several large pieces of the famous mammoth Canadian cheese to the House of Commons, Senate and Press Gallery.The big cheese was cut up in England aud a'tiortion sent back to Canada, arriving a couple of days ago on the \u201cParisian.\u201d Though over two y*»n old, the cheese is of excellent quality.The reports that were sent from England to the effect that the whole cheese when out was found to be in a state of decay were untrue, only a couple of inches on the top were spoiled.The cause of this was that while at the World\u2019s Fair the top of the cheese was exposed to a temperature of 90 degrees, the building in which it stood having a glass roof.The cheese tastes fine.Toronto, May 18\u2014Something in the nature of a scandal threatens to be developed in connection with Alderman

\u201cLetters to Dead Authors\u201d have reached thons-sands of people who have never read his admirable translations from the Greek.Mr.Pater's essays\u2014which, however, are not light\u2014are far better known than his beanti-ful \u201cMarius the Epicurean.\u201d Lamb's \u201cElia\u201d is more widely read thau are his letters, though it would seem a heart-breaking matter to choose between them.Hazlitt\u2019s essays are still rich mines of pleasure, as well as tine correctives for much modern nonsense.The first series of Mr, Arnold's \u201cEssays in Criticism\u201d remains his most popular book, and the one which has done more than all the | rest to show the great half-educated public what is meant by distinction of mind.Indeed, there never was a day when byroads to culture were more diligently sought for than now by people disinclined for long travel or much toil, and the essay is the smoothest little path which runs in that direction.It offers no instruction, save through'' the medium of enjoyment, and one saunters \u2018lazily along with a charming unconsciousness of effort.Great results are not to be gained in this fashion, but it should sometimes be play-hour for us all.Moreover, there are still readers keenly alive to the pleasure which literary art can give ; and the essayists,, from Addison down to Mr.Arnold and Mr.Pater, have recognized the value of form, the powerful and persuative eloquence of style.Consequently, an appreciation of the essay is the natural result of reading it.Like virtue, it is its own reward.\u201cCulture,\u201d says Mr.Addington Symonds, \u201cmakes a man to be something.It does not teach him to create anything.\u201d Most of us in this busy world are far more interested in what we can learn to do then what we can hope to become ; but it may be that those who content themselves with strengthening their own faculties, and broadening their own sympathies for all that is finest and best, are of greater service to their tired and ddwncast neighbors than are the unwearied toilers who urge us so relentlessly to the field.\u2014Agnes Repplier, in June Lip-pincolt's.Distressing Questions for McBride.The recent strike in the Washington mill at Lawrence, Mass., closed very abruptly and curiously.It had continued for weeks, and the leader of the strikers, George McBride, was as defiant as ever in his declaration that they would bring the management to terms.But one day a sheet of paper was handed him containing these questions :\u2014 \u201cWho handles the funds of the strike?\u201cHow much have you drawn from the funds?\u201cHow long have you roomed at the Hotel Brunswick?\u201cDid your new suit come from the strike funds ?\u201cIs it true that you paid up three months\u2019 back rent since the strike began ?\u201cIs it true that your daily bill of fare at dinner includes broiled chicken ?\u201cIs it true that one day recently you spent seven dollars in treats in a saloon ?\u201cHow many strikes have you been engaged in previous to this ?\u201cIs it true that you only worked one-third of your time last year ?\u201cIs it true that you loafed two thirds of the time last year, while your wife worked tu the mill and you carried her dinners ?Before McBride had finished reading the questions his lordly manner had disappeared; he immediately began working for a settlement ; and within a week the men returned to work on their employers' terms\u2014New ^ ork Evening Post.MIDNIGHT REPORTS.LONDON \u201cTIMES\u201d ON CANADA.SIR CHARLES TUPPER AND PACIFIC CABLE.THE DISASTERS ON LAKE MICHIGAN.Absconded

