Quebec City, Sept.2.\u2014As the time for adjournment approaches thé Comimssioners to the International Conference are compelled to work harder.Deputations from mercantile associations of Canada and the United States are interviewing both parties to the Conference in the mornings before the opening of the joint session, and during the evenings after adjournment.Yesterday there were delegates in Quebec from the British Columbia sealers, froin the Boston Chamber of Commerce, from the fishery interests of Gloucester, Mass., and from the lumbering industries of the United States.Ali these must present their cases before Friday at eleven a.m.The joint session did not open until two o'clock, in order to enable the American Commissioners to hear the views of the Boston Chamber of Commerce.Boston Chamber of Commerce.The Boston delegation consists of Messrs.Howes, Hall and Preston.The main subjects on their prograiume are bonding, the «xclantie shore fisheries and reciprocity.Boston\u2018s interest in bonding is practically identical with Canada\u2019s, Boston and New York being the two American seaports that profit post by the bonding arrange ments which permit the bulk of the Dominion\u2019s exports and imports to pass through these cities during the winter months.The Boston Chamber of Com: merce has already pronounced in favor of reciprocity, and the fact that the leading cities of the United States, east and west, also signified their desire for reciprocity, when asked for an opinion by the Chamber\u2019s secretary, gives additional force to the representations of the Boston delegates.Dependent for its very existence on the protectionists of the United States, the Washington Government is naturally slower to discern signs of the public desire for reciprocity than such non-partisan organizations as the Chamber of Commerce, For the last five years the Dominion and the United States have been encompassing heaven and earth for trade proselytes.Emissaries from Washington and Ottawa have been scouring the globe in search of unconquered markets and new trade channels, yet each country has continued to carry out the absurd policy of building a higher and higher wall across the breadth of a whole continent to bar out trade at its very door.As pointed out in the editorial columns of The Herald a few duya ago, the principal Canadian exports to the United States last year were coal, lumber, logs, horses, furs, hideg, lead, paper, tea, tobacco, wood, wood pulp, flax and spirits.With only three exceptions these Canadian exports come under the heading natural products.During the same year the American exports to Canada were im le- ments, books, carriages, cars, bicycles, clocks, watches, scientific instruments, builders\u2019 tools, hardware, machines, oil, furniture and an inconsequential total of live stock and farm products.In other words, the main American exports to Canada were manufactured articles.It should not cause a violent wrench to the tariff wal of either country to modify the dutfes so that natural products coull flow south unhindered and the manufactured articles demanded by the Canadian market, and practically reaching it in spite of tariff walls, could come north.This is he view taken by the Boston Chamber of Commerce and urged on the International Commissioners at Quebec.Fisheries, Fast and West.The presence of Capt.Cox from Victoria, to look after the interests of British Columbia sealers, and of Messrs.Cunningham, Sylvester and Sylvanus, from Gloucester, Mass, to represent the fishermen of the New England States, is evidence that the fishery questions are faking up @ large share of attention during the last two days of this week\u2019s debate.In fact both the Atlantic shore question and the Behring Sea dispute may be written off the conference list of problems as set- : tled, though both delegations may effect slight changes in the settlement.The British Columbia sealers wish compensation for their sealing rights to be based on an estimate of profits before the restrictions of the Paris tribunal were in posed.Their views regarding this matter have been ,expressed through their formal petition and through the statements of their delegate, Captain Cox.There is no doubt that the New England fishermen oppose an indiscriminate opening of American markets for Canadian fish.They seem willing to exchange privileges with Newfoundland, but not with Nova Scotia; and the reason is not hard to find.Last year [Nova Secolia shipped almost a million dollars worth of fish to Cuba and Porto Rico.New England fishermen have been looking forward to a monopoly of these markets, and barely had they laid their plans for more id.= extensive operations than formerly when Nova Scotia forwards a petition to the International Commissioners offering access to inshore fisheries, supplies and bait in exchange for admission to Porto Rico and Cuban markets; heuce the New England opposition to the extension of privileges to Nova Scotia.The incident at Burge Island, off the south coast of Newfoundland, was a very effective answer to the protests of fishermen in Provincetown.The assertion was made that entrance to inshore fisheries of Nova Scotia and Newfoundland was not desired by Cape Cod fishermen, and that Canada had nothing to offer in exchange for admission to the American market.Newfoundland authorities demonstrated whether anything of value could be given on their side by prohibiting a fishing fleet, whose outfit cost $50,- 000, from taking bait off Burge Island.As long as the American fishermen can get bait by simply taking it, he has mo object in sharing his market with Nova Scotia.Boundaries Discussed.It is understood that the Alaska boundary dispute was investigated yesterday and to-day.The ambiguity of the treaties between Russia and Great Britain in 1875 and Russia \u2018and the United States in 1867 affects the Alaskan boundary only from Mount St.Elias to the southern point of Prince of Wales\u2019 Island.One ambiguous clause reads as follows :\u2014\u2018W'\u2019henever the summit of the mountains, which extend in a direction parallel to the coast, from the 56th degree of north latitude to the point of intersection of the 141st degree of longitude, shall prove to be at the distance of more than ten marine leagues from the ocean, the limit between the British possessions and the line of coast which is to belong to Russia, as above mentioned, shal} be formed by a line parallel to the windings of the coast, and which shall never exceed the distance of ten marine leagues therefrom.\u201d The questions arise : What mountains are intended 8hall the line parallel to the wind- mgs of the coast be drawn along the innermost shore of the indrntaltions, or across from headland to headland?Rumor has it that the International Commission will refer this matter to a board of.experts for investigation and decision.Great ambiguity also exists regarding the designation of waters at the south-east of the boundary, uncertainty existing as to whether the boundary line should be drawn along Portland Channel or Behin Canal.As surveyors have heen over the ground in the vicinity of Hunter's Island; between Ontario and Minnesota, there should be no difficulty in ascertaining the real boundary in this region.Notes of the Conference, The ladies of the American party declare the trip up the Saguenay altogether dc- lightful.Commander Spain had charge of the Government steamer Aberdeen, and Mr.O\u2019Hara.accompanied the excursion- iets.Two members of the Ottawa Cabinet were in Quebec Wednesday, the Hon.Mr.Tarte and the Hon.Mr.Mulock.Yesterday the visitors mot actually engaged in conference proceedings went on a visit to \u2018the ruins of Quebec\u2019s little Ver- eailles, the famous Chateau Bigot.o e press men in Quebec for the confer- Ice paid a visit to the Ursuline chapel.The Hon.Mr.Dobell entertained.the commissioners to dinner Thursday night.The Garrison Club tendered a most ens joyable \u201cat home\u201d to the ladies of the American delegation, at which

Hon.F.rcha: anid shure, on.F.G.Marchand ._ The rumor that the Hon.Don.M.Dick- mson gave a hint to his clients that American lumbermen would be allowed to take logs from their limits in Ontario without sawing them in the Province appears to be withoprt foundation, His views were presented \u2018to the American commissioners, when he was in Quebec and even if the Canadian representatives had been favorably disposed towards United Staltes lumbermen, the conference cannolt annul the Ontario law, requiring the sawing of logs within the Province.Quebec, Sept.2.\u2014(Special.)\u2014To-day\u2019s session of the international commission will probably be a short one as the commissioners intend adjourning about two o\u2019clock ag most of them intend leaving for home this afternoon and evening.Sir W.Laurier goes to Arthabaskaville, and General Foster will leave for Toronto to visit the exhibition.This week\u2019s proceedings as far as can be learned from the commissioners, has been devoted to a general discusssion of the questions to be submitted and an exchange of views on the different subjects.Hon.Mr.Mulock leaves for Ottawa to-night and will remain there until Sunday wveninf when he will leave for Toronto.MR.COLQUHOUN DEAD.He Was Three Times Mayor of Cornwall and Once a Member of the Federal Parliament.Cornwall, Ont., Sept.2.\u2014(Special.) \u2014 William Colquhoun,

