GAINED 2 CONGRESSMEN
Maryland Democracy Returns In
Third And Sixth Districts
Prove Surprises For g.
@. p.
LEWIS WINS HANDILY
Republican DiSsensiOns In The Sixth
With Democrats Popularity Defeat
ed Waraer

While the Democrats were unable
to Overcome the large negro vote in
the black belt" counties of South
ern Maryland and join the other dis
tricts of the State by replacing Re
publican in the Fifth. there were
gains in other sections of the States
Congressional representation.
The Congressman elected are:
First District. Harry Coving-
ton, Democrat, reelected.
Second District. Fred Talbot,
Democrat, reelected.
Third District-George Konig,
Democrat, who succeeds John Kron-
miller, Republican.
Fourth District. Charles Linthi-
cum, Democrat.
Fifth District-Thomas Parran,
Republican, who succeeds Sydney f.
Mudd, Republican.
Sixth District-David J. Lewis,
Democrat, who succeeds George A.
Pearre, Republican.
The chief surprises are in the Third
and Sixth districts, particularly the
latter. The Third district embraces
the eastern half of Baltimore city
and has large foreign population.
John Kronmiller, Republican, carried
it two years ago by GOO. In yester-
days election in a total vote of 30,-
600 Kong, Democrat, leads by about
$50 to 200 1t may require the Off
cial canvass to determine the winner.
The tariff and high prices of food
were the strong pleas made by the
Democratic candidates in the two
city districts, the Third and the
Fourth. KONG made his campaign
solely on the food price issue and
thus obtained the votes of hundreds
of the Polish Jews and other foreign
ers in the district who last time
voted the Republican ticket.
In the Sixth district Republican
dissensions are responsible for the
defeat of Brainard H. Warner, Jr.,
the Republican candidate. 1t is
the first time the district has gone
Democratic since 1892.
Congressman Pearre. Republican,
could probably have been re-elec-
ted. but he declined to be a candi-
date because of the differences in
the party. The vote is apparently
close, and in this, as in the Third
and Fourth. it may require the Off
cial canvass to decide, although the
returns indicate the election of
Lewis by about 500 or more p lu-
rality.

DEATH OF Mr.. GROUSE
State Insurance Commissioner Passes
Away After Long Illness

AWAY httSi LUX iiiHNoS
The announcement of the death of
State Insurance Commissioner Benz. F.
Grouse. who passed away at his home
in Westminster yesterday afternoon,
arouses sincere regret.
Mr. Grouse has been in i'll health for
over a year, and his death was not
unexpected He was fifty-siX years
old and a graduate of Western Mary
land College. Class of 1873. At one
time he was a member of the State
Legislature. When DR.. Herring was
elected Comptroller, he appointed
Mr.. Grouse chief clerk, and while fill
ing this position he was appointed
State Insurance Commissioner. He
was twice married, and is survived
by his second wife.
In 1892 Mr.. Grouse created a sensa-
tion in a Democratic county conven-
tion in Baltimore city by bitterly de-
nouncing German and Gormanism,
which. he declared, denied the rights
Of the people . A about that time
he became an acknowledged leader
Of the democratic party in the county
and continued in that relation to the
end Of his life. He dominated every
convention Of his party and dictated
It's actions.

ANNE ARUNDEL FOR RAY
With One Precinct Missing And
Two Thrown Out Because
OF Pudding Ballots"
He Gets 2S Major
ity in County.
PARRAN CARRIES DISTRICT
Wi Republican Majority Conceded In
Calvert. Ray Misses Seat In Congress
By About $50

With one precinct-the second of
the First district-to be heard from
definitely and with two precincts hav-
ing no returns" because of too many
ballots being found in the box when
opened, Anne Arundel county gave
Ray a majority of twelve over Par
ran in yesterdays election.
This is based on the unofficial re-
port that the poll in the second pre-
cinct of the First district showed a
majority of sixteen for Parran. The
total vote in Anne Arundel, less this
unofficial majority for Parran in the
second of the First, and the vote in
the second precinct of the Third dis
trict and the Third Ward of Annapo-
lis, where no count was made, is
Ray, 2,213; Parran, 2,185.
Just what will be done by the
Board of Supervisors of Elections, sit
ting as a Board of Canvassers when
the returns are made to them tomor-
row, is not known. They will have
to rule on the action of the judges in
the Third ward of Annapolis and the
second precinct of the Third district
in refusing to count the votes when
it was found that there were more
ballots in the box than there were
voters on the clerks poll books.
In view of the fact that the other
counties of the Fifth district will. in
all probability, show so safe major
ity for Parran as to prevent the ad-
mission or rejection of the two pre-
incts in question, having any re al
effect on the result, it is likely that
the Supervisors will accept the mo
returns" report.
The voting in Anne Arundel was
very apathetic Out of over 5000
voters, only about 5000 went to the
polls. The work of Dir. George Wells
and his friends, however, was a clear
refutation of the iatimation that they
did not want to see Ray elected.
Their efforts in his behalf were sim
cere and everything possible was
done to get out the Democratic vote.
One big surprise was the fact that
both precincts of the Eighth district,
where Mr.. Isaac S. Nutwel was con-
Quoting the tight for Ray, should have
given a majority for Parran. Indi-
cations from the rest of the district,
based on incomplete returns, indicate
that Parran has been elected by
slightly over $50 majority. This is
based on the following figures:

