BALTIMORE. May l6.-It is learned horo
that the sons Of threo Of Marylands most
prominent families sailed from New York
last Saturday on the filibustering steamer
Laurada for Cuba. where they will join
tho army of tho insurgents as officers Of
high rank Tho young mon are Osmun
Latrobo son OF Stewart Latrobe and
nephew OF ex Mayor Latrobe; Stewart
Jannoy, well known young society man,
who, with his brother occupied handsome
apartments at the Albany, and Dr. Smith
Mclkim, a young medical graduate Of the
University of Virginia and brother of
MoKim Bros, the Baltimore bankers.
The young men are all about % years Of
age and We're prominent members of the
Baltimore Athletic club and several other
swell organizations. They left their
homes, It is said, without the knowledge
OF their parents or friends and went d.
rectly 60 Now York, where they joined
the Laurada, which Is under command of
Captain Samuel Hughes, ,swho with his
ally, Captain John Hart has done 81

son had gone to Cuba but declined to
give any details regarding the matter
He appeared much grieyed over the affair.
The cause of the young men embarking
on such dangerous undertaking Is said
TO have been simply love of adventure
and strong Cuban sympathy.

BALTIMORE. Nov. 4.-Maryland has again
been struck by o political cyclone, the second
being of even greater magnitude than that Of
last year. when the Governorship and the State
and city machinery were all wrested from the
Democrats. The total vote Of Baltimore city
for President was as follows: Mckinley. 6I. 1854;
Bryan. A1s45: -.ernring. 1000; Palmer, Ibis;
| Matchett, 487; Bentley, 81. McKinley's plu-
ralIty, 1.109.
The vote In the State shows q plurality for
Mckinley over Bryan OF 0.S72. This Is the
largest majority given any candidate since Gov.
Oden Bowie was elected Governor in 1867. and
is IL 900 greater than Gov. Lowndes received
in last years election. Only one ward In Balti-
more city and five OF the twenty-three counties
declared for Bryan and free silver. The Eighth
ward. always a Democratic stronghold, gave IL
majority for Bryan. Queen Anne. Montgomery.
Worcester. Wicomico. and Caroline counties
| rolled up a total of .345 plurality for the Chi
| cago nominee. against 1881 in the remaining
eighteen counties for Mckinley.
Not only was the State torn away from its
customary moorinGs in the Presidential column
by a majority which the most enthusiastic Nc
| Klnleyite dared not hope for. but a solid Repub.
lican delegation will represent it in the lower
House of the Fifty-ffth Congress, a gain of two
