Baltimore, Nov. 6.-No more perfect
day has ever dawned in Maryland than
that upon which the result of the cam
paign in this state is to be decided by
the voters. The polls in Baltimore
opened at 6 a. m. and a heavy vote re-
suited in most of the 304 precincts, it
being estimated that one-fourth of the
ballots in the city had been cast by
o'clock. There were no cases of dis
turbance and at the hour mentioned re-
ports from all parts of the city were to
the effect that all is quiet.
not open until o'clock The beautiful
weather throughout the state makes it
probable that the heaviest vote ever
cast will be the outcome. A conServa-
tive estimate based on registration in
dicates that 2eO, 000 votes will be cast in
the state, of which $4,000 viii go either
to Mckinley or Bryan, the balance be-
ing scattered among the various minor
candidates. Last year the gubernatOrial
vote was PSI, O0O of which the Demo-
Gratis got 124, 900 and the Republicans
10000, in round numbers. Four years
ago the vote for the Mckinley electors
was 10000, while that for Bryan was
but 104 000 out of a total Of 24e 900. A
decided change in the sentiment of the
voters has clearly taken place since then
and everything at this time indicates
heavy vote and a. close fight.
Baltimore, Nd, Nov. 6.-At noon more
than three-quarters of the vote of the
entire city had been cast. Reports from
the counties show that practically the
