German, Russian, 16, and French 1.s«Wounded\u2014British, 4 ; German, 7; Russian, 45, and French 1.«The Chinese torpedo boats were seized.\u201d 3; The Shanghai correspondent of the Daily Mail, telegraphing yesterday, says: \u201cThe forts began firing in obedience to orders from Pekin, conveyed in a personal edict of the Empress -Idownger, by advice of Kang-Yi (president of the Ministry of War).Several warships were struek by shells from the 12-inch guns of the forts.ot \u201cThe heavy Russian losses were duc to the blowing up of the magazine at Nanas- ur.\u201cFour hundred Chinese are reported to have been killed.The Chinese, when retreating, fell into the hands of the Russian land force.\u201d The Daily News has the following from PA \u2018| Che-Foo: \u201cT'wo of the forts were blown up.The thirty-two warships at Taku aggregated 200,000 tons and carried more than 300 guns, \u201cThe failure of Admiral Seymour's column and its retreat to Tien Tsin, increases, it 1s presumed, the peril of the legation in Pekin, which iz still isolated, althodgh Rhanghai forwards Chinese rumours ths the legations were attacked by mobs who were mowed down by machine guns and algo that the members of the legations were massacred, \u201cThe situation at Niu-Chwang is reported critical.The Pritish consul at Kiu-Kiang has ordered all foreigners to leave Ku Ling and Nau King Chang.Four thousand German troops have been ordered to China, 10,000 French troops are waiting to embark at Saigon, capital of French Cochin China, and from 3,000 to 5,000 more Russians have been ordered from Port Arthur to Taku, the Government pointing out that Russia is sending so many troops solely for the sake of peace and humanity.WHERE TAKU FORTS ARE.In view of the international character nf the attack upon and the capture of the Taku forts some interest may be felt in the following statement prepared by Major Simpson, in charge of the Military information bureau of the War Department: Taku is situated at the mouth of Pei-Ho southern bank of the river about 67 miles form Tien Tsin.with which it is connected bv a railroad.It is noted for the three engagements that have taken place there between the British and the Chinese.Part of the Tien Tsin army corps has modern organization, drill and arms, ond is rtationed at the Taku forts.Between Taku and Tien Tsin, the centre nf the defences and chief arsenal of northern China are permanent maps where there are usually 30,000 troops, infantry, cavalry and artillerv armed with Mauser rifles and Krupp guns.The cavalry also carry Mau- rer carbines.These troops have been wel instructed for 10 ar 12 years bv foreign officers.The armament of the Taku forte consist of very heavy Krupp guns, and the apnroaches to the forts from the gulf of Peichili are extremely difficult.e fortifications consist of three forta, a large one on the right bank and two smaller ones on the left.All the forts are armed with wumerous guns of the most varied systems and calibrea.Tn the construction of all forts of the recond zone the muddy clay roil of the coast waz used, which during.the dry season becomes cracked and crumbles very easily, and the garrison in continually making repairs.Ip Taku are the materials for closing up the mouth of the Pei-Ho.All the coast fortifications have mines.RUSSIA MASSING TROOPS.The Brussels correspondent of the Standard, in a despatch dated yesterday, Bays: \u201cRussia has massed 40,000 1nen, with at Kiachta, with orders iu seven batteries, proceed to Maimatchin, a Chinese town contiguous to Kiachta and thence to ag- vance along the telegraph route to the Mongal town of Or-a, 200 miles south vf Kinchta and seven hundred and fifty miles northwest of Pekin.\u201d The Shanghai gorrespondent of the Times under yesterday's date gives the fol lowing description, said to be taken from official sources, of the action at Taku: \u201cOn the afternoon of June 16.In view of the large bodies of Chinese troopa arsem- bling at the forts and of the facts that torpedoes had been laid in the river and that all communications were interrupted, the naval commanders held a council and decided tq send an ultimatum, calling for the disbandment of the troops and announcing that, if this demand were not complied with before 2 a.m.of the follow- the ing day, the united squadron would des troy the forts.LL.\u2019 a \u201cShortly after midnight the forts opened: re, sian The British, French, German, Rus Japanese warships replied.4 # of the forts were blown up sud the rest were carried by assault.\u201cTwo British, one American and five Chinese warships are in Che-Foo harbour.\u201d STATE OF WAR EXISTS.The morning papers consider that a state of war exists and that the issue is between Western and Eastern civilization.Lhe Times says that the latest news indefinitely increases a situation already sufficiently serious.The vity of the situation in China is now fully recognized; and the Paris morning papers demand energetic steps for the protection of the interests of French citizens.The measures taken by M.Delcasse, the foreign minister, are unanimously approved; but the general feeling now is that ts the Chinese question in one aspect is exclusively French, the Government should do much more.The Matin: says: \u201cNot only in Yun Nan is it necessary that the Government should Jook after the interests of.France.We must take action with the other powers av und Pekin befitting the position of France as a great naval and military power.\u201d The Journal echoes these sentiments: \u201cA despatch from Toulon announces that orders have been received there to put in readiness two armed cruisers and to prepare a large quantity of rations wily transport for a 1000 men.\u2019 ; \u201c\u201cDetachments of marines at Marseilles have been ordered to prepare for China as soon as possible.\u201d The failure of the international forces to reach Pekin has greatly intensified the anxiety here as to the fate of the Kuropeans huddled together in the legations at the Chinese capital, and it is feared also that the check to Admiral Seymour's forces necessitating their return to Tien Tsin will lead to large accessions to the ranks.of \u2018the Boxers and make their suppression stil more difficult.The officials of the Foreign Office pay no word has n received from the British minister at Pekin, Sir Claude Macdonald, since June 12, and the Government was ignorant as to whether the legations at the Chinese capital had been captured or nbt.The admirals on the spot were relied on to overrome all difficulties.Admiral Seymour, the British commander, not bein by orders and any requests whic.mnke would be promptly met.\"HOLD VICEROY RESPONSIBLE.PARIS, June 19.\u2014The French consul-gen- eral in South Chins,\u201d who was instructed to send into Tohquin all the French citi- bampered he might .sent to Pekin or from the He à t believe that the United States are at war with China.that there had evidently been a great misunderstand.|: ing and was confident that if it wer fm : n .that the Taku forts had fired u ternational fleet it was either use th commander of the Chinese forts there did not understand what was wanted, or had failed to receive proper instructions: from his superior through an error.had himself received no word of news here until further developments.| Secretary Hay was asked if the latest developments had made change in | ed toward this Chinese trouble.He replied: \u201cOur naval forces in that region bave directed to act concurrently with the forces fr of the other powers for the protection\u2019 of all American interests.\u201d .i The actual news of the Chinese situation was received by the Navy Department in two cablegrams, the confents of which | were made known as follows: \u201cThe department has reccived = cable gram from Admiral Remey at Cavite, dated River.fired on the foreign vessels and surrendered to the allied morning of June 17.The department has: instructed Admiral Kempff to concur with the other powers in taking all steps neces sary to protect all American interests.GERMAN CONSUL'S REPORT.BERLIN, June 19.\u2014The German Consul}: at Che-Foo telegraphs that a Japanese torpedo boat from Taku has broug owing: River and collected troops from Hei-Kwan.\u201cFhe foreign commanders assembled the Russian flagship and addreseed an timatum to the commanders of the trcops before 2 o'clock, June 17.;

