VOL. XXXVIII. AUGUSTA, MAINE TUESDAY MORNING. MARCH 20,1907. NO, 73 AN EXPLANATION Concerning Charges Is Made By Minister Peirce, Acted as Counsel With Govern ment’s Permission. Ship Owners Have Failed to Keep Agreement, He Asserts. Boston, March 2J.—Herbert D. Peirce, United States minister to Norway, ar rived in Boston today on the White Star steamship Cymric from Liverpool, to spend a vacation with his family in Cambridge. Mr. Peirce gave an inter view on the question of the charges which were the subject of a recent hearing before a congressional commit tee concerning his receiving pay during arbitration proceedings at The Hague in the matter of the suit brought by fou American sealing vessels to recover damages from the Russian1 government for alleged illegal seizure and deten tion. Prof. If. W. Klliott of Cleveland. O.. brought the charges before the com mittee. which after consideration of papers from the late Secretary of State oJhn Hay and Secretary of State Kliliu Root, in which they hold Mr. Peirce to have acted perfectly within his rights, dismissed the charges. Mr. Peirce said: “The dispute between tiic Russian government and the American scaling vessels occurred while I was charge d'affaires at The Hague in 1S»4 and 11101 and as the United States government representatives there during the seven years of the controversy, I was thor oughly conversant with the matter. One of the vessels was a New Bedford whaling bark owned by Wing Co., and there were besides three schoon ers, one of which was owned by the Ragle Co. of San Francisco. They final ly asked me to act as their counsel m the matter and I immediately wrote to Washington asking for permission t act as counsel for the American ship owners for a stipulated remuneration which the ship owners and l had agreed upon. The state department at once wired ime their permission for me t act as counsel for pay. The Russian government, however, refused to sub mit the matter to arbitration unless they could treat with an official United States government representative and this phase I also wrote the state de partment at Washington about. Again they gave ime their permission to act in an official capacity and thus I was in a double role, as the United States representative and as paid counsel for the fishing vessels, i won tin* case for the ship owners and secured for them damages from the Russian government for the loss of time during the detcii nun. “Tlien when I tried to pet my fee as counsel for the ship owners, upon whit h I had a written agreement. I found that they had taken the ease from me without the jurisdiction of the District of Columbia to Pan Francisco, and I accordingly brought suit. That is the sum and substance of the whole affair The ship owners simply did not keer their agreement to pay me the counsel foe upon which they had agreed. In concluding the interview Mr Peirce said that it seemed hardly just that any objection should be made to n United States representative abroa taking an offered opportunity wrth I he sanction of the state department t earn "a little 'money on the side," es pecially when lie personally was spend ing four time the salary he receive*I t. keep uji the standing of the Ann-near foreign department in the diplomatic circles. The Cymric was delayed for 4* hours by continuous head winds and high seas. A Greek immigrant \Vas found af flicted with ttie smallpox soon after the ship left Liverpool and h- was re moved to the detention hospital upon the Cymric’s arrival here today. i b ship's docking was delayed until till tin steerage passengers had been vaccinat ed. Asked concerning the Nobel peace prize, which was awarded to President ltoosevclt. Mr. Peirce said that t!w choice of President ltoosevclt was ex tremely popular among all classes of Norway, the opinion being practically unanimous that the prize was most justly conferred. Mr. IVirc- said he had nothing furth*r to say in connection with the award, the matter having been closed In previous despatches. FIRE AT TOP3HAM Building Used as Grocery Store Burned—Loss $4,750.

Buying Demand Gives Prices a Ral ly Toward Close of Day—Prices Also Break In Boston. f Now York. March —There was a violent slump in prices on the Stock Exchange again today, accompanied by exciting trading, but without news to account for it other than a decline in metal prices in London and higher rates for call money. The monetary situation did not seem to attract much attention, however, stud according to brokers and members of banking firms there was nothing to explain the rapid melting away of prices except that holders of stocks wanted to sell them and apparently did not care much as to the price they got for their shares. American Smelting was one of the weakest features, falling an extreme 1314 points, but the United States Steel Corporation shares and the railroads also made wide declines. It was note worthy that throughout the day there was entire absence of the disturbing rumors of a fortnight ago to the effect that important failures were impend ing. Hankers generally said that no one was in difficulties, that brokerage houses had protected themselves with ample margins and that whatever might be the underlying cause of the recent precipitate declines in marked quotH'ions, they did not believe that it was fear of any failing to meet his lia- j bilities. Th market opened irregular, wild some stocks showing a rather strong tone, among them Canadian Pacific, which was up two points. The fluctu ations w• break in the price of copper wore believed to be largely responsible for today's declines. SUICIDE AT MONMOUTH. I Mr. Billings, Aged Naval Veteran, Ends His Own Life.

I NO DECISION By Justice Fitzgerald In the Harry Thaw Case. Simply Adjourns Court Until 10.30 A. M. Wednesday. Nothing But Speculation as to a Lunacy Commission. New York, March 25.—In anticipation t.f some action on the part of Justice Fitzgerald regarding the appointment of a lunacy commission for Harry K. Thaw, District Atorney Jerome and all ot the counsel for the defence were present in the criminal branch of the supreme court at 10 o’clock this morn ing. Justice Fitzgerald had tixe.l that hour for notifying the lawyers in case he should desire further evidence from either side or an argument of any sort. The defendant’s family were all in court.

Justice Fitzgerald is not expected to make his decision known until court assembles Wednesday morning. It he decides to appoint a commission he will probably lirst excuse the jurors iu deliniteiy, informing tlvni that they wilt be dully notified when their pres ence is again desired. Then after the jury retires he will formally announce the appointnvnt of a commission. If the judge decides not to appoint a coin mission he may make no other an nouncement than to direct that the trial prng the gutter.

Charles Waldstein. v.l'.i is quoted as saying tliat lie is most pleaded with itie splendid archaeologi cal and artistic program of the Italian government, especially its decision to begin excavations at Herculaneum. The professor added that he could not say it", now or in the future, he would again take up his plan for excavations, especial.^ owing to the disorganization of the committees appointed to collect funds, which was the result of recent happenings.

