FASTING Committee to State Prison-Mr. Lacy
The committee on Senatorial votes are inst
now the hardest worked committee of the Leg.
islature. They had meeting yesterday after.
noon, in which the Aroostook Senatorial cleo
ton case was reached The returns of votes
from four places, Van Buren,, Eagle Lake,
Blaine and Macwahoc. were found to be incom-
plete, inasmuch as they were not properly at
tested by the officers of the town meeting. The
committee agreed to admit the arguments of
counsel on the law and precedents in counting
votes where the returns were incomplete. In
the evening the meeting was held in the Senate
Chamber, and the counsel P. G. Keegan. for
Madigan. and W. P. Whitehouse for Burleiph,
made their arguments.
The committee have been in session nearly
all the forenoon today, and have agreed to make
report to the Senate Monday seating one of
the contestants. The meetings today have been
private, but am allowed to guess that Bur-
leigh will be given the seat
The committee found some little irrsgularity
in the returns from Cumberland county. That
from the town of Westbrook shows that James
IL. Bailey had 1899 votes. 1t should have been
James, and if not clerical error, will unseat
Bailey from Cumberland. The votes cast and
other evidence in the case have been sent for.
A petition for the division of the town Of
Berwick was offered in the House today, and
referred to Committee on Towns.
A large number of petitions in aid of that for
mineral survey of the State were presented
A great interest in this survey is being mani.
