NOVEMBER 26.The Herald is Ten Pages every day.es, [ PL Y q 0 Wet and Mild To-morrow.\u2019 + 91ST YEAR.PAID MON ON It was the sixth of January, Epiphany day, 1897.À violent snowstorm swept over {he Province, and maay citizens remember the day as the coldest of the new year.A tale, which had its inception on that day, now comes to light.The story charges that positions on the police force are bought and sold for the personal gain of a clique.The festive season still being on, a gentleman of iMontreal, accompanied by Mr.Gaudias Marcoux, also of this city, paid, in ordinary courtesy, a friendly visit to the former\u201ds uncle, Mr, Paul Nor- mandin, a wealthy farmer at Laprairie, Among the many questions discussed was the possibility of obtaining for the uncle\u2019s son-in-law, Mr.Michael Marchand, a position on the police force in Montreal.Mr.Normandin was anxious that his son-in- Jaw should be a policeman in the metropolitan city of Canada, and asked his nephew to use his influence to obtain a position for him.Gaudias Marcoux was present at this interview, and was referred to as a man of influence with certain aldermen.Mr.Nor- mandin then asked Mr.Marcoux if it would Be poesible to obtain a position for his son- £n-law, Marchand.Mr.Marcoux assured Mr.Normandin that his son-in-law could easily get a job on the police force, but he would have to pay a certain sum of money.Mr.Normandin did not mind that, and Marcoux stated his price.It generally costs $200 to obtain a position on the force, he said, but as Mr.Normandin was a very particular friend, the position could be got tor Marchand for $150.That arrangement proved satisfactory, and the bargain was concluded.In the course of the afternoon of that same day, January 6, Marcoux visited Mr.Norman- din\u2019s stables and was struck by the appearance of one of the horses, there and said he wished to buy it.The horse belonged to one of Mr.Nor- mandin\u2019s sons-in-law (not Marchand).Its owner was standing by at the time, and it \u201cvas soon arranged that Mr.Marcoux was to get the horse as well as the $150 if he got Marchand a place on the police force.The bargain was sealed.The men left the stable and returned to the house where further details were arranged.Eight or ten days after the interview related above, Mr.Marchand, his wife ang child, came from Laprairie to Montreal, end took up their abode at 93 Carriere street.In fulfilment of the promise, Marchand gave $150 to Marcoux, and prepared himself to emerge from ithe domesticity of his humble home and don the costume of a guardian of the peace.If Marchand did obtain a position on the force he would th re + 7e UN ha Of \" a ave to swear that he had mot purchased ! offered Mr.Normandin $150 for the horses his job, and the possibility that he might be a scrupulous sont of an individual greatly troubled Marcoux for a few hours.In the police requirements there is a final and peculiar question, which was inserted some years ago.The candidate is asked whether he has paid or promised to pay any money to any person in the hope of securing an appointment to the force.Marcoux had received the $150 from Marchand.Well, he went and returned him the money and \u2018told him to tell Mrs.Marchand \u2018to give it to him.Then there would be no danger.Marchand could then swear truthfully that \u201che\u201d had neg raid for his position.The $150 was deposited in the Bank Jacques Cartier in Marcoux\u2019s mame, and everybody awaited developments.Days passed, weeks crept by, and still the promised job was not anmounced.Every day Marcoux assured Mr.Marchana that it was only a question of time, that the affair was perfectly straight, and that if he would only be patient a little longer the position would come.During this time Marchand was examined by the police surgeon.He was measured, and found to be of a stature sufficiently large to maintain peace in face of a dering burg- far, and his constitution was also satisfactory.When a few months of anxious and patient waiting had passed away, Mar- cdhand became impatient and said that the job must be got or he must get his money back.It had been understood beforehand that Marchand was not supposed to know that money had been paid for getting the Job.No; he was to get the job for the asking.Marchand finally became very impatient, and threatened to tell the whole story if he did not get the job or his money back immediately.| Things took such a turn that Marchand had little hope of being made a policeman, and bo his entreaties were added Mrs.Marchand\u2019s, to have his money returned.Harassed by the woman\u2019s continued solicitation, Maraoux withdrew the $150 from the Jacques Cartier Bank and returned it to Mrs.Marchand.In the week following the return of the $150, Marcoux came to Marchand and said that the position was now ready, and that if he wanted it he could have it, provided, of course, that he would pay the $150.But Marchand\u2019s ambition to be a city police NO.272, MONTREAL.FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1898.PRICE ONE CENT 3 as Having Lockjaw.man had vanished, and he refused th offer.Now, Mr.Marcoux had a great desire that Marchand should accept the position, for, besides the $150 which Marchand would pay, and which he said was to be divided with his aldermanic friend, there was a fine horse which had been offered him for nothing.But Mr.Marchand refused to accept the position and returned to laprairie in May.The horse which had been given to Marcoux was not paid for, Marchand had not got a position on the force, and Mr.Normandin wanted to get his horse back or his money for it.Just at this point Mr.Marcoux differed from Mr.Nor mandin regarding the return of the horse.lHe claimed that he had obtained a job on the police force for Marchand, and that his part of the contract had been filled.Mr.Normandin insisted on the return of the horse or the payment of $50, so to save an exposure and to gain time Marcoux gave Mr.Normandin a Trote for $40 endorsed by A.Bissonnette Time passed by, and the note became due.When it was presented, Marcoux still refused to pay it in cash, and after a lot of dilly-dallying he discovered the following ingenious scheme to meet the obligation: There was no doubt that the note nad to be paid, or the story of the $150 transaction would be brought to light.Marcoux went to bis aldermanic friend and stated his case.The alderman found it the simplest thing in the world to make a settlement.There was a horse in the stables of the Health Department which was ill.The horse was examined by Dr.Leduc, who condemned it as incurable.When a horse is found to be euffering from an incurable disease it is shot.But not this horse.Mr.Marcoux came to the department ana said that he would take the horse and try to have it cured by a certain doctor in the country.The horse had been condemned; the horse was given to Mr.\u201c Marcoux, and Mr.Marcoux gave it to Mr.Normandin.This took place in the first days of October of this year.This horse, however, was lazy and sickly, and Mr.Normandin would not accept it in payment of the note, The thing had to come to a head, and the alderman was again called upon.About three weeks ago, on the 21st of October, another horse, was pronounced by Dr.Leduc to (be suffering with lock-jaw, inour- able, and was, like the first one, handed over to Mr.Marcoux and by Marcoux to Mr.Normandin.To-day what horse is 1n a perfeat condition of health, and to-day also the alderman and his clique wart to buy the horses back, They have wib:ch a short time ago they had given away in forced payment of a promissory note for $40.TEBRIBLE DISEASE OF LOCKJAW The story of how Mr.Marcoux managed to get the horses from the Health Department stables to Mr.Normandin is not less interesting than that we have already told, and it corroborates, moreover, in many essential points the statements printed above.Mr.Marcoux, as he claimed, is a very intimate friend of the alderman already referred to.He is also on good terms with the employes of the Health Department stables in Rockledge Park.The Health Department have a veterinary surgeon, in the person of Dr.Leduc, to whom they pay $300 a year for giving the necessary attendance to tne horses of the him de- department.Upon volves the duty of ordering the destruc- | tton of horses that he pronounces incurable.One of the diseases most frequently met with among the department horses is lockjaw, which is usually caused by the horses stepping upon rusty nails.to its pecwiar nature, the disease is invariably incurable, and if the horses happen to be of small value they are frequently destroyed avithout making much effort to save them.In this case \u201clockjaw\u201d served Mr.Marcoux\u2019 purpose admirably.We do not allege tirat the veteznary surgeon did more than make a mistake in his diagnosis.Mr.Normandin had been pressing for the payment of the horse which Marcoux owed him for.The money was not forthcoming, and signs of a coming storm were discerned by those who had most reason to fear it.A way must be had out ot the difficulty.Mr.Normandin avas possessed of some veterinary skill, and it was | suggested to him by Marcoux that he should be given a sick horse from the corporation stables, whih Mr.Normandin might keep if he cured it.In a few days the \u201csick\u201d horse changed owners, going over to Laprairie to Mr.Normandin\u2019s stables.But Mr.Normandin was mot satisfied.This was the reason a second horse from J the Health Department stables, valued at iE POLICE FORCE A Laprairie Man Made the Bargain and Got Tired Waiting\u2014To Settle the Matter Finally He Was Given a Horse frow the Civic Stables Which Was Condemned.Owing | about $125, was given to him on October Jet, ENGINEER DORE'S STORY.Sanitary Engineer Dore gave to The Herald the following explanation of the transaction as far as the knew of it.The first horse, he said.had been taken out of the stables without his knowledge.He knew nothing of it until a week or ten days afterwards, when one of the stablemen told him that the horse had been condemmed by Dr.Ledue and destroyed.On the morning of October 20tn ed that two horses had been condemned by Dr.Leduc as incurable with lockjaw.He (Marcoux) had a friend who professed to be able to cure lock- Jaw.Ald.Prenoveau, chairman of the Health Committee, had told him that he could take ome of these horses to | his friend if Mr.Dore comsented.Mr.Dore says that he told Marcoux that it Dr.Leduc had pronounced the horses as incurable, he saw no objection to Marcoux taking one of them.After Marcoux left the office Mr.Dore thought dt would be well to drive up to the stables and see the horses.He did so, and saw one of them suffering from lock- paw in an aggravated form.He consent ed to its destruction.\u201che other horse, while apparently ill, was on its feet, and showed no signs of anything serious.He instructed the stableman not to allow that horse to be taken from the stables.The next day Marcoux came to the stables ard took the horse away, in spite of protests made by employes who had heard Mr.Dore\u2019s instructions of the previous day.Mr.Dore was informed by telephone, that Marcoux had taken the horse.He at once communicated with Dr.Leduc and demanded of him a certificate showing why the horses were given away.The following is a copy of the letter, dated Oct, 22, 1898, that Engineer Dore now holds: \u201cDear Sir,\u2014Having been called to the stables IT found two horses suffering from lockjaw.After the usual treatment I came to the conclusion that they should be killed.Another one was ill with \u2018javart encourrue,\u201d and as it was of small value, I recommened that he should follow the same course as the other two.\u201d Louis Leduc, D.M.V., DVS.The last-mentioned horse, spoken of as taken two weeks previously without Mr Dore\u2019s knowledge.As it has transpired the horse that Mr.Dore said was not to he taken from the stable had nothing more serious than an imvurity of the blood that was so easilv cured that the horse was eating well the second dav after it was taren to Mr.Normandin\u2019s.The one horse that had a geniune case of lockiaw was given to Mr.Lesage, the city contractor for dead animals, and disposed of in the usual way.Mr.Lesave and as he got only one he instituted enquiries.He learned that the second horse went to Mr.Normandin\u2019s, and it is sail that he went there and saw it and told Mr.Normandin it was worth $125.At least this is what Ald.Ouimet has stated, and it was upon the representations of Mr.Lesage that Ald.Ouimet took the matter VD and asked the Health Committee for an investigation, which investigation is now under way._ In conmection with the above statement it should be added that the horse given to Marcoux was mot the property of Mr.Nor- mandin, but of one of his sons-in-law.in whose name the note was made out.This note was dated Sept.10th.1897, (after deal for the place on the force had fallen through) and read as follows: \u2018Laprairie, Sept.1, 1897.\u201d

