morning.The baccarat counters were passed over to the jury for inspection.Mrs.Lyeett Green was again called to the witness box ami the cross-examination of the lady, which was yesterday interrupted by adjournment, was resumed by Sir Edward Clarke.The witness, who was fully as self-possessed as she had shown herself to be during the ordeal of yesterday, was, in cross-examination, taken over the old ground of the aiTangement of the table,\u2022 the disposition about it of t]ie guests and the discovery of the cheating by Sir William Gordon Cum-ming.In the midst of this work of repetition, Sir Edward abruptly turned upon the witness with the question, \u201cAre you acquainted with, or do you know of a man named Bowles?\u201d Witness replied very po sitively in the negative and was then allowed to step out of tho box.Tho defense then called Mrs.Arthur Wilson, the Tranby Croft hostess, and a party-defendant to the suit.Sir Charles Russell bowed courteously to the lady as she entered the witness box and at once proceeded with her examination.Witness testified that she distinctly recollected having observed her son looking at her with a puzzled expression from time to time during the progress of the gafnc of baccarat on the night of September 8.Later, her son informed her that he had seen the plaintiff, Sir William Gordon Cunimtng, cheat at play.Then there came a tedious threshing ovèf of the testimony of previous witnesses.)frs.Wilson agreed on all material points with the circumstances and details of the play ns it has over amt over again been related.When her son informed her of the detection by him of Sir William\u2019s dishonest play, witness said to him, \u201cYou must not mention It ; we must not have a scandal in our house.\u201d Passing on to the events of the second evening of play, September 9, witness swore that she had on that occasion noticed nothing strange until she had received a note from Mr.Lycctt Green, who had left the room.The note declared that the writer had seen plaintiff cheat and that he could not remain in the room and that something should be done to stop the game.Witness recollected henring plaintiff asking the hanker, the Prince of Wales, to pay him £30 for a counter which he claimed had been overlooked.Witness also remembered hearing the Prince say on that occasion that ho wished people would place their stakes where they could be scon.The Prince had spoken in the tone of a man who was seriously annoyed.Once subsequently witness had seen the plaintiff push a £10 counter over the chalk linesoopenlythatshewomleredthal none of the others appeared to have observed the action.Witness was then turned over to the prosecution for cross-examination, the representatives of which emulated the courtesy of Sir Charles in their manner of receiving the lady.Replying to the firsi question of counsel in cross-examination, witness declared that she did not sign a paper pledging secrecy as to tho baccarat discoveries.She, however, admitted that the Prince of Wales had appealed to her to say nothing of the matter.On the night of the 8th of September the Prince asked her to have a proper baccarat table prepared for use on the following evening.This had occurred before witness knew anything of the alleged cheating.Being pressed, witness said that the table had not been re-arranged particularly on account of Sir Wm.Gordon Cumming, but because it was hoped that its re Arrangement might prevent a recurrence of disagreeable things.At this point, counsel for pluintiffbegan pushing the cross-examination sharply and vigorously.In reply to a (jucstion by Sir Edward Clarke, witness said that her husband had objected to baccarat being played in his house, only because he feared that play might become too high among hot-headed youths who were sometimes in their company.When asked why she had not told the Prince that her husband objected to Imccarat lieing played there, she replied, \u201cI did not do so because we were such a staid, non-gambling party, that I did not think much harm could come from the little play indulged in.\u201d Witness kept her self possession fairly well throughout this part of the examination, hut was visibly annoyed at the loud titter that greeted her quaint reason for disobeying her husband\u2019s injunctions.In response to other questions by plaintiff's counsel, w itness was forced to admit that she hud sat at play on the second night, September Olh, with a guest whom she had heard solemnly denounced as a cheat.Here counsel plied her with question after question, a course that somewhat confused her.At last she was asked point blank, \u201cWhy did you, in your own house and where it was your duty to protect your guests, sit at play with a man whom you had heard called a common cheat ?\u201d To the utter amazement of everyone present, witness replied, \u201cI had put it out of my mind ; I had a lot of other mattets to think about.\u201d To say that this episode created a sensation is to put it mildly indeed.Asked whether she had seen Sir William cheat, witness\treplied, \u201cYes, unfortunately without\ta doubt.\u201d This concluded the cross-examinatiou of Mrs.