.
Later he spent some time on the
south portico Of the White House
and conferred with Secretary Tu-
multy.
Rear Admiral Cary T. Grayson,
Presidents personal physician,
made special visit to him at noon
and STATED, substantially, that the
Presidents health had been unaf-
fected by the result Of the election:
He said the President had had a
restful night and that he was in
good condition"
During the afternoon the Presi-
dent and Mrs. Wilson took their
daily automobile ride.
cambridge Colby, Secretary of
State, was the only member of the
Cabinet to make any formal com
ment on the outcome of the election,
but Secretary Wilson of the Labor
Department, sent message to Gov
ernor Cox, in which he declared that
"truth crushed to earth shall rise
again."
Mr.. Colby said he was "disap-
pointed and depressed" but that he
could not but feel "that in some way
and by some avenue not at the mo-
ment disclosed, this country will act
up to the highest concept Of duty"
Official and diplomatic Washing
ton, impressed by the proportions OF
the Republican victory in what lead
ers on both sides in the Presidential
fight had declared to be solemn
referendum on the League of Ma
tions, already have begun to specu--'
late assto the Presidents probable
course with regard to the treaty of
Versailles, which has reposed in the
White House since the Senate re-
fused to ratify it for a second time
last February.
There was no one in Washington
who professed to know what deci-
sion, if any, the President has made.
Two courses were regarded as open
to him-to leave the whole question
of peace with Germany and the
league to the new administration,
which takes office March 4th, or
resubmit the treaty to the Senate at
the session beginning early in De-
cember.
Unless the treaty is resubmitted
to the Senate that body at it's forth
coming session could act on the
question of peace with Germany

Kentucky Democratic
By Safe Majority

A victory in Kentucky for Cover
nor James M. Cox and Senator J. c..
w. Beckham was claimed by State
leaders last night. At the same time
charges Of gross and deliberate
fraud were brought against the Re-
publican leaders in handling the ball
lots in the Tenth and the Eleventh
districts.
John L. Grayot, Democratic cam
paign manager, estimated Cover
nor's Cox's majority in the state at
$1,000 to 10000, and Senator Beck
hams lead at 10000 to $4,000.
Chesley H. Searcy, chairman Of
the Republican State Central Com
mittee, in a statement issued late
last night claimed a majority for
Senator Harding of 1000 and for
R. P. Ernst, of $4,000 would be
indicated by final returns.
Republican state headquarters re-
fused to issue any statements rela-
tive to returns by counties. Follow
ing the charges Of fraud brought
against. the Republican leaders, the
Democratic State headquarters re-
fused to make any announcements
Regarding majorities claimed by the
various districts.
The final result should be known
following the meeting of the county
election boards Friday, when pre-
cinct returns will be canvassed.
There are three members of each
Of these boards, a representative Of
the Democratic and of the Repub-
lican parties, with the county sheriff
acting as referee and third member.
Contests may develop, however,
in several of the mountain counties,
prolonging indefinitely the determin-
alton of the final result. Attorneys
have Been sent by Democratic State
headquarters to counties throughout
the Tenth and Eleventh districts to
safeguard the interest of the Demo
cratic candidates. Agents of the De-
partment of Justice were working in
the mountain counties Tuesday dur
ing the election and have been busy
gathering evidence of the proceedings
since the closing of the polls. Par
ticular attention is being given to
the handling of the ballots in Bell,
Leslie, Whitley, Perry, Pike and
Harlan counties.
In statement given out WedneS-.
day evening to the press, Demo-
cratic chairman Grayot said:
"Reliable information has been re-
ceived of gross frauds in several
counties in the Eleventh district. We
are led to believe that changes have
been made in the ballots after they
were counted and certified to by the
election officers, but in spite Of all
this force and fraud perpetrated by
the Republicans and after giving
them all their leaders claim, Gov
ernor Cox has carried Kentucky by

RANDOM EAGER
 FOR TUESDAYS
 F|GHTPROGRA|N

The first of the boxing programs arranged by O. s. French, manager of the Bsbee athletic club, in his plans 10 give the Warren district the best fight cards in the state will be held on Tuesday evening at the Grand theatre. when 26-round bill will be presented with some of the best known scrappers in the south west appearing as principals.
 Ir the main event, Russel Cham |. bers, whose fight here several weeks ago with Happy Woods was consid- cred as good an exhibition as has been presented here since the incep- tion of the Bisbee Athletic club. and who ranks high among the welter- weights of this part of the country, will meet Battling Beaver of Yuma. The latter, through holding Colima to a draw some time ago, is perhaps as equal a match for Chambers as could be found, and has a reputation in his division which has made him a drawing-card wherever he has ap- peared He has arrived here aDo has started the continuation of his training. He and Chambers are in good shape, and fans are promised 10 rounds of as good fighting in this event as they could wish to see.
 The eight-round special event which precedes the main scrap will show two dusky fighters who are known all along the border as ready and aggressive mixers. Kid Hook bone is rated the champion colored welterweight of the southwest. while his opponent, Eard Hitting Wright, has been treading on his heels fol a chance at his honors for several months. This fight shouI be as good as the main battle.
 Kid Hartman, the Bisbee boy who has made good ill the boxing game since he started several months ago, will appear in the opening prelim- mary. He will meet Young Queeno, of Douglas, who started out in the fistic game in the smelter city, and who, having entered the army, has built up reputation for himself in the Philippine Islands where he has been tangling with the best that the army there afforded. Those who have seen Hartman in action know that, whoever his opponent may be, the scrap is going to be lively.
 Kid Matthews and Young Duffy will meet in the other preliminary. Duffy halls from Phoenix and Mat thews comes from Tonopah, New. Both boys are declared to be hustling scrappers. Each one carries a wal lop, and much interest is being taken in the settlement of their differences on Tuesday.
 Tickets for tho bout are on sale at The Annex, Main street; The Her lnitage and Tammany Hall, Brewery Gulch, and Harry Seeiey's, Lowell.
