AT 4 o'clock n large crowd assembled
at the baseball park to witness game of
bali between the Union Stars, of this city,
and the Lynchburg team. 1t was evident
from the start that the locals were not in
the game.
Lynchburg went to the bat and Marsh
led off with n two Dagger over centerfeld
and it looked like the Hill Climbers were
going to have an easy time. Sole went
ont on II fly to light field. Kelly got his
base on the short stops error, and Glass
came to the bat and knocked Il Single,
which scored Kelly and Marsh. .
The Union Stars came I'D and were put
out i'll one, two. three order. In the sec
ond inning G. Ballentyne made n two. base
hit but failed to score.

MARYLAND RETURNS.

Gorman's Successor Will Likely Be .
Democrat, but the Result Is Close.
BALTIMORE, Nov. with semi.of.
fetal returns from all the counties in
the state except St. Marys and Calvert
and fairly good estimates from these,
the Democrats appear to have elected
enough members to the next legisla-
ture to give them a majority of five on
joint ballot and to insure them United
States senator to succeed Senator Cor
man. Official returns may be necessary
to decide the position of some OF the
counties and these may alter the result,
but from the best obtainable figures at
this time the Democrats appear to have
total of 81 legislative votes while the
Republicans have 81. The state senate
will be Republican by a probable ma
jority of 4, while the Democrats appear
to have captured the lower house by a
majority of 8.
Hangs on One Vote.
Chairman Vandiver of the Demo.
cratic state central committee, said at
noon that the result on the Legislative
ticket in Maryland depends on single
vote. He has counted 81 as being GER
tain in the Democratic column, and ex.
poets to get one from Montgomery
Comfy to make it certain. Calvert
county is also to be heard from, and he
has strong hopes Of carrying it. Later
advices place Anne Arundel safely in
the Democratic column, but telephone
message from Attorney General Cla.
bagh says that Carroll county will re-
quire an official count. The Democrats,
however, insist that they will get al
least three votes there.
The Madison daily leader. [volume] (Madison, S.D.) 1890-current, 1897-11-04

has specials from all the close counties
and it makes the legislature on joint
ballot stand 73 Republicans to ~ Demo.
Gratis and claims there is no doubt about
this result. In the event of the Repub-
licans controlling the legislature it is
conceded that Hanna will be returned
to the senate. In the event of the Dem.
ocrats controlling, it is almost equally
certain that John r. Mclean will be
made senator. The residences of the
former in Cleveland and of the latter in
Cincinnati are in constant communica-
ton with their respective headquarters
in this city.
Democrats Concede the St .te Ticket.
During the afternoon the Democratic
state committee abandoned claims to
the election of their state ticket, but
announce that their majority in legis.
lature on joint ballot will not be less
than six and may possibly be nine as
predicted earlier in the day by Chair.
man McConnville. Chairman Nash
states that the Republican plurality on
the state ticket will be from $4,000 to
$1,000 and that the Republicans
;. will have at least three ma.
jority in the legislature on
joint ballot for senator. Among the
doubtful ones has been Delaware county,
which has now reported the election of
the Republican representative by Is
plurality. Chairman Nash annouleed
that the legislature would stand IS Re-
publican and 70 Democratic. The Even.
ing Dispatch Qnd. which has advices
from all close counties, has special
confirming the election Of Republican
representatives in Delaware county and
it has changed it's tables so as to give
the Republicans majority over all Of
two OH joint ballot in the legislature,
and making that body stand ~ Repub.
licans and II Democrats.
Allen w. Thurman, who has been
figuring closely on the legislature, says
the Democrats will have majority
over all ON joint ballot OF six. Among
the counties from which contests are
announced on the legislative, tickets are
Adams and Pike, Wood, Belmont, Han
cock, Mahoning, Morgan, Muskingum
Noble and Williams, and in some Of
these counties trouble is expected this
week.
Late in the afternoon the Republi
cans conceded the election of the Dem
ocratic representative in Wood county
and changed their figures SO that they
now claim only two majority over al
on joint ballot in the legislature for sen
ator. The Evening Dispatch (Ind.) OF
its advlces from Wood county, changed
Its table so as to give the Republican,
only one majority on joint ballot as fol.

