NEW YORK. Nov. 4. Charles E. Hughes closed his campaign for the Presidency in this city tonight with a big meeting at Madison-Square Carden. The speech he delivered was his fifth of the day and followed four In the open air in different parts of the city in the afternoon. Before the night meeting Mr. Hughes rode at the head of a great torchlight procession called a "'wheel of flame," the nine "spokes" ol which converged on Fifth avenue. Many thousands of men. each carrying a flaming torch, were in line as me processions came together, one after another. Fo long was the parade that it was split into two sections, one of which marched up Fifth avenue and the other up Madison avenue to the Garden. The broad avenues were filled with long ribbons of light as the Republican cohorts moved onward. Interspersed at frequent intervals were bands which played martial and patriotic airs. The car in which the candidate rode was the only automobile in line. KlashliKlit Kxploalon Alarm. Much excitement was caused by an explosion in North street only a few feet from Mr. Hughes as he sat in his automobile waiting for one of the di visions of the parade to start. It was believed at first that a bomb had been hurled at the nominee, but Inspector Egan, of the Bureau of Combustibles, declared a photographer's flashlight powder caused the explosion. The only persons injured, the police said, were two newspaper men, who were slightly hurt. With Mr. Hughes in his car were A. B. Hepburn and two detectives. The nominee did not seem perturbed by the incident and smilingly , acknowledged the plaudits of the crowds through which he passed as the paraders moved on, 14 abreast. A drizzling rain, which began falling Just as the parade bejran, dampened somewhat the ardor of the demonstra tion which greeted the Republican can didate, but cheering crowds lined Fifth avenue from the time he passed under the Dewey Arch in Washington Square. Police Arrangements Improved. More adequate and elaborate police arrangements at Madison Square and in that vicinity prevented a repetition of the crush which greeted President Wilson Thursday night. The big build ing was comfortably filled at 7 o'clock, but most of the crowd which had gath-i ered evidently wanted to see the pa rade before seeking admission. Every seat was taken, however, when the blare of bands heralded the candidate's coming. Mrs. Hughes, accompanied by her three daughters. Helen, Catherine and Elizabeth, Mr. and Mrs. Charles E. Hughes. Jr., and several friends were among the early arrivals. They occu pied a box in the center of the garden. The Columbus. O.. Republican Glee Club of 100 voices entertained the crowd inside the garden with patriotic songs prior to the arrival of the Pres idential candidate. William A. Prendergast.' Controller of the city of New York, formally opened the meeting at 7:50 o'clock. Speaking of a re-unlted Republican party he referred to that "wonderful American," Theodore Roosevelt. In stantly the crowd began to cheer and the demonstration lasted several min utes. Demonstration Lants 40 Minutes. Mr. Hughes entered the hall at 9:15 while Governor Whitman was speak ing. The Governor's speech was abruptly ended by a prolonged roar by the audience. The crowd then began to shout "Hughes, Hughes, Hughes; we want Hughes." The nominee waved a small flag. The crowd settled down sfter 15 minutes to a steady rythm of "Hughes, Hughes. Hughes." The cheer ing had been going on 26 minutes when Mrs. Hughes was escorted to the bal cony beside her husband. At this the nudience redoubled Its noise. Charles r.. Hughes, Jr.. and his wife followed then the nominee's daughters, so that the nominee's entire family was grouped around him. At the end of 30 minutes the -crowd had settled down to a steady stamp ing of feet in unison. A band played a verse of "Auld Lang Syne," and when it stopped the cheering and stamping began again. A mammoth flag was unfurled from the ceiling, the band played the "Star Spangled Banner" and the audience ceased cheering to sing. Mr. Hughes was introduced at 9:55 o'clock after the demonstration had lasted 40 min utes. "My voice is worn but my heart is stout and my confidence . is complete that we are marching to a triumphant victory next Tuesday. ' "began Mr. Hughes. "When I first heard your greeting it seemed to sound like a con vention, but after a while I thought It sounded like an election. National Prestige Desired. "It has been quite apparent for some time that the American people were about to record a very decisive con viction. I think I can forecast the determination which is to be recorded next Tuesday. I believe that the American people have determined that this Nation shall regain its interna tional prestige and the rights of Amer ican citizens shall be protected throughout the world. "The way to preserve peace is to de serve respect. It is idle for anyone to say that a criticism of the policies of the present Administration implies either a desire for war or a tendency to war. We propose that this Nation shall stand erect before the world with conscious self-respect, prepared for every emergency, devoted to the ideals of justice, not truculent, not threaten ing, but exhibiting firmness and con sistency and indomitable spirit which will show that we mean