HALIFAX.NS.June 19.\u2014In connec tion with the extension of the General As sembly\u2019s work in the new districts of the Presbyterian Church, the fund for helping congregations and mission stations in the building of manses and churches has for long years been considered by the denomi- pation as of special importance.The work in this department was reported upon yes terday.Ir.Robertson made an earnest plea for the enlargement of the funds and the General Assembly gave endorsation.The board during the year assisted in the erection of forty new churches and eight manses.It made a loan on a church pre viously built, to reduce interest and help the congregation to lower its claims on the sugmentation fund, and made a loan to a mission whose people are widely scattered to enable them to build sheds to shelter their horses in the severe winter weather.To one congregation to which a grant was made, the board made, contrary to its general practice, a temporary loan to save embarrassment, and it increased to another ecngregation a grant previously made from P100 to 8150.Of the assistance given in twenty-two \u2018cases it was by way of grant snd in thirty by way of loan.Of the new churches two are in Ontario, fourteen in Manitoba, thirteen in the North-West Ter- vitories and eleven in British Columbia.Five of the manses are in Manitoba, two in the North-West Territories and one in British Columbia.Of the congregations helped two are in the Presbytery of Super- for, three in Winnipeg, six in Rock Lake, three in Melita, one in Portage la Prairie, two in Brandon, five in Minnedosa, four ! in ina, one in Calgary, nine in Edmonton, one in Kamloops, six in Kootenay, four in Westminster and two in Victoria.Of the manses three are in Rock Lake Presbytery, two in Minnedosa, abd one each in Melita, Calgary and Kamloops.The grants made amount to , on buildings valued at $15,950, and the loans to $15,300 on buildings valued at $44,810.The outlay of the board thus amounts to $17,040 on property valued at $60,230.In 1882 when the board was first appointed by the Gen eral Assembly, there were only eighteen churches and three manses in all the country between Lake Buperior and the Yukon.The board has since that time assisted in_the erection of 384 churches and seventy-six manses, or 440 buildings in all, worth, exclusive of the land on which they stand, $583,820.Only about one-fifth of the money controlled by the board has heen employed in the erection of manses, whiie four-fifths was employed in the erection of churches, and yet the rent saved by the manses would yield interest at the rate of between nine and ten per cent.on the total capital entrusted to the board.The saring of money effected by the eration of manses is a direct contribution to the home mis- _ gion and augmentation funds.: THE GIVING OF BRIBES.One: question with its answer was the fol- lowiux, which is important as bearing upon present times: \u2018Teceiving bribes or commissions in connection with politics or business prevalent in your community?What is being done to expose and condemn it?\u2019 This question introaueed the subject to which evidently the attention of the sessions has not been much given.At the same time the ques tion is an important one.We have been hearing much lately of the necessity of cultivating Christian citizenship.This is the Xélatiun involved in the question.The church in a good school for citizenship.The reports show that the violations of it referred to in this question are not found among us.Nor was the question asked with any expectation that they would be.The subject was introduced to direct attention to the fact that our religious life is, and shouid be, seen as conspicuously and brightly in our citizenship as in any other relation.There is no locality within the scope of the church\u2019s returns in which this evil has been so prominent as to have arrested the attention of the church.There is in almost every locality a small number of the population who may be enticed into the practices.The influence of Christian people should render them a diminishing fluantity in every part of the land.The greater guilt lies on those wbo, knowing the sin of it, and the baseness of the sin, take advantage of the poverty and ignor- anee of the persons they attempt to seduce.It is well that this ignoble and dangerous | < \u2014\u2014 DR.PIERCE'S FAVORITE PRESCRIPTION - Makes Weak Women Strong, And Sick Women Well.Yor over thirty years this celebrated remedy has been making women's lives Mappier\u2014bealthier\u2014safer.i any thousands of women have testified to its wonderful effect.; It ja the one, medicine that can be depended upon when there any derange- ais of the distinctly feminine organism.It purifies, heals, soothes, builds up.It needed when backaches make life miss erable\u2014when a sickening, dragging, bear- ing-down feeling makes work a weary agony and play impossible \u2014 when disa- able drains give proof of burning in- ammation\u2014when sich headgche, nervous irritability, loss of energy and appetite are the reminder of unhealthful irregularity or painful periods.\u201c1 had female trouble for eight years,\u201d writes J.Dennis, of 828 Kast College Street, e, IN.\u2018I was so bad I would lie and lou for death to come a: 1 8, a disagreeable drain bealn down pains pe the lower part of my bowel Sod auch dis tress every month, but now I never have a pain ~d0 ail my own work and am a strong and healthy woman.Thanks to your medicine, I never fo to recommend it to all suffering women.consider myself à living testimonia ef the benefits of ydur \u2018Favorite Prescription.\u2019 ** ali, Lerces Pleasant Pellets help e of all other medicines by keeping + tte liver active and the bowels bpen.At ail écclors-get apèas ask for, \u201cIs the sin of giving and , AUNYON'S INHALER CURES CATARRH Colds, Coughs, Hay Fever, Brom chitis, Asthma and all Diseases of theThroat and Lungs.Al Clouds of Modicated Vapor are inhaled through the mouth and emitted from the nos trils, cloausing and vaporizing all the inflamed and di parts which cannot be reached by medicine taken into the stomach.It reaches tho sore spots\u2014It heals the raw pl It s to the seat of discase\u2014It actsas tonic ta the whole system\u2014 $1.00 at TORONTN 143*nty1 AMERICAN STAMPS For smait.Remittances FOR SALI wAT.STAR BRANCH OFFICE Corner Pee!

Mr.Tarte has heen talking in Pari Again and getting himself criticized in \u201cthe London wewspapers.Mr.Tarts did not say anything that was really serious when it is analyzed, but he has a way of talking that is néither plain nor to the point when addressing himself to France.He makes the kind of speeches that get people into trouble, but he contrives to construct thew in such a way that he can get himself out again.It was a great mistake to have sent him to Paris, where he seems to fo et that he is really a British subject, and more than that, a British Minister, who should not say anything that even so much an sounds suspicions.Mr.Tarte seizes every occasion to declare his great Jove for France, and to insinuate that he has not lost hope of bringing his beloved province and France into clorer union.Since he went to Paris to represent Canada at the exhibition he seems to have forgotten who he is and whom he represents.Personally and privately he is entitled to hold and to express any views he wishes, but publicly in his capacity as the representative of the whole of Canada, he has no right to misrepresent the people of Ontario for instance, or to utter on their behalf sentiments which they would not utter them- selvep.This is where Mr.Tarte is in the wrong, and I think that it is quite clear how he can right himself.His speeches are objectionable because he is n Cabinet Minister: if, then, he must stick them, let him resign his office.No one will, then have cause to criticise lim, for he will then be free to follow his own peculiar bent.Now, he is bound to represent this country and not himself, or get out.It js the only alternative.The Premier should see that he accept the one or the other.=\".HERPS CONSISTENCY !

