Olney Boom Launched at Boston.

The democratic state committee at
Boston, Mass, Saturday, Endorsed
a movement in favor of the
nomination of Richard olney for presi-
dent.
After speeches in praise Of Mr., oil
ney's record had been made, resolu-
lions were passed inviting democrats
everywhere to work In favor of such a
movement. The resolutions declare the
belief of the committee that under
Olney's leadership important New Eng
land states will swing over into the
democratic column and the national
party will achieve a sweeping victory
Congressman McNary who introduced
the resolutions, characterized Mr. OIL
ney as one of the foremost Americans
and foremost democrats" He thought
that II the democrats were to win this
year they must carry the eastern
states. II appeared, he said, that Mr.
Olney was strong in New York and
New Jersey, and that he would be ac-
ceptable TO those states and give the
democrats the immense advantage of
establishing a large eastern area where
the scales could be turned in favor of
the democratic nominee. Charles S.
Hamlin, in favoring the resolutions,
said: Under Mr., Olney's leadership sew
eral states of New England may be
counted upon for the democrats, and
the democratic party will sweep the
country"

several years apparently happy. A boy
was born to them in 1882 and a girl

public. Maybrick became addicted to
the use of arsenic to quiet his nerves.
He died May IL, 1889. from gastroen-
teritis brought on either by poison or
by getting wet.
MAVERICKS brothers started investi-

were subsequently made to have Mrs

Olney was U, S. secretary of state he
almost succeeded in having her liberat-

case went insane, and new evidence
was found that tended to establish Mrs.
innocence, but the house
Of commons, afte~ a long debate, re-
fused to open the case.

The joint committee Of the National
Trotting association decided Jan Z to
disaIlow Lou Dillon's record Of 2:O5 to

the mare had previously performed in

that the performance Of Maud SIS at
