And Against the Dominion Government In the Sarsaparilla Case.The Chief Justice Severely Condemns The Methods of Customs Officers.(SPECIAL TO THE HERALD.) Orrawa, June 27.\u2014Chief Justice Sir William Ritchie rendered judzment in the Exchequer Court to-day in the celebrated Sarsaparilla case in which the .Government claimed $237.202, treble value un goods imported aad $148,011 for unpaid duties.The Ayers are manufacturers of sarsaparilla, hair vigor, pills and other compounds at Lowell, Mass, and in 1862 started a branch establigh- went at .t.John\u2019s, NB.The material was imported in a crude state and ternards prepared in the Domin- sn, bottles and other articles cing purchased here.By this method Le company only had to pay duty nm thefair marketable value of the compound.Fur some twenty years the Ayers continued their importations until 1882, whem Underhill, an employee of theirs who bad teen dismissed, laid information at Montreal azainst them for importing at under value.Acting on this information officers O'Hara and Brosseau, of Montreal, made seizures at various points in the Dominion.The Ayers disputed the rights of the Customs to make these seizures, and lust year the case came on befure Chief Justice Sir William Ritchie.Inthe court this morning there were present Messrs.McLennan and Mctuib- bon of Montreal, counsel for the Ayers, Mr.Dan.O'Connor, for the Crown, Mr.Ferguson, Mr.Cussels, registrarof the Supreme Court, and Mr.Audette, registrar of the Exchequer Court.THE JUDGMENT IN THE CASE.The Chief Justice first read extracts from the evidence of Mr.Mansfield, the agent of the Ayers who started the branch at St.John, with tbe object of showing that before importing the medicine every effort was made to obtain ia- formation respecting the duties on the articles and nothing was concealed from the customs authorities.Mr.Mansfield\u2019s evidence was corroborated, the Chief Justice said, by The practice of the customs\u2019 officers at St.John.His Lordship then proceeded to quote the evidence of the collector of customs at St.John and Inspector Wolfe, who all testified to the facilities given the customs officers fur examining the preparation of the Ayers as they were imported.The judge commended upon the fact that Mr.Andrews, of Montreal?was not called to state what was done with the samples, or what the appraisers did in connection therewith.The business of the Ayers was carried on without any objection, remonstrance, complaint, or interruption of any description, or any notice or intimation of auy irregularity or impropriety on the part of the Ayers by the customs authorities of St.John or at Ottawa, and from the time the business was startad until 1885, when the customs officers seized in the principal cities of the Dominion the compounds of the Ayer company, and this paralized and de stroyed the business of the extent of which some idea might be gatbered from their purchases and expenditure in Canada iu preparing the goods.For three years PREVIOUS TO THE SEIZURE the enormous amount of $50,760 was paid for advertising the article in Canada, and the t tal expenses were shown by a statement laid before the court to be $31,302.He felt it to be the bounden duty of the court, in face of the action of the customs authorities, to ascertain whether there had been or not an unfair construction of the revenue laws, otherwise mercantile and business men in the kingdom would be placed in the greatest jeopardy.He must administrate the law as it was, but before be declared the law to be such as was contended he must be satisfied beyond all doubt that such was the law.He was bound to say he could not understand how honest business men like the Ayers, making honest importations, in order to carry on business in the Dominion could do more than they had done in this case, viz, to apply the customs authorities to understand on what terms the goods could be imported into Canada, nor could be understand that honest and cautious men could do more in the case.He had made a careful examination of the various invoices and entries, and found that the first contained very clear and explicit directions.His Lordship dealt with other invoices separately, the particulars in which were clearly specified.He pointed out that in a great many instances invoices were sent to Ottawa and never returned.He COMMENTED IN BEVERE TERMS upon the action of the dismissed employee of the Ayers who went to Montreal and \u2018concocted a scheme\u2019 with O\u2019Hara and the other customs officer, who appeared to have acted on their own responsibility in making the seizures.The Ayers commenced their business in 1862 and appeared to have dealt with the Customs in a fair, open and business manner.Although they were exculpated morally of any imputation of fraud, they were charged with the disgraceful offence of smuggling.His Lordship defined the term smuggling and went on to examine bow far this applied to the Ayers.It was laid down that the revenue laws should receive such fair construction as should best ensure the protection of the revenue, and the attainment of the pur- oses for which such law was passed.e did not understand that laws im- pcsing duties were to be construed upon the natural import of their language, or duties or taxes imposed upon terms of vague or doubtful interpretation.He was of opinion that any doubtful interpretation or construction should be IN FAVOR OF THE IMPORTER.In the case of Cox vs.Rubbits Lord Cairns said: \u2018Taxing must be considered strictly.You must find words to impose the tax and if words are not found to impose the tax it must not be imposed.\u2019 The evidence as to the fair market value appeared to be overwhelming and un- contradicted .and went to show that Ayer's goods were never sold in bulk and at no market value beyond the value of the ingredients of which they were composed.The Chief Justice referred with considerable emphasis to the course likely to be ; taken in regard to the importation of aie in casks and duty paid upon them.The Wm, customs officer would have no right to | ipquire what the importer inted to do with them whether to drink or bottle it, | FIRING RED HOT SHOT.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014>o< O\u2019Brien\u2019s tions.Denuncia- \u2019 or dispose of it in bulk or bottle.There : .would be | Mr.Gladstone Hits Straight NO AUTHORITY WHATEVER | to justify such action if the entry had been properly presented and the legal duty paid.Suppose, for instance, the ale | is imported from England, the buttles from the United States, and the corks : from Spain or Portugal, and all such | duties as provided were duly paid, the importer intending to put it on the market as bottled ale?Under these circumn- | stancea which of these articles should | pay the full duty?The importer would ! say, \u2018 We intend to use these bottles and corks for the ale we expect to receive.Would it not be an absurdity for a customs officer to insist upoa a duty of eighteen cents per gallon because as he said the importer in-: tended to defraud the revenue by bottling the same, becausa he thought the importer intended w use the botues and corks at some future time for bottling the ale.The Chief Justice expressed a belief in the truthfulness of Underbill when he was employed by the Ayers, but thought that in laying information sgainst them lhe was actuated by a de- site for Tes enge and a wish to make a few thousand dollars fer himself.Tle dwelt upon the fact that the books of the Ayer company were surreptitiously obtained and kept in the custody of the customs authorities at Montreal and although an order from the Supreme Court was made the Ayers were never allowed access to them.He pointed out that from the evidence of (Hara, the customs officer, they were kept in the safe of the Montreal customs house for the purpose of preventing the Ayers from getting at them.His Lordship said that the man- per in which the customs officer, Brosseau trafficked in the proceeds he expected to receive, the manner in which O'Hara and Brosseau set at defiance the order of the Surpreme Court to deliver up the books, kept witnesses out of the way, and the equivocating and discreditable manner in which they give their testimony was in his opinion open to the gravest censure.He regretted IN THE INTERESTS OF JUSTICE and of the business community of the Dominion who might have controversies with the customs officers, that he should be compelled to make these observations in reference to persons holding responsible positions at Montreal, whose duties were to obey the order of the Supreme court, and who instead of setting at defiance and putting obstacles in the way should have acted with great propriety and treated all questions on the part of claimants with a fairness, honesty and truthfulness which he very much regretted to say was far from being the case.He added that the Customs officers had acted as partisans who took an interest in the result instead of .siring to see justice done to all parties, and with an apparent determination to effect at all hazards a condemnation.The Chief Justice concluded by adjudging that the Ayers had not made any attempt to, nor did they pass the Customs at St John with bottles of patent medicines, that there was no proof of certain patent medicines mentioned being under value, that there was no proof that goods illegally entered into Canada were kept for sale and that there was no intent to defraud the revenue.The 1nformations of undervaluation and of defrauding the re venue were therefore dismissed with ccsts, and the goods seized were ordered to be restored.These goods are understood to be\u20144,319 doz.of sarsaparilla, 28,022 of cherry pectoral, 4,446 of hair vigor, 936 doz of ague cure, and 192 doz.packages of pills.\u2014 FROM THE DOMINION CAPITAL, New House ¢f Commons

Mr.Lessard, editor of that paper.Mr.Lessard, it is said, tried to crowd Mr.Vanasse out, but Mr.Langevin stood by his protegee and the result is that Mr.Lessard will soon assume control of La Presse, which will be conducted as an anti-Langevin Tory organ.Messrs.McLean, Roger & Co., parliamentary printing contractors, are to receive $6,000 from the Government for the use of their building and plant for one year, and $10,000 as compensation for cancellation of their contract five months before its expiration.A.F.Holmes, of Napanee, is to command the new steam cruiser which has been fitted out for

WASHINGTON BELLE.Mr, and Mrs.Chaska Visit Papa-in-Law.WAsHINGTON, D.C., June 27.\u2014An odd looking couple attracted much attention on Fifteenth street to-day, The gentleman was dressed in ordinary attire, but was evidently a full blooded Indian, and from the awkward way he wore his store clothes, a newly caught one at that.The lady was the type of the ordinary Washington belle, youhg and pretty, but rather more sun browned than is usual with city belles.Investigation showed that this oddly assorted couple were man and wife, and further that the lady was Cora Bell Fellows, daughter of Col.Fellows of the Interior Department, whcse marriage with the Indian half breed Chaska made such a sensation a few weeks ago.Mr.snd Mrs.Chaska are on a visit to the bride's father, whose evident

