NOT 4 PRACTICAL JOKE.


Bar HARBoR, Sept. 2.
The absurd story telegraphed from Bangor
and published in the Bangor Commercial ana
Portland Argus yesterday concerning the late
Green Mountain highway robbery, alleging
that the parties had been discovered to De
practical jokers, and that the stolen proper
~ had been returned to the Messrs. How, Is
an utter lie from the beginning. A reward
of $1,000 awaits the person who shall secure
the arrest and conviction of the highwayman,
and nothing will be spared on the part OF the
Messrs How or our local authorities to Sc
cure the arrest and punishment Of the Offend
er whoever he may be or whatever may have
been his motives.

Certainly not because was an independent
republican, for belong to the old repu alican
party, the party of Fremont, of Lincoln, of

Certainly not because am aggrieved be-
cause the county or my town has suffered by

Al the present time am stalwart repub-

INDICATIONS OF A SETTLEMENT.

Later-The strike now seems to be on the
eve of settlement. The men who resigned
sent a memorial to the castle this evening,
expressing deep regret at their action and re-
spectfully asking Lord Spencer to consider
their case. Lord Spencer replied that, if
they returned to duty this evening, their case
would receive the fullest consideration. A
number of the men returned to their posts,
and large proportion Of the night reliefs are
now on duty. This result has unquestiona-
bly, saved the city from scenes of rioting, as
many of the special constables who have
come forward have been utterly unable to
cope with the disorder. Early this evening
the Lord Mayor issued another proclama-
ton, thanking the citizens for their peaceful
and orderly conduct, and stating that he had
mistaken confidence in their patriotism and
self-respect. Altogether, 700 specials were
sworn in during the day, but the resumption
of duty by the regular police have obv lated
the necessary for their employment.
