AUGUSTA—PHONE 1264 VEWISTON—ROCKLAND BATH—GARDINER Our Private Wires Quote All Stocks and Bondi Our Investment Advice la at Your Disposal Stocks and Bonds ■OUGHT AND SOLD in Now York and Boaton Markcta For Cash or Carried on Margin over Our Private Wires To Now York and Boston EASTERN ROADS TO ACCEPT CUT FREIGHT RATES New York, May 19—The ten per cent. reduction in freight rates ordered by the Interstate Commerce Commis sion, effective July 1 will be accepted by the 37 railroads of the eastern divi sion, it was decided at a special meet ing of officials of these roads today. It also was decided to enter a for mal protest against the findings of tlie commission that on and after March 1, 1922, the fair return on rail road Investments, as provided by the transportaton act, shall be 5 3-4 per cent. There was r.o consideration of wages or passenger rates. I.. F. Force, chairman of the eas tern president’s conference, said to night the conference "felt tlie roads had no other alternative except to put the rates into effect without a formal order." Regarding the matter of a "fair return." he said the conference "believed this return is lower than is required by law and will not enable the railroads to finance themselves to the extent th*t they should be able to do in order to render adequate service to the public.” While no official action was taken. I the personal sentiment of many of tliej executives represented at today's m’eting. was decidedly strong for ad ditional wage reductions, it was an nounced. As expressed by one official, “the roads confidently expect that the rest of the 1920 increase will be wiped i out, to offset the $100,000,000 reduction) i in freight lates." DENY MERGED OF CENTRAL PACIFIC, SOUTHERN PACIFIC! ■Washington, May 29.—Dissolution j of ownership *nd control of the Central Pacific Railway by the j i Southern Pacific Company was order, j cl today by the Supreme Court in I an opinion delivered by Justice Pay. The decision in the case which was the last of the railroad merger suits to Ire before the court held that the two lines were competitive. Justice McKenna delivered a short dissent. The court directed that a decree lie entered severing the control by the Southern Pacific of the Central Pa cific by stock ownership or by lease hut in accomplishing that end so far as compatible, said the mortgage lien on the f'nion Trust Company of New York should be protected. The case had been ponding in the courts since February 11, 1914, when the Vnited .States asked the United, States District court of Utah to re strain the two railroads, the Union Trust Company of New York and the directors and officials of the Southern Pacific under the Sherman anti-trust and the Pacific Railroad acts. The United States asserted that the lines j of the two railroads constituted com petitive systems and added that the i ownership acquired by the Southern 1 Pacific of a controlling interest in the Central Pacific be declared un j lawful. Sunday Blue Law Test in Vermont Rutland, Yt.. May 29.—The Sun day blue laws were invoked here to day when Wallace H. Waite, a me- j chanie, was arrested on the charge of disturbing the peace of the Sab- I bath by hammering and sawing, j The complaint was made by a neigh- bor. Mr. Waite informed Grand j Juror IJnley S. Squires, who made out the warrant, that he would not plead guilty to breaking any law by doing w'hat scores of people in town do every Sunday and he will fight the case. State's Attorney Charles E. Novak took issue with Mr. Squires and said that if Waite was guilty of breaking the Sabbath, he himself was, as he washed his auto last Sunday. Seek Amendment to Ban Child Labor Washington, May 29.—Notice that hi* proposed constitutional amend ment to prohibit child labor would be pressed, was given in a statement issued today by Senator Johnson, Republican, California. He said the Senate was so clogged with business at this session that it was doubtful whether his proposal could be reached, but that it would be urged at this next session. _ POLIGE NET OUT FOR VENGEFUL FARM HAND Templeton, May 13—Police of this town for IS hours have boon beat ing the woods about Brock's village, in the western part of Templeton, in search of Edward Savage, a laborer, who they charge attacked his employ er, John Merkell, a farmer, with a dirk, escaped to the woods and has since at tempted to poison Merkcil's family, livestock and chickens. Savage came here three months ago from Vermont where he had worked as a lumberjack, and obtained employ ment at Merkcil's farm. Friday night, according to the farmer, he demanded his pay. A dispute arose as to the amount of money due him, and Savage. Merkell says, drew a dirk and attacked him. The farmer seized a wagon stake and chased Savage down the road. Saturday night a shed on the farm was broken into and several sticks of dynamite, us- d by the. farmer for blasting stumps, were stolen. A short time afterward an attempt was made to steal Merkcil's automobile from the garage, but the farmer fired a shot with a rifle and the thief ran away. Yesterday an attempt was made to Poison the Merkell family by putting a mixture used for spraying plants in tiio milk pails, cans and pans. The poi son also was placed in the mangers used by the horses and cows, in the pigs' feed trough, and in the poultry house. Articles of food have been taken from various farmhouses in the dis trict, and tile police believe Savage is still hiding in the woods which arc watched day and night. Overdose of Drug Cause Nurse Logue’s Death, Experts Agree Cambridge, Mass., May 29—Medical Examiners of Middlesex and Suffolk counties, testifying today at the trial of Dr. Michael M. Stevens of Woburn for manslaughter because of the death by poisoning last Christmas of Grace Logue, a nurse and his office assist ant gave as their opinion that death "as due to an overdose of a drug, lliis opinion, both said was based on the condition of the vital organs which they examined. Dr. George B. Mugrath, medical examiner of Suffolk county who con ducted an autopsy when the nurse’s body was exhumed January 23, said the only marks on the body were caused by the clothing. In reply to a hypothetical question asked by As sistant District Attorney Blood with regard to quantities of a drug ad mittedly administered to Miss Cogue to allay the pain of a toothache. Dr. Magrath said ho believed death to be due to poisoning by the drug named. 1 base this opinion on the presence of certain changes in the organs, the absence of evidence of any and every disease, and the fact that the condi tions as found were such as go with this sort of poisoning,” the medical examiner stated. Minor in tlie day Medical Exam iner Vernon C. Stewart of Middlesex county liad expressed a similar opin ion. Dr. Stewart testified that he. was called to Dr. Stevens’ office Christmas morning and found the girl dead on a couch. Dr. Stevens told him. he said that on the evening- previous he had given Miss Logue half a grain of a drug to relieve the pain of a tooth ache and later had given her an addi tional quarter grain. Mrs. Ethel M. Ford, housekeeper of the apartment building in which Dr. Stevens had his office, said she had talked with Miss I.ogue at 4 o'clock the day before Christmas. At that time the nurse had a cloth tied about her face. Other lodgers said they knew Miss Logue to be suffering from toothache. Army Retirement Board Independent Executive Action "Washington, May 29—Deciding a matter which has been disputed in army circles since the world war, the Supreme Court held today that it is not necessary for the President to re view and approve personally each in dividual case to make effective the work of the retirement board in re moving officers of the aimy from the ictive list under the national defence ict. MILL OWNERS ACAIN REFUSE PEACE OVERTURES LOOKING TO END OF TEXTILE STRIKE Concord, X. If., May 19.—After a conference late today with textile manufacturers whoso plants are af fected by the strike, Governor Albert O. Brown announced that the manu facturers would not recede from the terms which they announced early in February, a 54-hour week and a 20 per cent wage reduction. The strike in Manchester and other Xew Hamp shire centers was called on February Fl, after the mill owners had made public these terms. Earlier in the day the governor had conferred with representatives of the strikers and with officials of mill towns and cities. It was intimated by a number of strike leaders that I the operatives were willing to accept a proposal made by State Labor Commissioner John S. B. Davie for a return to work on a basis of a 4SS hour week, the question of wages to be submitted to the State Board of Conciliation and Arbitration. The following is the official state- i ment given out by Governor Albert O. Brown late today: “An effoit was made for a confer ence between the manufacturers and the strikers. That failed. “An effort was made for arbitra tion of alb matters involved. That did not meet with the favor of either party. “A suggestion of compromise on a ."iO-TiO basis, i. c. on a basis of 51-liours per week and one-half of that re dtii tion in wages proposed by the mill owners, commanded no support in either group. “Then it was suggested that the I tnilis open from one unit of their plant, say a single room or a single mill, to afford employment to former employees who are out on account of th" strike and who are needy, in some instances submitting on charity and desiring to work. This suggrs tion was taken under advisement by the manufacturers who will reply to morrow.’’ TARIFF BLOC WINS INITIAL SCRAP WITH SENATE COMMITTEE Washington, May 29—The Repub lican agricultural tariff bloc won its first, fight today in the Senate and the finance committee majority its first reverse since consideration of the tariff bill was begun five weeks ago. With the aid of a solid Democratic vote and some non-member Republi cans the tariff bloc succeeded in having cynide restored to the free list. An amendment by Senator Od die, Republican, Nevada, to strike out the committee amendment pro posing to make this commodity duti able at the rate of 10 per cent, ad valorem, was approved, 40 to 14. Senator Gooding of Idaho, chair man of the bloc was the only mem ber of that organization to vote against the Oddie proposal. Repub licans supporting it were Bursum. Capper, Cummins, Elkins, Ernst, Johnson, Jones of Washington; Kellogg, Keyes, I.add. I.aFollette. I.odge, McKinley, McNary, Nelson, Newberry. Nicholson. Norbeck, Nor ris, Oddie, Phipps, Rawson, Spencer, Sterling. Republicans opposing the amendment were: Ball. Brandegee, Dillingham. France, Frelinghuysen, Gooding. Hale. MeCumber. McEean. Page. Popper,'Smoot. Sutherland and Warren. After disposing of the Oddie amendment the Senate turned to other items previously passed over and settled down to its customary (Continued on Page 3—Col. 6) An Accident is sometimes unavoidable. !t may be your fault or the other fellow’s.

