Va., Oct. 27.—On his way from Cincinnati to Long Branch to- day, President Wilson made several brief stops in West Virginia Maryland, to shake hands with peo- ple gathered at the railroad stations. He is due to arrive at Shadow Lawn at 10 o'clock tonight. The president’s trip away only remaining from Shadow Lawn before November 7 will take him to Buffalo November 1, and to New York city November 2. In addition he plans two more speeches at Long Branch, one tomorrow and the next Novem- ber 4. In his speech last night at Cingin- natl the president reiterated his ad- vocacy of a league of nations to main- tain peace. “Other nations owe it to a decent respect for the opinion of mankind to submit their cases to mankind before they go to war,” he said, “and I belleve that America is going to take pride in the days to come in offering every dollar of her wealth, every drop of her blood, every energy of her people, to the mainte- nance of the peace of the world upon that foundation.” The president outlined his concep- tion of the problem before the nation as follows “Are we going to keep together and move forward, or are we going to divide and scatter and move back- ward? Do not let any man lead you who walks ‘with his head over his shoulder, harkening back to things many of which had better be fogot- tten, but follow the men who ade looking forward, whose eyes are lifted to a great destiny, which belongs only to America. Follow the men who do not ask what is your race, what is your religion, who donot even ask what is your politics, but simply say, ‘men and brethren, we are all Ameri- cans, we all have the same purpose, we all have the same privilege, we all rejoice in the anticipation of the same destiny, let us see that our hearts lie close to each other, and then all the forces of the world can- not withstand the mass and movement of this great people.” Cleveland, O., Oct. 27.—Republi- can headquarters announced today that Col. Theodore Roosevelt will speak here Thursday evening, Novem- ber 2, in behalf of the candidacy of Charles E. Hughes. Boston, Oct. 27.—Charles E.

REJECT LIEBKNECHT PETITION Committee Rejccts Request of Social- Democrats to Suspend Proceedings Against Convicted Socialist Leader. Berlin, Oct. 27, via London, 10:05 a. m.—A committee of the Reichstag has rejected the petition of the so- cial-democratic majority that pro- ceeding against Dr. Karl Liebknecht be suspended during the session of the Reichstag.

Eerlin School Authorities Issue Edict to This Effect. Berlin, Oct. 27.—The magistrary s#nd schoolboard of Berlin-Schoene- berg have decided that women school teachers who marry during the war shall be retained in office and receive the pay drawn by them before. It will also be endeavored to secure for them the increased pay granted from state funds for length of service. The au- thorities explain that “the situation created by the war makes it more and more requisite to encourage mar- riage.” Schoeneberg’s action is a step in advance of any other Prussian city. Others, including Berlin proper, per- mitted women teachers married to soldfers in the first days of the con- fiict to retaln their positions, but they have not gone farther. Secientific men are advocating the removal of any limitation on the marriage of women teachers: Dr. Felix Theilhaber, a well known authority on social and soclological subjects, recently direct- ed attention to the fact that nearly 20 per cent. of all women in Berlin forty years old are single, a number al- most double that of a generation ago.

Greeted at Many Points- Along and | Once Navy’s Only Submarine, Now Playground For Children ONCE A:SUBMARINE, NOW A CHILDREN'S PLAYGROUND This queer looking craft, looking altogether unlike the newer types of submarines in the American, Ger- man and other navies, was the first Holland submarine built for the United States nav It was photo- graphed a few days ago in Philadel- phia, where it lay like a stranded whale in an empty lot opposite Frank- lin field before being taken to New York for display at an exposition. The youngsters seen playing in the interior and on top of the queer craft are pupils of a nearby school who found the submarine a “dandy” play- ground. It appealed strongly to their unaginations.

