June 8.\u2014All the mewspapers speak in eulogistic terms of the late Sir John Macdonald and they express the deepest regret at his death, The Daily News says his death is a loss to the whole Empire, If he was not exactly a great man he did great things, He contrived to postpone some of the most searching questions of Colonial pelicy, therefore his death}is likely to preduce far-reaching changes, The sad and weary vigil is over.The stricken statesman 18 at rest, There is a vacant seat in the House of Commons where he so often and so successfully marshalled his political forces.There is a vacant seat in the Council Chamber where be so long presided over the men who along with himself were charged with affairs of State.important And thera is a great blank and a sorrowing widow in the bome at Earnacliffe.Sir John Macdonald has exchanged the things, of time for the realities of eternity, The well-known voice is hushed and the wearied frame lies still, pale and cold in the embrace of death.Who shall forbid the grief that wells up in the hearts of his followers in Parliament and all over Canada, as they feel that In an important sense they have suffered a great bereavement.Or who venture to repress the genuine sympathy that fills the hearts of his political opponents, as they feel that Canada has suffered a great loss; that he who was a sturdy opponent, whose policy and methods they often condemned, was after all a genuine Canadian who for forty-seven years gave himself to the service of his country, wia- ning a reputation that is world-wide.And what of the bereaved widow and fatherless offspring.Their grief is a sacred thing.Who but those who have been bereaved can fully understand its depth and intensity?For these the sympathy of the Canadian people will be widespread\u2014universal\u2014the sad event reminding them that death visits the palatial residence of the great as readily as Le visits the cottage of the reasant.Tread lightly in the chamber of death.There lies all that ie mortal of him who for so many years has been the most prominent figure in Canadian political life.Ina few days these mortal remains will be laid in the silent city of the dead; his familiar figure will no longer be seen 1n its accustomed haunts, his voice will no lopger be heard in stern debats or friendly conversation\u2014he will be a memory of the past.The world of Canadian politics and business, despite the disturbance of anticipated complications, will in due time get into its accustomed channels and moye aloug as if nothing had happened.Yet for a time there will be a blank in Canadian public life, and Sir John Macdonald will not only fill a large space in Canadian history but will live long in ths memory of the Canadian people.The Herald has uniformly bean opposed to the political party led by Sir Jobn Macdonsld, and it has often felt itself called upon to criticise and condemn many features of his political policy and methods.But in view of the loss the country has sustained by his death, The Herald begs to pay its tribute of appreciation to the value of the gervices he has rendered this Canada of ours.THE CAPITAL IN MOURNING, Flage at Half Mast\u2014The City Enshrouded in Gloom.FROM OUR OWN REPORTER.Orrawa, June 7.\u2014The citizens of the Capital hear to-day the slowly measured tolling of all the city bells, and as they toll, and toll, and toll, all other sounds are unheeded, if not unheard.The death knell strikes in solemp, mournful cadence on every ear, and persistently there flashes across the retina of every eye the image of one of the many thousand flags, drooping at half-mast above the sorrdwing city.The week of weary watching is at an end, and all men mourn because Sir John Macdonald has ceased to live, He Lives and Nothing More, At eight o'clock last night I left Earns- cliffe for the last time in the Premiers life.There was nothing then to say except that the dying man still lived.That was the doctors\u2019 latest announcement at that hour\u2014\u2018he lives and nothing more,\u201d At last the shades of the summer evening began fo fall and as they deepened inch by inch the darker shadow of Death hovering over the house of Earns- cliffe slowly settled ob the sick room,and as the tower clock struck nine a tremor geized the frame of the prostrate Premier.It was the first sign of the cruel chill that changes \u201cthis pleasing, anxious being\u201d into a cold corpse of clay.The tremor ceased ; the breathing became less labored and more regular; Dr.Powell summoned all the weeping household to the side of Sir John\u2019s bed ; intently they watched the sleeper; the last struggle was over and the angel of peace had come to meet the dread demon of death; the brave spirit had surrendered, but still the soul of the sleeper did not hasten to depart; the last \u201clonging, lingering look\u201d into the faces of the beloved ones occupied afull hour, and then for many minutes the pulse stopped and started, stopped and started again, and at 10:15 it ceased to beat forever.Unconscious 24 Hours, Dr.Powell says the dead man was practically unconscious for 24 hours preceding death.For the greater portion of this time Le was in a state of complete coma.The doctor alse asserts that the end was absolutely painless, There cannot be said to have been in this case what is ordinarily termed \u201clast moments.\u201d What with other men would be called dying minutes was with 8ir John long hours.The battle with the grim enemy was prolonged for nearly a whole week.Could any form of death have been more welcome ?In those days of calm repose thers seemed nothing so very terrible even in the King of Terrors.For Sir John it was only à ,transition, the dignified exit from this vale of tears and turmoils.The Whole Country in Mourning.His departure has thrown a feeling of depression over the whole country.Men must shudder at the sight of the spectre that beckons to the grave, and when a popular leader dies the sentiment of sympathy for the bereaved ones and the great sense of Joss is all the more abiding and profound because it is shared by all the people.From every side come evidences that the party strife is now forgotten, I was in No.6 in the House of Com- death was first made there.Politics, of course, was the topic of the night.The effect of the fatal news in the Conservative room was both saddening and disheartening.This can be truly said without a taint of political prejudice.The Government party, as a whole, are sinesrely mourning their great loss, They often paraphrase now the plaint of the Bard of Avon and exclaim: \u201c I'ake him all 1n all we shall not see his like for many a day.\u201d The Hotels Thronged, Outside the Parliamentary circle, too, the effect of last nights tidings was almost as electrical ag the startling announcement made on the night of Friday, May 29.The portico of the Russail House w as again thronged by an anxious crowd, who, having heard so manv rumors during the day, were skeptical of thisgreport and eager to ascertain its truth or fa'sehood.The excitement which had almost subsided during the last few days had again risen to fever heat, How much the interest in Earnscliffe had abated may be judged from the fact that when the messenger trom the sick house had brought the news to the improvised telegraph office in the tent at Earnacliffe, the operator could make no connection with the city wires; and so the news was delivered in London, England, five minutes sooner than in the Canadian House of Commons.The cable message was flashed through the Atlantic O and into the cities of Great Britain 10\" minutes after the Premier breathed his last.Thousands of Messages Sent In Every Direction.Soon, however, the net work of wires that unite all the distant Provinces of Canada were tingling with a rapid threnody, of which the theme was Sir John Macdonald\u2019s name.Despatches received here at 11 o'clock from Toronto, Hamilton and London, related that in these cities the church bells were then tolling a solemn refrain to the knell that first rang from the tower of Ottawa\u2019s City Hall.Eulogies in the House.To-morrow the House will meet and the panegyrics will be \"delivered to the memory of the great and unforgotten dead.A strange anomaly is presented by the fact that on the day when the tributes of Parliament will be offered to the memory of a departed member and minister, another man, not a member nor a parliamentary servant, should be summoned to appear at the bar of the House to listen, not to praise, but to the gravest censure of that august tribunal.But the popular mind has forgotten those events of ordinary politics and the national gaze is now attracted to the scene that will occur when the obsequies of the Prime Minister take place.The Governor-General and the members of the Cabinet will lead in the funeral march; the minute guns will boom; and the highest ngiitary honors will attest that ' \u201cThe paths of glory lead but to the grave,\u201d Description of the Casket, The casket is ot rolled steel, rosewood finish, with massive oxidized silver handles extending the whole length of each side and at each end.Rouud th» outer edge of the top is a scroll work of foliage, The lifting panels are fastened with handsome knoos; the lifts themselves being in the shape of a wheel with a pair of folded wings.The interior is upholstered in white silk, festooned with cords.It is an exact facsimile of President Garfield\u2019s.The shell is of polished oak, with oxidized silver handles.Though in no sense a military funeral, all the military of Ottawa will be represented in the cortege.The corps are the Governor General's Foot Guards, tue Princess Louise Dragoon Guards, the 43rd Battalion, and the Artillery.The troops will be under command of Major Sherwood,and Col.Smith,deputy sergeant ofthe House of \u2018ommorz 8, Col, Smith has telegraphed to the Mayor of.Kingston, notifying him that the cortege leaving the Senate at 4 p.m.on Wednesday will arrive in the Limestone City that night and the last procession will take place from the City Hall there atl p.m.on Thursday to the family burial plot, where the late Premier's father, mother, sisters andlfirst wife are already interred.Mayor Birkett has summoned the City Council for 10:30 to-morrow morning to pass resolutions of condolence and if necessary to issue a proclamation asking the citizens to observe the day of the funeral as a solemn day and close and crape their stores along the line of route.Everything is placed in readiness for the tiring of the minute guns along the route of the procession from St.Alban\u2019s Church on Daly-street to the C.P.R.station, a distance of over a mile, and a second funeral train will leave the capital on Thursday, to take mourners who wish to see the last rites in Kingston.The gifts of floral contributions from every part of the Dominion are almost innumerable, The marquis of Landsdowne has sent an order to a local florist for a magnificent wreath and splendid collection of potted plants.It is expected that every Conservative club and organization in the Dominion will send delegations or attend in body at the funeral.\u2018What Was Said in the Churches, SPECIAL TO THE HERALD, OrTAwa, June 7.\u2014In all the churches in this city tbe pastors referred in feeling language to the death of the Premier.Rev.Father Pallier,of St.Joseph\u2019s Church, and Rev.T.W, Winfield, of Emmanuel, urged upon their congregations the necessity of taking the life and death of the great statesman as one of their guides through life.From his character, said Mr.Winfield, much is to be learned.SirJobn\u2019s genial nature and kindness of heart was spoken of by both clergymen, Under the pillared tower of the Dominion Methodist Church the great organ was swelling the mournful sympathy of the Dead March in Baul as the congregation entered and took their places in the pews, The altar, pulpit and galleries were draped in black.Rev.Dr.Hunter preached the sermon, during which he said that it was one of the joys of those who remained behind that, under the shadow of the great sorrow which they felt, they could remember the noble character of the man who was gone and look forward to meeting bim in Heaven.