estimate how the Canadian wheat crop of 1883 will compare with those of preceding years, it is beyond peradventure that the prospects are obviously discouraging.Letters from well attested sources of information at various points in the winter wheat raising districts of Ontario bespeak an eminently unsatisfactory outlook, some of which are so lugubrious in tone as to estimate the probable yield at 50 per cent.less than in 1882.Travellers just returned from the west corroborate in no small degree these gloomy forebodings and state that the wheat crop along the lines of railway has a sickly look.Farmers have beez compelled to plough up no unconsiderable percentage of the acreage sown, and in the remainder the growth has been kept back to an exceptionally large extent by the cold and backward season, which has given only téo good grounds for predictions of a poor crop.Certainly fine weather may greatly imvrove the outlook and save a total failure, but that material damage has been done is the most favourable conclusion to be drawn from the information now available.But it has been definitely ascertained that farmers are disposed to hold back what wheat remains on their hands until the crop question is settled one way or the other.Respecting the effect on the market here, nothing can yet be said, but in the west there is, undeniably, a widespread determination among holders and millers to enhance the cost of wheat and flour for the reasons mentioned, and they refuse to avail themeelves of any opportunities to sell, except when offered full prices.Whether the crop will be a failure or not, is at present a matter of conjecture, but the facts we have stated.are worth the consideration of all parties in the trade.CHE INMAN STEAMSHIP COMPANY.The following letter

\u201cIonic,\u201d the newest steamer of the White Star Line, of which fine vessel a full description appeared in the Liverpool Courier a short time back.The Royal visit took lace on Monday afternoon, lee \u201cIonic,\u201d Capt.E.O.Hailett, R.N., lying in the the Royal Albert Dock, London, His Royal Highness, attended by the Hon.Tyrwhitt Wilson, arrived alongside the steamship at half past four o\u2019clock, by special train from Liverpool street.He was received by Capt.Hallett, Mr.Cotter, Chairman of the New Zealand Shipping Company ; Mr.Studholme and Pare wortny, directors; Mr.Strickland, London manager of the same company ; and Mr.T.H.Ismay, managing director of the Oceanic Steam Navigation Company.The \u201cIonic,\u201d though the latest addition to the White Star Line, has been chartered by the New Zealand Shipping Company, to form one of the line of steamers which they are now despatching from London direct to New Dealand every month.The \u201cIonic\u201d was built by Messrs.Harland and Wolff, of Belfast.She is 440 feet long, 44 feet broad, 32 feet deep, with a gross registered tonnage of 5,000; her engines, also manufactured by Messrs.Harland and Wolff, are of 3,000 horse-power effective.The Prince made a close inspection of the vessel, paying special attention to the engine and refrigerating department.His Royal Highness congratulated Captain Hallett in having command of so fine a vessel, and one so perfectly fitted in every particular, -_\u2014\u2014.,\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 rte PRODUCE AND PROVISIONS.MoNTREAL, May 10 FLOUR\u2014No event calculated to divert the flour market in either direction, or to positively change the situation, has occurred in the flour market, which continues quiet and steady.The prospective outward movement to Gulf ports and the other side will be of large dimensions, and stocks in store at the end of the week will probably show a diminution if receipts do not increase.At the same time attention may be directed to promised larger receipts next week, especially of superior and extra, but as these grades are comparatively scarce here, no inconvenience is anticipated by receivers, with a few exceptions.Demand to-day was fairly active at fully maintained prices.Several good sized lots of superiors changed hands at $5 @ $5.05, or at prices somewhat better than holders talked of yesterday.On \u2019Change the

butter have not greatly increased, the market, nevertheless, has fallen back, partly owing to consignments of old from Boston, from whence more shipments have been advised and a less active demand.Western rolls of medium quality have been received in larger quantities and have tended to divert the demand from other butter, for which lower prices now prevail.For the best packages 24c is all that can be counted on, at which figure sales are freely made.We quote 22c@24c.CHEESE\u2014The movement has not increased and the market keeps an exceedingly quiet appearance.Sales to the local

among the workmen over the Union.The members of the society refused to work with those who were not members, hence the trouble.A meeting of the Union took lace Wednesday evening, when a num- r of non-Union men applied for admission.After a lengthy discussion, they were admitted without being obliged to pay the $5 fine previously imposed.It is therefore, expected that they will all return to

brought before the Police Magistrate yesterday on three different charges, for breaking open a door, for carrying a revolver, and for attempting to shoot.From the evidence given at the trial, it appears that Bergeron went home Wednesday night in a state of Intoxication, and his wife seeing him coming locked the door and refused to admit him.Being enraged at this, Bergeron went to a neighbour\u2019s house, and procuring an axe, commenced an attack upon the door and finally gained an entrance.His wife.more frightened than ever, locked herself in an inner room, while the neighbours, hearing the row, sent for the police.Constables McNulty and Carroll hastily went to the spot, where they found Mr.Mercier, the well-known bailiff of the Superior Courf, Mr.Mercier began to tell the constables about Bergeron\u2019s conduct, when the latter drew a revolver from his pocket and placing it at Mr.Mercier\u2019s stomach pulled the trigger.Officer McNulty, however, made a snatch at the revolver and caught it, his thumb by good luck coming between the cartridge and the hammer.The weapon was taken away from the would-be assassin and was found to be a new seven chambered revolver with all the barrels loaded with No.33 cartridges.When searched at the Police Station a full box of cartridges was found on the prisoner.The prisoner for the breaking of the door was ordered by the Police Magistrate to pay damages of $1.50 4nd a fine of $20 or two mouths, and for the other chirges was remanded.Bergeron is a notorious charactër and was only liberated from gaol a few days ago.Mr.Mercier is very gratefnl to the constable who, he i8 satisfied, saved his life.Especially fine lot of spring overcoatings L.Robinson\u2019s, 31 Beaver Hall Terrace.THE LATE EDWARD MACKAY, HIS

chair), Laurent, Brown, Genereux, Mooney and His Worship the Mayor.Afler the minutes of the last meeting were read and confirmed.The Chairman stated that the first order of the day was to consider the report of the Road Committee concerning the permanent paving of certain streets in the city of which we have already made mention.His Worship the Mayor stated that he hoped the Finance Committee would not conour in this report, as the streets named in the report were about to be widened and that, therefore, there was no need of laying new flagstones \u2018n those streets, and he further stated that with regard to the paving of the middle of the streets that the corporation had no block stone which would answer the purpose except a certain kind, which would have to be imported from Seotland and at a great price.He said that the Road Committee were about to expend about $175,000 pou the widening of St.Joseph street, 3t.Mary and St.Lawrence streets,while other streets were more in need of being paved.Ald.Laurent stated that with regard to the places where the present paving stones were about to be laid the streets were not going to be widened in those parte, and that perhaps the widening of the streets would not be done for 15 or 20 years to come.His Worship the Mayor thought it would be well and satisfactory to all to impose a certain tax yearly on the proprietors on St.Lawrence Main street for the paving and widening of the street, until the whole amount would be paid.Ald.Grenier stated that he fully concurred with the opinion of the Mayor with regard to St.Lawrence Main street, and further stated that there were several other streets in the city that needed to be paved more than the streets named in the report, for instance he referred to St, Paul and Commissioners\u2019 streets, which would not be widened for some.time at least, and wére in néed of \u2018te-paving more than any other street.He finally stated that with regard to the thoroughfares he named that something ought to be done and done as soon as possible.Ald.Mooney wae in favour of paving St.Lawrence Main street on account of the great amount of traffic now carried on in that street and, stated that the widening would not take place for 5, 10, or 15 years yet and that, in the meantime, it needed paving.Ald.Brown agreed with the Chairman in stating that St.Paul and Commissioners\u2019 street needed paving more than any other street.Ald.Laurent moved concurrence in the report of the Road Committeehe Chairman stated he hoped the committee would consider the report well before adopting it, and he objected to adopting the streets named in the report.Ald.Laurent thought that this statement showed a want of confidence in the Road Committee, and stated that if there were any other streets in need of paving, that he would be satisfied to look after them.His Worship the Mayor thought it would be well to refer back the report to the Road Committee for their re-consideration.Ald.Brown moved in amendment to Ald.Laurent\u2019s motion, that St.James, St.Paul, Craig and Commissioners streets be paved, and that # of the cost be paid by the proprietors.The amendment was carried by.the casting vote of the chairman, Ald.Laurent and Moonuey voting no and Ald.Genereux aud Brown voting yes.The Chairman then took up the second order of the day, which was a letter from the Sheriff concerning the appointment.of Mr.Richard as Bailif, The Sheriff also submitted a claim of $7,963 for the support of lunatics.The Chairman stated for the information of the Mayor his opinion with regard tothe services of Mr.Richard as bailiff; and further remarked that now the Sheriff had eleven bailiffs under his control, and that Mr.Richard would now only get one case out of eleven, de he would have to take his turn.The Committee finally resolved that the Treasurer and the Chairman be instructed to communicate with the Sheriff concern- mg the bailiffs\u2019 letters.A report was then read from the Road Committee, in which that Committee sought to rectify an error in regard to the widening of Inspector street.After a short discussion, the Committee resolved to approve of the Road Committee\u2019s report.THE GRAND TRUNK QUESTION, A letter was then read from Mr.Hickson, in regard to the Grand Trunk Railway question, which was as follows :\u2014 To Chas.Glackmeyer, Esq., City Clerk, Montreal: SIRr,\u2014I had the honour to receive, on the 20th ultimo, your communication of the same date addressed to me by order of the Finance Committee of the city.Before referring to the proposition contained in the resolution passed at the meeting of the Finance Committee on the 26th, I desire to thank the members of that Committee for the consideration given to the matter referred to in your letter.The last paragraph of the resolution passed by the Committee, stipulating that the Grand Trunk Company shall hold itself responsible in the sum of three hundred thousand dollars to be paid to the city in case of a failure to erect a passenger statlon creates a difficulty, for the simple reason that it is not competent for the Directors of the Company to enter into such an engagement, it being beyond their powers ag trustees for the proprietors of the railway.I would respectfully suggest for the consideration of the Committee and the Council that the exchange of the stock certificates of the St.Lawrence & Atlantic Company, now held by the city, for ordinary stock certificates of the Grand Trunk Company for $100,~ 000 be at once made.That the said certificates be held \"by the city on the understanding that if the Company shall erect at Bonaventure street a passenger station, before the end of 1885, the cost of securing which and the requisite facilities connected therewith shall amount to not less than $300,000, the said stock certificates for $400,000 shall be surrendered to the Company.If tt would be more agreeable to the Committee and the Council to have the stock certificates at once sold, I think it can be arranged to find a purchaser for them at $100,- 000.In the event of this course being adopted it would be expected that the city would hand over to the Company the said $100,000 with interest, on the fompletion of the station in the terms stipulated.I submit these proposals entirely without rejudice to the company\u2019s legal rights should Æhoey.not pe accepted.Should they be acceptable to the Committee and Council, I.shadl be prepared to at gnee recommend them to the acceptance of the Directors of the Grand Trunk Company.: I gm, Sir, our obedient servant, J.HICKSON.General Manager.Ald.Grenier stated to the Committee ' that-Ald.Laurent and himself had a conference with Mr, Hickson, at which it was understood perfectly that the station would be erected on the old site, and not further west.Hg regommended to the inance Comfniftee that they make a report to Council recommending the acceptation of Mr.Hickson\u2019s proposal.The Company to pay the city $100,000 cash, and to erect a new station by the end of 1885, at which time the city will reimburse that sum without interest.The Chairman also stated to the Committee that he had another proposition to lay before them, which was made to him confidentially by Mr.Hickson.He then requested the members of the Press to retire, and the remainder of the meeting was of a private nature.At the conclusion of the meeting, however, we learned from the Chairman that the question was still in statu quo, the | next Wednesday, May 16th.Chairman, Ald.Brown and laurent b:ing appointed to hold another couference with r.Hickson on the question.THE CITY OF MONTREAL AND G T R To the Editor of the MONTREAL HERALD: SIrn,\u2014 Your neighbour the Gazette has a leader this morning upon the city\u2019s.claim upon the G.T.R.and very strongly advocates the case of the latter.Without discussing the question in a legal point of view, he: doubts the validity of the city\u2019s \u2018 alleged \u201d claim in law, or that it could be coliected \u2018\u2018 even if a judgment should be obtained \u201d Those who have followed this discussion are aware that legal men have pronounced the claim of the city perfectly good, and it has been stated that a judgment has been obtained; at the same time, Mr.Hickson denies that the city has any claim whatever upon the G.T.R.It is pleaded that in view of the immense advantage Montreal has derived from the Grand Trunk Railway, it should abandon its claim to the repayment of the amount of assistance given to it by loan, thirty years ago.If, however, the city has no valid claim, why should it be called upon, so pathetically, to abandon it ?That, in fact, the advantages of the railway to the city are worth many times the million of dollars in question.\u201d Admitted, but why discuss the relative values, if the city has no claim, and cannot collect it if it had one ?Iu justification of the plea of great advantages, &c., the contrast is presented of the present proud position of the city, and what it would now be, \u201c were it possible to wipe out the existence of the G.T.R., with all the incidences of advantage to this communi v.Again, I admit it fully, but is the Gazette, or the new director of the Midland Railway, the President of the Board of Trade, preparel to assert, that if we had not the G.1'.R., we should have had no other railway facilities?Let us glance, however, at the present proud position of Montreal.Freight engagements are made in Liverpool to all the western Canadian cities, passing our own doors, for from one-quarter to one- third less cost than for delivery here by our one beneficent railway, and through freight will be taken from Detroit or Stratford to Portland or Boston via Montreal for the same or lesa cost that for delivery in Montreal.This, then, is our proud position! and the explanation is at hand; \u201c this is not a competing point,\u201d we have our railway, and only one practical ly, since the G.T.R.controls all the outlets, as it would swallow up every inlet, if it were possible to do so.The Gazette further represents that while itis of importance to the city that the G.T.R.should have à station \u2018\u2018suitable to the growing wants of the great current of passenger travel,\u201d it is not especially important to that company! and the past is adduced in proof of 1t.At the same time, he admits, that neither the city nor the company have reason to be proud of the present station, nevertheless it answers,\u201d he says, \u201cthe actual wants of the former, und the latter has had no option but to put up with it.\u201d He goes on to say that there is serious doubt that the G.T.R., having regard to * claims in other directions.\u201d would Le disposed to spend so Jarge asum as that contemplated by the Finance Cammittee, \u201cexcept in the settlement of claims.\u201d What the phrase \u2018claims in other directions\u201d may imply, considering our proud position, I cannot divine; but I am moral- lv certain that but for this claim, which Mr.Hickson says is no claim, we would have liad a suitable passenger station long since, for years ago Sir Henry Tyler tole his shareholders that the company had a considerable amount in bonds not issued, because the company had no use for the money.In conclusion, permit me to say that in my opinion a great deal of buncome has been spoken and written with reference to this matter ; and whilel will yield to no one else in my high appreciation of the advantages of railway facilities, and those furnished by the G.T.R.especially.I fully believe that Moutreal has Peon as beneficial to the railway as that has been to the city, and for one I do not believe that the British and only shareholders of the company brought their rails and business to this city for our exclusive advantage.Now, I donot object to the proposed settlement, but I object to the false pretences, if they are false.Either the city has a just claim, or it has not ; ifit has, let it be frankly conceded, and the best arrangement made to settle the matter speedily ; if it has no claim, then let that be clearly shown, and so end the discussion.As to a station, if a decent station is needed for the accommodation of the travelling public, certainly not exclusively for the citizens of Montreal, then let one be built, and that without delay.Maney.AMUSEMENTS.ACADEMY OF MUSIC.BARLOW & WILSON\u2019S MINSTRELS.Notwithstanding the unfavourable weather there was a very large audience at the Academy last night to witness the performance of the Barlow, Wilson & Co.s Minstrels.They are successful rivals of Haverly\u2019s in many respects.There is one thing we do complain of and that is the mentioning of woinen\u2019s names\u2018on the stage and in the coarse manner in which a certain lady\u2019s was last night in the concluding part of the programme.Though now before the public as an actress she is entitled to respect, and the mixing up of her name with the Heir Apparent to the British Crown and other gentlemen, will be condemned here and meets with no countenance.This so-called musical satire is a miserable failure in everyway.' It is coarse, and it would require.a strong microscope to find the wit or satire.We strongly advise its discontinuance during the troupe\u2019s tour through Canada.As for the other portion of the programme it is capital at all'points.The end men were very amusing, Frank Cushman being as of yore a tower of strength.Ballads were well sung by Charles Temple and Stanley Vernon, and the comic honours were divided between George Wilson and Luke Schoolcraft.The olio introduced the usual song and dance, drill and clog exercise, in which Barney Fagan carries off the laurels, and no one will dispute his right to the title of champion dancer.Schoolcraft and Coes were heartily Applanded in a sketch and their acrobatic featd \u201cwere capital.Crawford and McKisson were very funny and were followed by Wood and West in droll antics on roller skates, which was most laughable and created enthusjasm.plause.The Clipper Quartet gave ad to respond to hearty encores.The show is a good one and we trust the ob- Jjectionable part pointed out will be eliminated from the programme.BOSTON IDEAL OPERA.This Company will begin an engagement of three nights at the caderoy of Music he operas to be presented are Fatinitza,\u201d Mascot\u201d and \u2018\u2018 Fra Diavolq\u201d The artists who will appear are Marie Stone, Graldine Ulmar, athilde Phillipps, Lizzie Burton, Tom Karl, Herndon Marsell, Myron W.Whit- The four aces, Talbert, Tierney, Wilson\u2019s eccentricities created much ap Pleasing musical plantation sketch and hey, H.C.Barnabee, St.H.MacDonald and George Frothingham.All these peo- pe.have admirable reputations in the nited States, and many of them have been heard here in concert and oratorio.The Companv numbers upwards of 60 people, and carries a complete chorus and orchestra.THEATRE ROYAL.GENERAL TOM THUMB.Our theatre-goers who have not attended the Royal this week are still afforded several opportunities of seeing the immortal Tom Thumb, as the performances will be repeated to-day and to-morrow, both after- woon and evening, while on Saturday after noon a grand matinee will be given.The performance of Saturday evening will close the engagement, and as this is probably the last time that the General will visit the city no one should fail to attend.¢ THE MAID OF ARRAN.\u201d The above drama will be produced at the Royal during the week commencing Monday, the 15th, and is spoken of as a great attraction.PERSONAL.Messrs.E.Wragge and W.W.Beatty, Toronto, are registered at the Windsor otel.Among the arrivals at the Windsor yesterday were D.P.McLaurin and wife, St.Paul, Minn;

