number of the names struck off the list by the ro- vising officer had been printed on the Lists.This matter demanded the serious consideration of the House, as it involved the honor and constitution of Parliament.Sir John Thompson said Mr.Mills had neither shown privilege or urgency.He asked that notice should be given in the ordinary way.Mr.Laurier declared that the matter was certainly one of privilege.It directly concerned the methods of the election of members of the House and no notice wes required.Me took issue with Sir John Thompson as to privilege.Sir John Thompson explained that he

Rev.John Wood, J.J.Maclaren, Q.C., J.R.Dougall, F.8.Spence, J.H.Carson, The sitting of the committee occupied more than two hours, but in brief the result of their deliberation was this: They passed a resolution requesting Mr.A.R.Dickey, P.to be the representative of the Dominion Temperance Alliance in Parliament, and also that Mr.Julius Seriver be assoc:ated with him in the work.It was tbe

petitions were presented this afternoon of considerable importance to Montreal, Messrs.Semple, of Wellington, and Henderson, of Halton, introduced petitions from the County Coun- cilg of those counties asking that Parliament shall pass such regulations as shall order that all cattle exported from the Dominion shall be allowed fall space of 2feet 8 inches by 8 feet, whether classed as stockers or otherwise.\u2018lho petitioners contend that under the pres- + ent regulations, by which five stockers are allowed the space on shipboard set apart for four fat cattle, animals weighing over 1400 pounds are marked as stockers and overcrowding results.The difference to shippers in freight is only 10 per cent, which is more than lost by the bruised condition of cattle on arrival in the Old Country.\u2018The petitioners aver that shipowners are the only persons who benefit by the doubling-up system, and that if their request is granted, it will put a stop to the practice of sbipping heavy cattle as stockers, prevent overcrowding and place the cattle trade generally in more healthy condition.It is understood that petitions to this effect are to be received from all county conncils of Ontario.Condolences From Parliament, The address of condolence to the Queen, of which Mr: Abbott gave notice this evening, is as follows: To the Queen's most Excellent Majesty: MOST GRACIOUS

Dr.Wick steed, Sandford Fleming and others.Secretary Dixon read the annual report, which referred to the death of Sir John Macdonald and Hon.Mr.Mowatt\u2019s declaration in favor of the integrity of the Empire.The Bering Sea dispute was mentioned a8 a striking example of the absurdity of the whole affairs of the Empire being managed from one portion only.The visit to Lord Balisbury last summer

regret.A telegram apologizing for non-attend- ance was read from Sir Leonard Tilley, the League\u2019s president.Upon motion of Mr.Cockburn a resolution was passed expressing pleasure at the rapid progress made in gland in favor of preferential duties and ordered to be sent to Col.Howard Vincent, M.P.Mr.Hamilton Merritt moved, seconded by Mr.J.Castell Hopkins, tne following resolution: I That in the event of Inter-Imperial preferential trade relations being adopted in the British Empire, it ia the opinion of the League that Canada will be found ready and willing to bear a just and reasonable nropor- tion of Imperial responsibilities.Mr.H.J.Wickham moved a rider to the resolution as follows: \u2018*And that such relations can best be established and such responsibiilties most conveniently borne, both by the mother country and the colonies, by providing a revenue for Imperial defence from a small uniform ad valorem duty on all importations from foreign countries, Both resolution and rider were discussed at considerable length, but the chairman ruled the rider out of order, as it was a substentive motion.Dr.Weldon, M, P., warned the league to be careful not to ask that Canada should undertake any very heavy burdens.We had spent $70,000,000 cn the C.P.R.which, though primarily a domestic work, would become an Imperial high way,and this amount would have to be considered in any arrangement with Britain.He could not see how the scheme of preferential duties would work.Mr.Cockburn, M.P., moved, seconded by Mr.MacFarlane, that both resolutions be reterred to a committee for report, but this amendment was lost.Dr.Weldon favored a resolution in favor of a reduction in duties on British goods, but the proposal was not accepted by the meeting.Mr.Cockburn said he would support an amendment to the effect that Canada was prepared to lower her duties upon British imports, as far as the exigencies of our revenue will allow, in return for the benefits given the Dominion by the protection of the Imperial army and Davy and the coneular service.: Mr.Thomas Macfarlane and Col, Deni- son, M.P., objected to any such proposalf as it would immediately be said in Eng- lard that Canada was going in for free trade.They must meet Britain in the spirit of bargaining, Mr.Cockburn then moved : \u201cThat it is the opinion of the Imperial Federation League of Canada that Canada is prepared to make reductions on dates on Dglish goods in exchange for similar concessions,\u2019 No seconder could be found for this motion, and Mr.Merritt\u2019s original resolution was carried on division, Col.(O\u2019Brien and Messrs.Cockburn and Weldon dissenting.Mr.Wickham\u2019s rider was rejected, the old officers were re-elected the meeting adjourned.The Weather, Toroxro,

