GRIP AND THE WEATHER.
How They Have Reduced the PEN
obscot Lumber Cut.

BANGOR, March 26.-Th lumbermen on
Penobscot waters have experienced more
different kinds Of weather and had a greater
variety of obstacles to overcome during the
past winter than for many years past, and as
result the log crop will be short of the esti-
mate in many localities. November and De-
cember were months Of rain and mud, the
snowfall Of January and the first half of
February was very scant, while for the past
four or five weeks there has been success
sion of heavy snow storms with intervening
thaws, rendering the roads almost impas-
sable and cutting off many camps from thei-
source of supplies. Several operators on the
West Branch were obliged to feed their horses
for several days on -four, as their fodder had
given out and the tote roads were so deep
with slush that no supplies could be hauled
into the woods. On the lakes the slush Is so
deep that many horses have broken their
legs while crossing. and on Canquomgomock
men have waded up to their waists on their
way out Of the woods.
TO add to all these troubles the grip had a
three weeks run in the camps, retiring
about 80 per cent OF the working force at a
time when every man was needed. The East
Branch operators have had better luck than
those on the West Branch. There Is good
hauling on the East, with about three feet Of
snow, and the cut, now about completed,
VIII amount 10 zU,VO,VUU Ieet, several Dli-
lions more than last years output. The
West Branch will send down about 80, ,000, 900
feet; Piscataquis, $1,000 600; Mattawamkeag,
$4,000 900; Passadumkeag and various
brooks, 100000. making total for the
river Of 157, 900, 900, this estimate including
six or eight millions of old logs. The win
ter's work on the Penobscot has given enl-
ployment to about $500 men and 1900 horses
and oxen. and 600 river drivers will be re-
quired this spring to bring the logs to the
boom. Logs are likely to be so cents per 1000
higher than last year. the Moosehead logs
that go into the Kennebec having already
been sold at that advance.

Mr.. QUAcKENBoS FOUND IT COSTLY.
He Made Statements LlbelIIng the
Rev. Or. Charles n. RyIance
And the Jury Think That About
$4,000 Will Pay the Bill.
What Promised To Be a Long Trial
Settled by Default.

New YORK, March 26.-The famous libel
suit brought by the Rev. Dr. Charles H. Ry-
lance, rector of st. Marks Church, against
Nicholas Quackenbos, the distinguished law
yer, and vestryman of the church, went to
the jury today. The case was called yester-
day, and long. hard and what was to be a
celebrated legal battle was confidently ex-
pected. But the defence have withdrawn,
leaving the field to the plaintiff, and the libel
suit has become what Is known in legal lam
guage as an inquest. Yesterday Judge Full
lerton, Mr.. Quackenbos's counsel, asked that
the trial be postponed. He said that none
of his witnesses were in court and that he
was exhausted with his efforts in the Flack
trial. Mr.. Leavitt, counsel for DIR. Rylance,
asked that the trial go on, In order that the
clergyman's character might be vindicated.
Judge Sedgewick said the case must proceed
at once. He was inexorable, and Mr.. Fuller
ton declared that he could not appear. The
court ordered the default to be taken. This
morning Mr.. Leavitt put DIR. Rylance on the
stand, and read him the charges made
against him by the defendants. He denied
them all. Henry Renwick, an old vestry-
man of st. Marks, testified to the good
character of the rector. and joseph FL.
Choate then addressed the jury. Judge
Sedgewick, in addressing tEe jury, said: /:
"This libel is admitted to be false, and 1t is
shown to be malicious, and you must assess
the damages which the law provides for ma
licious libel. And you must estimate them
according to the effect upon the plaintiffs
feelings and fer all the consequences which
he has suffered. You may also punish the
defendant for the evidence of malice
In the libel You must look to the punish
ment Of such exhibitions Of malice, and
punitive damages must be estimated ac-
cording to the degree of malice shown. Then
add these two sums together, to attain the
proper total"
The jury retired at Ills a. m, and after
staying out about half an hour returned
with verdict awarding the plaintiff $4,000
and $500 supplementary for costs.
Judge Fullerton at once moved for a stay
of proceedings, but Judge Sedgewick said he
could see no reason for granting such a mo-
tion

The Montgo mery-Emmett pril,.

The coming Montgomery Emmett drill Is
creating more in terest in Portland and like
wise throughout the state than anything of
a like character ever did. One reason Is, be-
cause nobody knows what they are capable
of when put side by side. The Emmetts
have never engaged in a competitive drill
and to put them beside our champion COM
pany nobody knows where they will stand.
A Portland gentleman who is interested in
military affairs has been visiting in Worces-
ter and says the Enmetts are bound to de-
feat the Maine boys, and are working ito do
1t. They drill three nights each week in the
rink and three nights in their armory. be-
sides drilling two hours in their, armory
Sunday afternoon. One lieutenant has been
unable to stand the strain and has given up
his work for awhile and is attending to his
military duties exclusively. This shows
they mean business. The Montgomerys are
drilling three and four nights week and
the officers say 1t is hard work to get more
than twenty men together. The boys must
remember that they are going into strange
place to fight against strange company that
they know nothing about, and II they desire
to win they must work harder than they are
working at present. The Montgomery
Guards is the banner company of
the state, and 1t will be a great feather in
their caps to march home victorious, and no
doubt it would be a pleasure to show the
Massachusetts boys few points.

