The Outlook in Maine.

PORTLAND, Me, Nov. 3.-Since the
September election there has been but
little excitement over politics in Maine,
but there are indications of full vote to-
morrow. 1t is not believed that the total
vote will be as large as in September, but
the plurality for Blaine is expected to
reach $4,000. There are no officers to
elect but electors, so the contest will be
simply on Presidential candidates. There
is no reason to suppose that the Labor
and Prohibition tickets will draw more
than in September. Garfeld's plurality

LONDON, Nov. 3.-The Times this morn
ing devotes a leader to the political con-
test in America, in the course of which it
says:
Although the numbers polled tomorrow
will probably exceed those polled at any pre-
vious contest, nevertheless it would not be
rash to say that the vast majority of Ameri-
cans regard the issue with Indifference For
eigners have still less reason to feel a keen
interest. The campaign has been almost ex-
clusvey managed by experienced and adroit
professional politicians. To them alone the
result will bring exultatiOn or dlsappoint-
ment. The most satisfactory feature of the
whole campaign is the failure of all attempts
to revive for party purposes the sectional
jealOusies of the North and South. MIR

A NIACONITES MUTILATION
LeaPing from Flying Train He Meets
Horrible Death.

MACON, GA, Nov. 3.-This afternoon
Alfred Truman, a well known carpenter,
aged 30 years, was buried. He was the
victim of a terrible accident Saturday
night, resulting in instant death. He
purchased a ticket to Summerfield, eight
miles above Macon, where his sick wife
was staying for the benefit of her health
and intended spending Sunday with her.
He boarded a train which left Macon con-
slderably behind time, owing to the COLI
sion on the Central Railroad. The train
ran very rapidly and passed Summer
neld without stopping, perceiving which
Truman jumped off about two
miles above Summerfeld, while the
train was going at full speed.
The ground where Truman struck
was very much torn, suggesting the idea
that he ahghted on his feet, then re-
bounded and that his head was thrown
violently against railroad bar of iron,
crushing his skull, dashing out his brains
and badly disfguring his face. His
clothes were much sOiled by blood and
dirt. His dead body was found aside the
track and brought to Macon. A Cor
oner's inquest was held and brought in a
verdict in accordance with the above
facts. He was not drinking the night he
met his death. His relatives will bring
suit against the Central Railroad for a
large amount ON the ground that he met
his death by the conductor not stopping
the train at Summertieid. Messrs. Lanier
and Anderson will be employed to prose-
cute the suit.

An italian Attempting to Mary Twelve.
Year-OId Girl.

An italian Attempting to Mary a Twelve
Year-Old Girl.
The procession of Italians. the women
in gay costumes and most of the men
dressed like laborers. trooped across
City Hall Park yesterday afternoon and
entered the hall by the rear door. The
leader was Mr.. Bergamini, the money
broker, of No. 10 Center street. A girl
not ever four feet in height came last.
She was clad in brown dress with a
bright blue waist, her head was uncov-
cred, and profusion of chains hung
about her neck, and rings were upon
nearly all her fingers. She prattled
with. her companion during the walk,
and laughed with childish glee when
the hall was reached. 1t was a we'd
ding party, and the child was the bride.
Entering the hall, piloted by Mr.. Ber-
gamini, they proceeded to the Alder
manic Library, where the necessary
papers We're filled out. The girl-bride
was Teresa Ballote, and her age was
set down at between twelve and thir-
teen. The groom was Demenico Mil
ano. aged twenty-six. Mr.. Bergamini
hustled about, and when the attending
witnesses had affixed their signatures 10
the certificate declared that everything
was ready for the ceremony. After
some delay Alderman Dempsey was
found. The parties stood up, when the
Alderman demanded: Show old is that
child?'
'.Not quite thirteen" said Mr.. Ber-
gamini.
81 won't marry such a child" said
the Alderman, land it is an outrage to
have her married. You must get some
,ne else," and, hastily walking out he
banged the door to show his displeasure.
SWELL, WE'LL" said Bergamini, 1--WE
must ge. some one else. Where is
Alderman Finck? He will do it right
off,"
A search for the willing Alderman
proved fruitless, and, again headed ty
he indefatigable Bergamini, the party
uttered the private room of Judge Nc
Adam. Before the papers were shown