\u2014Colonel Henry\u2019s confession of having forged the famous document upon the authenticity of which Gen.de Boisdeffre, chief of the staff of the ¥rench army, in his impassioned appeal to the jury in the Zola trial staked his own reputation and the honor of the army, and Colonel Henry\u2019s suicide in the fortress of Mont Valerien, have caused an emotion throughout France which has not been witnessed since the fall of Sedan.\u2018Colonel Henry, a peasant\u2019s son promoted from the ranks, and imbued with all the instincts, low cunning and narrow personal animosity often characteristic of French peasants, had no conception of the enormity of his crime until overwhelmed by its detection.This brave but infatuated chief of the intelligence department of the French army embodied the whole head and front of Dreyfus\u2019 conviction, of Zola\u2019s condemnation, of Esterhazy\u2019s ac- cuittal, and of Picquant\u2019s degradation and imprisonment.Although the document which Colonel Henry forged in 1896 cannot technically have any effect on the Dreyfus trial which took place in 1894, it is nevertheless with consternation that the people are asking what sort of evidence Dreyfus could have been convicted upon if in the judgment of Colonel Henry it was eo flimsy that he thought it could not stand investigation without being propped up by official forgery.After conversing with representative Frenchmen of every class, and after mixing with the excited groups in the streets and cafes, it is evident that popular tide is at last turning in favor of a revision cf the Dreyfus trial, no matter what the consequences may be.It is significant that such newspapers as the Gaulois, the Echo de Paris and journals which are known to be in close touch with the army, now declare that the feeling of military men is out and out for revising the court-martial, and that many prominent officers insist | anaes, that it is the honor of the army itself which necessitates such revision.General de Boisdeffre, whose monstrous threat to resign with the whole general staff of the army if Zola was acquitted, has now, by his resignation admitted that he was the blind dupe of a forger.; Henri Rocheford, who still champions the validity of Dreyfus\u2019 condemnation, is authority for the statement that all the officers of the French general staff employed in Paris have applied to be relieved of their present duties, and sent back #0 their respective regiments.; The Minister of War is conscientiously subjecting all documentary evidence used in the Dreyfus and Zdla trials to expert tests to ascertain whether any more forgeries exist.There is every indication that the army and people now demanc that the prisoner on Devil\u2019s Island shail have a new and fair trial, but this cannot take place for many months.; Although firm confidence in the sincerity and good faith of the Minister of War is expressed on all sides there is much comment on the fact that ex-Colonel Pic- quart is apparently the only person in France who was not completely astounded at the news of Henry's confession and sui cide.When the news was communciated to him in his cell at La Sante prison, Pic- uart listened without manifesting the slightest surprise, and exclaimed : \u201cThe poor, unfortunate devil.What a terrible and heart-rending blow to his young wife and to his little son.\u201d _ The movement in favor of a revision of the Dreyfus case is growing stronger in the papers, which until now have been hostile to the prisoner of Devil's Island.The Matin to-day says: \u201cThe ahsence of M.Bourgeois, the Minister of Education, prevented the Ministers from coming to a decision yesterday, and another meeting of .the Council will be held to-day.\u201d General Pellieux has tendered his re signation, but it was withdrawn on the insistence of Gemeral Zurlinden.Strike at Pittsburg.Pittsburg, Pa., Sept.2\u2014Four hundred striking coal miners, under District President Dolan, marched from Monongahela City to-day to the Ivil and Cabburg mines, and forced the sixty men at work to join the strike.The purpose of the strike is to compel the payment of the Chicago scale of prices in the third pool, New Rules of Practice.The new œules of practice contain an important provision, to which the attention of lawyers is called.In future judgments by default will not be rendered in actions for price of goods sold, unless it appears from the return that the person sued has been furnished with a detailed account of his alleged purchases.$ © 606009000050

Count Moüravieff for supremacy in the Czar\u2019s counsels.The former demanded retrenchment forthwith on pain of imminent Russian bankruptcy, and the latter\u2019s vigorous policy in China had to meet with some discouragement.Hence peace\u2014 universal peace\u2014emerges in the form of an international invitation, and serves the double purpose of an inspiring propaganda and of meeting an exigent

this morning by Captain Thomson, of the Glenarm Head.On his way in he got through the Straits without seeing any ice.At the inner end of the Straits he saw a vessel lying there waiting for daylight in order to get through., She was afraid of meeting ice in the night and so took no risk.If the last vessel which had entered had reported at Father [Point where the ice *was to be found, and hat

; \u2018 A MAN SHORT.There may be some peculiar legal complications arising out of the fact that the bulk of the bills of indictment found by the grand jury at the present assizes have been found by a short jury.The practice, crystallized into an unwritten law through hundreds of years, has been that twelve grand jurors must agree in finding or rejecting a bill, and all the great authorities concur in this.It is usual to empanel and swear twenty-three jurors, although any number between twelve and twenty-three is legal.In Great Britain the invariable practice is to have the full number, and in Camada it is ad- most always done.But however many men are on the jury, twelve at least must agree in the finding, and the limiting of the number to twenty- three is to ensure that there shall not be two contradictory findings supported by twelve jurors each.Blackstone lays it down as a maxim of our criminal law that no man can be convicted of an indictable offence except \u2018by the unanimous voice of twenty-four of his equals and neighbors, that is, by twelve, at least, ot ing to the accusation, and, afterwards, by the whole petit jury of twelve mone, finding him guilty.\u201d The panel of grand jurors prepared by the sheriff for Si assize contained only seventeen names, but between men who were sick, dead, over age, or absent, there were the bare twelve available for service.When the panel was called yesterday, one of the dozen made default, so that only eleven grand jurors were sworn, and acted all day yesterday.Tn addressing them Mr.Justice Ouimet told them that seven jurors must agree in all findings.Mr.James Swail, Notre Dame de Grace, apppeared in count this morning in response to a summons of the court, and explained to His Honor that he had mot received any summons to act ag a grand ror and was unaware that he was eall- He wae quite willing to be sworn now, and act with his fellow-jurors.Mr.Justice Ouimet accepted his excuse, and said that under the cireum- stances he would mot impose a fine.[armee the grand jury, in the first place, assent- | | cnt (Complications Probable Because Only Eleven .Jurors Sat Yesterday\u2014Law Says Twelve Jurors Must Agree on Indictments.Mr.H.C.St.Pierre, Q.C., on behalf of Joseph Girard, against whom a true bill for attempt to commit murder was returned yesterday, raised the point that the bill was illegal, as it had not been found by twelve jurors.He quoted from the authorities on the subject, and leit it before the Court, not as a question on which there was doubt but one in which the practice has been established by hundreds of years\u2019 ueage.Mr.Desmarais, on the part of the Crown, contended that as the bills had been found by seven jurors, à majonity of a legal jury of twelve, they were quite regular.His Honor réserved his decision.Mr.W.B.Stephens, summoned as a petit Jumor, applied, through Mr.R.A.I.Greenshields, for exemption from serving, on the ground that he was disqualified.Mr.Stephens having sworn that he was not a British subject, was allowed .go.Mr.J.F.Dubreuil made an application to the court for the release of one of his clients named Hague, who was called to the bar.About a month ago the man Was arrested for drunkenness and was brought before the Recorder, who sentenced him to six months in jail for vag: rancy.Mr.Dubreuil argued that the com mitment was illegal, inasmuch as it was ! mot for an offence with which the man was charged.If he had been charged with vagrancy under the proper municipal by law Mr.Dubreuil contended that he should not have been condemned to more thaï two months\u2019 imprisonment, with the option of a fine, and quoted authorities in support of his contention.Mr.Desmarais argued, for the Crown; that the Recorder was justified in committing the acoused as a vagrant and in giving him six months under the Criminal Code.His Honor took the motigu en delibere.: The first case called was that of Francois Xavier

to raise a twen::et century fund of one million dollsrs for tha ztrengthening ot thè churon apartments and the propagation of missions in those 1emote sections of the varth where the Gospel has not been heard.The fcheme originated with the Methodists in England.who, under \u2018the leadersaip of Mr.Perks, M.P., a leading Methodist layman, are ceommitted to raise a fund of one million guineas before the opening of the new century.Mr.Perks says that English Methodism would have been im- measureably stronger if she had not neglected London's great masses.His proposal is to redeem the past as far as possible by devoting a large share of the million guineas to pushing the work of the church among the neglected people of the great metrorolis.Rev.Dr.Potts heard of the proposal of Mr.Perks, caught some of his enthusiasm and at once asked Can- adn Mothodism to emulate the example of the mother church and raise one million dollars.His spirit has been communicated to all the annual Conference, who have sent it on to this body with hearty endorsations.Dr.Potts says that the Methodists of Canada can and wil raise the sum asked, and if any man in Canada knows of the capabilities of the Methodyst Church in \u2018this regard Dr.Potts does.Tength of Pastoral Terms.The length of the pastoral term is another question which will provoke discussion.Previous to the last General Conference the pastoral term was limited to three years.At that session churches were permitted, under certain special conditions.to retain their pastors for five years.Uncentainty and a certain mdefin- iteness as to the time of the pastors satay \u2018thereby introduced caused a great deal \"of dissatisfaction among both laity and clergy.Recommendations have been sent up from Annual Conferences asking for a return to the system of limited terms.There are those who favor a Ilim- itation to three years, others want an unconditional term of five years, while others, and possibly the majority, split the difference and ask for a four years\u2019 term.Missions in Japan.Japan missions will occupy the atten tion of Conference for a time.The policy of the Mission Board in administering the affairs of these missions has been sharply criticised in the press and at the Annual Conferences, and several of the min- asters omployed by the board have re- bigned.Rev.Dr.Carman, the general superintendent of the church, was sent to Japan to investigate and report.Fe réport and recommendations will come before the Conference for discussion, and a spirited debate will be heard.A 84.James Methodist Church.Of supreme interest to Montreal Methodists wll be the discussion of fhe financial condition of St.James Methodist church, Montreal.The position of St.James, as a great mission church, is unique among the Methodist churches of Canada.As such, she has a claim upon the whole of Canadian Methodism, and it is believed that this claim will be recognized and endorsed by this Conference, and an official appeal made to the church to save this beautiful edifice to Methodism and Protestantism.After the reading of the minutes this afternoon, Rev.Dr.Potts gave notice that he would, at an hour fixed by the Cor- ference, introduce the following resolu- ion : \u201cThis Conference recognizes with profound gratitude to Almighty God the great and manifold blessings, temporal and spiritual, national and social, in which we, as a church, have so abundantly shared, blessings which call for thanksgiving and practical acknowledgement.\u201cWe hail with satisfaction the proposal to signalize the close of the century by raising within the Methodist Church a special fund as a thank-offering to the God of all our mercies; said fund to be applied to such conmexional objects ag the Conference may hereafter determine #- and we promise to aid to the utmost of our power in carrying forward the undem taking to a triumphant issue.\u201d Dr.Ross, General Secretary, appointed Rev.Mr.Stoole, of New Brunswick cone ference; Mr.R.W.Clarke, Bay of Quinte conference; and Mr, S.RB.Clement, of Brandon, as assistant secretarics, and Rev.Dr.Jackson, of Montreal conference, as journal secretary.The

