THE MoKINLEY TARIFF BILL.* Butterworth a Little Mixed.WasgINGTon, May 13\u2014The House met at eleven o\u2019clock, and soon went into committee of the whole on the tariff bill Mr, Butterworth took the floor, and he was given unlimited time.He criticized the tariff biil on the ground that it showed favoritism.He said that the committee had done the best it could in framing the bill, but it was not always safe to rely altogether upon the testie mony of the beneficiaries under a law.(Applause on Democratic side.) Of course he respected the wisdom of the commit~ tee, but why was Paul favored and Peter turned down?Why increase the profits of certain classes ?He could name capitalists whose profits had exceeded those of all the agriculturists in any State of theUnion.He was not, he said, distarbed by the applause on the other side.He was exceedingly grateful that they began to realize in any sense that our countrymen deserved protection, If when we had protected equally and lifted up all our industries and the time should then come when we could not hold our own\u2014being the most intelligent, the freest and ablest people on earth\u2014then we had better retire from the field.Mr.Butterworth then proceeded to expound his views touching reciprocity with Canada He said that we were endeavoring to cultivate relations withy 50,000,000 people to the southe ward, and yet were afraid of Canada.Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses Grant were not suspected of lack of patriotism, yet they favored reciprocity.There were some things in the bill he did not like.He had known of an industry that had been able to make $600,000 in divie dends on a capital of $1,250,000, Why, the country would in such cases better afford to keep these men in the Fifth Avenue Hotel, pay their board and expenses and set them up in the banking business.He favored proper protection, but these held the world in their grip.When he said that he did not favor that kind of protection he was told, \u201cYou are not sound on the tarifl.\u201d The time has come when some little concern should be given to American homes and American firesides.A gmat body of em\u2014~ loyees in this country was foreign.me in the great factories in the east were known on the rolls by numbers because of unfamiliarity with their names.He did not believe it was wise or prudent to make a sweeping reduction in sugar to be supplanted by a bounty.In conclusion he said that the gentlemen were very much mistaken if they thought that the greatest desire of his heart was not to pass the bill reflecting in the highest degree a protective system.What he wanted to avoid were such features as he had pointed out in this bill.There was such a thing as paying too much for an industry.Such was the case with tin plate.The duty would be a tax on every farmer's patch, on every can of goods.That tax would amount to $50,000,000 before the manufacture of tin plate would bear a divi- derd.He was anxious that his party should not take a false step.He did not expect to participate in the deliberations of the House hereafter.He was qnite as ready to go out as Democrat triends were anxious to get rid of him when they gerrymandered him out.He was already out before they took action.ee A SMALL SOULED BUSINESS.Oppression of the Chinese Stranger.SAN Francisco, Cal, May 13.\u2014The first arrest was made to-day under the new city ordinance requiring the removal of all the Chinese to a district on the outskirts of the city.The person

corpus, setting forth that the prisoner was a subject of the Emperor of China.The writ was granted and the prisoner was released on bail.Argument will be heard in the United States Circuit Court, July th.\u2014\u2014\u2014 LABOR\u2019S BATTLES.THE EIGHT HOURS CONCEDED, Derrorr, May 13.\u2014The carpenters strike in this city continues.There are still 2,500 men out, and building operations are.confined to the work made possible by the presence of a few non-union carpenters and by the concessions of the smaller contractors.À disposition has been manifested by members of the Builders\u2019 Exchange to come to terms with the men.They are willing to concede the eight-hour day and the scale demanded by the men, providing they can rid themselves of objectionable stewards

MEETING of the Canadian Pacific Directors, at 12 noon.GENERAL MIDDLETON'S CASE.There is only one explanation of General Middleton\u2019s having withheld his resignation after the report of the committee of enquiry had been made known.It must be that he desired to remain to receive the censure of the House of Commons if that body chose to pass it, instead of running away before it was given the opportunity, as Rykert did.The House has now dealt with the subject and there remains nothing for General Middleton to do but to pay Brymner for his furs, and resign his position.Under ordinary circumstances regret would be felt for an officer of many years\u2019 service who had committed an error of judgment which his high position rendered it necessary should be gravely dealt with, but in General Middleton\u2019s case there is not this sympathy, The Northwest campaign which he conducted was in part à burlesque and in part an unnecessary tragedy, but he bore himself as if he had exhibited the genius of Wellington.He bad a force of several thousand men under his command, and at no time, we believe, was he opposed by a hundred halfbreeds, but he accepted a knighthood and a gift of $20,000 from the public treasury, as if it bad been merely his just due.He came back to Ottawa a man laughed at for his pretensions and disliked for his pomposity.But it was the heartlessness of his action towards Brymner that has deprived him of the sympathy he otherwise might have had.Brymner was a poor halfbreed trader, whose whole possessions consisted of the batch of furs of which he was plundered by Middleton and others.For five years General Middleton, knowing exactly the result of his confiscation, has allowed this man Brymner to plead in vain for compensation or payment.Out of the undeserved and unexpected $20,000given him by Sir John Macdonald he might at least have repaid the man he had ruined without missing the sum, but he seemed to care little whether Brymner lived or starved, and took no steps to repair the ipjury that he had done him until the House of Commons and public indignation compelled him to make admission .ot wrongdoing and offers of reparation.Even now we understand he proposes to pay only for that portion of the furs which he himself ordered to be put up, and he seems to think no responsibility attaches to him for the loss inflicted on Brymner by his furs being taken from him, and afterwards stolen by others than General Middleton.It is quite clear that nothing can be expected from the self-promptings of General Middleton, and therefore the Government must be held responsible for the proper action in the matter.VERY SENSITIVE.OTTAWA CITIZEN: In the opinion of the Montreal HERALD the Government is incapable of doing anythingthat itis right.For many years there has been a demand for a Dominion Bureau of Statistics ; and now that the Government has undertaken the establishing of one, our contemporary, while admitting its usefulness, \u201cif properly equipped and efficiently managed,\u201d hints that it will be made \u201ca mere political annex of To¥yism.\u201d The HERALD should wait for facts to justify its condemnation.But it acts on the principle of hanging first and trial afterwards.The Citizen is not far astray.Judged by their past record and the record of the present session, the Government does seem \u201cincapable of doing anything that it is right,\u201d even if we assume that it knows the difference between right and wrong.It is true there has been a demand for a Dominion Bureau of Statistics; and it is true that the Government has dangled such a measure before the eyes of the workingmen for several sessions since the Labor Commission was appointed.Now if the demand has been à pressing one and if the organization of such a bureau is a proper recoguition of that demand, what sense is there in the dilly-dallying with it from session to gession; and why was the bill introduced at 80 late a period in the present session?AS to the bureau being made a \u201c political annex of Toryism,\u201d we do not need to wait for facts to justify such an opinion\u2014the tacts of the past are sufficient for that purpose.The Interco- Ionial Railway is operated as an * annex of Toryism.