VOL.XLI. AUGUSTA, MAINE. THURSDAY MORNING APRIL 14,1910 TWELVE FAGES. NO. 86 FOUND GUILTY. Jory Decides Mrs. Newbert Poisoned Her Husband. Stale Prison to Which She Goes in Sight of Home. Trial of “Dr.” Fred James Set Forward to September. Rockland, Me., April Ki.—Guilty of tiie murder of lmr invalid husband, Fremont Newbert, who died Nov. 15 from the effects of strychnine poison ing, according to medical testimony, was the verdict found by the jury in the supreme court late today against Mr°. Sadie f. Newport, the middle aged Thomaston woman, who for 15 years had been his sole support. Tlds decision was reached at 4.15 P. M after the jury had deliberated 4Vi hours Mrs. Newport made no demon stration whatever, although the verdict seemed to lie a surprise to many of those who have followed closely the three-days trial and expected a disa greement or manslaughter verdict. Associate Justice Albert M. Spear in charging the Jury s[oke in brief as fol lows: The ease presents two issues. Did Sadie Newbert poison her husband or was poison self-administered? One of ttie crucial iptestions was as to the mo tive. Were her illations to James Hokes snttlcier.t to actuate the killing of her husband? The jury will consider whether the words of affection spoken by the accused at her husband's death bed ue of his son. It was while Chief Justice Beard was reading a dissenting opinion in th" case of Col. Cooper, that Governor Maleom It. Patterson pardoned the de fendant declaring in the document: "In my opinion neither of the de fendants is guilty, and they have not had a fair and impartial trial, but were convicted contrary to the lav. and evi dence." Col. Cooper was. still it the eapltol when the pardon was entered in the secretary of stale's ollice. Me was at once surrounded by a crowd of friends, seeking to congratulate hint. The re versal in Ids son's ease seemed to please him to the exclusion of his own freedom. 1 wanted Robin's vindication more than l wanted a pardon,” was his re mark when told of the governor’s ac tion. Leaving the crowd he entered a carriage, and. accompanied liy .Mar shal Robert .Marshall, was driven to the county jail, where formalities rel ative to the pardon were gone through with. Then he was released. Robin Cooper if under a $25,000 bond. Col. Cooper is the close personal and political triend of Gov. Patterson, who is the leader of the anti-prohibition force in Tennessee. Carmack was the chief of the Prohibition movement. Patterson was an important witness for .the defence at the trial of the Coopers for the killing of Carmack. The supreme court room was packed today when the various opinions in Hit cases were tend. Much interest was manifested by many persons who thought that the decision of the su preme court at this time might have some effect on the coining state judi ciary elections. The reversal in the case of Unbin Cooper was based on assignment of er ror in the trial, the judges failing to charge separately as to Robin Cooper's theory of self'-defence, coupling the de f"nw of the two defendants, excluding testimony by dev. Patterson as to talks with Robin Cooper and advice given him as to Col. Cooper before the tragedy, and the admission of cross exainiration of Robin Cooper as to in tent of certain state witnesses in tes tifying as to certain incidents. I A JURY TRIAL In Russell Case Will Be Asked by Claimant. Dakota Dan’s Supporters Wish To Make Dim Mayor. Another Demonstration at the Rus sell Estate in Melrose. Boston, April 13.—There were a num ber oi interesting echoes of the Bussell will case about this city today, includ ing the framing of an appeal to the Massachusetts supreme court and an invitation to the defeated Dickinson claimant to become a registered voter in Melrose and perhaps become a can didate for mayor next December. State Senator I.. A. Simpson, who withstood the brunt of the battle for the claimant in the seven months fight, has 1 is appeal nearly ready and experts to tile it within the next IS hours. He will ask for a jury trial. Mr. Simpson will then take a long rest, visiting Washington on his way hack to Dickinson. X I A delegation of ard> nt Melrose sup porters of "Dakota Dan." as the claim ant is now generally known, waited upon hint at his hotel here today with an invitation to become a. resident of Melrose that they might support him for mayor, inti the claimant was too tired to receive them. The lawyers representing the Fresno fruit picker are gathering up material j for another Bussell trial iu the sum. .court, but it is expected that this case will not be heard for many months. The outburst at Melrose last veil ing limed at some of tlmse prominent in support of the will side ol' the case was not repeated today. although hi a n v of the leaders were still out sooken in their denunciation of what they claim was an unjust decision by j Judge Lawton. With the evening, however, came a see ond edition of last night's demonstration in Melrose. A crow! estimated at after parading through several streets paused in front of the Bussell estate and j there burned two elilgies. Although there j was much cheering or hissing as the 1 names of several persons prominent i-i the ease were shouted, there was litt. disorder, save for a spasmodic fusila.h of stones in which two policemen tin bruised. A large force of officers under the personal charge of Mayor E. If. j Moore of Melrose kept the situation well in hand. Another mob of .'KWO paraded up and down Main street in the business i part of the city, cheering every mention j of tlie defeated claimant and ins counsel and hissing the respondents. A sensation was caused in the palace of justice at Paris. Wednesday, when an Anarchist, in revenge, fired lour shots at M. Flory. the president of the court which found the man guilty a year ago. M. Flory was not hit by the bullets and the Anarchist was arrested. TAFT IS PLEASED At Progress Made Against The Sugar Trust. Renton Laughs al Shi!) Sub sidy Libel indictment. Antis Mad Because President Is to Address Suffragists. Washington. April 13.—A conference at tit.- While House late today showed to lit® evident satisfaction of Presi dent Taft that sufficiently rapid head way is being made in the prosecutions of tlie so-called “Sugar Trust" for cus toms frauds and that there is little likelihood >»f a congressional investi gati >n tit present. It is presumed at any rate that the administration's intluence will be used against an inquiry and without the consent of the President there is prae tically no way in which Congress can get the information whieli is being used by the department of justice in actions which are pending and in fur ther suits which it is believed will be entered into shottly upon an extensive scale. For several days past rumors of a congressional investigation of the "Su gar Trust" have prevailed in Wash ington. lb nresentative Fitzgerald of Now York recently introduced a reso lution asking the President whether or not it would be expedient for Con gress to have the government's infor mation at this time. The request was referred to the committee on expendi ture in the treasury department, of which Hep Hill ol Connecticut is chairman. Mr. Hill was at the White House early today and after a talk with tin the President said that lie deemed it very inexpedient for Congress to have tiie government's information and lie thought the President would assume the same attitude. Meantime. Henry L Stimpson in charge of the prosecution at New York, and Collector Loeb of New York had arrived in Washington. Mr. I-oeb spent the morning at the treasury depart ment and Mr. Stimpson went directly to ti e department of justice. IN THE SENATE. Railroad Bill Consideration, Section by Section. Continues. Washington, April 13.—The Senate today resumed consideration of the railroad bill section by section giving attention to amendments offered by Chairman Elkins of the Interstate Commerce Commission. The only amendment adopted was one permit ting the inclusion of complainants in suits before the proposed court or commerce growing out of orders of the Interstate Commerce Commission.

