the opening of the States General at Versailles.The orator of the day was Hon.Frederics R.Coudert, who in fit terms dwelt upon the importance of the event, which inaugurated the reign of the people in France.Prof, Fiston, of the College of the City of New York, also spoke, and his remarks were go full of allusions to current French politics that the Consul-General several times warned him quietly that he was treading on dangerous grounds.The audience finally expressed such dissatisfaction with the professor's treatment of the subject that he was obliged to retire.This was the only unpleasant incident of the meeting, though there was some displeasure manifested over the fact that about 200 Communists Were present and that the noted Communist, Gustave May, Was allowed to sit on the platform, A SUDDEN FIT oy INSANITY.Horrible Murder of His Infant.Cnicaco, Ill, May 5.\u2014~William Tansor, of this city, a machinist by trade, 26 years of age, living with his young wife and six months old baby, became suddenly insane while in bed, at 3 o\u2019clock this morning and after a desperate struggle with his wife seized the baby from the crib in which it was sleeping and dashed ite brains out against the wall of the room.He then seized a butcher\u2019s knife and tried to murder his wife, who eluded the mad man and fled to the street, meanwhile arousing the neighbors by her piercing screams.Tansor then slashed his own throat with the knife and when the police arrived he was walking to and fro in the room with a terrible gash in his neck, frem which the blood was streaming, while in one hand he held the bloody knife and on his left arm lay the horribly mutilated body of the dead infant.The murderer was at once overpowered and taken to the hospital for treatment and is still alive.ee A THREE THOUSAND YEAR OLD RELIC.Valuable and Interesting Gift From the Chinese Minister.Wasmincrox, D.C, May 5.\u2014The Chinese Minister has made a valuable gift to the regents of the Smithsonian Institution.Ensconced in a beautiful gold plush case is a \u201cJade\u201d ring about 10 inches in diameter, and $ of an inch in thickness.It has a hollow centre about 4 Inches in diameter.The face of the ring has ornamental spots and its back is quite smooth.It is of & pea hue, though it was originally of cream color.Upon itis a cream colored spot about the size of a 10 cent piece, which if continually rubbed with a piece of silk, will grow in size.This ring is known as the \u201cHan Pak \"\u2014jewel of the dynasty of Han, who reigned about 3,500 years ago.In that dynasty the court officials, when having an audience with the Emperor held this ring with both hands, thrusting their fingers into the opening and guarding against moving their hands while addressing the throne.It was used as an emblem of submission or respect for their sovereign.It had been buried with its owner, was unearthed from the sepulcher recently and is\u2019 considered very valuable.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 EXPERIMENTS IN SORGHUM To Determine the Best Varieties of Cultivation.Wasmxcron, D.C., May 5.\u2014The experiment in cultivating and manufacturing sorghum will be continued this year under the auspices of the Agricultural Department.Prof.Wiley, chemist, last week laid out the work for a field on the Maryland experimental farm, eight miles from Washington, the labor on which will be performed by employees of the Maryland Agricultural College, upon whose grounds the station is located.On one plot of the field are planted 250 lots of pedigreed seed taken from stalks grown in Kansas, of which an analysis was made, Over 2,000 stalks were thus analyzed and the seed of 250 showing the highest percentage of saccharine matter saved for sowing, to determine whether or not this excellence is hereditary and can be perpetuated.On another plot are planted 40 varieties of seed, the ground being enriched by 29 different kinds of fertilizers.In the field are two strips where no fertilizer is used, the intention being to determine the best kind of seed and the best fertilizer.Still a third plot is planted with four kinds of sped, which haye shown the best results in the experiments already made, and they will be treated by the various fertilizers manufactured.A duplicate of this experiment in all details will be made next spring.Portions of the experiment will be repeated at Rio Grande, N.J., Kenner, La., Cedar Falls, Iowa, and at several points in Kansas.Prof.Wiley left for Kansas to-night to seiect these experimental stations.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 Two Men Shot in a Saloon.Lyxexs, Pa., May 5.\u2014During a saloon fight last night Sidney Ware shot and killed Morris Miller and fatally wounded

Reason of the Border Troubles about International Ry.Cars, U.5.FRENCHMEN CELEBRATE THEIR CENTENNIAL.The International Chess Tournament Drawing to a Close, \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 COLLECTORS WANT THE BOODLE.The Reason for the Cry Against Canadian Cars Entering the United States Duty Free.Wasursorox, May 5.\u2014The question of exacting a duty upon every Canadian built car that enters the United States does not appear to be giving the Treasury Department a great deal of çoncern, although it is under consideration and is being regarded by scme of the Northwestern people who are interested in it, with a good deal of anxiety.The controversy is an old one renewed.The revival of interest has been attributed to different causes, the chief of which was the alleged growing indifference of the railroad people to be governed by thein- ternational understanding that only cars used in the transportation of the international freight should be exempt from the imposition of duty.The collectors at Detroit an Port Huron have appeared to be particularly interested in having the law strictly enforced and to secure to the Government the payment of duty on every car entering the United States.A gentleman who has been familiar with the merits of the question says that nothing would be heard of it if the Congress should repeal one little clause inthe revised statutes, as follows :\u2014Section 2, 648.Collectors and surveyors of the collection districts on the Northern, Northeastern and Northwestern frontiers are authorized to kee on sale at their several offices blan manifests and clearances required for the business of their districts, and to charge the sum of 10 cents, and no more, for such blank, which shall be prepared and executed by them.The importunity of the Collectors to have the duty imposed on all Canadian cars, even at the risk of provoking retaliation by.the Dominion Government, with possible serious interruption of the international traffic, is declared to be attributable mainly to the desire to secure the largest possible numbers of fees for the sale of blanks.It can easily be understood that the uninterrupted passage to and fro of cars that need no clearance papers, under international agreement, must, to an extent, reduce the income of the Collectors, who are never quite indifferent to compensation.While it is probable that the Treasury officers will be require to keep a sharp lookout to see that Canadian cars are not brought into the United States to be used in the transportation of local freight, it is not at all probable that the regulations will be so applied as to destroy the trade between Canada in cars built in both countries.In connection with this, it should be stated that Senator McMillan, of Detroit, has taken a very positive stand against the imposition of the duty and is anxious that the Treasury Department shall at an early date make an order relieving the railroads in the Northwest from all doubt concerning the application of the law to strictly international traffic.ee INTERNATIONAL CHESS TOURNAMENT.Scores of the Principal Players.NEw York, May 5.\u2014The sixth week of the International Chess Tournament closed yesterday midst intense excitement.Weiss recovered the lead early in the day by beating the boy MacLeod, but was compelled to.surrender if again at the late hour of adjournment, when Burns secured a brilliant victory over Judd.Lipschutz is playing in better form, and has secured a fine win against Blackburne.Tschigorin, who is making a hard fight for the lead, added to his score by defeating Showalter ; Hanam won in beautiful style against Martinez, and Pollack outplayed the French champion Taubenhaus.Burille drew with J.Baird, Mason with Delmar, and an unfinished game

Brunswick, N.J., May 5\u2014The Raritan River Railway Company last night attempted to lay a spur track across Noah Freeman\u2019s land at Sayre- ville, and their employees were resisted by the employees of a brick yard situated on the land.In the fight that ensued George Kissengen, one of the railroad employees, was killed, snd a man named the railroad construction car was burned and the rails spoiled by the fire.The sheriff, with a posse of fifty men took charge of affairs at noon to-day and is preserving order, but tha brickyard men are still belligerent, and have not yet allowed Kisseng:n\u2019s body to be removed.They are mostly foreigners and declare that they will kill any railroad men who attempt to lay rails, The railroad men have not renewed the attack since they were driven away.Kissengen\u2019s neck was broken, but it is not known who killed him and it probably never will be.A number of men on both sides were more or less hurt.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 A NEW SCHEME FOR IRELAND.Paddy to be Made a Bootmaker.Boston, May 5.\u2014A number of prominent citizens of Boston are agitating a plan to help the evicted tenants in Ireland by establishing in one of the poorer districts of the country a factory where the evicted persons can find employment in making boots, shoes, clothing and underwear, the money to start the enterprise being raised by popular subscription among friends of the Irish cause in the United States.The originators of the scheme propose to go to Ireland persmn- ally to supervise the work of carrying it out, and they will first submit the matter to the judgment of Parn ll, Davitt and O'Brien.There wil] be no attempt to do anything which conld possibly lead the English Government

ican residents in Baltimore held a meeting to-day and celebrated the incident of which to-day was the one hundredth an- Diversary \u2014 namely, the reunion of the States General at Versailles in 1789.The walls of the hall were adorned with bunting of blue, white, and red, with flowers interlacing the large rilded ini: tials, \u201cR.F.\u201d (Republique Francaise).Pictures of Gambetta and President Carnot were displayed on the platform.Mr.G.F.De Counay, agent of the French Consulate, made the principal speech.Cries of \u201c Vive la France!\u201d and \u201c Vive la Republique!\u201d were frequent.A motion was adopted to send to France a copy of resolutions setting forth that the Frenchmen of Baltimore heartily joined in the celebration of the centennial of the Government\u2019s reunion at Versailles.It was decided to celebrate July 14 by holding a great picnic, ee SOME AFFRAYS IN OKLAHOXA.Mearranging Town Sites \u2014 A Lady Boomer Shet in the Arm.\u2018Gurnrig, May 4.\u2014 À strong undercurrent of feeling was displayed here yesterday over the plot of the city as laid off by the City Council.It appears that, in order to satisfy the greed of certain settlers, some of the streets were made much narrower than others, and some of the blocks almost twice as long as others.A large corps of surveyors has been working on the plot for some days.The Marshal has begun to clear streets of such obstructions as tents and frame buildings.As a consequence some people have become suddenly aware that they are living in the streets.Those that were forced out of the streets immediately proceeded to jump other people\u2019s lots.No trouble occurred, and it is safe to say that the good sense that prevades the community will prevent any serlous affray.Mies Nannita Daisy, the lady Okia- homa boomer, was shot throûgh the arm by a Santa Fee engineer named Stafford,who had jumped her claim.Miss Daisy was making a visit to her claim after filing it, and was met by Stafford, who fired three shots at her.She is not seriously injured.Stafford appears to have abandened his engine before twelve o'clock Monday in order to stake out his claim.Joseph T.Platt, who had taken a fine claim six miles from Oklahoma City, was fired upon Wednesday afternoon by some person concealed near by, the shot taking effect in his arm.He says a man tried to take the claim after heÿhad begun improvements and he supposes this was the assailant.: DEATH ON A CROSSING.Frighiful Accident to a Coachload of Philadelphia Masons.PrinaperruIa, May 5.\u2014The crossing over the New York Division of the Pennsylvania Railroad at Bridesburg is the most dangerous within the city limits, Houses are built close up to the track on either side, and there is no lagman from 10 p.m.to 6 a.m.The record of four persons killed at this point within the past few months was added to early this morning, when a south-bound fast freight crushed into an omnibus filled with members of the Masonic

