London, Oct.20.\u2014The Hon.Clifford ifton, asked by the Canadian Associated to express his views regarding the Alaskan boundary award just made, said the award substantially favored the United States all along the line.We, it is true, have succeeded in establishing two of our main contentions, first, Portland Canal, and second, the existence of the mountain boundary line, but while finding in favor of our contentions upoh these phases of the case, the tribunal has worked out a line in such a way as to deprive us of all practical benefit.While we get Pearse and Wales islands, which the Americans have been in possession of for some gears, they are deprived of value to by the fact that two islands which lie immediately outside, commanding the entrance to Observatory Inlet a Port Simpson, are given to the United States.do not profess to understand the principle upon which these islands are given away.mountain line, while zdopted as contended for Capada, is drawn so far back that the United States geta practically all that she has seriously contended for.As to our position on the sub- ect of the heads of inlets, it has evidently received no consideration from a majority of the tribunal.Have you anything to say regarding the conduct of the case by the representatives of the United States?I have to say that the agent and counsel for the United States acted with perfect courtesy and good faith throughout.ve you anything to say rega the, merits of the % ne 0.CANADIAN STATEMENT.(Canadian Associated Press.) London, Oct.20.\u2014Sir Louis Jetté and Mr.A.B.Aylesworth, the two Cans- n Commissioners, who refused to- sign the Alaskan boundary award issued the following statement: » bave \u201c ecision of the Alaskan boundary tribunal has been given ee { iven, and i of its chamster the people of U which their interests the dealt hic eir interests, hav, en t with.We take\u2019 the ass of the decision in #he order presented in the treaty by which the tribunal was constituted.\u2018 Portland Canal.There are two channeis parallel to each other with four islands lying between them.The Canadian contention®was that the northern \u2018channel be adopted.The United States contended fof the southern channel.If the Canadians succeeded it would give Canada the four islands which lie opposite the southern shore of Observatory Inlet and the harbor dt.Port Simpson.I$ the Uni@«l States succeeded it would give them these four islands from the sea inward, Kannaghunut, Sit- klan, Wales and Pearse islands.When the members of the tribunal met attet the argument and considered this ques tion the view of the three British commissioners was that the Canadian contention was.absolutely unanswerable.\u2018A memorandum was prepared and read to the commissioners, embodying: our views and showing it to be beyond dispute that the Canadian contention in this branch of the case should pre vail and that the boundary should run to the northward of the four islands pamed, thus giving them to Canada.Notwithstanding these facts the members of the tribunal other than ourselves have now signed the award giving the two ialands of Kannaghunut and Sit klan to the United States.The islands are the outermost of the four.Th command the entrance to Channel, to Observatory Inlet and the ocean 2 to Port Simpson.Their oss wholly destroys 8 gic va.to Canada of Wales and Pearse Islands.In our opinion no process of reasoning, whereby the line is thus decided upon by the tribunal, can be justified.It was never suggested by counsel in the courde of argument that such a-line was possible.Either the four islands belong to Canada or belong to the United States.In the award rd Alverstone agrees with the United States Commissioners that the islands should be divided, giving the two which possess strategic value to: the United States.\u2018Second, he line northward from Portland Channel.Substantially the Canadian contention was that there were mountains parallel to the coast within the meaning of the treaty of 1825, and the tops of such mountains should be declared the boundary, mountains nearest the sea being taken.The United Btates contention was that there wore uo mountains parallel to the coast within the meaning of the treaty, and the boundary line, therefore, must be fixed under the provision of the original treaty relating to ten leagues or thirty- five miles, and so run the distance thirty-five miles from shore, ineluding in the term \u2018shore,\u2019 all inlets, bays, ete.\u2018The tribupal finds the Canadian contention correct as to the existence of mountains within the terms of the treaty, but the fruits of the victory are taken fram Canada by fixing.as the mountain line, the row of mountains so far from the coast as to give the United tates substantially nearly all the territory in dispute around Lwnn Canal.The line will follow the watershed somewhat in accordance with the pre- tent provisional boundary.\u201cFe are of the opinion that the moun- Portland named in order as thev un | L Great Britain had, 16.Other toasts were \u2018Sister Councils,\u2019 -

