that its readers that Government policy at the present time the Teslin Lake-Glenora is to extend the Railway to a British Columbia port at an carly date\u2019 is à belated acceptance of the mevitable.#+#*#*\"The Government ap- banked on the friendliness and parently neighborliness of the American Government, thus displaying à spirit child-like and bland and a charming innocence of the history of the continent.\u201d The Star is either extraordinarily ignorant or studiously dishonest in this statement.The announce ment is not belated; it was made on the 2th January when the contract was first entered into.The Government\u2019s policy is the same to-day as it was on the day \u201che contract was entered into.On the 28th of January The Herald, commenting upon the contract used the following words: \u2014 \u201cBut provision has been made for a prolongation of the railway from the Stickeen River southward to Portland Canal, an ocean port in British Columbia open all the year round.This is tofMoe proceeded with when required by the Government of Canada, in which case the contractors ere to have the chance to construct it if they agree to the terms imposed by the Government.\u201d Almost immediately after the publication of the contracts ferms, the questign of the navigation of the Stickeen under the treaty was discussed.The Herald had an article on the 29th January under the caption \u201cNavigation on the It was understood perfectly well that the power lay with the United Sates to put difficulties in the way of the exercise of Canada\u2019s treaty

by Canada abandoning her rights and stopping all railway construe- on our tion for a year ?Nothing; and a great deal would be lost.If the Opposition\u2019s view were adopted, Canada would be

Canada has cnly recently been given the direction of her own international affairs.In the past Canadians have complained that their rights have been surrendered and sacrificed.They will not now themselves abandon their rights, at the very outeet of the first dispute which has fallen to Canadian diplomacy under the new era,\u2014and abandon them moreover in a manner most uwaw- rentable and humiliating.ONTARIO DAIRYMEN Recommend That the Coming Season Be a Short One.Kingston, March 9.\u2014(Special.)\u2014The directors of the Butter and Cheese Association of Eastern Qntario, in session here, has passed a resolution declaring that in view of the Béavy stocks of 1897 dheese in hand, 6 will be in the interests of dairymen of Ontario not to manufacture cheese in April or November of

Cut This Afternoon.VAN HORNE IN WASHINGTON The Rate War Gets a Trifle More Interesting.Once more the Canadian Pacific's axe has fallen on transcontinental rates.The new cut, considering the low rate already in existence, is a large one.Five doliars has Teen chipped off the existing rate, and, after to-morrow morning, it will be possible to travel from Montreal to tne Pacific coast for $25.The new rates, taking effect to-morrow morning, will be as follows :\u2014From ail statfons in Ontario and Quebec; with the exception où those east of Levis and north and east of Quebec, to Vancouver, Vie- toria, Seattle and Tacoma, $35 first-class and $25 second-class.From the same eastern points to Portland, Oregon, $40 first- class and $30 second-class.From Me- Adam Junction, N.B., to Vancouver and other coast points, $43.25 first-class and $31.50 second-class; from the same New Brunswick points to Portland, $48.25 first- class and $36.50 second-class.From St.John, St.Stephen, and St.Andrew to Vancouver the rare will be $43.50 first-class and $31.50 second-class.To St.Paul and Minneapolis, There has also been made a cut m rates to 8t.Paul, Minneapolis and Duluth.From all stations in Ontario and Quebec east of Kingston, Sharbot Lake Junction and Pembroke, but not east of Levis or east or north of Quebec, the old cut rate to St.Paul and Minneapolis was $18 first- class and $16 second-class.The new rate, going into effect to-morrow, will be $05 first-class and $13 second-class.\u2018The rate from New Brunswick had been treated to a corresponding reduction.The circular announcing this new tar has not yet been made public, but will be published to-morrow.Sir William in Washington.While the officials at the Windsor station deciine to discuss the purpose of Sir Wm.Van Horne\u2019s present visit in Washington, such a visit, made at such a time, is not without special significance.Mr.Shaughnessy, Vice-President of the road, is at the same time at Outawa.Both, of course, are looking after the interests of their railway, but what their particular mission is, would be premature to state.The G.T.R.\u2019s Barge Office.When, asked this morning regarding the establishment of an Independent Barge Of- i fice for the securing of ymmigrant business | at New York, a Grand Trunk official made the following statement: | \u201cYes, it s quite true the Grand Trunk | have opened up an office of their own.We | Will now have a Barge Office of our own, independent of the Trunk Line Association to divide evenly all immigrant business among the different lines out of New York.The Grand Trunk found that it was not being justly treated, and to protect its own interests it has been forced to secede from the association.\u201d Passenger Traffic Manager MeNigdholl, of the Canadian Pacific, returned to Montreal this morning from New York, where be has been attending the meeting of the Joint Traffic Association.When asked today by a Herald reporter how the result of this meeting would affect the position of the Canadian Pacific, Mr.McNicoll stated that mothing definite had been done.\u201cIn fact,\u201d said Mr.MeNicoll, \u201cI found that the Grand Trunk was not willing to speak for the other American lines with which it has been acting.So we have asked those other lines to come and present their case to the joint Traffic meeting to be held next week.\u201d When asked how the Grand Trunk\u2019s establishment of an independent barge office at New York immigration business would affect the C.P.IR.Mr.MeNicoll said he did not think it was of very much importance.In \u2018act, the thing had seemed so insignficant that he had not taken the trouble, he said, to verify the report.G.T.R- WINNIPEG TRAIN, The New Service Was Inaugurated From Toronto Last Night.Toronto, Ont., March 9.\u2014(Special)\u2014The Grand Trunk Railway inaugurated a new feature in its train service last night by the departure for the first time by through coionist trains to Winnipeg by way of Chicago and St.Pau.+ The company is placing four new colonist sleeping cars on the service, which will be continued during March and April, and, by the way, it may be mentioned that these are free.Two of the cars were at the Union Depot last might.For comfort, convenience, and even elegance of design and finish, the cars are far superior to the sleeping cars ordinarily supplied to colonists going through to the west.The new Grand Trunk western service is a weekly ome, and consists ot a irain with stack and settles\u2019 effecls to which is attached a colonist sleeper and then a colonist sleeping service attached to the regular Grand Trunk Chicago express on Tuesday evening, and Wednesday morning.The first through live stock and settlers\u2019 effect train left here at 7 o'clock last night with the eolonist car attached.The idea in this car is that intending colonists with their families can take this train, which runs straight through to Winnipeg, and look after their stock on the journey.Last night there was a good train out of there, and the number of cars would be augumented by the time the train reached the Tunnel.Those colonists who had no effects beyond their personal baggage left last might .in the sleeper attached to the Chicago train thait left here at 11.20 o'clock.This service, also weekly, takes passengers by way of Hamilton, London, Sarnia.Chicago and St.Paul, and will reach Winnipez at 1.30 none of the jurors had already formed a iu .: se.kon the case.10, on.Friday\" 77 300 MILES OF NEW BALWAY BUILT, The Annual Report Issued by

