WASHINGTON, November 19.\u2014 The verni-official ) that megotia emus tb ooh he dom High mi \u201d Tesum Joint Hi Commission does not ia any serious improssion here with.the men who are informed as to the status.There are two or three members of the Commission not now on the Government roll, who would like to have the long drawn out negotiations resumed.Nothing definite is known yet about where and when the Joint High Commission would meet, if it should meet, but almost necesari © sessions would have to be here Senator Fuirbanke, of Ind mopths from Washington.interests of a large constituency to care for before Congress.All the important busi reas which will keep Senetor - Fairbanks- necessarily in Washington.for three months applies with equal force to Representative £ .Payne, of New York, chairman of the Ways and Means Committee of the House.But even if the rush of business would pot seriously hinder negotiations of the mission in Washington this winter, there would be almost no chance for the Senate to ratify any treaty that might be e with Canada during the next three or four months, the only ingency being that of an extre session ess.e regular session will not convene till early in December, 1901.Above all consideration, however.is the firmly grounded belief that the negotiations would come to naught, unless Sir Wilfrid Laurier is willing to concede almost everything the United States demands.here was something like a tentative agreement by the Commissioners two years ago on everything except the Alaskan boundary, and the proposition now is that the Commissioners should eliminate it altogether.The Senators along the northern border of the United States, even should the Commission agree to everything but that boundary, would in all probability refuse to ratify the treaty, eo jealous are they of the trade advantages which this Government bas under the present status.Then the flarco of the negotiations two years ago has disgusted the United States Commissioners.One of them said to your correspondent: \u201cThe announcement that the Commission will resume its srasions is probably premature.The attitude of the Unit- od States is the same as it was two years ago, and unless Sir Wilfrid is prepared to yield, the sessions would be just as fruit- ess as thev were .e sessions of the Joint High Commission two years ago were not devoted to diplomacy, they were devoted to debate The members, including the United States Commissioners, bad about as little notion of diplomacy as a sailor has of horseback riding.The Unit- States is a protection country, and it is to ite interest to have other countries free trade.And vet the himbermen came down here, as well ad at Quebec, and at the merting with the Canadians some of our Crators actually harangued on the glories pf tection.= Predioted fo: the Star, Monday, 11 a.m\u2014Easterly \u2018winds and cold ; Tuesday, milder again, with sleet © + temperatures Maximum and mipimure ures the past twenty-four hours: (1 ¥ Zero ; n, below, 8 below ; Qu w, 16 low ; Parry 42, #2; Toronto, oh 34; Ottawa, 56, 32; Montreal, 8; Quebec, 34 18; Halifax, 50, 34, \u2018 + TO-CURE A COLD IN ONE DAY.Fake Lautative Bromo Quinine Tablet Ait ; inine 9.neg \u2018refund the wicaey if it falls to cure.,W.Greve's signature js ob each box.vo .; 20% xx eoû t2 \u2014 aan a \u2018| must be tunnelied: RAPID TRANSIT IN\" LONDON, Under-Ground Electric Railway System .in London.COST OF WAR DISCUSSED.British Public Irritated Over Kruger Demonstration in Franoe.5 \u2014_\u2014 (Special to the Star.) NEW YORK, Novem 19.