MARYLAND
Baltimore, Nov. 3. The republic
ans elected their entire municipal
ticket In this city and will control
both braL ches of the city council. They
also carried all three of Baltmore's
legislative districts and the seat in
the United States senate now filled by
German hangs in the balance SO that
a few votes may turn the scale. The
contest for the legislature was very
close. Partial returns and q conserV-
atye estimate give 81 republicans and

nine "holdoycr" senators their total on
a Joint ballot will he 66, while the
democrats would have but 63. The
only chance then apparently left for
the democrats is to elect nine out of
the ii new senators, in which event
they will control the legislature and
elect a United States senator by one
vote OF the counties which will elect
senators five probably elected repub-
leans The other nine are possibly
democratic thus giving the requisite
number to secure democratic major
ity OF one.
Baltimore, Nov, 3.-Returns thus
far indicate that the democrats

/, | lincoln Nov. 3.--Nebraska Tues
day renewed her allegiance to fusion
by electing the three candidates on
that ticket by pluralitfes ranging from
10 .0C0 to 1000 Nothing like COM
plete returns have yet been received,
but enough is in to measure the result
and indicate greater fusion victory
than in the presidential year. From
fl sion headquarters the following was
given out. We carried Nebraska for
the fusion ticket by plurality of from
700 to $4,000 Together with the
magnificent victory for the state ticket
we carried a majority of the county
tickets The causes leading to the re-
suit is determination on the part
of the people OF Nebraska to demand
more and better money through free
and unlimited coinage of gold and sill
