NORTH CAROLINA DRY
State Goes Dry by About 10000 Plurality.
Majority May Be Larger.

Raleigh. y. G.. May 26.-North
Carolina was carried for State pro-
hlbitlon today by a majority that is
estimated at from 10000 to $4,000
on reports and estimates received I'D
to midnight.
The prohibition ticket has carried
7S out Of the % counties by ma
loritics approximating $4,000. The
anti-prohibition ticket has 20 coun-
ties by majoritics approxinating
5000. This calculation is based on
some estimates and the prohibition
leaders say it is possible for the pro-
hlbition MA jority to reach $4,000. A
close estimate Of the vote would
give prohibition ajorlty of about
$4,000.
The election passed off very
quietly. no disturbances Of any mo-
mcnt being reported. The total vote
cast in the State was about 49,
600.

Chalrn,ar I'oydcn Of the anti-pro

at $50 o'clock tonight in reference
to todays election:
'Scattcring reports from IS coun-
ties shw tht the vote on prohibi-
ton will be very close, and until
the returns are in from all the
counties | do not conccdc that the
State has gone for prohibition. The
vote at this hour shows that Raj
clgh, Wilmington. Salisbury and
some other cities have voted in fa-
vor OF the retention Of the local
option system. Considering that the
State already was IS per cent. pro-
hibition the vote indicates that the
people are against the mixing of
religion with politics."

BRYAN HAS SMALL LEAD.
Maryland Now Appears to Have Gone
Democratic.

Baltimore, Nov. 6.-According to un
official returns received by the Baltt
more News from every county in the
state and from Baltimore city Mary
land is again in the Bryan column by
q very small plurality. The most
careful revision of the unoffi cial fig.
ures was made, with the aid of re-
ports from every county and the
wards of Baltimore city, and the re-
suit is to show that Bryan leads in
the vote by 210 votes.
The vote is so close, however, that
it is possible the complexion may
again be changed by the discovery OF
an ordinarily slight inaccuracy of a
ward or district.
1t seems certain that the electoral
vote of the state will be divided and
the probabilities are that Bryan, in
the opinion of close political observ-
ers, will get majority of the elec,
toral vote