perhaps most celebrated for the dinner parties they were in the habit of fivin every two weeks during the season.Mrs.Lorrimer possessed the rare faculty of knowing exactly what guests to up together, for a large circle of acquaintances necessitated her inviting le of vacied tastes, but she managed to \u20ac them in such a \u2018way as to obtain the most\u201c joyable tesult for every one toncern

dining table with a complacent air of satisfaction that peered out of the bright brown eyes and designed smiling curves about the corner of her mouth.Ene shot a beaming glance at Mr.Lorrimer, but it was wasted, as that gentleman was engrossed in conversation with the lady on his right\u2014a Madame St.Mars, of Parie, who had been introduced into New York society a few weeks before, presumably by Mrs.Lestrange, though in reality by letters from the French Ambassador in Washington.Madame St.Mars was a remarkably beautiful woman, besides being clever and witty.Naturally enough, Mrs.rrimer was genuinely pleased that ber house should be one of the very first that the fair foreigner had graced.Mr.Lorrimer was dilating upon the excel lence of the Metropolitan Museum and enumerating its best features to his compan: ion when he was suddenly taken to task by a middle aged female whose set visage betokened irremediable epinsterhood.She was known to the world as the rich Miss Holmes, and the host and hostess as \u201cHilda,\u201d which privilege was extended to them through the bonds of cousinhood twice removed and the said Hilda's wild and unreasonable devotion to Frederick Lorrimer, junior, aged five years and some odd months.\u201cYou are leading Madame St.Mars to expect a great deal,\u201d she observed with an enunciation so sharp as to attract general attention, \u201cEven so, the Metropolitan is entitled to all the praise have bestowed upon it,\u201d retorted Mr.Lorrimer with a smilerthat revealed no less than three gold crowns shining prominently in the midst of his white teeth \u201cAt any rate it is the best we have,\u201d chimed in Dr.Halliday from the other side of Madame St.Mars for whom be was shamefully neglecting bis own partie, Miss ibsone.A - reef This young lady\u2018 wan chiefly noted for the wealth'ehe woulit inherit from her parents and for the vowel that silently clung to the end of her name.She simpered inoffensively at the conversation going on about her and occasionally broke in with a giggle for which there was as a rule no justification.\u201cIf Madame St.Mara remains here til} the summer she will have the opportunity of secing something more artistic than art in the Hudson trip.\u201d observed Mr.Harry Harrison, who removed his monocle in order to obtain a clear view of the beautiful woman opposite to him.\u201cYou forget,\u201d remonstrated Miss Holmes \u201cthat Madame St.Mars is doubtless fami- Liar with the Rhine.\u201d \u201cI love the Rhine, but I am sure I would not on that account -enjoy the Hydson trip any the less.\u201d .Madame St.Mars\u2019 English was most correct, and if her nationality was evident through the slightest of accents this.was in no sense a drawback but rather added to her charm of conversation.\u201cThere are no castles on the Hudson,\u201d admitted Harrison debiously.\u201cMuch to the sorrow of the Democratic American,\u201dadded the critical Miss Holmes, who could not refrain from flavouring nearly every remark with some of her own bitterness.\u201cBut we make up for these crumbling land marks,\u201d eaid a nonchalant looking individual of globular construction at the hostess\u2019s right; and, as everyone looked towards him for an explanation, he continued; \u201cWe have patent medicine advertise ments along the entire route.\u201d \u201cOh, Ward!\" exclaimed one of the gen tlemen to the J,accompaniment of female laughter.ot Mra.Halliday, whése seat was next his, looked somewhat disgusted as this style of humour did not appeal to her, but while she turned a cold, if somewhat thin, shoulder to her companion others welcomed the wit ticism with thorough heartiness.Regardless of the close proximity of a human iceberg, Mr.Robert Ward sipped his wine and with a serious expression quite foreign to his ruddy shining face he proceeded with his dissertation.\u201cYou can\u2019t deny my statement, for are not the proofs written on the rocks?And I boldly assert that they will prove more lasting than the castles on the Rhine or in Spain.In addition to thia they contain a wonderful amount of information as regards prolonging life and making hair grow on venerable pates.\u201d \u201cIt is doubtless very instructive, but for my part I prefer to read about such things in the papers,\u201d and the staid gentleman who gave vent to this opinion seemed: to think that he voiced the sentiments of the others.\u201cMr.Eldridge expresses it exactly,\u201d murmured Mrs.Lorrimer.She considered it a matter of duty to encourage a gentleman who seldom spoke.es \u201cI don\u2019t say,\u201d replied Ward, \u201cthat one may not find more precise information in the press concerning these matters than is imprinted on nature\u2019s rocks.For instance, we read of how Mr, Silas Green used yellow pills for loss of memory with most as tounding results which may seem like a highly coloured story\u2014green and yellow, for the benefit of those who don\u2019t see the point, for I am aware that some people are colour blind.; Bat to return to the serious subject un iscusgion) say you can rend of the wonderful effects that Dr.Old- boy's elixir had on the leading citizen of Mosstown.Six bottles renewed his youth and then he stopped for fear of getting back to the baby stage.But the worst it is that in the papers these startling cures are read of by few.It is human nature to be perverse and to scorn these things designed and petented for our benefit till some string of circumstances compels us to do so.Once we are on the string it is all right.BAE &

If there are two Machines, smash them both ! ! \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 DEPENDING OR LEAKY MEMORIES.It is as patent as possible that Laurier is devending upon the forgetfulness of the e.Ecañdal after scandal arise+\u2014blunder after blunder is made\u2014and the Government emerges from each with what grace it may, eonfident that the passage of time 12 all at is required to secure for it a tacit for- giventss.When the sound of one ia upon the air, and the people are all discussing it, tbe common verdict is that this.at all events, must bring about the defeat of the Government.And the Liberal leaders know perfectly well that the verdict is true\u2014if the elections were to come on then.But they do not give up hope.They have vast faith in the great healer.They will wait for the hurrying feet of later events to wear this damaging impression away from the public mind, and they hope to gain absolution from the fatal forgetfulness of.the busy eitizen.When the cquntry stood aghast at Lau- orier's refusal to send a contingent to South Africas, an overwhelming popular majority was ready to be polled against the Min istry.Had the elections come on then, there is no guarantee that Laurier could have elected a follower outside of Baurnsaa, - But Laurier waited, and now he is conf- \u2018dent that the Joyal people of Canada have forgotten all about the Globe intervi:w.\"The cluster of Yukon scandals have each given the Government the shivers, but they take the favourite political pill of patience; and depend upon the slip-shod memory of the average man.They vere charged with all sorts of things, and they \u2018practically pleaded guilty by declining to permit a judicial investigation.But they bad a defence, solacing, at least, to them- wselves\u2014 The elections are not coming on \u201c$o-morTow; and the people will forget.