Assembly yesterday the bill introduced by Mr.Hack- ett to amend the Quebec License law so as to do away with special licenses to sell \u2018liquor on exhibition grounds was read for the third time.; The Hon.Mr.Flynn\u2019s bill to amend the law respecting woods and forests was introduced.The Hon.Mr.Casgrain introduced a bill to amend the Quebec Election Law by basing more on the English election laws so as to render bribery and corruption a remote possibility, if not to make them impossible.When the House was moved into com- the cost of litigation in country districts a long discussion ensued.The bill aims at extending the jurisdiction of the magistrates\u2019 court.The debate was taken part in by the Hon.Mr.Casgrain, Mr.Beau- champ, the Hon.Mr.Pelletier, Mr.Lus- sier, Mr.Stephens, Mr.Hackett, Mr.Panneton, Mr.Auge, and the Hon.Mr.Tail-, lcn, and the bill was given the six: months\u2019 hoist by a vote of 37 to 27.The House then went into committee on Mr.Stephens\u2019's bill to prevent bribery and corruption in municipal and civic, corporations, as amended by the -Com-: mittee on legislation.The bill was re-' ported without amendment and read for a third time.CT Mr.Cartier\u2019s bill asking that students in law, after receiving their degree from a recognized university, be allowed to practice without passing a further examination before the Bar, came up for its second reading, and was liberally discussed, afterwards being sent to the committee on legislation.SOME QUESTIONS ANSWERED.During the sitting, Mr.Caron was told by the Attorney-Gemeral, in answer to a was employed as Crown prosecutor in the.Hooper case, and was paid 31,600 for his entire services ,throuzhout including expenses of his journey to Port Hope, etc.His claim had been $2,300.Mr.Pinault was told by the Hon.Mr.Flynn that Mr.Henry O'Sullivan, mentioned on page 3 of the last report of the Commissioner of Crown Lands as inspector, receiving a salary of 31,050 per an- num, is the same Henry O'Sullivan who appears on page 34 of the same report as having received a sum of $12,160.95 for scaling rivers, etc., in the Upper Ottawa region, and that Mr.O'Sullivan performed the duties of his office of inspector at the same time as he performed the said works under instructions from the Hon.Mr.Duhamel.The total cost of the surveys was $19,000, but had they been intrusted to an ordinary surveyor, the fees would have amounted to over $32,- 000.In answer to Mr.Stephens, Mr.Nantel said that Mr.George Bowie, of Montreal, was appointed by order4n-council of June 18, 1892, at a salary of $1,600 a year, halt of which was paid by Public Works Department and half by that of the Attor- ney-General, bis duties being to superintend work on government buildings in Montreal and the purchase of fuel therefor.Mr.Flynn said, in answer to Mr.Marchand, that Luc Dupuis was paid $56 per day for services and expenses for inspecting certain unsold limits in the Upper Ottawa region and that it was not in the public interest that his report should be made public.BILLS PASSED.The following private bills through their final stages.\u2014 To Incorporate the village of

the bill to apply to Quebec.Finally, on suggestion of the Premier, the debate was adjourned in order that {information \u2018might be obtained on the subject passed mittee upon Mr.Stephens\u2019s bill

the transmission of valuation rolls to the provincial secretary and to registrars.The House went into committe of supply upon the last of the supplementary estimates, $25,000 for repairs to the Beauport Asylum.MONTREAL VICTUALLERS COMPLAIN.An important deputation of licensed victuallers arrived here to-day from Montreal for the purpose of urging certain amendments to the license law and especially such as would embody the demands made some days before by a former deputation and fully reported at the \u2018time.The present deputation consisted of Messrs.Theo.Lanctot, Jos.Riendeau, Arthur Jones, J.B.Bureau, Henry Du- bois, H.Gilchen, Nap.Richard, Gordon Melville, L.A.Lapointe and Geo.Char.trand.The members of the deputation did a good deal of lobbying and last evening interviewed the Premiér, to whom i they were introduced by Mr.Auge, M.P.fF P., who acted as spokesman.He urged specially upon the government that Mr.Lambe be made a salaried officer of the revenue, instead of being paid as at pres- t ent by fines, and also insisted that informers should be placed upon the same footing as other witnesses, namely, that their evidence should no longer be considered as affected by the fact that they were sharers in the penalties imposed in cases of conviction.The other points demanded by the Licensed Victuallers he would leave to the consideration of the | government pending the amendments \"which they intended proposing next year.The Hon.Mr.Taillon said the government had practically decided that Mr.Lambe was to be made a salaried officer and thought the other demand made was | equitable and merited consideration.He | promised that it should receive it.