A sense of victory Is In tn cards
that havo most recently como over In
.thy soldiers' mall; It Is not put Into
' open writing, for In .that case It prob
ably would 'bo dejeted by the. censor, but
It Is there, all tho same, though Inter
polated with care. The soldiers feet
that tho spirit of the German army has
been broken beyond patching and It Is
on this they base their absolute confi
dence that the "Hun Is done."
At the same, time although tho daes
of these cards are recent, comlnjr down
to the time, when the' Interchange of let
ters for peace first began, tho soldiers
do not say this time a word about their
return. A few weeks befoio they were
declaring that they would be taking oft
their caps to Liberty ions beforo New
Tear'n
"Hoboken and home by Christroas"i
was their slogan In the early days of
September. In October this Is all cut
out and no predictions are made, It Is
s If their officers had told them to try
to appreciate the difficulties In the way
of a quick demobilization and tho ob
stacles In Uio way of embarcatlon and
transport.
It has not made any of the boys de
spondent; they are as gay and as eager
s' at Hrst. They went over to do a cer
tain thing and they are willing to stay
until It Is done. But In tho meanwhile
thoy wantthelr tobacco. The boys do
not hesitate to say that "Send it
along," they say, "until we advise you
when to stop. Send it along for the
holidays turet" ,
The American soldiers havo no hesi
tation In saying what they want, for
they know the mass of the people here
want to give them what they want,
and the first word that comes to the
lips of a soldier In answer to the ques
tion "What do you want us to send
you for Christmas?" Is "Tobacco."
If It were necessary for -The Bun
Tobacco Fund to make a real propa
ganda about soldiers' holiday smokes
there would bo one best one way to
begin it, toocontlnue It and to end It.
That wsyits by publishing tho cards
Hnd letters sent over by the men them
reives. They vary so, tbey are so In
dividual, that nobody can truthfully feel
bored by reading them ; nobody at least
whojdnres for human beings, and par
ticularly fori tho soldier Und,
A few of these cards, all about to
bacco, and- tho soldiers' hopes for a big
holiday supply follow:
"Let me havo the pleasure of ex
pressing the thanks of myself and
twenty .comrades hero In the hospital
who havo all enjoyed the smokes sent
over.- Ve havo only a limited way of
thanking you, nothing in fact except to
say that we are all .fighting and fight

to the E. W Miss Company of the fund

The Christmas Idea has proved already
a powerful Incentive) to many new con
tributors to Tub Son Tobacco Fund. In,
nearly every case where a name unfa
miliar iu win sinuse iiiiiu Hiipeari. on lei-
ter nnd check the formula used Is :
"We want the boys to have a good I
holiday and wc know tills means plenty
of smokes."
Do they really know what "plenty of
smokes" means when' It comes la sup
plying our vast army over In France?
The soldiers have told how .they hus
band the tobacco and how glad they are
when after "Investigating their pockets
for the remains of a bag of. tobacco or
the crumbling of a few cigarettes Tim
Sun Fund distribution comes along and
puts' them on Easy street again."
To keep them there "en .Easy street"
is beyond the power of this most gener
ous of all funds for their comfort: that
is easy to appreciate it one will but re
call how many soldletjs aro In Europe,
but of course the fund has never yet ad
mitted It was Impossible. Mut Ibis mak
ing a tremendous efTort to eend over
enough tobacco rufthat alt1 the American
soldiers,' shall feel free to smoke on
Christmas and New Year's as much to
bacco as he cares to. That can be done
with the prompt and generous response
of donors. Send along your glfls now,
don't wait until you have a bigger sum;
what you send wilt go, Into the Christmas
fund and you can supplement your gift
later.
One enemy Tub Sun Tobacco Fund Is
fearful of, that is time. If we do not
get the money promptly the aim of
everybody Interested will be defeated.
That aim Is to get plenty of emokes over
eo that the soldiers can treat themselves
to tobacco on tho coming holidays with
out stint.
It Is pleasant to say that the fund has
heard from Tut Sun tobacco boxes
placed for the reception of coupons and
certincates in tho Schulte and United
cigar' stores. A great number were
taken yesterday to be counted, and these
will be soon transformed Int6 money
that will buttress up tho holiday smoke
fund.

was Mrs. Veronica Tammany of 30

living In a strong Republican district
she proved true to her name by voting
a stralgrlt Democratic ticket.
This polling place, by the way, is a

the three moved upon the Board of
Elections, to tho end that yesterday
there was a grand and commodious
polling place on the street floor of the
Babcock Studios at 19 East Forty-ninth

Cap Stevens1 bought a dollar's worth
of heavy pink paper to protect the

Miss Hay was there on her tour or In

Several well known Democrats voted
there about that time, including Mr.

