Increased Mail Service Too Costly.

The second assistant postmaster general
has acknowledged the receipt of petit
ion signed by business men of Portland,
for an increase of the mail service on
route 1882, Boothbay Harbor to Wiscas-
set, during the winter season, in order
that round trip might be made, leav-
ing Wisoasset in the morning and Booth
bay Harbor in the afternoon. In reply
he says that careful consideration has
been given this matter and the depart
ment has decided against an increase OF
the service, as it does not feel justified
in mourning the expenditure ($333. 10 per
annum) that would be necessary in Or
der to authorize such increase.

JOHN WATSON DISCHARGED.
Judge MchEanus Finds No Case Against
Him.

John Watson of Spurwink, the man
criminal assault on one Nellie Brown,
also of Spurwink, was brought before
Trial Justice McManus at South Port
land, yesterday. Mr.. Edwin e. Heckber
appeared for the defence. The Brown
girl testified to the circumstances of the
alleged assault, describing them in detail.
The defense took the ground that the
charge had been trumped up for the pur-
pose of disposing of Watson because he
had interfered to break up improper rela-
ton between his brother, William
Watson, who has wife in Maitland, N.
S., and the Brown woman. There was
considerable evidence of improper con-
duct between William Watson and Miss
Brown, and the story of the assault was
discredited by the testimony of several
persons who were close at hand when it
was alleged to have occurred that they
heard no noise nor outcry. The defendant
testified in his own behalf, alleging that
he was the victim Of a conspiracy, and
that his brother and the Brown woman
wanted to got rid Of him because he had
tried to break up their improper rela-
lions, and that the Brown woman had
oace said to him that she would have
him crushed.
In summing UP for the defence Mr..
Heckbert argued very forcibly that the
evidence in the case did not show that
any assault had been committed but on
the contrary supported the theory of the
defence that the charge had been trumped
up for a wicked purpose. He
anlmadverted upon the conduct of the
complainant so severely that her father
burst forth with remonstrance, and be-
came so demonstrative that it was
necessary to remove him from the court
room. The Brown girls mother also
made lively demonstration of disap-
proyal.
After Mr. Reckbert concluded. Justice
McManus discharged the prisoner, and
there was loud applause in the court
room,

they paid in good times. If after
