Carriages then drew up, and, when the President made his appearance, he wai greeted with heany cheers. Ho was accompanied in the first carriage by Lieuten ant-governor Brackett and Adjutant Dalton. In the second carriage were Colonel Mansfield, Surgeon-general Holt and Lieut. Hall, In the third were Colonel WeUington.Colonol Sampson andCoL Rock well. Then tho outriders moved in front.

The streets on the route were thronged with people, who cheered the chief executive as he passed, while ho pleasantly bowed right and left.-. The march consumed about thirty minutes. A crowd of several thousand persons were in waiting at the station, and received the President with noisy demonstrations of welcomo, which continued as to was escorted through tho station to tho train. The Presidentlingered a moment on the car platform, but politely ignored tho calls for a speech. As tho traiu moved out of the depot, amid tho boom of cannon and cheers of the crowd, the President appeared on tho platform and bowed his farewells until the train disappeared. The special train pulled out of the Boston & Maine depot at 9 o'clock, en route to Bar ilarbor. The engine, which is the now forty-five-ton locomotive "Tippecanoe," was decorated with tioral designs. A large crowd witnessed the departuro, which was made to the accompaniment of a salute by llattery A and the continued cheers of the crowd. Lieutenant-governor Brackett and staff leave the train at Haverhill. General Manager Furbcr, of tho Boston & Maine railroad, accompanies the party, and personally supervises tho arrangements of tho trip. ON THE WAV. The Progress of the Train from Boston to Augusta Was a Continuous Ovation. Augusta, Me., Aug. 8. At the Knownothing crossing, just outsido the city of. lioston, crowds of people lined the tracks cheering the President, who, standing hat in hand on the platform of the car, bowed acknowledgments. The crossing passed, the President entered his car and, substituting a soft traveling hat for his silk one. lounged in his chair, took a newspaper and mado himself comfortable, but spared time to meet many members of his traveling party and to say pleasant words t6 all. The first great demonstration after tho departure from Boston was made at South Lawrence, where the train 6topped. There an enormous crowd around the depot cheered as the train stopped; guns thundered a salute; flags waved and a band played lively airs. The people covered the platform, and were perched upon all possible places which promised a view. Tho President went to the rear of his car as it entered the depot and shook the hands of the hundreds of people in waiting behind the train. Governor Goodell, of New Hampshire, and staff, joined the party at this point. When tho police had made a clear space of a foot or two, Mayor Mack occupied it and formally welcomed the President to Lawrence extending cordial greetings and introducing him to tho people. The President bowed his response. Again tho crowd cheered, and with cries of "Long live tho President," cheers for him and his Cabinet, music by tho band and hurrahs by the people, the train moved oft. Among the gentlemen who boarded tho train at this point, in addition to Governor Goodell and staff, were Senator Blair, Congressmen Nute and Moore, Secretary of State Thompson and (Jen. John Eaton, formerly Commissioner of Education, and editor Cogswell, of the Concord Monitor. They were all presented to tho President Tho next stop was at Haverhill, where a big arch of welcomo was erected and a large crowd packed the depot and adjacent streets. As the train rolled into the depot the baud plaj'ed, cannons boomed and tho people hurrahed and made a noisy time generally. As the train stopped, tho crowd closed in behind it and Mr. Allen Ordway, clutching tho side of the car and standing on a step, handed to tho President, who had gone to the rear of the train, a handsome basket of flowers in behalf of the Brother Jonathan Club of itepubtican voters, and made a short speech of presentation. Tho President bowed and the crowed cheered. "Please convey to your associates my sincere thanks for their courtesy. It is a very pleasant gift." said tho President. Great cheering followed. As the train moved off the President stood on the platform with his hat off, and remained there until the people were out of sight. Governor Brackett, of Massachusetts, and staff' left tho train at this point, and. when tho State lino was crossed, Gov, Goodell, of Now Hampshire, and stall' became the official