Baltimore Recount Shows
Evidence of Conspiracy.
Special to The Washington Herald.

Special to The Washington Herald.
Baltimore, Md, Sept 3O-,In its recount
to-day of the primary ballots of the
Eighth precinct of the Eighteenth ward,
the grand jury found evidence which it
decided warranted the presentment of
the four judges and two clerks. and they
were accordingly presented. McNulty's
gain in this precinct for sheriff was
fifty votes.
After cleaning up the precincts called
for to-day, the jury adjourned until Mon
day morning. In its efforts to get the
men higher bp," the grand jury is doing
some special probing, and the result of
this is likely to be presentments on
charges of conspiracy. One reason for
wanting to open the spring primary and
general election ballot boxes is to show
that similar frauds were committed then.
This would, it is intimated, be taken as
cumulative evidence of a conspiracy, and
would help in convicting the men
higher up"
McNulty's actual gain in the recount
of votes by the grand jury has now
reached 495 votes, and subtracting these
from Hughes official majority of SI7,
McNulty has only 800 votes yet to gain
in order to displace ]. Albert Hughes

GOLDEN-HAIRED LASSIE
FIGHTS BRAVELY FOR LIFE
Little AnnabeLa Brown, Afflicted with Dread Hip
tuberculosis Lies on Hospital Cot Where
for Two Years She Had Courage
ouSIy Endured Suffering

One Of the most pitiful cases Of hip
tuberculosis ever brought to the atten-
tion of medical men of Washington is
that of nine-year-old Annabelle Brown,
who has lain on a cot at Children's Hos
pital for two years. unable to move her
body more than few inches.
Surrounding the pretty golden-haired
lassie are several other children, all Of
whom are afflicted with the great white
plague in one form or another. Day in
and day out. little Annabelle must lie
there, with the cries and pleadings Of
other girls and boys ringing in her ears.
She cannot comfort them-she is slight
ly older than the majority of the pa
tients-because her own sufferings are
almost more than she can bear.
The nurses say Annabelle has never
once complained since she was first
brought to the institution from her coun-
try home in Virginia. Her case is a puz-
zling one to the physicians. Some weeks
