THE OCEAN WEATHER.
photographic Office Issues Its Forecast OF
Ocean Weather for March.

Washington, March 3.-The hydrogra-
phc office, U. S. N, has issued its fore
cast of ocean weather for March, which
says:
Gales less frequent than in February
and not so violent Off the American coast
north of Hatteras occasional northwestern,
gales. Along the transatlantic steamer
routes gales about once in six days, with
periods of strong northeasterly winds
Near the Azores gales about once in IL
days Fog on the Grand banks and near
the New England coast. Ice ON the Grand
banks as far south as 43 deg. n, with field
ice south and east of Newfoundland.
Under "derelicts'' the report adds:
The number of derelicts has been largely
increased by the unusually stormy
weather of the past month, and the trans
A tlantic steamship routes are now OBJ
structed by them, as well as the gulf
stream region between the West Indies
and the 10th parallel.
"An exceptional feature is the large
group of recently abandoned vessels near
the eastern end of the trans Atlantic
routes. where two ships, five barks and two
unknown vessels We're abandoned by their
crews between the 18th and 18th OF Febru-
airy. Perhaps most of these are still afloat. y

REV. DAVID MARTIN
Says Cause Of His Trouble Was Not Being
Used to Ways Of America.

Westbrook March 3.--The resignation
of Rev. David Martin, who was reported
as preaching without being an ordained
pastor, was read, today, before the people
of the Warren Congregational chucrh, OF
which he was pastor 1t stated;
81 came to Maine six years ago,
stranger in n strange land, and during
tho four years at Cornish and a short time
in this city no one can say that my con-
duct was not becoming minister Of tho
gospel. My difficulty lies in the minister
ial usage of the Congregational churches
in America in contrast with the simplicity
of my own country (Scotland).
Had known this, | should have asked
for ordination at the time of my installa-
ton. l resign now, hoping to work in
new field under regular ordination. l
may, however, return to my own home,
where this will not be necessary" Tho
resignation is to take effect April 1.

GUILTY OF MURDER.
Jury Decides That Mrs. Cowan
Poisoned Her Stepson.
Annual Meeting Of Maife Interschol-
astic Athletic Association.
Death Of Gen. John L. Hodsdon. Names Fa.
nous War Adjutant General.

Bangor, March 3.-After being out one
hour and So minutes the jury in the
Mary Cowan case reported verdict of
murder in the first degree The defend
ant was charged with the killing of her
little stepson.
There was scene when Mrs. Cowan
came into court Is minutes before the
opening She was attended by her aged
father, and both INDUCED in alternate
weeping and talking. During the mo-
ments that the father appeared to control
himself he was repeating passages OF
Scripture to his daughter.
p II. Gillen made the closing argu-
mcnt for the defence, and soon after com
mencing proceeded to dcnounce the person
who acted Us the government informant
in the case and discuss his or her story.
Chief Justice Peters interposed, saying,
that as no such person was on the stand
and no such testimony introduced, Mr..
Gillcn was exceeding reasonable limits in
his argument and must cease.
The counsel was SO floored that he
asked permission to sit down for few
moments to develop his line of thought,
which was granted. The rest of his argu-
ment was devoted to showing that rea-
sonable motive was lacking, and that any
overdose of arsenic was given by mistake
in a 1dling the powders left by the doctors.
He laid great stress upon the stralghtfor-
ward testimony Of Mrs. Cowan.
Attorney General Powers argued for
the government He asserted that it was
admitted by the defence that the boy died
of arsenical poisoning, and he proceeded to
mathcmatically demonstrate that no such
amount of arsenic as was found in the
vital organs could have been contained IN
all the medicine left by the doctors for
him. One by one the attorney general
took up the theories which the defence
had advanced and combatted them
The two arguments occupied the whole
day up to 1, and Chief Justice Peters
charged the jury for one hour and 40
minutes, calling particular attention to
the amount of arsenic found in the child 5
organs.
The jury went out at 5. 49, and at 7.35
gave notice of an agreement. The chief
Justice and counsel were sent for, and the
jury came in and reported verdict OF
murder in the first degree
J. +. Robinson, counsel for the defend
ant, gave notice that he will file motion
for new trial Mrs Cowan received
the verdict calmly, without apparent
emotion.

cagO Tribune Charges.
Minneapolis, Aug. 1.-C. w. Arnold,
who wrote the first insurance for
Holmes and Pietzel, is indignant be-
cause the Chicago Tribune represent
ed him to he in hiding in Minneapolis.
Mr.. Arnold says he has been doing
business openly in Minneapolis since
moving here from Chicago, and there
has been at no time any secret about
his whereabouts. Interviews were
published in Minneapolis papers when
Holmes was first arrested. He is ell
tirely willing to give the authorities
any information he may have about
Holmes, but does not think his evi.
dence of any value, as he has had no
dealings with the man since 1892. He
believes he would be better witness
for Holmes than for the state If the
Chicago papers have nothing better in
reserve than they have been printing.
The Chicago reporters and detectives
lie brands as stupid and idiotic. As
for Holmes, Arnold believes he should
hang on general principles.