Canadas High Commissioner in London, has promptly replied to the strictures of Sir John Pender, Chairman of the Eastern Telegraph Company, on the proposed Pacific cable, the subject being treated in a paper read by the former at a meeting of the Royal Colonial Institute.With regard to Sir John\u2019s protest against the proposed enterprise receiving any Government recognition, Sir Charles retorts that the evidence is conclusive that the existing Companies received snbst&nti&l State aid, and combats the statements regarding the lasting qualities of the cables by quoting Sir John himself, who stated not long ago that one of the existing cables was twenty y eats old Referring to Sir J ohn\u2019s repudiation of the charge of monopoly.Sir Charles 8notes Mr.Fleming\u2019s report to the Canadian \u2022overnment and further supports his contention by recalling the Colonial conference in London, in 1887, where the Hon.Cecil Raikes, Postmaster-General, in addressing the meeting, said it was impossible for the Government to recognize any x such monopoly as that which the Cable Company seemed to claim.Sir Charles is emphatic in his 3>inion that there will be no difficulty expe-enced in promoting the construction of the Pacifio-n&bie cn the lines suggested at the Wellington conference.Sir John Pender is at present in France, but Mr.Denison, Managing Director of the Eastern Telegraph Company, to whom Sir Charles Tuppers statements were submitted, said it unaoubt-edly was the intention to oppose to the uter-most any attempt to secure financial aid from the Imperial Government for the proposed Pacific cable.May 19\u2014The Times comments editorially this morning on the series of articles concerning Canada which it has published recently.The writer says :\u2014\u201cIt seems manifest that for large problems, op the successful solution of which the future of the British Empire will depend, there are very few which are not more or less directly illustrated of Canadian experience, and the probable solutions that Canada will find, whether for good or evil, will largely affect the organic structure of the Empire.It is certain that the influence of Canada on the international relations of Great Britain and the United States have tended morel than anything else to a peaceful settlement by the arbitration of questions which, under less favorable conditions, might have proved intractable to diplomacy.It is not, perhaps, altogether f&ncifnl to surmise the beneficent resalts achieved in this direction.Possibly they will be the germ of future developments almost too vast and far reaching for the present imagination of living men to conceive.What may be the future of Canada\u2019s relations to the United States on the one hand and to Great Britain on the other no man can yet say, but no one can doubt that the problem here propounded is big with the fate of untold generations.\u201d GERMANY.Berlin, May 18\u2014The International Congress of miners adjourned to-day in great disorder.Delegate Wilson, of England, who was presiding, insisted that the vote of delegates representing the largest number of miners ought to decide all questions.The German and French delegates protested agaiuet this ruling and accused the English deleg&tes of trying to override tfte Congress.Delegate Scbroeder, German, declared that the Congress would continue without the English delegates and the latter thereupon withdrew from the hall and the sitting adjourned.A despatch to the Lokalanzeiger from St.Petersburg, says that four bombs were found near the

absconded in company with the lawyer\u2019s wife, who has been living apart from her husband.It is understood that the couple have gone to New York.Schreiber also took* with him a bapk book belonging to his employer\u2019s mother, which he abstracted from the safe and upon which he drew 1,200 marks before starting.UNITED STATES Chicago, May 18\u2014Lake Michigan has not been lashed and churned for months as it was to-day by the fierce wind that has been sweeping down from the north for the past 36 hours.Late to-night it is believe that 12 or 15 lives have been lost along the shore off this city and its suburbs.The only other point reporting a loss of life is Milwaukee, where six of the schooner \u201cCummings\u201d crew were drowned this afternoon before they could be rescued by the life saving crew.Half a dozen schooners and smaller craft have foundered off this city during the day, a score or more are dismantled and stove in, making it almost useless for them to fight against the gale and huge waves that every few minutes swept over them, endangering the lives of those who are still on board.At least 30 vessels are anchored outside the harbor waiting for the storm to subside.All are more or less damaged and signs of distress continuously appearing among them from time to time during the day, have kept the life savers busy.Twenty-five or thirty men have been brought in, all exhausted and suffering immensely from exposure and cold.In several cases help has arrived too late and a corpse was found among the half conscious sailors.As the