FATHER IN WITNESS BOA, \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 Seems to be Unconcerned About His Son.emma INTEREST IN THE TRIAL.Counsel for Defence Says it Will Last Three Weeks.Joliette, Que., Jan.19.\u2014(Special.)\u2014The first day of taking evidence in the Nulty murder trial did not result in any startl- developments.The proceedings, indeed, were almost wearisome and tire crowd, which had forced itself into the small courtroom dwindled away as the afternoon drew on.At two o\u2019clock, when the afternoon session began, the place was packed to suffocation and it was found mecessary to lock the doors.A large number of ladies were in attendance, and appeared to be by far the most eager listeners.The crown directed its fire almost all day on Michael Nulty, father of the prisoner, in an effort to establish a motive for the crime.This was done by endeavoring to show, that Tom wanted to get the Nulty house in order to get married.In order to do this Crown Attorney Dugas paid considerable attention to the promise of old man Nulty to his little son, Patrick, to give him the farm if he would be a good boy, thereby alarming Tom.The old gentleman displayed great intelligence in his answers.He said the reference to giving the farm to Patrick was made in a joking manner one day while he was play ing with the little fellow.As to whether \"Tom was present at the time, he could not say; but he had no intention of giving all the property to Patrick and none to the rest.When cross-examined by the Counsel for the defense, Nulty was quite confident that he had given Tom no cause for jealousy; indeed he knew that the elder son was very fond of his little brother.During the cross-examination an anteresting illustration of the poverty of the family was brought out.The old man said that his whole farm 250 acres, fifty of which were under cultivation, could not be sold av any price.Commercially he valued the property at seventy-five dollars.During the whole of his examination the prisoner\u2019s father maintained an indifferent air and at times was even cheerful.During Nulty\u2019s testimony High Constable Levesque produced the clothes which Tom wore on the day of the murder and the ax with which Le committed the deed.Mrs.Louis Riopel, who saw Tom passing her place on the morning of the assissina- Tien, gave her evidence, and then Dr.Bernard, who had examined the bodies of the victims, corroboratea the testimony he had given before Coroner Lafontaine.Dr.Smiley, of Rawdon followed.Mr.DeSalaberry said the defence was willing to admit the deposition as it stood in order to save time, but the Crown prosecutor insisted on his being questioned.This caused Mr.DeSalaberry to remark that if the court proceeded so slowly the trial would last three weeks.Dr.Smiley said the blows which did tho killing were given by a man who knew what he was doing and had given them with evident care and had done so with determination.Vothing New This Morning.Joliette, Que, Jan.19.\u2014(Special.)\u2014 There were four witnesses heard at the Nulty trial this morning, but nothing of any interest developed.Those heard were Andre Morin and Albert Lasalle, who first found the bodies of the victims, Mr.and Mrs.John Tracey, the nearest neighbors of the Nultys, also testified, concluding the morning session.It is understood that this afternoon the confession of Tom will be placed before the courting CHINESE ENTERTAIN Their Teachers and Friends in Hospitable Fashion.The Chinese Sunday school scholars of the First Baptist Church gave a reception last night, and entertained a large number of their friends in the school room.All the arrangements were made by the Chinese themselves.The sdhool room was splendidly decorated with Chinese lanterns, lamps and gaily colored hangings.The programme was almost entirely given by Chinese scholars, and consisted of hymns and songs, with a few readings.A feature of the evening was a Chinese orchestra, which gave several selections of rative music.The committee in charge of the entertainment arranged for the serv- ¥ag of refreshments, and the tea was made by the Chinese and served in Chinese fash- ton.To the usual refreshments were added some Chinese sweetmeats.The way in which these arrangements were made reflected great credit on the committee.\u2014 QUEBEC CITY NEWS.A New Professor of Law Appointed For Laval.Quebec, Jan.19.\u2014(Special.)\u2014Mr.J.T.Frennaut, has been appointed professor of law at Laval University in place of Hon.Mr.Langevin.Mr.R.Clarke, a resident of St.Roch, is the first Quebecer to catch the genuine Klondike gold fever.He started yesterday afternoon for the far away gold fields of the seductive Klondike.\" PILOTS\u2019 GRIEVANGES.They Tell the Commission What They Want.The pilotage commission, under the pre- g:dency of Mr.Justice Lavergne, continued the hearing\u2019 of evidence yesterday after noon.The examination of L.Z.Bouille sas continued, that