Downing Tel. 100 Vickery Bldg., may30dlt Augusta SEEK STRIKE SETTLEMENT AT LAWRENCE Lawrence, Mass., May 20.—Renew ed efforts at settlement of the textile strike in this city were indicated to night in a statement issued by Presi dent Thomas B. McMahon of the United Textile Work'ers of America, after a conference with Organizer Francis A. Gorman in charge of the strike here, and a committee of citi zens. "If the workers of the Pacific and other mills desire a settlement they must attend a meeting at which committees will be appointed to con 'reT with their various employers,” the statement said. "Only repre sentatives elected l>v the workers will lie allowed to go with the com mittees. Organized and unorganized workers should get together in an honest endeavor to settle their drf fieult ies. "There are some men among the workers of Lawrence who are more content when troubles are plenty and j whose only desire is to keep the workers apart. There is a clique of so-called textile labor leaders who claim to have the interest of the mill workers at heart but who know not what it is to work in the mills. These are using every energy in I fighting those who differ with them 1 on questions of organization instead I of fighting the employers. Such nun .as these are afraid of the employers because they fear their jobs would be lost in the event of a settlement. “Let roe repeat that the United Textile Workers of America believe in arbitration and conciliation and will use every honorable effort to bring the workers and employers to gether, with the understanding at all times that the workers themselves must have the final voice in any prof position that may come to them, no matter from wliat source such pro position may come.” President McMahon tonight re turned to Providence where he said an important conference on the Rhode Island strike situation would he held tomorrow. He will come to this city again Thursday or Friday unless the wool schedule comes be fore Congress in which event he will go to Washington.

Raids were made during the week end on Finncbrogue House at Down patrick. the home of Colonel Percival Maxwell, a member of the Northern Senate, and also on My roe Ilall, Stangford, county Down, belonging to Colonel Robert "Wallace, recently grand master of the Belfast Orange men. The attacks were saftl to have been in tiie nature of demonstrations and not to have been seriously press ed. SEE GRADUAL GAIN IN BUSINESS OUTLOOK IN NEW ENGLAND Boston. M:iy CO—Barring seasonal changes there seem to be more fact ors pointing toward a gradual im provement than to the contrary, says the monthly review of industrial and j financial conditions in the New Eng Mand district issued tonight by Fred erick II. Curtiss, chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston. The review said there has been little change in the last month. “The trend of raw material prices is usually a dependable index of the course of business prosperity,” it continues, “and those have boor, in creasing on the average at a fairly rapid pace since the first of April. I This ordinarily indicates that there will be a corresponding rise, though not as rapid or extended in the prices of manufactured goods. In fact .his tendency has already been notice! in many places. “The activity in the building indus try is another very helpful influence. There is a greater amount of new construction tinder way in this dis trict at present than in several years and this, of course, increases activity in several affiliated industries. “Ttie cotton strike continues to be the feature in the laltor situation. There apparently has been no wide spread suffering among the strikers as yet. The aggregate number of people employed in the manufactur ing industries of New X-ingland ex clusive of textiles has been increas ing since last August. The public employment offices of Massacbsetts report that the number of people seeking work through them is con tinually decreasing. At the same time the call for help is growing. “April was an exceptional month for the Boston department stores which regularly report to this bank, inasmuch as their net sales were much larger than for any previous April, for which records are available or for any previous spring month. This can be ascribed in a large measure to the lateness of Easter and in part it is due to the poor weather which prevailed in March, thereby postponing spring buying. Reporting department stores situated in other New England cities did not show as favorable results as the Boston stores. Some of the stores in this group can blame the cotton strike for a part of their lack of trade.” Santa Fe Trains Crash Engineer and Fireman Die, Passengers Safe Chicago, May 29—The engineer and fireman of a westbound California Limited on the Santa Fe were killed early today near Fort Madison, la., when the train crashed head on Into eastbound train No. 4. No passengers were injured and only the engine of the two trains left the track. WAY WORKERS SORE OVER COT, WANT TO STRIKE Boston, May 29—Hoads of main tenance of way and railway shop men's unions are meeting with much difficulty in keeping their men at work since the railway labor board announced its wage finding in Chica go Sunday, Charles H. Downey, east ern traveling representative of the United Brotherhood of Maintenance of Way Employees and Railway Shop Laborers, announced here to day. Mr. Downey, whose jurisdic tion includes all railroads in New England, the New York Central lines as far west as Buffalo, and the Delaware and Hudson, said local chairmen on all there lines had in formed him that the men were eager to strike. Every effort was being made, rail road men said, to keep maintenance of way men at work until the labor board should hand down its decis ions on the shop crafts and other workers. Yesterday’s decision was for the purpose of “forcing a fight." Mr. Downey said, adding that it was di rectly opposite to the evidence sub mitted at the hearings held in Chica go April 10 and 1". "The men have lost all confidence in the United Plates J-abor Board,” he declared. “We proved to every body, except the labor ’board, it now appears, that a cut in wages for our men at this time would be unwar ranted. When anybody states that a man can support and educate a fam ily of at least five persons on less than 1 r> a week, that person is either deliberately falsifying or mak ing the statement for a purpose. “I can say without hesitation or doubt that a general walkout of the members of more than 15 big unions not later than the middle of July is not only possible, but probable. The men will repudiate the t'nited States railway l.abor Hoard and its decis ions and awards." Representatives of the Brother hood of Railway Clerks today sent the management of the Boston and Maine railroad to protest against a jeeent order of the company cutting off holiday pay and compelling the clerks to work Saturday afternoons. After the conference the executive of the union announced that the clerks would walk out of their offices at noon Saturday and would not report until Monday.-It was also announced that an appeal from the order would be. taken to the Railway I-abor board. NOT GUILTY OF SLAYING FATHER Lynn, Mass., May U9.—After a hearing in the district court today on a charge of manslaughter, Arthur LeFebvre, Jr., was found not guilty and dischargeS. Judge Reed said that the evidence in connection with the death of LeFebvre's father last night was not sufficient to hold the son. 'The court had previously held Le Febvre in $8000 bonds for a hearing Wednesday, but decided later to pro ceed with the hearing before the holiday. The police said they had been notified by telephone that the young man had killed his father, who was found dead in a chair in the kitchen of his home. Medical Kxaminer Nathaniel P. Breed re ported he had found no marks of violence. Ataman Senenoff Can Not Be Deported Washington, May 29—General Gregorie Semenoff, Russian Cossack leader, whose deportation has been demanded by Senator Borah of Idaho for alleged brutalities perpetrated upon American soldiers in Russia, cannot be deported, according to a decision transmitted" today by Com missioner General of Immigration Husband to Secretary Davis. SENATE TO 0. K. BONUS Favors Loan Plan Lower House Measure Minor Changes Probable —Early Vole in Doubt—Question of Precedence Over Tariff ■Washington, May I?.—Approval by tlie Senate Finance Committee on Wednesday of a soldiers’ bonus bill, following closely along the lines of the House measure with its bank loan provision was forecast today by members of that committee, Republi cans and Democrats, after the subject had been discussed for nearly two hours. An informal canvass of the com i mittee today indicated that the mem bers were divided nine to six for the House measure with some modifica tions—the so-called McCumber plan. Five members, all Republicans, were reported to favor the Smoot proposi tion of paid up life insurance for the veterans in lieu of all other forms of compensation while one commit tee man, Senator Williams, Democrat, Mississippi, was understood to be op posed to any bonus legislation. Whether a land reclamation provi sion is to be included in the Mc Cumber plan is an open question and consequently it may be some time before a bonus bill is reported to the Senate. Chairman McCumber is anxious however, that the bill be re ported out in the imm diate future and he expects to press for action as speedily as possible. After reaching the Senate, the bill, in the usual course would go lo the Senate calendar to remain until rail ed up by Senator McCumber. Theie is a difference of opinion among Re publican leaders as to whether the bonus should displace the tariff bill at any time noon so the probable time at which tlx- Senate will get in to the bonus fight is indefinite. Senator McCumber is of the opinion that the Senate can dispose of the measure with a few da vs of consider ation, but this view is not shared i*V ail leant rs. wpponrnis m a nnnm in any form ns well as opponents of the amended Mouse bill are prepared for a long discussion of the ques tion. Both the McCumber and Smoot plans have been outlined In some detail to President Harding with a view of obtaining an expression of opinion from him but the committee went ahead today with their con sideration without having received any word from the executive. Pro ponents of the McCumber proposition believe that he will approve that form of bonus if passed by Congress hut publicly at least the President has given no indication of a change of mind since he told the House Ways and Means committee to finance tire bonus with a sales tax or postpone enactment of the legislation. Aside from a provision to pay cash to veterans whoso compensation would not exceed |.V». the McCumber plan would provide for adjusted ser vice certificates on which banks would be authorized to loan funds during the first thief years and the treasury thereafteu during the twenty years of the life of the certi ficates. The certificates would have a face value equal to about three times the amount of the veteran's adjusted service credit at the rats of J1 a day for domestic service amt 11.2." a day for foreign service an<t the total would be payable at the end of 20 years or sooner, upon the death of the holder. There also would be provisions for vocational training and home and farm aid. These and the cash and certificates feature almost Identical with those in the House hill, but the land settelment. or reclamation fea ture in the }louse measure has been eliminated. There is a movement In both the Senate and House to have some kind of a reclamation provision put back Jpto the hill and a special sub committee of Ttcpublican mem bers of the Finance Committee opened hearings todny on that ques tion.

