DEATH WAS SUSPICIOUS.
Dead Body of Lime Kiln Burpsr roppd
in RockIand.

Rockland, October 3.-Thescity was ex-
cited today by the finding of the dead
body of Charles W. Bowen, kiln tender
under suspicious circumstances. Bowen
who was AZ years of age,s left his home
Saturday morning, saying he was going
to his mothers. Instead he went to the
house of Mrs. Lucinda .Foss.
1t is alleged that liquor was obtained
and Bowen and a youngsman named, AL
Curtis, who boarded with Mrs. Foss,
partcok of 1t freely.
Curtis left the house in the afternoon
and did not return until evening. In the
meantime Bowen was taken sick and be-
ing unable to walk home was taken to
Mrs. Foss's barn by Nit Dicket. Ac-
cording to the testimony of all at the
house this was the last seen of Bowen
until Curtis upon going to the barn in
the morning to feed his horse, found the
dead body of Bowen. He was lying up
ON his face. Coroner Judkins was sum
moned and made an examination OF the
body. he found an. intiamed spot about
the size Of a mans hand just above the
pit OF the stomach.
AS the body was lifted pocket book
dropped to the floor and another was
found in a pocket. Both were empty.
Ih1s is one of most suspicious circum-
stances as Mrs. Bowen says her husband
had from S25 to $50 when he left home
Bowen was an able bodied man seeming
~ in good health. Both Coroner Judkins
and City Marshal Crockett suspect foul
play and an autopsy and coroner's in
quest will be held Monday. The parties
who were at the house all tell similar
story and disclaim all knowledge of Bow
en- after he was taken to the barn. 1t is
believed by many that Bowen's death
was caused by either an accident or
possibly alcoholism

ly expressed her disapproval of the con

Tho British Barquetine st. Peters Terrible
Story at Halifax-Saw Unknown Craft
- Laboring I'M Fearful Storm-Must
Have Carried Crew of SO Men.
Halifax, October 3.-The British bar
quetine St. Peter before. reported having
been passed at sea making for Halifax in
distress, arrived here today. She was
partially dismastedsin a hurricane that,
struck her on the night of Septem Der Sth,
compelling her to put about for Halifax
in order to repair the damage. Captain
Skaling brings the startling report that
storm trough which his vessel passed
without serious danger. was the cause of
sending to the bottom d four-masted iron
sailing ship which must have carried q
crew of at least forty-fve or fifty men.
The St. Peter and the other vessel had
been sailing within sight of each other all
day on the Sth, but never came within
hailing distance. The name of one could
not be distinguished from the deck of the
other. When evening closed in the big
ship could be plainly seen from the deck
of the St. Peter, her lights were in sight
for some time after dark. Then the hurri-
cane swept the ocean and the crew of the
;. Peter had all they could do to keep
their vessel adoat. She was thrown on
her beam ends and remained In that
position for ten hours, during which time
the crew were lashed to various parts Of
the deck work.
When the St. Peter righted herself on
the 9Th nothing was to be seen of the four
masted ship sighted the night before, but
shortly afterward the barquetine passed
the floating wreck of a ships deck and
deckhouse, which tie crew identified as
belonging to their sailing companion of
the previous day. The condition of the
st. Peter made it impossible for the crew
to make an examination of the wreckage
in order to learn the name of the ship,
but Capt. SkaIing is satisfied that the
other vessel went down with every soul
on board. No small boat could have lived
on the water in. such hurricane The
disaster occurred in latitude 3S, longitude
38. The st. Peter, which belongs to
Windsor, n. S., was on a voyage from
Bear river for Buenos Ayres with cargo
of lu mber.

BURGLARS IN CORNISH,
They Ransacked Two Stores and Stole a
Horse and Wagon.
fgpEc1AL TO THE PnEEs.J


Cornish, Oct. 2-There were several
daring burgleries committed here during
last night. The post office, which is sit
uated in the store of John F. Jameson
was entered and thoroughly ransacked.
There were only few dollars in the
office and the plunderers did very little
better in the money drawer Of the store.
The safe shows that five unsuccessful
attempts were made to drill deep enough
to blow 1t, and after giving this up the
burglars evidently turned their attention
to sacking the store. The goods were
taken from the shelves and thrown about
IN great confusion.
The jewelry store of Geo. A. Allen was
also entered by window, which was
opened with Jimmy. Here Mr.. Allen
had thirty watches in the cases and these
were all taken. Four boxes Of jackkniyes,
each box containing six knives, and a
number of tobacco pipes are also missing.
These two store are in the upper part Of
the village and it is thought that the
same men went to the stable of Hebert
Perkins and stole a horse, harness. and
wagon. Perkins's place is in the lower
end of the village. about mile away
from the post Office
This morning there were foot prints
clearly distinguishable in the road near
the stable, showing that man with
pointed toed shoes had dragged out the
wagon while another, with heavy shoes
with round toes had led the horse. They
were evidently heading toward Portland
and search will be at once started in that
direction
