THE Democratic journals tried the
hardest TO show that the republican
state convention was productive of a
good deal of soreness on the part of
disappointed candidates and their
friends. 1t did not 20 however, and
they gave it up, The convention was
altogether too harmonious to suit those
whose chief reliance for success seems
to be placed upon rows, calamity and
strikes. The manner in which me u
the democratic editors seem to gloat
over general missfortuues, would
almost lead one to think that they

THEY DON'T WORRY.
Defendants in the Fayerweather Case Con-
fident of WinEing.

New YORK, December 13.-Thomas
G. Ritch has not yet prepared his an
swer in the Fayerweather suit. He has
turned the matter over to his law part
ner, ex-Judge Arnoux, who will get it
ready in few days. Mr.. Ritch said yes
terday that there would be no needless
delay.
The defendants profess to feel entirely
easy. They recognize that their fight is
with John B. Reynolds alone, who, the
say, was willing to compromise and
brought suit only after his overtures
were declined No evidence appears in
the complaint that any of the relatives of
the family have Joined him.
Another point which the executors
make is that Mr. Ritch and Mr.. Bulkeley
qnalified as executors some time before
the former litigation ended, and that the
attack upon the will broke down COM
pletely. The will was admitted to pro-
bate February 25, 1891, and the codicils
were admitted by a decree of March "a,

DOVER, N. H., December 13.-Cyrus
Young was arrested here today on
charge of aggravated assault on Carrie
Doty of this city. Miss Doty is confined
to her bed, the result of her
injuries. She claims that some time
ago Young asked her to marry him, but
she refused. Sunday night he took her

Beach, in Maine, he drove into q wood
path, tied his horse, dragged her from
the carriage, and struck her and kicked
her repeatedly. Alter the assault, she
says, he brought her home, and doc
tor called, who found her right arm had
been twisted from his socket aud that
she had received other severe injuries.

edges that he has assaulted her twice
before. He claims that she had been
false to him. Young was taken to
South Berwick, after his arrest, and will
be given a hearing there tomorrow.

TO SECURE FAIR PLAY,
Caucus of Republican Senators to Check
mate Democratic Schemes.

WASHINGTON, December 13.-The Re-
publican members of the Senate today
took the initial steps to checkmate the
Democratic steering committee in
the matter of election of United States
Senators from the so-called doubtful
states.
The caucus to be held tomorrow
was not called as one senator put
the next Senate would be, but to take
such steps as would guarantee, so far as
it was in the power of the members of
the Senate to make such guarantee. the
election of the senator from the Western
States, who was duly entitled to the seat,
regardless of what his affiliations might
be.
''We are opposed to the slurs now be-
ing thrown out by the Democratic COM
mittee." said one of the Western sena-
tors, land have asked at the hands of
Republicans such assistance as will ena-
BILE US to regain our integrity and refute
the charges of attempted theft that have
been put upon u.s.
After the recent conference
in New York statement was
given out by the steering committee
as to the intentions of that organization,
and the Republicans claim that it was a
clearly defined statement that the Demo
Gratis proposed to elect the senators from
Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, California,
Nebraska and Kansas, without regard to
what the complexion of the legislature
was.

OBSTINATE JOHN BULL.


An Indian Delegate Wants Him Enlight-
ened on the Monetary Question.
BRUSSELS, December 13.-At a meet
ing today of the International Monetary
Conference, Sir Guildford d. Houlds-
worth, one of the two delegates repre-
senting the Indian government, protest.
ed against the distractions offered by
the British delegates at this and previ-
GUS conferences. But for the tactics en-
ployed by the representatives of Great
Britain, the currency question would
have been settled long ago. Sir Guild
ford declared that the situation in Great
Britain had greatly changed since Novem-
ber %, the date of the first meeting of
the conference, and he suggested that
the conference adjourn for few weeks
to enable the British government to re-
consider the whole question. He gave
as his reasons for a change in the situa-
ton in Great Britain the statement in
favor of bimetallism by Archbishop
Walsh of Dublin, the resolutions adopt
ed by the agricultural conference held a
few days ago in London, and the petit
tions forwarded to the government by
various chambers of commerce.

PORTLAND THEIR PORT.
Grand Trunk Said To Be Thinking of a
Great Steamship Line.

CHICAGO, December 13.--To counter
act the monopoly sought to be establish
ed by the Canadian Pacific railway by
securing possession of the Intercolonial
railway and the establishment of fast
line of ocean steamers between Halifax
and Europe, the Grand Trunk railway
proposes to inaugurate in the near future
the fastest ocean steamship service in ex-
istence between Portland, Me-, and Eu-
ropean ports,. says a local paper, with
its marine terminus at the eastern coast
and Chicago as it's western terminus
with perfect and cordial understand
ing with all the lines running west and
northwest from Chicago.
1t is believed that the Grand Trunk
can established steamship line between
the United States and Europeau points
that will be of equal, if not superior,
value to the American public compared
with that promoted by its Canadian
rival.
Taking Montreal as a common point,
the distance thence to Portland is 397
miles. The distance from Montreal think
the State of Maine via the Canadian Pa
cific to Halifax, is 756 miles, and the In
tercolonial SAT miles. AS regards New
York and other eastern traffic the West
Shore, Lehigh Valley, Erie, Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western AID other
trunk lines terminating at Buffalo, use
the Grand Trunk as an outlet to Chicago.
The distance by sea from Halifax to
Liverpool is about 2,TS5 miles, showing
difference of 297 miles in favor of Hall
fax as against Portland, but this differ,
ence in. distance is offset by the increased
land mileage to that point.
During the winter season the Grand
Trunk has everything in its favor. Few,
if any, delays will take place from
climatic causes by the Portland route,
while the route to Halifax presents diff
culties which do not occur in the other
case.

IMMIGRATION AND THE FAIR.
Secretary Foster Talks of the Action OF
Z the Steamship Lines.

New YORK, December ia Sun
special from Washington says that the
announcement by cable dispatches that
the North Atlantic Steamship Associa.
tion, at it's meeting in London, has de-
cided to carry no steerage passengers
after January /, to reduce its number
of sailings, to raise passenger rates, and
to withdraw excursion rates to the
Worlds Fair, has created great interest
in Washington, especially among the
officia of the Treasury Department and
in Congress, where there appears to be
an almost unanimous sentiment in favor
of the temporary total exclusion of inn
migration. The Western Congressman
and others particularly Interested in the
success of the Worlds Fair are alarmed
at the action of the steamship compan-
les in deciding to make no reduced rates
for the fair visitors, and do not hesitate
to express the opinion that the new or
der viii be serious blow to the exposi-
ton.
Secretary ofsthe Treasury Foster was
somewhat suIpli sed last night when re-
porter informed him of the action of the
steamship companies. He said that it
was the first information on this subject
he had received, and he was not prepared
to say whether it was intended to induce
the-government to modify the existing
immigrant regulations. He did not
blame the steamship companies for look
ing out for their own interests, but it
was his duty to take care of the inter-
ests of the American people. One case
of cholera on board of one of the immi-
grant-carrying ships would seriously in
terfere with the transportation of passen-
gers to the Worlds Fair.
