Whole Ticket. With Exception of
Sheriff, is Elected.

BY Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, Nd. November 6-Com-
plete but unofficial returns from the city
of Baltimore give Herring, democrat, for
controller, 1926; Platt republican, 4O393
The republicans also elect their entire city
ticket with the exception of Davis for
sheriff. who appears to be beaten by about
eco majority, and the indications are that
| they have carried all three of the legisla-
tive districts. which will give them eighteen
delegates and a state senator.
The returns from the state are still very
slow in coming in, and the first experience
of a general election under the new law
has not proven satisfactory. Not for many
years has there been so great a delay in
arriving at the result in the city as there
was last night. Under ordinary conditions
the entire vote has been counted and an
nounced by l o'clock, but at that hour last
night less than $50 precincts, not half of
the city. had been reported, and from the
counties not over a dozen election districts
had been heard from in this city.
The Americans Claims.
The Baltimore American in an extra is
sued this morning, comedies the general
assembly to the democrats on joint ballot
by majority of twelve, but in order to do
this it has included Cecil county in the DEM
ocratic column. Later advices from there
however, indicate that the republicans have
carried it and elected their entire legislative
ticket and successor to state Senator Aus
TN Crothers tdemocrap. In other counties
the result is SO close that the official count
may be necessary to decide it. and in the
second legislative district two of the repub-
lican candidates have such a narrow mar
sin that recount may defeat them. Both
sides are still claiming the legislature. and
neither side is conceding anything outside
of the city.
The Baltimore Sun, in an extra issued at
IL clock this morning, gives the following
figures on the legislature
The indications from the latest returns
received this morning are that the general
assembly of Maryland will be democratic in
posn M pidnches. 1he senate will probably
contain seventeen democrats and nine re-
publicans.