\u201d So are railway subsidies, grants to public works, administration of Northwest Lands, revision of the electoral lists, &e.The whole scope of Government legislation and administration has been operated with a single eye to the maintenance in power of the Tory party ; the interests of the public at large are held of secondary importance, And it is safe to assume that this course will be pursued to theend of the chapter.1 IMMIGRATION.The Manitoba and Northwest members have succeeded in impressing upoa the Government the necessity of taking more active steps to secure the rapid settlement of that section of the D)- minion.Hence, we find in the supplementary estimates an additional vote for immigration purposes of $150,000.The matter came up for consideration in the House of Commons on Monday Light, and as might be expected the past record of the Government's immigration policy waa pretty thoroughly aired.According to Sir John Macdonald's explanations the sum mentioned is to be devoted to promoting the immigration of farmers and farm laborers to Manitoba, the Territories and British Colam- bia, under an assisted passages arrangement, but no money is to be paid until the immigrants have arrived and are settled in the Northwest.The Premier also stated that no portion of it was to be devoted to paying officials or the many wasteful services on which immigration money was wasted in the past, which, as Mr.Mills showed, farnished an illustration on a large scale of the extraordinary expenditure incurred in caring for Gynx's baby.Beyond this the Premier could give no details as to the proposed expenditure, so that the country will be obliged to take this new departure in the immigration policy of the Government largely on trust; and, remembering their past record in this respect, it nesd not be matter of surprise if the people should be somewhat faithless and unbelieving until the merits of this new departure are proved by positive results.It must be said, however, judging from the tone of the discussion, that the Government appear to be anxious to retrieve the consequences of past blunders, and this was evinced by the readiness with which they, and particularly the Premier, responded, as far as they had knowledge, to enquiries of the Opposition for fuller information on various points, and the frankness with which Sir John Macdonald acknowledged the value of suggestions made by Mr.Patterson, of Brant, Sir Richard Cartwright, Mr.Watson, Mr.Trow and others, and promised them full consideration.The expenditure of the $150,000, it will be noted, is to be devoted wholly to procuring settlers for Manitoba and the West.In answer to the enquiry why the older Provinces were left out in the cold in this new departure, Sir John explained that the Government could not afford to buck against organized labor, which objected to competitive labor of the character brought in under the former assisted passages ar- rangement\u2014a class of immigrants, many of whom had no trade and who consequently glatted the ordinary labor markets of the cities and towns.To this class of immigration the Knights of Labour and the working classes generally were perfectly right in object~ ing, because they were useless as farm labourers ; they preferred to hang around the cities and towns, and in the winter months they swelled the ranks of the unemployed, recruited the criminal classes, and in numerous instances proved heavy burdens on the charitable institutions and upon the whole community.But orgauizad labor did not and does not object to the immigration of bona fide farmers and farm labourers, for many of whom there 1s room in all the Provinces to take up wild lauds and settle upon farms left vacant by those who have emigrated to the Western States or to our own North west.It is, therefore, hardly fair that the Eastern Provinces, which have hitherto borne the chief bar- den of the development of the Northwest and furnished a very large proportion of the settlers of that country, should be ?excluded from participation in this new arrangement.If, by the exercise of care and prudence, the Government can secure the immigration of bona fide farmers and farm labourers for the Northwest, we see nothing to prevent them doing the same for the eastern provinces.In this connection Mr.Patterson, of Brant, suggested that it would be à wise policy to promote immigration from Ontario and the other provinces of farmers who for various reasons were desirous of changing their location, and supplying their places by ithmigrants of a similar class from Great Britain, for the reason that people who had grown up in Canada and wera acquainted with the peculiarities of Canadian farm life, were undoubtedly better fitted to take hold of and develop our Northwest than people who were entire strangers to our country.For the Same reason immigrants from Europe would all the sooner feel at home, and be enabled to settle down in fairly comfortable circumstances, if they could be induced\u2014and no doubt they could be\u2014 to settle on the vacant farms of those who had emigrated to the Northwest.Sir John Macdonald said he was of the same opinion, and while he did not promise that such a policy would be adopted, he said the suggestion was well worthy of consideration, and would have the attention of the Government.Referring to the success which is ate tending the immigration policy of the Manitoba Government, Sir Richard Cartwright and Mr.Watson, of Marquette, suggested that it might be a wise policy for the Dominion Government to place the administration of the money, so far as that Province was concerned, in the bands of the Provincial Government.Their immigration policy is now in successful working order, and they would simply have to carry on the work on a larger scale.This seems to be a com- mon-gense view of the matter and one which the Government should consider.Reference was also made during the debate to the responsibilities of railways in the matter of immigration, particularly those railway companies which had received large land subsidies.When these subsidies were granted it is well known that the view was atrongly urged upon Parliament that it would be to the interest of thesa companies to bring in immigrants to settle their lands, that they would in fact prove valuable immigration agents and in a short time relieve the Governmaut of the burden and responsibility of dealing with this question except in a general way.It need hardly be said that in this matter the country has met with wholesale disappointment.With one or two exceptions the railway companies are doing litle or nothing to promote immigration, while it is well known that some of them are holding their lands at speculative prices waiting till the Government lands are settled, so that their holdings may be boomed.We suppose large corporations take natorally to a policy of this kind, but it is quite evident that such a policy is retarding the settlement of Manitoba and the Northwest, and so is the policy of locking up large tracts in the hands of ranching companies.The ranching companies can be reached by the Government and compelled to remove obstacles they are placing in the way of settlers, but the railway companies cannot be so reached.They are under no obligations except their own interests to settle immigrants upon their lands, and unless the country can in some way bring influences to bear which will make it thetr interest to do 80, things may be expected to go on as they are.The Government can now see the mistake they made in not imposing definite immigration responsibilities upon the subsidized railway companies.As to the Government's new departure, it is to be hoped it will be a very much greater success than their policy has been in the past.