Bill Dealing With = > This Matter.RESEMBLES THE OLD BILL Ope Exception is Absence of the Feature of Compulsory * Arbitration.\u201ci | @pecial Staff Correspondence.Ottawa, May 7.\u2014In the House of Commons yeeterday, Sir William Mulock stated that up to July lst, 1902, there had been 193 persons refused admission to Ca- mada for being paupers or diseased or for other legal cause.From that time until April 1st, 1903, the number was 147.All of thpse persons were deported at the expense of the steamship companics which brought them over.Mr.Hackett was informed that members of the geological survey staff hal made an examination in the province of Prince Edward Island.during the pat year.with a view to the discovery of om).They found no surfue indications of coal, but believe that it might \u201cbe ph by boring.\u201d The report also indi- where boring may be done with the t prospects of favourable results.: LABOUR DISPUTES.Sir William Mulock moved the second reading of a bill to aid in the settlement of railway labour disputes.This ie the same measure as was introduced by him last year, with the exception that the feature of compulsory arbitration has been eliminated.As it now stands it provides for the appointment of boards of conciliation, and where conciliation fails, provision is made for compulsory investigation and report on the matter in dispute, the object being to thus bring the force of public opinion to bear.Sir Willi also threw out a hint that the v ent might, in the not distant fu- , endeavour to bring about a conference of manufacturers and workingmen, with the object to framing a bill extend- the same principle to as many indus- tres as possible.Mr.R.L.Borden could not see, after having heard Sir William Mulock\u2019s explanation, that the bill w@uld bring forth any good results.He pointed out that since the institution of the Department of Labour there had heen more strikes than ever.It seemed to have heen growing time in that direction as well as in others.If there were any value in the bill, why were not its provisions extended to other branches of labour?Why d it not be applied to the strike in ontreal as well as to railway matters\u2019 After all what did the bil provide for that could not be done already.They eould now provide arbitration.We could get a bo of conciliation under the existing law as well as under the proposed dct.Sir William seemed very doubtful if this bill would do anything that the old act would mot.What would be the advantage of the bill?Sir William admits that after the arbitration either party or both might refuse to he bound.If all that could be done was to gain information that could be done by Royal Commission, as in British Columbia at the present time.Would it not he better for+ 8ir William to turn his attention to find- iag more practical ways bv which a tribunal could be obtained that hoth sides would be bound to recognize\u2019 He thought this measure would be as useful as the) GMe Conciliation act.In these matters they must be guided by pubke opinion.They might be justified in making an experiment, but he, for one, would not expect any great results, and he thought the bill might probably stand in the way of obtaining those desired results by other means.Mr.Puttee looked on the bill as - tically an extension of the C\u2019onciliation Act, and eo innocuous.The Conciliation Bil had closed up some dwputes, not more than he sxperted, and comparatively very few indeed.The larger railway organizations had agreed to the bill, and the reason they agreed tn it was that it would not affect them at all.With these organizations the question of recognition had been done away with.They were strong and they were recognized as a matter of course.To settle a strike without remg- nition of the union was to lose the strike æ far as the men were concerned, because it left them without any means on their side of seeing that the terms were car ried out.Nevertheless, only about per cent.of railway emploves belonged to the lasger organizations.The other four-fifths belonged to bodies till struggling for -Tecognition.- SUGGESTED A CLAUSE.ated that his nt might be incorporsti & cause f th bill introduced by \"imac If.The clause \u201cIn no case shall à conciliator or arbitrator stipulate, nor shall it be stipulated fn any agreement promoted or recommended by & conciliatar or arbitrator, that anv employe shail relinquish his membership in any local; national or international trades union or labour association: nor aball an agreement subject any employe Bim penalty on account of mich member- = After a nomewhat lengthy discussion, the escond reading was agreed to.When the House went into committee to consider the details of the measure, it was pointed out that gn case of a dispute on the In- tercolonif] Railway one member of the Concilistion Committee would be named the men and one by'the Minister of ays.while the third would be named the Minister of Labour, thus giving the two.against one.Tt was conceded that this ould not be a fair arrangement, urther consideration waa laid over to allow this difficulty to be straightened out.BILLS ADVANCED.The

disappearance has created quite a sensation in Boston and the surrounding district on account of his prominence In sockÿ and society circles, passed through this city it appears a very few days ago.He left his home last week but no reason for his doing so could be found.nejther could any trace as to what had become of.him or where he had intended going.The police of Boston with their many affiliations and correspondents was set ke but no clue was found of the ssing man.Fi ly news came from Lewiston, Maine, tn the effect that the police thought he was there.However, enquiry at Lewiston only brought out the fact that a man whose description tallled with that of Herrick went to Danville Junction and ordered supper thare.He did not eat the supper.however, and purchased a ticket on the Grand Trunk for Montreal.Mr, Herrick's friends could not think why he should mave gone to Montreal, if the person referred to was he, but Mrs.Herrick remembered that in former years her husband had lived in Oregon, and had often expressed a desire to go back there aguin.As his actions previous to his that he was acting under great nervous excitement, it was thought that the idea of travelling to the Coast again might have entered his head and be the cause of his disappearance.The Boston police were notified and they in turn notified their correspondents, but in the meen- Mr.Ferguson, a.ygung

Berlin, May 7.\u2014 Herr Moeller's speech warning Germany that industrial come bination after the pattern of the United Btates Steel Corporation, is the Father land\u2019s only salvation, is

