THE BIG GAIN IN MAINE.

Referring to the Maine election a
Portland dispatch carr ed by the AS
ISOLATED Press said:
The feature of the election was the
Increase in the Democratic vote
throughout the state. Every one Of
the four congressional districts
showed gains, the increase over 1904
being $4,000 votes, and 1000 over
1906"
In the state of Arkansas the Demo-
cratic state ticket was elected by a
majority which the Associated Press
says may exceed that received by
Gov. John S. Little two years ago,
more than $4,000" 9NN
Certainly the frit 5 of Mr.. Taft
must whistle vigoro ~ if they are
to keep up their courage in the light
of returns from Maine and Arkansas.

The Methodist conferences continue

: The Methodist conferences continue
to denounce Speaker Cannon because
he refuses to let proposed laws have
a hearing. 1t is all right to vote
against Cannon for his dictation as to
what legislation shall or shall not be
considered, but it is essential also to
vote out the Republican party that
makes Cannon's boss-ship possible. De-
feat of Cannon is good, but would not
remedy the situation unless the Re-
publicans are turned out. If Republi-
cans win, and Cannon is defeated, the
same iron rules will be carried out by
a Sherman or a Dalzell, or some other
Republican pupil of Cannon.

But the good E. H. Harriman's gift OF

fund four years ago looked to the

ST1Ps CRAzED
HORSE, NARROWLY
ESCAPES INJURY
Francis Trembley, Public Serv-
ice Employee, Gets Animal
After Lamppost Is Broken.

While making an effort to stop a
horse he was driving from continuing
on a mad rampage, Francis Trembley,
who is employed in the distribution de-
partment of the Public Service Cor
poration on North Park street, East
Orange, and who is well known for
his athletic capabilities, had a narrow
escape from possible injury and had an
exciting experience yesterday. Trem-
bley had made a stop on Mitchell place,
East Orange, to make a gas connec-
ton. The lines fell to the street and
the animal started paving at them.
Finally the reins were. moved near the
animals forward feet. When Trembley
got on the vehicle he saw what hap
pened. The horse started forward, and
when it stepped on one of the reins
broke a section Of the birdie and the
bit fell out of the horses mouth. Then
Trembley's troubles began. He was
unable to get near the animals head
and things looked blue. He decided to
show his agility and climbed over the
dashboard, got a tight hold on the back
of the horse and started to choke or
it's wind. The exciting ride attracted
considerable attention. For WI blocks
Trembley worked like a trojan to be-
come master of the situation, but did
not win out until the horse crashed
into a lamppost. The only damage was
to the vehicle.

NO ENGAGEMENT
TO DUG DAbRUzZl,
SAYS MRS. ELK|NS
Says She Is Unaware That
Daughter Is to Wed Ital-

ELKINS, w. Va, Oct. 9.-Although
the Information comes from Italy that
the engagement of Miss Katherine Ell
kins and the DUO d'Abruzzi has been
announced and she will become his
bride December 10, Mrs. Elkins denies
rel the existence of an engagement.
There certainly has been no IN
nouncement OF Katherine's engagement
to the DUO d'Abruzzi made by me, and
no one has a right to make such an an
nouncement but I. her mother.
1T would seem that the papers were
afraid my daughter was destined to
become a hopeless old maid, the way
they engage her to people. 1t has been
someone ever. since she came out, and
her engagement to the Due d'Abruzzi
is by far the most persistent rumor. l
will tell you now that. when my daugh-
ter is engaged I will take 1t upon my
self to notify the editors Of all the
papers. SO that there will be no mis-
take. At the present time there is no
announcement to make"
Mrs. Elkins has no objection to Amer
lean girls marrying titled foreigners.
She says:
1T is a pity when a girl marries a
man unworthy of her. as has been the
case with many Of the titled marriages,
but when there is love on both sides 1t
doesn't in the least matter to a girl or
to a man, if 1 am any Judge of human
nature, whether he is a titled man or a
shoe clerk or she a princess or a stenog-
rapher."

GREAT REVIVAL IN PIG
IRON MARKET FORECAST.
Inquiries of Large Tonnage
Feature of Week, with Quick
ened Demand by BUYERS.

CLEVELAND, May 21.-The Iron
Trade Review today says: A revival
of buying interest in pig iron has
featured the iron and steel situation of
the past week. Inquiries of so large a
tonnage by comparison and of so gen.
eral a character have appeared as to
afford the belief to fupnacemen that
the turn in the market as respects pig
iron has come. Buyers also appea to
be approaching a conviction that pres
ent prices are close to the bottom and
that their best interests demand their
taking advantage of existing conditions.
Whatever may be the basis upon
which the quickened demand is placed,
there is much encouragement to be
found in the development, and there
has been a ~perceptible Frightening of
spirits among pig iron makers. With
pig iron in a more stable position, de-
pendent lines, notably the castings in
dustry, are expected to improve. and
the influence to work toward better
conditions generally in iron and steel.

OF STOCK MARKET
Selling Orders Have Adverse FL
feet and Unstable COndi-

NEW YORK, May 21-The small ir-
regular price changes at the opening of
the stock market today offered no
striking feature and the trading was
quiet.
II a. m.-Little sympathy was shown
by the general list with the rise of 1
in Missouri Pacific and Colorado Fuel
and 3A in Consolidated Gas. Large
selling orders were executed s%imultane-
ously in the principal railroads and
specialties and prices dropped rapidly
until the average level of about twenty
stocks was a point or more below yes
terday's closing. The extreme weak
ness of Baltimore and Ohio. which lost
3 points, was a considerable factor in
the decline. The market recovered
fractionaly later, but showed little sta
bility.
Noon-There was a substantial rally
when Erie and the first preferred rose
11s, but prices receded again to a lower
level than before. A rise of a point in
American Smelling steadied the market
at noon. Bonds were irregular.
l p. m.-American Smelling reached
1885, a rise of 3 points, before the Of
ferings proved sufficient TO drive 1t
back to 70. The rest of the list lacked
feature.
? p, ma sharp rally late in the day
was attended by considerable activity
and breadth. The Western stocks were

led by Union Pacific, but there was a
