FORSTREET RAILWAY JOBS.AND THE COMPANY GOT A FRAN- CIKISE FROM THE CITY, Extraordinary Fvidence at the Street Railway Building Collapse Investigation, Some startling evidence was given at yesterday nfternoon\u2019s sitting of the Street Railway building disaster investigation as to the manner in which the contracts and tenders were manipulated.Five of the contractors were then aldermen, and one of them was allowed to amend bis tender twice after the other tenders had been opened.The President of the Street Rail way Company was the final authority as to who should receive the contracts.E.C.Hopkins again took the stand, and was examined by R.D.MeGibbon, Q.C., who represents the Attorney-General.His firm was composed of himself and his father, and the first communication he had with the Street Railway Company was when he was asked to get out plans for the building.Ie got the orders from one of the direetors.\u201cHad vou communication with any of the directors?\u2019 \u201cYes, we had communication with Mr.Cunningham us to the laying out of the building, and with the comptroller, Mr.Hill, as to the arrangement of the offices.\u201d \u201c\\Vhich one, if any, of the ofticers of the Company did you communicate with during the progress of the plans?\u201d \u201cMr, Cunningham and Mr.Hill.\u201d \u201cDid you have a conversation with Mr.Lusher ?\u201d \u201c1 did, as to the payment.\u201d \u201cBut the general supervision was left to you?\u201d \u201cYes.\u201d \u201cYou were not supposed to report to any particular officer with regard to the erection of the building ?\u201d \u201cNo.\u201d \u201cDid you receive any written or verbal instructions from any officials 7\u201d \u201cNone.\u201d Tenders had been received for the work to be done, but these were not advertised for.\u201c How were thoy obtained ?\u201d \u201cBy notifying a certain number of contractors.\u201d \u2018* Who selected the contractors to be notified ¥\u201d ** Ourselves, with the assistance of the Board of Directors.\u201d \u201cWith which member of the Board did you confer, or was it at a meeting of the Board 7\u201d \u201cI cannot say.\u201d ** Where did the conference take place ?\u201d \u201cPartly in our office and partly in the Company\u2019s office.\u201d Witness read a list of the contractors selected, all of whom tendered.For the there were: W.D.Turner and Co., 834,789; Plante aud Dubuc, $35,800; Peter Lyall and Son, $45,200; Barbeau and Fournier, 81,200; J.I.St.\"Louis, $31,700.Yor brick-luying alone there were: J.Bumbray, $9,093; and for brick and terracotta there were: J.Brunet and Son, §27,- 000; T.W.Peel, $27,040; Chas.Thackeray and Co., $29,400; A.Cowan, $33,120.For cau peutry aud joinering the contractors were: Simpson and Peel, $15,720; James Shearer, $18,469; Grothe Freres.$19,028; J.Robert and Fils, $16,700.Tenders for the ironwork came from Win, Rodden and Co., §7,900; H.R.Ives and Co., $9,320; Wn.Clendinneng and Sons, $10,205; E.Chante- loup, $12,900; Dominion Bridge Company, $9,960 minus $440.A list was identified ag having been made out in L.J.Forget\u2019s office, indicating the contractors whom the Street Railway Company thought should be accepted.Those marked were Plante and Dubuc for the masonry, Brunet and Son for the brickwork, Robert and Fils tor the woodwork, the Dominion Bridge Company for the ironwork, and Enoch James, the Montreal Rooting Company, for the rooting.\u201cHow was the diflerence ot $440 in the Bridge Compuny\u2019s tender made up ?\u201d \u201cBy the use of 73 inch girders instead of 8 inch.\u201d \u201cWas the Bridge Company the original tenderer for the iron-work ¥\u201d\u2019 \u201cYea, \u201d \u201cWhat work did Cendinneng do ?\u201d \u2018He was sub-contractor to the Dominion Bridge Company.He supplied the col- uns,\u201d The carpenter was to raise the metal into position, but it had to be fixed by the the Dominion Bridge Company.T'he changetrom à brick wall to columns was shown on the plans when the men tendered.Mr.Hopkins was in constant supervision, and saw the brick walls laid in lime, mortar or cement, as necessary.The bonding of the wall wus effected usually every fifth or sixth course.Drick and mortar were of good quality.\u201cWhose duty was it to sce see that the contractors carried out the terms of their contract ?\u201d *\u2018Mine, as far as possible.\u201d Granite blocks 20 inches by 24 were to be put in the wall where the buses of the columns and joinings of beams were to come, In regard to the larger beams Iron plates were substituted for the granite blocke.The dimensions of these plates were 17ÿ in.by 178 an.by 1£ in., und were to be bolted to the bases of the columns, The change was decided upon immediately after the iron work was started, and wus made because his experience taught him it was advisable.Some reduction was made in the amount of the mason\u2019s contract on this account.Witness did not communicate the chunge to the Company be- Cause it was not necessary.The Dominion Bridge Company wished to ave some changes made in the dimensions, and wished to take over the entire construe- tion from the carpenters.Mr.Gravel said they were better acquainted with that class of work than the architects, and were responsible for it.Witness tried to get plans of the work as amended from the Bridge T.pany, but did not succeed.«How much were you being paid?\u201d : l am not prepared to say at present.\u201d \u2018You were being paid to superintend the work, and you allowed a contractor to go on without knowing in what particulars they were going to differ from your specifications?\u201d \u201cOn the conditions that they assumed responsibility for the change.\u201d ; Was there no undertaking or guarantee Tom the Bridge Company other than that Contained in the contract?\u201d \u201cThe contract was amply sufficient and inding, © sit, So on your theory you are entitled to own and let the contractors go on as ey like?\u201d That is not my theory.I attend as Muchas I can and exact that guarantee clause, \u201d ni, Did you personally consider the short.ig of the girders dangerous?\u201d did not consider the matter at all oti Mr, Gravel said they were too short.I told him if be had any doubt to get others, but he said that a good backing of cement would make them all right.\u201d * What was your commission paid you for generally ?\u201d .¢ Plans, specifications, drawing up contracts and general supervision,\u201d Mr.Geoffrion got the witness to admit that when he referred 10 James Ross as being connected with both the Bridge Company and the Street Railway he was not aware that Mr, Ross was not connected with the latter when the contracts were awarded.To Mr.Lemieux he stated his opinion that the accident would not have happened if the weights had been adhered to.In reply to Mr.Greenshields he said that the Dominion Bridge Company was not in- eluded in the firms asked to tender, but Mr.Forget afterward sent for him and asked him to send them a notice to tender.Mr.Greenshields\u2014* Were the other tenders opened and the amounts known to the Street Railway Company then ?\u201d \u201cThat I cannot say.\u201d \u2018Are you aware that Plante and Dubue got two chances to amend their tender after the others were opened 2?I believe so.\u201d \u2018\u201c Was their first tender for about §39,- 000 ?\u201d \u2018\u201c About that sum.\u201d \u2018In the acceptance of these tenders whose word was final ?\u201d \u201cMr.Forget's ; the president.\u201d \u2018\u201c About the time the tenders were sent out the company was anxious to get a contract from the city of Montreal ?\u201d ** They were.\u201d *\u201c Out of the contractors whose tenders were accepted how many were aldermen of the city of Montreal at that time ?\u201d \u201c\u201c There were five.\u201d The Coroner\u2014\u201cDo vou think that a sufficient excuse for Mr.Hopkins?\u201d Mr.Greenshields\u2014I don\u2019t want to reflect on any one, but to show that the architect was not in the same position as is usual.1t is a most unusual thing for an employer to take matters out of the hands of the architect.\u201d Mr.Hopkins\u2019 examination was then completed, and the investigation was adjourned until this afternoon at 2 o\u2019clock, ROBBED OF $6,000, C.M.Wood, of Maxville, Ont, Held Up by Two Men, Apple Hill, Ont., Nov, 23.\u2014C.H.Wood, of Maxville, while driving from Apple Hill to Maxville to-night was held up about a quarter of a mile from Maxville and robbed of §6,000.It was apparently done by two men.Mr.Wood came from Morrisburg to-day, where he drew the amount out of bank to pay patrons of his cheese factories, and these evidently followed him from some point on the way or from Morrisburg.WESTWOOD MURDER, Some More Facts About the Prfsoner Clara Ford.Toronto, Nov.23.\u2014Nothing new has been made public officially in the West- wood shooting case, but there seems now no room to doubt that the rumors of a confession on the part of Clara B.Ford, the alleged murderess, are well founded, and that the declaration of guilty mode by her on her first appearance in court was not a slip of the ordinary kind, but a deliberate admission of guilty, changed to one of innocence when she saw the vexation of her counsel.The police will not admit they have a confession, but do not positively deny having it.Meantime the motive of the crime has been no doubt discovered.It appears that young Westwood, the murdered lad, knew the prisoner was in the habit of masquerading as a mun in the suburb of Purkdale and knew also her record, without however being aware of her passionate temper or her general hatred of men.Ie met her on the lake shore road one night last summer aud offered her violence.She threw him off with ease, being far stronger then he, but vowed to be revenged.She kept her word by shooting him on the doorstep of his father's house.Numerous sensational stories are told of the prisoner and her career in St.Paul, where she figured as a man.LONDON SCHOOL BOARD.Progressists Gain Six Seats, but Ree main in the Minority.London, Nov.23.\u2014The result of the elec- tiou tor members of the London School Board will not be known until late.Miss Davenport Hill has defeated the Duke of Newcastle in the city by 8,000 votes.The Duke of Newcastle, although beaten by Miss Hill, gets in the School Board, as he takes the second seat.The poll was the heaviest on record.Formerly the Moderates had the largest aggregate vote, but now the position is reversed, - the Progressists polling 817,632, and the Moderates 671,734.The latter, however, still retain a majority of the seats, holding 29 against the Pro- gressists\u2019 26.The Progressists gained six seats, KNIGHTS OF LABOR.New Orleans, La., Nov.23\u2014The Knight# of Labor wound up their session to-day- This morning a resolution was adopted pro testing against the issue of new bonds by United States Goverument.A resolution favoring the amalgamation of all brewing organizations into the association of the Knights of Labor was referred to the Executive Board.On motion of Mr.Sovereign it was unanimously agreed to reduce the salary of the Master Workman from $3,5C0 to $2,500 per annum.The General Assembly then adjourned, to meet in Washington in November of next year.Steamer Probably Lost.St.Johns, Nfld., Nov, 23\u2014At six o'clock Monday night a steamer passed Cape Rate, bound towards this port.Two hours afterwards she was sighted by a fishing vessel bound in the same direction.Nothing has been heard of her since, though four days have how elapsed since she was last sighted.On Monday night a hurricane swept over this coast with almost un recedented severity.Much anxiety is felt concerning the steamer.False Fire Alarm Again, A false alarm from Box 144 was rung last night at 10 minutes after 11 o'clock.This box has been called several times recently, and the miscreant has not been caught, although it is expected that the boys sentenced by the Recorder yesterday have companions who continue to amuse themselves at this fire alarm business, Lieut.-Col.Stevenson said last night that he was glad the Recorder had decided to punish ringers of false alarms most severely.At 15 minutes to 1 o'clock this morning another false alarm was rung from No.17.As this box has been rung dozens of times lately, the crime of calling out the brigade for nothing grows serious.The Russell, Ottawa, One of the leading hotels of the Dom- fnion, Unsurpassed in

