Did you think all this, my dear sister?If Jou did, it would not be surprising, for indeed I thought it, or, at least, half thought it myself, It ly did seen: for a little while as if Rupert Granton, the ne'er-do-well, had positively made up his mind to settle down and become a respectable member of a respectable community.But the end was not yet, you see.Here I am in dear old Stamboul, pausing on the edge of the great world of adventure.T always think that the long bridge across the Golden Horn is, as it were, the gateway to wonderland.I have crossed it often before; soon I shall cross it again, shall make my.Plunge into outer darkness and turn up Heaven knows where; perhaps at Thibet amo the Buddhists, perhaps in China-ahall fetch you a hair of th: Cham's t\u2014perhaps at Ispahan.Ido not know and I do not care.To a citizen of the world like myself, inured by long experience, one place is as much home as another\u2014as much home, at least, as I shall ever know.Please don't think that I am going to be sentimental, or sigh because a rolling stonedoesn\u2019t gather moss.I haven't the slightest desire to gather moss and should not know what to do with it if I did gather it, No, my Bohemian blood is throbbing in my pulses, and its pulsation told\u2018'me that X must be up and doing.That vague indefinable, unconquerable feeling which the gipsy, which the Arab, which every wanderer knows so well, was upon me and it had to be obeyed.It is no use to struggle against it I know but little and care less for our of à family into Ww to your wonder if any of the ancestral Grantons ever wedded a gipy woman, or if, by chance, some Crusading orefather ploked upa - cenic bride.If either of these events Pagrant blood In me.the vagrant blood th vagran n me, the vagran at needs will keep my body drifting idly over the world.| Have you started a new fencing-master ru If so, 1 trusthe will prove mpre satisfac ory than bis predecessor.Iknow thkt You when Bostock's body waa fished up out of the Thames at Gravesend.If he did commit suicide it was no sighing matter; the world was better off without him; certainly some folk who were déar to you and me may the more for his absence from the game.I happen to have learned some- hing about the man, and I may as well tell you n confidence that he was the secret enemy who was striking at Gerald's life, More than this I do not care to say, and ore than this therefore I am sure you, my dear, will not want to ask.The fellow was a great scoundrel, I ¢ the conditions which helped to make him such a sooundrel; cannot honestly aay that I feel any regret Well, there are queer people in the world, and your friend Bostoëk was one of the q I bave met à lot of strange chape n my time and meet a few more, I to beat him.,buti Happily I have never learned oynicism from wanderin m running away.Yes, yes, I must have &ipey blood in me which will not let me stay in peace in my own land and with my own e Pont cy that I did not relish tile recent tasteof civilization and respec! ty, Ih sitting at men\u2019s tables and h bells I urch.Indeed, indeed, to! t n ind :I it h Tahedites et that, as 2s moment, a t say, there was 3 momen 3 hallucination, in that pleasant episode that the an abl tramp hhd turned ae e hallucination endure, I think that woman's married life a happy one.that Fidelia's life may be a happy one is the dearest prayer that my battered heart can utter.[think you were alittle surprised that I waited to see them married.Why not\u2014why not! They are both dear to me, and 1 hel them both alittle, and 1 like to see a thing through.But after it was over I did not care to stay much longer in the old country, and that is why, when you thought I was'off to Brighton for rest and sea breezes, I was Specding across Europe in the Orient Express.Remember me to all friends.Raven and his wife I may possibly meet somewhere, for 1 hear that they are going off on a tremendous travel together all round the world and all over it.Pretty little Lydia ought to enjoy that, for she has something of the roving spirit of her excellent uncle, and Raven makes a capital companion, especially to the woman who happens to be in love with him, I should think that fortune and felicity would improve Raven.I always knew him to bea fellow at heart, and if he was wild he came of a wild stock.It would hardly be quite decent for me, would it, to reproach him at all on that scoret For a Granton to preach at any one would scarcely afford edification.; As | write, the sun is shining on the Bosphorus, and when I look up from my I can see the flags of many nations Rutterin in the breere.The sight of them sets my fancy fluttering too; and Ifeel that I must be off in a day or Grey sea or by land.Ihave half a mind to join Borringer at Marseilles, wheyehe is busy apising an expedition to the th Pole.batever I door wherever I 1 hope there will always be a kind thought in your dear heart for your very unsatisfactory, incorrigible, but very devoted brother.RUPERT GRANTON.