Inc following decisions, with rescripts, have
been announced in cases pending before the
law court:
YORK COUNTY.
Charles G. Cove, in equity, VS.. City of Bidde-
ford ct ais.
Rescript by Judge Walton-This is suit in
equity. The plaintiff asks the court to compel
the City of Biddeford to extend sewer through
his land. 1t is the opinion of the court that the
decree prayed for can not be granted; that if
Tie city agreed to extend the sewer and the
agreement is binding upon the CITY, the only
remedy for the plaintiff is to sue the city In an
actlon at law for a breach of the agreement
and recover such damages as he can prove he
thereby sustained. But the case as now pre-
sented fails to show that the plaintiff has a
binding agreement with the city.
Bill dismissed with costs.

cordance with the intention of the parties, and

any circumstances) the whole amount insured
and is to be estimated according to the fair val
ue OF the property OF the time of the fire.
The term damage" as therein used may

MORE MINES TO CLOSE.
Iron Trade Frustrated and the outlook
UnfaVOrabIe.

CLEVELAND, O., June 29.-The Iron
Trade Review this week says:
The situation in iron this week is the
close down of prominent Lake Superior
iron mines and the prospect that the sus-
pension of operation will soon be
almost complete In pig iron there
is no change. Outside of Chicago
no activity is reported, and with buyers
asking that shipments under contracts be
delayed there Will be further banking clos
ing out. Shipment Of Southern iron by
rail to Eastern markets has been much cur
tailed and the increased water movement is
only partial compensation. The length
of the mill shut-downs is the pivot
on which the general market turns:
There is no reason on the manufacturers
side for pushing a settlement, and early
agreements need not be looked for. While
an easier feeling is reported by certain
banks, liquidation is still going on, and the
financial aspects Of the situation are upper

a 10 per cent. cut, but a compromise
was effected upon the basis stated.
The mills will now continue in opera
ton, with perhaps a two or three weeks
shut down for repairs. A call was
also made for another conference of
steel sheet manufacturers and workmen
on Thursday. The last conference adj
journed without date and the call issued
to-day is thought to indicate a DISPOSE

concessions. One mill, the Ohio Falls

signed the scale, with the understand
ing that if there is a general reduction
it will get the benefit of it.

NOTICE OF GAG RULE.
Gladstone Prepares to Push the Home Rule
Bill Through Commons.


LONDON, June 2S.-Mr. Gladstone
made an announcement in the House of
Commons to-day which caused much
Joy among the Irish members and those
OF the Radical party who believe that
the time has come for throwing out
many of the amendments to the home
rule bill offered by the opposition for
the purpose of delaying the passage of
the measure. Mr.. Gladstone stated
that tomorrow he would move the
adoption of a resolution calling upon
the House to expedite the passage of
the bill. This announcement was greet
ed with cheers by the supporters of the
government. Mr.. Gladstone said that
the resolution he proposed to move
resolution offered in 1857.
After Mr. Gladstone had announced
his forthcoming resolution, A. J. Bal
four, leader OF the opposition, asked
that the terms of the resolution be COM
municated to the opposition leaders be-
fore they We're publicly stated in
the House. With subtle irony
Mr.. Gladstone informed Mr.. Balfour
that the resolution was based on the
proposal made by the Conservatives by
which the crimes act was rushed
through parliament in 1887. This reply
evoked hearty laughter and a hurricane
of cheers from the Irish benches. Mr..
Baifour was not at all put out by the
answer, and as Mr.. Gladstone resumed
his seat Mr.. Balfour smilingly bowed
toward him.
When the prime minister was seated
his elated supporters rushed into the
Hobbies where they discussed the gov
ernment's plan. The Irish members
are jubilant. The consensus Of opinion
is that some such action could not with
safety be longer delayed. If this action
had not. been taken it would not have
been long before there would have been
open revolt instead OF mutterings in the
Irish ranks against the government.