AND PARIS BANKERS, BROUGHT DOWN IN THE MOUSE OF ASSEMBLY.Mr, Mall\u2019s Letter Which Was Not Fore warded\u2014short Sitting of the House \u2014 Sessional Notes.Quebec, Nov.23.\u2014It way nearly four o'clock when the Speaker took the chair today.There was a bare quorum present.The first motion introduced was by Mr.Desjardins, of Kamouraska, who asked that Monday be fixed for the consideration of his bill to reduce the indemnity of members of the Assembly to 8500.The motion was received with derisive cries and exclamations of \u2018* withdraw.\u201d In answer to a question, Hon.Mr.Beau- bien said that it was not the intention of the Government to give & bonus to encourage the making of cheese in winter.In laying before the House the correspondence relating to the complaint of Mr.Joseph Palliser, advocate, against Magistrate Loupret, of St.Hyacinthe, the Attorney-General stated that the plaintiff\u2019s recourse was before the Courts, Mr.Palliser had not obtained sulisfaction in a prosecution for assault.At the request of Mr.Dechene the correspondence concerning the Beauport Asylum and the Quebec Exposition will be laid before the House.Asked if he was going to present his bill for the re-organization of the courts, the Attorney-General replied that he would make his intentions known at the proper time, The House adjourned after half an hour's session, LDAN CORRESPONDENCE, The correspondence which took place between Hon.Mr.Taillon and the Banque de Paris and the Credit Lyonnais was brought down this afterncon.Mr.Hall\u2019s name appears only only once in connection with a letter which he drew up but which was never sent.It was Mr.Taillon which opened the ne- gociatious on the 7th of May by asking the Institutions above named to make an offer for $5,000,000 of bonds, bearing four or three and one half per cent interest.The banks refused to tender on these couditions and at the sane time questioned the legal power of the Government to borrow without the authorization of a special act.Finally on the 28th of June the banks offered to take 28,369,000 francs in three per cent.bonds in payment for the 21,277,000 francs of four per cent bonds, the ofler being equivalent to 75.These three per cent bonds were to be repaid in the course of sixty years by anuual instalments of 1,025,074 francs covering capital and interest.On the 13th of July Mr.l'aillon wrote: \u201cI find that far from being equivalent to four per cent.at pur, your offer imposes a result which is inferior to the sale of our bonds at 94.\u201d Mr.Hall was then treasurer and it was evidently him who drafted the following letter to break off the negotiations with the Paris bankers: (Draft of letter to Banque de Paris and to Credit Lyonnais.) \u201cI duly received your cables of and on the 13th instant I cabled you that I was writing you.I have also your cable of the 16th instant and note what you say.To sum up, I find your proposition is to redeem the 21,277,000 of francs outstanding, that the Province should issue bonds to the extent of 28,369,500 francs, redeemable in sixty years by sixty annual drawings, and on which the interest would be 815,- 085 francs, and the sinking fund 173,- 989 francs, or a total annual payment or drawing ot 1,025,074 francs.In your first cable you state this is a transaction equivalent to a loan at 4 per cent.at par.In your cable of the 16th you make a comparison with a loan at 4 per cent.at 94, and that Jon this latter basis you state it would take a capital of 22,635,106 francs to redeem the 21,277,000 francs outstanding.If so, Ifind that on these latter bonds of 22,635,106 at 4 per cent., the annual interest charge would be 905,404 francs and the sinking fund 95,109 francs, or a total payment of 1,000,513 francs that we would have to pay during the period of 60 years.The difference then between these figures of annual payments would be as between a loan of 28,369,500 francs at 3 per cent.redeemable by 60 drawings, and a loan of 22,635,106 francs at 4 per cent.in 60 drawings, is 24,561 francs a year for a period of 60 years.Converting thislatter into asingle payment at 4 per cent., it would form a sum of 555,655 francs, or at 3 per cent.it would be 679,739 francs which the Province would have to pay more under your proposition than for a loan at 4 per cent.at 94 also payable in 60 years.It was after examining the matter that I therefore cabled you on the 13th inst., and which I now beg to confirm, that the Province do not accept your proposition.\u201d Instead of sending this letter Mr.Taillon wrote on the 23rd of July to Mr.Henri Thors, Paris : \u201cYour despatch of the 15th does not impart anything new, except that if we should sell 4 per cent.bonds at 94 it would be necessary to issue for 22,635,106 francs of them to reimburse the 21,277,000 francs, which shall become due on the 16th of July, 1895, which would make theannual interest charge 906,404 francs, while the interest at 3 per cent.on the proposed conversion only represents!an anuual payment of 851,085 francs.Under these conditions I could not advise His Honor the Licutenant-Governor toapprove of a loan at this rate.If you have other offers to make, either for the purchase of our 4 per cent.without a sinking fund at a price which would not be below 96 net, or for our 3 per cent at a price not below 78 net without a sinking fund nor participation in the benefit accruing from the issue, we shall consider them with, I hope.chances of arriving at a satisfactory conclusion.Meanwhile, as all this correspondence is causing considerable delay, and as we must see to the utilization of the $7,000,000 which the Canadian Pacific will pay to us on the 19th of December next, according to the notice which it has given us, as well as that of the $2,394,000 which the Federal Government owes us and the payment of which hus just been authorized byan Act of Parliament, Iwould request you to let me know your decision, as soon as possible, because we have resolved, if we cannot come to an agreement with you to avail ourselves of the first clause of our contract of July last which authorizes the Government of the Province te redeem its bonds at par, with interest at anytime after the 15th of July, 1894, by giving three months\u2019 notice to the Banque de Paris and the Credit Lyonnais.We wish to give this notice no later than the 15th of August next.That will dispense with carrying out thefthird and fourthfclauses of that contract, becsuse I am in a position to assure you that before the 15th of January, 1895, we shall prove to you cur unquestionable abil- ity to redeem the 42,554 bonds of the 15th of July, on the date they become due.\u201d Inanswer to this letter, the banks wrote as follows: \u201cParis, Aug.9th, 1894.\u2018Mr.Minister\u2014We hava had the honor of receiving vour letter of July 23vd last, addressed to Mr, J.H.Thors, We have read with interest the considerations that You develop and the calculations that you have established upon the different types of loans, but, without wishing to prolong the discussion, and understanding that your intention is to contract a loan, repayable all at once without a progressive siuk- ing fund, we have formulated the following propositions in the telegram that we addressed you on that 8th of this month : \u201cPremier Taillon, Quebec, replying to your letter of the 28th of July, we advance from 75 to 78 our offer of the 27th of June for 3 per cents redeemable at such time as you shall fix at the maximum 60 years without progressive sinking fund.Province will not share in the profits of the issue and shall pay us one per cent.for expenses.New bonds will bear interest from Oct.15th.On account of vacation, issue and conversion not being practicable before October, our offer would be annulled if, before signature of contract the French three per cent.\u2019s fall to par or Quebec four\u2019s to 98 ex-dividend prompt reply.\u2018\u2018Parisbas Credionais.\u201d \u201cIt is well understood that in case these propositions should be accepted by your Government and the contract signed in the second halË of September, the conversion not being possible to be proposed to the holders sooner than the first days of October, the call for the redemptiou of the 1893 bonds, which would not have been presented for conversion, could not be made before the 15th January, 1893, by adding to the capital of 500f.the interest for the quarter falling due on that date, viz, a total of 510f.The Province would naturally have to pay upon the converted bonds the interest from July 15 to Oct.15 and it would owe us the difference of three months interest between that of the new rente and that payable upon the non- converted bonds, called for redemption on January 15, 1595.All the other conditions stipulated in our letter of June 28 last, which are not cancelled or modified by the terms of our telegram of the 8th inst., and those of the present letter, remain unaltered.You will have understood, Mr.Minister, that before the six weeks delay which must elapse up to the moment of the signature of the contract, if you accept our proposition, we could not leave the Province such a long option without a counter-stipu- lation, respecting the right to withdraw in the event, resulting from unforeseen and unfortunate circumstances, the French 3 per cents.falling to par or the Quebec fours to 98 ex-dividend.We hope that you will decide to give our offer as early a reply as possible, and we beg you to accept, Mr.Minister.CREDIT LYONNAIS.(Signed) A.Mazeras, Director-General.(Signed) Banque de Paris, et des Pays Bas.\u201d The discussion in the Cabinet, as well as the correspondence with Paris continued for several wecks more.In the middle o the discussion is the following message.\u201cQuebec, 21st August, 1894.\u2018\u2019To Hon.L.Taillon, Montreal, \u201cPlease mail Governor, Windsor Hotel, copy of last letter to Mr.Thors.(Signed) JOHN S.HALL.\u201d Finally, on the 29th' of August, 1894, Premier Taillon cabled the following proposition: \u2018Are disposed to submit to my Council your offer as made in the cable of the 8th of August, except that we do not want the interest to run until the redemption or conversion of the old bonds, possession of the new one to begin from the same date.Ido not wish to pay double interest except difference between tliree and four,that is that we would accept your net offer for 3 per cent at 78 for the amount necessary tu redeem the debentures of 1893, without other commission than one per ceut for all costs, condition as to the fall of French securities or Quebec four per cents out of the question.\u201d To this the Banks replied on September 4 by cable, accepting the conditions and saying, \u2018\u2018you can therefore submit to your council offer to take 27,632,467 francs capital loan of the Province, three per cent, net price 77, bearing interest from 15th December.\u201d Three weeks more elapsed and Mr.Taillon cabled: \u201cMontreal, 25th September, 1894.«A.Thors, 3 Rue d\u2019Autin, Paris.\u201cDecision of the