Temperance Workers Press This Acl With Success. Law Forbids Sale of Bottled Goods In Barrooms. i _ Boston, April 13-—The temperance advocates ul ilie state carried their successes in the upper branch of the Legislature into the lower branch to day, where the so-called bar and bot tle bill was passed to be engrossed by a voice vote, all amendments being killed by wide margins. The bill must now be enacted in both branches be fore it readies the Governor. The tempernnee workers concentrat ed their eftorts this year on a measure that divorced the first and fourth class liquor licenses, forbidding the sale of bottle goods by those who sell liquor to he drunk on the premises. AM other measures were discarded, and the light for the bar and bottle bill lias been pressed successfully in both branches. In the House today, several amend ments, seeking to postpone the new law until after May 1 were rejected, and if the measure becomes a law, the entire license system in the cities and towns that have voted in favor of liquor selling, will have to he revised. The liquor interests claim that it will mean a considerable decrease in tile 1 icons<- revenue. It is expected that a further effort will he made to kill the bill either in the Somite or House by a motion to strike out the enacting clause. THE GREATEST EXPLORER! Governor Fernald Gives Peary High Praise at Lewiston. Lewiston. Me.. April 13.—Commander Peary was introduced at the Empire theatre this evening by Governor Fer nald, who said: “Four centuries of the most marvelous progress in the world have elapsed since Columbus set forth from Genoa to discover the Western world. From that time to this it has been tic ambition and desire of every nation to search for that point known as tiie North pole. England, France, Spain and other nations have sent expe ditions, and unless they were lost in that frozen North they had all returned de feated and discouraged, and it remained for an American, a Maine born boy, edu cated in the Maine schools and at Bow-: doin College, to plant the Stars and Stripes on the apex of tlie earth. On Sept. 0, 1309. lie sent from the North the message to his wife, 'Have made good at last. I have the pole. All well I’eary.’ He referred to Peary's return to Port land last fall and to the fact that it was his privilege to be the first to make pub lic announcement of belief in the ac complishment of Peary’s task and pre sented him a? the “greatest explorer and discoverer of modern times."

Back Draft Catches Them as They Fight Fierce Fire in New Haven Workshop And They Are Trapped by the Metal Doors and Windows. New Haven. Conn., April 13.—Trap ped by metal doors and barred win dows, six firemen, who were lighting flames in a workshop, were caught by a back draft and burned to death dur ing the partial destruction of the New Haven county Jail today. Three of their comrades were saved through the heroism of other firemen who were outside. Tlie bodies of the six men were found late today after the debris had cooled. Many other firemen were fearfully burned but remained at work. The dead are: Captain C. L. Chap man, of Truck 1: Lieutenant Wni. J. Doherty, of Truck 1: Ladderman John Buckley, of Truck 1: Hosemen James T. Cullen, James Mortell and Thomas J. McGrath of Engine No. 1. The seriously hurt: Laddermen A. E. Wilcox and Thomas J. Vaugh of Truck No. l; Hosemen John Hussey and Captain Charles H. O'Neill, En gine No. d; and Cornelius Shitgrue, ladderman, Truck No. l. Six men from Truck No. l were fighting way through the cell room of the jail into the workshop when an explosion of a gasoline tank caused a back draft and slammed behind them the iron doors separating the two buildings. Three of the men were hem med in a corner and burned to death, while the other three made their way to a barred window, to which they clung with streams of water playing on them from the outside. Soon after reaching the window the roof fell in and ladders were put up from the outside and down the in side and the men were taken out. The other dead firemen were caught by the same back draft as they were working at the other end of the building and were carried down by the roof when it fell in. Shugrue, who was found lying at the foot of the wall of the workshop, told I how Doherty. Cullen and Mortell met their death. When they found them- selves hemmed in by the closing of the doors they made for the cellar in search of air. The flames .already licking their clothing, they reached the cellar and searched for a place to get out. but there was none. "It's tip to the roof. boys,” said one of the men, and the four crawled up the stairs again. By this time the building was a mass of flames. Shugrue was the first to reach the roof and, holding*' his head in his coat, reached down to Lieut. Doherty to pull him up to the roof He got hold of the lieutenant’s wrist, but the others, too exhausted by their efforts to reach the upper stories, were unable to help and Shugrue held on as long as he could and then let go. Doherty dropping into the flames. The other two he could not see. Shugrue crawled to the edge of the roof and jumped, landing at the foot of the building, where ho was found two hours later. Vaughan, who was caught in the building, was rescued by James Cronogue, who crawled into the build ing and put his helmet over Vaughan’s face and then pulled him out. The lire was discovered by a prisoner and the 175 men in the workshop were sent to their cells When it was seen tin t chore was danger «»f ii,o fire spread ing to the main building the 246 mole and 42 female inmates were taken to the police* stations and the Foot Huard armory I’ndcr autboritx of Governor We*-k three companies c.f the 2d flog..

