Witness.WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 19S7 Mr.BtT.tar, SccretAry of Stite, denie* teat tlie American «Government have ordered the diacoctinuanceof the*ei/areg in Behring\u2019» >*a of Canadian cruisers, and he regards that 'jueation as quite outside of the scope of the < ommLuioo.The British (iovernment should demand an immediate settlement of this question also or else instruct the Pacifk aquadroa to protect the C anadian fishing vessels from what is undoubtedly piracy on the high seas.TiiRF.E Ferlt Steamius plying to the Exhibition grounds came into collision in Toronto Bay yesterday, and had it not been that the accident occnrred close to the wharves there would have been a serious loss of life.One life has been loet, and it is the duty of the Coroner's jury to discover the persons responsible for the calamity.The Marine Department should also iuvestigate the matter, particularly because it appears that the boats were very much overcrowded.A Wiv ifEi.Newspaper, which is said to be the organ of the Provincial (iovernment, ¦Uggests a conference between the Manitoba And Dominion Governments with a view to an Amicable arrangement of the Red River Valley Railway difficulty.It was understood that the Premier, Mr.Norquay, and the Treasurer, Mr.Lari viere, while Easton business connected with the railway, waited on Sir John Macdonald and attempted to come MIF, MONTREAL DAILY WITNESS.\tWednesday.,September 14, 1887.to some understanding with him.Has there bien a meeting Itetueeii members of the two Goxeriiiueuts, and if there lias been, lias any thing coine f it ' There docs not seein to be much room for a compromise.The Provincial Govern nient has spent u good deal of money upon the enterprise, and it is hardly likely that they will consent to relinquish it.TuKUK Was Not wind enough to make a race yesterday Itetwcen the \u201c Volunteer\u201d and the \u201c .Mayflower,\u201d which are competing for the honor of racing with the \u201c Thistle\u201d for the America cup.Yachtsmen regard it as a foregone conclusion that the \u201c Volunteer\u201d will be selected, and preparations for sailing against the \u201c Thistle\u201d arc hoitig made hy her crew just as if no trial races were to he sailed.There seems to be a growing impression that the \u201c Thistle\u2019' will win.The \u201c Volunteer'1 designer says that the builder did not follow the model in the construction of lier stern.This is regarded in sonicqu&rtcrs as ait excuse in anticipation ,»f the defeat of the \u201c Volunteer.'\u2019 The\u2018\u2018Thistle's\" captain, though apparently confident, expects a very close race.On his part he fears fouls with pleasure vessels on the course.Everything points to a very exciting race.There Skmms to be some chance that the sensible advice of the Montreal Flood Commission, that an attempt he nude to keep hack the Lake ice by placing a boom across lotke St.Louis where it narrows into the St.I-awrenoe, will he adopted by the Government.At least the Chief Engineer of the Public Works Department has pronounced in favor of the scheme.The City of Montreal has at last undertaken to protect itself, and the work of building a very substantial dyke along the water front is being actively pushed.In order that this dyke may have a fair chance of saving the city, it should be supplemented by the Lake St.Louis boom, which would prevent any heavy jams of ice upon it.This season lias been an extremely favorable one tu every way for the prosecution of such a work as the construction of this boon'.The nineteen cribs which form the most important part of the scheme could have been sunk with great ease, owing to the low water, and with ordinary enterprise the whole work could have been completed during the summer.The Ahhaelts on the Lord's day were made this summer in so many quarters at once that it seemed as though all public conviction on the subject of the need of a day of rest had collapsed.Sunday trains have been started on all our railways.Our ships are unloaded on Sunday.The Fraser Institute has been opened on Sunday.The Council of i he Art Association was understood to favor opening on Sunday, and now the Victoria Kink is in full blast os a place of Sunday evtning amusement, for, as Bishop Ussher rats, no lin itation of the music to what is called sacred will make a promenade concert, or a concert of any sort, anything* but a place of amusement.The object of the band is, we presume, to practice and to make money.When the Hink was first opened it was the work of good citizens desirous of making a harmh ss place of amusement for their boys ami girls.Dividends were entirely secondary.It has, however, become valuable property and is run for profit, and its management has, consequently, become soulless.The only place a commercial company can feel is in its pocket, so that, perhaps, the Bishop\u2019s proposal to refuse to patronize the Rink is the Ijest method of enforcing public opinion against this downward step.Bishop Ussher draws a sharp distinction between Protestants and Romanists in the matter of Sabbath observance, but all the anti-Sunday movements that we have recently deprecated have been Protestant movements.If Protestants are still inclined to keep the Lord's day better th an I toman Catholics they are taking queer ways of proving it.THE COMBINATIONS.\u201cThe RT7nz*s goes togreatextremesindealing with the coal ami sugar combinations.It is doing it for party ends.It is an uniniti-g ited crank.There U nothing very wrong in the course of the grocers who, finding that sugar was made a cut article, met and agreed not to sell under a reasonable profit ; or of the coal men who, finding that sornt of their number aold under cost in the hope of making it up in bad weight, resolved that they would all sell at the same price.