the fact that the furnaces Of the Illinois
Steel company which have been using
the product or the nine have shut down.
Then again the manganese in the ore has
been gradually diminishing, thus de
tracing from the desirabiity OF the ore.

AUGUSTA, July 81. A meeting of Demo

Hon. W. II. Mcclellan and Capt Chas. Baker
of Belfast; F. B. Torrey of Bath; ex-Gov
Garcelon and others. Other prominent
Democrats in all parts of the State were

WASHINGTON WHISPERINGS. Further
steps were taken by Great Britain and the
United States several days ago in the mat
ter OF consideration OF the British claims
against this country for seizures in previ-
Gus years in the Benring sea. The treaty
providing for the appointment of a joint
commission Of two to adjust these claims
provides, in addition to one represen-
tative ON the part of each government, for
third commissioner in the event that the
two original commissioners fail to agree.
The British government selected Geo. E.
King, one of the justices of the Supreme
Court of Canada. The United States
commissioner is Judge William l.. Putnam
of the first United States judicial circuit.
The commissioners will meet at Victoria,
b. c., probably not until next fall. ... The
two elaborate tariff speeches which Sena-
tor Gallinger of New Hampshire delivered
at the recent session of Congress have
been reprinted from the Congressional
Record in pamphlet form. They contain
a very large amount of practical informa-
tion and an excellent presentation of the
great protectionist arguments. No more
comprehensive addresses on the tariff
were delivered in Washington this year.
They are of special interest to Senator
Gallinger's constituents, and will be found
of value for reference everywhere as the
campaign progresses.

FISH AND GAME. Close time on salmon
began at midnight July 18th. From now
until next April no salmon may be taken
OF killed in any way under penalty of
not less than $40 nor more than $50, and
SO additional for each fish taken or
killed, provided, however, that from July
18th to Sept. 18th it shall be lawful to
take salmon with single hook and line. E.
The Fishhawk, which has been at Orr S
Island for the past few weeks, is now at
Boothbay Harbor. The men in charge
Matched 10000, 600 Holsters during their
stay at Orrs Island. J. W. Trefethen and
other dealers furnished great deal of
spawn. The Fishhawk will remain at
Boothbay until about Aug. 15th..... The
fishermen say that the mackerel now are
on the western portion of Georges. There
are about 60 sail there, and some macker-
ell, but they are SO wild that they cannot
be caught. The captain of the Flora
Nickerson set his seine So times in one
day and did not catch fish Old fisher
men say that with hand lines these fish
would get tame, and the fisherman would
do much better... What is said to be the
largest togue ever taken from Maine wa
ters has been captured at Long Lake,
near Caribou. This fish weighed 80 1-2
pounds and was 80 inches in length
When first discovered the fish was in shall
low water and several people waded out
and attempted to capture him. Finally a
man landed the fish with his hands. An
examination showed the throat of the fish
was filled with mud.
IN BRIEF. Ex-Governor William E.
Russell of Massachusetts died July 18th
at St. Adelaide, Quebec. He was found
dead in bed at the camp of B. F. Dutton
of Boston. Heart disease was probably
the cause of his death. Governor Russell
left his home shortly after his return
from Chicago for the purpose of seeking
rest. The news of his death was received
with universal regret...... The Boston q
Maine Railway Co. declared the regular
quarterly common stock dividend of 81. 50
per share, payable Oct. 1st. The directors
declared the semi annual dividend of 8
per cent. on preferred stock, payable
Sept. 1st.