Absoluts Proof of Falsify Of Ono of His Yarns. Summit oi Ml. McKinley Found To Be Inaccessible. And Utterly Unlike That Pictured In Dr. Cook’s Book. Fairbanks, Alaska, April 13—The Fairbanks Mount McKinley expedition that reached the summit of the peak started to follow the route Dr. Cook said ne took, but was obliged to aban don it as it is impassable. Thomas Lloyd, the leader, declared today no traces of Cook's camps were found. Lloyd placed his crude notes of thb journey in the hands of a committee of the Order of Pioneers of Alaska, who will arrange for publication. The party took photographs of the summit and of points along the trail. They al so established the trail so well that It can he followed by other parties next summer. Aneroid measurements taken by the men places the height of the mountain at 20,500 feet. The men were in the party that left Fairbanks with dog teams in Decem ber. it was the theory of the leaders that the ascent would be less danger ous in the early spring than later when the snow began to melt. This theory was confirmed by the experience of the expedition. The expedition, on reaching the base of the mountain went into camp, wait ed fqr better weather and planned the ascent. All were familiar with the great mountain. None of the men has scientific education and they took no .special apparatus except a camera and a barometer. They were equipped for prosnecting and traveled as light ns possible and with the food supply of on Alaskin miner. When the ascent was begun the first camp was made at tlte line of the wil lows. the second at 2,600 feet, the third at 10,000; the fourtli at 16,000 feet. From this camp the dash to the top wu made. Four dogs went to the third camp and one to the fourth. Snow shoes were used most of the way and much time was comsumed in carrying sulilies to tiie fourth camp, travel over the steep ice compelling light loads and several trips. In several places crevasses were crossed on bridges of poles brought from the timbered slopes below. The party did not set out to disprove Dr. Cook's storv, but to climb the moun tain. II found the summit utterly un like that pictured in Cook's books. On the, rook peak it left an Americun flag, 6x12 feet, attached to the 14-foot staff buttressed in rock. The flag wns visi ble for a long distance on the north side of the mountain. The view from the summit was obscured by clouds at lower levels. The building of the monument about the flagstaff was ditticult, because of the raritled atmosphere. The anow was generally firm and the crevasses that were filled with snow were easy to cross, except In a few ih stan'oo.s. (|,uuer in the season 'aval anches and treacherous rrevasses would have impeded progress. The explorers discovered a magni ficent unnamed peak 16,000 feet high and a new pass through the mountain range which shortens the distance to the coast 75 miies. The pass is flanked by ma jestic. perpendicular walla. Daniel Patterson, W. R. Taylor and ('has. McGonniglc remained at Kallshna and only Lloyd name to Fairbanks. The Pioneers committee took steps to verify Lloyd's story before stamping It as gen nine Even now the committee Is disin clined to surrender Lloyd’s notes, al though satisfied that they amply prove the story. 1 be return of Lloyd from the mountain in nine dav* was due to the excellence of the trail made by the par ly while ascending the mountain. .4| President Taft Coming to Maine.

Reed of Gardiner, athletic* coach, gives tin* following timely sug gestions about Marathon runs. The Marathon runs as held annually by the Boston Athletic* Association on April 19th (from Ashland to Boston) is a-much heralded and looked forward to event, the most noted and well known distance runners of our coun try ’«eing entered.

Many of the well known trainers of New England had been looking for just such a surprise, and it was handed them in last year's Tint. Many of the great runners were warned and told that they were training wrong. To go out and run ten or fifteen miles night after night, weeks before the big event, and continue this kind of work within a few days of the contest will use up all the vitality of any mail. Take such well known runners as Henry of Everett; the above was the i kind of work he did; time after time i he was advised t stop this century jago kind of training and to adopt I inodtm lhethoils. hut tie would not.

From the way the other noted runners dropped out from the race, they showed that their training could not have been systematic, and that they must have been overworked. Roy Welton of Lawrence, the lad who made such a fine showing in the Olym pic games held in London a year ago last summer Is another who over worked himself and had to quit, as so many of the other noted men were compelled to do Henri Retrard, the winner of the B. A A. seems to have run short dis tances, and did them at top speed. Thls*kinil of work shows that he must have taken advice from someone who knew, his father may be (for he was an old-time professional), or from necessity, as his business kept him pretty well tied up and gave no time ihu the long distnnck work. The short distances done by him at top speed showed that it would develop one List er, give him endurance, speed and staying dualities, where the long dis tance will eat up one's vitality and destroy his endurance, so that on the day of the big event, the long distance trained man is /mind lying by the wayside, while the short distance and speed trained man romps home a win ner. Renard, the Nashua, N. 11. mill hand, last year’s winner, is entered again this year, and is contldent that he will he a two-time winner, but will j history repeat itself Distance running is a fine exercise and develops many qualities in one, such as grit, determination, endur ance. vitality, etc., besides giving one i good physical body. Did you ever hear of a well trained runner having indigestion, sleepless night, insomnia, or any of the ailments the person who eats rich food, rides every place he goes, sleeps with the windows down, work in an office or shop where the air is bad? To be happy, get out in Clod's I sunshine, walk, run, breathe deep, be conquerors of the wind, rain and storm, smile and he happy On n j rainy day do you ever have the blues? 'The next time this happens, put on your raincoat and get out and face the j elements. Let the wind and rain iheat into your face, and praise the Lord that you are living for the wind and rain are for us to conquer, and in conquering, the blues will vanish “Eat to live," don't "live to eat.' Revel in God's sunshine and rain. Ex ercise. whether it is running, boating swimming, mountain climbing, in th miles and the rider gets no jar. The Journal man was treated to both sides of the game yesterday. The private dance given by Mrs. M. M. Johnson. Mrs. C, a. Fuller, Miss Ethel M. Marston and Miss Helen C.

Waller Camp directed the football practice at Yale Tuesdaj afternoon I for tile first time under lliu new rules Read, who was playing and. injured I his knee in making a tackle in a 10- minute scrimmage. Tim practice at traded a big crowd who were eager fO see the new game. Fifteen hundred students of the i ni- ▼erslty of Kansas have voted unaiii moush in favor of abolishing tliej Thanksgiving football game in K trs.r City, which lias been the big feature of university athletics in that section for tf> years. The students voted hold the game on the Saturday before Thanksgiving, and that it he played alternately in Lawrence and Columbia. Mo. "Tile abolition of the Kansas City game would remove all the oh jectlons as to three things that the re gents urge against the game now.” ■Old Edwin Markham, who put the resolution. "They are commercialism, gambling on the game and drunken ness In connection with the game" The second football practice at Har e*rd under the direction of Coach Percy Haughton went off very smooth ly Tuesday. The first thing on the program was several minutes of severe work on the dummies, in which the men were carefully coached as to the I way In which they must tackle the dummy, according to the new rules. with ail dive tackling barred. The old system of tackling has always been j unpopular at Harvard, and many of j the men are accustomed to the "hang ing tackle” that is now required, and so do not find it hard breaking into tile new wfcy of bringing the man with the hull to the ground.

The setbacks that tlm Harvard 'ar sity crew have experienced durini the past few days, together with tin ex cellent progress the Navy crew lias made on the Severn river, has led Coach Richard Olendon of the Middies to feel that, the Xavy has something more than a lighting chance to win the first race in the long series on Die Navy schedule, when Harvard rows at Annapolis next week. The unusually mild weather of this spring, making possible u start In actual rowing of fully two weeks before the average lime, has been a potent element in rushing along the Xavy crew To date the only drawback has been the ab sence of Meigs at how for a time, ow ing to mumps.

