PREPARED TO NAB PENNSYLVANIANS WHO BREAK ELECTION LAW Government to Push Cases Against Violators for First Time in History of State ORDER FROM WASHINGTON The United States Government Is ready to prosecute any oter, election ofilcer, polit ical lieutenant or political leader violating tho election laws In Pennsylvania tomorrow. ' For the first time In the history ot the State, Federal oversight over the election Is nssured, based on tho precedent established by Judge Anderson, at Indianapolis, who sent 28 ballot-box BtuKers, oto buyers and po licemen ot Terro Haute to Fort Leaven worth PrlBon for terms varying from six months to three years. Tomorrow a United States Senator and Congressmen wijl be nominated by popular vote. Heretofore all election frauds have been prosecuted In State courts. The vio lator of election laws after tomorrow will face a sterner tribunal, the United States courts. A high official of the Government announced today that word had been re ceived from Washington to keep a close eye on the election Jn Pennsylvania, and should fraud be perpetrated an answer must be made to the Government. Francis Fisher Kane, United States Dis trict Attqrney for Eastern Pennsylvania, when Interrogated regarding the report, re fused to discuss the election. When asked If prosecutions would be made should evi dence0 be obtained he replied, "I am at liberty to say that a full and sympathetic hearing will be given." Bringing election violators to the bar ot Federal courts and obtaining their convic tion was Inaugurated by a band of civic fighters In Terre Haute, Ind., where gross election frauds were prepetrated for years. A corrupt organization, backed by the whisky ring, for years controlled the Ten derloin of that city, bought votes, coerced -otera and by all manner of corruption maintained Its power. The county and State courts were con trolled by the organization. Judge Ander son, of the Federal district of Indiana, was petitioned to hear the case In January, 1914, After one of the biggest legal bat tles In the Middle West, he claimed Juris diction. Following a lengthy trial the Mayor, Chief of Police, a half dozen ward leaders and officeholders were convicted and sentenced last year. They are at Fort Leavenworth today. It was made clear today that the Govern ment can only take action when a definite, conspiracy is shown In the election of a Senator or member of the House. No pros ecution can be brought against those who perpetrate fraud for State, county or city officials. The prosecutions In Terre Haute were brought under Sections 19 and 37 of the Penal Code. Evidence was presented show, Ing that! ttie organization leaders had "con spired" to defeat one candidate and foist a, certain candidate on the Government this was construed by the court to be a fraud committed against the United States. BASEMENT PLAN PflOWN AS HIS TRIAL BEGINS Continued from fate On then shifted bis Intent gaze back to the face ot Sir Frederick or to the spectators. When not engaged In making notes he traced roses on bis pad. Sir Roger seemed to, enjoy the Intense public Interest Which his trial created. This interest as "heightened In the, British Isles, and extended beyond them to the uprising in Ireland and the execution of the Sinn Fein, leaders. ' As the trial jirtKMded a roport became current tbiit Casement had wade u. locg statement to the Authorities which might shorten tho proceedings. While Sir Roger was by far tho chief centre of Interest, the crowd showed con siderable curiosity toward hlu codefendant Bailey, who was said to hae made the Journey from Germany to Ireland in a sub marine. The first witness for the Crown was Police Inspector Pajkcr Parker testified that when Casement was first arrested he made no attempt to sae himself, but In sisted that Bailey was innocent. "Sir Roger CaBement drew a pension from the Government until September 30. 1914, when It was withdrawn." said the At torney General. ''The defendant was then In Germans'. The part he was destined to play was that of a man who was willing and hoped to bo able to seduce from nl leglance to the King the Irish prisoners nt Llmborg camp, whom he advised and lec tured. The evidence shows that In Jan uary and February of 1915 Casement re peatedly nddressed the prisoners." BAILUV'S STATEMENT. The Attorney General read a statement from Bailey, who declared he hnd Joined a brigade to see if It was possible to get out of Germany. After visiting the Ger man War Office Bailey was told to be ready to travel He was taken nboard the sub marine U-19, which set out from German waters. "Upon sighting Tralee, Ireland, I was told that the visit was In connection with the Irish Volunteer movement," said Bail ey's statement. "As the submarine neared the coast Sir Roger Casement and myself were transferred to a collapsible boat, which overturned In the surf. I waded ashore and then went back to fetch arms. Sir Roger Casement and myself then reached Tralee, where my companion went to a newspaper office and asked tt the com manding ofilcer had arrived. He was told no.' "I was born In Dublin and was a mem ber of the original expeditionary force In France, being captured by the Germans in September, 1914." In detailing further the scope of Sir Roger's activities the Attorney General said: "Casement's conduct required a great deal to Justify it. At the Llmburg camp Case ment introduced himself as organizer of tho Irish volunteers. He stated he was form ing an Irish brigade and Invited Irish prisoners of war to Join. Casement empha sized In his advices that everything was to be gained for Ireland by Germany's win ning the war. All Joining the Irish bri gade, Casement said, would be sent to Ber lin to be the guests ot the German govern ment." Sir Frederick said that the Irish prison ers treated the overtures of Blr Roger very contemptuously. The Irish knight was hissed and booed out of camp, the Muneter fuslleera being particularly resentful. a "It Is reported that Casement was' only saved from violence by the Intervention of the Prussian guards,", said the Attorney General.- Sir Roger smiled as he glanced at Bailey. Sir Frederick, cpntlnued. "The Irish prisoners who refused the proposals had their rations reduced. The few who accepted were given certain priv ileges and provided with green uniforms. Bailey was one of these." The Attorney General hereupon unfolded and held up. tf) view a flag which had been found n the collapsible boat In which Case ment and Bailey made their Way to shore on the Irish, coast, together with maps and a flashlight. It was green, with a yellow centre, and bore an inscription. Sir Frederick went on; "Casement was found by th'e police concealed In McKInna's fort When cliallenged he gave the name of Richard Morton, of Denham, Buchshlre, and said he was an author. After being taken to the Ardford barracks he dropped a paper containing a. code. He .-was then, charged w!h landing arms and ammunition and taken to London, where he disclosed his Identity. Divers discovered Russian rifles ot the- pattern of J905 " The first witness was Corporal John Robinson., of the Royal Army Medical Corps, who. detailed Casement's endeavors to form aa Irish brigade at Uraburg camp In Germany, "Casement declared that "he believed Ger many was nng to win the war. and, tn lw w ia ireianu w.

