STEAMER HAS
FIERCE BATTLE
WITH HIGH SEAS

Portland. Me. Nov 2-The officers of
the Bay state which arrived late last
night after a trip OF IL hours from Bos-
ton. admitted that IL was one OF the
fiercest battles with wind and waves they
have had in years. Ordinarily the pas
sage is made in seven or eight hours. She
got under way at a. m, went a little
way outside Boston harbor and returned
to her berth. Two hours later she started
again and was in the teeth OF the strong
gale all the way to Portland. The seas
were running unusually high. The steam
er was tossed about and the majority OF
the passengers were nauseated.
The steamer ST. Croix Of the Interna-
tional division also experienced a rough
trip from St John to this port.
Conditions in this harbor were wild
early today, but moderated later. About
o'clock the wind commenced TO blow
almost n gale and the first snow OF the
season began 10 fall thckly. The snow
continued during the day. but partially
melted after reaching the ground and did
not make much OF a showing.

Mr.. RILEY OF

Ever since the Democratic city conven-
ton met and nominated Timothy J. Riley
for mayor, there have been i'm circulation
on the streets some ugly rumors to the
effect that Messrs. Foy and Rattey had
engineered deal which resulted in the
turning down OF the present incumbent OF
that office.
Mr.. Riley last night i'm Forester's hall

were absolutely untrue, and that ne hdd
made no agreement last June or any
other time until two days before he re-
ceived the nomination that he would ac-
cept the honor IL rendered.