Miss Charlotte. Delnfleld Is suffrage

Miss Hay estimated that 1,000 women

Mrs. Catt said after she left the booth.
"I labored thirty years and went thous

Both loaders on their way to the polls
said they would vote for Gov. Whitman.

said. And Miss Hay was going to vote

Early Hoar Licenses Aro
Granted to Restaurants

ALL TLACES CItOWDED
Gaiety Reaches Height Equal
to Any Ever Established
in cyty.
The lifting of the official bah and the
granting of all night licenses to nineteen
restaurants and cabarets, most of them
In the heart of the theatre district, gave
New Yorkers an' opportunity last 'night
to celebrate the election as In days of
old. Thousands, tbVonged tho various
establishments eating, drinking, singing,
cheering and making merry In as up
roarious a fashion as the city has seen
for years;
Prior to Mayor Gaynors administra
tion election night doings knew little
restraint. Mnyor Oaynor Issued many
licenses which required the holders to
shut up shop at 2:30 A. M. After Mayor
Mltchel assumed office a deputation of
restaurant proprietors called upon him,
and at the 1917 election he agrped to
extend the closing hour to 3 :30 A. M.
The extra hour was obtained by the ar
gument that when Oaynor was Mayor
the "dance erase was in its Infancy and
that even the giddiest of pleasure seek
ers wero willing to call it a night and
quit around 2 :30. t
News that the lid was off In the caba
rets spread along Broadway with 're
markable rapidity last night. As early
ns 10 o'clock the cabarets were Jammed
with flushed and noisy crowds.
The list of establishments granted all
night licenses by tho Police Commis
sioner follows: Tho Palais Royal, 1190

Soldier Ignnrn Bulletins.
A notable feature of the gatherings
along Broadway and elsewhere was the
almost entire absenco of men In the
uniforms of the military services. Ap
parently the election counted little In
their young lives. Fifth avenue, whers
thero wero few bulletins, was full of
them; so were 'he theatres and the
lestaurants, high priced and low priced

the accommodation of men whose wounds
and disabilities might make It a hard
ship for them to pick their way In the
crowds which had been expected. One
soldier was induced by some one to sit
in it. Tho crowd, paying little uttmtlou
to the election figures on tho hcreen, be.
gan cheering the veteran. Ho stood it,
looking the embodiment of embarrass
ment for a few minutes, and then left his
place.
At most of the bulletin board places
the Intervals between arriving figures
wero enlivened by pictures of flags, sol
dlers and President Wilson thrown upon
the screen. These always evoked the
wljdest cheering, particularly the flag nf
Italy. And outside of the newspaper of

world news claimed thick crowds of
peoplo In every case.
MRS, STOKES FREED
ON REDUCED BAIL
Warned Against Voting After
Case Over Regis! ration
Is Adjourned.
Magistrate McGeehan granted yester
day a continuance until Friday of the case
against MPs. Rose, Pastor Stokes, who
was arrested Monday night at her home
at 88 Grove street dn a charge of Il
legally registering for tho election. Her
bajl was reduced from 13,000 to J1.500,
but both tho court and her attorney ad
vised her not to vote and told her that
It she did so It would be at her own
risk.
Immediately after Mrs "stokes was ar
rested she was taken to the Night court,
where Magistrate Marsh admitted her to
ball for hearing. When she whs brought
before Magistrate MrGeehan In the Jrr
ferson Market court Alfred L. Becker.
Deputy State Attorney-General, quoted
Section 11. "i of tlm Penal Code In support
of his contention that a person who had
been convicted of a felony forfeited the
right of ballot. Ho also declared that
Section 752 mado It a felony for such
persons to register or vote. He asked
for a forty-eight hour adjournment to
give the people time to prepare their
case, but this motion was denied,
George M. Oilman, who appeared for
Mrs. Stokes, said he could provo that
court decisions had been rendered which
gave an adverse Interpretation of tho
law to that expressed by Mr. Becker.
Ho argued that conviction In a Federal
court uf nn offense not recognized as a
felony under the New York law did not
bar one from otlng here.
"The people should bo prepared." said
th court in granting an hour's iiiljouni-
"I think It wa.s absolutely wrong
to arrest this woman on the eve of elec
tion when the crlnm sho Is alleged to
have commlttedr took place on October
12."
When tho heurlng was resumed the
prosecution was rcenforred by W. J.
Drlscoll and Robert M. Johnson of tho
District Attorney's office and Dr. Fred
erick L. Marshall, State Superintendent
of Elections. After a consultation Mag
iMrato McGeehan announced a contln
uanco until 10 o'clock. Friday to give
tho lawyers on both sides an oppor
tunity to prepare nnd present briefs.
"Why. this postponement practically
forbids Mrs. Stokes to vote, ns I wouldn't
liif enarge ne nismisen.
"If you don't wnnt tho postponement
we may an well thrash out tho whole
matter here and now," returned the
court.
Hut the attortie.is for the people ob
jected to this uud tho cmitinuunre was
finally iigreed upon. Magistrate Mc
Geehan nnd the lawyers on both sides
warned Mrs. Stokes what a serious thhig
it might be If sho tried to vote.

