The telegram from Chairman Evans was a distinct surprise to all who read it. Chairman Evans did not say in his tplpcrram wVin wna rpnnnnsihlp for the alleged attempt to destroy the tickets, but it is supposed that he will take proper steps to push the prose cution of any persons guilty of such conduct LEAD Wilson carries Connecticut. Later reports put Roosevelt in the lead in Illinois. Wilson carries Alabama by 60,000. Georgia goes for Wil ay the largest majority ev er given a President. Every county goes for Wilson except about six, which will probably go for Taft. Roosevelt will not carry a single county. Wilson carries Delaware. The New York Sun says that it is likely that the Elec toral college will be: Wilson, 309; Taft 110; Roosevelt 82. Staunton, Va., Gov. Wilson's birth place, gives him 632; Taft, 289 and Roosevelt, 65. The returns as heard from up until going to press last night, were of necessity, in complete, and it is difficult even now to make any definite statement as to the final result. However, the sky looks rosy for Wilson. In all probability there will be a second race or rather the House will have to choose between Wilson and Roosevelt. Taft has not shown the strength that old line hard shell Republicans have had a knack of showing at the cru nal moment. It looks like a general De mocratic victory all around. But the Western States, ow ing to a difference in time, will not be heard from at all until to-day. REMOVAL OF HEADQUABTEBS )f State Mission Board Will Come n.r n ir.? n. Dviurt tuuteuuuu ncrc 111 nc* cember An important matter that will come jefore the Baptist State Convention, vhich meets in Abbeville December trd to 6th, will be the question of re noving the headquarters of the State Mission Board from- Greenville to Columbia. For half a century Green r'ille has been the Mecca for Baptists, lotwithstanding its geographical )lace in a corner of the State. For 3everal years there has been a grow ing desire on part of those Baptists ivho live in the lower part of the State to have the Baptist headquarters located in the Capital, which is in the geographical center of South Caro ina. At the Convention last year the matter took definite shape and a com nittee was appointed to investigate the situation and report this year. The committee consists of Rev. Howard Lee Jones, Charleston, chair man; George H. Edwards, Esq., Dar lington; H. H. Watkins, Esq., Ander son; Prof. B. E. Geer, Greenville; and the Rev. G. A. Wright, Newberry. This committee has looked carefully into the situation and will report the find ings and conclusions of its labors to the Abbeville Convention. Greenville has long been regarded as the Baptist headquarters for the State. In Greenville, the Baptists have their State college for men; one {or women; the denominational newspa per; the State Mission board* the ministerial education board and other interests. But the Baptists of Colum bia are strong in numbers and influ ence. There are seven Baptist church es in that city, and beyond the city there live great hosts of Baptists who desire to be in closer touch with "headquarters," hence the efforts at removal. The Baptist associations which are "below" Columbia, including Rich land county, with their membership, follow: Aiken, 3,022; Barnwell, 4,879; Charleston, 3,776; CheBterfleld 2,796; Colleton, 3,150; Dorchester, 539; Edge i? - ij o 1 1 n . m j : ?a _ i onn . j o neia, o.in; rjuitsiu, l.ott ; rairueia, o, 060; Florence, 2,322; Kershaw, 2,524; Lexington, 2,506; Moriah, 3,457; Or angeburg, 3,832; Pee Dee, 5,509; Ridge, 3,467; Santee, 2,726; Savannah River, 3,640; Southeast, 2,457; Waccamaw, 4,699; Welsh Neck, 3,611; total, 72, 036 members in the 21 associations. The "upper" associations, with their membership, are: Abbeville, 3,438; Beaverdam, 4,855; Broad River, 8, 145; Chester, 1,896; Greenville, 7,992; Laurens, 4,744; North Greenville, 5, 118; Pickens, 2,141; Piedmont, 3,110; Reedy River, 1,198; Saluda, 8,979; Spartanburg, 10,330; Twelve-Mile, 2, 732; Union County, 2,773; York, 1,763; total, 66,441, for 14 associations. These figures are taken from the minutes of 1911. It will be seen that, while less than half the Baptists live in the Piedmont section, the proportion is much larger than for the reBt of the State. The report of the committee will no doubt evoke considerable discus sion. MR. WRIGHT BUILDS MODERN', COMMODIOUS HOME Mr. F. W. Wright, one of Abbeville county s moat progressive rarmers, who lives near Martin's store, in the Lowndesville section, has completely renovated his residence and will erect a modern, up-to-date home, which will be a credit to the community. Mr. Wright is one of the substantial citizens of his section, and his friends are glad to note this evidence of his prosperity. FLINGS SIGNALS OVER WIDE SEA Navy's Wireless Plant tat Arlington Opened. Plans to Encircle the Globe Washington, Oct 28.?Crackling and sputtering with life the navy's new wireless station at Arlington Va.?the most powerful plant in the world?tonight flung from its lofty aerials the first message which sig nalzied the completion of an import ant step in the building of' a globe girdling