MAINE REPUBLICANS ARE GIVEN A JOLT Party Is Victorious But Plurality Shows Big Cut. . Portland, Me. Sept - 11.—In the itate election In Maine yeaterday the Republicans met with severe reveries, but succeeded In electing the major part of their ticket by generally re duced majorities. The Sturls law and the consequent rigid application of the prohibition atatutea are. blamed by the Republican* for their dlaaater. The victory of the Republican party Is shown In these figures: Governor Cobb’s vote, S(,388: Davie (Democrat), *#,701; Cobb'a plurality, 7,098. In the paat four year* the Republi cans have lost 14,480 votes. May Aak a Recount, in the Second congressional district, where the fight wga on between Con gressman Littlefield (Republican) and Daniel J. McOllllcuddy (Democrat), the vote Is: Llttlefleld, 17,280; McOllllcud dy. 16,14*. In four years the Republl- rans have .lost In this district 4,458 votes. Organized labor claims a big moral victory In the reduction of Llttlefleld'* plurality. It ha* fought hard, under the leadership of President Samuel Hampers.

CZAR'S PRISONERS REVOLT WIEN GIRL IN SHOTTO DEATH Two Young Jewish Women Sentenced To Be Executed. A suit which will make some peaceful Justices alt up and take notice, even If It does not return to the petitioner his >-months-old calf, the cause of the trouble, was Med la the superior court Monday by Arthur Payton against Vir gil Jones, Justice of the peace for the four hundred ant) sixty-ninth district. Payton asks 21,000 damages for the al leged Issuance of warrants at the In stance of R. K. Echols, who claimed the calf, for the sole pupose of making costs for the Justice. Payton charges that In addition to being guilty of official misconduct In Issuing possessory warrant* for the calf, without first making proper In vestigation, Justice Jones discriminated against him. He alleges that when he ■wore before the Justice that the calf wns his property n warrant for per jury, sworn out by Echols, was served on him, but that when he wished to have a warrant served on Echols for the same offense Justice Jones, re fused to have It served. The petitioner claims that C. H. Mc Crary, an official of Justice Jones' court, coerced him Into agn settle the case by turning over the calf to Echols. This, he says, he did. When hls counsel learned how he had been treated Payton alleges that the attorney Instituted trover and ball pro ceedings against McCrary on August 14. In retaliation Payton says that Me Crary, Instigated by Jones, swore out a warrant before Justice Cook charg ing him with perjury. The petitioner says that after he had been arrested and sent to Jail he refused to be tried before Justice Cook, and, on being taken before Justice Orr, wae dis charged. Payton claims that, while the dock ets of Jones’ court show that the pros ecutors paid the costs, hls calf has been taken from him and never re turned, and that the whole proceedings were simply for the purpose of extort- froi Ing fees from him, .(40 for Fleshing Pistol, Special to The Georgian. Balnbrldge,- Oa., Sept. 11.—The most Interesting case to come un In city court here Saturday was that of Jim Yeatee, charged with pointing « platol at W. B. Ivey. The Jury returned a verdict of guilty, with a recommenda tion, and the Judge fined Yeatea 21 and coate, which amounted to 240. to the legislature. The Industrial cen ters administered a stinging rebuke to Llttlefleld. "We fought against terrible odds. Corporate Interests flooded the district with money. Speaker Cannon, Secre tary Taft and Senator Lodge were rushed to Littlefield's assistance and a personal appeal from President Roose velt seeking hls re-election was sent into the district. Yet, In spite of such heroic methods, Littlefield’s majority was reduced by 4,000 or more votes.” Very New Jewelry The things that Mam’sclle Vogue has approvingly, ut forth for the pleasure of her votaries are here in ntvp.