May 21*—Officials of the Southern Pacific company evidently were astonished today by the ruling of the supreme court that it could not hold its interest in the Central! Pacific, but declined to make any comment pending receipt of the full text of the decision. The news came almost too late for reflection in the stock markets, but Southern Pacific shares eased witli practically all other rails in the heavy realizing movement of the last hour. On the other hand. Southern Pa cific-Central Pacific collateral four per cent, bonds which are secured by deposit of the entire preferred and almost all common stock of the Central Pacific railway company, rose from a fraction over 83, their early price, to 04 1-2. In financial circles the belief pre vailed that as a result of the court decision Southern Pacific might en tertain an offer for these bonds from Union Pacific on the theory that tlie latter road eventually would be TARIFF BLOC WINS (Continued from Pago Ono) i night session. Before that however,! an understanding was reached be tween Democratic and Republican leaders that the provisions of the tariff bill dealing with dyes would be taken up Wednesday. The contro versy over these Is expected to con sume something like a week. Chairman McCumber of the fin ance committee and Senator Fre linghuysen of New Jersey, a Repub lican member of that committee, made a fight against the Oddie amendment while Senators Oddie. Sterling. Republican. South Dakota, and Pittman, Democratic. Nevada, led the fight for the proposal. Sena tor Sterling called attention to thei miportance of cyanide to the gold* and silver mining and citrus fruit in dustries and asserted that the pro per protection of them called for free cyanide. There was reason to believe, he declared, that the American pro ducer of cyanide, the Iloesler Has slaeher Chemical Company, besides) controlling production in this coun try controlled imports from Ger many and Kngland through its con nection with German and Kngllsh in terests. This lias lreen conceded in the preliminary debate on this item which was opened several weeks ago by Senator Pittman. Calling attention that most of the imported cyanide used in this coun-1 try came from the plant of the American owned cyanide company of the Canadian side of the Niagara river, Chairman McCumber said the ten per cent, duty proposed was necessary to equalize costs of pro duction in tills country and Canada and sa'id it would be better for American consumers to have both companies in operation than to close one out and leave it at the mercy of, the German produceis. Before the cyanide fight, the Sen ale got into a preliminary jam o\ier the tariff bill in the course of yghUr-h charges of ‘•gag” rule were made By the Democrats and denied by dhe Republicans. After hours of wrang ling the Republican majority adopt ed ar tiling which precludes amend-, merits to certain stages of the hill's procedure. The dispute between the two party forces developed from the practice repeated often recently of “shaving” rates proposed by the fin mice committee—rales higher how- ever, than carried in the House bill. J The ruling by Senator Cummins, Re- publican, Iowa., president pro tem pore was that adoption by the Sen-I ate, sitting in committee of the whole of a rate offered as a sub for the substitute rate recommemlexl by the finance committee, settled the question. It was ruled and the ma jority sustained the ruling that no other senator could offer an amend ment changing the “substitute tor the substitute” adopted by the Sen- Uir. i Democratic senators protested tliej ruling vigorously. They contended tliat any senator should have the right to present amendments until some rate should he finally found ac ceptable. Republicans said such amend ments could be offered later after the bill was concluded in committee of whole and reported formally to the service. The committee recommended and tlie senate adopted a rate of 40 per- j cent on electric storage batteries and parts, in lieu of the original commit- tee recommendation of 45 percent and the house rate of P.0 percent. A mo- j tion by Senator Simmons of 15 per- cent was defeated, Senator McCum- j ber saying the committee proposed compensation for duty on lead, a bat- j terv component. The house rate of 25 percent on iron and steel anchors and forgings was adopted after defeat of a motion by Senator Robinson for a 15 percent rate. The committee rate of 72 cents per dozen plus the committee rate of 40 j percent ad valorem on fountain pens was adopted, the senate rejecting a motion l»y Senator Sheppard, demo crat, Texas, for 25 percent. in lieu of the duty it had proposed on building brick, the committee ma jority submitted a provisal that if any country proposed a tariff on this commodity imported from the Unit ed States an equal duty would be im posed upon brick imported from such countries. At the request of the democratic opponents of the original committee proposal, consideration of the substitute went over. The fight on the brick paragraph in the form recommended by the com mittee, opened last week when a memorial from Samuel Untermyer, counsel for the Lockwood investigat ing committee in New U ork, was pre sented to the senate urging removal of tariff duties on building materials in an effort to break an alleged com bination of dealers in such mater ials. The committee staved off a vote at that time and later recom mended its action as to the duty on brick. The committee majority was over turned by the senate on cyanide, which was restored to the free list and on magnesite on which duties were increased. In its fight to advance the rates on magnesite from $6.25 per ton to $1" per ton—the house rate—the tariff bloc had the support not only of some eastern republicans, but also of four democrats Broussard, Louisiana, j Ashrust, Arizona, Jones. New Mexico i and Pittmann, Nevada. The vote was 29 to 22. i In the vote to restore cyanide to the j free list the bloc drew the solid dem- i ocratio strength and also considerable republican support outside of its ow n j ranks. CANADA REFUSES TO ENTER WITH U. S. ON ST. LAWRENCE PROJECT Washington, May 29.—Although al most without precedent in the his tory of America's international re lations, the declination of the Cana dian government to embark at this time upon npgotatioos relative to the construction of the St. I.«awrence deeper waterway did not take officials here by surprise. For some time, it is understood, officials have been aware of a feeling of opposition in certain regions of the Dominion arising from a difference in the es timates of the desireability of the project entertained by conflicting in terests. There never has been any doubt in the official mind, it is said, that, ns relating to International waters, the project would be undertaken only in accordance with the recommenda tions of the joint high commission 1 the Ameriian-Canadian wateis. Those recommendatione, favoring the plan of a deeper waterway auggeated th" conclusion of a treaty as the only legal method of ^coompllahing the object Bought. li PAL OF PETERS (Continued from Page One) On the heels of this development It was learned that District Attorney Weeks had sent a messenger from White Plains to the office of the local district attorney asking if a man named Xathan llosenweig, alias Nat Moss, is the same man as the ope be ing sought, ltosenweig, under the name of Nat Ross, pleaded guilty in a llocal court in July of last year to a charge of extortion growing out of an alleged blackmailing plot, llosenweig escaped with a suspended sentence. His attorney at that time, was Fallon, the man now serving as counsel for i*eters' parents. ltosenweig. the authorities said, fcould not be found at hie home in the 'Bronx. At White Plains Sheriff Werner and District Attorney Weeks announced tonight they were trying to run down still another thread of possible evi dence." Close on the heels of a “tip" that investigation of Ward's story that lie luid driven refers to the scene of the shooting in his coupe would prove an other car had been used, the West chester authorities learned the name of an automobile dealer who, they were told, would shed much light on the slaying if he could be induced to 1 talk. Ward, in his original statement to the authorities said a window of his car had been shattered by a bullet in the exchange of fire with “Ross” and a man known only ns "Jack," whom he implicated in the blackmail plot with Peters and who, he declared, began firing at him after he had shot Peters. The coupe liore no traces of a pistol battle when Sheriff Werner first saw it, and lie expressed tlie be lief that none of the plate glass win dows recntly had been replaced. District Attorney Weeks and Sher iff Werner have been frankly skepti cal of Ward's statement that Peters was shot at the lonely spot near Ken sico Resevoir where the body was found. They suspect the killing oc curred elsewhere and that the body was taken there and thrown from the car. A “switched" deck story as well as a “switched" car theory continued to excite the interest of investigators of the killing today. State troopers who first took charge of Peters’ body in si led that a deck of cards found in the pockets was complete minus the joker. When the deck was examined by Sheriff Werner it was found that it contained a joker but was minus a straight diamond flush. The only possible motive that the authorities could furnish for such a switch was that someone interested in j giving tlie slain man a bad name as j a "crooked" gambler had made the exchange. searcn v.is being continued for the 1 young, well gowned woman who was j declared hy a New York waiter to hire him for $500 to slay Ward in his j New Rochelle home last Saturday. I This was hut a few hours after Ward j had been flensed from Jail on $50,000 l bail. No progress has so far been j made in the search. SAYS WARD SAFE IF KEEPS SILENT New York, May 29 —Max 11. .Steur, I prominent criminal lawyer, in an opin- 1 ion expressed today to a loral newspa- per, declared that if Walter S. Ward j ‘'is wise enough to keep silent” and no further details are brought out re garding the shooting of Clarence Pet ers "there is nothing in the criminal law of New York state under which he can be punished in any way for the confessed killing.” “If his story Is untrue. If it turns out that tlie man lie killed was not a block mailer,” said the lawyer, "what difference does that make? Suppose Ward is lying? What of it? U is al- j ways up to the state to prove that a crime was committed. In a capital case like tills, a man's confession must be backed by the testimony of corro borating witnesses. One can't be con victed of a capital offense in New York solely on a confession. His story can't be used against him.” Ward cannot be called upon to tes tify should his case come to trial, if he doesn't want to testify, and iiis re fusal. under the New York law can not be taken by the Jury as an evi dence of guilt. Mr. Steur pointed out. Moreover, the trial Judge must in struct the Jury to this effect. "There arc no chances of punishing Mr. Ward,” concluded Mr. Steur. “un less be talks too much. I don't Fee why he Is held under hail or anything else is don? to him as the case stards. The grand Jury cannot indict, and the state cannot go to trial unless corrob orating witnesses are produced.” IRISH NEGOTIATIONS STILL HANGING FIRE London, May 29—(By A. P.)—The 1 Irish negotiations have made nn ap parent progress since Saturday and! Winston Spencer Churchill, secretary for the colonies. Informed the House! of Commons today that they might continue for stveral days. The joint conference was postponed until tomorrow. This seemingly was 1 due to the long meeting of the British 1 cabinet committee on Ireland. 1 Mr. Churchill’s expected statement 1 to the House of Commons was post poned also, although he told the ho se that “owing to the urgency and gray- ity of the Issues parliament is entitled 1 to the fullest information." The members tried hard to get sortie 1 information from the government re garding its altitude toward the agreed Irish elections and other matters, but Mr. Churchill staved them off until lie i should make his formal statement. The colonial secretary satisfied their curiosity on cne point, assenting that the British commander of the forces In Ulster could not take the respon sibility of moving his men Into south ern territory to meet threatened at tacks except with instructions from the cabinet. He also revealed that the admiralty had sent vessels to London derry over Sunday at Sir James Craig's request. The Impression grows that the dif ference between the government and the Sinn Feiners amount to an acute crisis, particularly In view of Mr. Churchill's reference to the urgency and gravity of the Issues.

