Tim Police Fare la Capital.
MKXICO C1TT. Nov. 21.-The Mexican
capital Is tonight without a regular po
lice force. The national palace Is de
serted, save for an occasional attendant
guarding- halls and doorways.
At the headquarters of General
Ohregon, a council of war waa held to
night to decide, on whether the complete
evacuation of the city ordered by Gen
eral Carrania should be compiled with.
All the generals, with the exception of
General Blanco attended the conference,
lie declared, in a algned statement that
he would not desert the capital and leave
It to the marauding bands of Zapata
adherents who occupy the surrounding
suburban towns. . , .
As an evidence of good faith. General
lilenco baa ordered his men to take
possession of. the abandoned police sta
tion and' has appointed Colonel Samuel
Vaeques, chset of police,, the former
chief having abandoned the city and gone
to Carransa's headquarter.

them to a responsible government.
All public buildings, . banks , and other

fore, requested Captain Decker to with

"Owing to the extreme difficulty of
communicatee with Constantinople, ni
further advices have yet been received
Instructions had already been sent to the
ambassador. We are still awaiting the
ambassador's reply to those Instructions."
Officials Hassle.
Before Mr. Morganlhau's dispatch waa
received the White House Issued a state
ment ssylng the firing on the cruiser's
launch waa reported by Captain Decker
as not a hostile art, but that explanations
had been asked from the Turkish govern
ment. Official Washington was putiled
for a time, when It became known at the
Navy department that Captain Decker
had first described th- firing as "an act
not hostile, but unfriendly."
This cryptic phrsse had been omitted,
.Secretary Danlela said, from Captain
Decker's original report, as made public,
because the message was garbled and at
tempts were made to discover whether
or not It should have not read "hostile,"
but friendly. When the cable eompanlea
verified the word as "unfriendly." Sec
retary Daniela came to the conclusion
that Captain Decker had merely ex
pressed a personal opinion and could not
have known the motive of the land
forces In firing the shot.
Mission ftfcvloasly Friendly.
There Is some question in the 'minds of
diplomatists here as to the right of a small
boat to enter a closed port for. by Its
size and equipment. Its mission Is obvi
ously seen to be friendly. There Is no
exact precedent, however, and aa the In
cldont Occurred within the territory of
Turkey the soverlgn right of the latter to
make and enforce its own regulations Is
conceded. Mhould It be necessary for
launches to enter ports In the future It
Is considered that It Is probably that pre
vious arrangements will be made by the
American consulate.
That Smyrna presents almost, a sreclat
rase, as apart from the entire! situation
In Turkey, la the belief of officials fa
miliar' with the prevloua dlspstchcs.
Frequently before Turkey entered tho
war the American consul was anxious
for the safety of his consulate and Amer
icana. Ambassador Morganthau trans

asked for a warship. Since that time
conditions were reported improved.

and about all they will have to do Is
to sign their names and the deed Is done.
Many attempts have been made to
compile figures of the election, but none
of them have been correct end therefore
the official compilation aa shown below
can' be considered as the correct result
of tho election.
The official returns disclose that 2tf,9H

according to the figures. ll,6l for lieu

Governor John H. Morehead polled the
Inrgeat vote among the democrats, 120,304,
while A. O. Thomas for state superin
tendent polled the highest vote among
the republicans, JOB, 312. However, there
were 7.5M more votes cast for governor
than there were for the office of state
superintendent.
The vote on 'governor was the highest
cast for any office on the state ticket,
2.18,717 being cast for all the candldatos
for that office, while but 227,616 voters
cared enough about railway commis
sioner to make a choice, or 11,071 less
than voted for governor.
The vote on the different constitutional
amendments shows a woeful lack of In
terest taken by the people. Over one
third oi those voting, 76,737, did not vote
on the tax amendment. Neither did 80.4IV4
vote on the Jury amendment and 81,643

ing gratification over the governmont'a
advice from Mr. Morganthau.
. "The moat cordial relation! have al
ways existed between the two govern
ments." he said. "And It la the desire of
both, the Ottoman government and, the
people that such relations should always
be maintained. ;
"I should like this opportunity to re
pudiate certain statements ' which have
recently Appeared in the press. Insinuat
ing that rigorous and Intentional censor
ship on the part of the Ottoman authori
ties was the cause of the unnecessary de
lay In the exchange of cablegrams be
tween Turkey and the United States.
This i not so. Censorship undoubtedly
exists- in Turkey at the present moment,
as it does tn othsr countries with whom
Turkey Is at war and through which, the
messMges have to pass, hence the delays.
In proof of this I may mention that this
embassy has not received a single cable
gram for nearly a month. I have no of
ficial Information, even of the existence
of wsr between Turkey and the allies."

Berlin Filled with Many Rumors
of Great Victory Won in the East
BERLIN (Via Romt), Nov. r-Apparently
no decision haa been reached In the
great eastern battle which is being fought
In the territory between the Warta and
the Vistula rivers, although Berlin is
filled with rumors of a great victory. No
authentlo private Information Is available.
The official reports continue to register
a sui.cftMt.lou of tactical successes which
may form the basis for a decisive vic
tory. Qeneral von Illndenburg and Archduke
Chatrlea Francis of Austria seem to have
accepted battle along a line highly favor
able strategically to pressing home a cen
tral attack against the enemy. The roads
In the Russians' rear ara la a wretched
state, the Germans having accomplished
a thorough lob of destruction on their re
tlremeut The Russ'ans are lammed to
gether on three sides and are hampered
greatly In bringing up supplies.
The military critic of Vossiehe Zoitung
considers ths Austro-German bltuatlon aa
extraordinarily favorable and declares It
glvea ground for hope that the Russians
may be rut off entirely from a Una of
.,, retreat. He aavs Wiat the success which
.... io. i! lQa Germans claim near Cienstochowa Is
particularly encouraging.
as it relieves the situation on the gulden
frontier.
The Austrian reports say that the Car
pathian passes are being held strongly
against the Russian advance.
PETROGRAD, Nov. O. The German
column between the Warta and Vistula
rivers, according to today's official re
ports from Russian Poland, comprises six
army corps and presents a front fifty
five miles In extent. The two rivers pre
vent flanking by either side, hence the
fighting consists of straight frontal attacks,-in
which the losses of both armies
are heavy, but neither aide so far has
been able to gain a marked advantage.
The Germans, military observers con
tend, cannot advance further in this
region, since the Russian concentration,
which as delayed by bad roads and by
lack of railroads, now ia complete.
Dispatches received In Petrograd from
Tlflia. Transcaucasia, explain the halt
la the Russian advance toward Koprykoi
was due to the discovery that aa enjlre
Turkish array was massed at Krxeruin.
The Russians are contenting themselves
It is said. lth holding their positions
while awaiting reinforcements.
