days when Abbott, Beaudry, Grenier, Beaugrand, Hingston, Coursol and McCord sought the great honor.Yesterday was a reminder of these battles, and the vote of 17,000 people followed by a majority of about 150, tells of weeks of hard work, during which carefully organized committees sought to place their respective candidates at the head of the poll.A mayoralty majority of considerably over 5000 was turned to a minority of 150.Five aldermen were defeated, and are replaced by men who are avowedly the opponents of boodling and \u2018\u201c municipal rings.\u201d It was on this ticket that they sought to replace those who formed part of the council which spent millions of dollars against the wishes of the people.This was evidenced by the vote of yesterday.t was a strange election day in many ways.A visitor would never have supposed that an event wus taking place which was of the gravest importance to the metropolis of Canada.If you looked for signs of an election you could find them, but not any too easily.Sleighs were out in great numbers, but Montreal seldoin knows a finer day for a drive, so that this was not wondered at.On every hand there were the ordinary scenes witnessed on a busy day in this city, but nothing more.7 TOWARDS EVENING, When, however, darkness began to fall, and the returning officers closed the olling booths, there were signs of interest.\u2018he interest grew as the hour of ballot- counting went by.This poll and that poll were heard from and gradually the congre- Le 0.DAVID, CITY CLERK.gations of people in many parts of the city were awakened to the fact that the principles laid down by Mayor McShane two years ago had been paid the greatest homage, and that the co Jardins.(haben the cheers came, It was known that © civic notables would make their wav t5 ming man was Senator Des- the City Hall and thither the people went.Some one made his way to a window in the big building and there screamed: \u201cThree cheers for the new mayor,\u201d and the cheers were nearer thirty than three.The official count took place in the Board of Assessors\u2019 room.The reports from every subdivision were carefully totalled up, and Mayor McShane watched the work with the greatest possible eagerness.When Mr.Beauset announced the result there was a wild shout for Desjardins, and Mr.McShane quietly left the room.Before leaving, however, he asked for a recount, which was at once granted, and will take place this morning.The defeated aldermen were not seen by others than close friends.cuse.Ald.Gauthier says that the street railway company knifed him; Ald.Grenier says it is a case of general change in public opinion, and that settles it.Each is satisfied, yet more than one will come forward if there be a chance on March Ist.The total vote for mayor and aldermen as announced by the returning officers is as follows.THE MAYORALTY.The Total Vote By Polling Sub-divisions, EAST WARD, Pol Ae Desjar- Maj.Maj.No.Shane.dins.McShane Desjard\u2019s 1 33 109

Roast.[Special to The Herald.] Ottawa, Feb.1.\u2014To-day was the first opportunity that private members have had to press their business before Parliament and as a consequence a variety of questions were brought up.After routine the following bills were in\u201d troduced and read a first time: To secure the better observance of the Lord\u2019s day,\u2014Mr.Charlton.To further amend the Steamboat Inspection act.\u2014Hon.Mr.Costigan.Mr.Charlton\u2019s bill is the same as was defeated last year, while Mr.Costigan\u2019s is to merely correct a clerical error.Mr.Edgar asked whether the Governor.General has issued his proclamation to bring into force the provisions of the \u201c\u201cCopyright Amendment act,\u201d of 1889; whether the British Government has given notice of the withdrawal of Canada from the Berne convention as requested in the address passed by the Parliament of Canada in 1891,if snch proclamnationhas not been issued and if suchnotice of w _hdrawal has not been given; .uouweiament is prepared au once to lay before this House papers and correspondence to explain the delay or neglect that has taken place in these inatters, NO DECISION ARRIVED AT, Sir John Thompson replied that the proclamation had not been issued, and the notice spoken of had not been made.The subject bad caused considerable correspondence during the last few months and a long despatch had recently been received from Her Majesty\u2019s Government, but it had not yet been replied to.He promised to inform Mr.Edgar when the correspondence was completed, and it could then be brought down to Parliament in due course.In reply to Mr.Smith (Ontario) the Premier stated that the Government was now considering the desirability of amending or relaxing the quarantine regulations now governing the importation and slaughtering of swine in bond.Mr.Mulock asked whether the household effects mentioned in the trade and navigation returns were those of persons removing from Canada.Comptroiler Wallace replied that it would be impossible to give this information without communicating with all the customs ports.Hon.Mr.Haggart, replying to Hon.Mr.Davies, stated that the receipts on the Prince Edward Island railway during the six months ending Dec.31 last were $92,- 073, and the expenses $130,391, a net loss of $38,317.There had not been any expenditure on capital account.In answer to another question by Mr.Davies, the minister of railways said that the receipts for the Intercolonial during the same period were $1,595.047 against expenses of $1,507,757, or a loss of only $2,710.The expenditure upon capital account during the six months was $170,820, $128,000 of which was expended at St.John, N.B., and $30,000 on the Ferry between Port Mulgrave and Point Tupper.THE BINDER TWINE DEBATE, Upon notices of motion being called, the finance minister ordered that the two Conservative resolutions inh favor of free corn and free coal oil should stand and thereupon Mr.Mulock got an opportunity to move his resolution in favor of the placing of binder twine on the free list.Mr.Mulock made a capital speech in support of relieving the farmers from this imposition and after reviewing the manner in which the Canadian market had been secured by the National Cordage Co.of the United States, asked why it was that they shonld be able to compete with the world at free trade prices while unable to supply the Canadian farmers except at protective rates.The duty levied under the N.P.was for the benefit of one concern alone, which was owned by seven people including Mr.Stairs, M.P.for Halifax, who was the president.The Government last year refused to abolish or reduce the duty because this was one of our infant industries.The prospectus recently published in the press by the Consumers\u2019 Gora.age company showed only too well the kind of infant industries which were now receive ing pap through the agency of the Government at the expense of the suffering farmers, He read extracts from the prospectus, as published in The Herald, and asked how much longer would the combine be allowed to prey upon Cenada\u2019s vital parts, The rospectus showed that the capital was £5.080,000.That was a nice kind of infant industry.Surely such a concern was entitled to pay its share of the expenses of the country instead of levying toll upon the farmers.Of the directorate of seven thres were American citizens, and of the remainder one was an M.P.and another an M.P.PA PROFITABLE INFANT INDUSTRY.The prospectus showed that this infant industry was so profitable that numerous friends were anxious to get in on the ground floor and the pressure from them was so reat that these seven philanthropists had decided to make sacrifices and increase their capital, which would thus further prop up this infant industry.The prospectus also showed the confidence of the directors to pay heavy dividends.Did thig look like an Takant industry ?The fnet was that à feu monopolists had taken advantage of the Noéissat alin ta hav nn af thd cordage 2 MONTREAL DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1893.= factories in the country and thus having got the farmers at their mercy extract thousands of dollars from their pockets for the benefit of an American combine.Further the directors boasted that they had no mortgage indebtedness aud that they possessed the second largest manufacture of the kind in the world.Truly this was an \u2018infant industry.\u201d They further alleged that their business covered so wide à territory that their products went in nearly every direction of the world.Where was the justice of protecting this industry which sold its product at free trade prices in other countries while charging exorbitant rates in Canada?The whole thing was blackmail and legalized robbery of the farmers.He contended that Mr.Stairs had practically violated the independence of parliament by using the machinery of the overnment for the - benefit of this com- Bone.The farmers of his county alone paid $10,500 to this monopoly last year and it was estimated that $300,000 was drawn from the farmers every year for binding twine alone.This was but one feature of the manner in which the farmers were being fleeced for the benefit of the monopolists The farmers of Canada bad determined without distinction of party that they should relieved of the enormous burden placed upon them by this obxoxious tax.They demand equal rights for all.The resolution was seconded by Mr.Semple in a stroug speech from a practical farmer\u2019s standpoint.DENOUNCED BY MR.DAVIN.Mr, Davin followed in an earnest denunciation of the cordage combine.There was no doubt in his mind thay the Consumers Cordage company was the ve of the National Cordage company, a\u201d __ charged that Mr.A.W.Morris, the vis, Efesident of the Consumers company.ad to go to New York and ask permission before he was allowed to be a candidate for the Quebec Legislature.He recalled the time when he and Sir Johr Macdonald went aboat the country advocating the establishment of protection.Mr.Landerkin\u2014You ought to be ashamed of yourself.Mr.Davin\u2014Not a bit of it, I am as strong » protectionist as ever, but the N.P.was intended to foster young industries, not to enrich wealthy corporations.He recalled the manner in which the cordage factories in Lachute, Quebec and St.Sonn had been closed by the combine, argued that a combine had no right to protection, and asked why it was that the monopoly was selling twine cheaper in the United States than in Canada.e confessed that he had aided to win the elections in South Perth and North- umberland last year by false pretences, for there he had promised the electors that this imposition would be removed.Although the farmers of the Northwest had had a fine harvest, they were now feeling as never before the pressure of high prices.They could only get 43} cents for their wheat, yet they were compelled to pay the highest price for everything they ad to buy.What was once a protective tariff has become an oppressive tariff and the protection to this Consumers Cordage company needed no mercy at all.Their stock was watered, and the farmer bad to pay interest on $1,500,000 to the foreigners.This monopoly had not put a cent into the concern, but the Canadian companies had been compelled to yield to the pressure of the American monopolists.This onerous, oppressive and unjust duty must be sweps away in the interests of protection itself and other people.A GOVERMENT PROMISE RECALLED.Mr.MacMillan (Huron), recalled the vote taken by the Government last year to establish a binding twine factory at Kincs- ton and asked whether they intended to proceed with it.The official statistics showed that the farmers of Ontario had been compelled to expend $102,687 last year for binding twine.But of this the Public Treasury had only received $7,932, leaving $94,750 to be divided among the monopolists, or in other words that for every dollar that was paid to the Government the Consumers Cordage company received $22.This was uot merely a mouldering branch, it was rotten to the core.Mr.McMullen joined in the demand for the repeal of the duty and asked why the farmers should be discriminated against in this mauner.The fishermen had their nets and twine free.The farmers should have the came privilege.Every farmers\u2019 institute and every lodge of the patrons of industry had demanded the repeal of this tax.The time was soon coming when the government must yield on this question.MINISTER FOSTERS REPLY Hon.Mr.Foster, replying, said that the government always welcomed any discussion tending to elucidate information on the tariff quescion, even though the motives of those who started the discussion were not of the most unsuspicious nature.He could not but believe that the action of the oppposition in bringing this motion forward at this time was due to a desire to embarrass the government.He wanted it to be well understood that the government did not yield to the Opposition in the desire for the public good.It was their duty to ascertain the true posi tion of public affairs and subsequently to do what was possible to enhance the public good.He would not now enter into à discussion of the question uponits merits.Within a very few weeks the Government would be prepared to lay before the House its tariff and commercial policy, but in the meantime they were not losing sight of this or any other tudustry.Hon.Mr.Mills\u2014That\u2019s a new policy.Hon.Mr.Foster\u2014It may be a new policy, but if it is, it is more than honorable gentlemen opposite have been able to ind.Instead of following the old flag and a new policy they want us to follow the old policy and a foreign flag.Proceeding he said that he could not in all reason be expected to now state the government\u2019s intentions.Time was young yet and it might be that Mr.Davin\u2019s rognostications that be (Mr.Foster) had been converted to see the evil of this tax might yet be correct or partly