Restore Rates on March 14, The rate war has taken on a mew and surprising aspect.It is stated today that the Grand Trunk, contrary to all rules of the Joint Traffic Association, of which it is a member, yesterday opened in New York at the Barge Office an office of its own for the sale of immigrant tickets.this, the Grand \u2018lrunk has violated its agreement as a member of the association.As such, it is denied the privilege of doing an independent ir\u2018nigrant business, and ts forced to do 1.3 booking through the joint agent, who for many years has been authorized to transact business for all the railroads belonging to the association.No railway ine is supposed to sell tickets for the eastern railroads at the Barge is authorized to divide the outgoing railroad traffic equally among the cight initial lines leading out of the port of New York.| : The Grand Trunk had previously made a deal with the western roads, whereby the latter agreed to serd all of their 1mma- grants over the G.T.R., which, of course, has close traffic relations with the Lehigh Valley, sending, in fact, most of its New York business over that line.In order to carry out its plan, if was Suspension Bridge, from the joint agent, for $6 apiece.The Grand Trunk could then give an immigrant passenger one of these tickets, and attach to it tickets reading West, to which the present demoralized rates now apply.The established Trunk line immigrant rate from New York to St.Paul is $26.50, and of this amount the trunk lines insist on their full proportion of $13.50.Interested railway men say there is no doubt that the Grand Trunk shares ine loss, if any, with the western lines.ln this way, it is said, the western lines are striving to bring the trunk lines to their assistance in their struggle against the Canadian Pacific.The trunk lines, as & well known, have declined, hitherto, to enter into the fray.So, failing in their requests to the trunk lines, the western roads have now devised this plan to bring their eastern connections to time, and, 1t this cannot be done, to absolutely break up the Trunk Line Association.\u2018This 18 the significance of the deal with the Grana Trunk to send all of their immigration business over that road and the Lehigh Valley.1t 1s said the Lehigh Valley allows a rebate from the $6 that is paid at the Barge Office for its tickets.In the absence ot positive proof, however, eastern passenger agents are distracted at seeing business leaving them by the wholesale, If it can be proved that the Lehigh Val ley is accepting less than its proportion it can De assessed a very heavy penalty for violation of the agreement, and on its refusal to pay some of the other lines, it is stated, would undoubtedly withdraw.The most serious part of the situation 19 the reduction in rates out of New York.thereby opening the door to a .like redue- tion on first and second class traffic, since the western railroads threaten to turn all of this business over {&o

Senate a letter from a daughter of a Pres: dent of the United States and former mistress of the White House illustrative of the change which the whirligig of fortune brings to pass Mrs.Letitia Tyler Semple is now at the age of about eighty, an inmate of the Louis Home, an institution for impoverished gentlewomen, foundad in this city by the late William W.Cor- coran.Widows of Southern gentlemen and slave-holders are given the preference at the Louise Home; in fact, admission to it is a conclusive teset of membersh'p of the select aristocracy of the South.But in other respects it resembles what is generally known as an \u201cold ladies\u2019 home.\u201d Mrs.Semple, who resides there, writes to Senator Vest as follows :\u2014 I have not the honor to have met you, but, as Missouri is a daugater of Vir ginia, I do not hesitare to call upon you, cne of her noble sons, to extend to me kind consideration.Very recently your body, the Senate, granted to Mrs.Dan- dridge, a daughter of Gen.Zachary Taylor, an increase of Tension on the life o: her first husband, Col.Bliss, U.S.A.Tihs is a second time an increase has been granted to her.My cbject in writing is ta say to you that I araw a Mexican war pension for the services renderad by my husband, Paymaster James A.Semple, US.N., which has never been increased from eight dollars per month.Mrs Dan- dridge and myself stand towards a Pres1- dent of the United States in the same position, my father being John Tyler, of Virginia.I ask that you obtain for me the same increase of pension that Mrs.Dandridge receives, for at all points we .stand alike, save that she has married again, and that I represent four Presidents.James Monroe, William Henry Harrison, John Tyler, and Benjamin Harrison were cousins through the Armisteads and Ty- lers of Virginia.My necessity must plead with you for me, inasmuch as the eight dollars pension from the Mexican war is the only income whatever I have, and this amount is inadequate for my necessities.I, therefore, most respectfully ask your intercession in my behalf.I will close my letter with this fact : That after the death of my mother, September, 1842, upon the

to face with the question as to lue source of Mis .authority tor ordering tue contractors to do lune work, he anvays managed to euude it.lo ths he was as- sigted by Hnginee> Dore and Ald.Pre noveau, who wera always ready to break in av a critical point with explanations that did not explain at ali.Several tunes Ald.Ames and Gallery cornered him with thie vital question, but either Ald.Lre- toveau or Mr.Dore came to \u2018his renet end the query was always left unanswered.Phe explanation at first offered callapsed completely when the records were turned up.Mr.Monubriand readily replied wieu tue question was first put to him by Aid.Gallery and Ames that he bad received his authority from tbe sub-commitiee appointed, and had, after receiving the authority, given the written order to the contractors to go ahead with the work.The order was produced and it \u2018bore date of August 28th.The minute books showed that the sub-cominittee had not been appointed until Sept.7th, or ten days after the order was given.Ald.Prenoveau and Engineer Dore insisted that the work had been ordered by the sub-committee which mwas composed of Ald.Prenoveau, Turner and Brunet.Ald.Turner and Brunet declared that they knew notbing of the work until it was finished.This left Ald.Pre- noveau carrying the responsibility tor the job, and he did not deny, as his colleagues did, having authorized the architect to order the work.After routine business had been trans acted, Mr.Montbriand was asked to explain why he ordered the contractor to haul in the earth?Ile replied that he did so because the members of the subcommittee had authorized him to do so.Ald.Brunet picked up the bill and remarked that the city got the earth ell right, but he thought the charge was too \u2018high.A Mistake Somewhere.Ald.Gallery to Mr.Montbriand\u2014\u2018Have you that order from the sub-committee in writing?\u201d Mr, Montbriand\u2014\u201cNo, I have not.\u201d Ald.Ames\u2014 \u2018From what sub committee did you receive your orders?\u201d Mr.Monilbriand\u2014\u2018\u201cFrom the sub-com- mnittee appointed by this committee last tall.\u201d Ald.Ames looked up the documents and found that the architect\u2019s orders to the contractors was dated Aug.28th, and the sub-committee was appointed on Sept.7th.Mr.Montbriand was asked to explain this, but Engineer Dore broke in and stated that two or three sub-committees had visited the stables during the summer, and that the order had been given by them.The minute books were again referred to, but they contained no record of the appointment of any sub-committee except | that of Sept.Tth.Mr.Monthbriand held to his statement that he had been given his instructions by the committee appointed Sept.7th, but Engineer Dore was just as positive that it was from amother sub-committee at present unknown, The Leaky Explanation.Ald.Galtery\u2014\u201cDid you give the onder, © Mr.Dore?\u201d Mr.Dore\u2014\u201cNo, I did not.The order, as 1 eay, was given by a sub-committee.When I went up and found that the earth \u2018was being put there, I suggested to the chairman (Ald.Prenoveau) that it would be as well to let the committee know about it.The sub-committee was then appointed.\u201d Mr.Dore\u2019s attention was called to the fact that the work was all done before the subcommittee was appointed.He tried to explain this by saying that the sub-committee as a sub-committee had visited the stables several times, and \u2018had ordered the filling in.\u201cAld) Turner knows that as well as I do,\u201d he concluded.Ald.Turner repudiated this very quickly.He declared that the work had all been done before he knew a thing about it.When he went to the stables as a memiber of the sub-committee, he ordered the hauling of the earth to be stopped.As Ald.Ames Understood It.Ald.\u2018Ames said that as he understood it the contractors had kad a couple of carts taking the earth away from ther quarry and dumping it in an excavation some distance away.It was suggested -t Don\u2019t kill the goose that lays the golden egg.Your future wealth depends upon your present health.Take care of it in your own interests.ABBEY\u2019S EFFERVESCENT

