LONDON, September 26.\u2014A despatch to the Standard from Shanghai says that Chinese Officials there report that Prince Tuan has issued a secret edict in the name of the Dowager Empress informing she authorities throughout the Empire that the Court.has decided to continue the war againat the Powers at whatever cost.The edict threatens that any official who does not support the Manchus will be de- headed as a traitor, his family destroyed and the tombs of his ancestors destroyed.A despatch to the Daily.News from Pe- kin, dated September 18, says it is per sisfently maintained that the Emperor has left the Dowager Empress and is now at Ta- thung, 150 miles west of Peki ABSOLUTE - SECURITY.Carter\u2019s Little Liver Pills.Must Boar Signature of the statements made lends itself to much is available or known to be approximated.| sor in the Foreign Office CERMANY DETERMINED ON WAR.* as London Post Correspondent States THat Count Von Waldersee Will Present Ultimatum to Chinese Officials at Taku Demanding Surrender of Ringleaders of Anti-Foreign Forces.age If This Is Refused Germany Will at Once Declare War on China, Seize Wu Sung Forts, Yangtse Kiang Valley and (Special to the Star.)

Here\u2014 Results of the Matches.OLF will certainly receive au 1n- petus in this country judging frum recent deve- loprsents And the visit to this city of Harry Vaurdon.ought to place the game in ; & fur more prominent position than it has heretofore oc- eupied.This, was obvious from the attendance on the Tinka of the Royal Mont- rea) Golf Club yesterday.In the morning there was a gathering of about 400 gpectators and this had increased wonderfully in the aftermoon.It was an intelligent interested audience, too, and Vardon expressed himself as being delighted in playing before such a'gathéripg.The players were given every opportunity of displaying their skill without hindrance and every bit of good work was thoroughly appreciated, and the spectators were generous in their apulause, The two exhibitions given by Vardon were most satisfying to the general spectators, though in the morning there was a wee mite of disappointment expressed by thoee who had been around the course with Vardon on the previous dav\u2019s practice, The morning rcore of 77 did not compare well with his 73 of Mnn- dav.He proved most unfortunate in his putting.Though his driving and annroneh- ing was almost all that could be desired.One peculiar thing was that in the eight times the Plum Lane or eleventh hole, was layed for by Vardom, he landed ou the ow bunker abreast of the clubhouse just five times.This probably resulted from bia endeavours to drive across the bunker when it would bave been preferable to play safely on the smooth ground south of the railway track.There was a big improvement in Vardon\u2019s play in the afternoon and his total of 71 is a record thar will stand for some time.we best hall tallied 8], although it is conceded that Mears, Gordon Macdongall and Percy Taylor did excellently under the circumstances, nth were pnfortumate in several instances.Of course, Vardon admitted in the evening that he was \u2018 rather tired.\u201d TI» certainly has had big work and ought to feel fatigued occasionally.Plaving three matches a week is no rine- cure and the strain of playing best ball is very severe, Add to the physicial exertion the strain of entertainments and it will readily be understood what a severe task Vardon has before him in a season's work.Vardon is probably THE FINEST PROFESSIONAL sporting character that has ever visited this vicinity and his short stay here will | be remembered all the better.His quiet unassuming manner won for him many friends, and his affability made him a charming companion.His readiness to do favours is remarkable.This wae amply illustrated on Monday afternoon when after covering the cighteen hole course twice, he readily agreed to play a foresome and added to this by playing left handed.It appears that Verdon can play a rattling good game on his \u201coff\u201d side.In it 1s related of him that he bas covered courses in Sl that yuost players found difficult enough to do in 86, and playing right handed at that.It certainly is quite a feat, but even on short acquaintance one easily expects great things from this wonderful man.While on board of the train yesterday Nardon related a little incident which occurred when he was in Ireland.He and a frivnd were in the neighbourhood of Killar- ney and happening to overtake two gentlemen on the roadway when passing a golf course, asked, \u2018What are these flags in that field for?\u201d \u201cThose are the golf links,\u201d responded that gentleman.\u201cHow is that ame, played?\u2019 asked Vardon, trying to ave a little joke on the gentieman.\u201cWell, you stand by the flags and try to drive the ball into one of those boxes,\u201d 1 answered the gentleman, pointing to one of the teeing boxes.This explanation appeared to suit Mr.Vardon and his companion and the quartette proceeded along the road.Presently they met another party and when the newcomers addresse the Questioner as \u201cMr.Vardon\u201d ana promptly identified him as the great expert, the companion of the gentleman who had at- \u201ctempted to tell the champion how the game was played may be easily imagined.When on the train Mr.Cox obtained a supply of New York) Sunday papers and Av started Mr.Vardon off again.\u201cWonderful things, the New York papers, he said, \u201cwhen T get two of them it almost makes me tired to carry them.\u201d But he found interesting matter in them nevertheless.Vardon's demeanour on the course is not er whit different from that at any other ime.He goes at the game in the same ag manner, and it does not seem that ANYTHING COULD WORRY HIM.He dresses neatly in a checked knicker, golf hose of a subdued pattern, and a regatfa shirt with a neck \u201ckerchief of a colour approaching orange.No display and a serious attention to the performance of his duties ere thoroughly characteristics of the man.He enjoyed his trip to Montreal, and expressed complete satisfaction in all that WHAT TO DO WHEN SICK.In case of

off for New York last evening.AN EXPERTS REVIEW.Mr.Cox, who is considered the best golf expert in America wrote the following tech- pical review of the day's play for the Star.\u201cIn the morning round, Tom Smith, the professional of if.Royal Montreal Golf Club, and G.Cumming, of the Toronto Golf Club, beat Harry Vardon by one up.The match was ¢lose and exciting, and it was not until Vardon missed a ten-foot put on ihe last green.to win the hele, that the best ball were declared the winners.Vardon commenced proceedings by driving a terrific ball down the centre of the course.(\u2018umming and Smith both followed with good drives, and both carried the ditch on their seconds; Vardon got in a long second, but sliced it a little; Smith and Cumming both made the yreen on their thirds.Vardon was short, and his fourth lay within cight inches of the hole.Both his opponents approached dead, and holed out in tive, Vardon duffed his eight- inch put and was one down.Plaving for the second, Vardon outdrove bis two opponents fully yards and both approaching badly and overrunning three puts, took a five cach against his four and the match was all \u201cven.Vardon laid his drive to the third within ten feet of the hole.Smith puiled into the ledge and picked up.Cumming overran his approach put snd missed his third; Vardon lay dead on hia second and holed out.Vardon 1 up.\u201cAll three MADF, BEAUTIFUL DRIVES to the fourth and the hole was halved by Vardon and Cumeuny in five earch.Vardon and Smith halved the fifth in three each, Cutinnog hiding the water to the right.Vardon sliced a short pitch to the green for the sixth and was short on his approach; Cumming and\u2019 Smith both made the green and were down in three.All even.There were three perfect drives to the seventh hole, Cumming found his ball half buried and topped his brassey, jumping the bunker into the fence.Smi.h laid his bras- sev within 20 yards of the green and Vardon pitched a high med iron shot on to the green.Smith laid his mashie dead, and the hole was halved in four.They were still even, - All three men halved the next two holes, and Smith again on the tenth saved the hole for his side with another pretty _mashie approach.Playing the \u201celeventh, Vardon found the bunker with a 200 yard drive and lost the hole in six to his opponents five each.All three let out beauties to the 12th, and Vardon approached dead, holing out in three.Smith overran and then Cumming ran down a twenty foot put for a half and the best ball was still 1 up.Smith won the 13th with a well played five, Vardon being short on his approach and short again on his two puts.Playing the 14th Vardon laid his second dead and both his opponents failing to get up on their seconds, he won the Sole in three to their four.And the best ball was again 1 up.The next four holes were all halved, and although Vardon on the 17th and 18th had a ten foot put to save the match, he failed to bring either of them off, and lost e match by one hole.THE AFTERNOON'S GAME.\u201cIn the afternoon Vardon played a best ball match with Percy Taylor and G.W.MacDougall as opponents and fortified by an excellent luncheon he started out to knock records into smithereens.As the score shows he reduced the previous record for the course eleven strokes and reduced his own record of 73 made on Monday by two strokes with a bit of luck he would have undoubtedly gone below seventy, he lost a stroke playing the 14th.Calmly remarking before he drove off, here goes for e green or over the road, and playing to get a hook on his ball, he overdid it and went over the road, he dropped a hall en the tee and with his brassy - carried the brook, but the hole cost him five, again playing the fourth, he drove a terrific ball, but found a hanging lie and landzd in the brook with his second.He dropped and laid it dead, but these are instances were two strokes might very easily have been saved.Both the amateurs played a good steady game, Taylor's driving being especially good and considering that it was the first time either man had been up against such a stiff proposition as Vardon, they made a most excelient showing, no one who has not played against this man who has been aptly describe ar the \u2018Automatic Golf Machine\u201d realizes how hard it is to play \u2018against Bogey or better on every hole.and what chances a man has to take in order to try for AN OCCASIONAL HALF.Varden won by 6 up and 5 to play and 2 upon the bye holes making 8 up on the 18 holes.Too much praise can pot be given for the excellent manner in which the crowd was handled and to the behaviour of the spectators, it is not saying too muen to remark that it was the best golfing lot of women and men Vardon has played before wince he reached the American Continent.The green was in very good shape and the course in as sporty a one as any man could wish to play over, the fourth, fifth and first and third greens being especially well placed and uiring first class golf to negotiate suctesstully.\u2019 C.S.COX.THE DAY\u2019S SCORES IN DETAIL.Jorhe official scores of both matches fol- ow: MORNING.Vardon,

