VIENNA. Jan. 25.-A telegram from

While the Servian government declines
to consider this movement seriously, in

of the matter that Is causing the sincere
well-wishers OF the party throughout
the State the most serious concern.
Hope of continued success by the
Democrats is known to depend, first.
upon an absolutely united party in the

Rayner represents no faction or organi-

from the first dependent solely upon the
desire OF the people to see him elected.

Senator German, it is pointed out that

positively that the figure is not far from

Colonel Wetmore's idea is that the

by Thomas Jefferson and that it should
not be dependent upon mere temporary
contributions, but should be endowed

Democratic Chieftain' s
Dilemma Is Due to
Treachery.
FIGHT IN LEGISLATURE
Rayner Is the People s Choice
to Succeed Louis E.
McComaS.

BALTIMORE, Jan. 25.-Senator Cor
mans political supremacy in Maryland
is in danger. Repeated conferences at
his home in washington with city and
State leaders show that he is sorely
troubled.
Up Against 1t.
Senator German finds the present prob
lens confronting him:
First. his candidate. Carter. the prod
uct OF the Senator's rank treachery to
Smith. can under no circumstances win.
Second. to let Smith gain the victory
by giving him the sixteen or seventeen
votes he thinks he controls would be to
acknowledge that there has arisen in
Maryland a political power too strong
even for German to control.
Third. the ability and mental attain
ments Of Isidor Rayner would over
shadow the senior Senator in the upper
house of Congress. and hence his jeal-
Gus hatred Of the candidate.
Senator German Treed.
The dilemma in which German finds
himself is largely Of his own making. It
is not denied that when he induced Gov
ernor Smith to spend 100000 on an extra
session of the Legislature to pass a new
election law that would let German re-
turn TO the Senate ne promised to give
Kim Senator McComas' toga.
Then, on the eve Of the first ballot
in the Legislature. when he sought to
give Smith the double cross and push In
Carter-a scheme il is known that mad
been Matching for mOnths-Gorman
found he couldn't deliver the goods, and
that Smith, cleverest Of politicians, was
resourceful enough to block the game
at the very start.
Every day for a week Smith has con-
tinued TO make it apparent that Cor
mans prestige as a political car is
ended in Maryland. Frantic orders tele-
phOned 10 Smith adherents from Wash
ington by Senator German were laugh
ed at. threats were ridiculed, and every
ballot for Senator kept on emphasizing
the loss of Germans grip. Smith had
held thirty votes. Rayner forty. and
Carter only eleven throughout the week
The question which German must de-
eide is whether or not to throw his
strength TO Smith. and IL is not certain
that this would elect the ex-governor.
and have a colleague in the Senate with
a grievance. To Smiths highest num-
Der OF votes (thirty) German could prob
ably throw the eleven cast for Carter
and the four for Miles But that would
still leave Smith one shy Of the neces-
ssry forty-six, and It is not certain ne
can hold All OF the thirty.