\" A few days ago a man was sent to gaol for a im nth an i for two months longer if he could not pay a fine for trying to persuade certain workmen to enter a corn bication to fix the price of wages, it would 1 c nonsense to say that he was punished thus for standing on the side walk.If : might 1 ave *to«»d there all day selling can ly without lieii.g to !\u2022 Vd.His real offeii e was trying to get bis fellow workmen to corn bine \\Vu bave always been unfavorable to woi'kingmeii'-s combinations, Imcause the temptation to enforce them by persecution, and even violence, is so great as t be their natural fruit.But how can wo lift up our voice against artizans' boycotts if wo arc to countenance those of traders ?is it wmrsu for workingmen to unite to fix tbo price of labor and.to extend their organization by active propagandism, than for bakers to lix the priev of bread ?Tito latter is practically worse, for it can be and is joined in by every baker in the city, and is intended to increase tbo cost to the whole population of a necessary of life.With workingmen no such monopoly is |K>ssihlc that is, without illegal pressure.But even for the bakers we demand perfect freedom.They have a right to come to any agreement they like so long as any one else can build an oven who likes, and sell\tbread us cheap as at the cash Imkery without any interference from them.Our only duty in such a case is to encourage every ouo wh > breaks the combination.From thoexplanations of some coal mc-n visited by our reporter, their com bination would seem to bo similar to that of the bakers and barlmrs, but there must be something less desirable about their bargain than what they tell or they would not, ono after another, refuse to let their by-laws be seen.They certainly arc not and cannot bo protected by duties which force the price high above the price abroad.As a recent correspondent pointed out clearly, the sugar men are in a different position, being able, by mutual agreement, to maintain the price | of a necessary of life at the highest point the tarit!' will allow.They, unfortunately for their success, fixed their selling price a shade higher than the tariff would cover.The protection accorded hy the tariff to sugar ami cotton was granted on the distinct understanding that competition would be free within the country, but it seems to lie a mistake to expect that people w ill not make use of any weapon put into their hands when they feel tho need of it, as we presume these manufacturers do most keenly.From the first we have asserted that the manufacturers themselves would, in the natural course of events, lie among the chief sufferers from the protective system.We have the sincercst respect and the kindest regard for many men in all these combinations, and we have never had a more grievous duty than that of opposing them.But the 117/\u2022 ne»* has had but one motto since it started, and that is, where there is a right side and a wrong side to a public question the IFUnou throws its w hole strength on the right side regardless of consequences.SUNDAY CONCERTS.f To the Editor of the tVitneu.I Sib,\u2014I have waited for some one else to break the silence by a vigorous proteat against the desecration of the Lord\u2019s Day by the authorities of the Victoria Skating Rick, who, I suppose, are responsible for having permitted concerts for an admission fee to be held in their place of amusement on Sunday evenings ; but I cannot refrain longer, and I desire now to give my unqualified ccti'1i-it nation of a I'atisian practice imported via London, New York, and Chicago, originating in godless greed and a desire to make the \u201cday of rest\" a day for money getting.To give the affair a religious aspect by calling it n \u201d sacred concert\u201d is to add hypocrisy to the desecration.Were it a fact that the Victoria Skating Kink was in the hands of Roman ists it might be a matter of regret, but not surprise to I'rotestants that it should be opontsl as a place for Sunday amusements ; but the fact that its othcers and most of its shareholders arc Protestants makes it a deliberate insult to Protestantism from within itself, which should tie most distinctly and decidedly rebuked in a way to make these gentlemen undirstand that they have officially transgressed, and that most flagrantly.Tho band of the Victoria RiHes is largely composed of French Roman Catholics, if I am correctly informed, and they wonld as soon play on Sunday as Monday, and a waltz as well as sacred music ; but it would «eem as if the regiment ought to have something to say concerning its name being associated with so grave a breach of God\u2019s law, and most certainly the royal lady whose name is associated both with the Rink and the Regiment would not consider that luatre was added to it in either case, aeoing that ahe herself is such a rigid observer of the day of the Lord.There is one way in which to bring those lax Protestants to their senses, and that is for the Protestant parents and adult n embers of faint lies to rvi'use to take tickets for the Victoria Bkaiing Kink this season, unless the Lori\u2019s Day dishonoring cease forthwith.This is an enforcement «f a Divine statute that ne*d* neither judge, jury, nor Chi*f of Polico to carry out-only a righteous determination on the part of those who believe in the command \u201cRuineui' Ur the Sabbath day to keep it holy and every Protestant pastor should counsel his fl.ck to adopt the course suggested.It st>«akH but poorly for the business management of the Rink if the attractions provided on week days are not of such a character as to make it pa)L but they must adopt the Him»y scheme of a Sunday concert to suiiplement a m-edy exchequer.Let I\u2019rotestants snow in the way indicated that th> y will not countenance so great an outrage on the requirements of their God and his church, and if it is to be continued h-t it be fully under stood that the audience doe* not consint of Protestants.\tB.B.Uhhiick.P.S.-I would also like to enquire how it is that 40 vile a sheet as the
