Quebec, Jan.9.\u2014The Montreal City Bill reached the legislative Council this afternoon.After the speaker had read the message announcing that the Bill had passed the Housp, Hon.Mr.tChapais moved the Bill be read and referred to the Committee on Private bills, Hon, Mr, Gilman oljectéd to this and asked that the regular twenty-four hours motice be given of the motion.Under the rules this notice could not be refused.Consequentiy, the Bill will not be considered im committee until Friday morning.In the House, now that the deck has been cleared for action, there is going to be a series of debates on a number of want of confidence motions.This afternoon Mr, Gladu moved the following: \u201c\u201cIhis House is prepared to vote the supplies to Her Majesty, but regrets to state that, from the tigures given in the Public Accounts, it appears that the annual average expenditure for civil service salaries has been $22,377.43 more under the Taillon Government during the years 1892, 93 and '94, than under the Mercier Government, duriny the four years between the 30th Juhe, 1337 and the 30th June, 1891; \u2018Ihat with the exception of the oftice of Lieutenant-Governor, where the decrease has been 45.49, the increase has been general and has extended to all the departments, as follows: EXECUTIVE COUNCIL.Increase, Taillon Government .$11,298 50 Mercier Governm t.8,279 28 $3,019

violation of the declarations and promises previously made by several of the Ministers, that there is no valid reason to justity it, and that, consequently, it deserves to be blamed by this House.\u201d The discussion of this motion between Messrs, Gladu, Shehyn and Dechene on the one side, and Mr, Carbray on the other, lasted all alternoon.At the evening session the debate was continued by Hon.Mr.Flynn, Hon, Mr, Marchand, Hon.Mr.Pelletier and Mr.Fitzpatrick.Speaker Leblanc, who had been replaced fn the chair by Mr.Tetreau, returned during Mr.Fitzpatrick\u2019s speech.As the member for Quebec County was discussing the Beauport Asylum affairs, the Speaker called him to order.Mr.Fitzpatrick said he was merely replying to the arguments of the Provincial Secretary.The Speaker said that he was merely enforcing the rules of the House, Mr.Fitzpatrick\u2014They are only enforced &gainst us.Discussion is impossible.This was loudly aplauded by the Opposition.As no one rose to continue the debate nor to ask for the vote, the Speaxer declared the amendment defeated.He then put the question on the motion to go into supply.Then Mr.Fitzpatrick rose again.Under the rules of the House, a member may treat of any subject on a motion to go into supply.\u2018The member for Quebec County therefore continued to conclude his argument on the Heauport Ajsylum, whereupon Speaker Leblanc again left the chair, after calling -Mr, Tetreau to replace him.\u2018Now that we have the same Speaker that we had a moment ago,\u201d said Mr.Fitzpatrick, I hope we shall have the same rules,\u201d Mr, Fitzpatrick staked his reputation as a lawyer on the following statement.The former proprictors of the Beauport Asylum had not the right to sell under the conunon law and the Sisters of Charity had not the right to buy the property under the act incorporating them.This was admitted by the Government at the time, but it was contended that the act ratifying the contracts would wipe out the illegality resulting from the disabilities under which the contracting parties suffered.But the contract was not approved by the Legislative Council, the act to legalize the transaction did not pass the Legislature, and consequently the property of the Beauport Asylum has never passed from the hands of Langlais & Co.Ar.Fitzpatrick said that he would make this the subject of a special debate before the end of the session.Mr.Auguste \u2018lessier, ot Nimouski, then moved a resclution to the enect that while the House is prepared to vote the supplies to Her Majesty, ot regrets that the Government, instead of maintaining its claim against contractor Charlebois, to the amount of POS,- £L40, which was based upon the reports ol the authorized ofticers, the Gove ernment has thought proper to abandon it, and give a further sum of $40,000 to the said Mr, Charlebois, as appears by the report of the Commissioner ot Public Works for 1894, page 3G, thereby causing the Province to lose a considerable amount.The debate on this motion was carried on by Mr.\u2018Tessier, Hon.Air.Nan- tel, Mr.Dechene and Mr.Fitzpatrick.Tae speech of the latter had the efiect of weakening the faith ot Mi.Pari- i tions from him, \u201cThe Speaker interrupted this dialogue, which i.e declared to be out of order, Mr.Kennedy then said that he was always willing to suppurt the Government, but that they must have some conscience about it.Before being generous the Government should he just, He would like to have a minis*er stand up and tell, in a few words, which could be understood, whether what was ctntained in the amendment was true or not, Mr.Flynn promptly stood up to as.swe the member lor St.Ann\u2019s Ward that it was all a tempest In a teapot, and that the members might be relieved of all anxiety, \u2018The vovernment hac never made a more honest transaction, and certainly Mr.Charlebois could show in a court ot justice that he had been \u2018ill-treated by the Government fiom his point of view.It was ne Jess a man than Hon, Mr.'latlion who had conducted the settlement of this affair.My.Kennedy\u2014i am very glad to hear it.The vote being taken, thc amendment was defcated by 36 to 13.The House then went into supply and adjourned at 12.40 o'clock.The Montreal aldermen intend to yrevent the citizens from coming to Quebec to secure amendments to the charter that do not please them.ton.Mr.Nantel has æiven the following notice of motion: That the following words be added to paragraph 4 of rule 57: \u2018\u2019An act to amend the municipal incorporation or charter of a village, town or city, shall contain in the preamble to such Bill a declaration that the Bill has previously heen approved by the municipal council of such village, town or city.\u201d This appears ord the orden sheet as a Government notice of motion, but this is likely a mistake, as one of the members of the Government has informed your correspondent that he did not approve of it.Hon.Mr.Taillon was detained in his room all day by nervous prostration.THE C-P.DISMISSALS.Number of Employes Around Toronto May b< R \u2018tucel 30 per cent, Toronto, Jan.9.\u2014Rumors of reductions in the wages and of the staff of the C.P.Rare again current in the city to-day.\u201cThe employes in the works will be reduced about thirty per cent,\u201d said a Toronto railway officer out at Toronto Junction this morning, It is stated that a meeting was held in the city to-day, when the various departments were closely looked into and every man that can possibly be done without will be laid off.The car and bridge departments will suffer most.So far, no reduction has been mentioned in the traffic department.The report has caused considerable excitement out at Toronto Junction among the employes and final results are awaited with eagerness.BOOMED THE CARNIVAL.Ottawa Papers Express Opinions on His Excellency\u2019s Action.Ottawa, Jan.9.\u2014Thecarnival is booming \u2018here and the ice palace is well up, Com- Qenting upon the course the Governor- General has pursued the Free Press to-night says: *\u201ci'he refusal ot the Governor-General to participate in the carnival, however regrettable, is proving a blessing in disguise.1t has acted like a spur upon the zeal of the public and fanned life into the most lethargic.It isa pity that His Excellency has taken the course he has.It \u2018meets with no greater approval on the part of the people than his refusal to patronize the performance of Mascot.The result in that case was that it was better patronized than any amateur performance in Ottawa had ever been.It is also a pity that he should have made distinctions between the different functions and endeavored to separate the social entertainment of the class from those of the mass.The lines which exist in that respect in the Mother Country are not drawn in this country, and it is undesirable that they, should be drawn.But the carnival is helped anyhow, so out of evil comes good.\u201d The Journal says: \u2018His Excellency the Governor-General, has, it appears, just asked the co-operation of the Montreal City Council to get up a grand entertainment, exact nature not yet specified, the Proceeds of which are to be distributed among the poor of the city.The expenditure and proceeds of Ottawa\u2019s coming entertainment will be distributed, not as pauper relief, but as respectable earnings among people who work for their living and some of whom need the work badly.\u201d GEN.CALDWELL RESIGNS.Will Give Up the Nickel Plate and Look After the Lake \u2018Shore, Cleveland, Ohio, Jan.9\u2014It is announced here that General I.W.Caldwell has tendered his resignation as President of the Nickel Plate Road and will hereafter devote his entire attention to his duties as President of the Lake Shore.It is understood that President S.R.Callaway, of the Toledo, 8t Louis and Kansas City road, will be appointed President of the Nickel Plate, to succeed General Caldwell, President Callwell began his railroad career in the office of the auditor of the Grand Trunk in Montreal.He has been President of the Toledo, St.Louis and Kansas City road since September, 1887 and done much toward making that line a first class road.He is considered one of the best managers in the country.Manitoba\u2019s Subsidy.(Special to The Herald) Ottawa, Jan.9.\u2014Clifford Sifton, Attor- ney-General of Manitoba, arrived here tonight.He will be followed to-morrow by Treasurer McMillan.Their mission here is for the purpose of arranging with the Dominion Government for an increase of subsidy to which Manitoba is entitled on the per capita basis.The increase, it is said, will amount to about $40,000 per annum.An effort has been made for some \u2018time to arrange a meeting with members of the Dominion Caninet, but until now a date could not be fixed upon.Fonnd Dead in the Woods.Quebec, Jan.9.\u2014The body of Etienne Gilbert, who mysteriously disappeared some three weeks ago, has been found in the woods near Riviere Ouelle, some 65 miles below Quebec, where he had gone to see his nephew.Deceased arrived at the above village and finding his relative away in the woods, started out to find him.It is now supposed he lost his way and was overcome by cold.His body, will be brought to Quebec for interment.1 zeau, who began to

