Joliette, Que., January 88.\u2014Practically the entire sitting of the Court in the Nulty murder trial yesterday was taken up with the expert evidence ot Dr.J.B.A.Lamarche, a professor in medicine at Laval University, Editor of L'Union Medicale and a well known authority in medical jurisprudence.His evidence was very favorable to the defence.Dr.Lamarche, it appeared, had been sonsulted by the defence\u2019s counsel some weeks ago, and bad made a special study of the case, from the pbint of view of medical science.having closely examined the oner and carefully gone over ail the instances ol Tow Nulty's peculiar ao- tions for some years past, as related to him at the time by Mr.De Salaberry.Although the doctor admitted yesterday that some of the points which had thus heen told to him beforchand had not been satisfactorily established by the evidence in Court, still! he stated that enough had baen proved to lead him to helieve, conscientiously, that the prisoner was an eplleptio\u2014a degenerate\u2014and that at the time he co tted the murder be Was uot responsible for his actions.The fret question which Mr.Archer had to ask ol! witness in the afternoon had reference to the bleedinæ of the nose which several witnesses had testified to having frequently noted in the prisoner.Witness saf{d that as bleeding at the nose when mol caused by a blow on that or gan indicated too much blood in the ne- glon of the brain.ao it was also often a concomitant of epilepsy.\u201c11°?then asked Mr.Archer, *\u2018this aus- preted epileptic were to suddenly kill, a is three sisters and his brother, would you consider that as still further was suffering trom the in ted disease 17 **Yes,\u201d replied witness, \u2018\u2018tmpulsiveness without reason being one characteristic of epilepey, ! should comsider such a deed a farther prool of the existence of the disease, *And it, after killing, say, his first sister, he lost all knowledge of his subse quent acts and during this loss of consciousness he committed r similar acts of violence, would you consider thia also in keeping with the known charect- eristica of an epileptio t\u201d **Yes, an epileptic would be quite likely to lose his consciousness whdle in the per- tormance of the act.\u201d **And it this person, after the crime, confessed his guilt freely, opemly, to strangers would you consider that a for ther evidence of epilepsy 1% \u2018*Yes, for au eplleptic seldom tries to bide his crime,\u201d was the reply.Cohtinuing, witness sald, re to farthet questions by Ar, Afcher, that there was no doubt that an epileptic might comanit a crime with know edge of his act at the titme, and yet he absolutely powerless to restrain himself from the commission of the crime.It would be quite possible lor such a person to retain his memory of the deed and yet be at'the time thr Teen wus dune quite without reason\u2014to all intents end purposes insane.He might even be sufiiciently con scious of his act to try to keep himeell from doing it, but ineffectually, the im pulse being uncontrollable.The peculiarities ot epileptic fits were then further described by witness, who sald that the attack was generally preceded by premonitory s toms, recog- nizsed, oftentimes, by e patient him- sell.Sometinies the victim was able to restrain the impulses which might come upon bim at such moments; sometimes he was powerless to do 80.\u201cFrom what you Know ol the prisoner, doctor, and from the evidence you have heard,\u201d asked Mr.Archer, * do consider the prisoner an eplleptict\u201d \u201cFrom what I know, I believe In my conscience that he is a victim of epilepsy o! a nervous, impulsive type,\u201d was the reply.fel.Dugas them opened his cross-exam- ination by asking if witness had formed an opinfon as to the merits of the case velore catering the witness box, and received the rep y that he (witness) must oertainly confess that he had formed an opinion, Mr.Dugas then wanted to Know if, at the time the counsel for the defence had asked him to act as medical expert In the case, he (the witness) had not been led to expect that more facta would be roven bearing upon the prisoner\u2019s eanity han had sctuslly been proven.Witnesa replied that there bad been a number of such points which had not been proven, at least not to his satistaction, fn Court.In reply to another question, witness paid it was not.possible oy rer iy act of a persan\u2019s suscepti o epile sy by à simple diagnosis of the case, without recourse to exterior symptoms, such as absence of mind, éte, Mr.Dugas next sought to extract from witness an admission that y has no s found where no epilepsy person, for instance, he said, might have a headache, without epllepey; be might loce track of his turn to play at cards, and yet not be eplleptic.AV'ot which witness admitted, ut said the same o! vations might apply to any other oase.a further guestion, witness ner anid thab the fact that the had not comfessed his guilt until accused of the orime, did not at all trom the value of his (wétness\u2019) statement that it was a peoullanity of epileptics to always admit their t .and never to tell what was fale, It was quite possible that the prisoner\u2019s ection of having killed any of bds sisbors was never clear untdi hs was actually acoused of: the crimes by Detectéve MocCaakill, His indifterence throughout tie whol fay to lead to this belie.ing bi : mie,\u201d ° was -_ play!

