Officiates\u2014British Troops for South Africa\u2014A Double Electrocution at Sing Sing\u2014A Sensational Case in Buffalo.London, April 2^^-In the House of Com mons to-day, Mr.Labouchere asked the Government a number of questions in regard to the Venezuelan dispute.Among them, whether the plan proposed by the United States Government to refer the Venezuela froutier dispute to a Commission composed of two English, two American and one neutral member, had been declined by Great Britain ; whether Venezuela had been excluded from the general scheme of arbitration which Great Britain had submitted to the United States ; whether negotiations betv.ven England and the United Sûtes still continua and whether any agreement is probable before the United States Congress adjourns in May.In reply to these questions, Air.Curzou, Under Secretary for Foreign Affairs, said that .legotiations with the United Slates in regard to Venezuela were still proceeding, but it was not advisable at this time to make any statement ou the subject.Mr.Labouchere asked whether the Government expe-jted a favorable result from the negotiations.Mr.Curzon answered that that was unquestionably the hope of Her Majesty\u2019s Government.Sir William Harcourt said :\u2014\u201cI give notice that I will ask a question upon this subject on Monday next.Mr.Joseph Chamberlain, in reply to questions by Sir Ashmead Bartlett, said that the Transvaal Government had placed strong patrols on the north western and western Mundaries of the territory of the South African Republic to prevent the introduction of the rinderpest into the country.He did not know, he said, how many foreigners who had received a military training had entered the Transvaal since January 1st.The right of allowing German emigrants to enter the Transvaal had never been disputed.Hon.W.S.Broderick, Parliamentary Secretary for the War Office, stated that it was the intention of the Government to send from England further drafts of mounted infantry to Natal.The items of expenseattending this movement, he said, would ap pear in the Estimates.Mr.J.H.Dalziel, Liberal, asked Mr.Chamberlain whether in his speech at the banquet of the Constitutional Club last evening, he had referred to the administration of the Transvaal Government as being corrupt and defective and the subject for just criticism.Mr.Chamberlain admitted having made the statement as facts which were a matter of common report, and had so long been so that he thought it necessary to place on the table of the House the papers neces-sarv to support the charges.The Princess of Wales, cn behalf of the Queen, held a drawing room at Buckingham Palace this afternooo.The weather was perfect and the attendauce unusually large.The Daily Telegraph, in an article appro priate to the day, the festival of St.George, expresses the hope that President Cleveland will put a red rose in the lapel of his coat for the sake of Shakespeare and St.George.In giving both nations the matchless possession of his genius, the paper says, Shakespeare surely intended that no serious and lasting quarrel should ever divide the two kindred peoples, bound so indissolubly together.A detachment of the King\u2019s Royal Rifles, stationed at Dover, and the Irish Rifles, quartered at Brighton, have been ordered to hold themselves in readiness to proceed to South Africa.Paris, April23\u2014The members of the Bourgeois Ministry proceeded this afternoon to the Elysee, the residence of President Faure, and formally tendered their resignations.M.Faure was awaiting their coming and accepted the resignations as soon as they were presented.An unusually large crowd assembled outside the Chamber of Deputies this morning and the galleries were packed with visitors as soon as they were opened to the public.When the sitting of the Chamber was formally opened.Premier Bourgeois read declaration recalling the circumstances of the vote of the Madag.wcar credit», which the Senate refuses to sanction, thus rendering it impossible to make expenditures which are indispensable.Whatever the motives of the Senate may have been, he said, the Cabinet thought that patriotism imperiously commanded that they should subordinate everything to a question of national dignity and security, which no consideiations of home politics ought to overweigh.The Cabinet were, therefore, resolved to make way for another Ministry, though they were not forgetful of their other duties toward the Chamber of Deputies and the Republican nation.The funeral of M.Leon Say, the dis tinguished political economist, took place today and in accordance with his known wishes was remarkable for its simplicity.The ceremony was attended by most of the Ministers, and many Senators and Deputies, a deputation from the Academy, deputations from several leading societies of France and a number of well known financiers, including Baron Alphonse de Rothschild.Cape Town, April 23 -The telegraph lines

announced hie intention to uiakea second marriage, hoping to obtain a male heir and thus exclude the Russian branch of the family from the throue of Oldenburg.Emperor William strongly objects to any one with Russian sympathies being a Sovereign of one of the countries forming his Empire.Buffalo, N.Y., April 23.