Kineo Co. Brings Action Against Kenne
bee Log Driving Co. for Property Dam
age. a y aa9

One of the important cases argued be-
fore the law court yesterday was that of
the Kineo Co. VS.. the Kennebec Log
Driving Company. Hon. o. d. Baker Of
Augusta and Hon. j. B. Peaks of Dover
appeared for. the defendants and Hon. 6.
F. Woodland and Henry Hudson of Bangor
for the plaintiffs. The Kineo Compa-
ny claims that between the years 1887
and 1891 inclusive its wharves and land
were overflowed at Kineo, where the Kin
60 House is located, ON Moosehead Lake.
That portion of land was washed away,
buildings and wharyes much damaged in
consequence of the Kennebec Log Driving
Company's dams at the East and West
outlets of Moosehead Lake overfiowino
to a great extent.
The Kennebec Log Driving Company
claims both dams were practically the
same effective height in the years COM
planned of as twenty years or more prior
to that. I he company also claims that
neither dam was raised during that peri
cd and that the high water complained of
by the Kineo Company was due to extra
ordinary floods and wholly of natural
causes. Over 81, 900 is involved in the
sniff

The BIake-Shaw Case.

The Standish assault case was called up
in the Municipal court yesterday morning
but neither : E. S. Blake or Albert S.
Shaw appeared They were both in the
recorders office, however, in charge of
their attorneys. Under the criminal law,
the party injured may with the consent
of the court take certain sum that may
be agreed upon. This relieves the re-
spondent from further action of criminal
prosecution. Shaw files an acknowledge
ment of satisfaction and the costs
amounting to the sum of s13 was agreed
to be paid by Blake.

The shaw-B.ake Case Dismissed.

In the Municipal Court yesterday morn
ing the case of Albert 8. Shaw vs. Eliab
Blake was brought up and settled. This
is the so-called Standish shooting case,
wherein Blake was alleged to have used a
shot gun on Shaw. The complaint made
against Blake, however, was .for simple
assault, and in such cases the aggrieved
party may file an acknowledgement of sat-
isfaction. This Mr.. Shaw did, SO the
case was dismissed. Swasey appeared
for Blake, and Seiders & Chase for Shaw.

A ToPsAlL SCHOONER.
Antiquated Rig Adapted to the Uses of a
Modern yessel-The Deer Hill and Her
Cargo.

The vessel Deer Hill, belonging in
Nova Scotia, arrived from Porto Rico
yesterday noon. She is remarkable in
two respects. In the first place she brings
nearly a Thousand tierces, hogsheads and
barrels of molasses, one of the largest
cargoes to arrive in this port for many a
day. In the second place the rigging
of the Deer Hill is peculiar. All the
mariners on the water front were puzzled
by her. Most called ner barkentine.
AS she had three masts, and the foremast
had yards. But she is not barkentine
She is three masted topsail schooner.
Years ago the old two masted topsail
schooner were common. A very few have
survived until this time. But such a
thing as a three masted topsail schooner
was unheard of before yesterday to most
of the tars on the water front
The Deer Hill is a new vessel, apparent
ly of about 500 tons burden, and is a
beautiful vessel. The foremast carries a
fore Eand aft sail, besides large
square foresail. This mast also has a
double topsail and top-gallant sail,
The other two masts have the ordinary
fore and aft rig.
The Deer Hill is commanded by Capt.
G. w. Burns. He had a good, pleasant
voyage The cargo is consigned to VIM
G. Soule, agent for the Toussigs.

Answer to the Case of II. B. Coo.

City Solic itor Wilford G. Chap
man, yesterday filed in the Su-
preme court an answer of the case
of Harry B. Coe 1t will be remembered
that the committee on public buildings
made an agreement to sell certain lot
of land on Pine street to Mr.. Coe and
then reconsidered This bill is to compel
the specific performance of the city gov
ernment. The city defends on the ground
that the order of the council directing the
committee to dispose of the land did not
authorize the contract as made.
