zen. 40 man in Maine had a more
enviable war record. He was the only
of 4 medal for distinguished bravery
and service by special act of Con-
gress. He served during the war as an
officer in the LIST Maine Cavalry, and
participated in all of the engagements
in watch that fighting regiment took
part.
HeWas born in Bangor Sept. s, 1889,

A Tie in NeWfOund=
land Legislature.

st. John, n. F., Nov. Incomplete re-
turns from the general election Of Nov.
l shows that Sir Robert Bond, the pre-
mier. and Sir Edward Morris. the leader
of the Opposition forces. will each have
IS supporters in the Legislature. Late TO-
day the vote of the last district to be
heard from. st. Barbe, was received.
showing the election Of Clapp. the BOND
candidate, by 305 majority. The situation
is the most unique in New Foundland
political records, and may be settled only
by the ordering of another general elec-
ton. which will undoubtedly he done by
the lieutenant governor if neither party
is able to form government Waich VIII
have the confidence of the Legislature.
In the third division OF Harbor Grace,
Hon. Mr.. Dave. minister q fisheries in
the The Bond cabinet. was elected on the
face of the returns by only one majority.
Next week a recount will be held before
the supreme court. Should the recount
show the defeat of Dave. the opposition
would have two majority, but a Speaker
would have to be chosen, thus leaving a
margin of one vote on the floor of the
Legislature, a majority too slight for any
government to depend upon for any
length of time.
If the parties continue to stand is to
us. the election of u Speaker by either
side would give the Opposition 4 slight
advantage on the floor. but as the par
ties now stand there is no certainty that
a Speaker can be chosen. unless by mutu-
al agreement. What the outcome or the
election will be is problematic.

Witness in Pouren Case
Dogged|y Shakes Head.
Refuses 10 Give Names, Which
Might Injure His Friends.
A Striking Illustration Of What
Russian People Must Endure.

New York, Nov. 10..-In an endeaVor
to show that Jan knott Pouren was
a fearless soldier in the revolutionary
army in Russia and not d murderer
and robber as the Russian government
contends i'll the extraditlon proceedings
now being conducted by United States
Commissioner Hitchcock here, the de-
fence today called a witness, who tes-
titled that he fought side by side with
Pouren in the Russian conflicts Waged
by the Revolutionary party. This wit
ness, Jan OSolin of Boston, tuid of
fleeing to this country in 1905, because
he feared, he said. that the Russian
police would murder him. He made his
testimony unusually dramatic by the
fear he displayed on the stand lest by
scme way he might give the names Of
the leaders of the Revolutionary move
ment. When asked why he feared to
give the names. Osolin replied:
Their homes would be burned and
they would be murdered-my home was
burned and / would have been MUIR
dered had l not escaped
Both sides tried to induce the wit
ness to give names and dates so that
his testimony could be verified, but
Osolin closed his lips tightly, grippe u
the arms of the witness chair firmly
and doggedly shook his head, signify
ing that no power on earth would drag
the names from him. His attitude of
silence eventually led to an early adj
journment of the session.
When speaking of his association
with Pouren, Osolin spoke With free
dom. He told of the election of Pouren
to the Revolutionary militia, which
army, the witness said, was organized
to combat the BLACK Hundred" forces,
farmers and the barons and Dragons,
who. the witness said, aided in OPP
pressing the working people. Osolin re-
lated how he himself had been elected
a member of the executive committee
of the Socialist Democrat party ard of
the efforts of that party to secure high
er wages for the working classes and
to close the government liquor stores.
Osolin told of a battle that took place
at Livarn, in which Pouren fought,
showing exceptional bravery. There
was much testimony on the burning of
homes, the persecution of farmers and
the like in OSolin'S narrative. The life
of Pouren in the woods when he had
been made a fugitive was also de-
scribed as the witness had known it.
With Osolin still on the stand re-
fusing to give names, the case was adj

Atlanta, Ga, in case he loses his fight
for new trial.
Judge Hough gave as his reason for
refusing to admit Morse to bail the
fact that the case was not an extra
ditable one and that it would be easy
for Morse to furnish bail through a
bonding company, as the prisoner was
worth $22 100000. Morse in an atfi-
davit presented to the judges of the
United States court OF appeals yester-
day denied that he was a millionaire,
saying that he had not enough money
or securities to meet his obligations.
These We're principal points con-
considered by the judges in arriving
at their decision to deny bail. 1t is
said that the Morse attorneys will take
advantage of the opportunity to file a
bill of particulars. as their client is