deepened to thirty feet and widened to 500 feet at.cuts.REVISERS* WORK DONE Hundreds of Names Taken From the Lists.; Unpaid Taxes Disqualified Many of the Unfortunates.Te Board of Revisors have completed their work and the lists will be closed by Dr.Leprohon this afternoon.The case which occupied the greatest\u201d lemgthi of time was that of Messrs.L.J.and Eugene Tarte who had not paid their tax 3 because they had a contra account against the city and were advised by a city official that they should not pay.Their application to be put on the lists was strongly opposed by parties represented by Avocat Pelland but the decision of the revisors was in favor of the Messrs.Tarte.The names stricken off will be known to-morrow when the court has been completed by the eight clerks who are now ai work upon the lists.The numb« * of rejected mames, it is believed, will be greater than that of any previous year.In the Centre ward alome over 390 nam were written off and the other wards of the city will show a similar average.\u201cHere are a few samples which show hew effective the work of the revisors has been.In district No.4, St.Ann\u2019s ward the list contained ninety-one names but when the revisors were through with it only sixty-nine remained; and in District No.5, same ward, fifty-one names were rejected and eighty allowed {3 remain.St.Jean Baptiste ward district, No.39, now has 115 voters instead of 156 as given by the assessors.The list for district 22, St.Louis ward was reduced from 95 to 58; in No.14 from 141 to 107, and in No.24 from 110 to 83.District No.27, St.Gabriel ward was given 58 votes instead of 73 and No.20 St.Lawrence, 102 instead of 145.These are fair illustrations of the pruning done to the whole list.; The majority of the names were rejected for non-payment of water or business taxes, though a great many were disqualified for other reasons.The revisors say they found no evidence of packing the lists although in one or two instances very strange reasons were advanced as to why certain persons should be permitted to cast their ballots.The name of R.J.Fyfe, St.Paul apd St.Peter Streets was added to the list this morning.; FULL PAY FOR CITY LABORERS Snow Men to Get Twelve and a Hal Cents for an Hours Work.There were three committee meetings at the Oity Hall yesterday afternoon, and considerable business wihidh had been delayed from time to time was cleared off.The committees which met were the Mount Royal Park, City Hall and Roads.The business before the Parks Committee was that which has occupied their attention for months past, the charges which had been laid against Park Ranger McGibbon.A report reinstating him was adopted.City Hall Committee.The session of the City Hall Commibtee was not long, the committee merely adopting finally Plan No.3 for the sanitary repairs to the City Hall.Roads Committee.The grievances of the snow shovellers were dealt with by the Road Committee.Mr.St.George, the City Surveyor, said that some $11,000 had already been spent on the streets, and if the present weather continued, it was probable that it would cost the city $70,000 before the close of the season.In regard to paying higher wages, he simply pointed out that when he appeared before the Finance Committee for additional appropriations, he was twitted for his extravagance.He would like to treat the laborers more liberally, but he had not the means to do so.It was decided to report in favor of granting the men twelve and a half cents per hour.Hon.Mr.Blair, Minister of Railways and Canals, wrote the committee that the question of rebuilding the Seigneurs street bridge was under they consideration of the Government.Mr.St.George submitted a report showing that there were now pending actions for damages against the city to the amount of $47,000.He pointed out that a large amount of this sum was due to the cutting down of the appropriation of the department wheérdby he was precluded from carrying out much needed improvements and necessary works, LADY SYKES WON, A Verdict in Her Favor Rendered Yesterday.London, Jan.19.\u2014A verdict in favor of Lady Tatton Sykes was rendered yesterday in the suit

ground that the signatures were forged.MADAME D\u2019ALVIGNY WILL SING.This celebrated foreign contralto has wired Mr.Harriss an acceptance -of his offer to appear on Thursday night at the Plancon

by Mr.Heinze on behalf of the Columbia and Western Railway to build his road from Robson to Penticton.The whole line has been surveyed, and kbout forty miles constructed, and the intention is to build other smelters along the line.The efforts of the C.P.R.to extinguish this railway and kill off competition are viewed with much disfavor here.An independent, prac- teal, tndustrial enterprise like this combination of milway and smelter interests is just what is wanted in British Columbia.The first act of the new council of this thriving dity was to pass a strong resa- Jution endorsing a subsidy to the Columbia and Western.Petitions to the Dominion end Provincial Governments are being freely signed.CORN EXCHANGE.Nominations for Officers Are on the Increase.The nominations for offices on the