STUDENTS CAUSE TROUBLE. Two Classes of School At Expelled Bodily for Exploding Bombs. Kt. Petersburg. March 25.—The High School of Sciences, situated on Vasili island was the scene today of a series ef explosions which fortunately, brought no serious casualties in their tram. The explosions were engineered by members of the Senior and Junior classes, whom the faculty were able to cxrel bodily for offences against disci pline. The first deafening explosion occurred in the lecture hall during a lecture.

Brush Makes Good Showing—Mertes May Not Play On Team. 'ThomasriHe, Oa.. March 25.—The Boston Nationals put in a very «iuiet Sunday here. The •weather was perfect and more restful conditions could not well have been imagined. It can be put down as a settled mat ter that Pam Mertes will not play with the Boston club this season. It seems that when iMertes signed with the St. Louis team it was agreed that lie should receive *4000 if he played there this year. St. Louis did not care to sign him at that price, but that does not mean that Boston, to which he has been turned, will have to pay him that figure. Mertes' appeal to the commis sion can amount to nothing, for the reason that if that body should decide that Mertes must be paid that sum if he plays with Boston, the latter would simply turn him loose. Boston now has Howard, Brush and Bates. Brush shows up very well in deed. He has had considerable experl MANY GOOD MEN. Ptenly of Material Signed For Augusta Club. Ucil Team 6ins Out First List s( Players Signed. Two Exhibition Games Planned For Patriots' Day. The baseball magnates in the Maine State League are all hustling these days to get the best available material to make up their team, and at the same time keep within the salary limit of 1900 per month, exclusive of the play ing manager or captain. Manager Wreath believes he has a team signed now that will hold its own with any team in the league. The signing of KVed Gibbs was a big step in the right direction and as a first pitcher he will be r tower of strength to the already strong team Manager Wreath has signed. Contrary to the usual run of pitchers Gibbs is a good batter, and can play a good game In the Infield and outfield. Manager Wreath believes he has a find In young Skinner of Rockland. Ed Kenniston says he has a fine arm. good control, speed to burn and brains to back him up. With McDuffee. the clever southpaw of Dartmouth College, to complete the start of the three regu lar pitchers, and Love in the outfield as a utility pitcher, this should make formidable array of twirling talent. Bert Kelly of North Andover, Mass., comes highly recommended by Hender son and Ftollensbee as a backstop who will make good. The third station was one that gave Manager Wreath consid erable trouble. In landing young Mc Dermott of Boston he knows he has a winner, for Johnnie Mooney would not recommend a man unless he knew he was O. K. O’Neil at short is well-known to the ence in a baseball way, and looks like a good batsman and fielder. He made the trip with the club just for fun, and sized up so well to Tenney that the lat ter asked him if he did not desire to re main with the team. He will receive a good trying out. A HEAVY WEEK. College Schedule Calls for Some Live ly Baseball Games. Boston, March 25.—With Yale, Cor nell. Princeton, Lafayette and Colum bia in the South this week, the college schedule is one of the heaviest of the first part of the baseball season. In fact, few more games will be play ed in the later m mths when the teams are in the North, and certainly no one team will have an average of as many games a week as the teams now taking the Southern trip. The big game of the week from the standpoint of interest and probable good baseball is the Prineeton-George town clash at Washington on Satur day. Both teams have shown excellt tit early season form already, and, al though the Tigers will have trouble in selecting a second strong pitcher should Heyniger go back on them, the game should be a good one. Princeton bids fair to have a heavy hitting nine this year, as usual. BASEBALL NOTES. The Philadelphia Athletics are now in New Orleans. Malaehi Kittridge’s Montreal team begun training at Hampton, Pa., Mon day. The Phillies and Athletics will open their home season 'April 3. instead of three day earlier, as at first planned. Fred Poe lias written to President Taylor of the Boston Americans for men with whom to recruit his Provi dence team. “Doc” Edwards has already shown the wisdom of carrying a man of his calibre to handle the players of the Boston Nationals. Not a sore arm has yet been chronicled. The Newark team of t!i-* Eastern League plans making a New England invasion this spring and will play Wa terbury April 15-16; Worcester, April 17-18; Fall River, April 13-20. Goldie Morgan, who played third base for the Boston Americans tiie lat ter part of last season and is now a student in the Harvard Law School, will join the Montreal team at the end of the college year. The Cincinnati Club will probably carry 18 men through the season. Five outfielders, four regular infielders and a substitute, three catchers and five pitchers will be the combination.

Barker of Boston successfully defended his title as (national checker champion today in the final game of this year's tournament with August J. Heffner, also of this city. Bar ker receives the first prize, $1W, the other money winners in the tournament being Heffner. $150; L. 8. Head of BronxviHe, $S0; H. V. Reynolds of Syracuse, $iM. those four finishing in the major division; If. Zink of Boston. SGO; Willis A .Hill of Lowell, $40. and George Andrews of Bos ton. $t>0, the last three finishing in that order in the minor section. From the players who participated in this year's tournament a team of five will be selected to g1) to Great Britain next year and play English and Scottish teams for the international championship. Col. Albert L. Meyer, lltli Cavalry, lias been selected for promotion to the rank of brigadier general to fill a va cancy created by the death of Gen. Wint. fans hereabouts and needs no mention. O'Laughlln and Whooley will fight it out for second base. Henderson writes he is getting in fine shape by indoor work, and will give a good account of himself at first base during the sea son. Those who saw him perform last summer will not doubt that in ttie least. This infield will be as fast as any in the league. Quite a bunch of outfielders have been signed, and it will be nip and tuck between them to land the positions. Talbot, who played on the Winthrop team two years ago has been signed for center field. Last season at Salem. Mass., be led that fast team in hitting and fielding with a batting average of .328 and fielded for .980. Geo. McHugh of Shnford hit .312 on the Bridgeport. Connecticutt League club, and in 24 games had only three errors in center field. He had trouble with the management on the salary question, and will not report this sea son. Thomas Hickey, another out fielder. is vouched for by Captain O'Laughlin as being a good man to lead off the batting order on account of his ability to bunt and beat out the ball. He is a left band hitter. Edward Love of Auburn is another who will be tried out. Love is an outfielder and pitcher. George Arata of Hallowell will be given a chance to make an out field position. Charles Lee of Holyoke, Mass., whom Jessie Burkett, manager of the Worcester club has signed, writes Manager Wreath that if he can use him he would rather play in Maine than Massachusetts, Manager Wreath has seen Lee play, and it is likely he will be signed. Numerous fans lia\e been beseigjng Manager Wreath to play a game or two on Patriots' day next month. Mr. Wreath has acquiesc ed and will get a team together fot that day. One game will be played in the forenoon at the Driving park, and the afternoon game will be played on the Hallowell grounds, weather per mitting.