There would then he nr. chance for a protest in ease a game might be Inst through a pho tographer accidentally interfering with a player about to mate a catch up,.a which the result of a game depended.

Caehler The Woman Behind the Pocket-book How can she pay the meat bills and grpcery bills on the same old “allowance”? She must have more money, or cut out expensive foods. If you are going to cut out meat you will want a good, nourishing, strength-giving substitute. Vege tables are too starchy for a steady diet. Try for ten days and notice the difference. It contains more real body-building nutriment than meat or eggs. Is more wholesome, costs much less. Always the same price—always clean—always pure— always the same. Your grocer sells it. Shredded Wheat Biscuit is made of the whole wheat, steam-cooked, shredded and baked in the cleanest, finest food factory in the world. It is ready-cooked, ready-to-serve. Two Shredded Wheat Biscuits heated in the^ oven to restore crispness, and eaten with a little hot milk, and salted or sweetened to suit the taste, will supply all the energy needed for a half day's work.

Trade is picking up in baseballs and modi balls I uh liavn peace—even if we have tn liKbl f‘ make from a lliianeial point of view— to say untiling of tin- chances that lie will meet Ids end in the electric chair —offers very little encouragement for others to follow his example.

The Journal is in receipt of a pamphlet purporting to have been written by one Rev. J A. Homan and entitled 'Prohibition. The Enemy of Temperance" If the Rev. gentleman is not too much exhausted by this re markable effort, he should prepare a supplementary volume entitled "Rum selling the Friend of Temperance." We have no doubt he will be able to prove the latter proposition quite as well as he did the first. Augusta citizens will generally join in the hope that our local militia company—Company M of the Second Infantry—tuay be kept up to the standard necessary to insure its maintenance. I’nder Captain Janies F. Bugley. and largely through his ef forts. the personnel of the company is on a high plane. It would seem as if there should be no difficulty in re cruiting It up to the required strength with u class of young men who. like those already enlisted, will be a credit to the service and to the city, it is certainly to be hoped that local pride will lend a hand In bringing about this desirable result. The Opening of the Baseball Season. Today, weather permitting, the teams of the big baseball leagues ill begin their struggle for '.lie 1910 pen nants. It is generally conceded that this struggle .vill be one of the mosi hotly contested in the history of th'Mi he no question lint what Itie Anieriean league has had the call with a majority of the fans. This fad is. undoubtedly, due to the popular belief" that its affairs are enndueted in a big ger and broader way. Till" winter wrangling of the magnates of the Na tional league, and their failure to back up and sustain good men who have had the courage and manhood to stand for the best interests of the game has led the public to believe, rightly or wrongly, that a number of them are men of rather small calibre, and no great credit to the game. The smooth and harmonious manner in which the affairs of the American league have been conducted, have gone very far to win it popular favor. Its president. Ran 15. Johnson, is said to receive a salary ot $125,000 a year: but he is worth it He enjoys the contidenee and respect of the sport-loving public to an extent that lias never been sur passed by any other man in the his tory of the great national game He is square, and honest, and fearless, and has always stood for clean sport. This year the National league wilt start the season under the direction of a new president. Thomas J. Lynch. There is no doubt but what the elec tion of Mr. Lynch was popular with the fans throughout the country. He had an exceptionally fine record as an umpire. In fact there never was a better one in the history of the game. The public lias good reason to regard him as a capable, honest and fearless man—who will stand, in season and out. for the best interests of the game. A host of warm friends and admirers will wish him the highest possible measure of success in his new* posi tion. Here in Maine interest in the big league races, naturally centers in the Boston clubs, and thousands of fans from this State attend the bis samcs at the Hub during the course of every season. For a time the American league team had the call. This is still to a great extent, being due in a large measure to the presence on the team of several very popular players front this State. At the same time fact remains that Maine tans never yet become reconciled to sale of Cy Young. The veteran pitch er had a host of friends m this Fred Lake was also popular Maine fans, and many of thorn are anxious to see him make good manager of the Boston nationals, is an exceedingly capable manager, and while he cannot work mnae'es. he will, undoubtedly, make that team put up a far better article of baseball this season than it did last. All or the learns in have been strengthened for Hie eomiilg season, and there is reason to believe mat the raee will be a close one. The impartial fan will watch it with inter est. and will be glad to see the best teams win. Observe Arbor Day. Tin- people of Maine will observe Arbor Day. May 13, anti it is recom mended by the State superintendent nf schools that trees and shrubs be planted in barren playgrounds adja cent to school buildings. That is an excellent idea and it should be adopt ed wherever possible. Such a cam paign has two fold valla. It relieves the barren aspect of the school yard and inspires in the children an inter est in growing trees which will be of inestimable value to future genera tions. The present demand that steps be taken to preserve our forest resources has not been built up in a day. Kew realize just how great a part Arbor Day observance in the schools has played in creating this great national movement, it is unfortunate that the observance of the day is eoniined al most entirely to the school children. Comparatively few societies or or ganizations observe the day in a for mal manner. The true significance of the ob servance is not understood by the great mass of people who left the pub lic schools before nature study was given a place there. They all grant that it "is well enough" to plant a tree or two on Arbor Day. and then forget all about it. If approached with the proposition that they themselves plant a tree or shrub on that day they will almost invariably suggest that they have no place or that they have not the time. If a tree was planted for each in habitant of the State of Maine on the 13th of May next, upwards of 700,000 trees would be placed where they would develop under advantageous conditions. Many of the trees planted each year, die because of the unskill ful manner in which the work is done anil the lack of care which is needed for a short period. On this account the net results of Maine's observance of Arbor Day will probably be but a few hundred growing trees. This is to la; regretted, because. while it is somewhat of an effort to persuade people that they ought to take lime to plant a few trees, it is no effort at till to persuade men to destroy them. There is room for a strenuous cam paign of education having fur its ob ject a. more extensive observance of the day. VOICES OF THE PRESS. The Cost of Education. (Houston Post.)

Just to get an idea of what iit'e in Maine does for a man read this, clip ped from tlie Maine Woods: Eddie Grant is feeling much better this spring than lie was last. He is only 7J years young this April, anyway, and growing young every day. On a certain day in April last year Eddie met a friend, and informed him that just 7! years ago "an awful pretty baby come into this world." Maine Woods: vve heard a young man stopping In the country this sprint;, say. "i thought we hud to pay a big price for maple syrup, hut now 1 know how much work it is to make it. I know that the farmer earns all he gets for it." If we could hut change places one with anotln r non and then, we should come to have quite a different estimate of many tilings and approximate much nearer to their true value- Much is learned hy observation; more by experience.

