MAINE DISPATCHES.
HARRY McNEALLY RETURNS.
The Deiaulter was With Him in England.
Very Probable that the Stolen Bonds
Have been Secured.

sAco, Feb. l3.
Harry A. McNeally, brother of the Saco
bank defaulter, arrived home today from
Europe, where he had been to recover s275,-
900 negotiable and registered bonds stolen by
the defaulter last August. His brother,
who sailed from Halifax about the time Har-
ry left New York, was with him in England
twelve days. When Harry arrived today it
was expected that the bank officials would be
ready to impart information 10 the public re-
gardng the results of his trip. but they were
not I'VE have information said Treasur-
er Kelley, ''but it will not be made public
till tomorrow, or until the Trustees see fit
10 make their official statement regarding
bonds home with him, one of the officials
replied, ''do you suppose Harry would come
alone all the way from Liverpool to Saco
with nearly three hundred thousand dollars
worth of bonds about his person" Another
official said, 1--WE are gratitied at the result of
Ilarry's trip, but can give no information
tonight. The public must wait for the Of
fetal statement of the board of trustees"
The general belief here is that Harry Sc
cured the bonds and left them in deposit at
the bank in Liverpool, subject to the orders
of the bank here. Whether all or only part
of the missing bonds were recovered is the
principal object of doubt to the public mind,
but it is stated by men who claim to know,
that all the missing securities have been in
lIarry's possession and will be recovered by
the bank

expressman to be on the lookout. They
found Woods and his companion wasgatt on
the platform of a car and told them to come
inside. Wasgatt complied but Woods refused
and they undertook him to force him into
the car. He told them to let go and he
would come in; they did So and he attempt
to jump, but they were too quick for him and
held them in their grasp. The train had gone
some little distance when after struggling,
Woods again agreed to go into the car if they
would unhand him. They did so, when he
leaped In attempting to stop him both men
came very near falling from the train.
Woods jumped while on the trestle work
over the street and when picked up was just

mediately summoned but all hope was past.
Woods never spoke after his fatal leap. One

LONDON, Feb.

In the House of Commons. Picton, home
rule member for Leicester. directed the at
tention of the members today, to the arrest in
London last week of Messrs. Pyne, Patrick
O'Brien and Gilhooly, Irish members of Par
lament, which act, he claimed, constituted a
breach of privilege. The speaker said that
Pyne and Gilhooly were arrested on a crim-
dal warrant and there was no breach of priyi-
lege the arrest of O'Brien was. however, a
breach of privilege.
Matthews, the home secretary, apologized
for the indignity to which O'Brien was sub
jected, and said that lhe occurrence was un-
fortunate.
Sir r. f. Webster, attorney general, de-
MED that any privilege existed Explana-
tons and apologies had been given. If these
did not suffice to satisfy O'Brien. he could
prose cute the remedy elsewhere.
Picton was not satisfied with the attorney
generals opinion. Parliament, he said,
must clearly vindieate it's rights. He moved
that the wrongful arrest of O'Brien when
leaving the Commons, he made breach of
theAprivilege of Parliament.
McLaren, radical, seconded the motion.
The Attorney General then moved an amend
ment to the effect that the House regretted
the indignity to O'Brien, but considering il
was a mistake be did dot think it necessary
10 proceed further. Gladstone, Sir Edward
Clarke W, ii. Smith, John Morley and
Parnell debated the amendment.
Morley estimated that the opposition would
allow Picton's motion to be negatived with
out division. He then moved that the
matter be referred to committee on priv
iliges. His motion was rejected by vote
of 46 to Isl.
James c. Flynn, member for North Cork
Nationalist, resumed the debate on the ad.
dress in reply to the Queens speech.
Parneli made an extendended speech and
said that his party had special interest in ia.

Marshal Daniel Guptil of Lewiston ar
rived here on the 730 train last evening,
accompanied by the young woman who yes
terday morning. at about $50, he discovered
dsrobing on the top of Bates corporation
block No. 1. Her clothing was strcwn about
her on the roof and she was walking back
and forth on the ridge pole. Her situation
was pcrilous in the extreme, the roof four
stories from the brick pavement below, was
nearly covered with ice and snow. No time
was lost and the poor dementcd girl was
seized by an officer and the janitor Of the
Savings Bank block, who was one of the
first to see her. She apparently had gotten
over her frenzy when reached and made no
attempt to escape. 1t was learned that she
had suffered from i'll health for some time
past 1t was decided to send her to the In
sane Hospital in this city. As she sat in the
Augusta station, under the constant sur
veillance of Marshal Guptil she appeared
as quiet, modest little woman, but two or
three futile attempts ON her part to slip
through the door and escape showed that her
mind for the time at least was laboriug under
arrangement.
