Nagel, with the aid of a patrolman,
then deprived Thornton of his star and
a revolver and took both him and Mul
vin to the Cottage Grove Avenue sta?
tion. All were released later on writs
of habeas corpus.
The first stop of one slugging crew
was at the 20th Precinct, in the 4th
Ward -which includes a large part of
the Stockyards district. A little after
9 o'clock three automobiles, all loaded
down with gunmen, stopped before the
polling place at 3308 Lowe Avenue,
where Robert Ashley, a precinct cap?
tain of the Brundagee-Dencen organi?
zation, was on duty. A dosen men
tumbled out of tho three machines,
s7urrourded Ashley and forced him to
let into the leading automobile. A
moment later the three machines were
speeding away.
The automobile carrying Ashley sped
on, while the other two swooped down
on the Eleventh Precinct polling place,
at Thirty-first Street and Emerald Ave?
nue. HeiV they ran into William
Jaeger, known as a fighter of some
ability. When they started to drag him
into the machine Jaeger swung a hard
right to the jaw of the leader of the
raiders. In a moment guns and black?
jacks were out, and the ward lea;l?r
went down before the combined nssnult
of the wrecking crew, which was com?
posed of nine or ten men. He v/r.?
dragged unconscious into one of the
machines.
Poltcemen Connive at Attacks
In both cases policemen watched the
attacks nn?J kidnaping without protest.
John Smolka, a political worker in
the 29th Ward, was kidnaped by five
armed men, who, after robbing him of
jewelry and more than $100 and severe?
ly beating him, threw him out of their
automobile with a warning not to re?
turn to his precinct. Two other poli?
ticians who "were kidnaped have not
been found.

the Former Judge Leads

"The record-breaking vote in the
Republican primary yesterday showed
that the G. O. P. in this state is as
virile as Maine's, The election of
Judge Nathan L. Miller as Governor
and the reelection of United States
Senator Wadsworth and their running
mates November 2 are as certain as that
of Senator Harding and Governoi
Coolidge. New York will roll up
splendid pluralities for all the Re?
publican nominees."
This was the answer of Representa?
tive Bertrand H. Snell, chairman o?
the executive committee of the Rebub
lican State Committee, when asked t<
comment on Tuesday's primaries.
Commenting on the vot? cast foi
Senator George F. Thompson,*of Niag
ara, who opposed Judge ?Miller, Repre
sentative Snell said:
"The large vote given Senato
Thompson is attributable to the activ
campaign he made throughout th'
state and to the fact that he was sup
ported largely by the drys, who an
swered the call of William H. Ander
son. Now that Senator Thompson ha
been defeated, I assume that he, like
good Republican, will support and wor
for the party's candidates."
Thompson May Lead Drys
Senator Thompson also was a cand:
date?unopposed?for the nominatio
for Governor in the Prohibition part;
and, according to his friends here,
is probable that he will remain at th
head of the dry ticket.
Judge Miller carried fifty-five of tu
sixty-two counties in the state. Tt
counties carried by Thompson wei
Niagara, Chemung, Orleans, Vates, Su
folk, Queens and kings.
?N'o comment was made by local Demi
cratic leaders on the result of the vi
tory of Lieutenant Governor Harry '
Walker, of Binghamton, over May?
George R. Lunn of Schenectady f<
the nomination for United States Sei
ator. Lunn carried only five counties
Ulster, Yates. Schenectady, Cattara
bus and Schoharie.
This was the only state-wide conte
in the Democratic primary, as Go
ernor Smith and the other designes
of the Saratoga convention were uno
posed. Walker, the organization choic
like Judge Miller and his runnh
mates on the designated ticket, in tl
rival primary, made practically no cat
paign.
United States Senator Wadswoi
beat his nearest rival, Mrs. Ella
Boole, by overwhelming majorities
every county in the state, except thr
?Chemung, Franklin and Tompkir
George Henry Payne,.of the Bror
who also ran, did not carry a sing
county. In Brooklyn, which Thomps
carried against Miller, Wadsworth ov?
whelmed Mrs. Boole bv a ratio of net

Wadsworth defeated Mrs. Boole
about 3tt to 1.

