Which VIII Materially Affect the Seizure OF
LIQUORS in the Pine Tree state.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPAToH.i
BANGOR. Me, June 24-City sollcltof
Mitchell has Just rendered an opinion which
may, to q considerable extent, affect the
further seizure Of beer and liquors by the
local police officers. Hearing that several
parties contemplated bringing suits ior
damages against the police far the recenI
seizures of beer and liquor in the original
packages, the officers, through City Marsnal
Whitney, asked for the opinion OF the CITY
Solicitor in regard to their Liabilities IN
such cases. Mr.. Mitchell's opinion, whlon
has been prepared at some length, and VIII
be handed to Marshal Whitney to-day, Is 10
the effect that the parties seizing beer OF
liquors in original unbroken packages are
liable for the value of the goods selzeo, OF
damages resulting from seizure. 1t is salo
that the police officers, in view OF TINS
opinion, will refuse to make any more
seizures of original packages unless oono
is put up by soma one to cover damages
which the liquor men might obtain by prose-
cution in such cases.
If no bond is put up, this decision, on the
part of the officers, will effectively stop
seizures in a large number OF cases, as
several members of the Committee OF Seven
are still at work swearing out warrants,
nearly every one of which the police have
been called upon to serve.

WILLIAM R. SNYDER yesterday entered suit
against Sebastian Delp for 900 damages for
alleged false arrest. He stated that on June 9.
Delp caused his 17-year-old to enter suit
against Snyder, charging him before Alder
man McMasters with forgery. He was arrested,
and after having been imprisoned for some
time, was given a hearing and discharged. For
the modification, etc., he asks $4,000 damages.