SPORTS1* 4 Great Entry List for Grand Circuit j at Syracuse Fair Boston, May 30—The management i of the New York State Fair centalnly.. should be well pleased with the entry received for the early closing classes for the Orand Circuit meeting at Sy racuse. The fact that more than 30 horses have been named for the 110.000 Em pire State event for 2.12 trotters is ample evidence that there are plenty of horses eligible to this class whose owners have confidence that they have a chance in this race, which is one of the feature events of the sea son. Not n few of those among the eli gible* have shown or are rated by good judges as likely to be able to tace in belter than 2.05, which ehowe how many owners there are who rate their candidates for honors ae being at least very near to the top close among race trotters. Ths 2.01 and 2.05 classes also filled well. The fsst trotting classes promise to be espec ially interesting this se* son. At a matter of fact it has been some time since there have been so many trotters pointed for the rsce,^ who at this season lookei' to bs as high class as are those of thit year. From Cleveland come very encour- 1 aging reports about ths three-year old trotter Peter Karl, by Peter the Croat, 2.07 1-4. This youngster was in the stable of Walter Co* last year, and while he was rather alow in get ling down to business, was good at the end of the season and earned a pace record of 2.10 1-2. lie has already been heating 2.10 and has shown so much real speed In his work thut he is now being rated a* a real candidate for three-year-old honors. The Karl is a brother to Justin Cirl, 2.07 1-2, that raced well on the Crand Circuit for Co* a num ber of years ago.

Story by Rea! Crook The familiar “game” that has cost nearly everyone a penny or a thou sand,—the oil business—furnishes 'the means for one of the clever sit uations in “The Stan Under Cover,” the Universal special attraction which brings Herbert Rawlinson to the Strand Theatre today in a star ring role. The hero of “The Man Under Cov *er” is an out-and-out crook. He went back to the old home town aft er having once been driven out by suspicion. He found the whole town, including: his sweetheart, about to lose all their savings to a couple of crooked oil speculators.—Adv. Tale of Mythical Treasures on Kennebec The following clipping from the Utica Saturday Globe tells us some news that would be rather startling if true. Coming immediately after the treasure of Capt. Brown of Au gusta. recently exploited, it is inter esting, to say the least. As drifting for shad on the Ken nebec above the bridge is illegal, we would call the attention of the state to the infringement of the law, were it not for the fact that they would have all kinds of trouble in locating Warren Taylor, the discoverer of the treasure. PART OF CAPTAIN KIDD’S TREASURE IS FOUND ON AN ISLAND IN MAINE Goblet Made of Pewtef Dug Up by Boatman—Fisherman, Cast on Island in Kennebec, Unearths Piece of Loot—Age Is Vouched For—Quality Far Superior to That Now Made—Wrapped in Old Fiber Paper Part of Captain Kid’s buried treas ure has been found. At least that is what Warren Tay lor of Farmingdale, Me., firmly be lieves. Taylor was driven ashore some days ago on Brown's Island, In the Kennebec river, while out drifting for shad. Hunting for drift wood with which to start a fire to warm him self, he came upon the remains of an ancient barrel. Inside he found a pewter mug, or goblet, wrapped in the remains of an exceedingly old fiber paper of the kind that has not been madfe for more than 100 years. The goblet also, according to anti quarians who have seen it, is old, and of a quality of pewter far bet ter than any made these days. For many years now Brown’s Island has been the centre of a score of legends about Captain Kidd, who is supposed to have used parts of the rugged Maine coast for hiding from his many pursuers. From time to time during the last 50 or GO years there have been searches of the island. Parties have been made tip in Portland and other Maine cities and even as far away as Boston to search the place. The pewter goblet found by War ren is the first definite result of these searches and the first find of its sort ever made. Captain Kidd is known to have buried large quantities of booty taken from more than 100 ships sunk by him and his freebooters in various places. Some years ago a party of American adventurers re ported the discovery of some ancient Spanish doubloons and other coins in a worm-eaten oaken chest they found in the sands on a bay oft the coast of Florida. Other expeditions had been made in an effort to find Kidd’s gold in places as widely sundered as Indian 1 liver, Florida, and the sand dunes back in Barnegat, N. J.

