Two Larceny Cases in Court.

In the municipal court yesterday morn
ing, John Sears, charged with the lar
ceny of a small sum of money and break
ing and entering into the shop of Thorn
as Coleman, 3S4 Fore street, was bound
over to the September term of the Su-
perior court. Bail, which was fixed at
$780, was not furnished. Sears is alleged
to have committed the crime on the eve
ming of June II, just after he had served
a sentence in Jail for drunkenness. When
he was arrested by Officers Smith and
White four bottles of beer were found in
a shed where he had gone to hide. This
is also thought to have been taken from
Coleman's.
Edward Owens, a 16-year-old boy,
pleaded not guilty to the larceny of a
package of fire crackers at 1s9 Congress
street. Judge Robinson desired more
time to investigate the case and SO con-
tinued it to today, bail being ordered
in the sum of 800 for Ovens appearance.
The sureties were not furnished and
the boy was committed.

An important Fest Case.

The Supreme Court has ordered reas-
signment of the famous so-called "double
liability case of the United States Ma
tional Bank of Atchison, Kansas. VS. Mrs.
Conner, WIFI of the Ex-Governor. The
court did not feel that the citations were
full enough, the more because since the
test case was argued by Judge Sy.
monds, for Mrs. Connor, and Hon. A. F.
Moulton for the Kansas bank, there have
been several decisions in other States in
line with che present case. The argu.
ments will probably be made at the law
term next week. While the amount in.
yolved in the proceedings now in court is
very small, as a test case it is of the
greatest possible Importance, involving as
at does large sums all ovel
the state. The "double liability comes
through laws enacted in several Western
states making stockholders of corporations
liable to creditors for the difference be-
tween the price paid for their stock and
its par value. and also to assessments to
the full amount of the face value of the
stock. 1t is believed that fully 1900 cases
are involved in the single test case now
before the Supreme Court, and now to be

TWO FREIGHTS COLLIDE.
And Block Up the Road at West Fal
mouth.

The Accident Was on the Maine Central
No One Was Hurt-Epworth Delegates
Slightly Delayed.
! Yesterday morning at about Z O'Clock
two freight trains were going in the same
direction on the Maine Central near
West Falmouth. At that point there is a
grade and it was going down this part of
| the track that an accident occurred which
| blocked the road the whole forenoon. The
forward train was delayed by the cylinder
| of the locomotive blowing out. When it
was found necessary to stop the forward
train f1agman was sent back to warn
the train which was following, but before
he had time to get very far up the track
the second train appeared rushing down
the heavy grade in dense fog.
The fagman swung his flag and shouted
but the second train could not be stopped,
although the engine was reversed and all
breaks were applied. When the engineer
and fireman saw that a collision was in
evitable they both jumped. The engineer
went down a twenty foot embankment,
but struck on some soft earth and escaped
uninjured. The fireman also struck light
ly and received no injury. The men in
and around the caboose of the head train
got out of the way safe distance and no
one was hurt
The engine of the second train crashed
into the caboose at fair rate of speed,
throwing the caboose and two loaded coal
cars from the track. The locomotive was
considerably damaged and will have to GO
to the repair shops for thorough over
hauling.
AS soon as the accident was reported in
Portland wrecking train was sent out
and large crew worked all the forenoon
clearing the track, which was completely
blocked to travel by the wreck. Passen-
gers were transferred around the wreck
with very little delay including delegates
to the Epworth League convention and
early in the afternoon trains were running
as usual

DR.. WILLIAM LAWRENCE DANA.
Action of the Directors of the Maine Cen
eraI Hospital.

On the morning of May the twenty
seventh, during the period of his special
assignment to active duty as surgeon of
the hospital, William Lawrence Dana
died suddenly at his residence in Port
land
A thrill of surprise and sorrow, heavy
sense of general public loss, at once per-
vaded the community. 1t was painful to
think what fair prospect of life was so
quickly obscured, what brilliant hopes
persisted with him.
An ancestry which gave him, as if by
right of inheritance, the traditions of a
worthy past, beautiful boyhood, a noble
youth, the enthusiasm of early study
ripening into the habit of severe pre-
fessional labor, true ideal of private and
professional life not only cherished but
realized in his own career, the first
heights of his profession won, the promise
of a great future of usefulness and honor
before him, his mind and heart open to
the best influences and pursuing the
| highest aims, in the lead and in advance,
he fell at his post. This was his life; this
was his death. The noble curve rounded
to fullness and perfection of outline
during it's brief course in this world /,
passed onward beyond our sight.
The Maine General hospital, sharing
deeply in the common sorrow, impressed
by sense of it's own peculiar loss, setting
his name among its most sacred memories,
directs that this minute in memory of
him be entered on record, and requests
the Secretary to send copy of the record
under his own hand to the distinguished
father of DR.. Dana, that he may know
that the institution, upon which for near
~ a quarter of century he has freely
lavished the resources of his learning and
skill, would draw near to him, if it could
in sensitive sympathy, under the shadow
| of his heavy sorrow and loss.