Committees.The first of these 0 be presented was that, of Rev.Dr.Cornish, the Conference statistician, a w.in- mary of which was given in The Herald on Saturday last.The statistics, said Dr Cornish, showed progress in all departments of the work of the church, and a steady growth all along the line.\u2019 During the quadrennium the marriages in the church were 29,000, and burials 49 000), The contributions for connexional fonds during the quadrennium was $1,551,980, an increase of $164,262.For all purposes the Church contributed $9,276,986, an increase of $107,307.Decreases were noted in the contributions for circuit expenses, house rent and travelling expenses.The Iip- worth Leagues now numbered 1,947 societies, An Increase of about 100 in four years.The League contributions were $52,800.an increase of 136 was noted in Sunday schools, making a total now of 3,387, with 2,211 teachers and officerrs and 270 329 scholars.There are 3,329 churches, an Increase of 136; 19 colleges and scliools, a decrease of one, caused by the closing\u2019 of Rev.Dr.Burns\u2019 school at Hamilton.The value of church property was placed at $11,296,802; .Darsonages, $1,750,128; parson âge furnishings, 274,500; colleges, $1,379,- 237; schools, $181,700; all property, $15,- 420,934; an increase of $477,150.The total à \u20147aze debt on church propert arsonage is $2,611,000; a

and the work was being pushed with vigor.The membership in the Manitoba and Northwest Conference was 17,692, an increase of 2,486.Immigration had added very liftle to the membership, as most of the immigrants came from central Europe and were either Lutheran or Greek in church attachment.The Sunday schools now number 256, and the scholars 16,489, both showing very substantial increases.During the quadrennium forty churches were built, and the debt at the same time very largely reduced.In all departments the contributions had greatly increased, showing a revival of devotion to their ehurches on the peut of the Methodists of the west.Mx.Woodswonth closed by predicting a great future for the west and urging \u2018the church to greater efforts in carrying the Gospel to the natives, the tillars of the soil and the miners of the far western districts.he report of Rev.Dr.Briggs on the ook and publishing house was placed in the hands of the members in printed form.The summary of the work of the quadrennium showed that after the payment of all operating expenses, salaries, etc, the committee had, out of the profits of the institution, paid to the superannna- tion fund 834,000, and

andl although he has, no doubt, lost some steap and a few pounds of avoirdupois, he has the proud satisfaction of knowing that he hes earned the sincere thanks of every lover of rifle shooting in Canada.The last day of the matches was by no means behind its fellows in the matter of good weather and good shooting, and the meeabing, consequently, ended as pleasantly as it began.\u201d The homors of the day, and, also, to a large extent, of the meeting, were carried off by Toronto, two members of corps from that city.Capt.Cartwright, of the Grenadiers, and Capt.Rennie, of the Queen\u2019s Own, taking ttrat and second prizes in the Governor- General\u2019s match, while there are no less than ten Bisley men in the first fifty from whom the Bisley team will be chosen.The scores to-day were even better than on the previous day.Captain Cartwright broke the record in the Gov- arnor-General\u2019s match, making the highest possible score ever made, in She match, 160 out of a possible 105.Yast year tha prize was won by Corp.Windatt, of the Royal Grenadiers, with a score of 93, and the tenth badge was taken 89.\u2018This vear the very high score of was made for the first prie, and the last badge was taken with 97, or four points befiter than last year\u2019s top score.As to the Bis- lay team, the {op man last year scored 460 and the fiftioth man 437, while this vear the top score is 491, or thirty-one roints better than last year, and the fiftieth man made 46% or nine points more lan last year\u2019s best score.¢ There us quite a good attendance of grectators te-day, and great interest ras token in the Governor-General\u2019s match, which is the most attractive match of the meeting, not only on account of the give of the prizes, but because it determines the order in which the team for Tisley next year shall be chosen.At fie conclusion of the match the \u2018three 1a0ney prizes and seven badges were pre- ented to the winners by Major-General 1Tutton, who made a few pleasant remarks to each prize-winner as he stepped f-rward on his name being called out.The General also read the following tele- cram, which he was just sending to His Fxcellency the Governor-General : Rifle Range, Rockliffe, September 1, 1897.Ilis Excellency the Larl of Aberdeen, New Richmond, Que.have jusb Deon L Excellency\u2019s prizes have just be vob Captain x A.Cartwright, 10th loyal Grenadiers, with 100 points;

Colonel Lorne Campbell, commandant of Bisley Common; and everyone else in command, had gone out of their way to be agreeable to the Canadian volunteers.Asked for an expression of opinion on the shooting \u2018of the team, Lt.-Col.Cooke said : \u201cThe Canadian team shot better than on any previous year.As a matter of fact, they won £123 in the open matches in excess of last year\u2019s results, and this is the only year in which we had five men in the last stage of the Queen\u2019s.When you come to consider that 1,800 men entered the first standing competition and at the last stage they were reduced to 100, and in spite of the fact that our propontion was jonly one, we had five, I think the result was most atifying for the Canadian team.We had first and second \u2018place in the All- comers\u2019 Aggregate, a tie for the second place in the Grand Aggregate, the first man only being three points ahead.We won the Colonial Aggregate, tied for first place in the Pritice of Wales, and won the Long Distance Aggregate, while Lieut.Gilchrist made 49 out of 50 in 100 yards, which is the biggest score ever made in England or anywhere {else, and Lieut.Roes made 34 at 200 yards standing and won the Gregory prize.That score has only beer excelled once before on Bisley Common, which has been established since 1800.In a great many other matches we tied for first place, as in the Daily Telegraph and The Centaur.Sergt.Broad- hurst, of the Royal Scots, wis counsider- ed by all of us as having made the best shooting at Bisley this year.\u201d The scene at Bisley was one which impressed itself on Lt.-Col.Cooke\u2019s }mind.In the first stage of \u201cThe Queen\u2019s,\u201d when 1,800 competitors from all over the Empire are gathered together, is presented a picture which reminds one of the vastness of the Empire.The Canadian headquarters at Bisley, Col.Cooke says, are one of the sights, and everyone who visits them is delighted.During the shooting all the Canadian Ministers who were in Britain visited the building\u2014Hon.Messrs.Blair, Fisher, \u2018Mulock, Dobell and Fitzpatrick.The Prince of Wales was much interested in the team.and in the members of the Prince of Wales\u2019 Fusiliers on it.Col.Cooke says :\u2014\u201cThe Prince of Wales was kind enough to send for me at the Government House, Aldershot, and His Royal Highness conversed in the most pleasant manner for a quarter of an hour.He was particularly interested in the Prince of Wales Fusiliers regiment, and in Canadian aaffirs generally.His Royal Highness also presented the Duke of Cambridge, who is a plain old soldier.[ also met the Duchess of Connaught, who was greatly interested in the Canadian Rifle team, as Her Royal Highness had already presented prizes to the team.The Prince has consented to become Hon- orary-Colonel of our regiment, and His Royal Highness will be gazetted as such as soon as the required formalities have been gone through with at Ottawa.The Duke of Connaught alse called at- the Canadian building, and after visiting every department, expressed the pleasure he felt in partaking of Canadian hospitality on Canadian soil.TI reminded the Duke that perhaps it was not Canadian soil, but he pointed to the floor, and when I had assured him that it was in reality Canadian wood, His Roval Highness said, \u2018that is good enough for me.\u201d Lord Strathcona, of course, was most kind to the team, and did all in his power to make their reception a success.He gave a eur for competition.which was won by Lieut.Ross, and Sergt.Broad- hurst won a cup presented hy the Canadian Club.Major-General Herbert also showed his interest in the team.In conversation with Col.Cooke, he highly pra.:od Major-General Hutton, the new gener officer commanding the Canadian militia, \u2018 \u2014 ti watt taitt RIFLE MATCH OFF.The Cry of Unsafe Ranges Knocks Out the Provincial Shoot for This Year.Major Blaïklock, secretary of the P.Q.R.A., has received word from Ottawa that the matches which were to have been shot off at Cote St.Luc next Monday and Tuesday would have to be cancelled.This means practically that there will be to P.Q.A.matches this year.This action on tthe part of the Government wag caused by the old cry of unsafe ranges.FELL TWO STOREYS Henry Robitaille, 1908 Notre Dame Street, Fractures His Right Hip bone.Henry Robitaille, of 1903 Notre Dame street, fractured his right hip bone by à fall from the second storey window of his residence Wednesday night.He was taken to the General Hospital.COULD NOT TURN IN BED!

