Gregory Times: Gregory will have
electric lights in the near future.
That much is now assured. On Mon
day night the city council will be
asked to grant franchise to an cleo.
trio light company that is being form.
ed and $500 worth of stock has al.
ready been subscribed. The Home
stead Land company has been ap.
preached by number of citizens and
the proposition put up to them for the
use of their new building for the
plant, and they will grant the use of
part of it for that purpose. The new
electric light company is not yet in
corporated, but will be at once. Ten
thousand dollars is needed for the
plant, and enough is now in sight to
insure going ahead with the organiza-
ton. The stockholders will control
the company. A thoroughly compe-
tent electrical engineer is here this
week looking over the ground and will
take hold of the plant. AS soon as the
stock is subscribed work will be begun
on the plant.

Raises Fund for the Poor.

c. II. Groesbeck is going to be Santa
Claus again this year, as he was last,
to Norfolk's poor. Though there aren't
many families in the city who are in
distress, there are a few who need
help of one sort and another, and Mr..
Groesbeck has volunteered his time
toward raising a charitable fund to be
used intelligently in relieving those
who are deserving.
Mr., Groesbeck started out Wednes-
day and within comparatively few
minutes had raised $16.25. This fund
has been placed in trust at The News
office and Mr.. Groesbeck wishes that
all those willing to give would hand
their subscription either to him, to
Harry Hartford at Leonard's drug
store, or to The News. Sums of 20
cents to 81 are wanted. Not more
than 81 is desired. Later the fund
will be placed in the bank, to be used
judiciously.
Following is the list of contributions
which Mr., Groesbeck raised within an
hour Tuesday:

thoroughly and in detail and we are
satisfied that all these different re-
solves should have a passage.
Another thing occurs to me. Is 1t not
a fact that the man who has been su-
perintendent of this institution for A.
wears to tho entire satisfaction Of the
incoming and outgoing trustees, must
have been under the observation dur
ing that time of very many inquisltiVe
and even suspicious members Who were
on the lookout for Encouragement and
neglect? Yet no one has ever question
cd his ability on integrity. Is it not
greatly to the credit of man to hold
the office of steward and treasurer for
more than % years and yet not once IN
all these years has there been found
any irregularities in his accounts, al
though they are audited four times q
year by tire trustees and once q year
b. a public accountant? Is it not fair
to assume that if there had been any
thing in the way of graft 1t would
have been discovered long before this
/ move you, Mr.. Speaker, that the re-
selves have a passage.
Mr.. PETERS of Ellsworth: Mr..
Speaker: l don't know anything about
these hospitals; I don't know that |
want to- l don't know anything about
the details of these expenditures;
leave that entirely to the committee
but I do have the pleasure of an ac-
quaintance with some of the members
OF the board of trustees Of these hos
pitfalls. One of them the people of Ken
nebec county have sufficient confidence
in to elect a member of the upper
branch Another the people Of Han
cock county have had sufficient con-
| fiGence in to make judge of probate
of Hancock county Another the Leg
| iSlature once made commissioner of sea
| and shore fisheries. Another, a lady
with whom | am personally acquant-
| ed, exemnlies the very highest type
of Womanhood. I want to say that
| think the State Of Maine is exceedingly
! fortunate in being able to procure and
| continue to procure the services Of
| such people as these. I think it il
in rather poor taste to criticise tlie
| feet that some of them are present
when the business of their institutions
comes UP for investigation and actior
| ly the Legislature ] think they would
be subject to criticism if they stayed
away when these matters were under

when we see those gentlemen here We
ought not to presume that they como
here with any desire or purpose OF
| lobbying or with any other purpose
than the high minded purpose they al
have to see that the affairs Of these in
situations of which they carry on the
work are properly and reasonably look

u. S. SENDS NOTE
TO NICARAGUANS
[Ry Associated Press.l

WASHINGTON, March 17.-Much
interest is attached to the note which
Secretary Knox dispatched yesterday
to Senior Espinosa, the Nicaraguan
minister.
The note is supposed to contain a
statement of the governments atti-
tude on the Emery claim, which the
United States has been trying to have
arbitrated for years.
That the permanent establishment
of peaceful conditions in Central
America may be brought about by the
United States and Mexico is the opin-
ion held, and the wish expressed by the
large South American countries. ac-
cording to a statement today of a
prominent government official and a
close student of Latin American af-
fairs.
He declared there had been a change
of attitude in these countries toward
the United States, an attitude which
would not have been possible several
years ago.
He pointed out that the administra-
ton papers in Brazil, Argentine and
other countries were favoring action
by this government, vigorous enough
to force Central American republics to
realize that the welfare of all the
American republics demand that they
remain in peace.

rBy Associated Press.J

MONTREAL, Que, March 17.-Four
persons were killed and thirty injured
as the result of the blowing out OF
washout pipe on the locomotive haul
ing the Boston express, due at the
Windsor street station on the Canadian
Pacific railroad here today.
Three miles out from the station
scalding steam filed the cab and the
engineer and firemen were forced to
jump.
The train, without guiding hand at
the throttle, dashed into the station,
through the granite wall into the wo-
mems waiting room, and then into the
rotunda, where the locomotive. after
demolishing one massive pillar, was
brought to stop by another.
The four persons killed were sitting
in the women's waiting room. They
are:

SON OF MRS. NIXON, 13 wears old.
DAUGHTER OF MRS. NIXON, 8
years old.

children were lying on the platform
when he stepped from the train.

BRITISH WATCH
TARIFF CHANGE
ENGLAND MUCH INTERESTED
IN NEW SCHEDULES
PERFORMERS WAIT FOR WANE OF
PROTECTION"
Proposed Application Of Extra Duty on
Tea viii Severely Affect Trade
There-Steei Reduction
Benefits


LONDON. March 1.-THE question
of tariff revision has an unusual inter-
est Cor the British public.
The realization that there must be
an ever-increasing expenditure in the
navy to add to the budget difficulties
already brought about by liberal soclal
reforms makes the overburcened tax
payer look in any direction for rellef,
and the situation is one calculated 10
turn the waverers into the tariff re-
form camp.
Tence the American tariff bill and
it's fate in congress will be watched
with keen interest to ascertain whether
there is any slackening in the belief
in America in the virtues of pro-
tectionist system.
The American correspondents of the
English newspapers refuse to believe
the senate will sanction any really eff
fective reduction in duties.
They point out that there have been
four revisions of the tariff since the
civil war, but none has resulted in
materially reducing taxes.
The most interesting points of the bill
for the British public are the proposed
application of an extra duty on tea
which will severely affect the British,
and the patent clause, winch is re-
garded as a retaliation for the act
promulgated by David Lloyd George.
The reduction of steel duties is ex-
pected to benefit the British trade.
There is much interest, also, in the free
admission of works of art, which is
calculated to act as a further incentive
to American collectors In denuding
Europe of its treasures.
On the whole, however, the bill is re-
IN cicf
trade and is likely to help the protec-
ZIONIST party here in it's campaign,
which is growing more and more prom
inent.
