MARYLAND DEMOCRATIC
Returns Are Meagre, Owing to Length
of Ballot


Baltimore. Nov. 4.-Returns from
Baltimore city and the Maryland coun-
ties are meagre, owing to the length
OF the ballot, and, therefore, it Is inn
possible to accurately estimate the
result. The indications, however,
point to the election of Edwin War
field, Dem, as governor over Steven
son A. Williams. Rep, and that the
legislature which will elect a United
States senator will also be Demo
cratic.
This morning only IS of the 3Os
voting precincts OF Baltimore city had
been reported to the election supervis-
ors' office. These. If the ratio Of Dem
ocratic gains are maintained, indicate
that Edwin Warfield, the Democratic
nominee for governor, has carried the
city by 1000 or 5000 plurality. Re
turns from the counties are meager,
but 1t is not thought that the Repub-
Hcan vote in the state can overcome
the Democratic plurality in Baltimore
city.

Right of Police to Raid Without
Warrants.

The question of the legality of the ac-
ton of the topeka police in raiding

ing those found in such places, without
a warrant for those arrested. will be
passed upon by the supreme court In a
habeas corpus action brought by Chas.
Magaw to secure the release of Vern
Harrison from the Topeka city Jail.
The prisoner was arrested Thursday
for being an inmate of a disorderly
house at 921 Kansas avenue. It has been
the custom of the police to raid such
places and arrest all persons found in
them under the law giving officers the
right to make arrests ION sight" when
they see violation of law, without first
securing warrants for the offenders
Attorney Magaw contends that this
applies only to such things as disturb
ances of the peace. robberies and like
crimes, where the Offenders are caught
in the actual commission of crime
which the officers are authorized to
promptly stop. The police proceed on the
theory that person found in a disor-
derby house or in charge of joint are
at that time guilty Of an offense and
can be arrested "on sight"
Soon after the arrest of the Harrison
woman Mr.. Magaw filed the application
for the writ of habeas corpus in the
