SENATOR HALe'S VIEWS.

Washington, February Ex-senator Hale
at noon gave the Associated Press his I'm
pressions concerning the battle Of Manila

II am not surprised at the occurrence.
II The treaty had been made, as 1t ought
to have been made, putting the Philip
pines on the same basis as Cuba, no
trouble would have arisen. or II the man

amendment on this line there would have
been no trouble of this kind. Or, still
further, II they had agreed TO the passage
OF a joint resolution declaring that Con.
gress did not expect permanent occupa.

POLO NOTES.

The next game in this city will be on
Wednesday evening
There are now but four clubs In the
Maine league. for Lewiston sent for the
undertak after the game on Saturday
night when the gross receipts were but
$50.
Manager Mckenzie claims that he has
dropped $500 in trying to furnish amuse-
ment for the people OF Lewiston, and ss
he Ia not millionaire, he decided to quit
Saturday night.
The loss of Lewiston will strengthen
rather than weaken the Maine league.
for Lewiston has teen the easiest kind of
a proposition for the other teams ever
since the season opened. The team dropped
game after game with such regularity
that the attendance at the home games
fell OF to q mere handful, and on the
road Lewiston was the weakest kind of
an attraction.
Tarrant and Smith have Joined the
Bangor club and they will strengthe en-
1t immensely.
The four clubs remaining In the league
are now fully as strong as any In the
business, and they are very evenly
matched.
With Lewiston out, the schedule had to
be rearranged. and the next game In
this city will lie on Wednesday evening
when the "ali-star" Bath aggregation
will be here This game promises 10 be
one of the most exciting ever played in
Portland, and 1t ought to attract big

LIFE CRUSHED OUT.
Horrible Death Of Grasd Yrusk Car
Coupler.

was st work In Freight Yard ana
stepped In Front OF Another Train
Mans Name Was ,. w. Toohe
And He Lived Somewhere In Michi-
gan.
A horrible accident occurred last night
about eleven o'clock at the Grand Trunk
freight yard near the Portland Company's
work., In which John W. Tooke whose
home Is supposed to be In Leroy, Mich.
was instantly killed.
Tooke, who was o man about thirty
years old. was car coupler In the Grand
Trunk yard. He was engaged in coupling
cars on one truck, and having put the
coupling pin In place stepped out from
bet een the cars and onto the main line
on which another freight train was COM
ing. According to the story told by the
train men Tooke stepped directly on one
car and was instantly ground iifeless BY
the cruel wheels
The engineer In charge Of this train
which ran over Tooke was Thomas o'Neil
and the fireman was George L. Lurvey.
They say that Tooke stepped out onto the
main line from between the other fears
and was back to the car which struck
him. The mans right arm was broken,
but the upper part of his body WAS not
mutiiated in any way. His body below
the hips was ground to pulp and the man
was evidently killed instantly. The train
men heard the mans cry as he fell he
meath the wheels and heard no others fol-
lowing 1t. They stopped the train and
going out upon the track found Iooke's
body. mangled and bleeding, outside the
rails.
Rich's ambu lance was called and DR..
Merrill Was sent for, but was unable to
do anything beyond pronouncing the man
dead. At the Grand Trunk the officials
said that Tooke was q stranger here, but
had not been here more than month.
He came from Montreal so the railroad
men said but beyond this they knew
nothing about him. They believed that
he was not married. 1t was supposed
from some papers found In his pockets
that the mans home was In Leroy, Mich.
The following WIS one Of the letters in
his pocket:
