THOSE G.T.R.TICKETS.THE RAILWAY AND THE LIBERALS.The North Perth Contested Election Case Before the Supreme Court\u2014Mr., Pacand\u2019s Yarty Allegiance Explained.ISPECIAL TO THE BTAR.| OTTAWA, February 18.\u2014The report that judgment had beeu rendered in the North Perth election case fs erroneous.Mr.B.B.Osler, Q.C.resumed his argument {n the appeal, in which the judgment in the court below mai.itaining Mr, Grieve (Liberal) in his seat is asked to be set aside.This is the case in which the Corservatives are endeavoring to have 1t decided that the action of the Grand Trunk Rallway Company in furnishing tickets for the conveyance of voters is an aot of bribery in the same way as the carriage of voters the polls by rigs 18 à corrupt act.Mr.Osler argued at considerable length that the transactions between the Liberals\u2019 campaign managers in this case and the railway company were merchantable by reason of the tickets supplied being saleable and transferable, During the argument, Mr.Justice Btrong asked for information as to the parties who had benelited by these tickets, and as to whether they did not belong to both poltti- cal parties.Mr.Osler replied by quoting Mr, Wainwright's evidence to the effect that they had supplied rallway ticket to members of different political parties to Liberal and Conservative associations alike, and citing from the list of names of those who had received such tickets, which inoluded 8ir Charles Tupper, Mr.Pacaud, Mr.Chap- leau, Mr.McCarthy, Mr.Preston and others.Mr.Justice Strong was still seeking information and asked who Mr.Pacaud was and ton a olitical party bi he belonged.sler\u2014Oh, my Lord, he longs to ui third party\u2014to the boodle party Mr.Justice Btrong\u2014*'But at the \u201ctime of this election?\u201d Mr, Osler\u2014\u201cI think it was pretty well known to which party he belonged.\u201d Proceeding, Mr.Osler argued that the ing a railway ticket toa voter to enable to vote was an act of bribery.Mr.Garrow, QC, replied denying that there was any such body as the Central \u2018Liberal Comniittee of Toronto and therslore it could not ba held responsible for these Grand Trunk Rallway tickets which bad not been paid.Moreover, Mr.Grieve had no connection with the officlals of the Reform Club who ordered these tickets.Incidentally, Mr.Garrow made the remark that the true history of the deal by which these tickets had delivered was not yet known, and Chief Justice Ritchie interjected: \u201cif a controversy had not arisen-across the watér between Sir Charles Tupper and Sir Henry Tyler, of?case would never have been ear > CHILIAN ASSASSINS.Attempts on the Lives of President Montt and General Canto.NEw YORK, February 18.\u2014The Heralds Valparaiso despatch says: Plots to kill Pre- aident Montt and General Canto have been discovered and thwarted, The attempt on President Montt's life took place on Sunday night.The miscreants engaged in it removed the rails three kilometres north of the Mauie station.Their intention was to wreck the traln which Montt was announced to take.Fortunately Montt stopped off at a suburban station.Moreover, the removal of the rails was discovered by the railroad officials before any damage was done.When the fantlago express for this city arrived at Llalliaon Monday, Gen.Canto, who was one of the passengers, left his seat In the Pullman car to take breakiast.Upon returning he found his seat satutaled with kerosene.Burned matches were discovered naar by.There was no clew to the perpetrators, Will Refuse Russian Immigrants, NEw YORK, February 18.\u2014The agents of the White Star, Bamburg-Amerioan Co.and the North German steamship lines cabled directions yesterday to the agents in Europe to accept no more Russian Hebrew immigrants as passengers.As the great majority of Russian Hebrews are brought to this country on those lines, the refusal to accept them will prevent 1e spreading of the typhus fever here.This decision against the Hebrews, howéver, wili prove a great hardship to those who are at present quartered in Hamburg and Bremen awalting their chance to embark for this country.Nearly all of the Hebrews in those cities are Russians who have been driven by persecution and tyranny from the Czar\u2019s domains.They are poverty-stricken and many of them are starving.This action of the steamship companies was prompted by the expressed determination of br.Jenkins to detain at quarantine every vessel which has ard ae passengers Russian Hebrews, The detention of vessels at quarantine is a matter of large expense to the steamship companies and_this is the reason they will carry no more Russian Hebrews.A Wild Western Entertainment.SPOKANE, Wash., Feb.18.\u2014The opening of the enormous dance

