MISSOURI FOR TAFT
BRYAN GETS SEVEN OF MARY
LANDS EIGHT VOTES.
rAFT's ELECTORAL VOTE sls
In Missouri Hadley Has the Govern.
orship and Fox May Sill
Be Senator.

New York, Nov. 6.--The member
ship Of the electoral college which
will choose the next PIT sident of
the United States remained in dis
pute when the official counters In
Maryland abandoned their task last
night. According to the best ir.orma.
ton obtainable. the proportional
members of the republican and demo-
cratic electors will be determined by
a division of Maryland's eight votes.
Half of the city of Baltimore and two
OF the twenty-three counties outside
of that city are still to be counted
but there is strong indication that
the states vote will be split. In any
event. the margin of victory will be
so small that the state was claimed
last night by the leaders of both
parties. Through the splitting of a
states electoral vote Is unusual, it
will be recalled that In 1904 Mary
land elected one republican and seven
democratic electors. ..
Missouri appears to be safely for
Taft. 10 whom the latest returns gave
a plurality Of 4,OG7 with the prospects
OF more when the few final districts
are counted. Ccnceding Missouri
to Taft and leaving Maryland to d.
split between him and Bryan, the
figures show 319 republican electors
and 1856 democratic.
The plurality Of Herbert Hadley,
republican candidate for governor,
has reached 17,343. Whether he has
carried with him the rest of the re-
publican state ticket has not yet
been determined. He has run rar
ahead of his associates, however, in
most of the ia counties of the state,
but the republican state committee
insists that the minor state candi.
dates will receive rluraliy no less
than that given to Taft. The demo-
Gratis seem to be assured of control
of the general assembly by six votes
On joint ballot.
In the house the republicans have
seventy-three members and the demo-
Gratis sixty-four. The senate, how
ever. is democratic by the ratio of %

counties show surprising gains fer

The Carroll Vote Is pit, 772 Against

Total Vote In Iowa.

Des Moines, Nov. 6-These figures
based on semi-official returns from
eightyeight counties Of the ninety
nine in the state and gathered from
county auditors, furnish the first ac-
tual total vote published in Iowa. All
previous statements of pluralities
have been based merely on estimates
of the vote, but the table published
herewith give the exact vote in each
of the counties listed. 1t Is impos-
sible to secure the eleven missing
counties last night, because the
county auditors had not received the
complete returns from the precincts
in these counties. In some cases the
complete vote will not be available
until the official canvass of the re.
turns next week.
While there are eleven counties
missing, they will not change the net
result except to increase somewhat
the lead Of both Taft and Cal.ull
over their opponents. They may add
5000 to the pluralities of each, bring
ing the final Taft plurality to about
$4,000 or 10000 and the Carroll plu-
rality to something over $4,000.
4 he state of Davenport whose
assumed autonomy was ended by the
law enforcement policies of Attor-
ney General Byers, played even with
Mr.. Byers BY cutting his vote. But
he did not suffer alone for the entire
state ticket was cut from Carroll
down. State Superintendent Riggs
suffered even a little worse than At
torney General Byers, for he reviewed
five less votes, due to controversies
probably, with Davenport school au-
thorities on questions Of policy.
Byers' vote was cut approximately g.
600 from the Taft vote. Taft receiv.
ed 6,2SS and had a plurality OF GIG
over Bryan; Byers received 4,279 and
his opponent carried the county by
979. Carroll received 5,179 votes and
White 6,S05, White receiving the larg.
est vote cast for any one on the
state ticket. Riggs received 4,274 in
Scott and Miller 5,214. =.
But no serious cutting Of the state
ticket was reported outside of Scott
county. Byers and others ran behind
in some of the other river counties,
but it Is believed that Byers, at least,
will more than make it up in other
sections of the state.
