BALTIMORE, Md, June 9.-The Demo.
cratic State convention, which assem- bles
In this city tomorrow ut noon, will
be remarkable in that for the first time
In thirty years IL finds the opposing
political power In control Of ell the inn !.
portant offices In the State. The work
OF the convention will be confined 10 the
selection OF sixteen delegates to the
Chicago convention, and the adoption OF
resolutions setting forth the views OF
Maryland Democrats upon national
questions.
It seems probable that the deleeatio
to Chicago will be named by She wing
OF the party which acknowledges United
States Senator German ss It's leader. In
this event It will be headed BY John e.
Hurst, the party's candidate for COVER
nor at the last election who will 20 as
delegate ct large and who will have for
his associates John Gill. &. Edwin War.
neld and James Alfred Pierce. II Is pos
eiole, however, that the dominant fac
tion may in the interess of harmony de-
eide to allow their opponents equal rep
resentation, In which event 1t is likely
.nat thlsty-two delegates with half o
vote each will be named.
In no event will Speaker Gorman be
q delegate toChicago and IL is understood
snat ne Will not be Q candidate to re-
electlon to place on the national com.

little doubt but that they will contain a

HER HUSBAND A PARTY.
Mrs. Halliday Alleges Fraud in aReal
Estate Transaction.

Sarah Jeanette Halliday has begun a suit
against Thomas r. and Henry NJ. Martin
and the Allegheny Company asking the
court to set aside Il deed of trust on lot B,
square 101, and that an attempted sale
under the paper be set aside.
Mrs. Halliday claims TO have been victim
of fraud in which her husband, James b.
Halliday, was a participant. She says her
husband and William Fowler, under the
firm name of Halliday & Fowler, entered
the retail coal business September 2S, 1894.
They wanted to establish a credit with the
Allegheny Company, coal firm, and Of
fered to give it a note for $4,000, secured
bya deed oftrust on Mrs. Holiday property.
Mr.. Martin was trustee, but Mrs. Halliday
says no valuable consideration ever passed
for the note.
She says she did not sign the note volun-
tarly, but was induced to do so by her
husband, who used undue influence upon
her. Mfr. Martin as trustee was aware of
this fact, she asserted.
He advertised the property for sale last
February aud on March 4 sold 1T to his
brother, Henry NJ. Martin. for $s,6OO This
sale is void because the paper and writing
purporting to give the trustee authority to
SELLS void, says Mrs. Halliday. Mr. Martin s
brother has paid nothing on the lots yet,
she said, and she wanted the whole transac-
ton set aside.

TO q cOlOred trustee in that district, be

his children, as trustee and as a property
owner in the District. Major Harries
denied that the change was suggested be-
cause of the reason stated by DR.. Shadd,
and said that If DR.. Sbadd was serious
In his belief that such was the case he
would withdraw the amendment. Ma ior
Harries insisted that DR.. Sbadd was wrong
in his belief and that he was sorry to have
him think as he did. The doctor very
readily eXoDerated Ma ior Harries from ar
attempt TO be otherwise than fair in the
matter and finally withdrew his obiec.
tions. The amendment was passed.

which are given to the owners OF yachts
built in our own shipyards, and without
pa ying tonnage taxes, or entering or clear
ing at the customs houses.
Twenty-siX of these yachts have been
brought IN, and there are now building on
the Clyde, four large steam yachts, to
cost about 81 500, 900, for American citi-
zeps.
The bill requires of the owner OF a
foreign built yacht. that he be subjected
to the same requirements that are i'm
posed upon Americans who purchase other
classes of vessels abroad.
Mr. Vest, for the minority of the COM
mittee. gave notice of a proposed addi-
tional section, repeating all laws refus-
ing American registry to ships built abroad
