Paris.A London Correspondent Suggests That France Is Cooling Down- The Slamese Coast Biockade Is Delayed Till Saturdav\u2014Chinese Officials Interesting Themselves Paris, July 26.\u2014It is stated that an effective blockade of the Siamese coast by the French fleet will only begin on Saturday or Sunday next.Until then all the powers will not have received notice of France's intention to establish a blockade.The Chinese charge d'affaires had an interview to-day with the chief officials at the Foreign office in regard to Siam.The-Chinese charge d'affaires, it is stated, informed M.Deville that Siam had no territory east of the Mekong as north as latitude 23 degrees, which parallel is claimed by the French as the northern limit of their influence.He regarded it unlikely that the black flags would join the Siamese in the event of hostilities with France, but he thomght that if they saw France and Siam embroiled the black flags might resume the offensive in Tonquin.LORD DUFFERIN AT PARIS, London, July 26.\u2014A Paris despatch to The Times says : *\u2018Lord Dufferin had an audience with M.Develle, this morning.A cabinet council was held at six o\u2019clock this evening, but the greatest secrecy was maintained as to what took place at the meeting.Another cabinet council will be held on Saturday next.The Temps gives a detailed account of how the Frenen gunboats forced a passage up the Menam River.The gunboats entered the channel about six o'clock in the evening and immediately both forts and the Siamese gunboats opened fire on the French wurships.The French gunboats crossed the bar notwithstanding the explosion of a submarine torpedo directly shead of the fleet.The Inconstante rammed and sunk a Siamese gud-boat.About nine o'clock the forts of Paknam opened fire at a range of a quarter of a mile.The French gun-boats all this time were making 10 knots an hour against the stream.At 9.30 o'clock the French fleet anchored in front of the French legation at Bangkok.The cannonade had little effect awing to the darkness, SIAM ANXIOUS FOR PEACE.Bangkok, July 26.\u2014M.Pavie, the French minister prior to his departure, had a final interview with Devavongse, the Siamese foreign minister, who said that his Government was astonished that France considered their reply to the French ultimatum a refusal to comply with its terms.It was impossible, he said, to accept definitely an indefinite proposal.France had never defined her rights in Annam and Cambodia; but the King earnestly desires peace and a speedy settlement of the whole case, and had declared his readiness to abandon in Annam and Cambodia all the posts that had been attacked, as well as the territory near them, including Stungstreng and Khong, although these places v.ere admitted to be Siamese.FRENCH CAPTURE A FORT.Saigon, July 26.\u2014Captain Villers, who is in command of the French forces at Khong, reports that the capture of Fort Donson by the French produced an excellent impression.The governor of the Island of Khong was killed during the attack, and his death hastened the retreat of the Siamese.The French flag had been hoisted on the island of Rongsam- lem, which will be made the basis of future operations.\u2018The French (Government has also decided to take possession of other islands on the gulf of Siam.Hong Kong, July 20.\u2014Admiral

amenable in its negotiations with England over the Giamese dispute.WILL NOT BOMBARD BANGKOK, London, July 26.\u2014The Paris correspondent of The Standard says : It is stated semi-officially that the Siamese blockade will not be confined to the Estuary of the Menam, but that the rivers east and west also will be blockaded.Rear-Admiral Humann will occupy an island 18 miles from Menam.It is reported also that there is no intention to bombard Bangkok, although the batteries on both sides of the river at Panakam and on the island in mid stream will be destroyed.The royal palace, where 12,000 soldiers are to be massed, will be attacked and occupied.MUST DEAL WITH ENGLAND.Paris, July 26.\u2014The Journal des Debats after noting that the region south of the 23rd parallel, to which France hopes to extend her territory in Siam, includes the province ceded by Great Britain to Sigm after the Burmese war, makes these comments : This, we believe, is what the Marquis of Dufferin was charged to represent to M.Develle, and what China also will direct attention to.It is useless, therefore, to shut our eyes to the fact that, beyond certain points, we no longer have to deal with Siam, but perhaps with England, and certainly with China.= Xa KILLED IN SING PU.The Fate of Two Swedish Missionaries by Chinese Fanatics.Vancouver, July 26.\u2014The steamship Empress of India has arrived with news of the murder of two Swedish missionaries by Chinese fanatics at Sing Pu.Reverends Wikholm and Johnson, the missionaries, arrived in Sing Pu last April and were the only missionaries there.Sing

composed of loafers, tradesmen and scholars, who clamored for their blood.Stones were thrown at the house and the windows battered in until the missionaries could no longer remain in doors.They attempted tojescape over the roofs of houses, but were followed by the mob.Finally they could go no further and Sropped into the street into the hands of tha mob.Their sufferings were short.Wilkholm\u2019s skull was smashed with an axe Mr.Johnson was speedily beaten out of semblance to human shape by bamboo and iron bars, To.1 ANXIOUS FOR DEATH.Murderer Taylor is in Good Humor

last night for Bay City, Mich.They are sent by the Government to mcasure a boom of logs at that city, got out in the Indian Reserve on Ver- millien river.It seems these logs were taken out by a man

Monev That Was Not His\u2014He Will Be Brought Back for Trial.In these hard, cold, cruel days of the nineteenth century (as the fin-de-siecle pessimists call them) when everything is popularly supposed to be sacrificed to the worship of the golden calf, and when such petty things as human loves and passions are ignored with a civil sneer, it Seems curious that every.now and then there arise cases which show that the power of love, even when misdirected, is as strong to-day as it was in those bygone times when Watteau painted apd Beranger sang.A few mouths ago Joseph Edward Hilton, an employe in the Montreal office of the Bell Telephone Co., and a married man, blessed with an affectionate wife and five children, was promoted to be local manager at Waterloo.Later he was appointed inspector and manager BLOUNT'S REPORT CONCLUDED.it Is Said to be a Straight Treaty of Annexation.San Francisco, July 26.-The steamer Oceanic brings news from Honolulu of the appointment of William 1.Alexander, the leading historian of Hawaii, as Special Con.missioner to Washington to assist in the negotiations for annexation.He will icave Honolulu the 27th inst.Minister Blount has concluded his report on Hawaiian affairs, and it was stated he would probably forward it to Washington by the steamer Australia, which was to sail July 19.The latest reports concerning the document are that it is a straight treaty of annexation without conditions and without reference to the labor question, finances or the present system of land holdings.Paul Neuman.lately the Queen's agent | at Washington, has issued a manifesto in the form of an open letter to President Dole attributing the hard times and languishing trade to the present political uncertainty, and demanding that the will of the people be

disorderly, noisy and generally undignified scene was never presented in that hotel THE ELOPING COUPLE, for the Eastern Townships under the orders of Mr.L.2B.Macfarlane, manager of the eastern division, Hilton was a zealous and efficient employe, and everything went well until during the course of his official visits to the out-lying agencies, he met a pretty blonde, Miss Charlotte Bradshaw, who was in charge of the Cowansville station.Miss Bradshaw was just twenty- one, pretty and sympathetic.Hilton was not past the fire of youth, had a heavy i moustache and a not unattractive appeat- \"ance.They met more than once, and Miss | Bradshaw felt she had found her affinity; { while Hilton forgot the existence of his wife and five children.They agreed to fly to- : gether, and live in an anticipated Elysium of mutual love far from the cold prosaic facts of the Eastern Townships.But for {this trip to Elysium money was neces- jsary.In these commercial days :love is not a negotiable security, | and when poverty comes in at the door love , flies out at the window.So Hilton pro- | ceeded tocollect all the moneys he could lay : his hands on, no matter to whom they belonged.He soon gathered in 3350 of the company\u201ds money, and then hired a horse and buggy from a confiding livery stable- keeper in Cowansville.Into this buggy, converted for the nonce into Cupid\u2019s chariot, he packed his valise and Miss Charlotte Bradshaw, with a comfortable-sized trunk.He then proceeded to have his photograph taken with hers, a copy of which is heve reproduced, and having left this important piece of testimony behind him, he drove across the frontier into Vermont, In the meantime his imprudent conduct hadspread the alarm.Mr.L.B.Macfarlane, Eastern manager of the Bell Telephone Co., was notified, and he placed the matter in the hands of Detective Silas H.Carpenter.Detective Carpenter soon lucated the erring couple in Burlington, Vt., where Hilton had left the horse and buggy, and where he had purchased tickets for Denver, Col., via Chicago and Kansas City.He ascertained that the two left Burlington by the 6.35 train last Friday, and at once telegraphed the Pinkerton agency at Denver to that effect.Karly yesterday morning he received an answer from John C.Fraser, superintendent of the Pinkerton National Detective Agency at Denver, to the effect that the erring couple had been discovered and located, and asking for instructions.i In reply Detective Carpenter wired to have them arrested at once, and, having secured the necessary papers for extradition, he left on the 10.35 train last night for Denver to bring them back to this city on a charge of larceny.Killed Stopping a Runaway.Stratford, Ont., July 26.-\u2014Wm.Baltzer, of Wellesty township, while endeavoring to stop a runaway team, attached to a self- binder, yesterday, was thrown in front of the machine and so terribly mangled by the cutting bar that he died in about fifteen minutes after the accident.The Charge Unwarranted.The seizure in the warchouse of two St.Paul street furriers of a lot of 114 otter and mink skins, on the charge that they had been caught during the close season, has been pronounced unwarranted.Judge Dugas yesterday dismissed the action, on on the ground that they were American furs, bought in New York, and that consequently our statute did not apply.Quarantine Against Naples.Constantinople, July 26.\u2014A five days\u2019 quarantine has been declared here against all vessels arriving from Naples.T Men shrieked, called each other vile names issued challenges to one another to come outside, and with clenched fists declared that thév would not be bulldozed.The noise sounded through the whole hotel.Two hundred men were engaged in or were spectators of the row at one time, and the uproar was \u2018such that people on the streets were drawn to the hotel in crowds.At last the meeting broke up in disorder without having transacted the business for which it was called.Even then the noisy friends of free silver continued to struggle about the table in the centre of the parlor where the meeting had been held, until Proprietor Vilas turned out the lights and ordered the party to leave the room and the officer of the house.Comnegan, with one or two porters, appeared on the scene to prevent riot.The proceedings lasted an hour and a half.Some of the prominent free-silver men of the country, among them Senators Stewart and Jones of Nevada, had been expected to attend and speak.Both men were in the city, but they pleaded that it would be improper for them to appear to be doing missionary work in New York, and they were not there\u2014fortunately, for it was no place for men of their years.After a series of resolutions on the subject had been read, the meeting acted in such a boisterous manner that the hotel proprietor ordered the lights turned out and the hotel officers were called in to prevent an open fight.The object of the meeting was not accomplished.THOUSANDS IN SMOKE.McDougall Bros.\u201d Mills Destroyed by Fire This Morning.What was very nearly a serious confag- ration took place this morning at about half-past two, at the works of Mr.John McDougall, millwright and machinist, 191 Seigneurs street, St.Gabriel locks, How the fire started is a mystery, but when the alarm rang from box 57 it was already well under way.Owing to the way in which the buildings dovetail into the Glenora mills it looked at first as if the whole block was doomed to destruction, but thanks to the exertions of the firemen the flames were confined to the building in which they originally started, and the huge fabric of Ogilvie's was not even charred.At one time it looked as if some of the firemen must be badly injured.They were grouped together on the ladders leading to the roof of the pattern shop, when the flames suddenly burst out from the windows below them, enveloping them in a sheet of tire.Two streams were instantly turnedfupon them, and they fortunately escaped with only a slight scorching.All that the firemen could do was to confine the flames to the building in which it occurred, and they were lucky to do that, considering the unfavorable nature of the surroundings.The works themselves were completely gutted, and the adjoining buildings, occupied by Smith\u2019s Thrashing Machine Agency, were considerably damaged by water.The Belœil Amateur Athletic and Dramatic club will give a representation of the opera \u201cChimes of Normandy\u201d at the Academy of Music here on the 1st

