REPUBLICANS
CARRY MAINE
Elect Governor and Three OF
Four congressman.

Portland, Me-, Sept. 1O.-William T.
Haines of Waterville, Republican, has
been elected to the chair of governor
over Frederick W. Plaisted of Augusta
by a plurality Of about 1900 votes, or
possibly slightly In excess of that.
This figure Is based on Incomplete
returns The Legislature looks to be
Republican and IL such be the case
Edward O. Burlelgh will represent this
In place Of Obadiah Gardner. D. ].
McGillicuddy is looked upon as the
only Democrat who will be sent to
congress. Indications are that Asher
@. Kinds, Forest Goodwin and Frank
q. Gurnsey wiz be the Republican
representatives of the state In the
lower branch.
A feature hat made possible the
election Of Haines Is the fact that the
Progressives, who are admittedly
strong in this state, did not oppose
him, there being a solid Republican
force against the Democrats. Nor did
the Progressives come into this state.
They agreed with the Republican
state committee to stay out Of the
sta e until after the election and 1t Is
highly probable that their absence
from the state carried considerable
strength to Haines. Another feature
Of the battle was the fact that the
Republicans who detected to Plaisted
two years ago did not stay under his
banner this year.
Dia Republican Gain.
Five hundred and twenty-five out Of
e34 election districts comprising 10 out
Of 20 cities and IA out Of sol towns
gave Haines. bs,1e7; Plaisted, %, TOO.
In 1910 the same districts gave Fernald
81 ,271 and Plaisted 1881. These ng-
ures reveal the Republican 9 per cent
gain and the Democratic loss Of equal
proportions.
Should Haines maintain his lead
until all the votes are counted on the
same basis as the above figures he will
be elected by a plurality Of about
$3.50 as compared with a plurality Of
$500 which was given Plaisted two
years ago. Though returns are still
incomplete, 1t is highly probable that
the legislature will be Republican by
a slight majority. However, neither
ex-Congressman Burleigh nor Senator
Gardner are at all certain Of victory.
OF q total of thlrty-one members Of
the senate returns now indicate eight
Republicans and three Democrats In
that branch. In the house there are
so far elected forty-three Republicans
and t~hirty-six Democrats out of a total
Of 151. The last legislature was over
whelmingly Democratic.
There is no longer any question but
what Kinds, Guernsey and McGilli-
cuddy have been reelected to con
gress, McGilicuddy with reduced
plurality. Forrest Goodwin is the
other Republican congressman elected.
Five hundred and sixty-four districts
out of 634 comprising 10 out of 20
cities and 4e1 out Of sol towns gave
Haines, 6s. 639 and Plaisted, 60, 7s1.
Two years ago Fernald received g.
SOC and Plaisted, 71,017.

 Suddenly one of the horses Whinnied then another. and third shed violent ly, uttering that terrible cry of which the horse is capable only when in eX- treme fear. I could see by the light of the moon the shadow of an animal about the size of dog Hitting over the frozen surface of marsh pool which lay some twenty paces from us on one side of the road No animal travel more silently than a wolf when in search of prey. and none can at tack so suddenly and unexpectedly. I was slowly raising my gun when a second wolf rose immediately in front of the horses with crest erect and green phOsphOrescent eyes. At the same time points of light appeared all over the mere and the bowling of the beasts rang out.
 A shot was fired: revolver in hand Lescek. one of the Poles, stood on the driving seat of the troika Then from the mail sleigh I discharged both bar rels of my gun, and d savage howl an nOunced that they had taken effect; two of the most daring of our assail- ants lay rolling in the snow. The three Poles kept firing furiously, aI- though the attack of the wolves was directed more against our sleigh, prob ably because it was drawn by double the nmber of horses. Our driver had no other weapon than his loaded whip but with it he dealt tremendous blows
 The horses struggled madly and tried with all their strength to break the harness. At each sot from my gun the wolves scattered. only to collect again immediately and renew their at tack on the horses. Suddenly there arose wild yell behind US

FLIGHT OF CAMPA
 ID NATIVE LAND
It Was Definitely Learned Yesterday
 That He Had Gone.