\u2014 Surrogate Marcus had a sensational case betore him today.Cauadian relatives of Winifred Winters, who died in this city abont a year ago, leaving an estate of $25,000 without a will, made the charge in Court that George A.Winters, the supposed husband of the deceased, is not her husband and never was.They also charge that a supposed daughter, a Mrs.Busch, is not a daughter.Marshall, Clinton and Kelindow represent the Winters, who by law are entitled to the estate if they are the next of kin to deceased.Ex Surrogate Stiou is attorney for the contestants.But little testimony was taken to-day.It was to show that the old man and his daughter are the righiful heirs.A baptismal certificate of the daughter was exhibited.The contestants will endeavor to show that the daughter is illigetimate.An adjournment was taken until next Tuesday to enable the Winters to procure more witnesses.Sing Sing, N.Y., April 23\u2014There was » double execution at the Stale prison this f morning.The victims were Louis P.Herrmann and Charles Pustolka, both of New York, both Germans, and both wife murderers.Herrmann shot and killed his wife during a quarrel on July 17, 1895, and Pustolka stabbed his spouse to death on the 20th August last because he suspected her of infidelity.CANADIAN REPORTS.FIGHTING IN THE SOUDAN.FIVE HUNDRED OF THE KHA-UFA'S BODY GUARD SAID TO HAVE BEEN KILLED IN A REVOLT.YOUNG SPIRITS, a vigorous body and robust strength, follow good health.But ail fail when the vital powers are weakened.Nervous debility and loss of manly power result from bad habits,contracted by the young through ignorance of their ruinous consequences.Low spirits, melancholia, impaired memory, morose or irritable temper, fear of imp» uding calamity and thousand and one derangements of body and mind, result from such pernicious practices.All these arc

symptoms, and cura bility of such disomies, sent on receipt of ti rents in slam\u2019,-.t > prepay po-tage and duty only.Address, Woild's Inspcnsary Medical Association, liullalo, N.Y.\tj Cairo, April 22\u2014Despatches received here to-day from the front say that there has been fierce fighting between the Dervishes at Om-durman, near Khartoum, the headquarters of the Khalifa.It is said that 500 of the Khalifa\u2019s body guard have been killed.Later reporta this afternoon, however, say that beyond an occasional volley at long range the Dervishes are now quiet.Well posted military men are inclined to the belief that the Dervish leaders are preparing for a sadden movement of importance.There has been even greater activity to-day in the pushing forward of troops and supplies to the front, and from remarks dropped here and there it would seem that fighting is expected before long.The friendly Sheik Abdel Azimhas returned to Murad Wells, after having made a demonstration with his horsemen south of the Nile below Hebbeh.He found no traqe of the Dervishes, but he heard that there was a force of them at Abuhama.The work of sending troops to the front, supplying them with food and ammunition, buildiug the strategic railroad and fortifying Ak&sheh, is rapidly progressing.Two weeks after the order to send reinforcements South reached Cairo, on March 14, a smalt army was firmly established at Ak&sheh, about eighty miles, or five days\u2019 march, from Wady-Halfa, hitherto the extreme frontier post.This army consisted of three Soudanese battalions, numbering about 2,500 men ; an Egyptian Camel Corps of some 500 meo, two squadrons of Egyptian cavalry, say 200 men, and a British battery of screw guns.Since then the North Staffordshire (British) Regiment has been seut to Wady-Halfa and three more battalions of Soudanese and six battalions of Egyptians are either there or on their way, with more cavalry, artillery and camel corps.The next point to be occnpied will prob ably be Ferket, but Akasheh must first be completely fortified ami provisioned.Over 4,000 camels are engaged in the work of transportation, in addition to a river fleet.At the bend of the Nile near Akasheh is a commanding fort surrounded by smaller forts.When the British reach Dungola they will have in their rear a line of fortified posts close to the Nile which should insure a safe line of communication with their base of supplies, Akasheh or Wady-Halfa.A hospital with four or five hundred beds will be ready at Wady Haifa, in addition to a moveable hnspiial at Barras ; the regular field hospital with the troops at Akasheh and a smaller field hospital at Ambugnl.The sick and wounded will, w here possible, be taken north in native boats.When this is not possible they will be conveyed on camels equipped ilh padded seats capable of accommoditing one man on each side.War correspondents have famished themselves with two or three baggage camels, a horse, five or six donkeys, a \u201cboy\u201d for the camels, another \"boy\u201d for the horse, a \"boy\u201d for the donkeys, a cook and a man servant, who can also act as interpreter.One or two of the camels are loaded with forage, &c., another carries the tents, bedding, food, &c.The attendants and their tent and baggage are carried on the donkeys.The newspaper men have formed a small column of their own, and they will probably not be allowed to go further south than Wady-Halfa until shortly before the general advance begins, which will probably be about May 1, though it is believed that the real campaign will not begin until the fall.Nobody here believes that the troops will stop at Dongola.Great Britain, it is predicted, will not rest until she controls a railroad line from Egypt to her possessions in South Africa, and it is to lay the first part of this road that the present campaign is undertaken.But Germany is actively working against her in South Africa, aud Russia and France are vigorously intriguing against her in the north and east.The secret aid extended by Russia and France to the Abys-siniana will now be held our to the Khalifa, and it will be regarded as strange if Russian officers in some disguise are not found confronting the Anglo-Egyptian forces in the Soudan, and equally astonishing if German officers are uot even now directing the ar ming, drilling and roriirymg ot cne Boers of the Transvaal.The Intelligence Department of the Bri tish Army has a small army of men at work, scouting' openly or secretly in all directions and transmitting regular reports to head quarters, at Wady-Halfa.Slatin Pacha, the Austrian officer who was a prisoner of the Mahdi at Khartoum or Omdurman for about seventeen years, and who recently escaped from captivity, is attached to the Intelligence Department, aud is rendering very valuable service.His great knowledge of men and thing in the Soudan enables him to thoroughly sift the information brought in, so that when a move southward in force is made it will be with the fullest knowledge obtainable of the strength ami position of the enemy.It Settled the Question.