\u2014The London correspondent of fhe Tribune this morning cabled as follows: While there are consultations in progress respecting the construction of tbe Hamp- stead Underground Electric Railway by the Yarkes Syndicate, other Rapid Transit opérations are going on.The most important of these projects is the railway between Waterloo and Baker Streets Stations, with branches to Paddington in the north and the Elephant and Castle in the south.This line will be about half as long as the Hamp- stead line, but its construction will be more costiy and difficult since the river 5 .e projectors will avoid making gradients as steep as those of the Waterloo and the City Loe, and their train service will probably be lighter.Enginecring processes are conducted with much deliberation here, and the railwäy will not be opened for nearly three years.This line may have a joint station, with suitable approaches, with the Hampstead line in Tratalgar square, and suhway extensions are now in progress for the two lines in Central London and the city, and the Bouth London Electric Railway )a also under construction from Finsbury Park to the city.And will be completed in twelve months.These undertakings are for lateral ines.wx AMERICAN ENGINEERING METHODS Thefe is no immediate prospect for the construction of a line parallel with the Central London and through the inner cir- ¢le.The Yerkes Syndicate will introduce American engineering methods and a lighter train service, and will find thé public already accustomed to traips without clasee3, and also to the rapid empty g aad filling of cars at the stations.e Central London line has taught passengers the ne- ceasity if bustling for the trains ev minutes., | NEW BRITISH LOAN.Financiers are less positive than they were a week that the American bankers will not be allowed to supply a portion of the money which the british Treasury requires, They admit that the Chancellor of the Excheguer will probably look to the cheapest et, and as rates are higher in London than in New York and Chicago, be may find it convenient to obtain a commodity_where the terms are more favourable.While national pride would be gratified b ing the new loans entirely in England, ness is business.e financiers also admit that there is an advan in allowing Americans to take a good portion of the new loan.These operations will depend upon the meth of borrowi and the extent to which Tesources the Dutch territories are morigaged in payment of the debt.SOUTH AFRICA CAN'T PAY MORE © THAN THIRD WAR COST.Some financiers calmly talk about pledg- ing those resources for the full extent of | the costs of the campaign, but expericncad South African capt , like Alfred Beit, do not believe that the Dutch colonies can safely be asked to pay more then onp4hird of the gross amount, and not even that until they bave had a long interval for recuperation.All these calculators leave out of account the tremendous indemnities which must be paid to the loyalists in Cape Col: ony and Natal for their damages and losses.Cecil Rhodes is reported as favouring indirect taxation by tariff, but this would fall mainly upon Johannesburg, since the Boers can raise their owñ food, with the exception of coffee.Another proposal is an income tax in the place of the land tax, and that the mines, as well as the farmers, be liable to their profits being taxed in place qf royalties.But the burghers without \"horses, cattle or sheep, and with ir farm houses in ashes, will not contribute heavily to the income tax.The mine owners will pay the piper to a great ex- t.BRITISH PUBLIC IRRITATED.4 British interest in the visit of Mr.Kruger to France is on the increase, 88d the feeling of indifference is gradually \u2018changing into ome of irritation.The sentimental edmitation cof Frenchmen for the rights of w ers is fully recognized.but there is an impression that the Ki demonstration will be made neodlessly offensive 19 England, as such large sections of the people of.France do not tako thé trouble to conceal their dislike for this eduninv.= .People\u2019s Mutual Building Society, CLASS B.businezs enterprise which no one of a that a When men of smail means found out iting thelr ur à capital, them could conduct alone mas possible for them they discovered the secret of co-operation.!

