tht the Democratic majority of 21 In the

In the last louse the Democrats hail a
majority of 21. ,
In the case bt the Socialist. Meyer Lon
don, of New Torsr, re-elected, his Demo
cratic opponent says that the ottlcltil figures
will defeat Iondon.. but they will not be
available for several days. The doubtful
districts are In Pennsylvania and the de
cision there rests on the soldier vote. Rep
resentative William It. Coleman, of Mc
Keesport, Republican, was elected by a
majority of !0 In his district and his op
ponent claim the soldier vote will over
turn this. Representative A J. Barchneld.
Republican, wis defeated by 1 votes and
he hoped thqvgldler vote win overturn this.
Representative FranV Buchanan, of Il
linois, who. wis Indicted In New York for

with Ahlpmenta of munitions to Europe,

JJOEMOCRATS lldLD SENATES,
Tbo'Unlted" States Senate Is safely Jjemo
crntliv.,Te Indications today were that 'It
would; b6Jlnade up as foITows:
Democrats, 54; Republicans. 42.
Thead figures are based upon the ap
parent success of .Senator Gilbert M. Hitch
cock In Nebraska, where "at first he seemed
to nave been defeated t A. A. Jones, former
Assistant Secretary ot tho Interior, In New
Mexico : J. B. Kendrlck, Dem., In Wyoming,
and Senator Atlee Pomerene In Ohio. Up
until earlyi today the returns available In
dicated that all four had been defeated by
Republicans.
Of the thlrty.flvo United, States Senators
elected Tuesday, seventeen are Democrats
and eighteen Republicans, which with
thlruMven Democratic and twenty-four
Republican hold-overs give the Democrats
a majority of twelve In the next Senate.
r The present Senate consists of fifty-five
Democrats And thirty-nine Republicans.
' A recapitulation of the Senate situation
6n latest returns shows the Democrats lost
six seats, one each In Maine, New York,
New Jersey and Maryland and two from
Indiana, and that they gained one each 1n
, Rhode Island, Delaware, and Utah.
McCOMBB BADLY BRATEN
Tl)9 biggest surprises of the senatorial
contest, were the. defeat .of Senator Llppltt
for jrefjelectlqn b.y P,eter. a. Gerry, Demo
crat, which .was' due to the fatte'r's receiv
ing Ole'-unlted support of the labor leaders,
and -Wf Senator George Sutherland, Repub
lican, In Utah, where the women voters
took the situation Into their own hands.
The election of William M, Calder, Repub
lican, in New York, served to show ills
great popularity In that State, as he led
the national and State 'tickets by thousands
of votes In snowing under William P. Mc
Combs; Wlgtrial Wilson man and former
chairman of tho Democratic National Com
mittee. ,-
Although on the face of the returns
Senator Chilton has been substantially de
feated by hid Republican opponent. Repre
sentative 'Sa'heHand. in West Virginia, the
Democrats ,wjll not concede this and are
prerMrlfiif IV tanV" tHe Contest 'into the
courts and- before the Senate .Itself.
It had' been freely 'predicted that or
ganised labor would .defeat James E. Wat-
son. Republican In Indiana, but the re
turns available Indicate- that he ran well
" up with his teammate, Harry New, and
that both Senators from the Itoosler State
are Republicans.
The defeat of Senator du Pont in Dela
ware was due to family troubles, members
of his family who are on the outs with him
over business matters having financed the
f fight, against him. The result was the elec-
tion of a 'Democrat, J. O. Wolcott, despite
the fact that Hughes carried the State,
President Wilson carried Maryland, but
he wa unable Jo carry with him David J.
Lewis, the Democratlo senatorial candidate,
who ,was defeated, his friends assert, be
cause he was an open advocate of govern-
" tnent ownership.

ANTI-B00ZE FORCES
PUN TO TAKE FIGHT
BEFORE CONGRESS
With Hnlf the Union Dry, Brittle
Will Be Opened for Nh-
tionnl Amendment,
Lender Snys
WANT STATE IN LINE
The next scene of the strugglo of the dry
forces to drive Uncle Sam out ot the liquor
business will be staged In Washington, ac
cording to a statement Issued today by the
Rev. Homer W. Tope, head of the Penn
sylvania branch of the Anti-Saloon League
of America,
Mr. Tope pointed out that the winning
of fle new states hy the drys In last Tues
day's election, making a total of twenty
four States now In tho llquorless column,
would mnko national prohibition a vital
Issue nt the next session of Congress, which
conenes In December. Pennsylvania Con
gressmen, he declared, would be confronted
with tho prohibition Issue and would huvo
no opportunity to evade the question.
"Tho Hobson national prohibition amend
ment will ho submitted nt the net session,"
he said. "Wo shall have to obtain a two
thirds majority ot tho Senate and a two
thirds majority of the Houso In order to
hao this amendment submitted to the
State for ratification. To Bweep bonzo
from the United Stntes we must have rati
fication of the amendment by thlrty-slx
States Four additional States, Mnntnna,
Nebraska, South Dakota nnd Michigan,
went dry IrbI Tuesday, nnd a tcmper.nnco
Governor nnd Legislature were elected In
I'tah, which assures us of prohibition In
that Stato when tho legislature convenes.
That gives us twenty-four dry States half
the States In tho Union. We are also lr
tualty certain that Alaska went dry, and
we have strong hopes that Florida will
shortly be swung Into the dry column, for
we understand that the Independent candi
date for Ooernor, a strong temperance
advocate, has won out In that State.
Therefore, It will bo seen that we only need
nine more States to stop tho manufacture
nnd sale of liquor In tho United States.
"Our hardest problem will be to get the
two-thirds vote. In Congress. While Isst
Tuesday's election was a tremendous ad
vance In the cause of boozeless America,
It should bo Impressed upon tho dry forces
that there Is plenty of hnrd righting yet In
front of us. Four-fifths of the liquor trnf
flc Is now cornered In a half dozen of the
great cities of the country, but the heads
of the traffic oro desperate nnd they are
now going to fight tooth and nnll to dcre.it
the will of the people. The campaign of the
Anti-Saloon League of America will swing
onward, waging a hard, practical warfare
against the last crumbling trenches of the
boozo blight.
"The splendid victory for the drys In
Tuesday's election will have Its reflex ac
tion on Pennsylvania. The people of this
State aro waking up to tho curse ot tho liq
uor business, nnd the tlmo Is not far dis
tant when Pennsylvania will fall In line
with more progressive States, Pennsylva
nia Congressmen Will no longer be able to
Ignoro the question of national prohibition.-!
"As our national superintendent, the Rev
P. A. Raker, has stated, the time has come
to Insert a plank In the platform of all
political parties favoring nation-wide
prohibition. The last President has been
elected who will enter the White House
dumb and silent upon this, the greatest and
most far-reaching question now before the
American people. Rut one thing can pre
vent It from being an acute Issue In the
next presidential campaign, and that Is for
Congress to submit the question for ratifica
tion by tho States before the next presi
dential campaign."

AMSTHRDAM. Nov. 9. Dased on the

forgotten that President Wilson questioned
their American patriotism nnd at the same
time closed both his eyes to Kngland's war
of starvation against women and children
nnd that under Wilson America became a
groat ammunition depot for our enemies.
Now they have squared accounts with him."
