INFANTRY COMING HERE.
Fort Preble Garrison To Be Reinforced
BY One Company.

Active military preparations are going
on all along the line from Maine tt
Florida on the Atlantic coast and it goes
for the saying that the Pacific is not be-
ing neglected.
In this connection it is of especial in
terest to know that Portland has not been
overlooked and yesterday important or
ders were issued to strengthen the artll-
lery detachment at Fort Preble by sup
porting infantry. Every old soldier
knows the tactical necessity of this move
ment and all that 1t implies.
Obviously it is the intention OF the
government to distribute a considerable
body of infantry along the coast and that
Portland has received and allotments is
matter of general interest They will be
welcome and when their tents are pitched
it will recall the days of the old. 18th In
fantry which garrisoned Preble in the
days of '6l, and thereabouts. Not only
infantry and artillery but the engineers
will be much in evidence, and yesterday
at old Fort Georges this department was
hard at work. Torpedoes were being
loaded with the same kind of stuff that
blew the Maine up; cables were being
stretched and the connections with the
land will be made whenever the signal ls
given and it is very likely before many
suns Portland will have about her a tor
pedo system which will serve as net
work of harbor defenses

A BRAVE CAPTURE.

Yesterday afternoon the valuable black
horse and carriage of disappointment
Staples were standing in front of City
hall The horse took fright at something
and ran upon the sidewalk. In trying to
pass between the hydraDt and telegraph
pole he upset the carriage and the vehicle
fell on its side the whirripg wheels
striking the horses heels. 1t was a pretty
wild animal that went dashing across the
street that was filed with pedestrians and
teams. Mr.. Charles Sanborn. son Of Mr..
Leroy Sanborn, with great bravery seized
the bits and hung on like grim death. II
looked as If he would be dashed to the
ground. But he pulled the beast down
and aided by Michael O'Rourke of the fire
department. and another man whose name
we could not get, the horse was stopped
before he had done any more injury than
to run into countryman's team stand
ing in front of the Union Mutual bui Id
ing and break the harness.

ADANGEROUS CARGO.

Great Falls, Mont, April 8.-The
worst wreck that ever happened IN Mon
tana happened on the Montana Central
railroad last night. The dead are: L..
Oppenheim, engineer; Charles W. Cooket-
reli. fireman; A. J. Martin, brakeman.
West bound freight No. % arrived at the
Dr. Forks bridge sixty miles from here at
$50. The train was composed of 16 cars,
one carrying dynamite. When within
25 feet of the bridge, the dynamite ex-
pIoded, wrecking the bridge and tearing
ten cars to kindling wood. A hole was
torn in the earth 80 by rs feet and five
feet deep. Telegraph poles and wires were
blown down and communication from
Great Falls was shut off until today. The
wreck caught fire and WAS consumed 1t
is supposed that the car containing
dynamite was derailed ON the bridge and
the jolting caused it to explode.

TIE COUNCIL RECEDEs.

The Republican members Of the city
council held caucus last night to sec
whether or not they should elect the in
spector of plumbing and secretary of the
board of overseers of the poor ordered the
board of health and the overseers to do it.
The city solicitor was present by request
and gave it as his opinion that the officers
named could not properly be called
subordinate city officers but were agents
of their respective boards and should be
elected by them. 1t was decided by the
caucus to pursue the matter no further,
but to allow the board of health to elect
the plumbing inspector as it has formerly
done and not to lneddle with the position
of secretary of the board of overseers OF
the moor
