When men cannot sell their wheat, lahor, lumber or coal to a n1anufactur- CT, ether because he doesn't need it or cannot afford the price, they have the right to offer elsewhere. But if they try by conspiracy and violence to tres- pass on the property or hurt his busi- ness in order to force the manufacturer to buy what he does not want, the law breakers should be confined by the au- tl1orities and made to work long enough to pay in full for the damage and joss they may have caused.

 siastic than in the last presidential campaign.
 There are not more than 360000 democratic votes in this city divisible between the two democratic candi- dates. They cannot be divided in such way as to render possible the elec- ton of either if the republicans them selves do not fall into the trap spread for them by their foes..''
 MT. Jerome said in part:
 AS this campaign closes l have but one feeling In my heart, and that is one of overwhelming gratitude that I nave been permitted to foe part of a movement So stirring and significant. The greatest honor of my life is that have been part of this fight. I re- cognf2e that it has been the principle and not myself that has made 1t grow z vags great that 1t is no longer d local fight, but one in which the interest. of the whole people is certered All over the country they see it as we do in New York--a fight on the part of the peo- pie to resume tine power that justly resides in them and which unjustly has been taken away from them"
 William Halpin, chairman of the, re- publican county committee, issued the following statement tonight:
 MT. Wins will receive total vote of 217, ,000; Hearst will have 204, ,000 and Me Clellan 170000. MT. Jerome will be elected by an overwhelming vote."
 Rev. Dr. Charles H. Parkhurst, in the course of statement issued tonight, said:
 Tn the last campaign did not Jerome, that prince of illuminators, hold the whole Murphy crowd In the limelight of his dramatic elucidation and whitening excoriation? And now what are reputable citizens about that they are cossetiag the discredited gang with mouldy phrases of responsibility It is we'll enough to say nice things about Mcclellan, and he deserves them He is gentleman and the son of 8 gen. tle1nan, the bearer of an illustrious name, name that, so far as I know he has never personally tarnished. But that does not touch the point at issue The question is not on Mcclellan as s gentleman-it is on Mcclellan consid, cred as the authorized representative of a dirty crowd that are the organized 1 embodiment of the thievery and col llective debauchery of a city of four mil 1 lion inhabitants.
 There is a great deal to choose be- ! tween Mcclellan and Croker when 1t i: merely a matter of personal character but there is nothing to choose betweer them when it is g. matter of candidacy Jerome has done something to make vice uneasy, but whatever he or any body else has done in that line has beer a straight stroke in the face and eye! of Tammany Hall"

CHORUS GIRLS HEAD
 BROUGHT TO SURFACE
Continued from First Page.)

The recovery of the head to-day was due to the efforts Of @ diver employed by a Boston newspaper. Ever since the. alleged confessions of Crawford and Howard, the police boats have been dragging the harbor in the vii cinity of the East Boston ferries To- day the search was continued, begin ming at nine o'clock and ending about five, with no result. The newspaper men, however, kept on after sunset and about six o'clock their efforts were rewarded by the finding of a bag about 8 hundred yards off the South Ferry dock on the East Boston side.
 The bag is of leather, somewhat larger than 8 satchel. It is about two feet in length, a foot wide and eighteen inches in height. When the bag was opened the head of a woman was found wrapped in a piece of black cloth. About the black cloth was a piece of oil cloth such as surgeons use, and similar to that in which were wrapped the torso of the woman and the limbs.

MAINE BURBERRY BARRENs.
Where the Fruit is Gathered for the
 Canneries.

l Canneries.
 Profess W. M. Munson of the Univer- sity of Maine contributes to the report issued by Edgar E. Ring, Forest Com missioner for Maine, an instructive pa- per on "Blueberry Culture" In some parts of Maine, particularly in Wash ingtoh County, the management of lands that have been deforested and
 that would be worthless for general ag- rlcultural purposes, has been syste1na- tlzed, and the canning of blueberries has become an important industrial ! operation. Appended below are liberal extracts from the professors interest ing sketch.
 The land devoted to the blueberry industry in Maine lies mostly in Wash ington County, where there are about 15o,000 acres known as the ''blueberry barrens." This land lies chiefly in the townships of Cherryfield, Columbia. Deblois, Beddington, Harrington, Jones' boro and Nos.f IS and 19 Recently a canning factory has been established at Vanceboro, for the utilization of the fruit in the northern part of the county. Much of this land was burned over by the Indians before the Colonial period, and since the timber was removed from the remainder,tit, too, has repeatedly been burned to keep down the growth of birches, alders. etc, and to facilitate the harvesting of the fruit.
 About sS, 900 acres cs.pfi iSss fses |sslrg l to wIflfam freeman of Cherry field, who may properly be regarded as the pioneer in the blueberry industry of America. After long and bitter liti- gation he proved beyond question his right to charge royalty for all fruit gathered on his lands, and established systematic method of treatment which is applicable, under most condi- tions, everywhere. The method is somewhat as follows:
 The land is divided into several tracts, each of which is leased to some responsible party who assumes the l whole care of burning, keeping off tres passers, harvesting and marketing the fruit. The owner receives, as rental, one-half cent a quart for all the fruit gathered.
 The piclkers receive from one and
 one-half to three cents a quart; those who lease the land and haul the fruit to the canning factory, or to the station for shipment, one-half of one cent a
 quart, the rate being determined in &C., cordance with the market values by the firm which handles the product. The fruit is all canned or shipped by one
 firm, which keeps a record of the amount as it is brought in and pays
 the royalty to the owner. Every year

