The Supreme Court Of Maine, in an
swer to the questions submitted by
Governor GareOlOn, unanimously de-
cidsd against the legality Of the action
Of the Governor and Council on ell the
points submitted. The eject OF the
decision is to characterize their action
as an attempt TO defeat the will of the
people by taking unwarranted advant-
age Of mere technicalities. It leaves
the Governor and his Council without
any defense for their actions, and the
only course left them is to pay no at
tention to the decision Of the court and
refuse to admit that it settles anything; /;
and they propose to 90 on and attempt
to carry out their plot, regardless of
the courts decision. Yesterday was
the day for the meeting Of the Legisla-
ture, AS to the situation on Tuesday
evening, we clip the following para
graph from the Associated Press dis
patches:
The contest tomorrow will be of
great interest, although nothing like
an outbreak is contemplated. The Fu-
siOnists are very reticent about their
plan of operations, their efforts being
TO conceal it. They profess their ability
TO organize both houses tomorrow. So
far as the Senate is concerned this is an
undisputed fact, but they cannot rally
a quorum In the House, and it is the
purpose Of the Republicans to hold the
advantage gained by breaking the quo
rum. 1t is positively known that four
Fusionists have refused to act in the
organization, viz: Voter, Spraul,
Snow and Hartman. Swami, of Minat,
Is said to have renewed his allegiance
to the Fusionists. This will leave "a
two less than a quorum,
and as the Republicans will absent
themselves, this will render the trans
action Of business impossible. 1t is
limited that the Fuslonists will disre-
gard the requirements of a quorum
and proceed to business with the num-
Der they may have, but this is not gem
orally believed.

Europe must always have its rumors
Of war. Now it Is that Russia is max
Ing great preparation, and has placed a
large part Of her army In the western
part Of her empire, and means to fight
Germany and Austria. Russia keeps a
large standing army, and probably the
west is the most convenient part in
the matters Of climate, supplies, and
communications, to say nothing Of any
signs Of disturbance in the Polish prov
inces. But, of course, it is supposed
that she would not attack these two en-
pires without the aid Of France, there

Springfield Gazette, January ,.
Not a little uneasiness is felt among
the unfortunate stockholders of the de.
funct Narrow Gauge, on account of q
petition entered by Whiteley, Fassler
d Kelley against the SD. d p. r. r.
and Warder, Mitchell & Co, of which
the substance is about as follows:
On December l6, Whitley, Fassler q
Kelly obtained judgment against tho
road for $190,SA6 03. On December 81
they issued execution against the road
for that amount, which was returned by
the Sheriff nothing being found where
on to levy,
This petition sets forth these facts
and further that Warder, Mitchell Is
Co., are holders Of 300 shares in the
road and that they are liable to pay the
full amount Of the subscription to sat
isfy claims against the road.
The petitioners further pray that an
order be made requiring Warder.
Mitchell s. Co, to pay $4,000, to be dis
among the creditors of the
road under the order of Court.
This seems to bo q test case, and if
decided for the petitioners, 1t will lay
overy stoekholdOr liable to pay the full
amount Of the stock for which he sub
sCribed.
The progress Of the case will be anx-
ously watched by many who have al
ready gained considerable valuable and
costly experience in the business oil

The Ohio Legislature made quick
work Of the Senatorial question. AT
the Caucuses Of the House and Senate
on Saturday night the time of holding
the joint senatorial caucus was set for
Tuesday evening last. The contest
seems to have been given up in favor of
Garfield before the meeting Of the eau
Gus. Ex-Governor Dennison announced
his withdrawal at noon on Tuesday,
and on the meeting of the caucus, the
name Of Hon. Stanley Matthews was
withdrawn. His withdrawal was
followed by that Of Judge Taft, and
General Garfield was nominated by ac-
elimination as the choice of the Repub-
licans for United States Senator. The
proceedings were harmonious, and the
result will be satisfactory to the Re-
publicans of the State, as in fact any
selection made from the four contest
ants would have been,
