HIS PEOPLE LIVE IN PORTLAND.
What the Reporters Fonnd Out About
William III. Jordan.

A few days ago some newspaper men
were walking down street by the Old
State House, in Boston, when we'll
dressed woman was seen to step into
doorway of the building, drink some
thing and fall to the ground. The jour
alists sprang forward, picked up the
woman and called for the authorities
She was conveyed to the hospital. A
very well appearing man, of the blonde
type, came forward, said he knew the
woman's husband and that he would be
responsible for all reasonable expenses
towards getting the woman well. the
woman's name was given as Mrs. Carrie
Jordan. She was stylishly dressed and
pretty Her husbands name was said to
be VIM. H. Jordan. The blonde gentle
man refused to give his name, as he said
he had nothing to do with the case other
than as friend. Mrs. Jordan had TAX
en- laudnaum when the reporters saw her
at the Old State House, and the hospital
doctors pumped it out of her. She will
not die.
There seemed to be so much mystery
about the reasons for the woman's &C
ton, and as she and the blonde man
were very reticent, the reporters started
for clues. They found several. An i'm
portant one was obtained by locating
VIM. H. Jordan at Maplewood, section
of Maiden, Mass. His name appeared in
the Maiden directory as a confectioner,
and his wife and family lived in the
town. The wife said her name was Mrs.
Clara Jordan. She was married to VIM.
Ell. Jordan in Oakland, West Waterville,
Me-, number of years ago. The re-
porter saw son with her, aged about 8
wears, and a bright little golden haired
daughter. Mrs. Clara Jordan said her
husbands people lived in Portland, Me.
He had run confectionery.andi ce-cream
business in East Boston, Lynn, Maiden
aud other places, and had been out to
| California. He didn't seem to succeed
very well. He had always treated her
well. She thought the woman in the
hospital who called herself Mrs. Carrie
Jordan. must be clerk that Mr.. Jordan
had in his store in Lynn. The description
tailed with her. Who the blonde man
was she didn't know. 1t seemed from
Mrs. Jordan's story that she and her
husband had not lived together for some
time, but that he occasionally sent her
money.

Mr.. DiDgley's Views.

Boston, March s.-The Journals
Washington special this evening has the
following: aGovernor Dingley, speaking
of the tariff bill as finally agreed upon
by the Democrats of the Senate sub
committee, says it is destructive bill:
1t is much worse than the Wilson bill
when it left the House. The policy of
the bill seems to be protection to raw
material, with finished products on the
free list. The cruder the articles ap-
most extraordinary and monstrous bill.
They will not pass this bill. But they
will pass some bill"
Mr. Reeds Brief Comment
Washington, March s.-The tariff bill
as reported to the Senate finance COM
mittee today seemed generally salts
factory to the Democrats of the House.
Ex-Speaker Reed said the bill is now
much worse than when it left the House.
The bill, it is said, will come before the
Senate about March Goth, and the debate
will last at least two months.

BRECKENRIDGE ENTERS A PROTEST. But SAYS
HE WILL MAKE NO FORMAL CONTEST.
Frankfort KY. Sept. o2.-Large delegations
arrived this morning from each Of the counties
In this Congress district to be present at the
counting Of the returns Of the primary in the
race between Colonel w. C. p Breckenridge ana
w c. Owens. All the members OF the commit
toe were here. Colonel Breckenridge and Desha
Breckenridge did not come down.
The committee met In the ballroom Of the
Capitol Hotel, in the presence Of $50 persons. with
Mr.. Mcleod chairman. Mr.. Forman. OF
Woodford, filed protest from Colonel Breckin-
ridge against the right Of Mr.. Mcleod To vote as
a member and also in proceedings heretofore
taken BY the committee This was followed b.
a speech from Chairman Carroll. requesting MI.
Mcleod to vote only In case OF a tie. Mr.. WEIGH
moved that the record Of the past stand. as no
vote cast by Mr. Mcleod affected the result.
Major Johnston Of Fayette, then read pro-
test, dated Lexingttn September 90 from
Colonel Breckenridge in regard 10 the injunction
granted by Judge Catr'll in the Bourbon case, as
an extraordinary abuse Of his powers as Judge.
The protest declares that Judge Catrill was
Breckinridge's bitter enemy; that the latter was
satisfied he had received a majority OF votes
over Owens and that the declaration Of Owens's
nomination would be making the committee a
partv to a fraud 1t concluded by saying that
breckenridge would not make a formal contest.
