Freeman, the Child-sIaver.

BosToN, April SIN the Supreme Court
application was made by counsel for Charles
/. Freeman, who killed his child at Pocasset,
in April 1879, while under religious fanati-
cism, for the release of Freeman on bail, on
the ground that Freeman was now a sane
man. Chief Justice Morton said the full
court did not feel that the time had arrived
when, after exposure to the temptations of
the world, Freeman might not have a recur-
renee of religious excitement and refused to
admit him to bail. 1t is stated that if the
Attorney-general, after further examination
of the case should see fit to nolle pros. the
Indictment, the court will acquiesce. If,
however, the case was pressed for trial, spe-
eial session would be convened at Burnstable.

A Battle with Convicts.

MONTREAL, Que, May 5.-A desperate at
tempt was made by five convicts at the St.
Paul penitentiary to escape, on Wednesday
night After getting out of the cells they
gagged the keeper. The leader OF the gang,
LIE Blanc, took the revolver belonging to the
guard. In a few minutes two guards came
upon their rounds and were set upon by con-
victs, LIE Blanc presenting a revolver at the
head of the keepers, called upon him to sur
render. The other guard had an iron pad
lock in his hand weighing seven pounds, and
with it struck lie Blanc and fractured his
skull, so life is despaired of. This ended the
matter. The other convicts surrendered and
were locked up. LIE Blanc made his escape
about year ago, but was recaptured.

CHICAGO, May ga number of confer
enees between the striking bricklayers and
employers have taken place the past two
days, and as a consequence it is confidently
announced the men will return to work
next Monday. 1t is contended concessions
have been made on both sides, but the men
will probably receive all they demanded in
point of wages, namely, 81 per day. 1t is es-
timated that while building has been seri
ously retarded, the strike will have no bear
ing in the sense of limiting the number Of
structures contemplated.