WANTED.Four Members of the Finamee Come mittee Denonnce the Charter Amendment, \u2014_\u2014 \u201cWe, tho undersigned members of the Finance Commitice, learn with regret and Alarm that the Legislative Assembly has passed an amendment to the charter of tho City of Montreal ukicring the legislation of last year regarding ti:e borrowing power of the city and extending the limit, We cannoy too strongly condemn any alieration of said bowers as nov only being a breach of faith, but against the best interests of the city of Montreal.Our delet bas already reached the highest limit which safely wiil warrant, and increased interest charges would mean increased taxation, 1fthe obii,aions in cen- nection withthe improvemenis or St.Antoine Street and St.Lambert Sureet are postponed until our re-ources will permit of their being carried out, the city wil no: be compelled to overreaci its borrowing Lowoers.\u201d Such was the resolution which Ald, Wilson Smith [proposal at an emergent and special meeting of the Finance Committee held yesterday afternoon and which was, after some discussion, signed by a majority of its members.The meeting had been called by a majority.of the members of the committee \u2014Ald.Wilson Smith, McBride, Savignac and Farrell-and not, as usual, by the chairman, Ald.Hurteau.All the members responded to the call, As soon as the members had taken their seats Ald.Hurtubise objected to the transaction of any business, as the meeting was illegal, twenty-four hours\u2019 notice not having been given to thé members.Ald.Wilson Smith\u2014\"\u2018i am surprised that such an objection should have been raised by a member of this committee.1f the twenty-four hours rule is to be enforced, then fully half the meetings of this committee have been illegal, for they have been called and held within that prescribed time.\u201d Ald.McBride concurred in these remarks.Ald.Hurteau said he regretted that no meeting could be lezally held, as a member had made an objection to it.As to previous meetings having been held on a notice shorter than the twenty-four hours that was prescribed, nobody had ever raised an objection to them.Since, however, all the members of the committee were present he would embrace the opportunity of briefly stating the position he had taken Defore the Legislature.He had told the legislators that he did not want any increase of the borrowing power beyond the $750,000 requirel to carry out the obligations imposed on the city by the Legislature at its previous session.He had asked that the city should be relieved of the necessity of widening St.Antoine Street and extending St, Lambert Street to the wharf.If these improvements were not insisted upon no increase of borrowing Power would be needed before two years.Ald, Wilson Smith reminded Ald.Hur- teau that an offer had beefRinade in the Council to compromise the St.Lambert Street extension project for $125,000.Ii that scheme were to be carried out it should be paid for by a special tax extended over a period of from five to ten years.A discussion arose as to the mode in which the payment for the widening and extension of streets should be made.The majority of the committee were in favor of the city raying one-half and the proprietors on each side of the street the other, Ald.Hurteau suddenly launched out into a denunciation of the Board of Trade, representatives of which had gone to Quebec to protest against the proposed increase of the borrowing power of the city.Its members were constantly meddling in the financial affairs of the city.They wanted to saddle the city with debt for improvements, but they objected to putting their hands in their pockets and.payinz their share of the cost, They wanted the city to pay the whole bill, Some of its members were personally interesteds Ald.McBride\u2014Some of the aldermen are personally interested in this borrowing powsr business.As to the Board of Trade its members have a perfect right to go down to Quebec and take steps to safo- guard the city\u2019s interests.It's a sin andl shame to ask the proprietors oi Bleury® and other streets to pay half the cost of widening, and to let the proprietors on other widened streets get off altogether by the payment of a smaller proportion.Ald, Wilson Smith then moved his resolution, hut Ald.Hufteau promptly declared it out of order.Ald.Raingille\u2014'The resolution can be signed by members of the Finance Committee, all the same.\u201d Ald.Wilson Smith\u2014*Will you sign it?\" All.Rainville\u2014*'] have not been following up the subject.\u201d Ald.Wilson Smith\u2014*I know you are against increasing the borrowing power.You have expressed yourself strongly to me against it.Ald.Rainville=\u2018\"Yes; I am arpinst an increase in tha borrowinz power, But there are some statements in that motion that 1 don\u2019t agree with I do agree with others.You have the majority of the committee with you without counting me,\" Ald.Savignac expressed himself heartily in favor of the motion.Ultimately the motion was simned by four out of the seven members of the committze, the sionatures being Ald, Wilson Smith, McBride, Savignac and Farrell.To Raise Sunken Treasure, Washington, D.C., Jan.9.\u2014The Treasury Department has awarded to Francis M.Epley, of East Orange, N.J., the contract for raixing the British frigate Hussar which struck-a rock and foundered: oft Fort Morris, or Stony Point, East River, N.Y., during the revolutionary war.The Hussar is supposed to have had on board £1,000,000 in British gold.Epley\u2019s compensation is to be ninety per cent.of all treasure found, the remaining ten per cent., together with whatever else is recovered to go the Government.What South Africa is After.Mr.Cuthbert McCallum, who has been a resident in South Africa for some fourteen years, has been in this and other leading cities of the Dominion, arranging with various prominent firms to represent them there.Amongst others he will represent the \u201cRadnor Water Company\u201d at the Cape, where there is already a demand for the water.Mr.McCallum sails from New York for Cape Town in a fortnight, taking with him some five car loads of Canadian produce, for which there is a demand in the Colony.PACIFIC CABLE.PRESIDENT CLEVELAND AND THE NECKAR ISLAND QUESTION.e HE IS FAVORABLE TO GREAT BRITAIN\u2019S REQUEST.Correspondence With Hawaii on the Sabject and a Message Thereon Sent to Congress, Washington, Jan.9\u2014The President, today, send to Congress another batch of Hawaiian correspondence supplementary to the Walker report.This last chapter is full of interest inasmuch as it discloses an effort being made by the British Government with the consent of the Hawaiian authorities to secure the lease of an island of the Hawaiian group, to be used as a cable station.This projected lease is explained by Minister Willis in several letters, beginning October | 13.In the firat \u2018letter Mr.Willis says that during the past week negotiations had been pending between the Hawaiian Government und representatives of Great Brituin in regard to an ocean cable between Canada and Australia, touching at Neckar Island or it Honolulu.He did not think that an a ;ccement would be reached at present owing to the clause in our treaty with Hawaii prohibiting the cession of any of the Islands to any foreign Government without our cousent.By December 3 the cable proposition seems to have taken full shape for on that date Mr.Willis writes, recalling his former reference to the subject and stating that the Hawaiian Govenment is of \u2018the opinion that \u2018t is stopped from considering the proposition by the British Commissioners by article 4 of the reciprocity treaty between Hawaii and our Government, and adds: \u2018\u2018lhis matter is now therefore at the request of this Government submitted to the consideration of our Government upon the question of its willingness to nullify the treaty by reciprocity by exempting Necker Island, French Frigate Shoals or Nihoa (Bird Island) from the operation of article 4 of the treaty which reads as follows: \u2018It is agreed on the part of His Hawaiian Majesty, that as long as this treaty shall remain in force, he will not lease, nor otherwise dispose of, nor create any lien'upon any port, harbor or other territory in his domlnions, nor grant any special privileges or rights of use therein to any power, state or government.\u2019 In this connection I enclose copies of the note of Mr.Hutch, Minister of Foreign Affairs and of correspondence between him and the cominissioners.\u201d Enclosed in Mr.Hatch\u2019s note is a letier from Messrs.Fleming and Mercer, the Cavadian and British commissioners tran- smifting a copy of the memorandum of agreement touching the cable.These gentlemen say they presume Mr.Hatch will bring the proposed arrangement to the attention of the United States Guvernment and ascertain whether it will give its consent.They hope that the Washington Government will be able to grant this upon proper representation.They endeavor to show the advantages that would accrue to the United States from direct cable communication with Honolulu and exceedingly low telegraph rates to Australia, all without contributing to the capital required for the cable or the heavy subsidies necessary for its operacion.The ubove correspondence was transmitted with the following message from the President : \u201c\u2018The attention of Congress is directed to the following statement contained in a communication addressed to the Hawaiian Government by representatives of Great Britain, \u2018We propose Lo inform the British Government of your inquiry, whether they would accept the sovereignity of Neckar Island or some other uninhabited island on condition that no subsidy is required from you.As we explained we have not felt at liberty to entertain that question ourselves, as we were definitely instructed not to ask for the sovereignty of any Island but only for a lease simply for the purpose of cable.\u2018I hope that Cougress will see fit to grant the request of the Hawaiian Government, and that our consent to the proposed lease will be promptly accorded.It seems to me we ought not by a refusal of the request to stand in the wav of the advantages to be gained by isolated Hawaii through telegraphic + communication with the rest of the world \u2014 especially in view of the fact that our own communication with that country would thereby be so greatly improved, without apparent detriment to any legitimate American interest.I submit herewith certain despatohes, from our minister at Hawaii, and the documents which accompanied the close.They disclose the fact that the Hawaiiau Government desires to lease to Great Britain one of the uninhabited Islands belonging to Hawaii, as a station for a submarine telegraph cable to be laid from Canada to Australia with a connection between the Island lcased and Honolulu.Both the Hawaiian Government and the repregentatives of Great Britain in this negotiation concede that the proposed lease cannot be effected without the consent of the United States.At the request of the Hawaiian Government this subject is laid before the Congress for its deiermination upon the question of so modifying the treaty agreement aboverecited as to permit the proposed lease.It will be seen that the correspondence, which is snbmitted between the Hawaiian and British negotiators, negatives the existence on the part of Hawaii of any suspicion of British unfriendliness or the fear of British aggression.(Signed) GROVER CLEVELAND.\u201d London, Jan.10.\u2014The Daily News this morning says, editorially: \u201c\u2018 President Cleveland has shown good feeling towards Great Britain, together with an enlightened sense of American interests, in his recommendations to Congress on the Hawaii cable.There seems to be no reason to doubt that Congress will take the same sensible, neighbourly view.\u201d The Times in a leader, says: \u2018\u201c Englishmen will gladly recognize President Cleveland's courteous and friendly tone.The concession would take nothing from America or any other power, while it would be a gratifying example of international courtesy and amity.On these grounds alone we should count with some confidence upon a favorable answer from the American Government.The cable would be a boon to the whole civilized world.American citizens in Hawaii or the United States would reap tne lion\u2019s share of the benefits.The New Caledonia cable scheme is hardly tangible envugh to justify French objection.By tho time the New Caledonia cable shall have been extended to America it may be hoped that the cable business shall have #Xpanded enough to provide it with a fair ghare of business.\u201d Mr.Senn Re-nominated, Cayuga, Ont., Jan.8.\u2014Patrons of Industry of Haldimand to-day re-nominated John