Ottawa, January $8.\u2014The Customs authorities have been notified that the Alaskan relief expedition will leave Port~ land, Oregon, about February 1, under command of Gen.Meriman and will probably proceed northward in two divisions, one taking the Dalton and the otherthe Chilkoot trails.An orderin-Councll will be put through allowing all the belongings of the expedition to pass through Canadian territory free, The Government have received unofiicla) information from Washington that a settlement of the existing difficulties in con- peotion with Yukou matters, especially a8 between the Customs Departments of the two natlons, will be speedily arranged satistactorily, YUKON RAILWAY Winnipeg, Janua g .\u2014Commenting editorially on the Stickeen River railway route to the Yukom, the Tribune says: \u201cIt is impossible to say that the decision is not right, No doubt the Government hae gone into the matter carefully, and will be pared to produce evidence before Parliament that their decision was the best one that could be made.All the same, the announcement and the terms of the construction of the rallway are rather startling and calculated to take one's breath away, Much depends on where ths lands are given and will be located.Either that land will be comparatively worthless or worth a k om.It ie true that many s one on the spur of the moment will think it à fine bargam to get the railway built without costing the country.any money, but if as à reault it ties up the Yukon or hands over a k m of wealth to contractors, then it would be far better lor the Goverment to build the even though it did cost two or millions, and preserve the country for the people.It should not be forgotten that the contractors will own the railroad after it is built, and probably coin money in operating it as the rush to the ondike will be enormous, It would be disastrous to make any great blunder at the tet, and the overnment should count.the cost ol every step before it.However, the contra P ratification by ParWament, and It that is 80, It will doubtless prove a Batety-valve, for after the contract has rum the gauntlet of ParHament and pubMc opinion it will doubtless be either accepted or reject- upon its merits.\u201d \u2014_ The Free Press this morning publishes a long editorial on the advantages of the Stikine rallway route.It is full of [raise for the Government for the zeal t bas own .in providing that a railway should te built by September lstto a country which was practically unknown a year ago.It saya: \u201cIt is excecdingly grati- tylng intelligence thatis conveyed in our Ottawa deapatohes, Within a year after the reputation of the Klondike became known, the Canadian authorities are providing means by which tran tion into the country can 3 -

confer with Dr, Amelia Yeomans, Dominion Vice-Presi- dent, on the recent action of the Executive of the World\u2019s W.C.T.U., brought together representatives of the various Unions, and the result was a good-sized meeting.Now, this meeting started just like other meetings,\u2014the President took the chair, and everything was in order, But the atmosphere gradually grew warmer, until before its close one felt M tt had been a meeting of the sterner sex it might bave become a very stormy one, indeed.\u2018Lhere was a strong feeling of opposition in the air, and both those who were for, as well as those who were against the question that was before the meeting, were pretty strong in numbers, Now, what was the question?In a spirited address Mrs.Dr.Yeomans pointed out in a frank and unhesitating manner tbat, in view of the action of the World\u2019s Executive in re-electing Lad Henry Somerset as World\u2019s Vice-P dent, there was no alternative left for all conscientious W.C.T.U.members of the Dominjon than to rive in protest and strictly uphold the constitutimn and principles ot the organization.\u201cI sincerely love and admire Lady Henry Somerset,\u2019 said Dr.Yeomans, \u201cand to-day I am not \u2018here to criticise or blame Lady Henry Somerset as to her attitude in favor of regulating vice in the military cantonments in India, but rather as a member of the Women's Christian Temperance Unien.whose attitude must he no compromise with evil in amy form, to protest, and that vigorously, against any sach system.This is a matter in which the heart of the W.C.1.U.is deeply interested, and should receive the fullest and treest investigation possible.The right place to lay the blame and nowhere else, sald Dr.Yeomans, #3 with the World's Executive, in re-elec Lady Henry Somerset, with full knowledge ot her position on the question.The course to be pursued now is to see that the ME xecutive rescind their position and ask Lady Henry Somerset to resign.It is a known fact that Ledv Henry Somerset has resigned the presidency of | the British Woman's Temperance Association, but it may not be as clearly unaer- stood rier bes no intention what ever of g her po as president of the World\u2019s W.C.T.U.position of our Scclety must be determined, said Dr.Yeomans, not the ideas of Lady Henry Somerset.however estimable and good they may be, and without the required change be made there is no help for it but for us to sease affiliation twith, the World\u2019s.for the congratulation that no D cminion officer voted at the election of Lady Henry