levelling.\u2018lire understanding was that this man\u2019s wages were to be the only expense the committee would have to bear in the matter.The account was for 3,073 loads.This wouid keep ten carts going steadily for three weeks.He wanted to know if that number of carts had been on for that length of time.He had been up to the stables, and had been unable to find wnere anything like three thousand loads had been dumped.Ald.Prenoveau said that the contractors were taking the earth away in wheel barrows, when they were asked to dump it on the city\u2019s land, and, of course, it was more expensive to haul it by carts than by wheelbarrows.The Important Question.Ald.Gallery\u2014\u201cWe have been trying for a long time to get at the bottom of this thing, and I think it can be done if one question is answered.What I want to know is, who gave the order to the architect?\u201d | Mr.Montbriand was called upon again for this question.His auswer was as before, that he was acting under instructions of the sub-committee.Ald.Gallery wanted to know which member of the committee told him to order work.Mr.Montbriand was abou! to say that he could not remember, when Mr.Dore \"broke in with his oft-repeated attempt to explain.Ald.Turner wanted it to be clearly understood by all that the enquiry had established the fact that this work had not been ordered by the sub-committee, as had been stated.He again declared that he bad had nothing to do with it, and pointed out that Ald.Brunet refused to take any responsibility for it.This left only Ald.Prenoveau.It was suggested to appoint Ald.Preno- veau, Brunet and Turner to look into the matter and report, but it was decided that the committee as a whole should visit the stables in the near future and see for themselves.In the meantime the account stands.CANADIAN PACIFIC KLONDIKE STEAMER Polson\u2019s Will Finish One This Month For Yukon River, + Toronto, Ont., March 8 \u2014 (Special)\u2014 Operations were commenced today at the Polson\u2019s Iron Works to ship the large Can: adian Pacific Railway Company\u2019s Klondike steamer to the Pacific coast, where she will be put together and subsequently steam up to go into

of a new clerk.There wiere several applications, but as the position belonged to an Eng- lishispeaking person, the contest narrowed down to two, Messrs, McGoldrick and J.O'Neil.On the casting vote of the chairman, Ald.Kinsella, Mr.O\u2019Neil was appointed, The following letter from Superinten- | dent Laforest is self-explanatory :\u2014 , \u201cGentlemen\u2014I beg to draw your ser- \u2018 lous attention to the fact that only $10,000 has been grented this year for distribution pipes, which item covers the thawing of £ervices, repairs to mains, services, valves, inspecting services, etc.In 1892 the expenditure under this head was $50,000, and the yearly average for the past eight years has been $32,000.Last year this item was reduced to $26,000, but I find it is impossible to do on $10,000 that which corit five times more eight years ago, when the system of distribution, which \\ncreases every year, was not eo extended | as it is at the present day.\u201cUp to the present $4,000 has been expended on work that could under no circumstances be delayed or dispensed with.I to ask for a further appropriation of $15,000 to ca ough : the current year.\u201d curry me thr Ald.Gagnon

Grand Trunk.The aggregate of the past week's freight shipments is 153,827 tons.For the corresponding week of last year the aggregate was 91,869 tons, and during the entire period from April to October the greatest tonnage for any single week \u2018was 69,991 tons.Rate-cutting is supposed to be responsible for the present tremendous shipments, it being claimed that rates are being made practically

Gate of the Golden North.Yesterday, when interviewed by nied ail reports sent out that gave him as authority for the statement that the next two boats from the North wili bring Such reports are ridjcifious, and only megnt to be sensational.The latest news at Skagway from.Daw- gon City is decidedly rosy.MHeporis from Rosobud Creek, off Huinker Creek, state that prospecting parties have found $9 to the pan without getting down to the bed rock.Nine Mile Creek, on Indian Creek, the pan, and Gold Creek, on the Hunzer, and Moose Tiide Creek, have both returned excellent showings of their richness.Captain Cates came down from Skagway on the steamer Danube, and with him was Mr.J.Nicholls, date of the Northwest Mounted Police Mr.Nich- olls had come straight out from Dawson.He went morth late last year by the steamer Capitalo, taking in several head of cattle for a company of which Mr.l\u2018'earon, member for Medicine Hat in the Northwest Teritoriall Legislature, is et the head.The cattle came from Mr.Fearon\u2019s ranch on Maple Creek, and Mr, Nicholls reports \u2018having sold 1,000 pounds of beef to Major Walsh for $1 per pound, and the rest sold at $1.25 per pound, netting 4 handsome profit after paying all expenses.Mr.Nicholls also.obtained interests in several good claims on the Hunker and other creeks, while in the Klondike Captain Cates brings an emphatic denial to the reports of spinal meningitis at Skag- way.Me was informed on reliable authority during his etay at that town that since September, 26 deaths had occurred from natural causes; that alone proves the \u201cplague scare\u201d false.All the dogs around Skagway are dying off from distemper, and Captain Cates reports that horses vary in price from $80 to $200 and more.From mg experience of the trail, which he states to be in excellent condition, Captain Cates said that a horse could easily haul 600 pounds all the way to Lake Bene net from the coast, after which a bigger load could be taken on.Hay varied from $35 to $100 per ton at Skagway.Speaking of the occupation of the summit of the White Pass by Inspector Strickland, of the Northwest Mounted Police, Captain Cates stated that it did mot cause much comment at Skagway.|The position is not one of the most convenient, as wood has to be hauled nine miles.Captain Cates states that Skagway is the toughest town he has ever been in.NO NEED

