IMPORTANT DECISIONS.
Two Admiralty Cases Disposed OF by
Judge Webb-schooner Julia s. Bailey
Against Tug Boat Phillip Eaton.

In the two admiralty cases, Calvin W.
Sprague ct ais owners of schooner Julia
S. Bailey against the steam tug Phillips
Eaton and V. B. Gordon, her master;
and Sullivan Falls Towboat company
against the schooner Julia S. Bailey.
Judge Webb announced his conclusions,
in the District court Monday. The case
of the owners of the Bailey against the
tug grew out of an injury while the
schooner was in tow in July, '95. At that
time the Bailey had loaded paving at
Sullivan and was bound to Philadelphia.
While towing out through Sullivan Falls
she grounded; and during flood tide was
very seriously injured by being swept over
the rocks. Captain Sprague, master of
the Bailey filed libel against the tug
boat and her master for the injuries occa-
stoned by the stranding. The owners of
the tow boat fled libel against the
schooner to recover salvage for service
rendered the schooner after she had been
injured.
Judge Webb found the tug in fault for
the INJURY to the schooner and ordered
the first libel to be referred to commits
sioner to assess the damages. The other
libel was ordered dismissed.
Benjamin Thompson, ESQ.,. appeared
for the Julia S. Bailey, and George E.
Bird, Esq, for the towboat and her
master and owners.

The Concert by the Blind.


The rain did not keep many people
away from City hall last night where the
students of the institution for the blind
at Hartford, Connecticut were giving a
concert. The funds obtained from this
affair were to be given to that most de-
serving of institutions and perhaps that
was the reason why SO many people
turned out in the rain to go to City hall.
But the concert was a very enjoyable one
for all that it was given wholly by unfor-
tunate young men and women who have
been entirely deprived of their eye sight.
There was band composed often young
men which rendered delightful music
with something like real expression in it.
Then some of the young men and women
sang solos, others played on the piano or
other instruments, q few of them gave ex-
hibitions of reading, and there were reci-
tations and host of other entertaining
features, 1t was in fact most delightful
evening for all who attended and the
audience was a most enthusiastic one, ap-
plauding all of the efforts Of the blind
nerformers without stint.

That the new Y. M. G. A. building
now in process of construction will be an
ornament to our city is beyond question.
That it will be means of furnishing to
our young men that which every young
man SO earnestly covets, a place for
physical exercise and development, and
that it will furnish all this amid sur
roundings and companionship which will
tend to strengthen his mental and moral
nature as we'll, is likewise beyond
question. The ladies having in charge the
Y. NJ. G. A. building sale, SO soon to be
held in City hall approach the people of
Portland with confidence in asking them
to attend as far as possible this fair. every
cent of the proceeds of which will go to-
wards the new building. They feel sure
that all will desire to have share in this
work, which has for its object the making
of better sons, better clerks and better
men.

DEF ORG uODGE BONNE1,
This morning the court took up the case
of State VS.. John J. King for larceny
from the person. The state claims that

vacant lot on Cotton street, took from

toxicated asked him to take his money
and keep it for him, that he did SO and
went to dinner, and was on his way back
to see Ring, whom he had left lying back
of the fence, and give his money back,
when he was arrested. The jury dis.

Sporting Duchess.

1.-THE Sporting Duchess which comes
to the Jefferson Thursday, Friday and
Saturday and Saturday matinee is O.
drama of an English race track filled with
exciting scenes which have never failed to
arouse an audience to enthusiasm wher,
ever the piece has been given. For in
stance, early in the play there is mill
tary ball, represented in fashionable
country house. Thousands of dollars
costumes which were to be worn in this
one scene. To present Derby race upon
the stage in an adequate manner is ire
mendous task but Frank L. Perley has
staged the play in such way as to form
a great spectacle. The stage is crowded
with spectators of all sorts. Twenty
horses are engaged in the great struggle
and the jockeys ride for fame with all the
enthusiasm of their originals 1t will be
remembered that The Sporting Duchess
ran for over 300 nights at the Academy of
Music in New York; it also played for six
weeks at the Hollis Street Theatre in Bos-
ton, and for eight weeks at the Walnut
Street Theatre, Philadelphia, besides hav-
ing enjoyed a, run of over year in Lon
don.
Portland Theatre.
The bill at the Portland theatre last
night presented as it's attraction the farce
comedy in three acts entitled "A Breezy
Time.'
This play in new and snappy form,
has just enough plot to serve as vehicle
for catchy musical novelties and clever
speciality performances in which pretty
girls appear to good advantage.
Its lines are original and at times fun
follows fun at Star Pointer clip; in
short it is an olio whose organizers
sought novel and amusing features.
Miss Kathryn Webster was the soubrette
and heroine as we'll. Her singing was
good and her dancing fascinating and
graceful. Mr. Fitz, fat and jolly" had
the comedy part; his facial expressions
are worthy of mention; his acting accep-
table.
A notable feature of the show were the
musical selections rendered on various
instruments by Mr.. Fitz and Miss Web
eter. Incidental to the central attractions
were an artist in difficulty, musical
tramp with song and dance, and Mrs.
Dooley, "whose bark is worse than her
bite
The speciality offerings were satisfac-
tory, especially the Lawn Tennis Quar-
tette," the one-legged man, the frog con.
tortionist and character sketches seemed
to catch the audience.
There were three distinct breezes, in
creasing in intensity of fun up to the
climax in the last act when the actors
left the audience in good humor by a
grand cake walk in which the entire COM
pany were brought to the foot lights.

BOTH ARE CORRECT.

Our neighbor, the Dispatch, last
week undertakes to be corrective of
what was said in the PRESS regard
ing the fixing of the compensation
to the Treasurer by the County
Commissioners, but, instead becomes
simply captious. The minutes on
the Commissioner book show that
Mr.. Bensley voted in the negative
on the proposition to make the
commissions 296 each way. This is
what the PRESS stated and it is the
naked fact.
subsequently the clerk copied the
resolution as it appears in the Dis
patch and Mr.. Bensley signed it.
This is also a fact. Why Mr.. Ben
sley wishes to go on record as being
both against and in favor of 29S each
way, concerns only himself, and is
for him to explain if he so desires.
We only say this to show that when
our ''next door cotemporary" says
"Bensley voted with his colleagues
for 29S, it does not state the fact,
and to be candid should admit it.
