Maryland Must Await
Official Count
DEMOCRATS TAKE HOPE
Returns Indicate They -Will
Get Seven Electors.
REPUBLICANS SURE OF -ONE
Hundreds of Ballots Have Been Held
Up by Baltimore Supervisors on '
the Ground That They Were
MIsmarked.
BALTIMORE, Nov. IL That an official
count of the ballots cast for the Presi
dential Electors at last Tuesday's election
in Maryland will be required before defi
nite knowledge of the result "can be as
sured was demonstrated tonight by "tho
semiofficial count in Baltimore and in 30 of
the 23 counties of the north of the state.
The unofficial returns received thus far
Indicate that seven Democratic electors
and one Republican elector were chosen.
The Congressional situation remains un
changed, three Democratic and three Re
publican Congressmen having been
elected.
The State Board of Canvassers will
make the official announcement of the
vote. This board must meet and complete
its labors within 30 days after the election.
It Is explained by the election supervisors
and the political leaders that the mis
marking of ballots caused the discrepancy
between the vote for the "National and the
Congressional- candidates. In this connec
tion charges of fraud arc made by the
leaders of both parties, and it will be
necssary to await the official count to
decide the vote.
Of the Presidential Electors it is safe to
eay that by the count C. J. Bonaparte,
Republican of Baltimore, was elected, and
the remaining seven Maryland members

of"about 400 by the
rA, - JDemoerats. ,t . . .
The vote for the candidates on the So
cialist, Prohibition arid "Union Labor tick
ets has not yot been canvassed. Both
Democratic and Republican leaders say
that frauds and irregularities were used
in several precincts, and hundreds of bal
lots have been held up by the supervis
ors in Baltimore and in at least three
counties. It will therefore require the
decision of the Stato Board of Canvassers
to determine the actual result

"While the returns on the vote for state

REIGN OF TERROR TO END
Horsethleves Have Long Laid Tribute
on Ranges in Guise of Stockmen
Victims Afraid to Complain,
Fearing Worse Treatment.
LONG CREEK, Or., Nov. 11. (Special.)
Intense excitement prevails in the Long
Creek country tonight over the forma
tion of a Deputy Sheriffs' posse to round
up and capture tho gang of horsethleves
whose depredations have become so wide
spread and bold as to make the situa
tion on the ranges of Northern Grant in
tolerable.
Citizens are Joining the posse in such
numbers as to make ultimate capture of
the marauders almost certain. Only three
specific warrants have been Issued and
the names In these cases are withheld
at the request of posse leaders, who do
not wish to make public the Identity of
the men they are pursuing until the ar
rests are made.
The present uprising In Northern Grant
against the semlorganlzed gang of rust
lers, from whom no man's horses have
been safe. Is the climax of years of pa
tient endurance. Individual arrests have
been made from time to time by the
Sheriffs of Grant and Umatilla Counties,
but the band as a whole has never been
broken up. Occasional recruits from
trusted sources have kept the outlaw
ranks from depletion.
"We'll chase this gang till h 1 freezes
over. If wo don't catch "ea," tersely re
marked, one of the officers .'today, and the
same note of determination is echoed by
every stockman rallying, to the hunt.
It Is the peculiar system of this par
tially .qrganlzed gang which has enabled
the members to operate successfully for
many years. They are not a spectacular
band of horsemen, who sweep into a dis
trict and out again, taking with them 100
or 150 head. - They are residents of North
ern Grant itself or of contiguous territory.
and rarely take more than two or three
animals at the time.
The principal rustlers in the section
pass as . semn-espectaoio stockmen.
They may lo suspected by their neigh
bors, but having reputations of being men
who will .not stand much "fooling." these
suspicions aro hardly ever put in words.
Frequently they are not even whispered
between neighbor and neighbor. A man
does not always know foe from friend in
Northern Grant.
Bolder and more active operations than
even the harassing thefts of the past
three years have been In progress since
Spring, and this thoroughly earnest man
hunt, to which the patient stockmen
have at last been stirred, promises to
break up or actually wipe out one of the
most annoying bands of bad men that
ever tormented the interior.

SUSPICIOUS OF BRAZIL.
Argentine PrBW"Ur'gesr5JLOO0t00zfin
the -Creation of a NavyJ"
BUENOS AYRES. Nov. 11. In view of
the project of Brazil to raise" a loan of $50.
000.000 to increase her fleet, Argentine
newspapers are urging a rearrangement
of treaties .with Chile In order to enable
this government to expend $15,000,000 in
the creation of an Argentine navy, al
leging that Brazil is ambitious of secur
ing supremacy among the Eouth American
states.
The proposal of a BrazillanX loan, it 13
stated, has already been arranged and Is
merely awaiting the sanction of the Sen
ate. In well-informed quarters here It is
believed that the action of Brazil is due
solely to a desire adequately to strengthen
her coast defenses, owing to fears of fu
ture European aggression In southern ter
ritories. There is a strong sentiment ad
verse to the rearrangement of treaties
with Chile, or to the committal of tho
country to heavy expense for National
defenses.

