Saturday marked the closing If tie
winter transatlantic steamship season
at Portland, one of the best winters
for business that Portland has ever
had. Portland has had four trans
atlantic services during the past sea-
son. These have been the Dominion
Lines Liverpool service. the Bristol
service of the same line, the Thomson
Lines London service and that of the
Allan Line to Glasgow. Scotland. All
of these services have done a splendid
business during the past six months,
and unlike the lines running to other
ports. Boston especially, none of the
steamships have gone out partly filled
on account of a lack of freight. Not
withstanding that the winter has been
one of the hardest on record for
northern railroads, on account of the
heavy fall of snow. the Grand Trunk
has succeeded in getting all of its
freight through 10 Portland so that
not even the sailings of the steam

The word comes from Sebago that
those VINO are looking forward to the
first fishing in the lake are likely to
have their opportunity about the mid
die of this week. At East Sebago it is
reported that the ice has broken up
somewhat around the mouth of the
Songo and by Tuesday or Wednesday
there may be enough clear water to al
low the early fishermen to cast a fly.
At Sebago Lake Station the report is
not quite 50 encouraging. As yet the ice
shows no Immediate signs of dissolu-
ton and it is estimated that there will
be no clear water to amount to any
thing for at least a week yet, although
"f course warm rain and high wind
might alter conditions.

III. T. Leibert, architect, being
present, stated as follows: 1T is
impractical to build an addition to
the schoolhouse in use in the village,
as the cost of tue addition would
amount TO about the same as q new
four room building. II an addition
were added, 1t would have to be in
front OF the one now In use, and ex-
tend easteriy toward Lyon street,
which would be detrimental to the
school grounds, and when complete
the front of the building would be
facing south. To make this change
it would be necessary TO overhaul
the interior OF the present building,
which would be very expensive and
put the building out of commission
at least four months. The cost in
either case will be about the same.
If an addition is built, it will cost
about twelve thousand dollars, but
new heating plant will have to be
added, as the one in use is too small
to heat the addition A brick or
stone four-room building complete,
with heating plant large enough to
heat the two buildings, would cost
about fourteen thousand dollars"
Resolved, That it is the sense OF
this board that three schoolhouses
be built. One in the village OF Bar
aga, on ground owned by the school
district; one at Pelkie, and one on

FOR TARIFF REVISION.
National Manufacturers Association
Goes on Record.


New York, May 24-The National
Association of Manufacturers Of the
United States has gone on record in
favor of a revision of the tariff at the
earliest opportunity and the negotia-
ton of more reciprocity treaties.
A lively debate preceded the vote,
which was upon the acceptance Of the
report Of the committee on tariff and
reciprocity. The committee based its
recommendations on a poll of 5000
members of the association. Of the
total number replying So per cent de-
clared for immediate revision, while
20 per cent expressed hands on
sentiment. Eight per cent believed
that the time for revision had not
arrived and the other II per cent ex-
pressed Indifference or made noncom-
initial answers.
An effort to table the report was
defeated and it was adopted as 're-
ported.