NEW EVIDENCE 1S TO HAND.The Klondike Impostor Has an Unenviable Record, ert Ottawa, Jan.19.\u2014(Special.)\u2014At yesterday\u2019s meeting of the Cabinet it was decided that the Minister ofl Justice should by an order in writing duect a new trial in the Sternaman case.It is ünderstood that tnis was not because of any dissatisfaction with thes proceedings of the court anu jury and trial judge by which Mrs.Sternaman was convicted, but because several important afii- davita were filed with the department making representations which, if they had been made at the trial, might have altered the result.As the crime for which Mrs.Sterna- man was convicted was one of the most atrocious that a human being can commit, it does not seem that there was any inclination on the part of the Cabinet to commute her sentence if she were really guilty, but if these parties\u2019 testimony were given it might have vanied that sentence.Therefore, it is thought that they should be called upon to give their evidence in court, where they can be subjected to a proper cross-examination.The relations between the husband and wife were such that any wickeder or more base crime could not be well committed by the one upon the other than that of administering poison, because it is an offence which is most difficult of resisting, and this diabolical act may be committed without even.exciting a suspicion.The new trial is ordered; under section 748 of the Criminal Code of 1892.This is the first time that this procedure has been taken, as it is the first time that an occasion has arisen.when it was expedient to do so.It has not yet been decided where the new trial may take place or before what court.The prisoner is poor, and complaint has been made that she was not able on this account to make the \u2018necessary preparations for her defence in the first instance, but those who have petitioned on her behalf for the exercise of the clemency to which, upon the evidence submitted in the first instance, she could not legally lay claim, may now give her that pecuniary assistance that will leave no doubt upon the publie mind.If she fails to vindicate \u2018her innocence, it will be bedause The cha-\u201ce against her is well founded.1f, by the aid of those who have taken an interest in her, she can establish her innocence, none will regret it.Section 748 of the Criminal Code reads as follows:\u2014\u201cIf upon any application for the mercy of the Crown on behalf of any person convicted of any indictable offence, the Minister of Justice entertains a doubt whether such person ought to have been convicted, he may instead of advising Her Majesty to remit; or commute the sentence after such enquiry as he thinks proper, by an order in writing direct a new trial at such time and before such court as he may think proper.\u201d More About Impostor Macdonald.Alexander Macdonald, the Klondike impostor, who was in Ottawa last week after certain official documents, which he failed to procure, and who worked himself into the friendship of some of Ottawa\u2019s leading citizens, has again been heard irom.He has returned to the Interior Department copies of letter headings which he Took away with him, and has also written to William Ogilvie, declaring that his sole object was to prevent frauds in the Unifed States.Ome of the officers of the Post Office Department has received a photograph from a gentleman in Toronto, asking him to find out if it was not the picture of Macdonald.The photograph was placed in the hands of Mr.Sherwood, chief of Dominion .police, who at once said it was Macdonald\u2019s.A number of people in Ottawa were shown it and identified it at once.Among those who did so was the bookkeeper at the Russell, where Macdonald stayed during his residence here.The Toronto gentleman says the photograph was taken four years ago, and that it was the picture of a man who was a slick swindler, and who apent seventeen months in Auburn, N.Y., State prison.When Macdonald wrote the Department of the Interior last he was in New York.Steamship Business.Mr.John Torrance, of the Dominion Line, is here on business with the Government.James Huddart, of the Cana- dian-Australian Steamship Line, had an interview with the Minister of I'rade and Commerce to-day.\u2018Who Rules the Yukon?It is understood to be the intention of the Government to introduce legislation in Parliament this session defining the position of the unorganized territories in the North-West, and declaring them formally to be under the jurisdiction of the Federal authority.The executive of the North- West Territories at Regina seems to be laboring under the impression that they have some authority in the Yukon, and Premier Haultain was credited a few weeks ago in the press with saying that the executive intended to send up a party of officials to Yukon, their chief license inspector to be one of them.In the North-West Assembly four or five weeks ago a debate was brought up on a newspaper report that the Government at Ottawa had imposed a tax of $2 a gallon on whiskey going into the Yukon, and on that occasion Premier Haultain made a speech in which he asserted his policy, and took high ground about the jurisdiction of the Territorial Government in the Yukon, WANTS $5,000 DAMAGES.Quebec, Jan.19.\u2014(Special.)\u2014The widow of F.X.Pouliot is

