DRINK HOT TEA
FOR A BAD COLD
Get a small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea, or as the German folks
call It, "Hamburger Brust Thee," at
any pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful
of the tea, put a cup of boiling water
upon it, pour through a sieve and
drink a teacup full at any time. It
is the most effective way to break a
cold and cure grip, as it opens the
pores, relieving congestion. Also
loosens the bowels, thus breaking a
cold at once.
It Is Inexpensive and entirely vege
table, therefore harmless.
HOT CONTESTS IN
NEARBY COUNTIES
B. K. Focht Wires That He
Was Re-elccted by 5,000
Majority
Returns reaching the Telegraph
to-day to.'d of hot contests In the
counties in this part of the State.
Interest hero was great in the battle
waged by Congressman B. K. Focht
for re-election and this afternoon a
message came from the Lewisburg
man that he had won by 5,000. There
was also great interest here in the
outcome of the contest between Sen
ator Franklin Martin and S. S. Leiby
for Senator in the Cumberland-Perry-
Juniata-Mifflin district, which was
doubtful this afternoon.
Lebanon county went Republican,
giving Congressman Kreider a fine
vote and helping elect Horace L. Hal
deman, senator in addition to re
electing Representatives Asa A.
Welmer and I. K. Urich.
Cumberland's results are summed
up as follows in a telegram from
Carlisle:
"Wilson's majority in Cumberland
county is expected to be about eight
hundred. In fifty-three districts out
of sixty the vote is Wilson 5761;
Hughes, 4785. Letby leads Martin by
about three hundred and fifty. In
thirty-five districts for Superior
Court Judge, Palmer has 1858 and
Walling 2461. Saussaman will have
between three and four hundred more
votes than Kreider. The Legislative!
fight is very close and will hinge on
doubtful precincts and the result of
the poll at the Border. In fifty-six
districts the vote is Barner, 5262;
Burtnett, 5168; Goodyear, 5054;
Brandt, 4985. The result of Com
pany G's vote was Kreider 39; Sauss
man, 23; Martin, 47; Leiby, 29;
Brandt, ,23; Goodyear, 72; Barner, 31
and Burtnett, 5. The total vote in the
county was one of the heaviest in sev
eral presidential elections."
A Lewistown dispatch gives the fol
lowing;
"With incomplete returns in Mifflin
county it seems that Wilson carried
the county, others receiving majori
ties being Walling, Knox, Kephart,
Snyder, B. K. Focht and Franklin
Martin. For Representative in Gen
eral Assembly, C. G. Corbln, Republi
can is leading over Dr. F. A. Rupp,
by 50 majority with seven districts to
hear from at noon to-day. The Re
publican majorities Ui the county 1
ran close to 200 for all offices except 1
State Legislature."

2163; Congress, Focht, 1942; Harris,
1565; Senator, Martin, 2200; Leiby,

Maurer, fhe present Socialist member i
and president of the State Federation

Republicans of City Hold
Old-Fashioned Parade
Republicans of the city and county
to the number of hundreds cheered
and sang behind a band as they tramp
ed over the streets during the wee
sma' hours of this morning in an old
fashioned celebration of another Re
publican victory.
Because information of a de
finite character was not forthcoming
until during the late hours, the as
sembling of the paraders had to be
necessarily delayed unti lafter mid
night. But that procession finally got
going, it was a mighty Imposing one.
There was plenty of redfire and sing
ing and cheering.
The band stopped and the paraders
cheered in front of the Harrisburg and
the West End Republican clubs.
And a host of late spectators missed
the last cars to watch the procession.
WILSON SLIGHTLY AHEAD
Seattle, Nov. 8. One thousand and
seventy-one precincts of 2,385 in