Merrltt Tnylos and Mayor Smith. Both declared that thft ob structionists who have been launching anonymous attacks against the loan will be overwhelmed by the loyal cltlsenry qt Philadelphia. The ex-Director nt the same time warned the voters to demand the special loan bal lot when tlloy entered the polls, An anony mous circular which was scattered broad cast over the city today nltncklng the loan he scored ns the work of "sordid Interests, too" cowardly to lend tholr names to their falso statements " . Tho Mayor nlso predicted the passage of the general loan bill for municipal Im provements. Advertisements Inserted in nil tho news papers today by tho "All-Phlladelphln on to Hnrrlsburg" Committee cnll for every registered voter In the city to support the loan bill In the Interests of a greater Phil adelphia. K. J. Lnfferty, chairman of the All-Phlln-delphla Committee, after a careful canvass of the city by members of tho committee, nssured Mayor Smith today that both the $67,100,000 transit nnd port loan bill nnd the general Improvement loan bill would pass tomorrow by majorities of from 00,000 to 18,000. SMITH SCES SUCCESS "Two weeks ngo I was somewhat wor ried about the transit and port and general loan bills, but now I nm Blire of their pas sage," said the Mayor. "I feel confident that both bills will pass by large majori ties, The opposition to the bills wns purely political, nnd this opposition Is by no means strong enough to endanger; loans .upon which tho future growth1 of tho cltv de pends. Many of those who Btnrted out to oppose tho loans have now turned In for them, and the opposition has vvcaKened to a point where It Is no longer dangerous. I bpllore the vast majority of the thinking voters of the city will support both loans and that their success Is certain." With tho last hour of tho fight nt hand the futuro of rapid transit development In Philadelphia rests with the voters at tho polls tomorrow. Tho passage of the transit nnd port lonn'wlll Insure a high-speed sys tem benefiting all sections and every resi dent of tho city; the defeat of the loan bill will leave Philadelphia a decade behind other oltleS In transit facilities. Provision for the city's general progress llkewlso depends upon tho passage of the $47,225,000 loan bill. Upon tho passage of ths loan depends the completion of tho Parkway, the building of .Convention Hall, tho Art Museum, tho Improvement of the Philadelphia General Hospital, the elimina tion of grade crossings and other Improve ments vital to Philadelphia's progress and prestige. Last-minute porsonal appeals for ,the passage of the loan and for real rapid tran sit are being made throughout tho blty by the leaders In the long light. DUTY OF VOTERS. The 30,000 non-partisan voters who can not vote for tho nominees tomorrow have a special duty. It1 Is declared. These voters must go to the polls and there cast n vote for both loan's. They havo the right to vote upon tho loan question, nnd It Is their duty to Join with other men in approving the bills which will make possible Phila delphia's advancement. i Republican voters are pledged to the sup port of both loan bills by their party's plat form. Adopting the personal platform sof Mayor Smith in tfie last campaign, the Re publican City Committee put Itself on rec ord as favoring every Improvement pro vided for in the two loans to go before tho people tomorrow. Each voter who counts himself a true Phlladelphlan must make sure that he re ceives a loan ballot tomorrow, nnd must mark It "Yes" for both loans, If tho loans fall, this city's opportunity will be lost. rTfc i T?rtjfi--I7T,,T-- JTAKII LH KTCWIvTlTt FACTION LEADERS INDORSETRANSfP Headsof Rival Political 0 Sanations Have De- , clared in Its Favor ALL-TOGETHER S P 1 1,'j T dorseinerit to the TayL ran.