Gerolstein-The Scotchman II charges of Lord Durham against Lester Reiff.Their decision will be given next week.The dispute is fast assuming a most important aspect.Lord Durham is likely bto- me embarked in a law suit which will equal In interest the famous crusade against §ir George Chetwynd, a number of years ago.Not only Lester Reiff, but Richard Croker {as not.involved, as his representative at the Derby put himself into the humiliating position ot having to produce Mr.Croker's betting- book for both races.4 These showed that 2.08%, to.the Scotchmah II lost, and that he had so little confidence in the horse's future that he did not risk a sovereign on the Liverpool race.The question whether Reiff will proceed against Lord Durham for libel naturally depends upon his getting a favourable decision, \u2018and under the advice Mr.Croker may give upon his arrival.The Sportsman rays: \u2018Lord Durham has cleared the ground with a vengeance.He charges Reiff with

STOVES IN BETTING RING.CINCINNATI, Ohio, November 15.\u2014 With a half dozen big stoves kept constantly red hot In the betting shed, the judges in heaviest greatcoats, and in addition swathed in blankets, and their pedal extremities on foot-warmers, all hands were pretty fairly comfortable, in spite of the biting cold at Newport.J.F.Holt's horse, Master Mariner, was scratch- od in the fourth race, tnavoidably, because Holt got drunk last night and fired his pistol off promiscuously around the stables, and was ordered off the track by the management.In addition to this punishment, officers were looking for Holt to-day with a warant charging a disturbance of the peace.In the last race, Elsle Barnes fell on the far side of the track, and ber rider, McGinn, was badly hurt.L Croker lost considerabfy at Doncaster when Pa ret Ae SAD HE \u201cWAS A WURDERER, Chief Detective Carpenter was one of the most surprised men in Montreal on Batur- day.During the morning a man giving the name of Emile Vasseur called at his office for the purpose, he mid, of confessing to the murder of a farmer named James Elliott, at Howick, in August, 1804.The visitor then handed Chief Carpenter a paper containing the confession, and then quietly asked to be locked up, as he was prepared to euffer the extreme penalty of the law for his offence.Chief Carpenter lost no time in look: ing at his records, and in telegraphing Howick.a séarch of the former revealed the fact that a man named Charles Edwards had been arrested at Howick in August, 1894, on the charge of robbing his employer, James Elliot, of a few dollars, and that the prisoner had been acquitted of the dharge after a trial in Montreal, The telegraph wires brought a Temsage from Howick to the effect that Mr.Elliot had never been killed, but was still alive and well.Hence no murder had been committed, as alleged.Mr.Carpenter, on ascertnining these facts, began to ply the man with questions, but the latter stuck to his story, and gave a graphic description of how the deed was one.The'man is evidently insane, although he oonneotedly and intelligently.His cage is one of the strangest that Mr.Cap penter has had to deal with, and it is probable that he will be sent to an asylum, after a medical examination has been made into his mental condition.The confession, which was well wgitten and punctuated, was as follows: To the Chief of Police, Montreal: Sir,\u2014I, Emile Vasseur, do hereby declare my guilt in having killed James Elliott, Howick, in the month of August, 1894, and, further, in having, whilst a prisoner awaiting trial in the gaol at Montreal, effected my escape therefrom.Furthermore, 1 accuse myself of having impersonated one Charles \u201cedwards, a former comiade, with whom I served in the Britich army, in the East Indies, and with having by means of this deceit received help on various occasions from his brother, George Frederick Edwarde, M.D., and Walter V.Edwards, barrister-at-lkw, both of whom präctice their professions in England.I have no desire to escape the penalty of my crimes, EMILE VASSEUR.Montreal, November 17th, 1900.VASSEUR'S TALE.In the course of an interview with a Star reporter, Vasseur said: \u201cl am a Frenchman by birth, having been born at Bordeaux in 1870.When very young my parents removed to London, where my father secured employment at the French Embassy.I was educated in England, and subsequently joined the army.We were first stationed in England, then in Ireland, and then in India.lt was in India that the man Charles Fdwards, whose pame Il assumed, died.I was discharged from the service in 1890, when J returned to England, and subeequently made my way to Canada, where I found employment as a farm labourer.I worked for Mr.Elliott, of Howick, the