Of Lords in adopting Lord Transformers
amendment 70 the finance bill, 4. T..
O'Connor, M. p. one of the Irish Ma
tionalist leaders in the House OF Com
mons and now in this country IN the In
terests OF Irish home rule, SAID toIlSht
that the rejection of the budget ny the
British peers announced their own doom
and he believed it would precipitate an
uprising of the masses in one of the bit
| terest fights known to English politics
| for century. In addition the turn Oh
events he said would act as vigorous
incentive to the cause of Ireland's indie
pendence.
II am greatly pleased and so is every
one who is an enemy of the House of
Lords said Mr.. O'Connor. Every Lib
eral and, still more, every irish Natlon-
alist has known for several generations
that it was impossible to have anything
like steady Liberal progress so lopg as
the House of Lords retained It's power TO
defeat or postpone all democratic leSls-
lation. Ireland has been the special suf-
ferer from the present power OF that
body, for the House of Lords consisted
almost exclusively of the landlords, who
have been the curse and enemy OF Ire
land; and from the days of O'Connell
downward every single reform or the
scores we have won has had to be won
in the face of the opposition of the House
Of Lords. It's hostility to Ireland has
been maintained steadily to the end; for
now it stands alone in the way of home
rule measure.
''As to the effect in England, ] be-
lieve the rejection of the budget will
lead to an uprising of the masses, the
strength of which the Lords has failed
to realize. They will realize it before
many hours. / believe we are on the eve
of the fercest fight we have seen in
British politics for a century; that the
fight will go against the Lords; that
they have pronounced their own doom;
and that before two or three years from
now their power of mischief will be so
broken as practically to be non-existent.
This means the final emancipation of
the English masses from the grip of
feudalism, and of Ireland from govern
ment of an alien Parliament"

San Jose, Cal, Nov. 30.-Maurice
Council. observer at the United States
weather bureau and a survivor of the
Greedy North pole expedition. defends
DIR. Frederick A. Cook from the recent
attack of Walter Welman.
Taking up the main points of the
Wellman charges, Mr.. Council de-
clared that instead of having to take
food from Annatok, distance of 700
miles from the pole. the Cook party
killed SO much game during the last
part of the journey that upon reach
ing Cape Hubbard-400 miles from the
pole, they had a greater quantity of
supplies than when they started from
Annatok.
The fact that Cook, three days out
from Cape Hubbard, cut down his
party to two Esquimaux and 26 picked
dogs, according to Council, is further
reason why he could have made better
and unilnpeded progress.
"Wellman tells us that he could
manufacture latitude observation at

'Ic anything was needed to confirm
Cooks claim that he had reached the
pole in April, 1908, Peary's narrative
of the Journey made by himself in 1909
would confirm it. Cook stated that no
land exists at the pole: so says Peary.
Cook said that the ice foes were of
larger extent and smoother as the pole
was neareG and that there were fewer
pressure ridges; so says Peary.

EXCEPTIONS OvERRULED.
Law Court Hands Down Rescript in
Aracnault Nuisance Case.

