at Gravesend Causes Considerable Alarm-\u2014-Complaint Made That the Port of London is not Properly Watched\u2014Great Difficulties in the Way guof Protection, ° e London, Aug.26.\u2014The officials of th Local Government Board charged to watch the progress of cholera \u201care to-night less confident of the metropolis escaping a visitation of the disease.The Gravesend cases are undoubtedly cases of Asiatic cholera.The medical officers who inspected the steamer Gamma, from which the cholera stricken passengers were landed, permitted a number of other passengers to proceed to London under the excuse tiat they had not been in contact with that part of the vessel where the infection showed itself.To sssuage alarm, the authorities allege that precautions were taken to disinfect the passengers, but this statement, which has only been made since the character of the disease declared itself, is discredited.With cholera at Gravesend, and infected persons probabl roaming about in our midst, some outbrea of the disease in London is considered inevitable.NOT PROPERLY WATCHED.The Por of London is not properly watched.The sunitary committee has ap- fied for a vast inorease of staff, otherwise t cannot undertake the surveillance of ships entering the Thames from infected continental ports.But no Thames cordon will suffice to shut out the danger of infection.A stream of arrivals from the continent comes via Harwich, Southampton and other parts by train without inspection.Railways and steamship companies, excepting the Trans-Atlantic lines, show no intention of suspending their ordinary arrangements.In spite of the setting up of quarantine in foreign ports traffic will continue making supervision up the Thames almost valueless.The authorities expect an outbreak and are preparing to meet it.In the East End, where the last epidemic, that of 1866, killed 16,000 in a few weeks, the water supply has been tesied and found to be of doubtful quality and changes have been ordered in the filtering apparatus.The people of Bouth London have been warned that their water is a source of danger.PASSENGERS CHANGE THEIR PLANS.To-day the steamer Laura, plying between Hamburg and Lynn-Regis arrived at Lynn.She was board.¥ hv the health officials, whe found two cho uspects on board.The vessel was at ¢ .e2¢ to put back to sea.The hea: a positively refused to let a single | :

iey left the Colum- in, when they found the company bad ordered that she proceed no further, and took passage for Flushing in the Netherlands.TO INEPECT QUARANTINE STATIONS.Indianapolis, Aug.26.\u2014President Mc- Cormick presided at the meeting of the International Health Board Conference to-day.A quarantine inspection commission was appointed to inspect all quarantine stations of the United States, Canada, and Mexico.This commission is to report to the International Board.A telegram was received from Illinois State board of health and the sanitary board of Chicago.requesting that steps be taken to memorial ize President Harrison, asking for the prohibition of all immigration during the prevalence of Asiatic cholera as an epidemic in other countries, This telegram was referred to the Inspecting Commissioners with instructions to report after its investigation.WASHINGTON AUTHORITIES PREPARED.Washington, D.C., Aug.26-The officials of the government having charge of the quarantine laws of the country are unquestionably concerned over the serious hold the \u2018epidemic of cholera has taken iu Europe, though they feel fully prepared to cope with it, on this side of the water, in case it should be necessary.The Marine Hospilal service, immediately under the supervision of the Treasury Department, has all matters relating to the quarantine service in charge, and is § etter able now than ever before since its establishment, to prevent the introduction of the disease in the United States.Of late years\u2019 the method and system of quarantine Tae been greatly improved at all the stations along our seaboard.The cases of the two cholera-stricken patients found in Englaud to-day were pointed out as an exanple of the dan- arise through the ger which might sh operations of the English quarantine system, such as could never occur here, in the opinion of Burgeon-General yman, owing to the nature of, our laws requiring detention for two or three duys, of vessels coming from in fected countries.Such requirements do not exist in the linglish quarantine service.If it be thought necessary all points on the Canadian border will be closely watched and inspectors appointed to inspect the emigrants coming across the border.Surgeon General Wyman to-day in speaking of the epidemic in Lurope said there was no doubt there was danger menacing us.The avenues from foreign countries for the admission oi the disease into the country, he said, are 80 numerous an 80 widely extended that it would be a work of difficulty to revent its getting a foothold somewhere.The last time the Government had to cope with cholera.was in 1873, when it was brought in by immigrants\u2019 baggage at New Orleans.ft extended through some of the Northern Itates, but never gained a very decided soothold.CHOLERA RIOTS IN RUSSIA.Petersburg, Aug.26.\u2014The recent Hughes Steel Works and originated in St.rioting in the « Collieries, near Mariopol, the anger caused among the lower classes by the precautions taken against cholera.A mob stoned a policeman, who was \u2018eking a woman toa hospital, and a detachment of Cossacks was despatched to protect the police.The mob resisted the Cossacks with stones, cudgels and iron rails, one officer being knocked from his horse and severely injured.The Cossacks attacked the people with swords and fierce lighting ensued, two hundred rioters and twenty soldiers being disabled.The crowd then sacked the hospital pharmacy.Later in the evening the mob, excited by drink, tried to set fire to the village.The rioting was resumed next morning, when a mob of 10,000 terrorized the village, killing ses- eral Jews.They burned a village inhabited by people employed M Hughes\u2019 works, not a house being spared.Then they invaded the factories, destroying everything, The damage amounts to several miliion roubles.Order was not restored until the third day, when two regi- ments and a battery of artillery arrived on the scene.The agitation continues, and is tpreading to the mining districts.Further sroubles are feared.WILL CONTINUE THEIR SERVICE.Bremen, Aug.26.\u2014 As the Wiser River is free from cholera, it has been decided that the North German Lloyd, German Lloyd fast steamship services, shall continue as hitherto.BERLIN GETTING PREPARED.Berlin, Aug.26.\u2014At a meeting of the Municipal Sanitary commission this evening Herr Schrefer, the chairman, declared that up to 7 p.m., not a single case of cholera had occurred in the capital, the only fatal case of a diar- rhœal nature being dysentery.The commission decided to prepare 600 beds in the Moabite hospital for cholera patients and a:commodations in other hospitals if necessary.Orders were given for a more efficient cleansing of the streets of the city.SPREADING IN THE COUNTRY.Berlin, Aug.26.\u2014A workman on a train was seized by cholera to-day at Wittenberg on the Humburg-Berlin railway and died in a few hours.Twenty-eight new cases of cholera and 12 deaths have been reported in Altana since yesterday noon.An artisan has died of Asiatic cholera in Pinniberg and à child belonging to a family that fled from Hamburg has died of the same disease in Kiel.A STEAMER WITH SEVERAL CASES.Rotterdam, Aug.26.\u2014The steamer Jason from Hamburg, which to-day arrived at Maasaluis, 10 miles west of this city, had several cases

city, and another in Chatel- mean.NOT BPIDEMIO IN BELGIUM.Brussels, Aug.26.\u2014The Moniteur (official organ,) denies that cholera is epidemic in any part of Belgium.The imputed cases in Antwerp, it says, have been isolated and the disease is abating.STRINGENT REGULATIONS ADOPTED.Waehington, D.C., Aug.26.\u2014This after noon the State Department was advised by the health officers at Quarantine,

victim of cholerine.WILL CARRY XO EMIGRANTS.Bremen, Aug.26.\u2014The North German Lloyd steamship company has announced that its vessels will carry no steerage passengers who come from Russia during the cholera epidemic.A PREVENTIVE FOR CHOLERA.New York, Ang.26.\u2014Medical men in this eity are greatly interested ia a new treatment of cholera, discovered at the Pasteur Institute in Paris, aud it was learned yesterday if the epidemic con- tinusg to spread, the efficiency of the treatment will become thoroughly tested by New York experts, Of this treatment, which is auzlogous to that employed by Jenner in smallpox, and by- Pasteur in kydrophobla, Dr.Halfkine, who has been studying at the Pasteur Institute for some years, claims to be tie dircoverer, he is confident tho in.oculatory method will du [or cholera what it has already done for smallpox and hydrophobin, He hus used cholo- rie injections upon several animals with tho result thut none of them have died, The animale subjected to the poisono-s virus and not innoculated all have died.Aîter bis experiments with rabbits, guinea pigs and pigeons have proved successful, Dr.Hafikine injected into him- sell some attenuated virus of cholera, and noted the results, The symptoms were slight elevation of the temperature, pains in the bead and swelling of the skin, and gagnia at the spot where the inoculation tock place, Thore was scarcely any intestinal derangement, and the normal condition of health was restored within twenty-four hours, He next experimented on himself with ae- tive virus, with the same results, and concluded that inoeulations of this kind could be made on human beings with the eflect of safety, and six days aîter the vaccination the patients would be proof against all attacks of cholera.20 QUARANTINE THE

upon her arrival will be placed in quarantine, and her assengers and their effects thoroughly disinfected, The ship also will be fumigated, and no precaution is to be neglected to prevent, to an

Influences Brought to Play Upon the Electors\u2014The Election Became One of Natlonal Importance\u2014Labcrist's Went Back on the Liberal Candidate\u2014 Sketch of John Morley's Career, London, Aug.26.\u2014 Mr.Morley\u2019s return for Newcastle isan immense relief to the Liberals, who have been watching for the result with breathless anxiety.The party pever expended money and energies so profusely to secure a local election.While the Unienist candidate relied solely on local influences, Liberals imported, to strengthen Mr.Morley, fourteen members of the House of Commons, eight ex- members and fifteen preachers\u2014Episcopal, Catholic, Methodist and \u2018Junkers.All were in the field daily.The contest became one of national importance when some adherents of the Labor party joined the ranks of the Unionists.It was only the eight hour section of the Laborists, but as this is now a strong political factor in the country, its adhesion to the Unionist cause almost marked an electoral epoch.Mr.Morley's reputation as a high-minded and honest politician, never shone better than when e declared that he was ready to risk his scat and his office rather than submit to the demands of the Laborists.THR ACTION OF THE LABORISTS.But apart from his success, the leading outcome of the contest is the definite rupture of the Laborists with the Home Rulers.The Laborists throughout the country resent Mr.Davitt's threat that the Irish members would foil the Labor demands in the Honse of Commons if the Laborists opposed Mr.Morley.The Labor leader, Mr.Champion, replies that they have power to destroy all chance of Home Rule.As Mr.Morley has triumphed, Mr.Davitt may now seek to reconcile the Laborists, otherwise the feud may bring disaster to the Gladstone government.A SATISFACTORY APPOINTMENT.Mr.Morley\u2019s short visit to Dublin has confirmed the national confidence in him.It soon became known that he had selected as private adviser and probably under secretary for Ireland, George Fottrel, a man whose veiled influence in Irish affairs has long been recognized by both English and Irish leaders.Mr.Fottrel stands so well with the Nationalists that his reported ap- pointmentas under-secretary wàs hailed with general delight, as the advent of a genuine rish administration sealing the end of the obnoxious castle domination.The Irish leaders will be satisfied if Mr.Fottrel is appointed.THE HOME RULE BILL.Regarding the Home Rule bill, the London Chronicle's travesty of the result of the negotiation between Mr, @ladstone and the McCarthyites isnot deeme@vorthy of notice by the Irish party.Mr.Dillon\u2019s statement that the retention of the whole of the Irish members in the Imperial Parliament is an essential feature of the bill has acceptance among all of the new ministerial circle.Mr.Gladstone's nominees for the great Court offices are criticizea in a friendly spirit on all sides.Lord Breadalbane is a genuine Gladstonian, but is at the same time persona grata with the Queen, having already been Fora in Waiting and Treasurer of the Household.Lord Carrington will make a good Lord Chamberlain.RIGHT HONORABLE JOHX MORLEY.The Right Hon, John Morley was born in Blackburn, Lancashire, December, 1838.He graduated at Oxford University in 1859, and in the same year was called to the bar at Lincoln\u2019s Inn.He never, however, made any serious attempt to follow the legal profession.From the first literature claimed him for her own.He becarñe editor of the Literary Gazette, subsequently termed the Parthenon; and in 1867 the Fortnight! Review was entrusted to his care.For fifteen years he continued to edit it.He also edited the Pall Mall Gazette from 1880 to 1883; and Macmillan\u2019s from 1883 to 1888.Mr.Morley has always been an advanced Liberal.His first attempt to enter Parliament was in 1869, when he unsuccessfully contested Blackburn.He was again unsuccessful in 1880 in the city of Westminster, but in 1883 was elected for Newcastle-Upon-Tyne.He has continued to represent that constituency six times in succession.In 1883 he presided over the great conference of Liberals held in Leeds.o was an avowed belisver in Home Rule long before the Liberals of England accepted it as part of their political faith, and after the general election of 1885 he was appointed Chief Secretary for Ireland by Mr.Gladstone.He was more than any member of the Cabinet, apart from the Premier, responsible for the Home Rule bill of 1886, the defeat of which opened the door to the Conservatives, During the following five years he was one of the leaders of the Opposition, and upon Mr.Gladstone's return to power last month he resumed his old position.Mr.Morley is even more widely known as a litterateur than as a policeman.As a critic and essayist, he is easily first in English letters.Among his best known publications are \u2018 Edmund Burke, a Historical Study,\u201d 1867; ** Critical Miscellanies.\u201d 1871, second series 1877 ; Voltaire,\u201d 1872: ** On Compromise,\u201d 1874; * Rousseau,\u201d 1876; \u2018\u201c Diderot and the En.oyclopædists,\u201d 1879; \u2018\u2018 Life of Richard Cob.den,\u201d 1890.He is also editor of the English Men of Letters series.The contract for roofing, galvanised iron work and flooring, for tenement houses on St.Catherine street, for Mr.John Irvine.nas been awarded to the Montreal Roofing 0.Here's a Little Object Lesson, Mr.E.P.Stevens, of Enosburg, Vt.has picked up a carload of lambs in this vicinity, paying $3.25 per head.The McKinley duty of seventy-five cents per head, amounted to 3150 ou the lot, If there were no duty Mr.Stevens says he would have beeu ablc to nay $4 instead of $2.25 -Waterluo Advertiser.HARRISON'S KIND \u20182 WORDS.SPEAKING AT MALONE HE WISHES CANADA ABUNDANT PROSPERITY.He Sees no Reason Why the United States Should not be Powerful and Influential.Loon Lake, N.Y., Aug.26.\u2014In the course of a speech at Malone to-day to the Grand Army of the Republic veterans, who pre- rented him with an address, President Harrison said:'\u2018We are a favored nation in that great isolation which we enjoy.We are res from the dangers of close contact with any of the great military powers of the world.Our neighbors in the North, in the Dominion of Canada, neither threaten us nor we her, (Laughter and applause.) Wo desire for them the most abundant prosperity, the fullest development of which their resources are capable, and constant peace.But it must not be supposed that this separation which we enjoy from close contact with the great powers that are for ever standing on the threatening edge of war, has left us without duties and responsibilities, as we have always in our diplomacy exercised the patience and reserve of strength and the consciousness of a right cause.I fancy that we are entering now as a people upon a career when our external influence in commerce is to be larger than ever before.We have, in a large part, completed our rcat works of internal improvement.The forests have fallen before the axes of our pioneers, and the plow now turns the soil of all that region, which we once styled the far Great West.We have accumulated prodigious wealth as a people; and I see no reason why the United States should not from this day forward step into a position of power and influence among the greai conunercial nations of the world, such as she has never enjoyed.(Applause).THE PARISIAN\u2019S PASSENGERS.The Crack Allan Liner Brings Out Many Prominent Citizens.Rimouski Wharf, Que.,

