They ssemed to base their confidence upon the mption that “something might happen” in California. Mr. Hughes was told before he retired for the night that California had gone against him but he had no comment to make. Democratic headquarters were elec- trified by the announcement of the result in California transmitted to Chairman McCormick by the Asso- clated Pr The chairman was especially gratified because he had been vindicated his pre-election prediction that Wilson could be elect- ed even if he lost New York, New Jersey, Indiana and Illionis. Mr. Wilson is the only ever elected with the ‘“solid eas aZainst him. His victory was be- Jieved by politicians to presage an alignment for the first time in con- gress of the west with the south. It was pointed out that while he would not have “a working majority” in the lower house he would not have to combat a majority inimical to his policies. Ther saffrag women in the election. of their vote was eagerly awatted: While President Wilson lost in Tlli- nois and Oregon he carried Washing- ton, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado. Arizona, Kansas, Nevada, and California, the other ten state in which women voted g president was much speculation among s as to the part played by A summary McCormick Claims Minnesota. New York, Nov. 10.—Vance C. Mc- Cormick, democratic national chair- man, arrived at the party’s national headquarters shortly before noon to- day after a night’s rest and said that President Wilson having been re- €lected, he would return tonight or tomorrow to his home in Harri Pa, to resume his private business. He reiterated his claim that the pres- ident would receive 288 electoral votes, declaring that Minnesota would go democratic by a plurality of about 500. “The president is so completely re- elected that I do not expect the re- publicans to ask for a recount,” Mr. McCormick added. The furniture was being removed from the national headquarters today and the national committee’s local business will be conducted at a branch office, with the actual headquarters located in Washington. He, a for- ther gridiron star, said he lost fiftcen pounds during the campaign and was now down to football weight. Seats in Congress in Doubt. Atlanta, Nov. 10.—Official counts will be necessary to decide elections to congress from the tenth north Car- olina and the third Louisiana dis- tricts, seats now held by a repub ca@ and a progressive, respectively. Flection of Zebulon Weaver, democrat over Representative J. K. Britt, re- publican, in the tenth North Carolina district, was thrown in doubt today with republicans claiming Britt's re- plection by two votes. Official re- turns are still lacking from Graham sounty, but unofficial figures place Weaver in the lead there by twenty votes, which would make him a win- ner by a plurality of five. “Newspaper figures based on prac- Hr‘:\lly complete returns give Repre- | ccntative Whit Martin, progressive, F1,349 votes and Wade Martin, demo- crat, 1,320 votes in the third Louisiana district.

I act that all good upon the ssumption citizens desire to pre- serve the sanctity of the ballot by every legitimate means and if any citjzen is in possession of any infor- mation on this subject he should place the facts at the disposal of the pub- lic authorities. It has been common knowledge for -a long time among those informed as to political condi- tions in Connecticut that it was pos- sible for large sums of money to be expended indirectly for the benefit of candidates who themselves apparent- ly were spending but little. Our cor- rupt practices act should be amended so as to check the exerbitant and lav- ish expenditures which can have no other effect than to tend toward cor- ruption and fraud. A limit should be placed upon the number of so-called ‘workers’ who can be employed for a renumeration on election day. These are the things in which all good citi- zens, irrespective of party are inter- ested. Tt is time that Connecticut citizenship took a stand in the mat- ter to rid Connecticut of some of the unenviable reputation that has come to it because of the corruptible vote in this state, and the manner in which it has been handled by people whose zeal to win outshines their desire for good government." Mr. Cummings was democratic can- didate for United States senator and is the democratic national committee man for this state. SPLIT IN GALIF. NOW ANTICIPATED (Continued From First Page). scattering precincts again showed a marked Hughes trend. The latest figures early today were: Hughes 30,- 996, Wilson 32,406. These figures did not include 27 precincts in Roosevelt county, where the clerk announced that Wilson had won by 5 votes and that the re- turns had been locked up with the ballots. The remaining precincts were scattered throughout the state and include 20 in Rio Arriba county. Tifteen precincts in this county gave Tughes a lead of 300 votes. Twenty- two precincts also were missing in Socorro county, where twenty-three precincts gave the republican nominee a plurality of 313. Returns on United States senator, ccngressman and governar were far from complete. Three hundred and cighty-four preeincts gave Jone! democrat for senator 24,176; Hub- hell, republecan, 22,703.

