' New York, Nov. 6.-~This holding its quadrennial mayoralty election today. Fair weather that ushered in the day led to predictions by the various campaign managers that a record breaking vote will be polled. Of the 696,809 voters who registered it was' expected that at least 675,000 would cast their ballots. The polls opened at 6 o'clock and close at 5 o'clock this afternoon. Many close political observers be- lieve that the result may hinge upon the vote of the soldiers and sallors, estimated at about 50,000, It will be about a month before it is known 40w these men voted. At the close of a campaign almost unparalleled for its bitterness cam- city is paign managers of the four parties issued statements ' claiming victory. The fusion party predicted that Mayor Mitchel would be re-elected by a plur- ality of at least 50,000; "Tammany Hall claimed that County Judge John F. Hylan, democrat would be elected by 70,000 plurality; ex-State Senator ‘Wm. M. Bennett, the republican nom- inee, who defeated Mayor Mitchel at the primaries, asserted he would get 275,000 votes,'and Morris Hillquit, the wealthy candidate of " the _socialist party, was eorh.ln that he would polg 230,000 votes. the .polis. The police ’ greater at polling places before, while the volunteer watchers exceeded the police by many thou- sands. Included among the workers ‘were many prominent soclety women. The police department has applied for hundreds of warrants for false and irregular registration and they have been issued by Chief Magistrate McAdoo. While the main interest in the elec- tion was centered in the mayoralty, the question of granting suffrage to women by amendment to the state constitution atracted unusual atten- tion. The suffragists have made a vigorous state-wide campaign for their cause and are confident of vic- tory. Four women, all soclalists, are can- didates for seats in the lower house at Albany. In New York state an attorney gen- eral, two assoclate judges of the court of appeals, full membership in the assembly and other minor officers are to be elected. Voting For Governor. Boston, Nov. 6.—Perfect “weathew prevailed for the state election today. Massachusetts voters besides casting their bgllots for governor and other state officers and members of the les- islature had before them three amend- ments submitted by the constitutional convention. One of these, the so-called *‘anti- aid” amendment, was responsible for the principal pre-election excitement and it was thought that the intense feeling aroused would result in throw- ing”out a large vote for an “off” year. This amendment would prohibit the granting of state aid to any institu- tion not entirely under public control. ~ Cardinal O’Connell has attacked it as being almed at the Catholic church but some of its principal supporters have been Catholics. The other amendments would en- able the legislature to establish ar- rangements for absentce voting and empower the btate, cities and towns, to take and distribute necessaries of life in times of emergency. Governor McCall, nominated by the republicans for a third term, was op- posed by Frederick W. Mansileld, democrat. There were also prohibi. tion, socialist and soclalist labor tick- ets in the fleld. Matthew ' Hale, a well known progressive, was the nom- Inee of both democrats and prohibl- tionists for lleutenant governor. In the sixth district, Wilfred W. Lufkin, republican and George H. Bchofleld, democrat were the candi- dates for election to the seat made va- cant by Congressman Augustus P. Gardner's resignation to enter the army. Bridgeport Voting. Bridgceport, Nov. 6.—The munlcipal election 'here today while preceded by a quiets campaign, developed unpre- cedented interest as demonstrated by the heavy early voting. ‘Continued on Lleventh Page) The question, N HERAL NEW BRITAIN CONNECTICUT, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1917. —TWELVE PAGES. HEALTH DEPARTMENT CURBS DIPHTHERIA Chairman G. H. Bodley Thinks Epi- demic Has Now 34 Cases in Oity. Two additional cases of diphtheria were reported to the heazlth depart- ment today, one on Lawlor street and the other in the family of Superin- tendent George F. Kibbe at the town farm. The patient in the last case is a High school student and has been taken to an isolation hospital. One previous case has been taken to the isolation hospital in Hartfora, making a total of 34 New Britain people af- fected with the disease. Chairman George H. Bodley of the health department today stated that he thinks the backbone of the diph- theria epidemic has been broken but, he adds, it is the duty of the school teachers to be doubly careful in checking up their records to prevent any children from attending school while there are either diphtheria car- rierg or patlents in their homes. Al- though the Rockwell school has re- sumed sessions, the children living in families where there are either peo- ple sick with the disease or where there are known to be germ carriers are excluded. “In many cases,” Dr. Bodley says, “the patients are \In the families of foreign born parents who, because of their unfamiliarity with the English language, do not understand the pur- poses or restrictions of quarantine. Therefore it is - necessary for the schdol teachers to keep an accurate check on all children known to have been quarantined. Especially is this necessary where some of the chil- dren attend one school and othern at- tend another school.” INCREASED RATES HAS ANGTHER PHASE Hearings to Be Held Now On Separate Rate Schedules Been Overcome— Washington, Nov. 6. — Another phase of the fight of the eastern rail- roads for increases in freight rates Which brought the executive heads of various great trunk llnes smystems here for yesterday's. hearing -before the Int ommerce commission today when examiner Disque by direction of the commission ‘began & -stries of hearings on sep- arate rate schedules involved in the case. The railroads are asking not only the complete horizontal 15 per cent. increase which they sought previously and were partly denled in the commission’s decision last spring, but are urging further increases on the ground that the 15 per cent. adance now would be inadequate to meet the mounting costs af wartime railway operation, President Rea of the Pennsylvania railroad has advised the commission that even' if it granted the balance of the 16 per cent. increase it would only leAve the Toads where they started 1A the case. He suggested that there ‘might be an increase of a few cents pér ton on coal, coke and ore while New England railway heads propose increases in class, coal and passenger rates. The separate hearing begah today with a presentation of the case of the proposed ncreased rates on anthra- cite coal. The New Haven road alone expects $300,000 additional revenue annually if the inerease in coal rates is granted and other roads will derive considerably more. BITTEN BY SPIDER. V. F. Gill's Arm Is Swollcn As Result of Insect Attack. V. F. Gill, son of John F.

