Commons to day, Sir Ellis Ashmead Bartlett asked if the Government would make a statement in regard to the situation of the China-Japancsc peace treaty.Sir Edward Grey said communications were now passing between the powers concerning the conditions of peace between the two eastern countries and it would be impossible at this time to make a statement.He could not say when an official statement of the conditions of peace would be received.The Daily News correspondent in Berlin rays :\u2014Japan has not yet answered the triple protest.The statement that a more vigorous protest is impending appears to be unfounded or at all events premature.The News correspondent in Vienna says that diplomatic circles in Tokio believe a settlement could be effected by Russia\u2019s restoring Saghalieu to Japan and China's compensating Russia with Manchuria.The Central News correspondent in Tokio says :\u2014\u201cThere is re&SCm to believe that in consequence of the fullest and frankest exchange of views between Germany and Japan, the former is likely to change her attitude id a direction decideilly favorable to Japan.The Standard's Vienna correspondent quotes a despatch from the St.Petersburg correspondent of the Polttische Correspondent, to the effect that Russia has reason to hope Japan will consider seriously tbe protest against the treaty.His comment is s\u2014 \"My own information does not confirm this optimistic view.I hear that Japan declares it impossible to yield to Russia\u2019s dictation and is preparing accordingly for complications.She has placed large orders for war material in several European countries.She is acquiring war ships, mainly small swift cruisers, from European and American dockyards.Nevertheless, before such vessels can be delivered, the great question has been decided that no respite shall be alluWed China regarding the ratification of the treaty.Her action as regards China will be prompt and decisive.The march upon Pekin will begin the moment the armistice expires.Russia\u2019s claim will be politely set aside.It will then he imperative that the allies bring matters to an issue.\u201d The Standard's correspondent in Paris says \u201cThe general expression of hostility at France\u2019s assistance to coerce Japan has had a salutary effect Now it is intimated that France's intervention always was meant to be purely diplomatic and cxpostulatory.To cover the retreat from an untenable position, it is announced that Japan is willing to make concessions.\u201cThe Temps represents Japan as w illing to extend the time of ratification.When the Deputies will reassemble on tbe 14th, the Government will be asked what course ha* been adopted in the East.I think the answer will be to the effect that interference was intended to le purely diplomatic.\u201d The Times' correspondent in Shanghai says :\u2014\u201cThe Emperor urgently commanded Li Hung Chang to Pekin to consult with him-as to the ratification of the treaty.Prince Kung also urged the necessity of Li\u2019s presence, as otherwise his labor in Japan was lost.Certain Ministers and Princes have petitioned the Emperor to pay a vastly in-created indemnity instead of ceding Manchuria.Fukien officials have drawn up a memorial protesting against the cession of Formosa and offering to contribute to & redemption fund.Viceroy Liu Kun Yi and General Suug declare that the Emperor intends to fight to tbe death sooner than surrender Manchuria.It appears certain that Russia has handed her ultimatum to Japan.\u201d The Times' correspondent in St.Petersburg says that the Minister in Tokio was assured, when he pressed the Government for a reply to the joint vote, that an answer would be given in a few- days, when the Minister of Foreign Affairs, who is absent, should return.The Times' correspondent in Odessa reports that Russia lias made every preparation for war ami is quite ready to mobilize for hostilities against Japan, in case Japan does not comply with her demands.Paris, May 2\u2014The Matin eays that the protesting powers, Russia, France and Germany, are about to open pou,r/xsrUrs with Japan and that a satisfactory arrangement of the difficulty is possible, as the powers do not intend to impose conditions not befitting the rights of victory or which would dimmish legitimate national pride.The Gaulois says that Japan is disposed to yteld her present territorial concession for another in a region where Russia has no interest.Washington, May 2\u2014Much gratification is expressed at the State Department over the reported acquiescence by China in the treaty of peace with Japan.As the ratifications of the treaty have to be exchanged at Chee Foo before May 8 and as that place is at least four days journey from Pekin, it is tegarded as strongly probable that tbe trehty, duly signed by the Chinese Emperor, is already on its way to the appointed place of ratification.The .Japanese Emperor ratified the iustru-Hunt more than a week ago.Little importance is attached at the Department to the newspaper reports of Russia\u2019s possible interference.It is predicted that Russia will not be heard from again in con neclion with Japan\u2019s attitude.So far as the United States is concerned, the statement is reiterated without reserve that no European alliance against Japan will cause this G v -rn-ment to enter into an agreement with England or any olber Power to offset itj GREAT BRITAIN.London, May 2\u2014The Standard ha* obtain* ed some detail* of a document which the Pope is said to have communicated to the Cardinals and heads of order*.This document, the Standard is informed, has the form of a political testament.It recalls the condition of the Papal See when Leo XIII.was elected.The apathy of the Power* showed, it says, the necessity of the Papacy\u2019s taking a position which would prevent it* absorption hy the new order of thing* instituted in Rome.Therefore, continnona efforts were made to associate other Governments with the Papacy in making snch concessions as the times required.If appearanoe* were not alwas favorable to this line of conduct, the document says, it has been gradually justified nevertheless by the facts, as any other line wonld have lowered the Papacy, which then would have been subjected to some Power instead of remaining in a superior position.The document continues, according to the Standard, substantially as follows :\u2014 \u201cEven if temporal power.has not been obtained, the Papacy has arrived at a situation enabling it, when the opportune moment shall come, to dictate conditions, and the same calm prudent line of action will coodnct still further to that end if followed unaltered.