tee, telegraphs as the final result of the
Maine election the following to the editor
of The New York Tribune: Official re-
turns from every city town and planta-

will be renominated by reclamation and
eleoled by the largest vote ever thrown
N Maine for United States senator
Our victory, taking it all in all, is the
greatest Republican triumph ever achiev-
ed in Maine.

The Librarian of congress gives the fol-
lowing figures as showing the total official
vote cast for the highest elector in each
state: Cleveland. 4,91O,975; Blaine,
4,845,022; St. John, Isl, 443; Butler,
133, 428. Tn this calculation the Butler
vote N Missouri and West Virginia is
given to Blaine, and the vote of that
party in Iowa, Michigan and Nebraska is
given to Cleveland. Neither candidate
had a majority of the popular vote;
Cleveland's plurality, as shown by the
above figures, was $685.

VERMONT.

The complete returns from the late
Vermont election show that the total
vote of the state was IS, 479. Republican
majority. 1873; Republican plurality
over the Democrats, 20,5S0. The third

The new legislature stands: Republic

the least peradventure. In fact, be will
probably have no opposition whatever in

THREE CENTS PER MILE.

Manager Miller, of the Chicago, Mil
waukee & St Paul Railway company,
yesterday issued formal order directing
a new passenger tariff for all local points
in Wisconsin upon the basis OF 8 cents
per mile, reduction of Is per cent from
the present prevailing rate for such tick
cts. This step has been in contemplation
by Manager Miller for some time, but its
consummatian has been delayed until
now, when it might be carried into eff
feet with as little friction as possible.
The new tariff will go into effect not later
than Oct. is. and possibly at an earlier
date, depending upon the time it will
take to arrange the new tariff, work OF
considerable magnitude. The managers
order was received by the passengers de-
partment yesterday afternoon, and work
thereon will be promptly inaugurated.
Assistant General Passenger Agent
Merrill said yesterday that the reduction
was purely matter OF business policy,
which the company believed would iHure
to its benefit. 1t was not, he said, an az.
gressive movement. No war of rates
with other companies had been contem-
plated. The St. Paul company was es-
sertially Wisconsin institution, and
identified with its interests and its needs.
Its directors believed that this concession
to the public will meet with proper APP
probation, and that an increased passen-
ger traffic will compensate for the reduc-
ton in the rate. The main point, how
ever, has been the fact that for some
years tn rate in Illinois and Iowa has
been cents per mile, and it was an uu-
fair discrimination to exact 4 cents in
Wisconsin-Sentinel. 18Th inst.

A well-kuown farmer Of Amelia county,

Of the week, wearing. as was his custom,
an eXtremely.laIge white felt bar. The hat
was OF the finest texture, and had been
made to order by Dunlap, the New YORK
halter. II was fully as large, II not larger,
than the famous Mexican sombrero, and
attracted attention wherever seen. On
Wednesday night the Amelia farmer was III

COCO persons per hour. II he did his
