1913 Tour de France
The 1913 Tour de France was the 11th edition of the Tour de France, taking place between 29 June and 27 July. The total distance was 5,287 kilometres (3,285 mi) and the average speed of the riders was 26.715 kilometres per hour (16.600 mph). The competition was won by the Belgian Philippe Thys, after in the crucial sixth stage Eugène Christophe broke his bicycle and lost several hours because he had to do the repairs by himself. In the last stage, Thys also had mechanical problems, but he got help during the repairs, and only got a penalty of ten minutes.


1913 Tour de France
Between 1904 and 1912, the overall classification had been calculated by points, but in 1913 the classification was reverted to the original format from 1903, where the overall classification was calculated by adding up the times of the individual stages. The general classification has been calculated in the time format ever since.


1913 Tour de France, Innovations and changes
In 1905, the format of the Tour de France had been changed from the time system to the points system, to reduce the cheating that had caused the first four cyclists of the 1904 Tour de France to be disqualified. In the 1912 Tour de France, this system had been working against Eugène Christophe's chances, who would have been leading the time classification up until the final stage where he allowed a group to ride away.


1913 Tour de France, Innovations and changes
The system had been working against a French cyclist and in favor of a Belgian cyclist (Odiel Defraye, who won the Tour de France in 1912), and the French organisation changed the system back again to the time system: the finishing times of all stages were added per cyclist, and the cyclist with the least total time was the winner. This was also intended to increase combativity, because in the points system riders did not care about time gaps, so escaped low-ranked riders were ignored by high-ranked cyclists.


1913 Tour de France, Innovations and changes
For the first time, the route of the race was in the opposite direction. Prior to the 1913 race, the Tour the France always had been in the clockwise direction through France, and in 1913 it was anticlockwise.


1913 Tour de France, Teams
The 1913 Tour started with 140 cyclists; there were 51 cyclists distributed over 9 teams, including all favourites for the overall victory. The remaining 89 cyclists started in the isolés category. Stage results This edition started with six former Tour de France winners (Louis Trousselier, Lucien Petit-Breton, François Faber, Octave Lapize, Gustave Garrigou and Odile Defraye), the most ever.


1913 Tour de France, Teams
Although cyclists had started in teams previously, the rules had forbidden them to work together against other cyclists. In 1913, this changed, and cyclists from the same team were allowed to work together. The organisers preferred riders to ride solo, so they added a rule that if a cyclist would win a stage with a margin of 20 minutes or more, he would not only get his own prize money, but also the half of all the other cyclists' prize money of that stage.


1913 Tour de France, Teams
The first African cyclist took part in the Tour de France in 1913: Ali Neffati from Tunisia. Neffati had been discovered by Tour organiser Henri Desgrange, and would later become a driver at l'Auto, the newspaper that organised the Tour de France.


1913 Tour de France, Race overview
In the first stages, not much happened in the overall classification, as most cyclists were saving their energy for the Pyrenees. The stage was won by Italian Giovanni Micheletto in a sprint. Micheletto was not part of the first group in the second stage, and thus lost his lead. There were four cyclists who had been in the lead group in both stages, and they were jointly leading the Tour.


1913 Tour de France, Race overview
The most important event occurred in the third stage, when former winner Lapize stopped the race; either because he considered his earning insufficient, or because he thought his team was not good enough.


1913 Tour de France, Race overview
The crucial stage proved to be the sixth. At the start of the sixth stage, last year's winner Defraye led the general classification, some 5 minutes ahead of Eugène Christophe. In that sixth stage, the first mountains were climbed. Defraye was dropped quickly, and Christophe led the race. Christophe came up first on the Aubisque, and in second place behind Philippe Thys on the Tourmalet. On the way down from the Tourmalet, Christophe was hit by a race vehicle, and his fork broke, rendering his bike unusable, and the rules said that he had to repair it himself.