; Bad Weather Interfered With the 200th Anniversary Celebration.Great Crowds Attended From Many Points\u2014An Appropriate Sermon by Rev.Cure Lepailleur, of Maisonneuve-Speech at Night by Prominent Montrealers.Bright and early yesterday morning the residents of Varennes were about in anticipation of the glorious celebration which wus to take place during the day.; Expressions of regret were heard on all .sides on account of the inclemency of the weather.All morning the poured down on the devoted heads of , the parishioners who were bent on cele- rain ennes and honoring St.Anne, their patron saint.The streets and residences had been gaily decorated on the previous day and great preparation had been made for an enthusiastic demonstration, and in spite of the bad weather, which compelled the ommis- sion of many of the features arranged for, the people were out en masse throughout the duy and evening.The parade did not take place, however, for while the sun came out shortly after midday, showers fell at intervals throughout the day.It was originally intended that the speeches should be made on the college grounds, where a stand had been erected, but it was afterwards decided to hold forth on the steps of the Hotel Brodeur.The Richelieu and Ontario Navigation Company's steamer Cultivateur, which arrived from Montreal early in the morning, brought many visitors, as did also the Terre- bonne, which reached Varennes in the afternoon.Several other steamers from Soreland neighboring points arrived at different times throughout the day and evening and helped to swell the number of visitors.The streets were thronged whenever the weather would permit, and Varennes may be said to have celebrated her anniversary day with eclat and ostentation in spite of the weather.The parish church was thronged in the morning when High Mass was celebrated, Rev.Cures Berard, Choquette and Picotte officiating.Father Theberge made the opening remarks.The serinon was delivered by Rev.Cure Lepailleur, of Maisonneuve, on the text of gratia plena.He said this text was the smile of Heaven, and showed the reconciliation between (God and man.Ste.Aune, the patron saint, was full of grace, for the glory of the child was reflected on the paient.Ste.Anne was born near Mount Carmel, and the hermits had a vision | concerning her.At her birth, four golden letters were placed on her breast, and this was deemed miraculous.Ste.Anne was full of grace, loving and serving God, helping her neighbors and practising virtue.Many of the women of Varennes, $oth of the past and present, had emulated her noble example, and he hoped they would ever continue to do so.The remainder of the morning and afternoon was spent as best pleased the tastes of t the various residents and visitors, nothing of an official character being on the program, In the evening a Roman benediction service was celebrated in the church, Kev.Cure Thebergl officiating, assisted by the Rev.Cures Peltier and Carroite.The ceremony was unusually impressive.The choir was under the charge of Charles Lus- sier, who presided at the organ, and his brother, Joseph Lussier.The soloists were Mr.Labelle, of the Jesuits\u2019 choir ; Mr.Langlois, of Varennes; Charles Lucelle and N.Dusseault.THE SPEECHES.Shortly after eight o'clock Dr.Geof- frion ascended the steps of the hotel and made a speech, in which he spoke of the glorious past of Varennes, aud its hopes for the future.Mr.A.dé Martigny, manager for the Jacques Cartier Bank, was then called upon to speak.He had not intended to address them, but he could not refuse the invitation extended him.He was happy to be a son of one of the pioneers of the parish of St.Anne de Varennes.Those who were fai- iliar with history knew of the deeds of the great men who had come from their present home.He was proud to havo helped in the development of the splendid college.Many of these young men had been fitted by its teachings to fill a place of usefulness in the world, One of these young men was at present cashier of the bank of which he was manager.The demonstration was not only one of patriotism, but in honor of their religion as well; and St.Anne, one of the greatest saints in the history of the church.He spoke of the great men in politics, who had come from Varennes, and hoped that these names would always be honored, and that the present generation would add additional lustre to the magmificent history of the parish, Mr.J.L.Archambault, Q.C., Crown, prosecutor of Montreal, also claimed the honor of being a son of Varennes, which place, he said, wasoneof thedaughtersof the church of Canada.He wished the illustrious dead buried in the neighboring churchyard could rise from their tombs and tell what had heen done by them for Canada, and he referred to Madamoiselle de Vercheres as the Joan of Arc of Canada.In the history of the past they should find courage for the future.While true French-Canadians and Catholics, they were withal loyal subjects of the Queen.He impressed upon the youth of to-day, the necessity of carrving out the old ideas.A people should not forget its history, rnd he was sure the people of Varennes would never forget theirs.Mr.Albert Lussier, M.P.P., Mr, Ama- die Geoffrion and Mr.Le Durantaye of La Presse addressed the assemblage.This ended the speech-making.A torchlight procession was held and a pyrotechnic display given under the charge of Jobin of Montreal.Among the prominent people present were: Rev.Vicar Barsalou, Rev.M.Brui- neau, Boucherville; Rev.J.Morin, St.John; Rev.M.Bourbonnais.Rev.M.Lambert, Rev.M.Courtois, Rev.M.Perreault, Ber- thier; Rev.Mr.Dufour, Sacre Cœur; J.X.Perreault, Mr.Massue and many others.It was after eleven o'clock when the Cultivateur left Varennes for the city, carryin a merry party who thoroughly enjoyed themselves on the homeward trip.Dancing was indulged in, Hardy\u2019s band furnishing the music, and wee small hours of the morning were reached before the landing was made.This was due largely to thefaet that the ship cnannel was chosen from Varennes to Boucherville, the Boucherville channel being considered dangerous, as it was unlighted.SOMETHING ABOUT VARENNES, Varennes in its name perpetuates the memory of its founder.Gauthier de Varennes was an officer in the distinguished Carignan-Solieres regiment, and upon its disbandment about two hundred years ago he received the concession of a seignory, nine miles square, from Intendant Talon, covering the site of the present parish.Other officers of this regiment were also granted seignories, which still bear their names.As Hunter picturesquely puts it,these titles of the old fighters of colonial {days are 4 FETE AT VARENNES.brating the 200th anniversary of Var- \u201cpicketed around the ancient rendez-vous | at the confluence of the Richelieu and St.i Lawrence, as though still guarding the Iroquois River gate, Starting with Varennes there are Berthier, Lavaltree, Dou- chèr, Contrecu-ur and Vercheres, the latter ; town being fresh in every French memory because of Mde.Verchere's gallant exploits.August 26th, 1893, was the date of actual settlement.In the carly days it was known mostly, because of its admirable anchorage facilitica, about one mile below the present town at Cape St.Michael, aud sailing steamers always stepped there.About the time of the war of 1812, Bou- chette spoke of Varennes as \u201ca litile fief of good fertile land, nearly all in cultivation, and pleasantly watered by two or three ; little streams.\u201d Me mentioned the : church, which has three conspicuous spires ! visible from Montreal, and added that the \u201cwhole seignory was then the property ot , Paul Lussett.It may be mentioned that i Messrs.Massue and Lussre are the names | of the present owners oi the seignory.The statement seems to have grown slowly, be- | cause of early difficulties with i the Iroquois.Early iu 1700 there were not \"over 100 people in Varennes.Fifty years afterwards, when peace was assured, the population quickly incrensed to 500.Tn 1858 the population was 1,600.In 1564, including the parish, there were nearly 3,000 souls.In 1891 there were 3,375, or thereabouts.Among the distinguished men whom Varennes hus given te Canada, may be included: Senator Robitaille, ex-Licutenant-Governor of Quebec; Mr.Massue, ex-M.P.; Hon.Felix

the present time, member of the Dominion Parliament; Rev.Father Jodoin, Superior of the Oblats: Father Geoftrion, of Cote des Neiges, and Rev, Mr.Theberge.The venerable foundress of the Grey Nuns, Miss de la Jemmerais (Sister d\u2019You- ville) was born here; Sister Beauchamp, superioress of the Hotel Dieu, and also two Sisters Brodeur, who were superioresses of convents in Indiana and New Orleans, came from this part of the country.Sir George Cartier for many years represented Var- rennes in Parliament.Mr.EK.I, Lussier, of Varennes, at present represents Ver- cheres in the Quebec Legislature, His father, Paul Lussier, was long a member of the old Parliament of Canada.NOTES, A force of 20 special constables were on hand to preserve order, but their services were not culled for in a single instance.In deferenceto the demands of the clergy, no intoxicating liguors were sold during the day.Lightning destroyed two barhs and their contents carly yesterday morning.No insurance.Hardy's Band was to have arrived in the morning, but did not come until evening on account of the weather.JEALOUS OF LILLIAN RUSSELL.The Wives of Club Members Object to Her Presence in Washington Park.Chicago, July 26.\u2014-Miss Lillian Russell has become so popular among the club men of Chicago as to arouse a very ludicrous opposition by the wives of the club men to her appearance at public places, where it was possible for the fair singer to receive the attentions of the men During the curly days of the Washingten Park race meeting, which closed last Saturday, Miss Russell was a frequent attendant at the races.She was there Derby Day and many times subsequently.Upon all these occasions she was u guest of some member of the club and was given the run of the clubhouse in common with the wives, daughters and sweethearts of the club members.Thomas Williams, who owus the crack sprinter Racine, was her greatest admiver, and most frequently her host, but when Miss Russell appeared on the piazza of the clubhouse all the men there sought an introduction, and the amount of attention she reccived would have satisfied Cleopatra.The other women, handsome as some of them were, felt slighted by the honor paid the Queen of Song, and took measures to put a stop to it.They first appealed to their husbands or lovers to let the beautiful Lillian alone.When this appeal was unavailing, they went to the officers of the club and made objections to the preseuce among them of an opera singer.They were so vociferous and bitter in their denunciations of her that, in self-defense and to stop the unseemly row, President Henry T.Wheeler, of the Washington Park Club, issued an order to the servants of the club to refuse Miss Russell admission to the club precincts.This order was unknown to the singer until one day when she appeared there with a party on a coach.The men at the gates, pursuant to President Wheeler's instructions, refused to let Miss Russell's coach within the gates, and she was forced to return to the city, Mr.Davis, manager of the Columbia Theatre, in which Mlss Russell is singing, went to Mr.Wheeler and asked him what was meant hy such treatment.Mr.Wheeler told the story of the onslaught made on him by the belles and dames at the clubhouse, and declared that he had done the only thing he could under the circumstances, but he added that it was only a proof of the charm which Miss Russell unconsciously exerted, It has been rumored that Miss Russell was so hurt by the slight put upon her by the club that she closed the theatre last week, This is not so, although Miss Russell was deeply chagrined, as any woman would have been, by the course adopted by the clu members\u2019 wives and by President Wheeler.Last week Miss Russell was seriously ill with diptheretic sore throat, and it was impossible for her to sing, The theatre was closed from Tuesday night until Monday of this week, when she reappeared.She showed to-night some traces of her recent illness in lier voice, but locked as beautiful and acted aswell as she has done for several years.At the close of her engagement here she and Mr.T.Henry French, her manager, will part company.The season will end September 3.At that time it is proposed to organize a new company, including Miss Russell and Jesse Bartlett Davis, to be called the Chicago Opera company, with Chicago backing and under Chic go management.It was stated ut the theatre to-night that Mr.French withdrew from the management of Miss Russell because his time was fully occupied with the management of his three Eastern theatres.Both Miss Russell and the officers of the Washington Park Club refused to discuss the affair ct the club house.The queer part of it is that the club has on its roster the names of many men whose careers have been as remarkable as Miss Russell's from the theatrical standpoint.With such men among its members, it is ludicrous for the club to put its standard of morality tuo high, not taking into consideration the fact that all the expenses of the club are paid by the receipts from its gambling privileges.Death of Dr.Snelling.Toronto, Ont., July

Troubie Breaks Out\u2014Mine Owners Say the Back-bone of the Strike is Broken-Fear the Use of Dynamite.Topeka, July 26.\u2014 The situation at tho coal mines in southeastern Kansas is hourly becoming more serious.The United States Marshal and his deputies have served notices on all the strikers not fo trespass on mining property, but tho leaders uvgo their followers to ignore the notices and look after men who are trying to work in the mines.Populist sheriffs have begged Governcr Lewel- ling to send arms, but he knows some of the strikers have been made deputy sheriffs, and refuses to arm them.Today Le turned the command of the troeps over to Lieutenant Governor Daniels, who is also major general of militia, and the latter issued orders for the men to get ready for service.Just before daybreak this morning » train of six cars was backed into the inclosure around shaft No.8 of the K:ith and Perry mine, near Scammon, and 347 negroes from Alabama and Colorado were uuloaded inside the stockade.These men had all been furnished with fine rifies, and spent the forenoon drilling and learning how to defend themselves.At 1 o'clock they were all sent inte the mine, without the strikers knowing «f the movement.Other negroes were sent to the wines at Litchfield.Many miners from Colorado are drifting into the strike district, all being determined to get work if possible, and hold their jobs when once secured.President R.H.Keith, of the Central Coal and Coke Company, said to-day : \u201cWe are masters of the situation, and the strike of the miners in Southeastern Missouri is practically ended.\u201d The officials of the Kansas and Texas Coal Company are equally positive that the backbone of the strike is broken, and are confident the mines will be started up without bloodshed or trouble of any kind:.The strikers, however, are becoming mere desperate us they see their old places filled by men who propose to both work and fight, and the prospect of being thrown out of a job.Word comes to-night that many nore men are on the road to take their places, and it is belicved the present quiet is but the calm before the storm, 1 which dynamite and bombs will play an important part.ARRESTED IN TORONTO.A Party of Four Swiss Visitors Taken on Chicago Orders.Toronto, July 26.-Quite a sensational arrest was made this morning at the Pahner House, by Detectives Sieming, Mecetirath and Black.It appears that Sergt.Red.burn received a despatch from the superintendent of police at Chicago, asking for the arrest of H.B.Newitz, on « charge of larceny and embezzlement.The sergeant was unwilling to arrest all four persons belonging to Mr.Newitz party, staying at the Paliner House, until he received further intelligence, John Bonfield, chief of Secret Service, Worlds Coluabian Exposition, at once replied requesting the avvesi of the whole party.In Mr.Newitz's possession was 224.380 in Turkish.1\"rench and Belgian currency, 84,000 in silver dollkus and 23 gold and silver watches, He is a native of Switzerland, has lived in France.England and Belgium, speaks French fluently and has attended sixteen of the most celebrated expositions throughout the world.He is of middle size, of good appearance, yeliow- ish brown eyes and hair slightly tinged with grey.The next to appear was George Newitz, aged 17 years, with very plain features, dark eyes, smooth face, who, when arrested, appeared not to realize the gravity of his position.The third to appear was Albert Newitz, aged 14 years, who contrasted with his brother by\" stepping up quick and bright, his round, full face weaving à genial smile as the detectives took him into custody.He was full of talk, ani at once began to carry on a conversation with his father in English, The detectives waited a tew moments, when Josephine Wagner, the governess, aged 35, allowed herself to be arrested.She is rather thin ta build, of sallow complexion, very bright brown eves and dark hair.She dresses plainly and is unable to speak a word of English, She'had a number of watches in her tranks and concealed about her person, all of them being of Swiss manufacture.When the prisoners arrived at the Police Court they all four protested their inuocence, and Mr.Newitz declared that he would not return to Chicago without extradition proceedings.\u2018They are all my property,\u201d he said, when his money, security and watches were taken possession of.\u2018\u2018I never stole them.\u201d H.B.Newitz ha! charge of the arrange ments of the Swiss portier.of the Wold Fair.All partics in the affair take the

