Nicaragua Ready to Pay the Indemnity

MANAGUA, Nicaragua, April 80 The
Nicaraguan government has formally
decided to accede to the compromise
proposition for the settlement of the
pending trouble and this decision has
been communicated to the authorities
at Washington and London. According
to this proposition Nicaragua agrees to
pay the $500 pounds in London fifteen
days from the time British ships leave
the harbor of Corinto 1t remains for
Great Britain to agree to this condition.
The governments course is regarded ss
shifting on Great Britain ali further
responsibility for the trouble. The
most positive assurances OF prompt
payment Of the money have been given
80 that there may be no question Of un-
certainty On this point.

dertake to vigorously pursue tho moro
respectable places where liquor is snrrep-
titiously sold. 1t is not of physical
kind, of course; it is an adverse public
sentiment. Every officer that has ever
vigorously enforced the law has felt 1t,
and many of them have been paralyzed
by it. Occasionally man has stood up
against it only to find himself turned
down at the next election. 1t is useless
to say that it is as easy for an officer to
enforce a law when he is surrounded by
an adverse sentiment as when the people
are encouraging and assisting him.
Even Gen. Dow himself, impervious as he
usually is to considerations of expediency,
seems to have thought on one occasion
that the better part of valor was dlscre-
ton, for we find this in his testimony be-
fore the Canadian Commission:
There were formerly great many clubs
in Portland. When The law came to be
executed pretty vigorously great many
young men and a good many boys had
clubs * and so we had the law
changed SO as to say that any place OF
resort where liquor was sold or kept or
to $1,000 fine They shut them all up
Some person came to me and said: There
is the Cumberland club run by gentle
men here, who make a drinking place Of
it and it ought to be shut up. mo,
said 81 do not think it is worth while to
shut that up, because, in the first place,
it will make great row if you do and
where persons are bound to commit
suicide you cannot prevent them. You
may delay suicide for a few weeks Or q
few months but finally any man bound
to commit suicide will do So | said:
eff the people of the Cumberland Club
wish to 60 to the devil, do not see how
we can very we'll interfere to prevent
Them
AS the suicide and go-to .the-devil argu-
ment was just as applicable to other
clubs as to the Cumberland Club, it must
be evident that it was the prospect of
'big row. that led the General to coun-
sci letting this club alone.

ers to Portland, Maine, from Boston The
steamer Atlantic was in command OF

In 1856 Capt. e. A. Prince was in COM
mand of steamer Forest City and steamer

For Calais, Eastport and ST. Johns the

For Bangor, there was steamer Boston,
Capt Il. H. Sanford; for Bath and Au-
gusta and Hallowell steamer Governor,

In 1856 there was the steamer Admiral

Capt. E. H. Sanford
In 1859 and go there was the steamer
Eastern Queen and State of Maine for
Bath, Hallowell and Augusta, Capt.
Jason Collins, master. Every Tuesday
and Friday eve.
Capt. Enos Field was in command the
old steamer New England of St. John
line in 1868 when wrecked on the Wolves
off Grand Manan.
Cant 4. B. Winchester had the steamer
@l,o fo,.
number of years. He died in Chelsea q
few years ago.
Capt. Field still lives at an advanced
age. They were the two oldest captains
on the ST. John line steamers.
In 1928 great event happened in Port
land harbor, when the steamer Patent of
100 tons arrived. The first steamer ever
brought in to Maine was bought in New
York to run from Portland to Boston
g le was owned by Capt. Seward Porter
He had placed in 1922 an old er CINE on a
flat boat and run it to North Yarmouth,
Maine. This craft he named the "Ken-
nebec" The people called her the 6 Horned
Hog
The Porters had a shipyard at Free
port, Maine where they built vessels and
the famous privateer Dash was built
there for the war of 1919. Three of the
Porter brothers were lost on board the
privateer Dash when she went down in
snow storm off Portland and were never

LEEDS { PENNINGTON
r.. IL. CO.
First Mortgage 6 per cert Bonds.
DUE JULY I, 1896.

We have bought $633,0OO Maine
Central Consol. 4's, due 1912, and
offers the holders OF Leeds and Far
mington SIS, the opportunity to ex-
change the same for the former on
the following favorable terms.
On or before Nov. 10Th, 1895, we
will deliver Maine Central Consol. AS
at par, and prepay the interest due
April lst, 1896, at 4 per cent per an
mum for the unexpired time, receiv-
ing in exchange an equal number of
Leeds and Pennington bonds, allow
ing par and 6 per cent accrued in
terest to date of exchange.
The above is equivalent to selling
the Leeds & Pennington bonds on a
8 rs per cent interest basis, and OBJ
tanning the long consolidated As at
par, by using the premium obtained
on the former in purchasing the As.
We beg to call attention to the
fact that these 4 per cent bonds are
now practically a first mortgage on
the road, as there will be only ST.
25S,300 outstanding when the
Leeds & Pennington are converted
out of total OF $9,00o,000, to take
the place Of prior lien bonds; in five
years this balance will have been re-
tired and the consolidated mortg~ge
become a first lien.
The saving in the interest charges
in the next few years is approx
mately $4,000; this is IN addition to
amount saved in 1894 of $4,000,
making total Of nearly 100000 or
2 per cent on the stock; increasing
the present net earnings to over
100000 or 10 per cent. on the capt.
tai; 6 per cent. is now paid, the bal
ance going to surplus und improve
ments.
We recommend the proposed ex-
change at this time, the holders
thereby obtaining long, choice Sc
curity at a moderate cost.
The As not exchanged, as above,
will be offered to the public at an
advanced price.

Gen. Neal Dow, who, We very strongly
suspect is the ex-Mayor who furnished
one of the city clergymen with the infor-
nation that the prohibitory law is the
easiest of the statutes to enforce, under
he happened to be eighteen months put
ting down one single rumshop under this
easily enforced law. The trouble was in the
law, he says and the way it was admins
tered. The law is practically the same
now as when Gen. Dow pursued this
rumseller and as he himself oversaw it's
administration in this case it is pretty
safe to conclude that there was not much
fault there. The fact is that when Gen.
Dow related his experience with the afore-
mentioned rumshop he was arguing to
prove that it was practically impossible to
close the rumshops under the exising law,
and he cited his personal experience to
support his argument. Precisely the same
idea crops out in his testimony before the
Canadian commission when he says, The
liquor traffic can never be put down so
long as there is any profit remaining in
it. My conviction is settled, that we can
never sweep out entirely the liquor traffic
in the lifetime of the Republican party,
because they refuse to give us amend
ments to the law which are absolutely
necessary towards that end just now
Gen. Dow is looking at the matter from
another standpoint and things appear
differently.
But not only is the testimony of Gen.
Dow of q few years ago opposed to his
present position, but so is the evidence of
mon who have been directly concerned in
the supple ssion of the traffic, as we'll as
tho general observation and experience
of all persons who have watched the
business during the past twenty five
years When Sheriff Cram was before the
Canadian Commission, he was asked
this question:
Given an officer who wants to discharge
his duties, does he find some difficulties
in the way of the enforcement?
And his reply was:
Yes, indeed, it is a very difficult thing
And the Hon. George P. Wescott, who
has been as familiar as any other man
in this city, with the practical operation
Of the law, since he has constantly EN-
ployed for many years large numbers of
laboring men, gave it as his opinion that
sit was impossible in this city or any

But testimony is not needed to show
that this law is difficult of enforcement.
The very nature of the case shows that
it must be. There is no 'aggrieved party
to complain or to push the prosecution.
The officers of the law must do every
thing. But not only do the officers get
gerry little assistance, they also meet with