treatment ol Mercier, but as well in the kindly view that he Lakes of the peccadillos of Lhe other ministers.Upon Pacaud and Armstrong he could not well be more severe, but he apparently proceeds throughout on the supposi- Lion that these two men were conscienceless schemers befooling a body of good but un- suspicious philanthropists.Mr, Garneau was the official who, as acting Premier and Commissioner of Rail- wavs, put the whole transaction through.There has been no doubt raised as to his honesty, but the detalis of the deal show every evidence of undue haste and lack of wise precaution.Thom, for instance, was not at any time properly accredited by his company ; and the minister himaeif confesseathät\u2018he was at one time so hurried and hustled by the greedy Pacaud that, sick and discouraged, he was inclined to resign his office.In the face of these facts, which Judge Jetté care fully sets down, he still credits Mr.Garneau with \u2018all care\u201d and \u201call prudence,\u201d The direct inference from this is that, in his opinion, it was wholly impossible to frustrate the designs of Pacaud by any disvlay of care and prudence \u2014in other words, that robbery of the public chest by the $100,000 is unpreventable.Such a doctrine is fatal to the existence of the state and must destroy faith in the responsibility of ministers, The STAR willingly joins issue with the judge on that point and declares that it is possible, with due care and prudence, to prevent the success of such bare-ftaced schemes of plunder.We took that position in the case of Sir Hector Langevin and we still uphold itin the cases of Garneau and Mercier.Hon.J.E.Robldoux does not come off so well, but it would have been exceedingly difficult to have overlooked the active part he took in trying to get Pacaud\u2019s note discounted in Montreal.A minister dealing with a semi-official money transaction, must have known that he could not wholly divest himeelf of his ministerial authority, Putting it in its best light, he was lending his official weight to his friend Pacaud, which is very much on a par with using official knowledge to benefit a friend.But it cannot be believed that he thought this note of Facaud\u2019s an ordinary one.He Had been wholly cognizant of the dealings of the Government with Armstrong and Thom; had written a carte blanche letter to Garneau ratifying \u201cin advance\u201d all that he would do in the matter of the Bale des Chaleurs Railway and urging haste; and had frequent interviews with Garneau about the matter subsequently.Then thls note had attached to it one of J.C.Langeliers official cheques and a letter from Mr, Webb, cashier of the Union Bank, promlsing to honor the cheque when the Government paid its letter of credit for $100,000.Judge Jetté thinks that \"these circumstances are so unusual\u2019 that they should have attracted Mr.Robidoux'\u2019s attention.They did not, however, {{ Mr.Robidoux is to be believed, though he ran around Montreal with the note for several days endeavoring to turn it into cash, If Mr.Robidoux is not to be Delieved, it is hard tosay to where the evidence would point, It would be difficult to Imagine a more ptriking non sequitur than Judge Jetté\u2019s find- fngs in the case of Charles Langelier.The Judge Is very conecientiousin taking note of every occasion upon which the minister is found in connection with Pacaud or pushing forward the agreement with Armstrong.harles Langelier, he tells us, was with the Vremier ou the trip to New York and was \u201cconsequently consulted by the Prime Minister during this journey concerning Mosars, Cooper and Thom\u2019s proposal,\u201d He concurred in Mercler's decision to accept this proposal and was spoken of by Robi- doux as the one to assure tho troubled Gar- noau of the effect of that decision.He took part in the negotiations with Thom, acting tor Robidoux in declaring the Coopér-IThom proposal to bé in conformity with tha statute.\u201cIn Couneil, Mr.Langelier was in favor of accepting the Thom proposal,\u2019 goes on Judge Jetté; and he Is next found accompanying Mr.Pacaud to the Nationai Bank to get the $100,000 letter of credit discounted.\u201cThere ought to be no doubt upon this point\u201d is Judge Jetté\u2019s positive oom- ment ; though he adds the saving clause that Pacaud asserts that he then asked for this discount in Mr.Armstrong\u2019s name.The discount was refused, however, and Pacaud had recourse to the five famous cheques for $20,000 each.Charlies Langelier admits that he was with Pacaud on three separate ocoaslons when he discounted three of them, though Judge Jetté ia inclined to doubt even his admission in one case.In neither instance, of course, does Langelier admit that he knew what Pacaud wanted in the banks, but it must not be forgotten that suoh an admission would be fatal.Then come the payments to Lan- relier, which Judge Jotté himself records in detail, and which were begun two days after: the first note nad been discounted.This is the story as Judge Jotté himseil tells it; and yet he follows it up with a conolusion that

enfold his cllent, to endeavor to scare the jury by reading to them a long list of sensational cases in which innocent men have been hanged by cireumstantial evidence.Mr, Blackstock\u2019s conduct at the famous Birchall trial was not altogether froe from this strategy.The tricks of the trade, of course, have not reached the beneh, but it irrepressibly suggests this old ruse to find the judge

Compagnie d\u2019imprimerie du Canada, publishers of Le Monde, which was firat presented in September, last in the name of the Quebec Bank.He said that several judgments were pending against the paper and that it was of the greatest interest to the creditors that the assets should not be parcelled out.Mr.Joseph, on behalf of defendants, objected.The claim of the Quebec Bank had been the subject of a trial before Judge Davidson, who had not yet given his decision, and until that was done, the petition should not be granted.The petition was continued until udge Davidson shall have given his judgment.To Return Shortly.In the middle of November last a case was begun against James Fraser Btewart, of the firm of Verrat, Stewart & Company, in the Police Court.He was charged with having sold

