MARYLANDERS FEAR
SPLIT IN DEMOCRACY
Clash Between German and
Rayner May Reopen Old
Party Feud.

BALTIMORE, Md, Aug. 12.-The tilt
between young Arthur P. German, State
senator, and the veteran United States
Senator Isador RayneT, when the former
brought the latter's plans for an in
dorsement by the Democratic State con-
vention to a deal halt, is the one topic
of discussion among Maryland Demo-
Gratis today.
Many say It has a deeper Significance
than a mere tilt. and may mark the
reincarnation OF the old spirit in the
Democracy Of Maryland that passed
away when Senator Arthur Pue Cor
man died.
Young German mustered unexpected
strength. and chose a crucial moment
to show his hand. With little expec-
tation OF opposition, Rayner asked the
convention for an Endorsement Of his
candidacy for reelection, as well as for
his record. German rallied his forces in
sufficient number to prevent the in
dorsement asked for, and even declared
that II il were granted he would an
nounce himself a candidate for cleo
ton German did not object to the in
dorsement Of Rayner's record which
was passed without opposition.
Whether young G-ornan took up the
,.udgels against Rayner out Of the mem
DRY to the old enmity between his father
and the Senator or whether the young
man has ambitions Of his own IS what
Marylanders are trying to discover to-
day.
That all is not harmonious in the
party again was shown when Senator
smith and Governor CrOtheTs lined up
on opposite sides Of a heated discus
sion regarding the representation to be
allowed Baltimore city. Baltimore was
allowed q very small increase and this
is likely TO be the occasion for further

blood had been poisoned. and that pneu-

Heroic treatment improved the train
er's condition. so that it was possible
yesterday to draw blood from his veins
for an analysis to determine the proper
ton Of poison. DR., Smith at once in
jected an antitoxin and continued treat

after he was attacked by the tiger

his bed, although suffering from MS in-

Gently came to this country from Ger