and cako to consumers o tho wages of
union bakers may bo further advanced
were discussed yesterday at a conference
of 150 master bakens of Manhattan at
Maennerchor Hall, Fifty-sixth street,
near Third avenue. Adam Metr, presi
dent of the boss bakers, said later that
the cost of production In leading ba
keries would be used as a basis for the
Increased prices, which would be an
nounced as soon as tho figures had been
decided upon. Pastry will be Included
In the new schedule. Thero aro now
widely different prices in various sec
tions of the city.
August 'Burkhardt, secretary of the
New York conference board of the
bakers unions, said yesterday that
Unions 1, 3, 5 and 164, with a member
ship of 5,000, would reject the open shop
proposals which he understood would be
rqade by the .Master Bakers Associa
tion. Burtihardt asserted that a num
ber of the. largo bakers had agreed to
pay the new rates demanded by the
union. Frank C. White and the Ward
and the Rockwell baking concerns wero
Included, ho said. Ho announced that
the Cushman company had agreed to
employ union men, although It had not
fallen Into line on tho question of signed
contracts. Thus far, he declared, 1,100
workers had won union conditions, but
many of the largo baking companies still
remained obdurate.

City Hall heard yesterday that Mayor
Hylau was preparing a reply to the at
tacks of Travis It. Whltnei'. Public .Ser
vice Commissioner, but word finally came
from his offlco that there would be no
statement.
Whitney's Undented Charge,
Mr. Whitney has charged the Mayor
with itrcvenllng, by opposition or Inac
tion, tho carrying out of plans that
would Mayo compelle'd the B. 71. T. to
use steel Instead of wooden cars; with
having sought and obtained favors from
the company when ho was a County
Judge; with having had advance notice
of tho motormen's strike nnd failing to
use his influence toward averting It ; and
with being disqualified to sit as Magis
trate In the wreck Investigation because
ho himself was discharged by the
B. B. T. for the same offenco attributed
to Motorman Iewis running a train
around a curvo too fast.
In the John Doo hearing before the
Mayor Monday It was made known that
the complaint not only says that the
train crew was Incompetent and Inex
perienced but that the road bed and
track at the place where the wreck oc
curred wero improperly constructed.
In this relation It developed yesterday
that experts employed by District At-
Morncy Lewis and the Tubllc Service
Commission have been studying the
curve where the train Jumped tho track
to see If It was properly laid out and
the outer rail adequately elevated. Bor
ough President Illegclmann raised this
question on Saturday.
Safe for HO Miles nn Hour.
Chairman Hubbcll of the Public Ser
vice Commission said the commission's
engineers deemed tho curve safe for
thirty miles an hour, the maximum speed
of subway trains. Itobert Rldgway, tho
commission's chief tunnel engineer, said
tho construction at the Malbone street
tunnel was entirely B. R T. work, both
In planning and construction, and that
the curve was laid according to the best
modern engineering practice.
"The radius was about 240 feet," he
said, "and the angle less than 41 degrees
The outer rail was a super elevation.
There wero slowdown signs before the
curve was reached, there were lights at
night, and, -as I am Informed, there wero
Inner guard rails."
When the Mayor's hearing Is resumed
at 11 A. M. to-morrow one of the first
witnesses Is likely to be T. F. Blewitt. di

