OTTAWA, Aug.10.\u2014 United Canada, the Irish Catholic newspaper published here, sill have a leading article in its issue tomorrow on the Manitoba school question.After dealing with the number and importance of the schools in St.Boniface and the different religious orders which are engaged the work of education there, it refers to the part that Archbishop Tache took in bringing the Province into Confederation and keeping it intact with the other portions of the Dominion, despite the internal troubles which had more than once arisen there, It also says that it has the assurance of two ministers of the Crown that the rights of the minority in the Province will be maintained, or, in other words, that REMEDIAL LEGISLATION will be passed.Sir John Thompson is certainly one of these Ministers, and it is understood that Mr.Costigan is the other.The article adds that unless such concessions are made towards the minority, there is nothing left for them but to seek annexation.SIR GEORGE DIBDS TREATMENT.The treatment accorded Sir George Dibbs by the Canadian ministers jrecalls the fact that some time ago delegates came here from Jamaica to confer with the Dominion Government about closer trade relations between that colony and Canada, but the latter went home indignant over the way they had been received.Our Government hasan unfortunate faculty in treating official visitors uneivilly.The coming of Sir George was heralded by Sir Charles Tupper and others as a great event, yct had it not been for outside pressure brought to bear on Mr.Carling, who dropped in to see him at the last moment, he would have gone home without meeting any member of the Cabinet, and this despite the fact that his business was of great importance to the Doum- inion.There is much unfavorable comment on the matter here.PERSONAL ITEMS.Hon.Mr.Chapleau left to-day for Montreal.Major Chapleau and Mrs.Chapleau leave to-morrow for Chicoutimi.BIG GUN SHOOTING.The Scores Made on Monday

moulders\u2019 strike or lockout, which began last spring, still continues, but there are now only 36 men receiving strike pay from the International Union.About 100 union moulders are working in the Williams stove Works, the Laidlaw manufacturing works and other moulding shops in the city, and about 60 have gone to other places to work.À dispatch was received from Buffalo\u2019 today, stating that the collector of customs at the latter place had decided there was no law to prevent the 13th Battalion band of Hamilton from playing in Buffalo, as they 0 not come under the head of labor corps, eing skilled musicians.The band is en- 8aged to play at Buffalo during the big ex- osition, and will go there from Denver, lorado, where they are at present filling onig J gement at the big conclave

mission held its final sitting here to-day.Several leading citizens were present, and gave testimony.Ex-Mayor Chipman Smith, rector of public works in the city, said that when he was mayor the granting of licenses was directly under his control.He paid no attention to petitions, but did pay a good deal of attention as to whether theinen and the places were suitable.The licenses were of a good class, and the system worked satisfactorily.He said, that temperance societies were doing a good work ; people were sober and industrious, and he had no trouble with drunken men working for the city.As far as he knew, both the Scott act and the Maine law were failures.Miss C.8.Frost testified respecting the Protestant Orphan Home, and attributes the position of the inmates as almost eatire- ly due to thejdrunkenness of parents.H.L.Stundee, a former mayor of Portland, said that the Scott act was not enforced in Portland because public sentiment was against it.He considered a general prohibition law impracticable ; had visited \u2019ortland and Bangor, Me., and had scen liquor sold openly.Dr.Crawford thought a total abstainer\u2019s chances of a long life better than a moderate drinker.If a person drank liquor so as to impair digestion, of course, harm resulted.zhief of Pôlice Clark said there were 83 retail and 20 wholesale licenses in force.The places were well conducted, and the police were generally successful in enforcing the law.The Rev.Canon Brigstocke said that he had fully considered the prohibition question, when the Scott act was under consideration, and did not think that it would be for the good of the community.The Church of Iingland had always taken a prominent part in temperance work.He considered moral suasion and religious teach- He the best means of overcoming the liquor habit.Deputy Sheriff Rankine accused the temperance peuple of not giving adequate support to temperance laws after they were passed.Rev.J.C.Wilcomb declared that the Scott act was a thorough failure, and injured thejtemperance cause by increasing drinking and setting neighbor against neighbor.James Hanney, associate editor of the Telegraph, said he ¢id not think prohibition could be enforced.}e had seen the Scott Act persistently violated; was in favor of encouraging temperance by moral and educational means.It was no use trying to enforce a prohibitory law while the sentiment of the community was against it.Mayor Peters said that, considering the number of sailors and other floating population, he considered St.John a sober city.He waa also of the opinion that prohibition could not be enforced; had seen the workin of the Scott Act in several counties, an considered it a failure.The commission will sit at Bt.Stephen to-morrow.MANY PEOPLE DROWNED.St.Two Russian Steamers Collide \u2014 Ninety Reported Missing.ST.PETERSBURG, August 10.\u2014The pleasure steamer reported on Monday as having been run down outside of Helsingfors was named the Ajax.She was soarcely seaworthy and was only fit for running along the const, She left Helsingfors on Tuesday with 100 excursionists on board.er return was delayed, and she urrived off Helsingfors after midnight.The channel is very narrow and navigation im the darkness was very slow.When the narrowest part of the channel was reached, the steamer Runeberg was met going out.The onp- tain of the Ajax, instead of following the rule and passing the outgoing ateainer going to port, caused his helm to be put hard down and attempted to cross the bow of the Runeberg.Before the latter could alter her course she struck the Ajax and crushed \u2018into the latter's rotten timber.A panic ensued, The excursionists ran hither and thither, wildly shrieking for heip.All dis- cipliue was lost and the crew made a rush for the boats.But there was no time to cast them loose, for in a minate nfter she was struck the Ajax sank.As soon as possible the engines of the Runeberg were reversed, and she went astern at full speed until she went ashore near the scene of the collision, Those on board of her threw over life buoys, boxes, chairs, tables; in fact anything that would float and help to support the strugglers in the water.The Runeborg\u2019s boats were lowered away and pulled back to the scene of the accident.The night was so dark that it was almost impossible to distinguish objects half a boat- length away, and the searchers were guided in their work by the frantic shrieks of the victims that could be heard coming out of the darkness.Their task was extremely difficult, but they worked almost with desperation and succeeded in saving a number of the passengers and crew.The first report of the accident stated that 45 per- sous were lost, but later reports show that the number was much greater., Ninety persons are reported missing, and of these the bodies of 35 have been recovered.THE PAGO-PAGO AFFAIR.Secretary of State Fostor Has Heard Nothing Definite Yet.New Yorx, August 10.\u2014The Tribune\u2019s Washington despatch says: Secretary of State Foster stated yesterday that he has as yet received no trustworthy information concerning the telegraphic reports from San Francisco that Great Britain had seized a poiat in Pago-Pago harbor, and made preparations to occupy and otherwise perfect its title to a concession from Samoa for a coaling station there.Secretary Foster stated that while this information was meagre and unverified it was sufficient to induce the officials of the State Department to look seriously into the general subject of this country and England\u2019s rights in Samoan harbors, and will be fully prepared to meet such a remote contingency asa conference of opinion on treaty construction between the two Governments.Window Glass Scale Settled.Prrrspure, August 10.\u2014 The window glass scale is settled and all the factories will start up either September 30 or October 6.The scale is last year's with a few slight changes.Duke of Fife on the Land Question.Loxnon, August 10.\u2014The Duke of Fife, speaking at the Keith Cattle show yesterday, said he was convinced properties of various sizes were more desirable than the solid overgrown estates which were the pride of a former generation, and that he had carried out this idea as soon as he came into possession of his own property.The wider distribution of land, he declared, would dispel class jealousy and promote national stability.Knight's Templar Conelave.DENVER, Aug.10.\u2014The real business of the Knight's Templar conclave commenced this morning.The grand encampment at once took up the consideration of the new rules on the report of the committee which for the past year has been preparing _something that will conduce to harmony in the ritual work throughout the United States.At the election of officers to-mmorrow it 18 almost certain that Judge McGurdy of Corunna, Mich.,, will be elected Grand Master.A GREAT WASHOUT.Narrow Escape of the Central Vermont Boston Train.The Central Vermont Boston train which is due here between eight and nine o\u2019clock was delayed over one hour owing to a washout at St.Albans caused by a heavy storm which raged in that neighborhood.The conductor of the train when seen by a H¥RALD representative said that he had never had such a narrow squeak for his life.Shortly after passing St.Albans a terrific thunderstorm withvivid lightning broke out and shortly afterwards he noticed a streak of lightning strike a farm house and in a few seconds the structure was one mass of flames, It was a grand but awful sight.Whether any lives were lost he could not say, because his attention was drawn away by his train giving some awful bumps, and he thought they were going to be derailed, but, thauks to Providence, they arrived safely over what turned out, on enquiry, to be a serious washout caused by the storm.The Central Vermont train, which was due here at 10 o\u2019clock last night to connect with the west train, did not arrive until 12.30 o\u2019clock this morning, owing to the above disaster.The people in the latter were loud in their displeasure at being kept waiting, but when the cause of the delay was cxplained to them they felt cheerful that their soon-to- be fellow-passengers had arrived in safety to accompany them.EARTHQUAKE IN GERMANY, It Damages a School House and Gives the Scholars a Bad Scare.BERZIN, Aug.10.\u2014 At 8.30 this morning an earthquake was felt at Coblenz, Valentia, Nassau and Neiderlahustein.The movement lasted for ten seconds.At Niederlahn.stein the shock was so severe that a number of chimneys were thrown down and the people were in great fear for their lives.The school house at this place was damaged and the scholars were panic-stricken.Some of the smaller children were hurt in the scramble to escape from the building, At Coblenz the people precipitately lett their dwellings and made their way to the open spaces.A large number cf the houses at ms were badly shaken.Many of the people who are visiting the place for their calth were taking their early morning bath at the time of the shock.They bastily threw about themselves scanty coverings and left the baths as quickly as possible.By the time they reached the street, however, the movement had ceased.So far no report of any serious damage has been received.TO MEET IN NOVEMBER.THE DATE SAID TO BE FINALLY SETTLED UPON.The Session Liable to Be a Stormy One\u2014Dlis~ satisfaction With the Measures of Taxation \u2014 The Lieut.-Goyernor.{Special to The Herald.} Quesec, August 10.\u2014It has been decided by the Provincial Government that the Legislature will be called together in the early part of November.The session will in all probability be much more stormy than the last, principally on account of the measures of taxation which have created such universal discontent all over the province.Thelatent discord existing between the two well defined parties in the ministry, or before it if Lieut.-Governor Angers is replaced at the expiration of his term of office in October next.Nothing is known here as to his successor, and it is thought in certain quarters that without being formally confirmed in a second term of office, he will be allowed to continue in the enjoyment of his present functions until matters have been settled so as to avoid an open rupture between the ministers.These gentlemen are meanwhile enjoying their vacation and travelling over the country in separate groups.THE MONTREAL COURT HOUSE.Mr.Casgrain left this morning for Montreal to visit with Mr.Nantel the works at the Court House.A Government organ states that the work cannot be completed under $1,000,000, whereas Mr.Garneau, the former Minister of Public Works, expected to spend only one half of that amount.The local papers are publishing article after article on the subject of the Manitoba Schools Act, and it would be a matter of no surprise if the legislature were called upon to sign a formal petition asking for its repeal.CANADA\u2019S MILITARY DEFENCES.General Herbert who, in the company of Mr.Mackenzie Bowell, Minister of Militia and Defence, is at present inspecting the fortifications of Quebec, has been heard to express his conviction that to place our militia in a proper state of efficiency was a most difficult, not to say hopeless, task.It is sid to be lis intention, on his return to Ottawa, to urge upon the Government to appoint the military commission he spoke of in his last report.Mr.Faucher de St.Maurice would like the Government to send to the World's Fair as compltee a collection as possible of Canadian literary works of all descriptions, with a view of atfording the world a more correct idea of the history of Canada, and of the enlightenment of its people.QUEBEC BOARD OF TRADE RESOLUTION.At the meeting of the Quebec Board of Trade yesterday afternoon, a resolution was passed condemning the practice of selling seized contraband liquor at public auction for the reasons mentioned in the HERALD some three weeks ago.The attention of the Government was also called to the importance of extending the Quebec & Lake St.John railway as far as the Georgian bay on Lake Huron, and also to the urgent necessity of protecting our fishermen on the Canadian coast of Labrador.Americans and Newfoundlanders, it is alleged, come in superior numbers and with more modern apparatus and deprive our fishermen, who are for the most part almost destitute, of the only means of subsistence they possess.Accident to the Muskoka Express, SEVERN BrIDGE, Ont., Aug.10.\u2014Part of the Muskoka express bound for Toronto, left the track two miles north of here this afternoon owing to an accumulation of sand on the track, which had