CHAPTER XXII.\u2014(Continued.) But aiter the middle of the aiternoon it became quite impossible to retain the dominie\u2019s wandering attention.So Adora was in the habit of sending him to the \u201cben\u201d or parlour room of the school house, there installing him on the sofa with a checked plaid over his feet, and so returning to her classes.When at last she came in fagged with the long, dull wrestle of the school, the close atmosphere and that steady grit of discipline which in the Jong run is more wearing than any kind of labour in the world, she would find him with Sandy Ewan, a little flushed but calmly talking\u2014and munching peppermint balls.Ah.\" she thought.as sbe went out, \u201cthat 1s one more proof how changed my father is.He takes up again the habits oi a child\u201d L © And for \u2018the fist time Adora Gracie felt the need of some one to speak to\u2014no, not Aline\u2014some one, she did not know who\u2014some \u2018one better and stronger than herself.For with a father little better than a babe, the gird of the school Louse was indeed alone in the world.Her lovers\u201d Marriage?Yes, of course, Adora thought of such things.But somehow thay was not what she wanted at present.One steadfast, plain-sailing friend who would not begin to talk about her eves 80 soon as they were left alone to- gether\u2014was there any such on earth?She had not found him, at all events.Even Strong Mac left much to be desired\u2014 though certainly latterly\u2014and here she smiled.Then she wondered what had come over the boy.And then all sudden- Iv ker heart smote her, that she had even for a moment forgotten the thing which had befallen him.As for Sandy Ewan, Adora was more than ever convinced that he had been, partially at least, misjudged.With herself he never presumed upon his favour with her father.The utmost deference, the most perfect consideration, characterized his relations with the schoolhouse.He brought the latest and most hopeful news of Roy.together with little presents of books and recent magazines for her father-once, at least.the latest number of the Edinburgh Review\u2014but never anything for Adora.All these Yhings assured the girl that Muckle Sandy Ewan was none so black as he had been painted.Ro passed the davs till that one which preceled the Preshyterial examination.In the afternoon Adora, restless under the long strain of preparing the unruly boys and careless girls of Lowran to meet the coming ordeal, took advantage of the Jengthening days to walk out along the lanes-to Aline McQuhirT's cottage.She was the more inclined to this that Mr.latimer had sent Jonathan Grier to sav that he would call and see her father that evening, if it were convenient.Adora ihad no present desire to meet the young Laird of Towran.But she recognized that he was

that it should be continuously sorry for long together.That is reserved for the old.Then without a warning, without a moment to bethink herself, Adora found herself face to face with Sandy Ewan.He saluted her courteously, as he stepped out of the thicket by the wayside.There was 8 brightness about his eyes that lighted up his heavy face.But the underlip protruded more than ever with the obstinacy of a balking horse, and his eyes had a hardness in them which would have put R more suspicious person than Adora Gracie upon her guard.He held out his band.Adora gave him here, mechanically.She had not yet recovered from the suddenness of his appearance.He held it longer than he had ever ventured to do before.and Adora, wait- jag for an explanation of his presence, for a moment forgot to reclaim it.For which omission she afterward blamed herself.Sandy Ewan turned to walk back with her toward the village.\u201cI called at the schoolhouse on my way,\u201d he began, hurriedly, for Adora had drawn away her hand, \u201cbut I found that \u2014 that insolent hound Latimer there, who would scarcely look at me.So to keep from breaking his neck and because your father

hound.He is a gentleman, both in deed\u2014 and in word!\u201d Adora felt the stiffness of this speech, but she thught the feathered arrow at the end might hit its mark.However, she did not know Sandy Ewan.He was far too much wrapt in his own self-conceit to feel the girl's irony.He only laughed a little in a self-satistied vay.\u201cAh,\u201d he said, \u201cthen you have changed your mind about him also!\u201d ' \u201cI am far from understanding what vou mean!\u201d said Adora.#The folk are saying in the parish that once upon a time you forbade him your father's house!\" \u201cIl did

Adora, sharpley.For in 1812 it was permitted to young persons to know mare than they are supposed to be familiar with in these later decades.Sandy Ewan and his deeds were not of an odor fragrant in the nostrils of his country-women.He did not come into Alme\u2019s door, and it was only Adora\u2019s consideration for her father, together with her own careless confidence and self-re- liance, that permitted him the entry of the schoolhouse.\u201cAh,\u201d said Muckle Sandy, mournfully.\u201cl am not the only innocent person who has been maligned.Evil tongues are many.And so far a= vou are concerned, Mistress Adora, I cannot call to mind that I have acted or spoken otherwise than as every mah has a right to do who trully loves a woman!\u201d A little thrill of compunction came over the girl.It was true\u2014she knew it by ex- rience\u2014there were many evil speakers.erhaps she had believed too hastily.She reached out her hand.\u201cI am sorry!\u201d she said.~ Randv Ewan.beng cress

dawned calm .and clear.The mothers of all the Lowran hurried over their own mututinal use-and-wont that they might wash and brush and deck the children whom Providence and their experience of the-married state had provided them with.By 8 o'clock the entire population under the age of twelve presented to the casual eye a red and scurfy appearance, the effect of vi maternal handling of the coarse roflerdowel which hung behind every kitchen door.On all other days of the year the forthgo scholars of Pominie Gracie were permitted: to do their own washing, only in very particular cases having to undergo a maternal inspection, more or less cursory, according to the work in hand.But this one morning the axe was laid to the root of the tree.Nothing was left to imagination.- Male and fernale after its kind, the youth of Lowran was not only washed\u2014it \u201cwas scoured!\u2019 Nevertheless, in the bosoms of the scholars abode abounding bliss.The boo- as the dux.by was as happy e gay ribbons of the girls, the tight breeches of the boys proclaimed holiday even more than the week\u2019s cessation of school, which.(by some law of the Medes and Persians) was reward of a