Year.NEW YORK, September 26.\u2014 It has long been the belief of a few-wëll informed members of the New York Yacht Club that Sir Thomas J.Lipton would again challenge for the America\u2019s Cup.This belief was strengthened last week by a few words dropped by Mr.Hugh C.Kelly secretary of the Royal Ulster Yacht Club, who was then in New York.Mr.Kelly was the guest of Mr.Howard Gould on his steam yacht Niagara on her late passage back home, and during his visit ashore he met several members of the N.Y.to more than one of whom he expressed the opinion that there would be another race for the cup next year, and that Sir Thomas would be the challenger.It will be remembered by yachtsmen that Mr.Kelly was the representative of the Royal Ulster Y.C.on board the Columbia during her races with the Shamrock, and that he made many friends while here.When Mr.Gould was asked if Mr.Kelly had said anything on the paseage over about another challenge for the cup, he smiled and remarked, \u201cMr.Kelly believes there will be another race for the cup next year.\u201d The challenging club, as is generally known, must give the N.Y.Y.C.ten months\u2019 notice to secure a match for the cup.À challenge, therefore, to meet this require ment, and to bring ahout a race in 1901, -hould be received here by the month of December.Mr.Kelly remained in New York only four days, having returned by the steamer of last Wednesday.What is Being Done on the Other Side.John Fearon writes to the Boston Herald from Glasgow as follows: \u201cAll through the preliminary arrangements which have already been made with regard to the next challenge for the America's cup, the prime movers have been influenced by a firm, am in many respects a wise, determination to avoid as far as possible giving publicity to their plans until all things are in order.e reason for adopting this policy was that the designer, George L.Watson, and the rospective owner, Sir Thomas Lipton, have both a very wholesome appredation of the task which lies before them, and while admitting that the 10 months\u2019 notice necessary under the rules of the contest is a fair enough condition, neither of them has been anxious to give any further warning of the attempt which they are planning.In the course of the preliminary arrangements it was, of course, necesrar; to take a few more gentlemen into their confidence, but the number of these was kent as small as possible, and it ie questionable whether there are at the present moment half a dozen men in Britain who know exactly how the arrangement stands.Even in the engagement of the skipper, afler Mr.Watson and Sir Thomas Lipton had agreed to put Captain Edward Svcamore in charge, he was approached and induced to enter Sir omas\u2019 service without a single definite word as to a cup challenger being raid.At the present time he ranks simply as sailing master to Sir Thomas Lipton, and his commission to visit the States was made simply in the form of a suggestion that he should go across to America and have a look at American yachting and the courses on which the America\u2019s cup contests were mailed, and ree whether he could acquire any useful information.One of the latest and most important matters to be fixed in connection with the new challenger is the appointment of a gentleman who will take charge of her during the whole time of trials and racing.No name has yet been mentioned, and cannot yet say with certainty who it is has been chosen for this important post, hut the indications point very strongly to John Jameson, of Dublin.Mr.Jameson\u2014if it is really he who has been chosen\u2014will have a position aboard equal in all respects to owner, and he will act as representing the owner in all matters concerning the ¢hal- lenge and the care of the boat.This will relieve the ekipper\u2014or ekippers\u2014of all responsibility except that pertaining directly to the nailing of the yacht.Capt.Sycamore will have absolute charge of Shamrock II., s0 far as raying when she will 53il, and how she will be miled, but all negotiations regarding races and conditions will be made v the representative owner, and he will also accept the responmibility of advising the captain in any unforseen emergency.For thin purpose it is necessary that the representative owner should be a gentleman rkilled in every turn of the game, and cool- headed enough to come through the most exciting turns with a clear idea of everything that happened.Mr.Jameson can certainly claim these class vachte for the last 20 years, and in company with his late skipper, Capt.William O'Neill.he came through rome of the keenest yachting contests ever sailed om this ride.He is a keen man and takes advantage of everv turn of chances.Mr.Jameson's smiling match it was, Capt.William O'Neill, who was mentioned 10 years ago in connection with Rir Thomas Lipton\u2019s first proposal to try for cup honours.The story was revi when the Shamrnck challenge was lodged.but Capt.O'Neill was even then ruffering from an illness which came to a fatal termination last week.O'Neill was born at Kings town, near Dublin, and was undoubtedly the finest match mailer that Ireland ever produced.He followed the sea from his earliest boyhood and was one of the few men trained in muare-rigged ships, who afterward gained distinction in the sailing of racing fore and afters.Quickcure for Scalds #m» Quickcure for Bruises 25c, Quickcure for Sprains 50.itchell, Miss Grace Stearns, Miss Beatrice J Lyman Sods & Co., Wholesale Agents

