MARYLAND.

Baltimore, Md, Nov. 2.-One of the closest races in the history of the state, with the decision still in doubt, took place in the gubernatcrial elec- ton today.
 The returns so far tabulated show large Republican gains and it is be- lieved the G. o. P. has carried the state, normally Democratic, for the second time, a Republican govern ment at present being in power.
 Allegheny county is known to have gone more than 2,000 Republican, and the entire G. o. P. county ticket is reported to have been elected.
 Democratic leaders declare results will narrow down in Baltimore city and the result here will determine whether Emerson c. Harrington, Democrat, or o. E. Weller, Repubh- can, will sit in the governors chair at Annapolis for the next four years.

PENNSYLVANIA.

Philadelphia, Pa., Nov. 2.-Woman suffrage has been defeated in Penn sylvania by more than 70,000, accord ing to indications tonight.
 Reform has been defeated in Phila- delphia. Thomas B. Smith, old line Republican, defeated George p. Porter, the reform candidate for mayor, by a plurality estimated at from o1,0oo to 100000.
 Porter was the present reform May or Blankenburg's director of public safety. Smith, former postmaster, and former public service commits sioner. is known as McNichol hench- man.
 It is believed at Republican head quarters that Smith has boiled nearly twice the vote of Porter. Bromley, Democrat was nowhere. Philadelphia also gave a majorit! of at least 50,000 against woman suf- frage. Out in the state the womer
 ran ahead in number of equities. The ballots cast today were ten fee square and had to be dropped into milk cans and other such receptacles the regular boxes being too small tc hold them. For this reason, returns are unusually late.
 Three constitutional amendments
 were voted upon, but there are no in dications yet of the result, although

ner, millionaire brewer, who died in 1906.

81, 000, 900, forming a part OF their fathers
estate, instead of waiting twenty years
more for the expiration set by their
father for the trust estate. A decree

siding in Equity Division l Of the Dis
trict Supreme Court, held that the pro-
vision Of the will creating the trust fund
and providing that the income only
should be distributed for thirty years after
the death of the testator violates the law
against perpetuities and is void.
Robert Portners will named the
American Security and Trust Company
as trustee and directed that one-half
the income from this trust fund should
be paid to his widow during her life
and the other half distributed among
the ten children. At her death the total
income was to be distributed among
the children. Mrs. Portner died in 1912,
and the children, being all of age. de-
sired to terminate the trust and dis
tribute the estate.
Suit was instituted by the heirs.
among whom is the wife of Represen-
tative Flood of Virginia. against the
trustee to have the court construe the
will of their father. The trustee sub
mitted the matter to the court for in
structione.
Attorneys Hoehling. Peelle G. Ogilby
represent the children and Attorneys
McKenney and Flannery appeared for
the trust company.
