November 20.\u2014In the Reichstag yesterday on the occasion of the presentation of the supplementary credit for China, Count Von Buelow, the imperial chancellor, emphatically denied the awer- tion frequently made abroad that the China embroglio was traceable to the German occupation of Kiao Chou.This statement was greeted by the Social Democrats with loud cries of \u201cIt is quite true!\u201d Count von Buelow expreseed keen regret that such a cry should be heard in the German Parliament.The Chancellor.declared Germany had adhered to the aims and policy outlined in the circular to the allied governments.The allegation that the Government had not foreseen the Chinese crisis was true.Most of the other nations likewise had failed to anticipate that the storm in the Far East would burst so vio- Jently or so soon.\u2018\u201c\u2018But,\u201d added Count von Buelow, \u201cthe, premonitory signe did not Cscape us.¢ directed the attention of the other\u2019 cabinets repeatedly to these signs.\u201d THE POWERS' DEMANDS.Continuing Count von Buclew said: \u201cWe assume that the other j.5wers will mnt make territorial acquisitions.There is no ground for doubting the lovalty, of their attitudes.Of the end ret in view by the cireular note, only the most urgent point, the liberation of the Europeans in Pekin has been attained.Other highly imporcant objects remain to be reached\u2014security of the lives and property of foreigners, adequate satisfaction for outrages, compensation for the disbursements made and the costa incurred and the rafeguarding of our possessions.For the attain:nent of these a unanimous agreement hax n arrived at by the representatives of the powers in Pekin.Those demands 1 now communicate: \u201cChina shall erect a monument to Baron Von Ketteler on the site where he was murdered, and send an Imperial prince to Germany to convey an apology.She shall inflict the death penalty upon eleven princes and officials already named, and sue- pend provincial examinations for five years where the outrages occurred.\u201cIn future, all of thuse failing to prevent anti-forei outrages within their jurisdiction shall dismissed and punished.\u201cIndemnitv shall be paid to states, cor- (erations, and individuals.The Tsung Li amen shall be abolished and fits functions vested in a foreign minister.Rational intercourse shall be permitted with the Emperor, as in the civilized countries.\u201cThe forts at Taku and the other forts on the coast of Chili shall be razed, and the importation of arms and war material prohibited.\u201cPermanent legation guards shall be maintained and also guards of communication between Pekin and the sea.\u201cImperial proclamations shall be posted for two years throughout the empire, \u2018suppressing Boxers.; \u201cIndemnity is to include compensation for Chinese who suffered thiough being employed by foreigners : not compensation for native Christians.; ~ China shall erect expiatory monuments in every foreign or internatiopal burial ground where araves have been profaned.\u201cThe Chinese Government shall undertake to enter upon negotiations for such changes in existing treaties regarding trade and navigation an the foreign overn- ments deem advisable -and with reference to other matters having in view the facilitation of commercial relations.; \u201cIt is

which wa» held last evening in ) the gymnasium, was the question of the erection of a new clubbouse.This question has been very widely discussed, \u201cver since it was first brought, up, but us for as the members in general knew, noth ing had really been done towards realizing the plans suggested, and if anything ha been done it had been shrouded in a great deal of mystery.Mr.Harry Brophy, the president of the Association, was unable to he present, and Mr.W.O.H.Dodds presided in his stead.Mr.Nodds had been ed by Mr.Brophy to report progress nn his behalf, but those present desired to have some further information.Mr.James Taylor, ane of the committee, who was present, war asked to explain matters, an far as he could, and pleasantly astonished the gathering by suz- esting that the, minutes of the meeting fad by the committee, appointed to look after the plan, be read publicly.From what bad been whispered and talked about at various times, it was expected that some racy developments would result, and there was a great diranpointment when the minutes showed that through a combination of circumatances nothing bad really been done, although it had been the intention for some time to issue a CIRCULAR TO THE LIFE MEMBERS, asking for their co-operation n the matter.In ition to the meagre information contained in the minutes of those supposed to have been eventful meetings, Mr.Taylor volunteered the statement, which, according to his own idea, summed up the situation in a nutshell, that unless the life members were again prepared to become paying members, the plan of a new club-house would have to be postponed.If even half of the present life members would agree to become subscribing members again, the plan could e carried out.It was expected, of course, to give the life members special privileges for this.In reply to Mr.Grace, he stated that the present building could not be utilized for the proposed new club-house, if for no other reason than that if this was done, the association would be homeless, for at least a year and a ; A vote of confidence in the committee inc of the matter was voted, and they were ed to hurry things up.e question of a change of club colours, and their adoption by all the affiliated clubs as well was the next interesting business, and created quite a discussion.Mr.Grace on be half of the old Tuque Blue, protested solemnly about giving up the old club colours, red, white and blue, and as the opinion on the guestion seemed pretty well divided, the matter was referred to a committee consist ing of the Board of Directors.fre.Claxton announced : that the brass plate to commemorate the deeds of the members of the Association who HAD GONE TO SOUTH AFRICA to fight.would.bé in e shortly.The delay in\u2019 thé matter\u2019 oi been causea by the fact that this particular sort of brass bad to be imported from the United States.The treasurer's report showed a satisfactory state of finances.Among those ent were Messrs.W.O.H.Dodds Ayling, W.B.T.Macaulay, C.M.Cameron, David J.Watson, J.A.Buchanan.Lewis Skaife, N.Wotherspoon, A.G Claxton, they, T.J.Darling, Gen.Cuvillier, G.G.Pierce, L.A.Johnston, 8.M.Baylis, Fred.Rogers, G.W.hlin, Jack Hutchins, D.W.Allan, G.T.Pettitgrew, W.H d J.A.Barry, W.M.Doyle, E.Herbert Brown, eecretary-treasyrer, and about twenty others.\u2018;