Many Good Bouts On This Week’s Program. Two Matches Will Be Given at Rockland, Maine. Four Good Shows Are to Be Given In Philadelphia, Pa. Boston, March L’5.—Local boxers arc billed to appear in several of the more important bouts of the coming week in various parts of the country, and while there is little boxing hereabouts, ex cepting in Chelsea, Tuesday night Bos ton will have enough to keep it inter ested in the tighting game for one week at least. Tuesday night Jack (Twin) Sullivan of Cambridge will tight Jack Palmer, the Fnglishinan, in the latter’s initial appearance- in this country in Los An geles, and Hilly Rhodes, who might now be called a local fighter, is again to fight Bill Papke in Davenport, while Wednesday night Belfield Walcott will fight in Rockland, Me., and on Thurs day night Blink McCIoskey, who is now in New York, will tight Willie Lewis there. The Winnisimmet A. C. eif Chelsea will hold its regular meeting tomorrow nignt, in which Bartley Connolly of Portland, Me., will be on -in the feature bout with Jerry Gaines, the market champion. In addition to this event there will be three others, that between Frank Mantell of Pawtucket and Cur ley Williams of Lynn being looked up on as a close second in importance to the main bout. That the club will hold a show this week is a bit unexpected in some quarters for it was thought that tile event would be postponed on ac count of the issuance of warrants aftei the visit of the State police to the ciul last Tuesday night, hut the directors promise to hold the show. Matty Baldwin, the local fighter bill ed for a Western engagement this week will take the first step when he fights Bezenali of his march to a champion ship mapped out for him by Johnnk Mack, his present manager. iMack has felt for a jear or two that Baldwin wa> a champion, and wanted to get him ai work in the West in order to bring birr prominently before the public. Lasl week lie won his first figiit there, bu: when he meets Bezenah he will g: against just about as hard a proposi tion as he has ever tackled. FOUR GOOD SHOWS.

One particular in which Bondon did offer an acutely depressing factor was in the disorder in her metai markets. Cooper and tin both show heavy declines anil speculative commit ments in the copper market were said to be involved. Largo jmciled holdings of metal indus trial securities were believed to lie touch ed by the demoralized declines. Holders of Amalgamated Copper and of United States Steel seemed ito be suddenly aiwak emu to the recollection of past perform ances in these securities following the. tpiick transformation from the condition of great prosperity in their trades to acute depression anil rapid shrinkage of earnings. Individual operations on the short side in at least one instance were In keyed to bo Ilf prodigious proportions. These op erations seemed to be entirely unopposed by interests.

One of the Important Doties of Physicians and the Well-Informed of the World is to learn as to the relative standing and reliability of the leading manufactur ers of medicinal agents, as the most eminent physicians arc the most careful as to the uniform quality and perfect purity of remedies prescribed by them, and it is well known to physicians and the Well-Informed generally that the California Fig Syriip Co., by reason of its correct methods and perfect equipment and the ethical character of its product has attained to the high standing in scientific and commercial circles which is accorded to successful and reliable houses only, and, therefore, that the name of the Company has become a guarantee of the excellence of its remedy. TRUTH AND QUALITY appeal to the Well-Informed in every walk of life and are essential to permanent suc cess and creditable standing, therefore we wish to call the attention of all who would enjoy good health, with its blessings, to the fact that it involves the question of right living with all the term implies. With proper knowledge of what is best each hour of recreation, of enjoyment, of contemplation and of effort may be made to contribute to that end and the use of medicines dispensed with generally to great advantage, but as in many instances a simple, wholesome remedy may be invaluable if taken at the proper time, the California Fig Syrup Co. feels that it is alike important to present truthfully the subject and to supply the one perfect laxative remedy which has won the appoval of physicians and the world-wide acceptance ot the Well-Informed because of the excellence of the combination, known to all, and tbe original method of manufac ture, which is known to the California Fig Syrup Co. only. This valuable remedy has been long and favorably known under the name of— Sj’rup of Figs—and has attained to world-wide acceptance as the most excellent of family laxatives, and as its pure laxative principles, obtained from Senna, are well known to physicians and the Well-Informed of the world to be the best of natural v laxatives, we have adopted the more elal>orate name oi—Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna—as more fully descriptive of the remedy, but doubtless it will always be called for by the shorter name of Syrup of Figs—and to get its beneficial effects always note, when purchasing, the full name of the Company California Fig Syrup Co.— plainly printed on the front of every package, whether you simply call for Sj’rup of Figs—or by the full name—Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna—as—Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is the one laxative remedy manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. and the same heretofore known by the name Syrup of Figs which has given satisfaction to millions. The genuine is for sale by all leading druggists throughout the United States in original packages of one size only, the regular price of which is fifty cents per bottle. Every bottle is sold under the general guarantee of the Company, filed with the Secretary of Agriculture, at Washington, D.