city next week.At uoon a Belgian, who is somewhat prominently known in the city, went to police beadquarters and laid before the detectives a charge agaiust a well-known French citizen, whom he accused not only of swindling him out of $2,000 in cash, but also of having alienated his wife's affections.The man wanted immediate action taken by the detectives, but he was assured by Chief Detective Cullen that the offense was of such a nature that the complaint must first be laid regularly before the court, and after a warrant had been granted by the Magistrate, the police could then act, but not before.On the advice of Mr.Cullen, the man went over to the Police Court and lodged a formal complaint the particulars of which, in the interests of justice, the court officials, for the time, reuise to make public.An Alleged Murder.Sava the Waterloo Advertiser: At the Bedford races in the early part of August a man named Racicot was brutally beater in a drunken brawl by one Jonas

FRENCH VISITORS.Putin a Pleasant Day\u2014They Will be Ban- auetted this Afternoon.Thursday's welcome to the French men of war, given amid the pouring rain and dia- mal surroundings of the w arf, by the French consul and his suite, was succeeded yesterday by a greeting no less hearty, and attended by far brighter auspices, extended by the Mayor on br 1f of the citizens of Montreal.Early in .e morning Mayor McShane, accompanied by Ald.Rolland and Ald.Cresse, and Mr.L.0.David, city clerk, proceeded on board the tlagship, where they met a \u2018hearty reception from the admiral and his staff.They were formally invited to call at the City Hall, a courtesy which was at once and graciously accepted.Half an hour after noon the city\u2019s guests stepped ashore, and on arriving at their destination were conducted to the Mayor's apartments by Ald.Rolland, where His Worship and several aldermen and ex-aldermen, together with Mr.L.O.David and French Vice-Consul Girard were awaiting their advent.After looking round the civic palace refreshments were served, during the discussion of whieh many appropriate toasts were duly honored and a great many speeches delivered.Among those who held forth were Ald.Rolland, Cresse and Stevenson, the City Clerk, Mr.L.O.David, and Hon.Peter Mitchell.The officers of the French war ships have been invited to attend the lacrosse match between the Crescent and Sherbrooke clubs on the Shamrock Lacrosse grounds to-day.THE FESTIVITIES.The program arranged for the entertainment of the naval visitors, so far, is as follows: Saturday\u2014Drive and

foolish as to retaliate against President Harrison\u2019s imposition of twenty cents a ton on all freight going through the * Boo\u201d canal to Cauadian ports, It may be a little humiliating to accept the situation, just as it would have been to abolish the rebate of eighteen cents a ton complained of by the Americans; but our Government is not so clearly in the right as to be justified in keeping up a war of retaliation, Tho rebate was certainly an evasion of the spirit of the treaty, was in effect n discrimivation such ak the treaty intended should not made ;and it is not a sufficient justification to say that the Americans have at times violated the treaty in a similar way.It may uot be an easy thing to say just what should be done under the circumstances ; but the first requisite is clear, namely, to stop fighting.Hamilton Times: One statement that has been made regarding the Welland cana) rebate system requires particular attention, The rebate, it is said, Was devised and appiied by the late Sir John Macdonald out of cousideration for his beloved city of Kingston, Montreal did not peed it; it was of no value to Hamilton, Toronto, Port Hope, Cobourg, Brockville or Prescott, but it made business for and gave money to Kingston, therefore it was applied and maintained.A political opponent of the late premier might put the case in other words.It is not forgotten that Sir John had pretty hard work to hold his seat In Kingston, Once oe twice he was defeated, and several time¢ hie majority was very small, Possibly this rebate scheme was simply one of several bribes by which he made the whle country pay for his own election to gParlinmeut.Mr.J.W.Johnston, of Belleviile, a gentleman conversant with the shipping trade, says in an interview : 1 attribute the, whole disagreeable business to the greed and want of enterprise of the City of Kingston, which has neevr provided proper facilities for handling grain consigned to that port for transhipmont to Motreal by rail and canal, It hus no elevator and no storage warehouse, and in consequence, when vessels arrive with grain and there are no Larges in port, or not a sufficicut number, the vessels are detained an uuraasou- able time.The natural consequence followed: vessels sought Ogdensburgh, whore proper facilities are p rovided.Kingston and Montreal men interested in the transportation companies vetween these places, instead of meeting the Og- densburg competition by providing equal accommodation at Kingston, resorted to the Government on the plea of protection end asked for the rebate ad dis- eriminations which in my opinion the Government was foolish to grant, They ackuowledge the unwisdom of their action by agreeing to put a stop to the rebate at the ead of the season of navigation, Don\u2019t overiook this point\u2014for this same city of Kingston, to which we owe tha present interatioval muddie, the Government has just completed a dry dock that should bave been built by private enterprise.Sir John Macdonald is dead, and Kingston now sends to Parliament a Tory whose vote counts one, but who is of no other use to the Government, It will not pay Sir John AUbott and Sir John Thompson to endanger great Canadian interests merely for the sake of Mr.Met- caife\u2019s support and vote, The same Mr.Johnston, whose statement is quoted above, says: ** { would not yield an inch to threats; communities who speck the Euglish tongue were never known to do that, Tut if we are in the wrong, there is nc humiliation in neknowledgiug it,\u201d That's the way most of us feel about it.if

Mine.The Men Imprisoned In the Pit by an Explosion, Which Sets the Mine on Fire\u2014 Only Two Men Taken Out, and They Will Die From Their Injuries\u2014Heart- rending Scenes.London, Aug.26.\u2014A Tearful mining accident occurred this morning at the Park coal pit, near Bridgend, a mining town in Glamorganshire, England.The day shift of miners had not been long in the mine before a mosk terrific explosion was heard.The ground trembled with the force of the explosion, and the people in the vicinity knew immediately that an Accident had happened.The day shift comprised 150 men, and their relatives and friends rushed to the pit mouth to learn the extent of the disaster.The explosion had caused the earth and rock to fall, and the mouth of the pit was closed.Not a single man of the 150 in the mine bad made his escape, and it was feared there has been great loss of life.Hundreds of the miners in the vicinity have volunteered their services for the work of clearing the pit mouth, and it is being pushed as rapidly as circumstances will permit.All around the pit are gathered women and children, hoping for the best, yet expecting the worst.The officials hold out all the hope possible, but it can easily be seen that they lail to make the mothers and wives believe that there is much hope.A despatch from Bridgend this eveme ing says: Though the volunteers have been working with desperate energy gince morning, it is still impossible to reach the miners who are imprisoned in the Park slip.From the indications it is believed the whole interior of the pit was set on fire by the explo sion, and that the flames are still rag« ing.It ie feared every man in the mine at the time of the explosion perished, ALL HOPE ABANDONED.Later\u2014At six o'clock this evening & res cuing party ascended to the surface bear: ing with them two men whom they had found near the bottom of the pit.Both the men were badly burned and unconscious, They had evidently inhaled fire and will die.Shortly after these men were brought up the flames from the burning pit ascended and set fire to the structures at the pit head.When the huge tongues of fire were seen leaping up from the pit, cries of horror and despair arose from the throng.Many women fainted, while the shrieks of others were heartrending.When the flames issued from the pit all hope was abandoned.Those who escaped death in the explosion have certainly been suffocated or burned te death.A CHANCE FOR A FEW.A large number of rescuers are workin in the Park slip pit.Many have been hoiste up exbausted.Seven miners, found dead, have not yet been brought to the surface, The explosion was felt over an area of 10 miles.Jt caused tremendous falls of earth which completely blocked the galleries.As the working~ extend 1700 yards, it is hoped that some miners, who were working at a good distance from the shaft wb-e the explosion occurred, will be r-scued alive.The work of searching tne Park slip pit to effect rescues was continued last night, although with the utmost difficulty, owing to noxious gases and thenecessity of cutting through obstructing debris.Since yesterday noon, when knockings were heard, searchers have perceived no sign of life anywhere.There is little doubt that 141 miners have perished.Nearly all were married and had families.The Lord Mayor of London will open a relief fund for the distressed families.If you are nervous or dyspeptic try Carter\u2019s Little Nerve Pills.Dyspepsia makes you nervous, and nervousness makes you dyspeptic ; either one renders you miserable, and these little

through, has not met with the approval of either Mr.St.George or Mr.Cunningham, the engineer of the railway, and in consequence it was decided now that Mr.Everett, the managing director, is in the city it would be better for the party to pay a visit to the spot, with a view of selecting another route.After going over the ground the general consensus of opinion was that it would be more favorable to the railway to run the line on the east side of the field.It is expected the latter line wiil be chosen.PERSONAL.Dr.Bergin, M.P., of Cornwall, fs a guest at the Hall.Ex-Governor Warner

STORAGE BATTERY.President Ross.of the Street Railway, Says It Is a Fallure.Mr.James Ross, president of the Montreal Street Railway, has addressed a letter to thd press about the storage battery asa means of propelling street cars.Ho states his objection to the system as follows: The chief objection to the storage system, and those which render it practically inapplicable on anything but a purely experimental scale, are: |.The great weight of the batteries; 2.The weakness or incapacity of the batteries; 3.The costliness of the batteries; 4.The slow and cumbersome work in handling the batteries.1.The battery that is carried in each car is made up of a number of cells.Each cell consists of a rubber or glass jar containing lead plates immersed In dilute sulphuric acid.The lead plates are prepared by elaborate chemical processes so as to render them capable of absorbing the electricity with which they are charged from a charging dynamo.The load can be charged up to a certain extent only ; that is to say, ench pound of lead will carry only a sertain definite quantity of electrieity, and no more.For batteries used on cars this guantity has been found to be about 43 ampere hours.It is apparent, therefore, that the larger the quantity of electricity it is desired to carry the greater must be the weight of the battery.Each of the oells above described, such as are made by the Accumulator company, of Philadelphia, for street car service (t 23, M.G.) weighs a little over 40 pounds.For a street car of the size to be used in Montreal, and such as are used at Milford, near Boston, 142 cells of thie kind would be required to complete the battery.The weight of the whole battery would therefore be 5,680 pounds, and when to this is added the weight of the necessary traps and fastenings, the total weight would come up to somewhat over three tons.This ponderous quantity of lead and sulphuric acid would have to be carried about in each car.2.If there could be derived from this great load an adequate and aufficient power, or à power superior to that obtainable from the overhead wire, there would be compon- pation for the work dome in carrying this load.Such, however, is not the case.With an ordinary current of 15 to 20 amperes, only about one-half the power sould be obtained from this battery that would be had from an overhead wire ; and from the overhead wire for short periods (as, for instance, when starting a car or running up a heavy grade), there could be drawn four er five times the power ordinarily taken, while from the battery a slight increase on the ordinary power would entail the risk of \u201cbuckling\u201d and destroying the lead plates.In other words, while the atorage battery car weighs 50 per cent more than a similar trolley car, it has only a half or an eighth of the power to propel it.The total horse power obtainable from such a storage battery is not more than nine; whereas from 70 to 80 horse power can be got from the two motors attached to a trolley car.3.While the battery is weak and ponderous, it is also extremely expensive, The storage battery system was used im Du.buque, Iowa, last year for running six to nine cars on the street, and has been only abandoned on account of its incapacity and great cost.Mr.Rhomberg, the president of this line, gave the Dubuque Herald of January 26, 1892, statements of the enormous cost of the batteries, and showed how impossible it was for any company to run cars in such an expensive manner.The cost of maintaining and renewing the battery he found, on the best assumption, to be 818 per cell per annum.Now, as each complete battery i case we have been considering, consi f 142 cells, and each car would have to provide with a double battery, or 284 cells in all, one battery for use on the car while the other is being charged in the charging house, the total cost por car per annum for the maintaining of batteries alone would be $4,544.When we consider that there would be needed in Montreal, over 100 moter cars, we sce that the maintenance of batteries alone war cost half à million dollars.No wonder that Mr.Rhomberg and his company decided to dispense with so expensive and poor affair as this.Besides the weight, incapacity and cost of tha batteries, there has also to be consider- 3d the utter impossibility of dealing with them on the large scale that would be required in Montreal.The storage cars though older and longer before the public than the trolley cars, have been used as yet onlv in a very small way, and have been abandoned in most cases where they have been used.New York, Philadelphia and Dubuque, owa, are among the places where the system has been tried and found quite inadequate and unworkable.There is no instance of the trolley cars having been discarded in an Place after once being introduced.At Milord, near Boston, when visited last Novem- oer, two cars were running and in Washington four cars.This is, of course, very small and petty in comparision with the requirements of Montreal, where over 100 motors will probably be required.Rach of these storage cars aiter running a trip of six or eight miles has to be run into a shed in ortier that the exhausted battery may be removed and replaced by one freshly charged.Such a cumbersome process as this going on in various parts of Montreal in sheds erected for the purpose, would be so tedions and irritating to passengers and render the service so slow and inefficient that at once oiti- zens would teg for a return to horses\u2014as Was done in Philadelphia\u2014rather than be subject to a continuance of such an annoying sxperiment.Tuch stress is laid by the advocates of the storage battery upon the example of Milford.Milford is a little place of some 2,600 inhabitants.Two storage cars are running, going in opposite directions.The car starts out from its shed ; makes its trip out about three miles to the end of the run, and then returns to the shed, where it is housed until the time arrives for the next trip.Its maximum speed is about six miles en hour, and on steep grades, such as are in plenty in Montreal, it slowly crawls at a rate of from two to two and a half miles an hour.It is sheer nonsense to point to this as an example that should be followed in Montreal.Kno total car mileage made by all the cars running at Milford is only about 130, whereas in Montreal the daily car mileage would be about ten thousand miles.Though the storage battery system has been longer tried than the trolley, statistics show how insignificant has been the progress it has made.There are now over four thousand miles of trolley system in the United States and Canada; and of the storage system about twelve.There are over 7,000 motor cars running on the trolley system; of storage battery cars barely a dozen.The storage system has been found perfectly inadequate for work on a large scale.There is not an instance anywhere of its being used to the extent that electricity will be required in Montreal, and there are man instances of its having been attempted and abandoned as worthless, Mr.Rass, after defending the trolley from charges preferred against it, goes on to make the follgwing offer: That I am prepared to stand by the statements rade in this letter, I will show by the following offer :\u2014 I will refer the question of the case of the storage battery to a committee of three, to be selected from the leading civil engineers of Canada and the United States, including the presidents of the societies of civil engineers of England, Canada, and the United States, and the professors of practical science in the McGill and Toronto Universities.1 would suggest such names as the following to choosy from:\u2014dJohn Kennedy, chief engineer to the Harbor Commissioners, Montreal; Collingwood Schreiber, chief engi- peer of (Government railways, Ottawa; Sand- ford Fleming, CMG, Ottawa; P.À.Peterson,

