vestigation of reports of a plot to
obstruct justice in the Hall-Mills
murder case and to protect the
murderer was under way here to-
day. Special Deputy Attorney Gen.
eral Wilbur A. Mott, who expects to
seek the indictment of the woman
in gray" the latter part of the week
on the strength of the eye witness
story of Mrs. Jane Gibson, is said
to feel that the inquiry has been
hampered by the refusal of some
OF the witnesses to tell all they
know.
Others. it is said, have placed OBJ
stacles in the way of the investiga-
tors and Mr.. Mott intends to prose-
cute them on charges of being ac-
cessories after the fact in the event
he finds evidence supporting the re-
ports.
Definite action was promised by
Mr.. Mott before the week ends and
this was taken to mean that the
case would be presented to the
grand jury Thursday or Friday.
There was talk of social and poll
teal influence hampering the inves-
tigation some weeks ago just before
Mr.. Mott took charge of the inquiry
On behalf of the state. At that time
Timothy N. Pfeiffer, counsel for
Mrs. Hall, wrote Governor Edwards

Heavy Vote In County

NEW BRUNSWICK, Nov. 7.-Re-
ports received here this morning
from all sections of the county are
to the effect that a heavy vote has
already been polled.
The Democratic party workers are
particularly active in their efforts TO
put over the state ticket and they
are confident that Silzer will carry
Middlesex by from 1000 to 1000
votes. The women are taking da-
cided interest in today's election and
county women are reported as work
ing hard to put across the popular
Middlesex candidate for the guberna-
toriaI berth. In certain sections
more women have voted than men.
While the Democratic representa-
tives are working hard, the Repub-
lican forces are doing equally as
much work directing their attention
to the women.
Detectives of the prosecutors Of
fice are in readiness in case of dis
orders. The county board of cleo
ton is in session granting transfers
from one poll to another and Judge
DAILY is sitting to decide different
disputes.
Activities in the rural districts are
especially humming and both parties
have fleets of automobiles in opera
tion.

Rescue Some

SPANGLER, Pa, Nov. (By

in the Kelly mine explosion here

pital:
Leaders of the rescuers summar-
lied the situation at that hour:
Men in mine when explosion oc-
Cured, not more than 112.
Bodies recovered, so.
Bodies located in mine, 13.
Injured. in hospital, 80.
Total accounted for. 95.
There were still some uncertainty
as to the number of men who went
to work yesterday, but it was point
ed out that if the total was 112 as
some authorities believed, the miss
isg seventeen miners probably
'. v.ould be found in the eighth head
ing where the water had risen SO
rapidly that exploration this morn
ing was impossible.
Even If these men had gone into
the mine 1t was asserted they prob
ably had perished. If that proved
true the leaders said, the number
of dead would reach so.
Examination of the mine work.
ings by experts caused the officials
of the company to announce that
the property damaged in thc explo-
sion was VERY small
No statement will be issued re-
garding the cause of the explosion
until some time today. 1t was an
nounced that safety expert had
made a trip through the mine
short time before the men started
working and he reported to the
company that the workings were
free from gas.
Then came the explosion. and as
soon as miners from neignboring
pits could reach the nine prelimi-
nary work of rescue began. It was
supplemented later by trained engi-
neers from the United States Bu-
reau Mines branch in Pittsburgh
and the rescue crews of naighboring
mines.
The rescue men all told the same
story as they came to the serfuce
They said bodies were scattered

WOMEN LEAD
WAY To POLLS
Fair Sex Vote Early to Give
Men a Chance Heavy Vote
is Seen
SITUATION Is. IN DOUBT
Cloudy Weather Fails to Keep
Voters From Polls --Great
Interest Shown

Adverse weather condition this
morning failed to prevent an early
vote, the number of ballots cast here
Ifuring the first few hours the polls
were open showing large outpour-
ing of women and men voters. The
women apparently had needed the
advice given by leaders of both par
ties to register early in order that
the men who will not have an op-
portunity to vote until after 4:30
o'clock this afternoon will not be
forced to wait in line while women
voters cast their ballots.
Workers for both parties were out
in full force with automobiles this
morning, taking the voters. espe-
cially the women, to and from the
polls. The women voters who failed
to go to the polls this morning are
urged by party leaders to vote early
this afternoon, giving the men the
benefit of the last three hours the
polls are open.
Perth Amboy's total registration
today is close to the 10000 mark
and with a mayor, recorder and three
aldermen to be elected in local con-
tests, great interest is being shown.
The contests are all expected to be
close and upsets have been predict
ed by some by the intensity with
which opponents of present office
holders have conducted their cam
paigns.
The county and state issues also
are such as to bring out heavy
vote, both sides claiming victory
but with the result much in doubt.
The polls opened at 6 o'clock this
morning and will close at o'clock
tonight. The election boards Will
then commence to count the votes at
once.
The heavy vote early this morn
ing resulted in calls coming in early
at City Clerk Arthur E. Graham's
office at city hall for additional bal
Alot boxes. Ten additional boxes were
secured from the county board this
year by City Clerk Graham owing to
the lack of sufficient boxes last year
and the increased registration this

out the morning going from one
