Philip Marqua1d.
EXECUTIVE CHAMBER.

= =,
The State is expanding annually
more than $3o,o0o for the preservation
ana protection of its fish and game
Inc Legislature. by judicious and ap-
propriate laws, has endeavored to pro
| teet these great interests, and such is
| the settled policy Of the State.
Unless the laws can be enforced
they may as We'll be repealed. and the
annual appropriation and expenditure
of this large sum of money abandoned.
There can be no reasonable excuse
offered for the Willful and vicious yio-
iatton of the statutes of our State re-
latng TO this subject; and the wanton
and Illegal slaughter of our game will
not he tolerated without a reasonable
attempt to bring the offenders to
Justice.
Application was duly made to me-
by the county attorney of Penobscot
county. for the within requsition upon
his Excellency. the Governor of the
commonwealth of Massachusetts. for
the return TO this State. for trial, of
Philip Marquand of Boston, who stood
charged before our courts with a vio-
lation of the game laws.
The application was in due form, ac-
companied by the necessary affidavits
of witnesses. and the required certi-
ficate Of the county attorney that the
application for Marquand's extradition
was made in good faith. with the sole
intent to prosecute him for the crime
alleged, and for no other purpose: that
he believed the ends of justice required
that he be brought to this State for
trial. and that Philip Marquand had
He'd from the Jurisdiction of this State
to avoid prosecution.
The requisition was accordingly is
sued by me. and honored by the Gov
ernor of Massachusetts. After it was
issued. and before the service of the
warrant of arrest on Marquand. l
learned that he had retained counsel
in this State. and was ready to volun-
tarily appear before our courts and
answer to the charge. Upon receiving
this information, temporary stay of
proceedings was directed, and the SER
vice of the warrant of arrest in Massa-
chusetts was temporarily suspended.
as the sole purpose of the requisition
was to compel Marquands presence in
this State, and his submission to the
jurisdiction of the courts within the
State where he committed the offense.
The within named Philip Marquand
has personally appeared and submitted
to the jurisdiction of our courts;
therefore, no further proceedings I'M
der this requisition are required. and
the same is hereby irrevocably sus-
pended.
In behalf of the State. / am pleased

tesies extended in the proceedings.

SEVERE PUNISHMENT
TO Be keted Out to 8omb. throwing Anarchists
at Barcelona.

Barcelona, Nov. 24.-The attorney
general, who is personally conducting
the prosecution of prisoners under ar
rest for connection with the throwing
of a bomb in a crowded street while g.
religious procession was passing, June
7. has announced that he will ask the
court that % prisoners be sentenced to
DEATH and 56 condemned to penal SER
vitude for life. Great precautions will
be taken against disorder when the
sentences are published. the court
will sit in the vault of the fortress of
Mont Juich and only military officers
will be admitted to it's proceedings.
The crime for which the prisoners are
to answer to the military court was one
of the most fiendish of many similar
outrages committed by Anarchists
within the last few years. The feast
Corpus Christi was being observed and
thousands of people lined the streets to
witness the procession on it's way to
the ancient church of Santa Maria del
Mar.
Just as the procession was entering
the church bomb was exploded in the
crowd. killing a dozen persons out
right and wOunding about so others,
some of whom died from their injuries.

WORLD SHOULD REJOICE
Says Lord PIafair that Sound Money
Won In Recent Election.
Thinks II will Be Long Time Before the TariM
Is Changed.

London. Nov. 24.-At the Golden Club
meeting. today. Lord Playfair said: THE
issues a stake in the recent American
Presidential election involved questions
of constitutional government and the
question of our faith in democracy If
Bryan had been elected that faith would
have been shattered and the commercial
panic which would have ensued would
have been enormous. Far more serious
than the commercial panic would have
been our loss of faith in the democracy
of the world.
Speaking of his personal observations
in the United States during the Presiden-
tial campaign. Lord Playfair said he felt
required to say that the Siverites were
not dishonest but mistaken. Free trade
was not an issue in the contest. with the
exception that 1t was mentioned in one
of Mckinley's speeches. In view of the
fact that the pivot of the election was
sound money, the world ought to feel
glad of the results
1t would be a long time. he predicted,
before the ardent protectiQnists of the
United States would seek to. change the
existing tariff. The sound politicians Of
the United States had many questions of
their own to solve, and he had no doubt
they would take advantage CT the oppor-
tunity to deal with the question of cur
rency: but they were not likely to at
tempt to bring about a revival of high
protection.

