Fusion Wins Everything.
New York, Nov. 4. Fusion carried
New York City today, electing : John
Purroy Mitchell - mayor by approxb
mately 75,000 plurality and retaining
control of the important board of es
timates by a safe margin,;,-. "...
Tammany Hall's nominee; . for the
mayoralty. Edward E. McCall,- was
defeated by one of the biggest plu
ralities ever- given against a 'candi
date of the organization . and as . late
returns came in it looked as" if Tam
many might not even save the New
York county offices. The . big. -vote
for Mitchell pulled . through by. nar-
rower margins the -fusion candidates
for president of the board of aldermen
and comptroller, George C. McAneny
and William A. Prendergast, against
whom the Independence League, as
well as Democratic organization can
didates we're running.
Apparently, with the" exception of
Assemblymen in? the districts . which
usually go Democratic and minor' bo
rough officers, the opposition to fusion
elected only one of its nominees,
Maurice E. Connolly, for" borough
president of Queens. The fusionists
elected borough presidents in Brook
lyn, the Bronx;; and . Richmond, and
apparently also-in . Manhattan. The
result thus ' indicated would leave
Tammany but one vote out of the 16
in the board of estimate, - which con
trols the city's purse. A fusion ma
jority in the board-, of aldermen also
seems assured. . . . . - ' . .
In the Sixth Assembly district Wil
liam Sulzer, recently deposed as- Gov
ernor, was elected on the Progressive
ticket. .... v .
Tammany . leaders early conceded
me eiecuon or Mitcnel, out it was
not until nearly 11 o'clock , that they
would . concede the board of estimate
to fusion . -
"It looks as If we , had Jost every
thing," Secretary Thomas Smith, of
Tammany Hall, finally admitted. -. i
unaries aiurpny, leader ot Tam
many Hall, .followed shortly with a
brief statement: -..
- "The result speaks for itself,", lie
said, "Mitchel has - been elected hy
a majority of the. voters. His oppo
nents join, in the Wish that he may
have a successful administration and
hope that it will-be of substantial
benefit to the city ."t- , - -.
McCall Send Congratulations.
Former Judge McCall, the Tamma
ny candidate, retired early. He took
the announcement of his 'defeat ealm-
.ly when told over-; the. telephone' that
the returns spelled Mitchell by a big
majority. , - ' ' ; Jw
"Is that so?" said -Mr. McCall. "I
have been playing golf all day , and I
am, tired. I will send a telegram of
congratulation toV Mr. MitcheU and

HARVESTER CASE CONTINUES

ny Property Worth Over
Sixty Million Dollars.
. St Paul," Minn., Nov. '4. Judge
William D; McHaugh, fighting the
government's suit for dissolution of
the International Harvester Company,
today f in the -United States' District
Court pictured the -concern as' a great
educational and beneficial force. ! He
assigned ttf;GeorgeW. Perkins credit
for'uiis; achievement. ' '
. "One hundred and twenty millions
of capital .wefe"put into this concern,"
he said,; "and of this amount, one-half,
160,000,000 of . stock7was issued for
cashi The rest was put aside to cov
er, the properties of the various large
concerns1 that went, into it tt
"Now I ' .desire to inipressr, upon this
court that this 160,000,000 in property
tctually .. existed. The most '' elaborate
ppraisal . ever, made ; in this" tsountry
was made :on the properties of the
firms about to enter the International
Harvester Company. It was found
that these properties were worth more
than $60,000,000, more than the stock
issued to cover them."
Judge. ; McHugh attacked the gov
ernment's charge that the subject of
foreign, trade was an afterthought He
declared that the naming of the com
pany -was- done particularly with a
view toithe matter of foreign trade. v
Edward A. Bankcroft, of Chicago,'
general- counsel for the International
Harvester Company, followed Mr. Mc
Hugh. v- He became sarcastic in his
attack ron the Department of Justice's
brief; "said there jvas no evidence; to
sustain six or seven charges and al
leged - that, five of t them had been
dropped out of the case and had not

