The three were driving hurriedly
to the Baltimore and Ohio station
and were noticed only by a few
of the waiting passengers as they
were hurried through the station
and then out the side gate to a
special car which was in waiting.
But all the way from the White
House to the depot the president’s
carriage, was followed by a coupe,
the driver of wllich kept his
horse’s nose almost touching the
rear of the first mentioned vehicle.
The president scarcely, had time
to alight when two men jumped in
quickly from their coupe and hur-
riedly glanced up and down the
street and then in the direction of
the station. One of the strangers
nodded lathe occupants of the
carriage and President Harrison
and his companions got out and
followed him through the station.
The other stranger followed close-
ly in the rear and imitated his
comrade by scanning closely the
face of every person he passed on
the way to the train. The two

to take some action to prevent
such a calamity as had been hint-
ed at Accordingly after a con-
ference among the close friends of
the president it was decided to
summon Russell Harrison and
make him acquainted with the
grave apprehensions of his friends.
On the arrival of the president’s
son a consultation was held, the
situation thoroughly discussed and
young Harrison made known to
his father the apprehensions of
his friends. At first the president
refused to entertain the proposi-
tion to engage the services of the
detectives, holding that ft would
be doing the soldier element of the
country an irreparable injustice to
cast such a reproach upon them.
But after the gravity of the sit-
uation was pointed out to him and
the possibility of some half de-
mented individual, excited over
the Tannes case, creating a scene,
he agreed that his friends might
take such action as they deemed
best; but cautioned them to avoid
publicity in their movements:

had crossed the threshold at his
cottage at the mountain resort.
For several days the intimate
friends of Mr. Harrison have been
much agitated on account of the
bad feeling manifested in certain
quarters over the Tanner case.
Several ugly anonymous letters
were found in the president’s mail,
and threatening remarks of des-
perate and injudicious friends of
ex-Commissioner Tanner have
reached their ears.

The suicide of a Baltimore man

the statement that he was a woman
hater. For years bad his aversion
to women been so great that he
would step from the sidewalk to
avoid passing one too closely and
he would not sit at the table with
one. That the existence of this
man must have been wretched be-
Kond expression no one can doubt
and perhaps the strangest part of
his horrible romance is that he did
notend his wretched life long ago.

gation in the 8th ward, and the
candidates were S. H. Hausen,
republican, and J. S. Garvin, Pro-
hibition resulting in Hausen’s elec-
tion. The interest centered in the
trial of the new system, which was
declared a success by both voters
and judges. The polls opened at
6 o’clock and closed at 5. The
vote was counted in every pre-
cinct by 7:30. There were no
ticket peddlers at the polls for the
reason that their vocation is ended.
The voter receives his ticket from
the j udges. The law provides that
there’can be but twice as many
tickets as there are voters regis-
tered. These tickets are issued
to the judges by the city clerk,
and they are held accountable for
them.
The voters enter the little en-
closure where the judges stood,
and was given a small red ballot
by the judges about two by three
inches on which were printed the
name of the candidates as abqve
mentioned, with the name of the
political party after each name.
There was space between the
names for and name the voter
might choose to write. With his
ballot in hand the voter stepped
to a row of curtained stalls and
passing inside was not visible.
While there he marked “X” in the
square oppositehis choice, fold-
ing the ticket so that t he - initials
of the judge, marked in U square
on the back of the ticket were
seen. When coming out of the stall
he presented his vote to another
judge who deposited it in a, glass
side ballot box. There was no
way of telling how the man voted
unless he chose to tell. The bal-
lots were deposited about one min-
ute, and as there must be stalls for
every fifty voters, it is thought the
voting will be more rapid than for-
merly. Each candidate is requir-
ed to pay the city clerk 85 for
ticket expenses. The stalls are
made so they can be folded to-
gether and easily taken down and
put up. T hey are made of light
pine boards with a small shelf, on