\u201cAnd what do you estimate the output of the seuson at?\u201d ; \u201cAll the gravel taken out last winter has not yet been washed out, but I should say that the gold taken out for the season will not be less than $10,000,000 and may be as high as $15,000,000.(There has been, a scarcity of water for washing up.\u2019 \u201cWhat of the stories about the Government officials?\u201d \u201cI can only say, as far as I know, and 1 have met all of them, that they are perfect gentlemen.Some of the charges preferred against them are simply ridiculous.I have never seen anthing wrong, and I don't believe there is anything wrong.I have done business withh all of them.Gold Commissioner Fawcett is certainly a busy man, and has got more to do than he can well attend to.I saw a statement that he opened his office at ten o'clock, took two hours to luncheon, and closed at 4 p.m.Such a thing may have happened, but my experience has been that Mr.Fawcett only took half an hour at noon, in addition to working early and late.The men who are making the charges against the Government officials would not be an acquisition to any community.They are dissatisfied men, who have not got energy to strike out for themselves.\u201d \u201cls there any fear of starvation next winter ?\u201d \u201cI don\u2019t see how that could happen.If the boats fail to bring sufficient provisions by the St.Michael\u2019s route, then enough could be shipped over the passes in a month to feed the whole of Dawson Ciay.\u201d \u201cHow is the Dyea railway progressing?\u201clt is going ahead Mist, and next season will see it reach Lake Bennett.Once this hag been accomplished, Dawson City can be reached from Vancouver in one week.\u201d Mr.&nderson goes to England on business connected with his company.E.MARIN\u2019S BODY FOUND It Was in the Quarry at Mile End\u2014He Had Been Missing Since August | 27th.The body of Earnest Marin was found in the quarry atk St.Louis, Mile End, We nesday, afternéon.Manin bad been missing from his home since August 27.An inquest will be held at the morgue to-mor- row.$ PORTLAND CEMENT, DRAIN PIPES, Mortar Stains, Burning and Lubricatin Oils, Fire Brick, Clay, etc.Plaster Building Paper, Whitening, Parrow Ladders, Shovels, , everything for ho - builder at closest prices.ALEX.BREMNER, 50 BLEURY.THE HUGHAN 5x\" CO, Manufacturers of Hand-made Opaque Shade Cloth, Plain Dado, Laced and Fringed Window Shades.120 and 122 William St, Montreal, Can.PRICE LISTS AND COLOR BOOKS ON APPLICATION.Telephone 2771.P.O.Box 549, FOOD FOR THE SIGK \u2014AT THE\u2014 DIET DISPENSARY, 97 OSBORNE STREET ICHELIEU a The Prince of Table Waters.PURE, SPARKLING, REFRESHING.For sale at tne Clubs, Hotels, Reatauran\u2019y and all first-class groceries.;

i Foop is the fuel that feeds the fires of life.Digestion is the process that turns the fuel into energy.Few possess perfect digestion.If your digestion is imperfect, if you cannot eat what you like without discomfort, if you cannot eat when you ought to eat, the time has come when you should take Dr.Ward's Blood and Nerve Pills.Hunger is the best Sauce.Take these Pills and get ungry, You may eat what you want if yo take Dr.Ward's Pills, y you WHAT THEIR MERITS ARE: My system was entirely rejuvenated b the use of Dr.Ward's Blood and Nerve Pilly, and I consider them a marvellous strength and nerve builder for dyspepsia.I was so sick and miserable that I seemed to have no life or energy left in me, I suffered so at times that thought death would be better for me.I had tried Doctors and different kinds of medicines, but all failed to do me any good.I am in every way now a well woman, and have been for months.Before using these Pills I was so sick that I could not keep anything in my stomach.I! was under the opinion that dyspepsia could not be cured, biit now I am satisfied it can be cured, for I am able to eat like any healthy woman and feel better in every way.They have built me up also,\u2014I now weigh several pounds more than I ever did before.In conclusion, I wouldagdvise every woman afflicted with poor digestion to give Dr.Ward\u2019s Pills a trial, MRS.L.E.WATSON, Port Colberne, Ont.Dr.Ward's Blood and Nerve Pills are sold at so cents per box, 5 boxes for $2.00, at druggists, or mailed on receipt of price by Tbe Dr Mara Co,, 71 Victoria St, Toronto.of Information fx 00, THE S, CARSLEY CO, wre BIRTHS, Notre Dame St.Montreal's Greatest Store.Sept.2nd, 1898 ~~ FRIDAY'S BARGAINS ALL REPEATED TO-MORROW, SATURDAY SPEC AL SALE OF BOYS\u2019 SCHOOL CLOTHING!

Sept.1.\u2014(Special.}\u2014It was predicted \u2018that because of the rush of imports consequent upon \u2018the application of the preferential tariff twenty-five per cent.below the ordinary rate to Germany, Belgium amd other countries entitled to favored nation treatment duripg July, the customs receipts for August when the reduction would mat appply would: show a material decline.The returns for the month which ended yesterday show that this prophesy was not well grounded there being a difference of only $317,293 mn favor of July.Comparing August, 1397, with the same month 1898, the customs revenue shows an increase of $372,829.The following statement gives the revenue received from customs duties in July and August, 1898, as compared with the corresponding moniths im 1897 :\u2014 1898.1897.July.ve +.ween.$2,436,491 $1,386,167 August.$2,119,198 $1,746,309 It has been changed that, while giving an ostensible preference to Great Britain the Government have in reality increased the proportion of free goods coming from the United States as compared with dutiable goods, and have reduced the importation of free goods from Great Britain.A statement showing the dutiable and free importations from the United States and Great Britain for the past four years affords proof that the point is not well taken.Under the Foster tariff operative in 1895 Canada took proportionately more free goods from the United States than she did under the Fielding tariff in 1898.The importation of free s from the United States in 1895 was $3,043,000 more than the importation of dutiable goods, while in 1898 Canada took of free goods from the Republic $2,915,000 more than she imported of dutiable goods.While the free importations from the United States showed a proportionate decline ue between these twa years, the importation of free goods from Great Britain increased during the same period.Under Mr.Foster's tariff in 1895 Canada bought from Great Britain

a substantial preference.\u201d It is for them ts make the most of it.But there is no occasion for our grumbling if they seem to fail to do so.Your Englishman understands that the preference is a good thing and will enjoy it as much as possible, but he will not want to have it rammed down his throat.The announcement is made that Prince Edward Island is to have an Atlantic freight service with the best cold storage facilities.This news ought to be well received in the island, which has since 1891 developed a dairy industry of considerable magnitude.Prior to that time nothing in the way of co-operation was done.At the suggestion of Professor Robertson the Dominion Government established cheese factories, to which the farmers agreed to send milk.The movement was fortunate, end by 1893 eleven stations were in full working order, with 1,187 patrons.In 1898 the Government began to withdraw and the farmers to purchase the factories and erect mew ones.The growth of the industry may be inferred from the figures relative to the cultivation of Indian corn, which, as ensilage, is the principal winter food of dairy cattle.In 1890 there were not more than ten acres of it on the island.In 1896 there were more than ten thousand acres.Inefficient steamship service and the necessity of sending much of the cheese to Quebec for shipment has deterred the business somewhat, but this should be done away with now that there is to be direct first-class cold storage acoommo- dation.The export butter trade will be sure \u2018to derive immense impetus from the new move.City Treasurer Robb deserves every encouragement in his effort to make the Water Committee of the City Council do business on a business basis.He insiste that teaders shall he called for before some thousands of dollars\u2019 worth of coal are purchased, and does not take kindly to the order of the Mayor to set aside £15,000 for the Water Committee\u2019s use.It is a matter of surprise that the Mayor should assume the attitude he hae on this subject.There is still very grave suspicion as to the validity of last year\u2019s coal account, and to go on buying from the same firm without either tender or appropriation is nothing short of a scandal.Tt ie to be hoped Mr.Robb\u2019s firmness will lead to a thorough investigation.There is probably not a bit of use trying to convince the average American that better trade arrangements would be quite as much to the advantage of the United States as of Canada.That personage no doubt bases all his calculations on \u2018the figures of population, and will assume, Tight or wrong, that any readjustment must be by way of a favor granted to the benighted dwellers in these morthern climes.No doubt also it would be easy to find plenty in this country who will argue that so long as the Americans have so good an opinion of themselves Canadians ought not to make any effort to secure a betterment of the existing ar- | rangements.This would be a very simple case of the blind leading the blind, and involves a large measure of probability of going wrong.What is hoped from the Quebec Conference is that a meeting of men who can look upon matters of trade with the larger vision of genuine statesmanship may be productive of a clearer understanding on both sides.The Americans have acted up till now as though we were doing them a wrong by offering the people of the Eastern States Canadian products which they could buy to the best advantage if they only would, and \u2018hat they were doing us a great favor when they allowed us to buy some sixty or more millions of goods every year on which they make a handsome profit.It is true that for twenty years we repaid them folly for folly.But most of the time they were on the aggressive, we on the defensive.The cooler and more observant amongst them now realize that Canada has not been crushed, is not begging for better terms, as it was expected would be the case.The Canadian Commissioners meet their American friends at Quebec with was more prosperous, and that the prosperity of the United States is not greater than ours.Therein lies the best hope of a happy outcome of the conference,

among his schoolfellows at Eton.1t is even said on authority that he owed this mickname in the first instance to his mother.The duke was 44 years old whemw he succeeded to bis titles and princely estates, from which his income to-day is, at a moderate estimate, a sovereign a minute.He has written to the press that his income is not so large as was supposed and that he was called Jack Sheppard because his hair was kept cropped.Bishop Selwyn used to say that, while in New Zealand, he had often swum two or three rivers with his clothes om his head on his way to a confirmation.If his chaplains had to conform to the same conditions, the rules for their selection must have differed from those obtaining in England.On one occasion, Bishop Sel- wyn, who never spared himself, was seis ing an hour\u2019s much-needed sleep on the bench of a little roadside station in Derby- shire, en route for & confirmation.A lady of some social distinction and her daughter were on their way to the.same rite, the daughter as confirmee.They went to the solitary porter, and said they were afraid to pass the drunken man on the platform.To which the porter replied in tones of much solemnity : 1f you please, my lady, it\u2019s the Lord Bishop!\u2019 The fortification and equipment of Es- quimalt es a first-class naval base are being carried out with the utmost energy and secrecy.When finished, England will pcssess in the North Pacific a strong place of supply and repair second in strength and completeness of plant to nothing in the world.Public attention has been drawn afresh to the great works under construe- tion there, says the London Outlook, by the acquisition of the land on which the town stands, for the purposes of the fortress, and by the renewed energy with which the works are being carried on.But as to yvhat is being done, and what the completed works are like, little can be learnt.For the past two years the whole area of operations has been surrounded night and day by a cordon of sentinels which nothing can break except a permit direct from the Imperial War Office.John D.Rockefeller, having been compelled by the Supreme Court to disclose the stoekho'der< {1 Standard

