JITNEY QUESTION TO BE DISCUSSED TONIGHT Ordinance Wns Tabled Hut Advocates Get Measure Sent to " Committee. All things point to a stormy session of the committee of the whole of the common council tonight. After having practically killed the consideration of the jitney bus ordinance at the last meeting, the matter will be again taken up tonight to be threshed over some more. When the committee presented a report to the council last Monday night tabling the ordinance indefinitely, it was thought that regulation of the motor busses was to be postponed to a more propitious time, but Councilman Jere T. Hagerty, supported by Councilman II. L. Lang, both strong adherents of the ordinance got by a motion referring tho matter back again to the committee. . Along with the jitney bus question the committee will have under consideration the plumbing ordinance and the building code ordinance, both bulky documents .which have been in the making and under sectional discussion for some time. Three appropriation ordinances will also be considered. The board of works is asking for $4,000 for tho streets and alleys department, and for $450 for the city cemetery, while the park commissioners aro asking for $1,665.03 to be used in paying the assessment for the Michigan st. improvements adjacent to Leepcr park.

Small Hope is Held Out For Wish London Expects City to Fall Within Fortyeight Hours. MORE TROOPS WANTED BY VON MACKENZEN Progress Made Against Servians Has Been Costly. Bulgarian Losses Are Said to be 60,000. LONDON, Nov. 2. Austro-Cermnn forces and tho Rulgarians have all but crushed Serbian resistance in the northern half of the ravaged kingdom but tho victories cost Field Marshal von Mackenzen so dearly that he is wildly calling for reinforcements. With Kragavatz in their hands the Austro-German and Bulgarian armies In northern Serbia are driving against Nish and, despite tho fortifications around the city and the British guns defending it, small hope is held out here that the Serb capital can hold out for more than 4S hours against the terrific tire. However, this pessimistic news is offset by reports to the Times from Bucharest that the Russian fleet has succeeded in effecting a landing at Varna and that Russian troops are being placed on shore there for an Invasion of Bulgaria, Conflicting dispatches relative to Balkan operations were received here. Some indicated that the German allies wero sweeping all before them and others stated that, while the Teutonic troops were winning in tho north, tho Bulgarians were hard beset in the south. ,The following dispatch from Salonika was received: "The Bulgarians were attacked north of Krivolak and were completely repulsed. (Krivolak is on the Salonika-Nlsh railway south of Vranje.) Driven to River. 'Tho PYench three times drove the Bulgarians to the right bank of the Vardar river. "The Bulgarians attacked in force for the fourth time but were again repulsed with heavy losses, suffering especially from the cross-fire of the French and Servian guns. The defenders then attacked with the bayonet and the Bulgars were driven into the riyer and many of them drowned. "Terrific lighting is In progress at Strumnitza. The Bulgarians have suffered heavily there but the French losses were slight in comparison. "Tho Bulgarians attacked the heights held by the French but failed to make an impression." The Bulgarian victories have cost them dearly. It is said that the total losses of King Ferdinand's forces are at least 60,000 men in killed, wounded and captured. Bulgaria is supposed to havo put only 130,000 men in Serbia. The political situation in the Balkans has taken another mysterious turn, according to a Central News dispatch from Salonika, This telegram asserts that the Roumanian cabinet has resigned, but it does not point out whether this is a good omen for tho grand alliance or the central empires. CETTINGE. Montenegro (via Paris), Nov. 2. The Austro-German invasion of Servia, by way of tho lrina river, has been checked and heavy looses havo been inflicted upon the invaders, according to the official statement issued by the Montenegrin war ollice today.

STATES HD

ELECTIONS Tift! Important Questions to be Decided by Voters President Casts Ballot. WASHINGTON, Nov. 2. Pres't Wilson left here at S o'clock this morning enroute for Princeton, N. J., where he will vote. He will return to Washington about o'clock tonight. WASHINGTON, Nov. 2. Questions running the whole scale of political economy from prohibition and state income tax to woman suffrage are to be settled by the voters of nine states today. The states which will settle some or all of many perplexing problems are New York, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Kentucky, New Jersey, Ohio, Mississippi, and South Carolina. In five of these states, New York, Massachusetts, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Ohio, fundamental constitutional questions are the domInan issues. The greatest test the "votes for women" issue has ever had in this .country will come up in Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and New York, where the combined population of some 20.000.000 almost doubles the population of all the states of the Union which already have given the ballot to women. Despite the overwhelming turndown given the Suffragists in New Jersey at the special election last month, the leaders have been undismayed and have pushed their cause vigorously in the states where the same question is to be settled today. In New York the suffrage issue shares public interest with the question of adopting the new constitution. The two issues will be voted on separately. The new constitution adopted by a convention over which former Sen. Root presided, gives the cities of the state a far larger degree of self government. Incidentally tbla would relieve the legislature from dealing with many strictly local matters. The new constitution also seek to expedite judicial procedure by the abolishment of much of the red tap that now contributes to the law's delay. Two separate amendments provide for a $27,000.00 bond issue for the completion of the barge canal and to allow the state assembly to change the rate of Interest on certain state debts previously incurred. The republicans, in the majority in the convention which adopted the new constitution, are not solid in their support of the measure, and the democrats likewise are divided in their stand. A constitutional amendment imposing prohibition in Ohio will be the dominating issue In that state this year, as it was last. The proposed amendment prohibts the sale or manufacture for sale of any alcoholic liquors. The "wets" have mobilized under the initiative and referendum law with petitions by which the people will vote on a measure to prevent the submission of any constitutional amendment more than twice in six VCarS. unio is me umy ij uiu on the liquor question today.