its bearing on the utilization of our forests.\u201d a paper prepared by T.J.Drummond, Montreal, was read by G.E.Drummond.It was technical, but outlined any possibilities in the charcoal industry in Canada.A unique suggestion was made that in Canada as in Sweden, national schools be established for the education of how to utilize the great Canadian forests in charcoal products.Mr.Drummond emphasized the fact that Canada possessed agreatnational asset inher forests.He suggested that vast districts should be set aside for the purposes of charcoal development, under the control of the Government, arguing that Canadians should nol be merely hewers of wood but should encourage by legisiation the manu.fucture of products from timber that are of profit within Canadian bounds.His great theme was that Canadians should pay more attention to carrying their timber to higher processes of manufacture rather than to shipping in the raw state His idea was that the Provincial Government should set aside large areas of land fron which merchantable timber was cut, and reserve it for the charcoal iron industry.Timber-limit holders retained large areas, and he thought that steps-should be taken by the Government to prevent the locking up by speculators of useful wood from the charcoal iron industry.The Fresident, Jno, Blue, asked the Secretary of the Society to take steps towards bringing Mr.Drummond\u2019s paper on Charcoal before the Provincial Government.À committee was appointed to arrange for a smoking concert to be held this evening, Mile End Elections.A lively mass meeting of the electors of St.Louis du Mile End was held last night.The issues of the municipal campaign were discussed by Messrs.Chamberland, Senecal, Martel, Villeneuve, Colloret, Brown, Brunet and Charles Beaubien.While the last three were speaking considerable uproar took place and for a time a free fight seemed imminent, but the meeting finally closed with cheers for the candidates.\u201c7 WILL WOMAN EVER WoO!