them yesterday they were determined to score heavily tonight.Their big guns were brought into play atan early hour, and it cannot ba denied that they produced considerable commotion.William O\u2019Brien is now about the most effective speaker in the Parnellite ranks.There is more passion aod fire in him than in Parnell or Sexton, more sus- taired declamatory force than in John Villon.Itie said by those who know Lest that scercely any man is now so powerful in Ireland.At any rate, wben he rese this afternoon to address the House of Commons, be was received with a great outburst of cheering and it was some moments before a word he uttered could be heard.O'BRIEN FIRST DEMOLISHES SAUNDERSON.He began in a calin, measured tone, but had not proceeded far before a great change passed over him.Theriversoon overflowed its banks.Col, Saunderson\u2019s speech last night was dismissed with a few half contemptuous words and a solemn reminder that whataver it may have been in the past the government of Ire- Jand is now no laughing matter.Then the storm burst on I.Russell's devoted head.Brien referred tothe use which Russell made last night of the boycotting cf Norah Fitzmaurice.He could not help thinking, he exclaimed in a voice which thrilled with emotion and sent an involuntary thrill through the House, how many thousands of Nora Fitzmaur- ices had been flung oft into the gutter to die or to meet a still worse fate in the streets of New York and other American cities by the landlords of Ireland.Prolonged cheering greeted this sentence, uttered with gleaming eyes and pallid face, the speaker himself evidently being under the strongest excitement.HE MADE THE HOUBE ATTENTIVE.He was trembling all over, some one told me who sat near him, and we could all see and feel the profound earnestness of the man.Onward he went, fascinating Lis own friends and compelling a reluctant tribute of admiration from the Tory benches, where at least unbroken silence prevailed.Gladstone bent forward listening eagerly to every word.Harcourt condescended to lend an attentive ear, From point to point O\u2019Brien advanced until be came to Rome, and there the\u2019 instinct of the audience suggested that he was on exceedingly dangeroms ground.He spoke of the Government skuiking over to Rome to get its arm reinforced by the Holy Inquisition, for thus he styled the Vatican.His Irish friends cheered, but 1 fancy they were 1elieved when he made a sudden return from Rome to Ireland.DOWN GOES MASSARENE.Then he discharged a cloud of poisoned arrows at Lord Massarene, denouncing Lim as he declared Sir Redvers Buller bad done, as a profligate, drunken sot.\u201cThese be your gous, Ô Israel !\u201d he exclaimed in a bitter tone.\u201cThese are the men you delight to honor, while you put a felon\u2019s garb on Jobn Dillon.\u201d Again a burst of cheering compelled Lim to pause.He defended the plan of campaign and a tempest of wrath seemed to fall on the l:ead of its assailants.Finally he made another savage lunge at the Liberal Unionists.The Government, he said, would not be beated.The Liberal Unionists and\u2014 T.W.Russell\u2014\u201cHear, hear !\u201d He cheered a little too soon.O'Brien went on to say the Liberal Unionists were living in a condemned cell, and they would naturally vote now for the abolition of capital punishment, or at least for a postponement of tke fatal day.A glowing peroration declaring Ireland\u2019s undying faith in her cause brought to a conclusion one of the most magnificent pieecs of declamation ever listened to.CHAPLIN\u2019S WEAK REPORT.Mr.Chapiin, representative of the tory agriculturalists, followed, a long way off.lt was like a coantry waggon jolting after an express train has just flashed past.The House speedily thinned and remained half empty till Mr.Gladstone rose, when another dramatic scene occurred.Chaplin had levelled some Leavy and awkward sarcasms at the liberal veteran on account of his age.They seemed to be be in abominable taste, but that, perhaps, is Chaplin's affair.Mr.Gladstone thought proper to allude to them, and he did so in a way which Chaplin is not likely to forget.He said that undoubtedly he felt in some respects the encroachment of age, but hoped that for a little while yet (Here a wild burst of cheering stopped him, and he stood at the table, grave and dignified in manner, yet confronting his antagonist with ail the courage of youth.) \u201cI shall be able for a little while, I hope,\u201d he went on, with withering scorn in his looks and voice, \u201cto cope with antagonists of the calibre of the right bonorable gentleman.\u201d GLADSTIONE\u2019S TREMENDOUS ORATORY.It is needless to say with what laughter and cheers tnis thoroughly Parliamentary yet scathing retort was received by the House.Nor was the laugh by any means confined to the Liberal benches.This wonderful old man then continued for over an hour and a half, analyzing evidence, discussing decisions of courts, pulling resident magistrates to pieces, calling Balfour and Gcschen sharply to account for what they have said or done.The utmosphere was excessively oppressive, torrents of rain were falling outside, but no fresh puffs of air came in through the open windows.The beat seemed to try Mr.Gladstone heavily, and it is marvellous that he was able to pursue his argument to the end.He wiped the perspiration from his head till his handkerchief got rolled up into a wet ball, but he never lost his grip on the case he was presenting to the House, and showed no signs of that failing memory with which Chaplin had so ungenerously reproached him, At last he sat down, everybody feeling relieved that so great an effort had come successfully to an end, Then, in- \u2018When Baby was sick, we gavo her Castoria, \u2018When she was a Child, she cried for Castoria, \u2018When she became Miss, sho clung to Castoris, \u2018When sho had Children, she gave them Castoris, deed\u2019 there was a rush out of the House, and a member who rose to carry on the debate was lett like a \u201c voice crying in the wilderness.\u201d BALFOUR TALKS IN VAIN.Before ten o'clock Balfour began a speech which was destined to be an énor- mous length, and which was by no means a lucid exposition of his case.His warmest admirers were obliged to admit that he was diffuse and rambling to an almost unexampled degree.The hands of the clock moved round toward twelve, and be was still wandering on in a somewhat aimless way.He was a good deal interrupted by the nationalists, and the Speaker had to interpose in an empbatic manner.It must he confessed that the story became a little weari- scme.SEXTON\u2019S SARCASM.The appearance of Mr.Sexton on the scene was bailed with shouts of joy by his party.His sarcasms flew out in showers, and greatly delighted all on his cwn side even if they were not much relished on the other.The Mouse was densely packed.Every corridor was crow ded, many members being unable to get into the Chamber itself.At last after much excitement and high feeling the division was taken, and the numbers were declared to be for the motion 273, against 366\u2014majority 95.\u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 FROM THE PRAIRIE CITY.The Election Camprign\u2014 Anthracite Mines Closed\u2014Gold Discoverles.\u2018WinxirrG, Man., June

QUEBEC LEGISLATURE.Sixth Parliament\u2014Second Session: \u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 (SPECIAL DESPATCH TO THE HERALD.) QUEBEC, June 27.The House met at 3.15 p.m.After routine, Mr.J.8.Hall, Jr, introduced a bill respecting the law of libel in certain cases.Mr.Lussier enquired if the Govern ment intend to pay the travelling expenses and the expense of settlement of French-Canadians emigrated to Lowell and Lawrence and other parts of the United States, and who would come to settle on our lands, as they have done for immigrants from the remotest parts of Brittany.The Premier said the expense for the \u2019mmigrants from Brittany was excer- tional, and there was no intention to ay for those from the United States.Then Mr.Leblanc wanted to know f there were any other persons ther than those mentioned in the votes and proceedings of the House who reccmmend an increase of salary to Mr.Allan Hamilton, employed in the otlice of the Clerk of the Peace at Montreal, the names of such persons for each of the two increases of galary, and was told by Mr.Turcotte there were none.After which Mr.Pou- pore asked if it was the intention of the Government to print the English translation of the manual for rural inspectors by Mr, Colfor and to distributa the same in English districts and was answered in the affirmative.Mr.Lafontaine\u2019s motion that a select committee be appointed to assist Mr.Speaker to revise the rules and standing orders of the House, in so far as they relate to private bills, was adopted after some discussion.\u2018The reforms are two in number, to raise the fee from $100 to $200, and name one English and ona French officer to revise all the laws on private bills.Another lengthy discussion arose on the House going into committee on the bill to amend article 497 of the Munict- pal Code.Dr.Cameron objected to a clause which he said would spread the St.Barbe affair all over the townships parishes, and this was struck out, but not before it came out that the clause had been put in at the suggestion of Mr.Auger, late M.P.for Shefford.Thereupon Hon.Mr.Lynch made a \u2018serious charge against Mr.Auger in connection with this act.Hon.Messrs.Gagnon and Flynn continued the discussion up to six o'clock, when the House rose for recess.AFTER RECESS.After routine the discussion on the municipal code was continued nearly all the evening, the country members, as a rule, objecting strenuously to many of the clauses, which, they pointed out, seriously affected parishes in their counties.The committee reported the bill, and Mr.Beauchamp moved in amendment that the bill be not read a third time, and was defeated by 18 yeas to 20 nays.The main motion was carried and the bill read a third time and adopted.Mr.Spencer moved the House into committee on his bill providing for the taxation of personal property.He spoke strongly in favor of the principle of the bill, and was supported in thg main by Mr.McIntosh, who asserted that, though the bill was not perfect, thers were some good points in it.It was a fact taxation was unequally divided in the country municipalities, as there were many men who dealt in mortgages and who paid no taxes for the keeping up of roads, bridges, &e., and yet used them oftener than these who improved their farms and paid taxes.Mr.J.S.Hall, jr, upset the argument of the previous speaker in a brief speech.À vote was taken, and the bill killed, only seven members voting in its support and 33 against it.Mr.Bisson\u2019s bill, amending the Act respect ng the formation of companies for stoning roads, was read a third time and passed.The House adjourned at 12.30 a.m.NORTHWEST ELECTIONS.A Conservative Wilderness.WisnireG, Man., June 27.\u2014The elections in the Territories to-day wers more of a personal than a political nature.The majority are Conservatives so far elected.The following returns have been received :\u2014 South Regina\u2014Secord, 131 ;

There has been a decidedly slow and sleepy atmcsphere in the banks of the city during the past week, and the really quiet term in the city financial affairs has fairly set in.There las been practically no discounting done except the business of regular mercantile customers, which during the latter half of the month is very slender.Funds for grain handling have scarcely been called for, and there are no new undertakings to call for any.Altogether the situation is a dull one, and may be summed up in the words of one manager, who stated that any bank in the city could, and would be glad to handle twice the present volume of business, could good business be had to that extent.Although the situation is dull, the feeling is decidedly hopeful, and the splendid condition of the growing crop makes all feel buoyant.The circulation of money in the country is evidently not too free, and cash returns therefore are rather slow.The rate of discount for good commercial paper is quoted at8 per cent, with a few favored parties doing business at 7.In real estate mortgage business, the calls for new loans come in steadily, though not in heavy volume, and there are still some interest payments coming in, although they have been few of late.The interest rate is steady * at 8 per cent, with no call for loans cf a class that would ba taken at a lower rate.\u2014_\u2014 SHORT WOOL COMBING.The oflicial report of the recent shear- ings in New York State by the Americau Merino Sheep Breeders\u2019 Association ,contains a few items of interest, somewhat indicative of the course of breeding that is being pursued in this country.A very considerable portion of the merino wool produced here is suitable for delaine or combing purposes.This is owing totwo reasons, the breeding to longer staple and the adaptation of machinery to the combing of shorter staple than heretofore.Here, then, is an exhibition of mechanical devices to meet a natural difli- culty, for the machinery of not manv years ago was unsuitable for combing any but the long English wools, which in length of staple could not be attained by wools of merino blood.Even in breeding for longer staple on the merino sheep great care and discretion has had to be exercised not to sacrifice density of fleece and other essential qualities that have rendered this kind of wool so valuable to our manufacturing wants\u2014 Boston Journal of Commerce.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014e< LONDON WOOL SALES.Loxvox, June 25.\u2014There was a large attendance at the wool sales to-day, and operators bid freely for the classes offered.The firmness of previous days continues, but prices are not quoted any higher.The quantity withdrawn to date does not exceed 3,000 bales, a good proportion of which was taken to-day.There were offered 13,533 bales of good selection.Following are the details of the day\u2019s transactions: Victeria \u2014 Sales 4,500 bales ;

