BALTIMORE, November 13.-Re-
vised returns from all parts Of the
state just completed give William
Cabell Bruce. democratic candidate
for senator, 1926 votes. and Joseph
Irwin France, republican, 1882.
Bruce's plurality, therefore, is 20,374.
Senator France carried only six
counties in the state, these being his
home county of Cecil, Calvert.
Charles, Garrett, st. Marys and Allie
gany. With the exception of Cecil.
which generally returns a democratic
majority. all these are republican, but
every one returned a majority much
less than in any previous year.
Garrett. which generally can be re-
lied upon to give the republican tick
France less than 100 majority. while
Calvert came through with a bare
800. Charles, which usually gives
from 1900 to 1900. returned about
500. while Allegany, which is repub-
half this number.
Republican Counties Upset.
On the other hand, rock-ribbed re-
publican counties like Frederick, Wash
ington. Somerset. Carroll and Dorches-
ter swung into the democratic column.
Had Montgomery treated Mish as we'll
as it did Bruce, Zihlman would have
been beaten in the sixth district. Zihl-
mans dry record is given credit for
carrying the county.
An analysis Of the vote in Baltimore
city makes plain the detection Of men,
bers of both parties and proves con-
clusively that thousands of voters. dis
regarding the political complexion of the
candidates, voted as they pleased, and
here is the evidence.
Listed Democrats Missing.
While there were registered as affilia ted
democrats 1O5.690. there were polled for
candidates of that party only 7s.412
votes, and while there are enrolled
71.745 affiliated republicans. as many as
70.477 votes were cast for the candidates
of that party. The democrats cannot
account for 27,29S of their voters.
whereas the republicans ran behind only
1895
That the latter polled nearly the full
strength of their affiliated vote is wholly
improbable. hence they must have had
the assistance of democrats, and as the
democrats gained heavily in republican
/ wards it is plain that they drew many
Of their voters from that party.
