ACCOMMODATIUN, THE FLOOD.The City's Capacity to Accommodate Visitors.No Trouble on that Score.A Calculation.The approaching Winter Carnival has been =o extensively advertised in Canada and the United States, and 80 universal has been the interest excited by the coming event, that an immense iucursion of spectators may confidently be expected.In view of this, the question of accommodation Lecomes one of serious importance, and it is rumored that some anxiety exists as to whether the hotels and lodging.houses will be able to quarter all those who may attend the festival.To arrive in Montreal in the dead of winter and to be unable to segure a comfortable lu lzing place, would be a prospect suffi tient to deter many from attempting the trip.From obrervatious made by a Herarp reporter on Saturday the conclusion arrived at in reference to this ditticulty, was that there would be ac- commudation and space for all who were likely to be present on the occasion.What with the hotels, first, second and third class, and the boarding houses, whose name is legion, an immense number can be housed and cared for, The Windsor, with its five hundred rooms can easily accommodate a thousand guests.The St.Lawrence Hall, with half that number of apartments, can dispose of some six hundred.Mr.Stearns of the Albion, tn- formed the writer that he was pre pared to take in four hundred guests; the Richelieu state that they can receive about the lame number.The American House will have beds for 200, the St.James Hotel for 100, the Graud Central and Saratoga House avout 50 each, and the latter figure may apply to the score or so of smaller hotels.The cnterp-ising roprietor of the New York House is making arrangements to accommodate some 250 extra guests and meditates taking a house in Bleury street to provide for the surplus.Then the thousand or go first- class boarding houses can each receive their quota, and if necessary the committee are prepared to engage sotne large hall and turn it intéa gigantic dormitory, so, taking it altogether, there seems to be no cause to dread an insufficiency of accommodation for the visitors.As far as the feeding of the strangers go there seems to be no kind of doubt on this point, each and every hotel proprietor having expressed himself as able to provide eatables for all who might present themselves, be their numbers\u2019 what they ay.General Lord Alexander Russell, Commander of the Forces in British North America, has telegraphed to Mr.Hogan, of the St.Lawrence Hall, to reserve him apartments for Carnival week.THE CAN ONICAL ENQUIRY.The Movement Against Archbishop Taschereau\u2014Causes of Complaint \u2014An Historical Event.The movement against Archbishop Taschereau, set on foot by the cures of the different parishes in the Province of Quebec, is growing in dimensions day by day.The numerous petitions circulated throughout these districts are being rapidly signed, and thelresult will be that the matter wili shortly be made the subject of an ecclesias tical investigation.This action against the Archbishop has been erroneously termed an impeachment, whereas the proper term should be a canonical enquiry.The difference between the two is that in a case of impeachment it is necessary to formulate certain charges, while in a canonical enquiry 1t is sufficient to ask for the convening of an ecclesiastical court, before which, and not until then, the charges will be brought forward.For this reason no distinct charges have as yet been referred against Monsignor Taschereau, ut, as a HERALD reporter was informed on Saturday by a legal gentleman well posted in ecclesiastical matters, the ground of complaint is the Liberalism of His Lordship.It is asserted that Freemasonry is extending itself among the Roman Catholics in Quebec, and that the ramifications of the order are being pushed into the parishes, to the discomfort and scandal of the C hurch.It ix also claimed that when this matter was brought to the attention of the Archbishop and hie was requested to enforce the penalty of exconmunication ordered by tue Church against the members of secret societies, he not only neglected to do so, but denied that Freemasonry existed among his flock.It is further asserted that the laity are constantly interfering in Church government and matters appertaining solely to the riesthood, unchecked by the Archbishop.ther minor causes of dissatisfaction exist as well, and will be fully ventilated when the enquiry takes place.This canonical enquiry, the reporter wa assured, would take place in the month of March, when evidence would probably be taken at Montreal,Quebec and Three Rivers simultaneously.The occasion will be a unique one, as such a court has never before been held in this country.America is considered by the Church of Rome as still a missionary country, and consequently is governed by the Propoganda and does not come under the canonical law.In Burope where the rules of the Council of Trent prevail, any complaint can be appealed frem the Bishop to the Archbishop and from thence to Rome itself.In this eountry, all grievances must be laid before a Bishop who may or may not take notice of it,and in the latter case an application must be made direct to Rome -without the complaint having been ronounced upon by any clerical dignitary ere.It is most probable that the À posto- lic Commissioner will take advantage of bis presence here to place Canada under cononical law.The meeting of the Ecclesiastical Court of enquiry, with all its pomp and cere mony, the gathering of the princes of the church, the glittering robes and numerous attendants will, as before stated, be an historical occasion.His Excellency Dom Smeulders, who has already held two of these investigations, will preside as Judge Advocate, and the various officers of the court will be represented by magnates of the church.The form of conducting these enquiries is said to be exceedingly impressive and is minutely laid down in the canon law.Legal counsel will beem loy- ed on both sides, and the matter wi 1 require some reading up, as few advocates are acquainted with the mode of procedure, and all the books on the subject extant are written in Latin, EEE A CO) RT TO THE SUFFER ING.st BRowN'S HOUSEBOLD PANACEA\u2019 has no equal for relieving pain, both internal and external.Ii cures pain in the

Lece\u2014A Simple Plan to seep a Cellar Dig.The sub-ideuce of the tloot 13 siowly Lut surely going on, and last evening only about a foot of water remained iu the cellars on the level ot Bonaventure street, and about =ix inches more in the base ments near the wharf.\u2018The retiring flood, however, has left the premises it cccupied ina fearful state, a crust of ice having formed, and this of course remains behind clinging to the walls and every availuble point.\u2018The process of geting rid of this ice wil! be both disagreeable ani ditfizult, A HenaLb reporter while examining the ravages done by the inundation came acrus=s AN GASIS amid the desert of destruction that lay around.The green spot was nothing less than a cellar stocked with barrels of flour Jying considerably below the water level perfectly dry and water proof.Although the surrounding cellars contained some four feet of water, not a drop had leaked into this favored ~pot.The reason of this way explained to the reporter by the proprietor ot the wareh -use in questien, Mr.James Williamson, who occupied the spacious stores, corner of Prince and Common streets.Ue stated that Mr.Isaac Buch- anau, who had built the place some 35 years ago, had constructed it specially to keep out these floods.The walls of the cellar were in the first place cemented together and there was ouly one drain pipe leading out of the place and that was fitted with a cup which could be screwed on at leasnre.When he saw the water, Mr.Williamson said that all that he did was to screw the cap on, and the result was, as could be seen, that no water had eutered the premises.Mr.Williamson was of the opinion that by these simple means all danger of fluoding butn in fall and spring could be totally avoided.The Continuous Feed

