THOROUGHLY MAD.
Alderman Carrigan Of Lewiston, Arouses
Temper Of City Marshal Teel.

Lewiston. Nov. Especial. is a
sation at the meetings Of the Lewiston city
government, and last nights meeting was
no exception. During a hot passage ct
words, that savorcd more of politics than
of business. Alderman Carrigan made the
announcement that he believed the
liquor seized by the marshal and
his officers, We're removed from
the city building without orders.
He also stated that he believed the police
officers to be in league with liquor sellers,
and in n number of cases protected them
from seizure.
This charge of Alderman Carrigan' 5
stirred things somewhat at the time, and
this morning was the topic of conversation
on the street. The Journal called on
City Marshal Tecl, today, and asked him
if he had anything To say about the
charges made by Carrigan. The marshal
was mad clear through, and there was
considerable fire in his optics as he
answered:
Anything to say? Wen, | should say
have. This is an unwarrantcd, nonsense
Cui dttdth upon me, anu up iipt plpl't1'
to let it pass unnoticcd. In the first place
do not take any orders regarding the dis
position of seized liquors from Mr.. Carri-
gan or any other alderman. The most OF
our seizures are made at night, or in the
early morning. The stuff is invariably
brought to the city building libcllcd, and
then removed to the storchousc on Lisbon
street until time To De spilled, the hard
liquor of course going over To Auburn to
the sheriff as the law requires.
"If Mr.. Carrigan had taken the trouble
to examine the records he might easily
have ascertaincd where the liquors that
my men and myself have seized have gone.
As for removing them from the city
building. there is no room there to store
them since the liquor agency was enlarged,
and we store them on Lisbon street. If
Mr.. Carrigan had asked the city treasurer
about the money returned for empty YES
sells. he would have learned that in the
into the treasury money received for the
sale of empty vessels only enc dollar less
than was ever turned in in a whole year.
"Whcn Mr.. Carrigan makes any charges
against this department that are worthy
of investigation. ] will be only too
anxious that an investigation 60 on. "
Mr.. Tecl has prepared long and inter
esting letter to be published in the local
papers reviewing some things of import
ancc to his department, and criticiSing

This is an action of trovcr to recover the

He says that while his apples We're in

Dowan. that subsequently he saw Cowar
and asked about the apples which werl

promised that within three day
the mill would be running and the
apples manufactured into cider; that he
subsequently saw Covan after the apples
had dccayed and asked him who was tc

he didn't know.
The plaintiffs claim is that the defcn-
dant assumed the contract of Jones. The
defendant contends that the transaction
between the plaintiff and Jones was 4
sale of the apples to the latter. The
defence introduced no testimony. A YER

missioner has decided to build in every
town or township in that State one good
road along the most used route. The de-
sign is to build from seven to ten miles Of
road yearly in each county, and to spend
about half a million dollars annually in this

this will supply the State with as fine roads
as they have in Europe. Why cannot some