PHILANDER C. KNOX SENATOR E. E. BEIDLEMAN
Elected U. S. Senator From Penna. Re-elected to the Senate by Big Majority.
DEMOCRATS CLAIM
SENATE CONTROL
Party Leaders Are Anxiously
Awaiting Complete
Returns
New York, Nov. 8. —With the Presi
dency in doubt at 8 a. m. to-day the
political complexion of Congress also
was undecided and party leaders were
anxiously awaiting complete returns
before definite claims could be made
although it appeared that the Demo
crats would retain control of the Sen
ate without question by a reduced ma
jority.
I With nearly a hundred congres
sional districts still in doubt the Re
publicans had made a net gain of six,
capturing fifteen Democratic districts
while the Democrats had taken nine
from the Republicans. Without fur
ther upsets this would reduce the pres
ent Democratic House majority of 23
to 11. -Republican leaders, however,
insisted they would win the House.
They claimed a gain of several seats
in Indiana and two in Michigan.
Practically complete returns showed
that the Democrats certainly have lost
four United States Senators, one each
in Maine, New York, New Jersey and
Maryland while they gained one each
in Rhode Island, Delaware and Utah.
Indications pointed strongly to a
further Democratic loss of two Sena
tors in Indiana, one in West Virginia
and Arizona and possibly one in Ohio
and Montana. To offset this in the
possibilities the election of Republican
Senators in Wyoming and New Mex
ico had not been assured. If the Re
publicans and Democrats should lose
all these as indicated the Senate still
would remain Democratic by two.
The Democratic majority in the
present Senate is 16.
The most surprising development in
the Senatorial contest was the defeat
of Senator Henry F. Lippitt, Republi
can, of Rhode Island by Peter G.
Gerry, Democrat, as the State other

wise went Republican.
William M. 'Calder, of New York,
takes the place of Senator O'Gorman,
easily defeating William F. McCombs,
former chairman of the Democratic
national committee.
Martinc Defeated
The defeat of Senator Martlne, of
New Jersey, by Joseph S. Frelinghuy
sen had been persistently heralded Uy
Republican leaders.
Although Democratic chieftains
were hoping against hope that com
plete returns would reverse the situa
tion in Indiana the indications at this
time are that both John W. Kern, ma
jority leader of the Senate, and
Thomas Taggart must yield to Harry
S. New and James E. Watson for long
and short terms, respectively.
In Ohio, Senator Pomerene is run
ning behind his Republican opponent,
Myron T. Horrick, although the elec
toral vote of the State probably will
go to Wilson.
Another upset was the defeat of Re
publican Senator George Sutherland,
of Utah, by William H. King, Demo
crat. Late returns also indicated that
Senator DuPont, of Delaware, would
lose his seat to the Democratic nomi
nee, Josiah O. Wolcott.
Upon returns thus far received, the
Republicans have gained House seats
in New York, Kansas, Illinois, Maine,
Maryland, Wisconsin, lowa and Okla
homa, fifteen in all. These were offset
by Democratic gains In New York
also, one in the 20th district of Penn
sylvania, where A. R. Brodbeck de
feated H. H. McCall; in t North Caro
lina where J. J. Britt, the line North
Carolina Republican, lost to Zebulon
Weaver; one in Connecticut; two in
Ohio; nine in all.
Ilcrrit k Defeated
Late returns from Ohio indicating
the re-election of Senator Atlee Pom
erene, D., over Myron T. Herrlck, R.,
virtually ended the possibility of Re
publican ascendancy in the Senate.
With Democratic leaders insisting that
Hitchcock in Nebraska and Bittman
In Nevada have been re-elected, and
with Kendrlck probably elected in
Wyoming, the political status of the
new Senate would thus be: Demo
crots. 52: Republican, 42; with the re
sult in Arizona and New Mexico still
.u doubt. Should the Republicans
carry both the Democratic majority in
the Senate would be eight.
JO SEATS UAINKD
New York, Nov. B.—With 78 Congrea
sional districts to be cleared up, Repub
licans now have gained 19 seats over
their quota in the present House while
the Democrats have gained ten, a net
gain of nine for the Republicans which
reduces the present Democratic major
ity of 23 to 5.
Wilson Expresses Pleasure
With Returns; Won't Talk
Long Branch, N. J., Nov. B.—An ex
hausted but confident group of men In
cluding Secretary Tumulty waited to
day for more complete returns from
yesterday's election after having been
lip all night in the executive offices
at Asbury Park, N. J. with their hopes
slowly rising as more complete returns
from Western States came in.
President Wilson, who retired late
last night, was up shortly before 8
o'clock and was immediately notified of
the ship in his favor in returns received
during the night. He expressed plea
sure but reserved judgment.
President Wilson remained at Shadow
lawn during most of the morning re
ceiving returns and then went golfing
with Mrs. Wilson on nearby links. Al
though the outcome was still uncertain
when he left, no efforts were made to
supply him with returns while he was
playing.
Hughes Plurality in
New York State 100,000
New York, Nov. B.—New York State
gave Hughes a plurality of 100,000 or
more and re-elected Governor Whit
man by an even larger vote. All the

didate for United States senator.
Returns from all but 282 out of a
total of 5,807 election districts gave