Napoleon Chicoine vs.Joseph Danse- reau \u2014Judgment for plainuiff on a deed of obligation for $253.64, with interest aad costs.Messrs, (eoffrion & Co.for plaintiff Messrs.Archambault & St.Louis for de fendant.In Chambers.Present\u2014The Hon.Mr.Justice RAINVILLE: The hearing on the merits in the case of Francis E.Gilman, petitioner for an injunction against the Royal Canadian Ins.Co.to restrain the company from proceeding with the sale of 2,849% forfeited shares in the capital stock of the company which are advertised to be sold by auction.Mr.Trenholme, on tehalf of the petitioner Gilman,said : The action was instituted fur the purpose of having the proceedings respecting the forfeit:re aud sale of 2,849% shares in the capital stock of the Royal Canadian Insurance Company stopped and declared illegal, null and void, and to have the sale of these shares prohibited.The sale had been advertised to take place on the 20th day of December last, and this was an incidental petition for an order prohibiting the sale until the issues were adjudicated upon.An appearance or ratler appearances had beea puj in on behalf of the company and the directors, written answers had been fyled and the parties had joined issues, an enquette had been had, and they were now to be heard on the merits of the application.A copy of the Moatreal HERALD containing the advertisement had been fyled, and the advertisement itself had been copied into the declaration and petition.This he then read.The whole advertisement consisted of the annonncement that 2,849 shares of the reduced capital of $100 each would be sold, particulars to be given at the tune of sale.The petitioner held a large number of shares in the company.He was in fact the holder of 5,000, being $500,000 of the reduced capital, and representing nearly one-third of the whole, after deducting the\u2019 forfeited shares.In the answers to the petition it was contended that the petitioner only held 600 shares, having trans ferred the remaining shares to other parties.Judge Rainville\u2014Has this anything to do with the question ?Mr.Trenholme \u2014 Well, the directors charge that the petitioner is endeavoring to wreck the company.; ; The Judge\u2014There 18 no use in arguing that point.RE Mr.Trenholme\u2014The question then is, has the petitioner a right to come in and question the legality of the proceedings connected with the forfeiture.I think a shareholder has a right to see that the proceedings are legal.This principle has been extensively recognized in the statute respecting injunctions (1878).The first section clearly defines under what circumstances an injunction may be applied for.This is one of the cases in which an injunction is permitted.But apart from this I contend.that [ have this right at common law.The charter of the company 18 & contract between all parties interested in it and every party can compel compliance on the part of the others with its interests.There can be no question at all upon this oint.I refer to Brice on Corporat ious, ed., pages 841, 87), 875 and 868.I contend that the stock in question was not properly forfeited.The charter provides (section 3) for the forfeiture of the stock in case of the refusal or neglect of any stockholder to pay any cash, but on reference to section 17 it will be seen that the Canada Joint Stock Company\u2019s general clauses Act is made a part of the charter, and that prescribes the manner in which the forfeiture shall take place.The parties in default should have been notified, and a resolution declaring the facts leading up to the forfeiture should have been disclosed.Section 20 says: If after such demand, &c.I do not question the legality of the calls; they were legal enough, but I contend that the resolution declaring the forfeiture is not legal.The directors at their meeting should bave em ied in the resolution declaring the sHares forfeited, all the facts which led to the forfeiture, and this they have not done.They were bound to notify the parties.Have they done this?I would refer to the decision in appeal in the case of the Union St.Jacques.Mr.Geoffrion\u2014Was that a joint stock company ?Mr.Trenholme\u2014I also refer to Judge Ramsay\u2019s reinarks in rendering judgment in the case of Robertson vs.The Bank of Hochelaga, Legal News vol.6, page 307.My iirst point, therefore, is there was no prior notice, and there was no resolution declaring on what the forfeiture was based.My next point is that when the directors adopt an extreme measure, such as declaring stock forfeited, they must treat all defaulters equally.They must not make fish of some and flesh of others.They must treat all equally or the forfeiture is illegal, and any stockholder may prevent the forfeiture.See Brice, pages 362, 810, and 871.Now, have the directors exercised ther powers as they should havedone ?They have not.They took Mr.Kay, for instance, who had 336 shares, and accepted from him a mortgage and then transferred his shares to a pool and distributed them among the directors.Can you then hold Kay\u2019s stock and forfeit the shares of others?You cannot do it.The law says eo.There must be fair play, and in order to have fair play vou must not play with loaded dice, and put votes on stock which ought to be forfeited as well as that of others.The directors had no power to advance one dollars to Mr.Kay.They are on the horns of a delimma.It is a case of pay your money and take your choice.The loan was a device for\u2019 the purpose of making cross entries in the books.That the directors held this stock fora purpose is evident from the evidence of Gagnon, the seceiary.He says :\u2014 \u201cThe directors were afraid the petitioner would get the control.\u201d Had he not a right to do so if he could ?Had they a right to play with loaded dice ?He then referred to Thompson,page 207 see 207.Your Honor refused to allow me to go into the character of the mortgage, but I am bound to say I think Your Honor was wrong.A large number of the parties to whom this forfeited stock belongs are dead.No notice was sent to them, and yet their stock is to be sold like that of all the others.What is our position in regard to them?Have we no interest 1n stopping such proceedings as these?We now come to the projected sale, which is illegal.The terms of sale were kept surreptitiously secret and refused to the petitioner.They were printed.They were known.Gagnon says he was instructed to make them known on the day of sale.Itis clear that the sale was projected with a view to prevent the petitioner froin obtaining any information or becoming a purchaser.The directors played with loaded dice and kept the inside track.Is it not a shareholder's absolute right to know on what conditions his property 18 to be sold ?This power of forfeiture should be fairly carried out for the benefit of the company.There 18 another point alluded to in the petition, and that is that these shares BE justified in drawing the very worst infer- 4 ences?The alvertisement does not say how much was paid up.Had we not a right to conclude that tiicy were to be sold paid up?A man doesuot sell a farm with a hypothejue upon it, _ They were to be soi, we are told, at 65 The principle is just as bad, for as there were only $30 pail np, what rigot had they to sell at 657 They alicge hat ths would bring $15 a share.But what riche had they to put them at 63 wuen only 30 had been part.There were some los wi which only $10 ani $5 had been paid.Fue proposition is virtually one to dimunish the capital of the company.Bither the stockholders are solvent or not.If not, what right have the directors to give one-seventh of the whole stock tor $42,000?Is that the contract under the charter?No such thing.They have no such power.All that we have to do 15 to make out a pr.ma face case, and this we have clearly done, and are, 1 hold, entitled to the order asked fur in the petiton.As to security, what are the respondents entitled to?Where 1s the damage they will be subjected to?They have waited fur ten years betore eaforcing this forfeiture, and it won't hurt them to wait a few months longer.Mr.Geoffrion, Q.C., who represented a portioa of the directors of the company, was the first to reply to the arguments ot Mr.Trenbolme, which he did brietly.He said that there was no doubt that under tue charter the directors had the power to confiscate the shares of a shareholder who failed to meet his calls, and that he was eatitled to be credited with the amount realized from the sale of his forfeited shares.The directors were the sole juwiges under the cireum- stances of the course to be adopted.There is a rivalry going on between Mr.Gitmau and the Directors of the Company, and the result is that the shares ot the Company are at a discount.Now, who is to blame for this?\u2018The value of the forfeited shares is not the amount pad for them, but the amount which they will bring in the market, and this fact had to be kept in view on deciding the conditions upon which they were to be sold.The shares must be sold in a manner that will make them transferable.It is said tbe Company are the proprietors of these shares.Now, the Directors Cannot make a call upon a portion of the stock, it must be a call upon the whole capital, and the question ia what would be the value of tuose thares to-day if the company were put into liquidation.I'he price would represent the value which would be put upon the shares if a liquidation took place.He contended that the directors acted strictly according to the charter of the company and that the petitioner wag not justi- tied in coming before the court under the circumstances with the application in question.Mr Benjamin, on behalf of others of the directors, followed Mr.Geotfrion in a similar strain.Mr.Bethune, Q.C., representing the company, said before takiag up the argument proper, he would refer to a point alluded to in the opening remarks on behalf of the petitioner.Mr.Gilman asserted that he held nearly one- tuird of the stock of the company.The Judge\u2014That has no influence on the question.Mr.Bethune\u2014Yes, but it requires explanation.The company comes forward and says: You only hold 650 shares, and this assertion is proved by the fact that certain shares have been transferred absolutely.Notice has been received from several parties that they hold them as collateral security.Mr.Greenshields holds 1,000 shares since the 3lst October, 1883.The question whether A, B or C's stock has been legally forfeited or not cannot be heard here.Mr.Gilman has no legal authority to raise such a question\u2019 When a thing is clearly ultra vires, every corporation has a right to be restrained.The question is have these shares been technically profeited ?for I must answer the arguments that have been advanced on the other side and not leave them as they are.It is coutended tat no notice was sent of the intention to forfeit: I have only to refer to sec.20 of the Joint Stock Companies\u2019 Act.There is nothing of that kind in the section.The charter says nothing of the kind.Tiere is no difference between the two, they are precisely the same.Although the statutes says, if any stockholder reruses, &ec., he will forfeit his shares, the directors are not obliged to act upon it.Whether they declare the shares forfeited or not they still have their recourse against the debtor.In Robertson vs.the Hochelaga Bank the court did not decide the point raised in this case.In that case all the calls had been made in globo.lt was the same as Court and Gilman.I do not thik that when the law is explicit, when the charter is plain that notice is required.My learned friend objects to the sufhici:ncy of the resolution.