for Maynard. and none for Bartlett. al
though eleven or twelve men swore they
either voted the Republican ticket or
were registered, but did not vote.
There are thirteen other election dis
tricts In this Assembly district in which
similar liberties were taken with the
ballot. In some the Tammany in

banner, did not even allow the ballots OF

NEWPORT, Dec. 2l.-Two sadder events
have never been crowded into one week in
Newport and vicinity, than .he two just
enacted. First, the murder OF the young
Scotchman, Daniel Hunter, and then the
violent death of farmer Abner 8. Main.
Early yesterday morning the news of
Mains death was received in the city, aud
many went to his home to offer
their services to Mrs. Main
and her three children. II seems
that Mr.. Main left Newport for his home
shortly after IL o'clock, and was driving
a very spirited horse. This was the last
seen OF him alive. The report that went
out that he was intoxicated is contra
dicted by those at the stable where he
put up his horse. Shortly after
O'Clock yesterday morning Mrs. Main
heard team drive into the yard
and shortly drive off again and then re-
turn. She got nervous and sent her IL
year-old daughter to hitch up and 20 to
town in search Of her father. While the
girl was harnessipg the horse she saw
dark object lying under q wagon Stand
ing in the yard, and investigating found
1t TO be her father, dead, and horribly
mutilated. His foot was caught between
the shaft and the wheel and was thus
was hanging. AT daybreak the road was
traced back and it was found that the
body had been dragged for three miles
been most frightful. Mr.. Main has been
employed by Mr.. III. A. G. Taylor for IL
years as farmer. The funeral will take
place on Saturday.
The Anthony Case.
There have been no new Developments
in the ANTHONY murder case, and 1t was
reported last night that at the trial,
which comes up this morning, An
thony would waive examination and be
bound over to The grand Jury
after being adjudged probably guilty.
How much OF this Is true will be seen

ExPERIME Mt FAILED.
There Was Hope Of Getting a Clue
to- the Murderer.

JAMESTOWN, N. Y. Dec. 19.-The re-
noval Of murdered Mrs. Shearman's eyes
ior Photographic experiment. was not re-
waSded by success.
The eyes were covered with coating
which prevented diseernment OF the figure
seen yesterday afternoon.
Various chemicals were tried to clear
the eyes, but failed, and the experiment
was abandoned.
Coroner Bowers, Frod Marsh and Sheriff
Joiners said today that they would take
their oath that the figure was plainly
visible before the eyes were taken from
the body.
The coroner thinks 1t was mistake to
remove the eyes and that IL the eyes had
been undisturbed the photographs could
easily have been obtained.
Much interest was taken In this expert
ment, and the outcome will be a disap-
pointment 10 many who expected to
secure photograph from the eyes, with
the hope of getting some clue to the muir
derer.