ME.DAVIS ANSWERS Text of His Letter to the Investigation Committee, He Regrets that the Two Aldermen Found it Necessary to Make the Charge and Takes Nothing Back that He has Said-\u2014His Side of the Story.The special investigation committee appointed in! connection with the charge brought?against Mr.Davis, superintendent of the Water department, met yesterday morning, when there were present Mayor Desjardins (in the chair), and Ald.\u201d Rainville and Stearns.A statement submitted by Mr.Davis, accompanied by a sworn affidavit, was read.The statement was: GENTLEMEN,\u20141 have read the charges made to the Council against myself by Aldermen Leclerc and Dagenais.In answer, I have to say that 1 regret exceedingly that when the two gentlemen herein named found it necessary to formulate a charge against me, to place before His Worship the Mayor and the Council of the City of Montreal, and, in fact, before the whole world, as the Council meetings are open to the press, and hence such reports when spread in the newspapers, without the option of either explanation or defence at the time, must be always more or less a source of serious damage to the person 80 charged, it would have saved perhaps much annoyance and unnecessary trouble, if these charges had been made accompanied with the actual facts coupled with the whole circumstances of the case, which I am certain that the present sub-committee will judge very ditfer- ently when they are in possession of said circumstances and correct statement of the whole affair.On the 31st of May, at a meeting of the committee of the Water Department, 36 tenders for stores for supplies of the Water Department were opened, after which the chairman of the committee stated that it was impossible to go into the matter of examining these tenders until they had been classitied, the work being too voluminous for the aldermen to do, and stated that it should be handed over to the superintendent of the department, in the usual way, to have the classification tables prepared and made ready to present to the committee for the awarding of contracts at its next meeting.A number of the members of the commit- the acquiesced in this, but Alderman Leclerc made objection and said it should be referred to a sub-committee.After a good deal of discussion it was resolved that Ald.Leclerc should be appointed one of the sub-committee, accompanied by Ald.Dagenais.None of the other members of the committee were willing to undertake such a task.In the meantime, knowing that the preparation of the large table sheets had to be made hy an expert, I gave orders in the drawing office to prepare these sheets, ready to receive the classifications of the articles by the sub-committee appointed for that purpose, and immediately they were finished I notified Ald.Leclerc and Dagenais, on the 5th of Juue in writing, according to copy attached, that the said tables were ready for them to start their work.On the following day.the 6th, Ald.Leclerc and Dagenais appeared at the other office of the Water Department aud ordered the secretary to make the table complete, without consulting me on the matter or paying any deference to my position as the responsible executor of the Department.The secretary informed me of the fact that he had received such orders as herein stated, and I said that these gentlemen would have to report the matter to the main Committee that they were unable to do this work, as appointed, when new orders would be given to have this work done in the usual way.At a meeting of the Water Committee on the 15th of June, the chairman asked the sub-committee, Ald.Leclerc and Dagenais, for their report on the classification of stores, when the answer was given that they had no report, us the superintendent had intervened nnd prevented reports being made by the secretary.The chairman, Ald.Thompson, and other aldermen immediately stated that there had been a misunderstanding, that the two gentlemen appointed as a sub-committee had better give up that work, as it was very much too complicated, and required experts to do this classification, and that they had better just allow the superintendent to go on and do this work immediately.The sub-committee demurred again, and stated that they would not do so, but would report at the next meeting.The sub - committee, Ald.Leclerc and Dagenais, having obtained the authority of the main committee to call on the secretary to assist them, called at the office and passed the following resolution: \u2018That the secretary be instructed to prepare for each member of the Water Committee a table form of the tenders received for stores and lumber, and that the superintendent prepare for the sub-committee a report on the quality of the samples received with the tenders, and that as soon as the whole is prepared, that the sub-committee be notified to that effect.\u201d After receiving a copy of the said resolution, which I considered was an order, Iim- mediately set the proper expert on making the table in question, and I immediately made the report as asked for, here also attached.I also attach a copy of one of the 16 tables that were made, in order to show whether this work would be expected to Le carried out by any alderman.It took four of the employees nearly the best part of eight days to do this, namely, Mr.Moretti, Mr.Dowd, Draughtsman, Brousseau, aud Mr.Marchand.Now, as his Worship the Mayor and his Council have to depend on the proper administration and hold responsible the head of each department to carry out their respective administration in the interest of the city of Montreal to a good and proper end, 1 feel certain that such administration cannot be expected if aldermen would promiscuously give orders to any members of the office staff, to take upon themselves to .order three or four of the employes in their various capacities, to remove them from their detail work and place them at other work, without knowing to what detriment and loss such manipulation of the staff might result in, without consulting with the responsible head of the department.I need not say that such administration would never be tolerated with a view of giving a proper result, if due deference is not paid to the person who is held responsible by the Mayor and the Council for the proper administration of his office.Had Ald.Leclerc and Dagenais wished to deal in any way responsible and earnestly to have this work carried out, they only had to call in or pass such a resolution as they had at the last, ordering the Superintendent to have the work done, and it would have been carried out as it had to be at the end, without the slightest demurring, which proves that there was no intention on my part to either give annoyance or cause anybody to be annoyed with the proper conduct of my office.I am quite certain that the two -gentle- men, Ald.Leclere and Dagenais, must have felt rather astonished themselves when they saw the complication of the work after it was done, which they had assumed the responsibility to do.Ifelt it my duty that I had no right to takelthe work fromthe handsof the sub-com- mittee who insisted on being appointed for the purpose of doing it themselves, as the Main Committee would have had a perfect right to find fault with me, and ask an explanation as'to who authorized me to take the work from the hands of those who had be.n appointed to do it, and assume a posi- ton without having received any cuthority ior so doing.A5 TO THE INSULTS COMPLAINED OF, HERE ARE THE FACTS : A day or two after the mecting of the committee, after the awarding of the contracts for stores had been given, Ald.Dagenais and Leclerc came into my office in a very rude manner, stood up in tront of my desk, whilst Ald.Dagenais ordered in the grossest way.He said, *\u2018I require a report from you of all the foremen and inspectors in the Department.\u201d In answer, I said to him very politely, \u201cWhat kind of a report do you wishl\u201d He replied : \u201cI require a report such as I have already asked, and I have brought a witness with me, as I intend doing in the future as you make false reports,\u201d and almost in the same Lie .th, he took a step or two backwards and said : \u201cYou are a liar\u201d in French; he used the words : \u2018Vous etes un monteur.\u201d At this I considered the insult too great without having given the slightest provocation.I stood up, the desk heing between him and myself, and told him that I considered him exceedingly impolite and ill- manered, and that he had no right whilst he was an alderman to come into my office and insult me in such a manner.I further said, after some altercating words, that he was fortunate to be covered by the Hotel de Ville and the title of alderman, as he would not dare to do so if it were otherwise.As he was about to insult me again, I told him that he had better not dare to continue insulting me in my office, as I declared that I would not stand any more of it.To the proof of this Ald.Cresse sat in a chair in my office, next to myself.I leave this matter to you, gentlemen, as I simply expect to be treated justly at your hands.As to the statement of impoliteness in my not removing my hat while passing these two gentlemen in the outer office, after receiving the insults as stated ahove I also leave, gentlemen, to your judgment.Only I will beg to add that after a life time's experience, having had control of thousands of men and held responsible and important positions, it was the first time in my life that I was so grossly insulted, and that without the slightest provocation.I claim that I have never been charged with impoliteness to anybody in my life.I think that I would never have dared to speak to to the commonest laborer that was ever under my command in the rude and ill-mannered way by the alderman herein named, and, to the best of my opinion, this was all caused by personal motives.Most respectfully submitted, By your humble servant, A.Davis.Supt.M.W.W.A copy of the Water Committee\u2019s resolution appointing the sub-committee was asked for by Ald.Rainville, and it was produced.Ald.Leclerc said he was anxious to maintain his aldermanic respect and that he surely had a right to give employees certain orders.Minutes of the sub-committee were then called for, by which it was evident that at a meeting of a sub-committee held on 6th June, the secretary was instructed tu tabulate all the tenders, but the secretary telling the superintendent of instructions, was told by him that as the sub-committee were appointed to the work he need not do it.On June 15th at another meeting there was a resolution that the secretary be again instrneted to tabulate for each member of the committee tenders received Jor store and lumber, and that the superintendent report to the sub-committee on the quality of the samples received with the tenders.Ald.Dagenais then admitted that he was provoked by the superintendent and had called Mr.Davis a liar.The committee then adjourned until Monday at 10.15, when witnesses will be heard.CENSUS RATIO OF THE SEXES.Men In the United States Considerably Outnumber the Women.There are 1,500,000 more men than women in the United States, or rather 1,500,000 more male than female persons, the census officials in the interior department making no discrimination between rosy youth and crabbed age in their computations.If this disparity were generally distributed throughout the whole country, it would make the United States an exception among civilized countries, in nearly all of which women either predominate or are nearly as numerous as ren, The place of the greatest preponderance of women in the United States at the present time is the District of Columbia, where the ratio in number as compared with men is 110 to 100.Then comes Massachusetts, 105 to 100; then Rhode Island, 105 to 100, and then in the order named North Carolina and Maryland, 102 to 100; Connecticut, New Hampshire, New York, South Carolina and Virginia, 101 to 160, In New York state the excess of women over men is 44,- 000, In New York city there are 20,000, and in Brooklyn there are 17,000 more women than men.In two states the number of male and fe male persons is substantially the same\u2014 New Jersey and Louisiana, These were the figures in Louisiana in 1890: Male, 559,350; female, 559,237.In seven southern states, Alabaimna, Georgia, Mississippi, Tennessee, Kentucky, Delaware and West Virginia; in two western states, Ohio and Indiana; in two New England states, Maine and Vermont, and in Pennsylvania, the male population outnumbers the female population in the proportion of 100 to 63 In Illinois the proportion of women to men is 94 per cent; in Florida and Missouri, 93; in Wisconsin, Iowa and Arkansas, 93, and in Michigan, Texas and Kansas, 80.In Minnesota it is 87; in Nebraska, 84; in South Dakota, 82, and in North Dakota, 80.In other states the proportion of female inhabitants falls below 75 per cent of the number of male inhabitants.In California, in consequence of the large number of Chinamen engaged in domestic service and in consequence of the absence of Chinese women, the percentage is 72.In Oregon, for : the same reason, it is ¥2.In Colorado and Idaho, where the mining interests are extensive and the hardships of existence outside of the chief cities outweigh the conveniences, it is 68 and 64 respectively.In Washington, among the lumber camps, it | is 60 per cent.In Nevada, among the mines, it is56; in Wyoming, 54, and in Montana, 50.The male birth rate is higher than the female birth rate in about the proportion of 100 to 97, and the male emigration to the

