September 2, 1998



















     Per Curiam.  Upon careful review of the briefs and record, we

conclude that the district court properly dismissed the complaint.

We reach this conclusion essentially for the reasons stated in the

district court's orders dated March 31, 1997, and March 11, 1998.

     Affirmed.  See 1st Cir. Loc. R. 27.1.
