Facts of the Case,


WASHINGTON, March 12.-No report has
reached the State Department of the pur-
suit of and firing at the merchant ship Al
Ganca off the Cuban coast by Spanish
warship, and in the absence of definite
and properly substantiated statement of
the facts the officials positively decline to
pass judgment in the matter.
The questions involved are those touch
ing the right of search of merchant vessels
upon the high seas, and on this subject
there is and always has been great differ
ence OF opinion and practice among ma
tions. The records of the State Depart
naent, however, show that several rules
limiting the search right have been clearly
laid down by our own courts and have
been accepted for the guidance OF our Gov
eminent in dealing with these questions.

lost husband, and who finally reached
Portland last Saturday night, with only
S. and her own strong hands and brave
heart between her family and restitution
Yesterday morning the PRESS office
was visited by Thomas Reid, of Sanford
ex-deputy sheriff, of York county. He
brought with him an extraordinary mes
| sage. He came as the representatiy OF
Mr.. Thomas Goodall, proprietor of the
great plush mills, at Sanford. He said
that Mr. Goodall (whose benevolenoe is
widely known thro ughout the State) had
read the article in the PRESS and taken
great interest in the brave little Scotch
mother. He had sent for Mr.. Reid, be-
cause the latter is a Scotchman and had
commissioned him to come to Portland
and find Mrs. Williamson and bring to
her the following extraordinary good
news. He was to tell her that Mr..
Goodall offered to give her rent in San
| for Ho xuO1I16 oil
provide the rent with furniture and beds
and bedding and herself and children
with fuel and provisions and look after
them for year.
Mr.. Goodall sent by kMr. Reid $40 to
give to Mrs Williamson whether she de-
cided to accept the offer or not
| After Mr. Reid had delivered his mes
! age in the PRESS Office, the next thing
to do was to discover the whereabouts OF
Mrs. Williamson. Inquiry at the police
station resulted in an expedition by Mr..
Reid and a PRESS representative to the
old Printers Exchange, at the corner of
Center sand Fore streets. In room
on the second floor Mrs. Williamson and
her five children were found.
| Mr. Reid delivered his extraordinary
good news. Mrs. Williamson could hard
ly believe it apparently. She seemed
dazed during the entire interview. She
said that of course she would accept the
offer, and they all went out to Sanford
yesterday afternoon.
This aid of Mr.. Goodall is
characteristic. That sort Of thing
is not unusual with him. His benevo-
lence is as we'll known as is the famous
plush of his great mills. One cannot help
rejecting that this incident is very appro-
pirate to the time of year and that to this
Scotch mother and her five children the
merry Christmas time is going to be in
finitely brighter and happier than it
promised to be when she reached the
Union station almost destitute, and passed
the night on the bare seats there, with
hor five little children around her.