escort. President Harrison walked to the platform of his car as Exeter was sighted. A crowd was gathered in th depot, and there was much cheering. Tho President, standing in full view of the crowd with head bared, shook hands with men, women and children, who clambored np tho steps. It was a great crowd, and there was much pushing and hustling in the effort to take the President's hand. The President went into the car again for the ten minutes' wait, but emerged again before the train started, and tho crowd broke into cheering again, keeping it up until the train passed out of sight. Governor Goodell and stall" said good-bye as the State line was neared, and left the cars at Exeter. At South Berwick, on tho Maino side of the river, a stop was made to take on Adjutant-general Sprague, General Harper and Colonels Philbrook. Pullen and Boothhy, of tho Governor's staff, and there was more cheering and the same eager desire to grasp the hand of the President. Governor liurieigh intended to meet the train at thin point, but sickness prevented him, and his
Tegrets were presented in due form bv Gen. Spraguo, who welcomed the President, as follows: 4,It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to Maine. May everything conduce to vour pleasure while you remain with us." The President bowed his acknowledgments. . At North Berwick Congressman Reed joined the President in greeting the people, taking the place at his side which President Lord had occupied. Mr. Reed's constituents greeted him, and he presented some of them to the President by name, the latter shaking many of them by the hand. At Old Orchard the summer residents and permanent population turned out en massee. They crowded the platform and tracks and gave the President a hearty reception. President Harrison and Mr. Rerd shook the hands of many as they stood in front of Governor Burleigh's staff. A brief speech of introduction was made by Mr. Reed and the train moved on amid renewed cheering. Most of the time between North Berw ick
and Portland the President devoted to lounging in an arm-chair and chatting with air. weed. The train reached Portland at noon, abont fifteen minntea late. There the Boston &. Maine othcials said good-bye, and the Maine Central officials took charge. At the depot in Portland the President was greeted by a great crowd. A little child was lifted above the crowd to pass the President a bouquet, which he received with a bownd smile. lion. T. B. Reed intro duced the President and tho latter bowed amid great cheerintr. The train stopped only hve minutes and then, with a change of engines, went on. xsext came Brunswick and with it another crowd, more cheering, and a salute of twenty-one guns. The town has only five or six thousand inhabitants, but the crowd was a big one, and the reception enthusiastic. 'Tom" Iteed neain introduced the President, who. in response to the ovation, simpiy said: "ihank yon, gentlemen," howing. as usual, and then a little bouquet of flowers was handed him.- When the train moved off' again, three cheers for Tom" Reed were given. Mr. Reed left the train at Augusta, which was at tho end of his district. The eentlcmen who ioined the train here wero Mayor Lane, Postmaster juauiey, Hon. John L. Stevens, minister to tho Sandwich Islands, and national committeman J. Manchester Haynes. The train made a brief ston at Gardiner. It waa then 1:40 p. m. The only other stop be fore Augusta, was near the Kennebec arsouei, where a saluto was hred from the river bank. FK03I. AUGUSTA TO THE OCEAN. More Cheering Crowds and Hand-Shaking Multitudes Along the line. Bar Harbor, Me., Aug. 8. Tho crowd that groeted the President at Augnsta, at Mr. Blaino's home, was a big one. It extended across tho depot platform and tracks, and some of its number were on tho depot roof and upon the buildings near at hand. It was a gathering typical of a Maine city, and as the train was brought to a stand-etill, and the President walked out on tho platform, he was given an oldfashioned Maine cheer. Mayor Lane intro duced the President, Then the cheering began again, and the President grasped many of the scores of hands which were held out to him. Men and women clutched the sides of tho car and clambered on tho coupling to do bo. President Harrison evidentiy enjoyed it. The train moved oil in a storm of cheers, and 177 miles of tho SOI had been covered. The President sat down to lunch with Senator Halo as soon as the train left tho Augusta depot. It was by his own wish that the lunch was