A TIMELY INQUIRY.
Mr.. Hale Wants to Know Something
of the Effect of Free Trade.

WASHINGTON, June 27.-In the Senate
today, the House amendments to the
Senate bill relating to the Circuit Court
of Appeals, were non-concurred in and a
conference was asked
Mr.. Hale offered the following pream-
BILE and resolution, and said he would
call it up tomorrow:
Whereas, AT no time has so large proper
tion of the American people been employed at
so high wages and purchasing the necessities
and comforts of life at so low prices as in the
year 1892, and,
so large in favor of the United States as in the
last year, and,
Whereas, That these conditions exist is large
lly due to the Republican policy of protection;
Resolved That the committee on finance be.
and hereby is directed to inquire into the effect
OF pOncy OF tariff for revenue only" upon
the labor and industries of the United States
and report on the same to the Senate.
Mr.. Cockrell suggested that the reso-
luton be called up tomorrow for the pur-
pose of allowing Mr.. Hale to make some
remarks upon it, but not for action. The
suggestion was tacitly assented to.
Mr.. Stewart offered substitute for
the free silver coinage bill, the substi-
trte providing that the owner of silver
bullion may deposit the same at any mint
of the United States to be coined for his
benfit, the coins to be legal tender for all
debts and dues, public and private. For
eign silver coin or bullion derived from
it by melting are excluded and the silver
act of 1890 repealed. The substitute

SENATOR TELLER TALKS.
Silver Men, He Says, Like Neither CIeve.
land Nor Harrison.

NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, July 27.-United
States Senator Teller of Colorado, is in
the city attending the commencement
exercises at Yale. He talked quite freely
with reporter this afternoon of the po-
Htical situation and general financial out
look. The two great parties, he thought,
were so nearly alike on the silver ques-
tion that it was difficult to choose be-
tween them, and he added: 'sIn both
cases, the candidates are worse than the
platforms. He said further that Blaine
would have been more acceptable to the
silver men than Harrison. The Demo-
Gratis of the silver states would have pre-
ferred any one to Cleveland. The atti-
tude of the two old parties on this ques-
ton would greatly strengthen the Ali
ance. Ii the anti-silver men succeed in
their projects the country, Mr.. Teller de-
clared, will be overwhelmed by greater
financial disasters than any it has yet
known. The silver men believe the re-
habilitation of silver would give an era
of prosperity. Senator Teller said,
while it is true that both parties are
nearly alike on this question, Harrison is
n0tso Objectionable to the silver men as
Cleveland, who is pronounced anti-sil-
yer man. We have nothing to hope from
him. His policy while in the White
House was in the interest of the few of
the credit class. There is every reason
to suppose he will follow the same poll
cy if elected again.

Judge Gresham Not a Candidate.

NEW YORK, June PA special from
Lick Springs, Ind, says that Judge Wal
ter Q. Gresham will not be the standard
bearer of the Peoples party. In an in
terview yesterday he said: "I have no
right to assume that the honor will be
rendered me, but will say my name will
not go before the convention with nv
consent" Regarding the Peoples party
platform the judge said he believed in a
large portion of it but not in the sub
treasury scheme. He believed the prin-
ciples of the Third party would take
hold of the masses and that it was the
party of the future.
Montana for Harrison.
ST. PAUL, Mimi, June 27.-Thomas
H. Carter of Montana, commissioner of
the General Land Office, passed through
st, Paul yesterday en- route for Washing
ton. Speaking of the situation in Mon
tana he said: Montana will give Re-
publican majority of over 5000 votes.
The Democratic platform, with Mr..
Cleveland as candidate, not only de-
stroys all hope of free coinage, in which
Montana is greatly interested, but is like
wise direct menace to the existing laws
under which 4, 100000 ounces of the sill
yer of the country are purchased each
month by the government. If the Mon
tana men cannot receive free coinage,
they can at least most emphatically re-
pudiate the man and the platform
pledged to take the back track on the
silver question. Mr.. Cleveland is the
most unpopular candidate that could
have been nominated so far as Montana
is concerned"

