THE PRISONERS DISCHARGED.
There Was No Law Covering the Case
And They Could Not Be Held.

Yesterday morning the five South Bos-
ton cattle men, who raised a drunken
row on board the steamer fremont Mon
day night, were before Commissioner
Rand, charged with assault with danger
GUS weapons on Captain Craig. In the
absence of District Attorney Dyer, E.
Dudley Freeman, ESQ.,, acted for the
government. George Libby. ESQ.,, and
Carroll w. Morrill,, ESQ.,, appeared for
the prisoners.
Capt. Craig, Mr.. Thompson, the mate
and several of the crew told the story of
the row which was that published in the
PRESS.
There was no evidence that any dead
ly weapon was used by the rioters, hence
Commissioner Rand dismissed the COM
plant and discharged the men. The
drunken row on the high seas, and this
affair was nothing more. The captain of
a steamer has the right to maintain
order on his boat, but unless drunken
men use dangerous weapons there is no
law to cover their case.
Mr.. Benjamin Thompson, attorney for
the Portland Steam Packet Company, is
preparing a bill which will soon be pre-
sented to Congress which will cover the
matter.
It may be stated, in this connection,
that the crews on the Boston boats have
been armed with policeman's billies, and
hereafter any drunken party who may
make a similar disturbance will be sum
marily dealt with.

The Color of the Eye.

The color Of the iris is not uniform in
any eye. Some eyes have spots, others
stripes, still others blotches of white,
green, blue, yellow and black, and the
eye takes its color from the predomi-
nance of one hue. An eye that is con-
sidered gray will often be composed of
black and yellow. An eye that is thought
to be brown will be very dark red, with
spots of yellow or blue.-St. Louis Globe

The tyeather today
Is likely to be
colder.
FRIDAY, March II, 1892.
T\OO much faith
4 should not be re-
posed in the alma
nae.
The weather bureau is
a safer guide. The mid
dle-March air is likely to
be Of a June like softness;
then the clothing begins
to feel unendurably heavy
and there comes an i'm
pulse to throw off too
much OF 1t.
There's no objection
whatever to a change but
it should be a gradual
one. One should not
jump out of thick wooden
underwear into summer
Balbriggans. Everybody
should be provided with
middle-weight undercloth-
ing as well as overcloth-
ing. Health and comfort
agree in this demand.
1t is true that there are
people who wear the
same weight clothing the
year round, though not
required by circumstan-
ces to do so. Such peo-
pie are a mystery to us.
There are animals
which appear as insensi-
bic to cold as others to do
heat, and there are cold
blooded men and women
but for all that, snifhes,
grip and pneumonia are
no respectors of persons.
In this uncertain spring
weather when one day is
winter and the next sum-
mer it is needful to make
frequent changes, to
dress for the day and its
requirements. Never
mind the small bother of
doing so; do it, it will
pay. Sickness and doc
tors bills are worse.
The Portland daily press., 1892-03-11

Our line of medium
weight underclothing for

gins at 25c. and we are

Charged with Threatening to Shoot.

Charles E. Maxwell was in the munich
pal court yesterday charged with threat
ening to shoot Charles E. Thomas. Max
well said on the stand that he worked for
Thomas in his stable, that Thomas wanted
him to vote the Democratic ticket on Mon
day but he refused. Thereupon Thomas
called him abusive names and discharged
him. He said he never had threatened
to shoot Thomas, but he had threatened
to lick him. Maxwell became his own
bondsman for 800 to keep the peace and
was discharged.
A Suggestion for the New Street Commits
sioner.
To tie Editor Of the Press:
AS every city government desires to
gain reputation for economy, venture
to call the attention of our new street
commissioner to measure which would
result in a considerable decrease in the
expense of his department, namely, the
regular organization Of the volunteer bri-
gade of ladies who for some time past
have gratuitously swept thes sidewalks
with their trailing gowns. The thorough
ness with which the work is already per-
formed leaves nothing to be desired in
that direction, but little more method
in regard to time, place, &C., would
greatly increase its efficacy. The gown
possesses q marked superiority for this
purpose over the broom of the ordinary
street sweeper, its soft material enabling
it to catch and hold singularly well the
accumulated filth of the street, as any
one may readily convince himself by a
glance at dress at work. If q member
of the brigade should assert that she is
in the habit of holding up her gown, this
need not lead to her rejection, Tor al
though few inches at one side are thus
gracefully lifted a foot OF two above the
ground, the rest of the dress, being al
lowed to trail at full length, is amply suf-
fcient to accomplish its purpose. At
this season, when the streets are espe-
cially dirty, the services of these ladies
are invaluable, and since they are willing
thus to sacrifice comfort and cleanliness,
it is to be hoped that our citizens will not
be deprived of the full benefit OF such
public spirited conduct by any inaction
on the part of the proper authorities. [
would therefore beg leave to recommend
the subject to the early consideration OF
the Street Department. x.

THE HURLEY FIRE.
Charges Against FirSman--An lnyssllaa-
ton and a ROlnslalemenL
The Insurance..