or perhaps he felt a delicacy about contradicting a misstatement which after all was only a repetition substantially of one of his own tara diddles.Nobody knows better than Bir Wilfrid that there was no similarity between the cases of the few Canadians who fought for the United Btates in Cuba or the Philippines and the Canadians who fought for Great Britain in the Transvaal.The Government of Canada did not recruit, clothe or equip volunteers to serve in Cuba or the Philippines, mor even supply them with ground dog biscuit for emergency rations.«No Canadian nced- ed the \u201cpermission\u201d ef Sir Wilfrid Laurier er of Mr.Tarte to serve the Queen in South Afriea or anywhere else: and this constant repetition of the ministerial statement that the Government allowed Canadians to volunteer for service in South Africa is a piece of offensive impertinence.The simple truth as everybody knows, is that the Government sent the Canadian \u2018troops to South Africa because it was a question of sending the troops to Bouth Africa or sending themseives into opposition.They would have sent Canadian volunteers to South Africa or to the devil rather than have sent themsclves out of office.NEVER TESTED IN A PERIOD OF ~ WORLD-WIDE DEPRESSION.Mr.Fielding is going $bout the country saying that when he first brought down bis tariff in 1897 Sir Charles Tupper pre, dicted that it would prove most injurious to Canadian manufacturers.He points to the present prosperity of Canadian indus .tries as, proof that there was mo ground \u201cfer the fears of Sir Charles, and says that the Conservatives now claim that the tariff which Sir Charles Tupper condemned is only 8 slight modification of the Old National Policy.Mr.Fielding neglects to mention two facts that should be placed side by side with Sir Charles Tupper\u2019s criticism of the tariff as first introdyced by Mr.Fielding in 1897.One of these facts is that some of the manufacturers privately complained to Mr.Fielding that the tariff would injure them, and he made & number of alterations in it, making it much more nearly identical with the National Policy than it was in the first place.It was before these changes were made that Sir Charles Tup- per made the prediction referred to by Mr.\u2018Fielding.The other fact is that Sir Charles Tapper did not know, and no one else knew, that the whole world was.about to mter upon the most extraordinary period .of commersial prosperity and industrial activity over known.The tariff of 1897, aa finally adopted, was only a alightly modified form of the National Policy, still retaining ost of the protebtive features, but if the commercial and industrial conditions in the United Kingdom, the United States, Germany, France and Belgium had been normal, the changes that, were made, although not very great, would have been injurious to Canadian industries.The Liberal tariff has never yet been tested in a period of world-wide depression.It has not even been tested under conditions of ordinary proéperity in the leading countries of the world.Ever since the Fielding tariff was passed the United States, England, Ger many, Belgium and France, the countries whose manufacturers compete with ours, have enjoyed unprecedented prosperity.They have had all the orders they wanted at paying prices; and there has consequently been no temptation to slaughter goods in Canada.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 HON.F.G.MARCHAND: In the death of the Hon.F.G.Marchand the province of Quebec -ustains the loss of a politician who had no stain on his reputation after thirty-three years of political life.As a soldier and a citizen he tried to do his duty to his country, and he will be remembered as an honourable and upright man.He was selected as leader of the Quebec Provincial Liberals at a time when the better element of the party had got the upper hand after the overwhelming defeat of the Mercier Government.JOHN CHARLTON, M.P., TESTI- FTES.The October Forum, just at hand, contains a striking article from Mr John Charlton, M.P., on \u201cImperial and Colonial Preferential Trade.\u201d It shows Mr.Charl- ton is decidedly at variance with his Liberal colleagues in Parliamgent, or, what is equally probable, that the party are fully aware of the folly of their course on the question of Preferential Trade and are simply keeping up a \u201cbluff\u201d on the subject until after the elections.Whatever the object of publishing sych an article just now, it cannot but be regarded as letting a side light in upon the Liberal views of the Liberal policy and, incidentally, there is a tone of certainty that the coming elections will see a Conservative success, which from such a source must be regarded as particularly interesting.Mr.Charlton starts in with presenting what he seems to consider conclusive evidence that no preférence for Canadian goods can be obtained in the British market.In this he has not advanced any new reasons, merely giving those which have been made use of by other\u2019 Liberal speakers and writ ers, that Great Britain will never give up free trade.\u201cIn the present state of Britain's trade in the exports of the products of her skilled labour, it is evident that a tax uptn the food of her artisans will not be resorted to.| For half a century free trade has been a cardinal feature in British commercial policy.Cheapness of production is essential to the continuance of Britain's supremacy in the business of exporting finished wares.Cheap raw material and cheap food, the latter of which is practically a raw mater ial in the production of goods, are essential to success.À tax upon either would do violence to the time honoured policy of the t free trade power, whose goods are ound in all markets, and whose Tnerchant marine performs three-quarters of the ocean carrying trade of the world.This supremacy in the export of manufactures is now threatened by the keen competition of Germany and the United States, and the struggle already in full play is eertain to become more acute.\u201cThe volume of export of manufactures from the United States has increased greatly in recent years.Already the Great Republic has practical control of the iron and steel trade in all neutral markets.This trade has slipped from the grasp of Great Britain with no prospect of its return.The intelligence of operatives, the vast aggregations of capital, and the methods of .management in the United States, in pushing trade give promise that further inroads | will follow.The manufacturing interests of the United States, if confined merely to the supply of the demends of that nation, are of vast magnitude.This market is secured to American establishments by heavy duties upon imports, which prevent for- eigh competition, and enable the realization of high prices and great profits; and surplus of production can be unloaded upon markets where British goods are the competitor, with little regard to the price received.\u201d He argues that Canadais not likely now, or will be for years to come, prepared to accept the suggestion of an Imperial Zoll- \u201cverein' embracing the admission of British imports free of duty.The loss of revenue, he claims, would be greater than this ooun- try could afford, \u201cand the manufacturing interests, which are of considerable moment, and have been largely developed by a moderate system of protection, would be severely injured by such a policy, and would probably command a sufficient amount of influence to defeat the party proposing it.\u201d Verily these be strange words! .But when he comes to write of the effect produced by the Canadian preferential tariff in favour of British imports, Mr.Charl- ton \u201cspeaks right out in meeting.\u201d \u201cThe result thus far,\u201d he writes, \u201chas been a disappointment to those who anticipated a large increase, on the one band, of the importation of British manufactures, and a decrease, on the other hand, of the importation of mañufactures from the United States.Two full financial years have elapsed since the differential rate was made 25 per cent., it baving been 12 1-2 per cent.in the year previous.In spite of this change of policy, the importation from the United States has increased rapidly; and the state of trade at the close of the year 1899 ahow- ed large importations from the United States, a large free list applicable to those importations, and \u2018a larger balance of trade in favéur of that country than in any previous year.\u201d He then gives interesting tables of imports and exports in substantiation of this statement.He shows, or the figures show, \u201cthat the export trade of Canada is not increasing so far as the United States is concertied, the value of our exports to that country in 1899 being $15,133,000, an increase over 186 of about a million dollars.and less than in 1807, when it was $49,373,- 000.During the same years the exports to Great Britain showed a fair increase, being $00,001,000 in 1800 as compared with 877,- 277,000 in 1897.Oh thé other hand the imports from the United States have increased enormously tinder the Liberal tariff, rising from $58,674,000 in 1806, to + ; = 007,000 ia |.1890; while the imports from Great Britain only increased five millions in the same peribd; \u2018and indeed the value of our imports from Mother Country in 1890 were not up to those of many of-Îhe years preceding 1895, when there was no preferéntial tariff in favour of Great Britain.The closing paragraphe of Mr.Charlton\u2019s article should be read by every Liberal elector in Canada.\u201cAs regards the preferential treatment accorded Canada to Great Britain, the results under the application of the 25 per cent.reductions for the year 1899, as relating to the United States, are that the in: creage of total imports from the United States over the previous year were 18.07 per cent.; that the increase in the importation of manufactures from the United States over the previous year was 19.63 per cent.; that the balance of trade against Canada on total exporte and imports was ,500,- 000: that Canadian farm products were well-nigh sbut out of the United States by duty fetes ranging from 25 to 100 per cent.; and that out of a total of $64,618,000 © free goods imported into Canada for consumption, the United States furnished $48, 535,000, or 76.11 per cent.This is a condition of trade matters that ought to be satisfactory to the United States.Jt can hardly be said to be satisfactory to Canada, chiefly for the reason that while she purchased 1-2 per cent.of her total imports from: the United States, the tariff of that country seems to have been arranged with the purpose of preventing the e of any of er products in exchange.Her scale of duties upon the total importe from the United States is 11.52 per cent., and upon dutiable importa for consumption 24.13 per cent., while the general rate of the United States upon total imports is 24 1-2 T cent., and upon dutiable imports 49 1-2 per cent.; \u201cThe action of the Canadian Government in advancing the differential rate to 33} per cent.is probably a mistake, The step meets with the general disapproval of the Canadian manufacturers, and there is force in the Conservative objection that the action is purely sentimental, as the British tariff presents no features applicable to ourselves that do mot apply to all other nations.It is not a.all improbable that m the event of Conservative success at the general election.now but a few months distant, the entire system of preferential duties will be swept away, \u2018unless Great Britain should reciprocate by granting preferential treatment for Canadian products in her markets, ; \u201cIn the meantime it is gradually dawning upon the Canadian mind that there is a more direct road to securing a remedy for the great disparity existing between the volume of exports\u2019 to the United States and of imports from that country than preferential duties in favour of Great Britain.As the fact becomes known that while we buy $48,000,000 of manufactures from the United Btates, we are only pre- mitted to ell $6,000,000 of our farm pro- ducte in return, this query is nsturally suggested : If the American tariff continues to bar our farm products from the markets of that country in exchange for the goods we buy, why not put our duties up to the American standard of 50 per cent., and commence feeding the operatives that produce the goods by securing the production of the latter in our own country ?Upon\u2019 the action of the United States will probably rest, in the near future, the form of answer to this question.\u201d It is gratifying to find that it has * gradually dawned upon the mind\u201d of Mr.Charlton that there is something in the Conservative policy of protection after all; and also to hear the admimion from so prominent a Liberal quarter that our manufactures have \u201cbeen developed under 8 moderate system of protection.\u201d Time indeed works wonders.What gives Mr.Charlton\u2019s views just now more than ordinary significance, is the fact that he was one of the Joint High Commission appeinted by Sir Wilfrid Laurier to negotiate reciprocity with the United Btates\u2014a negotiating party who failed to negotiate\u2014and must be regarded as the one member of all others in the Liberal party considered by them an expert on such questions as he is discussing.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 A NEW ELECTRIC LIGHTING CONTRACT.Although the city\u2019s contract for its elec- trie lighting does not expire till about 1903, the City Council, at its session on Monday, decided it would give publie prominence to the question at once.The idea was not te.put off the calling for tenders till the expiry of the present contract, as it was pointed out such a course would simply be to place the city once more at the mercy of the company now controlling this great civic franchise.\"When it is explained that the present company got the franchise, the last time it was given out, without tenders being called, it will be seen how wise is the decision of Council not to be caught napping a second time.In discussing the city\u2019s electric lighting on Monday, Ald, Ames publicly said Montreal was paying far too much for its lighting, and that, at the very least, fifty thousand dollars a year should be saved when a new agreement was made.Considering prices paid in the United States, and in many Places in Canada, the above estimate is a small one as to what the city should save, What a tremendous burden the lighting of this eity is can be realized when it is stated that the total amount paid for it every year exceeds a tax of fifty cents on.every man, woman and child in the city.For years past it has been the privilege of the city to pay $120 à year for each arc light, while many other cities pay less than $70.À pamphlet recently published in the United Btates, giving the prices maid for electric lighting of American cities, will be very interesting to our civic fathers at the present time.\u201cThe pamphlet first treats of the prices paid for are lights of 2,000 candle power, and quotes the following prices as paid in certain cities: Anniston, Ala, $75; Charleston, Va., $72; Chillicothe, O., $83; Dover, N.H., $07; Fort Madison, Ia, $67.50; Janesville, Wis, $65; Kingston, N.'Y., $83; Belleville, IN, 875; Davenpart, Ia., $56; Easton, Pa., $49.50.Figures are mow quoted to show what 2,000 candle power lamps cost when operated by municipalities instead of being given out by contract; and as will be seen, they are much below the $120 per lamp rate paid by Montreal.The figures are as follows: Aurora, Ill, $84.55; Bay City, Mich., $53.25; Batavia, N.Y., $06.23; Decatur, Ill, $48.40; Dunkirk, N.Y, $83.33, Newark, 0.es; and Rochelle, I1., $55.22 With information such as the above there should not be -much difficulty, on the part T of Montreal aldermen, in placing the city\u2019s new electric contract at almost fifty per cent.less than what is being paid at present.= \u2019 Bir Wilfrid Laurier announces that within three weeks he is going to Toronto to brand Sir Charles Tupper as \u201cvile.and despicable.\u201d Can this be.the gentleman with the sunny smile and the silver tongue, whose strong point aecording to his many admirers is his amiability and Chester.fieldisit manners!

who was in Mont- last evening, left for Quebec to-day ith His Honour rests the task of select: _ ing, at least oflicially, the new Premier, and it is expected that either Hon.J.E.Robi: doux or Hon.Horace Archambault will be called to form a new Cabinet, which, accord: ing to the constitution, has been dissolved by the death of the Premier.The Liberals in Montreal seem to have split in two camps one favouring Mr.Robidqux, and the other Mr.Archambault.The friends of the former claim that the position belongs to him by right of seniority, being the only member of the Mercier administration now in office.On the other hand, Mr.Archambault\u2019s friends state that he is the leading member of the Cabinet and that he bas shown his qualifications for leadership by the way in which he has bandled the department of the Attorney-General, which he has had in hand since May 26, 1897.Mr.Robidoux, it is generally understood, had made up his mind to retire from pot:- tics some months ago, and would have Been raised to the bench had the Senate not thrown out the hill providing for the appointment of three new judges in Montreal.t is not known whether he ie still willing to remain in politics or whether he would act only temporarily as Premier until a judgeship was recured for him.There has been some talk in Quebec of Mr.Parent becoming Premier, but the Montreal Liberals state that they insist upon the Premier being taken from this district.The old story of Lieut.-Gov.Jette resigning his office and becoming Premier and Mr.Tarte replacing him at Epencer- wood has been revived, but it is not thought probable.: .IN THE RECORDER'S COURT.At the opening of the Recorder's Court this morning Mr.Donat Brodeur, advocate, arose and proposed the adjournment of the court out of respect to the memory of the Hon.Mr.Marchand.Mr.P.J.Coyle add- el a few words to what had been said and Recorder Poirier replied.He said he fully agreed with the sentiment of the motion, and would like to nt it, but so many cases had been set for hearing to-dav and so many witnesses would be on hand that he could not grant the request.He promis- cd to adjoura on the morning of the fun- conscientious politician, he spent over thirty i years of his life in the service of his coun- ; : es 1 in the gaol for a tew days pending the fil- mg of atidavits proving special cireum- stances.\u2019 Luton Was then asked whether he had anything to say before sentence was pass.He had a few words, simply reading dis- Jointed notes from a memorandum, Had been a witness at the trial) he thought the result would bave been somewhat diflerent.He was arrested twelve months ago and had already been in gaol four months.On May 10th his home had been sold out by bailifts\u2019 sale.He was fifty-five years of age and had a wife and | child.He never speculated a dollar in his life and had never said what Coristine and Grose had sworn he had said about the proceeds of the gas shares.e referred to Mrs.Corisuine's evidence at the enquete, that she had never asked Fulton for a statement, and had frequently instructed him to do whatever he thought best.Had Mus.Coristine seen him in Boston many things would have been explained.Mr.Justice Ouimet listened patiently and then procceded to pass sentence, The prisoner had been given a fair trial and had been cleverly defended.The court had no doubt that the verdict of the jury was in accordance with the facts, as it was clear that Fulton had received at least $30,000 of Mrs.Coristine\u2019s money, Agents must remember that when they are handling other people\u2019s money they must be prepared at anv time to give an account of it.go0 many people might be in a bad position if suddeniv called upon to dy so.\u2018he maximum penalty for Fulton's offence would be ning years in the penitentiary.His Honour had received a petition from prominent citizens attesting Fulton's previous good character and praying for clemency.Under the circumstances the court felt called upon to impose what \u2018might be czlled a severe sentence\u2014five years in the penitentiary at St.Vincent de Paul.After sentence was announced, Fulton simplv said, \u201cWill Your Honour please let me see: the petition, when you have done with it *\u201d and the document was handed to him in the dock.He carried it with him to peruse at his leisure.HOW HE