national speed-skating championships, but the prospects are decidedly poor.The Man- attan Athletic Club made every pre- peration to conduct those interesting races and deserves full credit for the enterprise shown, even though the elements prevented the contests from being held.The club\u2019s director of skating, Gustavus C.Walton, wili take advantage of any cold snap that may provide enough ice up the river and will put the program through, giving the contestants one day\u2019a notice.The curlers have had a fair share of sport.all things considered.Saveral of the Grand National Club matches had t > be postponed, it is troe, beocauss of lack of ice outdoors, but this was made up for in a measure by the indoor curling at the Hoboken and Yonkers covered rinke.The event of their season was the big international bonspiel at Toronto early in Jannary.The Americans playad 34 rinks against as many Canadian \u201cfours,\u201d and made a splendid showing compared to that of the previous match.They demonstrated fully the remarkable progrees they have made in the game during the past five years.An effort is to be made next winter to introduce curling in the big athletic clubs.The Manhattan A.C.has already taken the iritial step by electing William T.Shedd director of carling.Mr.Shedd is an exert at the game, and means to de- velon several crack rinks among the M.Children Cry for A.C.members.He is one of the oldest members of the American Carling Club, and usually skipe one of the rinks in the more important matches.The other clubs, it is expectsd, will follow the Manhattar\u2019s lead 1a taking up this most interesting and healthful wia- ter game.Mr.Shedd suggests that the big colleges would do well to introduce curling a8 one of their regular sports.\u201c They have no form of intercollegiate competition during the winter,\u201d says he, \u201cand curling is just the thing for them.The exercise ia excellent, and the college athletes could find no better means of keeping in condition during the winter months.A curling championship series by Harvard, Yals and Princeton would hp sure to Create a big amount of interest.\u201d + ps

ATHLETICS.Starter See of Fame, Who Acted as Referes Nearly Mobbed.The Sun says: An event not down on the program occurred at the monthly boxing show of the Triton Athletic Clab, held on Saturday night at tha clubs headquarters in West Forty-fifth-street, snd but for the timely interference of several of the club\u2019s officials the affair would have undoubtedly wound upina free fight.Sam See, of the Acorn Athletic Club, was the innocent cause of ail the trouble.He was asked to referee the bouts, and consented.Now hs wishes he had not, for he came out of the affair pretty rudely used up and suffering from a severe cut on the mouth and otherwise injured about the face.The trouble occurred during a special bout between Billy Ross ot the Hanover Atbletic Club and Billy McNichol, said to be a member of the Tritons.The lads had fought three rounds without advantage to either.The judges disagreed, Referee See ordered an extra round of two minutes.Ross had all the best of the round, doing all the leading aod geiting in the most nnmber of blows, but the judges again disagread, The referee, acting under the rules, awarded the bout to Rosa.As soon as the decision wag announcad bedlam broke loose.The frieads of Mc- Nichol ehouted and crowded upon tbe stage, anxious to get a crack at See.He | stood there alone and comparatively |! friendless, and while he was thinking ; how to get out of the place Jack McNichol, | the brother of the defeated man, cams up ° from behind and hit him a heavy blow | under the ear.He followed this up by | punchiag his victim in the mouth, cat- tong it badly and loosening nearly all his frout teeth.The cowardly attack was sogudden that See bad no time to defend himself.He finally got away from the scene without further harm.A committees of members of the club | Pitcher\u2019sCastoria iTHE MONTREAL HERALD?vigited See at kis house on Staten Island yesterday, and apologized for the traat- ment which he had received.They said that his decision was à just one, that tt.ey were not at fault for the attack, and they would do all they could to ses that be received satisfaction.McNichol has nt been a member of the Tritons for tne est eight months, still the committee promised tbat they would see that he is properly punished.The New Athletic Club in Montreal Will be Soon Started.Nothing has been said of late regarding the proposed new athletic clab in this city, and matters lay in abeyance just at presence, owing to 8 few formalities required, but it is certain that the club will be opened, and success is az sured; Arrangements haye almost been completed for the inaugaral contest, which will likely take place between Mike Lucie, the Troy middleweight, and Jack Slavin, brother of the famous Frank P.The opening will take place