there is every probability that after next Saturday the Canadian football championship will be here and the Canadian hockey championship, together with these, would give Ottawa a triple championship, and make the city pos of a distinction probably never before held by any place in Canada.There is a possibility that in the course of a short while representatives from both the Ottawa and the Capital hockey teams may meet and talk over the matter of join ing forces, and come to some agreement.VICTORIA ANNUAL MEETING.The annual meeting \u2018of the Vicboria Hockey Club was held last night in the Windsor Hotel, with Graham Drinkwater in the chair, and Mr.Stafford Bishop acting as secretary.The election of officers resulted as follows: Hon, President\u2014F.C.Budden.Hon, Vice-President\u2014G.Drinkwater, Premdent\u2014J, Stafford Bishop.Vice-President\u2014P.McKenzie.Hon.Secretary-Treacurer\u2014N.Lewis.Executive\u2014F.McRobie, J.Strachan, R.Bowie, A.D.Kyle.THE SECOND MONTAGNARDS.All the members and players of the sce- ond Montagnard Hockey (lub are earnestly requested to attend a special meeting of the club, which will be held on Wednesday night at 171 Letourneux avenue, Maison- neuve, Que., as business of the utmost importance will be transacted.A \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014e0 ON THE FOOTBALL FIELD.DARING PLAN FOR BALL GAME.NEW HAVEN, Conn., November X0.\u2014 Ten or twelve graduates of Yale in the clases of 1900 have a unique and daring plan to mee the Yale-Harvard championship football game next Saturday.They want to see it from hundreds of feet up in the air.\u2018Details of the plan have not heen received here, but the football management has learned that such a project is under way.Hobart Moore, of Chicago, and William C.MacKaye, of Franklin, a.are said to be the leaders.If plans mature a balloonist of Troy, N.Y., will bring his airship to New Haven and anchor it over the gridiron during the game.As Yale Field is at a considerable distance from the cit and there are no houses to interfere wi safe asbent, the balloonist would have no difficalty in .taking up those who! are interested.To see a game from an altitude so great would be a novel sensation.The incident would afford added interest also for the twenty thousand nj'ectators who will probably attend the game.\u2014e>-pmm-te The match for one hundred birds, $100 trophy, occurred at Inter state Park, New York, between Robert A.Welch, of New York, and T.W.M of Queen's.The result was a victory for Welch.Welch missed but one bird out of a posible hundred, mo : | NEW YORK HORSE SHOW.It Opened With a Great Deal of Eclat, and Promises to be More Successful Than Ever MANY NEW LADY EXHIBITORS.Some New \u201cFairy Tales\u201d Are Being Spread Abroad About Mr.Tod Sloane, Jockey.\u2014 NEW YORK, November 2.noon LOSE u yesterda the gates of Madison Square Garden were thrown open, the flag bearing the National Horse Show Association colours, orange and black, Les un up on the ; uilding, an ugie Harry Wilcox blew a blast ona tamper to announce the commencement of the sixteenth annual exhibition., The management states that the pros pects for the success of the show, both financially and socially, were never better.Nearly $10,000 in excess of the prices offer ed at any preceding show were bid at the auction vale of box seats.Sixty-four box seats were sold at an average of $400,,the highest price being $625, bid by Thomas Ww .Lawson, of Boston.For weeks the best rooms in all the great hotels où the city have been bespoken.If the Waldorf stretched all the way to Broadway and filled the block between Thirty- third and Thirty-fourth streets, it would have no vacant rooms to-night.For the greatest demand for accommodation has come to New York's show hotel.\u2019 But others are not far behind.The Manhattan, the Imperial, the Fifth Avenue, the Grand and Gilsey and Holland House, the Hoffman and all the other great hostelries have hired extra help to take care of the rush.Hundreds of sweil houses will be filled with guests this week, and many of those wise rich persons who enjoy the late autumn in their country homes have slipped into the city for Horse Show week.And yet there are some who say that the Horse Show js played out, that the \u2018\u2019400\u201d are tired of it, ote.The \u201c400\u201d forsooth! As if there were not 400 \u201c400s in this big country.When the gong sounded for supper Sum- day night in the big taverns of the city the Garden was fit and ready to receive its guests.It Jooked as fresh and clean as a new bandbox ready for a $15 dicer.The bunting was in place, the raw wooden boxes were draped in their usual colours, the fenee surrounding the big arena in which the horses are shown and judged was up and newly painted, and the air was redolent with the frosh and whole emme -mell of tanbark.Many of the entries from out of town had begun to arrive and were given accommodation in stalls as clean as my lady\u2019s boudoir.City siables horses will be Lept at home at nights as much as possible, ro \u2018as not to fall into bad company.With 1,500 entries, greater by 200 than ever before received, the association has been much put to it to find stabling accommodations, but the temporary lease of the old Fourth Avenue car stables has iven them room for many more, and the rorses will not have to ask on the streets for the wherewithal to purchase a night's lodging.- MANY WOMEN EXHIBITORS.One of the most interesting features of the-coming show is the large number of women exhibitors.Mra.Adams, of Benson- hurst, bas decided not to enter her famous horse Dan this year, but there are plenty of lady riders and drivers who are goin into the fight on behalf of their pets, an bow they will smile or pout at the decision of the judges.Mrs.John Gerken, an old exhibitor, will have some fine harness horses in the ring.So will Miss Florence L.Stokes, Mrs.R.1.Carmen, Mrs.D.B.Shults, Mrs.Thomas W.Lawson and Miss Frances Stotesbury.In the saddle horse class they will be represented as follows: Mrs.E.J.Ber wind, Miss Marion Holloway, Mrs.W.J.Steel, Mrs.H.S.Rubens, Mrs.J.W.Robins, Miss Marion Bourne, Miss May Bourne, Mrs.W.E.Kotman, Miss Helen T.Barney, Miss Ella F.Knowlton, Miss Ruth Wellington, Mrs.F.W.Duryea, Miss Marion Lawson, Miss Gladys Lawson, Miss M M.Pepper, Mrs.H.G.McElwaine, Miss Lulu Peters, Mrs.C.A.Doremus, Mrs.Walter Watson, jr, and Miss Clara Hughes.Hard-riding women will do their share to make the jumping tournaments exciting, and many of them will doubtless capture the blue ribbon brush, which all are seeking.ns CHICAGO A NEW ELEMENT.There is going to be a new element in thie Horse Show.Its name is Chicago.You will remember, possibly, that Chicago has been moving over to New York in big chunks.Many of the trusts which used to centre in the Windy City changed their base so that they could address their letters from New York.This moving has brought a big crowd of jolly rich people to the city; people filled with the atmosphere of the breezy West, and who propose to lend a le tinge to this week's festivities, which will show beyond question that they are here.So look out \u2018for some new beauties along the line, and some gowns the stunningness of which will make sober old Fifth avenue styles Jook like mourning ox Queker effects against a brilliant sunset.Chicago is going to be there with both feet\u2014\u201cSteel,\u201d \u201cTin Plate,\u201d and what not.\u2018As for the absentces\u2014alas!