growing evil, Dr.Davidson\u2014In view of the constant attacks on the validity of the Anglican Orders, the Bishop should be requested to give sermons from time to time on the subject, The report of the committee which had the Bishop\u2019s charge under consideration, caused some sensation.The Bishop wrote to every paridh in the diocese asking tor a report on its registers.About fonty of these

Jan.19.\u2014The Tsung-Li-Yamen (the Chinese Foreign Office) has had another conference on the subject of the loan, which is still unsettled.Besides the right to extend the Burmah railroad through Yun-Nan Province (the most south-western Province of China), Great Britain asks the right to build railroads through the Province of Sze-Schuan, north of Yun-Uan, and a third treaty mort is demanded, the identity of which, no doubt, is Siang-Yin, south of Tung-Timg Lake, in the anti-foreign Province of Hu- Nan, which, Japan proposed to open at the time of the Shimoneseki negotiations.The proposed opening of the port of Ta- lien-Wan (on the Lai-Tung peninsula, and to the north of Port Arthur, a position whidh would command the railroad connecting Port Arthur with the morth and Manchuria) continues to be the chief difficulty, Russia desiring to keep the whole of Manchuria for herself.Neither power is willing to yield on this point, and the question is no longer a commercial one.It has become political.The British Flagship.Yokohama, Jan.19.\u2014The British battleship Centurion, flagship of the British squadron in Chinese waters, has arrived at Nagasaki, The organ of the Government

connected with ithe Thomson \u2018Steamship Line, but when the Johnston Line came to Montreal he was appointed their wharf superintendent, which position he held until his death.He leaves a widow and one daughter to mourn his loss.BRANTFORD COTTON MILL Dominion Cotton Co, Consider What its Future is to be.Messrs.Whitehead and Craig of the Dominion Cotton Company, have been in Brantford the last few days in connection with the company\u2019s mill there.The mill is very much out of date and the question which the company is trying to settle is whether to put in new machinery, or to give up the mill.altogether.At present the mill is a source of loss to the company.The value of a mill in the west is fully recognized but it is out of the question to continue to run as at present.The cost is much increased by the insufficiency of the hydraulic power which frequently necessitates the use of steam power.A DEADLOCK BROKEN.Ottawa, Jan.19.\u2014The deadlock which has existed in civic affairs

Mesdames of Old New France, and - the Early English Gov: ernors Pass in Review.In the days of New France There were maids fair and courtly, Who, with air of romance, In the days of New France, Stepp\u2019d the stately old dance With some Governor portly.Ah those days of New France When the maidens were courtly.AST night, had the ghost of that | gallant eoldier and gentle man, Paul de Chomedey, Sieur de Maisonneuve, wandered, back to the island city which he founded, some two hundred and fifty years ago, he might have been deluded into dreaming that the Fieur de Lys of France still waved over the New World.For, indeed, the historical ball given by the Women's Antiquarian Society of Montreal was a resurrection, an idyllic re-incarnation, of that stately and staring Maisonneuve period.For ore brief night the phantom glory of New France blazed forth again; for one enchanted evening the shining Fleurs de Lys of France floated again above those colors that Wolfa once planted on the wally of the old gray Fortress City.The wheels of time turned backward, and three lost centuries came flut- {ering back to uw in one bewildering scene.And with them came the legend, the romance, the twilight enchantment of that dim early dawn of our fair Dominiom.last evening\u2019s ball would be an historical one in every sense of the word.In the days of Romance Was it folly and laughter They gave for their France ?Ah me for Romauce Their life-blood, perchance # And we who.come after, We talk of Romance Amid ladies and laughter Tt was just ten o'clock when the two richly-bedecked heralds blew the inaugural bugle blast.Each of the different groups bad already assembled at its appointed part of the hall.Two minutes dater a second bugle blast announced the arrival of His Excellency, the Earl of Aberdeen, who entered the hall, preceded by his aide-de- camp, Captain Wilberforce.The orchestra crashed out with the National Anthem, and as His Excellency proceeded to the dais on the right side of the hall a wave of low curtseys swept down the glittering line of guests, One minute later the Countess of Aberdeen end the other members of \u2018the viceregal party entered, and, preceded by the