[Special to the Kkbbkbec Joc/bbal.] Lvkbjcobe Pali., Not. 3.—There is this morning, ac arrested Thursday sight by Farmington officers for finding stolen goods in bis possession near Bretton The Kenssbe* Jocbbal correspondent last evening interviewed Mr. Elliot and learned the follow ng. Upon Mr. Elliot's arrival at Saw ins house be,was met at the door by a party who at once entered into conversa tion with him. As the interview between these parties ia somewhat lengthy we re frain from giving the same. Suffice it to say ths’ after a few moments' conversation Mr. Elliot settled m his mind that the party before him was none other than Joe Dustin, of Lewiston, wanted for the West Farmington burglary. Elliot at once conceived the idea that if he could but leav e the place without giving Dustm any suspicion of what his quickly formed plans were he might be successful in causing the immediate arrest of Dustin. This be suc ceeded in doing. Driving slowly for the first half mile he hastened up his horse and drove rapidly as possible to Deputy Sheriff Ira Monroe s residence in Liv, rmore. That offu t-T being at imme Elliot made known as quickly as possible what he had learned. Monroe consented at-onc. One of the men recognized the voice as belonging to Dana Miller, arotber kiln-tender who resides at the South End. Blood was pouring from two gashes in his throat, and a razor and case found lying alongside showed the men at once that a suicide bad beeh at tempted. Miller was removed to his borne on Suffolk street and assistance immediate ly -ummoned. He had been drinking quite heavily and left the house about nine o'clock not knowing what he was about. He made bis way to the boat house where he was found, and with the rs or cut bis throat on each side. When the blood te gs n to flow he partially regained his senses and at once began to cry for help. The wounds on examination, prove to be not necessarily fatal, though quite serious. Miller is a young man. unmarried, about 28 years of age, the son of Parker Miller. Calliopaan Pubic Heating at Kent’s Hill. [Specirl to the Kbxxzbec Jourkal.] Kent’s Hill. Nov. 3.—The first public meeting of the term was held on Friday; evening, being in charge of the Calliopean Society. The essay was finely written. The discussion of the question :—“Resol ▼ed—that all bus.ness should be in the hands of the National Government," was listened to with much interest. Edmund D Searie# gave a most excel- j lent oration, entitled “The Crimson Blot.” j The editors of the paper were A. 1.. Jor-| dan. and F. W. Xorcroaa. A fine closing address was given by Percy A. R. Dow. The music gave moat excellent satisfaction. This week the Literati Society will hold their public meeting. The pulpit here was supplied Sunday by Rev. C. E. Bisbee of W'inthrop. Next Sunday it is expected Rev. F. C. Rogers of Bangor, will preach here and at the corner. Dr. Allen is able to walk out a little, but bis grand-daughter is still critically tick. Walter Folsom has moved to the corner, and both himself and me*: excellent wife will be greatly miased. kqoMt Ow Bsmiiis of Mrs. Flynn Kilted at Winslow. [Special to the Kexxerbc Joirxal.] Waterv:u.e, Nov. 3. Immediately after the accident at Winslow on Sothlay, which resulted in the death of Mrs. Thomas Flynn, a brief report of which was pub lished in yesterday's Jot real, Coroner W. H. Edwards of this city was sent for and immediately proceeded to the scene and summoned a jury, as follows, for the par pose of holding an inquest: J. W. Bassett. C. C. Cornish, Geo. A. Warren, P. F. Lar kin, J. M. Taylor and J. P. Pollard. After viewing the body as it lay in the depot, an adjournment was made to L. D. Carver’s office, at 10 o'clock. Monday. At the time appointed. Ellery L. Jones of Corinna and Elmer L. Jones of Winslow testified to the finding of the body of Mr*. Flynn by the side of the railroad track, the position in which it lay and the wounds which they noticed at the time of the acci dent. They were prevented from seeing the woman when she was struck by some box cars which were on a siding between them and the moving train. They assisted in putting the body into one of the cars, after which the train backed up to the station. Nellie Larkin testified to seeing Mrs. Flynn on the track, and calling out to her to get out or the way of the approaching tram: she did not heed the warning, but looked at the train until it struck her. She was outside the rail, but quite near it. Dr. F. C. Thayer testified that he was taken over to Winslow by Mr. Alden, sup posing at the time that the woman was alive. He found her dead, and made only a cursory examination. Her arm was found to be fractured and there was a wound upon the side of her head which might have caused death. At this point the inves tigation was adjourned till 2 P. M., when the conductor and engineer of the train would be present to give their testimony on the matter. At 2 P. M., Charles M. Benjamin, con ductor, of Portland, on train 128, testified that when the train was between the station and Dustin's Crossing, the engineer