\u201d The document warmly appeals to the Cardinals, when they gather in any future conclave, to keep this ideal and continue this policy, a* well as to hasten tbe election of the next Pope without allowing time for outside intrigues and the jealousy of Powers to influence the Cardinals\u2019 votes and hamper the chosen one.Tbe whole drift of the document is to seenre tbe choice of a successor who will continue the present Pope\u2019s policy.The Daily News has this despatch from Constantinople :\u2014The Turkish Ambassador in St.Petersburg has reported that in a recent interview Prince Lobanoff, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, said that Russia, Great Britain and France soon would present to tbe Porte a joint note embodying a plan of reforms to be tried in Armenian provinces.The Prince expressed the hope that-tbe Porte would act on this note.The Turkish Committee on Armenian reforms, which has been remarkably active lately, has submitted to the Sultan a scheme empowering Armenians to share in Provincial administration.His Majesty approved tbe proposal.FRANCE.Paris, May 2\u2014Proust and Deville, the leaders of the recent omnibus strike, were seutenced to day to six months' imprisonment each for inciting the men to disorder and violence.GERMANY.Hamburg, May 2\u2014The Hamburger NacK-richten prints the following card :\u2014\u201cFrom all parts of Germany, from Germans abroad, from foreigners and particularly from citizens of the United States of America, so many congratulations reached me on the occasion of my 80th birthday that it is my deep regret I am utiab'e to acknowledge them individually.My friends will accept my cordial thanks for their kind greetings and wishes, at the same time expressing the hope that they will excuse the non receipt of a written reply.(Signed) Bismarck.\u201d AFRICA.Cape Town, May 2\u2014At the opening of tbe Cape Colony Parliament to-day.General Goodenough, acting for the Governor, announced that arrangements had been made for delegates of Cape Colony and Canada to discuss a treaty of commerce.NEWFOUNDLAND.St.John\u2019s, May 2\u2014The Britkli warship \u201cTourmaline,\u201d Captain Sir Richard Poore, leaves here to-morrow, having been ordered to proceed to

DAY Friday Each Week.FOR CASH ONLY f 5EHAN BROTHERS.QUEBEC, FRIDAY, MAY 3,1895.THE TALK OF THE DAY.If Newfoundland enters the Canadian Confederation, ahj must do so properly and with the full and free consent of her people.New Brunswick was allowed to vote on the question, and that Province at first toted dead against the QueUeo scheme, because the electors had not had time to study the question.Its very magnitude made them afraid.But a year later, the electors, fully educated up to the idea, reversed their decision, and the Province was carried by the Unionists When Dr.Tcpper, the Premier of Nova^ Sjotia, saw that Mr.Tilley had lost his measure in the adjoining Province, he de dined to adopt the plan of submitting the question to the pebple.He carried Union in the Legislature, and the electors were so incensed agiinst him and the course he had pursued, that when the elections were held for members of the Canadian House of Commons, he was the only man elected on his side, the other eighteen members being elected to oppose Confederation with Canada, with all their might.Nova Scotia has never quice been satisfied, and it will not be be fore another generation comes along that she will be.It will not do to repeat that error with Newfoundland.The people ought to be trusted with the right of gay ing \u201cyes\u201d or \u201cno,\u201d to a question which so largely concerns their future welfare.TV e believe that the Union would prove bene ficial to both countries, but we do not want an unsatisfied and unwilling sister in the family.Let the people have a voice in the nutter, even if they vote against Union the fir t time.There is no great hurry.The rumor is revived that Mr.Justice Fournier, of the Supreme Court of Canad», has resigned his seat on the Bench owing to ill-health.The statement wis first made in the Ottawa Citizen of Wednesday morning.But in the evening of the same day it was denied, and we were then told that the Judge, whose age infirmities and illness have sorely tried him lately, had applied for six months leave of absence and intended to take much needed rest.However, the story of a vacancy on the Supreme Court Bench seems to have been got up for a purpose for with the alleged resignation of Judge Fournier there was a line saying that his place would be taken by the Minister of Agriculture.Now, as a matter of fact we know, on the very best authority, that Mr.Angers his no present intention of leaving the Cabinet.He holds one of the most important portfolios in the country and is identified with much work that he feels it is duty to complete, and he is not the man, as his whole career has proved to leave behind him unfinished business It has always been his custom to see a thing through, under any and all circumstances.Judge Fournier is in hi 72nd yeir.He has been a member of the Bench of the Supreme Court of Canada since 1875,\u2014nearly nineteen years.He certainly ou^ht to be relieved of his duties at a liberal pension, if he dtsires it, but Mr.Angers will not be his successor.That yarn from Buffalo, which charges Mr.Tarte with being the financial agent anl promoter of an alleged annexation party, operating in Canada and in the United States, has a very fishy look about it.Imagine a fund of fifty thousand do! lars being employed to bring about the severance of the tie which binds this country to Great Britain.Fifty millions of dollars might be spent in such a cause and yet bring out no tangible or practical result, in the direction indicated.Fifty thousand dollars, spent on sjch a cry, would not change a single Canadian constituency.To our mind, the whole story liai been put into circulation to boom the loyalty of Mr.Laurier, who is said in this precious fairy tale, to scout the idea of annexation.If that is the true inwardness of the affair, the idea was not half bad, as political ammunition on the eve of the elections.DM10Y PmiMT H0US3 OF COMMON!