who should bear the cost of bringing regular troops to Montreal, the unfortunate volunteers are being kept away from their business, are earning a beggarly pittence and are threatened with the lous of their employment, and at the same time the city is paying eighteen hundred dollars a day for the services of the militis now on the wharves.\u2018There is: no sense in pottering about after technical excuses for evading the re- - aponbibility of peying \u2018 the , permanent troops wiile calmly accepting the respon- ability of paying the volunteers.The City Attorneys having been asked for.their opinion on the subject repor: prattically as follows: \"Ths city of Montreal has, in virtue of its charter, jurisdiction over the harbour &f \u2018Montreal in municipal matters, and is bound to maintain police service therein within the limits.of ite means, -in order _ to preserva peace and good order.\u201cIn the present case, the police not - having been considered sufficient, the .geunicipsl authorities deemgd it advisable to ou] out the troops, as they were au- \u201cthorited to do, by the statutes and the Militia Act, and we are of opinion, under ; the \u2018ciroumetanoes, Yhe city hss no more responsibility.* \u201cThe Dominion Government has the \u201cgeneral control of all the wharves, bar \u2018bours and porte in Canada, and is bound to see that peace is mainfatned, and\u2019 thet me parties interested in navigation sre protected.\u201cWe do not think that the city should facur any responailiility, since it has cal)- od out as it was authorized to do, the militia to protect the port.Its responsibility endéd there in cake of riot.\u201d .\u201cTiers is no doubt whatever about the \u201cmir being responsible for the coet of the militéa it hee called out.Nor can we see : thet it makes any difference to the citys \u201c mesponmibility whether the troops em- .- .eome from tbe military schools, qr from the offices, shops, warehouses and .fapkoxies of Montiel.In any case a Soh spaldler\u2019 Tory of regulars than the fiom\u2019 @ of volübteers nôw on service could do the work effdiently and the probabilities wre thet the city would save money \u201cby the change.Whether or no, it is a = Shing to unided- \u2018the responsibility | - ep ve shoulders of the volunteers.JATAION.The Bosrd of Tide has complained to tht Mayor about.the frightful condition of the streets.Mr.Barlow assures the Mayor that he is doing all bo can with the means at his disposal, and the Mayor thereupon states thet he is satisfied with Mr.Barlow\u2019s explanation.So are we all.Mr.Barlow cannot make any new sprinkling carts out of shingles, and he ls not expected to pay men out of his own pocket to scrape the streets.As an ex- planatioh, Mr.Barlow's is Al at Lloyds.But we are not satisfied with the streets, which is the real point at issue.The streets are a menace to health, a perpetual cost Lo merchants having goods to sell, rumation for household furniture, 8 prohibition against opening the windows of a mick room, and a disgrace to the city.If Mr.Barlow bas pot the proper means at his disposal to keep them clean, he should be furnished with them at once.His explanation may be a model, but then it is up ¢o the authorities who have left him short-landed and ill-equipped to explain.The streets are exceedingly dirty, and we do not care so much to know the reason why, as we do to see them cleaned.FRANCO-BRITISH ARBITRATION The movement im favour of an arbitra: tion treaty between France and Britain, growing out of the King\u2019s visit to Paris and his reception there, ia one that will have the support of every friend of peace.Arbitration cannot be at present very much more than a diplomatic \u201cbuffer\u201d to break-.the first force of an international misunderstanding; but even as such it is worth having.It may, however, in this case render smooth the path of peace by getting certain questions now in dispute out of the way, and thus reducing the chances of friction.For instance, the Newfoundland French Shore matter might \u2018be referred to such a tribunal with a broad hint that something better than a mere definition of the rights of the two parties would be welcome.This is, of course, eminently a case for a bargain, but, the spirit of arbitration would alone make such a bargain possible.France aud England are especially good subjects for a working arbitration arrangement, for neither nation is now engaged in active extension oi territory at any point at all likely to collide with the other.Neither in the Balkans nor in China have they naturally hostile interests, while in Africa and Siam there is no good reason for antagonism.If the King's visit leads to a {gesty of arbitra tion, it will be by no means the least notable act of his reign thus fai THE CODE OF KHAMMURABI.Professor Delitzsch, it will be remembered, in the lectures which he delivered before the German Emperor, dealt with th question of the Babylonian origin of certain portions of the Old Testament.His argument was founded principally on the newlydiscovered code of a Babylonian king, Khammurabi by name, who flourished about 2,200 B.C.The code in question was inscribed on a pillar of black diorite \u2018eight feet high, which was unearthed a litôle over a year ago by M.de Mergan, at Susa.The inscription has been photo- grapbed and published with a translation made by Father V.Schiel, O.P., the Assyriologist of the French exploring expedition.The opening words of the code, given in the order of the original, are most unpressive: \u2018\u201c\u2018In that day I, Khammurebi, the glorious prince, the worshipper of my God, justice for the land, for witness, plaintiff and defendant, to destroy the tyrant and not to oppress the weak, like unto the sun god, I promulgated.\u201d Then follows a Jong enumeratron of the king's titles, of his installation as king, and of the elevation of Babylon to the position of capital.This portion of the inseription is of the greatest importance on account of the number of references it contains to public works and historical events.More important still is the code itself in 1ts resemblance to documents of much later date long regarded as originals in a very special sense.\u2018From this code,\u201d says an article in the London Times, \u201ccame the basis of the Mosaic code.\u201d When, therefore, Khammurabi saya, \u201cLaw and justice l established in- the land, I made happy the human race in those days,\u201d he greatly underrated the importance of his work, which, through the Mo saic code, has exercised a vast influence for good over races of mankind of which he had no knowledge whatever, and in ages to which he could hardly have looked forward.The essential features of the code are described as personal responsibility, the law of retaliation, tempered as amongst the Hebrews by the law of Tensom, and the sanctity of an oath before God.Th= land laws are stringegt.A holder of land must cultivate it, or, if he does not, he must pay the same taxes as neighbouring cultivated land.The irrigation canals must be carefully looked after, and any one causing damage to a neighbour's land through neglect of any regulation had to make it good.A high position and ample legal \u2018protection are accorded to women.Marriage had to be attested by the execution of deeds.deceased are protected by the courte\u2014be- come, es we should say, wads in chancery.As regards apecific punishments for wrongs done there is upon many points a curious parallelism to the Hebrew code.Yet Khammurabi lived a thousand years before Moses, and a still longer period before the Mosaic code was compiled .As the London Times says: \u201cThe codd of Kbammurabi adds one more to a series of discoveries which have proved to every open mind that the ideps, religious and secular, of the early.Hebrews enshrined for us in the Old Testament were not all originel, but were largely influenced by an older Babylonian civilisation disclosed by the witness of the monuments The Biblical accounts of thie Creation or of the Deluge are shown to be variants of tradi tions common to the Hebrewp with, or perbaps borrowed by themi from, other nations of antiquity.\u201d The religions world, however, is po longer serieusly * alarmed \"the code \u201cof the wis end

