Both Parties Are Prominent in Bidde-

City Building.
ESPECIAL TO THE PREss.1


Biddeford, November 11.-The Evening
Record. Biddeford's new daily, has S5ooo
libel suit on its hands. The papers were
served this evening on the proprletoTs,
and tomorrow another similar suit, grow
ing out of the same matter. will be COM
menced against Lawyer Charles 1.
Read.
Mr.. Read is young man who came
into local prominence few years ago, by
his election as city solicitor, during the
administration of M ayor Staples. lie IS
the same man who. in the warm
municipal campaign Of two years ago,
challenged Lawyer Benjamin 4. Hamil-
ton Of Biddeford to joint debate relative
to certain alleged statements OF the latter
in speech at WATERFORD.
DR.. Warren is one Of Maine's best
known surgeons, who won distinction in
his profession during the war He has
served several terms, as mayor of Bidde-
ford, and at the present time is a member
of the commit ttee appointed by the city
council, to superintend the construction
of Biddefords S building.
In Saturdays Record was published
this communication, over the signature
of Lawyer Read.
"This afternoon DR.. F. G. Warren told
me that the reason why the insurance on
the old city building was dropped, was
beause E. Fl. Cove, who had been in
structed to renew the insurance, had
neglected his duty. The information the
doctor gave me, was in his usual
pyrotechnic style, and in the presence of
number of good citizens, and therefore
I felt the matter ought to be investigated.
Ii have investigated the statement. and
in view of what I have heard, take
pleasure in denouncing the doctor, or any
one else who may state the same, as a
liar
1t was on account of the publication of
this communication that the suit against
the Records proprietors was brought.
Lawyer George f. Haley, counsel ior
DR.. Warren, was tonight at work on q
lengthy writ which will be served on
Lawyer Read j,
In conversation tonight with the
PRESS correspondent DR. Warren said
he firmly believed the statement he made
to Lawyer Read, regarding the insurance
matter and that later investigation has
confirmed that belief. He added that he
did not intend to stand such an un-
provoked insult as had been published,
and that both suits would be pushed to
the fullest extent.
Dr. Warren is an extensive owner OF
Biddeford real estate, and the Record
office is located in one of his buildings.

Had Cheers for Smith and Iselin and the
Opposite for the Briton.
New York, November 11.-Up to noon
today no request had been received at the
New York Yacht club from MI. Q. Oliver
Iselin, asking that the charges brought
against him by Lord Dunrayen be in
vestigated.
1t is generally known among yachts
men, however, that such a request is to
be made, and it's arrival at the yacht club
is hourly expected.
A meeting of the club will then be held
at once, and committee will probably
be appointed to act as court of inquiry.
Former Commodore James D. Smith,
chairman of the cup committee read Mr..
Iselin's statement at his office this morn
ing.
$50 he calls Dunraven liar and a
blackguard, does he?" he exclaimed.
ssWell, that is the way to talk. There are
times when it's altogether wrong to in
dulge in polite talk. On occasions like
this men should speak their minds, and
am glad to say that in my opinion, Mr
Iselin has taken the right course"
About H. 80 when ex-Commodore Smith
appeared upon the floor of the Stock
Exchange, he was surrounded by a large
number of prominent brokers, who shook
him by the hand and commended him for
his rebuke to Lord Dunraven.
Business was suspended for the time.
Suddenly one broker shouted, what's

A thousand voices vociferously replied:

WILL SHE COME OFF?
Nothing Was Accomplished Toward Float
ing the Puritan Yesterday.

New London, Conn, November H.
Whether or not the steamer Puritan can
be got off the rocks at Great Gull today
is doubtful, even under the most favor
able conditions that can prevail.
The boat is so far upon the rocks that
more than ordinary high tide is needed to
assist in floating her. Mariners say it
will not come today as the wind has
shifted from the northwest to the north
east.
Wrecker Scott and lighter returned to
the Puritan this morning to prosecute the
work of preparing the vessel for the at
tempt to float her at high water this
afternoon. A powerful wrecking tug
from New York it also at the scene.
The opinion is gaining ground that the
condition of the Puritan is worse than
when she went on.
Her bow cannot be lifted from the
rocks as it is impossible to get at that
part of the boat There are eighteen feet
of water at her stern, SO that if the bow
could be raised it would materially assist
in floating the vessel. As the situation
is. the work is more difficult than ap-
peared at first.
Superintendent Gardner was again at
the wreck today and will remain during
the progress of the work.
The fact is recalled that in recen years
all accidents to the big steamers have
occurred on Saturday night. The Massa-
chusetts, City of Worcester and the
Puritan went ashore Saturday night.
