Calls For Boycott of American and Continental. Will Ask Farmers to Refuse to Buy All Boycotted Goods. Norfolk, Va., Nov. 19.—'The American Federation of Labor today rejected an amendment to its bylaws proposing that in the future no arbitration upon a. Jurisdictional dispute between two or more national or international unions shall be considered by the Federation or b.v the executive council between ■sessions, unless all parties in interest, bv convention, referendum or in some ntner proper Way agree before 111. question is taken up to be bound by the decision given. The view was tak en after Ions diseussion in whieh it was held that to adopt this new propo sition would work to the advantage of the stronger body as against the weak er organization in all disputes. The proposition required a two-thirds vote to pass. The Federation adopted caustic reso lutions against the American and Con tinental Tobacco C'os. and calling for the boycott of drug stores all over the country having certain kinds of cigar stands whieh were ordered on the “We don't patronize” list. The executive council was given au jymrlty to remove from the “We don't _ «rfptronize” list the names of concerns Srnl goods thereon where international ffitilons that asked this are not found td.be property pushing the boycotts. TJJe treasurer was directed to de posit In interest bear ing certificates all Amcifi&n Federation of Labor funds over ijptJOO. 'The.invention ratified the appoint ment per cent, the duties oil paper, potatoes, milk :tune of tiiese ipiestions upon which no official information lias yet been given, is wheth r the new 1-year cer tificates will lie available for bank re serves. It is prescribed hy Section rd'.'l of tie Revised Statutes that blinking reserves shall be "in lawfu money of t he 'nited States.” This can mean only gold, and silver coin certificate notes. The law does not even permit bank notes, which circu late as currency, to he counted as re serves, although small amounts are occasionally included in the same pack ages with lawful money. As a larg portion nt national hanks an now being permitted to do husi- i ness with tin ir reserves considerably reduced below the legal limit. the question whether the proposed treas ury certificates shall he counted as re serves or investments practically only a matter of bookkeeping. The law is framed. Imwt vcr. to require actual money to be held ill reserve and those familiar with the currency systems of nthei solve lit countries declare that it would be entirely contrary to sound policy to count an interest bearing certificate of debt .as the equivalent of money tinder normal conditions. A pol'cy of reserve is being pursued l,> Comptroller Itidgley apparently for the purpose of .avoiding any unfavor able impressions among hankers or misunderstanding by Hie public pend ing the opening of bids for lhe new se curities. If I lie certificates are redeem ed at the end of one year .according to their terms, it is believed at the treas ury that there will lie no difficulty in withdrawing money from the hanks for the purpose at that time, because mon ey usually accumulates rapidly in tile banks after the first Hurry id' a crisis has passed and as general husim ss and speculation becomes curtailed. The possibility is attracting some at tention that the issue of the 1-year certificates will be criticized in Con gress" cin much the same manner as the sale of Isolds to the Morgan syn dicate to protect the gold reserves in ISA”.. The criticism of President Cleve land's measures in lv.ir. went so far that a committee was appointed to in vestigate tlie contract with J. P. Mor gan 8- Co. A considerable part of the criticism at that time was directed against the exclusive nature of the contract and this criticism will not he against tiie pn ?'*ni offer of securities to the pub lic unless somethin# occurs in making the awards which may afford an op portunity t tin* criticism of the ad mit.ist :\ti ion.

She detailed her association in the capacity of amanuensis with tin- late T. I truce, who is said to have been the deceased fifth Duke of Portland. According to Miss Kotiinson, Phurl-’s Dickens informed her in IsTn tlivt T. P I truce was the Duke of Portland, and when she questioned Mr. I truce tut the subject tile latter was much an noyed.

