The Third Maine Regiment.
A New Drive is Planned for More Recruits
Under the Direction of Officers from
Portland.

Major Bial F. Bradbury of Norway, who
has been spending the past week in the
city in the interest of the Belfast Com
pany of the Third Maine Regiment, went
to Millinocket Friday where he will ex-
anime candidates for another company
to be formed there There were sixty
two signers of the application in this
city and of that number 81 presented
themselves for examination and were
examined. One refused to be examined
and of the remaining ten who did not
appear, one enlisted in the army on Mon
day of last week, one was out of the
Maine Central in Waterville the day of
examinations. There were but seven in
the number who had signed who failed to
account for themselves and they will be
called in the next examination.
Major Bradbury stated that the ex-
aminations and the number of men who
passed were better than fifty per cent
and it was about the standard on the
examination of volunteers. He stated
that in all the examinations that he had
made, that out of the total number of
men who had signed up, that the list
here who were examined was the largest.
In the number of 81 men who were ex-
amined, 25 passed all tests for examination
and will become members of the Com
pany. Three may pass AS soon as some
minor teeth defects are remedied and 90
were not passed by reason of physical
unfitness. Many who failed to pass felt
very sorry and were among those most
anxious to become memb bers of the new
company.
Within short time some officers will
be sent to this city from Portland and
other places to begin recruiting and it is
expected that there will be list for ex-
animation with little loss of time for the
next drive. There will be some rallies
and interesting speakers and there is little
doubt about the early organization of this
company. DR.. Carl H. Stevens of this
city will be the local examining physician
in the future and while regular army
man may come here to assist him he has
already received a commission from the
office of the Adjutant General and is now
First Lieutenant. During the stay of
Major Bradbury in this city, Lieut.. Stew
ems assisted in the examinations which
were conducted at the City Building.

The Garfield Fuel Order.

The Garfield Fuel Order was complied
with in Belfast under the direction of the
local fuel commission, James H. Howes,
M. L. Slugg and R. L. Cooper. Several
cases where there was doubt concerned
Mr.. Howes took the matter up with chair
man Hamlin of the State Committee.
The fine of S., 600 and Imprisonment was
conducive to obedience if any had the
idea of disregarding the order. Not a
single whistle was heard from Thursday
night until Wednesday morning as the
plants using steam were shut down. The
Leonard & Barrows shoe factory employ
ing about 400 hands, the Mathews Mill
about 60 were effected the most serious
ly. The Coe- Mortimer Co. with so hands
were idle Friday and Monday; Pierce

the same, Miles S. Jellison with IS, Ell

power exclusively, closed Monday, but all
lost more or less time until they were
sure of their rights granted by the use
of water power. The Mathews Mill is
operated by part electric power but used
enough steam to come under the closing
order
All the stores not carrying provisions
were closed all day Monday and there
was a general shut down during the after
noon.
Considering the confusion generally
noted Belfast did her part very willing
ly and all were anxious to know what
was required OF them without asking the
reason for the order. Many, including