\u2018\u201cl'he resolution says tue shares are forfeited for non-payment of calls, and then proceeds to enumera:e every one of them 1b detail.He objects 10 the want of notice ; now it is à faut that every one of these shareholders has been notified that his stock was going to be sold.This was done by means of a circular let ter sent by post duly enregistered.All were notified.Did they complain?No; on the contrary, they are quite agreeable that it should be so.Are we to te told, then, that another shareholder may come jato Court and raise these questions?It is possible that some one of these may make the objection hereafter and say my shares were not properly forfeited.In that case he can come into Court and try the question.The next propositian is that certain shares were not forfeited and certain cases are instanced, and it is contended that all should be forfeited, that all shareholders should be placed on the same footing.The directors took security instead of exacting the money.I would refer to article 13 of the by-laws under \u2018which the directors acted, and tbat provides that no transfer of stock shall be valid unless all calls previously due thereon have been paid or secured.\u201d These by-laws have been in force for years and Mr.Gilman and every other shareholder has participated in them.As regards Mr.Kay\u2019s shares they were sold with Mr, Kays consent at $15 per share, although he had previously authorized them to be sold at $10 each.He wanted the highest price, and they were retained until $15 was realized.That was the face value at that time and equalled the amount of calls.The question is asked why leave all this stock 80 long unsold?Why was it not sold long ago?The answer is a verysim- le one.They waited for a higher price.Three calls had been paid on it amounting to $15.Mr.Trenholme\u2014That is on the reduced capital, not on the original gpock, which would have amounted to 60 p.c.Mr.Bethune-This is an insurance company and it is very important that the stockholders should be in a position to romptly meet all calls made upon them.et us suppose for instance that another St.John tire ahould occur, this company wants shareholders who are able to pay any calls without being hampered.Chief Justice Dorion\u2019s stock was sold on the same terms as Mr.Kay\u2019s.The Judge\u2014The stock of Mr.Kay and Chief Justice Dorion was not forfeited ?Mr.Bethune\u2014No.It was sold at the highest market value and strong men took side is that some shares which ought to have been forfeited were not so, and theres fore that the forfeiture of the others is illegal.\u2018There is no legal authority for auch a proposition ; not a single book.\u2018The last point referred to, viz., Lhe chze of forfeited stock belunging to shareholders who are dead.What has that to do with the question ?This is for the heirs of the parties, not for Mr.Gilman.Under our charter we only know the registered shure holders.Mr.Gagnon, the Secretary of the Company, happens to know that some of them are dead, what has that to do with this case ?The Company knows only the registered shareholders.Ÿ vo come tu the question of the projected sale.It is cuntendel that the nouice of the sale is illesal, and the reason given is that the shares ure of 8100 each.lt isa very extraordinary one, for the notice 1s according to thestatute.Luis a matter of fact which cannot be got rid of, and the law Bays 60.\u2018he next point is that the Company refused to communicate to Mr.Gilman the conditions of the sale.He says in his petition that the Directors are going tu seil these shares as paid up, whereas they onght not to be more than 65 percent.Here we have Mr.Gilman's own authority for showing that all the calls represent 65 per cent.It 18 only necessary to refer to Mr.Gagnon\u2019s deposition, and to real the conversation between him and Gilman on tie subject.He suys Gilman agreed to write a letter, to be presented to the Board, asking to be furnished with the conditions, and Mr.Gagnon was to lay it before them; but Mr.Gilman never wrote the letter.There was no proof that the Directors ever had the intention of selling the shares as paid up.The stock was going to be sold free, and Me.Gilman knew perfectly well how it was going to be sold, and yet in the face of this he has the audacity to come here and say that it was to be sold as $100 stock paid and free, and he has even sworn to that statement.The advertisement said the terms would be made known on the day of sale.There was nothing new in this, it is the usual way of advertising every auction -aic, every sale by authority of justice, every sherifs sale.It was alleged that all these shares we re to be sold en bloc, but this had not been touched upon in the argument.There never was any such intention.The law says you should do so.Each man\u2019s shares must be sold separately and an account kept of each lot sold.t is contended again that the forfeiting sharehoklers are discharged.Nothing of the kind.\u2018The shares are forfeited.Tue forfeitnre is not an alternative remedy hut only a further security.Whatever the shares bring the company will look to their owners for any deficiency, itany should arise.In Inglis vs.the Northern R.R.Company it was decided by the Lords of the Privy Council, the highest tribunal in Bnglaud, that when tie shares were forfeited and cancelled that the remedy was not alternative, but cumulative.As regards the condition of 65 p.c.paid up, Mr.Gilman was in perfect accord with us, for he says they should ke put up as 65 paid up.I therefore submit that having establisL- ed that under the law the stock has been forfeited, and that the directors have a right to sell it, there is no case made out against the directors.Your honor has no jurisdiction whether the action isa good business transaction or not.If we had wanted to lose time, we could have demurred to several of the allegations in the petition.There is one point more, and that is, had the directors a right to sell this at 65 p.c.paid up?How was it possible to sell it otherwise ?If the law gives authority to sell, you must sell free, and not subject to unpaid calls.; he Judge\u2014As a matter of fact if several partners take in a third with less capital than they have and afterwards make an equal distribution of the whole they will each receive less than they would have done had all an equal amount of capital.Mr.Kerr, Q.C., on behalf of some of the shareholders, said that the allegations of the petition were in reality those which, under the law, should have been addressed to the directors as the matters covered by them were those entirely within the discretion of the board.Mr.Gilman alleges that the stock at 65 paid up is worth $10 a share.He admits that $65 are swept away with the exception of $10.Now it was proved that \u2018the stock would sell at $15 a share, so that the osition was more advantageous than al- eged by him.The directors were in a better position to know when was the best titne to sell than any, one else.The statement that thev were causing a wanton sacrifice of the property of the shareholders to keep themselves in office way sheer nonsense.\u2018L'hey had notbing to do with these forfeitures, they were made long ago, 10 years ago, and the only parties who had a right to object were the parties to whom the shares belonged.In sales of this nature the company is bound to sell the shares free so that the purchasers will only be liable for calls to be made hereafter.The other side alleges that if sold at $15 per share there will be an enormous loss, but they have failed to point it out.Itherefore submit that if the stock has been properly forfeited the company has a right to sell it, and it must be suld for the parchaser being liable ouly for future calls.Mr.Beique replied briefly on behalf of the petitioner.Mr.Atwater rose to reply also on the same side when the objection was carried, that it was unusual for more than one counsel to reply, and that the other side would claim to be heard, if such a course was permitted.The Judge\u2014Such a course is unusual, and if the point is to be discussed I sha!l in view of the lateness of the hour adjourn until Monday.Mr.Trenholme\u2014I have the right to reply to my learned friends, argu- and I shall do 80 briefly.Mr.Bethune argued that the sale was to be made with all calls paid up, but he did not meet the facts equally.The directors proposed to sell with all calls paid, but 1t includes a call not yet made.They must conform to the common contract.They must not depreciate the capital.They have no right to attempt to vary the capital, to bring in new partners, to injure the property of the other shareholders.They cannot do it, and even if your Honor has a doubt on the subject we are entitled to the benefit of it and to the issue of the order.The company cannot go beyond the amount of calls.They have no right to make a present which will be at the expense of the shareholders.I, therefore, ask for the order.The Judge intimated that his decision would be given as soon as possible.For petitioner Gilman, Mr.Trenholme, Mr.Beique and Mr.Atwater.For the Royal Insurance Co., Mr.Bethune, Q.C.For the Directors, Mr.Geoffrion, Q.C., and Mr.Benjamin.For.the

