GOVERNOR TO FILL
LAIRD'S PLACE SOON
Believed That He Will Appoint sue
ce>sor Wednesday.

Governor Harrington, who spent
the Weekend in Cambridge, left yes
terday for Baltimore, TO attend Il
meeting today of the Executive Com
mittee of the State Council OF De
Iense.
1t is probable that the Governor
will remain IN Baltimore "Wednesday
and it is possible that he may take
up The appointment Of member OF
the Public Service Commission for
the remainder Of the siX-year term OF
Philip ID, Laird.
The work of the Commission Is
now at StandstilI because of the
opinion OF General Counsel William
/ Cabcl Bruce to the effect that its
acts are not binding unless cases are
passed upon by the full board. This
does not mean that all three Com
missioners must concur, but that all
| three shall hear case or pass an
sit.
One of the matters pressing for 4
, hearing is the skip-stop plan OF op-
Grafton of the United Railways,
against which there have been man!
I protests Recently the Commission
! passed an order requiring the Com
pany TO answer the complaints, ana
the Company replied by defending
the PLAN which is in operation on
only few lines. 1t IS the intention
| of the Commission to set date for
a public hearing as soon as it has a
/ full membership.
There is still lack OF informa-
ton as to whom the Governor may
name. but there is believed to be a
possibility that Chairman John NJ.
Reifsnider may be transferred from
the State Accident Board, although
the Governor is known to be 10th 10

DRAFT STILL PUZZLE

No One Certain How Many VIII %"
Examined to Fill Mary lands Quo
ta-iSut Chances Are That ilrst
300 Drawn Will see Military Sci
vice Abroad.

What are the Baltim0redn rs 'han
ces for service IN France II his draft
number was within The first 300?
These are days OF speculation Tor
the Young men who are liable, ana
there are different figures set forth
TO show just how much chance 4 naA
has for service or exemption, rs hla
case may be.
Adjt. General Henry VI. " lieiG,
who is at the head of the draft OPP
erations in the State Of Maryland. Is
not ready 10 venture an opinion. lie
said yesterday the time mad arrived
for facts and facts alone. He was
not ready to say how many might
be exempted before the full quota
for the State had Deen filled up.
The State quota for the national
army has been fixed at 1896. accord
ing TO one set of figures. and these
figures are believed to be the same
that will be contained in Il prociama-
ton by Governor Harrington this
week. This leaves a requirement OF
1852 for the city OF Baltimore.
When some of the drafted men
were shown these figures they sat
down and reasoned that the men
drawn within the first 300 numbers
would give liable force of 700 men
for Baltimore city. They reasoned
this way on a basis OF , + districts foT
the city and 300 men from each OF
these districts.
But what will be the average ol
exemptions" they asked None OF
the authorities dareS hit upon a fig
ure. They dare not venture to Sd!
how many might be freed from ser
vice because of physical disability
industrial occupation or for other
reasons.
Some of the hopeful, however have
struck upon a ''fifty-ffty" basis. Il
their guessing comes anywhere with