THE WATERWAYS

Of Atlantic Coast to Be Conference at Philadelphia— 500 Delegates Present. Inland Water Way From Boston to Carolinas Proposed. Philadelphia. Nov. 19.-The Atlantic r>-e». Waterways Conference, ha\m» for its object the Improvement of in land waterways along the Atlantic o.»a“t and re particularly the rui tIterance of a project for a continuous inland uater route from the Carolinas to Poston, began here today. Five hun dred representatives, coming from nearly ail the Atlantic states from Maine to Florida, were in attendance. These acre appointed either by the government of their respective states or by commercial bodies. Among those present were United States Senator Net.lands of Nevada, who is vice presi dent of the United States Inland Wat erways Commission; Senator Dupont of t Dele.vare; Judge fieorge Cray of the United States circuit court and con-I gr-ssm-ti from the various states in- I t' -rested. Kerb state delegation spoke for its par ticular section and all approved the gen eral scheme of the coastal waterway. The principal speaker was Senator Now lands. who gave a general outline of the work of the National Waterways commit :i ml promised that the waterways a Ions? the Atlantic- coast would ire given kiiIv attention bv that body. Dui’inff the proceedings Senator Nf*wl:m»ls an nounced that he was opposed to private ownership of canals that form n part of any inland water system. All inland wat ♦•r systems, lie said, should he controlled by the federal government. He was not opposed to private capital building1 ca nals, but the government should be in a position to take them over at a fair compensation in case that it wanted them in any waterway scheme. A number of speeches were listened to at both the morning and afternoon sessions. The general trend of those at the af ternon session was the great need of the development of the waterways not only along the Atlantic toast, hut through out the country. None of the speakers antagonized the railroads, hut those who touched upon railroad opposition said the volume of freight traffic in the country was great enough to give trie railroads a profitable income after the waterways received their share of the traffic. Before adjournment for the day sever al committees were appointed, among them being one which probably will draft a set of resolutions asking Congress to make surveys and otherwise give impetus to the movement.

She was painfully vexed at a contrary clasp mi the glove of one hand: her iu ubitit> to secure a seat did not temper her feelings in the least and while sir sonant to fasten the gloves an I retain a firm hold an the car strap the motor man increased the speed. The nickel slipped from its position between the firm white teeth and found lodgement in Miss Murray's throat. The dainty ehateline purse did not hold another nickel w ith whieli to pay for her ride and aside from this deatii stared the woman in the face. She gasped and lurched forward on several other passengers. l’assengers sitting near her instantly divined what had happened and immediately had the girl taken to tlio olliee of Ur David Hootie. at ltidge Avenue and Calumet Street. After i few minutes' work the physi cian had extracted the carfare and Miss Murray had sntliciently recovered from her experience to continue tier journey home. REAL D. A. R. DEAD.

Defect in Law May Prevent Execution of Kentucky Murderer. Louisville, Kb, Nov. 19.—Provided the fourt of Appeals sustains the decision nf the lower court, which gave an in junction against Sheriff Scott Hullitt. prohibiting him from carrying out the sentence of execution upon Clarence Sturgeon, a condemned murderer, will linil himself suspended between liberty and death, with no means provided to grant him cither. In tin opinion of William A. Perry, who raised the question. Sturgeon will remain in prison, with the law unable to free him from it. The penal code of the State provides only one nit thud of fixing the date of execution—that it shall he done by the governor. If, then, it is discovered that has no authority to do such it tiling, on the ground that it is a judicial function, there will be no one provided l,y law to authorize the execution. Ii lias been suggested that in that Si urgeon could lie freed liv habeas corpus proceedings, I,at even his attor ney concedes that this would hardly prove effective, inasmuch as Sturgeon was duly tried and sentenced.

The second of the scries of meetings at which well-known ministers of the denomination are giving short sermons on topics of vita! interest was held last evening at the I'nitarian church. The speaker of the evening was the Itov. Thomas Van Ness, minister of the Second Church in Itoston. His subject was "Reliefs That Are Worth While.” His text was "I Delight in Thy Law Beloved. Now Are We the Sons of Hod.” "In beginning his talk, he referred to the strange abnormal events mentioned in early Biblical history, stating that one in reading these would not always sense the order and regularity of all things. He declared that there was no chance nor caprice in any part of the universe. If this were so of the physi cal side of the universe. It must neces sarily follow that law and order must rule the spiritual world. Man was pun ished, not for his sins but by his sins; not in tin outward temporal wav. hut in an inward, permanent way. Ho em phasised the fact that Cod was to be depended upon. Further, that as wo are sharr rs in the Kternat Kingdom, wo are joint fashioners with (tod in tho moulding of this world. We have, said lie. not figuratively, but actually, direct relation with God. This truth we are only realizing slowly on the spiritual side. He then took up the subject of the reason for all the trials, temptations, struggles and disappointments of this life. He declared that it is hut mockery to believe that the object of life is to attain happiness, to achieve, to obtain results. The real object of life is train ing or growth in spiritual power. In moments of discouragement he declared that it was wortli while to believe that growth day by day is the object of our life. Ti believe that we can conquer sin, temptation, sickness and discour agement. “He that overcometli, he shall be my second I shall be-hip God and he shall inherit aU things." Asking to whom we should turn In seeking the laws of life, he answered to him who said, "1 eame that ye might have life, that ye might have it more abundantly.” He stated that the Reati i tales may seem wrong out continued "believe me, they will give you peace and power.” He closed with a strong appeal to tiie audience to make them selves worthy of the great joy which (la y could obtain by obedience to these laws. Chester A. Walker has resigned Ills position as foreman of the job depart ment of the Central Maine Publishing n., after a service of one and one-half tears.

