JERSEV CITY, N. J.. Oct. 20.
New Jersey registered at the polls an
emphatic No to woman's appeal for
the ballot. Indications shortly after
midnight were that the white and
yellow banners of "votes for women"
had fluttered down to defeat in each
f the state's 21 counties and that the
majority against adoption of the con
; ytitutional amendment to enfranchise
women was between 50,000 and 60,
000. .
Undaunted by the overwhelming
tide against them, suffrage leaders
announced tonight that they would
start tomorrow with new plans Intent
upoil pledging candidates for the leg
islature to permit their, to vote neit

have two weeks in which to make
their campaign effective. Candidates

His stand however, and the vigorous
campaign waged by the women to the

vote against adoption of the amend

vote was more than 2 to 1 against the

WASHINGTON, Oct. 20 President
Wilson today signed an embargo pro
clamation against shipping arms and
ammunition to Mexico to opponents
of Carranxa. In a letter to Secretary
of the Treasury McAdoo directing the
enforcement of the embargo by cua
toms officials the president suggested
an exception In favor of Carranxa. "I
have found there exists in Mexico
conditions of domestic violence pro
moted by the use of arms and muni
tions of war procured from the Uni
ted States," the letter stated. "I
hereby admonish all cltixens of the
United states and every person to ab
stain from violation of the joint reso
lution of congress, and 1 hereby warn,
them that all violations will be rigo
rously prosecuted."
In a letter from Lansing to the
president, permission for Carranxa to
receive arms is requested. "This In
formation before this department,"
the letter said, "leads me to believe
that the recognized defacto govern
ment of Mexico has now effective con
trol of all ports of entry except those
along the international border in Chi
huahua. Sonora. and the Lower Ca.IL
fornia ports." For the present Car
ranxa wont be allowed to have arms

prescribed.