There appeared to be a better feeling in wholesale trade circles last week, due mainly to improved cro) prospects.The feeling of uneasiness which was so apparent a short time ago, has now given place to one ofconfidence in the future, and certainly in this respect the situation bas undergone a great change.The very warm weather which prevailed for a portion of the week caused a feeling of lethargy, and a geveral indisposition to do business.The principal feature of the week was the arrival of traders from the north country, with furs, and quite a little business was done with these parties.Otherwise the week was a quiet one, partaking of the nature of midsummer dullness.\u2014\u2014 COTTON MARKETS, Cotton was in very fair sale.All markets were firmer.Galveston, Mobile and New Orleans 1-16¢ higher, Savannah, St.Louis and Memphis 3c dearer.The saies at the ports were 4,881 bales, the receipts 1,479 bales, the foreign exports 9,792 bales, and the stock at the ports 12,000 less than Saturday.At the present ratio of exports, whicn bids fair of being continued, the stocks at the close of the season promise to be small.Liverpool active, with good salés, and our markets showing increasing strength the statistical position improves steadily.Rain throughout the cotton belt continues free in localities where not wanted.Sales at the ports and chief interior towns were 5,108 bales, against receipts of 1,634 bales, and, with other details, were as follows :\u2014 NewYork, steady at 10 5-16c.; sales, 487 bales ; stock, 172,642 bales.New Orleans very strong at 9%c.; sales, 4,000 bales ; stock, 66,566 bales.Liverpool opened active, with a hardening tendency and sales of 15,000 bales on the basis of 53d.for middling Orleans.Receipts so far this week 11,000 bales, of which 7,000 bales American, and sales 23,000 bales, of which 16,000 bales American, Futures opened partially at 1-64d advance, at which the market ruled quiet and closed steady.Bar silver was 1-161 higher in London at 424d.per ounce.Port receipts were 1,479 bales, against 667 bales the same day last year.Port receipts this week 4,928 bales, against 813 bales the same time last year.Since September 1 port receipts have been 5,431,627 bales, against 5,179,038 bales the same date last year.Exports so far this week 15,151 bales, of which 11,005 bales to Great Britain.Stocks at the shipping ports 298,547 bales, against 289,756 bales the same date last year.Cotton certificates were dealt in fairly free orto the extent of 94,700 bales.Opening prices were 3,3,2,1,1 and 1 point lower than Saturday's closing prices for June to November, with the tendency very mercurial and the closing prices 3, 2and 1 point lower for June, July and August, and 2, 7 and G points higher for September, October and No- | vember, a8 compared with Saturday's closing.i \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014B\u2014 THE WHEAT CROP.General Observations by the Statistician.The June report of the Agricultural Department discusses the situation and outlook as to wheat as follows :\u2014 The reduction of crop areas in a country increasing in population over 2 per cent rerannum is doubtful and difficult to realize.A backward movement is not à national habit.Our correspondents often fail to report full acreage, because they do not consider the element of increase of population, giving only their views of relative areas on established farms and omitting the increase Official sidering the weather.Exactly what should stimulate the demand is not very clear, but there was a much better atten- | dance on the pier this morning, and among the buyers were found those who have previously been holding back, making a good balance against some who refused to go ahead at the rates asked.Receivers did not appear inclined to crowd their advantage too much lest there might be an undue stimulus given to-day\u2019s country markets.Under grades have not had a trial to-day, but some- | in number of farms.This is cause of serious deficiency in the States and Territories where settlement is active.It It was assumed that low prices of wheat would reduce the area.Last fall the returns of acreage indicated almost a fuli breadth of winter wheat.The losses of winter killing are discounted intwo ways: by substitution of other crops and by a reduced condition for the acreage standing.The pessimist\u2014and the bull of ths wheat pit is a sample of \u2018the most pronounced type\u2014cuts down acreage to discount all damage, and then reduces condition to discount it all over again.In this way he scores a disagrea- ment with our level-hea led and judicious resident reporters.But a higher degree of confidence should naturally be awarded to practical estimates mathematically consohdated than to those of panic- stricken travellers, who catch fugitive glimpses of fragmentary wheat fields between the railway cuts in views that are vanishing at the rate of 40 miles an hour.The present investigation shows a serious decline, forced by meteorology rather than planned deliberately,amount.ing to about 1,750,000 acres in the Ouio Valley and other States, with an offset of 500,000 acres increase in Kansas.It is { where it is most observed by the dealers in wheat, who are apt to assume similar reductions elsewhere, The net decrease in winter wheat area, though not deter- , mined precisely, will probaoly be about 1,250,000 acres.It should be understood, further, that there is nearly always some similar substitution for winter wheat by corn or oats or other spring crops, as was the case a year ago in the crop with which this is compared.Compared with the reduced area last vear, a further reduction of 18 per cent.is reported in Illinois, 14 in Ohio, 10 in Michigan and Missouri, and 9 in Indiana.There is little reduction on the Atlantic coast, except in New York, where it amounts to 7 per cent.In the Gulf States there is no decline, though the area is very small, except in Texas.There is a small reduction in California.There has been an increase of area in spring wheat in Dakota and in the Territories farther west, but a decrease in Iowa, Wisconsin and Minnesota, making an average decrcase for the spring wheat region of 1 per cent.It is very difficult to ascertain at once the exact area of whest in the Northwest, so that this estimate may be subject to sl\u2019ght moditi- cation.Taking winter and spring wheat together, the entire wheat area is very near 36,300,000 acres.There is a slight local change of condition of winter wheat, some improvement in New York and Pennsylvania, and marked deline in Missouri, and minor changes of status elsewhere, making the average 73 3, against 73 1 in May.The less by overflow of the Mississippi in Illinois offsets in part improvement in other counties.In Ohio, Indiana, Michigan and Kansas the average condition is nearly the same as in May, The condition of spring wheat is better than last year by five points, The average is 92.8, and the slight impairment indicated appears to be the resultofa late spring, which may be fully compan- sated in the growth of June.The lower average represent the more northern districts.There is nothing in present conditions to forbid the largest yields of the spring wheat districts.No estimates of final product will be made.No predictions of the aggregate of the crop are admissible.Yet the inquiry is repeatedly made, what do these averages indicate?\u2018While it is useless to give exact figures, which some perverse spirits are sure to report as predictions on the authority of the Department, it may prevent too wide and misleading a range of interpretation to say that the present condition of winter wheat does not indicate a yield much above 103 bushels per acre on about 23, 000,000 acres, and that the present promise of spring wheat is about 13 bushels per acre on 13,300,000 acres.The future changes of condition will change this expectation proportionally.There is always an element of change the character of the season when the grain is \u201cin the milk.\u201d It is a critical time, when a few days may effect the filling of the grain, its plumpness and weight, for good or ill It sometimes occurs that short straw, an incomplete development of plant, may fill its heads with unaccountable plumpness, which is only reported in the books of the thrasher.In such a case the thoughtless and superficial will discredit the judgment of crop correspondents who reported growing conditions accurately.For this reason no ope can judge the outcome until this last record of the season is made, the status of the grain in ripening and tlie measure of the thrasher.> THE LIVE STOCK TRADE.MONTREAL, June 23.The receipts of live stock

Finance Committee and Other Notes.es The City Hall had on its usual sleepy midsummer look yesterday, and it was a drowsy looking meeting that was held in the Road Committee room during the afternoon.Ald.Laurent presided, and at the start expressed the hope that there would be little or no discussion as he wanted to get through all the business, pointing to a sheaf of papers lying on the table.The members murmered their assent, and the worthy chairman proceeded to rattle over the papers ata great rate.This, with the well known acoustic defects of the room, and the subdued key of the alderman\u2019s voice made it almost impossible forthe reporters to get an idea of what was going on.Two of their number followed the example of some of the worthy aldermen and dozed off, lulled by tue murmur of the chairman's voice.The meeting proceeded in this sleepy way to award contracts for flagstone pavements, several offers being re ceived.Mr.Lawrence got the contract, the stones to be all of New York blue stone.The chairman next gathered up some papers pertaining to small drains in various parts of the city, which were disposed of without comment.Tne Chairman, Alderman Wilson and the City Surveyor, were appointed to consult with the authorities of Cote St.Antoine in reference to a letter from them asking on what terms the city would aliow the municipality to connect its drains with the proposed new intersecting sewer on St.Catherine street.The Fortification drain matter was brought up again in the shape of a report from the City Surveyor, to the effect that it was choked.The Chairman said that he would look into the matter.Several claims for damages occupied attention next.The claim arising out of the alteration in the level of William street was left to a special sub-committee for report.The City Surveyor reported that he had a lot of stone blocks intended for the paving OF COMMISSIONERS STREET, which owing to the construction oy the dyke he would not use.He suggested that they be used on Campeau street.It was decided to ask for $1,500 for the purpose.The same officer read the report of the deputation which recently visited the States.It was to the same effect as the synopsis of it already published in the HerALD, viz.: decidedly against cedar blocks.This report wakened the committee into some activity, and they discussed the qualities of the wood blocks for several minutes.It was decided that they would report that experimental sections of them be laid on St.Francois Xavier street, and the east end of St.Catherine street, with concrete, to show the citizens what they were worth.Before the meeting had time to resums its drowsy mood, Mr.G.W.Btephens appeared before it and asked that the committee lay the sidewalk back to his new houses on St.Catherine street.These houses had been built back on the new line.It was decided to do so provided Mr.Stephens would sign a paper agreeing not to ask any money for the land until the general expropriation along the line took place.Before be left Mr.Stephens, spaaking in reference to the new drain on St.Catherine street, in front of these properties, said that be would be willing to pay double the money to have a drain made by day\u2019s work if they were all done as well as this one.The Chairman then read a letter from the agent of the * Val de Travers Asphalt Co\u2019y, offLondon\u201d offering to pave Craig street on a concrete foundativa with two inches of pure rock asphalt, such as has been laid in Cheapside, in London replacing some that had be:n on that street eigliteert years ago.They would do this for $3.75 per yard, and guarantee it for a fixed time.No action was taken in regard to the letter.The placing of street numbers on the transom rail next occupied attention, but nothing was done.The report referred back to the Committee from the Council with regard to stone block paving on Craig street, was sent back to the Council, accompanied by the report of the deputation who had visited the States.In answer to a notice from the City Surveyor, notifying them that they were placing poles where they ought not to be, the Bell Telephone Company wrote that their charter gave them privileges, and it was the duty of the City Surveyor to exercise supervision over the men.This letter was considered curt by several of the members, and there was some talk of ordering proceedings against the company, but beyond this nothing was done, and tbe meeting adjourned after disposing ofsome minor matters.NOTES, A special private meeting of the Finance Committee was held yesterday.After sitting for about an hour the meeting broke up.On coming out the chairman, Ald.Grenier, said : \u201cOur meeting to-day was with regard to certain details in connection with the proposed loan of $150,000.\u201d Dr.Laberge says that he is going to have great difficulty about the gas nuisance in Griffintown.The Health Department, he says, must relieve the resi- den\u2019s, and the City Burveyorand himself have decided to open the drains in question and make a close inspection of them.Some time ago it was stated in committee that in a year or so the city would be able to greatly reduce its arrears de- artment staff, as the arrears would grow fess year by year.With the present increase of drain accounts, the probability is considerably advanced into the future, not to speak of the round sum of $130,000 regular assessments that remain over each year.Quite Correet.\u201c1 have used Dr.Fowler's Extract of Wild Strawberry and found it the besc