For Nei vous; Over-worked and “Run Down” Women Women in an exhausted, nervous state, due to over-work, continuous social functions or a general “run down’’ condition of health, often wonder why tonics and emulsions fail to benefit them. The reason is plain. Tonics and emulsions are good in their place, but they cannot build up the body until the nerves have been toned and quieted. There’s only one remedy that can restore health to women in this ex hausted, nervous condition, because it acts directly upon the nerves.

r Americanitis Elixir is the only remedy of its kind in existence. As its name implies, it's a specific for the pec'ulias exhausted nervous conditions resulting from the continuous rush and Tension under which Americans live. This remedy fills an important gap in the line of medicines. Rcxall Americanitis supplies to the body just those elements which Nature cannot supply in sufficient quantities to meet the unnatural drain upon the nervous system. Phosphorus in soluble form is the basis of this splendid nerve food. Thousands of women have been saved from nervous prostration by the prompt use of Rexall Americanitis. To all conditions of nervous derange^ ment, exhaustion and debility it brings permanent relief, r The Story of D EX means v ‘‘king,” and the combination makes Re?;all king of alL” We have proven time and time again that Rexall Reme dies are kings above all others. For more than two years an expeit travelled all over the world in search of extraordinary remedies. When ever he heard of a wonderful cure of any nature he did not rest until he per sonally could see the effect of the prescription used. Where he found the remedy perfect he purchased the pre scription but it was never used as a Rex all remedy until the properties had been thoroughly anal yzed by the chem ists and physicians of the United Drug Company. 1 75 Cents Per Bottle

THE DAILY MARKET REPORTS NEW YORK STOCK MARKET. features of the Day’s Dealing* in All The Leading Stocks. New York. Nov. 10.—Thor*' was re newal of liquidation in the stock market today of a character which carried a formidable iniluoncc on speculative sen timent. The t fleet for good of the na tional government's Plan of financial relief seemed to have passed away com pletely. this result being an extension of vest, ri'ay's tendency when the pro press of the day's dealings witnessed a j stend> waning of the effect of that fac- j tor. Prices today pot back generally to below the closing level of last week and in not a few instances to the lowest prices of the year. The pn ssure to liquidate was urgent in some quarters and was conducted in a way to leave little doubt of the necessities of the sellers. It first devel oped in portentous form in the Chicago, Hock Island and Pacific Railway col lateral 4's. This is the operating com pany. all of whose stock is owned by th’ Rock Island Co., and the old Chi cago, Rock Island and Pacific Railway stock, which forms the collateral se curity. The collateral five of the same company were issued in part payment for the St. Louis ft Kan Francisco com mon stock. The weakness in this group of secur ities gave direction to the many con jectures as to the source of liquidation. The later heavy liquidation in 1'nited States Kteol securities, including the sinking fund bonds, was used as con firmation of some of thes'e conjectures owing to large common interest known to he held in the two groups of prop erties. While the identity of the sellers was thus but vaguely outlined, the vol ume and the urgency of the selling gave it sufficient importance without the ad ditional inferences drawn from its per sonal bearings. The selling of St. Paul. Union Pacific and Now York 'Central was supposed to he connected in some way. although indications pointed to a different source for the selling from that conjectured in the other group. Tile weakness of these stocks was the conspicuous feature of the day’s mar ket and it was its sympathetic effect, more than anything else that gave the tone to the rest of the market. The confusion of mind revealed by flic dis cussion of the plan to issue United .States treasury one year certificates to the amount of $100,000,000 detracted from the good effect of the project. Reports of further large curtailment of iron output was an influence cn the market. The decline in prices was con tinued practically without interruption to the closing. Bonds were weak. Total sales, par '•alue $4,844,000. United States 2’s de clined one-half and 3's one-fourth and the 4's 1 per cent, on call. New York Money Market. New Yolk. Nov. 19.

