Extra Session of Maryland
Legislature Likely.

Owing to the recent fraud perpetrated
at the recent Primary election in Balti-
more city and several of the counties in
the State, the democratic party leaders,
especially Senator German, whose cleo
ton at the primary is rather uncertain
owing to dishonest counting of ballots,
are urging Gov. Crothers TO call an extra
session of the Legislature for the pur-
pose of recounting the votes cast. The
Wednesday morning Sun says:
"Appreciating the public demand for
complete recount Of the votes cas-. in
Baltimore in the recent prim airy and re-
alizing the practical impossibility of their
party beginning real campaign until
the charges of fraud connected with the
count of the votes are thoroughly sifted,
Is leading Democrats Of the State held
long conference with Gov. Crothers last
night at Hotel Rennert, and after a dis
cussion of the present situation unani-
mously passed resolution requesting
the Governor to convene the Legislature
in extra session SO that 1t can speedily
recount the votes and the exact results
be definitely known.
Scarcely ever has a Governor been SO
strongly appealed to and never have de-
mands for an extra session been so con-
vincingly presented. The Governor from
the first exposures of fraud has fully ap-
preciated the conditions both in the city
and counties, but the arguments made
to him last night made deep impress
sion.
'It was pointed out to him that the
good name of Baltimore and the entire
State should not be dragged in the mire
by charges of fraud and that the sooner
these can be wiped out the better it will
be for the city and State.
GAS is well known, the Governor has
always been opposed to extra sessions,
but he asserted last night that he real
ICES that his party is facing crisis and
that there is demand by the people of
the State for an expeditions recount of
the vote. He asked for several hours to
consider the request made in the resolu-
tons, but it is believed that today he will
issue proclamation calling for an extra
session and that the Legislature will pro-
baby reconvene in Annapolis at noon
next Monday.
Senator German and his running
mates, Messrs. Poe and Harrington, and
Senator Lee, who opposed Senator Cor
man in the primary, made strong pleas
to the Governor for the session."
