thrown ON the streets without re.

laborer until he was "a. Then he
served in the Italian army three years
and n half.
On leaving his regiment he was en-.
ployed ms the valet de chambrc to the
Prince of Aragon for three months. AZ
this time anarchistic ideas began to
possess his mind and, to use his own
words, prevented me from remaining
in s~crvitude." In the course of u life
of adventure, he happened TO bc

first time he saw Empress, Elizabeth.
lie was miserable and weak, and APP.
piled to the Italian consul to be re.
turned to Italy. The consul sent him
to Flumc. His description of his sub
sequent wanderings was vague. lie
said he seldom, il ever obtained work.
While staying at Laussaneh he saw a
file outside q shop, purchased it with
no conceived purpose and made q
clumsy wooden handle for It.
In prison he has boosted OF his
crime, and has addressed n letter TO a
Milan newspaper, expressing u fear
lest he be mistaken by Professor Cabar
10 mbroso for n degenerate. Dilating
in this communica tion upon the
objects of militant anarchism, he
wrote

be struck. Not only sovcrcigns and

comrades, but all who make men mis-

He says he was not impcllcd by mis-
cry to kill the empress, rs such {

committed the deed in order that sucl

MAINE ELECTION.
Republicans Carry tho state by About
3l,OOO Plurality.

PORTLAND, Me-, Sept. i-Thc state
election resulted in the success of the
full Republican ticket. Returns AZ
midnight from 19i towns out of 40 in
dictate Governor Powers plurality at
about II 900, a Republican loss of II
per cent and a Democratic loss of q
per cent. The lower branch OF the
legislature will probably stand l33
Republicans to eighteen Democrats, "a
gain of twelve for the latter. The
senate, however, will remain IN
changed, being, rs in former years,
solidly Republican.
The state elected a solid Republican
delegation to congress. The result of
the stiff fight Of Mckinney against
Speaker Reed vas hardly apparent
until later returns came in, when It
was seen how we'll the Democratic
candidate ran. A decrease of nearly
1000 FOR the speaker OF the house de-
noted q decided lack of interest on the
part of his constituents.