performed on the girl to a woman and . one of the men now in custody. The Boston police feel that they have well ] in hand the major details of what for
 weeks has been a very bafaing case. The police intimate that they have evidence to show that other similar
 casss have occurred in this city and that the bodiss of several Of the vic- tins have been disposed of secretly. When asked tonight concerning the alleged confessions of Louis W. CraW- 1 ford and William Howard, the New York prisoners. Chief William B. 1 Watts of the Boston bureau of crimi- nal investigation, who has returned from that city, said:
 All I will say is that the confession
 of these two men is the most startling l and sensational story have ever
 heard. do not like to think of 1t. It is a terrible story and the most re-
 markabIe tale. I. in all my years of po-
 pice service. ever heard Of. believe that both men have told the whole truth, for never before in my life have
 ever heard the confession of a crim- A4idA su GO4LAiSkS All uELdh anu f1k4u HI its description. If it is ever given in it's entirety to the public. and hardly
 think it will be unless it comes out at the trial. the effsct upon the police will
 be stunning"
 The New York prisoners, Morris Ma ! than, who was brought here from
 Pittsbur, Pas, and Dr. Percy D. Mc- Leod, who was arrested in Boston on
 Friday, are all charged with the same
 crime, that of abortion, and according to the local authorities, there can be no mitigation of this charge, as it
 holds against any who may be in-
 volved in any way in such case. Ac-
 cording to the laws of this state, a
 charge of being an accessory in an
 abortion case cannot be made in a
 warrant against any person. Where a
 death occurs, the penalty in this state
 is not less than five nor more than
 twenty years in state prison.
 The police are still searching for Mrs. Mary s. Dean, said to have been
 houseke5per and nurse at the house
 where Miss Geary died. According to the police Mrs. Dean was one of those who cared for Miss Geary during her illness.

dl1cfed from the cash on deposit, bring ing the amount down to $24,066,367S5'
 The report discusses at length a pay~ rnent of S6O0000 in the form of 8 check drawn by the society to the Mercantile Trust company and dated February 4, 1904 As the books of the society did not show the consideration for this check the report says it was necessary for the examiners to consult with the sliperintendent of banks and look into the accounts of the trust company. The records of the society showed that s the amount involving the $600,OO0 check was closed to profit and loss on the soeiety's books on December 31, 1904, and it was learned that the trust com- pand credited on the "G. V. Turner loan" most of the money realized from this check. As this transaction and other transactions between the Equit- able and the trust companies do not ap- paar on the society's books the report states that the collaterals for such loans are not included in the report as as asset, nor are the society's guaran- tees in such transactions charged against it as a liability.
 Of the society's records the report has this to say:
 tn the investigation of other mat 4ers, where it became necessary to es- tablish the title to certain securities of which the society was at least the cus- todian, the incomplete and desultofy nature of the voucher records or au~ tFlorizations in writing, from which book entries connected with these transactions were ordered to be made, were so baff1ing as to render it practi- caIIy impossible to ascertain the status of these securities as to ownership, un- til recourse was had to sources entirely independent of the books or records Of the society"
 Computing the assets of the society after making deductions noted, the re- port states that the admitted assets are ' $406, ,073,063 and the total liabilities are estimated at the same amount. In ar irving at the total of the liabilities the total reserve, which includes the pres erlt valtle of all outstanding policies anc annuities, is estimated at $338,SS6, 12S

 The financial importance of the blue berry industry is very difficult even to estimate at the present time. In Maine the canning of blueberries is largely in the hands of a few leading packers.
