New York, No remarkable political campaigns in New York city’s history has closed. The variety of sudden, startling moves on the municipal checkerboard have over- ' turned all precedent, upset all calcu- lations and have rendered useless ail systems for forecasting the probable oulcome. The two old party organi- zallons have been invaded by a new aud great force, which under the name of the Municipal Ownership league and with William R. Hearst as its candi- date for mayor, has conducted a cam- palgn so vigorous and so well man- aged that the city has been asionished at its strength. At first it was be- lieved that this movement was one born of momentary excitement and! popular clamor dug to the insurance revelations and gther causes of vublic .—One of the most | | unrést and thaf when Tammany Tail | swung its great organization into line {the Hearst movement would decline jand collapse before election day.

BNT TO PREVENT MASSACRE OF RUSSIAN JEWS. ~ ‘Washington, Nov. 7.— President | Roosevelt has decided that no action can be taken by this government at present which will be of any benefit to the Jews of Russia. This informa- “aq was made public at the White <. during the day in the following stavument: “Oscar Strauss called on the presi- dent, not to ask him for action but to consult with him as to whether there was any possibility of action which would result in a cessation of the horrors connected with the mas- I sacre of the Jews in Russia. The pres- ident stated that of course he had ! been watching with the deepest con cern the reports of these inassacres; that he had been appealed to within i the past few weeks to try to take some ‘action not”only on behalf of the Jews in Russia, but in behalf of the Arme- 1 mnians, Poles and Finns. The result of the president’s inquiries coincides with the statements contained in a cablegram from Count Witte to Jacob + H. Schiff, shown the president by Mr. I Strauss, as follows: connection, the votes will not be Straiss, as foll counted for perhaps a week afterward. | The government is horrified at MASSACRE CONTINUES NEWS FROM INTERIOR OF RUSSIA SHOWS NO IMPROVEMENT IN THE SITUATION.

The horrible story of massacre &t Odessa is not fully known here. In . the Caucasus the Tartars and Russians are cutting each other’s throats and the Armenians are giving themselves up io pillage and incendiarism. i From Bachmut, Bessarabia, comes an entirely new revolting tale.

MIWAUKEE, RESULT OF GAS EXPLOSION FOUR PERSONS DEAD AND MORE THAN A DOZEN INJURED, THREE FATALLY. Ishpeming, Mich., Nov. 7.—Four chil- idren are dead, three persons probably fatally hurt and a dozen other people are injured as the result of an explo- sion, which completely destroyed the Miners’ National bank. The dead are: Stephen Goodman, aged twelve; l.o- retta McGee, aged ten; Edward Me- Grath, aged twelve; Edward Kiser, aged fourteen. James F. Mullen, an employe of the bank; Thomas Flannigan, aged sev- enty years, and Mrs, L. F. Small were | tatally injured. i Two steamfitters had been engaged {to make repairs to the heating plant and as they entered the building they {detected the smell of gas. They thought little of the circumstance, jhowever, and as they passed into the furnace room they struck a match to light the gas jet. A tremendous ex- plosion followed. The two workmen were blown through a basement Win- dow and landed uninjured in an open boxcar standing on a nearby track. Auother car was blown from the rails. The building was completely wrecked. The four children killed were pass- ing the bullding on their way home from church and were caught in the falling debris. The explosion broke windows in many stores in the business district and scattered the papers of the bank for blocks, but the bank vaults appar- ently are iatact. James Mullen was in his office in the bank building when the accident oc- curred and he was not taken from the debris until the rescuers had worked for two hours in clearing away the wreckage. The bodies of the killed were fearfully mangled. ACCIDENTALLY KILLED. Jucge 8. N. Dickinson, Well Known Wisconsin Lawyer. Superior, Wis., Nov. 7—Judge S. N. Dickinson, one of the best known law- yers of the state and most prominent residents of this city, accidentally shot aud killed himselt while cleaning a rifie. Although over seventy yeurs of dge Lhe judge was still active in his profession and also as a huntsman and augier. He was making preparations for a hunting trip. when the accident happencd. ‘The bullet pierced his heart.

He was a Democrat of the school. Cleveland | GALE ON. LAKE ERIE. Wind Reaches Velocity of Fifty-four Miles an Hour. Cleveland, Nov. 7.—A storm of great violence is raging over Lake Erie. The gale reached a velocity of fifty-four miles an hour during the morning and a tremendous sea was kicked up. Pas- senger steamers from Detroit and Buf- falo were late in arriving and reported very rough passages. Early in the day the lifesaving crew went out in a surlboat to a big steel steamer ap- parently in distress lying at anchor off Euclid beach. It was reported, how- ever, that while the vessel was listed she was in no great danger. It is sup- posed that her captain believed it un- safe to attempt to enter the Cleveland harbor in the heavy sea. Alexander's Condition Serious. Deerfield, Mass., Nov. 7.—The con- dition of James W. Alexander, former president of the Equitable Life As- surance society, is reported as.being serions.

