rhe noils generally were quiet, partlcu
t.rlv In the "Woody Fifth" and the Right
..nth where trouble had been looked for.
The leaders of both parties expressed
confidence In the result at noon.
The voting during the morning hours
mews a sweep for the Republican ticket,"
Mid Senator Vnre.
'There Is not much opposition anywhere,
and In West Philadelphia things look much
tetter than we expected. The same Is true
of the northeast, where there will undoubt
edly be a walkover for the Republican can
didates. In the Fortreth Ward It looks
as If the ticket will have at least a ma
jority of 1500."
'The heavy voting In tho residential and
Independent wards will elect the Town
Meeting ticket," was the word from the
Town Meeting party headquarters.
In order to explain to voters In today's
ilectlon their right to vote the straight
Town Meeting ticket and. at tlffe same time,
vote for candidates on other tickets for
offices for which that party has made no
nomination, the following statement was
Issued this morning from the Town Meet
ing party headquarters: ,,.,...
The Supreme Court has decided that
where one party ticket on a ballot does not
contain the name of any candidate for a
particular office, a otcr may make a cross
In the party square and also In the squares
opposite the names of as many candidates
for that office on any other ticket as are
to be elected, If a voter marks more can
didates than ho Is entitled to vote for any
office or If for any reason It Is Impossible
to determine his choice, his ballot shall not
be counted for such office, but shall be
counted for all other offices for which the
names of candidates have been properly
marked."
STRICT WATCH ON" COUNT
It was stated at the headquarters of.
' the Town Meeting party that a strict watch
would be kept to see that no ballots for
the Town Meeting ticket of that Dart.
wklch also contained crosses opposite tne
' names of the candidates for District Attor
ney or other offices for which the Town
Meeting party made no nominations are

would nrf deprive the voter the right
to vote the strolght Town Meeting ticket
and at the same time vote for his choice
on other tickets of the offices so omitted
Throughout the city tho police apparently
are not taking much part In the election.
They are at the polling PlceB-,but,ev,d,T"d
do not want to have compla nts lodged
against them for a repetition of the primary
election police thuggery.
The Vares early made a tour of Soutn
Philadelphia to see that their followers were
voting for the Organization ticket.
' Harry A. Mackey. Vare leader of the
Forty-sixth Ward, predicted iou) -ould
go for the Organization by 1G00. , It
Is the largest ward In West Philadelphia
and one of the largest In the city.
John F. Sloan, executive secretarj or
the Town Meeting party, said that tho ward
would go for the new party by about .SOU.
"Mackey Is a bad guesser and always
was," he remarked. Magistrate Carson
said the majority In the ward In favor
of the Town Meeting party would be 3800.
There are 11,280 registered voters In the
ward. . ,.
Indications In the Mayor's own ward, the
Twenty-eighth, point to a majority for the
Town Meeting party. The Twenty-eighth
Ward la very close, and It Is impossible to
tell yet how the wind will veer. The
Fortv-seventh Ward Is Republican without
any doubt, the large negro vote supporting
that ticket.
HOT FIGHTS IN SOMK WARDS
The Fourteenth Ward s considered to be
assured to the Vnres. John R. K. Scott
Is the leader here, and ho claims the wara
by 2300 for the "fifty-fifty." This Is known
as a police ward, as It Is composed of most
of the so-called Tenderloin. Police arc more
than usually actlc In this wara iocia.
The Thirteenth Ward, however, adjacent
to It. Is the scene of a hot fight and may
go to the Town Meeting party.
The Republican City Committee had been
assured until n couple of days ago that
John F Flaherty, committeeman from this
ward, would turn In for the Organization.
Word, however, passed nround today that
Flaherty would throw his strength to the
McNIchol forces.
The Tenth Ward will also be tho scene
of a keen struggle. Organization men al
ways hae been In doubt whether Thomas
A. Cunningham, chief clerk of Common
Pleas Court and city committeeman from
this ward, would turn In for the McNIchol
forces or the Organlzatolon.
Word has been received that Cunnlnghnm
is turning In for the Town Meeting party
and that his men have been working to
that end for several days, r.ven Vare con
ceded this ward to the Town Meeting party,
party.
The Fifteenth Ward Is going to t.ie Town
Meeting party. Harry J. Kceley. are
leader in the ward and protege of W. Free
land Kendrlck. Receiver of Taxes, gained
his position on the city committee through
a spilt In the McN'lcho forces
Magistrate Collins and Judge Brown sep
arated at the time of the last election, hut
Indications are that their aiferences have
been made up, and, w'th the nddltlon of
the Democrats, they will be arrayed solidly
against the Organization.
KGNDRICIC "ROUNDS UP'
VOTE
The lengths to which the Organization
leaders are going to bring out every vote
they can swing for the "fifty-fifty" ticket
were shown bv W. Freland Kendrlck. Or
ganization candidate for Receiver of Taxes.
After having sent word last night to the
Beore of Inmates of the JIasonio iiome.
Broad and Ontario streets, not to vote until
8 o'clock this morning.' Kendrlck, accom
panied by Dr. James Scott, a brother of
Congressman John R. IC Scott, went to the
iiomu at 9 o'clock and "rounded up" the vot
ea. Kendrlck openly demanded that the aged
Masons In the homo go to the polls with
h m and vote' the straight Republican ticket.
He and Doctor ScoH loaded them Into four
sptomoblles and then took them to the
Polling place, where several of them re
ceived assistance In marking their ballots.
Almost the entire I'enrose-Mc.S'lchol jup
Port Is being thrown to the Town Meeting
ticket The only exceptions, apparently,
are the Seventh, Sixteenth and Twenty
fth, Wards, but In these -wards the. ma
jority, If there la any, will be absurdly