Kenatoshe, xow in jail, for the value of some waod cut by | tne chief from a lot occupied by a French-Canadian named Brisebois.The Indians contended that they owned the whole seigneury and that Brisebois could not acquire a valid title from the £em- inary.To When the action for damages was call: ed in.court Chief Gabriel was advised by friends not to appear before the court, under the pretension that the In dians were in the position of minors ot wards and.to appear would be to admit that they were subject to the jurisdiction of the court.sequently rendered against Chief Ga briel -by default, for the damages and eo subsequent execution issued, seizing his waggons and effects, and his brother, Ignace, was appointed guardian of the same.Chief briel, \u2018lowever, moved his effects across the line and went to England to urge the rights of the Indians before the King.As Ignace could uot produce the goods under seizure, when.required he -was arrested and plac ed in jail.\u2018While the amount involved is a at he and ea et easily satisfy: claim, they.obj to doit 90 op \u201cthe ground would bea recognition of the Sete the.wl ipan upon e he rd four months in Pf is there, if necessary, for the Bander of his fife.i .Under the writ of habeas corpus is sued some days ago the jailer brought the prisoner before Lhe Court to-day.to show cause why he should detain Kena- tosse longer in jail.Mr.¥.H.Markey and Mr, W ko Sinner, of the firm of mith, rl ontgomery, thereupon moved for the discharge of the prisen- er, \u2018urging the following reaions therefor: \u201cThe petitioner is illegally deprived \u2018of his liberty and is entitled to dis charged m custody because neither the rule nisi nor the warrant of arrest gave him the option of paying the value of the goods which have disappeared, which amount should have been speciti- 4 named; \u2018That the warrant for petitioner\u2019s arrest was addressed to the bailiffs of tbe district instead of the sheriff; \u2018That a bailiff of the Superior Court had no right to arrest the petitioner; \u201c \u201cThat more than one year had elnpsed since it was pretended the petitioner | was appointed guardian, to wit, May 2, 1902; and even if he .ever been appointed guardian he is di Jiarged at the end\u2019 of the year and absolved from all responsibility of producing the said goods now.Mr.Markey argued at some length that the Superior Court had jutisdiction upon a writ of habeas corpus to revise the judgment of the Circurt Court condemning Kenatosse to jail.The question has been much debated in judgments for many years but the weight of recent decision, he observed, had been in favor of allowing the writ of habeas corpus.Mr.Markey, continuing, id that, by an ordinance of the King of France, then reigning, waich he pretended was still in force in this country, a guardian received an.absolute discharge at the ex- iration of one year and he could net \u2018he.detained after the expiration of that period.Mr.Skinner followed and u that smatosse.should Have been given the b= of paying for the goods; that no amount having been mentioned in the warrant it is impossible to settle with the plaintiff; that the bailff, sherff or clerk of the court cannot assess the valne and a vindictive plaintiff might re- 1 to take any sum in discharge of the \u2018debt.After a full reply by Mr.J.Dl Léduc on behalf of Brisebois, the judge reserved his decision.\"MOUNTAIN CLIMBERS MR.AND MRS.BULLOCK WORKMAN SURPASS THE WORLD'S RECORD.London, Oct.20.\u2014Mr.and Mrs.Bullock Workman have assed the world\u2019s.record in high climbing in the Himalayas.Together \u201chey reached a \u2018height of 22,568 feet.Mr.Workman ascended 23,34 feet.Previous cmfwyp v \u2018cended 23,394 feet.The previous record for a woman was 21,000 feet, made by Judgment was con | that to do.mi\u201d maintain what$.Sarmined od = elximéd to bs The Indians rights, ml Pricz Oxz Cry.| CHINAMEN\u2019S TROUBLES TWO OF THOSE ARRESTED IN BOSTON RAID WILL BRING SUIT FOR DAMAGES.Boston, Mass, Oct.20.\u2014Yee Chin and Lue Hee Fong, two of the China men who were arrested in the raid of a week ago, now claim to be American- born citizens.Chin says that he was born thirty years in San i and spent his childhood there to Boston eight years his arrest keenly, and wi the city for $10,000 for false afrest.Fong also claims to have documentary proof that he was born in San Francisco, snd will likewise enter suit.Many of the ministers of the city yesterday denounc- from ther pulpits the action of the authorities in their unwarrantable raid.ler KILLED INSTANTLY coming go.He feels il sue SUPERINTENDENT OF GODERICR ELEVATOR & TRANSIT COMPANY LOSES HIS LIFE.Goderich, Ont., Oct.20.\u2014Fred Love, engineer and superintendent of the God- erich Elevator Transit Company, was instantly killed yeaterday afternoon.The \u2018Newmount\u2019 was unloading a cargo of wheat at the time, and the steam shovels were in use.One of the ropes regulating the shovels was lying slack between the elevator and the vessel, and Mr.Love muet have stepped across it, when the rope suddenly bacame taut and threw the unfortunate man up and between a pair of drums, on which the ropes are wound.His skull was severely crushed and his left leg was broken.Deceased leaves & widow and four children.CARPENTERS STRIKE WINNIPEG MEN WANT A NINE.HOUR DAY AND THIRTY-FIVE CENTS AN HOUR.Winnipeg, Oct.20.\u2014At a secret mass meeting of carpenters held here it was decided late last night to go on strike to-day for a mine-bour day at thirty-five cents an hout.Kleven hundred ers and Joiners will be fete is will serio embarrass the large number of building operations now in pro gress.SULTANA MINE © .nouncement that the vein has been fornd in the grest Sultana mien.and that\u2019 operations in the mine will sobh be tn full: blset spin, This a = t deal to Eat Po for ever: Be je has been closed mining eper- ations.haye.been paral : : effect on business has been bad indedds .MRS, JANE DARCH DEAD TREASURER OF THE LONDON W.C.'T.U.PASSES AWAY, \u2014 London, Ont, Oct.20\u2014 Jane Darch, treasurer of the local W.N and widely known in temperance.died here early yesterday, whe unexpectedly.She was well advanesd in years.UNITED, STATES AND CUBA EXTRAORDINARY SESSION TO BE CALLED ON NOV, 9, Washington, Oct.20.\u2014The Pre to-day issued a proclamation calling 58th Congress in extraordinary mes on Nov.9, at twelve o'clock.peo clamation states that tbe purpose.tbe session is to consider the commeretal convention between the United States and Cuba, which requires the approval of Congress.STILL SUSPECTED HENRI BASOT ESTABLISHES AN ALIBI IN THE FOUGERE MURDER CASE.Paris, Oct.20.\u2014Henri Basot, who accused of the murder at Aix-Les- Inst month of Eugenie Fougere, has es tablished an alibi, but notwithstanding this he is ted of being an accomplice in the crime.tt COOLER WEATHER Meteorological Office, Toronto, Oct.2, 11 ee ovins are the maximum and minimum pee td au: ' ile, 62-38;

better class of immigrants than ever before.And the season, which formerly was confined to a few months, might now be satd to be pretty nearly all the year round.Our winters had had the sting taken out for the immigrants, to a large extent, by the letters which had been written home, by people in this country and which did much to counteract the possible effects of Kipling\u2019s poem, \u2018Our

DOLLARS WORTH OF SILKS AND FURS._Beven thousand dollars worth of furs, silks, millinery and other dry goods were recovered yesterday at 23 Arcade street by Chief Carpenter and his men.Part of the goods had been stolen on Thureday night last, from the store of.Chaleyer and Orkin, importers of silks and ribbons at 1827 Notre Dame street, On Friday morning when\u201d Mr.Orkin went to the store he found the articles missing.A door leading to the basement had been forced.He at once notitied the detective department and the manager of the Dominion Burglary Guarantee Company.Detectives Cote and Lescarbeau were placed on the case.They went to all the express and freight offices in the city, and learned that early on Friday morning an ex\u2019 press waggon had been standing in front of Chaleyer and Orkin\u2019s store.The detectives lly traced the men who had the waggon to 23 Arcade street.\u201cThe house was watched, and on yesterday Chief Carpenter deemed the time ripe to raid it.In the afternoon the Chief, Detective Sergeant Charpentier and Detectives Riopel, Judd, Giguere and\u2019 Trudel went to the house armed with a search warrant.The officers were disposed round the place in such manner as to cut off the exit of any one attempting to escape.The Chief entered alone, and walked straight through to the kitchen and thence to a room leading off the kitchen, where he\u2019 found a man and woman packing dry goods in a large box.Scattered around the room were bundreds of yards .of valuable silks and sateens, furs, feathers, and a miscellaneous quantity of dry goods.To say that the inmates were surprised is to put it mildly.To the Chief the man gave his name as Abrahams.Later he admitted his name was Charles Dorfman, and that the woman was his wife.Chief Carpenter and Detective-Sergeant Charpentier, \u2018after leaving the remaining detectives to watch the house, brought Dorfman to a factory, where his father and brother- in-law were working.These were also placed under arrest.Some.of the goods found on the premises had been stolen over a year ago, from the stores of William Agnew & Co., and O.Norman- din, on St.Lawrence street.: The two Dorfmans and Haddis were before Judge Lafontaine this morning, and were remanded.They pleaded not guilty and were remanded till Friday.¢« BLASPHEMY.\u2019 .SUCH WAS THE TITLE OF DR.DOWIE\u2019S

