a magnificent business. Wheat is

located in or around Dolores could

MAYOR QUINCY RE-E1ECrED.
DefentS Ex-Mayor Curtis, Republican
 Nominee, by Decreased Majority.

 Nominee, by Decreased Majority.
 Boston, Dec. 21.-Mayor Quincy was reelected in the municipal election to- day by a decreased plurality over ex- Mayor Curtis his opponent of two years ago, and the city, which was republican at the state election last month, is again democratic by about 4,10O The attempt to split the democratic vote In the city by vigorous work on the part of Thomas Riley running as Bryan democrat proved futile. His rallies were crowded and his audiences apparently intensely loyal, but less than 5000 vot- CTS supported him at the polls, the dem- ocrats as rule remaining loyal. Not Withstanding the strong effort which was made by the republicans to get out @ heavy vote in the suburban and back bay wards, which usually poll heavy re- publican majorities, Mayor Quincy made 1 great gains over the vote for Williams at the state election, while in some cases there was a decided falling off in the vote of the opposition.
 With such a spirited campaign and with such apparent interest in the out come of the contest together with the l greatest registration in the history of the city, it was generally supposed that a remarkably heavy vote would be cast It is therefore particularly disappoint- | ing to the republicans to find that the | total vote was but little over that of | two years ago. Whereas the last con- test between Quincy and Curtis S4 per cent. of the registration voted, less than 75 per cent. was boiled to-day. The total vote for mayor, with one precinct missing, is as follows: Quincy, dem, 39, TOY; Curtis, rep, 94741; Riley, Bryan dem, 2,SS5; Goldstein, socialist, 775.

TH F SiCHSH TRIBE.
Nine Witnesses for the Defense ReFute
 Mra. Hotchlkiss' Statements.


 Mrs. HotchiSiss' Statements.
 Middletown, Dec. 21.-There was much surprise expressed to-day in con- nection with the trial of Herman Sachse, who is charged with the mur- der of Bertrand l.. Hotchkiss last August. when at the conclusion of the testimony of Dr. Wolff, an expert from Hartford, it was announced that the state rested it's case. It was expected that there would be great deal more evidence put in.
 The defense then took up their side and during the day presented nine wit nesses, who testified to statements made to them by Mrs. HotchlIiss the day after the murder, which were en- tirely at variance to what Mrs. Hotch- kiss testified to in court at the opening of the trial, when she stated that she recognized Sachse outside the door after the murder had been committed. Cor oner Davis, Chief of Police Diglis and Police Officer mcaid, two newspaper men and Dr. Reynolds of Clinton, who performed the autopsy, were among the witnesses, and they all affirmed that the wife of the murdered man stated she had no idea who committed the crime and that she saw two men running away.