Dear Sir,\u2014Although Colonel Forrest signs his communication to you in his official capacity, I sincerely hope that this is not to signify, as would at first sight appear, that he is acting under authority in making the thinly veiled threat he does to the city about the possible withdrawal of the troops now here in case of the Corporation compelling the Government to pay the same water rates upon its property that all private citizens pay upon their\u2019s.The Government is asked tor nothing more than this, and should pay nothing less, especially as the property io question is assessed for water only and is exempt from the payment of all ordinary taxes, levied upon all ordinary citizens.Nobody ought tq be misled by the fallacious and specious reasoning that the Government is asked to pay so much for water for so many men.It is no such thing.The water rate would be the same whether the garrison of the Citadel and other barracks in town consisted of ten men or ten thousand men.The water rate is so much in the dollar on the value of the Citadel and other Government property, irrespective of its population, and it is preposterous to pretend that the Mayor is asking anything unfair of the Government when he requires it to pay water rates on the value of its property instead of upon its population, just as he does the un dersigned, and proprietors of valuable warehouses in Lower Town, where perhaps only two or three clerks nse water to wash their hands or to draw a tumblerful to drink.Thu Government's withdrawal of nine-tenths of the péfmanent force from Quebec will leave it liable to pay just the same water rates as it does upon the same property when occu pied by a full garrison, so that upon that score the Mayor and ciiizeni may rest per 'feotly at their ease, your correspondent of yesterday to the contrary notwithstanding.A Ratepayer.Quebsc, 2nd May, V895.)£\u2022 ¦ 1, 1895.ARBOR DAÏ.Tlte celebration of Arbor Day in tljo eastern section of the Province lias been fixed for Saturday next, the 4th inst.His Honor the Lieutenant-Governor will, as he did last spring, set the example by planting a true with his own hands in front of tite Parliament Buildings, and wo hope to see around him a large gathering of leading men, who, by their presence, wijl show how much they appreciate the im-{K>rtnice of teaching our people thc value \u2022 >f our forests, the dury of protecting them and the best means for restoring them wherever they have been r.-cklessly destroyed.It is a promising outlook for the welfare of our Province to see all party difficulties laid aside whenever there is useful work to be done, such as giving a helping hand t * agriculture, the dairy industry, forestry', etc.The public is cordially invited to attend the tree-planting ceremony to-morrow, and it is imped that all who have trees to plant upon their private lands or estates, I will als » take advantage of Arbor Day for ! the purpose.Protestants in Baauport Asylum.(7\u2019o the Editor of the Morning Chronicle.) Sir,\u2014I learn from your columns, that the energetic and bcnevolentCommittee of Verdun Asylum hrve had a day of thanksgiving and supplication, on behalf of that well managed and useful institution.I have not one word of fault to fi id, either with the institution, or thanksgiving and supplication on its behalf.But I fail to see the necessity for associating with these exercises, so much stone throwing at the Protestant ministers of Quebec, who have sought justice and fair play, for the Protestant insane in Beau port Asylum.It was not for nought they rendered thanks to the demigods of the Provincial Government.According to their own statement, they have been treated with special generosity, and just recently have had the salary of the Protestant Chaplain at Beauport Asylum\u20148400 a year\u2014 transfeirsd tp them ; such generosity may well excite their gratitude.But this thanksgiving\u2014based on cosh\u2014Is only the preface to supplication, for they asked about $1,500 % «ear, in the form of interest on money to be employed in building another wing to Verdun.To such a prayer I can heartily say amen.No student of human nature will deny the tact and wisdom of placing such a preface before such a prayer, and that it found a soft place in the hearts of the Provincial demigods was fully apparent.It was evidently a melting moment between the worshippers and the worshipped, but which of them best enjoyed the ludicrous humor of the situation, at this distance it is impossible to say ; the demigods who listened' to their own praise and heard their enemies reviled, or the worshippers who saw the demigods blushing beneath their soft adulation and smiling at their fierce vituperation cf their Protestant brethern.It was really a fine drama, even if not sufficiently dignified for the actors, but the public can overlook that f«r the privilege of paying the piper.But there is a serious side to this drama.When a big boy takes \u201ct ie apple front (he little boy and then punishes him for grumbling, the drama becomes more tragical.Verdun Asylum has taken $400 a year from the Protestant insane of Beauport Asylum, ami because some of us have asked for some provision for religious services for the Protestant insane of Beau port, Mr.Thomas and Dr.Barclay go out of their way to malign us.I must remind these gentlemen that truth is just as essential in negative as in positive asseyions.Up to the present moment not a single statement I have made, on this subject, has been disproved ; and until this has been done, the laiigu ige of theae gentleman is not creditable to them, and cannot exculpate the Provincial Secre tary from positiva charges of maladministration in this ease I have never said an unkind word about Verdun, I have never treated their interests and ours as rival interests, and for what selfish or party object certain gentlemen have attacked m?', under cover of defending Verdun, I am at a loss to kuow.If our Provincial demigods have to pay $1U0 a year for defenders, and if these gentlemen have to strain the quality of truth in maligning their brethern, for another $1,500 a year, there must be something rotten in the state of Denmark.\\V.T.Noble.Quebec, May 2nd, 1895.NOTdiS FROM THB CAPITAL.(From Our Own Correspondent.) .Ottawa, May 2\u2014The Government has received seven tenders for steamship

suffer from indigestion one day longer.Buy a package of Adams\u2019 Pepsin Tutti Frutti.Refuse imitations.Ottawa, May 2\u2014Railway passes and the propriety of granting them to members of Parliament or rather the propriety of members of Parliament receiving them, made the subject of an interesting debate in the House of (\u2019ominous this afternoon Tne matter was introduced by Mr.Mulock, who moved the second reading of his bill to amend \u201cThe Act respecting the Senate anti House of Commons.\u201d Mr.Mulock is one of the very few millionaires in the House.He also represents the farming constituency of North York, where Patron interests predominate.Consequently Mr.Mulock finds it pa>s politically to put on Patron airs occasionally.The three chief clauses of his bill read us follows : \u2014 No member of the Senate or of the House of Commons shall travel by any railway to or from Ottawa in connection with his attendance at the session of Parliament, either free or at any rate of fare less than that allowed to the general public.\u201d Form \u201cC\u201d in the schedule to the Act respecting the Senate and the House of Commons is hereby amended by adding thereto- the following words : \u2014 \u201cThat I have not travelled by railway to or from Ottawa, in connection with my attendance of the\tsaid session, either free or at a ly late of fare less than that allowed to the general public.No mileage allowance shall he payable to a member until he has made the declaration in the said form \u2018C\u2019 as hereby amended.