DIXIE, Sept.26.\u2014The initial contests of the matches for the championships of the Royal Canadian Golf Association were commenced this morning on the links of the Royal Montreal Golf Club.After the vast gallery which was present at both of yesterday's matches in which Vardon participated, the links looked unusually quiet, There was no gallery anÇ.the players were the only persons on the links, save a few, a very few, members who sat on the clubhouse verandab.The weather was rather warm and the players were not treated to such a comfortable day as they had for the Vardon exhibitions on the previous day.Then a slight shower fell and threatened to make matters more uncomfortable.However, the rain soon cleared and left the players unhindered.The > are eighteem players in the first round so it was found necessary to bave a preliminary round in addition to the first round.i preliminary were : Messrs.H.Buddenr ead Fayette Brown, Royal Montreal Golf {lub Messrs.K.R.Macpherson, Royal Montreal Golf Club, and Mr.A.Z.Pal mer, Ottawa Golf Club.These .two matches were played this morning and in addition there was one in the first round.The Metropolitan Club's contingent arri- SENSATIONAL TURN tion here Herbert, charged with being an accomplice of Gerald Sifton In the murder of Joseph Sifton, the latter's father, pleaded gullty to the actual killing.was in the room, and upon arising, think the young man was aware of the seriousness of his position.His replied that as his client had once before ad : ; termined to stick to it.he (the counsédl) had The players drawn in this.secutor, and asked If he was pre move for sentence.Mr.Lount replied that he was not.WALTER HERBERT AGAIN CONFESSES TO THESMURDER Of Joseph Sifton\u2014Gerald Sifton, Murdered Man\u2019s Son, Declares His Innocence.TO THE TRIAL OF TWO LONDON, ONT., YOUNG MEN.(Speclal to the Star.)

The following cablegram received from the Star's special cable correspondent in London show the interest taken ther» in the future yacht race between Great Britain and Canada.When the cable was sent to the Star, it was not known in London that the challenge had been uc- cepted, because the acceptance of the chal- Icnge was cabled by Mr.J.J.Riley, the secfetary of the Royal St.Lawrence Yacht Club to Havre, w Mr.Currie is a.present.(Special by cable from the special correspondent of the Star in London.) LONDON, September 26.\u2014Lorne Campbell Currie, through the Island Bailin Club, of Cowes, awaits anxiously the Royal St.Lawrence Yacht Club's formal acceptance of his Seawanhaka Cup challenge.General fears are expressed that the challenge of the White r Yacht Club and UP CD CONL PRICES, Domestic Sizes of Bait Coal Again Advanced One Dollar a Ton.MAY BE A COAL FAMINE, Montreal Gets Its Supply by Boat and ve supply Îs Short a.Present.- 1 Domestic sizes of hard coal have been advanced to $7 per ton throw hout the city, and if the strike in the anthracite regious ofe Pennsylvania should lust very much longer the price is bound to go still higher.À month u,o stove and chestnut coat was sang throughout the city at #5.75 per ton.A matter of a week or ten days ago there was au advance of twenty-five cents ner tou by the retailers, and now there is another advance of a clear dollar per ton.The wholesale men in Montreal have is sued a circular, stating that owipg to the scarcity of hard coal, and the fact that they are unable to supply the demand, they are obliged to advance their price a dollar a ton.There seems to be little chance for a letup in the price, even if the strike was declared off.and the miners returned to work almost immediately.There is practically no surplus at the mines or in store at such points as Perth Amboy, and as a consequence the mines if they should start within a week's time would be so rushed with orders that it would be impossible to catch up before the winter was wel! nich spent.Another feature of Montreal's position i# the fact that a great share of the coal comes here in barges, and after the fifteenth of November it is hardly likely that any great amount of coal can be landed.The consequence is that the whelesalers have just about six wecks to complete their winter stocks or else get it in by rail.This would mean more money for transportation.A prominent coal man stated this morning that he doubted if there was thirty thousand tons of hard coal in stock in the city to-day, in fact he felt quite positive that the amount would not reach anything like this figure.This is thousands of tons short of the usual amount, and should the strike prove a protracted affair there will be real suffering and inconvenience before the winter is over.A strike among anthracite coal miners has always proved an unknown quantity, and the tide of fortune often turns in the most unexpected manner.The calling oul of the militia instead of having the effect of inducing the men to go back to work, has had directly the opposite effect, and to-day the men are in a better position to gain ultimate victory than they have been since they went out.Throughout the United Btates and Canada there is a clamour among all classes for arbitration between the contesting forces.This the men are willing to accept but the operators have ro far held out, owing to the fact that arbitrating under the present conditions would mean the recognition of the United Mine Workers Union.or years the mine owners in the anthracite region have steadily adhered to the policy of never recognizing any union, and if they should be brought, down to it now the condition would be unique in the history of the country.BRINGING COAL BY RAIL.The Canadian Pacific Railway Company is about to make the experiment of hauling Nova Scotia coal from St.John, N.B,, to Montreal, and the west, over its short line between this city and the New Brunswick fort.The present high price of coal af- ords a tempting prospect for the profitable sale of the Nova Scotia product, and the Will see what there is to be made out of it.À contract has just been made by the railway company with the Springhill,\u201d N.8., mines for the immediate delivery of 80,000 tons of coal at St.John.The coal will be carried from Springhill to 8t.John in barges, and will then be brought to Montreal over the C.P.R.line.The cost of the latter transportation will be very small, in view of the fact that the freight cars which are used to carry winter freight from Mont- HThere-was very little change-in-g No Change in Sentiment : garding Stocks Was ( servable To-day.TRADING CONTINUES NARROW In Consequence There Were Notable Changes in Prices.There was no change in the sentiment: regarding stocks this morning, and the\u2019 duiness was unbroken.The London mar- Let for Cunadian Pacific recovered 89%, and the lucul murket improved - to the same extent.Yesterday the markef closed at 867%.but opened at 86% and ads.vanced at the cluse to 87, so that the net.;

greatest success.There was nothing which he en ped $0 much as cracking a good joke and he had an apparently unconquerable penchant for the pun.In every movement which tended to further the interest of literature in this province Mr.Marchand was ever ready to extend a helping hand, and it seemed as if he went into this kind of work with even greater pleasure than that of the political arena.In the work of build- Ll) \\ = i THE LATE HONOURABLE FELIX election of 1867, and for the next twenty- four years, until 1890, he was returned at each general election without opposition.In 1890 he had an opponent, but he was elected.He was appointed Provincial Secretary and member of the Executive Council in March, 1878.One year afterwards he was appointed Commissioner of Crown Lands, and this office he held until the fall of the Joly Government in 1879.He was elected Speaker of the Legislative Assembly in January, 1887, and re-elected in 1880.On the fall of the Liberal party in 1891 he was called upon to take the leadership of the somewhat shattered forces.He did so without hesitation, and succeeded in re-or- ganizing the party.As a result of the elections of May 11, 1897, which brought the Liberals into power, Mr.Marchand became Premier of the province.\\ RESIDED AT ST.JOHNS.Mr.Marchand resided at St.Johns for over forty years practising his profession as a notary, in which profession he occupied a leading position, having been honoured some years since by being elected President of the Board of Notaries.At an early age he drifted into politics and at Confederation was elected to the Legislative Ansem- bly and continued to occupy that seat for more than thirty-three years without interruption.It is only a couple of years since that Mr.Bourassa, who represented the same county for over forty years in the Canadian Assembly and House of Commons, faced away to the great majority.While Mr.Bourbassa was the doyen at Ottawa, Mr.Marchand filled a similar position at Quebec.As an evidence of the high esteem in which Mr.Marchand was held it will suffice to say that he was returned for his native county on nine different occasions.Mr.Marchand had no enc- mies in his private or public life, a fact which very fo ublic men can boast of.Though a staunch Liberal throughout his career he was a moderate, conciliating man and no French-Canadian in the Provincial political arena was held in higher esteem v the English-speaking Protestant pu- lation of this Province.When the Liberal party needed to be defended before an English-speaking Protestant population in this Province an effort was always made to secure his presence and he was always certain of a respectful hearing.It was in the Eastern Townships, especially in the countigs of his own district, that he had the largest number of friends and admirers among all classes and creeds.After the crushing defeat of the Liberal party follow- jug the downfall of the Mercier Adminis tration and the subsequent withdrawal from further life of the late Hon.Honore Mercier, the selection of Mr.Marchand as his successor was the only rational step which could be taken.Following a stormy period in which the atmosphere was loaded with scandals and charges of scandals and public men seemed to have nothing but charges to hurl at each other, it was a relief to the people to hail the advent of Mr.Marchand who throughout his entire career had earned and deserved the proud distinction of being \u201can honest man.\u201d Mr.Marchand had not the briltiant parts and magnetism of his dashing predecessor in the Provincial leadership, but he was deemed a Yafe man and it was as such that he led his party back to power.Though by no means eloquent and making no pretence of being an orator, Mr.Marchand was a pleasant and correct speaker who invariably scored the point which he had in view and his English was as pure as his French.His task when assuming the leadership of his party in Opposition was by no means an enviable once and this position was hardly improved when he became Premier.but there is no opponent of the dead Premier but will admit readily that he meant well, ° that he was sificere in his efforts to improve the standing of his Province whose interests he really had at heart.When the heat of party strife shall have passed away it will be realized that he was one of the best public servants which this Province has had.The English-speaking Protestant population, especially\u2019 thbse who were in a position to know him intimately will giadly declare that he was a true fricnd of justice and fair play and: that none did more than he to bring about a bonne entente among the various nationalities in this Province.No fair request of the Eng- ligh people was ever overlooked by him.DEVOTED TO LITERATURE.If the Liberal party feel that they have sustained a lors in the death of Mr, Mar- chund, his death will alio be keenly felt in the ranks of litterateurs, for he was a devotee of literature in all ite formas, In ing up the history of the province, raving mteresting mementos or putting up monuments to those who had figured prominent- On the occasion of the inauguration of tb monument to Samuel de Champlain at Quebec two years ago, the Premier received the decoration of the Legion of Honour of France through the Consul-General.The late Premier's eldest son is Mr Gabriel Marchand, a practising advocate at St.Johns, Que.and publisher of \u201cLe Canada Francais.\u201d Aa stated above one of his daughters is Madame Dandurand, chief Lady Commissioner at the Paris Exhibition and a

matter of selecting a successor to the late Pfemier Marchand, and bas given no indication of what his first step will be.His Honour was notified last night of the Premier's death by telephone immediately after it occurred, by Gus Grenier, Clerk of the Executive Council, aéting also on behalf of the family of the deceased, \u201cbeing himself a son-in-law, \u201c_ Fo lowing the custom usual

to be difficult, and it mw thought the personndl of the new Government will not differ much from that of the moribund one.The new Premier is likely to be the Hon.J.E.Robi.doux, late Provincial Secretary.Quebeckers would much like to see Mayor Parent nelect- ed, but have now generally realized that the office will go to Montreal.Late Attor- ncy-General Archambault has been promin- .ently

