and it is estimated that at leas four thousand in addition had forced themselves into the immense auditorium, Indeed Manager Lavigne estimated that there were 14,000 persons present It was the boast of Toronto on the recent visit to that city of Mr.Laurier, that within the walls of the Massey Hall there had gathered the greatest indoor meeting ever held in Canada, but last night's gathering robbed it of its pre-eminence.It was no assemblage of \u2018\u201c Grits\u201d; it was a meeting of the people.Tory struggled with Liberal to pass the portals of the hall, and sat enthralled by the eloquence of the Liberal Chief ; and the enthusiasm evoked was so spontdneons aud so overwhelming that it presaged victory in the Montreal constituencies.THE PROCESSION.By six o'clock the East End streets began to take on a lively appearance, aud an hour later-the procession began its march from the St.Jean Baptiste Hall.The Club Mercier had the van, and other Clubs fell in on the way until when the procession swurig from St.Lawrence into Craig Street, it was half-a-mile long, though divided into two columns, one on each side of the street, car tracks.Each member of the procession waved a flaming torch, and the glow of thousands of these lit up the streets with a war-like glare.The Clubs taking part in the procession were the Mercier, Papineau,Chenier, Dorion, Laurier and National; then followed the Liberal students of the city; and behind came the public.There were two or three bands in the procession, and flags were displayed.The sidewalks along the streets followed were black with people who answered cheer with cheer.It was an overwhelming demonstration of the fact that Liberalism has a host of followers in Montreal.PASSING THE HERALD OFFICE.At 7.45 the first section of the torchlight procession reached the Herald office.As the two thoueand passed by the sight was such as seldom witnessed In a parliamentary campaign.The Herald was loudy cheered.The procession turned up St, Peter Street and by the time it reached St.James it was jointed by other until it nam- bered at least 5,000.souls.It must be remembered that these patriotic people were present only to show by their presence the love they bore their leader\u2014 they wished to hear him, but rather did they desire to show the people in general that they were true to him and his principles, and it was this motive that actually banished them from the scene of the chieflain\u2019s triumph \u2014 there was absolutely no chance to get into Sohmer Park by the time the procession arrived.It was packed to the utmost capacity and that means about 12,000 people.Among the first to arrive at the \u201cHall\u201d were the members of the Club National and friends, about 700 strong, headed by Wilfred Mercier, the president.Then came the Liberal club with its officers and members, followed by the Laurier, Letellier and Mercier clubs, _ At 8.10 headed by a band of music playing \u201cGod Save the Queen.\u201d Hou.Mr.Laurier, Mr.James Sutherland, M.P., Hon.Mr.Joly de Lotbiniere and Mr.Wilfred Mercier, stepped into the first sleigh and Started for the park.The societies quickly ined up, and in two minutes one of the greatest signs of the times the country has teen known wag on its way to bear witness \u20ac coming victory of Her Majesty\u201d Loyal Opposition, y sere ON THE PLATFORM, Leading Liberals of the Montreal Dise trict Present.The chair was occupied by Wilfred Mer oier, President of the Club National.On 18 right were Mr Laurier, J Israel Tarte, = ia A Bruneau, M P, and on his left po oly, C Devlin, M P, L P Brodeur, MP.TEE others on the platform were Hon ;

Agriculture, industry, commerce.Down with monopolies.Let us put down the hydra of corruption.\u2018Weare Canadians.Wilfrid Laurier.We want work for all, Equal rights for all.Toryism\u2014that\u2019s the enemy.Lafontaine\u2014Baldwin.Long live the Queen.THE LEADER ARRIVES.When Mr.Laurier and his escort arrived about 8.30 it was almost impossible for them to effect an entrance.His appearance on the platform was the signal for an unparalleled outburst of applause.And no man could look without a thrill of pride on the vast audience before him.The ground floor was packed, every seat was occupied and the aisles were filled with enthusiastic Liberals, who remained standing all evening, The gallery, both aisles and seats, was packed in a similar way.Even the roof was invaded by the host.The iron girders held hundreds in sitting and lying postures, while pillars and cross beams along the sides were black with men clinging to their coign of vantage.From the stage it appeared one seething mass of men.When the cheering had partly died away, Mr.Bruneau, the vigorous member for Richelieu, jumped to the front and shouted **Vive Laurier,\u201d a cry which instantly reverberated from thousands of throats.When this outburst had subsided he jumped again to the front and called for cheers for Mr.Joly, and again the scene of enthusiasm was repeated.Among the ladics on the plattorm was Madame Laurier, who must have shared the pride felt by her distinguished husband.Wiltrid Mercier, the chairman, opened the meeting.He smd: ** Allow me first to express my emotion and joy at the sight of a demonstration unprecendented in the history of our country.I see here people of every class, of every race in Montreal here to.night.Whatever be our position in society, whatever our politics or religious convictions, it is our common duty to work THE CHAIRMAN, WILFRED MERCIER.for the good and prosperity of our country.All lands, ancient and modern, have had their great men who have thus worked.Our neighbors of America have had Washington, Webster, Grant and many others: Canada has not remained behind, amongst those already departed are: Papineau, Lafontaine, Dorion, Mercier (applause); amongst those who remain with us I specially name the Hon, Wilfrid Laurier, our guest of the evening.(Great cheering.) He is one of those men whose past is a guarantee of their future, and he is the chief of that Liberal party whose sole object is to work for the good of our country.+I shall not.try this evening to appeal to race traditions, but still I shell specially call on the French-Canadian Conservatives and ask them whether they should not join us in raising one of us, a French-Canadian, to the highest position in the Dominion.\u201d AN ADDRESS.The Honorable Wilfrid Laurier was then introduced by Mr.Wilfred Mercier.He was received with prolonged and enthusiastic applause.Mr.Thos.Cote then came furward to present the Liberal Leader with an address on behalf of the students.They were glad, he said, of am opportunity to offer their MONTREAL DAILY HERALD, TUESDA .ESCORTING THE SPEAKERS TO THE HALL a Y, FEBRUARY 19, 1895.aily At eval MORNING EDITION.80° in the Shade Is no more consistent with January than a box of inferior un-lightable matches is with a well - regulated house.E.B.Eddy's Matches are not of this kind.They arethe best.PRICE ONE CENT.Tespects to their chief and to assure him of heir devotion.