\u2018 Britain and Britain's Queen, a loyalty which he (the preacher) cherished in his own heart so fervently that his prayer to God was that no other flag than Britain's should ever float over his home or grave.An immense crowd gathered in St.Alban\u2019s Church, where the sermon was preached by the Rev.J.J, Bogart.He was visibly affected during the course of his sermon, in which he eutogized the dead Premier.In the Baptist, Congre- gatianal and other churches there was not a minister that did not refer in deepest tones of sorrow to the end of Canada\u2019s Premier.THE NEWS IN MONTREAL, Telegraph and Newspaper Offices Besieged With Anxious Imqulirers, For over a week all Canada has watched anxiously for the latest news from Earnscliffe.In this city the excitement was intense, Liberal or Tory, all felt the same, Would he die, would not the man who had such extraordinary vitality still stave off the dread angel, As the reports came in some deshairing, othezs more hopeful, crowds gathered at telegraph and newspaper offices, as they noted the tremendous struggle of mortal man against .the infinite, sometimes the strong will appearing to conquer even death; so the hopes and fears of the people rose and fell.Notwithstanding the fact that almost everybody had given up hope, when the news reached the city at about 10.30 everyone who heard it stopped aghast.Could hereally;be aead?It seemed almost incredible that be who for such a long time had occupied so prominent a position in Canadian politics could at last be dead.Everywhere, groups of people® stood talking over the sad tidings.Business men stopped in the exercise of their avocation.All were interested.Over the city the news spread, carrying with it a feeling that for the nence seemed to act like a pall spread over the land.Never wasadeath announcement received with more genuine regret than when the citizens of Montreal heard that the Premier of Canada was no more.In the Churches Yesterday.In the churches the eyes of the various congregations were turned toward their ministers\u2019 faces in expectation of some utterance in reference to the decease of the man who has been foremost amongst Canadians for so many years.A great hush, a feeling ot awe, was over everything, death, the invincible, had won again.In tones of deepestreverence did the numerous clergymen refer to the deceased.Perhaps never in the history of Montreal have more solemn services been held than those held yesterday.ENGLISH OPINION, Sir John\u2019s Death May Prove a Disaster for Canada, SPECIAL TO THE HERALD.New York, June 7.\u2014The Tribune's London correspondent cables last night: Much hasbeen said in the House of Commons and elsewhere about Sir John Macdonald.There ia a general feeling among English of all parties tbat his death may prove a disaster for Canada and a disaster from the English point of view.They recognize at any rate his great services, the leaders of both parties have spoken of him in a tone never used here except about a man whose importance is felt to be imperial.He is regarded as the creator of the Dominion of Canada and the man who bas done more than all others to keep that great colony loyal to the Crown.Be the merits or demerits of his domestic policy what they may, English gratitude to him 1s profonnd and the Queen\u2019s messages of enquiry and regret express, as they so often do, the sentiment of the people.THE NEW PREMIER.What The Globe and Other Toronto Dailies Have to Say, SPECIAL TO THE HERALD.Toroxto, June 8.\u2014The Globe to-day publishes this editorial under the caption, \u201cThe New Premier\u201d \u201cThough Sir Charles Tupper has been telegraphed for, the present impression is that Sir John Thompson will become First Minister.Sir John is a zealous Roman Catholic.This, coupled with nis connection with the Jesuit Estates Bill, does not recommend him to the Orange body,which constitutes the Old Guard of the Tory Party in Ontario, hence it has occurred to the party managers to secure Mr.McCarthyito tame him and to cage him by giving him office.His presence would, it is thought, induce the Orangemen to support Sir John Thompson, although manifestly he would have to.put aside his Equal Rights ideas and adopt that Toryism against which he has lately protested with ail his might.Itis an ingenious device for meeting the ultra protest element.Whether Mr.McCarthy will consent to efface himself.whether if he were to do so the Orangemen and Equal Rights men would approve of the sacrifice; whether, even if he and they agreed that it was the best thing to do, they could prevent friction and collision from arising between the body of thought which they represent and the antithetic element of which Sir Jobn [Thompson is an exponent, are questions which time alone can determine.The Old Man now no more, made an excellent potash from bringing together the oil and the water, but it is donbtful if the qualities which he possessed exist in Mr, McCarthy.The Mail in course of a three column editorial on the dead Premier, says: \u201cIt must be left to history which applies in due time the test to all men\u2019s works, to form sn impartial estimate of the remarkable figure who hae just passed away.The fiercenegs of the party conflict, the injustice meted out to men and methods, the scantiness of the materials on which to base a fair judgment with regard to some events of his life, render it impossible to expect at this etage of the country\u2019s bereavement an acc urate measure of the loss we have sustained.Yet there are many features in Bir John\u2019s career which already stamp the man and lend to him a character which will ever attach t> his name, The eminence to which he rose and the fame which he enjoyed not only in his own country, but in Great Britain and the United States, are forcible tasti- mons when the announcement of the | The deceased statesman was loyal to | Continued on Page Eight WHO WILL IT BE?\u2014_\u2014 Aspirants for the Leadership.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 A CABINET MEETING HELD.No Intimation from the Governor General.WILL SIR CHAS.TUPPER COME The Rumor Current that He Has Been Sent for is D ied.\u2014\u2014 TO THROW SIR HECTOR OVERBOARD.The Article in La Presse Alleged to Have Been Inspired by Chaplean\u2014Le Canada\u2019s Sovere Comments, FROM OUR OWN REPORTER.OTTAWA, June 7\u2014The Ministry is dissolved and there can be no more Cabinet meetings until a new Premier calls a new administration.A meeting of the old Cabinet took place, however, to-day.The gathering, which was held at the residence of Sir Hector Langevin, was a purely informal one.Besides the ex- Ministers © who held portfolios, Hon.Frank Smith was present.The principal business considered was the arrangements for the funeral of Sir John Macdonald.Ledy Macdonald, it is stated, did not at firet approve of any public pageant, but wished the obsequies of her hus- bard to be as simple as would be compatible with the high office of the dead statesman.She was, however, dissuaded from this view _ the ex-ministers.No intimation has yet been received from the Governor-General, as to his choice for the premiership.The rumor that Sir Charles Tupper nas been sent for has again been positively denied by a member of the Government.Yet everyone expects that the High Commissioner will appear unbidden on the scene, The statement most discussed in Ottawa is that made by La Presse, of Montreal, suggesting the formation of a Cabinet with Sir Hector Langevin thrown overboard, Over 20 members of Parliament, seen by The Herald to-day, agreed in the opinion that this article had been inspired by Mr.Chapleau.The evidence accumrts lates that the feud between the two Blue leaders is about to break out anew.Le Canada, the French Canadian Tory organ here, comments severely on this article in La Presse.In 1ts last issue le Canadasays: \u201cLa Presse published yesterday a slate containing the names of a new cabinet and throws Sir Hector overboard.We may remind La Presss that this game can be played by two,\u201d The crowning of Dalton McCarthy by the Chaplesu organ is also considersd very significant.With the leader of the Equal Righters as a colleague, the Secretary of State is now regarded as one of the most formidable candidates for a first place in the cabinet.With all the dissensions now existing there can it seems be only one course open to the Government party, that is to stand by the late Ministry and promptly suppress the ambitious aspirants, Whether Thompson or Langevin be temporarily chosen, Hon, Mr.Abbott is almost certain to be called in to add dignity to the new regime.Despite the melancholy circumstance that gives rige to all these rivalries some of the contestants persist in provoking ridicule The most grotesque affair is Mr.Cock- burn\u2019s candidature for a Cabinet seat.No one ever dreams of the senior Toronto member as a possible Privy Councillor except The Ottawa Free Press, which in this connection satirically publishes his portrait alongside those of Tupper, Thompson and Langevin.Yet Mr.Cockburn in an interview takes the whole matter seriously and poses as a champion of Ontario\u2019s rights.To summarize Parliamentary opinion bere, it may be said that the members of the late administration will be sent back to power as a make-shift cabinet, But this will be an evanescent scheme, which must compass as soon as the \u201cantiques\u201d Carling and Caron are dismissed, as dismissed they must be, The trouble will begin when the vacant places must be filled and a score of applicants offer themselves for each seat.\u2018The ex-Ministers will meet again tomorrow morning and come to some agreement as to the length of time for which they will ask Parliament to adjourn, \u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 Awaked by a Drunken Mob, SPECIAL TO THE HERALD.Corumeus, O., June 7.\u2014The north bound train on the Pennsylvania line, was attacked by a drunken mob just aft:r pulling out of Seymour at 9 d\u2019eleck to-night, knives were drawn snd used freely, Chas.Cuttinger was badly used up, a8 were also two strangers.The train was in charge of Harry Smith, conductor, who placed four men under arrest here and lodged them in jail, RAILWAY PROF ¢ TY IN DANGER.A Bush Fire at Black ke Spreads With Alarming 1%?tdity, SPECIAL TO TH.(A ERALD.SHERBROOKE, June 7.\u2014A bush fire at Black Lake to-day communicated itself to houses on the west side of the railway track, and owing to the high wind and lack of appliances to stop its pro- grees, quickly spread.At the hour of writing, from 30 to 35 houses are totally destroyed, Amongt them the stores of Roberge & Frere, in operation only two weeks.Also of Dion, Vaillan- court, Leblanc and Michand, Le- maiteres Hotel and Fournier's liquor store, with the American Asoes- tos Co.\u2019s store-house are also destroyed, only three buildings on that side of the railway track are saved.A Southeastern Railway car was burnt with some bales of hay.The bush on both sides of the Ford Mines store is now on fire and will likely extend to the village unless rain should come.\u2014 QUEBEC JOTTINGS, Thieves Enter the Crown Lands Office and Secure $150 Worth of Plunder, FROM OUR OWN COBRESPONDENT.Quesec, June 7.\u2014Thieves entered the Crown Lands office in the Parliament House on Friday and stole $50 in cash and $100 in stamps.Mr Simeon Lelievre has entered an action in the Superior Court against L.P.Pelletier to set aside the will of the late Lelievre.The

