One hundred and eighty towns have

cient to give the. exact standing of

Enough have been reported to insure
a republican majority in both houses ,
probably six in the senate and twenty-
nine iu the house , unless the towns to
bo heard from make decided gains or
either vide cannot be decided winner
at the official count. The returns re
ceived are necessarily subject to some
correction. The legislative committee
and state officials' tabulations may
differ sufficiently to change the result ,
so close arc the returns. It Is therefore - i

even at this hour. .
LATEST FROM MAINE.
Special Dispatch to The Bee
POKTLAMD , Me. ) September 16 , 3 a.
m. The most reliable information in
dicates very small republican gaini in
four of the thirty-two towns In Knox
and Oxford counties , but little is Tot
known from Aroostook oJUlity , upon
which hangs the result , and the gains
predicted by the fusionists , A few
towns from Aroostook show no sJjn |
from last year's count. There still re
mains ninety towns , mostly from
Aroostook , to hear from , and should
they follow in line with those report
ed , it will leave a fusion majority of
309. Thcso are tbe facts as near as
can bo learned from the most reliable
sources , and no further returns are
looked for until late to-day. Outside
of this anything advanced as news ii
pure speculation. Heed , republican
congressman , Firat district , has a ma
jority of 147 ; Fryo , republican ,
Second , has 1,500 majority ; Lindsy ,
republican , Third , 500 to 700 major
ity ; Lidd , greenback , Fourth , 1,500
majority ; and .Jlurcb , greenback , tf'ifth ,
800 majority. The houno is republi
can by nineteen majority and the
senate stands twenty republicans to
eleven fusionists and perhaps one bet
ter , for the chances are that S. S.
Brown , of Garcelon's council , who
ran for senator in Somerset , is defeat
ed. The republicans claim that if vic
tory there bo for the antis , it is a
greenback victory , and if the democrats >
crats can stand it they ought to. Be
fore joining the greeubackorsPlaisted ,
the fusion candidate for governor , was
the most radical of republicans ; no
one man was so bitter against demo
crats in the state of Maine as he.

Gen. Plaisted , in an interview last
evening , said : "I am confident of
having at least 2,000 majority over all.
Aroostook count > alone will give me
from 1,000 to 1,5CO majority. I re
gard the result a glorious triumph for
the plain people. While I was always
confident of victory by a small major
ity , at least , I did not expect such &
magnificent victory as wo have ob
tained. We have received congratu
lations from all parts of the country.
I consider the contest the hardest over
fought in this state. "
In regard to the future of the two
parties , Gen. Plaisted declined to be
interviewed , but said he had always
considered that union and victory In
September meant union and victory in
November.

SAN FRANCISCO , September 16,1 a.
m. The nomination of Kallocli by
the Ward presidents of the working-

lamation will not be issued by Kallach
unless rtrdered by the supreme court ,
and ii ft itnderatood that the court
will hold that the present officials
continue in office till next year. Dem
ocratic manipulators have cQuctoJ a

offices and put a joint ticket in the

whether there i a proclamation or

The republicans will not call a con

if obliged to put a ticket in the field [ '
to prevent the election going by de

WORCESTER , September 1C , 1 a. m.
The republican state convention as
sembled at Mechanics' hall &tvll
o'clock yesterday. About one thou
sand delegates were present. The
convention was called to order by
Hon. E. F. Stone , who was chosen
temporary chairman. Ho alluded to
the unwelcome nowa from Maine ,
'but , " said he , "it did not discourage
but only served to move anew the
party for a vigorous fight. "
Hon. Paul A. Chedbourne , president -
dent of Williams college , was chosen
permanent chairman the conven
tion aud proceeded to deliver hia ad
dress. President Chadbournc said
the mission of the republican party
was to secure for the people -of the
whole country the blessings which
Massachusetts enjoys. The voice of
his state must strive with all earnestness -
ness to sustain the national suprema
cy of the republican parly the party
whose glorious past , present and fu
ture was represented by Abraham
Lincoln , II. B. Hayes and Jas. A.
Garfield. [ Loud applause. ] The history -
'
tory and'present composition of the
two parties were next contrasted. The
democratic party ehould be judged by
the acts of the democratic congress.
The republican party is the first polit
ical which has tr
party successfully car
ried out the principles of the declara
tion of independence the personal
freedom and absolute equality of all
man before the law. It has settled
forever that this government is a Na
tion , never to be dissolved. It de
sires to dissipate forever all traces of
Boetlonal feeling. It has sustained
tbe credit of the country , reduced the
interest bearing debt nearly § 500,000-