STORED POWER SUFFF- CIENT FOR ANY EMERGENCY.Wind and Water Ready to Take the Place of Coal\u2014Waste In Present Methods of Food Production\u2014The Optimistic View of the Earth\u2019s Future.Pessimist\u2014I have meat to eat, wool to wear, coal to burn.My material wants are measurably satisfled.But the race is doomed.You and I will not see the day, but it will come, when coal is exhausted by the ever igcreasing demand, when the earth no more yields food for the starving millions, when the temperate zones must bs abandoned for the lack of fuel and under the tropic sun men turned again to beasts struggle for the mere privilege of living.Arts, manufactures, sciences, everything, will follow fuel and light into the void of the forgotten.Books will perish, cities crunble and gibbering apes crawl again where men walked, their degeneracy ac complished, the cycle of evolution complete.Then let the sun\u2019s paling light fall, the quicker the better, on a dead world, white and frozen from pole to equator.Optimist\u2014Bosh! There never was a great human want that was not met.It is a short time, comparatively, since wood was the fuel of the world.It became scarce, and conl was discovered in quantities apparently inexhaustible in spite of what you say.But grant for the sake of argument that the use of coal must some day cease.That ought not to worry us, now that the Niagara tunnel is opened.Pessimist\u2014What has that\u2014 Optimist\u2014Everything.Light, heat, motion, power are all manifestations of the same force and theoretically interchangeable.No one of them is ever lost.The trouble has been to manage the transforina- tion.Power is plenty without coal, but it isn\u2019t easy to lead it to its work.Try to do this with belts and shafts, and if the distance is great power becomes changed to heat by friction on the way.But now comes the great mutual reagent, electricity.At Lake Huella in Sweden 300 horsepower are to be generated by turbine water wheels, wired six miles to a lighting station and eight miles to a power station.If six and eight miles, why not 60 and 80?There is Niagara now in harness.Buffalo will become a greater manufacturing city than ever before, yet burn relatively less coal.Every minute the water that glides over that mighty cliff is the power equivalent of thousands of tons of coal.This energy cun be sent by wire to New York if you like and used to run sausage grinders.Having leaimed to change heat to power and telegraph it where we like, we shall learn to transmit power back into heat and warm ourselves in winter by the Grand falls of Labrador.Why go so far?The coal fields are bottled sunshine from the carboniferous period.Let's bottle our: own, We have enough of it in summer.Or catch the force of the tide which surges through our inlets and turn that into power and heat.Then you'll see lumps of coal in cabinets labeled, \u201cFormerly used for fuel.\u201d Then there is the wind.More wind power is used now than ever before, but its use is just begun.It is free, inexhaustible.Put up your shaft anywhere and set Boreas grinding corn.It is irregular, but if there is a cyclone in Kansas and a calm in Dakota, Dakota can telegraph, \u201cPlease wire us 300 h.p.per minute t.f., and chg.to our acc\u2019 All this is supposing that coal runs out.But it won't.We understand better the conservation as well as the correlation of energy.Many a man is running a 80 h.p.engine on less coal than he formerly used for6 h.p.The Campania burns no more than the old Servia.We have wasted our wood and our coal.Inventive genius is now economizing.There are plenty of sawmills that use no fuel but the sawdust they make.Pessimist\u2014Yes, but food?Optimist\u2014Waste again.We waste by feeding corn to cattle and then eating the cattle, instead of catingthecorn.We waste by turning sewage into the sea, instead of making it productive as at Pullman.We waste by slovenly farming.There isalmost no limit to the productiveness of a single acre.Belgium teaches us that.The denser the population the better the farming.No soil is so poor that it cannot be made to yield threo or four big crops a year by tillage, which is applied power, and by fertilization.Atwater has raised splendid crops on sea sand, which had been baked to de stroy every atom of virtue in it.It is all a question of power, power, power, in some one of its forms, and when we have harnessed Niagara to his plow the farmer can kill his oxen and 100 people live on the produce of their pasture.Draw a circle of 80 miles radius around New York.Within that circle can be raised all the food the city needs, if you climainate waste.The desert of Sahara could feed every human being on the planet and cry for more.Power, its transmission, transformation and economy, is the solution of the question, and of power there is no apparent limit.Pessimist\u2014But there is heat.Heat is from the sun, the tides from the sun and moon combined.When the sun loses its heat it will cease to build clouds, and Niagara will run dry.No wind will blow your wheels about.Your farnter will lose that which is more necessary than power\u2014 light and water.Where is humanity theu?Optimist\u2014I don\u2019t know.But are you sure the sun is growing cold?Some say its everlasting fires are stoked by a constant rain of aerolites, the inconceivable force of their impact transmuted to heat keeping him up to his work.The sun\u2019s heat cannot be lest.Nothing is lost.It may be changed to another form of energy.to emerge when the whirling worlds in their orbits clash and from the nebula of their unimaginable collision is fashioned forth anew universe.Pessimist\u2014Well, we're all right for the present anyhow.Optimist\u2014So you said in the first place Have you seen Jones today?\u2014John L Hea- ton in New York Recorder.Mr.MeCarthy Was Too Fremature.Mr.McCarthy of Norwalk was indiscreet enough to secure his marriage certificate before he put the important question to tie young woman.At last accounts Mr.Me- Carthy was still a single man, and the thrifty maiden had deposited the certificate with the town clerk te be made over when the right man came along.This little story goes to prove that the race is not always to the swift and that enterprise is sometimes unrewarded.\u2014New York World.Enameling of the Egyptians.Enameling does not appear to

they suffer less from epidemics and contagious diseases, because generally speaking they are in better health and more observant of hygienic rules.The devastations of war have in most European countries offset the normal increase of the male population, and in the United States the deaths due tothe civil war have been since its close a factor in establishing a deficiency of male persons in most old neighborhoods.But after all, even though the census figures do not discloge it, the most noticeable absence of male persons is probably to be found on the front pinzza of the average summer

life, which other peoples may well study : À good German home is the best in the world.Isay th:s peremptorily.German mothers are thoroughly maternal and extremely affectionate\u2019; German fathers are generally forbearing and moderate, and singularly -inclined to \u201cdomestication ;\u201d German children generally grow up, as by instinct, with an admirable mixture of filial reverence and affection.The Germans.love large families ; the more ¢hildren the better, according to their philosophy of life: una they gererally have abundanae of them.They despise the French and American { misanthropy in this respect, and justly point to it as a proof of demorilization, unknown in their own better land.In their home life they seem continually but unconsciously to be contriving agreeable surprises for each other, and this good feeling overflows the boundaries of home and reaches all the intimacies of their lives\u2014their kindred, their neighbors, their pastors, ane their schoolmasters.No people make more pleasure out of fete days, birthdays, wedding anniversaries, etc.For a German not to know the wedding anniversaries of all his intimate friends, and mot tc commemorate them by some token of affection, however slight (for the valu= is nothing compared to the sentiment) is a barbarisin, a sacrilege, In large families these commemorations, reaching from the grandparent to the yearning baby, and extending out to all dear friends, keep up, of course, an almost continuous exercise of kindly attentions, and forethought; and the Germans have quite universally a peculiar tact of clothing these beautiful ittle things with dramatic surprises, so as to render the \u201cmanner\u201d infinitely more precious than the \u2018\u2018matter.\u201d The lowliest village schoolmaster's birthday is known to all his rustic flock, and his cottage on that day isa shrine of pilgrimage to ull the little feet of the hamlet; flowers, books, cheeses, loaves of bread, embroidered slippers, chickens, geese, even young pigs, are showered upon him ; he is decked with bouquets, and his humble home garlanded within and without ; he is addressed in original doggerel, and serenaded with music and dancing.And thus, also, fares the village pastor.And all these things are done so heartily, so joyously, as to be evidently spontaneous, never ceremonious, as much a joy to the donors as to the recipients.Add to these domestic occasions the public festive days of the Church and the State, and you can imagine that German life has holidays enough.Christmas and similar days are occasions of incredible festivities throughout Germany.Santa Claus has 10 better dominion.\u2014**The Methodist.\u201d A DRAGOON\u2019S SUICIDE.Walter Arthurs Takes His Life While Awaiting Court Martial.Quebec, July 26.\u2014A snicide occurred this morning at the barracks of the Royal Canadian Dragoons in_ this city.À young Englishman from Bristol, England, aged 19 years, and belonging to a

was then observed to act strangely.Finally he left without leave of absence, and was arrested in Levis, dressed in citizens clothes.À very séri- ous charge was brought against him, and he was placed in a cell in charge of Sergeant Masworthy pending his trial before court martial.This morning he was found.by his keeper lying on his back où the floor of the cell.His rifle was between his legs.He had shot himself in the mouth.The palate and the skull were shattered, the brain being blown away.At 12 o'clock to-day the commander of the Dragoons mustered the men in the barracks in order to proceed with the reading of the court-martial sentence in Arthur\u2019s case, as deceased was a lance sergeant.Doctors Sewell and Parke will perform autopsy on the remains this afternoon.Coroner Belleau will hold an inquest to-morrow morning, when all the particulars concerning the young man will be known.Murdered Wife and Daughters, Pittsburg, Pa., July 26.\u2014Johun Smouz, a laborer, 35

the farming classes under the observation of the Government, which stands pledged to such a revision of the tariff as shall be to the interest of the country as a whole, is worthy of high commendation and close consideration.It must be assumed that the recent visit of Mr.George Taylor, the Conservative member for Leeds, with several of his constituents to St.Lawrence ahd Jefferson counties, in the State of New York, their investigation of the condition af the farmers in those two counties, and «heir report upon what they had learned was an attempt of that sort.It is true that they find that the Canadian farmer has no wants that may be filled by alteration of the existing Canadian fiscal system.But Mr.Taylor's delegates are farmers themselves and probably brought to the formation of their judgment an honest desire to further their own interest.It will be remembered that in February last Mr.Taylo: addressed to a meeting of his censtituents a letter in which he referred to the wide discussion of the proposition of freer trade relations between Canada and the United States, and to the Government promise of tariff reform and suggested the preparation of such evidence as would apprise the Government cominissior ers of the farmers\u2019 opinions as to how that reform should be conducted in their interest.To that end he asked them to sclect a committee of farmers who upon an agreeable date should meet Lim at Brockville.\u201c Wo will then,\u201d he said, \u2018cross over the river to Clayton and drive through the country as far as Ogdensburg, calling at farm houses, stores, cheese factories, and learn how land compares in value with ours; also, horses, cattle, sheep, pork, eggs, fruits, butter, cheese, grain, roots, ete, etc.; the taxes paid by farmers there as compared with ours; the prices of farm machinery, waggons, buggies, groceries, cottons, woollens, clothing, etc., etc.; and the prices paid to laborers, ete.; and to see generally if the farmers who have the benefit of the 65,000,000 market are more prosperous than we are in Canada, how lands and personal property stand as to mortgages, etc., and to generally gather such information as to be able to advise the Government where changes, if any, can be made that will benefit the agricultural interests of the Canadian farmer.\u201d Mr.Taylor's invitation was accepted and on July 4 he set out upon his mission.\u2018He was accompanied by nine delegates, representing the farming, cheese making -and milling interests and including one agricultural implement dealer and one general merchant.They summarize their report to Mr.Taylor as follows : From all we could learn we found that farmers in Jefferson and St.Lawrence counties, where we visited, pay as much or more for what they have to purchase and get no more for the produce they have to sell than do farmers in the county of Leeds.We also found that they arc not any more prosperous, and from all we could gather are more heavily mortgaged than farmers in the county of Leeds.Wealso found that well improved farms of the very best of soil, free from broken lands, and lying within from 2 to 10 miles of the city of Ogdensburg, as well as in other localities where we made enquiries, can be purchased much cheaper than lands of the same quality with same improvements similarly situated in the county of Leeds; that lands have depreciated in value more in the last 10 years in St.Lawrence and Jefferson counties than similarly situated lands in the county of Leeds.In regard to prices we found cotton oods of all kinds will average about the same n the United States as in Canada; woollen goods of all kinds and clothing are very much igher in the States than in Canada; sugar and teas are higher in the States than in Canada; provisions about the same; agricultural machinery and binder twine are higher in the States than in Canada; waggons and buggics, considering quality, the Canadian goods arc as cheap if not cheaper than the American; cheese furnishings are higher in tho States than in Canada, while cheese is not so high; taxes, irrespective of school and poll taxes are higher in the States than in Canada; western corn is very little, if any, used by the farmers for fe g purposes in the section of country ! visited by us, farmers u:ing chiefly their own ! course grains.These conclusions are based upon comparative tables of prices in South Leeds and the two New York counties of groceries, dry goods, hardware, harness, farm implements, carringes and cheese furnishings, and upon several conversations with the farmers and others visited.The report undoubtedly contains much valuable information, but its relevancy to the Canadian tariff enquiry and to the matter of freer trade relations with the United States may be fairly questioned.It may prove that the Canadian farmer is not so badly off as his American brother, but it is not clear that this superiority is anything more than (\u20ac ground for thankfulness aud admiration for the industry and intelligence of our farmers,\u201d as the Toronto Globe says in a cautious, dispassionate, but thoroughly destructive review of the report.The Globe remarks that the depreciation of New York has not been questioned and was fully demonstrated by the two commissioners sent into Orleans county last year by The Globe itself.But Mr.Taylor's delegates have failed to suggest a cause for that depreciation, and their failure vitiates their argument.In like manner it may be urged with justice that the statement \u201cthat cheese furnishings are higher in the United States than Canada, while cheese is not so high,\u201d is irrelevant to the enquiry.Itis evidence simply of the highly pleasing fact that dairying in Canada is already more profitable than in the United States, and that in a free American market Canadian farmers would get for their cheese higher prices than American cheese would fetch.Upon this point The Globe says :\u2014 It is a fact, we believe, that the superior quality of Canadian cheese would be able to beat farm lands American cheese in New York, just as it beats it in England, and, therefore, that the ohecse factories would benefit by reciprocity.The delegates scem to have been largely interested in dairying, and the promincuce which they give in their report to the advantages which Canadlan dairymen enjoy, while it emphasizes something in which no one can rejoice more than does The Globe, can help iio one to better understand the merits of cither tariff revision or freer trade relations with the States.The delegates were asked to obtain evidence that would enable them to advise the Finance Minister witit regard to the revision of the tariff, The irrelevancy of the reference to the amount of municipal taxation paid by the New York farmers is so apparent as to need no comment and the reference to the mortwaging of the Now York farms is clearly in need of explanation as to cause.So much of the report then, may be fairly said to have no place in the enquiry.The price of living is more clearly within the scope of the question.In the matter of groceries and dry goods, jt is fair to remember that the United States are under a higher protective tariff than Canada and the lists prepared by the delegates unfortunately fail to touch these articles upon which the Canadian duty is higher than the American.The Globe holds on the authority of the Massey-Harris agency, that the prices of implements in Canada are understated by the delegates, and holds, further, that in the matter of binder twine the report of the delegates is absolutely misleading.The Globe says : They quote Canadian prices: Standard, 9} cents per pound; mavilla, 10} cents per pound.United States price: Standard, 11 cents per pound; manilla, 12} cents per pound.Let the accuracy of these prices be granted, and, according to an_explanation of binder twine quotations whieh Mr.Davin made in Parlia- nient last session, and which was not questioned, although the president of ithe Con- sumetrs\u2019 Cordage Company had a scat in the House, pure manilla, such as is sold in the Stales, runs 690 feet to the pound while mixed, which we suppose is the \u201cstandard\u201d referred to by the delegates.runs 570 fect to the pound.\u201cBlue Ribbon,\u201d whichis the Canadian brand corresponding to the American pure manilla, runs only 350 feet to the pound, while \u201cLied Cap\u201d (or \u201cstandard\u201d) has only 480 feet.If, therefore, as the delegates say, Canadian manilla, or \u201cBlue Ribbon,\u201d sells for 10} cents a pound of 550 feet, that comes to Lu cents for 690 feet in Canada, or i cent à pounc more than the American price for 690 fect of pure manilla.By the same simple calculation 1tis found that if standard, or \u201cRed Cap,\u201d sells in Canada for 9} cents for 480 feet, 570 feet would be worth 11 cents, or the same as 570 feet of American standard.So that the delegates secu to have been misled, and instead of American twine being dearer the besc kind is cheaper than in Canada, while the other quality is the same price.In the matter of hardware, to which the delegates make no allusion in their summary, they find that the Canadian prices are on the whole greater than the American.But, as The Globe maintains, even this branch of the enquiry is secondary to the question as to the prices which the New York farmer gets for his produce.He may \u201c\u2018 dissipate his income and mortgage his farm, and what the Canadian farmer wants to know is the amount of that income.\u201d To make comparisons of the respective costs of living and none of incomes deprives the argument of all force.The delegates confess to carelessness in the correction of figures of prices of American products.They got them at haphazard from the several farmers on whom they called.The Globe says : So that the delegates may get the benefit of all the produce quotations put into their report, we have put them together, and here they are, with the prices of the samc articles on the farmers\u2019 markets in Toronto, as given in The Empire of Saturday : American price.Choice