whistled for brakes and that tin- train was stopped as soon as possible, win n one of the train men rime back and said that a woman had been struck. She was taken into the car and carried back to the station, where she was left. The train wa« running from 12 to 14 miles j>er hour. The engineer. John A. St. Clair, said he saw the woman walking between the main track and siding, that she crossed the track amt continued on just outside the rail, and the fireman shouted to her. and just as the engine came up wher> she was, she turned closer to the track, and was struck. No steam was be ing worked, and the train which contained twenty-six cars, was moving twelve to fif teen miles an hour. Every pos-ible effort was made to stop it. The woman appeared to be engaged with, something which she) carried iu her hands. The following ver-1 diet was rendered by the jury That Honora Flygn of Vassaiboro, came j to her death on the 2d day of November at i about 11 A. M. o.i the track of the Maine i Central K. R. Co. at a point thereon mid- i way between the station in Winslow and Dustin crossing so called, by being struck by the engine attached to train 128 moving at the rate of about about t miles an hour on its way to Portland, while she was moving iu the opposite direction, on or very near the track. We further tind that the employes of said company on said train did all in their power to avoid acci dent and that no blame is to be attached to them for the accident. Mrs. Flynn was 8" years of age and has been of unsound mind for several years. At the time of her death slie was evidently telling her beads which the conductor af terwards picked up near the track. Meeting of Kennebec Central Railroad Stockholders. [Special to the Kinverei Jot knal.j Gauimxeu, Nov. :*>.—The stockholders of j the Keonebec Central Railroad Company j field their adjourned animal meeting in the j dike of the company this afternoon at 4 clock.

Good Hswa from Lowlaton Lewistox, Nov. 3.—The Lewiston Jour nal gives the following: Said Mr. Skinner ner of Skinner A Co., the Lewiston bobbin and spool manufacturers, today: "Yea. indeed! We have already experienced good resnlta from the McKinley tariff bill. Cotton milia are extending their operations everywhere, woolen mills are starting up, and we are rushed with orders for bobbins and spools. The McKinley bill is going to help business very much.*' THE ELECTIONS. Forecasts of Results In the Seienl States. Btptbdcus in Good Spirits ud Coifl deit of Hiking Lugo Gates. Latent From the Field ota the Bee of the Great Battle. Richmond, Va., Not. 3.—The election in Virginia tomorrow in for Congressmen only, the contest it strictly upon party lines. The democrats making issue on alleged short comings last Congress, and the repub licans defending its action. The fight will be most hotly contested in the first, second, fourth, eighth and nineth districts. In the other fire districts the chances are largely in favor of the success of the democrats. In the sixth district the democratic candi date in opposed by prohibitionists, but tem perance men in the state at large are taking no active part in the support of their can didate. In the nineth district the question of protection is urged by the republican candidate, the fight is to be settled on that issue. The Struggle in Ohio. Cincinnati, Ohio Nov. 3.—Ohio will elect Secretary of State, Judge of the Su preme Court, a member of the board of Public Works, a Representative to Con gress from each of its 21 districts and county officers. The election of members to Congress is the first under the reap pointment of districts made by the legis lature bp the act of March tl. 1890. By the vote two years ago six of these would elect republicans, viz: Second, tenth, twelfth, eighteenth, nineteenth and twentieth. Others should elect democrats. The campaign has very little of State is sues in it. The election of Congressmen has made the natiooal issues prominent. Perhaps the must interesting feature of the campaign in Ohio is the candidacy of Win. McKinley in the 16th District. Last year the counties in his District gave a demo cratic majority of There has been a most earnest effortjjby the republicans to elect McKinley, partly on account of his value to the party in on gress and partly as a vindication of his policy as an exhibitor in the tariff law. Equally in return have efforts been made to elect bis opponent, .Judge Warwick, to show that the people do not approve of the McKinley tariff bill. Another feature is the effect of Ex-Gov. 1 Charles Coster in the eighth district to over come the democratic majority of i:»00. The republicans are inclined to claim the) election of Congressmen, besides the six; already named as conceded, in the first, sixth, eighth, ninth, seventeenth and twenty first districts. The effect of the ex traordinary session of the legislature upon the election generally is regarded as favor able to the republicans, inasmuch as it de veloped divisions among the democrats and resulted in Cincinnati in putting a num-; ber of democrats out of office.