HAVANA STILL DARK.
No One Knows Why General WeyIer Has Re,
turned.

Havana. Nov. 24-The report cir
culated by the New York World to the
effect that the men captured on the
American filibustering schooner Com
retitor had been retired by a court
martial, despite protest filed by
Consul-General Lee prior to his de-
parture from Havana, is absolutely
without a word of truth. Only the
preliminary examinations of the pris-
oners on their second trial, as ordered
by the supreme military and naval tri-
bunal in Madrid, have as yet occurred.
1t is not known when the trials will
take place.
Every effort has been made to learn
the true reasons for the return, last
night. to Havana, of Captain General
Weyler from the province of Pinar del
Rio. but nothing definite has trans
PRED. All that is known is that he
came here on the gunboat Legazpi
from Mariel, accompanied by only one
adjutant. The rest of his staff came
by rail from Atemiza
General Weyler made no official dec
laration concerning the condition of
affairs in the province of Pinar del
Rio. In an interview just before he
left Artemisa to board the Legazpi at
Mariel he said that he was satisfied
with his campaign. He had crossed to
the south and expected to meet Maceo
and give him combat. He had met
only small bands of rebels. who dis
appeared when the Spanish troops
came near them.
When questioned concerning the
Whereabouts of Maceo, Gen. Weyler
said: Il do not know where he is
1t is certain l did not meet him in
either the hills or dales of Pinar del
Rio. Despite their bravados the
rebels never fight. but always flee upon
the approach of our troops
General Weyler added that the sup
plies of cattle obtained by the insur-
gents We're disappearing, the troops
capturing and destroying all they saw.
The military combinations planned by
him resulted as he expected. All these
combinations We're not finished, but
there would be much less to do at the
end of the year.
The press comments on the return
of the captain-gene are very
guarded, as is natural under the strict
censorship exercised. 1t is rumored
that he will soon return to the field.
One report has it that the chief reason
for his return to Havana We're press
ing government business which de-
manded his personal attention. Moth
ing really definite is known. and
events in the near future are anxiously
awaited.
Some dissatisfaction is quietly ex-
pressed even by the Loyalists that
Gen. Weyler, after his long prepara-
lions to inflict a crushing blow on
Maceo. should now come back to the
capital without even catching sight of
the main body of the rebels. The
rebels sympathzers are jubilant. be-
lieving that Gen. Weyler's return sig
nalizes the abandonment of his per-
sonal leadership of the campaign.

URGENT BUSINESS
Called General WeyIer from the Front
Back 10 Havana.
He Claims to Have Accomplished Much and
Will Soon Return.

Madrid. Nov. PA dispatch to the I'M
parcial from Havana says that in an in
terview Gen. Weyler stated that he had
returned from the province of Pinar del
Rio owing to the necessity of settling the
question of the new issue of notes by the
Spanish Bank and other urgent matters
Alter these were settled he would be
ready to return to the field He added
that ne did not believe that Maceo had
more than 5000 men and that these were
scattered in remote positions.
me object OF the recent Spanish opera
IONS mad been the occupation Of the hills
and passes and the cutting off of the
supplies of the insurgents. The few in
surgents in the provinces of Las Villas
and Havana were easily kept in check.
There We're more rebels in Camaguey
than in Las Villas and Havana. but the
Spanfards had little to lose there.
Moreover. the object of the Insurgents
in gathering there might be to distract
the attention from Maceo in Pinar del
Rio AT any rate he would crush the
dealing with the insurgents elsewhere