correspond with \u201cfat cattle that will dress from 400 to 450 pounds.\u201d In the price of hogs the American quotation may have been for rongh logs, such as sold iu Toronto on Friday for S5 to 85.50.The quotations of produce gathered by the dcle- gates are not vouched for by them in the same way that the other prices are, although they are considered sufficient upon which to base their conclusions.Unfortunately, we have not at our hand a copy of on Ogdensburg paper containing the quotations of that mar- LP but here are the quotations from the re- Toronto price.yorts of the farmers\u2019 markets of Oswego and Plica, of the 19th July, which may serve to cheek the accuracy or error of the delegates\u2019 witnesses\u2019 prices.At Utica the prices paid to farmers were : ; Dairy products-\u2014Butter, dairy, 18e to 20c per pound, creamery, 20¢ to Zle per pound; cgirs, fresh State, 15¢ to 16¢ per dozen; oats, 40 to 42¢.dressed hogs, Bic to Ye; hay, loose, $11 to 812 per ton; oat straw, $7 to $9 per ton.At Oswegothe prices were :(\u2014Qats \u2014 Market steady; No.1 white.41c; butter, 16¢ to 7c per pound; eggs: | fresh, 16c to 17¢ per dozen; pork, dressed, 9¢ per pound: hay quoted at $10 to $12 per ton.It appears then that upon first construction tlie report of Mr.Taylor's delegates is highly favorable to the establishment of a large measure of reciprocity.It demonstrates that Canadian produce may be sold at better figures than the American, while it costs less for the Canadian farmer to live.This appears to be a sound demonstration and the delegates have added important corroboration to the statement that with a decreased cost of living and a wide market for his products, in which markets the superior excellence of their products would command a sale, his fortune would be assured.THE CURRAN BRIDGE MATTER.It would take à man cousiderably sharper than the proverbially acute Philadelphia lawyer to follow the Curran bridge investigation m all its sinuosities.Who is to blame ?As nearly as we can make it out everybody who had anything to do with it, from the Minister of Railways and Canada, who made foolish contracts, down to the laborer who loafed, aided in making the construction of the bridge a model of mismanagement.Those that were not absolutely dishonest were incapable, or indifferent.The responsibility rests broadly with the Government, which is responsible for the doings of its officers.This responsibility will have to be assumed chiefly by the Department of Railways and Canals, which, as Mr.H.J.Beemer substantially said in his evidence, set about building this bridge in a manner which invited lavish expenditure.The departmental ofticers were probably honest enough about it, but they made unwise contracts and trusted to their subordinates to shield them from the evil effects of their own carelessness.When it was too late Mr.Haggart found himself face to face witha huge departmental scandal, Mr.Haggart is now trying to live down some serious charges preferred against him in past years by making a reputation for himself as a carcful and economical administrator.To have his budding career cut short by the discovery of such wastefulness as characterized the building of the Curran Bridge did not at all suit him, and ho | determined to hold a departmental in- | vestigation and propitiate publie opinion by rolling a few heads into the basket.If the curtain could be withdrawn it would undoubtedly be found that Mr.Curran, Solicitor- General, and Mr.Quimet, Minister of Public Works strongly opposed this idea, but as Mr.Haggart does not believe in self-effacement for the good of his colleagues, he overruled their objections.These gentlemen then secured the appointment of a goverminent lawyer to see that the exposures which Mr.Hagoart considered it necessary to make in his own interest should be as limited as possible.This brings us down to the opening of the investigation.The Comunissioners were there in Mr.Haggart\u2019s interest, de- termined to clear him, no matter what the consequences might be; Mr.Atwater was there with a whitewash brush of considerable proportions, prepared on short notice to rehabilitate bespattored reputations ; and the men implicated had their lawyers present to defend them.The application of The Herald to intervene on behalf of the public was tabooed by all parties ; it was felt that the presence of an able lawyer, with competent engineers to assist him, in the interests only of the public, might prove exceedingly inconvenient to those who were desirous that the grindstone should only run long enough to sharpen their own axes.The investigation went on, with each faction pulling its own way, with the result that everybody concerned has been more or less bespattered.Mr.Parent is apparently less to blame than anybody else.Nominally in charge, he had no authority whatever.He and Mr.Kennedy came early into conflict and the latter\u2019s po+ litical pull earned for him an easy vie- tory.Mr.Parent had nobody behind him; while Mr.Kennedy was the visible embodiment of that political power which is possessed by Mr.J.J.Curran and Mr.W.W.Ogilive.They secured his original appointment as Superintendent of the Lachine canal; they travelled to Ottawa together and had him appointed overseer to the exclusion of Mr.Parent who was better qualified.Armed with the approbation of these \u2018bosses\u2019 Mr.Kennedy proceeded to have a high old time.He told Mr.Parent when that gentleman asked him for a report, that he had no time for scribbling, and he instructed his foremen that any man giving information to Mr.Parent would be dismissed.Mr.Parent, having read somewhere that discretion was the better part of valor, withdrew from the battle in good order and went into his tents to sulk.The field being left clear Mr.Kennedy proceeded to display his ability as an overseer.Mr.St.Louis, the contractor, sized him up early in the game and proceeded to make hay while the sun shone.What ensued the evidence that is daily being brought out before the commission tells in part,but there is much that is yet awaiting elucidation.Enough hag been shown to demonstrate that it would be wise to permit Mr.Kennedy to return forthwith to that sphere in private life which he graced before the earnest solicitation of Mr.Curran and Mr.Ogilvie induced him to honor the people of Canada by working for them.But he should not be the only victim, for not by the punishment of any number of subordinates can Joln Graham Haggart, Minister of Railways and Canals, be excused.A Bic ITEM is the increase in foreign trade that Canada is credited witb in Government blue books is bullion, which is exported and reimported perhaps half a dozen times a year, but is always counted.During the past year about two and a half millions of gold bullion was exported from here to the United States, but the statement of specie at present in the country shows that it has all been returned with the exception of $100,000.We may therefore wipe off our aggregate of foreign trade for the past year at least five million dollars.THE Gazerre misapprehends The Herald's approval of its suggestion that the present Dominion Franchise Act should be replaced by one providing for manhood suffrage and voluntary regis- The Herald made no comparison between the system proposed by The Gazette and the course suggested by the Liberals at the recent convention ; but it did say that an amendment of the Doimn- inion Act in the direction proposed would be a very great improvement.There probably would not be much to choose between manhood suffrage and voluntary registration under the authority of a Dominjon Act and the utilization of the provincial franchises.The latter are all rapidly approaching the manhood suffrage point, while the principles of one man, one vote, and voluntary registration have also beenadopted in some of the provinces.Probably within ten years, if we except Quebec which clings to the old idea of a property qualification, the franchises of the various provinces will be identical in their qualifications, which will be of the simplest and fairest kind.Practically there is not very much difference between the reform suggested by the Gazette and the reform suggested by the Liberals.The use of the provincial franchises, which scems an almost revolutionary procedure to The Gazette, is no new thing, The first five Canadian Parliaments were elected on Provincial lists, and they gave entire satisfaction te both political parties.The Dominion Franchise Act was introduced into Parliament in 1885 by Sir John Macdonald in response to no public request for it.It was forced on an unwilling Parliament by a domineering politician who desired to make tration.it an instrument for the theft of Liberal constituencies.It has done its cowardly work well In its place welshould have either a Dominion Franchise Act, whose provisions are simple and just; or we should return to the provincial lists, which in past years were found to be suitable.The Herald is not particular asto which alternative is adopted.It is more interested in having honest lists than in wrangling over the way the lists should be prepared.Mz.TARTE corrects a misstatement of The Hamilton Spectator.If he proposes, however, to keep that paper straight in its statements he had better lay in a ton of paper and several boxes of pens.He will need them before he gets through.CORRESPONDENCE.A Letter From Mr.Tarte.To the Editor of The Herald.Sir, \u2014By whom is The Hamilton Spectator edited ?He makes me say for the ninth time that if Mr.Laurier was in power he would disallow the Manitoba School Act : The real reason for theif complaint has been given to the public by Mr.Tarte.That gentleman said in Mr.Laurier's presence, and un- contradicted by him, that if Mr.Laurier were in power he would disallow the Manitoba School Act.Well, I am no fool, I think.The time for disallowance expired in April, 1801.How could I have said what The Spectator puts into my mouth after The Star, which had at St.Aime for its reporter one Morgan, from Sorel, who does not seem to know much about journalism.ISRAEL TARTE.Montreal, July 25th, 1893.\u2014 LITERARY NOTES.A curious souvenir of Robert Louis Stevenson\u2019s connection with Edinburgh has been picked up in a bookstall in \u2018that city.This is a copy of the novelist\u2019s testimonials in applying in 1881 for the chair of History and Constitutional Law in Edinburgh University.With a delightful disregard of the the ordinary methods pursued hy applicants for vacancies, Mr.Stevenson writes on the title page of the list of testimonials: \u2018As Mr.Stevenson is at present on the continent and cannot personally meet with the electors, he has considered it advisable to submit the accompanying testimonials for their perusal.\u201d His sponsors were men of note, including Leslie Stephen, Edmund Gosse, John Addington Symonds, Andrew Lang, Professor Meiklejohn, Professor Sidney Colvin, the Rev.Professor Churchill Babington, Professor Thomas S.Baynes, Professor Sellar and Principal Tul- loch.Of Mr.Stevenson\u2019s knowledge of constitutional law little or nothing was said in the testimonials.The late Profes- for Baynes wrote : \u201cMr.Stevenson seems able not only to realize the very form and pressure of a great national crisis, but to detect the more obscure personal and social causes, which, while helping to develop the national character, gradually change the direction of its activities and give a new complexion to its polity and publie life.\u201d Andrew Lang thought him to be \u201c\u2018 the most ingenious and refined writer of his generation.\u201d Leslie Stephen knew \u2018 of no writer of Mr.Stevenson\u2019s standing of whose future career he entertains greater expectations,\u201d and Principal Tulloch observed : ¢ It is no exaggeration to say that there is no young writer who hus given more promise of distinction in belle fettres.\u201d A feature of the publishing business, which of present years is\u2018conspicuous by its absence is the method of selling books by canvassers.Among London houses a generation ago the bland book canvasser was tobe met everywhere.Occasionally he was welcome, but in general his lot was not a happy one, for the busy abused him and wits made him the object of clumsy ridicule.But by a suave manner, an invincible patience and importunity that knew no bounds, he succeeded in getting subscriptions, and in the rural districts especially, was Very successful.Mr.ames Sangster has given some surprising Statistics relating to the old system.Cf \u201cSangster\u2019s Popular Library,\u201d 120,000 volumes were sold on the subscription plan, and of another important work 50,000 were sold, while the sale of Bibles and educational books was enormous.Mr.Sangster ascribes the decay of the system of canvassing partly to the spread of cheap literature, and partly to the multiplication of magazines and weekly papers.Speuking of this system,a London weekly remarks that although the canvasser has withdrawn from London and the larger provincial towna.hais pat hv any means Correct : Observatory : Time \u2014 AT \u2014 J.B.WILLIAMSON\u2019S 1741 NOTRE DAME STREET, Just received per 88.Sardinian, a large consignment of