storm increased in violence daring the afternoon, the waves grew mountain high and dashed over the breakwater.Out in the harbor a dozen three-masted schooners, heavily laden with lumber, were riding at anchor.A few minutes after four o\u2019clock three of them were flying flags of distress.A few minutes later the three-masted schooner \u201cEvening Star,\u201d of this city, parted her chains and came for the shore like a rocket.She struck the heavy piling of tbe breakwater and her timbers crashed in as though they were egg shells.As the vessel struck six sailors aboard jumped for their lives.Five landed on a pile of scrap iron, but the sixtn, a Norwegian named Olsen, missed land by a couple of feet and was drowned.Hardly had this vessel struck when it was seen that another three-master had parted her ropes and was coming ashore.This was the \u201cJack Thompson,\u201d also lumber laden.She followed the path of the Star\u201d and came helm on the \u201cEvening Sur.\u201d The shock precipitated into the water the heavy timber upon which five members of the crew were standing.They were rescued from shore.Shortly after six o\u2019clock the two-master \u201cMurphy,\u201d lumber laden, came ashore within 50 yards of the \u201cThompson.\u201d She was driven up so close to land that the crew had little difficulty in jumping ashore.The waves swept the decks of all three vessels clean and within an hour the beach for a couple of miles was strewn with lumber.The \u201cEvening Star\u201d and the \u201cThompson\" are breaking up to-night.Shortly after six o\u2019clock a big three-master, the \u201cJohn Loomis McLaren,\u201d which had bceu riding at anchor about a mile out, parted her chains and commenced to come for shore at 29th street.Darkness was coming, but it was seen that nino men were clinging to the rigging.The boat was carried on the Highlands.She rebounded like a rubber ball, while another wave came sweeping over the rigging.In the meantime the life-saving crew, te-euforced by half a dozen of their men, had made ready their lines.The first rocket took effect and one by one the men\twere\tbrought ashore.\tWhen the\teighth\tman had been rescued it was discovered that the ninth member of the crew was missing and Peter Enright, and Matthew Paterson, of the life saving crew, volunteered to go to the vessel.They found the missing man pinned down in the fore castle by a pile of lumber, but just as they were about to extricate the body the vessel made a lurch and they were washed into the j water.Roues had been fastened around their t waists \u2019and2.tbeyiwere pulled ashore.Both were badly cat and bruised.At 9 o\u2019clock another of the lumber fleet, about two miles out, was seen throwing out distress rockets and was apparently coming ashore.About the same time the schooner \u2019Myrtle\u201d was seen drifting ashore near 29th street.Six half frozen men were clinging to the rigging.The life saving crew was busy a mile away aud could give no assistance.Nine officers with plenty of ropes were on shore, but having no rockets were unable to cast their lines and they could not help t|re doomed sailors.The Captain, whose name is Warner, w\u2019as the first to go.A huge wave swept him overboard and he was not seen again.The men then took refuge in the cabin on the main deck.The schooner had drifted to 34th street when her mainmast was carried away, taking with it, as it fell, one side of the cabin.Deprived of this shelter the remaining sailors were washed overboard, one by one, until but one was left.He took off his clothes during a lull in the storm and jumped overboard, striking out for shore.He had gone but few yards, however, when he was carried under by the waves and was not seen again.The schooner foundered 200 feet off 35th street.Forty lives were saved by the crews of tho life saving boats and tbe tugs of Chicago Companies during tbe day.At midnight the velocity of the wind was 45 to 50 miles an hour.The members of the varions life saving crews and also the officers of the police stations on the south side of the city are patrolling the beach.Milwaukee, May 18\u2014A terrific storm has prevailed here all day.A large numbev of vessels have come to grief and several lives have been lost.THE,GOAL FAMINE.GENERAL MANAGER SEAR-GRANTS VIEWS.COAL SHIPPERS ON THE QUESTION.Montreal, May 18\u2014For the first time in the history of the Grand Trunk Railway all its fires are out, all its hammers are idle, all its mechanical employees walk the streets.There have been temporary closing downs, reductions of wages have taken place and now and then strikes have produced temporary dislocations.But this silfcice in paint, in car, in mechanic, in locomotive shop, is a first and oppressive