AFGHAN PRETENDER.Russian Pacific Utterances.| ST.PETERSBURG, September 6.\u2014The following Semi-official statement is made public :\u2014 The flight of Ayoub Khan does not alter the relations existing between Russia and the Al- ghans.The Russian Govermnent had nothing to do With Ayoub's flight, and does not feel called upon to concern herself with internal politles.It is not likely that Ayoub's escape will cause fresh difficulties between England and Russia, both of those Governments when settling the Russo-Af- ghan frontiers having adopted a solid ethen- ogruphic basis, partly guided by Turcoman an Afghan traditions.The arrangement is # durable one and was established in such a manner that there remains no trace of dis satisfaction nor pretext for ulterior claims on cither side.No casual incident like the flight of Ayoub can revive the difference pren the two powers desired to settle once IRISH AFFAIRS.COLD STEEL HAS NO TERRORS, DUBLIN, Sept.&\u2014Mr.Lane, M.P.,

THEATRE GOEKS.How the Accident Occurred \u2014 Meart- rending.Scenes.; LONDON, Sept 6.\u2014The victims by the burning of the Theatre Royal at Exeter last night were mostly working people.As soon as the flames were extinguished a large force of men began searching for bodies.The stairway leading to the gallery was literally packed With bodies, while at the head of the stairs ihere were scores of others piled one on top of the other.The unfortunate victims had rushed to the door when the alarm was given but found the stairway blocked, all means of escape cut off.In a short time the Hames had reached them and they suffered a horrible death.There were \u2018 PITIFUL SCENES in the vicinity of the burned theatre this morning as friends and relatives of supposed victims awaited the recovery of the dies.In nearly every case the clothing had been torn off the victims.From many of the bodies limbs were missing, and the remains showed evidence that they hind been wrenched off.Several whole families, numbering from two to five persons, lost their lives.The construction of the gallery staircase accounts lor tho great loss of life among 1e gallery people.Half wa down the flight there was & sharp angle The first persons who left the gallery got past this safely, but several of those who followed were thrown down and jammed into the angle and were unable to extricate themselves, owing to the pressure from behind.The staircase at this point was effectually blocked, and there was 10 other means of escape.A scene shifter says the fire originated anlong some gauze, which in some way became ignited.The flames spread to the scenery, of which the stage was unusually full, owing to the preparation in progress tor the production of a pan tomime, THE AUDIENCE NUMBERED 80) PERSONS.Over 100 bodies have been taken from the ruins.The charred remains of twenty persons were discovered in one heap.A mother, ïather and child were found clasped in one embrace all had been burned to death.NEW York, September 6.\u2014The erald\u2019s cable regarding the Exeter fire says Her the sheriff\u2019 states that he has counted 130 dead bodies.The scene in the streets and where the bodies are lying is pitiful.Women are looking for missing hus ands, husbands for Wives and daughters, and mothers for their INQUEST ON THE VICTIMS.The inquest over the victims was began today.Crowds of mourning relatives were present.The coroner intimated that it was desirable for sanitary reasons that a general order for burial be immediately issued.It was impossible to identify many of the bodies.The jury simply viewed the remains, and a public funeral will be held to-morrow: A relief fund has been opened.Captain Shaw, who is visiting Exeter, says that the fire spread with such rapidity, owing to the abundance of inflammatory material, tuat no help from the outside would have done any good.The fire brigades spared no effort, but it would be better if they were placed under one control.The Queen has sent a message of sympathy to the sufferers.\u2014_\u2014\u2014 Plenty More in the States.BERLIN, Sept.6.\u2014Hans Jaboksen, an American citizen, has been arrested, in the

Sept.6.\u2014The Anarchists were visibly nervous this morning.The anxiety and suspense over the near approach of the Supreme Court decision is more than flesh and blood can endure without giving indications of the internal struggle of hope and It was plainly apparent this morning in the deepened lines of the Anarchist faces, their restless movements, their unsteady gaze and sudden ejaculations.The rotund features and steady movements of Fielden alone betrayed nothing.He believes in predestination and uses his philosophy.When first let out of their cells the condemned put their heals together engaged in animated discussion in German.They saw reporters watching them from the cage and all except Spies, who was talking with Miss Van Z:andt, repaired to the other side of the cell house.Over Two Million in Gold.New York, Septembor 6.\u2014The steamship Werra brought $731,000 gold and the Norman- die $1,464,000.Another Railway Strike.WANKSHEE, Wis.Sept.6.\u2014The strike of

