The Bath constabuIary.

During the hearing before the Governor
and Council last week on'petition to appoint
James Bailey special liquor constable for
Bath, the Governor defined his position and
that of the Council as follows:
Perhaps it is due to the Governor and Council to
saw to an present that there has been no time
since this matter was brought to our attention,
which was nearly six monthssago but that we nave
been ready and willing and perhaps might say
anxious to appoint TWO men whose duty IL snoulu
be to enforce the prohibitory law in Sagadahoc
county. We intimated that feeling at your nrSt
hearing. The Governor and Council have been
severely criticised by the newspapers for not do
ing their duty. We do not feel that we deserve
criticism, and for the reason that the only queS-
tion here is the enforcement of this law. Ihat Is
the great question and with no other nave we
anything to do. Certainly we are not to deal with
nersona1ities We have allowed great deal OF
liberty in this matter, and think we nave given
to the question all the attention 1t deserves. But
at the same time 1t seems 10 me, tne great ques.
ton of enforcing the law has been entirely lost
sight of: and for the reason that when we nave
requested the people of Sagadahoc to name Two
persons who would be capable of enforcing the
law and faithful and efficient in doing so, we have
received no compliance with our request. hard
ly know what course the Council may now take
in regard to the matter but desire to say IN our
behalf, that we are very anxious that the 1rlendS
of temperance may name two efficient men, and
when that shall have sheen done l will appoint
them. and have no doubt the Council VIII con-
firm the nominations. That to my mind, and
think it should be to the great public throughout
the State who are looking at this matter, is the
only question with which we have to deal AS L
said before. we have been severely criticised as
being in the interest Of rum. do not think there
is any member of my Council who has any such
interest. They have felt anxious and do today, TO
do their duty in this matter, and all we ask OF the
temperance people OF Bath and Sagadahoc county
is to name two men who will enforce that law,
and those men shall be appointed, confirmed and
put Immediately on duty.

DELIBERATE MURDER.
A Providence, r. l., Gambler Shoots
His Wife on the Street.
The Victim a Native of wateryIlIe,
Maine.

PROVIDENCE, Dec. 1.-At ten minutes of
this evening, Geo. B. Chase, a gambler, de-
liberately murdered his wife ON the sidewalk
in front of her lodging house, corner of Nor
folk and High streets. Chase formerly lived
in Woonsocket, where he had twice attempt
ed to take his own life. His wife, from
whom he had separated Nillie NJ. Chase,
alias Taylor, a native Of Waterville, Me-,
had found employment as a weaver in one of
the Atlantic Company's mills, in Olneyville.
When the operatives were dismissed, at $50,
Mrs. Chase went home, accompanied by an
other woman who lived in the same house.
At the street door the two parted, Mrs. Chase
to go to a store to make some purchases. Be
fore entering the house. the other woman
found a man concealed behind the street
door, who pushed her aside, and drawing a
revolver, fired number of shots at Mrs.
Chase, who had not left the lower step, and
who sank dead where she stood. Several
persons saw the act, but were apparently
dazed, as they allowed the murderer to leis-
urely walk up the street and escape.
Chase was arrested about II O'Clock this
evening, as he was about to take the train
from Valley Falls for Woonsocket, and he
will be brought to this city

WASHINGTON.
The Presidency OF the Senate.