Levvison Journal: The Maine Central station at Danville Junction is about completed and is the best tiling of its kind between Union station in Port land and Watervill. Nothing remains to be done except the plumbing and the concrete platform. This platform is a big affair as it is to 1)0 «0U feet long and very wide. In the rear is a porte cochere and driveway so that passengers can leave or enter carriages without stepping outside. This is made especially to accommodate the Poland Spring trade. In fact the en tire building improvements have been entirely due to the Rickers as the old depot was entirelv unsuited for their great trade. They have purchased the old depot and will move it away as soon as the new one is opened. Another fine feature here will be the new and splendid lawns botli in front and rear ol the new structure. These will be laid out by a professional landscape gardener and will be very tine. It is understood that the Grand Trunk will also build a fine new depot in place of their old one which has long been an eye sore. This structure will be built the present season and will also be an ornament to the place. The work of the Maine Central has been very extensive between the junction and Rumford Junction as the grade has been lowered so that nine extra loaded freight cars had to be taken on each train of that kind. This work is still going on at a heavy ex pense. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought Bears the Pignatnre of gleanings AND GOSSIP. The chief of police of Whitney.

Quebec, April 13.—It was learned to day by The Associated Press oil tho highest authority that the interests of those I'nited States lumbermen, who have pull* "opd cut hut not delivered, will be protected by the provincial government in the ordcr-in-eouneil, which is to be passed within a few days, prohibiting the exportation of pulp wood to the United States. The new law prohibiting exportation will apply only to pulp wood cut on and after May 1 next. Kegarding the report from Wash ington that the President will impose retalitory duties on the provinces it it utnleistood that the government has taken this matter into consideration and is fully prepared for any action which Washington may take. "The I lumber interests of tin- province are I being protected by us,” said a promi nent ollieial of tile government, "and they must be prepare*! to meet a lit tie higher duty on pulp. I do not think th.e people of file United States would favor increased duty on pulp and pa per from Canada.” PULP WOOD EXPORT. Prohibition by Canada May Reduce American Manufacture. Washington, April 13.—The an nouncment that the province of Que bec by an order-in-council would al most immediately prohibit the expor tation of pulp wood from that province to the United States was received here with surprise and regret. At tile state department it was said that the prospect of closer commercial relations and of a trade treaty with the Dominion were thought to be suffi ciently encouraging to deter any of the provinces from imposing prohibitory restrictions now. The result of such summary action as proposed would in terfere seriously, it is felt, with the realization of the suggested trade treaty and might in a measure nullify the good that was accomplished by the closer friendly relations into which the governments of the United States and the Dominion ef Canada have recent ly been brought. The proposed increase of stumpage dues and license fees for the sake of insuring increased revenue is not ques tioned. but the intention to prohibit the exportation of pulp wood is re garded in some quarters as closely ap proaching an unfriendly act. During tile tariff negotiations subsequeni at Albany and Washingto i. there was some discussion of the wood pulp sit uation, but that matter is understood to have been iefc lor further discus sion anent the proposed reciprocity treaty between this country and the Dominion, the initial steps of which, it was believed would l>o taken during the coining month. The question of applying the maximum or minimum rates of the United States tariff, grow ing out of the Franeo-Canadian treaty, it is said, was settled satisfact n-ilv. and at that time it was understood that (tie Dominion government mul no intention of enacting any regulations which would interfere with the expor tation of pulp wood from the entire Dominion and it was hoped that the same friendly disposition would be shown by the provinces. That the decision of tile Quebec au thorities is designed t*> benefit Cana dian labor is the general belief of flic Washington officials. Ultimately, they think, it will result in the establish ment of pulp factories in the province, thus reducing In so much the manu facture of pulp at American works. However, the amount of pulp wood coming from the Quebec crown lands is not very considerable. I.ast year tile total importation of tin- United States from Quebec was l.oOM.iiOO cords, of which 1311,000 were cut from crown lands. Tin* nrder-in-eouucil soon to lie issued will not affect the exportation of (holier from private lands. f There are tinOO square miles of crown lands in the province of Quebec, of which American interests, the Inter national Paper Co., and the Perl in Mills Co., lease or rent more than half. An adjudication of their rights* under the new order of things will be a ques tion for the state department to take up. ANOTHER VICTIM Of the Poisoned Whiskey—D. T. Sulli van, Westerly, R. I., Dead. Westerly, It. 1.. April 13.—Another name was added tills evening to the list of those persons believed to have died during the past week in Westerly and nearby towns from drinking whiskey eontaining poison. Daniel T.

Mr. Packard says they enjoyed the California trip very much, but are equally pleased again to be at home. Several Augusta smelt fishermen were out at Cohbofseecontee Tuesday evening, but it is reported that the trip was not wholly one of pleasure. In the first place the little fish were not running well and the number se cured was comparatively small, and another drawback to the pleasure was the temperature. One fisherman who is employed during the day in making up pills and powders allows that he came near freezing his fingers and also that he is all caught up on smelt dipping for this season.

The use of pasty cereals is not ad visable. A physician says: "Pasty cereals are very indigestible and a bad thing for the stomach, causing a de pressed feeling and quite a train Of disorders, particularly of the intestines and nerves. Cereals, such as wheat and oats, can be cooked long enough and well enough to fit them for human use but the ordinary way of cooking leaves them in a pasty condition.” A gentleman from Hvansville, Ind.. says: “My physician prohibited the use of oats and wheat for I was in a bad condition physically, with pronounced dyspepsia. "He said the heavy paste was indi gestible but that Grape-Nuts, being a thoroughly cooked food and cooked in such a manner as to change the starch into a peculiar sugar, could be easily digested. "I have become very fond indeed of Grape-Nuts and all the uncomfortable feelings have disappeared. I have gained nearly twelve pounds in weight and have none of the distressed, full feeling after my meals that I had for merly. Grape-Nuts food has done the work."

HALF A MILLION People Engaged in Meat War in New York. Gentiles Join Boycott Led by The Hebrew Women. Co-operative Shops Proposed as Solution of Meat Problem. New York, April 13.—Estimates' were made today that more than 500.000 residents of the East Side and Brook lyn are engaged in the war started by women several days ago against the Kosher butcher shops because of a sharp advance in the price of meat. Hundreds of shops have closed and volunteers among the women were out in numbers today as pickets, warning the daring dealers who showed sings of opening their shops. Threats of magistrates to send women arrested for rioting to the workhouse, had little effect in quieting disturbances, which were reported from all parts of the district. Many Gentiles who had been pur chasing meat from the Kosher shops because it was cheaper, joined their Hebrew neighbors today in their boy cott movement. Co-operative shops are proposed to solve the problem of lower prices and contributions are be ing taken today to start the first one and see how the experiment will work.