Commission, in the Canadian Pacific passenger nate case, decided to-day that the Canadian Pacific is not entitled to the differential passenger rates conten ed I.oly is now one month since the commission took up the official investigation 0 the circumetances leading up to the pre sent warfare in passenger rates.¢ in that investigation, Mr.McNicol, of e Canadian Pacific, showed the grounds on which his line claimed a continuance of the differential, which it had enjoyed for a number of years, and it was genera:ly supposed that the commission could find no reason to give a verdict adverse to the CPR.It will, therefore, be learned with surprise that the federal authority of che United States has deoided that the C.P.R.shall relinquish their differential claim.The Grand Trunk Railway System have about completed their agreements for steamship arrangements at Portland, Me., for next season, having closed contracts with thie Alian line, for service to Glasgow; the Thomson line to London; the Ham- burg-American line for sailings to Antwerp; the Elder-Dempster line to Bristoi, and the Allan line, and another steamship company for service to Liverpool.A new line to Liverpool will be operated from Portliand, in connection with the Grand Trunk Railway System this coming seuson, the name of which is withheld pending the arrival of the principals, wha ate expected to reach Montreal in the course of a few days.Under the direction of General Traffic Manager Reeve, the Grand 'Lrunk have greatly increased their European business gince the change in the management, and this year, judging from the arrangements that have already been completed, the sct- vice to be provided will give shippers in Canada, especially, a satisfactory outlet for the large crops that bave been harvested.Viost of the vessels that will ply from Portland during the winter season have been docking at Montreal during the present summer.\"Fhe Cheap Fare to Toronto.The cheap fare on both

here and the capital.t is stated \u2018that a war might possibly result from the action of one of the rait- ways in advertising a $1.75 rate between the two cities.Officials of the two roads were seen this morning and declined absolutely to discuss what they termed * a foolish yarn, without a possibility of truth.\u201d G.T.R.Improvements.The Grand Trunk Railway system arc undentaking considerable new work on their Western Division.They are now erecting a new clipping elevator, fitted up with the most modern machinery, at Eisdon, which is their railroad yard in Chicago.Within the last two or three years a decided change has taken place in the shipment of oats from the west, and in order to find a satisfactory market practically all of this particular kind of grain has to be cleaned and clipped, the clipping consisting of removing the extreme ends of the oat, thus making it possible to increase the weight per bushel.The establishment of this new industry on the line of the Grand Trunk system will no doubt attract a considerable vo!- ume of business which the railway company have not in the immediate past been enjoying.MADAME DREYFUS TALKS| KILLED IN À BRAWL She Says that in

2.\u2014(Special.) \u2014The parish of St.Hugues which is about ten miles from St.Hyacinthe, in Bagot County, is much excited this morning over the fatal ending of a brawl which occurred last night about 9.15.It appears that for some time past much ill-feeling has existed between two young men named Dalbre and Bergeron respectively, and an opportunity offering itself last night, the two met, when a terrible fight ensued, the result being that Bergeron succumbed to the wounds received, which are supposed to have been inflicted with an iron bar.The police authorities have been notified here and will proceed forthwith to the scene of the tragedy.The oy development 4% yet known in the St.Hugues tragedy is that the quarrel between Dalbre and Bergeron occurred whilst they were engaged trading horses, and that both men were under the influence of liquor.Coroner Blanchard has re- celved instructions to proceed to St.Hugues to hold an inquest.Detective Wingender has also gone to assist in the investigation.GEN.SHAFTER TALKS.\u2018 The Rush With Which the Santiago Campaign Was Undertaken Respon sible for Sickness.New York, Sept.2\u2014The World prints an interview with General William Kk.Shafter, in which he is represented as saying :\u2014\u201cAt Santiago we had to deal with things as they are, not as they should be.Of course there was sickness.It was in- evitabls in a summer campaign.But nobody was neglected.Doctors were \u2018scarce at first, but we had boat loads of them as soon as they could get there.The doctors got sick like the rest.They were overworked and exhausted.But their ability is unquestionable.Look at the low percentage of deaths from wounds.It never was lower in any war.Why, in the civil war, I lay on the battlefield myself until maggots developed in my wounds, and that was right near by, not down in a malarious, subtropical country far away.\u201cThe men who ordered a summer campaign in a fever-infected country are responsible for the natural and unavoidable consequences.None of our wounded were allowed to lie on the battlefield.\u201cIt was the heat that was so deadly, and the mains.Right in the midst of the most torrid heat a shower would fall.It would drench everybody without cooling the air.In a few minutes, under the sun again, every man would be steaming.Men of the strongest constitutions succumbed.\u201cI am, however, satisfied with the Santiago campaign.When it is fully understood, with all its difficulties, it will receive its just place in military history.We were hurried off to Cuba, landed, and could not have got our stores back on board ship if we had wanted to.When the invasion was planned, it was obvious that it must be a rush.Such it was.\u201cAnd it was a success\u2014complete and unequivocal.\u201d