The Presidency OF the Senate.
Especial to the PREss.l
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The principal topics
of comment here still is the death of the
Vice President and his probable successor to
preside over the Senate. The general senti-
ment among Republicans is, L think, largely
in favor of the election of Gen. Logan
While it is not claimed that he is the equal Of
Edmunds as parliamentarian or that he has
the legislative experience of Sherman, it is
urged that his loss of the chairmanship of
the committee on military affairs during the
interregnum occurring just previous to his
last election to the Senate, and the fact that
he was the Republican candidate for Vice
President entitle him to the nomination of
the Republican caucus. These, added to his
heroic army service, his superior good sense
and sterling integrity make out claim which
it is difficult to ignore. During the last cam
paign, when his old comrades surrounded
his boarding house and, with unmistakable
zeal, insisted that the ticket was perfect
double ender, itJyas evidenced to me that
Logan had a strong hold on the soldiers On
that occasion many stories of his army life
were rehearsed, and, in answer to the charge
of Logan's being no grammarian. several
Illustrations of his strong and forcible Ian
guage on the eve and in the heat Of battle
were given and wildly cheered by the inn
mense gathering. One of the speakers, l
think Congressman Pettibone OF Tennessee,
gave very vivid description of prepara-
tion for battle-when there was some con
fusion and skirmishing for postion-and
said that "Black jack" as the boys knew
him. when asked where he was to be placed,
replied che did not give a d-n SO be it
that he got into the fight right away.

Burglary at Anson.

The house of Mr.. II. Gilman, of Anson,
was entered by burglars or tramps last Sun
day evening while the family were at meet
ing, and searched with matches which were
found partially burned in different parts of
the house, and the house was set on fire in

the clothing was burned and some stolen.

1t was a narrow escape from the burning Of
all the buildings.

BANGOR, Dec. Ed Whitney, of Lincoln
"a years of age, employed in stable in that
place, married, about three weeks ago, a
young woman named Lauretta Clark, aged
about IS, who will be remembered by those
conyersant with the Stacyville murder trial,
which took place last February, as the young
woman who was the cause of the homicide
for which the murderer, who was convicted
of manslaughter, is now serving sentence
of one year in the State prison.
Your reporter is unable to learn the COM
mencement of the difficulty between Whit
ney and his wife, but it is ascribed to jeal-
ousy. Itappears that some time Monday af-
ternoon Mrs Whitney, with a girl about the
same age, whose name could not be obtained
but who is said to have also been connected
with the Stacyyille affair, left Lincoln and
walked to Enfield, where they arrived about
8 o'clock in the evening, and stopped all
night, saying they were ON their way from
Houlton to Hallowell. This morning they
did not proceed, for the reason, as stated,
that it was too cold. About o'clock this af-
ternoon the two girls went out for walk,
and while out they were met by Whitney,
who had walked down the track from Lin
coin, and he asked them to walk with him,
to which they consented, and went down tie
track as far as the gravel pit, about so rods
below where the main highway crosses the
railroad Here they had some talk, which
resulted in Mrs. Whitney telling her husband
that she wouldnot live with him another day
Upon this, he drew a revolver, 23-calibre
five-shooter, and fred three shots at her, one
striking her in the body, another in the back
of the neck, and the third missing. He then
placed the revolver against, his own heart,
and, discharging it, fell dead outside the
rails, still clutching the deadly weapon. His
wife fell between the rails, badly wounded,
but not sufficiently SO, it is believed, as to
cause death. The screams of the girl brought
assistance, and the wounded woman and
dead man were carried into the nearest house
and doctor and coroner sent for. Whitney,
as before stated belongs in Lincoln. where
his father and brothers reside.

have been ordered out by the executive board of
the Lynn Lasters Union in order t. assist those

TROUBLE AMONG MINERS.
A Dangerous State OF Affairs in
Missouri.

MACON, Mo-, Dec. There was firing of pistols
and guns between the black and white miners at
the Beyier coal mines all last night, but without
serious injury to any one. So far as can be
learned four men have been killed since Saturday
iast-three negroes and one white-besides sew
eral wounded The feeling is still unabated and
there is constant liability of bfoodshed. The
negro miners remain inside OF the stockade at the
mine and fire at all white miners who come in
range of their guns, and every man and boy at the
mine who is able to handle gun is said to be
armed.
ST. LOUIS, Dec. LIN consequence OF the OUT
break at the Bevier mines, near Macon, Mo-, on
SATURDAY. last, Gov. Marmaduke has ordered the
First Regiment of the State Guard to proceed to
the scene and about 400 men of that command
will leave at once for the mines to preserve order
and protect the miners at work.