no redness or hardness.The part is, however, quite swollen so that she cannot wear a boot and causes muca pain on walking.The trouble has lasted now for three months.Ans.\u2014It fa bard to say exartly what js the trouble without seeing the foot.Cases similar to yours have been caused by what is knows as flat-foot.Look at the foot when you ere standin in your bare feet, and see if the arch of the foot on the inner side is properly preserved, or if the arch has sunk too near the ground.This, \u2018if present, would cause much pain and swelling.Should you find this to be the case you had better see your local doctor, for you would probably need to have the foot put up in plaster bandages or have some sort of support fitted.A simple way to test if & support is needed is to place within the stocking and under the arch of the foot a pad composed of some firm material, AFTER EFFECTS OF GRIPPE.\u2018Subscriber's Daughter.'\u2014 A middle-aged woman had grippe in May, with congestion of

for some years by the ears becoming filled with wax to such a degree that bearing was imperfect.Has been obliged to have the ears syringed out with bot water and the wax removed.Asks for some method of preventing the wax forming.Ans.\u2014Wax is formed in tbe ear passage as a natural process by the secretion of certain glauds.Excessive secretion is due in some cases at least to inflammation of the middle or inner ear, or the excess may be due to an outgrowth or other obstruction in the external passage preventing the proper.cleansing of the ear.There is no way wf dealing with the trouble so far as preventing it goes\u201d except by scrupulous attention to cleansing the ear passage.Night and morning gently remove the wax with a small bit of cotton wool on the end of a match.This must be done very gently so as not to irritate the tissues.If the wax ix hard it may be softened by pouring in a flew drops of warm sweet oll or the following mixture : Blearb8nate of soda, thirty grains; glycerine, one drachm ; distilled water, one ounce.FLUSHING OF THE FACES.A.has for two years been troubled with a severe rushing of the blood to the face.Every few minutes the flushing will occur and this will go on for a week at a time followed by a few days\u2019 rest.The flushing will then return and is always accompanied by peeling of the skin of the face.Is in good health otherwise.Ans.\u2014 You do not mention your age or sex.1f & woman about middle age it would be well to consult a physician as probably ordinary home remedies would not be of much benefit.Otherwise, if of full habit, it will be of advantage to relleve the bowels every second or third day with § moderately large dose of Epsom \u2018salts.Bathing the face for two minutes at a time alternately with hot and cold water will tone the vessels of the skin and tend to relleve the condition.You should also take life easily and avold worry as far as possible.ANAEMTA.\u2018Otter.\u2019\u2014Daughter has anaemia for which she bas been taking medicine by physi- clan's prescription.She has latterly dlseon- tinued it although it was doing her good.Asks if she should continue it.Also, a daughter, aged eighteen, who had pleurisy for some months.She is in good health now although there is a little soreness in thé side.Asks if she should take cream, cod liver oll or other remedies.Ans.\u2014 With regard to anaemia most people make the mistake of not continuing treatment long enough.In an ordinary case medicine should be taken steadily for a month or six weeks.She should certainly continue with the remedy until she is quite cured.It the other daughter feels well and strong again she does not need to take medicine.Probably a little exercise, such as walking or expanding the lungs for a few minutes at a time \u2018will gradually overcome the soreness.Applications of a mild emmonia or turpentine liniment to the side would help it.INFORMATION WANTED.C.A.J.asks for the name of any firm or person in Toronto

the English people latently desired it, and the Canadian press suspected it, and occasionally sputtered out about it.The openly expressed expectation of the United States press and people was ostensibly based on the immutability of the United States and Canadian commissioners, and on the convincibility of whoever should be appointed British commissioner.But Mr.Goldwin Smith put the thing in a nutshell when he said that Great Britain could not afford for Canada\u2019s sake to quarrel with the United States.In fact, the path taken has simply been the path of least resistance.The weakest must go to the wall.Qur own expectation on the subject was based first on the fact that this is not the first occasion by many that bouhdary interests between Great Britain and the United States have been dealt with, and they have been invariably decided in favor of the United States.Secondly, the United States was in possession of the disputed tertitory, and it was morally certain that nothing but war would get them out of it.Thitd- ly, # was to be expected that Great Britain would consider her own interests rather than ours, and it is undoubtedly to her interest to be friendly towards the United States and to have that country friendly to her.In fact, speaking with the candor which the occasion calls for, we may fairly say that that friendship is her paramount interest.Over against it are the rights of Canada, which in this matter loom larger in her mind than even her interests.lnterests are assets of material value, rights are of sentimental) value.To come to practical agreements,\u2019 people, especially British people, often waive their rights and balance theiy interests.Great Britain has never been tenacious of abstractions, and has always been glad to obtain séttlements by eom- promise.Indeed, a willingness to compromise has been Great Britain's great.strength both in internal and external administration, She refuses \u2018to #tähd upon logic when it stands between Mer and results.In this case it was plain that no results would be obtained if the United States did not practically get all she insisted on.; When, after the United States had crowed herself hoarse over having forced upon Great Britain, at the moment of her \u2018splendid isolation,\u201d the \u2018American\u2019 principle of arbitration in the matter of a boundary in the swamps of Venezuela, Canada demanded that this simi lar boundary question should be similarly submitted to arbitration.But this obvious justice the United States flatly refused.When she consented to the submission of the question to a Joint High Commission it was with the certainty that she could not loge and un assurance universally expressed that she would gain.It was as certain as any human question could be that no commissioners appointed by the United States would go back to their country having voted to sacrifice Skaguay and Dyea.To make assurance doubly sure the President sacrificed his dignity by selecting commissioners who had already publicly and determinately eommitted themselves.In lide manner it was not to be expected that the Canadian commissioners would be very open to conviction, even though in the selection the iodecency committed by the United States was carefully avoided.The whole matter rested with Lord Alverstone as representing the British people.His positon has been one of unspeakable re- sponsibility\u2014a responsibility which he has no doubt duly felt.In his conclu sions be has no-déubt done that which he believed best in the general interest, and they, we presume, fairly embody the desire of the British people on the question.Why Great Britain should place her own interests before the grievances of Canada needs no explanation.Her interests are immeasurably the larger, and it is she, and not Canada, that defends both.When Canada categorically refused to do anything towards Imperial defence we took the liberty to remark that Canada would soon have no cause to complain if when imperial questions were being settled Canadian rights should have but scant consideration.We are aware that the whole of what we have been saying about the attitude of the British, people is open to the charge of irrelevancy, as it is not British publie opinion which has settled this matter but an eminent and conscientious jyrist appointed to adjudicate on the historical facts before him.The function of the Commissioners was, however, more than THE MONTREAL DAILY WITNESS.juridical, and Lord Alverstone found him- relf sitting practically as an arbitrator, except that he was only in a position to surrender the interests of one side.It is right, therefore, in vindication of his decision to set forth the attitude of his people and the attitude of mind in which he might be expected to approach his subject.\u2018What gives an added twinge to this surrender is the fact that the United States has not and never had any other appreciable interest in the disputed territory \u2018except in its power to annoy and disable Canada.lt was for this, though Canada was then two thousand miles away, that Mr.Seward, stung by his defeat in the Trent affair, purchased Alaska from Russia;