All ladies of Augusta, Hallowell and Gardiner interested in gas cooking are cordially invited. KEEPS FISH WITHOUT WATER. Woman Makes Discovery of Great Value To the Government. Mrs. Frank M. Johnson, wife of a Bos ton surgeon, has devised a method of keeping fish alive without water. Both Mrs. Johnson and her husband are deep ly interested in fish culture and have at Springfield, N. H., a private fishery’ of their own. Mrs. Johnson, who is now staying in New York, gives tins account of her device: "I first took a large glass jar, much longer than wide, in the bottom of which I placed a thick pad of dampened felt. Then near the top of the jar I put in an intake tube on one side and an exhaust tube on the other. Midway in the jar I put a little screen shelf on which 1 laid the fish. After moistening its gills witli water I closed the top of the jar and started oxygen to work, simply pumping it in the jar in the ordinary way. 1 not only kept tlie first fish alive, but experi mented on others, and they thrived for days and weeks." "But what keeps the fish from flopping about on the screen in tlie manner of fish when out of water?" "Because it is intoxicated. The fish is simply drunk with oxygen and lies there inflating its gills as regularly as when in water. “You can imagine how valuable this discovery may prove to Government hatcheries when you stop to think that in shipping fish across the continent to stock streams and rivers the Government uses an especially aranged car for its purposes. This is so built that the water is forced 'round and round in the tank in order to supply fresh oxygen, which not only keeps the fish agitated but often re sults in great loss of life as well. "A car built on the oxygen plan, which I have now proved to be practical, will keep the fish quiet and the oxygen will keep them alive until they reach their destination, when they can lie returned to the water.—New York Sun. GROWING OLD GRACEFULLY. The Gentle Act of Resting and the Problem of Dress. Into the task of growing old gracefully must enter a very large proportion of disbelief in old saws and traditions. There must be no giving in to such ex cuse as "at my age” it would be foolish to do so and so, or "I must expect" not to be able to enter into this or that pur suit with the zest of long ago. Health is tlie first precious possession to con serve or to cultivate if it be not already possessed. There are many women who as they grow older grow stronger, and should such be the case, instead of ac cepting the altered conditions passively, though thankfully, means should lie ta ken to make them a source of enjoyment. It is never too late to travel, for exam ple. if there be opportunities of doing so to be seized, and as to travel is not to rust, but to be kept young by tile sov ereign method of receiving new impres sions, it is an excellent resource for all who would renew or prolong their youth. To breakfast in retirement is to instir a calm beginning to the day and is a plan that is strongly advocated for the busy woman who is no longer young as birth days go. but' who wishes to remain young in spirit and in appearance. There is much that can be thought out then in stead of at night, when all thought should be abandoned and "beauty sleep" be sought early. The woman who loses her hold upon that which formerly inter ested her is not going the right way to ward securing a graceful old age. Should she abandon her liking for becoming clothes, loses her zest for pictures and poetry and for concerts and the drama, she will find her life considerably n£fV rowed in a very short space of time. What she snould wear is a question sometimes despairingly considered by the woman who imagines that the dress maker.-' and milliners despise any custo mers save the youthful and lovely, As Stomach Blood and Liver Troubles Much sickness (tarts with weak stomach, and consequent poor, impoverished blood.

His ideal of graceful age is a white haired, clear-complexioned and slender woman, with coloring like a cameo, whom he dresses in white and the most delicate grays and fawns, touched with tender i rose and pale blue.