- A GANG OF THEM.The Montreal HERALD, also a Liberal journal, is also led to make a sneering reference to the care tor Protestant interests of \u2018 those eminent Protestants, Sir John Thompson and Sir Hecter Langevin.\u201d All of which reads like very small business for Liberals to indulge in.Bless your heart, we weren't sneering, If you call that sneering, you should take notice when we really do lay ourselves out for a good Protestant sneer, All TE HERALD desired to call attention to was the blatant blatherskite talked by a gang of Tory boodlers in Ontario; men whose little souls have as much care either for Catholicism or Protestantism as a peacock has for the rudiments of arithmetic, but who, living on the drippings of the Dominion treasury, and hungering to lay hold of that in Ontario, conceive that thsy can, by their mendacity, direct and inferential, persuade silly people that Mr.Mowat\u2019s Protestantism is open to suspicion.As if they knew anything about it or cared anything about it.It was to these parasites of any treasury they can reach, and to the press which is encouraging them, that ThE HeraLD made its remark, snd we repeat that they who find fault with the Protestantism of Mr.Mowat and prefer that of Sir John Thompson and Sir Hector Langevin are knaves whom it were gross flattery to call howling hypocrites.Do we make our meaning clear 2 \u2014\u2014\u2014 HANGING AND LYNCHING IN THE STATES.Bome statisticians in the United States have been examining the figures showing executions, lynchings, remissions of punishment, &c., for acts of homicide.During the last six years there have been in the United States 12,858 murders, 578 legal executions, and 951 lynchings.Thus about one case in 22 was punished by the extreme sentence of the law, and in about one case in 13 Judge Lynch intervened, While in 11,329 cases the culprits were not executed in either way.These figures have given rise to some discussion and to a variety of conflicting theories.Bome people blame the law, others the lawyers, and others still the juries.There is no doubt that the disinclination to: find a man guilty, if such finding is to result in his execution, is responsible for a great many improper verdicts\u2014particularly go in those localities where the abolition of hanging has been preached.The conclusion which many arrive at is that the death penalty should be abolished, but against this is the opinion of judges and others who hold that the fear of the gallows is a great preventive of murder.It is none, perhaps, where a man acts in a passion; but if the fear of hanging were removed it is probable that many a burglary and robbery would be accompanied by murder.The startling number of lynchings will surprise Canadians, to whom news of such a thing in Canada never comes, but we take it that a vast majority of these cases occur in the South and semi-civilized parts of the West, and particularly where the coloured population is found: In some parts of the United States it seems impossible to persuade men that killing \u201conly a nigger\u201d is just as bad as killing only a white man.They don't think 80, and therefore if there is any danger of a coloured criminal escaping the gallows by defect of the law a portion of the white people assume the responsibility of seeing that he dies.Occasionally frightful acts of injustice are done in this way.Only a few days ago a coloured lad in South Carolina was charged with outraging a white girl.He was tried and sentenced to be hanged.But before the date fixed for the execution arrived doubts as to his gailt arose and affidavits from members of her own family revealed the fact that she had been ruined by white men, who had conspired with her to fix the guilt on \u201cthe nigger.\u201d The.Governor granted a respite, which so enraged the mob that they entered the jail.and shot the colored lad, and it is found almost impossible to bring any of the parties to justice, although many of them are well known.This seems to be one of those cases in which the bullets of Judge Lynch should be followed by the rove of some other judicial person.WHAT OTHERS SAY.BURNING LUNATICS.The terrible disaster at Longue Pointe, Canada, followed by a similar though less fatal one at the Chenango County, New York, poor-house, emphasizes the necessity of caring for the insane in fire proof buildings and surrounding them with every precaution against danger.The destruction of the Canadian asylum was due wholly to negligence, and the Government is responsible for it.It was little less than criminal to herd two thousand insane patients in one building without proper means of escape in times of danger and with no access to those in the upper rooms, as was shown after the fire had broken out.The danger is heightened because the patients are not able to take care of themselves.The sufferings of these poor creatures, huddled tozether and terrified beyond description, some of them turned into shrieking maniacs by the sight of fire, and others fascinated by it and resisting help, should be a terrible lesson to those in authority over them.\u2014 Chicago Tribune, DIED.SCOTT\u2014At Oshawa,

THE MONTREAL HERALD AND DAILY COMMERCIAL GAZETTE WEDNESDAY M FOUR NC JONINION PARLIAMENT, sixth Parliament-Fourth Session.[SPECIAL TO THE HERALD.} Orrawa, May 13.Selkirk, moved the suspen- Mr rules to allow the introduc- bill to extend the charter of the Railway five years from the lynext.Mr.Hesson made an on of a similar character.Sev- pl members protested against the pro- me arron brought up, as a question of privilege, an article in Ze Canadien making certain charges against the member for Quebec West in connection yith certain contracts at Quebec.He paid the letters quoted indicated that the Public Works Department had acted in collusion with the member in question respecting the disposal of the contracts referred to.He considered an explanation was due from the Minister of Pablic Works.Sir Hector Langevin said he new nothing whatever about the mat- sion tion of 8 Hudson Bay er.Pom.Wilfred Laurier referred to cer- {ain aspersions made upon Liberals in the same connection, and, on behalf of the Liberal party, repudiated them en- frely.If it Were not so late in the session he Would move for an investigation.Hon.E.Blake considered the documents made public had created a bad impres- gion.The Minister of Public Work should have made some enquiry into the matters alleged in the letters, and in his own interest should institute such enquiry yet.Sir Hector Langevin said he had already given instractions to make a thorough enquiry in ihe department.r then dropped.The = Veish wanted to know if the Government were going to act upon the report of the Engineer in regard to certain works at New London harbor, which would cost $3,500.He held the work very important.Sir John said the Government did not intend to make any ropriation this session.dir Richard Cartwright said the Government were incurring a serious responsibility in refusing to make absolutely necessary repairs to the wharf in question.Sir John Macdonald, in appropriate terms, called attention to the death of Mr.Hudspeth, North Victoria, and eulogized his memory.Hon.E, Blake, in the absence of Mr.Laurier, concurred heartily in the Premier's eulogistic remarks.After some remarks by Mr.Barron in a similar strain the matter dropped.; ass On the resolution granting subsidies in land to certain railway companies in Manitoba and the Northwest, Mr.Watson moved in amendment that provision should be made fixing an upset prica for such lands to actual settlers.He moved a number of amendments, the object of which is to prevent railway companies holding lands at speculation prices.The amendment was lost