The receipts of wool for this week were 10,001 bales dhmestii and GUI bales for eign. attains' 3,02e bales domestic and K.6W bales loreign for the same time last year Remarks:—1 he past week lias beer, a very quiet one in tin local wool market. As bps been the ease for the past two or three weeks, the stringency in money lifts been responsible for the dullness. Most of tie manufacturers have enough orders to keep their mills busy, but in the woolen trade where payments be gin with the delivery of the goods, when money js so |lar(] to obtain, tho distributors are not urgent about the deli very of their orders; consequently some mills have shut down. Tht big consumers: of wool have so well provided for their needs for the next few months that they are not very much Interested in the market and the needs of tho smaller concerns are not so great or so urgent that they are compelled to buy much raw material. A readjustment of prices has brought a somewhat lower range, but the change does not necessarily mean that holders are weakening. The best clips have passed out of the control of dealers, and the reduction hi the asking nriees merely represents the putting of ttie stock that remains at its proper value.

The work this year has been carried on in three counties, Oxford, Hancock ;md Penobscot, and will probably close for the year about the middle of December, after a very successful sea son, good progress having been made and satisfactory results secured in a general way, although of course a. de tailed statement cannot be made until sometime later.

Twitched of Auburn, formerly of Augusta, is in the city for a few days on matters of business and lias met many of his old friends. Dr. Twitched came to Augusta after hav ing made a trip with E. S. Gifford of Boston who recently purchased the Elmwood stock farm at Lewiston Junction, of which Dr. Twitched has been manager for several years past, and whose friends will be interested to learn that he will still continue in the same capacity under the new owner ship. The trip was made for the pur pose of buying stock, and on Saturday they bought a herd of 21 grade Holsteins from the well-known Bailey herd. A visit was also made to the farm of Pike Bros, at Lubec where a purchase was made of a thoroughbred bud that was bred by the Fields Bros, of Montello, Mass. At the C. L. Jones farm at Corinna they selected 11 registered Holstein cows with records ranging from 10,000 to 14,000 pounds in ten months, which is probably one of the best producing herds in New England. The buildings at Elmwood are being remodeled and the barns changed over to accommodate more cows, and it is Mr. Gifford's intention to increase the herd to 100. Dr. Twitched is also picking up a number of registered Chester sows, and it is his purpose to bring to market yearly at least 200 pigs. He states that Mr. Gifford will soon go to France for the purpose of securing a Percheron stallion for the use of the farmers in the central section of the State, and i will buy as good a one as can be found in Perche or Normandy.

Decision In Favor of the American Ice Go. In Its Case Against Pillston and Farmingdale. Commissioners Say Property Was Assessed Too High. Hon. Charles F. Johnson of Water viil. has made liis report upon the facts in the four eases of the Ameri can Tee Co., plaintiff against the town of Pittston, two cases, and the town of Farmingdale, two cases. All of the actions were claims of the plaintiff that fur the years 1903-1904 they had been over assessed by the town assessors of the two towns. The eases were filed at the October term of the supreme court 1905. By agreement of counsel all of the eases tvere to be left to the decision of a commissioner to lie ap pointed by the court. Ohas. F. John son was appointed by Justice Emery. At the time the- cases aroused much interest. The first ease deals with alleged over taxation of the company’s personal property in Pittston for the year 1903. Commissioner Johnson states that he held hearings at Augusta, heard the evidence and arguments. The com missioner finds that there was no per sonal property at the John Hancock, Week’s or Goodwin’s Point plants, the value of the boiler and engine, where, there wore any at these plants, being included in the value of the real estate found by him; that at the Smithtown, the Ledges, the Independent and Nahumkeag there were tools, but only one witness testified as to their value; that there was testimony as to the cost of cutting ice on the Kennebec river being 25 cents per ton, which would make the total value of the ice in the several plants far exceed the value placed by the assessors upon the per sonal property at each of them; that 25 cents per ton is the value of the lee stored, or $1109 the value of all ice stored at the Smithtown houses April 1, 1904 and $10,483.25 the value of all ice stored at the independent houses on the same date; that the schedule of valuations is as follows; ti 13 $5,000 nothing $1,000 1.000 10.