city engineer, Toronto; Prey Bovey, Mc.Gill University, Montreal; Prof.Galbraith, Toronto University.gentlemen shall be chosen to form a committee, and they shall decide that the storage battery is a system tit to be used for the whole street car service of the city of Montreal I will pay the whole expense of \u2018 this investigation and donate $5,000 to any charity to be previously agreed upon, provided that tho storage battery advocates will agree to do the same should the decision be adverse to their system.I have named civil engineers to conduct this investigation in order to avoid the suspicion that electrical engineers may be biased in favor of the trolley.BREVITIES.Five nuns left Montreal for Peru yes- terduy ou inissiou work, A big busiuess excursion from Toronto is cxpected

not exempt some of the older girls, whe may have reached the dignified position of being saleswomen, for many of them: require leading strings to keep then from chance associations, Would no most of them be much better off if unde: the talked of restraiut oî a domestic .\u201cWe are in à great measure what w make ourselves, be jt in the shop, factor, or in the service of a nice family.| lave seen as much respect shown girl occupying & home in a iady\u2019s service a: could be expected from positions that demand labor for a living, and the stix- ma of \u2018servant\u2019 cannot be more gallin: thau ibe slang so often heard, \u2018 nothin; but a shop or factory girl\u201d \u201cI do not admire or advocate the ligh way that seems so common of late i speaking Of labor, but surely less sai of a domestic thar other positions, th retirement more pleasing than the rustic of either shop or factory, and the con finemeni more benciicial and improv ing when under the care and culture c ladies, than the wasted hours so mau: are striving to attain, \u201cIn a well regulated home cach mai: has ber stipulated work.If done as ro quired she received nothing but kind ness and approval, aud her comforts ar well looked after.\u201cIn secking the position of housemai in any capacity, like all labor, of cour: a choice, is not oi necessity the kitcher but, as in store or factory, it depend: on our ability to fill the most desirabl position offered.II a lady has been ac customed to the service of servants, sh knows what to expect, and will not de mand anything unreasonable.\u201d The other side of the shield: An advocate of the shop-girls stat: the reasons of her belief, as follows: Why prefer this mode of gaining ou living to being servants?For severe reasons.When we take upon ourselve: the duties of saleswomen we are in formed of the rules and regulation which govern the establishment, an we expect to conform to them.Whe: we enter a house as a servant we ar subjected to variable rules prompted b, caprice and the exacting temper of th mistress, who frets away our lives by perpetual fault-finding.We have not a moment we can cal our own as servants, and even our hours of sleep are liable to be eu- croached on for some unexpected service.What time has a servant for self-im- provement if she be so inclined ?Is she permitted to indulge in a little recreation in the evening ?Has she any prospeet for advancement for faithful services ?How seldom her wages arc raised and what a narrow, hard-work- ing life she leads in her underground kitchen, where, like a mill-horse, she travels from day to day her weary rounds.The girl who sells in a store does not work under such conditions.1i she be self-respecting she wins respect, not only from her employer, but from the customer; if she be polite she meets politeness in return, and if dutiful she stands a chance of Deing rewarded by & raise in ber salary.She makes agreeable acquaintances amoung her companions in toil, and these become often fast friends.She leads a stirring, active life, which brings out her best energies, shows her more of the outside world than she could see in the kitchen, and she learns the good lessons taught by patience and endurance.She knows that there is a good deal done to elevate and make more happy the condition of saleswomen, and she knows too, that there is nothing done to improve or elevate that of servants.Above all, the saleswoman has her home, be it ever so humble, the servant has no home, she lives in some one else\u2019s, When the former is sick dear hands minister to her; when the latter is too ill for work she is packed off %o a hospital, When the saying, \u2018\u2018honor and shame from no condition rise,\u201d is fully believed in and acted on, and the faithful servant becomes the family friend, then women who now sell in stores will be more anxious to hecome servants; injthe meantime they are content to believe that -in selecting their prosent occupation they have chosen the better part.The Truce of Death.The rolling angry clouds from southward came, Painting the waves bencath a sullen black, At times a jagged lightning flame it up the track.Across the sun-lit skies the storm-clouds flow: The noonday was resolved to twilight gloam: The waves aloft in terror threw Their crests of foam.Then came a pale white cloud ; itseemed to ride Between the tempest and the raging sea.> A flag of truce,\u201d the landsman cried, Laughing in glee, \u201c Ay, ay,.\" the seaman said,and as he spoke Across the waters swept a chilling breath, \u2018While thundering the tempest broke.\u201cThe truce of death.Flave! Scott Mines.The Famous Woman Stumper of Kansas.Mrs.Mary E.Lease, ** the woman who zealped Ingalls,\u201d is asactive as ever in Kansas politics.She was born in Ireland, and came to America when a little girl.Her father went into the Union army and died at An\u2018ersonville.Her home now is at Wichita, where her husband is a pharmacist.They formerly lived on a farm ; but failing to make farming profitable, he bought a drug store and she began to study of law.In the union labor campaign of 1888 Mrs.Lease made several speeches, but it was not until the Alliance movement of 1890 that she gained wide notority for the violent manner in which she denounced \u2018* the oppressors and betrayer of the people.\u201d In that campaign she delivered hundreds of fiery appeals and became the delight of the new party.Gen.Weaver, now the People\u2019s party candidate for President, introduced her to an audience once as * Our Queen Mary,\u201d and the phrase was cheered to the echo.Mrs.Lease is tall and stately in bearing, and has black cyes.She isn\u2019t handsome, but she is an eloquent and powerful speaker, and is very much in sarnest in all that she says and does.A Sailor Husband, Oh, he goes away singing Singing o'er the sea!

I was cruel to send you away, very cruel.A father\u2019s love for you made me think it im- ossible for even a husband to love you as did.Shall I ever see you again, or shall I see you dead\u2014dead as this once beautiful blossom, which can never again help to sweeten my days and help to brighten an old man\u2019s life ?Oh, come back to life again, and bring your little one with you.Come\u2014come\u2014come !\u201d He entered the house weeping.On the morning of the next day the children were on their way to school.They always passed Rose Glen, and old Holloway would invariably be at the gate.But this morning the children seemed more excited than usual ; something had evidently happened, or was about to happen, which made their little hearts beat faster than ever.They had started earlier than was their wont, for somehow they had got to know that it was \u2018\u2018grandfather\u2019s\u201d birthday, and each wanted to be there first.On, on they went, langhing, shouting and clapping their hands in delight.What was there to stop the happy ripple of their little tongues?It would seem-\u2014nothing.They were children \u2014little children\u2014and were as free as the birds which were singing in the trees and on the hedgerows about them.But, as they turned the toad at the top of the hill which led down té the home of the roses, their laughter became silent, and their lips ceased to move.They gathered together in a bnnch, not in afiright, but more in childish sympathy at the sight before them.A woman sat on a grassy mound.Her face was pale, her cheeks pinched, her eyes looked as though they had shed many tears; but yet how pretty she was! She was dressed all in black\u2014there was crape on her cloak and bonnet.She held something muted up in her arms.\u2018The children looked and guessed it w=s a baby.The woman smiled and seemed to invite them to come near.Then one of the children gave the woman some flowers, and a flush of happiness came into her poor, wan face.; \u201cWould you like to see my little boy?\u201d she asked.And all the children gathered round while the mother drew aside the scarf from round her baby\u2019s neck, so that they might see it the better.It, too, had tiny black bows on its little hat.\u201cOh, how grandfather would love to see him cried one of the children.\u201cMay we take him to grandfather?It\u2019s his birthday to-day.It would make him so happy.\u201d nd who is grandfather ?\u2019 she asked.belief that she ain\u2019t got no heart saipe a8 other wimmin.And sassy?! Lor\u2019!\u201d .IL In spite of what he had heard, or perhaps because of what he has heard, all things, even the melancholy town itself, grew rose colored on Dave\u2019s sunny eyes.\u2018ith his unfailing cheerfulness he waited hopelessly for news of his appointment at Red Valley, and hovered, as if fascinated, around Engine No.44.Neither the boys nor old Bryan were slow to notice this, the latter having accepted such attentions periodically from all the young men.It was so inevitable a roceed- ing that up to the time of the Middleton's dance they paid no attention to it.But that night something extraordinary gathered around her eageriy, notwithstanding the fact that she had a stout little whip in her hand.They had something new and strange to tease her about, \u201cBrier Rose,\u201d called out Jim, as she drew rein, \u201cyou don\u2019t care nothin\u2019 about dancin\u2019, do you?\u201d \u201cYou'd ruther wouldn't you, now \u201cD'you like the name o* Dave, or do you reckon you'd rather have Comstock 1\u201d Rose looked from the one to the other as the bottled up taunts fell rapidly upon her ears, her checks and lips growing scarlet.For once her ready tongue failed her.Small need to ask them what they meant.Too well she knew.But was her subjugation apparent in such a trifle?And so soon?And Dave as yet had said nothing.Emboldened by her silence, they went further.\u201cWhat does he say about it ?\u201d The shamed crimson leaped to her very temples and receded, leaving her face piti- tully white.Her wounded pride now panted for but one thing\u2014a way out.Probably he knew it, too.She saw him coming down the street.\u201cDo you love him?Say, Brier Rose, do you love Dave?\u201d cried the one furthest from er whip.Her courage came back at Dave\u2019s approach and the spell of her unwonted silence was broken.\u2018Do I love him?\u201d she cried, lookin fairly in the face.\u201cI come nearer to him 1\u201d She turned her horse sharply, and the blows the boys had expected fell on her fiery little pony.He craned his neck and went up the strect on a dead run, but fast a8 Rose flew the grieved look in Dave Com- stock\u2019s blue eyes kept pace with her.That night Joe fidgeted around, unable to decide whether or not he should speak to Dave about the occurence of the afternoon.Dave's genial smile and cherry hopefulness were gone.He sat with his face buried in his folded arms.Joe coughed noisily and said nothing.Dave looked down at his poor maimed oot, \u201cJoe, do you know that little baby I saved from the wreck had brown cyes like Brier Rose?I remember the baby smiled when I held it out to the men.You know my foot was caught and I couldn\u2019t move, I\u2019ve never seen Brier Rose smile at me that way.If I had saved her perhaps she would.Do you think so, Joe?\u201d At home, Rose was thinking of the story of Dayc's bravery in the wrecked train, of the lives he had saved, ot his defense of her.And to-day in return she had mocked him.Aye, if the look he gave her spoke truly, she had cut him to the heart.Tears \u2014tears in the eyes of Brier Rose ! \u2014 .set all the evenin\u2019, him atin\u2019 .IIL The position of telegraph operator at Red Valley was given to Dave Comstock.The afternoon freight, heavily loaded, had just pulled clumsily out of the Weeping Willow station, with Dave on the rear platform of the way car.The 44, having come down on the rear of the freight as second engine, now stood on the siding, waiting to back to Horseshoe for the midnight express.Old Bryan was up in a crowd of men in front of the post office.Brier Rose watched him anxiously.As long as he kept away from the Owl she felt easy.He knew she was watching him.He also knew that she would not hesitate to come after him, if the Owl proved too strong an attraction.Therefore he kept away.She txod fearlessly along the side of the boiler, #bbing the hand rail with a black oil sodden cloth.She touched the engine as if she loved it.Every part of it shone like the sun.Every valve worked with recision.Every screw was secure.Joe aughed to see her fling a shovelful of coal into the furnace like a born fireman.His own machine called his attention from the 44.Then Rose heard him cry out, and, springing down, she rushed into the station, \u201cA runaway engine coming this way !\u201d he said hoarsely.\u201c\u2018Spite work of a discharged engineer.No one on her\u2014going twenty- five miles an hour\u2014a single track\u2014Dave\u2019s train only going fifteen\u2014the 44 and that ore car on the only siding between here and Red Valley.My God \u201cWhere is it?\u201d cried Brier Rose.\u201cIt broke away from Horseshoe Gap.Message in from Prairie City.It\u2019s already passed Prairie City, headed straight for here.It\u2019s bound to catch Dave before his train gets to Red Valley.\u201d Rose turned white to her very lips.She covered her face with her brown hands.Only for a moment, though.Then she flung back her head and looked Joe full in the face.\u201cI can save him !\u201d she cried.She sprang for her engine and climbed into the cab.\u201cRose! Rose !\u201d roared Jim in dismay.Rose turned her white face toward him imploringly.\u2018Be at the switch, Joe, and listen for my signals, as you value Dave's life she cried.Then she pulled the throttle valve out to its full extent.The engine shivered all over, and at fifty-two miles an hour the 44, driven by Brier Rose, leaped down the track to mcet the runaway.Iv.There was not a moment to lose.A cer tain number of miles, lessening every moment, lay between the lumbering freight, with Dave on board, and the cruel, senseless runaway engine.Between them was Briar Rose, with just a chance of safety.Ste knew that a loosened rail or any obstruction would hurl her to her dcom, and still not avert disaster from Dave.The whistle of tho 44 shrilled out an unearthly screech continually to warn even the birds from fluttering too near the messenger of life.The engine rocked from side to side at the dizzy rate of speed.For the first time the odor of hot oil made Rose feel faint.She hung half out of the cab window, panting for breath and her hands clinging crazily to the window for support.Suddenly she saw smoke in the distance.Larger and larger grew the black speck on the track.Faster and faster flew the 44 to meet it.Nearer and nearer came the runaway.When she could plainly see the shape of the approaching engine she closed the throttle with a rush that made the 44 tremble.She reversed her engine, and at less than twenty-five miles an hour began running away from the runaway.Slowly, almost imperceptibly, it gained on her brave engine.A horrible fear took possession of her that it was coming too slowly, and that they would both reach Dave's train before she stopped the runaway.She changed the speed and let the engine gain on her faster.\u201cI can signal for the siding if I fail,\u201d thought Brier Rose.\u2018\u2018Joe will obey my signal.\u201d But she shuddered.In sight of Weeping Willow at last.The 44 whistled frantically.Rose signalled for a clear track, and only a train length apart the 44 and the runaway flew past the little station platform, crowded with every man, woman and child in town.Joe understood her plan now.He bounded into the station, frenzied with excitement, telegraphed to Red Valley what Brier Rose was doing ; then, from sheer nervousness, he squeezed Foxy until he yelped wildly.Out of sight of Weeping Willow and Dave's train in the distance, nearer and nearer came the runaway.Rose braced herself for the shock.Crash! came the cowcatcher of the runaway into the unprotected rear of the gallant 44.Rose had loosened her hold, and the concussion flung her to the floor, with her soft cheek against the cab seat.Faint with her fall she gathered herself together and shut off the steam.Then with the nose of the runaway viciously pushing the 44, Brier Rose crept like a cat over the tender, down over the trembling engine, and on her hands and knees she crawled over to the runaway, up along the boiler side into the cab, and crashed the throttle shyt when Children Cry for Pitcher\u2019s Castoria.THE MONTREAL HERALD, SATURDAY, AUGUST.27, the 31 was WILTiin o car's length of Davids train.Vv.When she came