experience to the three thousand men or more who have been depending upon the Company for their livelihood.Over 1,200 men are thrown out of employment and the shops are all closed.There is not likely to be any change nntil the coal strike is settled.Coal shippers in Montreal are receiving numerous esquiries from Boston, New York and other American cities but up to thepreseut very little business ha» been done.There were 100 tons sent from here to Troy, N.Y., to-day, to a manufacturer who was content to pay the duty in-order to keep hit machinery rnnning.A large coal shipper said to-day that tbe-output of the Canadian mines conld at present be doubled, if necessary.He wished io distinctly understood that the Grand Trunk Company could get all the coal it wanted in Canada.They would be delighted to supply them.It was nst fair, he said, that an impression should go abroad that Canada was in any way mixed np in the closing down of the railway workshops.The mines were not working up to their capacity of last year.There was no fear of coal being dearer in Canada at present.One of tbe agents of the Dominion Coal Company said that both tbe Canadian Pacific Railway and Grand Trunk Railway were customers of the Company.The Canadian Pacific Railway bought more than the Grand Trunk, but tbe latter had been making enquiries later.The only difference the strike made to the Company was the fact that it had been receiving numeroift enquiries since it began.Another coal shipper said that if the strike continued in the States he would import soft coal from the Old Country.He said it was quite in the power of the Dominion Coal Company to divert all their coal to the United States if it so pleated, as it was purely an American Company.He had heard that the Company had received one order for 50,000 tons for New York.Up to the present ten steamers have arrived in port with coal for the Dominion Coal Company as compared with the same number last year.General Manager Searge&nt, of the Grand Trunk, when asked this afternoon the latest in the situation, said \u201cThe most interesting feature to us is as to how the Canadian railways will be able to keep the traffic going if the strike continnes any length of time.So far as the Grand Trunk is concerned, we have not been desirous of increasing our stocks of coal at the different points along the system, because of the uncertainty of the coal duty and in order to see whether the duties would not be abrogated by joint action on the part of the Canadian and United States Governments, but we had about an average stock on hand and we to a large extent have been drawing on it since the beginning of the strike.Pressure in the United States became so pronounced that we found it impossible to get our coal through from the mines, it being confiscated en route by the American roads over which it had to pass.Therefore the time had come to take steps to economize our remaining resources.These we have adopted with the result that we will be able probably to carry on our traffic operations for a month or* perhaps more.The general commercial public need be under no apprehension as to our ability to carry ou their operations, but we may want their assistance.It is simply a question of prudence in the face of & possible dire calamity.\u201d Co&l men here state that Canada is in no way responsible for the closing down of the Grand Trunk shops.They would like to supply all the coal required.The output of the mines is less than it was last year rad dealers here are just waiting for business.Hamilton, Ont., May 18.\u2014The Grand Trunk Railway bolt works and foundry here closed down this morning for an indefinite period.Mechanical Superintendent Domville says the railway company has only three weeks\u2019 supply of coal on hand, caused by the big strike of coal operatives in Pennsylvania.An order has been issued by the Grand Trunk Railway authorities that on and after Monday next no freight except such sa is of a perishable nature will be accepted for shipment.The announcement was received with consternation by Hamilton manufacturers, wholesale dealers and other big shippers.This will cause a big loss to many Hamilton concerns.The rolling mills and nail works will close to-moreow for a long time.The rolling mill people had plenty o?coal in transit, but it has been seized by railway companies in the United States.When Baby was eMt.w* gave her CostorkL When she was a Child, sho criod lor CasMViâ.When she became Miss, she chmg to CastoriR, When she had Children, sho gave Ui.cu CajIm .£> Early Smoking.Everyone has read that Hawkins introduced tobacco, and that James inveighed against it.Elizabeth liked to sit on a low stool and watch Sir Walter Raleigh puffing away.Once she bet him that he could not tell the weight of the smoke in his pipe, but the philosopher won.In Anne\u2019s reign almost everyone smoked.In Charles II.