John Bun Drives a Sharp Trad,
A Mystery of the Sea,

New YORK, June 27.-It is thought in
shipping circles that the freight steamer
Italy may be the vessel which was in
collision with the ship Fred B. Taylor.
The Italy sailed from Liverpool June IA,
and no tidings of her have been received
in this city since. The steamer Catsnia
is also long overdue. She sailed from
Rio Janeiro May 81, and has not since
been heard from. The Vandura, of
Yarmouth, N. S., is another overdue YES

The steamship Vega, at first supposed
to have been in collision with the Taylor,

MAIDEN, Mass, June 27.-At the Lin
den station, in this city, on the Boston &
Maine railroad, at about $50 tonight, the
engine Bangor was pushing empty cars
on switch, when suddenly train 1O1,
drawn by engine Montserrat, which left
Boston at 5.55, approached at high rate
of speed. The train runs express through
Linden and crashed into the engine Ban
gor about midway. Both engines were
wrecked, the Montserrats boiler explod-
ing. Freeman Smith, engineer on train
1O1, was badly burned burned by the
steam and badly bruised about the body.
John Waterman, fireman, was badly cut
about the head and body. There were
four cars on train 101 and the first two
cars were badly wrecked, every window
being broken. The passengers, about so
in number, received severe shock and
several were cut by flying glass and splin.
ters. The cars were thrown from the
track and dragged about 200 feet. All
escaped with very slight injuries except
the engineer and fireman. The engineer
and fireman of the Bangor escaped with
slight bruises. The cause of the accident
was the negligence of the conductor of
the train drawn by the Bangor to send
f1agman to hold the express. The loss to
the railroad company is about $4,000.
1.-THE train which leaves Boston at 555
p. m. does not run through to this city
and so it is probable no Portland people
were among the passengers.l

KNOX DEMOCRATS.
Their Convention Seems Likely To Be

Their Convention Seems Likely To Be
Brief and spiritIess.
Especial to the Press.l
RocKLAND, June 27.-The Democrats
of Knox county hold their convention at
the court house in this city next Satur-
day.
Judging from the limited number of
candidates now in the field it will be a
brief and spiritless affair.
For senator the name of j. G. Levensa-
Ter of Thomaston is mentioned, but it is
doubtful if he would accept the nomina-
tion.
Another candidate and the one likely
to be chosen is Owen p. Lyons of Vinal-
haven, a granite cutter. Mr.. Lyons's S
probable strength in the granite districts
would be responsible for this act.
The present senators, and it will be
borne in mind that Knox county is to
hereafter have but one, Neven G. Mehan
of Thomaston and Captain j. H. Sher-
man ,are not candidates for renomina-
ton.
For clerk of courts L. Frederick Star
rett, who for many years has been lead
ing Democrat, will be nominated by ac-
clamation. Mr.. Starrett has served two
terms previously. Four years ago he
was candidate for reelection, being de-
feated by the present Republican incum-
bent, Ralph R. Ulmer, ESQ.
The retiring county commissioner,
Captain c. A. Sylvester of this city, who
has served very efficiently as chairman
of the board, is not a candidate for re-
nomination.
George W. Payson of Union and Frank
lin Trussell of ST. George, both of whom
have previously served as commissioners,
are in the field. The former was a can
didate two years ago, being defeated by
Captain H. J. Sleeper, the Republican
candidate. Mr.. Trussell was before the
convention four years ago, and though
renominated by his party suffered defeat
at the hands of the Republican candidate,
Mark Ames of South Thomaston.
The contest over county attorney is ex-
pected to be particularly interesting.

THE RUSSIAN FLAG WENT UP,
Another Little Incident Which Will Bring
the War Cloud Out.

BERLIN, June 27.-It has long been the
custom of ships entering the port of Lu-
bee to fly the German flag out of compli-
ment to the German Empire. The Rus
slams have had some reason in believing
of late that the motive for this courtesy
in case of vessels from the Grand Duchy
of Finland, which is part of the Russian
Empire, was not always merely one of
compliment, and that the Firms wished
the Germans to understand that they
preferred Germany to Russia. Yester-
day, therefore, the Russian consul at gu-
bee boarded the Finnish steamer Hebo,
as it was entering the port with the Ger
man flag flying, and demanded that the
captain lower the German colors and run
up the Russian in their place. The Fin
nish captain of the Hebo demurred, say
ing it would look like an insult on his
part to the German authorities. The
Russian consul thereupon threatened
that, unless the captain complied, he
would be punished on his return to Rus
sian jurisdiction. The captain conclud-
ed to obey, and the German flag came
down and the Russian went up in it's
place.