Scores a Triumph in an Election.20 \u2014\u2014 ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION OF PRESIDENT CARNOT.Another Madman Wants Notoriety.Paris, May 5.\u2014As President Carnot was leaving the Palace of the Elysees to attend the Centennial celebration at Versailles to-day a stranger drew a pistol, and, pointing it directly at him, fired.The man was immediately seized and a rush was made toward the President to discover the extent of his injury.Mr, Carnot quickly assured the crowd that he was not hurt and the excitement was soon over.The man who did the shooting gave his name as Ferrin aad his occupation as a marine storekeeper.He stated that he had no desire to kill the President, and showed the truth of his assertion by proving that he had fired a blank cartridge.He declared that be had been punished unjustly by the Governor of Martinique, aud his object in firing was solely for the purpose of calling attention to his wrongs and the fact that the persecution he had undergone had reduced him to poverty.He had been unable to obtain redress from his persecutors and believed tha\u2019 his action in firing the blank cartridge would direct the President's attention to his case.Ferrin is evidently insane on the subject of his grievance.THE FETE IN THE HALL OF MIRRORS.President Carnot was enthusiastically cheered by the crowds which lined the way from the palace to Versailles.Upon his arrival he unveiled a memorial tablet affixed to the building in which the States General met 100 years ago to-day.The grand assembly had congregated in the Hall of Mirrors and were addressed by M.Leroyer, President of the Sanate, after Mr.Carnot\u2019s arrival, It was no longer he said deputies of the third estate, to whom the privilege of standing upright was denied, but the elected representatives of the nation were bowing before their freely elected chief to pay tribute to the Great Dead to whom they owed their liberty.\u201cIt becomes those old strugglers for liberty,\u201d he continued, \u201c to remind usthat the revolution not only bequeathed to us doctrines but lessons.If the revolutionists sinned by the audacity of their dreams, we sin by our want of self-abnegation,an incomplete knowledge of our duties and our hesitations of policy.\u201d Mr.Leroyer asked Carnot to raise his voite in order to guide Frenchmen inthe direction of mutual con essions, M.Carnot said: \u201cI greet in the palace of the Old Monarchy the representatives of a nation now in complete possession of herself, the mistregs of Lier destinies, and full of splendor, strength and liberty.The first thoughts of this solemn meeting turn to our fathers.The immortal generation of 1789, by dint of courage and many sacrifices, secured to us benefits which we must bequeath to our sons as a most precious heritage.\u201d He reminded all that in France the personal power of one man was a thing of the past.No matter what title he may take, t: e sole sovereign now is the laws enacted by the representatives of the nation.\u2014\u2014\u2014 DEPLORABLE NUMBER OF INFANTICIDES.Caused Mainly by Infant LifeAssuranece.Lonpox, May 5\u2014Judges at the recent asgizes, especially in the Midland

a child in bed, and then swear it was accidentally overlain ; but as in nearly every case tha poor little victim proves to have been insured, the accident theory scarcely hears examination.Nobody is

Business has been fairly good for this time of year.Stocks have not accumulated very much, only in a few lines of black leather, which has been almost neglected.The price of splits has been especially low, indeed it is a long time in the history of the trade since prime splits have been so cheap.There has, too, been somewbat of à weakeningof values all round, not of any serious moment, and yet sufficient to make the margin of profit to the tanner very small.The demand for heavy weights of harness leather has been rather well maintained.|.Choice selected jobbing sole leather has also been in moderately good request, al- thoughit has eased off to the extent of about one cent per pound.Calf, kip, buff and pebble have held their own fairly, while upper is weaker than either of the others.On the wholedealers are not disposed to find much fault with the volume of business done.This trade, onthe contrary, in the opinion of those who ought to know, has not fallen much, if any, behind that of any other branch of wholesale business in the Dominion.There bave been several failures of late, but fortunately, none of them involving large amounts, and the outlook is anything but dark or depressing.In the American leather markets we find matters quiet.Hides are weak in New York ; there is a liberal supply and a Spiritless demand from tanners.As a consequence stocks are accumulating.Dry selected Buends Ayres were quoted a week ago at 164 cents for 20 to 23 pound sides, and 15 cents for Rio Grande.In Boston, on Saturday, foreign hides were quiet and New England dull, Southern easier.Hemlock sole leather, best B.A., offered at 19} cents.In Chicago, hemlock slaughter sole was moving steadily, prices of upper and splits not strong.ln boots and shoes the fine weather had stimulated demand and makers inthe east were fairly busy all last week on repeat orders.In Chicago, according to the Rcvicw, the shoe manufacturers were working pretty steadily and were constant buyers of leather.ss Quick Time\u20144i8 Hours.\u201cI always use Hagyard\u2019s Pectoral Balsam for colds and it cannot be beaten.It has always cured me within 48 hours, which no other medicine will do, and I always keep a bottle by me.\u201d These words from Chester Miller, Lieury, Oat., prove the efficacy of a popular preparation.me PRODUCE AND PROVISIONS.Breoadstufts.MonTtrEAL, May 4, 1883.Frova\u2014The demand was again limited and the market is unchanged.We quote as follows : Winter Wheat, patent $5.40 Eat Spring Wheat, patent.5.60 6.10 Etraight Roller.5.1 @ 5.30 Extra.\u2026 4.70 5.09 Superfine.3.90 4.55 Strong Bakers'.\u2026 5.20 5.50 Ontario bags\u2014extra.2.35 2.50 City Strong Bakers'.5.85 @ 6.00 OATMEAL :\u2014 Ordinary brl8.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.4.10 @ 4.50 do bags.2.00 @ 2.20 Granulated, bris.4.40 @ 4.80 do 8.2.10 @ 2.25 Rolled Oats.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.2.00 @ 3.00 .3.40 @ 3.50 1.60 @ 1.75 Feed.Bran unchanged at $13.50 per ton, shorts $17.00 per ton, and moullie $22.00 per ten.Grain.Business dull.Prices continue a subject for speculation to a great extent, but may be quoted as foliows:\u2014 Canada Red Winter, $1.16@$1.17;

but the demand was only for the most urgent and immediate requirements, and buyers wanting stock at very low prices generally obtained it, as holders, in anticipation of .still lower prices, lost no opportunities of making sales.To-day trade ig more quiet, aud the feeling closes weak and unsettled, with outside prices extreme.The market is more quiet to-day, buyers who had run out of supplies during the holidays apparently having purchased enough for their wants yesterday.Prices are hardly quotable any lower, but the tone is weak and holders lose no opportunities of making sales even if they have to make further concessions.Fancy Lilgin creamery occasionally works out to à regular trade a trifle higher than we quote, but on the open market 23¢ is about all that can be quoted.Western, other than Elgin, is plenty and irregular.Finest gradesZare Children Crv for urgirg for sale at 22c, and holders rarely allow a buyer to go away at fc or even lc cheaper.Under grades very slow and irregular.New State creamery is plenty.Exceptional marks occasionally work out a trifie higher than we quote, but bulk are freely offered at 0@23e.New State dairy is in free supply and selling slowly, with 22e the top fur close selections, and some lots let go at 21¢ rather than risk holding.All grades of Western packed are ruling dull, and prices weak and irregular.Quotations are unchanged, as follows : ~Cents.\u2014 Creamery, finest.ccoeeeeen 2 @26 Creamery, old.22 Eastern Townshipe.: Morrisburg Brockville.Western.Currse.\u2014The Liverpool cable came today at 52s Gd, which is 6d dearer, the cable being given at 578 yesterday in error.The local trade is dull and unchanged.The New York Commercial Bulletin of Saturday has the following :\u2014Cheese did not suffer to any serious extent by the holiday character of the first three days of the week.Most of the shipments made by the early boats were from previous purchases, and with no important arrivals during Monday, Tuesday and \u2018Wednesday, neither receivers or exporters felt that they had lost any desirable chances.On Thursday, however, when business was resumed under normal conditions there was found to be quite a little snap in the market and values about jc per 1b higber, with coloured stock still keeping ahead of white in point of favour, There was said to be notbing new from abroad of a stimulating character, and the demand here due mainly to natural desire of exporters to keep something moving forward, the idea seemingly being to convey an impression of a conservatively firm market, free from tendency toward special buoyancy.And that is just about the way it closes, pretty much everything of a \u2018desirable and at.character, both in the way of full creams and skims, having been cleaned out, with the rate standing at 9}c(@93c for fancy, and some buyers reporting on the final deals rather the greatest difficulty experienced in finding perfection of white goods.Opinions differ over quality this week, but on the whole it is probably about seasonable, and sellers have not been able to crowd many allowances on the claim for imperfections.Of old cheese, between the shipment of held-over lots, direct consignment (about 6,000 boxes) and some fresh purchases, it is calculated that nearly 10,000 boxes would be shipped this week, and as condition in many instances is getting faulty, the stock is well out of the way.Home trade generally is moderate and confined to parcels for immediate use.Present estimates place the exports for week at 18,500 boxes, of which about two-thirds are fresh purchases.It was altogether a pretty cheerful and healthy sort of market.The interest in new stock has continued sufficient to take off cleanly about all the arrivals considered worth handling on export account and maintain former rates, with fancy colored fairly balancing the outlet, and strictly fancy white a little short if anything, some of the best lots of the latter being reported at 9ic on exceptional deals, while the skims have gone out well at from 8c down for bulk, but a few very fine at 8}c@Sic.The position is also strengthened somewhat by the hole made in old stock this week, about 6,000 boxes going forward on consignment, beside somewhere in the neighborhood of 2,500 boxes thought to have been taken on direct purchase.The terms for the latter are not made public, but it does not make much difference so long as the stocz is to be taken out of the Way, as no one cares for them here.Rumor says, however, that 10c was the highest rate paid by exporters, and that some very nice white sold at 94c.Prices are nominally as follows : \u2014Centg.\u2014 Finest September.9}@103 Finest August \u2026 9 @ 9 Fipe white.vee 83@ 9 Medium.,.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026cressirseuseenses 7 @8 British Breadstuffs and Provision Markets.Liverpool, 11.30 a.m.\u2014Wheat, quiet, demand poor, holders offer moderately.Corn, firm;

they were cultivated in large numbers alongside the walk behind the Manor House, known locally as the \u2018German Forest path,\u201d and by the Earl's directions (given to me personally during the last year of his life) a clump of trees in the park, where the grass grew scantily, was thickly planted with ferns and primroses.Upon these and other grounds I can unhesitatingly assert that they were bis favorite flowers.\u201d \u201d The Gazette of Japan has the following account of a disease which has appeared in that country: In Miara-gun, of this Ken, there has appeared a contagious disease of a terrible nature.Dr.Eldridge and Mr.Fukuda, the President of the Jinzen Byoin (Hospital), visited the scene of the disease and returned to Yokahama on Sunday.The two medical gentlemen, we hear, have never before seen similar cages.A curious feature is that young lads are chiefly attacked byit.It is said to-be more déadly than cholera.In the more serious cases death ensues within 20 hours after the first attack of the disease.From the 20th of March to Sunday, the 31st, there had occurred the following cases : 26 cases at Otawamura, of which 16 ended fatally; 27 in Negasaka- mura, 20 deaths; 1 case at Ashlya-mura; 7 at Seshima-mura, with 3 fatalities; 2.at Hagino-mura, with 1 death; and 1 case at Akia-mura\u2014a total of 64 cas:s, 40 of which ended fatally., The Chinese Times says on March 16th: Chinese accounts from Kai-Teng Pu, giving, as is usually the case, no specific details whatever which can be tested by any light we have, seem confident that the Cheng Chou reparations will stand.It is admitted the leakage is rather considerable, but on the other hand 8,000 or 10,000 workmen, night and day in relays, are engaged in thickening the wall, widening the base and thickening the structure.The difficulties are great, ag the pressure of the water in the great pool tends to undermine or weaken the foundations of the bank ;