There was great deal OF comment
Yesterday, about the handling OF the
fire at NJ. @. Hurleys residence Thurs
day night and this was intensified
when Il became known that Foreman
Bill Hebron, OF the hook and ladder
company had been dismissed from the
service for not taking his company 20
the Hurley FIRE. the order emanating
from Chief Ben Bell. Hebron de-
manded an investigation, asserting that
he had obeyed orders given him by the
chief.
Chairman Lewis, Of the fire commit
tee, called the committee 10 meet at the
city hall yesterday afternoon at B
o'clock TO hear the evidence in the
case. The other two members OF the
committee, Aldermen Day and Nicks,
were present and at $3.50 the committee
was called to order by Chairman Lewis,
who asked II II should be q secret ses-
sion or not. Alderman Day was the only
one opposed to the star chamber mode
OF procedure or who did not object TO
an open session Of the committee and
all retired except Chief Bell, Foreman
Hebron, tho members OF the committee
and the assistant city secretary
Chief Bell made his accusation
against Hebron, which was disregard
OF a general order requiring all the
apparatus TO respond to a general
alarm; that the Hook and ladder com
pany was under control of Foreman
Hebron, that general alarm was
turned in and that Hebron did not re-
spOnd TO II with his company. The
chief was sworn and testified that he
had issued an order requiring the com
panies IN She fire department to re-
spond to fire alarms In their respective
parts of the city, giving some details,
and that there was positive order for
all 10 respond TO general alarm, which
is the third alarm. A general alarm
was turned in for the Hurley fire and
Heffrons company did not respond.
VIM. Hebron was sworn aud testified
that at the fire about two weeks ago on
East Railroad avenue, near Jones street
he went with his company to the fire,
and there Chief Bell told him never to
come south Of Front street again, that
the Thornton chemical company had
ladders and they would be all that
were necessary for the South side; that
several OF the company were present
and heard the order given, and he had
obeyed II ever since.
This statement was supported by
Frank Bishop, who was tho next wit
ness sworn, and then Foreman Hebron
was invited out of the room. The com
mittee and the chief held u consulta
tiOn at which IL was determined thai
there was an honest mistake all around
that the chief and the foreman now un
derstood the order as IL was intended
TO be understood, so the order OF dis
missal was withdrawn and Foreman
Hebron went back TO his duties.
The insurance carried by Mr.. Hur
ley was $500, in the Zane Cett

William Gillette's successful comedy,
THE Private Secretary will be pre-.

edy, and they were treated TO a splen-

times before, 1t was never better played
than 1t was last night.
Mr. Fairbanks played and looked the
pious secretary TO perfection, and he
and the eccentric uncle, Mr. Constan-
tine, made most Of the fun, though all
the members OF the com.
pany contributed their share.
Mr.. Edwin Travers, who Is the man.

nephew we'll. Mr.. Travers is hand.

mozart PURCHASE
Several Good Reasons Why The Expense
Should Not Be Incurred how-lefs
Get Out oil The Moods.

At 1905 Yesterday afternoon Mayor
Paddock filed with City Secretary
Burns this communication:
To the honorable City Council OF Fort worn,
Texas.
GENTLENHN-At the last regular meeting
of your honorable body held Tuesday even
ing October Is, 1892, the following resolu-
ton was adopted by vote OF ten for, and
eight against
Twelve thousand, seven hundred aud fifty
ollars OF the money on hand from sale OF
lie eighth series of bonds be used In pay
ment In full for the ZOOX2O0 feet Mozart
block, conditioned that tho title is approved
by the city attorney, aud that the balance
OF said eighth series fund be used in build
ing a central fire hall. y
This resolution is the same In substance
as the one adopted BY your honorable body
on the 9TH day of June last, and which
feel constrained TO return to you wi out
my q proyal, giving my reasons therefor at
considerable length.
Nothing has occurred since that time 10
cause change of the opinion that | then
entertained, and therefore return the
resolution to you without my approval, and
for the same reasons, viz:
That II is not wise, prudent or business
| like for the the city, In It's present financial
condition, 10 invest o large Il sum In the
purchase of lands which 1t cannot. for the
want of funds, utilize or improve. aud
therefore does not need,
Second. The purchase Of this land and
! the appropriation OF the remainder Of the
money on hand from the eighth series Of
| bonds for another purpose, implies
| that the council contemplate the abandon.
ment oil school building IN that vicinity,
| for the present ut least, as they propose TO
devote all the funds that can be used for
| the erection Of a school BUILDING TO another
and entirely different purpose-and there
is no fund, TO my knowledge, from which
the money can be replaced
In view Of this condition, ! can see no
good reason for purchasing the land. The
city has already several pieces OF real es-
| tate for which 1t has no use and the guam
| tity should not be increased,
Again, the city has contracts on hand,
entered into by prior administration, not
yet completed In excess of the ability OF the
city to pay. II is not wise TO invest the
| money on hand In real estate that cannot be
| utilized, so long as IL Is unable TO meet obli-
| cations already outstanding.
am fully In sympathy with the desire Of
the people in that part of the city for bet
ter school facilities, and will cheerfully CO.
operate with the council in any effort 70
accomplish this end which is within our
means.
direct the attention OF the council again
TO the financial condition OF the city and In.
woke their aiG and cooperation in the eN.
ercse Of rigid economy to the end that the
obligations Of the city may be promptly
met
Respectfully submitted.