William Jennings Bryan, written from Brazil, and read tonight before the Democrats who attended the Jefferson Day banquet here and those at a sim ilar function in Indianapolis—the letter which caused a commotion among the local banquet committeemen at its ini tial reading, because of what some of them termed its unorthodox doctrine— is as follows: “1 thank you for invitation to the Jefferson Day banquet. While I shall not return to the United States in time to attend, I can join with you in spirit the more heartily because of what I have learned by visiting other coun tries. I have seen everywhere the in fluence exerted by his teachings. in the nation in which I am just now so journing I find illustrations of his idea, of conquest. He contended that we should conquer the world witli our ideals rather than with our arms and in this sense we are effecting a con quest of Brazil. "Her constitution is modelled after ours, she has copied from us the fed eral system of government whicit unit ed local control of local affairs with its national supremacy; her flag, like ours, .has a star for each state, and her school system is being made to con form more and more to ours. These victories, too, cement friendship, in stead of arousing enmity. Hail to Jef ferson. the world's schoolmaster, whose views continue their majestic march around the earth. “But in our own country' as well as abroad, his principles are triumphing. He taught that the art of government is the art ot being honest, arid eaeli new investigation proves the folly of those who refuse to learn of him. He was the foe of monopoly' in every form and his name is the one which can with most propriety be invoked when the trusts tire attacked and when i contest is being waged for the appli cation of the principles of popular government. "I rm so far away from home that 1 am not fully informed as to the recent events, but I nave just read of one Jef fersonian victory namely, the selection of an investigating committee by the House Instead of by the Speaker, and, better still, each party selected its mem bers of the committee. This establishes an important precedent, which if fol lowed. will make investigations real and effective. “I notice also that we seem likely to win a victory against the meat trust Monopoly prices have at last provoked a popular protest and now that the people are looking for a remedy there is hope that they will accept the Democratic remedy. It is not unnatural that they should use the boycott, even if they pun ish themselves while they are inflicting punishments on their oppressors; but I am sure they will, in the end. find legis lation more satisfactory than abstin ence from meat, and join with file Demo crats hi declaring a private monopoly, not the meat trust only, but every pri vate monopoly, indefensible and intol erable. "But there is another item of news, which has just come to my attention. President Taft in Ids Lincoln day speech at New York. Feb. 12, attributes pres ent high prices mainly to the increase in production of gold and the consequent enlargement of the volume of money. This unexpected indorsement of our par ty's proposition in 1S9G when we de matided more money as the only remedy] for falling piices, is very gratifying. How valuable that admission would have been to us if it had been made during the campaign of that year, when the Re publican leaders were denying that the volume of money had an influence on pn.-es and asserting that it did not mat ter whether we had much money or lit tle, provided it was ail good. Wo may now consider the quantita tive theory of money established beyond dispute and proceed to the consideration ■>f other questions. Rut the President and his predecessor have admitted the correctness of the Democratic position on so Ilian! questions that further argu ment is hardly necessary on any sub ject; we may now take Judgment against the Republican r.arty by confession. "Please present my compliments to the Democrats assembled in memory of the s.agc or Monticeilo. I take !t for granted that your gathering will not ad lourn w ithout the. adoption of a resolu tion urging the ratification by all the states of the income tax amendments to the federal Constitution. "The time is ripe for a return to Jeffersonian principles and I trust th> representatives of our party will make a good record which will secure us a majority at the coming congressional election. With that advantage gained the Democrats will have an opportunity to outline a program; and with a pro gram in harmony with Jeffersonian ideas, the Democracy will enter the President ial campaign with a promise of suc cess." CAN’T FILL CONDITION. Democrats Will Never Thus Secure In dependence League. Washington, April 13.—John Temple Graves, former candidate for v ice President of the United States on the Independence League ticket injected into the Jefferson day dinner here late tonight a sensational feature. Mr. Graves who was not on the program, was requested at a late hour, to speak. He offered to the Democratic party in the coming campaign the support of the Independence League and its or ganizer, William Randolph Hearst. if the party would recognize the Protes tant principles of th Independence "We see an opportunity for united action. It depends upon you. We are ready to accept the Democratic party that is not half Bryan, half Belmont, half Hearst, half Ryan. If these terms are not acceptable the Independence League must stand outside and await a better day.” AT WASHINGTON. Jefferson Day Celebrated by Attacks On Republican Policies. Washington, April 13.—Vigorous at tacks on the Republican policy of high protection, condemnation of the Payne Aldrich tariff law, which it was con tended was one of the principal causes of present high prices, spirited defence of the political principles of Thomas Jefferson and loudly applauded predic tions of Democratic, victory at the com congressional elections, were made by the speakers at the banquet here tonight in honor of the birthday anniversary of Thomas Jefferson. These declarations were greeted with eneers which made the big banquet ring. With members of both houses of Congress among the speakers and with representatives of Democracy from all parts of the United States there, the banquet was an enthusiastic approval of the principles of Jefferson. The first speaker of the evening was Rep. Harrison of New York. Senator Benjamin P. Shively of In diana termed the Republican party rule as a confederacy of special privi lege which had turned the taxing pow er ot government into private assets. Champ Clark of Missouri minority leader of the House, said that after the manner of the "one hoss shay” the Republican party is going to pieces. Condemning the Republican party as •the most extravagant the sun ever shone upon.” and calling what tie dubbed “the Payne-Aldrich-Smoot tariff hill” the worst tariff hill ever placed upon ihe tariff books.' the speaker said that 'it and its predeces sor. the Dingley bill, together with the trusts bred by the high tariff are largely responsible for the high eost of living. If a higli tariff does not in crease prices." lie asked, “why do the tariff barons want a high tariff? The question answers itself. "The increase of gold." lie contin ued, "has some influence in raising prices it is true, but the high tariff and the trusts are the principal factors in increasing the price of manufac tured articles.” "Economy is a humble theme." lie said, "affording little opportunity for burnished rhetoric or far-re-sounding eioouen.ee, but," lie added, "it appeals to the average man with great force expccially iri this period of high prices ni living, constantly growing higher." "The people, this fall." he said, "are quite likely to take it into their heads to locate the authors of the vast ex travagance which is eating up their substance and to punish them when found—a just and patriotic perform ance which will give us a Democratic House of Representatives in the next Congress and both a Democratic Pres ident and House of Representatives. In 1912.” New England Postmasters’ Annual Meet Boston, April 13.—More than 300 postmasters from different parts of New England and prominent postal of ficials from Washington attended the semi-annual convention today of the Postmasters Association of New Eng land. President John Duff of New Bedford presided and the forenoon papers were read by Postmaster William H. Pierce of Winchendon, Mass., on "Should the Government Discontinue the Printing of Special Bequest Envelopes?” and by Edward J. Ryan, superintendent of the New England Railway mail ser vice, on "Checking of Errors Made in Distribution." At the afternoon session the speak ers were Postoffice Inspector Charles M. Perkins, E. T. Bushnell and E. H. Thorp of the department at Washing ton and Postmaster John A. Sheldon of Rutland, Vt. The banquet held tonight at the New American House was one of the live liest the postmasters have ever held. Subjects of peculiar interest to those present were discussed by E. T. Bush nell, chief clerk to the first assistant postmaster general at Washington, D. C.; Postmaster E. M. Morgan of New York City; W. A. Murphy, secretary to the governor of Massachusetts; As sistant United States District Attorney E. Mark Sullivan, Boston; and E. E. McMillin of New York.