Henry Dol- beau, racing chauffeur, cut nnd bruised on head; J. Lawrence, a clubman, bad ly cut and bruised. Mrs. Quinn was killed and Mrs. Kane Injured by a big touring automobile, which was speeding through Sheridan boulevard for Rockaway. They had no chance to escape when the chauf feur sounded the horn, for the car was then upon them. They were hurled Into the gutter. Spectators say that the chauffeur put on more speed and the auto dis appeared In the direction ot Jamaica without the occupanta looking back. The car's speed wae so great that no body could see the number. Surveyor Ford was crushed to death between two automobiles, one hls own, on the Pelham avenue bridge over the Bronx liver, near Bronx park. The owner of the second machine said he was Otto F. Flelshmann, sec retary and treasurer of. Flelshmann Baking Company, Of .878 Broadway. The injured man was wrapped up In a blanket, put Into the Flelshmann ma chine and hurried to a hospital. He, died half an hour later. RIGHT MAN FOR THE PLACE When he stepped ashore after hls long and brilliant tour abroad with hls bride. Congressman Nicholas Long- worth little dreamed that a new and Important honor was to be bestowed upon him. After the princely recep tions that he and 51rs. Longworth had received In foreign capitals hie mind was turned upon the coming campaign In hls native stale, Ohio, and upon hls K rt as committeeman In the big flglit Ing made by the International Poli cy-holders' Committee for clean man agement In the New York and Mutual Life Insurance Companies. He had no Idea, however, that the committee, which l» made up ot governora ot states, supreme Judges, high ecclesi astics, business men and powerful rep resentatives of great labor bodies, was to make him the secretary of Its cam paign. The responsibility entailed In this office Is nlone great enough for many men of no common nblltty, but the committee, after careful considera tion of all possible candidates, selected Nicholas Longworth as Just the men for the place. Hls previous record In state and national politics and In the public affair* of hls city, coupled with hls strong popularity, were the points that won for him this hls latest honor i honor of no little Importance whert It Is considered that the Interests of 1,450,008 policy-holders throughout the’ world are at stake. The routine de tails of the secretary's office will be at tended to by a careful assistant, but all weighty matters will be settled by Con gressman Longworth himself. That he will be one of the busiest men In the HON. NICH. LONGWORTH. country this fall goes without saying. He hae added new enthusiasm and optimism to the movemenL which ha* already been remarkably successful, de spite the bitterest opposition from the corruptionist forces in ths camps of COUNTY COPS TO KICK AT HOURS SUGGESTED The county police force will know Ite fate Wednesday afternoon. A meeting of the county commissioners he* been called by Chairman Jtubert l>. Cul berson for 1 o’clock In the afternoon of that day to decide upon (he loca tions of the three camps, at which the men will make their headquarters, and to formulate rules for the government of the force. Each of the twelve old men and the twenty-four new regular men has been notified to be at the meeting for the purpose of receiving Instructions re garding the rules which ere to govern them, their hours of service and any thing else which the members of the board may have to tell them. Chairman R. V. Carter, of the road* and bridge* committee of the commis sion, said Tuesday morning that noth ing definite had been done toward lo cating the camps or providing rules for the government of the force. Although there may be no kicking. It’s a sure thing that If the men have to spend practically all of their time at the three stations a lot of dissatis faction will result. All of the men. express an opinion have said that they are willing to be on duty and subject to call at any and all times, but most ot them will balk when It comes to spending twenty-four hours a day In the saddle and In camp away from their families. Every member of the present force has a telephone and' can be located within a few minutes by the chief,, and every one of the new men who has expressed himself has made known hls willingness to pay for a telephone If he does not have to spend hls time In barrarks. A Georgian reporter has talked to many citizens from different parts of the county, and with but few excep tions they have said that they would R refer to see the men statlohed at their omee when off duty than for them to be mobilised In three camps. It Is thought that much more efficient ser vice .can be obtained In that, way, as the men are well scattered over the county. It Is snld that when the men gather In the office of the commission Wed nesday afternoon that will be th< first lime they have all been seen together by the commissioners since the reor- INJURED ENGINEER CLIMBSINTHECAB AND CONTINUES RUN Central Passenger Runs In- to Open Switch—Many Are Injured.