correct.It was all very well to say that every industry should stund upon its own footing, but they had to consider the varied circumstances regarding each industry.They had to consider the situation of the countries with which we traded and the position of their tariffs, and they had also to consider whether it would be giving an industry fair play if it was put in a position of disadvantsge.It was not putting them in a position of advantage to remove the buiwarks from them if they had to compete with other industries surrounded by strong bulwarks.He threw out this remark, not so much regarding this as in reforence to other industries.fo was quite possible to be a consistent protectionist and yet seek to amend the details of certain measures.He denied that the N.P.was meant to be unchangeable.It was one thing to have absolute confidence in certain correct principles under certain circumstances and not be inconsistent in being called upon to modify these principles under other circumstances.He hoped that Mr.Mulock would allow his resolution to stand until the Government had ,announced its inteutions in the matter ; but if he did not he would have to ask his friends Lo vote it down until such policy was announced.CEASED TO DESERVE PROTECTION.Col.O\u2019Brien agreed with the principles of he national policy as laid down by Mr.Davin, He regarded this subject as most ripe for discussion, for the moment any industry became a combine from that moment it.ceased to deserve protection.He accepted the declaration of the minister of finance and would wait for his announcement when the N.P.could be dealt with as a whole, for he (O\u2019Brien) was not prepared to deal with it piecemeal.If there was any doubt about the Government's intentions it had only itself to blame, for, though it would not have been expected that they should detail in the speech from the throne the particular changes which they contemplated, they should at least have given some intimation that they in- tonded to take action.The Govern.ment should be careful of its course now They had read one member out of the party because he was supposed to have said something against the tariff.Yet here in Parliament, they were receiving shots from various quarters in their own ranks.If the matter were pressed to a vote he would certainly support the resolution, but believing that it would be better to defer decision until the tariff announcements had been made, he would move the adjournment of the debate.NOT A NEW QUESTION.Sir Richard Cartwright could see no reason for delay.It was not as if it werea new question over which the Government might hesitate, but the subject had been discussed time and again and Mr.Mulock would not be doing his duty if he failed to test the opinion of the House.He doubted if in the whole list of iniquities contained in the whole of the tariff abominations, there was one which was more against the plainest dictates of common sense in a great agricultural country such as Canada.If they looked at the matter from a financial standpoint they would find that it gave practically no revenue.The duty resulted in a huge tax of some $8,000 being levied on every county in Ontario, und gave hardly one dollar to the public treasury for every twenty which went into the pockets of Mr, Stairs and his American friends.In this and other cases four or five times the amount received by the treasury went into the pockets of the monopolists.Moreover, this tax imposed a very heavy burden, not upon the whole country, but upon a special class.It was not a tax upon the Maritime Provinces nor upon the greater part of Quebec, but fell most heavily upon the Provinces of Ontario, Manitoba and the Northwest, upon that portion of Canada where it was most desirable that no impediment should exist to colonization nor to farmers obtaining the just reward of their labors.For eight years past the prices of agricultural products had een steadily falling, and were now lower than forty years past.time, and these were the conditions, under which the Government refused to ameloriate the position of the farmers.If they desired to promote immigration to Manitoba and the North-wesu they should avoid letting the world know that the farmers there were subjected to special and oppressive taxes which did not exist across the line.Another objection he had to this tax was that from the very moment when a number of charlatans endeavored to dupe the people that they would get rich by doubling their taxation, they inaugurated a system which became one of organized political corruption and compelled the business men of the country to plunder the people, who became slaves of monopoly.It was impossible that Mr.Stairs could give an unbiased vote on this subject.He and all others similarly situated must be prejudiced and he must look at the matter not as the member for Halifax but as the president of the Consumers Cordage Company.He (Sir Richard) would not say that Mr.Stairs had been assessed for the corruption fund, but if he had not he was a most remarkable exception.This tax was an outlaw of protection, because it was a combination which closed up a number of factories, and turned hundreds out of employment for the benefit of capitalists of another state who did not even spend their plunder in Canade.This was a kind of infant industry which an honest hercules like Sir John Thompson should take a pride in strangling, but he was afraid the serpents were toostrong.He coulil remember when the Manufacturers\u2019 association sent their paid secretary to Ottawa to assist the Government in drafting the tariff, and when that official was drawing pay from the Government as well as from the manufacturers.If the farmers were properly represented in the Cabinet THEIR WRONGS WOULD BE RIGHTED.The fishermen were able, by reason of having representatives in the Cabinet, to get their twine free, but the farmers had to whistle down the wind.He recalled Sir John\u2019s reported statement at Sherbrooke that the farmers of Canada were the most prosperous in the world, and declared that 1t was wholly destitute of fact.He (Sir Richard) knew that there were a number of agriculturists who were able to keep their heads above water, but there were very few indeed who were able to make ends meet.The fact was that the farmers of Canada were sinking from a position of independence to that of mere tenants at will He This was the would like to put that statement of Sir Jobn\u2019s in the hands of those ten thousand Ontario farmers whom the public records proved to be under chattel mortgages, the last signal of a farmers\u2019 utinost distress, in order that they might give their views upon the prosperity of the country.He defied Sir John w issue a conunission of enquiry into the number of mortgages and into the depreciation in the value ofland, for if such a commission were issued every statement made by him would be found to be well within the mark just as his statements respecting the exodus and the census had been substantiated.He was not afraid to assert that within 10 or 12 years the value of farm property alone had depreciated by $200,000,000.He (Sir Richard) had had an opportunity of inspecting the reports of a large number of loan societies; and the fact which struck him was the enormous depreciation of farm lands.He had also examined into the mortgage indebtedness of Ontario, and taking seven different counties as a sample, he could not find a concession or township in which there was not a farm free from mortgage.He did not blame the National Policy for the whole of the agricultural distress of the country, but when the farmers were so much afllicted the Government should not increase their burdens.The position of the farmer was largely due to the imprudence of the Government's policy, for, in addition to the Foster tariff they were burdened by the McKinley tariff, and were crushed \u2019twixt the upper aud the nether millstone.They had not only to pay the heavy burdens imposed by these tariffs, but they liad also to yield up enormous sums to the Stairs, the Drummonds and the other monopolists of the country.The McKinley tariff was undoubtedly due to the unconsidered policy of this Government towards the United States.He could not give Mr.Foster any credit for the reduction of the sugar duties, for he did not do it until the Americans had reduced theirs and because he could not help it.It was done in such a way as to reduce the inflow to the public treasury as much as possible, and to give as much as possible to the monopolists.The Go:ernment, under such circumstances, should tuke proper steps to relieve the burdens of the people.THEIR OLD EXCUSE.Sir John Thompson, after criticizing Sir Richard\u2019s methods, and accusing Him of \u201cworking in the language with which he was accustomed to disfigure the Hansard,\u201d and declaring that he wus not bound by any ordinary rules of debate or courtesy, denied that he had ever said that the Canadian farmers were the most prosperous in the world.The conduct of the opposition was most unreasonable.This was only the first week of the session, a month at least before it was possible to announce the tariff policy of the Governmeut, and no one except Sir Richard and his associates would expect that any intimation of policy would be given before the budget speech was delivered.Such a course would completely disorganize the business of the country.When the whole tariff policy of the Government was submitted then it would be open for consideration and discussion, He could not admit that Canadian farmers were any worse off than those in thiat country to which Sir Richard desired to annex us, the United States.(Oh, oh.) Replying to Col.O\u2019Brien, Sir John stated that he was of course at liberty to criticize the tariff or any other feature of the Government, but he had no right to say that the Government had read à member out of the party because he had criticized the taritt.Whatever this may have been based upon he (Sir John) desired to say that the Government had read no man out of the rty.If any member who had given them is support in the past was unable to continue that support the Government would regret it, but he had left he had read himself out of the party.The Government had neither done this in the past, nor would it do so in the future.THE EVENING SITTING.It being 6 o'clock the discussion lapsed for the day.After recess, the house went again into supply, and passed the item for the department of the Interior without serious discussion, except a fight over Mr.A.M.Burgess\u2019 not vacating.The remainder of the evening was spent in a discussion of the estimates for the high commissioners office which were finally carried after a somewhat animated debate.Sir John Thompson stated in answer to Mr.MacLean (York) that communications had been had with Her Majesty's government in recent years, in reference to the importance of the Hawaiian Islands asa possible station in connection with telegraphic communication with them, and Canadian interests which are involved in the independence of the country.As regards the recent movement no communication had passed between the Canadian government and Her Majesty's government partly on account of the latter being well aware of the interests involved and partly as this government had reason to believe that Her Majesty\u2019s goverument were fully alive to their importance as regards Canadian interests and other important interests in these islands.Mr.Foster told Sir Richard Cartwright that the budget specch would not be delivered next week, and the house adjourned at 10.40 p.m.NOTES OF THE SESSION.Mr.Mulock gives notice of motion for a return showing all the expenditure of every kind since confederation on the office of Governor-General and upon Rideau hall.The tariff reform wave continues.Mr.Monette now gives

