CHABOILLEZ SQUARE SALOON THE SCENE OF THE TRAGEDY.Police Again at Fault\u2014A Stranger Whose Whereabouts Remnain & Mystery.ELTERING in a pooj of blood in a little back room of a Cha- boillez Square saloon last évening lay the body of a young man whose suicide was the ending of a sad, misspent life.The old square was crowded with people assinz along to their homes, the bar of the hotel kept by Crevier on the corner oi In spcctor was doing a big business, when sudd>nly à pistol shot rang ous from the yer of the building.To those passing along Inspector Street it was evident that the shot came from a Lack room of the hotel; the window was open and immediately a throng of excited peopl battled for supremacy in an endeavor to get a glimpse of what was going on.Hotel Keeper Crevier, followed by dozens of men, rushed from the Lar to the rear, and there, in a small room, lay the dead body of young C.A, Lepailleur, the son of the late Bailiff J.A.Lepaillear.The boy\u2014he was only twenty-three\u2014had disgraced his family, had been under arrest for embezzlement.His father fell dead Trre SUICIDE\u2014C, À.LEPAILLEUR.through his misdeeds after he had saved his son from the penitentiary, and the climax to the sad story came when the young man deliberately placed a revolver to his head, fired and fell to the ground a corpse.One of the first on the scene of the tragedy was a Herald representative.The excitement was such that pen can scarce describe it.Many thought that murder had been done and though this is quite possible the circumstances all point to suicide.Tothe people, however, who were present and who soon learned that a man had entered the saloon with Lepailleur, had drank with him and then had disappeared, perhaps after tbe shot was fired, there Was no excuse for the apathy shown by the police authorities.Not an effort was made to find that stranger, This worked up the excitement and for hours crowds stood and discussed the shooting.THE SUICIDE AN EMBEZZLER.In his schooldays Lepailleur was exceedingly bright and after his education was completed he got a position as one of the tellers in the City and District Savings Bauk.Here he was well liked and trusted.But prosperity was voo much for him.Dissolute companions, whiskey and billiards, soon got him into debt and he resolved on a desperate scheme.Forging a note for $250 Le handed it to a companion, who waited till Lepailleur reached the bank; then he presented the cheque and got the money.The twa met afterwards and were soon on the way to Chicago.They were traced immediately and Lepailleur was brought back for punishment.Nearly five hundred doliars was needed to pay the expenses of the arrest aud the amount of the forged cheque, but if this could Le raised, Lepailleur might be saved from the jail.His father took compassion and every cent he owned went to save the boy.The law lost its prey and the prisoner went free.IT KILLED THE FATHER.Scarce three months had passed ere it was seen that the son\u2019s disgrace was telling upon the father.Gradually the old man fuiled as he fretted over his troubles and on the evening of Nov.2, of last year he complained of his health, fearing that the end Was near.The following day he knelt in Prayerin his home, 170 Sanguinet Street, and as he rose to his feet he staggered, With the words © God save my sou,\u201d he fell to the ground and was dead.biLhis somewhat straightened young Le- pailleur and shortly afterwards he lett for Texas.The story of his crime followed him and he lost his situation, soon returning to Montreal.Here he again found en- Joyment in drink and bad companions.On Friday last he said to a friend : \u201cIf you had a revolver to give me I would shoot myself now, in front of you.\u201d His companions, however, never thought that he meant what he said, but evidently he did.y The deceased had many and had friends whose he accepted it, him.Among these m good qualities warning, had would have saved 12y be mentioned the fencing school of Professor Comte.On March 29th, 1890, Le Monde Mu ; at y Alust - lished a picture of the Professor rad pupils, one of them being the at suicide of last night, s unfortunate THE PROPRIETOR\u2019S STORY.At twenty minutes to six o\u2019clock last evening two men entered the saloon and restaurant occupied by Mr.Crevier at No.2 Chaboillez Square.According to Mr.LG.Creviers statement both men appeared to bo perfectly sober.One of these was the deceased ; the other is described ag Leing of more than medium height, thin In appearance and dressed in a gray suit.The men called for drinks and turned Into à private room to the left of the entrance.Mr, Crevier stales that the men were served aud that he paid no more attention to them until the sound of a shot srncling throngh the building turned the roa Sep ordered establishment into à The Proprietor rushed from behind th bar, dazed at first