Seized.mers IS AN INTOXICANT ?This is the Question Which the Government Wants Definitely Settled.WHAT MAY BE A CHANGE IN THE LAW, mamas The charges which the Revenue Police have made agaist the proprietors of small restaurants, and shcbeens, where alcoholic liquor is alleged to have been sold, were ealled for hearing in the Yo- lice Court this morning.The cases were, however, adjourned indefinitely, pending an investigation by the Govern: ment, as to what really constitutes an intoxicating beverage.Messrs.J.H.Clorand and Drouin, advocates for the Revenue Department, stated thig morning that the Government wished to have an independent tommis- sion of analyists to analyze the lager which had been seized.Their report will be sent to a number of medical gentleman who will be asked to establish what constitutes an intoxicating beverage.These two reports will be submitted to the magistrates in the province, who will be asked their opinion regard- \"ing an amendment to the law by which a certain limit would be fixed as to the percentage of alcohol which could enter into non-intoxicant drinks.This investigation is to be made not with a desire to protect the proprietors of shebeens where liquor is unlawfully sold, but to establish a precedent.The law as it reads to-day, that any drink which contains ap \u201cintoxicating principle\u201d is an intoxicating beverage, is open to most conflicting interpretations.Certain.parties contend that a beverage that contains but one per cent.of alcohol is an intoxicating drink because it has the \u201cintoxicating princple,\u201d inasmuch .that if a sufficient quantity of the stuif is taken ond will become intoxicated.Others are of an entirely different opinion.They establish a marked difference between an \u201calcoholie principle,\u201d and an \u201cintoxicating principle.\u201d For instance, if a tablespoonful of alcohol 1s thrown into a barrel of water, the water assumes the \u201calcoholic principle,\u201d but not the \u2018intoxicating principle.\u201d Tt is the intention of the government, therefore, ri possible to so amend the law that a certain per cent.of alcohol in a beverage will make it an intoxicant.The amendment is regarded as most desirable.It is probable that the revenue cases now before the court will be tried according to she amendment if one is eventually made.RAINY RIVER DISTRICT.The Railway Work Going on at Present Contributes to the Prosperity of the Country.Winnipeg, Sept.2.\u2014(Special.)\u2014Mr.Fau- kuir, contractor for the first section of twenty-five miles of the Ontario & Rainy River Railway, extending from Stanley on the Port Arthur, Duluth & Western Railway, to the Mattawan iron range, is in the city.The section under contract is now being graded and will be completed this fall.James Conmee, M.P.P., has a gang of men at work supplying timber and ties, for which he holds the contract.Tor the present it is only intended to build to Fort Frances, where connection will be had with navigation on the Rainy River.At some futur2 date, however, the line will be extended so as to connect with the Manitoba & South- \u2018eastern Railway.The latter road, as well as the Ontario & Rainy River Railway, is controlled by Messrs.Mackenre & Mann.The two gentlemen named recently acquired the Port Arthur, Duluth & Western Railway, and now propose to extend it in order to join the Dujuth & Iron Range Railway in the State af Minnesota.The present terminus of the Port Arthur, Duluth & Western is at the Gun Flint Iron Mines, six miles across the boundary line.From there it will be continued in a southeriy direction for a distance of some forty wiles until # meets the Duluth & Iron Range: Railway at Snowbank Lake.The latter road has this year been built north from Duluth for a distance of ten or twelve miles.Mosquitoes and Malaria.The statement of Dr.Koch, the celebrated bacteriologist, that he has become a convert to the view that malarial germs are introduced into th human body hy are introduced into the human body by numerous articles in the daily papers, assuming that this theory is new, and that it originated with Dr.Koch.Readers of The Digest will remember that it was fully discusssed several years ago, and we now learn from an editorial in The Medical Record, (July 30), that the hypothesis is still older Than that.Says The Record: \u201cThe theory that certain diseases may be conveyed by means of insects is not a new one.Linnaeus was among the first to make the suggestion, although his views in this resp®ct gained no foothold.Dr.Drake and Sir Henry Holland alse drew attention to its probability.Latterly many investigators have endeavored to show that the mosquitoe is indirectly instrumental in the production of many diseases, and especially in that of malaria.Dr.Charles Finlay, of Havana, in 1881, submitted some papers to L\u2019Acade- mie Royale des Sciences Medicales in Belgium, tending to prove that the mosquito under certain conditions may cet as the transmitter of yellow fever, and has repeatedly since that time Written in support of this belief.Quite recently Dr.Patrick Manson who for many years has held the belief that the mosquito may \u2018act as the intermediary host of filaria sanguinis hominis,\u2019 has stated his opinion that the mosquito plays the part of the extracorporeal host of the plasmodium malaria.Koch, who has just returned from East Africa, where be has been studying the clinical and etjo- logical aspects of malaria under peculiarly favorable circumstances, is in agreement with these views.He bases this argument on the ground that mosquitoes are always prevalent wherever malaria prevails, and he mentions one locality in which, mosquitoes being absent, there ia no malaria, althopgh the conditions are otherwise favorable to its production.Big- nami last year published a paper in which almost identical conclusions were drawn, Referring to the observations of Smith and Kilborne, he drew attention to an example of a disease of the blood due to an intracorpuscular parasite and inoculated into cattle by a suctorial insect, and went on to =ay: \u2018Malaria behaves itself with regard to man as if the malarial germs were inoculated by mosquitoes.\u2019 As long as 1893 Marchiafava repeatedly asserted in private his belief in this mode of transmission of malaria, but he did not publish this view as what he regarded as a positive demonstration was wanting.Now, however, the contention that the malarial poison is disseminated by the mosquito 1s supported bv facts which are practically as convincing es those which can be adduced in favor of any other theory as to its cause.The | oxen, goats, sheep, pigs and question as to how the fever is contracted ce it is is a most important one, for for a solved, the way will be pave rational prophylaxis of malaria.\u201d The Sick Man of Africa.For two generations at least, the Sultan of Morocco has been a \u2018\u2018sick man,\u201d and now the signs are that he is as \u201csick\u201d as the Emperor of China or the Sultan of Turkey, and one diagnosis is that his unhealthy condition wiil lead to a more speedy collapse.The sultanate on the northwest coast of Africa is a splendid empire.1ts 219,- 000 square miles of territory include vast unworked stores of rich minerals, Luxu- rant forests clothe the mountains and the soil is as fertile as any in the world.But these riches are undeveloped and the country is going to waste under its Mohan medan rulers.The proud followers « f Islam are not like tner sturdy ancestors of old, the race from which Othello sprang and which overran Span.They are {dle \u2018and thrfftless, and are no, more like their energetic and brave ancestors than are the Turks of to-day Ii who fought in Omar\u2019s army.y like those The climate is well suited to Europeans.The warm sun is tempered by cool breezes, which keep off the scorching winds from the Sahara.All Morocco lacks to become a garden spot and hive of industry is good government.There Is not a great power in Europe that would not like to try to furnish this good government to the country.It is the Jealous eye with which each of the powers has watched all of the others that has prevented one of them izi the Sultan\u2019s domain.from seizing But now that the Europeans greed for colonies has grown, the struggle has become more keen.Germany and Italy have decided that they cannot wait for the spoils.The kaiser intrigues and Humbert follows suit.Both are exploring the country, and the sultan fears.lis grand vizier has dispatched embassies to London and Rome, seeking aid.Such aid must be had or he will perish, for the army contains only about 40,000 men, and these are not of much account.So the sick man of Africa trembles, and if no helping hand is extended his empire will perish and he will not be regretted.a The \u201cDum-Dum\u201d Bullet.(London Mail.) .Dr.von Bruns, Professor of International Taw at Tubingen University, recently published a pamphlet, in which he pleaded.in the interests of humanity, for an international interdiction of the \u201cDumdum\u201d bullet.The professor acknowledged that the use of the bullet was justified in colonial or Indian wars, where the fight is generally at close quarterd, and often between man and man, and where 1t is a question of the European totally disabling his opponent or being at once struck down himself.In wars between Europeans, however, where the combatants are generally far apart, the professor considers that the bullets in question are not only unnecessarily inhuman, but are less effective than ordinary bullets.Surgeon-General Dr.Korting, surgeon- in-chief of the First German Army Corps, who has been carefully studying the reports of the Italian Hospital Corps on its exeperience in the late campaign against Abyssinia, now writes, says our Berlin correpondent, as follows.\u201cThe Italian projectile (soft lead, copper mantle, 6.5 mm.calibre), with great penetrating power, produced small inlet and outlet apertures, bone fractures, and altogether a smocth wound canal.On the cther hand, the hard lead projectile of the Abyssinians (Gras and Remington, eleven millimetres) exploded in the soft parts and shattered the bones.The effect was that Abyssinians, even when shot in several different places, were able to con- tirue fighting.Out of a hundre\u201d wounded Abyssinians who applied for relief to the captured Italian doctors, 8 per cent.presented themselves without any eup- port, in spite of the fact that some of them were shot through the breast.In reality, only those men who had wounded by artillery were brought On stretchers.Within three weeks thousands of Abyssinians were healed in spite of the primitive bandaging.\u201cThe results on the Italian side were infinitely less favorable.The troops of the Negus had also soon discovered that the small #alibre weapon used by the Italians were absolutely inadequate, and when they were given -the muskets and ammunition ceptured from the Italians they filed through the copper end-covering of the bullets in order to increase their efficacy.The English troops did exactly the same thin; , and for the same reasons during the \u2018Chitral campaign, whereupon a tremendous storm of indignation arose; which penetrated even to the Congress Hall of the Berlin Surgeons.Iam of another opinion.The war experiences referred to above show rather that the minimum calibre has been reached, and that in a number of cases sufficient to influence the result of the battle the mantled bullet of muskets under 8.9 millimetres does mot suffice to put the enemy \u2018hors de combat.\u2019 \u201cThe filling through the point of a man- bled bullet is, in my opinion, an act of self-help againet an enemy on whom the unimpaired bullet does mot inflict suf- ticient injury.\u201d The Kronstadt of Asia.(London Mail.) Immense fortifications are to be constructed at Port Axthur.The object is to render it secure from any naval or land attack.The cost will be borne by à special or extraordinary appropriation.The forts to be constructed are these: No.1, one mile and an eighth east of the town, will be armed with eight 12-inch Canet guns of the latest pattern and 45.calibre.They will have a range of thirteen miles.The utmost elevation will be 39 degrees and the angle of train 280 degrees.The secondary armamentt consists of sixteen 6-inch quick firers, mounted in steet casements 15 inches thick in front and 5 inches in the sides and roof.The 12-inch guns will be mounted independently in turratgs of 16-inch armor The fort will have five search-lights.Attached to the fort will be two torpedo stations, each with three 18-inch tubes The works are to be invisible from the sea.Fort No.2, on the west of the town, from which it is distant two and a half miles, is practically the same as No.1, but is fifty yards longer on the sea-front, and even more heavily armed.It mounts eleven 12-inch and twenty eight 86-inch quick-firing guns.The protection, fittings, and clevation are the same as in No.1.There are two torpedo stations, with three tubes each, and five search-lights.Fort No.3, three miles to the rear of the town, contains barracks for 5,000 infantry and 1,200 artillerv.It mounts twelve 12-inch and fifty-two 4-inch guns.A Military Funeral.The funeral of the late Henry Shave, of the .ince of Wales\u2019 Fusiliers, took place yesterday from 87 Papineau avenue to Mount Royal cemetery.The funeral services were held at the East End Methodist church.The St.Thomas Cadets attended in a body and furnished a firing party at the grave.Cecil Rhodes, Farmer.Cecil Rhodes\u2019 farm in Mashonaland appears to be prospering.A recent visitor reports that 4,000 trees have been planted, and a considerable area of land is already under cultivation.Next year it is hoped to have twenty times as much ground under cultivation.In March last the farm presented a very flourishing aspect.A crop of oats was rapidly ripening, and fields of cabbage were doing well.Kitchen and flower gardens have been laid out on an extensive scale.The dwelling house is of stone, and stables and cowsheds have been built.The soil in the neighborhood is nich, and, thanks to the ancient inhabitants of the land, the irrigation is good.The cattle feed on sweet, nutritious grass and are rolling in fat.The farm has already been stocked by Mr.Rhodes with a large number ot poultry.\u2014 London Telegraph.oo | afternoon and evening.ANGLO-GERMAN ALLIANCE.London, Sept.2.\u2014A report was current here to-day that a treaty of alliance between Great Britain and Germany, on the lines of the speech of Mr.Joseph Chamberlain, the Secretary of State for the Colonies, was actually completed yes terday.This is probably an amplilica- tion of the gossip relative to the daily visits of Count Von Hatzfeldt-Wildenburg, the German ambassador here, to the British Foreign Office during the past fortnight, which have been attributed to a desire upon the part of Germany and Great Britain to formulate a common policy in regard to Russia and China.It is said that as a quid pro quo for Germany\u2019s support in Egypt, Great Britain will recognize Germany\u2019s claims to utilize Syria as an outlet for her surplus population.Another explanation of the German ambassador's visits to the Foreign Office here is that they relate to the mixed tribunals of Egypt, the international agreement on the subject ending in February.Through French and Russian influence, the court has always hampered the British plans for the use of the Fgyptian savings, and the advancement of Egypt.Now, it is said, an agreement has been almost reached by which Germany will support the British views relative to the future composition and powers of the mixed tribunals.BUDGET FROM CORNWALL Enterprising Merchants