HER CHILD.A LADY MONTACUE A MURDERESS.A Terrible Disgrace for One of the Aristo- eratic Families of Ireland\u2014 4 Severe Punishment.BELFAST, February 18.\u2014A despatch from Coleralue in County Londonderry, 47 miles from here, says that Lady Anna Margaret Montague, daughter-in-law of Lord Robert Montague, was committed for trial this morning on the charge of causing the death of her daughter, Mary Helen Montague, a child only three years of age.Only the bare details of the affair are known at present, as the greatest efforts have been made to keep tha matter secret and to shield as far as possiole the important family involved ; but the crime is of such a shooking nature that the servants, neighbors and others insisted that justice should be done, and there seems Lo be a prospect thet a lady of the Montaguefamily may meet death at the hangman\u2019s hands From the accounts of the affair that have reached here it seema that the poor child had been badly used by Its governess, in addition to being the object of hatred of its mother.In faci, the harsh action of the governess seams to have led up to the tragedy.The latter, it seems, for some childish escapade upon the part of her charge, lockegÆhe fittle giri up in à dark room as a p ment, and then informed the mother of the child\u2019s offence and of the punishment she had meted out to her for it.The mother appears to have become so enraged at her little daughter's conduot that she resolved to punish her still more severely, and oing to the dark room in which the child rad un confined by the governess, Lady Montague tied her baby daughter's arms behind her back with some stout string, which cut deeply into the child's tender llmbs, and then, not satisfled with this severe treatment, she connected the end of this string about thé child's arms to a rin, in the wall, hall stringing her up and half fastening her to the wall, in order, apparently, to prevent her from moving about while she was under punishment.After the mother left the child in the position mentioned the poor child's cries grew fainter and then ceased entirely.Those who noticed that the child bad ceased crying came to the conclusion that she bad become recou- ciled to her imprisonment in the dark room and that she had concluded that the less noise she made the sooner she would be placed at liberty.At the expiration of three hours the door of the dark room was visited and when several knooks at the door failed to obtain a reply from the child, the door was opened and the little one was seen huddled up around the ring in the wall, the body being upheld by the cruel string fastened under her arms and secured to the ring referred to.Her face was horribly alscolored and distorted and a further examination showed that poor little Mary was dead, having been choked to death.Modical attendance was sent for, but all efforts to bring the child back to life proved fruitless, The physician, servants and neighbors who heard of the affair were furiously indignant against the cruel mother, and insisted that justice should be done.Lady Montague was taken into custody.She said that ahe was utterly broken hearted at what had occurred, and that her sole object in fasténing the child to the wall was to prevent her from kicking at the door of the room in which she had been confined, and so disturbing the family.COLONEL RHODES DEAD.The Former Provincial Minister of Agriculture a Victim of the Influenza.QUEBEC, February 18.\u2014Hon.Wm.Rhodes, better known as Colonel Rhodes, formerly a member of the Mercier Cabinet, died yesterday at his residence, Benmore, on the Cap Rouge road beyond Bergerville, Deceased had been suffering from an attack of the influenza and was in a fair way to recover, when on Tuesday night he was struck down by paralysis and never recovered consciousness, Deceased was one of the best known citizens of Quebee, an \u2018Englishman by birth.Col.Rhodes, as a young man,

yesterdey's Srar from Mr.W.G.Ross, vice-president of the Amateur Bkating Aseoclation.After the letter, Mr.Donoghue expressed himself ns surprised to tind his statement ia regard to money offers had appeareu in print, He said that he bad made it simply en passant and that the same was literally true.Un being asked r he was willing to furnish the 2 of the | uries from whom these ers came ted that unfortunately he pot thon with him, although possibly be might them amongst his papers at home.He ne riext aeked whether he couid formulate any one individual offer that had been made to him, and replied that at the time of receiving these offers he Ad no attention In particular to them.He had rested them simply as a \u2018try-on from business parties who catered to sport merely for the commercial benefit they were able to obtain.He had made no reply to the letters sent him, and As it Was now two years ago or moge eince these letters reached him he was unable to speak very definitely.He, however, re- embered the contents of one of them.Ii was from the manager of one of the lesser rinks, apd in il the suggestion made was that he should receive $100;and all expenses uaranteed him to compete {in three races, he proposal being that he should lose one of these in order to provide greater attraction and interest in the races tor the publie He explained that he was far too well acquainted with the Integrity of the Amateur Skating Association of Canada,for one moment to Impute that Any such offer should originate from them; the idea was absurd, He explained that {i was a , common thing for well known amateurs to receive offers from managers of private speculations of money to compete in \u201cput up\u201d races for the purpose of gate money and thebetting profits, in response to a question as to whether he wolld himself reply through these columns to the letter of the vice president, he said that he was unwill- to be drawn into a news aper contro- vorsy which must only tend\u2019 to create ill feeling.He desired the STAR, however, to publish his statement that not for one moment had he lmagived that the Amateur Skating Association would fee!

themselves for the time Loing with athietics in the same spirit as woul _ influence an ordinary \u201cshow\u201d manager, and trusted that this explanation would be ace copted by the Amateur Nxatinæ Association and dispal any little untriendiy spirit that the utterance seswed to have given birth to.Mr.Donoghue expressed himseif delighted with the Canadian hospitality that had been 80 freely shown

purposes It was impossible for him \"to accept many social engagements, ln\u2019reply to a question as to whether he was confident of returning home with the Canadian championship, he replied that be