ARMY.NAVY CONTEST
Bigger Demand Than Ever For Tickets
70 The Great Game In Philadelphia

There was a stranger in Philadel-
phia yesterday who casually produced
d golden-backed note in the Belle

for three good seats for the Army

One Of the dispensers of tickets
gently broke the news that the pro-
verbal hens teeth were as many as
the sands of the sea in comparis son
with seats for the big struggle sched-
ued for Franklin Field on Novem-
Der &c. There has been a greater
demand for the tickets this year than
ever before. The reason is hard to
define. But the fact remains that
only intimate friendship with some
one closely connected with The big

any desire to see the game.

JAP STUDENT SPEAKS
HObun YOkoyama Addresses Midship.
men

Hobun Yokoyama. student at the
Johns Hopkins University and a for
mer midshipman of the Japanese
Navy, made a notable address to
the brigade Of Midshfrmen Saturday
night, under the auspices of the
Academy Young Mems Christian AS
socistion.
Mr.. Yokoyama was warmly greet
ed and Ills address was compliment
ed with enthusiastic applause. He
was compelled to give up his naval
career on account Of his eyesight. A
particularly interesting portion of
the adress was an account of the rou-
tine carried out in training Japanese
midshipmen. 1t appears strikingly
like that in vogue at the Naval
Academy. though the hours of study,
drills, ETC., are fixed slightly earlier.
The influence of the many japanese
trained at the Naval Academy in the
past was seen clearly in the routine
of their naval training school. Mr..
Yokoyama said that of nearly 1000 ap
plicants but $50 passed the mental
and physical tests for entrance. and
that some of these did not succeed in
finishing the course leading to a
commission. A striking statement
was that of over one hurdred of the
five hundred midshipmen were mem
bers of the Christian Association.
He spoke of the patriotic pride
which animated Japanese youths to
reflect credit upon the service, and
the nation, and said that Christians
should bear themselves in like
manner to reflect credit upon their
faith.
Mr.. Yokoyama will speak tonight
at the College Avenue Baptist Church,

After a warm two week. contest
ending Saturday Miss Era Presson
carried off the $25 silver coffee set
in The CHRONICLES ,popular young
lady contest, and by herextra effort
in trying to capture the prize she
probably surprised herself and her
friends, but it shows how easy it is
when you finally make up your mind
to 90 after the votes. This shows
what little effort will do, and it
ought to be an inducement to some
others who are tagging in the con-
test. Remember, young ladies, it
is always NOW that the votes count
up fast. "There is no time like the
present time" Each week the val
lie of votes decreases materially.
Promises of help later may be all
right in some cases, but they are
not worth near as much in this case
as the money to turn in on the big

Senator Taylor Condemned.
County Unit Primary Plan
The Result of Such Plan Would Necessarily SrangIng
the Popular Will n Tennessee

Ifthere is any doubt in the mind
of the Democrats of this county as
to the opinion of Senator RobertL.
Taylor on the Patterson Primary
Plan, let us recall statement made
by the Senator two years ago. He
most emphatically condemned the
County Unit Primary Plan" as
undemocratic. The same feature
is put in the coming Patterson
primary of June 4. Senator Tay-
lor showed foresight at the time by
,makinga prediction which has been
fulfilled. In the primary and the
convention that followed Patterson
and his committee succeeded by
shameful methods in overthrowing
the power of the majority of the
Democracy, and enthroned the mi
nority, giving it the power which
belongs alone to the majority"
But let us review again the exact
words of Senator Taylor. In a
published interview, June 4, 1908,
he said:
"When the Democratic Execu-
tive Committee formulated and pro-
claimed the plan of the primary in
the present campaign l saw in that
plan the seeds Of revolution in par
ty management in the State. Isaw
in it the danger OF the final over
throw of the power of the majority
of the Democracy to decide who
should be the nominees of the par
ty and the consequent enthrone-
ment Of the minority, giving it the
power which belonged alone to the
majority. l respectfully and with
out passion expressed my opinion
that the result would recassarily