(From Harper's Round Table.) The Colonel was the possessor of a fat colored man who was extremely lazy\u2014so much so that everybody in the town had tried to do something to liven him up.They usually abandoned their effort after a trial.There was quite a gathering at the Colonel\u2019s one afternoon, and the question of the lazy colored mau came up.Finally one of the gentlemen asked leave to experiment, and to gratify him the Colonel sent for his lazy servant.It was sumo time before Sam put in an appearance.When he came, the gentleman addressed him thus : \"Sam, as I was coining up the garden path I noticed several snails dowu near the gate.I want to show these gentlemen some of their peculiarities, so catch one for me, please.\u201d Sam scratched his gray wool and depart ed.The Colonel and his friends smoked and chatted for a long while, and still no Sain and no snail.\"Well, that fellow is really lazy,\u201d sai»l the gentleman w ho had sent him on the quest \"Colonel, would you mind sending for him, and see what on rarth he is doing ?\u201d The Colonel did s j, and Sam entered tlie room.\"Well,\u201d said ti e gentleman, \"did youcateh one of those snails ?\u201d \"Deed no, suh,\u201d replied Sam; \"dey was too powerful qu ek f »\u2019 me.Iso couldn\u2019t catch up w id dem !\u201d 1 That settled the question.MONTREAL'S AN NEXATION SCHEME.DOMINION-PROVINCIAL ARBITRATION, CANADIAN SHOEBURYNESS TEAM.TORONTO FIREMEN INJURED.Archbishop Langevin on the Remedial Bill - The Government Receives Conscience Money \u2014 Railway Arrangements inOntario\u2014A Dastardy Outrage Near Halifax.QUEBEC.Montreal, April 23.- St.George\u2019s Day was obscrv d quietly here to day.Flags flew from the different public buildings and the rose of England was very much in evidence.St.George\u2019s Society held a reception in St.George\u2019s Home this evening.The Court of Appeal this morning dismissed the action of the Meloche heirs to recover from the heirs of the late Sir George Simpron the DovDl Islands, now valued at §100,000.Alderman Prefontaine and other members of the City Conned are inaugurating a movement to bring about the annexation of all the outlying municipalities on the Island of Montreal.The first of a series of special meetings of the Council to discuss the question will be held to-morrow.Lieut.-Colooel Cole, of the Montreal Garrison Artillery, has been appointed to the command of the Shoeburyness artillery team.The appointment was made iu Ottawa and caused widespread satisfaction when it became known in Montreal.The different artillery corps throughout the Dominion have been called upon to send in the names of their representatives to the Executive Committee of the Dominion Artillery Association.Ou J uly 1 those who are to compose the team will meet at Quebec for fifteen days\u2019training, and ou July 15 they will set sail for the Old Country.Lieut.-Colonel Cole was seen by a reporter last night and expressed his conviction that the Canadians would make a creditable showing.It was in 1686, when the last Canadian artillery team competed in England, and at that time they captnred one ot the most important cups.The preseutation of the Governor General\u2019s Cup, won by the second Regiment of the Montreal Garrisou Artillery, for highest general efficiency iu Canada, is to be made on Friday night by the Minister of Militia at the Drill Hall.Col.Prior, M.P., Major Bliss and other officers of the Staff are coming down from Ottawa, and will be present, having accepted the invitation of Lieut.-Col.Cole and the officers of the regiment.A portion of the galleries of the Drill Hall have been reserved that evening for the invited guests, and the balance of the hall will be open to the public.The uow well-known Arbitration Committee in connection with the disputed accounts of the old Province of Canada aud the Domi-uion will resume its sittings at the Court House to day.Among the prominent officials of the arbitration who arrived in town last evening were f Hon.Justice Burbidge, Mr.W.D.Hogg, Q.C., and Mr.L.A.Audette, Ottawa;

very outset Mr.Martin complained that the Accountant of the House had refused to pay his indemnity before prorogation unless he produced a pair.He wanted to know by what right any officer of the House asked him how he was going to vote, for that was what a pair meant.Mr.Speaker explained that full indemnity \u2022ould not be paid under the rule until after prorogation, but upon members pairing they hud been paid on the last day of the session.After some further discussion it was decided to hereafter stand by the rule and pay up only after prorogation.A number of Government bills were put through.The Government accepted an amendment of Mr.Edgar\u2019s to the Atlantia Steamship Bill, providing that the fast line contract could not be entered into until Parliament meets again.On motion to go into Supply, Mr.Davies asked Hon.Mr.Dickey whether the Government intended to refer the Goodwin 1 claim for extras on the Boulanges Canal to the Courts before paying it.Hon.Mr.Dickey\u2019s remarks on a previous occasion had left that impression upon the House, but he thought aflefiaite statement should be forthcoming.Hon.Mr.Dickey said the impression referred to was the one he desired to leave with Parliament.His pi-rsonal fecliugs on the matter were well known, bnt he could not give the pledges asked for.He could not say what his opinion might be until after he had studied the case.Sir Richard Cartwright thought the leader of the House should assure Parliammt that the claim would not be paid until the Courts had adjudicated upon it.Sir Charles Tupper coaid not consent to this.Mr.K Igar then moved in ammdment to the motion to go into Supply, that the House declare the money in this case should not be paid until ordered by the^Courta.Mr.McCarthy said it would never do to allow the Auditor General or the Minister of Justice to be overruled by the Treasury Board and the money paid after Parliament had been dissolved.Unless the pledge of reference to the Courts was given, the Sup ply Bill would not leave the House to-day.After this declaration there was a brief consultation amongst the Ministers and Hon.Mr.Dickey then rose and assured the Hoase that Goodwin would not be paid until the Courts had pronounced