Jennings County Cases. Appealed cases from Jennings county and a number of other appeals in which the appellants are seeking re-examlna-tlons on physical grounds were taken up by the board this afternoon. The men were examined by Dr. Forest Layman, of Terre Haute. In a room adjoining the board’s headquarters. The board sustained Its former decisions in the cases of Andrew F. Woernef, 1*23 Union street, and Homer Jessup, of Carmel, who had petitioned tie hoard to reopen their cases. The board granted an extension of ninety days to Emil M. Zurschmelde, of New Albany, who Is engaged with his father In rebuilding some of the homes that were devastated by the tornado March 23. Zurschmelde showed In his affidavit that his father is ill and not able to care for the business. , Three Cases Held.

However, ran strong in Brooklyn and he also

carried C/ueens and Richmond.

The closeness of the vote was a surprise to politician* of all parties, in view of the fact that the Republicans leaders in all five boroughs had indorseed Mitchei. He was supported by Charles E. Hughes. United States Senator W’illiam M. Calder and Governor Whitman. Bennett, a lawyer and a former state senator, ran with virtually unorganised support.

WASHINGTON, September 10,-The war dopm tlnent received a cablegram today from General Pershing announcing the death of Lteutanant Myron Hertman of the 1st United state# engineer*, attached to the expeditionary foro* in France.

^8l>erial to The Indianapolis N#w#] MUNCIE, Ind., September 20—The Republican city committee In a statement signed by the chairman. Harry Long, and secretary. J. Monroe Fitch, today declares that the Democratic city committee, aided by the Democratic city council Is endeavoring to dls- | franchise more than half of the voter# j In yie coming city election#, by failure j to establish new precincts snd new voting place# M had been agreed on earlier.

Preclncta Too Large.

iAccordlng to the signed statement, th* two committees had agreed that the precincts wsre too large even without women’s voting and that In some precincts there are as many a# 900 men voters, whereas If all should vote at the rate of one a minute continuously throughout the day only 720 co*ld cast fipelr ballot#. In these precincts, should women be permitted to vote, more than half of all the voter# would necessarily be deprived of the right, of franf chi#e. T j The Republican statement sets out that after a conference of party leader# the city was divided into twenty-three precincts instead of twelve, a# now’, and that the county commissioner# authorised this arrangement, and John McPhee. City attorney, agreed to bring the matter before the city council In order that an ordinance along these lines might be enacted, but that no such ordinance has ever been brought before the council. The statement say# the public is entitled to know these facta and that if #om«hlng be not done to relieve the situation, appeal will be taken to the court# for redress

Aimed at the Women. Republican leaders assert that the failure to redlatrlct the city is a plan on tha part of the Democrats to prevent women voting; that the Democratic party leaders fear that owing to the moral issues Injected Into the campaign, the women oppose the candidacy of Mayor RoHIn H. Bunch, who is up for re-election, and the administration hopes bv this means to frighten women awav from the polls and to prevent most of them front voting.
