the signature of the former Sultan. au-
thentcated by the special seal adopted
by him when the deposit was made. At
that time Abdul Hamid entered into
stricr compact with the officers of
the bank under which no withdrawal
from this account was to be permitted
except upon the authority of the spe-
clal seal. The Turkish government was
not aware of this deposit until recent
ly when a letter sent by the bank to
Abdul and referring to the account

CHANGE OF LOCATION.
Railroad Commissioners Hear Petition
Of the l., A. E. w.

Parker Spofford, Bucksport; Joseph
B. Peaks, Dover, and Frank Keller of
Biddeford. State railroad commission
ers were in this city Tuesday morning
to listen to a petition of the Lewiston,
Augusta & Waterville Street Railway
for a change of location. The hearing
was short one. After the commits
sioners and representatives of the
petitioners visited the scene OF the To-
cation for the new bridge a hearing
was held in the council rooms at the
City building.
Originally the railroad commission
ers granted to this corporation loca-
ton to build bridge on the north side
of the Ticonic foot bridge, but the
railway company having been granted
by the selectmen of Winslow fran
chise to run over the highway on the
south side. built their bridge.
The trouble then arose over the f.
w. Allen store, which the selectmen
claimed was in the highway. The
matter was taken before the county
commissioners and the decision Of the
selectmen was upheld, that according
to measurements taken from the
original monuments, the building was
2712 feet in the highway.
Hon. Herbert NJ. Heath of Augusta,
representing the petitioners. in pre-
senting the petition, stated that the
railroad company was anxious to have
decree as quickly as possible, as
they desired to have cars across the
bridge by the time the Waterville
Merchants Association was to have
the big celebration. A temporary To-
cation has been granted in order that
the gravel cars may run onto the
bridge with the interior filling.
The hearing was attended by a few
| interested men from Winslow Attor-
| ney General w. c. Philbrook repre-
| scented the town officials John A.
Jones of Lewiston, who will soon sue
| coed Hon. Parker Spofford on the
| Board of Commissioners, was also at
the meeting.
1t lis expected that the commission
ers will render their decision today.
| The store of f. w. Allen at the
| Winslow end of the bridge was closed
Tuesday morning by order OF the Of
ficers and the outcome is awaited with
a great deal of interest by the citizens
of both municipalities.