Brooklyn Beats
Judiciary Slate
Of Republicans
Only Two Out of Five Can?
didates Backed by Living
sto?n, Organization Lead?
er, Named at Primaries
With the final returns in Tuesday's
primaries revised the outstanding fea?
ture in the judiciary contests is the
severe defeat administered to the R<>
fiublican organization slate in Brook
yn, sponsored by Jacob A. Livingston,
chairman of the executive committeo
of the Kings County Republican Or?
ganization. The accredited Republican
leader of Brooklyn landed only two of
the candidates he designated out of
the five chosen.
The jolt given the Livingston forces
in tY.o judiciary nominations came
after a heavier body blow delivered in
the gubernatorial contest when ?Sen?
ator George F. Thompson, whom Liv?
ingston had gone out of his way to
attack, carried the borough over Judge
Miller.
The Democratic organization slate
in the 2d Judicial District went
through without much danger threat?
ening the regulars. There were eleven
candidates for the rive places on the
Supreme Court bench in the Demo?
cratic primaries in the Second District
and fifteen Republican candidates.
Winners in Each Party
The five winners in each party and
the figures that nominated them fol?
low:
Republican?County Judge Norman
S. Dike, 37,508; Justice Joseph Aspin
ali, 30,151; Representative John Mac
Crate, 28.381; Justice Walter H. Jay
cox, 24,829; Selah R. Strong, 24,386.
Democratic County Judge Hurt J.
Humphrey, 43,508; Federal Judge Ed?
win L. Garvin, 42,719; Edward W. Mc
Mahon, 40.940; Justice Townsend Scud
dcr, 38,047; Charles J. Drnhan, 33,143.
The two men on the Livingston slate
who were nominated were Jaycox and
MacCrate. Justice Jaycox had the sup?
port of the Citizens' Judiciary Com?
mittee in addition to that of the Liv?
ingston organization. The other Re?
publican organization candidates were
Charles B. Law, a particular favorite
of Livingston coming from the latter's
home Assembly District; Frank S.
Gannon jr., of Richmond, and Walter
S Pettit, of Queens.
Regulars Poll Two to One
In the First Judicial District-?Man?
hattan and the Bronx the nine or?
ganization d?sign?es, including the five
sitting justices who were indorsed by
both parties, won handily. The regu?
lars polled two to one, and in some
instances three to one. over the three
independent candidates on each ticket
Four of the sitting justices are Demo
cras, but thi-y received tha full Re?
publican organization vote. Justice
John Ford, independent Republican,
who was also indorsed by the Demo?
crats, got the full Tammany organi?
zation vote.
District Attorney Edward Swann led
the Democratic ticket. He received \
38,837 votes. Justice William P. Burr,,
former Corporation Counsel, sitting
by appointment by Governor Smith, j
ran a close second, with 38,249. Dis-1
trict Attorney Francis Martin, of the
Bronx, was third, \vi;h 3'.231. The
other successful Democr:' candidates
in the Second District .re Justice]
Edward J. McGoldrick, a ..^ , sitting by]
appointment, and Justices Giegerich,,
Guy, Platzek, Erlanger and For<i. ?
Justice Charles L. Guy, a Demo- ?
cratic-fusion candidate, headed the)
Republican d?sign?es with a vote of j
32,569. The five sitting justices in- '
dorsed by both parties all received as
large, if not larger, votes in the Re?
publican primaries. James O'Malley,
formerly Deputy Attorney General;
Isidor Wasservogel, formerly Assistant
District Attorney; Robert McC. Marsh
and Harry K. Davis, the Bronx candi?
date, all straight party d?sign?es,
buried the three independent contest?
ants with big majorities. The inde?
pendents, Ralph V. Wechsler, Morris
S. Schector and Joseph R. Clevenger,
were left at the half-mile post.

Foss Credits Women With
Big Majority in Maine
Say6 75 Per Cent of the New
Voters Supported the Re?
publican Ticket
Former Representative George Ed?
mund Foss, of Illinois, told an audience
of women at a meeting of the New
York Young Republican Club, at the
Hotel Pennsylvania yesterday, that it
was the women who rolled up the huge
Republican majority in the election in
Maine. Mr. Foss has just returned
from that state, which he stumped in
behalf of the Republican candidates.
He said that 75 per cent of the women
voters voted for the Republican ticket.
The women, in general, he said, took a
more active part in the campaign than
the men.
"The magnificent majority fcf which
we carried the state," said Mr. Foss,
"is a good omen of the future. But we
must not be overconfident. We must
put our shoulders to th? wheel and
work hard, just as though the Maine
majority had not been rolled up."
Mr. Foss declared that while the
League of Nations was the big issue of
the Maine election, the people voted
the Republican' tickit not so much on
that issue as "on th? general principle
of turning out tho Democrats."
"That is the real issue we are going
to win on," sail Mr. Foss, "for the
people are tired rid disgusted because
of the inefficienc. and inc pacity of the
Democrats.
"At the begin ng of the Maine cam?
paign there w; t, strong sentiment in
favor of the i igue of Nations, but
when that que .on was discusses that
sentiment wa ?? changed completely,
particularly among women."

Hays Willing to Submii
League Issue to Women
Mothers Now Mav Decide
Whether Sons Shall Be Called
to War bv Foreign Powers
CHICAGO, Sept. 16. -Will H. Hays,
chairman of the Republican National
Committee, in a statement to-night
said the Republican party was willing
to let the women of the country decide
whether the United States "shall en- >
ter into obligations which will make '
their sons liable to be ordered by for- ;
eign powers to foreign soils to settle
foreign disputes.'!
Mr. Hays's statement was made, he
said, "apropos of the Maine election,
which was entirely devoid of local is?
sues, the fight being on the League of
Nations and Wilson." ;
"For 150 years the women of this i
ccunrty have given being to our sol- I
diers," said Mr. Hays.
"For 150 years the women of this |
country have inspired our soldiers to
deeds of unexampled heroism. But th? ;
women have had no voice in the dis?
position of these soldiers.
"Now, by the triumph of a supreme
justice, tho women will have a voice |
in the disposition of our soldiers. The |
Republican party is ready to let the |
women decide whether the United
States shall enter into obligations !
which will make their sons liable to ;
be ordered by foreign powers to for
eign soils to settle foreign disputes."

F. D. Roosevelt Lauds Party
Call? the Republican Camnai??
One of Vilification
BOSTON, Sept. 15.-Franklin n
Roosevelt, speaking at a meeting ?
the Common to-night, said that th?
Republican campaign had been one ?0f
vilification and condemnation of ever*.
thing any Democrat has done for the
last eight years." He said the Repub.
licans had offered nothing but "a -Ut
form composed of glittering general,,
ties," while the Democrats favored "s
definite program of progress at horn?
and in connection with our intern?,
tional relations."
"The Republican platform," J{r
Roosevelt said, "is a hymn of hate that
tries for purely partisan reason? to
condemn the things that have been
done, not only by the Democratic Ad
ministration but by the American peo.
pie during their participation in th?
war." Senator Harding was character?
ized by Mr. Roosevelt as "a reaction?
ary who always plays safe, never offer
ing anything constructive."