BRYAN DENIES THAT
ULTIMATUM ISSUEI
DISCUSS THE CAUCUS IDEA
Few Remaining Senators Want It to
; Find Out Progress Currency Bill
Has Made in Committee. :
Democrats Firm.
-Washington, Nov. 4 The movement
for a Senate Democratic ! caucus to
discuss the, administration Currency
bill gained momentum today in the
gossip among the few. Senators left
in Washington. ...
"Dissatisfaction with- the tentative
decision of the Banking and Currency
committee to reduce from 12 to four
the number of ; regional -'banks planned
in the new system was given as. the
ground for the proposal to call a cau
cus. .This decision of .the committee
has , aroused those Senators who are
most ardent in support of the admin
istration plans.' . ' .
- "Sopae-of the Democrats outside of
the Ranking and Currency committee
are anxious ' to know - just what, the
committee is 4oIng" ..said Senator
Hoke Smith; of Georgia, today. "Fqj
that reason t a caucus' has been sug
gested ;as a means of informing the
Democrats as to just" what is going
on in the committee. I think a cau
cus would impress the members with
the strength of the opposition to the
reduction of. the number of regional
banks to four. There should be eight
or nine banks and we will not con
sent to a lrsser number."
Senator Smith said that he did not
think-any attempt would be made to
make .the. caucus binding, on Demo
cratic Senators to vote for any partic
ular bill.

WILSON IN mi JERSEY
Admitted in Informed Quarters that
Negotiations Have Been Proceed
ing in Pursuance of Presi
dent's Plan. - .
Washington Nov. 4. The Mexican
situation was -! the subject of wide
spread comment in Washington today
but the day's developments In official
quarters added little of a definite or
tangible character concerning the ex
act status of affairs.: ' .
; The reports from' Mexco City, that a
new and somewhat Bummary move had
been made by ' the United States to
ward the elimination of General Huer
ta, brought -. no response .from the
State Department : or other official
sources, beyond a brief statement from
Secretary Bryan that no "ultimatum".
had been presented.
" - Whether some other; communication
less drastic than an ultimatum had
been presented, Mr. Bryan positively
declined to state, maintaining that the
government should be free to shape its
course of action in r such affaire with
out, defining each " step through the
press. .-
President Wilson left; early to cast
his vote in New. Jersey, returning late -this
.evening. Meantime Secretary
Bryan remained at the State Depart-,
ment where there were no signs of '
unwonted activity bevond the constant
j inquiries concerning the , reports from

is often popularly used to indicate an
urgent diplomatic co4nmunication, that

The. correspondence already publish- ;
ed shows that President 1 Wilson has
from the Beginning insisted that the
United states government cannot rec-
ognize the , legality of r Huerta's claim
to the Presidentiayoffi.ee' and also that
the so-called elections-held on Octo
ber 26th in Mexico, fall Short of meet--ing
the Washington, view of the re
quirements of the constitution.
Consequently ; it. , was. .said today it
was a logical deduction that this last
note or communication was in the line .
of development pf a policy'.which Pres
ident Wilson has 'consistently pursued
from the beginning and that in sub-
stance it amounted to a rather sharp
reminder to. General , Huerta that tht -United
States government now looked
to him; to meet its . expectations and
give way to- some regularly constitut
ed authority - calculated ltd bring peace .
to Mexico by commanding the hearty -
support or tne Tactions ;now at war.
In communicating : these views, how
ever, it is said, theofficials here are
desirious of ,having thek movements
proceed in a normal and nominal man
ner without an over emphasis, which
would imply that all the resources of '
diplomacy had been exhausted. '
Air of Confidence.'
An air of confidence In official cir
cles is taken to indicate' tnat the Unit
ed t States is satisfied that practically
all the great powers have agreed to
support the administration's policy, at .
least to the extent jot observing a , '
strictly neutral attitude and allowing
the United States to test its own plan
for restoring peace in Mexico.
Secretary Daniels reiterated - today
that three battleships of , the. second '
division of the Atlantic fleet would re'
main in the Mexican gulf waters until
further orders, notwithstanding that -four;
battleships oof the' third division
have gone to Vera Cruz and Tampico. . ;
' Rear Admiral Fletcher, commanding
the second division, ; will take com-'
mand! of the tenure squadron. The'
New Hampshire1 and Nebraska will
keep station at Tainplco. while the " :
Louisiana, ; Michigan -Rhode Island.
Virginia and New Jersey will await
developments off vera Cruz.-, .

Huerta s intimates are familiar with
the terms of the demands which they -
regard as practically .mandatory. The .