The long drawn out contest over th question of the removal of Slate cap ital to Portland ratne to a close yes terday when the House of Representa tives by a vote of fit to l«; refused to recede from its vote of Thursday and concur with the Senate, and to adhere to its vote adopting report "B" of the committee on public buildings and grounds finding legislation inexpedient, in spite of the frantic efforts of the city of Portland and its lavish expenditure of money, the voice of the people of Maine—expressed with a greater em phasis than ever before on any public question-has prevailed. Their repre sentatives have stood firmly lor their wishes, and have defeated the most un called for. extravagant, and needless proposition that has been before th Legislature of Maine since the close of the Civil War. The people of Maine will approve the aetion of the men who have stood by the expressed wishes of their constituents, and will honor them lor their constancy and courage in the face of the most powerful and persist ent lobby influences ever encountered in the history of Stale legislation. The city of Augusta can never hope to cope with Portland in a contest of dol lars; ils strength has lain in the right eousness of its cause, and the over whelming support of the voters and taxpayers of Maine. Never, in the his tory of our country has there been u. more striking instance of sordiilic sl proposition. In tlx; bitterness of their disappoint mint the Port In ml 'boomers have in dulged iii much intemperate talk. They have even attackeil Governor Cobb in most virulent terms tcceausi he lei it be known that lie was opposed to this infamous scheme, so fraught with far reaching, and disastrous const i|ucnees to tin- taxpayers! .Anil why. pray, should he not thus safe-guard the welfare of the citizens of Maine? That is what they elected him to do. and they wii! honor him for having the courage to st a nil for t heir inti rests in the face of the powerful Portland lobby which m vadt 1 every corner of the capital in tent upon ignoring and subverting the overwind ningly expressed wish- of tin taxpayers. It was a case of Peo ple vs. Portland, and Governor oi U honored hintsclf and the high office he holds by standing for the |Mip|.\ Villi fier.tinn and vituperation on the purl or disappointed Portland Istotmis only strengthen him in the g.md opine of the taxpayers of our «i.itc\ w idle the same time it feve.es the lit. weakness and folly of Portland s call* It is sui prising that th«-re i* no v i iremolial of till poet lawn Itost. in Piunliridge. 01 In at place iii Mnssachuurtts. although l.ongfell.iw Memorial Association w; founded and ili« ni |a>rated In I tost on a nuarter of a century ago.

Many others are to have state buddings—“almost all." says tbe cor respondent What is Maine to do? Is tiie matter to go by default? A commis sion was appointed and this commis sion has planned'' to reproduce at Nor folk the Longfellow mansion in tflns city a capital idea, in view of th-- great popularity of the poet and the uniter sal intorast in what pertains to him, as shown, by the number of visitors to the i I house every year, and especially in vi'Mv of the recent celebration of the Longfellow centennial. The time is short, and if anything is to be done it will have to be done soon. The commis i sion is powerless without funds. A bill appropriating $15,000 is pending in the Legislature. It must be passed soon if at all. Tiie sum is not a large one. and it would seem a pity for Maine to go unrepresented at the Jamestown cen tennial. Besides the expenditure would be Pkcly to bring returns in attracting tourists to our State—Portland Press. The bill in its present form appropri ates directly only $5000. It provides, however, for $500 to be paid by the State for every $500 raised by private subscription, up to $10,000. In order, therefore, to secure 15,0' -0 from the State tip- commission would have to secure $10,into additional from private soup-' S. With this sum at its command the State, at comparatively small out lay. would be able to make a very cred itable showing at the exposition. In its pr.-«*nt form we apprehend that the liili will meet with general public ap proval, and we do not apprehend any serious opposition to it in the Legisla ture. especially in view of the fact that every other Xew England state has al ready made provision to be represent ed at t it is exposition, which gives ev ery promise of being one of the most notable ever held in the history of the i epublic. Effects of Insurance Agitation.

The young daughter of a government officer whose duties keep him almost constantly on hoard ship between this 'neatly and Ihirope, tells an interest ing tale of the use Iter father made of Nature's fond remedy to ear** an at tack of malarial fever. “Father recently returned from a long sea-trip, bed-ridden ami emaciated front tin attack of malarial chills and fever.'' she writes: “In such eases i*>o ple usually dose themselves with medi cines. and w* were surprised when he. instead f mplnying drugs, proceeded to devote himself exclusively to Postum Food Coffee, of which he has long been fond. He used two or more ups at each meal, drinking it very hot, and between meals quenched his fever-.mgendi r* d thirst at all hours of the day and right from a supply we kept toady in the water-cooler. For several days his only drink anil some times his only food was Postum Coffee, hot or cold, according to the moment's fancy. “Within a day or two his improve ment was noticeable, and within a week he was a well man again, able to resume his arduous occupation. “He first began to ihink Postum Food Coffee several years ago. as a remedy for insomnia, for which lie found it invaluable, and likes it so much and finds it so beneficial that lie always uses it when he is at home where he can got it."

Educative “Art.” Columbia t 'nivei-sity is to be cnn gratulated on tlie* exhibition of Russian revolutionary cartoons. which was opened in tlic university library re cently. '1 'lie pictures have no dreamy charm; none of them is “lovely," and many of them am not art at all. lhti no pictorial show in this city over had a tit-eater edwativo value. Few Americans know much uhnut Russian history or Russian conditions. Si’ll f'-wer liavc any knowledge of the Russian language. And the history making epoch of the past two years is the minder to our people because we have come to depend on the newspaper for our information; and a really sati1 factory analysis of the Russian situation would be too complex and too historical to find or force for itself the confession of newspaper space. Our American masses see in the great white czar the apotheosis of tyranny; in the Cossack's whip, and the deliber ately applied knout, and the horror of Siberia the agencies of unbridled power. The translations of Russian literature have never been popular enough to create a general conception of the society-framework which is rack-si and shaken by the revolution ary movement. The average Yankee can understand a rebellion siteec-ssful, or a r- hellion crushed. What puzzles him is tin- absence of either intelligible condition in Russia.—I’.rooklyn Kagie. Use for Dogwood.