in the heart of man.THE DOUXS AGAIN.The report that a few of the Doukhobors are on the march again will dé'something toward reconciling us to the rumblings that drifted east from the Barr All-Britisch colony.The unusually emotional aseort- ment of immigrants whom the eloquence of the preacher-leader drew away from the shores of England like a new and do- méstic band of \u201cpilgrims,\u201d Dey be unfitted in many ways for the rough life with which they were so suddenly confronted ; but-they-are not likely to start off across the prairie on a mad religious movement, full of danger to themselves and disaster to the good name of the country.British people\u2014however unused to pio- meer couditions\u2014are moved by motives we understand, and are amenable to arguments we can employ.They are acquainted with the spirit of our institutions, our lawa, and our notions of kiberty.Thev agree with us, fairly, in our eane views of religion.It is something to have colonists in our West drawn from such people as these.The great body of Doukhobors have, of course, no sympathy with this \u201cspirit pilgrimage.\u201d Very many of them were aplen- didly unmoved by it last year.I is altogether likely that in a few years all such frenzies will disappear in the calm atmosphere of the free and fertile prairies.There is no seed .to be seriously alarmed at the revival of the craze on a small scale.But, as a matter of choice, the British and American immigrants are the best suited to the battle of prairie settler.And these are coming in so fast that there is no need to look for others.The West ie being manned probably more rapidly than we will get our machinery ready to handle the products of their labour; 80 that it wil be the part of wisdom for us to permit the present forces to operate without any reaching out after strange and curious\u2019 peoples who will undersfand us no better than we understand them.The United States Post Office Department appears to have been for several years past a perfect nest of jobbery.On the head of all the other scandals which Postmaster.General Payne is now engaged in investigating comes a statement by a man who was for twenty-one years cashier of the Washington, D.C.Post Office, to the effect that the Department had hushed up serious irregularities in the accounts of that office.Only a few days ago an ex-Postmaster General, Tyner by name, who, for the last few years, has >\\ held the position of Assistant Attorney- General for the Post Office Department, but whe had been granted sick leave preparatory to his retirement, on the atrict understanding that he should \u2018abstain from taking any part in the duties of his office, sent his wife after office hours with an expert safe opener, instructing the latter to open the safe in his office in order that his wife might take possession of all the papers contained therein.For this he was at once dismissed, though his official term would have expired ou the first of this month; and a suit has been Thetituted against him for purloining ofti- cial papers.President Roosevelt is preaching very fine doctrines all over the West, but there is evidently much to amend in the way in which the public departments are actually being administered.It is difficult to believe that all the scandals are concentrated in the Post Office.There is this to remark about the United States Post Office, that it is not a very efficient institution.Jobbery and efficiency do not generally go together.Can ft be that the Antares wWil- be \u2018automationlly spi withdrawal of private: o

ages run from & xteen to eight, met the father and mother in an ante room and spent same little time together.The meeting was a painful ope.Mr.Ryan, the landlord of the house in which the alleged blackmailing teok place, was again called.His most interesting statement to-day was that when searching the house after the arrest, in company with Detective Riopel, he entered the closet from which Barber is said to have sprung.and was surprised to find that during the time that Mrs.Barber, or Allison, as she was then known, had had the kev.a heavy eteel hook and eve had been placed on the inside of the door and frame so that a man could get into the closet and fasten himeelf in.A nafl had also heen driven into the door from the outside in such a manner a8 to give a person the idea that the door had been naled up from the outside.The nail had, however.been driven in when the door stnod open and then bent.so that as a matter of fact it did not go into the frame of the door at