HAWAIL EX-SENATOR MILLER URGES ANNEXATION TO THE UNITED STATES.Mr.Evans, a Commissioned Officer of Queen Liluokalani, Takes a Different View Of the Subject.New York, Feb.1.\u2014Ex-Senator Warne Miller yesterday said the time had come when the Hawaiian Islands should be under the control of the United States.\u201cI am in ravor,\u201d said he, \u2018of gaining possession ofthe country by annexation, or of having control of the country through an American protectorate.The condition of things regarding Hawaiian affairs is in such shape at present that the United States must decide one way or the other, And there is, in my judgment, only one way to decide Every naval officer is of the opinion that the Islands as a coaling station are indispensable aud they are also necessary to preserve our commerce in the Pacific.The claim is made by a few that Hawaii is too far out on the Pacific for the United States to have anything todo with it.Its distance from shore ought not to be regarded as unfavorable.On the contrary it is better to have a coaling station 2000 miles away than 1000 miles away from the shore.The United States cannot afford to permit England to get control of Hawaii and that is another way to look at it.England\u2019s possessions in the Pacific are already numerous.Of course complications may arise, before the affair is settled, but there are no treaties or anything of that kind in the way that cannot be overcome.The natives, I understand, who do not represent the best element of the Islands, are in the majority and some arrangement \u2018will have to be made so that they will not be in a position to control its policy if annexation should take place.\u201d ANOTHER SIDE TO THE STORY.Chicago, Feb.1.\u2014In a published interview Thomas Evans, a commissioned officer of Queen Liluokalani of Hawaii, who is visiting relatives here, is quoted as follows : **The causes leading to the revolution are ts be looked for cousiderably below the surface of what has been published in the despatches from San Francisco.This revolution has been brought about by interested parties with the view of improving their financial condition by inducing the United States to restore to them the advantages they received under the reciprocity treaty previous to the passage of the McKinley bill.Under this, Hawaiian sugar was adwitted into the United States free of duty, and the planters were making from 75 to 100 per cent.on their plantation investments.This remission of duty on the part of the United States has amounted to something like $6,000,000 a year,which has gone into the pockets of 30 or 40 men.Now that not more than 10 per cent.can be made on sugar cultivation, the planter is unable to reconcile liimself to the existing order of things.He sees in annexation the advantage of the two cent per pound bonus, and to get this he is ready to sacrifice the Hawaiian Queen, the Hawaiian people and everything and everybody else.The cause of the revolution is ascribed to the so-called \u2018\u2018new constitution\u201d to be proclaimed by the Queen.It would be well to wait for further advices before we accept this statement.This so-called \u2018new constitution\u201d was simply a restoration of the constitution uuder which the Hawaiian people were governed by King Kalakaua until the same interests that are now represented in the \u2018\u2018one to Washington\u201d committee and led by the same Lu Thurston, which has been objectionable both to the Queen and the majority of her subjects.It was in compliance with the demand of the natives, both in and out of Parliament, and of over two-thirds of the voters in the Kingdom, that the Oueen intended to return to the original constitution, which restored to the natives the franchise taken away by the last one, The ob- | atacles in the way of annexation are many.There is the Chinese question?How can the United States admit the Chinese, residents of Hawali, to citizenship.Most of these are coolies of the very lowest type, brought from China under contract to work on the plantations at $15 per month.How can we extend the invitation to these people to come into our fold, while our present laws remain on the statute Rooks?The debt of Hawaii is little less than $3,000,000, mostly held in England.There are other interests in Hawaii to protect besides the American planters.There are the interests of the natives, which cannot be overlooked.A little over 100 years ago these numbered 400,000.Through the introduction of civilization, with its clothing and whiskey, there remain scarcely 30,000, and instead of the magnificent physical specimens of manhood of yore with their large tracts of valuatle land, we have scurcely a moderately wealthy native left.Their lands have been gobbled up by the missionary, the adventurer and the speculator.To crown all, this committee comes now with the proposition to confiscate the entire kingdom, lands, natives und all.\u201d ANOTHER ST.JOHN, N.B., SCANDAL.A Prominent Cigar » Manufacturer Marries a -Fifteen-Year Old Girl.\u2019 St.Johu, N.B., Feb.1.\u2014There was considerable excitement about the city

À Pretty Petticoat.Not less than five yards of silk will make a petticoat, and that will not allow a flounce, One of the most effective Ways to trim a skirt is with three or four little quillines of inch wide satin ribbons to match the colors in the silk.This style of trimming lasts a long time lasts .A Pretty Combination.This little dancing gown is of yellqw crepe de chine, with rows of narrow black velvet ribbon set at intervals on the skirt.The large sleeves and bows at the front of the bodice are likewise of velvet.Wide revers of crepe de chine are bordered by narrow velvet and edged with creamy lace.Accordeon Plaiting.Accordeon plaiting must be a favorite with the directing power behind the throne of fashion.It caine, was discarded and is now again in high favor.A new idea in the fashioning of an evening gown is the introduction of the accordeon- plaited tunic.A Husband\u2019s Coldness.Husbands too often neglect to notice the dress of middle-aged wives.Not all of them by any means; one or two instances have occurred of late, but not one so amusing as that which happened after a dinner party not long ago.The guests were scattered about the double drawing rooms, the inner one of which was oblong, so that those sitting in the front room could only see about two thirds of it.A lady was talking about British manufacturers, and deploring the fact that English silk weaving has so seriously declined from its once prosperous estate, \u201cThere general,\u201d said she, \u2018look at that exquisite brocade that we can just see inside the folding doors there.Spital- fields could turn out as good as that, but we may be perfectly certain that that came from French looms, if we only knew.\u201d \u201cBy jove,\u201d.\u201d said the general, \u2018It\u2019s a lovely piece of stuff.Looks expensive, too.\u201d \u201cOh, about 25 shillings a yard.\u201d she said, when the wearer of the brocade rose and walked into the room showing herself to bethe general\u2019s wife.He had never noticed what she wore, which showed a very inadequate sense on his part of his marriage vows.No man can properly love and cherish à woman if he is careless as to what she wears.Too often he heeds only the bills, and] heeds them too much.-Chicago Herald.Notes About Women.At a recent wedding breakfast in Brooklyn the bride made a witty speech in response to the toast in her honor.George Du Maurier, the English \u201c\u2018gociety\u201d artist, asserts that women are growing taller, broader, and generally healthier.The fastest type-setter in California is said to be a young woman who is employed in a newspaper office at Santa rbara.Ouida has each of her favorite dogs cremated upon its death, and has a little \u201ccemetery\u201d for them connected with her home in Florence.An Indian girl student at Haskell Institute, Kansas, is named Jennie One Feather.She is a bright, intelligent student, and stands at the head of her class.Lady Pauncefote is one of the most popular women in Washington, and at a recent at home she had calls from 1,400 visitors whom she had never seen nor heard of.Mrs.Depew is in many respects quite the opposite to her witty husband.She has a serious face, big black eyes, long, straight features, and a low, sweet voice.Her favorite colors are garnet and mauve.Mrs.Charles Carroll, of New York, made an arctic voyage as part of her wedding trip in 1801.The wife of Capt.Healy has made four cruises to the Arctic Ocean on the revenue cutter Bear with her husband.The Empress Eugenie devotes two or three hours each day to writing her memoirs, but so sensitive is she about her work that she allows no one to look at her mans uscript, and has made special arrangements that her book shall not be published until she has been dead twenty- five years.Mrs.Langtry\u2019s home in Point street, London, is an extremely luxurious little place, one striking feature in it being her drawing room, which is very ornate in heliotrope and green, and has a huge couch occupying nearly the whole of one side of the room, covered with superb skins, and with a wonderful array-quite an armory-of barbaric weapons on the wall at the back.The Burning Sentiments, \u201cMr.J.Smith : Dear Sir-You will confer a favor on me by returning all the letters I wrote to you, if you have not destroyed them.Respectfully, Ethel Jones.\u201d \u201cMiss Jones-I am sorry I cannot return your loving letters, though I did not destroy them.They destroyed themselves by spontaneous combustion.Regretfully, J.Smith.\u201d-Minneapolis Journal.Asker\u2014Didn\u2019t your wife inherit something from her mother ?Stuckley\u2014Yes, a good deal.Asker \u2014 What was the nature of it ?Stuckley\u2014Mostly temper.\u2014 Detroit Free Press.There is no help for the case of the woman who can\u2019t get a servant.\u2014Philadelphia Record, The Black Box Murder.BY MAARTEN MAARTENS.No.46 Lovells Canadian Series.CHAPTER X.(Confinued.) THE LETTER.\u201cI am glad to hear that,\u201d I said politely, \u201calthough it will make my request for assistance all the more troublesome.Might I ask, do you make them in various sizes!\u201d \u201cWe du.There are three sizes.I will let you see them.\u201d We went into the show-room.There stood in a prominent position, three boxes, made exactly like the one I had seen in Francois Dubert's police station, only of different dimensions.I immediately selected the medium one.\u2018\u201cThat is the box I am in search of,\u201d 1 sald, \u2018and all that I want to know is, have you sold such a box recently toa Miss-Orr Simpkinson, and another, probably some time before, to a Mr.Harvey?!\u2019 \u2018As for the first half of your question, I can answerthat immediately-can answer it from memory,\u201d said Mr.Elder, without a moment's hesitation.\u2018We sold a box about a week ago to a lady of that name at Southend.I remember her writing about it, describing what she wanted, and saying that a gentleman had recommended us.I can show you the letter\u201d He stalked off to a file hanging in his office, and, after a little searching, and one or two exclamations-such as, *\u2018That\u2019s it!\u201d \u201cNo, it's not!\u201d and so on-produced a sheet of notepaper, which he triumphantly laid on the table.It was a short note from Miss Simpkin- son, dated from Southend, stating that the lady desired to have one of Messrs.Browne & Elder's plain black boxes, size No.2-thirty shillings-recommended by a gentleman who had recently purchased one.The letter was barely ten days old.A cheque for the amount due had been enclosed, as shown by the postscript.A second postscript-rather a supertiuous one, it seemed to me-stated that Miss Simpkinson required the box for packing photographic apparatus.\u201d \u201cThat proves one half,\u201d I said-*\u2018but by far the least important half.Now, as to Mr.Harvey.Can you also help me- if only half as well-with regard to the box purchased by a Mr.Harvey?\u201d \u2018Harvey, Harvey,\u201d said the trunk- maker, passing a capacious hand over à fat forehead.\u2018\u2018\u201c\u2019That must be some time back.I do not remember the name.\u201d He turned to a bulky ledger lying on the table, and began looking over the pages.He ran his finger rapidly down the long list of names.I stood watching anxiously.As for Miss Simpkinson\u2019s purchase, that was of very little importance; I knew enough of it already.But to find out the existence, perhaps the address, of the possessor of the second black box-that was altogether a different matter.Mr.Elder knitted his eyebrows.\u201cThe name\u2019s not here,\u201d he said.must have been last year.\u201d He took down another unwieldy volume, and began hurrying through it in the same way.Suddenly his face brightened.\u2018Here's a Mr.Harvey,\u201d he said My heart gave a great leap.He pushed the book towards me, and showed me the entry.A black box, size No.1, had been sold fifteen months ago to a Mr.John Harvey, a ship's surgeon, and sent to him on board ship at Southampton.\u201c\u201cThat\u2019s not the man,\u201d I said; but I noted down the fuct, all the same.In my mind, however, I dismissed the ship\u2019s surgeon at once.Besides, the box in Paris was a No.2.Mr.Elder most obligingly looked through another half year, and then closed the voluine.\u2018I need go no further back,\u201d he said, \u201cfor we brought out the boxes about that time.They have not been in the market for more than a year and a half.\u201d I thanked him rather balf-heartedly.I wondered to myself whether he could have missed the entry.It was hardly probable.\u2018Can you distinguish the boxes?\u201d I asked.\u2018\u201c\u2018Have they all different keys?\u201d \u2018Oh, yes,\u201d he answered, \u2018\u2018they all have different keys.We never allow two similar keys to leave our premises on any account.In fact, the chief expense of the black boxes-cheap as they are-is the excellent lock we supply with them.We number all our keys.I couldput my finger on any given number at once, in case of a customer's writing to have his key replaced.\u201d \u201cDo you number the keys?\u201d I asked,\u2019 \u2018\u2018or the lock?\u201d \u201cThe key-the key only.It would hardly be safe to number the lock.\u201d That explained my seeing no number.I think I should hardly have overlooked it.But all this was provokingly useless to me now.I had no pretext fos prolonging my vigit.I thanked Mr.Elder for his kindness, and took my leave.As for my Philip Harvey, he seemed to have grown a very mythical personage.None the less, I could not get the similarity of the P.H.and the handwriting of the letter out of my head.It was too extraordinary acoincidence.The only advantage I had derived from my visit to the trunk- maker was that I had obtained Miss Simpkinson's Southend address.« \u2018It \u2014 CHAPTER XII.THE CRUMPLED CARD.I left Messrs.Browne & Elder's premises in rather a dejected state.Perhaps I was unreasonably dejected.I had built too implicitly on the \u2018Philip Harvey\u201d theory, and now I could not deny to myself that, after all, I had no proof, absolutely no proof, of theexistence of such a persou, All the same, I felt that he did exist, and that, somehow, I must get hold of evidence of his existence, and of his whereabouts.I had obtained possession of Miss Simpkinson's Southend address- 23 Marine Parade.She must have lived only a few houses off from Miss Raynell, for that unfortunate lady, as Mr.Harvey had told me, had occupied apartments at No.17.I started for Southend that afternoon.In the train I mused gloomily on the case.My entire view of it rested on the assumption that the black box which had contained the corpse belonged toa Mr.Philip Harvey, but I had no other proof of the existence of such a person than the P.H.faintly scrawled into a corner of the luggage-label I had discovered, and the letter to Austin from some Philip, surname unknown.I had to admit that this was not much.As soon as I reached Southend, I went to No.23.It was an ordinary lodging- house, exactly like all lodging-houses at all English seaside places.There was a frame with \u2018\u2018Apartments\u201d over the hall door, but there was no card with \u201cTo let\u201d in any of the

