nor have they given judgments which were contradictory.When these differed it was because points in the case were at variance and not the opinions of the judges.WATER CONTAMINATION.Sues Municipality o Cartierville.- Ratepayers Mr.J.A.Bisonnette, of Cartierville, filed a petition in the Practice Court this morning, asking the isue of a writ of mandamus \u2018against the Cartier- ville Municipal Council.The petitioner sets forth that the municipality is furnished with water by the Saraguay Electric & Water Company by means an inlet from the Riviere des Prairies of an inlet from the River des Prairies, near the mouth of a stream emptying into the same river.Since the opening of that inlet, the local corporation established a sewerage 'system by means of which the contents of the sewers were pumped into a basin and filtered before being allowed to run into the stream.\"This system was in use up to six months ago, but it is alleged that, since then, the sewers have been allowed to empty direct into the stream.This, the petitioner complains, contaminates the water in the river, renders it unfit for domestic use, and constitutes a danger for public health.He therefore asks a writ of mandamus to force the municipality to again make use of their basin and ters.A NEW TRIBUNAL.To Releive Congestion in \u201che +.Superior Court, Telia cfm ih At the opening of the October term of the Superior Court a new system will be inaugurated, with a view to relieve the present.congested condition of the rolls and help the hearing of the several hundred cases.now standing in arrear.: Two judges, one English and thé other French speaking, will be put in charge of the privileged and summary casés.\u2018 «The calling and distribution of those cases will 11ke place in court room No.20, and the roll will, each day, .nclude a larger number of cases than the ordinary roll.This new tribunal will be almost equivalent to a regular commercial court, and the natural effect will be to leave more.time to the other judges tu deal with the ordinary cases, and a reduction of the congestion must necessarily follow.The October term will last from th 10th to the 28th.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 \"GOLF SEMI-FINALS, Brookline, Mass., September 16\u2014 When the forenoon round of 18 holes in the somi-finals at 86 holes of the National Amat:ur Golf Championship tournament at the Country Club was ended to-day, tn: two representatives of Chicago were somewhat behind their opponents \u2018from Pittsblrg and Stockbridge, respectively.Ww.C.Fownes, jr., of the Oakmont Club, Pittsburg, was one up on Charles Evans, jr., of the Edgewater Club.Chicago, while W.R.Tuckerman, of Stockbridge and Washington, had a lead of 4 up over Warren K.Wood, of the Homewood (Club, Chicago.Three of the players rhowed the effects of the four days\u2019 contest, and made the first 18 holes in worse than 80, but Tuckerman was strong and finished the round with a fine 77.Evans, although with enly three years\u2019 experience, played a good game against the veteran Fownes, and they were never mu.thon a hole part.Tuckerman proved too much for Wood, and was uell ahead when the round ended.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 EARL GREY AT QUEREC.Quehec, Sept.16.\u2014 His Excellency Ear] Grev.accompanied by Countess Grey.arrived here by special car from Sydney this morning.The party immediately repaired to the Governor- General's quarters at the Citadel.Earl Grey will remain here for about a fortnight.: CONVICT ESCAPED.Toronto, Sept.16.\u2014John Burnett, alias Thompson escaped from Toronto jail vesterdayv afternoon.He was serving a three months sentence for theft.At the time of His escape he was engaged in constructing a picket fence on the jail grounds.pn LADY'S SUDDEN DEATH.Death name verh suddenly last evening tn Mrs.David A.Thomson, relict of the late David A.Thomson, of Ainslie road, montreal West.The deceased, who mas 75 years of age, lfas Iving down when, almost without warning, she passed away.Three sons.all in brsiness in Montreal, and one daughter, living at home survive her.: Fr CA.\u2014AN LATE D SV Law, YOUNG Ni Giana & CO.a ro \u2014OF LONDON\u2014 .$0DA WATER, DRY GINGER ALE GINGER BEER SPECIALLY BREWED FOR EXPORT, EPPES \u2018Pope Fisher, member of the firm -of _mingford.ee S = 4 due The Rex.Dr, jand Mrs.\" Symonds and family have returned to the city from Knowlton, ce Mrs.Percy R!

