NEITHER CLAIMING THE EARTH,
But Matters Look Favorable for Hardin In
Kentucky.


Of news at the headquarters of both the
Democrats and Republicans. Reports
are SO meager that Chairman Norman
would say nothing more than that he be-
lieved Hardin was elected. He would not
say by what majority nor why he was SO
impressed. At the Republican headquar-
ters many private kilograms had been re-
ceived from the chairmen of the county
committees. Congressman Hunter chair
man of the state committee, was not fa-
vorably impressed with the returns from
the interior. He said that q continuation
Of these reports would indicate the elec-
elon OF Hardin by a small majority.
The Democratic majority four years ago
for governor was 2S016. In another talk
Chairman Norman refused to reiterate his
claim that Hardin's majority would reach
1000. The city Republicans are claiming
that they have won all the municipal
Offices except two or three school trustees,
and that the city and county will give
Bradley majority of from 6,OOO to S,UO0.
The chairman Of the Republican coun.
ty committee, with returns from two
thirds of the precincts before him. claims
that the majority for Bradley in jefferson
county, including this city, will be 5000.
The Republicans have captured all of tho
offices, with three minor exceptions. In
addition to this they have won the appel
late judgship and gained two representa-
tives in the lower house of the lcgisla.
turc.
Returns from ninety-five counties and
towns, mostly incomplete, give Hardin,
81, l5o; Bradley. e, 536; Hardin's majority,
3,619. Other returns received give Brad
ley majorities aggregating 1896, leaving q
net majority of ], ,22aa3 for Hardin.

Der Of votes. Baltimore city goes for the

KORTGARD'S CASE.
An Effort TO Take 1t to the Su

An Effort TO Take 1t to the SUI
preme Court.
Kristan Kortgard, the former presi-
dent of the defunct State bank, ap~
peared before Judge Smith yesterday
morning with his attorney, Capt. Hart.
Tie attorney is making great effort to
have the ease taken to the supreme
court. He wanted certain evidence in
the transcript stricken out, but Judge
Smith was very decided and stated that
he wanted the case 10 go to the upper
court right. and that he would be fair to
all parties.
During the consideration of the banks
statement there we're some very spirited
arguments by the attorneys. The states
attorney wanted the figures to go before
the supreme court, and Capt. Hart
argued that it was inmaterial. Mr..
Hart then read some statements to the
effect that the testimony showed there
was a panic at the time, that values
had become depressed; and that the
securities of the bank had deprecated,
as was the case with several others.
THAT isn't a fair statement" SAID the
court. "TEe testimony showed that
these properties were practically worth
less. In many cases the money was
borrowed before the corporations drew
the breath of lite" Il
Attorney Hart continued his argu-
ment at some length. at the conclusion
Of which Judge Smith made few re-
marks on the evidence and took the
matter under advisement. no.