meeting of shureholders assembled yesterday at the ofiice of the Royal Electric Company, in Quuen street, to ab tend a special meeting, the majority of whom were in favor of the policy advocated by Col.Strathy, to issue ordinary stock at par omly, and a minority of whom were infavor of the policy of the other direcors, which was to issue additional bonds as well as stock.Amongst the shareholders present were the following: A.Brumet, Geo.Caverhill, A.C.Clark, Robt.Cowans, Selkirk Cross, C.S.Campbell, John Date, J.Try Davies, 1.J.Forget & Co., Pavl Galiberte, Hugh Graham, Chas, Handyside, Edwin Hanson, J.A.Hawthorne, H.S.Holt, J.M.Mec- Intyre, A.R.Macdonell, A.¥.McPherson, Chas.Meredith, Wm.Miller, John Morrison, W.F.Robertson, J.T.Ross, H.C.Reott, E.W.Strathy, H.G.Strathy, Lt.- Col.Strathy, Jas.Wilson, Hon.J.R.Thi- baudeau, Dacid Morrice, F.L.Beique.The president read the notice calling the meeting, and then read the by-law suggested by the board of directors, with the exception of Col.Strathy.who dissented from it.Mr.Holt (president of the Gas Company) spoke at some length urging i economy, and the difficulties that might \"surround the company, when it would be compelled to place its wires under ground.Mr.Browne, manager, spoke in a murh more depressing strain, than he usually speaks to the shareholders at the annual meeting, and Mr.Hanson addressed the shareholders at length, endeavoring to point out inaccuracies in the cireular issued by some of the shareholders on the 7th of November, 1898, and generally in a strain that would lead the shareholders to believe that the future profits of the company were likely to be very small.This was replied to by Mr.Chas.Meredith and Col.Strathy, who showed from the published statements of the compan], that the figures alluded to were quite correct.Colonel Strathy snoke in favor of the policy of issuing ordinary stock at part to the present shareholders, and this policy only.Referring to raising money upon a loan by means of pledging a further issue of bonds as security for it he said: \u201cThe saving in interest by the method of issuing bonds, for that purpose would not be very great, as Between commissions, charges and exchange on placing the bonds in England, the rate of interest alone would cost the company nearer 5 per cent.than 4 per cent, and at present the company can borrow ail the money it requires for its floating liabilities from its own bankers at 6 per cent.The margin of saving in interest is so very small, it seems to me that, when we require to get money from banks, it is better policy for the company to get Lit froin our own banks in Montreal than to leave our Montreal banks in favor of banks in England.I therefore strongy urge the shareholders to vote for no other policy than that of an issue of ordinary stock at par to the present shareholders of the Royal Electric Co., which, they are very ready to provide, for any additional capital that the business of the Royal Electric Co.may require.\u201d (Hear, hear.) The meeting lasted from 3 o'clock until half-past six, and was addressed at wvari- ous times, besides those already mentioned, by Mr.Marler, Forget, G.Strathy, Mor- rice, Beique, Morrison, Wilson, Caverhill, Smithers and others.A compromise was suggested, but the bulk of the shareholders were indisposed to accept any compromise, and a vote was called for.Messrs, Rudo'ph Forget and James Wilson were appointed scrutineers.A direct Vote was asked to be taken, which resulted as fol- ows: Those in favor of the policy advo- cated by Qol.Strathy .6,612 Those in favor of the policy advocated by the other directors.5,680 Maiority against the directors .932 The total vote cast was 12,292, Of this vote 8,218, or two-thirds of the total vote, was required to carry the by-law.The directors had 5,680 votes, which deducted from 8,218 votes required by the directors, their proposed by-law was defeated by 2,538.(Directors\u2019 letter on Page 2.) \"hood of Railroad Trainmen, and the Or- sn aie der of

organized labor throughout the country will express its disapproval of such action.Be it further Resolved, That if the bill is not made effective in the interests of the masses instead of the classes,

made by two convicts to escape from the peuitentiary about 8 o\u2019clock this morning, as a result of which Charles B.Lauterbaugh, of Mount Vernon, was shot and killed, while Convicts O\u2019Neil and Atkinson received injuries of a serious nature, and both are now in the prison hospital.By some means Convicts O'Neill and Atkinson, who are serving fifteen years each for robbery committed in Cleveland, obtained possession of a revolver, and proceeded to carry out a bold plan to escape.handkerchief and went into the broom shop, where he held up Guard Lime and took his revolver.He then returned to the hoe shop, where the other man joined him, and they opened fire on Guar Lauterbaugh, who was in cheqye of that department.Then guard was shot three times, and almost instantly killed.The sound of the shooting reached the other officials in the prison, and they came on the run to investigate.Guard Gump was the first on the scene, and, taking in the situation at a glance, opened fire on the two prisoners.This was returned, and a regular battle was in progress until the revolvers of the participants were emptied.In the fray Convict Atkinson was shot down and seriously injured, and as soon as the guns were emptied Guard Gump rushed in with his cane and almost beat O'Neil to death before the prisoner would surrender.\"The other prisoners in the shop where the shooting occurred took no part in the affair, but it is understood that they stood ready to follow if the efforts of the two leaders proved successful.Previous to making the outbreak, one of the two prisoners forced a third man to place a ladder against the outside of the penitentiary wall, so that when they had fought their way out of the shop they could shoot down the wall guard and make their escape by that route.Recital at the Pratte Parlors, On Wednesday evening a fashionable and large audience was present at the Pratte Piano Parlors, on St.Catherine Street, to enjoy one of the most

value of the stock in hand at | one time was from $30 to $50, and the sales amounted to from $3 to $5 on weck- days and $10 to $20 on Sundays.The rent of the fan-tan tables would bring him in two or three dollars a day.The Judge elicited from the witness an admission that the tables were put in by a former tenant for the use of the boarders, but he kept them for the use of fan- tan players.He was in possession of the house.There was no lottery carried on in rt.This closed the case for the defence, and Song Sing was recalled in rebuttal.He denied a statement made by the accused that he denounced him to the police because he refused to lend witness 820.Questioned by the judge as to the wccouuts kept on bits of paper, he reiterated that they were gaming accounts.Hum Quin was called by Mr.St.Picrre to upget this witness, after which the counsel on both sides addressed {he jury.Pierre Polito, against whom a true hili for perjury was returned by the grand.jury, has been out on bail,

Enquete in the A ction for Criminal Libel Commenced This Afternoon-Great Public Interest.The enquete in the case of Chief of Police Hughes against Mr.J.S.Brierley, roanaging director of The Herald, began at two o'clock this afternoon in the Enquete Room of the Police Court, before Magistrate Lafontaine.There was a large attendance of newspaper men, lawyers, civic officials and citizens, Mr.J.N.Greenshields, Q.C., appeared for Mr.Brierley, and Mr, C.A.Cornellier, Q.C., for Chief Hughes.The evidence of Chief Hughes will be taken this afternoom.The case is exciting great public interest, not only in Montreal, but in many Canadian cities, where The Herald\u2019s articles on civic affairs have been read and favorably commented upon.Here is an instance, from the Ottawa Journal: \u2014 \u201cTn Montreal The Herald has several libel suits taken against it.Among the complainants are Chief of Police Hughes and Water Superintendent Laforest.The Herald expresses its readiness to go into court to maintain its statements, \u201cSo far as can be judged from what The [Herald and other papers have published, a thoroughly rotten condition of affairs as prevailed in at least the civic waterworks department.The Herald\u2019s assertions have not been abusive; it has confined itself to publishing what seem to be facts, and making moderate comments thereon.If half the apparent faots it has published be true, it might justly have gone further in its deductions and criticisms than it has, and one or two prominent, Montreal civic officials ought to be in gaol.\u201cLibel suits are a nasty business for a newspaper abt best; they are expensive whether won or lost: they are particularly nasty in Quebec, where the libel las is t unfair to newspapers, and the juries sometimes more uncertain quantities than they should be.If the Montreal Herald be wrong in the present case, it will suffer |noueh and rightly.If it be right, its geod work will deserve a very hearty ap- | breciation from the public, for although the result will be a great public gain, it will be lost momey all the same to The Herald.\u201d \u2014\u2014 > 0° ® ee THIS AGENT COULDN'T MAKE A SALE.© © ® ©

Conduct.neem.STARTING A LABOR PAPER, pr IT.The regular fortnightly meeting of the Federated 'I'rades and Labor Council was held last evening.À proposition was read fron Mr.C.McCoy asking the co-operation of the council in starting a labor paper.\u2018It was granted on certain conditions.COOP SPP HHHOOOH : © A resolution was passed requesting the City Council not to grant a renewal of the franchise to the Incline Railway Company, and further declaring it to be to the best interests of the city to purchase said railway, as it was contended that the city could furnish better accommodation, and also reduce the fares, so that the poorer classes could enjoy more of the mountain than is now thacase.A recommendation was included that transfers be secured from the street railway to the top of the mountain.DOSGSSOSSOTHSO$ 0\u20ac » OO HDPHC 1 EH %-© À resolution was passed condemning the action of the Canadian Government In not enforcing the alien labor law, Charges having been made by the officers of the council against the Central Trade and Labor Council, and «gainst its president, Mr.Fitzpatrick, in particular, in regard to his non-union conduct on Labor Day, and these havirig been taken cogliizance of by Moulders\u2019 Union, No.21,\" which appointed a committee to investigate them, the committee reported as follows: \u2014 \u201cThe dharge that the Labor Day programme was printed in a non-union office was proven, but Mr.Fitzpatrick contended that he went to three ditferent oftices, and the first one asked $750 for 1,000 programmes, the second $500, and the \u2018third $400.To the latter he offered $330, and finally got it for $240.He said he thought there were some union men working in the latter office.Anyhow, he thought the printers were making too much money.\u201cThe charge of not selling blue label (union) cigars on the Exhibition grounds Was found to be not proven, as, although Mr.Fitzpatrick threatened to not allow union-made cigars to be sold on the grounds, he never carried out the threat, \u201cOn the charge of hiring non-union music, the committee found it proven, but Mr.Fitzpatriek said in explanation that he was given to understand tft the Musicians\u2019 Union was composed of only a few bandmasters, and that the rank and file did not count, and therefore thought best to engage a band from St.Hyacinthe, which, he said, was composed of union lasters and shoemakers.But the committee found that, evem if they were union men, they certainly were not members of the Musicians\u2019 Union, and should therefore be considered as non- unionists.The committee further foung that there were 170 members in good standing in Musicians\u2019 Union, No.62.Mr.Fitzpatrick also stated that the musicians wanted too much, having charged $190 in 1896 and 80 in 1897.He thought they should play for nothing on Labor Day.The charge of advertising Tion- union cigars on the Labor Day programme was also proven.On the charge of importing scab goods, Mr.Fitzpatrick said he had had no knowledge of any crooked work going on.On the whole, the committee condemned the actions of Mr.Fitzpatrick and the Central \u2018I'rades and Labor Council, and recommended that that Moulders\u2019 Union withdraw from the Central Trade and Labor Council, FRENCH SHORE QUESTION It is Engaging a Good Deal of Attention Since

Committee.The various committees at the City Hall will take up the consideration of their es- turates for the coming year at an early date.A request was made upon them by the Finance Committee