two attacks upon the rebellious Angherite tribesmen to-day and were each time driven back in great disorders.Orders were finally given for the troops to retreat and the force in a badly disorganized condition made their way to the camp at Tangier.It is feared the tribesmen may attack the city.The Moorish soldiers fared very badly in their engagements with the rebels, one hundred of their number being either killed or badly wounded.The Angherites on the other hand suffered but few casualties.will probably break out duving the session, TO RESIGN FRIDAY! Lord Salisbury Expected to Tender His Resignation.Mr.Gladstone to Visit the Queen\u2014Arrange- ments Being Made For His Reception at Osborne\u2014Press Comments on Mr, Gladstone's Speech and the Speech From the Throne.LoNDpoN, Aug 10.\u2014\u2014Mr.Gladstone to-day received a communication from General Ponsonby, private secretary to the Queen, announcing that arrangements were being made for his reception on Friday at Osborne House, the Quecn\u2019s residence on the Isle of Wight, whither Mr.Gladstone will proceed on a summons from Her Majesty.Lord Salisbury is expected at Osborne House tomorrow to tender the resignation ef the present Government upon the adoption by the House of Commons of the \u201cno confidence\u201d amendment to the address in reply to the Queen\u2019s speech.TRESS COMMENTS.LoNDoN, Aug.10.\u2014The Standard says: \u201cIt is clear that Mr.Gladstone cannot long count on the support of either of the Irish parties.While he ignored Mr.Redmond\u2019s questions, it is doubful whether the assurances he has given to Mr.McCarthy will be satisfactory to the Nationalists, either in Ireland or America.\u201d The Chronicle says : \u201cWe doubt whether the oration delivered by Mr.Gladstone will be ranked among his finest efforts.Itis only when he stands at bay that his oratorical efforts soar to the highest heights.But it Vas a masterpicce of adroit illusiveness.Everybody knew that while he dealt laboriously with the speeches of Mr.Goschen and Mr.McCarthy, it was only Mr.Redmond\u2019s demands that troubled him, and he solved the problem with consummate skill and dexterity.Nobody can say he ignored Mr.Redmond, yet nobody can say he even once recognized his existence.\u201d The Chronicle contends that the most important passage in the speech was the promise to proceed with the Newcastle program, even if the House of Lords rejected the Home Rule bill.Nothing else, the Chronicle says, is wanted to whip up English opinion, in favor of Home Rule, but the obstinate refusal of the Peers to deal with the matter in a prudent spirit.GLADSTONE IS ALL RIGHT.Mr.H.W.Lucy, who doubtless knows as much about Mr.Gladstone\u2019s physical condition as anybody, having been assigned as a newspaper correspondent to accompany him in all his travels, says the Old Man is in prime physical and intellectnal vigor.Mr.Lucy has known him more or less intimately in public and private life for 18 years, and can testify that never more than during those two weeks of incessant toil in Midlothian did he display full personal cnergy and clear intellectual force.TO RESIGN FRIDAU, LonpoN, Aug.10.\u2014Contrary to expectation the political duel in the House of Commons did not culminate to-night in a division on the motion of *\u2018no confidence.\u201d \u2018The motion will come to a vote probably early in to-morrow\u2019s proceedings, and the ministry wll resign on Friday.NEWS FROM THE CAPITAL.New Electric Power House-A Minister's Opinion of Retaliation.OrsswaA, Aug.10.\u2014Measrs.Perley and \u2018Pate-have commenced excavating for the foundation of a magnificent new electric power house on the site of the old Baldwin mill, on

Detroit, formerly in charge of the Dominion Methodist church, has arrived in the city.Mr.Carson said that there was very little talk of retaliation on the other side.The people looked upon the action of Congress against Canada as a political move to secure votes.Asked as to the probable result of the Presidential election, Mr.Carson replied that the Democrats thought they were going to have a walk over, but his own opinion was that the race for the Presidential chair would be a clossone.The party in office had always a big advantage over their opponents, and President Harrison evidently knew how to take advantage of it.A.W.Wilson, M.P., Lennox, arrived in the city to-day.He came here to ask the Government to remove a pier in the Nipis- sing river at Napanee, the department engineer having reported in favor of its being done.The department promised Mr.Wilson to see that the improvements he desired were carried out.FROM HALIFAX.Cardinal Gibbons Serenaded\u2014Inspecting the

increase, notwithstanding the efforts of the authorities to suppress any general evidence of the spread of cholera and of popular terror.The cholera is becoming more virulent at Novgorod, and people there blame Baranoff, the Governor, for not taking better measures of prevention.Baranoff, in reply to popular criticism, has increased the severity with which he punishes his critics.Two respectable

AFTER THE FIRE.St.John's, Nfid.,, as it Appears at Present.The Fire was a Great Streak of Luck for the Riff-Raff.But the Middle-Class Will Suffer Greatly for Months to Come\u2014 The Troubles of St.John's Pretty Girls.{Special correspondence of The Herald.l Orr CAPE CANso, July 26.\u2014 At daybreak yesterday morning the steamship Portia, bound for New York from Pilley\u2019s Island, steamed into St.John\u2019s.It would be hard to imagine a more weird and thoroughly uncanny sight than the ruined city as it lay there in the early morning light.Unless one Lad seen St.John\u2019s as it was a month ago it is utterly impossible to describe the ruin and chaos which prevails there now.For two miles and a half the track of the fire stretched.The flames have ploughed a great furrow four streets wide all the way from the stable on Long Hill where the brindle cow kicked Thomas Brien, milkman, in the ribs and tossed him and his lighted fire on a pile of hay, to the gaunt stone building at the extreme end of Signal Hill, which has been set apart as an hospital on infectious diseases.It is more than a fortnight now since the fire took place and therefore to the Bt.John\u2019s people it has ceased to be a nine days\u2019 wonder.Already the ruins are losing all their picturesque effects, thanks to the men-of-warsmen of the Blake and Emerald who blew up the more dangerous of the ruins the first day that they came on shore.Along the river front a line of blackened stumps burned to within a few inches of the water showed where the steamship docks had been.In the coal yards great piles of coal were still blazing, and encircling the entire city there was a dull grey, murky halo from the forest fires, which have been burning for a month now without cessation.Not a soul seemed to be stirring in all the town, as the Portia steamed up the narrows between the long chain of cliffs which so effectually padlock the town from storms, icebergs, and even fog.itself.The ship itself seemed almost to be making her way on tip-toe, everything was so deathly still.But once the dock was reached St.John\u2019s awoke, and a contingent of her more wakeful citizens sauntered down to have a look at the new arrival.One thing was very soon evident.If you wanted to find out any of the real particulars of the fire you had to ask for themselves.The excitement HAS PRETTY WELL SUBSIDED now, and it is too long by a year or so for the tide of reminiscence to set in.Just at present the people have their hands so full of business, that they havn\u2019t much time to talk.Before the morning was over one had become quite accustomed to hearing a man say, with one breath, \u201cMy dear fellow, Ive lost everything [had in the world.I haven't got so much as a rag left,\u201d and the next instant this same man would commence to talk quite chirpily about the weather, or to whistle Fata ra-boom.de-ay.> So thoroughly has the fire done its work that unless one has some indelible or fire-proof landmark to go by it is almost impossible to find the site of any particular building, Several of the Portia\u2019s passengers who had been stopping at the Atlantic hotel until within two days of the fire searched for it vainly for half an hour, and then located it in the wrong spot.The streets are more than ankle deep in dust, and consequently the hills with which the town abounds are harder climbing than ever.At almost every corner one encounters a singed or crippled dog.The old maids of St.John\u2019s are in despare and half mourning.Almost every cat in the burnt district was burned alive.As soon as the flames and the panic got under way the poor creatures half mad with fright made tracks for their favorite holes.With the pigeons it was the same story.Over one hundred of them were found ten day after the fire in one dove cote alone.The tire had not reached them, but they had all been suffocated.It is impossible for persons living on this continent to fully realize what the fire really means to Newfoundlands.The news has been flashed from one end of the country to the other that 8,000 were homeless there, and every day mow from all quarters relief ig pouring in.But it isn\u2019t the 8,000 persons who are now homeless that are going to be the real sufferers by the fire.In fact even at this moment the greater part of them are better fed and cared for than they have ever been in their lives before.As one of the St.John\u2019s merchants put it this morning, it is the middle classs that are going to bear the brunt of loss and hardship.\u201c\u201cThis fire has been a perfect bonanza to the riff-raff of the town,\u201d said he.\u201cThey're simply living on the fat of the land.If the relief supplies were only sent in money we would be better able to reach live class who really need help, but who at the same time would starve before they would ask for it.I could tell you of hundreds and hundreds of men and women in this town who are not only penniless to-day, but have not the slightest prospect of making another penny either to-morrow or any other day.And these persons, mind you, have been accustomed to own their own home and live in really comfortable circumstances.There's one old lady whom I know who owned sixteen houses.The rents from these houses permitted her to live nicely.For forty years she had religiously paid her insurance.But last year something or other happened, she found herself suddenly pressed for read money, so she allowed her policy run out.te took the fire just about ten minutes to burn the whole of these sixteen houses and HER OWN LITTLE HOMESTEAD too.Now that\u2019s the sort of persons whe really need relief.The poor are amply provided for now, and there's enough work to be done in rebuilding the town to keep the most of them busy for the next ten years.Besides, most of them stole enough on the night of the fire to keep them for a year at least.You never saw such wholesale looting in your life.Men, women and children thus all took a hand.Why, I saw one woman roll a barrel of flour out of Banning Brothers\u2019 store, just as the flames swept down on it.After she had pushed it for about à block, the head of the barrel fell out and the flour poured out on the pavement.A small boy rushed to help her, but she disdained assistance.\u2018 Never mind,\u2019 she exclaimed placidly, it ain\u2019t worth troubling about.I'll go back and get another one.\u201d And back she ran to the store again.\u201d À few moments after this story was told two old chaps were overheard talking on the dock.\u201cWell, Jacob,\u201d said the first old chap, \u2018\u2018you\u2019ve got anew pair of trousers on.How did vou make out on the fire anyway ?\u201d \u201cBadly,\u201d replied Jacob, with a regretful shake of his head.¢ Mighty badly.My luck was shockin\u2019 moderate.You see I wag late in gittin\u2019 down there, and all the groceries was half wasted by then.I got 21 pair of pants.That\u2019sall !\u201d In fact, the poor people at the West End of town who were not burned out are &0 envious of their neighbor's fate that, within the seven days following the fire the West End 2 THE MONTREAL HERALD, THURSDAY was set on fire 13 times.If the Blake had mot arrived in port just when she did it is more than likely that the entire town would now be in ashes.St.John\u2019s is now under martial law and orders have been issued to the sailors to shoot any incendiaries caught iu the act.One woman, a Mrs.Walsh, wife of a sea captain, was tried yesterday before Sir Baldwin Walker on board the Emerald, on the charge of arson and sentenced to five imprisonment.She was one of the ret.women to apply for relief when the Relief Committee got in working order.When it was discovered that the woman had not been burnt out at all the secretary sent her off with a flea in her ear.Mrs.Walsh turned on him in a fury and shaking her fist in his face shouted : \u201cI'll show you whether you'll relieve me or not.\u201d The woman went home, poured a can of kerosene over the floor and bedding and then deliberately set fire to her house.Without waiting to see whether it burned down or not she started for the Relief Committee's rooms again.Before she reached there, however, she was arrested, : The Newfoundlanders are a cautious race and place very little confidence in banks, Hundreds of the working classes had ail their savings concealed somewhere about their homes or persons.On the body of Mra.Stevens, one of the fire's three victims, a hundred sovereigns were found.It is supposed that she had them TIED AROUND HER WAIST in a linen girddle which she wore under- nea: h her gown.When the news of the fire reached Halifax late on Friday night, one of the Blake's propellers was undergoing repairs.Her commander was out of town and could not get back inside of six or eight hours.He telegraphed for the Blake to start instantly.Over a hundred tents and blankets were put on board of her and off she went.Twenty- seven hours from the time she left Halifax she was in St.John\u2019s harbor, a distance of 530 miles.Her captain claims that if lie had had the other propeller he could easily have made the voyage in 22 hours.The Roman Catholic Cathedral and the Salvation Army Barracks are the only public buildings of a religions nature left standing in the central part of the town.The cathedral perched on the summit of Garrison Hill was well out of the fire\u2019s track, but the Salvation Barracks, a wooden building, stood right in the h-art of the flames.All evening while persons of a less fervent faith were saving their household goods and doing all they could to help their neighbor, the Salvationist men and women stood around their building armed with drums, triangles and hymn books, and played and sang.They now claim that the building was saved by a direct interposition of Providence on their behalf.The unregenerate say, however, that the tunes they sang were 10 unearthly that they frightened even the very flames away.ll creeds without exception join in bewailing the loss of the beautiful English cathedral.It was Sir Gilbert Scott\u2019s mas- iece and by many judges it was oonsid- ered far and away the best work of gothic architecture in North America.St.Thomas\u2019 is now the only Episcopal Church left in town and here an hour before the fire broke, one of the prettiest of the St.John\u2019s girls was married to a wealthy young Newfoundlander.Among their wedding presents was a house and grounds, which was furnished throughout and all ready for the newly married couple to walk iu and take possession.They had decided to go into the country for their honeymoon and they left on the one railway which runs out of St.John\u2019s just a few minutes before the brindle cow gave that fatal kick to Mr.Brien.At the first station where the train stopped a telegram was handed to the bridegroom.It said simply, \u2018Come back at once.Your house is Paring, \u201d A return train was leaving almost immediately, and the bride and groom reached home in time to see the burning of both their parents\u2019 homes.Their own little home and all the bride\u2019s trousseau which she had left there, having no use for it in her country outing, had beeu in ashes for a good half hour.By the first relief ship, which arrived from Halifax three days later, the bridegroom received a bundle of old clothes.With the bundle came a note from an old friend, which said: \u201cDear Will\u2014I dare say some of your employees or some other poor beggar who has been burned out will be able to make use of these old togs.I daresay you'll be able to find some use for them.\u201d ~The bridegroom vent this note of thanks to Halifax by the first mail: \u201cDear Harry\u2014Thanks immensely.I did find some poor beggar who was able to make use of those old togs of yours.In fact, my dear boy, at the present moment those old togs of yours comprise my wedding troussean.They're rather a quick fit, but I'm not over-captious just at present, I only wish that some other obliging friend would send some equally good \u201cold togs\u2019 to my poor wife,\u201d This incident only serves to throw a partial aide light on the inner circles of ST.JOHN'S PRETTY GIRLDOM, The poor dear things find themselves in a predicament which is positively tragic.Im.again the pity of it ! Actually two men.of- war in port, and never so much as a second best last seagon\u2019sgown in which to receive even a middy.Miss Flora McFlim- y's fate was elysian compared to thers.And not only #0; but the fire has caused a perfect exodus among the summer visitors, Most of the New York contingent were quartered at the ill-fated Atlantic, and barely eacaped with the clothes on their backs, and throughout the town wherever two or three summer boarders were gathered together, it was very much the same story.All yesterday evening, as the Portia and the Allan line steamship Carthaginian outward bound for Liverpool lay side by side getting ready to sail, a flock of \u201cyoung women invaded both their quarter decks.They had come to see the last of their more lucky sisters, who were going either to New York or \u2018\u2018going home.\u201d On the Allan steamer one lovely \u201cyoung woman was fairly inundated with \u201ccommissions.In an evil hour she had admitted to her more bosom friends that she was going home in search of dresses.Across the deck on the Portia\u2019s quarter-deck, à little Brooklyn girl sat.gulping the tears back as her renin of the long summer holiday, made up largely of impromptu pic-nics, jolly Newioun land partners and larky afternoon tennis, and teas began to fade away with the dock in the distance, As the Carthaginian slipped from her moorings there went up a staccato chorus from the dock, \u2018 Good bye, God bless you.Be sure you get passementrie on mine.And for heaven's sake don\u2019t forget, dear, that my boot number is 2}, not 24.\u201d The Portia\u2019s departure was after another fashion.Some one on the deck struck up # Auld Lang Syne,\u201d and within a moment the old chorus had spread to every part of the ship and dock.Everybody sang except the little girl.She couldn\u2019t, because she was crying so.Then one of the passengers shouted * Three cheers for St.John\u2019s ;\u201d and, after the last cheer had died from the dock, there came the answering shout, ** And God bless the rest of it.\u201d Just at that instant the fire-bell began to ring.The crowd on the dock waved a last and particularly hurried adieu, and then hurried up to town again to see whose house it was this time that was burning.AcToN DAVIEs, Pipe Smoxers.You may be satisfied with the brands of tobaccos you have been using for years.Grant it ; that you are