\u2019s reign \u201cchildren were sent to school with their pipes in their satchels, and the school master called a halt in their studies while they smoked.\u201d In 1702 Jorevin spent an evening with his brother at Garraway's coffee-house, Leeds, and writes : \u201cI was surprised to see his sickly child of three years old fill its pipe of tobacco and smoke it as audfarandly as a man of three score ; after that, a second and third pipe, without the least concern, as it is said to have done above a year ago.\u201d There were about 470 coffee-houses in London, besides five chocolate-houses, in Aune\u2019s time.Smoking was general in them, and intoxicants could be also obtained as well as coffee.Biehop Trelawney was much hurt because Bishop Barnett had accused him of Jetting drunk in one of them on the 30th of anuary\u2014 a day of grief to

debates over the tariff items are conducted with the object of making the politicians \u201csolid\u201d with their constituents.That is anotller sign.It will be well for the electors to be prepared, Ourown impression is that the day of election is not very far off.We hear that the vacancy in Quebec West, caused by the lamented death of Mr.Hearn, will be filled up at once.When the House is sitting, vacancies seldom last more than a few weeks.It is always in order for a member to ask why the Speaker\u2019s writ is not issued, and in nearly every instance that demand has been satisfied, and election has taken place.Already many eyes have been turned to the seat in question.Mr.Thomas McGreevy has told many of his friends tliat he will be a candidate.Mr.R.R.Dobell, who is expected home in a short time, has declared his intention of coming out in the Conservative interest.Mr.Lawrence Stafford\u2019s friends sre very anxious tp get him to run, and his claims are being urged with great

that Mr.Laurier favors the candidature of Mr.Lynch, who has been, and is now, a consistent and unswerving Liberal of the old school.The division has always returned an Irishman, either by birth or descent.It is an unwritten law, in fact, that the representative of Quebec West should be Irish.But, the division, of late years has become very French, and it would not surprise us to find a French

prominent than either Messrs.Smith or Bowell, though his term of political service has been shorter, is Hon.George E.Foster, Minister of Finance.It would not surprise any one to hear of the

that the exemption from seizure for the salaries of the Ottawa Government employees be abolished, \u201cA Lawyer,\u201d writing to the Monde, expresses surprise that the business community has not before this raised its voice against such exemptions in both the Federal and Provincial Governments.He considers the law an infamy and a disgrace and asks why so much protection should be given to officers of the Civil Service.Is it because their salary is paid with the money placed in the public treasury by the grocer, the baker, the butcher and others whom some officers of the Civil Service make it a scrupulous duty not to pay ?He adds that those who most greatly abuse the law are often those who receive the largest salaries, those who are called leading officers, and it is evident that the shameful law was adopted at their own suggestion.The finest and most healthful chocolate in the world is CHOCOLAT-ME! 1ER, dispensed daily at A.Grenier\u2019s, 94 St.John street.Thousands of

Wednesday last, she espied a suspicious-looking schooner sailing up the gulf.She soon overhauled the stranger and at once proceeded to capture her.This was no easy task, however, as the crew of the schooner, five in number, are reported to have made a most determined resistance, and it was not before two members of the \u201c Constance\u2019s \u201d crew had received wounds from an axe in the hands of one of the alleged smug- Îlers, that the schooner was made a prize.a the hold of the vessel were found thirty-six barrels and forty casesof spirits.A crew from the \u201cConstance\u201d was placed on board the prize, while the latter\u2019s crew were taken on board the cutter.The captured schooner is a vessel of about 40 tons, and was evidently built for a fishing craft.The name on her stern has been obliterated with black paint, but the word \u201cSteadfast\u201d could be made out.Each man on board denied being the captain, and it was impossible to tell who was in command.The crew of the captured vessel were taEen to the Quebec gaol last evening to await an investigation into their case.It is said that the schooner was not sup- Slied with proper papers when captund.ha was moored at the Marine and Fisheries\u2019 wharf, after her arrival here yesterday.To Celebrate the Haeen's Birthday.British Warships Which Will Be in tub Harbor on that Day Will Observe the Event