\u201d Members of Parliament, in addition to their sessional indemnity of $1,000 a year, re ceive a travelling allowance of ten cents a mile each way.In the case of members who live at long distances from the Capital, this gives a nice little sum of from $200 to $600.The outcome of the discussion was an affirma tion of the principle that, as representatives of the people, members of Parliament should be entitled to travel free overall lines subsidized by the people's money.This view was put forward in such practical shape hy the Minister of Public Works that it was warmly supported by Dr.Weldon, Sir Richard Cartwright and other leading members on both \u2022ides.Mr.Muloch, in moving the second reading of the bill, of course disclaimed any intention of imputing corrupt motives to members who accept passes, hut he thought the mileage should not be collected by members who travelled free.He said nothing of the tenor of the first clause of the measure.Hon.Mr.Foster, however, desired to say a few words on the principle of the bill, if the House proposed to vote on it at once.He thought the hon.gentleman hail no busi ness to prescribe how a member should travel It was all right to provide that a member should not draw his mileage if he travels in certain way, but surely he might be left otherwise to travel as he chose, either on a pass or on foot or in a carriage.Mr.Fraser opposed the bill because of its invidious distinctions.Suppose, he said, a member conies here on a steamship, then tiie bill does not apply.If we make a law* to prevent a member travelling free on a railway, why not also prevent him travelling free on a steamer or a mail coach or\u2014 An hon.member,\u2014\u201cUr a bicycle.\u201d \u201cNo,\u201d exclaimed another member, \u201cfor in that case he works his own passage.\u201d Mr.MacLean (East York) supported the bill, because bethought that if the thirty odd thousand dollars a year allowed as mileage were really paid by members, the railway companies would, on account of the increased revenue, be able to carry passengers generally at low rates.(Laughter.) \u201cWell,\u201d added the member for Eist York, \u201ceither that or oblige all railways by statute to carry mem bers free.\u201d \u2022 Mr.Edgar opposed the bill except as to the provision regarding the non payment of mileage allowance.Hon.Mr.Ouimel had two suggestions to make which would simplify matters.First, allow members the actual expense of say three return trips to Ottawa during the session.Members usually visited their homes that often these long sessions.Second, adopt the practice followed in France, where rail ways are compelled to carry the people's representatives free at all times and to all parts of the country.Members would make all the better legislators for being'thoroughly acquainted with the country.The Minister also pointed out that the bill would prevent a member of Parliament, who happened to he a Director, from travelling free over his own road.He admitted it was invidious that some members should gel railway passes and others not.The more manly course would be for Parliament to say that all members should travel free.Dr.Weldon rather supported this view Members, he thought, could not know too much about the country, and the best way to learn of its needs was to visit all parts of it.As to the implication of obligation contained in the bill, he said ; \u201cIt will be a serious mistake for us to give out to the country that we are less worthy than w'e know ourselves to be.\u201d \u2022 Hon.Mr.Laurier moved the adjournment of the'debate.The following bills were introduced in the House and read a first time : An Act to provide increased facilities for drainage across lines of railway.An Act to amend the Act respecting the adulteration of food, drugs'and agricultural fertilizers.An Act to facilitate voting by employees at elections of members of the House of Com m one.An Act to determine the hours of labor for workmen and laborers in public works.An Act respecting commercial treaties affecting Canada,\t* Mr.Flint enquired how many vaoincics are in the Senate at present, and got the follow ing information in reply from the leader of the House :\u2014Trent, Ontario, Hon.Billa Flint died 15ih June, 1894 ; Rougemcut, Quebec, H<>a.W.H Chaffers died 16; h July, 1891 ; Sunbury, N.B., Hon.John Glazier died 7th July,

Quebec, -Sir John Abbott died 30th October, 1893; Westmorelaul, N B,, Hon, A.E.Botsford diod 19th March, 1894 ; Bydney, N.S., Hon.T.D.Archibald died 18th October, 1890; St.J.ihn, N.B., Hon.John Boyd died 4th December, 1893.as far in explanation as probably is necessary at the present moment.As to the merits of that rearrangement, that is a question for the House to discuss and to approve or disapprove when it is submitted to it, and as my honorable friend the Minister of Agriculture says, it is subject to the approval of Parliament.The constitutional procedure relerred t > hy Senator Miller is the correct one.No Government has the power to bind itself to pay any public nnney, or to make any readjustment of a bargain, arrangement or contract into which they have entered with any Company or individual, without the consent of Parliament.Parliament having given its approval amt concurred in tl e last proposition, it will be necessary to come before P.uliament to ascertain whether they will vary, alter or amend it.This is really the whole position.I am sure Senator Miller will lie glad to know that the Government was not so regardless of the interests of the country', or so lavish in its promises in aid of cons\u2019ruction of the road, as to pledge itself to a grant of $10,000 per mile in addition to the 5,400 acres of land which it had agreed to give, us well as the $80,000 r annum.Such is not the case.I may say thus far, that the Government has shown a disposition and has laid before Parliament repeatedly, pioposirions to aid in the development of the N >rth West, and I think I am not boasting when I lav that few Governments would havg gone further, and it is a very grave question whether we have not gone as far at the present moment as intimated by my bon.friend from Richmond, considering the finances of the country.That is a question we may possibly discuss more intelligently when the papers are laid before the Honss.Senator Scott\u2014Before the rearrangement is cairied out, I should like to ask whether it is to be made the subject of un Act of Purlii ment.There have been occasions when a resolution passed by the Privy Council has been approved hy the other Chamber and has somi times been acted upon.Whit I desire to know is whether this proposed rearrangement will be the subject of legislation and whether botli House* will be asked to pronounce upon it ?Sir Mackenzie B >well\u20141 was* under the impression that I bad made that statement.Thd Arrangement is subject to the approval uf Parliament and occupies the same position as the Short, Line Bill Senator Lougheed\u2014Is the subsidy conditional upon the road being constructed as a through road or simply as a colonization road, and has any assurance or financial guarantee been lodged with the Government as to the ability of the present Company to build the road ?Sir Mackenzie Bowcll\u2014The change in the contract or agreement with tho Company only to the extension of the road as far as Saskatchewan.There have been no securities lodged with the Government, as the Government was not in a position to enter into any agreement or contract with the Company until the approval of Parliament had been obtained.Senator Angers introduced a bill to amend the Civil Service Act, so as to provide that witnesses examined by the Civil Service Examiners bo compelled to answer questions and be committed in default.STRAW HATS.FLOWERS !