Vote! Mr.Moody (Republican, Massachusetts) appealed to his colleague to withdraw his objection.The cries for a vote continued.After the confusion which followed had subsided, Mr.Cannon iook the floor to open the debate on the bill.Coming to the all-absorbing item, he said that in the present critical condition of affairs, the committee had deemed it wise to appropriate this sum, placing its expenditure in the complete discretion of the President.He insisted that this appropriation must not be construed into a threat.Nothing was further from the minds of those who reported it, he said.This appropriation was to be placed in the hands of a wise and patriotic executive, to make proper preparations to maintain the national honor, nothing more.\u201cIt is not a war appropriation,\u201d said he, emphatically.\u201cI say that, in my judgment, measuring my words, it is @ peace measure.(Great applause.) The Government of the United States would mot, if it could, trench upon the rights\u201d df any\u2018nation ou earth.\u201d {Renewed applause.) Mr, Cannon was followed by almost every member of the House, all making short and patriotic speeches.Mr.Bingham, of Pennsylvania, caused the only discordant mote that was heard.While supporting the bill on general principles, he characterized the day\u2019s proceedings of the House as.akin to the methods of \u201cyellow dog journalism.\u201d He was roundly hissed by the majority of the members and the spectators in the gallery.When the question was put on the pas- tage of the bill, the whole house rose en masse in its favor, but Mr.Cannon asked for the ayes and noes.He did 50, he said, at the request of many members that every member should go on record.Every member present voted for the bill, many of them assuming the responsibility ot breaking their pairs ih order to place themselves on record, At the conclusion of the roll-call, the Speaker had his name called, an unusual proceeding, and, ant great applause, voted for the bill.When f¢ announced the vote, 311 ayes, noes, Tone, an enthusiastic demonstration occurred.The Spanish Fleet, | London, March 9\u2014A factor which must be taken into consideration in the purchase of ships, is, it is said, that any Government has the

consider itself bound by international usages in the conduct of diplomatic relations with other countries.It has distinctly laid down a rule of action which it imagined to be binding upon it, and therefore its refusal to accede to the request of Spain stultifies it in the eyes of the whole word.\u201d London Press Comment.London, March 9.\u2014The Morning Post editorially commends the adoption oË the Cannon resolution by the House of Representatives, and says: \u201cIt is an emphatic way of saying that American statesmen intend to stand by their declarations.People who talk about national honor and responsibility ought to be prepared to put their money down.\u201d The Daily News says: \u201cSpeaking generally \u2018the United States never are prepared for war.Yet it cannot be said that their diplomacy has suffered from this palpable and notorious truth.\u201cTherefore, the assertions of \u2018American statesmen {hat they are voting millions as a peace measure is hardly convincing proof.Our Washington correspondent has obtained from a member of the executive a positive assurance that the Maine disaster has nothing to do with the vote.This is a most 1m- portant declaration, looking to the fact that President McKinley will not always be able to control public opinion.America and Spain would be wise to find some hon- orabie way -out of the hopeless and discreditable deadlock.\u201d i.De rer te LIQUOR IN THE YUKON.\u2014 A Delegation from the Quebec W.C.T.U, Wants it Kept Out.Ottawa, March 9.\u2014Several of the Ministers were waited upon yesterday afternoon by a deputation of ladies representing the W.C.T.U.of the Yrovince of Quebec, with the request that the sale cf hquor be absolutely prohibited in the Yukon district.The ladies present were Mrs.Sanderson, president of the Quebec Umon; Mrs.R.W.MacLachlan, corresponding secretary; Mrs.Walker, president, and Mrs.Ure, vice president of the Montreal Central Union; Mrs.Asa Gordon, Mrs.W.Scott, Miss Mary McK.Scott, Mrs.Livingston, and Rev.Wm.Meclntosh, Ottawa.In the absence of the Premier, who was detained in the House on important business, they were received by Messrs.Sifton, Fisher and Fielding.Mrs.Sanderson said she represented 2,000 members in the Province of Quebee, who felt that the success of the Yukon depended on liquor being kept out of it.Mrs.McLachlan, Mrs.Ure and Rev.Wm.McIntosh also spoke.Mr.Sifton, in reply said that no Jiquor permits had been granted this vear, and that previous permits were for private consumption, and not for the sale of liquor.The ladies were assured by the three Ministers that the Government would do what it could to grant their wighes.CUTS TO CALIFORNIA.C.P.R.Will Wage War in the Territory of the Enemy.== 00 , Chicago, March 9.\u2014The Canadian Pacific has announced that it will take its re- tuced rates into San Francisco.It de- claves that from that city do the East it will make the following rates: St.Paul, $25; Chicago, $36.50; New York, $40.These rates are first-class, and the second-class rates will, in.each intunce, De $10 lower than the rates given above.In making {hese rates the Canadian Pacific will have to content itself with the ocean route from San Francisco t® the western terminus of its line.At the present time there is a fight on between the steamship companies and the Southern Pacific, which has pulled down the rates between San Francisco and Portland to $5 net.The Canadian Pacific las taken advantage of this, and has decided to carry.the fight into the chief points on the Pacific coast that are within its reach.MORIN\u2019S WINE Creso - Phates Recommended by Physician.For the last two years I have been using Morin\u2019s Creso-Phates Wine in my surgery.for troubles of the

Minister of Agriculture, is a practical farmer, fully alive to the agricultural needs of the community.Though he is not so much in evidence on the public platform as some of his colleagues, the bulletins that are being steadily issued from the department and the kindly notices that are being given to him by the Opposition press, are practical tewtimonies to his faithful work.He has been giving his best attention to perfecting the cold storage system between Canada and Great Britain, This means several thousands of dollars for the farmers.The Hon.Mr.Fisher is a source of strength to the Government in his quiet and steady attention to the general public welfare,\u201d - - ra FIRST BAPTIST S.S.ANNIVERSARY The annual festival of the First Bar tiet Church Sunday School which was held on Friday evening last, was quite as successful as these events usually are.An audience numbering close upon five hundred, assem= bled at eight o'clock to listen to recitas tions, musical selections, etc, by members of the School, and the audience was also greatly interested in a conjuring performance given by Mr.T.R.Lanskoil, who although an amateur, performs some very clever tricks.His tricks comprise mul- tiplving billiard balls, disappearing coins, passing of a dice through the superintendent\u2019s hat, making & large tray of flowers out of nothing, and several other equally apparently impossible feats, It is hardly necessary to add that the entertainment was much appreciated by the large audience present.Spe \u2014 LAKE SUPERIOR\u2019S PASSENGERS The Beaver Line R.M.8.Lake Superior

by March 14th.New York, March 9.\u2014A meeting of the Joint Tratlic Passenger Committee of the Trunk Lines Association wus held yesterday at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel.L'here were present about fifty unembers of the association, in addition to representatives of the Southern and New lngland associations.L.P.Farmer, president of the Trunk Lines Association, occupied the chair.The principal business was the hearing of the report of Messrs.Roberts, of the trie, and Daniels, of the New York Central, who went to Montreal on February 24, to discuss with the Canadian Pacific oificilas the disturbances that have brought about a general reduction in rates to the Pacitie coast and other western points.Messrs, Roberts and Daniel reported as follows: ?After a conference with the Canadian Pacific we suggest and urge that, on March 14, all lines restore the rates and tariffs in effect prior to present disturbances, and that all lines that are paying commissions on the traffic, return on March 14 to the normal agreed commissions in effect prior to these disturbances.This would require the cancellation of tariffs recently issued by the western lines, New England lines, the Canadian Pacific, the Grand Trunk lines, the trans-Atlantic steamship and other lines both east and west bound and foreign as well as domestic, and the restoration of all fares to regularly ugreed and authorized tariffs recognized by lines in interest as properly in effect prior to these disturbances and that a conference of lines interested be held at New York not later than March 17, for the purpose of general discussion.\u201d This proposition they also submitted to General Manager Reeve und President Hays, of the Grand Trunk system, at a Jeter conference, and the conclusion was reached that an adjustment of differences \u2018was probable if all parties could be brought together.Messrs.E.A.Ford, of the Pennsylvania east of Pittsburg; D.B.Martin, of the Baltimore & Ohio; A.S.Hansans, of the Boston & Albany, and H.T.Whett, of the Southern Rnilway, were appointed a committee to discuss the report with the representatives of the Canadian Pacific and Grand Trunk.VESSEL MOVEMENTS Allaus Steamship