Retalitory Embargo Measures May be Passed Unless Concessions Ace Granted American Shippers. ENGLAND'S PROMISE PROVES GOLD BRICK! Many Apply For Permission to Bring Out Goods From Rotterdam But Few Get PermitsProtests Pour in. WASHINGTON. Nov. 2. Sec'y of State Bansing today cabled Ambassador Page at London to request an explanation at once of the British foreign office as to why the American steamer Hocking was seized by a prize crew from a British warship and taken to Halifax. WASHINGTON, Nov. 2. Great Britain's attitude toward American ftmde is now certain to be made one J of the big issues when congress reconIvenes next month. Senators and rep resentatives ariving here declare that unless very material concessions aro made, retaliatory" embargo constitution will bo pressed. This position is almost unanimous "with southern senators who insist that protests seemingly are useless and that the cotton interests are suffering greatly. And officials of the administration accept the seizure of the steamer Hocking, flying the American flag and enroute from New York to Norfolk, as indicating that England has no intention of yielding to the 10,000-word protest that has just been sent to London. It is expected that the United States will make its protest against the seizure of the Hocking short and sharp. Sec'y Lansing has demanded all of the facts from tho American consular representative) at Halifax and from Richard G.. Wagner, president of the American trans-Atlantic Co., which owns the steamer. As soon as they are available the protest will bo framed. The British arangement for the bringing to this country of $167,000,000 worth of goods of German and Austrian origin now in warehouses in Rotterdam expired at -midnight last night. Investigation of the available statistics Indicate that in part at least the United States has been given a "gold brick." There has been filed with tho trade advisers of the state department 1,600 applications to bring goods forward. These have accumulated since July 1. Of this number only 57 permits have been granted. Two hundred applications that had been sent to Sir Richard Crawford the British embassy's trade representative here have been returned on technicalities. Although Crawford has told the trade advisers that all applications on file eventually will be considered, tho importers see no hope for relief under existing conditions because of the extremely slow action that is being taken. J;Oss to be Ihiorniou!. The toss to the Importers will be enormous, because rJl of the goods in the Rotterdam warehouses already have been paid for. A largo part of these goods were intended for the Christmas trade and it now is too late to bring them through. Meanwhl'e protests from importers in ever: re-cMon o' tho United States continue pour into tho state department. Most of thes protests are 'nccon.PH.r,1yI bv affidavits howintr tho -losses Mi it 'i'1 bMr.g sustained. Lives in :nement Fire A About 50 persons vero asbep in th building. Six families lived there and each family had FveraJ ch'ldren nd from one to four boarders. Patrolman U Hero. Patrolman Partr-cmuller was the! hero of the blaze. Attracted by the smoke, he dashed up a fire escape, broke In the windows of the rooms on tho second Moor, plunged into the burning hall and battered at the doora with his stick, shouting a warning. While he worked fames were licking alonff the woodwork. In a few second; men and women in their night clothe?, with frightened children clinging to them, began to poke their heads out into tho halls. Parthemuller worked like mad, carrying frenzied women to the windows in his arms and putting them cn the fire escape, and running back Into the smoko-ciled rooms to rescue children. Several times he ha.d to carry women and children down the fire escapes whvn the7 refused to descend alone. When the fire apparatus arrived flames were shooting up the stairways as if in a flue, and In half an hour the fire raa drenchel out. Then the fireman besan to look for the bodies.

WE LOVE HER, SAYS MRS. M'ADOO

CHICAGO, Nov. 2. "We all love her." This was what Mrs. William G. McAdoo. who was Miss Eleonor Wilson, said about Mrs. Gait, who next month will become the wife of Pres't Wilson. "There could be no happier happening in the Wilson family." said Mrs. McAdoo. who is here with her husband on their way home from the San Francisco fair. "Mrs. Gait is so wonderfully lovable and cultured. Sho will make a most gracious mistress of the white house." Mrs. Lucy Kimble Left Home in Mishawaka Monday. Not Seen Since. Shortly after 1 o'clock Monday afternoon, Mrs. Lucy Kimble, 50 years old. a domestic nurse, left the home of her daughter, Mrs. Arthur Duggan, -716 Roddick St., Mishawaka to come to South Bend where she was to take a case on South st. Mrs. Kimble never reached her destination and has not been seen or heard from since either by any of her friends or relative?. The disappearance of the woman is exceedingly mysterious according to friends and relatives. Mrs. Kimble has lived in South Bend practically all her life and there would be little danger of her geetting lost. She appeared to be in perfect health and relatives cannot advance any motive for her disappearance. When she left the home of her daughter in Mishawaka she carried a black traveling bag, had about $2." in money in addition to her jewelry. She had intended going to the home on South ft., from where she was to accompany a woman to Niles. the woman having been ill in a local hospital. She never reached the home and word received from Niles Tuesday afternoon was to the effect that she had not arrived. All relatives to which Mrs. Kimble might have gone say that they have not seen her and her disappearance is made more mysterious by the fact that it has always been her custom to inform her daughters as to her exact whereabouts even though she was in-tendin:-? to stay away but a few hours. Mrs. Duggan with her sister, Mrs. Virginia Shontz. 413. S. Franklin ft., have notified the police department here and every effort is being made to locate their mother.