Sept.2.\u2014The Pall Mall Gazette this afternoon says it has every oon- fidence in the information showing that ithe Anglo-German agreement was signed tuis week by Air.Balfour and the German Ambassador in behalf of the respective powers.Oontinuing, the Pall Mall Gazette says that while the agreement is restricted it embraces an offensive and defensive alll ance in certain eventualities.The Pall Mall Gazette adds: \u2018This new and momentous depanture in our foreign policy comes as a natural development of the European situation.\u201d | The Pad Mall Gazette then quotes the speech which Mr.Joseph Chamberlain, the Secretary of State for the Colonies, made at Birmingham on May 30th last, bidding for a German alliance, and continues: \u201cLatterly it has been evident from the tone of the semi-official German press that the two govermments have been drawing closer, and finally there were prolonged conferences between Count Hatzfeidt and Mr.Balfour.The departure of Count Hatzfeldt proves that the object of the consultations has been achieved.Besides.Mr.Chamberlain has gone to Amerioa.Lord Salisbury ig prolonging his absence and Mr.Balfour leaves for

Mr.Henniker Heaton in an Article in the Fortnightly Review Gives Some Figures, Toronto, Sept.2.\u2014The following is a special cable to the Evening Telegram, dated London, Sept.1:\u2014Mr.'Henniker Heaton, in an article in the Fortnightly Review for September, expresses the hope that by January next the Australasian colonies will adopt the penny postage rate.Mr.Heaton places the loss of revenue which Britain will sustain as a result of penny postage at £89,585.The loss of revenue to the colonies from the same cause he estimates at £76,047.At the same time Mr.Heaton predicts an increase of one-half in correspondence the first \u2018year, as a result of the reduced rate.Deducting the amount of postage receivable on this increase, namely, £29,- 861, from DBritain\u2019s gross sacrifice, and £25,349 from the gross colonial sacrifice, Mr.Heaton finds that the boon of penny postage will cost Britain £59,724 and the colonies £50,698.Of this latter sum Mr.Heaton says the Australasian colonies should contribute £13,950 or £1,993 each.Thus, Mr.Heaton observes, to make Imperial penny postage complete, only a sacrifice of £13,950 is required by the British colonies of Australasia.The same article says Canada has reason to complain of the unreasonable system of charges for the sea freightage of letters, but says it may be regarded as tolerably certain that Hon.Wm.Mulock Postmaster-General of Canada, will soon give this subject his attention.It is only in official circles that the Scheme for a Pacific cable is boomed.In anadian commercial circles it is thought that the cable woul ta he d be of no advantage 3 D'CLOCK PRICES, AFTERNOON BOARD, NEW YORK STOCKS.rat Mr.C.D.Monk has received the f quotations by private wire from J.ollowlag & Co., New York: Bache

and the first skirmish took place to-day, when an advance guard of cavalry located a large body of the Dervishes at a supposed outpost near Kerrerf, about eight miles tiorth of Omdurman.a hie enemy showed a disposition to 1ght, beating war drums and displavin battle bunting.\u201d playing \u2018The mounted troop emptied a few Dervish saddles, and three gunboats steamed up the river, in front of the town and shelled the Dervishes\u2019 position.The enemy\u2019s loss could not be ascertained, as the Dervishes were in a hollow: but fleeing troops could be distinctly seen.\u20ac army 1s moving slowly.Yesterday it ad vanced fo ] i \u2018 ur miles in ' form > close GROCERS NOMINATE \u2014\u2014 A Big List of Members Who Will Seek Office in the Association.The Grocers\u2019 Association met last night at the Monument National.Mr.J.P.Dixon, the treasurer, reported on the expenses of the annual picnic which took place at Cornwall some time ago;

THE EVIL IS VERY SERIOUS.Many Main Streets Are Monopolized by Men Who Use Them for Speeding.Cally THE POLICE ARE BLIND.remets Mr.Hugh O\u2019Brien, a printer, living on William street, was almost killed last evening by the criminal recklessness of two men in a light racing sulky.O\u2019Brien and a friend were crossing Craig strect towards The Herald office.When just clear of the car tracks a grey horse and racing sulky, in which were two men, dashed down on them at a furious pace.No effort was made to pull in the horse, and O\u2019Brien was struck in the side and fell, his head striking with great force on the roadway.He was carried unconscious into No.1 fire station, ;while the sulky and its occupants went on in their mad career without bothering their heads about the harm they had wrought.Efforts were made to overtake them, but with no avail.lt appears that the two men in the sulky had been drinking à good part of the afternoon in a small saloon at the corner of Lagauchetiere and St.Charles Borromee.The police are looking for them, but have not found them as yet.Mr.O\u2019Brien\u2019s wounds were dressed at the hospital, and it thought he will recover.A circumstance which makés the outrage all the more dastardly is that Mr.O\u2019Brien is lame, and consequently not so active as another might be.Of course there was no policeman in sight, but it would not have made much difference if there was.Furious driving goes on on all the main streets of the city at all hours of the day and night, but the police never take any notice of it, even though it is an offence.Chief Hughes says he has not enough men to protect the public, bul he is able to take thirty men off the force to form a band, which is no service to the city, and plays for hire in direct competition with mu- gicians who pay taxes.The authorities should make a determined effort to prevent the public streets being turned into a speeding track, for often drunken blackguards, who seem to have mo regard for human life or limb.Lvery day there are dozens of narrow escapes of which no one ever hears, and the wonder is that more people are not killed or crippled through being run over.But even one death\u2014or murder\u2014by fur- lous driving should be enough to put the police on the offensive against the prac- ice.uring the present summer two bfcy- clists have been killed by being run down, and vus class seem to be a target for the men who race their horses along city streets and country roads.A great many ladies have expressed their fear of crossing any of the frequented streets when walking with young children, owing to the danger of some of these men driving along.They are compelled to take the quiet back streets to find safety.Craig street and St.Lawrence Main street, both thoroughfares which are crowded with foot and vehicular traffic all day and all evening, are favorite resorts for the speeder, and it would be well for the police to begin with those streets in a crusade against the practice.> cw - LABOR DAY PARADE, Federated Trades Council Discuss the Matter Last Night and Complete Arrangements.Despite the wet weather last night the Federated Trades Council held a good meeting at Blue Label Hall, Vice-Presi- dent F.Roberge in the chair, and a good deal of business was done.The Credential Committee reported favorably upon the admission of the ful- lowing new delegates: Thomas Dury, o- cal No.24, American Flint Glass Workers\u2019 Uniom;

of the Francais, he obtained an acquittal in the lower court some time ago.Acts ing on privilege, Mr.Phillips gave secur ity that he would proceed against him in the Court of Queen\u2019s Bench, which is equivalent to an appeal.Mr.R.A.E.Greenshields, counsel for the defendant, explained to the court that his client was not present; that it was only by chance he had heard of the depositing of the security and as he did not know the whereabouts of his client, he requested a few days\u2019 delay in order to communicate with him.After some consultation this was granted.The court then rose till this morning.MILLION AND A QUARTER That is What Montrealers Have Spent in Street Car Fares.It is Over $110,289 More Than the Fares Cost Them in 11 Months Last Year, mn iv \u2018 In eleven months Montrealers have spent $1,323,085.82 in street car fares, which is the largest amount within a similar period on record.For the same time last year they had only spent $1,212,796.39, making the enormous increase for this year of $110,289.43.During August the Street Railway earnings were $143,801.19, and that was an increase over August last year of $12,- 369.52.For the eleven months the average daily earnings of the \u201celectrics\u201d have been $3,- 961.34, which is an average daily increase over last year of $330.21.Here are the Street Railway earnings in a nutshell ;

