The Gold Market.
The Times monetary article says the bank
statement SATURDAY. is expected to show con-
tinuation of the locking up process of the gold
clique, but the cause being anticipated it is not
likely to accomplish the object sought to be
attained. Great efforts will be made to get the
reserve of the banks below the legal limit, by
keeping about $10,000,O00 in gold coin having
arrived from San Francisco yesterday, consign-
ed to leading bankers, and more is on the way.
Gold is also coming from Canada and Europe.
1t is estimated that $12 DOC, 900 IN gold coin has
arrived here from San Francisco since January
LIST. The treasury has large interest obliga-
ton to pay May LIST, and it is intimated that
these gold disbursements will be antic pated
early in April, as coon as the registered books
which close March 21st can be made up. From
all these sources the banks are likely to gain
gold in the future, and the gold clique may
learn to their sorrow that the time for gold
famine in this country is not near at hand.

MATTERS IN MAINE.
THE CARSON MURDER TRIAL.
Continuation of the Evidence for the Pros.
ecutiOn.

Continuation of the Evidence for the Pros
ecuti0n.
BANGOR, March 19.-The fourth day of the
Carson murder trial has been devoted to the
continued examination of witnesses for the
prosecution. The cross-examnation OF MIS-.
Doherty, the principal accuser, occupied the
entire forenoon, she having been on the STAND
during the preceding afternoon. Her testimony
related particularly to the axe with which she
saws the murder was committed, and other
points already gwen. The testimony of several
witnesses who were examined this afternoon,
disagreed with that of Mrs. Doherty in some
particulars The men who first saw Carson
after the affair, gave the story of the alleged
murderer as related at thai time, and which is
essentially the same as since told by Carson
repeatedly. The examination of the remain
ing witnesses for the prosecution will occupy
to morrow and probably the whole OF Monday.
Accident TO Yarmouth Vessel.
BOSTON, March 19.-Scnooner Casco Lodge
of Yarmouth, lumber laden and full of water,
was towed into Hyannis to-day by steamer
Cromwell, from New York for Portland. The
steamer proceeded to Portland.
Bangor Elects Democratic Mayor.
BANGOR, March 19-At the adjourned cleo
ton held in this city to-day, Frederick M.
Laughton (dem.) was elected Mayor by SO ma
jority, defeating Thomas G. Stlckney, the Re-
publican candidate The total vote was 32O9,
an increase of 1876 on last Mondays vote, and
was divided as follows: Laughton 1649; Stick
pey 1885; scattering (rep.) 49, Laughton over
Stickney, 1853; Democratic majority, 80. The
result is attributed to dissatisfaction with the
manner in which the Republican candidate
was brought forward by the radical prohibit
tionists and nominated over the officiating
mayor, whose administration was generally
approved, and who was entitled by usage to re-
election. Considerable interest was manifested,
especially on the Democratic side, but there
was no excitement.
The city government will comprise Demo-
cratic Mayor, four Republican and three DEM
ocratic aldermen, and twelve Republican and
nine Democrats in the council Republican
joint majority.

VINELAND, N. j., March 19.-The most in
tense excitement prevails at this place over the
shooting of Mr.. Carruth, editor of a paper here,
by Charles Lands, well known as the FEATHER
of Vineland." 1t appears that an article was
published in the paper, in which, however, no
names were mentioned, that Lands believed
referred to him. and at 10 o'clock this morning
he went to the office of Carruth, and after an
CRY words shot was heard. Investigation
disclosed the fact that Carruth was mortally
wounded Lands was Immediately arrested.
The feeling against Lands is very great and
threats OF lynching are freely made. To avert
trouble the authorities removed Lands to Jail
at Brdgton. Carruth was alive at 1890, but
the doctors have given up all hopes of his re-
covery.