Association, published in yesterday's Star, gives a clear statement of the views of the marine insurance men._ The underwriters claim that they have not raised their rates on account of spite, but because the losses on the St.Lawrence route justified the increase.They hold that river and gulf navigation between Mont.rcal and the sea is very much more dangerous than open sea navigation.Yet the un- \" derwriters apparently believe that most of of the St.Lawrence route could be removed and they intimate that much lower rates might be secured if certain improvement were made.the disadvantages Owing to the increasing size of modern vessels they claim that the ship channel should be wider, straighter and deeper.This is an improvement that it will - take time to carry out, but it should be noted that the size of vessels has been steadily increasing for many years and in the past the improvement of the river channel has kept pace with the increasing size of the ships.If the whole of the river channel from Montreal to the sea, or even from Montreal to Quebec, required to be widened, deepened and straightened the work would be so stupendous that it would seem folly to undertake it; but fortunately the river is wide, the volume of water is immense and there are only a few short \u2018stretches that require to be improved in the long distance between Montreal and the ocean.The St.Lawrence between Quebec City and the Gulf is from ten to thirty-five miles wide and very deep.Above Quebec City the river is gencrally -about two miles wide.but sometimes contracts to one mile, and here and there expands.To a point forty-five miles above Quebec City, the depth is from forty-five to one hundred feet, while from there to Montreal there is a depth of from thirty to fifty fect in the ship channel.except in shoal places, of which there are twenty between the two cities, with \u2018an aggregate length of nearly forty miles.To enable ocean vessels to reach Montreal, it has been necessary to dredge channels through these shoals.At one time.owing to these shal low places the largest versels that could come up to Montreal drew only eleven feet of water, but at the present time the channel is nowhere less than 271-2 fect deep at Yow tides, except at Cap Sante, the St.Croix Bar and the Bt.Angustin shoals, where.not more than 21.22 and 93 feet respectively can bé counted upon at lowest tides, so that shipe drawing more water must wait for the tide.Excent for veesels of the very largest size, the channel between Montreal and Quebec is now doep enough, and if the energy and enterprise of the present generation of Canadians are equal to those of the last generation the improvements will be continued until the very largest class of freight \u2018earriers can come up to Montreal.| But the main objections of the underwriters aré not against the viver channel as nature and art have made it.What they complain most about ia the inefleibmt system of buoys, lights and fox signals, the unestisfactory pilotage pervies.and the failure te make Proper hy- | K © drographic surveys of the river and gulf, and provide new charts.All those defects of the St.Lawrence route it js within the [power of the Government to remedy.and the Canadian people will approve of any \u2018reasonable expenditure for the purpose of making St.Lawrence navigation safe, if the money is wisely aml economically \u2018used.AN INTERESTING CONTRÔVERSY.There 1+ an interesting controversy going on between our esteemed coutemppr- ary the \u201cWitness\u201d and Mr.Lawrence A.Wilson, President of the Licensed Vie: tuallers* Assoctation.The subject under discussion 15 which of them did the more to help the Liberal party in the recent election campnign.As: the controversy is getting rather heated why not refer the question to Sir Wilfrid or Mr.Tarte?In the bour of victory there should be none but good fecling between the generals of the victorious army.Both the Witness\u201d and Mr.Wilson did yeoman service for the Mr.Wilson claims that when he to the hquor trade \u201cthe response was prompt, almost like the action of an electric button.\u201d The \u2018\u2018Witness\u201d denies that \u201cthe liquor interest of Montreal obeyed Mr.Wilson's button.Our impression is that Larry touched the button, and the \u201cWitness\u201d did the rest.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 cause.1ssued hjs manifesto OUR BOARDS OF TRADE SHOULD PROTEST.Mr.Ernest E.Williams, the wellknown English writer whose book \u2018Made In Germany.\u201d published a few years ago, did much to weaken free trade sentiment in England, has an article in the November pumber of the National Review, entitled \u201cThe Sacrifice of Canada,\u201d in which he strongly protests against the proposed treaty between the United Kingdom and Germany by which the British Government will agree to a permanent German discrimination against Canada on account of the Canadian preferential tariff.As has already been explained in the Star.a modus vivendi was arranged between the British and German Foreign Offices immediately after the abrogation of the German and Belgian treaties.By this modus vivendi the British Government agreed to German discrimination against Canada temporarily, and now it is proposed to crys- | tallize it into a treaty.Germany\u2019s contention is: \u201cCanada, by instituting the preferential tariff, has denied most-favoured-nation treatment to us: we, therefore, will not give it to her.\u201d Mr.Williams says that Germany's allegation is false, for Canada has one tariff applicable to all foreign nations.\u201cWhen, for example, in 1878, she inaugurated the National Policy by raising import duties, they were made applicable to all foreign countries alike,\u201d says Mr.Williams.\u2018When a few years hgo reductions were made in the tariff list, Germany shared in them equally with the United States, although it was for the sake of trade with the United States that the reductions were made.Germany, therefore, does continue to enjoy most-favoured- nation treatment in the Canadian markets.She cannot point to any single foreign nation which pays a cent less duty upon any import than Germany pays.The sole ground.therefore, for Germany's argument Jies in the preposterous assumption that Canada is to treat her Mother Country and her eister provinces of the Empire as foreign nations * * * * And what makes the argument so specially preposterous, in regard to Germany, is that she also, is an Empire like our own, comprising a number of semi-independent States, between which States therc 1s perfect freedom of trade.If Germany can say that she does not enjoy most-favoured-nation treatment from Canada because the imports from Germany are taxed at a higher rate than those entering .Canadian ports from other portions of Cansda's own Empire, then how could she resist a converse claim upon the part\u2018 of England, or France, or any other mation?Are not those nations equally justified .in contending that Germany does not give them most.favoured-nation treatment, since Prussia and Hanover and Bavaria admit into their territories merchandise from the other parts of the German Empire free of tariff detr, whereas English, or French, or American goods going into Prussia or Hanover or Bavaria are subjected to import duties.\u201d The Cobden Club is on the side of Ger: many and againet Canada in this matter, {because if the German Government would recognize the right of the different counties of the British Empire to discriminate in each other's faveur the strongest objection to Mutual Imperial Preferential Trade would be removed.That objection is that if the United Kingdom adopted a preferential tariff in favour of the colonies foreign nations would retaliate.The Cob.den Club does not wish to see this obiee- tion removed, and consequently supports the German contention.In reply to the argument that after all the trade bétween Germany and Canada is at present of trifling amount,, Mr.Williams mays: \u201cIt is really wo justification of a bad action to say that is tangible ill effects are small; but let that paes.The tangible ill effecta in the precent case are not so small.True, Canada\u2019s export trade to Germany is at present of comparatively slight dimensions, but though slight, it ia growing\u2014or was growing\u2019 prior to the imposition of the penal duties.In 1891, it was valued \u2018at £109,344; 1895, at £128,831; in 1808, ot £377,558.Sinoe the exclusion of Canada from moct-favoured nation treat ment, the trade has declined.Thus: the Canadian exports to Germany of wheat, oats, peas, rye, buckwheat and barley, which reached a total of 1,783,000 bushels in the year ended June, 1398, only attained a total of 674,008 bushels in the following yoar, when the pew arrangement began to operate.* * *\u201c* But the lo in the German market does not represent the full extent of the Canadian trade affected.The other powers will follow .Germany's lead, and Canada\u2019s exports to all foreign countries will be barred.from most-favoured nation treatment.\u201d .What this foreign ti@de might reach in future may be guessed,\\ when it is noted that the United States now annually exports to Germany about 125,000,000 worth of domestic products; and Wall the other Jow the example of Germany, products would be almost completely shut out of merkets to which the United States snnually exports about $350,000,000 worth of goods, largely food products that Canada could fyrnish.Mr.Williams believes that Mutual Imperial Preferential Trade is a prime neces nity to the continued prosperity of the United Kingdom.Referring to the colonies, he says: \u201cThose great estates of the Empire are going\u2014quickly, if we help them, surely in any case\u2014to develop into mighty and rich communities.* * Cobdenites delight to point to the comparative small new: of colonial markets at present, but no one who knows anything at all about the colonies and their capacitics can doubt that those markets are guing to grow hugely.Meanwhile foreign markets are gradually\u2014 it 33 impossible to deny the fact\u2014being closed to ts; tarif walls and the stupendous development of native industries all forecast the inevitable diminution of our trade in foreign markets.\u201d Mr.Williams says it is not yet toc late to indude the British Government to insist upon fair treatinent for Canada in making this treaty with Germany.He thinks that it will only be necessary to show the thoroughly aroused against it.It is a matter of vory grave \u2018mportance to Canada, and the Boards of Trade throughout the Dominion should petition the British Government not to agree to German discrimination against Canada.This is a maiter in which the cooperation of the Chambers of Commerce of the Empire could probably be secured.\\ Richard Croker declaros he will eupport a reform movement ip, the government of New York City.Croker possesses one qualification, at least, which the New York reformers lack; he is able to keep the reins of power.But any brand of reform labelled \u201cTammany\u201d or \u201cCroker\u201d would be the subject of close scrutiny.A real era of reform under the Tammany boss\u201d would surprise the professional reformers, but not less than_the bogus ones in the Croker ranks.The city authorities should consider whether the proposal of the Montreal juveniles that some of the public squares and parks be converted into.ekating rinks in winter can be carried out without injury to the ornamental features of the squares.If any of the squares can be made available for this purpose a great deal of pleasure will be given to thc young people, and the squares will become as valuable to the city 1p winter as jn summer.In Toronto, some of the public squares are utilized in this way in winter, and it is pleasant to see the gay and happy-faced youngsters enjoying themselves on the ice free of cost.Some of our Chicago and other journalistic friends over the line are reviving the story about the discovery of America by the Chinese as a recent result of researchea in Pekin.The story has been stated, believed bv some readers of history and discredited by others for many years.It is strange that the people who are now credited with - being the real discoverers of America should be the onlv people the present inhabilants of the country pass laws to exclude.The mited States may have cheering multitudes around the statues of some mighty Ham Wah or Ching Chop of long ago, set up to ornament the parks of cities where their countrymen are even less honoured than the compatriots of Christopher Columbus are.The shipment of steel from Cleveland, Obio.to Englahd by water, using the St.LaWrence canal route, is a new departure, which may have most important results, as the shipment of Ohio coal to the old country by the same route is now being mooted: The first of the steamers, carrying steel from the United States to the country which was once the especial home of steel manufacture to the exclusion of almost all other lands, has now come through our canals.It is the advance guard of a great fleet of the future.The steamers are part- Iv loaded in Cleveland and the balance of their cargo is placed in a barge which the steamer tows to Montreal, where, having passed through the canals, the barge load je transferred to the steamer, which then leaves for England.This marks a new epoch in the trade of the lake ports and the experiment is being watched with no small interest by the world.A fleet of twenty or thirty steamers is being built for this busi- Dess.THIS EVENING ACADEMY OF MUSIC\u2014\u201cSporting Life,\u201d Pnglish melodrama.R' MAJESTYS THE , Garrick Club in \u201cA Night Off.\u201d THEATRE ROYAL.\u2014 \u201cThe