by the report, and when he collected himself, he turned to the rear of the building where there was another room for restaurant purposes.On attempting to open the door, he found an obstrue- tion, which turned out to lethe body of the unfortunate Lapailleur.The victim of the rash act was perfectly dead when found.A gaping wound in his right temple, an inch above and a little to the front of his right ear indicated where the fatal ball had entered.Among those who followed Crevier was Joseph Langlois, contractor, of Ontario Street.Mr.Langlois states that the unfortunate man was quite dead when he entered.The floor of the ittle room was saturated with blood and the table furniture was scattered about.There was not a trace of Lepailleur\u2019s friend.Neither thea, nor since the entrance of the {wo men, was anything seen of the man in the gray suit.WAS IT MURDER?_ When the corpse was discovered Crevier immediately called in the policeman on that beat.The officer promptly telephoned for the Notre Dawe Hospital ambulance and the body was at once removed.On enquiry af the hospital the Herald representatives were told that the man was dead and had heen taken to the Morgue, At this place thebody was found.In the meantime every trace of a possible crime had been destroyed, owing to the number ot bands through which the body had passed and the admittance of the public to the scene of the affair.£ t the Mergue where the body was ulti?mately taken it was found fthat Lepailleur had been instantly killed by a single shot from a 32 calibre revolver.\u201d The body presented the appearance of a well dressed man of heavy build, clad in a veut dark suit, with a summer shirt and turned down collar.From cards found in his pocket, the identity of the deceased wus learned.In addition to the ghastly wound in the right side of the head the deceased's left eye was badly blackened.This may have been the result of the shot.IDENTIFIED THE DECEASED.Among those who appeared at the Morgue to identify the body was Albert Plante, of 1447 Ontario Street.He stated that he met Lepailleur on St.Lawrence Street on \u2018Tuesday might.The deceased appeared to be in good spirits and had not been drinking.Adolphe Larin, livery stable Leeper, of Lagauchetiere Street, also identified the body, He stated that Lepailleur had hired a carriage from him some days ago, and through that business transaction he was able to identify him, THE INQUYST.An inquest will be held to-day, but the facts are so straight that it is hardly con sidered necessary, lt would, however, be interesting if the police could find out who the stranger was,

Jast year.The invested funds exceed $206,000 being an increase of $3,500 on the investments of 1893.At the close of the present financial year, 204 ministers, 151 widows of ministers, and 82 orphans,

Murray Bay, and the damage will amount nearly to $55,000, while the insurances hardly reach $20,000.The first report concerning the disaster necessarily contained some inaccurate details, and the news that the two extensive stores of Mr.Wm.Warren had been destroyed was premature.The store of Mrs.Joseph Bouchard was the only one burnt down.There was no insurance on the latter.Most of the insurances are on the Guardian and Phenix Companies.The old and historic Ursuline Monastery of Quebec was yesterday thrown open to the public for the second time in the space of two hundred and fifty vears and

COMPLAINTS.The Committers Report\u2014Temporary Scheme of Relief At a meeting of the Harbor Commissioners\u2019 Committee on Pilots, Beacons and Buoys, held yesterday afternoon, the petition recently received from the tour- de-role pilots, and the application for a pension to Pilot Damase Cayen, who has become unable to Pilot owing to a stroke of paralysis on the 20th ultimo were considered, when the following report was drawn up for submission to the Commissioners at their next mectting: \u201cThe committee report that they have forwarded to the Committee of Pilots for their consideration the accompanying letter, and recommend that the matter be allowed to remain pending a reply.\u201cMeantime for the Purpose of gignz immediate relief for the balance of this year that tLe Dominion Coat Company be requested to consider the selection of one or more pilots in addition \u2018to those already arranred for on their steamers, under the existing regu- QUIL HS, \u2018The committee also recommend that a pension at the rate of $150 per bunum be granted to Pilot Damase Cayen.Andrew Allan, chairman; Victor Hudon Richard White.» \u2019 The letter to the pilots is as follows: \u201cThe Committee of Pilots, Beacons and Buoys have had under consideration the representations made by Mr.Arcand on behalf of the Mr, Auger, as representing the selected pilots and yourselves sp.uns \u2019 body.