JUDGE FOSTERS SUCCESSOR.
Candidates Much In Evidence at the Cap
itaI Yesterday.

Augusta, February 23.-V. NJ. Theriault
of Fort Kent appeared before the Governor
and Council Wednesday afternoon and
asked that Fort Kent be reimbursed by the
state for expenses in suppressing the re-
cent outbreak of diphtheria in his section.
The amount expended by the town was
about $780, besides 5000 for neighboring
plantations The cost of anti-toxine was
heavy.
The council gave hearing on the dead
lock in Franklin county on the choice of
a member of the board of agriculture.
Hon. F. E. Timberlake of Philli ps, N.
u. Hinkley of Pennington and ex-Sena-
tor Joel Wilbur of Avon appeared in the
interestsof George F. Beal, the candidate
of the North franklin Agricultural
society, claiming that the customs had
been to alternate between the societies in
choosing mem mbers, and as the Franklin
county society had member last term,
it was North Franklin's turn now. The
other candidate is Mr.. Rollins of Farm
ington. .a tss
The question of the selection of a judge
as successor to Judge Foster is very much
in evidence here today. Friends OF Leslie
C. Cornish, Esq, of Augusta have been
trying to persuade him to become candi-
date, but he objects. Some Of his Augusta
friends this afternoon will endeavor to
lead him to change his mind and say he
will take the position. Hon. d. N. Matt
land is here in the interest of Hon. W. II.
Fogler of Rockland. Judge Cornish Of
Lewiston has strong support. Hon. A.
M. Spear of Gardiner is mentioned as
candidate.

PORTLAND STREETS INUNDATED.
But They We're in Better Shape Yesterday
Than They Were the Day Before.

The condition of the streets about the
city were somewhat improved yesterday
but the sidewalks and crossings were IN
such bad shape that rubber boots were
necessity and few ladies ventured out.
Business has suffered greatly during the
last few days and will not improve much
until the rain and snow fall ceases long
enough to give people chance to fix the
sidewalks.
superintendent Staples has been doing
his best during the past two days to
keep the crossings free and give the
large amount of water chance to drain
off. Over $50 men we're at work yester-
day shovelling snow, digging cutters and
clearing out catch basins. Inc lower
part of the city was inundated. Com
mercial street got large share OF the
water, and so much gathered on the
tracks of the Portland railroad on this
street that for a time the cars had to
stop running.
The ice and snow still fills the docks
and harbor but is rapidly floating away
and melting.
The railroad trains were all on time
Yesterday and the Portland Railroad
company was running its cars on sched-
ule time in spite of the overfiowed
tracks and icy rails.
The Cape electric road people are hav-
ing pretty hard time with their tracks
on Commercial street. Yesterday morn
ing large crew of men and a snow plow
were doing their best to clear them, but
the water would run back faster than it
could be scooped away. There were at
least two inches of solid ice on the rails
and on top of this was fully a foot of
water. As Commercial street is SO much
lower than other streets it seems as
though the water ran down the cross
streets in mad rush to flood it.
The line is open as far as the Knight
Vile schoolhouse on the Cape and it will
undoubtedly be several days before
everything is working smoothly again.
An attempt was made to break out the
road beyond Knightville but both scrap
pers on the snow plow were broken off
and it was found to be useless. The ice
will have to be broken out with pick.
If it should clear off cold and freeze up,
the work of clearing out the tracks
would be much easier.
Last evening cars were running on the
Cape road to Knightville and the man.
agement hopes to get through to South
Portland this morning.