Amos Rowe and the Winnipeg Times are told that they were not authorized to speak for the Government, but that the Government respects fheir independence, and would not punish them or any other paper for an exhibition of that invaluable class of political goods.The independence of the Press, generally, was praised, and a sound principle laid down in regard to the relations of the Press with the Government.So all the parties to the discussion are happy, perhaps Mr.Woodworth the happiest of all, since he has subceeded in drawing the world's attentions to that wicked sinner, Amos Rowe, and Sir John had, in effect, declared that Amos Rowe spoke after the manner of vain men when he announced that his message in regard to the Manitoba olections was from \u201cthe Government.We would advise, Amos Rowe to make his peace with D.B.Woodworth, who is not a man to be needlessly attacked, or even carelessly trified witn.Once on a time, the Government of the day, in Nova Scotia, succeeded in expelling Mr.Woodworth from the House of Assembly, because of his aileged failure | to make good certain charges preferred by him against the Hon.W.B.Vail, then \u2018Provincial Secretary; but Mr.Woodworth\u2019s constituents immediately sent him back to the Legislature, and he soon sucpeeded in expelling the Vail Government from power imsiead.Mr.Woodworth, in good temper, is credited with being the most genial fellow going.Mr.Woodworth, on the warpath, is understood to be an exceedingly dangerous customer.It is unfortunate for Amos Rowe that so early in life he has forfeited the friendship of Mr.Woodworth, as, if rumour speaks truly, this gentleman never forgets.For the Censervative party in the great North-West the spectacle of two of their gladiators stripped in the arena and waging war to the death may be a stirring scene ; one calculated to send a sensation even through the nerves of the hardened readers of those exciting dime novels which chronicle the astounding deeds of valour of the brave frontiersman, or the abounding cruelties of the Pawnee or the Blackfoot.But looking to the future of the great North-West, with its illimitable possibilities of wheat and cattle and coal and silver, and politicians, and having regard to the stability of the Confederation itself,\u2014to say nothing of the cost of running the Ottawa parliamentary machine for legitimate business alone \u2014it would be fair to all the interests involved if these Conservative braves would bury their respective hatchets, and smoke several pipes of peace, or perform such other needful ceremonies as are appropriate to the country, and .to the termination of this cruel war.The Provincial Rights question, the Disallowance question, the Orange question, the national and\u2019 sectional cries wnich sometimes fill the air, put a sufficient strain upon this Confederation of ours, without the introduction of such momentous and.marrow seeking questions as those involved in Amos Rowe calling himself an \u201corgan,\u201d and the Winnipeg T%mes attacking Mr.Dewdney and Mr.Woodworth, to make no mention of Mr.Rykert.The line must be drawn somewhere, and we believe the country is prepared to draw it at Woodworth versus Rowe, whose surname is Amos.A POST OFFICE WAR.In the city of New York, as well as in other importaut centres of the United States, considerable, and at the same time lucrative, business is dene by individuals and, in seme cases, by companies in the direction of small parcels and letter delivery.The result has been to materially diminish the Post Office receipts from a source that is calculated to be the most productive of profit, the Department being compelled to do all the non-paying business, compensation for which was naturally anticipated from the other source.The attention of the Post- master-General having been directed to the circumstance that the receipts at New York were insufficient to meet expenses, enquiry brought out the fact which we have mentioned.Attorney- General Brewster gave it as his opinion that private post offices were illegal and their business should be stopped.The law which it is claimed has been violated provides that\u201c ne person shall establish any private express for the conveyance of letters or packets, or in any manner cause or provide for the conveyance of the same by regular trips or at stated periods, over any post-route which is or may be estab- of our Dominion.The Govern- t offending or aiding or assisting therein shall for each offence be liable to a penalty of $150.Provided, nothing herein contained shall be construed as prohibiting any person from receiving and delivering to the nearest post office or postal car mail matter properly stamped.\u201d On Friday last a raid upon two of these illicit establishments was inaugurated, and, as a consequence, over 60,000 letters were seized in the hands of carriers and in those of sert- ers at the respective irregular offices.It seems that circulars and statements from commercial houses are accustomed to be delivered at half the ordinary postal rate, and that their mode of delivery ensures more attention to them han if they were received by the ordinary mails.According to Post Office Inspector Newcombe the two offices which were raided together with the United States Circular and Delivery Company carried enough matter to deprive the Government of an annual revenue of half a million of dollars ; and, he added, that frequently the private post officers did not deliver the circulars at all, but disposed of them at the junk shops.The claim of the Government does not in any way geem to be an unreasomable one that, were it not for the profits on local deliveries, it would be impossible to supply the distant service at the one uniform rate, as there are actually letters to be carried for three cents the real cost of whose transmission and handling is nearer three dollars than three cents.The Post Office service is a part of the paternal functions which the authorities are bound to discharge and therefore they have every reason to object to any interference with their business.The same principle obtains in a measure with respect to the regulation of local and through railway fares, and were it not for the profits un the former it is certain that travel would be restricted, and many articles of utility would for the same reason be prevented from reaching the hands of the consumes The New York World, however, fails to regard the matter in this way and contends that the \u201creal lesson to be learned from the diversion of postal business to private companies is not that the private companies ought to be suppressed.It is that if private persons can make profit by delivering letters more promptly, more frequently and more cheaply than that service is done by the Government, the Government ought to improve its service and deliver letters so promptly, frequently and cheaply as to put private cempeti- tion out of the question.Everybody will prefer to intrust his letters to the Government, other things being equal,\u201d This argument would be a forcible one were private companies prepared to do the business for the same uniform rate which the Government charges; but the fact is that as matters now stand a heavier rate of taxation must of necessity be imposed or the postal rates be augmented, unless the service be carried on as at present.It isthis.conviction which has doubtless led the authorities to commence their raids.Possibly, however, Gur contemporary in ita gushing affection for the powers that be at Washington seeing no likeliheod of a further reduction of the tariff, thinks that additional post office expenditures would have the effect of materially reducing the Federal surplus under the burden of which it continues to groan.No one would for a moment object to any improvements that could be effected in the postal service both here and in the United States, but there are economic considerations in connection with every public work which should never be altogether lost sight of.A NATIONAL ENTERPRISE.In to-day\u2019s issue of the HERALD will be found the conclusion of Mr.Blake's speech in reply to Sir Charles Tupper\u2019s explanations on the Pacific Railway.The Hzraup, if we mistake not, is the only Montreal journal that has published both of these very able speeches.Hon.J.H.Pope followed Mr.Blake, bis remarks being brief and principally devoted to showing that Mr.Blake's comparison of the rates of freight imposed by the Canadian Pacific Railway, with the rates charged by other railways, was erroneous and misleading.To Mr.Pope's figures we shall refer again; meantime we desire to point out that only good to the public interests and to the interests of the Railway Company, will result from the thorough ventilation which the Company's operations, and its relations to the Government, have received at the hands of those gentlemen.Afterall has been said that can be said, pro and con, the \u201cinteresting fact remains that this great national work is being pushed forward with an energy and a success of which no one ever dreamed five yearsago.The vast prairie is being traversed from end to end ; but rapidly as the work of track- laying has progressed, the emigrant and settler are following hard after the railway engine.The capital of the Government and the means of the Company have united to bring about a development of railway enterprise which has never been surpassed.There cannot be a Canadian who does not feel pride in the fact that a gigantic work has been laid hold of with a giant's strength, and that results, the accomplishment of which would have taxed the resources of an Empire, are being worked out by a country which is called a \u201ccolony,\u201d and in a manner which justifies the calculations of the promoters, and redounds to the credit of the Dominion, The courage, the nerve, the hope, which were necessary to the undertaking and the successful execution of so mighty a work have had a stimulating influence on all the enterprises The example of the multitudinous and complicated details shown by the Company\u2019s officers, cannot fail to impress on the present generation of Canadians the lesson that all things are possible to the clear headed, stout hearted, resolute men of action.If Canadians admire the courage and gameness of Sir Charles Tupper and the thoroughness and eloquence with which Mr.Blake deals with the weightest questions; if the | achievements of these gentlemen are an inspiration to the men who are coming forward, to take thoir places eventually in Parliament, may it not be said of a great national enterprise such as the Canadian Pacific Railway \u2014the greatest undertaking of the kind in the world\u2014that its successful accomplishment must contribute in no small degree to elevate not only Canada in the aggregate but Canadians individually in the estimation not nrerely of the world abroad but of Canadians themselves § In the presence of such triumphs as Canada can boast of\u2014in railway construction, in her merchant marine, in her steamship lines, in manufactures, in the field of intellectual accomplishment, etc., \u2014 there should come an end to that uncalled for self- depreciation in which too many Canadians have been accustomed to indulge.ORDERS were received at Aldershot yesterday, to send troops and police to the Curragh Camp, in Ireland, instantly.em eee ON the 17th instant a dinner takes place at the Windsor, under the auspices of Le Club National.Hon.Messrs.-Laurier and Laflamme and other leaders, with the fifteen \u201c plucky fellows \u201d in the Legislative Assembly, are expected to be present.Tue SS, \u201c City of Rome,\u201d which was refused by the Inman Steamship Company because it was alleged she did not come up to the specifications, has recently undergone important improvements and alterations under the direction of her present owners, the Anchor Line.It is antidipated that she will in the future far outrival her record.ES THE Southern Exposition, so open at Louisville, Kentucky, on August 1, promises to be a success.The one held some time ago at Atlanta, Ga, had a most beneficent eflect, and it is to be expected that similar results will follow the present .undertaking.Improved methods and economies, not only in cotton culture were the result of the Atlanta gathering, the North and Seuth were placed in a position to understand each others capabilities aud requirements, and generally a better feeling was created.rm \u2014\u2014 i \u2014\u2014 As will be seen by our report of the Finance Committee cf the City Corporation, Mr.Hickson, on the part of the Grand Trunk Railway Company, has forwarded a letter submitting an important proposal on the subject of the claim of the City against the company, and the erection of the new and much wanted assenger station.Mr.Hickson offers to bave a new aud commodious depot, costing not less than $300,000, erected by the end of 1885, agreeing to advance $100,000 to the city on condition that, if the depot is put up within the specified time the Corporation shall repay the $100,000 with interest.The city in such event would be expected to relinquish the claim which it makes against the road.A Committee was appointed to confer with the railway authorities and it is to be hoped the result will be an amicable arrangement satisfactory to all parties.DEATHS.TreacEy\u2014On the 9th instant, Martin Treacey, aged 67 years, a native of the County Galway, Ireland.Funeral from his late residence, corner McCord and Ottawa streets, on Friday, at 8.30 a.m., to St.Ann\u2019s Church, thence to the R.C.Cemetery.Friends and acquaintances are respectfully invited to at tend.u LoRANGER\u2014In this city, on Tuesday, ~th May, 1883, Rosalie Laframboise, wife of the Hon.Judge L.O.Loranger, and daughter of the late Judge Laframboise.Funeral on Friday, 11th instant, at 9.15 a.m., from her late residence, 31 St.Hubert street, to the Church of Notre Dame, and thence to the Roman Catholic Cemetery.Friends and acquaintances are respectfully invited to attend without further notice.Nem Aduertisements, CANADA LIFE ASSURANCE CO.The - Directors have decided to keep the Lists of the year open until THE 21ST INST.Assurers JOINING by THE 19th INSTANT, WILL SHARE IN Three Years Profits AT THE DIVISION IN 1885.Manager of Prov.Quetec Branch: J.W.MARLING.Inspector of Agencies Prov.Quebec: P.LAFERRIERE.Montreal District Agent : JAMES AKIN.May 11 112 BELLHOUSE, DILLON & CO., Iron, Steel, Railway Supply and Chemical Agencies, HAVE REMOVED TO 9 CUSTOM HOUSE SQUARE.May 11 r112 Steam to Newfoundland and Cane Breton, ERE = The Al TINTERN ABBEY is intended to load for St.Johns, Nfld., on or about the 16th instant, calling at Sydney, C.B., should sufficient freight offer.For Freight, apply to LORD, MUNN & CO., 12 St.Peter Street.May 11 u 112 May 10 Nothat they bear their corporate mark, thus : CORPORATE \u2014\u2014\u2014101-\u2014\u2014- SAVAGE & LYMAN HAVE REMOVED TO 247 ST.JAMES ST.- Two Doors North of H, MORGAN & CO?°S iL JOSEPH RODGERS & SONS.(LIMITEID) CUTLERS, By Special Appointment to Her 6 NORFOLK STREET, JOSEPH RODGERS & SONS beg to caution the public against gpurious goods i i e and made to iinitate their genuine manufactures.;

Aduvertisements.If You Want a Piano Get the Best.It is a fact not known to all our readers that the price of the New York Weber Piano (universally admitted to be the finest musical instrument in the world), as sold by the N.Y.Piano Co., is very little more than the price asked for other pianos not costing one-half so much to manufacture.The New York Musical Trade Re view, who investigated the subject, states that the wages paid by the house of Weber was ten per cent.higher than was paid by any other manufacturer in America, and nearly double the price paid by the leading manufacturers in Europe.In an interview with Mr.Wm.Steinway he admitted that the wages paid by Weber for skilled labour exceeded that paid by any other lieuse in the United States.Notwithstanding these facts, we often hear of large prices being paid to agents for second, third or fourth rate pianos, \u2018most of which can now be purchased from the anu facturers for a little over half the cost of pianos like the Weber.Pianos, like nations and individuals, have their day\u2014the Stodarts of thirty years ago were superseded by Chickering, and he was in turn superseded by Steinway; now Steinway and all have to give place to Weber, who, the New York Iribune says, can hardly be said to havearival.The Tribune says, the wealthy and fashionable people of New York will have no other piano, and if Weber\u2019s instruments do not adorn their drawing-rooms it indicates a lack of musical taste or of the means necessary to procure it.Now that the young ladies are returning from school, the purchase of a piano is an important item in the family history, those parents who are able should procure the best.It is quite likely they |, will find the difference in cost very little, but the difference in tone will be very great.A Weber piano is not an article of furniture, it isin the highest sense an in- gtrument of music which will last for a generation and be a source of pleasure to the family, and the friends who visit them, while it lasts.The name (Weber, New York) on the key board of the piano stamps the family as possessing taste and musical appreciation, if not wealth.For WEBER, DECKER &SON,