Non-Union Men Said to be Stopped.HOMESTEAD, Pa., August 9.\u2014The Carnegie compauy seems to have stopped its non-union men stampede which begun at such a lively rate this morning as to threaten to depopulate the mill\u2019 in a week.No further desertions are reported to-day, and several of these who deserted Saturday night have returned.The firm claims that no inconvenience resulted from the departure of the men yesterday, and that the mills are operated as smoothly as before.The number of applicants for positions from the old men, according to an official at the mill, continues to increase, but the men are afraid to report at this time.On the other hand, the leaders of the locked-out men are working the desertions for all they are worth.They are bending new energies to instill dissatisfaction among the men confined in the mill.The success of the Relief Committee, which have gone east, has proved very gratifying to the men here.Similar committees will be despatched to the

In a resort where there are five belles to one beau, what a vast amount of energy must be wasted to secure the requi- ite number of autographs! It would not worth mentioning if it were not such a prevailing fact, in the same line with the xilly custom girls had some years ago of begging gold coins from their male friends for bracelet bangles.How soon such sought for trinkets must lose their charm.These ail are fads of which, sooner or later, sensible girls will be ashamed.Due Consideration.Mabel, this question of marriage is a seri- pus one that I hope you have considered weil.i Mabel\u2014Oh, dear, yes, auntie, auntie, I have worked myself sick already about my trousseau.\u2014Chicago Inter-Ocean.A BUSINESS WOMAN\u2019S CONTEMPT, A Man's Curlosity Despised Till the Reason for It Was Learned.À certain business woman often takes letters and packages to the Post-Office to be weighed.As often as she had done so she had been impressed anew with the weak and trivial curiosity of the{male mind, for every time she handed in something to be weighed the busy man in charge stopped to turn it over and read the address.\u201cAnd they talk of the curiosity of women,\u201d she scornfully thought.A few days ago she repeated this experi- ence\u2014up to a certain point.The variation began when the examining male said cheerfully: oN would be a good idea, wouldn't it, for you to put on here the town these papers are going to?Yes, certainly ; I'll write it for you, I\u2019ve saved five hundred ladics letters from being lost in the last three weeks by looking to see if they were directed all right.I don\u2019t bother about the men, but I always lock at the ladies\u2019 letters.\u201d And the crushed business woman walked away with all the sad dignity she could master.\u2014 Boston Globe.An Angel of the World.\u201cThe whirled is mine,\u201d exclaimed young Saply, when he proposed to Miss Angel during the waltz, and was accepted.\u2014Fashions.ABOUT MME.MELBA.Career of the Australian Prima Donna Who Will Appear in America this Season.Mme.Melba, the famous prima donna, who has been engaged by Messrs.Abbey & Grau, as onc of the leading prima donnas for the coming opera season, was born in Melbourne, Australia, of English parents.Her own name is Nellie Mitchell.Her father was in very comfortable circuin- stances, owning and managing a large sheep ranch.At an early age Miss Mitchell showed .freat musical talent, and her father gave er every advantage of musical instruction which could be obtained in Melbourne.Bhe was married before she was twenty years of age to a Captain Armstrong, who strongly opposed her continuing her musical studies.After her marriage Mrs.Armstrong lived with her husband in Australia for some years, always desiring to pursue her musi- tal studies and to appear in opera.Mr.Armstrong would not give his consent to this course, and this difference of opinion increased Mrs, Armstrong's determination to follow her inclinations, and when her little boy was about four years of age she took him, and bidding goodby to Australia went to London, where she studied under the best masters for some time, her father always paying for her lessons.From London she went to Paris, where her husband joined her.Then for three years she was under the instruction of Mme.Marchesi, making lier debut in concert in the Salle Erard in Paris at one of Mme Marchesi\u2019s pupil con- terts.Mme.Melba was immediately engaged to sing in opera in Brussels, where the made her debut in \u2018\u2018Lucia,\u201d attaining in unprecedented success, singing there a whole season, during which she appeared with success in \u201cFaust,\u201d \u201cTraviata\u201d and several other operas.The following season the made her debut at the Grand Opera in aris and achieved a success that was a perfect triumph.She became the idol of Pari- Blans.She was successful in every opera she sang, but her greatest triumpn was won ln the part, of Ophelia in Ambroise Thomas\u2019 \u201cHamlet.\u201d The name of Melba was adopted by Mrs.Armstrong in honor of Melbourne, her birthplace, Mme.Melba, whose name has een recently extensively coupled with that of the duc d\u2019Orleans, is said to possess one of the most beautiful lyric voices in the world, even in register, and of wonderful Tange.She sings with clearness and ease a Jn alt.In her repertory of operas are Faust,\u201d \u201cTraviata.\u201d Hamlet,\u201d \u201cLucia, \u201cRomeo et Juliette \u201d and \u2018\u2018Carmen.\u201d She la a handsome brunette, of medium size and Possessed of charming manners.;