Farmers\u2019 Congress.This gathering in the Parliament build- Ing at Quebec was without doubt an important event in the agricultural world of this province.It was called at short notice, the program was made up in a few duys by the executive committee of the Dairy Association, and all the arrangements were perfected by the Department of Agriculture at Quebec while the session of the Legislature was going on, and yet with all these difficulties in the way, the meeting was highly successful.The program was followed closely and on the whole was satisfactory, the meetings were largely attended, not only by repre- tentative men from all over the province md by all politicians and others who pose as friends of the farmer, but slso by many of the ordinary hard-work- \u2018ng farmers themselves.Of course most of these come from the neighborhood of Quebec, but the delegation from the Lake Bt.John parishes made a strong and interesting addition to the audiences.The show meeting which took place in the council chamber on the first evening, when the Lieut.-Governor, the Premier and Hon, Mr.Joly spoke in addition to Professors Saunders, Barnard and Robertson, was very successful, and although many looked upon it as only for show, still it had its good influence.One of the most important results of such a gathering is the publicity which will accrue to the subjects under discussion, and to the facts relating to the agricultural world.In no way can this widespread publicity be so effectively secured as by such a mgeting with the presence and the speeches of the highest personages of our Provincial official world.The press will give to their readers information in regard to the farmers, of which otherwise they would take no notice.It is a regrettable fact that the French press of the Province have not accorded that space or attention to agricultural matters that their importance merits, but when they find Mr.Chapleau, Mr.Taillon, Mr.Joly and others whom they know well speaking at a meeting they report their words and thus draw attention to the subject As their meetings took place in the rooms of the Legislature, the members and councillors were attracted to them and heard much that is of use to them, and which ought to aid them when bills are brought up dealing with agricultural matters.It is true that the members were so busy during these days with the Montreal bill, and on one day with a winisterial caucus, that as many as ought to have attended were not present.In consequence of the novelty of the gathering many of the farmers did not take in and understand either the program or the proposals, and there is no doubt thet many of the conclusions or recommendations eventually passed as representing the views of the Congress did not have that thorough ventilation which another time such resolutions will receive.Still they were drawn up by the leaders in the present movement for agricultural improvement, and most of them are sound in fact and in reason.Some may have to be modified when the opinions of the average farmer have to be considered.Many of them are perhaps too far advanced beyond the present practice to be acceptable to the average habitant or even comprehensive to him.Still these very things would be an immense advantage to him if adopted.The work of the congress was divided into sections, and these different proposals were submitted generally in papers read hy those who had given thought and study to the question submitted.The presidents of the various sections made a resume of the discussions and views put forward, and founded recommendations for the general congress to adopt if it saw fit.In the final stages of the congress these recommendations were adopted without much discussion, though it was evident that to some of them there was objection on the part of farmers present who had not managed to hear the papers or discussions on which the recommendations were based.Another time the procedure will be better understood, and the people will come together after more thought, and so better prepared to discuss intelligently the subjects.The recommendations were directed partly to the people, as, for instance, that urging the adoption of the system in dairy factories of paying for milk according to its quality instead of by weight.Again other Tecommendations were to the Legislature or Parliament, as that asking for a law to require any cheese made from skimmed milk to be stamped to show the fact; others again to the Department of Agriculture, as, for instance, that asking that factory inspectors should be required during next season to give practical demonstration of testing milk or calculating the dividend at factories by the test in comparison with the dividend by the ordinary method.Even if these recommendations have not as much weight as those of future congresses will have after thorough ventilation of the representations of all classes of farmers, there is no doubt that most of them, if not all, are valuable and in the right direction.Time and people both were lacking to take up all and every subject connected with farming, but we will hope that in future more attention will be paid to the management and treatment of the land.Naturally here, under the auspices of the Dairy Association, that branch received the most attention, and the audiences were much larger in the dairy section than in any other.After all, however, without good crops neither dairying nor any other kind of farming can be carried on,and so treatment of the land is the base of all agriculture.as the very name implies.Draining, cultivation, the solls suitable to various crops, etc., etc., must be treated of and discussed.Another question which must come into the next congress is that of colonization.The Lake St.John delegation expressed their dissatisfaction with the Legislature for having decreased the grants to this object and wanted opportunity to lay their views before the congress.The program was already full and too long to be properly finished and so these men had to be disappointed.As a first effort of the kind a good beginning has been made.Every class in the community who reads a newspaper knows that the farmers can give voice to their views, and many must have read these views, which will deepen their interest in what is of national importance, and closely connected with all the businesses of our people.Those who were present also were struck with the respectable appearance and intelligent comments and remarks of the farmers, and justly made the naive acknowledgment that they would hardly have realized that it was a farmers\u2019 meeting but for the subjects under discussion.The day of the poor ignorant habitant in his etoffe du pays is past and a new and more active, better informed and progressive generation has arrived on the scene, which is ready and able to stand up for their rights and willing to study so that their demands are such that the whole people will be ready to acknowledge their justice and accord them promptly.Mr.McShane\u2019s Defeat.Mayor McShane was beaten yesterday, as he richly deserved to be.His conduct in forswearing all his promises made during the election of 1891, and impudently nominating himself perpetual mayor, merited severe condemnation.True the, majority against him is not large, but there are very good explanations of its smallness.In the first place, Mr.Desjardins was a weak candidate.He is not known to the masses.He is inexperienced in public affairs.He was nominated largely through the efforts of men who are distrusted by the people.All these things helped to make many indifferent to the result of the mayoralty election.A good many citizens did not vote yesterday, and it is safe to say that they were all against Mr.McShane.With a thoroughly qualified candidate opposing him-Mr.Rolland, for instance-Mr.McShane would have been in a much greater minority, Mr.McShane was beaten by a weak candidate because his cause was utterly bad.Mr.Desjardins is elected, but he is not yet mayor.In the event of general elections being ordered for March 1st, we trust that Mr.strictly to private business\u201d and permit the citizens of Montreal to elect for may- | or a man who is admirably qualified for the position.Rolland.J.D.Such a man is Mr.Yesterday's Elections Should Not Be : Legalized.Yesterday's elections were on the whole satisfactory.Though null and void in law they were valuable as an index to the temper of the public.Some of the worst of the aldermen were beaten; Mayor McShane's Caesarean ambition was snuffed out ; and some capable new men were elected.All this was done on a somewhat light vote, induced by the obvious illegality of the whole proceedings.Itis but an indication of what would happen McShane will attend | in a general election where an approximately full vote of the people would be polled.There wou d be, under those circumstances, almost a clean sweep of the present aldermen,and that is a consummation devoutly wished by the people of this city.T he plot by which it was hoped to re-elect the outgoing aldermen and then secure a legalization of the elections by the legislature has failed in part, at least; and if the citizens act vigorously it may be completely checkmated.Yesterday's elections should not be legalized; and the new aldermen by joining in the request for general elections on March 1st will insure their re-election on that day.A desperate attempt will be made by some members of the civic rump to prevent tlie wishes of the citizens being gratified ; and with a legislature of such doubtful quality as that at Quebec, they may succeed.We understand that petitions will go to the legislature so largely signed by Montreal citizens as to leave no doubt of the wish of the people of Montreal in this matter, and if the representatives of the city divisions and the adjoining constituencies do their duty it is not probable that members from other parts of the Province will dare to override them.If the urban and suburban members are false they may rely upon their retirement from public life being coincident with the next provincial general elections.MR.GrEzNsHIELDs\u2019 in his admirable address to the Board of Trade on the occasion of his retirement from its Presidency, dealt with many questions of interest to Montreal.But none of these is mora important than the matter of free canals, which he discussed at some length.Our canal tolls, as a source of revenue, are oË little value, the yearly receipts being only about S300,000 ; but they are sufficiently onerous to heavily handicap Canada\u2019s inland navigation.It must be remembered that the American canals are free.The national canals have always been open; and in 1882 the New York State made the Erie canal free.The latter waterway is little better than a ditch, but being free it is something more than a match for the Welland and St.Lawrence canals, and trade goes in consequence to New York that should come here.Moreover, the rebate on grain cargoes passing through the Welland canal bound for Montreal will be no longer granted; and this will further handicap this city.The time ig opportune for a vigorous agitation for free canals.THE SUPPORTERS of Mr.Angers accuse the Opposition critics of saying things that they would not dare repeat if he were present to defend himself in the House of Commons.Two good chances to enter the House were offered to Mr.Angers upon his elevation to the Min- seclusion in the Upper Chamber.The party which fathered the franchise act should never talk of cowardice anyway.IF IT WERE really necessary that Mackenzie Bowell should tell the venerable pariizan, those venerable gentlemen must have been fast asleep during the last 20 years.But it is hard to believe that even a senator could sleep that fast.ONE OF THE most satisfactory features of yesterday's election was the defeat of Ald.Grenier in St.Jean Baptiste.He was one of the most offensive of the \u2018\u2018patronage\u201d hunters, and his inter- meddling in the waterworks was partion- larly scandalous.THE Mayor of Montreal who hereafter aspires to a third term will have a good deal of nerve.WANTED, by the citizens of Montreal, in or about March lst, a general election.No THIRD TERM mayor for Montreal.\u2018WE TOLD you so, James.MACKENZIE AND MACDONALD.Tributes to Their Memory By Mr.Greenshields, The following is the conclusion of Mr.E.B.Greenshields\u2019 address to the Board of Trade : Canada has suffered a great loss in the death, on the 17th of April, 1892, of the Hon.Alexander Mackenzie.When our great statesmen pass away from the scene of their earthly labors, and reach the quiet and rest beyond the grave, it is right that we should recall the services they rendered to their country, and forget the points on which we dffered, or the side of polities to which their life work was given.Their lives and characters and great deeds do indeed become part of the heritage of all Canadians, Born in 1822, one of that enterprising race of Scotsmen who have done so much to make the colonies of Great Britain what they are.Mr.Mackenzie came to this country quite young, and rapidly made his mark.His career was one of great usefulness, and he rose to be Premier of the Dominion.He was offered the honor of knighthood, but declined it, true to the principles he had always advocated.He was a man of great capacity, simple and manly in his habits, very unselfish, and with a high sense of honor, characteristics as fine as they are rare, and his loss is deplored by men of all races and creeds in Canada.His name will always be revered, and he has already secured in the hearts of his countrymen thet lasting monument spoken of by the poet of old.He passed away, whilethere was yet ringing in our ears the patriotic dying words of his great rival and friend, Sir John A.Macdonald, in which he declared his unfaltering determination to be loyal to the British crown, It is right that his eloquent words should never be forgotten, but should find an abiding place in every heart.He did, indeed, Yee and die a loyal British Canadian, and it is gratifying to know that our greatest and most successful statesman, who held firmly the Imperial idea, that the Anglo-Saxon Empire was the greatest agency for good nown to the world, is honored in the E.B.mother country as well as here.Amid the silence and grandeur of the vast cathedral of St.Pauls, istry, but he fled the issue and sought\u2019 gentlemen of the senate that he is a : Li where England's \u2018\u2018greatest sailor and her \u2018\u2018greatest soldier\u201d lie buried, there in the heart of the capital of the British Empire he loved so well, a memorial has been erected to his memory, and unveiled in the year that is past-an acknowledgment that to the long and glorious roll of honor of British statesmen there has been added the name of the greatest colonial statesman her Empire has ever seen.Macaulay, in speaking of Westminster Abbey, \u2018that temple of silence and reconciliation,\u201d says of the monuments erected there to British statesmen : High over them all towers the stately monument of Chatham, and from above, his image, carved with skilful hand, seems still with eagle eye and outstretched arm to bid England be of good cheer, and to hurl defiance at her foes.Thus in our mind's eye do we see our great statesman, Sir John A.Macdonald, towering above his fellow-men; thus do we see him standing, with eagle eye and outstretched arm, calling on all Canadians to be of good cheer, and hurling defiance at the foes of this country.His Enemy Did It.Sir John (vocifernusly)\u2014¢ It was that sneak Laurier changed that, I'll bet.\u201d\u2014 Grip.\u2014i0i\u2014 We have special art- iets, late