his opponent had only 124 minutes\u2019 time to spare on his clock.It took the umpire fully fifteen minutes to start the clock of his opponent, who only then arrived, and sat down to play with his fall 123 minutes to his cradit and just 2} minutes after the game should have been awarded to the aforesaid British player under the time limit rule.On the last byeday Mr.Blackburne was scheduled to play two games.The first was an adjourned game with Mr.Mason, which occupied only ten minutes.The second game was with Mr.Hanham.At the hour of recess Mr.Hanham had made twenty-eight moves only, with two minutes to make two more moves.The position was difticult for Mr.Hanham, as the way he had pressed his time limit shows.It is the time honoured and sensible practice in all European tournaments, where they have great experience in those things, to require players to complete the moves necessary for the hour efore they are permitted to adjourn, so as not to let a player have hours to reflect on moves that otherwise he would have to complete in the remaining fraetion of an hour indicated by his clock.\u2018What Mr.Blackburne sagely anticipated, actually occurred in this case.Mr.anham repaired to the rooms of the New York Chess Club and there analyzed tke position with the aid of Loyd, and others, came back after recess, and won his game.Mr.Blackburne casually went into the New York Club and caught him in the act.As he was only a visitor and guest of the club, he did not feel at liberty to complain of the matter to the umpire or committee.Perhaps he might have acted otherwise had he been previously made to feel the umpire was competent and impartial, but experience was very much to the contrary.At the hour of taking recess Mr, Blackburne had objected to his game being adjourned till his opponent and himself had complated the full complement of moves for the unexpired hour, but the umpire\u2019s judgment and experience were not equal to the emergency.Every experienced person knows how assemblages act.The umpires are active members of the committee of jurors that reviews their decisions.They are pre- gent and have their vote; the opportunity to freely express their views and argue therefor, use their influence and cast their votes.* The rulings of the umpire are, therefore, generally sustained without dae consideration.The case that arose between Messrs.Judd and Tchigorip is a case in point.Jt was the same umpire in both cases.In the Juad-Tchigorin case Mr.Judd claimed the fifty-move rule on Mr.Tchigorin.The umpire committed a capital blunder and decided it was a fifty move position.This means a mate in fifty moves irrespective of exchanges or advancement of pawns! This outrageously absurd decision was entertained by the committee of jurors though there were several pawns on the board! Mr.Tchigorin was annoyed by this decision and immediately resigned from the tournament and began preparations to go heme to Russia and allowed his pending game to go by default on the time limit.He preferred playing real chess in Russia to playing an illegitimate imitation of the game in New York under the decision of a foreigner to us and to him with narrow penitentiary ideas of how our nobles game is to be played.The final hope was in the common sense of the three judges.Messrs.Richardson, De Visier and Frere examined the position where the fifty move rule to mate was applied by the umpire, only to be astonished and to reverse it.Thereupon Mr.Tchigorin returned to the tournament contented and happy.When Mr.Blackburne argued with the umpire in the Hanham adjournment matter the umpire turned round to some bystanders and in his hearing remarked that \u201cMr.Blackburne was talking nonsense.\u201d The bystander replied: \u201cWhen Mr.Blackburne tells one thing and you another, it is you who speak the non- On another occasion, when Mr.Black- burne was reasoning some point in his usual calm and polite way, the umpire turned upon him and, in the presence of all assembled, said loudly : \u201cIf you foreigners think you can bulldoze the committee you will find yourselves mistaken.\u201d Mr.Blackburne sat down to his game evidently astonished and indignant with the speaker who had added to the offence contained in the words by his manner of delivering it and by his seif- conscieus manner in looking around at HE MONTREAL HERALD AND DAILY COMMERCIAL GAZkITE MONDAY.MAY 6 STEAMSHIPS.BEAVER LINE the Centennial parade aod, astonishing to say, declined to send tickets to Mr.Black burne.In lieu thereof Mr.Blackburne received a curt note from the committee to this purport.Since you have called some members \u201cof the committee a set of liars they de- \u201ccline to show you the courtesy they \u201cotherwise would.\u201d 'Lhis disgraceful epistla is no! sign~i by the regular Secretary to the committee.Mr.Blackburne was verr much surprised when be received this extraor- dinery document, and was so put out hy it that Le was unable to play up to his full strenyth during the day of its receipt and he lcst bis game with Mr.Showalter, and atiributes his loss to the troubled state of his wind produced by this annoyance.Astonishing to say Mr.Blackburne was given no opportunity to deny or explain the charge contrary to all our time onored principles of equity and fair play, and has been punished unheard apparently on the untrustworthy hearsay evidence of some exaggerating eavesdropper.Mr.Blackburne has simply wsitten an equally short note to the committee denying the charge.The Chees players of America and Europe will believe the charge when the committee zrores it, and mot till then.Some members of the committes have Leen loud enough in threats that Mr.Pollock would have his courtesies amputated also, simply because he has exercised his right of private judgment in concurring or no} concurring in proposed changes of the rules, but the committee did not go so far as to carry out the repeated threats of those committee men with this genial and popular young chess-player.It seems that the moving spirits in these repeated blunders are foreigners with strong sympathies against British and American chess-players, and are strongly prejudiced in favour of Weiss, Taubenhaus and Lipschuts, and it is to be boped that for the credit of American chess-players that the invariable rule prevalent in all countries where the royal game is fostered \u2018let the best man win\u201d will be rigidly adhered to.[The above matter has been communi cated to Tae HERALD.We know nothing about the merits of the case, and can only regret that there is nothing in the game of chess that ensures fair dealing or gentlemanly language from its votaries, particularly amongst those who make a business of it.\u2014Ep.HERALD.] PEOPLE WHO ARE TALKED

