REPUBLICANS ENJOY 1T.
Democratic Soreheads Taking Their
Grievance to Chicago.

Especial tothe Pressl
BANGOR, June 16.-H. S. Hathaway of
Houlton and Henry Hudson Of Guilford
the defeated candidates for the Demo
cratic National Convention in the Fourth
District, have gone to Chicago to contest
their seats. AS there were 367 delegates
in the convention and 337 votes cast and
Hathaway had 129, his chances would
not seem to be very good. Hudson re-
ceived only a few more votes than Hath
away. Everybody here is laughing at
the two men for their pretention. They
are accompanied by S. d. Leavitt, who
was defeated for the nomination for
Congress. The Republicans, of course,
are enjoying the fun of this little episode
in Democratic politics..

GREAT CAPTAIN UNTOUCHED.

But Three People in the Corridors of the
Monument1Were Killed.
CHICAGO, June 16-Three persons were
killed and two seriously injured, and the
Grant monument was slightly damaged
in brief, but fierce, thunder storm here
tonight. Lewis Myers, Mrs. Shelby and
an unknown man were killed. The in
jured are Harry Phillips and Mrs. Hattie
Olsen. The storm began with slight
shower, which rapidly developed into a
small hurricane with heavy rain, vivid
flashes of lightning, and terrific peals of
thunder. There were many people in
Lincoln Park, in which the monument
stands, and 30 persons sought shelter in
the corridors of the monument. When
the storm was at its height, the lightning
struck the monument, taking a course
directly through the little crowd who
had sought safety in it's enclosures.
Everybody except three men were thrown
to the ground. All were uninjured ex-
cept those named. The bolt did not
touch the bronze figure of Grant.
Reports are coming in from various
points Of great damage by cloudbursts
in Wisconsin and Iowa.

The London Telegraph is printing a
series OF interviews with prominent
English merchants, bankers and
manufacturers on the probable effects
of the adoption of the Democratic
tariff policy. The unanimous opinion
is that British manufactures and trade
generally will be immensely benefited.
A leading manufacturer Of velvet and
velveteens in Manchester declares that
the contemplated relaxation of the
American tariff will so stimulate ill.,
dustry that fifty mills will be erected

DE found for thousands of additional
hands, Tho Cleveland victory If
going to be a fine thing for English
men. 1t is with that expectation thai
they SEN over their big contribution
to the Democratic corruption fund.
Every mill which goes up in Old
ham to make goods for the American
market will either shut up a mill now
supplying the goods in this country
or il will prevent the establishment
here of a new mill which otherwise
would go up to supply them. Every
thousand hands set to work there
making goods for this market takes
work away from a thousand in this
country. Even the most modest in
will readily grasp the truth o;
those two simple propositions.