The minister was a stranger to the gravemaker, and dis cussed with him the doctrines of the neighboring clergy. As one after another was mentioned, the sexton wagged his head gloomily, and said, "He’s no sound.” At last the minis ter—who was a long-winded and rather empty preacher—mentioned his own name, and inquired: “Mr. now, isn't he sound?" “Oo, aye," said the sexton, with a twinkle in his eye. “He’s a' sound.” A fox killed fifty-nine fowls in Pointon Fen, Lincolnshire, England, in two nights.

Rescript by Spear, ,J. This is an action of assumpsit brought by the plaintiff to recover against tli° estate of Samuel Haines, late of Saco, county of York, the sum of $13,721) upon :m account annexed for services performed, ami also to recover $20,000 upon a special promise upon the part of the decedent in his lifetime to pay said sum to plaintiff. The alleged contract for the payment of the latter named sum was verbal as will appear from the testimony. The facts as claimed hv the plaintiff noon which she seeks to recover, are first: that she engaged in the employ ment of the decedent from October 1. 1SS!I, to February 22, 1H03, as set out in her claim, as tin ordinary servant for tlie agreed price of $20 per week: sec ond. that Samuel Haines in his life time, and for many years prior to his death was alllieted with a loathsome and highly contagious disease, so noxious in its character that it was ftuugiit with danger to his attendant, and required unusual and special care: third, taat later after the plaintiff had discovered the nature of the disease witli which the decedent was afflicted and had expressed her intention, of at oner declining to give him further care and attention and of leaving the house, lie expressly agreed in consideration that she would remain and continue her services, to pay her in addition to the wages before alleged to have been agreed upon, the additional sum of $20,000 and the house. Having carefully examined the testi mony and the briefs of counsel, we are of opinion that no useful purpose can be served in giving an extended analy sis of the evidence upon which our conclusion may lie based; besides, such an analysis, involving pure questions of fact, would extend far beyond the spac“ allotted to the ordinary opinion. We shall therefore examine the testi mony only so far as is necessary to ex plain tile conclusions at which we ar rive. Without further discussion, tile court are opinion that tlie verdict of the jury sustaining the affirmative of the first proposition may be permitted to stand, although tin- decision is aecom panied with much doubt. The evi dence is plenary that the plaintiff was a servant in the employ of the decedent during the period for which she seeks to recover, but that she should permit her wages to r< main unpaid to the al I legcd amount of $13,960, puts a heavy strain upon the most optimistic credulity. As to the second and third proposi tions, we arc- clearly convinced that the folding of the jury should be set aside. While upon these issues there is a con flict of testimony, yet, in view of the natiire of the case, the fact of a. con i lhet is not decisive. The phrase ‘•bur den of proof,” like the phrase “ordl nary care,” is a relative term and must i be considered, not only in tlie light of the conllict of the evidence, but also with reference to the subject matter to which the burden of proof relates. With respect to ordinary merchandise aeec unts and payments thereof, and of cases involving simple issue s of fact, the rule is well established that where a substantial conllict of testimony ap pears. the court will disturb the verdict of tin- jury. There is another class of cases, how i ever, in which the courts hold that the burden cf proof must rise above the mere conllict of testimony and become clear, convincing and conclusive, to sustain a verdict. The second and third propositions upon which the plaintiff seeks to re cover $20,000 from the estate of the de cedent, clearly falls within this class ol cases. It is therefore the opinion of the court that the plaintiff has failed to sustain her alleged contract for $20,000 and is entitled to judgment for $0200.17 the amount found by the jury in payment for the time she was un questionably a servant of the de cedent. We assume that $20,000 of the verdict was upon the alleged contract as the entice amount or nothing was the only issue umm this phase of the case. Our conclusion upon the facts makes I it unnecessary to discuss the excep- tions. Motion sustained unless tlio plaintiff dies a remittitur for all of the verdict abovi $6206.17, within thirty days from the date of filing this rescript. WALES GRANGE.