Som- eraet.but we have to regret that no re\u2018 solution of regret at the action taken had been subseruently passed.There \u2018a no opposition worse than passivity or inertia, and while there is no use im anger of critioism, I would mantain that we urbald nnfiinchingty the hizh standard ct the White Ribbon Armv.Some would advise to keen quiet in this matter.but wrong never richts itself.and should we not rather consider the whole matter in the clear light of day and act acoording- y.Y'atter this preliminary address the pre sident, Miss C.Richardeon, invited a tree discussion on the subject.A number of ladies responded, amcug them being Mrs.Radford.Mrs, Urs, Mre R.McLachlm.Mrs.Cole, Mss, Smith, Miss Monk, Mrs.McGarry, Miss Richardson.Mra.Dr.England.Mrs.Simms, Mrs.Macdonald, Miss Walker and others.A lengthy and most smimated discussion ensues, in which various opinions and questions were set forth.Such questions ar the following were pretty *well threshed out : Shall we have our officers repre sent the views of our Union Ÿ Apart from any action or views taken by Tadv Henry Somerset, was |t in accordance with the princirles of the W.C.T.U.to countenance a Teilized system of vice in anv shape cr form?Could there be any compromise on the watch words of the so-lety, prohibition and abolition t ete.There was an evident feeling smong those who opnosed taking action against T.ady Henry Somerset retaining her position as vice-president, that such action and opnosition must necessarily do harm to the W.C.T.U.as a whole and only cause division.But those on the other aide fearlessly declared that they ware not afraid of division, and that as individuals they felt free to give expression to- their opinions.= A resolution, moved by Dr.Yeomans, and seconded by Mrs, Macdonald, In which Lady Henry Somerset be requested of the Society, was put before the \u2014eet- ing.whereupon it wos moved by Mrs, Radford, seconded by Miss Walker, that two years or such time as

Mr.Bryan Dcakim, head of a well-known English firm of engine-mak- ers, that the experiments proved the enormous importance of cylinder wall temperature as compared with that of.the steam in studying condensation and steam engine economy.The authors had described a mass of very délicate experiments lasting two long vacations, and the account now given of them appeared to be the best and most comprehensive A yet published on this important subject.BENEFITS EXPECTED From the Mission of Mr.RE.Sheppard to South America.According to Mr.E.E.Sheppard, Trade Commissioner to South Ame: the people of that country do not Know much ab ut this country and its rare: ducts.He was in the city yesterday, and in connection with the prospeots for opening up business with South Amer} fca, said: \u2018I have every reason believe that my mission has not been in 4 vain, and that a good deal of benefit will accrue to the Domliifon from what 9 1 have done in the different South American countries.I have also reason Lo believe that thg Minister of Trade and Commerce is satisfied that I have laid the base of distinctly improved trade re- : lations between Canada and the Latin Republics to the south.\u201d CHARGE OF A CHILD.!

with the existing state of things, especially under the conditions above mentioned.Still they cannot altogether accept the present law as these conditions may be changed.Thus the law as it now exists may be provisionally accepted in so far as it gives satisfaction and.should not be totally refused simply because the conditions may change.THR ESTATE $17,081 SHORT.Port Hope, Ont, January 28.\u2014A

prohibition had always been, with us, hundreds of times greater than the element of license.Where we had author- {rex by law the one man to sell, we had rohibited 409 other men from selling.ow if we had prohibited 499 men from selling and the five hundredth not only admitted that we had the right to prohibit, but in justice to him ought to prohibit those 499 men from selling, then he would like to ask if we had not the power to prohibit, in justice to ourselves and our children, that five hundredth man i! we want to.Just in proportion as a rule, as we have appHed the prin- cipte of prohibition to that five hundredth man, as regards his hours of sae or certain prohibited days or class ol persons to whom he sells, just in that pro on had the morals of the Jeon in the vicinity gauzed and recor in our police courts gone up or down.AN APPEAL TO HISTORY.The most noted illustration of the evil effects of the diminution cf the prohibitory principle and the emlargement of M- conse was seen in the English beer maw of 1830.The use of gin had become 50 alarming in England that it became necessary, in the estimation of all citizems, that something should be done to check this evil.The object sought was to wean the people from spirit drinking by cheapening beer and elder.Any householder, on giving bonds and paying two guiness, could.ies( a license to seälf One gentle- ~.\u2018 a supporting the measure did so because he thought it would preserve the morals ot the people from contamêna- tion believed that thereby places of sale would tend to keep the, people from the public houses, and thereby promote their morals and thelr comfort.The Duke of Wellington was sure the meaaure would be attended with the most beneficial consequences to the lower orders.Lo Brougham said that the measure would be the means of reducing adulterations.Lord Somerset said the Ull] would substitute good heer for the abcminatle adult- erations.