had a long interview on Friday with Hon.Messrs.Garneau and Robidoux, in the former\u2019s office, relative to the construction of an iron bridge across the Chaudiere River, near St.George Beauce.The acting Premier and his colleague listened courteously to the proposals and promised to give the matter their favorable consideration.On Friday morning Lt.-Col Montizam- bert, commandant of B.Battery, received information from Montreal that two members of the Battery named Privates Digman and Ward who recently deserted had been arrested in that city.Sergent Rainbault and Privates Kaine and Gauthier

June 7.\u2014Information was received here a short time ago to the effect that the warship Edgar would svc- ceed the Bellerophon on this stationg Vice-Admiral Hopkins, however, according to recent advices rea ceived by the noyal authorities, has de« cided not to make the Edgar his flagship; but instead will sail on H.M.S Hercules a ship twice as powerful as the Belle rophon at present on this

was grand and just the thing for record breaking.The attendance would have undoubtedly been a great deal larger had it not been for the Shamrock-Ottawa jacrosse match, but agit was it exceeded a thousand, and they were pleased with the afterncon\u2019s sport.The track was in excellent condition or the day\u2019s events, and too much cannot be said of the management for the way in which they had everything ar- renged both for competitors and specta- tois.The first event on the day\u2019s program was the hundred yards dash : The first heat went to A.Leithhead of the M.A.À.A., he winning very easily by ut least four feet.E.Courtemanche, in the second heat, did not bave it all his own way, as &myth, of the M.À.À.À., pressed him very clcse and he only won by a foot.Thompson, who was allowed a handicap of six feet, refused to take advantage and started from the scratch.The third heat was almost a repetition of the second, Tarnbull winning, followed closely ky Lockerby.The trial heats were very close, the winners being Carr and Smyth.When the bell rang there were four starters on band and all were bent on winning.Carr showed up wonderfully and the spectators held their breath as he sped along the track, but on reaching the tape a winner they broke forth into prolonged cheeis and gave an extra roar when the time of 10 seconds was hupg out.Final eat: HCarr, M AAA,

struggle to get to the tape first, but of no avail.When the starter sent them off at the crack of of the pistol, Paris went to the front before 500 yards had been traversed.\u2018Waldron then let bimself out and the race began in earnest.When 220 yards from the tape, Waldron and Paris were even, but tha spurt that Paris put on at the start showed on him at the finish, \u2018Waldron winning by

sides, especially the Crescents, was loose, and muffs were innumerable.The Clippers need practice, and the Crescents will have to put up a better game to win their next match on the schedule.The score

Capitals have the Beat of the Play but are Defeated by a Sooreef Three te Two\u2014 A Disgraoceful Scene on the Shamrock Groands-Games up West\u2014The Juntor Matches in Montreal\u2014Notes.Why pools on the Shamrock-Ottawa match should bave sold in favor of the home team is hard to understand, as they had made & poor showing against Cornwall on May 24, and the abilities of the Ottawa team for this year, previous to yesterday, were unknown, consequently the Senators must have been greatly underrated and the betting, what there was, of seven to ten was very hazardous.The visitors proved that they had a remarkably strong team this season, an mprovement over last year, and moreover, ought to have a sure claim fcr tl pennant of 1891.The weather on Saturday was glorious nd about three thousand persons made heir way to the Shamrock grounds to witness thefirst match in the new Senior League series.lt was a poor beginning, nasmuch as roughness characterised be game, and the shameful manner in which in one instance the players lost control cf their tempers and sought fight did anything but make a favorable impression on the spectators.The Shamrock team was not an improvement over that of two weeks ago.There were three new additions to\u2019 the team, viz Kelly, Macdonnell and Foley, the two former of last year\u2019s Crescent team and the laiterrom the Junior Shamrocks.Kelly, in his position in centre field, is in the right place, and considering tnat this was tbe first senior match in which they played they made a very creditable showing, but will require continued practice and training fo be able ty cope with the old players.Reddy made his first appearance of the season Letween the flage, but he was not in trim to play as only one practice this year did not reduce his weight, and the work in which Le was obliged to participate soon told.McKenna played a splendid game,as did Duggan, Brophy, Dwyer and Moore, though at times a few misses were made.Tansey on the home did the best work, and Cefferty was up to last year\u2019s form, but it was Neville\u2019s day off.The latter is generally reliable in passing and catching, but there was something radically wrong on this occasion and frequently good openings af the Ottawa end were not taken 4 advantage of on this account.The Shamrocks, though they tried to play a keen game, were not in it with the Ottawas acd what was most conspicuous by its absence was that team play for which they bad become famous.The passing was neither fast nor certain and many advantages were given the Senators on these points.The men in the field also played loose and seemed never to have their opponents covered.The result was that after tbe first game the home team was rat led and had to play defence most of the time.The Ottawa men were fast and their combined play was the means of scoring.Kent, Crown, Druhan, Mc.Conaghy, McKay, Bissonnette and Carson were the stars and they putupa great game.It was nearly 3.450\u2019clock when Referee John Lewis called the men together and after giving them the usual lecture they took up their positions on the field as follows: SHAMROCK GOALJ Reddy.: Brophy.Carson,