[THE END.] CLEVER IMITATIONS OF NATURE.Different Modes of Counterfeiting Wind.Rain, Snow, Thunder and Lightning on the Stage.In deference to the prevailing craze for realism on the \u201cboards,\u201d the st carpenter has turned his attention tu the imitation of storm effects, and his efforts have been rewarded with a great measure of success.So far as the \u2018counterfeit presentment\u201d of wind and rain is concerned! the theatri profession has been extremely conservative each generation of property men em loying the apparatus of its pi r with su ciently good results to obriate the necessity of any vital alteration.The tradi tional method for simulating the howl- i of the wind fs as follows: A ri cylinder, covered wi ooarse Sad againstit ie fixed a SIC shield.porting itis a silk shield, on its surface as a brake block does on & wheel, bat with hardly so great a pressure, When the cvlinder revolves, the friction between the silk and canvas prod 1 And ceeded in turn by poydered maguesium, the hrilliant white ight of which metal is familiar to everyone.Magnesium is largely used at the resent time, but in same of the larger theatres, having canveniences for obtaining it, à flash of light from an electric arc lamp is employed.and this, of course, is the nearest approach to the genuine article that can got.To produce common sheet lightning the flash is let off in the wings, but when fork lightning is required, a traus- parency is made in the back cloth in the shape of n forked flash, and the light is shown behind the cloth.Care is taken that when anything solid, such as THB TRUNK OF A TREE, stands in the path of the streak, the transparency is closed at the spot so as to cause the flash to appear to take place behind the aforesaid tree or other opaque obstacle There are sometimes two or three such transparencies in the cloth, which can be opened or closed at will, and by using them one after the other sameness of shape and position in the flash is to a great extent avoided.A further touch of nature consists of lgtting off a flash at the wing simultaneously with the flash at the back of the cloth, thus giving the effect of the zigzag th of lightning accompanied with its azxling glare.An anecdote of ald \u201cstock days\u201d runs as follows: A company stranded in a provincial town without money or credit, dined off the elements by eating rain cooked on thunder by means of lightning.The explanation Is this: The in the rainbox were cooked over a fire ted and kept burning with the stock of resin on the iron thundersheet.Nowadays it would be rather difficult to cook peas on a cannonball by, means of an electric flash.\u2014 London - Bits.IT COVERS A GOOD DEAL OF GROUND \u2014Dr.Pierce's Golden And when you that it cures so many think \u201ci to good put TS only ree it Asa bte cleanser, flesh-builder, restores, like the ** Die» covery\u201d is known to science.The diseases that it cures come a torpid liver or from impure blood.For overytbing of this t is the only guarant remedy.Dyspepsia Bidoumes: all Broachia), Throat an affections: om orm of Ecrofula, even on Lu ula) in its earlier Pond a tbe most stubborn Skin and p Diseases \u2014if it ever fails to benefit or cure, you have your money back.The worse your Catarrh, the more need Dr.Bag Catarrh Remedy.Fa roprietors offer $500 cash for a case of atarzh in the Head which they cannot cure, a whistling sound which increases or diminishes as the e Is turned quickly or A capital resemblance to THE PATTERING SOUND made by rain is obtained in the following mannef.A quantity of dried peas is inserted into a box, considerably longer than t is broad, the bottom of which is studded .thwooden , and : arrangement is suspen: n e Pp entrance means of a ro attached to it at a little distance from the middle, 20 that it hangs well out of the horizontal position, the peas, of course, collecting in the lower extremity.A cord is fastened to the elevated end, and when this is pulled the peas ran down from the opposite side, striking inst the in their passage.On releas the the box resumes its original position, and the run back again.The volume of sound slowly.modern impi on which, however, embodies no new prinel- ple.This consists of inclosing the dried in a barrel, which is spiked inside in © same way as the other contrivance.\u2018The barrel is fitted with axle and h and mounted on a stand, and when it volves the peas fall over the spikes IN A CONTINUOUS TORRent] -.thus doing away with the break in the sound by reversing the ends of the old \u2018\u2019rain-box\u201d On one Or two ooceasions en: bave built tanks in the flies th f and le TRADE Father Mollinger's Qraate\u2014\u2014 Remedies CONQUER DISEASE.Cured theumands In Lifetime.4 agit andl A.vies : A igestion River Complain Lo Le a are (he sopaite prescriptions BIRO) 20 piesd constipation and purify\u2019 ag the blood one Tithout my nams on LA a LUMAR BROX & Con .te, Montreal and Toronte.BLOOD POISON.fed Ro LIY LE TEE jaime prise And tho 0e unten tres!

