submitted by the quarrymen to the
owners at meeting last Friday even

The proposition made by the owners
was practically the same as that agre

The messenger further said the

does not know the outcome of the con-

The Quincy Mass. Daily Ledger
makes the following amusing and
astonishing announcement in its issue
of yesterday. We republish the same
for the purpose Of showing how the
Quincy granite men regard their
brethren at Barre. OF course This
statement is untrue: Saturday the
Ledger published interviews with sew
eral of the quarry owners OF Quincy
in regard to the published settlement
between the quarrymen and quarry
owners Of Barre. Vt In all of these
interviews the gentlemen expressed
their doubt as to the correctness OF
the agreement published. To deter.
mine definitely special messenger
was dispatched to Barre to find out
the true facts in the case. The mess
enger left Quincy Saturday morning
and arrived back this noon.

There was another stabbing a1atr
last night in Barre's 'red light
district, Us result of which, James
McNulty received two bad wounds
and the alleged perpetrator has made
his escape.
About 10 O'Clock James McNulty
came into the police station and re-.
ported that he had been stabbed.
He was covered with blood at the
time. Drs. Reid and Deziel were
summoned and dressed two cuts,
one in the back Of bis head and one
In his left shoulder blade.
On account of his condition grand
Juror, H. w. Scott, could get but
little information out Of him. One OF
the inmates of Mrs. William Ewing's
house on River street, where McNulty
lives, Goldie Sun, came up for him
and from her the policemen learned
the particulars of the affair.
Giuseppe Alrici went up to Mrs.
Adelaide Garaboldi's, known as "Big
Mary" at 90 Granite street, and
while there, it is alleged, he broke In
a door and met McNulty whom he
stabbed twice.

IN BUCHANAN CASE
0yeseer |. H. Thurston Reports A Poor
Showing For The City Farm

the motion of Alderman Currier the
provisions in regard to the special
taxes were stricken out, after which
the resolution was passed.
A resolution appropriating $3.50 for
Memorial day was given its first read
ing.
A resolution introduced by the
street committee was passed by which
no sewers or water mains are to be
built through any private streets until
the same are properly laid out and
accepted by the city except where
such extensions are needed to protect
the pipes or mains already laid.
1t was voted not to lay curbing for
W. D. Kidder on Third street but
that the board would accept the same
If laid to their Sa abstraction.
The report of the street committee
not to extend the sewer through
Thomas street, as it was private
street, was accepted and adopted. A
like disposition was made of similar
request for John street.
d. M. Miles made a statement In
regard to how those streets happened
to be considered private streets and
thought that the people living on
them should not be denied certain
rights. Alderman Currier explained
how the people could get the streets
made public.
City Clerk Wells announced the
receipt OF the following telegram from
F. G. Coffin, the water expert: "Will
be there tomorrow, otherwise must
wait q week.
The request OF D. M. Miles for per
mission to connect his two inch stand
pipe in his block with the city water
mains for fire protection was granted.
Overseer of the Poor l.. Il. Thurs

l. H. Peters, and said that he thought
St. Albans ought to be made to pay
the city for the expense. The matter
was referred to the city attorney with
instructions to look it up and collect
the sum due II he could.
w. F. Richardson appeared to ask
about the culvert be was notified to
build on Nelson. street, but no action
was taken on 1t.
A warrant for water pipe was or
dered paid to Phelps Bros.
Last Of all but not least came the
statement of Overseer of the Poor L.
n; Thurston to the effect that the
showing made by the city farm this
wear would be bad. Said he:- 81
Claim no glory for the present prices
nor do expect to be blamed 1or wna'
may result" He went on to say thai
according to the figures the farm hat