the old chieftain is genial enough but the men who know, know that \u2018 within the velvet glove that familiarly taps them on the shoulder the iron hand is incased.So their insubordination is always muffied, their desire to be independent may be great, but their courage is unfortunately of a weakly kind.Whatever else he may be, the John A.Macdonaldite is not a man who dare look his master in the face and answer boldly.There is a small aud better class of Conservatives in Canada, but they are not the active politicians ; not the men amenable to disipline or those who subscribe to organs.The Dewdney Boom has been worked up in the west by the officials of the Government; the necessary addresses have been drawn up, signed and presented, and the \u2018local- man \u201d sentiment has been worked for all the aid it could give.As a corre- £p ndent desiring to make the best of it puts the case : * Better even Dewdney * than rome Eastern Duck that knows * nothing about the country.\u201d But the | dissatisfaction seems to be general, and the reason is obvious.Mr.Dewdney was Lieut.-Governor of the Territories for about six years.Ere two years of his term had elapsed neurmurings bezan.\u201cThe public ear was filled with stories of favoritism, of land speculation, of Indian depredations, Indian wrongs, Half-breed complaints and so forth, that cast an un- unpleasant glare upon the Governor.He had succeeded Mr.Laird, against whom no word of reproach had been uttered in the territory.The contrast was therefore very striking.And as year by year went by these complaints grow louder until travellers, clergymen, members of the local council, and lay residents continued to make one chorus of complaint which was so well founded that while they were yet crying aloud an insurrection followed by an Indian outbreak took Those events cost Canada about seven million dollars, several hundred lives, and so disturbed the progress of the North-West that the effects are felt to-day.The English land companies who were so hopeful found their prospects shattered at a blow, immigrants were drawn elsewhere, British investors took their money off to Australia and the States, and instead of a swelling prosperity, the conditioa of affairs is as we see it to-day\u2014 slowly recovering from a crushing misfortune.All this occurred under Mr.Dewdney\u2019s rale.It was not a rule of constitutional advisers; Mr.Dewdney and the Departments at Ottawa were supreme.Whatever success was achieved was to their credit ; for whatever failure might come about they were responsible- The Conservative party felt this; they held Dewdney responsible for the false position into which the party had been brought; a position which would have turned the Goverament out of power in any free country under the sun, Canala excepted; and they feel extremely aa- noyed at his being preferred before old .members of the party who have done ! good service, and whose career has not been harmful and embarassing.They know, in fact, that the country will not easily forgive this appointment\u2014this seven million dollar appointment, 89 to speak, andeach Conservative member knows that in his constituency it will necessarily c st him many votes.There are some things that Conservative farmers will not stand.But there isan explanation of all this.THE MONTREAT, LIERALD AND_ DAILY COMMERCIAL GAZETTE THURSDAY.JUNE.28.1888 Mr.Dewdney may be responsible for the Northwest rebellion, but so also is Sir : John Macdonald, and Mr, Dewdney may ; have given his friend to understaud that | he is not disposed to shoulder the whole ;weizht.The Indian Department and the Mounted Police were especially under the management of Sir John, and l tocally under Mr.Dewdnay, who was ! Indian Commissioner as well as Lieuat.- Governor.Thess two were acting in concert, personal friends, understanding \u201c one auother, corresponding o ficially aad privately throughout the time betwaon the departure of Mr.Laird and the execution of Riel and the six Indians.To clear himself of the responsibility that attaches to Mr.Dewdney, Sir John sees to be impossible; he brought oa the rebellion a8 much as Mr.Dawdney did, and as we know that documents of importance bearing on that outbreak were suppressed or destroyed, it may well be that Mr.Dewdney could speak of some not yet made public, and which at all costs Sir John feels must not be producad until he has passed from public life.There may be more pressing reasons for taking Dewdney into the Cabinet than the public generaily are aware of, but if so, it emphasgizas all that has bean said in the House of Commons concerning the criminal neglect of Sir John aad the incompetence that permitted asecond rekellion to be brought about by one man to the serious loss and detriment of the Northwest, and at the cost of several hundred lives and seven million dollars.We understand the admission of Mr.: Dewdney to the Cabinet to ba à recogai- : tion and confession by Sir John Macdonald of his own responsibility for the .grievous affairs of 1885\u2014a series of mis- | fortunes for which pardon was procured only by gigantie corruption.\u2014\u2014\u2014__ THE CHIEF JUSTICES OPINION.We elsewhere publish the full text of Chief Justice Ritchie\u2019s judgment in the Ayer case, delivered in the Supreme | Court at Ottawa yesterday.He notonly decides the case against the Government, | but he severely comments on the conduct of the customs officials of Montreal.The seizure, he says, was unwarranted, and he characterized the action of some of the officials as a huge conspiracy.It | certainly bears a curious appearancs.If ' the Ayers were smuggling they should have been stopped and dealt with at once, buf the customs seem to have allowed them to proceed in the way of | business authorized by the officials for ; several years, while a case was being worked up against them.Then when the amounts involved had become gizantic, a seizure is made and legal proceedings taken to confiscate $7,900 worth of goods and to recover $379,000 of alleged unpaid duties.This enormous sum, had the case been decided against the Ayers, would have been divided among the Crown and the customs officers concerned.One or two of them would have become rich men.Is there reasonable defense for a system that is calculated to induce public officers to connive at an infraction of the law, with the object of increasing the amount involved, so that they may make a big .sweep and divide up a handsome fortune?We do not say that such was the case in the present instance, Zthouzh .the remarks of Sir William Ritchie create the belief that in his opinion such was.the case, but the system is conducive to that practice.It was bad enough in past years and the merchants of Montreal and elsewhere ex- | pressed great indignation about its con- | tinuance, but last session the Govern- \u2018ment amended the Customs Act and made it worse than before.Sir John, however, has become so autocratic that to a mers remonstrance he turns a deaf ear, confident that undar any ciream- stances he will receive the votes of those be oppresses, and that is all he cares about.But it is a reproach to the country that the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court should have cause to speak of the action ofthe Departmental officials of the Government as \u201c a huge conspiracy,\u201d and couple the word disgraceful with the name of a man encouraged in his ways by the head of his department, and endorsed by the Government in their legislation.We are glad to see that Messrs.Ayer have been exonerated, and they would seem to have good ground for an action against the Government\u2014 unfortunately it cannot be against the individuals concerned\u2014for the loss and annoyance they have experienced.The respectable people in the Dowinion, without respect to party, are bezinaing to say that it is time for a change.\u2018When the amendments to the Customs\u2019 Act was before the House of Commons last session, Hon.Mr.Mitchell called attention to the outrageous character of some of its provisions, and particularly to the clauses containing the system of giving customs officials a share of the fines and seizures, which have bean a source of scandal throughout the Dominion, involving the Customs Department, from the Minister down, in wholesale and merited condemnation.The Government not only refused to heed the protest of Mr.Mitchell and others, but defended the Act and the system which it perpetuated, and forced the obnoxious measure through the House without giving the merchants of Montreal and other places time to consider * and express their opinions uponit.The result in the Ayer case, and the severity of the terms employed by Chief Justice Ritchie in denouncing the action of Government officials, should causa Mr* Ma=- kenzie Bowell to pause and consider whether he had better not have done with a system, the working of which drew such indignant com:nents from the highest judicial authority in the land.There can be no donbt that this, like hundreds of other iniquitous cases, might have been submitted to in silence, were it not that the Messrs.Ayer, being ee a wealthy and independent firm, refused to be bull-dozed and victimized, but being able as well as willing to defend their rights and interests, have succeeded in teaching the Government a lesson which itis to be lLioped, they will not forzet.The Messrs.Aver will be doing the public as well as themselves a favor if they can succeed in bringing the authors of of what Chief Justice Ritchie denounced as a \u201c conspiracy,\u201d to tha bar of justice.SIR JOIIN'S INGRATITUDE.We hear from two authorities\u2014of very diverse kinds\u2014that a prominent Conservative Minister, representing a county not very far from Ottawa, recently visited the Capital with the object of remonstrating with Sir John upon his purpose of taking Mr.Dewdney into the Cabinet.Sir John, we are told, asked the member whether he had any business in his county requiring attention, to which the answer was made, \u2018 Yes.\u201d \u201cThen,\u201d said Sir John, \u201cgo home and attend to your business and I will attenl to mine.\u201d We have reason to believe that this is true, and it so aptly fiis the condition of affairs in the Conservative party thai we are not at all surprised at it.The party has allowed one man to become so autocratic, so impatient of difference, and so dictatorial in matter, if not in mapner, that he has brought himself to that stats of mind in which the French monarch was when he said, \u2018 The State, that is L\u201d And the party must know by this tim3 what that means.Thev have seen this and that one sacrificed because the sacrifice was required in Sir John's individual interests, and each one must know that he in his turn would be laid low, without the slightest compunction on Sir John\u2019s part, if he were thougkt to be in the way.No party bas ever given so many evidences of fidelity, and, in no party ars the members treated with such contumely and indifference.Sir Charles Tupper would not stand this kind of treatment, and towards him, therefore, Sir John evinced a different spirit.Ie does not like Tupper, but he dare not snub him.He would never have told Tupper to go home and mind his own business.But for the rest, he regards them as so many pawns to be moved or to stand still as he directs.Ourinformant tells us that, after telling the member we have alluded to, that he should attend to his own business.Sir John added that there was no member of the party in Parliament fit to take the portfolio of the Interior.The reply might justly have been made that no member in the House could possibly have mismanaged a Department more thoroughly than Sir John has done that which be took under his own supervision.Most people will feel that as the older and more experienced Conservatives are compelled both by their vote and voice to defend the actions of the Government, they have some right to speak when Sir John proposes to do that which is contrary to their desire and their opinion of right and wrong, and they will have good cause of complaint on finding that when a trusted associate ventures upon a remonstrance while there is yet time to avoid a mistake, he is told to go about his business.They have in a measure brought this upoa themselves by their subserviency in the matter of Baird, and in the Disallow- ance and Statutory offer questions, buf Sir John might have remembered the support given to him on those occasions, and have sought to avoid a repetition of acts unpopular among his supporters rather than have obstinately adhered to a purpose distasteful to them, and rudely resented any objection to his soversig1 will.The party has done too much for him, and he now regards them all merely as his servants.\u2014\u2014 THE TARIFF ISSUL.The plain fact is that in the United States things are about in the shape they are in Canada.There the Republicans defiantly, ostentatiously push the tariff issue to the front.They say, and always have said, that they want protection for the sake of protection.They want protection for the workingman, protection for the manufacturer and protection for the farmer.They do not mince matters; they do not use equivocal language; they leave nobody in doubt as to their meaning.They say they want protection.They want all they can get of it.They say this at all times and under all circumstances, and they say it aggressively.They want to discuss the question.They are not afraid or ashamed to defend thoir position.\u2014 Hamilton Spectator.The Spec.is not very well posted in American history.In 1880 and 1884 the Republicans inserted a tariff raform plank in their platform, endorsing the principle of a reduction in duties.In 1882, under President Arthur, they to some extent gave effect to their tariff reform professions by making a number of important tariff reductions\u2014notably on steel rails\u2014and transferring a number of articles to the free list.In 1884 they re-affirmed tariff reform in very emphatic terms.Under President Cleveland the Democrats have grappled with the question.They propose a large reduction in duties and have made tariff reform on the lines of the President's message a principal plank in their platforms.The Republicans found that they could no longer coquet with that issue, that they could no longer run with the hare and hunt with the hounds, that the people woull be no longer fooled wita tariff reform professions which meant higher duties for the monopolists, higher taxes for the people and free whiskey: and therefore they went back on the platforms of 1880 and 1884, and declared for protection and more of it.It is well that they did so, because the issue betwoen the two parties is clearly defined.The Republicans have to defead their position, and in the face of the growing demand for reduction of the war tariff they will have to detend it more vigorously than they ever did if they expact to hold their own.The aggression is all on the other side, Practically tha Dam- ocrats have dictated the issue and forcel the fighting, and the Republicans, nolens volens, have had to assume the defensive.The working men and the farmers are finding out that protection for the manufacturer does not mean protection for them, and they will not permit so one- sided a state of affairs to last much longer.The farmers and working men of Canada are beginninz to realize that they, too, have for eight years been the victims of a huge deception ; and in due time will make it plain to the organs of the \u201ccombines\u201d that they don\u2019t intend to be any longer saddled with a system which taxes the many for the benefit of the few.The protectionists will be\u2014are practically now\u2014on the defensive, and th@pggressive campaign will be waged by those who don\u2019t propose to continue paying taxes in order that sugar nabobs, cotton lerds, coal barons and iron magnates may enjoy a monopoly of the market at their own prices.\u2014_\u2014 LACK OF ENTHUSIASM.The Republican press is being heard from on the nominations made at Chicago, and the utterances so far published do not indicate that the ticket has raised, or is likely to raise, any widespread en- thusiagm in the \u201cGrand Old Party.\u201d Outside of the \u201c dyed-in-the-wool\u201d party organs, which bad made up their minds to champion whatever nomination was made, the feeling seems to be, \u201c well, the nomination, under the circumstances, was about the best that could be made.\u201d The Republican organs in California do not hesitate to express their disappointment and declare their preferency for Gresham or Alger.In Indiana the leaders of the labor party promptly declare their opposition to Harrison and intimate that the labor party in that State will vota solidly against him.Indiana is a doubtful State, and the effect of the nomination on the Democrats is that they appear to be quite satis- fed and claim that the State will without doubt go Democratic.Taxing the average of reports published in New York papers on Tuesday, outside of In- diapa, the nomination of Harrison and Morton appears to have awakened very little enthusiasm.The situation appears to be pretty accurately defined in the telegraphic display lines of the New York Telegram: * Not buoyant for Ben; \u201cthey must take him, but they don\u2019t \u201churrah.\u201d The Chicago Tribune is de- eidedly outspoken in its disgust.For months it has championed the cause of tariff reform and boomed Gresham.It condemned the tariff plank of the platform, and openly expressed its opposition to Harrison\u2019s nomination.It now saya that the nomination of both Harrison and Morton was dictated by New York, and goes on to express its disgust in the following terms :\u2014 \u201c A diligent search in the annals of parties will fail to Match the procecdings which followed the nomination of Harrison.\u2018 Having coerced the Convention into nominating Harrison, New York demanded also the naming of Vice-President, and with an argument that completely confessed the conscious weakness of the decision for which it is chiefly responsible.* An examination of the speech of Senator Warner Miller will open the eyes of Republicans.New York has demanded the nominz- tion of Harrison as indispensable and sufficient for the triumph of the Republican party in November in New York State.New York had its way.\u201c Forgetting its assurance, or compelled af ter winning the game to own iis hollowness, Senator Miller informed the Convention that if it did not nominate Morton for Vice-Presi- dent, New York would go home sic at heart and discouraged.\u201d It will be pretty hard for the Tribune to be enthusiastic in support of the party candidates under such circumstances.Indeed, the attitude of the Tribune, undoubtedly the most ably conducted and influential Republican paper in the West, gives color to the report that Illinois is slipping away from the Republicans and may possibly go Democratic, so strong is the feeling in that State in favor of tarif reform.There is also said to be a decided lack of enthusiasm among Republican Congressmen at Washington.The day before the nomination they joinedin a despatch recommending the nomination of McKinley as the only means of saving the party.Their advice was ignored, and now they feel that they cannot hurrah very heartily.Mr.McNEeg, of Winnipeg, in an interview published elsewhere, gives a very satisfactory account of the outlook in the Northwest, and particularly in Manitoba.He speaks from personal knowledge of the situation, and his statements and opinions may therefore be accepted as correct.The administratian of affairs by the Greenway Government has already restored confidence in the Prairie Province.DIED.WILSON.\u2014After a short illness, at 306 Peel street, on Tuesday morning, the 26th June, of congestion of the brain l:orence Isabel, second daughter

