BOTH SIDES CLAIM STATE.
Count Of Maryland Counties Not Ye
Tabulated

BALTIMORE, November 12.-Though the
counting of the ballots in Baltimore has
been completed, the board of election super
visors is still engaged in tabulating the vote
and will not finish this work until late to-
day or perhaps Monday. The count in the
twenty-three counties has been completed
except in two, but it is expected that these
will be sent in today. In one of these there
is a charge Of fraud in one precinct and a
difference Of opinion as to whether the
ballots In that county should be counted is
the cause of delay.
The indications still point with seeming
certainty to the election of seven demo-
cratic and one republican elector, but even
this result will probably not be officially
confirmed until the state board of can
vassers meets and examines the work of
the county boards.
Both sides still claim the state, and Re-
publican State Chairman Hanna and Col
lector Stone, republican leader, have an
nounced that if the electoral vote of Mary
land is not declared for Roosevelt they will
contest the result in the courts.

and caps in the dust. The Italians then
started counter, demonstration on the
