discovered a motive for the crime
which is believed without doubt to
have been committed, which is the
most salient point in the case.
From information acquired at this
examination it was the decision of the
authorities that one Fred Davis of
Chelsea was the man whose presence
was wanted in order to secure the de-
sired information, and early in the
afternoon Sheriff Plaisted and Deputy
Sheriff Fletcher went out to Chelsea
for the purpose if possible of learn
ing of Davis whereabouts. They first
visited the scene of the tragedy and
from there went to the Joseph HOyt
place on the Mud Mills road, the house
being the last one in Augusta. they
having learned that Davis had been
there. From Hoyt they learned that
the man they were looking for had
not been there since Thursday.
Leaving the Hoyt place they drove
on to the Frank Mccormick place. and
there they got their first tangible clue.
From Mrs. Mccormick they learned
that Davis had been there, also a wo-
man who afterward proved to be one
Lillian Chamberlain and that the two
had gone off together across the fieiu
and into the woods. The two officers
at once started in pursuit but after
following the tracks of the man and
woman for about half a mile, lost
them. At that time, feeling that the
chase was apt to be a long one, the
officers turned back and making their
way to the nearest telephone, and
Deputy Sheriff Fletcher summoned ad-
ditional officers, which call was rs
sponded to by Officers Coigan and
Perham and Special Officers Bis
son, Randall and Buckley.
On the arrival of the officers the
woods in which Davis and the woman
had disappeared We're surrounded and
thorough search was begun, which
later proved successful, the man and
woman being found by Officers Colgan
and F'erran, where they were hiding
in the woods, having chosen as their
hiding place a hut known as Shaws
camp, located on the shore of ToguS
stream and about three fourthS of a
mile from the house in which Durham
was killed. Davis did not make any
resistance nor did the woman, nor did

In the Morse and Curtis
Trial in New York CITY
So Long That a Verdict Will
Not Be Secured Today.
Judge Hough Will Charge Jury
Probably Wednesday Morning.

New York, Nov. 2.-An election day
verdict by the jury which is considre
irg the cases of Charles w. Morse and
Alfred II. Curtis, former officials of the
National Bank of North America on
trial in the United States court here
charged with violation of the national
banking laws, was rendered Improbable
today. Some time was taken up with
arguments on various motions and the
beginning of the summing up was de-
layed long beyond the time which had
been tentatively set. Tomorrow. 1t now
appears will be occupied with the con-
cluding arguments by the prosecution
and the defence so the case is not like
" to go TO the jury until some time on
Wednesday,
The attorneys for Morse and Curtis
began the final moves in the case to-
day by securing the dismissal of the
counts in the indictment against their
clients referring to the Calvin Austin
loan of 100000 in connection with
which misappropriation had been

defence of Morse laid great stress on

His client. he protested, was neither

stood firm. making good every promise
and carrying out every argument. He
had met all his obligations: the $2le,-

ternity. If he had erred, it was only
in raposng too great faith in the fl
nanc;al responsibility of Mr.. Morse, Mr.
Olcott declared. In accepting the lat
ter's guarantee, said the attorney, Cur
t's had been guided by the fact that
through him the bank had benefited
to the extent of s134,0O0, made in Ice
stock transactions. No motive whatever
could be advanced as to why Curtis
should endanger his bank, said Mr.. Oh
colt
At this point the advanced hour
caused an adjournment to be taken
until tomorrow at 1.30. During the
morning the jurors will be taken under
guard to their various polling places
in order that they may exercise their
privilege as voters.
After Mr.. Olcott has concluded his
summing up for Curtis. United States
District Attorney Stimson will sum
un for the prosecution.
The indications are that Judge Hough
will not make his charge before
Wednesday morning the case going to
the jury at its conclusion, probably in
the afternoon.

Every Indication Points to An Overwhelming IViC-
tory For the Republicans Today and the Cause
Of BryanSm to Be Settled For All Time.
THE NEW CONGRESS.

