BALTIMORE, Md. May 15.-Maryland
will be represented in the republican ma
tional convention by eight supporters of
Col. Roosevelt, six who favored President
Taft in the primaries. one Hughes advo-
cate and one who is neutral. These dele
gates were elected yesterday afternoon
by the state convention. which met at
Albaughs Theater and which on the
preferential vote stood sc for Roosevelt
and 63 for Taft, yet in which the Presi-
vote of IS to 81.
While the leaders on both sides ex-
pressed themselves as pleased with the
result, the Roosevelt contingent frankly
acknowledged that they owe the conces-
sions made them to the governor, who
yielded to their demands to ward off
criticism of unfairness and to prevent a
fight in the convention.
This same policy prevailed in the franz
ing of the resolutions, and here again
the Roosevelt people were given the right
of way. President Tafts administration
was heartily Endorsed in a few lines and
Col. Roosevelt then given the credit of
having accomplished achievements while

Leaders Control Situation.
II was expected that because of a
threatened row in the convention there
would be large gallery attendance, but
the crowd was no greater than usual
Those who came were enthusiastically in
favor of their respective candidates, and
when their names were mentioned there
was cheering and applause. Sentiment
was very nearly evenly divided. The
leaders on both sides had the situation
well in hand and nothing occurred to
mar the harmony.
There was a noticeable absence of lead
ers who usually attend great state gath
erings. The governor was not present.
neither was Mr.. Jackson or Collector
Stone.
The addresses of DR.. A. r. l.. Dohme,
the temporary chairman. and that of ex-
Senator Henry NJ. Mccullough, the per-
manent chairman. were in excellent taste
and calculated to avert trouble. Both
refrained from mentioning the name of
either candidate. though during Senator
McCullough's address an opening was Of
fered when he said the Chicago conven-
ton would name the next President of
the United States. whereupon an enthu-
siast shouted Roosevelt and another
shouted Taft. A demonstration and a
counter demonstration followed. Senator
Mccullough added when quiet was re-
stored that either would suit him.

ing the names of the delegates and al