Mathilde May and May Not Marry Her Swiss Sweetheart Chicago, May 29—Mystery and the possibility of a court battle today en tered into the romance of Mathilde McCormick, 17-year-old daughter of Harold McCormick, millionaire head of the International Harvester com pany and Max Oscr, hr- Swiss riding master fiance, whose age has been variously given at from 45 to 59. Despite the announcement in New York by the granddaughter of John r>. Rockefeller that she would sail for Kurope tomorrow, presumably to join Oscr in preparations for their early wedding, her father here asserted that iiis daughter would not sail. “The despatches are a mistake.” he said. "My daughter is not sail ing.” Asked how that affected the wed ding plans, he replied: "Not at all. The wedding plans re main just as they were.” Mr. McCormick refused to elaborate on his statement. Meanwhile a fresh obstacle to the marriage was seen in a court move by which an order that made Mr. McCormick the guardian of his daughter might be vacated. A echnicality arose today when it was revealed that Mrs. Edith Rocke feller McCormick, who divorced Mr. McCormick several months ago, was not given what she regarded as prop er legal notice. According to the law it was said both parents must bo serv ed with notice of the petition for guardianship. This was brought fi> the attention of probate Judge Henry Horner by counsel for Mrs. McCormick late to day. Charles S. Cutting, counsel for Mrs. McCormick, notified Judge Hor ner that his client had not been noti fied of the action and requested that she bo given proper notice. Mrs. McCormick was served with the notice on Saturday according to Mr. Cutting, so that the three days’ notice required by the rules of the court will not he had until Wednes day. ‘■-No order of record has been en tered in the probate court,” Mr. Cut tinsr said, and Mr. McCormick is not the legal guardian of Mathilde. When T informed Judge Horner that my cli ent had not been given notice, he stopped the order and it never was entered though tho attempt was made.” ‘‘Mrs. McCormick has been given proper notice,” Judge Horner said, "and Wednesday morning we shall see whether or not she objects to the appointment of Mr. McCormick as Math lido’s guardian. Should she ob ject I will set. the matter for hearing at some future date.” Mr. McCormick’s object in seeking appointment as his daughter’s guar dian was to clear the way for the marriage because of a provision of the Swiss law which was said to make the consent of both parents, or the legal guardian, necessary to the marriage of a minor. Hold Trio in Killing Of Tennessee Woman Celina, Tcnn., May 29.—Two men.

BIG LEAGUES ARE NOT LIABLE UNDER ANTI-TRUST LAW Washington, May 29—Professional baseball as conducted by teams operating under the national agree ment is not interstate commerce and the organizations forming the vari ous leagues cannot be prosecuted under the Sherman act as combina tions in Restraint of commerce, the supreme court today decided in a case brought by the Baltimore club of the defunct federal league. Contending that it had been the victim of a conspiracy by which the officials of the Federal League had “sold out” to the National and the American leagues, the Baltimore club entered the federal court at Philadelphia, but permitted its suit to lapse pending negotiations with representatives of organized baseball for a satisfactory settlement. Fail ing. it instituted a suit under the Sherman Act in the courts of the District of Columbia, claiming triple damages for the losses it had suf fered when the Federal league dis banded. A verdict for $SO.OOO was obtained before a jury in the supreme court of the district, which was trebled un der the Sherman Act and made $240,000 but this was set aside by the district court of appeals. The opinion of the supreme court, delivered by Justice Holmes, held that games by teams in the National agreement “are purely state affairs.” The transportation of players was described as "a mere incident not the essential thing.” “That to which it is incident, the exhibition, although made for money,” it was added, “would not be called trade or commerce in the commonly accepted use of those words.” “Personal effort” constituting the professional game is not "related to production” the justice said and “is not a subject of commerce.” “That which in its consummation is not commerce,” he declared, "does not become commerce among the states because the transportation that we have mentioned takes place.” The contracts by which the Balti more club alleged professional ball players were made “chattel slaves” was given approval by the court which declared “the restrictions by contract that prevented the plaintiff (the Baltimore club) from getting players to break their bargains" was not an interference with commerce. Patient Dies Result Scalding'—Attendant Held for Manslaughter Salem, Mass., May 21*.—Flank Bridges of Montvillc, Me., attendant at the Danvers State Hospital was held in $2/x)0 bail at the local district court by Judge George It. Sears on a charge of manslaughter by means of criminal negligence in causing the death by scalding, of Earnest Wil liamson of Middleboro, a patient at the hospital. According to Dr. Har vey M. Watkins, a member of the hospital staff, who swore out the complaint, Bridges put Williamson in a bath tub Saturday to give him his hath, turned on the water and "went off leaving the water run ning." When Bridges returned live minutes later Williamson \^as im mersed in the scalding water. He was 1 moved and given prompt medi cal aid, but died four hours later. According to Dr. Watkins, Bridges broke all rules and regulations.

Dublin Sees Hitch In London Negotiations Dublin, May 29.—(By A. p.)—The postponement until Friday of the Dail Kircann meeting, fixed for Wcdnes- cay is interpreted as indicating an unexpected hitch in the I.nndon ne gotiations.

Ralph Burnll of Newport in Race Game for 32 Years Few people, except those intimately connected with horse racing, or who have been followers of the sport, are able to realize the position which Ralph Eurrill, the trainer recently acquired by L. H. Powers for his twro horses, occupies in the world of light harness racing, says the lloulton Times. The fact that for the past four years Mr. Burrill has been second only to Walter Cox himself in the Grand Circuit trainers stable where he personally handled many of the big money winners that have featured racing on the big circuits during the period, speaks volumes for the veter an trainer’s ability, but a knowledge of his life, which has been filled with horses since he was a mere boy easi ly shows how he came to occupy the position which he left to come to Houlton. Born in Newport, Maine, forty eight years ago, Mr. Burrill received his knowledge of horses and horse tacing from his father, A. N. Burrill, who was one of the premier horse trainers of the State and New Eng land at that time. A. N. Burrill was a member of the old school of light harness horse racers to which be longed men whose names are re membered by old time horse lovers. Having charge of the G. J. Shaw sta ble at 11 art la ml be raced horses on Maine tracks in the days of A. W. Brackett of Pittsfield; Sam Jacobs of Skowhegan: Walter Blaisdell of Burnham; Ed Getcliell ami Sylvester Witham of Waterville; I,nn Scribner of Portland; John Haines of Old Orchard and many others. Ralph Burrill sat behind a horse in his first race when he was sixteen years of age in Petaluma, California, while yet a school boy, and he has driven horses ever since. Following a short period in Cali fornia, the Burrils returned to Skow hegan, Maine. Finishing school Ralph went into the racing game with his father and drove his first race on Maine tracks at Exeter in 3S90, win ning a three minute race with a mare called Bess, tlm fastest heat being in "d 1-4, and winning the 2.4ft class with a pacer called Hick Irwin In -.40 flat. "In those days,” said Mr. Burrill, “those horses looked like world beat ers but they would be sadly out of place today and would not even lo able to a place in the farmers class." I.eaving Skowhegan, Mr. Burrill spent a year at Tingsbury, Mass., with the Hr. Fitzgerald stable and' then he came to Bangor where he trained horses for over ” 3-4), Direct Braden (2.30 1-4), ami many others. During this time he had under his care Con stantine (2.32 3-4) and Ambulator (-•2-mile oval for cars of IS.'! cubic inches piston dis placement, averaging 102.05 miles per hour, shutting off on all the turns with his Duesenberg. His av erage for 30 miles, however, was 99.00 miles per hour and he will start beside Murphy. The third car j in the first row will be Ralph De j Raima's cream-colored Duesenberg. The best the darling of the speed J fans could do was 90.05 miles per hour. J.eon Duray headed the list of Frontenac pilots and will be the fii'st car in the second row. His average was 99.25 miles per hour. This is his first start at Indianapolis. Ralph Mulford in a Frontenac was next with an average of 09.20, which was better than Roscoe Sarles, his team mate, could do. Sarles just arrived at the track with his car and im I mediately toured the 30 miles at an average of 08 miles per hour flat. The third row will be made up of Jerry Wonderlich In a Duesenberg, Frank KUiott in a Reach Special, and Ira Vail In a Disteel-Duesenberg. Deter DePaolo, Frontenac, Cliff Du rant, Durant Special, and Tom Alley, Monroe, will make up the fourth row. Then will come I. P. “Red” Fetterman Iq a Duesenberg, Ora Haibe in a companion car, and Rora I,. Corum in a Monroe for the fifth row. K. G. ‘‘Cannoball" Baker. Fron tenac, Joe Thomas, Duesenberg, and Wilbur D’Alene, Monroe, will make up the sixth row, and W. Douglas Hawkes driving an Knglish Bentley, the only foreign car to attempt to qualify, will be the first car in the seventh row. Neither the two French Ballots to be driven by Jules Goux or Eddie Hearne, nor the French Peugeot of Howdy Wilcox were ready to qualify today. Tommy Milton was another prominent driver who did not wheel his car to the course. These and other experienced pilots were con tent to work on their cars and will qualify before race day. Ten cars are yet to qualify for the race. Cony Racqueters Find Gardiner Easy The Cony High Tennis team won an easy victory from Gardiner High yes terday afternoon on the State park court, taking every match and losing but few of their games. Haszard. the diminutive Gardiner player put up a whale of a game for a youngster, however, and Is sure to be heard from lRter on. Cony entered her matches minus the services of George Randall, who was runner-tip at the Bowdoin Interscholastics. His place in ths doubles was taken by Donald Johnson who played a very good game and worked well with his partner. Fred Ellis, playing his first match on the Cony team showed some pretty tennis and Is alnost assured of a place on the team next year. The summary: DOUBLES D. Johnson and M. Hewitt of Cony defeated Pickering and Hazzard of Gardiner, 6-0; 6-2. SINGLES M. Hewitt of Cony defeated Skillin of Gardiner, 6-1; 6-3. Johnson of Cony defeated Pickering of Gardiner. 6-1; 6-0. F. Ellis of Cony defeated Hazzard of Gardiner, 6-1; 6-1. ALLEGED STRONG ABBOTT TEAM PROVES SORRY FIZZLE WITH CONY HIGH AN EASY WINNER, H-2 ___■■ _ Cocky over their 3-0 win over Cony last Saturday, the Abbott boys came to town yesterday with visions of a repeat, but alas there was no repeat. Cony, stinging' with the memory of the aforementioned whitewash, administered a sound threshing to the visitors, 14 to 2. Roland, the star moundsman of Abbott, who has been getting away with the iron man stunt thiB spring, apparently attempted this pastime once too often. lie lingered b.t four frames and during that time was touched rather freely with a tally of four runs His successor, or rather successors, for there were legions of ’em, fared even worse and lovers of real baseball were out o’ luck as the remainder of the game was a roaring farce. Cony scored almost at will. Some idea of the contest may be gained by a tesume of the fifth inning. In this canto Jack Salford opened with a searing single through the box. Soup Austin popped to Hermon. Then the parade started. Brennan strolled. Hughes took one in the ribs, Albison also sunbled, Ellis sneaked one by the short infield and Salford counted. By way of variety Roderick whiffed. Then the march was resumed, when Bush was issued a free ticket. Far rington took one in tile hip, Safford walked, Austin dittoed and all the while tlie runs were dribbling over t lie pan. Then everybody sighed when Hon Brennan failed to reach first on his tap to t lie box. There were other innings like the foregoing, but what’s the use? The one redeeming feature of the afternoon was the row of strikeouts hung up by Don Brennan. He fell short one of an even score and was well supported by Soup Austin, al though the big backstop is suffering from a bum knee.