CRY OF THE COMBINES, The ery that the \u201cCombines\u201d and their organs are raising, viz., that Unrestricted Reciprocity with the United States means annexation and is therefore a \u201cdisloyal *\u2019 idea is not an honest objection, but nevertheless it should be met.It is hot honest because the people who use it are, as a rule, not concerned with any thoughts about the interests of Great Britain; to whom the word \u201cloyalty \u201d refers; but are thinking only of their own pecuniary interest, and of that or their employers.No one doubts, for example, thal if the United States could offer such terms of reciprocity as would satisty the combines that their profits were to be largely increased, even though the rarmers and other consumers were left out in the cold, and trade with Great Britain was to cease, these powcer- ful people, in whose interest the Cuiilf is framed, would at once turn the screw round in the opposite direction, and, compelling sir John to shift about, would bring with him the whole of the Conservative press\u2014the Toronto World perhaps excepted\u2014ihat is now howling against rade with the United States.The same men, and their friends who signed, or approved ot their triends signing, an annexation memorandum when the course of their own Parliament di:- pleased them, would sign another to-morrow, if their ledger keepers insisted upon its advantage.The loyalty of a Canadian belongs first to Canada, and the lip loyalty to Eug- land of a business combine, or its organ is not a thing deserving of serious attention, But the cry of the combines should be met, and yesterday Mr.Wiman in lis speech at Darlington, which we elsewhere publish, showed Low empty a cry it is.Mr.Wiman pointed oul that though Comercial Union, as he siyles it, bore some relation to political union, it was only as an antagonistic force.The annexationists are so, in most Cases, [rom a desire to obtain free trade with the United States.Ir that were obtained by Unrestricted Reciprocity then their reason for annexation would be removed.Granted this freedom of trade between the two countries, and there would then be no object in desiring annexation.The Americans are nol inclined to change all their political arrangements by the introduction of seven Canadian provinces, with all their disturbing elcinents, and Canada preferring her own form ot Governinent would have no object to find in annexation.\u2018The movement is a commercial not a political one, though with some people the feeling is; freedom uf trade without annexation ir we can, but freedom of trade in some way.Free trade is the only advantage Canada could obtain by amalgamation with the United States, for any peculiarities in their system of Government can be adopted in Canada without any changeof allegiance.The most loyal to the British connection, therefore, are those who desire toremove the worm of discontent that is eating into the heart of Canadian loyalty.The men who are sapping the foundations of Canada\u2019s nationality are the combines chat, in pure greed of money or power, are creating a sullen discontent that by-and-by will take the first means at hand to obtain relief.We say power as well sas money, for things have come to such a pass in the Government of the Dominion that the present administration by surreadering itself entirely to Sir John's methods, has become a partner with Lhe business \u2018 combines,\u201d and is practically in their power.Canada is not now governed by statesmen acting in the country\u2019s interest, but by politicians held tightly in the control of business corporations.Tt is more lucrative to the politicians, some of whom have made or are making fortunes out of the position, but it is the money of the people that is absorbed by this unholy alliance and it is the fact that the protits or this political commercial combination are threatened, by the effort to free the people or Canada from its grip by extended business relations with the United States, that so much alarms those organs, who are employed to defend atall hazards and at all times, the octopus that is strangling the Dominion.