been pretended that Mr.Hall has not been treated with due consideration in this cireumstance, and that he had been deceived ?Were there any reasons to justify the Government in breaking off the

BOTH SIDES LOST HEAVILY, Description of the Chief Naval Station of China\u2014-The Construction of Its Docks nnd Fortitie cations, Chee Foo, Nov.23.\u2014Despatches have been received here stating that the Japan\u201d ese captured Port Arthur on Wednesday last after cighteen hours\u2019 fighting.The Chinese ave said to have defended their position with bravery, the loss on both sides being heavv.Port Arthur, the native name of which is Lu-Shun-Kou, is the chief naval station of Chinu.Eleven or twelve ycars ago it was simply a good wind-bound harbor for the junks that traded along the coast, carrying timber from the Yalu River to ports iu the Gulfs of Pei-Chi-Li and Liaotung, or those of a larger class from the South, en route to New Chwang and West Chin-Chou.At that time the village consisted of about sixty to eighty mud houses, with a few shops, and three or four inns, which afforded accommodation to travellers to and from the North.The port is almost surrounded by ranges of hills, varying from three hundred to tifteen hundred feet in height,the valleys between being well cultivated.The town at the present tine has increased to nearly one thousand houses and shops, and exclusive of the garrison, the population is estimated at six thousand.There ave two principal and smaller native banks, two large temples and two large theatres of re- Cent construction, In 1881 1t Wus finally decided to constrnet a dock and refitting basin there.After more than one Yailure the work was given to foreign contractors, and in the early part of 1887 a French company secured a contract to construct the necessary works needed for a naval dockyard.At the end of 1890 the contractors completed the task entrusted to them.The entrance to the port was deepened, and a basin constructed inside with a depth of 25 feet at low water.The port contains spacious wharves and quays fitted with steam cranes and connected by a railway with the workshops.There is a dock over four hundred feet long, having twenty-five fcet.of water on its sills at low tide, which can be emptied in a few hours by means of a steam pump.There is also a smaller dock suitable for torpedo boats.The foundries and workshops contain the most modern machines, engines, etc.The dock-yard can be lighted by electric light.For the last six years dredges havebeen employed to deepen the natural harbor.The bar has been deepened from twelve to about twenty-four feet to enable permanent moorings to be laid down for the larger men-ot-war.About four miles north of the port there is a spring of fresh water, Thiswateris now run through pipes to the dock-yard aud the town is also partially supplied with water in the same way.Although the-port is free from ice during the entire winter, ships cannot Le docked for cleaning and painting purposes between the middle of November and the middle of March, asthe weather then is too cold for ordinary paint to dry.The defences of the port consisted of well- constructed forts, armed with modern guns of heavy calibre.The coast defences are spread over more than four miles of seaboard and consists of about twelve batteries, equally distributed ou either side of the entrance of the port.The armament consists of more than forty Krupp guns, varying from six inches to 9.06 inche, including sowe rifle mortars.In addition there is the torpedo bout station and an elaborate system of sub-marine mines.The western side nf the port is protected by the shoaling of the harbor.The garrison was said to cousist of about seven thousand men, The second Chinese-Japanese army, under the Command of Field-Marshal Count Oyama, Minister of War, consisted of about thirty thousand men, and when this force arrived off the Regent's Sword Promontory it was divided into two detachments, one of which, aided by part of the Jupanese fleet, operated against Talien Wan, while the other directed its movement against Kin Chow, on the western side of the promontory, some mile north of Port Arthur.Tulien Wan and Kin Chow were both captured, after which the army combined and the march on Port Arthur was commenced.Several engagements of minor importance took place along the route, but according to the reports the Japanese were invariably successtul, The roads leading northward from Port Arthur were supposed to have been mined by the Chinese, and the Japanese commander, therefore, declined to take the risk of marching his troops along them.Consequently, they were compelled to cut roads through the forests to allow of the passage of their artillery, ammunition trains, etc.The march was thus necessarily slow.Despatches received a few days ago stated that the Japanese were close to the citvand had attacked the Chinese outposts, driving them back to their entrenchunents.It is also said that the Japanese attacked the entrenchments three times, but were repulsed each time.It is evident that later attacks must have been wade and that the outposts were compelled to fall back upon Port Arthur.Several tines the town is reported to have been captured, but later despatches have shown that these reports were inaccurate and that the Japanese were conducting their operations against the place with great carcfulness and that they intended when the real attack was made that it should be successful.Che-Foo, from which place the despatch announcing the fall of Port Arthur is sent, is aChinese city on the north coast of the Shan-Tung promontory, some 90 miles miles south of Port Arthur, from which it is separated by Gulf of Pei-Chi-Li.Washington, D.C., Nov.23.\u2014 The despatch from Che Foo announcing the fall of Port Arthur was taken to the Japanese Legation here at a late hour to-night, and shown to one of the officials, who was much gratified at the intelligence.Credence is given to the news by the Legation officials, because of tne fact that it comes from Chinese sources, a matter not likely unless it was well authenticated.London, Nov.23.\u2014A despatch to the Times from Che Foo says that Port Arthur was taken Wednesday morning.The fighting was continuous from noon of the 20th.The Japanese fleet did not take part in the engagement, though the torpedo boats attached to the fleet did.The despatch adds that the Japanese are now leaving Port Arthur.A Shanghai despatch confirms the report of the capture of Port Arthur.It says that the Japanese torpedo boats distracted the forts while the troops entered the town.Some important changes in the time table of Richelieu and Ontario Navigation Co.are announced to-day.The steamers Canada, Laprairie and Hosanna make their last trip, TO-DAY'S HEHALD.To.day\u2019s Herald consists of sixteen pages, including a four-page supplement printed on

