At the trial in District court Estes produced a marriage lioense and litimatcd a desire to marry the girl, but Judge McDonough wouldnt allow It and gave Estes and Clarke, his accomplice, a well deserved raking over the coals. Both were given jail sentences end both appealed. Yesterday Estes and Clarke were balled out of Jail.

The Connelly been put on probation for stubbornness, was hack living with her uncle and aunt on Washington street. Her aunt said aha had relinquished tile idea of marrying Ketes, who is old enough for her grandfather. The aunt says the girl had even gone so far ns to throw In the fire her wedding ring presented by Estes in Providence a week before. Yesterday ofternoon' st about 5:30 Agne. cas the story goes, was feeling faint and ill.

Her aunt assisted her info the yard. She-got the air and returned. Just then a messenger boy culled with a message for Agnes Connelly.

He had stood and seen that the girl was there, and if was suspected that he had the messenger call in tha hope of getting eight of the- girl.

Agnes was harried within. Mr. and Mrs. Connelly investigated outside. Jhis was the second visit of Clarke to their house.

The committee on finance held a meeting last night. There were only three member present, the Mayor, Alderman Brown and Councilman Almy. The meeting was for the pyrpoae of looking orer the financial condition of the vanon de-partmanta md making provisions for the wiping out of certain deficits, especially in the highway department, the Board of Health and the poof department. What the committee did cannot be communicated to the pnbile for th reason that the three members present at the meeting are practically sworn to secrecy and will reveal nothing. It probably aeema to them that the public is not interested in the matter.

At any rate, disposition were made to II up som of the gaps in various departments and it is reported on good authority that the committee voted to recommend another loan for highway purposes'. How-large this losn will be Is not atated. Mayor Abbott did not come to hie office today and could not be interviewed on the subject. It appears that, through the paying off of some loans recently, the borrowing capacity of the city at the present lime -allow of a certain sum to be bnr-lowed before the end of the yesr and that the present adminstrntion will avail itself of this opportunity of reducing the deficit and going out with as clean a balance sheet as possible.

Carnegie may be asked to make his 110,900,000 donation for the higher education Id money Instead of In steel trust" bonds, in 'order to make it more acceptable to Congress Objections have been raised to the character of the gift, which are apparently delaying the presentation of the matter to Congress by President Roosevelt.

Had it been offered in the shape pf money there would have been no objection, except on the part of some who felt a general doubt of tho advisability of the government undertaking such a trust aa is proposed by Mr. Carnegie. But when it became kuown among senators aud representatives last week that Mr. Carnegie had offered United States Steel corporation bonds In this case, as in his library gifts to New York, aud in other instances, various objections were raised, which it Is now proposed to satisfy, If possible, before the matter i submitted to Coegress. One objctloe was that the government ought Hot to hold, even in trust, the securities of such a corporation, because they might seriously decline in value, and the government might have to step in, as ft did lu the esse of the Smithson bequest after It had been lost in bad Investment, and maintain the Institution, Indefinitely out of the treasury.

Another waithat in this particular instance, the United States might be placed in the embarrassing position of holding bonds of a corporation which the attorney general might have to prosecute, and still another that the strong popular feeling against the steel trust made it inadvisable to commit the administration and the majority of Congress and the party in pswer in Congress fio what might prove to he a very unpopular course. It was suggested that Congress mght accept the bonds with the understnud-inf that they should be sold, but this, it was thought, would not obviate the political objection.