British North American fleet, which is to leave the Bermudas for Boston about May 19.It is too early yet to map out a definite \"programme for the celebration, but the main event in the matter will be a dinner on board the flagship by the Admiral on the 24th of May, the date of Queen Victoria\u2019s 73th birthday.To this banquet are invited or will be invited the Governor and a few of his staff, Collector Warren, the Mayor, Com-modore Fyfe, of the Navy Yard and suite, the British Consul, and possibly others, but the cabin of the \u201c Blake \u201d ia not equal to the hospitality of the Admiral.Only 16 of the party can find room therein, and the number oi covers mast of aourse be thus limited.The ships will hre a Royal salute at noon, and be handsomely dressed in flags ; and in the evening will be illuminated in honor of the event.This illumination will be a magnifi-cenb sight, if the promise be anything like the performance in other ports.The day will also be celebrated by the

the House to day, for the empty seat of the late member for Quebec West, Hon.John Hearn, was heavily draped with mourning, and upon the desk rested a magnificent cross of flowers, a tribute to the memory of the departed from his fellow-members In the House.The Speaker took the chair at three o eloelt.Before the orders of the day were called, Mr.Paterson (Brant) rose ami complained that it was now two months since the new tariff was announced and it was not through yet.The fault lay with the Government, lie said, who had come to the consideration of this tariff in a great state of unpreparedness.He held that the delay was not caused by the discussion of the Opposition, as was shown by the fact that to-day the House was asked to go into ComtniUee to consider amendments just proposed by the Minister of Finance himself.These changes, he held, were paralyzing trade.Again, there were adjourn-meats early in the night and on one occasion the Committee stopped work at six o\u2019clock.He hoped this batch of changes would close the matter so that the business of the country might proceed and said he ventured these remarks in order that the country might know that the responsibility for delay rested solely with the Government.Hon.Mr.Foster replied that while the hon.gentleman evidently arose with the intention of blessing the Opposition and cursing the Government, he had certainly managed to reverse the intended operation.The Budget was brought down on the 27th of March, about 12 days after the House met, and what prevented going into Committee then was not the unpreparedness of the Government, but the delay of the Opposition in order to travel over the old worn out ground of tariff policy and at no better gait than of yore.(Hear, hear.) That precious discussion kept the House a whole fortnight from ffoing into Committee.Thereafter, as soon as the Opposition stopped talking, they got down to business.The Government was quite ready and went on with work so long as the House would allow.Upon the occasion mentioned by Mr.Paterson, it was because he (Mr.Foster) was unwell and went home at six, but other Government business was taken up and no time lost.As for the complaint that the House rose as early as 11 and 12 o\u2019clock at night, he believed it was better to do business ia that way and let members go home and have a night\u2019s rest.(Hear, hear.) The Opposition need not mistake aboutit.People in the country read the papers and followed th« discussions and were thus aware of the fact that the Government was ready every day and proceeded with the consideration of the tariff just as long as the Opposition would allow.He was surprised at Mr.Paterson\u2019s temerity in making this charge, in view of the obstruction his friends had raised all through ihe session.He granted there had been some disturbance of business, but it had been the minimum possible so far as the Government\u2019s action was concerned, and if it had been greater than it should have been it was because of the long-winded harangues of the Opposition.(Cheers).Sir Richard Cartwright agreed as to the advisability of early adjournments, but the eause of delay was the changing of over 60 items of the original resolutions.Every change was a departure from the original Uriff propositions.Mr.Foster\u2019s original intentions had been good, he would give him credit for that, but it was clear to him that a business of barter and bargain and sale had been going on between the Government and the protected manufacturers ever since the tariff was first announced, and that was the real cause of delay.