To add to Waverly\u2019s distress his uncle, who had learned everything through the medium of a newspaper, came up to \u2018Washington to join in the search, and his great distress added to the general gloom\u2019 of Lilian's friends.Rosa Arnold alone was triumphant and secretly gratified that the search for her hated rival continued unsuccessful.\u201cI hope she is dead!\u201d she said often to herself, but outwardly she was sorrowful and sympathetic; and as she saw a great deal of Waverly in those days, she flattered herself that she was gaining ground with him, and that she might succeed in her designs upon him yet.Fortune seemed, indeed, to be favoring artful Rosa, for her part in Lilian\u2019s disappearance still remained undiscovered, although a inonth had elapsed since the day when she had sent the unsuspecting girl upon that fatal errand.Carlo Gates, the false count, still remained in prison awaiting the result of his vietim\u2019s injuries; for poor Nell lay ill in the hospital yet, and was not by any means considered out of danger.She had never been able to tell all she knew of Lilian\u2019s abduction, or Rosa\u2019s carefully guarded secret might have come to light ere now.So no one who had any concern in the events of that night was at ease except Rosa, who thought, heartlessly, that fate had ordered everything for her benefit.The Courtneys were in so much distress that her cousin Helen had withdrawn herself from society, and spent her days grieving with her two little ones, Verna and Pansy.Waverly Lennox and his uncle suffered torments of anxiety and suspense, while Carlo Gates, behind his prison bars, wished devoutly that he had never meddled with the fair young heiress, since his interference had resulted so disastrously for himself.Above all, he was devoured by apprehensions lest poor Nell should die of her terrible wound, and his neck be broken for her murder.CHAPTER XXXIX.LILIAN BEGINS TO CHAFE AT HER DETENTION Winter had passed away, while Lilian Tressidda lay ill and suffering, and all nature was rejoicing in the genial breath of spring.The beautiful city of Washington began to look tenfold more lovely with the tender green of April creeping all over its wide parks and budding out on its graceful trees.In Lilian\u2019s youthful frame, too, new life began to creep, slowly at first, and then more boundingly, as the days of her convalescence increased in number.And with returning health and strength came full remembrance of the past, and an agonized wonder that she should be here under this strange roof so long.She had told Mrs.Graves her whole story as soon as she became well enough, and besought her to send word to the Courtneys where she was, and the smiling old lady bad promised to do so.Indeed, she kept promising, but that was all, for in answer to Lilian\u2019s importuni- ties she would daily reply: \u201cOh, yes, my dear, I forgot it yesterday, but I will certainly send to-day.There is no use in hurrying, anyway, as you are not well enough to be taken away yet.\u201d \u201cBut they will be leaving the city.They will certainly he going home soon!\u201d Lilian cried out, with the peevishness of illness.\u201cYou will be well taken care of all the same,\u201d said Mrs, Graves, kindly.\u201cBut I have no claim on your kindness.T do not wish to remain so long a burden on you.It was very kind of you to take me in and care for me during my illness, and I shall always be grateful to you, dear madam; but indeed I should like to return to my little charges.Only suppose that Mrs.Courtney should employ another governess! Then I should be left homeless and friendless;\u201d Lilian said with tears in her eyes.\u201cNeither homeless nor friendless while Emmet and I are living,\u201d replied Mrs.Graves, and Lilian colored hotly, for in the last two wecks she had found out thot Emnict Ritchie loved her if possible even better than in those summer days at Lennox, when she had alternately snubbed him and smiled on him with the innate coquetry of budding girlhood.Every day he came into the little parlor where she rested in the large easy- chair, and sitting down beside her read to her or talked to her, trying eagerly to awaken an interest in her young heart before she went away where the man he dreaded as a rival could have any chance to win her.Mrs.Graves was partly mercenary in her desire for her nephew to marry Lil- Jian, but not so Emmet himself.He loved her ardently as he had loved her when he had been a rich young man and she simply a dependent on the bounty of old Mr.Lennox.He grieved that their positions were reversed now, but he did not see any reason in this why he might not love and woo her.\u201d So he made love to her with as much empressement as he dared in the face of her shrinking and shyness, spent as much time with her as he could spare from lis daily employment, brought her flowers, fruit and books that made heavy inroads on his slender purse, and gave himself up to a dream of winning his idol for his very own, while at the same time keeping the doors of the house so closely Jocked that if she had had any idea of escape she would have been foiled in the attempt.And already this purpose began to form in her tortured mind.She felt indignant at the tardiness of the artist and his aunt in making known to the Courtneys the fact that she was safe at their house, for knowing the esteem in which she was held in her employer's family she guessed well at the grief and auxiety they would feel at her unexplained absence.Another care, too, more subtle and painful than her anxiety over the Court- neys, brooded sadly over her mind.1t was the thought of Waverly Len- nox, and the fear lest he should marry Rosa Arnold before he found oui how cruel, false, and utterly unworthy she was of his love.The count had told her that Waverly Lennox was soon to marry Rosa, and the fear lest he had already done so was like a thorn in her heart.She determined that she would start as soon ns she grew strong enough to walk, and seek out the Courtneys.\u201cI must know whether I have lost him forever!\u201d she cried to herself in anguish.(To be continued.) THE SIEGE OF BERLIN.[The following touching story of the Fran- co-Prussian war is from the powerful pen of Alphonse Daudet, and was translated for the Boston Transcript.It describes such a campaign as evary Frenchman wanted, and such as he bolieves in his soul might have been carried on if only-\u2014But, as Dr.Holmes has quaintly phrased it, the \u201cAs,\u201d and not the \u201cIt,\u201d wins in this world.] We were walking up the Avenue dos Champs-Elysees with Doctor V., and reading the story of the siege of Paris in the walls and pavements around us, perforated | by shells and broken by canister shot.Shortly before we arrived at the Square de l'Etoile the doctor stopped, and pointing to one of the large corner houses which are so pompously grouped around the Arc de riomphe, said \u2018Do you see those four windows which open on that balcony up there?During the early part of August, that terrible month of 1870 which was so full of storms and disasters, I was called to that house to attend a case of apoplexy.It was the house of Colonel Jouve, a cuirassier of the first empire, and a man full of glory and patriotism.He had lived since the beginning of the war in the Champs-Elysees in the apartments up there.Can you guess why?In order to assist at the trimnphal return of our troops.Poor old man! The news of Wissembourg came as he was getting up from the table.Reading Napoleon\u2019s name at the bottom of the bulletin of defeat, he had fallen as if struck by a thunderbolt.\u201cI found the old cuirassier stretched out upon the floor of the room, his face as rigid and expressionless as if he had received a blow on the head from a club.Standing, he must have been very tall ; lying down he appeared immense.His handsome features, perfect teeth and a head of thick, white hair, made his eighty years seem to be but sixty.Near him knelt his granddaughter, in tears.She assembled him very much.To see them together you would have said that they were like two Greek medallions struck from the same mould, only the one was old and time-worn and a little irregular in outline, while the other was bright and perfect, like the complete brilliaucy and softness of a new coin.\u201cThe child\u2019s grief touched me.She was the daughter and granddaughter of a soldier.Her father was on the staff of MacMahon, and the figure of her old grandfather streched before her called up in her mind another image not less terrible.I reassured her as well as I could, but to tell the truth I had little hope.It wasa case of hemiplegia, or paralysis of one side of the body, and at cighty, one hardly ever recovers from that.For three days he remained in the same motionless condition.In the meantime the news of Reichshoffen had arrived in Paris.You will recall in what a strange way the news came.Until evening we believed that the French had gained a great victory, twenty thousand Prussians: killed and the prince royal a prisoner.I do not know by what miracle, by what magnetic current, an echo of our national joy found its way into the paralyzed mind of the semiconscious soldier ; nevertheless, it is true that when I approached his bed that evening I did not find the same man.His eyes were almost clear and his tongue was recovering its usefulness, He had the strength to smile at me and to stammer twice, \u2018Vic- toi-re I\u2019 \u201c \u2018Yes, my dear Colonel, a very great victory,\u2019 \u201cAnd as fast as I gave him the details of MacMahon\u2019s success, I saw his features relax and his face grow brighter.\u201cWhen I was leaving, the grandchild accompanied me to the door.She was pale and was sobbing.: \u2018 \u2018But he is saved,\u2019 I said, taking her by the hand.\u201cThe unhappy child had scarcely strength enough to answer me.The real newsabout Reichshoffen had just been posted, announcing that MacMahon was in flight, aud that his army was destroyed.We looked at each other in consternation.She was grieving also at the thought of her fathor.For my sclf I trembled at the thought of the grandfather.He surely would not be able to resist this new shock, and what would we do?Let him keep his joy and the illusions which had brought him to life again.But in that case it would be necessary to lie.\u201cVery well, then, I will lie,\u201d said the heroic child, and drying her tears quickly, she went back like a ray of sunshine into her grandfather\u2019s room.\u201cIt was a severe task which she had undertaken.At first, all went well, The oor man\u2019s mind was greatly weakened, and e allowed himself to be deceived as readily as if he were a child.But as he gained strength, his mind became clearer.We had to show him the course of the army\u2019s movements, and to rewrite the military bulletins for him, It was truly a pity to see the pretty child bending night and day over the map of Germany, and striving to put every thing together into a glorious French campaign; Bazaine before Berlin, Frossard in Bavaria, and MacMahon at the Baltic.She sought my advice in everything, and I helped her as well as I could, but it was the old soldier himself who aided us the most in this imaginary invasion.He had conquered Germany so many times under the first empire.He knew all the campaigns in advance.*\u2018 Now this is where they are going to go, and that is what they are going to do, he would say, and his prophecies were always realized, a fact which did not fail te make him very proud.\u201cUnfortunately we never went quickly enough for him in capturing cities and winning battles.His appetite for victory was insatiable.Every day, when I called to see him, I learned of a new French victory.¢ \u2018Doctor we have taken Mayence,\u2019 said the young girl one day, meeting me with a peary smile.At almost the same instant I heard a joyous voice exclaim from the next room : \u2018March on.March on.we shail enter Berlin.\u2019 \u201cAt that moment the Prussians were not more than eight days from Paris.We considered at first whether it would not be better to take the colonel into the country, but as soon as he got outside of the city he would have found out the true circumstances, and I found him still too feeble and too weakened by his great shock to let him know the.truth.We therefore decided to remain in Paris.\u201cOn the first day of the siege, I went to his room\u2014as I recollect\u2014very much excited, anb with that anguish in my soul which could only be caused by the condition of our unfortunate city, with war itself under our very walls, and our suburbs themselves converted into frontiers.I found my patient proud and contented.\u201cAh,\u201d said he, \u2018the siege has commenced.\u2019 \u201cI looked at him in astonishment.\u201c\u201c \u2018What, colonel, do you know ?\u2019 \u201cThe grandchild turned toward me.\u2018Yes, doctor.It is great news.The siege of Berlin has begun.\u2019 \u2018She said this in a perfect quiet manner, keeping intently at her sewing, How could he suspect anything?He was not able to hear the conquerors\u2019 cannon.He could not In eight days | ren see his unhappy Paris, broken down and destroyed.AÎl that he cozld see from his bed was a part of the Arc de Triomphe, and around him, in his chamber, the mementoes of the first empire, well calculated to sustain his illusions.Portraits of marshals, ictures of battles, the king of Rome in his by garments, large tables filled with royal relics, with medals and bronzes, the Island of St.Hclena under a glass globe, some miniatures representing the patron saint of that island, dressed for a ball in a yellow gown with leg-of-mutton sleeves\u2014 and all these things representing perfectly the peculiar charm of the year 1806.It was this atmosphere of victories and conquests, more than anything else, which .made him believe so readily in the siege of Berlin.\u201cBeginning with this day, our military Operations were much simplified.It was only a matter of patience to take Berlin.From time to time, when the old soldier was wearied too much, we read him a letter from his son, an imaginary letter, of course.You can readily imagine the despair of the oor child, without news of her father, knowing him to be a prisoner, deprived of everything and perhaps sick, and at the same time having to read happy letters from him.At last her determination failed her.No news came tothe colonel for some weeks, and finally he grew very restless and could sleep no longer.Immediately a letter came from Germany, and she read it to him gayly, at the same time struggling to keep back her tears.The colonel listened attentively, smiled in an appreciative manner, approved, criticised and explained to us the meaning of the troublesome passages But ho especially enjoyed the unswers which he sent to his son.\u201cNever forget that Jou are a Frenchman,\u2019 said he once.\u2018Be generous to the unfortunate people.Do not let the invasion bear too heavily upon them.\u201d And thenwould come some recommendations, some delightful precepts on the respect which we owe to woman.It was indeed a true military code of honor for the use of conquerors.With these he also intermingled some general considerations on political matters, on the conditions of peace which should be imposed upon the conquered country, and here he was not exacting.\u2018\u2018 \u2018The indemnity of war, nothing more.What good would it do to take their rovinces from them?Can we make a new ance out of Germany ?\u201c\u201cHe said this in a firm voice, and there seemed to be so much candor in his wards, such a beautiful, patriotic faith, that it was impossible not to be moved.\u201cDuring all this time the siege was going on, but not the siege of Berlin, unfortunately.The weather was severe, and the misery was intensified by bombardments, epidemics and famine.Nevertheless, thanks to our care and efforts, and to the indefatigable tenderness that was shown him by every one, the old soldier's peace was not disturbed for a moment.Until the end I was able to procure him white bread and fresh meat.There was only enough for him, however, and you can imagine nothing more touching than those repasts of the poor old grandfather, so innocently selfish, be on his bed laughing happily, and beside him his dear granddaughter, somewhat pale because of her privations, guiding his hand, helping him to drink, and assisting him at everything.Then, strengthened by the meal, amid the comforts of his warm room, the cold, wintry wind and the snow beating against the windows, the old cuirassier would tell of his campaigns in the North, and relate for the hundredth time the story of that unfortunate retreat from Russia, when they had nothing to eat but frozen bread and horseflesh.\u2018\u201c \u2018Do you realize it, my child ?he said.\u2018We actually had to eat the flesh of horses?\u201cShe did, indeed, understand it well.For two months she had not eaten anything else.As the days went by, our task increased in proportion to the gaining strength of our patient.The enfeebled state of his mind and body, which had helped us 80 much until now, began to disappear.Two or three times already the terrible volleys upon the \"Maillot gate had caused him to jump, his ear having become as keen as that of a hunt- ing-dog.We had to invent a second victory of Bazaine at Berlin, and tell him that the cannon were being fired from the Invalides as a salute in honor of the victory.One day, when we had pushed his bed close to the window, he saw the National Guards assembling on the avenue.\u201cWhat are those troops doing there?he demanded ; and we heard him grumbling: \u201cWhat a showing! What a showing?\u2018Nothing more came of this.but we saw that henceforth we must take the greatest precautions.Unfortunately we did not take enough.One evening, as I was coming in, the child came to me, greatly troubled.* \u2018The troops are going to enter the city to-morrow,\u2019 she said.\u201c Was the old soldier's door open?It must have been, for I now remember that his appearance was strangely altered that evening.It is probable that he had heard us.Only we spoke of the Prussians, and he thought of the French and of the triumphal entrance for which he had been waiting so long, with MacMahon marching down the avenue amid flowers and the flourish of trumpets, his son at the marshal\u2019s side, and he up above on the balcony, in a grand uniform like that which he had worn at Lutzen, saluting the tattered flags and the powder-stained eagles.\u201cPoor Colonel Jouve! He had undoubtedly imagined that we would hinder him from viewing the grand return of the troops, in order to avoid too great excitement on his part.So he spoke to no cne, but on the following day, at the same hour that the Prussian battalions were entering the long avenue which leads from the Maillot gate to the Tuileries, the window up there opened softly and the colonel appeared upon the balcony, his helmet on his head, his sword at his side, and in the complete uniform of a cuirassier.I still ask myself by what effort of will, by what new hold upon life, he had thus been able to put himself again in harness.He must have been greatly astonished, standing there behind the railing, to find the streets so empty and so quiet, the blinds of all the houses closed, and all Paris as gloomy as a pest-house.He must have been astonished especially at the singular appearance of the flags, which were white with rcd crosses npon them, and at the fact that there was nobody inthe streets to greet the soldiers.\u201cFor a moment he appeared to think that he had been deceived.But no.Behind the Arc de Triomphe there was a confused clatter, and a black line which advanced steadily.Then, little by little, the peaks of the helmets began to glisten, the drums began to sound, and through the Arc de VEtoile, burst the triumphal ranks of Schubert.\u201cThen, in the dreadful silence a terrible cry was heard: \u2018Aux armes! Aux armes! Les Prussiens And the four Uhlans of the advance guard saw high above them on the balcony a tall old man stagger and fall prone upon the floor.Colonel Jouve was dead.\u201d WOMAN'S WAYS, Notes of