an important state ment as to the agreement entered into between the Railway Company and the Government a few months ago.The question came up on a motion for a return of all Orders in-t'ouucil, letters or other papers relating to any subsidy or loan or guarantee in connec lion with the Hudson Bay Railway within the last two years, made by Senator Miller Sir M ickenzie Bowcll said the manner in which ti e subject had been introduced was iudicative of1 the fpçljng that was held by many upon this important question.No ont; could complain uf the tone or manner in which the hon.gentleman had brought the matter to the attention of the House.He had, however, been misled by gewspaper reports winch had appeared at various times, A discussion of the merits or demerits of tho action of the Government would more pro purlycome when ths papers in the case were before the Senate, lie desired to oall atteu tion to one or t-vo alavirrunts made by Senator Miller from information derived by iiim from newspaper rep >rts and not from any official source.There had been, ho said, no subsidy of $10,0)0 per mile agree l upon or offered or even suggested in addition to the $80,000 per annum which the Government and Parliament of Cana la is now pledged to, in consideration of certain services which are to be rendered, nor is there any additional grant offered or propi>sed.It is à rearrangement of the liabilities ot Canada in consideration of tho BULrouder of all the liabilities we arc now under in order to assist the road.The House is aware that tfie Gavernment is nqw pledged to r>,4()0 acres per iqile and a payment of $80,003 per aruiuiq for taeuty years in ajd ot tfie not|-atruction of the road.Tue $3 ),090, I have already intimated, is in consideration of services which are to bo rendered in the way of postal services, etc.The present proposition or Or»ler-in-C juncil, which will be better understood w hen it is laid before the Mouse, is simply a rearrangement or in other words a loan of $10,000 per mile for a certain length of time, for which the Company surrenders or rather gives in security the $80,090 per annum and the 6,409 acre* per mile.I know that the House or the people will say, what is true, thu this is taking back the land which belongs to us and it is giving security upon $80 0 )9 per annum to which we arc now pie Ig d ninl weigh we need not-give if the road is not built.That is quite ¦ rue, but these are liabilities into which the country h is entered an 1 which we are bound to pay in case they construct the road.They have ieprcseule-1 to the Government that they could not with those securities float the bonds and obtain the money, and they ask d for a rearrangement or a readjustment of the aid which was given.Now that is GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY.A-V INFLUENTIAL DEPUTATION WAITS UPON THE FINANCE COMMITTEE.An exceedingly influential deputation of members and friends of the Great Nonhern Railway (Company and citizens favorable to tho scheme waited upon the Finance Committee of the City Corporation last night, to set before it the measure of assistance asked of the city by the Company.Amongst others present were the Hon.P.Girneau, M.LC., Hou.L.I*.Pelletier, Provincial Secretary, Mr.V.Chateauvert, M.P.P., Mr.Jas.G.Scott, Mr.F.X.Berlin-guet, Mr.Jos.Archer, Mr.Taché, Manager of the People's Bank Halifax, and others.Of the.members of ilie Finance Committee and City Council present were Alderman Tauguay, who presided, His Worship Mayor Parent, Hon.John iSharples, M.L.C., and Aldermen and Counoillors Tessier, M.P.P., C.Panel Angers, Q.C., A.H.Cook, L.Stafford, Q C., J.H.Gignac, Baquet, Boisseau, Gritfin, Thihaudeau, Dion (Jacques Cartier Bank), Ik-langer, Reynolds, Madden,Gagnon, Boisvert, &c.Ron.P.Garneau, being asked by the president if he had anything to say to the Committee, remarked that he was present to give any information that might be required, but that he had already, on former occasions, tp ;ken very fully to the Committee on the matter.He would ray, however, that the Company had already built ten miles of the road and were now eug iged in building ten miles more.He had been lately to New York with Mr.J.G Son it, the Secretary, and they had seen the proprietors of the Lower Laurentian road and were pretty cer tain of a fair measure of assistance from them if the oity of Quebec show ad its rcadinem to do something.Tney were only asked to guarantee $250,000 worth of 4 per cent bonds, say $10,000 a year, and it was impossible to over-estimate the importance to Quebec of being the Atlantic terminus of a road that brought Duluth 800 miles nearer to Liverpiol than any presently exisiing route.Mr.Chateau voit made a very practical speech almost in the same sense as that of tho Hon.P.Garneau.Hou.L P.Pelletier, Provincial Secretary, made an energetic speech in which he showed that Quebec must either take moans to help herself or stop where she now is.Referring to the great things which the Great Northeru Railway was expected to do for Quebec, he recalled the measure of assistance given tho line by the Government and said that it would he quite incomprehensible il Quebec did nothing to aid the project.In addition to the new territory that would be opened up by the Great Northeru, he dwelt upon the large measure of assistance that it would bring to the Quebec and Lake St.John Rail way by using 58 miles of its rc&d.For his part, as a large proprietor and taxpayer in Quebec, he had full confidence that thp Great Northern would contribute largely to the prosperity of Quebec.It was absurd to believe^that a road that would lessen by 800 miles \"the distance between Parry Sound and Liverpoo1, would not greatly enrich the seaport of Quebec, to which it would bring tbe produce of the great North-West.Hon.P.Garneau expressed the belief that all the largest proprietors and taxpayers of Quebec were, like Mr.Pelletier, in favor of the city aiding the proposed road.( Mr.Scott produced an agreement respect ing traffic arrangements over the practically consolidated lines from Parry Sound to Que bec, and showed that amongst the increased traffic to be shortly expected from the Lower Laurentian road were at least 3,000 cars a year from a pulp mill on the St.Maurice, besides 1,000 cars from an iron furnace company ou the Piles Branch.The taking over of the Lower Laurentian had also resulted in the shipment of supplies to the country traversed by it from the city of Quebec instead of from Montreal, as heretofore.Mr.Archer anti others spoke in favor of aid to the road, and the deputation withdrew, It was then proposed, by the majority of tho Committee, to at once recommend to tho Council the framing of a by-law on the subject, but, iu the absence of several members, it was decided to defer the matter until next Thursday.\u201cCkukl Only to ns Kind\"\u2014Much unneces sary suffering is inflicted under the above ex

