MARYLAND VOTE TO BE SPLIT.
Seven Bryan Electors and One for Taft
Believed tho Result.

Believed tho Result.
Baltimore, Nov. 6.-With the official
vote Of one-third of Baltimore City and
twenty-one out Of twenty-three coun-
ties complete, and estimating the miss
ing districts OIL the basis of the un-
official returns, Taft had an apparent
plurality last night Of 17S. The indi-
cations were, however, that one Taft
and seven Bryan electors had been
chosen. According to the figures, the
Bryan electors received 1852 votes,
and the highest Taft elector 115,95S.
This result, 1t borne out by the COM
pleted official count, is a precise dup
ncation Of what occurred in the pres
idential election Of 1904, and the rea-
SON is that apparently more republic
cans than democrats marked their bal
This is conslusred to be due chiefly to
the ballot law which prohibits the par
ty emblem. The illiterate voter fire.
quently marks his ballot so that it
counts only for the first elector on the
ticket, and as the republican illiterate
vote, because Of the large number of
negroes voting with that party, is
greater than the democrats illiterate
vote, there is always a considerable
discrepancy between the vote received
by the first republican elect~ and the
others.
Altho returns had been received late
today from the two missing counties
and the county of Baltimore City was
almost complete. the result of the elec-
ton on president is still in doubt From
the latest figures it is certain Bryan
will have six electors and maybe sew
en-. Taft is sure of one.

Des Moines, Nov. chairman
FRANKIE, of the republican state COM
mittee, this morning stated he would
not attempt to secure complete returns
from the state and get an accurate
statement of the final results. All his
figures, which cover about seventy
five of the counties, show that the Taft
majority is not far from $500, and
that Carroll has about $4,000. Beyond
that he has been unable to compile flg-
ures, as the returns have been unsat-
isfactory.
cunnmins May Have $1,000.
The friends of Governor Cummins
also ceased to figure longer on the re-
suit, but find that in all counties heard
froll he made gains and that the final
figures will. show not far from $4,000
majority. Governor Cummins has been
busy with state business and is paying
no further attention to the matter.
The latest figures on the legislature
show eighty republicans III tHe House
and thirty-four in the senate. There is
still some doubt about the results in
Clinton, Dubuque, Ida and Buchanan
counties. In Clinton there has been
some confusion and the primary poll
books and returns have been lost for
part of the county.
Sixth District Is Close.
The late news from the Sixth district
is that it is very close between Ken
dali and Hamilton for congress. Both
sides are claiming it and probably an
official count will be required.
Hint Of Rebellion.
It was rumored here this morning
that Richards Palmer, Johnston and
ouint were preparing to lead a move
ment to repudiate the action of the re-
publicans in choosing Cummins for
senator, but they have as yet made no
open move in that direction.

SOUTH DAKOTA KEEPS DIVORCE
Proposed Change Of Law Believed to
Have Been Defeated.

Proposed Change Of Law Believed to
Have Been Defeated.
Sioux Falls, Nov 6-Opponents of
the proposed new divorce law, raising
the period from six months to a year
and requiring that hearings be held at
regular terms of court instead of ok
chamber" last night confidently
claimed the proposed measure was de-
feated. Those favoring the law dis
pute this.
If defeated, it will be due to several
causes. chief of which is the fact that
the proposed divorce law was greatly
handicapped by being placed upon
separate ballot containing three other
proposed laws. 1t is said that many
voters, after glancing part of the way
down, by mistake turned their atten-
ton TO the bottom of the divorce law
and placed "X" before the word "No"
under the divorce law, thinking they
were voting mo- on county option.
Leading politicians who are in close
touch with conditions thruout the state
and who have been absolutely neutral in
the divorce, law fight express the opin-
ion that the proposed divorce law has
been defeated.
