President Exum in giving his views to the committee said:
 There seems to be a deep laid idea in the community that I am heartily in favor of increasing the telephone rates. I would ask these gentlemen who have seen fit to take special in terest In these matters to be good enough to read my report on the tele- phone rate question which I made to the board of commissioners some time ago, and which was published in the Birmingham papers.
 "I thought we were performing a duty which we owed to the citizens of Birmingham. and which we owed to the telephone company in taking up the investigation at the time we did, and through our own agency We made the investigation; made 1t with our own authorized auditor.

Governor Wilson Objected to Extra
Charges TO Sea Grit.
Trenton, n. J., Sept. i3.-When Gov
ernor Wilson discovered a few weeks
ago that the Pullman company had
added 10 cents to the rate he had been
paying for travelling on its cars be-
tween Trenton and Sea Girt he was in
dignant. The cost of living in this par
ticular had been raised overnight and
without the company SO much as say
ing by your leave" to the chief execu-
tive of the state.
Instead Of fighting, the governor and
his public utility commission submit
ted a new schedule Of rates, which will
go into effect next Thursday. Under
this schedule only % cents viii be
charged between Trenton and Spring
Lake or intervening points. 80 cents
between Trenton and Elberon and in
tervening points and 80 cents between

SUDoR
HELD AS SLAYER.
of Six Months Dies of
StryChnine Poisoning.

Americas, Ga, Sept. BINARY Chill
ders, a bride Of six months, Is dead as
a result Of s%trychnine being placed In a
bottle Of headache powders which she
kept on the dresser in her room at the
hotel, and r. G. Kennedy is held,
charged with her death. Revenge Is
the motive which is said to have in
spired Kennedy. Mrs. Childers before
her marriage was known as the most
beautiful girl in this section Of the
state, and Chllders and Kennedy were
rivals for her hand. Six months ago
she suddenly married Childers.
Kennedy was deeply angered, and 1t
is alleged that he made threats that he
would be revenged. The theory of the
police Is that Kennedy put the strych-
nine In the bottle of headache powders
while visiting Mr.. and Mrs. Childers.
Detectives say they can prove that
Kennedy bought ~strychnine a few days
before Mrs. Childers died. All the fam
flies involved are prominent and
wealthy.

''DRYS" HAVE

Mistakes Turn Tables in the

pears to be dry" by a majority OF
465. All cities, towns and plantations
have been heard from, nearly all veri-
fed and the apparent victory of the
"wets" by a majority of nearly 1000,
as indicated by the early figures, has
been reversed.
When the revised and official figures
began coming In it was discovered
that many mistakes In tabulation had
been made, and when corrected inva-
riably increased the dry" total and
cut down the wet" lead. In no in
stance was it found that a mistake
corrected benefited the opponents of
prohibition. The "wets" have not
given up the fight, and now rely on
the official canvas Of the vote to win,
ago has given place to the deepest
gloom.
The election has furnished a sue
cession Of surprises. Nothing like it
was eve known in the history of the
state. From the time that the wet"
majority of 621 was announced until
the dry" verdict was reached tonight
results have been continually in doubt.
But all day long the "drys'' made
steady gains, and finally it became
apparent hat unless many more Sc
rious mistakes were made they were
going to win.
A prediction that Maine will never
see q liquor license law is contained
In q statement made by c. S. Stetson
OF Greene, master of the state grange.
He said:
"While l recognize hat the u of
prohibition may have received a de
feat, 1t Is only the beginning of the
fight, I predict that Maine will never
see a license law, for l believe that
any attempt to pass such a measure
would be overwhelmingly defeated"
Ex-Mayor Adam ?. Leighton of
Portland, president Of the No License
league, announced that steps would
be taken for a recount Of the vote IN
less the official returns should mate
rally increase the majority for the
repeal OF the amendment.

OF this city have succeeded In estab-
fishing the identity of the man who

and a number Of cuts and bruises
about the face. 1t was also found on
examination by County Physician Arm
strong that the mans skull was frac-
