else, an energetic street commissioner !;
one who is not afraid of shovel, and at
the same time sufficiently intelligent
and observant to use his time and the
limited means at his disposal to the best
advantage Many of the streets, the
brewery grade and the road through

ing spikes. This condition could very
easily be improved.
The next combined marshal and street
commissioner will have no idle time on
his hands, but there is no reason why
one man cannot perform the duties of
both Offices and do the work well. We
await with interest the action of the
mayor elected today in the matter of the
appointment of street commissioner and
marshal.

The capture of PSI big sword fish by the
schooner Albert Black in the last five
weeks was not effected without some
pretty narrow escapes from the swords OF
the fierce fish. During this last TRIP
when 119 fish were caught, one cory was
pierced three times by the swords: once
the sword went up close by a mans back.
OF course hissescape from serious INJURY
or death was very narrow one. IN an
other boat one of the swords came up SO
close to a mans foot that it passed be-
tween his trousers and his oil skins and
ripped the latter clear up to the hip. On
the previous trip four swords pierced the
boats, making eight swords in all.

The Cape Electrics Are to Cross Portland
Bridge at Once-City Electrics Will Not
Be Running for Two weeks-The elt
Line, Etc.
Immediately, as soon as the city govern
ment shall give its sanction, begin the
construction Of some new and important
work. Rails,are now being laid from
East Deering postoffice to Tukey's bridge.
AS soon as the city government gives its
sanction, rails will be laid along Wash
ingron street, from Congress street to the
city end of the bridge. Until the new
draw is built the rails cannot be laid ov-
er the BRIDGE SO temporarily barge will
be used to transfer passengers Thus
there will be completed and in running
order this fall the long expected belt line
around Back Cove.
Another important improvement will
be the laying of the track along Portland
1t is proposed to use this line for travel
between Union Station and the lower
part OF the city, including the steamers.
Express electrics will be run from Union
Station via Portland street, making the
run in much quicker time than can be
made by the Congress street electrics
which have to stop to take on and let off
people. The double track on Portland
street from Preble to Green, and the
double track up Green street, will facili-
tate this.
In general the Deering and Westbrook
electrics will have their terminus at the
head of Preble street, as at present; but
the late night cars will run down Middle
street to the steamer wharyes to take
Deering and Westbrook people as they get
off the boats and carry them home
1t is probable that it will be two weeks
before the city electrics will start up
The machinery could have been started
during the fair, but in view of the fact
that there was large system to operate
and the crews were not thoroughly
trained, Manager Newman wisely deter
mined to wait until all was permanently
ready.
Tho crossing of Portland bridge has
been adjusted between the County Com
missioners and the officers of the Portland
and Cape Elizabeth Electric road. The
track will come across and the bridge
will not be widened at present IT, is
probable thatEthe work of extending the
line across the bridge will begin this
week. Cars were running to Rigby Park
yesterday and will run today.

MARSHALS WARNED.
Secretary oIney Calls Out a New Force
 Against FnIbusters.

WASHINGTON, June l5.-Atturney Gen. eral Harmon has received tho following letter from the secretary of state relative to reported filibuSterinR expeditions against Cuba:
 newspaper report that at various points in tho United States attempts are being made, by the enlistment of men, the equip ment and arming of vessels and by other illegal measures, to aid the insurreotion now in progress in the island of Cuba. While this department has not been fur nished with tangible evidence confirma- tory of such rumors and reports it deems 1t of great importance that no possible opportunity be given for complaints that the government of the United States has in any respect fallen short of its full duty to friendly nation.
 It is respectfully suggested, therefore that the United states attorneys and mar shals for the several districts embracing the coast line between New York and Brownsville have their attention called to this subject, and Do specially en joined to United States are faithfully observed and all violations thereof promptly and wig orouSly prosecuted "
 Complying with Mir. Olney's sugges- ton. Attorney General Harmon has di. rected that all tho United States attor- neys and marshals for the Atlantic coast line districts act in conjunction and take all steps necessary and proper to pre- vent any violation of the neutrality laws acting promptly and vigorously.
