Eugene Zim merman of Cincinnati, railroad man and financier, came home from Europe on the Lusltanln, nil smiles oyer the democratic landslide. Zimmerman said he had been a life-long republi can until the last few months, but that now he was a democrat. "I believe in-protection," said Zim merman, "but a revision of the tariff Is neccessary. In revising the tariff democrats must be careful not to go too far." Zimmerman said he considered the result a rebuke to Koosevelt. "People do not want a dictator. This is the end of Koosevelt. Over on the other side he has been looked on mere ly as an agitator. The people there are not sorry to see him meet the end he did: He Is killed now." VSTi:it RAY IK WONDERING AT KITtA WOK UNWONTED SILENCE Oyster Bay, Nov. 11. Oyster Bay vainly wonders whnt has become of Col. Koosevelt. He is still in complete seclusion at Sagamore Hill.

Hooper May Lota- In Tennessee Memphis, Nov. 11. Keturns from additional counties of east Tennessee Instead of Increasing the majority of Hooper, republican, for governor, as expected are reducing it somewhat. While the total vote has been received from only two-thirda of the counties, all but six have reported actual ma jorities. On the face of the returns Hooper haa a plurality over Taylor, democrat, of 11,564. The legislature on Joint ballot wilt be very cloae. Un official returns indicate that the ad ministration democrats have a major ity In the senate, with two districts in doubt and not Including two repub licans who, it la claimed, will vote with the administration democrats. In the house the fusion democrats and republicans have a majority of six, with one in doubt. It Is said that "the regulars" will contest the election In the first dls trlct because of an alleged illegal ballot. This district gave Hooper 18,718. If the regulars win and the district vote la thrown out, It may wipe out Hooper's majority. Senator R. L. Taylor admits that he had been defeated by W. B. Hoop er, republican and fuslonist, for gov ernor, but he Is quoted as having said that he only made the race In order that the democrats might capture the legislature and that this pur pose had been accomplished. Tslk of a possible contest over the governor ship continues, but no move has been made by the democrats looking to a contest. May Oust Powers.

CONFERENCE WAS ! without result; Dispute Between Lords and Commons May Break Out Again Both Sides Preparing to Fight. London. Nov. 11 The conference which was organized shortly after the death of King Edward In an endeavor to secure a settlement of the acute controversy over the question of the veto power of the house of lords, with reference to measures passed by the house of commons, aggravated by tin refusal of the upper house to pass the budget, has dissolved without reachlnR an agreement. The an nouncement of the failure of tho leaders of the two great political par ties to tlnd a solution for the. dispute which has kept British politics in a turmoil for more than a year, was made by Premier Asqulth last night after a meeting of the cabinet which followed an earlier gathering of the conference. The official statement does not disclose the cause of the dis agreement it simply Buys: "The conference which has been sitting to consider constitutional ques tions has come to un end without ar riving ut un agreement." The statement adds that the mem bers of the conference had decided not to disclose the course 6f the nego tiations of .the causes which led to 'ts termination. It Is understood, how ever, that the rock on which the con ference split, was the question of the composition of the Joint committee of both houses, .that should adjust the differences arising In the future. The liberals insisted that the proportion of the peers on this committee bo such that the will of the house of com mons have a fair chance of prevailing. The conservative members of tho con ference could not agree to the govern ment's proposals and their alternative proved unocceptable to the liberals. The political situation now reverts to the position "it was In before the truce. The conference secured a res pite In the controversy over the most acute Issue of the day during the pe riod of national mourning which gives hope that some means will be found to avoid political complication until after the coronation. How this Is to be accomplished re mains a matter of conjecture and pol iticians are preparing to resume the light. The opinion prevails that the gov ernment will force an Immediate dis solution and get the elections over before Christmas.

Ambassador Wilson was warmly congratulated by business men and others of the American colony person ally and by letter today for the ag gressive stand he has taken In the cri sis. Fears that with the coming of dark ness violence would break out anew proved to be groundless. The presence of numerous squads of mounted po lice with carbine dung acros their tun ks who patrolled the l.uin. streets until late Into the night pre vented anything In the nature of dla order.