Kelly drawing the ball and throwing ip on the Ottawa goal.It was kept there for a few moments, but the combined efforts of Tansev, McDonnell and Neville failed to bring about a score.The goal was cleared Cpt who passed to Crown and an attad was made on the Shamrock (goal.The defence work of Mc- Kenna and Brophy was here required and soon the rubber went to the opposite end.Tansey and Cafferty made several quick passes awaiting an opening and the latter made a splendid piece of play in dodging Clendinnen and shooting in.It was a neat shot, too swift for Mc- Conaghy and the umpire\u2019s hand went up.During this game the fielders had little or nothing to do, as the ball was kept almost constantly in the Ottawa defence field.Time of game, 3 minutes.THE SECOND GAME was characteristic for looseness on the part of the 8bamrock field, pegli- gence in covering men, and also for rough play.Kelly again succeeded in getting away with the ball at the face and landed it at the Ottawa end, but the Shamrock home were slow to take advantage of a good opening and the sphere was put out to side field, where Crown captured it, and, with the assistance of Thomas, worked it down field.A tussle followed, Foley coming out with the ball, but it was thrown over the fence.At the face Carson hopped away with it and lobbed in on Shamrock goal, when Duggan cleared.The rubber next was in the vicinity of the Ottawa goal and Cafferty endeavored to bring it .n when he was checked and the pal went to the fence, where in trying to get it Moore and Coulson used little roughnees towar.s each other, re] sulting in Coulson striking Moore in the face with his fist, which the latter returned and they grasped holds only to be separated by outsiders.The referee nos having seen the fracas was inclined to be lenient and allowed them both to continue play.After the face the rubber travelled to the Shamrock goal, cleared by Reddy and next handled by Kelly 1891.wko threw in, but Druhan got it away to the side and McKay put down field.Carson then made one of his swooping runs acd passed to Goodwin, whos shot for goal was wide.Duggan put ths ball in the safe ground and for a momeat or two end to end play followed.The Shamrock fielders were not feeding the home and seemed to have lost control of their heads as the Ottawas were continually uncovered.The ball got worked down to the Shamrock end and a hot shot from Kent was stopped by McKenna within five feet of the flags and thrown to centre.In & tussle tiere it was thrown to the side, with Crown and Duggan after it.Crown was accidentally struck on the leg and fell to tbe ground, Time was called and when the players gathered around the little player used some very forcible language to Duggan, which the latter could not stand, and lesing control of his temper made a plunge at Crown, but Kent received the blow instead.Several of the players were in the mejee and the crowd rushed out, indicating that a free fight might be indulged in.Police and Shamrock efficials, afler cousiderable trouble, cleared the field, and then the referee got in his work by raling of both Duggan and Crown.Afier the face which followed the ball went to the Shamrock goal and the game was defence for tbe home team tor several minutes.Kent and Thomas tried hard to sccre, and the Shamrock defence hustled Lard to stave off another game.Mc- Kenna finally cleared and up went tLe ball to Cafferty, who paesed to Neville who miseed, however, and Carson bad it down field again.Dwyer, who was playing a stern game, tcok it away from two Ottawa men and dropped it in the Ottawa defence.Clendinnen as usual bstted it aside and Bissonnette carried down field, where McKenna, Dwyer, Reddy and Brophy were kept in hot water for awhile batiling against the Ottawa onslaught.For some time then tbe game continued defence for Sham- reck, but finally McKenna carried the sphere off to the side, shot up and Cafferty tried to score from a pass from Neville but was wide.The field by this time waa apparently rattled and the Ottawa men had the ball all to tbem- selves and lost no time in working it down to,their home, where Carson passed to Kent and the latter shot from the side, scoring.Time, 30 minutes.THE THIRD GAME began with a brighter look for the Sham- rocss and a determination on their part to score.At the beginning they played a rush game which was not kept up long, and ; as in the preceding game looseness prevailed.Kelly got the pall at the face again but a scramble ensued and it was struck down the field to Dwyer, who secured it, ran up field and shotin.It wes a close shave for a score but Mc- Conaghy managed to knock itto ons side where Druhan cleared.Foley stopped a splendid shot made by Carson for goal, and the rubber rolled to Thomas Twho passed over to Carson who scored.Time.6 minutes.THE FOURTH GAME wes started after the teams had a long rest, and Captain Polan thought it advisable to change McKenna trom point te home, moving the other defence players back one place.This seemed to bei- ters matters as the Shamrocks played a much stronger game, and the fielders especially picked up considerably, yet the same noticeable neglect in covering men was adhered to.Keily was successful again in drawing the ball and passed to Foley who gave to Neville, and an attack was made on the Ottawa goal.Clendin- nen and McKay worked the rubber away.It was sent tothe Shamrock end only to be returned by Dwyer, whose drop in on goal was nearly successtal for a score.McKenna then tried to score when the men were all crowded in on goal, and his shot failed.The rubber was sent whizzing to the other end, and the Shamrock defence having been drawn out Kent received the ball from Bissonnette and scored, Time, 7 minutes.THE FIFTH GAME also was of short duration.It was Kelly's ball again, and as in the previous games it first travelled to the Ottawa goal, which was soon put out of danger by Druhan.Foley got it at centre aud returned it.There was à good opening to score, but Neville lost the rubber to Coulson and it was put among the Ottawa home.A shot by Good win came near telling, as the ball struck the pole and bounded to the side.Druhan was after it and shot again, to be stopped by Duggan, who swiped 1t to centre.Kelly brought it to the Ottawa end and twice did Tansey shoot for goals,both being stopped Foley made two splendid catches at centre field and fed the home, but it Was iruitless,as things were going wreng way, and at last, when the sphere was put down field, Kent carried it in and acored.Time, 5 minutes.There remained only a few minutes to play after rest, and meanwhile the people were leaving the grounds, as all hopes of the Shamrocks even scoring another game were abandoned.However, the players came out once more, and shortly after the face Crown injured his already sore leg necessitating bis removal from the field, and to even sides Reddy retired.His) position was filled by McKenna.End to end play was the feature of the game, and after four minutes had run off on Referee Lewls\u2019 timepiece, the whistle blew, calling time, and the match thus resulted in a victory for the S:na- tors of four games to one.Capitals vs, Cornwalls, FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.CoRNWALL, June 6.\u2014Whatever blame may be attached to the several clubs which were instrumental in damping the interest in lacrosse through their vote as to the admitting of the Capitals of Ottawa, there is no doubt but that this team will make it decidedly warm for its various opponents before the season is closed.On Saturday they played against Cornwall, and right in the Factory Town they gave the home team such a whipping that it is safe to venture the assertion otthe above paragraph.Certainly the Capitals did not win as far as scoring the games were concerned, but when you talk about the match and ask who proved themselves the best men, there 18 not the slightest chance for a denial of the statement thatthe Cornwalls were notin it.There may, however, be excuses, probably there are and the first wiil doubtless be that the home team were not in practice and were altogether unprepared ior the splendid game whica the visitors put up.It was a great day for Cornwall and the people turned out in large numbers to witness the game.They had been looking forward to the visit of a number of players who would appear upon the field prepared to win, expecting to win but doomed to disappointment.So it proved but the people had not expected to see the young club turn upon the old- timers and play them to a standstill at every point.The Cornwall team was sstounded at the way in which they were met and from the time the ball was faced until she end of the match it must ] their have been paintfally evident to them [ have that urtis they «- + mestiy to work and improve themselves both individually and as a team they are no match for the Capitals.About half an hour after the advertised Mme the players romped upon the field and as ever in Cornwall, the home team was givem five hundred per cent more applause that their opponents.They are & strapping set of follows these Capitals aad in comparison with the Cornwall men are quite able to hold own both as\u201d tw- physique running and staying qualities.Whenever a Cornwall man succeeded in getting the ball he knew better than to hold it, or try to pass his check unless a very good chance presented itself.1t wasacase of hustle and get hold of the rubber and let it go again.In the latter case the home team was successful, but a8 to hustling\u2014well, they dide\u2019t expect to ram up against such a dozen men, 8 the result was that they had to take a back ground im | everything but the actual scoring of games, and even in this they count one as the result of a fluke, When the referee took bis place upon be fieldy the following men were gin po sition : and CAPITAL (oAL.AshenAnrst.Me Cutehe

