Among the candidates for the speaker
ship of the 74th legislature is representa-
tive Howard Davies of the Yarmouth dis
trict and VINO has a law Office in Portland.
Mr.. Davies was one of the speakers at the
recent banquet Of the Maine Press Associa.
tion at the Augusta House and made most
favorable impression on his hearers. AS
we cannot permit the State House to be
moved to Portland, why not concede the
| speakership to Cumberland county as a
consolation prize? Hon. Bertram L. Smith
of Patten has been mentioned as a candi-
date for the speakership. but it is not be-
lieved that he has ambitions in that direc-
ton. He will no doubt again be a candi-
date for attorney general and in that case
may be picked as winner.

A stranger met in the rotunda of the State
House the other day, and who had been ex-
aiming the portraits of Maine men on the
walls, enquired if there was a portrait of
William Pitt Fessenden among them. He
was told that there was not, nor is there
one of Hon. James G. Blaine. These two
distinguished men should certainly have a
place in this Maine gallery. Some of the
portraits can hardly be called works of art
but are fairly good likenesses. The most
costly picture in the collection is said to be
that of Hon. E. c. Burleigh, a large full
length, and which hangs over the entrance
to the office of the Secretary of State.

STEAMER CARGO TAKES FIRE.
Monterey Is Beached While Crew
Fights Flames.


New York, July 7.-While the Ward
line steamer Monterey, Capt. Smith,
which arrived last night from Vera
Cruz, Progresso and Havana, was be-
ing inspected by the health officer at
quarantine, dense volumes of smoke
suddenly poured from the forehold,
where were stored 800 bales of hemp
and a quantity of sugar and wood.
The smoke was so dense that it
was impossible to get into the chain
locker to weigh anchor, and the
steamer was headed for the mud flats
of Clifton landing, where she was
beached. The captain did not sum-
mon assistance. but relied on the
steamers fire-ighting apparatus,
which proved sufficient. The fire was
discovered at o'clock and was under
control two hours later.
Part Of the cargo has been damaged
by fire and water.
The steamer had on board 12O pas
sengers, rs in the saloon, 80 second
cabin and IL steerage. Among these
there was considerable excitement for
time. but nothing approaching a
panic. Soon after the steamer ground
ed all but thirteen of the passengers
were taken off by tugs. The remain
ing passengers will be taken OFF to-
day

people, two women and three men,
while automobiling on the Riverside
boulevard, near the Town and Coun-

bankment 200 feet high. Two are
thought to be fatally hurt. The party
consisted of DR.. and Mrs. J. H. Mich
OILS, Mr.. and Mrs. j. A. Smith and c.

DR.. Nichols seems to be in the
most serious condition. Although no
fractures were found, he is cut and
bruised in all parts Of the body. His
scalp is torn in several places, his
cheeks are lacerated and he has null
tiple bruises about the body and legs.
He received internal injuries that
may prove fatal. He is painfully
bruised and last night was said to be
in a critical condition from the shock.
Mr.. and Mrs. Smith received many
cuts and bruises from rolling down
the embankment, and Mrs. Nichols
was also cut and bruised and cut. All
are suffering from shock.
When in the vicinity of Shadow
Falls the machine baked and DR..
Nichols got out and fixed it. The auto

SENDING FLEET 70 PACIFIC PART
OF PLAN WHICH SENT DRY
DOCK TO ORIENT.
NOTHING 10 DO WITH JAPAN B
POLICY OF LATE SENATOR DAVIS
is NOW BEING CARRIED
OUT.