ÿ © :* NOTES OF THE LEGISLATURE.In the Railway Committee this morn- wing\" the Hull Electric Power\" Company's bill was up and a hot discussion ensued on several clauses of the bill.An amendment \u201cwhich limits the action of the Hull Electric Power Company to the city of Hull was carried at half-past one.In the legislation committee, Mr.Stephens\u2019 bill to prevent bribery and corruption in municipal corporations was passed after a long discussion, with a number of amendments at the promoter\u2019s suggestion or with his consent,which will tend greatly to improve its efficiency.Phe consideration of his bill to prohibit indecent posters was put off till Friday to hear Mr.J.H.Jacobs, of Montreal, in opposition.Mr.Deschene made a lengthy attack upon the ministerial asylum policy and was followed on the same side.by Messrs.Fitzpatrick and Stephens, while the ministers heard from were Messrs.Pelletier and Taillon.\u2014\u2014 \u2018DIFFERENTIALS.THE C.P.R\u2019S | \"~~ TO THEIR EXTENSION.\u2014 Many rallway associations have been formed in\u2019 the United States with the object of apportioning business, and dealing out a sort of rough justice all round, but conflicting interests, jealousy, and the impossibility of several associations, independent of one another, satisfactorily covering all interests have led, at one | time or another, to their disruption.It is now the intention to form a great association which shall represent all interests west of Chicago, both in the United States and Canada, with sub-commit- tees at several points of territory, to attend to local matters, but with the general body supreme, arranging for rates and business, giving differentials, \u2018and generally taking in hand the railway business of the country- What is differential?In a rough way it takes the place of the pooling arrangements which were declared illegal by the interstate law.It is not impossible that this feature of the law may be revoked, as it is much in disfavor with the railway companies, but if the railways cannot pool, they can at least set up the differential.In any association which embraces a considerable number of railways, there will be one or more roads which by geographical position, by superior facilities, by greater shortness in the route, will command the greatest portion of the business.The weaker lines appear before the association and show \u2018why they should \u2018be allowed a differen- | 2208 tial\u2014that is to say, be allowed to sell ; tickets, at, say, $5 or $10 cheaper than the stronger lines between the points in ' respect of which there is the competition of several lines in the association.Some- | times the disability is a wait of hours or days, or the necessity of boat service a\u2018 part of the way.Whatever it is, the as- | sociation discusses it, and grants a differential.The differential resembles the pooling arrangement, and yct it is different in its incidence.When there is a pool, each railway gets, at the end of the year, the share which it was agreed at the beginning it should get.It does not matter who does the business.One railway may have done fifty percent, and another .only ten, but the railway which did fifiy percent will only get the twenty percent: which was agreed upon.The effe:t of! this in the past has been to induce care- | lessness.The management of a particular line might say: \u2018It does net matter about our equipment.We get our percentage anyway.\u2019 And the road which has worked hard, and kept up its rolling stock and road bed, showing at the end of the year that it had done fifty percent\u2019 of the business, will be in a position to.be independent of the pooling business, having taken advantage of the carelwss- ; ness of those members of it who were con- | tent to have their legal percentage with- | out working to extend their connections.| In a word, this arrangement works both : Ways.It is a temptation to laziness, .on the one band, and to exceptional effort on the other, so that the pool may even-! tually hurt some and exalt others.The differential is a sort of rough apportionment, too, but there is\u2019 nro exactness about it, and one may do far more business than another, without those who are members of the association being concerned thereby.The differential is largely taking the place of the pooling ararngements.Most of the importnat eastern lines have agreed to it, including the New York Central.which gives differential to the Grand Trunk and Chicago line.It is likely to be mote extensively employed still, if the law against pooling cannot be repealed.This new association, or, rather, the railway men from-all parts of the country who are now in Chicago for the purpose of forming this new association, ha