and I said we should not permit the resources intended to be devoted to the construction of the contract line, to be used in buying branches and extensions which might not be essential to the contract, and which might prove unfavourable to this country.Some further information has been obtained since I spoke.The Canada Central has been acquired and the financial condition of that entegprise is, first mortgage bonds, £500,000 sterling, or $2,500,000; second mortgage bonds overdue, £200,000 sterling, or $1,000,0000; first preference stock, $1,400,000, assumed at.par; ordinary stock outstanding, $1,200,300: to be issued $23,000; or a total of $2,850,000, assumed at 50 cents on the dollar, making $934,000.Then there is the agreement to pay certain other obligations outstanding for stock or otherwise, making the price to the Canadian Pacific Railway Company of the Canada Central, $6,000,000.Of these $2,500,000 stand on mortgage, making the sum to be provided for in this purchase some $3,500,000.Now 120 miles were built almost entirely by the Government subsidy of $12,000 a mile, and the price seems to me greater than will be paid for with the interest of dividends or profit.At $6,000,000 the Montreal & Ottawa line is also acquired, including the Aylmer branch and the St.Jerome branch, and if we include the rolling stock, we have $4,000,000 paid, $4,000,000 practically in cash, and $6,000,- 000 in yearly payments, and the balance of $3,000,000 is left on mortgage, and these $3,000,000, with $2,500,000, make the $5,000,000, which, in their prospectus, the company declare will be mortgaged on the extensions which they have purchased.These two purchases in the east come to $10,000,000, of which $6,500,000 have to be presently provided for, or have been provided for by the company.Then I see that they have made ANOTHER LITTLE PURCHASE.They have brought the Laurentian Railway, together with the St.Lin Branch, and there again you find a purchase which I cannot connect with the true interests of the Canadian Pacific Railway Company.They bargained for the large ro.through the then First Minister of Quebec, the present Secretary of State; and they bargained for the small road through L.A.Senecal, the President and practical proprietor of the road.That little branch received about $60,000 in aid from the Quebec Government.It was to have gol some $59,000 from municipalities, and there were shares to the amount of $45,000 subscribed for, making a total of $160,000.Still the road only\u2019 cost about $140,000, and the contractor handed over the bonds to Col.King and Mr.Hurteau, at two different times, and apparently ail that was advanced by those to whom the bonds ultimately fell was about $60,000.Mr.Senecal became the proprietor of all but a fraction of them, for about $60,000 or $70,000.In that position, at the same time when the large sale is made, the small is made; and the Canadian Pacific Railway Company de- quires the Laurentian Railway and agrees to pay these bonds in full with interest upon them calculated at 7 per cent., which has not been paid for a long number of years ; so that the price would be nearly $400,000 for the St.Lin branch, represeat- ing an investment to the vendor of $60,000 or $70,000\u2014for which he receives nearly $400,000 for a road costing perhaps $140,- 000 to construct, and being worth no more.There you find an investment for which the country has to pay, and if this is to be treated as part \u2018of the main line, it has'to pay 10 per cent.profit on it.ir CITARLES TUPPER\u2014The hon.gentleman will see that the statement which I have read declares that not a single dollar of the money has been expended in relation to any of the works east of Calleuder.All further purchases by the company not only pay their working expenses, ut the entire interest on the cost of the works.The fands of tne Canadian Pacific Railway Company, as derived from the Government of Canada, anvthing in relation to anything east of Callender.Mr.BLAKE\u2014The Parliament of Canada has agreed that the Canadian Pacific Railway Company shall have the tolls kept up to such a point that it shall reap enough to pay the working expenses, the interest on its debt, and ten per cent.on capital, and, theretore, WE ARE DEEPLY, VITALLY INTERESTED in what that capital account is, and what the acquisitions of the company are.I have to do with the extraordinary unfortunate powers which were granted to the Canadian Pacific Railway Company.We are deeply interested in that Company, in considering\u2019 these purchases.In order, as far as I can see, to get a line from Montreal to Callender, 347 mises long, the company has acquired some 440 miles of railway in main line and branches, because there is another little bit of road, the St.Eustache Railway,making a total of about $10,700,000 including a certain sum for the works included with these works\u2014of capital a Ried in this way\u2014not all applied in cash.Now, $7,000,000 or $8,000,000 must have been paid or settled in some way on this account, and if the resources of the company are strained, I ask whether this may not be largely attributed to its having launched out into the eastern part of the country.The hon.gentleman says that these roads pay working expenses and interest charge.= The traffic is estimated by the company in its prospectus on the eastern section at $3,200 a mile.Ido not know WHAT THE OPERATING COST 18, but I am not very far wrong in estimating this cost at 70 per cent.on the gross returns.That would give you a net sum of $460,000, or 43 per cent.on the capital invested.At any rate on the bulk of this amount, and the company contend on all of it we have to secure them in ten per cent.There is not enough money to free the country from these tells, so that ten per cent.shall be received.Before the mortgages are paid the increase will be about $6,500,000, on which ten per cent.\u2018will have to be paid, or $650,000.Did I say $6,500,000?I retract.According to the hon.gentleman\u2019s statement to-night, the capital will be represented by stock issued at 60, and therefore the capital upon these roads will appear to be a much larger sum than $6,500,000.It would be utterly impossible to pay a dividend out of their earnings, and therefore these transactions involve a further charge on the trade of the North-West Territories for all time to come.As to the apparent connection between the company and the Credit Valley, and the Ontario and Quebec, I invited information.The company has made a return stating that they have no connection whatever with the Credit Valley and the Ontario and Quebec.That is the answer to the return, but there ie a cable telegram which preceded the return a few days, signed by H.Tyler and addressed to Mr.Hickson, and by George Stephen addressed to Van Horn, in which these potentates declare that an arrangement has been made under which the Canadian Pacific Railway Company agrees to give the Credit Valley and the Ontario & Quebec to the Grand Trunk ; but they have nothing to do with these roads\u2014at least that is what they tell the House.They say they have nothing to say, but the President has telegraphed that they have agreed to give them to the Grand Trunk.Are we to believe Mr.'Drinkwater, who says they have nothing to do with these roads, or are we to believe the President who agrees to sell?Or are we to believe that the President agrees to sell without having the power to sell ?On the whole I believe the President, that they have some connection with the Credit Valley and the Ontario & Quebec.It appears that they are to acquire these roads, or, at least, they are tolease them perpetually and pay interest on their securities.Here again we have another illustration of the mode in which burdens are being placed on the North-West by virtue of the powers given to this company.THE CREDIT VALLEY RAILWAY is about 183 miles long, and cost somewhere about $20,000 a mile, or $3,700,000 in all.How was that cost provided 7 Aid from the Government of Ontario, $457,500 ; aid from municipalities in Ontario, $1,165,000 ; stock paid up, $500,000 ; making $2.082,000.If we deduct that from $3,700,000, we have $1,600,000 to Le provided for; and bonds were issued to the amount of $20,600 per mile, and were ledged for the raising of this $1,600,000.t appears from papers on the table that Mr.Stephen got $1,650,000, about 45 cents on the dollar.According to the statistics of the hon, genileman the railway earned $335,900, while its expenses were $289,000, leaving a surplus of $46,000.The interest charged on the bounds of $3,670,000, of which $1,600, 000 only had been raised, would be $183,- 500, leaving a deficiency in interest of $137,500 a year.The bonds were not worth more than 50 cents, but the Canadian Pacific Railway Company has undertaken to assume the interest\u2014and the principal too, The member for Argenteuil explained in the Railway Committee that he did not understand that it would be added to the capital, so that 10 per cent.would have to be paid on it.But he ackt nowledged that by legalizing the creation of the indebtedness we authorized the GOVERNMENT TO PAY THE INDEBTEDNESS and we agreed, therefore, that they might pay $183,500 upon a road which is only paying $46,000 a year.It isobvious there will be a deficiency which will have to be paid before getting a dividend, to be kept at 10 per cent.Therefore so much more is thrown on the North-West to acquire the Credit Valley Railway in the interests of the Company whose Presiden has an interest in it much larger than in the Canadian Pacific Railway.It is to the mterest of the Company to assume the bonds on that road at par, when they ave not wopth more than 40 or 50, thus throwing on the back of the Canadian Pacific Railwa from $1,600,000 to $2,000,000.In this connection I might refer to the hon.gentleman\u2019s arrangement by which he substitue ted these $1,650,000 bonds for the $4,000, 000 deposits.Ido not understand that this was according to law.The Comp&ny deposited in cash, and I believe there was no legal authority to take that $1,000,000 out of the treasury and accept any securities whatever in lien of it.The on.Minister on the 24th November\u2014Mf.Angus writes his proposition the same day, whether the letter was by telegraph I know not \u2014ascertains the facts, makes a report to: council and recommends the consummation of the transaction.\u201d In that report He declares \u2018that the security represents a charge on the Credit Valley of $12,000 a mile only, and considering the section of country through which the road ran, he believes it is good.If he assumes that the charge of the Credit Valley is to be reduced because these bonds represent only $1,000,000, I accept that assumption, and with that assumption and the taking over the $2,000,000 which are outstanding, I find that the charge on the Credit Valley Railway would be $16,400 a mile instead of $12,000 a mile.I ASK THE HON.GENTLEMAN TO EXPLAIN by what figures he justifies his calculation that the bond charge was only $12,000 a mile.Then we were asked to grant a charter to the Ontario & Quebec, a company which asked no aid, which asked no subsidies, an independent company giving an independent line, asking no special favours and giving us an interior line.We voted for a charter\u2014but it seems that it 1s to be taken over at a low capital by the Canadian Pacific Railway, including the bridge across the St.Lawrence.Now, these operations involve an addition to the capital of from ten to twelve million dol- lars\u2014the Credit Valley, the Ontario and Quebec, and a portion of the Atlantic and North-Western are to be taken over, and if these enterprises do not pay interest at the full rate at which the money is bor rowed, then the balance is to come out of the North-West.I suspect that the object of wanting the bridge across to Montreal is to get a Boston terminus for the Canadian Pacific Railway.Prominent gentlemen in that company are prominent in the South- Eastern Railway, and I suspect that the next movement will be to arrange an amalgamation with the South-Eastern, by which Boston will become the eastern terminus of the Canadian Pacific Railway.Some years ago we thought it very important to help the Grand Trunk into Chicago; but now we are establishing, not a competitive line with the Grand Trunk for the North-West trade, but a line which shall divert from the Grand Trunk the North-West trade.It is utterly impossible for any railway to compete for the North- West trade upon equal terms with the Canadian Pacific Railway as long as the Canadian Pacific Railway retains the roads it has acquired in that regard, and until it bas all the traffic it can bear.The result will be that THERE WILL BE NO COMPETITION.There may be competition on the Western Peninsula, but, with reference to a large class of interests, you will find no competition in the North-West between the Canadian Pacific and the Grand Trunk solong as the Canadian Pacific has the only line into the North-West and will be able to eftect this diversion of traffic over the new Canadian lines.The probability 1s that the Grand Trunk, which we extended with our money into Chicago cannot carry that western trade.You are not establishing competition, and you are giving over to the Banadian Pacific Railway the right to do the traffic of the North-West, to the exclusion of the other great Canadian line.Thus have the great powers with which Parliament entrusted the Canadian Pacific Railway Company been used in a waste of financial strength and energy to other and extraneous works, which have worked injuriously to -the Company as .well as to the country.If there has been a cloud in this Company\u2019s prospects it was \u2018due to the hostility of the shareholders of the Grand Trunk Railway, and that hostility I attribute to the course the Canadian Pacific Hailway Company have pursued in Ontario.Instead of taking i's own share of the traffic, the Canadian Pacific was determined to take hold of what che Grand Trunk regarded as its'share of the profits, and under these circumstances they struck back again.That was an 1m- prudent course on the part of that Company, dependent as it must be upon the money market for its capital in which the shareholders of the other Company are so powerful Now, Sir, I was prepared to ask to-night what THE CONDITION OF THINGS was to be.I was prepared to ask upon what the dividends of ten per cent.were to be collected.I had asked before and I had got no answer ; but, to-night, the response is made and it realizes our worst apprehensions.We are told boldly tonight that à dividend is to be paid and the legitimate capital is to be considered as having been created by whatever extent to which the Canadian Pacific Railway choose to emit stock.I have read to you the Canadian Pacific Railway Company\u2019s President\u2019s own letter, in which he declares on the 5th of April that \u201cthe cash stock of the 3,354 miles of railway will be $54,000,- 000,\u201d the stock being issued at 60.\u201d And I am told that instead of paying 10 per cent.ou the cash cost, as he estimates it, without giving credit for the 17,000,000 acres of land, which he sets against it, the dividend 18 to be paid not merely on the $54,000,000, but on the whole $90,000,000, making $9,- 000,000 a year dividend, although $54,000,- 000 only go into the road.And the hon.gentleman\u2019 has 80 little considered this subject that he talked of this new stock all through as bonds, and had to be corrected time ana again.He said they sell their bonds at 60, as if the sale of bonds and the sule of stock had any parallel whatever.Why, if you sell bonds at 60 in the open market it is because YOU CANNOT RAISE YOUR MONEY CHEAPER, and it is necessary, therefore, to pay that much money in the end in order to raise the money for which you sell your bonds.But if you are going to emit stock, and if you want $54,000,000 of stock, you send that amount out to the public, and you get what you want.If you send out $90,000, 000 of stock vou get no more; but all the advantage the shareholders have is under this contract, according to which they say they can get a dividend at 10 per cent.ou $90,000,000, instead of 10 per cent.on $54, 000,000.Sir JOHN MACDONALD\u2014They cannot o it.Mr, BLAKE\u2014There* again I am cou- fronted with the great difficulty in the case, viz., that I find two voices on the other side of the House on this subject.The right hon.gentleman says they cannot do it, but the hon.Minister of Railways .explained the policy of the Government, and he declared emphatically that that was to be treated\u2014every shilling of it\u2014as capital.Sir JOHN A.MACDONALD\u2014It is for dividend purposes, but not for tariff purposes.Read the clause.Mr.BLAKE-\u2014I have read it, and know it perfectly well.ir JOHN A.MACDONALD\u2014But you do not tell us all about it.HE WILL TELL ALL.Mr.BLAKE\u2014I cannot say all I have to say in a moment, Iknow the hon.gentleman\u2019s views about it and my own view, but I am dealing now with the hon.Minister of Railways\u2019 view.What the hon.Minister of Railways said was that the stock was to be counted for tariff purposes.The question I putin March last was whether the company was to be entitled to 10 per cent.on the whole stock or not, and that question the bon.Minister of Railways has answered when he said \u201ccertainly.\u201d On that question the hon.Minister of Railways said that bonds and stocks were all the same thing, and that it would be better for the country that the company should sell at 50 instead of at 60 rather than there should be a MORTGAGE ON OUR CANADIAN PACIFIC RAILWAY.It would have been better had the hon.Minister of Railways consulted the First Mumister before making his statement, so that there might be concert among the hon.gentlemen opposite.\u2018This is a grave uestion.My opinion is that there isa ifference of opinion in the Cabinet on this subject.We owe it to ourselves and the country, and to tending investors, that the hon, Minister of Railways, and the hon First Minister, should settle the difference between them ; decide how the calculation shall be made ; announce it to the country before there has been any considerable move ment of this stock on the market, so that the people may not be able to say that they were deceived or misled.There is, therefore, now additional reason for a decisive and authoritative stateraent.I pointed out that the Consolidated Railway Act allowed only 6 per cent.interest on tlie capital expended during construction, but that this mode of issuing stock allowed the Company to obtain 84 per cent.if necessary.The hon.gentleman seemed to think that was a small matter not worthy of notice.With the hon, gentleman\u2019s tariff, and the arrangement he has made, it is probable that the profits of the railway in the future will, as they have been in the past, be good enough to pay the interest on the legitimate capital used in the construction ot the road.y this return, brought down the other day, that they have not taken out of the capital one dollar for interest as yet, because the earnings of the road have Teen adequate to pay interest on construction ; and what I complain of is that a provision should be inserted enlarging the charge for INTEREST DURING CONSTRUCTION beyond that which the law has applied to this sort of payments.The hou.gentle man has given them a new tariff, a highly increased tariff, but he has not been fur nished with information which shows him how the old tariff worked, the House has not been furnished with it, we have got nothing which enables us to judge for ourselves liow things have gone.The Company framed a tariff for local freight, they framed a tariff for through freight, they passed a by-law, they sent the y-law to the Government, the Governor in Council considered the by-law, they approved the by-law, they approved the tariff, and they fixed the period of time.Later on that period expired, and in the meantime the mileage had been much increased.The Company applied for an extension of the tariff to the new region, and also as to time, say'ng they were about to submit a reduced tariff later on.The Minister agreed with that view, and the tariff was extended in its operatio.; for another period.Now, what has the hon.gentleman done?HE VENTURES TO FRAME A TARIFF, and he orders his chief engineer to frame a tariff, and his chief engineer submits one to him, which, he says, he does not believe will please either party, he knows it is not considered liberal enough by the Company, and he thinks the Hon.Minister will con- gider it too high, but he thinks it is a fair and just tariff.He has given us something about the cost of labour, something about the cost of fuel, and the cost of working and his comparison.But we have not got the data that we would like to have had, namely, how had the old tariff worked?\u201d What had been done under it?What were the operating expenses?What were the earnings?hat different conditions were to be accepted in the new?Now, we have the general results.We know by the returns \u2018to the 30th June that in the year ending then the company\u2019s operating earnings over their lines were $1,548,000, and their operating expenses $1,148,000, giving a surplus of earnings over operating expenses of $400,- 000.We know net what the result was in the east, what the result was in the west, or how the old tor ff had worked.Without knowing, without getting from them those details which were essential elements in forming a judgment, he has ceused to be approved a new tamif.Now, Sir, that tariff is extremely defective.The old tariff provided through rates and local rates on different scales, as was proper.The new tariff that the hon.Minister has given to this company provides only local rates-\u2014 no through rates\u2014and therefore, of course, gives the company right to charge mileage rates up to the mileage rates of through freight as well as on local freight.What they do in that regard in the way of diminution is done of free grace, it is not done under the hon.gentleman\u2019s tariff.That is AN IMPORTANT DIFFERENCE between the old tariff ani the new one.In the old tariff it was held important to indicate what they should be allowed to charge for through freight, or for freight interchanged with connecting lines.Now, this new tariff gives only one maximum.Now, Sir, the old rates and the new rates compare thus\u2014taking the statistics which the hon.gentleman himself gave in his table of rates, given about this time last year: For distances of twenty to twenty-five miles, the old rates were, for first-class freight, 17 cents; second, 14 cents ; third, 11 cents; fourth, 8 cents.New rates, 24, 20, 16, 12, or an increase of about 50 per cent.in the new over the old.For torty-five to fifty, the next stage, the hon.gentleman gave us last year as furnishing a fair test, the rates were 34,18, 15, and 12 ; the new rates are 35, 29, 24, and 18, or once again an increase of somewhere about 50 per cent.For the next grade the hon gentleman took last year seventy to seventy-five miles, and the old rates were 29, 22, 19, and 15 cents; the new ra\u2018es are 45, 38, 30,and 23.For 99 to 100 miles the old rates were 40, 32, 22, and 17 ; the new rates are 54, 45, 36, and 27.The last which the hon.gentleman gave us last year was from 145 to 150 miles; for this the old rates were F15, 36, 29, and 23, while the new rates are 69, 58, 46, and 34,0r, speaking roughly, on every grade of rates which the hon.gentleman gave us of merchandise last year for the purpose of comparison, the new tariff is an increase of about 50 per cent.on the old\u2014in some a little less, in some a little more\u2014but on the average an increase of 50 per cent.Well, I will take some of the results in freighting from known points.The old local rate from Emerson to St.Boniface, sixty-five miles, on first-class merchandise, was 27 cents, now it is 41; on fourth-class, old rate 15 cents, new rate 21; special, sixth class, old rate $24, new rate $35, being AN INCREASE OF 50 PER CENT.Take the new rates and you will sée that this is a consequence of having omitted to give a through rate tariff and allow discretion to the company with respect to through rates, equal to that for local rates.The old through rate for first class merchandise from St.Vincent to St.Boniface was 18 cents ; now the through rate from St.Vincent to St.Boniface is 41 cents.The old rate for fourth class merchandise from Emerson to St.Boniface, was 10 cents, now it is 21; the old rate for merchandise, special sixth-class, from Emerson to St.Boniface was $17 for half a car, now it is $35.So the through rates have been increased on the short hauls by 100 per cent, while the local rates have increased 50 per cent.Now, why was this?It was because the Minister did not prepare a tariff of through rates, but gave the com- vany the power to charge up to the maximum through rate, as well as the local rate, and they have charged up to the maximum on the hauls I have mentioned for both, and they have been able to double the charge for through rates on short hauls.So itis of very little importance what the local rate is as compared with the through rate.The question is, what is charged upon the great amount of treight?The old local rate from Winnipeg to Rat Portage, 135 miles, was: first-class merchandise 45 cents, now 65 cents; fourth- class 20 cents, now 33 cents; special, sixth $42, now $47.To points beyond Winnipeg, such as Brandon, Rat Portage, Portage a Prairie, the through rate into Winnipeg, and the local rate out, is very far in excess of the through rate direct to that point.I do not object to a difference.I agree with the hon.gentleman that the thng haul has to be considered, and that the cireum- stances of the country have to be considered, and that they have to be considered with regard to opening up for settlement the further part; but THE DISCREPANCIES are so great here as undoubtedly to affect the interests of different parts of the country.The hon.gentieman further declares that the tariff will not pay the Canadian Pacific Railway for some years.The old one did.It has enabled them to pay running expenses and interest on capital during construction.The hon.geatleman points to problematical difficulties, tnd declares that it costs four or five times ag much to move freight as it does on \u2018he Grand Trunk.He makes comparisoig They tell us in\u2019 with the Iniercolonial, the Northern Pacis | fic, the Union Pacific, the St.Paul & Manitoba, and other roads.The hon.gentleman does not, however, assume on this occasion the attitude he assumed a year ago.He made comparisons then, too, He made a tariff which suited him to make more extensive comparisons.The hon.gentleman did not confine himself to monopoly rates and to high-priced roads, to the roads which have created, to a large extent, the railway question in the United States with respect to tariffs, or to roads about which great grievances have arisen.He took the Intercolonial, the Prince Edward Island, the Central Vermont, the Toronto, Grey & Bruce, the Canada Central, the St.Paul, Minneapolis, and Manitoba, the Northern & North-Western, the Grand Trunk, the Chicago, Milwaukee & St.Paul, the Atcheson, Topeka, & Santa Fe, the Northern Pacific, the Union Pacific, the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, the Chicago & North-Western; and he gave us a table of rates for first and fourth-class freights, ranging from 20 cts.to 50cts., 75 cts,, 90 cts, $1.00 and $1.50.What did the hon.gentleman say ?He said :\u2014\u201cAÂs this is a matter to which the hon.leader of the Opposition devoted a great deal of attention, and which I understood he deplored more deeply than anything else in connection with this contract, I am quite sure the House will bear with me if I take the opportunity, at some length, to show the hon.gentleman that HIS SYMPATHY WAS THROWN AWAY, that it was not required, and there is no room for him to bestow any more of it in that connection.Of course, the charges upon railways are in proportion to the distance that frei Tt is car ried.This is the mode in which all railway tariffs are constructed.\u201d Well, time works wonders, aud 1n this particular it seems to have arranged matters perhaps a little earlier than the hon.entleman himself may have expected.he tariffs which are in existence show that there is nothing to which the hon.gentleman can refer in this connection.They show this : the rates which he gave us last year as the rates of the Canadian Pacific Railway Company, in each of these cases, were the rates which have now been enormously increased.The Canadian Pacific Railway Company no longer bears a comparison with any of these roads; whalever, except the four monopoly routes, to which he has now referred.It no longer occupies the position in which he placed it last year, and even with them, taking the long hauls, the comparatively long hauls, the comparisons may be made in taking first-class merchandise.For two hundred miles on the Canadian Pacific, the rate is 80 cents; on the Union Pacific, 67 cents; and on the St.Paul and Manitoba, 73 cents; so that even of the monopoly rates, two are considerably under the anadian Pacific, according to the hon.gentleman\u2019s new table.For second-class trafficon a two hundred niles hanl the Canadian Pacific charge 67\u2019 cents, the Union Pacific 60 cents, and the St.Paul & Manitoba 54 cents.For lumber, shingles, and special fourths the Canadian Pacific, on a two hundred miles haul, charge 37 cents, the Union Pacific 36 cents, and the St.Paul & Manitoba 33 cents.For live stock the Canadian Pacific charge 60 cents, the Union Pacific 55 cents, and the St.Paul & Manitoba 53 cents.For household goods and implements, etc.,sixth-class goods, the Canadian Pacific charge 60 cents, and the St.Paul & Manitoba 56 cents.Now, Sir, WHEN WE COMPLAINED OF HIGH FREIGHTS from the North-West to Old Canada last year, they said, \u201c Oh! it is all of this infamous St.Paul & Manitoba Road.\u201d They have the right to charge what they like on their own railway.What have we to do with that ?But 3s-to the Canadian Pacific itaelf, the minute it gets inside the North- West its freights are low; but I have shown numerous instances in which the Canadian Pacific, under their new tariff, actually charge higher than the rates which were acknowledged grievances of the St.Paul & Manitoba last year; and it has been taken entirely out of that proud category in which the hon.gentleman placed it by the useful record which he made in his speech last year, of the ordinary rates; and it is put among the high monopoly roads, and up beyond a good many high monopoly roads at that; 80 that, Sir, it is clear that my observation was correct\u2014that the principle of regulating tolls by the Government would prove buta very unsatisfactory and imperfect method of obviating the evils of monopoly.This is the first instance we have of it.They commenced on a tariff which they say they believe is reasonable.Everybody is pleased.The hon.gentleman congratulates himself.We are branded through the country as having been raising a bogey.We find that the Canadian Pacific 1s going to carry freights as low as the Grand Trunk, the Northern & North- Western, the Toronto, Grey & Bruce\u2014all these roads; but one short year elapses, the prospects of the road are brighter than ever; and the hon, gentleman shows a double tariff\u2014a tariff which goes far in excess of all these, and thus we see, s0 early, how little protection the power of the Governor-in-Council in regulating tolls is.We contended that the company would be likely to sell the lauds av high prices for speculative purposes to & eculators ; and that the restrictions should be so placed as to secure the settlement, but there again we were laughed at by the hon.gentleman.We were TOLD THAT IT WAS RIDICULOUS ; that the company would never do anything of the kind ; and last year, the hon.gentleman, in reading over our resolutions to prove their futility, turned to that subject, and said: Here is another resolution, we were told that restrictions ought to be cast around the Canadian Pacific; that the ought not to be allowed to sell their lands free of conditions of settlement, and now I prove t6 you By: the logic of events, that this is all nonsence.Once again, Sir, one short year has vindicated our opinions.We find that the returns of the Canadian Pacific Railway Company show that they have sold 6,250, 000 acres in round figures for $17,390,000.We know that the great bulk of 1 has been sold not to settlers, not on condition of settlement,.but to a speculative land Sompany, the North-West Land Company.We know that that land has been sold not at §1 an acre but at something which is equivalent to $3 nominally\u2014equivalent to $2.70 per acre, allowieg for, the discount of the bonds amd the prices at which they were taken.We know that the company! has not acted on the prices which were stated to us last year.We know that they have refused those who wanted to buy lands, and that they have promoted and.assisted as far as, they.could the formation.of the compagnies which\u2019 have taken 5,000,000 acres of the choicest lands at the net price of $2.73 per acre.We knqw that our fears have been realized, and that the settler has to pay a profit on $2.75 per acre to the speculator, instead of getting the land at §1 or $1.25 from the Company.Now the cost of administration, the hon.entleman said,would be 25 cents per acre.find that THE COST OF ADMINISTRATION for the year was $85,000.They sold several millions of acres, but they did not put in the big sale of 5,000,000 of acres, so that the cost of administering the lands was à mere fraction of what the hon.gentleman said it would be, and the net return to the company will be $2.60 per acre if you make a liberal allowance for administration.Now, the hon.gentlemau stated, with reference tu the selection of the lands, that the lands which they now got, and the lands which were sold, were the cream.Not so.5,000,000 acres are now estimated to be obtainable along the line of the railway out of the nine or ten millions which would have existed if every alternate section had been available.Two and a half millions of acres are supposed to be available under tae first grant made to the south of the line, but that amount has been enormously extended since, but without any statement of what the acreage of that extent will be we know that far more than the company has disposed of is available along the line.The sale to the North-West Company is only a part of these lands.It is only Certain sections, and certain sections in the south-western part of Manitoba.That sale is distributed amongst the whole presumably of some 10,000,000 acres of country which, along the line and in the southern part of the country, they may have.The hon.gentle man says the rest is far superior ; but did we not hear the hon.member for Provencher (Mr.Royal) say, when the subject of the Prince Albert settlement was discussed, that it was the choicest part of the whole North-West.Wherever the company told the Government that they would build, wherever they wanted land, they projected a line, and they asked the Government to RESERVE SECTIONS, because they were going to build.| Later, they have asked the Government toreserve them without their building through it, and the Government have reserved a large block of what is reported to be the choicest lands in the North-W est-\u2014a block comprising, exclusive of Hudeon Bay and school lands, some 38,000,000 of acres, or of odd-numbered sections comprising 19, 000,000 of acres; and the Minister of the Interior reports that he thinks that out of that 19,000,000 of acres, after making allowances for water-stretches, lakes, etc., 12,500,000 acres would inure to the grant \u2014that is about two-thirds of the 19,000,000 would be availiable, and the lands are in the choicest parts ot the North-West, So futile are the stories which would treat the whole area of the North-West as available land, that the Minister of the Interior, in proposing a reservation of 19,000,000 of acres for the Canadian Pacific Railway within limits of their.own selection, says that these 19,000,000 shall be reserved in order to secure them 12,500,000 proper to be taken under the terms of the contract.If it requires 19,000,000 of acres to make up 12,500,800 fairly fit for settlement in the blocks of the choicest lands in the North-West, what proportion will be re- quiréd ja the ordinary portions of the country?Certaibly'a larger proportion, and this statement indicates that a much larger proportion than the hon.gentleman stated and asked the House 2nd the country to assume, of the North-West is not fit for settlement.The arrangements with reference to the homesteaders seem to me to be VERY UNFAVOURABLE TO THE PUBLIC.The Government was asked late in.the vear to negotiate with the homesteaders, whose homesteads might be wanted for town sites, with a view of having them abandon ¢heir homesteads, so that the company might build their stations upon them.Everybody heard that the company were sending out speculative homesteaders \u2014persons to squat as homesteaders along the line.Everybody heard that others were speculating in homesteads along the line; and hon.gentlemen agree that whoever might happen to be on a homestead, might agree with the company to give up his land to them, and all the company had to do was to send out men to squat, and then if they abandoned their land the company were authorized to take them.This is an arrangement which does not seem to me to be in the interest of the public, butis entirely in the interest of the Railway Company.as it enables then to acquire land which should either be the property of the homesteader or should have been reserved for town sites, so that the public wonld have got the benefit.The, hon.gentleman has said a great deal about the branches of the road.He says they are going to do a great deal in branches, but they certainly have changed their tune very much about the branches.Last year the hon.Minister brought down a etter from the company, in which they said that they had decided to build several branches in the North-West.There \u2018vas the Assiniboine Branch, 300 miles ; the Saskatchewan Branch, 435 miles ; the Souris Branch, 200 miles ; and the Pembina Mountain Branch, 100 miles, or a total of 1,035 miles of branches.They said they had not had time actually to locate the branch, but they sent in a plea giving an approximate statem nt of the lines so that the Government might reserve the land.These also all SEEM TO HAVE BEEN ABANDONED, The Saskatchewan has not been touched ; the Assiniboine has not been touched, and instead of 1,035 miles of projected lines, the hon.gentleman talks about 280 miles in other parts of the country.In fact the energy which should have been expended in making the branches has been expended in these eastern portions which I have already criticized.It will be remembeted that we contended that the provisions with regard to the selections of the route were not sufficiently guarded Now, there are several questions which arise with regard to this\u201cportion of the subject.For example, Callender Station apparently is a moveable point,but now it has been fixed at a point ten miles eastward of the int at which it was originally located.The reason is obvions.If you could shove Callender to the east the Canadian Pacific Railway Company, which amalgamated with the Canada Central, and which was completing its line, would be able to draw land and money subsidy for every mile you shove Callender to the east.I do not mean that the whole contract price would be increased, because it isa bulk sum; but they would be able to take the money which should be otherwise reserved for the construction of the other part, the real 650 miles to be built vy the Canadian Pacific Railway Company, from Callender to Thunder Bay, and apply itto a road which should be built from their own resources.The hon.gentleman did not see any objection to that.He shoved Callender Station ten miles farther back to the east, and ten miles of road which was not part of the contracted line became part of it, and the company claimed a subsidy for it and got it.That would be about $400,000 in land and money, estimating the land at $2.08 an acre, which they have realized on what they have already sold ; and .WHAT IS THE CONSEQUENCE ?There is a certain sum with which to build the line ; but we have already hsnded aver to them for the building of that which was not part of the line contracted to be built, $400,000 in land and money, and consequently there is $400,000 less available to uild the contracted line, just as on the prairie section we have handed over many millions of land and money which were wanted for other parts of the line.We are called upon to review the operations of the Government and the Canadian Pacific Railway Company during the year.We contrast the hon.gentleman\u2019s statements with his performances, and we find that, whenever anything occurs which was not calculated upon he is dumb.Now, we know that some mysterious arrangement has been made by which the contractors on Section \u201cB\u201d are satisfied, and the Canadian Pacific Railway Company are satisfied, but the contractors have given up their contract, aud the Canadian, acific Railway choose to construet as wel] as to ran the line; Theu there is the locg, tion of the road west of Moose J aw Crock: This was the most westerly point approveq Up to last session, 454 miles west of Wipe nipeg.The bon, Mini>ter distinetiy pled ed liiniself that no further appropriation shoulii be given to any portion of the road west of that point until Government had decided as to the route through the Kicking Horse Pass.That was the pledge: WHAT HAS TAKEN PLACE ?On the 27th of September, 1882, approva) was reported of 1133 miles west of Moose Jaw, from Moose Jaw to Swift Current Creek, on the recommedation of Acting Chief Engineer Lynch, in the absence of the Chief Engineer, through the hon.Minister of Agriculture, the Acting Minister of Railways and Canals, mn the absence of the hon.Minister of Railways.That report was approved by the hon.Minister, submitted to the Council, and adopted on the 30th September.There was a positive ledge to Parliament that there would not Pe any payment upon or any approval of any portion of the line east of Moose Jaw until the Government had ascertained that there was a better route through Kickin Horse Pass than through Yellowhead Pass.Yet without hawing ascertained that, without having the information u which a decision could be reached, a decision was reached, or rather there was no decision, for there is no Order in Counei} approving it; but the hon.Minister caused approval to be given involving the payment of $1,135,000 in cash aud a grant of 1,418,750 acres of land, which at the estimated value of $2.63 an acre is $3,802,000, or a total of $4.937,000, without any re ference to the question of the Kicking Horse Pass at all.Mr, POPE\u2014Referring to both Passes, Mr.BLAKE\u2014No, Minister of Railways had declared that Mooge Jaw was as far west as you could go on the route to Calgary, except with reference to the Yellowhead Pass, because the hon.Minister of Railwavs had declared that he did not intend to allow a single mile to be APPROVED IN LOCATION or paid for on the route to Calgary unless 1t was decided the railway should gn by Kicking Horse Pass; because the Load does diverge there; because the engineer so reported ; because the Minister so stated ; because it would be quite out of the question to carry that road to Swift Current and then go to Yellowhead Pass with any degrec of propriety unless the views formerly entertained by the engineer and the hon.Minister of Railways are entirely erroneous and uncertain, À little later, the 6th November, the hon.Minister of Railways himself received an application with reference to the location of the live from Swift Current Creek to the crossing of the South Saskatchewan, a distance of 148 miles.On that the chief engincer, Mr, Schreiber, reported as foliows:\u2014* That as far as the section referred to, from Swift Current Creek to the South Saskatchewan River, a distance of about 145 miles, is concerned, and its suitability for a line of railway, the country is favourable both as regards gradients and curvature, being in this respect well within the conditions imposed by the Canadian Pacific Railway Act; and that if a line within the terms of this Act can be located through the Kicking Horse Pass the line laid down on the plan now submitted, though not so direct from that point as might have been desired, may be considered sufficiently so as to warrant its approval.\u201d So that there was only a conditional approval given by the officer.But the hon.Minister, upon that, reported absolutely in favour of approval, and the Government absolutely approved.So, upon the 6th November, there was an absolute approval of the continued line for another 148 miles leyond Moose Jaw Creek, making an aggregnte, adding the 148 and 113} miles together, of 261} miles approved of, beyond the point in respect to which a pledge had been given to Parliament that there would be no such approval until the ascertainment that there was a better line in the country through Kicking Horse Pass than had been previously obtained through Yellowhead Pass.This action of the Government INVOLVED A FURTHER PAYMENT of $1,480,000 cash, and 1,850,000 acres of land, worth $2.68 an acre, $4,910,000\u2014or a total of $6,390,000 in land and money.Now, Kicking Horse Pass had not then been approved.When last session we were asked to give the Government authority to approve of a change, the hon.gentleman, in his speech last session, quoted a tele gram of the 17th April as his latest information, and the memorandum of Mr.Smellie, of the 15th April, as the next latest information.His understanding then was that seventy-nine miles would be saved if a straight line across the Selkirk was taken, and uot, if the big bend of the Columbia River should be followed.The subsequent information which has been brought down indicates that to go by the big bend of the Columbia, instead of by the straight cut, would iuvolve a loss of 77 miles, so that according to all the information received, if you go round by the big bend of the Columbia, you get practically the same distance through the Kicking Horse Pass as through the Yellowhead Puss.The hon.gentleman stated that a further saving has been found of seventy- nine miles since this report was made, but this report is very late.Sir CHARLES TUPPER.\u2014That report does not refer to the Yellowhead at all.Mr.BLAKE\u2014Certainly not ; but we had before that all the information concerning it, and according to that seventy-nine miles would be saved by going through fhe Kicking Horse Pass straight across the Selkirk Mountains, as \u2018compared with the route through the Yellowhead Pass.There is no indication of any other change.Then they give the mileage from a certain point by the Kicking Horse Pass at 148 miles, or about that; then they show that seventy- seven miles, or thereabouts, of those 148 miles would be taken by going by the Big Bend, so that practically the distance is the same.The hon.gentleman says that in some way or other, either by lengthening Yellowhead Pass or by SHORTENING THE KICKING HORSE PASS, they have found a further saving of 79 miles.Op that T am not competent to treat, nor is Parliament competent to deal with it; for the information, though it arrived just in time to enable the hon.gentleman to make his statement, did not arrive in sufficient time to be laid on the table of the House.Sir CHARLES TUPPER\u2014I have simply used the figures furnished by the Chief\" ngineer.I asked Mr.Schreiber what the saving would be by the line now ascer- téined, and he gave me the distance sqved by compared with the Yellowhead Pass line, to be 119-miles.I have-used Mr.Van- Horn\u2019s statement as to the saving between the line by Kicking Horse Pass and.the Selkirk Range, and that around the great.bend of the Columbia River.Mr.MACKENZIE\u2014W hose, figures did you use last vear ?Sir CHARLES TUPPEB\u2014Last year we had not the accurate information fhat we have now.Mr BLAKE\u2014We have gota report on this subject so late as the 18th April, 1883, which does not give the information, the Chief Engineer gave the hon.gentleman.It does not inform us of this further saving.When or how, in which of the valleys or mountains this saving has been found, we have no information of, and it only ecause the hon,\" » au dd \u2014 ne | -Or the ere en int , OF ty- 148 Big hat en- of L to eal ar- tle- ive of m- rief the er- ved ass \u2018an een the eat did eys nd, 4 * -™ = - -_ nr THE MONTREAL HERALD AND DAILY COMMERCIAL GAZETTE FRIDAY, MAY 11 me 7 shows Low inaceurate must have been the revious explorations, if that is the result arrived at between the 18th of April and the present time.The question, as it presented itself to me, is A VERY SERIOUS ONE, for this reason.I quite agree that if the Company and the Government were committed one way or the other we might look with very considerable contidence, though we would not give up our right of judgment, to à decision taken after full infor mation on the part of the Company as to which road was best for themselves; but it is clear now that before the Company had obtained information, and ut a time when it was quite uncertain whether proper means of crossing at the Kicking Îorse Pass and going into Kamloops across the Selkirks could be found, they had determined, in their minds, they would go that way and they determined to build their railway in thal direction.They determined to go on and spend their mouney\u2014or rather our money\u2014in that way, and the Government has acceded to that, and these many millions have been expended along, the line leading fo the Kicking Horse Pass, .and of course the Government has got to make the best of it.Of course, having allowed them not merely to go on and build the railway as a branch, but having al- \u201clowed them to build it as part of the main Îine, they approved the location, granted \u2018the subsidies, and having issued a large quantity of money on land, they have now to say to-night the Kicking Horse Pass is the best.If the Minister was right last year he ought to have reached his conclusion on proper evidence that the Kicking Horse Pass was rignt before he approved the location of a mile of railway beyond Moose Jaw Creek, or paid a dollar on that line.Now, Sir, I must confess that I AM NOT AT ALL SATISFIED with the remarks made on this subject in these various reports.In the first place if you take the Company round by the Big Bend these reports show that that road is at one end so much longer than the road across the Selkirks than even according to the bon.gentleman\u2019s latest information, the distance in mileage is a mere trifle, but even round by the Big Bend you will have grades of from seventy to ninety feet, the report says that, 50 that ou will have at this rate in order to go y Kicking Horse Pass in the first place ascending west of five miles of seventy-five feet over the Rockies, then you will have a grade on the western descent of twenty miles of 116 feet to the mile ; then you will have a long route by the Big Bend, which contains several grades of from seventy to ninety feet per mile, besides much very difficult work.Now, compare that with a railroad where the maximum grade is only fifty- two, and very little of that.But I say that those grades I have mentioned render it utterly impossible to compare a railway assing by the Biz Bend and Kicking Prorce Pass with the railway that the survey proposed, without coming to a conclusion m favour of the Yellowhead; but if you take the Kicking Horse Pass straight across the Selkirks, then you find a great advantage if the report 18 true.Major Rogers reports tual tue whole difficulty of work at the Selkirks could be concentrated in ten or twelve months ; but now we find it takes forty 1nouths, twenty on the east and twenty on the west.He reported 105 foot grades, but now it seems they will be too expensive and that it will take 116 foot rades.Bul we are told that the Central acific has as high grades.In one of the letters I have read it is stated that the Union Pacific lias such grades.Ido not see in the papers T have been able to look at any statement Of à grade higher than 80 or 90 feet on the Union Pacific.Iam not able to speak with positiveness, for I have not been ABLE TO GET THE INFORMATION.The hon.gentleman proposes in this contract to go by the Kicking Horse, giving us a grade of 116 feet to get down the Rockies in the west, and giving us two grades of © 116 feet, cach of these three grades being for twenty miles to get across the Selkirks.Well, I say he has not got authority to do it.I say the authority to approve the route through Kicking Horse Pass is not an authority to alter tlie terms of the contract to that extent.The terms of the contract were that the grades should be as good, at any rate, as the Union Pacific grades, and the hon.gentleman will have to alter the contract again to get further power.But he assumes (0 himself the rigi t, in case it turns out that the grades are more than the maximum of the Union Pacific grades, to go by\u2019that route, and these grades that we have an express bargain were not to be worse than the Union Pacific grades, it is now proposed shall be worse by twenty feet than the maximum of the Union Pacific, and these for very long stretches.I certainly admit some of the general propositions stated in the last report.I en- tirelv admit it is much better to have a concentrated steep grade at one point than to have a number of steep grades occurring at different points.It is obvious and proper.But if these grades are more severe, and they are now admitted to be more severe, than the standard which we stipulated for, I do not understand how the hon.genileman can propose to Parliament to accept the view that he has authority to create a grade of twenty-six feet WORSE THAN THE WORSE GRADES of that road which is to be our standard.But, as I said, the hon.gentleman committed himself, and his colleagues who acted for him committed him in September and again in November, and they decided absolutely to locate the line for the Kicking Horse Pass.Now, I think this has been an error of judgment.Early in the business, 50 Jung ago as in that same fall of 1881, the hon.First Minister made his speech, which referred to the new noticn of going to,.Calgary.The Pacific Railway Company decided they would deffect this live to the Selkirks, and that was their general policy.But then they wished to take the whole country into their net, and if any railroads were built by Canada in that country they must swallow them up unless they were built in the south ; and having decided that they wanted to keep to the south, they wanted to go at the cost of the Government and the country with their construction last yeur, and they induced the hon.gentleman to violate the pledge he had made to this House, and to take then along to the south of the Sagkatchewan after fhe decision on the subject of the Kicking Horse Pass.I maintain that having so done, it now having turned out that the saving by the Big Bend would \" be hardly anything in time, it having turned out that the grades on the track of the road are twenty-six feet more severe than the maximum contract grades, I maintain that that route ought not to be approved.But I have no doubt the Government is shut up to the APPROVAL OF THAT ROUTE by the course they pursue, Now there is much more to be said, but I am not able to say anything more.In the review of the operations of the Government in connection with the construction of this railway during this year, in the particular which Ihave just now pointed out, and in other particulars which I have pointed out\u2014in the particular of the eastern end, in the particular of the location of the western end from the Moose Jaw west, and in other regards, I maintain that the Government have shown themselves regardless .of the contract, and neglectful of the pledges it to sanction and give them authority to change the route of the railway.I maintain that the progress which has been made in the settlement of the North-West is not due to this construction.I maintain that it is due simply to a line having been built through the prairies of the North-West.; Mr.BLAKE concluded with some general observations in support of his polic of completing the work of building throug the prairie country first and sat down amid loud applause.ONE EXPERIENCE FROM MANY.I have been sick and miserable so lon, and had caused my husband s0 much trouble and expense, no one seemed to know what ailed me, that I was completely disheartened and discouraged.In this frame of mind I got a bottle of Hop Bitters and used them unknown to my family.I soon began to improve and gained so fast: that my husband and family thought tt strange and unnatural, but when I told them what had helped me, they said.\u201c Hurrah for Hop Bitters! long may they prosper, for they have made mother well, und us happy.\u201d\u2014The Mother.ON THIRTY DAYS\u2019 TRIAL- Tae Voutaic Berr Co.,Marshall, Mich., will gend Dr.Dye\u2019s Celebrated Electro- Voltaic Belts and Electric Appliances on trial for thirty days to men (young or old) who are afflicted with nervous debility, lost vitality and kindred troubles, guaranteeing speedy and complete restoration of health and manly vigor.Address as above.N.B.\u2014Norisk is incurred, as thirty days\u2019 trial is allowed.= A hy SES EIEIO) FOR THE Kidneys, Liver end Urinary Ovgans, The Best Blood Purifier.There is only one way by which any disense can be cured, and that is by roe moving the canse\u2014whatever it may be.The great medical authorities of the day declare thal nearly cvery disease is caused by deranged kidneys or liver.To restore these therefore is the only way by which health can be secured.Here is where WARNER'S SAFE CURE hias nchieved iis great reputation.It acts directly upon the kidneys and liver and by placing them in a healthy condition drives disease and pain from the system.For all Kidneys, Liver and Trinary troubles;

