MANDAMUS
CASE NOT
ARGUED.
Attorney Tanner Representing
Paxtuckst Aldermen Secured
Continuance for q Week.

There were many disappointed citizens
aud ofrice-holders from Pawtucket in the
appellate division Of the supreme court
The question of whether or not the COM
mon council can compel the board OF al
dermen 10 meet I'm joint session for the
purpose Of electing a board Of license
commissioners will not be deter mined
through the courts at least for week.
The controversy came before the court
today on a petition for writ OF manda-
mus.
Chief Justice stiness called the docket
OF motions in the appellate division Of the
supreme court. one OF the first cases
called was that OF State VS. Board OF AL
dermen OF Pawtucket and eX-Attorney
General w. r. Tanner asked permission
OF MIR. Bassett's counsel for the commit
tee Of the common council TO address the
court first
Mr. Tanner said he was retained yester-
day by four members OF the board OF al
dermen OF Pawtucket and had not had
time 10 prepare 90 argue the case. IL
was not an urgent case Mr.. Tanner ar
sued as, according 20 his view OF the
law. the old commissioners held over and
there did not seem 10 be any good rea-
son why the regular course OF pleading
should he interfered with. The city coun-
Gil could AT any time IL wished elect H.
cense commissioners. Mr.. Tanner said he
was not ready to say whether he would
fle n return or traverse the facts
Chief Justice Stiness thought that Mr..
Tanner was entitled 20 time 10 prepare.
Mr.. Tanner asked for postponement OF
a week.
Mr.. Bassett at this point declared the
matter was an urgent one. and that the
allegations in the petition for the writ
were very simple the chief allegation be-
ing that the board OF aldermen had re-
fused 20 meet the common council In
Joint session for the purpose of electing
license commissioners. az the board OF al
dermen was required by law 20 DO. Mr.
Bassett also said motion 10 quash. a
return or a demurrer could be prepared
very readily. lie thought the respond
ents might have engaged counsel earlier
and did not believe the commissioners
held over
In reply % Mr. Bassett. Mr. Tanner
said the case was not a simple one and
he thought there was a question as ~
whether or not the petition was properly
brought.
After Mr. Tanner had agreed 20 waive
his right 10 file a return and demurrer
successivei-. though Mfr. Bassett suggest
ed a hearing on wednesday, chief jus
tice stiness postponed the hearing zone

But under the rules OF this game the

was nothing left for her TO do but ay

that Admiral Sands rushed on towards
the harbor he had picked out as the best
along the coast anu right into the center

flag hanging from the main. 1t was the

II was about half past 4 o'clock when
the Olympias wireless message was re-
ceived on the Kearsarge Rear Admiral
Barker's flag ship were the Alabama and
the Illinois. General quarters were
sounded on the Kearsarge Immediately
on receiving the message. The long
strain OF watching and waiting OF wor-

The enemy were not far away and the

and Portsmouth when this alarm was re-
celved. they would have marvelled much
at the promptness with which the Amer
lean navy does things.
In a remarkably short time the Kear-
sarge was under way followed in turn
by the Alabama and the Illinois, black
clouds OF smoke pouring out from their
stacks and the foam boiling under the
forefoot. The Kearsarge raced awav
towards Bakers island through the mist
OF early morning. At her guns the jack
les shivered in the cold but they were
ready for business.
While Admiral Sands squadron was
rushing shoreward Admiral Barker and
his three battleships followed by num-
ber OF torpedo boat destroyers and tugs
were racing 10 meet them. The result
was inevitable for Admiral Sands knew
that 81 would now be impossible for him

was keenly alive TO the fact that this
morning OF all since the search problem
commenced was the most favorable TO

thick fog bank which rolled in from the
sea after midnight made 1t impossible to

Dewey's old flagship could do was to de-

Admiral Sands feet was then so close
the chances OF the Olympia getting away
were small indeed. She had been seen al
most at the same moment the men on
the Olympia had sighted the white
squadron. There was no need for the bu-
Rlers TO sound general quarters on any
OF Admiral Sands fset. These ships were
rushing towards the harbor that had been
selected OF all those between Cape Ann
and Eastport as the most favorable for
their plans and every guns crew had
turned in by the side OF their gun ready
for action.
