 Though the weather bureau last nigh predicted probable contact with tn; mainland somewhere west of the Missis sippis mouth, and the moment somt time this afternoon, it's warnings were spread east as far as Tampa Early to. day there were indications the storm hac veered sufficiently to strike east of New Orleans.

 Plate glass windows throughout the business section were reinforced and, wherever available, metal shutters were placed over windows. This was espe- cially true in the old French quarter. Many signboards have been blown over throughout the city, and in one section a couple of houses were unroofed by the force of the wind
 With the rising tide and growing winds residents and pleasure seekers along the shore of Lake Pontchartrain commenced Hooking into the city. Driven by the increasing wind. the water in Lake Pont- chartrain began coming over the seawali at West End and Spanish Fort.
 From the Mississippi coast resorts every train returning to the city was crowded with vacationists seeking safety from the approaching storm.

MICHIGAN OFFERS ALL FACTORS FOR
 REAL EXPLOSION
No One Knows What Labor Vote In Country's Great est Industrial Cities
 Will Do

nx CLINTON Vi. eILpERr


 Detroit, Mich., September. 2i.-
 Especially At national party head-
 quarters in Chicago, the repnbiican
 leaders who had been longest fa-
 miliar with Michigan said that this
 state would go for Harding by m
 unprecedented plurality.
 The democrat who knows most about the state declared that he was almost willing to say that Cox might carry Michigan. He did not claim Michigan, but he thought there was peculiarly eruptive quality about Michigan's politics which might put 1t in the democratic column.
 The democrats count on just the kind of things that are to be found in Michi- gan They count upon them every where. They count upon the big n- dustrial cities, like this one, whose people came recently from the ends of the earth and have no political roots. These cities are likely to furnish the next line of political cleavage in this country. Moreover, Michigan has been politically restless. It went for Roose- welt in 1912 and the democrats figure they have strength where Roosevelt was strong. The state furnished sur. | Johnson in the republican primaries. These are signs and they usually mean something politically. They may not mean that omething this time.
 NEWBERRY CASE
 As in Indiana, so in Michigan, the republicans have had their troubles The Newberry case hangs over Michi- gan. It is not forgotten. It might have famed up into an issue. if Cox had established his charges of the ex- cessive and corrupt use of money. Cox had this in mind in making some speeches here in Michigan. But his charges have produced little impress sion, so far as can be learned. | In another respect Michigan is like l Indiana The strongest newspaper here is anti Harding. The news of this | city is independent, widely radical II ! is aggressive and has a record of ac- complishing things. It pursued New berry, it aided Johnson. it accomplished after long fight municipal ownership | of transportation. It is to be reckoned l with.
 l careful inquiry here seems to show that none of these factors which might produce political restlessness is as yet | producing it. Political restlessness hert | is potential rather than actual. good many people think that the situation | stable and will not be disturbed in tht l few remaining weeks of the campaign Detroit is a kind of high spot polit icalIy, an eruptive point of modern in dustrialism, just as Milwaukee is 2 | high spot politically as great center of the foreign vote, and as Indianspoli' is another, because Indiana is more polit Iically mined than any other state.
