$250,000 for Roads, Etc.Passed After Opposition by Councillor McGoun.\u2014 \u2019 QUESTION WILL GO TO THE RATEPAYERS ON SEPT.14.The by-law to authorize Westmount to borrow two hundred and fifty theusand dollars for roads, sidewalks, draing and electric light plant passed its third reading at list night\u2019s meeting of the Town Council, and 1t will be submitted to the ratepayers on Sept.14, when a poll will probably be demanded.Councillor McGoun, chairman of the Road Committee, vigorously opposed the passing of the by-law last night.le said he did not object to borrowing a reasonable sum of money for work 1m- mediately required, but he did protest against the borrowing nf the enormous sum of $250,000 for fully one half ot which no justification whatever had been shown he to the council or to any committw which would have an opportunity to make an investigation as to whether this money was required or not.The by-law, he maintained, ought to have been properly considered by the Road Committee.\u2018If this money,\u2019 he added, \u2018ic to be voted by council without an opinion from any one else than the town engineer himself, I say we are entering upon a courge that will land this town in financial embarrassment, I warn you that yow are establishing a precedent that will go far to shake the credit of the town.If we expect'to enjoy the confidence of the financial world we must not ratify the borrowing of large sums of money without investi gation.\u201d He asked the council to refer the matter back to the Road Committee in order that it might make a special investigation of the clauses of the by-law coming under its jurisdiction, and final- ly- declared that the by-law at present was \u2018utterly irregular and entirely subversive to the principles that should guide a council.\u2019 Councillor gall said as a member of the Road Committee he was: aware of everything dealt with in council, and if Councillor McGoun was not, it was his own fault.member of the Road Committee he was sorry to take issue with his chairman.There had been, however, an inertness on his part and \"he was sorry to say his had been a cheese-paring policy.But Westmount was not prepared to stand that kind of play.ts proprietors are prepared to pay to the uttermost farthing for good roads, drains, and water supply\u201d \u201cOur streets,\u2019 he continued, \u2018have been in a worse condition this year than for five or six years past.Ths is owing to the miserable way in which the work of the Road Committee has been done\u2014left without a cent of money to go on with work that we should continue for two months longer.\u2019 Councillor Trenholme supported the by-law, maintaining that it was in the best intercsts of the town that this money should be borrowed.Councillor Featherstone remarked that he thought Councillor McGoun was split- tin Siraws on the matter.present state of the money mar- Kot Said Councillor McGoun, \u2018is such that it is highly inexpedient for us to make an extravagant addition to our im- debtedness.We are not able to negotiate present bonds, and here we are asking to borrow $250,000, on a rough estimate, made in the most hazardous manner, of what is required.\u2019 Councillor Murphy said the town would only be indebted in: consequence of laying sidewalks, which were urgently need- e Councillor McGoun moved that the amounts making up the proposed loan be reduced as follows: Fcr macadamizing roads, $1,900; sewers, $7,000; sidewalks | and crossings, $9.000; acquiring and open-] ing streets, $40,000.He asked that this be seconded, so that his motion might go on record, but he did not expect it to be voted upon.Councillor Scott agreed to second the motjon, and it was accordingly recorded, after which the by-lax was read a third time and passed to the consideration of the ratepayers.A special meeting of the council wil) be called to consider a proposal for the third reading of Councillor McGoun\u2019s water by-law.DEATH OF MR.A.R.BARBEAU.ed R.Barbeau, an old employee of the Liverpool & London & Globe Insurance Company, died suddenly yesterday morning at his residence, 160 Sanguinet street.Mr.Barbeau had gone as usual to early mass at St.James\u2019 Church, and upon his return followed his custom of reading in his room before breakfast.When called for his re- pest, he did not reply, and a visit to is room revealed the fact vhat he was lying unconscious in his armchair.A neighboring doctor was at once summoned, but upon his arrival life was already extinct, death having been caused by syncope of the heart due to old age.Mr.Barbeau, who was seventy-nine years old, had been for a long time a member of the local staff of the Liverpool & London & Globe Insurance Company, and was pensioned a few years ago for long and faithful service.He was thé elder brother of the late Messrs, Kmond and Henri Barbeau, both of whom were 80 long connected with the management of the

