PRIMARIES SHOW TREND TO G. O. P. IN MANY STATES INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Oct. 11. L. W. Henley secretary of the Republican state committee, who is one of the busiest individuals about the state headquarters, has Just completed an investigation of the results of the primaries held this year in the various states snd of the result of the Maine election, and he has just' made public the Interesting figures that he obtained through this research. He had the idea that the figures would show that the Republicans had the advantage in each primary, just as they had the advantage in the Maine election, and the result c." his investigation proves this to be the case, - Henley telegraphed the authorities of the different states and asked for correct figures on the vote at the primaries, and in this manner he obtained official information that cannot be questioned. The statement that he has just issued as a result of this work reads as follows: Results of Primaries. "Results of recent state wide primaries and the Maine election tell their own story. These official figures show which way the political wind is blowing. Note the fact that in ever; state the Republican vote is far in excess of the Democratic vote revealing the fact that the drift is unmistakably towards Republicanism. When a political tide once sets in there is no more chance of stemming it until it runs its course than there is of stemming the tide of the sea. That the tide has set in toward the Republican party is shown by the following figures: Indiana Primary. Total Republican vote 210,800 Total Democratic vote 100,423 Illinois Primary. Republican vote 338,104 Democratic vote 208,472 New Jersey Primary. Republican vote 154,000 Democratic vote 68,000 Idaho Primary. Republican vote 24,463 Democratic vote 14,000 Massachusetts Primary. Republican vote 104,662 Democratic vote 81,186 Wisconsin Primary. Republican vote 175,557 Democratic vote 39,691 California Primary. Republican vote 302,742 Democratic vote 68,871 Ohio Primary. Republican vote 262,478 Democratic vote 188,133 Main Election. Republican vote 80,902 Democratic vote -. 67,097 There will be a conference at the Republican state headquarters Thursday forenoon, attended by all of the Republican county chairman, district chairmen and members of the state campaign committee. At this conference there will be a discussion of the plans for the remainder of the campaign, and there will also be a general going over of the returns from the reKistration of voters. ReDorts from all over the state show conclusively that the Republicans got the best of it at the registration. In every place from which reports have come in the uepuDiican reRisirauun was far and away ahead of the Democratic registration. In one precinct in Hendricks county, for Instance, there were forty Republicans and nineteen Democrats to be registered. Every Republican - showed up - and registered. The Democratic organization was unable to get them to turn out. GUARDSMAN 18 KILLED INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.; Oct. 11.

WAR REVIEW FOR THE DAY German armies in France have undertaken a counter offensive against the French but all attacks have been repulsed. Attacks were delivered against the French positions in Champagne in the Verdun sector and in the Vosges Mountains, but no ground was gained at any point- Only in one instance were the Germans able to score anything like a success. That was in the Vosges where they were able to reach the trenches of the French near Schoenholz before they were dispersed. Heavy losses were Inflicted by the French. On the Somme front the French have consolidated their new positions south of the river and local attacks with grenades gained for them more ground in that district. Although the Roumanian troops in the Transylvania theatre of war are hard pressed by the Teuton armies, the success of the Germans in that region is more than overshadowed by the steady advance of the allies in Greek Macedonia. On the Struma river front in Greece the British are now only two miles from the important city of Sieres according to an official dispatch by the British war office from Saloniki. Bulgarian cavalry operating south of Sieres were dispersed by the British. HOLD PREVENTION DAY INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Oct. 11.

HUGHES GIVEN WARM GREETING THROUGH SOUTH CLARKSBURG, W. Va., -Oct. 11. Charles E. Hughes invaded West Virginia today, flushed with the big ovations he received at Philadelphia and Baltimore at the outset of , his third western trip. He was scheduled to make speeches here and at Parkersburg, and at Huntington and Charleston. The reception his remarks received at Baltimore last night on the maintenance of Americans abroad encouraged him to continue in that vein today.

DETECTIVES RAID OFFICES OF MAYOR CHICAGO, Oct. 1L The offices of Mayor Thompson, Chief of Police Healey, and M. L. C. Funkhouser, deputy superintendent of police, were raided late yesterday by detectives from State's . Attorney Hoyne's office and files of correspondence were seized to determine whether vice and gambling have existed here with the knowledge and consent . of the . city officials. Chief Healey objected to the seizure of his private papers until subpenas authorizing search and seizure had been examined by the corporation counsel, after which they were released. Funkhouser, who formerly was in charge of all vice raids, surrendered his files without objection, and Mayor Thompson agreed at once to let the raiders have what they desired. The raid was the climax of the war between the city hall officials and the stale's attorney in which Hoyne has charged that open gambling flourished, saloons were permitted to violate the Sunday closing ordinance and that vicious resorts were gaining headway with the connivance of some local politicians. His raid a week ago on the Sportsmen's Club of America, resulting in charges that Chief Healey had permitted the operation . of slot machines, was a former development of the war. Mr. Hoyne has announced that he will seek the indictment of the chief of police. BRETHERN CHURCH HOLDS CONVENTION HAGERSTOWN, Ind, Oct. 11.

Paper in the place of cotton has proved of extraordinary value in splving one of Austria-Hungary's greatest economic problems, according to Arthur Kuffler, president of the War Association of Cotton Spinners, the government organization controlling cotton con sumption. Herr Kuffler explained to the correspondent of the Associated Press how Austria-Hungary has met the situation caused by the cutting off of American cotton through the British blockade. "The central powers could use more than 1,000,000 bales of cotton right now," he said, "but we are able to get along without it if we must We are : getting 5,000 to 16,000 bales a month from Turkey. Before the outbreak of the war this amount was much greater, but it has shown a decrease recently, owing to the deportation of Armenians, who are the principal cotton planters in Asia Minor."

TO SOFTEN ANIMOSITY BERLIN (via London), October 11. A Cologne dispatch says that the pope has addressed a letter to the German bishops through Cardinal von, Hartmann, declaring that though "his efforts for peace are at present unsuccessful, he is endeavoring to soften the violent animosity between the belligerent peoples. "Our bitter grief." writes the pontiff, "over the frightful bloodshed Is increased by the fact that our repeated efforts for peace encounter, on the part of some, contemptible attempts to ca6t suspicion on our motives, and from others open rejection. We wish, however, while steadfastly awaiting peace, to lighten to 6ome little extent at least, by all the means in our power, the heavy burden which the war entails.