sang one or two choruses, as did the primary, after which Canon Belcher followed with a short prayer.Then the prizes were distributed ; after this they sang a song of action, composed of folding arms,clapping hands, etc., which was very good.Ald.Mooney then made a few remarks, congratulating the children on their success, and wished them a pleasant holiday; and a few remarks from the Rev.Canon Belcher closed the exercises of the preparatory and primary grades.\u2018The intermediate and Senior grades held their exercises separately.Ald.Mooney opened with a few remarks, after which followed the solo and chorus, \u201c Rock-a-by, baby,\u201d the solo being taken by Miss A.Moeser.Another solo.\u201c Grandpa, pa and I,\u201d by Master W.Newmarch, was followed by a sone song by the

they also have a library in connection with the school, and about $50 on hand to increase it next fall After thanking the chairman and friends for thers presence, and the scholars for their

QuEzkc, June 26.The budget being down, the Opposition have something, as they say, to manufacture powder and shot out of for the next ele.tions.So far, the product, I should judge, is very small, if the Opposition speeches are to be taken as a fair sample.There is a great deal of gas expended on items that unfortunately have received their growth and strength from the very parties that now complain so loudly.In concurrence this afternoon the Conservatives opposed many necessary items which the increased service demands, and insisted upon divisions.On the amounts of $50,- 000 for contingencies for civil government the following was the division :\u2014 \u2014 i 1, Turcoite, McShane, GT mal.RObidOuxX, Murphy, Bis- son, Cameron, Cardin, Syivesire, Martin (Rimouski), Morin,