1t became definitely known that General Campa is not within the jur- isdiction of the United States court Previous to his discharge on q writ of habeas corpus he had informed his attorneys. Struckmeyer and Fisher, that he would remain in the city or vicinity for some time so that any other warrants the government might hold against him might be served. His attorneys so informed the court.
 But Campa was not seen except by his friends after that night and va rious rumOrs regarding his move ments were set afloat It was said that he had passed through q saloon to an awaiting carriage and had gone into hiding and the next day his friends told the officers that he was merely in seclusion and would present himself after a short rest. When @ couple of days later he could not be located, it was reported that he had gone south through Telegraph Pass, headed for the Altar district An other report was that dressed as q woman he had been driven to Mesa. when he went to Roosevelt and Globe on his way to Chihuahua. This latter rumor is believed to be true
 His friends admitted yesterday that he had gone. He is now probably with Salazar in the eastern part of Chihuahua. A report came from Tue son yesterday of trouble in the Altar district but the general belief is that Campa is in the east
 But one thing is certain and that is if the Mexican authorities get hold or him there will be no habeas corpus proceedings.

The thre Poles were rolling in the snow by the side of their overturned sleigh: Lescek's badly driven horses had torn themselves loose from the troika in their terror. and were career ing wildly over the snow covered step pc. pursued by some of the wolves They were soon pulled down. and in the stiffness of the night their death screams were terrible The Poles wal lowed about in the snow, shouting. weeping and lamenting by turns
 Their situation was indeed suffici- ently serious for only Lcscek had had enough presence of mind to hide him. self behind the sleigh, and the mail driver and l, surrounded hy wolves, could give them no help. l looked up on them as doomed. and felt sure that we should quickly share their fate.
 Suddenly our pursuers disappeared, and although bleeding badly, the horses became calmer; the gleaming eyes of the wolves were seen only here and there out on the steppe A shot rang out. then d volley, succeeded by wells Of pain. A dozen dead wolves lay on the ground and two huge beasts actually expired beneath the hoofs of the horses as our rescuers came up in their tinkling seighs.
 It was a landed proprietor with his servants, whose solitary farm lay only q couple of versts away. None of us was dangerously wounded. The wolves had treated the Poles worse for their clothes were nearly torn from their bodies; they were bitten, too. but not seriously. The following morning our host, Herr Stanski, came across the skeletons of the three troika horses scarcely half d Verst from the sccene of our struggle. The poor creatures were still bound together with the harness.

GOODWIN DIES
 ON MARCH A
Globe Designated by Judge Sloan as the Place of Execution of the Mul- derer of Kibbe and Hill pot

J. R. Goodwin, one of the mur- dercrs of Kibbe and Philpot will be hanged at Globe on March IA In re sentencing him yesterday Judge Sloan was liberal with time. The lease of life given the murderer was within two days of the limit allowed by the statutes
 The embarrassment under which the court was expected to labor in finding place for the execution of Goodwin was relieved by letter from the board of supervisors of Gila county saying that the designation of Globe as the place for the hang ing would receive the hearty approval of the board. There had Eeen some expressed opposition to the execution there but it was not official Though the crime of Goodwin was committed on a government reservation. that part of the reservation lies within the limits of Gila county and it was esteemed appropriate that the mur- dcrcr should die there.
 Goodwin has grown thin during his long confinement but his marvellous nerve has been unaffected, He heard the time and place of his death fixed, not stolidly but with a perfect con trOl of his emotions.
 The only other matter in United States court was the beginning of the trial of J. B. Alexander and Jake l.. Roberts indicted for defrauding the government while the former was Indian agent at Sacaton and the latter was an attache Of the agency. The former is represented by Captain J. L. E. Alexander and Judge Baker and the latter by Messrs Struck meyer and Fisher. Both sides had offered a motion for severance and after arguments yesterday morning it was granted.
 The case of Alexander was ordered to trial first and special venire of ten iurymen was ordered