of the Religiows Census.De We have time and again referred to what have been called \u2018\u2018 the curiosities of the last census.\u201d Perhaps iniquities would have been a better title, but under the head of ouriosities they have been written up by a large section of the Canadian press, so we still adhere to that heading.We have called for explanation of some of the grosser errors, but in vain; and for the next nine years we shall see speakers in Parliament and writers in the press all taking as text the figures from a census which in many parts is fallacious and misleading.*\u2018 False in one false in all\u201d is a proverb with a great amount of common sense in it, and these figures, wherever tested, stand condemned.An indignant correspondent from Three Rivers sends us the following letter, and his queries seem quite pertinent 3 To the Editor of the Herald.Sir :\u2014Many of tho intelligent citizens of this ancient city are justly indignant at an item of the recent consus which is going the rounds of tho press, Papers in Montreal, Sherbrooke, Halifax, etc, represent bulletin No, 9 as according to the Protestant churches of Three Rivers, the following magnificent numbers : Church of England.vrurocso0u, 2 Methodist.dersscensace 10 Presbyterian.Unclassed.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026secanssnce a ronnes «use B A total Protestant population of twenty- five including, it is prosumed, men, women and children.1t is well known that the Protestant population of Three Rivers is not as large as it was once, and the city in every respect feels the reduction keenly.But the actual state of matters is happily very different from that set forth in Bulletin No, 9\u2014if the press does justice to that bulletin.In proof of this I may cite the foliowing fact : I was in one of the Protestant churches at the morning service last Sunday, and there were present at that service by actual count ninety-six (96), not including the officiating clergyman.This 1s not a large congregation, to be sure, but it is nearly four times as large ae Bulletin No.9 would allow if all the Protestants were amalgamated and the \u201c unclassed \u201d thrown in.The Protestants of Three Rivers would like information In connection with this matter on the following points, and will be 0* Ygod if The \u2014 \u2018Herald with its~=7¥ born enterprise will help them : 1.Docs the press correctly represent Bulletin No.9 in this matter ?2.If so, is this item of the census due to error or intention?3.Is this a fair sample of the value of the recent census for the rest of the Province of Quebec?(I shall not say Dominion, for it is hoped that in the other Provinces men of ability and candor were employed).4.If the Bulletin dealing with religion is unreliable through the willful mis-representation or the incapacity of the enumerator, are the other bulletins of any value§ This one, in the matter under consideration, is mischievous.Meantime, lot us hope the error is due to the printer's devil, J.R.M.We will answer our correspondent\u2019s questions in the order in which he gives them.(1) Does the press correctly represent Bulletin No.9 in this matter ! Answer.Bulletin No.9 is exactly as quoted.It gives as the religious statistics of Three Rivers : Catholics, 8,809 ; Church of England, 2; Mothodists, 6; Presbyterians, 11; all others, 6.Total population of Three Rivers, 8,834.The vital and mortuary statistics of the Catholic population of the Province of Quebec, compiled by the Provincial Board of Health, gives the Catholic population of Three Rivers in 1890, es 8,400, which would leave the Protestants of all denominations 340, which is probably nearer the mark.Comparing the Catholic population, as claimed by the Board of Health compilation in 1890, with that given in the census there are some strange discrepancies.Take the following for example: Vital statistics, Census.1890.1891.Compton.oveiierrme 9,354 11,150 Hochelagnv.v.qee oven 85,208 68,755 Huntingdon.\u2026.8,692 7,011 Missisquoi\u2026 oes 9,531 10,146 Montreal.a.161,290 134,142 Ottawa county.42,087 61,460 Pontiae.asus 7,503 12,966 Quebec county.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026 17,361 18,368 Queobeccity.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026 58.500 58,554 Sherbrooke.6,668 9,851 Bt.John.reaterenn .9,743 10,673 Bt.Maurice .9,811 12,253 It will be observed that the discrepancies are far too great to be accounted for by the fact that a year elapsed between the censuses.2.Is this item of the census due to error or intention?Unanswerable, but trust it is error only.3.Is this a fair sample of the value of the recent census?Answer\u2014We believe it is.We have discovered so many unaccountable discrepancies, particularly in the industrial census, that we place little faith in it.The answer to No.3 is sufficient.The case made out against census bulletin No.9 is quite sufficient to demand explanation, and we trust during the next session of Parlidment the matter will be forced upon the attention of Government.The religious census of Three Rivers may be a matter-of small interest in itself, but as throwing doubt upon all the imposing array of figur: that have been brought together at such great ox- pense ta the country it becomes important.Hints to Prevent Cholera.The progress of the dread pestilence in Europe is sufficiently marked, if not to excite apprehension, at least to suggest the desirability of taking every precaution to prevent it obtaining a footing in our own city.We do nos write with the idea of exciting alarm, or for the sake of mere sensationalism, but to refuse to acknowledge all possibility of danger is to imitate the tactics of the ostrich who buries his head in the sand and because he can no longer see his enemy fondly imagines he is in perfect security.The approach of cooler weather greatly lessens the probability of contagion crossing the Atlantic this year, but by no means does away with all reasons for precaution, If infection has seized upon the slums of the great European capitals there is a chance that while discase may not show during the winter the germs will still exist and propagate themselves in their congenial surroundings, to be hatched into virulence by the suns of next summer.This, while it may bring the danger nearer to us for next year, at the same time gives ample time to prepare for it.The city generally should be in a very fair condition.Our streets, for cleanliness, will compare favorably with any city.The danger lies chiefly in the back yards and lanes, and, above all, in the great number of cess pits still allowed to remain in some neighborhoods.A vigorous enforcement of sanitary measures, such as scavenging, washing, cleansing and whitewashing, will go far to remove all dangers of contagion.\u20acareful inspection by the health officers, and, where necessary, compulsory measures to enforce cleanliness, should be within the province of the civic government, which should act vigorously.During the cooler weather great care should be given to seeing that cess pits are cleaned out and disinfected, The mention, however, of these most prolific sources of contagion suggests the desirability of doing away with them altogether.Now that water is allowed free for that purpose there is no excuse for them at all, and the city council would be warmly supported in appealing for power to compel all proprietors to replace them by water closets.Such action, we venture to think, would not only be a wise precaution against cholera, but would greatly reduce the normal death rate of the city.Sweeney's Nose an Object Lesson.Grand Master Frank Sweeney's nose may never have been a very handsome one, and after Arthur Quinn had held Frank's head in chancery for a few minutes it must have presented a hideous spectacle.A cut, like the patent medi- oine advertisements of \u201c\u2018before taking\u201d and \u201c\u2018aftor taking,\u201d would probably show it as Hiberman pug before taking, while the administration of Quinn's gruel turned it into the Romin specics\u2014Roam- ing all over his face.A colored print of \u2018\u2018before and after\u201d would be a capital thing to hang as a sort of \u2018Memento mori\u201d in every labor lodge, exactly opposite the chairman's seat.We do not wish to insinuate that Sweeney deliberately led his order wrong in the late strike.There are many ways of doing harm besides those dictated by a really fiendish desire to do wrong.\u2018\u201c Evil is wrought by want of thought as well as want of heart.\u201d No doubt the mischief was done more through vanity and a want of strength to stand up against evil advisers.There are loafers, strange as it may seem, even in trade societies.There are always a few members who have nothing to lose by a few weeks\u2019 holiday, and who look forward to a strike as an exciting kind of pastime.Such men have always plenty of time to attend the meetings, and if they have \u2018\u2018 the gift of gab\u201d become a power in the organization.The older and more sottled members, the family men whose interests are all in the city in which their home is made, and to whom a strike failure often means being thrown out of a position it has taken them years of steady work to attain, are gencrally not so ready to accept positions in the lodge.Their time is occupied in other ways.Like Parson Wilbur\u2019s hero : \u2018\u201c Their wives want them for home consumption,\u201d and their interest in the society is mainly confined to keeping themselves in benefit.It thus comes about that the first steps leading to a strike are éntirely controlled hy the less conservative raembers, but those most bitterly opposed are obliged to go with the stream when the matter is once started.Other Masters, before Sweeney's time, have inaugurated strikes in which all the odds were against them, and while bringing ruin on thousands and causing immense public inconvenience have at one step come down from the position of popular demi-gods to complete obscurity.It remained for Sweeney after heroically posing as Ajax, defying the lightning of the capitalists, to descend to bathos with his nose wrapped up in sticking plaster.Let the picture be taken and used as we suggest.It will be a reminder to other leaders that before entering ona fight they must count the cost.They must be sure of allies and public sympathy.There must be no coquetting with lawless men\u2014and above all it should remind them that they must not be led away by the homage paid them in the society.Their position in the eyes of the public is not measured by the applause of the lodge-room, and though by the statutos of the society they may be called reverend, illustrious, high and mighty grand masters, to the outside ; si Wi | } rs , = - \u2014 Jona EE TALL RIGHT, 30g US THAN! WE\" WONT, « Se 8804 FT PREMIER ABBOTT AND THE CANAL TOLLS -From Gripe ms A world they are still plain Tom, Dick or Harry, with the title of Mr., by courtesy.A Chance for The Star.Mr.James Ross\u2019s letter, an abstract of which is published elsewhere, will go far towards convincing the public of the justice of the opinion hazarded a few days ago by The Herald that the storage battery system as a means for propelling electric cars is not beyond the experi mental stages.Mr.Ross offers to\u2019 pay the expenses of a committee of investigation and contribute $5,000 besides to charity if the decision is that the storage system is applicable to Montreal.But he wants the advocates of the system to be liable to a similar forfeit in the event of the decision being favorable to the trolley.Here is an opportunity for The Star.It seems very much inclined to believe that the storage system is the better one.Let it call Mr.Ross's bluff.If it succeeds in proving its point it will be a better advertisement for our twinkling contemporary than the white-washing of Cape Diamond was.Even if it does not succeed some deserving Montreal charity will receive needed assistance.The Star should certainly exploit the resources of its advertising type in the attempt to get sufficiently large and hideous looking letters to properly head up a double-leaded announcement of the acceptance of Mr.Ross\u2019s challenge Orb Doctor WATTS when he wrote \u201cLet dogs delight to bark and bite,\u201d was probably living in some pleasant retreat, where the only dog on the premises was the honest watch dog, whose bark 1s said to be a pleasant welcome home to belated wayfarers.Sherbrooke street residents apparently delight neither in bark nor bite, The bark seems to drive them crazy and they write wearisome letters to newspapers calculated to inoculate their readers with their madness.If things are as bad as they assert why do they not indict the owners for the nuisance in the ordinary manner ?\u201cENGLAND, AMERICA AND GERMANY have jointly notified the King of Samoa that their men-of-war will be placed at his disposition to enforce payment of taxation and thus bring his rebels to submission,\u201d Here's richness! here\u2019s a mighty pother ! here\u2019s a tempest in a teapot! The total population of Samos is about equal to that of St.Mary's ward, and it takes a combination of the three mightiest navies in the world to make some of them cash up.Some people are firm that way, though.We have known people right here in Montreal who could not be made to pay up by an alliance of all the 8reat powers and all the American republics combined.It takes a deal of pressure.to get blood out of à stone.HELEN HEATHCOTE\u2019S BUDGET.Social and Personal Notes of Interest to Montrealers, Mrs.James E.Cameron and her mother, Mrs.Dakers, returned from the seaside this week.Mrs.A.W.Ogilvie and Miss Arnton have gone to visit Mrs.Playfair at her beautiful house at Sturgeon Bay, Lake Huron.On Wednesday evening a large party gathered to bid good bye to Mr.and Mrs.A.W.Morris, who were starting off on a most delightful yachting expedition, They are the guests of Mr, E.Fulton, the president of the Consumers\u2019 Cordage Co., whose yacht, the Gadabout, is one of the mos; beautiful on American waters.It cost upwards of $60,000 and is very perfect.The party consisted of Mr.and Mrs.Fulton, Mr.and Mrs, A W.Morris and Mr.Harry Molson.They intend visiting the Maritime Provinces and will probably go to New York.The yacht carries a crew of ten men.Mrs.Wallis Trotter and children passed through town from Scarboro Beach on their way home to St.John\u2019s.Mrs.John Hodgson and family have returned to town from Rockland.The family of Dr.Duncan McEachran are at Dorval, Dr.McEachran is very well pleased with his trip to the Northwest, and reports crops good, and things generally satisfactory.Mr.and Mrs, Vincent Meredith have returned to town from the seaside.Mr.and Mrs.Barclay are expected home very soon from Murray Bay.Mr.James Ross, president of the Street Railway, has returned to town from Rye Beach.Mr.Cunningham,the engineer for the Electric Street Car system, hasbeen in town for the past week.He was cabled for from England, to come and take charge of the new road.Mrs.Cunningham is in Toronto, visiting her family.The Hon.Mackenzie Bowell left Ottawa on Monday night, for a trip to the Northwest.When the train reached Port Hope the ministerial car broke down, and had to be switched off for repairs.It was fortunate the accident happened in a get-at-able place.Mrs.Hugh Allan returned from Quebec this week.She is still the guest of her father-in-law, Mr.A.Allan, at Iononteh.Mr.Andrew Taylor has gone to Metis to spend a week with his wife, who has been summering there.Mr.Lansing Lewis has gone to Murray Bay for his vacation.Dr.and Mrs, Higginson are here from Winnipeg.Mr.Widmer Nelles has returned from Cap a P\u2019Aigle, where he spent two weeks with his family.Mr.Fenwick, of the Reddaway company, has just returned from New York, but he will go back again on Monday and will spend most of his time there, owing to change in the management.The engagement is announced of Miss Edythe Allan to Mr.Rutledge, of Winnipeg.The marriage of Mrs.Alfred White to Major Wilson, of Quebec, is arranged for the fall.Mrs.White is a daughter of the late Sir Hugh Allan.Mr.and Mrs.S.H.Ewing and family have returned to town from Cape Elizabeth.Mrs.Sterry Hunt has returned from Calumet to University street.Mr.and Mrs.Joseph Gould and family have returned from Scarboro Beach to town.Mr.Peter Meredith left town on Thursday evening to spend a couple of weeks at St.Patrick's with his father, the Chief Justice.It is reported that Mr.Duncan Fraser, son of the late Dr.Fraser, left his property to his lawyer in Australia.The beautiful anomalies of the law are often the topics of conversation, but something I heard the other day seems almost incredible, only that I know the facts to be absolutely true.A gentleman owed a small account to a carpenter, \u2018\u2018arunning account.\u201d He went several times to pay it; then he left the money ready for the man when he should call, but he never could be seen at his workshop, neither did he call.Some of the work was done late in May last or early in June.Some time in July a lawyer's letter came asking for immediate payment, charging interest ! and a dollar or so lawyer's fees.My friend, as her husband was out, went immediately to the lawyer's office ; he was out, but a small boy offered her pen and paper to leave a memorandum.Sitting down to write this she was horrified to see her husband\u2019s name amongst a number of others against whom \u2018\u2018suit\u201d had been taken that day, and signed by a man who calls himself a \u2018Financial and Collecting Agent,\u201d and in plain English is a \u2018\u2018terror;\u201d by the way I should have said plain \u201cslang,\u201d Perhaps in English he would be called a rogue, if nothing worse.She thought that letter must have been delayed and at once looked at it.It had only been posted the revious evening at 5 p.m., and this was cfore 12 o'clock.To cut a long story short, she finally saw the lawyer, who said he had nothing to do with the matter, it was altogether in the collector's hands.\u201c\u2018 But the letter was signed by you.\u201d \u201cI have no recollection of the matter, but \u2018So\u2019-and-*So\u2019 often gets a lot of signed blanks from me and then fills them out ; however, I will send you a detailed account.\u201d This was à response to a statement that the account was incorrect.Time after time did the lady in question mount two flights of stairs.Never could she see the lawyer.The collector was away for his holidays.A writ had been handed in, but my friend, in happy ignorance of the exigencies of the law, thought that since she never could see anybody (and she always left @ piece of paper, saying she had called, in the letter-box), that nothing could happen.Imagine her surprise one morning when she was sick in bed, at the information that two men were down stairs who had come to stay.The husband was away.She was too sick to move, at least so she thought, so these men proceeded to take an inventory.The amount sued for was about twelve dollars.Then they asked for a guarantee{signed, that the people would not decamp suddenly.Then they sent up a signed inventory, \u2018\u2018one piano, thirty-six pictures in gold frames, two violins in cases, one large gold framed mirror.\u201d With this, the information that unless settled before twelve o'clock the whole thing would be published.1 can assure you that it was nota very sick woman, but a very mad one, who was in that lawyer\u2019s office shortly after.The lawyer was in, but he positively declared the case was not his, he knew nothing of it.The collector was not in, so she had to possess her soul in patience, but how she did fume inwardly ! Finally, at about ten minutes to twelve the other \u2018\u2018 gentleman \u201d came in, and on being spoken to, he knew noth- ing\u2014it was not his case, but the lawyer\u2019s.He didn\u2019t see how he could stop the case from appearing in print.These men expected to get their commission from the printing, etc., etc.After some very explicit remarks from the victim, they consulted and decided they would settle the case, and prevent its going into court.The settlement footed up the nice little bill of twenty- two dollars and \"sixty-five cents, although the bailiffs had left a nemo, to the effect that it was \u2018three dollars less than that amount.Isit not a shame that people should be subjected to such outrages?My friend described her feelings at listening to these two sharks discussing the \u2018\u2018pros and cons,\u201d and finally consenting as a favor to try and stop the printing.How she did long for a horse whip and strength to use it! But she made up her mind, that if they added on another cent she would let the whole thing go.Fortunately they did not imagine the husband's feelings on taking up a Star to see his household furniture advertised under the heading \u2018\u2018Bailiff's Sale.\u201d Herex HEATHCOTE.Excellent for Training.I have found St.Leon water the very best thing to drink while in training and have used it every morning with the most satisfactory results during the last couple of seasons.It keeps the system in good condition and is superior, in my judgment, to all other drinks for the athlete.With best wishes, I remain, sincerely yours, W.M Carman, champion bicyclist of Canada, 16 Shelbournet street.Have you tried the PIyd rte rrnty \"CABLE EXTRA\" CIGARS?LEON W.WASHBURN\u2019S \u2014\u2014ALL NEW\u2014\u2014 ENORMOUS RAILROAD SHOWS WILL EXHIBIT AT MONTREAL Friday and Saturday, Sep.2nd and 3rd ' on the oldCrescent lacrosse grounds, Delorimier Avenue.This is the best show on earth.No misrepresentation, no lies, nothing tno good for the people's money.50 skilled performers.A stud of handsome performing horses; a troup of western cow boys, The $10,000 steam calliope.Beautiful lady aerial artists, the largest performing eclephant in the world, woighs fifteen tons, and is four inches taller than Jumbo.Grand free street p rade daily at 10a.m.Two performances daily, 2 and § p.m.The Grand Trunk and Canadian Pacific Railways will give special rates of one fare for round trip, including admission to the big show, from all stations.Admission 25 cents for everybody.£71118 Cheaper to go and see the WASH.BURN SHOW than it is to stay at home, EDUCATIONAL.| KINDERGARTEN Froebel\u2019s System and Preparatory School 37 VICTORIA STREET.The Misses McIntosh will resume their classes on Monday, Sept.12th, and will be at home on and after Thursday.Sept.8th, to re ceive applications.ELIOCK SCHOOL.1143 DORCHESTER St., Montreal.Directors\u2014Sir J.Hickson, President: R.B.Angus, Esq., Vice-President; R.Mackay, Esq.WW, Ogilvie, Esq, G.W.Stephens, Esq., Rev.J.Williamson, Rector.PRIMARY SCHOOL\u2014For Boys from 8 to Il.SECONDARY SCHOOL For 60 boys, graded into 6 classes, number in any Class Feing limited to 12.Advanced courses in English, Mathematics, Classics, Modern Languages, ete.special préparation for admission to the Arts and Science Faculties of the Universitics, the College, Kingston, and tho Royal Military oston, as well Mass, Institute of Technology, as for commercial life.HYSICAL TRAINING.Hall for Physical Training, Gymnastics, Drill, Etc.BOARDING.Superior accommodation for 14 resident pupils, each having separate room, atfording to city boys the udvantages of a boarding sc 100} with the opportunity of spending two days of cvery week at home.The next session opens on Wednesday, Sept., at 10 o'clock.Prospeo- jus on application to7 J.WILLIAMSON, Rector.Vs Montroll (SE He ~~ (ESTABLISHED 1864.)