¥.F.Benbow, vice-president; T.J.Griffith, secretary; Ferdinand Lappe, W.G.Adamsen, Tel: esphore Beaupre and J.Mason.\u2018The address called attention to a resolution asking the government to consider the organization the only represeu- tative of purely Canadian labor opinion, and deciared that the Trade and Labor Congress, which recently waited on the government, did not and could not fully represent the opinions of Canadian workmen, that the leaders of the last-named congress are citizens of a foreign country or their henchmen, that the president of That congress drew $1,044 from the American Federation of Labor for one year\u2019s work and that they are attempting to estrange Canadian capital and fa bor, attack that body's attitude cn the tariff and expresses the belief that goods consumed in Canada should be made in Canada by Canadian workmen, The government was asked by the resolutions to increase the duty on shoes by an additional ten percent and to register the union's trade label, and further pronounced for a fair wage system in government contracts that government work be done by day labor, and for the appointment of dynamite and barrel in- EDECÉOTE.Sir William Mulock replied and assured the deputation that the representations and resolutions would receive attentive consideration.rsp CURIOSITIES OF PRONUNCIATION.(London \u2018Tit-Bits.\u2019) We usually laugh at the foreigner\u2019s efforts to master the pronunciation of our mother tongue, but most of us are not without doubt when we come to pro nounce certain proper nouns.Any number of surnames and geographical names receive as many as four different renderings, and it is quite impossible to per suade any one that his or her way is not the correct one, Some surnames are so maltreated as to be quite unrecognizable from the spelling.No wonder the aver age individual finde an English dictionary indispensable, Probably the most remarkable quartet are Colquboun, Marjoribanks, Cholmon- deley and Bagehot.They look much less impressive when spelt as pronounced\u2014 Cohoon, Marshbanks, Chumley and Bajot.Phonetic spelling deprives many names of their terrors.That awful name Geoghegan would become simply Gagan, Ruthven would be Riven, and Cockburn Koburn.Some people are much annoyed if they are not addressed in their own special way.Mr.St.John likes to be called Sinjin, but as a geographical term he does not mind you saying Saint John.An- struther is doubtful, but often shortens into Anster.The \u2018Macs\u2019 also are very sueceptible regarding their surnames.you want to be friends with McLeod and Maclean, call them Makloud and Mak- line, and if you have any intentions regarding Mr.Strachan\u2019s daughter do not call him Strakan if you value your chances, but Strawn.Following these good intentions you must address Beau- clerk as Beauclare and Beauvoir as Bee- vor.In case you ever move in ambassadorial circles, or make friends on the Riviera, do not forget the Baron de Longueville is called Loneveal.Monsieur St.Cyr will answer Jou if you say Sanseer, and Strous would be a good rendering of the name of the eminent composer of waltzes.Markyarvelee will be as near as you can get to Machiavelli, but possibly you may be able to avoid this distinguished personage.- A couple of \u2018Saints\u2019 arc rather puzzling.St, Clark should be rendered Sinclair, and if you would win a smile of approval pronounce St.Leger Sellinger,or Selleger.There is no need to look up Beau- champ; it is merely & playful rendering of the famous maker of pills.Duchesne has such an awe-inspiring Appearance it is a pity we must pronounce it Dukarn.Heathcote is shortened into Hetheut, and Dillwyn has quite an Irish flavor when pronounced Dillon.Desquesnes is not so difficult as it looks.Dekane would pass muster, and you may also come across Dekann, Regarding Charteris and Sandys, you will win approval in high saciety if you stick to Charters and Sands; and those individuals known as Jervis, Berkeley and Derby like to hear the first \u2018e\u2019 turned into \u2018ah\u2019 Why, it is difficult to say.Spare a Welshman\u2019s feelings by sayin Aberganny, and not Abergavenny, and, i possible, do_not attempt to pronounce Amlweh.If you are English it is beyond youi A fairly successful way is to start with \u2018Am\u2019 and leave the rest to luck.you are going to Dolgelly for your holidays, ask for a ticket 4 \u2019Dolgethly and if you are a cyclist, don\u2019t inquire the way to Llanelly.If you do you will probab 7 never get there.The rustic would \u2018 ite\u2019 at Llanethly, however, Do not think of some diminutive maiden when you speak of Wemyss;