Baturday\u201cufternoon, at 2.0 to Mount Royal Cemetery, Expressed His Views.\u2018 Special to The Montreal Star.\u2018 Ottawa, May 7\u2014The first order-ofthe- day at the Railway Committee this morning was the Grand Trunk Pacific Bill.Early in the morning the magnates began to gather, Nir Charles Rivers-\\Vilson, Messre, Haye, Moore and Wainwright, of the Grand Trunk Railway,with their counsel.»ir Adolphe Caron, Messrs.Bigger, IR.V.Sinclar and White: Mr.MacPnersos, president of the Molsons Bank: Messrs.Mackenzie and Mann, Mr.Drinkwater,and a number of other railway men.: Across the whole width of the room ran an immense map, showing the route of the proposed line [rom Quebec to North Bay, then with an arç to the north, to Winnipeg, then Battleford, Edmonton, Dunvegan, and through the Peace River Pass to Port Simpson.It also showed branches from Edmonton, through the Yellow Head Pass to Butte Inlet, and from Battleford to Calgary.linmediately the bil was called, Dr.Sproule represented that the map did not comply with the rules, as it did not ahow other railways through the district.Mr.Hyman suggested that he wait till the preamble came up.Dr.Sproule, Mr.Talbot and Mr.O.C.Casgrain all attacked the inap as not showing all other lines, and complying with the rules, and sug: gested that the bill be laid over for a new map.Cl.Tisdale thought all lines were theré, aia they had better get to business.fiom.J.1.Tarte suggested that the Government -\u2018F-!-le ghould make the linc; showing other railways more plaialy.Meantime they could go on with the ar gument, .Mr.Talbot raised the point of order, under the rules of the committee.Mr.Hyman asked him to pame th?rule.Hon.James Sutherland thought tt.- map complied fairly with the rules.He thought they could proceed to business and on a future occasion have a clearer one.NO INJUSTICE WOULD BE DONE.Hon.A.G.Blair did not think any in justice would be done by going on.Tt bill would not be disposed of at this sitting, aud any defects could be repaired later on.Nearly an hour was occupred in this discussion (hen Mr.Hyman ruled the map practically in order.; Mr.McCarthy, who introduced the bill, desired the fullest consideration.Why was the committee so technical this morn- in?This roused the committee, and Mr.McCarthy dropped this line of ressoning.He argued that a line from Quebec ta Port Simpson, connecting at Quebec with the I.C.R.would be a new and valuable all-Canadian line from ocean to ocean.He proposed to ask an amendment by providing that instead of going via North Bay the line be carried almost in an sir line from Quebec to the highest point east of Lake Nepigon.and passing about forty miles south of Lake Abitibi.The line would develop the undeveloped part of Quebec and Northern Ontario.The Grand Trunk Railway.said the speaker.was the pioncer of older Canada.The Canadian Pacific Railway made \u2018its i » west, and had her fante in the Ne.i t things for the west.wa were altered.The Grand Trunk desired to pencirite the west, and advance from the country they had aireadv de veloped.He alluded to the congevtion of trade in the west, and the necessity of more outlets to keep Canadian trade in Canada.He thought the Grand Trunk Railway could contidentlv apneal for this charter.Tbe company would also ask power to connect their main line with the Ontario line to Temiscamina.SIR CHARLES ON THE BILL.Sir Charles Rivers-Wilson said the bill was introduced under the auspices of the Grand Trunk Railway.Mr.Hays and also himself would be at the disposal of the committee, but he wished to explain the reasons which had induced this bill.It was unnecessary for him to dwell on the necessities of the North-West, the cry had gone up throughout Canada on this account.It therefore became the obvious duty of the Grand Trunk Railway, which had occupied such a large space in the history of Canada, to come forward.No corpora tion could be better equipped.The strategical and geographical position, its strength, its splendid equipment: all marked the Grand Trunk Railway out as the future persons to carry out this werk.It became their duty to come forward, and he did it.They came forward at once and had many assurances of support.+ It was only since he had been in Canada that he had heard certain voices of opposition.(Laughter) He bad reason to believe the dissentients were in the minority.It was very important, however, that the bill should be passed unanimously.There had been doubts in the bona fides of the company.These he assured them were utterly unfounded.He hoped the bill would receive favourable consideration.THE MINISTER OF RAILWAYS.Hen.A.G.Blair said Sir Charles Riv- ers-Wilson had spoken very plainly.He drew atteation to a statement that Sir Charles Rivers-Wilson had assured bis shareholders in London that the G.T.R.would not touch this lité unless the Dominion Government came materially te \u2018the assistance- of the company.Sir Charles Rivers-Wilson had stated to his shareholders tbat naturally they might look to the Domirion Government, which would reap a very large benefit,for material assistance.It was but natural that they should look to the Government for suc assistance as had been granted yery liberally to other similar enterprises.He bad ventured to pass a very well deserved eulogy upon the various Governments of Canada, and thought the Grand Trunk Railway, was as deserving of assistance: as was the Canadian Pacific Railway at the commencement.In answer to Mr.Mac- lean.Sir Charles soid he thought, wn- doubtedly.there was a congestion of trode in the west awaiting a railway.In ane wer to Mr.Gaonong, Sir Charles was heard to say that Quebec would he the summer port and that Portland would certainly not be the winter port.Without prejudice he thought they would be prepared to give a \u2018preference to Canadian ports for traffic originating in C'a- padian territory.inted out that Sir Mr.Galliher Charles had ata that the Grand Trunk Railway were pr to put their hand to the plough and go ah Would they do so with or without a bonus from the Government ?THE WAYS AND MEANS.gir Charles Rivers-Wilson said they bad not come to the consideration of the ways and means by which \u2018this line would built.He wished to be very guarded in anything he mid on the fiscal question, and feared his answer would not be very satisfactory.In answer to Mr.Pringle, Sir Charles said he thought the various sections of the read wo be p with eimul- taneously.Mr.Pringle said that from the remarks of Sir Charles Rivers-Wilson at the semi- annua) meeting of the G.T.R.hé gather ed that the Grend Trunk Railway were not in any way at the back of the Grahd jcfi.If they were, why ou ona]

to a Charter\u2014Mr.Hays Tells of Plans to Rush Construction Work\u2014The Minister of Railways Railway, and four were merely officials of the Grand Trunk Railway.MR.HAYS OUTLINES PLANS.Mr.C.M.Hays thought the presence of Sir Charles Rivers-Wilson, as president of the Grand Trunk Railway.and state ment that the Grand Trunk Railwdy was supporting the bill was sufficient.The Grand Trunk Railway was behind the bill.They were going to see it through, and the line through the section of the country between \\Vinnipeg and the east would be pushed through first.They would not object to that being provided for in the bill.Nine parties were actively surveying the route at present aud they were working between Winnipeg and North Bay.The road would be an all: Canadian route.Canadian goods and Canadian ports would have the preference.He said \u2018\u2018preference\u2019\u2019 for this reason, that the Grand Trunk Railway could flood Montreal with freight at any time, within three days, in summer, and in winter the Intercolonial Railway could not carry one third of the traffic they could give them.He paid a high tribute to Mr.Tarte for the improvements in traffic and terminals which he had inaugurated.lt was no use talking of where freight was going, and to what ports, until they bad provided for the taking care of the {freight before it reached the terminals.In answer to Mr.Mareil, Mr.Huyea said the matter of Canadian goods going from Canadian ports depended on the provision of terminal facilities.In answer to Mr.Fowler, Mr.lays said the terminals at Portland were provided partly by the Grand Trunk Railway, assisted by the city.They were periectly willing to do in Canada what they had done in Maine in this regard.D answer to Mr.Tarte, Mr.Hays saad the Grand Trunk Railway would start on the construction of the mad between North Bay and Quebec immediately on the completion of the murvevs.In answer to Col.Hughes.Mr.Hays eaid the work between Winnipez and Quebec would be begun at a dozen places at once wherever the necessities were greatest and the work along the whole route would be rushed to completion.GEORGIAN BAY CANAL.Alluding to the ian Bay Canal, he said the Grand Trunk ilway was in favour of anything that would develop the resources of Canada.In answer to Mr.Fowler, Mr.Hays said the Grand Trunk Railway were lookin tdwards St.Jobn as a port, but he coul say no more.The Grand Trunk Railway was considering building into the Maritime Provinces, but he was not prepared to lay the plans before the committer.The preamble was not carried at one o'clock, and the committee adjourned sine die.1SIR THOMAS HAS - NOT YET DECIDED Special to The Montréal Star.Victoria, B.C.May 7.\u2014 It'is understood thet Sir Thomas Shaughnessy haa wired Hon.Mr.Wells asking him to now disclose the reasons he gave Sir Thomas for taking the (\u2018rown\u2019s grants back to Vie- toria, and also denying in a most explicit manner that he ever told the Chief Commissioner that any company was taking over the lands in question from the Canadian Pacific Railway.Sir Thomas Shaughnessy has not yet determined whether he will give evidence in n before the Commission which in itish Columbia is ferreting out a scandal in which the Prior Government is interested.The Canadian Pacific Railway is connected with the matter «hrough some negotiations which a member of the administration had with the company over the sale of some Crown lands.It is just asible that Sir Thomas may content imself with making a written statement regarding his connection with the affair.But he will be unable to make any definite announcement respecting the course he will pursue for some days.PROSPECTUS OF TRANSYAL LOU Iondon, May 7.\u2014 The Transvaal Joan of

