MAN IN THE GATI- NEAU COUNTRY \u2014 STRANGE MYSTERY SEEMS CONNECTED WITH HIS FATE.Ottawa, May 20\u2014A pathetic of death, evidently from starvation wd exposure, came down from the Gatineau w-day.In November last a middle aged man, well dressed and intelligent in appearance and man- sr, passed through Maniwaki on bis way north, and peaple whom he met were given to understand that he «es going on a huoting expedition.He travelled alune and leaving Maniwaki passed through the Baskatong lintrict.Nothing wore was secn of aim until a day or so ago, when Joe Jocke, an Indien, found the dead hody of the stranger in an old hut rear HBaxkatong lake.A shanty, which was near the hut, had been wened down and in the lutter build- \u2018ng the remains were discoverad, then \"maciated and decomposed.Thera werr no evidences of violence, but it \u2018s believed that the unkmown, who ver he was, had been taken ill and, mable to make his way to any set.tement and with scanty food =~ col- \u2018peed hy the wayside and actually starved te death.The body was aken to Baskatong, where on Wedaesday Lhe Indians chanted a funeral dirge over the remains, and then nuried them.Who the stranger was, or what took bine avay wp thers without guide ar.comphnion.wil orobably never he known.From the decomposed state in which the body waa when found it is evident that death.occurred months

SPEAKS \u2014 THE HQUSE WILL HOLD NO SESSIORTO.DA Y.The only ness transacted in the egislative whly (his afternoon wos the waning of the debate on the motion Hon.Mr.Pelletier on the sec ing of the bill w umeud aw respecting the sale and man t ol public Innds, woods and s.The debate was a most _ interdating one, the Hon, PB.Pelletier, who con- ra his + nts, aud Hon, Mr.Gouin, who spoke until recess, moving the adjournment of the debate.- Hon, Mr.Pelletier began by nccus- ing the Colonization Comurissign of having ziven a differnt menni to the evidence given by Settler Lajoie than that which the latter really intended, and Mr.Pelletier read a letter from.Lajoie, who explains the evidence given before the Commissioners.Continuing, the member for Dorchester remarked that the Comms.Bic seewed to throw all the blame of the bad administration of the department on the shoulders of the agents who wre blamed for not having collected the million dollars due by the purchesers of lots , Wha about the responsibility of the de- partent Ÿ remarked Nr.Pelletier.Thin Gas suflicient proof that the Department of Crown lands was bud- Iv aduinistered.The Commissioners say, that forest rangers reside too far away from the arttiers, and therefore sre no\u2019 use to the latter.Na surptise should be manifested ii complaints were continually wade againet the departarent.The Government has to admit that and the Commissioners have done go Ju their report.There was po remedy offervd for the existing evils if the contents of the report \u201care- true, aml they appear is ke, the Provigte was on the verge ot à national peril.The l\u2019reanier and hix colleagues were responwible = for this state of things, hut none mors than the Commissioner of Colonize tion.The report condemned the latter's department as well as that of tbe Prime Minister.The Con:- missioners do not find fault with the land agents, forest rangers and the Government, but in their report also complain of the manner in which certain surveys vere made.The report of the Crown Lands Department did not give any =tatis- tics as to the quantity of lumiwr es- ported for pulp tu the Lnited States, although everybudy did know that it was increasing yearly.Why were the American companies, who were not interested in this Province, al lowed to rub our forests of the beat timber without paying the duty of 65 cents.Canadiana are not treated #0 leniently as that, Lut have to pay up.One of the officials of the depart- went had to acknowledge under oath that the returns recvived regarding the exportation of pul wood wre not correct.The clerks of the de- pañtment should nt be blamed for that, but the head of the department should, an be was supposed to know that The: returns were erroneous.leganding the dimensions of timber, the member for Dorchester, ine vited the Commissioner of Colonizattion to pay \u2018a visit to the St, Maurice region, where he woukl see the Americans cutting timber of qui, dimensions.The latter cul everyilring before them and act jus Fike the .speculators\u201d who out timber (run Finite belonging to others, He quoted from a report made by Mr.J.C.Langelier on the 1st June, 1902, which stated that frome 1900 10 June, 1902, the Crown [and Dee partment had lost duties on timdar exported to the Lnitid States amonntiyg to 8205,000.Ihering that riod 149,000 cords of pulp wood bad one to the States without any dues being paid.Speaking about ! the lumber merchants and settbers, Hon, Mr.Pelletier remarked that both were entitled to equal protection from the Government.What confidence could the lumber merchant place in a Government which pro.tecta and defends those who are robbing it?.on.Nr.* Gouin replird that the lumber merchant in this country ill: ed a very important position and whon he vas working for himself he was at the same time helyriner to de velop the country.The Commision.\u2018er of Agriculture was also favorable to the settlers who deserved to be treated with the greatest gencrosty and the present law should he well toceived by them as by the lumber merchants.Hon.Mr.Flynn.rrmarked Mr.Gouin, had meade a number of errors in Ms apeuch, and Hon.Mr.Pelletier had to @ crinie existing in this Province over colonization.The laws of colonization had bron alnwet the sante for over two hundred yours and the system now in vogue wan about the same an that in Ontario The Opposition were continually ery ing out chat the settlers had griev- aces, but hese grievances are not new and existed under preceding Cov ernments.Hon.Nr.Gouin

evening session Hon.Mr.Gonin continued hin spevcl, cemark- ing that the Government did ut consider itself obtgged to accept all the suggestions made by the Com mission, but wok the best augges- tions and fuvored a hill thereon which would be satisfactory even if mot perfect.Two embers of the House liad complained of the attacka made upon them by the Comunssionsrs in their report, and it was rumored that ane ot member would have siwilar entaplaints to make.The Commis sioners should have notified these deputies that certain charges had been made aginst them 50 ns Lo give them an occasion to defend them: wolves.He regretted the attacks made ff Mr.Major.M.P.P., on Mrd, \u20ac.Tancelise, Seeretary ot the Commission.and defendeet | Mosars.Legris, Thivierge and Brodie aguinst the attacke made upon them by Hon, Mr.Pelletier.The speaker then referred colonization «oeietien and said that the only one doing any practicable work was the Quebec nociety.The Montreal society, notwithstanding the cnergy of Mr.Carufel, in almost paralyzed and that was eaueml the fact that some of ite directors introduced polities inte the society.The Ligne Nationaliete, anid Mr.Gouin, endbraces fine ideas and no doubt the men at tha head of it are goed citizens, but he regretted the excesses of language which are used by some of ite members who wish to eruch those who do not think like themselves, He was fortunate in finding a copy of their programme to day aml was agreeably surprised 10 see that it contained the same ideas ae thow contained in the ill although the latter went further, The

colonization wax prosperous in this Provines and during the last thirty Years the rurai population instead of increasing had decreased about 50,- WG souls.This wa: an aprunent in favor of helping colonization.Merde Laval was the father vof colonization amd in his time the some diff- culties existed as to-day.At that tine Choxe that iraded in luxXser were protected, but so vas the settler.To-day the fight is hetween the lumber merchant awl the vettier.Should the foriwr he ill-trented ?Certainly mot, but do not let us confound the speculator with the bona fide settler who should be regarded as the proper person to clear tha land.Reference had been made to the seigniorial commission, leut the zettier vas re- wesentel, hut the present Governvent did.not think ft to have any ettler on this commission.In reading this report one would think that these | retters are all robbers, while the only guilty parties are the speculators.HH an able lawyer had licen named to represent
