SHIP-HOLD AFIRE
WAS FOUGHT l2 DAYS

HaXre, France, Sept. 13.-The
French freight and passenger steamer
California arrived from New York
yesterday with fire that had been
fought for twelve days, still burning
briskly in her hold. The crew was
pretty well exhausted and called upon
the city firemen to finish the job The
latter proceeded to flood the craft and
hope to save part of the cargo.
The steamer California had sixteen
passengers, who were glad to get
ashore unharmed.
The steamer, which carries only
second class passengers, and not many
of them, is owned by Compagnie Gen
erale Trans-Atlantique. She sailed
from New York for Havre August 81,
with load of merchandise.

DEMOCRATS SWEEP
STATE OF MANI
OId-Time, Rock-Ribbed State Convert
ed Into Strong Advocate of
Democracy.
(By Associated Press.)

Portland, Me-, Sept 15.-
With many backwoods pre-
cincts yet to be heard from,
it is difficult to estimate just what
will be the exact status of the Repub-
licans in Maine when the returns are
all in. Apparently the Democrats
swept everything in yesterdays cleo
ton, converting an old-timed, rock
ribbed Republican state into a strong
advocate of Democracy.
Returns received today give Col.
Fred w. Plaisted, the democratic can
didate for Governor, 72,711 votes,
against $4,000 for H. M. Fernald, Re-
publican. The amazement and sur
prise of the Republican leaders was
added to today when it was shown
that the state senate would have at
least twenty-one Democrats. There
are only thirty-one members of this
body all told.
During the last session there were
| 90 Republicans and only eight Demo
Gratis. If the lower house is demo-
ocratic, and it now appears that such
/ is the case, United States Senator
Eugene Hale, Republican, will not
! have to resign. The Democrats will
elect the first Democratic senator
Maine has had since 1868. The Dem
ocrats have captured at least two of
! the seats in congress formerly held
by Republicans. Further returns are
awaited with great interest.

line Program.

Tonight at the Court House the
committees recently appointed by the
local chapter United Daughters Of the
Confederacy, the Hattiesburg Camp of

plans for the entertainment of the
veterans and visitors on the occasion
of the state reunion to be held here
next month, and to arrange a program
for the exercises attendant upon the
unveiling of the Confederate monu-
ment.
1t is desired that all members of
these committees attend the meeting,
as it is necessary that preparations
for the event be commenced at once.
All sons of Confederate veterans are
requested to be present tonight and
lend their assistance in the work which
the committees have in charge.
It has been planned to serve bas-
ket dinner to the veterans on the first
day of the reunion, when the unveil-
ing ceremonies will be held, and every
lady in Hattiesburg will be asked to
send a basket of food to the Court
House on that day. This dinner will
not be for the public, but for the vet
Grams exclusively.
1t is the desire of the local veterans
and daughters to make this reunion
the most notable ever held in the
state, and all citizens of the city are
invited to cooperate in making prep
arations for the event.

members of the Mississippi bench, and
has many friends in Jackson, who will
regret to learn that he is unable to
preside over court this week.
On being notified of the illness of
Judge Cashin, Acting Governor Man
ship appointed Mr.. Lamar Easterling
of this city special Judge to sit dur
ing the remainder of the Holmes
county term. Mr. Easterling is one
of the youngest members of the Jack
son bar, and has made a good record.
He will go to Lexington today and
hold his first session of court tomor-
row.
Judge Cashin was granted an ex-
tension of his leave several days ago
by Governor Noel, but he felt so much
better that he decided to return and
resume his duties. After Returning
home, Judge Cashin's health did not
improve, and when he resumed his
duties on the bench his condition be-
came such as to cause his friends
much concern.

MORE Votes POLLED
In FORREST COUNTY
Vote over The Entire District Was
Practically The Same as That PoIIed
in First Primary.-The Lewis Vote
Divided.

Hon. B. pat" Harrison, of Gulf
port, will represent the Sixth Missis-
sippi district in the next congress of
the United States, having won the
nomination in yesterdays primary by
a majority of about 1900 votes, ac-
cording to available figures from the
various counties.
While no official returns had been
received in Hattiesburg up to the
time of going to press, and figures
from many of the counties were in
complete it is generally conceded that
Harrison's majority will not be ma
terially changed by the official count
In Forrest county the vote yester-
day was somewhat heavier than that
polled in the first primary, nearly two
hundred more votes being polled at
the Hattiesburg precincts. The total
vote of the county was 1872, Mr.. Tally
receiving 1881 and Mr.. Harrison 1911
In Hattiesburg the vote stood $50 for
Tally and 102 for Harrison.
Incomplete returns from the dis
trict show the following result:

LABOR TROUBLES
AFFECT ENGLAND

London, Sept. 13.-This week prom
ises to be a grave one in the industrial
world, unless the operatives in the
cotton mills agree to arbitrate tomor-
row, and they thus far have remained
defiant. The Employers Association
will recommend a lockout of the men
from the mills, which would affect
several hundred thousand cotton op-
orators.
The shipyard lockout has taken a
more favorable turn, the boilermakers
having required a conference with the
employers, while the Great Northern
Railway employees, who voted today
on the question of striking on the
ground that the company had not
complied with the decision Of the ar
bitrators, who recently adjusted the
differences between the men and the
company have decided again to sub
init the matter to arbitration.

WALT MASON Still
IN Land OF living
Report Sent Out That He Had Suicd-
ed in PhiladeI phia.-Grew Out of
Death of Cartoonist.

Philadelphia, Sept. 13.-John E.
Scanlon cartoonist of this city, who
was found dead in his studio here
yesterday, evidently died from natural
causes, according to the coroner's
jury.
Little was known of Scanlon here.
For several years he worked alone in
his little studio in the business sec
tion of the city, penning drawings,
verse and stories that from time to
time brought him returns from publi-
cations. On several occasions he had
written his sister postal cards signed
"Walt Mason" the name of a well
known writer of verse. She thought
walt Masons" productions were her
brothers and this fact led the police
to believe for a time that Scanlon
was the we'll known writer.
"Walt Mason" is in Emporia, Kan.

only sixteen feet and weighing only

Tires are Warned to Desist.

Unless certain small, mischievous
boys desist from the practice of drop
ping tacks on the paved streets, in
order, presumably, to puncture tires
of automobiles and bicycles, they are
liable to find themselves in serious
trouble.
This practice has become so COM
mon that it is an easy matter to gath
err up handful of long, large-headed
tacks from the paved streets, and is
a source of great annoyance to
owners of automobiles and bicycles.
The attention of Mayor Donald was
called to the matter and an investi-
cation was begun, with the result that
the guilty lads have been spotted" It
is not the intention of the mayor to
prosecute the boys for the first Of