As agreed upon today, the provision permits all persons Interested to be come parties to the suit. The more liberal provision was conceded by the sup;>citers of the bill and there was no \oling division. There was long discussion of the question of combined rail and water transportation on an amendment of fered by Mr. Klkins but no action was taken. THE ANTIS ARE MAD Because Pres. Taft Promises to Ad dress Woman Suffragists. New York. April 13.—President Taft by promising to address the Woman Suffrage Convention which will open in Washington tomorrow has arouaed the wrath of the "Antis” who have sent him a letter of protest. The com munication is signed by nine repre sentative members of the New York State Association opposed to woman suffrage, and says in part: "It is with great regret that the wo men belonging to the New York State Association opposed to woman suffrage have heard that you are to address the advocates of woman suffrage at their opening meeting this week. Although you have publicly declared that this action is not to be taken as endorsing the movement it is impossible to dis abuse the minds of the general public from accepting your presence there as your sanction at least.” A Pension Bill Worth Considering Washington, April 13.—A pension bill of sweeping provisions under which all surviving volunteer officers of the Unit ed States army who served six months or more would receive retired pay ac cording to length of service and all hon orably discharged enlisted men over 70 years of age and suffering a certain de gree of disability would receie a straight pension of $30 per month, was reported to the House today by Prince of Illinois, from the committee on military affairs. In recommending the measure, the com mittee's report says that although the volunteer troops "formed 96 per cent, of the armies of the United States and achieved 96 per cent, of the historic re sults,” the regular officers have received all the honors and rewards of the gov ernment and the volunteer officers noth ing. The scale of retirement of officers as fixed by the bill is one-third of the initial active pay of corresponding regular of ficers. for those who served two years or more. anVl for those 'of less time ol' service the pay is in proportion. Of ficers who last an eye or limb in the line of duty or incurred disability as prisoners of war. would receive the full benefits of the act without regard to length of service. No officer who served more than six months would receive less than $100 per annum and no officer woud receive more than two-thirds of the present pay of a captain in the regular army. A private soldier over 70 years of ago would receive $30 per month, provided lie served more than 90 days and his physical disability (Not necessarily of service origin), was such as "to require the frequent and periodical care and at tention of another person.” The report of the committee includes an estimate from the secretary of the interior, which fixes the cost of the first year's operation of tlie proposed law at $9,361,01". NINE MONTHS ENOUGH. No Excuse for Keeping Any Food Longer in Cold Storage. Washington, April 13.—"There is no excuse for detaining any article of food in cold storage for a period longer than nine months," according to a state ment by Dr. H. W. Wiley, chief of the bureau of chemistry of the department of agriculture, presented to the Senate today by Chairman Lodge of the com mittee, which is investigating the high cost of living. "Whenever the storage of a product is continued long enough to interfere with the output of the next season’s crop," says Dr. Wiley, “it has been car ried to a point beyond the limits of reasonable economy and practical hygiene." CANNON’S OPPONENTS Are Still Discussing and Preparing for Another Attack. Washington, April 13.—As a result of Speaker Cannon’s speech last Monday in which he once more defied tile ‘‘In surgent" Republicans and the ensuing acrid retorts of various leaders of that faction in which they promised "to at tend to his case later," the situation in the House today, as indicated by many private conferences among the members, was one of considerable ten sion. Notwithstanding a great percentage of them privately discussed during the any, the threatened deposition of Speaker -Cannon, no attempt at such drastic action is expected at present. Leaders of the "Insurgents” expressed themselves, without exception, as op posed to any radical steps against the Speaker until after all administration legislation and other important meas ures have been disposed of. There was nothing in the remarks of the Democratic members to indicate that there would be any change in the attitude of that minority towards the Speakership, as expressed in their re cent unanimous vote to declare the chair vacant. Many Democrats prefer to have the issue of "Cannonism" re main in its present status, but among both Democrats and "Insurgents” there was freely expressed the opinon that some time before adjournment, another fight against the Speaker would he. precipitated. NOT BEFORE NOVEMBER Is Re-argument Expected in Standard Oil and Tobacco Trust Casas. Washington, April 13.—So hopeful was Supreme Court Justice Moody that he would be able to return to Washington during the past winter that two months ago he accepted an invitation extended by Attorney Oen eral Wickersham to attend a dinner by him to the supreme court. However a setback prevented his com ing. Should he be able to attend the fall term of the court officials here think there is no reason why he should not sit in the Standard Oil and the To bacco Trust cases, even though he was at the head of the department of jus tice when the initial steps in those cases were taken. In administration circles the re-ar gument asked for by the court is not expected to take place before Novem ber. COMIC OPERA INDICTMENT Is Penton’s Description of Charge of Libel Against Him. Washington. "IpHl 13.—Referring to the grand jury presentment against him for libel, as a comid opera indictment, declaring that the Merchant Marine League of the United States never spent five cents on any one in Washington for any purpose, and that its record was ex traordinarily clean. John A. Penton of Cleveland. Ohio, secretary of the league, was the chief witness today in the ship subsidy investigation. He was called sharply to account hy counsel for Rep. Steenerson (who accused him of the li bel), for speaking disrespectfully of the processes of the law, and the remark was withdrawn. Mr. Penton told the select committee of the House cf a galaxy of public men who have made speeches, as the instance of the league, for it or to it. The list included President Taft, Ex-President Roosevelt, Ex-Vice President Fairbanks, Speaker Cannon, Ex-Governor Herrick of Ohio, Ex-Senator Foraker and a hosi of others. The committee adjourned un til Monday when Penton and John M. Maxwell, former editor of the American Flag, the League’s organ, will be ready to take the witness stand. Harvey Goulder of Cleveland, the on ly other witness today told of Capt. John Mitchell and Dr. Hanna, Goulder’s in timate friends contrituting $r»00 each to the League. Penton described the organization of th'e League and said that it had got so that a man engaged in the shipbuilding industry had to enter Washington h> night, and his visit was interpreted as necessitating a call for the poliep. Air. Penton said he wrote the article in the American Flag which figures so conspicuously in the libel proceedings brought against him by Steenerson ard in the Congressional investigation and that it was an answer to Steenerson’s letter calling the League an organiza tion ot persons who expected to get hig contracts under the proposed legislation Penton said lie stood by his answer. MILK, BUTTER AND CHEESE Are Great Stamping Grounds for Typhoid and Tubercular Bacilli. Washington, April 13.—A sweeping in vestigation of the danger to the human family from milk, butter and cheese in fested with typhoid or tuberculosis germs is contemplated by the terms of a res olution introduced in the House today by ■Mr. Parsons of New York. The resolu tion would direct this inquiry to be made by the committee on agriculture. The preamble of the measure cites that offi cial investigation by the department of agriculture had ascertained that typhoid bacilli remain alive and virulent in but ter for at least 150 days and that the tubercular bacilli remain in ordinary salted butter 100 days. Also that more than 1 per cent, of every 20 samples of commercial butter gathered by the de partment of agriculture in this city had been found to be infected with tubercu lar bacilli.

Baseball Season Will Open Today. N'ew York. April 13.—No baseball season ever opened with brighter prospects, fi nancially and for sport's sake alone, than that which begins tomorrow for the two major leagues, the National and American. Nearly every one of the If clubs in the two leagues has been con siderably strengthened. Pittsburg, the world beaters, will be even harder press ed than last year it is expected, while Detroit, the American champions, will have an exceptionally hard struggle to establish the American League record'of four straight pennants.

April 13—Though District Attorney William Blakeley did not proceed with the trial of the seven councilmen whose names were on the criminal court list today, charged with grafting, the hands of the prose cutor of Pittsburg’s gigantic scandal were strengthened all along the line and after further efforts to defeat the course of the law met with rebuffs Three ex-councilmen who have been declaring that they would fight to a finish, pleaded no defence and were granted immunity. Efforts at techni cal obstacles in the case of another ex-councilman were foiled. An attach ment was issued for yet another who was delinquent in appearance, while two others were given a further respite to decide whether they would stand trial. John Casserly, Isaac Llbson and John Hogue were the ones that decided to make a clean break of things. Each acknowledged receiving money for his vote in the councils. In the case of John Taylor an effort was again made to attack the eligibility of Harrison Nesbitt as foreman of the grand Jury. —.