America, has decided to retire from further active work as an athlete.His retirement, to- &ether with that of Rubenstein, removes from the skating world two of its most prominent figures.Phillips can leave active athletics with great bonor, us he has undoubtedly heen engaged in sports longer than any other athlete now competing, his time of service being twenty-tive years.During that time he has won upwards of i two hundred medals at skating, rowing, running and walking.In speed skating he has won the championship twelve times, his first competition being in this city in 1867, where the Windsor Hotel now stands.His victories included several world\u2019s records at distances from one hundred yards to twenty- six miles, some of which have never been broken.At fancy skating he won the American championship twice, Last year, at Albany, he and Rubenstein scored the same number of points and each took a medal.This year he defeated J.l.Bacon, of Boston, whom he Considers a frst-clase man, an easy and graceful skater in every particu- Jar.With a iittie more practice, Champion Phillips thinks that Bacon w a most dangerous competitor for anybody.Not Champion ef America.The New York Herald in its announcement of the retirement of George D.Phillips, the champion tigure skater of the United States, forgets in calling him cham- ! pion of America that he never wop the champlonship of Canada.It -might also be suggested that the fact of Rubenstein\u2019s retirement does not deprive him of the championship.Another M.À.A.A.Carnival, The Montreal Rink Committee met last evening, when it wae arranged to have another carn.val on Friday, March 4.At the last carnival there existed some doubt in the mind of visitors as to whether ladies and gentlemen not in costume were permitted to dance after leaving the ice.The benefit of a doubt was given them, but at the next event the menager ment have put a ing allowed the floor unless \\n fancy dress.The committee xp that the entire effect of the com- is spoiied by the admittance of plain Slot ed persons.Bo it is trusted that the visitors will save themselves from needless vexation by attending to this rule.Gordon on Deck, Lovers

February 16.\u2014Iu spite of the large membership of the Manhattan Ath- etic Club and the popularity of their bowling alleys, billiard room, swimming tank, bar and restaurant, their big gymnasium\u2019 has been very poorly patronized.Visitors to the olub bouse have often wondered why the gymnasium was s0 empty, but no ons seems to know the reason.The ciub has an excellent plan of apooint- ing directors of different sports.These rectors are chosen from the members and are generally representative men in the various sports they are chosen to command, It was not, however, until September, 1891, that the gymnasium was taken hold of witn the endeavor to place 1ton à standard of opularity with other branches, Malcolm W.Ford was Lhen asked to take a fatherly interest in the gymnasium, select a gym- nastio instructor and he responsible for its management.He examined applicants for the position and decided upon C.P.Linhars.DE \u201cord was then taken siok with typhoid fever hv di not go near the club for three months, When he visited the club last month he found things not to be as smooth as they should be.When the Hoard of Governors appointed new directors of sports for thea ensuing year Ford was asked to continug With his position, but he de- olined.To a reporter Ford sald: \u201cYes, I have declined to serve, not because I think it is a hobeless task to develop interest in the MA.C Gympaslum, nor because 1 am not interested in the welfare of the club, but simply because my interest in the olub\u2019s wellare is not great enough to cause me to inconvenience myseif to be up there two or three evenings per week, us I consider I would be forced to do to fill the position properly.The gymnasium of the M.A.U.is quite different from other departments, and needs attention and busi- ness-like management to bring the members to it.At present the club has no gymnasts ameng the 3000 members, but I do not eare to undertake the task of butid- ing the place up.The only good I would et from it is that there would be an ncentive to exercise myself, but unless things work smoothly Ido not care to devote my time bothering with it.\u201cThen you wiil admit there is troubled\u201d asked the reporter, \u201cNo, there is no trouble, only I think there \u2018might bein the near future.When a man {8 giving voluntary services he does not wish to be hampered in any serious way.lt takes too much time to broak down obstacles, \u201cBas, Dr.bart done as well as you thoug \u201cI 5 i\u201d think he has had a chance to show what he can do in ways that I consider would be his stronghold.I knew he was not an expert gymnast, but he was highly recommended as being an excelient teacher.1 did net hire him to teach athletes thrilling feats, for 1 find that such people, if they have it in them, will Jearn from their comrades soon enough, but I thought he was an excellent man for the average member of the J.He has nad practical experience in medicine, and is thoroughly familiar with ordinary gymnastics, just the kind that 1 consider an average map needs.Dr.Linhart is able to make examinations and measurements of men, and prescribe for them certain exercise, and this is far more beneficial to the average member than the mere ability to teach a few expert gymnasts some more thrilling feats.Plenty of men can be found, apd hired cheaply,who can perform giant swings, roil-rounds, grapevines, ete.1 do not think, however, that such men would be congenial company for the average M.A, C.member.The Shamrock Bazaar.Final arrangements are being made for the successful opening of the Shamrock bazaar.Sir Donaid Smith\u2019s munificent contribution of a thousand dollars towards the Shamrock Ground Fund has given an extra incentive to the lady and gentieman workers und inspired many backward citizens with an {impulse of generosity, several important donations having been received yesterday and to-day.Thelad{es will

programme.For the consolation of very nervous young men, it may be remarked that the ladles at their as (meeting decided to refrain from troubling em our soliciting contributions in the body of the bazaar hall, a privilege A in many similar affairs has very often beeri abused.The ladies will give their attention to the particular department to which they are attached, and visitors will be at liberty to Inspect the many handzome exhibits under the preserv-~ ing guardianship of a member of the gentlemen's committee.The Highland Cadets have presented the committee with a picture of their corps which will be disposed of during the bazaar.he cadets have also volunteered to furnish an entertainment some evening during the week, and it is unnecessary to say that their kind offer will be accepted.Professors Fowler, Wilson, McGuirk and Shea will manage all musical matters.Awarding of Prizes.There was a pleasant gathering at No.5 Police station last night.The Garrison boys were there, and in the interchange of #ood wishes, victor and vanquished forgot their differences of the previous night,when they had pulled in opoosite directions.Alter the gunners had drunk the health of | the

