MARYLAND.
The American thus summarized the re-
suit in Maryland
In the midst of the triumphs of the Re-
publican party in other states, Maryland
is still tagging behind. Returns are COM
! ing in very slowly, and nothing positive
will be known until late hour this morn
ing. From present indications, McIane's
majority in the State will be about eight
Thousand. The State Senate will probably
be Republican. Returns so far had shown
the election of Burchinal, Republican
nominee for senator in Kent HOdsOn, the
| Republican nominee for senator in Somer-
set Steiner, the Republican nominee for
senator in Frederick, and also the Repub-
lican nominee in Calvert. If Kelly, the
Republican candidate for senator in WASH
ington county, and Brewer in Anne Arun-
dol are elected, the Senate will be Republic
can. The two latter are still in doubt.
Later returns may change the complexion
of affairs. The House of Delegates is
Democratic by a good majority. On the
whole, while the result is not as brilliant
as some sanguine Republicans have antic
ipated, the Republicans have made good
gain, and are ready to resume the fight
next year with more encouraging prospects
than ever before.