\\\\ ilson.After tho cross-examination of Mrs.Wilson had been finished, the defense called Lord Coventry who, with Gen.Williams, drew up the incriminating document which was signed by the plaintiff.Witness stated that when, on the evening of September 10, Mr.Lyeett Green made the communication to him which was afterwards repeated in the presence of Gen.Williams and Mr.Arthur Stanley Wilson, he had felt as these gentlemen had subsequently felt, that the Prince of Wales having long honored the plaintiff with his friendship, they could not allow the Prince to continue that friendship without putting him in possession of what they knew of Sir William\u2019s conduct during the games of the 8th and 9th of September.Continuing, witness related the circumstances of the notorious interview with Sir William.When witness told plaintiff of the nature of the accusation against him, the latter denounced it as \u201cfalse\u201d and asserted that it was merely the statement of a parcel of inexperienced boys who were unentitled to belief, subsequently the plaintiff had seen the Prince of Wales in company with the witness and Gen.Williams and had declared his innocence.To the declaration of Sir William, the Prince simply responded, \u201cThere are five against you.\u201d Witness had himself told Sir William that Mr.Lyeett Green wished to confront him, yet the plaintiff had failed to express a desire to meet this accuser.Witness then said that when Gen.Williams and himself submitted ttie paper for the plaintiff to sign, the latter had said, \u201cThat is tantamount to an admission of guilt.I won\u2019t sign.\u201d To this witness ami Gen.Williams replied, \u201cThat's so.\u201d There was nothing in the actions of Sir William ou the occasion in question to suggest that ho had lost his head.After the brief conversation related above, witness and Gen.Williams, as friends of the plaintiff, advised him to sign the document which they had submitted to him.Plaintiff thereupon signed it and further stipulated to depart from the Tranby Croft resilience early on the morning of the following day.The document was signed by Sir William under the circumstances related and was later forwarded to the Prince of Wales.The note hook of the witness was then produced and Sir Charles proceeded to read therefrom.It was found that Lord Coventry\u2019s diary of events at Tranby Croft agreed in every material respect with his testimony as given in Court.The memorandum sot forth that the writer had heen induced to follow the course he had, hy a desire to avoid a scandal and keep the Prince of Wnh s out a disagreeable affair.The writer believed he had done his duty as well as the circumstances of the case permitted, by insisting that the accused man should nevir play again.When Sir Charles I ad finished reading from Lord Covent'y\u2019s diary, witness turned toward cou» tel fur the prosecution to meet his cross-examination.It was then elicited from him tl.at w hen lie had parted with sir William Gordon Cumimng.nc had done so in the belief E pi tin both in the army and in the clubs to which he belonged.liera the defense rested its cast ahd Sir Charles Russell rose to address tho Court.He referred sutlrlcAlly to the altered tone of the protfecfitlon since it had become familiar with the damning evidence .\t.èyM mistaken as to the infafnont chargé liefe brought against Sir William.That Was, however, a thing impossible.At the cont'lG sion of Sir Charles Russell\u2019s speech, the Court adjourned until Monday.In the baccarat case to-day, Lord Coventry Kreduced a copy of the docaincnt signed y Gumming in which the lattei4 agreed to play cards no more provided the other geff tlemen whose names are subscribed preserved silence as to his conduct at baccarat.The list of other gentlemen is headed \u201cAlbert Edward.\u201d The baccarat revelations have stiired to its deepest depths 'he whole religious world.The Welsh Mcthcrlprt, Conference has condemned the Prince of tVaies for indulging in the baccarat, and éhé léading Baptist organ compares the Prince\u2019s tastcS for the race course and gambling with the noble example of his father, who, if living, would share the intense grief of thousands of Englishmen.The news that the Prince is a habitual gambler, taking supplies of cards and counters wherever he goes, has blasted every chance of the nation's granting him relief tor his debt*.Tilt DAME Ot BACCARAT.No lottery of chance was ever talked about as much as Imccarat.It is fascinating to a degreeJwyoud ordinary comprehension.Probably no game of cards so aljsolntely simple, in its details and free from complications was ever so popular.In brief, one member of a party elects to be banker.He deals the cards to only two players from a box similar to a cigar box after they have been shuffled.The point is to get nine or eighteen spots in order to win.Two cards must be dealt to each player before the dealer serves himself.To get tnoro than eighteen spots is fatal, and he who first counts nine or eighteen takes the money wageted.