Court of Appeals.JUDGMENT Of the Lords of the Judicial Com mittee of the Privy Council on the Appeal of The Colonial Building and Investment Association v.The Attorney General of Quebec, from the Court of Queen's Bench for the Province of Quebec, Lower Canada, delivered 1st.December 1883.Present : Lord Fitzgerald, Sir Barnes Peacouk, Sir Montague I.Smith, Sir Robert P.Collier, Sir Richard Coneh, Sir Arthur Hobhouse.: This is an Appeal from a judgment of the Court of Queen\u2019s Bench of the Pro vince of Quebec, reversing a judgment of the Superior Court, which dismissed the petition of the Attorney General of the province, praying that it be declared that the Appellant Company had been illegally incorporated, and that it be ordered to be dissolved, and prohibitedgfrom acting as a Corporation.The judgment now appealed from did not grant the prayer of the petition, but gave other relief, in the manner to be hereafter adverted to.The CoMuial Building and Investment Association was incorporated by an Act of the Parliament of Canada [37 Vict., ¢ 103].The preamble states :\u2014 \u201c l'hat the persons there-in-after named, \u201c owners of real estate in the city and district of Montreal, and elsewhere in the Dominion, have petitioned for an Act of Incorporation, to establish an Association to be called the Colonial Building and Investment Association, whereby powers may be conferred on the said Association for the purpose of buying, leasing, or selling landed properiy,buildings,and appurtenances thereof ; for the purchase of building materials, to construct an improved class of villas, homesteads, cottages, and other buildings and premises, and to seil or let the same ; and for the purpose of establishing a building or subscription fund, to which persons may subscribe or pay in money fur investment or for build- Ing purposes, and from which payments may be made for said purposes; and also to act as an agency?¢ See.1 incorporates the Association.\u201cSec.4 enacts that the Association shall have power to acquire and hold, for purchase, lease, or other legal title, any real estate necessary for the carrying out of ils undertakings; to coustruct and maintein houses or other buildings; to let, sell, convev, and dispose of the said property ; t acquire and use or dispose of every description of materials for building purposes ; tv lend money on security, by mortgage or real estate, or on Dominion or Provincial Government securities, or on the stocks of chartered banks in the Dominion ; and to acquire, hold, and dispose of public securities, stocks, bonds, or debentures of any corporate bodies, and other defined securities.The clause provides that the Association shall sell the property 80 acquired within five years from the date of the purchase thereof.Sec.5 enables the Association to act as an agency and trust company.Sec.11 provides that the chief office of the Association shall be in the city of Montreal, and that branch offices or agencies! may be establisbed in London, England, in New York, in the United States of America, and in any city or towu in the Dominion of Canada, for such purposes as the Directors may determine, in accordance with the Act; and that bonds, coupons, dividends, or other payments of the Association may be made payable at anv of the said offices or agencies.\u201d The Secretary of the Association, the only witness called in support of the petition, proved that the Association had bought lands, erected houses on such lands, and sold them, and had also built houses on the lands of others, and lent money on real estate.He stated that these operations had hitherto been confind to the province of Quebec, though efforts had been made to extend the business of the Company to other provinces, and to establish agencies in Glasgow and New York, which had failed in consequence of theinability of the Association to raise sufficient capital.Iu order to understand the question which ultimately became the principal one to be considered in this appeal,viz., whether the judgment of the Court of Queen\u2019s Bench 13 properly founded upon the At torney-General\u2019s petition, it is necessary to refer to tne provisions of the Code of Civil Procedure of Lower Canada on which the proceedings are based, the scope and prayer of the petition, and the nature and form of the judgment appealed from.The heading of chapter 10, section 1, of the Code is, ¢ Of Corporations illegally formed, or \u201c violating or exceeding their powers.\u201d The material allegations of the petition filed by the Attorney-General are the following :\u2014 ¢ That the ¢ Colonial Building and Investment Association\u2019 for years past have been and are still acting as a Corporation in the City of Montreal, and elsewhere, in the Province of Quebec exclusively, and as such, ever since the date of its existence herinafter mentioned, have been buying, leasing and selling landed property, buildings, and appurtenances thereto, coustructing villas, homsteads, cottages, and other buildings, and selling and letting the same, and have also been lending money on security by mortgage or hypothec on real estate in this province, the whole without being legally 1acorpor- ated or recognized.* That the operations and business of the said Association have been limited to the Province of Quebec, and veing, moreover, of a merely local or private nature in the said province, and having provincial ubjects affecting property and civil rights in the said proviuce, the said Association could not lawfully be incorporated, except by or under the authority ot the Legislature of the Province of Quebec.\u2018That the said Association was incorporated by the Parliament of Canada, in the year one thousand eight hundred and seventy-four, 37th Victoria, Chapter 103, and has ever since been in operation under the said Act of Incorporation which, for reasons above alleged is null and void and of no effect, the said Act of incorporation being ultra vires.\u201cWherefore your petitioner prays that a writ of surnmons upon the affidavit hereto annexed be ordered to issue in due course of law, and that the said defendants be adjudged and declared to have been, and to oe illegally formed and incorporated, and that the said illegal Association may be ordered to be dissolved,;and be declared to be dissolved, and finally, that the defendant be prohibited from acting in future as such eorporation, the whole with costs distraits to the undersigned attorneys \u201d The petition was verified by affidavit, as required by the Code, and thereupon an order for a writ of summons against the Company was issued by a judge.The petition also aileges that it was presented at the solicitation of John Fletcher, their places.were to be \u201ctold paid-up.Were we not æ \u2014- - The proposition laid down on the other better for less money at the Grand Union Hotel than at anv first-class note: in the city a shareholder of the Company, who had become security for costs.It appears that CTT Re Fletcher was in defanlt in calle, but in the view their Lordships take of the case any further reference to this relator becomes immaterial.The broad objection taken by the Attorney General in the petition is, that the Association wax not legally incorporated,the statute incorporating it being ultra vires of the Parliament of the Dominion.The judgment of the Superior Court, given by Mr.Justice Caron, distinctiy over- rulea this objection.Mr.Justice Tessier 1s the only Judie of the Court of Queen\u2019s Bench who atlirmed it.Chief Justice Dorion, in a judgment which received the concurrence of two vther judges, acknowledged that having regard to the observations of this Buard in the case of The Citizens Insurance Company of Canada v.Parsons (L.R., 7 Appeal Cases, 96), it could not be held that the incorporation of the Association was hevond the powers of the Domiuion Parliament, and illegal: and the majority of the Court gave judgment upon the assumption, as their Lori- ships understand the reasons of the Judges, that the Association was lawfully incor orated.The conclusion of the formal Judgment of the Court is as follows :\u2014 * That the said company, respondents, bad and have no right to act as a corporation for or in respect of any of the said operations of buying, leasing, or selling of landed property, buildings, and appurtenances thereof, or the purchase of building materials to construct villas, homesteads, cottages, or other buildings and prewises, or the selling or letting of the same, or the establishment of a building or subscription fund for investment or building purposes, or the acting a3 agents in connection with such operations of the aforesaid, or any like affäirs, or any matter of property or civil rights, or any objects of a purely local or proviucial nature, in any manner or way within the said Province of Quebec, and doth prohibit the said Company, respondents, from acting as a corporation within the said Province of Quebec for any of the ends or the purposes aforesaid.