Calls a Witness a Son vf a Gun in the Court.Special to The Montreal Star.Victoria.B.C., May 7.-Joha Tavlor, Was cross-examined yestenday by the spe cial committee investigating the Colum: bia and Western Land grant matter.While his evidence in chief was not dis turbed, he gave expression to certain im pressions which further ingreased the gravity of the present situation.Mr.Tay Jor stated that a conversaticn he had with Mr Wells in Montreal, when the latter said there should be 20.000 or 30.000 acres in the deal.convinced him that Mr.Wells was seeking personal concessions from the CPR.under the guise of asking them to build to Spencer's Bridge.anc further that his advances tv the witness, to get Mr.Eberts to drop the prosecution of a road bos in the interor who had forged a name on the time sheet, was a trap to get a catch on Mr.Eberts.He was warned later to beware of little men, meamng Mr.Wells, During the examination, when asked if with Mr.Wells.the witness said, \u201cNo, he had not been friendly with Mr.Duns- mur.The latter thereupon interjected: \u201cNo wonder he triel to hold me up, the sm of a gun.\u201d Mr.Tavlor.continu'ng, said he did not tell Mr.Prentice, as the latter was a mere Man Friday for Mr.Wells, carrying ales to Mr.Dun-muir.He frankly admitted he had a contempt for Mr.Wells.As these s!atements are regaried as re flecting on Mr.Eberts and as showing continued assmriation of these men with the Attorney -tieneral.his continuance in the Cahinet is regarded as impossible.During the afternoon a telegram was read frem Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, stat ing that if a report of what Mr.Wells had atatel was correct, it would be ne vessary for him to come to Victoria and go on the stand to remove the unwarranted impression that he had been privy to something dishonourable.WILL WAS IMPRACTICABLE.Supreme Court Hears Power vs.At- torney-General of N.8.Special to The Montreal Star Ottawa, May 7.\u2014In the Supreme Court yesterday the arguments were

recent visit of King Edward to Rome, was the subject of a short debate in the House of Commons yesterday.Mr.Thos.Gibson Bowles, who raised the question, clai that under the Foreign Office regulations of 1898, all British officials serving abroad were prohibited from accepting such decorations from foreign sovereigns, Replying to this, the Prime Minister contended that King Edward's visit to Italy

impression among experts ja that the flre has been extinguished.With the pumps at the disposal of the company.it is thought that the mine will be clear of water in two months at the outside.but it will be possible for a portion of the men to go to work long ere that.Notwithstanding the be considerably less than would have been the case bad no fire occurred, still Mr.Ross maintains that the output will be greater than in 192.The fire had not put any of the miners out of employment, as all were given employment in the other mines.CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL ABOUT TO CHANGE HANDS.The Catholic High School, situated at Belmont Park, is about to change hands.The three boards, Catholic High Bchoo! Board, St.Bridget's Orphan Asylum Board and the' Catholic Commissioners\u2019 Board, have held a joint meeting iately about the proposed change, and it was thought the best plan advisable would be to give it over to the Christian Brothers, to be used as a parochial school for 8t.Patrick's parish.: This srrangement will leave the building on Cote street, at present occupied by the pupils attending St.Patrick's Bchool, free, and as it is owned by the Sulpician Fathers, they intend to use it for industrial 1 purposes.The change Is brought about by the large financial outlay attending the run- ring of the present High Bchool, as the attendance is not large.The present teaching staff attached to the Catholic High School have been notified that their services are no longer nesded after the end of the present scholastic year.SHIPPING NEWS.Port of Montreal.ARRIVED.May $.Steamship King Edward, Pickett, from Halifax, light, to J.B.Brock & Co.Schooner No.86, M.Glean, from Hali- tax, light,

probable that it could be used again.The slide has covered over a thousand acres to an average depth of thirty feet.Its action was similar to that of a snuw slide running out fan shaped, and throwing up rocks to a height of at least 490 feet, probably 500 feet, on the opposite mountain- The large quantity ef powdered lime and dust, a the friction on each other of the hard blocks of limestone, when falling, according to Mr.Pearce\u2019s theory were the cause of the flames, and fumes of gas, which lead the peuple of Frank to adhere to the thecry of an earthquake or volcanic explosion.Mr.Pearce

it was a subetitute for existing debts.He would assume that 4 per cent.was chérged for interest and the sinking fund together, that is, that the charge for development loan would be £1,400,000 pre annum.* Financial experts in the House of Commons are of the opinion that the loan will be issued at 3 per cent.It is under stood that the prospectus will be issued by the Bank of England &t once.There is considerable surprise that the Government should have withheld the price of issue and the rate of interest.CARNEGIE BEFORE IRON AND STEEL INSTITUTE.\u2014\u2014\u2014 The First President of tho Associa- * tion Who is Not a British Bubject.London, May 7.-The annual meeting of the Iron and Steel Institute here to-day was largely attended.After being formally installed in the chair, the new presi-: ent.Andrew Carnegie, who remarked that he waa the first president of the institute who was not a British subject, presented Sir James Kitson, a former president of the institute, with the Bessemer gold medal for 1908.Mr.Carnegie tly delivered his inau ad- a was listened to EE mue interest.The hearty appetites of children enjoy the delicious flavor and get healthy nourishe ment from a sandwich made BRANTFORD 15 ALL RIGHT STILL Will Turn Up Here on : Trees with Millar's Royal Paragon | \u201cthe First of July as Br J Canadian Cheese.It is | Promised.;