heralds, made theimwway to It was as if the wine of Canadian history had been drained and gathered in one intoxicating glass.It seemed as if the pages of Parkman had been magically transformed from literature into life.The sober gray habit of the Recollet, the close black cossack of the Jesuit\u2014had only these been present, there would have been e finished picture of those early illug- trious days of La Nouvelle France.As it was, the scene that was enacted: last night in the great hall of the Windsor Hotel was not only one of mere charm end beauty.It was one of histor ical significance.It revealed how an old- time tragedy has altered and evolved into what we can now look upon ms comedy.Such a scene is not without its lesson.For it was, indeed, those early soldiers of France, who raised above an alien sprey thir national emblem, who were the shapers of our \u2018history.It was they who cast the dice with Down\u2014and if they lost, \u201cIf nevermore from bastions gray.\u201d Float the pale Fleurs de Lys of France, the intermingled Union Jack and Tri-color that swayed above the purple dais where sat the representative of our Queen showed eloquently enough that all the old feuds end the old bitterness had been forgotten.Such a function as this, with such es- sociations, takes unto itself the significance of momething more than a mere Vice Regal reception, and a greater dignity than attaches to à mere dance.It was, in fact, the crystallization of the poetry of Canadien history, the very flower of our four centuries\u2019 growth.It was a Canadian jubilee in miniature.And the Canadian who did not feel the stirring, thriling sense of loyalty and patriotism running through it all must have known little of the history of his country.Now the maids of New France Scan the pages of story, With a sigh for Romance\u2014 Now, the maids of New France Would revive the old dance But ah ! not the old glory As the maids of New France, Scan the pages of story, As early as mine o'clock a long line of slaighg were depositing their fair burdens at the ladies\u2019entrance of the Windsor Hotel.By half-past nine the large reception corridor was crowded with its hundreds of guests.It was a fascinating picture.There wag many a fair girl who looked as if she had stepped from the frame of some old picture, and many a stately dame whe seemed to have just dropped from the court of Louis the Fourteenth.There were the dainticet of old Watteau gowns, creations of pale rose and gold and those exquisite shell-ints that Wattean alone knew how to blend.girls with white wings in their light golden hair.There were officers in glittering uniforms, and soldiers who might have stepped from the pages of Kirby's \u201cGolden Dog,\u201d and there were courtiers and cavaliers and gallants, and even two Indian chiefs.Many an old jewel box bad been robbed of its ramily heirlooms for the occasion.One could catch sight of dozens of rare old jewels and miniatures and little old-fashioned fans.Amd those beautitul old-fashioned pink and white gowns, and great skirts of rich brocaded silk that fell in such heavy, -clear folds, made one almost wonder if the nineteently century had not lost the art of dressing.Never in the history of Canada had there been such a congregation of beauty and wealth.Old paintings had been examined, records had been consulted, histories had been re-read, that the costumes and the coiffures, even, might be historically accurate.t would be difficult to picture in words the dazzling bewildering, confused richness and beauty and coloring of.it all.As-Dr.Drummond stated.There were Norse: | the dais, where His Excellency awaited them.The Countess greeted the representative of Her Majesty with the most gracious of court bows, and took her place beside him on the dais.The different groups were then announe- ed and présented, two by two, to their Excellencies.The performance of this duty occupied almost one hour, and it was all but eleven when the opening eet of lancers was started.Those who took part in the official set were :\u2014 His Excellency and Madame Prevost.Lady Aberdeen and Mon.Rouer«Roy.Mr.White Ridley and Mrs.Gordon.Dr.Sherriss and Mrs.H.Montague Allan.Dr.Yates and Mrs.Arthur S.Hardy.Senator Forget and Madame Thibaudeau.Sir Wm.Hingston and Lady Lacoste.Senator Thibaudeau and Mrs.Sherriss, Col.Gordon and Miss Prevost.Judge Wurtele and Madame Roy.Judge Wurtele and Madame Roy.Mr.W.McPherson and Mrs.Tait.Two minuets were denced, one by the groupe comprised of the English Governors, and the other by the De Ramezay group.During these dances the hall presented a most beautiful might.The atmosphere of the historit was everywhere apparent.The old governors gazed down from their pictures, hung along the walls.Fastened high above the large windows and hanging in graceful folds masses of spangled blue bunting were draped along the entire length of the hall, caught up here and there with glittering medallions and trophies of flage.On each of the many pillars was an immense group of flags, \u201cthe old and the