iam Brody, trainmaster at the Culver
depot, testified he was authorized bv

HULBERT PIER PLAN
Federal Railroad nnd Steam
ship Managers Urgo Im
provements, Ho Snys.
ASK MAYOR FOR HEARING
Changes Will Result in Profit
to City nn,d Will Not
Incrcaso Taxes.
The plan .put forward for Improved
pier facilities and general port terminals
Improvement by Murray Hulbert, Com
missioner of Docks, has enlisted the ac
tive support of A. It. Smith, Regional
Director. Eastern ncglon, In th United
States rtallroad Administration: C. H.
Markham, Regional Director, Allegheny
Ueglon, and II. B. Walker, Federal man
ager for the Railroad Administration of
the coastwise steamship lines.
These Federal officials have been so
thoroughly Impressed with the practical
side of Commissioner Hulbert's pro
gramme that they have asked Mayor
Hylan and the Sinking Fund Commis
sion to hold a meeting as soon as pos
sible for the consideration of the Com
missioner's Ideas.
Their I.ettrr to Hylan.
In a letter addressed to the Mayor and
the Commissioners of the Sinking Fund
Regional Directors Smith and Markham
and Federal Manager Walker made the
following statement and request :
'The undersigned held an Informal
conference upon the Invitation of the
Commissioner of Docks for the purpose
of considering several matters affecting
tho transportation, Including steamship
facilities, iu the port of New Tork. Its
Importance to the port and to the city
is so great that we believe a general
policy must be laid down, and suggest
that progress to this end can best be
made by arranging a meeting with your
board at an early. date for that purpose."
Heretofore Commissioner Hulbert has
had they backing of the United States
Shipping Board, of Franklin D. Roose
velt and of Major-Gen. George W. Goe
thals, but now Jie .goes before tho ruling
powers of the city with the direct sup
port of he Federal agencies most Inter
ested In transportation Improvement.
With this support the Commissioner, as
was pointed out yesterday, will be able
to refute statements that his Improve
ment plan Is merely a "dream." The
former president of the New York Cen
tral Railroad, A. H. Smltln ndw the head
of the United States Railroad Adminis
tration In the East, and his colleague of
the Allegheny district and of the steam
ship management are exceedingly prac
tical men, When they appear before
the Mayor and the Sinking Fund to ad
vocate Hulbert's Ideas the accusation of
Impracticability Is pretty sure to be
dropped.
Little by little forces of public opinion
are rallying to the Hulbert plan, par
ticularly since tho Commissioner made
It clear that" his plan is a self-supporting
programme which would not Increase
the city debt but which, on the rontrary,
would Increase revenue. All that Is re
quired to put the plan in operation Is the
consent of the Sinking Fund Commis
sion, Including the approval of the Mayor
and the Comptroller and tho approval of
thi Board .of Estimate. Thereafter the
Commissioner would be free to put Into
effect tho results of many years study
of port needs and the results of actual
experience as the head of the dock sys
tem. Trio Ortataolca He Faced.
He has had two main obstacles to con
tend agaln't. Tho first objection raised
was that the United States Government
was Inimical to large programmes of
local Improvement at this time. Com
missioner Hulbert met this objection
with letters of approval for his plan
from the Shipping Board and the Rail,
road Administration. He has also. It
was said yesterday, the support of Will
iam G. McAdoo, Secretary of tho Treas
ury and DlreVtor-General of Railroads.
He can go to the Mayor and the Sinking
Fund with the definite statement that
the United States Government, urgently
favors the Improvements he suggests.
The second objection was on the score
of expense. He was told at the outset
that the city was In no position to ap
propriate $20,000,000 or so no matter
how badly Improvements wore needed ;
that the debt limit would not stand such
encroachments. To this tho Commis
sioner replied by proving he need not
touch the dbt limit at all, since he could
make his Improvements self-supporting
and nctualy profitable. This evidence
has brought about a change of attitude
at the City Hall, it was said yesterday,
and both Mayor Hylan and Comptroller
Craig are understood to havo relaxed
their antagonism. t
One of the big features of the Hul
bert plan Is to transfer from North
River deep water piers lines of New
England steamships that could be com
fortably accommodated at a system of
East River shallow water piers running
from Seventeenth street to Twenty-sixth
street. The saving In this Improvement
,would ben'efU both tho city nnd the
steamship lines affected. The latter
would save $100,000 a year U rentals
and the city would gain sovrral deep
water piers suitable for overseas trans
portation which could be rented profit
ably. Moreover, by the Hulbert plan the
wide marginal way along the East River
piers Is Ideal as a base for a. great New
England steamship terminal which
would be far more accessible to travel
lers than Is the present North River
terminal. In addition to these benefits
thero would be a relief of congestion
caused by the New England boats going
out of their way to use a North River
base, steaming 18,000 unnecessary miles
a year, and therefore wasting time,
fuel and labor.
t'rge Htnten Ialnnd Piers.
Another big feature which appeals to
the Federal authorities Is the utilization
of a waterfront section of Staten Isl
and almost directly across the harbor
from the Bush Terminal. C'.mnilsslonet
Hulbert will argue that waterfront prop
erty suitable for this pier system can be
purchased reasonably and that piers con
nesting the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road's tratlle from iho South could be
put up at rcasoncble cost. He has pros
pective tenants for these piers, and the
city, ho states, would realize handsomely
upon the Investment from the. first.
Still another link In the Hulbert plan
l the taking over of three Pennsylvania
Railroad piers, 3, 4 and 5, North River,
tearing them down and constructing n
their wtead two big modern piers, which
would be exceedingly productive as well
ss useful In commerce. Commissioner
Hulbert Is negotiating nt present with
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company for
tho purchase of these piers, which the
Pennsylvania does not need, and the
negotiation' have proceeded favorably
from the outset. At the same time the
Commissioner would take from the 1.
high Valley Railroad a pier whlcli Is not
being Intensively emplo'ed.
All the way up nnd down dm East and
roriii mver pier systems he sees weak