finished.FIRST GAME.Scarcely had the ball been faced when a pretty lively scrimmage took place right in front of the Cornwall goal.It was a close shave and but for a bad throw on the part of Quinn, the game would have lasted about 30 seconds.Though he missed this chance both he, Green and Murphy played splendid lacrosse and fought the home defence with an energy which was worthy of far more recognition from the grand stand than they received.Crites and Carpenter for the first two minutes did fine work and then they went to pieces.\u2018Lhers was a little more playing around center field and as the Capital defence had not much work to do it may easily be imagined that the game could not last very long and must, baring accidents, eventually end in favor of the visitors.Soit proved; just 8% minutes play and Murphy,by a splendid shot, scored for the Capitals.SECOND GAME.Cornwall defense went to pieces almost as soon a8 {he game commenced.Green and Kitchum fired hot shots upon the home goal until it looked as though the game would be a question of seconds.The centre men had hardly anything to do except an occasional endeavor to stop a ball which was passing overhead.In this they were seldom successful, for the play was almost exclusively at the ends of the field and in close proximity to the flags.It was, however, the Capitals\u2019 game from the start and Green made the shot which scored after four minntes\u2019 play.THIRD GAME.There was no play ia this game worthy of speclal mention.It was a case of hard luck for the Capitals, and anything but good lacrosse on the pert cf the Cornwalls.When occasign- aily the rabber hovered around the Capital goals, the splendid play of Fraser, Patterson and James preventad an early win for the Ccrnwalls.The bulk of the work was done in the neigbborhood of the bome goal, but fate seemed against the visitors.Crites secured the rubber from a prolonged scrimmage, and immediately let it go to the other end of the field; a few quick passes and Danagher secared it.He shot and Ashenhurst cleverly stoppel tte ball; unfortunately it lodged in hisstick,and in attempting to clear thesphera it dropped from his crosse.and rolled between the flags after 10 minutes\u2019 play.FOURTH GAME, This was certainly the best game of the match, particularly from a team standpoint.\u2018To pick out the players for special mention would be rather a difficult task.With the exception of per- baps two men the Cornwall team braced up wonderfully and played for a time in something approaching their old time form.Tbe Capitals, however, played with à vim and dash that did them great credit, and from start to finish of the game they had the best of it.McCutcheon nnally scored for the Cornwallis.FIFTH GAME.Realizing that this was probably the last game that could be played, both teams went in to win, The grand stand grew excited aud bets were freely offered and as readily taken by the admirers of the Capitals, who had come to see the match.\u2018The game was well in progress when Gieen was knocked down, presumably by Riviere.\u2018When Referee Pollock ruled Riviere off the field Hughes at once made a kick, andor 10 minutes the two teams argued as though their very lives depended upon the final result of the ruling.Hughes said \u2018 he too would go off it Riviere was sent to his room and the referee testing the truth of his statement by standing by his decision.Hughes though better of his statement and again took his place.At the time of the knock down the Corn- walls appeared to be thoroughly winded and the opinion of umbiased minds was that had the Capitals at once allowed Hughes to have his way and let Reviere keep his position the home team would \u2018have had a defeat to record instead of a victory.When the game was again started it was very loose and was won for Cornwall by Black after nine minutes actual play.SIXTH GAME.But a few minutes was left in which ta finish the match and neither side scored befoie the referee\u2019s whistle sounded.Comment From Cornwall, SPECIAL TO THE HERALD, CorNwWALL, June 7.\u2014The result of the Capital-Cornwall match here to-day was à great surprise to the many

DEAD STATESMAN.The death of Sir John Macdonald removes from Canadian public life its most striking personality and most prominent figure.His long and, from the party standpoint, successful political career, the great services be rendered the country despite the objectionable and indefensible features of his policy and methods, the lengthened period during which he occupied the Premiership, the honors bestowed upon him by his country and his sovereign, and the fact that he literally died in harness, ali combine to make him the most prominentand remarkable Canadian of his time.He had few personal enemies.He had many warm personal friends among his political opponents, whose antagonism in the political arena was based wholly on political and public grounds.The geniality of his nature and his freedom from the stiff, icy dignity that public men in high positions so often manifest; the readiness with which he could unbend at any time and in any place to greet the humblest citizen; the willingness with which he could listen to the representations of those who waited upon him and the sauvity with which he could ssy \u201cno,\u201d when called upon to refuse a request, rendered him a favorite with all who came in contact with him.If is not therefore matter of surprise thateverywhere, among -all classes and parties, intelligence of Sir -Jobn\u2019s illness and death should be heard and spoken of with sincere and genuine expressions of sorrow and regret.\u201co much has been written and published respecting Sir John Macdonald\u2019s public life\u2014his long record of political triumpbs, the disasters which sometimes swept across his path, the great political movements and and important parliamentary measures With which he has been identified, and the development in many directions which Canada has undergone since his entry into political life\u2014that it is not necessary in this article to recite in detail or to amplify at any length the.salient points of his public career, Whatever more is required to be dons in ! that direction may well be left to Canadian historians.The death of so prominent a public man must be regarded as a great loss to the country, even keeping in view the fact that under the most favorable circumstances his public career could not be greatly prolonged, and that the Sapreme power which pers mitted his removal will in due time fill the blank his death has made.The death of any public man who has been closely identified with the interests and progress of the country is a great loss, in proportion to the length and value of his services and the influence for good he has exercised in moulding the destinies of the commonwealth.And yet the blanks thus made will in some way or other be filled.As the Hon, Alex.Mackenzie remarked in 8 public address in the Maritime Provinces some ninetesn years ago, in referring to men whose names had been introduced by ons of the speakers, \u201cWhen the Mackenzies and Macdonalds and Blakes have all passed away, Canada will still make progrees, the Government of the country will still be carried on; all that is required is that the people should be true to themselves and the historic past, stand by sound moral and political principles, and place in positions of power and responsibility men who will patriotically hold the public interests above the claims ot party and self-aggrandizement.\u201d These are sound sentiments based on sound principles, which should animate tbe Feop.e of Canada of both parties, even While the country is called upon to deplore the loss the country sustains in having great public men removed by death.\u201cIt is the Cons:rvative party which \u2018will, for a time at least, realize most keenly the loss they have sustained in he death of Sir John Macdonald.He was a great leader of men\u2014a virtaal dictator in his party.His followers had anhounded confidence in his general- ghip, and that confidence was not often misplaced.And yet that very excessive - confidence and the unswerving submission to his beheets which it secured, contributed to making theConservative party -{ the instrument of one-man power, which, now that & is broken, leaves the party practically leaderles+, there being apparently no man i: Parliament whose ability, experience and influence will be equal to the task of reconciling conflicting elements and rallying all sections of the party around him, Conservatives deplore theloss of Sir John Macdonald, because they admired, revered and trusted him as a great man and skilfal leader, but also because it will be impossible, perhaps for years to come, to secure as leader one who will in all respects fill the place he so long occupied.One by one the men who were promi nent in Canadian political life a; the time of confederation are passing away.Of the 33 delegates who met in Quebec in October, 1865, to consider the qpes- tion of the union of the provinces, the re were (welve representatives of old Canz- da, five from Nova Scotia, seven from New Brunswick, seven from Prince Edward Island and two from Newfoundland.The survivors of the Canadian delegates are : Sir A.T.Galt, Sir Alexander Campbell, Sir Hector Langevin, Hon.Oliver Mowa and Hen.Wm.Macdoaga!l.Those r maining of the Nova Scotia delegates a © Sir Charles Tupper, Sir A.G.Archibal and Hon.R.B.Dickey.Of the save from New Bruvswick only Sir Leonard Tilley aad Hon.Peter Mitchell sarviv Of the P.E.Island delegates only Ho A.A.Macdonald is now living, and those from Nawfoundiand only Sir Ambrose Shea.The death of Sir John Macdonald serves as a reminder to the surviving \u201cfathers of confederation\u201d that they are in the \u201csere and yellow leaf,\u201d and ere long must follow in the footataps of those who have gone hefora.\u2014\u2014r\u2014 OTTAWA FREE PRESS : When is that bureau of labor statistics to be established ?It is now five years since it was promised.Ask Mr.Chapleau.He had an act passed for the purpose at the last session of Parliament, and an appropriation voted to cover expenses.So the bureau must be established\u2014on paper\u2014but the breath of life bas not been breathed into.it If-Mr.Lepine would ask the Secretary of State why the bureau has not yet come to life, perhaps the latter would say that questions of greater moment are engaging his attention at present.\u2014 EXPLANATIONS IN ORDER, SIR CHARLES TUPPER TO SECRETARY BLAINE: Canada was most anxious to have the freest and most friendly.intercourse with the United States consistent with the interests of both countries and that he should regret very much if Canada and the large number of Canadians in the United States () were driven te the conclusion that they could only look to one party in the United States for free intercourse It is to be presumed Sir Charles Tup- per, in the above declaration, reflected the views of the Government, just as our St.Francois Xavier-street contemporary did when it declared in favor of the fullest measure of reciprocity consistent with our national independence.Now, will the Government come down to particulars and explain what they mean by such a declaration.Some members of the Government have Said that they are quite ready to go beyond reciprocity in natural products.How far?To what extent will it be quite loyal to have reciprocity in natural products, and beyond what point will it be disloyal to carry the principle of reciprocity?The Government should authorize its organs to give the country definite information on these points.The time for dealing in vague generalities haa gone by.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 THE GOVERNMENT'S BLUNDERING Tke Halifax Chronicle announces that the New York Loan and Trust Company bave recently placed on Record in Sydney, C.B., a mortgage of $2,000,000 1n counection with the proposed construc- tiop of the line of railway from Port Hawkesbury to Louisburg and from Louisburg to Sydney.Representatives of the mortgages have just completed an examination of the route, and are thoroughly satisfied with it.Application will he made for the usual subsidies, and it is contemplated that within a short time the company will start to build the road.The company realize the fact that Louisburg is the nearest port and would make the ehortest route | between England and America, with & barbor open all the year round.This announcement once more calla attention to the fact that the route by which the Cape Breton Railway was built, via River St.Deny\u2019s and Grand Narrows, was a huge blunder.For only a short distance does it pass through an agricultural country, but for a considerable distance it passes over a limestone formation, full of sinkholes, where the land is known to show signs af sinking, and is therefore dangerous to the stability of the permanent way.In short the Cape Breton Rail waywas built by the longest,mostcircuitous, least profitable and positively unsafe route, against the public opinion of two-thirds of the population and to please the whim of the M.P.who lives near Grand Narrows \u2014wby, the public can readily infer, This road is 984 miles in length, and up to last year the expanditure on it amounted to $2,982,752, and some $390,- 000 additional ars being asked.This will bring the cost up to nearly $35,000 per mile, and the end is not yet.Had the road been built to Louisburg, and thence to 8ydney by existing lines tbe cost would have been less, a better country would have been traversed, a larger population would have been served, and the long-talked of extension of thel.C.B.to the nearest Canadian port to Great Britain would have been ge- cured.The very fact that this Lonis- burg acheme is being seriously THE MONTREAL HERALD MONDAY revived snd that the usual subsidies are to be asked for, is but another proof that building the Cape DBreton line to Sydney via Grand Narrows was a huge and costly blunder, and that the line dces not in any sense serve the purposes originally contemplated.What a scandalous waste of public money the rail- Way policy of the Dominion Government bas involved.How much longer is such hoge and costly blundering to bs tolerated.\u2014 \u201cMr.BLAINE is surprised,\u201d wrote Minister Pauncefote to the Lord Stanley, ander date of April 5, \u201cthat the Canadian representatives left for Washington after his letter to Sir Charles Tupper.\u201d Both Mr.Blaine and the British Minister will get over their sar- prise when they understani what manner of man Sir Charles Tupper is.\u2014.THE FINANCIAL SITUATION.The expenditure for the year ended June 30,1890, charged to consolidated fund, amounted to $35,994,000.The e-ti- mates for the year ended June 30, 1891, including supplementary estimates, vmounted to $37,234,000.The estimates for the year ending June 30, 1892, -mounted to $36,931,000, and supplementary estimates brought down the «ther day will add $1,624,000 to this amount, making a total for 1891-92 of $38,565,000\u2014and additional supplementary estimates are possible.Evidently tbe Government have no intention of economizing notwithstanding that the revenue for the ten months of the cur- 1ent fiscal year shows a decline of $888, 358, while the expenditure shows an increase of $232,282.The net debt of the Dominion on May 31, was $234,142,372, an increase of $393,036 over what it was at the end of May 1890, it the process indicated by these figures is kept up very much longer Canada will soon reach the end of her financial tether.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014