Sir,\u2014~Mr.McCorkill, the Liberal cau- didate in Brome, and the recently appointed Provincial Treasurer, has placed himself in a most unenviable position by the speech which he made at tie banquet tendered him on Saturday even: ing last, in this city.Mr.MeCorkill is reported as follows: \u2014 Then the local Finance Minister told bis friends of the unjust methods his oppod- ents were using against him in Brome.They had referred to bim as the attorzey of the liquor party, which be stated was a false and cowardly accusation.He felt, in fact, that some explanation was due to bis friends on this point.He hed been connected with certain cases in his capacity as a lawyer.He said a certain pubiio prosecutor in the county of Brome bad been carrying matters with & high hand, and while he persecuted some hotel-keepers he allowed others to escape.Some of there cases had been so notoriously unfalr, that Mr.McCorkill said he bad been employed to defend, and taking them before Mr.Jus: tice Lynch, the judgment of the local tunc- tionary was made ineffective.The speaker said he was not practicing law for his health, and he had made those men who had lost pay tbe costs, hence tbe unjust charge that he was the attorney of the liquor party.\u2018As regards the Scott Act, he sald he Nad voted for it in his time, and he had voted for ite repeal in Brome, and that five hundred good temperance people had voted tbe same way.If the Scott Act was defeated in Brome, it was due, he said, to the fact that the best temperance people were scandalized at the conduct of a clique who bad injured the cause.For his part the Provincial Treasurer said he believed in a good license law well administered.If Mr.McCorkill had been the paid advocate of the liquor interests of this province he could hardly have made a more partizan and bitter attack on the temperance people of Brome than he did in that speech.His attack upon \u2018a certain public prosecutor, who had been \u2018carrying matters with a high hand and persecuted some hotel-keepers and allowed others to escape,\u2019 is the old cry always raised by the culprit who 18 made to suffer for hie wrongdoing.The prosecution of the notorious law breakers in Brome county under the Scott Act, was the action of the Brome County Alliance, and only the violaters of the law and their friends whined out the ery persecution.; ; Mr.MeCorkill protests against being referred to as the attorney of the liquor party.Any one who reads this banquet speech of his will have no doubt as to whether the \u2018accusation\u2019 is true or false.The electors of Brome, who have had three years\u2019 experience of a license law, have not found it to be such an improvement over the Scott Act as Mr.MecCorkill considers i _ TEMPERANCE, =

Bridge Company represented by the Hon.Mr.Parent, Premier of Quevec, for the company, and Mr, Fielding, on behalf of the government.lt embodies the resolutions passed by the directora of the com- uany on the first of October last.After describipg the bridge and its railway approaches, it ®ecites that the company has issued capital stock to the amount of $200,000, out of $1,000,000, on which.the shareholders have paid $65,586.\u2018Lhe province of Quebec anted aubsidies amounting to $250,000, the city of Quebec has paid subsidies of $300,000, while the Dominion Government has granted a subsidy of $1,000,000 ,on which it has paid $374,353.Up to the present time the company has spent $914,862, and is indebted on the work to the extent of $779,500, including par value bonds to the amount of $4/2,000, upon which was realiezd $283,279.The amount required to complete the bridge with the neces sary rallway approaches, terminals and other facilities as well as to pay off indebtedness of the company is estimated at $6,866,882.It is stated the company eannot proceed with the work until it receives further aid from the government.The government, therefore, agrees to grant the necessary assitance upon certain terms.; The rompany is to release any claim for the balance of the original million dollars subsidy not yet paid.It is also to arrange with the present holders of capital stock to surrender such stock to the company in exchange for paid.up stozk to the amount paid by them.The company is also to, procure subscription oy = £200,000 to be issued at not less than par, the proceeds of which are to be applied in the first instance in porment cf the discounts at which the bonds of the company were issued, namely, $188, 271.Tne foregoing arrangements bav- ing been completed and the proceeds of the new stock issue of $200,000 paid in full to the company, it is to be at liberty to issue securities to an amount not exceeding $6,678,200.These securities are to constitute a first mortgage upon the works and to be payable in fifty years with interest at three per&nt the proceeds to be used only in actual construction work.The government guarantees payment of interest and priu- cipal upon these #6,678,200 of securities.The whole work is to be completed not later than Dec.I, 1908.\u2018The total directorate of the oompany is to consist of eleven members, of which the government shall appoint three.The government will also have the right to fix tolls and rates for the use of the bridge and all railways shall be admitted on equal terms.After the completion of the work, the company having first paid out of its income legitimate running expenses, interest, etc, shall pay to the government annually, with a view to forming a sinking fund for the purpose of paying off all bonded indebiedness, a sum equal to one and a half of one percent on all bonded indebtedness.; government reserves the right to at any time take over the whole enterprise on paying to the shareholders.the amount of their stock not to exceed $265,585, with simple interest at five percent.A months notice is to be given by the government before this right shall be exércised.The govermment is also to pay in full to the Provincial Legislature of Quebec, and the municipality of the city of Quebec, on account of their subsidies, a proportion of the balance of the net income after providing for all legitimate charges for sinking fund, interest, etc.Such pre- portion is to be based pro rata upon the amount of subsidy given.The government also reserves the right at any time to pay to the province or city of Quebec the whole amount of their subsidy, and take over their whole interest in the enterprise.\u2014\u2014 GOLDEN WEDDING HIGH CONSTABLE

the fast service: \u2018One of my earliest acts during the present session was to enquire of the government whether any progress had been made towards the establishing of the fast steamship service across the Atlantic.My latest act before coming to address you was to move Æ resolution condemning the inaction of the government with respect to that service.That such a service is of importance to this country no one denies.The line which the Conservative Gow.ernment proposed: to establish in 1896 would have provided a passenger ser- viee equal to the best service then, fur- pished on the New York route, It would also bave given sufficient cargo space as ccommodate seventeen: or-e : was not following up what he established until it was revenue producing.As for additiopal stock to the

to-day?From the Maritime Provinces, at least, the voyage to Great Britain occupies practically the same length of time as the years before Confedetation.This statement has been verified by an expert of the logs of steamers, which plied between Halifax and Liverpool in 1866.The speed of boats on the Canadian routes is less than that of second: class boats on fhe New York route.Ta there any reason why this state of af fairs should continue?Canada has the trafic, she has the resources, and she should establish the service.In 1896 the Conservative Government obtained an offer from the Messrs.Allan for the | bq establishment of this service, such as the interests of the country demanded.The Conservative administration was unfortunately defeated in June of that year, and this offer came to be considered by the present administration.\u2019 Mr.Borden then referred to the different fast Atlantic tenders.The government was now negotiating for the gervice during a three year period, but such a service would prove unsatisfactory as capitalists would not undertake to put on good boats for such a short xeriod as three years.Mr.Borden be- ieved that money spent in the proper