Chicago Miss Supposed to Be Kidnapped Says She Lett Home Willingly and Will Not Return. Shielded By Wife of Man For Whom She Ran Away. Chicago, March 25.—A girl, supposed to have been abducted, was found yes terday where she had been hidden by the wife of the alleged abductor. Until v. ifr and young girl profess to love the man and will make every effort to shield him from punishment. The girl is la-year-old Goldie May Walters, for whom the police had been searching since March 14. She was thought to have been abducted by friends of John M. Clark, who is in jail on charges brought by the girl’s moth er. She was found in Mrs. William JIc Kentie’s flat in Oakley avenue by de tectives. Mrs. Clark, wife of the man in jail, is under arrest on a charge of abduc tion. as is also Thomas Lynch. Mrs. McKenzie is a friend of Mrs. Jennie A. Kieft, the mother of Mrs. Clark, and the police say it was through the agency of Mrs. Clark and Mrs. Kieft and Lynch that the girl had been kept in hiding. In spite of the fact that the girl by her own admission had been the means of alienating the affections of Clark from his wife, Mrs. Clark befriended her and because of them endeavored to shield the man. Mrs. Clark is 20 years old and the mother of a 3-year-old boy. The fugitive girl told her captors that she did not regret leaving her home and her parents, who were nearly prostrat ed by her absence, and that she had no intention of returning home so long as her absence would save Clark from punishment. She said she had not boon taken away forcibly, but that her ab duction was the result of a plan worked out by herself, the execution of which was brought about by Lynch and Mrs. Clark at her request. A NARROW ESCAPE. Family of Eight Flees In Night Clothes from Burning House. Melrose, Mass., March 24.—James Hallahan, his wife and six children, whose ages range from eight to 21 years, narrowly escaped death in a tire that destroyed their home on Park street early today. The fire started from an overheated furnace in the cellar and worked up through the par titions and by way of the staircases to the first and second floors. Abbie Hallahan, the eldest daughter, was first to learn of the fire. She awakened when the bed clothes in her room were burning. She jumped from the bed and ran through the house, waking the other members of the family. The only means of escape, the staircase, was burning when the eight persons fied from the house in their night clothes. All were somewhat burned, although in no case were the burns serious. The house was vir tually destroyed, but the loss was not heavy. DAMAGE IS $30,000. Fall River Laundry Plant Destroyed By Early Morning Fire. Fall River, Mass., March 23.—Fire starting from some unknown causa near the engine room in the Fall River laundry Co's. plant at 4 o'clock this morning, destroying the building and its contents, causing a loss estimated at about $30,000. There was also con j siderable water loss to several busi ness firms, occupying an adjoining block likewise owned by the laundry company. The laundry building was of four stories, one half wood and other half brick, located in a thickly settled district. The call upon the fire men to the laundry fire was the 16th call since Saturday noon but the others were all to only incipient fires. READY TO PROCEED. Ruef's Attorneys Withdraw Writ of Error and Want the Case Tried. San Francisco. March 23.—Abraham Ruef's attorneys have, it is said, with drawn their writ of error filed with the United States supreme court and state ttiat they are now anxious to proceed at once with the trial on a charge of extortion. Attorney Frank Murphy said last night: "We have instructed our representa tive in Washington to withdraw the writ of error filed by us. This de cision was reached on account of the decision of the state supreme court to the effect that the participation of an incompetent juror does not affect the validity of an indictment. We will proceed without further delay with the trial of Abraham Ruef." PROMINENT PUBLISHER DIES. Edwin B. Haskell, Former Editor of Boston Herald, Is Dead. Boston.