interests of this port waited on Premier Abbott to discuss the canal tolls question.The deputation comprised Messrs.J.S.Allan, D.A.P.Watt, John Torrance, R.Reford and Henry Murray, representing the ocean steamship lines ; and Messrs.Alexander Mitchell, Alex, McFee and William Stewart, of the Corn Exchange.These men, who represented the vast shipping interests of Montreal, were unanimous in their suggestion.They wanted the Government to allow a rebate of 18c on the Welland charges of 20c per ton, on all grain bound for Montreal, irrespective of whether or not it was transhipped en route.They claimed, and they were justified from their knowledge of the case, in speaking with authority, that this course, while not injuring the inland Canadian marine, would bring grain to Montreal which otherwise would find its way to American seaports.These representations were ignored.A rebate was granted, but its application was limited ; grain transhipped at Og- densburgh, or any other American lake port was excluded from its operation.When the present Government takes any actionit is always well to ask \u2018Why ?\u201d Generally, under cover of some high- sounding pretence, there lurks a job.There was one in this case, There are two transhipping companies operating between Montreal and Lake Ontario.They are the Montreal Transportation Company and the Montreal and Kingston Forwarding Company.Lake vessels drawing too much water to utilize the St.Lawrence canals, tranship their cargoes to the barges of one or the other of these companies.Transhipment takes place at Kingaton or at Ogdensburgh.The facilities at the Former city are primitive : the lake vessels tranship through a floating elevator into barges : and unless the barges from Montreal and the vessels from up the lakes reach Kingston simultaneously there is delay, and heavy demurrage tolls.Again, unless there is ship roem in Montreal for the grain, the forwarding companies ar chary of loading their barges, because it means they will be tied up until there is a chance to unload into ocean steamers.The whole machinery is unsatisfactory and is continually entailing loss and annoyance to shippers.At Ogdensburgh there are ample storage facilities; grain can be stored there until needed, and brought to Montreal in forty-eight hours.The advantage to this port of having both Kingston and Ogdensburgh to tall upon for freight is obvious.This city rannot get too much grain for exporting purposes, and\u2019 shippers are glad to wel, come it no matter whence it comes, In 1890 transhipment at Ogdensburgh was permitted, and both forwarding companies utilized the facilities of that port, In 1891 the Montreal and Kingston company, by a business arrangement, secured the exclusive right to the, Ogdensburgh elevator privileges, and very shortly afterwards the Ottawa Government discovered that in the interests of the wide Dominion it was necessary to no longer permit the transhipment of grain at Ogdensburgh, When it is added that the Montreal Transportation Company is controlled by Tory chiefs, while the proprietary of the rival company is Liberal, we have given the key to the Government's otherwise inexplicable course.The withdrawing of the right of transhipment at Og- depsburg was done to gratify personal and political malice ; it was done to benefit friends of the administration and injure opponents.And to accomplish these selfish ends the Government endangered the whole of Canada\u2019s inland shipping.We would never have heard a word of retaliation had transhipment at American ports been permitted on terms identical with those which apply to Canadian ports : and that privilege never would have been withdrawn had the Govern: ment been guided by the merits of the case, in place of by private wire-pulling.The Ottawa Cabinet has now awakenod to the fact that they have blundered.They are in great difficulty.The railway interests which are paramount at Ottawa have derpanded the settlement of this question ; and the Government sees no way out of the woods except by the repudiation of its pledges and the burdening of Montreal commerce with an excessive tax.We notify Messrs, the Incapables that they will have to devise some other means of escape.Montreal does not propose to propitiate Washington by taking the stripes on its own back.CHICAGOANS HAVE by their own actions put a stumbling block in the way of the wuccess of the Worlds Fair.The reports of delegates to the Democratic convention which drew 125,000 strangers from all parts THE MONTREAL HERALD, THURSDAY, AUGUST 11, 1593, | of the States to the windy city are sutlicient to frighten away half the intending visitors.With decent treatment the 123,000 would have acted as so many agents touting for the success of the fair, but the extortion to which they were subjected sent away, one and all, perfectly disgusted.One hundred dollars a day for a room, with board, into which five persons were crowded is an instance of what hotel keepers were equal Lo.Two newspaper correspondents paid twelve dollars a day for a small room.The restaurants, saloons, cabmen, everybody in short whose trade felt the presence of the throng, regarded the occasion as pirates do a prize.Undisguised extortion, accompanied by insolence and every form of rudeness, ruled the city.The New South Wales Premier at Ottawa The reception accorded at Ottawa to Sir George Dibbs, prime minister of New South Wales, shows how sincere Canadian ministers are in desiring closer trade relations with the rest of the British Empire.New South Wales is the oldest and most important of Britain's dependencies in the southern seas.It was established as a responsible government in 1855.It israpidly increasing in wealth and population, the number of inhabitants being 350,860 in 1861, and 1,085,740 in 1888.New South Wales does a very considerable export and import trade, the total for 1888 being $167,748,580.Even if it had been an independent country one would have supposed that the members of the Canadian ministry would have hastened to welcome the distinguished statesman who is the responsible head of the New South Wales government.While we have been sending commissions, at considerable expense, to look up our trade interest in foreign lands, one would have expected that such an opportunity of negotiating directly with our own kith and kin in Australia would not have been lost for want of a little courtesy.But New South Wales is not only valuable on its own account.It is one of the leaders in the shortly to be founded federation of Australian States, which will total close on 4,000,000 inhabitants.Its future importance in the southern hemisphere of the federation can scarcely be overrated, and as we can offer in exchange many products which are eagerly sought in those hot climates, there is at least a prospect of a large and growing trade there.The trade between Great Britain and Australasia amounted in 1889 to over two hundred and sixty-three millions, while that between Great Britain and British North America was, at the same date, one hundred and seven millions.Next to Canada a federated Australasia will be the strongest and most populous of Britain\u2019s dependencies, and in case of the future inclining to a closer rapprochement of the constituent parts of the Empire, Australia, from her situation, will be one of its most important portions.From every view of the case it scems unfortunate that the Government should have almost ignored the presence of a representative of our fellow - subjects under the Southern Cross.Sir George has been foted and feasted and made much of in Great Britain, and no doubt arranged to return home via the Canadian Pacific route in order to estimate its importance as a passenger and trading route from Australasia to Great Britain.If he has received but scurvy treatment during his stay in the political metropolis of Canada the fault is not that of the people, but rests solely with the Government.Distinguished representatives of foreign lands may come and go, retaliatory policy may threaten our future welfare, and the trade and commerce of Canada may almost appear to be hanging in the balance, but the consideration of such trifling things as these cannot induce our statesmen to give up a few days of that dolce far niente which constitutes their ides of summer happiness.The ministers are away fishing, and taking all things into consideration we quite agree with old Samuel Johnson's definition of 4 fishing line, as \u2018\u2018a piece of cord with n worm at one end and a fool at the other.\u201d The Injustice of Excmptions.In their eagerness to become great manufacturing centres the smaller cities of the Dominion are competing with one another by offerings of bonuses and exemptions from taxation to industrial enterprises.Exemption from taxation is, indeed, a capital thing\u2014for the party ex- empted\u2014and it is a wonder that other people besides manufacturers do not put forward their claims.If the chiefs in all industries were to establish an equal right to exemption with clergymen and manufacturers, it might be awkward for the workingman, who would have to bear the whole burden.Why should not a merchant who employs twenty or thirty men be considered just as valuable to a city as a manufacturer with the same number ?He probably pays better wages and employs a higher class of labor.Ilis premises are usually ornaments to the city, while the manufacturers\u2019 are too often eyesores.He does not defile the city with clouds of filthy smoke, nor deafen the ears of the citizens with the clang of machinery and the ear-splitting yells of the steam-whistle.In every way he seems a more desirable member of the community, and yet no one ever proposes either bonus or exemption for him.Again, why cannot the professional man maintain an equal claim to exemption with the clergyman ?Not half the people of a city are dependent on any church, but all are liable to need the services of the doctor.As a citizen, the doctor is as valuable as the clergyman.His ministrations are as necessary and the example of his life as calculated to improve his fellows.A strong case might also be made out for the storekeeper.What a dismal hole a modern city would appear if deprived of its long rows of shop windows ali ablaze with light, and attractive with every article that helps to make life worth living.Decidedly, no one class has a better claim to exemption than another, and though small cities, at present, seem anxious to clog their future progress by arranging to let the wealthy manufacturer go free and putting an extra screw upon his workmen vo make up the deficiency, the day of exemption is almost over.The spread of education is opening all eyes to the viciousness of legislating in favor of any particular class and against the common weal, Oan Sawdust be Utilized?Something new under the sun is wanted in Canada, and that something is a patent for the profitable utilization of sawdust.This refuse of our lumber mills is gradually filling up our rivers, poisoning our fish, having a deleterious effect upon our drinking water and disfiguring the beautiful scenery of our streams.At its present rape of filling up, the grand river Ottawa will soon be closed to navigation, and even now it is made exceedingly dangerous by explosions of gas that accumulates in the sawdust dumps.Some profitable way of utilizing this waste product would not only put a stop to the evils enumerated, but would find employment for many hands.We believe that, mixed with some sort of cement and moulded under pressure, sawdust has been made into fancy bricks, cornices, mouldings, statuettes, and for many other ornamental purposes, the product being very hard and bearing a high polish.Moulded into wheels with an admixture of some readily inflammable material, such as rosin, it makes very handy and economical fire-lighters, and in this way is largely used in Great Britain.Perhaps a certain mixture of sawdust in some of our new sidewalks would help to give a better foothold, for they are us slippery as glass, and not safe to walk on as they are.Probably a percentage of sawdust in the asphalt roadways would overcome the same objection to slipperi- mess in them.A few not very costly experiments would soon show what could be done, and, if sucesssful, would give a value to that which at present is but a nuisance.If we have only set the right man thinking on the subject our labor has not been in vain, The Corn Exchange Meeting.The Corn Exchange meeting, to-day, should be dignified and emphatic.It is through no fault of its members that commercial war is threatened between Canada and her best customer.Their advice to the ministry is on record\u2014ad- vice which, if followed, would have prevented any international trouble from arising.The Government chose to ignore their representations ; and as a conse-, quence is, to-day, in a quandary.The Corn Exchango should make it plain, even to the comprehension of tho imin- isters, that the Government must not get out of the difticultyit created itself at the expense of the shipping trade of this port.Îtis to he hoped that G.Amyot, M.P., has not forgotten that he promised tu resign after the session was over.Chicontimi election is under way, Mr.Savard, wko within the last two years has been Conservative, Liberal and Conservative again, is in the field : this time as an Independent.It is to be hoped he will get whipped.By the way, where is J.J.Curran, the member for the Corn Exchange, these days?There is a rumor abroad that he has renounced King Cole and is now warbling a popular song from Olivette : This is the time for disappearing, Take a header and down you go; Aud when above the clouds are clearing Beb ap serenely from below.GerMAN SCIENTISTS ace said to be experimenting with cholera microbes with the idea of oventually introducing vaccination as an antidote for that dread pest.li all the supposed virtues of vaccination are realized the next generation may almost dispense with doctors.By takinga proper course of vaccination while still in the nursery the future man will be able to go about his business secured against cholera, smallpox, toothache, swelled head, lightning stroke, impecuniosity, drowning, and fits.What à glorious prospect for humanity ! Who would not willingly be born over again ?A LADY WRITER in the North American Review says of the customary mourning gar- \u201cThe custom is outworn; it is an anachronism in the nineteenth century.It is unchristian; it clouds the spiritual signifie cance of the resurrection with the ever present expression of temporal loss.It is cruel; it forces helpless and innocent people into action which eutails privation and unnecessary suffering.It is untruthful; it mukes false outward show of changes in sentiment.It is essentially vulgar, for it presses private affairs upon public notices it thrusts claims of fashion and frivolity upon a time which 1nost greatly moves the heights and depths of being, and it forces its superficial worldliness into the fiercest throes that can ever rend human nature, Why, then, do we still wear mourning?\u201d ments: Wanted\u2014A Comprehensive Canal Policy.Toronto Globe : There is plenty of time before next season to consider the course to be adopted for the future; but our ministers and legislators ought not to allow that time to elapse without the formulation of a dis.tinet policy with reference to canals, not a mere makeshift, but a statesmanlike and \"comprehensive plan.All the great interests affected \u2014those of the millers, the shipowners merchants\u2014ought to be carefully considered.Then there should be some reasonable assurance of permanence.All those interested should feel that they may do business and make plans for future business in the assurance that those arrangements will not be disturbed by capricious changes, We have spent and are spending great sums of money on the improvement of our waterways.An enlightened and statesmanlike policy would help to give us the benefit of this expenditure and place us in a position from which there need be no more farmers, the and the humiliating retreats.CORRESPONDENCE.The Imperial Institute.To the Editor of TRE HERALD ; SIR : 1 observe your notice of the above in to-day's issue, and, as an old country resident, am pleased to learn that the work is now completed.The pamphlet to which you refer will, doubtless, be wanting in one respect, viz., the salaries paid to officials and the names of those 80 paid, fas numbers of Britons are inclined to consider this institute as auch another as John Bright once called the House of Lords\u2014*\u2018a gigantic system of outdoor relief for aristocrats and their relations.\u201d That the Imperial institute will knit closer the bonds between the mother country and her colonies (although the colonies, by their protective tarifls, are using their best endeavors to undo this good work) is the earnest wish of A SCOTOHMAN IN MONTREAL.Montreai, August 10th, 1893.+ The Tax on Real Estate.To the Editor of THE HERALD: SIR,\u2014I notice in this morning's issue the ideas of several of our most prominent real estate brokers on the \u2018\u2018Real Estate Transfer Tux\u201d which you are very \u2018\u2018happy\u201d in dubbing \u201can iniquitous tax.\u201d Our city has always had to pay nine-tenths of the province\u2019s taxes and now the only city that is doing any business is again \u2018\u2018jumped\u201d upon as it were with à new demand which makes it prohibitory to do any business.Within the last week only I had buyer and seller agreed us to price on the purchase of a large block which ran into six figures, but then the 14 per cent or 81,500 odd to the Government, knocked it in the head.Now as regards auctioneers\u2014the one per cent Government auction duty was two years ago removed from trade sales.This has also now been again replaced.What will become of cargo sales of teas, fruits and dry goods?Why ! this one per cent is a profit and leaves no margin, Auctioneers have to pay the Revenue Office $135 per annum and $50 for each assistant in addition to the one per cent (they also pay the Corporation $200 and $40),s0 where does the reason come in?Why not then tax stock brokers, who sell by public outery?(this would come to a nice little sum) or.as my confreres say, let the tax be ou real property throughont the Province.It is said that the tax on properties sold at auction has been withdrawn and, (according to Official Gazette July 9, Section xviil A, clause 7, \u201cThis section shall not apply to sales by sheriffs, by curators to aban- donments of property, by auction or by licitation\u201d) hag been.In this case it goes to show the absurdity of the law.What is to prevent buyer and seller coming together, signing a contract with deposit, and then \u2018\u2018putting\u201d the property up at auction adjudging 1t at the price agreed, and thereby save à per cent, (half per cent.), or, in the -case I speak of $750 alone, \u2014 Next, Commission.Montreal, August 10th, THAT CRUEL TAX ON LIGHT.The Petrolea Advertiser points with pride to the fact that according to the Inland Revenue returns, the consumption of Canadian refined oil last year reached 240,661 barrels, the largest quantity of refined oil that has ever been inspected in one year, Allowing 50 gallons to the barrel this would be & little more than 12,000,000 gallons refined oil as the product of Canadian refineries.On the other hand our imports of coal oil, naptha, petroleum, etc., amounted in that year to over 5,000,000 gallons, upon which some $375,000 duties were paid.It looks as though the tariff required some modification in this direction.Canadian petroleum makes a good lubricant but not a satisfactory illuminating oil; and the duty upon American refined Hluminat- ing oil partakes largely of a duty for revenue only.The duty upon lubricating oil is sufficiently high to protect the Canadian industry, and a strong demand is being made to have American crude petroleum placed on the free list, or the duty greatly reduced.If this should be done it would be a great relief to manufacturers who use \u2018| or would use the article as fuel, but which they are now prevented from doing because of the duty of seven and one-fifth cents per gallon.Oil fuel, or gas manufactured of oil, is fast taking the place of other fuel in the United States, and inasmuch as it is cheaper than any other fuel, Canadian manufacturers are handicapped in their operations because of the higher cost of petroleum here, caused by the duty.Canadian producers and refiners might object to any abatement of the protection they enjoy, but this might be overcome by regulating the refining of American oil in Canada, and imposing an excise duty upon its production.The matter certainly deserves the attention of the Government.It wouldbe in the interest of manufacturers inasmuch as it would materially lessen the cost of their fuel; and they would also be benefitted by a cheapening of the price of lubricants, -\u2014 Canadian Manufacturer.Have you tried the prbearrer retried \"CABLE EXTRA\" CIGARS?be, & Robinson & Co 216 St.James St.And Gold Jewelry.Soild Silver, Fancy Pieces in Cases, Mounted Ghina, and Electro Plated Ware.0.WATCH AND CLOCK REPAIRS A SPECIALITY.oO Watches Regulated Without Charge ARGALN A second hand TYPEWRITER in Good Condition Cost $120; Will be sold For $35 Cash.Address \u201cDIXEY,\u201d HERALD Office CHAMPIONSHIP - LACROSSE !