Treasurer will also be asked for a statement of the available re- vesue for 18949.His Worship the Mayor, on behalf of Mr.J.Lawlor Woods, who was present, and who is representing a Toronto publishing

afterwards Mr.Wood himself, that the work had received the endorsation of the Department of The Interior at Ottawa, and also the several previncial governments.Each of the cities and provinces would.prepare the letterpress, and all the publishers asked was the price of the cuts ($50 ecah), which would barely cover the expense of getting them up.In reply to the Mayor, Mr.Woods said that Toronto would supply some twenty illustrations, and the city of Quebec, probably about fifteen.The Mayor said that all that was asked of the committee at present was to sanction the scheme.It was, however, important that the preparation of the his tory of Montreal should be commenced at gnee, and if the matter was left in his hands he would see that the work was commenced at once.The committee agreed to the suggestion of the Mayor in regard to the letterpress, the question of the cuts being left over until a future meeting.Mr.Edmond Guerin, advocate, appeared on behalf of Mr.Michael Guerin,

.)\u2014Judze McDougall yesterday gave a decision in favor of the city on one.af the most important assessment appeals heard in Toronto in mamy years.The appeal vas that of the Supreme Court of Ontario ogainst an assessment of half a million dollars on invested trust funds.In addition to upholding the city\u2019s assessment HOYAL ELECTRIC, rome (Continued from page 1.) \u201cTo the sharelvolders of the Royal Elec- trie Co, in meeting assembled on the 17th November, 1828 :\u2014 i \u201cGentlemen, \u2014For the sake of brevity and clearness, we submit our views as follows : \u201cYou have already been made aware that the continuous growth of the company\u2019s business necessitates large and cen- stantly increasing capital, both working and permanent; the former mainly tor ine manutactuiing, the latter in all the departments.Your company being the largest users of electrical ajparutus in the Dominion, is thereby an important consumer of the products of its factory; end the profits realized from that branch of 118 business help materially in paying dividends on a larger amount of capital, and in increasing the balance to the credit of rrofit and loss.\u201cIhe several hundreds of thousands of dollars yearly paid in wages and in purchase of material for that department necessarily contribute in no small measure to secure the support of the public.\u201cThe company has realized fair profite, not, however, 18 per cent., or 16 per cent., during the last two years, as inaccurately stated in the circular issued on the 7th instant, these percentages having been arrived at by ignoring several importing ttems charged to profit and loss account.\u201cWe must not, however, let ourselves be carried away by the percentages realized in recent years, nor overlook the fact that the increased profits of 1898 were due largely to the advantageous contract (some $350,000) which was obtained from the Chambly Manufaoluring Company, without wwompetition, on account of the faith we had in our own apparatus, and cause several members of the board happened to be interested in that company.\u201cWithout anticipating excessive profits, we have unlimited faith in the future of the company, conditional, however, upon its affairs being conducted in a prudent and comservative way, provision being con- tinwouslv made for improvements in its plant, betterments and extension of its system, and for all .contingencies.\u201cIt seems to us that the shareholders | \u201c possible.| considerably at different times, Hon.J.J.Guerin, who have claims against : °¢ idle have reason to be satisfied with the policy of the company, which has enabled it to maintain the regular eight per cent.dividend, and that it would be unwise to imperil sudh dividend being continued.\u201cThe history of kindred companies shows that a very large number of them have been entirely wrecked or have had their stocks depreciated for want of due oresight and caution.\u201cHaving in respect of lighting and power to meet competition, our policy should be to await developments, and in the meantime strengthen the company as much as In followamg this course, we are satisfied that whatever may be the success of our comretitors, vour company will not be seriously affected.\u201cIf, on the other hand, competition proves ineffectual, vou will have lost nothing by having followed a conservative course; the capital stock can then be as fully increased as the position of the company mmy warrant.\u201cApart from the fact that the workin g capital required far the factory varies and would part of the year if in the form ot permanent capital, vou will readily perceive the importance of procuning it at the lowest possible rate of interest.It will enable the company to meet cases of extreme competition with some margin ot profits, and.by means.of the advertisement resulting from increased sales, to command a larger share of the more profitable business.\u201cFor these reasons we recommended to the previous meeting the issuing of a small amount of preference stock, which was to pay only 4 per cent.dividends, and intended to be used only as security for a yearly loan arranged for at 414 per cent.interest.\u201cI'he operation would have led to the establishment of financial relations with one cf the strongest British banks, which we thought would be of great advantage to the company.\u201cThat course was not incompatible with the issuing of additional common stock to the shareholders at an appropriate time.\u201cNothing \u2018that passed at the meeting or since has changed .our - opinion, but there \u2018being only some 8,717 shares represented, whereas the charter requires In such case 12,000 shares to constitute a quorum, no action was taken.Co \u201cI'he necessary representation for the authorization of preference stock being diflicult to procure; we have.decided to suggest the issuing of both common stock and bonds.\u201cWe hope it will not be cohsidered out > on these funds, His Honor decided that .the assessment should be increased to the amounts of money held in trust by Mr.Holmstead, but not invested in any securities.If this is done it will increase the assessment to nearly one million doilars.The Emperor Has Sailed.Berlin, Nov.18.\u2014An official telegram received here from Valetta, Island of Malta, says the Emperor and Bmpress of (jer.many have sailéd for Pola at the northern from which port they will travel overland direct for home.It is explained that the Emperor decided ; upon this course because the temperature of the Mediterranean has become considerably cooler, and the danger to the health of the Empress by a sudden cange from a northern to a southern climate is thus lessened.4 Yale President Resigns.New Haven, Conn., Nov.18.\u2014At the meeting of the Corporation of Yale University late yesterday afternoon, Presiden: Timothy Dwight presented his resignation.The

Nov.18\u2014(Special.)\u2014The fune- rai of the late Mr.Wm.Lunness, the cattle dealer who was killed in the ÊTR.collision near Trenton on Tuesday morning, while returning home from Montreal, took place yesterday afternoon, of place if we add that we have at all times given to the company\u2019s affairs our best attention and careful study of its requirements.Our interest and yours are common, and we sincerely hope that our suggestions, as embodied in the bylaw, which will presently be submitted fcr your approval, will receive your favorable consideration.\u201cJ.R.Thibaudeau, \u201cPresident.\u201cMontreal, November 17th, 1898.\u201d The following was the proposed by-law referred to in the above statement: \u2014 \u201c1.The capital stock of the Royal Elec- \u2018trie Company is hereby increased from $1,500,000 to $1,750,000, and such increase or new stock shall be divided into 2,300 .shares of the nominal value of $100 each, ; books on the evening of | cent.per annum, and shall be offered to the shareholdars who will be of record on the company\u2019s the 30th November, 1868.\u201c2.Loans may be effected from time to time in such sums and for such periods of time as the directors may deem expedient, by the issue of mortgage or hypothecary bonds or debentures to an amount not exceeding in the aggregate, including all bonds at present outstanding, 75 per cent.of the paid-up capital stock of the company.\u201c3.Such bonds or debentures shall bear a rate of interest not exceeding 4 per payable semi-annually, and the directors of the company may execute the same in the form, and may sell or pledge and issue them upon such terms and at such times, as they in their discretion shall think proper.\u201d Opinions were expressed both in favor of and against the proposed by-law.Those opposing it desired to have common stock issued in favor of the shareholders at par.The board of directors and management considered that they should proceed a little more prudently, and should have the opportunity or power to obtain working money at a less rate of cost for interest than would be the case if it were had in stock.When the vote was taken, the proposed by-law was negatived by 932 shares.Quite a number of shares were absent, and a great many were represented by proxy, including several who were known to be opposed to the proposal of the directors.He Can't Be Mayor Now.Toronto, Ont., Nov.18\u2014Judge \u2018Mac- Dougall yesterday morning granted the motion to strike the name of E.A.Mae- Donald off the assessment rolls as owner of a

(Atlantic), timber and deal charter, 1898-99,\u201d that 18 being attempted to force upon the trade, do concur in a resolution passed at a meetimz in London on the 28th ultimo, wonvened by the Timber Trade Federation, and held at London Chamber of Com- | merce, which resolution reads as follows: \u2014\u201cThat this meeting, having considered the proposed new British North America charter, formulated by the Chamber of Shipping, and having regard to the unanimous objections of the trade in all parts of the Kingdom to dbs provisions, cannot .advise members of the federation to attend the conference called by the Chamber of Shipping for November 2nd, 1893.The meeting further considers that, in view of the abortive result of the prolonged negotiations with the Chamber of Shipping respecting the Baltic charter, such .on- ference on the basis of the form now submitted could not lead to any satisfactory arrangements being arrived at, the trade being satisfied that the terms embodied in the London Chamber of Commerce and similar forms mow generally in use, are fair and reasonable for both parties.\u201d The secretary was then instructed to send a copy of this resolution to the trade in St.John, N.B., inviting them to take ç 1 mother\u2019s medicine.What distress and anguish come to the mother when her little one wakes up at night with a nasty croupy cough.Wise

this Anglo-American friendship.In the course of the speech he sketched the proposed large scheme of improving the home defences by providing a new type of guns which would require a smaller number.He

