AGAINST President Cleveland'S

Citizens ofthe Home of Wooden Ships,
irrespective of Party
Condemn the Scheme Which Means Death TO
the Whole Industry.

Bath, Dee l3,-(Spccian.- hall

less of politics, the meeting having been
called to take action on President Glove
lands advocating the passage of Il free ship
bin in his message 60 Congress, Mayor
James W. Wakefield presided and made II
brief address being followed by Hon. Ar
thur Sewall, who made ringing speech
against the passage Of such bill
Gen. y. W. Hyde then addressed the
meeting, making a speech that was I'M
answeT;bic. He was followed by John O.
Patten, Harold NJ. Scwall, +. G. Curtis,
Frank A. Palmer and ORA J.Fullcr. All
spoke in opposition to the bill, after which
the following resolutions were adopted:
The citizens Of Bath, assembled with
out distinction of party, address this ap-
neal to Congress, and their fellow cnun-
trymcn. Within the district of Bath,
American shipbuilding had its birth.
Bath has built moro sailing tonnage en-
gagged i'm the foreign and coastwiso trade
than any other city in the country.
Bv right therefore Of interest, 70 tho
light Of a century and half of experience.
as shin owners not less than shipbuldcrs
and ON behalf Of the entire population of
our city. who would be deprived of their
means Of livelihood by the destruction of
our sole industry, we protest against
change in the laws which have protected
that Industry from the first year of the
federal government.
Tho demand for the change comcs not
from those who hpvc ever contributed 90
our merchant marine, nor FROM those VII
desire TO do SO now. II comes insdiously
from agents Of alien principals, who, haN-
ing secure our carrying trade, now seek tho
protection Of our flag Tor usc in an Euro
pcan war, which without this protection
means their ruin.
The change proposed docs not mean
| ships free for our people, but the loan of
our flag to our commercial rivals. 1t
cannot build up our merchant mnrinc, for
the denial of the privilege 10 grants did
not cause its dCcadonce
| The question is not one Of politics Tho
| laws which stand between us and disaster
\ were approved by Washington, and their
| wisdom has never until now been critici-
( zcd by an American President nor is 10
I question Of section. Along the Atlantic,
| on the Pacific and the shores Of the great
/ lakes American enterprise las planted
shpyaris, whose products under the pro
/ lection of these laws rank our nation in
domestic tonnage first among the nations
/ Of the world.
/ The industry for which we plead is u
/ bulwarl. Of national defence. The glorics
| Of our navy we owe to the shipynrds OF
I the land to the mechanics they trained,
and to the sailors bred on the ships they
| built.
! And the country ought not 20 forget
| the fact that the Ilrst blow struck at this
/ historic industry, blow from which 1t
/ has never recovered, was struck by the
war for the Union, which this industry
more than any other of the land helped

THE WEST AND THE TARIFF.
Views OF Western Men Expressed-Meeting OF
Republican Congressional Committee.

Washington, Dec 13.-The fact was
developed at "a meeting, today of the Re
publican congressional committee, that
the Western men particularly those from
the trans Mississippi country, are enthus-
iastically in favor of extreme tariif rates
Discussion on this point was provoked
by the declaration of Delegate Flynn of
Oklahoma, who remarked: 1.-The West
is not stuck on high tariff, although the
Republicans of that country are sturdy
supporters of the principle of protective
tariff" " The discussion was general
and was mainly participated in by West
ern representatives.
Mr.. Bartholdt of Missouri, said that
the Republicans of his state admired GOV.
Mckinley, and if he should not be the
standard bearer in the next campaign ii
was because in the minds of the people he
was looked upon as the aposts, of too eX-
tremc views on the tariff.
Mr.. Boutelle of Maine, insisted that the
Republicans throughout the country
fought the recent campaign substantially
on the ground of endorsing the tariff ac-
tion of the Republican party ana 1t was
patent to everybody that the great vic
tories of 1894 were upon that issue.
Senator Powers of Montana, asked Mr..
Boutclle what he knew about the West
and if he made any speeches there during
the recent campaign.
Mr.. Boutclle replied that he had spoken
in Ohio
Senator Powers rctortcd that ONO was
no longer regarded as Western state.
senator Carey of Wyoming, advised
moderation on the part Of Republicans III
all matters of legislation, owing to the
unsettled condition of the public mind in
that part of the country regarding every
thing in which New York and New Eng
land arc interested
Mr.. Wilson of Washington, said there
were other things to engage the attention
of the party in the West besides the tariff.
He mentioned finance as one He believed
that if the Republican party controlled
both branches of the government iVwould
solve this problem as it had solved every
other serious question with which 1t had
been confronted.
A resolution was adopted continuing
the headquarters at Washington until
March / > approving the committee worn
during the campaign just ended; and re
commanding a continuation of the "cdu-
cational campaign.

