BALTIMORE, Nd. November AL
though the echoes of Tuesdays elections
are beginning to die SWAY the differences of
opinion among the factions of the victo-
rious republicans are becoming more evil
dent daily, and already many sharp clashes
have occurred. Many republicans are be-
ginning to assert that Tuesdays result was
strictly party victory and they are in
clined to insist upon a display of PARTISAN
ship inconsistent with the ante-election ex-
doing out the fruits of the victory.
This assumption is denounced by Mr..
Wellington and the other republican lead
ers, who declare that the result Is due en-
tirely to the cooperation of the anti-Gor-
man democrats and the Independent demo-
count for aught the pledges of the candi-
dates will be fulfilled to the letter.
Inc sharpest contest among the victofs
is over the selection of a Senator to sue
coed Gibson, and number of candidates
have presented themselves. A number of
representative republicans favor setting
aside the law always observed by the demo-
c1ats of selecting one Senator from the
western and one from the eastern side of
the Chesapeake, respectively, and these
men suggest that this custom be ignored.
Wellington for Senator.
They suggest that Congressman yelling
tons name be brought forward. Mr.. We'll
lington's admirers insist that the senator
ship should be his.
Other republicans who are talked of are
James A. Gary of Baltimore county, and
the governor-elect. Few republicans favor
bringing Mr.. Lowndes forward at present
however. for should he give up the gov
errorship the president of the senate would
be called on to fill that office, and as that
body Is democratic, the republicans will
not consent to such a scheme.
The republicans generally hope to cap
ture the legislature two years from now,
in Which case Mr.. LowndeS will endeayor
to succeed Mr.. German.
The eastern shore men have no idea of
letting their right to the senatorship
escape, and a number of candidates have
come forward, the most prominent being
George NJ. Rusum of Caroline, Charles T.
Westcott, senator-elect of Kent, and Phil
lips l.. Goldsborough of Dorchester.
Legislative Schemes.
The democrats will control the senate,
nd their majority will prevent unduly par
tisan attempts at legislation. This defeats
scheme of the republicans to imme-
diately reorganize the police board and re-
district the city, schemes which certain
republicans have been discussing since the
election. There is considerable talk of the
| republicans combining with the anti-Gor-
man democrats in the senate, in which
cdSe NilHan Sapell bruce, the noid-oVer
democrat from Baltimore city, will be
elected president of the senate.
Mr.. Wellington and the other republican
leaders favor such a combination. The anti
German leaders in the senate are Mr.. Bruce,
Mr.. Pinkney J. Bennett of Carroll and Mr.
Oswald Tilgham of Talbot.
Gov. Brown today said to The Star CORE
spondeht that the democratic party should
now be reorganiZed and that Senator Cor
man and Mr. RaSin should retire from the
leadership, as they have been repudia ted
by the people at the polls and have led the
party to defeat.
