REPUBLICANS WIN
IN MAINE ELECTION
Majority Retained in Legis-
lature Despite Victories
by Democrats.

Augusta, Me-, Sept. 14.-The republi-
can party was victorious i'm the state
election today, Bert Nj. FernaId being
chosen governor over Obadiah Gard
ner, democrat, and all four republican
candidates for congress winning.
The plurality received by the repub-
licans, however, was cut to less than
10 900, for the first time in a presi1
Dental year for more than twenty five
years. Returns from $50 out of $40
cities, towns and plantations gave Fer
Maid 71,714; Gardner, 62,62S. The same
places in 1904 gave Cobb, rep, 74,419;
Davis, dem, 49,141. The remaining
places in 1904 gave Cobb 2,545; Davis.
1905.
Democrats Make Gains.
These figures indicate a republican
loss of per cent and democratic
gain of 32 per cent.
The total vote cast today was in the
neighborhood of 140. 900, which is with
in few thousand of the record for the
state.
The next legislature undoubtedly
will be republican, but the majority
| VIII De greatly reduced because OF the
number of victories scored in today's
contest by the democrats. No United
States senator will be chosen until
/ 1911
| In this election the state issues have
/ largely predominated. There is nc
/ doubt that hundreds of men who today
! vbted the democratic ticket will in
November vote for Taft and Sherman
The prohibitory liquor law issue en-
tered largely into the fight and nj
doubt the vote of the cities and tn,
larger towns which is favorable t.
the democracy hinged entirely upon thu
so-called liquor question.
/ Another feature which cut into tn
republican plurality was the persona
| acquaintance of Mr.. Gardner among tn
| farmers of the state For ten year
he was master of the patrons of hus
| bandry of the state and this fact gain
| ed for him many votes among tn
Farmers and other laboring men.

MINING CONGRESS ! OPENED TODAY.
Delegates Gather b plttshWg to Discuss Problems.

Pittsburg. Dec. 2.--Delegates from all parts of the United States convened here today in the opening session of the American mining congress. They were received with addresses of well come by city officials, who dwclt on the importance of the objects of the congress.
 The purpose of the congress is the promotion of uniform state legislation relating to the mining industry, the protection of the lives of mine work CTS, the protection of investors in mine stocks and the prevention of unneces- sary waste. During the sessions of the congress addresses on these and related topics will be delivered by prominent men, among whom James J. Hill. Edward H. Hartman and John Hays Hammond are counted upon.
 One of the most interesting features of the congress will be the gathering on Friday of governors of states flu which mining is an important indus try. Governor Stuart has sent invita- tions to the governors of sixteen states, and many of them have signihed their intention of being present. Several United States senators will also take part in the discussion, which is ex- pected to bear fruit in the establish ment of mining reforms in the states as we'll as in the enactment of reform atory federal legislation.

BABY EMPEROR
 IS ENTHRONED.
Pu Ii, Three Years Old, Assumes
 Rule Of China Today,

Pekin, Dec. 2.-With all the ancient ceremonial that has grown around the throne of China in the course of cen turies the little three-year-old ruler of the Middle Kingdom, Pu Yi, was enthroned today.
 Mandarins and other officials, re. splendent in the particolored jackets that mark their dignities. assembled here from all parts of the empire to give personal testimony to their loyal. ty to the new regime. It had been understood that the ceremony of en- thronement would be postponed until the latter part of January, on the Chi. nese New Years day, when the era of the late Emperor Kwang Seu would have ended. Owing to the desire of the official class to have its status settled. as soor as possible the cere- monies were fixed for today's date.
 All of. the prominent Chinese whose names are known to foreigners were present at the ceremonies. Among them were Yuan Shi Kai, Prince Chung. Chang Chin Tung and Chen Tung Liang Chang. former minister to the United States.