still alarm was sent in to No.4 fire station for a fire in the flooring of one of the rooms of the Balmoral.It was quickly extinguished, the damage being slight.At 6.20 p.m.box 19 was rung in.The fire was found to be in the flooring of the dwelling house of Mr.Carmichael, 4} Busby lane.A stream was laid on by No.91, which quickly extinguished the blaze.No.4 salvage corps used one Babcock and spread five covers.The damage will not be very heavy.The members of the Montreal Butter and Cheese Trade held their annual drive yesterday.A large number turned out and a most enjoyable and successful drive

Coming © Attractions.Gilbert & Sullivan's beautiful opera, the \u201cGondolicrs,\u201d delighted a large ana fasiion- able audience at the Academy lust night and brought out the tulent of the company.The orchestra and chorus was excellent, and a first class performance was given.The scenery and costumes were elaborate and characteristic of the Dutf Co.Miss Helen Bertram appeared in the bewitching role of Gianetta, and sang with marvellous effect\u2019 the pleasing lines of this part.In the duet with Tessa, \u2018Now Maceo dear,\u201d she brought down the house, and had to respond toa warmly demanded eucore.Miss Villa Knox filled the role of Cusilda ina charming manner, her every movement being followe with interest.Mr.J.H.Ryley as the * Duke of Playo Toro\u201d was thoroughly at home, investing this excentric character with very finetouches of humour.Mr.Charles Bassett and Mr.Raphael sang the roles of the two principal gondoliers.Both were in fine form and voice, and were recalled in some of their numbers The chorus work all through the opera was very much appreciated, and the chorus and dance in the second act had to be repeated twice.Tonight the company will present Carre and Messagnis Basoche, an opera which is- cust in Paris and deals with the gay scenes of student iife.To-morrow \u2018A Trial by Jury\u201d and Cavalleria Rusticana will be produced.On account of the large demand for seats for the performance of *\u2018 Cavalleria Rusticana \u201d on Friday evening, the management has decided to give the final performance of this much admired opera on Saturday at the matinee, instead of \u2018\u2018 A Trip to Africa,\u201d as previously announced.PIRATES OF PENZANCE.A fair house greeted the first performance of the \u2018Pirates of Penzance\u201d at the Queen\u2019s Theatre last evening, by the Montreal Operatic Society ; perhaps aot as large as they deserved, as both the principals and the chorus did great credit to the training of Mr.Horace W.Reyner, A.C.O., musical director, who certainly has worked hard, rehearsing the piece during the past two months.The story of the opera is too well known to theatre goers to repeat again, and as to the scenery, there was à complete reproduction of the original scenery in both acts ; the sea shore of the coast of Cornwall and the ruined chapel scenes.The orchestra, under Mr.Cavallo, served in a great measure to make the performance the success it was, and in some places did a great deal to dispell the nervousness of the amateur performers.Miss C.Reyner as \u2018\u2018Mabel,\u201d one of Major-General Stanley\u2019s daughters, had to sustain the most difficult part in the opera, aud she took her part naturally and gracefully, without either overdoing it or lacking in the finesse necessary to interpret the part, her fine voice showing to the best advantage.Her love song with Frederick was very enthusiastically received, and in the second dct, where her dramatic powers were called into play, she showed her careful study of the part.Miss Edith Gray as \u201cEdith,\u201d Miss Eva Conway as ,\u2018Kate,\u201d and Miss Jessie Hoilis as Jeabol,\u201d as other daughters of General Stanley, filled the parts cast for them with an exactness often beking in amateurs, frequently getting hearty applause.Miss Maude Fuller as \u201cRuth, a pirate maid of all work,\u201d was, when acting, very good but at times her voice was hardly strong enough for the part, though she may improve to-night, the first night never being the most successful.Inthe male parts the principal interest centred in Mr.E.Duquette as \u2018\u2019The Pirate King,\u201d Mr.J.Dougherty as **Major General Stanley,\u201d and Mr.G.H.McLeod, \u2018The Pirate Apprentice.\u201d Mr.Dough- erty shared the honors with Mr.Duquette and Mr.McLeod, his topical song introducing several very clever local hits.Mr.Duquette\u2019s fine bass voice won him well deserved encores on three or four occasions, while Mr.McLeod filled his part as *\u2018 Fredrick,\u201d combined with stage manager, to the entire satisfaction of the audience and the company.The choruses also deserve mention for their good work.The daughters of Gen.Stanley, though at times slightly weak, were on the whole very efficient.The pirates\u2019 chorus was as good as many professional companies.At times the policeman\u2019s chorus was a little weak, but towards the end of the evening improved wonderfully.Mr.Sutherland Brodie, their sergeant, was splendid, his clever conception of his character received hearty applause each timethe policeman appeared.After the drop of the curtain the company received an enthusiastic recall, when they came out and san \u201cGod save the Queen.\u201d From the sale o seats the Montreal Operatic Society should have good houses for the rest of the week.MADAME JANAUSCHEK.Admired by audieuces in this country and Europe, Janauschek will bow before à Montreal, audience on Monday evening at the Academy of Music.Jauauschek is considered to be a great exponent of Shakeapeare\u2019s roles, and the sublime force with which she couches the character of Lady Macbeth, in Shakespeare\u2019s beautiful tragedy, excites both the admiration and enthusiasm of her auditors, The advance sale is very encouraging.The repertoire for the week includes, besides Macbeth, Marie Stuart, Earl of Essex, and a grand production of Meg.Merrilles.REILLY AND WOODS.The carnival attraction at the Theatre Royal will be Reilly and Wood\u2019s Specialty Company.Their appearance here will date from next Monday, and judging by the success they have attained in other cities, as shown by the favorable press comments, they will prove a very strong attraction.The Vaudeville stars who conduct the first part of the performance are artists of the highest rank.Among the most noticeable performers are Nelson, the juggler; Burke, the comedian ; Miss Grace Foster, the brothers Borani, Miss Lily Laurel, and the Nelson sisters.The laughable farce, \u201cHades and the 400,\u201d as presented by Ford and Lewis, is a special feature of the evening.Pat.Reilly, as Mephisto Mick, is a great success and his assistant, Vita, as Charlie Ah There, shares the honors with him.The company is a large one and deserves every success.THE COMING NATIONAL ENTERTAINMENT.The Canadian National League committee now give some more details of the program for their first annual entertainment.Besides the national songs by a chorus of 300 school children and an address by Principal Grant, of Kingston, they announce two recitations, in Indian costume, by the celebrated Miss Pauline Johnson, the poetess and reuder, of whose attractions on the platform Western papers have so much to say.Miss Ella Walker is also to sing, andthe favorites, Messrs.J.C.Barlow and A.G.Cunningham, are on the list.Mr.L.O.Armstrong will provide a limelight series of Canadian historical pictures and views put together specially for the occasion.The whole w:ll be advertised from Saturday next.\u201cTHE MOON.\u201d Prof.Charles S.Howe, Ph, D., of the Case School of Applied Science, is to give a lecture in the \u201c\u2018Étar\u2019 Course on

United States.The lecture, which is to be well illustrated by lantern slides, takes place in the Windsor Hall to-morrow night, and an enjoyable evening is no doubt in store for all who attend.A Single

HERALD, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1093.= pu SHIPPING ES CORRESPONDENCE.works, nail, screw and bolt factories, ete., RAILWAYS.SHIPPIN tare The Matter of Expropriations.To the Editor of The Herald: ; Sir, \u2014How to deal with expropriations is one of the most important topics now engrossing the attention of real estate owners in the city of Montreal.The very numerous uncompleted expropriations and the ever increasing call for money to meet the costly expense attending them must of necessity have the most careful and thoughtful consideration of the more prudent and the business men of the community.At the present time there are uncompleted expropriations which will cost somewhere in the vicinity of $1,443,000.It is only too well known that fabulous prices are given to proprietors for anything expropriated,even downtoafew gooseberry bushes, that the expenses attending the present method of procedure are unnec- cessarily high, and that the length of time taken by the Commissioners to per- forin the work is unreasonable.What should be done in a few weoks often drags along for months, and the Commissioners are the only persons benefitted by the delay.A change must be made.The present expropriation law must be repealed in toto.Let us have a clean sweep.No patching up, no tinkering, no half measures, but let us look ab the thing in a business-like manner ; and not only look but take some active measures to assert our rights as citizens, and to protect ourselves against the present ruinous method of expropriation.Supposing the repeal of the present law to be an accomplished fact, it becomes necessary to provide another in its place, and the following suggestions may be used to advantage in dealing with the matter.In many of the English and continental cities, properties are acquired for city improvements, by purchase, by arbitration and by the jury system, but here a more simple mode might be adopted with great advantage.The first thing to be done is to provide à tribunal for the business of expropriations.A commissioner or commissioners should preside, the appointment of these being made either by the Provincial Government, or still better by a regular city election, and either for a term or for life, or during good behaviour.That these commissioners be paid a fair salary to devote all their time to the work, and have vested in them all the powers of a judge or judges of the Superior Court, and that their awards be subject to review by the judges of the Superior Court sitting in review.That the commissioners have power to appoint two salaried stenographers and other officers of their court, and that the expenses be borne by the city expropriation fund.Then comes the question of paying for improvements.The present system is unsatisfactory, unjust, unfair and in many cases an actual hardship.Many properties are taxed from time to time for opening streets, which imetead of benefitting them actually injure them.The doctrine that all improvements are a benefit to the citizens generally, must be admitted and therefore it is the duty of all the citizens to contribute towards their cost except in cases where back lands are given a frontage or narrow lanes are converted into wide streets, then half of the whole cost should be borne by the proprietors, within the frontage limit of such special improvement.No expropriation of portions should be allowed, the city must take the whole lot and after using the portions required, sell the residues at such time as may be most advantageous to the city.Probably in practice it will be found that the sale of the residues will groduce a sum sufficient, or perhaps more than sufficient, to pay the whole cost of the improvement.However, to give the system a fair start, and to be perfectly safe and secure, it will be necessary to be in a position to purchase the properties required, and supposing that $3,600,000 is required for prospective