THE WORST is OVER.
The Rain viii Prevent a Suspension of
Business on the Androscoggin.

Very encouraging news was received
here last evening by parties interested In
the lumber mills and manufa cturers along
the line of the Grard Trunk. The rain
started in early yesterday among the noun
tains. and while not heavy at any time, it
was continuous, and by sve O'Clock a
marked Improvement in the rivers and
streams was reported from all important
points. and at midnight the rain WAS still
falling. and seemed TO extend very nv idely.
At that hour 1t was believed that the worst
was over with the great paper mills, and
that enough rain had fallen to make it GER
tam that it will not be found necessary to
close any Of the mills on account of a lack
of water. At Berlin Falls. N. H., it was
believed early in the evening that 1t would
be possible for the.Glen Manufacturing COM
pany to start up their grinders and with
the good start given them by the pulp re-
ceived from Nova Scotia, 60 be able to grind
enough to keep all departments Of their
mills running. Farmers are also greatly en-
couraged, and say that the rain is putting
the around into excellent condition. The
Androscoggin river is rising rapidly, show
ing that the rain must be heavy in the
mountains aud among the lakes that make
up the Rangeley chain.

Rev. DR.. Lansing Tenders Apology to
tile President.
THEY WERE FOUNDED PARTLY ON
COMMOND REPORT,

And Partly on the Testimony of Witnesses
Who Are :Opposcd by Others Equally
Creditable-The Doctor Declines to
Decide Between them and So Retracts
His Statement.
Boston, April S.-Rev. ]. j. Lansing. of
the Park street church has sent tho follow
ing statement. to the Daily Globe: my auu-
sion made in a = temperance. address at sa-
lem April 4, to tie drinking habits of the
President of the United States we're based
partly on report and partly on testimony
of eye witnesses from various. and inde-
pendant sources which believe to be Who'll
ly reliable,3I had been informed .that the
President had been seen, ION different oc-
casions, and in the presence of many per-
sons, in an intoxicated condition. From
the circumstantial and detailed character
of these statements l supposed there was
no doubt as to the facts alleged, ,and there
fore made this allusion as matter Of ccm-
mon report, basing my confidence .on the
testimony of PEI sonal, as I supposed credf-
table witnesses. 1.-The names Of these wit
nesses obviously, cannot Nith-propriety
reveal, since, sharing their knowledge in
common with many others, they might just
ly shrink from being singled ont and called
to verify that of which not only they, but
others equally with themselves had .ocoular
proof. l must therefore sag that II my
statement reproducing such Testimony is
not in harmony with the, facts, regret
having made it. could have neither de-
sire nor motive:for saying anything unkind
or ouncharitable of the President or any
party whatsoever. The case being one of
conflict of testimony betwesn..witpessss Of
equal credibility, cannot decide, and since
l have no personal knowledge apart from
the testimony l withdraw the statement
an tender apologetic and sincere regrets
to the President Of the United States and
to the public"