\u201d « The bye-clection scandals and the re- Juetance of the Government to allow any adequate investigation, condemned the Ministry at the moment, ns thre Ministers : well know.Nut they stood firm against the \u201c suggestions of Bir Charles Tupper for the bettering of the instructions to the Commission; for they calculated that hy the time the voting came to be done the pco- ple would have wholly forgotten what these instructions were.Bo with the Protose affair.They are facing an investigation because hey could not avoid it; though \u2018they endeavoured to render it as harmless as possible by striking out of the charges the accusations against Dr.Bor den.But they are talking of postponing the elections until next year.They \u2018probably\u2019 would prefer a time when new ncan- dals were coming to light lens numerously.It is for the people to say to how far this dependence upon their forgetfulness will be effective.The steady downpour of scandals and disgusting blunders which has characterised the last rix or eight months, has created a wide-spread attitude of mind toward the Ministry which is hardly likely to be wiped out by the common political forgetfulness of the people.When men have come to the definite conclusion that this Government mint go.they do rot forget through the lapse of time.Nothing but a redeeming record.can wipe out that decision.And, with Tarte and Sifton toming home, there is To likelihood of sich a repord being written.But till forgetfulness may do something for Laurier.if the people persit themselves to forget.That it camnot nave him is now a foregone conclesion.\"Too many men have been definitely driven by he b she On vhe taught, and, through him, all political pledge-breakers and charge-dodgers.This will be an undesirable result; end the people should remember not te forget.MR.BLAIWS METHODS.Mr.Blair has introduced\u201d into the House of Commons those methods which he found very satisfactory in the New Brunswick Legislature.\u2018The other night when Mr.Macdougall was making some very serious accusations of favouritism and mismanagement against the Minister of Railways, that gentleman coolly walked out of the House leaving the task of replying to the charges to his colleagues who were, of course, in entire ignorance of the Minster's defence, if he had any.The result was that Mr.Fielding essayed a reply, but ignored the main charges altogether and dwelt upon a few minor matters.This was Mr.Blair's custom in his provincial days when unpleasant questions arose.It did nat work very well there,and it will not do'at Ottawa.When members of Parliament, upon their responsibility as representatives of the people, make reflections upon the management of a department, Sir Wilirid, as leader of the House, should see to it that the fullest explana- tions\u2014if there are any explanations\u2014are given.He should also demand that members are treated with ordinary courtesy.\u2014méiemts THE CHINESE SITUATION.The hurrying of troops to China is no more a sign of peace than the storming of the Taku forts.That the situation can be straightened out without \u201cmilitary operations,\u201d is mow too much to hope for; and military operations conducted by an international force against so tempting a prize as a distraught and prostrate China may lead to more than peace.Put at the present moment something very like a state of war exists between the Celestial Empire and the rest of the world.The action before the Teku forts itself was enough to institute such a state; and no one yet knows what has happened behind the veil that enshrouds Pekin.It is hard for observers to believe that China.which found herself unable to cope with Japan some vears ago, has deliberately challenged the civilized and armed world to mortal combat without expecting outside support from some quarter.The Russians accuse the British of fomenting these disturbances\u2014a very likely thing when Britain was at the time of the outbreak pouring all available troopa into South Africa in a life and death struggle for her South African empire: and there are Britons who suspect Russia of encouraging the uprising.This might give her an opportunity to occupy some Chinese territory as Britain occupies Egypt: and she might be as slow in withdrawing again.But the prompt manner in which the other powers co-operate in every effort to restore order, will tend to make it difficult for any one power to take isolated action.Britain was left to go alone into Egypt; no one has heen sent alone into China.So long as it is always an international column which moves toward Pekin and an international fleet which bombards the Taku forts, we are no nearer the danger line than at any time when the various diplomats are manoeuvring before the Chinese Foreign Office.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 THE VALUE OF A PROMISE.Nothing can more lower a public man and a party than to have it supposed by the people that specific.definite pledges are like pie-crust, made to be broken.The vast majority of the people should have confidence in their public men.\u2014Hugh John Macdonald.During the provincial election campaign in Manitoba both parties promised to give the province prohibition.Mr.Thomas Greenway, who was then Premier, declared himself as an enthusiastic believer in prohibition, and when temperance deputations waited upon him he said if returned to power he would go as far as the constitution would allow in the direction of prohibition.As he had professed to be a prohibitionist during all the years he was in power and had made similar promises from time to time, but had \u2026uver done anything, bis as- aurances did not entirely satiafy the temperance people.Hugh John Macdonald did not pretend to be a teetotaler or a prohibitionist.He did not think it was wicked to drink liquor in moderation, and he frankly said ro to prohibition audiences.At the same time, he told them that as it was evident the vast majority of the people of Manitoba wanted prohibition he would do all in his power to give them what they wanted if his party should be successful in the elections.As Premier, Hugh John Macdonald has kept his promise to the letter.He still speaks as frankly as ever regarding his own views on the question.He says that in his opinion prohibition would be worse than useless in any community unless there wus au overwhelming public opinion in favour of it.He would never have promised to give Manitoba prohibition if he had not believed that there was such an overwhelming public sentiment in that province.His speech in introducing the prohibition reso- Jutions was characteristically honest and sincere.On the other hand Mr.Greenway.during the election campaign pretended to be a prohibitioniat and made promises as definite as those of Hugh John Macdonald, came out in opposition to the bill, explain ing» that all he meant by his promises during the campaign was that he would give the province prohi: bition if he could induce the Dominion Government to co-operate in passing prohibitory legislation.The speeches made by Mr.Hugh, John Macdonald and Mr.Thomas Greenway were characteristic not only of the two men, but of the two parties.The Conser- vativea are not to ready to make promises the Liberals, but when they do make a promise they try to carry it out.The pro- mees of a politician should be as reliable as a business man\u2019s promises to pay, A business man who fails to keep his promises soon becomes discredited and fails, and an honsst, truth-loving people will not Jong support a set of politicians who have become discredited: by the violation of mest of their promises.emt pps Suicide during temporary insanity was the verdiet rendered In the case of Gunner Wheatley, who killed himself at the Citadel, at Quebec.Bunday night.The.deed seems to have been most deliberately per tormed, as he removed almost all hiv cloth ng including his boots, and covered Mime pletely with ¢he bed clothes tte raser who- : YHE MONTREAL DAILY STAR\u2014TUESDAY, JUNE 19, 1900, TARTES SPEECH.What He Is Telling the People of France About Canada.A Sensational Quarre! Between ' the Minister and Mr.J.X.Perrault.(Special to the Star.) PARIS, June 7.