PARIS, November 20.\u2014In a letter received here Maud Gonne says: One more humiliation aud one more sorrow have been added to Ireland's overflow ing cup of bitterness, in that, because England possesses the soil of Ireland, we may not welcome Kruger to our midat.- The hearts of the Irish people go out to him in passionate admiration.He is the sym- bo] of that nation which ie doing what Ireland Jongs and hopes to do\u2014fighting against the most criminal of the world's oppressors of the weak\u2014the British Empire.No man living would receive such a welcome to Ireland as Kruger, were it possible for him to land there: except, perhaps, De Wet, Louis Botha or Steyn; or our brave countryman, Major McBride, who com: manded the Irish Brigade, The citizens who smashed the carriage of Lord Mayor Pile for receiving the Queen and getting a title would have received Kruger with indescribable enthusiasm ; while thirty thousand little children of England who refused to go to the Queen's treat.but marched through the streets cheering the Boers, would have formed a bright guard of honour for the venerable ex-President.; Arthur Griffith, editor of the United Irishman, who 5 at the head of the delegation to present an address of sympathy of the people of Ireland to Kruger, writes me that a number of signatures to the ad- drees arriving for transmission is most sat- factory.Al] the the towns of Ireland VIE IN SHOWING Sympathy.Among the lists is one from the women of Ireland, whose signatures fill a large volume, saying: \u201cThe e that is left us.England cannot destroy\u2014the hope that one day our netion, like yours, shall have arms to fight our common enemy.We pray every day that deliverance for your pec- ple and for ours be near at hand.\u201d This is the feeling of the great mass of righ , and the sentiment which inspires most of the addresses to Kruger.We know our satisfaction will come the day England's policy of greed brings her into ; conflict with some great power.Then, i we use our opportunity, we shall be free, It will be our salwition, as it will assuredly be the salvation of the Transvaal Republics.If we dv not take advantage of the opportunity when it.comes, we deserve to be aves and vanish off the face of the earth.etl \u2014 - INCREASED AMERICAN ARMY.Will be Fifty Thousand, and President May Double That Number.NEW YORK, November 20.\u2014 It is learned from authoritative sources in the War artment, says a Washington special to the Tribune, that a bill is being prepared which will be presented to Congress providing for a permanent minimum gtrength of fifty men in the rear army and at the sie time confer.ting authority on the ident to double this num in case of need by adding enlisted men to the existing organized companies without increasing the number of commissioned officers.is arrangement would bring the army more in harmony ith modern methods of organization,which tend to large companies and regiments.YOU THINK becanas your n bour dresses well he is in receipt of a li .Not at He ters somo bf Tava i logis ways look well and cost little, us Ber R.PARKER & CO., France: Dit (late) ai (Merchante) 28.DYERS & CLEA Montreal, Que.Da 1 MONTREAL CONSERVATORY Founded, 1893, by C.KR.Seifert, the Director.ma ie Dorchenter 81.near Mountain.!

it desire, to replace any of these officius.There was a long discussion by the civie | committee, over leaving the names; of these | officials in blank for the Counc: to decide what should be done with them: but, finally, the course mentioned was decided upon There was also a long discussion over a proposition to allow no official to draw over three or four thousand a year, but it was eventually decided that it would be a hardship in the cases of Mr.Robb and Mr.à o reduce their salariés., The Medical Health, Officer, Mr.Laberge, is to draw the same salary, and he, like Mr.Robb, Mr.David, and a few other heads, were appointed, and their names not left in blank for Council to devide what should be done with them.There is little or no rhange in the salaries of the City Attur- neys, Messrs.Archambault and Ethier; ne ther is there any change in the personnel of the employes of this department.MANY CHANGES TO BE MADE.The employes of other departments do not come out so well however.It is shown that in, the \u201cLong Room\u201d a considerable num- her of changes should he made among the emploves: while certain changes are -also suggested as fu malaries thit are being pard.Evidence- has been taken by the committee on the ability of all the em- plaves, and where some of them have been found ta be incompetent, or inattentive to work, they should not be retained after the first ol the year.and it is suggested that the committees, which sue employes serve, shculd report to Council just what should be done with them.In the Cumptroller\u2019s Department the salary of the comptroller is left the same, bat it is suggested that he should be on the rising scale till he reaches the salary * paid to the Treasurer and the City Clerk.The clerks in tins department are left at .the same salaries as they are now | much drawing.but, as in all the other departments, the fiat 15 given forth that in the event of new men being appointed they should start at lower wages than what the present men started.This rule is spe- calle pointed at the heads of the department.It was thought there might be some change in the Board of Assessors, but there 1x none.The assessors are to be left at their present salaries and the personnel of the board will remain as it is at present.As siated it is thought if all the sug.estions are carried out, as to the changing of salaries und the reduction of em- ployces, a saving of some ten thousand a year will be affceted.The report in.question is sure tu give risa to a keen discussion in Ceuncil.FIGHTING DE WET.Battle Raging Near Thaba N'Chu\u2014 British Outpost Attacked.LONDON, November 20.\u2014(Special)\u2014Des- patches om South Africa report Bet a tahytt } roceeds i etwe gitieh Bn he Dew ro oe Roberts ca- à les the War Office that the Boers attacked a British outpost at Thaba N\u2019Chu on Nov: ember 16, and killed one British officer and three men.They ailowed a prisoner to return to the British garrison with a request for an ambulance./ Lord Roberts states that the Boers areffrery active in the southern part of the Urange River Colony, and telegraph lines near Edenburg.He says the occupation of Klerksdorp by General Barton is important as it greatly hampers the EET FOR HOME.Town for England.(From the Special Correspondent of \u2018th Star, resident in London.)

Acquitted.There wus a painful scene in the Court of Special Sessions this morning, when Thomas Holloway was sentenced to three years in St.Vincent de Paul Penitentiary, on being found guilty of bighway robbery.His bride of but à few months had followed the case with cuger-interest from the time some weeks ago when her husband was arrested, and this morning she was in court to hear the verdict of the judge.Hope buoyed her up, and she stood near the prisoners\u2019 dock praying that in a few moments he would be free to return to their.little home with her.It was not to be so.A Just verdict of guilty was rendered by Judge Desnoyers, and \"after pointing out the seriousness of the crime of highway robbery with violence, he sentenced the young man to three years\u2019 imprisonment.A piercing shriek of despair aud agony rang through the Court House, and the poor woman fell unconscious at the foot of the dock.Without an opportunity to help to revive her, the husband was hustled away to begin the long term of imprisonment.Mrs.Holloway was carried into a_private room by friends, who for half an hour worked over her to restore consciousness.When she did revive it was only to go from one fainting spell into another until she vas removed to her desolate home in a cab.John Hatton, who was with Holloway when the robbery occurred, was found not guilty of having participated in the actual theft, but he struck the victim, and for this Judge Desnovers found him guilty of assault and fined him $25 and costs or three months in gaol.tly A BEAUDRY BLOCK FIRE.A Bad

from the cars, and In this manner Cardinal must have received the Injuries which led to hts death.Assistant Superintendent Kennedy stated that on the day of the accident the public took charge of the

the city while he was out on ball pending the hearing of a criminal case last spring, has arisen In the arrest of Moses Kahal, of Quebec, who 18 charged with being a party to the fraudulent secretion of goods by Bernstein In order to defraud the creditors of the late T.The action against Kahal js entered on behalf of M.Blumenthal by Mr.Charle- bois, of Plante and Charlebois, and Mr.Cranskshaw is defending the prisoner.Kahal came to Montreal from Quebec \u2018two weeks ago.and was at once arrested on a caplas.The case was argued before Mr.Justice Mathieu, who quashed the ca- plas yesterday.The defendant was at once arrested on the criminal charge, and this morning he appeared before Judge Desno- yers and pleaded not gullty.The exact amount not in dispute is $1,000, but Mr.Blumenthal claims that through the machinations of Bernstein, creditors In Quebec and Ontario were swindled out of goods.to the value of $60,000.The claim is that worthless paper was accepted and put into circulation; that certain men were given.a business to manage, which really belonged to Bernstein, and that he took paper from them and put it into circulation, taking care to get the goods back into his possession before the creditors could seize them.Kahal will In all probabllity be releasec& on hall this afternoon.About fifteen witnesses for the prosecution have been called,

that the deal had been consummated.The interested parties are reticent on that point.- The acquisition by the Canadian General Company of the large plant and good-will of the extensive patronage of the Royal Company's manufacturing business would practically give them a monopoly of the business In Canada.The Royal Company would then be Jeft with a clear hand to pursue to a conclusion some of the ambl- tious schemes which are credited in the street to the master hand which guides its destinies.ne of the first of these is alleged to be the acquisition of the Gas Company and the Lachine Rapids Company, thus practically controlling the lighting business in the city.After that it is proposed to amalgamate all the electric railway lines on the island under one great system.ELECTRIC RAILWAY