upon his claim.Mr.Edgar thereupon withdrew his amendment.In Supply good progress made.On the electric lighting inspection item, Sir Richard Cartwright urged that the inspection fee he reduced to a nominal charge.Hod.Mr.Prior said he would look into the matter.Ou the postal items, Mr.Mullen made a plea for better salarits for village postmasters, while Mr.McSh&ne protested against two cent drop postage in cities.With the exception of a few items which were left over for further explanations, all the Supplementary Estimates were passed.Before the House rose, Hon.Mr.Foster urged that the main Estimates for three months be allowed >.0 pass in order to avoid, if possible, the necessity of Parliament meeting in July, which would be expensive and inconvenient.Sir Richard Cartwright said it was utterly impossible to accede So the request ; it was most unreasonable.Therewith the matter dropped.At three o'clock the House re assembled and at once proceeded to concur in the Sup plement&ry Estimutre Upon the item of $1,000,000 for arms and ammunition, Mr.Kiufret, seconded by Mr.Legris, moved in amendment that the item be not concurred in, but that \u201cthis House regrets that the Gaverumeut, without the authority of Parliament, has entered into contracts for the purchase of arms and equipments to the amount of nearly two million dollars.\u201d The House divided on the amendment, which was defeated by 67 nays to 35 yeas Mr.McCarthy and Mr.Stubbs voted with the Opposition and Hon.Mr.Wallace with the Government.Messrs.Edgar and Campbell objected to the item of $7,600 for deepening the entrauce to the Beauh&rnois Canal.Hon- Mr.Haggart explained that the work had been undertaken at the express re quest of the Board of Trade of Montreal aud the forwarders of the St.Lawrence as a work absolute necessity.Mr.Tarte remarked that he had been late ly in Beauharnois aud had been informed that this expenditure was for political pur poses.¦ Mr.Bergeron pointed out that the work had been mostly performed during the winter, was absolutely necessary and could only be done in winter.Hon.Mr.Haggart corroborated this, lay ing emphasis upon the fact that the portion of work performed was of a nature that could only be done in winter so as not to impede navigation.Mr.Mulock moved that the item be struck out aud the debate went on.Finally Hon.Mr.Haggart arose and said that as the Opposition seemed determined not to allow the item to pass, he would withdraw the item altogether and cast upon the Oppo sition the responsibility of wilfully prevent ing the improvement ofthe St.Lawrence na vigalioir.On the item of $20,000 for enlarging the Lachine Canal, Mr.McShune raised all sorts of objections, claiming that the amount was unnecessary.Sir Donald Smith made an urgent appeal to have the vote put through, but Mr.Mc-Shuue was obdurate and henig backed up by Hon.Mr.Laurier, the vote was reduced to $10,000.The romaimlcr oi tho Supplementary El-timates were concurred in and the Supply Bill passed at six o\u2019clock.Sir Richard Cartwright wanted to know about the next meeting of I\u2019ariiameut, and was informed by Sir Charles Tupper that it was the intention to have the new Parlia- ment meet about the middle of July, to which Sir Richard Cartwright rejoined that the elections should have been brought on a week earlier, as the Government would heve trouble enough getting on without Supplies in the meantime.At the evening session, five private bills, including the Chignecto Ship Railway Bill, were withdrawn and the fees ordered to be refunded.Business over, Mr.Bergeron brought up the matter of the commutation of tho sentence of Valentine Short is, upon which Mr.J.Israel Tarte is making his campaign in Beauharnois.The Deputy Spsaker, to place himself right with his constituents, reviewed the whole circums ances of the case and read letters to show that he was anything but favorable to the commutation, although Mr.Tarte was endeavoring to prove the coatrary in Beauharnois.Hon.Mr.Laurier made reply by attacking the Government for having gone back upon the position taken in regard to the sentence of Riel.Hon.Mr.Dickey pointed out the inconsistency of both accusing the Government of failing in their duty by not advising His Excellency and charging the Government with responsibility for His Excellency\u2019s action.The responsibility wae one, however, which the Government fully accepted.While Mr.Davies was ou his feet attacking the Government with might and main, rap went Black Rod\u2019s gavel on the door and the Sergeant-at-Arms stepped forward to announce him.But Mr.Davies kept on talking.He was bound to get in the last word and would have succeeded but that his remarks were replied to briefly by the Minister of Justice, against whom they were directed.Then came the summons to the Senate, when ihe final scene of the Sixth Session of the Seventh Parliament was enacted.SENATE.Ottawa, April 23\u2014The Senate met at noon to-day and disposed of a number of bills pass ed by the Lower House.On the second reading of an Act respecting the Senate and House of Commons, allowing members to lie paid their indemnity for twelve absent days during the session, Senator Power thought it highly discreditable that a bill of this kind should be passed every tession.If it is thought desirable that members should receive their indemnity for twelve days during the session when they were absent, permanent legislation should be enacted to that effect.He also thought au amendment should be made to the law, preventing memoers who attend only a few sittings during a session from drawing a large portion of their indemnity.The bill was passed through its various stages and fiually disposed of, as was also a bill respecting the Montreal au 1 Province RailwayJCompany.On the second reading of a bill incorporating the Manitoba Millers\u2019 Association, Senator Boulton objected to the legislation as incorporating a monopoly.The bill was read a second and third time.When the Senate re-assembled at three \u2019clock there was an interesting discussion on the bill to empower the Governmeut to advance to the Montreal Harbor Commissioners $2,000,000.Sir Mackenzie Bowell explained that the object of the bill was simply to enable the Harbor Commissioners to fund their debt at lower rate of interest and to provide funds for the projected improvements to the harbor.Instead of paying five and six per cent interest, the Harbor Commissioners by this arrangement would be able to obtain money at three and a half per cent.Senator Drummon 1 pointed out that this bill was not an assault upon the public treasury.It was simply a method whereby the Harbor Commissioners would be able to obtain cheap money.The debentures of the Montreal Harb r Commissioners were a good investment and the interest was always promptly paid.Senator Power wanted to know if the sani tary condition of the harbor would be attended to in the improvements proposed.Senator Drummond had been a close observer for more than fifteen years and it was all nonsense to say that the construction of the guard pier had prejudicially affected its sanitary coudition.He thought the city was in duty bound to extend the sewer, which now emptied into the still water basin, out beyond the end of the wharves, where the current would carry away the sewage.Senator DeBoucherville thought that if it was necessary to extend the sewer there must be something in the contention that) the construction of the guard pier had affected the sanitary condition of the h&rbor.t\u2019e deprecated the statements which had been made by one of the most respected physicians of Montreal being characterized as nonsense.Senator Drummond pointed out that no complaints had beeu made about the sanitary conditiou of the harbor until last year, when the extremely low water uncovered several rocks which had always been covered with water in previous years.Tne complaint was mads last year by the Allan Steamship Co n-pany that there was an offensive smell from the water in one of the slips or basins between the wharves, into which the sewer emptied.This could bo remedied by extending the sewer out to the end of the wharf.Senator DeBoucherville suggested that a Commission should be appointed to enquire into the sanitary condition of the harbor.Senator Villeneuve had been a member of the Board of Harbor Commissioners for eight years and had never heard of complaints of this kind until last year.Tho complaints were owing to the smell caused by the low water.The bill was read *» second and third time, as was also & bill respecting the Montreal Turnpike Trust Company.On the second reading of the Bill respecting Ocean Steamship Subsidies, Senator Scott trusted that now the ImpcrialGovernmeut had promised aid that the fast Atlantic line would soon be established.The treaty with France had stimulated the export trade iu woodsandV it was honed that & further trade would be developed in butter and cheese.He was in favor of a direct line of steamships to France so that this trade might be stimulated by coming in under the minimum French tariff.Senator Angers pointed out thac in the proposal to subsidize a fast Atlantic service there was a condition that the steamships should call at a French port.He trusted that now, when a subsidy of $50,000 was being given for a direct line to France, that toe condition with regard to the fast Atlantic rvice would be expuuged from the pro pis&l.Senator Drummond had always thought that the coudition compelling tha vessels to call at a Franch port was an unworkable one.He thought that an eighteen knot an hour sirvicewas good enough for Canada, as it would enable vessels from Liverpool to reach Montreal iu about the same time as the fast American steamships made the trip from Liverpool to New York.Senator \\V00d hoped that a condition would be placed in the ooutraot for a new fast Atlantic service that the terminus on this side of the water should be a Canadian port all the year round.He did not think that a subsidized line of steamships should be allowed to run for ^ny part of the year to an American port.Sir Mackenzie Bowell was astonished at the statement of Senator Drummond that an eighteen kuot an hour service was good enough for Canada.He believed that we should have vessels as fast and as good in every way as the ocean greyhounds plying to New York.If we could not have that he thought the sub sidy would be wasted, as the main object of the fast line was to capture from the Ameri can lines the traffic to the great North-West of America and such entrepott as Chicago, by saving twenty-four hours over the vessels running to New York.In fact he had strongly favored a twenty-three knot service in the hope that the regular service would be twenty or twenty-one knots.He trusted that before the next Parliament died Canada would have a service equal to or better than that of the United States.One of the con ditions in any contract for a fast line would be that the vessels should ruu from a port in England to a port in Canada and nowhere else.The Canadian terminus would be Halt fax, with the option to the contractors to call at St.John, Quebec or Montreal.Senator Desjardins, answering Senator Angers, said that the condition in the contract for a fast line to call at a French port would be removed.Speaker Ross called the attention of the Government to the calamity many districts in Quebec were suffering from iu consequence of the spring floods on the St.Law-icnce.These floods were now of yearly occurrence and did an immense amount of damage.This year they were more disastrous than they over were before.Srnie years ago the Government had ordered an investigation into the causes with a view to the suggestion of a remedy for these iuunda lions, hut nothing had come of the investigation.He hoped the Government w ould order another investigation with a view to flnding some remedy for the disastrous yearly calamity in the sha[e of destructive Hoods, S.r Mackerzie Bowell appreciated the Importance of the matter and said it was a matter for consideration as to how far the Government could go.He was in favor of any scheme which would prevent these disastrous Hoods if it could he accomplished at a reasonable cost.He would bring the matter to the attention of his colleagues with