TEST OF the FIRE BOATS.
Portland's Water Front VIII Be Well
Protected In the Future.

Yesterday afternoon Aldermen Thompson
ana Lewis and Councilmen Cousens and
Stephenson, from the committee on fire de-
partment. with the full board of engineers,
held the annual trial of the city fire boats
The steamers Mary W. Libby and Joseph
Inc Hoey repaired to the Grand Trunk
wharf and trials were made there through
long single line of hose with different size
nozzles, and also through two lines at the
same time. There was very successful
test given to new nozzle designed by En-
gineman French of steamer 8. There was
also test given by the Fanny g., owned by
Captain B. J. Willard. The Fanny G. has
just had new Dean pump put into her for
wrecking and fire purposes. The pump is of
the same make as that in the Josephine
Hoey, but somewhat larger. The tests were
very satisfactory to the committee and board
Of engineers, and arrangements are contem-
plated so that our board of engineers can
have all three boats respond in case of fire
on the water front, instead of only one as at
the present time.

try and stairs were found saturated with

damage The government claims that Fin
nan was seen about there in the evening, in
quiring for his wife, with whom he had
had trouble, and against whom he had made
threats and manifested the most intense ha-
tired; that on this particular night he sup
posed her to be locked In one Of the upper
rooms. This, together with the fact that
whereabouts on this night, the fact that his
roommate says he did not get In until nearly
o'clock In the morning, and when arrested
his clothes had more or less kerosene on
them constitutes the governments case
against him.
Finnan admits that he was in the building
that night and inquired for his wife, but
claims that he went home to his boarding
house on Salem street, between 10 and IL
o'clock; that he did not feel well, and soon
went out again, but did not go near Com
mercial street: that he went up on the cor
ner of Orange street and laid down for half
an hour, and then returned to his boarding
place; he found the door locked, and SO
waking his roommate. and went to bed !; that
when he got into bed, short time before
his arrest by the officers, as testified to by
his roommate, he had just returned from the
water closet.