ofthe parties interested in tte match have gone to New Orleans.Prof.Loris reluctantly agreed to the i ostponement, although he thinks he is ntitled to the deposit, as he was ready \u201cpd willing togo on with the match.The referee will name another date wken he retarns from New Orleans.CHESS.Bteinitz fs the Champion Chess Player of the World.A Havana despatch says: The greal chess contest is over.The Austro- American has added a new leaf to his laurel wreath, and once more has upheld his title as the champion of the world.\u2018When play began this aftsrnoon there was much excitement.Steinitz, too, had lost his coolness, as was shown by pacing up and down the room while it was Lis opponent's turn to play.The Russian opened the 23rd game of the match by advancing his king\u2019s pawn two squares, which he followed up by P- K B4 as soon as Steinitz made his reply, P-K 4.Eteinitz took the'offered pawn amid intense excitement.The Russian played for all he was worth.He rapidly developed his pieces, and soon Steinitz\u2019s game was hemmed in.Onthe 28th move Tachigorin\u2019s win wag a foregone conclusion.Steinitz defended himself in his difficult position as well as he could, but when Tschigorin brought his second rook 1nto play the veteran seemed unable to ward off tha deadly blow.On the 13th move the strain told upon the junior master.Tschigorin broke down with a fearful blunder, which lost him the game and match on the 32ad move, Thus ended one of the most ine teresting and important contests in the history of chess.J TURE.Something Concerning the Great Horse Fcxhall, Foxhall is being visited by hundreds of horsemen every day in New York since his arrival.Twelve years ago Mr.James R.Keene, Foxhall Keene's father, sent this grand representative of the American thoro 19h - bred tothe old country to compete for the richest stakes of the English and French turf.Those two other great American horses, Iroquois, winner of the English Derby anc St.Leger, and Parole, who swept everything betore him, were th» companions of Foxhall.Mr, Keene\u2019s representative was heavily handicapped in sll the events in which he started, but notwithstanding this he succeeded in plac- irg to his credit that greatest of all French races, the Grand Prix, and landed the greatest autumn handicaps on the Engheh turf, the Cambridgeshire and Czarowitch\u2014a feat never before accom- plisbed by any other horse.The story of the victories of Foxhall, Iroquois and Parole in foreign lands form one of the brightest pages in the history of the American turf, After his brilliant series of gucceeses in England Foxhall wae sold to Lord Rose- bery and retired to the stud.The most distinguished of his get is Costerphone, but be has got very few good horses.Some time since Mr.Keene bought him back and at once decided to bring him to this country and use him for breeding FUI poses.Race Prospects for the Season.Toronto Empire: \u201cI hear thatthis s a- son\u2019s racing will be without ths presence of that mott conscientious and magnificent racer, Redfellow, one of the best animals Canada has eyer sent out.He was overworked last year and treated with too litlle consideration.Last fall he entirely gave out, and I unders and Mr.Dawes intends sending him to the stud, where his bone, speed and substance ought to produce something good in province breds.The red and black of Mr.T.H.Love, another Montreal owner, will be also conspicuous for its absence.Next month he will sell by auction his stable of thornughbreds and trotters.That pretty Ville Marie and the speedy little sprinter Polydora will likely be flying other colors in the May time.\u201d ee RING, The Big Fight To-Night Between Fitz- simmons and Maher, NEw ORLE ANS, March 1.\u2014All arrangements are completed for the Maher- Fitzsimmons fight to-morrow night.Tle call on the Olympic Club for seats is so great that the club is in doubt as to whether they will have enough for all.To accommodate the overflow the clab have built two additional galleries over and behind the regulated seats, each of wbich will accommodate 500 persons, thus making the total seating capacity about 7000.The interior of the club house has been profusely decorated with bunting, carnival, and other flags.Some visitors to-day were offering as high as $150 for boxes seating six persons, but they were not to be had at any price.The amphitheatre and 1ing were viait- ed to-day by a large number of pergons,including many ladies,and there was quite acrowd in attendance atthe laying of the cornerstone of the Olympic\u2019's nsw club bouse.A prize is always offerad by the club to the member who comes nearest Children cry for to naming the winner of a fight and the number of rounds fought.\u2018I'he blackboard shows that the prefersnce of the club stand two to oe in favor of Fits simmons as againgt Maher.The average guess for the fight is 20 rounas, but the Maher men generally think that he will pound the Au.tralian out in less time than that, The Condition of the Meo.A reporter spent the day with Fils and was permicted to see him waigh.After Fitz had been rubbed down the visitor was allowed to prod and «ven punch the long fellow in the diaphragm.This is a mighty pleasant thing to do, when you know the man you are pound- | ing will not hit back.itz is \u201cas hard as nails.\u201d Every bit of flesh on his bones 18 like rubber\u2014that white kind of rubber need for erasures, His waist is larger round by four inches than when he fought Dempsey, but this additional flesh appears to be perfectly bard and as unlike deadweight as possible.There is also a great deal more flesh on Bob\u2019s limbs than there was on that memorable occasion.His general appearance is that of a man in really perfect condition.Any man who can run six miles at a pace which, to 8 casual observer, might ook like sprinting speed, them chop down a pine tree fifteen inches in diam- er in less than three minutes, punch a sg for 10 rounds, and, as 8 sort of co - ial after dinner, box six strapping fellows untii their wind gives oat, must be _ pretty fairshape.This 18 what Fitz \u201cd, among other things, while the news= aper man was with nim.c ~ if any man ever had delightful training quarters Fitzsimmons is that person, obertson\u2019s roomy house stands about lf a mile from the shore of the bay, nd is one of the beat appointed places n the neighborhood.The gymnasium, » here Fitz punches the bag and exercises with dambbel)s of various weights,stands just back of the house, and is large enough to seat all the people who attend the matinees giyen every day by this remarkable fellow.Sometimes ss manyas 75 men get around to see him.They watch Fitz punch- i ing the bag with a feeling akin to awe, and the genuine admiration dis- § played for him by the residents of the eautiful place, of both sexes, is certainly surprising.They all believe he is a wonderful fighter, and he gats a dozen bouquets a day.After having disposed of à hearty dinner the pugilist became quite taikative.He enquired about Maher, and ssemed pleased when toid that the Irish champion would not weigh more than 175 pounds.\u201cI don\u2019t care what he weighs,\u201d said Fitz, \u201cfor the more pcunds he carries the heavier he will fail.\u201d \u201cYou expect then to whip him ?\u201d \u201cWell, of course, there is always more or less uncertainty about these affairs,\u201d replied Bob, brushing the bright red substance on his head and winking his blue eyes rapidly, \u201cbut somehow or other I cannot get the 1dea out of my head that I will whip Maher 1n one round.Just before I fought McCarthy I dreamed that I would beat him in thres rounds.The same idea filled my head previous to my meeting Dempsay.This one is stronger than the others.\u201d Then Fitz and the party, Jimmy Carroll, Jim Robertson, and Johnnis Van Heoet, started for the barn-yard, whers the pugilist amused himself for half an bour feeding corn and apples to au old sow acd her five little pigs.One of the porkers has bristl:s of thà same Lua as ob\u2019s hair and they call him Fitz, He is a sjunky rogue, a mocth old, aud takes great delight in tantalizing Jimmy Carroll\u2019s pet monkey Jocko, seat to him by BM, R.Frank, of New Orleans.Fitz tossed him around, and whilg the pig squealed he dodged away from the sow, which made for him in the most hostile fashion.\u201cThat's the way I\u2019il get out of Maher's way,\u201d langhed Fitz, as he dropped his namesake and avoided one of the siw\u2019s vicious rusres.\u201cIf he bits me he will te adandy.\u201d \u201cYes \u201d echoed Carroll, \u201che\u2019il have to be mighty shifty to bitold Fitz.\u201d Carroll believes that Bob will weigh 172 pounds when he enters the ring.He 18 as confident that Maher will be easily beaten as be was that Dempsey\u2019s colors would be lowered.\u201cDon\u2019t you tell all the folks in tha city about Fitz,\u201d suog out Carroll, as the visitor jumped into a carriage headed for the depot.\u201cYou can write all you care to for our murthern friends, bat we want to get even money in New Orleans.\u201d From the looks of thirgs in this gay town to-night Carroll will have to harry upif he wants to place any great amount at that price.Uniess something happens between now and next Wednesday Fitz will be the favorite, aud a pretty hot ona at that.There is very little Maher money here as yet.When the northern delegation arrives, however, it may make a big difference.Edward Kearney, the auction sales stable map, thinks it is a cinch for Fitz.He has $6000 to bet on his opinion, and he had put out just $500 up to a late hour to-night.Charley Johnston, Sallivan\u2019s backer, arrived to-night from Hot Springs.He has been greatly benefited by the baths, and his old enemy\u2014rheu- matism\u2014appears to haye left him also- before he left town, but when he heard of Fitz's condition he decided not to put out any money until he was assured of Mahe?\u2019s fitness.\u201cIf Maher wins this fight will vou cover bis $5000 forfeit on Sullivan\u2019s] be- halt?\u201d was aeked of Mr.Johuvston., \u2018Fbat I cannot say,\u201d he answered.\u201cIt is decidedly too early in the game to talk about thet.\u201d The hotels are all crowded and everybody is talking about the coming contest quite as much as they are about the big.carnival.Will Meet Any Mau at His Weight, SPRCIAL TO THE HERALD, New York, March 1.\u2014Harry B.shor, the 115-pound pugilist of Washingtor,