what we say and that we say what we mean. "We cannot maintain our peace if we let any nation be under any misappre hension as to the true sentiment of the United States. We ought not to per mit misunderstandings of our true in tentions and firm convictions. We should in that way merely aid in the creation of feelings which would in dubitably breed resentment and in crit ical emergencies out would flame that old spirit of American patriotism. I'nflt Men Merit Distrust. "I say to the American people that they cannot trust an administration which has permitted itself to place at the head of our great bureaus of ad ministration men conspicuously unfit w " i : MISS JEASXETTE ItAXKIJf. Photo by Underwood. Miss Jeannette Rankin decisively swept the state of Montana in the pri maries for nomination for Congress on the Republican ticket. If she is elected she will be the Nation's first feminine Representative.' Here is the platform she expects will land her in Washington: ' National woman suffrage, child welfare, tariff revision, prohibition for state and Na tion, greater publicity in Congressional records. Miss Rankin is small, slight, with light brown hair not red, no her friends say, rather heatedly. She is a graduate of the University of. Mon tana and of the School of Philanthropy of New Tork City. Congress would be greatly benefited by her beauty. Other accomplishments of Miss Rankin are the making of her own clothes stunning ones, too and her hats, and she is also an excellent cook. to discharge the duties thus devolved upon them. "I think that the Amecican people are about to record their dissatisfac tion with the state of our industrial preparedness. I think that they are alive to the very serious situation in which we are placed at this time. It will not do to make light of it. It will not escape attention by various animate versions and destructive criti cisms with regard to American business men." Mr. Hughes referred in detail to the situation in Europe, reiterating his conviction that a protective tariff would be necessary to aid American in dustry in meeting commercial competi tion with Europe after the war. "We are told that a tariff commis sion has been created. I believe in a tariff commission. But a tariff com mission does not pass bills. Congress passes bills. "Our opponents talk as though by creating an agency they had provided a remedy. They created an agency, which can be disregarded as they chodse. Only today, in the face of these economic facts which .should en gage thoughtful attention of the Ad ministration, when every nation in Europe is adopting the protective prin ciple, even Great Britain preparing to aaopi tne protective principle, we nave j protection, without any serious thought with regard to the necessities of safe guarding the interests of American labor and American enterprise. Class Bitterness Denounced. "I am not interested in a country devoted to the special prosperity of a few. That is not my conception of the aim of the administration of our coun try, but when I hear anyone denounce class bitterness, class antagonism and the lawful results of arraying group against group, I want him to take care that he does not stimulate that very class bitterness and class antagonism which is thus justly denounced. "Let us go forward, not in words, not in phrases, not denouncing class an tagonisms while we do our utmost to stimulate them; but let us go forward sincerely desirous to put America in the foreground of achievement because of her sense of social justice, because of her feeling of co-operation, which inspires everyone concerned in her activities. "There has been much talk in these later days about labor vote. I want to say this: You cannot buy the labor vote; you cannot coerce the labor vote; you cannot frighten the labor vote; you cannot impose upon the labor vote by talking about invisible government or by any kind of vilification of mo tives. "If I am elected President, and I expect to be elected President, we shall have an administration which has no interests but the interests of the United States; which shows no pol icy but the supreme welfare of the people of, the United States. It will not be .coerced by threat from any quarter. It will not be deflected by any alien machination. It will not be made to subserve any ulterior purpose. Administration "Will Be American. "We propose to have an American administration meeting the problems of the 30th century in the American manner; that is according to the rule of reason; and thus we expect to have a dignified place in a new rivalry a new commercial rivalry among the na tions of the 20th century. "We have a great opportunity of service, but we cannot avail ourselves of that opportunity if there is any doubt or misunderstanding of our own rights. "We want men to feel, wherever they are. that if they are prosecuting their lawful business: if they are ad hering to the principles which govern them so far as their rights are con cerned under international law, that they have the full protection of their country. "There is no hope for America if American citizen anywhere in the world is not as proud a title as a man can bear." On his way to the meeting- Mr. Hughes reviewed a section of a pa rade which was still passing, five nours after It started.