\u2014\u2014\u2014 THE PROPOSED COMMISSION.Although from present appearancesit seems doubtful whether the recently appointed Fisheries Commission will overcome the ob- Jection of the United States Senate to co-oper- ate in the matter with President Cleveland and Sceretary Bayard, they may come to see their duty in another light, and aid in carrying on the negotiation to a successful termination.Probably the President believes that such will be the case, or he would hardly have encouraged the British Government in their movement, And looking to this POssibility or probability, some knowledge of what transpires should be made known to the people of Canada before the matter comes up in its finished shape for acceptance or refusal by the Canadian Parliament.The responsibility of refusing to accept the agreement made on our behalf by the commission would be a very grave one.It is not difficult to imagine the arguments that Sir John and his colleagues would make use of to compel the House of Commons to approve the document he had \u2018signed.Indeed the country has already had some experience of this.We should be told that we could not fly in the face of the British Government, that they were our only source of strength, and that imperial necessities demanded our mak.ng some little sacrifice\u2014it would sure to be called à little sacrifice\u2014and many other similar things.To the Conservative party it would be pointed out that if the treaty were not accepted Sir John wouid resign, and that there was an end of all the good things, &c.Would they allow the Grits to come in?Everyone knows the risks that the average Tory member will take rather than lose his friendly touch with the Treasury, and as for the country\u2019s interest, thut does not concern him much.Sothe treaty would be ratified, and possibly without the country having had time to know a word of what was doing.The most valuable of Canada\u2019s interests would have been thrown away.This is a matter so important that it should not be rushed through Parliament as an ordinary measure bonusing the Beatys or the McCarthys would be passed.The people should have an opportunity of expressing Lheir opinion upon it before it passes irrevocably from their control.We think, too, that some ex- Planation should be given by the Prime Minister at the earliest opportunity as to the scope of this.treaty.Rumour says that the Commissioners are to deal with the Behring Sea matter.pears to be quite a distine Atlantic fisheries, and requires nothing but an order from the American Government as promised by Mr.Bayard, and computation and payment of the damages already suffered by Canadian owners and seamen.\u2014\u2014 That, however, apt matter from the A PROMISE AND ITS FULFILMENT.As soon as the iron combine can get started all the iron goods used in Canada will go up in price.It already costs a dollar and a half more to tire a waggon, fifty cents more for a keg of nails, &c., &c.But we were told by the Finance Minister that the new tariff was directed against the United States iron men, not against the British trade ; in fact, that it Was much in the interest of the latter.Well, here is the result.The following table shows tho British exports to Uanada for 1886 and since the tarifl change was made \u2014 7 Mos.\u201986.7 Mos.\"87.; Tons.Pons.Iron

AND DAILY COMMERCIAL GAZETTE, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1887.\"MR.WIMAN AT DARLINGTON.Commercial Union the Cure for Annexationists.In the course of his speech at Darlington, Mr.Wiman said that the chief obstacle encountered in Canada to a favorable consideration of the scheme of commercial union with the United States, appeared to be the fear that it meant annexation to that country.There were thousands of intelligent people who, without investigation or thought upon the subject, had reached at least this conclusion, that closer commercial connection with the Americans across the border meant a loss of independence on this side of the line.It was submitted that in a question of such great importance it was well to more fully consider the whole subject, than Lo give up hurriedly to conelu- sions that were just as likely to be wrong as right, conclusions that were artfully urged by ! .those interests secured by the continuance ot existing conditions, and whose loyalty meant those interests.So far as the speaker believed he considered that political union was nade more impossible under commercial union than without it.There are two Kinds of union that might be possible between Canada and the United Stales.These were poli- tieal union and commercial union.Political union was that which the annexationists desired, and meant a complete entrance into overnmentil, finaucial and interstate re- fation which the union of the States now exhibited.Comunercial union, on the other hand, implied not one of these things.Ou course political union included commercial union, bul commercial union by no mean: included or even pointed lo political union ; indeed if it were possible to eliminate commercial union from political union, hardly one being in all the wide world, except he were a crank, could be found insane enough to advocate annexation for Canada.In this sense the speaker claimed that commercial union was the opposite of political union, and that he who most strenuously advocated a close commercial relation with the United States was the strongest advocaic against a political relation; for there was not single argument on behalf of annexation that was for one moment worth considering, vhich commercial union did not er- iy and forever take