OHIO VERY CLOSE
Democrats COncede the Election
of Bushnell But Claim
Hanna's Defeat.
Republicans Only Claim Two Ma
jority on Joint Ballot For
Senator.
It Will Probably Require an
Official Count to Definitely
Decide.

COLUMBUS, Nov. 4.--The result of the
election in Ohio is still in doubt. With
more complete returns it is evident
,,S.hat it will require the official count to
satisfy the contestants. The more the
respective parties figure on their re-
turns the smaller their pluralities seem
to become while their claims increase in
opposite directions. The closeness Of
the vote has caused intense feeling and
the usual cry of fraud. When the re.
sult was in doubt in 1885 it was discov.
cred that the tally sheets were forged.
The Republicans have telegraphed to
all their county committees to beware
of the frauds Of 1885. And when the
Republicans were claiming the legisla-
ture by only one or two majority on
joint ballot the Democrats telegraphed
their county committees to beware of
all sorts of fraud and to remember that
it was majority of one by which the
great crime of 1876 was committed that

ters will be kept open all week or until
the official counts are made in all Of the
81 counties Of the state. It is expected
that there will be trouble in some of the
close counties. There will, no doubt,
be much agitation in all Of them.
Meantime Both Sides Make Claims.
Meantime the managers at both the
Democratic and the Republican state
headquarters are claiming the state.

ican state ticket has been elected by q

publicans will have q majority Of two

they will not have majority in the
state senate which would prevent the
passage Of what are known as ''rippers, y
or any other partisan legislation. The
Republicans claim II Of the 86 senators

A SLICK C0UNTERFEITER.
John Skoog, Who Had to Leave
Sweden, is Arrested in
Chicago.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 30.-Chief
Fazen Of the secret service has received
the following telegram from Agent Por-
ter at Chicago:
John A. SkGOg was arrested last night
by Policemen Mcdonald and Rogers for
offering one of the new counterfeit $40
silver certificates. He had four others
in his possession. He refused to give
the police any information whatever He
was turned over to us this morning and
gave his name and address, and con-
fessed that he is the maker Of said notes
and the only ''shover" of same. The
notes were made by the photogravure
process. He was also making 100
kroner notes on the Sveriges Riksbank,

had no accomplice. He passed the first
$40 here last November and has passed
twenty-five since then, all in Chicago.
He left Sweden four years ago for coun-

THE VENEZUELA TREATY.
Not Likely TO be Signed in Time to be
Sent by the Next Steamer.

Washington. .. c., Jan. 30.-The Brit
ish Venezuela treaty mas not advanced 10
a stage where it can be said with any
definiteness when it will be signed and
there is no present agreement for sign
ing the document in time to go by the
steamer leaving for Venezuela in the
near future The acceptance of King
Oscar to act in the matter has not yet
been received and in view of recent
criticisms of the monarch this may oc-
casion delay. although there is no serious
apprehension of such a contingency.
The personnel of the British arbitrator
is also an open question. There is Il
general desire to have Lord Herschel
serve, but as he is absent on he CONT
nent some difficulty exists as to fully
communicating with him. He is felt to
be eminentiy fitted as his service as
chancellor makes him second only to
Gladstone among the conspicuous men
of England He is not a member of
the present government, and is felt to be
free to accept the place so far as official
obligations are concerned.
His associate has not been mentioned
thus far and references made to the prob
able choice of Lord Chief Justice Russell
and Sir Francis Lockwood are mislead-
ing, as they have not been considered
1t is regarded as settled that Chief JUS
tice Fuller and Justice Brewer will be
the American arbitrato tors.