Jamaica Officials Watch a Russian
Ship and Utter Dire Threats.

NEW YORK, March 26-Advices from ia
maica, W. l.. say that the presence of Rus
sian man-of-war in the harbor of Port Roy
al, JAM, has caused no end of excitement in
that usually tranquil island. The Jamaica
Post, in an article on the subject, says:
At present there is Russian war vessel
named the Minnie in the harbor. She came
mere ostenslbly for repairs, but it has since
been found out that she requires none. The
commander OF the vessel now says he re-
quires coal. and has been allowed to come
up the harbor to obtain it. The vessels

AGAINST THE TRUSTS.
An Amendment to Protect the w. c.
r. U. and Like Societies.

| WASHINGTON, March 26.-The antitrust
Mr.. Spooner offered an amendment to the
first section giving the courts authority to
issue writs of injunction prohibiting combi-
| nations from proceeding any further in busi-
| ness except to wind up their affairs The
legal bearing and effect of the amendment
as well as the bill were general discussed by
Messrs. Spooner, Gray, Hoar. Stewart, Vest,
Reagan and Eustis. Mr.. Vest said the bill
said TO persons dealing in futures and OPP
tions that they were original thieves sand
robbers, but If they would pay $1,000 into
the treasury they might go on irobbing. Mr..
Eustis regarded that part of the bill as the
grossest usurpation ever attempted in the
history of the government
Mr. Vance admitted that in his Judgment,
Mr.. Ingalls's amendment was unconstitu-
tional. He said that part of the bill might
be declared so by the courts without affect
ing the remainder of the bill. Mr.. lngalls's
could not originate in the Senate.
that Mr.. ieA Iis?1 Ingalis's an amendment nes1t
was entirely out of place and
should not be incorporated In the bill, but it
did not Interfere at all with the Cotton EX-
change in Louisiana or anywhere else.
Mr.. ingalls, said his amendment was not
intended in any manner whatever TO inter
fere with bargains, purchases, sales or ex-
changes of any products of which parties
might be possessed. or Of which they might
be producers. or which they intended actual
ly TO deliver. 1t was directed against the
gigantic modern invention known as deal
ing in futures" which was just as nefarious
and as disreputable as the poker table or the
faro bank Mr.. ingalls, argued that his
amendment did not violate the Constitution
in any respect. There was wide difference
between 1t and revenue measure
Mr.. Butler offered an amendment extend
ing the provisions of the bill to stocks and
bouds; adopted.
Mr.. Eustis offered an amendment extend
ing the provisions to cotton prints, steel
rails, boots and shoes, lead and lumber;
adopted.
on motion of Mr.. Blair, an amendment
whiskey and all kinds Of intoxicating drinks
within the provisions of the bill.
Mr.. Wilson of Iowa, moved an amendment
to the first section by adding proviso that
it should not apply to any arrangement,
agreement, association or combination
among persons for the enforcement and exc
cution of the laws of any state enacted in
pursuance of its police powers, nor be held
to control or abridge such powers of the
states. He explained his object to be to ex-
cept from the operation of the, law such as
sociations as the Woman's Christian Tenn
perance Union and the Temperance Alli-
ance.
Mr. Vest moved to increase the license for
dealers in options from $1,000 to $4,000;
adopted on rising vote.
The bill had been considered In committee
of the whole. 1t was reported to the Senate
where all the amendments will have to be
acted upon again and where other amend
ments may be offered. The Senate, at GAS,
adjourned until tomorrow.

The prohibitionists of Mississippi will
hold state convention July 1st, with the
ultimate object of incorporating pIohiDi-
tion clause In the new constitution. Thirty
nine of the IA counties OF the state are now
under prohibition.
A Concord, N. III. despatch to the Boston
Journal says there is official authority for
the statement that in May next the directors
Of the Northern railroad will declare from
their surplus an extra dividend OF 25 per
cent, amounting to about $4,000 1t Is un-
derst0o6 that after this extra has been paid
the corporation will have at least a surplus
of half million dollars.
The movement among Iowa Republicans
for the modification of the prohibitory law
is assuming large proportions. Local clubs
are being organized all over the state. and
citizens are Joining them. At Fort Dodge
the new association has 270 signatures to the
roll, all Republicans. At KeOkuk there are
at least 500 Republicans on the roll. There
are larger clubs in all the river cities, for 1t
is here where the law has proved Intellectual,
and the need for some form of regulation Of
the saloons Is felt the most.