The way was only a trifle wider than the usual shecp tracks which traverred the moor in all directions, ana was lid with white pebbly sand, which shone in the light.Every now and then a curlew arose with a shrill acream, and several times Stephen\u2019s footfall dispersed a covey of grouse, which rose up from the heather crying the best advice the birds could have given, \u201cGo back;

yet he had no definite work or engagement to call bim away.He tried seat after seat under the pretence to himself that ench in turn failed to satis fy his idea of comfort.At last Coutance had to give it up.He must try something else.& he walked fo came into his Charing Cross and climbed the steps to the National Gallery.That picture-lined edifice had never vet failed find\u2019 the painter solace, comfort and company.But it failed signally that Monday afternoon.His mind was jaundiced with joy.He was colour-blinded by Caroline Wrottis- ley.It was a terrible confession to make, but that day.at any rate, our national collection of pictures, of which we are justly proud, seemed to Coutance as dust and ashes.How thankful the painter was when the doorkeeper came to turn him out! The Gallery was closing ifs doors for the night.Dinner time found him alone.Storey had not come.Coutance felt hurt.He had meant to victimize bis friend by talking Caroline to him the rest of the evening.Perhaps prescient of this, Reginald Storey had, very discreetly, stayed away.On t ay morning Coutance rose early.He had not slept much, and what little aleep had come to him had been of a troubled character.He had longed for the morning, and now tht the morning was come, instead of brigutness and hope there were heaviness and depression\u2014a wense of impending disaster, which was foreign to his nature, and for which he could n t account, Long pefore pen § clock Contance, was pacing Ha, ne Place.t struck him Sooke that No.d different from the rest.The windows were not thrown open to catch the freshness of the September air.Maids all the-way down the Plice were engaged b sconscnt in polishing up the steps and work about the doorts.At No.7 the customary activity of that hour of ihe day did not obtain.Tt struck the painter as singular;

and to sce if they would not in the general interest of the sport, release the Roval St.Lawrence Yacht Club from any liability in the matter and give it a free hand to do as it thought best.Then the work of Mr.J.J.Riley, jr.the secretary of the club, began.A frank letter was written to both the White Bear Yacht Club and the club from Black Rock Harbour.explaining the situation, vet at the same time giving them to understand that if they Éd on the letter of the agreement, the Royal St.Lawrence woul ABIDE BY THEIR DECISION.The letter incidentally referred to the interest which such a race as wroposed would create in the sailing and building of this particular class of boat, and cited the great changes and improvements which had been created by the International races for the America\u2019s Cup.In each case the reply was most courteous and considerate.In each case the club regretted for its own sake, that such a challenge should have come in the year when each was most anxious to measure designers and boats and sailors with the Roval St.Lawrence Yacht Club, but each at the same time recognized that such a chance as the present should not be neglected under the circumstances, and begged that Mr.Lorne Currie\u2019s challenge, though it was a day late, should be treated the same as their own, and that the Royal St.Lawrence Yacht Club should take such action as they considered best in the interest of the sport.Both requests the Roval St.Lawrence Yacht Club to remember, however, that if the CHALLENGE FROM GREAT BRITAIN.should fall through, they would be just as anxious as before to com In view of all this, the Beitiah challenge was accepted without a dissenting voice.The challenge has been officially backed un by cablegram and letter, by Mr.Herbert Whyatt, recretary of the Island Sailing (Club of Cowes, and the challenger is Mr.Lorne Curric.of Havre, France, secretary of the \u201cSociete des Regates du, Havre,\u201d member of the Royal Northern Yacht Club, and of the Island Sailing Club of Cowes.He has agreed to have the races sailed some time in July next.rat WOMAN'S ART ASSOCIATION.The Montreal Branch of the Woman's Art Association have an interesting programme drawn up for the coming winter.Art lectures of a high order are promised, and the standard of such lecturers as Professor Capper, Rev.8.Barnes and Fraulein Stolle will be maintained.The life model drawing class will meet at the studio early in November, and the first of the regular fortnightly meetings of the art reading class, with Kerry as convener, will be held at the studio on November 3.The first general meeting is called for Tuesday next, And, as formely, the regular monthly meetings will be continued.when short art papers, Îllustrated by photos, sketches or pictures, will be read by members or others, followed by a soclal haif-hour and tea.The out-of-door sketch class closes with a more successful season\u2019s work than any previous year.The bfficers.for 1900-1908 are: President, Miss M.M.Phillips;

and in the buying and selling of goods.in railway office, stock exchange, and the editor\u2019s chair, men are needed who have broad views, keen insight, and an enterprising spirit.A LESSON FROM GERMANY.\u201cPerliaps the chief reason why Germany has of late years made such inroads upon British trade is that the manufacturers and merchants of that country have understood the value of general and special training in preparation for business life.The German Realschulen and technical schools have Justified their existence from this standpoint alone.\u201cA business man is a specialist, and ought to have the training of a specialist\u2014a good general education, a special knowledge of the busigess world.and the laws of trade and an expert's knowledge in his own particular line of work.A practical business training is indispensable, but is not of itself sufficient.Such a training is necessarily conservative, based upon the experience of generations.Business habits are invaluable but they often hamper, restrict and confine, preventing the adoption of new methods and expansion along new lines.\u201cBusiness principles are too often mere rules of thumb, based upon a limited experience.automatically adapt to a narrow environment, involving no insight into the laws of the industrial world, and no capacity for change with the changing times.The business man is often admirably suited to his environment, and were the environment not subject to sudden and radical changes it is conceivable that a race of business men might be developed ar much in harmony with the economic world and as happy in their native element as a fish in the sea or a bird in the air.But the business world is subject to constant change, and the business man who cannot in some way anticipaté the changes and adapt himself to them is sure to te selected for destruction and thrown out of the way as one | unfit to survive.\u201d A JUDGMENT.\u2014In the case of Octave Vien, against the estate of the late Rev.Abbe Pierre Leduc, for £1,332, for board and attendance on the late gentleman during his illness, Mr.Justice Langelier this morning granted judgment for the plaintiff for $306.62, : ! arided \"Der intention bent CONNERS WILL GO OX Buffalo Contractor Says He Will Begin Elevators Next Week.CONFERENCE WITH THE BOARD.Thinks With Foundations Completed He Can Work Through the\u2018 Winter Season.After months of inaction,/so far as material results in the port of Montreal are concerned, Mr.William J.Conners, bead of the Conners\u2019 Syndicate announces that he is prepared to go on with the construction of the elevators and storage warehouses, according to the plans and specifications agreed upon, and that he will pre- cecd with the work within a week\u2019s time.At the meeting of the Harbour Board yesterday afternoon the following letter signed by Mr.Conners, was read: .\u201cIn accordance with the expressed semti- ment at the meeting of your honourable board, held on the 11th inst, that we make a definite report upon this date relative to the terminal structures for Windmill Point pier.1 bave much pleasure in notifying you that we will begin assembling material at once, and commence the work of coustruc- tion next week.We will press the work to completion as rapidly us.it can be done.We thank the board for the patience and consideration shown us up to this time.\u201d When Mr.Conners, who was accompanied by Mr.G.T.Smith, his representative in Montreal, had been admitted into the room, the president of the Harbour Commissioners informed him that his letter had been read and asked if there was any verbal statement that he would like to make before any of the commissioners asked him questions.MR.CONNERS IS CHEERFUL.Mr.Conners replied that all he had to say was contained in the letter.He would go on and complete the work as soon as possible, breaking ground the coming week.Mr.Torrance wished to know how much work they expected to do before the winter weather would stop them.To \u2018this, Mr.Conners replied that they would probably be able to finisk the foundation, and if this was the case they could then go ahead with the work of construction throughout the winer, without interruption.In reply to Mr.Crathern, Mr.Conners said that all those who were associated with him when the application was made were still connected with the scheme, except Mr.Rogers who, it would be remembered withdrew some time ago, before the agreement was signed.The Mayor\u2014*\u201cWe are satisfed; we want you to go on, that\u2019s all\u201d In conversation before the meeting Mr.Conners said that one of the elevators at Duluth had been constructed in the winter time.This was an elevator built from the plans of the firm which had the present work in hand, and he saw no reason why he could not go on throughout the winter without interruption, provided he could get the foundations in.HARBOUR PLANS AT PARIS.A letter was read from Mr.J.X.Per- rault, Canadian commissioner to the Paris exposition, stating that the harbour plan had arrived in good condition.He desired to know if the commissioners would like the harbour plan to be sent to the Glasgow exhibition, and if so to let him know at once, so that it could be sent free of cost.It was decided to send it on.To the Harbour Improvement Committee was referred a letter from the Civic Health Department accompanied by one from the Minister of Agriculture.The former intimated the willingness of the department to place at the commissioners\u2019 disposal, one of its officers to supervise the measures necessary to do away with the rats that infested the wharf.The communication from the Minister of Agriculture offered to supply the neceæary poison.FLOOD PROTECTION WALL.The question of inserting in the flood protection wall, opposite the Harbour Com- miesioners\u2019 offices, a tablet commemorating, the erection of the wall, was referred to the Harbour Improvement Committee, with power to act.The Finance Committee reported having paid pay-sheets amounting to $32.183.92.and accounts of $25.374.19.In the case of Dan.Brosæau, oneof the Harbour Commissioners\u2019 sweepers, who was accidentally drowned a few weeks ago while at work, it was recommended that his widow be given a gratuity of $50.The report was adopted.GRAND TRUNK TRAIN-MASTER.X.H.Cornell, trainmaster of the Indiana, Illinois & Iowa Railway, has been appointed to a similar ition in the 25th district of the Grand Trunk Railway System, in place of C.S.Cunningham, who has been appointed superintendent of terminals at Port Huron and ia Mr.Cornell is well known in Montreal, having been stationed here @s trainmaster on the eastern division some years agn.James M.Herbert, who has been superintendent of the eastern division of the.Grand Trunk for some time, left yesterday for Ossawatomie, Kas., where he will act as superintendent of the Missouri Pacific Railway at that point, having charge of the line between Kansas City and Pue- o.Mr.D.MeNicoll, general manager of the Canadian Pacific Railway, left Montreal yesterday for Toronto, and will make \u2018a tour of inspection over the lines to Ontario.returning to Montreal the last of che week.\u2014\u2014\u2014eriem\u2014pà-\u2014 WILL GIVE ORGAN RECITAL.To give visitors to the Diocegan Jubliles Festival an opportunity of hearing the organ In St.Georges\u2019 Church, Mr.P.J.Illsley.the organist of.the church, has arranged to give an organ recital on Tuesday evening, October 18, at 8 o'clock.Vocal solos will be rendered by Messrs.BE.A.Burke and A.K.Fisk, and the follow organ pleces will be played: 1.Marc Triomphale, E.Silas ;