Hours, Minimum Wage and Small Grievances Redressed, | G.T.R.IS CONCILIATORY, The Company Think the Organization Wants to Show its, Teeth.ems Ts FAIR CONSIDERATION PROMISED.ttn, The time is mow considered opportune for a clear and comprehensive statement of the position taken up and the claims advanced by the telegraphists of the Grand Trunk Railway, whose representatives have been in consultation for about a month with respect to the grievances of which they seek to obtain redress from the company by whom they are employed.The representatives are nine in number, and they have taken up their headquarters at the Richelieu Hotel, where they have a large room fitted up as an office, with elaborate equipment of desks, peus and \u2018notepaper, \u2018with the printed headlines of the Order of Railroad Telegraphists to which they belong.There 1s a thoroughly business-like air about the room, and, so far as outward appearances go, there is every indication that a good many more weeks will elapse before the work which has brought them here is completed.The committeee of nine represent every section of the Grand T'runk Railway, from Portland, Me., in the east, to Detroit and Port Huron in the west.The Chicago and Grand Trunk, the American line of the company, is not represented, for the gooa and sufficient reason \u2018that the telegraphers in that territory have obtained ail that the delegates now in Montreal are asking for.Up to the present the men have kept their counsels well, and they now secrecy by stating that they have been suspected of being engaged in some sort of conspiracy against the company.This is, of course, absurd.Their negotiations with the company have been conducted in an amicable and pleasant manner on both sid~s, and the contingency of anything in the nature of a strike is so very small as to be practically out of the ques tion.\"That the matters under discussion will be satisfactorily adjusted is the firm velief of every member of the committee.Fheir demands have been drawn up and submitted to Mr.Hays, the general manager, and at his request they will be presented to the superintendent of the various sections of the system.What do the telegraphers really want?That is a question that has puzzled a good many people during the last few weeks.Their claims, according to their own estimate and version of them, are eminently fair and reasonable, but when did a labor organization ever formulate a demand from employes that was not, in their own opinion, fair and reasonable?\u201cWe want to level upward,\u201d remarked a member of the committee.\u201cWe want to get what has been conceded to, telegraphers by the Canadian Pacific and by practically every road on the am erican continent and Great Britain.V at is asked for is uniformity of conditions 0 service, uniformity of rules and regulations, and uniformity in the character of employment throughout the entire system.The men want a uniform working day of twelve hours and a uniform rate o wages.The question of a minimum wage has not yet come up for discussion, it is reserver for some future day, but it is being considered.It is contended that the hours telegraphers have now to work are too long; that in many cases their working day consists of eighteen hours and that even in the six hours they are off duty their short period of rest is liable to interruption by inexorable demands made upon them.In their own interests and in the interests of the public this well- might nto'erable strain of long hours ought, they say, to be put an end to.The men have also a number of small grievances for which they seek to obtain redress.Amongst them is the switch lamp question.Tele graphists are required, especially if they should happen to be station agents, to walk in many cases half a mile to light or extinguish a lamp at night.This, they argue, is work that ought to be done by a porter and mot a telegraphist.They are required to perform menial tasks at the stations, such ag scrubbing out the offices, cleaning the lamps and even the cattle trenches and to do the hundred little odd jobs that ought to be performel by workmen.Matters, they say, were bad enough in the old days when Sir Henry Tyler was president; but in the regime of Sir Rivers Wilson they have become infinitely worse.At stations where the agent had a telegraphist and a porter to assist him the former has to do the work of the three without additional remuneration, while other roads have improved the conditions of service, the Grand Trunk has taken a big retrograde step and, bad as things were before, they are mow a great deal worse.In cases where formerly there was one man on duty at night and another on the day the day man has to do the whole and he is denied the opportunity of continuous rest and is thus unfitted by the fatigue engendered by the long hours for the proper discharge of his responsible duties.When in addition to this he has to clean the lamps and shovel the snow and light the fires his lot is very bad indeed.The telegraphists on the Grand Trunk, who are represented by the committee, number upwards of 1,000.They are members of the International Order of Railroad Te'egraphers, a body about 15,000 gtrong,and they are affiliated with the Federation of Railway Employes, which has a membership of upwards of 150,000.The telegraphists have thus the oral force of this organization behind them.This fact they think strengthens their position enormously in dealing with the company.The officials of the Grand Trunk appear to be confident that the differences wit} the telegraphists will be amicably settled.They point out, however, that it is impossible to grant all they ask for in the case.of small branch lines, over which only one or two trains a day are run, the intervals may be long between the trains but the duties are light.During the greater part of the day the telegraphists have practically nothing to do.Their grievances in many cases are more imaginary than real.The telegraphists are agitating for the conditions of service which have been conceded in the case of the Canadian Pacific.Now that they have their union, they feel themselves stronger than they were.Having got their teeth, they want to show that they can bite, Under the new regime economies have been effected wherever possible, and as these in some cases have meant additional work for the telegraphists and station agents, they are not popular.The management has the shareholders as well ad employes to consider, (but there is no reason to doubt that in the present case the men\u2019s representatives will receive fair and just consideration.To Seek Canada\u2019s Aid.Kingston, Jamaica, Nov.18.\u2014Disap- pointment has been occasioned here by a despatch from Washington announcing, the failure of the negotiations for the justify a departure from their policy of proposed \u201cAnglo-American treaty for the \\West lndies.Burke, leader of the \u2018\u2019popular\u201d side in the Legislature, in an interview on this matter, says:\u2014 .\u201cI'he question arises, if the West Indies cannot obtain American reciprocity now, of countervailing duties in the home markets, as the only alternative to ruin which is left us.But this is a denlorably insutlicient one, and the question of Canadian annexation of Jamaica must there | fore arise and be agitated as it never has heretofore, with the view of compelling further action.\u201d \u2014\u2014\u2014 MISSION BURNED.Christian Ministers in the Far Fast reciprocity | >> Celestials.Shanghai, Nov.18.\u2014The rebels have attacked and looted the town of Kwei-Fu, in the upper Yang-Tse-Kiang valley, and \u2018have burned the Catholic mission there.No further details are obtainable at present.Cincinnati, Ohio, Nov.18\u2014Private letters from Bishop Farl Cranston, of the Methodist Episcopal Church, to Rev.D.H.Moore, of the Western Christian Advocate, of this city, tells of the mobbing of the family of the bistop and of Rev.Dr.Lowry, missionary, in the streets of Pekin, China, September 30th.The attack was made with mud, sticks and stones, by the mob gathered to celebrate the first feast day since the Empress Dowager had taken the power from the Emperor.\u2018The families were going to and from the railway station in chairs and cants, and were abtacked by the hali- Trenzied Chinamen.Dr.Lowry made a brave resistance, and sucoeeded in getting the women and children to a place of safety, though he suffered a broken rib.The same indignities were offered to all other foreigners.Representations have been made to the Chinese Government by the American Minister at Pekin, THE NEGRO RACE WAR.White People who Murdered the Blacks at Wilmington Will Probably Be Prosecuted.Washington, D.C., Nov.18.\u2014Up to this time no definite plans with respect to the prosecution of the participants in the riotous proceedings at Wilmington, N.C., against J.W.Tolbert, have been decided upon.The fact that Tolbert is the assistant post-master at McCormick, and not the postmaster, may have an important bearing on the case.Assistants to fourth-class postmasters are not recognized by the law as officers of the Government, they being appointed and\u2019 paid by the postmasters.Assistant United States Attorney Cochran from the Tolbert district has been ordered to Washington for conferences with the officials of the Department of Justice and upon lds arrival here to-morrow_the whole South Carolina situation will be gone over and a line of action decided upon.The case of R.H.Dunning, United States commissioner at Wilmington, N.C., is said to present none of the difficu\u2019ties which have appeared in the Tolbert case, and it is thought that structions will soon be given the United States Attorncy there to make an investigation of the facts with a view of beginning proceedings.FOR THE BLIND, The Annual Banquet in Aid of the Nazareth Asylum Will Be Held Next Wednesday.The annual batiquet promoted by the lady patronesses of the Nazareth Asyhiga for the Blind, will take \u2018place in the hail of the asylum next \\Vednesday evening at seven o'clock.The institution has to depend entirely on the generosity of its friends, as it has no fixed revenue from which to meet the very heavy expenses of maintenance.\"Lhe majority of the blind children in the asylum come from the poorer classes, and their friends are unable to contribute ito their support.\u2018he annual banquet was organized by the ladies\u2019 committee to increase their funds and enable them to extend their work, and they extend an invitation to the benevolent public to assist them by their presence and sympathy next Wednesday evening.More Territory for Germany.Berlin, Nov.18.\u2014A move evidently is on foot by Germany to acquire the Portuguese colony of Angola on the west coast of Africa.According to the colonial year book, Angola is on the brink of economic disaster, and should revert to a strong power.The book adds that the general collapse ci the Portuguese empire is only a question of months.England is not expected to interefere in such an acqusition by Germany.In return it is proposed to cede to England a strip of territory along Lake Tanganyik, which lies just east of the Con- gs State, on the south coast of Africa.This jugg'ing of territory would allow England to realize her dream of a Britsh Africa extending from Cairo to the Cape.Miner's Body Brought Back, Mattawa, Ont., Nov.18\u2014The body of Mr.Edward Miner, of Kingsville, arrived here late last evening from Kippewa.He was accidentally shot by his brother-in-law while out moose hunting some twenty-five miles north of Kippewa.Mr.Miner never moved from his place after being shot, the ball being from a large Winchester rifle and taking effect in the head.The remains were properly laid out here, and conveyed to the C.P.R.station by the Odd- fellows, the deceased being a member of said order.Ÿ - A PECULIAR REMEDY.Something About the New Discover« for Curing Dyspepsia.The Rev.¥.I.Bell, a highly esteemed minister residing in Weedsport, Cayuga Co, N.Y., in a recent letter writes as follows: \u2018There has never been anything that 1 have taken that has relieved the Dyspepsia from which I have suffered for ten years except the new remedy called Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.Since taking them 1 have had no distress at all after eating, and again after long years can sleep well.Rev.If.I.Bell, Weedsport, N.Y, formerly ldalia, Colo.Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is a remarkable remedy, not only because it is a certain cure for all forms of indigestion, but because it seems to act as thoroughly in old chronic cases of dyspepsia as well as in mild attacks of indigestion or biliousness.A person has dyspepsia simply because the stomach is overworked; all it wants is a harmless, vegetable remedy to digest the food and thus give it the much- necded rest.This is the secret of the success of this peculiar remedy.No matter how weak or how much disordered the digestion may be, Stuart\u2019s Dyspepsia Tablets will digest the food whether the stomach works or not.New life and energy is given not only to the stomach, but to every organ and nerve in the body.trial of this splendid medicine will con: vince the most skeptical that Dyspepsia and all stomach troubles can be cured.The tablets are prepared by the F.A.Stuart Co., of Marshall, Mich., but so popular has the remedy become that Stuart\u2019s Dyspepsia Tablets can now obtained at any drug store at 30 cents per package.Send for book on stomach diseases free.Suffer Further Indignities From the ; 22 2% 9% 20% 4% : $ re x inter purchaser, CUSTOM romers.prices.no cheaper store in Mon'real.,

plague has made its appearance in the civic stables.Valuable horses in the Health Department iteelf have been afflicted with lockjaw.A horse suffering from lock-jaw is of no mse for anything but glue and lindred compounds.And yet, according to the certificate forwarded by a veterinary, as described clsewhere, two of these poor beasts in ome stable were so affected.It is to be hoped no scaptic will seek to minimize the danger to be apprehended from this visitation merely because it turns out that only one of the horses appears to have been killed and that the other\u2014although condemned to death\u2014 is pacing the streets of Laprairie, all unconscious of its terrible fate, and consuming its provender in quantities and with a regularity not to be exceeded if it were in the best of health, If it had its desert it would be going about labelled \u2018glue, warranted to stick in any climate.\u201d This horse, and another, its companion in exile from the the Health stables, it is our impression, have been sacrificed\u2014 though it is true they have not been much hurt thereby\u2014not because they had lockjaw in any violent form, (but rather to keep other jaws locked, said maxillae being in this case, not equine, but human.That the experiment failed is one of those disarmointments met with by scientists since experiments began.There is no help for these