new,\u201d at stated intervals.The old white flag with its sprinkling of gold fleur-de-lys, the flag that for many years flew over Canada, was prettily draped next the Union Jack.Bunting in red and other colors filled up many a vacant spot, and it was made pretty with the yellow fleur-de-lys bestrewing it.The dais in the centre of the hall on the right was an unusually effective piece of work.From a large coronet fell heavy folds of crimeon velvet and cloths of red and gold, Around the walls, too, in the centre of each of the groupings of flags, were the arms and bearings of the governors of the colony.Some very good pieces of tapestry were displayed, and at each window was an historical portiail, a picture of ome one of the governors of Canada brought up from the Chateau\u2019s portrait gallery for the occasion.In the centre of the balcony was prominently placed the Aberdeen crest, and from walls and chandeliers and ceiling glistened innumerable golden fleur-dedys.They were everywhere, from the stairway to the remotest corner sought by adventurous sitters-out.The one regrettable feature of the evening, oË course, was the fact that it had been found impossible to hold the ball in the Chateau iteelf.It was, perhaps, just a trifle incongruous, just a trifle out of context, this tranaplanting of the old governors from the Chateau to a modern hotel.But such a thing had ite compensating advantages.The floor of the hall alone might excuse such a move.It was in excellent condition and glimmered like plate-glass.One could see different ladies and cavaliers try its smooth surface just as one tries fresh-formed ice, so beautifully polished were those maple boards.More than one dancer slipped during the evening, and it was no wonder.Dancing lasted until the early hours of the morning, and the programme, as the following list will show, was an extremely lengthy ome: ~\u2014 Lancers.«4 oe vv .Colonnade.Waltz.+ 2e + + +.Artist.Waltz.we.- nN .ee LN] °.À.Babbie, Minuet.,

OFFICE.343 TELEPHONES.-\\ gprronian Rooks.351 HERALD PUBLISHING CO.Jas.8.BrIErLEY, Managing Director MONTREAL, JANUARY 19.ON THE BVE OF NOMINATIONS.To-morrow te citizens will place in nomination the men who, as mayor and al derment, will have in their trust the ed- ministration of Montreal during the next two years, years thet bid fair to be eventful, The mayor end aldermen who are to be chosen to-morrrow or ben days hence will have many important projects to discuss and settle before the close of their term of office, and citizens cannot too carefully weigh the capahilities of the men who are to be entrusted with the guardian: ¢hip of the city\u2019s interests in thet period.In its legislative capacity the mew coun cil will be called upon to give the most earnest consideration to two projects of great moment, the question of combining under one administration all those municipalities which in reality constitute the city of Montreal, and the revision and amendment of the charter under authority of which the affaire of the city are cone duated.These are both weighty and important matters and will demand the exer cise of the best talent at the command of the citizens, Im the two years that will constitute the term of the new Council, Montreal is also promised an era of enlarged commercial activity.There will be important works to \u2018be undertaken and urged to completion on the river front and in other places, designed to improve the facilitiee of Montreal as an ocean port and as the centre of a nationel railway systern.There will be the construction of the docks and the erecfion of the Grand Trunk city offices to begin with; and it is by no.means improbable that there will be other schemes of like magnitude on the boards before the term of the mew Council expires, including, we fear, thoee premature projects which were temporarily defeated at Quebec à few days ago.; In the way of impreviag and reforming the civic administration, there is much to be done, but with seemingly little hope of accomplishing anyt.g of importance.The reign of the give-and-taks principle in the Council, of exchanging favors to aldermen or their wards in return for votes on critical occasions, is so pernicious in its general results, and the system is so difficult to break down that it will be only by the most unususl and unselfish exertions that anything in the way of better ment of the conditions can be accomplished.A band of four or five active, intelligent and thoroughly unselfish aldermen, acting together, could break up all the rings that afflict the City Hall and lay bare to the public gaze the corrupting and corrupted influences that infest the place.The citizens\u2019 hope for good government lies in the formation and maintenance of such a combination.The leaders of the Counoil seem also to be taken with the idea of a consolidation of the debt the city, a transaction which we fear it will be difficult to accomplish without the taxpayers losing and fortunate capitalists and brokers gaining considerably in the process.The utmost vigilance