1913 Tour de France, Race overview
He walked more than 10 km down to the next village, and found a place where he could repair his bicycle. He worked on it for over three hours, being watched by race officials who made sure that he was not helped by anyone. When Christophe asked a small boy, of seven years old, to work the bellows, he was fined with ten minutes. During this repair, angry with the draconian rules, he snapped: (at the hungry race commissaires) "If you're hungry, eat charcoal! [ ...] I am your prisoner and you will remain my wardens till the end". After his bicycle was fixed, he rode away and finished the stage, 3 hours and 50 minutes later than the stage winner Thys. Christophe's chances to win the 1913 Tour de France were over.


1913 Tour de France, Race overview
After that sixth stage, Marcel Buysse was in the lead. In the ninth stage, Buysse had mechanical failure with a broken handlebar, and finished almost three and a half hours after stage winner Lambot. This was the end of the chances for Buysse for the victory. Buysse did not give up, and won four of the remaining five stages.


1913 Tour de France, Race overview
The lead had transferred to Thys now. In the last stages, the race focussed on the duel between Petit-Breton and Thys. In the 14th stage, Petit-Breton fell down and stopped the race. In the same stage, Thys also fell down and remained unconscious for a while. When he was conscious again, he was helped to repair his bicycle. All help was illegal in 1913, but the jury only gave him a 10-minute penalty. Thys finished the stage, and kept 8'37" in front of Gustave Garrigou in the general classification. In the final stage, Thys stayed with Garrigou, and so won the 1913 Tour de France.


1913 Tour de France, Results, General classification
For each cyclist, the times they had needed in each stage was added up for the general classification. The cyclist with the least accumulated time after the last stage was the winner. Of the 140 starting cyclists, 25 finished.


1913 Tour de France, Results, General classification
In the points system that had been used in previous years in the Tour de France, Garrigou would have won the race with 45 points, followed by Buysse with 48 points; Thys would have been third with 57 points.


1913 Tour de France, Results, Other classifications
Camillo Bertarelli, ranked 8 in the general classification, became the winner of the "isolés" category. The "isolés" classification was calculated in the same way as the general classification, but only the isolated cyclists (not part of a team) were eligible.

The organising newspaper l'Auto named Philippe Thys the meilleur grimpeur. This unofficial title is the precursor to the mountains classification.

1913 United Kingdom tornado outbreak
The 1913 United Kingdom tornado outbreak was an outbreak of Tornadoes, particularly over England and Wales, on 27 October 1913. The most notable tornadoes occurred in South Wales, where at least two tornadoes had winds of at least 160 miles per hour (260 km/h). This is equal to an F3 on the Fujita Scale. One of the tornadoes, at Edwardsville, Merthyr Tydfil, resulted in 6 deaths and hundreds of injuries. This is the deadliest-known tornado to occur in the United Kingdom. Other notable tornadoes struck in Cheshire and Shropshire.


1913 United Kingdom tornado outbreak, Meteorological background
A rapidly deepening low-pressure extratropical cyclone tracked quickly south on the afternoon of 27 October. The central pressure of the system was 990 millibars (29 inHg) at midnight on the 27th, deepening to 975 millibars (28.8 inHg) by 18:00. The low pressure helped to sustain a stream of strong southerly winds, as in days previous, sustaining significantly warmer than average conditions. Temperatures were widely reported over 21 °C (70 °F) in places. Active weather fronts arriving from the Atlantic ocean resulted in the instability needed to cause such tornadoes. The low pressure brought cooler air to the country by the 31st.


1913 United Kingdom tornado outbreak, Tornadoes, Other tornadoes
Other tornadoes were reported in England at Blackpool, Craypole, Peckforton, Oundle, Exeter, Collumpton and Worthing. The final tornado of the outbreak was reported at Witcombe Park, Gloucester at around 17:20 on 28 October. A tornado was reported in Scotland at Crathes and in Ireland at Crosshaven. However, all of these tornadoes were generally weak.


1913 United States House of Representatives elections
There were twelve special elections to the United States House of Representatives in 1913, during the 62nd United States Congress and 63rd United States Congress.


1913 United States Senate election in Georgia
The first election under the Seventeenth Amendment to the United States Constitution was a late election held on June 15, 1913. The election was late because two of the candidates were hospitalized due to illness and could not campaign as required.