\u201cYour name,\u201d read the address, is synonymous in our youthful imagination with the prosperity and hopeof the country.You are the personification of great ideas, which are the basis of our future hopes.One of those ideas is the fraternal union of all the races and of all the creeds, so that the population may form a strong people, and that Canada may become glorions, prosperous and powerful.Your principles are those of Baldwin and Lafontaine, aud vou have inherited them; they shall serve us a basis for your trinmph and for the prosperity of the country.\u201d The students told the hon.gentleman that his device, \u2018Let us be Canadians above all,\u201d is also theirs; for Canada can prosper only by the union of the various elements that compose her population.The rights of the minority should be protected as well as those of the majority.\u201cIn the fight, which shall soon be commenced, count on our devotion and endeavors, and on the ardor of our youthful years, We can do little, but we will go courageously into the fight, so that we may contri bute to your victory, which will place in your hands the destinies of our country.\u201d A BIT OF A SCARE.As Mr.Thos.Cote concluded his address the andience became disturbed.The crowd was enormous, and they surged upon one another.An immense balcony over the hall of Sohmer Park was packed with a surging mass of humanity, To look at them from the floor of the house, one would have thought they were mounted on one anothers backs.They were also enthusiastic and they gave vent to theirenthusiasmin cheers and applause.Suddenly several planks of the flooring gave way beneath the great weight.One man was precipitated to the floor below, but he was not hurt, as the height is not quite fifteen fect.Naturally the crowd imagined that the entire balcony was about to come down with them, and they hastened to leave their places.Those under the balcony, sce- ing the flooring break over their heads, and fecling the boards in several places come down upon them also hastened to get out.Some surged to the back, and some to the front.It was, of course, impossible to suppose that the motion of several hundred people mm the back of the hall would not impel the rest of the multitude in some direction, especially as they were unaware of the danger, if anv, that menaced them.Consequently several hundred surged upon the stage, greatly disturbing those who were congregated there, and walking over those who happened to be in the front rows of the auditorium; the Press was badly hustled about, and many of the representatives of the newspapers came out.of the stampede in a delapiduted condition.The accident wus not due to any faulty construction of the gallery.The main part of this gallery is walled at the sides by a six foot partition.Between this partition and the wall of the building is a space of six or ten feet, which is.not intended to bear any people.This partition extends the whole depth of the balcony at both sides.The crowd surged over this partition, and naturally crashed through the thin flooring.Order was very soon restored, for the Hon.Wilfrid Laurier mounted on a table and addressed the crowd, telling them that there was no danger and that they shouid remain quietly in their places.He then began his address.MR.LAURIER.The Liberal Leider Expounds is Party's Policy.Mr.Laurier, whose rising to speak was\u2019 the signal for a dealening outburst of applause, expressed the genuine surprise with which he witnessed the vast concourse before him.He had, he said, | seen other great demonstrations in his | time\u2014in the County of Champlain, in St.! Rochs and Sauveur, which ha had the honor to represent in Parliament.When he had occasion to make a speech in To- -ronto a fortnight ago he saw what he, thought was the largest demonstration | ever held in a public hall.(Cheers.) But the gathering which he saw before him that night was greaten even than that in Toronto.He was grateful to those.who had come there in such larue num-| bers.He also thanked the ladies for! their attendance.Their attendance tend ed to elevate the tone of the meeting; and besides, when they had the ladies! with them they were sure to have victory, also with them.«Cheers.) He had Len ; astonished recently when he wag askdl | if he were in favor of woman sufirage; jor he knew that in the Province of Quebec women ever reigned mucweme, (Applause.) In this Province there was a, proverb to the effect that what woman wishes God wills.He had not come there to spcak to them of Liberal ideas, | He had come rather to speak to them in, the name of freedom, justice, and equity.| (Loud applause.) These ideas and principles were well represented Ly the names which were emblazoned on the plat- form\u2014Papineau and Lafontaine.(Cheers.) They were the ideas and principles which had animated the people of Quebec, since their day, eclipsed though they had been temporarily.He said temporarily; for tif he read arizht the signs of the times\u2014and that immense demonstration was one ob them\u2014the sun of Papineau and Lafontaine was about to rise once more with all the refuigence with which it or- tginally beamed upon their country.(Applause.) There was no need for him to repeat to them the history of those two illustrious men and their time.The Tory ideas of their day were repeated in our own.We saw them manifested in the gerrymander and in the corruption prevalent in Government circles.But the victory for which Papineau and Lafontaine strove and whicly they won would be repeated before many montha had gone \"by.In 1841 Lafontaine was deicated in Terrebonne, but through the generosity of the Liberals of Ontario a seat was found for him there.That event was the foundation of the alliance which had since existed between the French-Canadian Liberals of Quebec and the English-speak- iy Liberals of Ontario, and which was destined to produce beneficlent results for the Dominion.(Applause.) The question whick was uppermost in - for bread or work?| governinents we find that its object is not men\u2019s minds to-day was whether there was to be a session or a general election.The trade of the ccuntry was suffering from this indecision cf the Government.The subject had been discussed at length by the Cabinet on Saturday last.Mr.Angers was there, and so were Sir Adolphe Caron, Mr.Ouimet, Sir Mackenzie Bowell, Mr.Haggart, Sir Charles Tuprer.The mountain had labored and had brought forth a mouse.