THE MONTREAL DAILY STAR, - SATURDAY AUGUST 5, 1898.700 MARY MEN EMPLOYED On the Wellington Bridge.SO SAYS MR.KENNEDY, THE SUPERINTENDENT.Some Interesting Evidence is Adduced.Senator Drummond was examined ves- terday afternoon by the Canal Commission, He stated that though the work had been carried on under climatic disadvantages it had heen well done as far as he could judge.He came to the conclusion that the admin istration of the canal had so rigorous and so efficient as it had been under Mr, Kennedy.He knew of no political influence in connec tion with this work.Had never recom: mended any contractor.He knew of no political advantage.He had recommended Mr.Kennedy as superintendent, but he knew nothing about his nppointiment us supervisor of this work.If the water had never been heen let out in December 600 or 500 men out vf would be thrown employment LACHINE CANAL Esquiry- Mr.R.Dove.LAss, C.E., of the Lachine Canal Commission.in the Canada Sugar Refinery.Several thousand would have been thrown eat of employment elsewhere on the canal, There would have been a rebellion in the Point if the bridge had not heen obtained by May, and then another rebellion would have followed in the city.The Government could not act.otherwise than it did.In many eases it would pay to employ a con tractor, and .pay him a percentage to find labor.\u201d From his special knowledge of Mr.Ed.Kennedy he would have chosen him had he had to do the work on this bridge.If the work had been done in December it would have cost 35 per cent.more than in March and April.Mr.Douglass\u2014\u2018Do vou consider that the Lachine canal was built for the manufae- turersf\u201d Senator Drummorid- -\u201cNo, but when the Government draws revenue fromthem they should

the Commission.\u201d \u201cThere were certain statements which T could not allow to pass, anil 1 have denied them.\u201d KENNEDY AGAIN ON THE STAND.Mr.Ed.Kennedy resumed giving evidence.He understood railway and bridge dans.He had always considered Mr.Parent to be his superior officer.As Superintendent of the canal he under stood that he had nothing to do with the canal.He had enough to do elsewhere without looking after the G.T.R.bridge.A contractor could have done four times the work which was done if he only had known what was expected of him.The difficulty was that the work was rushed through.Witness never estimated anything in that work.Cut stone cost about 89 per yard.He thought that TOO MANY MEN WERE EMPLOYED in the work, and had he been the contractor he would not have employed so many.Had the work been done in the summer three men could have done the work of five.The coffer.dams were judiciously built.When the bridge was decided upon, dredging was first made to 18 feet and then ta 90 feet and 22 feet.Had there been no dredging there would have been no coffer LACHINE CANAL Exquiry.\u2014Mr.McLEOn, Member of the Lachine Canal Commission.dam.Ha discharged many men every day so ar to secure good men.More men were employed in every branch than was nevessary.The reason for this was that there was no head.Practically speaking, there was nobody in charge of the G.T.R.work.Mr.Parent and Mr.Papineau were engineers, and they had work in the office.Mr.St.Louis was \u2018interested in having all the men there possible.Mr, St.Louis thought that he had a good thing, and he did the most of it.Mr.Coghlan was chief timekeeper for the Government, and he counted the men before witness certified to St.Jouis\u2019 list.He could not have had a better class of men than St.Louis supplied.Witness was opposed to contract labor and never recommended it.There was not sufficient time to make the necessary arrangements.Had the work been done in December, January and February it would have cost fifty per cont.moro than it did, The first deliveries of cut stone were made on January 4, and tho last stones were cut in the first days of April.The works were delayed for want of stone, The work was ready for the superstructure on April 3 Lamps were used on the canal.They were bought because the renting of them wonld have cost more.There was no delay caused in the supplies of Inmber.Stone was well supplied for the G.T.R.Bridge hy St.Louis.To the beat of his knowledge, all the lam.ber ordered from Henderson was delivered on the canal.He felt certain that Hendor- son\u2019s Account was correct.When the tenders were called for there were only about threo men who could supply the lumber ge- wired.They often had to induce the ay men to work halt the night to get a night gang at work.itness never opened any of the tenders.They could have had all\u2019 the men they wanted in March and April.There were differences of opinion all along as to the classification of the men.Most of the men engaged on the Wellington Bridge were inexpérienced.