1913 United States Senate election in Georgia
Augustus Octavius Bacon was first elected by the Georgia General Assembly in 1894. His most recent term had ended on March 3, but the Legislature had failed to elect a successor. The Governor of Georgia then appointed Bacon to begin the term starting March 4.


1913 United States Senate election in Georgia
Bacon was re-elected in this late election, running unopposed. This was despite the General Assembly not taking action to ratify the constitutional amendment.


1913 United States Senate election in Georgia
He would serve only until his death on February 14, 1914, leading to another interim appointment and eventual special election.


1913 United States Senate election in Massachusetts
The 1913 United States Senate election in Massachusetts was held during January 1913. Incumbent Republican Senator Winthrop Crane retired and was succeeded by Republican John Wingate Weeks.


1913 United States Senate election in Massachusetts

1913 United States Senate election in South Carolina
The 1913 South Carolina United States Senate election was held on January 28, 1913, when the South Carolina legislature met and unanimously ratified the results of the August 27, 1912 primary. Incumbent Senator Ben Tillman was re-elected to a fourth term in office.


1913 United States Senate election in South Carolina
Prior to the ratification of the 17th Amendment to the United States Constitution, U.S. Senators were elected by the state legislature. However, the Democratic Party of South Carolina organized primary elections for the U.S. Senate beginning in 1896 and the General Assembly would confirm the choice of the Democratic voters. Tillman handily defeated former U.S. Representative W. Jasper Talbert and businessman Nathaniel B. Dial in the primary election.


1913 United States Senate election in South Carolina, Democratic primary, Campaign
Ben Tillman, a Senator since 1895, drew opposition in the Democratic primary for the first time during his career. He had long avoided any opposition because of his influence in the Democratic Party in the state, but by 1912 he had moderated his positions and lost the radical edge that had allowed him to build up a hard core following of support. The radicals in the state electorate had thrown their support to Coleman Livingston Blease in the gubernatorial election of 1910 and the Bleasites were determined to knock his chief opponent, Tillman, out of office. W. Jasper Talbert emerged as the candidate of the Bleasites and Nathaniel B. Dial entered the race as an alternative to the two. The voters of the state split their support between the Tillmanite and Bleasite factions as both Tillman and Blease won their respective primaries.


1913 United States Senate election in South Carolina, Election
The General Assembly met and ratified the choice of the primary voters, re-electing Tillman for a third term.


1913 United States Senate elections in Illinois
Two United States Senate elections (a regular and a special election) were held in Illinois on March 26, 1913. The two elections were interconnected through a compromise made to elect a Democrat in the regular election and a Republican in the special election.


1913 United States Senate elections in Illinois
These were the last elections to U.S. Senate from Illinois to take place by vote of state legislature, as the Seventeenth Amendment to the United States Constitution would make all subsequent U.S. Senate elections conducted by a popular vote.


1913 United States Senate elections in Illinois
The elections saw the election of Democrat J. Hamilton Lewis to a full term in the state's class 2 United States Senate seat in a regular election, and Republican Lawrence Y. Sherman to the state's class 3 United States Senate seat in a special election.


1913 United States Senate elections in Illinois, Background and procedure
At the time, since the Seventeenth Amendment to the United States Constitution was yet to take effect, U.S. Senate seats were filled by votes of state legislatures.


1913 United States Senate elections in Illinois, Background and procedure
In the November 1912 state elections, the Republicans lost control of the Illinois General Assembly due to the Republican / Progressive split. But while the Democrats held a plurality of the Illinois General Assembly, they did not have a majority. The General Assembly took up the matter of electing the senators on February 1. The General Assembly therefore failed to elect until after the new congress began.


1913 United States Senate elections in Illinois, Background and procedure
On March 26, in a compromise arranged by governor Dunne, the General Assembly elected Democrat J. Hamilton Lewis to fill the full-term seat and Republican Lawrence Y. Sherman to fill the two remaining years of a vacancy that had just recently opened. This broke a deadlock on the matter that had been in place since February 11.


1913 United States Senate elections in Illinois, Party primaries
Non -binding preference primaries were held April 9, 1912, which informed the legislature of the preferred candidate of voters in each party's primaries. They coincided with binding primaries held for other offices.