Iarger than those of the goose.The strongest muscle ina monkey's body is found in his prehensile tail.Certain parts of the hippopotamus\u2019 hide attain a thickness of two inches.The skin isthe only part of the human $ody that isnot hardened by age.Moles can swim with great dexterity, their broad forepaws acting as paddles.The swordfish does not use its terrible weapon as a dagger, but as a flail.Stydents of nature have never been able to explain the chameleon\u2019s change of color.The greatest velocity attained by a whale | when struck by a harpoon is nine miles an | hour.\u2018 Tusks of the mammoth have been found of a length of nine feet, measured along the curve.The whole body of a boa or other constrictor is a perfect network of powerful muscles.The natural life of an elephant is said to be 120 years.It is greatly shortened by captivity.Some naturalists say that the whale was once a land animal that took to the water for safety.Elephants annoyed by flies have often been known to break off a branch and use it as a fan.Oxen and sheep are believed by some stockmen to fatten better in company than when kept alone.The bones of very aged persons are said to have a greater proportion of lime than those of young people.The rhinoceros has a perfect passion for wallowing in the mud, and is usually covered with a thick coat of it.The moleis an excellent civil engineer.He always secyres his own safety by having several entrances to his dwelling.The lowest order of animal life is found in the microscopic jellyfish.It is simply a minute drop of gelatinous matter.Many birds have the trick of tumbling along on the ground ahead of a sportsman in order to draw him away from their nests.European marmots remain dormant during winter.Before becoming torpid they carefully cement the entrance to thetr dwelling.The outer layers of the alligator\u2019s skin are said to contain a large percentage of silica, hence the hardness of the animal\u2019s ide.Although on land a clumsy animal, the seal is wonderfully quick in the water,and in a fair race can generally catch almost any fish.With both the alligator and the crocodile the tail is the most formidable weapon.One stroke may break the legs of the strongest man.1t is said that the flesh on the fore-quar- ters of the beaver resembles that of land animals, while that on the hind-quarters has a fishy taste.It is believed by microscopists that the highest power.of their instruments have not yet revealed the most minute forms of animal life, The aye aye of Madagascar is remarkable chiefly for its eyes, which are larger* in proportion to its size, than those of any other creature.Voluntary muscles are almost always red; involuntary muscles are generally white, the most notable exception in the latter case being the heart.Snakes have the singular property of being able to elevate the head and remain without the slightest movement for many minutes at à time.A decapitated snail, kept in a moist place, will in a few weeks grow a new head, quite as serviceable and good looking as that which was taken away.Cats and several other animals have a false eyelid, which can be drawn over the eyeball, either to cleanse it or to protect it from too strong a light.The muscles of a pig\u2019s snout are exceedingly powerful for their size, and thus enable the animal to turn up very hard ground with the utmost ease.| A bat finds its way about without the assistance of its eyes.A blinded bat will avoid wires and obstructions as dexter ously as though it œuld see perfectly.When falling, as out of a tree or dcwn a steep declivity, bears will roll themselves into a close resemblance to a huge furry .ball, and thus escape without injury.The mole is not blind, as many persons suppose.Its eye is hardly larger than a pinhead, and is carefully protected from dust and dirt by means of enclosing hairs, No parental care ever falls to the lot of a single mémber of the insect tribe.In general the eggs of the insect are destined to be hatched long after the parentsare dead.The elephant is commonly supposed to be a slow, clumsy animal, but, when excited or frightened, can atsain a speed of twenty miles an hour and can keep it up for half & day.\u2018The blessing of Palestine is a small falcon, or hawk, which destroys the field mice.Were the hawks exterminated the human population would be obliged to abandon the country.The common housefly is often literally devoured by parasites, and it has been proved that these parasites are also infested with minute creatures thai threaten their destruction.In the mountains of Sweden, Norway and Lapland all vegetation would be destroyed by the Norway rats were it pot for the white foxes that make special game of the rodents.The horn of the rhinoceros does not grow from the bone, but is a mere excrescence of the skin, like the hair and nails.Itcan be separated fsom the skin by the use of a sharn kaifg.DINNER FOR TO-MORROW, \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 Blue Points.Celery.Olives.Radishes, Strained Chicken Okra Soup.Sweetbread Cutlcts.Green Beas.Broiled Turkey.Chicory Salad.- Ice Cream.Fancy Forms.Asrorted Cakes.Roquefort Cheese.pe Toasted Biscuits, \u2018ee, Broiled turkey is one of the dishes one seldom sees on à menu served in New York.To broil _ turkey have a clear, crisp fire, and a gridiron that stands at least four inches above the coals;