Herald's Sporting Editor in Waterloo, Ont.SIXTY-FIVE IN TRAINING.This Season's Queen's Platers in Splendid Condition.RACQUET TOURNAMENT TOMORROW.The Capitals Won the Intermediate Hockey Championship\u2014 Other Sport.The largest stable of thoroughbred horses in training in America is in Canada.Mr.Joseph Seagram, of Waterloo, Ont, enjoys the honor of owning this immense string.Besides the sixty-five horses that are now in active training, he has just that many more, bringing the totai up to 130 animals.A ramble through the stables that form the home for such a large number of magnificent horses could not but be enjoyable, and I eagerly accepted an invitation to do so last Saturday afternoon.it was only a matter of two or three hours, but it was worth going from here to Waterloo snd return to see the thoroughbreds in their home.A drive behind a spanking pair, that go very well in harness, from Berlin, where the train left me, to Waterloo, and on through this town to the farm, a anile beyond, removed all evil effects of a close, warm smoker.The farm is delightfully situated, and commands a splendid view of Waterloo.I could imagine how pretty the district would look in its summer dress, but on Saturday the landscape only appeared in blotches where Mother Earth bad poked her head through the white mantle that has tucked in the hills and valleys for some months.The horses pulled up in the midst of several buildings.They were stables, and there were any number of them.Just as we arrived, Jerry Johnston, second trainer, was leading a\u201dhtring of a dozen or md.e horses to a field about half a mile away, where the animals in training are exercised every day except Sunday.They are given light work over a half-mile track of suow.lhe string I saw exercising was composed of likely-looking youngsters, who had apparently wintered very wetland were prepared for a good season.It was the last batch to be exercised on Saturday, and when we returned to the stables every s.all was full, so all the animals were there for inspection.Of course, the platers were the objects of the greatest interest.Mr.Seagram bas won the Queen\u2019s Plate time after time, and appears to have another cinch on it this year.His entries are :- Bonino, four years old, who ran second last year to Ferdinand, She is looking as fit as a fiddle, and has a good way of going in exercising.The Tar is a four-year-old gelding, who has never gone to the post, so he will make his first appearance in this year\u2019s plate.He is a fine, big, brown horse, and looks every inch a race horse.Delmore will also go after the Queen's Plate.He is a big, bay, four-year-old, and looks like a goer all over.Sir Donnicks is a three-year-old by Sar- gossa, out of Bon Bon, who won the Montreal Derby in \u201991.Donnicks is a vromising youngster, who should give a very good account of himself, Those are all the platers that Mr.Seagram is handling this season.If one of them does not land the blue ribbon of the Ontario turf, it will be because one of the other candidates possesses speed yet un- thought of.It would take columns to describe accurately a trip of inspection around the elables, so I will have to confine myself to a \u2018bare mention of some of the horses.Mr.Seagram has an unprecedented number of two-year-olds.A number of these wete purchased in New York last fall.They have wintered well, and there is nat a sick horse in the stables.Following is a list of these two-year-olds, with their description and breeding :\u2014 Wreath, gr f, K.Tlelrsli pneta bre, s

undoubtedly come to the front.In some of the stalls were found horses that have throughout eight or ten years of their lives won fame for themselves and fortune for their owners.Among them I saw Martyrdom, a very fine animal; Shamrock, in foal to Sar- ossa, and who was owned by Tom Love, of Montreal; Victorious, one of the finest horses Canada ever owned.He has retired from the turf, and is looking well after bis life of activity.Five little foals, who have seen the light of day since the beginning of this year, \u2018occupied, with their mothers, a row of stalls.They are out of Bonnie Vie by Morpheus, Bonino by Sargossa, Lady Killrain by Sargossa, Uproar by imi.duvenile, and Lady\u2019s Maid by Sargossa.With such blood in their veins, a plate- winner should develop from at least one of the five.Among the old horses who appear to be in splendid condition after their win- téring are: Havoc, Connoiseur, Tragedian, Morpheus, Joe Miller, Kate Hardcastle, Longtaw or Timothy, Delmore, Bonino, The Tar, Hafl- ing, Xalvelero, My Valentine, Farthing, Stonemason, Romanca, Golden Badge, Self Binder, Abbotsford, Ullalong, and Sir Donnicks.The perfect cleanliness and sweet smell of the large stables were noticeable.Everything was in its place, and everything indicated a splendid discipline.The race horses necessitate a staff of thirty- five men and boys, while the brood mares and other horses have another staff of attendants to look after them.Charles Boyle is head trainer and Jerry Johnston, who has been with Mr.Seagram tor eleven years, is next in command.Both gentlemen know their business perfectly, and .in their hands the yellow and black should catch the judges\u2019 eye first in many a race this season.Of the sixty- five horses in training, ten will be weeded out, and the remaining fifty-five will move to the Newmarket track, near Toronto, the first week in April.There the horses will be given thir first fast work for the season.After the farm had been reluctantly left behind, I enjoyed a long chat with Mr, Seagram.He thinks the Canadian cireuit should be very successful, and it should prove to be more so every season.He \"will have a numiber of horses here for Montreal\u2019s two weeks\u2019 meet in July.Mr.Seagram has a number of engagements on the metropolitan tracks.He will go after the Suburban, which he all but landed last vear with Havoc.This grand horse will \u2018have to carry fifteen more pounds this season.Last summer, with 102 pounds wp, he all but beat out Ben Brush, who won the Suburban by a nose.Rod.Random.BASEBALL.THE EASTERN LEAGUE.The Baseball Magnates of the Union League Meet Today.New York, March 8.\u2014That thriving organization, the Eastern League of Profes- sonal Baseball Clubs, will hold at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, its annual spring schedule meeting to-morrow morning.Ever since the big league magnates deserted this city for other points on the twelve club circuit, the Eastern has continued to hold its meetings here regularly, although it has no representative club in (Greater New York.This minor league, which is the best of its kind under the protection of the national agreement, has gradually been developed into a prosperous orgimization.The money-making towns last year were Buffalo, Toronto, Syracuse, and Providence, while Montreal, the new member, is expected to be profitable.Springfield will be managed by Lush, formerly of the Washingtons, who succeeds Tom Burns now with Chicago.The material in hand there is of the best, the star of the team being Big Dan Brouthers, President Pow- crs, who has been in Florida, has drafted a schedule of games, which he believes, will prove satlsfactory to all of the clubs.HOCKEY.A HARDWARE MATOH.On Monday evening, in the Crystal Rink, a hockey match was played between teams from the Montreal Rolling Milis Company and Caverhill, Learmont & Caverhill, Lear- mont & Co., which resulted in a win for the Rolling Mill team by a score of one goal to nothing.The game, from start to fin:sh, was a very evenly contested one.The features of the game were the brilliant stops that C.L.& Co.\u2019s goalkeeper made and but for him the score would have been much larger.For the Rolling Mills\u2019 team flough played the most effective game.The players and officials were as follows: averhi Rolling, Mills.Learnt ao Wylie.Goal.Bremner

