No Smallpox in Maine.

Secretary Young of the State board of
health informed Journal reporter that
the reports of smallpox cases in South Ber-
wick AID Sullivan were untrue.
On hearing the reports he Immediately
telegraphed to the secretaries of the local
boards in those places. Both telegraphed
back Thursday that there were no cases of
smallpox.
1t is almost surprising that with small
pox in almost every Northern state there is
none in Maine. 1t will be very surprising
If this State is so fortunate as to have no
cases until the contagion is effectually
stamped out.
JOURNAL reporter was Permitted to
look over the reports which Secretary
Young has received from secretaries of
boards in other states within the past few
days
There is a good deal of smallpox through
out the country. These reports are made
according to an agreement made between
the secretaries in the several states. While
the officers of the state boards have gener-
ally favored publicity. and DR.. Young says
he believes that it is better for all concerned
to know just when an outbreak of con.
'agious disease occurs and where, neverthe.
less considerable local prejudice exists
Indeed to such an extent that it was found
that these diseases would not be reported
TO the state boards promptly for fear Of
publication. Now the present method i.
adopted and publicity is given of any out
break where it is advantageous to do 50.

STATE PENSIONERS.
Unusually Large Number New Applicants Keep
Pension Clerk Very Busy.

State Pension Clerk Milliken is a very
busy State official just at present. The
calls for State pensions is much greater
than in past years.
Up to the present time for this year he
has received 500 applications. At this time
last wear the number of applications was
only G3i.
One important feature of this large num-
Der of applications is the fact that very
many of them are from those who have
never before applied for pensions. This
arises from various causes, such as
the hard winter, the pension sus-
pensions, reductions, etc, by the
rational administration Then quite a
number of these new applications came
from widows of pensioners who are now
cut off from national pensions. Owing to
this increase of new pensions it will be i'm
possible to respond to many applications
made for an increase in the amount of old
pensions which have been received,
Already the pension clerk has granted
G3j certificates and is hard at work to issue
them just as fast as possible, for no doubt,
in many instances, the applicants are in ac-
tual distress. The number of certificates
already issued exceeds those issued las.
year at this time by about 2j0. The appli-
cations were made earlier than last year.
The Oldest person on the State pension
rolls is woman, Mrs. Rebecca McDermo t
of Wnterport, widow of John McDermott,
Co. X 3lst Maine.

Boston Sunday Journal Will Come Over the
Maine Central With 0ihsr Sunday Papers.

There is no need Of continued hearing
before the board of railroad commissioners
today regarding transportation of Boston
Sunday Journals on the Sunday paper

General Manager Tucker telegraphed the
board that the road would not appear in the
matter and this telegram was FOLLOWED by
one, Thursday, TO the effect that the whole
matter had been adjusted satisfactorily and
that there will from this out be but one
Sunday newspaper train over the Maine

eral times in these columns. The exact
amount received for freight shipped to
this city, over that line, $40, 2o9, was as
certained yesterday from MIR. j. M. SAM
ford. the accommodating agent.
As heretofore stated, this does not in
clude outgoing freight, but is the amount
actually collected for freight here.
The showing is splendid one, and II
the M. & c. is doing as good business al

The preliminary examination of Sam
Hancock, for murderous assault upon
Walker Haywood, was waived by the
defendant yesterday and Judge Taylor
placed the bond at $500 which he failed
to make yesterday.
1t is expected he will be able to make
bond for this amount today, thus securing
his release until the February term OF
court, when he will, if indicted enter a
plea of self defense. The trouble it will
be remembered grew out of a dispute
over a game of cards several weeks ago,
which came near costing Haywood his
life.