Court of King's Bench y7 terday; a prisoner convicted of the \u2018murder of two constables pleading for his life\u2019 from the dock and a judge wearing the black cap for the first time weeping copiously as he sobbed out the death sentence.Who is there but pities the condemned criminal at any such time ?In \u201cthis case, the r-rderer told a remarkable story, and told it with terrible earnestness.He told that he had.been tempted to steal by the keeper of a second-hand store.We are not presuming to say whether the story is true or not, but the tragic events which found a climax in that scéne in court raise one point that caiaot be ignored.There is little doubt that without second- hard stores in which to dispose of the booty, there would be fewer thefts.There are doubtless many honest sec- \u2018ond-hand dealers, but there are many dizhonest ones, who, if they do not incite to theft, at least buy goods from people that they riust recognize as thieves.When seedy-looking -indivi- duals take new: goods into such places to dispose of.an honest dealer would be on his guard at unce.The tragedy of Timothy Candy.should stimulate the police authorities to exercise greater supervision over such places.As it is now, there seems to be too much\u2019 friendship between the two classes \u2014 the police, relying on the good-will of dealers.in helping them to recover stolen gnods, wink at their ways, rather than hold them to their L asio-ally large share of the responsibility for crime.' pente tual values instead of rental values was founded on a report in more than \u2018one paper, that the Westmount Council had passed a resolution transferring the water rate from the annual value of properties to the rental values, thus exempting unimproved properties.We are assured that the resolution in question.had no reference to the water rates, which have always been, and still are.assessed on the rental.It was bas- assessment some annual vaiues certain delicate circumstances.\u2019 city The Daily Witness Guiana, British Honduras,British North | Messen- |\u2019 know much about mining advertisinæ, \u201cj The only solution for Our recent argument for taxing aced on-the belief that in the regular.were assessed too low as the rentals proved.The tendency of the assessors seems to have been to relieve improvements to some extént of the extra wilue they put upon the property, whereas the council, by its résolution, instructed them to value the property to the full value of the Imprôvements, as shown by the rentals.The \u2018principle of our strictures holds good though the circumstances séem to have been entirely different from those reported.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 vo © MARITIME REPRESENTATION.Representation in\u2019 proportion to pôpulation was certainly the prineiple of the British North America Act, which is the charter of our federal conatitution.One voter was -to count for as much as another voter.To this principle Nova Scotia and New Brins- wick, through their representatives, agreed from the first, and Prince Ed- \u2018ward Island later.We dare not say that Nova Scotia herself agreed \u2018to it, for she dismissed the men who had carriéd her into the federal union as soon as she had an opportunity to do so.principle of representation in proportion to pcpulation was ever questioned in that quarter.Indeed, in the abstract, it would be pretty hard to assail it.The way in which it was arranged that this principle should be maintained was \u2018that Quebec should älways have sixty-five members, and that the other provinces\u2019 should , be represented in proportion to their population.If they gained in proportion to Quebet they should have more.If they lost in proportion to Quebec they should have less.We presume \u2018the Maritime Provinces assumed that they could hold their own with Quebec, i not gain upgn her.fallen out they have, through the western trend of their own \u2018people, the default of immigration and the reduction of natural increase, gone behind Quebec, which is strong in na- .tural increase, but which owes most 01 her comparative advance to the great growth of her cities.Nothing is more natural than that the smaller provinces should be greatly chagrined to see their small repre- \"sentation in Parliament growing less and should have been gathered in council to form a firm combination to demand that the constitution should be altered before the redistribution of seats which must follow on the census :of next yéar.Their demand will be that the representation of those three provinces shall never fall below the figures on which they entered confederation.This means that Maritime voters shall count for more, man for man, than thoz> of the other provinces.This is not a new thing in Canadian history.At the time of the union of names of Canada West and Canada East, the upper province was much over-represented, its rapid prospective growth being taken into account.That rapid growth soon turned the -scales, and it was the.Province of -C-eblen that was More and more over- \u2018represented.\u2018Against this Canada \"West, under George Brown, revolted, and demanded what came, in the political jargon of .re day, to be called rep.by pop.This was resisted by Lower Canada and the result was a deadlock between the two provinces.