(Laughter.) No decision was arrived at as to whether we should have a session first or a general election.Why?Because the Government dared not face either the House or the people.Why were they frichtened to face the House?They had a docile and compact majority, who had never hesitated to whitewash the blackest parliamentary culprit\u2014a Caron when he Mad been proved guilty of Inving taken $:5,000 from railroad subsidies with which to corrupt tho electorate.(**Shame.?\u201d\u201d) When Sir Adélphe was whitewashed in the House not one of the Conservative members cried out \u2018\u201cshame.\u2019\u2019 HON.MR.JOLY.Dr LOTBINIERE, The majority had also whitewashed Mr, Turcotte for having sold provisions to the Government, contrary to the letter of the law.Liberals had a right to ask the Government wha?its intention was, In any case, however, Liberals were quite ready for the fray.(Applause.) They had to-day the same struggle before them as Papineau and Lafontaine had.The circumstances only had changed.THE QUESTION OF PROTECTION.It was protection to-day which was oppressing the people, In the presence of that oppression .« appealed to all honest, upright and intelligent men to cast aside petty jealousies and minor puints of difference, so as to present a united front.Let them have the courage of thelr convictions, and answer this question: had protection fulfilled tle promises made for ft?Did they not see that its result was a small number of millionaires on one hand and a vast sum of poverty on the other.And yet they saw mirnisters.going roung telling the people that protection had made the coune try rich in the sense in which Louis XIV had termed the country\u2014L'etat, c\u2019est moi.(Cheers.y It had enriched monopolies, but it had empoverished the masses of the people, What was the country?Was it not the 5,000,000 who inhabited it?Who were those whom it had enrichol?Was it any of those whom he was addressing?(Cries of No,\u201d no.) Was it the workinymen who were going about in Montreal in hundreds to-day asking Was ft the storekeepers, the farmers, or the general run of manufacturers?No.It was only the few moncpolies that it had cnriched, With such fruits before their eyes, he asked them how could they as intelligent men vote for a continuance of protection?What is the Government song?It says that these reports of depression are not true.Itacts like the ostrich, which when pursed by danger buriee its head in the sand and rests in the confidence that ali peril is over because it does not hear nor see anything.The Ministers do worse than \u2018bury their head in the sand; they bury their head in the columns of the Tory press, and thir eyes and ears are so well deceived that they do not see the storm which threateus them.But is that an attitude which Le- comes independent and honest voters?Are the people going to say: \u2018\u2018What matters emigration is depreciating the value of all our property, we remain Conservative.What matters it that hunger and cold sadden manv homes in the land, we remain Conservatives.\u201d Jt would he folly, incomprehensible folly, for any honest man to speak such language.Experience has proved the utter uselessness of the protective system; it has deceived all hopes.and I denounce that system before you.appeal to the good sense and observation of every man.The object of protection gs it is understood by some is no doubt a good object if it could be realized.I'he object of protection is said to he to give work to the people, and there is no doubt that to work isa necessity for mankind, But when we come to look at protection as it | is applied by all protectionist | to give abundauce, but to create scarcity; not to cheapen prices, but to increase them.Its operation was most clearly shown by the French economist, Frederic Bastiat, in a petition to the French Chambers.This great economist imagined a petition on behalf of the manufacturers of lamps and candles, in which these gentlemen represented that they were suffering from a most ruinous competition, that of the sun.The sun was bold enough to supply light free during ten, twelve or fourteen hours a day, and it was clear that the manufacturers of candles suffered from competition, If the Legislative authorities would have passed o law to compel merchants to darken their stores in broad daylight, they would no doubt have been able to employ more men in the manufacture of candles.Do you not recognize, gentlemen, the protectionist argument ; but do you not understand also that it cannot be conducive to generul prosperity to tax all men to give a little more work to a small class.We have free light in day time.and no one disputes that iti an advantage; but only the other member of Congress for Massachusetts, Mr.Walker.in defending protection, declared that it would Le a great mis- fortnne for that State if any woollen \u2018eloth could be brought into the country to clothe all the people free.Do you think.gentlemen, that during cne of our cold winters it would be a great misfortune to have two or three hundred thousand dollars\u2019 worth of cloth distributed free to the people?To work is a necessity, it isa mark of what I consider to he the only true nobility.Pasteur, Hugo, William E.Gladstone, who undertook at the age of eighty to restore to Ireland her long lost autonomy and liberty (applause) were types of noble minds and noble hearts.The taruier, the artisan, who in.a more humble sphere endeavor to be useful to their kind are equally in my mind.But I say that these men have enough to do to overcome obstacles of every kind in making human life easy without being saddled with natural obstacles, such as those which have been put in the way of business in Montreal during the last fifteen years.THE MANUFACTURERS.We are told that we must uot destroy the manufacturers of Montreal.I say that we are not going to destroy the industries of Montreal, I contend ou the contrary that the application of the ideas which we defend will inaugurate a era \u2018of prosperity such as Montreal has not known since the inauguration of the National Policy.Whenever it shall please the Government to consult the electorate, after we have won our victory\u2014for we are going to win the victory (applause), we shall proceed to modify the tariff with the sole view of raising the revenue\u2014 we shall endeavor to reduce taxation to a minimum.The present system raises a maximum of taxation, not only on the consumer, but also on the producer.SOME TAXES.They have a tax on iron, which is a raw material of .every industry.The tax on iron is $4.00 à ton, and at the present price of iron that means a tax of 63 per cent.ad valorem.The tax on coal, which is also a raw material of every industry is 60 cents a ton.Although I have not the latest quotations of coal, I am sure that this tax