with his pack.Inthe Highlands and the Western islands, where booksellers are rare, he is often the only medium between the publisher and the people.But, like the mail coach, he is being pushed further and further into the mountain wilds and will some day disappear altogether.The recent annual dinner of the Incorporated Society of Authors in London was as pleasant and well managed as usual, and was followed by speeches rather fewer in number than on some previous vccasions and admirably brief and to the point, while the adjournment afterwards to other rooms in the same building for coffee and conversation was much appreciated by many members and guests.It has been suggested that a conversazione or evening party held by the society would probably be highly popnlar among its members, as permitting more circulation and mutual introduction than a dinner.Messrs.T.Y.Crowell & Co., of New York, announce for early publication \u2018\u201cTheology of the Old Testament,\u201d by Ch.Piepen- bring, Pastor and President of the Reformed Consistory at Strasburg, translated by Professor H.G.Mitchell, of the Boston University.The book, while in direct line with advanced modern thought, is written in a purely evangelical spirit.The Scottish Leader notes the fact that Mr.John Orr, a missionary in Edinburgh, is one of the very few men living who came in contact with Scott.Mr.Orr, when a boy, was taken to Abbotsford to be examined as a witness in some petty case which fell with Scott\u2019s jurisdiction as sheriff.When he had given his evidence, Sir Walter asked Lim several questions, and on finishing patted the boy on the head and gave him à sixpence.Mr.Orr treasured the coin as a precious souvenir of the author of \u2018\u2018Waverly,\u201d and, it is said, has the sixpence in his possession still.M.Zola\u2019s coming novel, Dr.Pascal, will bring his Rougon-Macquart series to à conclusion.His next work, he says, will be a philosophical and scientific defence of his 20 volumn series\u2014a work in which he will undertake to justify his theories and methods.After that will follow three great novels, to to be called Lourdes, Rome and Paris.A volume which promises to be specially interesting is the forthcoming \u2018Florentine Life During the Renaissance,\u201d by Walter B.Scaife, Ph.D.It is to be brought out by the Johns Hopkins Press.The anthor has used the many letters and diaries of the age of the Renaissance whieh have been printed by the Italian antiquaries in the past few years, and he will present facts not heretofore accessible to the reader unacquainted with Italian.The ten chapters of the work will deal with the Government of Florence, with the pubiic, private, intellectual and religious life of the Florentines and with their commerce and industries, their charities, public works, amusements, etc.It is announced that William C.Todd, of Atkinson, N.H., has given to the trustees of the Boston Public Library the sun of 250,000, to be invested as to secure an annual income of 22,000, to be devoted to maintaining a newspaper reading room, in which newspapers from every large city in the world may be consulted.A new translation of Dante's \u201cInferno,\u201d by Mr.George Musgrave, is about to be published in London.The translation is the on?y one yet attempted in the Spencerian metre, which appears to the author to be peculiarly adapted for the purpose, inasmuch as Dante's ideas are for the most part divided up into periods of nine lines, and the Spencerian metre gives some echo of thering rnd the beautiful interlinking rhyme sounds of Dante\u2019s own metre.Judge Dugas WIll Deliberate.Judge Dugas took en delibere yesterday an important case as to whether the provincial Government has any right to interfere with the sale of liquor on inland steamships.The action was brought against Captain Roy, of the Richelieu steamer Montreal, who was charged with selling liquor on board the vessel without a license.Mr.Girouard, his counsel, admitted the facts, but claimed that as matters affecting navigation were controlled by the Dominion Government, the provincial Government, by whose officers the present action was taken, had no right to interfere.The Gold Imports.New York, July 26.\u2014The gold imports to-day amounted to $625,000, of which $500,000 was Spanish gold from Havana, N.Y.Piano

last night, which was attended by a very large crowd of enthusiastic lovers of aquatic sport.The program was a varied one, everything from water polo, 100 yard dashes, to diving competitions, Of course, the water polo matches were the most exciting, and friends of all teams were present to cheer their particular favorites on to victory.The result of these matches will be found in the annexed summary.Miss Beckwith, one of the family of the great English swimmers, was an interested spectator of the evenings entertainment.One matter that should be improved upon at the baths is the time at which the members of the teams turn up.Last night the entertainment was delayed for a long time on account of à few members not turning up in time.$m results of the different events follow : Water polo, Grand Trunk ys.Montreal Swimming Club, was won by the M.8.C.by three goals to two.M.A.A.A.vs.Laurentians resulted in a victory for the Laurentians by five goals to one.The all round swimming competition was not finished.Diving competition\u2014H.B.Carter, 30 plates; Keyworthe, 29 strain 28.100 yds., boys handicap\u2014Laverty, 5 yards 1; Falconer, ser, 2.; Combination race\u2014Godwin, }

Kingston, Ont., July 26.\u2014The meeting of the American Canoe Association to be held on the river St.Lawrence in August will be a success.J.P.Wiser, of Prescott, with a party of 12, is coming.Ottawa and Montreal will be well represented, and if Toronto is to maintain her reputation for supporting the A.C.A., a large camp will be necessary.The Kingston club has 60 members, and the citizens in general will give visitors a warm welcome.LACROSSE.Saturday\u2019s Matches.The last great lacrosse match was a big betting institution, but the Ottawa people did not draw as much out of Montreal as might be expected.At Gilchen\u2019s over twenty-five hundred dollars was put up, of which half remained in Montreal.One of the most successfigs betters made over three hundred dollars, and not a cent was put on the result, His betting was \u2018fool like,\u201d on games, ete.On Friday those who wish to tempt fortune can have a big opportunity, for on that evening Gilchen will sell pools in the Montreal-Toronto, Crescent-Shamrock, and Shamrock-Toronto matches.The last match is played in Chicago on Thursday next, for the silver trophy offered by the World\u2019s Fair Committee.The Crescents\u2019 Matches.The Crescents have completed all arrangements for the trip to Ottawa next week, when they will meet the Capitals in an exhibition match at the Railway Conductors\u2019 picnic, which will be held at Lansdowne Park on August 4th.They do not expect to defeat the Caps, but have evidently an idea that they will make as good a showing against thom as any other team has done this season and better than the majority have done.This trip makes them all the more anxious to defeat the Young Shamrocks in the intermediate championship match on Saturday next, in order that they may meet the Capitals in a position to say that they have not lost a match since 1891, when they first won the championship.The Young Shamrocks have a very strong combination, and the betting is 2 to 5 that the Crescents will not win three straights as they usually do, while bets have been made at even money that the Young Shamrocks will regain the title they carried for so many years.The match will be played on the Exhibition grounds, which have been put in first-class shape, and promises to be one of the most hotly contested of the season.\u2019 Toronto vs.Montreal._Saturday\u2019s match in the lacrosse cham.plonship series promises to be a first class one from every point of view, and if the practice indulged in by the Montreal team 1s any criterion of the expected struggle, it will be one well worth seeing.There are no two greater rivals than Toronto and Montreal, and especially at this stage of the series when it is quite apparent that Toronto is going to have something to say in the final stage.The way their team played against the Shamrocks on the 10th June last, is still quite fresh in the memories of lacrosse enthusiasts, and the result of that match would no doubt have been very different had it not been for the accident to Draper, their inside home man.It will be again remembered that the To- rontos gave the Capitals a good tussle in Ottawa on the 8th July, when playing four men short of their own actual strength, while they have administered overwhelmin defeats to both Montreal and Cornwall, and from what can be learned through an eyewitness of the game in Toronto, their practise is such as will enable their team to defeat Shamrocks and Capitals on the Rose.dale grounds.So far the make-up of the team has not been decided, but Sam Martin, the old reliable who has not played the last two matches, will be seen defending his flags on Saturday next, ably supported by Carmichael, Hartley, McCarthy and Campbell on the defence, while the home will be the strongest this season, including both Lennox and Draper, also Cross, Keith and ale.To offset this team, the Montreal one will also be a hard one to overcome, as the following list would readily suggest, viz.: Sheppard, Paterson, O\u2019Brien, Louson, Coulson, Reid, Garvin, Matthews, McCal- lum, Hamilton, Murphy, and J.Carlind.Arthur Hamilton and Archie Anderson are not quite recovered from their bruises yet, and will therefore not play on Saturday, but such as are best fitted to replace them have been selected and the choice will prove a good one.In all probability His Highness Yagatgi Maliarajah of Kapathala and suite, who are now in New York on their way to the World\u2019s Fair, via Montreal, will be present and the committee have already arranged to reserve the directors\u2019 gallery for the distinguished guests, and judging from the en- thusiasin displayed by His Highness the Nawab of Rampul at the junior matches last Saturday, quite an amount ef applause will issue from the private pavilion.AQUATICS.The St.Rose Regatta, A first class program is being arranged by the committee for the St.Rose regatta, which has been fixed for August 12.WATER POLO.The Longueuil Polo Club.A meeting of those interested in aquatic polo was held last night at the residence of Mr.H.Gowen, jr., when a regular club was organized and.the following gentlemen elected to the respective offices :\u2014Hon.- resident, W.H.Kirby; president, F.8.Pion: hon.-sec.treasurer, O.Sutherland; captain, H.Gowen, jr.; committee, W.Carmichael, C.Harrod.It was decided to have the practice night every Thursday at 8 5 m.As the Longucuil Boating club have kindly erected a bathing housc in the bay for the use of the polo team, it is hoped that all interested in the sport will join the new club.Mr.Geo.Smith was chosen delegate to represent the club at the meeting of the Canadian Aquatic Polo association, to be held in the Laurentian baths next Friday evening at 7.30.TURF.Races Across the Line.Winooski, Vt-, July 26.\u2014The Fort Ethan Allen club will hold a race meeting on the Winooski Driving park on Thursday and Friday, August 17 and 18.For which about $1000 will be given in

and levins are booked as the battery for the visitors.The Farnham team will be as follows: Bowen and Monohan in the points, Uunning.gham first, Page second, Smith third, Barney short, Foley centre, Impey right, Hungerford left.This is conceded the strongest team that ever represented Farn- ham on the diamond, and genuine baseball is looked forjon Friday.Although the New Pro- Yorkers have a wide reputation as ball tos- MONTREAL DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, JULY 27, 1893.- sors, Farnham backers are numerous, and anxious to place their moncy on the home team.QUOITING.A speeial meeting of the Montreal Quoiting Club will be held in the club room, Windsor street, this evening at cight o'clock.Every member of the club is particularly requested to he present, as very important business is to Le brought forward of special interest to all members.SANDOW, THE STRONG MAN.Some of the Feats He Is Now Performing In America.Strange to relate, the strongest man in the world is only 3 feet 8 inches tall and weighs only 199 pounds.His name is Eugene Sandow, and he is now astonishing American audiences with his wonderful feats of strength.He handles 3-pound dumbbells as a schoolboy would handle weights of two pounds each, He is not in the least muscle bound and turns somersaults and handsprings with the ease of a professional acrobat.One of his tricks is to turn a back somersault with his feet tied together, his eyes blindfolded and a 56-pound dumbbell in each hand.Four men carry on the stage an immense dumbbell, the bar of which is of brass and about 4 feet long, and the bells, which are hollow, 8 feet in diameter.With great effort Sandow raises the bell over his head with one arm, then dropping it suddenly catches it with both hands and places it lightly on the floor, whereupon the attendants release a man from each bell.The total weight of the apparatus and men is about 820 pounds.EUGENE SANDOW.Another feat is that of supporting with his arms and legs the weight of three horses.Sandow rests on his hands and feet with his back toward the floor.A heavy wooden platform is then placed on him, resting on his shoulders, cheat and knees.This platform is constructed to fit

wheelmen of remarkable agility.One of them is W.C.Sanger, who is now racing abroad and has an international reputation; the other is his friend, Par ker H.Sercombe, who has for several years been one of the best road riders in the United States.Sercombe seems to possess no end of pluck and endur- nce, and he is as swift as he is tireless.But for the word \u201cif\u201d a great many men would have won the recent Pullman road race at Chicago.Sercombe is one of them.He PARKER H.SERCOMBE.was riding an 18%-pound special racer and seemed destined to cross the finish line first when his light pedals broke down, and he was out of it, so far as winning the race was concerned.Despite his broken wheel, however, Ser combe would not surrender, and after a desperate struggle he succeeded in crossing the line eighth.His time was remarkably good considering the fact that bis wheel was broken.He covered the 17 miles in 56 minutes 54 setonds and was only about a minute behind Nelson, who finished first,