\u2018The wor could have been done quicker by a trained staff accustomed to work under a cone tractor.Witness took the labor as he wanted it, engaging the men himself.In April, Mr.Schreiber called upon him and told him to go to the G.T.R.bridge and dismiss all men that were unnecessary.Witness ncecepted no responsibility for the GT.RL bridge.Forty masons could not work on 72x A) feet of masonry.He counted as many as ninety stone cutters on the Curran bridge at one time.Witness ordered St.Louis and Villeneuve verball to stop cutting stone for lock No.l on March: 15th.Next day Mr, Parent and Mr.St.Louis came along and said that the Jocks would be enlarged next year and that SI.Louis should be allowed to go on with stone cutting.The Commission then adjourned until this morning.BIG MEN BANKRUPT And Thetr Creditors Do Not Know How Much They Can Pay on Their Liabilities.New York.August Ho Tribune special from Chicago says: John 5.Cudaby was down town yesterday for the first time since his collapse.He was much broken in appearance.He said that it would be at least a week before he could tell how much he owed or what he could pay.Fairbanks was also around for the first time since the failure.It is said that the amount which creditors will get will depend much on the ability of Fair- bank to pay what he owes to Cudahy.1t ix estimated here that the two men have about 22,000,000 of unsecured debts, It is supposed that their nominal assets amount to $1L.000,000, largely in real estate, but this ust now is unsalable.It is thought that Vright owes about $700,000, and that he hiss practically nothing left, O1 the seven concerns which failed here, only one as vet has done anything toward settling with its creditors.Wright and Hanghey this afternoon offered to their creditors secured notes at one year, and promised to pay sooner if they could colleet from the principals in the big lard deal.The claim of this concern against Cudahy & Fairbanks is about S100,000, It iy said that there are losses by firms which did not suspend, of over 100, O00 in at least half à dozen cases.Iu is figured that the Board of Trade has suffered by this deal to the extent of about $2,000, D The greatest uncertainty prevails as « what sort of dividend the big debtors will be able to pay.Some think it may be 100 cents and some less than HU cents on the dollar.A FORECAST OF THE MESSAGE.The Subjects the President May Touch Upon at the Opening of Congress.WAsHINGTUN, August 5.\u2014 While nothing 4s Enown in rezard to the contents of the President\u2019 message, it is believed it will be confined exclusively toa consideration of the financial situation.Beyond advocating the repeal of the Sherman act it is not expected that it will deal with specitic suggestions for legislation.unless, As some seem to apprehend, it will endorse the state hank plank in the Democratic platform of IX.At the time fhat platform was adopted it was well known that Mr.Cleveland had grave doubts of the wisdom of the recom- ntendation to repeal the tax on the issue of | state banks, and it will be remembered that in his letter of acceptance he practi cally ignored that portion of the plat form.But it is said that subsequent study uf the financial problem has led him to take a kindlier view of that recommendation and, if not wholly convinced of the feasibility of enacting it into law, he is at least inclined to think that it SSESSES substantial merit.Taken altogether, it is believed that the message will Be historical rather than recommendatory, that the President will point out to Congress the pernicious effects of the past silver legislation, and leave to that body the responsibility.of discovering the true remedy for the ills of our currency system.THEY SAIL TO DEATH.Particulars of the Sinking of the * Rachel\u201d on Lake George.LAKE GEorGE, N.Y., August 4.\u2014The terrible accident here, when last night the steam yacht \u201cRachel\u201d sunk and drowned nine of her passengers, occurred within speaking distance of land.There were twenty nine excursionists on board and they were laughing and singing at the time of the accident.The night was very dark, requiring an experienced ilot, which there was not on board.' Just south of the One Hundred Island House, the \u2018\u2018Rachel* struck a hidden rock and sank in a few seconds.Before the passengers had time to realize that there was an accident they were in the water.Some of the passengers were caught under the shade deck and died quickly.Nine were drowned.The names of the drowned are: Miss Hattie L.Hall, Brooklyn; Miss Edith Harding, Hoboken, N.J.; Miss Bertba Benedict, Miss Henriette M.Barton, Jersey City; Mrs.J, H.Mitchell, Burlington, Vt.; Frank C.Mitchell, 19 year old son of Mrs, Mitchell, Miss Lizzie Corley, Miss Clara Black, Burlington, Vt.; Miss Lizzie Clarke, Bridgeport, Conn.Frank Mitchell, 19 years, of New York City, fost his life trying to save his mother, who was also drowned.THE KING OF SIAM.A series of startling political developments in the relations of France and Siam have brought the latter little-known country into the foreground of public interest.No monarch is at the present moment more embarrassed than the Sovereign of the Land of the White Elephant, The present, King of Siam, Chulalongkorn I.comes of a stock of sovereigns who have been among the most