- If, however, a player fails to get the desifed number the banker draws a card alternately with the two players, and if nine or cighteèn is h6t thade before stopping and the banker ties thè player the latter loses, The players stake their money separately.In fact, at one deal there a^e two games itf progress and the spectators thay wage their money on either, all of which must be accepted by the banker.The great difficulty to an ordinarily prudent baccarat player is to know when to leave off ; even the strongest-minded can scarcely trust their judgment in this respect, so it may be readily imagined what sort of chance any vacillating player has of being successful at the game.There are certain matters in connection with the Tranby Croft baccarat affair that are worth considering, for although heaps of articles have been printed most of them may be put down as rubbish.Sir William is alleged to have resorted to a form of cheating known as the 44 pousette \u201d\u2014that is, adding to the stake when the banker has lost and decreasing it when he has won.Now, had the table been better conducted it would have been impossible .for this to have occurred.As every player at l accaial knows, prior to the banker making a start, he slates the amount in the bank\u2014let ns put it, for example, at £50.Anyone sitting down at the table has the right to call the whole of the bank, selecting the left or the right on which to pick up the cards.If the bank is uot called then the banker proceeds to deal to £25 a side, or as much of it as may be \u201cmarked\u201d or called\u2014the former meaning that the money is placed on the table ; the latter, that the bank has accepted the bet, withont the money being staked, but this is quite the exception, the ready coin being in-> variably planked.Now, previous to the banker dealing the cards, it is the duty of two croupiers, one on the right and the other on the left, to count up the stakes deposited on cither side and then make up the bank.Thus the hanker knows to the smaller coin the amount of his liabilities.Had the game been properly played at Tranby Croft no one attempting the \u201cpousette\u201d would have stood an earthly chance of either increasing or decreasing his stake.\t* Mr.Win.Henry Smith, in the House of Commons yesterday, answering a question in regard to the reported wholesale immigration of Russian Hebrews into England, said that the Government had made enquiries into the subject ami those enquiries were still progressing.The British Consul at Riga had been instructed to make a report in this connection to the Foreign Office.The Government could uot believe that it was possible that there was such an abuse of the privilege of aliens as announced in lha Moscow Ttcrfo-nwsti.This announcement was to the effect that the Jewsih Emigration Society had engaged four Baltic steamships for the exclusive purpose of carrying Jews to London.This Society was also said to bo arranging for the emigration of 60,000 persons, chiefly Polish Lithurian Jews, to England.Many of the domestics at Windsor Castle are suffering from inthicnza.Prof.Geffcken lectured at the German Exhibition last evening on Russian linances.He gave a startling array of statistics showing the bankrupt condition of the Russian agricultural classes, the stagnation existing in the industry and the overwhelming indebtedness of the State.The Russian Budget of 1890, he said, amounted to £111,000,-000, of which the public debt absorbed £33,-000,000 and debentures £32,000.000, an enormous burden on a country where 92 per cent, of the population are poor.Of £130,-000,000 of inconvertible paper money, only £26,000,000 was covered\u2019 by a metallic reserve.He warned investors that the failure of the last loan wax the bursting of the bubble, and declared that Russia must reform her corrupt administration and preposterous fiscal policy and abandon an aggressive foreign policy.R.C.Duncan, of Washington, D.O., who is charged with attempt lug to murder his wife in North Wales, was to-day committed for trial.The bill providing for the issue of an Order-in Conncil prohibiting the taking of seals in Behring Sea by British subjects, was Sassed.Mr.Thomas Sexton, M.P.for West ;elfast, called the attention of the House to the attitude of the Irish members in connection with the bill, and expressed the hope that the Goverument would appreciate their forbearance in offering no opposition to it, thus allow'in^ the Government to pass the bill on its third reading without delay.Constantinople, June 5- Herrlsratcl, the Berlin banker, who, with other passengers, was recently ou a railway train between this city and Àdrianople aud who was sent to this city to secure a ransom of $40,000, has, by order of the brigands, deposited the ransom with the Austrian Consul at Kirk-Kile-sia.The brigands have refused to treat any further for the release of the prisoners unless the troops cease to menace communications between the brigands and the friends of the prisoners.AMERICAN.Boston, June 5\u2014This morning 30 prominent students of Harvard College, members of the Alpha Della I\u2019hi Club, whose rooms were milled by the police this week ami large seizures of liquor made, were lined $65 each in Cambridge Court.San Francisco, June 5\u2014-The schooner \u201cC.F.Hill\u201d has arrived here fiom Kodiak, Alaska.She firings news that the grippe is creating great havoc among the natives.Hundred» have died.There arc no doctors on the Island and no medical stores.The natives are also suffering hardships on account of the poor catch of sea otters, on which they depend for a living.Holloway's Pills.\u2014Sores, Wounds, Ulcerations, and other disease» affecting the ekin, are capable of speedy amendment by this cooling and healing ointment, which has called forth the loudest praise from persons who had suffered Lr years from bad legs, bad breasts, piles, abscesses, and chronic ulcers.None but those who have exjierieuced the soothing effect of it can form an idea of the comfort it bestows by restraining inflammation and allaying pain.Whenever Holloway\u2019s Ointment has been once used it has established its own worth, and again Ixcen eagerly sought for as the easiest and Refest remedy for all such complaints.In neuralgia, rheumatism and gout, the same application, properly used, gives wonderful relief.June