is equivalent to 40 per cent.There is a tax on coal oil of G cents a gallon, which, considering the price of coal oil in the United States, is equivalent toia tax of 100 p.c.,to which must beadded a tax of 40 p.c.on the barrels contaiuingthcoil.Can the industries, which are thus taxed for the raw materials they use, produce advantageously?You have piano factories in Montreal, the duty on imported pianos is 25 per cent.Can the piano manufacturer support foreign competition when he is taxed to the extent of 40, 60 and 100 per cent on.the raw materials that he uses and only gets a protection of 25 percent on his manufactured products?The same is true of your wagon factories; it is true of the mass of industries.Protection is a fine thing only for a few monopolies.It mars the growth of all our great national industries.Now I have been asked what are you going to do.I have just told you what we are going to do.We are going to have a tariff for revenue, aud we are going to abolish completely all the duties on raw materials.THE MANITOBA SCHOOL QUESTION, Speaking of the Manitoba School question, he said: I am glad to leave for a moment the domain of political ccon- omy and to digcuss the subject which interests particularly the people of Montreal, the Manitoba School question.I have spcker already many times on this question, in the House of Commons, in Toronto, im Winnipeg, in Victoria.J.LTAR.E.Tet me tell you that I would have much more pleasure in discussing this matter at Winnipee or Toronto than at Montreal, because while here I feel the sympathy of public sentiment, there 1 experience the pleasure that one feels in ieht:ng for a good cause.I have rpok- en frequently on the Manitoba Schcols, but have not yet succeeded in satisfying the Censervatives.The more I discuss it, the less satisfied they are.It 1s because I have taken the stand of a statesman and a patriot that, I have not succeeded in pleasirg them, and I ing.This question is nor a new one.It came up in 1893 before Parliament, do not expect to please them this even- | N EVERY LINE OF BUSINESS house in each mand for our every day.177 R.J.There is a difference of opinion as to whose goods are the best.thought alike there would be only one If all particular line.We never felt so sure of our position as SHIRT MAKERS \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014rury as we do at the present time.The de- goods is increasing TOOKE, St, James Street, enable them to The Judge of Probate tuticnal conr:tries there are always two sides, the policy of the \u2018sovernffient and that of the Opposition, I have declared ray position.There are Conservatives here, Is there one among them who can tell us what the policy of the Government is?Can anyone quote the declaration by Mr, Ouimet, or Mr.Angers, or Sir Adolphe Caron?1 have declared that it is only a question of fact, and that stated as the late Bishop Tache stated it, it was an outrape which «ight not tp be tolerated.The Con- servalive press eay it is not going euf- ficiently far.If that be so, with what contempt should w2 not repard the ccurse of the Government, vho have not yet ventured to pronounce a single opinion on the question?If I do not go iar enough, let the Government eo farther.1 defy Mr.Angers to de so.At Vavdreuil, Mr.Angers +szid that he would cut of his right hand if justice «cre not done, and yet I believe he has still his two hands, (Lauahter and ap- reuse.)

Laurier had rendered] this country.If there was ever any man who gained respect for the Province of Quebec, it was the Liberal chieitain.From one end of the Dominion to the other, our Province was respected in his person.But if they were proud of him, they should equally show that they were worthy of him.(Ap- : plause), That would be the greatest reward they could bestow on him.In a few weeks they would be called upon to de cide the future of this country.He (Mr.Joly) recalled to his audience the position Of things in 1878 and the false promises which the Tories had then made.At that time we were passing through a crisis, similar, but less in de- : gree, to that under which we are now suf- | fering.But there was this difference be- i tween the position of the Mackenzie Government and that of the Bowell Cabinet.when the Government, after having made a firat reference of it to the courts, found themselves again obliged to confront it.They sought again to refer it to the Ccurts, and they succeeded.I then declarad in the House that the question was not one of right, but of fact.1 took up the petition addressed tc the Goverrment by ihe Bishop of St.Boniface, the much-regretted Monseigneur Tache, in which he declared that under the pretext of introducine public schools into Manitoba, Protestant schools were in reality established.I asked the Government; whi refer this puestion to \u2018the Courts?1f these are Frotestant schools, never in a fre country should- such an outrage be allowed.That declaration 1 repeated, 1 different times in Ontario.1 repeated it only fifteen days ago In Toronto.But the Ccnservative newspapers ask, why does not Mr.Laurier go further?in consti- day Irebd in an American parer that a with that of the Ministers.have repeated, not once, bat five or six Well, pentlemen, contrast my language Mr.Mackenzie had no need to feel any remorse, while this Government must, if it { has any conscience left, suffer from re- | morse for having during sixteen years deceived the country.In 1878, Mr.Macken- ze stated honestly that laws could not remove the crisis, but that with courage, perseverance and honest work, the people would succeed in overcoming them.The Tory opposition, on the other hand, had thelr quack nostrum of protection which they held out to the people as a cure for all the evils of the body politic.For sixteen years the country has been undergoing their treatment, and what had become of the promised prosperity ?The people were still pursuing it and it still kept eluding them like the will o\u2019 the i wisp or the cup of Tantalus.And yet the Government had the audacity and the assurance to ask the people to, continue their course of treatment for another sixteen years.The Government were condemned not Montreal city will return at the ASK YOURSELF WHAT Training your wife and children have had to manage your estate.Go to and ascertain the duration of the average estate, and then, to know what we Can do to Cover that Contingency.ce THE TRAVELERS INSURANCE CO.FRANK F.PARKENS, Chief Agont, Temple Buildinx, Montreal, P.Q.if not before, you will want coe sess seve LIBYRALISM IN MONTREAL.The meeting at Sohmer Park last night has never, in respect to attendance, beel equalled in Canadian political history, When Mr.Laurier rosc to speak he gazed on an assemblage of twelve thousand men, all of them, with trivial exceptions, his faithful and loyal followers.In his palmiest days, Sir John Maecdon- ald could not have rivalled this demonstration in the city of Montreal, Conservative though it was in his time; and as for Sir Mackenzie Bowell it would be teresting to note what effect the magic of his name would have in filling Sohmner Park at the present time.The gathering last night, so enthusinstic, so great in numbers, so responsive to every appeal, presages Liberal victory ou this Island of Montrsal which for seventeen years has been wholly given over to Tory- ism.The tide has turned; the Lileruls, once so few, have become a host; Lib- cral principles and policies are received by the people with acelamations everywhere there is activity, carnestnezs, confidence in the party while its opponents are rent with dissensions and consumed with fears; and every day makes it more certain tut next election to its old-time faith in Liberatism.