2, the Useless; and 3, the Mischiey- ous.Now, the shovelling and sweeping off of the snow down to the stones or asphalt, or even to the boards belongs to the category 3.There is no walking so pleasant as that on the smooth green sward; next to it, however, is that on the new fallen suow which yields a grateful sensation to the sole of the ioot.Last Sunday this could b: felt all over the three or four inches of snow which had fallen, not having been removed, but on the Monday the officious meddling had rendered many places dangerously smooth and the walking unpleasant.The fact is that after a three or four inches fall, the Stow shiald not be intertered with.\u2018lhe mischievous labor would le saved and the walkers spared not a few falls.The best system of walking, is that by balance, as in skating, under which rubbers, spikes, etc., are eschewcd to the advantage of the carpets and loors.\u2018the soles and heels of my chaussures are pertectly smooth, yet, I rarely fall, and if I do, I pick myself up unhurt, The only serfous danger in falling is to the back of whe head and to the spine.In a tall to either side or forwards, the body is protected Dy the arms; hence, 1ts balance should be kept in front of the feet, not by stooping, but carried erect with an inclination forward irom feet to head, The chest should be expanded by deep respiration which should not be impeded by, tightly fitting gannmentss The true secret or all dressing is, to so dress, that when dressed we shall 1cel as nearly as possible, as il naked, 1Nis applies equally to our feet gear, which is usually too tight and ill fittins Most people wear out the heets ot their boots first on the outsides, and the toes on the insides, showing am unevenness ot tread, which brings an undue pressure on the all of the foot which often becomes painful.\u2018The remedy, which is generally overlooked, is very, simple.In walking, turn the toes well outwards and lower the heels of the chaussure, or it ambitious to appear tall thicken the soles anteriorily to a corresponding depres, The soles ot all feet gear should be very full on the cutsides of the ball of the foot and on the outside of the heel, by which the running down of the boot to the outside will be prevented.\u2018Lhe cnly place where the boot may be made to tit snug though not tight, is over the instep, when the foot will keep 1ts place every where else and not wabble.All feet gear should I» made large enough to aumit ol a slipsole, which will cover up all nails, pegs or «other inequalties, protect the foot and give it a smooth ingress and egress.It is also protection against wet and cold, being casily dried or warmed outside tha boots.\u2018I'he inner sides of all felt gear should be a straight line from toe to toe, indented for the hollow of wae toot, so that when the feet are brought together there shall be no V hetween the toes, as is usually the case, \u2018The lasts on which the boots are made have not commonly timber enough in them toward the toes, thus preventing the play which nature intended, of those appendages in the boots.I was once present when a French surgeon, about to amputate the diseased toes of a patient said: \u2018\u201cl'oes have, heretofore, been considercd a necessity, but they aic really orly a luxury and my patient will do very wcll without them.\u201d They are, however, a luxury with which 1 think, \u2018he himselr would find hard to dispense, Une Classification of animals is from their hands, feet, claws, etc.Thus, man is the only specimen of the so-called, Biamana, (twg handed class).The ape from whom, according to Darwin, we are more immed- iatcly descended, belongs to the Quad.1umana, (four handed) class.\u2018L'he ail- ference, however, is owing to hypercivil- ization as many individuals, and even races of men approach in tneir feet to to the Quadrumana.\u2018fhus, | have seen men in equatorial regions, where the climate does not exact tect clothing, with rings on their toes, equally useful with those on our fingers, and which sometimes become a source ot great danger, thus, I have known rings to be cut ofl to save the fingers and a iriend of mine had a finger torn oft by the catching of his ring on a button when decending from an omnibus, necessitating amputation above the knuckle joint and further.| met with a gentleman in a picture gallerC, who from congenital absence of the hands, had grown up, I shall not say, quadrumanal, but .s fect were to bins, both manus £nd pedal, He was by no means an inferior artist and amused me by drawing his card from his pochet and presenting it to me with his foot.The fact is, that civilization, running riot, may, eventually, by bad shoeing, deprive us of oy toes and render us solipedes like the horse, To rcturn to our snow shoveling; it is far better to do too little than too much.After a heavy all it will be thought necessary to shovel oll the snow which should be well thrcwn out onto the roadway, not piled up, parapet like against the sidewa.«, It is then best disposed of by pressing down with a large roller, the great diameter of which wii! render it heavy enough to immediately make the walking and driving good, and in the wider streets the snow will need no removal in the spring, when it will be wanted pretty late for sleighing, singularly, as luck will have it.Since writing the above, a very saa case in point has come my way, a stout heavy woman, slipped and fcll on the back of her head, neck, spine and hips, causing damage which even threatened to become permanent.So violent was the shock to the head that she felt as if all her teeth were loose.Unfortunately similar cases are, by no means very rare.VIATOR, January 5, 1805.Try Southern Straight Cut cigarettes.10c per package tee An Old Montreal Boy's Success.Mr.J.W.Little, who was for many years with Messrs Mackay Bros., of this city, has just been elected Mayor of London, Ont.Mr.Little was born and brought up in Montreal, aud left some years ago to enter business in London, where his firm, Messrs.Robertson, Little and Co., do one of the largest wholesale dry goods businesses in the West.Mr.Little is also President of the Huron and Erie Loan Co., President of the Western Fair, and holds large railway interests in Ontario.He is a great worker, and we congratulate London on her selection of a Mayor.No one knows better than those who have used Carter\u2019s Little Liver Pills what relief they have given when taken for dyspepsia, dizziness, pain in the side, constipation, and disordered stomach.Try Southern Straight Cut C igarettes, 10c per package.IN THE si 3% PALATIO, HAPTER XXXIV.(Continued), \u201cSi, replied Bettina;

while her temper, after the first few days, appeared quite of the character described by Bettina.July was now approaching, and lene de.a, undaunted by last year's sulier- ing, prepared to spend another summer in the Italian Capital.As yet the weauier was only brilliant, not oppressive; and both she and Ino had now too suany interests in lile to trouble themselves about a little heat more or less, The foreign visitors, however, were departing trom the city, leaving it pretty much to the workers, and io those whose home it was.The last few months had done much to better Ino\u2019s -position, and to put his name before the world as that of a rising artist, and his growing success was a source of much exultation to his two in tne Palazzo.It was often a theme for congratulation on Benedetta\u2019s lips; and she was talking of it one afternoon, as together they made their way home from the pic- ture-gallery where she had ior some time Leon engaged in copying, and whence he had been to fetch her.The streets were crowded, for there had heen some races that day in the vicinity; and many a passer-by turned to glance admiringly at the beautiful face upiifted so eagerly to his.\u2018Another commission, Ino?\u201d she was saying.\u2018Why, you will be a great man even before we thought.Nay, 1 begin to think you are a great man already.\u201d He was about to rcply, when ine sound of some werds uttered behind caused him to pause.\u201cAh!\u201d said a voice, as laughed sneeringly, \u2018\u2018that\u2019s just in front, who put up the new statue at the entrance to the Palazzo L\u2014\u2014.Goes in for being a genius;

and with some Cu cu.y checking the quick retort which rose to ms lips, contented himsell with squaring his, elbow so as to force tge conte to step aside into the roaaway.But .ue latter was in no mood to re ceive a sebunt quietly, neither was he sufficient of a gentleman to refrain from opfn quarreling on the score of a young girl\u2019s presence.in the company ot his two friends also\u2014nien of his own stamp\u2014he felt it necessary to uphold his dignity, and perfectly convenient to employing a bullyirg tone, He was not sorry, too, perpaps to include the girl who had repulsed his attentions in the insult he desired to pat upon her companion.t*How now, Sisnrore Scultore, do you require all the pathway to yourself?\u201d he asked.of pushing gentlemen into the street?» boit Tcpty vus quiet enough.its owner the teJiow, Not a \u201c1 shall certainly push those into the street who cannot make room for a lady.» A loud laugh followed his words.They were now close to the angle of their own via, and Ino hurried gene- detta forward, not, however, in time to save her overhearing light words, said with the intent, as he well knew, to wound not only his own but her self- respect.They had no sooner reached the corner than he paused a moment, speaking hurriedly.\u201cGo in,\u201d he said;