guard, C.Council, John Kane, J.D.OH, There was another squabble now between the lawyers as to just how questions should be put, and more protests from the committee against these fruitless bick- erin es.Having another chance to continue, witness said he had had no agreement with Mr.: Charlebois, or any one else, for them to act as \u2018\u2019go betweens,\u201d between himself and Naud as to the purchasing of promotions.Had never sald that other members of the department had d for promotions.Was sure that from the way the cupboards were placed the men, who had been placed in them by Naud, could not see him, witness.Taking up the horse question, said that he had asked Chief Benoît if he could feed a horse at the expense of the city, and the Chief had sald he could.The horse n doing work for the corporation.The animal originally © had been bought by witness.Witness had also purchased other horses.Ald.Lavalleec now asked witness to give the names and locations of certain sta: tions in the city that he had been compelled to visit, and which had necessitated him having two horses instead of one.\u2018Witness had been answering for some time when Ald.Ames hotly protested against such evidence, saying it was too bad the city had to pay stenographers\u2019 fees for it.He concluded by =aylng: \u201cI do not thing the city should have to pay for the ignorance of Ald.Lavallee.\u201d ALD.LAVALLEE GETS ANGRY.This made Ald.Lavallee =ay that he would expect Ald.Ames to withdraw such statement, and finally, it was withdrawn.\u201c1 meant no offence,\u201d sald Ames.Witness was now put to a long cross- examination by Mr.Leblanc, but pract)- cally no new evidence was adduced.The cross-examination was largely about patents, and was meant to show that the 1l1-feeling between Naud and Dubois had been the outcome of dickering with patents for fire department.SOME POINTED QUESTIONS.It was long after eleven and the meeting was about to adjourn when Ald.Hart put some pointed questions to witness as to his horse transactions with the city.After witness had stated that he had only loaned horses belonging to the corporation to military men, Chairman Hart said: : \u201cNow, was that all?Exramine yourself well, and see if you cannot recollect something elso 7\u2019 The witness shook his head.\u201cChairman Hart\u2014Did you not take two horses with a load of lumber out to the Back River onte ?\u201d The witness\u2014\"Yes, I remember that.\u201d \u2018Who gave you that lumber ?\u201cCaptain Doolan.\u201d \u201cHow many men did you keep out of the station for that purpose?\u201d \u201cOnly ono man went with the load.\u201d \u201cDid any men go oùt thera to Cartier- ville to do any work for you ?* \u2018Yes, two firemen went out to build a witness \"sidewalk on my property.They were on their holidays\u2018 I hia that lumber belong to Captain Doo- an ?* \u2018\u2019He got it from a contractor.It was old stuft.\" \u201cDid you not sell a corporation horse once and make $50 on it?\" \u201cNo.\u201d bo » \u201cWas there not a chestnut horse bought in 1897 for $150 by the corporation 7 \u201cYes, I know there was auch a horse.It was swapped, I think, by Chief Benoit with Ald.Kinsella for a mare.I then swapped the mare for another horse, which killed.\" Was , \u201cDid you not make $50 by that transaction 7** \u201cNo.\u201d Ald.Ames\u2014Did you ever not needed by the corporatio The witness\u2014\u201cI did, at my own expense.\u201d \u2018Dla you ever buy a saddle for your buy harness n 7 horses with corporation money 1\" \"No ;

\u201cThe swing of victory is in the alr\u201d wus one of the catch phrases of a leading Liberal newspaper in Ontario during the last campalgn, and at the great Liberal- Conservative mass meeting in Massey Hall, Toronto, Mr.Foster neatly adopted it to the present struggle, ; The swing of victory Is certainly In the air If public meetings are any criterion of the trend of public sentiment.Sir Charles Tupper's political etzTping tour in Ontario was a brilllant success, judged from every standpoint, the numbers which attended, the enthusiasm and receptiveness of the audiences, the spirit displayed, and what ls, perhaps, most important, the willingness, even eagerness, of Liberal-Conservatives everywhere to do what the occasion requires of them.The rank and file of the party require no spurring of their zeal, they are ready and anxious for the fray everywhere.Mr.Foster made no more striking and significant remark in any of his wonderfully impressive and telling speeches than when he pointed out that the leaders did not have lo \u2018see\u2019 the Conservatives ant the various centres.In other words, there were no tangles to he straightened out, there were no obstreperous ones to be whipped into line, no famlly jars to be adjusted and personal griefs to be assuaged, and personal, as opposed to party ambition to be placated.The party is united, and the humblest member is ready to do what he can for the cause.The task of the leaders is therefore, an easy one.LIBERAL HEART-BURNINGS.It is an open secret that {t was not ever thus, and that it is not so now among the Liberals.A notorious instance is that of West Elgin.Even with the ald of the machine, which polled 162 ballots, when only 152 delegates were present, the Liberal convention was unable to decide upon a candidate, and it had to be adjourned for a week.One heard it freely stated that Mr.George Casey, M.P., would not get the nomination, and, even if he does, that it will be impossible to reconcile the vary- Ing elements.West Elgin, therefore, will be all the easler for the Conservatives to redeem.In East York also there is great dissatisfaction because Mr.Rowell and not Mr.Peter Ryan got the party nomination.1.William Mulock, is given the credit for this result, but it has had for effect, the estrangement of Mr.Ryan's friends and the Irish Catholics, who feel that they are not properly represented in the Cabinet and the party councils.Mr.Rowell, too, calls himself a\u2019 \u2018Mackenzie ldberal,\u201d whatever that may signify in these days of \u2018new Liberalism.\" One cannot go throug® Ontarle without being impressed with the fact that there are & large number of more or less staunch Liberals who are dissatisfied with their party and their \u2018new Liberal\u201d Government.Besides these are many men whose party affiliations are not of such a binding nature that they can be safely counted on by either party, except they belleve that party to be in the right.I have not heard during five weeks\u2019 travelling about Canada of one of theee unattached men who has come out In favour of the present Government.There are many Conservatives, too, who voted for the Liberals In 1836, and they will never do so agaln, at least not in 1900.An Ottawa paper tells of a commercial traveller who commented on the apathy of the rank and file of the Liberals as the most striking feature \u2018of the present contest.I was sitting at dinner in a Toronto hotel, when five commercial travel- Jers were discussing every topic under heaven, as is their wont when the day's business is over.\u201cWell, Jack,\u201d sald one, \u2018\u2018you have done nearly all Canada now, what do you think of the prospect of the elections?\u201d \u201cThere are only twn parties,\u2019 replied Jack, with a most judicial air, \u2018and one of them must win.If the Conservatives do not.the Liberals will.\u201d Jack is certainly a diplomat, and that his purpose was to avold a political discussion was shown by his branching off at once into a racy account of certain of his experiences.He had expressed his opinion as to the win- however.On another occasion, two ner, ) men were discussing a certain Liberal member and the excuses he made for the course of the Government.I told him, said the one who was speaking.I did not blame them so much for doing what they dla, but I did blame them both for being blankety blank liars.THE LIBERALS BROKEN PROMISES.I have hefore remarked that it was one of the most noticeable features of \u2018he campaign that the moment a speaker came to the question of the violated pledges of the Liberals he struck a responsive cord.In the way Hugh John Macdonald put it before the electorate, it seemed as if he were preaching a new evangdi, when he laid down the proposition that pledge and confidence should be as strictly observed in political life as in private and business concerns.He never failed to obtain the most responsive hearing and elicit hearty applause as he proceeded to develop this point.Then when Mr.Foster demonstrated step by step that this Government had broken every pledge and violated every principle which they professed In order to gain power, one could see that his words struck home, and every utterance was approved of by his auditors.His appeal to the electors to force public men to respect them by respecting their word, and if one party failed to do so turn it out; then !f the next did no better turn it out also, was one which It was evident made an impression on the audiences.It ls one no only in this but In future elections.It is clear that the people recognize that the Liberals have not kept the falth In any single respect and they are angered thereat.THE DIFFERENT POINTS VISITED.Sir Charles and his two lientenants, Mr.Macdonald (Hugh John that Is, for it ls as such that he ia almost always referred to) and r.Foster spoke together at 12 meetings._At Collingwood Sir Charles did not appear, as he had gone there for the non-partisan purpose of opening the Fair and Mr.Macdonald took in a rally at Brampton and the East York convention and the opening of Watford fair on Thursday last, while Mr.Foster spoke at Brant- ford on Saturday and did not appear at Stratford.Sir Charles made-foufteen public spseches, and at twelve of these both him.The great trlumverate they Wwe called by some of the Ontario papers.From the first meeting to the last there was not one which was not a success.The weather was beautiful throughout, except that the day was dull and cold and the roads execrable for the opening meeting at Alexandria.At Guelph also the day was a trifle dark and cold.Nevertheless the audience at Alexandria was good, both as to numbers and its sympathetic tone.It was here among his \u201c\u2018brither Scots\u201d that Hugh John put the query, \u201cWha'll be king but Charlie?\u2019 which has established its position since among the catch phrases of the campaign.At Napanee, the meeting, which was held in the open air, was an excellent one as to numbers, and one could not desire a better gathering as to attentiveness and responsiveness to the speakers' arguments and appeals.Mr.Urlah Wilson, the present member for Lennox, seems to have excellent reas for his confidence that Lennox will again throw its weight with the Conservative and constructive party.His opponent is Dr.R.A.Leonard.Mr.J.W.Bell, M.P., has for opponent in Ad- dington Mr.W.A.Martin, but Mr.Bell's friends are cdnfident.Belleville 15 tiome of Harry Corby, M.P.for West Hastings, and he is