man 1 killed.but could never get along with him.We often had quarrels, One night in August, 1894, while I was sleeping in the coach-house\u2014my bedroom being too warm\u2014 Mr.Elliott came home.He saw me, and asked me what I was doing in the coach- house.1 pretended to be asleep, and did not reply.He went out for a few minutes to put away the horse, and I jumped up and made a search of the bugev in the hope of finding a bottle of liquor.He came back while I was looking, and at once pulled out a revolver and fired at me.I closed with him and during the struggle the weapon went off again, killing him instantly.I was arrested and brought to Montreal and placed in the gnol.While working in yard one day I slipped out of the gate, went down to the wharf and boarded a scow, on whieh I was taken to Three Rivers.From there I went to Quebec, and thence to Greenock, Scotland.While on_the other eide, I visited many places in England, as well as Bordeaux and ris in France, and St.Sabaestian

Saturday afternoon surprised his wite, Countess Curuuller, visiting an apartment of a gentleman In the\u2019 Rue du Provence.The count met the countess on the stalr- way, and tired three shots at her.She died on her way to a hospital.The count wus arrested.The family Is a prominent one, The count's brother is an army colonel.and the count is well known in the highest Parisian society, He 1s 13 years old.iis wife was 31 years old.She was formerly Mlle.Genevieve Bineau de 'Viennay.À \u2018suit for separation was pending between the count and countess.PARIS.November 19.\u2014The shooting of the Countess de Cornuller created eun- sternation in socla)l circles.where both the count and countess were prominently known.The countess was a woman of unusual beauty, and was often seen at the heatres, race courses and other resorts frequented by the elite of Parls.She was daughter of Count de Viennay.whose family is highly respected.She was mar- rted to Count Charles dr Cornulier 14 years ago, and three children are the result of the union, the eldest of whom is 13 years old.The marriage proved an unhappy ono, and.acting upon the advice nf her father.the countess separated from her husband our years ago.Recen!ly a decree was rendered giving her possessinn of the children.The count then began his esplon- and discovered that the countess frequently visited M.Leroux.one of her former admirers.Count de Cornuller claimed that a Hason was maintained by the couple; but the best Information ts that Leroux acted as the legal adviser of the countess.It {is stated that her father chose him to manage her affairs, Friday the Count watched M.Le- roux home, hut the countess did not visit her adviser.Saturday, finding her landau before M.Leroux's door, the count secreted himself on the stalrway, and when the countess descended, without x Word, fired three times, each shot taking effect.His wife never regained consciousness after the shooting, dying in the ambulance which was summoned to take her to the hospital.The count was exceedingly ralm upon surrendering himself, saying: \u201cI did it; 1 am her husband.\u201d He was the first to give aid to his wife after she fol.asked that a priest be sent for.He asserted that he did not intend to kil his wife, but wanted to create a scandal.PARIS, November 19.\u2014iLater) \u2014 The killing of Countess de Cornuller by her busband was the principal topic at the clubs and in soctal circles generally.Count de Cornuller's condition prior to his marriage was rather humble.and after his separation from the countess he lived in A small apartment in the Latin quarter, evidently maintaining himself on a very modest income.The countess, on the other hand, lived in fine style, and it Is evident that his changed domestic conditions.especially as they contrasted with those of the countess.greatly depressed him.The statement by M.Leroux.the advn- cate at whose apartments the countess Was shot, that she liad place) her affairs in his handgdiat the sugrestion of her father.Count Pineau de Viennay.is corroborated by the latter.who emphatically denies that there was any impropriety whatever in the relations existing between hs danghter and her legal representa- ve, ° fede ec CIRCULATION AND SPECIE, _ Canada Gazette Publishes a Statement Showing an Increase fpr the Month.OTTAWA, November 19.\u2014 The state ment