Offence, Joseph Dagenais, Arthur Giroux and Ernest Theriault, the three young men caught by the firemen about a week ago sending in two false alarms outside of Robert & Fils factory on Papineau Road for a supposed fire were up before Re corder De Montigny yesterday afternoon, Foreman Pressau and Liremen Dage- nais and Aubertin having testified to catching the three prisoners red-handed, and they having no defence the Recorder found them guilty.: llis Honor was about to render sentence when he was cut short by the appearance of Ald.Stevenson, Chairman, and Ald.Costigan, Pemmy, Jacques and Mar- solais, members of the Fire Committez, Chief Benoit also accompanied them.Chairman Stevenson - acted as spokesman and stated that the members of his committee had \"had a private meeting at which they decided to wait upon His Honor tb request him to inflict a more severe penalty than he had done in the past.Several members of the force had lost their lives, while responding to these fiendish false alarms, and great damage had heen done to the horses.and plant of the brigade through the same cause, A.fine was not sufficient for the gravity of the offence.The Recorder said he fully sympathized with the views expressed by the Chairman of the Fire Committee on De- half of himself and manbers.He had fully intended to be more severe dven without their suggestion.The crime was a grave one and he would send Dag- enais and Giroux, who appeared to be the principal offenders to jail for one month and \u2018fine them $10 or another month in default.of payment.\u2018Theriault's sentence will be suspended as his father has promised to send him out of the city inside of a fewdays'and as he is a young man belonging to a respectable family, CI wish to give him another chance ta try and be a good member of society,\u2019 said the Recorder.The judgment gave great satisfaction to the Fire Committee who now think the false alarm fiends will not appear in the future, TRADES COUNCIL.A Press Committee Formed \u2014 City Charter Changes Endorsed.The Central Trades and Labor Council held a special meeting last night at the Ville Marie Hall, Notre Dame Street, J.T.Fontaine, presiding.A communication from Fraternity Assembly, No.1,035, K.of L., was read asking that the Council consider the advisahility of forming a Press Committee, whose duties would consist of preparing and {furnishing the Press with reports of the meetings held.Delegate Milburne explained that the reason which prompted Fraternity Assembly to move in the matter was to prevent indiscriminate and in many cases untruthful reports being furnished by unscrupulous persons which were a menace to the interest of labor.After a lengthened discussion it was moved by Delegate Fogg, seconded hy Delegate Paquette, that the communication from Fraternity be acted upon.Delegate Darlington called upon the Council to throw its doors open to the public and allow all recognized press representatives free ingress, this he contended would raise the tone of the Council, and enable it to transact its affairs in a business-like manner instead of having circus performances and petty squabbling.Several other delegates having spoken the vote was called for and resulted in the recommendation in favor of a Press Committee being adopted by 19 to 8, The appointment was laid over until next meeting.A communication from Mr.H.Bi Ames asking that the Council would endorse the Electoral League amendments to the city charter, and informing them that they were already endorsed \u2018by District Assembly No.18, K.of L., the Counci} of the Board of Trade, the Good Government Association, the Mayor, a number of aldermen and prominent citizens.Delegate Darlington emphasized the importance of having them endorsed by the Council, as if adopted in Quebec it would aid them in nominating labor candidates, as he hoped they soon would he in a position to do by cheapening the cost of election expenscs.It was moved by Delegate Darlington and seconded by Delegate Malone, that the amendments to the charter be endorsed by the Council, Quite a breeze was raised at this stage by several delegates refusing to vote because the amendments were not read in French, when Secretary Malone generously came to the rescue and in French, with an Irish accent, read the clauses.The motion was carried by 23 to 6.The report of the representatives of the Board of Trade was presented and adopted.Several delegates protested against reports heing presented in English only, and it was ordered that in future no reports shall he received unless presented in both languages.The representative of the Dominion Trade Congress reported that important additions to the Factory Act were in preparation, and the corresponding secretary was instructed to procure from the Attorney-General a copy of the proposed amendments, for the use of the Legislative Council, who are to present report on them at next meeting of the ee Council.Shortly, the Council adjourned.| WILL COMPETE WITH THE G.T.R.THE HAMILTON RADIAL RAILWAY COMPANY'S SCHEME.A NET WORK OF RAILROADS FoR WESTERN ONTARIO, A Scheme Alleged to be Backed by the Canadian Pacific Railway, New York, Nov.23.\u2014A special to the Evening Post, from Buffalo, says: \u2018\u201c\u2018One of the largest Canadian railway projects since the scheme of the Canadian Pacific Railroad across the continent was first mooted, has been evolved by the Hamilton Radial Railway Company, of Hamilton, Ont., an association of Canadian and United States capitalists.** Their scheme is to build a net-work of railroads, steam and electric, radiating from Hamilton and connecting with the more important cities and towns of Western Ontario, the main object being to divert ,trade to Hamilton, while the ulterior object is best explained in a letter received by the Evening Post\u2019s correspondent from an officer of the Company, who asks that his name be not revealed at thistime.He says: We intend to build a first-class road and connect at Woodstock, Toronto and other points withthe Canadian Pacitic Railway.The electric part of the system will likely be the lines to Berlin and Guelph, and on these the road-bed and gradients will be fully up to the first-class steam railway requirements.The Niagara Falls branch will be continued to Buffalo, ana the 228 miles which compose the system will reach over one-third of the population (nearly 700,000) of Ontario, and tap the rich farming community.\u201c\u2018All this territory 1s at present served | only by the Grand Trunk Railway, and as the total capitalization of this road will be less than one-quarter of that of the Grand Trunk, and the bonds will have ten years in the paid-up, it is thought tlie stockholders will have a fair chance for big dividends.\u201cWe expect to build a line to make quick connections between Buffalo and Detroit, as none of the grades between Suspension Bridge and Woodstock on our line will cover over thirty-five feet to the mile.\u201d The new line, will, it is believed, uct in harmony with and have the co-operation of the Canadian Pacific Railway.ELECTRIC ROAD INSPECTED, Trip Over the Montreal Park and Island Company's Line.On Thursday afternoon the Mayor and a deputation of councillors from Lachine came into town to look over the Montreal Park and Island Company\u2019s line, and enjoyed a run out to Outremont and Sault au Recollet.The occasion was also availed of to inspect a new car which the company has had built by N, and A.C.Larisiere.A start was made from the foot of Bleury Street at two o'clock.The party consisted of Mayor Deslaurier, Councillors Leclerc, Martin, l'hornioe, White, Leblanc and Lizotte, Lachine ; A.J.Corriveau, J.P.B.Casgrain, Joseph Roy and several Press, tepresenta- tives.At Cote des Neiges Mayor Swail, Councillor Prendergast and Mr.Marple, electrical engineer of the company, joined the party.The car in which they travelled was quite different in many respects from those commonly in use and was greatly admired.The exterior color is a rich dark olive, with slight decorations in gold.The inside is finished in cherry wood, and upholstered in blue and olive.The heating stove is of a new style, and the ventilation provides for the {reed circulation of pure air.hey vestibules are large and completely closed in.The cars put on the line in future will be equal to this one if not superior, lt will run on the Outremont line.Cote des Neiges was reached in quick time, and here the new piece of line from the Cemetery road to the AtiMetic Club House was inspected.This will prove a great convenience for those wishing to go there, and was used for the first time later the same day when a party of over one hundred went out in special cars.Returning from Cote des Neiges the party proceeded to the Sault, the high rate of speed which the solid road-bed allowed being much remarked on.On the return journey a stop was made at Pclo- quin\u2019s, where a splendid dinner was waiting.The toast of Mr.Corriveau and the company was proposed by Councillor Leclerc, and that of the Mayor and Council of Lachine by Mr.Corriveau.Exa pressions of pleasure were heard at what the company had done, and hopes that the line to Lachine would be the next opened.Mr.Corriveau stated that it no unforeseen obstacles should arise the company would have a fully-equipped double track line to Lachine running by July 1st next.The run from Peloquin\u2019s to St.Catherine Street was made in twenty-five minutes.MARINE INTELLIGENCE, Movements of

