THEY SOLD LIQUOR.
Jury So Decided Yesterday in Two Cases
"A Third in Progress.

In the Superior Court before Judge
Bonney yesterday, the first case heard
was that of the state against John Ira
cey, appellant, on complaint for search
and seizure. The respondent keeps a
secondhand stove shop at 405 Fore
street. In shed belonging to the build
ing, which contained stove Innings and
old castings, the sheriffs found five-gal-
lon key horsed up with faucet in it,
containing two quarts of whiskey. I'm
der it was measure with a tunnel. The
sheriffs said Tracey swore at them for
coming there, tried to destroy the war
rant and refused to produce the key to
the lock on the shed. The defendant de-
MED trying to destroy the warrant, did
not refuse to produce the key; never had
the key; didn't know who put the lock
on, but very likely it was some tenant;
he hadn't been in the shed for seven
years, and didn't know there was any
liquor in the shed. He admitted the
shed belonged to his wife and he had
charge of it. Verdict guilty. C. A.
True, assistant county attorney appeared
for the prosecution, and George Libby
for defendant.
State VS.. James Cullen and Emilda
Cullen, indicted at this term for Keeping
a liquor nuisance at AL Commercial
street. The officers testified to finding
bottles smelling of whiskey about the
premises, drunken men in The kitchen,
five at one time, and glasses about the
kitchen smelling of .whisl1ey. In the
woodshed was found bottle of whiskey,
and under the plank walk in the yard
three bottles of whiskey were found.
The defendants denied that they were in
the business, or had ever sold liquor;
they knew nothing about the bottles of
whiskey. Drunken men may have been
seen in the kitchen, because they take
boarders, and it may be that some of
them were intoxicated. Verdict guilty
as to both. c. A. True, assistant county
attorney, appeared for the state, and D.
A. Meaher for defendant.
State VS.. Prudo Paquet, complaint FOR
search and seizure. The respondent
keeps livery stable on India street. The
officers found can containing five gal
Ions of whiskey behind the door in the
harness room. Paquet says he was OF
dered by one Carey to go to the Boston
boat, get a parcel and take it to his sta
BILE; the can was sealed and he didn't
know what was in it. Carey keeps a sa-
loon, situated on Fore street, nearer the
wharf of the Boston boat than Paquet's
stable. The government put in evidence
statements of Paquet tending to show
that he must have known the contents of
the can, which was not unlike the cans
in which harness backing is sold, On
trial. G. A. True, assistant county at
torney appeared for the state and John
C. Cobb for defendant.

WEsTBRooK CITY COUNCIL.
The Electric Railroad Ordinance Laid Oh
the Table until Saturday Evening.

the Table until Saturday Evening.
The Westbrook city council held an
adjourned meeting last evening. Alder
man bennett was in the chair and nine
out of the thirteen aldermen, who con
stitute the city council, were in attend
ance.
The clerk read the records of the pre-
vious meeting and they were approved.
The first business before the meeting
was the consideration of the ordinance
granting the Portland railroad a right of
way through the streets of the City OF
Westbrook.
Alderman Warren said that it was de-
sirable to have the full board present
when this ordinance is finally passed
and though he regretted that the matter
should be postponed yet in view of the
fact that only nine members of the board
were present, he would move that the
ordinance lay on the table until the next
meeting.
On motion of Alderman Warren it was
voted that the ordinance be made spec
ial order for the next meeting, which
shall be held next Saturday evening at
7.30 o. clock.
On motion of Alderman Goodell, the
ordinance relating to the election of city
and ward officers, and the canvassing
and tabulation of returns, was passed to
be ordained.
Alderman Goodell made some informal
remarks, saying he wished tie have the
relative powers and duties of the mayor
and city council defined 1t has been
said that this council can appropriate
money but that they have nothing to say
about the spending of it. He thought
that could not be so. He was of the
opinion this council could make an ap-
preparation and then appoint a commit
tee to expend it.
On motion of Alderman Warren it was
voted to instruct the city solicitor to give
an opinion on the relative powers and
duties of the mayor and the city council
under the charter.

PORTLAND RAILROAD.
A Prosperous Year Einancially-The
Westbrook Extension.

The Portland Railroad Company held
its annual meeting yesterday, after a
wear Of considerable Importance in its
history. The line has been extended to
Stroudwater. the Deering line has been
equipped with electricity, and the West
brook city council soon is expected to give
the final permission which will enable the
extension of the line from Woodfords,
via Spring street, to Cumberland Mills
and Westbrook. Work will probably be-
gin on this extension as soon as the frost
leaves the ground in the spring, and
probably the electric cars will be running
to Westbrook by the middle of June.
The working of the Deering electric line
has been satisfactory from a financial
and every other point of view. In order
to be able to extend the electric service
to the city lines if at any time it shall
seem expedient, the company have pur-
chased property at Deering bridge for a
power house.
The result of the years work financial
ly is shown by the following statement
contained in the directors report, giving
business for the year ending December
81 1891:

rlty, of the democratic National commit
tee, got back to headquarters this morn
ing from Pennsylvania in time to attend
the most enthusiastic meeting of the
campaign committee held since the
opening of the campaign. Nearly all the
members Of the committee were present.
The principle business before the

greatly complicated by the action of the
anti tl-snappers at their recent meeting.
The committee appointed at that meet
ing will confer with the national cam
paign committee. Its mission is to ask the
national committee to indorse their plan
to run local ticket in opposition to the
regular democratic nominations made by
Tammany Hall. 1t is understood that
the committee is opposed to bolting
local ticket. It was the opinion, it i,
said, Of all present that the nomination
of third ticket would be ill advised
and would seriously complicate the sit.

Fear of Lynchtny.
BY Telegraph to State Chronicle.


JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Sept. 2S.-A
telegram from Ocala, Fla, says "There
are fears of lynching here to night.
Yesterday morning Charles Shafer, an
old resident and much respected, was
shot and killed by York Ballard Bal
lard and his younger brother lay in wait
for Shafer, concealed near the latters
house. When Shafer came up in his
wagon Ballard sprang upon him and kill
ed him In most cOwardly manner.
Several years ago Ballard and Skaters
stepson both loved the same girl She
favored the latter. The former began
writing scurrilous postal cards to her.
He was discovered and convicted. His
sentence was six months in the county
Jail. When the sentence was pronounced
he said it was only short time to serve
and thereupon threatened to kill Shafer
The thing gave him 1S months in the
Columbus, Ohio, penitentiary Ballard
returned here yesterday. He gave him
self up after the murder, but claims thai
when they met Shafer attempted tc
cowhide him and he shot him in self
defence, but the body of the dead mar
found in the bed of his wagon contra
diets this assertion. Shafer was abou
fifty years of age. Ballard is only twenty
five years old.

Prospective Election Of a Catholic IA
Lord Mayor of London.
By Cable to the State Chronicle

LONDON, Sept. 2S-There is much ag
itation here over the prospective election
of Stuart Knill, as Lord Mayor of Lon.
don. The opposition to Knil is based
wholly on the fact that he is Roman
Catholic. Knill has written a reply
to a letter from Lord Mayor David
Evans as to his probable course in the
event of election, as to certain
religious services, which the Lord
Mayor is expected to attend in
his official capacity and to the appoint
ment of chaplain. Mr.. Knill says, that
should he be chosen Lord Mayor he
would have clergyman of the estab
lished church, as chaplain, while he
would, 80 far as his personal attendance
at worship would be concerned, of course
continue under Roman catholic minis
trations. The newspapers mosely sup
port Mr.. Knill, but there is a strong ano
bigotted opposition and the legality o
his election may be assailed.