Take Hold on Bull Side of That Cereal.(From the Star's Special Correspondent on the Chicago Board of Trade.) .CHICAGO.November 20.\u2014In speaking of the action of the wheat market to-day, one of the most conservative men in tha trade sald: \u2018It looks as though the time had come to take hold on the bull side nf wheat.The market has been acting so discouragingly lately that the bull features of the situation have been allowed to drop temporarily out of sight, and the bears have had such free play that they have practically sold the market to a standstill.It seems probable that we have now practically reacived the maximum of ibe visible supply, as we have just had a large increase, which was all on the lakes and canal, and was put on the route of private elevators.Primary receipts are showing a decided decrease, and b weather will soon Le at hand, when shipments from the country will be smaller.\u201d Primary receipts to.day were only 563,00 against 1,160,000 last year, and stormy weather Is general throughout the West and North-West.Receipts of wheat at Minneapolis and Duluth have been only a little over half last year's since July 1, and a considerable part of that has n winter wheat from sas and Nebraska.Liverpool closed to-day only % to %d down in spite of the fact that we broke %c a bushel on their advance of Xd yesterday.It 1s quite likely that we shall hear something more that Arkentine dem- age prices were nervous to-day.The November corn deal showed nothing new today.Phillips was a \u2018moderate seller of November in order to keep the price below &

therein.During his atay herc on that occasion a reception will be tendered him by the Daughters of the Empire, arrangements for w were made yesterday by Mrs.Clark-Murrey.All creeds and'nationalities will be invited to meet the reverend gentlemen.Father O'Leary wears the helmet he wore during the whole of the South African campaign.It bears the marks of the Boer bul: lets, and thus teatifies more eloquently than words to the great risks the allant chaplain ran in his effort to perform his duty.The helmet, he raid, was often used by him as a pillow.He also carries with him a small spade.such as were used bv the Canadians in digging trenches, ete.It bears no than six indentions, thus showing that it was struck by so many bul lets.This was carried in front of the face during one of the

and putting new vitality into the tired Jimbs a n pds.\u201cFather O'Leary, 1 can sav in all truth.was the only oflicer of all those sent to the front who won the universal respect and confidence of

food, as related to his health.He savs: About ten months ago a dizziness came upon me each morning, kept growing worre, and a headache would invariably come on in the afternoon.and after meals 1 would have vomiting spells which would leave me very weak; also there was a burning sensation Jin the locality of my heart, and many\u2019 nights I have not slept a ink.\u201cA physician whom [I consulted told me to give up my position at once and Ro to some watering place for my health.for if I did not it would only be a question of a short time until death would claim me.I did not feel able to give up my position, but my condition kept getting worse, and finally my skin turned to a sort of greenish colour, appetite left and I was thoroughly discouraged.\u201cAbout this time our grocer, by mistake.sent up a package of Grape Nuts instead of some other goods ordered.1 thought } would try it, having no idea that it would in any way benefit my health, but the first day after using the food I noticed a decided change in my condition, My severe headache did not appear as usual, and 1 began to have an appetite, - \u201cI thought at first it wos the effect of a medicine was taking, but one of the tam- ily suggested that it might be Grape-Nuts, fpr Grape-Nuts had the reputation of being great nerve builder.In order to be sure I quit taking any medicine whatever, but continued the use nf Grape-Nuta.\u201cOn the eighth day the dizziness entirely isappeared and the headachds were very slight.I felt almost like a new man, and in three weeks after I began using the food was entirely well, and am now in better health than É have ever been.My own case proves truth of the claim that Grape-Nuts food is a t vitaliger and brain food we Me oods, 1717 Holmes reet, Kansas City,

Gordons, his hearers were carried away by emotion.He was cheered agsin and again.His description of the remmant of the Highland Brigade after tbe terrible devi- mation at Magersfontein, was ost pathetic.he speaker referred to several old High School boys who were members of the Royal Canadian Regiment, an\u2018! each allusion was marked by cheers from boys and girls alike.Father O'Leary, as an educationalist, pointed out the supreme unrortance of discipline, whether in s*hool or at college, in camp.of on the battleñeld, it was discipline that told.Unquestionably, obedience was as much the Juty of the schoolboy as of the soldier.; The reverend gentleman, in referring to the services rendered by him to Protestant and Catholic alike on the battlefield, and at the graveside, sad that he had only done chat he considered his duty, and he would consider himself amply rewarded if he had in any way helped to remove any of the barriers that had too long existed between different -nationalities and secte.; He hoped the time was soon coming when these barriers would all be removed, and that from the Atlantic to the Pacific we would all be known as Canadians, and nothing else.; ; THE BOYS WERE BRAVE.Father O'Leary said he could not clnse without calling attention to the uncomplain-.1 manner in which the Canadian lads had borne the trials and hardships of the campaign, and the unflinching spirit with which they attacked at Paardeberg.He quoted Lord Roberts as saying, on the morning of the battle: \u201cWhen | heard from my tent that terrible five 1 was afraid that it meant a terrible slaughter, but 1 had con: fidence in the men attacking, I felt that if the Canadians could not do the business, no one could.\u201d .On the completion of the address, the rector proposed three cheers and a tiger for Father O'Leary, and, needless to say, they were given with a will.During the proceedings the pupils sang \u201cSoldiers of the Queen,\u201d and at the close the National An- em.Father O'Leary was much impressed by the reception given him, and said that he had never addressed such a bright audience, \u201cWhy,\u201d said he, \u201cevery eye seemed to look through me.\u201d THE BOY PREACHER.The Audience Which Heard Him Last Night Was Not Large.HIS BROTHER SAYS THAT THEY ARE ACCUSTOMED TO PRESS CRITICISMS.The audience that greeted \u201cJack\u201d Cooke, the boy preacher, in the First Baptist Church last night was not a large one, the unfavourable weather.doubtiess, being partly responsible.After the opening religious exercises, In which his brother and the Rev.J.A.Gorden took part, the congregation was asked to select a text from which \u201cJack was to preach.Four were tendered, namely: John 11.5: Mark xifi.37: Romans vi, 1-2.and Psalms xxvb XK.These, having been read by \u201cJack.the congregation was asked to signify by a standing vote which of the four they preferred tn have discussed.The choive fell on John 111.5: \u201cExcept a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of Gad.\u2019 The text being repeated a couple of times, \u201cJack at once plunged Into his | subject.He stuck to it for a few minutes, and then hegan to talk of the flesh.and how man could subject tt to the wtil of God.or make it an instrument through which his soul could be divorced from God.and from spiritual things.Then he swung round again to his theme, and remarked that it was difficult for man to comprehend what God really was, People expected him to possess hands and feet and body.eyes.ears, mouth and nose.They thought that having been made in His image He must essentially be lke them.They forgot that He was a spirit.and that being the case.it was impossible for them to comprehend Him unless they tno were born of the Spirit.It Was neres- sary that they should behold Him through thelr spiritual nature, At this point Jack\u2019 again switched off, and began to upbrald Christians for their worldliness.Very few of them were living as they should.They were fona of worldy pleasures, and allowed these to come ton much between them and Christ, and so the address continued for upwards of an hour.The audience in the meantime grew tired of the rambling remarks, and seva- ral left the building.- Before the sermon \u201cJack's\u201d brother alluded tn the manner fn which the \u2018\u2019preacher\u2019 had been criticized in the public press yesterday.\u201cWe are used to such things, hawever,\u201d he said, \u2018and they don\u2019t hurt ns.Evi- dentiv.therefore, tne Montreal papers are not the only ones which have spoken dis- paracingly of the \u2018preacher and his brother.CATHOLIC SAILORS\u2019 CLUB.The Catholic Sallors' (lub held fts \u2018farewell concert

