party and prohibition vote is light.

gressing very slowly owing to the Aus
tralian system, which is being used for
the first time. It requires from six to
ten minutes for the voters to prepare

ceived up to noon indicate that the re
publican state ticket is in the lead.

This Morning Russian Grain
Expert Stopped.
Ha.leton, Pa., Nov. 2. Lizzie Drom,
aged fourteen years, was attacked by an
Italian at Turlock last night, as she was
leaving a church on Green street, in the
most populous partxf tne city. The
Italian sprang from behind a tree as she
was passing, and seizing her by the
throat, shoved her violently against a
fence. The girl fought the villian
bravely, but. the firm clutch at her
throat prevented her at first from mak
ing any outcry, By a desperate effort,
however, she wrenched the Italian's
hand away and screamed loudly for
help. Her cries of "Murder !" caused a
commotion among the congregation,
who were just coming from the church.
P. F. Boyle,, president of the council,
who witnessed the assault, and a num
ber of others ran to the girl's rescue.
When the fiend saw them approaching,
he let go of his victim and ran down the
street. A number or tne congregation
followed. He dodged through several
streets, closely followed by his pursuers,
and finally managed to make his escape.
The girl was badly frightened, and part
of her clothing was torn, but she sus
tained no serious injury from the assault...
She believes she could recognize her as
sailant again, and the police are already
looking for him. His motive no doubt .
was robbery, as the girl wore some jew
elry, whose glitter probably attracted
his attention and invited the attack.
Considering the locality and time of the '
attempted robbery, the assault was one
of the boldest ever made in this city.
Want It for a Timber Reserve.
Washington, Nov. 3. Commissioner
Carter of the general land office received

The Trial of the Question on Appeal
Regan This Morning.
London, Nov. 2. In the court of ap
peals the Maybrick case was commenced
today. Sir Charles Russell, in opening
his argument, said the appeal raised a
most important question. The plain
tiffs, for whom he appealed, were the
executors of the late Mr. Maybrick, whd
bad effected an insurance of $10,000 with
the defendants, the insurance company,.,
in favor of his wife, Mrs. Florence May
brick, now confined in the working jail.
Defendants' counsel said lie had paid on
account $1000 of the amount claimed,
but that they refused to pay the remain
der. In support of this refusal he said
defendants admitted the conviction of
Mrs. Maybhick was not conclusive.
Continuing, Sir Charles said on the con
trary, the plaintiffs submitted the fact -
that the sentence was commuted was
not an evidence of innocence. The real
question was whether Mr. Maybrick,
having effected a policy in favor of his
wife, and whether, assuming he died at
her hands, this was any answer to Uie
executor's claims. The ex-attorney- -general
then proceeded to cite authori
ties in favor ol contention. The present
appeal grew out of a judgment given
July 20 last, in an action brought in the
interest of Mrs. Mryhrick against the
insurance association, to recover SflO.OUO
insurance ujon her husband's life. The
court then decided, as Mrs. Maybrick
had been convicted of having murdered
her husband she could not recover the
amount for which his life was insured,
as his death was caused by the person
for whose benefit the action was brought.
The day after this judgment was ren
dered, a high legal authority made the
assertion that the insurance association's
refusal to pay Mrs. Maybrick the insur
ance on her husband's life, on the ground
that his death was caused by her, would
enable the convicted woman to bring
out in a civil action facts traversed in
the murder trial, since she could compel
