Leaves From the Tobacco Paper:

The tobacco sections of the state have
been more thoroughly canvassed during
the week tharany time before this sea-

movement of the crop was at hand. The
exporters.of domestic tobacco who have
for years depended upon Wisconsin

in a fair way to get shut ont again on
the go Wisconsin deal. Their business
is largely in low grade goods, or more
particularly tobacco that could be laid
down in the old country at a. cheap
price. One thing seems certain, Wis

in the future will bring more moriey or

"One of the most interesting points in
connection with Mr. Reeds departure
for New York is this: He will not dispose
of his residence in Portland, nor will he
sell his cottage at Grand Beach. In
fact, it is intimated that Mr.. Reed has
stated quite plainly to his friends that
he still proposes to remain identified with
Maine and will for time at least main
tain his residence in Portland. He says
that the people of Maine are the ones
who have enabled him to gain his stand

have always displayed lively interest in
his activity.

THREE NEW YORK MURDERS


Uno Tolls tho story OF Disappointed
Lovers Vow.
New York. Oct. 9.-Three murders
occurred among the Italians in greater
New York yesterday. Joseph Marini,
an Italian plasterer, 20 years of age,
was found murdered in his home in a
tenement in Little Italy. He was lying
undressed in bed. with q stilletto in
his heart. The police believe that
either the mans father committed the
deed or else was driven temporarily in
zane because Of the crime.
The old man attracted attention by
his peculiar actions. He was accom-
panied by his little daughter, and he
seemed In mortal dread of something.
His face was blanched. his knees
trembled, and he seemed speechless.
So strange were his actions that he
was surrounded by great crowd of
people, but started to run away. He
made good his escape from the crowd,
hut an investigation was made by the
police and the body of the mans son
was found. with the little girl weeping
beside 1t.
Michel Angelo, an Italian Spectator,
was shot and killed In Brooklyn by
Michael Cangoes, a fellow countryman.
The shooting followed quarrel over
money the murderer owned his VIC
tim. The murder was committed in
the presence of many passers by.
Anton Schavalli was shot and killed
In Astoria by another Italian. who
gave his name as Carmello Giancitas.
The murderer was arrested. Schavellj.
who had lived in Astoria for several
years, was walking in company with
his wife. when man walked close to
him and scrutinized him carefully. He
then drew a revolver and fired four
bullets at Schavelli. all of which took
effect. Italians say the shooting Of
Schavelli was long standing debt
that the murderer promised to pay.
Fourteen years ago, they say, Giancitas
fell in love with the photograph Of q
girl while in this country, and said he
would marry her. A younger brother
of Anton Schavelli, however, married
her, and Giancitas vowed vengeance.
He said he would kill his rival and
his rivals three brothers. He shot
two Of the brothers at different times
III New York city, and each time made
his escape. Both men recovered.

LAURIHR CRlTICIZEs HARLAN

Canada's Premier Declares the Brit.
ish System of Government Superior.
Chicago, Oct. 9-Sir Wilfrid Laurier
premier of Canada, was yesterday for
mally welcomed to Chicago by the
French Canadians of the city at a
meeting in Studebaker Hall. After he
had responded in French man in the
center of the hall arose and asked the
speaker to say something in English.
In response the premier spoke as fol-
lows:
Il will give you the reason why I
cannot answer that invitation as I
would wish. In the month of January
last was in the city of Washington,
acting as British commissioner to en-
deavor to settle certain difficulties
which we had with our American
neighbors. Incidentally, may say,
ladies and gentlemen, that even in the
best of families little Quarrels some
times occur. and it so happens that at
this moment there are not what
would call a quarrel, but number of
difficulties, among them the Alaskan
boundary question. While endeavor-
ing to settle these difficulties in Wash
ington l attended demonstration
very much of the character of the pres
ent one. l heard one of the justices of
the supreme court state that the Amer
lean system of government was SUI
perior to all other systems, because it
was government by law.
"Let me say that am Canadian
I am British subject. I have great
admiration for the American constitu-
ton and system of government, but
this is free country, where liberty Of
speech prevails. Therefore, II I had
had the pleasure of being able to
speak my mind would have told Mr..
Justice Harlan. for he was the justice
to whom l referred, that the British
system of government is superior to
the American. But as has already
been said. Americans are governed by
law, and that being so we must obey
the law, and the law today is that
am not to speak the English language,
but to speak it tomorrow"

Paris, Oct. 9.-The first attempt to
hold bull fight here proved fasco.
An immense crowd gathered about the
bull ring at Douil. near Enghion. The
first bull brought into the ring was a

the barrier and created terrible panic
among the spectators. injuring dozen
persons, some of them seriously. The
bull then escaped into the country
where he was pursued by matadors and
picadors and was finally dispatched.
One gendarme was tossed and gored.
The police stopped further proceedings