a view to having the Department of Public Works make a scientific examination into the causes with a view to finding some practical method of averting the floods.Ihe Senate then adjourned during pleasure and re assembled again at half-past five, when Sir John Carling, M.P.for Loudon, was introduced by Sir Frank Smith and Sir Mackenzie Bowell and sworn in as Senator.Mr.Temple, M.P.for York, N B., was introduced by Sir Mackenzie Bowell and Senator Desjardins and was sworn in as a Senator.Shortly before 8 o\u2019clock the * Supply Bill came up from the House of Commons and was passed by the Senate in a few moments, and the last work of tho session was concluded a few minutes before the arrival of the Governor-General.The closing scenes in the Senate Chamber this evening attracted a good deal of public attention.The attendance of ladies on the floor was unusually large, considering the fact that the ceremonies took place in the evening.The galleries were fairly well crowded and the interest manifested in the proceedings was unusually great, owing, no doubt, to the extraordinary nature of the session and the fact that the session was the last of the Parliament.His Excellency, accompanied by Lady Aberdeen and his staff, arrived at the Senate shortly after eight o\u2019clock, and proceeded at once to the Chamber.The Usher of the Black Rod summoned the faithful Commoners.Nearly all the members of the Cabinet were present.Sir Mackenzie Bowell, Sir Adolphe Caron and Hon.Mr.Daly wore court uniform.Sir Charles Tupper was attired in morning dress.His Excellency then delivere 1 the foilowing Speech from tho Throne and assented to the following bills :\u2014 SPEECH FROM THE THRONE.lion Gentlemen of the Senate : Gentlemen of the House of Commons .- I am glad to be able to relieve you from further attendance on Parliament.I desire to express my regret that

you have endowed the Commissioners appointed under the Behring Sea Claims Convention will, I trust, facilitate the investigation of that tribunal and hasten a just settlement of these long standing claims.Gentlemen of the House of Commons : I have to thank you for the supplementary provision you have made for carrying on the services of the current year.Hon.Gentlemen of the Senate :

Three\u2019\u2014The Quebec correspondent of the Canadian Military (Jazetlt, who signs \u201cPatrol,\u201d is responsible for the following caustic paragraph \u2022 More care should be bestowed by officers on their dress, and not masquerade in the streets in a semi-state of mufti and uniform, as seen during the past week.No less than three were so dressed, with civilian overcoat and hat, the former open and showing tunic, and with regimental trousers.This Is more to be wondered at owing to the fact that they formed Ct of the School of Instruction which has n in session here for three months, and who are now going throngh their examina lions.Commanding officers should visit such exhibitions with severity, not only in the interests of their particular corps, but of that of the militia in general.No little discredit is placed upon the force when officers think so little of the Service as to pay no at tention to dress.\u201d Corporation Contracts.\u2014At the last meeting of the Road Committee it was decided to recommend the purchase of the Ro chette property for the extension of Bun-aventure street to St.Sauveur at a price of $2,000.A number of contracts were awarded, Mr.Ignace Bilodeau got those for unbroken stone at $5 ; part of those for stone sidewalks and iron brick crossings and stone paving ; the other part being given to Mr.Frs.Parent, Beauport ; broken stone from Cap Rouge, aod macadam, Mr.Parent obtaining the contracts for these materials from Beauport, and gulley wells.The contract for smithy work was given to Mr.J.B.Pelletier ; for sustaining walls, to Chas.Coté & Co.; for coal oil, to A.E.Vallerand, and for nails, to Mr.C.A.Parent for the greater part, Messrs.Chinic and Messrs.Young obtaining the rest.Mr.Tierney got the contract lor sand at 23 cents per yard, and that for planks was divided among Messrs.A.A.Rheaume, O.Beaubien, A.E.Hookes and J.D.Brown.Boston Orchestra.\u2014Very soon, now, we will have the chance of having among us the forty-five artists who form the famous Boston festival Orchestra.The Academy of Music will ring with the lovely music which will be performed, Thursday and Friday next, by that orchestra.The elaborate programmes for these two performances are now at the disposal of the public at A.Lavigne\u2019s music and piano warcrooms, 55 Fabrique street.We advise oar readers to get a copy of the pro-grammes, read them throngh, and realize by themselves the excellence and magnitude of these artistic festivities.Master-works of the greatest compoters, completely unknown to our citizens, will be performed with such perfection as to render them easily intelligible to every one, the uneducated as well as the educated listener.And what deep enjoyment of refined character for all present ! The Academy of Music shoulrkbe half too small to hold the people who should gather within its walls on such an occasion.Speaking of this orchestra, the Montreal Herald says :\u2014\u201cThe Boston !\u2022 estival Orchestra is beyond criticism.They are so good that it would be a long story to speak of them individually, but a finer one could not be wished for.