\u201crng \u2014 Chamïxe de Commerce, \u2014\u2014 The counting of the votes for the cicetion of members of the Chambre de Commerce feo\u2019.place last evening and resulted as follows: President, H.Lapo te;

to establish on a solid basis our political edifice; and to do everything to develop © the resources of Canada and make her prosperous and happy.He asked the workingmen what Protection had done for them, who had done so much for Protection.Are you richer after 17 ears of efforts and struggles?Are you urther advanced ?Have you ever thought that of every dollar you spend under Protection, you contribute 40 cents to the Government or to manufacturers.The Government has imposed on your family a debt of 8150 per head.A family of 10 persons would owe $500.Misery is felt everywhere, and still you contribute to the Government's favorites enough money to chase away that misery from the country for many years.*If you wish to remedy the evil,\u201d he continued, \u201crise and shake off the yoke.Put the demagogues out of office, especially Mr.Curran, who has never sought anything but his own interests.He does nothing but solicit; ho solicits always and generally.Hence he is called the Solicitor-General.He makes a monthly trip to Ottawa to get his salary; he (does nothing else; he solicits everything for himself.Why ask Mr.Laurier to settle the Manitoba school difficnlty, and yet not give hin an opportunity to go into power to settle.\u201cThere is ny Conservative party in the country us in the days of Cartier.It isa Tory party only.\u201cI aman Irishman, and all my sympathies are with my Canadian compatriots and co-religionists of Manitoba.I ouly ask justice and that shall be done.1t is impossible for an Irishman, who knows that Bowell has reached power by his prejudices, wo follow him The Conservatives themselves ave ashamed of their chiefs Mr.Devlin throughout got a most attentive lesring, and was enthusiastically applauded.MR.TARTE.Mr.Tarte, M.P.followed and was greeted with much checring.He started out (breezily enough.\u201cFirst let me settle an sceeunt with the Gazette,\u201d he said.\u201cIt says that if I go to Laval I shall not be elected.Ibet hat that if I go there I shall be elected.\u201cà shall not be able to speak very long as my voice is failing we.You have heard Mr.Laurier.Mr.Devlin has said to the the Liberals : \u2018There is your chiet?now sav to the Conservatives of the Province of uebee : \u2018There | also is your chief\u2019 A change is coming over people; there was: a time when the head af the Liberals in Ontario attacked the people of Quebec, and discord ensued; but now union is restored, the Baldwin- Latontaine alliance is renewed, and I hope the eminent man before us will head the Ministry with his whole: Province behind him.\u201cIf Chapleau came to us, yon young Conservatives would be willing to follow us; I believe that he would do so if he could, and that lis heart is with us.What do Sir Mackenzie Bowell, Ouimet, and their friends represent?A system of decay and corruption We can now repeat what H.Lafoutaine said in 1848, under somewhat similar circumstances, to the Ministers of the time: \u2018You have sacrificed the country, and you will get the reward you deserve.\u201d So do we say now, \u2018Union, gs I said, is now made.The Libetuls of'Ontario have given one of the best proofs of their desire for it Ly choosing a son of your Province as their ehief.Mr, Devlin, Who spoke before me, told you: \u2018i do not attack Sir Mackenzie Bowell because he is at Ovangeman.\u2019 I here differ from him.I attack him because he is an Orangeman.In doing so I am only imitating Mr.Blake.When the Orange lodges were asking for incorporation in 1884, he said: \u2018No peuce is possible in the country if the rights of all are not equal.Orangemen seek io destroy this peace by attacking Catholiciem.They wish Protestantism to rule in this country; it is what we do not wish.We wish all Citizens to live equal religious rights.\u201d Our programme is still the same.Mr.Devlin has told vou I have many enemies: but my conscience is at peace.1 have done my duty, I have been insulted, but some newspapers have gouc too far.The Herald, of Halifax, hus seid Iwas a boodler.À prosecution for libel will settle that question.\u201cWe are going to carry the coming elections.Some people object to my ways ; they say they are too rough; I say they are the ways I have ituported from tie Conservative party.We shall use these oki methods of the Conservatives and give them the best thrashing they ever had (applause).Seé what progress we have made.Is there a single district in Montreal where Mr.Laurier would not be elcet- ed if he presented himself?A word of advice, however, let us have no divisions; follow your leader, he is there before you.We have had no prime minister since Cartier\u2019s time; we must have one now.He is papular, honest and clever, whilst the Conservative party has only got men of no value.Ouimet and Caron may have been well enough when they were young, they are not good for much now, so say many young Conservatives.\u201cA word about the Catholic clergy; they have for a long time been deceived by the Tories.I said some time ago in the House of Comms: \u2018The bishops have not got the means of fighting the dishouest people of Ottawa.But now they are beginuing to sce how they have been deceived.Mr.Laurier js respected by all the Catholic clergy and loved Ly many amougst them.\u201c \u201cIn finishing,allow me to congratulateyou again on this great manifestation.We shail fight side hy side.If I goto Laval I trust you will all come and help me.\u201d The last speaker of the evening was Rodolphe Lemieux, who spoke eloquently and acceptably as he always does; and the meeting broke up with the customary cheers.NOTES, \u201cI'd like to see that crowd every day\u2019 in the summter at ten cents a head,\u201d said Manager Lavigne.