but he was tated that Mra.Campden should know that he had accepted er husband\u2019s offer as to the bill-drawing, or that any, sp such offer had been made.What right b any man to do à kindness and then ie and boast of arte excuse himself for it was all one-\u2014to his wife?At such a moment, it was perhaps natural in him to exaggerate the importano of hisown affairs; to consider that, under the circumstances, no matter what was his friend\u2019s domestic thraldom, that little favor\u2014or rather the promise i of it,if any necessity should arise \u2014 mig ht have beau.kept private between them.[er ow Dalton!\u201d ore the other earnestly.\u201cIt is only the form, and not the thing, that is changed; and you know J am not changed.\u201cA man and his wife are one,\u201d answered Dalton; \u2018\u2018very much one, it seems, in this case, since you think it necessary to tell her every trumpery thin \u201cMy g good fellow, to tell you the honest truth, I could not have got the money without it,\u201d interrupted Camp- den esperately.\u201cYou don\u2019t know\u2014 you can\u2019t understand; she is a very good woman in her way, is \"Jul ia, and I know you won't say anything against her,\u201d answered he hurriedly; \u201cbut sometimes she will take the bit between her teeth.\u201d \u201cAnd then she runs aw \u2014with all your money, does she?'\u2019 said Dalton, unable to repress a smile.He was still angry, but only against this woman; tor his friend fie now felt only pity mingled largely with contempt.We rarely make allowance for other people's weaknesses, although we have such excellent excuses for our own.\u201cWell, 1 must confess she keeps me rather short,\u201d said Campden ruefully.\u201cCome to Brazil with me!\u201d cried Dalton.It was a sneer equal to a folio of disdain, gd the next moment he was for it.SONO; old fellow, I can\u2019t do that,\u201d returned his friend \u2018good-naturedly.\u201cWe have all to put up with something, and I know many better men in far WOTBe case than I\u2014you yourself, for instance.\u201d \u201cI seem to myself to the worst- used man in the world,\u201d answered Dalton frankly.\u201cLet that be my apology it) I have spoken fan Good-bye, à end.\u201cGood-bye, Jobn.And although 2 Something had been interposed that day between\u2019 their friendship, whieh Was never removed, they shook hands with genuine feeling.Campden and Mary came in bid their guest farewell together.The former averred fo her husband that she could not trust herself to wish that ood-bye, alone, without giving man g him a piece of her mind his ARH ast conduct (that is, on ruin- family), as well some Prin as to the future; but, na mat ter of fact, she was afraid of Dalton, 1fishe had known what her \u201cGeorge\u201d bad been just confessing, she would have been much more afraid.However, Dalton\u2019s manner towards his hostess was studiously polite, and Mary's presence saved them from any possible embarrassment.He was a genuine favorite with the young lady, and she was very \u2018 Eu ushing\u2019\u2019 upon his departure and about the care she meant to take of his dear girls when he was gone.\u201cWe shall be quite © near neighbors to them, remember, Dalton,\u201d remarked her mother, as though he were likely to forget the Nook's locality.She was very nervous, and said little beyond that, except her parting speech, which was common-place enoug and y under the vs not a Nitta Poonltar.\u201cWell, food e Mr.Dalton, and hope you'll enjoy >> yoursel£.\u201d As \u2018though, in place of a voyage to Brazi 1, he were going to \u201cspend a happy day\u201d at Rosher- ville Gardens, as Dalton described it afterwards, But the truth is that, dificult as it is to find fit words to say to a man we dislike, when we meet him, it is much more ditficult to do the like when we part from him, and e especially if the occasion is à sentimental one \u2018We need not describe the leaye-taking between Dalton and his own belongin indeed there was little said on either side; for thelr hearts were too full for speech.To Edith, as we have mentioned, he had already bidden good-bye; but now, finding, though the carriage was at the door, that he had still a few minutes to spar, al longing seized him to see her once e¢ rushed upstairs, and hastily pes rod the room; but she heard him not.She was kneeling down by the bedside with her back towards him, and her face shut within her bands.\u201cProtect him m, and bring him back to my dear ones,\u201d he heard her praying, in earnest, assionate tones, Deeply moved, be hesitated a moment, and then softly withdrew.He would not inter rupt that rapt gamma between his wife and her God.| had she said \u201cto my dear ones,\u201d us not \u2018to me?\u201d he wondered; but presently set it down to her freedom from the thought of \u2018self,\u2019 which might not intrude even in her prayers.For once he did her more than justice; it was not unselfishness that had dictated Edith\u2019s words.She had had such warnings in the way of physical weakness, that she given up all hopes of his return to her; she was not imploring heaven for a miracle; but only that her children should not be left in a world that no longer smiled upon them, without one patent.= CHAPTER XXIX.MR.HOLT ASKS MAMMA, Is it worse for us who depart from this world and all we really love (because from all of which we have any ractical experience), or for those who ove us and are leit?Surely\u2014let us Tgvorent) hope-infinitely worse for not, woe indeed to man, and headin ad the marsh fire all the flame of faith, the glow of aspiration.And what (we hope) is true of a death-bed parting, is certainly true of tho ose Sore.shadowings of it, a man's dep re on long travel, or emigration across pl or a8 gone to his business, and will be more or less taken up with and immersed in it;