It was the first de feat for the Smith team this season. The score stood 13 to 13 in the fifth inning, but Farrington pushed across three in the sixth which proved enough to win the game despite Smith's rally in the same inning which put one man across the rub ber. The work of both pitchers, and the two-bagger slammed by C. Hurd of Farrington featured the contest. The batteries: Farrington, Haskell and Hurd; Smith, Daniels and Morton.

The fight was scheduled to go 20 rounds, but Fox was so badly punished that the referee stopped the bout in the 12th.

Don Brennan of Cony High dupli cated his high strikeout mark estab lished against Brunswick at Capitol Park on .May 17, when he fanned 19 Abbo' men in Cony's walkaway yes terday. Don now has an average, of better than It strikeouts a game, and has been touched for an average of less than fi hits with the 12 hits gar nered when he loosened at Lewiston figured in the total. The epidemic of circuit-clouting is spreading throughout the majors with all the rapidity of the ‘-flu.” Yester day's game without at least one home, was scarce. Ken Williams and Rogers Hornsby are now tied with 13 round-trips apiece, and Miller of the Athletics is but one behind with 12 to his credit. Ray Buker's defeat at Harvard in the two-mile run came after as thrill ing a race ns ever was staged in this event in or out of the intercollegiates. Overhauled by Higgins o Columbia in the last 10 years down the stretch, linker met defeat in wha. looked from the stands like a dead heat at 9 mins., 25 1-5 secs. Like the spoilsman he is, he extended his hand 1o the winner after the race was over. There was one hip disappointment! at the Howdoin interscholastic games on Saturday. Farrington the Cony High star did not compete. The Au gusta bo> won both the century and In long dashes at the University of Maine meet, and it .would have been interesting to see what kind of a race he would put pu against Simmons the Huntington school str who won dual victories in the sprints on Whittier field. It is said that Coach Thompson kept Farrington out of the game to I’lay on the ball team against Abbott school. Father tough on a sure medal winner.—Portland Express. i It was Frank Farrington's own do rsire to represent the Red and White on the diamond Saturday, and he and Coach Thompson ate heartily in accord on the subject. Cony lias lost but one game of ball this year—and lids to a private school, suffering defeat last week through inability to solve the offerings of Roland of Abhott school. 1 Frank's speed on the bases, and fine fielding in the majority of his games make him a valuable man on the nine, and a steadying influence for his team. Johnny Brown, who is matched at Portland Friday evening with Artie Soliiff. former national amateur cham pion. knocked out K. O. Heroine of Ber lin, X. H., in ten rounds last Friday. I It was the first time I.eroux had been counted out in 46 battles. J. Harris of 1iie Red Pox had a big day in the second gamp against the Senators yesterday, connecting safely three times out of four at bat, one of his clouts going for two bnses. A year ago today, Ken. Williams, playing against the White Sox, landed for his fifth homer in four consecu tive days. One of the Journal staff dropped in on Ned Lee of Augusta over tlie week end at his Troutdale cabins on lake Moxle. Ned and his partner have a fine layout, are exceedingly courteous and obliging, and are showing some mighty good sport to visiting fisher- i men. Under the tutelage of Lew Fol- I snm, the guide who caught Mrs. Lee’s "bobbed salmon" last week, the K. J. scribbler brought back a nice string of lake trout and salmon. Williams and Niles Play Doubles Today Newton, Mass., May 29—R. Norris Williams, 2nd., former national cham pion and Nathaniel W. Niles will play Lawrence B. Rice and Irving G. Wright for the Massachusetts State tennis doubles championship tomor row on the courts of the Newton Cen- I ter tennis club. In today’s semi-finals Rice and Wright eliminated Raymond B.

CONY WILL SEND BIG TRACK SOUAD TO BATES MEET Coach Thompson of Cony High will divide his time this week be tween preparation for the Gardiner game Saturday and grooming a big squad to send to Lewiston the same day to compete at the Bates’ Inter scholastic meet. In Howell and Foster, Cony has two very good niilers that should again take points for their school this week. They both ran splendid races at Brunswick last week against fast competition, and it is possible that they will finish higher up in the scoring than in the two proceeding meets. Frank Farrington will probably not appear in a track uniform Sat urday, as he is anxious to get a chance against Cony's downriver rivals. Cony will be classed in the senior division, comprising schools having 200 pupils or over. The small school class is limited to schools of registration below the 200 mark. Private secondary schools are classed with the larger schools. In order to conform to the State Principals association rules the regu lation making l!l years the age limit for competition also has been made applicable to the Bates meet. The program besides separating competition for large and small schools, contains two events" lor novices from either class school, and also two limited weight events. Points won in novice events may be counted toward either senior or jun ior trophy. Smalt schools may enter senior events if they so desire. The first event on the program will be started at 2 o'clock. The order of events is so arranged that the competition in 1021. which included .'11 events, was completed in a little over two hours. Kntries have been received from Kdward Little, Gardiner, Morse of Bath, Portland, Sanford, Leavitt In stitute, Lincoln Academy of Da mar iseotta and Maine Central Institute of Pittsfield in tlie class for larger scliools and assurances that 1 leer ing, Hebron, Cony High and Norway also will send teams.

Such is not the case with Squir- j icl Island at present. Many of the old-timers are here for the summer. Many people came down for over Memorial Bay. Fuller Ingraham of the Fuller llol way company of Augusta came down Saturday, to stay over Sunday with the lest of his family who are here for the Memorial day vacation. The J Ingrahams have a member of the Cony faculty visiting them. Miss M. I.ittlc, who will be here for the holi days. E. C. Hendce of Augusta, is here to open up his cottage for the season. Mr. Ilendee is always one of the first to be here, and it would seem unnat ural without him. Mrs. Darling and daughter, Rachel were down for the weekend, to get their cottage ready for the season. Smith S. Randall, of the Augusta Lumber Co., came down with his son. Smith, Jr. for over Sunday. James Merrill, and George Randall are down until Wednesday to open up the Randall cottage for the season, j Mr. and Mrs. Eonncli of Ma'-sa- j cliusetts are down foi* a few days. One of the six tennis courts is in perfect condition and the other five are to be put into condition as soon as possible. These courts are six of the best in Maine, -is is proved by the fact that the Maine State Champion ship Tournament has been at Squir rel for the last two years. A new cement walk has been laid from the ball field to the spring pump, and from the pump to the Post Office. Every year the Corpora tion puts in two or three new walks and now the Island's walks are mostly cement, the old wooden ones being done away with. The steamer, Virginia, lands at the wharf twice a day and the Norman 2nd comes in aoout o.uu p. m. daily also carry ing freight and passengers. The weather at Squirrel Island is ideal at this time of year. Saturday it was father cool, especially over the water, but Sunday turned out to be very warm, with a slight breeze all the time. There was once a group of wealthy men sitting on the piazza of a hotel, I overlooking the Bay of Naples. These men were talking over beauti ful places. One said that he thought that the Bay they were overlooking was the most beautiful sight he had seen. Another said that he thought one of the islands in this bay was a paradise. Then an Italian Naval Officer spoke up and said, ••Yes, all these places are beautiful, and per haps the most beautiful places you have seen, but I have been to a plaee that beats the Bay of Naples all to thunder and that is just outside of Boothbay Harbor in Maine, U. 8., on a moonlight night, overlooking Mouse Island. Southport and Squirrel Island." WAYNE Interesting Memorial services were conducted at both churches Sunday. May 28th. At the Methodist church, two appropriate selections were ren dered- by a male quartet, also a spe cial song by the choir. The other eonge were in harmony with the day. 43 BV» ‘lo: Railroads and Steamboats MAINE CENTHAL HAILKOau Eastern Standerd Tim* Train* Leave Auouita voa fSOU^i **33 m 1-T Bar Harbor |1 1U 1 Tm *9 H DO a m ‘Ml p w t2 44 p m M "4 p m P r NraYmV M Up *4 f m rartlM 111) 1« a m 44 p m t 4 H pm 14 P m r Rockland. 14 a m Skovhefan B4f*Ja m Sn Gardiner I a m ♦2 44 p in l 44 p m '4 in In p m S» John M2 4» a m Warm ill* M2 49a m l I1 •4 Oia m m tfl 40 p m. l**‘ Dailr Dailr **repl ]1 j:ac«-pt Stindav and M"P I» C.