SERIES OF MISFORTUNES
Has Swept Away Wealth of James W.
Carver of Auburn.
His Last Property Destroyed by fire-Loss
$4,000; Insurance, $4,000.

Lewiston, Dec. 13.- (SpeciaD 1.-The
residence of James W. Carver on the
Turner road, was burned, this evening
about 6 o'clock. Mrs. Carver went into
the stable with lighted lamp, which she
unfortunately dropped at the bottom of
the stable stairs. In a moment the fire
was under way and in a little while was
beyond control.
The alarm was sent in to the city, and
the fire department started to respond
but in turning from Dennison street into
Whitney, a front wheel of the hook and
ladder truck broke under, wrecking the
truck and throwing n dozen firemen
violently to the ground, though beyond
a rough shaking up the men were not in
jured. The fire was beyond the reach of
the water system and all that could be
done was to save the furniture and watch
the house burn. Mr.. Carver estimates his
loss at S6000 and had an insurance on all
of $1,000.
Mr. Carver has had bad luck of late
yers, but few years ago being worth
$50, 0O0 and by a series of misfortunes, his
property being reduced to the buildings
just burned.

BLAKE BOUND OVER.
Held in S2500 for Assault-PortIand veterin
AIRY Fined for Cruelty.

Portland, Dec. 13-Hcrbert Blake o
NJ. Rand, Esq, this morning, on the
charge of assault on Deputy United sta eS
Marshal Prescott The testimony was tC
the effect that he hit Mr.. Prescott a severe
blow in the face as the latter was entering
Blakes house. Blake was bound over il
S2500 for trial at the next term OF court
Dr. Maxwell, the well known veterinary
surgeon, was before the municipal court
this morning for cruelty to a horse. W
q. Chapman, Esq, appeared against HIM
end f. II. Cobb, Esq, defended him Mr..
Eben n. Perry, agent of the Humane So
cety, made the arrest.
1t appears that DR.. Maxwell was called
to the city stables to treat a horse suffer
ing from collie. He proceeded to pour in
to the horses ear some powerful blister
ing liquid, with the idea of making the
poor beast thrash his head around Sc
vigorously that the violent motion would
start the gas which had collected in and
around the stomach of the horse.
The treatment succeeded far beyond the
expectations of the doctor. The horse
beat his head on the floor in the most acute
agony, so that it was necessary to pad
the stall with bags to keep him from
pounding his skull to pieces. Finally the
horse died most painful death and a
post mortem examination showed that his
ear was blistercd all over the inside III
the most horrible manner.
The defence tried to show that the IL
uuid which was poured into the horsc's eai
was harmless, but Judge Gould could not
be made to believe that story. he fineC
DIR. Maxwell $50 and costs for excessive
cruelty to the horse.
Harry W. Morgan, as he calls himself,
was before Judge Gould, this morning
IN Il charge of passing forged check al
the Preble house. Frank W. Robinson,
$50 appeared as counsel for Morgan, who
waived examination and was bound over
70 the January grand jury in the sum oi
$500. Young Morgan is evidently glvlne
a false name. He says it would kill his
mother if she should learn of his disgrace
He evidently is well educated and says h'
S a college student. He is IA fine looking
young man.