Herald.It is only necessary to mention this great family journal to a civie official to develop a pronounced case of lock-jaw.The disease is incipient everywhere.Everybody in the civic employ seems to be overburdened with dark secrets, and to be afraid that by some chance they will slip out.This is a fruitful origin of \u201clock-jaw.\u201d m + PUBLICITY, THE BEST PROTECTION Some- At yesterday's meeting of the Financa Committee a proposition was made to have certain claims against the city, arising out of the failure to widen St.Amtoine street, subjected to arbitration, and before the committee would take up the consideration of the question, the representatives of \u2018the press were requested to withdraw.We should be glad to learn what there is in connection with the St.Antoine street business that should be kept from the knowledge of the press and therefore of the public.And we should be glad to know what excuse the aldermen, who are elected by the people to conserve the interests of the people, have to offer for excluding the public press from a discussion relative to such a subject.The incident may or may not be of importance, but at all events it serves ag an occasion for registering a protest against \u2018a practice which the aldermen of late have shown too great disposition to indulge.It may suit the purposes of some aldermen to hold meetings in secret, but they muet be reminded that their interests or desires ere not paramount.The business of the city is now done, not in Council, but in committees, and if the doors of the committee rooms are to be locked the best possible protection that the citizens can fhave\u2014publicity\u2014is taken from them.A cose In point will illustrate the danger of the system.About a hundred thousand dollars\u2019 worth of accounts were not long ago referred to @ committee of aldermen for investigation.The committee sat with closed doors and heard the statements of the creditors.Some of the accounts they reserved, but most have Deen sent on to be paid, and probably by this time have been paid.Now it is barely possible that this sort of an enquiry will serve the public interest best, but for ourselves we do not believe it.Many sirange things must have transpired before that committee, and the public had a right to know all about it.It may be argued that the creditors should not be subjected to annoyance because of any dereliction there may have been on the part of civic officials, but it is even more important that the full blame should be brought home to the officials in question, so that all may know of it.Is any alderman prepared to argue that the Poirier- Hughes incident should have transpired before a committee meeting in secret?The fact that the meeting was in secret accounts for the other papers not havinz a line about the occurrence.And who knows how many accounts may have slipped through without greater discrepancies than this having been noticed ?Civic government to-day is in the hands of the committees.Aldermen may, as individuals, meet in secret as much as explanation before expressing his satisfaction.It is worthy of note, however, that in his letter to the Chief of Police the Mayor lays all the blame for irregularities upon the state of the treasury.Now one of the serious complaints against the administration of Mr.Laforest\u2019s department i3 that money has been absoluialy wasted.even at a time when there is not sufficient forthcoming for the immediate purposes of the department.Even now the department is buymg coal out of money over which die cons ittee have no control, although there are some thousands of expensive tile boxes on hand, of which Mr.Laforest himself is said to be the patentee.Has not the episode of smashing a lot of valuable meters something to do with the emptiness of the treasury ?To say nothing of keeping six or seven carpenters on the pay list where there is only work for one, eight plumbers where three or four would do, twelve telephones where a couple would be ample.What can be expected of the poor treasury when at the mercy of men who buy lampblack in seven- barrel lots and paint bridges a dazzling white ?Next thing we know some needy artist will happen along with a plan for covering the walls of the blacksmith shop with mural decorations, and if he should: be able to convince Mr.Laforest of the advisability of it\u2014for any reason \u2014 the thing would be done on the secret contract principle.His Worship is indeed a master of irony.To think of blaming the treasury for glaring irregularities, when everybody knows \u2014himself included\u2014that the shoe is on the other foot, that these irregularities have beggared the treasury and that but for them there would be money enough to conduct the affairs of the city as they ought to be conducted.NOTES AND COMMENTS.Has Mr.Laforest the lockjaw ?Dear Mr.Mayor: What do you think about this \u201clockjaw\u2019\u201d business ?For a mice, handy sort of disease, \u201clockjaw\u201d is about as good as any we know.Some of \u2018these days there will have to be a royal commission to investigate this \u201clockjaw\u2019 epidemic and its ravages.From the appearance of things, a tendency to \u201clockjaw\u2019\u201d would seem: to be a necessity in candidates for the police force.Those horses which were condemned by Dr.Leduc, and which were.given to the Laprairie farmer, may be said to be \u201cout on suspended sentence.\u201d Civic employes who evince stromg symptoms of \u201clockjaw\u2019 ought to be warned that there are always veterinaries about who can diagnose the disease.We have it on the authority of Chief Hughes and Superintendent Laforest that the city has been tided over its financial embarrassments by the heads of the departments, Our enterprising contemporary, the Star, has not printed Chief Hughes\u2019 explanation of a certain transaction in which he was acting \u201cfor the best interests of the department.\u201d Has the Star got *\u2018lockjaw ?\u201d Mr.Fallon claims the city owes Mr.La- forest $200 and Chief Hughes says he is out $25 on the horse deal.Are there any more civic employes with claims against the city?The investigating committee is still in session.Notice is hereby given that all available fishing reserves on Craig street have been taken up and no further applications will be considered.Only licensed sportsmen will hereafter be allowed to shoot, hunt or kill ducks in the aforementioned marshes.: \u201cSuperintendent Hughes goes om to say that he certified the account for $1.472 only, and that in the transaction he was the loser as he paid Mr.Poirier the amount of the note and $275 of it had already been spent for the benefit of the department.\u201d\u2014The Gazette.The superintendent did not say he had already spent intendent did not say anything like that.What he said was: only $275 of the sum of $300 which I had borrowed from him for the benefit of the department.\u201d Very different.© $ TIMES ON CHAMBERLAIN.© © London, Nov.18.\u2014The Times edi- $ © torially this morning hails Mr.Jos.© ® Chamberlain as the \u201capostle

Endeavors Vainly to Arrest Two Theatrical Men in Montreal.| The stage has always had a great at- .traction for young girls, They are daz- \u20ac zled by the tinsel, the bright dresses and {a the glare of the lights, but are quite ignorant of its difficulties and temptations and the bard work that is necessary in order to get on.Hence it is that there are always dozens of girls who will jump at any chance of going on the rds.0; There are in Montreal just now, it is .ptated, two young fellows of about twen- | ty-five or thereabouts, who represent themselves as theatrical agents, sent here to engage girls to go to New York as chorus girls.They were stopping at the Western ouse, on McGill Street, up to a few days ago.It is claimed that the girls are engaged without the knowledge of their parents.They are | met generally at public dances, it is said, | where the conversation is brought around to theatrical matters.When a girl shows | a liking for the stage the agents talk of \" the glomies of the life and the openings to be obtained in New York, and the would- be prima donna or premier danseuse is invited to go to the Western House.Here, it 18 alleged, the girls are engaged to go to New York, where they are promised $10 a week, after undergoing a preliminary course of training here.Classes are held, it is alleged, in singing and dane- ing, high kicking not being forgotten, a lady instructor being provided for them.Teh girls attend the classes, it is said, without letting their parents or friends _ know anything about it.} ! / Mr.Complaints were made to Mr.M.Marshall, secretary of the S.P.W.C., by a couple of mothers who were too sharp for their daughters, and Wednesday he started in to investigate.He found three girls, who were sent home to their mothers, who, rumor says, gave each one a good old-fashioned licking.The girls say that they were told by the young men that a batch of fifteen girls had been sent down to New York to take their places in the chorus, and they wanted to send down some more.Mr.Marshall also learned from them the manner in \u2018which girls were engaged, and how the , preliminary training was carried on.Two of the girls are daughters of widows, and = | One helps her mother to keep a boarding house, and the other works as a nurse-giri.The mother of one went to the Western House a few days ago, before she made any complaint, and, she says, asked for her daughter, and for the theatrical agents.The proprietor told her, she says, that neither her daughter nor the agents were in the place.Now the girl states, it is alleged, that at the time she was in the place.Mr.Marshall got Mr.R.C.Smith, the society\u2019s lawyer, to dook up the law in the case, but this does not touch the agents.In the case of girls under 21 there is no crime unless they are pre cured for immoral purposes, but any person who entices a girl under 16 to leave home is liable to be imprisoned.Mr.Marshall asked Magistrate Lafontaine to issue warrants for the arrest of the two men, but he refused, while re grebting that the law did not give him power to interfere in the matter.The society has instituted inquiries as to the fate of the fifteen girls who were sent to New York, in view of the fact that the \u201cfinancial backing\u201d of the enter prise the two men were engaged in did not materialize.What Mr.McLeod Says.Mr.McLeod, proprietor of the Western House, made the following statement when I called on him yesterday: \u201cThere were two men here who said they were goimg to get an opera company together.\u2019They arrived about October 26, and stayed until November 9.That was à week ago yesterday.On that morning they got a telegram from their partner in the States, which said that the financuat backing had failed.They seemed pretty much broken up and went away.( \u201cYes, they did meet some girls here.1 think there were three.They met them downstairs in the office and afterwards in the parlor, where the girls sang for them \u2014they had pretty poor voices at that.A lady called and asked about her daughter, and I told her she had been here to see the men.\u201cI don\u2019t remember the names of the men.They did not register.I never saw them before, and don\u2019t know where they both are seventeen years old.went to.MAY GIVE FREE TEXT BOOKS.It Is Announced the Quebec Provincial Government Is Considering the Advisability of the Step.The Provincial Government is considering the question of establishing uniformity of text books in the primary schools, and making a free distribution to the pupils.The number of chilliren attending primary schools in the province is estimated at 200,000.The expense of supplying theda with free text \u2018books would not, Le Soleil argues, be as heavy as one might think.Each year, that paper points out, $50,000 is voted in aid of primary education.If the government would allow that grant to accumulate for two years, there would be enough to print a quarter of a

\u2018the death watch or the prison chaplain.Marin has given up all hope, and has put little faith in the efforts that his counsel, Pagnuelo, is making to save his life.Mr.Pagnuelo has prepared a petition to which he is getting signatures.The petition is to the Minister of Jus- - tice, and sets forth that the prisoner was unable to get certain witnesses whose ! \\ evidence would have shown that Mann\u2019s provocation was such as to warrant hasty action; that he had no intention of killing his mother-in-law.The evidence of the witnesses will be taken and sent with the petition to Ottawa.The Minister will be asked to grant a new trial or to commute the sentence to one of imprisonment.In case he declines to do either, Mann will be hariged at 8 o\u2019clock on the morning of December 16th in the jail yard of the Montreal Jail.ae 1 GRECIAN WENT ASHORE TO-DAY.ea y ! The Allan line steamship Grecian went pshiore yesterday on the south side of the channel opposite the sugar refinery.The accident was due to fog.She had a full general cargo for Glasgow and left the harbor a little before seven o\u2019clock in charge of Pilot Louis Z.Bouille.She drew 24 feet 8 inches aft, and the water in the channel was 29 feet.About 7.30 she was ashore.As soon as word was received at the Allan line office a couple of tugs were \u2018sent down to assist her in getting off.The { bottom is soft and no difficulty is entici- pated, though up to the moment of going to press, she was still aground.; The Grecian had a general cargo inclaf- ing 100,000 bushels of grain, and 417 lead of cattle.She is iron vessel of 3,481 gross tons, and was under the command of Captain Nunan.She was built in 1879 by W.Dorfard & Sons, or Sunderland.Her dimensions are: length 360 feet, beam 49 feet, depth 22.8 feet.It is expected she will go right on to Quebec.- ji A Thanksgiving Day

Phillips Square Honors for a McGill Projessor, Professor Nicholson, of the Science Faculty of McGill University, bas just received from the Institution of Civil Engineers, London, the Watt gold medal and the Telford premium, value £20, awarded for his joint paper, with Professor Callen- der, on \u201cCylinder Condensation in Steam Engines,\u201d read before thatinstitution dast session.Professor (allender has also received a Watt medal and Telford premium of the same value.This paper was .characterized by Professor Unwin, one or the most eminent engineers in England, as one of the most important ever read before the institution.The subject of the investigation, of which the paper is a record, was the loss of steam in a steam engine when the actual quantity used is compared with that shown by the indicator.By taking the temperature of the cylinder walls electrically, it was shown that a large part of this loss must be due to direct leakage from the steam chest into the exhaust pipe.This, we believe, is the first time that this coveted prize has been secured for Canada.Professor Callender, who was associated with Professor Nicholson in the investigation and in the preparation of the paper, is now at University College, London, where he will no doubt pursue similar investigations; but the severance of his connection with McGill is a great loss to this university.THE HERALD, MONTREAL, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1898.Eastern Ontario Edition NEWS FROM CORNWALL.An Illustration of the Expense of Liti- = gation\u2014Boys Caught Stealing Goods.Cornwall,

