Messrs. Allen, Small & Co., machinists,
who formerly occupied portion of the Ken
nebec Journal building, have much better ac-
commodations in their new establishment on
Bangor street, east side. Their building,
which is new, is 80 by co feet in size and
comprises three stories. The first or ground
story is devoted to grist mill with one set
of French burr stones, 20 inches in diameter,
and capable of grinding about $50 bushels of
fine meal daily; there is room for two or
three more sets of stones, which will be put
in when the business demands them. The
power is supplied by an engine of some Sc
horse power, with boiler 8 feet high, l-2
feet in diameter, containing 200 tubes of l,2
inches, located, together with a blacksmith
shop, in l story ell connected with the
main building. The second story is used by
Nessrs. A. s. & Co., for their Machine Shop,
and is furnished with all the appurtenances
required for the turning out of large amount
of work. About dozen men are employed.
The third story is used by Mr.. Hiram Ellis
as wood-shop, and is well fitted and fur
nshed for the business. The power in this
shop, is from Allen, Small & Co.'s engine be-
low which also furnishes power to drive the
mandatory of the Smiley Brothers, only
some two rods distant, and of which we shall
speak tomorrow.

Supreme Court Decisions.

Washington, 6. Howard Insurance Co.,
VS.. Norwich and New York Transportation
Co., error to Circuit Court for Connecticut
The City OF Norwich, steamboat, insured
by the plaintiff in error, collided with a
schooner in such a manner as to cause her to
take fire from the furnace and the light
freight being consumed she sank. The in
surance company resisted on the ground that
the loss was occasioned by the collision and
not fire. The court below instructed the
jury that if upon the evidence they found that
the boat would have continued to float so she
could have been towed to place of safety
had the fire not occurred, the verdict must
be for plaintiff. The jury so found and the
verdict was according. The correctness of
the question was the main ruling here where
it was sustained and the judgment affirmed
Western Massachusetts, Insurance Co., VS..
same, error to same point, was also affirmed.

for the use by the government of the Sibey
tent. The plaintiff being by assignment part

ment by Maj. Sibley. The department had
refused to pay on grounds that payment was
violation of army regulations. This court
is of the opinion from the facts found below
that the Sibly contract is not within the pro-
hibitions of the army regulations as pleaded
the judgment is therefore affirmed.
Several other decisions were given but
present no points of special interest.