Eclipses All Former Records.WASHINGTON, November 18.\u2014The tests | of the new 12-inch naval gun within the last three days have resulted in some remarkable performances, entitling the gun to rank ahead of any of the 12-inch guns thus far made In this country or abroad.It was known that the tests had been most successful, but it was not until Admiral O'Neil recelved on Saturday from Lieut.Strauss, commandant of the Indian -Head proving ground; the detatled report of the tests that it was known that the monster weapon had eclipsed all former records for velocity and power.With a charge of 360 pounds of smokeless powder, giving a pressure of 16% tons per square inch, the gun p=v¢ a muzzle velocity of feet.Prof.Alger, the naval expert, says this is the highest ever attained by.a 12-inch gun, the record thus far ranging from 2500 to 2600 feet.With an pound steep tipped projectile the big gun would plerce any armour ever made.It is the first of forty guns which will go on

One of the great objections to the Canadian Pacific Railway scheme was the huge monopoly ery; but in the light \u2018of accomplished facts, what Canadian would wish that the work bad not been done?THE INJUSTICE OF THE LAW.Two Toronto judges have regretfully decided that the plaintiff in a certain 1:b:l suit, cannot refuse to answer questions concerning his relations eighteen years ago with a woman who is now married apd occunving a good position in society, and the disclosure of whose name would cad to her being ostracised.The decision is doubtless good law, but it is a striking il- injustice the Justration of what cruelty and can be perpetrated in the name of law.Were a newspaper to hold up this its publisher would be punished by the Jaw and rightly punished for the misery he would bring upon a woman who for many years has been leading a respectable life, upon her husband and upon her hil dren.Yet, what the law will not suffer the newspaper to do directly, the news paper csn do through the machinery of the law itself.It is an open question whether our vast and complicated legal system is not a failure; whether it has not been more of a curse than a blessing to Kn- manity; whether it hes not donc more harm than good.That it has been the fruitful mother of injustice everybody knows.Whole libraries might be written on the mistakes of the law.A client who is unfortunate enough to be dragged through all the courts of appeal may have a majority of the judges of all the courts collectively in his favour and yet by the decision of the final court lose his case and be saddled with costs rufficient to ruin bim.His only consolation as a rule, is that the man who wins the case is only a degree better off.Had plamtiff and defendant agreed in the first place to refer their dispute to the arbitration of a layman of ordinary intelligence and to employ po lawyers, the probabilities are that substantial justice would have been done.In every age there have been men who were free from the legal superstition awd who were disposed to revolt against the thraldom of an oppressive legal system.The most practical suggestion made to \u201cJack Cade\u201d with a view to furthering the rebellion was made by \u201cDick the butcher.\u201d \u201cThe first thing we do, let's Kill all the lawyers.\u201d This kind of reform is df course open to objections; but it is possible that something less radieal might be done to make the law what it ought to \u2018be, the handmaid of justice.We might begin by repealing all the statuies except the Ten Commandments and burning all the com- mentories.What we want is to get back to something like primitive simplicity in the administration of the law.When King Solomon rendered his judgment as to the maternity of Yhe living child after pro- posiar to divide it between the two claimants we are told that all Israel feared the king for the wisdom that was in him.Under the elaborate modern legal system if one of our judges were to try to administer justice on Solomonic principles be would be met with a demurrer, or an injunction, or 8 writ of quo warranto, and the babv would be seized for costs, EEE THE NORTH-WEST WHEAT CROP.There were very dismal reports about the Manitoba wheat crop a few months ago.but now it appears from the statement of Mr.F.W.Thompson, general manager of the Ogilvie Milling Company, that the crop, while much less in quantity than last year, is superior in quality, and the prices are so much better, that the money realized by the farmers of the North-West will not fall far short of last ye In making this estimate Mr.Thempson includes the North-West Territories, and it should be noted that while the wheat crop of Manitoba was below the average this year.that of the Territories was exceptionally good.The population of the North.West Territories has increased quite rapidly in recent years.It is true that a considerable portion of the new population consists of Galicians, Doukhobors and other foreigners, but however undesirable some of these immigrants may be considered by the Canadian settlers, they help to increase the quantity of wheat