\u2014Hon.Mr.Tarte yesterday delivered himself of one of those peculiarly unhappy epecches for which he has succeeded in building for himself a reputation.Coming from a Minister of the Cabinet, and the official representative of Canada at the Exposition, Mr.Tarte\u2019s speech was not only in exceedingly bad taste, but was of n most unpatriotic nature, and cai- culated to work much harm as spreading abroad a false impression of Freuch-Cana- dian aspirations.The occasion of Mr.Tarte\u2019s remarks waa an address on \u201cCanada,\u201d which he gave in the Canadian pavillion yesterday afternoon, at the invitation of a newly organized society, L'Ecole International.af which M.Léon Bourgeois, nn ex-Pre- mier of the Republic, is president, and M.Grayart, of the French Academy, vice-presi- dent, has been only recently formed, its abject being to take advantage of the popular interest in foreign countries which is being aroused by the present Exposition to spread a more general knowledge of the various countries of the world, their products, institutions and characteristics.Mr.Tarte, as Canadian Commissioner- General, was invited to give a \u201cconference\u201d on Canada, and this took place in the Canadian pavilion at the Exposition grounds yesterday afternoon.Admission to the conference was by invitation, and quite a number of distinguished Parisians, as well as many Cantdians in Paris, were present.HIS FLAG THE TRICOLOUR.Mr.Tarte began his address by a reference to the varied natural wealth of the Dominion, and the advantages which the country offered to the intending iramigrant from Europe.He soon, however, drifted into a politico-religious disquisition, and aroused the enthusinsm of some of his Parisian auditors by declaring that French Canada was never so French and so Catholic as at the present time, and that the inde pendence of England now enjoyed would be still further increased in the future.The tricolour, he su |.was nôw and ever would be the flag of HFrench Canada.\u201cWhen I see,\u201d said Mr.'Farte, \u2018\u2018Frenchmen emigrating to foreign countries, to the Argentine Republic, for instance, and other lands where their language and their institutions caunot be preserved to them, 1 ask myself why these compatriots of ours do not come to join us in Caoada.We French-Cepadians have remained French and Catholic for more than three centuries.We are more French.to-day even than we were twenty-five years ago.We shall always remain French.\u201d FRENCH ABOVE ALL.Continuing, Mr.Tarte said: \u201cI have frequently eard Canada spoken of as a possession of Great Dritain.I object to the term ssession.We are not a pos- pession.We possess our own present, and our future even more than the present.am a Frenchman, and 1 am a Minister in the Dominion Cabinet.The Premier of Canada is a Frenchman, and two other.Cabinet Ministers are also French-Cana- dians, Should the time ever come when it ould necessary for me to choose between being a Minister and remaining French I should remain French.This latter declaration, it will be noted is identical with the statement, couche almost in the same words, made by Mr.Tarte in Canada some months ago.Mr.Tarte then proceeded to give an ae- count of the progress of the French in Canada during the past half century, declaring that their natural increase of population far excesded that of the English speaking population.In eastern Ontario, he said, and also in parts of Manitoba, where twenty-five years ago the English were greatly in the majority the French now either outnumbered those of English origin or were at least equally numerous.Their increased prestige in Ontario, he said, was shown the fact that the present Speaker of the Legislature of that Province was a French-Canadian, Mr.Evanturel.Mr.Tarte then made this somewhat enigmatic observation: \u201cT have frequently been asked,\u201d he said, \u201cwhat would be the attitude of \u2018Canada in the event of à war tween Tance and England; would French-Canadians fight for England against France, or would their help go out to the ) land from, which they sprang.Ta this I might reply somewhat in the words of a French gentleman with whom 1 was speaking j just the other day.We were discussing t e question of a possible European war.coming to the oint of likely allies, this gentleman said fh hat if France found herself without friends she could stand alone and let Europe go her way.And eo I would say with regard to Consda-Canada could stand alone and let Europe do what she liked.\u201d There were quite a number of Cânadians among Mr.Tarte\u2019s suditors, and much i dignation was expre by them at the course of the Commissioner-General's remarks.As a lecture on \u201cCanada\u201d they thonght it was somewhat Cane.an hardly in line with what was to be expected from one who is in Paris as representing the Dominion at large.MR.TARTE AND MR.PERREAULT.A quarrel between Mr.Tarte and Mr.J.°X.Perreault waxes apace, This after noon the two gentlemen indulged in an exciting altercation in the Canadian pavilion which, if it did not result in blows, was not the.fault of Mr.Tarte.It all came pe (proue h a visit parie President Lou to the .tion during the bourse of à tout ot the Exposition grounds.Mr.Tarte and Mr.Perreault wore acting as a sort of double escort to the French President and, on ons on cither side, they conducted him the building.fore Mr.Loubet, hroush bad seen the Canadian educational exhibit, in which, by the way, Mr.Tarte tokes a special interest, Mr, Perreault mana during & moment's tion from Tn Tarte, to whisk the istinguished visitor away and out into the est Australian avilion.P Mr, Tarte was en d.As chief Cana: dian representative he did not ike, to enter the Australian section with President Loubet.and had to stand and see the latter alone with his rival Commissioner, When jr.Perreault, a few minntes later, , Mr Tarte\u2019's pent-up anger burst forth.\u201cI woul ve gou 4 to derstand Mr.Perreaul aid Mr Tartes \u201cthat I am Commi oner General.and you have to wi ord note Perreault, \u201cwould have oa mdersand that I sm also à Commissioner.\u201d .un perso \u201c 5 etes Pr ea rire roarnad fist at Parent, whith poing trans trane- Inted is ted eR ak have Mr.This.society, | M > ny even stronger.it Petréanit\u2019s did ook cies tmen k= inat tions i rebel if bo ] o ctions in ;

The best thought of Canada is against the political fraud, the corruptionist, and the ballot-box stuffer.This inspiring truth is brought home to the people by the correspondence addressed to the Montreal Star on the subject.Men of all creeds speak, and in no uncertain sound.Father Drummond, of St.Boniface, holds that laxity in the punishment of political corruption is one of the reasons why the wells of the public life are poisoned.There ought to be no \u2018\u2018saw-offs,\u201d Dr.Drummond says, and the l£w disqualifving the corrupt ought to be o rated.Moreoyer, when a man is corruptly elected, the candidate who has most votes after him should be award: ed the seat.But, after all, the great hope of reform lies in raining the level of the public conscience.\u201cGet the people to abhor corruption and the enforcement and improvement of the laws will follow.Make this merely a party cry, smd your laws, however stringent they may be verbally, will not be worth the paver they are printed on.\u201d He who would detrench the electorate > says Rev.D.Rogers, of Bluevale, \u201cshould have a taste of the medicine so recently administered to the Welland dvnamiters,\u201d Mr.J.M.Baxter, of St.John, N.B., points out that the Empire is fighting for a free franchise in South Africa to-day.If the vote is 50 precious, asks Mr.xter, as to be the subject of war, \u2018\u2018shall we he content, ns a nation, that our citizens shall consider their votes as cliattela or that the theft of a Canadian\u2019s franchise shall be deemed of less importance than the stealing of his goods?I refuse to believe that this is a doctrine to which our country will sub- scribé or that the present state of political debauchery is one which our young men will accent as an idenl\u201d\u201d Rev.Mr.Farthing, of Woodstock, in a recent sermon, rays he does not believe one party has the mononoly either of virtue or of vice, but he does believe that the enquiry into corruption should be pushed regardless of party.\u201cCorruption which has been working secretly in our public life, I fear.for some years has been making great strides of late.The forces of evil have lntely grown very bold, and have felt strong enough to come out of their hiding places and appear in daylight.No truth-loving man, no man who values his own liberty, will attempt to excuse these crimes against onr State.Thev are far more serious than crimes ngainst indivi dunls.Three men who attempted to destroy a commercial highway, who risked the lives of many people.have been zeve- rely, but not too severely.punished.The men who have conspired to rob us of our liberties\u2014for he who robs us of our ballot to-day does thnt\u2014is just as great an enemy to our country an these three, and if they ire not speedily stopped, will do more permanent injury to our country than could be done by this late outrage.