(Opposition cheers) Sir John Thompson was sure the House would agree it was a happy augury for the Government in this mafter, that their course had caused the hostility of Sir Richard Cartwright.(Hear, hear).Plainly the Opposition were forced by the stress of .public opinion and criticism of their senseless obstruction to make this attempt to avert the disaster of public condemnation.Proceeding, he pointed oat from the records of the House the absurdity of charging the Government with responsibility for delay through unreadiness or otherwise.Even on the occasion when the Finance Minister was obliged to go home at six o\u2019clock, the discussion up to that hour filled thirty columns of IJamard, and before adjournment six Government bills were put through.(Cheers).The Opposition, added the Premier warmly, would have to contract agood deal of cold print before they oopld succeed in making the country believe in the sham fight they had made this afternoon, The records of Parliament would be searched in vain to find a session in which the Government business had been so rapidly brought forward, and that in the face of obstruction so senseless that in regard to it the Oppositinn are now under the necessity of endeavoring to mislead public opinion, Hon.Mr.Laurier contended that both the Finance Minister and the leader of the House had gone aside from the issue raised by the Opposition, because the charge was not that the House had not sat late enough bnt that the Finance Minister, when he did bring down his Budget, did not know his own mind but had been amending and tinkering and undoing his own work ever since.As for the charge that the Opposition talked reel procity for two days together, he would appeal to the records to bear out his assertion that every reciprocity speech on the Opposi tion side wns followed by a reply from the Government benDhes.Sir Charles Hibbert Tapper pointed to the absurd and ignorant attacks upon the Behring Sea award with which the Opposirion opened the session and which the Government passed by almost unanswered in order to get to the real business of the session, the tariff.He contrasted the progress of the Uriff so far as the Government\u2019s arrangements were concerned, with the procedure in 1872, and challenged Sir Richard Cartwelght to show a Uriff revision whioh bad been so little changed since iU introduction in comparison with the number of items dealt with.Hon, Mr.Mills having spoken in reply, the House went into Committee of Ways and Means, The duty on black leathers, which had been reduced from 20 to 15 per cent by the new tariff, was made 17$ per cent, a reduction of 2$ per cent.The item of lumber and timber was altered so as to leave a duty of 20 per cent on all lumber further manufactured than planed on one side, the latter remaining on the free list with rough lumber.Wool manufactures were fixed at five cenU a pound and 25 per oent, It being 0 o\u2019clock, the Speaker left the chair.after recess.The following private bills were passed through Committee and read a third time :\u2014 An Act to incorporate the Welland Power and Supply Canal Co., (limited.) An Act to incorporate the Cariboo Railway Co.An Act to confirm an agreement between the Ottawa City Passenger Railway Co.and the OtUwa Electric Street Railway Co., and an agreement between the said Companies and the Corporation of the City of OtUwa, and to unite the said Companies under the name of \u201cThe Ottawa Electric Railway Co.\u201d An Act to incorporate the alliance of the Reformed Baptist Church of Canada and the several churches connected therewith.An Act to ineorporate the Ottawa Electric Light Co.An Act respecting the Chaudière Electric Light and Power Co.(limited), and to change the name thereof to \u201cThe Ottawa Electric Company.\u201d An Act respecting the Dominion Burglary Guarantee Co.(limited.)

broke, and the boiler fell a distance of about fifteen feet into the vessel\u2019s hold.The shock caused the steamer to leak badly, and she immediately began to fill and sink.The ferry steamer \u201c.South\u201d went to her assistance and two of the Levis steam fire en* gines were set to work to pump out the water, and the vessel was towed into an adjoining slip and beached, where the tide reached her main deck at iiigh water.One of Davie\u2019s steam pumps will lie placed on board the \u201cSt Louis,\u201d and as soon as possible she will go into dock for repairs.The accident will cause a considerable amount of loss.Fortunately no person was hurt, butoneof the employees of Carrier\u2019s establishment had a very narrow escape, as he passed under the boiler but a moment before
