IN MARYLAND TODAY.
Balloting Begins For a Senator to
Succeed German.


Annapolis Nd, Jan. 1.-THE Mary
land general assembly will begin at
noon tomorrow to ballot for a United
States senator TO succeed the Hon. Ar
thur P Gorham, whose present term
expires in March, 1898. That Repub-
lican will be chosen is reasonably GER
tain, as that party has a majority in
both branches of the general assembly,
but who the lucky man will be is a
matter of the greatest possible uncer-
tainty The leading candidates at this
time are Judge Louis E. McComas of
Washington county, Major Alexander
Shaw of Baltimore City, General
Thomas j. Shyrock of Baltimore City.
and ex-Congressman John Findlay of
Baltimore City. OF these Judge Nc
Comas, who is supported by the state
administration, including United States
Senator Wellington, undoubtedly has
the most numerous following, and if
a caucus could be had he would prob
ably carry it with ease.
The sudden death of Representative
Wright of Queen Anne and the inabili-
ty of Representative Malcolm of Balti-
more county TO attend because of ill
ness, reduces the Democratic repre-
Sentation in the house to 40, while in
the senate they can muster but 8. All
of these will vote for Senator German,
the Democratic caucus nominee. The
Republicans have 40 votes in the house
and IS in the senate, but IL of these
are not in harmony with their party,
and this fact more than any other casts
doubts upon the final outcome of the
struggle.

cent fight, and Cans knocked it open
in the first round. Garrard bled pro-
fusely all through, and was weakened
by loss of blood. Cans kept jabbing
him in the face with both hands and

staggering, and the police stopped the

GREAT EXCITEMENT.
Alleged Confession of Dreyfus VIII
Not Be Made Public.

Paris, Jan. 17.-There was great ex-
element in the chamber of deputies to-
day when NJ. Cavaignac, Republican,
demanded a discussion of the semi
official note issued today in which the
government declined to make public
the alleged confession of Alfred Drey-
fus to NJ. Northumberland. The pre-
mier, NJ. Meline. in refusing 20 dis
cuss the matter, declared that if the
chamber voted its immediate discus
sion, the cabinet would resign.
The house then by a vote of 30 to
252 adopted a motion shelving the dis
cussion.

TWENTY WOUNDED.
According to some accounts 20 people
were wounded in the cavalry charge
outside the Tivoli hall, which the police
eventually cleared. The imprisoned
committee in the tribune were unable
to make themselves heard, and hung
out a placard announcing that the pro-
ceedings were closed.
There IS no doubt that the policy of
the government is beginning to be
strongly assailed. General Billot, min
lister of war, is especially the object of
attack, and the smallness of the ma
jority in the chamber of deputies today
indicates the waning of Nj. Meline's in
huence.
