Democratic Ticket
COMMITTEE Is in SESSION
Foss and Attorney Pelle
tier Are Said to Be Eliminated
from Consideration-De Decision
Next Week.

Boston, Oct. S.--The Democratic nomi-
mating committee, which was authorized
by the state convention, met here to-
day and is considering the names OF
candidates for governor and lieutenant-
governor. 1t is announced that Con-
gresham Foss and attorney Pelletier
are out OF the race, but the whole situa.
tion is chaotic. It is expected that
the work to-day viii be only wedding
out of the names, and it is not likely
that the final announcement of candi-
dates win be made until next week.
One of the surprising developments is
the fact that time for fling convention
nominations for state Ulcers did not ex-
pire at $50 p. m. yesterday, as was
stated in the convention One of the
principal reasons advanced for selecting
compromise candidate was the claim that
unless nominations were filed by $50
p. m yesterday they would not appear
on the ballot for the November election.
At the office of the secretary of state
it was said that the time for filing nom
nations does not expire until Monday,
October 10.

Worst Conflict Since Initial
Revolutionary Outbreak
MONASTERY is CAPTURED
King Manuel Was Formally Exiled To-
day by the New Republic of Portu-
gal-He Is Reported to Have
Suicided.

Lisbon, Oct. s.-The formal exile was
declared to-day Of King Manuel, Queen
Mother Ameil, the Duke of 0porto and
Dowager Queen Maria Pia by the re.
public of Portugal" The reports of
Manuers attempt at suicide have not
been confirmed. President Braga of the
new republic declared to-day that the
situation in the provinces is very encour-
aging, and that there is little chance Of
royalist movement against the cap
ital. The royalists and clericals who
are most active against the new gov
ernment are to be executed. Many mon
asteries and converts, where immense
wealth is stored, are to be coniscated.
One of the worst conflicts since the
initial outbreak took place to-day at
Quehos monastery, which was captured
after a heavy artillery fight, in which
several monks were killed The fight
was started by monks, who attacked a
party of passing reyolutionists in re-
venge for the bombardment of the mon
astery on Wednesday. A rife fight en-
sued and the monks were winning till
the arrival of the artillery. A dozen
were killed and scores were injured on
both sides

STUDIED ROADS AND SCENERY.
Washington County Legislators and
Guests Put in Profitable Day.

The good roads tour Of Washington
county legislators, with invited guests,
turned out to be most profitable, the
threatening weather Of the morning
clearing and permitting the sixteen anto
loads Of men to put in busy and in
teresting day. The trip took about two
hours each way, leaving Montpelier about
9 o'clock in the morning and returning
there at 4 in the afternoon. The party
went through Williamstown gulf to
Bethel and had dinner, then returning
through Randolph, Randolph Center and
Berlin.
Road commissioners Of the different
towns through which the party passed
were on hand to exchange IDEAS and the
roads were found in excellent condition.
As auto drivers, some objection was
raised 10 50 many water bars on the
hills, but, as in all matters, there are
two sides to tnis question. Aside from
this, there was no criticism Of the roads,
except Of their narrowness in places.
OF the whole trip, the road through Will
Jamestown was the best and it is un-
derstood thai the road commissioner
there is IS years of age On mucn Of
the route. the soil was Of elav. making
q firm roadbed. The whole trip was
given over to the discussion Of the good
roads problem, nothing being allowed to
interfere with the subject in hard and
much vaIable data was obtained Judg-
ing BY the conversation Of Governor
Mead, ne viii be strong advocate Of
road improvement.
The stop in Bethel was taken advan-
tage Of in calling on A. p Huuton, aged
% years, who was formerly a speaker
Of the House. and in visiting the church
at Bethel, Gilcad, where Salmon p
Chase, treasurer Of the United States
during the Civil war, used to attend
service The Hibbard place, one Of the
original Morgan horse farms, was also
pointed out to the party.
The most beautiful part Of the trip
was over the hills in Orange county,
where the scenery Of the mountains be-
yond was grand All acknowledged that
the trip had been worth while and its
benefits will probably be worked out in
later legislation.

SENSATION
In RUTLAND
In Suit Against l.. H. McIntire,
Prominent Citizen
BY RUTLAND GAS COMPANY
Plaintiff Claims That Mr.. McIntire Has
Been Getting Gas for Two Years
Which Was Not Registered
on Meter.

Rutland Oct. s.--Ilucien II. McTntire,
a prominent citizen ard business man,
has been sued in trover BY the Rutland
Railway Light and Power company,
claiming $1,000 and alleging that the de-
fendant tapped gaspipe, the property
of the plaintiff, which was situated in
the defendants residence on Center
street, also that be took a meter be.
longing to the company. The case is re-
turnable at the March term of county
court.
The writ alleges that the defendant
in the case tapped one of their gaspipes
in the cellar OF mis- home and by means
Of rubber hose carried it around the
meter into the outlet pipe, thus getting
the benefit of the company's produce
without having it registered This the
company claim has been going on for
over two years and the discovery was
made by an Inspector, who reported to
the office, Several officials Of the com
pany went to the house unknown to
the owner and investigated.
One Of the officials Of the company
said that several months ago the com
pany missed a gas meter. No trace Of
il could be found and the matter drifted
along, but continued search on the part
Of the employees Of the gas department
failed to discover its whereabouts. Dur
ing this time the various inspectors
about the city noticed that the read
ings on the meter at the McIntire house
were exceedingly low for the size Of the
house. Three different inspectors had
read the meter during this period Fin
ally an Inspector dropped into the mouse
and discovered reading of more than
500 worth Of gas. The number Of the
meter was taken as Is always the case,
and at the Office it was discovered that
the number was not the same as was
generally read on the Mclntire meter and
further investigation showed that this
number coTresponded with the meter
which had been lost for several months,
The other meter has never showed up
and it i claimed that Mr. Melntire Aas
this in his possession.
"We believe that he used to install
the original meter. which was at first
supposed to be lost, about the last Of
every month, said the officials, "and
thus escape paying the BILL When the
trick was discovered he made way with
the other meter"
Those going to the house September
2d, when evidence was secured on the
tapping case, included several Of the Of,
iieials Of the company and deputy saer-
if Whitaker. They claim the rubber
pipe was found in place and beside the
meter were found two plugs, which were
used about the first Of the month, while
the reading was being taken and the
hose removed. the gas coming through
the inlet pipe would follow the least
resistance aud in this way escaped going
through the meter Mr. McTntire is one
Of the most prominent citizens of Rut-
land, being at one time a prominent pol
itIcian and holding an aldermanic Of.

large circulations. He said those maga-
zines had been presenting the unfavor-
able side Of the immigration problem.
The speaker then went on TO tell Of
the statistical side of the immi-
grafton question, saying that since the
Civil war period, the United States has
received 2l000000 Of immigrants, and