(2) improved their condition and conduct; (3) shortened the hours of sale; (4) stopped public house drinking by per.Bons under 18 years of age; (5) raised the price and lowered the strength of cheap spirits; (6) insured a standard quality and measure; (7) stopped drinking on credit; (8) provided good food in the public houses; (9) eliminated the element of personal gain behind the bar, and abolished competition.The refusal of liquors to persons already intoxicated, though strictly .enjoined on public hcuse manager: and doubtless with considerable efiect, is od ket not strictly carried out.Since 1875, the first year in which the Bolag obtained control of all the spirit licenses, the annual consumption per head has fallen 27.4 to 13.2 litres, according to firures which are open to certain criticism.The population taken into account ought to include the country districts round Go- thenburg.The true figures should be about 18 litres pen head in 1875, against 9 litres in 1893.But the correspondent points out that, though the consumption of spirits has fallen off, drunkenness has been increasing in Gothenburg of late years.\"Go- thenburg,\u2019® he says, *is a very drunken place.Personal observation, the opinion of residents, police, and medical evidence, all Point to the same conclusion.I have seen more drunkenness in a Scotch town on Saturday night, Put never in an English one.Last year, out of 1,273 admissions to the General Hospital, 104 were cases of disease directly caused by excessive drinking, and the police returns show that 2,871 separate individuals were fined for drunkenness.\u2019\u2019 Visible drunkenness in the strects is a punishable offence in Gothenburg; and the proportion of convictions to population was 22.5 in 1891, as against 22.1 in 1865.The revival of drunkenness is attributed to the increasing use of beer under the restrictions imposed on the spirit traffic.That there is a great deal of home drinking is proved hy the increasing prevalence of drunkenness among women and children.But the correspondent says that the drunkenness from beer is much less harmful than that due to spirit drinking.It lacks the body and mind destroying powers of the stronger liquor.The Gothenburg system has been in operation for seventeen years and its results according to the findings of this correspondent, can be summed up about as follows: Diminution of spirit-drinking with a corresponding increase in beer drinking; and the deflection of the profits arising from the selling of alcohol from the pockets of saloon-keepers to public purposes.This is something of an advantage; but it is hardly sufficient to secure a general adoption of the system outside ot Sweden.\u2014 TO HUMBUG THE FARMERS.The National Policy isheld by Conservative writers and speakers to be a great boon to the Canadian farmers because it bars out American competition.The duties on farm produce were put in the tariff of 1879 to humor the farmers with the thought that if they had to bear increased taxation for the benefit of the struggling infant industries they would in turn be able to sell their products at an enhanced figure.Though the illusion thus created has been pretty thoroughly destroyed by the experiences of the farmers during the past sixteen years, the argument is still put forward with all the old-time assurance.This argument in outline runs something like this : the Con\" servative party has created a home market for Canadian products, and it has, by imposing duties on American products, saved the Canadian-farmers from a competition for this market, which would have been disastrous to them.It is based, it will be noted, on the assumption that American agricultural products being cheaper than those of Canada, the Canadian farmer would not be able to withstand competition.While a comparison of market prices in adjoining frontier towns is all that is needed %, demolish this theory, we are willing to assume, for present argumentative purposes, that the Conservatives are right.Starting, therefore, from the postulate that the Canadian farmer's only safeguard from starvation is the homo market, which, however, he would not be able to keep in open competition with the American farmer» let us consider the effect of a provision which was added to the Canadian Customs law in 1879 and was re-enacted last session upon the occasion of the revision.Section 11 of the Customs Act says that \u201cgreen or ripe apples, beans, buckwheat, peas, potatoes, rye, rye flour, hay, vegetables dry or fresh salted shall be free of duty when imported into Canada from the country of production, upon proclamation of the Governor-in-Council, which may be issued whenever it appears to his satisfaction that such country imposes no duty on the like product or products imported from Canada.\u201d Though not so expressly in terms this is a mandatory enactment by which the Canadian Government must give up our precious home market tothe American farmers on demand of the American Congress.If Canadian farmers cannot compete with Americans, as the Conservatives declare, it 18 extraordinary that a protectionist Government, which sconstantly proclaims its solicitude for the welltare of the farmers, should invite, by a standing statutory enactment, a competition which would be ruinous to them.Either the Government believes that the Canadian farmer is quite able to take care of himself, in which case the National Policy duties are useless; or it is so indifferent at heart to the well-being of the farmers that it is prepared to sacrifice them.There is no similar provision in the act about any manufactured article, though the new American tariff holds out the olive branch in respect to an important Canadian industry.Section 591 of the American tariff provides that plows, tooth and disc harrows, harvesters, reapers, agricultural drills and planters, mowers, horse rakes, cultivators, threshing machines, and cotton gins shall be admitted into the United States free of duty, provided that the country trom which they are imported lays no import duty on like articles of American manufacture;

