Vote In Maryland.

turns here up to n late hoLr Thursday
night indicate that the vote for the
presidential canc.trtes last Tuesday
was very close. p1sa.h'y 100 on either

upon to decide which of the electors
will be entitled to cast their votes in
Washington.

more city aad in the 90 counties of
the state met at noon Thursday. In

in doubt.

ceived the indications are that the re.
publicans have elected seven and the
democrats one of the electors of the

ors plurality of ia. Until the can.
vassing boards of the several coun.
ties and of the city of Baltimore shall
have examined and counted the bal.
lots. it will be impossible to say which
of the presidential candidates will re.
ceive Maryland's electoral vote.

sentatives.