\u201cGosh,\u201d put in Manager Lajoie, \u2018we can\u2019t get attractions like that, I'd give \u2018era $350 & week.\u201d .) The M.8.R.Company cannot be compli® mented on their service.The G.T.R.and C.P.R.did much better._ \u2018Our turn \u2019li come,\u201d said a La Presse Editor.\u201cIn 1935,\u201d replied his chum.There was no need of extra police.The crowd was well able to take care of itself.Three hundred men were perched on the girders of the great pavillon.Many social gatherings were minus the men last night.And the theatres wondered where everyone kad gone to.During the meeting some enthusiastic voters climbed over the girders onto the roof of the refreshment hall.Through they went, and quickly.This caused a run for ft moment at the back of the meeting.\u2018But they soon came back.Several shins were skinned.The accomodation for the reportersasat the Windsor Hall meeting was excellent.About 50 seats were provided directly in front of the platform, roped off from the audience and guarded by police.The Liberal clubs certainly appreciate the importance of having the newspapers looked after well.Mr.Laurier was the lcading-factor in preventing one panic.When there was a crash of gluss and rush to the front he jumped on the table and assured the people that there was no danger.A second disturbance of a somewhat similar character was quieted by the stentorian tones of Charles Devlin, M.P.for Ottawa County, and of George Washington Stephens, ir.It was hot work speaking in the earlier part of the meeting as Mr, Laurier\u2019s wilted collar showed.No such demonstration was ever held in Montreal.\u2018 Ouimet cannot have one like it,\u201d exclaimed an enthusiastic young Liberal.Mr.Laurier spoke from 9.15 to 10.20.When Mr.Laurier had finished his hand was grasped and he was warmly congratulated by Hon.Wilfred Prevost, Hon.Louis Tourville and others.A NOTABLE MANIFESTATION.LORD ABERDEENS CHARACTERIZATION OF LAST NIGHT'S RECEPTION, TENDERED TO THEIR EXCELLEN CIES IN THE HIGH SCHOOL.An Address Presented by Bishop Bond to which the Governor Suitably Replies.Their Excellencies the Governor-General and Lady Aberdeen received the first return for their many kindnesses last evoning, in the shape of a reception in their honor at the High School.Tho function commenced at 9 o'clock, and from the names of those on the platform may be gathered an accurate idea of the meeting\u2019s complexion.Rev.Dr.Barclay acted as Chairman, and Rev.M.S.Oxley as Secretary.Also on the platform were His Lordship Bishop Bond, Sir William Dawson, C.M.G., Rev.Dr.Ryckman, Rabbi De Sola, Canon Ellegood, Geo.Hague, Rev.T.S.McWilliams.Rabbi Veld,

National An- em.\u2018 An address was presonted to His Excellency by Bishop Bond.His Excellency replying sald: \u201cMy .Lord Bishop, Reverend gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen it is with profound feclings of gratitude and appreciation that I endeavor to express the thanks of Lady Aberdeen and myself for this notable, this exceptional manifestation.This is a decd of conveyance of something very\u2019 reul though it cannot be weighe où measured-sofnething of great value although its worth is not to be estimated by gold.There is no doubt that persons who occupy a public or official bosition are not supposed tobe unduly sensitive or alive to expressions où commendation Or criticism, but think we 1may safely say that if à person were not sensiblu, if he were not alive to an expression in any degree resembling such a manife:{ation as this, such an attitude would imply a want of sympathy, a want of sensibility whieh would certainly involve also a distinct want of ab least one of the qualities which are esscnlial to one occur g.ng any positien of trust or influence.But whatever may be the opinion which we may have on that matter as one of theoretical di-quisition, I ask you to accept this simple assurance that 1 offer, namely, that Lady Aberdeen and I are indeed deeply alive to the significance and value of this token.and not only are we alive to it now, but it will be a lasting and much-prized pledge and a stimulus and incentive to future effort.We are grateful for such declarations as this beautifully illuminated address contains, and especially do we value and recognize the siguiti- cance of the notable list of signatures which are appended to this document, In the address, My Lord Bishop, you are good enough to say that you recognize and you kindly express appreciation of the fact that during our residence in this city-\u20141 do notadd_ any adjectives though I might putin a goed many of a laudatory kind before an allusion to the city of Montreal\u2014that \u201cwe endeavored to take our part with those who are striving to promote the best welfare of the community in education, philanthropy and works of benevolence.Suc!) a recognition of this desire to co-operate with You is in itself no small matter but you go further, you go on to «ay tint you even consider that in some degree wo have been cnabled even not only lo co-operate but also to encourage those who are thus concerned in the truest life of the community.But what about the influences upon us\u2014whut about the inspiration, the advantages, the benafit to us, to be allowed Lhus to come into fellowship with thasc who ac representatives of the truest lite of the community.That is semcthing to be indeed prized, wind the benefit of which will uot be easily taken away, I know tha.some of our fricnds have sometimes said to us that we must have found it à little srduous When ve endcavored-as we were pernutsed to do\u2014to take insuch experiences, but nou in the

in which I was interested, Ant as you have inferred.we feel | that we are under a debt of obligation to those who did so munch to make our visit Interesting and enjoyable, I would take this opportunity of recording the great and lasting pleasure which we have derived from our experience here.We shall look back to it always wirh peculiar appreciation, and the very refere 5 in this address awaken afresh the pleasing reminiscences of which [ have spoken, and T assure yon I allude to them in no merc convertinnal or common-place serse.There is one ctiter point to which I wih torcfer, and that is thcappreciation with which T have observed, and 1 am sure Lady Aberdeen al-o, thouse of the dual numbez throuvhotit this address, I can only further say that I cannot imagine anything that one would esteem A greater vrivilege than in any sense to take part in what makes for harivony, toleration and unit>.Wo need not look for uniformity of doctrins, but we may and do hail annuity of spirit.We desire to oifer our best wishes in the trust sense fur the eminently sacred work v his here represented.I ap- reclate and reciprocate the invocation con.inined in the concluding words of