it was not even unusual; but it was injudicious and inconsiderate; alike hurtful to the Universityand neglectful of the convenience of a body of hardworking anfl useful men.ENGLAND'S DUTY TOWARDS THE TURK.Nothing better becomes England and England\u2019s Grand Old Man than the pronounced attitude which he has taken with regard to the ontrages committed by the abandoned Turk upon his fellow subjects, the Armenians.The civilized world is horrified at the revelations.Mr.Gladstone's sentiments are variously criticised in England, just as anything he should say upon any subject would be criticised.Those who declare for freedom when slavery prevails; those who call for light in the dark places, those who are, with the weak against the strong, all fail to escape the stingof the critic.But moral reform continues its progressive march nevertheless.The effete and inhuman Turk has no lived as a nation for some decades past because of his recognized right to live.In spite of his liability and his deserving to be wiped out, his forfeited right of existence has been maintained because of physical exigencies affecting the arrangement of the political map of Europe.The wenkness of the Turk is his strength; and he seems to take full advantagerof his immunity.The recent outrages, which if half true are too horrible to contemplate, were against one of the nationalities of Asiatic Turkey.This only goes to shew that not alone what is known by the phrase \u201cTurkey in Europe,\u201d but Turkish rule in its entirety strikes the sense of the civilized world as a subject tor enlightened and unrelenting discipline, The press despatches say that the Turkish government is about to call upon England to disavow the utterances of Mr.Gladstone: That is probably the throwing over of a sand-bag to enable the collapsing balloon to float a little longer.If there were anything worthy of public support in the attitude ot those papers that have been constrained to take the part of apologist for the \u2018\u2018un\u2019 speakable Turk\u2019 because of the humanitarian attitude of Mr.Gladstone, they would not Rheumatism Cured \u201cIn July last I was taken with rheumatism in its worst form.Local physicians treated Mme, but their remedies did not giv: me any rolicf.I vas advised to give Hood\u2019s Sar- gapariila a trial, which I did.T take great pleasure in stating that two bot- tics gave marked re- WH lef, Continuing reg- - ht ik {ha 1 .Ar, Byron Crendoll b oid 4 thie ined: tured.Wrileaficted I was Sequeantiy sblined to use cruzdbes.cannot recommand Hood's Earsapariila too hiv.BYRON CRaNDrLI, engineer at Water Words, Toronto JUrcHon,Ont Hood\u2019s=# Cures KMood's Piils cure ail lives ills.25c, lish Artists at the Descriptive Catalogues now ready.AITKEN Established 1847, The subscribers are pleased to announce that they will hold the Annual INSTITUTE HALL.TNIVERSITY STREET, Corner of Dorchester Street, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, Jan.10,11 and 12 AT 7.30 O'CLOCK EACH EVENING.ARTISTS REPRESENTED-Yeend King, Edwin Hayes, Ernest Parton, G.5.Walters, Horace Van Ruith, Thos.Pyne, Yglesias, E.Holmes, J.M.Bromley, A.W.salon, Carter Rea Re Walton, W.C.Estall, Claude Hayes, Julius Olssen and other well-known artists., EE Pictures on free exhibition at the Fraser Hall from 7 o'clock Tuesday Evening until 6 o'clock Thursday afternoon.EVENING SALES ONLY\u2014The entire collection will be sold by and SATURDAY, January, 10th, 1ith, and 12th, at 7.30 ©@'clock.FRASER H.T., ANNUAL AUCTION SALE HIGH CLASS PAINTINGS By Eminent Artists of England.Sale of Oil and Water-Color Raintings by Eng- J.Aumonier, G.C.Haite, James E.Grace, Arthur Hopkins, Schafer, Charles Stuart, ad, Anderson Hague, Peter Ghent, C.L.Saunders, Frank Thos.Huson, Vincent P.auction on the evenings of THURSDAY, FRIDAY M.HICKS & CO.Auctioneers, JANUARY e e x SALE 2% Reduced Income means Reduced Purchasing Power.We meet you Half Way Giving 20 P.C, DISCOUNT on all cash sales during the month of January.Remember a dollar saved is a dollar gained;

and that her people may be saved for the future from outrages that do not come within ¢ven the license, to say nothing of the liberty, of civilization.Some people are extenualing the diabolical acts of the Turk by pointing to the lynching outrages, upon negroes chiefly, in some parts of the Southern States.With regard to every possible question there are always to Le found persons advancing with an air of seriousness the most absurd contributions to the discussion.The lynching practice, too common in some parts of the United.States, is a great reproach to the administration of justice and to the people of that country; but it is merely crime merely personal offending against the criminal laws of the country.If the United States soldiers, and magistracy and police were to take an occasioual turn at the butchery.of Indian, or negro, or Mexican, or creole or any other type of the population, for any reason or for none, and the United States Government were found to be too weak or too callous to prevent their agencies from indulging in public slaughter and outrage, then the civilized world would call for interference and would probably see that interference was effectual, The civilized world is now looking to the European custodizns of the \u2018Sick Man\u201d to gee to it that their ward shalt be restrained from this weakness of laying violent hands upon those who have the misfortune to be his own.They are feeding wheat to hogs in the Western States, while in Newfoundland men are driven by hunger to riot and pillage.The Gazette may cogitate upon the probability that however the Herald ascertained the weight of the National Policy walk over any body much longer.Somebody is putting sult in the streets.Whoever does so lays the salt on the street car tracks, whence it is carried over the rest of the roadway.The result is that horses\u2019 feet are injured and the rubber overshoes of foot passengersare ruined, This is a public nuisance and it should be stopped.The Electrie Club, The third annual meeting of the Montreal Electric Club was held on Jan.7th.The Secretary Treasurer's report for the past year showed the club to be in a flourishing condition.There is a good balance in the treasury and the membership is now large.The election of officers took place with the following results : President, W, B.Shaw, Montreal Electric Co.;