by 48 to 83.A number of bills passed their third reading and others were advanced a stage.Contrary to expectations, Hon.Mr.Chapleau moved the second reading of the bill to establish a bureau of statistics, though Mr.Mills and Sir Richard Cartwright pointed out that the Department of Agriculture already had power to organize such a bureau without additional legislation.In reply, Mr.Chap- leau said he wanted to give it importance, because this has been done in other countries.Dr.Wilson stated that some of the labor organizations preferred that the bill should be held over this session, as they considered it required important amendments, and if the bill was pressed he would have to press the amendments.Speeches were made by Messrs.Lepine, Campbell, Curran, McKay and Amvot, and several amendments were made, and the bill read a second and third time, AFTER RECESS.The act respecting certain saving: banks fn the Province of Quebec wa: read a second time and passed through committee of the whole.The railway subsidies resolutions were then taken up.Sir Johnsaid there were applications for over forty millions of subsidies.The estimates coctained upwards of three millions of dollars, but the new grants were only two millions ; the balance was revoted, When the sub- 8idy for the Ottawa, New York & Wad- dington Railway came up Mr, Blake called attention to former reprehensible transactions in connection with this enterprise, and the intimate relations of Dr, Hickey, member for Dundas, thereto.He considered the hon.members position Indefensible.Dr.Hickey made a long, rambling and abusive reply, boldly Justifying his conduct in the matter and declaring he was quite ready to rapeat the transaction.As a consequence he got roasted.Mr.McMullen said those transactions were the natural outcome of the policy inaugurated by the Government in regard to railway subsidies and timber limits, Hon.P.Mitchell called attention to the Nine miles of road connected with the orthern and Western in New Brunswick which is not being operated.He Wanted to know if anything had been dope to rectify the wrong.He protested against this whole system of railway Subsidies.It was demoralizing to the constituencies and to the members.He had Never been able to get common justice for his county.His representations have invariably been treated with Deglect and he folt it was useless to do More than protest.The Minister of Railways did not answer Mr, Mitchell's enquiry, p EE regard to the Montreal & Sorel allway, for which $40,000 were asked, I.Blake pointed out that this was a ounpleted railway and had already been aid te Parliament asking and receiving dois o Keep it running in order, When is Mog 2ort of thing to stop?Sir John mue onald said he would see that the VS Was expended under the super- Sin of the Government engineer.Hon, don ater Was asgared this had besn ot efore and yet this road was now Weigh OILing order.Sir Richard Carte og said à transaction of this kind the counter Up dust fo other sections of Blake pointed out Ply to Sir John Mr.Toad when this System of g Le 1 d in?Sr Richard Cartwright wanted to know repairing roads was to he Governments reply t> fon d.Mr.Blake ob- to ay be gountry being called upon ou per mile to \u20ac the Hand Pacific Junction rond Lo bas for that eo tmer branch of the C, p, R., The Je meaning of the subgiqy mittes lations passed through ph Were cq lelr second readin Toe sin at 12.35 Band su \"an Pplementary resolutions were Children Crv for then taken up and passed and the House went into committes of supply.The bill amending the Indian act was then taken up.[The House was still sitting at tims of our last despatck.] SESSIONAL NOTES.(SPECIAL TO THE HERALD.) PROROGATION PROPHECIES.Orrawa, May 13.\u2014The talk in parliamentary circles about prorogation is conflicting.Some say that it will not be reached till the middle of next week, while others, in a position to be well informed, think it will be reached by Saturday.As tothe Northwest act Sir John is reported to have said that it will be pushed through this session.This, however, is regarded as a blind to cover the retreat.This much is clear : it has not been heard of since the middle of last week.RYKERT\u2019S RE-ELECTION, A Mr.Chaplin, of St, Catharines, was here yesterday to interview the Government respecting their feelings towards Rykert in the Lincoln election.Just what the Government said to Chaplin is not definitely known, but it ig pretty well understood that they are not an\u201d xious tosee him back in the House again.The ucanimous adoption of the report of the Privileges and Elections Com mit- tee in his case will have to be taken ay expressing the views of the Goveroment and their supporters.Rykert will hardly fail to draw the inevitable inference from that fact.PARLIAMENTARY PUGELISM, It use to be a standing joke that Mr.Jones, of Halifax, never spoke in the House without his colleague, Mr.Kenay, being sure to follow him.Now that these gentlemen have gone, the members for Marquette and Selkirk, Man., fill the bill, It has been noted this session that Mr.Watson, of Marquette\u2014who is a Liberal and always speaks well\u2014never makes a speech without being followed by Mr.Daly, of Selkirk, who at times speaks very vehemently without saying anything in particular, except that he is for the Government first, last and all the time.His speeches are of the rattle order, and he gets badly handled occasionally, but he always manages to come to time with a pleasant smile when Mr.Watson speaks, apparently oblivious of the fact that he had been \u201cknocked out\u201d in the previous \u201cround.\u201d GENERAL MIDDLETON'S RESIGNATION.Orrawa, May 13\u2014It is reported this morning that General Middleton\u2019s resignation is in the hands of the Government and will, of course, be accepted.After yesterday's proceedings in the House of Commons it is felt that no other course is open to him.THE QUEBEC TROUBLES, In regard to Le Canadien\u2019s charges against the member for Quebec West, Hon.Wilfrid Laurier said he had been asked to bring the matter up in the House some time ago, but declined because the parties making the application refused to accept the responsibility of filling in certain blanks with the names of the parties referred to in the correspondence.SEIZURE OF LOTTERY TICKETS.The Minister of Customs has caused the seizure in this city of Louisiana lottery tickets to the value of five hundred dollars.THE TWENTY-ONE ENOT MAIL.The Finance Minister to-night brought down the correspondence with the Ander- sons respecting the surrender of the fast Atlantic mail contract.It reveals the fact, already stated, that the Andersons surrendered the contract because the C.P.R.had withdrawn its interest.The reason why the C.P.R.withdrew was because the Government refused to give some privileges over the LCR.from St.John to Halifax, as they agreed to give them over the proposed Harvey-Salisbury branch to Moncton and thence to Halifax.In other words, the withdrawal of the C.P.R.from the contract was due to a breach of faith on the part of the Government respecting running powers over the Intercolonial.NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.Atlas of the City of Montreal.REVISED OR SECOND EDITION.# The revised originals, corrected to date (new buildings, recent sub-divisions having been added with altered homologated street lines and street numbering), will be open for inspection at offices of CHARLES E, GOAD, Civil Engineer, Temple Building (Rooms 107-110) 185 St.James street, between the hours of 10 a.m.and 5 p.m,, from \u2018WEDNESDAY, May 7th, to WEDNESDAY, May 14th, after which date the necessary work of lithographing will commence.The faver is requested of personal inspection and verification of properties py those interested to ensure the greatest possible accuracy.In this edition owners names will not be added unless verified by actual! owners and subscribers, d 105 TADOUSAC.FOR SALE or TO LET, TADOUSAC HOTEL.(FURNISHED.)

