ed the lower courts decision.
William Ashton'was killed while dig
ging shale for Contractor Lally for the
Cleveland Brick Co., and his adminstra-

flrmed the decision.

was not subject to levy in this instance,
QUESTION OF LEGALITY.
The Peoples Savings Bank Co., vs..
Minnie r. Loichot involved the question
as to the legality of the transfer of two
notes by Frances Piero to his daugh-
ter, Mrs. Loichot. The court, found

Friday night. The constable Of that

had granted permission for the fight
end wanted to know what to do in the

Sheriff Zaiser inquired and found that
Minerva had no regularly organized
athletic club or gymnasium, and that
the mayor had no right to grant such
permission under the law, which is very
explicit.
Mayor Pierman also called up the
sheriff and wanted permission to allow
the fight to go on, but was informed
that the sheriff had no authority.
When about to start for the scene,
the sheriff was notified by the mayor
that he had called the fight Off, and
Mr.. Zaiser did not 60.

and the crowd, who were trying to en-

that he could not control the situation,
but they soon cooled off and every
thing quieted down.

Mr.. Charles Krichbaum, Democratic
candidate for common pleas Judge,
made an able supplementary address
at the assembly room Friday night.
Mr.. Krichbaum did not speak as the
candidate for the judgeship, but as an
American citizen whose blood boils at
the infamies committed under the guise
of benevolent assimilation" His ref
erence to commercialism as a menace
to the peace and welfare of the coun-
try, was able and eloquent. Mr.. Krich-
baum believes in mems hearts more
than In their pocketbooks.

Hazleton, Oct 6-Strikers made raid
on the Latimer colliery this morning
and executed q clever coup. They
marched into town in two columns.
Sheriff Harvey was ready for them and
told them to be careful not to break
the law and to keep moving. They
cheered him and continued their march.
r>"Mother' Jones and a party Of 1,60O
kept the miners occupied In town while
the other army Of 1000 made detour
and persuaded the men not to go to
work. Across the valley was another
army engaged in the same work. All
together 1000 men and women were ell
gagged in the "enveloping" movement.
The result was that, for the first time
since the strike, all the Latimer mines
and breakers were entirely closed.
No violence occurred, save the club
bing Of some Italians. No one was
hurt.
STRUGGLE ENDS AT LATIMER.
Hazleton, Pa, Oct. 6.-Clavin Pardee

When Sheriff Harvey reached home
from Latimer this morning he found

The sheriff said, however, that the

he would not call for troops.
Pardee Is furious because his demands
for troops have been ignored.

Circuit court on Saturday morning
handed down the decisions on the vari-
GUS cases heard during the weeks sit
tings. The court room was filled with
attorneys and interested parties, and
two and one-half hours were consumed
in rendering the decisions. The fnd-
A ings Of the circuit court reflected credit
! upon the common pleas judges, for in
not a single instance was the lower
court reversed.
The case which excited the most in
terest was that Of the city Of Canton
VS., John Shock and others, which was
carried up on error to have the verdict
of the lower court set aside and the
Judgment for $500 against the city.s
Judge Voorhees, delivered the finding
Of the court. and reviewed the case ex-
haustively. He took occasion to compii-
ment the charge Of Judge Taylor in the
trial Of the case below, saying that 1t
was able, and carefully considered all
points.
Judge voorhees, said 1t was conceded
that the
SHOCKS HAD A RIGHT
to maintain a mill property, and the
city had a right to construct water
works, but that the city had no right
to invade the right Of the Shocks. An
act may be lawful in itself, but when
It Injuries another it becomes unlawful,
? and plaintiff had just cause Of action.
The real question is that II the use Of the
water defects so much of the water as
to injure others. the city has exceeded
its rights.
The city lost it's right to maintain
under the statute of limitation, by rea-
son Of the fact that 1t kept increasing
it's capacity and drawing more heavily
from the stream, thus increasing the
amount Of damage to the defendant in
error.
If the city wishes to invade the rights
lof others there is proper way-by ap-
propriation under the law, and that is
the only way. Every principle OF law
sustains these findings, and the find
ing of the lower court is affirmed.

more liberal offer will be submitted by

stated that several propositions have
already been presented to labor lead

their funds are not yet exhausted, and
when they are, United Mine Workers

SUPERVISING INSTRUCTIONS.