yesterday, notwithstanding the absence of many of the most prominent members, Who are on holiday bent.The absence of these members no doubt accounts for the small dealings in bank stock, which wes again neglected.Small lots of Montreal, Commerce and Merchants were dealt i current prices.Bohs total amount of shares sold was 3648, of which Duluth again took the lead with 9375.The stock did not ahow any material increase in price, but eager inquiries indicated that there were a number of ready urchasers.One prominent broker gave it as his opi- pian that Duluth common waa destined to see 50 at no very distant date.The stock opened at 14, the ruling rice of yesterday, and after & fow fractional fluctuations left off at 14) for & solid block of 975 shares.The shares are bought in most cases on investment orders and there is very litble dealing comparatively for speculative pur- 8, Potton stocks were again firm, Dominion selling at 4 points of a rise.Street Railway stock was in active demand and sold at an advance of 4 on the previous day\u2019s highest quotation.The closing price was 2313 for alot of 100 shares.This is the highest figure touched for some time and the tendency of the stock is do- cidedly upward.Gas advanced two points, a small lot changing hands at 208.Cables were completely neglected and the only transaction in Telegraphs was a lot of 75 which sold at 1453, this being yesterday's quotation, The following were the sales for the day : MORNING BOARD, 100 Canada Pac.88% 50 Dom.Cot.200 300 Duluth 8S 8 At- 130 Col.Cottons.,.83 lantic.14 130

Atchi- son advanced #, now }; Missouri Pacific went up §, now up §; Lake Shore down 4; Louisville & Nashville up #; Missouri, Kansas and Texas down }; Northern Pacific down 4; Omaha up #, now #; Rock Island up 3, now #; St.Paul up }, row dow 3.The speculation in the industrials and other specialties has been less active today, the grangers absorbing general attention.But General Electric has been in demand at § advance.It is now } up.Sugar was advanced 1, but reacted 3.Cotton oil was weak in the morning, but is now steady.Lead was dull and weak, losing 3.Cordage was strong, advancing 1, to 120.Chicago Gas gained 3.THE MORNING MARKET.Stock Exchange prices opened lower, The grangers very particularly weak.The bear campaign against these stocks, which started in yesterday, was continued this morning.There was a batch of unfavorable crop reports from Chicago, emanating doubtless from the bulls in corn and wheat.The bear made the most of these reports, with some success.The short interest in Burlington has been somewhat increased, and the stock was relatively firmer than St.Paul concerning which latter there was a story that the Rockefellers are said to have reduced their speculative holdings.There was some buying in Northern Pacific simultaneous with a rumor that at the October meeting preferred stockholders will be asked to accept debenture bonds and common stock for their holdings.The Canadian Pacific Rallway.Return of traffic earnings from August lto August 7, 1892: SOL Lee ne ne ren sens en nanas sen anna $416,000 180 tees ieresertatansitiiteerteiranessraene 391,000 Increase for 1892.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026\u2026.$25,000 Financial Notes.The Bank of England rate of discount remains at 2 per cent.Paris rentes opened at 99.15 and closed at 99.20.French exchange in London closed at 25.163.Consols in London opened at 96 13-16 and closed at 96.;

attention and discussion in spite of the absorbing mature of the canal question, A sample of wheat from.Seaforth, in Western Ontario, exhibited by Mr.W.W.Ogilvie, was regarded as a somewhat unfavorable one owing to ita smutty condition.Another sample of white winter wheat taken from the first lot sold on the Toronto market this season, exhibited by Messrs.Norris and Carruthers, was a very fine one.The kernels were large, lump and white, and the sample seemed to perfectly clean.It sold for 80¢ per bushel.Anather sample of dark spring wheat was badly atfeoted by smut.General advices, however, seem to be favorable both as to the quality and quantity of Ontario wheat.Manitoba advices are also favorable so far, The absence from the Corn Exchange of many of the representativea of Newfoundland trade ia very noticeable.American Competition.Loxpox, August 9.\u2014The British Association yesterday discussed the question of American competition in agriculture.Edward Atkinson, of Boston, read a paper on the decrease of produce, which had enabled farmers in the Western Stites to reap the same profits from decreased prices.Prof.Wallace, of Edinburgh, denied that America was becoming played out as a wheat praducing country.He held that on the contrary she was on the threshold of an immense wheat supply trade with Europe, while the centre of Ber resources in raising cattle was alinast unlimited.U.S.Delegates to the Monetary Conference.WASHINGTON, August 9.\u2014The Secretary of State has sent to the U.8.delegates to the International

in the shape of a co-operative binder twine factory, manufact- turing on ap extensive scale, are extremely reticent as to their intentions, The gentlemen who are forming the company arc Messrs.Stratford, Chal.craft, Hewitt, Hope and Brooks.The capitalists referred te are of opinion that the formation of a huge co-operative company embracing all the Patrons of Industry in the province, and especially devoted to binder twine, would confer a great boon, They propose to form a company under the style and title of the Patrons Cordage and Implement Company (limited), with a subscribed stock of 2200.00 in 40,- 000 shares at § per share.When a certain portion of the stock is subscribed several monjed men will, it is stated, put enough money in the concern to go on with the building of the worke and the purchase of the necessary machinery.HARDY CHERRIES.Buds of the Merello Cherry Will be Distributed Among the Farmers.The following circular has been sent out by the Central Experimental Farm, Ot- taws :\u2014 To Nurserymen and Fruit Growers : An important feature in connection with the horticultural work, during the past five ears, at the Central Experimental Farm, ttawa, bas been the testing of hardy forms of the Morello: cherry, recently imported from Eastern Europe.A number of these low-growing, partially dwarfed varieties have been in bearing the past two years and give evidence of unusual hardiness, vigor and produotiveness.This apparent hardiness of tree united in many instances with good quality of fruit, renders it advisable that they should be disseminated at as early a date as possible, especially in the interests of the fruit growers in the colder parts of the Dominion.In order that nurserymen and fruit growers may have an opportunity of testing them without delay, a selection including the most desirable varieties has been made, of which buds for immediate propagation are now available, and will be distributed under instruction of the Hon.the Minister of Agriculture free of charge, on receipt of the application by the undersigned.Applications should be addressed to the Horticulturist, Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa, These will be filled in the order in which they are received, as far as it is possible to meet the demand, using our best judgment in selecting suitable varieties for the various sections -Care should be taken to preserve the names, so that a record of the behavier of each variety can be scoured for the purpose of future comparison.Mahaleb is probably at present the best available atoek upon which to work these buds.In the absence of this they may be set upon stocks of Maz.zard, Bird Cherry, (Prunus Pennsylvanica) ar the Common Red Cherry, with a fair degree of sucoese.JonN Craie,