improvements it would be easy to borrow this amount at 4 per cent per annum, and provide for the repay-¢ ment with interest, say in fifty years, How?Simply by abolishing all exemptions from taxation.Herein lies the whole secret of success.Now for a few facts and figures.According to the city treasurer\u2019s last report the assessed value of the city is $107,247,980, and property exempted from taxation is placed at $21,165,020, so that it will be seen that nearly one sixth of the property is contributing nothing to the oity\u2019s funds, bus that the other citizens are actually paying for these exempt properties.It must be borne in mind that many of the exempt institutions hold far more land than is actually necessary for their legitimate purposes; for instance, take the Grey Nunnery on Guy street and the Mignonne Street Reformatory; and that they are prefiting silently but surely by the continued increase in the value of their properties.Taking $21,000,000 as the assessed value of exempted properties, they would if assessed contribute $210,000 per snnum to the city\u2019s funds.The annual Interest on $3,500,000 at 4 per cent.would be only $140,000, so that there would be each year a surplus of $70,000 to be set aside as a sinking fund, and sufficient to carry out improvements and repay the loan within fifty years.Having thus dealt with the matter, I now commend the scheme to the consideration of my fellow-citizens.H.RicHARDSON RICHARDS, 69 Temple Building.AN Progress of Lachine.To the Editor of The Herald: Sir,\u2014This well-known summer resort is rapidly becoming a favorite suburb to reside in both winter and summer, and, considering its beauty of location, and its easy and rapid access from Montreal, it cannot fail to increase in proportion.In the upper part of Lachine, overlooking Lake St.Louis, several wide avenuos have recently been opened ; Broadway Avenue, 80 ft.wide, extending from the G.T.R.; Upper Main Line Station to the water side of Stoney Point, or Popham\u2019s Corner ; Dawes\u2019 Avenue, running from the Upper Station to the Water Side Wharf Station, near the Lachine Boating aud Canoeing Club House.Several others are to be opened this spring.On Broadway avenue several fine residences have already been built, and two others are being erected by the Messrs.Dawes.Others will be commenced in the spring.Miss Johnson has just completed a very pretty cottage fronting the lake, at the corner of Cross\u2019 avenue, leading from Broadway avenue to the lake side.The tower has now a completed system of water works in operation, and is lighted by electricity.À contract for a term of years for an electric railway has been given which is expected to be in running order this year.A complete system of drainage is in course of construction and will be completed at an early date.In the lower part of the town, near Dominion and Conventstations, there are & number of manufacturing establishments, viz: Dominion bridge works, wire employing a large number of workingmen and ofiicials.For the past few years there has been a great demand for houses in Upper La- chine, for occupancy for the year round, but they were not to be had.Even now there are people looking for houses for next spring, and it is a fact that if fifty houses were being built they would all be taken up before completion.For the two houses now being erected on Broadway avenue there are already a number of applicants.The train service between Montreal and Lachine is excellent.Last summer there were 18 tarins each way daily, and a sufficient number to accommodate the residents during the winter.The G.T.R.company have intimated that there will be an increased service this year.Several of the trains each way make the journey between Montreal and Lachine in 15 minutes, A ConsTaNT READER OF THE HERALD.Lachine, Jan.31.The Truth of the Matter.To the Editor of The Herald : Sir-Mr.N.Flood Davin, M.P., having publicly stated, last evening, that \u2018\u2018the British House of Commons has no say in the choice of members of the Cabinet,\u201d will you give me room to explain that their several constituencies have the opportunity to elect or reject them before they receive the seals of office?Might I, at the same time, state for Mr.J.X.Perrault\u2019s satisfaction, that the rule of the British Colonial Office over Canada is not an iron one, and that the common-sense citizens of the Dominion are quite satisfied to be protected and defended by the strongest power existing.Perhaps, though Canada continues \u2018the commercial enemy of England\u201d and will not allow her a minimum tariff, your correspondent may be pleased to learn Canada has arranged a minimum tariff to France in reciprocity.Nor a Horiricau PARASITE, The New Westinghouse Incandescent Lamp.The new rival to the Edison incandescent lamp has been publicly exhibited at the works of the makers, the Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Company, of Pittsburg.The Westinghouse mpany not only claim that they are enabled by this lamp to evade the hitherto all embracing Edison patent, but that the construction of the new lamp is so simple and the materials used so inexpensive that they can manufacture it at a greatly reduced cost.The glass globe is formed with a shoulder, and is thickened out in the form of the neck of a bottle.The interior of the opening is conical, and is ground to correspond in shape to the ground conical stopper which carries the leading-in wires.The stopper is in the form of a single piece of lass cast around the leading-in wires.An important part of the invention is the use of iron instead of platinum for the leading-in wires.The substitution of iron for platinum effects a great saving in the cost of the lamp.In putting the lamp together the stopper and conical mouth of the globe are covered with varnish or cement, and the stopper is introduced into its place.The filament is attached to the inner ends of the leading-in wires, and the exhaustion of the globe from the other end proceeded with.This operation is done by the Sawyer-Man process Nitrogen gas is introduced in the globe from time to time, and withdrawn again for the purpose of more perfectly extracting the oxygen and leaving practically only nitrogen in whatever small portion of atmosphere which it is impossible to extract.The atmospheric pressure from without helps to seal the stopper.In inserting the lamp in the socket it is simply pushed into the grasp of springs which hold the shoulders, and a twist of 90 © brings the terminals of the lamp into contact with the circuit terminals of the lamp.It has always been supposed that it was impossible to use iron wires embedded in glass on account of the greater coefficient of expansion of the iron wire.The manufacturers claim that2their experience proves that this objection is not valid, and that the glass stopper does not show any tendency to crack.Platinum in Canada.J.F.Donald writes of the occurrence of Platinum in Canada in the Engineering and Mining Journal.He says it has been detected in association with alluvial old in Eastern Canada, but no attempts ave been made to save it.In Ontario it has been discovered at Sudbury.A notable quantity of platinum has already been obtained from British Columbia.One firm in the United States claims to have purchased within the last year or two fully 2,000 oz.An increased output may be expected as the Tulameen Hydraulic and Improvement Co.have made preparations to carry on hydraulic mining on a large scale.The following statistics of the production of platinum are taken from the report of the Minister of Mines of British Columbia : Year Quantity, Value.1887.1,400 oz.85,600 1888.2.20.0 .1,500 oz.6,000 1889.1,000 oz.3,500 1890.Not stated 4,500 189L.\u2026.ot

the general trade was very bearish yesterday and put out some pretty good lines, some of whom were anxious to get it back again to-day.We think, however, there is still a large line of shorts, which will have to come in before the market has any material decline.Little or no change is noted in the foreign markets.Bradstreet\u2019s available supply shows a decrease of two million bushels.The deliveries, which amounted to about 500,000 bushels, all went into hands of parties who are supposed to control the greater portion of eash wheat.Very little interest was manifested in either corn or oats.The market opened strong in sympathy with wheat, but soon became very dull and lifeless.The cash trade in grain wus fairly good, wheat strong and again higher.There was quite a lively trade in the provision pit, and although the volume was not very large the activity was great ; the market being very narrow it requires but very little to make radical changes.The advance has evidentiy yery much decreased the consumptive demand, and packers find great difficulty in disposing of their product.Messrs.Lamontagne, Clarke & Co., have received the following from Messrs.Coun- selman & Day, Chicago, over their priv ate wire : Wheat traders seemed to have forgotten the anti-option bill this morning.The hard freeze traversing the winter wheat belt became a sufficient bull factor to open the market one cent higher, and sustain the advance at the close.The late tone is very firm.We expect to see wheat sell higher this month than last.A leading bull commission house paid for another million bushels cash wheat on delivery.They probably now hold three-fourths of the contract grades in Chicago.Corn was rather dull.Cash lots were a shade easier, and receivers sold futures whenever the market rallied in sympathy.with wheat.There was light trading on the whole.Provisions ruled lower under free selling.by insiders through brokers and commission houses.Sam.Dunham, who has been doing a daily scalping business of late in a line of 10,000.to 20,000 bbls.of pork, seemed to sell considerable more than he bought to-day.The general impression is that the strongest people have sold out.Chicago Notes.Mesars.Meredith and O\u2019Brien received the following from Messrs.Lamson Bros.& Co.over their private wire : Estimated receipts for to-morrow, wheat, 220 cars: corn, 319 cars;

MONTREAL DAILY HERALD, TAIK OF ABOLITION The Debate on Mr.Cooke\u2019s Motion Continued.MR.FITZPATRICK'S ABLE SPEECH.He Offers Strong Arguments In Favcr of Dispensing With the Services of the Upper House\u2014 Hon.Messrs.Nantel and Pelletier Defend the Existence of the Legislative Council\u2014-The Business Transactions at the Sittings.{Special to The Herald.) Quebec, Feb.1.\u2014It was 4.15 o'clock this afternoon when the Speaker took the chair, the delay being caused by a prolonged sitting of the executive.It was expected by many that Mr.Mercier would take his seat to-day, but a telegram from Montreal announced that the ex-Premier would not leave for Quebec before to-night or to-mor- row morning.Mr.Flynn presented the first report of the select committee on the protection of fish and game, of which he has been eleoted president.The committee will proceed to business without delay.Mr.Cartier asked that the bill to admis Mr.Jos.O.C.Mignault to practice as a land surveyor, after examination should be replaced upon the order paper to be considered in committee of the whole.This was granted.Mr.Auge introduced a bill to amend the Quebec license law, the object of which was to reconcile two contradictory sections, 926 and 936, in such a way as to take away from magistrates the discretionary power of cancelling licenses before the third offence.TWO IMPORTANT BILLS.Mr.Auge also introduced two other measure of great importance.The first, \u2018\u2018an act respecting hospitals and lying-in hospitals,\u201d is intended to protect the lives of children born out of wedlock.The bill provides that such children at their birth should become the wards of the state, and be cared for and educated in such a way as to make them useful members of society.Mr.Auge\u2019s other bill \u201can act to amend the law respecting public works,\u201d is the measure promised by him for the suppression of boodling by declaring that as a general principle the lowest tender must be ao- cepted for all public works and that any de- maud for extras shall be considered as a violation of contract.Other bills were introduced by Mr.Fitzpatrick to amend article 39 of the municipal code concerning united townships; by Mr.Gladu to amend article 2024 of R.S.Q,, providing that the sittings of school boards shall be public; by Mr.Tellier to detach the county Berthier from the judicial district of Richelieu and to annex it to the judicial district of Quebec.PROPOSED ABOLITION TREATY.The debate on Mr.Cooke\u2019s motion for the abolition of the Legislative Council was then continued by Hon, Mr.Nantel, who defended the existence of the Upper House in a carefully prepared speech.The Legislative Council, he said, was & necessary part of our Legislature, as a moderating power to correct whatever may be hasty in the decisions of the assembly.He must admit, however, that although the institution wus good in principle, there was considerable room for improvement in the mode of appointments of its members and in different other ways, Mr.Cooke, he said, had the whole English» press of the province at his back in this matter.This appeared to him a very ain.gular circumstance and an attempt upon the part of the English minority to carry out a so called reform which the great majority of the people of the province were opposed to, thus playing into the hands of the fanatical majority of the House of Commons, including the late Sir John Macdonald, whose efforts had always tended to legislative union, He proposed a sub-amendment to the effect that any reduction in the expenditure of the legislative council must come from the council itself.WHAT GOOD HAS IT DONE?Mr.Stephens asked what the Upper House represented, and on what occasion since its twenty-five years of existence it had shown its usefulness.He recalled the time