cLinery is working smoothly and quietly all
over the city. Up - this time there has been
no disturbance. and the day promises 70 Re An
uneyentful one. The indications are that the
full democratic vote is being polied and that
there will be the usual Democratic majorities
ell along the line.
The democratic leaders al the state and city
headquarters say they have no doubt whatever
OF the election OF the entire state and municipal
tickets the former by All increased majority.
The republicans do not appear to be bringing
out their full vote and in u great many wards
they are voting the democratic ticket In the
sixth ward the negro vote is being largely cast
for LHtrnbe, the democratic candidate Tor
mayor.
The independents arc pntting forth tremen-
dous efforts today to iortify themselves in
several dractions. They have enlisted in
their cause some of the shrewtest practical
politicians in the city. and while the demo-
Gratis evidently believe that they will he able to
elect their whole ticket, they feel that they
must have every vote that belongs to them in
order to receive such majorities as will make
that election valuable III its effects on next
year
Congressman Harry Wells Rusk. chairman Of
the democratic city executive committee. said
today that he WAS confident that the entire
democratic ticket will be elected by 5000 ma

WAKEFIELD CONFIDENT.
S. Davies Warfield, the independent and re-
publican candidate for mayor, Claims from
$500 to $500 majority for himself and Marbury
for states attorney. Other independent lead
ers claim that not only will Warteld and Mar
bury be successful, but that the in
dependents will carry the second legis-
chance in the first district. At tho republican
headquarters the main interest is conferred in
the third legislative district and the eleventh
and sixteenth wards for city council, all of
DOUBT whatever that the democratic leaders
honestly expect Latrobe to have at least LOCO
majority and that they will Lot be surprised at
any larger majority. He may get up to $1,000
If it goes above this figure it will indicate an
unexpectedly great division Of the republican
votes. The democratic leaders also feel pretty
secure concerning Mr.. Kerr's election now,
saults made upon 1n' him rendered h' some
of the more timid Of them doubtful. A
great reaction has undoubtedly set in,
and the tenders Of support received
other eminent citizens has changed many
votes. The independents have been making
strong efforts within the last few days to cap
ture the large Bohemian vote in East Baltimore,
the democratic stronghold. but the dem ocratic
managers had them all out and In line early
:his morning
The democrats have made house-to- house
canvass in some OF the wards. they claim. with
very gratifying results. Some Of the leading
Grand Army men are openly advocating the
election of Latrobe and Kerr, the democratic
candidates for mayor and states attorney.
Some sanguiue democrats are now claiming
that Kerr will rim ahead of his ticket, but this
is not probable. r-.. -..... -.
The polls are open from q. m. to p. M,
and with the blanket ballot the counting will
be very tedious process and will not be COM
pleted until late here tonight In some Of the
remote counties. particularly southern Mary
land it will DO impossible to get any accurate
information today.