out 0 the mouth of those who sought political uniou.It was greatly to the glory of Canadian institutions that there was un unmeasurable content among her people at the form of Government under which they lived.It was a remarkable condition which aimed bitter party struggles, and the wides, differences as Lo policy.There was in the 1ace of it all à universal conclusion that Canada has the freesl, best regulated, and in the main the least objectionable political system in the world.It is a glory for us Canadians, that with perfect civil and religious ircedomn, with a free press, with a pure judiciary, wiih equal justice on all hands, an enlarged suft- rage and a perfect protection of life, liberty and the pursuit, of happiness, we seem Lo be reaping Lhie fruit of the rullness of time in ow governmental institutions, And from one end Of this vast country to the other, among high and low, among rich and poor, there cannot be found one who desires a change, or can urge a reasonabie objection to the existing conditions.It is sald that * comparison is at the bottom of all philosophy.\u201d Comparison of the Canadian political system wiih that or our neighbors across the border is certainly in favor ol the Dominion.A great experiment 3s in the United States being worked out, and the result is by no means vet fully determined aimed, and with some show of justice, that the forms of government prevailing there are the wisest, the most elastic, and the most beneticent that ever came from the hands of man.It remains to be seen how in all conditions these forms of government wili apply ; so long as the sources of power are pure.there is certainiy the hope that good Government will exist.But the charges on the electorate, the steady growth of the purely political element, the enormous introduction of the foreign vote with socialistic tendencies, and above all corrupting influence of the saloon power,obseure lor the moment the prospect otpurity in the sources fromwhich spring political action.All this Canada can atlord to observe, and at a saie distance, work out her own destiny.Not one thing that the political system of the United States possesses does Canada need, which he has not, no possible advantage could come to her from a union with the United States except a commercial advantage, not one argument can be urged why she should forsake her high and independent position on this continent and join the goodly array of commonwealths that prosper on her border, except that the elements which make them prosper are denied to her.These elements are the Ireest iniercourse, the freest interchange of products, apd the ebb and flow ol an enormous commerce between them and through them.This is What Comiereial Union means.It is Commercial Union between the States that makes them prosper and grow and get rich.It is Commercial Union that begets the largest development ot national resources, that makes a market ror manuracturers, that creates the best demand for farmers products at home and without taxation, it is Commerciai Union in the United States that attracts the emigrant from all parts of the world, that brings into it imil- lions and millions ol capital, that makes it to-day the greatest money-making, money- spending aggregation of humanity in all the world.And itis just this Commercial Union between this vast aggregation and Canada that Canada needs to litt her out of the rut and groove of a narrowed life and restricted action that binds her down and isolates her.It is just this commercial union that is needed Lo develope the marvellous natural resources which our country possesses, and which are now laying largely silent and dormant and dead, It is this magic bond of freedom of commercial intercourse which prevails on ile other side of the border which necds but toextend its influence in this direction to send and put lite into every avenue of industry, to add twenty per cent.to the value of every acre of farm land, and crown with success every honest effort to get out of the tields, ihe fisheries, the factory, and the mines all that they can produce.and the greatest of markets absorb.No political union is*necessary to do this.England has for years had a commercial union\u201d with all the world, she gives and she takes of the best of mankind, and she has prospered beyond all other nations, yet she remained politically independent.Canada can pursue, so far as the United States is concerned, the same policy.Her political independence can be faithfuity and rigorously niaintiained, no matter if she trades with the most attractive nation in the world, or the most repulsive.Prosperity is no barrier to contentment with one\u2019s politics! condition, Lack of prosperity on the other hand is often the cause (or a desire for political changes.A scries of bad crops in Canada, a continuance of low prices, increased taxation, and some errors in Government would enormously increase the small encampments of annexationists that in aiinost all communi- lies had began to be created before Commercial Union came to disperse them.But wilh the hope of an enlarged field for commercial operation and greater development, political contentmment now so general would in nu sense be disturbed; on the contrary, success and increase of prospects would but settle and make sure the foundation of a great nationality, that in time on this continent would result from a love of British connection, British loyalty and love for the traditions, the prowess and the justice that is implied and included in the flag that * for a thousand years has braved the battle and the breeze.