Result of Trial in the SkOWhegap
Court.

SKOwHEGAN, April 10.
The case of Eusebe and Camille Marceau
vs. Hermen Whipple which has been on trial
for three days, came to an end Friday night
with verdict for the defendant The trial
at the December term ended in disagree
ment. The action trespass for an assault
on the wife at Long Pond in this county, Dec.
7th, 1884 The plaintiffs counsel charged it
as a rape and laid damages at $4,000. The
defendants counsel christened it as black
mail The plaintiff wife is 30 yers old. the
testified that when she was carried off in
arms she did not kick scratch, bite or scream,
As she evidently mistook the name of the
crime, the yary did not credit her story far
enough to allow damages even for simple
assault. Allusions were made during the
trial to the fact that this was not the first
case of blackmailng. The defendant is a
thoroughly respe ctable man, has followed the
lumbering business for the Coburns and
executors 46 years. The plaintiffs are Canad-
ian French, then at work at the Coburn
House where it was alleged the outrage was
committed. The jury returned verdict in

so long as we impose taxes on raw materials

terials. Nevertheless, by the drawback sys.
TEN, which can do no injury TO any domestic
interest, partial remedy is afforded in some

SUBJECT OF innumerable protests and thous-
ands OF suits and of partial adjudication IN
the supreme court. In order to relieve both
merchants and customs officers from annoy-
ing exactlons and unnecessary labor, it is
proposed to abolish all oaths and fees and to
substitute in lieu thereof, as in other foreign
countries, declarations of the importer. bu,
preserving the same penalties as is now i'm
posed by the law for false statements
The report of the republican minority
which has been prepared BY Representative
Mckinley of Ohio begins with the statemen,
that the substitute agreed on by the minority
is new creation and embodies little matter
that was included in the original bill as in
troduced by the chairman. After reciting
IN detail various articles. wool fish, timber,
hemp and like fbres and salt, which it is pro-
posed to put on the free list and the reduc-
ton to be made IN manufactured goods, the
minority report saws: The minority assert
that In the year 1885 the average duty upon
imported goods little exceed AZ per cent.

unusually low and furnishes no justification
tor this bill. What the ad valorem rate of
duty will be under our tariff laws If amended

norlty report doesn't disclose even the esti-
mate, but whether 1t will be higher of lower

The minority cannot to earnestly protest
against the passage of this bill. They view
Its presence here, sanctioned a. it is bv the
majority, as the first step toward the reversal
OF the revenue system as founded BY our
fathers, and the substitution of the British
system of tariff for revenue only. The large
tree list which it proposes comprises many
important productions of home make and
growth. 1t warns US that the evident ulti-
mate purpose is to make dutiable only such
article as we cannot produce in the United
States and release from customs duties such
foreign products, whether field, forest or
factory, which compete with our domestic
products. 1t there be an honest desire on
the part of the committee and House to re-
duce taxation avoid q surplus in the treasury
and leave the surplus with the people.

Lewiston. April 10.
A shrewd Maine detective has succeeded
in tracing the course of Walter w. Veneer,
the Pennington bank swindler, who harm
essed the lightning and made it his accom-
plice. After he left Maine, Wsnzer went to
Joliet. H.. which city he made his head
quarters for several months. He practised
his trade as a bank robber and confidence
man until the police were bet on his scent,
when he took wing for Manitoba. where he
remained in concealment doing nothing until
last winter. From Manitoba he went to
Buenos Ayres, South America, where ne now
lives under the name of Freeman. lie Is
said to have bled the South Americans freely
and to have lot of money. Freeman, or
Wanzer. was born in Ne@ York and prac-
tised the trade of an electrician before he be-
came a professional rogue. He has mis-
tress in Massachusetts, whose attachment Tor
him, and whose assistance to him in planning
and escaping from his scrapes, would make
an ample basis for a romance.