nose and throat, 248 old and 155 new, total 403; gynæcological, 258 old and 85 new.Total, 343.Diseases of children, 56 old and 82 new.Total, 138.The total consultations were 7,695, an increase of 20G over the corresponding quarter last year.The quarter had been one of average pros- erity and abundant promise.The mortality Pad not been great.Out of 604 patients treated to a conclusion, 42 had died, 13 of these within three days of admission.Deducting these the mortality was only 4.96 per cent.The number of in patients was as tollows : From last quarter 172, admitted 571, discharged 562, dead 42, remaining in 139.A detailed statement of the diseases ollowed.The staff on the out patient service had been increased by the appointment of Dr.R.Hugh Berwick to the position of dentist.No report could yet be made of the number of patients relieved.The report concluded by noting the appointment of Dr.H.W.B, Carmichael as anmsthetist.This appeared to be giving general satisfaction, and the hospital was deriving some advantage from it.The Committee of Management presented their report through Mr.John Stirling.This stated that the new additional buildings, the Campbell and Greenshields wings, were in the main completed.It was expected that they would be in working order and occupied by patients in the course of the present quarter, The delay had been caused by two reasons.First, the flooring had proved defective, and in a measure had to be relaid.The wood used should have been, according to contract, kiln-dried, A large quantity of green had, however, been used, causing sinking in the floors when heated.The relaying will take about three or four weeks, und is bein the contractors.The second reason for delay was that the furniture and equipments for the wards, &c., although ordered some time ago, had not all arrived.After the completion of this work the committee will turn their attention to improvements that have long been required in the old building.Increased expenditure had been necessary to carry on the work, and in the past three years the endowment fund had been encroached on to the extent of $18,000.It was hoped that the citizens of Montreal would respond generously to an appeal to wipe out this deficiency.The general working of the institution had been very satisfactory.Mr.Crawford asked if it were customary to encroach upon the endowment fund in case of deficiency.Mr.Thomas explained that all legacies, ebc., received were placed in that fund, whether so specifically conditioned or not.In some cases, the money was left with no proviso as to its use.He did not consider it then encroaching upom the permanent fund, to make up this deficiency.The $18,000 had not been spent for current expenses, but nearly all for repairs to buildings.re Crawford strenuously objected to the principle of enoroaching on the fund.The committee should suspend their expenditure unless they could raise the money in other ways.This gave rise to quite an animated discussion, Mr.Davidson argued on the same lines as Mn Thomas, that they were not entrenching on the fund proper.He agreed with Mr.Crawford that it would not be right.The time had now come, he said, when they must make a special appeal to the citizens, which he thought would be well responded to.Mr.D.A.Watt thought all legacies should be kept, and not used for the ordinary expenses of the hospital.They were in a sense trust moneys, even if not so stated.He referred to a previous motion of his that the committee should limit their expenditure to the income of the previous year.The number of patients should also be limited to their income.Mr.Thomas said Mr.Watt's theory was od, but it was practically impossible.Frey could not reject patients who sought admission, or they would be recreant to their trust., Mr.Garth said it was unfortunate that he words \u2018\u2018endowment fund\u201d had been used.n reality very little, if any, of it had been used for current expenses.Mr.Crawford said if even à small portion was used illegitimately, it was improper.He thought Mr.Watt\u2019s idea was a good one.Quite a \u2018\u2018breese\u201d sprung up here, several gentlemen speaking at once Mr.Watt being quite warmed up, asked where the money was coming from to accommodate all the patients when the new buildings were open.Mr.Archer, Dr.Shepherd and Mr.Kerry spoke, agreeing that they could not well refuse patients who came to them for admission.Mr.Watt finally said he would not move a motion as he had intended, but would bring the matter up again at the next meeting.Fhe reports were then all adopted, and the meeting adjourned.: St.Hen! Wants Particulars.The St.Henri Council held a meeting last evening under the presidency of Mayor Dagenais, a full board being present.The Council decided to appoint a special constable for the park on St.James street.The aldermanic body next had under discussion the request of two parties, viz, Messrs.Moreau and Descault, for liquor licences.After an animated discussion the desired request was granted.The electric car system next came up in connection with a request to join the Montreal Street railway.This was the subject of à very hot debate, and finally it was decided te have more definite proposals from the Montreal Street Railway before coming to a decision on the point.It was generally elicited during the discussion that the coun- done at the expense of | THE SOREL ENQUIRY.Production of the Books Refused-Mr.Cho- quet\u2019s Examination.Yesterday\u2019s sitting of the Sorel Railway commission developed a difference of opinion between Mr.C.N.Armstrong and the commissioners, which may yet end in a test of the powers of the commission to commit for contempt.One day last week Mr.Armstrong was ordered to produce the books of his company, and he promised to consult his co-directors on the subject.Yesterday he stated that the board had decided ata meeting hold on Monday last not to produce the books not already submitted on the ground that they did not contain any entry or any statement in reference to the $112,000 subsidy.This announcement angered the members of the commission considerably.Mr.Stephens told Mr.Armstrong that the resolution placed him in an awkward position, and Chairman Casgrain pointed out that the board of directors were not the judges as to whether the books were required or not.The commissioners were the judges, and they decided that the books must be produced.It was useless for the directors to refuse, for if the commission desired to get the books, it would take the necessary steps to obtain them.Mr.Armstrong stated that if the commissioners would give him a formal order for the production of the books he would submit it to the Board.The commissioners gave the formal order, and Mr.Stephens warned Mr.Armstrong to be careful.\u201cI see by the minutes that you and Mr.Prefontaine and another are the whole board; so you had better advise yourselves carefully.\u201d The examination of Mr.A.E.Gervais was then resumed and continued until late in the afterncon.His evidence wus not of great importance, corroborating very largely the testimony given by Mr.Armstrong and proving that the witness was to a large extent the private banker of the company at various periods.The list of payments made by him was carefully analyzed and explained, item by item.Mr.F.X.Choquet, who was one of the trustees, who administered the $112,000 subsidy, took the stand shortly before the adjournment.He stated that he knew nothing personally about the negotiations with the Banque,du Peuple by which the advance was made of money on account of the subsidy; that was all done by Mr.Pre- fontaine.He first knew about the advance when the board was notified that the bank had a certain amount of money to the credit of the company.In all he had received $14,231, of which 87,709 was drawn from the Banque du Peuple to pay claims for right of way, wages, etc ; $4021 went to pay a note discounted at the Ontario Bank by witness and Mr.Carter ; and 82500 for a note discounted by the Bank of St.Hyacinthe.These notes had heen discounted in order to keep the road open prior to the receipt of Mr.Mercier's letter.Mr.Choquet swore positively that all this money had been legitimately expended, and stated that he had rendered a full account to the company of all his disbursements.He promised to prepare a detailed statement for submission this morning, and the commission then adjourned.CLEVERLY DONE.A Story of the Bye-Election of L\u2019Assomption County.The circumstances which led to the election to the House of Commons, a few weeks since, of Ald.Jeannotte in L\u2019Assomption in the place of Mr.Joseph Gauthier, the unseated Liberal member, which were somewhat of a mystery, came to a climax yesterday, when Mr.Gauthier returned to the city from Quebec.It appears that some time since, legal proceedings were begun to compel the parishes of St.Lin and Ste Anne des Plaines to pay a bonus which they had promised to the St.John railway.The Mercier Government came to the assistance of the municipalities and voted a bonus of $30,000 to secure a settlement of the proceedings.The Lieutenant- Governor had sanctioned the vote, but when the coup d'etat of November last took place the new government refused to carry out the agreement.But when Mr.Gauthier was unseated and the representation of the county in the Commons was vacant the provincial authorities saw their opportunity, and the story was started that if a Conservative was sent to Ottawa the bonus would be paid.Mr.Gauthier stood aside rather than prejudice the interests of his constituents, and Ald.Jeannotte waselected.Now the Quebec Government has carried out its promise and paid over the money.To Discuss the Canal Tolls Question.The indignation felt by the merehants of Montreal at the proposal to reimpose the taxes upon grain coming through the canals, will find expression in a meeting to be held at the Corn Exchangeat 12.30 to-day.An interesting meeting is expected.Three Women Said to Be Drowned.La Patrie last night published a startling story about three Indians from Lake Abbi- tibi, who, it alleged, had embarked in a canoe on Lake Temiscamingue one day last week, taking with them several bottles of brandy.They never reached their home, and as the canoe was found by some fishermen floating bottom upwards, it is believed they were drowned.A Successful St.Henri Bazaar.A very enjoyable and at the same time a most remunerative bazaar was held last evening in the St.Henri town hall by the Grey Nuns in behalf of their home in that locality.The attendance was good and there is very little doubt that the amount required for theannual expenditure, amounting to $2800, will be covered by the receipts.The sisters rely on their annual bazaar and do not ask a cent otherwise for their benevolent object.A Policeman in Trouble, Constable Soulliers had an exceedingly lively time of it in Hochelaga Tuesday night.While attempting the arrest of a man named Joseph Sarsfield, who was drunk and causing a disturbance on Notre Dame street in the vicinity of the Longueuil ferry, the constable was set upon by a gang of roughs who forced him to relinquish the prisoner.The officer was not to be bafiled, however, for he followed his man and subsequently arrested him with the aid of some citizens on Fullum street.Later in the night the police arrested Thomas Bell, John Manship and John McDonald for assisting at the rescue.In the court yesterday Sarsfield was sentenced to fines of $8 or forty-five days imprisonment for drunkennesg and resisting the police respectively ; McDonald and Manship were sentenced to a fine of $10 or one month in jail each for interfering with the police, and Bell had his trial postponed until Friday.The Richelieu Assault Case.August Dubuc, the young man, an ae- count of whose arrest at Richelieu by De- uty High Constable Lambert, for the al- eged murderous assault on the old man Martin Mullarky, of Chambly, has appeared in The HERALD, was arraigned before His Honor Judge Dugas yesterday.He denied assaulting Mrllarky, and as a physician\u2019s certificate was produced by the brother of the injured man stating that it would be dangerous for him at present to leave the hospital to appear against the ne- cused, Dubuc was remanded.In the afternoon he was taken to the hospital, when Mullarky made his deposition in the presence of the magistrate.As there were certain rumors to the effect that Mullarky\u2019s name could not be found on the hospital register, inquiry was made at the institution last night.When the medical superintendent referred to the books, \u2018\u2018Martin Mullarky, 60 years of age, from Chambly,\u201d was found registered as being a patient in ward 35.The superintendent stated that while the man\u2019s life was in no danger, he was not yet in a fit condition to leave the hospital and it was also ascertained that the cilors wanted a line run from St.James sight of the injured eye was totally street to St, Henri.destroyed.\u2014 enn rez.M ae SHOT THROUGH THE BRAIN.| OUTREMONT SCHOOL CHILDREN MAKE A GHASTLY FIND.Everything Points Towards a Sad Suicide\u2014 The Identity Hard to Establish \u2014Recognised by a Doctor.Yesterday afternoon between 3 and 4 o'clock the body of a man was found by a number of children in the bush at Outre- mont, near Rockland avenue.They notified Councillor Joyce, who at once informed Coroner Jones.On the instructions of the last named gentleman an inquest was fixed to be held at 2 o'clock this afternoon, and the body was removed to the morgue.When discovered the body was in a recumbent position, the right arm thrown across the chest and the head on a stone, life being quite extinct.In the right hand was tightly clasped a revolver, one chamber ol which had been discharged, and about 13 inches above the right temple was a large bullet wound.Here was the apparent cause of death, no other mark of violence being discernible on the body.The features avore a calmy placid expression, as though the man wasasleep, and the body was warm when discovered, showing that he had not long been dead The limbs were composed, and no sign of a struggle could be perceived.If it was a case of suicide, it was evidently premeditated, which supposition is strengthened by the position of the body when found.It was just as though he had deliberately chosen a quiet place for the deed, placed a stone for a pillow, and stretched himself out, crossing one leg over the other, firing the fatal shot with his right hand, which immediately fell, with a tightened grip on the death dealing weapon, on to his breast.Death must have been almost instantaneous.When the hody arrived at the morgue it was seen by a HERALD reporter, who noted the following description: le appeared to be of mediwn height, fair complexion, with brown eyes and moustache and dark brown hair.On the left side of his nose is a scar, evidently left by an old deep cut, and the face is pitted with smallpox marks.He had on a hard felt hat, brown and black check coat and vest, somewhat worn, and dark serge pants, His underclothing was of cotton, and shoes were quite new.He wore a white starched shirt, with a turndown collar and figured red silk necktie.His hands were soft, as though not having done any heavy work for some time.n his pocket were found a pipe, 4 cards from \u201cNaps restaurant,\u201d 1842 St.Catherine street; a door key, two small pieces of cloth, and a box of 32 cglibre cartridges.The revolver was a murderous looking weapon of 32 calibre.In addition a box of pills was found in his pocket, which had been made up at Robert's pharmacy, Main street, last March, and hearing prescription number 26,885.With a view of finding out who the.man was if possible, THe HERALD reporter called on Mr.Robert, at his pharmacy, who on referring to his prescription book, found the following prescription had been made up for some man, evidently of French nationality, as it was written in French.He could not remember, however, the description of the man.28, 3-92 No.26,885 Pill.Cascora Sagrada, 2 grs., No.12, Une pilule apres les repas.(Signed,) Dr.GAUTHIER.\u201d The next call was upon Dr.Gauthier, who could not vace with any degree of certainty, the man\u2019s name from hisconsultation booke.He, however, with Mr.Robert, accompanied the reporter again to the morgue te see if they could identify the body.Each of the gentlemen at sight remembered having seen the man, but could not recollect his name.Mr.Robert said he thought he had been working at the Occidental hotel.He felt contident he had been in his store only very recently.At the Occidental, one of the waiters, whose Christian name was Gustave, but declined to give his surname, appeared ta recognize the description given ea thestepost- er, as that of a former kitchen employee named Joseph Carriere, a French Canadian, who had previously been employed at Mde.Duperrouzel\u2019s restaurant, St.Francois Xavier street, He had not been employed long at the Occidental, and left some few weeks ago.He was somewhat despondent, not being on good terms with his father, who lives at St.Jean Baptiste village, or with his wife, from whom he was separated.He was in rather poor circumstances, being \u2018\u2018down\u201d in the world.He could not say, of course, for certain whether or not this was the man until he sees the body this morning.With this uncertainty as to his identification, it is possible that deceased may turn out to be the missing Louis Michel, whose disappearance from his boarding house on St.Lawrence street was reported in Tue HERALD on July 30.Although the body was\u2019 found so early in the afternoon and Coroner Jones notified by Councillor Joyce, the inquest was not called until this afternoon at 2 o\u2019clock and no steps were taken to examine the locality where the body was found or the body itself prior to its removal to the morgue.A FREE WATERWAY.Mr.H, A, Calvin Sticks to the Opinion Which He Sent to the Premier.Mr.H.À.Calvin, M.P., who succeeded to the representation of Frontenac county, when Hon.George A.Kirkpatrick was appointed Lieutenant-Governor of Ontario, passed through the city last evening with his family, on his way to Cacouna.Mr.Calvin is one of the largest shipping owners on the lakes, and his opinion upon the suh- ject of the canal tolls is, therefore, worth having.To Twr HeraLDp, Mr.Calvin stated that he had not changed his views on the question since his election to l\u2019arliament.He still adhered to the sentiments expressed in his letter to the Premier, written in March last, when the controversy over the rebate question was in full swing, That Letter was as follows : GARDEN ISLAND, Ont., March 23.Hon.J.J.C, Abbott, Ottawa, Ont, Hon.Sir,\u2014furing the past few days your Government has been waited upon by two or three different deputations, which have urged upon you their conflicting views respecting rebates of canal tolls on grain passing through the Welland canal.The American canal at Sault Ste, Marie and their canal at St.Clair are free to Cunadians and Americans alike.Our Welland canal oughtto be free too.Why should the Americans be discriminated against in our canals while they treat us so fairly in theirs?or why should coal.timber, lumber and other goods pay canal tolls and grains be ex?empt?Yours sincerely, HiRAM À.CALVIN.\u201cYes,\u201d added Mr.Calvin, \u201c\u2018all the canals ought to be made free.The abolition of tolls on the Welland would solve the whole difficulty, and it would be an easy solution.The canals should be as free as the lakes and rivers on each side of them.The shipping interest does not ask the same treatment as the railways, which are continually receiving bonusues from the Federal Treasury.The lake marine should be encouraged.We don\u2019t ask for a bonus for vessels, we simply want a free waterway.\u201d For Over Fifty Years.Mrs, Winslow\u2019 Soothing Syrup has been used for over fifty years by millions of mothers for their children while teething with perfect success.It soothes the child, softens the gums, allays all pain, cures wind colic, and is the best remedy for diarrhœa, It will relieve the poor little sufferer immediately.Sold by