the big military steeplechase at Te a BEE A 71 NEA ES A VIEW OF z= 5 7, YEN Bn THE HALL.she herself intends to witness them, The proceedings which the anti- Gambling League have instituted agaist the Jockey Club at Newmarket, for keeping an alleged gambling ring, have been in progress during the last week, and have been generally condemned by al] persons interested in sporting.jchn Hawke, who is at the head of the League, is the English representative of Messrs.E.F.Jaffrey and Company, of New York.Among the members of the Jockey Club are the Prince of Wales, the Duke of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, the Duke of Connaught, the Duke of York, and Frince Christian of Schieswig-Holstein, The King of Belgium and the Grand Tuke Viadimir of Russia are honorary members, SNOW SHOEING.Holly's I1th Annual \u201cAt Home.\u201d The Holly's 11th annual \u201cat home\u201d will take place this evening at the Athletic Club House.Blasi\u2019s orchestra will give the music.Sleighs will leave the Club House, St.Catherine Street, second door west of Peel, at 8.15.The first sleigh will leave at 8.00, calling at the corner of Fort and St.Catherine at 8.15, aud corner Pine Avenue and St.Catherine at 8.80.A large number of tickets have alrerdy been sold ; there are still a few left, and can be had from the Secretary or any of the Committee.THE WHEEL.Annual Meeting of the L.A.W.New York, Feb.18.\u2014The annual convention of the League of American Wheel.man began this morning at the Grand Union Hotel in this city, with an attendance of bicycle enthusiasts from all the States from Maine to-California, It is pro- buble that the question of whether or not the color line will be drawn in the League will come up during the present session, and there is also likely to be some fight as to whether the next annual meet of the League will be held at Boston or at Asbury Park.A mighty effort will be made to have the law admitting colored wheeimen to the League repealed.and another mighty effort will be made to allow it to stand just as it is President Charles H.Luscombe presented his annual report in which he advised the holding of two conventions yearly, one in the full and the other in the carly gspring, one in the east and one in the west, ag a convenience to the \u2018league members Living at the extremes of the country, The report of the secretary shows that the membership of the 4.A.W.has decreased from 251 local leagues to 180.There are 690 women members of the League, the greater number being in Massachusetts, Tne report of the Racing Board showed that 232 men had been suspended during the past year for various offences, and that 1,808 race meets were sanctioned during the same length of time.© He suggested that ail record-breaking events be held in open meeting between the months of May and September, and that no other records be recognized.TURF AND TRACK.The Jarques Cart'er Ice Races.Sandowne Park, fixed for yesterday, and the Manchester February meeting, had to be entirely abandoned, One distressing feature of the situation is that fully two thirds of the houses in London are en-; tirely without their usual water supply, in consequence of the freezing of the water.An extraordinary scene was witnessed on Wednesdanlast in front of the Mansion House the official residence of Lord Mayor, in connection with the in- | tensely cold weather.A large number of persons gathered there in consequence of the circulation of a false report that the Lord Mayor had issued a proclamation warning the citizens of London of the near approach of an enormous blizzard | which would impede all traflic and cause a cessation of business, It was also reported that the proclamation urged the | people to provide themselves with a full Stock of provisions for three days in or-| der to be prepared for any emergency ! and also warned all citizens to be within.the doors oi their residences before midnight on Thursday, in order to escape } ; being overtaken by the elements.Skaters, | however, in England have never had such an excellent opportunity for indulging in sport on the ice, and the lakes and ponds, all of which are frozen over, are crowded day and nizht.The interest centered in the daily skating parties, which have been held on the lake in Bickinrham Palace Gardens and at which the Prince oi Wales and his uni:arried davghters, the Prin css Victoria and Maud; the Duke and Duche ess of York; Princess Henry of Plesse, who is a beautiful skater, Lord Marcus \u2018Beresford, Sir Francis Edmund George Astley-Corbett, son of the Prince of Wales\u2019 friend, the late Sir John Dugald Astley, the noted patron of sports, and numbers of other prominent persons were in daily \u2018 \u2018attendance, | Hedikey matches on the ice, beginning at threc ¢'clock in the afternoon and \"lasting untii five o'clock, when teca and | i other hot drinks were served, have been | the features of these parties.The most notable match was played on Thursday afternoon, between teams captained hy | tic Princz of Wales and Mr.Francis Miidmay, M.P,, the side captained by the Prince winning by a score of eight to five.On this occasion the Princess of Wales was also preseat, and took great interest in the game.Roth she and her deughter-in-law, the Duchess of y York, were warm champions oi the [side headed by the Prince, and in which the Duke of York was a player, and appeared to be immensely delighted at its success.The Royal ladles and their party appeared to take no heed whatever to the intensely cold weather which prevailed, the mercury being four degrees below zero.The Queen, who is coming to London oii Monday from the Isle of Wight, has irsued orders that certain members of her Court shall be 1nvited to witness the sports on thes Buckingham Palace the ! ' tractive card published, the manngement ; second day, gardens luke, and has announced that | Entries are Ioming In: liberally for the three days race melting which comniences to-morrow, ani the wrek should be an interesting one for horsemen, The horses of Fx.H.Desmasest and] E.Lake arrived from Hamilton yesterday, and others are expected to-day.In addition to the at- have arranged a five mile race for, the which is likely to have a large number of starters.There will also be a couple of special races which are sure to be interesting, The list of entries will be published to-morrow.FOOTBALL.The Canadian Feotdall Association.The meeting of the Canawan Football Mssnociation, which was to have taken placa last night in the Queen's Hotel, wus adjourned to March ilth, Ar iu- | foriaal meciing took place, however, | and the represeniatives present had a very hot open discussion about making sundry amendn:ents to the by-laws.