STATE SEALER
FINDS 1000
SHORT BASKETS

In the annual report OF George III. Pet
tbs, state sealer of weights and measures.
which was received by Governor Higgins
yesterday he says that there are at pres
ent over 1000 undersized coal baskets now
in use in the state.
Mr.. Pettis says that 800 OF those bas-
kets are in use in this city. The coal
dealers claim is that the coal delivered
in these baskets is sold by weight, this
making a conviction impossible.
On this the state sealer says: "If the
law required that coal I'm lots OF less than
500 pounds weight should be sold In prop
erly sealed standard baskets, persons
could not evade the law with impunity as
they do now"
MIR. Pettis also includes I'm his report a
recommendation for the general assem-
bly, TO pass law providing for the test
Ing of milk jars without charging a fee
by the salarled sealers OF the state. and
that where the city and town sealers are
paid by fees, the amount be paid by the
town treasurers, as under the Massa-
chusetts law.
He also recommends that charge be
made In the law In respect to the fees
allowed by the general statutes. so that
there shall not be different scale Of fees
In different towns, as at present, and for
establishment OF schedule of fees for
sealing scales in proportion TO their size.
At present the fee is the same for sealing
four-pound scale as it is for Ia $500
pound scale.
During the year the following weights
and measures We're found below Standard
One railroad track scale, "a wagon scales.
"a dormant scales, 1H platform scales, II
beam scales, 46 grocers' scales, Al trip
scales. IS union scales. 2o3 spring balances,
steelyards. 4O2 ayoirdupois weights, 1888
dry measures. 272 liquid measures, 6 yard
sticks, ! counter measure, scales for
weighing persons. y73 milk jars and $50
milk cans.
The number of milk jars sealed during

BUT ARE BEATEN

Tifiis. Trans-Caucasia, Dec. 14.--A band
of 60 robbers attacked and derailed the
mail train running between Tifiis and
Baku last night near the station OF Sa-
lakhlu. The train was carrying a large
sum of money The train guard repulsed
the bandits after a fight in which many
passengers and soldiers We're wounded.
The bandits finally retreated, leaving four
dead behind them,
The attack was daringly conceived and
carried out. Thirty yards of track on a
down grade had been torn up and the
train, running at full speed, plunged its
way over the ties. Both locomotives and
most OF the cars were ditched.
The robbers, who were in hiding nearby,
Immediately came out and advanced on
the train guards and passengers. They
threw eight bombs and opened heavy
fire on the confused travellers. The train
guards rallied quickly and returned this
fire from behind the mass of wreckage.
They held their ground tenaciously until
the robbers were driven Off, carrying their
wounded with them.
A hospital train has brought a number
of the wounded passengers and guards
into Tiiis. Troops are in pursuit of the
robbers