Washington. July THE confirma-
ton by Secretary of the Navy Metcalf
of the plan to send naval fleet to
the Pacific waters, coupled with be-
lated admission at Oyster Bay of the
correctness of that report, is consider.
ed important for several reasons.
Of course this action on the part of
the administration has no connection
with the war scare about Japan, but
it is not out of place to say that what
ever of misinformation and scare
stuff has been floating throughout the
country has been due in part at least
to the want of candor among the Off
Gals of the government in dealing
with the subject.
1t is regarded as unfortunate in
every respect that in several of the de-
partments here, notably the state and
navy, there is disposition toward
secrecy and the giving of misleading
answers to direct questions, which
makes more for trouble than does all
the war scare stuff printed by the
yellow journals printed in this coun.
try and Japan.
The fact is that the sending of the
big ships of the navy to the Pacific is
in line with a policy adopted long ago,
and for which the preparations, in
Guiding the sending of the dry dock
Dewey to the Philippines, have been
in progress for two years.
Urged by Minnesotan.
More than this, it is due to the
memory of the late Cushman K. Da-
Wis, so long senator from Minnesota
and chairman of the foreign relations
committee of the senate, to say that
his policy is approved now that the
United States is devoting increased
attention to the Pacific.
Through all the later years of his
life Mr.. Davis omitted no opportunity
for directing attention to the increas-
ing Importance to the United States
of affairs in the Pacific. His views in
that direction were strengthened by
his service on the peace commission
after the Spanish war.
More Ships and More Men.
Ever since the acquisition of the
Philippines the government has been
engaged upon plans for Strengthening
its hands along the Pacific and doing
everything ossible to enforce the open
door policy in trade as we'll as to pro-
tect American interests in the Philip
pines and Hawaii, as we'll as in the
Orient generally. Much of the pres
ent program for the movement of bat
tleships constitutes a mere practice
cruise, but the larger part of the feet
will not be returned to the Atlantic
and the next session of congress will
witness increased pressure for more
ships and men to strengthen the navy
on both oceans.

Minneapolis, July 9. Minneapolis
ts built over series of subterranean
streams and lakes which have formed
great caverns in the sandstone under

fact has been known by the city engi-
neering department for six years, and
was not made public until Saturday
noon, when the final work of putting

that there had never existed any real
danger that the caverns which are
from 80 to $50 feet below the surface
OF the streets, would have given way.
But the city council has, under

Friedman identified dozen detectives
who succeeded in entering or getting
very close to the miners union in

GUS copies of the reports they made to
the agency for transmission to the

Spies Are Consistent.
Friedman was confidential stenog-

duties to copy the reports OF the opera
tives as they reached the Office.

diture in behalf of the strikers. and
failing in this he cut the relief down to
the lowest point in the hope that the
members OF the union might censure

Boise, Idaho, July 3.-Morris Fried
man. the stenographer who left the
employ of the Pinkerton agency at
Denver to write book in which lie
published certain correspondence OF
the agency that passed through bis
hands, was again yesterday the prin.
cipal figure at the Steunenberg mur-
der trial. More than half of the day
was occupied in reading to the jury
copies of the documents that Fried.
man took from the Pinkerton records.
They were chiefly the daily reports Of
secret agents operating as spies among

of the Western Federation of Mine
Workers of America during the labor
troubles in Colorado in 10000. Pink.
erton men sat in the Federation con.
vention at Denver in 1904, reporting
all proceedings. None of the reports
that were read to the jury contained
other than general references to the
collateral issues of the trial, but they
were offered in substantiation of the
claim of the defense that the Pinker-
ton agency conspired for the destruc-
ton of the Western Federation of
Miners and the lives of it's leaders.
State Attacks Friedman.
The prosecution attacked Friedman
on the ground that he had played the
Pinkertons false, had violated his
pledge to them and had stolen the
documents which he produced, but the
witness would not admit that he mad
stolen the papers. He insisted that it
was not stealing to take information
that had been obtained by deceit. He
said that if he had known this trial
was coming up he would have taken
many more letters and reports.

several instances as tending to show
the misuse of the power of the militia
by the mine owners; gave the criminal
records of some of the gun fighters
imported by the mine owners; told OF
the working of the card system; re
cited the circumstances connected
with the footing of the union stores

he saw K. c. Sterling, chief detective
for the mine owners, fire the first shot