Setting aside the mule that the Nic araguans are alleged to have stolen in the frontier town of Las Manos one night, the cause of the conflict appar ently Is found In the, ambitions of Pres ident Zelaya of Nicaragua, to see as chief executive of Honduras a man who would favorably consider the claims of Nicaragua in the matter of determin ing the boundary between the two countries. On the other hand it is as serted in some quarters that President Ronalli brought about the trouble for the solo purpose of averting disaster at the hands of the revolutionary party daily growing stronger in Honduras. A feature of the conflict has been that each country has time and again disavowed any and all responsibility for the war, each throwing the blame en tirety upon the other. Accusations and counter accusations from both govern ments concerned have been taken up. WOUNDED PRISONERS HANGED. Injured Nicaraguans Strung Up and Bodies Horribly Mutilated. Managua, Nicaragua, March 23.—A few details of the capture of the Hon duran-Salvadorean position at Cholu teca by the Nicaraguan forces have been received. The Nicaraguans cap tured 1000 rifles, a large amount of ammunition anil quantities of field equipment of all kinds. The Hondurans and Salvadoreans had 200 men killed and about an equal number wounded. Some of the Nicaraguan wounded who were captured by the enemy be fore President Bonilla fled are reported to have been hanged and their bodies barbarously mutilated. President Zelaya has issued orders to the Ni caraguan forces that all wounded prisoners are to be treated with proper care. BY ARBITRATION. United States and Mexico Will Find Way of Restoring Peace. Washington, March 25.—Mr. Creel, the Mexican ambassador, and Mr. Corea the-Nicaraguan minister, called at the state department today to dis cuss the Central American war with Mr. Root, and although Mexico and the Uniter States government have not as yet found a way to restore harmony, it is believed that an arbitration will be effected soon. Nicaragua is unwilling to make overtures for peace as such a step would be regarded by President Zel aya as an indication that lie stands in fear of Salvador, the avowed ally of Honduras and Guatemala, which country is supposed to be ready to as sist Honduras. If the United States and Mexico were to jointly advise Salvador and Guate mala that they must remain neutral, it is held by friends of President Zel aya that the war would come to an end as Honduras lias been defeated, and its capital, even, is expected to fall into the hands of the Nicaraguans in a few days. It is known, however, that Mexico and the United States do not wish to take any active part in peace nego tiations, unless Nicaragua indicates in some manner that it desires peace. SAN MARCOS SACKED. American Financial Interests Suffer In Central American War. Puerto Cortez, Honduras, March 21. via New Orleans. March 25.—News of the sacking- of San Marcos, Honduras, under pitiful circumstances on account of a fresh revolt in the interior of Hon duras and information of considerable financial loss to American interests be cause of the war have been received here. The sacking of San Marcos was related by General Gareamo of the Honduran army, whom Nicaraguan dispatches said had been killed at San Maricos Feb. 26. General Garcanto of the Honduran army was concealed for several days after bis defeat at San Marcos and finally gained the Honduras lines uninjured. He then gave an ac count of the outrages perpetrated on the wont* n and defenceless citizens of the captured town, which he said was looted and sacked by the soldiers of Nicaragua. Details of his story have not reached here. The revolt reported here occurred at Camaygua, Honduras, where yesterday. March 20, 150 men armed and captured the place. A force of COO men was sent from San Pedro to suppress this on the way to Camaygua. The principal losses to Americans have occurred in the banana industry. Reports of fighting telegraphed to Puerto Cortez do not paint the situa tion as bad for the arms of Honduras and Salvador as do the Nicaraguan telegrams. A column of Honduran soldiers under General Chomorro lias slipped past the Nicaraguan lines and is marching into the interior of Nicaragua, raising a re vo't aginst Zealaya. An official report reached here that on March 11 this col umn captured Totomalpa, Nicaragua, after 13 hours of fighting and wounded or killed 100 Nicaraguans, besides cap turing considerable ammunition. Tite batttle of Lose Portillos De N'a masque. which the Nicaraguans claim ended in disaster to the allied Hondu ran and Salvadorean armies, was re ported by officials at the capital of Hondttrs as probably the greatest bat tle in the history of Central America. On the second day of the battle the dis patches announced that 10,000 men were engaged. That the allies after forcing Nicaraguan outposts had trained 60 cannon upon the enemy's main en trenchments, which were on a hill and that the mortality :t both sides was heavy. Immediately r.'t r receipt of these dispatches telegraphic communi cation was interrupted and the only news of the final day of the battle has come from Nicaraguan sources, which claims that the allies wore defeated with 1000 killed or wounded. Dr. A. F. Gibson writes: “It may seem strange to us. thoueh the fact neverthe less remains, that the veterans of tho grand army of Napilocn. weighed down by age and glory, were na»-n of whom few had passed their thirty-fifth year. It was a time of rash and short living, with an early age and no overtures of real youth —a time when we find Thackeray ridicul ing De Florae for holding claims on be ing still a young man at the age of thir ty-five. The average man of today car ries the spirit and power of youth into an age which a century ago was regard ed as bordering on the shady side of ex istence.” ROUMANIAN REVOLT, (Continued from Pago One.) Jewish farmers, but also those of Rou manian landed proprietors. It is un deniable that these sad occurrences are in part a result of the agitation now prevailent in Russia, especially in Bessaraba, which borders on Rou mania. "The Roumanian government is act ing promptly. It is taking energetic measures to restore order and it hopes that by active military intervention the rioting quickly will be suppressed. Im mediately thereafter the government will introduce a series of measures providing for the necessary Agrarian reforms.” PROMPT ACTION To Be Taken By France to Protect Foreigners In Morocco. Paris, March 23.—As a result of the cabinet meeting today it was decided to send French troops to occupy Oudia, a frontier town in Morocco, until the Moorish government gives full satis faction to France for the assassination of Dr. Mauchamp. The French de mands for reparation will be forward ed to Fez immediately. Paris, March 25.—The French press is clamoring lor energetic action in Mo rocco. A Germanophobe sentiment has Iron aroused by the intimation that German inspired the attack which re sulted in the assassination of Dr. Mau champ at Morocco City and this has been fanned by War Minister Pic-quart's transfer of General Bailloud from tile command of the Sixteenth Corps of the Army of the east for a speech which the general delivered on the occasion of the retirement of colonel, during which he referred to the inevitable com ing war with Germany when France would have an opportunity to win back Alsace and Lorraine. The Chauvinis tic papers accuse the w.ar minister and Premier Olemenceau of cowardice in disgracing a gallant officer. Foreign Minister Piehon, at an extra ordinary session of the cabinet today, recommended a policy of reprisals if necessary to secure from the Moroccan government satisfaction for the mur der of Dr. Mauchamp. The Temps says the steps contemplated hy the gov ernment involve not only a naval dem onstration, but direct coercion. The armored cruiser Jeanne D'Arc, and the cruiser Lalande which sailed from Toulon yesterday for Tangier, car ried field equipment for marines. The French foreign office has dis patched a note to the owers explaining the situation. The decision of the French govern ment to occupy Oudja means that troops will immediately cross the Algerian frontier from Tlomsen, where considerable forces of at arms are sta tioned. The decision was reached in order to compel a Moorish response to the repeated demands of France tor the repression of disorder and reparation for abuses of power, crimes and as saults, affecting French citizens resid ing in Morocco. The Moroccan govern ment has persistently refused to ex ecute the agreement concluded with France in 1901 and 1902 and has abso lutely ignored tilt- French governments representations on the subject. FULL INDEMNITY Will Be Demanded By France for Murder of Dr. Mauchamp. Paris, March 25.—The Moroccan sit uation, which has been forced into the background for a year past by acute international problems, has now been brought to the front by the assassina tion in Morocco City of Dr. Mauchamp, a French subject, and a lively debate is anticipated in the Chamber of Depu ties tomorrow. Members of the chamber from the Department Saone Et Loire, where Dr. Mauchamp lived, will interpellate the government, and one of them, M. Fer nand Dubief. Radical Socialist, is in possession of a number of letters from the doctor in which lie complains bit terly of his abandonment by the French authorities, giving instances of their slackness and inactivity. It is expected that extracts from these let ters will be read. Furthermore, the Socialists are liable to seize this op portunity to attack the government in retaliation for their recent defeat in the matter of the strike of the elec tricians of Paris. The ministry is fully alive to the importance of the situa tion and is ready to offer a full ex planation to the Chamber. The decision of the cabinet today to send French troops to occupy Oudja in Morocco was unanimous. The oc cupation of this point will be continued until full satisfaction lias been accord ed. The French demands include the punishment of the murderer of Dr. Mauchamp and indemnity for the fami ly of the victim, and the appropriation of a large sum for the foundation of a charitable institution in Morocco in memory of Dr. Mauchamp. Full instructions have been tele graphed to the military authorities in Algeria regarding the formation an 1 dispatch of a military column to oc cupy Oudja. CAPT. SHEPHERD OF ROCKPORT. Retired Mariner and Prominent Busi ness Man Is Dead, Roekport, lie., March 25.—Capt. Oliver P. Shepherd, a retired mariner and one of the pioneers in the lime in dustry in Knox county, died today at the age of 59 years. At the age of 18 years he commanded his first vessel.

Train No. 11. which goes east from Augusta, at 2.32 in the afternon, was brought almost to a standstill yester day us it reached the lower end of the station because of a small boy who ran out on the track in front of the loco motive, and had it not been for the watchfulness of the engineer a tragedy might have been enacted. The train was on time and was coming in at the usual rate of speed, and as the locomo tive passed the Winthrop street cross ing a boy ran out onto the track a short distance ahead of tlie train. The act was seen by few except the engi neer, but he set the emergency brake and tlie youngster escaped unharmed. The sudden stopping of the train caused a great deal of wonderment among the passengers, but few knew the cause. Judging from the lineup at the municipal court room Monday morning the police must have found business fairly good from Saturday night to Sunday night, for the number which answered to roll call was seven.