wil have to be exercised im protecting the city from needless loss in this way.The debt has become a gigantic burden already, far exceeding in amount what a city of the size of Montreal can safely afford.Im the Council and out of it no effort should be spared to prevent its rising yet higher.Further increase would be for the gratification and profit of the few, no doubt, but would lead to the injury and loss of the many out of whose scanty wages the price of extravagance is always, im the last analysis, collected.The two years ahead will be memorable Years for Montreal.Let us have the best men that oan be secured to take charge of her affairs.CHIEF BENOIT'S STAND.Chief Benoit said the other day that he intended waiting for the appointment of a new committee in order to bring forward the affairs of the Fire Department for a thorough discussion.The Chief is right.If it is impossible to keep the stations and apparatus in repair on $3,000 a year it is highly proper that he should remonstrate with the committee and with the Council, and either secure a langer appropriation for that purpose, or be empowered to effect economies in other directions where even a measure of inefficiency would be less dangerous to the interests of the citizens.It is true the Chief should have done this three years ago instead of waiting until now, and meanwhile ordering what he wanted on tha credit of the city but without the least authority for doing 80.But something has been achieved by the full discussion of the subject a few weeks ago, when the Chief has been brought to a realization of bis position and has been brought to resolve upon taking a proper and a legal course.It is a commentary on the Fire Cem- mittee that the Chief of the brigade should ties in this way.We can only hope that wext year there will be men on that committee who will bave euf- ficient epinal rigidéty to insist upon receiving from Council what à necessary to maintain the brigade, or will reorganize the department in such a way as will prevent the possibility of a recurrence of the illegal methods which have prevailed during the last three years, es well as ensure to the city an ample protection against loss from conflagrations.MAKING HAY.In the Notre Dame west expropriation, from Chaboillez Square to the limits, the Prefontaine firm had a good-sized clientele and collected a pretty fair bill from the city for law costs.The amounts charged in the city\u2019s books as paid

$2,051.80.The expropriations for 1894 therefore yielded this firm $2,675.05, and all other firms $2.122.00.Certainly a most extraordinary mark of confidence.And on the top of that when the proceedings were stopped the firm put in another bill for $10,135, and seized the City Hall because it was wot paid.There is nothing like making the most of a good thing.A FORECAST.Ald.Prefontaine seems determined the Grand Trunk shall have city offices cither on Victoria Square or on some other site for which the eity will pay $250,000.We have already expressed disapproval of the Victoria Square donation, and it is cany to forecast what would be involved in the purchase of a site.The fact to which we have to make up our minds is that the city would pay at least double the amount for which any such property is entered on the assessment be «hiiged to shoulder their responsibili- rolls.Here is a list showing the sums THE HERALD, WEDNESDAY JANUARY 19, 1898.The very Cream of Sparkling Moselle

brought the total cost up to $650,000.The citizens have good reason to distrust both plans favored by Mr.Prefontaine, If the city is to bargain with the G.T.R., the negotiations on ite behalf should be conducted by a man who will hold out for the interests of the citizens, not by one whose view accommodates itself to that of the manager of the railway.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 WHERE ARE THE NEWSPAPERS?The result of the interviewing which The Herald staff has done has elicited the fact that all those citizens who favor Mr.Prefontaine for Mayor speak freely enough for publication.The most of those who do not favor him and who would vote against him if there was another candidate in the field, will not speak publicly unless there were a contest.This being so are we not justified in concluding that those newspapers which have not spoken in favor of Mr.Prefontaine ave opposed to him?The papers which have not spoken a word in his favor eo far as we have observed are: The Herald.The Witness, The Gazette.The Star, La Patrie, La Presse.And eo on throughout the whole list of the city\u2019s publication, French or English.If, as Ald.Prefontaine says in his letter, nine-tenthe of the people of all natioër alities want him to be mayor, is it not strange that no newspapers can be found to support him?MR.PREFONTAINE'S EXPROPRIATION POLICY.The participants in expropriation proceedings, so far as profit and loss account is concerned, may be roughly divided into two classes, the citizens at large who always pay much more than they should for such property as is expropriated, and the proprietors and attorneys who always come out at the big end of the horn.The expenses of conducting expropriations are always very large, ranging from 5 to 30 per cent.of the indemnities paid to proprietors, and amounting in the average to about 10 per cent.The following table shows how it cost $467,097 in fees to lawyers, witnesses, and commissioners to expropriate property worth $4,304,171.Ex- Indemn1- Total penses, ties.cost.Nellide .\u2026.\u2026.8 153 8 2068 $ 2,221 Ruisseau Migeon ., 506 8,198 8,680 Coleraine .1,344 3,623 4,967 Lagauchetiere (west) .1.195

