Baird Lee Elected to
u. S. Senate in Maryland
by Plurality of 10000

BALTIMORE. Nov. 5.--Owing to
the long and cumbersome ballot, re-
turns from yesterdays election in
Maryland were still incomplete this
morning. The indications. however.
were that Blair Lee, Democrat. was
elected to the United States Senate
by plurality of about 10000 and
that the Democratic State ticket
would do nearly as we'll.
The Democrats claim majority of
three-flfths in each house of the
Legislature. This would be sufficient
to override any vetoes of the Repub-
lican governor Goldsborol,gh. The
Progressive vote fell off heavily, In
Baltimore IL was less than seven per
cent. of the vote cast for Roosevelt
last year