Mrs.Henry Wilberforce.They all inherited the consumptive taint which had proved fatal to their two brothers, and all died young.Manning accepted vhe family living at Lavington, one of the most beautiful places in the south of England, having speedily acquired so extraordinary a reputation as a preacher, writer, exemplary parish priest and learned divine, that at the age of 32 Bishop Otter appointed him Archdeacon of Chichester.The death of his wife, four years after their marriage, closed the most blissful period of hislife, and this bereavement left a permanent impress on his

yesterday.The speaker was Miss Jane West.Miss Ramsden is perhaps the only woman in a theatrical company who can turn a complete somersault on the stage.But during the week she left the company, and the task of flip-flapping fell to Miss West.This young woman is diligent and light on her feet, and she undertook to turn somersaults, too.But her efforts were not a complete success.Thanks to a buoyant disposition, the elevation was accomplished with considerable ease, but the return to earth was too emphatic.\u2018Suppose you let the somersaults alone,\u201d said the manager,

material.De biggest hit I eber made wag in dreamin\u2019 dat I fouud a hundred dollars on de sidewalk.{ When I got up in de mawnin\u2019 and went out dar I diskivered a nickle.Dat\u2019s about de usual shrinkage of dreams so fur as my in- formashun goes.Bizness an sentiment should allus be kept separate.Wien you buy a hoss tur $50 dat\u2019s bizness.When you find he\u2019s a kicker an\u2019 a biter an\u2019 no good, an\u2019 a preacher offers you $60 for him, dat\u2019s sentiment, an\u2019 you should let him go wid rapid suddenness, .Truth, honesty, an\u2019 industry am three valuable

selfishness runnin\u2019 all frew de human race, but in some cases it am very artfully concealed.For instance, when a man rubs his back agin a freshly painted doah de owner of it pretends not to keer how much he carries off un his clothing.I have knowed a heap o\u2019 men in my time who took \u2018\u2018Excelsior\u201d fur deir motto, but I hev allus doubted whether dey got along along six days in

