ANAPPEAL

Y Portland. Me. April 11.-Thc state
fBuard Of T.aGc issued the following
appeal. this morning:
/; Is we'll known that the Legislature.
in the hastily closing hours Of its ses-
sion, omitted To pass the small appro-
piiation asked as the proportion ex-
pcct"d for Mainc's share in the right;
and privileges in the New ENGLAND
building 1T Buffalo. already prepared
and assigned for our use, and in which
our "t1tc i expected to share equally
i'll all its advantages.
The confidence and strong feelings on
the part of 50 many of our citizens that
our State hitherto never rcmiss or de
lauitinE il duty to herself and always
in line with other New England states.
should not fail TO do her part promptly
III this matter. which so kecnly touch
eS the pride of so many natives of
Maine. residents of Buffalo, and anx-
ious that their native State should b"
well represented on this very important
and rare opportunity to display her
splendid and varied resources.
All this and more was so evident at
the recent meeting of the State Board
of Trade in Portland, that there WAS a
unanimous and enthusiastic EXPIRE ssion
accelerated by the loyal generous do
nation by Governor Hill of $500 to-
wards raising an amount sufficient to
pay Names share in the New England
building. if the State Board would I'M
dcrtake to raise the balance needed. to
which the State Board at once sub
Scribed $500 more from its funds. and
voted to appeal to the local boards of
the State to assist in promptly making
up the balance.
The executive council now asks your
hearty cooperation towards raising
the amount of about $4,000. which can
easily be done if each board contribute
no more than 81 per member. but sub
scriptions should not only be asked
from members. but from all other citi-
zens able to contribute, since all are
interested as much as members of
Boards of Trades and should have the
opportunity to contribute. and good
live committees will see that they do.
and a little jealous effort will quickly
and easily realize the desired result
Will your board promtly cooperate?
Please reply at once to this request
of the executive council, and make
checks payable to order of
NJ. n. RICE.
Secretary, at Portland.

POOL ROOM RAIDS.
The Committee Of Fifteen Go
Through New York Resorts.
Conflict With Police Over the Value
Of Evidence Found.
Openly Charged that Police Notified Some Of
ths Raids.

New York, April 1.-THE Committee
Of Fifteen raided seven alleged pool
rooms, this afternoon. The raids Were
made on warrants issued by Justice
Jerome and upon evidence obtained by
the staff OF detectives working for the
committee under the direction of .Supt
John McCullagh. The raids in each
case were personally conducted by in
dividual members of the committee as
sisted by their own detectives and po-
liccmen of the regular force from the
precinct in which the raid was made
In only one place did the raiders fail
to make any arrests and 4. .. Brews-
ter of the committee openly says the
inmates of the place received a tip
from the police that the place was
about to be raided.
A feature of the raidng was the eff
fort by at least two of the police Off
Gals to prove that the places raided
were not pool rooms but orderly and
well conducted clubs. Capt. Diamond
declared a place raided on East 14th
street was not a pool room and that no
evidence of one was found. Acting
Capt. Carson declared this was true of
club raided on West 23d street.
In the raid on the Everett Club which
occupied the main floor parlors in a
four-stOry dwelling on East 18th street.
there was more or less friction between
the agents of the Committee of Fifteen
and Capt. Diamond. Capt. Diamond
says he found 10 men in the place
quietly sitting around reading. There
was absolutely no evidence of pool
room there" he said.
Mr.. Frey. acting for the committee,
said that they had found not less than
40 men in the place. He said the men
fled in a panic. carrying away the rear
windows. sash and all. He said plenty
of evidence was found to show that
there was a pool room in the place.

NOT so SERIOUS.


Washington. April 11.-Ambassador
ChOate has not been heard from yc.
in reply to the inquiry of the state de-
partment relating to the action taken
by the British authorities upon the ex-
clusion of certain kinds of American
meat. But since the inquiry was made
the urgency Of the matter appears to
be somewhat relieved b. explanations
given in press cables and emanatihy
from the official authorities in London.
These show that the exclusion was in
no sense general but was confined t.
articles used by the British war office.
Under these circumstance the officials
here attach less Importance to tie
ma tier than il seemed to warrant when
first made known.
