a shade stronger than at close
of last week. There was a heavy
run of Rangers at the Northern

Maryland.

Baltimore, Md, Nov 5,-With the official vote of one-thrd of Baltimore city and 21 out of 23 counties com pote and estimating the missing dis tricts on the basis of tho unofficial returns Taft had an apparent plur- ality tonight of 176 The indica- tidns were that seven Bryan and one Taft electors had been chosen.
 According to the figures Bryan re- ceived 1l5,7s2 votes and Taft 115,9Ss.
 This result. If borne out by the completed official count, Is precise duplication of what occurred in tho presidential election of 1904, and the reason Is that. apparently, more re- publicens and democrats marked their ballots for the first named nlector only This is considered to ho due chiefly to the ballot law which prohibits the party emblem. The illterate voter frequently marks his ballot 90 that Il counts only for the first elector on the ticket and as the republican illiterate vote, because of the large number oi negroes voting with that party, i' greater than tho democratic iliteratc vote, there ia always a considerable discrepancy between the vote received by the first republican elector and tho others.

SO Bridgeport Auto Man Is Caught
 Without Tag.

Difference In local custom is what Harry D. Gates, an automobile agent of Bridgeport. planes for his arrest in this city yesterday afternoon for vio- lation of the automobile law. Heenan and Murphy the special auto chasers of the city department had their hooks out for Gates about all day and finally captured him as it was growing dusk in Davenport avenue The technical offense of which Gates Is guilty, ac- cordlng to the police, Is operating an automobile without an operators tag attached thereto Gates explained that he was a part owner of the machine and that in Bridgeport 1t was not re- duired to have an operators tag on unless the operator was other than the owner of the car Gates had his operating license in his pocket but no tag on He was released on bail of s2OO furnished by N. E. Whitfield of this city.
 An amusing incident occurred when Gates was released He asked If he might have permission to drive his car to get tag from some auto shop. He wanted to know what would hap pen if he got caught again while on his way to get tag and the sergeant in charge laconlcally stated That will simply be another charge against you T Gates decided to get his tag before making the car go again,

IlIItcrate Negroes Method of Marking Vote Responsible for Unique Sit uation, Duplicating That

The membership of the electoral college which will choose the next president of. the United States vet re- mained uncertain when the official canvassers in Maryland abandoned their task last night. According to the best information ohtainable the proportlonate numbers of republican and democratic electors will be deter mined by a division of Maryland s eight votes Half of the city of Balti- more and two of the twenty-three counties outi1e of the metropolis are still to be counted, but there Is a strong indication that the states vote will be split. In any event the mar gin of victory will be so small that the state was claimed last night by the leaders of both parties
 Though the splitting of the states electoral vote Is unusual 1t will he re. called that in 1904 Maryland elected one republican and seven democratic electors
 Missouri appears to he satelS fol Taft, to whom tAe latest returns givC a plurality of 300 with tho prospect! that the few districts to be heard iron will double or triple fhese figures.
 Conceding Missouri to Taft anC leaving Maryland to be split betweeI him and Bryan, the figures show 3l' republican electors assured and l5' democratic.
 The latest congressional returns in dicate that the next congress will h composed of 2l6 republicans and l1 democrats a majority for the repub licans of 4l.
 The returns for the socialist an, prohibition parties are still far iron complete, but indicate that the hope of the socialists have not been real ized, and lthat the prohihitionists | certain sections where gains were cx pected by them have been disappoint ed, The figures for the independenc party vote arc also insufficient to giv an accurate idea of what the party ac compllshcd,

Fitzpatrick and Naedcle, Regular Ends, Badly Injured in Hard Practice Yesterday
 Afternoon.
WHEATON ALSO LAID OUT
Drop Kickcr's Condition Similar to That of Last NCar--A Thousand Students See Accidents to
 Star Footballlsts.

In the last hard practice before the terday three varsity men were injured so badly that 1t is doubtful If any of them will be able to play again this year. Two of them are out for sure, Henry M Wheaton and John R, Kill patrick, and 1t is doubtful if Theodore c. Naedee of Hartford will be seen at end again this season.
 Naedelc suffered a spralned ankle soon after the scrlmmage began and was replaced by Logan. Fitzpatrick. who was in the lineup for the first time in two weeks had his knee bad ly wrenched Wheaton was playing left halfback on the varsity and when the men picked up off him after a good gain he was unable to move All three mon were taken to the ln- frmary.
 Wheaton has had very hard luck playing. He is one of Yale's best backs and Is the best drop kicker nere in years. Last fall he was injured at practice at 'mid-season and as a result was not able to get in any game be- fore the one against Harvard, This fall he has been playing In the best of shape and his goal kicking ability was relied upon for scores In the three big games of the year. Last night how ever, it was stated that ne will not be able to play in any game, and Yale's only chance for field goal will come from Fred Daily
 Since the injury to Captain Burch, Naedele has been the regular right end and with Fitzpatrick at left Yale had the equal of which would be hard to find. Both were good in taking the forward pass and Fitzpatrick was es- pecially good at recovering the on- side kick. Fitzpatrick was hurt in the Washington and Jefferson game and the coaches were pleased that he had recovered SO soon.
 With Fitzpatrick and Naedele out and only bare possibility that Cap. tain Burch will be able to play in tho big games. the ends will be Tony Hanes and Walter Logan. Hainei played on tho freshman team last yea and Logan two years ago. Logan hat good chance for the varsity las