\u201d Mr.Justice Monk, in a short but clear judgment, dissented from his colleagues, and agreed with Mr.Justice Caron\u2019s judgment.Their Lordships cannot doubt that the majority of the Court was right in refusing to hold that the Association was not lawfully incorporated.Although the observations of this Board in the Citizens Insnr- ance Company v.Parsons, referred to by the Chief Justice, put a hypothetical case by way of illustration only, and cannot be regarded as a decision on the case there supposed, their Lordships adhere to the view then entertained by them as to the respective powers of the Dominion and Provincial Legislatures in regard to the incorporation of companies.Itis asserted in the petition, and was argued in the courts below, and at this bar, that inasmuch as the Association had confined its operations to the Province of Quebec, and its business had been ofa local and private nature, it followed that its objects were local and provincial, and consequently that its incorporation belonged exclusively to the Provincial Legislature.But surely the fact that the Association has hitherto thought fit to confine the exercise of its powers to one province cannot affect its status or capacity asa corporation, if the act incorporating the Association was originally within the legis lative power of the Dominion Parliament.The company was incorporated with powers to carry on its business, consisting of various kinds, throughout the Dominion.The Parliament of Canada could alone constitute à corporation with these powers; and the fact that the exercise of them has not been co-extensive with the grant cannot operate to repeal the Act of Incorporation, nor warrant the judgment prayed for, viz., that the company be declared to be illegally constituted.It is unnecessary to consider what re medy, if any, could be resorted to if th: incorporation had been obtained from Parliament with a fraudulent object, for the only evidence given in the cage discloses no ground for suggesting fraud in obtaining the Act.Their Lordships therefore think that the Courts in Canada were right in holding that it was not competent to them to declare, in accordance with the prayer of the petition, that the Association was illegally incorporated, and ought to be dissolved.There remains the question, which was mainly argued at the bar, whether the judgment of the Court of Queen\u2019s Beuch which, shortly stated, declares that the Association has no right to act asa Corporation in respect of its most important operations within the Province of Quebec, and prohibiting it from so acting within the province, can be sustained.It was not disputed by the counsel for the Attorney-General that, on the assump tion that the Corporation wus duly cou- stituted, the prohibition was too wide, and embraced some matters which might be lawfully done in the province, but it was urged that the operations of the Company contravened the provincial law, at the least, in two respects, viz., in dealing in land, and in acting in contravention of the Building Acts of the province, It may be granted that, by thelaw of Quebec, Corporations cannot acquire or hold lands without the consent of the Crown.This law was recognized by this Board, and held to apply Lo foreign Corporations in the case of the Chaudiere Gold Mining Company vs Desbarats (L.R.5, P.C.277).It may also be esutned, for the urpose of this appeal.that the power to Boal or modify Bhs law falls whbin No.13 of Section 92 of the British North America Act, viz., ¢ Property and Civil Rights within the Province,\u201d and belongs exclusively to the Provincial Legislature; so that the Dominion Parliament could not confer powers on the Company to override it.But the powers found in the Actof Incorporation are not necessarily inconsistent with the provincial law of mort- main, which does not absolutely prohibit Corporations from acquiring or holding lands, but only requires, as a condition of their so doing, that they should have the consent of the Crown.If that consent be obtained, a Corporation does not infringe the provincial law of mortmain by acquiring and holding lands.What the Act of Incorporation has done is to create a legal and artificial person with capacity to carry on certain kinds of business, which are defined, within a defiued area, viz, throughout the Dominion.Among other things, it has given to the Association power to deal in land and buildings, but the capacity so given only enables it to acquire and hold land in any province consistently with the laws of that province relating to the acquisition and tenure of land.If the Company can so acquire and hold it, the Act of Incorporation gives it capacity to do so.tis said, however, that the Company has, in fact, violated the law of the province by acquiring and holding land without having obtained the consent of the Crown.fi may be so, but this is not the vase made by the petition.Proceedings founded on the alleged violation by a Corporation of the mortmain laws would£involve an inquiry opening gnestions (some of which were touched upon in the arguments at the bar) regarding the scope and effect of these laws, the fact of the Crown\u2019s consent, the nature and sufficiency of the evidence of it, the consequences of a violation of the laws, and the proper parties to take advantage of it; questions which are certainly not raised by the allegations and conclusions of this petition, So with respect to the objections founded on the Acts of the Province with regard te building societies.Chief Justice Dorion payment of his\u2019 , JANUARY 7 appears to be of opinion that, inasmuch as the Legisiature of the province had passed Acts relating to such societies, and defined and limitel their operations, tue Dominion Parliament was incem- petent to incorporate the present Association, having for one of its objects the erection of buildings throughout the Dominion.Their Lordships, at\u2019 present, fail to see how the existence of these Provincial Acts, if competently passcd fur local objects, can interfere with the power of the Dominion Parliament to incorpo:aie the Association in question.If the Association by its operations has really infringed the Provincial Building Societies Acts, a proper remedy may doubtless be found, adapted to such a viol ation of the Provincial law ; but, as their Lordships have just observed, with refer ence to the supposed contraveution of the mortmain Acts, that is not the gase made by the petition, It row becomes material to examine mere closely than has hitherto been done the allegations and conclusions the petition really contains.The first paragraph, after stating that the Corporation carried on its operations in Quebee excluaively, couclu- des thus: \u201cthe whole without being legally incorporated or recognized.\u201d The 2nd paragraph avers that the operations of the Company being confined to Quebec, and heing of a merely local nature, affecting property and civil rights in the Province, \u2018\u201c could not lawfnily be incorporated except by the authority of the Legislature of the Province.\u201d The 3rd paragraph alleges that, for these reasons, \u201c the Act of Incorporation is null and void, the said Act of Incorporation being ultra vires.\u201d The conclusion and prayer based on these allegations are, that the Association Le declared to be illegally incorporated, be declared dissolved, and prohibited fro:n acting in future as a Corporation.It seems to their Lordships it would bea violation not only ofthe ordinary rules of procedure, but of fair trial, to decide this appeal! upon a new case which, assuming a lawful incorporation, rests on the supposed infringement of the laws of the Province by the Company in conducting its operations.This is not the wrong struck at by the petition, but a wrong-doing raie- ing 18sues of a wholly different character to those to which the allegations and conclusions of the petition are alone directed and adapted.It is to be observed that the inquiries made of the Company\u2019s Secretary were of a general nature, and mainly directed to support the allegation in the petition that the Corapany\u2019s operations had been limited to the Province or Quebec.No investigation of the title to any of the lands it held, nor of any particular transaction, was gone into at che hearing.The 998th article of the Code of Civil Precedure requires that the summons to be issued must\u201d be preceded by a petition to the Court containing \u2018 conclusions adapted tothe nature of the contravention,\u201d to be supported by an affidavit; and provides that the summons cannot be ir- sued upon such information without the authority of a Judge.It is quite plain that the conclusions