but the strong feeling was noticeable ere and the lack of business was due more from scarcity of stock than anything else.We are of the opinion that holders of stock have an excellent outlook.The cen- tinued ease of money is the key to the sit- ation, and investors are at a loss to place thelr funds to advantage.This always has a bull effect on stocks, and the present movement, is largely traceable to this influence.The banks have more money than they know what to do with, and are offering it freely in the street at 3% per cent.for call loans, Brokers are talking 3 per cent.in the near future if things do not take a turn in the other direction.Changes since the beginning of the week are as follows : , Advanced, Telegraph 1, Cable 14, Richelieu ÿ, Duluth à, Duluth preferred 4, Pacific 1, Colored Cotton 114, Dominion Cotton 1 Bell Telephone 1, Northwest Land À, Colored Cotton Bonds 1, Bank of Montreal 1 And Union à.Declined, Street Railway } and Royal loctric 23., Unchanged, Gas, Montreal Cotton, Onta- Tio Bank, People's, Molsons, Merchants, Ommerce, Quebec, and Ville Marie.New York Stocks.Messrs, La Montagne, Clarke & Co., 183 Bt.James street, have received the following over their direct private wire: The decision of Chancellor McGill has been made public, and sustains our prediction that it would be unfavorable to the ing leages in New Jersey.Now the THE MONTREAL HERALD, SATURDAY, AUGUST 27, 1892.question arises, will the temporary inju tion be made permanent by the T ours \"ot final resort?Until this is answered we venture to predict further an irregular movement in the coal stocks in the market.It is generally understood that whatever the outcome, the policy outlined by the present management of the Reading system will be strictly adhered to regardless of exchange of nominal heads of departments.Yet the price of Reading opencd at a decline of 13 per cent as compared with last night's final price, and sales to realize profits were noticeably in the weakness of the whole list of active stocks, both railway and industrial, There was some buying and subsequent recovery, but it was only temporary.The principal buyers of Reading have been Philadelphia houses, but many claim that it was to cover a large short interest at that centre.There was pronounced weakness in sugar refining, which declined sharply on heavy realizing sales.Whiskey lost 9 points on a rumor that a rival concern was to compete for A portion of its somewhat demoralized business, and nothing further is being said of increased dividends, The screws were put on in New England, and weak shorts were made to cover.The price was put up to 838, There is nothing lew\u2019 concerning this \u2018propert except that Mr.Corbin wis Pain\u2019 to Fe a prominent buyer of the stock at the low prices.If that is the case further interest.Ing developments are likely to appear.- There is little love lost between.Mr.Corbin and the present head of the New England road.The Grangers were dull and firm.The Gould stocks also showed signs of realizing, but the net loss is slight.In the present temper of speculation Missouri Pacific is as likely to advance ag any of the active stocks, and purchases on a scale seem advisable.The following table shows the fluctuations and sales of the active stocks in Montreal during the past week : 3 2 2 Description.ë à & Telegraph.1464 147 | 1464 1474 Cable, Cees ness 145} 181 159} 161 250 Stroct Railway.| 236 230 229 229% 85 Gas sr rersesens000 10 210 210 210 75 Richelicu, .T0 70% i 703 765 Duluth.-.| 184 14 13 14 1500 do preferred,.] 323] 33 32 33 100 Canala Pacitic.| 883 | 894 834 |\" 893 1425 Montreal Cotton.| 1283 199 128% 128} 111 Col'rd Cotton Co.| 974 109 978 109 631 *Domini'n Cotton| 200 2014 j 200 2014 185 Bell Telephone\u2026| 160 161 160 y Royal Eloctric,.{ 175 175 172 Northwest Land.| 76;