BELLIGERENTS MAY OBJECT.
London Times Says Such Action
Would Not Be Surprising.
SPECIAL. CABLE.
LONDON, Nov. 12. The Times says this
morning, editorially, in discussing the pro-'
posed second Hague conference!
"We freely admit as an abstract ques
tion that there is no reason why the ex
istence of hostilities In one quarter of the
globe should militate against the work of
the powers In the cause of peace. Rather,
perhaps, we might expect that it would
give them additional stimulus,, but at the
same time it would not be surprising if
objection should be taken by one or the
other of the belligerents to the assem
blage of such a conference while the war
is still going, on.
"The position of neutrals and the vari
ous Intricate questions arising out of a
state of war at sea will evidently be
among the chief subjects discussed at the,
new conference. Russia, for example,
might not improperly decline to submit to
the conference a class of questions which
affect her so directly and which. If laid
before the "conference, have practically
the results of submitting before the con
ference her attitude during the war to the
Jurisdiction of the assembled powers. It
Is clear that the usefulness of the confer
ence will be very much Impaired if any jof.
the great powers should either abstain
from taking part, or should join with un
willing hearts."
But the Times says some practical solu
tion of this matter-Ill probably be found
as the matter takes shape.
France Approves Peace Conference.
PARI3, Nov IL The American proposi

ditional significance. France's response
has not been madet but the officials say
the general principle of the meeting Is ac
ceptable, although it will take sorae time
to consktef' what questions shall be
brought up. Foreign Minister Delcass'e's
conference with Ambassador Porter
showed that the Minister was most sym
pathetic upon the- proposition which he
considered to be In the line of France's
policy of establishing understandings and
making arbitration treaties.
Mexico Much Gratified.
MEpaCO CITY, Nov. IL Much gratifi

public because the United States and
Mexico are prepared to negotiate an ar

The cordial reception tendered to Vlee-Presldent-Elect

construction of a new masonry drydock
at the Puget Sound Navy-Yard of suffl

and large enough to simultaneously ac
commodate two moderate-sized vessels,

such as boilers, guns, turrets and new
buildings, as follows: Foundry, blacksmith
shop, sawmill, pattern, block and cooper
shop, office- building, hardwood lumber
shed and dry kiln.
Although recognizing the desirability of
having some of the Government yards
equipped for building naval vessels of the
largest size, Constructor Capps says
'The repairing and overhauling- of
the fleet must at all times remain the
important wprk of navy-yards, as in
time of war their resources will be
taxed to the utmost in performing
such work.
The Navy, he says, Is Increasing so
rapidly that ample work, will be pro
vided for the navy-yards by "repairs
and refits alone." Of the work on- the
battleship Connecticut, building: at the
rew York shipyard, the' chief construe
tor says that despite every effort to
reduce the cost of this, the nrst battle
Vshlp to be constructed in a navy-yardj
to the most economical basis, "it can
hardly be hoped that the work will be
done as cheaply as when performed in
private shipbuilding yards, whose rates
of pay for nine hours' work, in many
cases, is less. than those being' paid for
eight hours work at the navy-yard In
!ew York."
Attention is called to the urgent
necessity for adequate dockinsr faclll
ties for vessels of the fleet and for the
building of additional piers and sen
eral improvement of the berthing' facil
ities at the several navy-yards. Adml
ral Capps earnestly recommends that
the department permit the detail pf
three ofneers or the construction corps
as assistants to the bureau of construe
tlon and repair. Many Improvements
In navy-yards are recommended, but
the estimated cost of this work is not
included in the -portion of the report

Leads to a Reign of Terror.
CHARLESTON, W. Va., Nov. IL As
the result of the killing of Constable
Walter Jackson: in Montgomery by Po-
gent capture of the town by the
four brothers of Jackson at the head of
about 40 of their friends, a reign of ter
ror exists there. The Mayor, being help
less, appealed to- Sheriff Daniels yester
day, when Sheriff Daniels and John Rolf
were killed by Ed Jackson. The saloons
were at once closed and Governor White
was asked to send troops.
The Governor replied he would hold the
troops in readiness, but advised form
ing a large posse. If the posse should
meet with serious resistance, troops wilL
be sent to their relief. The Jackson fol
lowers escaped to mountain strongholds,
with which they are familiar.
Ernest and Bob Jackson were arrested
and brought to this city by Deputy JSher
IfC Davis and others. They are In jail
here. A posse, headed by Marshal Harri
son B. Ash, of Thurmond, is scouring the
mountains near Montgomery. Two blood
hounds have arrived from Dayton, O.
They were placed on the trail today. The
officials In Montgomery fear further
trouble, as sentiment against the slayer
of Daniels is very strong.
Reports from, the posse today are that
Ed Jackson was chased into a cave last
night, when it was decided to wait for
daylight for his capture. Although the
place was surrounded, during- the night
Jackson escaped. The posse has been in
creased to 360. Meantime friends, of Jack
son are Te ported to be openly 4rganlslna;
around Montgomery and swearing ven
geance if Jackson Is lynched or killed
without being given a trial.
