MARYLAND'S FIFTH DISTRICT.
Judge John II. Brook After the Dem-
Ocratic Nomination

Special Dispatch 10 The Evening star
BALTIMORE, Nd, July 2S.-Republicans
and democrats here alike are surprised at
the announcement of the candidacy of
Judge John b. Brook of Prince Georges
county for the democratic congressional
nomination in the fifth district About
fifteen years ago Judge Brook left the
democratic party and became an appellate
judge of the circuit court for Prince
Georges county, and during his term has
been regarded as an Out-and-out republican.
His term expires this fall, and his reason
for re-espousing the case of the democracy
is attributed to his advocacy of free silver
When the announcement of his aspiration
to secure the democratic congressional
nomination was first made members of
both parties were not disposed to treat ii
seriously, but that Judge Brook is thor
oughly in earnest, and has no difficulty in
regarding himself as a democrat again,
there is every reason to believe.
Among those who are mentioned as iiis
successor are F. Snowden Hill, eX-collector
Of internal revenue; Mr. Geo. ii. Merrick
and Assistant Secretary of State Lowry.
The prevailing opinion is that Governor
Lowndes will appoint Mr. Merrick.
The recently revived opposition to Speak
er Mudd's congressional aspiration is hold
ing its own, and the speager's friends are
loud in their cries Of 'treachery." The lat
est object of their criticism is John A. Belt
of Prince Georges county, who is accused
of having gone over to the Gary faction.
Mr.. Belt refuses to indicate his position.

doubt in regard 10 their having taken part

Iransvaal 1t was entirely unimportant, in
the opinion of Lord RUSSELL whether the
foreign enlistment act had been proclaimed
at the places named in 1895.
There was no doubt, he said, that the ex-
pedition was Of military character. and
Mhether 1T was aimed to overthrow the
IransVaal government or to force a change
of the laws in the republic in the interest
against a friendly state.

Lord Russell, throughout, summed I'D
most adversely to the raiders and conclud-
ed with submitting to the jury a series of
questions difficult to answer any way but
aifirmatively.
After an hours absence the jury returned
and answered all the questions in the af-
firmative.
Thereupon the chief justice said that this

swallowed up by the Bryan forces and to
have gone into the presidential campaign