made its appearance on my face.A physician said teething was the cause: he prescribed, but the sores spread to my ears and head.Another M.D.called it \u201cKing's Evil,\u201d and prescribed gunpowder, brimstone, and lard mixed into a salve, Another prescribed borax water and flour; another, line seed poultices.None of them did me any good at all, but made me worse The disease, spread to my arms and legs, till I was laid up entirely, and from continually sitting on the floor on & pillow, my limbs contracted 80 that Ilost all control of them.My mother would hare to lift me out and into bed.I could not get my clothes on at all, and had to wear a sort of dressing-gown.My hair had all matted down or fallen off, and my head, face, and esrs were one scab, and I had to have atowel on my head all the time in the summer to keep the flies off.My parents consulted a prominent physican and surgeon\u2019 here in Chicago (the other physicians before mentioned were of Dundas and Hamilton, | Canada).He said he could do nothing for me.He wanted to cat the sinews of my legs 80 that I could walk; but I would not let him, for if I did get better I would have no control of them.\u2018When I first applied the CUTICURA REMEDIES in January, 1879, I was all raw and bleeding, from scratching myself, but I went asleep almost immediately, something I had not done for years, the effect was so soothing.The first morning after using them my.flesh (I had no skin, only on the end of my nose) was a pink color.Next day it was Xind of white, and I could place my hands on the sores without it being painful.In about two weeks I could stand straight, but not walk, I was s0 weak; but my sores were nearly well.I was cured in about six to eight weeks, and to the date (ie.from January, 1879, to January, 1887) I have not been sick in any way, or have had the least sign of the disease reappearing on me.My limbs are straight, supple, and strong, and my skin is finer, softer, and not so liable to get chapped

me.About the lst of April last I noticed some red pimples like coming out all over my body, but thought nothing of it until some time later on, when it began to looklike spots of mortar spotted on, and which came off in layers, accompanied with itching.I would scratch every night until I was raw, then the next i night the scales, being formed meanwhile, were scratched off again.In vain did I consult all the doctors in the country, but without aid, After giving up all hopes of recovery, I happened to see an advertisement in the newspaper abouty your CUTICURA REMEDIES, and purchased them from my druggist, and obtained almost immediate relief.I began to notice that the scaly eruptions gradually dropped off and disappeared one by one, and have been fully cured.I had the disease thirteen months before I began taking the CUTICURA REMEDIES, and in four or five weeks was entirely cured.My disease was eczema and psoriasis.I recommend the CuTICURA REMEDIES to all in my vicinity, and I know

course of con- sfruction an elevated tank which will hold 80,000 gallons of water, by which means the main building can be flooded in a few minates.A large quantity of hose is being purchased, and

William Harrison Bothwell, \u2018alias Wm.Russell, on a charge of bigamy.The charge was made by the father of the second wife, named John Bean, of St.Johns, P.Q.The facts of the affair are that four years ago the accused was married to a prepossessing young woman, of Philadelphia, named Emma Orth, The young woman is now the mother of a nice bright bov of three years.In the summer of 1889 the bigamist, Harrison, cams to this city and then proceeded to St.Johns, P.Q., where he joined the Infantry school as a private.He then made the acquaintance of a young woman of 22 summers, known as Elsie Bean.A short time after making the acquaintance of the young woman the prisoner Harrison seduced and subsequently married her at Champlain, in the State of New York.À couple of weeks age Harrison and his second wife came to Montreal ana rented a house on Argyle Avenue, and on the first of May last a child was born.The bigamist had secvred a position as bookkeeper in Mr.O\u2019Rourke\u2019s grocery store on St.Catherine street, and when arrested yesterday afternoon at his office was just getting ready to proceed to the bank to make a depcsit for the firm.The accused was at once taken to the Central station.At three o\u2019clock Harrison appeared before Hig Honor Judge Dugas, pleaded guilty, and was at once sentenced to four years in the paniten- tiary.At five o'clock the counvict was taken to his future home at St.Vincent de Paul.His second wife was taken charge of by her father, and proceeded to her home at St.Johns, accompanied by her child.\u2014\u2014- WOMAN'S HOME INFLUENCE, As Described by a Catholic Priest.The third of a series of lectures by the Rev.J.A.McCallen, under the auspices of the St.Patrick's T.A.and B.Society inthe St.Patrick\u2019s Hall, on Alexander stredt, last evening, was very largely attended.The subject was \u2018 Woman's Home Influence.\u201d Mr.M.Sharkey, second vice-president of the society, presided.Previous to the lecture Miss Mary Jensen gave several well-executed selec tions on the plano, which were warmly received.The rev.lecturer was then Introduced, and began his lecture by comparing woman in the pagan times to the Christian woman, restored to her rights and privileges, man\u2019s companion, helpmate, guardian angel and queen of the Christian household.The home of Naz- ereth was the model of the Christian home, and Mary, the mother of Christ, was the most perfect type of womanhood.Sanctity before marriage was the pledge of God\u2019s blessing on the future home, and its greatest obstacle was courtship, as now practisad.The Catholic Church is, and always has been, the protector and defender of this sanctity, upholding the unity and iindissolabilty of the marriage tie against modern divorce.And by the lessons of mutual love and respect she teaches parents and of obedience which she implants in the minds of children, the mother, more than the father, was given the care of moulding the voung heart to love and practice virtue.To wife, daughter or sister is given the mission of exerting the gentle influence of their sex over the stern qualities of husband, son or brother.Moulding of children\u2019s characters must begin early.Little defects should not be allowed to develop.The ill-tempered, self-willed, slothful, dishonest, gloomy or dishonest child would, under the firm but gentle rule of the virtuous, painstaking mother, be changed into a meek, obedient, industrious, cheerful son or daughter, who would console, honor and bless the old age of such a teacher.The Christian home should be made attractive.\u201cHome Sweet Home\u201d should not be the song of the lips, but the sincere expression of the feelings of the husband, son, or brother as they cross the threshold on their return from work.The lecture was interspersed with anecdotes relative to the influence .of woman, and the Rev.Father was awarded a most enthusiastic vote of thanks, which was proposed by Mr.Ph.de Gruchy, seconded by Mr.P.Doyle.During the evening a choir of young ladies gave several well rendered vocal selections, amongst which was \u201cHome, Sweet Home,\u201d amongst those who participated being the Misses Denman, Mcbafirey, Menzies, Carroll, McAndrew, and Madden.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 A Seasonable Hint,

