BlDDEFORD AND BANGOR
institutions Before the Committee on
Appropriations Wednesday.

The appropriation committee had an
easy day Wednesday. The Weber Hos
ntal of Biddeford which asks for 5000
year for each year and $l5,o10 for con-
struCtion for each year was represented
before the committee and had its case
adequately presented The men who APP
peared for this hospital were e. L. Blake
of Biddeford, Edwin Stone and Repre-
sentative Goodwin of Biddcford. The
plea was made that although York county
is the oldest county in the state it has
absolutely no state institution of any
kind
Charles II. Bartlett appeared in behalf
of resolve Of $500 for each year in aid
of the Bangor Children's Home. He said
that this institution was established in
1896 and had been receiving state aid for
40 years. 1t cares for about IS children
of whom over one-third do not live in
Bangor. The trustees of the institution
wish to enlarge the accommodations OF
the building SO as to care for more chill
dren.

agreed upon that amendment. as we'll as
to put the Judge on salary and let him
pay his own expenses. 1t developed that
they desired to pay the Judge the whole
of the $500 proposed for the judge and
recorder. and let the Judge pay the tray
cling expenses and for the services of the
recorder when one acted. The bill pro-
vided that the territory of each court
town should comprise that town ana
others nearer To ii than to either of the
other court towns, so that 1t would be
impossible to use the court machinery
for dragging a person TO remote parts
OF the county to answer suits brought

veloped that there are three candidates
for the position of judge and that the
lawyers are dissatisfied with the present
Dover municipal court. County Attorney
l.. q. G. Brown of Milo complained be-
cause the list of appeals from the Dover
municipal court was not put in his hands
till the day when he was to call those

and to have all fees and fines paid to the

Nobody opposed the bill, and it was
agreed that the members of the Piscata =

man and Augusta had had an expert
enec recently in trying to remove a
policeman. He objected to the life
tenure principle. An officer lacking in
tact might not be legally removable
for cause vet he might be running
the department into the ground.
There had been a conference after the
adjournment OF the hearing Tuesday
and some changes had been agreed
upon. He would prefer genuine talk

that Mr.. Goddard proposed to have his

Clark Power Co,

George H. Emery of Biddeford appeared
in favor of the proposition to charter
Clark Power Co. for the purpose of fur
nishng electricity in Buxton, Hollis and
Dayton. lie stated that Cecil +. Clark
and associates have power at Clark 5
Mills in Buxton which is the only power
available for that purpose. The Portland
Consolidated Light and Power Co. has
wires in the towns for transmission OF
electricity to Portland and Sanford but
not for local distribution of the fluid
There was no objection to the bill from
any source, but Representative William
son of the committee suggested a change
in wording, to which Mr.. Emery and Mr..
Clark readily agreed, for the purpose of
making il clear that the town officers are
the ones to determine the pole routes.
The right of eminent domain was desired
for possible needed ilowage rights if the
business grows
Judge Levi Turner Jr. of Cumberland
county superior court, advocated the bill
for the uniform system of negotiable in
struments. He talked at considerable
length Of the needless confusion from
differences in the laws, and quoted many
instances. If he should swap real estate
with a man in California the two deeds
must be different and differently word

acknowledged, and that was only one in

such as occurred in The maj hour Oh
yesterday.
News of the day afforded little leverage
on which TO hinge operations The only
important Developments were the MONTH
ly figures of the copper produces and
announcement of the purchase OF iilf ee
block of Atchison convertible bonds by
syndicate representing American. Eng
fish and Continental banking interests.
Not only did copper stocks increase enof-
mously during the month of January, but
consumption at home and abroad was
much below that of any recent month.
Exports for January declined almost 80, =
O0o,Ooo pounds. The importanc" OF the
sale OF the Atchison bonds seems to lie
more in its foreign participation than in
the sale itself. The amount of bonds ac-
ouiryd was not disclosed, but the fact
that French and German bankers are
said to be participants i'll tn" purchase
was accepted as evidence that the Eu-
ropean demand for American securities
of the better class has not yet subsidized.
Apart from the announcement that Il
large order for steel rails had been placed
with one of the subsidiary companies of
the United states Steel Corporation
there were no new developments in that
industry. Near Improvement In Condl-
tons in the steel trade is suggested,
however. by reports of building expen-
diturcs in january iii the larger cities of

LIVELY BUSINESS
NOW IN Steel

The buying of finished steel has con-
tinued on scale that has broken the
tradition of quiet market at the and
of the year and has tended to estab-
lishe the higher prices recently asked,
particularly for bars. plates and struc-
tural steel
Mill resumption on Dec. % were
general and operations have increased
this week at a number of plants in
stead of waiting until after New Years
Day says the Iron Age. The Steel
Corporation is putting two Ohio FUR
naces at Youngstown in blast and one
at Newcastle, Pa, and all furnaces of
those groups are now active. Heavy
orders have come to the steel manu-
facturers this week and leading inter-
ests are not far committed for the
first four months of 1912 that the cues
tion has arisen whether the railroads
will find open space for such rolling
as some of the trunk lines have re-
CURED here before for spring delivery"
The Iron Age Review thinks 'busi-
ness transacted during the holiday sea :
son never furnishes a safe basis for
predicting the degree of prosperity
which will prevail later in the year. but
the short vacations given employees of
! mills indicates the pressure for filling
orders already placed. This year. nearly
all mills in the central west resumed
delivery following Christmas. but iron
mills are operating very irregularly."