Bulow played aided him notably in his artistio utterances.The tone was penetrating, but mellow, powerful and plastic, instantly adapting itself to the mood of the player ; it whispered and roared at his command.The evenness and tonal balance of its scale were severely put to the test in the trying compositions of Beethoven which often consists of a single note high in the treble supported by a simple chord in the deep bass.But at no one moment did the idea of disproportion enter the minds of the listeners, and Bulow publicly expressed himself as delighted with the instrument ; no mere idle empty compliment, for he is the style of man who would refuse to play on an instrument he disliked, even if the audience were in full view.The sonority and liquidity of the Knabe Piano, with its adaptability for coloring, enhanced the afternoon's performance considerably.WILLIS & CO.1824 Notre Dame street, SOLE AGENTS For the unequalled ENABE Pianos.4it 2 otal House PHILLIPS $0, MONTREAL Artistic Footwear.OLONIAL HOUSE Shoe Department is increasing in favor with the Ladies of Montreal and surrounding country.We are prepared to do the finest trade, end have bought goods that will please both in Style.Fit and Durability.We parry all widths.Ladies who have any trouble in getting Shoes to fit properly, will do weil by investing in a pair of our perfect- fitting Boots, Bhoes or Slippers\u2014 once tried, we are assured of your patronage.We carry a large variety of Children\u2019s Goods, and particular attention is paid to the fitting on of Children\u2019s Shoes.Boots, Shoes and Slippers wear much better if the proper fitting is obtained.All goods warranted to wear well.Complaints, if any, are made satisfactory.The following lines have been reduced since stocktaking: \u2014 Ladies\u2019 B.Dongola Button Boots, Sizes, 2} to 7.82.00, former price 82.50.Ladies\u201d Heavy Sole Oxford Shoes, Sizes, 23 to 7.\" $3.00, tormer price 88.50.Ladies American Button Boots, A, B, C D and E widths.83.50, former price 84.00.Opera and Common-Sense Toes Ladies\u2019 Fine French Kid Button Boots, Hand-Sewed Turn, AI Widths.85.00, former price 85.50.Children's Button Boots Spring He and Heel, Sizes, 7 to 10.Price 81.25.Ladies\u201d Felt Sippers - - 7h A full assortment of Ladies\u2019 Rubbers and Cloth Over-Gaiters.Now in Stock Children*s Felt Shippers - 50 À nice, light slipper in different colors.Ladies, see our Cork Sole Boot for Spring Wear, A Splendid Walking Boot, (loth-top Boots in Button and Lace Somothing Very Nice.Infants\u2019 Boots and Slippers In endless variety.Remember our Reduced Lines.N.B.\u2014-Mail Orders promptly and carefully attended Poe & Co.HENRY & À E, HAMILTONS ANNOUNOBMENT.Clearing Sale.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 REMNANTS.The greatest sale we have ever experienced for a short time longer.GENUINE CLEARANCE OF Mantles, Jackets, Ulsters Remain at the greatly Reduced prices for a few days longer, in order to sell out all Winter garments to make special arrangements for our coming show of SPRING MANTLES, which will not take place until the 1st March, when we will display all the later Novelties from all the leading centres of fashion\u2014LONDON, PARIS, BERLIN, Eto.Mail Orders Receive Every Attention.HENRY & N.E HAMILTON, Victoria Square, Montreal alt CARSLET BROS, St.Catherine Street, ARE NOW SHOWING A CHOICE COLLECTION OF French sateens English Prints PRICES RANGING from 5e, up to 35c Per Yard CARSLEY BROS., 242 hie) WEST END, EAST END, 1575 AND 1577 On St.Catherine Street.4111 3813 Jaw KOSHER SAUSAGES and MEATS you arrive by express from Goldmann, of New ork, TO-MORROW (FRIDAY) RVENING.FRIDAYS and SATURDAYS always biz days for the sale of our FINE BREAKFAST TEAS AND COFFEES.Fine English Breakfast Teas.THE YERY FINEST BLACK AND JAPAN TEAS.Stocks have now beon replenished, and we offer consumers some choice lots THE VERY OHOICEST ENGLISH BREAKFAST coNGOU, 900 0 arcels.er pound 15 Sidon ofalt zon.© \u201d FANCY ENGLISH BREAKFAST : SOUCHONG TEA.La 65 1 onn Arceilr 50 per pond is side of a res.> P EXTRA BREAKFAST CONGOU TEA, 60c per poünd in 1 pound parcels.500 per pound in eaddisa of all sizes.OUR NPE£CIAL BLEND OF BREAKFANT TEA .450 and in und parcels, 400 per pound In caddies of a ren.5 pe OUR FAMOUS 36¢ ENGLISH BREAKFAST TEA, 153 half-oheats, upwards of 10,000 pounds of this po, ler grade in store.pat uality strictly maintained.sme price to One and all.8 cents per pound in 1 pound packages.mn caddi all size 38 canta per pound in half chest, FINEST QUALITY JAPAN TEAS.and 60 cents per pound, Choice Japan Te 38\" cents per voun and Fine Japan Tes = caddies of sizes, Ÿ5 cents per ib, Try the experiment of roasting 8 \u201cFerris\u201d Ham ing to the recipe we fa , and see how Aelightful the resuit will be.THE FERRIS Delicious Hams and Bacon slide out nicely this Clear, Crisp Wintry Weather.We bave much pleasure in drawing the atten- th;

asking for money or to the subsequent ones containing threats, But, hearing that the ssme game had been played upon other noblemen, he handed the document in the case to Mr, Henry Labouchere, the editor of Truth.Inspector Marshall of Scotland Yard testified to having arrested Morland at Oxford, adding that while he was travelling on the train with the prisoner, on his way back to London, the latter informed him that he had written the letter for a certain Mrs.Maitland, who, according to Mor- land, was a lady of eminence and a great Nihilist.The case was put in the hands of detectives, who finally arrested Mr.Maitland (Francis Morland), the prisoner, of 23 Alfred street and 23 St, John street (one house) & law tutor, Who resided at the address mentioned, with his wife and two young

the Field.There was a arge number of the electors of the St.Louis Division present this morning at the Conservative headquarters, Chateau de Ramezuy, to tender the nomina- Lion for tue representation of that division in the Local Legislature to Mr.Damase Parizeau, lumber merchant.Mr.Parizeau accepted the candidature as an Iudepen- dent-Liveral, who was most decidedly opposed to all kinds of

