NEW! YORK. Sept. 14.-—Henry H.
Curran. Coalitionist-Republican. now
president of the Borough of Manhat-
an. will be Mayor John F. Hyiau's
opponent at the polls next November.
Curran won the Republican nomin-
ation by :1, vote of more than two and
a half to’ one over the nearest of his
three rivals in the primary elections
yesterday. His vote with all but 245
of the 2.733 election districts in. was
91.188. F. H. La Guardia. president
of the Board of Aldermen. his closest
rival. got 33,709. Judge Reub1n Has-
kcil. of Brooklyn. who ran on a "wet
referendum" platform. got 25.463.
Wilziam M. ileum-ti. former state. sen-
ator, was a poor fourth. with 4.296.
While the Republican campaign
produced some verbal thrills. it re-
mained for the Democrats to furnish
the real excitement of primary day.
James J. Hines wont to the polls as
a candidate for the Democratic nom-
ination for president of the Borough
of Manhattan for the avowed purpose
of toppling Charles F. Murphy from
his pinnacle of Tammany leadership.
This he hoped to do by defeating
Murphy‘s candidate, Julius Miller.

 

,.

\thn the fray was over. Hines
found himself trailing far behind
Miller. while Hines' campaign man-

ager, Joseph Shallock was nursing the
results of a more literal drubbing.
consisting of concussion of the brain.
two broken ribs. ’3. broken arm and
scalp abrasions that necessitated the
taking of forty stitchrs. Ills wounds,

Shalleck charged, were administered
by a group of men in an election
booth in Murphy's home district.

whither he 113,11 gone with several ad-
herents to investigate reports that “75
pt rcent’: of the ballots there were
forged." Shalieck charged that, one
policeman and, several detectives of
the city force participated in the as-
sault on him.

The attack on Shalleck was follow-
ed closely by an attempt of armed
men ,. in' automobiles to kidnap the
ballot boxes from the same booth in
Which he had been beaten. This at-
tempt was frustrated after a. busillade
of shots. whereupon the ‘automobile
Party drove to the Anawanda Club.
Where )(urphy was receiving returns,
and ‘shot the place up. Several pr-
Sons were reported struck by flying-
fragments of windowtlass. but none
was hit by a bullet. ,

who are disturbed over 5,735,000 un-
employed of today. overlook that in
1914 there were 7.000.000 out of work.
a larger percentage of whom were
actual bread :winners than in the pres-
ent unemployed. Secretary Davis said
today in a statement.

Declaring that the country has just
passed through a period when every
effort was made to induce men and
lothers who had not worked for wages
or salaries before to “Work and save
starving Europe." Mr. Davis said
present unemployment figures include
great numbers of persons upon whose
earnings no one actually‘is dependent.

"While we have our unemployed.
let us not forget the 12.000.000 who
are still at work," the statement said.
“A further encouraging fact is that
$500,000,000 is now available about
the country in the form of bonds al-
ready issued or appropriated by the
State. county and municipal govern-
ments for public works. Undoubtedly
this will be organized intelligently."