remarkable characters of the East by their attainments in languages and general information, by their ready adoption of foreignidcas and improvements,of wise and humane government and of liberal and enlightened intercourse with foreigners and foreign powers.He is the cldest son of the late King Maha Mongkut and of Queen Ramboi Bhomrabhiromya, herself a daughter of a former monarch of Siam.The royal dignity in Siam is nominally hereditary,but does not always descend from the father to the eldest son, each sovereign being invested with the privilege of nominating his successor.King Maha Mongkut, however, reintroduced the practice of nominating the eldest son,and accordingly,on his death In 18653, was succeeded by the present Sovereign.Chulalongkorn was born on September 21,1853,and is consequently now in his fortieth year.During his minority a Regent carried on the government, but in November, 1873, when he became of age, he assumed the reins of power.In 1862 the king was married to the Princess Savangsndana, by whom he has now four children, two sons nnd two dangh- ters.In pursuance of the example set by his father, King Chulalongkorn has nomina hir eldest son, Somdetch Chow- fa Maha Vajirunhis, Crown Prince.This Prince is how fifteen years old.Under ita present Sovereign Siam has made very substantial progress.According to trad].the King is absolute master of om \u2018\u2018sacred lord of heads,\u201d ** possessor of all.\u201d Soon after his accession to wer, however, Chulalongkorn introduced of his own initiative a kind of Constitutional Government.He Issued a decree 'announcing that in future he would only enact Im nt laws after consulting the Council of State and the Ministry.He has also shown the most Intelligent solicitude for the intellectual and material progress of his country, promoting railways and telegraphs, and giving his countenance to all schemes for introducing Western methods into bis country.In Bangkok may now be seen\u2019 team mills, tramways, and electric Hghts.angkok is the residence of the King, who inhabits a remarkable palace surronnd- ed by high walls nearly a mile in cireum- ference.The Royal residence includes teniptés, public offices, accommodation for some thousnnda .of soldiers, à theatre, and rooms for about 3000 females, 000 of whom are wives of the King.The interior in decorated with an enormous number of costly -articlea in gold, silver, and precious stones.The King's privete a) teard farnish- ed in European atvie and lighted with gas, THE TENDERS FOR GAS AGAIN REFERRED TO MR.BADGER FOR REPORT.Mr.Contes Makes an Amendment to His Tender\u2014Rate- Payers Might Share In the Profits.Important Ald.Rainville presided at a meeting of the Light Committee yesterday, and there were also present Ald.Nolan, Prefontaine, Villeneuve, Marsolnis and Costigan; also Ald.Leclere, Bumbray, Farrell and Cleu- dinneng.It was decided to ask for a supplometary appropriation of ZW for new street lamps, 85H00 being due on the lamps placed on the Champ de Mars.Mr.Badger presented the following report upon the application of the St.Jean to customers on all used where a range is used in connection with gas lighting.\u201d If you kindly have this clause added when the tenders are opencd I I be glad.1 shall boat iny office in Mentreal on Friday, it tho committee desire to see ine oh any point, and Tay add that with a 2 Jour contract no further competition boyoud the presevt, T should be willing to consider an arrangement by which the council and vatopu yors might sharo any surplus profits over aud above 10 per cent.dividend to tho sharcholders.The letter is dated July 13, while the time for receiving tenders expired on July 1% but Mr.Budger received it on the lth, four days before the tenders were opened.Mr.Badger explained that he did not receive any notice of the meeting on the 18th until the day following and could not therefore submit the letter then, It should also be mentioned that the advertisement asking for tenders sald nothing about gas for heating and cvoking.Mr.Badger said he had taken the letter into account in preparing the synopsis.Mr.Badger then preségted his synopsis of the different tenders which was as follows, the Gus Company it will be remembered tendering for a 25 candle power light: BYNOI'SIS OF TENDERS FUR GAS SUPPLY.Price for Is Candles.Light.Heat.St.Lamps.$1.00 80 $15.00 1.00 14.50 85 H.S.King.J.Coates & Ca ., \u201c Sin, -The G.O.M.Premier of the British Par- lHawmeat, charged the Ki.Hon.Joseph Chamber- Iain with being \u201cThe Devil's Advocate.\u201d 1 havo asked many well read geatlemen the meaning of this expression and have failed to get an explanation.Therefore, dear sir, | will ask you to give us Nght, as I am sure it will be acceptable to the readers of Notes and Queries in the Stan.11.Further, can you surmise what comparison the Rt.Hon.Joseph Chamberlain was going to make when the Irish patriots interrupted him, calling him \u201cJudas !