CLOSE VOTING
IN CALIFORNIA
Wison Slightly Ahead, but
Hughes Is Gaining
Fast
Ran Francisco, Nov. 8. Returns
available early to-day Indicated that
the contest between Wilson and
Hughes in California was so close that
an official count might be necessary
to determine the result. With 2,152
precincts in various parts of the State
out of a total of 5,817 accounted for
the President was leading by about 700
votes.
Owing to the exceptional length of
the ballot few precincts have been re
ported ill either San Francisco or Los
Angeles and on the result of the count
in those two cities hinged the outcome.
In San Francisco the city registrar es
timated that Wilson would have a ma
jority of twenty thousand. Whether
this would overcome the majority cer
tain to be rollad up for Hughes in the
Southern California city was the point
with which election experts concerned
themselves.
Governor Hiram W. Johnson, Re
publican and Progressive candidate
for United States Senator, had a com
manding lead over his Democratic op
ponent, George S. Hatton, and it was
believed his majority would approxi
mate $200,000.
The two prohibition amendments
which shared interest with the presi
dential contest early to-day appeared
to have been beaten.
San Francisco, Nov. S. 3.091 pre
cincts of 5,917 in California give
Hughes, 246,182; Wilson, 237,586.
Sacramento, Cal., Nov. 8. Sacra

cincts for President give Hughes 9,097;
Wilson, 12,230.
Los Angeles, Nov. 8. Partial
count of 693 city and county precincts
give Hughes, 61,373; Wilson, 46,134.
Oakland, Cal., Nov. 8. Three hun
dred and fifteen precincts of 410 in
Alameda county give Hughes, 38,212;
Wilson, 33,193.
LOS ANGELES FOR HUGIIES
Los Angeles, Nov. 8. One hun
dred and forty complete city and coun
ty precincts gave Hughes 12,970, AVil
son 11,694.

STOCKS REGISTER
NEW ffIGH MARKS
Broad and Active Undertone
Despite Uncertainty
of Race
New York, Nov. 8. Despite tha
uncertainty of the result of the gen
eral election the stock market opened
to-day with a strong broad and active
undertone In which some new high
records were registered.
Advances ranged from 1 to 2 points
in United States Steel, Lackawanna
Steel, Pressed Steel Car. Central
Leather, American Locomotive, Inter
national Paper, Crucible Steel and
several of the leading railroads.
Steel's opening comprised a block
of twenty thousand shares at 124Va
to 124 with one small lot selling up
to 125. Later the stock reached to
122%.
The attendance on the floor was the
largest in many months while crowds
in the offices of the leading commis
sion houses bore strong evidence on
the widespread interest of speculators.
Houses with distance wire connections
reported an overnight accumulation of
buying orders chiefly from the West
and Southwest where large sums
were reported to have been wagered
on the success of the Democratic
ticket.
Buying of this character was
equalized however, by heavy offerings
of local traders who expressed some
apprehension regarding the final out
come of the contest.
Declines of 1 to 3 points followed
the strong opening, this in turn being
followed by another upward move
ment in which most losses were re
gained. Sales in the first half hour
were roughly estimated at 300,000
shares.
MR. SKITZ IMPROVING
Blood Clot oil Optic Nerve of City's
Legal Advisor Cuts Off Half
His Eyesight
Reports of the condition of City
Solicitor D. S. Seitz were decidedly
more favorable to-day although the
municipality's legal adviser is still
suffering considerable pain at his
home, 1211 North Second street.
According to Postmaster Frank C.
Sites, the solicitor's brother-in-law,
Mr. Seitz is suffering from a blood clot
at the base of his brain which is
pressing on the optic nerve. This
has served to cut off half the sight of
each eye. The slightest vibration of
sound intensities the pain.
