MAINE DISPATCHES.
THE CABOT MILL CLOSED
brunswick Girls Decide to Have Better
"ases-A Few Carders Force the
whole Mill to Shut Down,

BRUNSWICK, March l3.
Ane trouble which has been brewing in the
CABOT mill for some time eliminated las,
night when the doors of the mill were closed
on about 100 hands. About wear ago the
girls employed in the card room received N
hahK' but were cut down to % cents. Las
week the price was raised to 81 cents a hank.
but the employees want the full 10 cents
formerly received. The agent thought tha,
Dy adding speed to the machinery they would
be able to make up the quarter of a cent.
ABOUT thirty girls, together with few of the
BACK boys are among the number who ask
Tor the old wages. A girl will average seven
or eight hanks day and the difference is
out few cents on days work. They wen,
out Friday noon and yesterday morning held
consultation with Mr.. Green, agent of the
mill. But he informed them that he had re-
stored the last cut down in the mill all around
and could not and would not grant them the
advance asked for. They returned to their
homes refusing to work.
Mr.. Green says that he is paying them all
he can possible afford, and further states that
tor the past three years tine mill has lost
money and besides losing the ware and tare
of the machinery, the interest on the invested
capital, several thousand dollars have been
sunk. The cotton mills throughout the State,
he says, are losing money, and are paying
their help all they can afford. But the card
room employees were resolved, and as one
room is dependent on the other in a cotton
MILL the whole establishment was forced to
close Its doors.
But little interest is manifested in the re-
suit among the town people, and the Knights
of Labor are said to have nothing whatever
to do with the matter. About four years ago
similar trouble occurred at this mill and
the mill was shut down two days and half,
the agent granting the rise.

WASHINGTON NEWS.
The Business Laid Out for Congress the
Coming Week.

WASHINGTON, March A.
The most important morning hour business
in the Senate during the week is likely to be
the bill to quit the titles of settlers living on
Des Moines river lands over the Presidents
count bill. AT two o'clock each day the ju-
dietary committees resolution will be taken.
There is no doubt that the Indian appropria-
ton bill will pass the House, The next APP
preparation bill on the calendar, which is the
post office appropriation bill, is likely to
give rise to much discussion and to consume
the remainder of the week exclusive of the
morning hours. After the call of the States
tomorrow for the introduction of bills and
resolutions the speaker will call the COM
mittees in their order for motions to suspend
the rules. None of the committees will have
an opportunity to offer till the committee on
banking and currency is reached. That COM
mittee will move to suspend the rules and
pass the bill to provide for the change
of location and the increase of the
capital stock of National banks. When the
committe, on coinage, weights and measures
is called Chairman Bland will offer reso-
luton to fix day for the consideration of
the silver question. If the committee on
commerce, which is next on the list, is
reached, Mr.. Reagan. under instructions
from the committee, will ask day to be
fixed for the consideration of the interstate
commerce bill. When the labor committee
is called resolution will be offered to fix a
day for the discussion of the eight hour bill.

ONLY TWO SHOTS FIRED.
One Bullet Killed Young WOman-The
Other Fails to Infiict Fatal Wound.
Sr. LorIs. March |.

ST. Louis, March IL.
A dispatch from Hot Springs, Ark, says
A terrible tragedy was enacted here this
morning. George ID. Williams, clerk of the
Sumpter Hotel, shot and killed Mrs. Norris,
guest Of the house, and attempted to kill
himself. 1t is alleged that an undue intimacy
has for some time existed between Williams
and Mrs Norris, who was quite young and a
very fascinating woman. Her alleged hus-
band, sporting man, aims to have discov-
cred Williams last night in his wife. apart
ments, and the matter became public through
a disturbance which occurred. Williams is
young, very popular in society, and no stain
on his character had ever before existed. He
was so humiliated and crushed over the affair
that he ended the life Of the unfortunate
woman and ruined his own. He used a Xxx
revolver, firing only two shots, one of which
penetrated the heart of his victim, and the
other he fred into his own head, just above
the right temple, which, however, only frac-
tured the skull, and passed out without in
ficting fatal wound. Williams is now in
prison, and the sad affair has created great
excitement here.

New YORK, March IA.

