SITUATION IN PAWTUCKET.
How the Candidates of Each Party
Line UP Against Each Other.

The Democrats OF Cumberland held an
enthusiastic rally in Foresters Hail, Ash
ton, last evening. There was large at
tendance, the hall being packed to the
doors with voters.
Senator Ryan was Chairman and In.
troduced David 8. Baker, Jr., as the
speaker of the evening. The next Cover
nor of Rhode Island was given a most
cordial reception and made a ringing
speech.
After calling attention to the impor-
tance OF the coming election Mr.. Baker
said the issues at this time are purely
local. IL IL seldom that the men nomin-
ated for Office stand for so little as they do
In this campaign. II is the underlying
principles and the platform on which the
candidates stand that are foremost In the
order OF consideration. II is true that the
Legislature TO be elected is TO select Uni
ted States Senator. National issues are
not at stake, however. A year ago had
the honor To head the Democratic State
ticket, and that ticket received such
number of votes az to insure them an
election under the present law.
lie then spoke OF the legislative tangle
and ! the dishonorable methods pur-
sued by the Republicans to perpetuate
themselves in power In defiance OF the ex-
pressed Will OF the people. You are called
upon to judge OF the political parties by
their actions In the past, In the very near
past. This one issue, IL carefully consId-
cred, Is sufficient to fight this battle upon.
Our party's history shows that 1t has al
ways championed the causes OF the work
ing people. Fellow citizens, you can do
nothing TO better help the interest OF the
workingmen OF the State than continuing
to send TO the Legislature that true apos-
tie OF labor, DIR. l.. r. c. Garvln. We do
not fear he money power OF the Repub-
licans II we can only appeal To your intel
ligence.
Chairman Ryan next INTRODUCED Hon.
Edwin ID. .McGuinness, w hose remarks were
well received. "The question that con-
fronts US In this campaign" said Mr.. Nc
Guinness Is: "If Mr.. Baker received the
popular vote but year ago, what comfort
have his opponents in hoping ard expect
ing to beat him this timer What rea-
sons have they To think they can beat
him? Simply this: They expect 10 bar
ter the most honorable position in the
gift OF the State to man who is New
Yorker In sympathy and by residence,
who has not the ability To fll the place
and whose only qualification IL his barrel
of money. lie comes here To escape the
heat OF New York for few months in the
Summer. But he will find the coming
month the hottest one he ever found any.

the audacity OF Mr.. Carroll In accepting

when he run for Mayor, but the people
put him there. They can Judge for them
selves whether he held his own In the
bitterest fight ever seen In this State.
Mr.. Littletield Is the candidate for Rep
resentative against Edward Thayer. Mr..
Littlefeld Is decent, an able and a
moral man,
james II. Mooney Is the candidate
against Wheaton Whiskers Cole.
Mr.. Mooney is one OF the liveliest
young business men ~ the city. The
various societies in which he has held Of
fee know that he is hard worker and
level headed.
or Mr.. Cole We can only say that he has
a flowing beard which waves with every
breeze which strays among n, and that
his opinions are as variable a. our New
England climate, and rs unstable. Mr..
Cole has PLAYED "high jlnks" I'm the Gen-
eral Assembly for year behind a news
paper with pretty pictures.
Daniel W. Ashton IL a candidate against
Henry f jerks. Every BODY knows anc

NAVAL COURTMART|AL
Testimony For Heyerman
Reaches Its End.
LIEUT.. lYMAN'S TURN NEXT
The Charges Three in Number and Al
lege Neglect Of Duty.

Brooklyn. March 2s - The closing
scenes in the trial by court martial Of
Commander Hsyerman, for negligence In
allowing the Kearsarge to be stranded on
Roncador reef. were enacted yesterday.
Lieutenant Commander Bowman was
recalled by the defense. He said that his
latitude at 3 o'clock on the morning Of
Feb. was the same as that Of the Kear-
sargs's navigator.
Commander Heyermap then took the
stand, and was asked by Lieutenant Com
msnder Mark il he had any reason to
suppose or know that all the positions of
the Kesrsarge handed him on Feb. by
the Kearsarge's navigator were not the
results Of the navigator's own personal
work and calculationsf
''No, air; have not" replied the CON-
mander
Captain j. A Adair, q sailor, who has
lived on a ship since 1850, and cruised on
waters around the West Indies for II
years, testified he had passed the dreaded
reef within mile to the eastward. An
other tune he had passed within 20 miles.
The currents were always variable He
had known sasterly currents In those
waters
"When passing the reef within 20 miles
to the eastward how often have you ex-
periencsd easterly currents, and at what
rate an hourH
"Two out Of five times, at about three
knots an hour. We experienced all sorts
of currents in the waters around the
Roncador reef, and we never could de-
pend upon tbem," said the witness.
''There would sometimes take place the
most unexpected reversals."
"What caused these sudden reversals,
in your opinion" asked the Judge advo-
cate.
"well. there's usually reversal when
calm sets In after q heavy blow" an
swered the captain.
The testimony for the defense was con-
cluded with this witness.
Lymsn's Case Next In Order.
WAsHISoToN, March 2s.-The secre-
tary of the navy has ordered Lieutenant
Lyman, who was navigating officer of the
KearsarRe at the time she was wrecked,
to appear before a court martial as soon
as that now trying Commander Heyer-
man 10 finished. 1t has been pre- dicted
that trial of Lieutenant Lyman would
follow that of Commander Heyerman, as
the testimony Of the court of investiga-
ton clearly showed that the lieutenant
was in charge of the vessel at the time Of
the disaster.
Under the charges and specifications,
the first charge Is neglect of duty. Under
this the first specification is that on Feb.
2, 1894, Lieutenant Wyman, serving as
navigator OF the United States flagship
Kearsarge, while making passage from
Port au Prince, Hayti, to Bluefelds,
Nicaragua, neglected and failed person
ally TO take an observation for longitude
In the morning. and thus neglected his
duties as navigator Of the vessel.
The second specification sets forth that
on Feb. 81, while on the same duty, he
failed TO obtain the local deviation by the
compass of the steamer, although the
weather permitted, and thus ne elected
his duty.
The third specification charges that the
same duty was neglected on Feb. 2.