of this petition are not adapted to the case now relied on by the Attorney Geueral ; so that neither the geu- eral principle regulating procedure nor the special requirements of the Code allow of its being set up on these proceedings.If the Company is really holding property in Quebec withont having complied with the law of that Province, or is otherwise violating the Provincial law, there may be found proceedings applicable to such violations; though it is not for their Lordships to anticipate them, or to indicate their form.It should be observed that their Lord- shops, in the case supposed in their judgment in the appeal of the Citizens\u2019 Insurance Company, in regard to corporations created by the Dominion Parliament with power to hold land being subject to the law of mortmain existing In any province in which they sought to acquire it, had not in view the special law of any one pro vince, nor the question whether the prohibition was absolute, or only in the absence of the Crown's consent.The object was merely to poiut out that a corporation could only exercise its powers subject to the law of the province, whatever it might be, in this respect.It was argued that the judgment of the Court of Queen\u2019s Beach might be sustained by the part of the prayer which asked that the Company \u2018 be prohibited from aciing in future as a corporation within the Province of Quebec \u201d for certain purposes.But the prohibition is asked as consequential upon the declarations prayed for, and when these are refused, there are not only no declarations, but no allegations in the petition to enstain it.It has been seen that the prohibition contained in the judgment of the Court of Queen\u2019s Bench is not an injunction limited to restraining the Company from doing ape- citied acts in violation of particular laws of the province, but is a general prohibition founded un a declaration introduced by the Court, other than those prayed for, that the Company has no right to act as a corporation in dealing with lands and build:ngs, and certain other matters within the province.This declaration, with the prohibition founded ou it, is obviously too extensive.À prohibition in these wild and sweeping terms would prohibit the Company from acquiring or dealing in lands, though it had the Crown\u2019s consent, and could only be warranted by affirming the invalidity of the Act of Incorporation, which would be opposed to what has been stated in the previous part of this judgment to be their Lordships\u2019 view; or at least by affirming that the Company, in exercising its powers in the province, must necessarily violate the provincial law, which, as already shown, is not a necessary consequence.n the result, their Lordships will humbly advise Her Majesty to reverse the judgment under appeal, and to order that the judgment of the Superior Court be affirmed, and that the present appellant\u2019s costs of the appeal to the Court of Queen's Bench in Canada be paid by the present respondent.The appellant must also have the costs of the appeal to Her Majesty.W.W.Robertson, Q.C., for The Colonial Building

O'Donnell himself confessed his crime, and his confession has been published ; and if he murdered Carey he has been justly hung after a fair trial in which he received the benefit of all the rights and privileges he could have claimed had Le been the first nobleman in the empire on trial for his life.Butler, after declaring that O Donnell was not fairly tried, remarks :\u2014 That being the case, it was the duty of our Government, through its Executive branch, to interfere, and that branch of the Government did do so, and asked thai he might be respited.I made such à request fro:a the Government before any movement was made by any other party to my knowledge.England has chosen to refuse to entertain that request.The course of justice toward O'Donnell is not what England wishes and asks for in regard to one of her own citizens in this country.There was one Amero, a subject of Great Britain living in Nova Scotia, came here, and while he was here a woman, Carleton by name, was foully murdered, Suspicion fell upon Amero, who went to Nova Scotia.Those suspicions were confirmed by hia statements to his relatives that he was concerned in some murder about that time, It became my duty as Governor of Massachusetts to move the President for a process of extradition upon the authorities of the Dominion of Canada for his delivery up to the justice of Massachusetts.When he was arrested in Nova Scotia Amero was taken before the court there and a full hearing was had.From the evidence there adduced there was little doubt of his guilt, if he was sane, The learned judge who heard the cause made application to the Dominion authorities, and they made application to the British Minister at Washington, and the British Minister made representations to the Secretary of State, who called the matter to my attention and asked that Amero be assured a fair trial.I replied that he would be fairly tried; that learned counsel would be assigned by the court to defend Amero, which was done, and I detailed two of the State detectives to assist his counsel in looking u evidence in Amero\u2019s behalf, and the result of the examination I believe will be that Amero will not be tried at all.I have given you, my friend, an instance of the course of justice in the United Stutes in the case of a British subject, done at the request of the British Minister, seconded by the request of the Secretary of States of the United States.Compare the course of the authorities in the United State, under my administration, with what was done to O\u2019Donuell, an American citizen, in Eng land by English authorities, and there cau be no stranger criticism on O Donnell\u2019s case than is the caseof Amero.It was easy to use hard words about the case of O\u2019Donnell, but giving Amero\u2019s case brings out broad facts.Is the \u201cgolden rule\u201d applicable to nations, \u201cdo as you would be done by ?\u201d ; It would be difficult to imagine a more ingenious and deliberate twisting of facts \u2014 rr see [ ! and inferences than we have here.What | real parallel is there between the two cases ?What possible ground for alleging bad faith or international discourtesy on the part of the Briti-h Government ?The United States Government\u2019s request was treated with respect.The Guvernment refurred the matter to the judge who tried O'Donnell, as is customary in cases where an appeal is made for an arrest of sentence.The judge reported that there was nothing to warrant the suspension.What more could a constitutional government do ?Was it expected that such a Guverument would take this man O'Donnell out of the hands of justice because some Democratic voli- ticians in Washington thought fit to put party pressure on a President who is not of their political creed ?Did they imagine that the Briti-h Government was a despotism which could either hang criminals or turn them loose on society of its own accord ?There is no complaint by the United States Government or even by any respectable United States politician of want of courtesy on the part of the British Government.In fact, all reputable United States citizens are heartily ashamed of the attempt to identify the good name of the Government of their country with the cowardly assassin who shot down a defenceless man in cold blood, and M whose behalf the ablest counsel in America and England could not produce a tittle of justificatory evidence.- But when Amero\u2019s case is mentioned we see still more clearly the knavery of the comparison instituted by Butler.Amero was a weak-minded man and, no doubt, innocent of the charze brought against him.He was a Nova Scotia Frenchman, resident temporarily in Boston or vicinity.He left for home soon after a murder had been committed just outside of Boston.Detectives were employed to find the murderer and they fas tened upon Amero.He was followed to his home in Digby County, Nova Scotia, and arrested there.The United States Government applied to the Canadian authorities for his extradition.The matter came before the courts in Nova Scotia in the usual way.There was an examination before Judge Savary to ascertain whether there was sufficient evidence to justify extradition, because the courts and not the Government have the practical decision of these matters.An prima facie was made out, and although the judge was of opinion that the man, though weak, was innocent, yet in deference to the expressed wish of the United States authorities Amero was surrendered to take his trial in Boston, it being held that the prima facie case which would have justified his being held for trial in Canada would justify his being surrendered for trial in the States.At the same time representations were made to the authorities in Ottawa in regard to the case and the presumed innocence of the man, who was simply a victim of his own weak-min- dedness, which had been taken advantage of Ly detectives over anxious to win reputation and a pecuniary reward.On the strength of these representations the Ottawa authorities placed the facts before the United States Government and requested that Amero might be properly defended, which wish was conveyed to the Massachusetts authorities.The action taken by the latter, whether under General (Governor) Butler's auspices or not, was very creditable to them, and the announcement which he makes in regard to Amero\u2019s innocence and his probable discharge from custody is quite satisfactory.At the same time, it should be noted that whereas in O\u2019Donnell\u2019s ease al} the facts, evidence, presumptions and popular belief favored his guilt, in Amero\u2019s case the inferences and presumptions were all in the other direction.In O\u2019Donnell\u2019s case there was no pretence that the wrong man had been arrested and tried ; there was no question of his being in his right mind through all the proceedings ; there was really no denial of his guilt; there was nothing whatever to show that an act of injustice was being perpetrated ; and as a matter of fact the justice of hissentence, and the fairness of his treatment are conceded by all except a few Anglophobists.In Amero\u2019s case, in the opinion of disinterested parties, a weak-minded man stood in danger of his life ; an innocent man, unable to bear the expense of employing counsel and almost unable to care for himself in ordinary affairs, was in a fair way of being hanged ; and the Judge who handed him over to the United States was obliged to intervene.Under the circumstances the United States Government and the Massachusetts Executive did what was only a reasonable act on their part.The British Government did the same.They went as far as they were justified in going, and no national authority in any part of the world has seen anything to censure in their conduct.Inthe one case the life of an innocent man is saved ; in the other case the life of a brutal, confessed murderer has been taken.Justice is done in each case and the attitude of both Governments is to be commended by all who desire the reign of justice rather than the moral chaos which must ever accompany the reign of lawlessness and injustice.RAILWAY ACCIDENTS.It is a remarkable fact that the numerous railway accidents which have occurred in Canada in the past fortnight have occurred through the simplest neglect of duty on the part of the officials.The running rules of the roads were ample for all emergencies, but the neglect of the employes in every instance frustrated the intentions of the management.Take the horrible affair out of Toronto.\u201cI forgot all about the suburban train,\u201d said the TIIE MONTREAL HERALD, culpable conductor.This tells the whele story.In another instance the train despatcher * forgot\u201d that he had telegraphed an order to cross Vietoria Bridge.Wlen men accept such vositivus in the railway service they do it with the full knowledge of the responsibility which the duties carry with them.They work their way up from the lowest to the higher positions, and thus understand not only their own duties but those of the uflicers under them.They know that the lives of men, women aud children are in their keeping, that neglect of any part of their whole duty means wounds and death, destruction of property, and that for blunders or neglect they must answer with their own lives or persons.There is nothing compelling men to accept such respousibility; they do it willingly or rot at all; and travellers by rail believe that the willing employes who have their lives in danger understand and will perform their duties to the letter.It is this faith in the intelligence and honesty of railway employes that inspires confidence, induces travel and leads men and women to commit their lives and the lives of their little ones to the care of the employes.Fortunately, in the great multitude of cases this confidence is not misplaced, fur, notwithstanding the recent series of railway accideuts, ithas been demonstrated that the perpetual traveller by rail is safer from accident or death than he would be anywhere else.But it is only by the railway managers not hesitating in the punishment of the negligent servant that this condition of efficiency and security was reached, and it is most undesirable that the hands of the management should be weakened by the uncalled for sympathy of coroner\u2019s juries or other juries when culpable officials come before them for examination or trial.If the law be not sternly enforced, if this excuse of \u201cforgetting\u201d orders be not utterly stamped out, railway travel may come to be a good deal less secure than it has been in the past, and a blow will be struck at the railway interests of Canada from which they may not easily recover.It is well known that railway managers in Canada have adopted all the latest and best of improvements which have been offered.Our railways are thoroughly equipped.The service is one which pays its employes well without overworking them.Whatever may be said to the contrary, it is notorious that active, intelligent level headed men are constantly seeking to enter this service in preference to most other occupations.As a rule these men are vigilant and conscientious, and thorough in the performance of their duties.But what avail all these precautions for safety intravel if there are men in responsible positions in the service\u2014such as conductors and train despatchers\u2014who \u201cforget \u201d-who fail to remember orders on which hang life and death?We know thereis a feeling of personal sympathy even in the breasts of stern railway managers for the official who, perhaps, by his first accident may blight his own prospects for many years to come; but while private sympathy may properly be extended to one so unhappily situated, duty to the travelling public, whose lives are imperilled, perhaps taken, requires that degradation or dismissal or punishment by the courts\u2014 according to the offence\u2014should follow swiftly.As a matter of fact, the public are forced to travel by rail ; they have no option.The traveller in these days cannot say \u201cI may, or I may not.\u201d Railways have become a far greater public necessity to travellers than coaches and highways were at one time.It follows, then, that if the traveller is compelled to travel by rail he should have every assurance for the safety of life and limb.He should be guaranteed absolute immunity from all danger, as far as the work of finite man can supply such guarantee.The interests of railway managers and companies everywhere having induced the adoption of the most stringent regulations and precautions, whatever the people, the press and the courts can do to strengthen the hands of the managers in dealing with the blunderers and incompetent in the railway service should be done frankly and boldly and without shadow of fear or favor.A RETROGADE MoveEMENT.\u2014The proposal of the Ottawa City Council, to enlist all the municipal bodies of Ontario in a crusade against commercial companies, is worthy of the dark ages.It is to be hoped it will not succeed.Instead of embarrassing the operations of banks, insurance companies, gas companies, telegraph and telephone companies by the imposition of heavy special taxes in all the cities and towns of the Province, the business of these companies should be left as free from local taxation as possible.In fact, what we waat in this Dominion is free trade within our own borders, even if a portion of our industries must have \u201c protection\u2019 against the outside world.All who believe in free trade as a general principle should certainly support the freedom of trade and business within the Dominion, while those who demand protection against other countries can only hope for the success of their principle by unshackling all local commercial intercourse, throwing down all internal barriers, and abolishing, as far as possible, all internal commercial taxes and government duties.All who wish to see all sections and parts of this Dominion knit tegether as a compact, prosperous whole should favor the utmost freedom of commercial intercourse in every part.To whatever extent our internal commercial relations fail in this perfect freedom, to the same extent we shall fail to realize the consummation of a union, cne and indivisible.AND DAILY COMMERCIAL GAZETTE.MONDAY, JANUARY 7 un will be found an account of a new Montreal enterprise, one of the many that are scattered all over the Dominion in which Montreal capital is invested, The Cumberland Railway and Coal Company possesses one of the largest and most promising coal and railway properties on the continent.The mines are very valuable, not by estimate only but by actual working experience.There are numerous seams of coal, some of which have been worked to advantage while others have not yet been touched.The coal veinS controlled by the Company extend over a great tract of country, some ten square miles or more.The coal is excellent for fuel, steam or gas purposes and practically inexhaustible, while the demand is practically unlimited.There is no coal mine in Nova Scotia so centrally situated to meet the wants of consumers in the Maritime Provinces, the Upper Provinces and the United States.CLAUS SPRECKLES, 8 Hanoverian, landed in Charleston from Europe thirty years ago, drifted to California, invested in real estate in San Francisco, and did a large trade in sugar there.His business carried him to the Sandwich Islands, where he acquired a monopoly of the sugar plantations and is the largest landed proprietor in Hawaii.It isstated that in consequence of discredit with the people through a million dollar loan which King Kalakaua obtained from Spreckles, the King is obliged to abdicate in favor of Queen Emma.Spreckles is under 60 years of age, compactly built, medium height, hair thin and white ; his iron grey whiskers and moustache setting off & typical broad, florid German face.He bad not a cent in his pocket when he crossed the continent to commence life1n \"Frisco.Ax IMPORTANT JUDGMENT.