rule the Conservative party both in the Commons and Senate hang well together.The transaction between the rank and file and the leaders is a very simple ore.Each man hands over his political censcience to the keeping of the Cabinet and receives in return bis indemnity money, plus any little stray patronage that may be going in his district.They vote as they are told and speak as they are directed, and use their efforts to aid the common cause with all the machine like precision of a well disciplined army.This unity, undisturbed by any doubts or fears, but placing blind and implicit confidence in their leaders is one of the gecrets of Tory success.Hence when one of that party gains sufficient courage to have an opinion of his own and to give utterance to it in Parliament, it causes a veritable sensation among the more orthodox supporters of the Conservative system.Senator Boulton, in a speech delivered in the Senate House during the debate onthe address, must have nearly paralyzed his brother Conservatives by the audacity of his criticisms and the coolness with which he combatted the Government assertion that the county is prosperous and contented under the N.P, S:nator Boulton must have seen a little too much.of the inner workings ofthe Tory boodle machine and like an honest man and a good patriot, he does not let off his superfluous steam by falling foul of the unfortunate Liberals cf another province, but directly attacks the evils he knows off.Blankly and plainly he tells Premier Abbott that his Cabinet reconstruction was a mere farce, only calculated to gull the ignorant among the electors and in no way intended to restrain the immoral political methods that have been practised in support of the party.The growing power of bribery 1n elections he views with alarm and disgust, and, as Premier Abbott does net seem disposed to take any steps to bring back a regime of honesty and political purity, Ssnator Boulton anounces his withdrawal from the ranks of h's supporters.His remarke on political mor- alliy deserve to be written in letters of gold, or, better still, inscribed on tablets of gold of sufficient weight to ensure their acceptance by the venal politicians whose backs he scores.Ali Mr.Boulton\u2019s strictures on diehonesty in the public service might, however, have been given while still remaining faithful to Conservative principles and the N.P., for in such manner we should expect any upright gentleman to speak whose eyes had been opened to the corruption around him, but be has evidently partaken of the forbidden fruit and his eyes have been suddenly opened to the injury being wrought to Canada by the protect ive policy.Hecites facts and figures that have come under his own notice that have convinced him that the working of the N.P.has, so far from being benefi ¢ial, proved to be ruinous.Comparing different periods he shows that expozts have not increased, notwithstanding the large area of virgin soil brought under cultivation, on a basis of population they have actually decreased.The census is unsatisfactory.Internal trade has not been profitable, for while the people bave had a large price to pay for the commodities they require by the ine crease in duties, the net trade as repre- , sented by exports has decreased.The increase in revenue has been derived during the last ten years not from increased prosperity on the part of the people but from importation of the capital, or in other words the national policy has paid the Government but mot the people.All thie is exactly what the Liberals have contended for years, but it is satisfactory to note that the truth has at last dawned upon one who from his position and antecedents was so likely to be prejudiced in the opposite direction.mm THE THORNBURY PLATFORM.Thornbury, Ont., is but a small place, numerically speaking, but in pluck and intellect it atands high above the heaven forsaken towns of the same province whose only idea of politics is to hang on to the party in power for the hope of boodle.In Monday night's parliament ary session Doctor Macdonald, of Huron, presented a petition from the electors of Thrnbury which for comprehensiveness might well stand as the platform of the Liberal party, and yet for conciseness might form a model for all future petitions to the House.The three salient points prayed for are: (1) A greater economy in the administration of public Affairs; (2) a reduction of the present representation of the House to one- third; (3) the abolition of the Senate.- They also express a desire for free trade with the United States, but we sucull like to inquire a little further iuto tuis portion of the petition before giving it our endorsement.Win regard to the other propositions few Lib- berals will combat thera.The necessity for economy in the administration of the public service is becoming painfally apparent.Bribing the people w:th their own money is a pretty expensive proceeding, and while some of the works undertaken with that object in view are classed as assets, and represent some millions that it is usual to subtract from the gross figures, yet our experience of canals and other public works that are prosecuted by fils and starts to suit electioneering exigencies, is that the public money might as well have been dumped into the lakes, so far as any public benefit is likely to accrue from them.With an ever increasing public debt and a population almcst stationary, it is indeed time to practice economy.The reduction of the present representation of the house to one-third will meet little opposition from Liberals.In the multitade of councillors there is wisdom, we are told, but seventy members might easily bave as much wisdom among them as the present number, and would cost a great deal less.As to the abolition of the senate, there is scarcely anyone, whether Liberal or Tory, who can make any defence for its retention.It is a useless, cumberous, expensive piece of machinery, a sort of fifth wheel on the state coach, whose only discoverable purpose is to enable the premier to pension off a few staunch supporters when, on account of advancing age or for other reasons, it is desirable to get them out of the way.In every way Canada is over- governed, and in the mautiplicity of parliaments, senates, governors and other expensive machinery the public mind gets bewildered and cannot watch each member with the care that appears to be necessary and desirable, Taken altogether, the Thornbury platform is a solid and substantial one, and with a few added plarks may be found broad enough to hold the whole Liberal party.\u2014 Frou A TELEGRAM to The Herald, which appears in another column, we learn that the Supreme Court of Ohio has rendered its decision in the celebrated case of the Standard Oil Co.'s monopoly.The decision is adverse to the company, and the agreement between it and all other concerns is declared illegal.Incom- mercial clrcles this is considered one of the most important decisions ever rendered by the Supreme Court.pr THE LiBRRAL PARTY Will be gratified to see that the Hon, Wilfred Laurier has so far recovered from his recent indispos- tion as to be able to take his accustomed reat in Parliament.His speech on the address was quite up to his old time form and his loyal hearted supporters were enthusiaatic in their reception.Mr, Laurier bas passed through a trying time of late, but there is no faltering in his faith, and he carries alofi the old flag with all his former vigor.se THE MAYOR AND ALD.KENNEDY.As Galileo asserted some centuries back, \u201cthe world does move,\u201d We, who are not able to see much motion in the little span of time during which we are allowed to take part in tke procession may sometimes feel inclined to dispute the proposition, but comparisons with past times soon convince us of its truth, Take for instance the nominations of yesterday and compare them with those of twenty, thirty or forty years ago.The longer your memory will carry you back the greater will be the contrast.Ia the very heat of the moat exciting elact- ions that have perhaps ever taken placa we see all order and decorum.Between the strongest political foes hands were clasped in friendship instead of being clinched in defiance.The proceedings generally were as orderly as church meetings, and while opinions ars firmly held and each party will do its utmost to gain the day thers was an absence of all ubparliamentary language and an example given of courteous and polite conduct that was extremely gratifying.There was, however, oxe conspicuous exception,and unfortunately it took place on hustings on which the mayor of the city made his appearance.Alderman Kennedy decidedly lost his temper, and the consequence was à scene not very edifying to the votera of Bt.Ann's division, nor likely to win much support to his candidature.The breach between the alderman and the mayor was further widened by the interference of Mr.Kennedy, junior, who in a manner that spoke more for bis filial affection than bis common sense sprang on the platform and advanced upon the mayor in quite a threatening manner.Fortunately the tumult calmed down without blows being interchanged, but there was quite an exciting scene and one that amply vindicatad the wisdom of the regulation that forbids public officials from taking any active part in election contests.It would decidedly come under the heading of an exhibition of \u201coffensive partizanghip.\u201d Perhaps the fact of the relationship may be pleaded as an excuse, bat men of such excitable temperament had better be kept out of public positions.The action of the Board of Trade and merchants of the city in opposing the appointment of young Kennedy to the responsible position ot superintendent of tbe Lachine Canal seems fully justified by his conduct on his first appearance on a public platform.The mayor won golden opinions by his cool and courteous bebavior under such frying circumstances.\u2014 At any cigar store ask for Hero cigars, cnly5c.They are first clace.J.Rate tray & Co., Montreal, PIZRSONAL