Women's Leaders Summarize Result of Campaign "Kept l"s Out of War" Slogan Reacts To ward Campaign's Close. CHICAGO, Nov. 4. Managers of the Western Republican and Democratic National headquarters finished their work today and ended the National campaign in the- territory under their direction, which embraces the' states lying between Ohio and the Pacific Coast. Heads of departments in both headquarters left for their homes to vote next Tuesday. Alvin T. Hert. manager of' Western Republican head quarters, issued his final statement on the outcome of the Presidential elec tion, which reads as follows: "Hughes and Fairbanks are sure-to carry the following states, and thereby will secure a lars:e majority in the elec toral college: Maine. New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island. Connecticut. New York. New Jersey, Pennsylvania. Delaware. West Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky. Indiana. Illinois, Mich igan. Wisconsin. Minnesota, Iowa. Mis souri, North Dakota, South Dakota, Kansas, Wyoming. Idaho, Utah, New Mexico, Washington, Oregon and Cali fornia. "The Republican ticket also probably will be successful in Nebraska. There is a good prospect of carrying in addi tion such so-called doubtful states as Colorado, Maryland, Montana, Nevada and Arizona." Suffrage Utrntrn Analysed. Miss Harriet E. Vittum. director of the women's department at Western Republican National headquarters, is sued the following statement analyzing the situation in the 12 woman suffrage "The swing of the last 10 days to Mr. Hughes has been perhaps more notice able In the women's department than in any other. As the reports come daily from the 16 Western states, they are more and more con-lncing. Thousands of women who three weeks ago were accepting Mr. Wilson because they be lieved he has kept us out of war have been influenced by the presentation of facts and perhaps more than anything else by the statement of the Judge-advocate of the Army that legally and technically we are at war. "Out in Wyoming the 'kept-us-out-of-war" cry had its effect until a few weeks ago, when their own boys were ordered to the. front. Idaho and Ne vada were for a while in the doubtful column, but the women of those states have" responded to the cry of their un enfranchised sisters of the East, and their votes will largely go to the sup port of the nian who stands for the Federal suffrage amendment, who has promised to push it through Congress. California Reclnred In I "California early swung Into line, and the women of that state. Republican and Progressive, are working together in a campaign for tho election wf Mr. Hughes." he following statement was Issued John C. Eversraan. secretary of the Republican Congressional Campaign Committee, which has directed its light for a Republican Congress ffom Chi cago: "The next House of Representatives will be Republican by a margin of at least 43. Most of the gains will come from the Western states. This estimate gives the Democrats the benefit of all doubtful districts. I have received re ports Indicating Republicans will gain Congressional seats in Arizona, Ken tucky. California. Colorado. Illinois. Indiana. Iowa, Kansas. Michigan. Min nesota. Missouri, Nebraska. New Jersey. New York. Ohio, Oklahoma. Pennsyl vania. Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Washington, West Virginia 'and Wisconsin." Mrs. George Baw, who has been in charge of the woman's department at Western Democratic National head quarters, issued a statement saying in part: Our hopes are high for victory ior President "Wilson. As the campaign draws to a cloee I think it will be con ceded that one of the outstanding fea tures of this Presidential election has been the fact that the woman vote is the balancing factor. "Women's Vote Held Decisive. 'In many of the 12 voting states, not ably Illinois, it is admitted that 'as vote the women, so goes the etate.' In Illinois, perhaps to a greater extent than In any ptlier state, the women have been and are the unknown quan tity. "Our literature dealing with Presi dent Wilson's record In keeping us out f war and his successful efforts to pass the child labor law and other humanitarian measures has been espe cially sought and our supply has not been adequate to meet the demand. "Our reports, based on trie Dest sources of Information available, have been encouraging from the beginning. At the very outset there was a marKea drift of the Progressive women toward President Wilson. We have tried to get the truth about President Wilson and hia splendid record before the women voters and leave the rest to their understanding of the need of con tinuing his Administration." "Walsh Predicts Victory Senator Thomas J. Walsh, manager of Western Democratic National head quarters, said his detailed tabulated prediction regarding the outcome of the election In the Western etates had been incorporated. In the statement Issued by Vance C. McCormick, chairman of the Democratic National Committee in New York. "I have nothing to add to the state ment that I Issued early In the day. when I said that I believed that Presi dent Wilson will be re-elected by the largest popular vote ever given a can didate tor President in the history of the country," said Senator Walsh.