unlucky night for the Victorias, and a lucky one for the Capitals when the whistle blew last evening to start the final match for the intermediate championship of the Canadian League.The Vies had a hard time getting their team together in Montreal, and when the train finally pulled out two oË the best men were missing as they did not turn up in time to catch the train.Amongst the friends that accompanied the team two players were pressed into sev- vice and a patched up team took the ice against the invincible Capitals who were in full strength.wet and the Caps scored almost when they liked as the new men on the Vics team without proctice.At the end the score was something like 15 to 1 in favor of the Capitals.JUBILEE AND STANDARDS.There was @ friendly game of hockey played on Monday night, from 10 to 11 p.m., between the Jubilee and Standard hockey teams.After a hard struggle the Jubilee team defeated the Standards by a score of 4 to 0.The Jubilee team linad up as follows: Goal,

Commences in Montreal Tomorrow Afternoon, Mr.Shaw, Boston, and Mr.Paton, New York, Among the Entries.Out of respect for the late Harry Ab bott, who was a member of the Montreal Racquet Club, the annual contest for the amateur championship of Canada has been postponed until to-morrow.It was scheduled to begin to-day.There are six entries among them Mr.T.A.Shaw, jr., of Boston, who met Mr.Rolland, of Montreal, in the final for the championship of America in Boston a couple of weeks ago.Mr.Shaw and Mr.Rolland will undoubtedly meet again this wéek, and as the score in Boston was so very close, a great deal of interest will attach to the meeting.Mr.M.8.Paton, an expert amateur from the States, has also entered, and, with Mr.Shaw, promises to give the Canadians all they can do to keep the championship of their own country within its borders.The first draw is as follows :\u2014 Mr.Rolland vs.Mr.A.O.McTier, both of Montreal, two o\u2019clock, Thursday.Mr.Shaw, Boston, vs.Mr.W.R.Mu- ler, Montreal, three o\u2019clock, Thursday.Mr.F.E.Meredith, Montreal, a bye.He will play the winner of the Rolland McTier match at four o\u2019clock Thursday.Mr.M.S.Paton, New York, a bye.He will play the winners of the Shaw\u2014 Miller match on Friday.This will leave but two in the contest, so the finals will be played on Friday afternoon, ROWING and SAILING.AMILIUS JARVIS\" REPORT, Its Many Points of Interest Are Fully Explained.The Effect of His Mission on American Yachting Cannot be Foretold.The complete report of Mr.Aemilius Jarvis, on, his mission to England, which was published in last evening's Herald, and only in The Herald, was read witih interest by the local yachtemen.In reference to the report, Mr.W, Q.Phillips, of Toronto, writes the Mail and Empire as follows: \u2014 The report of Mr.Aemilius Jarvis brings up some points of interest in view of the desultory but chronic discussion of measurement rules on this side of the Atlantic, particularly in the United States.As special representative of the North American Yacht Racing Union, Mr.Jarvis asked for a definite opinion from the British Yacht Racing Association as to the effect of their present rating rule, and he received a definite and decided answer.Th rule is reported to be working satisfactorily and discouraging boats of smail displacement, coupled with extreme dimensions.Further than this, Mr.Jarvis cites examples of the successful British craft in last weason\u2019s racing, Bona and Aurora, in the largest dlass, together with Penitent and Morning Star in the 52-foot class.All of these are full-bodied vessels, In the smaller classes the first prizes were evenly distributed among several craft in each dlass, indicating close competition.The winning boats are by different designers and vary from exceedingly hollow to full sections.This simply means that the rule gives a designer and also an owner a reasonable choice of type.The craft of hollow section is not penalized to the prohibitory point, wikile there is an even chance of winning with a good boat of fair dimensions and full section.The report refers to various tracings\u2014 fifteen in all\u2014given Mr.Jarvis by the several designers on whom he \u2018called.These tracings show the midship s>ctions ot boats now building for the coming The ice was heavy and were not able to stand so much hard work for the event, season, and, excepting two or three in the aumaller classes, wil may fairly be described as decidediy full bodied.What is inore, the wsecrions are ccumpact, the present Tule operating against xcessive uraft.A letter from Mr.G.L.Watson to Mr.Jarvis suggests that the rule bears a little too heavily in this direction.However that may be, it is clearly evident that the lu=lng British designerÿ ang now producing full-bodied boats, and the weight of their influence thrown in this | direction will probably bave a lasting, decisive, practical effect than any w«i- perimental alteration of the measurement rule.This development is decidedly gratifying.For years past the fin-keel \u2018bogey hag been a veritable Ylying Dutchumam to the racing yachtsman.The type has enjoyed an exaggerated reputation, both for speed and unseaworthiness.It has scared off a good many yachtgmen who would otherwise have but, Lut who ; were led to believe that the choice lay between a racing machine or a cruising tub, and were prepared \u2018to invest in neither.A few successful boats of a | dairly wholesome type will go a long way to dispel this illusion.On behalf of the British Yacht Racing Arsociation, the hope is expressed that the American clubs will adopt some rule similar to the British rule.In a letter to Mr.Jarvis there is a suggestion from Mr.R.E.Froude that the American rule might be as foflows:\u2014L.x B.x 75 G,, or, in other words, the British rule without the factor of sail area.Mr.Froude points out that this would tend to produce the popular kind of craft in Amer- | ica, with large cross sections and good power on the length.The sail area would of dourse be unlimited.Undoubtediy there are many American yachtsmen who view with disfavor the present tax on sail, although it is applied more as a measurement of sail carrying power than as a restriction on liberal rigs.However, until Mr.Jarvis\u2019 report has been favorably considered hy the North American Yacht Racing Union it is premature to discuss the probable effect of his mission on American yachting.JOINING THE RACING UNION.New York, March 9.\u2014Mr.F.B.Jones, secretary of the North American

