BIG SUGAR FAMINE
 THREATENS COUNTRY.
Stocks in the Refineries Small and the
 Crops Short.

Washington, Sept 1.-The, sugar. experts of the department of agricul- ture. after, carefully canvassing the sit uation have reached the conclusion that the United States is facing the most serious sugar famine in years.
 The price of sugar has been going up steadily for months, and has ad vanced | 1-4 cents pound in the last few weeks. It is now said that the fall crop will not bring about drop in the price, and may be responsible for a continuation of the advance.
 The refineries have practically nc stock on hand; there has been almost no trading in anything but seconds on the New York market for weeks: the refiners find it impossible to obtain any more of the big European surplus they counted on, and the fall crop in this country threatens to show a seri- ous dimunition from the yield of pre- vious years.
 The government experts take their dark view of the outlook after going over the field reports from the sugar growing districts of the United States, reports on the present condition of the market and estimates on the amount of sugar now held in stock by the various ref1nerieS,

Naval Academy Student Makes Eyes
 at the Wrong Girl

Annapolis, Md, Sept. 11.-Capt. John H. Gibbons, ~uperintendent of the naval academy, does not approve of flirting. He has so told the middies and through the head of the depart ment of discipline has warned the young gallants that roguish glances and tentative ogldng must stop-at least inside the naval academy limits.
 Back of the anti-firting order re- gently issued inS verbal way to the whole membership of the fourth class is d sad. sad mistake, wherein a young middy found to his sorrow that the pretty miss he was ogling had too much self-respect to tolerate his inn pertinance.
 As she walked down Lovers Lane" the young woman was the recipient of advances from a youth whom she thought too bold. After effectually squelching the youth the miss entered the home of her father, who is an of ficer attached to the academy, and laid her case before him.
 Fortunately for the offending middy, the girl has been unable to identify him, so the reprdmand was delivered to the whole class after mess and the young fellows were warned to here after refrain from all bold glances or 'goo-goo eyes" under pain of dire de- partmental displeasure.

Prohibition Voted Out of States Constitution
 by Very Narrow Margin
EIGHTEEN TOWNS ARE STILL MISSING
Unofficial and Incomplete Returns Place Majority at Less Than 900 in Total Vote of 120,0OO-Mane Will Continue be Dry State Until Statute of 1857 is Repealed-Only One City Declared For Prohibition.

Portland, Me, Sept 11.-With unofh- ,cial returns at hand from 503A of the 521 cities, towns and plantations in the state late tonight, the repeal of the constitutional prohibitory amend nlent was indicated by a majority of SS6 votes. The IS towns yet to be heard from have a normal vote of less than four hundred.
 Exact Result in Doubt. E
 Eighteen small towns had not been reportd, and the vote of these, togeth- ton of returns by telephone, still left the exact result in some doubt. One hundred and twenty thousand voters visited the polls and cast their bal lots on the question:
 Cities Went "Wet.'' /
 AS had been predicted, the cities were the chief strongholds of the re- peal faction, but the majority of 12,- 900 in the total city svote was barely sufficient, according to the latest available returns, to offset the vote of the rural communities.
 No Excitement at Polls. \, Little excitement marked the voting. the pcl in some of the cit. time that they were open, it was an orderly crowd.
 Prohibitory State Since 1857.
 Since 1857 Maine has had a statute prohibiting the sale of intoxicating liquors, and since 1884 prohibition has been part of the state constitution. In that year, 1884, the question of placing prohibition in the constitution was put before the people, and prohi- bition won by a majority Of 45,9SS, carrying every county in the state.

MOUNT ETNA's ERUPTION
 GROWS MORE INTENSE,
Shocks Growing in Violence and Panic
 Prevails Among People.

Catania, Sicily, Sept. 1.-The erup- tion of Mount Etna has become more intense. The showers of ashes and cinders are heavier than they were yesterday, and the rumbling of earth shocks at short intervals is heard for miles around. The shocks are growing in violence and panic prevails. The rear of the people is augmented by the great heat and the suffocating atmo- sphere. All the country roundabout is covered with ashes and seems under an immense funeral pail.
 It is reported that three new cratars have opened, but so far it has been impossible to ascertain whether they are emitting lava because of their high situation and the thick smoke that lies over them, The people of the villages on the slopes of Mount Etna have abandoned their homes Some of the houses have been damaged by the earthquakes and hundreds of men. women and children who are without shelter go about from place to place carrying pictures of the saints, crying and imploring mercy.
 At Giarre, Is miles from Catania, the patients were carried out of the hospital by nurses who feared that the building would collapse.
 A new Assure has opened above Linguaglossa which lies at the foot Of Mount Etna, and brilliant flashes ii- luminata the thick column of smoke. Lava is now descending and threat ems the villages, It has reached to the edge of blle woods. It is estimated that in all 14 new Assures have opened and they are emitting smoke, ashes and lava. Even the streets of Catania are covered with ashes.

Brown, Coroner Davis began an inyestigat tion and held an inquest, open to the pub lic which was continued until We'd nesday of this week to allow of the ap- pearance of the conductor of the train, who was severely injured Since the opening day of the inquest the coron- CT has been in receipt of an anony- nous letter from a passenger who asked him how about a gang that was working on the track Sunday after noon. The matter will probably be taken up Wednesday.
 Wrench and Claw Bar in Bushes.
 A few days after the wreck rail- road detectives found a wrench and claw bar hidden in the bushes near the scene of the accident and tonight they claim that they are the ones takne from the tool house in Portland. It is also stated there is other evidence against the four men which will not be disclosed until the hearing Wednes- day.
 Arrests Made Hastily.
 The prisoners will be taken to the county jail at Haddam tomorrow morning and kept there until Wednes- day. The arrests, it has been learned, were made before the detectives had planned to have them made, due to the fact that Diorrio was planning to go to Italy tomorrow.
 Positive of Their Men.
 When asked if they were reasonably sure that they had secured the right men the detectives stated that they were positive and that they had had the four men under surveillance since the day after the wreck They also stated that the wrench and clawbar were found by girl the day follow ing the wreck, hid in the rocks near the scene, and that the girl, Amelia and they did not know of the fact un- til Thursday following the accident. Have Admission from One of Them.
 When asked if any of the men had made a confession the officers refused to state, but one of them did say that one of the accused had stated that one of the wrenches was too small and that it had been thrown away. This officer also stated that he had had a man stationed behind door in the local railroad station when two of the men were seated nearby and that this man had written down the conversa- ton of the two men. but what it was he would not divulge.
 The Theft of the Tools.
 The stealing of the tools was elab- orated upon by the officers stating that the tools were stolen Saturday night and were secreted on the Portland shore. One of the men had gone to Portland and hired the boat and rowed it back here where the other three were picked up. On Sunday night Pechini is alleged to have gone to Portland, hired the boat, rowed to the place where the tools were secreted, secured them. and then rowed. over to the Middletown shore a mile below the city, where his three companions, who had gone to the spot, one at time, were waiting for him. From there they went down to the. scene of the ac- cident and removed the spikes and un- bolted the fishplate.