The instructions sent to the peace
commissioners at Paris, one of whom
was Judge William r. Day, of Canton,
are still suppressed by the Washington
authorities. Judge Day and the peace
commissioners would probably have no
objection to having them published
but they are carefully buried in Wash
ington and will not be given out. This
leads the Chicago Chronicle to remark:
These instructions constitute part Of
| the archives Of the United States and
all citizens are entitled to see them.
Candidate Mckinley quoted for cam
paign purposes portion Of these in
| structions and conceals the other por-
tions.
Only one construction is possible con-
| cerning suppression Of public docu-
ments. That construction is that COM
plete publication thereof would hurt
| somebody before the country.
Candidate Mckinley knows this.
He finds it more to his interests to sup
press than to publish. A man of fine
| |sensibilities or of due regard for the
rights of his fellow citizens would be
incapable Of conduct so reprehensible.
The selection of Mr.. Charles Krich-
baum as the Democratic nominee for
common pleas Judge, by the chairmen
CT the committees of Stark, Columbi-
ana and Carroll counties, is eminently
satisfactory to the Democrats of Stark
county. The chairmen of the various
committees acted with wisdom in choos-
ing so able an attorney and excellent a
gentleman as Mr.. Krichbaum. He is a
splendid lawyer. possessing to a re-
markable degree those qualifications
that have made the bench the dignified
yet safe refuge for those who have
rights to protect. Mr.. Krichbaum Is
the peer of any attorney at the Stark
county bar, a clean, honorable citizen.
He did not seek this nomination. It
came to him without the suggestion of
solicitation and as the unanimous ex-
preston of the accredited representa-
| tives Of the Democracy Of Stark, Co.
lumbiana and Carroll counties. Mr..
Krichbaum holds the exalted position
in too high reverence to make polit-
ical scramble for it. The district is
strongly Republican, but with such a
candidate it is not beyond the possi-
bilities that he will be elected. He will
have the unqualified support Of every
Democrat in the district and Of a great
many Republicans who believe that
character, fitness and the poise of men
tality Is the true test when judges are
TO be chosen.

L. p. d. Yost called at the News
Democrat office Saturday morning and
gave an account Of the treatment ac-
corded Croy and Walters in the races
at Akron. The News-Democrat told
the story of the fouling of Pop" by
Hendershot, but 1t turns out that Croy
was more seriously injured in that spill
than the papers reported. He pluckily
finished the race but tainted at its con-
clusion, and has not been able to drive
since.
Friday the gang attempted to keep
Miss Rose from winning. She was driven
by Jamison. and in the first heat was
run into, and lost the heat. Starting
from tenth place, she won the second
heat, then the third, but in the fourth
she was again fouled, compelling her
to drop back to last place. However,
she went on and won in spite Of the
gang.
Allie Walters was also fouled in his
race, but succeeded in landing third

formerly of Ellsworth, died recently.
Mrs. Williams left considerable property.
Her will was lied for probate last week.
Mrs. Seth T. Campbell, of Island Falls,
formerly of Ellsworth, is the residuary
legatee. Private and pubic bequests
aggregate nearly $50 900. Among pri-
vate bequests are 5000 each to her
grandnephews, Frank 4. and James P.
Whitmore, of Ellsworth. Among public
requests are S5 900 to the First Univer-
salist church, OF Portland, $1,000 to
Maine general hospital for founding a
free bed; 50 900 to the Eye aud Ear in
Urinary; g., 900 to the Portland Home for
Aged Women. and 1000 to the Port
land Invalid's Home.
Ellsworth friends OF Miss Mary l..
Burnham will be interested to know that
she is now employed as head nurse in an
English army hospital at Wei Hal Wei, at
salary of 800 month. Two letters
were received from her Monday, one dated
as late as Aug. 5. She writes that the
| work is not hard, but there is a great deal
of responsibility. 1t is only temporary
place, however, and she does not know
how long she will remain. 1t will be
some time before she can safely return to
the interior OF China, and she may have
an opportunity to visit home. Wei Hal
Wei is city on the mainland, with an
island as a sort of all annex. The English
government owns the island, and is
spending lots of money there. 1t has
been the lauding place Of all the English
forces in China.
The visit OF Hon. A. F. Gerald, OF Fair
field, to Ellsworth last week, started
| trolley talk. MIR. Gera d has been called
the trolley king of Maine. He has built
nine electric roads in the State, and is
still largely Interested in most of them
He is the promoter and owner OF Merry
| meeting park, and the road leading to il.
Mr.. Geratd was in this section LOOKING
over electric railroad prospects, and lnti-
mai es that he may have sonnet hing inter-
| e-ting to Ieii the people OF EIlswor' h
g'sn ced at TIE mills, then down the
Treni on road nearly to Shady Nook. In
he afternoon he drove to Bar Harhor.
Ellsworth people hope that somethin =
| tangible will grow out OF Mr.. Gerald
visit. A road from Els worth to the bay
and connecting with the steamboat to
RockIand, would be big improvement
over the present stage connection with
the boat at East Surry. Mr.. Gerald not
only knows how TO build electric rail-
roads. but what is more important, he
knows how to get people to ride on them.
If he builds road to Union River bay it
is a pretty safe guess to say that there
will be some sort OF pleasure resort at the

David Mosley, OF Marlboro, was in Els
worth this morning with two or three
big gashes in his head. He says Isaac
Vincent hit him with hoe.
According to Mosley's story OF the Incl
dent, yesterday Vincent started a fire
which got away from him and ran down
on Mosley's land and that made him mad.
He lowed that any man VINO would start
fire such weather rs this was a blankety-
blank fool and ought to be in State prison
or an insane asylum, or words to that
effect. Then Vincent hit him with the
hoe.
Mosely came to Ellsworth this morn
ing. First he called to see doctor, then
he called to see lawyer. Kinder looks
as if there'ii be law suit.