Wheat sudenly became a drug on the market in Chicago today, burdening owners and smashing prices at the last more than ten cents a bushel as compared with earlier in the board of trade session. Nearly 650 carloads had arived here today and with pros pective further heavy receipts tomor row and next day adding to a big ac cumulation already at hand, seemad to put an overwhelming weight on prices. Thg market defied unstable at 2 1-8 fonts to 6 cents net decline with May and July both 118a to llkl and Sept. 116J to 116*. Corn finished J to 1| cents down and oats off g to ij cents. In provisions, the outcome varied from unchanged figures to 1” cents higher. Although It was definitely known be fore the opening that new arrivals of wheal here today would exceed 500 carloads, the fact that deliveries on May contracts, 595.0M0 bushels were of less magnitude than had generally been looked for led to a temporary up turn In prices. Talk about Germany gettin ga billion dollar loan tended al so to stimulate buying on the part of traders who were still hanging on hopes that by some fairly miraculous chance the final settlement of May wheat contracts would force the wheat market into wild jumps in price. leading holders of wheat were quick to take advantage of the tran sient rise of the market, and began to unload while there was a good oppor tunity. This change of front, how ever. had a boomerang effect as soon as the rank and file of dealers grew aware of the situation. A general selling movement was precipitated and the market was found to be hare of any support except miscellaneous shorts. Then prices fell almost inert, and closed at the bottom level of the day. Corn and oats were dragged down by wheat. Provision;! averaged a little higher, chiefly as a result of lard buying as cribed to foreigners. Chicago Cattle Market Chicago. May 2?.

"Music, however, the most obstract, and therefore the most unlimited form of expression, must be skimmed through once or very occasionally, in a manner that can give, even to the most discerning lis tener, only a very superficial idea of what it contains. “In all great music there are subtleties of emotional value and of beautiful sound that comes into being only when it is understood through and through.

Auto Case Heard at Municipal Court Octava Michaud, Public Cap Driver, Pound Guilty of Operating Car While Under Influence of Liquor— Takea Appeal from Sentence Operating an automobile while under the influence of liquor was the charge that Octave Michaud, a public car driver of this city, faced Monday morning when he was ar- j raigned before Judge Robert A. Cony at the Augusta 'municipal court. The respondent pleaded not guilty, but after carefully consider* lug the testimony introduced Judge Cony found him guilty and pro nounced sentence of $100 fine and costs of $10 or 30 days in jail. Mr. Michaud took an appeal to this sen tence. furnishing bonds in the sum of $1:30 for his appearance at the September term of the Kennebec superior court. Police Officers Levi Cyr and Mi chael Bolduc gave testimony in sup port of the allegation that Mr. Mi chaud was in an intoxicated con dition while driving his automobile Saturday evening on Water street. Officer Cyr testified that the man was so intoxicated that he went to sleep in the automobile and that Michaud staggered down the stairs at City hall when he was being arrested by Officer Cyr. Officer Bolduc testified that he had seen Michaud .about 5 o'clock that afternoon and noticing Michaud's condition, had engaged a man to drive him home, lie had told Mi chaud not to come back on the street that day. In defense, Mr. Michaud, although admitting that ho was feeling good at that time, stated that all he had been drinking was light beer, and that he had drank nothing of a more intoxicating nature. Judge Cony in pronouncing sen tence informed Michaud that he would lose his operator's license when the record of the case is re ported. I 33 GUERNSEY CATTLE FROM KENNEBEC COUNTY SHIPPED TO MONTANA A shipment of 33 pure-bred Guern sey cattle consigned to the Plains .Guernsey Breeders’ association of Plains, Montana, left this city Monday morning in a special express car at tncehed to the 9:30 west-bound pas senger train. These cattle had been purchased in Kennebec Valley by 'George If. Webster, chief of the divi sion of dairying of Montana, and were shipped In charge of E. F. Morris president of the association. The cattle were bought from a num I her of farms in this vicinity. Ayers farm, owned by W. P. Ayers sold 12 head including three bulls which are to head herds of pure bred cattle in Montana. Seven were purchased from T. Drummond of Sidney, four from l] M. K. Goodhue, four from D. C. Web ster of Albion, and three from K. S. Godlng of Monmouth. There was al so included in the shipment on'' high ly bred bull, a son of Langwater t'hieftan, from the Kandholm farm, Wells Beach. Mr. Webster said Monday at the station just after the train had dc parted, "The purchase of these cat tie in Kennebec county left several thousand dollars in Kennebec county and it should stimulate interest in the production of the same kind of cat tic.” "This Is the second shipment of this j kind that I have made and the total I amount of money left among the far mers of Kennebec county for the two shipments is nearly $20,000.'* "A great deal of interest is being ’manifested by the farmers of Montana in better bred dairy cattle and par ticularly Guernsevs. The dairy work G coming to the front and within the n. \t two months several pure bred bull associations will be formed in quite a number of localities. Mon tana produced in 1921 about 12,000, 000 pounds of butter which is moro than twice the amount produced five years ago. The farmers are also com ing to a realisation that diversified farming is the paying hting." Mr. Webster said that the reason for coming to this State was that the cattle in the pure-bred herds here were very healthy; in fact, be said thr he has shipped from a number of different states and the cattle of Maine are the most satisfactory in this regard. The expenses connected with the the trip and the railroad fare for the animals will add nearly $76 to the cost of each animal. While here, M.. Webster has been materially assisted by Mr. Ayers and his sons, who have taken him about tho country and helped him in every way possible. DENTAL CLINIC STILL VERY BUSY At tho last two dental clinics 13 children were treated. All the drug gists In the city have generously don ated tooth brushes for the use of the children. Mrs. W. E.

Temperatures have continued to be fool. The condition of the soil has improved and planting and sowing have made good progress. Sowing of spring wheat, oats and barley has been going on rapidly and usual acreages seem probable in all areas. The planting of potatoes while somewhat behind hand for the season, has mad«jgoad progress during the week. In Aroostook county the farm ers are hard at work in the fields and In some localities planting will be completed by June 1 but in others not over 20 per cent has been done. Much fertilizer lias been coming in later in the season than usual but many farm ers are not financially able to buy it. It is too early to estimate the acre age to be planted accurately but the prevailing opinion puts it at from 30 to 100 per cent of that of last year. Meadows and pastures have been improving fast and it now looks as if an excellent hay crop is likely to be produced. Some fields show injury from the drought of last year and from winter killing but grasses and clovers are now starting well and mak ing a good growth. Except in Maine, where the apple trees have not bloomed heavily, the prospect for good crops of the tree fruits are good. One exception is the j light bloom on the Baldwin trees which is noticeable in all areas and means a light yield of this variety. Another exception is that peaches were hurt in southern New England by the ice storm of the winter and in many localities by frosts in April. All tree fruits are setting well as a rule. An increased acreage of strawberries is reported this year and the condition of the plants is most promising in all sections. Blueberries are also in tine condition, especially in Maine, but re ports of winter killing of raspberries and blackberries ha\e come in from many quarters. Cranberry bogs in Massachusetts look exceedingly well as a rule though there has been some winter killing, not extensive, of dry bogs. Tlie condition of the tobacco seed beds in the Connecticut valley is good and transplanting is about to begin. Onions in the same region are all up and looking well although some dam age has been done by the corn maggot which will thin the stand a little. Livestock is generally in good health though in northern areas many i animals are still thin due to scarcity of hay and other feeds and the short pasturage of the spring. They’ should speedily gain in weight from now on. The supply of farm labor is ample generally except in the onion and to bacco region of the Connecticut valley a considerable scarcity is reported to exist. V. A. SANDERS, S. D.

The remainder of the program will include a duet by Mars tecs York and Frances Edwards, "Father's Musket, Brown and Busty”; readings by Charles AA'hit ing and Mrs. Lottie York and an ad dress by Hon. B. F. Maher of Au gusta. Only three veterans are left at East AVinthrop, Messrs. Freeman, Spear and Jackson, but the AVorld AVar boys of the vicinity Join with them in their exercises and the town's people show appreciation by attending and assisting In all ways •possible. Arthur Brainard, who has served so faithfully in years past, has charge of the program. His devotion to the work has made the East AA'in-* tlirop exercises a success in years past. The exercises will close with a prayer at the cemetery and the dec orating o^tho graves. At AVinthrop village the line of march will form at 1 o'clock with the AVinthrop Band, school children, members of the Relief Corps, Albert H. Frost Post, G. A.

When the article for appro priating a sum of money for the ob servance of Memorial Day was taken up at the annual town meeting last March, Mr. Carleton stated that the G. A. It. had hesitated to ask for any assistance in observing the day. The obvious reason was the light attend ance in the past few years at these Memorial exercises. This note is touched again in a circular placed in the hands of Winthrop people, which says: "it is hoped that the people of Winthrop and vicinity will show that they have ‘not forgotten,’ by attend ing these solemn ceremonies. It is a sacred day. Sacred to the memories of ‘Those who sleep in those little green tents whose curtains never outward swing,’ who gave their all, their very lives, 'That Government of the people, by the people and for the people should not perish.’ If you have real red American blood flowing in your veins you will postpone pleasure, at least until after the sol emn services of the day are conclud ed.” It seems a pity that such an appeal as this from these old defenders of the country should be necessary. Al bert 11. Frost Dost, a few years ago, formed a long line as it marched on Memorial Day. It now numbers only 10: M. W. Freeman, commander; B. T. Carleton, past department com mander; William Downs, William House, Henry Stevens, Cyrus Wood, Virgil Jackson, Frank Davies, G. C. Goodhue, and Gustavus Thompson. The Women's Belief Corps has as sisted in preparing the exercises through the following committee: Monument—Mrs. Carleton, Mrs. Maxfield, Mrs. Joy; hall—Mrs. Kille French, Mrs. Moffatt; mound—Mrs. Ingham, Mrs. Hayward: church—Mrs. Towle, Mrs. Hiiulhaugh, Mrs. Wheel er; buttonaires—Mrs. Haines, Airs.

TO DESTROY GYPSY MOTH The State department of agriculture Monday received from the United States Parasite Laboratory at Melrose Highlands, Mass., 121 colonies of par asites which will be liberated because they are effective in destroying the gypsy moth. The parasite is a tiny fly -with a long name of Latin origin known as Anastatus Bifasciatus. The large sounding name is used because the entomologists of both Europe and America can both work with these littlo creatures with a common un derstanding, whereas if both attempt ed to use their own language there might be some diffculty. The United States Department of Agriculture has been importing and breeding these parasites for several years. The part which the State de partment plays is to locate the gypsy moth colonies of sufficient size to make the parasite planting when the colonics are received. Scouting work of this nature has been carried on this spring by the State department in the line of towns which takes in Hartford, Livermore, Leeds, Wayne, Readfield, Fayette, -Manchester, Sidney, Vassal boro and Windsor. The department plans to make the present parasite planting in these towns and a little later more j parasites will be received to liberate in other places. Inasmuch as the State of Maine covers a large territory and the gyp sy moth infestations are as far north as Dover-Foxcroft, it is almost impos sible to raise the necessary funds to paint out the egg clusters which will be laid in the fall of the year, so it is believed that the next best proposi tion is the parasite work. While no definite promises can be made there are hopes for results in I view of the fact tut other states have handled insect pests by means of this work. C. W. Collins, entomologist assist ant at the Melrose Highlands Labora tory, has been here in consultation with Erlon L. Xewdick. the chief of the Division of Plant Industry, rela tived to this work, and the closest kind of co-operation has been assur ed the State officials, j MADISON MAN j AFTER PARDON A petition for t rardon of John (Vollo of Madison, who is serving a sentence in the Somerset county jail at Skowhegan. for the unlawful sale of Intoxicating liouor, was received at j the Department of State Monday.

It is j believed that this photoplay will go down in film history as one of the classi productions. Fairbanks’ interpretation of the dashing and impulsive D'Artagnan will present him to his admirers in a new light, and the work of the all star cast that supports him will in sure satisfaction to all photoplay go ers. Douglas Fairbanks broke twelve rapiers in dueling scenes during the filming of “The Three Musketeers.” Edward Knoblock, famed drama tist. estimates that he wrote one hun dred thousand words in preparing the screen adaptation of "The Three Musketeers” for Douglas Fairbanks.

William Vaughan who has been pas tor of the Universalist church for the past year and a half. He gave a his reasons, his other church duties and his farm which he maintains In East Belfast. His parishioners, however, were unanimous in their protest against such a step and every en deavor will be made to retain him. Extension of his summer vacation will be made if necessary for the parish is most anxious to hold him. Mr. Vaughan is pastor of the Trinity Re formed church which began its sum mer services yesterday and he for merly preached in Swanville. He stated that all these duties together with his farm work were more than lie could do, combined with pastoral work, but the parishioners will not let him go if it is possible to keep him. He was formerly pastor of the Knox Memorial Dutch Reformed church of New York, coming to Belfast about 18 years ago where he has since re sided. He is a very able speaker and has had a large attendance every Sunday during his pastorate in the Universalist church. The veterans of the Thomas H. Marshall Boost, Cl. A. It., only 13 in their fast thinking ranks, were the honored guests at the morning service Sunday in the Federated church. Rev. W. F. Skerrye preaching a very able and eloquent sermon. The veterans under the ocmmnnd of James Dunton, commander of the Bost, were escorted by Camp A. E. Clark, Sons of Vet erans, Frank Downes, commander, the Ladies of the G. A. R., the Auxiliary of Camp Clark and the ilmma White Barker Tent, Daughter:! of Veterans. The guests occupied the front pews and the remainder of the church was also filled. A more able sermon has never been preached in Belfast than that which Rev. Mr. Skerrye prepar ed for these heroes of 1861. His words of praise for their bravery and his words of comfort and cheer for their declining years were touching. He also spoke of the heroism of the boys of 1317-18 who fought for freedom and the right. The sermon was one of the finest Mr. Skrrye has preached since coming to Belfast some months ago. Special music was furnished by the choir with a solo by Mrs. C. W. Wescott. School Music Festival Scores Great Success Belfast. Mo., May 23—(Special) The first Music Festival given by the students of the Belfast and rural schools, under the direction of su pervisor of music, Prof. Melville E. Chase, was an unqualified success and will be made an annual event, taking the place, so far as Belfast is concerned, of the AVahlo-Knox Fes tival which for some five or six years was an event of the school'year. With a chorus of 2.10, including a quota from the rural schools and from the Peirce and McEellan schools, and assisted by Miss Char lotte Knowlton. soprano and Miss Elizabeth K. Kittredge, reader, grad uates of last June, and by McKeen’s orchestra, a delightful program was Riven under the personal direction of Prof. Chase. The big chorus rendered America’s Message, in which the boys’ voices sang America as the girls carried the counter composition, a most effective arrangement and showing what the High and Grammar schools can do. It also gave The Clang of the Forge and Chadwick s Joshua, closing the program with the Netherlands' Folk song, Prayer of Thanksgiving. In each number the voices were so well trained and of such a volume it was not only a delight but a great sur prise. The little folk of the rural schools rendered two choruses. The Wood pecker, and Tho Owl, singing the P'n t songs in a very able manner. Jn j The May Day 1’cte and the Spring Song, tlie Peirce and McLelian schools showed their training for the j selections were difficult for young voices and they did excellent work. Miss Knowlton's selection was Somewhere A Voice Is Calling which she rendered in her usual charming manner and was given liberal ap plause. She responded with a sweet little lullaby. Miss Kittredge read for her first number The Incorrigible, a juvenile monologue, the story of a naughty hoy and his baby brother. Her cn c"re number was a humorous poem, “When Father's Sick.” McKeen’s orchestra assisted by Sclden Hammons, bass viol, rendered three selections which were most en joyable and also played for the dance which followed. Much credit is due Prof. Chase for tlie great stridrs in music tho schools have made during the past year and he was warmly congratulated at the close of the program. KHirii|;:o S.