grown.Probably if the Manitoba crop of this year were compared with that of last year \u201cthe showing would not be so favourable as when the Territories are included.But Manitoba has had several years of exceed: ingly good crops and the farmers would not be ruined by one poor year, even if the wheat crop were as bad as at first reported.Moreover.the Manitoba farmers do not depend so muth upon a single crop as they formerly did.Mixed farming is more general.The people of Eastern Canada have always taken a great interest in the development of Manitoba and the North-West Ter ritories.and all Canadians will be pleased to know that the crops have turned out better than was anticipated.A WISE DECISION.The people of Ottawa have wisely decide& not to bave a winter carnival.Those who are interested and experiénced in the work of bringing immigrants into Canada nre united in the belief that the one great hindrance to their efforts ie the impression that exists abroad that Canada is a land of almost perpetual spow.and ice.A visitor from Australia recently expressed surprise at the absence of an ice palace in Montreal in Qotober, and astonishment that peo.vie were going around unconeernedly without overcoats and were not clad in furs: shat the flelds Wete green in places and 2Q emo, covered the atroce Le Sidewalks te woman's past life to public.condemnation, unfathomable depths, When asked why this astonishment, the reply was that seenep of Canadian life sent to the Antipodes al.mom invariably represented an ice palace er something of that sort, and photographs of otherwise sensible people showed them wrapped up in furs\u2019in a snowfall.By these means, a misconception of the Canadian climate hod been caused abroad, which it ip not advisable to accentuate.And go, in the ipterests of the Dominjon, the eiti- zens of Ottawa have acted sagsciously in abandoning the ill-advised project.The idea, however, of attracting tourists to Canadign cities is a laudable one, and there is no rcason why the good people of Ottawa, or any other live place, ehould not devote their encrgies towards holding a summer carnival, which doubtless could be made much more attractive than one in the colder months.No country has à grander summer cjimate than Canada, and none hag fairer or mere enterprising eities in which visitors from other lapds could be more pleasantly entertained during the summer or autumn.WHAT CHINA MEANS.The article on the explosion in China, which appears in the Fortnightly Review from the pen of Sir Robert Hart, chief comr missioner of Chinese Custome, can hardly be termed reassuring.He is, of all others, the one who should be best able to tell the the Chinese is, and what the true cause of the recent violent outbreak.Having become a Chinese official and identified with Chinese interests, he may be considered to sce things from a Chinese point of view.This faet, instead of detracting from, makes his opinion at the present time al} the more valuable.His idea is that the explosion is what might be termed ip other countries an outburst of genuine patriotism, The court entered fully into the popular feeling, and resolved to entrust to armed volunteers the duty of resisting further foreign dictation, [if not of driving the foreigners out of the country.Hence the uprising of the armed associa- sacres began.The Chinese who had accepted Christianity were killed, not because they were Christians so much ag because they were regarded as renegades to their race, who had thrown in their lot with the ene- mics of China and were not to be trusted.Sir Robert Hart says: \u201c The Boxer movement is doubtless the product of official inspiration, but it has taken hold of the popular \u2018imagination and will spread like wildfire all over the length and breadth of the country; it is, in short, a purely patriotic volunteer movement, and its object is to strengthen China~and for a Chinese programme.Its first experience has not been altogether a success as regards the attainment through strength of proposed ends \u2014the rooting up of foreign cults and the ejection of forcigners, but it is not a failure in respect of the feeler it put out\u2014will volunteering work,\u2014or as an experiment that would test ways and means and guide future choice; it has proved how to a man the people will respond to the call, and it has further demonstrated that the swords and spears to which the prudent official mind confined the initiated will not suffice, but must be supplemented or replaced by Mauser rifles and Krupp guns; the Boxer patriot of the future will possesa-the best weapons mdney can buy, and then the \u2018Yellow Peril\u2019 will be beyond ignoring.Twenty millions or more of Boxers, armed, drilled, disciplined and animated by patri- otic\u2014if mistaken\u2014motives, will make resi dence in China impossible for foreigners, will take back from foreigners everything foreigners have taken from China, will pay off old grudges with interest, and will carry the Chinese flag and Chinese armé into many a place that even fancy will not suggest today, thus preparing for future upheavals and disasters never even dreamt of.In fifty yéirs there will be millions of Boxers in serried ranks and war's panoply at the call of the Chinese Government; there is not the slightest doubt of that!