The lovers of basketball throughout the State are indulging in the usual end-of-the-season talk of a State league the coming year, and it seems to the Waterville friends of the sport that an organization of this sort would do much toward increasing the interest and the satisfaction to be derived from basketball games. Waterville in a way is a basketball center. In addition to Colby College and Coburn Classical Institute, which Institutions always have good teams on the floor, the boys of the Taconnet Club, across the river in Winslow, have made some notable records in past sea sons and bid fair to do the same again. This season basketball has taken a firm hold with the students of the Waterville High school, and the series jf spititcd init i class panics ha:; hml a very wholesome effect upon the ath letic life iif the school. Tilt; Winslow High school has entered upon this sport with good zeal, anil has made a very creditable showing indeed. From liar Harbor, wliero there if a flourishing Y. IT. C. A., comes a definite State league proposition, which hears upon its face the evidences of be ing well conceived and worth the at tention of basketball enthusiasts. The proposition is for two or three leagues, embracing the teams of va rious grades, with the college teams in one league, the tilting schools and academics in another, file town team athletic clubs, technical schools and others in a third. One league, at least, should he formed of High si hools itiiiI aeademic.es. A suitable membership might include Westbrook Seminary, Coburn, Hebron. Maine Central Institute, nicker Classi cal Institute. Har Harbor High, Guil ford High. Rockland High. Bangor High, Belfast High, Bath High, Mil town High, Dexter High, and other schools. A stipulation should be made that one team should play two games with every other team, and this might necessitate the division of the league into classes-, in case the membership were so large that the schedules of in dividual schools would he loo long. This, however, would be a mater of de tail wliidi could be the subject of later arrangement after the league had a preliminary organization. Ail “rubber" games should be played on a neutral floor, preferably Bangor or V Uerville. all participants should he bona fide students of the particular school they represented, a corps of neutral officials should be appointed, and a pennant should be rewarded for the championship of the league. A similar league for ill other clttlis xcept colleges would greatly bem lit the sport. In general the playing rules should lie similar to those for High schools and academics. A strong league could lie formed from such teams as I he Dover and Foxemft Athletic As sociation. Bangor. Rockland and Ro.’kport Y. M. I\ A.'s. the Taconnet i'lull of Winslow, the Somerset flub of Pittsfield. Bewiston. and others. At the close of the season a series of three games should be played with the cham pions o'f the High school Teague and the college league by the winning team. In this way the championship of the State, which is a mooted point under the present condition of affairs, would be a settled question. lust now, all that is lacking is some one to go ahead with the plan of or ganization. A PROFITABLE MEETING Held By Central Maine Theological Circle Monday At Waterville. The Central Maine Theological Cir cle held a very profitable meeting at the rooms of the Waterville Historical So ciety In the Public Library building at 10 o'clock Monday morning. Fourteen members of the circle were present. The meeting was presided over by the president. Rev. C. G. Mosher. "The Conflict Between the Church and State in France." was the subject of a paper by Rev. Edwin C. Wliitte miire, D. D.. pastor of the Waterville First Baptist church. Dr. Whittemore reviewed the rela tions of France with the Vatican from the time of the Concordat between the Pope and Napoleon Bonaparte and j summarized the prevailing sentiment of today. The practical topic was discussed by: Rev. J. R. Clark of Fairfield, who con-: sidered informally the matter of giving1 the invitation at revival meetings. A vote was passed whereby the circle will hold its future meetings in the li brary. BOARD OF TRADE Holds Its Annual Meeting at City Building. Officers Elected and Impor tant Matters Discussed. Location of Proposed Institution For Feeble Minded Considered. The annual meeting of the Water vino Board of Trade was held in the aldermen’s room at the City building Monday evening, and thanks to the ef forts of Secretary John K. Nelson in drumming up the members, there was a good attendance. In addition to the election of officers, several important matters came up for consideration, chief of these being the action towards the establishment in W it. rvilie of the proposed institution for the feeble minded, for which the present Legislature has made an ap propriation, but ttie location of which has not been determined. It is felt that the location of such an institution in I Vatervillo would be of benefit to this i locality, just as similar institutions are of benefit to the localities where they are established. Another matter was the taking of a census of the city this year. The een sits last yenr, taken at the instance of the Board of Trade, the city govern ment sharing tli expense with the board, was a success and it was pro posed this year to take the census of j the whole city together with the school I census. A committee was appointed to have j in charge the arrangements for the an j nual bainjuet of the board. _ The board was called to order at 7.10 i\ M. b President Harvey Li. Katon. The reports of the secretary and tr* usurer wi re read and accc|>ted. Kdward G. Crosliy was elected to inemberslii|i. President Katon s;iid th;it the prin eipiii matters considered by the board j during the past year were the annual banquet, the nsus of the city, freight rates. the (Hidden tourists, a federal po.doffiee building, a part of which had been attended to. the remainder in the hands of committees. fin motion of John K. Nelson, the following committee was appointed on nominations: F. J. Arnold, Charles flukey, H. K. Jiulkins, George F. Havies and Dr. D. G. Hunker. The com mittee retired to make up a list of of Hc-ers. President Katon laid the matter of a census before the board. President Katon said that it costs the the city about $100 a year to take the school census, and when the Board of Trade census of the whole city was tak en last year, the cost was $110. Presi dent Katon suggested that the taking of the whole census be done at one time, thereby saving expense. Questioned ;:s to what value the cen sus was to the Hoard of Trade, Presi dent Katon said that a census wan of value to citizens generally in showing the growth and rate of development of the ity. p. S. lleaid moved that a com mittee be appointed to have in charge th matter of taking a census, in con sultation with tlie city government. The committee on nomination re ported the following officers who were elected: President. JIarvey D. Eaton: first vice president, Charles J. flukey: second vice president. A. O. Bombard: third vice president. John X. Webber; treasurer. P. ft. Heald; secretary, John K. Nelson. On motion of Hon. Warren C. Phil brook a committee was later appointed to confer with the Governor and Coun cil relative to the establishment in Wa terviile of an institution for the feeble minded. Mayor Hunk* r said lie had been interested in the matter for sever al years, and he thought an institution for the feeble minded was the best move that had been made in the State for some time. The motion was carried. Dr. J. Frederick Hd 11 reported for the committee which entertained the Glid den touring party. The bills had been paid and the vouchers were ready to be audited. Mr. Wardwell moved that the vouchers be audited by the treas urer and that they be paid out of the treasury. Relative to the census. Superinten dent of Schools Dennis E. Bowman re ported that at the meeting of the board of education Monday night, a sub-com mittee had been appointed to confer with the Hoard of Trade rega*ding the taking of the census. Dr. J. J. Hill called up for considera tion the matter of a banquet. On motion of George F. Davies the Chair was authorized to appoint a com mittee on banquet. The date was left with the committee. The board ad journed at 8.15 P. M., the following committees being announced: 'On Location of State Institution For the Feeble Minded-William T. Haines. Edgar L. Jones, J. Frederick Hill, War ren C. Pliilbrook, Edward G. Crosby. On Census—Harvey D. Eaton. On banquet—J. Frederick Hill, S. E. Whitcomb, Ernest M. Horne, Frank Redington, G. Fred Perry. CITY GOVERNMENT To Hold Meeting Tomorrow Evening Interesting Developments Expected. The Waterville City Government will again hold the center of attention Tuesday evening, and it is believed that there will be some interesting develop ments before the meeting closes. A quiet laueh is going the rounds at the unintentional but none the less successful manner in which the crowd was gotten rid of at the last meeting, and the star act of the session was wit nessed by comparatively few persons. The meeting had dragged along with nothing but routine business up for consideration, when a hearing by tlie alderman on a private matter was an nounced. Tlie witnesses were ready and as there was no reason for delay the public was requested to withdraw. Thinking that the joint convention for tile election of minor officers would not be called, many who had intended to be present at the session of the con vention left the building and went home, and missed seeing the chief ol the lire department elected, and the city fathers “trounced” at the hands of the executive. If there should be a private hearing at the meeting Tues day evening, most of the citizens will •doubtless make it a poinL-to find out whether there is going to be anything going on afterwards or not. The officers remaining to be elected are clerk to the overseers of the poor, milk inspector, inspector of vinegar, city marshal, deputy marshal, police officers and truant officers. Whether an attempt will be made to elect all of the above at the meeting Tuesday evening is a matter of con jecture, and only the most foolhardy of political prophets are attempting to predict what the result will be. For clerk to the overseers of tlie poor, Frank Langlois is the Democratic candidate against J. P. Giroux, Repub lican. This officer is elected by the municipal officers, consisting of the mayor and alderman. On March 11, each candi date had four votes, the mayor voting and making a tie, against the protest of Aulerman Poulin of Ward 6. The mayor declared tlie oflice of clerk to tlie overseers of the poor vacant, and since that time the clerical work of the over seers has been attended to by Aider man Whitcomb of Ward 5. Tlie elect ion of city marshal and police has r.ot yet been brought up at either of the two meetings which have been held. The procedure is somewhat different in this ease, the mayor nominating and tlie aldermen confirming the nomina tion. FAIRFIELD.