\u201d \u2014_\u2014\u2014 [WRITTEN FOR THE HERALD.} A VISIT TO THE FIELD OF WATERLOO.On a bright morning in May last, a large party of Englishmen boarded the train at Brussels, en route for Braine-la-Leude, from which point the famous battlefield, half a mile distant, is reached by stage coach.It strikes the visitor as peculiar, that the village of Waterloo, which is over three miles in the rear, should have given its name to the mighty battle, while the villages of Planche- noit, Mont St.Jean, Braine-la-Leude, and Ransbeck are situated in the immediate vicinity of the field itself.A motley lot indeed comprised this party, but all were highly characteristic of the Englishman abroad.Your correspondent, theugh hailing from Canada, was, nevertheless, heartil y welcomed by the party, as a fellow-countryman.Several of those present were sailors, who had taken the run up from Antwerp, where their vessels were then lying, to view the spot where \u201cBritish valour prevailed.\u201d Others were gentlemen ot the turt, who were interested in some races then taking place at Brussels.Two Lancashire men present, had a collection of English bulldogs on exhibition there, and one of their exhibits, à lively specimen, by the by, accompanied them, and fought the battle over, to the (otal discomtiture of several Belgian curs, which had ventured too near, Sexéral London merchants were among the number, one of whom on hearing I was from Montreal, spoke highly of several of our well-known Montreal firms With whom he had dealings.The bonaside English tourist was also represented, bound to see where the\u201c little square taok place, you know.\u201d On the coach, I asked the guide, whom we had hired tor the Occasion, if many Frenchmen visited the ticid.\u201c No,\u201d he replied, \u201cFrenchmen he all go to Austerlitz and Jena!\u201d Choosing this guide from the number who surrounded us on arrival at the station, contributed in no smail degree to thé amusement of the trip.The English spoken by these guides, who all spoke a Flemish patois, was something simply excruciating, giving rise to a remark by one ot the party, who on being approached by a little bowlegged Belgian in à blue blouse, who made his knowledge oi English his strongest point, asked if he (the guide) was then speaking English or hog Latin, to the utter disgust of the w-legged guide.We were, however, fortunate il Recuring one of (the most intelligent among then, v no pparce no pains or gesiiculations to tho © ighly explain the different events of the flgnt.He would get very much excited over the recital, and with outstretched head and extended arms, his blue blouse bellying out behind with the wind like a halt inflated baloon, would describe the progress of a charge of French horse on a British square with great effect.His tather Was an eye witness of the battle, and afterwards acted as a guide for a number ot years, and from him he learant many interesting incidents.We were shown the exact spot, about fifty yards to the left of La Belle Alliance, where the Marquis of Anglesey lost a leg.by a ball from the last cannon fired by the French on that memorable day.The Marquis visited the field on several occasions atterwards, and on his last visit our guide assisted in wheeling him over the ground and told us how the gallant nobleman related to a party of friends the incident of his wound.\u2014 \u2014\u2014 \u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 He was standing on the gronnd with one leg raised against his horse in the act of tightening his saddle girrh, when hit in the leg upon which he was standing by an eighteen pound shot.The guide next brought us to the grounds about Hougomont.The chateau, which reminds one of the Chateau de Ramesay on Notre Dame street, before its recent alterations, still stands with its bullet-riddied walls, an existing evidence of the naughty contest.The brick wall surrounding the garden is still extant, showing the holes knocked out by the British artillerymen for their canon along the front and left side.The relie hunter has, however, swepteverything that was not ofsolid brick and mortar.This fraternity is the curse of everything, including the guide who is held responsible for the good behuviour of those under his charge.yhile in the chapel ot Hougomont, which contains a small altar upon which rests à figure of the virgin carved in wood, I noticed the the nose of the figure was missing, and see n.other indications or the strife in the chaps 1, 1 casually remarked that likely a cannon ball knocked it off, whereupon the guide became very much excited.I had evidently struck a tender spot.