sickness, further emigration or death also reduced the number of possible claimants, and that more wonderful human ttrailty\u2014absolute forgetfulness of deposited ssessions-\u2014contrived together to leave the bulk of the property on the custodian\u2019s Bands.Under an understood agreement his was always sold at public auction after B given time.Although the contents of some of the trunks were exposed, it was found more in keeping with the public sentiment to sell the trunk unlocked and unopened.The element of curiosity was kept up from time to time by the incautious disclosures of the lucky or knlucky purchaser, and general bidding thus encouraged\u2014except when the speculator rwith the true gambling instinct gave no in- ication in his.face of what was drawn in is lottery.Generally however some suggestion in the exterior of the trunk, a label or initials, some conjectural knowledge of fits former owner or the idea that he might be secretly present in the hope of getting his property back for less than the accumulated dues, kept up the bidding and interest.A modest looking, well worn portinanteau had been just put up at a small opening bid, \u2018when Harry Flint joined the crowd.The young man had arrived a week before at (San Francisco, friendless and penniless, and thad been forced to part with his own effects to procure necessary food and lodging while looking for employment.In the irony of fate that morning, the proprietors of a «dry good store, struck with his good looka and manners, had offered him a situation if he could make himself more presentable to their fair clients.Harry Flint was gazing half abstractedly, half hopeless 1y, at the portmanteau without noticing the auctioneer\u2019s persuasive challenge.In his abstraction he was not aware that the auctioneer's assistant was also looking at him curiously, and that possibly his dejected and half clad appearance had excited the attention of one of the cynical by-standers, who was exchanging a few words with the assistant.He was however recalled to himself a moment later when the portmanteau was knocked down at $15 and considerably startled when the assistant placed it at his feet with a grim smile.\u201cThat\u2019s your property, Fowler, and I reckon you look as if you wanted it bad.\u201d \u201c\u2019But\u2014there\u2019s some mistake,\u201d stammered Flint.\u201cI didn\u2019t bid.\u201d \u201cNo, but Tom Flynn did for ycu.You see 1 spotted you from the first, and told Flynn I reckoned you were one of those chaps who came back from the mines dead broke, and hadn't enough to buy back your things.And he up and bought 'em for you \u2014like a square man.That's Flynn's style, if he is a gambler.\u201d \u201cBut,\u201d persisted Flint, \u2018this never was my property.My name isn't Fowler and I never left anything here.\u201d The assistant looked at him with a grim, half-incredulous, hglf-scornful smile.\u2018Have it your own way,\u201d he said, \u201cbut I oughter tell ye, old man, that I'm the warehouse clerk, and I remember you.I'm bere for that purpose.But as that there valise is bought and paid for by somebody else and given to you its nothing more to me.Take or leave it.\u201d The ridiculousness of quarreling over the mere form of his good fortune here struck Flint, and as his abrupt benefactor had as abruptly disappeared, he hurried off with his prize.Reaching his cheap lodging house he examined its contents.As he had surmised, it contained a full suit of clothing of the better sort, and suitable to his urban needs.They were a few articles of jewelry, which he put religiously aside.There were some letters which seemed to be of a purely business character.There were a few \u2018daguerrotypes of a pretty face, one which was singularly fascinating to him.But there was another of & young man that startled him with its marvelous resemblance to himself! It might have beem \u2018is own portrait, In a flash of intelligence de understood it all now, It was the like- mess of the former owner of the trunk, for whom the assistant had actually mistaken him.He glanced hurriedly at the envelope of the letters.They were addressed to Shelby Fowler-\u2014the name by which the ase gistant had just called him.The mystery was plain now, but for the present he could fairly accept his good luck and trust to later fortune to justify hitnself.Transformed in his new garb, he left his lodgings to present himself once more to his possible employer.His way led past one of the large gambling saloons.It was yet too early to find the dry goods trader disengaged, perhaps the consciousness of more decent civilized garb emboldened him to; mingle more freely with strangers, and he entered the saloon.He was scarcely abreast of one of the faro tables when a man suddenly leaped up with an oath, and discharged a rovolygr full in His face.The shot missed.Before hif unknown assailant could fire again the astonished Flint bad closed with him and instinctively clutched the weapon.À brief but violent gglo ensued.Flint felt his strength failg him when suddenly a look of astonishe ment came into the furious eyes of his ade versary, and the man\u2019s grasp mechanically ed.The balf-freed pistol, thrown ups.ward by this movement, was accidentally - discharged point blank into his temples and he fell dead.No one in the crowd had stirred or interfered! \u201cYou've done for French Pete this time, Mr.Fowler,\u201d said a voice at his elbow.He turned gaspingly, and recognized bis benefactor, Flynn, \u201cI call you all to wite mess gentleman,\u201d continued the gambler, ing dictatorially to the crowd, \u2018that is man was first attacked and was une ed.\u201d He lifted Flint's limp and empty , and then pointed to the dead nfan, ho was still grasping the weapon.\u2018\u2018Comel?oe caught the half paralyzed arm of Flip und dragged him into the street.= \u201cBut,\u201d stammered the horrified Flint, al Jack Frost at Work, \u2018While Jack Frost is at work it is well to know what will cure his bites, and .Mr.Lorenz Nippoldt, Woodbury, Miun,, U.L.A.writes January 28, 1890: \u201c St.Jacobs Oil was used in my family for frost-bitten feet and it cured them thor- ougbly, lt is excellent, also, for.fraah cute.I speak from my own experience.\u201d Every family should have it.ho was borne along, \u201cwhat doss tt all meanf What made that man attack me?\u2019 \u201cI reckon it was a case of \u2018shooting om sight,\u2019 Mr.Fowler ; but he missed it by not waiting to see if you were armed.It wasn't the square thing, and yeu're all right with the crowd now, whatever he may have had agin you.\u201d \u2018 But,\u201d protested the unhappy Flint, \u201cI never laid eyes on the man before-and-my name isn\u2019t Fowler.\u201d Flynn halted and dragged him in a doorway.\u2018 Who the devil are you #\u201d be asked, roughly.Briefly, passionately, almost bysterically, Flint told him his scant story.An odd exe pression came over the gambler's face.* Look here,\u201d he said abruptly, \u201cI have passed my word to the crowd yonder that you are a dead broke miner called Fowler, I allowed you might have had some row with that Sydney duck, Australian Pete, over there in Australia, That satisfied them.If I go back now and say that it's a lie\u2014that your name ain\u2019t Fowler, and you never knew who Peto was\u2014they'll jest pass you over to the police to deal with you, and wash their hands of it altogether.You may prove to the police who you are, and how the d\u2014d clerk mistook you.But it will give yuu trouble.And who is there here who knows who you really are?\u201d \u201cNo one,\u201d said Flint, with sudden hopelessness.\u201cAnd you say you're an orpban, and aint got any relations livin' that you're beholden to?\u201cNo one.\u201d \u201cThen take my advice and be Fowler, and stick to it.Be Fowler until Fowler turns up and thanks you for it.For you've saved Fowler's life, as Pete would never have funked and lost his grit over Fowler as he did with you, and you've a right to his name.\u201d \u2019 He stopped, and the same odd, superstitious look came into his dark eyes.\u2018\u2018Don\u2019t you see what all this means?Well, I'll tell you.You're in the biggest streak of luck a man ever had.You've got the cards in your own hands, They spell \u2018Fowler.! Play Fowler first, last, and all the time.Goodnight and good luck\u2014Mr.Fowler.\u201d The next morning\u2019s journal contained an account of the justifiable killing of the nos torious desperado and ex-convict, Australian Pete, by a courageous young miner by the name of Fowler.\u2018\u2018An act of firmness and daring,\u201d said the Pioneer, \u2018which will go far to counteract the terrorism produced by those lawless ruffians.\u201d In his new suit of clothes and with this paper in his hand, Fiint sought the dry goods proprietor; the latter was satisfied and convinced.That morning Harry Flint began his career as salesman and as \u2018Shelby Flower.\u201d From this day Shelby Fowler's carear was one of uninterrupted prosperity.Within the year be became a partner; the same miraculous fortune followed other ventures later; he was mill owner, mine owner, bank director\u2014a millionaire.He was popular; the reputation of his brief achievement over the desperado kept him secure from the attack of envy and rivalry.He never was confronted by the real Fowler; there was no danger of exposure by others; the one custodian of his secret, Tom Flynn, died in Nevada the year following.He had quite forgotten his youthful past, and even the more recent lucky portmauteau; remembered nothing, perhaps, but the pretty face on the daguerreotype which had fascinated him, There seemed to be no reason why he should not live and die as Shelby Fowler.His business a year later took him to Europe.He was edtering a train at one of the great railway stations of London, when the porter, who had just deposited his port manteau in a compartment, reappeared at the window, followed by a young lady in mourning.\u2018Beg pardon, sir, but I handed you the wrong portmanteau.That belongs to this young lady.This is yours.\u201d Flint glanced at the portmanteau on the seat before him.It was certainly not his, although it bore the initials \u201cS.F.\u201d He was mechanically handing it back when his eyes fell on the young lady's face.For an instant he stood petrified.It was the face of the daguerreotype, \u201cI beg your pardon,\u201d he stam mered, \u2018but are those your initials?\u201d She hesitated ; perhaps it was the abruptness of the question, but he fancied she looked confused.\u201cNo.A friend\u2019s.\u201d She disappeared into another carriage, but from that moment Harry Flint knew that he had no other aim in life but to follow this clue and the beautiful girl who had dropped it.He bribed the guard at the next station and discovered that she was going to York.On their arrival he was ready on the platform to respectfully assist her.A few words disclosed the fact that she was a fellow country woman, although residing in England, and at present on her way to join some friends at Harrogate.Her name was West.At the mention of his, he again fancied she looked disturbed.They met again and again; the informality of his introduction was overlooked by her friends, as his assumed name wasalready respectably and responsibly known beyond California; he thought no more of hisfuture; he was in love! He even dared to think it might be returned, but he felt he had no right to seek that knowledge until he had told her his real name and how he came to assume another.He did so alone, scarcely a month after their first meeting.To his alarm she burst into a flood of tears and showed an agitation that seemed far beyond any apparent cause.When she had partly recovered, she said in a low frightened voice: \u2014 \u201cYou are bearing my brothers name.But it was a name that the unhappy boy had so shamefully disgraced in Australia that he abandoned it, and, as he lay upon his death-bed, the last act of his wasted life was to write an imploring letter begging me to change mine too.For the infamous companion of his crime, who had first tempted, then betrayed him, had possession of all his papers and letters, many from me, and was threatening to bring them to our Virginia home and expose him to our neighbors.Maddened by desperation, the miserable boy twice attemp the life of the scoundrel, and might have added that blood- guiltiness to his other gins had he lived.Idid change my name to my mother\u2019s matden one, left the country, and have lived here to escape the revelations of that desperado, should he fulfill his threat.\u201d .In a flash of recollection Flint remembered the startled look that had come into his assailant\u2019s eye after they had clinched.It was the same man who had too late realized that his antagonist was not Fowler.\u2018Thank God! you are forever safe from any exposure from that man,\u201d he said, gravely, \u2018\u2018and the name of Fowler has never been known in San Faancisco save in all respect and honor.It is for you to take back\u2014fearlassly and alone!\u201d She did-\u2014but not alone, for she shared is with her

