AWAITS OFFICIAL COUNT
Status of Maryland Cannot Be Deter
mined Until Passed Upon BY
Board of CanVassers.

A Baltimore special of Friday says;
That an official count of the ballots
cast for the presidential electors in
Maryland will ,be required before def
iriite knowledge Of the result can be
assured. has been demonstrated by the
semi-off1cial count in Baltimore city
and in twenty of the twenty-three
counties of the state The returns re-
ceived thus far inlicate that seven dem
ocratic and one republican elector
were chosen. The congressional situa-
ton remains unchanged-three demo
cratic and three republican congress
men having been elected.
The state board of canvassers, con-
sistihg of the state comptroller, the
secretary Of state; the clerk of the
court Of appeals and the attorney gen
eral, will make the Official announce
ment of the vote. This board must
meet and complete its labors within
thirty days after the day Of election.
1t is explained by the election super
visors and the political leaders that
the installing of ballots caused the dis
crepancy between the vote for the ma
tional and congressional candidates. In
this connection charges of fraud are
made by the leaders Of either party
and it will be necessary to await the
official count to decide upon the ulti-
mate result.

SIZE OF UNCLE SANS ARMY.
Military Secretary Ainsworth Issues
His First Annual Report.

The annual report of General F. C.
Ainsworth, the military secretary of
the army, the first issued from his of.
nee since its creation by congress ut
its last session, gives the total
strength Of the army at the close of
the last fiscal year as 1871 officers
and 6S,946 enlisted men.
The loss of officers from death. dis.
missal, retirement and other causes
was 155. The number of enlisted
men lost by death was $50.
OF the 1880 recruits enlisted during
the last fiscal year 3,G62 were foreign

Speaking of the militia, it is said
that very satisfactory progress has
been made toward bringing the organ
lied militia, respecting armament
equipment and discipline, up to the
standard of the regular army. The
total of 6,9G6 officers and 83,102 en-
listed men of the militia organizations
were present at the inspections.
Referring to the act OF congress
providing for sosteF 6f officers and
enlisted meh 81 the Union and Con-
fedefate armies, the report says the
responses of the governors addressed
inviting their cooperation have been
such as to assure the department
that they fully realize the importance
of cooperating heartily with the de.
partment in it's efforts to give to the
Confederate soldier the place that is
due him in the proposed compilation

Post Election roub'e in West
Virginia Grows Acute.
TROOPS ARE CALLED FOR
Governor, However, Suggests First the
Forming Of Large Posse-Sher-
If is Unable to Control
Situation.

A special from Charleston, W. Va.,
says: AS the result Of the killing OF
Constable Walter JACKSON in Mont
gomery by Policeman Elliott on We'd
nesday, and the subsequent capture of
the town by the four brothers of Jack
son at the head of about forty OF their
friends, a reign Of terror exists there.
The mayor, being helpless, appealed
TO Sheriff Daniels. When Sheriff
Daniels and John Rolf were killed by
Ed Jackson, the saloons were at once
closed and Governor White was asked
to send troops. The governor replied
that he would hold troops in readiness,
but advised forming large posse.
If the posse should meet with Sc
rious resistance, troops will be sent to
their relief. The Jackson followers
escaped to mountain stronghouds with
which they are familiar. Ernest and
Bob Jackson were arrested and jailed
in Charleston.
A posse headed By Marshal Harrison
3. Ash, of Thurmond, is securing the
mountains near Montgomery. Two
bloodhoUnds arrived from Dayton, o.
They were placed on the trail Friday
morning.
The officials in Montgomery fear fur
ther trouble, as sentiment against the
slayer of Daniels is very strong. Be-
fore the murder of Daniels the senti-
ment was with the Jacksons against
Policeman Elliott. The latter is in
the custody Of Chief Hundley.
A. relative of Jackson appeared at
the hotel and attempted to reach the
room Of the policeman. He was pre-.
vented by the attaches.
Reports from the posse are that Ed
jackson was chased into a cave Friday
night when it was decided to wait for
daylight for his capture. Although the
place was surrounded during the night,
Jackson escaped.
Meantime the friends of Jackson are
reported to be openly organizing
around Montgomery and swearing
vengeance if Jackson is lynched or
killed without being given a trial.
The excitement for miles around
Montgomery is intense because Of the
trouble. Deputies are being sworn in
from adjacent counties rapidly and
fastened to the posse to prevent lynch
ing or any violence if Jackson is ia
ken alive and also to prevent any at
tempt of Jackson's friends to rescue
the prisoner.
Those who terrorized the hamlet of
Montgomery with the Jackson brothers
are being feared again, while many
citizens are away with the posse. A
reward of $4,000 has been offered
for Jackson dead or alive.