Michigan. Dktuoit, Mich.. Nov. 3.—In Michigan the Governor and full State ticket, eleven Congressmen and the Legislature are to be chosen at tomorrow s election. There ate four full State tickets in the field—repub-! lican, democratic, industrial and prohibi tion. Hon. James M. Turner is the repub-: lican candidate for Governor and Hon. E. j B. Winans the democratic candidate for j Governor. The democrats made an ag gressive fight against Turner and will probably reduce considerably the usual j republican plurality on the head of the j ticket. The industrial pary combination of what would be in other states the union labor and farmers’ alliance, and its inde pendent course in nominating a full State ticket prevents it from doing other than reducing somewhat the vote of the two predominent parties. Considerable inter est centers in tbe congressional contests in tbe close districts. Congressman Bur rows of Kalamazoo district, this year is opposed by his old democratic competitor, Ex-Congressman Yaple. Burrows will probably be re-elected. In Grand Uapids district, where C. W. Watkins is the re publi* an, and Ex-Congressman M. H. Ford the democratic candidate, the result i> hard to predict. In the Seventh district the republicans hope to gain their Congressman by defeating Congressman Whiting, and the democrats are ju*t as hopeful that they will not only hold this district but gain the Congressman in the Tenth district. Indications of No Choice for Gov ernor in New Hampshire. Concord, N. H., Nov. 3.—The election in New Hampshire tomorrow i* for the Suite and county officers and members of Congress and Legislature. Hon. Hiram A. Tuttle of Pittsfield is the republican candi date, Hon. Charles II Atniden of Pena cook the democratic, and Josiah II. Fletch er of Nashua the prohibitionist. The re publican candidate for Congressman in the first district is Hon. David A. Taggart of Goffstown: democratic, ex-Congressman Luther F. McKenney of Manchester. Sec ond district, Hon. Orren C. Moore of Nash ua is the republican candidate for re-elec tion and his opponent on the democratic ticket is Hon. Warren F. Daniell of Franklin. Tbe legislature to be chosen will elect a successor to Hon. Henry W. Blair for I nited States Senator as Mr. Blair will not be a candidate for re-election. Both of the leading parlies ha'e conducted a still hunt" in the campaign. The tariff is the most prominent issue. The vote in 1*8* aggregated :*0.6*1 but will probably not exceed *1,000 this year. The indica tions are that that there is no choice for governor as a majority-is required to elect. M' Kinley, dem., wiil be elected to Con gress in the first district and Moore, rep., in the second. Tbe legislature will be re publican by a small majority. The prohi bition vote will be small. Great Interest In Senatorial Contest in North Carolina. Kalki-.h, N. C.. Nov. 3.—The onlv gen eral significance of this year's election cen tres in the contest for the legislature.which will elect a United States Senator to suc ceed Senator Vance. The struggle i- be tween the democratic ami republican par ties. There are no side issues, except in one or two central counties, whet-- the Quakers put out local prohibition tickets. The I armer alliance is very strong in North Carolina, but they put out no separ ate tickets, and are working as orderly within ranks as two old parties. The of ficers to be elected by the state at large are Chief Justice, one Justice Supreme Court, nine Superior Court Judge-. Great inter est is feit in the result of the second, fifth, seventh, eighth and ninth Congressional districts. About 40,000 negroes have left the state in two years, which ha- reduced the republicen strength !0.0 democrats. Farmer* Will Take a Hand la Indiana. Indianaiolis, Ind., Nov. 3. The Farmers' Mutual Benefit Association is a new political factor in title State, which makes it impossible to predict w ith any de gree of certainty the result of Tuesday s election. It is generally conceded that th« coming legislature will be democratic by a small majority. This will ensure the re election of Senator Voorhees to the United States Senate. Secretary of State, auditor, treasurer and other minor State officers are to be chosen, and both parties claim the State ticket. In the congressional fight the republicans have derived a decided advan tage in several of the districts by for tunate combinations with the Farmers' Alliance, and they will probably gain one nr two ongressmen. A vigorous fight is being made by the republicans against Con gressman Cooper of the fifth diairict.on ac count of his charges against Pension Com mission Kaum. Indications point to Coop er’s re-election. The new election law goes into operation at this election. Iu Indiana Thais Are Several Doubt ful Districts. Moines, Iowa., Nov. 3.