Perrot last week, for several days, arrived in Cornwall uninjured, and is now on her last trip to Montreal.She will be brought to Cornwall for the winter.The Rocket has had a very prosperous season.\u2018The steamer, which was recently bought by the Cornwall and Montreal Navigation Co., will undergo extensive repairs at hine this winter.An entire new cabin will be put on her besides other dinprovements.An interesting illustration of the expense of litigation was the case of John McIntosh, a farm laborer, of Monklands, Who was tried yesterday before His Honor Judge Pringle on the charge of having stolen about 25 pounds of beef from the butcher cart of Benjamin Garner, of Max- ville.The evidence showed that McIntosh, along with a number of others, was very much intoxicated at the time.Garner's waggon was standing in the hotel yard, when the meat was taken.He suspected McIntosh, and got out a @carch warrant, and identified a piece of meat in a neighboring house as his propenty.Constable ntosh arrested the prisoner, and he was taken before Angus Cummings, J.P., and committted to Cornwall for trial.A number of witnesses were examined, and the judge let McIntosh go on suspended sentence, with a warning in the future to avoid the flowing bowl.Quite a nure- er from Monklands, who were interested in the case, were present in the court.At a meeting of the High School Board held this afternoon it was decided to reengage Mr.Birchard as assistant teacher.The resignation of Mr.Crewson was accepted some time ago, and Miss Fitzgerald, of Niagara Falls, formerly of

acute controversy will close by a restoration of the old rates.But the activity of the Grand Trunk in Mamit is mentioned to be one of the principal stumbling-blocks in the way ot a speedy and complete adjustment of differences.The announcement that that company has decided to open an office in Winnipeg, an compete against the Canadian Pacific for the Western Dusi- mess, is full of significance at the present time.Both roads now quote the same passenger rates \u2018to points in Mamitoba, whereas previous to the rate war the Canadian Pacific was able to quote lower rates.In other words, it had a preferential rate in that western territory.I'he Grand Trunk has swept this away, and the result has been an accession of busi- mess from Ontario to Manitoba points.In this way the Grand Trunk has cut into the practical monopoly of the Canadian Pacific.A demand has been formulated by the anadian Pacific that the rate equalization policy of the Grand Trunk in Mamiitoba should cease, but so far that company has refused to accede to the request, and the fact that it is about to open an office at Winnipeg is understood by aiieay men \u2018to mean hat it has no dm.on giving up the it for a shar of the Manitoba business.g ¢ In anticipation of the development of a heavy mineral traffic in the West, the Canadian Pacific Company has ordered the condtruation of sixty ore cars.The company is also increasing its stock of box cars, amd has just placed an order for three hundred of these vehicles.The immigrant business appears to be a fruitful cause of heartburning among the roads participating in that class of traffic.The conference held in Buffalo last week accomplished nothing in the wav of fan adjustment of the differences that ( Navigation on Craig Street.There is no truth whatever in the rumor that the Road Committee has chartered Howard Gould\u2019s steam yacht to navigate Craig Street.The large expenditure of money in euch a deal would naturally please the committee, but it fell

MK.Timsley, chief game warden, Ontario; D.MeNicoll, passenger traftic manager C.P.R.; G.W.MacDou- gall, hon.attorney IF.& G.Club.For the 40th consecutive year the members of the club rose to their feet and drank enthusiastically to the health of Her Majesty the Queen.hen Dr.Finnie proposed the toast to - the Fish and Game Club.He was very appropriate in his remarks, and after having given the history of the club since its organization until the present time, he dwelt upon the necessity of seeing that the game laws of the Province were properly observed.Some changes should be made, he thought, before the laws would be perfect, \u2018The strict enforcement of the laws would mean an abundant supply of game, and a consequent benefit to the Province by the large number of sportsmen that would be attracted to our hunting fields.The doctor\u2019s remarks were listened to with great interest and provoked much applause.The toast was enthusiastically drunk, and as Dr.Drummond rose to reply to it he was greeted with cheers.\u2018This second doctor drew attention to the fact\u2014something that The Herald has been persistently pointing out for past weeks\u2014 that now of all times, those interested in the protection of the game, should bestir 1lemselves, never before was such interest being shown in the question of game, and the army of sportsmen was growing rapidly.Referring to the reports of big bags, of which we have been hearing much of late, Dr.Drummond said: \u2018\u2018\u2019Fhis horrible slaughter of the innocents, is seldom done for the purpose of appeasing the pangs of hunger.We don\u2019t read in the papers that settlers in the neighborhool of Labelle, or other parts of Quebec have been compelled to kill so many deer, and catch so many fish in order to avoid starvation.No\u2014and I question very much, if the hard working pioneer of the forest, is as a rule, responsible for the destruction of more game and fish, than he actually requires for his temporary wants, and if he does sin to any appreciable extent, it is largely because of ignorance, and the hereditary training which has taught him that the fish and game are his to take, whenever he sees fit to do so.The poor settler, although of necessity an all-round craftsman, and capable of making nearly everything pertaining to his daily wants, has not yet mastered the art of manufacturing powder and lead; with him, too, money is a scarce comnro- dity, and he certainly has neither time, nor I trust, inclination, to go out every day on a wholesale butchering expedition.Bus ihe individuals whom I do blame are those fiends in human shape, who are largely recruited from the towns and cities, and who go into the woods or on the lakes and streams to make a record.\u201cIn conclusion, I would respectfully, but firmly urge upon the French and English press, city and rural, continually to keep their readers in touch with everything pertaining to the fish and game of the Province, and due observance of the laws regarding the same.\u201cWe have, as Canadians, a God-given heritage, of which we, ws honest and intelligent men, are the natural guardians; it is a great trust; a tremendous responsibility, and if we fail to render a faithful stewardship, it will be to our national shame and disgrace.\u201d « Dr.Drummond further chastised that sport\u201d who loves to have the tired-vut deer chased into the water, where he can pepper them at will, going on the principle that the end justifies the means.He recited the following verse, written for the occasion : You see I was there on the runway Just near, where it enters the lake, Couldn\u2019t get better place if I tried it For the deer would be certain to take To the water the moment he saw it, And'then I could pump in the lead At ten or a dosen yards\u2019 dastamce, Till I couldn't help killing him dead.(O \u2019bwes great sport.) (And the excitement !) There I sat watching and waiting For may-be an hour or two, I could hear my poor heart go a-throb- And once when a chipmunk drew Near to my trembling ambush, 1 had almost pulled trigger, When He ran up a silver birch tree, And I saw \u2019twas a chipmunk then.(But \u2019twee greet !) I could see the bright leaves of the autumn, Sprinkling the forest floor, | ; Each leaf all bespattered with crimson, Ag if dip\u2019t in the blood of more Than a thousmd innocent victims.But pshaw ! \u2019twas the frost and rein, So I said to myself, \u201cOld fellow, Brace up ! Be a man again - (And I braced.) Then suddenly over the hill side, Where the hounds killed a fawn last year, ; Co An echo kept ringing, ringing, *Pwas the baying of \u2018Chanticleer.\u201cHe\u2019s got him at last,\u201d 1 murmur, \u201cAnd the old dog will make him jump, So my hold on the rifle tightened, While my heart went thumpety-thump.(Holy Murder !) Here he comes down the pathway, Good Lord ! how he must have run.But with \u201cChanty\u201d\u2019 let out on the home stretch, Don\u2019t suppose he enjoyed the fun.Hardly able to bring his legs with him, Well | don\u2019t get excited yet; Just wait till he reaches the waber, Then \u201cfill\u201d him before he gets wet.Keep still ! why ! I hear him breathing, And now he has passed so close i The point of my rifle could touch hing, And easily give him a dose.Just see how he jumped when he sv1elt me, And look how he struggles and pants, But I'll wait till he gets to the water And give a poor devil a chance.(That's right, isn\u2019t it?) Lu rey And now he has entered ihe water, And when he\u2019s gone ten yards or so, I bang away.Bang! with the Marlin Till I find that I've killed a doe, But a nice little doe, I can tell you, Is better than nothing at all, So if Providence only spares me, PI try it again next fall.(D.V.) The toast to the guests brought relies from Mayor Prefontaine, a long-standing member of the club, Mr.Ussher, une of the most earnest game protectionists in the Dominion, Major Gourdeau and Mr.Davidson.The tenor of these speeches was that there was still plenty of rym for improvements in the existing Quebec game laws, and that the importance of see ing that they were properly carried out could not be over-estimated.The speeches showed that the feeling is right, and that there are a large number of sportsmen ready to stand shoulder to shoulder in seeing that the game of the Province 1s rotected.\u201cThe Ladies\u201d and \u201cThe Press\u201d completed the toast list.There were several very clever songs and recitations given during the evening.All in all, the dinner was most enjoyable.FOOTBALL.COME ONE, COME ALL.The Meldrum Kickers Football Club hereby challenge the bona fide boarders in any boarding house to play a match game of Rugby.This challenge will remain open for one week.Address Wm.Moore, secretary, 22 Cathcart street, city.FOOTBALL COSTS A COLLEGE: 85,000.Carroll College, in Waukesha, Wis., is just $3,000 poorer throughi a game of football.; Miss Anna M.Sackett, who died last week, and who had lived here many vears, had watched the work of Carroll College and decided to assist that work to the best of her ability.She made her will, giving a legacy of $5,000 to the trustees of Carroll College for the benefit of that institution.Last summer she heard and read so much about football in the school that she decided to see a game for herself and ascertain what it was like.She drove out one day to see a contest between the college and a visiting eleven.She was horrified at what she saw.The rcugh contest between the long-haired kickers and punters seemed to her merely an arrangement for maiming and killing those who were engaged in it.She had no sympathy at all for the authorities who encouraged what she thought was brutality under the name of sport.She went home and sent for her lawyer.Under her direction he drew up another will, which contained no legacy for the college, and she signed it, the former will being destroyed.\u2014Chicago Times-Herald.WANTS NO REFORM.Sporting Editor of The Herald: Sir,\u2014It is very amusing to read some of the utterances of pepole who write of football as played to-day compared with the game as played some years ago.As a proof that the game is more interesting now is shown by the interest taken in it.The writer well remembers that, not ten vears ago, the game of Rugby, as played by Canadian teams, was generally witnessed by the officials and the spare men.These were the days when only such men as Mr.Claxton mentions, a few bank clerks, played the game.Gradually, however, wiser counsels prevailed, and some other people besides bank clerks were allowed to play the game.The result has been that to-day there is no more popular sport in Canada, as the attendance at the past seagson\u2019s contests show.As to ungentlemanly conduct, the writer has attended every game played in Montreal this season, on only one or two occasions has there been conduot on the part of players that could be any stretch of imagination be called ungentlemanly.Last vear one man disgraced himself and was promptly dealt with by the proper authorities.-As to the much-talked-of American tactics introduced into the game, I fail to see where they come in.There is as much difference between the two games as between Tacrosse and lawn tennis, as anyone at all acquainted with the American game can see.One is a game that depends altogether on massed plays, where pure strength plays the most important part, while the other is a game where running in a great measure is the prime factor.Then as to brutal play, and the much- vaunted English style.Mr.(Claxton surely must think that the majority of people have never seen the game as played in the Old Country.Why the game as plaved in Fngaland is\u2014or was until = faw veare ae 50 per cent.more \u201cbrutal\u201d than that played in Canada.True, im some places in England this play has been cried down, but \u201chacking\u201d is still allowed in many sections of Yngland, \u2018and anything more \u201cbrutal\u201d than this it is impossible to imagine.To conclude, Mr.Editor, it seems to me that there is a certain class of people who are never satisfied unless they are \u201cthe whole thing,\u201d and my advice to these people is to get up a little game of their own, where such people as policemen and such like be kept out; let them play a nice old \u201cstyle game\u201d where there will be no such thing as tackle or a scrimmage break.Of course, no one will go to see them, and then they will not need a policeman.The Canadian game is all right as it is, and \u201clong may it wave.\u201d Frank Campbell.Laval avenue.THE OFFSIDE RULE.A change in the rule in regard to off-side play is advocated by the Kingston Whig, which says: \u201cIf the Canadian Football Union at its next meeting decides upon on other mea- sure of reformation, it should not hesites upon improving the present rule regardiuyg off-side play.When the captain of a team, under present conditions, sees that he is about to Jose four points to the opposing \u2018team, it is the easiest thing in the world for him or one of his men to deliberately go off-side, thus giving the opposing team a free kick, which results in a rouge or a touch-in-goal.If the team having the privilege of a free kick had the option of taking five yards it would do away with this deliberate off-side play.It was owing to these tactics that.the Cadets lost the intermediate championship on Saturday last.When they were almost sure of scoring a touch and try, a \u2019Varsity man would go off-side, giving Cadets a free kick, and generally one point followed.In this way \u2019\\ arsity was able to keep the Cadets\u2019 score down and at the same time the visitors relieved their goal.\u201d VARSITY IS READY.Toronto, Ont, Nov.18.\u2014(Special.)\u2014\" Varsity will be strong in all departments tomorrow, when the semi-final for the Dominion championship will be played against Ottawa City at Rosedale.It will be the contest of the season in Toronto.\u2019Varsity\u2019s team will be chosen from: Back, Beal; Davidson; half backs, Hills, McKenzie, Boyd, Brown; quarter back, Biggs; scrimmage, Hall, Sanderson, Gibson, Armour; wings, Mackenzie, Hunt, Meredith, Ansley, Armstrong, Darling, Blackwood, Caldwell, Harris, Burnside and Telford.KINGSTON WANTS REFORM.Kingston, Ont., Nov.18.\u2014(Special.) \u2014 The Whig voices the opinion of football piayers and spectators for a change in the ruies, which will increase interest from a spectacular standpoint.Tthere must be more open play; the tendency now is for mass play.1t advises lopping off two wing men and the adoption of the five yard rule, by which, after three scrimmages, if five yards is not made, then the other side gets the ball.This would result in more kicking and sprinting, and would reduce the tedious scrims.There must also be more penalties for tackling below the knee, and also as to off-side play.Deliberate acts of off-side are made to save teams from scoring.The wings wrestle too much and offside is frequently re sultant by pulling each other about.A large delegation will go from here to Ottawa to-day and to-night.The Granite management will take down twenty men, and will not name the team until they reach the grounds.The Granites have been practising steadily,and are ready for any sort of weather.Up to last evening a referee had not been decided upon by the teams.It is probable that President Claxton, of the Union, will decide the matter.THE JUNIOR STRUGGLE.The final struggle for the junior championship of the Province of Quebec Rugby Association will take place tomorrow afternoon, when the Westmounts and Montreal IlI.team line out on the M.A.A.A.grounds.The match tomorrow is to play off the draw that the same teams played early in the season, and whichever team wins the championship for a vear.The Westmount boys have left nothing undone in order to be in good condition, and feel confident of victory.The wearers of the winged wheel are not doing much talking, but are practicing steadily, and their friends can depend on them pulling up a hard fight for the championship.Whidhever team wins, the players of both teams will know when time is up that they have been ina football match.THE TURF.A GOOD JOCKEY KILLED.Toronto, Nov.17.\u2014A Nashville, Tenn., special says : Jockey Sherland, who was under contract to ride next year for the Canadian turfman, J.E.Seagram, MP.was killed' at Cumberland Park to-day.He was Tiding Mr.J.P.Dawes\u2019 Red Monk in the mile race, and the diorse fell.Sher- | land was so severely injured that he died à few hours later.THE WALIL OF THE DOPER.He sat him down in a sunny spot and he mustered an anxious look, And his eyebrows knit, and his eves grew mist as he fumbled a dog-eared book; And as he fumbled the dog-eared book\u2014- \u2018twas dope, it appeared to me\u2014 He fetched a breath from the depths below: and said to himself, said he :\u2014 \u201cOn, it\u2019s getting down to the heel of the meet, and it\u2019s down to the heel with me; And how I am going to hie me hence I really cannot sea.I might write home\u2014no, I can\u2019t do that\u2014Il might make a touch\u2014but where ?Did I hand it out when I had mine to lighten a broken man\u2019s care ?-\u2018\u2018Oh, I feel the chill of the marble heart, see Time on the frozen face\u2014 No one responds to the wily touch nor stands for the hurried \u2018mace.\u2019 And it looked so soft when I started out, with the wisdom I'd acquired, To lift the coin from the grated box and make the layers tired, looked on the men who laid the odds as dolts of low degree, And I gloated upon the mass of wealth that in visions appeared to me, My svstem was one that couldn\u2019t lose, my figures they couldn't lie, And as I look back I cannot see how it was they went awry.It must be that I was touted off\u2014yes, blame it, that was it! I hearkened unto the tales, that is why I sit Here in the sun and brood about the things that might have been, The chances I blew when the game was hot and will never be mine again.trainers\u2019 and \u20180h, I figured \u2018em straight and I figured \u2019em place, and I figured \u2019em one, two, three, And I always knew to the very dot just how things ought to be; And they came the way that I said they should, but, alas, to my despair, When the things came off that I said would come, I wasn\u2019t\u2014I wasn\u2019t there! Oh, I figured \u2019em in, and I figured \u2019em out, and I figured \u2019em black and blue, I figured \u2019em till my eyes would ache and my head strange turns would play.Then I'd go to bed and dream all night of the money I\u2019d make next day, And the horses I'd ficure to win would win, and the seconds would second be, And the thirds be third, but not one of the three would be running that day for me.Oh, I figured \u2019em straight, and I flgured \u2019em place, and I figured \u2019em one, two, three, But the tender grace of one silver \u2018case\u2019 it doesn\u2019t avpeal to