Patrick F.Benson, the lawyer whose home is in San Francisco and whose office is at 456 Eighth street, Oakland, has received information from a firm of Glasgow attorneys that one of his Scotch ancestors has left him a fortune of £175,000, nearly $375,000.Mr.Benson cabled immediately to the Glasgow firm that he had received the letter, and then he set out to put his atT.iirs in order for a trip to Scotland.He will go right away, he says, to look out for ids interests, and he is confident of landing his hig inheritance m America before the summer is over.The only thing that worries Mr.Beusin is the possibility of bogus heirs springing up all over the country and contesting for a share of the big estate.Mr.Benson says the fortune has descended to him from his great grandfatlier, Sir John Downes.Sir John was a Scotch soldier of renown.He owned a large estate, and besides that he left a claim against England in connection with the War Department.The exact nature of that claim Mr.Hrnson refuses to reveal lest he should give valuable information to some claim manufacturer.Mr.Benson\u2019s grandmother, Mrs.Downes, died in.Scotland not long ago.The estate was in her name, and M r.Benson declares that he is the only heir to that property.In the letter received that point was covered by the Scotch attorneys as follows :\u2014 \u201cIt was quite clear that the War Office of Great Britain never paid over the money to yonr grandmother\u2019s heirs.That being so, and you being the heir, you have the same claim as your grandmother had.In our opinion i£ will be necessary that yon go to London with- us and have the matter settled up at headquarters.In the meantime I have written a private letter to one of our members of Parliament, who is well acquainted with the facts in regard to getting inetructions which will clear our way upon arrival in London.\u201d I have always known about this big estate,\" said Mr.Benson, to-day, \u201cbut I have taken no steps to present my claim.Nothing else seems to be in the way now, and I am sonfident that I shall get the money all right.I shall start east in a few days, and will reach Scotland just as quickly as possible.All that troubles me is the possibility of having to fight off bogus claimants to the property.I am the only heir to the Sir John Downes estate, bqt I learned from the Senator Fair case and in other conteste of that kind that it is no easy thing for a child to rise up and call himself an heir.Big estates all cause lots of litigation, and I may have trouble of some kind, but the property is mine and I will fight for it.\u201d Mr.Benson has been practising law hero for many years.The Orlsta in Newfoundland.IlY\" WILLIAM GRESWKLL ( From Lilt ell's Living Age, Xo.26.fi.) Historically, Newfoundlaud, as \u201cEngland\u2019s oldest colony,\u201d has a most picturesque and interesting past.It was discovered by Cabot and an English crew, in June, 1497.and in 1383, Sir Humphrey Gilbert, under commission from Queen Elizabeth, landed and took formal possession of the island.Here it was that Lord Baltimore (Sir George Calvert) embarked, in 1624, upon his romantic enterprise at Ferryland, in the peninsula of Avalon, offering his home as an asylum to Charles I.; hero it was that visions of colonization presented themselves, in the early days of British colonization, to Lord Bacon, and a number of noblemen and gentlemen.Lord Bacon declared that the fisheries of Newfoundland were richer than the mines of Peru, and it is certainly true, that a gold mine may soon exhaust itself, but the capacity of the codtisli for reproduction is infinite.That our \u201coldest colony\u201d should now be banned ami stigmatized as bankrupt and impecunious is an evil stroke of fate.A Powerful New Gas.The World's Paper Trade Iteview says : \u2014 \u201cCoal dust and lime have been chemically combined, and when pDccd in water produce acetylene gas, the richest illuminating gas known, equal to fifteen times that of ordinary gas.It is claimed it can lie made at 30 ceqts per 1,000 feet.This new combination is called calcic carbide, and contain* 40 parts by weight of calcium and \u201824 of carbon.Uir'\u2019 the addition of water the slacked lime and gas are produced.The mixture is cast into rods 1*2 inches long, 1 j inches wide, weighs one pound, and gives five cubic feet of gas, 98 percent power.It can be stored by liquefying and can bo used for all lighting purposes, particularly railway lighting.One slick will givo twenty uandle-lignt ten

Bohemian Club recently.The Englishman told a singular story to his host and vouched for its correctness in every particular It related to the story of \u201cJack the Ripper/ which the physician declared was no longer a mystery among the scientific men of London, nor the detectives of Scotland Yard.Ho said that this assassin was a medical man of high standing and extensive practice.He was married to a beautiful and amiable wife and had a family.Shortly before the beginning of the Whitechapel murders he developed a peculiar, and, to his wife, an inexplicable mania, an unnatural PLBASITRK IN CAUSING PAIN.She grew so alarmed that she became afraid of him and locked herself and children up when she saw the mood coming over him.VV hen he recovered from the paroxysms and she spoke to him about it, he laughed at her fears.Then the Whitechapel murders filled London with horror.The suspicious of tho wife were aroused, and as one assassination succeeded another she noted with heartbreaking dread that, at tho periods when these murders were supposed to have been committed, her husband was invariably ab sent from home.At last the suspense and fear of the wretched wife became unbearable and she went to some of her husband\u2019s medical friends, staled the case and asked their advice and assistance.They called the Scotland Yard force to assist them, and by adding one fact to another the chain of evidence pointing to the doctor as the author of the MURDERS BECAME COMPLETE.The physicians visited the murderer and told him they wished to consult him about the remarkable occurrences.They stated his ow n case in detail and asked him what should be done under the circumstances.He replied that while the unmistakable insanity of tho person who could commit these crimes would save him from the halter, he should certainly be