pany and Hon. NJ c. Foster of Wa,erville,
requesting them to be present at the meeting

and the firm of NJ. G. Foster ( Son to con

being the lowest bidders for the same.
Separate contracts will be made with each

formance of the work. The granite to be
used is 10 be taken from the Waldoboro
quarry and is as good as can be found in the
State We give below a full list of all pro-
posals both general and special. 1t will be
seen that there was difference between the
successful bidder for the granite and the next
highest of SOB. When it is remem.
bered that many were of the opinion that the
addition contemplated by the plans furnished
by Messrs. Brigham and Spofford last winter
could not be erected for the amount stated in
their estimate it will be gratifying to the
tax payers of Maine to learn that the total
amount required for that purpose will be
but sl23, ,40s leaving the balance of the appro-
priation of $50 900 to be expended in i'm
proving and yentilating the present Capitol

1t is expected that the contractors will be-
gin work the first of June. The last
eff the granite is to be on the ground on or
before the first OF November, and it is e1,
pected that the roof will be covered by the
first of December next. Mr. Whites con
tract is for the granite delivered on the site

Must Pay the Full Amount.

Dies MONIES, la. Nov. 27.-An opin-
ion was filed by Attorney-General Stone
today which will affect several mutual
assessment insurance companies. IL
was given at the request Of State Audi
tor Lyons upon the application of tho
Bankers Life Insurance company for a
renewal Of certificate. The auditor re-
fused the certificate unless the COM
pany would guarantee TO pay the full
amount of each policy, which ii was I'M
able TO do, OWING TO a limit being placed
upon the amount of each assessment
and the number of members not being
sufficient TO bring the aggregate up to
the ACC of the policy. 1t has been the
custom of the companies to pay only
the aggregate of the asses sment. The
encouragement s~ustains the auditor.
holding that all insurance companies
doing business In the state must guar
antee to pay the full face OF the policy
in force at the time of the death Of the
holder.

A Sudden Dlsapnearance.

New YORK, Nov. 27.-Although it is
rumored around the French colony in
this city that Henri R~ochefort, the fire.
eating French editor, arrived in this
city under an assumed name on Satur-
day last, diligent inquiry in channels
where information regarding his move
ments could best be obtained failed to
corroboratc the report. Rochefort sud
derly disappeared from London a few
days after the departure of General
Boulanger for the Isle of Jersey. his
action being accelerated by the fact
that some of his opponents had
printed and put into circulation a pam
phlet containing a reprint of several
articles that he published in his Paris
newspaper some years ago and in which
Queen Victoria and several members OF
the royal family were viciously attacked.
1t is known that Rochefort has for sew
eral months heen contemplating a visit
Il the United States. but his friends in
this city say that il is very unlikely
that he would come here incog and re-
main in seclusion even for a single day.
The only thing certain is that he has
disappeared from London and that his
whereabouts are unknown to his sup
porters in that city,

Would Not Recognize 1t.

LONDON, Nov. ?7.-rhe flag Of the
new Brazilian republic was hoisted for
the first time in English waters yester-
day. with a result that must have been
iiscouraging to the oyerzealous officer
who made haste to display his colors in
advance OF tho formal recognition of the
government whose emblem was thus
faunted to tho breeze. The occasion OF
the display was the arrival at Plymouth
Of a Brazilian warship, TO receive which
the usual preparations were made by
the British war vessels and forts,
and the customary signal to sa-
lutte was awaited from the flag
ship of Admiral Sir William Montague
Dowell. When. however. the flag of
the United States Of Braz | was dis
played instead Of the expected imperial
ensign, the admiral sent a request to the
Brazilian commander o hoist the recog-
nized flag OF Brazil, or at least not to
run up any other. The brazilian cap
tain declined TO comply with the request
and the British iorts and warships re-
manned silent. 1t is probable hat the
captain of the brazilian ship Will make
such representation Of the affair o. will
call forth an intimation of England's at
titude with regard TO the new South
American government from the foreign
office.

TRENTON, N. j., Nov. 27.-When thu
Irish national league leader, Fitzgerald
took 1t upon himself to deny the story
of Mrs. Della Parnell's dcstitution with,
out either making a personal investiga'
tion or through one of his many agents,
he struck a snag.
James Slavin, the Irish patriot in
charge Of the Parnell estate, said:
Fitzgerald is n Of those Irishmen
who thinks he holds a nation in the
palm Of his hand. He Is jealous because
Mrs. Parnell's friends appealed to the
people and because he could not handle
the money. The big Il am wants to
prevent others from doing a good deed
by denying something he knows moth
ing about. He is a blatherskite and
everybody knows it,"
Mrs. Delia Parnell dictated the fol-
lowing TO a reporter today:
II received some assistance from my
appeal until Mr.. Fitzgerald, of the Ma
tional league, took it upon himself TO
deny the story told by my friends with
out he, or any of his agents, making an
investigation of the facts. He said in
substance, the league would take care

My poverty dates back to 1879. l was
destitute then, and prominent members
of the league were SO informed. They
took no action, but gave me the lie.

GREAT PRECAUTIONS TAKEN.

Sone Hut Well Known Persons vn
Hereafter BE Admitted to the Cronl
Court.
CHICAGO, Nov. 27.-FrUm now on u
the end OF the Cronin trial the precau
lions that will be taken to prevent an,
outbreak in the court room will exceet
those employed in the excitement OF tn,
anarchists trial. Special bailiGs viii
guard the doors leading to the stree
and those entering TO tho cour room
and 10 ladies will DO admitted. No one
will be admitted TO the court room OK
cept upon presentation OF a pass signed
by ne proper authorities, and
these will be issued only TO people
that are well known. These precautions
have been adopted as a result of the
high feeling among the antagonistic
Irish elements and the fear hat some
OF the speeches in the summing uI
might provoke trouble in an indiscrimi
nate audience.
1t also leaks out today that the resi-
dence OF a prominent ex-member Of the
triangle which is situated but q
few blocks from the Chicago Avenue
police station Is being nightly watched
by a detective with facilities for
communicating with headquarters
In a few moments. This es-
pionage has been ordered from
the fact that the authorities have
good reasons for believing that a con.
certed attack upon the residence in
question, after the style Of wild western
methods might be made at any time.
That the element in sympathy with the
policy of the murdered physician Is
more than ever determined that his
taking of shall be avenged was demon
strated by the immense turnout at Bat
try ID on Saturday night and at which
time the speeches delivered were more
personal and bitterly denunciatory Of
the triangle than ever before.
There is no denying the fact that
as the trial approaches its CON-
,iusion the feeling ION both sides in
,reases in intensity, and should the out
come be u~nfavorable TO the prosecution
there is no telling the form in which
this feeling may manifest itself. At
any rate the authorities. believing in
the supremacy of the law, have evil
lently thought it well TO take early pre-
CAUTIONS against any attempt on the
Cart of the masses 10 take the law into
their own hands.

slow in reassembling this morning.

devoted TO the consideration of the eff
feet that the demonstration of silver
has upon trade and various industries,
and the effect of the restoration of sill

ance is considerably increased today by