strong indeed, and I am not going to throw a wet blanket on any movement that has salvation for its object.You are quite right in ving prominence to the emotional element n our nature.Itis as natural as the intellectual, andI always, when in Kingston, advocated an appeal to it by the church.But ask yourself, have you and the other clergy ever striven in that direction?Have you ever thrown the churches open and free to the poor wayfarers seeking after God, if haply he may find him?Have you ever had short, bright services with addresses to the emotional nature of your parishioners?If not, if instead there has been a freezing respectability and a palronizing dispensin of the Gospel to the working classes, then think church methods should be tried before we fall into ways that are as yet untested by experience.ou are quite right in your efforts to give the movement a right direction, and I pray God you may be successful.The low party in the Church are the most decidedly hostile to it,

westward and an hour or so later returned and seemed to hover at the mouth for a short time, apparently undecided whether te come in ornot.She then turned about and put to sea again, without having made any signals.This curious action of a steamer is very unusual, though there have previously, but not recently, been one or two similar cases.OTTAWA CORRESPONDENCE.Jadges® Salaries \u2014 Factory

by a wound inflicted upon his head with some blunt instrument supposed to be in the hands of W.T.Dodson.When the North bound passenger train on the Virginia Midland Railroad reached Galveston station, about twenty-siX miles north of Danville, Dodson got aboard and was_at once arrested by Station Agent Scott and Conductor Gregg and by the former brought back to Danville on the south bound freight train.His arrest having been telegraphed, his coming on the freight train became commonly known.When it arrived a considerable crowd had collected at the depot.The prisoner was taken In charge by the Chief of Police, who had ; hurried with hima squad of policemen, rie into an omnibus, rapidly driven to Jail, and incarcerated.As the omnibus passed up Main striet, a tremendous crowd of people were gathered on the sidewalks, but no demonstrations were made.DODSON\u2019S CONFESSION.After the prisoner was lodged in a cell the Chief of Police, attended by Policeman Lowrie aud the jailer, went 1n to search his person and to see that Lhe was safely secur ed.With them Dodson entered into conversation and voluntarily unfolded the details of his horrid crime.He said he had recently insured his life for $5,500, which amount he desired his wife and children to get.Tothat end he conceived the scheme of putting a dead man\u2019s body into his dwelling house, which he was occupying alone, having sent his wife and children to her father\u2019s house, then setting fire to the house and vanishmg himself to Texas.By thus leaving the dead body to be mistaken for his remains, as if burned in the house, he thought he could secure the payment of the insurance money to his wife and children.In furtherance of his scheme he ew- ployed two burly negro men, whom he picked up on the street on Sunday, but whose naines he did not not know, though he would recognize one of them were he to see him again, to assist him.He bargained with thew to pay each $50 if they would on Sunday night bring a dead body to his house at a late hour; telling them he wanted the body for dissection.Ile gave the key of the house to these negro men, and said he would come in later and join them there.It happened that the weuther on Sunday night was the most tempestuous known in this latitude for years, and just suited for such an atrocious deed of diabolism as that here related.At one o'clock that night he went home and found the two men there, and with them a third negro whom he did not know.All three were sitting in his sleeping room.When he came in the two negroes he had employed knocked the third whom they had brought with them, in the head, and he fell aud died between the table and the dressing stand, where a pool of blood was found.By his direction his two negro assistants took the body up stairs to the half-storey room above and laid i on the floor.After they came down he paid them $50 each and dismissed them, and they left Lim alone in the house.HIS METHOD OF SETTING THE HOUSE ON FIRE.He thien, amid the howling of the raging tempest,, proceeded to complete his diabolical work.Taking some of the covering from his bed he went up stairs, with a dim lantern in his hand, and covered the body up in it.Upon it he poured a gallon of Kerosene.He then drew up the legs and so arranged then so as to hold a lighted candle between them.He placed halt a candle, six inches long, in position and lighted it, and then went back down stairs to his sleeping room.Here he saturated his bed with kerosene and placed the other half of the candle in position, so that when it burned down it would set the bed on fire.At this point he remarked that that was where he made a mistake, for he should have used a shorter piece of candle, which would have burned sooner and then the house would have burned down before daybreak.Near his bed, he said, he placed his watch and a bunch of keys to confirm tlie belief that the body, when found in the burned house, was his.Having completed these arrangements he left the house, the hour being two o'clock A.M.HIS WANDERINGS AFTER THE CRIME.He wandered about town an hour or so, and then set out on foot upen the line of the Virginia Midland Railroad.On Monday he walked to Chatham and spent the night there ; next morning he tried to get a newspaper to ascertain the effect of his work in setting his house afire, but he was unable to obtain a paper.He walked further on towards the line of the railroad, and at Galveston got on board the [train for the purpose only of procuring a newspaper, intending to get off at the next station.He said he intended, if he found from the newspaper that his scheme of burning had succeeded,to jump the country, go to Texas and start life anew under a new name; but if he failed he thought he might as well give himself up.On his person was found in currency nearly $150.The prisoner\u2019s story as to his two alleged negro accomplices excites intense interest, but it is not believed by some.His declaration that he does know their names and is entirely anacquainted with jtuem geems to preclude all clew to their dis covery, but everv effort will be made by the authorities to discover the bottom facts in this terrible story.\u2014New York Herald.CRIMES AND ACCIDENTS.SHERBROOKE, Que., May 10.\u2014Coroner Woodward has just returned from holding an inquest oun the body of Elmore Bruneau, killed at Oxford Copper and

Wheat Prospects.WASHINGTON, May 10, \u2014 The May returns of wheat to the Department of Agriculture make the condition compared with April, of the averages materially lower in New York, Michigan, Ohio and Illinois.Further injury was wrought by the frosts early in April, and in the more northern districts the real damage by March freezing was more fully disclosed as the snow and ice disappeared.The average is 77 for New York\u2014the depreciation being heaviest in Onondaga, Niagara, Genesee and Ontario counties\u2014 for Michigan 83; Ohio 62; for Illinois 66.Further loss is suffered by plowing up large areas in Ohio and Illinois.A reduction in Missouri, from 83 to 80 is reported.In Indiana the condition averages 75.New Jersey 101, the same as April.All the remaining Northern States show an improvement since April as well as the Pacific Coast and nearly all the Southern States.The average condition of the winter wheat is 834 against 80 in April.The loss in area from replanting in other crops may be assumed to reduce the prospect to that of April.The spring wheat area will not be com- lete till May 15, and will be reported on une 1st.The probable increase in Dakota will be 30 per cent.Minnesota reports 86 per cent.of last year\u2019s area already planted.An increase of 15 per cent.is reported from Washington Territory.It is not probable the increase in the spring wheat area will more than make good the loss of winter wheat acreage.The present prospects for winter wheat, in consideration of the reduced condition and acreage, is 20 per cent less than in May last, representing a loss of 77,000,000 bushels.A London agent on April 28th reports the improvement in European wheat prospects during the last month, The small area of spring sown wheat in England is thin and much of it will be displaced by barley.A reduced crop seems inevitable in western Europe.In Austria and Hungary the prospect is favourable for a medium crop.Returns of the progress in cotton planting show the work later than usual in every state.Free Trade Delegates.New York, May 10.\u2014The New York and Brooklyn Free Trade Clubs, to-night elected delegates to the free trade conference at Detroit, on 31st May.Theodore Rossevelt and Henry Ward Beecher, are among them.Effect of the Bricklayers\u2019 Strike.Curcaco, May 10.\u2014Unless the bricklayers\u2019 strike be ended within two weeks, 30,000 pasterers, carpenters, painters, etc, will be out of employment because of no buildings to work on.Heresy.WELLSVILLE, Ohio, May 10.\u2014Steuben- ville Presbytery has suspended Rev.W.W.McLane for heresy.He published a book denying that the Saviour offered himself as a sacrifice for sin, and denying the mediatoria! work of Christ.McLane made a long address in his own defenge, He will appeal to the General Assembly, FTAYTI.Insurgent Operations, Havana, May 10.\u2014Advices from Havti are conflicting.The true situation appears to be that Miragoane, which is defended by about 700 rebels holds out against 6,000 Government troops, while the rest of the Republic is comparatively quiet, although there is rumour that the town of St.Marc is in arms in favour of General Piquant.Six hundred [fugitive inhabitants of Miragoane reached Port au Prince on a Miragoane barque.They state that the rebels blew up a bridge at Miragoane with dynamite, killing 200 and wounding a like number.A boat with four men, which ran the blockake, has arrived at Kingston, carrying letters to Gen.Bazelais, assuring him that the force in Miragoane can resist a siege for four months, \u2014The first through ticket from St.Paul to Portland, Oregon, on the Northern Pacific was sold on Wednesday.\u2014The Central Iowa Railroad approximate earnings for April, 1883, were $100,- 805.38 ; do.1882, $82,044.81 ; increase, $18,760,562.£a a 4 TORY Amey, REED Ë à TRE CR E30 Hi 4 BE Ÿ ; 53 Ba INT E i!