Assertion by Corporal Who Served at Brownsvilie, Toi. Sold Ammunition and Defaced Numbers on Rifles. Washington, March 25.—That sol diers invariably were able to secure ex tra cartridges and sometimes had ex tra rifles as well, was asserted today by William Ryan, corporal in Co. K, 26th Infantry, in the Brownsville inves tigation before the Senate committee on military affairs. Ryan was at Brownsville prior to the coming of the negro soldiers of the 25th Infantry. He was serving as the artificer under the quartermaster sergeant, at whose or ders. he said, he sold 1000 rounds of gov ernment ammunition to a junk dealer in Brownsville. Under the same man’s orders lie said he defaced the numbers on six Krag-Jorgensen rifles which had been secured in the Philippines, with 14 others as surplus guns. The defacing was done and the guns held out at the time the order was is sued lor the surrender of all of the Krag type of rifles. He claimed that he did not know what had become of these guns, in reply to a number of questions he declaied that he did not consider that he had done wrong in aiding in the sale of government property. When the session adjourned for the day Thomas Taylor, a former member of Co. B. 25th Infantry, was on the stand. The expert examination of shells picked up in Brownsville is declared to show that his gun was used in firing 11 of these shells. Taylor denied that his gun had been fired since his company left for the Niobrara, a month prior to the shooting. WOMAN KILLS CATAMOUNT Fatally Wounds Animal as it Crouches Upon a Limb. Lock Haven. March 25.—Woolrich, a small village in the lower end of Clin ton county, boasts of a markswoman in Mrs. John F. Meyers. She heard the barking of dogs on the mountain side almost a mile from her home, and knowing that her husband was in that section started out with a rifle. After climbing up the side of the mountain she became aware that a large catamount was but a short dis tance from her. Walking to almost where the animal was crouched in a huge rook oak tree, on an overhanging limb, Mrs. Meyer saw that the animal was about to spring and at once fired, the ball breaking the neck and causing the catamount to fall from the limb dead. The husband came up im mediately after the shooting and meas ured the animal, which was three feet long and weighed 20 pounds.

For two hours the Lake, the latest submarine built by Simon Lake, remained sub merged in the sound, two miles off this harbor. Under the guidance of Cap tain George Evans the boat was maneuvered on the bottom and at va rious depths up to 27 feet, the greatest depth of the water.

The Stomach. My but peoples’ stomachs do cause a lot of trouble. I offered to wager some doctors in St. Paul, Minn., that one half of all sickness is caused by the stomach. After I assured them that my medi cine did noth ing but put the stomach in C. H. POWELL. shape and they had spent a day listening to what peo ple who called on me had to say. they had to agree with me. They heard people come in and tell me that for years they had been near the grave with Bright's disease, or lung trouble, or kidney complaint and all manner of diseases and that the New Discovery had cured them. Of course these people were mistaken, it was nothing but their stomachs. As a matter of fact when the stomach gives out most everything else is thrown out of order too. When a person feels tired and dull and despondent, is losing flesh and don't sleep well, has a poor memory, a bad taste in the mouth, a coated longue, and other troubles he's liable to believe a lot of things are the mat ter with him. Xine chances to one t's liis stomach. I've seen Cooper’s S'ew Discovery bring back health to too many people in just this shape to believe anything else. Here's a letter tbout it: 'T suffered for a long time without knowing just what was the matter with me. I seldom felt like eating. I lost g: atly in weight. My digestion was extremely poor and when I did ■at 1 invariably suffered afterward. I was constipated and frequently suf fered from nerve racking, violent headaches.