He noticed not long ago the action of a union in New York which ex.Jled a member for belonging to the mi- itia, and he was told that some of the labour organizations in this country discouraged their men from belonging to the militia.He did not believe it.It should not be said that in Canada the citizens were discouraged by gny one from performing their duty.| Mr.Clarke pointed out that in work done for the Government one of the clauses of the contract was that it should be done under union conditions, and that the union scale of es should be paid.In the case of the \u2019longshoremen an agreement had been made as to the rate of wages.Since the Government recognized the union, the Government could surely have no objection to u ing private citizens to do likewise.He had himself been a of a union for 33 years, and he knew that such bodies recognized their interest to be identiral with that of their employers and their country.Members of the unions believed the international connction to be to their advantage.Un- THE 'LONGSHOREMEN'S STRIKE.\u2014Army Service Corps transporting provisions to the Militia upon the The men of the Ariny Service Corps yesterday took over the task of supplying the men of the ent forces now on duty at the river front with rations.These are to be cooked by a well-known local caterer and are then to be taken to the wharves by the Army Service men and there distributed to the regulars.The undertaking is likely to prove a big one provided other regular troops are despatched to the asaistance of those at present on duty here.But the officers of the Army Service Corps feel that their men are equal to the task.To facilitate matters the latter will in future live and sleep at the drill hall.harves.Comfortable quarters have been assigned to them and a large marquee has been pitched in the centre of the large hall in which they will mess.A caterer of well- known standing will supply the meals.\u2018he men of this corps were despatched to coBect the blankets for accoutrements of the Vics.and remove them to the drill ball.The Vies had been relieved from duty and it became necessary to transfer their ongings military headquarters.The task necessitated several runs of the Army Service waggon to the Allan wharf, but at last the job was finished and the men were allowed to rest for a brief interval.THE 'LONGSHOREMEN\u2019S STRIKE.\u2014The First Guard of Regulars to be put on duty at the Allan Line Pier.'

the purpose of egitation.RALPH SMITH GIVES OPINION.Me.Ralph Smith, of Vancouver, condemned strikes except as a last Tesont, but when people whose livelihood on their daily wages went on strike there was probably some reason for the struggle.As to the complaint against outaide agit- store, it was not fair.He had not heard any complaint against alien coming over and exercising oppression in this country.\u2018The \u2019longahoremen did not receive any dictation from the States.The e of this country were not in favour 0 - pulsory arbitration, but they would be willing to go further than at present in the direction of compulsory investigation and Government attempts at concilistion.Bir William Mulock made a carefully arded statement of what had been done y the Government.He declined to discuss the larger phases of the labour question.He was perfectly sure that nobody desired to.make any political capital out of tho ent situation.When the trouble wih the \u2019\u2018longahoremen , the Government had offered to exert ta influence.This offer had been into consideration by both aides and been by both sides deliberately refused, Since then a representative.of the Government had been constantly in Montreal, keeping in touch and awaiting s favourable mo- | that extent it is forced in fortunately in the past more Canadian workmen had gone to the United States than there had been Americans come here.Canadiens thus going to the United States had found that the international card bad never been dishonoured and that it was a subetantial advantage.The employers had placed themselves in.deliberate hostility to the \u2019lopgshoremen, and had thus ren a settlement most difficult.\u2018 There must be recognition of each party by the other before agreement could be reached.There must be observance of the golden rule.He repudiated \"the statement that foreign agitators were the cause of the trouble.TARTE DEFENDS THE PRESS.Hon.Mr.Tarte protested against the charge which had be made that the Lenppape Ts were anxious to rake up the 3 of the working-man.There was no use in trying to deny to workingmen the right to form themselves into organizations.Capital formed organizations and labour had the same right.The discussion lasted for some time longer.being participated in by several members who shed more or less light on the points in debate.Mr.Osler expressed

