In tbo morning 'before going to the polls, sfttirnied to the voting places,
and in ninny precincts tho rush was too heavy for the election oMclulx
to handle.
In Newark and Qundw, when'" 1

Is hearler than anywhero elso In tho

Up to noon about 8,000 votes had
teen cast In Jersey City, whero thero
did not appear to bo n great deal of
Interest In the balloting on votes for
women. Ordinarily between 30,000
and 35,000 votes are cast cm election

estimated that not more than fiO per
cent, of the voters would take tho
trouble to vote on tho suffrage ques

Tunnel Entrance Gang
Makes Escape Good.
Klght bandits held up two freights
and a fast express-car train loaded
with valuables late last night at tho
south end of the long tunKcl between
Congers and Havorstraw on tho West
Shore road nnd mado their escape In
nn nutomoblle, Tho gang seemed to
be familiar with the running of trains
and the operation of tho signal ap
paratUH In the tunnel..
Police mid rnllrond detectives aro
watching all the ferries and search
ing all the country for ono hundred
miles west nnd north of New York.
It Is thought that tho robbers may
have a hiding place In tho hills. They
got little, If anything, from thn express-car
train, owing to tho quick
wit of ICnglneor Kd. Nolan, who
slipped nboard ond started It off be
fore they had searched very far.
Tho robbers apparently hid their
motor car In the woods near the south
end of the tunnel a llttlo beforo It
o'clock. They cut tho wlro of tho
electric signal apparatus, nnd this net
a rcil danger light. A fast frolght,
due nt llaverstraw at 10.57 and known
nn It. F. No. 1, was stopped at tho
end of tho tunnel. Ttvo lialnnieU
with lanterns went In to see whero
the break win.
Three robbers covered the engineer
with revolvers nnd ordered him down.
The conductor ran up, and he was
covered too, while the robbers b'roke
open two lumber cars and a ear of
Hiigar. They cursed nnd sent tho train
200 ynrds Into tbo tunnel.
In a few minutes a freight called
W. F. No. J was lingered, Rnglneer
Tyler and the fireman were token
down by masked men with guns. Five
or six men from tho bushes begnn
to break open nnd search tho cars.
Conductor Heath came forward from
the calmose. He opened tiro on tbo
gang, but six shots emptied his pis
tol, nnd ho ran toward Congers.
The robbers broke opon seven ears
In W. Nn. 5, .found nothing valu
able, rnvlled thn members of the
crew nnd ordered thorn to tnko thn
train Into thn tunnel. Somo of thn
gang went along with them. Then
enmn th" fast express In charge of
Knglneer IMwnrd Nolan, who saw
a lot of boxes scattered beside the
track, thought there hail been a
wreck and stopped to help, Iln nnd
Conductor Now kirk wero held up with
pistols.
Tim leuiler of the gang blew live
blasts on a shrill whistle, and the
men who hail gono with the two
freight trains Into the tunnel let them
go nnd camo back to him. Tho gang
then began to break open the
N'iMnn'il K-Tr'""" or" eivnp"lng the
train.
Nolan, (villi the revolver no longer
confronting him, derided on prompt
action. Ho nudged Newklrk and his
llremnn. The Uneu JuiTfpcil aboarl
the engine, Nolan pulled tho throttle,
and away shot the train with thn
robbers still busy. They fr.mMcilly
plunged through door. and dived out