Chicago, Aug.26.\u2014The provision pit furnished the greatest attraction for traders early, owing to the report of 31,000 hogs at the yards, against 17,000 estimated, with prices 20 to 25 cents lower, The opening was very irregular, but generally at lowest | prices of the duy.Pork was off 15to 35 cents per barrel.Lard, 174 to 20 cents per tierce.Ribs, 10 to 23 ¢ nts per hundred.Packers appeared to be the principal buyers ; the market immediately recovered, nearly everything closing firm, with prices irregular.The greater portion of the trade in grain was the changing over and preparing for the settlement ol September contracts, The feeling was quite bearish, and the fine weather and reports of cholera had a depressing effect on both wheat and corn.At the decline in wheat there was some large buying by export houses, presumably for export.The demand for flour is gool.Mills appear to be running to their full capacity.aris flour was quoted 10 to 30 centimes higher.While the public dispatches quoted Liverpool wheat a shade lower, some private telegrams quoted it higher, and brought buying orders.\u201cOne lot of California spot wheat sold in London at about 3d.lower than previous sale, but No.1 California for prompt delivery was ÿ to 14c higher.Holders of corn are not so confident of their position, and showed a disposition to sell on weak spots.Receivers think receipts will be liberal.Chicago Notes.Estimated receipts for to-morrow \u2018are: Wheat, 530 cars;

the price was $110.To-day is the last day on which cattle will be gold on this market, and buyers as well as scllers of milch cows are expected henceforth to repair to St.Gabriel Market, Point St.Charles, or else to the East End Abattoir.It is probable that the St.Gabriel Market will be the chief cow market, as it is more convenient for both buyer and seller.Bonsecours Retail Market.| A good business was done at the market this morning owing to a large number of buyers being present.The vegetable market was mostly composed of appies, onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, green corn and celery.New potatoes are as high as $1.35 a bag, corn was very plentiful and sold a little lower.The prices of California fruit took quite a drop, the market being pretty well filled.California peaches went down 15 cents, plums 5 cents and pears 20 cents.Grapes aro rather scarce yet.Bananas and watermelons remain about the same.Small fruit is getting to be very soft, blackberrics were selling for 90 cents a bucket.Some nice apples were offered from $1.50 to $1.75.The feature of the market was the large advance in poultry and game.Poultry is very scarce owing to the farmers neglecting to attend to their stock, and also the recent rains had a great deal to do with ihe rise.Owing to the\u2019 large demand it waa picked up at any price.In the last two or three days it has advanced 20 per cent., although a fall is expected very shortly.Grain still continues to sell rapidly, The produce market remains steady.We quote values as follows : Grain.Oats,per bag 8085 to $0905 Peas, per bushel.080% 00 Buckwheat, per .190 to 110 Beans, per bushel.140t0 165 Vegetables, Potatoes, new, perbag.090 to 125 Cucumbers, perdoz.008 to 010 Turnips, per dozen .004 to 003 Carrots, per dozen.,.010to 012 Parsnips, per bushel.«050 to 060 Beets, per dozen.010to 012 Cabbagcs, new,cach.60 to 006 Onions, new, por dozen .003 ww 006 Radishes, per dozen.005to 010 Lettuce, per dozen.013to 020 Rhubarb, per dozen.L012t0 015 Tomatoes, perbask.060 to 080 Green Peas, per bushel.,.040to 069 Cauliflowers, each.003 to 006 Beans, per bush.050to 060 Celery.per head.0 01ito 003 Corn, green, perdoz.eran 00to 009 : Fruit.Grapes, per basket.veiers 08010090 Lemons, perdoz.coevvevenennnns 0 25 to 0 30 Oranges, per doz.,.0 35 to 0 40 Applos, now per peck.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026\u2026.015 to 0 20 Bananas, perdoz.02M0to 030 Pincapples,each.60 to025 Peaches, per doz.020 to 0 40 Apricots.per doz.0 20 to 0 30 Gooseberries, per quart.0 08 to 0 09 Blueberries, per quart.007 to 008 Pears.per dozen.02010030 Cherries, per quart.009 to 0 10 Currants, perquart.000 to002 Raspberries, per box.010 to 0 15 Watermelons, each .\u2026 020t0025 Plums, California, per doz .015t002 Crab apples, perbush.050 to 060 Peaches, Canada, per doz.000to010 Blackberries per bucket.\u2026 085t0090 Pears, Bartlett, per doz.0 15 to 0 20 Poultry and Game.Turkers, cocks, cach.2 00 to 2 50 Turkeys, hens, each.12560150 Chickens, per pair.06 to080 Fowls, per pair.\u2026.\u2026\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.0M to 110 Ducks, per pair.085to100 Pigeons, per palr.035to 045 Quail, per doz.2 50 to 275 Plover, per doz 28 to330 Snipe, per doz.000to20G0 Dairy butter, perlb.020to 022 Croamery, perlb.veer 0000025 Print, choice.000t0 030 Eggs, fresh, perdoz.01510020 Epes, packed, per doz.\u2026.011 to0114 Maple sugar, per lb.008 to010 Cheese, cream, per lb.013 to 014 Honoy.perlb .oeehe 0 124to 6 15 Hay and Straw.The market is well supplied with an excellent crop of hay.We quote values as follows : Hay (old), No.1 pressed, perton.$12 00 to $12 50 Hay (old), No.2 * pet, 10 00 to * 50 Hay, new pressed 8 10 00 to 11 00 Straw, por 100 bundles.04 00 to 06 00 Liverpool Markets.The following are to-day\u2019s quotations and comparisons: Aug.26.Aug.25., s.d s, dis d 8 dd.Spring wheat.| 6 2 @ 6 3! 6 % @ 6 3 Red Wheat.! 8 da 6 2H 6 ne 6 2 No.1Cala.| © @ 6 94 6 8} 6 9 No.2Cala.;

we do not believe that wheat will g> much, if any lower, and reiterate our advice given above to buy it when it shows weakness.Corn has been subjected to only moderate fluctuations; it acts to us as though it had been \u2018\u2018bulled to death.\u201d The last Government agricultural reports indicated a crop of 1725,000,000 bushels, last ycar 3 crop was 2060,000,000 bushels, so that it seems to us with too much crops, corn at 50 cents, with wheat at 75 cents, is too high.It has been in the hands of local receiving houses in Chicago for months and with the poor quality of the receipts they were able to manipulate and milk the country men without any trouble.We fear that they are now out of their holdings, and that the country traders have the corn.If this is true there is nothing but a very early frost that will save the country holders, as the local scalpers and manipulators would have an easy task to shake them ont under ordinary circumstances, We think corn might be sold moderately, | keeping in view always the possibility of frost, and if that should come at an unusually carly date we should cover short corn and let it alone until we could act in- teiligently in it._ The receipts are now grading about 50 per cent.fo.2 contract, against 10 per cent.60 days ago.The receipts are moderately large, and we think will be much increased as soon as the new crop is assurec.Prok and ribs are apparently in the hands of Mr.Armour or his lieutenants, and are a very radical quantity.We incline to the belief that they will sell some lower; if they should, we would prefer to buy rather than eell, after such a heavy decline, although we are not enthusiastic.\u201d The stocks are light, comparatively speaking.Should it be true that Mr.Armour owns them all, then there might be a fancy deal in the October options if sufficient short interest prevailed to make it pay him for a squeeze.THE TREND OF TRADE.Bradstreet\u2019s Weekly Report of the General Commercial Outlook.New York, Aug.26.\u2014Special telegrams to Bradstreet\u2019s include accounts of increases in the volume of general trade worthy of special notice at Boston, Chicago, Minneapolis, St.Paul, Omaha, St.Louis and ansas City.Cotton goods and boot and shoe manufacturers and jobbers at the East, wholesale dealers, in the same, as well as in light hardware, clothing and hats at theWest and Northwest, report the greatest activity.Leather is moving more freely and the demand for lumber hag improved.Request for staple groceries has been irregular.Chicago and St.Louis report an exceptional influx of country buyers.Prices for live cattle are firm at western centres, while those for hogs are active, but lower.New cotton is very backward.Rice and sugar crops will be heavy.Trade is reviving rapidly on the Pacific coast.Noticeably exports of flour to Central America.ixports of wheat from United States seaports, both coasts, as reported to Bradstreet's (counting flour as wheat) equal 4,606,000 bushels this week, the heaviest week\u2019s total of any week in the current cereal year.New York, Newport, News, Baltimore, New Orleans and San Francisco are responsible for the gain.In the previous week the total was 3,750,000 bushels.In the corresponding week of 1891 the like total was 6,348,000 bushels.Several influences have interfered with the bullish manipulation of professional operators, notably the increasing strength of the money market, the export of &l,- 500,000 gold, despite easier exchange rates, and the appearance of cholera in Europe.Exchange is $c lower on a slightly better supply of bills.Telegraphic despatches from many cities indicate that funds are in better demand and money market consequently a little stronger.Bessemer pig has sold at $13.73, the lowest price at Pittsburgh.Provisions\u2019 trades have suffered from the likelthood of cholera, interrupting shipments to and from North European ports, and prices have declined.Now that \u201c\u2018wools from the cholera districts are to be excluded\u201d there is a better demand for Scotch, China and Mediterranean wools.Telegraphic advices from Montreal to Bradstreet's are more favorable, general trade in Quebec being fairly active and the outlook good.Naval stores, flour and grain are the only staples classed as dull.Toronto dispatches respecting trade in Ontario are quite as encouraging.Wholesale trade is in good shape, with demand for staples fairly active.The estimate is made that Canada will have from 25,000,000 to 30,000,.000 bushels of wheat for export this year, an unusually large quantity.Canadian leather manufacturers, like their Américan cousins, are about to curtail Bank clearings at Halifax, Montreal, Toronto and Hamilton aggregate $17,910,000 this week, a trifle less than last week, but a ain of 6.7 per cent.over the total in the ike week last year.Omitting Hamilton, which does not furnish comparative totals for 1891, three cities show a gain of 4.4 per cent.over the like week last year.There are 18 failures reported in Canada this week ; last week the total was 26, and in the like week of 1891 it was 21.Continued on Page Five.Pipe Smokers.You may be satisfied with the brands of tobaccos you have been using for years.Grant it ; that you are satistied.As there is always room for improvement, we ask you to try our Op Cnom Prue, or Cur smoking tobacco, we believe you will be BETTER satisfied.In any case a trial wont hurt you.\u2014 THR \u2014 RECOCNISED STANDARD BRANDS \u201cMUNGO,\u201d \u201cKICKER,\u201d \u201cCABLE\u201d Universally acknowledged to be superior in every respect to any other brands in the market.Always reliable, as has been fully demonstrated by the millions thataresold annually and the increasing demand for them, notwithstanding an increased competition of over One Hundred and Twenty-five Factories.This fact We are not cheap Cigar manufacturers.5 Davis & Sons, Montreal, Largest and Highest Grade Cigar Manufacturers in speaks volumes.Canada.À B.W.Baldwin, Carnesville,Tenn., writes : I have used your German Syrup in my family, and find it the best medicine I ever tried for coughs and colds.I recommeud it to everyone for these troubles.R.Schmalhausen, Druggist, of Charleston, Ill.,writes: After trying scores of prescriptions and preparations I had on my files and shelves, without relief for a very severe cold, which had settled on my lungs, I tried your German Syrup.It gave me immediate relief and a perma- pent cure.G.G.GREEN, Sole Manufacturer, Woodbury, New Jersey, U.S.A x MEETINGS AND DIVIDENDS.LA BANQUE DU PEUPLE, DIVIDEND NOTICE NO.112, TheStockholders of La Banque du Pouple a hereby notified that a semi-annual dividend three (3) per cent.for the last six months h been declared on the (\u2018apital Stock, and will ayablo at the office of the Bank on and afte Monday, the 5th of September next.The transfer book will be closed from the 15th to the 31st, August, both days inclusive.(By order of tho Board of Dircctors.)