\u201d ~Three striking contributions to the May Adamic are the opening number of a series of letters from Dante Gabriel Rossetti to Wil-ham.Allingham, ably edited by George Birk-b-.ck Hill, with a delightful autobiographical sketch of Allingham ; Kepdric Charles Babcock s discussion of The Scandinavian ( ontingent, being the third paper in the series on race characteristics in American hfe ; and an anonymous paper on Mr.Ulney\u2019s fitness for the Presidency.An out-door flavor is given to this issue by Mrs Olive Thorne Miller\u2019s Whimsical Ways in Bird Land, another of her bird papers which have won for her a wide reputation as an acute observer and graceful writer, and Pandeau Pastimes, an out-door study of Spring from a child\u2019s standpoint, by Mrs.Fanny Bergen.Other features are a discriminating Japanese sketch by Lafc-adio Hearn, A Trip to Kyoto, Mrs.Rose Hawthorne Lathrop\u2019s Memories of Hawthorne, concluded.The Preservation of our Game, by Gaston Fay, aod the teaching of Economies, by J.Laurence Laughlin.Fiction is represente 1 by a further install ment of Henry James\u2019s The Old Things, and a striking one part story of western life by Mary Hallock Foote, entitled Pilgrim Sta-tion.Poems, book reviews, and the usual deportments complete the issue.SPORTING NEWS.0.STM ALLAN\u2019S BICYCLING LETTER- MÏHTREAL BICYCLISTS COMMA TO QUEBEC.HALIFAX SUMMER CARNIVAL.MONTREAL SPORTING NOTES.THE BICYCLE.f From Our Special Correspondent.) We have been enjoying glorious cycling weather up this neck of the woods and as a consequence the whirl of the wheels has been heard in the land.The business end of the sport is also booming to an extent that delights the heart of the manufacturer and agent alike.The demand for wheels is increasing every day and the cry of famine has already gone abroad.Those who ordered their mounts early are now enjoying them and those who would not take good advice are in the dumps.The indications are that club runs are going to be very popular this season.Not the kind that were in vogue last season, but the easy going, enjoyable .runs that all can take part in.The days of the scorcher are gone, be it hoped forever.Applications for 24th of May Meets are frequent and ye festive circuit chaser will have a score or more places to choose from.All programmes, of course, will include races for the pures aud pros, with gold for the latter and tin cups or medals for the former.A feature of this year\u2019s Meets will be that suggested by C W.Wells, of Waterloo, the mixing in of other attractions with the races.Promoters have decided that the average person would like a little variety to the afternoon\u2019s entertainment.While Quebec aud Peterboro were fighting for tne honor of entertaining the C.W.A.on the 1st of July, the wheelmen of Victoria, B.\tC., were busily engaged in running off the first roadFace of the season, a fifteen mile event that drew a large crowd of people and created a great deal of interest.The sport is flourishing with our far western friends, and they are making a big pash with the intention of patting in a bid for the Meet themselves at no distant date.The success of Quebec has inspired them and a spirited fight between Winnipeg and Victoria is among the possibilities of 1898.Such a statement a few years ago would have been laughed at, but to day it is accepted as calmly as it is given and goes to show what a great leveller of distances the bicycle is.I hope to attend a Meet in Victoria some day, and a C.\tW.A.annual Meet at that, and I also expect to see the day when we will all go to St.John or Halifax, with the fixture.And this is no idle dream.The .reorganization of the Century Road Club is a go and by the time this reaches the reader the whole matter will be settled.Mr.A.E.Walton, chief centurion, writes me that the meeting was called for the evening of the 24th, last evening, at the Toronto Athletic Club.For the time being we are to have but two classes of racing men, amateurs and professionals, without any belwixtsor betweens.It was thought at first that the Racing Board would exercise their function and divide the pros, but they decided otherwise and cyclists are now where they were in the beginning, before that brilliant scheme of Class B was evolved.By the way I see by that extremely American paper, the American Wheelman, that Canada may be justly accused of plagiarism of L.A.W.ideas in adopting the two classes ; just as though there were not amateur and professional athletes before the L.A.W.t or the United States of America either for that matter, were ever thought of.Mr.R.Garland, of the Dunlop Tire Co., is giving a trophy for competition in Manitoba and the North-West similar to their road race in Ontario and is endeavoring to prevail upon Secretary Dooly and Mr.Geo.H.Orr to accompany him to the West to add eclat to the occasion.Dr.Balfonr, of London, is already laying his lines for the Presidency in \u201997.As Chairman of the Membership Committee, he is in a good position to further his pet scheme, and he is out with a letter to the members U-ging them to boom the C.W.A during C\u2019-e present year as it has never been boomed before.We will all do that right enough, but I am thinking there are some of the memlters who will look to the East for the President next year, instead of to \u201cLunnon in the blooming woods.\u2019 Now that the Quebec boys have had time to recover from their exertions and other things incidental to the Good Friday fight, it is about time they weie sending some of their descriptive literature up this way.I fancy many of the Ontario members are in the same position as myself, a little huzy as to this year\u2019s meeting place.Of course we all know that it is \u201cthe Gibraltar of America\u201d and \u201cone of the show places of the world\u201d and that we \u201csee Athens and die and Quebec and live,\u201d for didn\u2019t Duke Van Felson tell us all about that, but there are some other things that would be interesting and these should be scattered broadcast throughout the length and breadth of the land.It may be presumptuous for me to offer advice to those hustlers, who were capable of making the fight they did, with such a grandstand finish, but it is a way I have and I can\u2019t get over it.\u2019Tisu\u2019t my fault ; it\u2019s the way I was brought up.This will be ladies\u2019 yefir lo cycling world unless all signs fail.It\u2019s the same wherever you go.The fair ones are taking to the wheel all over the country and where there was one lady rider last year there will be a dozen or more this year.That the horse is still with us was evidenced by the splendid success of the Toronto Korse Show last week, when' the noble \u201cfour hundred \u2019* and hundreds of others not so noble, turned out in all thetr glory to see the equine beauties.But the most of them were there simply because it was the thing to go, aud it is safe to say that the majority of them were lovers of the silent steed and what is more to the point riders as well.These be quiet times in cycling affairs.