Ferrozone.Hamilton , Ont.October 19,\u2014 The case of esse Munroe, of 373 John street, is ome of the most remarkable on record.For more than three years Mr.Munroe was a confirmed invalid.He had the very best advice and treatment afforded by the hospitals of this city.Nothing really helped until Ferrorone was used, an t credit is due the preparation that frted such a helpless sufferer from his bed \u2018and pnt him on his feet, able to work, in à short time.\u2018About three years ago,\u201d says Mr.Mun- roe, \u2018I began to notice my health breaking up.became reduced to an extremely wretched condition.Loss of flesh and appetite, a nauseous sensation in the stomach, extreme nervousness and rush of blood to the head were manifest symptoms.Finally I grew too weak fo take exercise, and went into the hospital.The doctors wanted to 0] te on my stomach, but I was unwilling.I left the hospital and tried a number of city physicians during the next two years, without benefit.1 lost faith in the doctors, and tried a box of Ferrozone, which gave such encouraging results that I took more.\u2018After niné boxes of Ferrozone had been used, I was again on my feet and able to walk around.I kept taking Ferrozone for many weeks, and was restored to excellent health.Although I was formerly as wesk as an infant, 1 ean now put in a long hard day's work.My cure is therefore permanent.I am glad to add my grateful testimony along with many others, and can recom- mènd Ferrozorte to everyone who is bothered with weakness, nervousness or stomach trouble.I believe.Ferrozone will cure after sll else hps failed.Ferroxone Assures Heeltls.| Im 1-2 Ib.and 1 Poland Case of 12 44 gallons, Natural ,.Case of 24 44 gallons, Natural .Case of 100 pints, Carbonated Quarts (cases of

but that they are selling nearly at the rating of stocks of lmsoivent properties, whose price is fixed merely because they possess an equity which might be useful in a contest tor comtrol.This is obviously true of the common stocks.From one point of view, it may be said that the public's present valuation of these shares is a natural sequel to one part of last week's Shipbulld- ing disclodures, in which a private - pres- pectus was shown up, assigning $500,000: out 027$15;000,000- tata! \u2018stolk torbergifen -{that bave so long weighed upon the Stock _ing-share market.Kafir houses here con- tributsf à million sterling to this pool, Paris.and Beriln interests put up hall's million - each.It need hardly be said that the steps thus taken by bankers and others to save the stricken houses from actual collapse were not dictated by a spirit of charity, but r3- which would have intensified to an incalculable extent the uneasiness and district Exchange.The fall in gilt-edged sécuri- ties has not only hit ordinary invastors, \u2018but the banks also.Those Institutions bave been free lenders on these descriptions, and tbere is reason to believe that in vast numbers of cases where there has been a fall- ure to keeup said \u2018margins\u2019 the sald banks have had to take the stocks up themselves with & view to nursing them until the arrival of a favorable moment to realize.In s0' far as they have acted in this manner they have done much to strengthen the general situation by diminishing the flost- ing supply of stock and keeping securities off the market.ad they attempted to realize outright, the situation that would have been thersby brought about hardly needs to be described\u2014\u2018London Money Market Review.\u2019 ANOTHER BALTIMORE FAILURE.Baltimore, Md., Oct.19.\u2014 The Union Trust Company closed its doors ut 1.2% p.m.It bad a paid up capital of $1,000,000 a surplus of $250.000 and -undivided profits of $158,000.Miles White, jr., haa been Appointed receiver of the company.He sfates that thd closing of the doors of that company was due to a run upon it by deposi tors in consequence of the anhouicement af the failure of the Maryland, Trust Company.It is stated that there are no business connections whatever between the two suspended companies.\u2019 COMMERCIAL .Montreal Whoiesaie Prices Fags are.up.again 3% to 1 cent.Cheese is steady, but buyers here will not pay .the prices at which gome fancy lots were only offering 1l4c here.Butter Is firmer.\u201cGRAIN.\u2014 Peas, 63c high freights ;

$3.66 per cwt.; fiour, $1.85 to $2.10 per cwt.ot Winnipeg.has dore its best to uphold .the correctness of the grading in that city, but it has not explained how what was really No.3 wheat came to have No.1 cer- it Is true that No.1 hard Manitoba wheat sells for more money than any other kind, but this does not prove that No.1 in Liver- |.pool is always equal to No.1 in Winnipeg.There \u2018Is little doubt that British millers are being imposed upon, and, as their competitors in Canada get the genuine grades, they are at a disadvantage.\u2018The farmers jn Canada are the losers, as faulty \u201cgrading makes our millers bid No.2 values for No.1 certified wheats.This makes it better for the Canadian miller, because he is picking up real No.1 iu competition with, English millers, who are bidding No.2 prices, because they cannot rely on getting No.1 under that certificate.It may suit the grain dealers fn Canada and the Canadian flour importer here for things to continue as tbey are, but how âces this affect the Canadian farmer and Hia best customer, the British miller?Tho} interests of these are of far more consequence than those of the middle men.it Canadian farmers.do not put pressure to bear on in the right quarter and compel tbe grading of exported wheat to be kept up to well defined standards, they will lose the great reputation.to which they have attained, and, moreover, inaction on thelr part will compel them to accept No.2 prices for No.1 grades.\u2019 FROZEN WHEAT.\u201cThe frozep wheats.from the- spring wheat States and from Western Canada are in rather large supply, and # word of warning in regard to them may not be out of place.When the wheats from these parts are barvésted without having had frost upon them in Alling and maturing stages, they are Irreproachable ; but once they become froster their quslity is gradt- ly injured.This injury is, in our opinion, greatly underestimated by many aillers.On Mark Lane, s few days ago, we heerd of millers buying these frosted whests at a price above that of good sound and bright plate sorts.This looks like.buying b¥ name and pot by quality, which is.dangerous.The millers,af frozen wheats should make a few trial grists ef them: then they would not allow better wheat with: another name go a-begging for customers.In both London and Liverpool, we have lately noticed much bread in bakers\u2019 shops, which had a dull leathery-looking eruft.and were the millers of the flour used to, tell us to mixture was,.we.shonld mention frozen Wheat as one in the.blend.- GAULT BROS.ANNUAL MEETING: The Gault Bros.Compeny,\u201d Limited, at fhoir-annÿaf meeting yesterday elected : H:.Gauit, president, and R.W.McDougall, Jas, Rodgers, S.H.Bethang and \u2018A.Hamilton Gault, directors.Gault Co., Limited, Winnipeg, elected Hf.W.McDougall, president;