1913 United States Senate elections in Illinois, Party primaries
While the party was eligible to hold a primary, no Socialist primary was held for the office of U.S. Senator.


1913 United States Senate elections in Illinois, Regular election (class 2 seat)
On April 12, 1912, five-term Republican incumbent Shelby Moore Cullom lost renomination to Lieutenant Governor of Illinois Lawrence Y. Sherman in the Republican "advisory" primary, where the voters expressed their preference for senator but the decision was not binding on the General Assembly, which made the actual choice. Cullom had suffered politically over his support for the other Illinois senator, William Lorimer, who was embroiled in a scandal over alleged bribery in his 1909 election to the Senate.


1913 United States Senate elections in Illinois, Regular election (class 2 seat)
After his defeat, Cullom withdrew his name from consideration by the General Assembly.


1913 United States Senate elections in Illinois, Regular election (class 2 seat)
The Illinois General Assembly eventually elected the Democratic nominee, Congressman J. Hamilton Lewis March 26, 1913, who had also won the Democratic advisory primary, as the sole candidate on the ballot. Before their conclusive March 26 vote, after a compromise was stricken, the Illinois legislature had twelve-times cast deadlocked ballots for the class 2 senate seat.


1913 United States Senate elections in Illinois, Special election (class 3 seat)
Three months after the primary in which Sherman defeated Cullom, the U.S. Senate invalidated William Lorimer's 1909 election and declared the seat vacant. The Illinois Attorney General, William H. Stead determined that the General Assembly had failed to properly elect Lorimer in 1909 and so the Governor could not appoint a replacement. As a result, the General Assembly had a second Senate seat to fill.


1913 United States Senate special election in Maryland
A Special Election to the United States Senate was held in Maryland on November 4, 1913 to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Sen. Isidor Rayner (a Democrat). The election was the second Senate election (after a June 1913 late election in Georgia) held under the Seventeenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, which required direct popular election of senators, but was the first contested by multiple parties.


1913 United States Senate special election in Maryland
Blair Lee I, a Democrat and former state senator, became the second U.S. Senator directly elected by the people of a state under the Constitution's provisions (although other states had previously elected senators indirectly through party primaries and popular elections, which were then ratified by the state legislature). The election led to a controversy when the incumbent who had been appointed to fill Rayner's seat, Republican William P. Jackson, refused to give up his seat to Lee. Jackson claimed that "since he had been appointed under the original constitutional provision, he was entitled to hold his seat until the regularly scheduled adjournment date of the Maryland state assembly."

A last quarter burst from St Kilda had them within two points when George Morrissey goaled.

David McLaren, the incumbent Mayor, was defeated by John Luke by a relatively narrow margin, becoming the new Mayor of Wellington. The polling was conducted using the standard first-past-the-post electoral method.


1913 Wellington City mayoral election, Background
Incumbent Mayor David McLaren sought a second term, opposed only by former MP John Luke. To avoid a repeat of the previous election, a conscious effort was made to ensure only a single "anti-Labour" candidate for the mayoralty. The strategy worked, although Luke's slim majority of only 500 votes coupled with the fact that McLaren's share of the vote went substantially up caused real alarm. In addition the two sitting Labour councillors were re-elected with Labour's proportion of votes increasing there as well. This confounded expectations of a strong anti-Labour backlash at the polls following the Waihi miners' strike only months before.

1913 Whitechapel by-election, Candidates
Sir Stuart Samuel had been Liberal MP for the seat since 1900 and the seat had been Liberal since it was created in 1885. He was opposed by Edgar Browne, who had been his Unionist opponent in December 1910.


1913 Whitechapel by-election, Campaign, Votes for women
The National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies, following the adoption of their new policy to not support Liberal candidates, chose not to support either candidate and instead opened a local office from which to carry out propaganda work. The smaller Women's Freedom League, a breakaway group from the Women's Social and Political Union who favoured direct action but opposed violence, also set up a local campaign office. However, the WFL's position on by-elections was specifically anti-government, so they campaigned against the return of the Liberal candidate Samuel and thus by definition in support of his Unionist opponent, Browne.