morning.It appears that for some time past the missing man showed signs of insanity and his aged mother was afraid of his committing suicide.Ihe young man was, however, arrested by Constable Vezina on Wolfe street.When arrested he stated that he was going for a walk on the river front.He was very poorly clad, having on only his shirt and pants, and showed symptoms of insanity in all his actions.He appeared yesterday before His Honor the Recorder, who committed him to jail for eight days, pending the result of a medical examination.His mother said yesterday that he had been the victim of a severe attack of la grippe, and that ever since his mind had been affected.Recorders Court.Thirty-four names were on the Recorder\u2019s list yesterday.Four middle- aged women were fined $3 or 10 days

Gathering of Aldermen and Civic Officials atthe Hall, Mayor Grenier entertained the aldermen, civic officials and members of the press at dinner last evening.His Worship occupied the chair, wearing his chain of office, and on his right were Aldermen Clendinneng, Jeannotte, Con- roy, Hamelin, Villeneuve, and on his left were Aldermen Prefontaine, Stevenson, Thompson, Perreault and Wilson, The vice chairs were ably filled by Aldermen P.Kennedy and A.Dubuc.All along the tables were flowers, supplied from Mount Royal Park conservatory; Guen- wald\u2019s orchestra discoursed an excellent programme of choice music.The menu provided by mine host Hogan, was thoroughly appreciated.The Mayor then called upon all loyal citizens to join in the toast of \u201cThe Queen,\u201d which was musically and loyally honored.His Worship the Mayor then proposed \u201cThe Health of the Chairmen of the Various Committees,\u201d and regretted the absence of Ald.Rolland.Ald.Rolland\u2019s place was taken by Ald.Clendinneng, ho delivered a most patriotic addresh, in the course of which he exhorted all to be true Canadians.Ald.Prefontaine spoke of the ability of the Roads Committee and the support accorded him.If everybody would work together, forget politics and nationality, they would get along all right.He also congratulated the press on the able support they had given him, and trusted that they would continue to do so.Ald, Jeannotte was very glad that the Police Committee were so well treated, but he desired to get a patrol wagzon before the system was completed.Ald.Stevenson joined with his colleagues in thanking the Mayor for the entertainment.It was his belief that if the coperation officials met oftener in a social capacity it would be to the benefit of all.He concluded by speaking of the pluck and perseverance of the firemen, Ald.Conroy thanked the mayor, on behalf of the Water Committee, for his kindness, and said that if he could not drown them with eloquence he could do so with water.Ald.Thompson spoke of his position and said it was not to be envied.The different depariments did not get all they wanted.Speaking particularly of St.Gabriel Ward he said they wanted roads and sidewalks more than police.The Mayor regretted the absence of the chairman of the Mark8t Committee and called upon Ald.J.B.R.Dufresne and Griffin, who responded on his behalf.Ald.Hamelin and Villeneuve were called to respond for the Bard of Health and the Park Commissioners.Alderman Prefontaine proposed the health of the Inundation Committee, and spoke strongly of the abilities of Ald.Wilson, who briefly replied.Then followed responses from Messrs.Ethier, Slackmeyer, Robb, Coyle, Forget and oy.In response to the toast of the press, Messrs.Beaugrand, Smith and Souvelle responded.The gathering, which numbered about sevepty, broke up with the singing of Auld Lang Syne and God Save the Queer.\u2014_\u2014\u2014 THE ASYLUM HORROR.Dr.Priear\u2019s Evidence Regarding the Cause of the Fire and Improvements Necessary.The inquest into the Longue Fointe calamity was begun yesterday afternoon in the grand jary room at the court house.The principal and only witness heard yesterday was Doctor Prieur, the superintendent of the female ward at the ill-fated asylum, In regard to the origin of the fire, the witness stated that he had heard that it had broken out n two different places almost eimultaneously.On Thursday, May 8th last, be said, High Constable Bissonnette handed him a box containing same human bones which had been found in the ruins, but the witness could not state whether they were the bones of a male or female.Mr.L.O.David, who i8 acting on behalf the Government, then cross-exam- ined the witness, In answer to a question the witness stated shat Le had been in Europe to visit several insane asylums, and that, from what he had seen, some improvements could be made in the management of the establishment.He also stated that the buildings he visited in Europe and used as insane asylums were only three storeys high, and that the infuriated patients were gensrally placad on the ground floor.In some institutions in Europe the infutiated inmates were placed in separate buildings.In answer to several questions put by the jurors, Doctor Prieur said that it was customary to separate the idiots and the ordinary lanatics in the insane establishments in Europe, but that in the case of Longue Point, they were not at all times separated.It was also stated by the witness that different treatment wag generally given to simple idiots and regu- ar imbeciles.At this stage of the proceedings one of the jurors remarked that the proceedings were irregular, and the president was called upon to rule the questions out of order, Mr.L O.David said that these questions were in order, as it was the intention of the Government to rebuild the institution, and to have it built on the most improved plans.If was also stated that the imbeciles and idiots should be placed in separate wards.In answer to a question by Mr.L.O.David, Doctor Prieur said that the infuriated patients should be placed in the ground floor of the building, as it was necessary that this class of patients should have lots of exercise, and that in case of accident they could be saved easily.In the asylum at Longue Pointe the infuriated patients were placed in the upper stories.Dr.Prieur, in answer to a juror, said that all the sisters had done all in their power to save the inmates when the alarm was given.In the establishments visited by the witness in Europe it could scarcely be believed that 1,200 patients were placed in the same building: He had visited five or six insane asylums in Europe, and, although there was room for improvement in those institutions, the inmates in different stages of insanity were placed in different wards.In answer to Mr.David, witness said that between 46 and 50 inmates were lodged on the third story in the west wing of the ill-fated building, known as the women\u2019s ward.It being five o'clock, it was suggested that she inquest should be adjourned till this afternoon at three o'clock.Bister Therese was interviewed yesterday afternoon, and said that she had been vigiting the different institutions where the patients wers confined and that all the inmates were comfortable, special quarters having been secured for the female patients at the mm Mother House of the Sisters of La Providence on Fullum street.| Temporary buildings are now in course of construction at Longue Pointe, and as soon as they are constructed the inmates will be \"removed thither.The Royal Insurance Company yesterday afternoon paid the Nuns $255,750, the amount of their policy.The total insurance was $300,000, but the laundry was saved.AMUSEMENTS.