80, 900 steel projectiles and l6 batteries of
cannon. All the Servian batteries have six
guns.
dispatch to the London Times from Paris

Ex-MayOr Bowman of East st. Louis As.
sassinated-The Deed a Political One.

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 81.
Ex-Mayor John b. Bowman of East ST.
Louis, H., was assassinated few feet from
his own door last evening. He was return
ing home with satchel in his hand, and a
man was seen walking behind him. As Mr..
Bowman reached his gate, the man walked
up, and, placing revolver at the back of his
neck, fired. The ex-mayor fell and died in
stantly. The murderer escaped, and the
police have no clew as to his identity. Mr..
Bowman was one of the best known politi-
clans in southern Illinois, and a warm friend
of Congressman Morrison. The news of the
murder spread with rapidity on both sides of
the river, and squad of policemen from this
city started for the scene of the crime. For
10 years Mr.. Bowman had full control of the
municipal government of East st. Louis. The
city government was divided into two hostile
factions, and in 1878 Bowman at the head of
one faction, and Welder at the head of the
other, appealed to arms. They fought in the
streets, and two men were killed and many
wounded. There is no doubt that this is a
political assassination. Coroner Wood of
st. Clair county, began an inquest this morn
ing, which developed nothing new, and is
still in progress. Bowman was worth $780,
900. His son stated to a reporter that his
father had received warning by telephone
from Mr.. Glenn Creveling that an enemy had
gone to Chicago to procure a bad man to do
him harm. Deceased's son offers a reward
of $1,000 for the murderer. The police have
no clue.

meeting the Baltimore & Ohio lines with the
Staten Island lines. From Staten Island
passengers and freight will be conveyed to
the Battery by boat. The contract is for SO
years, and was signed by President Garrett
OF the Baltimore & Ohio last Monday, and by
President Emmons of the Staten Island Rapid
Transit Co. this afternoon. The contract
provides that rates shall yield as mnch by
through traffic to the Rapid Transit Company

profits made by the latter company over the
Staten Island lines. The Baltimore & Ohio
guarantee the Rapid Transit Co.'S second

The Citizens OF Atlanta, Ga, About to
Decide Great Question.

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 81.
On Wednesday next will close the most re-
markable local contest ever carried on in any
southern city, when Atlanta will decide
whether the sale of liquor shall be prohibited
or not. For 10 years temperance agitation
has been carried on in Georgia, which has so
far succeeded that now, out of 1877 counties
of the state, the sale of liquor is only allowed
in l5. These Is counties are the seats of
large cities where the liquor element has
large property interests at stake. An election
on the question was ordered, on the petition
of 2S00 voters, to take place Nov. %. The
highest vote ever cast, even in presidential
year was little over 5000, and the registra-
tion in this election has run up to 5000. The
prohibitionists organized strong committee
backed by nearly all the preachers in the city.
Several distinguished speakers have for the
past 10 days been addressing audiences of
from five to ten thousand in Rev. Mr.. Jones'
gospel tent. The anti-prohibitionist have
been equally active, being led by Julius
Brown, son of the senator, Hon. Albert Cox
and many others. The most remarkable po-
litlcal feature of the campaign has been the
breaking up of party and color lines. The
ladies have taken up the contest with vigor.
Every element of society, all ages, sexes and
colors are stirred up, and nothing else is
talked Of

An Auburn Business Man Suddenly
Leaves for Canada.

LEWISTON, Nov. 81.
1t is just known that Charles f. Eaton of
Auburn, lately of the firm of Conant & Ea-
ton, insurance agents of this city, has fled to
Canada. He retired from the insurance firm
about three weeks since, collecting and
pocketing all money possible. His partner,
T. f. Conant, is tax collector here, but as
can be learned the money belonging to the
city is safe. Eaton forged several notes, us
ing the name of reliable business man in
this vicinity, and disposing of them promis-
cuousy. He also borrowed money from all
his acquaintances who would accommodate
him. He got something from his father, a
ighly respected citizen of Auburn. Eaton
is newly married man, about 2S years of
age, stout, and with heavy, overhanging
shoulders, dark complexion, sunken black
eyes and heavy moustache. His spoils will
amount to about $4,000. Hitherto he has
borne a frst-cass reputation.

Defines His Position Towards the Ad.

PORTLAND Orepnn

PORTLAND, oregon, Nov. II.
1t is learned that caucus of democratic
members of the legislature was held here,
Tuesday evening, when authority was given
to IL menbers to vote for John c.. Mitchell
for Senator on the promise that he would
vote to confirm President Cleveland's appoint.
ment. resolution was passed calling upon
the President for offices. The resolution re-
cited the general political status of the State
and urged that the democrats therein could
have control if they had the offices. The pc
tition was despatched to President Cleveland
on Thursday. A few minutes after his cleo
tion was announced, Senator Mitchell ad-
dressed the legislature and defined his atti-
tnde toward the President in the following
language:
If supposed tor one moment that any
democratic representative on this floor had
cast his vote for me under the impression
that it would have the effect of changing me
from republican to democrat, of course |
would not feel complimented; but | have
every reason to know that no gentleman, no
member of the democratic party cast his vote
for me under any such impression 1t is due,
however, that ] should state that recognize
the fact and l am now about to proclaim
from the housetop that which have ever pro-
claimed in the Senate chamber. recognize
the ldCt tudt dt tHe late national election, the
democratic party prevailed and elected a
democratic President, and what have to say
is that | shall not conceive it to be a part of
my duty as a Senator to go to Washington
and make factious opposition to the admins
tration now in power. The nominations of
the President of the United States, if they
are worthy men, shall have my vote for con-
firmatioD unless there is an attempt upon the
part of the President of the United States to
make appointments that will infringe upon
any tenure of office. If he should do so l
would oppose the President of the United
States"
