MARYLAND.

Baltimore, Nov. --latest unofficial
figures of the result in the State of Mary
land indicate that Parker has possibly
carried the State by l76, but it is posi-
BILE that the electoral vote may be d.
vided. Many persons voted the name at
the head of the list of electors instead of
the names of the candidates, thus caus-
ing Frank Brown, democrat, and Charles
J. BOpaparte, republican, to run several
thousand ahead of the other electors,
Both sides are nov claiming the State
and tho official count will likely be
necessary to determine the result

A SIGNIFICANT paragraph appears IN
the Gazette's Washington correspon-
dence today. There was silent issue IN
connection with last Tuesdays election
that attracted but little of the attention
of newspapers or public speakers which
was vital, and the votes OF great
majority of those supposed to be IN
tere,ted in il was significant. We refer
to the 'open shop" policy OF President
Roosevelt Mr.. Roosevelt some time
ago. in the Miller controversy, insisted
upon making the government printing
Office an "open shop" and consequently
incurred the temporary hostility OF
MANY advocates of organized labor. 1t
is 4 notable fact, however, that the
majority of those composing these or
carnations voted for Mr.. Roosevelt, and
virtually signiGed theic approval OF
his course in maintaining that the gov
eminent has the right to employ men
REGARDLESS of their affiliations with
unions. This is not intended as charge
of paradoxy or inconsistency on the
part of the working element, but is re-
terred to as a conservative and common
sense procedure on their part. Working
mep. when left to their own sober re-
Elections, are as easily entreated as other
peopie 1t is only when implacatle
noitattrs are ia evidence that trouble
occurs.

Sixth Attempt TO Wreck Train.

The sixth attempt to derail the south
bound passenger train on the Valley Di.
vision of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail-
road, the details Of which were suppress
ed until yesterday, has become known
IL Winchester. Last Monday night Ell
gineman Chas. Payne, of the southbound
train, struck pile of railroad ties that
had been laid across the track, but, as
the train was running at reduced rate
of speed, the impact wss not sufficient
to derail either the engine or any OF the
cars. The airbrakes were applied sud-
denly, and several passengers were
thrown from their seats and badly shaken
up. As on former attempts, the scene
was at point short distance from the
depot at Kernstown, three miles from
Winchester. Fifteen minutes ahead Of
the train four detectives on a handcar
inspected the ira k, and when KerDs-
town was reached the track was report
ed clear The train was then allowed
to proceed. The attempted wreck was
at once reported to the division superin-
tendent at Winchester, and special
train of officials and detectives hurried
to the scene. Bloodhounds were taken
to the point at which the attempt was
made, but the dogs failed TO take up the
scent, and the detectives have made no
arrests. The force assigned on the case
has been doubled within the past day or
two. A week ago the fifth attempt was
made to derail the passenger train. Rail-
road ties and dynamite we're used un-
successfully. The belief prevails that a
desperate gang of criminalsi is engaged in

Murders in London.

Within the metropolitan police
district of London, which COM
prises 68S square miles and has a
population Of {, 100000 there were
committed last year only twenty
murders. In four cases the muir
derers committed suicide. In all
the others the murderers were
discovered and arrested by the po-
lice. Thirteen Of them were tried
by the courts within the same
year, and nine Of them were hang
ed and four were adjudged insane.
What disposition was made OF the
other three is not stated in the
report before us. The statistics
are important in that they show
much fewer capital crimes in that
vast population than would be
presumed to occur. No American
large city can show a similar good
record. In other respects they are
exemplary, as IN the TACT that the
perpetrators Of all the murders
we're secured, or, at all events,
discovered; that they were
PROMPTLY tried and promptly pun
ished when found guilty, The
police force in London consists Of
r4,476 officers and men, with an
annual pay roll Of about $1,000
900. But it is not in politics, a
fact that may account for its ef-
fciency in dealing with great
criminals. London by this show
ing would appear to be safer
place to live in than any American
large city.

Charles f. Murphy, head Of the
Tafnmany organization, and since
Nov. 3 one Of the most import
ant political personages in the
country, has held but one public
offce--that Of dock commission
er. It is understood that those
who care 70 do SO are able to
make a good deal Of money while
holding that Office. At one time
q Iammany man gave up a place
paying $1,000 a year salary 10 ac-
cept that Of dock commissioner at
$1,000. On being asked why he
did 50 he answered more or less
anbiguoasly "Well, you see,

The seaboard ConsOIIdatIOn.

Public attention in the acquisition
ef The Seabosrd Air Line by the
Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific
combination has been akogetheg
concentrated upon the rapid fash
ion in which a road with 1000 miles
of line and a tidy surplus, which
made its shares worth twice their
par value, has been turned into a
system Of some 1900 miles, o.
one-tenth the mileage in this coun-
try, and an aggregate capital OF
$68o,ooo, 900.
But this is only part Of what
has been done. Public safety in
great aggregations Of property has
hitherto rested upon the circum-
stance that its control required
means SO large and a stake so
enormous that it alone would bring
consefvism. This is not the case
here. By the use of the holding
company" and ingenious grant OF
powers to preferred stock the en-
tire management of this vast sys-
TEN, which lies like a gigantic Z,
crossing the United States, its stem
in Texas and Mexico and its two
arms ending in Chicago and Nor
folk, is under the control of the
preferred stock Of the Rock Island,
and the majority of this preferred
stock would cost today about $16,-
100000.
What has really taken place,
therefore, is that a little capital,
relatively speaking, and a great deal
Of credit have been used to acquire
temporary control Of a great rail
road property, the Rock Island.
This gained, further control has
been secured Of 1900 more miles
Of railroad, including affiliated
lines, and the load Of carrying this
great mass is dexterously shifted
onto the public, while all the profits,
and, if those in control please, all
the plumber possible from control,
is retained in a small body of pre-
ferred stock, easily owned by what
in these days represents compare
lively limited resources.
There is no railroad property in
the country, 50 much faster have
private fortunes grown than COR
porate capitalization, which could
not be captured by this ingenious
plan. Once captured and in the
hands Of a pliable board of direct
ors any use might be made Of the
property of such corporation with
out incurring legal responsibility.
Steps like these combine the au-
dacity of personal control and the
continuity Of corporate ownership.
Toward such a combination the
courts have never been friendly.
The Northern Securities case began
as a suit which only raised a ques-
ton Of protection against coinpeti-
ton. It may end as a case menor-
able because in it the supreme court
will decide that the holding com
pany" is device by which all the
benefits of corporate ownership are
gained and all its responsibilities
evaded.
Il is certainly clear that before
long tnere viii be some appalling
case Of tss speculative plumber Of
4 great railroad which will require
drastic legislation for the protec-
tion Of the vast powerless herd Of
shareholders Tito which the owner
ship of corporate properties is now
divided, or is being divided.

that others of her her place socially and this Of
the geisharls important No matter how
the Japanese husband be- his wife
lea1 devoted him. If he divorces with

social substitutes daughters
who allowed to be at dnnerpary Japanese
nobleman home much less in teahouse. The writer admits
that no small number of the geishas be ranked
fallen women but ALL Their usual function lend life,
color and gayey social gatherings. AT dinner
house for four guests would want adhered
TONS four maiko (apprntices and gesha for say three
hours and the elaborate and frst-class
Guiding tips and everything would about dollars The
gesha only engaged ahouses and

they social substitutes And however loose be their
talk geishas always modest their actions The geisha
also occupy large place commercial factor wholesale
