Taken Horse and Rig Under False! Pretences--It Was His First Time in- Police Trouble--Must Pay Costs of Case. Frederick Hayward, the young man, who was arrested on a charge of at- tempting to sell a horse and rig, at Napanee, which he had rented from the livery of Andrew Mellquham, in | this city, will be called upon to pay all the costs in the ease, amounting | to $19, otherwise he will be compelled | to go to jail for a month. i his was the decision given in the case by Magistrate Farrell, on Friday | morning. After the evidence had been | taken, the magistrate said that it was | quite clear to him that Hayward had | taken the horse and rig under false | pretences. However, as there was no |{ previous record against the accused, | this beiug the first time he was ever | placed under arrest, he would give him | a chance to do better, and the -ma- gistrate expressed the hope that he would twin over a new leaf. Albert Knox, who is employed Mellqubam's livery, stated that ward had been at the livery, asking | for a horse and rig, and that he had | refused to let him have a horse. Wit- | | telephone eall, some time later, from | 4 man, who claimed to be a commer- | cial traveller, from the Randolph hotel. The man said that he wanted a quict horse, as | he was going to drive around the city to do some business at 'the stores. Clifford Bell, a boy, said thal he took the rig to the hotel. He tied the | horse to a post and just after doing | so, Hayward appeared on the scene, stated that he was the traveller who had asked for the rig, jumped into the | vehicle, and drove off. | Andrew Méllquham told how he got] track of his outfit, through Chief Gra- | ham, at Napanee, hotifying the local | foree. { Hayward went into the box. He ad-| mitted renting the horse, but stated that he never mentioned to any per: son in Napanee about wanting to sell | the horse and buggy. He had no in. tention of making a sale, and only conversation he had about aj sale al Napanee was with a barten- der, who had told him that he wanted to buy a horse and rig, and who ask- | od hit about how much he thought Mr. Mcliggham would want for the outfit he had. The accused told the bartender that he had no idea how much money would be asked, but he thought it could be secured for about $125 or $150. 'Hayward denied the statement made that he posed as a commercial travel: ler, but admitted having told the man at the livery: that he was going to drive around the city. | THE SPORT REVIEW. | i Notes on Baseball, Lacrosse and Other Field Games.

Lumsden Had Powers to Deal With His Staff But Did Not Interfere Chief Engineer Grant's Estimate of Cost, : Ottawa, April 29.--The report of the Lums ln investigating committee re j specting sharges of over classification } on the Transcontinental railway was presented to the house on Thursday, it reviews at length the terms of re | ference antl the aliegations in Mr. | Lumsden's letter and states that the real difference was as to classification | of "peculiar geological formations" on districts B antl F. References is mule | to the opinions of Messrs. Nesbitt, Lafleur, Shepley, Ritchie, Beaudin and MucMaster," K.€.%, in opposition to Mr. Lumsden's interpretation of speci fications. They held that "rock in | masses' meant rock cemented togeth- ler and best removed by blasting. {" The report goes on to say that Mr. Lumsden recomended the engineers and certifial to' their classifications aml that 'he had full control over { thoss in which he lost confitlence ae | cording to his statement. Though hav- ing such power, the report says {never comiplained to the commission {about anv of his stafi. The committee {finde there was ground for difference { of opinion in classifications when the {blue print of Mr. Lumsden contained ! no d'mensions, and in view of the dif- ference between Mr. Lumsden himself and who was speaking go k " where she wil teach school for | and the counsel. There is no evidence, they say. of excessive overbreak being | returned, while no charge was made Lumsden ro frozen material being returned as loose rock. Regarding percentages in classifica- {tion the committee say the evidence | chows actual measurements have in all ¢ases been made of total guanti- | ties of material moved. In certain cuts | however, massed material was so ir {regular that acgurate measurement wie impossible and percentage meas- { urements authoriged by Mr. Lumsden {were resorted to. Mr. Lumsden is quoted as saying that the difference with his engineer was a matter of opinion. He male no | imputation of bad faith. The report in comeclugion expresses regret that My. Lumsden did not visit the work more frequently. Had he done so, they . disputes sid have heen quickly usted. When such disputes arose he shoul have vecommended dismis- sal of any engineers not conforming to his instructions. Regarding the cost of the lime, the evidence of Chief Engineer Grant is | quoted as saying that there will be {no great difference between it and Mr, Iamsden's ostimate of $114,000,000, HERE TO INVESTIGATE. i Inspector Haines Seeks Information About Ex-Convict, Immigration Inspector Haines, of Cape Vincent, N.Y., was in the .aity, to-day, seeking information regarding the ex-convict, "Raldy'" Wilson, who went over on the steamer Pigxrepont some weeks ago from Kingston and entered the United States. Mr. Haines says' he cannot remember one \aniwer- ing the description of "Baldy" get- ting by him without being question ed. He has a recollection of asking a tall man a few questions at the time, but that party was not in the uniform of a guard. The inspector has instruc tions from Washington to make an investigation and report, As the pris- oner was o free man at the time, it may_ be difficult the peni- tentiary with his going across the line. The fact that was accom- panied by a guard may, however, enuse a further investigation, as that {circumstance makes it look as i the {ex-conviet was being deported without | the necessary authority. Tt is learned from the penitentiary that Wilson wanted to get back ' to the States, | and that a guard was simply sent} along with him to see that he reac h- | od his destination. He did not come within the meaning of the act respect ing deportation from penitentiaries. to connect he ARMY WORK IN KINGSTON. Progress in Every Line With the I wocal Corps.