The Hon.Maurice Bourke is one of the youngeat post captains in the British navy, and, as the son of the late Earl of Mayo and a chum of the Duke of Edin- burg, has a pull as strong as a fifteen- inch wire cable.But all this will not save him from being court-martialed and, probably, \u201cbroke\u201d for running the Victoria ashore in waters so shallow that a clam fisher would have considered it a

devising and carrying out this unique entertainment: Messrs Thomas Collins, H Ryan, Bruno C Barbeau, J W Barrie, F Vincent, James Watty, F Donovan, P T Mc- Golderick, J A McShane and P T Scan- lana Five Years\u2014~He Deserves No Fr ieads.A printer named Joseph Bellac pleaded guiity yesterday morning before Judge Dugas to the theft of $29 and a quantity of clothing from the residence of bis brother-in-law, Mr.Albert Ber- geron.The judge promptly sentenced the culprit to five years\u2019 imprisonment in the penitentiary of St.Vincent de Paul.Orly last summer a pstition signed by a large namber of highly respectable citizens was gotten up by Bellac\u2019s relatives to have him released from tbe penitentiary, where he was serving a three years\u2019 term.He was pardoned, but had only been out two days when he again began to make himself a nuisance to bis fimilv and sccie'y, This being known to the judge, probably iofluenced him in sentencing tLe accused.\u2014\u2014r-_ Garza Sick

Gen.Stanley, and under certain conditions arrange for fhe surrender of Garza to the military authorities, The matter was delicately broached to the general through attorneys, but he refused to entertain any proposition other than an unconditional sarrender.THE MONTREAU HERALD STAGE AND FOYER Thos.W.Keene ia Louis XI\u2014At the Other Theatres.The new adaption of Sir Walter Scott's famous novel, \u201cQaenten Durward,\u201d made by Edwin Arden, and styled Louis XI., does not reflect any very great credit on the playwright, for beyond providing for the exhibition of the talents of the great tragedian who does so much for it, the play is entitled to the lowest place inthe 1epertoire of this great artist.It serves admirably to bring out the versatility 0: Keene, but otherwise partakes too much of improbability, and encroaches upon observances hardly within the province of the stage to depict.The play hinges upon the following plot: The Duke de Nemours, @ scion of one of the most noble houses in France, has seen his father executed and his paternal estatas confiscated to satisfy the revenge of a vindictive old king who bears a grudge against the ancient house of Nemours.The young duke, driven into exile, seeks protection at the powerful court of Charles of Burgundy, whers he obtains favor and returns to France as the envoy of Charles, Marie de Commines, the daughter of the court historian, bas long cherished a secret passion for the exiled youth, and when he discovers himeelf to her, she, knowing the hatred of the king, trembles for his satety.Triston, the marshal cf the king, overhearing a conversation, suspects that the envoy is tbe exiled French nobleman, and communicates bis suspicions to the crafty old king.Louis, in order to get Marie to betray the identity of the envoy, offers to pardon the Duke de Nemours.In the meantime the king has granted the envoy an audience, who denounces him as the murderer ot his father before the whole court.Louis, to further his plans, pretends to pardon the conduct of theenvoy, but secretly orders the henchman to waylay and kill him.As the plot proceeds news is brought to the court of the death of Charles of Burgundy, just as the envoy 18 about to depart, whereupon Lcü:s orders Nemour\u2019s arrest and 6xecu- tion.Marie is beside herself with grief and geeks the assistance of the Dauphin.He promises to pardon him as soon as be ascends the throne, but in the meantime the king dies, and with bis dying breath forgives him and thus all ends well, The character of Louis is a strange one, for while openly committing the most flagrant crimes, the terrors of future punishment are ever uppermost in his mind.Ciinging tenaciously to life, he yet by bis every action courts death.Mr.Keene in a marvellous manner interpreted the exceedingly trying role of this eccentric king, whose outward cring- ingand servile attitude towards thechurch he outwardly worshipped, though secretly denied.One moment he is defying all powers temporal and spiritual, the next he is grovelling in the dast imploring supernatural aid.Some of the scenes were very telling, or at least they were made so by the wonderful skill of the great artist.Itis a play which entirely depends for its success on the individual efforts of Mr.Keene whogives continuous evidence that he is a complete master of his art in every detail.The support as equal to the requirements of the piece,the Marie of Miss Alberta Gallatin being exceedingly good.1t is to-night, however, that Mr.Keene will be seen at his best when he assumes that role which more than all others has won for him renown.\u2014Richard IIL The Theatre Royal, \u201cDangers of a Great City\u201d was ra- peated at the Theatre Royal last night to a large and enthusiastic audience.The play has made a hit here, and is sure to draw lagge houses during the balance of the engagement.The Galety Girls, The audiences at the Lyceum this week are large and well pleased with the Gaiety Girls.The program is a good one, and during the balance of the week the house will doubtless be crowded.: Master and Man, Randolph Murray, sn actor whode abilities are too well known to need praise, is to play a leading part in \u201c Masel ter and Man?\u201d at the Royal next week It will be a big attraction.er ORANGE OFFICERS Elected at the Close of the Annual Session This