\u201d Rev.A.D.Morton, of Truro, N.S, says that unless speedily checked the corruption eril will, like a canker, eat out the life of ithe body politic of our fair country.Rev.E.J.Stobo, of Quebec, calls upon both parties to stand for clean politics.ap palling, says Mr.Kemp, of T ronto.is the corruption and perjury in connection with elections.\u201cBy all means kill out the corrupt practices which are now in vogue nll over the country, even if it re quires a political earthqual ce.\u201d Rev.C.Courtice thinks the evil is in a large degree chargeable to the easy method we have of blaming the other fellow.Everybody must correct this evil near home.By Rev.Wright, of Berwick, the sacredness of Pine ballot is insisted upon aa the true measure of the virtue and intelligence of the country.Every movement made to eradicate corrupt practices should be hailed with joy by all rho are seeking the moral improvement of the country.Father Burke, of Alberton, P.E.I, speaking to his congregation of the increasing and brazen-faced corruption, maid: \u201cIt times gone by we have heard of such things as the purchase of votes, bad enough, and in ,all conscience to be reprobated, but today an organized band of dissolnte men manipulate the ballot, introduce false ones for their employers, and steal and arrange the boxes to suit their cvil purposes.A looseness in political morals, invited by \u2018elections are not made by prayers,\u2019 speeches, and readily taken up by machine-workers, is.overspreading the land.We have a representative elected by the people here formally to end a bad Government making a complete somersault and putting off for a moment its death agony.So we are brought face to face with the most pronounced brand of corruption, and it is to be hoped that all Catholics, at least, obeying the voice of the Church, will continue to reprobate political rescality as all other immorality -in their own and the country's weal.\u201d e reference to the representative who has changed his party allegiance ia to Mr.Pineau, the Prince Edward Island legislator, who in said to have received money to turn over and keep the Liberal Government of the island in power.By Rev.N.I.Perry, of St.Catharines, it is urged that voters cast their ballots for honest and capable men, thus securing for us upright and incorruptible government.Mr.D.K.Eliott, of Winnipeg, declares that\u2019 if we are to a self-respecting and respected people we must make n speedy end of the scandals end rvhete out heavy punishment lo those who corrupt, or otherwise defeat the will of the people.From Mr.Stapleton Caldecott comes the proposal that the purchasers and the sellers of votes be treated as eriminals and be sent to gaol.This great fetter, is is clear, is taking possession 0 blic mind.From the discussion salutary 1 results may be expected.The corruptionist and the ballot-stuffer will have to go.© THIS DATE 30 YEARS AGO.(From the Star Fyles of June, 1870.)

this anoyance bad been intensified as the committee had sent twelve suits to Boucher & Mercier asking what they would repair them for.In reply, Boucher & Mercier had said they would make the repairs for $3 a suit.Then, without any more ado, the Police Committee had handed over the whole of the repairs to Mr.Charlebois.Surely this was not fair and he (Ald.Gagnon) thought an explanation was needed.Moreover the repairs had been awarded without tenders being called.WOULD DO WORK CHEAPEST.Al.Lebeuf, chairmin of the Police Committee, said Charlebois had been given: the work to do as he bad been willing to do the job the cheapest.The reason why tenders bad not been called was be cause the work of repairs was $5 under the sum of , aad committees had no need to call for tenders when money to be spent was under the sum of $500.Other members of Council thought Ald.Lebeuf should Give more details as to how it had been decided to slight Boucher & Mercier when they had first n asked a what price they would do the?Tepaira.i looked as if a price had been got from this firm and then the whole matter arran with Charlebois.It looked queer, too, that the cost of repairs should come so beau- fully nesr the limit when tenders nee\u2018 not be call The Mayor\u2014\u201cI must rule that if Ald.Lebeuf does not want to give more details of the transaction at this meeting, he cannot be compelled :o do so.He has stated that the police committee was justified in giving out work under $500 without asking or tenders; this is perfectly correct.On the other hand if members are dimsatisfied; with the Police Committee,as to the giving out of the work,a notice of motion,can be given asking for further details.\u201d After some further protests as to the way Charlebois was said to have been favoured the matter dropp: Before the Council adjsurned the report of the Police Committee asking that the granting of permits of all kinds confined to their consideration, with the exception of the Mayor, was WHAT THE MAYOR COLLECTED.\" Regarding the report, the Mayor gave a short history of we hat ey been done in certain case of indigent persons who desired to sell small articles on the streets.These had been ted at a reduced rate, or for mothin 1e \"first year he had collected about fon in that manner.The se cond year, 1e à few ve wete grant- revokable at any fe.This year a ooh smaller number had been granted.The Mayor concluded by sayin: he» was benieg- ed every day by such people.Some wanted to sell ice cream for a few weeks, others desired to Jel fruit in order to make a {ivine He desired to leave the responsibility with the council.Several members spoke .on gn the subject.Aud Tebeuf laid before the council some arks, showing why the Police Commit- toe.should have ave charge of all licenses and permits;

which is a strong point in the portrayal of the handsome young Roman, soldier.The character of thé elegant Petronius was in the hands of Mr.James W.Bank- son, and his ronditionñ was one of the chief attractions.His work \\In the second act was particularly good.Here in the palace of Nero, where he bests Tigellinus, the Roman general, and gains favour with Nero, there was a quiet dignity about his work, which had a great charm to it, and was thoroughly artistic.7 \u2018Miss Linthicum mede a charming Lygla, end did her work in à palnstaking and di manner.The remainder of the character cast was In capable banda, It would be \u2018well, however, if Miss McGregor, who last evoning playcd Pop- paca, would tone her voice down a trifle.There is a sharpness about it at times which fits badly in a Roman court scene, .The play is well staged and went with greditable smoothness, considering that It was a first night.- THBATRE ROYAL., The worst thing about the Tenderloin Burlesquors, at the Royal tHis week, is their name.The show is Interesting, and some of the performers are clever.The olto includes West and McCale, Jeannetto and Shaw, Clifford Gordon, Richmond and Clements, and Rice and Harvey.A bur- lesqué on the Bapho trial concludes the performance, Next week will be the last of the Royals season, the Tuxedo Burlesquers, wi be the attraction.\u2018rue ARENA, The Robinson Opera Company opened a season of comic opera\u2019 at the Arena last night.\u201cThe Black Hussar was presented.MEETINGS AND AMUSEMENTS.THEATRE ROYAL } §™ is week | Curtaiu rises 2.30 The Tenderloin Burlesquers \u2018 PRICES\u201410, 20 and 30c.Next WeeL\u2014THE TUXFEDO CLUB.SOHME Lavigne'e Military Bana of Virtuosos, Hes: Vaudeville in Amu 100.3a:468p.m.re Hay.Évani CE eu PARK OPEN 1940 À Line.Bteamera leave Quebec Tuesdays, Wednesday, Fri.days and Saturdaye at Ba.ORONTO LINK 8teamers leave weck days at i ps en Toes days, Thursdays snd Saturdays vis Pony Clurlotte:, Mond v as er in ondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, vis Low Rutes Golng West - HAMILTOX LINE reainers ivave Mondn : and Thursdays at 7 Special low rates - nd return ko For fier Vrais ce Ponte apply to M.FONTER CHAFFEE, Ticket AFP 138 bt Ja For Freight to R.M.EWAN, \u2019 For Ire Tel.Maig 178 a Shooting The Rapids!