NEW ORK, Marcn H.

steamer Oregon was run into by schooner
between 9 and A. NJ, east of Fire Island,
having two holes in her. She commenced

transferred to a pilot boat and part to the
schooner, and it is believed they were all
subsequently transferred to the steamer
Fulda. There is over 800 passengers and
crew of the Oregon alone on the steamer
Fulda. The Oregon was entirely abandoned.
She sunk at p. NJ. today.
The German steamship Fulda, Capt.

order to take up the passengers and crew of
the Oregon, and anchored at the bar of
Sandy Hook on account of low water at
6.25 p. NJ. the same day. The saved of the
Oregon are 1876 first cabin, &C second cabin,
and 359 steerage passengers and POS of the
crew, making 896 souls in all.

TWELVE PASSENGeRs xNI,prn
ny collision of a Freight and Horse
Car at New Haven.

New HAVEN. CT, March Is.
"ross carelessness, generally attributed tc
the negligence of the fiagman, caused a bad
accident this afternoon on Meadow street
where the tracks of the West Haven horse
railroad cross OF the New Haven & DERBY
steam railroad. by which a horse car wa.
completely wrecked and IL persons were
more or less injured. That any of them
escaped alive caused great surprise to those
VINO witnessed the accident. freight ca,
was being switched down the ward, but ow.
ing to an obstruction was not seen by the
orlver OF the car until his horses were on the
crossing. The freight car was then so neal
the driver realized that it was useless to try
TO stop, and that escape lay in the bare posi-.
olllty OF his getting across. He struck his
horses sharp cut with his whip, but at al
most the same instant the freight car crashed
through the side of the street car as if i,
were pasteboard, threw the passengers into a
heap on the fioor overturned it, and in spite
OF all Efforts on the part Of the brakeman and
engineer to stop their train. rolled it along
the track for so feet until it brought up
against an empty passenger car on another
track and was crushed into kindllng wood.
Those who saw the collision rushed to the
spot expecting that all had been killed out
right, but to their astoDishment only one,
Miss Emma Ford, was seriously hurt. The
unfortunate passengers were quickly extri-
Gated and sent to their homes or taken to the
Woolsey House near by. The names of the
injured and the extent of their injuries are as
follows:
Miss Emma Ford of Westfield, Mass, head
and hands cut, injured internally, uncon-
scious when removed and taken to the resi-
dence of relatives.
Capt. II. w. Pierepont, quartermaste--
general G. A. r. of Fair Haven, leg crushed
and hand cut.
W. E. Morgan, freight agent, Consolidated
road, New Haven, right arm badly injured.
cut about the body.
L. F. Guernsey and son Clifford of Cheshire,
both badly shaken up and bruised
Edward Payne of Cheshire, generally
shaken up, cut and bruised.
Conductor Kidder of West Haven, flesh
wound on head and badly cut on leg.
A lady and little girl (unknown), both
bruised about their heads and chests.
Two old gentlemen, both unknown, had
their faces cut.
The driver was pulled over the dashboard
when the horses broke from the car, and
escaped unnjured.
Policeman Benjamin Jackson, who is sta
toned at the Derby depot, and several others
who saw the impending danger too late to
prevent it, say that the hagman, Francis
Holdwrght, was not at his post, while the
latter persistently maintains that he was, and
that the driver paid no heed to his flag. There
are gates at the crossing, but they are seldom
used.

CHINESE TROUBLES.
An Attempt to Blow Up Wash House
An Assault on Military Officer.

PORTLAND, Ore, March 13.
Yesterday an attempt was made to blow up
a Chinese wash house at the corner of Third
and F streets with giant powder cartridges.
The perpetrators evidently knew little of the
use of dynamite, as they placed the explosive
on the porch, which was demolished, but the
main past of the House was uninjured. About
midnight, Col. J. X. Phillips, commander of
the first regiment of State militia, was as
saulted near his residence in East Portland
bv two men. He was knocked down and
robbed, and as he lay on the ground, was
shot. and the bullet passed through his lungs.
The wound will probably be fatal one. Col.
Phillip. has been outspoken concerning the
outrages against the Chinese, and the lead
ers of the mob have threatened his life. There
is great excitement.