one of those pretty home stories which appeal to the heart and is always popular with theatre-goers, and particularly ladies.The fact that it was written by William Haworth, the author of the \u201cEnsign,\u201d is justification for the selection.The scene is laid at the time of \u2018the American civil war, and gives ample scope for heroic sentences and beautiful scenery.Mr.W.E.Phillips has wired to his New York agents to book Hal Stevens, a musical expert, who is said to be an entirely new and clever vaudeville turn.À special matinee will be given at thd Queen\u2019s on Labor Day to welcome Jones back to his old home.Howell Hanstl will be seen in his old part and will be supported by a specially selected company of great strength.Mr.Walter B.Wood- ell has been engaged to play Prof.Goodly, and Montreal play-goers who remember his excellent work in eccentric characters will look forward to an artistic treat.Mr.Louis La Bey will repeat his comrcai sketch of the Swedish servant, and Mr.T.H.Ince, of the former company, will be the Richard Heatherley.Mr.À .Wright has been fortunate in securing some talented and pretty actresses for the female characters and he is confident that \u201cWhat Happened to Jones\u201d has never been played better than by the company he has engaged for this season.\u201cOn the Suwanee River,\u201d which comes to the Theatre Royal for one week with the usual matinees daily, commencing next Monday afternoon, is in no sense of the word a \u201ccoon\u201d show, and has no connection with an attraction which was toured two years ago under a similar title and was composed almost entirely of colored people.The present play is a new comedy drama and was first produced in Cleveland, Ohjo, January 17th this year.THE NEW RINK.Lists Are Now Open foreabscriptions to Start the Big Hockey Rink to Be Built Shortly.The prospects seem good that Montreal will this winter have the best hockey rink in the world.The scheme to which reference has already been made in The Herald gives good promise of culminating successfully.A meeting of those interested was held in the Windsor Hotel last evening.No business was transacted but the plans were fully discussed.The list now is open for subscribers to stock, and the plan was displayed, which shows an amphitheatre with a seating capacity of 7,000 people, and a ice area of 200 feet by 85 feet.This would make an ideal place of play, and as the prospectus calls for comfortable clubrooms and every convenience that could be thought of both for the comfort of spectators and the comfort of the players, as well as having the building transformable for band concerts, horse shows, or like exhibitions, it is altogether likely that the project will receive public support.MIDDLETON'S WIVES.Two of Them Will be on Hand to Testify Against Him Next Week.Woodstock, Ont.Sept.2.\u2014(Special.)\u2014 At the hearing of the bigamy charge next Tuesday, two of Middleton's wives, Lil- lias Munroe, of Toronto, and Sarah Smith, of Sarnia, will be present to testify.Other important witnesses have also been subpoenaed, and the Crown confidently expects that Mddleton will be committed for trial before Judge Boyd at the Assizes, wheih open on the 20th instant.When Mrs.Thomas charged Middleton with having a wife in Sarnia before he married Maggie, the accused admitted it, but said he left her because she was already married to a young student, according to her own admission.This is looked upon by most people as one of Middie- ton\u2019s ever-ready explanatins, but it is altogether likely that it will occupy a prominent part in the defence.Even if such a marriage is proven, there is a section of the code under which the prisoner can be indicted.Are You Cross ?If you have a fit

Arthur Gauthier, formerly a well-known commercial traveller, attempted suicide by cutting his throat with a razor in his room at \u2018the St.Louis Hotel, Jacques Cartier square.Ie had been for a long time without employment, and had been drinking heavily.He had left the St.Louis Hotel some time ago, leaving his trunks as security for the amount of his bill.Last evening he returned to \u201che hotel, and asked Madame Lagamere, wife of the proprietor, if she would permit said, to go to one of his brothers for some money.Madame Lagamere gave the desired permission.À few minutes aîter- wards the came to her and asked to be allowed to stay at the hotel for the night, him.At about a quarter past ten one of the boarders, Mr.Wm.Robb, of Quebec, went into the same room, and saw Gau- blood spurted out, and Mr.Robb threw himself upon the would-be suicide, and succeeded in disarming him.Gauthier was conveyed to the Notre Dame Hospital, where he is progressing favorably.\u2014_\u2014e Bout

Sept.1\u2014(Special.)\u2014Mr.Lessard, Government Building Inspoctor, who \u2018has been here for the last two days inspecting the cathedral, handed in his report to His Lordship Bishop Moreau last night.In the report the mspector declares that the building in its present condition is quite unsafe in view of the defective concrete foundation, and orders its demolition as early as possible.The rebuilding of the ecathodral involves am expenditure of about $300,000 to the diocese, and therefore calls for mature consideration.Tennis To-morrow.To-morrow the M.A.A.A.tennis team will play the

Show Strength in the London Market.ep STREET RAILWAY EARNINGS.\u2014_\u2014\u2014 There is not such an imposing list of sales this morning as was presented yesterday, but the market nevertheless showed a very fair amount of activity.The bulls still have the upper hand, although in the big Wall street the bull movement seems to be slightly overdone, that is if the market this morning affords any criterion.(Canadian Pacific was again a leading feature of the market here, and it was strong in London, L.J.Forget\u2019s private cable quoting $0 3-8 and afterwards 90 7-16.One thousand shares of Pacific sold here on the basis of 88 3-4, and there was also liberal trading at 88 3-8, 88 1-2, and 88 5-8.There are still evidences of very good buying, and some of the brokers continue to express the belief that insiders \"have a hand in it.In the way of the cotton securities there was not so much done; in fact, the trading was confined to 100 shares Dominion at 97 3-4, and 25 shares Montreal at 152 1-2.The recent agreement arrived at, in which the local field for grey cottons is left to the Dominion Cotton Company, is largely responsible for the Late Firmness, although the promise of a one per cent.bonus, as previously mentioned, has also importance.There is also talk of a bonus in connection : with Montreal Catton, but the cotton bonuses are often declared in such a way that they can scarcely be considered an extra dividend.Toronto Railway is still very firm on the basis of 102 1-8 to 102 1-4, and Richelieu is strong at 103.War Eagle was higher this morning, selling at $2.86 1-2, then at $2.87 and $2.87 1-2.Total sales were 3,500 shares.Electric was strong and the remainder of the ligt was quiet and about steady.Montreal Street Railway earnings yesterday amounted to $4,447.92, an increaso of $314.08.Toronto Railway earnings une day before were $4.546.96, an increase of 5589.87.L.J.Forget\u2019s cable gave the following London quotaïions: Grand Trunk, 1st preference, 68 1-2; third do., 20 1-2; Plud son Bay, 20 3-4; Canadian Pacific, 90 3-8, and later 90 7-16.In Wall Street.There was a quieter tone to Wall street \u2018 stocks this morning, and the feeling was, if anythang, a little weaker.Mr.C.L.Monk\u2019s despatches saidT\u2014 The market continues to be principally in the hands of the room traders and professional operators.London brokers bought sparingly in their favorite issues.Metropolitan earnings for the month of August showed an increase of $154,000.JP.directors meet to-day.It is expected \u2018that $3,000,000 wifi be wet

the new Richelieu & Ontario Navigation Company's steamer Toronto, which was within a month of completion; and a steam barge intended for the Prescott Elevator Company, which was lying at the end of one of the wharves.The loss was dalculated by an official of the company at $150,000, exclusive of the damage to the steamer Toronto, which, it is hoped, will be slight.The fire started in a large wooden building used as a carpenter shop, where the woodwork of ships is constructed, and was supposed at the time to have been caused ¥ an explosion, although a member of the firm stated this morning that no explosives of any kind were kept in the building.Tt was first discovered about one o'clock by à man named Williamson, who keeps a hotel at Front and Bathurst streets.The brigade responded quickly, but gneat difficulty was experienced in: getting the en- gincs to the scene, and the fire spread so rapidly that much of the damage was dune almost before the fight against it ccald be properly commenced.The carpenter shop was soon quite be- yewd control, and was entirely destroyed.The flames then spread to the dock by which it stood, and seized upon it, the heat becoming so intense that the fre- men could not get near enough to adequately cope with the fire.This dock was also destroyed, and the blaze rapidly spread to the fine new steamer Toronto, which was building for the Richelieu & Ontario Navigation Company.The woodwork of the steamer, however, was quite green, and would not readily catch, so that the total loss of the vessel, which would otherwise undoubtedly have happened, was fortunately averted.\u201cAn effort was made by the firemen to cut the steamer from its moorings, but was unsue- cessful owing to the intense heat, and the hrigade were compelled to fight for the ! boat as it lay at the wharf.Therestimat.el value of the Toronto is $250,000.She is almost completed, and would have heen ready to hand over in about a month.The only work yet remaining to be completed i: the woodwork finishing and the decorat- irg.The only other vessel in the Bertram docks is a steam barge for the Prescott Elevator Company, which lies at the end of the wharf.A second barge was completed and seat away last week.In the shipyards were located a large emounit of plant necessary for the construction of vessels, such as machinery for bending and sheathing, also the punching by paratus and the shipping tools.There was likewise an enormous quantity of lumber on hand.On the railway lines In the yards were stationed a number of Grand Trunk cars loaded with lumber.The railway company, however, quickly had a large staff of men and an engine on the scene, and pull- el the cars ae rapidly as possible out of harm\u2019s way, placing men on top of éach to fight the cinders, which fell in thick showers on every hand.The cause of tlie explosion, which was thought to have caused the fire, is supposed to have been spontaneous combustion in a quantity of material near the smoke-stack.The fro was got under control by two o'clock, The Bertram Engine Works, Toronto, gay that the steamer Toronto was not injured by the fire last night, except some of the paint near the stern.Some of*the panelwork and sheeting that was in the workshop was burned, but that the greater portion of the panelwork was stored in the paint shop and was ao ured.gre will not make any difference des the machinery ready.This will make no difference in the time the steamer All Neglige Shirts, C ree lines Starched .Bosoms.only, $1.50 Value $1.75 Value v.50C 63c | , ® 1553 $10,000;