\u201cWILLIAM TELL.\u201d Those who listened to the performance of \u201c Faust\u201d by the Juch Opera Company, on Monday evening, had, in many respects, an agreeable surprise In the rendering of \u201c William Tell\u201d last night.The score of the opera was mercilessly cut down ; not only were the customary \u201ccata\u201d introduced, but some of the noblest passages, such as the accompanied recitative for bass * Des antiques vertus,\u201d were omitted.But what was sung was in many cases respectably and at times excellently rendered.The opera is one that needs to be performed on a large scale, and hence the orchestra, the chorus and the scenic accessories left most to be desired.The weakness of the orchestra, especially in the strings, deprived the famous over- tare of much of its effect, but the solo accompaniments were played in tune and with taste.The chorus struggled bravely, but was not equal to the strain of Rossini\u2019s music and greeted the dawn of Swiss independence with somewhat discordant strains, while the atmospheric disturbance that apparently marked the same historic event was suggested in a rather primitive fashion.The audience, however, goes to william Tell to hear the solo singers, and in this respect, even in the absence of Miss Juch, the performance was a great improvement on that of the preceding evening.Signor Tagliapietra wisely sang in Italian, and the effect of using his mother-tongue was to give much greater spontaneity to his acting, while his fine sonorous voice was admirably suited to the music of the title role.His acting and singing in the scene with Gesseler was spirited in the extreme, and he sang the touching aria \u201cKneel down in silence\u201d with pathos and dignity.The role of Arnold is one of the touchstones of dramatic tenor singing.Mr.Hedmondt\u2019s really fine tenor voice was spared much of the fatigue which is one of the dangers of the part, by liberal \u201ccuts,\u201d omitting even part of the great trio, which was, nevertheless, received in its shortened form with great enthusiasm.Mr.Hedmondt is a skilful singer, his correct intonation contrasting gratefully with that of Chevalier Scovil, who sang \u201cFaust.\u201d Mr.Hedmondt, in thelove duet of the second act, used the head- voice with great taste and he acted throughout with animation, Mr.Knights rendering of the role of Gesseler was highly dramatic and the singing of Messrs.Guise and Vetta, as Melcthal and \u2018Walther respectively, was satisfactory, the latter especially showing marked improvement on his singing as \u201cMephistopheles.\u201d Miss Von.Januschowsky possesses a powerfal dramatic soprano of considerable compass.Her upper notes when loud are occasionally rather harsh, but her intonation is good, and she sang the thankless role of Mathilda satisfactorily, ébeing recalled after the love duet and the reat air generally known as * Sombres Forets.\u201d Miss Macnichol was not in very good voice and sang without animation, but Miss Leonhardt as Jenny displayed a good soprano voice and acted pleasingly.The company, on the whole, shows promise of à good performance of some of the lighter operas of their repertoire.To-night the bill will be * Carmen, with Miss Juch in the title role.M.Giovanni Tagliapietra will appear as Esca- millo, the Toreador.\u201c QUEEN OF THE PLAINS,\u201d In spite of the inclement weather and muddy streets the Theatre Royal held two large audiences yesterday.Miss Purssell added to the success of Monday\u2019s performances, while many of the comedy effects were greatly improved.\u201c KING OF THE CARDS\u201d TO-NIGHT.There is every prospect of a very large audience at the Vics Armory to-night, when Mr.Arthur Ware, assisted by local talent, will fill a programme of eighteen numbers.Two humorous farces by the G.T.R.and Irving Dramatic Clubs will form a feature of the entertainment, \u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 CHILD DESERTION.Coroner Jones held an inquest yesterday on the body of a male child, thirteen weeks old, who died on St.George street.The infant had been brought there some weeks ago by a woman, who said that the mother was lying ill at the Hotel Dieu Hospital.On enquiry it was found that the mother of the child was not in the Hotel Dieu.The jury returned a verdict of \u201cDeath from natural causes.\u201d \u201cMUST AVE A BAWTH.\u201d The Turkish Bath is very popular in England.Travellers from there are constantly calling at the big Montreal establishment for a \u201c\u201cbawth.\u201d\u201d They are always complimentary, and where an Englishman can\u2019t find fault things must be right.Address Manager Turkish Bath, Montreal, for circulars.+» SIR WILLIAM E.LOGAN.An Interesting Paper on His Life and Works.Mr.Horace T.Martin read a paper, \u201cThe Life and Work of Sir William Edinond Logan,\u201d before the Society of Canadian Literature last evening in the Natural History Rooms.Mr.George Murray, president of the society, pre- gided.r.Martin first referred to the progress of the study of Canadian geology from the time of Pierre Boucher, in 1663, who wrote * National History ot Canada,\u201d down to the time of the numerous works on geology by Sir Wm.Dawson.Sir Wm.E.Logan, the subject of the paper, was born in Montreal in 1798, and from the year 1831 to 1838 was an enthusiastic amateur geologist.In 1842 he was appointed a director of the Canadian Geological Survey, and represented Canada at the London exhibition in 1851 and at the Paris exposition in 1855.He was knighted in 1856, and resigned from the Geological Survey in 1869 and died in 1875.Mr, Martin\u2019s paper was interesting, and will make a valuable addition to the records of the society.A short discussion followed, which was taken part in by Messrs.J.P.Edwards, Mott, and W.D.Lighthall.THE Y.M.0.A Proceedings at the Thirty-Ninth Annual Meeting Yesterday.ENCOURAGING REPORTS PRESENTED, The Association in a Flourishing Condition, With Bright Prospects.The notice posted at the door of the Y.M, C.A, building yesterday afternoon to the effect that the reading room was closed, indicated that it was being used for a purpose otherwise than for that it was principally intended.A glance inside showed tbat something special was going on.It was the evening chosen for the 39th annual meeting of the Montreal Young Men's Christian Association.For years it has been the custom to precede the business meeiing with a social gathering in the form of a tea.All after noon the many lady friends of the members worked hard, and when at seven o'clock about one hundred and fifty young and middle-aged men sat down the ladies could not but feel proud at the success of their labors, The tables were as nice as it is possible to make tea tables look, and after the good things provided had been partaken of the company leaned back in their seats and the speeches commenced.They were made by Messrs.Ross, Kingman, Geo.Hague, Warden King and Rev.Mr.Rose.Each of them referred to the grand work of the Association and urged its members to press onward.It would be invidious to mention any of the speakers in particular.Each was listened to with pleasure and at every encouraging sentence the members expressed their appreciation by continued applause.To add to the pleasure of the gathering there was some choice music ; the vocal