was killed while attempting to rob Charles Varrell\u2019s flat last Friday.The police declare that they have evi dence to show that Hoffman was the murderer of Sophy Heckler, a servant girl, found dead on Aug.3, and Mrs.Lena Schan, who was killed n Brooklyn on Aug.20.It is possible that Hoffman was also guilty of other mysterious murders which occurred recently.Hoff- mann\u2019s method, like that of Hoch, the police say, was to make the acquaintance of women of his own nationality.antl.by pretending to desire to marry them, secure the opportunity of robbing.and.if necessary, killing them.Hoffman Pn- tered the Varrell flat carly last Friday morning, and attempted to kill the family by turning on the gas.V arrell shot him to death.AUGUST FIRES.The report of Mr.Ferns, superintendent

FOR SATURDAY.Only one fixture of the National Lacrosse Union is booked for Baturday\u2014tbe game betwee, Shamrocks and Capitals at the Shamrock grounds.The game promises to be interesting, although the Cap- pitale have dohe nothing phenomenal since their return from the European tour, except to hold the hosor, up to last Saturday, of being the enly team to defeat the Fri shmen.With last Saturday's defeat by Cornwall still an unpleasant memory, the Shamrocks are not likely to any chances of meeting a second defeat from the Capitals.They have the advantage of playing on their hoje ground, and before a home crowd, which to most teams means a great deal; and to the Shamrocks a whole let.Last Saturday's entirely ubexpected results leave Shamrocks in.exactly the same position with

responsible for damages caused by the accident, but simply to ascertain and report upon the cause of the deaths and the circumstances that produced them, and to place the blame for the loss of life in

: Mr.Parent said that the contractor for the masonry was M.P.Davis & Co., and for the steel superstructure the Phoenix Bridge Company, of Phoenixville.The plans and designs for the bridge were made by the engineer of the last named company.When the Quebec Bridge Company called for tenders for the erection of the superstructure, they also asked each company for their own plans and specifications of the game.\u2018 Plans were received from three or four companies, and all were referred to the consulting engineer, Theodore Cooper, of New York, who is a recognized authority fe.bridge construction, especially those ilt on the cantilever principle.Mr.Cooper submitted an exhaustive report, taking into consideration and giving a criticism of the different plans and reporting in favor of those submitted by the nix Company, and in consequence of this the contract was given to this company.Mr.Burger is now here examining the ruins with Mr.Cooper\u2019s partner, and Mr.E.A.Hoare is the company\u2019s engineer.He never met better contractors for this kind of work than the Phoenix Company.Their engineering staff was always ready to wu mit to any representations made by the Quebec Bridge Company.At the time of the accident the company had two engineers employed supervising the work.Mr.McClure was the civil engineer, and, Mr.Kinlock was supervisor of the mechanical part of the work.They also had two pectors of work and materials, who were always on the scene.These men were Messrs.Edmonds and Messier, both experienced men.Mr.Hoare, the engineer in chief, regularly inspected the work as it progressed, and gave his instructions to the engineers and inspectors and \\those under him.The Federal Government as well had a representative at the works at Phoenixville to check and verify and inspect the quality of the work turned out.and also that the construction material conformed to specifications.This was done, and advances of money to.carry on {the work were made as the

that it takes a lot of time to make a thorough inspection.Mr.Parent said that he was quite positive that the fault would not be found in the plans and specifications.In reply to juror Gignac, who asked if any changes had been made in the original plans eubmitted by the company, be said that none had been made in the principles of construction, but doubtless .| some in matters of detail.but