they are too bullish.For + À years past, Montreal \u2018has been on the long ; side of wheat, and mililons of dollars have been dropped as the result.Of late it is true, they have made money, but look at the way a serious break catches them.Do you remember the period of low prices in wheat?It was the same then.Montreal bought and bought and wheat fell and fell.Every once and awhile we would hear hte remark: \u2018Well, wheat is surely at the bottom now.\u201d But it fooled us.That was the time when there seemed to be no bottom lo wheat and prices went to a point that at the present time seems almost unreal.Of course when prices did go up, the local people were right in it and Chicago had to return a lot of money that was lost on the break.\u201cBut take the stock market and we won\u2019t go any further back than the Maine incident.We have lost oppportunities to make fortunes, and all because the advice street waa ignored.Being right at the seat of action the people there are lbet- ter able to judge the market than we are, and when the advice came to \u2018sell and get out,\u201d we should have followed it.The Maine explosion was going to cause trouble in the market and they saw, too, that the thing was not going to blow over in a hurry.As 1 say, the tip was to sell the market right along and the few that took 1t have made money.\u201cOf course, you may say that it is easy enough for me to talk now after the thing is practically all over, but my point is to show that the New York people knew what they were talking about when they told us to sell.\u201d BATTLE OF MARKETS.Modern Warfare Starts on the Stock Exchanges.The head of a leading Stock Exchange house says :\u2014\u201cModern warfare staris ftivst with a battle in the markets of the countries involved.That battle is going on im the markets of America and Spain to-day.The leading financial interests are taking such measures to protect themselves as may be necessary, and this is causing a shifting of loans and accounts in all diree- tions.The Cuban struggle is only one incident in the European markets.The advance of Russia is making London more sensitive than it would otherwise be to the strained relations between Spain and America.Russia cannot make any hostile movement without drawing into the conflict nearly every nation in Xurope.When, therefore, Spain gets into battle it involves the situation still move because ot the assistance she may get for one reason and another from other mations.Government securities should move more than they do before the situation really becomes alarming.\u201d MONTREAL GRAIN.Market Fairly Active and Steady\u2014 Foreign Demand for Flour.| [Nu There was nothing very startling in the Messages from Wail street to-day.\u2018I'he despatches to Mr.C.D.Monk said :\u2014 London bought since the opening about 10,000 shares of stock, and i 1 to sell St.Paul.\u2019 19 now disposed \u201cTraders are still bearish, A special from London said : \u2018There Was no excitement here.The markets are | frm, with the tendency upward.untington says this morming : [ have not believed at any time that there would be war with Spa tee any likelihood eus and 1 do not There is a fair amount of life to the local grain market, and prices hold quite steady.| Sales of No.2 white oats for export bave been made on the basis of about 34c amd 354c is the idea for May delivery afloat.Peas hold just about the same.The feei- ing is steady, and prices hold at 67c to ! 674c afloat May., In wheat there is no important change.: Ontario red is quoted along the line on the | basis of 86c, and white at 84c to 85e, while - at Fort William $1 has been bid for No, 1 hard Manitoba, May delivery.À betier export enquiry is responsible | for a somewhat improved feeling in the { flour market, but, so far, business has not \u2018 shown any substantial improvement.In ra .;

Very Little Life, MANY REPORTS ON CROPS, Gossip of the Street and the Board of Trade, There wag not much vim to the wheat market to-day, and prices during the morning moved very tamely.The news of the day ran principally to crop reports.The Missouri State report made the winter wheat condition 38 to 68, and the area 24 per cent.less than last year, because of the drought in the fall.The Michigan report said that wheat throughout the State has been well covered with snow during the last month, and has not been injured.This year\u2019s acreage is estimated at 1,600,- 000 acres.In Liverpool the first cable quoted wheat 3 higher and corn 3 higher.May wheat in Chicago this morning opened at $1.053, but a little later on went down to $1.04%, and then to $1.04.At 12.30 it was quoted at $1.04}.July opened # better than yesterday, but failed to hold, and from 91% it went to 903.At 12.30 ot was quoted at 901 to 90%.FLOUR FOR EXPORTS.There seems to be an improved demand for Canadian flour for export, and although n\u201d new sales of Manitoba have been reported there was a sale of 2,000 sacks of Ontario.The flour will go out via New York and Boston.MANITOBA WHEAT $1.10, That is the Price for No, 1 Hard at North Bay.~ May Wheat Changes Hands at $1.00 Fort William.There is no great activity in the Manitoba wheat market at present, but prices are pretty well maintained all round.At North Bay No.1 hard Manitoba is quoted at $1.09 to $1.10, and the idea for the same grade afloat Fort William in May is $1.Speaking of the situation in Manitoba, the Winnipeg Commercial says :\u2014\u2018\u201c\u2019The local market has been dull.There was some buying of May wheat at $1, Fort William.Cash wheat ranged from 97c to 99c during the week.Yesterday 97}c was quoted for cash No.1 hard, and $1 for May delivery, Fort William.In Manitoba country markets prices to farmers declined to about 82c at the opening of the week, but advanced to 86c, and were quoted yesterday at 84c to 85¢c for No.1 hard to farmers.In the Winnipeg market 90c was paid to farmers, but yesterday the price was dropped to 88e for No.1 hard.Very little wheat is being delivered in the country, farmers\u2019 deliveries in Winnipeg being larger than at most country points.Receipts of wheat at Fort William elevators last week were 17,931 bushels, and shipments 35,921 bushels.In store, Fort

sellers are apart in their ideas as to prices.A bid of Sc was refused for finest Ontarios, and the nomi- tal range is 8 Ontarias, 72c Quebec.The butter market maintains its previously moted firmness, and sales of finest creamery have been made at 20c.In a local way an advance over that quotation has been obtained.The demand for dairy goods is very fair, and prices hold steady at 17e for western in tubs, and 16c for rolls, A fair trade is being done in potatoes at present, and the tone is firm, as supplies are not large.In car lots bags are quoted at 80c, and 70c to 75e is the range for small quantities.There was no further change in the egg market to-day, prices being about steady at the recent decline.The demand for small lots was good, and a fair trade was done at 16c to 17c per

over the price of the May option in New York.Other sales in New York yesterday were reported as follows: \u2014\u201cFour loads ungraded winter and spring, p.t., and 10 loads No.2 red, reported vari ously for South Africa and the United | Kingdom, also from here, but nothing from the outports to the close of \u2019Change, as this market, thanks to the railroads and the abolition of the old

farm reserves of wheat, including all grades, on March lst, approximated 155,000,000 bushels, or 26.8 per cent.of last year\u2019s production.On the corresponding date in 1897 there were held in the same position 142,000,000 bushels; 1896, 157,000,- 000 bushels; in 1895, 165,000,000 bushels, and in 1894, 142,000,000 bushels.The six principal winter wheat States have a reserve of 50,000,000 bushels, as tgainst 45,000,000 bushels last year, and in the Dakotas and Minnesota it is 40,- 000,000 bushels, as contrasted with 44,- 000,000 bushels one year ago.The following figures are a resonable presentation of the situation :\u2014 Bushels.Farm reserve, March 1, 1898.155,000,000 Commercial visible, say.68,000,600 Total reserve March 1.223,000,000 Requirements for bread, four A 100,000,000 Requirements for seeding spring wheat.a.+.+.22,000,000 ses eas \u201coe Total home requirements.122,000,000 This leaves practically 100,000,000 bushels with which to meet the export requirements for four months, and for domestic reserves at the end of next June.To carry the calculation a little further : Exports from January lst to March 4th have equalled 36,000,000 bushels, or a weekly average of 4,000,000 bushels.Should the same average be maintained for the remaining seventeen weeks of the crop year, there would be a surplus in the neighborhood of 32,000,000 bushels to be carried over, as against 60,000,000 bushels last year.CATTLE FIRMER.Light Offerings in Toronto and Prices Are Better.Toronto, March 8.\u2014The offerings were lighter at the Toronto cattle markets

