republican legislature majority was
Increased, Tho progressiva vote was

In Massachusetts suffrago lost al
most two to one as It dtd In Now
York, while Pennsylvania went three
to one against It. New York's inew
constitution wns snowed under by
over 260,000 votes. Threo Now York

A democrat was elected governor u(
Maryland by slight plurality and In
Kentucky both sides claim tho vic

foi poor sorvlco or excesslvo rates.
Tho Commission states that It be
lieves the matter proporly comes un
der Its jurisdiction and has sorved
notlco of the complaint to tho com

that tho Company will ask the courts
