Ths murderer is still at large. Tho muir
der 10 supposed 70. have resulted from
hard feeling, which has existed between
the men for some time.
Stulvaslcy was at work In the quarry
yesterday afternoon with John Hoodick,
!, these two being the only men at work.

diately.

eral citizens, started in pursuit. They
followed the murderer TO a dee sc piece
of woods, where all trace was lost, al
though they secured the country for
some time. They then returned and
started for Granville, N. Y, just across
the state line, In hopes Of heading him
off.

vERMoNr's GASES.

Although the number OF license towns
in Vermont remain exactly the same
as the result Of yesterdays election, the
no-lieense sentiment seems to have gained
considerably throughout the state. There
are twenty-seven towns in the "Yes" col.
umn this year, against the same last
year. Rutland City went for no-hcense
this year, while st. Adams City went
into the wet column again. Northfeld is
the only licensed town in Washington
county.
Caledonia county is all dry again, as is
Windsor county. Orleans has a single
license town, Westmore, where a small
majority won out. Baltimore in Windsor
county did not have single yes vote
all its seven being no. The majority in
Hartford was $50 no.
In Addison county, Orwell and YER
geHnes vote yes with Shoreham, while
Hancock goes no.
In Chittenden county there are again
ter, Shelburne aud WiIliston, Richmond
going no by one vote with two blanks in
the box. Williston was dry last year.
Bennington county has Bennington and
Searsbnrgh in the yes column but loses
Pownal. The vote in Bennington was re-
dueed to l92 majority. Searsburgh went
yes 7, no 5. Winhall also went license,
40 to 42.
Essex county has Canaan wet, as DUR
ing the past year, but East Haven votes
no. Canaan's vote was III to 55 and
East Haven's to 80. Norton went no,
Ia TO IL.
In Franklin county, Highgate again
went for license while Fletcher takes
the place Of Bakersfield and st. Albans
City that of Swanton.
Isle La Motto is again Grand Isles
single license town.
In Lamoille county Stowe changes from
license to no license and Morristown
from dry to wet.
Braintree remains license town in
Orange county, but Corinth goes no. The
vote in Braintree was yes S5. no III.
Rutland county has five license places
as compared with six the past year,
Brandon going no by 272 to 3l4 Rutland
City following suit as aforementioned,
and Fair Haven voting yes with the 1908
wet towns, Castleton, Poultney, Wells
and West Rutland. The vote in Rutland
City was: yes 1911, no 1896, no major
ity IS; in 1908, yes majority l24. Mount
Tabor went yes by 32 to 10.
Washington county loses it's saloon in
Middlesex and is solidly no license with
the exception Of Northfeld, which chang
ed columns with Middlesex.
In Windham county little Somerset
goes solidly for no license, with. five yes
votes and none no, Vernon il also license
but faces a difficult proposition, as the
law passed by the recent legislation pro-
hibits saloon within two miles Of the
state line. Vernon's saloon is well with
in that distance Of the New Hampshire
line, and doubt reigns as to what is
to be done.

CLERGYMAN SHOT
CRAZY DRUNK MAN
A Valet at Temple, N. H., Ran Amuck
at Temple, N. H., and Dehed At
tempts to Be Taken.

Temple. N, H., March s.--iWhilc crazed
with drink, George L. Narcotic, valet
In the employ Of Brig. Gen. James Mill
or, U. $. A., (retired) ran amuck late
yesterday and after shooting at sew
eral villagers, who attempted to disarm
him; was shot and killed by the Rev.
Harvey Eastman, pastor OF the local
Congregational church The tragedy oc-
Cured at Gen. Nliller's residence on the
Wilton road, one and one half miles
from Temple. Narcotic had been drink
ing freely for some time. Yesterday af
ternoon be became uncomfortable and
seeing one Of Gen. Miller's pistols, dis.
charged it at random and drove the
General and his housekeeper from the
house.
General Miller telephoned to Temple
for assistance and in response eight
men, armed with shot guns and revol-
yers, hastened to the Miller homestead
They surrounded the house hoping to
induce Narcotic 10 surrender, but the
valet refused TO do so and maintained
his threatening attitude.
Finally Narcotic left the house by
the back door. The Rev. Mr.. Eastman
and Davidson were nearer TO Narcotic
than tho others and endeavored TO per-
suade the insane man to lay down his
pistols. A shot was the invariable reply
As last resort, Davidson, who was
armed with revolver, fired at Mar
cote, but missed him. The valet con-
tinued to shoot but his aim was so
wild that he did not hit anyone.
Finally the Rev. Mr.. Eastman pointed
shot gun at the valet and demanded
that he surrender. To save his life the
minister discharged the gun, the con-
tents striking Narcotic in the forehead
and killing him.
The authorities took no action, except
to hold formal inquest. Narcotic was
35 years of age and had been in the
service of Gen. Miller three years. He
was unmarried
The Rev Mr.. Eastman il about 25
years old and has been stationed in
Temple two years.