Sound, Ont., and who has been here the last few days, anxious to get a walk and do a performance on Calverty\u2019s § inch cable | across Niagara's gorge, has made arrangements to lease the cable and enclosures from Calverty's man in charge, and announced on handbills that his first performance would take place this afternoon at two o'clock.At that hour a heavy downpour of rain took place.After the storm passed he jumped on a passing electric car, drummed a small party from a crowd of picnickers in the park, returning to the wire at 3 o'clock.Although a stiff breeze was blowing at the time, so much so that the spectators had to hold on to their straw hats to keep them on their heads, nothing daunted the young man, with pole in hand, with a sailor suit over his tights, started out on the cable, picking his way carefully.Upon reaching the centre of the wire he sat down, pulled off the sailor jacket and pantaloons, tied them to the wire, stripped a white linen shirt over his head, dropping it into the river, then arose and continued his journey to the American side.Upon reaching the American slide, he turned around and retraced his steps towards the Canadian end.Upon reaching his sailor suit he had left tied on the wire he donned the jacket and tied the pants around his shoulders and continued his journey homeward.When about 100 feet from the Canadian end he hung with one hand and swung around the wire full length, hanging with his hands, laid down full length on his back, hung with his legs and stood up full length on the wire, just merely touching his pole that was hanging on the wire perpendicular.Afterwards he wriggled his body around his pole and then came to the end of the wire, returning with a bundle of bed clothing strapped on his back and made a bed on the slender wire, laying down full length on them, placing a counterpane on top of himself, folding his arms over his chest underneath it.The attendance was slim and he realized about ten dollars for his undertaking.Those who have seen both McDonnell and Calverty claim McDonnell does not walk so graceful and with as much confidence as Calverty, but his tricks are equally as good, if not better.SOME REASSURING WORDS.Bankers Think the United States Will Come Out all Right.New York, July 26.\u2014A good deal has been said during the past few days about the danger of the financial

the head and instantly killed yesterday afternoon at First avenue and Thirty-fourth street by Matthew Green, 54, of No.213 East Twenty-ninth street, with whom he had à qnarrel.The origin of the

of No.434 Third avenue, who saw the fight, Green kicked the prostrate man in the head.Hal- stead was dead on the street when a poliee: man arrived.Green was arrested.Reduced Iron Production.(From the N.Y.Journal of Commerce.) Within a short time there has been a remarkable closing of iron mines, and the prospects ot the blast furnaces for the next half year are discouraging, but the evidence collected and published by the bulletin of the Iron and Steel Association does not indicate that the industry has heen suffering either from contemporaneous conditions or from apprehensions of the future.The total pig iron production was just 4 per cent greater in the first six months of 1893 than the last six months of 1892, and the unsold stock of pig iron increased between December 31 and June 30 less than 1 per cent.of the production.The growth of the use of Bessemer steel is shown by the fact that though the railroad construction has not been large, the production of Bessemer pig iron has been larger than in any preceding six months.The year 1892 was one of large output, but the product of Bessemer pig in the first half of 1893 was 120,555 tons greater than in the first half of 1892, and 185,194 tons greater than in the second half of 1892.London Stock Market Demoralized London, July 26.\u2014The stock market closed in a demoralized condition.American railroad scturities were very flat.The Credit Company has suspended.lts capital was 100,000 pounds.WEAKNESS or MEN Quickly, Thoroughly, Forever Cured by a new perfected scientific method that cannot fail unless the case is beyond human aid.You feel improved the first day, feel a benefit every day ; soon know yourself a king among men in body, mind and heart.Drains and losses ended, Every obstacle to happy marricd life removed.Nerve force, will, energy, brain power, when failing or lost, are restored by this treatment.All small and weak portions of the body enlarged and strengthened.Victims of abuses and excesses, reclaim your manhood!

yesterday, and other closings were equally weak.The market has a heavy lifeless appearance and the bull side seems past all hoping for.Nothing less than the promised reaction from London and New ork would seem able to make a break in the present situation,and only war,or a break in the currency situation, can effect that.As for war, in spite of all threatening appearances, it may be put down as certain that the two greatest powers in the world are not coming to open rupture over a few quare miles of France\u2019s territory.Both have too much depending on it to run such arisk.The day's sales

Eventful Day Involving Several Bad Smashes.[Special to The Herald.] New York, July 26.\u2014This has been the most eventful and exciting day for a long time in Wall street and financial figures generally.Liquidations were more extensive than at any previous time since the present downward movement set in and the result was a decline of simply apalling proportions.The intelligence that the F:ie road had een placed in the hands of rcceivers, although by no means unexpected, was a shock to confidence and started an indiscriminate selling movement through the list.Orders were received from various quarters to sell, and many brokers who could not reach their customers in time, threw their stock overboard rather than take any further chances under the circumstances.The great break in prices, however, occurred after the announcement that H.I.Nicholas and Co, had failed.This brought the cri- tical situation of affairs right home to the brokers, and it was not long before the market drifted into a panicky condition.The excitement was not as great asin either the 1884 or 1893 panics, but the shrinkage in values was very rapid, and sales had to bo made at practically any Prices that happened to be bid.The failure of Nicholas and Co., followed up as it was by the suspension of John B.Dumont, showed plainly that the bankers were calling in loans, and this knowledge made the street nervous.The rate for money jumped up to 3-16 per diem and interest and closed at 20 per cent.per annum.The exceptional break of 57 points in Evansville and Terre Haute was due to the failure of Nicholas, who was a director in the road and had governed considerable amount of money on the stock.The house succumbed to the steady shrinkage in values, which has been going on for nionths past.The firm has been bullish for a long time and was credited with having made a great deal of money in the industrial boom.Their abilities in loans are reckoned at $1,250,- But the great break in E.& T.H., could not have occurred if other weak holders had not been forced to unload.Over $5,000,000 has been shipped by the banks to the interior cities during the past few days and there being indications of a fuller demand these institutions were compelled to call in loans.The natural result of this precipated calling of all classes of securities, onds as well as dividends and non-divid- ends paying shares being fairly slaughtered.The question of the intrinsic value cut no figure and it resolved itself into a matter of getting money and that at once.Sterling exchange was demoralized late in the day and posted rates were reduced to 4.821 and 4.844, the stringency in money call loans having at one time jumped to 40 per cent.accounts for the weakness in sterling.A calmer feeling prevailed near the close and stocks showed a disposition to rally.The \u2018\u2018panieky bird\u201d was on hand picking up bargains, while a few bears were taking profits.The pressure to sell also abated toa great extent.The market left off ragged and feverish.The big declines outside of Evans- vill and Terre Haute, which latter reacted to 80, were as follows : Deleware and Hudson, 114; Oregon Navigation, 11; Lake Shore, 8}; Lackawanna and Nickel Plate, first preferred, 84; General Electric, 7% to 40}; Jersey Central, 9; Lake Erie and Western preferred, 7; Pullman, 62; Western Union, 74; Wheeling and Lake Erie preferred, 7; from these declines.Final quotations showed a recovery of 4 to2 per cent.from the lowest.Sales were: Listed, 425,000 ; unlisted, 438,000, including Atchison 1,600; Chicago Gas, 48,000; Lackawanna & Western, 21,000; Lake Shore, 11,000; Louisville & Nashville, 12,000; Manhattan, 30,000; Northwestern, 14,000; New England, 10,- Sous Paul, 42,000,and Western Union,

was fairly large.The firm feellng of yesterday was fully maintained, and holders seemed just as strong in their ideas as.they have been at any time this season.In creamery, although we quote 21ÿc as an outside figure, it is quite certain that holders are asking more, though it is a question whether they are getting it.The general run of holders do not consider this an extreme figure, in fact it is said that something very close on to that has been paid in the country, though it is hardly probable that they could connect with shippers on the present basis of values.A local dealer to-day bought about 200 tubs in the country, and 2lc was \u2018said to be the figure, which means 21ic laid down here.This seems more within the limits of the market, and if placed to-day would likely give the seller jc or perhaps 3c profit.As to the quality of the present arrivals, we might say that the opinion of most is that it is on the whole very fair, and it is not often that gellers have to deduct anything in consequence of any defects.There is a very good demand for Western dairy, and 174e could most likely be got for selected good ; in fact, a mixed lot sold at l74c, and holders are asking 174c for medium stock.There is considerable stock held in the country, and from general aspects it looks as if factorymen were hardly satisfied with present values.There is not a, great deal of Townships available here, and what few holders there are, are asking top prices.19c to 194c might be quoted as a fair idea for actual business.Cables are said to be about the same, and exporters are buying up quite a little.Shippers in New York are not doing a great deal, and most of them are holding off to await developments.Local values are: Creamery, finest, June.211c to 213c Townships.19 ¢c

dealers are paying, however, it is quit certain that they have to pay full prices, as holders generally are taking a pretty firm stand.There is quite a good enquiry for colored, and as far as we can learn, it looks as if the market on this grade was cut pretty close, in fact the same might be said of white, but on the whole, stocks of the latter are possibly larger.On finest colored goods, holders are mostly all talking 9ic, hardly see their way clear to give that, and for actual business 9ÿc is scemingly about the idea.For white the situation is the same, buyers holding 93c and holders wanting 9%c so we make this range.Cables are very sick and limits are verv close.The public cable to-day repeated 45s.Cables to New York also quote that figure.Values are: Finest Ontario white.lc to

make a clean breast of it, and reveal our relations with the Hon, W.B.Ives, It is of course well understood that that Hon, gentleman is very susceptible {o flattery! and, knowing his weakness in that

think of it, the Richmond Lyre was at that picnic.Cannot it tell us who the editor was?The Gazette does not attempt to seriously deny the Guardian\u2019s allegations of a few weeks ago, namely, that the Gazette iscontrolled in its political articles by Hon.W.B.Ives for the sum of $50.00 (fifty dollars) a month.It does, however, insinuate a nasty charge against Mr.Jones of the Guardian.I amin a position to deny that Mr.Jones was at the Weedon picnicreferredto.He washere in Richmond I happened to call upon him that day, and asked him why he had not gone.He was unable to go owing to the absence of his business manager, Mr.J.A.Dalton.Mr.Jones is rightly indiga- nant at the coarse manner in which he is being attacked by the Gazette, but he cannot help laughing at the blundering way it