assuming the ideas and fantasies to bg of merit, wa may take it for granted they wiil be dressed in becoming literary garb.\u201c Eos\u2014An Epic of the Dawn\u201d\u2014w ich is the principal poem in Mr.Davin\u2019s volume, is a reflective survey of certain nations and their capitals.The poet is taken up in the chariot of The Dawn and rushed from point to point while the fair goddess gives her opinion upon men and things.The description of \u201c £03\u201d in her feminine form 1s well dque, and throughout there are lines here and there at which the reader will stop to read again.Itis as well to say at once that very much of the poem is necessarily lost upon those who have too hastily acquainted themselves with heathen mythology, or who have been careless in studying beauties too frequently clothed in metaphor of the grossersort.We fear that several of Mr.Davin\u2019s fellow-citizens cf Regina on reading Es will perhaps exclaim, in the new idiom of tue West, \u201c What are you giving us?\u201d But thea it must be remembered that for these pe »- ple Mr.Davin uses the columns of the Leader, while he gives his volumes to the world at large.In the poem of \u201c Eos,\u201d the fair charioteer and her poet start somewhere over the Mediterranean, and pull up for their first stationary view at Athens, where, after musing upon its former greatuess, \u201cEos\u201d says: Change is the only fate.Even Gods are subject to his mighty sway ; Each moment works its will, and as men dream .That they are thus and thus, they cease to be What they conceive themselves.We have our own opinion about these ancient Greeks, which, to use a modern phrase, \u201cdiscounts\u201d considerably the pans so frequently sung in their glorification.The glamour of Thermopylæ and Marathon, and the magnificent genius of Demosthenes and Socrates are apt to conceal from general observation a great deal that warrants the assumption that the modern Greek owes some of his imperfections to his ancestors.Too much has, perhaps, been made of Ancient Grecian achievement.Leonidas with his 300 held back the Persian bow and : arrow army at a defile, but at Fish Creek, Gabriel Dumont, with his 45 Halfbreeds, turned General Middleton and his army of Martini-Henrys and an American gentleman with a Gatling gun.Demosthenes made a magnificent speech on {HE MONTREAL HERALD AND DAILY COMMERCIAL GAZETTE MONDAY.MAY 6 ness of the Thames betweeu London Bridge and Westminster, and to ejaculate, in the language of Regina and and Boston, \u201cOh, come off.\u201d The reflections, however, in the early merning ride which most interest us, are those of the Goddess when arriving over Ottawa.\u201c Eos\u201d is not an omniscient goddess ; she derives her great knowledge from her habit of early rising ; she is in fact the earliest bird of them all, and so picks up the choicest worms of knowledge.The Ottawa worm seems to bave been a rough tough worm for her little inside for she made a great many wry faces over it, and Mr.Davin seems to bave fairly recorded her objections to the goings on at that place.Sostrong was the effect upon her of a sight of the Parliament buildings that it was not uatil \u2018 H-r first convulsions o'er\u201d that she expressed her opinions about it.Then she epoks in good round ailiter- ative English of * factions furious feuds,\u201d of the want of * heart\u201d and *\u2018 faith,\u201d and of \u201cmammon worship,\u201d of \u2018swine guttle\u201d and so forth.There is no direct mention made of the Miaister of Militia or of any individual but the goddess with a very accurate knowledge of the present Ministry and some of those who support it declared * Democracy puts Apes in power,\u201d and spoke of there being worse slaves in this young land than were those whom Pisistratus raled.At the close of her remarks Mr.Davin says her cheeks burned as with a touch of angry red, which, after several pages of enunciation of Ottawa is not to be wondered at.We are only surprised that the corruption of that place did not compel her to clasp her claseic nose between her rosy-tipped and tapering fingers which form a distinct part of Mr.Davin\u2019s pen picture of fair \u201cEos.\u201d The visit to Ottawa gives Mr.Davin an opportunity of describing to the goddess a sunset as seen from the bill, in which he shows considerable nower of description and conveys to the imagination of others a bright and accurate picture of the most difficult thing in pature to describe.On reaching the prairie \u201cEos\u201d contrives to use the story of Endymion, that tortured hunter of the earth\u2019s earlier days, to point a moral concerning the Indians of the Northwest.Her chariot was abroad in the Saskatchewan before the days of the insurrection, and, remembering what she had seen, she tells her mortal cavalier that\u2014 The Indian\u2019s doom should touch your heart.I\u2019ve seen Types disappear before.But kindness On dying races, a8 on dying men Should wait.Mr.Davin\u2019s drive with \u201c Eos\u201d is full of instruction and pleasant imaginings, and we hope that he may make other trips with other goddesses ; we feel quite safe in assuming that he will choose the fair divinities ; but we sincerely hope that if any of the sterner folk of Mount Olympus should be his companions he will be careful not to incur the risk of taking them to Ottawa.It cannot exalt us in their opinion, and the consequences of any angry heathen getting behind the scenes of the Capital might be fatal to the city.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 1HAT DELAYED APPOINTMENT.The fast and loose manner in which the City Council is dealing with the appointment of Superintendent of the Water Works is causing a good deal of comment throughout the city.For that position Mr.B.D.McConnell, Assistant Superin- tendent\u2014who has practically been discharging the duties of superintendent for nearly a year\u2014was recommended by the Water Committee.This appointment, and that of Superintendent for 8t.Helen\u2019s Island, were put down on the order paper as the flrst business for last meeting of Council, and it was clearly understood that both vacancies would then be filled.The latter appointment was promptly made, but that of Superintendent of the Water Works was sent over till next meeting.Why this was done no one has ventured to explain, but the circumstance has given rise to the belief that the delay was secured to enable Alderman Rousseau\u2019s friends to manipulate matters in his interest, and deprive Mr, McConnell of the promotion to which be is entitled by every consideration of justice and equity.If this be the case, and if Mr.McConnell is euchred out of the appointment to which he is entitled, for which he is eminently well qualified by knowledge, technical training and experience, and for which he has been recommended by the Water Committee, the action will be most unjust, it will be little short of an outrage ; and it need not | be surprising if many people arrive at the conclusion that the majority of the Council have tacitly agreed that so far as concerns appointments to civic positions, no English-speaking person need \u201cthe Crown \u201d question, occupying several .hours in delivery, but let our own Han- sard be examined by future ages.We know the Greeks of to-day; we are familiar with some very queer stories of Plato's countrymen and we question whether there has been quite so much change as \u201cEos\u201d would have us believe.But let us get back to Mr.Davin's aerial ride.Rome, Paris, London, and Ireland are visited by the goddess and ber companion, and if the beautiful and prophetic enthusiasm: of the lady could be regarded as infallible, statesmen would do well to read Mr Davin's volume with great attention.Indeed, viewing it as a political mirror fashioned by a friendly hand, they might gain something by studying it without considering the question of inspiration.Allowances must, of course, be made for a poet's idea.For instance, when Me.Davin tells us that they saw St.Paul's great dome and St.Stephen\u2019s oraata tower mirrored in the can but mnrky tide, we are apt to remember the murki- ! | i ! | | | | | apply.It would be most undesirable if the Council should, in the matter of this or any other appointment, take action which might give rise to such a feeling.The consequences would be most unpleasant foreverybody, and would seriously disturb the harmony and good feeling which so largely prevail among our citizens with regard to civie affairs.Even if the qualifications of Alderman Rousseau, for the position, were on a par with those of Assistant Superintendent McConnell, which they are rot, respect for the principle of promotion, regard for the experience of the latter and for his practical knowledge of the working details of the Water Works Department, should sacure him the preference over Alderman Rousseau or any other candidate.Whatever may be the qualifications of other possible candidates whose names have been mentioned, Bo far as Ald.Rousseau is concerned, no one but himself seriously pre- tencs that he is qualified for the position.Under all the circumstances his appointment would be most unwise, would be t \u20ac acknowledgement of a vicious prace- dent, and might be attended with dis- a!rous consequences in the management of the Water Works, where technical knowledge and lengthened experience are so essential We hope the City Council will not delay this appointment any longer, and that they will do the wise and proper thing by promoting the assistant superintendent to the superintendency, the duties of which he has faithfully and efficiently discharged for nearly a year.Such a solution of the question will give satisfaction to the public and ensure continued confidence in the management of so important a department of the civic service a; the Water Works, A TRUE MACDONALDITE.Your true Macdonaldite Tory is too often a bully.He may disguise his nature at times, but scratch him and itis revealed.A Chicago crowd recently rough handled a man who was flaunting an Anarchist flag, and the Toronto journal of Macdonaldism uses the episode to imply that these who do not approve of Bir John\u2019s fiscal policy are traitors, etc, and should be treated as the Chicago Anarchist was.This is the same mad journal that proposed that opponeats of the N.P.should be shot in their tracks.The Canadian who disapproves of Macdonaldism and its partnership with the combines is a traitor, only fit to be shot.In fact anyone who opposes Macdonaldism in any of its phases is an outcast, etc, etc.That is the kind of dogma which the Empire teaches and which a great many Macdonaldites believe.Their idol is the only god ; they are the salt of the earth ; Canada and all that therein is belcngs to them ; they are the gentry of the country and the rest are\u2018 \u201cthe lower orders:\u201d free speech when directed against their plans is treason, against their idol is blasphemy.These Macdonaldite creatures do not know what freedom means ; it is not in their little souls to grasp the benefits of liberty.They ara a Brummagem and misshapen imitation of something they have heard of and which they flatter themselves they resemble, while they are as far from their prototypes as a fungus is from a peach.That they are saved from utter reproach is due to the fact that in the party, of which they count themselves the ornaments, there are people of a different stripe, for whose merits the blatant idiocy of the others is forgiven.The outbursts of their acknowledged journals are harmless in Canada for no one either respects their pretensions or follows their advice, but thev are.mischievous for one reason and one reason alone; thg danger they create that strangers in other countries may come to know how poor a thing & Canadian Tory may be.They are a libel on the country, but must be borne with as are other ills which nations are compelled to bear.Canada must bear its cross, and that is typified by journals like the Torouto Empire and the Hamilton Spectator.One thing these people would do well to remember is that, 80 soon as they take the first step towards putting their theories into practice they will be rudely awakened to a knowledge of much which at present does not appear to be dreamt of in their philosophy.THE GOVERNMENT DEFEATED IT, The Halifax Tory organ, in pursuance of ita usual policy of jumping at conclusions without taking cognizance of the facts, charges that the Grits defeated the Short Line bill in the Senate.That will do for a story to tell to foolish Tories not to sensible men.As the Senate stands somewhere about fifty-seven Conservatives to twenty Liberals it was practically impossible for them to defeat the measure even if they stood together on the question, if the Government were determined that the measure should pass.The fact is Sir John Macdonald, in fore- ing the measure through the House of Commons, found that it was obnoxious to a majority of the Conservative members, but under pressure of threats of dis- solutibn they were constrained to support it, very much against their convictions.In order to get out of the hole in which he had been placed by Sir Charles Tup- per\u2019s wild pledges and unveracious statements, the Premier had to permit or arrange for ita defeat in the Senate.That is very well understood in Ottawa.Of course, the Liberals, with very few exceptions, opposed the construction of the Harvey-Salisbury branch by the Government as a wicked waste of public money, but to say that they were able to | defeat the measure in the face of the Government's large majority in both Houses, is entirely * too thin\u201d a story.If Sir John Macdonald had been particularly anxious to carry out the pledges made by Sir Charles Tupper to Halifax, he could have whipped his senatorial supporters into line.That he did not do 80 is pretty good evidence that he connived at its defeat in the Upper House.The Halifax Herald may as well understand that the Government is responsible for the defeat of the Harvey-Salisbury Branch bill AMERICAN papers are publishing * facsimile\u201d pictures of George Washington as he looked about the time of the Revolutionary war.He must have been a manof many countenances, as no two of the pictures published are alike.If the \u201c Father of his country \u201d could come back to earth he would probably institute libel suits against some ten thousand or more papers for caricaturing him, S Mr PARNELL\u2019s admission in the box that he deliberately deceived the House of Commons to gain a political end seems to have checked the tide of public favour which had set his way.SOUIBS.\u2014She\u2014What do you think of this fad of having the hand photographed * He\u2014I think a pretty girl can have her hand taken without going to the photographers.\u2014*It must be awfully nice to owna yacht,\u201d maid Mrs.Knowlittle.\u2018\u2018 You can go to Europe then without having to pay the enormous priees these transatiantic lines ask.\u2014Miss Point Player\u2014Mercy!

ordered bis supporters in the Senate to vote against it, and they obeyed.This is a variation of the \u201cto-morrow\u201d system, and a great deal more shameless.\u2014London Adver- tizer, AS IT IS IN PRACTICE.The tail of the British lion has not been twisted according to promise by the present Administration.The President bas an Englishman for private secretary, employs English servants in the White House and has selected an Englishman to count the 60,000,000, { more or less, of American people and make known to the rest of the universe how they get their living.That vigorous American policy has not been inaugurated at the White House at least.\u2014 Philadelphia \u2018imes, CORRECT AND TO THE POINT.\u201cIt may be a surprise to many Canadians to learn,\u201d writes a correspondent

excel, the very best on any line in the United States, and far surpass those of the ordinary lines of U, 8.railways.\u201d Yes, the Canadians can hold their own in a fair field and po favor with their Yankee neighbors in railways and in everything else.It is only the Tory politicians and the combinesters who think differently.They never lose an opportunity to argue that we are a set of incapables\u2014poor, puny, stunted men and women\u2014unable to make a living unless under continual government tutelage.But we know the reason why.But such gross deception, with the aid of the partisan revising barrister and other wily schames, these tricksters hope to be able to continue the plundering of the people.\u2014 Hamilton Times.* GOING IT.\u201d The Commons has voted against the disallowance of the Jesuits Estates Act, reform of the Customs law, unrestricted trade, the proposition that Canada solicit authority to negotiate treaties, the taking of a plebiscite upon the question of pro- bibition, the passage of a prohibitory law, the reduction of the expenditure, and the extension to the farmers of the favour extended to distillers and brewers of securing corn free of duty when it is required in the business of manufacturing for export.It also voted against the extension of tiie modus vivendt for another year, an expression of opinion which the Government, for reasons which were as obvious when the vote was taken as afterwards, did not respect.If, however, the legislation has been meagre and the de- sirefto amend bas been weak, the disposition to lay out money has more than held its own.The Finance Minister reported a deficit of $860,000 on last year\u2019s financial transactions, exclusive of the sums paid out of capital account, yet the following expenditures have been placed before Parliament for its approval: Estimates, 1889-90.[ON $ 14.635,837 Supplementaries, 1889-90.een 1.813.250 HY Exchange, and one little slip in the direction of repudiation may cost the country and the business men who form the back bone of it untold loss.The conditions in the prospectus were not made by those who were to take up the stock, but by those who were to float the loan.They were at perfect liberty to modify any expression of intention in any way they pleased as had been done in the case of former loans.If when called upon to act upon that expression of intention they plead that the terms are not what they expected, innocent people who have bought on the strength of the prospectus may be disappointed.If thereby the credit of Canada suffers, the credit of every province and every municipality of Canada suffers.The people of the Dominion in t! eir corporate capacity are too deep in the books of the London Exchange to view with equanimity any such matter as this.The opinion was expressed during the debate on this subject that the Finance Minister would have to take back what he had said.If that is likely to be the case, it 18 to be hoped that he will take it back soon, for the longer it stands the more harm it is likely to do.\u2014 The Budget.DIED.STUART.\u2014In this city on the 3rd inst.at the residence of her

fallen into the same error as some other journals in regard to the Short Line Railway bill boisted in the Senate on Wednesday last.The bill was not a bill for the appropriation of merely the £500,000 contained in the Estimates and intended for surveys and explorations of the contemplated line, but a bill to authorize the construction of the missing link, as a Government work, and to provide all the millions necessary for the completion of the entire branch.When the Supply came to the Senate on the last day of the session, Senator Miller asked the leader of the House, Hon.Mr.Abbott, if the sum of $500,000, voted in the Estimates for the Short Line Railway, was contained in the bill, alleging that if that sum were included, he would not agree ta the suspension of the rules of the House necessary to the passage of the bill on that day, unless the Government gave a distinct pledge that no part of it would be expended until the construction of the road was authorized by Parliament.Senator Abbott at once rose and said that he would positively promise that not one dollar would be spent on the proposed Short Line until the construction of the work was authorized by act of Parliament.Ottawa, May 3, 1889, SPECTATOR.BASEBALL.AMERICAN ASSOCIATION, BROOKLYN, May 5.\u2014The Brooklyn and Athletics played 10 a large crowd to-day.The game was stopped at the fifth innings on

