BALTIMORE, October As p. m.
The contest for Mayor has closed with a tremen-
dous Democratic majority; SO large that no one
will attempt to claim il mere party victory.
The Catholic School bill, which was brought before
the Legislature at the last session, which Captain
France was charged with favoring, was the great
local cause of this defeat, causing an immense
| number Of Wings to vote for Mr.. Hollins, who was
| known to be bitterly opposed to it; whilst MIR.
France had, in the haste of business, signed Pc

Of Democratic Catholics voted for Mr.. France on
this ground also, strengthened the charge against
| him, and has been conclusively asccrtained that
many Of the most enthusiastic Wings Of the city
quietly determined TO sustain the public school sys-

The opposition papers will doubtless claim the
result as an indication of the vote Of the city

voted for Mr.. Hollins will in November labor with
more than their usual energy to convince the
friends of the Catholic School bill that the vote cast
yesterday was no party vote-that it was aimed
solely at that unpopular measure.