\u2018As né government could hold office without a majority in both, it became \u2018impossible to carry on the government.this impasse .was federation with the other provinces.In view of the large.measure \"of provincial autonomy thus accorded her, Canada East, now Quebec, accepted the principle of representation \u201cby population, which was fallen in with by all the others.It is now the seaward provinces that \u2018are demanding a departure from this \u201cprinciple.The representatives who have been rm .oting claim to have strong arguments to urge in Parlia- they held their council in secret and \u2018refuse to divulge these.Possibly the one strong argument, always a potent one in Parliament, however little it may appeal to.the reason, will be a combination of the lower province vote to insist upon it.This might be calléd thé argument of the highway: man.If there are other and better \u2018arguments, it will be interesting to hear them.\u2018vinces, as provinces, will no doubt be urged, just as the smallest state in the neighboring union has as many senators as the largest, simply because it is a state, © Provincialism has hitherto been a very strong sentiment \u2018in all parts of Canada, and its de- \u2018fenders will no doubt attach some im- portanée to the claim that certain regions which have been taken into -partnership as provinces should not, \u2018as such, become insignificant in the popular house.It will no doubt also phould consider the wisdom of casting in her lot with the Dominion such a cils as the present constitution has to offer her would be a poor encouragement to such a union.The demand of these provinces is not that their.representation at federation shall continue forever.It is only that it should never fall under what it now .is.Should they take a turn and, instead of losing in proportion, to Quebec, Bain \u2018upon her, as from the experience of Sydney in Nova Scotia seems far from impossible, they will then become as stout advocates of rep.by pop.as ever was Canada West.\u2014 psn \" PRIVILEGE.AND DEBASEMENT.To what lengths privileged interests will go is shown In extreme form in the case of the sugar frauds.Yet as a caricature is sometimes more !llum- inating as to character than a portrait, so this case shows graphically the sort of character which \u2018privilege\u2019 brings into being.\u2018To speak bacteriologically, privilege is a culture for the bacteria of selfishness, lying, and grasping fraud.The wealth that the sugar men got that it not only gave them a tasts for more, but gave them an idea that they were a law unto themselves, and that But we do not remember that the.As it has | .Upper and Lower Canada, under the {lic and for their own material and ment in support of their demand,

purchase thieves in a wholesale fashion .with impunity.While we do not believe that there are many privileged corporations 80 vile as the United States Sugar Trust is found to have been, we do know that some of them have done things In secret which they would not have ventured to do if they had had the fear before them \u2018hat those things would be made public.Mr.Murray, for instance, comptroller of the United States national banks, in making a large number of changes in the staff of inspectors, is Teported as saying that in almost every case of a nationai bank failure since hé assumed office, insolvency could have beén averted had the examiner determined the tru: conditions and reported.his findings, as he should have been compétent enough and honest enough to do.Mr.H.C.McLeod, ex-manager of the Bank of Nova Scotla, gave an unmistakable warning of what he fears If our banks are not to be submitted to independent Inspection, and he resigned his position as general manager of the Bank \u2018of Nova Scotia because he prefers to be out of banking under\u2019 present .conditions.un = In a letter dated Nov.22, 1906, and written to the Toronto \u2018Globe Mr.Me- Leod commends the Canadian banking system, especially for its elastic note currency and the branch features which enable new districts readily tn be given banking facilities; but he considers the absencé of inspection a defect of vital importance.The reasonableness of a demand for inspection is, he states, made clear by a review of Camadian banking history since 1880, and before, and.is confirmed by the experiences of our \u2018near neighbor: prior to the civil war.We quote the following from Mr.McLeod's \u2018pampHlet: \u2018In.1880 there were in existence \u201cin Canada forty-one banks; since then \u2018seven have been incorporated and \u201chave commenced business, making a \u2018total of forty-eight banks.Of this \u2018total \u2018twelve have failed and some\u2019 \u2018others have saved themselves by \u2018amalgamation.- The failures are, \u2018therefore, twenty-flve percent wirhi-.\u201ca period of twenty-six years, the last \u201cten of which were years of unexam- \u2018pled prosperity, with steadily rising \u2018 deposits, conditions under which even \u2018insolvent banks seldom close their \u2018doors.\u2019 Most, if not all,-of the above-men- tioned failures were, says Mr.Mc- Leod, fraudulent.It is now plainly evident, he asserts, that a few hours\u2019 examination by a skilled banker would have disclosed an insolvent condition in any one of these banks years before it collapsed.