He was found sev- i eral hours later asleep in a cofin. He | was promptly taken in charge by the| | police. BOTH PARTIES CLAIM OHIO. | Campaign Has Been One of the Hottest in State’s History. Columbus, O., Nov. 7.—One of the | hottest campaigns in the history of ©Ohio closed with a roar of emphatic oratory -and in a haze of uncertainty as to the outcome. The chairmen of the two parties give out estimates based on a poll of the state which are | so far apart as to add tc the uncer- tainty rather than to indicate a pos-| sible middle ground. For the Repub-; licans Senator Dick said that his poll— most conservatively made—indicated ; | that Covernor Herrick will be re- NDa1 EIBCTIONS na vote nerearter only In alternate years. A pending consti. tutional amendment provides for biep- nial elections and as this received the formal endorsement of both ‘the Dem- ocratic and Republican conventions it became thereby a part of each ticket and every straight ticket will be counted for the bienuial elections. FIGHT IN PENNSYLVANIA. Both Organization Republicans and Re- formers Confident. Philadelphia, Nov. 7—Both the lead- ers of the Republican organization and of the reform movement are claiming victory in the state and county elec- tion. United States Senator Penrose sald that belated reports confirm his opinion that “the Republican ticket, state and county, would be elected by a good majority.” City party ‘workers have completed |- ,an unofficial canvass- of the city and as a result they clalm a majority of not less than 33,000. The Democratic party, which is supporting the City party ticket, has, through City Chair. man Donnelly, sent out a circular urging all Democrats to work unceas- ingly for the Democratic state ticket and City party nominee TO AID STRIKING PRINTERS.

London, Nov. 7.—The desperate con- dition of the poor of London was ,brought to the notice of Premier Bal- (four during the day by an enormous Kl‘l‘owfl of wives and other women rel- ‘atives of the unemployed, who did not | hesitate to tell the premier that unless something is speedily done to lessen their .sufferings there will bec hlood- shed. g e “Don't forget that hungry men are desperate men,” said one of the speak- | ers, all of whem had the same tale to James Lynch of the Internationl Typo. , tell of husbands out-ef:work and starv- graphical union has received word that Ing wives and children.

The total amount thas raised during the - four weeks will amount to about $80,000. APPEALS FOR CONFIDENCE. Count Witte Asks Russians to Support Government. 8t. Petersburg, Nov. 7.—The Official Messenger prints another strongly ‘worded appeal for confidence. It bears Count Witte’s earmarks, hints strongly that the empire is threatened with dis- memberment unless the people rally to its support and draws attention to the different character of the repre- sentations with which the government is being besieged to quell the existing disorders in the country, some of them complaining of the zeal of the troops and others of their inaction, some ask- Ing for military protection and others for the entire removal of the soldiers. “Although it is impossible in every case,” the note says, “to diagnose the true cause of the conflicts it is clear that their origin generally is the hes- tility aroused among the difterent classes of the population. Those who are dissatisfied with the manifesto pro- voke the indignation of those who re- ceived it with gratitude, leading to attacks and counter-attacks, all of London marched through the streets, headed by a deputation which Mr. Bal- four received at the office of the local government board. The “Marsellaise” was heard as the | procession advanced, perhaps the first time it was ever heard under such cir- cumstances in the streets of London. Only thirty women were admitted to the presence of Mr. Balfour. The pre- mier was very sympathetic. 'He ac- knowledged that the evil was very real, but he had little to suggest in the way of alleviation except an expression of hope that public charity would come to the ald of the unemployed. At a mass meeting later the reply of Mr. Balfour was declared unworthy of the head of a great nation and his name was repeatedly hissed. GASTRO’S REPLY EVASIVE FRENCH OFFICIALS NOT SATIS. FIED WITH ANSWER OF VEN- »EZUELAN RULER. Paris, Nov. 7.—The officials here say that President Castro’s answer to Mr. Russell, the American minister at which could be avoided if the people' Caracas, in response to the latter's ef- only .had confidence thal the reforms. gorig o hring about a settlement of the | set forth in the imperial manifesto will be executed. Disorders accomplish nothing and only delay the reforms, which are designed to give the people & representative assembly in which to settle their differences. The duty of every laithful subject of the emperor is to aid in the pacification of the country.” 8IX THOUSAND CASUALTIES. Number Killed and Wounded in Re- cent Riots at Odessa. Qdessa, Nov. 7.—The town is quiet. It is now estimated that the killed and wounded during the recent riots here number 6,000. The city hospital alone contains 2,000 wounded. Out of the 6,000 casualties, those ‘who were killed or who died of wounds aggregate 964, of which number 213 were taken to Jewish cemeteries and 651 to Christian cemeteries. , diplomatic dispute between France and Venezuela, is unsatisfactory and ' evasive, as he does not respond to some of the main questions Mr. Rus- sell submitted in behalf of France. At , the same time it is said that the ne- | gotlations will not be broken off, as the French officials continue hopeful of a pacific adjustment. Castro's answer reaffirmed the will- ingness of the Venezuelan government to withdraw its note concerning M. Taigny, French charge d’affaires at Caracas, if the French government likewise would recall its request that Venezuela withdraw that part of fits note which gave notice that Venezuela | would not treat further with M. Talgny until he apologized for his statement that the French Cable company had been treated unjustly. SOLDIERS REMAIN ON DUTY. Order Will Soon Be Restored at Mid- DEMANDS PARTIALLY GRANTED.! Heshoros Ky Russian Imperial Manifesto Relating to Finland. Helsingfors, Finland, Nov. 7.—The imperial manifesto meeting most of the demands of the Finns has arrived ' here. The constitutionalists are sat- igfied and the socialists, who threat-| ened lo make a demonstration, have thus far been quiet. TROOPS CHARGE MOB. Number of Persons Killed and Many Wounded. Tomsk, Siberfa, Nov. 7.—The troops | during the day were forced to charge with bayonets against a mob, which was pillaging Jewish houses. A num- ber were killed and many others were wounded. .The city is half sacked. Russlan Officer Killed by Bomb.

Several characters from other sections have + been seen on the streets. The Law and Order league Is still ! pushing the fight, $2,000 having been subscribed for the purpose. Captain W. F.

Dubuque, Ia,, Nov. 7—Dr. Fred Han- cock, the attending physician to ex- Speaker David B. Henderson, who is suffering from an attack of paresis, said during the day that the patient’s condition was unchanged from that of the past few months. His removal to the hospital from the hotel was simply a matter of convenience in attending to his wants.