QUESTION.Four Aldermen Met Yesterday, But They Did Nothing.A special meeting of the Salaries Committee was called for three p.m.yesterday afternoen.There are nine members, but only four were to be found.Ald.Perrault, chairman, and Thompson were early on the scene, then Ald.Rolland appeared, but four were wanted.They tclephoned Ald.Cresse and with a \u2018\u2018can\u2019t do without me\u201d walk he appeared in the big aute-room at 4 sharp, just one hour late.The lawyer member at once asked if the reports of the present salaries had been received, They had not, and a short unimportant and uninteresting discussion took place.The chairman suggested that the chief of cach department should be called before the committee and he could tell what salary was merited.This same suggestion was made by Ald.Thompson last week and it seemed to meet with the approbation of the members present, but they drifted off from the actual suggestion.Clerk Gosselin sat with a pile of envelopes in front of him.\u2018\u201cAre those all applications for increase?\u201d said Ald.Thompson.\u201cThey are,\u201d was the reply, \u201cand every envelope contains a distinct application.\u201d Now came a suggestion to adiourn until the 23rd and Ald.Thompson pointed out that he was willing, but he had already attended two meetings and nothing had been'done.One thing he was sure of.\u201d No matter what was done he wanted to be fair.1f a man wasn't worth his salary ne shouldn\u2019t have it.After a little chat the four aldermen arose to meet again at 8 o\u2019clock on the night of the 23rd.The heads of each department must by that time furnish a list of employees with all particulars relating to their position.CITY AMUSEMENTS.Attractions Provided at the Theatres and Parks.The new play, the successful new play of \u201cDick Venables,\u201d will be continued to-night at the Queen\u2019s Theatre.It has established itself in the three nights that it has been played as a charming and sympathetic production, and all who have seen it are delighted.A GRACEFUL RECOGNITION.It is not often that a first-class theatrical company spends six successive weeks in Montreal, presenting, with almost uniform acceptance, a constantly changing program.Yet this has been the fortune of the New York Comedy Company.The proposal that its members should be presented with a benefit is a very timely and graceful act.It will take place on Monday and Tuesday next, and the program will consist of a triple bill eath evening.Among the pieces to be played are \u2018\u2018 Why Women Weep,\u201d \u201c\u2018Critic\u201d I act, \u2018\u2018Barbara,\u201d \u201cStage Struck\u201d and one act of \u2018Rob Roy.\u201d ROYAL PARK.Although there was a large gathering at Royal Park last night, the presentation of the gold medal to Louis Cyr, that was to have taken place, was, owing to the inclemency of the weather, postponed.Should the weather prove favorable the presentation will be made this evening.OPENING OF THE TOMBOLA.The great tombola for the benefit of Notre Dame hospital will be opened to-day at Sohmer Park.To dispose of the tickets rapidly a reulette will be used.A considerable sum of money will likely be raised for the hospital by this new mode of selling the tombola tickets.The M.& O.Road Leased.The shareholders of the Montreal and Ottawa Railway company, at a meeting held in the company\u2019s offices here yesterday, ratified the agreement, leasing their road in perpetuity to the Canadian Pacific.The trans-continental corporation will accordingly take formal possession of the new line to-day.Hon.Mr.Dewdney in Town.Hon.Edgar Dewdney, Minister of the Interior, and Mr.A.M.Burgess, his deputy, arrived in the city yesterday morning from Quebec in the minister's official car, and left for Ottawa in the afternoon.Mr.Dewdney expressed himself as much satisfied.with the results of his trip of inspection of the various immigration agencies, especially at Quebec.Incidentally the minister stated that it was the intention of the department to, in future, endeaver to have all immigrants landed at Quebec, instead of Montreal, This decision is due to the lack of proper accommodation for the reception of immigrants in this city.The National Hall All Right, Mr.G.W.Stephens, M.P.P., has written a letter to Mr.L.O.David, president of the St.Jean Baptiste, in which Mr.Stephens offers, if the society will renounce the lottery, to subscribe $500 towards the National Hall and to secure among his friends the sum necessary to complete the building.Mr.J.C.Beauchamp, secretary of the society, stated that the building would be completed even without the lottery money, as they had sufficient funds to bring the work to a successful conclusion.The corner stone of the new building will be laid with appro- riate ceremonies during the month of October next.The building is to be entirely fireproof.A conference between Mr.Stephens, Mr.David, Mr.Parizeau, Mr.Beauchamp and others was held in the Court, House yesterday afternoon, but the result did not transpire.The Musey Estate Sold by Auction.The assets of the estate of Alfred Musey, Farnham, Que., who recently became bankrupt, were sold by auction by Messrs.Mar- There was a fair attendance, atuong those present being Mr.G.W.Parent, Mr.Ritchot, and a representative from Gault Bros., of the city ; Mr.deGeorge, representing the French creditors, and Mr.A, Musey.Mr.Marcotte was the auctioneer, and he read the conditions of sale in French.The first lot was the contents of the Farnham sugat works, comprising machines, tools, sugar, molasses, materials both raw and partly manufactured, as per inventory, and amounting to the sum of about 38,700.This was offered en bloc.Bidding was rather slow, commencing at 20 cents on the dollar, and rising by cent bids to 32 cents, when half cent bids were taken.The property was finally knocked down at 334 cents on the dollar to Mr, Rit- chot, of 96 St.Andre street.The book debts amounting to about $1100, went to the same purchaser at 34 cents on.the dollar.The last lot offered was all the rights of the estate in the contracts for the production of sugar beets during the present season.On these only three bids were offered, viz.: 81, 82, and $3.They were knocked down at the last named figure to Mr.Ritchot, who had bought the previous lots.This gentleman appeared well satisfied with his bargain, but stated toa HERALD reporter that he is not going to continue the business.The property was purchased for purposes of speculation.Messrs.Kent and Turcotte were the solicitors.The Morocco Rebellion.TANGIER, August 10.-\u2014The troops marched to attack the rebels, but they returned to camp without having engaged in any fighting.Europcans here are much alarmed at the dangerous condition of affairs, The Moorish troops threaten to shoot any Euro, peans who attempt to approach their camp, The Indian Crisis.CALCUTTA, Aug.10.\u2014The leading papers here, in view of the alarming falls in the rates of exchange, urge the Government to immediately ciose the mints to the free coinage of silver.They complain that the

worth while for all interested in the competition to have a look at them.Ald.Thompson\u2019s Opinion, .Referring to Mayor McShane\u2019s statement that he will not call a council meeting for Monday next, Ald.Thompson says that after the mayor's assertion on Monday he should call the meeting, no matter whether some of the aldermen are out of town or not.It is his duty to see that the by-law is at once prepared and passed.A Mount St.Louis Retreat.Over 300 members of the Christian Brothers went into retreat at the Mount St.Louis institute yesterday afternoon.The retreat is presided over by Rev.Brother Flamien, provincial of the order, while Rev.Father Filiatrault, 8.J., is the preacher.The proceedings will continue until the 18th \u201cinstant.The English-speaking members of the order have just concluded a retreat at Longueuil.Her Name was Olive Moore.Eva Brown, the young girl whose story of being the daughter of a Presbyterian clergv- man of Quebec, excited considerable sympathy last week when she was arraigned in the Police Court on the charge of petty theft, was allowed to go yesterday ona suspended sentence.It transpired that her right name was Olive Moore, a respectable resident af Quebec, She left for her home last evening in charge of her brother-in- law, who came here specially for the purpose of taking her home.Yesterday Morning's Fire.There was a big blaze in the lumber yards of Mr.D.Parizeau, at the corner of Craig and Bonsecours street,; yesterday morning.The fire must have been burning some time before its discovery, as when the central division of the brigade arrived in response to an alarm from box 234, it had gained great headway.Streams were at once laid from reels 1, 2, 6, 7and 8, but even with this force, it was nearly an hour before Chief