served bo late. His lunch was interrupted by his arrival at Watcrville, which was signalized by a saluto. A big crowd occupied the green in front of the depot and the depot itself and gave Maine cheers as, under the escort or Governor Bnrieigh's staff officers, tho President left tho train for the first time since it started from Boston. Amid cheers and expectant looks he walked to a staging which had been erected for the purpose, and was within sight of the cars. Mayor Meader and ofcder civilians wero with him. and one gentleman explained to him that Waterville was a college town. Then, standing at the edgo of the stage, he looked out over the people and a great cheer went up. Mayor Meader then said: Fellow-citizens It Is our glad and pleasant privilego on this beautiful summer day to wel come to our etnte our Deioveti n:a xionorea President, and It Is my especial privilego to introduce to you Benjamin Harrison, President of the United States. The band played for a minute, and then President Harrison 6aid: Fellow-citizens The preparations which have been mado hero are the- most suggestive of a speech that I have seen at any place on ui 7 route. I came from Wasnington with a resolute purpose to make no speeches. The purpose oC my coming to Maine, as you weU know, was to visit your distinguished citizen, mv personal friend and Cabinet officer, James O. Blaine. Great cheering. I bee you will, therefore, allow me simply to thank you for the cordiality with which you have greeted me, to wish you all good and to bid you good-bye. Amid cheering the President retimed to the train, and to his lunch. Afterwards he devoted himself to a chat with Senator Hale. Both gentlemen went to the rear of tho train when Bangor was reached, about S:S0 r. M., while a salute was being fired. The depot platform was packed with people. Congressman Boutelle, Hon. Hannibal Hamlin, Mayor Bragg, ex-Governor Davis and other ge'nt lemen entered the President's car. Mayor Bragg told the President: T am very sorry we could not receive you more formally." Mr. Hamlin said: "The arrangements ougntto have been that we could have extended to von the hospitality that is in our hearts." The President answered. "Thank you. sir," and added a word or two which imIlied that he appreciated what was meant. Jut these remarks were interrupted br the necessity for greeting tho crowd then, if at all, and Congressman Boutelle introduea him to tho multitude, who gavo three cheers for the President. Tho lifty-live miles between Waterville and Bancor had been made in sixty-two minutes, and tho run alanz the rotMl to the lerry was made in what seemed to be just as good time. Save an occasional cheer as the train dashed throueh a station or bv a lield there was nothing out of the ordinary until Mt. Desert ferry was reached. There another crowd was met, and it was a great one, considering the size 01 the place. c?ecretary Blaine, who had como over on a spe cial boat from Bar Harbor, wafted along the platform between the peoplo, and, stepping into the car, greeted tne I'resident. With but a minute's delay, the Pres ident and his Secretary of State, followed by the rest of tho party , left the cars aud walked through the throng to the steamer, which was brightly decorated everywhere that decorations conld be placed. AT 12A11 IIARBOR. The President, Cozlly Ensconced at Mr. Elaine's Cottage, Enjoys Much Needed Best. Bar Harboi Mo., Aug. 8. The presi dential train arrived at the ferry a few minutes before the regular train, and was met by a special boat, which had only a fow passengers besides the notable ones. Messrs. Harrison and Blaine, after embarking, walked upon the upper deck and stood at the bow, looking at the boat, which started about 5 p. f. They were obliged to put on overcoats soon, for a chilly evening on the water followed a warm day on the land; but they kept their places on deck till tho wharf at Bar Harbor was reached and tho island reception began. Tho first sign of the reception came from the revenue cutter Woodbury, which was decorated, and which fired a national salute. This greeting was taken up by yachts, some of which were decorated. Then the welcome was taken up by the people on shore. The President and Mr. Blaine landed and walked along the wharf out into the street, where carriages were awaiting them. Tho two notables entered a landau, a stylish turn-out which belonged to a livery, it was eaiiL In turning a corner, one wheel grazed the wheel of another carriage, which was trying to turn at the same time, aud