Government, which was for honesty and purity in poiitieal affairs.He thanked the slectors of the division, both Conservatives aud Liberals, for the honor, and for the confidence they reposed in him, and promised them to do his duty faithfully as their member.He intended to go right into the contest to win and looked for the hoarty support of every honest voter.Cheers greeted his few remarks.The

and Ignores that of Judges Baby and Davidson, Hon, Mr.Mercier being asked {f he had read the reports of the Commissioners, published in Jast evening's BTAR, and opinion thereon, sald: * Yes, 1 hava read these reports with great interest.1am very glad, indeed, that they have been published, and I think it was but fair that Lhev should, Messrs, Baby and Davidson's report is but an extended edition of their interim report, and there is nothlug In it that was not in the first report that deserves any special attention.It suffices to say that there is not one word in either of their reports against me personally, and although the intenti®n of the learned judges to incriminate me as much as possi~ ble is manifest, they did not uare to do it directly and positively, I may add, with due respect to Judges Baby and Davidson, that their final report being but a repetition of their interim report will have no eflect upon the honest public.It will be understood by every one that they could not change their first report.They had to stick to it even after having read Mr.Jette\u2019s report.This report of Mr, Jette's seems to have been prepared with great care and with the intention of rendering justice to all parties concerned.In reading it we find the language of a judge, not that of a partizan, of a judge who is In the habit of summing up facts and legal points and drawing logical conclusions.The first thing that must strike the publie is the letter sent on December 14 last by Mr.Jetté tothe Lisutenant-Governor, nn official, not a personal letter, In which the Judge gives his reasons why he cannot sign the interim report.This letter, coupled with the tinal remarks of Judge Jetté, in which he states that although he had consented to an interim report, he was obliged to refuse to sign the one prepared by his two colleagues, because it was not in his opinion according to facts and circumstances, and, finally, the haste in which this interim report was used as a ground for my removal from office, is conclusive evidence that that dismissal was the result of a conspiracy, and that the end in view was to be obtained by all means, even in ignoring Mr.Jetté's dissidence aud illness.As you know, I asked for a copy of that letter, sent by Judge Jetté, and the Lieutenant-Governor refused It\u2014 unfairiy, 1 must say\u2014under the pretence that It was to considered A PERSONAL LETTER.I ask every fair man to tell me how that letter can be considered personal, and how it could bave been refused under the elr- cumstances, Of course Mr, Jetté\u2019s report and conclusions must be found satisfactory to my friends, and even, I may.add, my opponents who are not my personal euernles.The whole transaction is explained with that clearness which characterizes Mr.Jettéd's legal mind, and all the cireum- Stances are entered into with all possibie detail, in such a way that, after having read the report, every one may draw the same conclusions that the Judge has drawn.What are these conclusions?Allow me to repeat them lo you as they are given in yesterday's STAR.Mr.Mercier here read the conclusion of the report.as published yesterday, and continued, \u201cSo the Government of which I was the head is entirely and ciearly exonerated from every biame.| am held personally innocent of any of the accusaticns brought against me.My old friend, Mr.Garneau, who represented me ag acting-Prime Minis- teg duriog the whole transaction, and who accused by Judges Baby and Davidson of carelessness, is revenged by Judge Jette in the most just and flattering terms.My two colleagues, Messrs.Robidoux and Langeller, against whom our opponents have been so severe and unjust, are declared blameless, and, finally, my good friends Desmarals and other menibars of tue Legislature, upon whose characters their enemies had tried to throw some doubts.ARE ENTIRELY IXONERATED.\u2018There Is no doubt but that if this report of Judge Jetté's had Leen given with the Interim report of his two colleagues, Mr, Angers would not have dared to dismiss me, and, therefore, if Mr.Angers had waited, as it was his duty, for this report, we would have avoided the actual crisis, the actual elections and the immonse expense that they are going to bring on the pro- vidoe.The thres commissioners were im- oice and upon me by Mr, Angers.There was e would not listen