defence.\u2026 TOBORROWS3,000,000 The Proposition to Be Placed Before the Ratepayers by the Council.FOR BETTER PAVEMENTS The Abolition of Level Crossings, sto.\u2014 Bonsecours Market Extension Scheme Discussed.The enlivening proposition is to be made to the taxpeyers to approve of the aldermen\u2019 borrowing two or three additional millions to spend upon improvements in the city.This scheme, which is pretty sure not to make the taxpayers weep for joy, was decided upon at the meeting of the City Council yesterday afternoon.It will sound paradoxical when it is sid that had it not been decided to ask for this enormous sum, citizena might have wept in real earnest.The fact is it was only the decision to ask the electors to vote millions galore that prevented the passing of a motion to increase the civic debt by about a half million in order to enlarge the Bon- secours Market, and this without any appeal tu citizens.À certain section of the Ald.Roy Speaking on the Bonsecours i Market Scheme.council was bound, by hook or crook, to have the Quebee Legislature (which pen- erally has little regard for the taxpayers of Montreal), to give the council permis sion to raise a special loan, without consulting the electors, for the enlargement of the market.| IS AN OLD PROJECT.The projet of the enlargement of the Bonsecours, upon which the City Council spent an entire afternoon yesterday, is hoary with age; nevertheless there are aldermen who are intensely wrapt up in n\u2014it means the expenditure of about a halt a million.Twn plane for the enlargement of the market (whieh have been published in this papers, were submitted to council, and with them a report from the Finance Committee that favoured the extension; but left to council to decide where the funds were tn come from.There was also an opinion from all the city attorneys, except one, saying that the only legal way for the aldermen to do, if cash was raised, wax to appeal to the taxpayers for permisson to float a loan, This decision was not relivhed by several aldermen, who wanted to flcat a loan without con~ultizg the taxpayers, and add the new debt on to the consolidated debt of twenty-seven millions.ALD.LAMARCHE'S MOTION.After all, the reports had been read it was moved by Ald.lamarche, seconded by Ald.Lavallee,\u20141.That the enlargement ot Lionsecours Market is necessary.as admmt- ta by the Finance Committee some time ago.- 2.\u201cThat, in view of the difference of opinion by the City Attorneys of clause 353 of the charter, regarding the borrowing of money for the enlargement of the market, that an application be made to the Legislature at the next «éssion for power to float a lean of $400,000 so as to enlarge the market.ALD.LAPORTE OBJECTS.À strong protest against any such way of raising funds was made by Ald.Laporte.He said it was unfair to the citizens of Montreal that the Lemslature should be asked to saddle.them with another debt ci $400,000.It might be that the improvement was badly needed, hut surely it was nat just to raise the money in such a way that those who would have to pay the interest on the loan should not have a word to say as to whether it should be raised or not.The new city charter, in a very clear clause, said that if the city desired to in crease its debt, over the amount at which it had been consolidated, the best way to pur- SURPRISING RESULTS.A Simple Internal Remedy Makes Remarkable Cures of Catarrh.People who have used sprays, inhalers, ralves and washes for catarrh and have found .how useless -and inconvenient they are, will be agreeably surprised at results following the use of a pleasant.internal remedy in tablet form, druggists everywhere admit that Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, which they sell at 50 cents for full sized treatment, is the safest, most effective and popular of all catarrh remedies.Nearly all cheap cough mixtures and thront lozenges contain opiates ; cheap medicines give a temporary relief especially with little children.by \u201cdestroy ing nerve sensation; the irritation in throat, which causes coughing, is temporarily removed, not hy removing the cause, but by deadening the nerves of feeling, the irritation is not felt, although it is still there and will promptly return.Stuart's Catarrh Tablets is the best re medy to remove catarrhal secretion, whe ther in the nose,throat or stomach, because they are composed of wholesome antiser- ties like Fucolyptol, Guaiacol, Sanguingria and Hydrastin: when you use these tablets vou know what you are tting into your system and not taking chances with cocaine, opiates er similar poisons found in so many catarrh cures and cough medicines.Dr.Ramsdell; in commenting on catarrh cures, says: \u201cI can heartily recommend Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, because they con- lain no cocaine nor other dangérous drug found in so many advertised catarrh cures.have known of many cases of long standing catarrh of the head and throat completely cured hy the daily use of these tablets for several weeks.e case in particular, which I could not \u2018reach with an inhaler or spray, and where the catarrh caused daily headaches and a noticeable loss of hearing, was entirely cured by this harmless but effective remedy.\u201d Dr.Wainwright says: \u201cI never hesitate to prescribe Stuart's Catarrh Tablets for catarrhal headaches and catarrhal deafness, because IT know them to be perfectly mafe for child or adult and have seen many remarkable cures resulting from their regular daily use; because they are advertised and sold in drug stores is no feason why any good physician should not use them, use we should seize upon the means of cure wherever found.\u201d Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are especially valuable for catarrhal colds in children, because they are pleasant to the taste and may be used freely to break up severe colds and croup at the very beginning \u2019 All druggists sell the remedy at fifty cents for full sized package.A litlle book on causé and cure of catarrh THE MONTREAL DAILY STAR\u2014TUESDAY, NOVEMBER sue would be to appeal direct to the tax payers for a special bylaw for such pur se.Such being the case where was the Justice of any alderman slighting the taxpayers and placing a big debt\u2019 upon them bevause of a mandate which might be got from the Legislature.He concluded oy asking the members to deal with the subfect in a manner that would reflect credit on the Council.OTHER IMPROVEMENTS NEEDED.\u2018Ald.Ekers\u2014\u201cWhen the project came up in the Finunce Committee to spend $400,- 000 on enlarging Bonsvcours Market 1 voted against it as the streets and sidewalks in the city were in a disgraceful condition and needed money spent upon them far more than an improvement was needed nt any market.e also sorely need a civic hospital, need our level crossings raised and need various other improvements.How can any member here, knowing these thin, go deliberately to work, and ask that a most halt a million be spent in enlarging a market?Uur debt has only recently been consolidated and we should not go to work and.raise it again.As to.borrowing this big sun without going to the taxpayers for consent such a thing cannot be thought of Ald.Roy showed that in St.Jean 'Baptiste Ward there was almost a complete dearth of sidewalks.What.should be done wus to Lorrow moucy to improve the appearance of tne city.So far as Ald.Savignac was concerned (and he had large ideas), he was in favour of asking the Legislature to allow the al dermen to borrow a very large sum, which could be spent upon the market, upon the streets, on the hospital and other things.Just how the huge sum was to be divided up could be decided after the city, fathers bad the disposal of it.- SOME STRONG REMARKS.In the most plain language, Ald.Ames informed the council that t proposition of Ald.Ravignuc, to get the Legislature to saddle the city with millions of more debt, without at all appaaling to the taxpayers, was one of the worst suggestions that had been made by the present council.It was acts, such as Ald.Savignac proposed, that had made the memories of past councils so bitter to electors.\u2018There was only one de- vent awy for the council to act, and that was If it needed money to go in a straightforward way to the electors and ask them if they would approve of the contemplated improvement.There were many other improvements needed besides the extension of the market in question.Money was sore- Iv needed for impravements to the streets.The sidewalks were m an unkept condition, aud there was also great need of getting the level crossings clevated.Tnstead of taking up the project alone of the extension of Bonsecours Market, all these projects should be considered and the electors usked 1f they would approve of the voting of two or three millions in order to effect them.There was no doubt that improve ments were needed, but, at the same time there should be no going to Quebec and asking the Legislature to crush the Montreal taxpayers with additional debt, and they not have a word to say about it.DID NOT LIKE SUCH ARGUMENTS.Ald.Lamarche did not like arguments such as voiced by Ald.Laporte, Ekers and Ames.He sud the ree PROF.REYNOLDS\u2019 ENTERTAINMENT.Owing to the inclement weather.the entertainment announced

