night. and after consultation With the
commissioners it was decided to at
tempt to capture Morris at early dawn
Accordingly Deputy Martin, Com
missioners Carleton and Oakes and
| Capt. Pollard of FoXcroft, went to his

rounding it. Mr.. Martin tried the
door and found it securely barred.

parley the aoor was smashed.
Morris, who was sitting on a chair
near the door, as quick as lightning,
raised the chair with both hands and
an ugly look came into his eyes. but
re was instantly -lsarmed. RAISING
into the bedroom. he catlike o his
i rifle from the bed, lacked n cartridge
into the barrel. but Mr.. Martin, in
less time than it takes to tell it. had
it in his strong grasp, likewise Morris.
He then completely gave up and
asked the privilege of throwing his
rife into the lake, which was granted.
He threw it into the lake as far as he
could hurl it, but later the commits
sioners secured it and have it now in
their possession, it being the same
rifle he shot Collins with.
He was very ragged and dirty. He
was taken to the Kineo House and
later to Houlton, where an indictment
was found against him at the las,
term of court there.
Great credit is due to Deputy Mar
tin, who acted throughout with per
feet GOODNESS, great tact and was per
ftctly fearless. 1t was a hazardous
undertaking at best. but the manner
of it's execution excites the admiration
Of everyone. The people about here
are greatly rejoiced that Morris is a
last captured, and everyone breathes
easier as it is Enthusiastically true tha,
he has been the terror of this section
for a long time.
On searching him after his arrest a
fully loaded s~even-shooter was found
on his person.

CONGRESSIONAL FORECAST.
II Is All Conjecture. But Both Houses Hope to
to Adjourn. This Week.

Washington, June,7.-Unless all signs
fail Congress will adjourn. this week.
and those in touch with the business of
both Houses appear to agree that the
result my be secured by Wednesday.
Still the conditions are such that a
hitch might occur any moment. which
would protract the session for another
keek. This, however. while a possible
contingency, is not expected.
The business of the Senate depends
entirely upon the Roadway made with
the conference reports. Several appro-
priations bills are still to be disposed
of: The Indian bill upon which the
House refused to act favorably on the
conference agreed to in the Senate: the
post office bill, the report on which was
agreed to in the House. Saturday. will
be accepted by the Senate, Monday:
the naval bill, which will doubtless be
disposed of speedily, tomorrow, as the
conferees have already formulated a
compromise which they believe will be
acceptable to both Houses; The sundry
civil bill. pom which the House and
Senate seem to be dead-locked over
the appropriations for public buildings
inserted by the Senate: the district bill,
numerous items of which are still in
dispute. 1t is confidently expected that
all of these will be out of the way with
in the next As hours.
The new deficiency bill, which passed
the House, Saturday. will be rushed
through the Senate. tomorrow, with
all possible speed, it being the inten-
ton of the committee to move to lay
on the table any amendment that may
be offered. so the bill will pass as it
comes from the House. This motion
to lay on the table is the only method
the Senate has under it's rules to cut
off debate and it will be appealed to
literally when this measure comes up.
The immigration bill is the unfinished
business and Mr.. Lodge will call it up.
tomorrow, for considerations an OPEN
ing presents itself. Mr.. Hill, who is
in charge of the contempt of court bill,
a piece of legislation growing out of
the Debs case, is anxious for it's con-
~sideration and may lock horns with
Mr.. Lodge, for the right of way. Mr..
Gear will seek to fix a day during the
next session when the Pacific Railroad
refunding acts shall be taken up. In
this he may succeed. as both the trends
and opponents believe this subject
should be settled one way or the other.
All these and other matters that may
come before the Senate will tend to
make the next few days exceedingly
busy ones, and if Mr.. Allison, chair

