PORTLAND, Me-, June B.
To the Editor of the Press:
Noticing in today's issue Of the PRESS an
article entitled Bound to Deliver the Vale
dictory," 1 thought you might desire to
know something of the facts of so ''curious
an episode" and so / enclose you a slip
clipped from the New York World, which
gives a very condensed account of the fight
which / made for justice toward my daugh-
ter. If l had the time and ability to write
full account of this peculiar contest, it might
make interesting reading; but suffice it to
say that the Faculty of Rutgers Female
College of New York city found that there
was one person at least in this world that
did not believe in the infallibility of college
faculties. have but lately become resi-
dent of this city, and my daughter halls
from New York city, never having seen
Portland, but expects to join us here as soon
as she graduates. Could l have remained
longer in New York city to have assisted my
counsel, Miss G. would not have had any
part of the yaledictory to deliver.
Yours respectfully,

question of delivering the valedictory at the
coming Commencement. When the an
nouncement was first made that Miss Colds
berg was to have the valedictory, it was
based on the general average of marks of
the two students; Miss Goldsberg had SO 1-6
while Miss Marquand had 915. In making
Miss Marquand's general average 9l5, large
number of absences were charged against
her, for which, it said, she had been excused
by the former President, DR.. Burchard. Miss
Marquands father took the matter in hand
and secured from DR.. Burchard evidence
that his daughter had been excused for alb
sences caused solely by delays Of trains and
laid this before the Faculty. The Faculty
refused to correct the mistake. Then Mr..
Marquand engaged counsel to have the mat
ter Investigated in the courts unless the
Faculty did justice to his daughter. The
counsel with the aid of some of the trustees,
yesterday convinced the Faculty that they
had committed mistake in Furnishing Miss
Marquand with dement's for absences that
were allowed. This brought her general
average up to 951, nearly two points better
than that Of Miss Goldsberg.
This change gave the valedictory as mat
ter of right to Miss Marquand, as by the
rules of the college this honor goes to the
student having the highest general average.
But the Faculty had already given it to Miss
GOldsberg; so they have decided to have two
valedictorieS. Miss Goldsberg will address
the Faculty. while Miss Marquand will have
the closing speech to her classmates and
fellow students,

MILWAUKEE, June 3,-Fourteen addi-
tional arrests were made last evening in
Milwaukee, in pursuance of the indictments
of the grand jury having under consideration
the recent labor riots. OF these. two are
charged with rioting. The others are held
for conspiracy, the offence being boycotting.
They are all Knights of Labor and the entire
district executive board is included, several
of them being leading officers of the Labor
Union. Judge Mallory fixed the bail at 81, 900
for the conspirators and $1,000 for the
rioters. All the knights OF Labor secured
bail. The boycotting conspiracy with which
they are charged grows out of the bitter fight
between the Knights of Labor cigar makers
and the International Union cigar makers,
all of which induced the Knights to vigor-
ously boycott all union shops in the city.
Last night the grand jury brought in another
large batch OF true bills against boycotters,
and arrests by the wholesale will take place
today. Among those indicted is Robert
Schiclling, who is the virtual head of the
Knights in Wisconsin, and who will be ar
rested upon his return from the convention
at Cleveland.