\u201d Montreal.T.FI.The Devil's Advocate is one who is employed to bring forward malicious accusations.When the name of any one is pro- )osed for canonization in the Roman \u201catholic Church two advocates are ap pointed, one to oppose the motion and one todefend it.The former, popularly called Acdvocatus Diaboli the DeviFs Advocate, advances against the candidate for saint.ship the slightest instance that he can discover of any misconduct, criminality, demoralization or sin on his part, while the latter, called Advocatus Dei (God's .Advocate) enumerates at length with all the proofs possible the list of his virtues and good deeds.11.The raler to whom Mr.Chamberlain compared the Premier is called \u201cHerod the King,\u201d in Acts xii, I, He was Herod Agrippa I, and grandson of Herod the Great.Unlike his predecessors, he was a strict observer of the law, and sought with success the favor of the Jews, It is probable that it was with this view he put to death James the son of Zebedee, and further imprisoned Peter.But his sudden death interrupted his ambitious projects.In the fourth year of his reign over the whole of Judwa (A.D.400 Agrippa attended some games at Ciesarea, held in honor of the Emperor.When he appeared in the theatre his flattérery saluted him as a god ; and suddenly he was seized with terrible pains, and having been carried from the theatre to the palace, died after five days' agony.The account given in Acts xii., 21-93, is as followr: ** And upon a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat upon bis throne, and.made.an oration to them.And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the voice of a ,and not of a man.And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, ause he ve not God the glory : and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost.\u201d It will probably never known what Mr.Chamberlain was going to say.We may form a shrewd conjecture from the facts here related about Herod.\u201cIn the Midst of Life we are in Death.\u201d \u201cSletta\u201d (Montreal) writes toknow where in the Bible the foregoing text may be found.The same sense is, no doubt, frequently expressed in the Bible, but the actual form of the words is not to be found in any of its books.Turning, however, to The er for the Burial of the Dead\u201d in \u2018The Book of Common Prayer according tothe Use of the Church of England,\u201d we find the exact words near the end of the service \u201cWhen they come to the Grave, while the Corpse is made ready to be laid into the Earth.\u201d \u201cThe Priest shall say, or the Priests and Clerks shall sing: Man that is bomofa woman hath but a short time to live and is full of misery.He cometh up and is cut down, like a flower;

How Prices Were Forced Down.Here is another opinion on whea: by a ber of the Corn Exchange: \u201cThe prico - wheat as of other comnodities isasa rule erned by the law of supply and demand.y4he world's requirements are pretty well known; the element of uncertalnty is ac- ourate knowledge as to the production of any given y Generally the trade bo forms an opinion as to the.year's crop, and rices are governed by that opinics.The nfluences which have led to present abnormally low prices are, first, the persistent effort of Chicago operators during the past winter to keep the price of wheat in that a pete 7 ; 2 market above its relative value as compared Ë with other markets, This attracted larg = supplies to Chicago, and enormous stocks 5 accumulated there, which proved a dead i weight on the trade throughous the in world.The commercial depression which i ensued accentuated this and forced down prices far below any previous record.Eura- wi Be DA pean buyers are anxious to take American wheat at present prices, but the financial distress is so great that shipments are almost impossible.Theimmediate tion therefore is this: On the one side ensg accumulations in Chicago anc other American markets; on the other.eager buyers who, from financial disorganisation, cannot get their orders filled, As soon As finances assume a normal position, these orders will he filled and a healthier market at higher prices will be the result.OPPOSITION IN GAS SUPPLY.Mr.Contes Explains the Terms of His Tender.Mr.John Coates, one of the tenderers for the gas supply of Montreal, was interviewed .8 STAR reporter at the Windsor Hotel this morning, In reference to certain terms taf his tender which are now under debato > re the Light Committee.In this inter | Contes gave a clear explanation of cause which led to the writing of that as an additional clause of his tender.\u201cAs I read the advertisement calling for * Lever said Mr.Coates, \u201cI understood it ing for terms for lighting purposes thgly.But mailin, and I tendered accord I a few hours after my it occurred to me that it might be advisable to state\u2019 the advantages ] can Yo tO consumers using gas for fuel.I ore wrote n second letter whichshould ve been read to the Committee \u201d\" WHEN THE TENDERS WERE OPENED, Ihave since written to the City Clerk complaining of this and asking if the letter had #04 been received on the 13th inst.\u2018Matter [s now satisfactorily explained;