Beauchamp, lLuapointe\u201418.The same division was taken on the administration of justice.The Legislative Council Committe met this morning and began its inquiry into lon.Dr.Lavailee\u2019s case.Hon.Mr.Starnes is chairman, Mr, Fitzpatrick and Mr.Cerpellier, Q.C., appearing as counsel, the former for the Government and the latter for the accused.The first wituess examined was Mr.Deslislets, prothonotary of Jolietts, who gave some technical evidence as to the legal proceedings taken in the vase and the filing of records.Mr.Guilbault, M.P., was next examined as to Dr.Lavallee\u2019s condition at the time of his writing his resignation.He testified that on the 21st January last and later, the hon.gentleman was in a state of intense nervous excitement.Mr.Cordellier asked the prothonotary, who was recalled whether the Grand Jury were retained for too long a time.This question was objected to by the Government members on the committee.The room was cleared, and after some time, was again opened to the press.The majority of the committee decided to allow the question, and the reply was that the jury was discharged on the 25th, having ra- turned bills on the 24th.The committee adjourned until to-morrow, other witnesses not being present.It is thought a report cannot be made to the Council before the Houses prorogue.Hon.Mr.McShane and Mr.Lafontaine carried their point anent the Montreal Bill and the widening of St.Lawrence Main street.The Speaker decided that there was a doubt as to the procedura and ordered the bill to be referred back to the Permanent Orders committee.This will give those who oppose the widening of the street another chance of placing their side of the question before the committee and the Hous.It is thought commissioners will be appointed to make a report upon the several properties and those which are most to be benefited by the improvements.The presence of Mr.W.Wainwright, Grand Trunk Railway, in town has given rise to all kindsfof railway rumors, one being that some arrangements were being made to take back the North Shore from the C.P.R.This is given for what it is worth.The fact of Mr.Wainwright having had a long interview with the Hon.Premier this morning, no doubt gave rise io the stories.Mr.Torrance, of the Dominion line of steamers, is here with reference to the Joint Stock Companies\u2019 Tax Act.As the capital of this company is ail hell in England, it is contended that the imposition of the tax is therefore illegal.\u2018The Premier is giving it his attention.Mr.Harte, of Montreal, is als) in town in ¢cnoection with the laws for the better preservation of the trout of the couu- try.The Jesuit rasolutions will probably come before the House on Thursday.Great interest is being taken in the subject by all classes and the final ssttle- ment of the question will redound to the credit ¢f the Hon.Mr.Mercier.The question has been a knotty one to unravel and to adjust satisfactorily to all these interested in the revenues of these vast estates, but from all I can learn the Premier has grappled with the question and willgive a good and equitable solution of it.The ship laborers\u2019 committee meet tomorrow morning, with Mr.Boyer as chairman.Hon.Mr.Irvine, Q.C., appears for the bill, and Mr.Cnarles Fitz- atrick for the ship laborers.There will be a bard fight made to kill the bill, but the merchants are preparing for this.Mr.J.8.Hall, jr.\u2019s motion for a statement showing the number of coroners\u2019 inquests held since confederation was objected to by the Premier as entailing too much expense.He said it could be complied with but could not be produced until about the year 1890.The work it would entail would be tremendous and the cost heavy.There were about 250 coroner\u2019s inquests every year and so the number for twenty years would be very great.Aîter some discussion the motion was altered so as to cover only the districts of Quebec and Montreal for five years past, Mr.Hall explaining thab his object Was to obtuin the recommendations of coronera\u2019 juries in cases of railway, shipping and machinery accidents which might be usetul to the House in view of possible legislation, Mr.Beauchamp, the member for Two Mountains, kicked up a discussion this evening on the item coming up for agricultural schools.He was very much annoyed, it appears, that a report of his own, & minority one, had not been published in the report of the Agricultural Commission.He was ambitious of showing what a smart report he could make, and sent it to the Lt.-Governor instead of the president of the commission, and wonders now what became of it.He blames the Government for its miscarriage and every other evil connected with it, being himself to blame for its loss.No doubt it was a valuable report and of great literary merit, but after all its conclusions, it appears, are the same a8 the general report, speaking highly of Mr.Fred Ritchie's farm at Ste.Anne de la Perade as tue best in the Provinces, and suited over all as the one for a model farm.Of tbs farm I shall send you an account from personal observation in a few days, -_\u2014 \u201cYoung man,\u201d he said, solemnly, \u201cin the silent watches or the night, when you are wakeful and restless, do vou not often feel in the depths of your

CLEANED OUT BY THE TELLER.oC | phe Union Bank of Providence Left High and Dry.pitcher Scoops Half a Million, It was on Monday morning that the business community of Providence, R.I., was astounded by the rumor that Charles A, Pitcher, teller of the Union Bank ot that city\u2014who was arrested in Montreal Tuesday night\u2014had fled with a large rtion of the funds of the institution in pis possession, An investigation into the facts ofthe case revealed that the romor was well founded and that the fugitive bad probably taken with him a sum of money which may seriously interfere with the future financial operations of the bank.Mr.Pitcher left the banking rooms last gaturday afternoon at the usual hour, about four o\u2019clock, and,departed, as was supposed, for home.Those who happened to see him say that he appeared as usual in his general behavior.This was the last seen of him by the officials of the bank.He is Said to have been seen in Boston Saturday night.Monday morning, however, it was discovered that a considerable amount of {Le bank\u2019s funds was missing, including notes, commercial paper, forms of securities and cash.Flis accounts were found to be involved, and experts were immediately put upon the books to discover the extent of his shortcomings.The directors were called together and, with the president and cashier, began a formal investigation jnto the affairs of the institution.The bank was open this morning, but no business was transacted, the oflicials of the institution being clcseted together, occupied with investigating the books and aecounts of the alleged defaulter.MADE A CLEAN SWEEP.Pitcher appears to have practically cleaned out the bank, as far as it was possible for him to do so.He tuok every dollar in the vaull, the total amount of cash taken being $20,000, besides which.be approrriated notes and bills receivable aggregating in value $500,000.The greater portion of these notes and bills, Lowever, are unavailable, but the loss of them will embarrass the bank temporarily, at least.Some securities were also taken.The Doyle monument fund, for the building of a memorial to the late Mayer Doyle, which had reached $6,600, was in the vault.A director of the bank said to the Herald representative that afternoon that it would not be possible for Pitcher to negotiate the notes in his possession.Every banking house in the country had been telegraphed to, and if they received them they would, of course, do it at their own risk.He might bother them for months, but he could not gain any profit.The psper consisted of trade notes entirely, including no bonds.He had taken probably $20,000 in currency, but this is all that can yield him a return.Even the memoranda of the notes were taken, and this increases the difficulty in finding out just the persons who ace brought into trouble by him.When he went away he left things in the most orderly condition at the bank.The only thing out of order was the combination of the safe lock, which lacked one turn of being in the correct position.THE MISSING MAN.Pitcher is forty-five years old.Ile was born in Providence and his business career and past life are well known, and were irreproachable.He entered the Union Bank in 1876, and rose to the position of teller, since taking which his salary has been $2,000 a year.He lived well, but not expensively, and his domestic life has always been believed to be all right.He is a member of the Central Baptist Church, and was a long time ita treasurer.His wife has been a sufferer from nervous complaints and at times !:as been on the verge of insanity, and it is thouglt that Pitcher's crime may complete the work.The motive for Pit:ners crime is not guessed at either by his friends, his business acquaintances nor his family.Through his wife's sicknesses he is known to have been subject to a heavy draught upon his limited income.SHREWDNESS INDICATED.Men who are acquainted with financial matters find one interesting fact in the method of his crime.They say the notes taken cannot be possibly converted into money.Why then did he take À them?It is thought that his plan is to hold the notes for a compromise.Without then the bank mignt go down and the directors lose very heavily, some of them, it is.said, fatally to their private fortunes.Pitcher can bargain for a relief trom prosecution, and will be in a position to practically bring the bank to terms.The Union Bank is one of the oldest in the city or State.It was founded as a State institution in 1814.It has a cap!- tal of $500,000.Its oflicials are:\u2014Presi- dent, Henry G.Russell; cashier, Joseph C.Johnson; directors, Henry G.Russell, Elisha Dyer, Jr., John H.Congdon, William H.Dunnell, Joseph C.Johnson, William H.Tucker and John W.Slater.ASTONISHED DIRECTORS.The directors were completely taken aback by the defalcation, and when asked for particulars of it said at once that matters are too confused to allow them to know what will be the outcome of the difficulty.They affirm that the bank has always been carried on after the best methods, and local bankers and officials in outside banks say that there is no ground to suppose that anything else is the case.The bank suspended { payment as soon as the defalcation was discovered, but the cashier says tho depositors will get their money if they are but content to wait until affairs are \u2018straightened out.Late the same even- ening the directors reported that the bank would resume business in the morning.THY LIGHTNING-ROD MYTH.Harm than Good Comes from Their Use.{From the Philadelphia Record.] \u201c Lightning-rods are going out of use.Why ?Because they are not believed to be the protection that it was once thought they were.\u201d This was what an ago the lightning