= \u2018In each of the two \u2018most recent disasters a correct diag- \u2018nosis could have been made ten or \u2018more years ago.Some urge that the \u2018government should eall for special re- \u2018turns, but what value should attach \"to special returns from the Bank of \u2018 Yarmouth, from the Ontario Bank, or \u2018from any of the other wrecks gine \u201cbefore ?They would simply have en- \u2018larged the piles of \u201cincorrect \u2018and de- \u2018ceptive bank returns in the Finance \u2018Department.\u2018What is written by \u2018one having unusual facilities for ob- \u2018servation is eminently true: \u201cTt ie \u2018 \u201cextremely rare to find a hank has \u2018\u201cfajled without Some of the officers \u2018

and Says Shooting Was Accidental.Timothy Candy will suffer the death penalty on.November 18 next, unless executive clemency intervenes.At the close of his trial for the murder cf Constables O'Connell and Fortin a verdict of \u2018guilty\u2019 was unanimously rendered.by the mixed jury which had tried the prisoner, and Judge St.Pierre pronounced the séntence of death.The close of the trial was both sen4 It was the first time in\u2019 his life that- Mr.Justice St.Pierre had been.called upon to pronounce the death penalty, and he felt his position very keenly.\u2018It is with a broken heart that I con- demrn\u2019 you to.death, Candy, but I cannot do otherwise; the law demands it,\u2019 he exclaimed in a voice choked with sobs.- .The sensation was provided by Candy himself.The jury had been out only about twelve minutes when it was announced that they were ready to give their\u2019 verdict.The evidence was so clear and the judge's charge so definite that, in the absence of any defence, everybody was prepared for the verdict rendered.Judge Sicotte, clerk: of the Crown and Peace, having repeated the jury's decision, informed the prisoner that if he had any remarks to make he \u2018would now be heard.Summoning all the nerve that was left in him to his aid Candy replied earnestly, but calmly, that \u2018he wished \u2018to tell his story, which would be the truth, about.the unfortunate affair.No one present, he said, had seen the fatal row or knew precisely how the shooting occurred, and there were facts connected with the affair that, in justice to himself, should be known.At 3.30 o'clock on proceeded, he went to the store of Louis Cohen, the principal witness against him, tm look at some watches.He picked out one worth $4.50, but had not the money to pay for it as he had only commenced working at the Ames- Holden factory a few days before.Mr.Cohen, on hearing where he wags employed, told him, he declared, that he could have the watch if he made a small deposit on it.But he had not even enough money to spare to do that and said he would call again.Cohen (according to Candy) then suggested that the latter steal goods from his employers and bring them in payment for the watch.\u2018You are often alone at nights; are you not?queried Cohen, and on receiving an affirmative reply, he had said, \u2018I will call and see you at, the factory in the evening.\u2019 The same night, Candy declared, Cohen visited the factory at the corner of Inspector and Lagauchetiers streets.Hearing the door bell Ting at about a quarter to nine o'clock he answered it, and let Cohen in.Cohen brought a big with him, and.after a short conversation, asked the prisoner to get him some \u2018boots.-Rubber ones, he Suggested, would bring the best price.\u201cCandy said he told Cohen to go to a box near by and help himself, which he did.Candy declared that he never touched the boots.Cohen then asked Candy to follow him to his store on St.James street, a little east of the Bonaventure station.Candy replied that he had to make another round of the factory and punch his clocks first.This done he went to Cohen's store.\u2018While they were talking about the price of the boôts, Cohen saw the detective outside, looking in at the window.He told the prisaner that he could dé nothing while the police were about.t migh me leave the bag here, and I will come back again\u2019 But Cohen was afraid and said, \u2018Come with me next door, and my friend will buy the boots) So Candy took up the bag and was following Cohen to the neighboring.store when the detective stopped him.\u2018I was led into a trap like a tiger might be,\u2019 exclaimed Candy in concluding that part of his story._ The.second part of the account was even more dramatic and equally inter- \u20ac After describing how the detective had looked into the bag and requested him to accompany him to the Chaboillez street station Candy said: \u2018O\u2019Connell took hold of the bag with his right hand and seized me with the left, and Constable Fortin caught hold of my left arm at the back, with the back of my hana touching the back of my neck, and forced me to go.I was struggling to get away, saying to Fortin te leave my hands alone and I would go quietly But no, that was not done.They were not satisfied with that.O'Conneli dropped the baz in the middle of St.James street, where someone must have carried it on to Chaboillez street after.It was not dropped in Chaboillez street at all; it was dropped in St.James street.O'Connell caught my right hand, twisting it up, but not so hard as Fortin did.He then left go and turned to Fortin on the left side, and hit me under the jaw when he found I was struggling.