Thursday.
MANCHESTER. n. H.. Sent. 6.

MANCHESTER, n. H., Sept. Is.
AT noon the number of people within the
grounds OF the New England Fair could be
less than $1,000. The first event in the
program was AN extensive blowing match.
In the field three-fourths Of mile south of
the park were seven classes with large
number of entries in each.
There was an exhibition of stations and
other horses. Gev. Butler was met by the
reception committee, which included Presi-
dent Loring and officers of the two agricll-
tural societies, Gov. Hale of New Hamp-
shire and staff, ex-Guvs. Weston and Cheney
of New Hampshire. Hon. Moody Currier,
the city officials of Manchester and others.
Among the Butler party were several of his
staff, Gov. Jarvis of North Carolina and
Secretary Chandler and brother. Senator
Pike of New Hampshire was with the party,
also ex-senator Rollins, Commodore Badger,
Pavdirector Gilman. Chief Engineer Robe
and several others. The guests were es-
corted about the city and inspected the
Amoskeag companies mills.
At 80 the party arrived at the park and
were driven to the presidents headquarters.
A general reception and handshaking took
place, followed by brief addresses by Gen.
Loring, Cows. Hale of New Hampshire, But
Ter of Massachusetts and Jarvis of North

here was subject to the old rules and laws of
measurement by which the builders were
obliged to pay for the entire capacity Of the
vessel and not for her carrying capacity as in
England Our ships were charged 25 per
cent more for wharfage on the other side than
were the English. In-le70 l invested ms
money in shipbuilding. During these twelve
years there has been great reduction in the
cost of ships. The modern iron ship can be
built cheaper than the wooden ship of 1853.
Ii Is also fact that the iron ship. made
here now are cheaper than those made in
England in 1870. The chief difference be-
tween the cost of the iron ships maie here
and in England is due 10 the fact that higher
wages must be paid in this country than in
England. As 80 per cent. of the cost of an
iron vessel is paid for labor, it becomes a
most important item in making estimates"

An UNKvOwS VESSEL.
SINK OF the Nova scotia C0aat-Posst'
bly, the United States steamer
Alliance.

HALIFAX, Sept. G.
Something more definite has been received
relativeao the unknown sunken steamer on
Indian Harbor.. The wreck appears to have
been first noticed Saturday, and there is little
doubt that the ship went down during the
violent gale last Wednesday night. Capt.
Albert Pride of the packet schooner Arrow,
who was the first to make the discovery, Las
arrived at Sherbrooke and he makes the fol-
lowing report:
Saturday last, when near Mate Shoals, my
vessel bearing southeast by south two miles
from Mate on the east side of Indian harbor
observed ships spar in the water with
keel upward showing about y feet in the
through of the sea. 1t was pitch pine and
about Is inches in diameter 1t appeared
fast to the standing rigging of vessel aud
evidently had been sawed half through aud
then broken off. White paint and little
loose canvass were visible beneath the water
and derrick boom similar to those used on
steamships was attached to the spar. The
water WAS then quite thick and black with a
substance that seemed to be coal dust. and
in consequence nothing could be seen more
than an inch or two below the surface.
The report made by Pride is doubted by
some, but other corrobate his story. The
wrecked steamer probably struck a sunken
rock ana went down before any one on ooatu
had time to leave her. What her name is
will remain unknown until the scene is
reached by divers. Fears have been ex-
pressed that it might be the United States
steamer Alliance which is expected at Hall
fax from Charlestown. That vessel, how
ever, was to call at several places on the
way and may not be due for several days
yet.
MONTREAL, Sept. 6.

ORCHARD. Sept, G.

OLD ORCHARD, Sept, t.
The National christian temperance camp
meeting association and the Maine State
temperance alliance began this afternoon.
Rev. Mr.. Lord of Maize. opened with prayer.
The opening address was by Hon. Nelson
Din eley, Jr., of Lewiston. He said there is
no problem before the American people OF
graver significance than that of intoxicating
drink. There is but one way of getting
around it. and that is to fight unremittingly.
The object of constitutional amendment to
be voted for in September, 1884, was to
strengthen the law SO it can never be repeal
ed, and TO terrify its enemies. He claimed
that the interest in temperance is taxing
significant stand all over the country. He
closed with an urgent appeal for united work
next year Capt. John B. Coyle of Port
land said the whole world is agitated by this
great question. The christian women were
doing noble work, and the ministers had not
done their duty. He related an incident bear
ing on the work. Rev. Alfred Noon of Rock
port, Grand Worthy Patriarch of the Sons of
Temperance of Massachusetts. made an elo-
auent address He said the Roman Catholic
churches were working with the Protestants
against ntemperance. Andrew NJ. Chase of
Of Deering, Rev. Mr.. Munson of South Ber-
wick, and others made brief addresses.

A rudy faced man, with light blue ewes

In the course of his testimony he grew elo.
Quent and waved his arms in the most vipor-
Gus manner. lie stated that there were about
5000 men, representing twenty five different
trades, in his employ. There has been
gradual improvement in the condition of
the laboring class for the past twenty
years." continued Mr. Roach There
is no reason to-day why an indus
trious workman should not own his
own house. There are several men
who have been in my employ ever since
started in business. They are all owners of
houses and have accumulated some property
besides. Last year 81, 5s7 200 was paid in
wages to my workmen. l am firm believer

not opposed TO trade unions. but throw OMEN
the doors of NV shops to all men who will
abide by our rules. Perhaps this is the
reason why have had so little trouble with
my workmen. There is always difference
in wages, even among men doing the same

wastes them. Another is irregular in his
habits. drinks, goes cunning and thus breaks

some definite rules

"My profits have not averaged over five per

would you be willing to build ships for
the Government at that rate ~ asked the Sen.
ator with a smile.
"Yes. would fill my yard with vessels
at that figure" he answered
In regard to the Importance of American
shipbuilding Mr.. Roach said: Il think that
the building and equipping of American ships
nave been the saving of our Nations life.
FOR this reason, if for no other, it should he