Alexander weeping for more worlds to conquer is a back number beside Prefon- taine sighing for a greater Montreal to boss.The mayoralty candidate declares that he is in favor of comstructing a Greater Montreal and of cultivating better rela ! the city is about to elect a Mayor\u2014and is any mention of the Manitoba School question, preferential trade, the Chinese em- broglio or the best route to the Yukon.His policy is incomplete.Mr.Prefontaine seems to be badly in want of newspaper support.On the other hand he is profiting by the con- epiracy of silence.In the matter of the annual expropriations of 1894, our sympathies are with all the other law firms of Montreal, which could only get $2,100 of costs, all told.The Herald begs to remind the newspapers on its Montreal exchange list, that making a mighty bad choice.The next two years give promise of an abundant and entertaining news budget from the City Hall.It will cost the citizens something, but as Mr.Prefontaine says, \u201cThat is a matter for after consideration.\u201d What newspapers are supporting Ald.Prefontaine for the mayoralty?Does no newspaper, French or English want to represent that \u201cnine-tenths\u201d who are calling for Mayor Prefontaine?It seems useless to argue that expropriations are good for law business, when all the other firms in the city only got $2,100 from the annuals of 1894.It is true the wrefontaine firm got $2,600, but that exception only goes to prove the rule.Next year the City Treasurer will charge up a few hundred thousand for discount on bonds eold.The year following the same bonds will be quoted at a premium.Query:\u2014Who is going to get the \u201crake.off?\u201d PE Here are the names of the newspapers which have favored Mr.Prefontaine\u2019s mayoralty aspirations:\u2014 If he would fortify his programme of Home Rule for Montreal and economy in the administration of the city By five substantial bonds of a million dollare each and give an undertaking under oath to prevent all expropriations and all dealings with private corporations for his term of office, The Herald might see its way to agree in Mr.Prefontaine\u2019s nomination.A convert deserves some encouragement.The Star has had mot a word to say about the election of a mayor for the city, but it has come out strong for an amendment to the B.N.A.act which shall remove all our municipal evils.What the Star wants is @ city charter which will ward off dishonest men after the treasury j unsafe guardian.} plished our advanced contemporary will get up a flare-headed agitation for an tions with the United States.He avoids has been handed over tq the keeping of an After this is accom- amendment to the law of Sinai, which shall make horsetraders honest, and make circuses tell the truth.DEAF MAN KILLED.Burlington, Ont, Jan.19.\u2014William Archer, a vesident of Burlington, while walking on the railway track, two miles east of here yesterday, was struck by a C.P.R.train, bound for Hamilton, and instantly killed.Mr.Archer was very deaf.WANT FEWER LICENSES.Toronto, Jan.19.\u2014The Ontario Alliance will \u2018hold a conference shortly, for the pur pose of arranging for the provincial election campaign.The members are displeased with the fact that the number of liquor licenses has not been reduced as they asked.Fine \u2014 Watch Repairing.We See our No occasion to Do not have your watch spoilt.guarantee our work to last.NEW GOODS.spend car-fare, WwW.J.PALMER, 872 St.Antoine Street.NEAR CANNING ST.& 28 2 ADAMS\u2019 AIDS DIGESTION.A fety of very hand- FREE.some and Tasefal presents of sets of coupons from Tutti 8 Frutti Gum.Get one.164 eh are sent free for the return N SH) CNG CRIS oD Our Winter Stock of Sleighs Is now complete.No other firm in the city are in a position to supply as good an article for the money as we are.We have the following goods in stock, or will make them to order :\u2014 COUPE SLEIGHS, VICTORIAS, \u2014- CASINO SLEIGHS, WINDSOR SLEIGHS.SPIDER SLEIGHS, SPEEDING SLEIGHS, TILBURY SLEIGHS, | AMUSEMENTS.AMUSEMENTS.Tillo The pretty domestic drama head the Vaudeville bill.Prices-100, 200.and 260, CAVAIS ° o ?: ° ?° ° ° ?° o : Terms Cash.AAA Ve ee Ge PHILLY Ps, we Lessee and Manager.meme 7 NDOOD) tson\u2019s Greatest effor bats RSON BROTHERS, acrobats, Introducing MISS MARIE DORAN, ingenue, PATTHREOF E15, tn i 10 p.m.tr JOHN MURPHY § C0.A Le BASEMENT BARGAINS IN FIRST QUALITY Granite Ware! \u201cSnap\u201d Prices\u2014for Balance of Week only.SPECIAL!