HERALD.New ORLkANs, March 1.\u2014A meagre assemblage of sports congregated in the Metropolitan Club rooms to-night to witness the welterweight fight between Needham and Jack Barke, the latter {aking the place of Tommy Ryan, who 18 still suffering from throat affection.Burke consented to take Ryan\u2019s place about 1 o\u2019clock this morning, and President Cooper hastily made arrangements to have the fight come off to-night.Jack Burke is the boxing instructor of the Young Men\u2019s Club and considered fairly clever as a boxing instructor.He trained Ryan up to the time of the latter\u2019s illness, Needham wes in firat class condition, Prof.Duffy acted as refaree.Honors were about even up to tha third round, when Needham ssemed to have the best of the hitting.In this round Needham landed a heavy right on the mouth, drawing first blood, but Burke Was cute enough to draw it in until ha 8pit out several mouthfuls.Up to the tenth round the men fought fast and it Was give and take, In the tenth Needham landed a heavy left on the mouh knocking Burke down, Needhsm falling with his man.The men got up and Needham knocked Burke out with a rattling right hander on the jaw.Burke made a gallant fight, however, against superior strength and science, seldom if ever excelled in a New Orleans club.It was a good fight taking it all 1a all, and the many rsons who remained away thinking Neadham had a cioche will regret not baving been present hen the details of the battle are given \u2014 WRESTLING.W.H.Quina\u2019s Offer to Wrestle Any Man in the World.W.H.Quinn, the champion wrestler of Canada, forwards the following challenge accompanied by $100 as deposit : Sporting Editor Herald : ** I make the following offer to all wrestlers in Canada: I will wrestle any man in the world at collar and elbow style for five hundred dollars a side, or I will wrestle any man living a match at three or five styles, or I will wrestle any five men in the world, each man a different style, I to win three falls out of five or I will wrestle any man in Canada a match at five styles and allow him one fall.I understand Mr.McMillan, my late antagonist, says he can beat me and will wrestle any place or time, Now, I will meet Mr.Mc.Millan as follows : Collar and elbow for $500 a side four weeks from signing articles; best two falls in three, in private, or if in public, the gate money, if any, to go to the poor of Cornwlll.I will meet him ina five style match and allow him two falls oh the same terms, or in a three style match will give him one fall.Now, Mr, Editor, thisis not a bluff, but I am anxious to show the sporting public that I am willing to meet all comers and am not looking for the best ofit.Any or all matches to be arranged through The Montreal Herald, and The Montreal Herald to appoint the referee and hold all stake money.W.H.QUIKN, Pres TROTTING.The Great Trotters Will Come Together Next Summer.Allen Lowe in The Boston Globe says: New England\u2019s association is growing and the day is not far distant when big money will be hung up by that body for all comers.\u2018What is wasted to thoroughly popularize the sport in Boston is to give some of the sensational events that haye been proven to be sure money earnerg for the promoters.I do not know of any really good trotting event of national importance that has not paid well for the investment.Where it not for the fact that J.Malcolm Forbes had decided not to start Arion this seagon, there are the elements of a race in New England that would gather the lovers of the trotting horse from Maine to California I have no authority to say that Col.Thayer would match Ralph Wilkes against Arion, bat I do know he will start in any race that the great young Electioneer does in New England, and his owner will pay as good an entrance as any one, If it could be arranged to give a 3-year- old race, open to the worid, Don.J.Leathers has told me that he will put Monbars in it against anything of his age that wears iron and that goes at the trot.This would also let im Mr.Hamlin with his handsome filly, Chimes Girl, and for Monroe Salisbury\u2019s Director filly, and not bar out Asnorean or any ot that strips of sensational 2-year-olds.Any association on earth could afford to give a $10,000 purse for such a race, and this, added to say a $2500 sweap all round, would buy a fair kind of a colt Îteelf.Say that the six named should go ip, it would be a total of $25,000, giving four moneys of $12,500, $6250, $3750 aud $2500.It would give the three fillies a little the best of it, for each of the colts are to stand for mares this spring, but then the colta can afford a handicap of that kind, If the breeders could arrange for such a race and induce the owners ol Arlon, Monbars and Ralph Wilkes to start, a better line could be taken on the ability of each on neutral ground and under new conditions.Would it pay the bresders ?There can be no doubt of it.From end to end of the country it would awaken greater interest than any race that could possibly be arranged.Three in five to harness, scora ap in your places, and may the best horse win.Why, there\u2019s no grand stand that would hold the crowd that would cheer the victor.\u2018Which would win 2 The man who could tell need never work à day again in nis life.Constantine, the young horse buught by Graham & Conley, will be seea in New England this season if nothing hap- ns to him.His mark of 2.19$ allows im in the Charter Oak stake and the Thayer (stallion stake, two great oppar- tunities to show how farhe has improved on his 4-year-old form.He will have a hot field in each event should he stars, but it is sure that any horse that beats him will go three merry heats for the money, A matter that has never re- celved the proper attention of the trotting horsemen 18 the dress of the drivers in races.What a sorry looking spectacle it would be to see the jockeya oa runners in the nondescript array to be found at some of the trotling races.Every ass» ciation should take such action as will make the \u201cshirtsleeve brigade\u201d appear in propar costume.t is for their own interest.Montreal Driving Park.The present season has been one of the most successful in the history of this popular park, and has been taken fall advantage of by hundreds of city horsemen who delight to speed their flyers.The list of members embraces all the leading trotting horsamen in this section, and any fine afternoon may be witnessed splendid exhibitions of the light bhargess performer.The track \\ during the winter has been under ths management of Mr.Dan Doanel!ly, who certainly deserves credit fur the sp endid manner in wbich he has carr1+d out ail the arrangements.The meeting tn be beld tc-morrow afternoon will likely attract a large number of spectators as two interesting events are on the card, viz, a named race and a five mile dash, in the former of which there are 10 probable starters.The track is now in euperb condition, &8 à reault of the recent cold snap and the contests sbonld be very exciting.Should the weather continue favorable, for a few weeks longer, several interesting matinees will be arranged, which will give the lovers of winter racing ample sport.A Match Race.A match race was trotted at the Montreal Driving Park yesterday afternoon, between A.B.Maloney\u2019s Sunset and Giteau\u2019s Berthier Boy for $100 a side.The conditions cal ed for tha owners to drive.Sunset easily carried off tha first heat and lost the second but settled down in the third and fourth and was driven to victory.Summary : A.B.Maloney\u2019s Sunset.1211 A.Gibeau\u2019s Berthier Boy.2122 \u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 MR.HYMAN'S SEAT.Continued From