HARVARD WONT WIN, AND EVEN MONEY SAYS THAT THE CRIMSON WILL NOT SCORE.The Big Inter-Collegiate Game in Springfield this Afternoon \u2014 Both Teams in Excellent Condition \u2014 The Montreal Insurance Hockey League \u2014 General sporting News, Springfield, Mass.,, Nov.23.\u2014Leaden skies and an aspect for to-morrow, blue enough to please even the most enthusiastic Yale man, was the rule to-night.The predictions, however, for to-morrow are fair weather and warm, and Springfield people refuse to believe that the good weather of former years is not to be duplicated.The city is in gala attire, the shop windows and fronts of buildings heing decorated.The Yale team with its coachers and a few heelers arrived at 2.45 in a special car.'\u2018Josh\u201d Hartwell is attending them at Ulympia School.He is the only one of the coach- ers who accompanied the players.Giant Beflelfinger was seen at the Nassasoit.In reply to a query he said: \u2018Of course we hope to win, but you know it is the unexpected which always happens, If we are beaten we can have no excuse except that they played better than we did, for we are in fine condition.\u201d \u201cBilly\u201d Bull, the peer of all drop kickers said: *\u2018The team is not overconfident.That is a false report which has got abroad.Harvard is much stronger than any imagine and will be in the game from start to finish.The men are fn as good shape physically as one could wish for, and that is ground for hope, bat no more.\u201d *'Billy** Rhodes, who captained the only Yale team that has ever been beaten by Harvard, was not very talkative, He would not express an opinion one way or another, but simply said: \u2018We are going to try to win, and we might go home with a victory.\u201d In the meantime the Yale team and the substitutes had arrived at Dr, Gulick's school, where they are to stay until after the game.As soon as the players had looked about a bit, they were sent off to the athletic field, which is connected with the school, where they exercised for half an hour.The special train bringing the .crimson squad pulled into the Springfield station Just before six to-night and the men were greeted with a few cheers from the gathering crowds as they filed to the wait- inz electric cars which carried them to their richly furnished quarters in Ilotel Savoy, on Armory Hill.\u2018The eleven will spend the night, but a short distance from their blue-legged rivals on State Street.To-night every football enthusiast is making comparison of men and teams.Yale men are calling attention fn an exultant way to the fact that hereditary spirit and thorough ucquaintance with each other are large components of success, and both these Yale has.Qi the eleven men who will line up to-morrow for the blue, nine played on last year's team and are thorouzhly conversant with each other.On the contrary, but five of the Harvard team are last year\u2019s men, The Yale adherents are putting great faith in the strength of the centre and the pr hable star playing of Butterworth behind the line.\u2018They argue that Still- man, ilickok and McRae are invincible, and that Harvard will find it almost ime possible to get through.The claim is not unreasonable for Harvard found last your that these same men were like adamant.Ilickok particularly is alleged to be in most remarkable condition, his training for the Oxford games having kept him in first-class shape.As to Butter- worth, it is not only believed, but openly said that he will make some brilliant kicks and punts.These are the hopes of Yale men outside of the excellent condition of the team in general.But if Yale adherents are coniident, the confidence is met in an equal degree on the Harvard side.While it is admitted that the Shaw brothers may be a little \u2018weaker, fio far as physical condition goes, than the men of the line opposite, there is the old player Mackie to stand opposite Hickok, and the claim is made that the Shaw brothers are well up in the peculiar interference for which Lewis is celebrated and in which he has instructed them, Confident assertions are made that Wrenn at quarter will put up a better game tNan Adee, and that C.Brewer and Wrightinz- ton at the halves will, by over-balancing the Yale backs, overcome the difference in favor of Butterworth of Yale at fullback.Fairchild at full-back for Harvard is said to kick very well and he will get some good assistance in bringing back Buttlerworth\u2019s punts from C, Brewer and Wrightington, The impartial representatives of other colleges than the two contesting believe that both teams will have some surprise to spring.To-pight the Yaie-Harvard assembly took place and was, as usual a brilliant social ¢vent.Tha betting odds to-night are five to three that Yale will win, and cven money that Harvard will not score.The probable line-up for to-morrow follows: Yale\u2014F, Hinkeyr (Captain), left end ; Beard, left tackle; McRae, left guard; Stillman, centre; Hickok, right guard ; Murphy, right tackle; L.Hinkey, right end; Adee, quarter-back; Jerrems, right hali-back; Thorne, left half-back; Butter- worth, full-back, Harvard\u2014A, Brewer, right end; Waters, right tackle; J.Shaw, right guard; F, Shaw, centre; Mackie, left guard; Hallo well, left tackle; Emmons (captain), left end; Wrenn, quarter-back; C.Brewer, right hali-back; Wrightington, left half-back; Fairchild, full-back, FOOTBALL.The Mobawks to Meet, The Mohawks will hold a special meeting in the Turkish Bath Hotel, St.Monique ee] YOUNG GIRLS b entering womanhood

two races were run in a rain.The only exciting finish was in the fourth race, when the three horses in the lead reached the wire heads apart.The opening event was a pretty contest for a large

Insurance League.A meeting for the purpose of organizing the proposed Insurance Hockey League was Leld yesterday evening as the Imperial Building, An unexpected difficulty arose from the number of delegates present, in the first place, and secondly from the fact that some of the companies with smaller staff than others wish to amalgamate to form teams.Of the companies in Montreal the North British, Royal, Guardian, Standard Life and Phenix of London can each put in a team of their own and the other companies if amalgamated, can supply four more teams, Of course the single companies are averse to having combinations to play against them, but the matter will be settled this afternoon at two o'clock, when a meeting of delegates will be held at the Imperial Building.Mr.Matthews President.At a meeting of the Independent Hocko League Mr.E.Matthews, of the Queen's Hotel, was unanimously clected President.Mr.Matthews is well-known in amateur sporting circles, and will make a model president.Winnipeggers Coming, The Winnipeg Nor\u2019-Wester says: There is now bnt little doubt that the long discussed project of sending the Victoria hockey champions East this season will materialize.The Eastern clubs communicated with have readily fallen in with the idea of having the Western men visit them, and answers have already been received from the Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal and Quebec clubs, who all make liberal offers.That of the Toronto clpnb is said to be particularly generous, they having promised to guarantee the Winnipeggers $200 a match, and say that as many as three cr four could be contested in the Queen City.« other places ure willing to give the Vic a big share of the gate receipts so that the expenses of the trip would be easily covered, The only thing now which can at all interfere with the excursion will be the inability of any of the players to get of.It is thought however that this can be arranged in each case.The following men would probably represent the Club in its eastern matches: Merritt, Higginbotham, Flett, Howard, Armytage,McCulloch,Campbell, Thomson and Bain, ROWING and SAILING.Watson Will Build Dunraven's Yacht.Loudon,

been matched to fight six rounds.Deposits are up and a date has been agreed upon.A fight has been arranged between Finnan and Gorman of Montreal for $25 a side.The fight will come off in three