as our despatches show, taken up the subject of differentials, and in this connection the C.P.R.came in for some attention.It is stated that the company demanded that the differentials, which have been allowed\u2014$10 and $5 via Port Arthur, and $7.50 - via the Shasta route,\u2014should be made to apply as far south as London, and that this demand was refused.As a matter of fact, Mr.Usher assistant passenger agent of the C.P.R., stated this morning that the differential has always been in force as far as London, and the company would not make a demand for something which it had already got.He had not heard from Mr.McNichol, who was at the meeting, but presumed there was some objection taken to the differential extending to this point south.As to this bringing the C.P.R.\u2018nto the fight with the lines of the Central Traffic Association, \u2018it may be simply stated, said Mr.Usher, \u2018that this is an effort of the imagination of the Chicago reporter.\u2019 D CN MR.McCLINTOCK DEAD.Point Fortune, Que., Dec.20.\u2014Last night an old and highly respected resident of this place, a firm friend of the \u2018Witness,\u2019 passed away in the person of Mr.William McClintock, who came here from Ireland over sixty years ago.The deceased was one of the leading farmers of the district and a most prominent man in temperance and religious.circles and for many years sup- erintepdent of the Methodist church Sab- bath-gchool.His death will be deeply felt the community as he was always active in every good object.He leaves a wife, three sons and two daughters, Mrs.Jackson, of Lachute, and Mrs.Barclay, of Point Fortune; Mr.W.E.McClintock, of Point Fortune; Mr.James MoClintock, Michigan, and Mr.George McClintock, of California.mm CHICAGO'S MUNICIPAL CORRUPTION Chicago, Dec.20.\u2014 Eight indictments have been found by the grand jury against men alleged to have been guilty of election frauds on Nov.6, in the thirtieth precinct of the thirty-fourth ward.This action is the first fruit of the work of the Civic

CATHOLICS FORBIDDEN TO JOIN THE ODDFELLOWS, KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS OR SONS OF TEMPERANCE.Brooklyn, Dec.19.-The \u2018 Eagle\u2019 this evening prints the following \u2014Bishop MicDennell had a surprise in store for the ciergymen of the diocese when they assembled yesterday in the Diocesan Seminary to participate in the regular quar- teriy conference.The bishop announced that he was in receipt of a communira- tion from Mer.Satollt.The communication was written in Latin and it stated that the Apostolic Delega:e had been instructed by Rome to motify the archbishops, bishops and priests of the Unit States that the action taken by the Aw- erican archbishops relative to secret and semi-secret societies at a meeting held by t them in Chicago had been ratified by the College of Cardinals and bv the Pope.: The meeting in Chicago was held at the Ferhan, and though it was known that cne of the , topics to be discussed would he the attitude of the Roman Catholic Church toward secret societies, no information as to the results of this meeting was given until the letter read at the conference was received by the Papal delegate.This i letter contains the information that tho ; Knights of Pythias, the 0 idfeliows and ! the Sons of Temperance are now under the ban of the Reman Cawnalic Church and the Roman Catholics who join any of these three scoleties will be exeum- municated.Those Roman Catholics who are now members of one rt mere of these societies will be exhorted to sever their connection with hem and if they refuse they will from that manent.and ty their refusal, cease to be Roman Catho- lies.The decrees affect no other coiln- try save the United States, el - THE ARMENIAN MASSACRE.CONTINUED PERSECUTION OF CHRISTIANS.London, Dec.20.\u2014The \u2018Daily Chronicle's\u2019

it seems not impossible that in case of a challenge there would be no defender.Lord Dunraven, who has offered to race for the America\u2019s Cup, or for another trophy, or for none at all, has de- Spaired of securing a race on any terms, and says the \u2018Valkyrie\u2019 will not be built.It is possible, however, that a race will yet be arranged before the middle of next month, by which time the Americans will probably know whether they will beable to screw their courage up to the sticking point or not.ee Mr.John Burns, the English labor leader and member of parliament for Battersea, has given deep offence to the people of the United States by telling them in plain language and after his usual fashion just what be thinks of thetr \u2018constitution\u2019 and \u2018institutions\u2019 generally.Here are Mr.Burns\u2019s opinions, given by himself briefly and tersely, and we must confess that we think he hits the mark pretty closely, and that if he has seen for himself during his short visit all that he describes be must