BALTIMORE, Md. November S-The
early morning estimates giving Colds
borough. republican. for governor 5000
plurality were reduced somewhat by
the later returns. With Baltimore city
practically complete and based on
partial returns from the counties the
indications this afternoon were that
Goldsborough would have about 1000
plurality.
1t also appeared practically certain
that Edgar Allan Poe, democrat, for
states attorney general. and Emerson
c. Harrington, democrat, for con-
troller have been elected. Judge
Henry Stockbridge. republican. was re-
elected to the state court Of appeals.
All three Of the democratic candidates
for judges of the supreme bench of Bal
timore were elected.
The house of delegates is in doubt The
senate, from it's hold-ovcr membership,
will be democratic.
When Informed that his election was
certain Mr.. Goldsborough made the fol-
lowing statement over the lonE-distance
telephone from his home in Cambridge:
D II am happy and deeply grateful to tht
people of Baltimore and Of the state o.
Maryland for their decision. i was con
fident of the results, and the returns have
borne out what I expected.
I'm the rush of receiving returns it II
impossible to say more at present. but
shall issue a statement later in the day.
A plurality of 1864 votes for Colds
borough over Arthur p. German is shown
by the returns from 307 city precincts.
AS some of the missing precincts are nor
maIly heavily republican. the candidate
of that party will probably be returned a
winner in Baltimore city with about c.OoC
to spare.
William F. Broening has defeated the
democratic candidate for states attorney.
Robert II. Carr Broening cut heavily
precincts of the city. and his plurality
for 81 precincts is 3,96S. with a strong
likelihood that this lead will be increased
to about 4, 100 by the precincts yet to be
heard from.
Weis Elected Sheriff.
Theodore P. Weis has been elected
sheriff by a safe plurality, defeating
both J. Albert Hughes, the regular demo-
crat, and Thomas f. McNulty, the inde-
pendent democrat. Candidate McNuity
made a splendid run, and in 81 pre-
cincts has outstripped the regular DEM
ocratic candidate. Not only did he split
the regular democratic vote. but he re-
ceived hundreds Of republican votes.
The result of the vote on sheriff gives
Weis plurality over Hughes Of 6.553 in
the 317 Precincts and plurality over
MnN Ify nf 4
over Hughes In the same number of pre-
cincts Is 2,242.
The full city returns in the fight for
controller and attorney general have not
been tabuiated, but John II. Cunningham
and Morris A. Soper, the respective re-
publican candidates for the two offices,
are leading their democratic opponents,
emerson Z. Harrington and Edgar Allan
roe, by good majOriiies, though behind
the figures polled Oy MIR. Goidsborougn.
The figures from sO5 city precincts
also indicate that w. 0. Atwood, the re-
publican candidate for city surveyor, is
elected by a small majority.
Judgeship Fight Close.
The fight for the judgeships of the or
phans, court is very close. Judge Dunn,
democrat, is leading, with his running
mate, Gather, second, and A. C. Denn-
ford, republican, third. The republican
candidate for clerk of the city court is
apparently defeated. In some cases the
legislative candidates in the first, second
and third districts are in The lead at the
present time. Ali Of the republican cam
dIuateS in the fourth district seem to be
safe by good maJorities. In the first dis
trlct tie house delegation is spit, but the
democrats claim the election of Senator
Charles p. Coady, who was leading with
1,2O majority.
<x.,.. de- nj hall
W. Mines Maioy, the democratic ;sena-
torial candidates in the second and third
districts, respectively. are claiming vic
tory for their men, but the republicans
have not yet conceded these two places
Many of the republican candidates for
the house in the two districts will win

was reported, would have been q strong
candidate If elected for the speaker Of
the house.
Judge stockbridge. the. republican can
didate for the court OF appeals. over

ponent, many democrats having openly
rallied to the formers standard.
The democrats are claiming victory for
their three candidates for Judges OF the
supreme bench. ard the latest figures in
dicate that at least two Will pull through
j. Henry Baker is leading the republican
judiciary candidates.
Amendments Are Defeated.
Along with the Digges disfranchisiug
amendment the two amendments provid-
ing for greater representation for Balti-
more city in the legislature went down to
defeat. The defeat OF these last two
measures is blamed partially on the pres
ence OF the Disges amendment on the
ticket. In their desire to kill the latter
measure many persons are believed to
