Digging an occasional fact from tlio

here declared today that Roosevelt's
lead In California has been cut to
about 450 votes through the receipt
ot returns from some isolated north
ern counties,
More than sixty precincts are yet
to be heard from in either nit offi
cial or unofficial way. A large ma
jority of these aro tor Wilson, and
the democrats, If their earlier count

still has an off chance of
carrying the state exclusive of tho

foot' to throw out hundreds of bal
lots which are alleged to have been
tampered with.
Tho Roosevelt forces , apparently
are undismayed by the - returns