The accident occurred nearby the, South Congregational church. In try- ing to crank the truck with his left hand the engine kicked, the crank striking him a viclous blow on the wrist. A funny coincidence was that a few minutes previous he was bitten in the left arm by a spider. He im- mediately went to the office of Dr. Charles A. Gillin where it was found that the spider bite had resulted in the swelling of the arm. It was also found that the arm was broken. ey WILD PEACE RUMORS.

New Milford, Nov. 6.—This town ‘has today five saloons doing business apparently without license. The town voted no license last month and it was supposed that the saloons would close on the first Monday in Novem- ber when their licenses expired. It was later found that under one amendment adopted by the last legis- lature the saloons were permitted to keep open apparently until December 1. A stlll furthr amendment was later discovered, which it is claimed, added confusion to the issue, some asserting that it nullified the other amendment. Five of the saloonkeepers applied to the county commissioners for re- newal of licenses were refused and have taken an appeal direct to the su~ preme court. Pending this decision the saloonists claim they have a right to continue business until the first Monday in December and are so do- ing. It is not expected that a decision from the supreme court will be hand- ed down before January. Meantime the no-license advocates say they will take no action. FUEL COMMITTEES.

ONTHE OPEN DGOR United States and Japan Arrive at Clear Understanding SERVICE OF HIGH VALR): Secretary Lansing Gives Out State- i ment tn Which He Says Japan Has | Performed Good Service in Clearing Awny Difficult Far East Question. Washington, Nov. 6.—Japan and the United States have reached a complete agreement in regard to China and at the same time have ar- rived at a clear understanding as to military, naval and economic co-oper- ation in the war against Germany. This momentous development was announced today by Secretary Lan- sing, ' who ‘'made public notes ex- changed' by him and Viscount Ishii, the special Japanese ambassador, formally recording’an agreement rec- ognizing that Japan has a special in- terest to China, but pledging the in- dependence ‘and territorial integrity of ‘the great eastern republic and Te- afirming the doctrine of the ‘“open door” for commerce and industry. In a statement accompanying the noté Mr. Lansing said Viscount Ishil and the members of his mission, now on their way home, had performed a servicé of the highest value to the United States as well as to Japan by clearing away misunderstandings, which, if unchecked, promised to de- velop a serious situation in the Par East. He spoke of an attitude of constraint and doubt fostered by a campaign of falsehood adroitly and secretly jcarried on by the Germans, and said that through the frankness and cordiality of the Japanese com- missioners the propaganda of years had been undone in a few days. Until last night when an Associated Press cable despatch from Peking an- nounced that the Japanese, ambassa- dor there had informed the Chinese foreign office /of the signing of an agreement by Secretary Lansing and ‘Viscount Ishii, it had not been known generally that the delicate Far Eastern question had been taken up at the conferences between the commission- ers and American officials. In fact, it was stated suthoritatively soon af- ter the mission’s arrival in Washing- ton that such problems would not be touched upon, and as the confer- ence progressed the general under- standing was that such subjects as Japan’s need for steel for shipbutld- ing and American gold for trade bal- ances were engrossing attention. It now develops that these latter ques- | tions have heen left to the resident | ambassador, Aimaro Sato, to work out with the proper officlals of the American government. Comment on the despatch from Peking was withheld last night be- cause of an understanding between the two governments that the an- nouncement should be made today, simultaneously at Washington and Following is the state department’s announcement: “On Friday, November 2, 1917, the secretary of state and Viscount Ishii, the special “Japanese ambagsador, ex- changed at the department of stdte the following notes dealing with the palicy of the United States and Japan in regard to China: “Department of state, Washington, November 2, 1917.