\u2018West, who after being convicted of protect, was paid his salary during part of the time he was in jail, and on getting out \u2018was appointed again at double bis former salary; or eudli notorious men as J, B.Jackson, Jury and Pree- ton, the latter two of whom, had, on eir intimate personal knowledge each other, accused each eof fraud and er crimes.' v Free rural mail delivery was the next point on which Mr.Borden elt.He id mot propose- to carry on such a ecale as to \u2018greatly burden the revenues, but he \u2018eonsidered that there were many districts where such a sys tem might be applied with good results.Ke TELEPHO A TELBGRAPHS.- Passing to the position for government ownership of telegraph - telephone services, the same to be managed y & commission independent - of party influence, Mr.Borden Jointed out there were already 7,000 miles of state tole in cause there would be no adequate return for their investment.If, he argued, the government could carry on a tele- service \u2018in thése regions, he mw Jo Feagon hy it should not add à.egraph system to its post office department, and carry it on the lines he had suggested.The same ap- hed to the telephone service, which, y ite very nature, was 3 monopoly.And if this service could be carried on In à successful and efficient manner by a private company, he saw no reason why a commission of capable men could not carry it on in the same as_a state enterprise, free from political interference, and, for the benefit of the people of this country.LAND { SCANDALS.Proceeding to discuss the prèsetvation of the public domain, Mr.Borden remarked that it was obvious that this.must be exploited for the public, not for the speculator.That had been a cardinal policy of the Liberals in opposition.But in office they had had the Saskatchewan land deal, the Robine irrigation contract, the grazing lease deals, and other similar scandals, which had made thousands for friends of the government, as had happened in the notorious Blairmore town-site deal.With regard to the immigration question, Mr.Borden said it was time that the indiscriminate rushing in of everyone who could be procu should cease, and that attention should be paid to quality rather than quantify in our immigrants.It was inevitable that the west would fill, and any Conservative government that might come to power would.come pledged to make a judicious selection of immigrants, and also to see that there should be no repetition of such scandalous deals as the North Atlantic Trading Company affair.: The Grand Trunk Pacific Railway was the next subject with which Mr.Borden dcalt.The Conservatives, he said, had no reason to retract in the least fram the position they took on that question, the share taken by the people of Canada in financing the road.it would only be fair that they should have some share in this issue of common stoek, and in the future profits which would arise from the development of the country, just \u201cas the cities of Montreal and Toronto had a share in the increasing profits of thelr street ear companies.ut the G.T.P.contracts having been made, and ratified by the people, he added, the rvatives, whether in power or not, would take the ground that all contracts must be observed and loyally carried out.MUST STAMP OUT BRIBERY.Having dealt briefly with the necessity of improving the water commuxrication system in Canada eo as to put the people of the Dominion in tion to meet eom- petition from the United States when terly disregarded as the pledges of.the fradÿ== with foreign markets, Mr.Bor- \u2018absence | \u2018Wilfrid Laurier, after searching with a\u2019 man among the Æ 130 who sat behind him, passed by the| whole lot and went outside parliament B To\u2019 eeck three men for cabinet vacan- eles.Ea ;

and I appeal to all to consider the present position, when I am confident that they wi condemn\u2019 the present administration, and give.the Conservative party an oppoftt nity to establish a clean and pr sir government.\u2019 MR.MARECHAL : ON CORRUPTION.PS : Mr.L.T.Marechal, K.0, the.course of \u2018an eloquent speach, erred to Mr.Borden as a worthy -suceessor of Conservative statesmen like Lafontaine and Macdonald, and :aid although the Liberals had bragged much about the extinction of the Conservative party, judging from the crowd asse à, \u2018as weli as from the success of Mr -Horden.s former mectings, the - party : of | Lafontaine was still.very m reprehensible electoral corruption.having.failed to pit it out of existende.b had emerged from its - trials stronger than ever, and ready to.wage staunoh- opposition, which was indispensable to\u2019| good government.CL 1% Mr.Marechal went on -to detail the\u201d broken pledges of thè gorernaie t, and some of the scandals which had -arisens He referred particularly to che fact.that instead of establishing free trade, as he bad promised, Sir Wilfrid Lantiér had adopted sthe Conservative policy.ched t elec- In conv usion, Mr, Marecha upon soipe of the Liberal corrur toral acts, notably that of St.division In 1904, when he said jt had been arranged to telegcuph as many as %o votes: in 28 Tolls, 20 us to oust one: the most up men o e party, ex-Ald.Ames;