\u2014We publish to-day an oflicial copy of the judgment of the Law Lords of the Privy Council in the case appealed to them in the matter of the Attorney General of the Province of Quebec and the Colonial Building Society and Investment Fund.The point selected by this judgment isa question of Mortmain, and the right of the Dominion Parliament to grant acts of incorporation to Building Societies whose operations are intended to be extended to the Dominion instead of being confined to the Province of Quebec.Those who are pronouncing the Dominion Licence Act of last session unconstitutional will probably find food for reflection in the principles laid down in this latest judgment of the Privy Council.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 The sentiment in favor of woman suffrage i8 growing rapidly in Iowa, it is claimed.Its advocates are vigorously al work and some of the most influential papers in the State have given in their adhesion to the movement, The next Legs lature will be asked to take the final step toward sulnnitting a constitutional ameud ment on the subject to the people, and if this is done an earnest campaign in favor of its adoption will be made in 1884.This is good news.When the ladies appear upon the scene the game of politice will be far more interesting than it is today.Those who are calling out fora new element, new blood and a change of programme in the political world will be amply gratified when the ladies take a hand in, \u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 THAT CARPENTER ESTATE.\u2014 About once in six or eight years a move is made to interest \u201c the heirs of the Carpenter Estate\u201d in the £40,000,000 stg.property in England, which is supposed to be awaiting their action.A Mr.James Usher, 9 Murray St., one of the * heirs\u201d has issued a pamphlet \u201c giving an interesting history of the efforts that have been made to discover who the members were, where they belonged, and all their antecedents.\u201d Theclaim of the American family to the trustin England of £40,- 000,000 was not entertained by the Lord Chancellor, but this will not prevent continued claims and more visits to England by the members of the family.Snr Frar PrrsurYy CHARGED,\u2014The quarantine officials in New York charge seme United States consuls in foreign ports with making false reports and affidavits with regard to the hygienic condition of the ports at which they are stationed.It is alleged that frequently captains arrive from badly infected ports bringing consular bills of health swearing to perfect freedom from disease.The United States Government hag taken the matter up.Mr.GILMAN AND THE RoyaL CANADIAN.\u2014 The argument in this case before Judge Rainville in the Superior Court Chambers on Saturday will be found fully reported in to-day\u2019s HErannp.The argument, which occupied the whole day, was closed, and it is expected that the judge will give decision in the course of à few days.THE Mair SteaMER Sardinian arrived at Halifax at 6 on Sunday morning with the following cabin passengers :\u2014Col.Williams, Lt.Saddler, F.H.Biddell, A.W.Biddell, Miss C.E.Wells, Mrs.Hall, Miss Hall, Miss Irwin, Mrs.Reid, Mr.E.O.White, B.J.Whitla;

Cigar Factory.Disastrous Conflagration.The City Illuminated Scenes at the Fire The Fire Brigade did nuble service last night, for they were called out three times in as many hours, the last fire being by far the most serious, and it was at this conflagration, worn out and weary as they must have been from their previous exertions, that the brave fellows distinguished themselves.By their strenuous exertions, backed by coolness and experience, they succeeded in confining the flames to the building in which they ori ginated, although not twenty feet away stood a ma znificent six story building still in the hands of the builders.Besides this, the flames were constantly threatening the buildings in the rear, and on the opposite side of the street, fronting the burning building.Despite these serious difticulties the firemen succeeded 10 queliing what seemed to promise to be à most extensive conflagration in an incredibly short space of time.Too much praise cannot be accorded to them for their work on this occasion.THE FIRST ALARM was sounded from the Weilington street Fire Station and on proceeding to the spot the fire was found to be in the four story warehouse at the corner of Common and Duke, belonging to B.L.Nowell & Co., dealers in fer:ilizers, &e.In this building was stored a large quantity of rags, bones, hair and other similar articles used in the business.The flames were issuing from the second story w ndows, into which the firemen soon had half a2 dozen streams playing, Owing to the combustible nature of the articles stored in the building the flames ran like wildfire through each flat, consuming everything in spite of the strenuous efforts of the firemen.After about an hour\u2019s hard work the flames were got under contro!, and the floors and interior generally of the warehouse was found to be not seriously damaged.The ™ damage to the stock and building was roughly estimated to be about $5,000, fuily insured.While the above fire was in progress A SECOND ALARM was given, and part of the firemen were detached to attend it.The blaze which was not a serious one was found to be in H.Balmer, jr\u2019s., lumber yard, corner of St.Charles Borrotumee and Dorchester streets.The wooden otfice was on fire but a well directed stream soon extinguished the flames.DAVIS\u2019 CIGAR FACTORY CATCHES FIRE.The mea from the latter fire had hardly reached the station when, a third alarm was given from No.7 box, McGlll street.Before the reels could reach the spot the whole sky was lighted up by the flames ouring forth from all the windows of the immense factory occupied by Messrs.Davis & Sun, cigar manufacturers, corner McGill and Wellington streets.In an incredibly short space of time the whole building was completely enveloped in flames that shot forth a hundred feet into the air in every direction.The entire brigade, who were soon on the spot, undismayed by the serious character of the conflagration, set to work briskly, attacking the flames in front, side and rear simultaneously.The pressure did not appear to be very strong, as the streams did not reach above the firstifloor.Adjoining the burning building was another one exactly the same dimensions, and separated only by a narrow gap from the first story upwards.Into this building some of the men entered and began playon the flames from the third story.A fortunate circumstance was that the wind was blowing away from this bailding, to which undoubtedly may be attributed its ultimate safety.The heat was so intense that the coal office on the other side of © McGill began to catch fire.and it was feared that the coal itself would ignite.A number of bystanders, however, revented the lames trom spreading, and 1appily averted this dasger.In the rear, on Grey Nun street, the opposite buildings began to smoke under the excessive heat, necessitating the playing of a stream of water constantly npon them.The snow in the streets near by, under the great heat, sent forth clouds of vapor as it melted.Faster than it takes to write this description the flames absolutely devoured the fated building, and within half an hour after, the first alarm the whole place was enveloped in flames.Presently the roof fell in with a heavy crash, sending up showers of sparks, and, after that, at short intervals the floors fell in one by one, causing dull detonations that sounded like explosions.The walls, however, stood firm, and the flames being confined gradually grew less furious, and finally su dull and glowing mass.one of the finest factories in the city was destroyed.MR.DAVIS, who had been spending the evening with some friends arrived on the spot when the He inform- fire was more than half over.ed the writer that the stock comsisted principally of raw and leaf tobacco, and that there were some thousands of empty cigar boxes stored in one corner of the building.He estimated the loss to be about $80,000, The building cost in the neighborhood of $40,000, and Mr.Davis said he did not care 80 much for the fire itself, as the idea fully covered by insurance.is a total loss.that it would throw some three hundred hands out of employment.At six o\u2019clock the man in charge of the building made his \u2018he origin of the fire re- usual rounds.mains a mystery.NOTES.Constable Brown, of the Central Station, who gave the alarm, says that he observed flames issuing from the second story window, and that by the time he reached the le the building was ina alarm box ha blaze.The City and District Company\u2019s watchman discovered the fire almost at the same time, arriving at the alarm box just behind Constable Brown.Captain Beckingham, of the Salvage De- artment, on his arrival broke open the door of the factory, and entering with his
