Finally the constitutions of the state
and of the United States are invoked
TO prevent the citys proposed action.
The petitioners say that the property
fronting their wharf lots belongs to
them, and the city is now endeavoring
to coniscate it for the use of the pub
lie, without even the offer of compen-
sation, and without due process of
law. The improvements they have
made, the buildings they have erected
above the level of Bay street, have

Their prayers are for an injunction
restraining the city, the special COM
mittee of Council and all other persons
acting under their orders from carry
ing the proposed plan of improvement
into effect; prohibiting the interference
by the city with their right to use and
enjoy a free right of passage across
the property in dispute; prohibiting the
dedication of the property, they claim
belongs to them as public park.
A temporary restraining order was
granted by Judge Barrow and the
hearing was set for this afternoon at
) o'clock. The petitioners are repre-
scented by G. T. and J. F. Cam, and
Samuel Is. Adams, city attorney, will
support the opposite contentious.

The Evangelistic Meetings.

Another glorious service!" This was
the exclamation that many were heard
to make, last evening, on their way
from the evangelstic service held in
the First Baptist church. The earnest
spirit of the large congregation that
completely filled the house was mani
fest all through the service and no
sooner was the meeting handed over
to the people than good response
came from the pews. 1t is becoming
more and more evident that the inter
est of this religious movement is broad
and by no means confined to the local
pastors who take charge of the meet
ings. The spiritual life of all the
churches has felt the influence of these
services and the present interest rep
resents the social life Of our com
munity. Many have resolved the past
weeks to live the Christian life and are
grateful for the noble pressure brought
to bear in these union services. The
spiritual harmony unconsciously felt in
every meeting makes one think of the
poetry of ancient Israel:
Behold. how good thing it is,
And now becoming well,
Together such as brethren are
In unity to dwell
Meeting, tonight, as usual at 80, and
all are invited to attend.

During the month of February. u
bankruptcy cases were brought before
+. j. G.. Little, referee for this county
as against II during January. These
represented a total of $6495. SO on the
debit side and $1l4S. 40 on the credit side
or a net loss to creditors of $5347.19. The
net loss last month was 2,722.9S. The
excess of loss for the month of January
may perhaps be attributed to the fact
that the first of the year is the usual
time for settlement of standing ac-
counts. In 10 out of the IL cases the
liabilities were less than $1,000, and in
seven less than $500. The assets ranged
from nothing to $10SS.40. In only two
cases, however, were they over 5000.
The liabilities in the case of Harry Asa
Nelson of Sidney, We're the largest, but
the net loss to creditors was more in
the case Of Chester Witham of Water
vile. The smallest was that of Andrew
+. Libby of Waterville, who was in debt
but $2l2.01 and whose assets were $3.50.
Watervile had six. the largest number
of failures of any place in the county,

part-first fastened upon George
Rrainerd's life while he was at woxk
in South America in 1887.
Eight medical experts examined
Rrainerd. five at the request of the
State and three at the request of the
defense. All agreed in the opinion that
Brainerd was insane, and that his
homicidal acts were the consistent
product of his insanity. The verdict
of the jury was murder in the first de-
gree
THE voice of the people, formulating
opinions concerning these five cases, is
perhaps interesting as study in hui
man nature, although tribe too
vacillating to be accepted as the voice
of God. The day following the Scrib-
ner homicide it is estimated that more
than 1000 people from the little city of
Augusta went out over the Brook road
toward Sidney, to visit the scene of
the tragedy. Almost everybody's first
exclamation after hearing of the homi-
cidal acts of Scribner, Hurd and
Erainerd. was substantially this:

evidence of defective inhibition and, to
a certain degree, sign of mental
weakness; on the contrary, it aroused
prejudice: and it is perhaps not nm
natural that many good people should
allow their brain cells to receive no
further commotion from such reports
than may be caused by the shock TO
their moral sense.
1.-THE unnatural nature of the acts Of
Scribner and Hurd-the killing of their
nearest relatives-also gave an inward
curve to the judgment of many people.
A crime so hideous and inhuman, they
reasoned. can meet no punishment

Dr. Thayer concludes by stating that
a study of present condition in Maine
appears to justify the following deduc-
tons:
THAT insanity has never been cloak |
for homicide
THAT within the last Is years there
have been at least five cases of homi- |
eide, and probably others. i'm which the
doer of the act has been insane before |
and after he did it, and in which there
is at least a high degree of probability |
that the act itself was the product of |
his insanity.
That these men have all been con-
victed of murder.
THAT the convictions are to be at |
tributed in part to the explicit, lucid, |
archaic and rigorous rulings of the |
Maine courts.
THAT the practical working in Maine |
of the only proper legal criterion is to
concede responsibility only to idiots
and to maniacs.
THAT realization of these facts on |
the part of the courts, the prosecuting |
officers and the public together with in
creasingly accurate knowledge of the |
nature of mental disease must inevita- |
bly, lead to verdicts which are at the |
same time more just, more scientific, |
and more humane"

has been put on the Philippine cruelty
agitation, by the statement made by
Secretary Root yesterday afternoon in
an official communication to the Pre-.
sident In this communication Secre.
|tary Root defends the position. taken
by General Jacob H Smith, and dec
lares that he himself is responsible for
the cruelties practiced in the island of
Samar by the army authorities.
Secretary Root says that the meas
|ures taken were necessary ones for the
subjugation of the island inhabitants,
and that the steps were not the result
|of any campaign of revenge. He
states that the unusual circumstances
which existed in Samar called for the
same rules that were observed during
the Civil War, and that General Order
No. 100 is still in force and effect; In
his communication the Secretary def
ends the position taken by General
Funston and requests that the President
decline to accept the resignation of
that officer. The statement made by
Secretary Root has created a sensation

l&n1Qly Refuses !!
TO Abolish Bounty
Will Not Ratify The Brussels Con-
ference Agreement.
Convention a Failure.
Special Cablegram to Boletin Mercantil

New York, May Sth.-Advices receiv-
ed here from Brussels state that the
German governm> mt has refused to
rstify the agreement of the Brussels
sugar conference to abolish all bounties
on beet sugar. The matter was laid
before the government yesterday and
as there was universal opposition to it,
it was not even put before the Rechtag.
AS a result of Germany's action it
seems certain that the work of the
conference will fail, as the understand
ing was that no country should be
bound by the agreement Unless all the
parties to it ratified the action of the
delegates.