Personal Property\u2014Think the Time fs Not Yet Ripe for Single Tax on Land Values, The Local Government of New Bruus- wick lately appointed a Commission of three members to collect information and make suggestions on the subject of Municipal Taxation, The secretary was Mr.W.B.Chandler and he has just issued an interim report, from which we take the following interesting particulars : On several points the commission considers the present law of Ontario superior to that now in force in New Brunswick, and recommends that the latter be changed accordingly.The following are the changes recommended in this connection : 1.The exemption of moneys invested in mortgages, and that only the interest received from such invested moneys be assessed as personal property.2.The exemption of ail horses, cattle, sheep and swine owned by farmers.8.The total exemption of the incomes of merchants or other persons derived from capital liable to assessment.4.As to vessel property, that only the income derived from it be assessed.5.That municipal councils be given the option of imposing a \u2018\u2018business tax.\u201d The report contains significant indications of the growing importance of the single tax movement.Two references are made to the question.In their opening paragraph the commissioners say : \u2018The commission have been favored with much information upon the so- called single tax system of assessment from persons interested in the movement in the United States and in Ontario, where the agitation in favor of this system is apparently gaining ground and is being very zealously promoted.The commission do not think that the time is ripe, at all events in this province, for putting in practice the principles of the single tax system, but they clearly realize that the elaborate attempts made to tax all personal property, and especially such personal property as moneys invested in real or personal securi- tics, as mortgages, bonds, notes of hand, and the like, in many acts relating to assessment in the Provinces of Canada and in the United States, have altogether failed to carry out the intentions of the framers of the several acts.\u201d The report proceeds to express the opinion that whilst personal property cannot under present circumstances Pe altogether relieved from taxation, yet: \u201cThe opinion of the Commission is that an attempt should be made to modify the present Assessment Act in the direction of increasing rather than lessening the amount of personal property exempted from assessment, 80 as to assist as much as possible the farming class in this province, upon whom the burden of taxation is necessarily heavy, owing to the fact that afew farmers have property other than that which is open to view, readily ascerlained and impossible to conceal from the assessor, and to avoid as much as possible the inquisitorial features of every system of assessment which aims to tax all property of whatever nature.\u201d The report deals at considerable length with the question of taxing mortgages, andtakes strong ground against it.One point wade is that experience has shown thatsuch tax will always be shifted from the lender to the borrower, either by a covenant that the latter shall pay taxes or Ly an increased rate of interest.On the general principle the Commissioners have this to say : \u201cThe principle of the exemption of moneys invested in mortgages has been adopted 1n Maryland, in Massachusetts, New Jersey and the Province of Ontario, and was strongly recommended by such an authority as the Honorable David A, Wells, when a member of the New York Taxation Commission, The Commission recommended the exemption of moneys invested in mortgages and that only the interest received from such invested moneys be assessed as personal property.One of the strongest arguments in favor of this exemption is the fact that it is almost impossible to discover the amount invested by any one person in mortgages apart from whatever information may be furnished by the individual assessed.\u2018When it is considered that the lender will always protect himself against assessment either by an increased rate of interest or by the covenant of the mortgagor to pay all taxes upon the property mortgaged and the money lent, iv is manifest that the exemption of such investments is, at all events, in tavor of the borrower, and encourages the investment of money in mortgages within the Province, These and other considerations have induced the Commission to jecommend this change in the present Ww, In their concluding paragraph the Commission briefly summarize matters, and they have this further remark to make: \u201cThe commission have found the subject of assessment an ever widening and extending one.It is one whichis now engaging the attention of many persons in the United States and Canada, who have given and are now giving the matter special study and attention, and even in England there 18 a strong movement in favor of a change in the principles of taxation now existing so as to attack the ground rent system in the City of London.The increasing number of persons advocating the single tax principle shows that final results upon the question of assessment have been by nomeans yet attained,\u201d \u2018The Toronto Evening Star comments on the report as follows : \u2018Reading the details of the way in which the Commission have been struggling with intricate and complicated details of efforts to get at the un-get-at- able\u2014that is, to tax capital in its protean and shifting forms, and to do so with fairness\u2014one realizes forcibly the over- whehning advantage of a system which sweeps away all this cumbersome mass of botheration, and reverts to the simple principle of collecting all revenue from the value which attaches to land from the mere working presence of population, \u2018Land lies out of doors, and cannot be hidden.\u2019 \u201d Two Ways of Looking at

I believe there is Henderson\u2019s for lumber, the Royal Electric \" Light Co.\u2019s, Spragge\u2019s, De Lorimier\u2019s and St, Louis\u2019.I«o not know the amounts, but they are considerable.\u201d Mr.W.8.Gardiner, machinists\u2019 supplies agent, who had furnished material to the Department, was the next witness.In reply to Mr.Douglass he said that he considered the prices he had charged as fair and reasonable.At the opening of the afternoon session Mr.Archibald requested the commissioners to call and examine the several foremen and timekeepers who had been employed on the Curran bridge.He thought that the commission would not have fulfilled its functions if it failed to take the evidence of these men as to the manner in which the work had been done.Mr.Douglass, replying, said that there were several witnesses yet to be called, and if Mr.Archibald desired to summon others in rebuttal he was at liberty to do so.Mr.Parizeau was then called in, and produced the statement which he had been asked to prepare, of materials used in the box drain at Cote St.Paul.He was examined at length by Mr.Douglass and Mr.Atwater on the items contained in this statement, but nothing of importance was developed, Mr.Buillarger, time-keeper, who has already figured in the early part of this investigation, was the next witness.He was shown a list of employes charged as having been engaged ab work on repairs at a break in the canal above the C.P.R.bridge, and v-as asked if the list was correct.In reply witness said that he was confident there were not as many men there as the list showed.He then produced a book which had been kept by him and which showed that 13 men had been engaged at the repairs.These mens\u2019 time represented an outlay of $39.44.This return had been made to him \u201c by the lockmaster, James Henry, who was in charge there.Witness sald he was afterwards ordered by Mr.Kennedy to make alterations in this account of time.\u2018These alterations made the time show a cost of $482.69, or $443.25 more than the actual cost.Mr.Vanier\u2014\u201c Why did you make these changes at Mr.Kennedy's request ?\u201d Witness\u2014*\u2018I presumed that as superintendent he had his reasons for wanting it done.He told me to do it and I obeyed.\u201d \u2018But you were aware that many of the men whose names appear on this pay list were never employed at these repairs 2\u201d \u201cYes ; I knew that, but, as I said before, I was merely obeying orders.I was always ordered to make charges in the pay sheets, and was never allowed to make them correctly.\u201d \u201cDid you know of any men being discharged for other reasons than on account of unsatisfactory work ?\u201d \u201c\u201c Yes: I know of several being dismissed because they lived at Cote St.Paul instead of in Montreal.At least that was the reason assigned by Mr.Kennedy.Some of them offered to remove to Montreal, but Mr.Kennedy would not have them.Mr.Archibald then took the witness in hand and endeavored to show that he was guilty of theft in retaining the books in which lie had kept the mens\u2019 time.\u201d These books, said Mr.Archibald, were the property of the Department and witness had stolen them.Mr.Archibald also thought that witness showed a wonderful amount of faith in making oath to the correctness of acconnts merely on the word of a lock- master.Baillarger\u2019s time books and accounts were once more brought into requisition and he and Mr.Archibald spent the remaining hour of the session in a spirited though not particularly edifying discussion as to their accuracy, the witness's memory and other subjects of minor importance, SENATOR DRUMMOND\u2019S DENIALS.Senator Drummond writes to The Herald, giving an explicit denial to the statement by Mr.Parent that he had heard that Government teams had been engaged hauling stone to macadamize a road to his sugar re- refinery.Senator Drummond says: \u201cNo road was ever made to the sugar refinery by Government employees.\u201d News Notes From Sarnia.Sarnia, Ont,, July 26.\u2014The parents of Albert E.Wilson, the person held for the murder of, Miss Marshall, of Warwick, visited him in the county jail to-day.The scene was very effecting, the prisoner seemed greatly depressed by the visit, The new set of tubular bells presented by Mrs.Paul Salter to St.George Church, Sarnia, have been put.in position, and à song and dedication service was held this evening, at which Canon Davis, of London, and other prominent clergyvinen, assisted.The steain barge White Star caught fire opposite here to-day, znd the after cabin was destroyed.With the assistance of the Port Huron fire brigade and steamer Conger, the fire was put out after considerable damage being done to the boat and machinery.The New Trolley Line.The newly inaugurated direct connection between the West End, the Post Office and Hirsch\u2019s (immediately opposite) will he found a great convenience for gentlemen desirous of procuring a good.cigar before going up town in the evening, + of many meets.A SUCCESS.Much Excitement Caused By the Commercial Bank Failure.Not [Special Correspondence of The Herald.) Winnipeg, July 24.\u2014Once more the gala week, the six days of gay festivities, the MONTREAL DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, JULY 27, 1893.PERSONAL.Mr.J.Metcalfe, Toronto, is at the City Geo.J.Dewar, of Ottawa, is registered at the Windsor.Dr.Walker of Hamilton, is among the arrivals at the Balmoral.Dr.P.A.Delisle ; registered from East Angus.visits from country cousins, the shopping - and all the other stereotyped appendages of the summer exhibition have pafsed and life again assumes its normal conditions, The exhibition was a success beyond a peradventure; but it is doubiful it next year\u2019s show is held at the same season of the year if like success will attend it, tion entries were not in point of number as numerous as last year, excellent program of attractions in pail hat the exhibition was held too carly in the season was painfully apparent in the lack of a display of farm produce; but what there was could not but convince visitors of the wonderful producing capabilities of the soil of the great Northwest.Magniti- cent weather favored the fair, and the crowds which thronged through the turnstiles for six days in succession were the largest that ever gathered at any point of attraction in western Canada.efforts will be made to make the next exhibition cover a wider field than heretofore.Eastern manufacturers will Le asked to make displays with the object of giving the fair a Dominion character.And what city has a better oppertunity than Winnipeg, situated as it is midway between the Atlantic and Pacific, to get together the results of labor thoroughly representative of the whole Dominion.The crops are still safe and the outlook more than ordinarily hopeful for a heavy \u2018harvest.Bright sunshine and heat has succeeded a month of rain and a contiuua- tion of favorable elements for three weeks will see the self-binder busy in fields of golden grain.Only a few points in the province raport a paucity of rain; more report a superabundance and in some districts it will be almost impossible to secure hay simply because it is growing in water.Of course the fnext question to agitate the minds of farmers will be that of price, but divine providence and bulls and bears at Chicago will settle that question for them.Ii prices are low and freight rates remain ag they are realizations on this year\u2019s crop will be low even if the crop is large, but looking at the bright side of the situation overproduction will be better than dearth, for the farmers cannot starve if their grain- eries are full of wheat\u2014even if unmarketable at a paying price.In view of the present situatfon the report that the Hudson\u2019s Bay railway scheme is to take a rest for a time owing to the money stringency is unwelcome news.It must appear to many that a rest has been forced on the projectors rather early in the game.Free trade and a Hudson\u2019s Bay railway is the platform now adopted by many as o panacea for all our ills, and a very substantial platform, it is, even if from the present outlook a little difficult of realization.Winnipegers are not at all prone to boast of the fuct that their city has furnished the first and only case of bank failures in Canada during the existing financial stress.That it was unfortunate, no one will deny, but among the sound business men no great expressions.of regret are heard.The small dealers are the class principally involved.All sorts of rumors have been in circulation and the appointment of three liquidators, representing different interests with counsel has causec general dissatisfaction among depositors and shareholders on the ground of extra costs.The more recent developments, the findin of fraudulent returns to the government and the disappearance of Rokeby, the ex-man- ager, have caused somewhat of a furore.Rokeby, who made the fake returns displayed a remarkable degree of nonchalance.He was playing cricket on the day the warrant for his arrest was issued and although given a \u2018\u2018tip\u201d stayed with the game and rolled up the biggest.score for his side.In the evening lhe left for the boundary.Apparently so little effort was made to secure him that the impression is gaining credence that there is a \u2018\u2018darky in the fence\u201d and the Provincial Police are bein roundly censured for having let the bird escape.Winnipeg hitherto devoid of public parks is about to cast off the slur upon The exhibi- !

This fancy work is accepted by their merchants in exchange for store goods, but under the provisions of the business tax it would undoubtedly be subject to assessment.They would thus be paying a double tax, which would be essentially unjust.Mr.Jocks hopes that on the return of Mr.Daly a satisfactory settlement of the difficulty may be made.They Will Unite.\u201cUnity is strength,\u201d especially in Odd- fellowship.This was the theme of a very important meeting of the Grand Lodge of the Montreal district of Oddfellows, held at the Montreal lodge rooms, Point St.Charles, last night.There were present two prominent delegates from the Canadian District of Oddfellows of Toronto.They were Grand Master Harry Collins and Grand Secretary Fleming, both of whom spoke at considerable length on the subject of unity of the district with the Montreal district of Odüfellows.This is a delicate point in secret societies, but one which tends to the broadest fellowship, because these two branches have been acting to each other for years; much like competition business men in the same line, At the last meeting of the Montreal district the resolu- ; tion of union was carried, while the Toronto Brethren had already also carried à similar one, so that the motion was carried almost unanimously at last night's meeting.They now await the sanction of the direct- is at the St.James ; { .! \"ors in England, the governors of the order, i betore practical amalgamation for the Domn- | inion can be realized.Among the local Odd Fellows present last night were Grand Master Burrith, !
