To say so is not necessarily favor ing the governor’s side of the argu ment. It is in the nature of the po litical situation that the Republican candidate cannot reasonably hope for more than a small majority, if any; that the Democratic nominee cannot triumph at all unless he triumphs overwhelmingly. Odds of 3 to 1 on Prisoners In Quebec In Mutiny Tailor Shop Fired, But Montreal Fire men and Police Later Gain Control i St. Vincent de Paul. Quebec, Nov. 4. -(API - Prisoners in the penitentiary on the Isand of Jesus rose in mutiny today and set fire to the tailor shop. A detachment of royal mounted po lice galloped out from Montreal nine miles away, and the Montreal fire department hurried to the assistance of the penitentiary force. The fire was under control an hour later, but order had not been entirely restored. While one group of convicts set the tailor shop another group set up a disturbance In another part of the building to draw the guards away from the flames. A third group cut around outside the tailor shop to slash the fire hose, but prison guar® beat them off. With the arrival of the Montreal firemen, the flames were extinguish ed. The mounted police, with drawn guns', assisted the prison guards in herding the men back to their cells. Hugh Guthrie, minister of justice, issued a statement at Montreal im mediately after he had learned details of the outbreak. Therp were 15 men and two guards in the tailor shop when the fire start ed, he said. That was between 10 and 11 a- m The convicts closed the doors from lhe inside.

C.. was killed early today after a five-mile auto mobile chase by police. The police report said that Mattux was questioned by a policeman who saw him driving in circles in a Brook lyn street. Mattaux drove away and the patrolman turned in an alarm that sent police radio cars converging on his trail. Finally, police began firing and Mattux was shot through the head. At the morgue a friend identified him as McGuinn. saving he was the son of a wealthy retired manufac turer of New Bern. No reason was known as to police for his change of name or for his flight without ap parent reason.

"Many of these are dissatisfied with both Mr. Hoover and Mt. Roosevelt. They may not vote at all or they may vote for the Socialist candidate. Mr. Thomas.