A Magistrate Hires a Hall and Charges an Ad mission Fee for Visiting His Court. Fpeclsl to tli Intiaxiaxol2s Journal Vincexnes, Ind., Aug. a Perry Baker, a Farmersburg saloon-keeper, convicted of selling liquor without license, was released from the Sullivan county jail by the sheriff on account of a bad case of sore eyes. (Sub sequently he was re-arrested and placed in jail at Terre Haute, but his attorney got him out on a writ of habeas corpus, on tho ground that, having been liberated, his incarceration the second time for the same oflense was unconstitutional. The most singular feature of the case, is the justice at Farmersburg, before whom Baker was convicted, hired a hall and charged an admis sion fee of 10 cents. Jackson llinkle. Baker's attorney, was refused admittance until he paid the fee. Over lifty people paid the price 01 admission, which was quite enough to pay for the halL On this ground alono the defendant was finally released. m s THE CROXIX MURDERER. Martin Bnrie Tamed Over Yesterday to the Sheriff No Confession Made. Chicago, Aug. a Officer Collins, who acted as the extradition messenger for tho President of the United States in bring ing the Cronin suspect, Martin Burke, from Vi mnipeg, dolivered his prisoner to the sheriff this morning, and Burke was then locked up in tho boys' department of the common jail and a guard placed in the corridor to prevent any one from seeing him. This action relieved ofilcer Collins of the necessity of producing his prisoner in court under the habeas corpus proceedings before Judge Baker, and as it satisfied the contention of the lawyer, Kennedy, by placing the prisoner where his attorney could communicate with him. tho habeas corpus proceedings were dismissed. District Attorney Loncenecker denies the truth of the statement thatBurkehasmado a confession. Chief of Police McKae. of Winnipeg, gives a denial of the report that Burke mado any confession to him, but he admits that Chief Hubbard wants him in Chicago as a witness in the case. This in dicates that Burke made damaging admis sions while there. Chief Hubbard inti mated that it Was Alexander Sullivan who had sent lawyer Kennedy to Winnipeg with a view of closing Burke's mouth. A special from Montreal says: Detective Kellert left for Chicago last night. Ho says that Montreal has been the hot-bed of tho Cronin conspirators, at least one of whom he has been shadowing for months. He declares that his man will be arrested within forty-eight hours, but declines giving any further information. Attorney Kennedy succeeded this after noon in at last securing an interview with 1 1 4. 1U a i : 1 -f tr l jjui&u ut tuo cuuuijr juii. .air. xvenueuy said after the conference that if he was living when the case came to trial ho would surely represent Burke. His client, he said, did not look like a man who had been persecuted. In fact, ho was quite good natured. IT'S ALL THE KAGE. This Time a Wisconsin Central Train Is Robbed Single-Handed. Minneapolis, Aug. & Tho Wisconsin Central passenger from Chicago, which passed Chippewa Falls, Wis., at 4 o'clock this morning, was held up and robbed by a single man, between Chippewa Falls and Abbotsford, half an hour before. At tho hour named a man entered one of the sleeping cars of the train, commanded the conductor and porter to throw up their hands, and then proceeded to go through them. taking all they had. One passenger was also robbed. A shot or two was fired at the porter, but no one was hurt The robber pulled the bell-rope as soon as he had committed the robbery, and when the train came to a stop he jumped off and escaped. No attempt was made to follow him. Jacob Litt, of Milwaukee, who is also a Minneapolis theatrical manager, was a nassenirer on the sleeper, and the ball fired at the por ter wmzzcu past witnm an incn or his face. The man was described as having the ap pearance of a woodsman. Ho wore a slouch hat and carried a gun and a big knife in his belt, lie entered the sleeper and drove the porter to tho end of the car. The porter did some yelling to awake tho passengers, whereupon the robber fired. This put a quietus on the porter and tho robber got in his work. Ho took from tho conductor $30 aud a silver watcn, and from tho porter a gold watch and a small amount of. mono", and from a passenger some money and a watch. He tackled another passenger, but the latter told him the conductor had all his money. As a matter of fact, however, the man had $5C0 on his person After the Klo Grande Robbers.

