MARYLANDERS ARE
AGAINST SUFFRAGE.
Delegation to Convention Also Unani-
mously Opposed to Prohibition
Plank.

tBy w. o. Anderson, Jr.. in the Balti-
more Starr
St. Louis, Mo-, June 1.-THE most
disappointed woman in st. Louis TODAY
is Mrs. Robert B. Moss, of Annapolis.
Md. Ignorant of the fact that the Mary
land Democratic delegation had al
ready voted unanimously against
woman suffrage plank. Mrs Moss ar
rived at the Jefferson this morning as
the early risers were coming down to
breakfast. Her quest was for Govern
or Harrington and Senator John Wal
ter Smith the latter the chairman of
the Maryland delegation.
Mrs. Moss disappointment was keen
when she was told by one of the dis
trlct delegates that her errand was
hopeless and that Maryland was al
ready on record, with Governor Har-
rington its selection for the resolution
committee, instructed to fight to the
last against universal suffrage. AS
bitterly opposed to prohibition plank
as woman suffrage, the Marylanders
viii caucus again and instruct the
Governor to oppose dry plank if one
should be seriously contemplated by
any of the national Democrats of in
huence. The delegation failed TO take
any action on the wet and dry fight at
last nights caucus, only because they
believed there was little danger of pro-
hibition being pushed in convention.
Mrs. Moss was the only Maryland
woman on hand this morning TO partic-
fpate in the "sufs' silent parade. This
parade "a unique one in every respect
was made up of a solid column o.
Votes for Women" enthusiasts which
stretched from the Jefferson to the
Coliseum None of the paraders
marched, but stood silent in their
places for two hours.
Poor Maryland" said Mrs.Moss just
before she took her position in the
parade. 1T looks like our State. first
to ask for woman suffrage, will be the
last to grant votes to women"
Mrs. Moss added that despite her
Democratic family connections she
stands ready to vote for three or four
years at least with the political party
that enfranchises her. The Maryland
woman said she was entirely satisfied
with the suffrage plank adopted by the
Republicans in Chicago last week, in
which the G.. o. p pledged itself to let
the several states decide the suffrage
question for themselves.
I'VE hoped however, said Mrs. Moss.
that the Democrats would go little
bit further

power and sent his car bounding along
the rails as that car had never before
bounded. AS 1t careened northward,
block by block, high-power motor
car crowded with armed men drew
slowly down on it.
The trolley car Numbered on, with
its wheel-flanges screaming against
the switch curve as it swung down
the approach to Viaduct bridge. It
pounded on as the protesting trucks,
shifting malletlike on their overtaxed
metal guides, refused to conform to so
fiimsy guardian. 1t pounded across
the footpath of the high-arched bridge,
and leaped like hunter through the
wrought-iron guard rails along the
bridge side, catapulted out into space,
and turned one complete somersault
as it fell into the valley below. There
it crashed head-down on a macadam
road as hard as stone, crushing I'M
der its weight of splintering wood and
twisted steel the body of the one
armed man who had ventured to tam.

unable to control.

he seated himself before the rosewood

And Legar?" asked the anxious
eyed girl on the other side of the desk.
"Legar, young lady, was stone dead
before we could get him out from I'M

found enough data on his body to
gather in every crook that hung out
in Owls Nest, besides Red Egan's

add, convinced us that this young man
who was fool enough to parade around
in a yellow mask wasn't as closely con-
nected with that series Of crimes as
we once supposed. And / call this

police may well be proud of!
But the most remarkable haul OF
all, / think, is this portion of a map

up in Legar's clothing. Now. can you
explain to me the precise meaning of
these hieroglyphics, and the reason
why Legar should have been so anxious
to obtain possession of what take to