* No, by gar,\u201d he replied, \u2018ze virgin she sacred, escape ze battle, but some times ago I shows around party Americans.I brings him to the chaple, while my back turn, by gar, one American he slice oft\u2019 ze virgins nose tt\u201d And with clenched fists und bulged-out eyes, he glared around as if endeavoring to recognize among those present that fiendish American and convineing the party that any further mutilation of the sacred figure could only be accomplished by incurring considerable personal risk.Should these lines ever come to the notice of that vandalic American I would implore him to repent of his sacreligious act, and return that virgin\u2019s nose.At Lhe other end of the chapel above the door,rests a large crucifix, and the visitor is shown with pious pride, how, when the chapel was set on fire by French shells, the lanes were miraculously extinguished as they rose to the Saviour'steet.The traces of the fire are still plainly visible on the floor, ahd along the wall to the base of the crucifix.Victor Hugo makes mention of this miracle inone or his works, We now visited the orchard, an inclosure some two hundred feet square adjoining the walled garden, where the guide informed us, his father had assisted in burying two thousand seven hundred Frenchmen who had iallen there.From there we visit-d the museum, which is built in the centre of Lhe British position, a little in rear ot the distiguring mound raised by the Belgium Government at a cost of over a million frances.On the suminil of the mound stands the Belgian lion, racing France; he is an imposing animal, but unfortunately the seulpior placed its tail between its legs, which, when we recolleet the behaviour ot the Belgian troops that day, apppears rather suggestive.The museum teems with relics of the battle, inciuding unitorms, English, French and Prussian, many marked with buliet holes, arms innumerable, helmets, armour, some pierced by grape shot; musical instruments, sheet music, bibles, letters and coins, all picked oft the field, also bones, skutis and complete skeletons, with marks of bullet and sword on them, which were dug up from time to time.An Englishlady explains the different objects on view.The museum is free to visitors, which fact constitutes the greatest curiosity on the field.From the arrival of the visitor to his departure, it is bat one continual disbursement.At every turn there is something to pay, one is also bes1 ged by yellow haired, blue eyed girls of ten to fificen years of age, besceching in rather good English, for * Mister lEnzlissman ; to buy a bunch of flowers or photographs.The cane fiend is also to be found here, but the last relic vendor died some ycars ago.But thanks to a kind government, which have issued a small coin, the visit is notsuch a ruinous altair after all, a few centimes satisfies our persecutors,and as there are tive hundred centimes in a dollar, a dollar or two suffices for all requirements, After visiting the spot where Wellington stood when he did not say \u201c Up guards and at then,\u201d we left the memorable field and returned to Brussels, where the party separated, well satistied with our day\u2019s outing, though saddened by the thought that we Would never meer again.R.M.\u2014 \u2014\u2014\u2014__ SPORTING

standpoint of only a few years ago.Merry Hampton continues to do well in his exercise at Newmarket, and has decidedly held his own in the little betting that has taken place thisweek.With reference to the Manton colt, Eiridspord, almost similar remarks will serve, and that many are greatly impressed with the idea that the Epsom Grand Prize winner will distinguish himself on the Town Moor is evidenced from the substantial support lately awarded to the hope of Manton.Phil goes well, but Carrasco has had scarcely a good time of late.His late stable-companion, Savile, has come into recognition at about 25 to 1.1 see no reason to alter my opinion already frequently expressed in favor of Merry Hampton, Phil, and Kiridspord, in the order named,\u201d Merry Hampton was in

is in possession of such convicting information on the matter, did not produce it at the late trial before the judicial committee of the western association, to which McCarthy belonged during the