Street, Fitz, Very Formidable, Measurements do not win battles in the ring, but Bob Fitzsimmons\u2019 measurements, backed by hls wonderful record in the roped arena, lead me to believe that the red haired Australian will give Cham- plon James J.Corbett the battle of his life when they meet next year.I have seen Corbett stripped on several occasions, and I very recently saw Fitz- simmons examined and measured by Dr.John Wilson Gibbs, the New York physi- clan who has at one time or another stretched a tapeline over the powerfu! frames of Sullivan, Corbett, Jackson, Fitzsimmons and other leading exponents of slugology.I was a Corbett partisan before Corbett miet Sullivan, and after see ing both men in training was of the opinion that Corbett was in form to surprise the talent and defeat tho great John 1.When Corbett and Mitchell wero training, I could only figure tho Englishman e winner upon the hypothesis that Corbett might obligingly fall dead in the ring, and when Corbett and Fitzsimmons were matched recently to mect about a year hence for the champlonship of the world and tho substantial sum of $61,000, the only laurel wreath fancy could conjure up was ono that rosted athwart the luxuriant pompadour of the unbeaten Californian.Fancy is not so certain of this, however, since the broad shouldered, wonderfully muscled Australian struck a living pio ture pose at the residence of Dr.Gibbs.Fitzsimmons is a physical freak, and a very formidable appearing freak too.From the walst up Lo is one of the moss CORBETT AXD FITZSIMMONS COMPARED, [Corbett black, Fitzsimmons white.} magnificent specimens of physical excol- lence I have ever seon stripped, and I have viewed his estcemed pugilistic contempo- rarios\u2014Corbett, the lithe, powerful Apollo; Bullivan, the mighty ninctcenth century gladiator, and Jackson, the bronze Hercules of ®ho antipodes.From the waist down Fitzsimmons is slender and disappointing, but his long, slim legs are well muscled and bave nover failod him during his successful career in the ring.Fitzsimmons is built like a great human wedge.From his wonderfully broad shoulders, the top of the wedge, he descends in what might almost be called two unbroken lines that rapidly approach nearer and nearer to each other and strike the floor only five or six inches apart.In his day Sullivan\u2019s shoulders, chest and arms were considered the acme of perfection in a heavyweight pugilist, and yet Bob Fitzsimmons, tho overgrown middleweight, has a breadth of shoulders of 204 inches, exactly equaling in this respect the erstwhile mighty man from Boston.Sullivan was 4414 inches around the chest; Fitzsimmons is 42, and Fitzsim- mons has the cnormous chest expansion of 6 inches, while Sullivan's expansion was only 2 inches.With arms outstretched Sullivan was 6 fcet 9 inches from finger tips to finger tips, and Fitzsimmons\u2019 measurement in this particular is the same as Sullivan\u2019s.The ox-champion was 5 foct 1014 inches tall, and Fitzsimmons overtops bim by 114 inches.Theso figures are merely given to show how Fitzsimmons compares in some respects with the man who was champion a dozen years.What the public is more interested in is how Fitzsimmons compares with Corbett.In the table which follows tho Fitzsimmons figures aro correct, for I saw them taken and can vouch for them.The Corbett measurements were taken immediately preceding his battle with Mi'ehel].anlaare fubstantielly.gorrect.TH.CULE SnHNANDS OT \u201cChe * rival gladiators are the following: Corbett.Dimensions.Fitzsimmons.2 years., cree AGO.ass0c evene 82 years 6 feet 14 inch.,,.Height.b feet 113{ inches 188 pounds.,.,.Weight.ovvee.185 pounds 2014 inches.B1%4 inches 424 inches, normal.4214 inches 4554 inches,.Chest expanded.4734 inches 1634 inches, .1434 inches 1434 inches .\u2026 1234 inches 83 inches.,.,.2854 inches 21 inches.19 inches, 14 inches It will thus be seen that Corbett ia taller, younger and heavier than ¥itzslm- mons, and that the Australian surpasses him in reach, lung power and breadth of shoulders.At 28 Corbett may be said to be in his prime, while Fitzsimmons at 83 is past the age when a pugilist is usually considered to be in his best form.Fitz- simmons can fight for his life at from 150 to 170 pounds, and the probabilities are that when he meots Corbett he will not underweigh the Californian more than 15 or 20 pounds.In a recent interview Cor- bett declared that he proposed to get down to 175 pounds, about his weight when he fought Sullivan, in order that no one could sneeringly say after he had whipped Fitzsimmons that he had only added another middleweight\u2019s scalp to his belt.If Corbett enters the ring at 178 pounds, which is very doubtful, he and Fitzsim- mons will not be far apart in the matter of avoirdupois.In tho matter of training Fitzsimmons is the wonder of the ring.He finds ne difficulty in fighting at the middleweight limit, and he seems able to put on 15 or 20 pounds at will and still be in fine fettle for the fray.Corbett is less than an inob taller than Fitzsimmons and will consequently reap little advantage in tho matter of height.In reach Corbett seems to he quite a little at a disadvantage, especially when it is remembered what a penchant Fitz has for ending a battlo in about the third or fourth round by landing his long right with unerring accuracy on his opponent\u2019s jaw.As boxers Both men stand at the top ot the heap.They know every trick of the trade and are as agile as deer upon theiz feet.In this respect they are so much alike that neither may be said to possess any advantage over the other.Both are masters of ring generalship, but Corbett seems much more apt to lose his bead under trying circumstances than his opponent.Corbett practically fouled Mitchell at Jacksonville because he allowed rage to get tho better of his prudence, and, although Corbett is undoubtedly as fair a fighter as lives at heart, such tactics against Fitzsimmons might lose him a closely contested battle.While it is true that Fitzsimmons has never met a man so formidable as Corbett, it is also true that Corbett has never faced a fighter of Fitz- simmons\u2019 marvelous quickness.Fitzsimmons has whipped a great many good men in quick time, and his victories over Jack Dempsey.Peter Maher, Jim \u2018* \u2019A11,\u201d as he calls Jim Hall, Joe Chayn- ski, 8lade the Maori, Dan Creedon and a hundred other lesser lights have demonstrated that he is a pugilist worthy of any man\u2019s best efforts, but on two occasions since he came to America he has narrow- \u2018ly escaped being knocked out.Big Peter Maher had him in a hazy condition of mind early in their 13 round battle March 2, 1892, and Fitzsimmons honestly admitted to me the other day that Choynski had him nearly out whitn they met tn Boston not long ago.Fitzsimmons\u2019 wonderful re- ouperative power is shown by the fact that in both battles he rallied from the very verge of a knockout and succeeded in finishing his men in hurricane style.If James J.Corbett gets him going in this manner, however, the probabilities are that he will keep on going until he goes out.On the other hand, if Fitz suc- cecds in landing his terrible right on the Californian\u2019s chin with the old time force that has inducted so many good men into a stato of somnolent quietude, and that recently resultod in tho accidental killing of Con Riordan, his sparring partner, during an exhibition bout, there scems no good reason why Corbett should not go down and out also.All things considered, Corbett and Fitz- simmons are more equally matched in pugilistic ability than is generally supposed.Corbett will bo the favorite if they meet, and I think he will win, but Fitz- simmons may have something up his sleeve that will surpriso the entire sporting world.EARLE H.EATON.VAN DOOZER A LINE BUCKER.His Chicago Athletic Association Team One of the West's Best Elevens.One of the

Clearances.New York, Nov.23.\u2014Bradstreets\u2019 tomorrow will say: The features of general trade for the week include an increase in distribution of holiday goods, of heavy clothing, hats, seasonable dry goods and at various points hardware and shoes.This was stimulated by seasonable cold weather and a continuance of the feeling of confidence in a nearby improvement in demand.At the North, lake navigation has practically closed and the results of the season\u2019s work are generally unsatisfactory.The fact that demand for iron and steel has not fully kept pace with production is made plain in another re-action bringing the price\u201c Bessemer pig down to $10.25 and of b llets » $15.25; with the outlook not unfavoru: Lor 810,00 Bessemer Pig iron and $15.00 for billets at Pittsburg.Coal prices are cut again.The anthracite output for the completed calendar year promises to amount to about 40,- 500,000 tons, against 43,089,000 tons in 1893, and pig iron production to 6,545,000 tons, as compared with 7,124,000 tons in 1893.The Pacific coast makes another record in the matter of exports of wheat, Tacoma having secured an unusually large proportion of this business during late weeks.San Francisco wires that vessels are being chartered there to proceed to Columbia River in ballast to load with wheat.Exports of wheat (and flour as wheat), both coasts, United States and Canada, amount this week to 3,312,000 bushels, compared with 2,909,000 bushels last week, 2,764,000 bushels in the week a year ago, 3,465,000 bushels in 1892, and 4,082,000 bushels in 1801.The Thanksgiving holiday in Canada has reduced the volume of trade, although from Halifax comparatively favorable reports are received as to calculations.It is reported that lumber operations in the Maritime Provinces this winter promise to exceed those of proceeding season.Demand for fresh meats at Toronto has increased, with which exception the trade situation is unchanged.Montreal wires that higher prices for Manitoba flour report the increased amount going to the railroads for transportation.Relatively greatest activity in the Province of Quebec is in groceries, BANK CLEARANCES.Bradstreets reports the total bank clearings for the week at the principal cities of the United States as $1,019,959,895, an increase from last year of 7.8 percent.Outside of New York the clearings were $469,- 172,331, an increase of 10.5 per cent.The clearings for the Dominion of Canada were: Montreal, $10,649,264, increase 14.0 per ceat.; Toronto, $4,683,815, decrease 3.2 per cent.; Halifax, $915,412, decrease 2.4 per cent.; Hamilton, $546,218; Winnipeg, x $1,365,633.Totals, $16,794,- 691.x Not included in totals because of no comparison for last year.DUN\u2019S REVIEW.New York, Nov.23.\u2014R.G.Dun and Company\u2019s weekly review of trade : There are some changes for the better.The gain is slow and in some directions not very dis- definite than last week.The most important of them is larger employment of labor, answering a better demand on the whole for manufactured products.Prices of farin products in the aggregate do not improve, but the prevailing hopefulaness is felt in somewhat larger transactions.A little premium on gold, for the first time since since 1878, uaturally excites some comment, even thouxh it is only the smallest fraction, and apparently due to temporary causes.Undeniably it reflects à disposition to hoid gold which answers to the desire of the Government to get gold without redeeming its notes.The wheat market has lost the cent gained last week.Western receipts being larger and Atlantic exports are also larger, £47,711 bushels, against 703,026 last year, but these are of small account compared with the great visible supply.Foreign reports this week have been rather more promising, though the fact remains that the world\u2019s crop outside the United State is | probabiy the largest ever grown.Corn has | declined 14c,receipts having much increased.The Foreign demand for cotton continues large, exports beir:g 50,000 bales larger than for the same week last year, but receipts also continue greater than a year ago, and for three months will closely approximate those of the same three months when the yield was over 9,000,000 bales.But the price rose an eighth.It is reporsed that an American shipyard has secured orders to build three armored cruisers for Russia, which will give added work for some years, and that a contract for 10,000 tous cast pipe for Tokio will probably be secured by a Southern concern.Tin, copper and lead are all weaker, and some concessions are reported in tin plates.The coke product slightly decreases, but was about the largest ever known for October.Failures in two weeks of November have been moderately large in amount, reported liabilities being $5,602,303, of which $1,- 713,466 were of manufacturing and $3,831,- 289 of trading concerns.For the same week last: year liabilies were over $7,200,000.The tailures thls week have been 322 in the United States, against 385 last, and 31 in Canada, against 34 last year, Try Southern Straight Cut Cigarestes.10c per package.A Repulsive