The law court Tuesday handed down
+ a rcscript il The common nuisance case
against Benoit Arsenault Of Augusta,
overruling exceptions of the respond
| ent in which a defective Indictment
was claimed. The rescript is as fol-
lows:
! State of Maine VS.. Benoit Arsenault.
! Rescript, Peabody, j.
The offence charged against the re-
J spOndent is keeping common nuis-
ance defined by R. s. Chapter 90, Sec
/ ton l.
| The respondent filed a demurrer to
! the indictment which was overruled by
! the presiding judge. and the question
! is before the law court on his excep-
tions. He contends that the indiet-
ment is defective because it does not
allege that he kept certain place and
that the place was used for illegal pur-
poses. All the prohibited acts and
conditions mentioned in the Statute
need not be alleged or proved. If the
indictment alleges any one of these
causes and charges the respondent
with keeping and maintaining such
place, it is sufficient.
Only one offence is charged, that of
keeping a statutory nuisance, although
several causes constituting it are set
out. II the respondent kept a place for
the illegal sale of Intoxicating liquors,
place used for the illegal keeping of
intoxicating liquors, or one affected by
all the specific acts and conditions
enumerated in the Statute, he is guilty
of the offence charged The penalty is
L. ,o1a fn,. %
these illegal purposes than for all and
a conviction for keeping the place
which is created public nuisance by
any one of these causes, would be
bar to any other indictment for any
or all others specified in the Statute
for the period of time covered by the
indictment
1t is here charged (among other
things) that the respondent used a
certain tenement occupied by him as
dwelling house for the illegal keep
ing and illegal sale of Intoxicating
liquors. The terms distinctly aIlege
that he used the place for the illegal
keeping and illegal sale of Intoxicating
liquors
No words can more clearly express
the habitual keeping and maintaining
of place by the respondent himself
for unlawful purposes than the words
did use" If this definite expression
of the respondents use Of the place
might be considered as excluding or
leaving indefinite the charge of his
keeping or maintaining the dwelling
house for other things predicated of
the place. they may be rejected as sur
plussage. But we think these matters
also are well pleaded.
The indictment states that the dwell
ing house occupied by the respondent
was place where other illegal prac-
tees were carried on, which by Statute
constitute a common nuisance, and
thereupon it alleges that he kept and
maintained such a nuisance. This is
sufficient, it being unnecessary to al
lege in terms that he did, knew Of, or
consented to the acts and conditions
prohibited.

LOVER SHOOTS GIRL
THEN KILLS HIMSELF

Reading, Pa, Feb. 17.-While
speeding along in a ,taxicab here ear
ly this morning, Stella Rocktashel,
18 years old, was shot and killed and
her companion, George e. Kraut, 20
years old, after directing the chauf-
feur to hurry to the hospital, shot
himself through the heart with the
same revolver that had killed the
girl, dying almost instantly. Whether
there had been a quarrel OF the two
had agreed to die together has not
been definitely determined. Kraut was
a telephone inspector. Yesterday he
asked several acquaintances to lend
him revolver, saying he wanted to
go to a masquerade ball. AS there was
no public masquerade ball in town
last night the police are of the opin-
ion that the case is one of premedi-
tated murder and suicide. The couple
engaged the taxicab in the business
section of town about two O'Clock and
srdered the chauffeur to drive to the
girls home on the north side. When
in the vicinity OF her home the chauf-
feur was startled at a shot, and the
young man ordered him to drive to
the hospital. AS they were halting at
the hospital door a second shot rang
out. An examination showed both to
be dead in their seats.

TEDDY ON
The CANAL

Washington, Feb 17.-Any attack
made hereafter on the lock type of
Panama canal, according to the opin-
ion expressed by President Roosevelt,
in a message transmitted to congress
today with the report made by the
engineers who recently visited the
canal scene with President-elect w.
H. Taft, sis in reality merely an al
tacks upon the policy of building any
canal at alb The report in the Pres
ident's opinion. shows in the clearest
fashion that congress was wise in
the position 1T took, and it would be
ineNcusable folly to change from the
proposed lock canal to sea level
canal. The President calls attention
particularly to the character and
standing of the engineers who went
to Panama, and says that of all the
men In their profession they are on
the whole the best qualified to pass
upon this very question which they
have examined. He then calls atten-
tion to their report on the dam to
which they gave first consideration
In the opinion of the engineers the
dam is in every respect satisfactory
and meets their unanimous approval.
Their estimate of the complete cost
of the canal is $36O,00O, 900. Common
dation is expressed at the present
condition of the work, and the engi-
neers voice the belief that in no great
construction work has so much ever
been done for the employees in the
way of of furnishing the necessities,
comforts and luxuries of life The cost
of this is one of the reasons for the
high cost of the canal. They see no
reason why the canal should not be
completed as estimated by the chief
engineer, by January, 1915.