common of the pul monary affections.Chronic bronchitis more often occurs later in life.When a cold settles on the lungs, the disease either ends in bronchitis, or pneumonia.If it ends in bronchitis, it usually passes offas 8 cold in the chest, and still the patient does not fell entirely well.He feels tired and languid, and is incapable of taking his usual amount of exercise, and experiences a shortness of breath, with more or less warmth in the palms of his hands.Soon after this a cough appears accompanied by an expectoration of thick mucous, followed by a 1ectic flush, loss of flesh and strength, and night sweats continue, when the patient assumes all the appearance of having 8 -genuine case of consumption.But this is simply catarrh of the lungs or chronic bronchitis.\u2018 In the later stages of the disease the mucous membrane of the larger bronchial tube softens, while in the smaller tubes and air cells of the lungs the mucous mem- ! brane becomes congested and inflamed.There are no cavities or tubercles in the lungs, but merely a wasting away of the large bronchial tubes.and death takes place trom obstruction of the bronchial tubes and air cells of the lungs.Tle pa tient dies from exhaustion and suffocation, being unable to expectorate the mucous which accumulates in the passage leading to the lungs.which 1n some cases is sticky and small in quantity, but more common\u201d ly copious, of a light straw or yellowish green.Oftentimes streaks of blood make their appearance in the mucous, and at times there is a disagreeable smell.Per sons thus afflicted are very liable to take cold, at which time the mucous becomes clear and frothy, and it is not uncommon- - y the case that the patient dies in one of these attacks.By this system of Medicated Iñhalatiom

estimate how the Canadian wheat crop of 1883 will compare with those of preceding years, it is beyond peradventure that the prospects are obviously discouraging.Letters from well attested sources of information at various points in the winter wheat raising districts of Ontario bespeak an eminently unsatisfactory outlook, some of which are so lugubrious in tone as to estimate the probable yield at 50 per cent.less than in 1882.Travellers just returned from the west corroborate in no small degree these gloomy forebodings and state that the wheat crop along the lines of railway has a sickly look.Farmers have beez compelled to plough up no unconsiderable percentage of the acreage sown, and in the remainder the growth has been kept back to an exceptionally large extent by the cold and backward season, which has given only téo good grounds for predictions of a poor crop.Certainly fine weather may greatly imvrove the outlook and save a total failure, but that material damage has been done is the most favourable conclusion to be drawn from the information now available.But it has been definitely ascertained that farmers are disposed to hold back what wheat remains on their hands until the crop question is settled one way or the other.Respecting the effect on the market here, nothing can yet be said, but in the west there is, undeniably, a widespread determination among holders and millers to enhance the cost of wheat and flour for the reasons mentioned, and they refuse to avail themeelves of any opportunities to sell, except when offered full prices.Whether the crop will be a failure or not, is at present a matter of conjecture, but the facts we have stated.are worth the consideration of all parties in the trade.CHE INMAN STEAMSHIP COMPANY.The following letter

\u201cIonic,\u201d the newest steamer of the White Star Line, of which fine vessel a full description appeared in the Liverpool Courier a short time back.The Royal visit took lace on Monday afternoon, lee \u201cIonic,\u201d Capt.E.O.Hailett, R.N., lying in the the Royal Albert Dock, London, His Royal Highness, attended by the Hon.Tyrwhitt Wilson, arrived alongside the steamship at half past four o\u2019clock, by special train from Liverpool street.He was received by Capt.Hallett, Mr.Cotter, Chairman of the New Zealand Shipping Company ; Mr.Studholme and Pare wortny, directors; Mr.Strickland, London manager of the same company ; and Mr.T.H.Ismay, managing director of the Oceanic Steam Navigation Company.The \u201cIonic,\u201d though the latest addition to the White Star Line, has been chartered by the New Zealand Shipping Company, to form one of the line of steamers which they are now despatching from London direct to New Dealand every month.The \u201cIonic\u201d was built by Messrs.Harland and Wolff, of Belfast.She is 440 feet long, 44 feet broad, 32 feet deep, with a gross registered tonnage of 5,000; her engines, also manufactured by Messrs.Harland and Wolff, are of 3,000 horse-power effective.The Prince made a close inspection of the vessel, paying special attention to the engine and refrigerating department.His Royal Highness congratulated Captain Hallett in having command of so fine a vessel, and one so perfectly fitted in every particular, -_\u2014\u2014.,\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 rte PRODUCE AND PROVISIONS.MoNTREAL, May 10 FLOUR\u2014No event calculated to divert the flour market in either direction, or to positively change the situation, has occurred in the flour market, which continues quiet and steady.The prospective outward movement to Gulf ports and the other side will be of large dimensions, and stocks in store at the end of the week will probably show a diminution if receipts do not increase.At the same time attention may be directed to promised larger receipts next week, especially of superior and extra, but as these grades are comparatively scarce here, no inconvenience is anticipated by receivers, with a few exceptions.Demand to-day was fairly active at fully maintained prices.Several good sized lots of superiors changed hands at $5 @ $5.05, or at prices somewhat better than holders talked of yesterday.On \u2019Change the following sales were reported :\u2014250 bris superior extra at $5.024; 250 brls do.at $5.05; 450 brls.extra at $4.90; 100 do at $4.92%; 125 brls spring extra at $4.90; 100 brls, medium bakers

all that can be counted on, at which figure sales are freely made.We quote 22c@24c.CHEESE\u2014The movement has not increased and the market keeps an exceedingly quiet appearance.Sales to the local

brought before the Police Magistrate yesterday on three different charges, for breaking open a door, for carrying a revolver, and for attempting to shoot.From the evidence given at the trial, it appears that Bergeron went home Wednesday night in a state of Intoxication, and his wife seeing him coming locked the door and refused to admit him.Being enraged at this, Bergeron went to a neighbour\u2019s house, and procuring an axe, commenced an attack upon the door and finally gained an entrance.His wife.more frightened than ever, locked herself in an inner room, while the neighbours, hearing the row, sent for the police.Constables McNulty and Carroll hastily went to the spot, where they found Mr.Mercier, the well-known bailiff of the Superior Courf, Mr.Mercier began to tell the constables about Bergeron\u2019s conduct, when the latter drew a revolver from his pocket and placing it at Mr.Mercier\u2019s stomach pulled the trigger.Officer McNulty, however, made a snatch at the revolver and caught it, his thumb by good luck coming between the cartridge and the hammer.The weapon was taken away from the would-be assassin and was found to be a new seven chambered revolver with all the barrels loaded with No.33 cartridges.When searched at the Police Station a full box of cartridges was found on the prisoner.The prisoner for the breaking of the door was ordered by the Police Magistrate to pay damages of $1.50 4nd a fine of $20 or two mouths, and for the other chirges was remanded.Bergeron is a notorious charactër and was only liberated from gaol a few days ago.Mr.Mercier is very gratefnl to the constable who, he i8 satisfied, saved his life.Especially fine lot of spring overcoatings L.Robinson\u2019s, 31 Beaver Hall Terrace.THE LATE EDWARD MACKAY, HIS

chair), Laurent, Brown, Genereux, Mooney and His Worship the Mayor.Afler the minutes of the last meeting were read and confirmed.The Chairman stated that the first order of the day was to consider the report of the Road Committee concerning the permanent paving of certain streets in the city of which we have already made mention.His Worship the Mayor stated that he hoped the Finance Committee would not conour in this report, as the streets named in the report were about to be widened and that, therefore, there was no need of laying new flagstones \u2018n those streets, and he further stated that with regard to the paving of the middle of the streets that the corporation had no block stone which would answer the purpose except a certain kind, which would have to be imported from Seotland and at a great price.He said that the Road Committee were about to expend about $175,000 pou the widening of St.Joseph street, 3t.Mary and St.Lawrence streets,while other streets were more in need of being paved.Ald.Laurent stated that with regard to the places where the present paving stones were about to be laid the streets were not going to be widened in those parte, and that perhaps the widening of the streets would not be done for 15 or 20 years to come.His Worship the Mayor thought it would be well and satisfactory to all to impose a certain tax yearly on the proprietors on St.Lawrence Main street for the paving and widening of the street, until the whole amount would be paid.Ald.Grenier stated that he fully concurred with the opinion of the Mayor with regard to St.Lawrence Main street, and further stated that there were several other streets in the city that needed to be paved more than the streets named in the report, for instance he referred to St, Paul and Commissioners\u2019 streets, which would not be widened for some.time at least, and wére in néed of \u2018te-paving more than any other street.He finally stated that with regard to the thoroughfares he named that something ought to be done and done as soon as possible.Ald.Mooney wae in favour of paving St.Lawrence Main street on account of the great amount of traffic now carried on in that street and, stated that the widening would not take place for 5, 10, or 15 years yet and that, in the meantime, it needed paving.Ald.Brown agreed with the Chairman in stating that St.Paul and Commissioners\u2019 street needed paving more than any other street.Ald.Laurent moved concurrence in the report of the Road Committeehe Chairman stated he hoped the committee would consider the report well before adopting it, and he objected to adopting the streets named in the report.Ald.Laurent thought that this statement showed a want of confidence in the Road Committee, and stated that if there were any other streets in need of paving, that he would be satisfied to look after them.His Worship the Mayor thought it would be well to refer back the report to the Road Committee for their re-consideration.Ald.Brown moved in amendment to Ald.Laurent\u2019s motion, that St.James, St.Paul, Craig and Commissioners streets be paved, and that # of the cost be paid by the proprietors.The amendment was carried by.the casting vote of the chairman, Ald.Laurent and Moonuey voting no and Ald.Genereux aud Brown voting yes.The Chairman then took up the second order of the day, which was a letter from the Sheriff concerning the appointment.of Mr.Richard as Bailif, The Sheriff also submitted a claim of $7,963 for the support of lunatics.The Chairman stated for the information of the Mayor his opinion with regard tothe services of Mr.Richard as bailiff; and further remarked that now the Sheriff had eleven bailiffs under his control, and that Mr.Richard would now only get one case out of eleven, de he would have to take his turn.The Committee finally resolved that the Treasurer and the Chairman be instructed to communicate with the Sheriff concern- mg the bailiffs\u2019 letters.A report was then read from the Road Committee, in which that Committee sought to rectify an error in regard to the widening of Inspector street.After a short discussion, the Committee resolved to approve of the Road Committee\u2019s report.THE GRAND TRUNK QUESTION, A letter was then read from Mr.Hickson, in regard to the Grand Trunk Railway question, which was as follows :\u2014 To Chas.Glackmeyer, Esq., City Clerk, Montreal: SIRr,\u2014I had the honour to receive, on the 20th ultimo, your communication of the same date addressed to me by order of the Finance Committee of the city.Before referring to the proposition contained in the resolution passed at the meeting of the Finance Committee on the 26th, I desire to thank the members of that Committee for the consideration given to the matter referred to in your letter.The last paragraph of the resolution passed by the Committee, stipulating that the Grand Trunk Company shall hold itself responsible in the sum of three hundred thousand dollars to be paid to the city in case of a failure to erect a passenger statlon creates a difficulty, for the simple reason that it is not competent for the Directors of the Company to enter into such an engagement, it being beyond their powers ag trustees for the proprietors of the railway.I would respectfully suggest for the consideration of the Committee and the Council that the exchange of the stock certificates of the St.Lawrence & Atlantic Company, now held by the city, for ordinary stock certificates of the Grand Trunk Company for $100,~ 000 be at once made.That the said certificates be held \"by the city on the understanding that if the Company shall erect at Bonaventure street a passenger station, before the end of 1885, the cost of securing which and the requisite facilities connected therewith shall amount to not less than $300,000, the said stock certificates for $400,000 shall be surrendered to the Company.If tt would be more agreeable to the Committee and the Council to have the stock certificates at once sold, I think it can be arranged to find a purchaser for them at $100,- 000.In the event of this course being adopted it would be expected that the city would hand over to the Company the said $100,000 with interest, on the fompletion of the station in the terms stipulated.I submit these proposals entirely without rejudice to the company\u2019s legal rights should Æhoey.not pe accepted.Should they be acceptable to the Committee and Council, I.shadl be prepared to at gnee recommend them to the acceptance of the Directors of the Grand Trunk Company.: I gm, Sir, our obedient servant, J.HICKSON.General Manager.Ald.Grenier stated to the Committee ' that-Ald.Laurent and himself had a conference with Mr, Hickson, at which it was understood perfectly that the station would be erected on the old site, and not further west.Hg regommended to the inance Comfniftee that they make a report to Council recommending the acceptation of Mr.Hickson\u2019s proposal.The Company to pay the city $100,000 cash, and to erect a new station by the end of 1885, at which time the city will reimburse that sum without interest.The Chairman also stated to the Committee that he had another proposition to lay before them, which was made to him confidentially by Mr.Hickson.He then requested the members of the Press to retire, and the remainder of the meeting was of a private nature.At the conclusion of the meeting, however, we learned from the Chairman that the question was still in statu quo, the | next Wednesday, May 16th.Chairman, Ald.Brown and laurent b:ing appointed to hold another couference with r.Hickson on the question.THE CITY OF MONTREAL AND G T R To the Editor of the MONTREAL HERALD: SIrn,\u2014 Your neighbour the Gazette has a leader this morning upon the city\u2019s.claim upon the G.T.R.and very strongly advocates the case of the latter.Without discussing the question in a legal point of view, he: doubts the validity of the city\u2019s \u2018 alleged \u201d claim in law, or that it could be coliected \u2018\u2018 even if a judgment should be obtained \u201d Those who have followed this discussion are aware that legal men have pronounced the claim of the city perfectly good, and it has been stated that a judgment has been obtained; at the same time, Mr.Hickson denies that the city has any claim whatever upon the G.T.R.It is pleaded that in view of the immense advantage Montreal has derived from the Grand Trunk Railway, it should abandon its claim to the repayment of the amount of assistance given to it by loan, thirty years ago.If, however, the city has no valid claim, why should it be called upon, so pathetically, to abandon it ?That, in fact, the advantages of the railway to the city are worth many times the million of dollars in question.\u201d Admitted, but why discuss the relative values, if the city has no claim, and cannot collect it if it had one ?Iu justification of the plea of great advantages, &c., the contrast is presented of the present proud position of the city, and what it would now be, \u201c were it possible to wipe out the existence of the G.T.R., with all the incidences of advantage to this communi v.Again, I admit it fully, but is the Gazette, or the new director of the Midland Railway, the President of the Board of Trade, preparel to assert, that if we had not the G.1'.R., we should have had no other railway facilities?Let us glance, however, at the present proud position of Montreal.Freight engagements are made in Liverpool to all the western Canadian cities, passing our own doors, for from one-quarter to one- third less cost than for delivery here by our one beneficent railway, and through freight will be taken from Detroit or Stratford to Portland or Boston via Montreal for the same or lesa cost that for delivery in Montreal.This, then, is our proud position! and the explanation is at hand; \u201c this is not a competing point,\u201d we have our railway, and only one practical ly, since the G.T.R.controls all the outlets, as it would swallow up every inlet, if it were possible to do so.The Gazette further represents that while itis of importance to the city that the G.T.R.should have à station \u2018\u2018suitable to the growing wants of the great current of passenger travel,\u201d it is not especially important to that company! and the past is adduced in proof of 1t.At the same time, he admits, that neither the city nor the company have reason to be proud of the present station, nevertheless it answers,\u201d he says, \u201cthe actual wants of the former, und the latter has had no option but to put up with it.\u201d He goes on to say that there is serious doubt that the G.T.R., having regard to * claims in other directions.\u201d would Le disposed to spend so Jarge asum as that contemplated by the Finance Cammittee, \u201cexcept in the settlement of claims.\u201d What the phrase \u2018claims in other directions\u201d may imply, considering our proud position, I cannot divine; but I am moral- lv certain that but for this claim, which Mr.Hickson says is no claim, we would have liad a suitable passenger station long since, for years ago Sir Henry Tyler tole his shareholders that the company had a considerable amount in bonds not issued, because the company had no use for the money.In conclusion, permit me to say that in my opinion a great deal of buncome has been spoken and written with reference to this matter ; and whilel will yield to no one else in my high appreciation of the advantages of railway facilities, and those furnished by the G.T.R.especially.I fully believe that Moutreal has Peon as beneficial to the railway as that has been to the city, and for one I do not believe that the British and only shareholders of the company brought their rails and business to this city for our exclusive advantage.Now, I donot object to the proposed settlement, but I object to the false pretences, if they are false.Either the city has a just claim, or it has not ; ifit has, let it be frankly conceded, and the best arrangement made to settle the matter speedily ; if it has no claim, then let that be clearly shown, and so end the discussion.As to a station, if a decent station is needed for the accommodation of the travelling public, certainly not exclusively for the citizens of Montreal, then let one be built, and that without delay.Maney.AMUSEMENTS.ACADEMY OF MUSIC.BARLOW & WILSON\u2019S MINSTRELS.Notwithstanding the unfavourable weather there was a very large audience at the Academy last night to witness the performance of the Barlow, Wilson & Co.s Minstrels.They are successful rivals of Haverly\u2019s in many respects.There is one thing we do complain of and that is the mentioning of woinen\u2019s names\u2018on the stage and in the coarse manner in which a certain lady\u2019s was last night in the concluding part of the programme.Though now before the public as an actress she is entitled to respect, and the mixing up of her name with the Heir Apparent to the British Crown and other gentlemen, will be condemned here and meets with no countenance.This so-called musical satire is a miserable failure in everyway.' It is coarse, and it would require.a strong microscope to find the wit or satire.We strongly advise its discontinuance during the troupe\u2019s tour through Canada.As for the other portion of the programme it is capital at all'points.The end men were very amusing, Frank Cushman being as of yore a tower of strength.Ballads were well sung by Charles Temple and Stanley Vernon, and the comic honours were divided between George Wilson and Luke Schoolcraft.The olio introduced the usual song and dance, drill and clog exercise, in which Barney Fagan carries off the laurels, and no one will dispute his right to the title of champion dancer.Schoolcraft and Coes were heartily Applanded in a sketch and their acrobatic featd \u201cwere capital.Crawford and McKisson were very funny and were followed by Wood and West in droll antics on roller skates, which was most laughable and created enthusjasm.plause.The Clipper Quartet gave ad to respond to hearty encores.The show is a good one and we trust the ob- Jjectionable part pointed out will be eliminated from the programme.BOSTON IDEAL OPERA.This Company will begin an engagement of three nights at the caderoy of Music he operas to be presented are Fatinitza,\u201d Mascot\u201d and \u2018\u2018 Fra Diavolq\u201d The artists who will appear are Marie Stone, Graldine Ulmar, athilde Phillipps, Lizzie Burton, Tom Karl, Herndon Marsell, Myron W.Whit- The four aces, Talbert, Tierney, Wilson\u2019s eccentricities created much ap Pleasing musical plantation sketch and hey, H.C.Barnabee, St.H.MacDonald and George Frothingham.All these peo- pe.have admirable reputations in the nited States, and many of them have been heard here in concert and oratorio.The Companv numbers upwards of 60 people, and carries a complete chorus and orchestra.THEATRE ROYAL.GENERAL TOM THUMB.Our theatre-goers who have not attended the Royal this week are still afforded several opportunities of seeing the immortal Tom Thumb, as the performances will be repeated to-day and to-morrow, both after- woon and evening, while on Saturday after noon a grand matinee will be given.The performance of Saturday evening will close the engagement, and as this is probably the last time that the General will visit the city no one should fail to attend.¢ THE MAID OF ARRAN.\u201d The above drama will be produced at the Royal during the week commencing Monday, the 15th, and is spoken of as a great attraction.PERSONAL.Messrs.E.Wragge and W.W.Beatty, Toronto, are registered at the Windsor otel.Among the arrivals at the Windsor yesterday were D.P.McLaurin and wife, St.Paul, Minn;

