POLITICAL NOTES.

The Yarmouth delegates to the Dem
ocratic county convention will probably
be kept by Somers. The anti-Somers
faction claim that the caucus was held
by local time when it should have been
held by standard time But it is said
that the principal industry of the town,
the pulp mill, uses local time, and that
time is as much in use among the people
as the standard. Moreover, the caucus
was presided over by Captain Harding,
chairman of the town committee for quar-
ter of a century, and was attended by lead
ing Democrats. ''The fellows who are
kicking" said leading Yarmouth Dem
ocrot to a PRESS correspondent, ''are
men who have ordinarily not taken
enough interest to go to caucuses."
Further than this, the chairman did not
call the caucus to order until 10 minutes
after the time.
Major William Dickey, Duke of Fort
Kent, arrived in this city yesterday.
Major Dickey was in Gardiner yesterday,
where he visited the tomb of his old
neighbor, the famous George Evans.
Mr.. Dickey has known all the famous
men who have played their parts on the
Maine political stage in the last fifty
years, and abounds in "reminiscences of
them.
At Republican caucus held at Water
ford June II, the following delegates
were chosen:
state-J; W. Warren, George L. Warren and
G. S. Hamlirl.
County-William Douglas, A. S. Hapgood and
Fl. NJ. Fiske
The delegates favor Cleaves for COVER
nor and J. w. Warren for register Of pro-
bate for Oxford county,
At a caucus of the Republicans of
Harpswell for choosing delegates to the
State convention, on Monday evening,
June 10, Capt j. B. Pinkham, Moses
Bailey and Isaac Merriman, End, were
chosen delegates and were instructed to
vote for I'll. b. Cleaves for candidate
for Governor. The position of the Re-
publican party on both State and ma
tional questions gives the Republicans of
Harpswell the fullest confidence of a
grand victory this fall for the able leader
of Portland and for the national ticket.

to 0, after one inning was played. Doe,
on third, was caught off, Condor to
McGuirk. He claimed that he was not

fined IS twice. AS he made another re-
mark, Kelliher ordered him out of the
game. Capt. McGunnigle couldn't see
it that way, and after five minutes had
passed, as the Brocktons did not take
the field, Kelliher gave the game to
PaWtucket.

CAPTURED IN THE FOURTH.
The Portlands Won Yesterdays Game by
Good Playing.

The home team captured yesterdays
game in their fourth, when four singles,
a home run and a brace of errors Melted
them four runs, a lead which was al
together too large for the visitors to
overcome, and which left no particular
further interest in the game. Klobdanz
pitched a great game, struck out nine of
the visitors, and made home run, bring

a magnificent difficult running catch in

COEDUCATION AT YALE.
FIRST Step Toward Opening the University to
Women.

First Step Toward Opening the University to
Women.
The corporation Of Yale University has at
length determined to do what has been long
expected, and has taken the first step toward
opening the university to both sexes.
The action which it has Just resolved upon
has not avowedly that end. It 10 comprised
about with conservative restrictions and reser-
vations, but that is what it 10 supposed to
mean.
The action recently taken was officially an
nounced today by Prof. Ladd on the part Of
the corporation. The written statement made
by him reads as follows:
AT the last meeting Of the corporation OF
Yale plan was adopted which will in the near
future extend greatly the postgraduate work
in the university. Twenty scholarships, yield
ing the amount of tnition or 9l00 each, and
five feiiowships OF s400 each have been created.
These will be open to graduates OF all colleges.
Tho most noteworthy feature of the plan is the
opening OF the strictly post graduate course
and the degree of doctor of philosophy on and
after the fall of 1892 without distinction.
ut is not the intention of the university to
compete with the colleges for women or to in
stitn,e department i'll rivnlry with tho CO.
educational institutions. but to receive the
graduates of these institutions and give them
as good opportunities for the most advanced
research and education as can now be secured
only in Europe"

DISTRICT GOVERNMENT.
TIE r STREET BRIDGE.

For some time past Capt Fiebeger has been
examining into the safety of the bridge over
Rock creek at P street. In forwarding his re-
port tc Engineer Commissioner Rossell upon
this subject he says that, broadly speaking, the
structure is quite deficient in width, stability
and rigidity for the service il must perform.
Its reconstruction can only supply the deficien-
cies. The loads assumed are dead load equal
to the weight of the structure and q live load
Of 100 pounds to the square foot on the bridge
floor, together with four loaded motor cars
weighing 81 900 pounds each. The condition of
two such cars passing on the same beam would
subject it to n stress equivalent TO . uniform
load Of 81, no pounds The present safe ca
pacity OF the beams is about 24sO00. The bridge
can be strengthened by truss rods, he thinks,
and in view Of the exigencies OF the case rec
ommends its immediate repair.
MISCELLANEOUS.
At the public hearing given by the Commits
sioners today upon the bill chartering the
Union Passenger Railroad Company, Messrs
Geo. W. Linkins and T. ]. Newton were the
only ones present They advocated the bill.
Mr.. August Donath has written q letter to
the Commissioners requesting that he be given
a hearing and that the case against ex- Detective
Horne be reopened. The letter has been re-
ferred to the major Of police.

Indications of Russia's Purpose to Advance

BEnLIH, March 16.-The Fossiche Ztifunq has
dispatch from Warsaw telling that Gen.
Koznin, the governor of Warsaw, has resigned
because he differed with Gen. Gourko, the Rus
sian commander-in-chief, in relation to the re-
pressive measures which Gourko desired
to take for keeping down the Polish
agitation. and especially as to the precau-
tons to be taken for the safety and
support Of the inhabitants Of Warsaw in the
event of war. Gen. Gourko had stated that il
war broke out all the civilians should be ex-
PEELED from the city, leaving the provisions to
DO devoted to the support of the military.
LET the civil pack die, no exclaimed. "Let
them perish miserably. What care we?'
10 this Kozmin objected, with the remark
that before starving the people might endsnger
the army.
Gourio answered sharply: II will level fifty
cannon at Warsaw and then they will die
quietly
This was too much for Gen. Kozmin, Who is
said TO be man of humane instincts. and he at
once sent his resignation to ST. Peters,
burg. The fact that there was even
occasion for such discussion has
strengthened the belief that Russia
will shortly make a move in the direction OF
the Balkans, thus provoking war with Austria,
in which event alone would there be any cause
for special military preparations for the de-
Tense Of Warsaw.

Municipal Liquor Laws Void.


Municipal Judge Roweli Of Duluth has de-
cided that the city ordinance regulating the
licensing Of saloons 10 illegal and void, and 80
far as il ia concerned the liquor seller can keep
open seven days q week, twenty-four hours
every day. The decision is the outcome of
ruling recently made by the snpreme court Of
the state regarding the ordinance. Any one
desiring license was compelled to pay speci-
fed sum. The Licenses all expired at the same
time, but no difference was made in the amount
charged for IL, whether, when issued, the license
had full year to run or only week This the
supreme court decided was unconstitutional
and unjust disci iusinasiug and that the law was
void. In Duluth it was applied in the EAlssr
case.
some days ago Al Saiter was srrestsd for
keeping mis- saloon open on Sunday contrary to
tho provisions of the city ordinance. The city
