WILL FIGHT ON, DR. SHAW SAYS

Suffrage Leader Considers the Large Number of Votes a Victory— Antis Jubilant at Results. New York, Nov. 2.—At the headquarters of the National American Woman Suffrage association, where Dr. Anna Howard Shaw and her lieutenants received the returns, optimism ebbed as the heavy vote against suffrage grew with late returns. “If, when the final count comes,” said Dr. Shaw, “we should not have won the state, we at least have won the greatest victory in the history of our movement. We have won the largest number of votes that have ever been cast for us in any state. “As to Massachusetts, I am not at all surprised at the way the vote went. Massachusetts is an exceedingly conservative state. I did not expect suffrage to carry in Massachusetts. “I head that Philadelphia has beaten suffrage by 50,000. I am not surprised. I lived in Philadelphia and know th 6 city. “Whatever the result in New York, Massachusetts and Pennsylvania do not let anybody think that we will Stop even for a moment. This is only one battle and we are in a war. We intend to keep on fighting until we win.” The anti-suffrage leaders were jubilant at the outcome in New York.
