THE STATE OF MAINE.
Particulars of Her Rescue from Point
Lepreaux Rocks.


The ST. John Sun, giving ithe particulars of
tne successful floating of the State of Maine,
says: AT o'clock on Saturday afternoon
shortly before high water, the steamer State
Of Maine was successfully hoated off the rocks
at Point Lepreaux. The American tug Cy-
ciops and the Dirigo of this port took her in
tow and started for Dipper Harbor, which was
reached at $50 in the evening. The steamer
was oeached and at low water she was far
above low water mark. Her bottom will be
repaired at Dipper Harbor, and she will then
be towed to either Boston or Bath for repairs.
1t is expected the Cyclops will today come to
this port for the lumber necessary to
strengthen the bottom of the steamer, The
beach at Dipper Harbor is very fine, being
composed of gravel and sand. The steamer
New Brunswick was passing at the time and
the passengers witnessed the floating of the
steamer.
The steamer State of Maine went ashore on
Point Lepreaux during dense fog on the 18th
of July. John A. Ruddock was awarded the
first contract to get her off, but after a fort
nights labor ne was reluctantly obliged to
abandon the work. The Merritt Wrecking
Company OF New York then made contract
with the International Steamship Company to
get the boat off, and on the 18th of August
they commenced operations. Since that time
their work has been retarded by rough
weather and great difficulty has been expert
enced in blasting the rock away.
-Four pontoonE were used to raise the steam.
er, two being placed on each side of the boat.
Three chains were run from the pontoons On
one side and by divers placed in position I'M.
derneath the vessel and then attached to the
pontoons on the other side. Empty oil casks
were placed in the hold SO as to tighten her.
1t is remarkable fact that the hull of the
steamer has received very little damage,
which speaks volumes for the way in which
she was built. The International COMPANY
are to be congratulated in having, through the
exertions OF the Merritt Wrecking Company.
saved such a valuable boat"

RurgIars Mt Work i'm Weld.

The store of G. G. Dummer at Weld village
was broken into on Saturday night. The en-
trance was effected by unloosing the fastenings
OF back window, tools for that purpose being
taken from the blackshop shop of A. Fl. Jones.
A hole was drilled in the door of the safe so
that charge Of some explosive character
could be inserted of power sufficient to blow
the door off and the lining of the safe out.
Not large amount of money was taken, but
all the postage stamps on hand, and collec-
tion of old and rare coins. Mr.. D. estimates
his loss at about $40. Three strangers were
seen about the village that evening, who it is
thought were the guilty parties, although no
traces of them can be followed. The mail.
among which was number of registered let
tiers, was left untouched

Of tho day were the discovery OF errors
In New York city and fraud In Albany

The Philadelphia Press adYces from New
York today say that Information has reached
the National Committee OF several serious
stances OF illegal voting and incorrect returns,
and OF numerous illegal, imperfect and packet
records OF the vote actually cast on Tuesday.
Some OF these arc so well substentiated that
their proof appears as certain as conviction
on a good indictment drawn against an old Of
fender and habitual criminal. Some are sup.
ported by cumulative evidence which VIII

The case against the face Of the returns is
rapidly and swiftly shaping itself, with every
prospect that when the proper time comes, to-
morrow, 1t will be possible TO demonstrate TO
the satisfaction Of the court, and prove TO the
country, that the vote OF New York, legally
canvaasod and onicially counted, will return a
plurality for Blaine. The situation has dis