\u2019Tis true the wheel is seen gaily flitting to and fro but it is rather early for much activity among the riders, while the pushers of the Association have not yet fully perfected their plans for the season\u2019s work.We are having truly April weather, sunshine and showers, but we know that \u201cApril showers bring May flowers,\u201d and that the kind of weather we are having now will ensuie good roads for the long summer months to come.Simcoe, Ont.\tC.Stan Allen.(No doubt Mr.Stan Allen\u2019s suggestion respecting descriptive literature will receive prompt attention at the hands of the local Committee.But no visiting bicyclist should be without a copy of \u201cChambers\u2019 Guide to Quebec,\u201d which is described in Baedeker\u2019s Canada as the best local guide book of the city and its environs.The new 1896 edition will shortly be issued from the Chronicle steam printing establishment, and will be sent by mail, post-paid,on receipt of 25 cents.\u2014Editor Chronicle ) MONTREAL BICYCLISTS PREPARING FOB QUEBEC.Montreal, April 23\u2014 Montreal bicycle men are cudgelling their brains to devise means to attend the C.W.A.Bicycle Meet ou July 1st.Every bicyclist in Montreal has set his heart on attending, but of course there will be some disappointments.The attendance from this cry alone, however, can be put at 500 on a very conservative estimate.The idea that seems to meet with the most favor here is that of chartering the \u201cCanada\u201d or some other such boat and making a big excursion trip of it.If the weather proves favorable it is also possible that some experienced riders will wheel the distance either one or with ways.Cycling is now iu pretty full swing hero.Most of the streets are bare aud there will be easy access to any part of the city on a wheel by tl.eend of the week.Some of the country roads will, however, bj rather impassible for some days.MONTREAL SPORTING NOTES.Montreal, April 2\u2018t\u2014Tim Montreal Lacrosse Clubs are seriously thinking of taking down their sticks now and w ill soon be hard at practice.The baseball men are following suit and the fooball players are talking of a series uf spring games.They would undoubtedly prove extremely interesting and should draw well.A LESSON TO ALL WHEELMEN.Under this heading the Toronto Mail and Empire, says \u201ci\u2019he death of young Crowley on Saturday night, sad though it is to his relatives and all who knew him, affords a lesson to every bicycle rider in 'Toronto.Sam Crowley was a younger brother of Frank Crowley, the favorably-known local racing man.He was an enthusiastic wheelman, but usually was very cautious when riding on the streets.When on Tuesday night last he spurted along Roxborough street, that thoroughfare apparently was deserted, and Crowley undoubtedly was under the impression that such was the case.But, as often happens, another rider, going in an opposite direction, loomed up out of the darkness, and though the latter was not speeding, the collision occurred before either could avoid it.While every wheelman in Toronto will regret the death of young Crowley, and evince sympathy for his immediate relatives, not one but will Lave borne upon him forcibly the danger of fast riding on the streets of the city.\u201d HALIFAX SUMMER CARNIVAL.The Summer Carnival at Halifax, the last week in July, will be under the patronage of Admiral Erskine, commanding H.M.North American Fleet, General Montgomery-Moore, commanding H.M.Forces in British North America and Governor Daly.The following will be included in the programme : \u2014 Tuesday, July 28th, afternoon\u2014Pair of single scull $750, man-of-war cutters, amateur four-oared, whalers and

militia cutters.Pair of four oared lap streaks, army aud navy gigs.Evening\u2014Athletic and bicycle sports by electric light.Thursday Afternoon, July 30th\u2014Horse races, splendid attractions.Evening\u2014Grand harbor illumination, procession of boats, warships illuminated, fire-works, bon fires on shores, search-lights, Ac.Friday Afternoon\u2014Yaoht races.Pair of four-oared

the United States and Canada will take part and several English and Australian oarsmen are expected to compete.Halifax is the headquarters of the naval and military forces in British North America and has many points of interest to visitors.The railway aud steamship lines will givecheap rates to the Carnival.Further information gladly supplied by R.I.Mic-Ilreith, Secretary, P.0.Box 303, Halifax, N.S.YACHTING.Glasgow, April 23 -^The United Press learns that the new racing cutter now building in the yards of Henderson Bros., on the Clyde, concerning which there has been so much mystery, is being constructed for Emperor William of Germany, and will be called the \u201cMeteor.\u201d The new boat will be sailed by Richard Allan, whose brother sailed the Herreschoff ten rater \u201cDakotah.\u201d A FEW POINTS ON CYCLING.Did yon ever have the older pattern cranks loosen when riding along the road \u2019 Did yon ever get your hands dirty driving the key home and tightening the nut, unless it was lost ?Did you ever get a crank from the manufacturer to replace ai broken one, that when put on and the machine moved around, struck the rear fork tube, when the old crank you had at first cleared it at least & quarter of an inch ?Did you find the pedal, when screwed in this same crank, in perfect Una with the crank shaft ?Or, in fact, did the crank go on at all without filing the axle just a little so you could drive it on without a sledge ?There are so many separate pieces and so many machine shop operations on each piece in the old method of constrnc-tion that it is almost impossible to avoid variation, unless very much more carefully made than is generally the case in most factories.The very part in which the most variation is likely to occur is the fit of the cranks on the crank shaft and of the keys in the keyways made for them, also the alignment of the cranks.Welland Vale Bicycles have one piece cranks and axles and save all this trouble.Samples on