wireless system which will keep every ship of the United States within instant communication with the capital. Wireless operators pro fessional and amateur, on one side of the globe probably had their in struments at their ears straining to catch the faint buzzes as tne power ful apparatus sputtered out its calls for Panama, Colon, and the Atlantic coast navy stations. Down in the sound-proof operating room, windowleBs and protected by double doors, some of the navy's most expert operators, directed by Lieut. Woolworth sent out the first flashes. N-A-X (the call for Colon 1,875 miles away) was sent hurling through the ether. At intervals the instruments sparkled off N-A-R (the call for Key West, 975 miles away. No other offi cial messages were sent but the results of the test were noted at all stations on the Atlantic coast. Covers 8,500 Miles The radius of the new plant will be about 3,500 miles. This range, probably the acme of wireless opera tion, will be attained gradually and it may be weeks before the big plant is "tuned up" to its highest efficiency. Communications with the Pacific coast ? .111 Anlv of nirrltf fnr Will UC ancuiptcu uui; at uigui, the present. Later on throughout the day, the secretary of the uavy at his desk in Washington will be within instant communication with Key West, Guantanamo, Colon the naval coaling station, the winter manvoeure grounds and all '"Atlantic stations. When the system is working perfectly and the chain of stations is complet ed Washington will be in touch with Hawaii, Samoa, Guam, the Philippines and Pearl Harbor. The completed sys tem will cost about $1,000,000. The seas will not longer be a wilderness for the navy. Ships because of weak er equipment, can not talk with pow erful plant at Arlington but they may relay messages to the various stations for transmission to Washington. Three Huge Towers Three huge towers on the brow of a hill overlooking the Potomac and dwarfing the Washington monument hold the aerials. In their construc tion some skilled iron workers who had braved death on many skyscrap ers declined to work at such dizzy heights. One tower is 600 feet above the hill, where its base rests and that is 200 feet above the river. The others measure 450 feet. At the base of the towers are the sound proof workrooms, quarters for operators and barracks for the ma rines who will -guard the towers. Within a year the towers ate ex pected to be talking with the Philip pines by relays through Guam a;ad Hawaii. Within the next few days i-' ?HI niUmnf AAmmnn{/IQ. LUC BlttLlUU Will ailCUl]/l l/UUlliiUUiva tion with the powerful station at Clif den, Ireland, the nearest working plant on the other side of the Atlantic. Officers are hopeful of the outcome. Constant communication is now be ing maintained by a connected com pany with Clifden and Cape Race, New Foundland, and other stations are being constructed for the purpose of bridging the Atlantic with aerial intelligence. A commercial company virtually has completed the erection of a powerful plant at Sayvllle, L. I., which will have as its European ter minus a station of similar design in the vicinity of Berlin. Still another near New York is projected with its sister plant in Norway. The Arlington station however marks, the most advanced step thus far taken n the establishment of reg ular and steady communuicatlon by wireless over long distances although the records of the army and navy de partment disclose many "freak" mes sages sent and received over great spaces. These, however, were ex changed under the most favorable con ditions and for the most part are re garded as accidents. PLANNED TO "GET" BURNS McNamara Not Harmless Even in Cell Strange Story on Stand Indianapolis, Ind., Oct 31.?That John J. McNamara, the dynamiter, since his imprisonment in the State penitentiary at San Quentin, Cal., has plotted to "get" William J. Burns, the detective, and also to "get" Walter Drew, who worked up evidence against him, waB the substance of tes timony at the trial of the alleged dy namite conspirators today. The story as related on the witness stand in the federal court was that Herbert S. Hockin went to San Quen tin last spring and McNamara, while in conversation with him through the oars 01 me ten t#aiu, x u u*e lu nee them get burns and Drew." Edward J. Brennan, an agent of the department of justice, testified the alleged plotting was related to him by Hockin. Brennan said that on May 22 last he was called into the federal district attorney's office at Indianap olis and there Hockin had confessed in substance as follows: Hockin had gone to San Quentin and had talked to McNamara. Mc Namara said: "I'd like to see them get Burns and Drew." Hockin then went to San Francisco and met Olaf A. Tveitmoe, a prominent labor leader. Tvietmore advised Hockin to remain in San Francisco until Anton Johan son, another labor leader, could be called from Los Angeles. Th'.3 Hock in consented to. When he was going to the station to return to Indianapolis, Tveitmoe. Johanson, Lewis and Theodore Yeill, accompanied him, Johanson saying on the way, "Mac (meaning McNa mara) is anxious for them to get aurnB.

