REPUBLICANS HOPE
T'ey See in Democratic Split
Chance TO Win Senator.

Washington. May g Republicans
who are hoping TO control the Senate
after March next were greatly en-
couraged to-day over the primaries IN
Maryland, where Representative David
J. Lewis, father Of the parcel post
was nominated by the Democrats for
the Senate over Blair Lee, running Tor
denomination. Joseph !. France, the
Republican nominee. will. It is believed,
have an excellent chance for election
in & normally Democratic state because
Of peculiar local conditions.
There was bitter Democratic lac
tional fight especially in baltimore
City, where Mayor Preston and John j.
Mshon, Democratic boss, fought Tor
Blair Lee against The" Jelly, a political
leader. who has split with the Preston
Mahon machine. Senator Lees friends
have shown in past elections strong
proclivity for scratching the Senator
successful rivals.
Five years ago Governor Goldsbor-
ouch, the second Republican Governor
since the Civil War, was elected over
Arthur p. German, jr., who had beaten
Lee in primary. Although Sena-
tor. Lee ran for the Gubernatorial
nomination last fall, and was defeated
by Harrington. Harrington was electei
by a majority under 5000, due to Lee
cutting.
Lewis. therefore. is regarded as in
great danger in Baltimore and the cen
trail counties. In Baltimore his ad-

SAYS CENTRAL TRACK
PLAN DEFRAUDS CITY
R. p. Bolton Denounces Valua-
tons of Real Estate Exchanged.

The valuations Of real estate to be
mutually exchanged by the city and
the New York Central Railroad in the
proposed West Side track improve
ment scheme were denounced yester-
day at n Board OF Estimate hearing by
Reginald Pelham Bolton, as the great
est cheat he had ever seen.
He said he thought this inequality
was due to the city's inability to make
the railroad do what II should do.
Controller Prendergast said this asserr-
ton had no basis in fact. Mr.. Bottoms
main argument dealt with the pro
posed bridge over the Harlem Ship
Canal
He argued for tunnel under the
canal so as 70 preclude both interior
ence with canal traffic and also with
the operation Of the railroad by the
cloCging Of the canal. making II I'M
possible 10 close the draw. In answer
TO the argument advanced by Borough
President Marks, that the tunnel would
cost si2000,OO0, Mr.. Bolton replied
that the rise in railroad stocks would

ALDERMEN TO MARCH
FOR PREPAREDNESS
President Dowling's Suggestion
as to Costume Adopted.

The Aldermen blithely voted yester-
day 20 march in body in the prepared
mes parade. Not in hack nor a bus,
but in a body. Somebody has got to
hold up the dignity Of the city, and
what better holders-up than aldermen
So they were deciding when the unex-
pected happened-a thought struck
President Bowling.
President Dowling's thought was that
dignity was usually upheld in silk
hat. And then it occurred to him that
some of the aldermen didn't have silk
hats. whereupon, rHsing TO the true
heights OF a statesman, he slipped the
tips Of his fingers between the first and
second buttons of his coat and said
with a honeyed smile, Lets all wear
derby hats and black coats"
This was adopted by unanimous con-
sent. without rollcall. 20 save those VINO
have silk hats but dare not let their
constituents know it from declaring
themselves, and also 10 save those
whose celebrates expect their alder
men 70 have silk hats from being
caught without them.

MUSIC UNION HITS PARADE
City Departments Must Show why
Bands Should March.


Repeating their effort of last year,
the Musicians Union yesterday OBJ
tanned an order from Supreme Court
Justice Delehanty against Mayor
Mitchell, Police Commissioner Woods,
Fire Commissioner Adamson and Street
Cleaning Commissioner Fetherston to
show cause why the bands Of the Pc
lice. Fire and Street Cleaning depart
ments should not be prohibited from
playing in the police parade next Sat
urday.
T. Channon Press. counsel for the
union. explained that the members OF
the union made the application as tax
payers, being the owners of their club
house, in East Eighty-sixth Street. He
urged that the department bands are
made up Of men being paid by city
funds for the performance of duty that
does not include musical work.
The eleventh hour move was defeat
ed last year, it being held that city
employees were privileged to form mu-
steal clubs. The contention at that
time was that the department bands
were depriving union musicians OF