HAY REMAINS IN CABINET.
President Roosevelt Makes Positive
Statement to that Effect.

A Washington dispatch says: Pres
ident Roosevelt made the announce
ment that John Hay would continue
as secretary of state during the four
years beginning March next.
"You may positively state" were his
words, that Mr.. Hay will continue as
secretary of state up to the 4th OF
March 1909"
The president was asked regarding
other possible cabinet changes, but in
Dictated that there was nothing to be
said at present. His announcement re
garding Secretary Hay was made to a
number of newspaper correspondents.
Mr.. Hays retention of the state de-
partment portfolio fixes the most i'm
portant place in the new cabinet, and
is the first and only step so far taken
in that direction.

WINNIE OUT ON BOND.
One of Alleged Atlanta Counterfeitcrs
Released from Jail.

Released from Jail.
William L. Wynn, who has been held
in the Atlanta jail for several weeks.
charged with counterfeiting and con-
spiracy against the government in
connection with the big counterfeiting
scheme recently unearthed in Allan
ia, was Friday morning released from
custody on n $1,000 bond signed by
AIonzo Richardson.
When first arrested N st. Louis by
the United States authorities, the bond
of Wynn was assessed at $4,000. Upon
the request of his attorneys, United
States Attorney f. A. Angler agreed
to the reduction Of the bond to $1,000.
The release of Wynn at this time
constitutes an interesting development
in the proceedings against the alleged
counterfeiters, especially when it is
remembered that there will likely be
no more criminal proceedings during
this term of court and his case cannot
come up for hearing until next
spring.

Japan Approaches russia
But Gets a Turn-DoWn.
PATH OPEN TO POWERS
While Nicholas Refuses to Treat With
Mikado, He is Not Averse to
Friendly Intervention of Dis
interested Governments.

An Associated Press dispatch from
London says: Japan unoficially has
made representations to Russia look
ing to peace. This action has resulted
in failure and such representations
even privately, are rot likely to be re-
peated by Japan.
Although the suggestion Of a pacific
settlement was made unofhcially, It
actually had behind it all the weight
of an offer by the Japanese govern
ment. It was made direct to Russia.
No power acted as an intermediary
The proposition was put forward
tentatively and unof1cially 80 that the
japanese government would be In
position to deny any report that IL
was suing for peace. The failure OF
these direct negotiations, however, re-
suited in bringing Intervention WITHIN
a measurable distance.
Foreign Secretary Lansdowne's plea
for arbitration Wednesday evening at
a banquet has brought out a pointed
suggestion to the United States ana
France that the time is approaching
when the powers must take some &C
ton. 1t can be definitely stated that
Lord Lansdowne made his speech with
full knowledge that Japan will not
resent a proposition looking to peace
from the three powers (the United
States. France and Great Britain)
There is a definite impression i'll
London that the initiative viii come
from President Roosevelt though the
action would be joint 1t is noted
that Lord Lansdowne spoke so openly
only because he had good reason to
believe that Mr.. Roosevelt, II elected

of peace.
Lord Lansdowne's remarks are held
bv those in his confidence to mean
that whatever the United States may
do in the matter Great Britain Will CO.
operate even in the event OF france
not participating. 1t is known, how
ever. that Ambassador Cambon,
Franche's representative, who con
tinues his work assiduously to bring
about some arrangement, hopes Tor
Joint action by the three powers.
In an interview regarding the fore
going. Baron Hayashi, the Japanese
minister at London, said
81 should not be surprised to see the
three powers named, or two OF them
take action suggested. Exactly upon
what basis Of settlement peace could
be secured it is at present impossible
to see The prospects for the success
Of friendly Intervention have vastly
increased. Since the commencement
of the war the two nations now re-
spect each other to degree never
