Norton Of this city Of Nadeau, the Aroos-
took desperate, who for six years past has
dehed the officers of the law Deputy
Norton had already established his reputa-
| ton as a most efficient officer and this ar
| rest, and the landing of his prisoner in
Portland Jail, is a great feather in his cap.
Nadeau arragned in the Z, S. Circuit
Court at Portland Aug. 11th, charged with
violating the internal revenue law and with
having resisted Deputy United States
Marshal MeNaliy. and to both complaints
pleaded not guilty. The later developments

patches:
PORTLAND. Aug. 10 Geo. Nadeau, of ST.
Francis, charged with assault with deadly
weapon on L. S. Deputy Marshal McNally
in 1891, who yesterday pleaded not guilty
came into court this morning and pleaded
guilty. Through his counsel, Hon. A. F.
Moulton, Nadeau made statement declar-
ing that he did not intend to shoot McNally.
The officer came to his door on Sunday
morning and Nadeau thought he had no
right to make any arrest on Sunday. His
wife in delicate health and was in a
faint Nadeau said this threw him into
panic and he shut the door and fired through
It to scare the officer. He said he has
wife and four children, also an old man who
IS dependent upon him for care. He has
also large crop of hay and oats and if he
is detained here he Will lose his whole crop.
Several citizens of that vicinity sent word
that they have confidence in Nadeau and
that he is a peaceful man.
Judge Webb said he had no desire to op-
press any citizen and therefore if Nadeau
can furnish bail in the sum of $500 he
would defer sentence until October 9th
next.
PORTLAND, Aug. l3. George Nadeau
has secured bail in the sum of $500 and gone
to his home in St Francis. Two Portland

Hon. John T. Rowe, whose serious illness
was reported i'll The journal last week died
Aug. 18th at his home in Frankfort aged 81
years. He was the oldest quarry owner
in the State. In 1910, with Albert Pierce
now also dead, Mr.. Rowe came to Frank
fort from Guilford, n. H and opened small
quarry at Mt Waldo. He lived to see the
little hole in the mountain ledge grow into
the great quarries of to-day, with their i'm
he began business no granite was sent
farther than New York, for there was no
way OF transporting it inland, aud, indeed
there We're no inland cities of sufficient
Importance TO have buildings calling for
such materials. In his early days at the
business all heavy weights We're moved by
means of Ok teams. This season they in
stalled at Mount Waldo a railway extending
from the Wnarves up the steep hillside to
the quarrles, with powerful locomotive and
cars capable OF carrying many tons weight;
also travelling steam derrick for handling
the great blocks of stone that were formerly
holsted by hand. Since Mr.. Rowe began
business enough granite has been shipped,
in one form and another, from Mount Waldo
to build large city, and yet with sections
of its gray surface scattered from Bangor to
St. Louis and from Charleston to Minnea-
polls, Mount Waldo appears to have lost
little or nothing of its massive proportions.
Mrs. Elizabeth Libby died Aug. 9th at the
home of her daughter, Mrs. George Elliot, in
Thomaston. Mrs Libby was a native of
Belfast. For several years she resided in
Rockland, but went to Thomaston soon
after the marriage of her daughter, with
whom she made her home Her years in
Thomaston We're given to the interests of
her daughters family, in whose children she
took a deep concern. Mrs Libby had been
in ill health for some time, having been
brought near to death twice In her year of
sickness she was tenderly cared for and
every comfort and relief possible ministered
to her. Mrs. Libby was eighty-one years
and six months old The funeral service
was held Thursday afternoon. Aug. 11th.

EASTERN MARKETS.
CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO. Nov. 1.-THE opesing trades in
wheat showed declines Of 1s93sc, May starting
at from 65l. Q652.c, There was plenty Of news
OF a discouraging nature TO buyers. but the
selling pressure was surprisingly light and no
further decline occurred On the contrary the
market began to mend shortly after the open
Ing. and though the advance was very slow
for two hours il was sure. English coneols
were up 3-I6d bid and an almost total lack OF
foreign buying orders WAS reported from the
seaboard- Liverpool, which declined Id yes
terday showed further decline at the open
Ing here to-day Of Sgd, and London reported
cargoes 214d lower. Shorts considered 1t
advisable TO take the profits on yesterday
decline. and\ their buying soon sent the May
price up 655sc. For long time the market
hung between that figure and 6512c- The vol
ume of trade was very moderate and nuctua-
tions were infre1uent until after O'Clock,
when the tone Of the seaboard and foreign
news changed decidedly for the better and the
market here Immediately took notice OF that
fsrr TJyerrool cables showed half of the

bur re sresl7inss of New York convinced spec
ulators that good business was being done. New
York finally claimed high as 12U loads taken
at all points. The cash demand here and at
was some talk Of possible squeeze in DeceIn-
Der at New York, and this had an effect on
local shorts who covered freely. As the ses-
sion progressed the demand from shorts gradu-
ally grew heavier and afternoon trading was
quite heavy in volume. May advanced steadily
to 6654c and was bringing 661sc at the close;
Corn weak early on a decline IN cables
crop J. g27 O00 900 bushels. There was a good
cash demand and a lot OF December buying
by shippers There was renewed buying at the
decline by leading bull operators and the mar
ket became firmer, closing at the best prices
of the day. May closed a shade higher.
Oats were rather slow. Renewed selling by
local long who has been selling heavily Of
late, and sympathy with corn caused a rather
weak market early. Cash demand was good,
and wheU the liquidation was over the strength
of car lot prices and the advance in other
grain markets was reflected by cats May
closed a shade higher.
Provisions were stagnant. Early there was
some weakness with wheat and on lower hog
prices. There was demand from pack
ers. especially for lard, and shorts covered
moderately. prices recovering the slight open
ing decline. Cash demand was better. At the
close January pork was 2lzc higher, lard and
rihs unchanged.