the City\u2014How the Clvie Finances are Affected by Legislation\u2014 The City Hall Committee Ncets for a While.Great things were expected from the Finance committee yesterday afternoon when they met, but little was the result of their deliberations.That is, as far as purely civic business was concerned.The present critical financial position of the city calls for close attention on the part of the Finance committee, and recently they have been devoting a good deal of their time to the subject.Yesierday\u2019s mecting was, however, devoid of all civic financial business, and, after a few routine matters had been disposed of, the meeting was devoted to discussing the details of the civic receptions to the officers of the British and French warships no visiting the port of Montreal.It was unanimously agreed that a civic reception should be tendered worthy of the city.But when the question of cost came to be discussed it was proposed to limit it to $100.This was tacitly agreed to, but it was observable, to at least one of the press representatives, that \u201c#inks and nods\u201d were exchanged across the table between the members present, and whatever the cost, a fitting entertainment must be provided.This was settled and then the committee proceeded to detail, WHO SUPPLIES THE REFRESHMENTS ?The Mayor wasin favor of dividing it between English and French caterers, according to the nationality of the flag.This all-things-to-all-men idea of the Mayor did not meet with much favor from the eldermen present.They wanted the catering placed in the hands of some one who would deal with all nationalities alike, and Ald.Prefontaine stoutly malntained that no one could do this better than Mr.Joyce, who had so often \u201c\u201cfilled the bill\u201d on similar occasions.The Mayor strongly advocated the idea of dividing the business between the English and French caterers, but this did not meet with any support and Mr.Joyce, on the strength of Ald.Prefontaine\u2019s recommendation, backed by Ald.McBride\u2019s support, was selected to provide the absolutely needful, with concomitant delicacies in order to sustain the natural wants of the visitors during the ordeal of a civic reception.NO CHAMPAGNE, NO STRONG LIQUOR.The chairman here interposed with the remark that civic receptions sometimes turned out very costly and he proposed that there should be no champagne or strong liquor.Claret cup, lemonade, ices, etc., would be all right and quite sufficient, along with other light refreshments.Besides, said the chairman, at previous receptions there have never been more than twelve out of the thirty-six aldermen prescat.\u201cBah!\u201d said Ald.Cresse, \u2018\u2018 what the scallawags did in the past does mot affect us.If we are going to give a civic entertainment let us do it properly.It isnot a question of finance.If we were not able to meet the French warships when they arrived in port, owing to the stormy weather, it is no reason why we should not meet the British ships when they arrive.Let us do the thing in a manner worthy of the city.\u201d The Mayor interposed by saying that all the aldermen had been notified to go down to the French ships yesterday morning and pay their devoirs, etc, This statement was met by cries of \u2018\u201cI never heard a word about it ;\u201d \u201c\u2018 This is the first I have heard,\u201d etc.Finally, a Reccption Committee was ap- ___Pointed, ognajating of the Finance Commit- ho us teed lus bolus,\u201d with the Mayor and Ald.Farrell, Cresse, Stevenson, and Cnn.ningham to assist.This settled the civie reception business, and the committee proceeded to discuss ordinary business.An application from Mr.Bickerdike was read asking to be allowed intereat on his deposit in connection with his electric street railway tender, the same as had been granted to Mr.Williams.Ald.Farrell: \u2018Pay one, pay all.\u201d Agreed to.THR CITY'S FINANCES.Mr.Robb, city treasurer, presented a letter addressed to The Herald, accompanied with a statement of the city\u2019s finances as they stand at present, and which read as follows: To the Editor of The Herald : Sir, \u2014Permit me to call your atfon'ion to the enclosed statement, uel simply as a compro- hensive exhibit of our prasent position rcla- tive to loan or permanant work, but more espa- cially as to ths financisl complications which are caloulatod to arise out of such legislation as is there alluded ro.If, trrespective of the sums at the disposal of the city, or any information as to the extent to which these may bo pledged, the legisiature shall undertake to sey just how much shall be exponded on this, that, or tho other project, then financing on the part of the city, itself, wero useless, Yours truly, Vv.ROBB, City Treasurer.To Alderman Rolland, Chairman Financo Committee, Sir,\u2014On February last I submitted à statement showing the position of our loan fund, which was as follows: Stock.iii areas $8,000,000 Total appropriations of Council to that ate V®O.ccnusovanci seen sranrenn encens 7,025,100 Balance then available for the operations of 1892.0.\u20260aroucuccens $974,900 The appropriations of Council since then have been as follows: To Road department for permanent work.437,900 To Water department for permanent work.300,000 To which is to be added the following:

Should the unissued £60,000 sterling 3 per cent.stock be converted into four per cents it would yield an additional capital of, say,.600,000 Making a total possible yield of, say,.$760,000 Included in the \u201cappropriations of council\u201d ebove mentioned were the following sums: City's contribution towards widening St.Jamesstreet.iii ieee.25,000 City\u2019s contribution towards widening St.Antoine.\u2026.\u2026\u2026.\u20260ssscrcsumec sea nanas $45,000 The Legislature at its last session, however, at the instigation of the interested parties, patsed an act requiring the city to pay one- alf the costs instcad of these amounts.It also declared that the opening of St.Catherine street from Harbor to Desory streets, which was undertaken on the principle of payment by tho proprietors, should be pal by the city to the extent of one-half; and it further ordered proceedings in the expropriation of Notre Dame street (from Chaboillez square to tho city limits) which were set down for 1883, aud for which no provision had been made in above apyropriations, to commence at once.I: is true that the date for carrying out the improvement of St.Antoine street was, by the game act, postponed till 1843 and 6, but one-half the cost of Notre Dame, St.James and St.Catherine streeis, along, will call for more than the total possible available balance as shewn above, and leaves nothing for any other work.Respectfully submitted, W.ROBB, City Treasurer, City Hall, 12th Aug., 1892.At the same time Mr.Robb asked if he should accept U.8.Silver bills at full face value.Ald.MeBride\u2014\u201c*ake allthab that the banks will take.We will call a meeting some evening to /§'elnss the matter and will then advise you iurther.\u201d THE ELECTRIC SYSTEM.The meeting then resolyed itself into a family compact to disçu the merits and demerits of the trolley \u2018storage battery systems.Several ideas weri pro gated accord- the result of which was that Ald.Prefontaine proposed to send Mr.Badger, city electrician; Mr.St, George, city surveyor, and two aldermen, to visit places in the States where electric lines are run and make a comprehensive report for the guidance of the coun- cii.This concluded the business of the day.The City Hall Committee.The City Hall Committee met yesterday afternoon at 2.30.Ald.Thompson presided and there were present to assist him, Ald.Rainville and Lamarche.The usual cry of \u201cno quorum\u2019 went round for a while, but after putting the telephone into request Ald.Germain was produced to fill the bill.It turned out, after all, that there was not much business to be transacted and this was got through in short order.The chairman said he had an application from Mr.Coyle, solicitor for the expropriation commissioners, for a carpet in his room.\u201c\u2018No funds\u201d said Ald.Thompson; so the application could not be entertained.A petition from Mrs.D'Arcy, widow of the late City Hall chief me-senger and care- taken, was read asking for financial assistance.This met with the same fate as Mr.Coyle\u2019s application.The chairman said they had no availible funds, and it would be better to refer the matter to the Finance Committee and place the responsibility of a grant or refusal with that body.The secretary made the announcement that the appropriation fund for printing and advertising was exhausted and he wanted to know what ho was to do.The Chairman : \u2018* No funds, no printing; refer the question to the Finance Committee to settle.\u201d The secretary was instructed to prouide a list of applicants for increase of salary in the department to be ready for the next Salaries Committee mceting.The chairman then said that all the business of the meeting was over.\u2018\u201cI thank you, gentlemen, for your attendance and we will now adjourn.\u201d HONORABLY ACQUITTED.Advocate Feron's Character Completely Cleared by Magistrate Sicotte, Mr.M.J.Feron, of the firm of Guerin & Feron, was honorably acquitted by Mr.Sicotte, J.P., yesterday afternoon of the charge lodged against him by Constable Gaudry of No.4 police station, of obstructing the police in the performance of their duty.As the consequence of this thorough vindication before the court of his action on the occasion in question, Mr.Feron was, during the afternoon, heartily congratulated by fosts of friends who had watched the outcome of the case with interest.It will be remembered that the charge wag first made against Mr.Feron in the Recorder\u2019s court, but he selected trial by jury, so the case was subsequently transferred to the Police court for preliminary investigation to see if evidence would warrant the case being sent for trial to the Court of Queen's Bench.This preliminary enquiry was conducted before Mr.Sicotte, who, however, reserved his judgment until after the holidays he was then about to take.In rendering his decision yesterday, Mr.Sicotte said, Mr.Feron was charged by Constable Gaudry with obstructing the police.In support of this four depositions were made during the preliminary inquiry.In the first; made by the complainant, Gaudry ne testified that Mr.Fe.ron had been greatly excited, spoke in a loud voice and pushed the officer.This was only partially corroborated by one other witness, while the other two held different stories, This was particularly so in the evidence of Private Constable Longetin, who swore he heard the accused say, * You have no right to arrest the man ; let him ges The two other witnesses did not hear Ar.Foron use these words.They had only heard him tell Gaudry not to ill-use tha man.Continuing, the magistrate said, while he regretted that Mr.Feron had ever been brought before the court, he must he guided by the testimony, and as that produced by the prosecution was of such a contradictory natures, he could find no grounds for Mr.Feron\u2019s committal for veial and he would, therefore, dismiss the case, and he hoped that this would be a final settlement of the whole trouble.In an interview with Mr.Feron after his honorable acquittal, he inforned The Herald that he was thoroughly satisfied with the outcome of the case.He only wont into the case as a citizen in the interests of justice, and now that his honor and the action he had taken had both been thoroughly vindicated, he intended to take no further action in the matter.\u201cThen you will not press your suit against the city for false arrest?\u201d \u2018asked the reporter, \u201cNo; under the circumstara=s, no.Iin- tend to give immediate instructions thst ali proceedings towards that end shall now be withdrawn,\u201d < Good Busizess.The proprietors of the St.Lawrence Main and Et.Charles Borromce street extensions are now laying out a beautiful park property at the Back River, which will shortly be put on the market.Up to date they have sold 1200 lots since January 1, and yesterday alone no less than 72 lots were disposed Ol.This Fireman Is Better.Fireman Blanchette, of No.2 station, who was severely hurt some few nights since by being thrown from the apparatus while responding to an alarm, is rapidly recovering at the Notre Dame hospital.Today he will be able to return to his home, and by Monday ho will probably be able to report for duty.Money, But Not Children.The Semaine Religieuse of this week re-pro- duces Archbisho Fache's pastoral letter upon the Manitoba school question.That journal, in commenting upon the letter of the Archbishop of St.Boniface, recalls the decision ef the Privy Council, and says that as a result the persecutors of the Catholics of Manitoba may obtain their money, but will never secure control of their children.Clerical Nominations.His Grace Archbishop Fabre has made the following nominations : Rev.Laurent Cousineau to be vice-chancellor of the archdiocese ; Rev.J.Aubin to be cure of Ste.Rose; Rev.A.Belanger to be vicar of Ste.Cunegonde ; Rev.A.Quesnel to be vicar of Point aux

a view of ascertaining if such was correct, and how it would affect the Montreal market, called upon several of the chief coal merchants in this city yesterday afternoon, and although they one and all stated that they had not received any notification of the rise yet, they felt assured that a rise of fifty cents would take place on the first of next month, New Yorkers Coming to Town.A big excursion party will arrive at the Bonaventure depot at half past ten this morning.The excursion comes over the St.L.& A.R.R.division of the Central Vermont, and is got up by the W.D, Brennan post G.À.R., and the LO.O.F., No.39, of Malone, N.Y.The party is not only comprised of Malone citizens, but embraces excursionists from Chateaugauy, N.Y.and intermediate stations along the line.The day will be spent in sight-seeing in town.The train will return at 6 p.m, but many of the party intend remaining over until Monday.NO MORE LAGER To be Allowed at Sohmer Park on Sundays.That Was the Decision at Yesterday's Meeting of the Provinclal Cabinet\u2014The Sorel Railway Embargo to be Lifted\u2014 The Lottery Question to be Discussed To-day.The members of the Provincial Cabinet, with the exception of the Hon.Messrs.Casgrain and Beaubien, put in a hard day\u2019s work at the Government offices on St.Gabriel street yesterday.They commenced sitting at 10 o'clock in the morning and, with the exception of one hour for lunch, sat continuously until six o\u2019clock.SOHMER PARK MUST ODEY THE LAW.The meeting opened with the reading of a petition from the proprietors of Sohmer Park, in which they begged of the Government to be allowed to sell lager on Sundays.A discussion ensued in which it was pointed out that Mr.Treasurer Hall had decided against the selling of lager at any of the parks, as it was a contravention of the license laws.The Council held that in view of the opposition raised by the licensed victuallers of the city, and taking into account that lager was an intoxicating liquor, their only course was to sustain the Treasurer in his action and allow the law to take its course.THE SOREL RAILWAY.The next subject taken up was that of a petition from the residents of the South Shore complaining of the bad state of the Montreal and Sorel railway and asking the Government to take immediate steps to have it put into working order.The Council with a unanimous voice at once sent a telegram to Mr.A.A.Taillon, the curator, requesting his immediate presence at the council meeting.The council then adjourned for lunch, and at its afternoon's sitting Mr.Taillon appeared, and informed the council that he had made arrangements for a large number of ties and other appliances with the Grand Trunk railway authorities, and that the line from the city to Longueuil would be in working order in a very short time.The council expressed their approbation of the efforts made by the curator, and ordered him to continue the work, so as to afford easy facilities to the travelling public from Borel to the city at the shortest possible moment.} THE LOTTERY QUESTION.By the time this important matter had been dealt with it was past four o'clock, and when Messrs.L.O.David and Beauchamp, representing the St.Jean Baptiste Society, appeared before the council to discuss the Province of Quebec Lottery question, and considering the numerous papers to be gone through, and taking into consideration the fact that Premier De Boucherville had to leave by the five o\u2019clock train, it was decided to leave this important question over until this morning at ten o'clock, when the Cabinet will go fully into the various aspects of the case.In consequence of this, the remaining members of the Cabinet formally discussed routine business until six six o'clock, when an adjournment took place.OUR AMUSEMENTS.Two Performances at Each Theatre To-day \u2014Next Week's Attractions.Both the Queen\u2019s and the Royal had big audiences yesterday.Each will have a matinee this afternoon

