the course of his remarks he said that In

Special Correspondence of The Star
BALTIMORE, Md. June 10. 1905.
The leaders of both political parties hav-
ing agreed that the DISTINGUISHING amend
ment to the state constitution is to be the
paramount issue, a bitter and acrimonious
campaign may be expected this fall. The
republicans are most hopeful of defeating
the Poe plan. because on this one point the
party stands united to man; because the
state, is opposed to the measure, and be-
cause a large contingent of the democratic
party will vote against the amendment,
even while supporting the candidates on the
democratic ticket.
The most important development of the
week and one that caused much elation in
the republican ranks was the open deciar-
alton by Attorney General w. S. Bryan
that he was opposed to the Poe plan, and
would vote against the amendment at the
polls. The attorney general stands very
close to Gov. Warfeld, and his utterance
IS regarded having been made with
the approval of the states chief executive.
The republican leaders assert that Mr.
Bryan's utterance will have the effect of
bringing the administration wing of the
democracy into line against the amend
ment. and they point to the fact that the
governor had a strong enough following in
the state to force the bosses to give him the
Eubernatorial nomination two years ago
The Wartield following, they further claim
Eas not diminished, but on the contrary has
increased. and that today Gov WarfieId
could give Senator German the battle of
his life in contest for factionaI suprem-

Intercity Electric Line.

An ordinance was introduced in the city
council this week giving the Baltimore,
Washington and Annapolis electric railway
a franchise TO lay tracks to point In the
center of the city. This is the line which
Is to connect Washington and Baltimore
by trolley. President George T. Bishop of
the company stated to The Star cor
respondent today that If the right of way
Into Baltimore is secured early the system
from Washington to Baltimore will be
completed by September, 1906. Continuing
Mr.. Bishop said:
We figure that we will have I O0O 600
passengers a year to this city, and to do
this We propose to put the road in such
physical condition and fix such a fare be-
tween the cities as to attract this number
of persons The railway company which is
operated by the syndicate which | repre-
sent, has increased business 500 per cent
between Dallas and Fort Worth in Texas
IN three years. The line, as proposed ex-
tends from the Treasury Department in

Chairman Hanna's Views.

Chairman Hanna of the Republican state
central committee, In discussing the COM
ing campaign, said to The Star correspon-
dent today:
We have every reason to hope for the
defeat Of the Poe plan. as our party Is
united on this issue, while the democrats are
divided But republicans must be on the
alert until the polls close next November
The democratic leaders will make a des-
perate fight. and the holiness and daring
auoaclty OF these men is brought home to
the people by the proposed DISTINGUISHING
amendment.
For thirty years or more the great
struggle of the republican party in Mary
land has been to get and to keep honest
elections. We have always been willing to
stand or fall by the will of the people of
our state, when that will was honestly as
certained and declared. Cheating at cleo
lions has been the cardinal sin of the
democratic bosses for over a quarter of a
century. Reducing opposition by artful
and unjust legislation Is a product of the
fertile brain of the democratic party man
ayers of more recent origin. And the Poe
plan is the most monstrous conception to
defeat the will Of the people yet brought
to light"

COULD NOT PASS
TOWING HAWSER
CONSIDERABLE DELAY IN GET
TING THE LINE TO ARGYLL
TO BARKENTINE FULLERTON.

There was considerable delay this
morning in the S. S. Argyll getting
under way with the barkentine Fuller
ton in tow for Port Hartford. The
Argyll went out of the harbor first and
stood by, while the tug Fearless
brought the barkentine Fullerton out,
the idea being that the hawser was
to be passed to the Argyll. Captain
Olsen of the Fearless had told Captain
Munroe to move the steamer ahead
slowly but when the tug and barken-
tine came out, it was to find the steam
er standing practically still.
Then there was a lot of trouble get
ting the hawser passed. Finally the
Fearless gave the job up and towed the
barkentine to an anchor and left her.
The Argyll went to an anchor ahead of
the Fullerton and finally succeeded in
passing the hawser and getting under
way About liz days will be re-
quired in which to make the tow from
Honolulu. Both vessels are in bal
last.