Cable Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, shows by comparison as follows : KLONDIKE TRADE BRISK OUT WEST.\u201cTimes are Good,\u201d Writes a Vancouver Man, HUNDREDS OF BUYERS ar Âre Arriving Daily in Victoria and Vancouver, \u201cTimes are good in Vancouver,\u201d writes à man in that city.\u2018\u2019l'his can \u2018be chrou- icled without fear of contrauiclixsn.Jhey were never better.Vancouver may be able to do a bigger business, but she has ber hands full now.Klondike stores are open night and day, and big statis of men are employed to handle ine steady and ever-increasing line of customers.\u201cThere must be from 250 to 3v0 buyers arriving daily in Vancouver and Victoria.lhis nunyber may sound extravagant Lo some, but the Canadian Pacific report that they are handling themselves over 130 Klondikers daily, and the number, there fore, cannot be far out.Five steamers have left here for the north in two days, so that the strain is being constantly relieved as they keep pouring in.An at tempt was made by the Commercial correspondent to get a consensus of opinion.from the busy merchants regarding the times, present and future, but they are ail too busy.All they could be induced to say when the question was asked : How is business?was the very brief, but nevertheless satisfactory, reply, \u201cOh, business fs good, splendid.Call again, old man, very busy now.\u2019 \u201cIhe demand for portable evaporated fruits and vegetables is immense, and 1t seeems a trouble to find houses to supply it.Any man who can provide condensed feed for horse, dog or man has a Kiondike of his own.\u201d Winnipeg\u2019s Share.Speaking of Winnipeg\u2019s share of the Klondike trade, the Commercial of that city says : \u201cWinnipeg is not getting any great benefit from the Klondike rush.A little outfitting is being done here, but it is hardly noticed in the general volume of trade.Winnipeg jobbers in some lines, however, are filling orders through coast houses for Klondike supplies, so that directly and indirectly the Klondike business will form a feature in the trade of the city.The Klondike fever is not absorbing attention entirely from more practical and staple investments.Manitoba lands, for instance, continue to improve in demand.The sales of the Canadian Pacific Railway land department were threefold greater during last month than for February of last year, and other reports are equally hopeful.It is not to the Klondike rush that we look for business, but to the development of the greater Klondike right at home in the rich lands ot the prairie region.The continued improvement, in the demand for lands for settlement is the most hopeful feature in the situation.\u201d GOLD SHIPMENTS.The Total Movement is Nearly Ten Millions of Gold.London,

gave a very interesting decision this morning regarding the duties of policemen in ordering people to move on when loitering on the street.Percy Brown, George Labelle and Chas.Campbell stood ou the sidewalk for twenty-five minutes in such a way that people had to go around them.The detectives who had been watching, arrested them.The judge did not give his decision at the time the case was finished in order to decide whether it was necessary for the officers in such a case to warn the offenders to move on.After looking up al Ithe authorities on the question, Judge Desnoyers came to the decision that a warning was not necessary and that an officer could arrest a person without giving him any warning to move on.The three offenders in this case were \u201cfined $20 each.WINDENING

Made to Get Ahead of Spain BROWNSON 13 GOING OVER Many Millions May be Spent in This Way, New York, March 9.\u2014A special to the Herald from Washington says:\u2014It is known that the authorities expect to expend $15,000,000 or $20,000,000 in purchasing ships if sweh sum can be spent judi c.ously and to the advantage of the Government, Secretary Long admitted that he has a list of vessels prepared, which Captain\u2019 Brownson will inspect, particularly, and which this Government hopes to acquire, but he declined to make it public.Not only is the Navy Department searching private ship yurds for vessels that are near completion, but foreign governments, thrqugh our diplomatic representatives accredited to them, have been approached with a view to acquiring some of the most formidable ehips that belong to or are ( \u2018being constructed for thei ies.So her forces in the Kast so rapidly that not ! 6 r elr navies.& far the negotiations have met with no satisfactory response.In fact, from information which the authorities ibavig received, apprehension has arisen that this Government may be unable to increase its tea power by the purchase of men-of-war either under construction or in the possession of the foreign powers.To Buy Warships.New York, March 9.\u2014Commander W.H.Brownson, U.S.N., saïled for South- amplon on the American Liner steamer St.Paul to-day.He said to a reporter: \u2014 \u201cl am going to England under orders direct from the Navy Department, not from the President.My mission is to prepare for the exigencies of the situation, and to see what can be had and done in case of war.I shall report by cablegram.\u201d \u201cAre you empowered to secure options on ships?\u201d \u201cl certainly am not going over for my health,\u201d the commander replied.London, March 9.\u2014The indications are that the United States Government will wot wait for the arrival here of Commander William H.Brownson in order to purchase ships.Definite offers have already been made for ships building here, with the view) of iforestallling Sipdin, which is supposed to be bargaining for the same vessels, : -~ EXPORT DUTY ON NICKEL ORES This Matter is Agitating the Peonle of Sudbury, Argument Advanced For and Against *-e Proposal.SudBury, March 9.\u2014(Special)\u2014The provincial election being over, the proposition to put an export duty on nickel is causing even greater excitement in this district this week.The majority of the peo- | ple of the district are undoubtedly in favor of the Dominion Government taking such action as will compel the refusing of the products of our nickel mines to be dome in the country.The Canadian Copper Co., is naturally exerting its influence to prevent the Government from taking any action in the matter, and is getting up a pétition against an export duty.This company says it will De necessary to close down all its mines and works here if an export duty is put on nickel ores and matte.This announcement is cousing many of the business men of Sudbury to sign the petition against their will.Those in favor of an export duty eay that the Dominion Government will take into consideration all the fasts of the case, and put the interests of the country ahead of those of any one company in deciding the matter.An export duty they say would give value to properties here that are now without any selling value.1t would also build up large refining and manufacturing interests in Canada, and give employment to many hundreds and even thousands of our own people, who are now denied emplovement m tne country that has so far reaped nearly all the benefit from the working of our nickel mines.The value of the refined: products\u2014nickel and conper\u2014of the mines in this district since they were first started has heen over $12.000.000.Then an export duty would pive Canada a mononoly of all the forms of alloys of nickel and steel, and thus enable her to produce an article for export in which no \u2018other country in the world conld suceessfu'ly comnete, One thing is certain, that the nickel mines will never he of anv benefit to the country unless mae commanies are allowed to

and dismissed the action for the balance.Mr.Lamb sought $128 for salary and e=- penses as \u201crunner\u201d of the Richelieu Hotel.The judge remarked at the outset that the amount involved was only