be what many in England believe him to be, one of the very ablest men of his day : Schools eplendid; libraries excellent; jails too good; roads bad; streets worse; drainage the same; art museums good for the age of the country; corporations exacting, tyrannical and extravagant; railway travelling palatial for the rich, and better than any I have ever seen for the poor; cut off the heads of your newspapers and you have a good carcass left, but still too much of a journalistic slaughterhouse; municipal lite considerably below any in Europe.I like America and shall come here again some day.I think one of these days its municipal institutions, like most of its others, will be the greatest in the worid.The things he hits hardest are the corporations and the municipal life.His witty characterization of the newspapers is good.Like the autocrat this socialist is, he orders: \u2018Off with their heads,\u2019 display headings he means, of here last, did not do justie CL cal qualities of the Knahe os hagen.The Kpabes can I truth: \u2018 Here is an artist \u201c- the full possibilities of our Avi Wednesday was a red letter nit long and honorable career of firm.It was a worthy reat enterprise and thelr UDBUTTHL as plano makers of the ix\u201d Willis & Co.have imported Knabe grands for the mas These pianos should he soo.of wha want an artistic fnstrut: ON less of price.areronms + 12 Dame street.Open at night uit p.m.this month. e ard- otre 1 nine TuyrspAy, Decevser 20, 1894.STEAMER \u2018PERSIA\u2019 SOLD.Taronto, Dec.20.\u2014The mill property be- Jancing to the Norris estate, St.Cath- ~ se.and the steamer \u2018 Persia,\u2019 were \" market displayed a siigatly Sri: CHICAGO MARKETS.The following table shows Lu © prices In Crivago to-day, aid guotaticns as compared wits tae terday .\u2014 Yesterday's To-day's Close.Open.High.Low À = Wheat\u2014 Dec.5413 DA i May HS Py INF ROE July Lady EA Sa Corn\u2014 i} Jan.40 \u20184 40% ay May 4313 448 4533 Outs-\u2014 j Jun.SOY Co 1 May 325 3218 .: Pork\u2014 Jan.11.75 oe.So May 12,07 12.12 12.15 = Lare\u2014 Jan f.£0 een ane May 7.05 7.07 Ehort Ribs\u2014 Jan.5.85 5.99 _ May 6.07 6.10 [I Milwaukee, Dec.20, 1115 ÿ M roe cash, DSyc Mary.1 PE Duluth, Dec.M 115 1 Na.1 hard, 61e Dec.;

Mr.Hamelin asked $332, but took $150; and Mr.Favard accepted $1,872 for a claim of $8,600.-\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 LAID TO REST.The funeral of the late Mr.James Howley took place yesterday.The chief mourners were Mr.J.B.Howley, son of deceased, and Mr.Bartholomew Howley, a brother.Among the others present were noticed Ald.Stevenson, ex-Ald.Donovan, Messts.William Taylor, James Lennon, \\P.J./ Murray, O.Crepeau, M.Diudineen,* P.Tansey, J.H.Ryan, C.Marson, W.Thompson, John Farrel], 8S.G.O'Neil, Beckham, John H.Wood, L.Hughes and Marcil.THE DEAD PREMIER.MEMOIRS BY SIR CHARLES TUPPER A LETTER OF CONDOLENCE FROM FRANCE\u2014 LORD LANSDOWNE'S TRIBUTE TO SIR JOHK THOMPSON'S WOKTH.London, Dec.19.\u20148ir Charles Tupper bas contributed to the \u2018Canadian Gaz- cette,\u201d an article, giving his memoirs of the late Sir John Thompson, in which he says: \u2014\u20181 knew Sir John Thompson since he was a clerk in a lawyer's office in Halifax.Later be was a reporter for the Nova Scotia \u2018Assembly,\u2019 in ' which capacity his work was accurate and admirable.From this pursuit he was called to the Bar, where he showed the greatest acumen, never missing a point.In 1885, when Sir John A.Macdonald offered him the position of Minister of Justice, he listened to all that could be said of the service he might render Canada, but would not leave the Bench except with the concurrence of bis closest friend, the Right Rev.John Cameron, Bishop of Antigonish.\u2019 Sir Charles says that he himself saw the bishop afterwards and that subsequently Sir John accepted the position.\u2018While Sir John was in the Cabinet in 1887-88, great weight was attached to his judgment.He was always genial apd rather diffident, but gave an opinion in no hesitating spirit, and with a wealth of argument and good sense.\u2019 Sir Charles explains that he only accepted the post of plenipotentiary to Washington in the consideration of the Atlantic fisheries question in 1887, upon the condition that Sir John Thompson should accompany him as thz legal adviser of the plenipotentiary.Mr.Jos.Chamberlain and Lord Sackville scon learned to appreciate his command of the question.Mr.Chamberlain telegraphed to Sir Charles Tupper on the day of Sir John Thompson's death, his regrets at his untimely end and referred to the fisheries negotiations at Washington, during which he learned his worth and ability.London, Dec.19.\u2014The ceremony over Sir John Thompson's body at Portsmouth will be almost identical with those at the reception of Peabody's body.All the warships will have their ensigns at half- mast and the officers from them will attend the service.Captain Karslake, of the \u2018Victory,\u201d will supervise the arrangements.The firing will be from the \u2018Victory.