that it would be of a very simple nature.He defended the Government frcm the charge of manipulating the voters\u2019 lists and said tbat if all bye-elections had not been beld on the same day it was because such a course would have se divided the attention of those best fitted to explain public affairs that discussion would bave been out of the question.The address was then passed.Mr.Abbott announced that on Thursdav he would propose an address of condolence to the Queen and a message of sympathy tothe Prince and Princess of Wales on the death of the Duke of Clarence, and the Senate

and not only do they swish along with a soft frou-frou, bus a clever woman understands how to sit down and modestly display just a suspicion of her silk petticoat.Black silk skirts are worn by ladies in mourning for muddy days, and by those rather economically inclined, who make one do the duty of several.Black is always stylish, but we must confess a \u201csneaking regard\u201d for the lovely colors and combinations shown in the glaces.\u2014Dry Goods Economist.Rats\u2019 Heads as Ornaments.Rats\u2019 heads are hardly the ideal ornament for à pretty woman.Yet it appears they are common enough this winter.Furriers, finding the demand heavy for furry heads on muffs, boas and hats, began at first by supplying those of the mink instead of the orthodox sable.The mink heads were soon exhausted, and then they fell back on the squirrel.Accidentally it was discovered that rats\u2019 heads could be dressed to look exactly like those of the squirrel.Since + then the rat catchers have been reaping a small harvest, and many a fashionable dame, who rather fancies the sharp \u2018nose and bead-eyed little heads that deck her furs, is admiring those of the common rodent, at which she would scream heartily were she to meet him in the fleah somewhere in the basement of her house.It is a carious circumstance that sable should have come into fashion so decidedly and so suddenly this winter.Every cours in Europe is in mourning, and sable ard sealskin are, as is well known, the only colored furs that can be worn in mourning.\u2014London Letter in Chicago Herald.Dinner Table Decorations.Dainty scarfs of lace and aatin are again used for the decoration of dinner tables, the favorite ones being of bolting cloth, with band-painted sprays and vines, trailing from one end to another.Ferns, truly growing from silver jardinieres, are still used, and the fresh green effect is just a bit of nature in which the eye delights, 8ay, Chollie, v.here did vou get that frar?Ox.thgis L.O, G 1 e&C: 8 iamous Rialto;