SHOULD LIVE IN BOSTON.In the Mobile city directory for the current year is found the name \u201c Pork and Beans,\u201d which belongs to a fisherman residing on Water street.The man went there about two years ago as a sailor on board a vessel from the Mediterranean, and.cast his lot with some fishermen he found there.He was reticent concerning his past history, and, having developed a fondness for pork and beans, his companions, for want of a better name, addressed him as \u201cPork and Beans.\u201d Gradually he came to recognize this name and adopted it as his own.He owns some property in his native land, snd a young man who has been conducting his correspondence signs his letters \u201cPork and Beans.\u201d The fisherman has also received letters bearing this address: \u201c Pork and Beans, Mobile, Ala.\u201d es \u2018WAR MATERIAL.OF AMERICAN DESIGNING.Much ot the Hodern Machinery of War Found to be of American Origin.Scientific American: The world moves go fast and improvements follow one another in such rapid succession that the work of original designers is often lost amid a maze of modifications, and the imitator becomes famed above the artist.If we turn to modern war machinery we shall find apt illustrations of this and in most of tha effective material in the great European armaments behold the cunning fashioning of the Yankee inventor.Admiral Porter has told us that the guns at Hampton Roads\u2014the Monitor and Merrimac fight\u2014re- sounded through the world and announced to the British that their great steam fleet\u2014the finest in the world at that time\u2014was obsolete.The great iron fleets of to-day have been developed frcm the monitor germ.The liquid compass, that makes it possible to navigate iron and steel ships, is the invention of Mr.Ritchie, of Brookline, ass, The world talk of the Krupp gun, yet how few are aware of the fact that it wag only through the invention of the American Col.Bradwell that Herr Krupp was enabled to make his guns effective ?Gen.S.V.Benet, Chief of Urdnance, U.S.A., speaking on this subject, says : \u201c All modern steel guns are of one or two systems, either the Krupp bolt system or the interrupted screw used in the French service.©ur guns are of the latter system, which seems to offer the greatest advantages.Like all good modern inventions, it is an American one.So, for that matter, is the Krupp, or rather what gave Krupp\u2019s invention the practical value.The great trouble with the Krupp gun was the escape of gas at the breech.This was overcomes by the aid of the \u2018 Bradwell plate,\u2019 the invention of Col.Bradwell, an American wbo sold Krupp the invention.It cop.sists of a thin steel plate, with elastic edges, that fits in the breach, and the pressure of the gas wecges it tightly against the sides and pru.en 3 the escape of gas.\u201d The machine gun, that terrible weapon row so important a part of the great European armaments both on land and sea, is primarily an invention of the American, Dr.Gatling ; the French mitrailleuse is a modification of it, 80 is the Nordenfelt.In June, 1883, Nordenfelt brought suit against Gardner, inveator of the Gardner machine gun, fur infringement.Gardner showed that the princi- bles on which the Nordenfelt gun was constructed had long been deveiopad in the American Gatling machine gun and Winchester rifle, indeed long before 1873, when Nordenfelt got his English patent.It may fairly be said that this principle has found its highest development in the automatic gun of the American, Hiram Paxim, a gua which will fire 600 shots a minute, the re:.il being utilized to load and fire and to keep a stream of water moving about the barrels for cooling.The disappear- Ing gun mechanism is also his invention.The screw propeller, an invention that makes 1t possible to sink the motive rower of a war ship, within and without, outof range of flying shot, though first tried in British waters, found no favor till Captain Ericsson came bither.The revolver, now in universal use, is, as everybody knows, the invention of Col.Colt, of Connecticut.We may add to the list the dynamite gun, yet in the infancy of its development, and the dynamite cruiser, intended to make up for its shortcomings in point of range, of which an English authority recently said there was not probably a ship afloat that would be safe before it.The torpedo, now holding 80 important a place among war material, wag first made practical and effective during our last war; its cousin, the automobile torpedo, of comparatively recent designing, is also American, though there are several foreign forms of the same.\u2014_\u2014 Excited Over a Skeleton.NorwaLx, Conn., May 3.\u2014In Stamford, on Wednesday, labourers at work on George Baldworth\u2019s farm dug up a human skeleton, which was found buried about a foot under ground.The discovery has created something of a sensation and weird stories are being told of people who have suddenly disappeared.One is that a demented woman named Adams disappeared a year or 80 ago, and was never heard from.The skull of the skeleton was crushed.There was nothing about the discovery to lead to an identification, and the indications are that the mystery will never be unraveled.\u2014\u2014 Seattered Coffins A bout the Street.INDIANAPoLIS, May 4\u2014A ghastly accident was witnessed in one of the principal streets of Indianapolis +o-day, when a team attached to a wagon loaded | with coffins containing corpses that were being transferred from an old cemetery to a new one became frightened and ran ; away.While dashing down the street at breakneck speed.the wagon tongue dropped and ploughed into the ground.The wagon was upset and its impetus carried it forward, landing it upon the backs of the horses.Coffins were scattered along the street.One burst wide open and the skull of a skeleton rolled on the ground, while bones were thrown about promiscuously.\u2014 PROTECTED TO DEATH.A Massachusetts Town Bereft of Its Glass Industry.Bosrox, May 4.\u2014Protected to death would be a fitting epitaph for the Boston and Sandwich Glass Company.It is dead beyond recall, althougn it still declines to have the last rites administered.The last act in the losing contest with protection, of which the members of the company have been and are obstinate advocates, was the sale of the entire stock of cut glassware, including all at the factories in Sandwich and all the company\u2019s warehouses in this city, to Jones, Mec- Duffee & Stratton, of Boston, the sale also including the moulds.The company thus paried with everything except its real estate and building plant at Sandwich, which it will be very difficult to dispose of, even if it is fres from incumberance.It ends a manufacturing business of fifty years, onc: thriving, but of late years 1noribuud, and about the only mechanical industry of the town of Sandwich.It manufactured a superior quality of fine cut glassware and long did it at a profit, in spite of the fact that the competing Pennsylvania manufacturars procured their coal at litt'e more thau one- half what it cost the Sandwich company After a business of forty years labour agitators finally reached this quiet little village, and labour troubles followed in their steps and added to the firm\u2019s difficulties.Then came the application to glass manufactures of natural gas in the West at a cost much less tnan coal, still further complicating matters for this Eastern concern.During the last few years it has simply been a vain struggle against the inevitable.The tariff on coal prevented the ample coal deposits of Nova Scotia from being dumped on the company\u2019s wharf at Sandwich at a price which would enable it to manufacture glassware at a profit, for the eompany\u2019s goods have always been in fairly steady demand without much ragard to the price of the goods of Pennsylvania or Western manufacturers.The same tariff on coal, of course, forced it to pay wbatever the Pennsylvania coal ring demanded, but the company did what it could to continue the system by which it was oppressed.Several months ago, or shortly aftar the success at the polls of the policy it advocated, it decided to close up a business that had been practically discontinued during the last two or three years.A portion of its plant was transferred to the West, where untaxed gas furnished a cheap and reliable fuel, and the company has now finally got rid of all its manufactured products.UNDER THE CRIMES\u2019 ACT.Conybeare Gets Three Months, While Professor Harrison is Discharged.Dreriy, May 3.\u2014The court at Fulcar- ragh has sentenced Mr.Charles Cony- beare, member of Parliament for the Camborne division of Cornwall, to three months\u2019 imprisonment, without hard labour, for conspiring to oppose the law.Notice of appeal has been given, and Mr.Conybeare has been admitted to bail.Professor Harrison, who was arrested on the charge of assisting besiezed tenants at Gweedore, has been discharged from custody.MR, CONYBEARE'S CRIME.On the 17th inst.Mr.Conybeara, M.P., Mr.Benson and Mr.Harrison, of Balliol College, Oxford, started for Ful- carragh with supplies of food, water and fuel for the tenants whom the authorities were attempting to starve out from their homesteads.At each housa they found armed patrols of policemen.The dwellings were barricaded from within to keep out the police, but by ascending the roof .and lowering a basket through the chimney they were enabled to supply every family with the necessaries of life.When they had reached the house of Patrick McGinley, a police patrol, under the command of Head Constable Mahony, came up and watched the operations, Mr.Harrison called to the inmates to open the door a little till he was able to throw in som provisions, and bis request was repeated in Irish by a number of boys who accom panied them.The order was complied with and some bread and tea thrown in but before the police could obtain admission the door was closed again.Mahony then placed Mr.Harrison under arrest, accusing him of forcibly entering a dwelling house.Mr.Benson, who accompaaied Mr.Harrison from Oxford, said tuat he had been guilty of the same \u201ccrime\u201d as his friend and comrade, and invited ths police to place Lim also under arrest.A similar course was pursued by Mr.Cony- beare.The constabulary, however, ra- fused to do 80, and those gentlemen intimated their intention of proceeding from house to house till their work was completed.This was done, and at Mr.Harrison's request he returned alone with the police, who formed a cordon around him.The police refused not only bail, but access to the prisoner on the part of Mr.O\u2019'Hea, M.P., as his solicitor.Mr.Conybeare thereupon went to the bedroom of the resident magistrate, Mr.Cameron, who was staying at the police barracks.Mr.Conybeare knockled loudly for several minutes at the bedroom door, but no response was returned, acd finally Mr.Conybeare entered the room.Mr.Cameron, jumping from his bed, shouted loudly, \u201c Get out of my house, or I'll throw you out.How dare you come into my house at ome o,clock in the morning?Get out, sir !\u201d Mr.Conybeare said that he called to see whether, as magistrate, he was going to order Mr.Harrison's release on bail till this morning.Mr.Cameron\u2019s reply was emphatic :\u2014\u201c No, I'll take no bail.Gêt out of my place this instant, or l\u2019Il arrest you by \u2014! IfTd my clothes on I'd arrest you.\u201d Mr.Conybeare said he certainly had every reason to thank him for his dignified, gentlemanly and magisterial demeanor and left the house.At eleven o'clock Mr.Harrison was brought before Mr.Bourke, R.M., in Fal- carragh Barracks.Mr.Harrison was represented by Mr.Conybeare, who acted in his capacity as counsel, being instructed by Mr.0\u2019Hea, M.P.The deposi tion baving been completed, Mr.Cony beare said he had to protest most em phatically against the fact that neither be nor Mr.O\u2019Hea had been permitted to visit their client.He also protested against the extraordinary conduct of the divisional magistrate, Mr.Cameron.The magistrate said he would adjourn the case and admit the prisoner to bail.Mr.Conybeare said he was instructed by the prisoner to state that he would find no bail.The charge was that of supplying loaves of bread to starving peasants beseiged by the bayonets of the military, and if it were a crime against the Coercion law he would appeal to the English people and he was prepared to try the issue.The accused said that he recognized no offence in giving charity, and having been subjected to so many indignities before bail pes offered, he now scorned to give any ail.PATENTS!