The State Board of HeaIth's Efforts to

Especial to the Press. I

Especial TO bne freSS.
AUGUSTA, June 27-The State Board
Health held its quarterly meeting at the
Capitol today.
The reports of various committees
were submitted, and among them that of
the committee appointed last spring to
urge the appropriation of $500 for the
world fair, to enable the board to dem
onstrate the advantages in health, and
from all hygienic points of view that the
state of Maine affords as great summer
resort. The report is practically as fol
lows:
In view of the fact of the great rev.
enue accruing to our state through it's
physical features and attractions which
may make it more and more famous as a
summer resort, we have felt it our duty
to point out the necessity of publishing
generously statements of the conditions
favorable to health as they exist in our
state and an account of the regulations
that we maintain in order to have every
safeguard that careful study of sanitary
problems affords thrown around the peo-
pie who do now and may be induced in
the near future to visit us, We regret
that we have been unable to secure the
appropriation necessary for this pur-
pose, because we feel that it is an op-
portunity that the state cannot afford to
lose.
We feel that there is no interest more
vital to the state than that of it's sum
mer resorts, and that il would be wise
and effective measure to inform the
great public at large, through our exhib-
its at the Worlds Fair that we not only
have section of this country in our
keeping, incomparably fine in atmos-
phere, water, natural scenery, and all
beauties of shore and mountains, but
that we also have an alert. progressive
and well informed board of health,
ready to guard these treasures and rem
der them available for the summer visit
or, be he wealthy and simply bent upon
pleasure, or invalided and in search of
health.
Your committee were referred to a
book to be gotten out under the auspices
of the executive committee. advertising
Maine in it's general industries and as a
place OF summer resort; but the cost of
few pages of space would amount to
several hundred dollars, and this sugges-
ton was negatived as not in any way
meeting our needs, even had we the
funds required for the expenditure.
We feel that we have done our duty,
and that if we are not given fitting repre-
sentation at the Worlds Fair, the re-
sponsibility lies at other doors than that
of our board of health committee.

I he two candidates who are seeking the
nomina ton are Lindley M. Staples of
Washington and Bradford K. Kalloch of
this city.
sg Mr. Staples is well known throughout
the state as a shrewd criminal lawyer
and politician. Two years ago he was
the Democratic candidate for county at
torney, being defeated by Washington
r. Prescott, the present Republican in
cumbent, and who will be renominated
by acclamation. Disappointed also in
his congressional aspirations, Mr. Staples
is however undaunted, and as his party S
candidate for county attorney, will once
more tempt fate.
Mr. Kallock, who was the unsuccess-
full candidate for nomination two years
ago. is the present chairman of the Dem
ocratic city committee, and thus srength-
ened, will make another attempt.
For sheriff, ]. W. Gray of this city, the
present incumbent, will be renominated
by acclamation. He will probably carry
Vinalhaven, his old home, without
trouble, but it is extremely doubtful if
the Prohibition element will favor
him.
Charles K. Miller, Camden's tax-col-
lector, and the unfailing candidate of his
party, will again be put on the ticket, as
the candidate for judge of probate. The
nomination of either of the two Republi-
can candidates in the field, means death
to his hopes, however.
1t is expected that an attempt will be
made to endorse for county treasurer
Alvah B. Clark of this city. Mr.. Clark
is the present incumbent. He was NOM
mated two years ago by the Prohibition
lists and endorsed by the Democrats. At
present he is chairman of the Prohibi-
ton city committee and has already
been nominated by both the Prohibition
and Peoples parties.
l.. W. Benner, an active and aggres-
sive young Rockland Democrat, is in the
field, however, and, as there has been
an openly expressed determination in
certain influential quarters that none but
a thoroughbred Democrat be put on the
ticket. he will make a strong bid for the
nomination