Washington, Nov. 2.-The cOmputors
of probable election results, Of whom
Washington boasts more than her
share, are not permitting the over
shadowing Importance of the Presi-
dental contest to cause them to close
their eyes to the circumstances that a
new Congress will come in with tho
new President whoever he may be, and
there is much concern regarding it's
political complexion. All conccde that
there is no possibility of a Democratic
Senate but there is room for specula-
tion regarding the House of Repre-
Sentatives.
Before the adjournment of the last
session the Democratic leaders in the
House made no effort to conceal their
intention of "going after that i'm
portant legislative body and while their
Republican opponents met these taunts
with smile they have not been un-
concerned. They knew that the present
Republican control may be reversed by
changes in comparatively close Con-
gressional districts. They are awake
to the fact that even a less disastrous
revolution than, took place in 1906
would cause the change they fear, for
the Democrats then captured % dis
tricts. which had been held by Repub-
licans, whereas only % reversals would
now be necessary to give the House to
the Democrats. They are exerting
themselves to prevent any such change.
The Republicans are using the possi-
BILE effect of a Democratic House upon
tariff legislation as the principal rea-
son for preventing such result.
They contend that it would inevita-
t5ly prevent such revision along pro-
tcctive lines as Is now planned by
them. Confessing that they would not
work altogether on Republican lines.
the Democrats assert that a real revi-
sion of the tariff will be much mora
certain with Democratic than with
Republican House.
The Democratic managers make no
secret of the fact that they are giving
their especial attention to the close dis
tricts. to those having Republican ma
joriies of 1000 and less. There are many
such in the Mississippi valley states
and in these they are doing their most
earnest work. At the same time they
are not sighting the labor districts Of
the Eastern sttaes. They contend that
prospects are good. ~ .f
The Republicans make no conces-
sions, but even claim Increased Repuh-
lican representation in the 61st Con-
g,'eSs. '.>T
"rhe country" they say. "will not
place the revision of the tariff in the
hands of the enemies Of tariff"
Both sides are counting much upon
the personal popularity of their respec-
tive Presidential candidates in shaping
the Congressional result.

Portland, Me-. Nov. 2-The third ex-
tensive robbery from Portland stores

fUrs from the store of the j. E. Pal
iner Co. Only the choicest goods wer>-
taken The other robberies were $4,000
worth of goods from the hair store of
A. Carlos and $1,000 worth of jewelry
from the Providence Jewelry Co. All
the stores are near together in the
shopping district.
A petition asking for authority to
borrow $1,1OO,O00 from banking house
in Boston with which to meet the
claims against the Eastern Steamship
Co. were presented in the United States
circuit court Monday by Charles f.
Libby of this city in behalf of the di-
rectors Of that company, who had
voted that such action be taken
1t was understood that the banking
house was that of Hayden, Stone &
Co. and that Mr.. Stone had been elect
ed treasurer of the Eastern Steamship
Co. The petition asked that permission
be given to borrow the sum on the
company's notes, endorsed by Hayden
Stone & Co. the money to be used to
liquidate outstanding claims against
the steamship company and prevent
the sale of the cOmpany's assets in the

factory and was well pleased with it,
He returned to Boston and this morn
ing the committee of the stockholders
owning the mil! headed by Frank DeX-
ter went to Boston to hold a conference
with Mr.. Douglass and hoped to be
able to close the deal. If the Douglas
people take the factory it will be en-
larsed in the spring to capacity of
5000 pairs of shoes a day with a week.
ly pay roll of $4,000. This will mean
1000 operatives and an addition to the
population of Springvale of 5000 people.
The Douglas Co. may sign a lease for
either five or 10 years.
Mr.. Douglas, who has always been
known rs one Of the fairest employers
Of labor in New England, has been
having some difficulty with the unions
and it is said that he intends to split
up his factory and take it out of
Brockton and will locate one branch
at Nashua, N. H., and the other in
Springvale The lease was to be gone
over this morning, and if it is signed,