RAH8IM FR9M 12 31 TO 121-2. < Everybody is Hoping tor a Con- ^ tinuance of High Level? Local Market Good. The most interesting news of the week has been the advance in the Cot- I ton market. Gradually the market has 1 eased up until the price is now rang ing around 12,40. The Abbeville cotton market has all through the season maintained a high er level than any market in this sec tion of the State, in some instances the price paid here being as much a? a quarter of a cent above quotations in nearby towns. Whether the market will hold the advance and increase still more is the question that everybody would like to have answered. The general opinion seems to be that while temporary breaks may be expected from time to time, in sympathy with speculation, there is little probability of a lower price level, and some even believe that cotton will go still higher. Yesterday being election day, the cotton exchanges were closed and the prices of Monday governed the local market. As high as 12 1-2 was paid by the local cotton mills yesterday. Y-PRESIMNT SHERMAN LAID TO REST IN UTICA High Officers of the Nation and State Among the Mourners utica, iv. y. wov. z.?rue nation paid Its final mark of respect today to the memory of Vice President Sherman through funeral ceremonies which were attended by President Taft and many of the country's foremost men. Prior to the main ceremonies, which took place in the First Pres byterian Church, members of v the "Sherman family and its most intimate friends knelt in prayer at the dead statesman's bier. These services were brief. A few minutes later the funeral procession was on Its solemn march from the Sherman home to the church. To Rev. L. P. Holden, D. D., pastor of the Reformed Dutch Church, was assigned the sole conduct of the cere mony at the house while the services at the church were placed under the direction of Dr. M. W. Stryker, presi dent of Hamilton College, assisted by Dr. Holden. The program for the house service contained no provision for a sermon or eulogy. Its principal features were prayers from the Dutch church liturgy and scriptural read ings. Proceedings of a more general char acter were provided for at the church, which was heavily draped in black, al though liberal prevision was made for the display of the American colors. Provision was made for only brief est service possible. It was arranged that it should be largely choral and in addition to the music, prayers and scriptural readings were provided.The program also included a brief address by Dr. Stryker. JNO. K. AULL HAS RESIGNED POSITION Greenwood Journal. Mr. John K. Aull has resigned his position as court stenographer for this, the Eighth Judicial Circuit, to take effect December 1st. At that time he will remove from Newberry, his old home, to Columbia, where he will engage in other work. Mr. Aull has not stated what position he will fill in the Capital City. Mr. Aull has been court stenogra pher in this circuit for several years and has made many friends who will regret to know that he has tendered his resignation. His successor will be appointed by Judge Frank B. Ga ry, of Abbeville. In this connection the following dispatch fr<}m Columbia which is not denied by Mr. Aull, is interesting: Columbia, Oct. 26.?It is rumored here that John K. Aull, court stenog rapher ef the Eighth judicial circuit, is to be appointed as private secre tary of the governor, to take the place made vacant by the resignation of Alex Rowland. TVILSON TO USE INSTRUMENT TOLD CLEVELAND OF VICTORY Princeton, Nov. 4.?Wilson will re ceive the returns here through the same instrument that ticked off the victory to Grover Cleveland in 1892. Commodore Benedict, Cleveland's friend, sent the historic sounder to the governor today and the nominee had it substituted immediately for the one installed. The governor said that Benedict told him he had Cleveland playing cribbage the night of the election and Cleveland complained because the instrument worried him and in terrupted the game. OLD DISPENSARY BUILDING IS SOLD FOB $125,000 Columbia, No. 4.?The old state dis pensary building in this city, famous as the home of the G. M. I., was sold at auction today to Christopher At kinson, of this city, for $125,500. There were several bidders. The legislature in 1911, passed a resolution not allowing the building to be sold for less than $100,000.