—The State officers to be elected in Iowa are Secretary of State, Treasurer, Auditor, Judge of Su preme Coutr and Railroad Commissioner. irdinarily the State gives a plurality of about 30,000 for the republicans, so the republicans have the greatest confidence in to morrows result. The democrats appear by no means without hope in repealing the victory of last fall, and are straining every effort to elect a state ticket. The farmers alliance is not particularly strong in Iowa, as the prohibition question was always a glowing issue. The situation may be sum marized by saying fight which overshadows all else, is a struggle in doubtful congres sional districts of the state. So many ele ments enter into these contests that the oldest politicians are refraining from any positi'e predictions. No less than six of the eleven districts are alleged doubtful by either of the partie-. A Democratic Split in Boutb Caroline. Columbia, S. C., Nov. 3.—The election in South Carolina is to be for a full State ticket and (ongressmen; an interest arises from a split in the democratic ranks caused by Tillman's nomination. Neither the liq uor nor the labor questions enter into the contest. The State lection hinges on op position by a small fraction of the demo cratic party calling themselves “Straight outs.'' A great body of white people will vote for Tillman.' It is possible that with the undivided support of the republicans Haskell straighout) ticket may be elected. The republican State executive recommend its support. There i- some disaffection in the Fourth district on account of the coarse pursued by W. Shell, the democratic candidate. As J. F. Ensor. the republican candidate, expressed himsetf adversely tb to the sub treasury scheme and the force bill is besides very popular among the white people, the race in that district bids fair to be exciting. I Only CoDgiossman to bs Elected in Alabama. Mobile, A la..‘Not. —The election in Alabama tomorrow is purely Congressional. There are eight districts. The farmers alliance made an effort in several districts to nominate their sndidates in tb to >0 majority. Claims elec tion of Marmon (Rep.) from the second district, not over confident, fearful of the defeat of Gaynes (Rep.) in the third dis trict because of the race prejudice growing out of the alleged remark claimed that Gaynes made in his speeches, that he was in favor of educating white and colored children in the same schools. Fourth dis trict considered so close that no one can conjecture the result. Expected the elec tion of Smith (Rep.) by a majority of 50 to 150. Atkinson claims the house of del egate* for republicans by two majority, and say* the Senate will be a tie. In Now Yoik. Ntw Yokk, Nov. 3.—The election in New York State tomorrow is for judge of court, appeals, two justices of supreme court, thirty-four members to congress, and members of assembly. The interest centers in a vote for congressmen also for members assembly, as the next legislature will select a successor to Senator Evarts. The present New York delegation in con gress consists of 19 republicans, and 15 democrats. The democrats are hopeful of making some gains, as are the republicans. The State senate bold* over. In this the republicans have 19, the democrats 13. To, secure a majority on joint ballot the demo crats must elect 63 ai'cmblymcn. and the republicans require 62 in the new election law. Id Florida. Jackson* ille, Nov. 3.—The election in this State is for Justice of tin- State Su preme court; State comptroller to till va cancy; members of the Legislature, which will elect a successor to Senator (’all; three out of six county officers and mem bers of ongress. Voters will he called upon to vote upon the constitutional amend ment which propose* to separate the State from the National elections, have the State elections in October instead of November. The contest is strictly between democrats and republicans, no nominations being made by any other parties except in a few counties where there arc independent can didates for the Legislature and county offi cers these are insignificant as effecting the final res ult of the election. Both Parties Confident. Hauttold*. Ct.. Nov. 3— Both parties arc expressing confidence. The prohibition and labor parties each have a full State ticket in the field. The new secret ballot operates this year for the first time in a general election. All ballots must go into a sealed envelope and all envelopes into one ballot box. A great delay in the count is expected in consequence. In esse the State ticket fails of a majority on the pop ular vote the legislature will elect the State officers from the highest two candi dates. The general expectation that the legislature will be called upon to do this. Senatorial Contest ie Illinois' Chief Feature. Chicago, 111., No* 3.—The chief fea ture of the campaign in Illinois is the con test that ex Governor John M. I'almer is waging for the United States Senator-hip, the only Stale officers to be elected this year being the Treasurer and Superintendent of Public Instruction. On the personal popularity of their leader the democrats base their strongest hopes for success in the State, which usually gives 20,000 plu rality for the republican tii* is estimated to be between quarter and a half a million, insurance light.