the interesting wheeling paper edited by John Schuite, has compiled the records of the Canadian bicyc.e season just closed.In the professional competition Angus McLeod has ridden in splendid form, and winds up with a good lead on his opponent, T.B.McCarthy.Good judges agree in the opinion that Angus could have held his own had he been pitted against the stars across the border.Among the amateurs H.A.Coussirat, of Montreal, leads.In races of a mile or so, \u2018\u201cCoussi\u201d was invincible down his way, taking all comers into camp quite regularly at Granby and Queen's Park track.Considering that Frank Moore, the next in line, did not make his debut for the season until July 1st, his showing was a good one.Boisvert and Drury are a strong Montreal pair.The former is more of a distance man, while \u201cJimmy\u2019s\u201d forte is in the sprinting game.It is regrettable that G.W.Riddle, of Winnipeg, was not \u2018\u201c\u2018down east\u201d longer.He had but little competition up in his fastness, and was consequently unable to roll up a long string of points.In the Maritime Provinces R.E.Smith, Windsor, N.S., and Donald Keith, jr., Halifax, are the leaders.Meets

of the Scottish border.The latter generations have distinguished them:seives in the pubiic service, and the present peer\u2019s great grandfather, the first karl, was Governor-Gen- cral of Bengal, and conspicuous in connection with the trial of Warren Hast- | ings.Lous Karl's \u2018brother also was Gov- rernor-General of Madras.| Betore he succeeded to the peerage and | before the courtesy title of Lord Melgund, Lord Minto used to figure in the pigskin under the assumed name of \u201cMr.Rolly.\u201d He was then a Cambridge undergraduate.His pseudonym was a nickname that he had gained at Eton, where he was a very respectable car.At school he was second in the single sculls, and later gained distinction as an active member of the Kingston Rowing Club.While an undergraduate he was also prominent in athletics, and won the mile race in the Third Trinity sports at Cambridge.It was as an amateur jockey, however, that Lord Minto particularly shone.His aspirations were high, and in 1874 he rode Defence, owned by the famous English turfman, Captain Machell, into fourth place for the Liverpool Grand National Steeplechase.The same year he won the Grand National Steeplechase of France, run at Auteuil, on Miss Hungerford.He rode over hurdles\u2014a more difficult feat than steeplechase riding, though not commonly supposed to be\u2014with particular success, and won many hurdle races With horses trained by Mr.Richardson.In 1875, at the Lincoln spring meeting, he passed the post first on five different \"The pack of hound le pack of hounds with which à especially, well known as a

22.Kid McCoy and Peter Maher will have 1t out for twenty-five rounds at \u2018the Greater New York Athletic Club Dec.5.I'he results of these two contests will probably cause further complication in the present pugilistic muddle.McCoy, who is and always has been a keen student of pugilism\u2014some call him the \u201cWizard of Scrapping\u201d\u2019\u2014think that Corbett will win his ngnt with Sharkey.He gives his reasons in the following statement: \u2014 Asbury Park, Nov.16.\u20141o the Editor of the World: Corbett will defeat Shar key, and the fight will go to the limit.\u2018I'hat\u2019s what 1 think .about it.In the first place Corbett has all the best of it in the articles of agreement.They provide for clean breakaways and prohibit hitting in clinches.This prevents Sharkey from using his strength and roughing it.As far as cleverness i8 concerned, there is no comparison to be drawn between Cor bett and Sharkey.One is very clever, the other is not clever at all.As 1 figure it out Corbett will simply jab Sharkey until the sailor is a sight.He will hit him when and where he pleases.But I don\u2019t think- there will be a knockout.If it comes it will be accidental.The tight will go to the limit because Sharkey will bé able to stand all the punishment that Corbett can inflict.lf the fight was to be continued to a finish, .choice would be Sharkey.I don\u2019t think Corbett can knock him out, and sooner or later \u2018Pompey Jim\u2019 would get tired, and when he gets tired it\u2019s all up.with him.Kid McCoy.WRESTLING CARN.VAL.The Monument National Will Be the Scene of the Comstock-Quinn Match This Evening.~ The Monument National will this evening be the scene of a wrestling carnival that should attract a large number of lovers of this splendid sport.bout of the evening will be that between Comstock and Quinn.Great interest \u2018is being taken im the match, which should prove to be a lively and exciting go.Whoever Comstock is, he has lots of backing, and his money has pretty well gone a-begging, as no Montrealer can be found who have sufficient faith in Quinn's ability to back him with much money.The lightweights will have a go before the big event.All in all, a very good programme of wrestling will likely be given.The principals and \u2018their backers met this morning and had a long walk about the solution of a man to acts referee.They could agree upon no one, so the matter was left to the stakeholder, who, by the articles of agreement, will appoint a referee when the men step on the mat this evening.SWIMMING.HIGH

rumor be correct, an important railway deal is now going on, the consummation of whixth, will mean that the Grand Trunk Railway will get rid of all its branch lines in the state of Michigan.The story is that the Wabash Railway is negotiating with the G.T.R.for the possession of these lines, and that it is probable that the Wabash will ultimately obtain them.The Grand Trunk Railway has, in Michigan, three lines, the Detroit, Grand Haven and Milwaukee, 189 miles; the Toledo, Saginaw and Muskegon, 97 miles, and the Cincinnati, Saginaw and Mackinaw, 53 miles, making a total of 339 miles.The Wabash road at the present time has close working connections with the Grand Trunk.It has leased running powers over the Southern division of the G.T.i of years, and the two roads are working ogether in the closest friendship.The Michigan lines now controlled by the Grand Trunk would serve the purpose of the Wabash and there is nothing improbable in the story that the latter road is about to acquire them.TURRET CHIEF DAMAGED.Quebec, Nov.18.\u2014(Special.)\u2014Th 1- ship \u2018lurret Chief, which = Seren, near Berthier (en bas) last week, bas been placed in the Levis dry dock