Hall last night.The meeting was the outcome of the long agitation of the I.ondon meat dealers against the attempt of American shippers to abolish the customary tizde allowance of a pound in every quarter of meat to compensate for the loss hy shrinkage in transit and in cutting up, which is regarded as the thin end of a wedge aiming to capture the control of the London market, Sir Albert K.Rollit, President of the Chamber, presided.He said there was not a sound reason for the proposed change, which meant a loss of £100,000 to London and £1,000,000 yearly to the Whole country.Sir Albert declared that the trade here must do its utmost to increase the supplies of meat from Canada, the colonies, and such countries as Denmark.ENGLISH DEALERS WILL FIGHT.London, Jan.9.\u2014The meeting yesterday evening of the meat and cattle section of the London Chamber of Conunerce, in Memorial Hall has served to bring out a storm in regard to American meat, and the American business methods.The Dally Telegraph's statement that the *tAmerican beef kings after half ruine ing British husbandry, now coolly propose to take an additional million from British traders ant consusers,\u201d is repeated on zll sides.In an interview with Chairman Cooper of the cattle trade secs tion of the London Chamber of Commerce, he is quoted as saying: \u201c\u2018if it was merely a question of no abatement, there ts no doubt that the retailers would have accepted the situation.But it is viewed by many as marking the beginning of a series of other encroachments on trade, The Americans go so far as to say that not only shall the salesmen be deprived of the pound and a quarter allowance in every quarter of meat, hitherto allowed ir order to compensate for the loss by shrinkage in transit and cutting up, but he must not make such an allowance to his customers.This is only the first step towards obtaining control of the market, ané when it suits their fancy, to corner trade.\u201cThe reason the \u2018Americans have \\btained such a hold on the English market is due to the fact that they have sent meat to it perfectly regardless of the price at which it was sold.This was merely to create a demand.But, in so doing, they have practically forced English meat clean out of it.\u2018There are only two sources of supply available for the London market, excluding, of course, the 1rozên stuff.One is America, and the other is Scotland.England, is not in it at all.ahe American importers, have their principal centres at Liverpool and at Frepuürord, near London, where thelr stock is landed and slnuçhtered, .at they ale aiming at undoubtedly is to drive every one out ot the trade, ii they can possibly do so, in order to create a monopoly.\u2018Lhey regulate not only the wholesale, but the retail prices in America.\u201d meat DEBS ISSUES À MANIFESTO Xe Shricks for Social Freedom From a County Jail.Woodstock, Ils, Jan.9\u2014Eugene V.Debs, George W.Howard, Silvester Keili- her, Louis W.Rogers, William W.Burns, James Hogan ard Leroy Goodwin, are confined in the Mchenry County Jail.Unless the Supreme Court of the United States grant a writ of habeas corpus, which the defendants will ask for Text weck, Mr.Debs will continue here for six, and the others for three months.Last evening Debs issued this manifesto to the American people: In going to jai :for participation on the late strike, we have no regrets to express.No ignominy attaches to us on account of this sentence.\u2018Candor compels me to characterize the whole proceedings, as infamous.There is not a scrap of testimony to show that one of us violated any law, and if we are guilty of conspiracy, why are we punished for contempt.\u201cI would a thousand times rather be accountable for the strike than for the decision.\u2018We are but the mere instrumentalilies in the revolutionary process in operation through which industrial slavery 1s to he abelished, and economic freedom established.\u2018then the starry banner will symbolize, as it was designed to symbolize, social, political, religious and economic emancipation Irom the thraldom of tyranny, oppression and degradation.\u201d THE SEIZURE PROPERLY MADE, Concinsively Shown Thut the Boat Was in Canadian Waters.Buffalo, Jan.9.\u2014The News prints today the opinion of Judge MacDougall, in the famous case of a seizure of the tug Giase, cof Dunkirk, N.Y,, in which ft is shown cenclusively that th¥ boundaries between the United Statos and Canada run through the cent-3 ot the fakes, that tbe tug was fishing in the Canadian waters, anu therctors, was by law forfeit to the Crown, \u2018lhe Judge says: It was established hy the evidence that a line drawn from Port Col- borne, on the Cauadian shore to * Dunkirk, on the American shore would intersect the boundary Jgne about 13 miles from Port Colborre L@ nt, A Royal Victoria Hospital Nurse, The Toronto Empire says: Citizens will be relieved to Know that in every instance the wives and families où the injured firemen are in comfortable circumstances, I visited their various homes yesterday, and received personal assurance to this effect from the iips of wives and dqpghters.Mr.Smedley lies at his cosy home on Nassau Street, carefully attended by his family, who are thankfully happy that his injuries are not as serious as was at tirst

yesterday for the disinterment of the body of Mrs.Spicer.It will be remembered that the deceased was a Roman Catholic living at Caugh- nawaga.She became a Protestant, but shortly afterwards was taken ill, and on her death bed a few weeks ago once more returned to Catholicism.Her children, however, buried her in the Protestant cemetery at Lachine.This did not suit intimate friends who carried the case to the Archbishop.His Grace, through the Courts, obtained the order for disinterment and Hesterday the body was re-in- terred in the Catholic cemetery at Caugh- nawaga.CAUGHT IN THE ACT.John A.Groses Protection Saves Sena\u201d tor Drummond From Robbery.A daring robber was cauglit in the residence of Hon.G.A.Drummond, 874 Sherbrooke Street, early yesterday, thanks to the clectrical protection of the John A.Grose electric system.The burglar, who gave the name of Ed.Hayes, while entering the hall door of the house, rung the alarm in John À.Grose\u2019s office, and knew notthat hehad trappedhim- self.Meanwhile Mr.Grose sent two officers up and seized Hayes just ashe was getting ready for business.The prisoner was brought before Judge Dugas.The accused when asked what he had to say, informed the Judge tbut he was per- fectiy innocent of any evil doing and that he had just arrived from Lewiston, Me., the same day.He said that he went to the house because of an invitation from the conchman to stop the night with him they being old friends.Ihe accused was remanded to enable his story to be enquired into.ST.LOUIS ENQULTE.Master Carters Subjected to Examination.After an

volume of business is so lamertably narrow that there is absolutely nothing to report.It is pretty difficult to sum up the exact position of the English market, though the theory that it is suffering from excessive supplies is reasonable and is generally accepted.Local shippers, with but few exceptions, report a complete absence of orders.In New York shippers have received orders for under priced goods,and during the past week they have fillel (hem to the cxtent of 2,000 boxes at Ge to 8c.No enquiry has been noted for the better qualities.The cheese situation in New York is reported as follows by the Commercial Bulletin: \u201cWhile the market is not specially an active one, homeo trade buyers as a rule are only taking such lots as are actually needed for current requirements; still jobbers as u rule are not carrying any quantity of stock, and generally in want of a few cheese to run them along, so that reduction in stocks gradually going oy is considered fairly satisfactory for the season, and the tone of the market continues fully ae firm as heretofore.Exporters are showing continued interest in under grades, mostly large part skims, and probably 2,000 boxes have been placed so far this week, mostly at 6c to 8c.\u201d The receipts and exports of cheese from New York for the dates mentioned are as follows: Receipts.Exports.Pkgs.Lbs, For week ending Jan, 8.13,321 345,003 Same

high as $5.65.Under qualities are noted at about $5.30.Pork\u2014Lerd\u2014A moderate jobbing demand is reported for Canada\u2019 short pork, but the tendency is rather easy, owing to the liberal

Robertson.There are only twelve seats on the Council, but nearly twice that number of nominations have been made with a probability of others being posted within the next few days.The tight for the treasurership is going to be hot.Both sides, however, claim a majority and of course treat the result as a foregone conclusion.It is not likely that any other man will enter the field for this office, so that the \u201cworkers\u201d can estimate the situation to a nicety.Severaladditionaldonationshavebeenmade to the Thompson fund, at the Secretary\u2019s office, swelling the total subscription to $6,174.The largest amount subscribed recently was $600.The spirit of expectancy and hope manifested by the bulls at the late bulge seems to amuse the fordone conclusion beara hugely.One of the latter said to-day : \u201cI think the market is more likely to go down than up.Look at the wheat in sight.It is enor- mous\u2014121,000,000 bushels.New York has'nt been shipping anything, either,

SUPPLIES.A VERY LARGE STOCK IS CARRIED IN LIVERPOOL.The genera! theory is that the dullness in the cheese situation is due to the large did a year ago.A cable today said: Cheese market only steady, demand light for ull grades; 51s top price for finest fall, The result of the official stocktaking for uarter ending December 31, 1894, is as lowe: 1,475 tubs of American and Canadian butter and