basis and brought the
country to i a
time of and

To give the government to the demo

who , fifteen yean ago , were fighting

CHICAGO , September 1C 1 a. m.
By a recent court decision the Wes
tern Indiana railroad is granted the
right of way into this city to Van Bur-
en strcot. Tuesday night the Illinois
Central company placed a string of lo
comotives on their track at Sixteenth
and Clark streets whcra it was cxpect-
ed the Western Indiana would under-
take to eroes with their track laying
doting the night. Trouble was antici
pated aud a gu : > ; of police was on
hand. The track layers managed to
unhitch and icmovo the locomotivej.
One of thu engineers , Peter Whalen ,
beins enraged , t * > rew the throttle open
and attempted to run down the eaug
of workmen , which he would have
dune had not the police aticcoedod in
stopping the engine and saving their
lives. Whalon was arrested and fined
§ 100.
A JIIPNIOUT ROW.
Open hostilities between the Wes
tern Indiana railway and the city au -
thorities were begun Init evening. 1I 1i
The railway people , apprehending in
terference on the part of the city in
laying its tracks aoroas the streets
from Twelfth to Van Buren , it ap >
plied to thu court for an injunction re
straining such interference by the
people , but a counter application for )
writ to restrain the railway lo
from proceeding with track laying is
mads. The railway obtained a United
Staiea wtit but the city did not.
Thu railway men then mEguanimously
invited the city authorities to attend
the track laying and see that it was
done right. Superintendent of-stroet t ?
Fogarty was on hand last night , but
Biid ho did not know whether the
work was being properly done or not.
He asked that it ba stopped till a
more seasonable time , when the city
engineer could bo present. The company
T
pany declined to wiit and went ahead
with the work. Thereupon Fogarty |
called upon the police and citizens in
the vicinity to prevent further work.
A scoiio of riot immediately followed.
It is not said J.a
whether anyone was injured -
jured , but the citizens completely
overpowered the workmen , piled up
the railroad ties and burned them ,
placed raila iu the fire and bent or
broke tliam , All the track that had
been hid was torn up and the materi :
al , as far as possible , destroyed.

1'he ' police who were on duty Tues
day night at Brkonhead , near the
Woodside ferry , w Iiich connects Birkenhead -
kenhoad with Liverpool , had their at
tention attracted to the auspicious
movements of three men , who wore
carrying sacks towards the magnificent
docka aUrrUundinjf tlie Wootlside ba-
nin. The men Ecumecl anxious to ca
cape observation , and proceeded fur
tively from point to point , keeping as
milch aa pcbsibld within tile shadows
of the building or vessels. Apprc *
hendingsome crooked proceeding , tbe
police made a descent iipon and arrest
ed the men. They at first attempted
I to escape , but seeing themselves aur
rounded , surrendered to the officers ,
An examination of ono of the men. .
| who appeared to be the spokesman for
the party , gave the name of Fernan
dez , and said he was a Spaniard and
ofierrd the police a sovereign to be released -
leased 1 , saying that the c/icks contained
1t revolvers to be shipped to Spam , and
that he and his companions wore en
tirely innocent of any intention to
commit any crime whatever. Not sat
isfied with tbe explanation , the police
dotainud thu men ami opened the Backs ,
which were found to contain six hun-
flred weight of gunpowder packed in
canisters. The most searching ques-
' tufna failed to elicit from the men any
further account of themselves , and
they wove held for judicial cxaniina-
ation. It is believed by sotnu that tbe
mon were the same who undertook to
blow up the Ediuburg & London ex
press at Buiby on Monday , and that
when detected and arrested , they were
about carrying out some infernal
scheme ! , either to blow up a pirt of
the docks at Liverpool or Birkenhcad ,
| or to arrange an explosive apparatus
on i board some outgoing ship , for a
reason i which hag not yet tr.itiapired.
The affair has created much excite
ment , and the authorities will spare
no efforts to ferret out the facts. The
prisoners were arraigned in the police
court and Fernandez continued to
stick to his story that the powder was
for sale on the Spanish coast. The
others said nothing , Furnandtz stating
that they were iu his employ and
know nothing of the nature of what
they carried. Fernandez waa fined
10 and the others discharged. Fur

purpose by the resistance given at the
jail by Ramsay , who , two months ago ,
shot Miss Holt because ahedccline-1 to
marry him. AVhen the mob entered
the jail he waa behind the door nnd
it waa almost impossible to obtain ac-
cesi to him. Bern ? armed with the
leg of a choir he struck at every per
son who tried to reach him. Finding
that they could not easily break into
the cell and thereby get the prisoner
a member of the mob threw pieces of
burning paper into the cell and aided
by the light obtained therefrom fired
at the trembling and desperate mmi.
Two bullets struck him in the leg
severing an artery and rendering him
so weak that he soon fell to the floor
and was dragged through to the outside -
side , where ono or two more shots
finished him.
Ramsey fought the mob for an hour
and a half , but it appears that the
approaching daylight warned them
that they OJuld not reach Sadlersvillo
in time , so they determined to lynch
the supposed murderers without fur
ther delay , which WAS done. Con
trary to the usual custom no shots
were fired while the victims were be

their work , the crowd went quietly