be made.The Court of Queeu\u2019s Bench to-day issued a warrant for the arrest of Géorgie Wilson, who is charged with tampering with one of the principal witnesses in the case of Bob Kceley, accused of robbery.The famous case of Brother Bidegarengainst the Oblat Order was commenced in the Superior Court to-day.The plaintiff', after twenty years\u2019 connection with the Order, and after taking

Owens, 13 years of age, a son of J.Owens, while engaged in carting gravel off the top of the pit, lost control of his horse which backed up, the boy becoming entangled in the reins.Before the hofoe could be brought to a standstill or the terrified boy extricated, the cart and horse slid into the pit, dragging the boy down with them and were dashed to pieces at the bottom, 170 feet below.An inquest will be held hy Coroner Woodward this afternoon/ ONTARIO.Ottawa, June 5\u2014The shipment of deals from Ottawa to England is far greater this year than it has been for any previous year.As fast as possible boats arc being loaded and deals taken to Montreal, where they are shipped for Liverpool.In lumber circles it is stated that all the stock deals ir.England arc sold and that green deals, fresh from the saw, will be shipped by the cud of next month.Ocean freights for deals are very low this year.A serious accident occurred a few days ago at Chapleau, by which a young man named John Flynn had one of his legs cut off through being run over by the train.Flynn is an English youth from Cardinal Manning\u2019s asylum in London and has been employed for some time with Mr.Foley, of Ramsay, who had the sufferer sent to the Maltawa Hospital, where he is now under treatment.Some time since, it will l>e remembered, an accident occurred to the Winnipeg express on the 0.P.R- at Straight Lake, at which time several cars were burned, the mail car among them.It has transpired that in tho burnt mail hags was the sum of $20,000, which had been mailed from two banks, both holding offices in this city, to Winnipeg, by order of customers.One package of $10,000 has been entirely destroyed, but there are sufficient portions of some of the second bundle to enable the bank to recover several thousand dollars.Who the actual losers will be is not known, but it is likely to fallen the banks shipping the amount.Ridgeway, J une 5\u2014The Bertie Natural Gas Company (Limited),

Islands.American \u201cSlang.\u201d \u201cIt is curious to know what vulgarisms creep into the American language, even the language spoken by well-educated, not to say cultured, people.Just at present the ear is harrowed by a phrase, or rather a word, much used hy our belles who assist afternoon hostesses ut the function called a \u2022tea.\u2019 \u2018My dear,\u2019 says one girl to another, Tin invited to pour for Mrs.Commonwealth next Wednesday.\u2019 \u2018Oh, are you?Well, she asked me to turn, but I had another engagement.\u2019 Heavens aud earth, I thought, what is the meaning of \u2018pour\u2019 and \u2018turn ?\u2019 It was some time before the verbs and their implied noun made a connection in my brain, and then the desire to stand these young women in a corner was so intense I retired to avoid a demonstration.Tho century has, indeed, grow n old and lazy w here the tongue finds so small a word as \u2018lea\u2019 difficult of utterance.To pour tea is about as simple a phrase as can be spoken, and to drop the final word tea is to render it intolerably vulgar.The custom at large afternoon receptions here of having two good-looking \"iris perform the service,

Father Point viewed in its bearings and relations, with the advantages arising therefrom.A Rare Treat For Smokers.The new brand of cigars \u201cLaval,\u201d manufactured by S.Davis &Song, Montreal, w ill he found exceptionally fine in quality and remarkable value at the price, live cents, tf.