Breaks Loose From Steamer.

The Pretoria broke loose from tho steamer that was towing her during tho storm and today Captain Wandring of the steamer Mary Doyle, reported that spars of a sunl1en, three-masted schooner could be seen n short distance from the outer island of the Apostle group, about a hundred miles from Duluth. The Olive Jeannett 1t Is believed went to the bot tom about ten miles from portage entry. mass of wreckage was sighted by the steamer Jaunita near that point. and al- though the identity of tho ship has not been completely established there seems little doubt that 1t was the Olive Jean- nett.
 The storm at times reached the propor- tions of a hurricane, and the staunchest new steel vessels were forced to run for shelter in q more or less disabled con- diton. The new steamer Stackhouse ar- rived at the Soo on her first trip with her hatch covers so badly sprung that water poured continually Into the hold. One of the crew was washed overheard. The whaleback steamer Samuel Mathes also lost one of her crew overheard.
 The terrible battering the steel steamers received gives rise to the gravest fears for the safety of many wooden ships which have not yet been reported, and the record of death and destruction may reach much greater proportions than the present estimates.

Loss Is Enormous.

Duluth, Minn., September 4-Eighteen or twenty lives were lost and property valued at half million dollars was de- strowed in the furious storm which swept over Lake Superior Saturday and Sum day The gale was the most destructive to lake shipping that has been exper- fenced in many years
 Besides the wreck of the steel steamer Sevonia, which broke in two on Sand Island reef, seven of the crew losing their lives, it Is now believed that two more ships were lost with theisA- entire crews One of these Is thought to be the schooner Pretoria of Bay City, Mich, the largest sailing ship on fresh water and carrying a crew of eight men The other Is believed to be the schooner Olive Jean nett, which carried a crew of eight mon.

have this great work at heart to knew
what is being done elsewhere, and
will doubtless spur them on to con-
sinue the work in this State.
One of the public school men of
Mai. e has recently received a letter
from leading educator of Virginia,
from which we make the following
extract: GIN May we have arranged
to have about 100 of the most promi-
nent men in the state talk to our peo-
pie on improving our common schools.
From all indica ions, public education
win be the chief issue in Virginia for
the next few years. Discussion has
again entered into the life of the
state. Principles instead of preju-
dices and personalities are to become
the marrow of political parties. All
this means more than you can
imagine"

FROM THE LAW COURT.
New Trial Granted in the Case oil
Holmes VS.. Morrison.

New Trial Granted in the Case of
Holmes VS.. Morrison.
TIE law court has set aside tue verdict
IN the case OF Myra 5. Ho mes, OF Mt
Desert, VS.. Char e, c. dorrison ct ais. of
Bar Hsrbor, and granted the plaintiff
new trial. Tue ,ss WAS heard last year
in the Hancock county supreme court by
Justice Strout. Following 10 line decis on
of he law court:
This Is a suit upon seven promissory notes
given by the firm of NJ. Z. Morrison & Co.
Three OF the notes were givt n to the plaintiff.
payable on demand, the other four acre given
to Myra Estelle Morrison, and endorsed 20 the
plaintih, one dated Aug. q, 1885, payable five
days after sight, one dated March /, 1886. pay
able three days after sight. one dated Nov. .,
1885, payable three days after sight, ard one
dated Jan. /, lss7, pay aole three days after
sight.
The defense to the four notes given Myra
Estelle was the statute of limitations. The
writ was dated March 81, 1913. 4, In evidence,
lncontradicted, that these four notes were first
presented to the defendants about January.
1900. The plaintif had verdict for e amount
of the three notes originally given to her. but
cluded. The plaintiff moves that the verde be
set aside upon the ground that IL should have
included these four notes
II they are the notes originally given they are
not barred by the statute of limitations, be-
cause suit was brought less than six years after
theii first presentation.
But the defendant. Charles G. Morrison. says
they not the original notes. that the notes
presented to him in October. 1901, were all pay.
able on demand, and not any number Of days
after sight. He says he made memorandum
of the dates and amounts of the notes, but not
of the times of payment. AS TO that be trusts
TO his recollection But he admits that he did
not know the difference In leaa effect between a
note payable on demand and one payable at
sight, or a number of days after sight. His
theory is. that TO avoid the statute OF lmita
tions, 81. C. Morrison. after the presentation TO
c. Z. Morrison, made these notes In substi.u-
ton for the original.
Mrs. Morrison testified emphaticaily that
these notes were the original. NJ C. Morrison
testides that these notes were the notes he gave
his wife, Myra Estelie.
Against this testimony aud the presumption
against fraud that always exists TIL clearly
proved 10 the contrary, stands the bare reco.
lection of e. c. Morrison, alone, and as he says
he did not understand the difference between q
note on demand and at sight, IL Is a fair and
strong inference that his attention was not at.
tracted 10 the time of payment when he saw the
notes, but assumed them to be on demand, as
the notes given to the plaintiff were.
The evidence strongly preponderates
against the defendants contention that we are
constrained to believe that the jury failed TO
! appreciate it's force, and that the verdict is
clearly wrong In excluding the four notes given
TO Myra EsteiIe Morrison.
Motion sustained.
Verdict set aside.
New trial granted.

Concerning Lumber Coasting."

ELLSWORTH, Feb. Is, 1905.
To the Editor Of the Neirs:
/ noticed a munication 10 late
issue of the Ne,os, complaint against
Noticeable condition of the lumber
coaster, in consequence of the unreason-
able detention at dischsrging ports by the
refusal or neglec, of consignee to receive
the cargo.
Having myself served in that trade more

reasonable detention without compenss-
zion need be endped.
The United States laws regulating COM
merce make it compulsory for the con-
signee to receive the cargo promptly when
it is reported ready to deliver. 1t matters
not what the cargo Is, nor = hat kind OF 3
vessel it is in.
The time is usually matter of bargain
and written in charter party or bill u
Isding; II the word dispaic Gu il used it

II no mention Is mads of days or ley

forty eight hours, after receiving report,
to begin to receive cargo and take it as

1t is no answer that lie has no berth or
others are occupying 1t; demurrsge must
be paid day By day, and cargo Is holden to

What room Is there for complaint? The
law is ample, to Which have had frequent

To the Editor of The american:
As we journey about from place to place
friends throughout the country, and to
plan TO write them-to give them a share
10 the pleasures We are enjoying. Time
is so limited on this trip that we decided
on a company IL tier via the ELLsw ORTIZ
AMERICAN to carry a word OF greeting.
We wish our friends could all be with
US in this sunny land this beautiful day.
True, 1t has been cold here, and the green
things growing were nipped by the frost
two weexs ago, and people yet suffer from
toe colds contracted then. But to US,
coming from the frozen North, II seems
almost like summer to be able to go out
with no wraps, not even hat, to see
in bloom in the gardens, and to listen to
the hooking bird singing to his mate, as
did yesterday at Biloxi and to-day here
up along the beach.
On coming to this winter resort we did
not 60 to the hotel, as at Montgomery,
Pensacola, Mobile and Biloxi, though We
had friends at Mexican Cult hotel. We
had nearly reached New Orleans and seen
nothing OF a real southern home.
After little inquiry we found accom-

1t Is perfectly delightful here. The

and wide halls running through the

morning and night to remove any chill,
and the windows at least eight feet high
opening on the porehes.

comes TO light your fire and bring you hot
water. When we came down to breakfast
