ATTACKED oLEo INTERESTS

Buffalo. N. Y.. Nov S.-Peter A. Porter, who defeated Congressman James w. Wadsworth in the thirty fourth district, is quoted in an inter view to-day as disclaiming what he called revolutionary" intentions. His present desires. he said, were limited to the putting into practice of the opinions which he had been placing before the people from the stump" during the campaign.
 Welfare of the Agricultural inter- ests which I represent will be my chief aim," said he. T have taken a stand in opposition to the oleomar- garine interests which shall main tain. and any attempt to annul the Legislation which imposed tax upon the hog product will meet with my determined opposition.
 "I am strongly in favor of the pro- posal to compel meat packers to stamp upon each can the date on which 1t was packed. This was cm- bodied in a clause in, the meat bill which was struck out by the commit tee of which MT Wadsworth was chairman. Those were clear cut is- sues of the campaign and it is may intention to carry out to the letter the opinions which I have expressed in connection herewith"

TEN COUNTIES NOT REPORTED

New York. Nov 8.---With nearly complete returns from flfty-one of the sixty-one counties in the state, Lewis Stuyvesant Chanler. the dem- ocratic and independence league can- didate for lieutenant governor. has . lead over NJ. Linn Bruce, the repub- lican candidate, of 2O.657. The miss- ing counties are Essex, Hamilton, Herkimer, Niagara. Ontario, Orange. Fulton, Monroe, Rockland and Yates. Estimated returns from Orange coun- ty give Bruce a plurality of 2,766 and an estimate from Monroe credits Bruce with a lead of $500 over Chanler. These figures deducted from Chanler's whole plurality. leaves him with a lead of 14,291 with eight counties still to be heard from The returns are coming in extremely slowly and the remainder of the state ticket Ia far from being as near com- plete as Is the total for lieutenant governor and the possibility of fore casting the probable result conse- quently so much more difficult.

SIR THOMAS UPTON Dinsd at The Elton and Msds a Tour Through the
 Factories GUEST OF A. Q. JENNINGS

Sir Tho1 has LiIt Iton, the Irish baro-
 net and q challenger. was in Wa terbury to-day the guest of A. o. Jennings, in company with Al l Ian w. Paige and number of other
 notables, including R. A. c. Smith, New York broker, and few other prominent yachtsmen from New York. The party came to New Haven l by boat and thence to Waterbury in Mir Paige's handsome trolley car. arr irving at the green in Waterbury shortly after 1 o'clock. The visitors went direct to The Elton where
 dinner had been prepared for about fourteen persons The car was ex- pected earlier, and those who were l in waiting to see MT Lipton indulged
 in all kinds of jokes regarding the cause of the delay, some claiming that the baronet was inspecting the
 Mad river out at the plant of the Mattatuck Mfg Co with view to finding out what facilities 1t anorded for boat race, while others insisted that the whole party had crossed lots over on to Bank street to take ln the mighty Naugatuck. There were several persons in the crowd who claimed to have known Lipton in his boyhood and some who often saw him later on were willing to wager that they could point him out in any crowd. They were right, too, for as soon as the men stepped on the plat | !, avA fo1 ro WY -hOn appearing fellow with a gray nous tachc and goatee appeared choruses of voices whispered, There he is. This is beautiful place" remark ed the baronet, as he looked across the green towards The Elton and turned his eyes in the direction of West Main street Mir Paige acted as chaperon and with his accustomed serious countenance led the process sion to The Elton.
 E. E. F. McMahon of the Democrat shook hands with the visitor and when he was introduced Sir Thomas smiled and said: Yours is 8 good old Irish name!"
 Immediately upon the arrival at the hotel the party was taken to the rooms of the Home club on the top floor. Shortly after they partook of a spread in the private dining room of the hotel The following sat at the table. Clay M. Greene of New York, the well known playwright who was on Wilson Marshall's At lantic in the race across the ocean; Wilson Marshall of Bridgeport, the owner of the Atlantic. who is a yachtsman of international fame; Colonel F. c. Neill of Glasgow, Sir Thomas's travelling companion; Frank Unger. Morton w. Smith, August M. Mott. Mir Wentworth. A. w. Paige. Fly Curtiss and A. o. Jennings and J. P. Goss of this city.
 Mir Paige was asked if Lipton's trip to this city was of a business na- ture, but the Bridgeport man replied that Sir Thomas had come merely for pleasure. He is eager to go through the New England Watch factory" said Mir Paige. T know not why, unless to see the plant. We will also go through the Scovill Manufactur- ing company's plant"
 Sir Thomas, according to Mir Paige, was much pleased with the trip from New Haven and said he would like to have home anywhere between this city and Cheshire.
 At 3:45 the party left for Bridge port where Sir Thomas will be ten dered a banquet by the Algonquin club this evening.

.CASTELANE DIVORCE
 SUIT Is SPICY American Lawyer Accused By Counts Attorney and Defended By the
 Counsel For Countess BRIBERY CHARGES FALSE Count Boni Trying to Prevent Their Children From Coming to
 United States.

Paris, Nov S.-The hearing of the Castellane divorce suit was resumed before Judge Ditte in the palace of justice to-day. Maitre Bonnet, of counsel for Count Boni de Castellane, consumed less than an hour in con cluding his argument for the count. He continued his criticisms of Ed mond Kelly, the American lawyer of the countess, and persisted in his de- mand for an examination of the wit nesses in order, he said, to permit of the case being probed to the bottom. Counsel added that in the event of divorce being granted the count asked for permission to see his chill dren two days each week and a month in summer, and that the coun- tess be enjoined from taking the chill dren to America without his consent. Counsel concluded with asserting that he was convinced that the coun- tess. if free to obey the dictates of her conscience, would yet consent to reconciliation, and solemnly as sured the court of the counts re- spect. esteem and undying affection for his wife.
 Maitre Cruppi, for the countess, in reply charged the counts lawyer with seeking to divert attention from the issue at the bar by making an un- precedented and baseless attack on MT Kelly. who, counsel declared. en- joyed a standing in the United States and France which made his defense superfluous, he being member of the New York bar and counsel for the United States legation for the past twenty years. Maitre Cruppi read a letter from Mir Kelly denying the charges made against him and saying that until the names of the persons mentioned were introduced by counsel for the count he had never heard of those he was supposed to have bribed.
 Maitre Cruppi then produced what he declared to be forged documents by which, counsel charged. the count in July last attempted to convince his wife. that Mir Kelly was concerned in plot to accomplish his political ruin.
 At the conclusion of the pleadings the case was adjourned for week.

MARRIED AMERICAN GIRL

Washington. Nov S.-Lord Curzon. former viceroy of India, is mentioned in diplomatic circles as possible successor to Sir Henry Mortimer Du- rand, the British ambassador to the United States. who is to give up his post and retire from the British diplomatic service next spring. The fact that Lord Curzon is now on the sea between Great Britain and this country, and has announced that ha will visit in this country for some time, lends color to the rumOr of his appointment to the Washington post. Lord Curzon is accompanied by Mrs Letter, the mother of Lady Curxon, who died short time ago.
 It was not possible to obtain any information at the British embassy concerning Sir Mortimer Durand's successor, but in official circles throughout Washington 1t is regard ed as likely that Lord Curzon may be given the post because of his wide acquaintance in the United States and his extensive experience in the British foreign service.