Wn..s CONSTANTINOPLE IS AFRAID OF MOSLEMS Jause Great Fear in Ancient Clty CIVIL WAR ANOTHER DARfiER. Che "Young Turks'' May En deavor to Overthrow Govern ment?Expect News of Decisive Battle. Constantinople, Nov. 4.?(Uncensor id.)-^-Constantinople is in a fever if excitement over the alarming re ports from the field of battle. Foi ligners and natives alike are suffer ng from the tension caused by the eries of wild, disasters and although he city is in a state of seige, -crime ? n some quarters is unchecked. Many amilies are leaving the city. The people fear, first, an outbie&ie if Moslem fanaticism by the turbu ent elements, the lower classes and econd, a rising of hordes of madrten d soldiers, who are being drvcn by he Bulgarians to make their last tand a few miles outside of Consian inople and then, perhaps to fall back in the capital. The battle still continues on the ilains of Thrace and if the Turkish oldiers fall back within the gates of ' he city, it is feared they may turn heir guns and bayonets on those who .re awaiting here in trembling tne mtcome of the conflict There is a large and unruly ele nent of the population which would ie glad of any pretext for massacre ,nd pillage. The presence of more han 10,000 refugees from the war one, who have lost all their posses- - ons, adds to the danger of the sit lation. Rumors are current that the Young 'urks committee may start rioting , irith the object of overthrowing the ;overnment, but there have been no angible proofs of such a plan. It is . loubtful whether a rising would be rected against foreigners, as much .8 native Christians, but the danger o foreigners is very real. If the . .'urkish army sustains complete de eat, the lives and property of thou ands of foreigners as well as native Jhristians will ibe in eminent, peril. .,he presence 'of - warships is of he greatest importance and would be he surest guarantee of the_ security" f foreign interests and puouc oraer ;enerally. A brigade of infantry has been dia latched in Tchatalaja with orders to irevent all fugitives, particularly sol- ? / Hers, from proceeding to Constanti lople but it is questionable whether he brigade under conditions could airy out such an order. On Tuesday diplomatic repre entatives of all the nations held a onference. Just what measures \rere decided upon is not known, but he Austrian ambassador visited the oreign minister and called attention 0 the disquietude on the part of the oreign residents, respecting their afety. Expect News of Battle Definite news of the great battle is xpected hourly. According to a gov rnment official, Nazim Pasha's plan 1 to surround the Bulgarians, while lahmOud Mukhtar Pasha is working o the northwest of Visa. A column f 30,000 will then be ordered to make sortie from Adrianople to join ands with him and baik a Bulgarian, etreat to the north. The Turkish f rmy at Dedeaghatch is to hem in be western flank of the Bulgarians, fhile the main Turkish forces, occu ying the line between Tchorlu and lerai is expected to deliver the de isive blow against the enemy. The defenses at Tchatalja have been epaired and strengthened and dur- / ag the past, few days many guns ave been mounted there. But if the 'urks are beaten at Tchorlu and 'cherkesskeui, an effective resist nce along the last line of forts is n probable. 'WVITEY COMPANY MOTES "~INTO NEW MODERN BUILDINtt The G. E.

The Conkey Company's growth has een little short of marvelous as they ave had to double their manufactur lg quarters twice within the past tvo years. This is due of course to the splen id quality of their goods and to the act that everything they make is old on the distinct understanding aat it must give satisfaction or the urchase price will be cheerfully re unded.
