it peculiarly desirable point for the mer I,

an ever flowing stream, wash the northern

country abounds in splendid building stone
and magnificent woodland. while the Colo
RADIO and Elm Creek afford an abundance of

The phenomenal growth Of Abilene, Colo

joyed the trade of this section in the past, is
convincing proof that Balhnger, as the

Especial to the Kennebec journal I

Especial 10 the kennebec Journal
WArERvrLLE, Sept. 8
Quite serious accident happened at Ben
'cn' TWO miles above here, about 2.45 this
afternoon The freight train which lett Ban
gor at noon, consisting of ten cars, was com.
pietely wrecked and one man seriou,lv in
jured
"orKmen were engaged in repairing the
track just below the Benton station. and had
several rails up. One of the men was sent
BACK to flag the freight and placed the red
nag only eleven telegraph poles back instead
OF eighteen as is required by the rules of the
ROAD. Ihe signal was placed on a curve, at
the mead of very steep grade. The engi-
neer, upon discovering the signal, whistled
down brakes, and every effort was made to
stop the tram, but of no avail. The engine
and tender left the irons, and the cars piled
up on each other, across the track, and in all
directions. The fireman, Charles Clifford.
who had jumped from the tender 10 the train,
nao set three brakes and was in the act of
setting fourth when the ain went off. He
WAS thrown under a car which was filed with
lime, and it was with great difficulty that he
was rescued from his perilous position. DR..
mayer OF Waterville was summoned and,
upon examination, it was found that one arm
was broken and probably internal injuries,
but to what extent could not be ascertained
He was placed on cot and removed to bis
fathers home at Pishon's Ferry.
The first car contained fine black mare
which escaped with a small scratch on the
hind leg. The second car contained Cony G.
Farrars big bay stallion, that had been on
exhibition at the New England Fair,
but fortunately escaped without injury. In
this car were three men, Mr.. Cony's bostler,
Gus. Wood and Michael O'Donnell. All
three men jumped, Woods striking on O'Don-
neps ankle, causing bad sprain. The next
car contained seven head of cattle belonging
to B. Sumner & Son of Woodstock, Conn,
valued at $4,000, and strange to say they
came out without bruise. Between fifteen
and twenty cattle were on the train and all
escaped injury. The remaining cars were
filled with lime. granite and shingles, which
was strewn in all directions. The extent of
damage cannot be estimated at preseut A
wrecking train was sent from Waterville, and
after about eight hours of hard work they
succeeded in clearing the track
The orders were to go across the river to
Fairfield and take train from there to Water
vile. This obliged some five hundred people
to march across the river to Fairfield. Sub
sequently orders were received to go back to
the train at Benton Station.

OF people excluded from all opportunity of
expression at the polls. In this connection
Mr.. Blaine dwelt at some length on the sbso-
lutte necessity of purity and fairness in the
popular government. To destroy the repre-
.entation of any portion of the people to
deny the free exercise of the ballot to those
who are legally entitled to it is TO undermine
the foundations of q free government. and the
longer II Is endured the more is the danger
that the outrage will be repeated and en-
iar2ed. The growth of free states in the
northwest is inimical 10 the interests of the
democratic party. They dread the admission
OF Dakota, and naturally resist. without
reason and without justice. They dread still
more that Gordon of the commonweslths
which stretches away off beyond the Rocky
Mountains and reaches the shores of the
Pacific. Applause.
In these lie the hope and guarantee Of the
future, In these free government and fair
government is planted, republican insttu-
tlons flourish, free labor is honored, the
working man grows independent. Every ell
ement combines to make prosperous and pow
erful communities. But the first one which
presents itself for admission with evidences
of strong republican majority among voters
meets with rebuff at the hands of the demo-
cratic house of representatives Taken in
connection and with the general style of
southern elections this act is full of signif-
cance and looks forward to the continuance
OF that habit of government by minority
which southern mind inherits and which il
instinctively impressed upon the whole demo-
cratic party. Cheers and Applause

MEXICAN OUTRAGES.
A Texan Makes Complaint of Outrage.-
Robbed and Thrown Into Prison.

LAREDO, Tex, Sept. 3.
The facts in the case of another outrage
upon an American by the Mexican authorities
were furnished to the United States secretary
of state, yesterday, and are as follows Feb.
ruary last, one L. c. Schilling, now in this
city, was arrested in Piedras, Mexico, on ex.
tradition papers, he being under bonds to sp-
pear IN Preside county, to stand trial for
assault with intent to murder. While in iail
he was robbed of jewelry and cash to the
amount of several hundred dollars. On re-
turning from Preside county, where he had
stood trial and been acquitted. he demanded
OF the Jailer his money and jewelry, also his
other private property. The officers there
laughed at him and he threated to Law the
matter before the government of Coahuila
Shortly after this he had prepared to start
Saltillo to see the governor and on the
morning of his departure he was standing in
the door of his boarding house when police
man came up behind him and taking Schil-
ling's pistol out Of his. Schiling's, pocket,
shot him three times, the first two balls max
ing slight flesh wounds, the third breaking
his right arm close to the shoulder. Schiling
was then thrown into Jail and received no
medical aid nor as any food given him that
day. Three days later doctor came to the
prison and gave him bottle of carbolic acid
to put on the wound. No communication
was allowed with the prisoner and this doctor
was not permitted to call again. Schillinp
finally applied to the United States consul
but that gentleman said the United States
would not back him up. Schilling then
wrote to government officials at Washington
who referred the matter to Consul Linn with
instruction to see to the case at once. That
gentleman, however, did nothing. Then
through the influence of personal friends and
the American consul at Monterey, Schilling
was released. having been aprisoner for over
two months and being robbed of nearly every
thing he possessed, although some of his Jew
elry was returned. Schilling is of German
birth but has lived in Texas 35 years and
consequently claims American citizenship,
having come to this country when a little
baby.