( To the Editor of the AIor nine/ Chronicle.) Sir,\u2014Among the different questions which fall to the lot of a journalist to advocate from time to time, we have always sought to rightly discriminate between questions of purely personal or local resort, in which the individual claims of a class or community are concerned, ami those, on the other hand, of a wider range, that is, of general interest.Prominent among the latter is undoubtedly the question of a wharf at Father Point, it being rightly considered the converging point for all outgoing and incoming steamers on account of its proximity to the south shore channel aud its deep waters, which allow vessels to run to within a distance of lew than a quarter of a mile from the shore.Father Point is well known to all our trans-Atlantic steamers as the place where they invariably call on the run up or down the St.Lawrence River, either to embark or land their pilots, and up to last spring, mails and passengers as well, although the latter ar-v rangement was carried out under certain disadvantages, owing to the absence of a wharf at Father Point, which necessitated the transfer of both mails and passengers to a small steamer subsidised for that purpose, and thence to the Riraouski wharf, some distance further up, while the landing of either mails or passengers could have been effected directly at Father Point, at any time or in any weather, and at far less inconvenience ana expense, if there had been a wharf at the Point, where in reality it should have been originally instead of at Rimouski, if due consideration had only been paid at the time to its proper/and suitable location.The absurdity of building a wharf in shallow waters, three miles distant from the only landing place accessible to ocean steamers, will be apparent to any ordinary observer, aud its utter unusefulness will still be more palpable now that the transfer of mails and passengers has been discontinued.For our part, we never could see of what service or advantage that wharf at Rimouski could be to ocean steamers carrying mails and passengers when such steamers had unavoidably to call at Father Point within easy access of the shore, and every possible facility for landing both mails and passengers, without any hindrance or loss of time whatsoever, if there had only been a wharf at hand.And now that the landing of mails and passengers from abroad has either completely ceased or been temporarily discontinued, the usefulness of the Rimouski whaif has completely ceased, to all its original intents and purposes, and that both for tho Government that built it, and the projectors of the enterprise, while on the other hand, the calling of the steamers at Father Point still continues, and pilots are still embarked and disembarked at that place os heretofore, and under as great disadvantages as in former years.We observe that the matter is again seriously talked about, and earnestly taken up by the press, aud its urgency is obvious in view of the fact that the combined action of both pilots and commanders of ocean steamers who arc left to bear all the unpleasantness of the existing situation, arc alive to the necessity of having a wharf at Father Point in order to avoid the drawbacks experienced in having to land and embark the pilots, in open boats, and in occasional stresses of wcatlver that render the landing tedious and perilous in the extreme.We understand that a move is to be made by interested parties, represented by commanders of ocean steamers and others,* with a view to urge the matter before the Govern-meut, and request a solution of the perplexe^ question.In view of the importance of the question, and Mic ever recurring necessity of a wharf at Father Point, we advise agitating the question in the press backed up by a direct representation uf the case to the Government on the part of those on whose shoulders rest the disadvantages complained of, and wo have no doubt but the Government will rise to the importance of the question, and do it justice.\u201cPublic Opinion.\u201d Quebec, 4th June, 1891.Every room where poker is played is a sort of ante-chamber.1^6156 SEW ADVERTISEMENTS.T1TE MOUNT NAT CHRONICLE, SATURDAY, JUNTj ft, 1891,

the Military College Cadets and Miss M.Dunbar the Artillery.All the squads were marvels of precision and promptness in the drill and richly merited the applause bestowed upon them.The drill was opened by the various detachments marching on the stage together, each in turn advancing to the front of the stage, saluting and then retiring.The sailors went through the physical drill splendidly, accompanied by the \u201cB\u201d Battery band and taking the time from their commander, and when encored went through an Irish jig.The cavalry «quad did the sword exercise and pursuing practice both by word of command and judging their own time, with both the right and left hands, the whole appearance of the troopers being highly creditable.The manner in which the R.M.C.Cadets sent in tho thrusts of their bayonets was also a revelation to many pre-scut awl proved to them that a rifto Mith fixed bayonet was no tjssph^ble weapon in the hands of young ladies who I can use\tthem\tlike\tthose

cqu)cl bo desired And the coql-ness with which the young ladies handled the gun and fired it olF was truly remark-able, the dismounting of the gun and unlimbering of the carriage seemingly not occa-pying a moment.Showers of bouquets rained down upon the martial young girl* during the drill, and each captain carried away sorte floral trophy.The fancy marching by all the squads together, headed by \u201cB Battery Band, made a.very pretty scene and after marching and counter marching they dis persed.The Musical Ride by some of Üie men of tho Royal School of Cavalry was moat comical and set the whole h-mse roaring with laughter.This item formed a very pleasing finale to the evenings entertainment.The Minuet by lady and gentleiqan amateurs vas one of the most enjoyable features of the