determined to wrest East Hastings from Mr.J.Hurley, M.P., and In \\Vest Hastings a Liberal candidate will be put up against Mr.Harry Corby for policy's sake.Mr.G.O.Alcorn, Q.C., is the strong candidate of the Conservatives in Prince Edward agalnst Mr, W.V.Pettit, the Patron member, who has thrown off Sir Richard Cart- Wrighls mask and accepted the Liberal nomination.In Northumberland, r.Ed Cochrane, M.P.is as solld as he has been for twenty years past.When the leaders arrived at Brighton they were presented with an address and to make speeches in reply, something not on the programme.The meeting at Cobourg was a representative and sympathetic one.Among the humours of the tour was Mr.Cochrane's fam- nus appeal made here to the ladies.He called on the young ladies not to allow thefr lovers to remain long when they called unless they promised.to vote Con- Servative.It ts not the first time the ladies have held the future of the country in their hands, he declared.\u2019 As a demonstration and a welcome, nothing could curpass that extended by Port Hope the same evening (Saturday), but from a political standpoint the meeting was marred by being made too much of a society event, as it were.Hundreds of electors could not get in to hear the speeches.Whoever gets the Conservative nomination will carry East Durham, said one who has means of knowing the coun.ry.THE McCARTHY STAMPING GROUND.At Barrie and Collingwood, the home of MceCurthysim was invaded, but McCarthy is dead.His uncle's nephew now represents the County of North Simcoe by virtue of the name.At the last election the battle lay between him and a straight Conservative, and Mr.Leighton McCarthy won.Since then Mr.McCarthy has shown himself to be a new Liberal.and could not even bring himself to vote agalnst the Government on the emergency food scandal.\u2018His coat-talls were at right angles with his body,\u201d when the bell rang for the division, was the way Sir Charles expressed it.\u201cHe took his whole party with him,\u201d sald Mr.Foster at Collingwood, and ke could not proceed for a space owing to the laughter.In fact, it 1s said Mr.McCarthy hopes to get the straight Liberal nomination.\u2018\u2018In that case he wih be beaten,\u201d said a man with whom ! conversed at the Col- lingwood meeting.\u2018\u2018for Simcoe is Conservative.\u201d Mr.Cameron is popular, is a man of position In Collingwood, and is supported by the Enterprise and other influences which were on the side of Mc- Carthy at the last election.The meeting In Toronto at Massey Hall was a most remarkable political demonstration.The crowd, which filled every corner of the immense theatre, was as intelligent, discriminatively appreciative and as receptive as any orator could wish to appear before.It represented almost every class in Toronto, and it was enthusiastic in its reception of Sir Charles and his two lleutenants.That it was composed in considerable part of Liberals was shown by several interruptions, and objection being taken by a portion of the audience to cer- taln remarks of the leader of the Opposition about the Premier.The indications of public feeling in regard to the master of the administration and his policy on the contingent matter and subsequently In Paris were clear and unmistakeable.This meeting was held in the same place, and composed in no fnconsiderable part.doubt, of the same people who refused tq glve Sir Charles Tupper a proper hearing four years ago.The change in this respect certainly reflects public opinion.On the previous day a most successful demonstration and public meeting were held at Guelph, which is the principal city in South Wellington.Mr.\u201cChris\u201d Kloepfer, the Conservative member, wrested this county from the Liberals in 1896, the first time it had been carried In years.He ls a manufacturer, with large Interests in Guelph, and a German-Canadian who Is almost universally popular.His opponent is Mr.Hugh Guthrie, a young lawyer, who is backed up by his father's influence, and who is making a house to house canvass of the riding.The struggle will no doubt be a keen one.but all the signs are most hopeful for Mr.Kloepfer.At Tara and Wiarton, In North Bruce, excellent meot- ings; both in respect of numbers and of en- thuslasm, were held in the Interest of Mr.Alexander McNeil, \u2018the father of the Empire,\u201d and the most courtly ntleman in the present House.He is belng opposed by Mr.J.E.Campbell, a druggist, but the opposition cannot be very seriously regarded.At Strathroy.In West Middlesex, the leaders were in the camp of the enemy, and thelr reception left nothing to be desired.The only trouble was that the opera house was not large enough to hold all who wished to hear them, and Hugh John Macdonald, who arrived late, having opened Watford fair, was compelled to address an overflow meeting In the public square.At Stratford on Saturday night last the series of meetings was brought to a closé by a magnificent rally, which left nothing to be desired In any sense.r.Alex.MeLaren's popularity needs na demonstration, but the meeting and the warmth of his reception was certainly a tribute to It.He is belng opposed by a r.Goetz, a German-Canadian, but Mr.McLaren numbers as many personal and political friends among the Germans, who form no (nconsiderable portion of the population of North Perth.as with the Eng- fsh people, and his Fe-election is almost a foregnne \u201ctonclusion.LIBERAL MEETINGS SMALLER.As before mentioned, all these meetings were attended by large audiences.It has not been so in the Liberal meetligas held in the west.The present opera house in London is a small bullding, and the largest estimate have seen places the number present to hear 8ir Richard Cartwright at 100 persons.A London newspaper man says that a member of a London newspaper's staff, by actual count, placed the number at He might have been 5 out elther way.but the net result Is the same, Mr.A.Fisher spoke at St.Mary's on Friday last, and the Stratford Beacon of Baturday prefaced its report with the statement that It was not as large nor as\u2018representative as could have been desired.It gave a number of excuses, but did not mention that the people knew that Mr.Fisher was to.be the chief speaker.That may have had some influence.; It 1s not without significance that \u2018the Liberals in Ontario sedulously cultivate the idea that the Government is going to sweep Quebec.They concede Ontario to the Opposition.but bank on the Government being sustalned by the majority it will roll up in Quebec.The objeet of this move in influencing the wavering ones is, nf course, apparent.The idea that Wilfrid Laurier carries a province In h vest pocket is not a view which is complimentary either to the province or to hose who are asked to believe it: Yet many unthinkingly accept it.and the object of the Liberals iz =erved.That they practically admit in thia way their overthrow In Ontario and losses in the other provinces: thus early In the campaign is not without meaning.The ILAterals are frankly banking on the forgetfulness lethargy of the public and on the \u2018pfosperity of the country as their chief mainstays.In respect to the latter, the people recognize that the Government has done nothing to bring it about and that a change of Government would not mean any radical change in the fiscal policy., The element of nervousness and dread on the part of the business community 1s thus removed from the consideration.The applause when the promises of reduced expenditure, of cheaper binder twine, cheeper coal oil, etc.were referred to by the speakers would seem to indicate that the farmeraèare not so forgetful as they fondly ima, The labouring men of Stratford, as an instance, showed by their applause that they are not forgetful nf the Government's course in passing an alten labour law, and then appointing inspectors to see that it was not enforced.8ir Charles Tupper was roundly applauded: when hé declared hi& policy In this respect to be to deal with the Americans ling for Jina as they meted out to A «Weir, M.L.A.and other sardonio laugh usually greeted any reference to the Lf professions of purity In politics and clean and economical Government.In this respect, especially, the Liberals have reason to pray for a short memory on the part of the public.The ordinary Liberal one meets, who calmly puts up an Ingenious and reasoned arsu- ment on the other points, generally shows signs of nervousness or temper when these topics are broached.In the end he falls back on the excuse, which is an admission of the whole charge, *\u201cThe Conservatives did things which were as bad, or worse.\u201d One thing the people of Ontario are certainly not forgetful of, and that is the Government's weak vacillatlon In reference to the sending of a contingent to South Africa.Of this there were signs without number at the meetings, and wherever due rubbed shoulders with the ordinary, every-day citizen.THE INDEPENDENT VOTE.After all, elections are swung to one side or another by the great mass of in- dependent-minded men, who have no distinct party affiliations, or who have strength enough of purpnse to throw over thelr party when it is in the wrong.The strong party men prepare the cases, but this class decides the verdict.In-many cases they go to the polls quietly and vote without any one knowing which way they have voted, but In others they declare themselves beforehand by open speech or by taking part or refusing to take part in the contest.In 1896 I saw abundant evidence that the Conservative party was about to suffer from this class, in Montreal Tsland at least, and the symptoms must have changed if, in Montreal, in the Maritime Provinces and in Ontario, they are not clearly manifesting themselves now with respect to the Liberal party.One hears of disgruntled Liberals in many towns, and others In whom the leaders can arouse no enthustasm.Liberals of all shades and complexion have attended Bir Charles Tupper\u2019s meetings.They have been attentive listeners, and the challenge of the speakers to name one pledge which the Government has redeemed has never been acceptd.One wag in Collingwood re- pHed, \u201cYes, they have given us prohibi.ton.\" and there was a point to his answer, 00.The Liberal-Conservative speakers have clearly put the issue somewhat as follows: \u201cThe Liberals have not redeemed the pledges they made to you, the electors.Then turn them out.If we do not fulfil vur pledges when we come to power, turn us out also.\u201d In effect, that is what has been said to the electors in every place during the present tour, and in every place one could see that it made an impression on the people.The challenge is a bold one, and strikes an observer as the one great step forward toward a better condition of public life in Canada during the present campaign.W.D.McB.\u2014\u2014 MR.J.A.RENAUD THE CHOICE Liberal-Conservatives of Berthier Select Their Candidate.(Special to the Star.) BERTHIER, Beptember 26.\u2014Mr.J.A.Renaud, advocate, of Joliette, was unanimously chosen yesterday at Berthier, as the Conservative candidate for the county of Berthier at the coming election.The meeting for the choice of delegates took place at the Market Hall yesterday afternoon.Delegates came in from all the parishes of the county, and the most com- Jete unanimity marked \u2018the proceedings.Ir.F.O.Lamarche, of Berthier, was chosen president of the meeting and Mr.Victor ard, Mayor of Berthier as Secretary.\u2018The name of Mr.Renaud was first pronosed by Dr.Laurendeau, of St.Gabriel de Brandon, and seconded by Mr.H.Champagne, notary, of the same ple.Then the nomination was confirmed by the delegates of each parish in turn, without a dissenting voice.About two hundred persons assembled in the hall.Mr.Renaud, when called upon by the chairman, responded in a neat speech which was loudly applauded.He congratulated the delegates and their friends in coming in such numbers.They showed that their zeal for public affairs was not flagging.As one of those who took an interest in the affairs of the Conservative party and of the country he rejoiced to see their readiness, and was assured that when the grand old leader, Sir Charles Tupper, would ive the signal for the fray they would all be in tbe field determined to, triumph.(Cheers).e dwelt on the absolute disregard of ante-election promises by the party in power, notably as regarded the public debt and the annual expenditure.He expressed his deep gratitude to the people of Ber- thier for offering him the candidacy in the coming elections, which he regarded as equivalent to offering him the seat.(Cheers).It was true that he did not live in their country but he had invested there the savings of fifteen years of hard work, and his interests were centred in their county.He did not think it prudent to give a hasty answer, their choice would influence that of their opponents, but he would say that if no insurmountable ohstacle should arise be would be their candidate.{Cheers).Dr.Laurendeau arose to make an explanation on a personal matter.Mr.Archam- bault, notary, the present member, went around to some of the people of Berthier exhibiting a document signed by Dr.Laurendeau and purporting to be an en ment to support Mr.Archambault in the present election.He wished to deny in the most formal manner that he had ever made any such promise.He had simply telegraphed to one of his friends that he would not be a candidate against Mr.Ar- chambault, for he had no desire to be a candidate at any time.Mr.J.G.H.Bergeron then add.essed the meeting in a few words.He recalled the promises of the Liberals to reduce the debt, diminish the annual expenditure, reduce the price of coal oil and other products and then contrasted their performances with their.promises.Hon.Louis Beaubien dwek with the claims of the Hon.Sidney Fisher that he had established refrigerators to carry farm products to the English market.Mr.Beau- ien pointed out that before ever the Liberals came to power, ten steamers fitted with refrigerators sailed from Montreal, and refrigerators were established on trains running to these steamers.The Liberal party made many claims about the pros perity of the country, but they were all equally false.The Liberal party was able only in one particular, that was in tearing down and not in building up.They ridi- euled the building of the C.P.R.and other public works.Mr.Dorion said the C.would never pay for the grease for the axles, but to-day these same Liberals were proud of the line and claimed rome credit for the good it did throughout the country.The meeting closed with cheers for the Queen, Sir Charles Tupper and Mr.J.A.enaud.NORTH YORK LIBERALS.SHARON Ont., September 25.\u2014A meeting of the Liberal electors of North York was held in this village Jesterda for the selection of a candidate.Hon.William Mu- lock was again unanimously nominated.A lengthy address was given by the honourable gentleman, in which the work of his department was reviewed.Mr.Mulock also referred to the general legislation enacted for the benefit of the country in its forward progress.Addresses.were also delivered by Mr.A.Campbell, M.P., Liberal candidate for West York, and Hon.E, J.Davis, commissioner of Crown nds.ANXIOUS ABOUT ELECTIONS.;