\u2018The Department of Marine and Fisheries now ds annually upwards of 25,000,000.x there any adequate defence for such traneactions as the Mer- win contract, for the Prescott machine shop, where the middleman purchased from a Montreal firm goods which the government could have bought direct, thus making for himself 50 percent profit on the equipment supplied! Is there any adequate defence for the lavish expenditure, on the ice-breaker \u2018Montcalm,\u2019 a boat furnished at the public expense for a.royal yacht?Is there any adequate defence for the fitting out of the \u2018Arctic\u2019 with eupplies worth $125,000, for which no tenders.were asked, and an exorbitant price in many cases d?\u2018Now look for a moment at the Department of Railways and Canals, where the middleman is most in evidence, as illustrated in the land purchases.Can the Moncton land deals, where the middleman made a profit of $10,000 on a $24,000 transaction, be justified?Can the Halifax land purchase, where property that cost $18,500 was turned over within a few months to the government for $45, 400 be explained to your satisfaction?\u201cThese are but examples of a well nigh universal practice.Investigate any cf these transactions and at the bottom you will find the middleman, the gov- crament favorite, gathering in the rake- off.The Saskatchewan Valley land deal.the irrevocable grazing lease question, the Robins irrigation deal, and timber limit concessions were dealt with in detail by Mr.Ames, who declared that the Liberal Government's whole administration of the western lands reeked of favoritism.Western M.Ps had ve- come millionnaires through their dealings while, warm sympathy or cold justice was rded to the settler according to bis political leanings.\u2019 honest administration, civil service -e- form and a progressive policy.Is he simcere?Can you look at the man, can you hear him speak and doubt that he means what he says?Can he fulfil his word regarding his promises of clean elections, honest administration and civil service reform?From what I know of our chief there is no doubt in mv mind that on metters of moral principle he is adamant.If given the opportunity he will surround \u2018himself with men who will uphold the principles he proclaime.\u2019 MR.BOURASSA NOT FOR SALE.Mr.J.G.H.Bergeron, M.P., the last speaker, eut his remarks short, and it ., was close upon / Midnight when he ro rose.He referred \"2 to the recent cabi- \u201cM net appointments, Wl and said he could not in bis heart blame Sir Wilfrid Laurier for going # outside the House | to get new members for his government.He knew the Premier imtimate ly, and could say that Sir Wilfiid more of \u201d MR.BERGERON.Bourassa was man with a head on his shoulders, was not for sale.; Mr.Bergeron adyised all workmen dissatisfied with their wages not to depend on strikes to better their conditions.The thing to do was to go to the fountain head and put into wer a party which would give them what they wanted.; + Mr.Bergeron concluded his remarks by referring to immigration to the North-West, and ag :to the forthcoming a and time came the people would support the policy of Mr.Borden.ST.JOHN BY-ELECTION CONSERVATIVES NOT TO OPPOSE THE HON.MR.PUGSLEY.\u2014 St.John, N.B., Sept.3.\u2014So far as the pears now that St.J6hn City and County seat will be given up to the Liberals, and the Hon.Wm.Pugsley, the new Minister of Publie Works, will be unopposed.A meeting of the Conservative executive was held to-night to consider the situation, and at its conclusion it was announced that as no strong candidate was available the meeting adjourned without taking any action and without voting on the question of contesting the seat.As adjournment -was taken without date, and as the election is set for Sept.25, it is taken to mean that there will be no Conservative in the field.Mayor Sears, however, who is a Liberal, to-night confirmed his decision to remain in the field in opposition to Mr.Pugsley.rare \u2019 SHERBROOKE EXHIBITION minion Exhibition now almost all the exhibits in place, and nearly all the stock hzs arrived.The horses and ecat- tle entered are coming down from the Toronto fair by-special train on Thursday.\u2018The programme was carried out, judging was begun, and the vaudeville riormance took place on the new cov- \u201cered platform in front of the grand- rainy, but the attendance was satisfactory.The exhibition wil be formally ed to-morrow aftérnoon by the Hon.Sydney Fisher.Sir Louis Jetté will al- go be present.One of the attractive exhibits in the main _building is that of \u2018Mr.Borden\u2019 promises clean elections,| Sherbrooke, Que, Sept.8\u2014The Do- | WebwespAy, SEPTENBER 4, 1007 PLOTTED AGAINST CZAR'S LIFE TWO TERRORISTS EXECUTED in TERDAY.St.Petersburg, t.3 \u2014Nik.Purkin and Naoumoff, Terrorists demned to death on Aug.29, on « - ton of having plotted against tho!
