The business of shipping ice from the Ken
nebec is il full blast, the demand for ice
from the South being very heavy. Ice COM
panies find it very difficult to hire sufficient
number Of men. One of the lars est firms on
the river is so men short of full crew and
we're recently obliged to purchase 5000 tons
OF ice OF another company, although they had
plenty of ice in their own houses. but for
lack OF men could not ship it. Ice freights
to Baltimore and Philadelphia have run abou,
the same as last year. They started at IS
cents ton, then jumped up to 90 cents and
afterwards tell of somewhat, now being about
20 cents. Ice dusing its vo, age between the
hennebes and the South melts away very
rapidly On the trip from Name to Calves

Sullivan Newton. situated in Dennistowu,
two miles above Moose river, were burned
July 10th, about five o'clock in the after
noon. 1t was with difficulty that small
part of the household furniture was saved,
and that in a damaged condition. Mr. New

engaged in numbering, and lost a large
amount Of tools and camp equipages; also
wagons, carts, harnesses, farming tools, hay,
grain and provisions. Two calves were
burned. Loss probably will exceed $4,000

Major Phipps is locked up in MOya-

in Philadelphia that Phipps was merely
tool in the hands of few Ring pOliti-

these politicians have furnished the
money to fight the extradition proceed
ing. Their hope Of salvation is that
Phipps will take his punishment and
not confess. According to the extradi-
tiOn treaty Phipps cannot be tried for
embezzlement, but only for forging
contractors warrants, which he did to
raise money to satisfy the politicians.
1t is not likely that the trial will con-
cIude without some rather astounding
developments, especially If by making
them Phipps can secure a lighter punish
m0nt.

ANOTHER FAILURE.
TheiIrOn Firm OF James MarshaII-& 8 Co., OF
Pittsburg ,iGO to the Wall

PITTSBURGH, April 16.-Great excite
ment was created here to-day over the
announcement that the well known firm
of James Marshall q Co. had made an
assignment, for the benefit of their
creditors, to George l. Whitney, of this
city, and that their liabilities would
reach fully $1,500,OO0, while their assets
would fall short of this about quarter
Of million. The news spread like wild
fire, and short time thereafter was the
whole topic of conversation in CONNER
ctal and financial circles. The cause OF
the failure was too reckless specula-
tiOn in pig iron. The banks of this city
are the largest creditors, but they are so
well protected that they will not lose a
cent. They have collateral for every
dollar of their loans and it is of such
character they will have no trouble in
realizing the amount of paper held by
them. Among the other creditors are
Marshall Brothers of Philadelphia; Ho-
grett, Hanna q Co., of UniOntOwn, Pa,
Fayette Brown, receiver of Brown, Bon
nell q Co., of Youngstown, Ohio; Dunbar
Furnace Co., FaiTchRnce Furnace Co.,
and Rock Hill Furnace Company. Ali
OF these firms have claims for iron fur
nished. The firm of James Marshall g.
Go. Is one or the oldest in the city, and
has always been looked upon as one of
the most substantial. While their fail
ure was surprise to many, it was not
wholly unexpected in financial circles,
and the banks have been quietly looking
for 1t for months.

WALLACE vs. MCKINLEY.

CARRoLLToN, O., April 17.-Major Nc
Kinley closed his forty days for taking
testimony in CarrOlltOn today in rather
a farcical manner. His friends sought
to throw out the votes of DR. Kirby and
Harvey Shiltz Of Perry township, on
the grounds Of non residents, but failed.
Their own judge of election went back
on them, and the accused were not call
ed on to testify in their own behalf, al
though present by summons. This clO-
ses McKinley's time for taking testimo-
mOny. Mr.. BiIlingsly, counsel for Ma
jor Wallace, informs your reporter
that Mckinley has only gained one vote
in Mahoning county, two in Stark, one
in Columbiana, and one in the town of
East Liverpool, leaving Major Wallace
about thirty votes ahead.
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1883-04-18

LAST week four aged men, were
brought from the County Infirmary and
examined as to where and for whom
they voted. They were legal voters, and
as has been the practice In this county,
said they voted in the precincts where
they lived before removing to the In
tirmary. This ruling has been on the
idea that they were at the Infirmary, as
a temporary arrangement only, and
hence had no legal right to vote in that
township. The votes were legal and
were Democratic and were cast where
the authorities here have always de-
cided they should be.
The Repository of course claims fOur
more votes for Mckinley claiming these
Wallace votes must be thrown outl
This Mckinley organ claims freely.
Last fall it said he had majority.
Foster and his Board said Mckinley had
but one, and tight squeeze then. The
fraud organs are some on claiming.
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1883-04-18

EVEN Republican State Returning
Board counted in Mckinley by oRIy Of
majority, although majority waa
ness of seven of the % Wallace votes,
returned scattering, and not counted for
Jonathan II. Wallace by Republican
judges of election. This did not include
IA votes at COlumbiana that were thrown
out, and not Tailed and returned at all.
Yet the Repository claims 1t was all
straight and lovely, and Mckinley was
duly elected. These Mckinley organs
are ever ready to bow down and
serve their master. Fraud even has
no terrOrs for them.

wAaNEK's BODY FOUND.

DENVER, April 1.-THE body of Fred
Wagner, brother of the deceased palace
car man, a native of New York, and for
whom extended search was made last
fall, was found by emigrants last Sun
day on the bank Of a creek eight miles
from Powers Station, on the Santa Fe
Railroad. The body was terribly dis
figured. Considerable money was found
scattered about. A plain gold ring, with
the inscription "a. B. toF. W., Febru-
ary 1, 1884," was found near; also, the
business card of Frederick Wagner, sue
cessor to ]. Bumiller, New York. A
bullet-hole in the back of the neck
proves eOnclusiVely he was murdered
for the large amount Of money 1t was
supposed he carried on his person.

THE Repository last fall claimed No
Kinley's election by majority. Fosters
state returning board counted him In by
1, and thus Mckinley got the certificate
Of election from Foster & Co. The Reps
claim was seyen-eighths LIE, according
to Foster q Co.; that Is, the State Board
counted seven votes for Wallace, which
Republican judges Of election had refu-
sed to count for him. And the State
Board only counted about one-third Of
the Wallace votes, which were not cOun-
ted for him, but returned otherwise.
The Reps claims now are seven eighths

D1sGRACEFUL DEADLOCK.

men.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL, April 1.-THE
deadlock in the Illinois House of Repre-
sentatiVes was continued yesterday, the
Democrats leaving the hall when the
election contest of Bradwell vs. McNaIly
was brOached, thus breaking the quo
rum. The dOOrkeeper was instructed by
those remaining to bring in the absent
ees, and during his absence certain of
the Democratic members attempted to
re-enter the hail, but finding the doors
locked, tore the doors from the castings
and entered and took their seats. The
House soon after adjourned. Both par
ties held a caucus last evening, but no
arrangement was made toward the set
tlement of the differences. Cover
nor Palmer advised the Democrats to
stand by the position taken.
