THE New Haven News, whose facilities for obtaining thoroughly unreliable and fshy "news' are unequaled, publishes long story of breach in the democratic ranks brought out at the meeting or the state committee, and also hints that Presl- dent Cleveland and William H. Barnum are no longer friends. News young man with probably more ambition than brains secured the big ''scoop" on all the other state papers, by an alleged interview with prominent democrat. Let us see. About two months ago the News published an in view with professor who had just return ed from Washington, ,Sand who had been informed that Connecticut was of no i'm portance in the election of a president, and that her vote was not needed or wanted by the democratic party. After several days of palavering the News crawled into a small hole and pulled in it's story. History has been known to repeat itself.

RHODE ISLAND ELECTION.

The Rhode Island democrats did not elect their state ticket yesterday, but the republicans with the aid of large sums of money elected their ticket by only 1900 majority. Saloons were running full blast and the polls were surrounded by drunken loafers who were waiting to sbe bought by the republicans. In the Tenth ward in Providence Steve McMaugh, notorious saloon keeper and wire puller, whose liquors have never been confscated by re- publican officials, led his drunken gang up to the polls to vote for Taft, the republi- can candidate for governor, paying from $5 to $15 for a vote. In the First ward five men were taken to the polls one after another. They were too drunk to stand alone, but their votes were cast by the heelers and they were carried from the field. The details of the election are most disgusting. Money and rum was poured out as it never has been since the famous Sprague election of 1860.
 The republicans secure control of the legislature, assuring the return of repub 1iCdll CO UlC oOdU III GIl0 u llICu OCdCoS sell ate now occupied by Jonathan Chace. The constitutional amendment extending the suffrage is no doubt defeated, although it probably received majority vote It takes three-ffths vote to secure it's adop- tion, and the vote indicates the fear the republicans have of the democracy If thousands of men were not deprived of their right to vote the republicans could not pour money enough into the state to elect their ticket. The election, however, has served to show to what debasng methods the republican party will resort to to secure control of the state govern ment

CLEvELAND's message did not settle his case as far as Oregon was concerned after all. It was boasted some time ago by some of his enemies that his message would cost him the support of the demo- cratic national convention. How near they were right no one could truthfully say uutil yesterday, when the state con- vention of Oregon ''earnestly and unquali fedly'' commended the revenue policy of the President stated in his last annual message. The delegates were nearly all Cleveland men, and were in effect in structed to vote for his re-nomination Let the next unbeliever stand up to be knocked out.

THE last hope of Maxwell, the notorious hang. The case all through has been one of the most interesting in the criminal records of recent years. Maxwell seems to have been an exceptional fool. As soon as Preller was dead he began to babble and to conduct himself in a manner which led to his arrest. He immediately got drnnk and proceeded to give himself away. He first asked waiter in hotel if a man acquittal in St. Louis. He betrayed him. self to a barber who cut off his whiskers. Finally he took detective into his con- fidence, who was placed in cell adjoining his in the jail, to whom he recited the story of the murder with all it's cold blooded details ''Murder will out" said Daniel Webster in great murder case, and as rule this is true. Maxwell told a nice little story to the jury, admitting that he killed his friend Preller, but claim ing that it was by accident, ill administer ing an overdose of chloroform. Being an Englishman, and ignorant of the laws of this country, he gave as his reason for packing the body in trunk. For two years the relatives and friends of the miserable man have been trying to save his life The refusal of the supreme court to interfere in the case has settled the fate of Maxwell, and unless the Cover
