FORTY INDUSTRIALISTS ARE CHARGED MURDER
SULZER'S LEAD IS
HUGE IN FIRST
JUNEAU, Nov. 10.—Sulzer’s elec
tion with a comfortable margin is
assured claim the democrats. In the
first divisions with eight precincts
including the town of Sulzer and
other Sulzer strongholds, yet to be
heard from, the final totals to noon
today are Sulzer 2226, Wickersham
1745, Lewis 300. The Sulzer lead,
it is estimated by the democrats,
will be increased by several hundred
in this division.
The votedf in ’bouglas island and
Juneau were Sulzer 1319, Wicker
sham 894, Mrs. Lewis 229.
In the Third Division with many
Sulzer precincts yet to be heard
from Wickersham 1595, Sulzei
1440. The Valdez Prospector thinks
it probable that Sulzer will carry
the Division.
In the Fourth Division Wickersham
is now leading Sulzer only by the
narrow margin of nine votes. All
dispatches indicate that this cannot
be increased beyond fifty. The
Dispatch is unwilling to admit Wick
defeat but admits it possible. The.
Empire claims Suzer’s election now
by three hundred and may be over
five hundred.
JUNEAU, Nov. 10.—At six o’clock
this evening Wickersham had gain
ed on Sulzer a few votes, but not
enough to change the tide of victory
for the democrat. It will be very
close.
With all precincts reported except
six, having a total of about two
hundred (the town of Sulzer,
among these) tha totals were Sulzer
2260, Wick 1812, Lewis 300.
As reports are not complete from
the Third, the issue is still uncer
tain, but-Sulzer has the best chance.

NEW YORK, Nov. 10.—Metropo
litanfPpapers comment upon the sig

GRIGSBY WINS EASILY
IN LAWYER’S RAGE
JUNEAU, Nov. 10.—Grigsby is
winning easily the election to the
position of Territorial Attorney
General. At noon today he led in
the First Division by one hundred
and fifty votes, and will probably
carry the division by two hundred.
Tabulations of the territorial vote
indicate ..that he leads in the terri
tory by sixteen hundred. This may
however exceed two thousand. The
rymall Schofield vote in his home di
vision is a great disappointment to
the republicans. Cobb is about one
thousand behind in the contest with
Schofield for also-ran positions.
VALDEZ, Nov. 10.—The final
count here in town was Sulzer 237,
Wick 202, Grigsby 197, Schofield
100, Cobb 129.

APPEAL TO HOUSE POSSIBLE
BUT IS NOT PROBABLE
NEW YORK, Nov. 10.—With vic
tory claimed at one time as certain
the republicans are very unwilling
to admit defeat.
Leaders today said that many er
rors in California are possible and
they point to the small plurality for
Wilson.
Wilson is the first president who
has ever been elected with the
practically solid opposition of the
east and may mean a new align
ment.
The only states which Wilson lost
apparently in the Middle west, south
and west were Illinois and Oregon.
It is held to be quite significant
that Wilson carried ten states
wherein the women voted and there
is a belief among the machine poli
ticians that this was the deciding
factor for Wilson. Others claim
the Union labor vote as the real
power.
Both parties are demanding the
facts as to New Hampshire where
the Wilson plurality is about two
hundred. With the progressives
polling over seventeen thousand at
the last election, Wilson’s plurality
was only seventeen thousand and
the republicans claim that the de
mocrats are a minority party.
The republicans say they may ap
peal to the House to decide the elec
tion but this is unlikely.
MILITIA VOTE FOR HUGHES
GAVE HIM TUESDAY’S LEAD
ST. PAUL, Nov. 10.—Fifty pre
cincts are uncounted in this state
and these may possibly affect the
final result. That is doubtful.
Democratic Chairman Wheaton
insists that Wilson will carry the
state by a plurality of 2138. Re
publicans do not claim anything.
It is now recognized that it was
the votes of the guardsmen, almost
to a man, that gave Hughes the lead
of 752 on Tuesday.

One paper suggests satirically
that if they were all guardsmen that
Hughes would carry the state.
NEW YORK, Nov. 10.—The New
Hampshire finals with practically all
counted give Wilson a plurality of
234.
GREAT WORK WILL BE DONE.
SEATTLE, Nov. 10.—Chairman
Edes of the Railroad Commission
arrived here today on the Watson.
He stated that a big shipment inf
coming from Panama of Canal ma
chinery which will be used in the
construction of the Alaska railroad.
This machinery is worth not less
than a quarter of a million but
would be worth a million if the
government had to buy this materia)
new in the market, bo it represents
a very great saving.
Edes promises rapid work next
year and be says that ten million is
the sum he thinks will be needed to
put through the work.
The line is making very satisfac
tory progress and some work will be
maintained throughout the winter.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 10.—Re
publican Chairman Rowells concedes
the election of Wilson by the slender
plurality of 2045.
The democrats however claim the
state by almost double this number
It is certain however that Wilson
carried California and is surely
elected in a most exciting contest.
USED MACHINE GUNK
SEATTLE, Nov. 10.—Secretary
Mahler of the local branch of the
Industrial Workers of the World
protested to the prosident against
the arrest of the industrialists anA
the attempt to railroad them after
the deputies had slaughtered their
members.

that the deputies had machine guna
and swept them over the ranks or
the members of the Industrial
Workers of the world when they at
tempted to return to Everett after
they had been deported.
After being subjected to adawlesa
deportation they are now to be rail
roaded for murder which the depu
ties committed.