Late Robert Willis.As the late Robert Willis\u2019 death brought to light the great burden of his short life, it is not only in justice to his memory, but as an encouragement to such rare .| and noble principles in others, that the wiole truth should be widely published.Young Robert Willis early imbibed the spirit of his father\u2019s two greatest mottoes, first, \u201cOwe no man anything,\u201d and second, * Do your duty even to the death.\u201d It was a favorite expression with the stern disciplinarian, James Willis, J.P., \u201c Victory or death.\u201d His son bettered the instruction, obtaining victory with his life.Mr.Robert Willis was not a partner of Willis & Co.in the strict sense of the term.Practically he was an employee only, and on salary he paid off the whole debt that was compromised by his financial ruin, resulting from the great mining disaster in Nova Scotia ten years ago.At his death $1,600 remained unpaid, but since the funeral it has been all wiped out, one hundred cents in the dollar having been paid.The deceased gentleman has also left bequests to two Montreal institutions for Christian work among young men.He died at thirty-eight.Had he lived to an old age the possibilities of such a life would have been very great.His family are also provided for.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 A MOTHERS LOVE.Just before the circus opeaed one summer\u2019s afternoon, a woman, accompanied by her son, a boy about sixteen years of ege, appeared on the ground, and was the first at the ticket waggon.When the window was open, tha mother said to the ticket seller: \u2014\" It you will be so kind as to let a poor widow woman\u2019s Johnny into the circus, he will carry water to the elephant.\u201d \u201cStand back, madam, stand back, he cried, as he took a half-dollar over her head.She took her boy by the hand, and marched to the entrance of the big tent, explaining to the man a§ the door, \u201cMy Johnny is going to carry hay to the camels.\u201d \u201cYou and your Johnny carry yourself right out of this was the very emphatic reply.\u201cCouldn\u2019t we both get in for 10 cents, if we sat on the ground ?\u201d \u201cNo, ma'am.Stand back, now; you are in the way.\u201d They fell back for consultation.The boy had tears in his eyes, and his mother looked determined.g \u201cDon\u2019t cry, Johnny, dear\u2014your mother loves you, and will get you in,\u201d she consolingly remarked as she led him to the ticket waggon.Crowding and pushing her way in, she called out, \u201cThis boy\u2019s father was a preacher, and you ought to let him in free.\u201d \u201c Stand back, ma\u2019am, stand back,\u201d was all the answer she got.\u201cCan\u2019t you let us in for 10 cents ?\u201d \u201c No, no.\u201d She drew the boy out of the crowd and took à walk round the tent.There was a spot where the canvas was raised a little, and, as she halted there, she said, \u201c Johnny, a mother\u2019s love can surmount every obstacle.I'll stand here, and you crawl under the tent.\u201d She spread her skirts as far as possible, and the boy made a dive and disappeared.In about ten seconds he reappeared in the shape of a ball, and he didn\u2019t stop rolling until he had gone thirty feet.The mother straightened him out, lifted him up, and enquired what had happened.\u201cI\u2014I don\u2019t exactly know,\u201d said the boy, as he looked back at the tent, \u201c but I guess I don\u2019t care for any more mother\u2019s love.I'll take pink lemonade in place of it.\u201d .ee AMERICAN RELATIONS WITH CANADA.Senator Hoar, of the Committee An- pointed to Investigate Tham, \u2018falks.[Chieago Tribune, 3rd.] Tie Senate Committee on Relations with Canada will hold its first meeting to-day at the Grand Pacific to confer as to the work to be

10 o'clock for San Francisco.The committee consists of Senator Hoar, chairman; Senators Allison, Hale and Dolph, Republicans; and Senators Pugh, Butler and Voorhees, Democrats.Ser- geant-at-Arms Reade said yesterday afternoon word had been received that Senator Voorhees might not ke able to ! accompany the committee, and in that case Senator Gray of Delaware would probably take his place.Senator Hoar was found in his room at the hotel.\u201cIt would be obviously improper,\u201d he said in reply to the inquiry, \u201cfor me to talk much of what we hope to do before I have seen the other members of the committee.As yet we have practically had no conference.The last session closed with so much work that we were all too busy to get together.The meeting in this city is for the purpose of holding our first conference.\u201d \u201c\u2018Are the reports of the mission of the committee practically correct?\u201d he was asked.\u201cSo far ag 1 have seen them, the reports state too much.I have seen that we are to act on the railway relations between this country and Canada.There was a general provision made for investigating the commercial relations of the two countries, but the work of our committee will not cover the entire ground.You may say that, go far as there is to be an investigation into railway affairs, it will be done by Senator Cullom\u2019s committee, which was appointed for that specific purpose.We shall not interfere nor conflict in any way with the work of Senator Cullom\u2019s committee, which will make the railway interests its particular business.\u201d \u201c You are not going to the coast, then, to investigate the operations of the Canadian roads 7\u201d - \u201c We are not.\u201d The resolution creating the two com- mittées referred to their mission as\u201c to report upon tbe relations of the commerce and business existing between the United States and the dependencies of Great Britain in America.\u201d The following clause of the resolution was read to Senator Hoar :\u2014* To investigate whether the obligations of exist- ng treaties and of international law are and have been observed by the people of both countries, and the number, amount, and character of existing claims against Great Britain by reason of violation of such obligation toward the people of the United States in such dependencies.: \u201cDoes that mean that your work is the trouble ?\u201d Le was asked.\u201cIn a general way,\u201d he replied, CI think \u2018I may say it covers the tisheries question, but I do not wish to talk in detail of the matter until I have seen the committee.1 have carefully prepared plans of the work formulated, which I will submit to the committee to-morrow.After the conference I may have more to say.\u201d PUREST, STRONCEST, BEST, CONTAINS NO ALUM, AMMONIA, LIME, PHOSPHATES, or any injurious matsrials.=ORONTO, ONT.E.W.GILLETT, CHICAGO, ILIa Mas°Pr oftho CHLEBRATED SôVALYEASTCAEES- IN USE 100