(Special to the Star.) WASHINGTON, June 19.\u2014The news from China is so startling and important that there is talk of the President summoning an extra session of Congress to provide the means for rasing a new army for foreign service.: The European cabinets and Japan are \u2018n correspondence as to the course they shall jointly pursue with respect to Chia.bese pegotiations are confined at this time, it is thought, to the question of means tor relieving the foreign legations in Pekin.ause of the announced independent licy of the United States, Secretary fay has not been consulted as to the measures which the three other powers urpose to take.Diplomats herg predict, uwever, that the United States cannot long maintain its present stand.From concurrent action to joint action is the only step and developments are likely to be such that this Government may bave to cast its lot with the foreign powers to insure adequate protection for American interests.All questions respecting the political future of China will, it is ieved, be laid aside until the legations in Pekin are relieved.When the International troops occupy the Chinese Capital, when the diplomatic tan- ge will have to be unravelled.If it should found impossible to galvanize the Chinese Government into Lfe, and force it to protect the foreigners and their interests, the powers are determined to divide the Empire into spheres, which their respective troops will police.Eventually these spheres will pass under the contr) of the powers.Secretary of State Hay has been notified by the Russian Em jase here that 4,000 ussian troops have n despatched from Port Arthur to Taku.pa THREE MORE REGIMENTS.NEW YORK, June 19.\u2014To meet the ex- Serdingly.grave complication that has de- velo, in northern China and in order that the United

added, were com letely destroyed and most ot the garrisons killed or wounded by a charge of the sailors of thd allied fleets.ISOLATION OF PEKIN.LONDON, June 19\u2014Judging from the German official despatches, the American ships took no part in the bombardment of the Taku forts.; ; No news has been received of the relief of the legations at Pekin, and Europe's attention is centred far less on the over whelming dig-lay of naval force at .aku than on the fate of the diplomatic staffs, and 600 cosmopolitan residents guarded by a handful of international marines within the legation compounds.There has been no mews hence since July 14.Rumours that Japan as the mangdatory of the powers will restore order in China was revived in a despatch to-day from Yokohama.Berlin despatches intimate that Germany will not object to Japan mending 18,- 000 troops while Creat Britain will endorse the plan with avidity, though perhaps only secretly.The Japanese legation in London has official information of the despatch ot 3,000 troops.In the meanwhile the British are despatching six native regiments, be- vides artillery, from \u2018India.REVOLT IS SPREADING.The revolt is spreading in

Shanghai report that à number of Chinese cruisers are anchored in sight of the foreign settlements, which are only arded by a small Japanese gunboat.À rousand Chinese troops, with two 49-ton guns,

PRESS GALLERY, House of Commons, Ottawa, June 19.\u2014 At the opening of the House, Mr.Belcourt asked leave to present the first report of the committee appointed to enquire into the emergency ration 18- sued to the second contingent.The committee asked tbat (1) it be empowered to employ a shorthand writer; (2) that its proceedings be printed from day to day; (3) that it have leave to report from time to time, and (4) that it have leave to sit when the House was in Bession.Sir Charles Tupper pointed out that the consent of the House was necessary in order that the committee be allowed to .report from time to time.Sir Wilfrid Laurier seemed disposed to dispute this, but in consultation with Sir John Bourinot, found that the procedure was wrong, and Mr.Belcourt moved for leave to present the first report.This being granted, he moved to have the first report accepted, which was done, with the proper procedure.Sir John Bourinot readjusted his eye glass and once more appeared at peace with the world.Mr.Foster had further need of drawing attention to incomplete and missing returns which were ordered months ago.YUKON WANTS REPRESENTATION.Sir Charles Tupper brought the petition from a mass meeting of the inhabitants of Dawson in regard to representation in Parliament.he Premier bad replied to a question that the Government did not intend tu grant representation until after the census was taken.He then gave notice that on going into supply on a future occasion he would move that the Yukon be given a council partly appointive and partly elect ive, snd that the Yukon be at once given representation in the House of Commons.Sir Wilfrid Laurier said that last session the Government had taken power to give the Yukon elective representation in the Yukon Council, and Sir Charles Tupper said he would eliminate that part of his motion if the Government intended to put the power into effect.Sir Wilfrid replied that the Government intended so to do, and Sir Charles said he hoped to also be able to persuade the Gov ernment to grant the Yukon representa tion in the House of Commons.COST OF PARIS BUILDINGS.Dr.Montague brought up the question of the cost of the Paris Exhibition.After a very short discussion the House had voted $115,000 for buildings, which be was informed should not have cost $20,000.He impressed on the Minister of Agriculture the necessity of supplying full information before the other estimates were asked for.Mr.Bennett, East Simcoe, again pressed for information as to whether Americans had been, or were to be, granted permission to do towing of logs between Canadian ports on the lakes.Mr.Paterson said there had been no general application by tug owners.There had been an application on behalf of the Hall Company, which was building s mill at Sar- nia.This company maid it was its intention to have one of its tugs rebuilt in Canada so as to obtain Canadian register, and express ed the necessity of its being allowed to tow one raft, which was granted.Mr.Pater son gave a pledge that each case would be considered on its merits, and no such permission granted if it would conflict with private or public interests.; The House then went into committee on the bill to amend the Civil Service Act, in which a number of minor changes were made and the bill was reported, .On the motion to go into supply, Sir Hibbert Tupper brought up the question of collecting royalties in the Yukon district, and certain irregularities brought out in the evidence before the Ogilvie Commission.The man working the most extensite claims ~the man known as the Bonanza King\u2014re- ceived extraordinary and legal indulgence.This was arranged by private correspohd- ence between Major {valah and Mr.Alexander Macdonald.To this day no reason had been given why this \u2018man, who was receiving the largest benefits from the Yukon, should be thus given an extraordinary indulgence, and as it was, the facts were only discovered by accident after Mr.Ogilvie had made his report.He read the regulations on the point, and pointed out owner was made at the risk of having his claim confiscated.Yet up to this time there had been no declaration required by the regulations by Mr.Alexander Macdonald as to the output of his claims, At this point he asked the attention of the Prime Minister, saying that it seemed to him the attitude he had assumed and that the case waa of such a nature that the Government might feel disposed to accept his position.He quoted all Major Walsh had to say on the question of royalties, and showed that except in private instructions to Mr.Fawcett, Gold Commissioner, Major Walsh had made no report as to why he granted an exception in the case of Mr, Macdonald, though he was instructed to report month- lv.Mr.Macdonald was one of the largest operators\u2019in the district.He then commented on the fact that the officials of the Yukon were given arbitrary and wide powers and vet there was no independent audit of their accounts.The Auditor-General was unable to help the Public Accounts Come mittee in these matters.He also regarded Mr.Ogilvie\u2019s action in the matter as most unsatisfactory, as he had made no proper investigation.He had not even examined Mr.Macdonald, though he was there on the ground.He referred to the letter of Mr.Ogilvie to Mr.Sifton, written on February 20, 1899, in which he referred to this as a most serious matter, as if it were pressed Macdonald would Jose his claims.Mr.Sifton had positively declined to brin down the letter last session.but it ha come down in correspondence thie year.Had it been on the table last ression the Minister of the Interior and the Premier would not have ventured to make statements in debate which they had made.Sir Hibbert quoted further reports to \u2018show that a similar delay bad not been granted to any other man.MR.WADE'S DUAL ROLE.He proposed to take up the correspondence brought down, and at the outset showed that Mr.Ogilvie had consulted Mr.Wade, Crown Prosecutor, who was unprincipled enough to give advice in this matter though at the time he was the paid advocate of Mr.Macdonald.Qu December 10, 1898, Mr.Qgilvie sent the documents to Mr.Sifton, and stated it appeared Major Walsh had remitted the royalty on Mr.