\u2018\u2018What\u2019s that ycu say my Lord, \u2018Adulterations, abominable & ulter- ations?\u2019 \u2019 Some persons will tell y 1 that abominable adulterations are the direct and natural and certain result of prohibition.and yet there are two of the most noted English statesmen of seventy years ago telling us of their anxiety to ut sn end to abominable adulterations, D à country where, if the word **prohibition\u201d was in thelr dictionary at all, ft was not thought.even by the sincerest philanthropists of that day, to have even the remotest reference to the liquor traffic.The bill became law.Astonishing te sults followed.The friends of the measure were surprised by the sudden and general demoraligation.Rev.Sydney Smith, who had expected beneficial results.wrote to a Iriend about two weeks after the law came into force.\u201cThe new beer bill has hégguh Its operations: Everybody is drunk.Those who are not reeling are sprawling.The sovercign neople are in a beastly cone dition.\u201d The demorafeation was so gdn- eral and-continaous thst both Lord Wel lington and Lord Brougham frankly edn- tessed to a change of opinion before 8 year had elapsed., BENEFITS OF PROHIBITION.In 1834, what is known in Britain ne Me act.was applied to Scotland.This set prohibits the sale of 1 nor oo 9 Baubaté | The probibltion pring s enlarged to the extent of one-aeventh of the formerly granted n- vas N 0 censes.In Glasgow and Edinburgh the number of arrests for drunkenpess lor three years just prior to the introduction of! the Sunday closing law, was 100,353; for the three years inwmediately following the arrests were in these two cities 77,- 049, the difference in the number of arrests for those vears being 23,504, When we can reduce the number of arrests in two cities in three years by 23,500, we think the morals of the people are im- gaia CE ro ry] vs REV, PRINCIPAL GRANT.proving.In thirty-one cities in Scotland the arrests for Sunday drunkenness for the year preceding the ¥orbes-McEKensie act was 11,471; for the year following the arrests were 4,209, a decrease of 1 So deeplv convinced were the Scoteh members of Purli t that this law tended to improve the moral condition of the people, that when a similar bill was pro- osed for Ireland, forty-three out .of the orty-etght Sgotch membere voted for it.Bess brook, a manufacturing town in Ireland, has no police, no peu , NO wnshops, and as an explanation of alt fois, no public house.More than 8, hands are employed, yet the best of order and good-fellowship prevails.Vineland, New Jersey, gave a wonder- fui illustration of the benefits of probi- bition.The town from the beginning has stood on the ciple of prohibition.It has now nearly 20,000 inhabitants.\u201cI hove been many times in the place - and can testify to the benefits cf the prohibitory principle in the absence of unken- ness, pauperism and crime.®very year the people are permitted to express ir wish respecting the continuance of the restrictive measure.Out of a voting population of 3,000 only seven persons could he found favorable to a return to li- license.\u2019 CANADA'S OBJECT LESSONS.| Pass from the Atlantic to the Pacific across our Dominion and the guantity of liquor cccsumred per hiesd tallied exactly with the extent of the application of the principlz of prohibitien In the several provinces, P.E.Island consuming the least and British Cchumble the most, the latter, where there is no prohibition, consuming nearly twelve times as much ns suming nearly twelve times as much as the former whera the Scott Act is in force.Take the County of Halton; no county could be worse lor drunkenness and immorality, altogether occasigned by drink.Three men have been hanged in that county, and drink took them all to the gallows, The third year atter the adoption cf the Scott Act, arrests tor drinking in Halton compared with other counties near by were as follows: Wentworth, 664, or one in ninety-eight; Wellington, $835, pram fn 319; Halton, three, or one in There was no possib'e way of accounting for this amaging diflerence, except through the presence in that county of the prohibitory measure, In a letter re ecived from the Police Magistrate, a few days ago, he says: \u201cThe Sherif! Informed me that nt the thirteen nssize courts held in Halton during the Scott Act regime, the judges were \u2018 presented with white gloves on every accoslon, a thin said to be unparalleled in the histery a any other countv in Ontario.\u201d Mr.Luoas spoke forty-five minutes and then retired emid spplause.PRINCIPAL GRANT Asserts That Prohibition Could Not be Enforced.Principal Grant received an ovation.In opening his remarks, he sald he accepted the challenge to debate because he knew he was t.lt was most unfair for newspapers to throw sneers at him, and to refuse to print his views in full so that air readers could understand his exapt position.- Said the Principal: \u201cIt is because 1 lock with horror on the sin of Intemper.th \u2018a ance, and have fought against it some success all/ my life that I dre i) coposal, which, if enacted into law, will o more to throw back the cause cf tem- ;