in Blue Label Hall when the strike situation in the city will be discnss- ed.Reports will be received from the var ious izations whose members are on strike, In conversation with a Star reporter to-day, an officer of the Council said: Just as the Union is recognized, just to ito responsibili- it could not shirk if it would.\u201d The time e time may come, he said, when it will be advivable to incorporate unions, bat it is bot yet here.; LT naa raw A LA toy : \u2019 Export Freight - Mostly Affected.So far as freight is concerned, the team-, sters\u2019 strike will affect mostly that wéich th is intended for export.The freight will either have to be re-| tained here for the time being or forwarded to other ocean ports.for transhipment.Of the two railways.only the C.P.R.has thus far taken definite action to provide for the expeditions, transportation of their output from a Canadian port.In view of the impossibility of handling freight here, perhaps for some time to come, the C.P.R.bas arranged to Joad and unloed all its vessels at Three Rivers.Two hundred men started work there on the Montrose works, and Mr.D.W.Campbell, the manager, says that the arrangement works admirably.Foreign freight over the Grand Trunk from the west is going mostly to New York, while that from eastern points is being shipped at Portland, Me.The action of both railroads in this re gard is calculated to have an effect short- ly upon the volume of freight coming into e city.But thus fer there has been no appreei- able diminution, the result being that the freight sheds are congested.A great deal more freight is arriving than can possibly be removed by the parties to whom it is consigned.The balance of the freight, which would otherwise have come to the city, is doubtless being held back.~ Merchants have notified their agents to hold goods until they can be delivered.The policy of the two railways is somewhat different as regards freight.While the Grand Trunk, owing to the vards being already crowded with cars, has telegraphed its agents to refuse ell freight consigned to Montreal, the C.P.R.has merely notified its agents to insert in the way bill a clause to the effect that the company will not be responsible for delays in delivery\u2014both of which actions will, of course, have the effect of reducing the amount of freight coming into Montreal.Montreal May Run Short of Provisions The average Montrealer who has so far felt that the strike was something which did not affect him will begin to feel a personal interest therein when his butter and \u2018eggs and poultry run short, and grotery and provision men announce that they cau- not supply the goods on account of the strike._ There is not much danger of a famine, but there may be a good deal of inconveni- epce and discomfort to both the dealers and the customers if the strike is not soon settled.If the carters will not bring goods from the stations and wharves to the wholesale people, the latter cannot sppply the retail men, and their customers\u2019 may telephone and fume in vain.They will have to wait for their supplies.Many of the wholesale grocers are suffering serious inconvenience.Some them have their own carters at work Bringing in the goods, but this is a slow matter, and the delay is causing a great loss of time and money.The \u2019longshoremen builded better\u2014or rather worse\u2014than they knew when they went out on strike, for indirectly or direct ly nearly all the people of the city will be in some way affected by it before long.WHAT DEALERS SAY.Messrs.Birks and Corner, when spoken to, said they were very much inconvenienced.\u201cOur carters won't draw the stuff,\u201d they said, \u201cas the other carters will turn on.them if they do.course we hope for the best, but running short already on sa few lines.\u201d Mr.Carter, of Carter & Galbraith, took a hopeful view of, the case.\u201cI-dont think,\u201d he said, \u201cthat ye need trouble to wonder how long the d necessities will last.There is ao need for any anxiety on that score.Personally we are doing out own carting, and so we are not affected very much by the strike, which is certainly serious enough, but not so serious as to prevent supplies of food being brought in even if rather slowly.\u201d .: Messrs.Forbes Bros.stated that the strike was interefering a great deal with their business, and putting them to much trouble.\u201cWe are using our own carters,\u201d one of the heads of the business stated, \u201cbut this is very slow and there is a wear:- some delay.There is no immediate danger of the food supplies giving out, but there are Of- | the -strikers, so we d ie no doubt that if the strike is not soon settled the supplies will get short, because of the difficulty of bringing in new stuff.\u201d Mesars.L.Chaput, Son and Co.are also sending their own carters down to the wharves for cases.\u201cSome of the shipa are unloading, even though very slowly,\u201d they said, \u201cbut there is a great loss of time and money.We are simply obliged to neglect our city orders, and eend that we can to the railway stations for the out- of-town customers.The supplies won't run out for a while yet, but this is causing « great deal of trouble.\u201d Messrs.J.A.Mathewson and Co.are also having a great deal of trouble and feel the effects of the strike on their business.They stated that it was imposaible to get anything from the station and wharves.\u201cWe have hundreds of packages of stuff lying there which we cannot remove, because there is no one to do it.It is not hard to see what trouble this is making for us, and how it is inconveniencing our customers.We are not having any more perishable stuff delivered.This will stop the supply of butter eggs and poultry.\u201d THE \u2019LONGSHOREMEN MAKE NEW PROPOSITION TO SHIPPING MENA new proposition has been made to the shippers by the \u2019longshoremen, as a Te sult of a conference held at the City Hall yesterday afternoon, at which several of the leaders of the \u2019longshoremen were present.Two new clause were drawn up to be submitted to the shipping agents at the meeting of the Shipping Federation.As stated in v's Star, Ald.L.A.Lapointe has been bothered a great deal with people who are suffering one way or the other through the strike.He, there fore, set out yesterday with a determination to do something, to put an end to the difficulty.With t end in view he approached the Mayor, and afterwards had interviews with a number of the \u2019longshoremen.A result of his efforts was a meeting yesterday afternoon, at the Mayor's office.The conference wus private, those pres ent were Mayor Cochrane, Ald.L.A.Lapointe, Ald.Carter, Ald.Levallee, Messrs, Mr.de Struve wired Sir

Quebec ship labour ers are leaving no stone to mark their y for the striking \"longshoremen of Montreal and to aid them in their struggle.In fact some of them virtuadly take credit for baving been at

militated considerably agamet the port of Quebec ship labourers.It is, therefore, particulaity in the interest of Quebec labourers that the Montreal men should succeed, and it is largely for this

political situa tion 1s re by Lord ne\u2019s im- tant announcement in the House of rds in regard to the British policy on the Persian Gulf.It has been cleariy evident for some time that Rusme desired to develop her plan of aggrandizement in two querters before roceeding to execute her designs a Jttoman rule in Constent- imople.es M: uria and North China.There thé United States has intervened with.a protest which promises to be effectual for the time being.was Persia, where Russia's ultimate object was to eecure an outlet to the sea in the Persian Gulf.Great Britain now plies a checkmate to this ambition by declaring that she will meet its execution with war This decisive move marks a wholesome renewal of vitality and vigor in British policy.lt alters the w com of the general crisis, which ie ering im European affairs.The Russian efforts » both directions indicated are for the sent paralyzed.The chief motives Ww ich led Russia to hold in check the Betkan troubles by every means in her power, reasons why Russia should continue her present policy in Macedonia and Bulgaria are her partial unpreparednezs for an immediate campaign agaznst Turkey, and the serious unrest within her own ers.The next few days will probably bring some indication whether the Ruesian plans have been changed.It is not at all pos sible that her reply to Lord Lansdowune\u2019s militant threat will be the first move in the the phan which will culminate in the of Rusman troope against Constantinople.It is cafe to say that there will be no British threat of war to thwart her in thet direction.But it is folly to attempt to forecast with any confidence the action of Russian diplomacy.The Crar's Government has received, within a week, two rebuffs of almost tertifie violénce, .each from an unexpected quarter.They may bring immediate retaliation, or t.may be received in Muscovite silence, whic means no acquiescence, but a long future reckoning.The Strain .Of the Straight Front Mode! is so disposed