OTTAWA, September 26.\u2014 The near approach of the end of September, and the absence of any indication of the date of the elections 18 causing no small comment here.Last year at this time the Cabinet, ar at least some section of it, was busy declaring that there would be no Canadian contingent sent to South Africa, but within a few days, a contingent was ordered, and preparations for its departure were being made, because the will of the people had decided that a contingent should go, and nolens volens the Governinent had to give way with what grace it could.This autumn sees another kind of struggle going on, but the results will be the same.There is pienty of evidence in unnecessary delay, in the frequent excursions of Ministers to the provinces to feel the pulse of the people and then hurrying up to the Capital to hold council together, though the members of the Government of all the talents fear to call on the general elections.They pro crastinate and again procrastinate.BRING BACK BAD REPORTS.They go once more into the provinces to diagnose popular sentiment, and return to their consultations with still less cheering news than they had before.Every excuse to postpone dissolution and the arbitrament of the polls is eagerly seized and used for all it is worth, but the people have made up their minds that the elections shall ~ome on soon, and the Government, this year as last.will have to recognize that the popular voice is paramount and sovereign.In circles where so far the likelihood of dissolution being imminent, has been pooh-pooh- ed, it is now said to be near, and many usually well informed: authorities look for nomination day either in the last few days of October or the early part of November.Extra assistance has been given the Clerk of the Crown in Chancery, and unusual efforts to complete the necessary printing is being made.It is hinted in high official circles that the time between dissolution and nomination will be unusualy short, and that the actual contest will be brief and hot.Judging from the reports of chance visitors to the Capital, the Government have good reason to fear the day of reckoning DEEP DISCONTENT PREVAILS.From all quarters come quite well assured statements that the Liberal regime ie doomed.and its daye are numbered when once poline is declared.One gentleman, an old Conservative, but a eup- porter of the present Government in 1896, and whose business takes him from Halifax to Vancouver, was here on departmental business a day or two since.In conversation he stated that he had just traversed the continent, and found deep discontent with the Government prevalent everywhere, the deepest being amongst the very men who had supported them most strenuously during the eighteen years from 1878 to 1896.CAMPAIGN ON THE PACIFIC COAST Opened Last Night by Sir Hibbert Tupper, Who Delivered a Vigourous Speech.(Special to the Star.) VANCOUVER, B.C., Sep r 26 Sir Hibbert Tupper opened the campaign for the Conservatives in Vancouver Monday night, holding for three hours with scarce y an interruption, an audience which packed the City Hall.He referred at length to the many broken pledges of the Liberal party, particularly to Laurier\u2019s notorious pledge made in a telegram: to J.\u2018.McLagan in 1896, that \u201cthe Chinese quéftion was not a question in the East and that the views of the Liberals of British Columbia would prevail with him.\u201d .In spite of this pledge, that a Philadel phia lawyer could not get around, there must be written under the promise, the same as under all the other anti-election romises of Laurier, \u201cFalse, false, false.\u201d ithout meaning it in a disparaging way, Sir Hibbert referred to the fact that Sir Henry Joly, guide extraordinary to Li Hung Chang when in Canada, who had receive: the Chinese Order of the Double Dragon, war now Licutenant-Governor of British Colurabia, and yet Laurier was the man whom Mr.Maxwell said was a statesman who was the greatest living friend to labour.The speaker said that the free trade policy of the Government prevented them from doing anything else than allow the people to buy in the cheapest market and sell in the dearest, and the perilous Mongolian labour was cheap enough in all conscience.Sir Hibbert bitterly arraigned the Government for their broken ises, as to the tariff for revenue y and their pledge to reduce the taxes and expenses of the country.He criticized their railway policy and gaid the Government was on trial.It was the easiest thing in the world for any man to expose the perfidy and false pretenses of the Laurier administration.as \u201cTAMMANY\u201d METHODS.Ottawa Liberals Suggest That They be Introduced Mt the Approaching Elections.(Special to the Star.) OTTAWA, Beptember 26.\u2014 About twenty- five St.George's Ward Liberals met in the Albion Hotel last exening to organize the work, which proved difficult, as no one showed much anxiety to so pronouncedly associate himself with the party as to take office.Some interesting things were let drop in the speeches delivered, and things which it may be useful to remember hereafter.Mr.John D.Grace referred to a visit he paid to New York rome years since when he made a special study of the methods adopted by the Tammany machine in ward elections.He eulogized the scheme of having an active committee in every polling division.Mr.Grace also referred, probably in jest, to the advantage it might be to have a few expert ballot shifters in esch polling place on election day.Mr.William Mott pointed out that on account of the fire many electors have left Dalhousie ward.\u201cBome have gone across the river into Hull, and a few have gone to heaven,\u201d he remarked,\u201d but perhaps their votes are not lost.\u201d .The crowd saw the point and emiled.Other speakers were Ald.Scott, Dr.Chevrier, W.Moeser and Mr.Labelle.Mr.Stewart, president of the association, spoke at some length, urging organization and a canvass of the younger voters.He admitted there had been a lack of union in the party in the past, but announced that the present condition of affairs was an improvement on this.The executive meet on Fri- ay.7 \u2018 W.F.McCREARY NOMINATED.WINNIPEG, Man., tember 28.\u2014At a Liberal convention in Belkirk yesterday Mr.W.F.McCreary, Dominion i .tion commissioner, was selected as the oan- didate for the coming ' 1 election Mr, McCreary secepted and will resign the immigration commissionerwhip.a \u201cIN NEW BRUNSWICK, ST.JOHN, N.B., September 26.\u2014 County Libetal-Conservative convention y terday unanimously selected \u2018George & Fowler.ex-M.L.A\u2019, of 8 : didate at the approaching ne their elec.on.: : Yesterday was\u2018homination «for the Loes!