the * National Colonization Lottery \u201d have sent in their report; which states that the total reecipts of the first lottery, between June, 1884, and December, 1886, amounted to $38,501.39, and the expenses to $42,034.05, leaving a deficit of $3,052.68.Among the expenses were $3,412 paid to the sceretary, Mr.S.G.Lefebvre, and 33,100 paid to the lawyer, Mr.L.H.Archam- bault.Father Labelle, in February, 1887, tound himself with a deficit of $4,430.98.He then transterred the lottery to Mr.Alphonse Audet, who assumed the responsibility of the debt, binding himself to give the profits tor colonization purposes after deducting expenses and a legitimate amount to guarantee the working of the scheme.Since that date the receipts of the three draw- ings which have taken place amounted to $13 970.75, Out of that sum, the $4,430.98 deficit was paid, $1,198.30 was giveu for colonization purposes, and the proceeds of the blessing of the colonization bells, $115, was given over to the treasurer of the diocesan colonization lottery.The report further states that the total receipts of the lottery, under Father Labelle's adrinistrat ion and since the transfer, only amount to $33,179.83, or which about one-eighth has been pald for salaries, the balance goiug back to the public in the form of commissions, prizes, advertisements, ete.The commissioners state that everything was carried out honestly, The Grand Vicar has addressed a letter to Father Labelle exonerating him from all blame and expressing the hope that he will still continue to give his patronage to the

time ago.On Friday evening he went with sone others to the entrance of the factory and, it was alleged, when the men were coming out tried to persuade them to join the strike.A number of witnesses were examined on both sides.The Recorder said the offence wasone of great gravity, especially as it appeared defendant's object Was to get the men to join the strike.The sentence he would impose was one month with hard labor and a fine of 325 or three additional months hard labor.Mr.Faryu- har 8.Muclennan, of Messrs.Macinaster & Co., appeared for the complainant, and Mr.Charles J.Doherty, Q.C.,

Hall yesterday >\u201d \u201c1 don\u2019t think that it wil! amount to anything and fzzle through as it\u2019s predecessors have done.At any rate, they have a pretty long job before them.This dreary view, however, appeared to be held only by one person around the corridors of our civie palace.They one and all were contident that the thing would be carried through, especially when a man like Mayor Abbott was at the head of it.Said Ald.Grenier yesterday: \u201cI know the Mayor intends to push the matter through as he has himself assured me of his intention to do so.The first meeting is to be held this afternoon, and as the enquiry is not to adjudicate on,but mercly to enquire in to,cortain charg.s he says that it will be held privaic.Whenthe report is completed, however, and presented to council, he favors giving itthe fullest publicity.\u2014_\u2014 0 SAD HAVOC Which the Fire Fiend Has Created.The tire record for the past month has been an unusually heavy one and the firemen say that

Tait, Alderic Beaudoin and Alphonse Paiement, three con- viets, were arraigned on a charge of deserting from the Bt.Vincent de Paul Penitentiary.They pleaded *\u2018 not guilty,\u201d and their trial was fixed for to-day.Antoine Souchereau, Albert Choquette, Andre Gougeon, Joseph Bissonnette, Pierre Dansereau, Francois Labelle, Pierre Decelles, Maxime Choille, Raoul Poulin and Octave Montigny, bakers, were called to the Bar on a charge of aggravated assault on their employer and his foreman at Coteau St.Louis.The four last named made default and a bench warrant was issued against them.Mr.Auge defended.Au attack was made on Mr.Trudel, a baker, and some of his men by former employees, acting, as is alleged, on a conspiracy.The prisoners were members of the Bakers\u2019 Association, and they demanded an increase in their wages, which Mr.Trudel refused to give.In consequence the men were dismissed, and this led up to the attack tor which they were now prosecuted.Twenty-eight witnesses in all were in court ready to testify, and the evidence of Mr.Tru- del and three other witnesses took up the entire day.When the court adjourned, coun= sel for prisoners applied that they be admitted to bail till to-morrow, and ample security having been offered, this was allowed.The case will be resumed to-day.AN INCREASE In the City\u2019s Revenue.Anything new ?asked a HERALD reporter of the veteran Chairman of Finance in the City Hall yesterday.Yes, replied that gentleman.Ican give you the revenue returns for the month of August, as compared with last year\u2019s.There is an increase in everything except butchers\u2019 licenses and the amount collected for arrears.This last is owing to the ever-lessening amount outstanding each year, and I hope to soon see it entirely wiped out.The butchers are contesting the payment of some of their licenses in court which accounts for the decrease in that item.Although, as a whole, the sheet is not up to my expectations, I think there will be a large increase over last year, especially in assessments, The following are the collections on revenue account to August 3lst, as compared with 1887.1886.Personal