duet of Messrs.Ritchie Bell and Fred.Myers being particularly appropriate and at the same time well sung.Shortly after eight the party adjourned to the large parlor, where everything had been comfortably and pleasantly arranged for the occasion.The chair was occupied by the president, Mr.D.A.Ross.Mr.D.A.Budge, the secrstary, was called upon to read his annual report.It was a clear, concise statement of the years work done, showing that the members have made the best use of their time.First the needs of the association are mentioned.Thess are many, but encouragement is given in the hope that next year\u2019s meeting, the 40th annual, will be held in the new building on Dominion square, Here there will be room for all, and the many needs can be satisfied by the increased accommodation.The membership now numbers 1,133, of which 250 have been added during the year.The youthful members have been well looked after.No less than 686 meetings have been held, and thess have been so well attended that the committee having the work in charge are greatly encouraged.The social and physical work and effort to do some good at the camp at St.Johns last summer were touched upon, and lessons taken therefrom that will greatly aid in the work of the coming year.The report closes with an appeal to the members to assist financially.That the association have undertaken a big scheme in the erection of a new building no one will deny, and just where all the money is coming from is not quite clear to the officers, The secretary asks for bequests.\u201cNot that I want anybody to die,\u201d he said; \u201cbut I just want you all to remember us when you are making your will.\u201d Next came the treasurer's report.It shows the disbursements to be $9,616.19.Of this, $4,022 was paid in salaries, while the remainder was spent in general repairs to the building, printing, newspapers, etc.The receipts wera $9,- 315.40, showing a shortage of $301.39, although this amount is guaranteed, but not yet collected.The subscriptions for the year amounted to $5,072, so that altogether the financial affairs of the association'are in a thoroughly good condition.The Executive Committee\u2019s report was short and sweet, although it gave a capital review of the work done.It was practically a review of the other reports, which were presented by the following committees: Room and Library, Branch, Employment, Meeting, Sunday Morning Class, Evangelical, Reception, Membership, Tract, Invitation, Missionary, Athletic, Musical, Literary and Lecture, ail of which were referred to a sub-commit- tee.The reports are all full of encouragement, and show that not only is the association doing good work ag a Christian institution, but that it is helping along many a young man who needs assistance as far as this world\u2019s goods are concerned.Take, for instance, the report of the employment committee, No less than 558 applications for situations have been made for youths connected with the association, and of these 134 have been successful.To add to the musical part of the services an orchestra has been formed, and of this part of the work splendid accounts were given last night.The seven new directors elected at the close of the meeting are Messrs.A.Ring- man, John Kennedy, Wm.Tees, R.Henderson, Chas, Cushing and David Yule, \u2019 Before dispersing votes of thanks were tendered to the ladies, the officers and the press.\u2014\u2014\u2014 SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.Calisthenic.A GRAND EXHIBITION BY THE HIGH SCHOOL CADETS Notwithstanding the unpropitious state of the weathera very large number of the elite of the city assembled in the Victoria Rink last evening, to witness a grand military and calisthenic exhibition given by the Montreal High School Cadets.The entertainment, which was under \u2018he patronage of the Governor- General and Lady Stanley of Preston, was one of the best ever given in this city, and was cordially received by the onlookers, who continually interrupted the several exercises with outbursts of applause at the remarkable work shown by the youngsters, who went through their work in admirable style, under \u2018he direction of their instructor, Capt.\u2018W.B.T.Macaulay, who deserves great credit for the proficiency of his pupils,which, according to the opinion of Lt.-Col.Hough- ton, was of the beat.Among the interested spectators was ir Donald A.Smith, who, at the close, ddressed a few congratulatory remarks to the performers, in which he said that he difficult yet pleasing evolutions, + One through by them during the evening,were a credit, not only to the dty, but to the whole of the Dominion,

Athletics.THE M, A.A, A, ONE HUNDRED YARDS HANDICAP, The first of a series of handicaps of the season arranged by the Montreal Athletic Association was brought off last evening on their grounds at Cote St.Antoine.The distance run was one hundred yards divided into four heats, This, with the second trials and the final, made seven heats altogether of as fine an exhibition of sprint running as has been seen for some time, and clearly demonstrated that the executive management acted wisely in procuring a professional trainer.Mr.Stevenson is to be congratulated on the capital form shown by his pupils, The several heats were keenly contested, and up to the final it was a ques- tiongof uncertainty as to which of the competitors would be declared the victor, and it was only after a desperate effort on the part of Lockerby that he succeeded in defeating Dodds for first place, Johnson and Leithead being close up.The following were the'officials : Judges, Messrs, D.D.McTaggart and

Disagreement.The cage of Ford va.Whelan was resumed yesterday afternoon when the examination of Mr.Bousquet, cashier of La Banque du Peuple, was continued.He produced the original transfer of Mr.Whelan\u2019s claim against the Government to the bank as collateral security for a loan of $15,000, which, however, was dated in September, and not in July, as alleged in the affidavit charging Mr.Whelan with secreting.He denied that he had a document in his possession transferring all the money which would come to him from Mr.Maurice Perreault, the amicable arbitrator between Mr, Whelan and the Government.When the question was asked whether Mr.\u2018Whelan had not attempted several times to realize on the whole amount of the collateral security, Mr.Doherty objected and the Court reserved decision, Mr, Whelan himself was then examined, and, in answer to a question by Mr.Beausoleil, said he had tried to obtain, and bad succeeded in getting, $10,000 from the bank on the strength of his claim against the Government.When the transfer of the claim to the bank was made, witness stated that he had notified Ford of the fact, and also his readiness tosettle with him as soon as he produced the books.In cross-examination, Mr.Whelan said that he gave the $10,000 to E.Pacaud, who, he claimed, stated that unless the amount was paid him the extras in convection with the construction of the Quebec Court House would not be passed in the estimates.On the question being asked as for what purpose the money had been given to Mr.Pacaud, Mr.Laflamme objected, on the ground that this had nothing to do with the case.After considerable argument the Judge reserved decision, and the case adjourned till to-day.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 PERSONAL.Mr.R.H.Palmer, of Toronig, is stopping at the