Did Barre's Dry Majority Yesterday OF
225 Votes.

The no.license majorityhn Barre yes
terday was so large that even the no.
license workers were somewhat surprised.
The majority was 225, two less than
at first reported, because Of an error in
the returns from the fourth ward. Last
year the majority for mo" was only
80. Wards one, three, four and six
showed decided gains for the no-license
side, while ward two lost one and ward
fve took decided preference for license,
giving 100 majority this year against 90
last year.
The total vote cast on the license issue
was 1919 out Of 1870 on the checklist.
Outside Of the local option question and
the three aldermanic elections, there was
nothing but the sense OF duty to draw
out the voters.
A comparison of the local option vote
Of the two years is interesting, as here

RAILROAD TELLS OF IMPROVE
MENTS FOR HANDLING FREIGHT

Port Superintendent H. C. Coburn
of the Kauai railroad is among the
visitors in this city and is being con-
graduated over the birth of a son to
Mrs Coburn. He tells an interesting
story of the big improvements which
have been made at EleeIe, or Port
Allen, as the Kauai railroad people pre-
fer to have it called. In speaking of
this to a Star reporter this morning he
said:
You would be surprised to see the
amount of work which we do in the
course of as eason at Port Allen. Take
the remainder of this month for in
stance. The next boat to arrive will
be the Pleiades, which is due Friday.
She will discharge 500 tons of freight
and take on 1900 tons of sugar. The
Hyades, which is due on Tuesday next
will discharge about 300 tons of freight
as well as 10000 feet of lumber and
will carry away 800 tons of sugar. On
about May q we shall have the British
steamer Lord Derby in port, bringing
60OO tons of coal for use on Kauai and
on May q the American Hawaiian
steamer Texan is due, with a cargo of
general merchandise and after dis
charging this she will load sugar.
During the present year we will
handle some over $4,000 tons of freight,
which about As, 600 ttons will be the SUI
gar which is being exported from Kau-
al. This can be done very well on
account Of the unusually fine ware
house facilities which we have. The
new sugar Warehouse which was erect
ed during the spring is the finest in
the islands. 1t has a capacity of o.
600 tons of sugar and is completely
fitted win Electrical ccnycGyors, which
reduce The labor needed to mini
mum On the ground floor there are
four Longitudinal CCnveyors, while
overhead are two ether conveyors for
piline. Under tn warehouse are two
more conveyOrs which take the sugar
from the warehouses; to the wharf
You can get some idea of how well
we can handle sugar from the fact that
when the sugar is coming into the
warehouse AT the rate of 500 tons, or
5000 bags per day, only six men are
needed to handle it, When a steamer
is being loaded, with a gang of twenty
men, we can handle 1000 bags in
day without difficulty. The power
used is electrical and all comes from

BREAKING
CABLES CAUSED
INDICTMENT

The United States Grand jury for
the Southern District of New York
has just found an Indictment against
Robert McMullen, master of the dredge
OnOndaga belonging to the Newark
Meadows improvement Company for
breaking on January %, two cables be-
longing to the New England Telegraph
Company a part of the Commercial Ca
bic postal telegraph system, these ca
bles being cables running under the
North river from New York city to Jer-
sey City. The Indictment is for viola
ton of the United States statutes Which
were enacted for the protection or ca
bles. 1t seems that the dredge was at
work in the North river in connection
with the McAdoo tunnel which runs
from Jersey city to Cortland St, New
York, and disrupted these cables with
out making any effort whatsoever to
avoid doing so. Ii is stated that the
cables contained fifty-five wires and
that it required two days to repair
them and in the meantime the tele-
graph business over the wires was
entirely interrupted. In case of con-
yiction the penalty may be two years
Imprisonment and five thousand dol
lars fine.
This is the first Indictment ever founG
against a moster or owner of a vessel
for damaging a telegraph cable. 1t is
of great Importance to masters and
owners as well as telegraph and cable
