PENNINGTON, March2. 2.-The Supreme
Judicial court opened here this after
noon, Judge Emery presiding. Albert
FL. Small of Deering is stenographer. 1t
will probably be a short term. The case
now on trial is that of Elmer E. Rich
ards, administrator VS.. the Maine Benefit
Association. About two years ago, A.
B. Elwell, clothing manufacturer of
Pennington Falls, was found in a field
near the village dead, the top of his head
being blown off and rifle lying near by.
He had a policy in the insurance compa-
ny of $4,000. The company refuse to pay
claiming, it is said, that he committed
suicide. The administrator sues to make
the company pay. Wing 6 Wing and
Seth M. Carter appear for the company;

LONDON, Mar ch 2.-As the time APP
proaches for the Inauguration of the So
called strike Of the coal miners, who, on
March 12, will quit work for two weeks
with the object of compelling such an
advance in the price of coal as will pre-
vent the mine owners from reducing
wages, the effects of the movement can
be more readily gagged.
1t would be an impossible task to APP
proximately estimate the number of per-
sons who will be thrown out of work by
the closing of mills, ironworks, factories,
etc., but it is certain that over
100000 employees will find them
selves idle. With their families
it is believed that close on to five million
persons will directly or indirectly feel
the effects of the attempt of the miners
to prevent any reduction in their wages.
Of the miners themselves, as before
stated, 460, 900 men will take part in the
strike.

forgers and titlers' associations an

WASHINGTON, March 2.-It is the i'm
preston of those who have followed the
hearing on the menhaden fishery bill
that the committee will report adversely
to the menhaden interest and in favor of
the inshore fisheries, in accordance with
the contention Of Massachusetts,. The
committee is likely to render its decision
on constitutional grounds rather than on
the merits. Several of the Democratic
members of the committee are said to be
of the opinion that Congress has no
power to enact the legislation desired by
the menhaden interest.
The committee this morning resumed
its hearing. Charles F. Chamberlayne, a
lawyer, representing the Buzzard's IS Bay
towns and the Maine fish commission,
opposed the bill on the ground that it
was an invasion of the rights of the
states to control state fisheries.
Attorney General Albert E. Pillsbury
and Mr.. J. Russell Reed were present as
representatives sent by the State of
Massachusetts to protest against the
passage of the bill. Mr.. Pillsbury made
a strong legal argument in support Of
his contention that under the Constitu-
,tion no power was vested in the. Federal
Congress to regulate fisheries within the
limits of the several states. The subject
of the fisheries of Buzzard's S Bay, he said,
was one of great interest to Massachu-
setts, which had by a special act sought
to protect them from the encroachments
of foreigners and citizens of other states.
He held that, under the cession of terri
tory at the close of the Revolution, the
rights in the tidal waters and beds there
of within the limits of state jurisdiction
were vested in the states severally and
not in the United States, subject, of
course, to the power of Congress to re-
gulate commerce and navigation. He
maintained that under the Constitution
Congress could not interfere with the
property rights of the states in the
fisheries within their borders.

Mayor Butler-James o. Bradbury for
Mayor of Saco.
New YORK, March 2.-Advices from
various cities and towns throughout the
state, where charter elections were held
yesterday, indicate that the Republicans
scored victories in nearly every place. At
Elmira, the home of Senator Hill, the
regular Democratic nominee for mayor
was Frederick Collins, prominent law
yer. The opposing candidate was David
G. Robinson, son of the late Governor
Lucius Robinson, who was nominated by
the Republicans and Independent citi-
zens. The result was an overwhelming
defeat of the Democratic ticket and the
election of Col. Robinson by the unprec-
edented majority of 124s. The Republic
can and Citizen candidates for aldermen
were elected in every ward, and also a
majority of the supervisors in the city,
both justices of the peace and all the
constables.
Utica elected Thomas Wheeler, Re
publican, mayor, by 662 majority, and of
six aldermen the Republicans elect six.
Republicans also elect the city judge and
special city judge. The board of alder
men will be Republican for the first time
in q generation. Indi cations from the
towns show that Republican board of
supervisors is sure.
A despatch from Poughkeepsie says
that the Republicans have carried the
board of supervisors by good working
majority. The last board stood Is Dem
ocrats and Republicans. The board
now stands 16 Republicans and Demo-
Gratis, with four towns to hear from. In
Ontario county the result is that the Re
publicans have elected at least IA super
visors out of 16, gain of 6. In the
town of Canandaigua, the home of Sec
retary of State Rice, the Republicans
elected their candidate by 400 majority,
which is the largest ever given in the
history of the town.
Dispatches from Oswego, Newburg,
Batavia, Waterloo, Gloversville, Amster-
dam, Auburn, Saratoga, Rochester,
Kingston and adjacent towns all report
large Republican gains. At Troy, Mayor
DcnnlS y. Wneelan was reelected by
$500 majority. Only three Republican
aldermen were elected in the Is wards.