Queszo, February 18.\u2014Quebecers were bigh in their praise this morning of the enterprise displayed by the STAR in pub- i1shing both reports of the Baie des Chaleurs Commission and at ten o\u2019clock the STAR could not be had in any store.La Matin publishes a lengthy instalment of Judges Davidson and Baby's report and will publish the rest in to-morrow\u2019s edition.L'Etecieur only contains a short synopsis of Judge Jetté's report, and editorialiy says: \u201cThis decision was anxiously expected by the whole population.It was to a certain extent foreseen, as it was officially known that the president of the Commission did not concur in the interim report of his colleagues and that he was preparing a separate report.~It was then evident that he differed with Judges Baby and Davidson.But we waited until Judge Jetté spoke.Thousands of Conservatives hesitated and said: We will abide by hia opinion and if he does not condemn the ercier Government it will be our duty to absolve}it, Now Judge Jetté has given hig decision, which is favorable to th Mercier Government.As the Lieut-Governor dwelt upon Baie des Chaleurs affairs to dismiss Mr.Mercier and his friends, the conclusion can now be drawn that MR.ANGERS\u2019 ACT I8 CONDEMNED.The latter committed a fault, ap injustice, in dismissing his council and re- lacing them by irresponsible people.o should have kept Mr, ercier, and all that followed his dismissal te illegal, the dissolution nf houses, elections, Royal Commission, etc.If sickness had not prevented Judge Jette to complete his\u2019 work to-Décétriber, there would have been no crisis.Dir.Angers is thus con- vinoed that he profited by the sickness of the chairman to hasten things and to satisfy an old grudge.The De Boucherville Government which took upon ite shoulders the responsibility of that act ls thus responsible for all the expenses incurred, and for the public damages caused by tne despotio conduct of the Lieut.-Governor.Toronto Press Comments.[SPECIAL TO THE STAR].ToroNTO, February 18\u2014The Mai, commenting on the reporte of the Commission on the Baie des Chaleurs scandal, says: \u201cIt ie not possible to believe that any of the judges were led to their conclusions by poll.tieal considerations and it is better for both sides to discuss the issue without any reference to the former associations of these gentlemen, It is to be hoped that those of us who are ready to believe that the judges would approach so grave a question ina party spirit and with a determination to tavor the side of politica from which they are now removed, are few and far between, But Judge Jetté\u2019's report, while an exoneration of Mr.Mercier on the letter of the testimony, is not so distinct a clearance as the ex-Premier ought to desire, It Joins with the majority in condemning the toil-taking ractice in which Mr.Pacaud, the ex- remier\u2019s agent,was engaged.No stronger utterances against this innovation could be framed than those Judge Jetté has committed to paper.\u201d None of the other city pavers comment editorially on the reports of the Commission TRADE, COMMERCE AND FINANCE, (Continued from Page Four.) « London cables reported a somewhat quiet market, without much change, while New York was about steady.The market here, to a certain extent, reflected the tone of these advices.Cable came somewhat into prominence this morning on some realizing sales by holders who have been in, for a long time, and consequently was rather weaker in ton welling down at the last to 1 Te the lowest figure touched for some oO | ine, On the other side also it was dull, Leing quoted 8 somewhat the equivalent of whi at 164,the eq : o above tie Mon rice radian Pacifie MONTREAL STOCK EXCHANGE Reported tor the Briar by Gordon Birathy & Co.Block Brokers, u Bf, Bacramant sireet Close February 18, February 17.asked bid saked bid Bk.of Montreal 220 21834 #22 217 0 = _ \u2014 \u2014 Ontario.\u2014 1234 - 1 TH Peoples d.9 9 , Molsens.82 206 288% au0\u201d Toronto.\u2014 225 \u2014 _ Jacques 10 104 110 104 Merchants.50% 14846 145% 140 K.\u2018Lownaskips.oo _ \u2014 \u2014 Guedes.\u2014 11 126 120 on sis 194 135 184 mi £ 4 : Ville Marie.9 t, _ 22 _ ockelags.15 113 M5 113% C.Cabie U0) âbm 148 140s 140 ln.Goat vo.- - - \u2014 0 -\u2014 -_\u2014 \u2014 _ Mont, Telegraph 28 128 130!

and intimates that J.D.ockefeller of the Standard Oil Company, James T.North, \u201cThe Nitrate King,\u201d and John W.Mackay, the bonanza mtllionaire, are back of it.Th aper claims that sales of wheat on the Jhicago Board of Trade alone re- gate seventy million to eighty ion bushels, whereas there are less than forty million bushels of actual wheat in the west, leaving about forty million bushels whieh are really wind\u201d sales and must covered at whatever price the.market touches, but this \u201cis not ail.Similar short sales have been wade in all of the principal markets in this country and Liverpool.It is asperted that the alleged combination of millionaires sent agents abroad and seaured accurate information as to the real shortage nthe orop and as early as the middle of December began to quietly ick up all the wheat offered, working nrough comparatively unknown brokers, traders who were accustomed to deal in small lots, and that they thus without attracting attention secured absolute control of the market.Whether or not the price will be put to a higher figure is known only to the clique.PERSONAL fama R.T.Devlin, of Ottawa, {8 at the Windsor, 8ir A.P.Caron is in

tickets were procured, claiming that they were given under an agreement between the Grand Trunk and r.Peter Ryan.He argued that the Grand Trunk had intended at the time the \u2018 tickets were issued that should not be paid for, but elections having resulted of the Liberals and the return of the ernment, the railway company Dow des! to show that it had beon absolutely fair to both parties.As a result the Liberals of North Perth were made the scapegoat.The Liberal leaders in Toronto had come to the decision to sacrifice a riding or two rather than make public the details of their agree ment with the Grand Trunk Railway.Mr.Justice Strong said it seemed very strange to him that if the tickets were not meant to be granted free of charge that Mr.Wainwright should have sent his confidential man to distribute them.If they were to be paid for they would not have been distributed in such a manner, He added that in his opinion the Grand Trunk Railway in interfering in electiors in the way it had done, had committed a atrong violation of its powers as a coroora- tion and a breach of the duty due by its managers to its shareholders.The case is still In progress.argument for Opening of the