confined in a lunatic asylum.Then they told him that he himself was the maniac who had committed these fearful acts.He declared the impossibility of the accusation, hut confessed that of late years there were gaps in the twenty-four hours of which he positively had no recollection.Hu said he had awakened in his room as if from a stupor and found blood upon his hoots and stains of blood upon his bauds.He had also scratches upon his face, and his amputating knives had shown signs of use, though he could not recall having assisted at any operation.These doctors then assured him that there could be no doubt of his identity with the Whitechapel assassinations.They made an exhaustive search of the house, led by the accused, found ample proofs of murder, and the unhappy man whose mind at that moment was in its nominally clear condition begged to be removed from the world as a guilty &ud dangerous monster.THE NECESSARY PAPERS WERE MADE OUT and the irresponsible murderer was committed to an insane asylum.In a mouth or two he lost all semblance to sanity, and is now the most intractable and dangerous man confined in the institution.William Greer Harrison, manager of the Thames & Mersey Marine Insurance Co., playwright and club man, was seen by a press representative in regard to the despatch connecting a prominent London physician, whose name was not given, with the \u201cJack the Ripper\u201d murders several years ago.Mr.Harrison stated that the despatch was entirely correct in every particular so far as the matter reaching him through Dr.Howard is concerned He stated that Dr.Howard is a well-known London physician who passed through San Francisco on a tour of the world several months ago, and that while he was here he [Harrijon] met Howard at the Buchanan Club and the latter told him the remarkable story and vouched for its authenticity.* Remnants in all departments at S.Parsley\u2019*, Montreal,

side of Maple Avenue, n^ar the foot of the street, owned by Mr.Burroughs and occupied by Mr.Donovan, carter, who was engaged yesterday in housemoving and had taken out his last load of furniture shortly before the fire was discovered.The wind was quite strong and the sparks and pieces of burning wood fell about so much that several neighbouring houses took tire and were only extinguished with ditficuLy.Mr.Lortie\u2019s house was a case in point, the villagers working like Trojans with water and wet blankets to save it.Mayor Lee succeeded in obtaining permission from Mayor Parent for the nse of the city tire brigade and it did good service.It protected neighbouring property and poured streams of water upon Mr.Walsh\u2019s barns, upon DeSaU-berry street, that were also ignited by falling sparks.Musical \u2014Mr.Henry Carter will take charge of the music at Christ Church on the Boulevard and Seventy-first street, New \\ork, this month, in the place of Mr.P.C.El wards, who has resigned after holding the positiuu during the last nine years.Mr.Carter came from London years ago to be organist at the English Cathedral of Quebec.There he gave the first oratorio ever heard in Canada.When the eighty thousand dollar organ was erected in Boston Music Hall, he was one of the regular organists appointed to perform upon that instrument, holding at the same time a church position at the Church of the Advent, Boston,and also at St.Stephen\u2019s, Providence.From 1873 to 1880 ho made himself known to New York by his recitals at Old Trinity,-^New York, and Plymouth Church, Brooklyn.Since then be has been professor at the College of Music, Cincinnati, and organist at the Church of the Heavenly Rest, Fifth avenue.Daliiousie Street.\u2014The upper side of the Napoleon wharf has been enclosed by a closely boarded fence, reducing the width of the west eod of Dalhousie street to about nine feet.As there is a telegraph pole at the corner of Sous-le-Fort and Dalhousie streets, it is impossible for a herse and vehicle to pass from the Finlay to the Champlain Market by way of the latter street.The portion of the wharf fenced is private property, but was left open while in possession of the Richelieu Company.The Chouinard estate, which owns the property, asks the city $1,500 a year for the rignt to pass over the part necessary for street widening, or $3,000 for the rental of the whole.The matter came up before the Road Committee, presided over by Councillor J H.Gignae, the night before last-, when upon suggestion of Mayor Parem, it was decided to ask the Lemoine estate h >w much it would cost to widen the street on their side of it at this point, by removing a corner of their building.\u2014 Th* Xorth Awriraa Rtvitw for May opens with an attractive

Guarantees Payment of the Indemnity.London, May 2\u2014In the.H6urè of Com mans to-day, Mr.Wm.P.By les, Liberal-asked the Government if Nicaragua had offer, ed to refer all questions regarding indemnity for\u2019hUege^.Injuries to British subjects, iu-clading the expulsion of British Agent Hatch, to an arbitra,ton commission, and ii so why the Government had declined to accept the proposal.He also asked it the Government of the United States had tendered their good offices or suggested the terms of an amicable arrangement of the difficulty, and whether there was a prospect of such terms being &o cepted.Sir Rtwafd Grey, Under Foreign Secretary, in reply, said that Nicaragua on April 11 'Sent to the British Government a proposal that the trouble be settled by arbitration.He bqiieved that when the papers in the case should be laid upon the table, it would be seen that the matter was not a prnpar subject for arbitration.The United States Government had not tendered their good offices for the settlement of the dispute Her Majesty\u2019s Government h^d reason to believe that the difficulty would be arranged shortly.In teply to a further interrogation on the subject by Mr.A.C.Martin, Liberal, Sir Edward Grey said it was not a proper case for arbitration.The Central News says that Lord Kim berley, in response to enquiries at the Foreign Office this afternoon in regard to the status of the Nicaragua d ispu te, declined to d isenss the purport of the communications received from Nicaragua or from other sources concerning the matter, but it is learned lhat the affair has been settled, England making some slight concessions.The Salvadorian Minister, to whom the Nicaraguan Government has entrusted the management of its differences with Great Britain, haul a long interview with Lord Kimberley at the Foreign Office to-day and subsequently bad a short conference with United States Ambassador Bayard.Later it was reported lhat the dispute