MAINE LUMBER DRIVES.
Prospect That the Moosehead Lake Cuts
VIII Reach Market,

GREENvILLE, Me-, June 1S.-The pros
poets for the lumbermen around Moose
head lake are much less discouraging than
they were iew weeks ago. Although the
spring has been very dry, still compara-
lively few los will be hung up. The
Roach river drive of 13,OOO,O 900 feet. under
the charge of W. l.. Rogers, came into the
lake last week and have been turned into
the Kennebec, not a log remaining be-
hind. IL is expected that about one-half
of the Moose river drive of $4,000, 900 feet
will be gotten into the lake during the
next week.
In the Kennebec the logs are moving
slowly, and although the "head" in
Moosehead lake is two feet less than
usual the contractors hope to work them
through.
Fourteen miles of Dead river is jammed
full OF logs, amounting to over 90 900, 600
feet, which, unless there are unusually
heavy freshets in the fall, will remain
there till next spring.
The logs in the Penobscot river are still
running, with only few hundred thousand
feet hung up on Seboomuck Falls and
other hard places. Thirty million have
passed through Chesuncook lake.

BIDDEFORD, Me-, June 16.-The cele-
brated Saco poisoning case, which has
Jeen on trial three days in the York
county supreme court at Alfred, ended in
the acquittal of the respondent, Living L.
Hill of Boston. Hill was charged with
sending his wife a poisoned ham. The
chiefpoint upon which the prosecution
was based v'as the analysis made by Pro-
fessor Wood of the Harvard medical
school, who found traces of arsenic in
Mrs. Hill's urine.
1t was brought out that the relations
between Mr. aud Mrs. Hill were not varT
congenal, aid that he had offered to give
her $500 to get divorce from him, Eight
witnesses testified for the defendapt, evil
dence being introduced to show that Hill
sent the ham in the same barrel with
other meats and vegetables, and shipped
them to Amos Libby, North Saco, with
instructions to divide them with Mrs.
Hill, but none of the packages were
marked with the name of the recipient.
The evidence of the prosecution that de-
tectives found a bottle of Fowler's solu-
tion of arsenic on table in Mrs Bunnell's
house in Boston, where Hill boarded, was
met by Mrs Bunnell's deposition in
which she declared that the bottle was
hers. DR.. Davenport gave expert testimony
arsenical poisoning, and Profes-
sor Robinson testified that in the analysis
of Mrs. Hill's urine, sent to him, no trace
of arsenic was found. The defense intro
duced testimony tending TO show that
Mrs. Hill's sickness might have been due
to arsenic in the wall paper in her room,
or in colored quilt on her bed.
