the Board will feel justified in granting
liquor licenses to "pork pie" places. 1t
Is safe to say that no person taking out a
victualing house license can get a liquor
license.
Last year the Board took the stand that
those who had "pork pie" licenses could
not have a liquor license, but one man did
get both by not doing as one OF the Com
missioners said he agreed to do. The
Board could do nothing 30 the matter was
allowed to drop. This year the Board will
take the same stand as last year, and no
person taking out "pork pie" license can
take out liquor license and place can.

ever, good many Of those who have Ii
censes have signified their intentions OF
trying to secure them again this year.
A member of the Board said: "In regard
to the circular sent around yesterday
matters have been conducted too loosely.
The law states In relation to entrances
that there shall be no entrances except
from public travelled way"
1t will be seen by reading the circular
that the Board has interpreted that clause
by concluding that public travelled way
is an accepted and laid out street. The
trouble Of Sunday selling to women has
been that there are too many side doors
opening into yards, alleys, Railways, etc.
A saloon can have only one entrance.
In regard to screens and patitions that
matter was explained aud no person
taking out victusling house license will
be granted liquor license

WORCESTER, Mass. April B-The daring
burglary at William II. Goulding's Har-

fessed.
Mr.. and Mrs. Goulding are In Florida,
and the only occupants of the house on the
night Of the burglary were Louis, two ser
wants and his cousin, who is visiting there.
The circumstances of the burglary were
peculiar, and suspicion pointed to the
Oldest son, Harry, who did not sleep at
home that night.
Louis has lately been spending more
money than his father allowed, and has
been selling some Of the jewelry at low fig
ures, and in order to clear himself, planned
the burglary. The fire was unlocked for,
being set by his stepping on match as he
was ascending the stairs after ransacking

BY A STARTLING STORY.
Claims to Have Killed Them at the In
stigation Of q Jealous Count.

VIENNA, April 5.-The Crown Prince
but the prompt action of the commander
of the imperial guards saved the imperial
family from a new disgrace. The news
papers have dismissed the matter with the
following paragraph: Joseph Stark, q
young forester in the service of the i'm
perial house has been removed to the st ate
insane asylum Of lower Austria.
Joseph Stark, it seemed, had a story to
tell, and his friends allege that his incarcer-
alton in a lunatic asylum is the best means
to keep him from telling it. They claim
that the young forester is not insane.
stark's story.
He appeared the other day before the
commander of the imperial body guard to
make the following statsmsut He said
he had killed Crown Prince Ru-
dolph aud the Countess Vetsera and that
certain count had paid him to commit the
crime
This count. he said, was a suitor for the
hand of the Countess Vetsera, and had
quarreled with Crown Prince Rudolph on
account of the young woman. He Is Inn
mensely rich and could well afford to pay
a hired murderer, if he should choose to
employ one. That the count should stoop
80 low is almost incredible. II Stark's
story had been given to the press, there
would have been, nevertheless, thousands
ready TO believe it.
Interest in the Meyerling drama Is as
live as ever, and it needs only such q story
as above related to produce the widest ex-
citement in Vienna and throughout
Austria. The fact is, the death Of the
crown prince Is
As Much IA Mystery rs Ever,
and while it may be ungenerous to pay
any attention TO Starks story, 1t is not
wholly improbable.
1t has always been argued that Crown
Prince Rudolph was not the man to kill
woman and commit suicide. 1t was also
limited that some forester officials killed
him and the countess who had been a wit
ness to the murder of Rudolph.
The decision of the commander of the
imperial guard to send Stark to an asylum
is also looked upon with suspicion By
those who doubted the stories of Ru-
dolph's death which were given out for
publication at the time of the sensational
tragedy