when the Conncil had refused to stop the iniquitous law concerning the sale of the North Shore railway.This had beou repeated under the late regime.He denied Mr.Nantel's statement that the people of this country were monarchists ; they were democrats.If the Council represented the minorities, boards of trade, the labor organizations, eto., might be called representative bodies, but at present it really represented nothing, and he would vote on prisciple for ita abolition.r.L'anneton was speaking when House took recess.peaking when the THD DEBATE CONTINUED.After recess Mr.Panneton closed his remarks, and Mr.Fitzpatrick ina masterly speech arraigned the Legislative Council as being à dangerous and expensive vestige of the evil days of Caneda\u2019s history.He was not one of those who considered that second chambers were in all cases useless, nor did he intend to hurt the feelings of any individual member of the Upper House.If the system was bad it was no fault of his.Ile knew full well that all countries in Europe, with the exception of Bervia, Greece and Roumania, had second chambers, All of them were based either upon the aristocratic or elective prin- eiple.These chambers were useful when they represented the sober afterthought of the natiou, but in the case of the Legislative Council its members were the creatures, not even of & political party, but one single individual.No second chamber in the world w.s recruited in such a way, with one exception, which was the Senate of Canada.The Senate of Canada was at least the second chamber of a nation, but the Legislatine Council was not; it was nothing but an expensive reminiscence of the old Legislative Council of Quebec, whose tyranny and exactions had led to the rebellion of 1837, and to the aot of Union in 1842.Such an institution in this province was A COMPLETE ANOMALY.Those who favored its maintenance wers fond of comparing it to the House of Lords, and to the American Senate.What resemblance was there between our Council and the House of Lords?The House of Lords was not properly speaking a second Chamber ; it was the original chamber, the cradle of British liberty, where the people bad affirmed their right to assembly and cry yea or nay.In fact the House of Commons was the outgrowth of the Lords.Both were intimately connected with the history of English liberties.What resemblance could be found between our council and the Senate of the United States.The United States Senate was the representation of State autonomy as opposed to the Federal power embod- led in the House of Representatives.The latter represented the whole popnlation of the nation, the former each individual state without reference to population.Both were necessary barriers erected against mutual encronchments.What social or political principle did the Legislative Council represent At the time of Confederation its members were chosen with reference to the respective strength of both parties, but sitice then he defied any one to & Ye otto sfugle Instance in whieh a Liberal councillor had been appointed by a Conservative Premier.The body was so weak, 50 viciously constructed, that a clever designing man at the head of affairs would MOULD IT TO HIS WILL.This was so true that although at the time of his accession to power Mr.Mercier had only one partisan in the second chamber at the end of four years he commanded a majority there.Now, if Mr.Mercier, in- slead ot appointing eminent and enlightened men, had chosen to appoint mere instruments of his will and pleasure, where would the province have Been to-day ?What woul have become of us had they opposed the tax bill and refused to vote the supplies?Was it not dangerous that the Province should be at the mercy of an irresponsible body vested with such power?From a financial standpoint the reasons to be argued for the abolition were also very serious.It had been contended that the expenditure it entailed was after all ¢rifling.\\Vhat after all was a paltry $60,000 or £70,000 compared with the maintenance of a great principle ?The public had examined that argumentand condemned it Time and again the people had looked to the second chamber for redress and each time had been disappointed.This had been the case in 1870, in 1880 and 1890, and again in 1892, and after each disappointment the finger of public opinion had pointed out the necessity of its total reform or its dissolution.For his part, in considering the question from the second point of view he could not forget the unfortunate geographical position of this province, its rigorous climate and divided population.He could not forget that by reason of its different nationalities, the expenses of legislation, administration of justice, etc., were increased, that apart from the cities of Montreal, St.Hyacinthe, Sherbrooke and Quebec, the province was practically without manufactures and that large numbers of its population were yearly OBLIGED TO CROSS THE LINE to seek employment during the winter.Those of the members of the House who had taken the responsibility of imposing additional burdens upon the people it behooved to retrench all expenditure not absolutely necessary to the public service, How otherwise could they justify their position?Was it by throwing the responsibility upon Mercier ?Such a statement would be untrue.Mercier was responsible for much ; he must bear the weight of his own sing, but when he came to power the debt had reached thirty millions, and was rapidly increasing, as year by year one deficit succeeded another.It had been stated that those who favored the abolition of the legislative council favored legislative nnion, and even annexation.Nothing could be more unjust than this.For his part he had been born under the flag of Canada, and under that flag he hoped to die.\u201cBut you,\u201d he said, \u2018\u2018you, who see the blood of the nation flowing to a foreign land threugh the arteries of commerce built at such sacrifice by our people, you, who refuse to remedy the evil for the sake of keeping a vain and meaningless fiotion, you, I say, are the annexationists.\u201d RESENTED AN ATTACK.He expressed deep regret at the sweeping attack made upon the English-speaking people of this province by a Minister of the Crown in a carefully prepared speech.He quite understood that such a statement might be made in the heat of debate, but under the circumstances the thing appeared unpardonable.We, he said, are citizens of this country and have a right to express our views whatever may be those of the majority.We stand by the great principle laid down by Gladstone, that principle of autonomy by which our in.stitutiops are to be brought more closely under the control of the people.We favor the granting of more extended powers to municipalities in the hope that we thus having less to do, may do it better.It has been stated that a legislative council was necessary in Quebec in consequence of the flighty character of the people.Hae felt it his duty to protest against this, Nb people were more worthy of self-government than the French Canadian, angt was insulting to them to suppose thatthey needed a mother-in-law to whip them into line, or to beinterdicted and have a curator appointed to control and direct the legislative assembly.DEFENDED BY MR.PELLETIER.Mr.Pelletier undertook the difficult task of replying to Mr.Fitzpatrick and did so with his usual fluency and accent of conviction.The arguments he used were strikingly put, but were by no means new, having been gone over some days ago by Mr.Chicoyne.At the close of his remarks, Mr.Fitzpatrick rose to explain one point which appeared to him to have been neglected.It had been said and repeated that Mr.Mes.cier had refused to abolish the Legislative Council and that, in fact, he had favored its maintenance.He could, of course only speak far himself, but he had refused to run in the county of Quebec in 1890, until, receiving the asgurance that the abolition of the council was part of Mr.Mercier\u2019s program.The same thing took place when members wereasked tovote for the ten million loan.One of the principal reasons thay had prevented his accepting a seat in the late be Boucherville Government was the fact that the Premier was favorable to the maintenance of the Council.Br.Pelletier admitted the truth of this.Mr, Fitzpatriok continuing, further stated that he had been informed by Mr.Mercier that he had in his possession papers signed by members of the Legislative Council promising that they would vote for its abolition when called upon to do so.Mr.Pelletier denied this as far as he was concerned.Mr.Fitapatrick\u2014\u2018\u201cMr, Mercier will ba here to-morrow and we shall see.\u201d THE PREMIER'S POSITION.The debate was continued hy Messrs.'Faillor and Lussier favorable to the council, and by Messrs Hall, Dechene and Carbray against it.The question was put at 1 a.m., and Mr.Nantel\u20193 sub-amendment lost on the following division.Yeas\u2014

down, He then moved a sub-amendment, seconded by Mr.Chicoyne, that the House be not called to decide the question now, bus that it be submitted to a committee of both houses to study the question, and that meanwhile the expences of the council be limited to $20,000.After some disoussion the sub-amend- ment was withdrawn aud the question put upon Mr.Chicoynes\u2019 amendment for six months hoist.Mr.Auge voted for thesix months hoist, and Mr.Lussier did net vote.There was therefore a tie, 32 to 3:2, aud the amendment carried by the speaker's casting votes.But the Opposition did not hold themselves and Mr, Dechene raised a technical question concerning the legality of the vote just given.Thedecision, however, was against hfm, and the House adjourned at 2.15 a.m.Looks Serious.The existing state of doubt as to the legality of yesterday's elections is à serious matter.Fortunately, there is only one opinion regarding the question of supremacy in smoking tobaccos.Hirsch\u2019s Perique Mixture holds first place.Headquarters, Hirah's, opp.P.O, DESJARDINS.Continued from First Page.The scene outside the assessors\u2019 room, where the counting was taking place, was of the most enlivening character.The vast corridors were filled with admirers of the various candidates, and ou the arrival of the scrutineers they invariably cheered for their choice, coupled with the usual dissentient echoes proverbial at election times.The excitement grew intense as it became known that only one more poll was to be heard of for the mayoraity and that Hon.Senator Desjardins hold a slight lead.The suspense, which lasted nearly half an hour, was at last relieved by the announcement of the victory of the Hon.Senator by 151 votes.Like a flash a loud hurrah rang through the vast building lasting for several minutes.Attempts were made by several insignificant parties to address the excited yet orderly assemblage, but until little avail, owing to the mutual congratulations which were being freely expressed.All at once u loud shout was heard at the front entrance followed by a rushing mass of humanity bearing in their midst on the shoulders of four massive specimens of humanity the familiar form of the newly elected candidate to the Civic Chair, No sooner was he inside than loud cries of * \u2018speech speech\u201d could be heard and the vencrable Senator having secured a position on the stairs outside of the Water Department, delivered an eloquent address in French during which hie was loudly applauded.At its conclusion he made a few remarks in English, thanking his co-patriots for their support.and assuring [them that they could rest assured of receiving fair play at bis hands on every occasion.\u201cYou will not have occasion,\u201d said the victorious candidate, \u201cto read in the papers of every five cent piece I give to a poor woman.Rich and poor alike of all nationalities will receive that treatment which is their due at my hands while I have the proud honor of representing this grand city of Montreal as mayor.All Iask of you is to give me a chance of showing you what Ican do for you, and if you think I have not done my duty by you turn me out at the next election.(Loud cheers.)\u201d The speaker then bid his hearers good night, as he felt sure after the hard day\u2019s work they had gone through they must be tired.The vast assemblage then retired and the City Hall in a few moments or more resumed its usual peaceful character.NOTES AND SAYINGS IN TOWN.\u201cLook at that beautiful snow falling silently to earth\u201d said a lady to her husband as they entered the theatre last night.\u201cMy dear,\u201d he replied, \u2018Montreal has never known such a fall of snow to come from Heaven to earth as that which struck this city to-day.I know about eight or nine men, who were buried in it.\u201d \u201cWhat does this mean?\u2019 said a gentleman to the deputy returning officer, as he came from the voting compartment without having cast his ballot for mayor.*\u2018Here is Ald, Rolland\u2019s name on the ballot paper.Ishe a candidate?\u201d \u201cThat is the way it was handed to me.I don\u2019t know anything about it,\u201d replied the limb of the law, \u201cbut I do know that lots of people voted for Rolland.\u201d The newsdealers recognize the interest which will be taken in the returns when the morning papers are out.Few dealers failed to order a dozen more extra copies of The Herald to be sent to them this morning.Half an hour spent in a St.Ann's ward polling booth yesterday was quite sufficient to educate one in the mysterious art of voting by telegraphy.It is hard to explain why the telegraph should be named in this connection, because there is nothing whatever to suggest it.You just go to the deputy returning officer, (you know Willie Jones hasn\u2019t voted) and you say, \u2018\u201c Pm Willie Jones,\u201d Then, if you're not caught, you take your ballot paper and vate for the man whom you know, Willie Jones, even if he comes to vote afterwards, will not vote for.That's \u201c\u2018telegraphing.