Philosopher of The World >\u201d Emits an Oration of the Right Kind.During the recent conventions a great wany good speeches have been made which did not get into print for various reasons.Some others did not even get a bearing and still others were prepared by delegates who could not get the eye of the presiding officer.The manuscript of the following speech bears the marks of earnest thought, and though the author did not obtain recognition on the floor of the convention I cannot bear to see an appreciative pub-~ lic deprived of it: Mr.Chairman and Gentlemen of the Convention: We are met together here 28 a representation of the greatest and: grandest party in the world\u2014a party that has been first in peace, first in war and first in the hearts of its countrymen, as the good book has it.We come together here to-day, gentlemen, to perpetuate by our action the principles which won us victory at the polls and wrenched it from an irritated aud disagreeable foe on many a tented field.I refer to freedom.Our party has ever been the champion of freedom.We have made à specialty of freedom.We have ever been in the van.That's why we have been on the move.Where freedom a quarter of a century ago was but a mere name, now we have fostered it and aided it and encouraged it and made it pay.We have emancipated a whole race, several of whom have since voted the other way.But we must not be discouraged.We are here to work.Let us do it and so advance our common cause and honor God.But Who is to be the leader?Who will be able to carry our victorious banner from Portland, Me., to Portland, Ore., gayly speaking pieces from the tail-gate of atrain?Who is sufliciently obscure to safely make the race?(Cries of \u201c Jeremiah M.Rusk,\u201d\u201c Randolph Min- tout,\u201d \u201c John Sherman,\u201d \u201c Charlie Kinney,\u201d &c.) The eye of the ration is upon us.We cannot escape the awful responsibility which we have to-day assumed.With all our anxiety to please our friends we must not forget that we are here in the interests of universal freedom.Do not allow yourselves to be blinded, gentle- ___THE MONTREAL, HERALD A Ths | divide the ti - nothing ; pain from several harmonious delegates , In closing that the day for great men as men, by the assurance that this is to be a business man\u2019s campaign, a campaign in which conflicting business interests are to figure more than the late war.It is a fight involving universal freedom, as I said in our conventions four, eight and twelve years ago.We have before us a pure and highly elocutionary platform.Let ns nominate a man who will, as I may say, affiliate and amalgamate with that platform.Blaine, James C.Blaine,\u201d \u201cLockwood, Lockwood, Belva A.Loockwood.\u201d and general confusion, during which John A.Wise is seen to jerk loose about a nickels worth of Billy Mahone\u2019s whiskers.Mr, Chairman and gentlemen of the convention, there has never been a more harmonious convention in the United States to my knowledge since the Sioux massacre in Minnesota, We are all here for thie best good of the party and each is willing to concede something rather than create any ill-feeling.Look at Mahone for instance.We have a good platform, now let us nominate a man whose record is in bar- mony with that platform.Freedom has ever been our watchword.Now that we have made the human race within our borders absolutely free, let us add to our magnificent history as a party by one crowning act.Let us fight for the Emancipation of Rum! .Rum has always been a mighty power in American politics, but it has not been absolutely free.Let us be the firat to recognize it as the great corner stone ef American institutions.Let us make it free.We have never had any Daniel Websters or Henry Clays since rum went up from 20 cents a gallon to its present price.The war tax on whiskey for over twenty years has made freedom a farce and liberty a loud and empty snort in mid-air.Who, then, shall be our stand- ard-bearer as we journey ownward towards victory ?(Cries of \u201c Blaine, Blaine, James G.Blaine,\u201d and confusion.) Gentlemen, Il wish that a better and thrillinger orator had been selected in my place to name the candidate on whom alone I can unite.Soldiers, rail-splitters, statesmen, canal boys, tailors, farmers, merchants and school teachers have been Presidents of the United States, but to my knowledge no convention has ever yet named a distiller.I have the honor tp-day to name a modest man for the high office of President; a man who never before allowed his name to be presented to a convention ; a man who never even stated in the papers that his name would not be presented to the convention; a man who had never sought or courted publicity even in his own business : a man who has been a distiller in a quiet way for over fifteen years and yet has pever even advertised in the papers ; a man who has so carefully shunned the eye of the world that only two or three of us krow where bis place of business is; a man who has such an utter contempt fir office that he has shot two Government officials who claimed to be founected with the internal revenue usiness ; a man who can drink or let it alone, but who has aimed to | me up about equally between : the two; a man who had absolutely | to do with the war, not having heard about it in time ; a man who de- | fies his calumniators or anvbody else of his heft; a man who would paint the | White House red; a man who takes great pleasure in being his own worst | enemy.(Cries of * Name him! name ! Lim!\u201d Great confusion, and cries of who are getting the worst of it.) Not to take up your time, let me say candidates foran important oflice is past.Great men in a great co ntry antagonize different factions and are then compelled to fall back on literature.What we want ig an obscure and silent chump.I have found him.He bas never antagonized but two men in his life and thev are now voting ina better land.He is a plain man, and his career at Washington would be marked with more or less tobacco juice.For over fifteen years he has been con- Structing at his country seat a lurid style of whiskey known as The Essence of Crime.Quietly and unostentatiously he has fought for the emancipation of whiskey everywhere.He says that we are too prone to worry about our clothes and their cost ard to give too little thought to our tax-ridden rum.Then, Mr.Chairman and gentlemen, here in the full glare of public approval, feeling that the name I am about to pronounce will in a few moments flash across à mighty continent and greet the moist and moaning news editor, the grimy peasant, the pussy banker and the streaked tennis player ; that the name I now nourish in my panting brain will soon be taken up on willing tongues and borne across the Union, rising and saluting the hot blue dome of heaven, pulsating across the ocean, rocking the beautifully upholstered thrones of the Old World and calling forth a dark blue torrent of profanity trom the offices of the illustrated papers, none of which will be provided with his portrait, I desire to name Mr.Clem Beasly, of Arkansaw, a man who has spent his best years manufacturing man\u2019s greatest enemy.I hurrah for him and holler for him, and love him for the (hic) enemy he has made.Bin NYE, LEVI PARSONS MORTON.The Wealthy Banker Nominated by Res publicans as Vice-Presidential Candidate.Levi Parsons Morton is a successful and very wealthy New York banker, the chief of the Wall street firm of Morton, Bliss & Co.He was born at Shoreham, Vt., just opposite old Fort Ticonderoga, May 6,1824, As a youngster he had what the Vermonters called \u201chard sledding.\u201d His father was a country clergyman on a small salary, and could only give the boy the education that could be gained at the country school.He early left the school and began his business life as aclerk in a Concord, N.H., dry goods store.When 21 he set up in business for himself, opening a dry goods store in Concord.Four years later, in 1849, he moved to Boston and became a member of the dry goods firm of Beebe, Morton & Co.His connection with this firm continued till 1854, when he moved to New York and founded the dry goods house of Morton & Grinnell.This firm became financially involved at the beginning of the war, and compounded with its creditors at 50 cents on the dollar, Mr.Morton, not in the least discouraged, established a banking house in 1863.He made money rapidly, and it is said that one day he invited the creditors of the late firm of Morton & Grinnell to dine with him.When they sat down to dinner each man found beneath his plate Mr.Morton\u2019s check for an amount that paid his claim in full with interest.In 1868 George Bliss entered the firm, and it became known by its present title of Morton, Bliss & Co.The same year, 1868, Mr.Morton founded the London house of Morton, Rose & Co., his leading partner being Sir John Rose, late financial minister of Canada.Thesetwo banking houses were largely instrumental in making resumption of specie payment in the United States possible and in enabling the Government to fund the United States debt.The syndicate formed for this purpose was headed by Morton, Bliss & Co., and then followed the names of Drexel, Morton & Co., Baring Bros.& Co.and other leading banking houses.The syndicate successfully floated a large issue of 5 per cent.bonds, and and it has been estimated that the reduced rate of rate of interest saved the Government about $70,000,000.Mr.Morton's firm has since then been engaged in many noted financial transactions, in one instance selling to English purchasers for William H.Vanderbilt stock of the New York Central Railroad to the enormous amount of $50,000,000.Mr.Morton entered into political life as a diversion.In 1876 late in the canvass he decided to rua for Congress.He managed to reduce the Democratic vote, but his opponent was elected.In 1878 he tried it again, and this time successfully, beginning earlier and receiving a majority that exceeded the total vote cast for his opponent, At Washington he was distinguisned chiefly for his social position, He bought the house of Samuel Hooper of Boston, furnished it elegantly, as the breakfasts and dinners there were the talk of the town.In 1880 members of the Ohio delegation at the national Republican conventiou, after General Garfield had been nominated for President, urged Mr.Morton to accept the nomination for Vice-President.He declined and General Arthur was nominated for the office.President Garfield offered Mr.Morton the office of Secretary of the Navy which the latter declined.He did accept from President Garfield, however, the appointment of Minister to France, an honor conferred for effective work in the Presidential campaign.The new Minister to France met with few diplomatic difficulties, but he transferred the American legation from its unpretend- ing quarters over a grocery store to a palatial mansion, bired at his own risk.The American hog was attracting some attention in Europe about this time, and Mr.Morton induced the French Cabinet to rescind the probibitory edict against that animal, but the Chamber of Deputies insisted upon the retention of the Jaw.Mr.Morton hammered the first nail in the construction of the Statue of Liberty recentiy erected in New York, and delivered a speech on June 15, 1884, accepting the statue in behalf of the American Government.WIth the incoming of the administration of President Cleveland, Mr.Morton returned to New York.pe A Solemn View.Burns vowed to love his

vegetable, and entirely free from calomel or any other dangerous drug.In all cases, therefore, whether the patient be old or young, they may be confidently administered.In the Southern and Western States, where derangements of the liver are so gencral, Ayer\u2019s Pills have proved an inestimable blessing.D.W, Baine, New Berne, N.C., writes : \u201c1 suffered a long time with stomach and liver troubles.I tried various remedies, but received no benefit until 1 comunenced taking Ayer\u2019s Pills.These pills benefited me at once.I took them regularly for a few months, and my health was completely restored.\u201d Throughout New England, next to lung diseases, Stomach and Bowel Complaints are the most prevalent.Dyspepsia and Constipation are almost universal.Mr.Gallacher, a practical chemist, of Roxbury, Mass., who was long troubled with Dyspepsia, writes : \u201c À friend induced me to try Ayer\u2019s Pills, and, after taking one box without much benefit, I was disposed to quit them; but he urged perseverance, and, before I had finished the second box, I began to experience relief.I continued taking them, at intervals, until I had used eleven boxes.Suflice it to say.that I am now a well man, and grateful to your chemistry, which outstrips mine.\u201d The head and stomach are always in sympathy ; hence the cause of most of those distressing headaches, to which 80 many, especially women, are subject.Mrs.Harriet A.Marble, of Poughkeep- sie, N.Y., writes that for years she was martyr to headache, and never found anything to give her more than temporary relief, until she began takirg Avyer\u2019s Pills, since which she has been in the enjoyment of perfect health.Ayer\u2019s Pills, Dr.J.C.Ayer & Co, Lowell, Mass.Sold by all Druggists.PE PUREST, STRONGEST, BEST,