\u2018The Committee of the Harbor Commissioners would he glad before making any specific recommendation to the Board if you would kindly intimate on Dehali of the pilots your views of the following proposals, which, if agreeable to the pilots, would be recommended by this Committee to the Harbor Commissioners for adoption: \u201c1.Would it be satisfactory to the body of pilots to pass a resolution authorizing the employment of pilots holding branches Lbetwcen Montreal and Quebec by colliers or other vessels trading with the Lower Provinces, at a fixed salary as might be agreed between the pilot and the ship's agent, such men of course to be taken off the tour-de-rola and lightening it to that extent, i.e, the pilots so engaged would he engaged as regular officers of the ship and would take charge of the vessels as pilots between Montreal and Quebec, remaining, however, under the jurisdiction of the Board and being required to pay poundage on earnings and being entitled to superannuation.The torr-terts nitnte nu dL Pou Wid \u201c2, The abolition of the tour-de-role entirely and giving to every pilot the right to arrange with the ship owners upon such terms as they desired for the pilotage between the two points, the present tariff being of course regarded as a maximum of charges that might be collected, \u201cIn the opinion of the Commiitce, if the sugeestions made at the late conference were adopted it would lead to the acceptance of the second of these propositions, but it is such a radical one that they hesitate about recommending its adoption without having a clear authoritative statement from the pilots that it would meet their views.\"The first proposition might be adopted at once and would probably take a couple of names off the tour-de-role, and to that extent give a better opportunity for all the pilots to make some money.\u201d Beginning to-night Mme.Herrmann will for the first time in Montreal present her famous

SCALE OR CURRENT WAGES IN PUBLIC WORKS.Fault Found With a Provincial Face tory Inspector \u2014 Government Hecelers Not Wanted.[Special to the Herald.) Ottawa, Sept.5.\u2014The first order of business taken up at the Trades and Labor Congress to-day was communications.Mr, Lepine, M.P., Montreal, was present.A communication asking the Congress to send delegates to the Deep Water Convention to be held in Toronto, was referred to a Special Committee.The question of a Saturday half holiday asked by the Bricklayers Union was also referred to a special committee.A resolution asking for a clause in Gov- ernmen\u2019 contracts to compel the contractors paying the highest scale of wages was referred to a standing committee, Delegate O'Donoghue moved and delegate A.W.W.Holmes seconded the following resolution: Resolved that the expenditure of any public money, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of assisting, honusing, encouraging or decoying emigrants of either or both the classes mentioned adult or juvenile from abroad to Canada is unnecessary and unjustiable under such dircumstances.\u2018Be it resolved further, That as a consequence of the existence of such a condition of the labor market in the Dem- inion of Canada, the existing unjust and misleading system of gration, as well as like expenditure on the part ot all the provinces except British Columbia, should be abnlished and only those possessed of financial wealth should be encouraged to the country; Be it resolved still further, That Parliamentary Committee of this be an instruction to the Executive gress to prepare and present to the Hon, the Minister of Intcrior and Immigration of Canada and the several emigration bureaus of the Provinces a duly certitied copy of this resolution, and th.t they press upon {heir attention the great importance of this subject to workingmien; also that a certified copy of the same be forwarded to His Excel- Jency the Governor-General, for such action as to him may scem most desira- Lie.Jt was referred to a standing committee.Delegate Darlington, of Montreal, moved a resolution that inasmuch as the trades and labor congress had found it impossible to secure any changes required from any of the political parties that the seweral labor organizations of the Dominion unite in the forming of a distinctive labor party with the hope of securing some of the changes which the working men so much require.The resolution was seconded by Delegate Met- calfe, of Montreal.Delegate Darlington, speaking on his resolution, said that last session of Parliament the Dominion Government only passed three bills of interest to the workingmeu out of the 140 bills which were entirely antagonistic to labor.Ile insisted on the labor party being independent so as to force some of the political parties doing something for the cause of labor.He said that many members of Congress had become connected with that bodv as a stepping stone to political offices.Delegate Jobin, of Quebee, asked