EXHIBITION.Two of the Fair's Committees Meet and Discuss Detalls.There was the usual busy scene at the office of the Exhibition company yesterday afternoon.Applicants for space were numerous, and what with two committees sitting the lower portion of the Government buildings presided a very lively scene, indeed.The Agricultural or Roots committee held a long session, during which they went through their program of exhibita and made many changes as well as appointed judges in the various section.The chairman informed The Herald representative that the entries were more numerous than those of last yesr.The other committee which sat was that for the refreshments, and, as expected, it was a lively ore: and although over two hours\u2019 deliberation took place on the various tenders, nothing definite was arrived at, much to the discomfiture of the numerous applicants for stalls, who had waited patiently for so long a time.On what grounds the committee did not agree could not be ascertained.What the hone of contention was could not be ascertained, as although several of the committee were spoken to, they preserved a studied re.tice.$6.00 to Portland, Me., and return; $10.00

schism which broke out in the parish church at Maskinonge, some months ago, owing to the building of a new parish church, and the subsequent cursing of the chapel, all of which will be remembered by Herald readers, culminated on Thursday in the embracing of Protestantism by ten men and one women formerly adherents of the Catholic faith.The cursing of the chapel did not prevent many from attending and worshipping according to their faith in the edifice.The priestly threat of their not being raco1.iz « by the Roman Church, had no ettect on them and time and again they asked that a cure be sent to them to attend to their spiritual wants.None was sent, and they continued to worship as Catholics until the Rev.Adam Burwash, a Baptist minister, visited them and read the Scrip- tnres to them.The Protestant form of worship seems to have impressed many of the worshippers, and they asked that a minister be given them.Rev.W.8.Bullock was sent, and has labored amongst them since last November.As a result of his labors, eleven Roman Catholics renounced their religion, and were accepted in the Protestant faith.The Protestant services all along have been attended by over thirty, and on some Sundays the number has been nearer a hundred.On Thursday all the emblems which denote a Catholic church were removed, and all preparations made to receive the new converts into the church.At 2 o\u2019clock all wag ready, the chapel being filled by over two hundred, many of whom had been attracted through curiosity, but nevertheless the utmost quietness and order prevailed.The usual services were gone through, followed by the baptismal ceremony and the renunciation of their former faith.The names of the converts are as follows : Hil- arion Martin, Hormidas Desserro, Pierre Desserre, Ovide Vertefeuille, \u2014 Beaulieu, son of Abraham, lsaie Marchand, Edmund Marchand, Gosford Marchand, Cyrille Clouthier, Madame Joseph Lefebvre.SHOT IN THE HEART.Terribly Sad Sulelde of Alphonse Larocque While Temporarily Insane.* Suicide while laboring under a fit of temporary aberration.\u201d That was the verdict of the coroner\u2019s jury at the Notre Dame Hospital last evening, called by Deputy-Coroner Loranger for the inquest on the remains of Alphonse L.La- rocque, who died in the institution at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, from the effects of a pistol shot wound inflicted by his own hand.The news of the tragedy, which occurred in the boarding-house of Mrs.Joseph Tail- lon, 1493 Notre Dame street, a few minutes before 3 o\u2019clock, caused a painful sensation in the city, as the unfortunate deceased was connected with some of the best families of Montreal.He was a son of Dr.Larocque, for many years medical health officer of this city, was a brother-in-law of Alderman Hur- tean, and was connected by marriage with several other city officials.Alphonse Larocque was formerly a member of the Papal Zouaves.He was forty years of age, but since the death of his wife, some few years ago, he has never been considered altogether right in his head.Some few years ago, with his Zouave training, having a strong taste for a military life, he joint the St.John\u2019s Military School, whe being a fine amateur musician he soon became director of the band attached to the school.After putting in his three years\u2019 service, in April a year ago, he accepted a clerkship in the water department in the Long room, ander the immediate supervision of Mr.Arnoldi.Owing te -his-strange and offtime flighty manners he was not a favorite with his fellow clerks and on several occasions he made complaints against some of his companions without apparent reasons.But when asked the cause for these; strange actions by his superior, he would always say that he must be crazy.- Two months ago, his actions continuing to grow more strange, he was medically examined by Dr.Laberge, city medical health officer, and by him was given a certificate that he was suffetfing irom neurasthenia, which is but a degree removed from absolute insanity.In conversation with Dr.Laberge yesterday afternoon he said Larocque was & man whose condition for months past was such that le sould never have been left alone.On the strength of Dr.Laberge\u2019s certificate Larocque was given a month's holiday, which he spent with a friend at Chambly, and he returned to his duties apparently completely recovered in health.Fe seems that since the death of his wife the unfortunate man has been a heavy drinker aid when he went to the office yesterday morning it was noticed that he was under the influence of liquor.He worked until noon and then went out.At one o'clock he visited the Health office and Secretary Flynn, seeing his condition, accompanied him to his bearding house an hour later.There Mrs.Taillon advised him to lie down and he went to his room.The lady, knowing that he was addicted to the use of morphine, followed him and found him in the act of taking a deze of the fatal drug.She begged him not to take it, but he answered he must, as he wanted to sleep.Bhe succeeded, however, in taking the drug from him and left him lying on his bed, A few minutes later she was startled by the report of a pistol and then a ery for help.Rushing up-stairs she found him gasping in the death agony with a bullet hole in his breast, directly under the heart.On the little table near his bed was a small, cheap revolver ; the weapon with which he accomplished the rash act.Mrs.Taillon immediately summoned help and the unfortunate suicide was remcved to the Notre Dame hospital.There it was found he was beyond all human skill and he died twenty minutes later without ever recovering consciousness.Dr.Larocque, the father of the deceased, was notified, and the scene, when: he saw the body of his son cold in death, was terribly painful.Many fear that it is not impossible that the awful shock may result in the death of the aged gentleman, As proof of the insanity of the unfortunate man, it may be said that only a short time ago he evolved a scheme to make money out of the city by spreading the rumor that the flooring in the city hall was infected with microbes.He approached a high, civic sanitary official and asked him to officially confirm this microbe theory, telling him that he was about to accept an agency for floor tiles, and if they could have these introduced into the City Hall and public buildings his fortune would be made.He offered half of this to the official if he would go into the scheme with him.The deceased leaves a daughter, a young lady of sixteen years.FALL FAIRS.Following is a list of the fall fairs, in this neighborhood, which have been announced up to the present : Fair, Places.Dates.Montreal Provincial.Montreal.Sept 15 to

Talks Abont International and Other Matters of Interests.Economy the Watchword\u2014The C.P.R.Must Not Have Control of the Intercolonial\u2014 No Annexation for the G.T.R.\u2014No Fear of Interference with Bonding Privileges \u2014Mr.Blake in Britain, Sir Henry Tyler, president of the Grand Trunk Railway, arrived at the Windsor yesterday afternoon, on his annual tour of inspection.He was accompanied by Mr.Hubbard, one of the directors, who is visiting this country for the first time.After inspecting the Portland end of the road, they proceeded to Levis and Quebec, and reached Montreal yesterdayafternoon.They walked through the Victoria bridge, and made a thorough inspection of the Point St.Charles workshops.Sir Henry stated last night that they had found the road in capital condition as far as they had gone.ECONOMY THE WATCHWORD.\u201cIt is rumored that you contemplate a general reduction in salaries,\u201d said the reporter.; \u201cWell,\u201d said Sir Henry, \u2018\u2018we are trying to run the road in the interests of the shareholders.In these days of low rates and keen competition it is dificult to give them a return for their investment.lt is natural, therefore, that we should see where we can econoinise.At the same time we will not interfere with the efficiency of the road.But we have no general scheme in view.\u201d THE INTERCOLONIAL.\u201cHave you any intention of taking over the Intercolonial?\u201d \u201cI have seen reports about the Canadian Pacific.Railway and the Intercolonial, but I do not think the Government should give exclusive control of it to any company.If the Government does not want the road any longer, it should dispose of it to both companies jointly, or at least give them equal powers over it.\u201d NO AMALGAMATION.\u201cIs there anything in the rumored amal- amation of the Grand Trunk and the )'P.R.?\" \u201cOh, no! Why the law prohibits it.Of course we are anxious to be on good terms with them, but that is all.We have not thought of anything like consolidation, nor have we in view any more extensions or absorptions.We have had enough of that for a while.\u201d THE POWER OF A SOREHEAD.\u201cI suppose you have seen the resolution adopted by the United Btates Senate stating that American citizens had large mining and other interests in Canada against which it was reported that the Grand Trunk railroad was discriminating, and requesting the Interstate Commerce Committee to investigate and report whether any legislation was necessary to protect their own commerce at home or the interests of Americans in Canada against the said Grand Trunk company.\u201d \u201cOh ! There is nothing in that,\u201d said Sir Henry.\u201cI know exactly where that resolution originated.It was prompted by a man who had large interests at Sudbury and who wanted us to go into a scheme with him.We refused and now he is taking this means of attacking us We don\u2019t discriminate against Americans.We want all the traffic from them that we can get.\u201d THE BONDING PRIVILEGES.\u201cHave you any fear that the Americans may curtail your bonding privileges?\u201d *\u2018 None whatever.I know how strongly the Western States at one end and the New England States at the other end would object to any interference with our bonding privileges.They know what advantages they derive in this way and it would take a very strong government indeed to overcome their opposition.The elections are coming on over there and anything does for an election cry.\u201d \u2018You have had some experience of election cries here ?\u201d \u201cYes,\u201d laughed Sir Henry.*\u2018Sir Charles Tupper makes plenty of promises before elections, but he does not keep them.You know the value of Sir Charles\u2019 promises here.\u201d \u2018WE ARE ENGLISHMEN.\u201d \u201cWhat do you think of annexation as a solution for tariff and other difficulties with the United States ?\u201d \u201cNever,\u201d said Sir Henry emphatically, Mr.Hubbard agreein7,\u2018\u2018We are Englishmen.Of course, I know there are a few cranks here who talk about annexation, but the Oanadians are too loyal for anything of that kind.\u201d \u201cWhat about the interest of your shareholders 7\u201d \u201cWell, they are Englishmen too.\u201d AN OPINION OF MR.BLAKE, The conversation turned to the recept British elections in which Sir Henry was defeated as the Conservative candidate for Great Yarmouth, for which constituency he had been member for some time.\u201cWhat impression has Mr.Blake made in English politics » \u201cOh, none at all,\u201d said Sir Henry.\u201cWhy, be is not known over there.He made a big mistake.He ought to have remained at home where he is known and respected.\u201d \u201cYes,\u201d said Mr.Hubbard, \u201cHe ought to have remained at home.\u201d THE ST.LAWRENCE AND OTTAWA.\u201cIt has been stated that Mr.Duncan Me- Intyre holds a controlling interest in the St.Lawrence and Ottawa railway.and that since he has become a Grand Trunk director there is probability of your company taking over that road.\u201d \u2018You will have to ask Mr.McIntyre whether he owns the controlling interest.As far as taking over the road is concerned, it has been considered, but nothing definite has been done.\u201d Sir Henry and Mr, Hubbard will remain here for four or five days, and then go west.They expect to be in Toronto during the fair time, and will sail for England on October 8th.Got Their Deserts.Deputy-Recorder Bourgoin presided in the Recorder\u2019s Court yesterday afternoon and those present witnessed a really lively session.The case up for hearing wae that of Mr.and Mrs.Thorne, the proprietors of the Albert street disorderly house recently raided by Sergeants Charbonneau and Sullivan and the police of No.6 Station.Both the old man and woman have been for years well known to the police and neither bore a savory reputation.Last year the couple spent six months in jail for keeping a disorderly house.The year before last and the year before that again each put in similar terms of imprisonment for similar offences.Under these circumstances, although they made a big and noisy fight, conviction was certain, and each received the same old sentence of six months\u2019 imprisonment at hard labor in jail.After this case had been disposed of, à young, festive, colored lady was placed on trial, charged with being an habitual frequenter of the Thorne domicile.\u2018I's here all alone by myself to appear for the defence,\u201d she gaily informed the court.And then she offered to call half the respectable furniture dealers of the city to testify that she was a highly respectable lady, and \u201cMassa this\u201d and \u2018\u2018 Massa that,\u201d would only be delighted to give high testimony as to her character.\u2018Have you any witnesses?\u201d asked the Court.\u201cNo, sar.I's here for the defence all alone by myself.I's told you,\u201d replied Miss Minor.\u201cYou will pay $50 or go to jail tor six months,\u201d mildly remarked His Honor ; and as the damsel was led awav to begin her enforced retirement, the highly respectable colored lady gave vent Lo a most emphatic \u201ccuss word,\u201d regarding His Honor, that commenced with a great big D.THE LACROSSE COMPETITION.SHAMROCKS AND PATTERSON ARE THE LEADERS.A Big Vote Pilinæ up, But not Much Change \u2014Capitals in Third Place.The Capitals are now in third place in The Herald's Lacrosse Club competition.They have still a long way to climb to overtake the two clubs, but they have about a month todo it in.During the past week the bulk of the ballots have been for Montreal and Patterson.The latter leads W.J.McKenna by over 500 votes.The Shamrock club is still, however, far in advance.The competition will run just five weeks more.The poll up to 6 o'clock last night stood : CLUBS, Shamrock Montreal Cornwall 29 apitals.Crescents 162 New Westn: 148 Torontos.83 Violets 29 PLAYERS, J.Patterson (Montreal).W.J.McKenna (Shamrock) 3 C.Neville (Shamrock).eeee .1115 J.McVey (Shamrock).\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.479 J.O'Meara (Shamrock).e.evvee ne 460 T, Brophy (Crescents).\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.263 H.Adams (Corawall).226 R.Kelly (Shamrocks).118 H.Carson (Capital).110 JM.J.Tansey (Shamrocks 53 H.Ketchum (Capitals) 42 T.Carlind (Montreal).41 Carpenter (Cornwall).3 W.Hodgson (Montreal).28 J.McConaghy (Toronto) 21 Kent (Capitals).ee 28 Geo.Baird (Montreal).secoue 28 T.Moore (Bhamrocks).Vansassson00 .\u2026\u2026 17 THE BALLOT.l vote fOK.\u2026.\u2026ouveressnessss as the most popular lacrosse club, and for.erornesonoc ont ud0 ace 01100000 Emes te as the most popular player.The Montreal Roofing Co.have been awarded the contract for roofing and etc, of store and dwelling on Notre Dame street, for Dr.L.O.Thayer.Will Close for Repairs.The bathing department of the Turkish Bath, with exception of the new swimming | \\ ell establishe bath, will close forthe annual repairs, painting, and etc., on Monday morning Sept.5, and reopen for business on Saturday afternoon, Sept.10.$6.00 to Portland, Me., and return;