angel of deaih, who has for the past week been hovers ing over Earnscliffe;has cast a gloom over the whole land, distinctly unfavorable to busi- mess operations.No one doubts but the direction of the destinies of the country will fall into the hands of some one as able and devoted as those of the dead Knight, but there is a period of uncertainty, and uncertainty is the worst of all enemies to trade, The very expectation of this time of doubt and indecision has been sufficient to check to a considerable extent, the trading of the past week and has deepened the gloom that was already hanging over the money market, The annual general meetings of the Bank of =Montreal, the Quebec Bank, the Dominion Bank and the Eastern Townships Bank, have taken place during the week and though dividends have been declared at the old rates and capital and re serves are unimpaired, there was no cheerfulness in the tone of the managers and presidents who, one and all, seem to anticipate a coming period of financial disaster.Why this fair Dominion should, of all countries of the earth, be most likely to feel the full force of the coming storm does not seem to be clearly explainable, and perhaps it is as well for tue Veaders in our financial institutions to keep clear ot political matters.Of the statements ms thev stana it would be dificult for the most morose critic to point out any opening for reproach, The Bank of Montreal insti- guted a bold policy in wiping out a lot of mominal assets, but in so doing the strength of its position is by no means affectcd.The stock and reserves are untouched, there is still a magnificent balance to the proñt &nd loss account and the usual dividend was Paia, 50 thal there does not seem to be any round for the gloomy prognostications indulged in.Quebec Bunk makes a very satisfactory showing, paying the accustomed dividend and adding a good percentage to its reserves, Eastern \u2018lownships Bank pays its usual dividend and carries a large sum to sires\u201d account.Dominion Bank pays a Jarge dividend and carries sums to the \u2018rest\u2019 account that make it nearly equal to the original capital.All this seems & proper subject ior gratulation and does not of itsel suggest any reasons for the despondency shown.These ried soldlers o.fnsance, however, come before the pub- dic with an almost apologetic air.Instead of pointing vroudly to the par they seem to come before us with \u201cAve Ccesar mori'uri 1e salutant.Wehave done well in the past but we cannot expect to continue longer in a career of unchecked triumph.We must prepare jor reverses; danger isin the air; we cannot earn the same revenue, even with the assistance of our magnificent Sresia,' As we used to earn without them in the past)\u2019 They seem to give up the case &lmost without a struggle, but there aré those who have better faith in the country.Ifwe have made mistakesin the past we can retrace cur steps.The country is young aud cannot bave gone so far past the right path as to Le unable to get back.The eloquence of our united bank directors will scarcely be able to persuade us that we are entirely cut off ircm salvation, There seem to be some trials ahead.Some of our markets have been closed through the tempgrary insanity of our neighbors, and some are injured by causes that we ourselves may remove, but we shall find means to pull straight and with th assistance of a unteous harvest thie year we shall not be long about i.The reduction of the Bank of England rates of discount to 4 per cent was predicted last week, and shows unmistakeably the opinion of some of the ablest financiers of the world that the time of distrust and contraclion in all enterprises bas now passed away and that we are on theeve of one those timc\u201d of guod trade that give such satisfactory returns to merchants and capitalistz, This much is signified by the return of confidence, for not only is the bank rate reduced to 4 per cant., but the easy state of the open market makes fit more than probablo thata further reduction will be made during the coming week.In New York.which is probably second to London s8 # money market,there is a fuil re- gurn of confidence and the rate bas dropped t03to 34 per cent.In this city there has been something of the same movement and money on spot is now quoted easy at 4 10 4} r cent.Exchange has rule firmer, ew York funds 1-32 to 1-16, sixties 94 to 9 3-16 and demand 9 13-16 to 9 15-16.On the local stock exchange business, though showing an advance lover last week, Das been very quiet.The main support of the stock market was, as usual, Canada Pacific 4n which three quarters of the transactions 200k plsce.This kstock opened with sales at 761 and by Monday\u2019s closing was down to 754.\u2018A night's calm reflection seems however to have convinced speculators that the continued good advances shown by the published weekly receipts more than balanced the adverse conditions that might probably ensue on the passing away of Sir John Macdonald.Accordingly, we find that nexeday the shares began tu rise in public estimation and by the close of the week were little behind their former value, The week closed at 73}; and at its highest point was 78; In banks there was mot much doing the business of the whole \u201cWeek being under 400 shares the range of fluc- tations being limited tol} in Bank of