but now, owing to the tariff in question, the firm I represent finds 10 cheaper to buy rice direct In England.Then there are pickles and goods of a similar description that we used to pure chase in Toronto and othrr Canadian cities, where they were manufactured.But what has happened mince the Intro duction of the preferential tariff ?We find it cheaper to go to England and purchase pickles.\u201cThe result of all this means that ous Industries have been discriminated against and that it will be very hard for them, in many [patances, to keep on doing busl- ness, they close u the wor will also suffer.P Kinsmen \u201cWhile 1 aun not very strongly opposeq to some preferential tariff, [ think the tule should have worked both ways, and that England should have been asked to give Canada a preferential tarift on products that would have helped the farming dis- tricta.It certainly fs not right that Ca nadian industries should be made to suf.Lor by a preference that ls only ones tded.\u2019 ee NEW MARINE INSURANCE Co, Another element Is being introducea the marine insurance ques inta ing up of the ;

THE COUNTRY AND THE WAR.: My Lord Mayor, we are.of course, open to the difficulty that we have to deal with cvents that are not yet quite concluded; Lut at all events they have gone far enough to show that the courage which, by reason of many examples, is traditionally associated with the English race has not in any degree lost its quality or di winished its value in the hands of those by whom that race is now represented.(Cheers.) The courage of the soldiers who have faced unknown conditions and carried victoriously the standard of their country through difficulties and dangers which few anticipated.\u2014that courage has been recognized y the people of this country, and no eulogy which any of us could add to it would increase the honour which has been bestowed upon it.Above all, the people of London have shown their appreciation of the valour of our soldiers.(Hear, hear.) At the relief of Mafeking, the relief of Kimberley, and the relief of Ladysmith\u2014on all these oe casions, and still more on the recent rc- turn of our gallant Volunteers to the city which sent them forth, the people of London have shown an enthusiastic and pas- cionate admiration for military valour which.I think, was not expected by those who had criticized the recent developmente of the English race, and wbich will add greatly to the position we shall occupy in the estimation of all who criticize us abroad.{Cheers.) Unfortunately we have not only to think of the brilliant triumphs which bave been won, or the tplendid examples of courage which have been displayed, but we have also to think of the losses which we have sustained and the gallant men whose.voices we shall never hear aguin.(Hear, hear.) It is a sud incident, an inevitable incident, and scldom hus it been felt more deeply than on the present occasion, when we have to mourn not only and not mainly those who have fallen in the field, but those who have fallen under the fell \u2018and pitiless ear, hear) Such a reflection reminds us that within the last few days we have heard of the loss of one of the Queen's grandsons, a man of singular merit and promise, devoted to his profession, whose career was looked for ward to with the greatest enthusiasm by all his friends, and who has fallen, .not under the sword, of the enemy, but by the terrible blow of disease.We all of us sympathize deeply with our aged Sovereign in the grief which she has experienced, and we all feel that this instance of the devotion of her family\u2014and the instance does not stand alone\u2014encourages us all in the performance of the duty which we owe to her Crown and to this country in sustaining the glorious traditions of the Empire which she represents.(Cheers) In saying this I cannot refrain from expressing what is felt, I have no doubt, by every person who hears me, and by num: bers throughout the country, and that is the deepest sympathy with Lord Roberts in the sorrow which threatens him at the t moment.(Hear, hear) He hna already suffered enough, and we earnestly pray that this trial may be spared to him.(Hear, hear.) But he will receive, at all events, such coneolation as may be derived from the deep and carnest sympathy of all his fellow countrymen for one who bas done and ered\u2019 so much for the country which he serves.(Hear, hear.) THE WAR OFFICE.We are naturally asking ourselves, after this \u2018year of vicissitudes, so full of emotions, so full of glorious deeds, how do we stand with reference to the opinion of the world and to our own pi ge and power?I need not speak of our courage, It was never seriously doubted, and it bas been fully justified and asserted.But we have \u2018things in this present war which were not so readily admitted and which: will alter very much the position which we held in the view of contemporary critics.The Here's people free from pain and ache Dyspepsia\u2019s direful ills It is because they always take .Laxa-Liver Pills.These little pills work while you sleep, witheut a gripe or pain, curing biliousness, constipation, dys ia and sick headache, and making you feel better in the morning, Heals and soothesthelungs and cures the worst kinds of - Coughsandcolda.eh #tsaty1 DR.WOOD'S NORWAY PINE SYRUP.three hundred thousand men in that space of time and with that perfection of equipment to a distance of 8,000 miles is a thing of which we should not have dreamt if it n discussed here 18 months ago.(Hear, hear.) It is a wonderful achieve ment of which the War Office ought to have the main or the entire credit; and it may counterbalance in your minds many of those nebulous and somewhat fictitious Attacks to which that unhappy office has been exposed during the last 12 months.(Laughter and \u201cHear, hear.\u201d) I should like, if it were possible in some tourj1ament oi debate, that the attack on the War Office and the defence of it should have a chance of being established before the world; but what I would request of you, who may be inclined to form from what vou read a hasty notion of the actions of the War Office, is that you are only judging one side.By the verv proper provision of our traditional Constitution, it is not the business of Ministers to say a word in derogation ol those who are, with them, serving under the Queen.But of course the question 1s somewhat altered if those who are serving with them under the Queen or who sympathize with that service, are disposed to cast upon their fellow-servants an undue share of the responsibility for what has taken place.There arc things said of the politicians; there are things said of the professionals.It is quite right that whatever is said should be carefully examined; but you must remember that the professionals are much more at liberty to speak than the politicians; and therefore you are doing in- Justice if vou conclude, until the matter has been thoroughly threshed out, that the blume of anything which has been done mainly or entirely lies with them.But I do not think that this is a matter which will occupy very deeply the consideration of the country in times to come.We shall be very glad to improve ali defects; we shall be very glad to till up all wants.I believe that the utmost efforts will be devoted to the task; but 1 should rather deprecate than encourage any unnecessary examination into the observations that have been made in respect of what has taken place in the past.You will not add to the en- thusiasin of your troops, and you will not add to the inefficiency of the machinery of government which you employ.THE COLONIES AND AMERICA, But what appears to me to be the most important part of our gains in this last vear is that we have established before the world what 1 thin kthe world did not thor oughly believe\u2014the hearty eympathy which exists between the colonies and the mother country.(Cheers) It is a result of enur- mous value.It has been fully achieved.The colonies have shown their interest in us by sacrifices which cannot be doubted; and from this time forth the estimate that is formed of the value of the colonial coance- tion, both in the eyes of foreigners and i our own, will be very different from what it -has been in times past.(Hear, bear.) Perhaps 1 may\u2014although it is not directly relevant\u2014take occasion to observe that one of the cireum- atances which has gratified me most in this past year is the very bearty and friendiy celing which has been displayed between this country and the United States.(Loud cheers.) I have the pleasure of having near me the distinguished representative of that country.(Cheers.) I hope he will forgive me any irregularity in my expression.[t ix quite wrong for a secretary of state to make any observations with respect to the internal politics of another country; but I am soon to give up that office (laughter); and in view of that atonement, which is close at hand, I hope he will forgive me for expressing the exireme satisfaction with which we have all of us heart of what has recently taken place in the United States.(Cheers) We believe that the cause which has won is the cause of civilization and of commercial honour.We believe that those principles lie at the root of all prosperity and progress in the world; and therefore we claim that we have as much right to rejoice in what has taken place as the dia- tiugwshed gentleman who sits bw my side.