The retailer who tells a customer that he has been compelled to advance the price of any article of large domestic production because of the new tariff I iw is not an honest dealer, but a small member of the foreign Importers’ and i Democratic conspiracy to deceive and! defraud the people.

Tbs Llthg w Libia y Burled between the covers of the ju-t published municipal documents of Augusta—usually one of the dullest of publications—is, in many re$peets, the most interesting document ever pre sented to the people of our city. It is tile first report of the I.Uhgow Library and Heading Hoorn, ami contains a brief history of the bequest of the late Llewellen W. I.Uhgow, in honor of whom the library is uamed: a sketch of the old Augusta Literary and Library Association, which was the pre decessor of the present institution, aud also gives interesting facts relative to the administration, resources and nuni bers of volumes in th** present library Until quite recently it has been very hard work to maintain or interest the people of our city in the support of a public library. The State Library, while In no sense a public or circulating library for Augusta, ha* yet beeu so largely consulted and used by our eiti aent In the past, though sufferance on Um port of the librarian or other state eflhdnis. as to take tin* place of a dty library as such. Hence it has been hard work to maintain or establish a public library here iu which our citizens would take an interest and tor ante th support of which th$ people would all contribute. It has been hard and genei-' ally unsatisfactory work to evolve publte library. The old, “Williams Ffiiinifcy* hdMd,aadthe “Literary aud Ubijry Aancbttoo* wa» almott de.d vheathe tpleadM beqoett of the lata I Mr. Utbgtm became available for tbe? (imodMlUm of a public library.

mminn imm TTOMwLVSR UUTMm h Us U» still CeBrn M of Cattb it Inn. Di. Bailey find# Two Marked Cease aad Paata M .re. Dr. George H Bailey, ▼e’erieary ear gMi to the Maine Cattle ammieeteo it to this dty. coni ig here Monday from Orono where he had been called by an oathrvak of teberculosi* in tbe State College herd. On Friday Prof. Walter Balentiae notified him of .the outbreak, rayiig that oa that day they bed killed a Goerns-y heifer whose longs were badly used up with to her-aloe la. Dr. Bailey was seen by a Jotawai. re pofter after his arrival in this city, and in the brief time at bis disposal kindly ans wered all 'locations concerting his visit to the Stats Col ge. went down to Orono from Bangor this morning and in the short tin*- that I was theft examineJ bat on»- aoimti, having to ntatn to Auguste to attend court. 1T»e animal I inspected was the mother of tbe diseased heifer, and 1 foond a marked cate of tuberculosis.'' Do you think the disease is widespread amoog the hsrJ or has be*n contracted by animals now onteide the herd? “That 1 cannot tell till after an examin ation. I shall return to the college the last of this week and in company with the Cattb* Commissioners make a thorough in spection of the herd of thirty three catth which are now '{ueraotined." How did this ou'hreak arise, the disease bavieg been entirely eradicated io tbe slaughl'-r of tbe entire herd io April, 1»&*? it was leaned out hot again intro duced with the seven cattle which th> committee purchased in Massachusetts in the spring of '8'J. I told the committee that Massachusetts was full of tbe disease and that it existed among the finest herds. They purchased, however, from among healthy looking animals. Of coarse in the young animals the diseaic has not as a rale developed and is difficult to detect. 1 af terwards examined the animals and foond what appeared to te slight symptoms but these ps-sed away io time. No, there Is no doubt but what the disease was intro diced from Massediiset's. The cattle of that State are tilled eitli tuberculosis. 1 belisre that from to V* per cent, of the cattle in that State are infected with the disease There would be a panic among t’ e p opie if they should rialize what they *r« dm king into their systems with the milk from these herds." Dr. Bailey has acquired a wide reputation in diagnosing this disease and his words carry great weight. Though nothing has been determined with regard to tbe remainder of the State Col lege herd, it is feared that the disease is not confined to the two a'-itnals already condemned. Election Returns.