day\u2019s business, The facts which wil] attract attention and will demand consideration in the market just now are these: There is a likelihcod that gold exports will continue indefinitely; call money will probably continue easy for another month: time money is pretty sure to grow stiffer.Big traders are out of the market, only small speculators are trying to move things one way or the other, There is practically no short interest in the market; there is nothing in sight to start a boom, R.I.direoters declare officially and in answer to heavy holders that the dividend reduction policy which has just been started is going to continue unless earnings very greatly increase.The same suthorities intimate that there is little likelibcod of such an increase, The exact official language of à director was : \u201cIf during the coming quarter we do not earn a dividend we will not it.We shall not do any book vod ing in order help along stockholders who want quotations boosted.We would just as jeave pass the dividend altogether as to order areduction, we think thisisagood time to go slow.Stockholders ought to be willing to accept short rations now in order to get the best results out of the future.Boiled down, this talk is merely bearishness.It is officially stated that the Louisville amd N.has made an energetic effort to market bonds and bas failcd.Neither here nor abroad have they beep able to sell bonds though they advertised extensively and employed able brokers to work for them.It gins 10 look as if all the bond market for rome years past has bcen chiefly in Europe and that

New York Weekly Financlal Review, By Messrs, Henry Clews & Co., Bank Wall-street, New York.Co., Bankers, NEW YORK, June 6,\u2014Wall-street has been somewhat disappointed during the past week at the non-cessation of the exports of gold.Nearly $7,000,000 of specie has been sent Lo Europe, within the six days, in the way of regular exchange transactions; which shows that there is still outstanding a foreign balance against us, and that European bankers preter to have it settled in cash rather than to allow it to remain here earning interest.This disposition on thie part of our foreign creditors 18 not remarkable considering the good rates at which they can just now employ their funds at home, and in view also of the fact that the great state banks are using all their influence to induce joreign bankers to keep their metallic reserves within ready reach.The amount of gold already received from the United States would, under ordinary circumstances, amount toa glut which would induce a quick reflux of a good portion of that supply.But the circumstances at present atlecting European finance are not *\u2018or- dipary\u201d ones.To say nothing of the lingering after-effects of the South American disasters\u2014which still remain a serious element of uncertainty\u2014the relations of Russia to the Continental and London money markets constitute a grave source of disturb ance.lhe question is not so much whether that country is either ableor likely to call for gold; lor it seems to be generally conceded tbat Russia has already withdrawn nearly ail her funds from foreign depositories; the point of anxiety is as to whelher the Czar\u2019s Government will disburse the money in redemption of matured loans, or it will allow the loans to run and keep the gold, Were the European money markets in a condition to admit of the negotiation of Russia\u2019s proposed new loan, no doubt redemptions or the old loans would be made that would return a considerable amount of gold to Holland, France and Germany; but the Rothschilds still postpone that operation, and Russia has on baud so many ambitious schemes requiring large home expenditures that she is likely to prevent any reflux of gold across her boundaries, and in that case ihe continental banks may suffer from scarcity of guid, Moreover, Russia's outrageously inhumane treatment of the Jews is producing such a deep resentment in the world\u2019s Uubiic opinion, that there is a liability of its «comiug a matter of earnest diplomatie protest, which means in effect a new and sensitive element in the possibilities of war.Beyond these contingencies, the bad prospects of the European harvests suggest a certainty of England, France and Germany having to export a considerable amount of gold ior the purchase ot cereals within immediately approaching months.Under these circumstances, it seems reasonable to expect that, so long as the balance of trade with tnis country gives Europe the option of drawing gold from us, the opportunity will not be neglected, It is this disposition, and the fact that evidently we Lave not yet fully liquidated our current floating indebteuness to Europe, that account ior the continued free export of specie during the past,week.It has very rarely happened that we have been subjected to so much pressure to liquidate our maturing foreign debts in cash as is now being experienced; and, with the rege for increasing banking reserves that now exists across the Atlantic, it is not easy to say when the drain may be stopped by the cessation of an adverse balance of international settlements.These are clearly couditions that call for caution at this centre.It is true that the situation in London has shown considerable improvement Within the past week, The Bank of England has gained £3,0.0,00) in gold making a 1otal increase for the last three weeks of $32,000.00 while the proportion of reserve to liabilities stands at the exiraor- dinary rate of 44.35 per cent; and under these circumstances the Bank has naturally reduced its discount rate from 5 to 4 per cent.But strong as is this statement, our week's export of gold shows that the Bank is willing to still further augment its accumulation of cash.The oniy satisfaction we can find under these extraordinary movements is in the unvarying rule that a wide swing of the pendulum in one direction is followed by one proportionately wide in the opposite.The question is whether the change will come in time to preventstringency in the New York money market.That question is not easily solved ; and we advise our friends to wait for the answer from events, rather than jump te a conclusion.The situation suggests hope as well as caution, For while we have froin our circulaucn, the large special disbursements of the Treasury last fail and the creations of new silver currency more than compensate for the loss.And, as might have been expected, this inflation of the circula- from

exchange at the interior and at coast cities, there is more Jet to come.Still, conceding the probabili- Lies to be in favor of an early end of exports from other cities, the non-realization of these probabilities would produce a ditappointment money market and dause a [ree selling of securities.The \u2018\u2018bears\u201d arc perhaps over-discounting that adverse chance, and the consequent

dullness of the week, and trading seems almost at a stand still.Buyers and sellers are yet too far apart for business, though there was talk of an export trade, chiefly in low grades.The showers during the week helped the growing wheat crop to some extent, ut there was not sufficient rain to entirely relieve all apprehension.Foreign markets are reported dull and unchanged, We quote: Spring

\u2014_\u2014\u2014 Provisions, etc, Saturday was a quiet day in the provision trade, but prospects are generally considered to be improving, and packers generally are looking to increased demands, \u2018The better spirit is attributed to the working out of the Jarge stocks of pork bought ab low rates in the winter which is now almost all out of jobbers bands and so the demand is now more telt by packers.As the quality most called for is not put up at this time of the year, holders of stocks consider they will shortly have tbe market in their Own hands.We give quotations as 10llows : Canada