William Ii Flnley, executive director of
the -Republican city committee, today de
clared that the soldiers are entitled to vote
only for the county offices, the Magistrates
and the Judges. They cannot vote for
Councllmen, he said. They do not have to
be registered,
He estimated that between 15,000 and
11,000 soldier votea will be polled In the
Philadelphia election. In the event of a
close contest they would bo tho balance of
power.
Most of tho Philadelphia Soldiers who are
voting today are at the National Army

SCARE IN FOURTH WARD
Tho gunman scaro In tho Fourth Ward

stamping ground of State Senator "Sam"
Salus, leader of the Vare-Smlth Organiza
tion In that ward. A report that men with
pistols were In the polling place, nt 625
South Twelfth street, caused the police to
make a search. According to William F.
Wooderd, a negro Town Meeting watcher,

was taken from a strange negro. No pistol
was found, according to Peter Ewell, an
other negro Town Meeting watcher. On

and Swnnson streets, in the river district
According to Dowbenko, who lives at 605
South Front street, he was about to put his
ballot In the box when Casey yelled:
"Don't let the Swede put It In!"
This, Dowbenko told Judge Brown, was
the signal for a concerted nttack on him,
led by Christian As soon as he was put
out of the place he asked for the warrant,
which was granted. Dowbenko said tho only
grievance, against him was that he was a
watcher for the Independents.
Later warrants were sworn out for the
arrest of the entire election board of the
flrBt division of the Fourth Wnrd on charges
of conspiracy and Interfering with a qual
ified voter. The complainant was Dow

VOTING AT MEADE
AGAINST THE GANG
Town Meeting Candidates
Lead in Ballots Being
Cast by Philadelphians
COUNT TO BE DELAYED
fly n ataff Corretpondcnt
CAMP MEADE, Admiral, Md Nov. 6.
Good government Is having Its Innings to
day nt Little Penn, for hundreds of boys In
olive drnb are registering their protest
against gang rule In Philadelphia.
It Is Impossible to give nny estimate con
cerning the size of the soldier vote nt this
camp, but at It o'clock It was apparent
that n hexvy vote would bo cast.
More than 300,0, or nbout one-third of
the Philadelphians, had voted nt that hour
and long lines of men wero waiting In each
barracks for n chance to deposit their
ballots.
"It Is certain," said James Franklin,
chairman of the camp election commission
ers, "that nearly all of tho men nre going
to vote. The size, of the vote will delay
the count, and It Is not likely that a tabu
lation can bo made until a late hour to
night" The solc!rs who nro operating the elec
tion machinery nre Imposing a strict Inter
pretation upon election laws. Politicians
am barred from the barracks during tho
balloting and a strict watch Is being kept
upo ntho lines of votes to prevent the cus
tomary buttonholing nt tho booths. There
Is little excitement nround the barrncks
and no betting. That the Town Mcelng
candidates are leading Is apparent from
tho attitude of tho soldiers. Men who have
voted the Town Meeting ticket are making
no secret of their action, nnd they nre In
tho majority Vnro followers aro not boast
ing any, and, In fact, making no claims.
Nearly 2500 negroes, Including 1200 from
Philadelphia, nre voting In their own bar
racks. Early this morning tho soldiers were
up nnd nt tho work of casting their ballots.
In the 315th Infantry, which is made up
of Philadelphians, the men In ench barracks
elected three election Judges nnd two In
spectors to handle the ballots and then pro
ceeded to register their protest against
gang rule.
