PRESIDENT HAYES VIEWS.
He Thinks Public Opinion will Compel

He Thinks Public Opinion will Compel
the Democrats to Back Down.
New YORK, Dec 30.-President Hayes said
yesterday, in relation to Maine affairs, that he
believed there will be no necessity for hearing
the legal points in the case advanced by MIR.
Morrill,. and believes an understanding will
be arrived at by week from Wednesday. He
said:
The Democrats cannot do otherwise than
back down. They know that they have made
a sad blunder To think that the old Eastern
State, with all its culture and educational adj
yancement, will stand such a perversion of the
peoples prerogaJive, is too absurd. | know
they will not. There is no occasion for viol-
ence. A few foolish men perhaps may make
a little noise, for there are always foolish men
pushing to the front ON such occasions. But [
do not apprehend that there will be any seri-
GUS disturbance. The whole people will come to
see the justice of the case, and this healthy
public opinion will settle the matter. The
question will be settled before next Wednes-
day week. The Democratic party cannot at
ford to have Governor Garcelon refuse to send
the legal points to the courts and endeavor to
maintain his present position. They cannot
afford to lose all their hold upon the State of
Maine, and it is not only this particular State,
but the prospect of the party all through the
country will be seriously affected. Their stu
pid blunder of last year, when they forced the
extra session upon the nation, and their pecu-
liar action at that session, have not yet been
forgotten.
He concluded by saying that he felt conf
dent that the people of Maine were thoroughly
capable of fighting their own battles. He
knew that throughout the country there was
intense telling upon the subject, and if the
Democrats of Maine retained their present
attitude, it might become serious

THE DUNDEE DISASTER.
A Storm Of Terrible Violence.
THE SUPPOSED MANNER OF THE ELS
ASTER.

LONDON Dec. 30.-Reports from Paisl ey,
Greenock and and Edinburgh say that the
storm ragged with great violence. The wind
blew in Tremendous gusts and the rain was
drenching All accounts mention the contin-
uous bowling and roar of the wind which dead
ened the falling crash of the central portion
of tho bridge.
The opinion of the engineer of the bridge,
who inspected it yesterday, is that the tram
proceeded without interruption until 1t reach
ed the high girders. Then one or more OF the
back carriages went off the rails. coming
against the lattice work, and tore the structure
to pieces, causing the disaster. Showers of
sparks were seen by those on shore, believed to
have been caused by the collision OF the car
riages with the iron work.
The gale which destroyed Tay bridge was
the most violent in Scotland since January
1868. From the time the gale began it con-
tinued to increase in fury until hurricane
ragged from the southwest. The streets OF
Dundee were covered with debris
Three more bodies were washed ashore by
the Tay today, which are thought to be those
of the train men, as the cars were all locked.
All the mails have been recovered. The news
papers are unanimous in demanding a search
ing investigation into the cause of the disaster
After several unsuccessful attempts the
divers have discovered first class passenger
carriage of the wrecked train, but there were
no first class passengers. Operations will be
resumed Wednesday.

Boston, Dec. 30.-Helen Josephine Ward, a
lady living at II Hamilton Place. with her
daughter, girl of II, was mysteriously shot
last night and died this morning. From what

Miss Ward was arrested and committed this
morning, there being ground for the belief
that the act was premeditated and not accident-
al There are conflicting statements attributed
to Miss Ward, one being that she saw an OBJ

it is stated that she confesses to having shot