and other dramas, originating the part of the dancing girl in Henry Arthur Jones\u2019 play of that name.This 1s tLe piece in which she will star next year.This character, as a representation of a wanton, caroless, pleasure loving creature, half outside the pale of respectability, is one exactly sulted to Miss Harned\u2019s style of acting and must be classed as a highly artistic creation.Drusilla Ives, the dancing girl of tho profligate duke, while not, strictly speaking, an adventuress, is still à woman inhersntly depraved and sensuous to tho core.The nonchalance and coolness with which she refuses the duko\u2019s offer of marriage and spurns him in the very words with which he has once rebuffed her were always received with a storm of applauso.This goes to prove how we all sneakingly admire plucky adventuresses and aro pleased to see the hero paid in his own coin.The latest character in which Miss Harned has been seen is Mrs.Sylvester in \u2018The New Woman\u201d at Palmer\u2019s theater, New York.Virginia Harned is an excentionally handsome blond, with golden hair and blue eyes, and is noted as one of the most beautiful and attractive women on the American stage.EQUINE GOLD MINES.Domino cost $3,000 and has won $190,- 000 in two years.In nine years\u2019 campaigning the groat Kingston won $135,000.During his turf carecr Hanover took into camp about $121,000.Potomac, the Futurity and Realization winner of 1890 and 1891, respectively, earned $118,600.Raceland, winner of the Suburban Handicap of 1889, in his eight seasons captured $118,250.Miss Woodford, the Champion stakes winner of 1884, enriched her owner $118,- 000.Salvator, \u201cthe race horse of the century,\u2019\u2019 took into camp the sum of $114,- 870.His Highness, the Futurity winner in 1891, won $114,000 during his career on the turf.Dobbins has already won about $114,000 for his owner, Richard Croker, late of Tammany Hall.Firenzi, one of America's grandest racing mares, won $111,641 in six seasons on the track.Sir Walter is good for many a race yet, but has already won the substantial sum of §101,000.Try Southern Straight Cut Cigarettes, 10c per package.Retail &% Department.For Finest Cuts and Best Quality of MEATS!

something.We've been going and going ever since we moved hero, and it\u2019s time we returned wome of the courtesies we have receiv- 1\" \u201cYes, of course wo must,\u2019\u2019 agrees the feminine dear appealed to.\u201c\u2018I feel that we can\u2019t put it off any longer, but I dread it.There\u2019s so much to think of and arrange if the entertainment is to bo an entire success.There aro the table decorations, the china, the flowers and the menu.If we have dancing, there are the favors to be arranged, or else we must have somebody to sing or read or do something to entertain the guests.Then I must have a new gown, and the girls too.It seems a terrible undertaking, but I suppose I must go through with it,\u201d\u2019 and the prospective hostess sighs as she thinks of her many responsibilities.The time has come when Mrs.Charl- ton Judd or Mrs.Anybody Else who wishes to entertain may do so without giving hersclf the slightest trouble.She bas simply to apply to the \u2018\u2018bureau of social requirements,\u2019\u2019 put the affair in the hands of its managers, and the dinner, tea, cotillon or reception will come off without further effort on her part.In sterting this bureau Miss Ella Garrison entered a new field in the range of occupations for women.There are caterers, of course, and scores of florists ready to do their part toward the success of a private entertainment, but never before in New York has a hostess been able to resign to a bureau the entire management of a party from the composition of the menu and the design for the cards of invitation to suggestions as to her own toilet.Miss Garrison has &t her command a staff of chefs ready to concoct dainty dishes and butlers whose dignified deportment will add splendor to any entertainment.She proposes to furnish unique designs for the arrangements at weddings and to show blushing brides how to advance gracefully to the altar.She will devise ideas for children\u2019s

regarding every detail about which tho slightest concern might be felt.In short, she will take all care of tho hostess\u2019 shoulders and enable her to mingle with her gucsts with a light heart.There is another branch of the bureau of social requirements which will tend to relieve the mistress of many a hand- somo home of worry and responsibility.This department is described in the dainty little lavender pamphlet which the bureau sonds out as \u2018\u2018the dismantling and rearrangement of houses.\u201d When a family is to be absent from the city during the suminer months or wishes to put aside the many article: that make the indoor life of winter so attractive the manager of the bureau will send workwomen and go herself to superintend the swathing of the furniture in linen.In the autumn it will be her province to take off the wrappings and restore the various articles to their places.Another department that receives the bureau\u2019s atteution is \u2018\u2018information ou all points of social life.\u2019\u201d Many subtle problems that are as a sealed book to the uninitiated will be made plain on application to tho manager.These include such questions as \u2018\u2019How long a time should or should not elapse before pay- inga first call?\u2019 and \u2018What should determine precedence in the matter of seats at dinner?\u2019 Perhaps even thr kinds of forks and spoons to bo used for certain courses may puzzle one who has never paid much attention to such matters.The bureau will solve all such problems.\u201cWhat first suggested such a busi- bess to you?\u2019 asked

A Going Away Gown.A chic \u201cgoing away\u2019 gown for a bride is a rich, deep moss green crepe cloth, the skirt being untrimmed, save for an embroidered arabesque in front at the foot, done in tiny turquoises and jots with silver thread.The bodice is of black moire, veiled all over with black chiffon in soft folds, to which is added the very Frenchy touch of three narrow stripes of yellow lace insertion from the collar and shoulders, converging at the crushed belt of moire that is set off with pert little upstanding bows.The collar is also a crushed standing band of moire.The sleeves are pouis of the green cloth over velvet forearm sleoves edged with chinchilla.The wrap is a youthful looking double circular cape of green velvet, the shorter capa of which is embroidered to match the skirt, and there is a third cape of chinchilla, one-third the depth of the longer velvet one.The hat is of velvet, the piquant upturned front a mass of embroidery, with two sumac blossom shaped pompons thrust carelessly through the gemmed garniture, A New Candidate, Mme.Dandurand is a lady who has recently written a paper on the influence of women\u2019s clubs ou Canadian life.In this article she said something which ought to be written in letters of gold and hung on the walls of every woman\u2019s club in Christendom.She begged all societies to admit a new candidate to membership\u2014gayety.\u201c\u2018I crave yon,\u201d she said, \u2018\u2018not to give it an ill reception.It is such a good child.And then it has wrongfully been accused of being too superficial.I am aware that there is no: affinity between it and pedantry, but it is also true that the daughter of wit is at heart on the best terms with science.| A genial demeanor seems to accord best | with the nature of women, who are | never pardoned when they usurp the se- | rious gravity of the strong sex.The muses are anything but morose.Apollo | is the most charming among the gods.| If the divine sisters wore all to resemble ' the grave Ifinerva, and if the son of Phoebus thought of distinguishing himself as astern mentor, the temples would | soon be deserted.\u201d Mrs, Iiorrict B.Kells, The Union Signal announces the retirement of its well known editor, Mrs.Harriet B.Kells, who for three years has conducted the contributed and household departments.In the variety and piquancy which she introduced upon these pages as well as in her own contributions her special gifts have been | displayed.Her winsome personality, devotion and enthusiasm in the white ribbon cause have endeared her to her coworkers in Chicago, who bid her godspeed in bar future undertakings.Mrs.| Kells regretfully resigned her position | on The Union Signal in order to engage in business in the south, where the climate is more conducive to her health.She is located at present at Fort Worth, Tex.Wo shall hope that her return to | the sunny south will help the move- | ment in that part of the country, which '