was certain to be amicably arranged.New York, May 2\u2014A special from Corinto, Nicaragua, to the World says The British warships have changed position again.It is understood they are to leave upon receiving from Nicaragua a promise to pay the in demnity.The ships had been stationed so as to command the bridges over the lagoons, in order to guard the armed force on store against surprise by the Nicaraguan troops on the mainland, as it was reported an attempt would be made to regain possession of the town.Though the report was derided by the British offijers on land, the men*of*war were shifted as noted.Admiral Stephenson has wire 1 home asking for further instruc lions.He says the concernions rfiade by England indicate that a peaceable solution of the trouble has been reached.A despatch to the Iltrrxlrl from San Juan Del Sur, Nicaragua, says :\u2014The arrest of Casimiro Gonzalez, by the English, charged with intimidating -people from selling provisions to their ships, caused great excitement in Leon and Managua.Rumors were current that the incensed mob would try to attack the town of Corinto.The English doubled their g.i&rd and sent pickets out along the railroad line and raised the rails.After a night of suspense, in the morning 200 marines left the town in the direction of Paso Cabal-los, where the Nicaraguan forces are situated in a well fortified position.Paso Caballos, about four miles from Corinto, is divided by a bridge 500 foet long.Orders have been given to open fire on the English forces should they attempt to pass beyond this bridge.The ladies of Leon and Managua have offered money and jewelry to defend the native cause.Fears are entertained that hostilities may break out at any moment.The Nicaraguans are well fortified at Paro Caballos and can place eight, to ten thousand men at a moments notice.Drs.Jose D.Gosmes and 2.Jose Madrizt Special Commissioners from the Nicaraguan Government, arrived to-day in Carinto and refusing to meet Captain French, Governct of the port, at his office, they were peremptorily ordered to leave the town and not to return under any pretext.The present situation is critical and becoming more strained daily.An open rupture is feared.A Managua, Nicaragua, special to the World says The reported concessions by England are not favorably received by the public.At a meeting of distinguished citizens, presided over by President Zelaya, the speakers seemed inclined to vent their chagrin on the United States, blaming that country for all the trouble.Three hundred more soldiers left yesterday for the Mosquito coast.Fresh instructions have been seul to the Salvadorian Minister in London, who is endeavoring to bring about a pacific settlement.The Government claims to have no officiai knowledge of the United States\u2019 request to England for more time for Nicaragua, and says if such request has been made it is without Nicaragua's authority.It is serni-officiaily stated that Honduras will open a port for Nicaraguan imports, waiving duties collected in favor of Nicaragua.Washington, Maÿ 2\u2014Thé Department of State this afternoon received a cablegram from Ambassador Bayard, staling that Great Britain had accepted the guarantee made by Salvador of payment of tho indemnity by Nicaragua in London within a forthight, and so soon as Nicaragua confirms and so informs che British Admiral, the latter is instructed to leave Corinto.The Nicaraguan Minister, Dr.Guzman, is gratified at the satisfactory termination of the serious dispute between his country and Great Britain.Tho text of Ambassador Bayard\u2019s despatch was shown to Dr.Our.man at the State Department this evening and telegraphed by him to the Minister of Foreign Affairs at Managua.Dr.Guzman says there is no doubt lhat the Zelaya Administration will pay the indemnity in London within 15 days, if the British ships be immediately withdrawn.Nicaragua, he says, is amply able to pay the sum demanded and that no delay will ensue in forwarding the amount to London.Indissoluble Marriage.The Duke ««f Newcastle Makes a.Statement in that Connection.London, May U-The Duke of Newcastle, who is a prominent member of the English Church Union, has written a letter to the Times in connection with the protest made by the Rev.Father Black ut the wedding of Thedore Briockman and a daughter of Lord Aylesford, at St.Mark\u2019s Church, on Saturday last.Mr.Brinckrr.an\u2019s first wife secured a divorce from him last year, aud at the ceremony on Saturday, Father Black created great excitement by reading from the gallery a protest against the Church of England giving its sanction to the marriage of a divorced man.The Duke of Newcastle was present with Father Black during tho reading of the protest, and withdrew with him when it waï found that the clergyman performing the ceremony paid no heed to the objections.In his loiter, tile Duke says that unless the Bisnopi of tin: Churcii of England

was loudly cheered as he rose to announce the Budget and the cheering was repeated and prolonged as he ooneluded the announcement.The revenue for the past year, he said, was estimated at £04,130,000.The actual revenue had been £94,684,000 The expenditures, which had been estimated at £93,884,000, had been £93,918,000.The suplus had been £776,000 against an estimated surplus of £291,000: Sir William Harcourt announced that the estimated expenditures for the coming year would be £95,981,000, and the estimated revenue £95,662,000.The increase in the expenditures over last year was due to the additions to the navy.The deficit of £319,000, as shown by the Budget, must be met, by the imposition of a duty upon spirits or upon beer.The strong objections raised by Irish and Scotch manufacturers of spirits led him to propose the continuation of the duty of sixpence a barrel on beer, which would yield a revenue of £500,000 and cover the estimated deficit.Sir Wm.Harcourt continuing, said that the imports and exports tor the past year had shown, though low prices ruled, that much benefit had been derived by the workingmen.Agricu'tural distress had been keen and labour troubles numerous, yet the general condition was better than during the préviens year.The most gratifying sign of prosperity was the deposits in savings bauks, which in 1890 amounted to a little over £30,000,000.In 1881 they were £31,000,000, in 1882 nearly £33,000.000, in 1893 £35,000,000 and in 1894 £45,500,000 Nothing, he said, better proved the sound financial condition of the country.The Budget passed the first reading wit h« out a division.VI.WWWWWWVI AIDS DI6ESTI0 AND PURIFIES THE BREATH jA.33A.MS' ITUTTI FRUTTI!