(Cheers.) THE OPERATIONS IN CHINA.Mr.Goschen, in the course of his speech, made some observations with respect to the gallantry of the naval and marine forces in the war in China.I entirely concur and earnestly support all he eaid.1 believe that if it had only been more in sight and nearer within the view of public opinion, there would \"have been a still higher sense than there has been of the enormous skill and wonderful gallantry which have been dis: played.But of that matter of China, as you know, I cannot speak with entire frec- dom, because we are one of a party ef al- hes who, in this matter, are acting in concert.Well, you know something of the concert of Europe.We have had some experience of it im the past.(Laughter.) We know that it has several very marked characteristics.(Laughter.) ne of them is that it tends to preserve peace among the powers of Europe.Anether is that it tends 1 to defer for a considerable period the solution of any problem which is in hand.(Hear, hear,\u201d aud laughter.) Therefore, with that condition going on it would be exceedingly inapproprate if I ventured on any criticisms or prophecies.But I may observe, because it has become a matter of public comment, upon a certain eement which has taken place between Germany and England on this matter.It is an agreement of no great eccentricity or peculiarity; because it represents, I! believe, the feelings which are entertained by most of the powera who are our allies.But it does lay aown these two important points\u2014that we desire to maintain the integrity of China, and that we desire to maintain what is called the \u201copen door;' that is to say.the maintenance of the practice of free trade at treaty ports.(Cheers.) T think it is a matter of cat advantage that the powers should ave expres themselves in favour of these fundamental principles.If these two things are achieved, I do not know that the issue of the China problem is one that need concern us very anxiously.'bese two things are the objects which we desire to maintain.e have been brought into this Chinese difficulty by an unexpected vicissi- tude\u2014by the threat that the ministers and their families would be exposed to fearful trials and possibly to extreme danger.That threat has passed away.We are now left only to watch and to assist the process by which China may return to a regular government, favourable to prosperity, and favourable to the encouragement of commerce, and by which we may combine with other countries in discouraging and frustrating the dangerous idea that this is a moment for invading the integrity of the Chinese Empire or for attempting with our scanty forces to approach the stupendous task of governing China, instead of leaving it to be | governed by the Chinese.(Cheers) 1} think that these would be great dangers, and that the declarations of the two Great Powers that these are not their objects may be of great advantage.NEED FOR STRONG DEFENCES.But these considerations rather lead us back to the idens that we have sometimes dealt with in this hall\u2014as to whether the omens of public life point to the dircour- agement of war and the increase of peace upon the earth.I am not sure what reply is to be given.It is quite true that quite suddenly two Powers\u2014the Transvaal and hinn; or the Empress of China and the President of the Transvaal\u2014have plunged themselves into war by addressing to us de- flances which it is impossible that we should disregard; President Kruger having addressed to us an ultimatum which we could not refuse to notice; and the Empress of China having attacked and threatened the life of our Ambassador.These events po doubt do not at all coincide with the hopes that were entertained and expressed at the Conference of Peace that was held at The Hague two years ago.1 do not know whether we are to consider this breakout of ignorance which was threatene and compromised the peace of the world as finally putting a stop to thoxe hopes of the increase of peace in which the Emperor of Russia and so many of the tentates of Europe indulged; but the.only matter we have to consider 1s how this affects our own future conduct, and the point which we have to bear in.mind is that, although Governments may have an appearance and even a reality of pacific intention, \u2018heir action \u2018is always liable to be superseded by the violent and vehement operations of mere ignorance, which acts with .cgular Goverhments -as much as it acted .with Yhose of the.Transvaal and of China.We cannot be certain that any Government » will not yield its powers to the less educat- achievement of sending betwcen two and) ts mr MUNYON\u2019S KIDNEY CURE When Prof.Munyon says his KIDNEY CURE ts a specific for nearly every form of kidney disease, he does not overstate the case in the least.It has won for itself à place among the almost infallible remedies.Tt will pot cure Bright's Disease In the advanced stages.It will not do the impossible, but It will cure every phase of kidney complaint, even the incipient stages of Bright's dlsease.Fifty-six other cures.All druggists.25¢ vial.Gulde to Health la free.Medical advice free.Write to Broadway and 26th street, New York.2331 3 1 3 : $00060000800006560006060 CREO OOOObbbbbbbblbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbhbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbhbbdhd \u201cOne Size.One Price.One Quality.TUCKETTS MARGUERITE CIGARS.| 00000000000 00000000000000 Rolled Gold Friendship Heart, 198, and Big 64 Page Christmas Catalogue \u201450c.TLeJ.E.ELLIS CO, Ltd.,3 King E, Toronto 273 2 2aw +++ 900000 \u2018ed and less enlightened classes, by whom more and more in many countries of the world public affairs are being governed.The moral 1x this\u2014that we must remain on our guard; and, bowever burdensome and painful it may be, yet for some period to .comé we must consider the defences of this country, scrutinize them carerully, examine all the machinery, administrative and miltary, by which they are sustained, and make it certain, or as certain as any human calculation can be, that we are not exposed to the danger of any sudden interruption of that peace on which all our prosperity depends.(Cheers.) There are many things which the Government has to do; there are many reforms and improvements in social conditions which it will be the duty of Parliament from time to time to under take, and which we hope may be undertaken with success; but above all these considerations rests this one supreme condi- tion\u2014that no reforms, no improvements are of the slightest value unless security from external interference is obtained.The progress of industry, which is, of course, the one great object that we have all to sustain jand to promote, depends above all things upon this condition-that our defences are in such a position that no ac cident that may happen beyond our borders shall make our security doubtful or interfere with the peaceful progress of industry, on which we depend.(Loud cheers.Ae SOLD DECORATIONS.Charge Made in French Chamber of Deputies Against Son of Minister for Colonies.PARIS, November 20.\u2014The alleged decorations scandal was discussed yesterday at the afternoon session of the Chamber.The reactionary press has hinted for several days past at an unpleasant exposure regarding trafficking In decorations.Finally It was said that M.Jean Decrals, son of the Minister of the Colonies, had been paid 20.000 francs for his influence to secure a Cross of the Legion of Honour for M.Edward Drumont.proprietor of the Libre Parole.Minister Decrals spoke feelingly on the subject, and sald the charge was false.M.Decrafs described the detalls of the decorations given by the Minister of Commerce and the method.followed, pointing to the reasons, for which the decorations were bestowed.; A lively debate followed, many deputies participating.The Government was asked to refer the subject to a magistrate, and others suggested a law to restrain the \u201ccalumnious press,\u201d M.Waldeck - Rousseau, the Premier, ironically replied, scoring the anti-Repub- lican press for descending to such methods in Its efforts to injure the Ministry.He claimed that the stories were nothing mora than political fabrications.The Government's explanations were approved by a vote of 379 to 31.\u201c THE BOY EVANGELIST.Two Weeks in Ottawa Netted Him $230.that the collections during the two weeks the boy preacher was in the First Baptist Church amounted to about $230, all of which went to the evangelist.There were three to share ft, Jack Cook, Hayden Cook and the business manager.Mr.Mitchell.In addition to the collection a large num of Jack's photos were sold.Pe WILL SUE INSURANCE CO.OTTAWA, November 20.\u2014 A case Involving the Bum of $11,000 will come up for hearing in the Hull Superior Court to morrow.Mrs.Laurin.of Gatineau Point, is suing five insurance companies for that amount.The companies are the LIverpool, London and Globe, Guardian, Royal, Victoria, of Montreal, and Imperial.t appears that Mrs.Laurin had some property at Gatineau Polnt burned last April.The companies, it is stated, refused to pay the insurance and hence the suit.\u2014{m0;-_ LIBERALS NOMINATED.THREE RIVERS, Que., November 20.\u2014 The following Liberal candidates were chosen in the conventlons Yesterday in this vicinity: Richard 8.Coo for Three Rivers;