\u201che Mets Astaire, \u2018The Metropolitons will hinli a ceneral meeting in Glerora Hall, No.1886 Notre Fame Street, on March Ind.The many | friends of the Club will be pleased to: ncar that they have secured the Exhibi- | tion Grounds for the coming season, \u201chey are going to play three teams, and have ercat expectations.This Club vas | formed only at the beginning of last! season, and since then Las advanced with rapid strides.The Corinthians, who did very well last rcason, have amalgamated with the Metropolitans, and thé cembiration seems to be very beneficial to both clubs.ATHLETICS.That International Aikletic Cantest.| London, Few, 18.\u2014Mr.H.K.Holman, the honorary secretary of the London Athletic Club, has sent a response to the letter written to him on the 15th of jan, by Mr.John C.Gulick, of the New York Athletic Club, in rezard to the contemplated contest in New York betwdsn representatives of New York and London clubs, Mr.Holman\u2019s letter, which is dated Feb, Oth, agrees upon Sept.21st,.the date fixed by tho New York Athletic, Club, for the contest.But, he sugzest- ed, that if it should bz found necessary, : an arrangement te nude by which the date could be changed to either a week\u2019 earlier or a week later.He agrees that a 220 yard flat race be added to the programme, and proposes to leave the long race distance three miles.Mr.Holman\u2019s letter says that the team that will be sent to America wil probally be compos-, et of C.A, Bradley, C.B.Fry, G.Shaw, | A.R.Downer, W.J.M, Barry, E.C.Bredin, W, E.Lutyens, F.S- Horan, A,! R.Willams and A.Ovenden.Mr.Hol- | man says further: \u201cI wish to point out, in order to fore-; stall argument on the subject, that Bradley, although a duly elected member of the London Athletic Club, has but recently joined it, and has done go, 1 believe, expressly for the purpose of taking part in this competition.Fry was nominated for election about a month ago, and he and Downer were elected members at a committee meeting held last Wednesday evening.The whole team will thus be composed of fully qualified paying members of the club, but, ! think that itl is only right that you should be in possession of all the facts.\u201d The letter then proceeds to say that the honorary-secretary will accompany the team.He will be invested with full power to alter or annul present arrangements or to enter into new ones.The letter also says: \u2018\u2019We hear rumors that a hammer might be metamorphosed into a leaden weight to be slumg by a steel wire from a cross-bar handle.We hope that no such radical! change is contemplated, and must put in a plea for an irom head with a wooden haft which has been used for furnishing records for past years,\" In regard to the question of expenses for the contest, Mr.Holman accepts the offer of the New York Athletic Club, to payj the expenses ofbn team and substitutes not tb exceed fifteen im number from London to New York and return, He explains in regard to the suggestion of Mr.Gulick that a subscription be taken up in England for defraying the expenses of the London Club, that he is unable to formulate a plan to relieve the New York Athletic Club in this respect, as the idea of a public subscription does not find favor here.It is probable also that some members of the London Club will decline to go to New York on the latter terms.Mr.Holman aiso says that in the event of a return visit from the team of the New York Athletic Club, which he hopes to arrange, the assistance of others outside of the club, could be more properly and successfully enlisted if no subscription was taken ap now.\u2014 THE RING.Ins, Costello Challenged.The following letter from David Finn to Jas.Costello as been received by the Sporting

to the sea, and the sand hills ran along the head of it like the ramparts of a town.No eye of ours could spy what was passing behind there in the boats; no hurry of ours could mend the speed of the boat\u2019s coming.Time stood still with us through that uncanny pe- i waiting.ro en is = thing I would like fo ken,\u201d says Alan.\u201cI would like fine to ken these gentry\u2019s orders.We're worth four hunner pound, the pair of us.How if they took the guns to us, Davie?They would get a bouny shot from the top of sandy bank.\u201d ey impossible,\u201d said I.\u201cThe int is that they can have no guns.This thing has been gone about too secret.Pistols they may have.but never \"I believe ye'll be in the right,\u201d says Alan.\u201cFor all of which! am wearying a good deal for yon boat.\u201d | \u2018And he snapped his fingers and whistled to it like a dog.It was now perhaps a third of the way in, and we ourselves aiready hard on the margin of the sea so that the soft sand rose over my shoes.There was no more to do whatever but to wait, to look as much as we were able at the creeping nearer of the boat, and as little as we could manage at the long, impenetrable front of the sand hills, over which the gulls twinkled and behind which our enemies were doubtless marshaling.«This is a fine, bright, caller place to get shot in,\u201d says Alan suddenly, \u2018\u2018and, man, I wish that I had your courage!\u201d \u201cAlan!\u201d I cried, *\u2018what kind of talk is this of it?You're just made of courage.It's the character of the man, as I could prove myself if there was nobody else.\u201d \u201cAnd you would be the more mistaken,\u201d said he.\u201cWhat makes the differ with me is just my great penetration and knowledge of affairs.But for auld, cauld, dour, deidly courage, I am not fit to hold a candle to yourself.Look at us two here upon the sands.Here am], fair hotching to be off.Here's you (for all that I ken) in two minds of it whether you'll no stop.Do you think that I could do that or would?No me?Firstly, because I have nae got the courage and would nae daur, and secondly because I am a man of so much penetration and would see yo damned first.\u201d \u201cIt's there ye're coming, is it?\u201d I cried.\u201cAn, man Alan, you can wile your old wives, but you never can wile me.But this much I'll own.If Icould geton board with you and your captainman \u2018would set me ashore in Fife, it would be the more making of my business.I could walk round from there to Stirling with nobody to meddie me.\u201d \u201cAnd that's just precisely what my captain] no do,\u201d returned Alan.\u201cI ken; he's a queer fish, But I'll tell ye what hell do: he] carry ye to France, and that\u2019s near hand Leyden, where (by your own account of it) your business lies.\u201d Remembrance of my temptation in the wood made me strong as iron.\u201cI have a tryst to keep, Alan,\u201d said L \u201cTam trysted with your cousin Charlie.I have passed my word.\u201d
