SEVERE FIGHTING NEAR LOOS
[LECTION RESULTS PLEASING
TO BUSINESS LEADERS
A D A. Service.
NEW YORK, Nov. 9.—Leaders of
the business world generally express
themselves as being highly gratified
b> the results of the recent election.
Tne deduction they draw from the
balloting is that the voters have be
, rue tired of experimenting and un
settling business legislation and are
i [drained to adhere to the policies
h: t make for stable conditions.
The wise ones also contend that
•.he election discloses that the masses
of the people as well as the moneyed
classes are in thorough accord as to
what has been the disturbing Influence
and have decided to return to reasona
ble measures.
It is contended that the utter rout
of the adherents of the new constitu
ti n, which was shaped principally by
reactionaries, is the most significant
. idence that the people have com
pletely changed their minds about a
good many things and are not willing
o permit anything of a disturbing na
ture to Influence the stability of busi
ness conditions now that tiiere is a
tendency toward greater commercial
expansion. The defeat of the constl
tutlon is generally interpeted as a
clear warning that the people are, in
the words of a noted leader in the busi
ness Vorld, "determined to yield- none
i f their rights; none of their privi
leges; none of their freedom." The
same optimism seems to prevail among
business men throughout all of the
several states Involved in the recent
elections and this is pointed to as the
greatest evidence that business recog
nizes a new trend of thought in the
minds of the people.

LIVERPOOL., Nov. 9.—At a meeting
held here last night to protest against
the exodus of young men who are
fleeing the country to escape the con
scription order which It believed is
soon forthcoming, one of the speakers
declared that there Is every reason to
believe that the passage money for
dozens of the Irish emigrants who
were preparing to leave for America
was advanced by Germans, German
.Americans and German sympathizers
in the United States and who are do
ing everything possible to cripple the
defences of the empire by such means.
The recent rush for the booking
agencies from all parts of Ireland has
led to the finding of evidences that
prospective emlgrees were being sup
plied with money from some unknown
source and It Is generally accepted
that the declaration stated Is very close
to the truth.

BRITAIN RESTRICTING
MALE EMIGRATION
A. P. A. Service.
LONDON, Nov. 9.—Orders were is
sued by the home office today requiring
nil male subjects of Great Britain from
nineteen years of age upward wishing
to buy passage to foreign lands must
apply to the foreign office for pass
ports before they will be allowed to
leave
The order, which became effective
imedlately, affects nearly two thou
sand persons, mostly men of military
age who are already booked to sail
on American steamship lines on the
rext two sailings.
The order is the direct result of an
immediate rush to leave the country
because of a fear that a general con
scription order was about to be ls
«yd. 1 is generally accepted here
that the order means that the authori
ties are at least decided that conscrip
tion must be employed to swell the
forces of the empire to the maximum
required. By the promulgation of the
passport order the officials have ef
foninally blocked any attempt of ellgi
blcs to escape from the country.

SOLONIKA, Nov. 9.—Reports arriv
ng here today from the Serbian coun

ceedingly narrow escape from capture
■ >y the German military forces at the
line of the capture of Kraljeve by
the invaders. The Serbians having
arried on a terrific resistence against
he powerful German forces were near
ly surrounded before the terrific as

disconsolate at the repeated reverses his

troops have been compelled to suffer,
j was borne from the town In an am
bulance Just a few hours before It was

apparently retreating in every direc

effective resistence to the superior
,'orces of the Teutons who are gradual
ly exterminating the Serb armies with
iheir powerful guns against whicli the
latter have little or no defense.