LIVELY TIMES IX PARLIAMENT. Messrs. Harrington and JJalfonr Xarrovrly Escape an Exchange of Blows in the House. London, Aug. S. There was considerable uproar in the House of Commons to-night, occasioned by an altercation which, at one time, promised to end in personal violenco between Chief Secretary Balfour and Mr. Edward Harrington, member for West Kerry, Ireland. The Irish estimates wero under consideration, and tho In sh Secretary was making his speech in support of them when he took occasion to refer to the case of two resident magistrates who had refused to subscribe toward a proposed raco meeting because Mr. Harrington, who was a member of the committee, had violently denounced tho police as cowards. loafers, bullies and unitormed bloodhounds. At this Mr. Harrington iumped to his feet and demanded of Mr. Balfour his authority for such a statement. Mr. Balfour merely replied that ho had "the best authority," and was proceeding to continue his speech without further attention to his questioner when Harrington, his eyes Hashing fire and his clinched hand raised above his head, mado a rush for the speaker. Beforo he could accomplish bis evident purpose of assaulting Mr. Balfour, however, several athletic members rushed forward, and by main strength restrained tho impetuous young Irishman. Great excitement reigned, 01 course, and for a time all waa contusion. When Mr. Harrington had been quieted by his friends, and had resumed his seat, Mr. Healy arose, and.on behalf of Mr. Harrington, stated that that gentleman had been provoked not so much by Mr. Balfour's language as by an insulting gesture which he had made use of. Thereupon Mr. Balfour disclaimed any intention of insulting Mr. Harrington and this being followed by an apology on tho part of the latter gentleman, the House was enabled to settle down to its normal temperature and Mr. Balfour proceeded with his analysis of the Irish estimates. q THE MAYBRICK CASE. An Enormous Popular Movement to Obtain for Her a Reprieve. Special to tho Indi&naxmlis Journal. London, Aug. 8. Tho popular movement in Liverpool, as also in London and elsewhere in England, to obtain a reprieve for Mrs. Maybrick is assuming enormous proportions. Tho verdict is attributed entirely to the judge's charge, which in the last two hours of its delivery was characterized by a virulence which exceded even that of the prosecution. That tho verdict was a complete surprise, not only to the publio generally, but to the prosecution as well, is now certain. Mr. Addison, the prosecuting attorney, in a conversation with fcir Charles Russell, the counsel for Mrs. Maybrick on Tuesday told him he considered an acquittal certain, as there was really no evidence to convict. He said further that m tho event of a disagreement of the jury the crown would not force a new trial, but would permit the accused to be tet at liberty. although, perhaps, sureties would bo reouired for her appearance when wanted. Thi6 conversation was held after the judgo had begun his chargo. but before its con clusion. It is stated that Mrs. Maj brick's admission of adultery very seriously In jured her defense, and but for this admis sion it is believed sho would liavo been acquitted. Mrs. Maybrick Prostrated. Liverpool, Ang. & Mrs. Maybrick, who was found guilty yesterday of poison ing her husband, aud sentenced to death. has broken down under the gTeat strain tc which she has been subjected for days past, and is said to be seriously ill. Her mothei called at tho prison to-day and had ar affectionate interview with the prisoner. A memorial to the government in behalf of Mrs. Maybrick has been signed by most ol the barristers and solicitors of tho Liverpool circuit. The memorial asks that the prisoner be reprieved, on the ground of the connecting nature of tho medical evidence given at her trial. A similar petition is boing circulated among the merchants and brokers, and is receiving many hignatures. There is a general ferment throughout the country against tho verdict. BOULANGEK'S TRIAL. The Proceedings Begun Yesterday Accusa tions of the I'rocureur-General. Paris, Aug. 8. The High Court of Im peachment for the trial of General Boulangcr, Henri Rochefort, Count Dillon and others, on the charge of high treason, opened its sittings this morning at tho Palais du Justice. Tho summons commanding the accused to appear to answer the chargo against them was read, after which tho trial was opened by a speech on the part of tho Procureuer-general, who accused Boulangcr of atteiipting while in Tunis to play the role ot viceroy; of associating with immoral characters, and, while Minister of War, of having his portrait taken as Cromwell. tho Protector, and showing it to secret agents. These agents the Procureuor denounced as swindlers and bullies. M. Rochefort and Count Dillon were described by the Procureuerfeneral as accomplices of General Ionian gcr. Count Dillon, ho said, had been expelled from tho army and was worthy to participate in disloyal riots. Immediately on conclusion of tho 'rocureuer-generars address tho Right will question tho competency of the high court to try the defendant. It is generally understood that an indictment will bo framed which will be so worded as to give the English government no alternative, should the accused be within its jurisdiction, than to assent to their extradition. It is given out that in that event, the General and his companions will lose no time in getting on the high seas en routo to the United States. THE BRITISH LION ROARING.
