Baltimore. NOV. S.-Returns for the
city and state are not complete but il
is apparent from the official reports SO
far received that the vote of Maryland
is very close and that the actual re-
suit may not be definitely known to-
night owing TO the slowness of re-
turns from remote districts in the
southern counties. In Baltimore the
indications are that there may not be
a difference of 100 votes. Incomplete
returns from the counties show uneX-
peeted Republican gains, particularly
ia the western counties.

HARD FOUGHT FINISH.

Buffalo, n. Y, July 16.-But two
races We're decided at the Central New
York circuit meeting at Tonawanda
yesterday. However, the racing was
good and all the finishes hard fought.
In the 2:17 trot, Thorn Boy sold at $40,
the field at $40. The gray trotter won
without any great trouble. Driver Pen
mock laid MIN up in the second neat

the heat and fined the driver $50.

$50, the field for SIS. Donna L. won

THE AMATEURS.
RoOters and Followers of the City
Amateur League Take Notice.

This is written to call attention to
the fact that the City Amateur league
is in pretty hard straits financially
The expenses of the league have been
very high this season and almost all of
the money paid out had to come out OF
the managers pockets. True. collec-
tions have been taken up ON the lots,
but very little was netted. Last Sun
day crowd of about 5000 people at
tended the games and a collection was
taken up. Only ST. was collected. lust
about enough to pay the expenses of
last Sundays games. The league man
ayers have paid out more than $20r
among themselves for the expenses of
the game, and if something isn't done
pretty soon and the patrons of the
game give some financial aid the games
are liable to be stopped because of the
lack of finances to run the games All
that is asked of the people who attend
the games is small contribution, no
matter how small it will be thankfully
received. One man gave cents last
Sunday. A little small, but If every
body contributed that small amount
the league would soon be on sound
financial footing. No doubt the patrons
of the game will acknowledge that they
witness good sport on the lots and will
confess that, they spend a pleasant
Sunday afternoon at Riverside park.
In the face of the above fact it is not
unreasonable to ask for little assist
ance from the people who are benefited
from the games.
Five or ten cents isn't much, and no
body would ever miss that small
amount. Let everybody try to help the
game along by contributing something
and they will still continue to see the
games at Riverside. The fellows who
play ball on Sunday pity for the love
of the sport and give some fine exhibit
tons of the national sport. But when
the players know that their efforts are
appreciated and the spectators are pay
ing a little to see them play, then the

Trade conditions were gradually be-
coming more normal after the concln-
sion. of political conventions when q
new disturbing factor appeared in the
strike Of packing house employees and
allied trades. This enhanced prices Of
meats and added many thousands to
the already large army of unemployed,
weakening the purchasing power Of
the people still further. Aside from this
unfavorable development, the news Of
the week contained much encourage
ment
Crop prospects improved, and the gem
eral level Of prices for farm products
promises a large return to agriculture
lists, which means better business for
all industries. Confidence grows with
the crops, retailers showing more dis
position to prepare for the future as
the season advances with no serious
setback to the farms.
Confidence is returning in the se-
curity market, the average price Of
sixty active railway shares showing an
advance over the level year ago FOR
the first time in 1904. Bank exchanges

from the French embassy that on the
occasion Of the French national fes-

upon him the dignity OF the grand

milton OF the services rendered during
the last six years by the American de-
partment of state toward the main
tenance Of the peace of the world.
The secretary OF state, who has hith-
erto declined all propositions OF this
nature, felt that he could not refuse SO
signal an honor from the great Euro
pean republic considering the motive
which prompted it. He thereupon sent
to the French embassy a note express
ing his grateful appreciation OF the
offer, which he accepted subject to the
approval of congress.