J.P.Cleghorn, W.C.Mcintyre, Lteut.-Col.F.C.Henshaw, H.Markland Molson, W.M.Ramsay, Al-| fred Piddington, D.McNaughton, Charles Bpragge, G.W.Robinson, George Filer, M.McKenste, T.BE.Vasey, George Durnfora, 2 W.Ewing, W.R.Miller and G.E.Mc- The President, having calied the meeting to order, requested Mr.A.D.Durnford to net as secretary, and after thàt gentléman bad »ead the advertisement conventhg the meeting, the President named Messrs.Geo.Durnford.end Charles Spraggs to act as scrutineers.REPORT OF DIRECTORS.The Geperal Manager, Mr.James Elliot, then read the annual report of the Directors, ss follows:\u2014 Gentlemen,\u2014The Directors have pleasure in presenting this the forty-eigbth annual report, showing the result of the Bank's business for the year ending 30th September, 1908: * The profits, after providing for operating expenses and bad and doubtful debts, are $439,092.24.There have been paid two semi-annual ŒQvidends, amounting to $235,680.95\u20149 percent for the year.\u2018One hundred and fifty thousand dollars has been transferred to the Reserve Fund, and $36,908.27 expended in branch buildings, leaving at credit of Profit and Loss Account $25,755.91.The Regerve Fund is now $2,720,778, having grown from $2,250,000 balance last year, by addition of $150,000 from profits and $320,778 from the premiums paid on new stock (issue of 15th May last, $600,000, at 190), now being paid up by instalments.During the year branches have been opened at Frankford, Highgate and St.With deep regret the Directors record been a useful and honored member of the Board for thirteen years.Mr.William C.Mcintyre has been called to fill the vacancy.The branches, Including Montreal, have as usual been carefully inspected.The officers of the Bank have performed thelr -gave his most valuable advice.uties efficiently and zealously.a Wr.M.MACPHERSON, President.The capital of the chartered baaks is now upwards of $77,500,000, an increase over last year of upwards of $7,300,000.The circulation of the chartered banks shows an increase of mpwards of $6,000,000, amounting to $60,414,740.: While we sre to-day enabled to look upon the past year with feelings of eatisfac- tion, we must view the present and future with feelings or extremes caition.Tle channels which the Increasing loant have gone Into are, we apprehend, in many cases surrounded by a epéculative-element other than of a bona fide business character.It is pleasing to note that the deposits in the chartered banks, the savings banks, snd the loan and building societies, have increased by over $35,000,000, during the past ysar, a very strong indication of the prosperity we are now enjoying throughout Canada.The farming community of all the prov- fnces of the Dominion have harvested abundant crops, which must enrich all parts of the country.The older provinces have shipped very heavily, cheese, butter, cattle, apples, ete., the exports of the country aggregating $215,145,308, an increase over last \u2018year of $16,545,008; and such shipments will continue for somo time.The attention which Canada has dttracted owing to her growth and prosperity, re- salted in the most important commercial gathering which possibly ever tock place In our country, the fifth Congress of the Chambers of Commerce of the Empire, bringing, as it did, representatives from all parts of the British Empire, with the view of favoring \u2018closer trade relations\u2019 within ft, which cannot fail to render most beneficial results.So far as Canada is concerned, the repredentatives of the Chambers o! Commerce, as well as the nrembers of the House of Lords and the House of Commons, who subsequently visited Can- ads, and traversed the country fronr the Atlantic to the Pacific, inspecting its wonderful resources and capabilities, have imbibed information which cannot fai! to make Canada prominent in the minds of those who viewed it, as well as in the councils in which they will be taking part.The Molsons Bank suffered a serious loss in- the death of Mr.Samuel Finley, who for many years served as & director, and His business experience and good Judgment were of the greatest benefit to the Bank.We are pleased to Inform you that Mr.William C.McIntyre has been elected to fill the vacancy.Mr.McIntyre's high re- rutation and business experience are so well known that it is needless for me to say more than that we consider the Bank fortunate Jn having his advice and counse! for their guidance.We ars indebted to the General Manager and the other officers of the Bank for their untiring energy and services.The payment of a bonus will indicate the Directors\u2019 appreciation.Gentlemen: I dc not know that there is more to be sald in reference to the affairs of the Bank and the trade which our coun- iry bas enjoyed.They both benefited as time went on, and the only feeling we have ls one of caution, that caution should pe exercised in the future.RAL STATEMENT OF THE AFFAIRS OF THE

me an oversight that the motion omitted to mention the officars of the Bank, as I think it is the officers, and not the Directors, who have rendered the services.How- over, I beg to thank you very much, and to assure you that the officers of the Bank have this year done really exceptional work, inasmuch as it has been a trying year, and several new branches have besn opened; causing additions! work.\u2019 The Vice-President\u2014\u2018After what the President has stated, there is really very little to be ssid by the Directors.I thank you very sincerely for the kind vote, and I may say that the President and all the Directors take as much interest In the affairs of the \u2018institution as if they wers dealing with their own private business.I arm not saying\u2019 more than the truth In\u2019 making that statement.We have done so in the past, and if elected again, I can only ay, as far &s I am corcerned, and I think F can apeak for my fellow-directors, that we shall do our duty in the future ss in the past \u2018We have at the Bank a very modest General Manager.He does not think that he has done any more than his duty, and he does not think that those under him have done hny more than their duty.We think they have done their duty so well that they are entitlsd to thanks, and I have much pleasure in asking the Sharohalders te pass a vote of thanks to the General Manager, Chief Inspector, the Managers, and all the officers connected with this Bank.They have ali dome their duty.Going back over the past year, I Jo not think that we have had one seriois complaint about any one in this Bank.There has been no serious complaint of misconduct of any sort, which la à gréat thing to say, considering that we have about 270 employees.I_do not think that it would be right to allow the meeting to cloas without a vote of thanks to them, and I move it now.\u201d Mr.W.M.Ramaay seconded the motion, which was carried unanimeusly.The General Manager\u2014\u2018I thank you very much for your kindly allusion to us.As the Vice-President has said, we have only done our duty.We have a little over 270 men, and there has been nothlhg really which has gone wrong.A guarantee fund was some years ago established by the Bank, and it is contributed to partly by tte Bank, and partly by the officers, but it has not been called upon for some years, and I hope it will not be for\u2018many more.\u2019 The meeting then proceeded to ths election of directors, Mr.Alfred Pidding\u2018on moving, seconded by Mr.G.W.Robinson, that ote ballot be cast.This was unanimously agreed {o, and the ballot having been cast, the scrutineers reported the election of the retiring board, vif.: Messrs.J.P.Glaghorn, 8.H.Ewing, Lteut.-Colonel F.C.Henshaw, H.Markland Molson, W.Molson

