Oaly Oae Mora Opportunity for Tardy
' Voters.
Complete returns from the several pre
cincts, with the exception of the Second
precinct of the Blxth ward, situated on the
west side of the river, show that approxi
mately two-thirds of the voters registered
during the first three days of registration,
leaving about 2,200 voters to get their names
on the lists on next Saturday, which Is the
last day of registration for tbe election on
Tuesday, November 8,
Both' parties will make a special effort
next Saturday to get out the tardy voters
and see that they register and It Is ex
pected that - the registration boards will
have a busy time that day. Chairman
' Wright of the republican county central
committee has adopted an Ingenious device
to call' the attention of voters to the fact
they must register , this year. He has Is
sued a large number of small, round cards
on which Is printed, "I havo registered.
.nave youj xnese car as are nuacneu Dy.
a small cord to a button on the coat or vest
and hundreds of these could bo seen on the
Streets Saturday. . Belifg on bright yellow
card board they attract attention and have
done much in- reminding" voters that they
bad to register this year or else lose their
vote. . 'y '.
That every person entitled to cast a ballot
on (Tuesday,- November 8, Is required to
register this year4, apparently Is not gen
erally understood 'and despite the publicity
given o tie matter, there are a number of
Voters who Imagine that their previous
registration Is'sufflclent. In' this, however,
they are mistaken, as this, being presidential-
year, every -person entitled to vote is
required to' register anew. "
Returns from the several preclnts for the
first days of registration give the following
figures and the following table shows the

CROWDS ON SUBWAY TRAINS

NEW TORK, Oct. 30. Sightseers crowded
the subwsy for hours this afternoon. They
came from Fifth avenue and Hester atreet.
from Brooklyn and Jersey City and all the
nearby cities, towns and villages," and
many of the rallroada, brought tralnloads
of excursionists from distant places. It
is estimated that 180,000 people rode in
the underground trains during the three
hours, from 1 to ( o'clock this afternoon,
and that of these fully one-quarter were
children. " 1
The plans of. the management were soon
disarranged when the afternoon rush be
gan. Heretofore the two downtown sta
tions at City hall and Brooklyn bridge
have been the points at which the rush
haa occurred, but .today every station on
the line had Ita share of the business and
none of the Sunday-passengers left the cars
till the end of the roiul was reached. As
a result the train aohedule previously ar
ranged was disarranged and locals and ex
presses, filled to capacity, skipped stations
all' the afternoon. The crowds at the sta
tions waited patiently, however, and gave
the police and station men little trouble.
Several short delays occurred.' but during
most of the afternoon - trains were run
under a three-minute headway, The run
ning time waa slow, few of the 1ckI trains
making bettor than fifty minutes on ths
trip from City hall to Harlem, while the

mission of the state, devoted much time to
this work and secured the titles of al
books that are Identified with Iowa author
ship. Something over S00 authors were
thus classified, and the number of books or
oubllcations Is much more. Some of th
are mere pamphlets and others are speclsl
works, but In the general field of literature
the list Is larger than was supposed. A
second edition more complete will be Issued
bv the Iowa Library commission. Among
the authors mentioned are such well known
writer as Hamlin Garland. "Octave

arowth. The union gives to varloua pur
poses. Including two orphan homes In
Omaha, the Rescue home at Dubuque, tho
ir.nni. in Phiomrn and for lealslatlve en
couragement.. .The effort of the union to
have established in Iowa a reformatory for
women has thus far failed of fruitage, but
It, was resolved to continue the work. Much
work Is done In Sunday schools In giving
temperance Instruction and there are 12,600
children In the state under sucn instruc
tion. The Iowa union has gone on record
as favoring the calling of a peace confer
ence by President Roosevelt and for an

The state executive council of Iowa has
set December 20 as the date when the
council will take ub and dispose of all
questions relating to the proposed drainage
of certain lake beds In Iowa and sale of
the land thus reclaimed at - auction. Sur
veys have been made - of five or six con
siderable lakes In the northern part of the
state which It Is proposed shall be con
verted into farm lands. Objection has been
made in nearly every case by persons who

Politics nnd tha Amendment.
It has developed the past few days that
leading members of the democratio state
committee have been using their official
positions to. make war on the biennial
elections amendment to the state consti
tution of Iowa and that other equally
prominent democrats have taken a stand
In opposition to this. The fact that the
party organization . haa been arrayed
against the amendment makes . the issue
somewhat partisan and Indicates that the
democrats generally do. not desire - the
loss of the opportunity of having elections
often.
Many Speakers Out.
About fifty speakers will go out this
week under the auspices of the republican
state central committee to make speeches
In the' campaign. Some 300 meetings are
to be held yet before election. Secretaries

all the candidates for congress are billed

speak twice, and Charles Deneen, candi
date for governor of Illinois, who will
speak once..
Democrats Do Little.
The democrats for the close of the cam
paign make few announcements. They
continue to concentrate efforts in the Seo
ond district, but are making some strides
In the First and Sixth districts, where
they claim the republicans are not har
monious. Jerry B. Sullivan of Ds
Moines, Walter McHenry of Dea Moines
and John T. Denlson of Clarion are on
the stump for the ticket and these are all
that have been sent out by the state com
mittee. Indiana Glva Centennial Dane.

Dakota Schools Beta Centralised.
PIERRE, S. D.. Oct. 80. (Special.)
One of the peculiarities noted In the fig
ures on teachers' statistics, complied by
the state educational department. Is the
fact that while twenty fewer teachers
were employed In the state for 1903 than
for the preceding year, the amount paid
for teachers' wages was more than $100,
900 greater. These figures Indicate that
the policy of centralisation ot schools Is
being carried out Over the state, and that
teachers' wages are being advanced. Many
counties are announcing sch year that
they are having trouble to secure teach
ers, while others And no such trouble at
all. The difference can generally be lo
cated In the difference In monthly pay
and It Is forcing the wages of teachers up
all over the state.

BUFFALO ELEVATOR COLLAPSES
Three Hundred and Seventy Thousand
Bushels of Barley Dropped
Into the Lake.
BUFFALO, Oct. 80. From some cause
that cannot be definitely explained the
Ontario elevator collapsed today and sank
Into the waters of tbe Evans' slip. The
elevator contained about 870.000 bushels of
barley, a large portion of which Ilea at
the bottom of the slip. The loss on the
grain and the building is estimated at
$350,000. Charles Bartholmy, 62 years old,
the elevator auperlntendent, was seriously
Injured.
The Ontario was built fifteen years ago
and had been in active operation all of
thla season. Varloua reasons have been
given as the cause for the collapse, but
as nearly as could be learned it had Its
origin In the weakening of the founds
tlons about the dock. It Is known that
the land about the elevator contains large
deposits of quicksand, and it Is considered
probable that, the fall was due to a set
tling of the earth on the dock side caused
by the action of the water on a bed of
thla quicksand The slip haa been deep
ened during tha last two years and this
also may have weakened the dock foundations.-
It waa reported that an explosion
preceded the collapse, but this could not
be confirmed. Superintendent Bartholmy
waa taken out of tha wreck unconscious.
