Washington. Oct. 1.-THE Asso-
ciated Press bulletin from London
announcing the decision of the Alas
kan Boundary Commission was the
first intimation received by the
State Department that the commits
sion had reached an agreement.
Although news from London is ex-
ceedingly brief, the State Department
officials say that it shows a distinct
victory for the United States. II
is their opinion that the effect of the
decision regarding Portland canal
gives to Canada possession of Tears
Island, a small island in Portland ca
nal and of no special Importance.
This detail of the controversy is ad-
mitted by State Department officials
to have been open to argument on
both sides. -

FOR GRAND JURY.
HaIlowe|l Man Was Held by Judge
Andrews on Saturday.
Charge Against Him is Obtaining
Money by False Pretences.

On complaint of George w. Vickery
of Augusta, Albion Waldron Of Man.
chester, who does business in Hallowell,
was arraigned in the municipal court,
Saturday morning, charged with OBJ
tanning money by false pretences. He
pleaded not guilty, but his honor found
probable cause and ordered him to
recognize in the sum of $500 for his
appearance before the September grand
Jury. Waldron furnished surety, Mrs.
Betsy F.. Crockett and Mary E. Waldron
of Manchester, going upon the bond.
But one witness was heard in the
case, the complainant, who said that in
the early spring he had contracted with
The respondent to construct a cottage
for him and that the work was begun
and continued for q short period, about
two weeks, when Waldron came and
requested the advance of $3.50 on ac-
count. This was paid on June 5, but
again on June II, Waldron called for
and received $400, which he stated was
to be used in paying for what lumber
and other material which had been used
in the construction of the cottage and
also for such labor as had been per-
formed. 1t was for this last amount
that the complaint was made.
At the time this advancement was
made Waldron agreed to ask for no
more money until the cottage was COM
plcted and turned over to the owner.
Mr.. Vickery said that after he gave
the $500 he supposed that Mr.. Waldron
was doing as he had agreed-payng for
the lumber and other material, but that
on the following day. he received in
formation that such was not the case
and since then he had paid for all the
material used and had not seen
Mr.. Waldron.
oss-examined by Joseph William
son, attorney for Waldron, Mr.. Vickery
said that there was no written contract
and that the only agreement concerning
the advancing of money was that
Waldron said he should have to ask for
money before the job was done, us he
did not have sufficient to carry the mat
ter through, to which he had agreed.
1t was all Il verbal agreement. AT the
time Mr.. Waldron secured the money
there had been about $125 worth of
labor performed.
Mr.. Williamson did not put his client
on the stand but addressed the court,
saying that it was not case of false
prctences as it was but fair to pre-
sumo that when Mr.. Waldron secured
the money he really did intend paying
! for the lumber, as he said that he would,
so that there was no false prctencc
about it, A false pretence could only
| be maintained on wrong presentation OF
the facts of past performance and
not on something in the future, said
Mr.. Williamson.
Judge, Andrews said that in view OF
| the manner in which Waldron had kept
out of sight since securing the money
| and his failure to make an effort to af-
feet n compromise or settlement Of the
matter caused him to feel that 1t was
necessary to hold the man for the grand
| jury, which he did, as above stated.

purpose for which they had accumu-
lated, more than 100000.
Nearly 50 per cent of the assets of
the Maine savings banks are invested
within the state. These funds are
largely employed in developing local
Industries and in transecting local
business. More than $10000,000 is
loaned to carry mortgages on farms
and homes. This one item of capital
adds materially to the prosperity of
the state.
"As the 335 trustees Of the savings
banks in Maine receive but 1000 of 1
per cent on the amount of funds they
control, 1t shows the strongest evidence
of unselfish devotion to their trust.
The total amount Of savings banks
dividends paid in Maine is $40, 725, S12.57.
1.-The mere statement in figures of
the amount of property these institu-
lions represent has but little signifi-
canoe. Their Importance becomes more
apparent If compared with other bust
ness interests and values in the State.
THE amount Of these assets is more
than one-flfth as much as the entire
assessed valuation of the State, one
personal property, four times that of
all wild lands, seven times the valua-
ton of all moneys at interest, seven
times that of bank stock and three
times the capital invested IN cotton and
wooden industries.
at has been frequently urged that
the national government should estab-
lish a postal savings system. The only
reasons for this are the same used by
me in favor Of the mutual savings
bank
1.-THE friends of this system recog-
nize the value Of the work that Is being
done by private savings banks and as
sumo that an extensive government
system would extend this work, and
thus, in a greater degree, benefit the
people of this republic than can posi-
bly, be done by the now somewhat
limited system of mutual institutions.
"In Maine the savings banks are car
rying for the people of the State loans
to the amount of about $40,0O0,0O0, or
about four times the amount of all
other moneys at interest as found by
our assessors for the purpose of tax
alton.
with these funds once collected by
the general government, 1t is evident
that they could not be redistributed
and be of the same advantage to those
communities as now.
at would be absolutely impossible
for the government to enter into any
such banking business or make any
such use of these funds, and as a re-
suit they would be withdrawn from
these scattered communities and taken
to the great centers where they are the
least needed

FOR THE WAR GAME.
Gen. Farnham Is Preparing Names
Soldiers Win Care.

AS n result Of talk with Adjutant
General Farnham, who was In Port
land, Friday night, the Press of that
city on Saturday morning, contained
the following:
Adjutant General Augustus b. Farm
ham was in the city, last evening ana
held a conference at the Falmouth no.
tel with Lieutenant Hillman, the depot
quartermaster, in relation to the details
of the coming encampment OF the
Maine National Guardsmen about
Portland, during the war game. Gen.
Farnham finds himself pretty well oc-
cupied at present in making arrange
ments for this tour of duty by the
Maine Guardsmen. 1t is q departure
and a very marked one from the prac-
tice of many years, and inasmuch as
the idea is new and the regular DILL
GERS and National Guard officers have
never been called upon to act in con-
junction in these matters before there
are innumerable details to be inquired
into and arrangements made.
General Farnham is DESTROYS that the
Maine men shall aquit themselves well
and he is also anxious that the State
shall do all that is possible to send the
troops into their camps on the Cape
and the islands in first-class condition.
In order to do this it has been neces-
sary for the adjutant general to equip
them with great many articles which
have never before been required for
summer tour of duty.
The problem of the subsistence of
these men is by no means small one,