Berlin. June THE concert Of pow
| ers relative to the situation in Crete
is of much the same character as was
now the exploded entente of the pow
| ers in regard to Armenia inc all sem.
! blance of unity of purpose is certain
to disappear upon h slightest APP
| proach to a collision of interests.
The Vienna Freie Presse. taking the
text of Emperor Francis Joseph's re.
| cent speech to the AustrO-Hungarian
delegations. argued that the Emper-
or's declarations gave proof that the
Dreibund powers were agreed upon
a common policy toward Turkey; that
| the interests of. Austria were, also the
interests of Germany n that the
| Dreibund was destined to intervene in
| Turkey almost Immediately.
These arguments are boldly and un-
equivocally attacked by the Berlin
representative of the Cologne Gazette
in a communication, wherein the writer
pointedly declares that Germany will
take no direct part in events in the
East, and merely desires that order
shall be maintained and the status
quo continued.
The policy of Germany Upon this
| question, the writer adds. is Identical
with that of the other powers, and
above all hat of Russia. The Gazette
in its article. which accompanies this
communication, gives no hint as to
the drift of the Cars policy to which
Germany is alleged t be attached.
The Vossiche Zeitung in an article
on the same subject asserts that
Russia is exerting a pri ,tical pro-
tectorate Over the Turkish empire and
will not under any circumstances al
low any power to interfere. MOI will
she accede to anything tending toward
a separation or ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the
Sultan's dominions. The Vossischa
says:
will Russia so influence the nego.
tiation of the powers as to cause Q
delay which will enable the Turkish
troops in the island Of Crete, which
has now increase to $4,000 men, to
overpower the Cretans and repeat Ar
menian massacres?"
The King of Greece and the
Grecian ministry seem to rely upon
warships. which the powers sent to
Canea and RetimO to intervene in the
event Of a massacre of the Cretans by
Turks. AT the same time the Orecian
fleet is being modified and the IRON
clads Hydra. Spetzia. Georgios. the
cruiser Admiral Miaulis and 15torped0

the Greek people shall compel the gov.
eminent to act.
The Cretan delegates now at Athens
have presented an appeal to the
Greek government for a union of Crete
with Greece, drawn up by the ASSEM-
bly, of Cretan deputies at Vamos, May
81.

kurds have massacred several French.

PUBLIC BUILDINGS.
Seventy-six Bills, Asking S14,-
$4,000 Before Congress.
Owing to State Of Tres sufy, Speaker
Reed and Congressman Miliken
Are Agreed that II Is Best Not 10 Urge Them.
at this Session.

Washington, June 7.-tSpeciaD.-The
present session of Congress is drawing
to a close. Some members already
have tickets for sleeping cars and are
ready on afew hours notice to leave the
city. There seems to be a general de-
sire on all sides, and from all parties
TO adjourn at the earliest possible day.
Some members looked for a final ad-
journment on Saturday. June 6, but
now expect to remRin until the 9th or
10th. Much depends upon tHi1bonfer-
ence committees being able1o agree
upon certain items in the appropriation
bills in which the Senate and House
disagree.
The work of the Senate and House
committees for the present session has
practically closed SC far as new legis-
lation is concerned. but some of the
important committees are pressed with
an accumulation of measures which
are urged for passage during thte last
few days of "A session.
The committee on public buildings
and grounds. of which Mr. Miliiken is
chairman. has had a large amount OF
business before 1t for consideration at
tillS StsStpil. Vic HulldItn anu eighty
bills have been referred to the com
mittee.1 41 OF which We're for new build
ings. The amount of money asked for
by these bills aggregate SIS, 600. 900. OF
these bills &c have received favorable
action by the committee. and The
amount Of appropriation required for
the IS bills amounts to s14.32s. 600.
While the committee has carefully
investigated the claims of the localities
asking for these buildings and agreed
to recommend them f~avorably to the
House. NJ reports have been placed
upon the House calendar, for the rea-
son h a owing to the present condition
of the United States treasury, the
running expenses Of the government
exceeding its income, il was not con-
sidered to be a good policy to increase
appropriations for new enterprises.
Speaker Reed has laid down the bust
ness proposition that it is not good
fnanciering to make appropriations not
absolutely necessary in the present
condition of the treasury. This belief
has been shared in by Mr.. Milliken.a and
as a consequence appropriations for
public buildings at this session have
been held back.
A great pressure has been brought
to bear upon Chairman Milliken. to
report the bills and put them on their
passage but believing as he does that
a nation as well asan individuals should
live within its income, he has postponed
further action until the next session.
In this purpose he has been fully sus-
tanned by the other members Of the
committee.
While Mr.. Milliken was chairman in
the 51st Congress. out of the IFS bills
reported from the committee, So be-
came laws with appropriations aggre-
eating 49, 900. 900.