Season.Ottawa, Nov.18.\u2014(Special.)\u2014The Customs Department bas prepared the returns for the four mon the present fiscal year ending October 31.They how a great- lv increased aggregate trade compared with the similar period of last year.The trade passing between Canada and Great Britain, the United States and other countries during the four months of 1898 totalled $119,- 375,023, as against $109,214,243, a betterment for the present year wf $10,160,780.This favorable balance is entirely accounted for by augmented importations, there being an increase for the four months\u2019 period of 1898 of $12,868,744, while there was a decrease in exports of $2,707,974, Canada exported during the 1898 period $63,454,947, as against $66,162,921 in 1897.Of the exportations during the present year there was sent abroad home-grown produce worth $53,241,179, and of goods not the produce of Canada, $10,213,768, as compared with $59,122,015 and $7,040,906 respectively, during the same time in the previous year.In both cases coin and bullion are included.The exports were made up as follows: In 1898, produce of the mine, $4,474,928; fisheries, $4,304,165; forest, $16,233,173: animals, $18,651,044; agricultural products, $14,127,811; manufactures, $378,149; miscellaneous, $128,990.The exportation in 1897 was thus divided: Produce of the mine, $5,014,240; fisheries, $4,751,477; forest, $16,- 215,651; animals, $21,788,641; agricultural, 813,965,519; manufactures, $3,779,758; miscellaneous, $125,198.It will be seen from these figures that while there was a considerable decrease in the exportation of animals and their produce there was a large increase in the sale of agricultural products abroad.The imports for the four months, periods of 1897 and 1898, were divided between dutiable and free goods as follows: 97 .1898.Dutiable.$23,410,989 $30,974,841 Free.19,640,353 24,945,225 Total.$43,051,322 $55,920,060 Increase-\u2014$12,868,744.1898.1897.Duty

SCARCE.rt Owing to the Fact That a Large Quantity Has Been Shipped to the States, The scarcity of bran in this market is occasioned by \u2018the large quantities that have been taken out of Canada by United States buyers, who have paid move money ait the mills than could be got by shipping to this market.Such is the demand for Ontario bran in the United States for re- shipmemt to Great Britain and Newfoundland that an Ontario miller has written to his correspondent here asking him if he could buy him some bran in this market, as he had an order to fill for the United Ebates, but not sufficient to fill it, and he thought if he secured the quantity required he would ship it on to New York from Momtmeal, but it was not to be haa here.Large quantities of bran are going forward from American ports to Antwerp, mburg and Bremen; in some instances wihole cargoes.Large shipments of Mam- toba bran have been shipped from this city to the States at 8 to $11.50 in bulk.Ontario is wanbed here for the local trade, and has advanced \u2018to $12.50 and $13 in bulk.\u2014Trade Bulletin, DROWNED AT IROQUOIS.Lock Tander Slipped Into the Canal on His Way to Work, and Went to tho Bottom, « » Iroquois,

G.T.R.WRECK, General Superintendent McGuigan Does Not See How the Company is to Blame in the Matter.General Superintendent MeGuigar, o the Grand lrunk, was seen at the Windsor late last night, and was asked if ke had learned the nature of the verdict.He replied that he had received a message late in the evening apprising him of it.\u201cWhat is your opinion of it?\u201d \u201cWell, to say the least, it is a humane one\u2014for the operator.\u201d \u201cWhat do you think of the censure administered the management by the jury?\u201d \u201cWithout having seez, or heard the testimony, and with what information I have received up to the present time, and which 1 believe to be very complete, I am at a loss \u2018to understand how the jury could reach a conclusion that the company should be censured on account of any action on the part of the management, as \u2018there has been absolutely mo change in the rules mor in the methods of operating trains at Murray Hill since the present management has been mi charge of the road.\u2018fhe operator, Murphy,\u201d continued Mr.McGuigan, \u2018has been performing the same duties for the past five or six years, and has, so far as 1 can learn, always been regarded as a reliable and competent man.\u2014Furthermore, all the employes -on the engine and train had been a long tithe in the sérvite, and in their regular turn lhandled this train every week.Conductor Purdon and Engineer Brady have been, I understand, in the service since boyhood, were thoroughly familiar with the road and its rules, which require the greatest vigilance and care on the part of all engine and train men when approaching the double track at Murray Hill.\u201d \u201cHow long had the trainmen been on duty?\u201d ; \u201cConductor Purdon: took charge of the train at Kingston at 1.20 a.m., consequently he had been on duty only about two hours and a half when the accident occurred, Engineer Brady coupled on to the train at Belleville, which is the regular point for changing engines, leaving about on \u2018time, at 3.15 a.m., and therefore had been on duty less than an hour, after having sixteen hours for rest at Belle- ville.\u201d \u2018How do you acount for his having run past the signals, over the switch, more than a mile on the wrong track?\u201d \u201cJ am unable to do so.It is one of the most extraordinary cases that I have ever known, as it was the duty of at least four men on the \u2018train, the engineer, fire- mar, conductor and brakeman to have known when the train was approaching Murray Hill, as # is as much.the duty of the last three men as it is of-the en gineer to watch for signals.Even though the engin eer had overlooked the signals and overrun the switch, the conductor or brakeman should have noticed it, and stopped the train at once by using the air signal, connecting with the engine, or applying the air brake, which could have been done from any car on the train.TO SEE OUR CANALS: An Indian Government Engineer

HEAVY FOG.Out of the Twenty Men at Work Only Three Managed to Escape.DIDN'T HEAR IT COMING.npr New York, Nov.18.\u2014The police headquarters at Jersey City report that eleven trackmen were killed and six injured by being struck by an eastbound Pennsylvania railroad train at the Hackensack iron bridge, just outside of Jersey, this morning.The men were hit by the train during a thick fog.It is now reported that there were thirteen men killed.The Pennsyivania Railroad officials say they do not konw at present how many of their workmen lost their lives.Two bodies have been brought here.They are either Poles or Italians.Their names are not yet known.Some of the injured have also arrived, and have been sent to the different hospitals.Frank Wangan is in St.Francis Hospital, badly hurt about the side.Frank Scwaskie is in the same hospital, and so badly mangled that he will probably die.Lawrence Hoffman wag struck in the body by the body of one of the men who was killed.He was \u2018hurled to one side and was badly injured internaliy, \u2018Lhe drain which ran down the gang of workmen was a local from Milltown to Jersey City.It was due in Jersey City at 8.20 a.m.The fog this inorning delayed the train, and Engineer Van Ostrand was endeavoring to make up time.His train was running at a high rate of speed.He did mot suppose that men were at work in the fog, and thought nothing would obstruct a quick run to Jersey City.The first he knew that his train had run into the men was when the engine jarred.He heard the cries of the wounded and as soon as possible he brought his train to a stop.The men passengers got out and aided the trainmen in searching for the bodies of the victims.The fog had not lifted and the searchers had to feel their way.A train had passed on the westbound track a few minutes before the eastbound train ran the men down.The smoke from the engine of the westbound train went over on the eastbound track.The noise of the westbound train prevented the workmen on the easthound track rom hearing the approach of the eastbound train.They were not aware that the train was near them until they had been run down.Altogether there were twenty men in the gang, and it is reported that not one escaped injury.They were in charge of Foreman William Cork, of Jersey City.As soon as the news of the accident reached Jersey City, the Pennsylvania officials went to the Meadows with Doctors Faison and McGill, and superintended the removal of the dead and injured.Later\u2014It is now definitely known that eleven men were killed, six injured, and that three escaped unhurt.Forging onward.This week\u2019s Metropolitan canbains among other good things an article by Rev.Dr.Barclay on the Earl of Aberdeen, and a splendid picture of the Aberdeen family.The Ithacan and

tentatively approved.These, however, cover the minor questions.and the important subjects of the North Atlantic fisheries, reciprocity and Behring Sea remain open.While the commission treats all statements regarding its work as nauthorized, yet it is understood by those acquainted \u2018with its work that the questions of border immigration, mining rigs, lake fisheries and the Alaskan-Canadian boundary have been found less difficult of solution than was expected, and that a basis of agreement on these subjects is 11 «ght, if not actually determined upon.Technically, however, nothing is done until the last act of the commission is performed, so that these and all other subjects remasn open until the end.As to Behring Sea, the view prevails on both sides that a settlement will be reached, and the presence of two officials\u2014one a Canadian and the other an American\u2014 at Victoria, where an inventory si makmg of the Canadian sealing fleet, leads to the belief that the settlement may be on the basis of wiping out the industry by giving the Canadian some equivalent for the capital invested.A recent official document places the Behning Sea fleet at thirty, hut these are small schooners, none of them above 100 tons.The Most Stubborn Knots.Reciprocity and the Atlantic fisheries continue to be the most stubborn questions before the commission.On Teci- procity the commissioners do not express themselves in sanguine terms.The subject is still before a sub-committee, which, however, reports when an agreement is reached and the full commission approves -what has been done.'lhere are so many articles on atariff schedule that the drs- cussions have not yet been productive of many agreements on specific articles or groups ot art.cies.Thus far the discussion has been rather free and open, arti- c.es being considered as they were called up by individual members.While the abrogation, of the British preferential tariff is considered by some of the American commissioners as a sine qua non to any reciprocity agreement, it is said that view has not been submitted in the form of an ultimatum, and the issue on that point is yet to come, as indicating the liberal view prevailing among the American commissioners, one of them said to-day that he wished American merchants would be brought to realize the futility of shutting Canadian goods from our markets, when the main result was to dfrce these goods into British markets, where they competed with our goods, at a much greater advantage than they could get in the New York and other American markets.In his judgment, it was to our advantage to compete with Canadian goods on our own ground, rarhet than to go across the ocean and meet them in & npatition.The commission held its usual session, beginning at 11 o'clock to-day.p AMONG THE SHIPS.In and Out of Montreal.Arrived\u2014Novemtzer 17.Steamship Montrose, Evans, Belfast, EI der, Dempster & Co., general.Steamship

Glasgow No- reason when you St.James Street.St, Catherine St.West, St.Catherine St, East.te vember 3, and averaged 13 knot during the entire trp across, a remarkable showing considering the newness of the vessel's machinery, and the fact that she was in ballast trim.She is one of the largest freighters running here, is a steel four- masted ship, with ten hatches, and modern [ gear for rapid handling of cargo, is equipped with triple expansion engines, having cylinders 28, 47 1-2, and 78 inches by 60 inches stroke.Sha is commanded by Capt.Randolph Campbell, former commander of the steamer Oranmore.The Turret Chief, The SS.Twret Chief, which ran aground last week near the Berthier wharf, and which has been in Davies\u2019 yard, Quebec, \"since Sunday last, was placed in the dock at St.Joseph yesterday and Messrs.Simmonds and Fry have completed the survey of the exterior of the vessel to-day.The bottom was found to be very badlf damaged, so much so that it is believed a complete nw half bottom will havt to be made.The plates were broken and crushed and the bottom was sprung about four inches out of its normal position.It is very difficult as yet, \u2018however, owing to the interior nt being surveyed, t form any idea of the actual cost of repairing, but it is believed that it will be in the vicinity of from $30,000 to $40,000.The Turret Chief will undergo temporary repairs in this port, and then be removed to Halifax for permanent overhauling.Gulf Report.\u2019 L\u2019Islet\u2014Cloudy, north-east.River du Loup\u2014Cloudy; east.Father Point\u2014Cloudy;