face\u2014that is, if you are lucky : enough to possess one blessed with ar- | tistic curves and ontlines.À prominent society woman, on her return from Par- | is several months ago, exhibited to a |! roomful of admiring friends the sweet- | est, daintiest little plaster cast of a foot, which, she declared, was a counterpart | of her own, made by a sculptor of world- | wide fame.She was at that moment having a life size one carved in marble to be mounted on cerise velvet, and sev- | eral small ones, one-half the size, struck off in different shades of pale pink, blue and old rose.The extraordinary popularity of \u201c\u201cTrilby\u2019\u2019 has helped to direct attention to our humblest member and now the women of New York are experimenting to sce whether they have insteps that \u2018\u2018water will flow under,\u201d a sure sign of Live blood.Too Mych New Woman.Commenting on the number of new novels that have the new woman for a theme, the Literary Lounger in the London Sketch remarks that the novelists are doing their best to make us abhor the \u2018\u2018woman.\u2019\u201d\u201d We shall abhor the thing itself, he says, if they go on in their present fashion.But they are, as ' à whole, sensitive to a revulsion of feeling on the part of the public and per- | haps muy be trusted to change their subject and their tore, and so prevent a reaction that would mean arun of fiction with the women\u2019s parts omitted altogether.The end of the new woman novels is probably to be seen in their rapidly increasing number as well as in the fact that they have got into particularly unskillful hands.Handled the Office Successfully.Every one knows the complexity of the business of a large telegraph office and the multiplicity of details requiring constant supervision.When Manager | F.M.Greene took a fortnight\u2019s well earned vacation recently, he left the business affairs of the Western Union office in Toledo in sole charge of Miss Cora E.Hart.Ho returned to find that matters had been running without a jar during his absence.Miss Hart\u2019s sagacity and business expericuce enabled her to handlo the complex duties devolving upon her most

Plankinton, a distance of 50 miles, where they had office work, besides sav- iog enough money to pay for their land.1 ly turned her face to the wall ;rate to defer it.MONTREL DAILY HERALD, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1894.IN THE >< PALAZIO, CHAPTER XIL (Continued.) \u201clt is à wellsmeätt letter, 70 doubt,\u201d slie remarked at length; \u2018\u2018though cets tainly the young man is going out of his provitice in attempting to influence your Gousse of! action\u2014a proceeding which should be left to the relations and natural advisers of a young girl, It is, no doubt, sad that you should be unable to see this old man again ii he wishes it; but that is absolutely precluded by the distance between you, and he knows it; and, as you see, he expressly desires you to be guided by the opinions of your friends on the matter.You are the first person, Detta, who has lost a friend at a distance.When you are a little older you will understand that circumstances will not always permit us to fly hither and thither, as our feelings will dictate, to bid farewell to every dying friend in a foreign country.\u201d Benedetta was silent for a moment, then she looked her aunt firmly in the face.\u201cAunt,\u201d she said, *'1 have made up my mind that I must go.I am sorry, very sorry, to make you angry; but I am sure it is right.And, even if I were not sure,\u201d she added, in a lower voice, \u201cI must have gone.\u201d \u201cYou mean to go?\u201d asked Lady Dum- barton, raising herself upright again, and gazing at her niece with a sort of hard glitter in her eyes that answered for what in more demonstrative people would have been a violent outbreak of passion.\u201cAgainst my express commands?And how do you intend to go?And when?\u201d \"I shall go by myself, of course,\u201d replied Detta.**And I think I had better go to-morrow,\u201d \u201cI forbid you to go!\u201d said the elder woman.\u2018*No niece of mine shall depart in such disreputable fashion on such an errand.You will have to choose between your Roman friends and me, If you .go on that jourrey, unattended, to lodge Dy yourself no one knows where, in that Papist city, you do it knowing the cost; I wash my hinds of you.You can take your choice.You had better leave me now,\" And ringing the bell at her bed-head for the maid, Lady Dumbarton deliberate- and her back upon her niece, It was a matter of astonishment to Dztta in after-days that she had the courage to carry through her resolution in spite of al} opposition and difliculty.It was a dreary day.Her aunt utterly refused to speak to her or to take any notice of her; and Miss Sparke, following the lead of her employer, maintained to- wafd the delinquent an air of cold and silent indignation; while obstacles not a few rose np in the girl\u2019s mind to prompt her to relinquish her project, or at any It was a grievous disappointment to her not to be present at her cousin's wedding, and to give up the visit to which she hal looked forward so much; above all, to lose the advice and assistance which she had expected both fron Eva and her mother on the subject of her own proposed plans.Now it might be months before she amin saw them\u2014years, perhaps\u2014who could tell?Once settled at Rome, was it not : possible that her relatives\u2014one of whom she had deeply angered, and the other of whom was now restricted by the limits of an exceedingly scant income\u2014mizht forget their former love for her, or at any rate fail to ask her at any time to return to them?Benedetta bad fancied that her affection for her inother\u2019s country was a deeply- rooted and prevailing sentiment; and so in one sense it was.The very nane of italy, the liquid sound of the soft Italian tongue, had power to arouse a sort of yearning in her breast.Nevertheless, she felt that to return to Rome now, unaccompanied, and in detiance of the wishes it might bz of all her English friends, was to present certainty of home life and home love for a very doubtful equivalent, Rome, with all the romance of its surroundings, with all the cham of its reminiscences, would be at any rate at first à land of strangers, affording but a chill welcome after her long and solitary journey.It was nearly seven years since Detta, in company with Rafaelino Bartolucci, had left the Eternal City and started for English shores\u2014and seven ffears is a long time in the life of a growing girl, She was then a child.she was now a woman, Her former acquaintances, oi whom she had but a hazy remembrance, would many of them be dead or passed away, and others, in point of position and education, be totally uncongenial companions.Annunciata was dead, Pippo had left; \u2018 there would not be one single soul whom she remembered and cared for\u2014not one single soul to connect her with the old days\u2014save the Maestro and Ino.And Ino, if not already gone, would be leaving almost immediately after her arrival.And then Detta thought of the cheerful rooms at Ashley Manor, of her aunt\u2019s maternal ways, of Eveleen's affection and espiegle.rie, of Major Drew\u2019s kind and cordial face, and Beresford Conway's agreeable presence; and, as in contrast to the scene, there rose up before her a vision of the large, cheerles room on the fourth piano of the Palazzo Carborelli, inhabited by one solitary old man, dying, perhaps speechless-not a friendly face or voice near to assist or advise\u2014her heart for a moment nearly failed her.But only ior cne moment.The next she was reproaching herself with bitter scorn for the selfishness which could harbor such thoughts\u2014such fears.What had the future to do with it?Whatever the future might Lring forth \u2018was nothing to her; her duty in the pre- \u2018sent lay before her clearly cnough.And was not the duty also a pleasure?Had she no heart to take pleasure in soothing the dying moments, and fulfilling the last dying wish of the Maestro, whom she had always told herscli she loved so dearly?Yet it was a trying day to her; and would have been still more trying had it not been for the natural excitement in- serarable at her age irom the prospect of so long and novel a journey.She had plenty to do.Yarrow and Rollo must be bid farewell, a long letter must Le written to her cousin Eva to arrive the next morning instead of herself at the Manor, detailing every circumstance which had induced her to follow her present line oi action, much packing up, and, before dinner, one last run, tired as she was, to the favorite knoll where she and her canine friend had so often sat together, to bid adieu to the blue streak of distant sea\u2014that northern sea upon which she might never rest her eyes azain.How often it had rolled in, gray and turbulent, beneath her feet, as she stood that spring upon the rocky cliff walls that bounded its tide; but how clear and unbroken lay the reflections now upon its glassy surface, as the white-and-red sails of the far-off fishing-boats sparkled here and there like daylirht stars.Before retiring to her room for the night, Detta made one more effort at reconciliation with her aunt, Lady Dum- barton was about to leave the room withe out a word to her niece when the girl stopped her, half timidly.(To be Lontinued)y 3 Hints to Housekeepers, Monday, Nov.27, 1894.\u201cWe may live without friends ; we may live