\u201d There is no question of Sir Roberts\u2019 sincerity, nor of his opportunities for knowing those things whereof he writes.It simply shows, too, that, savage uncivilized barbarians as we have supposed the Chinese to be, they are actuated by metives which in other countries would be commended, though! their methods of attaining their ends are barbarous.They have seen their peculiar forms of civilzation treated contemptuously; wis sionaries.with some show of foreign power behind them, proselytizing and leading peovle away from the time-honoured sects of the nation; disrespect shown to the burial places of their aneestors\u2014the most shocking offence that can be placed upon a Chinaman.The very inroads of railway and similar enterprise they resented and showed their resentment in years gone by in a more peacéable and very unique way.Having given guthority for building some sections of railway, under dint of much coaxing and other kinds of pressure, the Chinese Government solved the problem of satis fyina the people,with whom the innovations were unpopular, by purchasing the complete railways from their Puropean owners and thon tearing up the rails and dumping the cars into the river.The railway man came again, however, and he came from all over the world.Tle built.and he developed, and he put the resources of European civilization before the people, who wanted none of it.Now all they ask of European civilization is the improved scientific means of killing men more rapidly and surely than with spears and arrows, in order that they may preserve China for the Chinese.Sir Robert Hart's only remedy, if it can be said that he suggests a remedy at all, is a hint that if Europe now teke upon itself the hetculean load of carrying China on its back; at once proceed to partition China and esch Eurepesn country bear its share of keeping the people in subjection, eduesting and diskrming them; maintainifig only Furopean police and soldiery.that in time the danger can be averted and peace assured.Sir Roberts's paper cannot but make his readers very thoughtful as to what the future holds for ve.claimed Mr.Bryan, of election fame, in to It is charged that

fis limits.There was now no room for the narrow local prejudices of the past, and what benefited one port must also benefit the other.He assursd the American visitors of his confidence in better trade reln- tions between Canada and the United States.Before a yesr had elapsed he looked for the settlemémt of outstanding differences, and saw no reason for the existence of custom houses between the two countries, or why at least there should not be an interchange of natural products such as soft coal for hard coal and their corn for our hay, ete.Colonel McNaught reminded the company that the wheat-growing ares of Canada was greater than that of the United States.At Depot Harbour, whither the came to Quebec, eightéen million bushels were already handled yearly, but more facilities were required at Quebec befora this quantity could be brought here.The great advantages Quebec possessed over other ports were the shortness of ita route, and the fact that the ship and thé car could be brought so close together.The transfer df freight in Néw York, es- peclally when the cars were at Jersey City.and the ship at Brooklyn, were so spatly that within the last tew years New ork had lost 37 .per cent.of this business.The serious disadvantage that both Montreal and Quebec laboured under compared with American porte could easily be removed by the Federal Government, se it ae pan + ETE re ST MERTINGS AND AMUSEMENTS.TI PI Ta HER MAJESTY'S.TH voue es ou\u201d A are STOCK CO.a Tr i A CELEBRATED C ASE.Frid] Marines THE COLLEEN BAWN VRICES REMAIN THESAME.Maux , NIGHT, 10, ,20c, Pc, 80, NE ES \u201cNell Gwynne.27348 Victoria Rifles Armoury.Prof.John Reynolds.6 tGITSs, Comumoncing Monday, Nov.10.pA 2 i Entertain sent.2721) MA AA.SEMI-ANNUAL MEETING, The semi-annual meeting of the Montreal Amateur Athlstic Associ beld in the Clu Mansfield St.on MONDAY,NOV.18th, 1900, C815 ment and to transact general business.Largs Attendance Requested.E.HERBERT BROWN, fec.