There was a great increase in tne amount of Wilson money and scores of bets were made on even terms In Wall Street the Hughes backers, who several weeks ago were offering as high as 2 to 1 demanded even money, while the men who had most of the Wilson money asked odds. Sev- eral bets, amounting in all to $20,000 were made at even money, and about $30,000 more was bct at odds of 10 to 9 in favor of Hughes. It was reported by several betting commis- sioners that the Hughes backers were walting to get the best odds obtain- able. Edward McQuade, a betting commissioner, sald most of the wag- ers he had placed nad been at odds of 10 to 9 in favor of Hughes, with a few at even money. An offer of $2,000 even was made that Wilson Would win in Ohio, and a bet at 10 to 8 that Wilson would carry the State. There were no bets on the curb vesterday as to the stand- ing of the presidential candidates in New York City was reported with no takers. Several small bets were made at 9 to 5 that Whitman would be re-elected governor although the pre- vailing odds were 2 to 1 on Whitman to beat Seabury. There were offers of odds of 2 to 1 and even greater that Calder would be elected senalo with no response from the democ Fred Schumam, the Brooklyn bet- ting commissioner, said he had put between $2,000 to $3,000 vesterday st even money on the presidential elec- tion. He quoted odds of 8 to 5 07 Whitman to beat Seabury and sa‘'d that several wagers had been made at 7 to 5 that Hughes would carrv New York state. He said he had Calder money at 5 to 1, with no tak- ers. . He also sald wagers had heen made at 6 to 5 that Kings County, famed as independent, would zo ‘o Wilson, At Considine’s, Forty-second street and Broadway, it was said that the betting was more vigorous than for many years. The most striking bet vesterday was made as the resuit cf a remark ‘by a well-known sporting man that it was certain Wilson would win with the presidency and Whitmsn the governorship. He was takea up and bet $10,000 to $14,000. Several bets of 7 to 5 were made that Hughes would carry New York. Along Broad- way therc were some broad smiles vesterday for persons who had made large wagers on Wilson at 1 to 2 had covered up by making bets on Hughes at even mone) Of course, they stand to win if Wilson does, and if Hughes wins they will come out even.

BANG! ANOTHER HYPHEN BITES DUST Roosevelt Keeps Gun Pointed at Suspects in Our House Chicago, Oct. 27.—In the midst of a strenuous day of campaigning, Theo- exclusively of women and urged them not to be misled by the argument that Prasident Wilson has kept the country out of war, which has been used by the democratic campaign managflers to win women's votes for the president in the suffrage states. The audience, which filled the audi- torium from pit to topmost gallery, responded with shrill cheers. It was one of the most enthusiastic audiences Colonel Roosevelt has addressed since he started out to campaign for Hughes. The colonel reached Chicago in the afternoon, after campaigning through Jowa and Illinois, and was lustily cheered by thousands at the Union station. He rode to the Congress hotel through a long lane of cheering men and wornen. At the hotel there was another demonstration. It was an old- fashioned Roosevelt welcome all through. The ex-president in. the evening ad- dressed 17,000 people in the Pavilion in the stock yards district. He dis- cussed Mexico, the Adamson eight- hour law, preparedness and the tariff. The labor element predominated at the meeting. Be Gone, Muzzle. While his train was rolling across the prairies, on its way from Denver, the colonel received word that the re- publican leaders here, nervous lest he should say something on the hyphen question that would aleniate the Ger- man-American vote, were anxious to induce him to put on the soft pedal in any remarks he might make on that ticklish subject. Sure enough, when the train reached Cedar Rapids, emis- saries from Chicago came aboard and began to “reason” with him. The colonel refused to be “reasoned” with and, according to one report, even threatened to quit the campaign gath- er than be muzzled. In his speech to the women at the Auditortum he hit the hyphenates hard and received round after round of cheers as he pleaded for a 100 per cent. patriotism, and an undivided al- legiance. He quoteq at length from the recent letter of Professor Hugo Munsterberg of Harvard to Chancel- lor von Bethmann Hollweg as a strik- ing illustration of the utter impossi- bility of anyone serving two countries at the same time. He also assalled the President’s Mexican policy. DOWN WITH MILITARISM, Mexico City, Oct. 27—An order has been issued by General Alvaro Obre- gon, minister of war abolishing the title and position of ‘“Jefes de lasarm- This is taken here to mean one of the initial steps in the diminishing of mil'tary control throughout Mexico. Hereto- fore the powers of the jefes de las armas or military commanders super- ceded those of the clvil authorities and judges, [ereafter, according 1o Obregon’s decree, the commanders of garrisons will have authority over thelr own men only and will not deal in any way with the civil administra- tion. Those who have been acting as administrators without military com mand have been ordered to rejoin their regiments or brigades at once. t i Copyright Hart Schaffuer & Mars portunity.

They base their refusal upon the fact that, as members of the Diet, they are the Tepresentatives of the people whose duty it is to watch over the work of the government. They hold that acceptance of a deco- ration is against the spirit of the con- stitution and almost in the nature of a bribe. Also, they declare that it is improper to accept honors while the war in Europe Is still raging, merely because the Japancse troops had been victorious at Tsing-tau. A government official insists that it is not within the power of any Ja- panese to decline an honor bestowed by the emperor.
