the republicans admit they are losing
here in two directions the labor vote

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1. No arms

marine Ucutschland and apparently
the vessel was in the condition she
left Ualtlmoro several weeks ago, cus
toms authorities at New London to
day reported to the treasury depart

may, but is not expected, to change
the view now tnken by customs au

NEW YOltK, Nov. 1. The Ameri
can Smelting and Refining company
today issued a quarterly dividend
of 1 H per cent on the common stock,
establishing that issue on a regular
6 per cent basis. Previous ipiarterly
dividends this year were declared in
the form of 1 per cent and half per

One of the hardest ef the many
hard blows dealt the campaign for
Mr. Hughes among- women is the
announcement that Miss Jane Ad
dams, "America's Foremost Citizen
and one of Theodore Roosevelt's most
effective lieutenants ir. 1912, is sup
porting President Wilson.
The disposition of Miss Addam's
first Presidential vote, wl h shi is
to cast in Chicago on November 7 is
naturally a matter of intencc inter
est to every righteous American.
Miss Addama cai.ie into promin
ence in the councils of the Progres
sive nnrtv when Roosevelt fi-st an
nounced his divorce from Republican
spoilsmen and representatives of spe
cial privilege a separation since an
nulled by mutual agreement. She
became a member of the Committee
of Nine which Roosevelt named as his
special advisers in the 11)12 campaign
and had an important part in drafting-
the statement of Progressive
principles, particularly tha sections
devoted to social justice, which
played such an important part in the
Progressive Party platform. It was
she who first put -he phrases "social
justice" and 'industrial justice" into
the American vocabulary.
Miss Addams is chairman of the
National Woman's Peace Party. She
feels that because of the humanitari
an measures he has put unon the
statute books, and his stanu lor
hrnad hnmnnitv in nil international
affairs. President Wilson should re