Amos Rowe and the Winnipeg Times are told that they were not authorized to speak for the Government, but that the Government respects fheir independence, and would not punish them or any other paper for an exhibition of that invaluable class of political goods.The independence of the Press, generally, was praised, and a sound principle laid down in regard to the relations of the Press with the Government.So all the parties to the discussion are happy, perhaps Mr.Woodworth the happiest of all, since he has subceeded in drawing the world's attentions to that wicked sinner, Amos Rowe, and Sir John had, in effect, declared that Amos Rowe spoke after the manner of vain men when he announced that his message in regard to the Manitoba olections was from \u201cthe Government.We would advise, Amos Rowe to make his peace with D.B.Woodworth, who is not a man to be needlessly attacked, or even carelessly trified witn.Once on a time, the Government of the day, in Nova Scotia, succeeded in expelling Mr.Woodworth from the House of Assembly, because of his aileged failure | to make good certain charges preferred by him against the Hon.W.B.Vail, then \u2018Provincial Secretary; but Mr.Woodworth\u2019s constituents immediately sent him back to the Legislature, and he soon sucpeeded in expelling the Vail Government from power imsiead.Mr.Woodworth, in good temper, is credited with being the most genial fellow going.Mr.Woodworth, on the warpath, is understood to be an exceedingly dangerous customer.It is unfortunate for Amos Rowe that so early in life he has forfeited the friendship of Mr.Woodworth, as, if rumour speaks truly, this gentleman never forgets.For the Censervative party in the great North-West the spectacle of two of their gladiators stripped in the arena and waging war to the death may be a stirring scene ; one calculated to send a sensation even through the nerves of the hardened readers of those exciting dime novels which chronicle the astounding deeds of valour of the brave frontiersman, or the abounding cruelties of the Pawnee or the Blackfoot.But looking to the future of the great North-West, with its illimitable possibilities of wheat and cattle and coal and silver, and politicians, and having regard to the stability of the Confederation itself,\u2014to say nothing of the cost of running the Ottawa parliamentary machine for legitimate business alone \u2014it would be fair to all the interests involved if these Conservative braves would bury their respective hatchets, and smoke several pipes of peace, or perform such other needful ceremonies as are appropriate to the country, and .to the termination of this cruel war.The Provincial Rights question, the Disallowance question, the Orange question, the national and\u2019 sectional cries wnich sometimes fill the air, put a sufficient strain upon this Confederation of ours, without the introduction of such momentous and.marrow seeking questions as those involved in Amos Rowe calling himself an \u201corgan,\u201d and the Winnipeg T%mes attacking Mr.Dewdney and Mr.Woodworth, to make no mention of Mr.Rykert.The line must be drawn somewhere, and we believe the country is prepared to draw it at Woodworth versus Rowe, whose surname is Amos.A POST OFFICE WAR.In the city of New York, as well as in other importaut centres of the United States, considerable, and at the same time lucrative, business is dene by individuals and, in seme cases, by companies in the direction of small parcels and letter delivery.The result has been to materially diminish the Post Office receipts from a source that is calculated to be the most productive of profit, the Department being compelled to do all the non-paying business, compensation for which was naturally anticipated from the other source.The attention of the Post- master-General having been directed to the circumstance that the receipts at New York were insufficient to meet expenses, enquiry brought out the fact which we have mentioned.Attorney- General Brewster gave it as his opinion that private post offices were illegal and their business should be stopped.The law which it is claimed has been violated provides that\u201c ne person shall establish any private express for the conveyance of letters or packets, or in any manner cause or provide for the conveyance of the same by regular trips or at stated periods, over any post-route which is or may be estab- of our Dominion.The Govern- t offending or aiding or assisting therein shall for each offence be liable to a penalty of $150.Provided, nothing herein contained shall be construed as prohibiting any person from receiving and delivering to the nearest post office or postal car mail matter properly stamped.\u201d On Friday last a raid upon two of these illicit establishments was inaugurated, and, as a consequence, over 60,000 letters were seized in the hands of carriers and in those of sert- ers at the respective irregular offices.It seems that circulars and statements from commercial houses are accustomed to be delivered at half the ordinary postal rate, and that their mode of delivery ensures more attention to them han if they were received by the ordinary mails.According to Post Office Inspector Newcombe the two offices which were raided together with the United States Circular and Delivery Company carried enough matter to deprive the Government of an annual revenue of half a million of dollars ; and, he added, that frequently the private post officers did not deliver the circulars at all, but disposed of them at the junk shops.The claim of the Government does not in any way geem to be an unreasomable one that, were it not for the profits on local deliveries, it would be impossible to supply the distant service at the one uniform rate, as there are actually letters to be carried for three cents the real cost of whose transmission and handling is nearer three dollars than three cents.The Post Office service is a part of the paternal functions which the authorities are bound to discharge and therefore they have every reason to object to any interference with their business.The same principle obtains in a measure with respect to the regulation of local and through railway fares, and were it not for the profits un the former it is certain that travel would be restricted, and many articles of utility would for the same reason be prevented from reaching the hands of the consumes The New York World, however, fails to regard the matter in this way and contends that the \u201creal lesson to be learned from the diversion of postal business to private companies is not that the private companies ought to be suppressed.It is that if private persons can make profit by delivering letters more promptly, more frequently and more cheaply than that service is done by the Government, the Government ought to improve its service and deliver letters so promptly, frequently and cheaply as to put private cempeti- tion out of the question.Everybody will prefer to intrust his letters to the Government, other things being equal,\u201d This argument would be a forcible one were private companies prepared to do the business for the same uniform rate which the Government charges; but the fact is that as matters now stand a heavier rate of taxation must of necessity be imposed or the postal rates be augmented, unless the service be carried on as at present.It isthis.conviction which has doubtless led the authorities to commence their raids.Possibly, however, Gur contemporary in ita gushing affection for the powers that be at Washington seeing no likeliheod of a further reduction of the tariff, thinks that additional post office expenditures would have the effect of materially reducing the Federal surplus under the burden of which it continues to groan.No one would for a moment object to any improvements that could be effected in the postal service both here and in the United States, but there are economic considerations in connection with every public work which should never be altogether lost sight of.A NATIONAL ENTERPRISE.In to-day\u2019s issue of the HERALD will be found the conclusion of Mr.Blake's speech in reply to Sir Charles Tupper\u2019s explanations on the Pacific Railway.The Hzraup, if we mistake not, is the only Montreal journal that has published both of these very able speeches.Hon.J.H.Pope followed Mr.Blake, bis remarks being brief and principally devoted to showing that Mr.Blake's comparison of the rates of freight imposed by the Canadian Pacific Railway, with the rates charged by other railways, was erroneous and misleading.To Mr.Pope's figures we shall refer again; meantime we desire to point out that only good to the public interests and to the interests of the Railway Company, will result from the thorough ventilation which the Company's operations, and its relations to the Government, have received at the hands of those gentlemen.Afterall has been said that can be said, pro and con, the \u201cinteresting fact remains that this great national work is being pushed forward with an energy and a success of which no one ever dreamed five yearsago.The vast prairie is being traversed from end to end ; but rapidly as the work of track- laying has progressed, the emigrant and settler are following hard after the railway engine.The capital of the Government and the means of the Company have united to bring about a development of railway enterprise which has never been surpassed.There cannot be a Canadian who does not feel pride in the fact that a gigantic work has been laid hold of with a giant's strength, and that results, the accomplishment of which would have taxed the resources of an Empire, are being worked out by a country which is called a \u201ccolony,\u201d and in a manner which justifies the calculations of the promoters, and redounds to the credit of the Dominion, The courage, the nerve, the hope, which were necessary to the undertaking and the successful execution of so mighty a work have had a stimulating influence on all the enterprises The example of the multitudinous and complicated details shown by the Company\u2019s officers, cannot fail to impress on the present generation of Canadians the lesson that all things are possible to the clear headed, stout hearted, resolute men of action.If Canadians admire the courage and gameness of Sir Charles Tupper and the thoroughness and eloquence with which Mr.Blake deals with the weightest questions; if the | achievements of these gentlemen are an inspiration to the men who are coming forward, to take thoir places eventually in Parliament, may it not be said of a great national enterprise such as the Canadian Pacific Railway \u2014the greatest undertaking of the kind in the world\u2014that its successful accomplishment must contribute in no small degree to elevate not only Canada in the aggregate but Canadians individually in the estimation not nrerely of the world abroad but of Canadians themselves § In the presence of such triumphs as Canada can boast of\u2014in railway construction, in her merchant marine, in her steamship lines, in manufactures, in the field of intellectual accomplishment, etc., \u2014 there should come an end to that uncalled for self- depreciation in which too many Canadians have been accustomed to indulge.ORDERS were received at Aldershot yesterday, to send troops and police to the Curragh Camp, in Ireland, instantly.em eee ON the 17th instant a dinner takes place at the Windsor, under the auspices of Le Club National.Hon.Messrs.-Laurier and Laflamme and other leaders, with the fifteen \u201c plucky fellows \u201d in the Legislative Assembly, are expected to be present.Tue SS, \u201c City of Rome,\u201d which was refused by the Inman Steamship Company because it was alleged she did not come up to the specifications, has recently undergone important improvements and alterations under the direction of her present owners, the Anchor Line.It is antidipated that she will in the future far outrival her record.ES THE Southern Exposition, so open at Louisville, Kentucky, on August 1, promises to be a success.The one held some time ago at Atlanta, Ga, had a most beneficent eflect, and it is to be expected that similar results will follow the present .undertaking.Improved methods and economies, not only in cotton culture were the result of the Atlanta gathering, the North and Seuth were placed in a position to understand each others capabilities aud requirements, and generally a better feeling was created.rm \u2014\u2014 i \u2014\u2014 As will be seen by our report of the Finance Committee cf the City Corporation, Mr.Hickson, on the part of the Grand Trunk Railway Company, has forwarded a letter submitting an important proposal on the subject of the claim of the City against the company, and the erection of the new and much wanted assenger station.Mr.Hickson offers to bave a new aud commodious depot, costing not less than $300,000, erected by the end of 1885, agreeing to advance $100,000 to the city on condition that, if the depot is put up within the specified time the Corporation shall repay the $100,000 with interest.The city in such event would be expected to relinquish the claim which it makes against the road.A Committee was appointed to confer with the railway authorities and it is to be hoped the result will be an amicable arrangement satisfactory to all parties.DEATHS.TreacEy\u2014On the 9th instant, Martin Treacey, aged 67 years, a native of the County Galway, Ireland.Funeral from his late residence, corner McCord and Ottawa streets, on Friday, at 8.30 a.m., to St.Ann\u2019s Church, thence to the R.C.Cemetery.Friends and acquaintances are respectfully invited to at tend.u LoRANGER\u2014In this city, on Tuesday, ~th May, 1883, Rosalie Laframboise, wife of the Hon.Judge L.O.Loranger, and daughter of the late Judge Laframboise.Funeral on Friday, 11th instant, at 9.15 a.m., from her late residence, 31 St.Hubert street, to the Church of Notre Dame, and thence to the Roman Catholic Cemetery.Friends and acquaintances are respectfully invited to attend without further notice.Nem Aduertisements, CANADA LIFE ASSURANCE CO.The - Directors have decided to keep the Lists of the year open until THE 21ST INST.Assurers JOINING by THE 19th INSTANT, WILL SHARE IN Three Years Profits AT THE DIVISION IN 1885.Manager of Prov.Quetec Branch: J.W.MARLING.Inspector of Agencies Prov.Quebec: P.LAFERRIERE.Montreal District Agent : JAMES AKIN.May 11 112 BELLHOUSE, DILLON & CO., Iron, Steel, Railway Supply and Chemical Agencies, HAVE REMOVED TO 9 CUSTOM HOUSE SQUARE.May 11 r112 Steam to Newfoundland and Cane Breton, ERE = The Al TINTERN ABBEY is intended to load for St.Johns, Nfld., on or about the 16th instant, calling at Sydney, C.B., should sufficient freight offer.For Freight, apply to LORD, MUNN & CO., 12 St.Peter Street.May 11 u 112 May 10 Nothat they bear their corporate mark, thus : CORPORATE \u2014\u2014\u2014101-\u2014\u2014- SAVAGE & LYMAN HAVE REMOVED TO 247 ST.JAMES ST.- Two Doors North of H, MORGAN & CO?°S iL JOSEPH RODGERS & SONS.(LIMITEID) CUTLERS, By Special Appointment to Her 6 NORFOLK STREET, JOSEPH RODGERS & SONS beg to caution the public against gpurious goods i i e and made to iinitate their genuine manufactures.;

Aduvertisements.If You Want a Piano Get the Best.It is a fact not known to all our readers that the price of the New York Weber Piano (universally admitted to be the finest musical instrument in the world), as sold by the N.Y.Piano Co., is very little more than the price asked for other pianos not costing one-half so much to manufacture.The New York Musical Trade Re view, who investigated the subject, states that the wages paid by the house of Weber was ten per cent.higher than was paid by any other manufacturer in America, and nearly double the price paid by the leading manufacturers in Europe.In an interview with Mr.Wm.Steinway he admitted that the wages paid by Weber for skilled labour exceeded that paid by any other lieuse in the United States.Notwithstanding these facts, we often hear of large prices being paid to agents for second, third or fourth rate pianos, \u2018most of which can now be purchased from the anu facturers for a little over half the cost of pianos like the Weber.Pianos, like nations and individuals, have their day\u2014the Stodarts of thirty years ago were superseded by Chickering, and he was in turn superseded by Steinway; now Steinway and all have to give place to Weber, who, the New York Iribune says, can hardly be said to havearival.The Tribune says, the wealthy and fashionable people of New York will have no other piano, and if Weber\u2019s instruments do not adorn their drawing-rooms it indicates a lack of musical taste or of the means necessary to procure it.Now that the young ladies are returning from school, the purchase of a piano is an important item in the family history, those parents who are able should procure the best.It is quite likely they |, will find the difference in cost very little, but the difference in tone will be very great.A Weber piano is not an article of furniture, it isin the highest sense an in- gtrument of music which will last for a generation and be a source of pleasure to the family, and the friends who visit them, while it lasts.The name (Weber, New York) on the key board of the piano stamps the family as possessing taste and musical appreciation, if not wealth.For WEBER, DECKER &SON,