but before the pretty maid could find time to answer, the con- voice, high and loud, which came whistling shrilly from within, \u2014 \u201c What is the matter, Mary ?\u201d The pretty maid looked up reproachfully at the detective.\u201cIt's a gentleman, marm, inquiring for Mr.Dane.\u201d \u2018 8o,\u201d thought the detective to himself, \u201c there's a Mr.Dane as well as a Mra.Dane, a Miss Ellen, and the children, and Miss Leslie.\u201d \u201c Meet me at eight o\u2019clock to-night on the corner,\u201d Eley hurriedly whispered.\u201cI should like to talk with you some more about lovers;\u201d and witb a smile of meaning the detective turned away.Evidently the pretty maid might prove of service.The remainder of the afternoon was passed in making inquiries relative to Mr.Dane.Mr.Dane was a produce merchant, well-to-do, but not rich.The family consisted of his wife, two daughters, of whom Leslie was the younger, and three boys.Insummer the family lived in Coverly, a small town twenty-two miies by rail from Dashford.It was therefore necessary that Miss Leslie Dane should be followed to Cover- ly, but the detective was still uncertain whether he should undertake this task himself or intrust Miss Leslie to the charge of his assistant.On the one hand, the study of Leslie Dane promised the richer reward; while on the other, the pursuit of Edgerton presented the greater difficulty.Finally the detective decided to intrust Miss Dane to his assistant; and Durcan was accordingly instructed and despatched, Eley having promised to acquaint him with the result of his subsequent interview with the servant-maid.At seven o'clock the detective betook himself tothe place of rendezvous, and he did nof wait long before the pretty servant-maid appeared, provided with a letter to post, by way of excuse for keeping the appointment with her chance acquaintance.But it soon became apparent that the pretty maid had come to talk about her- self-and not about Miss Leslie Dane.She quickly became agrieved by the interest her companion displayed in the ladies of the house next door, and the detective ceuld extract from ber nothing whatever in relation to Miss Leslie Dane.Both the participants in this side-walk conversation were bitterly disappointed at the turn that affairs bad taken, until at length the pretty maid took leave of Hley with strong expressions of disapprobation and disgust.The detective, however, was by no means discouraged.He had expected little ; and, after all, he bad got what he expected.Few men could do more.He left his scornful companion and walked j slowly down the street.Duncan would take care ot Miss Dane.He must concentrate his own \u2018mind upon the best method of following Edgerton.i CHAPTER XIII | DUNCAN MAKES A POINT.| Duncan, according to his employer's Instructions, took the evening train for : Coverly, and established himself at the i hotel.In many ways the assistant was I better qualified for the task before him i than was Eley himself.He was a fine i looking man, with a refined face and | gentlemanlike bearing; and, when | dressed after the fashion of the times, he : appeared more like a gentleman of leisure than like the trained detective he really was.The instructions which Eley bad given bim were that he should gain the acquaintance of Miss Dane and learn all Le could in regard to her former life, Especially was he to find out what | Miss Dane had done on the day of the ; murder.It would be a matter of com- | paratively little difficulty for Duncan to : gain an intreductionto Miss Dane.Cov- erly was an unfashionable summer re | sert, and the habits of the summer visit i crs were essentially social.The first morning of the detectire\u2019s sn- i journ in Coverly was fraught with little | interest; be bad merely lounged about versation was interrupted-by a woman\u2019s | the hotel and made the acquaintance of some of the other guests.One young gentleman, a Mr, Blandin by name, had received the detective\u2019s advances with much cordiality, and bad painted the attractions of the town in glowing colours to his new-found friend.Mr.Blandin had teen in Coverly the previous summer, and was well acquainted with the various facilities of the town for enjoyment, as well as with its numerous sum- merresidents.Of the Dane family, however, the young gentleman had said nothing ; and Duncan, having represented himself as a total stranger to the inhabitants of the town, could ask to direct questions regarding the Danes without subjecting himself to suspicion.As has been stated, Duncan was an impulsive man\u2014a man who inwardly chafed at any constraint; but his principal's caution rang in his ears, and in the present instance he elected the Fabian policy, He would wait, in the meantime keeping his eyes and ears open.After all, Coverly seemed a pleasant place, and Dashford was hot in May.When the hotel dinner was over Duncan and Blandin lounged out upon the piazza, smoking their cigars and discussing such subjects as young men are ace customed to find of interest.Duncan was a ready story-teller, and Blandin was kept in a continual state of merriment by the anecdotes of his companion.But suddenly in the midst of one of these anecdotes Mr.Blandin became pre-occu- pied; and Duncan, noticing that his companion was not listening, followed the direction of his gaze to two young women who were standing together on the opposite side of the street.Blandin quickly excused himself, crossed the street, and joined the two young women, who greeted him somewhat distantly, as the detective thought.Duncan cast away his cigar and strolled lazily into the office.* Who are those young iadies Mr.Blandin is talking to ?\u201d he asked of the bell-boy, who was sitting in the window.The boy looked up at him with mingled insolence and expectancy.But as he caught sight of the gleam of a silver piece in the detective\u2019s hand, the expectant expression overcame its rival, and he answered civilly,\u2014 .\u201cThe two Miss Danes, sir.They live up to the yellow house at the end of the street.\u201d **Mr.Blandin seems to know them pretty weil,\u201d remarked the detective with a show of carelessness.\u201cGuess he does,\u201d the boy retorted.\u201cHe's a dead gone smash on the youngest one !\u201d \u201cSo,\u201d whistled the detective softly to himself as he turned away and sauntered back to his \u2018place of observation on the piazza again, \u201cThat's why he didn\u2019t speak of them, is it?That will make pretty plain sailing for me, I guess,\u201d Duncan surveyed the group on the opposite side of the way with ill-disguised interest.It was too far off for him to distinguish plainly the faces of the two young women ; Je he could see that both were tall and showily dressed.Then he saw Blandin respectfully raise his hat to them and cross the street again, while the two ladies entere® a neighbouring cottage.\u201cPretty girls,\u201d the detective carelessly remarked, as Blandin seated himself at his side.\u201cYes,\u201d answered his companion.\u201cThe younger one seemed particularly beautiful,\u201d Duncan continued inthe same careless tone, \u201cbut rather young, I thought.I must say, I thought the older lady the more attractive of the two.I like maturity myself.1 never find anything attractive in very young women.\u201d Blandin looked at his companion with pleased surprise.The detective had made a bold stroke and had won success.He had assumed that if Blandin was in love with the younger Miss Dane, the presence of her sister must be a constant hindrance to bis advances; that if Blan- din could provide a companion for the older sister, he would thus have the younger free for his own pursuit.In short, the detective had applied that good old proverb, \u201ctwo is a company, to the present condition of affairs, and in his assumption he had struck the righ chord.\u201cIt will give me great pleasure to introduce you to them,\u201d Blandin formally remarked.\u201cThey are making a call now, but we could join them on their way home.\u201d Duncan eagerly accepted his companion\u2019s offer, and the two young men remained at their post of observation until they saw the Misses Dane emerge from the house and walk briskly down the street in the direction of the village.When the ladies had turned the corner of the street and were lost from sight, Blandin sprang to his feet and betook himself in the same direction, closely followed by his companion.At the door of the post office the two parties confronted each other, and the detective was introduced to the Misses Dane with that absence of formality for which Coverly is notable.The elder Miss Dane vas tall and well- formed ; a comely young woman of four- and-twenty.The younger was the most beautiful creatura the detectlve had ever beheld.Tn spite of the importance of tbe business before him, Duncan could scarcely withdraw his eyes from Ler face, Like her sister, Leslic Dane was tall and shapely; but her face was the face of a goddess.Large, expressive brown eyes beamed beneath the perfect arch of her finely pencilled brows; her nose was the noee of Psyche, and her mouth the mouth of a Venus, with fall red lips.Her hair was brown and wavy, and fell over a low forehead in thick, luxurious curls; aad ber skin, of the rich creamy tint of the perfect brunette, was glowing with the flush of robust, youthful health.The beauty of the girl was indeed bewildering, Upon this beautiful being the detective gazed with an admiration and astonishment 80 open and undisguised that Blan- din became manifestly impatient at the fixity of the other\u2019s glance ; and uneasiiy shifting hlmself from one foot to the other, he hastened to put an end to a scene which was rapidiy becoming em- barragsing to all parties.Duncan, eager to repair his error, now turned his attention to the elder sister, and the four, engaged in eager conversation, proceeded gayly up the street, Leslie Dane and Blandin walking ahead, whilst the detective and the elder sister followed closely in the rear.It was not far from the post office to the Danes\u2019 house, yet during this short walk the detective succeedel in making himself 80 agreeable to the elder lady, that when the four young people parted at the gate he received a cordial invitation to call.Thus, IN the first day at Coverly he had»mada the acquaintance of Miss Leslie Dane, and bad gained admission into her father\u2019s house upon the footing of \u201csummer friendship,\u201d\u2014which, as everyvody knows, is a footing of insidious familiarity, especially in a place like Coverl-.Added to this, the deiective had gleaned an important fact.As he had walked up the street behind het, he had observed that Miss Leslie Dane was dressed in a walking costume made of a dull yellow material.This walking dress was | trimmed with black and yellow braid! [10 BE CONTINUED.] | Children Orv for Pitcher\u2019's Castoria.WASHINGTON LETTER, >.[FROM THE HERALD CORRESPONDENT.| Wasiuxerox, May 3, 18389.The realization that our union of thirteen States has swelled to one of forty-two, and that the next census of ; population, if its fruits justify at all the general expectation, will show the United States to contain 70,000,000 souls, forces home upon us the necessity of making some provision for the subsequent increase in the number of repre- ' pentatives in Congress.It is almost out of the question to consider the wisdom of making the ratio of the constituents to members any larger.Itis so large now that there is danger of the members being out of touch with opinion and seati- ment among the masses of the people at home.What remains is either to extend the size of the hall or reduce the quantity of furniture inside.In the English parliamentary chambers the alisence of desks enables a large gathering of legislators to be put into a comparatively small spaca without much discomfort.A like arrangement hers would relieve the situation a good deal.It would deprive members, however, of their present means of turning their time to double account by sitting through a session and voting on party measures when the roll is called while writing letters to their constituents.Members of Parliament make notes when they choose, but it is on a slip of paper or pad resting on their knees.If each Congressman were given a clerk to do his letter-writing for him outside of the hall he could open his daily mail in his seat if he chose and jot down a word or two on each letter as a suggestion for an answer, which would meet every demand.In view of the alternatives, some such change seems to be inevitable; and not many Congresses hence.A tall, soldierly looking man, wearing a shiny silk hat, which partly concealed his iron gray hair, stepped up to the register at one of our hotels last evening, and in a few seconds the name of J.B.Foraker was inscribed upon the big book.Simultaneously Ohioans seemed to spring out of the ground, and the popular governor was quickly surrounded by an enthusiastic crowd anxious ta shake bands with him.Releasing himself as soon as possible from his admirers Governor Foraker hurried to his room, where he joined his family preparatory to going to supper.But he was not suffered to partake of his meal unmolested, and he had hardly seated himself at table ere a band of music, which had been hastily summoned, struck up \u201cMarching Through Georgia,\u201d in front of the entrance to the hotel.A committee called upon Ohio's Governor, and without waiting for him to procure a hat, escortad him to the lobby of the hotel where an enthusiastic crowd awaited him.\u201cIam glad to see so many Ohio men at the Capital,\u201d said the Governor, \u201c and although I do not know what you want, believe that I am sincers in hoping that you get it.\u201d This created a laugh, 1n the midst of which a jubilant Buckeye shouted, \u2018Come down here for four years, Governor, and we will enlighten you.\u201d The Governor took this remark good- naturedly and continued his speech by thanking thiose who honoured him with the serenade, and assured them that anything he could do tor resilents of his State would be cheerfully done.\u201cIwill remain in Washington tor a day or two,\u201d he concluded, \u201c and 1 don\u2019t want anyone to be backward in commanding my ser~ vices.\u201d Meanwhile my family are waiting for me to finish my supper, and under these circumstances I must bid you good night aud good lack.\u201d Applicants for an opportunity to see the President upon his return from New York were not as numerous as had been \u2018 expected.A good many of the anxious ones had doubtless been celebrating the inaugural centennial, and they felt as if a little rest was an imperative necessily before settling down once more to secure recognition\u2014substantial or otherwise\u2014 from the administration.On the lower floor there was a great crowd of visitors, principally the overflow irom New York.They were on their way to their homes in the West and South and stopped over to feast their eyes and æsthetic tastes on the springtime glories of tha most beautiful city of the world.The great majority were attired in military costumes of many varieties, but there was an abundance of the weil-fed, homespun- clad, bucolic element which makes periodical but rare excursions to the capital, and which stares with undisguised amazement and admiration at the splendors of the East Room.R.COLORADO BODY-SNATCHERS.Frominent Citizens of Denver in the Job.Denver, Col, May 3.\u2014At 3 o\u2019clock this afternoon the detective officers of the city captured the ghôuls who despoiled the grave of Col.Jeremiah A.Greenlaw at Riverside Cemetery some time during the past two or three weeks.The capture includes six men, oue of wbom is a well-known business man of the city, and the entire gang is now lodged in the city jail.! The body of Colonel Greenlaw was also recovered, anl a contract said to have been signed by all six of the men was found upon the person of one ofthem.This document binds them all to secrecy and provides for a division of the spoils in case of the success of their scheine, which is thus shown to be oue of blackmail.The detectives have been upon the track of the grave-robbers for several days, but the utmost secrecy was maintained in order that nome of the gang might escape.The names of the persons arrested are: R.Greenwald, ¥.R.Shinn, Mrs.¥.R.Shinn, W.O.Bacon and J.C.McCoy.The arrests were made by Otticers O'Neill and Gus Noble.Undertaker Rollins and the city detectives went out this afternoon and dug up the body of Col.Green- law.The penalty for such an offence is ten years in the penitentiary.The confession of the parties shows that the sole object of the offence was to secure a ransom.Chicago Has a Messiah.Crcaco, IN, May 3.\u2014Rev.George Jacob Schweinfurth announces that he is Jesus Christ, who appeared on earth 1,889 years ago, and that his mission on this terrestial sphere is to drive Satan -and his imps into their old baunts.The 300 disciples of this alleged divinity call themselves Beekmanites after the woman who gave birth to the sect, and Schwein.furth caught the mantie of Mrs.Beckman when she retired from earth.Schwein- furth is an ordinary-looking man of middle age.\u201cI was Suffering.\u201d Says S.8.Shewfelt, of Kingsley, Man, \u201cfrom weakness and loss of appetits, with a revere headache, and could scarcely walk.My first bottle of Bar- dock Blood Bitters enabled me to walk about the house, and when I had taken the second bottie I found myself entirely cured.: , NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.\u2014TO-\u2014- | Architects, Contractors, & Builders THE E.8.EDDY Manufacturing Company LIMITED.MONTREAL BRANCH : 4:21 st.James Street, Keep constantly .n 8tock all the standard sizes in French and English ; SASH, 14, 14, 1, and 2 in.DOORS MOULD- 1Nus, ARUHITRAVES, BASE BOARDS, ac., &e, Also, all kinds of boxes used by Rubber, Epice, Putent Medicine and Nail Manufacture ers, Druggists, &e.Estimates given for Buildings.TELEPHONE 1619.i Parties desirous of completing their build- ngs for carly spring would do well to give ug a call., d106 ~~» ORDER YOU ix ~~ BLANK BOOKS, LEDGERS, JOURNALS, DAY BOOKS, THE - HERALD - COMPANY No.6 BEAVER HALL HILL.ARMOUR\u2019S Celebrated Canned Meats No Wholesale Grocery stock is now consid.ared complete without a full assortment of Armour's Celebrated Cameed Meals, Comprising Corned Beet, In1lb., 21b., 4 1by, 8 1b, and 14 Ib.Tins.Also Lunch Tongue, Ox Tongue, Chipped Dried Beef, Boneless Pig\u2019s feet and fine English awn.© STOCK HELD BY Caverhi!ll, Hughes & Co, L.Chaput, Fils & Co.Qeorge Childs & Co., D.Hatton & , Hudon, Hebert & Co.Kinloch, Lindsay & Jo.Lockerby Bros., J.A.Mathewson & OO.N.Quintal & Fils, Ransom, Forbes & Oo, Tees, Wilson & Co., Turner, Rose & Co., Ward, Garter & Co.Dufresne & Mongenals.Hudon & Orsali, \u2018Wholesale Trade Supplied by JAMES ALLEN, 6 St.Nicholas Street.Buy the ARMOUR LARD and ARMOUR ST.HAMS and BACON.234 PATENTS Caveatspnd Re-issucs secured Trade-Marks register®d, and all other patent causes in the Patent Uflice and before the Courts promptly and carefuily prosecuted.tion, I make careful examination, and advise as to patentability free of charge.With my offices directly across from the Patent Office, and being in personal attendance there, it is apparent that I have super- jor facilities for making prompt preliminary searches, for the more vigorous \u2018and successful prosecution of applications for paient, and for attending to all business entrusted to my care, in the shortest possible time.FEES MODERATE, and exclusive al- tention given to patent business.Information, advice and special reterences sent on ree | quest.J.R.LITTELL, Solicitor and Attorney in Patent Cartes.Washington, D.\u20ac, (Mention this paper.).Opposite U.8, Patent Office.REFRIGERATORS !