\u2018I got restive at this moment, and not thinking for one moment that the revolver had ball cartridge in it, I pulled it with my free hand and fired in the air to frighten the officers.The ball \u2018struck Constable Fortin in the head, but I had no intention of shooting any one.I put the weapon back into my right coat pocket and O'Connell grasped my hand to take the revoiver from me.In the struggle it was dis4 charged and the bullet, it seems, entered O'Connell's body.\u2019 ; \u2018The prisoner here exhibited to the court \u2018the right lower corner of his coat, showing the hole hurned, and \u2018perforated through the pocket lining, and the spot in the cloth, since darned up, through which the bullet passed.Candy declared that he had never received any definite instructions as to the use of the revolver or how it was charged.1 \u2018This is the whole truth from beginning to end, believe me.Now, as I am sO near to my death, there is no truth can be said any more and 1] have said if I am to die, I will die an [innocent man of wilful murder, Your Lordship.Mr.Papineau Mathieu, counsel for Candy, moved that, in view of the facts stated before the Court, and which had not come out in the evidence, sentence should not be peo- nounced at the present time.Mr.Justice St.Pierre decided that so far as this court was concerned the prisoner's statement could have no effect, being no justification for, the crime, and sentence must be pronounced as requested by the Crown.SENTENCE \u2018 PRONOUNCED.His Lordship then said: \u2018Timothy Candy, it is the first time in my life, which has been a very eventful one, that I have been called upon to.pronounce the sentence I am about to pronounce.- \u2018It is almost with a\u2019 broken heart that I pronounce it.Coe \u201c*The explanation you have just given May 6, Candy.as it might | Candy said, \u2018Let | 1 Ewing, Frederic is no plea of justification in your favor.You lately came from the old country, and you had been entrusted by a large establishment here with the care of their stock.You had been given a weapon even, in order that you might defend yourself, and to defend the property confided to your care._ This was a proof of trust of peoble who knew, indeed, very little about you.Why did not you respond to the confidence which was there shown to you?Instead of that you constituted yourself the \u2018ver violator of the trust which had been given to you.You say someone enticed you to take away the property.of which you were the guardian, that someone enticed you to steal it.Was not your duty to repel the temptation and report the proposals of the men, whoever they might be, who had tried to induce you to break your trust ?You spoke in a feeling manner of à poor woman and children on the other side of the Atlantic.At this present moment, and when I am speaking to you I have in my pocket letters coming from them, from your poor wife, calling upon me.to show you mercy.What mercy can I show you?\u2018You have violated the law of the land, and you have killed two men voluntarily and willingly and wickedly.Do you know what you have done ?Do you know that you on your side caused sorrow and despair in two familles ?Do you know that at that time one poor old man was depending upon his son for hig living, and that you killed that son?Do you know that a poor woman and children were .| depending upon the other man, whom you also slaughtered on that occasion when you were betraying your trust and being a thief, instead of being a man who should have kept his trust in the establishment which had been given to you to \u2018care for?Do you know that ?And yet that is what you have done.- What mercy can you claim ?Besides, the law does not give me the privilege of giving you any.My only duty is to pronounce the awful sentence which I must pronounce with a broken heart, and here is the sentence: \u2018It is considered and adjudged and ordered by the court that you, Tmiotay Candy, be taken hence to the common jail of the district, fromm whence you came, and that on Friday, the 18th day of November next, at the place of execution of this district, you be there hanged by the neck until you are dead, and may God have mercy upon your soul.\u2019 His Lordship's voice as he spoke the closing words ef the sentence was ald most inaudible, and he was quite overcome by emotion.This, with the prisoner weeping in the dock, and several women sobbing aloud in another part of the court, constituted a very pathetic ending to a trial that has extended over four days practically without incident.The prisoner, after recovering from a breakdown in the early part of his statement, when his wife was mentioned, bore up well till all was over.A few minutes later a cab drove up to the Court House and the condemned man was taken to the Montreal jail.As the vehicle turned into Notre Dams street two women pressed close to thy carriage and waved their farewell to the prisoner till he was out of sight, MACDONALD COLLEGE.Large Attendance