and I said we should not permit the resources intended to be devoted to the construction of the contract line, to be used in buying branches and extensions which might not be essential to the contract, and which might prove unfavourable to this country.Some further information has been obtained since I spoke.The Canada Central has been acquired and the financial condition of that entegprise is, first mortgage bonds, £500,000 sterling, or $2,500,000; second mortgage bonds overdue, £200,000 sterling, or $1,000,0000; first preference stock, $1,400,000, assumed at.par; ordinary stock outstanding, $1,200,300: to be issued $23,000; or a total of $2,850,000, assumed at 50 cents on the dollar, making $934,000.Then there is the agreement to pay certain other obligations outstanding for stock or otherwise, making the price to the Canadian Pacific Railway Company of the Canada Central, $6,000,000.Of these $2,500,000 stand on mortgage, making the sum to be provided for in this purchase some $3,500,000.Now 120 miles were built almost entirely by the Government subsidy of $12,000 a mile, and the price seems to me greater than will be paid for with the interest of dividends or profit.At $6,000,000 the Montreal & Ottawa line is also acquired, including the Aylmer branch and the St.Jerome branch, and if we include the rolling stock, we have $4,000,000 paid, $4,000,000 practically in cash, and $6,000,- 000 in yearly payments, and the balance of $3,000,000 is left on mortgage, and these $3,000,000, with $2,500,000, make the $5,000,000, which, in their prospectus, the company declare will be mortgaged on the extensions which they have purchased.These two purchases in the east come to $10,000,000, of which $6,500,000 have to be presently provided for, or have been provided for by the company.Then I see that they have made ANOTHER LITTLE PURCHASE.They have brought the Laurentian Railway, together with the St.Lin Branch, and there again you find a purchase which I cannot connect with the true interests of the Canadian Pacific Railway Company.They bargained for the large ro.through the then First Minister of Quebec, the present Secretary of State; and they bargained for the small road through L.A.Senecal, the President and practical proprietor of the road.That little branch received about $60,000 in aid from the Quebec Government.It was to have gol some $59,000 from municipalities, and there were shares to the amount of $45,000 subscribed for, making a total of $160,000.Still the road only\u2019 cost about $140,000, and the contractor handed over the bonds to Col.King and Mr.Hurteau, at two different times, and apparently ail that was advanced by those to whom the bonds ultimately fell was about $60,000.Mr.Senecal became the proprietor of all but a fraction of them, for about $60,000 or $70,000.In that position, at the same time when the large sale is made, the small is made; and the Canadian Pacific Railway Company de- quires the Laurentian Railway and agrees to pay these bonds in full with interest upon them calculated at 7 per cent., which has not been paid for a long number of years ; so that the price would be nearly $400,000 for the St.Lin branch, represeat- ing an investment to the vendor of $60,000 or $70,000\u2014for which he receives nearly $400,000 for a road costing perhaps $140,- 000 to construct, and being worth no more.There you find an investment for which the country has to pay, and if this is to be treated as part \u2018of the main line, it has'to pay 10 per cent.profit on it.ir CITARLES TUPPER\u2014The hon.gentleman will see that the statement which I have read declares that not a single dollar of the money has been expended in relation to any of the works east of Calleuder.All further purchases by the company not only pay their working expenses, ut the entire interest on the cost of the works.The fands of tne Canadian Pacific Railway Company, as derived from the Government of Canada, anvthing in relation to anything east of Callender.Mr.BLAKE\u2014The Parliament of Canada has agreed that the Canadian Pacific Railway Company shall have the tolls kept up to such a point that it shall reap enough to pay the working expenses, the interest on its debt, and ten per cent.on capital, and, theretore, WE ARE DEEPLY, VITALLY INTERESTED in what that capital account is, and what the acquisitions of the company are.I have to do with the extraordinary unfortunate powers which were granted to the Canadian Pacific Railway Company.We are deeply interested in that Company, in considering\u2019 these purchases.In order, as far as I can see, to get a line from Montreal to Callender, 347 mises long, the company has acquired some 440 miles of railway in main line and branches, because there is another little bit of road, the St.Eustache Railway,making a total of about $10,700,000 including a certain sum for the works included with these works\u2014of capital a Ried in this way\u2014not all applied in cash.Now, $7,000,000 or $8,000,000 must have been paid or settled in some way on this account, and if the resources of the company are strained, I ask whether this may not be largely attributed to its having launched out into the eastern part of the country.The hon.gentleman says that these roads pay working expenses and interest charge.= The traffic is estimated by the company in its prospectus on the eastern section at $3,200 a mile.Ido not know WHAT THE OPERATING COST 18, but I am not very far wrong in estimating this cost at 70 per cent.on the gross returns.That would give you a net sum of $460,000, or 43 per cent.on the capital invested.At any rate on the bulk of this amount, and the company contend on all of it we have to secure them in ten per cent.There is not enough money to free the country from these tells, so that ten per cent.shall be received.Before the mortgages are paid the increase will be about $6,500,000, on which ten per cent.\u2018will have to be paid, or $650,000.Did I say $6,500,000?I retract.According to the hon.gentleman\u2019s statement to-night, the capital will be represented by stock issued at 60, and therefore the capital upon these roads will appear to be a much larger sum than $6,500,000.It would be utterly impossible to pay a dividend out of their earnings, and therefore these transactions involve a further charge on the trade of the North-West Territories for all time to come.As to the apparent connection between the company and the Credit Valley, and the Ontario and Quebec, I invited information.The company has made a return stating that they have no connection whatever with the Credit Valley and the Ontario and Quebec.That is the answer to the return, but there ie a cable telegram which preceded the return a few days, signed by H.Tyler and addressed to Mr.Hickson, and by George Stephen addressed to Van Horn, in which these potentates declare that an arrangement has been made under which the Canadian Pacific Railway Company agrees to give the Credit Valley and the Ontario & Quebec to the Grand Trunk ; but they have nothing to do with these roads\u2014at least that is what they tell the House.They say they have nothing to say, but the President has telegraphed that they have agreed to give them to the Grand Trunk.Are we to believe Mr.'Drinkwater, who says they have nothing to do with these roads, or are we to believe the President who agrees to sell?Or are we to believe that the President agrees to sell without having the power to sell ?On the whole I believe the President, that they have some connection with the Credit Valley and the Ontario & Quebec.It appears that they are to acquire these roads, or, at least, they are tolease them perpetually and pay interest on their securities.Here again we have another illustration of the mode in which burdens are being placed on the North-West by virtue of the powers given to this company.THE CREDIT VALLEY RAILWAY is about 183 miles long, and cost somewhere about $20,000 a mile, or $3,700,000 in all.How was that cost provided 7 Aid from the Government of Ontario, $457,500 ; aid from municipalities in Ontario, $1,165,000 ; stock paid up, $500,000 ; making $2.082,000.If we deduct that from $3,700,000, we have $1,600,000 to Le provided for; and bonds were issued to the amount of $20,600 per mile, and were ledged for the raising of this $1,600,000.t appears from papers on the table that Mr.Stephen got $1,650,000, about 45 cents on the dollar.According to the statistics of the hon, genileman the railway earned $335,900, while its expenses were $289,000, leaving a surplus of $46,000.The interest charged on the bounds of $3,670,000, of which $1,600, 000 only had been raised, would be $183,- 500, leaving a deficiency in interest of $137,500 a year.The bonds were not worth more than 50 cents, but the Canadian Pacific Railway Company has undertaken to assume the interest\u2014and the principal too, The member for Argenteuil explained in the Railway Committee that he did not understand that it would be added to the capital, so that 10 per cent.would have to be paid on it.But he ackt nowledged that by legalizing the creation of the indebtedness we authorized the GOVERNMENT TO PAY THE INDEBTEDNESS and we agreed, therefore, that they might pay $183,500 upon a road which is only paying $46,000 a year.It isobvious there will be a deficiency which will have to be paid before getting a dividend, to be kept at 10 per cent.Therefore so much more is thrown on the North-West to acquire the Credit Valley Railway in the interests of the Company whose Presiden has an interest in it much larger than in the Canadian Pacific Railway.It is to the mterest of the Company to assume the bonds on that road at par, when they ave not wopth more than 40 or 50, thus throwing on the back of the Canadian Pacific Railwa from $1,600,000 to $2,000,000.In this connection I might refer to the hon.gentleman\u2019s arrangement by which he substitue ted these $1,650,000 bonds for the $4,000, 000 deposits.Ido not understand that this was according to law.The Comp&ny deposited in cash, and I believe there was no legal authority to take that $1,000,000 out of the treasury and accept any securities whatever in lien of it.The on.Minister on the 24th November\u2014Mf.Angus writes his proposition the same day, whether the letter was by telegraph I know not \u2014ascertains the facts, makes a report to: council and recommends the consummation of the transaction.\u201d In that report He declares \u2018that the security represents a charge on the Credit Valley of $12,000 a mile only, and considering the section of country through which the road ran, he believes it is good.If he assumes that the charge of the Credit Valley is to be reduced because these bonds represent only $1,000,000, I accept that assumption, and with that assumption and the taking over the $2,000,000 which are outstanding, I find that the charge on the Credit Valley Railway would be $16,400 a mile instead of $12,000 a mile.I ASK THE HON.GENTLEMAN TO EXPLAIN by what figures he justifies his calculation that the bond charge was only $12,000 a mile.Then we were asked to grant a charter to the Ontario & Quebec, a company which asked no aid, which asked no subsidies, an independent company giving an independent line, asking no special favours and giving us an interior line.We voted for a charter\u2014but it seems that it 1s to be taken over at a low capital by the Canadian Pacific Railway, including the bridge across the St.Lawrence.Now, these operations involve an addition to the capital of from ten to twelve million dol- lars\u2014the Credit Valley, the Ontario and Quebec, and a portion of the Atlantic and North-Western are to be taken over, and if these enterprises do not pay interest at the full rate at which the money is bor rowed, then the balance is to come out of the North-West.I suspect that the object of wanting the bridge across to Montreal is to get a Boston terminus for the Canadian Pacific Railway.Prominent gentlemen in that company are prominent in the South- Eastern Railway, and I suspect that the next movement will be to arrange an amalgamation with the South-Eastern, by which Boston will become the eastern terminus of the Canadian Pacific Railway.Some years ago we thought it very important to help the Grand Trunk into Chicago; but now we are establishing, not a competitive line with the Grand Trunk for the North-West trade, but a line which shall divert from the Grand Trunk the North-West trade.It is utterly impossible for any railway to compete for the North- West trade upon equal terms with the Canadian Pacific Railway as long as the Canadian Pacific Railway retains the roads it has acquired in that regard, and until it bas all the traffic it can bear.The result will be that THERE WILL BE NO COMPETITION.There may be competition on the Western Peninsula, but, with reference to a large class of interests, you will find no competition in the North-West between the Canadian Pacific and the Grand Trunk solong as the Canadian Pacific has the only line into the North-West and will be able to eftect this diversion of traffic over the new Canadian lines.The probability 1s that the Grand Trunk, which we extended with our money into Chicago cannot carry that western trade.You are not establishing competition, and you are giving over to the Banadian Pacific Railway the right to do the traffic of the North-West, to the exclusion of the other great Canadian line.Thus have the great powers with which Parliament entrusted the Canadian Pacific Railway Company been used in a waste of financial strength and energy to other and extraneous works, which have worked injuriously to -the Company as .well as to the country.If there has been a cloud in this Company\u2019s prospects it was \u2018due to the hostility of the shareholders of the Grand Trunk Railway, and that hostility I attribute to the course the Canadian Pacific Hailway Company have pursued in Ontario.Instead of taking i's own share of the traffic, the Canadian Pacific was determined to take hold of what che Grand Trunk regarded as its'share of the profits, and under these circumstances they struck back again.That was an 1m- prudent course on the part of that Company, dependent as it must be upon the money market for its capital in which the shareholders of the other Company are so powerful Now, Sir, I was prepared to ask to-night what THE CONDITION OF THINGS was to be.I was prepared to ask upon what the dividends of ten per cent.were to be collected.I had asked before and I had got no answer ; but, to-night, the response is made and it realizes our worst apprehensions.We are told boldly tonight that à dividend is to be paid and the legitimate capital is to be considered as having been created by whatever extent to which the Canadian Pacific Railway choose to emit stock.I have read to you the Canadian Pacific Railway Company\u2019s President\u2019s own letter, in which he declares on the 5th of April that \u201cthe cash stock of the 3,354 miles of railway will be $54,000,- 000,\u201d the stock being issued at 60.\u201d And I am told that instead of paying 10 per cent.ou the cash cost, as he estimates it, without giving credit for the 17,000,000 acres of land, which he sets against it, the dividend 18 to be paid not merely on the $54,000,000, but on the whole $90,000,000, making $9,- 000,000 a year dividend, although $54,000,- 000 only go into the road.And the hon.gentleman\u2019 has 80 little considered this subject that he talked of this new stock all through as bonds, and had to be corrected time ana again.He said they sell their bonds at 60, as if the sale of bonds and the sule of stock had any parallel whatever.Why, if you sell bonds at 60 in the open market it is because YOU CANNOT RAISE YOUR MONEY CHEAPER, and it is necessary, therefore, to pay that much money in the end in order to raise the money for which you sell your bonds.But if you are going to emit stock, and if you want $54,000,000 of stock, you send that amount out to the public, and you get what you want.If you send out $90,000, 000 of stock vou get no more; but all the advantage the shareholders have is under this contract, according to which they say they can get a dividend at 10 per cent.ou $90,000,000, instead of 10 per cent.on $54, 000,000.Sir JOHN MACDONALD\u2014They cannot o it.Mr, BLAKE\u2014There* again I am cou- fronted with the great difficulty in the case, viz., that I find two voices on the other side of the House on this subject.The right hon.gentleman says they cannot do it, but the hon.Minister of Railways .explained the policy of the Government, and he declared emphatically that that was to be treated\u2014every shilling of it\u2014as capital.Sir JOHN A.MACDONALD\u2014It is for dividend purposes, but not for tariff purposes.Read the clause.Mr.BLAKE-\u2014I have read it, and know it perfectly well.ir JOHN A.MACDONALD\u2014But you do not tell us all about it.HE WILL TELL ALL.Mr.BLAKE\u2014I cannot say all I have to say in a moment, Iknow the hon.gentleman\u2019s views about it and my own view, but I am dealing now with the hon.Minister of Railways\u2019 view.What the hon.Minister of Railways said was that the stock was to be counted for tariff purposes.The question I putin March last was whether the company was to be entitled to 10 per cent.on the whole stock or not, and that question the bon.Minister of Railways has answered when he said \u201ccertainly.\u201d On that question the hon.Minister of Railways said that bonds and stocks were all the same thing, and that it would be better for the country that the company should sell at 50 instead of at 60 rather than there should be a MORTGAGE ON OUR CANADIAN PACIFIC RAILWAY.It would have been better had the hon.Minister of Railways consulted the First Mumister before making his statement, so that there might be concert among the hon.gentlemen opposite.\u2018This is a grave uestion.My opinion is that there isa ifference of opinion in the Cabinet on this subject.We owe it to ourselves and the country, and to tending investors, that the hon, Minister of Railways, and the hon First Minister, should settle the difference between them ; decide how the calculation shall be made ; announce it to the country before there has been any considerable move ment of this stock on the market, so that the people may not be able to say that they were deceived or misled.There is, therefore, now additional reason for a decisive and authoritative stateraent.I pointed out that the Consolidated Railway Act allowed only 6 per cent.interest on tlie capital expended during construction, but that this mode of issuing stock allowed the Company to obtain 84 per cent.if necessary.The hon.gentleman seemed to think that was a small matter not worthy of notice.With the hon, gentleman\u2019s tariff, and the arrangement he has made, it is probable that the profits of the railway in the future will, as they have been in the past, be good enough to pay the interest on the legitimate capital used in the construction ot the road.y this return, brought down the other day, that they have not taken out of the capital one dollar for interest as yet, because the earnings of the road have Teen adequate to pay interest on construction ; and what I complain of is that a provision should be inserted enlarging the charge for INTEREST DURING CONSTRUCTION beyond that which the law has applied to this sort of payments.The hou.gentle man has given them a new tariff, a highly increased tariff, but he has not been fur nished with information which shows him how the old tariff worked, the House has not been furnished with it, we have got nothing which enables us to judge for ourselves liow things have gone.The Company framed a tariff for local freight, they framed a tariff for through freight, they passed a by-law, they sent the y-law to the Government, the Governor in Council considered the by-law, they approved the by-law, they approved the tariff, and they fixed the period of time.Later on that period expired, and in the meantime the mileage had been much increased.The Company applied for an extension of the tariff to the new region, and also as to time, say'ng they were about to submit a reduced tariff later on.The Minister agreed with that view, and the tariff was extended in its operatio.; for another period.Now, what has the hon.gentleman done?HE VENTURES TO FRAME A TARIFF, and he orders his chief engineer to frame a tariff, and his chief engineer submits one to him, which, he says, he does not believe will please either party, he knows it is not considered liberal enough by the Company, and he thinks the Hon.Minister will con- gider it too high, but he thinks it is a fair and just tariff.He has given us something about the cost of labour, something about the cost of fuel, and the cost of working and his comparison.But we have not got the data that we would like to have had, namely, how had the old tariff worked?\u201d What had been done under it?What were the operating expenses?What were the earnings?hat different conditions were to be accepted in the new?Now, we have the general results.We know by the returns \u2018to the 30th June that in the year ending then the company\u2019s operating earnings over their lines were $1,548,000, and their operating expenses $1,148,000, giving a surplus of earnings over operating expenses of $400,- 000.We know net what the result was in the east, what the result was in the west, or how the old tor ff had worked.Without knowing, without getting from them those details which were essential elements in forming a judgment, he has ceused to be approved a new tamif.Now, Sir, that tariff is extremely defective.The old tariff provided through rates and local rates on different scales, as was proper.The new tariff that the hon.Minister has given to this company provides only local rates-\u2014 no through rates\u2014and therefore, of course, gives the company right to charge mileage rates up to the mileage rates of through freight as well as on local freight.What they do in that regard in the way of diminution is done of free grace, it is not done under the hon.gentleman\u2019s tariff.That is AN IMPORTANT DIFFERENCE between the old tariff ani the new one.In the old tariff it was held important to indicate what they should be allowed to charge for through freight, or for freight interchanged with connecting lines.Now, this new tariff gives only one maximum.Now, Sir, the old rates and the new rates compare thus\u2014taking the statistics which the hon.gentleman himself gave in his table of rates, given about this time last year: For distances of twenty to twenty-five miles, the old rates were, for first-class freight, 17 cents; second, 14 cents ; third, 11 cents; fourth, 8 cents.New rates, 24, 20, 16, 12, or an increase of about 50 per cent.in the new over the old.For torty-five to fifty, the next stage, the hon.gentleman gave us last year as furnishing a fair test, the rates were 34,18, 15, and 12 ; the new rates are 35, 29, 24, and 18, or once again an increase of somewhere about 50 per cent.For the next grade the hon gentleman took last year seventy to seventy-five miles, and the old rates were 29, 22, 19, and 15 cents; the new ra\u2018es are 45, 38, 30,and 23.For 99 to 100 miles the old rates were 40, 32, 22, and 17 ; the new rates are 54, 45, 36, and 27.The last which the hon.gentleman gave us last year was from 145 to 150 miles; for this the old rates were F15, 36, 29, and 23, while the new rates are 69, 58, 46, and 34,0r, speaking roughly, on every grade of rates which the hon.gentleman gave us of merchandise last year for the purpose of comparison, the new tariff is an increase of about 50 per cent.on the old\u2014in some a little less, in some a little more\u2014but on the average an increase of 50 per cent.Well, I will take some of the results in freighting from known points.The old local rate from Emerson to St.Boniface, sixty-five miles, on first-class merchandise, was 27 cents, now it is 41; on fourth-class, old rate 15 cents, new rate 21; special, sixth class, old rate $24, new rate $35, being AN INCREASE OF 50 PER CENT.Take the new rates and you will sée that this is a consequence of having omitted to give a through rate tariff and allow discretion to the company with respect to through rates, equal to that for local rates.The old through rate for first class merchandise from St.Vincent to St.Boniface was 18 cents ; now the through rate from St.Vincent to St.Boniface is 41 cents.The old rate for fourth class merchandise from Emerson to St.Boniface, was 10 cents, now it is 21; the old rate for merchandise, special sixth-class, from Emerson to St.Boniface was $17 for half a car, now it is $35.So the through rates have been increased on the short hauls by 100 per cent, while the local rates have increased 50 per cent.Now, why was this?It was because the Minister did not prepare a tariff of through rates, but gave the com- vany the power to charge up to the maximum through rate, as well as the local rate, and they have charged up to the maximum on the hauls I have mentioned for both, and they have been able to double the charge for through rates on short hauls.So itis of very little importance what the local rate is as compared with the through rate.The question is, what is charged upon the great amount of treight?The old local rate from Winnipeg to Rat Portage, 135 miles, was: first-class merchandise 45 cents, now 65 cents; fourth- class 20 cents, now 33 cents; special, sixth $42, now $47.To points beyond Winnipeg, such as Brandon, Rat Portage, Portage a Prairie, the through rate into Winnipeg, and the local rate out, is very far in excess of the through rate direct to that point.I do not object to a difference.I agree with the hon.gentleman that the thng haul has to be considered, and that the cireum- stances of the country have to be considered, and that they have to be considered with regard to opening up for settlement the further part; but THE DISCREPANCIES are so great here as undoubtedly to affect the interests of different parts of the country.The hon.gentieman further declares that the tariff will not pay the Canadian Pacific Railway for some years.The old one did.It has enabled them to pay running expenses and interest on capital during construction.The hon.geatleman points to problematical difficulties, tnd declares that it costs four or five times ag much to move freight as it does on \u2018he Grand Trunk.He makes comparisoig They tell us in\u2019 with the Iniercolonial, the Northern Pacis | fic, the Union Pacific, the St.Paul & Manitoba, and other roads.The hon.gentleman does not, however, assume on this occasion the attitude he assumed a year ago.He made comparisons then, too, He made a tariff which suited him to make more extensive comparisons.The hon.gentleman did not confine himself to monopoly rates and to high-priced roads, to the roads which have created, to a large extent, the railway question in the United States with respect to tariffs, or to roads about which great grievances have arisen.He took the Intercolonial, the Prince Edward Island, the Central Vermont, the Toronto, Grey & Bruce, the Canada Central, the St.Paul, Minneapolis, and Manitoba, the Northern & North-Western, the Grand Trunk, the Chicago, Milwaukee & St.Paul, the Atcheson, Topeka, & Santa Fe, the Northern Pacific, the Union Pacific, the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, the Chicago & North-Western; and he gave us a table of rates for first and fourth-class freights, ranging from 20 cts.to 50cts., 75 cts,, 90 cts, $1.00 and $1.50.What did the hon.gentleman say ?He said :\u2014\u201cAÂs this is a matter to which the hon.leader of the Opposition devoted a great deal of attention, and which I understood he deplored more deeply than anything else in connection with this contract, I am quite sure the House will bear with me if I take the opportunity, at some length, to show the hon.gentleman that HIS SYMPATHY WAS THROWN AWAY, that it was not required, and there is no room for him to bestow any more of it in that connection.Of course, the charges upon railways are in proportion to the distance that frei Tt is car ried.This is the mode in which all railway tariffs are constructed.\u201d Well, time works wonders, aud 1n this particular it seems to have arranged matters perhaps a little earlier than the hon.entleman himself may have expected.he tariffs which are in existence show that there is nothing to which the hon.gentleman can refer in this connection.They show this : the rates which he gave us last year as the rates of the Canadian Pacific Railway Company, in each of these cases, were the rates which have now been enormously increased.The Canadian Pacific Railway Company no longer bears a comparison with any of these roads; whalever, except the four monopoly routes, to which he has now referred.It no longer occupies the position in which he placed it last year, and even with them, taking the long hauls, the comparatively long hauls, the comparisons may be made in taking first-class merchandise.For two hundred miles on the Canadian Pacific, the rate is 80 cents; on the Union Pacific, 67 cents; and on the St.Paul and Manitoba, 73 cents; so that even of the monopoly rates, two are considerably under the anadian Pacific, according to the hon.gentleman\u2019s new table.For second-class trafficon a two hundred niles hanl the Canadian Pacific charge 67\u2019 cents, the Union Pacific 60 cents, and the St.Paul & Manitoba 54 cents.For lumber, shingles, and special fourths the Canadian Pacific, on a two hundred miles haul, charge 37 cents, the Union Pacific 36 cents, and the St.Paul & Manitoba 33 cents.For live stock the Canadian Pacific charge 60 cents, the Union Pacific 55 cents, and the St.Paul & Manitoba 53 cents.For household goods and implements, etc.,sixth-class goods, the Canadian Pacific charge 60 cents, and the St.Paul & Manitoba 56 cents.Now, Sir, WHEN WE COMPLAINED OF HIGH FREIGHTS from the North-West to Old Canada last year, they said, \u201c Oh! it is all of this infamous St.Paul & Manitoba Road.\u201d They have the right to charge what they like on their own railway.What have we to do with that ?But 3s-to the Canadian Pacific itaelf, the minute it gets inside the North- West its freights are low; but I have shown numerous instances in which the Canadian Pacific, under their new tariff, actually charge higher than the rates which were acknowledged grievances of the St.Paul & Manitoba last year; and it has been taken entirely out of that proud category in which the hon.gentleman placed it by the useful record which he made in his speech last year, of the ordinary rates; and it is put among the high monopoly roads, and up beyond a good many high monopoly roads at that; 80 that, Sir, it is clear that my observation was correct\u2014that the principle of regulating tolls by the Government would prove buta very unsatisfactory and imperfect method of obviating the evils of monopoly.This is the first instance we have of it.They commenced on a tariff which they say they believe is reasonable.Everybody is pleased.The hon.gentleman congratulates himself.We are branded through the country as having been raising a bogey.We find that the Canadian Pacific 1s going to carry freights as low as the Grand Trunk, the Northern & North- Western, the Toronto, Grey & Bruce\u2014all these roads; but one short year elapses, the prospects of the road are brighter than ever; and the hon, gentleman shows a double tariff\u2014a tariff which goes far in excess of all these, and thus we see, s0 early, how little protection the power of the Governor-in-Council in regulating tolls is.We contended that the company would be likely to sell the lauds av high prices for speculative purposes to & eculators ; and that the restrictions should be so placed as to secure the settlement, but there again we were laughed at by the hon.gentleman.We were TOLD THAT IT WAS RIDICULOUS ; that the company would never do anything of the kind ; and last year, the hon.gentleman, in reading over our resolutions to prove their futility, turned to that subject, and said: Here is another resolution, we were told that restrictions ought to be cast around the Canadian Pacific; that the ought not to be allowed to sell their lands free of conditions of settlement, and now I prove t6 you By: the logic of events, that this is all nonsence.Once again, Sir, one short year has vindicated our opinions.We find that the returns of the Canadian Pacific Railway Company show that they have sold 6,250, 000 acres in round figures for $17,390,000.We know that the great bulk of 1 has been sold not to settlers, not on condition of settlement,.but to a speculative land Sompany, the North-West Land Company.We know that that land has been sold not at §1 an acre but at something which is equivalent to $3 nominally\u2014equivalent to $2.70 per acre, allowieg for, the discount of the bonds amd the prices at which they were taken.We know that the company! has not acted on the prices which were stated to us last year.We know that they have refused those who wanted to buy lands, and that they have promoted and.assisted as far as, they.could the formation.of the compagnies which\u2019 have taken 5,000,000 acres of the choicest lands at the net price of $2.73 per acre.We knqw that our fears have been realized, and that the settler has to pay a profit on $2.75 per acre to the speculator, instead of getting the land at §1 or $1.25 from the Company.Now the cost of administration, the hon.entleman said,would be 25 cents per acre.find that THE COST OF ADMINISTRATION for the year was $85,000.They sold several millions of acres, but they did not put in the big sale of 5,000,000 of acres, so that the cost of administering the lands was à mere fraction of what the hon.gentleman said it would be, and the net return to the company will be $2.60 per acre if you make a liberal allowance for administration.Now, the hon.gentlemau stated, with reference tu the selection of the lands, that the lands which they now got, and the lands which were sold, were the cream.Not so.5,000,000 acres are now estimated to be obtainable along the line of the railway out of the nine or ten millions which would have existed if every alternate section had been available.Two and a half millions of acres are supposed to be available under tae first grant made to the south of the line, but that amount has been enormously extended since, but without any statement of what the acreage of that extent will be we know that far more than the company has disposed of is available along the line.The sale to the North-West Company is only a part of these lands.It is only Certain sections, and certain sections in the south-western part of Manitoba.That sale is distributed amongst the whole presumably of some 10,000,000 acres of country which, along the line and in the southern part of the country, they may have.The hon.gentle man says the rest is far superior ; but did we not hear the hon.member for Provencher (Mr.Royal) say, when the subject of the Prince Albert settlement was discussed, that it was the choicest part of the whole North-West.Wherever the company told the Government that they would build, wherever they wanted land, they projected a line, and they asked the Government to RESERVE SECTIONS, because they were going to build.| Later, they have asked the Government toreserve them without their building through it, and the Government have reserved a large block of what is reported to be the choicest lands in the North-W est-\u2014a block comprising, exclusive of Hudeon Bay and school lands, some 38,000,000 of acres, or of odd-numbered sections comprising 19, 000,000 of acres; and the Minister of the Interior reports that he thinks that out of that 19,000,000 of acres, after making allowances for water-stretches, lakes, etc., 12,500,000 acres would inure to the grant \u2014that is about two-thirds of the 19,000,000 would be availiable, and the lands are in the choicest parts ot the North-West, So futile are the stories which would treat the whole area of the North-West as available land, that the Minister of the Interior, in proposing a reservation of 19,000,000 of acres for the Canadian Pacific Railway within limits of their.own selection, says that these 19,000,000 shall be reserved in order to secure them 12,500,000 proper to be taken under the terms of the contract.If it requires 19,000,000 of acres to make up 12,500,800 fairly fit for settlement in the blocks of the choicest lands in the North-West, what proportion will be re- quiréd ja the ordinary portions of the country?Certaibly'a larger proportion, and this statement indicates that a much larger proportion than the hon.gentleman stated and asked the House 2nd the country to assume, of the North-West is not fit for settlement.The arrangements with reference to the homesteaders seem to me to be VERY UNFAVOURABLE TO THE PUBLIC.The Government was asked late in.the vear to negotiate with the homesteaders, whose homesteads might be wanted for town sites, with a view of having them abandon ¢heir homesteads, so that the company might build their stations upon them.Everybody heard that the company were sending out speculative homesteaders \u2014persons to squat as homesteaders along the line.Everybody heard that others were speculating in homesteads along the line; and hon.gentlemen agree that whoever might happen to be on a homestead, might agree with the company to give up his land to them, and all the company had to do was to send out men to squat, and then if they abandoned their land the company were authorized to take them.This is an arrangement which does not seem to me to be in the interest of the public, butis entirely in the interest of the Railway Company.as it enables then to acquire land which should either be the property of the homesteader or should have been reserved for town sites, so that the public wonld have got the benefit.The, hon.gentleman has said a great deal about the branches of the road.He says they are going to do a great deal in branches, but they certainly have changed their tune very much about the branches.Last year the hon.Minister brought down a etter from the company, in which they said that they had decided to build several branches in the North-West.There \u2018vas the Assiniboine Branch, 300 miles ; the Saskatchewan Branch, 435 miles ; the Souris Branch, 200 miles ; and the Pembina Mountain Branch, 100 miles, or a total of 1,035 miles of branches.They said they had not had time actually to locate the branch, but they sent in a plea giving an approximate statem nt of the lines so that the Government might reserve the land.These also all SEEM TO HAVE BEEN ABANDONED, The Saskatchewan has not been touched ; the Assiniboine has not been touched, and instead of 1,035 miles of projected lines, the hon.gentleman talks about 280 miles in other parts of the country.In fact the energy which should have been expended in making the branches has been expended in these eastern portions which I have already criticized.It will be remembeted that we contended that the provisions with regard to the selections of the route were not sufficiently guarded Now, there are several questions which arise with regard to this\u201cportion of the subject.For example, Callender Station apparently is a moveable point,but now it has been fixed at a point ten miles eastward of the int at which it was originally located.The reason is obvions.If you could shove Callender to the east the Canadian Pacific Railway Company, which amalgamated with the Canada Central, and which was completing its line, would be able to draw land and money subsidy for every mile you shove Callender to the east.I do not mean that the whole contract price would be increased, because it isa bulk sum; but they would be able to take the money which should be otherwise reserved for the construction of the other part, the real 650 miles to be built vy the Canadian Pacific Railway Company, from Callender to Thunder Bay, and apply itto a road which should be built from their own resources.The hon.gentleman did not see any objection to that.He shoved Callender Station ten miles farther back to the east, and ten miles of road which was not part of the contracted line became part of it, and the company claimed a subsidy for it and got it.That would be about $400,000 in land and money, estimating the land at $2.08 an acre, which they have realized on what they have already sold ; and .WHAT IS THE CONSEQUENCE ?There is a certain sum with which to build the line ; but we have already hsnded aver to them for the building of that which was not part of the line contracted to be built, $400,000 in land and money, and consequently there is $400,000 less available to uild the contracted line, just as on the prairie section we have handed over many millions of land and money which were wanted for other parts of the line.We are called upon to review the operations of the Government and the Canadian Pacific Railway Company during the year.We contrast the hon.gentleman\u2019s statements with his performances, and we find that, whenever anything occurs which was not calculated upon he is dumb.Now, we know that some mysterious arrangement has been made by which the contractors on Section \u201cB\u201d are satisfied, and the Canadian Pacific Railway Company are satisfied, but the contractors have given up their contract, aud the Canadian, acific Railway choose to construet as wel] as to ran the line; Theu there is the locg, tion of the road west of Moose J aw Crock: This was the most westerly point approveq Up to last session, 454 miles west of Wipe nipeg.The bon, Mini>ter distinetiy pled ed liiniself that no further appropriation shoulii be given to any portion of the road west of that point until Government had decided as to the route through the Kicking Horse Pass.That was the pledge: WHAT HAS TAKEN PLACE ?On the 27th of September, 1882, approva) was reported of 1133 miles west of Moose Jaw, from Moose Jaw to Swift Current Creek, on the recommedation of Acting Chief Engineer Lynch, in the absence of the Chief Engineer, through the hon.Minister of Agriculture, the Acting Minister of Railways and Canals, mn the absence of the hon.Minister of Railways.That report was approved by the hon.Minister, submitted to the Council, and adopted on the 30th September.There was a positive ledge to Parliament that there would not Pe any payment upon or any approval of any portion of the line east of Moose Jaw until the Government had ascertained that there was a better route through Kickin Horse Pass than through Yellowhead Pass.Yet without hawing ascertained that, without having the information u which a decision could be reached, a decision was reached, or rather there was no decision, for there is no Order in Counei} approving it; but the hon.Minister caused approval to be given involving the payment of $1,135,000 in cash aud a grant of 1,418,750 acres of land, which at the estimated value of $2.63 an acre is $3,802,000, or a total of $4.937,000, without any re ference to the question of the Kicking Horse Pass at all.Mr, POPE\u2014Referring to both Passes, Mr.BLAKE\u2014No, Minister of Railways had declared that Mooge Jaw was as far west as you could go on the route to Calgary, except with reference to the Yellowhead Pass, because the hon.Minister of Railwavs had declared that he did not intend to allow a single mile to be APPROVED IN LOCATION or paid for on the route to Calgary unless 1t was decided the railway should gn by Kicking Horse Pass; because the Load does diverge there; because the engineer so reported ; because the Minister so stated ; because it would be quite out of the question to carry that road to Swift Current and then go to Yellowhead Pass with any degrec of propriety unless the views formerly entertained by the engineer and the hon.Minister of Railways are entirely erroneous and uncertain, À little later, the 6th November, the hon.Minister of Railways himself received an application with reference to the location of the live from Swift Current Creek to the crossing of the South Saskatchewan, a distance of 148 miles.On that the chief engincer, Mr, Schreiber, reported as foliows:\u2014* That as far as the section referred to, from Swift Current Creek to the South Saskatchewan River, a distance of about 145 miles, is concerned, and its suitability for a line of railway, the country is favourable both as regards gradients and curvature, being in this respect well within the conditions imposed by the Canadian Pacific Railway Act; and that if a line within the terms of this Act can be located through the Kicking Horse Pass the line laid down on the plan now submitted, though not so direct from that point as might have been desired, may be considered sufficiently so as to warrant its approval.\u201d So that there was only a conditional approval given by the officer.But the hon.Minister, upon that, reported absolutely in favour of approval, and the Government absolutely approved.So, upon the 6th November, there was an absolute approval of the continued line for another 148 miles leyond Moose Jaw Creek, making an aggregnte, adding the 148 and 113} miles together, of 261} miles approved of, beyond the point in respect to which a pledge had been given to Parliament that there would be no such approval until the ascertainment that there was a better line in the country through Kicking Horse Pass than had been previously obtained through Yellowhead Pass.This action of the Government INVOLVED A FURTHER PAYMENT of $1,480,000 cash, and 1,850,000 acres of land, worth $2.68 an acre, $4,910,000\u2014or a total of $6,390,000 in land and money.Now, Kicking Horse Pass had not then been approved.When last session we were asked to give the Government authority to approve of a change, the hon.gentleman, in his speech last session, quoted a tele gram of the 17th April as his latest information, and the memorandum of Mr.Smellie, of the 15th April, as the next latest information.His understanding then was that seventy-nine miles would be saved if a straight line across the Selkirk was taken, and uot, if the big bend of the Columbia River should be followed.The subsequent information which has been brought down indicates that to go by the big bend of the Columbia, instead of by the straight cut, would iuvolve a loss of 77 miles, so that according to all the information received, if you go round by the big bend of the Columbia, you get practically the same distance through the Kicking Horse Pass as through the Yellowhead Puss.The hon.gentleman stated that a further saving has been found of seventy- nine miles since this report was made, but this report is very late.Sir CHARLES TUPPER.\u2014That report does not refer to the Yellowhead at all.Mr.BLAKE\u2014Certainly not ; but we had before that all the information concerning it, and according to that seventy-nine miles would be saved by going through fhe Kicking Horse Pass straight across the Selkirk Mountains, as \u2018compared with the route through the Yellowhead Pass.There is no indication of any other change.Then they give the mileage from a certain point by the Kicking Horse Pass at 148 miles, or about that; then they show that seventy- seven miles, or thereabouts, of those 148 miles would be taken by going by the Big Bend, so that practically the distance is the same.The hon.gentleman says that in some way or other, either by lengthening Yellowhead Pass or by SHORTENING THE KICKING HORSE PASS, they have found a further saving of 79 miles.Op that T am not competent to treat, nor is Parliament competent to deal with it; for the information, though it arrived just in time to enable the hon.gentleman to make his statement, did not arrive in sufficient time to be laid on the table of the House.Sir CHARLES TUPPER\u2014I have simply used the figures furnished by the Chief\" ngineer.I asked Mr.Schreiber what the saving would be by the line now ascer- téined, and he gave me the distance sqved by compared with the Yellowhead Pass line, to be 119-miles.I have-used Mr.Van- Horn\u2019s statement as to the saving between the line by Kicking Horse Pass and.the Selkirk Range, and that around the great.bend of the Columbia River.Mr.MACKENZIE\u2014W hose, figures did you use last vear ?Sir CHARLES TUPPEB\u2014Last year we had not the accurate information fhat we have now.Mr BLAKE\u2014We have gota report on this subject so late as the 18th April, 1883, which does not give the information, the Chief Engineer gave the hon.gentleman.It does not inform us of this further saving.When or how, in which of the valleys or mountains this saving has been found, we have no information of, and it only ecause the hon,\" » au dd \u2014 ne | -Or the ere en int , OF ty- 148 Big hat en- of L to eal ar- tle- ive of m- rief the er- ved ass \u2018an een the eat did eys nd, 4 * -™ = - -_ nr THE MONTREAL HERALD AND DAILY COMMERCIAL GAZETTE FRIDAY, MAY 11 me 7 shows Low inaceurate must have been the revious explorations, if that is the result arrived at between the 18th of April and the present time.The question, as it presented itself to me, is A VERY SERIOUS ONE, for this reason.I quite agree that if the Company and the Government were committed one way or the other we might look with very considerable contidence, though we would not give up our right of judgment, to à decision taken after full infor mation on the part of the Company as to which road was best for themselves; but it is clear now that before the Company had obtained information, and ut a time when it was quite uncertain whether proper means of crossing at the Kicking Îorse Pass and going into Kamloops across the Selkirks could be found, they had determined, in their minds, they would go that way and they determined to build their railway in thal direction.They determined to go on and spend their mouney\u2014or rather our money\u2014in that way, and the Government has acceded to that, and these many millions have been expended along, the line leading fo the Kicking Horse Pass, .and of course the Government has got to make the best of it.Of course, having allowed them not merely to go on and build the railway as a branch, but having al- \u201clowed them to build it as part of the main Îine, they approved the location, granted \u2018the subsidies, and having issued a large quantity of money on land, they have now to say to-night the Kicking Horse Pass is the best.If the Minister was right last year he ought to have reached his conclusion on proper evidence that the Kicking Horse Pass was rignt before he approved the location of a mile of railway beyond Moose Jaw Creek, or paid a dollar on that line.Now, Sir, I must confess that I AM NOT AT ALL SATISFIED with the remarks made on this subject in these various reports.In the first place if you take the Company round by the Big Bend these reports show that that road is at one end so much longer than the road across the Selkirks than even according to the bon.gentleman\u2019s latest information, the distance in mileage is a mere trifle, but even round by the Big Bend you will have grades of from seventy to ninety feet, the report says that, 50 that ou will have at this rate in order to go y Kicking Horse Pass in the first place ascending west of five miles of seventy-five feet over the Rockies, then you will have a grade on the western descent of twenty miles of 116 feet to the mile ; then you will have a long route by the Big Bend, which contains several grades of from seventy to ninety feet per mile, besides much very difficult work.Now, compare that with a railroad where the maximum grade is only fifty- two, and very little of that.But I say that those grades I have mentioned render it utterly impossible to compare a railway assing by the Biz Bend and Kicking Prorce Pass with the railway that the survey proposed, without coming to a conclusion m favour of the Yellowhead; but if you take the Kicking Horse Pass straight across the Selkirks, then you find a great advantage if the report 18 true.Major Rogers reports tual tue whole difficulty of work at the Selkirks could be concentrated in ten or twelve months ; but now we find it takes forty 1nouths, twenty on the east and twenty on the west.He reported 105 foot grades, but now it seems they will be too expensive and that it will take 116 foot rades.Bul we are told that the Central acific has as high grades.In one of the letters I have read it is stated that the Union Pacific lias such grades.Ido not see in the papers T have been able to look at any statement Of à grade higher than 80 or 90 feet on the Union Pacific.Iam not able to speak with positiveness, for I have not been ABLE TO GET THE INFORMATION.The hon.gentleman proposes in this contract to go by the Kicking Horse, giving us a grade of 116 feet to get down the Rockies in the west, and giving us two grades of © 116 feet, cach of these three grades being for twenty miles to get across the Selkirks.Well, I say he has not got authority to do it.I say the authority to approve the route through Kicking Horse Pass is not an authority to alter tlie terms of the contract to that extent.The terms of the contract were that the grades should be as good, at any rate, as the Union Pacific grades, and the hon.gentleman will have to alter the contract again to get further power.But he assumes (0 himself the rigi t, in case it turns out that the grades are more than the maximum of the Union Pacific grades, to go by\u2019that route, and these grades that we have an express bargain were not to be worse than the Union Pacific grades, it is now proposed shall be worse by twenty feet than the maximum of the Union Pacific, and these for very long stretches.I certainly admit some of the general propositions stated in the last report.I en- tirelv admit it is much better to have a concentrated steep grade at one point than to have a number of steep grades occurring at different points.It is obvious and proper.But if these grades are more severe, and they are now admitted to be more severe, than the standard which we stipulated for, I do not understand how the hon.genileman can propose to Parliament to accept the view that he has authority to create a grade of twenty-six feet WORSE THAN THE WORSE GRADES of that road which is to be our standard.But, as I said, the hon.gentleman committed himself, and his colleagues who acted for him committed him in September and again in November, and they decided absolutely to locate the line for the Kicking Horse Pass.Now, I think this has been an error of judgment.Early in the business, 50 Jung ago as in that same fall of 1881, the hon.First Minister made his speech, which referred to the new noticn of going to,.Calgary.The Pacific Railway Company decided they would deffect this live to the Selkirks, and that was their general policy.But then they wished to take the whole country into their net, and if any railroads were built by Canada in that country they must swallow them up unless they were built in the south ; and having decided that they wanted to keep to the south, they wanted to go at the cost of the Government and the country with their construction last yeur, and they induced the hon.gentleman to violate the pledge he had made to this House, and to take then along to the south of the Sagkatchewan after fhe decision on the subject of the Kicking Horse Pass.I maintain that having so done, it now having turned out that the saving by the Big Bend would \" be hardly anything in time, it having turned out that the grades on the track of the road are twenty-six feet more severe than the maximum contract grades, I maintain that that route ought not to be approved.But I have no doubt the Government is shut up to the APPROVAL OF THAT ROUTE by the course they pursue, Now there is much more to be said, but I am not able to say anything more.In the review of the operations of the Government in connection with the construction of this railway during this year, in the particular which Ihave just now pointed out, and in other particulars which I have pointed out\u2014in the particular of the eastern end, in the particular of the location of the western end from the Moose Jaw west, and in other regards, I maintain that the Government have shown themselves regardless .of the contract, and neglectful of the pledges it to sanction and give them authority to change the route of the railway.I maintain that the progress which has been made in the settlement of the North-West is not due to this construction.I maintain that it is due simply to a line having been built through the prairies of the North-West.; Mr.BLAKE concluded with some general observations in support of his polic of completing the work of building throug the prairie country first and sat down amid loud applause.ONE EXPERIENCE FROM MANY.I have been sick and miserable so lon, and had caused my husband s0 much trouble and expense, no one seemed to know what ailed me, that I was completely disheartened and discouraged.In this frame of mind I got a bottle of Hop Bitters and used them unknown to my family.I soon began to improve and gained so fast: that my husband and family thought tt strange and unnatural, but when I told them what had helped me, they said.\u201c Hurrah for Hop Bitters! long may they prosper, for they have made mother well, und us happy.\u201d\u2014The Mother.ON THIRTY DAYS\u2019 TRIAL- Tae Voutaic Berr Co.,Marshall, Mich., will gend Dr.Dye\u2019s Celebrated Electro- Voltaic Belts and Electric Appliances on trial for thirty days to men (young or old) who are afflicted with nervous debility, lost vitality and kindred troubles, guaranteeing speedy and complete restoration of health and manly vigor.Address as above.N.B.\u2014Norisk is incurred, as thirty days\u2019 trial is allowed.= A hy SES EIEIO) FOR THE Kidneys, Liver end Urinary Ovgans, The Best Blood Purifier.There is only one way by which any disense can be cured, and that is by roe moving the canse\u2014whatever it may be.The great medical authorities of the day declare thal nearly cvery disease is caused by deranged kidneys or liver.To restore these therefore is the only way by which health can be secured.Here is where WARNER'S SAFE CURE hias nchieved iis great reputation.It acts directly upon the kidneys and liver and by placing them in a healthy condition drives disease and pain from the system.For all Kidneys, Liver and Trinary troubles;