Canada.À grand new stand is being erected, as well as refreshment and retiring rooms for ladies and gentlemen, al of the latest design, the whole tending to add greatly to the comfort of the patrons of the course.A very fine stable, with all modern improvements, has algo been erected for th» accommodation of the horses, and already applications have been received from owners for stalls.The track is in good order, and no expense will be spared to make it perfect in every respect, giving great promise, judging from the excellent programnme of ten races which has been organized for the two days, of being the best meeting ever held in the Province of Quebec.Following is the programme :\u2014 FIRST DAY, JUNE 29.1, Trial purse, $200, of which $50 to second horse.Weight for age, § mile, maiden

and are buffeted by doubt and uncer- ainty.No season of recent years has been so disastrous to the public, as the defeat of Wiseman for the suburban was an event of insignificance, compared with the poor running of Donovan in the 2,000 guineas.The horses were both looked on as rivalling the Bank of England in solidity.There must have been som2- thing wrong with Donovan, and probably the running for the,Derby will shed a lot of light on the 2,000 guineas race.It is a surprising thing that though Enthusiast won the 2,000 guineas, Donovan is still the favorite for the Derby, being backed 2 to 1 against.El-Dorado, the stable companion of Enthusiast, is now second favorite, at odds of 3 tol against him.The Derby will be à more open race than was at first supposed.In spite of yards of newspaper comments and an endless amount of investigation, Donovan\u2019s defeat is still a mystery, He was backed to win at 85 to 20 on him, and was beaten by a horse which Dorovan had beaten a week or so before.The public suspected trickery, and showed their views of the race, when the winner of one of the most famous races in England passed the post, by complete silence.THE AMERICAN PRODIGY\u2014A RACE TALKED OF BETWEEN PROCTER KNOTT AND TERRA COTTA.NAsHvILLE,\u2018 Tenn, May 5.\u2014It is said that the owners of the Chicago Stable late yesterday afternoon increased their bid for Proctor Knott and displayed great anxiety to secure the 3-year-old prodigy.The stable secured an option on the horse at $25,000, but whether that option has expired is not definitely known.During the interview between Johnson, of Hawkins & Jobnson, and Mr.Bryant, the latter bantered the runner for a race with Terra Cotta, distance a mile and a quarter preferred, Proctor Knott and Terra Cotta to carry weight for age, and the race to take place either at the West Side Track or in Louisville within the next few days.Johnson was unable to act upon the challenge, and what will come of it is not known.The Rifle.THE RIGHT HALF OF THE VICS BEAT THE LEFT BY TWO POINTS.In the friendly match between the Right and Left half of the Vics the other evening the result was left in doubt, owing to the absence of Lieut.Desbarats, who was prevented from firing for the right.They required to obtain 59 points to win the match, and a good deal 0° speculation ensued as to whether Lieut.Desbarats would score the desired points.He has fired off, and to the delight of his side succeeded in registering 60 and win.ping the match by 2 points, à very close call.A return will likely be arranged for in the near future.Aquatie.THE O'CONNOR-SEARLE RACE\u2014THE FORMER'S BACKERS TIMID, x xDoN, May b.\u2014People cannot make pares \"O'Connor's backers failed to cover Searle\u2019s money for the match on the

The return match between Le Canadien and Victoria Rifles\u2019 Bowling Clubs was brought off at the former's bowling alley on Saturday afternoon.The first match resulted in a victory at \u201cflat-hand\u201d bowling for the Vics by 304 points.The return match was played by the Frenchmen with their own \u201cfinger- hole\u201d balls and resulted in a sweeping victory for them by the large majority of 641 points, thereby wiping out the 304 gained by the Vics in the first game, and leaving an aggregate majority of 337 points on the two matches for the Frenchmen.The victory gained would seem to indicate that \u201cflat-hand\u201d bowling cannot compete against the style of ball used by the Canadien Club.At the conclusion of the game the visitors were entertained to refreshments, after which a good time all round was spent for an hour or so.Following are the names with the scores :\u2014 CANADIAN CLUB.Point.Average.R.Dupuis.\u2026.B43 181 R.Forget.538 118%

portions of the Mail's preliminary plea be struck out as teing irregular, illegal and incomplete, and that further information be given in other allegations of the defendants.Argument will be heard

extinguished, the damage being slight.A still alarm was sent in at 4.05 p.m.for a fire in a chimney at Mr.J.Watt's, 197 St.Paul street.There was no damage.At 6.55 last evening the western division were called out by an alarm from box 54, for a fire which had broken out in the hay store of Mr.J.Bourdeau at 111 Workman street.There were forty tons of hay stored in the building, which was all destroyed.The blaze was a large one and four streams were needed to extinguish it.The men were called upon to put out a fire which had caught in a private house néxt door, which originated from sparks from the hay store.It was put out by a babcock charge.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 LOOK OUT FOR THE BEAR.A Bruin Escapes and Sergeant Charbon.nean is Not Allowed to Shoot Him.Look out for the bear was the warning that created a scattering amongst pedestrians on Notre Dame street about eight o\u2019clock last evening.At this hour the street is crowded with promenaders, especially on a Sunday evening, and when these cast their eyes on a full-grown bruin promenading up the street dragging a chain after him, it did not take long to clear the sidewalks.Brain however, was harmless enough until a gentleman caught him by the chain and attempted to lead him back to where he helonged.This fact coupled with the excitement on the street enraged the bear and he was commencing to lock ugly when Ser- geant Charbonneau arrived with a posse of four men.He made observations, posted back to the Station and telephoned police headquarters for authority to shoot the bear.His desire for gore, however, was not gratified, for while he was obtaining the necessary authority to end bruiun\u2019s existence its owner, Mr.Smith, put in an appearance and led the animal back to its captivity.\u2018The bear was confined in a yard, and by some means or other broke its chain, hence the fright which it gave people on Notre Dame street last night.AMUSEMENTS.Academy of Musie.ANNIE PIXLEY TO-NIGHT.Miss Annie

the old man was in the act of getting off one of the cars of a train in motion, when he slipped and one of the wheels ran over his left foot, crushing it off above the { ankle joint.Before Le was taken to the .Hospital in the ambulance it was found | neceesary to administer a dose of 3} ounces of brandy.; When taken tothe Hospital and examined by the doctors it wag decided by them to amputate

Saturday afternoon for Cote St.Luc had on board about eighty men, the majority of whom carried rifles.The occasion was the opening of the new ranges by the Montreal Rifle Association, who had, with sister associations, subscribed enough to get the targets put into position.They Lad five targets up, all of which were utilized.Three more are expected to be up by Baturday, and shortly after the full compliment, ten, will be in line.After a ride of about twenty minutes the train drew up and landed the men right on the 600 yards range, much to the relief of those who anticipated a good walk.The position of the ranges gave universal satisfaction, and will, no doubt, become a favourite resort on Saturday afternoons, not only for its shooting facilities but also as a picturesque locality, to which a pleasant and profitable ramble can be had within easy access of the city.\u2018The boys, after surveying the environs, get about getting their rifles into condition for work.The principal attraction was, of course, the special competition under the auspices ofthe Parent Association, for which there were close on fifty competitors.There were also several members of the M G.À., Royal Bcots, Sixth Fusiliers, P.W.R., and twenty-five of the Vics out for practice.Naturally, the scores were not up to the men\u2019s aver- age.This can be accounted for by the fact that it is now two years since the mot of them fired in the open and also that they were unacustomed to the windage, etc., as will be known from the fact that they had to allow fully four feet on Saturday.There was also a strong left wind blowing which with the sun in their eyes, were obstacles which many of the best men were not able to overcome.Another serious matter for many is the early hour at which the train started, viz 1.30.This comes very hard on those who cannot leave their respective places of business until one o\u2019clock and they claim that they should be taken into consideration in the arrangements which are to be made to regulate traffic to and from the city in the future.They say that if the train was to leave at 2 o\u2019clock sharp, they would have time togo home and get dinner and then go out and enter into the spirit of competition with some heart.These suggestions will no doubt receive all due attention from the proper authorities.There were a goodly number of officers of the different corps out to encourage their men.The formal opening of the ranges took place immediately after arriving on the grounds, when Lieut.Col.Houghton, D.A.G., fired the first shot at 200 yards.The popular D.A.G.scored a bull's eya for which he was loudly cheered.The work then commenced in earnest, Major Radiger of the Vics, acting as range officer to the satisfaction of all concerned.The conditions were five shots each at 200, 500 and 600 yards.The following were the six highest BCOTES : .Pts.Staff-Sergt.Wynne, Royal S8cots.60 Sergt Marks, Sixth Fusiliers Pte.Cooke, Vi Sergt.Bell, M.G Capt.Busteed.Staff-Serzt.Wynne carried off the N, R.A.medal, Sergt.Marks the D.R.A.medal, Pte.Cooke the P.Q.R.À.badge, Sergt.Bell the O.R.A.Badge, and Pte.Pope the first silver ladle.Taking everything into consideration the shooting men appreciated the sport they enjoyed on Saturday afternoon and if wind and weather be favorable the special to Cote St.Luc on Saturday afternoon will be well patronized.SIGNOR DE CHIARRI.The famous oboist, De Chiarri, will come to Montreal with Gilmore\u2019s Band on 11th June, as well as Signorina De Vere, the great soprano; Miss