\u201d In additional to The Herald, several papers issued bulletins, and despite the cold many hundreds of people watched until the results were fairly well known before they went home to tea.L.Five French-Canadian alderman were defeated, and each of them in wards wheres the French vote is very big.\u201cWhat would 1t been like,\u201d said one of these gentlemen to a Herald representative, \u201cif we had bad a general election?I will tell you.Just about eight of the old thirty-six would have gone back to council.You seeif I'm not right when the general election does take lace.\u201d Ald.Clendinneng was seen during the evening at the indsor Hotel.He was quite happy and said: \u2018We have lost a few men, but it\u2019s all right.\u201d \u201cWill the election be legalized?\u201d \u201cOf course, it will.You may rest assured on that point.\u201d À large crowd assembled at the Natural History rooms to hear the returns from St.Antoine ward reads Many were the charges of \u2018\u201c\u2018telegraphing\u201d and several instances were cited.When it was seen that Mr.Costigan was without doubt elected, Mr.Walter Paul, the defeated candidate, made a speech,thanking those who had supported hin.Addresses were also given by Major Bond, Edgar Judge and others, in which the hope was expressed that there would be a general election, when Mr.Paul would be elected.A large crowd assembled in the Windsor Hotel to hear the returns read.Although the figures were received with a certain amount of cheering by the friends of the various candidates, there was very little enthusiasm, as compared with former elections.The general opinion appeared to be that the elections would have to be gone over again.Among those The Herald noticed in the Windsor crowd were Mesars.Duncan Mc- Intyre, jr, Charles Morris, Robert Linton, J.Wilson, the Rev.Dr.MacVicar, Chief Hughes, J.Cradock Simpson, A.W.Ogilvy, Yates, J.C.Drewry, Henry Joseph, Colonel Hutton, J.P.Dawes, Mr.Jerri- kon, Hector McKenzie, W.Wainwright, Walter Paul, A.A.Ayer, Dr.Gurd, .Granger, Hy.Stewart, F.E.Grafton, R.A.E.Greenshields, W.McLea Walbank, G.W.Stephens, jr., Mr.McEvers, Alex.Stevenson, D.A.Sexton, J.Findley, Marlowe and Ald Clendinneng.The supporters of Mr.Walter Paul are not going to rest quietly under defeat.One the most prominent said that in view of a general election, which they hoped for, requisitions in his favor would be circulated today.At many of the polling stations, Mr.Desjardins had no scrutineers.Many complaints were heard as to the mixed up condition of the voters\u2019 lists and the large number of names that were left off it.Several business men, occupying offices in the Temple building, voted at No.3 Polling station, on Victoria square, for the West ward, while others, occupying offices in the same building, had to go to Lemoine street.CITY CLERK DAVID SPEAKS, A Herald reporter held a brief interview with City Clerk David yesterday afternoon, to seek an explanation for his supposed defiance of the orders of the courts in going on with the elections after he had been served with a writ of injunction ordering him to stay all proceedings.Mr.David said : \u201cNow that the elections have been held, I will speak.Although my action hus been severely commented on, I was aotually not to blame in the matter.The law and the city charter orders that after I had notitied the public through the press of the election, I should have nothing further to do

boxes and to announce the result, as it was his duty to order the election to go on, and not mine.The public will see by this that I had nothing to say in the matter, and eon- sequently I have not disobeyed any order of the court.It was not within my power to do so.After the elections, however, and when the result has been made known by the revisors, it is my duty to declare through the press who have been elected.If I did this would be acting in detiance of the courts, and this I will not do.; \u201cThe elections cannot be confirmed until this announcement is made, and, as stated, I will not make it until the whole matter 18 finally settled.What the result of this will be I do not know, nor do I wish in my position as city clerk to give an opinion.THE PEOPLE'S CHOICE.A Few Words About the Gentlemen Who Have Been Elected.; Following will be found short biographies of the twelve aldermen just selected to represent the citizens in the Council chamber : ALD.PIERRE LECLERC.Ald.Pierre Leclerc, of 445 Rachel street, the new representative for St.Jean Baptiste ward, although elected yesterday by only a small majority, is none the less popular among the residents of the ward.For a young man who has never mixed very much in municipal affairs, his victory wus certainly a remarkable one, when it 1s remembered that he entered into a three- cornered contest with such veterans in elections as Ald.Grenier and Mr.Leandre Oume.Ald.Leclerc, although only 44 y irs of age, has already acquired very considerable wealsh and large experience in his business as a contractor.He is a man of education and a fluent speaker in both French and English.In politics he is a staunch Liberal, and is the late contractor for the Court House im- rovements.His election yesterday may be considered as his debut in public life, and as its announcement was received last even: ing with approval among all classes of residents in the ward he has a favorable start in municipal life.ALD.WILLIAM BUMBRAY.Mr.William Bumbray, of 68 Marlborough street, alderman elect for Hocheluga ward, who yesterday gained such a signal victory over pie Gauthier, is an old and respected resident of the ward.Ald.Bumbray, who is 44 years of age, is in every respect a self- made man, having risen from the ranks to the position he at present holdsas a wealth builder and contractor, and who is also a large employer of labor.Mr.Bumbray is by no means new to alder- manic life as hie has served both as a town councillor of Maisonneuve and of Hochelaga before its annexation to the city, and always with credit to himself and his constituents.He is a large property owner in the ward he now represents, and immensely popular with the working men, as yesterday\u2019s vote testifies.As Alderman Bum- bray is a shrewd business man, and has declared himself in favor of municipal reform, he will probably make his mark in the City Council and thus repay the confidence that Hochelaga bas reposed in him.ALD.R WILSON SMITH.Mr, R.Wilson Smith, Ald.elect in St.Lawrence ward, is one of the most successful of the financial men of the city.He is in his thirty-ninth vear, and has spent almost all his business life here.In the world of finance he stands high as an investment broker.Mr.Smith is proprietor of the Finance and Insurance Chronicle, a paper regarded as an authority in commercial matters, which has & wide circulation throughout the Deminion and the United States.He is a popular member of St.George\u2019s Snowshee Club.Asan investment broker he has been very successful and he deals largely in securities, mortgages and bonds, government and municipal.WEST WARD.Ald.James McBride, who was re-clected by acclamation in the West ward, is well known to nearly all Montreal.There has never been any charge of crookedness in connection with any vote given by him, and during the six years that he has sat in the Council chamber he has always fought and voted for the best interest of the city in general, irrespective of class, creed or nationality.Mr.McBride 1s a member of the firm of Vipond & McBride, fruit dealers, and as an alderman has been sans peur et sans reproche, aud well deserved the honor of election by acclamation.CENTRE WARD.Ald.William Farrell, the well-known wine and spirit merchant, of 420 St.Paul street, who is re-elected in the centre ward, may be considered a veteran in the muniei- pal life of Montreal.For an uninterrupted period of twelve years he has filled the position to which he was yesterday re-elected, with credit to himself and those whom he represents.He has been 38 years in business in the city and the practical knowledge he has gained has been always used in de interests of his constituents.During bis long term of office he has ably filled a position on the Finance Committee, where his opinion has great weight.He has had the honor of being twice returned to the council by acclamation, and has time and again refused the chairmanship of committees shrewdly judging that his vote was of more consequence than the sometimes empty honor of the title of chairman.EAST WARD.Mr.G.Marsolais, the well-known dry goods merchant of 1469 Notre Dame street efeated Ald.Dufresne in the East ward, He is a gentleman of large business experience and has extensive property, not only in the ward he now represents, but also in several other wards of the city.He is a prominent member of the Canadian Club and has always taken a deep ineerest in civic affairs, but this is the first time that he has sought after municipal honors.ST.GABRIEL WARD, Ald.D.Tansey, of 93 Centre street, Point St.Charles, is one of the most familiar faces ia the Council.Commencing his life as a merchant, he has risen from the humbler ranks and by honest industry is now a man of independent means and has retired from business for many years.He was one of machinists engaged by the contractor in the construction of the Victoria bridge and at the completion of that structure in 1860 he entered the employ of the Grand Trunk Railway company and worked at his trade in the shops until 1860, when he retired.Some successful ventures in real estate made him a large property owner, particularly in \u2018St.Ann\u2019s and St.Gabriel's wards.He represented St.Ann\u2019s ward in Council for six years and was the first alderman ever elected South of the Lachine canal.Taking a lively interest in the annexation of St, Gabriel to the city, when that was zc.complished, he was offered the nomination in the new ward, and was elected in 1887 Three years later he was re-elected by a majority of 700, and yesterday he wag again chosen.He is chairman of the Parks and Ferries committee, and has always been a hard worker for the ward he representa; hig latest success in that line was securing the new park for St.Gabriel, on which the new fire station stands, and he has just had the Street Car service extended throughout the ward.ST.ANTOINE WARD.Mr.Richard Costigan, merchant of, 232 St.Antoine strect, the successful candidate in St.Antoine ward, is a type of the Jpunger business generation of Montreal e was born in this city in 1860, consequently is in his thirty-third year.After receiving a thorough education at the Mont real High School, he at a very early period entered into business with his futher now deceased, and the training and experience thus gained make him peculiarly ads ted for taking aun-active part in municipal affairs in which for years he has taken a deep outside interest.Asa very considerable

of a Negro Criminal in Texas.idate in St.James for 25 years Paris, Tex., Feb, 1.\u2014Hundreds of people came to this city to await the arrival of the guerd havingin custody Henry Smith, therape fiend, and at noon to-day when the Texas and Pacific train from the north arrived it is estimated that the crowd surrounding the depot numbered nearly 20,000 people.When the train arrived a rush was made for the coach in in which the negro was confined.The deputy sheriffs and the guard of Paris citizens, who accompanied the negro from Tex- arkana, drew their revolvers and attempted to prevent the mob from taking their prisoner.The guard was quickly overpowered and a rope was thrown about Smith's neck.He was dragged from the train, hurried to the scene of his crime.All along the route he was pelted with missiles struck by fists and otherwise maltreated.He was tied to a stake and after being subjected to every conceivable torture, he wus cremated amid the howling of the mob.All citizens of the town and surrounding country irrespective of class or color took part in the lynching.Worda to describe the awful torture inflicted upon Smith cannot be found.The negro for a long time after starting on the journey to Paris did not real ize his plight.At last when he was told he must die the most awful death by slow torture that human mind could conceive, he begged for protection.He was willing to be shot, and wanted Marshal Shanklin to do it.But he was told he would be burned to death.His agony was awful.He pleaded and writhed in bodily and mental pain in anticipation.Scarcely had the train reached Paris when his torture commenced.His clothes were torn off piecemeal and scattered in the crowd, people catching the shreds and putting them away as momen- toes, The child\u2019s father, her brother and two uncles then gathered about the negro, as he lay fastened to the torture platform and thrust hot irons into his quivering flesh.Every groan from the fiend, every contortion of his body, was cheered by the thickly packed crowd of 10,000 people.The muss of beings was six hundred yards in diameter, the scaffold being the centre.Before burning the feet and legs, the hot irons, plenty of fresh ones being at hand, were rolled up and down Smith's stomach, back and arm, Then the eyes were burned out und irons were thrust down his throat.The men of the Vance family baving wreaked vengeance, the crowd piled all kinds of combustible stuff around the scaffold, poured oil on it and set it on fire The negro rolled and wriggled and tossed out of the mass only to be pushed back by the people nearest him.He tossed out again and was roped and pulle back.Hundreds of people turned Pa but the vast crowd still looked calmly on People were there trom every part of this section.News of the burning was sent to every town and anvils boomed forth the announcement.Pers TO LET.O LET\u2014VERY COMFOR i SF T contained houses in the es on \u201cELE small lower and u I
