QUAY'S UNSFKN HAND
MoCormick Makes \nother-Bad Break
In a Speech ot Williams Grove
There was a lot of quiet amusement
in political circles to-day over another
break by the Democratic candidate fori
Governor, whose knowledge of history,
political and otherwise, seems sadly
defl-Ment He declared at the Grangers'
Picnic vesterdav that
In 1902 Quay selected Mr Pennv
packer and In 1906 Quay and Pen
rose selected Mr. Stuart, as honest
men to strengthen the Republican
ticket by running for Governor
Of course, the unimportant fact that
Senator Quay di°d in 1904 and Gov
ernor Stuart was nominated three
years later tin 1907> makes no differ- j
enee to a reckless seeker after an office j
and power.

the German steamer Bleucher, at an
chor In the harbor of Peraambuco,
Brazil, in which three of the Bluecher's
crew and fifty of her 800 steerage pas

were thrown overboard, according to
the Sao Paulo's passengers.
Nine German ships were tied up at
P,ernambuco when the Sao Paulo
sailed.

Bull Moosers Are
Opposed to Fusion
But Can't Help It!
Two of the prominent men of the!
Washington party in this State have
declared opposition to fusion, but say
It is coming to pass. In New York
yesterday Alexander P. Moore, the
Pittsburgh editor, who was one of the
most ardent advocates of fusion n
short time ago, is quoted as saving
that he was against fusion, but that it
looked very much as though It was
going to be effected.
State Treasurer R. K. Young said
to-day that while he was opposed to
fusion, he thought It would be effected
because It has gotten down to the
roots of the Washington party and
its rank and file want it.
In the city Bull Moosers say that
fusion is a Vnistake. The Washington
party is being shoved along by the
money power of the "reorganized"
Democracy toward the jumping off
'place, the advice of some of Its chief
j tains being disregarded.
While in New York Moore predicted
that Roosevelt would be the Repub
lican candidate for President in 1916.

Rome, Sept. 3, 8.30 A. M., by way of Paris, Sept.
3, 1.45 P. M.—A telegram from Nish, says that in a
battle at Jadar between 200,000 Austrians and 180,-
000 Servians, the latter put 140.000 Austrians "hors
de combat."
London, Sept. 3, 2.55 P. Mj.—A dispatch from
Amiens, France, to the Daily Mail dated Tuesday,
September 1, declared that the Germans have taken
possession of Amiens after three days' fighting.

Rome, Sept. 3, 8.40 A. M., by way of Paris, 2.45
P. M.—The Russian embassy has been notified that
the Austrians were overwhelmingly defeated near
Lemberg, losing more than 100,000 men and 57 can
non. The occupation of the city of Lemberg was said
to be imminent.
The absence of official announcements from the capitals of the
belligerents to-day is the surest indication that the fighting in the
east and west continues without decisive results.
Such news dispatches as escaped the censors tend to confirm
earlier official claims and admissions. The Germans are pushing
their right wing nearer Paris while their center and left appear to
be held by the French.* Russia is pressing forward in the Austrian
province of Galicia after having taken the strongly fortified capital,
Lemberg. The Germans are admittedly victorious in East Prussia.
The Japanese are said to have occupied seven islands near
Kiao Chow and to have landed additional troops within marching
distance of that German stronghold in the face of protests by China.

Repeat Itself
By Associated Press
London, Sept. 3, 1.10 A. M.—The
battle to.decide whether history will
repeat itself in a second siege of Paris
Is still in progress, according to the
latest official announcement here.
Future military historians will write
volumes about the details of this bat
tle, but all the British public knows
officially concerning the titanic strug
gle—the most momentous British sol
diers have fought since. Waterloo—is
contained in one sentence of an offi
cial report issued laSt night by the
press bureau —"Continuous fighting
has been In progress along almost the
whole line of battle."
To this generally the French official
communication adds the fact that the
allied forces have fallen back toward
the southwest to avoid an action which
might have b»cn engaged under un
favorable conditions. How far and
to what line the allies have gone is
unknown.
There can be no revelation of mili

TO INSURE VOTE IT
NOVEMBER ELECTION
Only Two More Dates on Which
Registrars Will Sit For
Enrollment
REGISTER TO-PAY
Hours: 2 to 0, 7 to 10
To-day Is the first of the fall regis
tration days and judging from reports
obtained from the various registration
places by the Telegraph this afternoon
the registration was about the average
for the first autumn day. In one or
two districts of the city It was lighter
than it was on the first registration of
the presidential campaign and one of
the registrars humorously explained It
by saying that he guessed the war ex
citement was greater than that over
politics.
Every man who wants to vote In
Nove:nber in this city must be regis
tered. If he does not register to-day
he will have a chance on September 15
or October 3. If he fails he will be
unable to register unless he makes an
affidavit that he was sick or out of the
city on a registration day.
The usual tangles occurred at some
of the registration places and it ap
peared that some of the new registrars
were not fully Informed as to the re
quirements. Voters who appeared
without tax receipts were aflowed to
go away without being told that thev
could file affidavits that they had paid
taxes within two years.
There Is no personal resrlstratlon In
districts outside of cities. The as
sessors have charge of the llstine and
