TATEST FROM MAINE. ‘Bpecial Dispateh to The Koo PoTLaND, Me., September 16, 3 a. m.—The most relinble information in- dicates very small republican gains in four of the thirty-two towns in Knox and Oxford couaties, but little is yet known from Aroostook o-unty, upon which hangs the result, and the gaine predicted by the fusionists. A fow towns from Aroostook show mo sitm from last year's count. There still re- mains ninety towns, mostly from Aroostook, to hear from, and should they fo'low in line with those report- ed, it will leave a fusion majority of 800.

The state is 80 ovel whelmingly democratic that it is scarcely expected that any perscn nominated will be elected. The gub-. ercatorial nominee is Col. D. P.

Bpecial Dispateh 10 The Bec. SN Fraxcisco, September 16, 1 a. m.—The nomination of Kalloch by the ward presidents of the working- Men's party is soarcely considered a news item. No election has been or- dered and none likely to be. A proc- lamation will not be issued by Kailoch unless trdered by the supremé court, aud it is understood that the court will hold that the present cfficials continue in office till next year. Dem ocratic manipulators have cffccied a sott of fusion with the Kalloch branch of the workingmen to divide up the officea and put a joiut ticket in_the field, in case of an election, or perhaps whether there fsa proclamation or not, and take the elim chance of a de- cision in their fwor by the suprems court after the electisn, The republicans will not call a con- vention to nominate city officers, but if obliged to put a ticket in the field to prevent the election going by de- fault, will repominate the republicans #t present holding office and have the county committes select candidates for the other offices. The Kearney branchof the work- ingmen will be governed by the action of the supreme court in the cise now before it. Kalloch says that the nomination before was equivalent_to electton and the nomination now is paramount to election. at it was said that be was shot into office before, but somebsdy. else has been shot since. EALLOCH'S HUGE FRAUDS. Election Commitsioner Tillson, in the meeting _yosterday, charged that there was a plan on foot, by Kalloch aud his colleagaes, to put five thou- j send frauduleat names on the poll lists.