the North-West.Railways in Manitoba.Immigration to the Winnipeg District.What Mr.Arch.McNee Says on these Topics.As announced in yesterday's HERALD, Mr.Arch.McNee, an ex-Alderman of \u2018Winnipeg, formerly connected with the Free Press of that city, but at present eastern agent for the City Council and Bosrd of Trade Colonization Committes, ison a visit to Montreal.Assured that Mr.McNee could give some valuable inform tion concerning the state of affairs in the west, the agricultural outlook.r.ilway ard immigration matters and Ki dred subjects, le was irterviewed by a representative of Ti: HERALD, and the following information procured from him: THE CROPS, How are the crops progressing in the west this season ?was the first question asked : \u201caid Mr.McNee: This year the crops were put in a little later than in previous feasons, probably ten days or so, as the weather was backward and cold.For iLe past three or four weeks there has Leen fine growing weather in Manitoba, :howery and warm, and ut present the crops are showing up well, and if the fine weather continues they will likely be up to last year\u2019s yield.Before I left Winnipeg I saw many pecple wid were in from the country districts, and they all speak in the mst hopeful terms of the crop outlcok.BUSINESS IN WINNIPEG is slowly recovering after the collapse which followed the big boom of a few years ago, and frum present indications the outloo is exceedingly bright.The enormous crop of last year set things in the right direction, and, should another good one follow this seuson, à substantial aud lasting boom is sure to result.THE ELECTIONS.How about the election ?asked the reporter.\u2018Fhe elections are to come off on the 11th cf July, and that the Greenway G :vernment is sure to be han lisowmely sustained is a foregone conclusion.In fact, I don\u2019t think that any of the candidates ruvning have declared themselves in favor of the old Norquay ud- ministration ; even Norquay himself now admits that his government had made many mistakes.IMMIGRATION, On the question of immigration, Mr.McNee said this year it had been very large, far ia excess of previous years.A large number of the immigrants come from the older provinces of the Dorvinion, more particularly Ontario, and the majority of these are settling in the Winnipeg district.The particular scheme for the colonization of the land in the immediate vicinity of the city of Winnipeg is meeting with a large measure of success.There is a large quantity of unsettled land around the city, and this is rapidly filling up.Already this year seventy families have taken land within a radius of 20 miles from the city, and many more are daily daily arriving.The reason that this land was not sattled before is that no homesteads could be obtained in that vicinity, The land was originally owned by the haltbreeds, and from these it passed to private parties, and no matter how cheap it was offered, settlers preferred to go further west, where they could get Government lands for mnothirg Now, however, things are changing, and homestaals adjacent to railways are hard to obtain, and seitlers are getting to know that without railway facilities it is very hard to get their produce to market.In the \u2018Winnipeg district the railway facilities are ample, and ths fact that all the land is for sale makes it (condnc've to a class of settlers most desirable.Another great advantage of the land in the vicinity reterred to is that it is all subject to municipal taxation, and will, of coarse, have to contribute to the building of roads, bridges and support of schools, etc, whereas in the outlying districts, where homesteads are to be found, a great deal of the land is in the hands of the C.P.R.and the Government.The moment these lands are ssttled they are subject to taxation, and this without the setiler deriving the same benefit from 1t as from the municipal taxed lands in the vicinity of Winnipeg.These ars somo of the advantages for settlars in the vicinity of Winnipeg.not to speak of having such a market as Winnipeg at their doors.RAILWAY CONSTRUCTION, said Mr.McNee, is going on rapidly.The Red River Valley road is being fast pushed forward to completion Fifteen miles of rails have been already laid and track construction is going on as the rate of 2} miles per day.Large gangs of men are employed, and they bave two new locomotives, a large number of box cars, and a compiete general outfit.The road, it is said, will be completed about the middle of August.The connecting link between the Manitoban and North Western Railway, owned by the Messrs.Allan of Montreal, making connections at Portage La Prairie with the Red River Road on the south side of the Assinaboine, will be completed in time to move this year's crops.Then the Greenway Government are completing the forty miles of the Hudson Bay road.This road is being finished in order to get the land grant from the Dominion Government, as the rcad has to pass the inspection of the federal en- gineèrs.The South Eastern, the projected railroad from Winnipeg to run to the bouo- dary and meet the road from Duluti, will be commenced this year.On the whole, concluded Mr.McNes, the outlook in the Northwest, particularly in Manitoba, is bright indeed.THE NORDENFELT GUN.The Vics Make a Useful Parchase.The Victoria Rifles have just purchased, through Captain Douglas, of the Royal Naval Reserve and representative of Nordenfelt\u2019s, one of their three barrel Nordenfelt rifle machine guns for infantry purposes.The gun is about three hundred pounds in weight.The vital parts are made of steel.It will fire 500 shots a distance of 1,400 yards in one minute.The mechan- iem is the simplest possible.Every part can be taken asunder by hand, withous the aid of a screw driver.The vital parts (when pressed by the enemy 1n action) can be readlly carried away in the hands, and the gun is thus rendered useless.Martini-Henry cartridges aro ased.They are fod to the gun by means of an ingenious hopper; the removal offa spring, when all is ready, causes them to fall into grooves for the purp1s >; a forward movement of the handle fires the gun, a backward movement extracts the exploded cartridges, which fall to the ground.At the same time the left hand may be employed either in increasing or depressing the elevation,\u2014which is done by turning a wheel operating a double screw, or by changing the point of attack, \u2014effected by turning a handle which causes the parrels to rake any given point of the compass.The gun will fire in a complete circle, even with the wheels, but when these are removed, as would be necessary in a hilly or rocky country, the arms shown in the cut form a tripod, and every point of view can be covered with rapidity and certainty.The three barrels can be fired either singly or together.Should one of them get out of order or broken, the two barrels cau be used by simply ranning two cartridges instead of three into the grooves of the hopper.From a careful inspeccion of this simple yet deadly weapou, one cannot but be convinsed that it is most suitable.tor Cunada, not only for infantry purpeses, but also iu the Northwest, and more especially for police purposes.The Government bad piaced a certain sum in the estimates for soma of these guns, but, owing to the economy which 18 being practsed, the item was struck out.The gun can also be used on horseback in mountsinous districts, which would greatly assist the mounted police in case of any disturbance.\u2014\u2014-\u2014 MONTREAL COLLEGE OF PHARMACY.At a meeting of the Board of the Muntreal College of Pharmacy, held on Wednesday, June 27th, in the rooms of the College, McGill street, A.H.Mason, F.C.S., F.R.M S., President of the Collegz >, resigned his position, owing to the fact of his leaving the city.The Board expressed its deep regret at losing Mr.Mason's valuable services, and the following resolution was unanimously carried :\u2014 Moved by Mr.S.Lachance, seconded by Mr.W.8.Kerry, \u201c That the Board of the Montreal College of Pharmacy de- gires to thank Mr.A.H.Mason, t \\e retiring president, for the assistance and enccuragement he has always given to this College, and to express their deep regret at his retirement, and farther to wish him success in his new sphere of action.David Watson, Esq., of the firm of Kerry, Watson & Co.,, was unanimously elected as president of the Colloge, in place of Mr.Mason, resigned.Mr.E.Muir, Registrar and Secretary of the Pharmaceutical Association of the Province of Quebec, was unanimously elected as secretary of the College of Pharmacy.CRIMINAL CASES.The Cote St.Louis quarrymen and Maurice (Brien, particulars of whose arrest were given in yesterday\u2019s HrRrALD, were brought before the Police Magistrate yesterday morning, some on the charge of preventing citizens from approaching the poll, others on a

Queen\u2019s Bench.William Davy, charged with indecently assaulting a domestic last Monday night, was fined $20 or 3 months by the Recorder.F.X.Bourdon, who is said to be not in his right mind, was

absconding teller of the Providence Union Bank, was brought before Police Magistrate Dan- durand, yesterday morning, and remanded until two p.m.to-day, pending the arrival of the bank officials, who are expected by early train this morning.After leaving the Mazistrate's office he was taken to the jail and strict orders given that Le be allowed to see no one until this afternoon, when he will be permitted to have an interview with his lawyer.It has transpired that Pitcher, when arrested, was taken first to the magistrate\u2019s house and shortly after midnizht back to St.Lawrence Hall, where he was allowed to pass the night in his own room in charge of one of Kellert\u2019s men.The prisoner took the matter very coolly, but did not seem able to sleep much.About 2 o'clock in the morning he called up the night norter and ordered a half-dozen cigars, which were brought Lim.Many different stories more or less reliable are told as coming from Pit:her.One is that the effect of his wife\u2019s long illness so preyed upon his mind that the life he was living became monotonous, and months ago he began to contemplate the deed of which he has been gnilty.The idea took firm possession of his wind and became a kind of second nature, the opn'\u2019y question to decide being the most convenient time to commit the theft.Saturday afternoon last, after the officials left, he went through the safes and abstracted every cent of cash, customers\u2019 notes and other securities, amounting, he admits, to nearly half a million.He says he will return the notes and bonds for a consideration, said consideration to be £150,000.This is said to be the detectives story.Mr.Guerin, Pitcher\u2019s coursel, refuses to say anything further than that his client is not guilty.The police authorities here are not very much impressed with the manner in which the Providence chief of police acted.The day after private parties had information regarding the absconder and a description of his appearance, in fact the day after his arrest, the authorities receive as their first intimation of the event the following postal card :\u2014 \u201cCharles A.Pitcher, teller Union Bank, Providence, R.I., wanted for larceny of $15,000 and the securities of the bank.Described as 45 years of age; 5 feet 7 inches tall; 150 1bs.weight; hair brown, mixed with considerable gray, cut

Derby hat.One thousand dollars ($1,000) reward will be paid for his arrest or the recovery of the property, by the Board of Directors of the Union Band, Providence, R.I.Information may be sent to Benz.J.CurLD, Chief of Police, Providence, R.I.\u201d \u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.AQUATIC.GRAND TRUNK BOATING CLUB, The Club House of the Grand.Trunk Boating Club wag re-opened last night, after the improvements which the energetic committee nave made in it.The club room has been entirely renovated and enlarged, the inside being cased with polished wood, over which is an arched ceiling, also of ornamental wood.Neither money nor trouble has been spared in beautifying the place, which amply repays the trouble which has been bestowed upon it.l'or the festivities last evening the members were indebted to the labors of a committee comprised principally of ladies, among whom may Le mentioned Mrs.Wildgoose, Mrs.Sly, Mra.Dutton, Mrs.Laing, Mrs.Frad, Miss Laing, Mrs.8, Laing and Miss M.Toomey.The ciub room was entirely clearad for dancing and presented a fine floor for that purpose.The capacious space down stairs was also cleared and an ample feast snread by the lady patrons who decorated the place with bunting, flowers and Chinese lanterns.About fifty couples assembled and enjoved themselves to the fullest capacity, assisted by the music furnished by the Italion orchestra, keeping the light fantastic going until an early hour this morning.The evening was a complete success, and reflected credit on the generosity of the committee who made the arrangements.REGATTA POSTPONED.The Victoria Yacht Club regatta, advertised to come off on July 7th next, will not take place on that day owing to several of the members having sold their yachts in «order to procure faster ones.The regatta will be held sometime between July 7th and 28th, date of which will be advertised.TROTTING.YESTERDAY'S RACING AT THE DRIVING PARKA large number of spectators attended at the Montreal Driving Park, yesterday afternoon, to witness the trotting matches inaugurated by Mr.A.Langevin.For the butchers\u2019 and hotel-keepers\u2019 race, Brown Bird secured an easy victory in three straight heats.The butchers\u2019 race was a most complicated and exciting affair.At the seventh heat three of the competitors had won two heats each.Great excitement reigned when the bell sounded for tbe eighth heat, opinions being greatly divided as to which would be the winner.A grand race ensued ra- sulting in the victory of White Bird by a neck.This ended one of the most

Johns, Nfld., arrived at the latter port at 2 and sailed at Spm.esterday.The dock scheme proposed by Mr.E.W.Henshaw contemplates the conversion of a large portion of what is commonly called Griffintown, bounded on the north by Wellington street, on the east by McGili, on tho west by Colborne, and on the south by the canal and {Common street.This area takes in about 2{ acres, (including the streets now crossing it) and at present not coataining more than ten or a dozen buildings of any considerable value.The lineal wharfage will be nearly 5,000 teet, or nearly a mile in extent.This dock or basin will be sufficiently large to berth twelve to fifteen of the largest steamers at one time that visit this port, with ample room for barges and elevators besides.This, Mr.Henshaw claims, solves the question of harbor accommodation.Other questions of great importance to the trade, not of Montreal alune, but of the whole western country, may fairiy be considered in connection with this inland dock scheme.Occan ships will come into the very heart of the city and at a point where they can discharge without cost direct into railway cars, into canal boats, or into carts.Welling\u2018on street for about 2000 fect er more than a third of à mile would have a width of 130 feet, and along the dock side would run two lines of railway tracks covered in by permanent sheds.Barges with grain, instead of lo«king as at present down to the river, could p:ss into th2 dock by one of the flour shed basins, and, after discharging, take on the wes'ern bound f.eight, and the same exactly can be done bv the railway, and cartage to warehouses in the city would be reducod to a minimum, LACHINE CANAL.ARRIVED\u2014June 27.Barge Cox, Lachine, light.Tug Antelope, Valleytield, light.Steamer Dolphin,
