actually paid St.Charles Branch Rail- way ; estimated cost including land, damages, $500,000 ; actual expenditure, $l,7.‘i2,238.I-angevirie Block, estimated cost $440,000 ; expended, $772,000 with an outstanding claim of $205,(100.Çur-ran Bridge, estimated cost $223,000 ; actually paid $405,000 ; still claimed $70,000.Mr.Davies also re called the Quebec Harbor Works frauds, Levis Docks steal, Ksquimault Dry Dock job.After referring to the disgrace these scandals had brought upon the country Mr.Davies said : “It therefore behooves us to watch carefully the contiacts which are now being carried out : and it having been brought to my knowledge that there was a possibility—nay a probability of a very grave scandal in connection with the construction of Soulange Canal contracts I thought it my duty to move for the papers.” The case summed up is this.Goodwin had, according to the engineer’s statement, been permitted to practically abandon his work after doing the easiest part of it.The government held money as security from Goodwin to ensure the completion of his contracts but Haggart did not enforce the law.Goodwin, however, set up a claim for a watertight embankment which, if allowed, would have given him $210,000.Not only that for if his claim were admitted the other contractors (my Grit friend included) would have been able to have claimed extras on the same sort of work to the extent of half a million dollars more.The chief omnn-er, Mr.Munro, in denouncing Goodwin’s claim said : “That is to say the government would have to pay the contractor $210,000 for alleged work which was neither necessary to he done—nor was it done, nor ordered to be done.If such a preposterous demand as this were entertained on these sections there would be no reason why other contractors should not be similarly dealt with.This would result in the canal costing from $500,000 to $750,000 more than my estimate for earth excavation, whilst in my humble opinion not a shadow of valid excuse could bo given for such a course.” So wrote the Government’s chief engineer.The case was referred to Sir John Thompson as minister of Justice and he reported against Goodwin’s claim.This was in March of 1874.The chief engineer ; his three assistants, the Deputy Minister of Railways, his law clerk and Sir John Thompson had all held the same opinion.The next we hear of the case is in a letter written by the Deputy Minister of Justice on 15(11 January 18!M> informing the Minister of Railways that the ex-minister of Justice, Sir Charles Tapper had before going out of the department on the 7th January, verbally told him Goodwin’s claim should be allowed.Although there was no written opinion or reason given by the department of Justice Haggart seized upon the opportunity and ordered the auditor general to pay Goodwin this, notwithstanding that his engineers had positively refused to certify to the accounts.But the Auditor General refused and, as he is empowered to do took the opin ion of outside lawyers who sustained him The only fear now was that the treasury-board might over rule him and the Auditor General laid the whole case before the Premier, Sir Mackenzie Bowell who said the claims should not be paid.There the matter stands.Had this deal between Haggart’s department and Contractor* Goodwin not been exposed, had not public attention been drawn to it through these letters T have positive reason for stating the money would have been paid to Goodwin.A feature of the development in this case that will strike everyone as a little strange, odd or shady, is the verbal opinion of the ex-Minister of Justice, communicated to Haggart by the Deputy -Minister and upon which action was taken.What will the country think of such a deal ?Does it look straight ?The elections are approaching and we must have the amunitions of war ; is that Haggart’s view.I hear to-day that his defence will bo (list he never intended the account should be paid ss it went to the Auditor-General without the engineers certificate.Too thin Mr.Haggart.You have been a darn expensive luxury for thetaxpayers of Canada ;

Gkntu MFN, — During the winter of 1892 my blood became impure on account of the hearty food I ate i»4 the cold weather.Ambition, energy and success forsook me, and all my efforts were in vain.My skin became yellow, my bowels became inactive, niv liver was lumpy and hard, my eyes became inflamed, my appetite was gone, and the days and nights passed in unhappiness and restlessness For some months I tried doctors* and patent medicines of every description, but received no benefit.Being advised by a friend to try I am glad to have the opportunity of testifying to the marvellous result.After using three bottles I felt much better, and when the fifth bottle was finished l enjoyed health in the greatest degree, and have done so from that day up to date.Therefore I have much pleasure in recommending B.B.B.to all poor suffering humanity who suffer from impure blood, which is the beginning and seat of all diseases.J.Gillan, B.A., 39 Gould St., Toronto.MONTREAL MARKET.April 21, 1896.Flour, straight roller, per bbl., — $ 3 90 Flour, strong bakers, per bbl.3 75 Oats, white, No.2, per bush.29 Hams, per lb.8 ( 'heese.8$ Butter, creamery .20 Eggs, fresh, per doz .11 Beaus, car lots, per bushel.95 Potatoes, per bag.32 At Montreal there were 100 head of cattle, 800 calves, 150 sheep, and 00 lambs offered at the East end market.The butchers were out in full fore»*, but the prices continue rather loo high to suit their fancy, so they bought sparingly, in the hope of more liberal supples in the near future The best beeves sold at 4c pur lb., with a few very choice animals at I j: pretty good animals sold at 3j to 3Jc;