strong indeed, and I am not going to throw a wet blanket on any movement that has salvation for its object.You are quite right in ving prominence to the emotional element n our nature.Itis as natural as the intellectual, andI always, when in Kingston, advocated an appeal to it by the church.But ask yourself, have you and the other clergy ever striven in that direction?Have you ever thrown the churches open and free to the poor wayfarers seeking after God, if haply he may find him?Have you ever had short, bright services with addresses to the emotional nature of your parishioners?If not, if instead there has been a freezing respectability and a palronizing dispensin of the Gospel to the working classes, then think church methods should be tried before we fall into ways that are as yet untested by experience.ou are quite right in your efforts to give the movement a right direction, and I pray God you may be successful.The low party in the Church are the most decidedly hostile to it,

westward and an hour or so later returned and seemed to hover at the mouth for a short time, apparently undecided whether te come in ornot.She then turned about and put to sea again, without having made any signals.This curious action of a steamer is very unusual, though there have previously, but not recently, been one or two similar cases.OTTAWA CORRESPONDENCE.Jadges® Salaries \u2014 Factory

by a wound inflicted upon his head with some blunt instrument supposed to be in the hands of W.T.Dodson.When the North bound passenger train on the Virginia Midland Railroad reached Galveston station, about twenty-siX miles north of Danville, Dodson got aboard and was_at once arrested by Station Agent Scott and Conductor Gregg and by the former brought back to Danville on the south bound freight train.His arrest having been telegraphed, his coming on the freight train became commonly known.When it arrived a considerable crowd had collected at the depot.The prisoner was taken In charge by the Chief of Police, who had ; hurried with hima squad of policemen, rie into an omnibus, rapidly driven to Jail, and incarcerated.As the omnibus passed up Main striet, a tremendous crowd of people were gathered on the sidewalks, but no demonstrations were made.DODSON\u2019S CONFESSION.After the prisoner was lodged in a cell the Chief of Police, attended by Policeman Lowrie aud the jailer, went 1n to search his person and to see that Lhe was safely secur ed.With them Dodson entered into conversation and voluntarily unfolded the details of his horrid crime.He said he had recently insured his life for $5,500, which amount he desired his wife and children to get.Tothat end he conceived the scheme of putting a dead man\u2019s body into his dwelling house, which he was occupying alone, having sent his wife and children to her father\u2019s house, then setting fire to the house and vanishmg himself to Texas.By thus leaving the dead body to be mistaken for his remains, as if burned in the house, he thought he could secure the payment of the insurance money to his wife and children.In furtherance of his scheme he ew- ployed two burly negro men, whom he picked up on the street on Sunday, but whose naines he did not not know, though he would recognize one of them were he to see him again, to assist him.He bargained with thew to pay each $50 if they would on Sunday night bring a dead body to his house at a late hour; telling them he wanted the body for dissection.Ile gave the key of the house to these negro men, and said he would come in later and join them there.It happened that the weuther on Sunday night was the most tempestuous known in this latitude for years, and just suited for such an atrocious deed of diabolism as that here related.At one o'clock that night he went home and found the two men there, and with them a third negro whom he did not know.All three were sitting in his sleeping room.When he came in the two negroes he had employed knocked the third whom they had brought with them, in the head, and he fell aud died between the table and the dressing stand, where a pool of blood was found.By his direction his two negro assistants took the body up stairs to the half-storey room above and laid i on the floor.After they came down he paid them $50 each and dismissed them, and they left Lim alone in the house.HIS METHOD OF SETTING THE HOUSE ON FIRE.He thien, amid the howling of the raging tempest,, proceeded to complete his diabolical work.Taking some of the covering from his bed he went up stairs, with a dim lantern in his hand, and covered the body up in it.Upon it he poured a gallon of Kerosene.He then drew up the legs and so arranged then so as to hold a lighted candle between them.He placed halt a candle, six inches long, in position and lighted it, and then went back down stairs to his sleeping room.Here he saturated his bed with kerosene and placed the other half of the candle in position, so that when it burned down it would set the bed on fire.At this point he remarked that that was where he made a mistake, for he should have used a shorter piece of candle, which would have burned sooner and then the house would have burned down before daybreak.Near his bed, he said, he placed his watch and a bunch of keys to confirm tlie belief that the body, when found in the burned house, was his.Having completed these arrangements he left the house, the hour being two o'clock A.M.HIS WANDERINGS AFTER THE CRIME.He wandered about town an hour or so, and then set out on foot upen the line of the Virginia Midland Railroad.On Monday he walked to Chatham and spent the night there ; next morning he tried to get a newspaper to ascertain the effect of his work in setting his house afire, but he was unable to obtain a paper.He walked further on towards the line of the railroad, and at Galveston got on board the [train for the purpose only of procuring a newspaper, intending to get off at the next station.He said he intended, if he found from the newspaper that his scheme of burning had succeeded,to jump the country, go to Texas and start life anew under a new name; but if he failed he thought he might as well give himself up.On his person was found in currency nearly $150.The prisoner\u2019s story as to his two alleged negro accomplices excites intense interest, but it is not believed by some.His declaration that he does know their names and is entirely anacquainted with jtuem geems to preclude all clew to their dis covery, but everv effort will be made by the authorities to discover the bottom facts in this terrible story.\u2014New York Herald.CRIMES AND ACCIDENTS.SHERBROOKE, Que., May 10.\u2014Coroner Woodward has just returned from holding an inquest oun the body of Elmore Bruneau, killed at Oxford Copper and

Wheat Prospects.WASHINGTON, May 10, \u2014 The May returns of wheat to the Department of Agriculture make the condition compared with April, of the averages materially lower in New York, Michigan, Ohio and Illinois.Further injury was wrought by the frosts early in April, and in the more northern districts the real damage by March freezing was more fully disclosed as the snow and ice disappeared.The average is 77 for New York\u2014the depreciation being heaviest in Onondaga, Niagara, Genesee and Ontario counties\u2014 for Michigan 83; Ohio 62; for Illinois 66.Further loss is suffered by plowing up large areas in Ohio and Illinois.A reduction in Missouri, from 83 to 80 is reported.In Indiana the condition averages 75.New Jersey 101, the same as April.All the remaining Northern States show an improvement since April as well as the Pacific Coast and nearly all the Southern States.The average condition of the winter wheat is 834 against 80 in April.The loss in area from replanting in other crops may be assumed to reduce the prospect to that of April.The spring wheat area will not be com- lete till May 15, and will be reported on une 1st.The probable increase in Dakota will be 30 per cent.Minnesota reports 86 per cent.of last year\u2019s area already planted.An increase of 15 per cent.is reported from Washington Territory.It is not probable the increase in the spring wheat area will more than make good the loss of winter wheat acreage.The present prospects for winter wheat, in consideration of the reduced condition and acreage, is 20 per cent less than in May last, representing a loss of 77,000,000 bushels.A London agent on April 28th reports the improvement in European wheat prospects during the last month, The small area of spring sown wheat in England is thin and much of it will be displaced by barley.A reduced crop seems inevitable in western Europe.In Austria and Hungary the prospect is favourable for a medium crop.Returns of the progress in cotton planting show the work later than usual in every state.Free Trade Delegates.New York, May 10.\u2014The New York and Brooklyn Free Trade Clubs, to-night elected delegates to the free trade conference at Detroit, on 31st May.Theodore Rossevelt and Henry Ward Beecher, are among them.Effect of the Bricklayers\u2019 Strike.Curcaco, May 10.\u2014Unless the bricklayers\u2019 strike be ended within two weeks, 30,000 pasterers, carpenters, painters, etc, will be out of employment because of no buildings to work on.Heresy.WELLSVILLE, Ohio, May 10.\u2014Steuben- ville Presbytery has suspended Rev.W.W.McLane for heresy.He published a book denying that the Saviour offered himself as a sacrifice for sin, and denying the mediatoria! work of Christ.McLane made a long address in his own defenge, He will appeal to the General Assembly, FTAYTI.Insurgent Operations, Havana, May 10.\u2014Advices from Havti are conflicting.The true situation appears to be that Miragoane, which is defended by about 700 rebels holds out against 6,000 Government troops, while the rest of the Republic is comparatively quiet, although there is rumour that the town of St.Marc is in arms in favour of General Piquant.Six hundred [fugitive inhabitants of Miragoane reached Port au Prince on a Miragoane barque.They state that the rebels blew up a bridge at Miragoane with dynamite, killing 200 and wounding a like number.A boat with four men, which ran the blockake, has arrived at Kingston, carrying letters to Gen.Bazelais, assuring him that the force in Miragoane can resist a siege for four months, \u2014The first through ticket from St.Paul to Portland, Oregon, on the Northern Pacific was sold on Wednesday.\u2014The Central Iowa Railroad approximate earnings for April, 1883, were $100,- 805.38 ; do.1882, $82,044.81 ; increase, $18,760,562.£a a 4 TORY Amey, REED Ë à TRE CR E30 Hi 4 BE Ÿ ; 53 Ba INT E i!
