greatly exaggerated incident.Captain Dunn’s log has been received by the Minister of Marine, and in it the matter is treated as an ordinary occurrence of no great importance.The Petrel sighted the Silver Spray and gave chase.The Silver Spray turned and made straight for the Government cutter.When the former was almost up, the latter signalled for her to stop, but the tug rushed by at full speed.Captain Dunn fired a ride across the Silver Spray’s bow, but it failed to bring her to.Thereupon, to quote the log itself —“I then fired direct at her with several rifles, but the tug kept on, and as she was as fast as the Petrel, there was nothing to do but lay to until she was out of sight, when we put in for Port Stanley.” This exhausts the details in the log.The department have asked for more information, and Captain Dunn will make an extended report.Chamber of Commerce.Several Important Resolutions Adopted.Congress of Chambers of Commerce of the Empire, which had been sitting in Montreal since Monday closed on Friday at noon.During the forenoon resolutions were passed urging the British Government to order a full inquiry into the unsatisfactory working of the trade mark laws, that all Chambers should make recommendations for the assimilations of the various patent laws and the reduction of expenses in connection therewith, that the British Government be urged to hurry up with the codification of the commercial laws and that the Imperial Government be urged to remove the embargo on Canadian cattle.J.R.Booth’s Employees Quit Work.Demand Higher Wages.The entire staff and workmen, oxer eight hundred, employed :.y J.R.Booth’s sawmill, Ottawa, went on strike at noon on Thursday.They demand an increase in wages the details of which are not snowu yet.L is understood that

Printers Club of Montreal was the guest of the Canada Paper Co.at Windsor Mills.The party, to the number of between sixty and seventy, arrived at their destination in two special cars, attached to the G.T.express at eleven o’clock.Mr.F.J.Campbell, general manager of the Company, accompanied the guests from Montreal, and Mr.Cauldwell, the manager of the Montreal branch, and Mr Robertson, traveller for the Eastern division, looked after the comfort of the party.On arriving at Windsor Mills the party were joined by Mr.V.E.Morrill, of the Daily Record, and Mr.11.Logie, representing Messrs.Stevens A Price, of the Sherbrooke Examiner, and the company then proceeded on a tour of inspection of the immense works.There arc three distinct mills, and under the'guide of an official of the company, the first mill visited was where the finer grades of paper are turned out, such as book paper, etc.Although paper is one of the most common of articles used in daily life few are aware of the various processes through which it goes before it comes out ready for use.The strides that have been made in this line of manufacture has been enormous, and it is a common saying now’ that if a load of wood was dumped down at one end of a paper machine in a few minutes it comes out at the other end in paper ready for using.While this may be correct in some measure there is a certain amount of preparation to be gone through before it reaches the machine The Canada Paper Company have not yet completed their pulp mills, and as a result they have to purchase their raw material from the pulp mills in Quebec and the Lower Provinces.The wood used for this is chiefly spruce, and after the bark has been removed, the only process it goes through before the mills are reached, is that of passing through grindstones.This raw material is put into large vats, the contents of which are constantly moving, so that the pulp and the ingredients which go to form the paper is properly mixed.After passing through various agitators, etc., it passes on to the paper making machine.The liquid, for by this time it seems to be no thicker than milk, enters in a steady stream on to long screens, and ** it passes rapidly over this, begins to take a solid formation, and but a few feet from where the liquid enters a “pulpy” sheet passes over the rollers on to the machine proper, and at once assumes the color which the paper maker has sent before it leaves the vats.After passing over a large number of cylinders and rollers, which at every few feet are heated by steam, it arrives at the end on to the calendars, and is run into rolls.Hours could he spent watching these machines, and observing the nimbleness with which the workmen go about their work Each man has his station, and when a sheet breaks they are as well drilled as soldiers.After passing through the mill where the finer papers were made, the company were escorted to what is known as the Springvale Mill, where two large machines were running on newspaper for two large evening dailies in Montreal.The head papermaker, who had charge of the party, was very explicit in his explanations, and one of the visitors enquiring how they managed when the continuous I sheet broke, the superintendent gave a couple of whistles, ami immediate-1 ly the men sprung to their stations.The sheet was broken just where it comes from the screen at the end of the machine, and in a moment another end was caught and run from I cylinder to cylinder until the finishing end was reached, when as the ! sheet resumed its regular width it was caught and run on to the rollers all w'ithin a minute, j On finishing the inspection of this mill the party then proceeded to the I new’ St.Francis Mill of the company, which is situated on the banks of j the St.Francis.These buildings are 1 not yet completed, neither is all the machinery in running order, but the visitor was given an idea of the extent of the works.The large pa; er making machine in the mill is in running order, having been started a few days ago.The interior of the new’ mill is far superior to the other mills, being splendidly lighted, and having every convenience to expedite work.This machine is the largest of its kind in Canada, being one-third larger than any in use in the country today It is of the most improved pattern and occupies one large building.and have the latest ideas that Lord Salisbury Is Dead, Distinguished Statesman Passed Away on Saturday Evening.London, Aug 23—Lord Salisbury died peacefully at 9.05 o’clock last night.For forty-eight hours it was seen that the end was inevitable Even the administering of oxygen failed of effect this evening.A few few minutes after 9 o’clock the former premier turned slightly towards s favorite daughter.Lady Gwendo-ine Cecil, who was kneeling beside m, and then quietly breathed his st.All the members of his Lord hip’s family except Lord Cecil, were the bedside.Viscount Cranbourne, who now assumes the title of Marquis of Salis bury, immediately notified King Edward ami Queen Alexandra, the I*rince and Princess of Wales and others, including Lord Cecil, the sol-ier son of Lord Salisbury, who is now in Egypt, and who was the only hild of the Marquis absent from the ath bed.Scores of telegrams of ondolencc were received at Hatfield louse.The death of Lord Salisbury occur-ed on the fiftieth anniversasy of his ntranee into public life as a member f the House of Commons for Stamford.The elevation of Lord Cranbourne o the Lords creates a vacancy in the Rochester district, and probably will ntail the selection of a new under secretary of foreign affairs.at de S.P.LEET, K.C., — Mentioned as Probable Successor to Mr.Just.ce White.Among those who have been men-ioned as likely successors to

for the issue of licenses, and obtaining signatures in opposition to such applications.A most dastardly attempt was made in April last by the rum power of this province to induce our Provincial Government to impose licenses on the whole province according to population.and the liquor sellers urged the plea that such a system would very greatly augment the revenues of the Province.The Hon.Mr.Parent, prime minister, and the Hon.Mr.Duffy, at once took the noble stand that they would never sacrifice the morality of the people for revenue.All honor to these statesmen for their righteous decision on this question.” At the public meeting on Wednesday evening stirring addresses were delivered by W.H.Lambly, G.C T., the Rev.Mr.Waymen, Episcopal minister, Rev.Mr.Wright,
