The Madison Mills.

/ At Oakland Thursday occurred the
meeting of the directors and stockhold.
ers of the Madison wooden mill.
The general sentiment was in favor OF
shutting down the mill for time. until
the condition of affairs may be thorough.
ly investigated and this will undoubted.
ly be done at once. In the meantime.
the goods now manufactured will he
sold at auction or otherwise and the pro-
ceeds devoted to the liquidation of the
debts. Then if Deering, Milliken q Co
will take the mill, they will start in with
clean decks and with an efficient and
capable superintendent in the person of
James Walker.
1t il likely that a syndicate of three or
more responsible men will be formed, and
these will take care of the water and
other liabilities Of the mill, cooperating
with Deering, Milliken 6 Co., if the
latter consent to act as selling agents
Hon. j. B. Mayo of Foxcroft is mention.
ed as one of this syndicate.
The mill seriously hafnpered itself in
the spring by it's affair with H. ]. Libby
& Co. The latter firm, while they had
been selling agents, had advanced large
sums Of money. When they were de-
posed in January the mill owed them
$1O5, 900 and the Libbys at once called
Tor the payment of this sum.
Inc amount was settled in goods and
as may be understood this was a severe
Drain upon the mill.

Daily Trips to the Mountains.

An examination of the timetables of
the Maine Central railroad shows some
excellent arrangements which have been
made for daily outings by the new train
service. Perhaps the most important is
the one arriving from the mountains at
4.55 p. M, making connections through
from Beecher Falls, Colebrook, North
Stratford, Lancaster, Glen and North
Conway. enabling passengers to leave
Portland at S.45 a. M, and 60 to Craw-
fords or Fabyans, arriving at 1880, hav-
ing an hour there for dinner, and return
on the train leaving there at 1.45; or one
can by the same trains go to Glen Station
and jackson, and enjoy dinner at
Wentworth Hall or any other of her
numerous hotels, or at Intervale, North
Conway, Fryebury or Hiram. The
Maine Central has added this year quite
anumber Of forms Of Saturday excursion
tickets at reduced rates, for points on
the White Mountain division.
The Songo river trips are now running.
SO that passengers can leave on the /. O5
p. m. train, take the trip across Sebago
Lake, up the Songo, over the narrow
gauge railway, and arrive in Portland at
las p. M, and as this train now runs ex-
press, there is no wait at Bridgton juno
ton, as the train is always on time.

sThat Runaway Accident.

In yesterday mornings PRESS, IN an
article on the runaway accident that oc-
CURED at the Cape Wednesday night, no
reflection was intended upon the charac-
ter of the teams that Mr.. Soule, the
Green street stabler, rents. The buck
skin horses that ran on the occasion, are
well known as very quiet, well broken
pair. Mr.. Soule is very particular as to
the horses he rents, as he prides him self
on giving people, who want safe, quiet
horses, just what they ask for.

Alleged Cruelty to Animals.

Last week a Portland constable spent
two or three days in the eastern portion
OF the state near Oakland in an endeavor
to arrest Walter A. Gleason of that place
on charge of cruelty to animals.
Gleason is cattle droyer who does a
great deal of business in buying up cat
tie among the farmers and shipping them
TO Boston on commission. On train
that contained the cattle that passed
through the city a fortnight ago, was a
car that had in it nine oxen, three cows,
live calves, two hogs and bull chained
up. This was against the statutes, not
because it contained more than the pre-
scribed number but for the reason that
more than one kind of dumb animal was
crowded in the car. Gleason appeared
before the Municipal court and pleaded
not guilty, but probable cause was found
and the respondent bound over to the
September term of the grand jury in the
sum of 5000. Bonds were furnished.
Mr.. Gleason and his bondsmen are
hopeful OF his acquittal before the grand
jury. They claim that he is not the par
ty on whom punishment should be in
fiieted, but rather sthat the parties who
loaded the car should be convicted. They
allege that the officers have harassed
men like Mr.. Gleason, who have greatly
benefited the farmers in the eastern Sec
ton of the state, by buying up the cattle
and paying good sum.

of the fine work which this establish

Casco Bay ''Sebago Lake, are done
with great delicacy and beauty. The
specimen book is also in itself sample
of what the firm do in the way of ele-

Attempted Larceny.

A steward on the Falcon caught two
thieves, yesterday, ransacking a valise
in one of the state rooms. Instead of
notifying the officer on the wharf he
drove the rascals out of the ship. At
the same time there were three deputy
sheriffs on the ship as visitors who, if
they had known it, would have gladly
seized them.