-Treas will be 119 ion house, 267 4 daw The Annual Goneral \u2018Meeting of Shareholders of the VICTORIA RIFLES ARMOURY Associntion wiW bs held in the Ar \u2018moury, 87 Cathcart St., at 8.30 p.de Monday, November M RODDEN.Maior, oars Maw Sec.-'I'reas, Church of St.James the Apostle.SECOND RECITAL OF SACRED MUSIC, WEDNESDAY.NOVEMBER 71st, ut 8.13.SOG Mie at) Hollingshead, Miss Lang- short, Miss Shorey, Mr.Sutherian a.Bolo Orgunist and Director, Collection tu afd of Chdlr Fund.Ladies 0.B.A.of B.A.The Annual Quadritie Party, etc.der the auspices f Boyne Jubiles Yadies Ke \u201cLe, will Le given in wrence Rireet Horace W.Iteyner.2713 3aw © 1 Bts.), 0; Fras Evening, Dominion: 206 Ticket 18 can bo ha at No.31180 Ure be or \u2018 Paks Short MRS.ELLIS, Worthy Mlstresa F would spend a million dollars or so to equalize insurance rates, as it might well do after the many millions spent for railway subsidies and upon its canal system.He was confident, too, that the St.Lawrence eould be satisfactorily navigated in winter from Quebec to the ocean, and the great lakes from Chicago to Depot Harbour.In the Baltic, for the last five years the winter steamers had been running strictly on\u2019 \u201ctime and without accident.QUEBEC AND MONTREAL WORK HAND IN HAND.Mr.McFee, of Montreal, spoke from his experience in grain trade when he pointed to the advantages possessed by Quebec for doing a large share of thls trade.Montreal rejoiced with Québec to-day, for the prosperity of the latter could not but help Montreal.He sald he was amazed at the fertility of the country through which the Great Northern passed in the back country of Quebec, and that the roadbed of the Jine was unsurpassed for solidity.There was nothing at any of the St.Lawrence spaparts, he sald, to equa! the modern improvements in the new Quebec elevator, which would prove a great boon to the trade; Then there was no lighterage charge tor \u2018placing grain from the ears on ships.and former ran right into the elevator.That meant doing business at a minimum dost.He belleved that steamers of ten to twelve thousand tons drawing M to 85 febt of water would come to this port for grain, which would thus be able to defy.thy competition of any other route.Mars facilities than Montreal could possibly \u2018provide would shortly be required for the outlet of the graln trade.Only the comméncement of wheat growing had yet been attempted in Manitoba, and the yield was fifty million bushels.In two years be belfaved it would be a hundred millions.He hoped Quebec and Montreal would work hand in hand to remove the isability that still existed in the shape of discriminating insurance.There were immense possibilities, and he believed a new era for this trade was dawning.SHIPPING INTERESTS SPEAK.Dr.Harling, of Montreal, manager of the Leyland line, congratulated Quebec on the devslopment of the new trade.She posseaned advantages that no other port in America had, having no channel to dig to get to wes.He hoped next year that his company would ship ten millions of bushels hefe, and shonld he disanpoilnted if they did not double it the next year.There was no limit to what might be done here, but an effort must be made to do it ad cheaply, or a littlc more cheaply than asfy pther port.Then the business would .come a8 naturally as water runs down hili.- He warned his hearers.how- over, (hat the business raust be done on sven terms with Montreal as regards la- bayr.*- It \u2018pot, it would be very simple fer the ships to go back to Montreal or to United .States ports.The strength of a chain, the must remember, was only that of its weakest link.Then the harbour dues should be.abolished, and both Montreal and Quebec be made free ports.He had had expertènee of all the North Atlantis ports from Quebec to New Orleans, and had always seen the smallest vessels employed in developing a new trade.But his company was prepared to put on fits lar.geat ships, eo that the lowest possible ocean rates might be charged: as low as those paid the great ocean\u2019 carriers running from Boston to Europe.The Aibanian was à vessel of only 4000 tons dead weight, and was no criterion of what the company was ready to do.They would put on ships of double and thres times tts capacity.) He deprecated the constant references by Quebec nowspapera to what they cailed the mud channel.and hoped the unneighbourly!and injurious practice would cease.It's the fashion in Montreal to fuse Victorine\u2014which makes clothes white as snow without rubbing\u2014nor Infurs {ng any washing fabric.7 Q.Gratton, Grocer, 2004 St.Catherine St, Montres says: Yictorlne Is rapidly Place of the o ah log Hiring my eus ts muc .Soukna Sc,atallgrocers.93 8 s-were also made by Captain Ridley, of the Albanian;
