INFANTS BODY
Found by Piscataquis Of
ficia|S at Parkman.
Fourth Case Of Intanticide
Within the Past Year.
Perpetrators Cover Tracks Sue.
cessfuIIy, LeavingKo Clue.

Dover, Me-, Aug. 20.-(SpeciaD.- /.
The piscataquis county officials are
considerably exercised over the finding
of the remains of an Infant at Park
man last Saturday. Cases of this sort
are getting altogether too common nc-
curronccs in this county and the Off
Gals are at y loss to devise some way
of reaching the guilty person.
1t is the third Of fourth ease of the
kind within Il year Last fall or early
in the winter the station agent at
Monsoon Junction found the remains
of a new born infant on the railroad
track with every idication that it had
bee thrust from a toilet room on the
train from Bangor to Greenville. The
case was investigated but no evidence
OF any kind could be secured.
Last winter 4 young woman at
Parkman cut tie throat of her infant
child but investigation that followed
showed, according to the expert tcSti-
mony by physicians. that the child
was dead before the injuries had been
inflicted by the scissors III the han Is
of the mother and consequently no in
dictmcnt was returned by t. grand
jury.
Several weeks ago parties at Green
Vile found the well developed body Of
an infant child floating under some
loss i'll Mooschrad' Lake. An inquest
was started but up, to this time no
verdict from the core cr's jury las
been handed in. Tic a)unty officials
have mad" quite Il thorough invcstiga-
ton of the Grcrnlillc case but have
secured SmuH evidence against the
suspected ,'arty ana il is doubted if an
arrest is ever mad" in the case.
There is practically ahe doubt but
that the cases are infanticide pure and
Simpl" but 50 carefully have the gully
parties covered their tracks that de-
lection is almost an impossibility.

moberg Finishes Grading Contract.

John Moberg, who has a contract
to grade about three miles of the
right-of-way near the Kabekona
gulch twenty-five miles south of
Bemidji in the Lake George country
for a railroad which the Red River
Lumber company will build into the
gulch, has completed his contract.
The road is a necessity for getting
out the pine that stands along the
gulch, which is in an exceedingly
billy country, where logging with
teams would be out of the question.
Mr.. Moberg began his grading early
in the spring, and the task of
putting the roadbed in condition for
the rails has been no small one.

Chicago, Aug. 29-The old saying
that murder will out" came true in
an unusual way when Policeman
Frank Walsh awakened a man who
was asleep in doorway of the Illinois
hospital, Washington boulevard and
Halsted street.
The man, long a fugitive from JUS
tice, opened his eyes, saw the police
mans star and leaped to his feet with
a shrek.
You want me for the murder! You
are policeman" he cried as he stood
dazed, before Walsh. A moment aft
erward he collected his wits and ran,
but the policeman, drawing his revol-
yer, forced the man to stop and led
him to the station.
At the station the prisoner at first
denied being murderer, but later
broke down and confessed that he is

SIXTY BILLS PASSED.
British Parliament Ends Long
and ArduouS Session.
MINISTERS TO KEEP BUSY

Member Of Cabinet Will Begin to Pre-.
pare Important Reform Measure to
Be Presented at the Opening Of the
Next Parliament.
London, Aug. 29.-With picturesque
old time ceremonial the British par"
lament was prorogued during the day,
thus ending one Of the longest and
most arduous sessions, during which
the royal assent was given to over
sixty bills which the two houses
passed.
The members of the house of COM
mons assembled at noon and shortly
afterwards they were summoned to
the house of lords, where the kings
speech was read. The statements
made were Of the usual colorless char
acter, referring to the recent royal
visits and the friendly relations exist
ing between Great Britain and the
other powers, the conclusion of the
agreement with Spain and the peace
conference at The Hague, concluding
with a review of the most important
bills passed during the session.
While the propagation enables pri'
vate members of parliament to pro-
coed to the enjoyment of the holidays
the ministers have prepared a long
programme for themselves. The pres
ident of the board Of trade, Mr.. Lloyd
George, and the president of the local
government board, Mr.. Burns, are 60
ing to Germany, where they will study
trade development and social reforms
with the view to the Introduction into
Great Britain of some of the German
methods. The under secretary of the
colonies, Winston Spencer Churchill,
is starting for Uganda, returning by
the Nile, and all of them will assem-
Bile in Loi. don during the month of
November to plan the work of the
next session, which, if their promises
are carried out, will be buster than the
one just closed and bring nearer to a
climax the conflict between the house
Of commons and the house of lords.
Sweeping reforms will be intro
duced, chief of which will be the
licensing and educational bills and the
proposed housing reform and regener-
alton of the port of London. These
measures are ready to be introduced
into parliament when it reassembles
early in the new year. AS soon as one
bill is passed another will be present
ed, thus avoiding the criticism levelled
at the chief measures of the past ses-
sion, that the legislation was hastily
prepared and that the lords were not
given time to fully consider the bills
brought before the upper house.