Wilson Leading in Wyoming. Cheyenne, Wvo., Nov. 10.—Unof- ficial returns from 548 of the 538 pre- cincts in Wyoming early today gave President Wilson 15,931 votes against 2,757 for Charles E. Hughes. In these precincts John B. Hendrick democrat candidate for senator ,re- ceived 14,788 votes and Senator Clarence D. Clark 13,639. Interest centered in the congres- sional race between Congressman Montell, republican and John D. Clark, democrat, where both parties were claiming victory by 200 votes. Revised returns early today show that the congressional contest in Wyoming is close and both parties are claiming a victory. Democratic headquarters claimed that John e Clark, democrat, was leading Con- gres ondell, republican, by 29 with only 700 uncounted votes. Re- publicans insisted that Mondell was re-elected but gave no figures.

Republican leaders con- cerned that the plurality for the pres- ident would not be materiaily changed by the remaining vote.

E. Hughes had been the successful can- didate, secured a band and rode about the city. Now that opportunity pre- sents itself, the democratic party will show the republicans how to celebrate and do it in a manner with the proper spirit, That due respect and honor shall be given every man in the ranks it has been decided that every demo- crat will march on foot, carrying an American flag, thus displaying his in- terest in the party. Every man, wom- child in the city who favors the teachings of democracy will be welcomed in the parade, Line of March, Following a meeting of the party leaders this noon, complete arrange- ments were formulated for the affair. Three bands will dispense music, from 7:30 to 8 o'clock, at the following rlace: Philharmonic, Burritt school corner; City Band, corner of Ha ford avenue and East Main street; Universal band, corner of Broad and Washington street. Following the concert the bands will lead the re- spective wards to the concentration point at the Burritt school corner where the parade will start. H. S. Tallard has been named as marshal of the parade, which will traverse the following streets: WFast Main street to Hartford avenue to North street, to Broad, to Grove, to Lafayette, to Main, to Arch, to Webster Hill, to Franklin Square, to Central Park, through West Main to Vine and Tin- coln, countermarching to Central Park and ta the dispersing point at the Burritt school.

Salerno broke down completely and he, too, | sobbed in his grief. i Officials gave her permission to ride in the auto in which he was tak- en to Hartford. ‘While the accused admitted having | slain his wife, Justice Condell said he would enter a plea of not guilty, permitting the superior court officials to deal with the case, the appearance of the prisoner here being ordered | simply to comply with the usual for- malities in criminal cases. That Salerno was to be given his hearing today was not generally | known and Selectman Johnson, Rep- resentatlve Simpson and a “Herald” man were the only spectators. Thinks Fim Paranoiac. A¥hough Salerno acted sanely acted in court, Dr. C. J. Hart. who attended him during the time he was in the hospital, characterizes him as a para- noiac and expresses the opinion that he was not sane at the time of the killing. The physician will probably be the principal witness for the defense should State’s Attorney Alcorn de- | cide to bring the prisoner to trial be- fore a jury. The slaver this afternoon when asked if he thought his mental con- dition to be all right said he felt funny at times. He apparently made no attempt at feigning insanity ana as he waited for his mother he looked and acted as a broken-hearted and crushed boy, painfully realizing the enormity of his crime and seemingly | not interested in what his own fate might be, WILSON GAINS IN N. .

Wilson lead 239. These figures, according to Secre- tary of State Bean, include the re- turns of the clerk of ward 2, Keene, who certified that Wilson electors received no votes there, although press figures credited them with 125. ifforts are being made to correct this return, which the secretary of state | believes to be an error. Its effect would be to mcrease the Wilson plur- | ality. Press returns from the eleven accounted for In the tified figures gave Hughes 1,670, Wil- son 1,360.

The Mayflower anchored off Rhine- cliff before daybreak but the presi- dent did not come ashore until 9:50 o'clock to take his train for Willlams- town, where he goes to act as god- father at the christening of the sec- ong child of his daughter, Mrs. F. B. sayre. Throngs lined the river bank, many carrying American flags, and when the Mayflower’s launch, carrying the president and Mrs. Wilson was seen to put off from the yacht, the crowd rushed excitedly toward the landing to greet them. Enthusiastic cheers went up as the president and his wife, assisted by Captain Jerry, of the Mayflower, stepped ashore, Tho president’s face was wreathed in smiles. He had received by wire- less the word that he had been re- elected. He raised his hat and waved it to the crowd as he and Mrs. Wilson set out on foot for the railroad station nearby.