{acdonald\u2019s claims, and they were now ab wolutely unable to ascertain how much Macdonald owed.Mr.Ogilvie wanted to know if there was anv information on the point in Ottatva, and if any ineans had been taken to ascertain the output of Macdonald's claims, That was what he wanted to know also and what'the country woul want to knéw.On February 17, 1809, the Department renlied that there was nothing on record at Ottawa to show what netion wan taken to ascertain the output of Macdonald's claima and the amount _collected.On the 16th of February the Mini Walsh, ister received a letter from Maj in which the latter said that .Fawcett TL More of

should be ghle to give the information.When Macdonald represented that he would be embarrassed by-having to pay, he had discussed the matter with Mr.Me- Gregor and Mr.Wade (Macdonald\u2019s counsel) and they decided to extend the time of payment for six months.On the 28th of February, 1899, \u2018Mr.Ogilvie wrote that Macdonald presumably owed the Government $70,000, on which only about $2800 had been paid.Macdonald was liable to lose all his claims, but it was scarcely fair to do so for actions of the Jate Commissioner.However, he feared\u2019 that it would have an unfavourable effect on the publie mind when jt became known.Now, ix thére over was a subject that required to be probed to the bottom it was that, On June 23rd, 1899, Controller Lithgow and _Mr.Senkler, gold commissioner, sent to Ottawa what he described as what \u201cre presents a full eettlement\u2019\u2019 of Macdonald's accounts, They were unable to say that they-had made an audit or had any satis factory basis to go upon.Dr.Montague What was the reduction?Bir Hibbert Tupper\u2014We do not know.We do not know what was due; it is simply represented as a settlement reached on what basis is not stated.| He brought up evidence to show that this period when the indulgence was granted was one of great looseness, and that no effort had been made to clear up the confusion resulting.The men who were principally condemned had never been required to give any ade uate explanations.The Department of the nterior had showed itself helpless and Mr.Ogilvie had shown himself helpless, and at the bottom of it was a private correspondence between Major Walsh and Mr.Macdonald, only part of which had been brought down.\"He ther¢{>re moved a resolution recounting the facts and setting forth that in the opinion of the House there a complete and independent audit of the accounts of Mr.Macdonald with the Government and a prompt, searching and thorough enquiry into ail the facts and circnmstances connected with the nting of an indulgence to Mr.Macdonald, ACTING MINISTER EXPLAINS.Mr.Sutherland said that last session Sir Hibbert Tupper had made a foolish and wicked r is present attack om, Major alsh was that he technically violated the law.Major Walsh was appointed under circumstanees which were well known, and a great deal of discretion bad to be given to him.What the people were interested in was that Mr.Macdonald had paid the royalty, and Major Walsh ad acted honestly.Not the slightest title of evidence had been adduced to show that Mr.Macdonald had not paid his.account to the last cent.When pressed he could not say.there was any contrary evi dence.Sir Hibbert Tupper when Minister of Justice, he had allowed a bad accourit cl 840,000 for binder twine to be incurred.In regard.to the attacks in the system of book-keeping he.pointed out that there wore great difficulties to eontend with.They had not even paper at all times and had to-use everything and anything\u2014chips.(Laughter) 20° :

facta.8 ter recesp, Mr.Sutherland resumed and contended that.Sir Hibbert Tupper had entirely failed to prove why the vote of censure should be passed.° \u2018 SOME BEVERE COMMENTS: Mr.Borden (Halifax) replied to the weak arguments of Nr.Sutherland, and commented severely on the refusal of the Minister last year to bring down Mr.Ogilvie\u2019s official letter on the plea that it was private.This session it was brought down, and there wag nothing official in it.(Applause.) Mr.Fraser {Guysborough) made the discovery that this was the fourth time Sir Hibbert had- brought up Yukon matters.He was actually applauded.when he said that Sir Hibbert struck at men,not at things.This was a sample of the alleged argument with which he detained the House for about half an hour, Sir Hibbert Tup obtained: leave to interrupt him to show \u2018that copies of affidavits made.by miners as to the value of their output were, sent to Ottawa, and there was none from Macdonald, and there was nothing to show that Macdonald had made one.Mr.Davin said that he knew Mr.Macdonald had made an affidavit, Mr.Clancy.replied, and Mr.Foster, fol lowing, placed all the facts of the case in a clear light.He dwelt on the point that Mr.Sutherland said be knew that all the rojalty\u2019 bad been paid, but when press cd for a reason said \u201cBecause I krow.\u201d There was not an account, an entry in a book, \u2018or a dacument to show how much had been paid, what had been due or was still due in this case.For its carelessnéss, the Government merited the censure of the Jouse, - Mr.Fielding defended Major Walsh's nc-' tion as a fair exercise of discretion, and said\u201d that he, as Premier of Nova Scotia, \u2018had frequently granted such extensions to mining companies through the Commissioner of Mines.He also took up the argument in regard to the fact that there was not to be found an affidavit from Mr.Macdonald, and said that the presymption Based on this that none existed was pushing the argument too far.The Auditor-General had sent an officer the Yukon to examine into these accounts, and he-was not aware of any sopdemnatory report.He referred to Mr.Lithgow\u2019s r .Mr.Foster asked If Mr.Fielding would telegraph \u2018Mr.Lithgow, and ask- him the simple question whether the settlement with Mr.Macdonald: was based on affidavits by Macdonald of the output of his mines.Mr.Fielding said he would prejer to have a full statement from Mr.Lithgow.He quoted the report, and said \u2018there was no mention of any Mr.Foster\u2014A it all at rest, ; : Mr.Fielding\u20141 do not want té depend on any eatch question.e argued that the presumption in: regard to the affidavits was the er way.The question was called at 11 o'clock, and the motion.was defeated by a vote of 33 to 69.The House then went into committee of supply.IN COMMITTEE OF SUPPLY.Mr: Sutherland read a statement from Mr.G.N.Ryley in reply to remarks made by! Sir Hibbert Tupper in regard \u2018to a re turn he had made the House respecting an option obtained by A.KH.Philp to dredge in the Yukon.Sir Hibbert\u2019s complaint was that he had made a false_return by stating that no lease had been granted whereas all along Mr.Philp had a practical lease in the form of an option, and Mr.Ryley contended that these options were never treated as leases and the rivers on which they wete given were.not marked off as leases on the maps shown to ect.rimple telegram would set WORKING OVERTIME, Fight honr lawe arn ignored thos titalcos little workers \u2014 Pri ng's Ne Tite !