ree a continuance of prosperous times In Canada.I thank the scrutineers for their services.\u2019 At a subsequent meeting of the Directors, Mr.W.Molson Macpherson was re-slected President, and

in the Y.M.C.A.Hall under the auspices of the Western W.C.T.U.His Worship Mayor Cochrane, who presided, spoke strongly of the evils of the liquor traffic in the city.Not a day passed that some heart-breaking 1n- cident did not come to his notice.Miss Wiggins sketched the history of the Woman's Christian Tempérance oa ion.It had been organized by a band.of women in Hillsboro, Ohio, who, in 1873, went through the town and prevailed upon the saloonkeepers to close their barrooms.At first the people were in sympathy with the movement but later the crowd turned and toid the workers to go back to their homes, where they ought to be.The speaker said that the people of Hillsboro were right, the home was the proper place for the woman.It was her duty first to make that bome a cheerful and happy place but that could only be done \u2018by closing up the saloons.Since its foundation the union had dene a great amount of good.One of its most important branches was the preventive work, the teaching of the children .through the public schools the effects of alcohol on the human body.In this way many men were reached Ly the children repeating the lessons to their parents at nome.The only cure for.the evils of drink was national prohibition.True, we might not always be able to make men moral by act of parliament, but we could stop making them immoral by the same agency.We could readily have a law against, say, oleomar- gorine.Why?Well, perhaps, our lawmakers and law-enforcers were not fond | of oleomargarine.The government now sent the-drunkard to fail.It should send the traffic there and lock the door on it forever.It was a principle of political econoffiy that no business has a right to exist which is not a benefit to the community.The government exists to minister to the benefit of the people.If the liquor traffic is a blessing the government should support it but if, on the other hand the liquor traffic is a curse it should not be protected and licensed by law and it is well known and can be easily seen that the liquor traffic is not a blessing but a curse to the country.Many efforts had been made to obtain prohibition.In Ontario two plebiscites and a referendum had been taken but it was like playing the game of \u2018heads I win, tails you lose.\u201d If the majority Was against prohibition then the liquor side wom but if the prohibitionists had the majority, then the majority.was not sufficient and prohibition lost again.People were far too ready to insist on public sentiment enforcing the law.Public sentiment could never do the work of the paid officers of the Jaw.Time and again public sentiment had expressed its will by large majorities, but its paid law officers refused to enforce them.In many places in the Maitime Provinces, where the Scott Act was tn force, the inspectors appointed by the government wera dishonest and did not do their duty.; Co In conclusion Miss Wiggins spoke of the need there was for strong men of courage who would dare to stand out and do their duty in spite of all opposition.The Rev.Dr.Shaw principal of the | Wesleyan Theological lege, paid a wärm tribute to the work of the W.C, T.U., especially in their advocacy of more scientific instruction in the public sehools.He was pained to observe that there was a retrograde movement at present in Ontario, and glad to say a progressive movement along the same lines in Quebec.They had already tem- nce instruction in the public schools ere and hoped soon to have more.Among those on.the platform were Mrs.R.W.Mele , secretary of the Provincial W.C.T.U., the Rey.Canon.Dizon and the Rev.E.H.Tip- pett.THE AFTERNOON G.At the conference in the afternoon in- the Evangelistic Hall, Miss Wiggins talked on the nezd of the suffrage for women.Thé W.C.T.U.should be proud of their work.They had a message to the world which was being delivered to nône else.They may not be large in numbers, but do not apologise for your existence, \u2018Who knoweth whether thou art coma to the kingdom for such a time as thie \u201d Think how rapidly the world is moving.One hundred years ago men debited whether women had a brain or not.Fifty years #20 they could not teach in public schools, \u201cvet to-day the Hon.Ww.Ross, tre pis: Minister of Education for Ontario, had declared that the improved tone of the public schools was due to the influence of the women teachers.And perhaps twenty-five years from now politics woulod have received a new impetus from the same source and the golden rule enthroned.Now when women urged purity in politics their sons retorted that their mothers could not understand these matters.But where women had been tried their sons were obliged to say, if our mothers and sisters can stand firm in the midst of political corruption, so should, so can, we.The nation was but the larger house and had as much need of the wisdom of the mother as of the father.It was all very well to say that women must be keepers at home.If a cesspool threatening the health and lives of ner children were on her neighbor's lot, would they call her unwomanly if the mother left her home to try to have it, removed ?{dnd where was there a preater pest and menace than the saloon?t was their business to set over against the appetite for drink and the power of the saloon the organized mother love of the nation.And in this battle the bullets must be the ballots.Already women had a partial vote.But why the reetrictions.Why say that marriage unfits her to vote as she may have None for years before?You may say her husband represents her.Not always.Sometimes he misrepresents her.Every argument against giving woman the full franchise had been used against extendin it to men.She was ready to admi that all women were not fit to exercise the franchiee, but neither ware all men, and good men were more ready than some women to say, \u2018we need ya: in our country\u2019s work,\u201d They well knew that the motherhod of the country would never fall in line at the crack of the party whip, but the time must come when good women would be able to back up their petitions by their ballots.eters.NEW TRAINED NURSES.Misgges

return of the Rugby team sent out to South Africa suggested to me the idea of a regular competition, on the lines of our international matches between Great Britain and the colonies, such as South Africa, Canada, New Zealand and Australia, in all of which Rugby flourishes exceedingly well.Ot course, the principal items In such an arrangement are time and the necessary funds; but then the tour to the Antipodes would take place dur- tng our summer, when footballers at home are at liberty to play away from their clubs and the Canadian match could be played before our season began.As for money.surely the gates on such occasions would bring in enough to pay all expenses, and a guarantee fund could easily be raised among enthusiastic sporting imperialists to cover any unforeseen expenses which might arise.KNOCKING THE ARGOS.Every club ip the senior O.R.F.U.wil 2326 Notre Dame Street 3301 Notre lame Street 226 Bleury Street 937 St.Lawrence Street 26 St.Lawrence Street 679