\u2019 A letter of regret at the death of the late premier has been received by His Excellency the Governor-General, through Mr.Kleczkowski, resident consul for France in Montreal, from the French Minister of Foreign Affairs, while Lord Sackville and Lord JIansdowne have written in a similar strain to Sir Charles Tupper at London.The latter says, among other things : \u2018His loss is a very great one to the Dominion and the Empire.\u2019 Resolutions of regret have also been passed by the Quebec Harbor Commission, the Levis Town Council! and the Maritime Provinces Association.RESOLUTIONS OF CONDOLENCE.Resolutions of condolence have been passed by the Maritime Provinces Association and the Pharmacy Students\u2019 Association, and forwarded to Lady Thompson.LACHINE TOWN COUNCIL.At a recent meeting of the municipal council of the town of Lachine resolutions were passed expressing profound sorrow at the death of the Right Honorable Sir John Thompson.ares NEW BUILDING BY-LAW.The Fire Committee held a meeting yesterday for the consideration of the draft of the new building by-law as drafted by the Architects\u2019 Association.Messrs.A.C.Hutchison, Raza and Neilson were present representing that body.Mr.Hutchison pointed out that the principal features of the new law were the limits within which certain classes of buildings will be allowed to be constructed, these limits to De changed from time to time; foundations, thickness of walls, partition walls, external walls; the use of iron ard ste:] in the construction of buildings, heating apparatus, roofs, elevators, churches, theatres, and concert halls, the system of lighting, the strength of \u2018floors, etc.They were also in favor of the establishment of a board of appeal of disinterested parties outside of the City Council to whom all objections to the decisions of the Building Inspector could be referred.He algo thought that it would be well to have the plumbing by-law embodied in the building by-law, which is expected to be in force when building operations commence next spring.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014>\u2014\u2014_\u2014\u2014 CITY ITEMS.The friends of the Protestant House of Industry and Refuge, 693 Dorchester street, are respectfully reminded of the usual Christmas dinner for the inmates.donations for which will be thankfully received and duly acknowledged.\u2018A POCKET EDITION OF HELL.MR.JOHN BURNS'S OPINION OF CHICAGO.Chicago, Dec.19.\u2014Mr.John Burns, the London agitator, arrived in Chicago today.There was no demonstration at the depot and no delegation of labor representatives there to meet him.As to bis characterization of Chicago as \u2018À pocket edition of hell,\u2019 he admitted having made the remark, but declared qualified the statement with a complimentary reference to the Art Institute and the police and fire departments.\u2018My remark about Chicago,\u2019 he said, \u2018was based on what I saw in different parts of the city, and the information given me by prominent labor agitators.\u2019 In regard to his criticism in Denver of the American constitution, Mr.Burns sald he the reports sent out by certain papers on .that subject were gross exaggerations of | one of the most plearant evenings he hod! ever spent in his life.He sald he declared that considering all the changes that had heen in America since the pre- industrial period, was framed, he thought there advantageously be made some change in it in accordance with the increased love cf liberty of the American people.Agit stood now, it was the best constitution ever written, but that did not mean it could not be improved upon.Mr.Burns stated his opinion of the country was, as far as ha has scen it, as follows: \u2018Schools splendid; excellent; jails too good; roads streets worse; drainage the same; museums good for the age of the country; corporations exacting, tyrarnical and extravagant; railway travelling palatial for the rich, and better than any I have ever seen for the poor; cut off the heads of your newspapars and you have a good .carcass left, but still too much of a journalistic slaughterhouse; municipal .life considerably below any in Europe.I lke America and shall come here again some day.I think one of these days îts municipal institutions, like most of its others, will be the greatest in the ' world.\u2019 Mr.Burns said he was pleased with the American Federation of Labor.He approves the counting of votes according to representation.He Judge Woods's finding in the Debs cas?as improper, and thought it would bring about a revulsion of f{feellng among the, mirror classes and the higher classes.| \u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 \u2018 STILL STRUGGLING.might pad;
