TEE CAUCUS IN WARD TWO.
Revoivers Drawn-A Lively Fight With
the Officers.


The Democratic caucus in Ward began at
noon yesterday, voting being conducted Dy the
check list. The contest for alderman mar
rowed down to Mr.. Gallagher and Edward
buddy, Mr.. Lappin having withdrawn. At
O'Clock Mr.. Gallagher was thought to lead
slightly. For the rest of the ticket nothing
was certain. Messrs Lappin, Wilson and
Quinn were the prominent names for the COM
mon council but the ballots were cut in half
dozen different ways. The voting was quite
brisk
AT s O'Clock the polls were declared closed
and cheers for Gallagher and buddy followed.
The ward room was packed with yelling
mass OF men, and about twenty-five were out
on the sidewalk.
young man by the name of Michael Ward
was standing near the desk making great
deal OF talk. Ofiicsr McGrath requested him
to keep quiet, whereupon the man struck
McGrath in the face. Officer jackson was
struck and held down by an unknown person.
The crowd yelled and suiged to and fro in
great excitement, crowding hard against the
officers, while severe struggle was going on
between them and Ward. Policeman McDon-
ough tried in vain to keep the crowd back.
Revolvers were now brandished by the officers
and Patrolman Hussey. who was outside,
hearing the cries, rushed in, stepping upon
the shoulders of the men in his way. On
reaching the scene of the contest he rendered
good assistance, and made an opening through
which the prisoner was hastily pushed. The
crowd followed the officers, and for moment
it seemed as though the man would be taken
from the hands of the police, but the thing was
so skilfully managed by them that no further
trouble occurred.
The result was announced for the alderman
first, which was in favor of Gallagher, and
loud cheers were given for him, as also for Mr..
buddy. Both candidates were summoned to
the front. Mr.. Gallagher thanked the assem-
bly, Tor his nomination, and Mr.. Dnddy
acknowledging that he was beaten, wished
success to Mr. Gallagher on the election and
declared his intention of supporting him. The
ballot for councilmen was read at about $50
o'clock and much feeling was expressed at the
defeat Of Mr.. Lappin.
The nominations are.
Alderman-John A. Gallagher
Councilmen--Virgil G. Wilson,i James
Quinn, Michael e. Carney.
Warden-Michael G. McCann
Clerk-Joseph A. MCGOWAN.

A RuiIding Crushed I'm.

Yesterday afternoon about five o'clock a train
OF two cars was backed down upon Central
wharf. The track was covered with four inch
es OF heavy snow, and when near the rear end
OF Messrs. Kennel & Tabor's office the FORE
most car was derailed and vent crashing
through the end OF the building tearing off the
two exterior sides of q room used for keeping
coal and wood. The brsken timbers were
piled up in mass, telephone wires were
broken and the only thing left hanging in the
room was gas meter which fortunately was
not struck. Strange to say, nothing in the
second story was harmed not even pane of
glass being cracked. The book-keeper o mo-
ment before the building was struck was get
ting coal in the room and narrowly escaped
injury.
The building is owned by the Central
Wharf company and the damage is estimated
to be about 800.

farm at Aliens Corner, where the last case
was reported-that of cow-three more ami
mails were found affected. Under these cir
cumstances DR.. Bailey will call the commits
sioners together and more stringent measures
will be taken at once. What is most to be
feared is that the location of Mr.. Smiths cat

STRANGE AFFAIR.
Steamship Passenger Claims 10 Have
Bcen Robbed of Fortune.

Steamer Circassian Of the Allan Line, Cap
tain William FL. Smith, arrived at this port
about IL o'clock yesterday morning. She en-
countered very severe passage, with heavy
gales. The day before reaching Halifax, W.
Il. Haigh, a.cabin passenger, reported he had
bcen robbed Of s70 in gold, EGO in Bank of
England notes, iewelry to the value OF 5000
and private papers of great value. Captain
Smith ordered the crew and the ship to be
searched without success, and on arriving at
Halifax procured three detectives and had the
crew and vessel again searched. Mr.. Haigh
declined to allow any Of the passengers to be
searched. This Is the first extensive robbery
OF an Allan steamer since the famous Sprungly
robbery five years ago. In the present case
Mr.. Haigh stopped over at Halifax and tele-
sraphed for funds and information concerning
the valuable papers. The total loss involved
Ia said to be $3S2,ooO. The money and valua-
bles were In carpet bag at the head of the
bed In Mr.. Hagh's state room. He had con-
siderable company In his room, and his declin-
alton to have the passengers searched gives
the matter o rather queer look.

SHEEP SMUGGLING.
Sharp Practices of a Somerset County Syn
dictate.


Two brothers, named Cloutier, residing in
Canada, gathered up quantity of sheep and
lambs in small lots, to bring to the United
States on speculation. Neither of them could
speak word of English, and they brought
cousin along with them to act as interpreter
They drove the sheep into the United States,
to the custom house located at the Forks of
the KenDebec, and entered the sheep at so a
head and the lambs at $157, and paid the du-
ties. They then started from the Forks with
their sheep, but before they got far they were
stopped, the sheep seized by the customs au-
thorities on the ground of under-yaluation,
and information against the Cloutiers. The
brothers then came to Portland and put in
petition in the United States District Court
for remission of the forfeiture.
In the meantime the sheep were sold at auc-
ton. The Cloutiers returned to the Forks,
where the sheep were to be sold by the authori-
ties, and on the way saw one of the men (who
afterwards bought the sheep) who agreed to
furnish the Cloutiers with the money to buy
the sheep at the sale, but who never fulfilled
his agreement.
This man happened to be sheep speculator,
and he entered into an arrangement with sew
eral others, by which one was to buy the sheep
the others agreeing not to bid against him;
and after the sheep were bought. this syndi-
cate was to divide the profits among them
selves, and when any one appeared disposed to
bid on the sheep he was taken into the syndi-
cate.
The sheep, although entered az above stated,
sold for $1.01 per head. Then the syndicate
met and put up the sheep at auction among
themselves, to see what any one of them
would give over the auction price. The mon
ey received over this auction price was divided
among the syndicate. There were about 1000
sheep and lambs In ALL
The men forming this syndicate were after
wards indicted for conspiracy to prevent COM
petition in the sale and to get the sheep at less
price than they were worth. Seven of the
syndicate were arrested and brought before the
United States District Court in this city where
they pleaded qolo contendere, and were fined
S25 each and costs. The syndicate numbered
nine, but the eighth died and the ninth turned

There will be continuous music throughout

had infinite diversion in polo playing, various
races and other athletics, and impromptu
masquerading.