1913 Whitechapel by-election, Aftermath
Samuel retired from politics in 1916 and the Liberals held the resulting by-election unopposed.


1913 Wick Burghs by-election
The Wick Burghs by-election was a Parliamentary by-election.

The by-election took place during the third anniversary of the Liberal Government's re-election of December 1910. It was thought to be a key indicator to the outcome of the following general election anticipated to take place in 1914-15.


1913 Wick Burghs by-election, Vacancy
At the January 1910 general election Robert Munro was elected Member of Parliament for Wick Burghs. In 1913 Munro was sworn of the Privy Council and appointed Lord Advocate by H. H. Asquith. This meant he had to resign his seat and seek re-election.


1913 Wick Burghs by-election, Electoral history
The constituency was created in 1832 and returned Liberals at every election until 1892 when, following a split in the Liberal Party over Irish Home Rule, the seat was won by a Liberal Unionist. Unionist candidates won four consecutive general elections, including 1906 when the Liberal Party swept the country. Against the trend, Munro gained the seat for the Liberals at the January 1910 general election and held it at the December General Election;


1913 Wick Burghs by-election, Campaign
Polling day was set for 8 December. Nominations closed on 1 December to confirm a 2-party contest.


1913 Wick Burghs by-election, Campaign
The issue of Irish Home Rule was again at the top of the political agenda as the Liberal Government had introduced the Third Irish Home Rule Bill. The Unionist dominated House of Lords had rejected the bill for a second time and the Liberals were preparing to introduce it for the third and final time. Leading Ulster Unionist politician Sir Edward Carson opposed the bill and sought to rally opposition in Ulster through the creation of the Ulster Volunteers a paramilitary group, armed with weapons supplied by Germany.


1913 Wick Burghs by-election, Campaign
He called on Unionists to use "all means necessary" to oppose the British Government. Liberals like David Lloyd George criticised Unionists and Carson in particular for acts of treason. Munro received a telegram of support from Lloyd George in which he also took the opportunity to attack Unionist double standards on religious questions: "It is rather sickening to see the upholders of sectarian privileges in England and Wales profess to be the champions of religious equality for Ireland. I wish English and Scottish Tories would concede to English and Welsh Nonconformists the same measure of religious equality and fair play as will be guaranteed to Ulster Episcopalians and Presbyterians under the Home Rule Bill."


1913 Wick Burghs by-election, Result
There was a swing of 4.5% to the Liberals, whose candidate Robert Munro increased his majority over the Unionist;


1913 Wick Burghs by-election, Result
The increase in the Liberal majority was hailed with exultation by Liberals as a triumphant condemnation of 'Carsonism'. Munro's majority of 443 was the largest ever recorded in the history of the constituency. Munro's explanation was that "the election had been fought on Home Rule first and last".


1913 Wick Burghs by-election, Aftermath
Carson was to eventually back down and along with his Irish Unionist colleagues, supported an amendment to the Home Rule Bill for the "temporary exclusion of Ulster". A General Election was due to take place by the end of 1915. By the autumn of 1914, the following candidates had been adopted to contest that election;


1913 Wick Burghs by-election, Aftermath
Due to the outbreak of war, the election never took place. By the 1918 general election, Wick Burghs was abolished as part of the boundary review and the burghs split between Caithness and Sutherland and Ross and Cromarty. Munro was elected for the lowland seat of Roxburgh and Selkirk. Mackenzie did not stand again.

The Giants thus became the first National League team since the Chicago Cubs (1906–1908) to win three consecutive pennants. They were also the second club (following the Detroit Tigers 1907–1909) to lose three consecutive World Series; and remain the last to do so.


1913 World Series
The Series itself was a face-off between two teams that later became crosstown rivals in Oakland and San Francisco. The Oakland A's won again in a four-game sweep in the 1989 World Series, famous for the earthquake that struck before Game 3, which is the last World Series victory for the A's.

The tribes were never subdued, and in peace talks of the valley, which ended the operations of the Afghan expedition in 1912, they dictated the terms. The result was troubling to the British districts neighboring the valley because the outlaws who carried out the raids were safe when they made their escape into Khost.