for names, hut Delegate Darlington said that he made no charge against any person.The discussion was ruled out of order until it Con- on the commmittee reported.;_ The Committee on Standing Orders re- i ferred back the resolution relating to Government contracts.The resolution is as : lows: Moved by R.M, Draper, secont- ed by T.A, Smith, \u201cThat in the «pinion of this Congress it is expedient on all Government contracts (Dominion or Provincial), and in the best interests of the leboring classes as a whole, to insert in every Government contract for any public work made and entered into hereafter, a clause requiring the contractor to pay the working-men engaged upon such work the Union scale, or at least the current rate of wages paid in the locality where such work is being done, at, and during the time such contract is being carried on; That it is necessary owing to the rapid introduction of labor saving machinery which tends to reduce the demand for labor to an enormons extent that a clause be inserted in every Government contract fixing the hours of labor at eight hours per day, this to be the maximtun not to be exceeded.\u201d Delegate Darlington moved anamendment to the resolution that all Government contract work be abolished and that the hours of labor on Government work be eight hours per day or less.Delegate O\u2019Donoghue moved that the words ** Pending the abolition of the existing contract system\u201d be inserted after the word Congress in the first line of the main resolution.The resolution as thus amended adopted, | The resolution relating to immigration was then taken up, and after a short discussion was adopted.The next resointion was as follows : \u201c\u2018Moved hy Frank Hetherell and secouded Ly R.Driscoll, \u201cThat this Congress call the attention of the Provincial Government to the neglect of duty on the part of the Factory Inspector in respect to saw mills in Ottawa and neighborhood and request the Government to insist on the said officer doing his duty.\u201d Delegate MacDonald, of Ottawa, said that the Inspector had been repeatedly memorialized to do his duty, but he failed t do so.The resolution after some discussion was atopted.Delegate Darlington moved and Delegate 8.Metcalfe seconded a resolution to the effect that no person who is in the employ of the Federal or Local Governments of this country shall be eligible to admission to the Congress as a delegate.There were party heelers, he believed, in Congress.He refused to give names.The president decided that the resolution required notice of motion.The resolution was therefore dropped but it will come up again tomorrow.The Congress then aajourned till the afternoon.The Trades and Labor Congress at the afternoon session condemned th: Quebec law, known as the Masters and Servants\u2019 Act, a resolution being passed to this effect.A resolution was also passcd asking the Quebec Legislature to prohibit over time in shoe manufactories,except bylspecial permission of factory inspectors.Another resolution was passed asking the Government to protect union labels.The Quebec Government was also asked to facilitate and render less expensive the incorporation of benefit and labor uniona, The Congress also decided to take into consideration a protest from the French typos of Montreal against the granting of subventions to certain religious institutions was of Montreal, which make a disloyal competition against the printing business, Tnese places were also exempted from taxation.The matter wiil come up to-morrow.Wm.Houston, M.A., principal of the school of pedagogy, delivered an address to the delegates on the question of cducation from a labor standpoint.QUEBEC LEGISLATIVE COMMITTEE.The Quebec Legislative Committee presented the following report: Your Committee beg leave to report that immediately upon the printing of the reports of the proceedings of the last Congress, copies thereof were forwarded to the Provincial Ministers and representatives in the local legislature, and upon the opening of the session a letter was addressed by the Secretary of your Committee to the Hom.the Provincial Prone ier asking for an interview.We regret to have to state that this request was refused.Washington 1s not the only place where the representatives of the people refuse to grant to the people whom they represent a hearing.This unfortunate and rerretable epispde was, later on during the session, remedied by an invitation to the representatives of the Congress to appear before a special committee to whom was referred the amendments to the Quebec Factory Act.Your Committee was well represented at the said meeting, and in the evening was assisted by the Quebec Trades and Labor Council, Still they, after a mecting lasting from 8 p.m.until after midnight, did not succeed in obtaining one single modification or amendment that might be remotely considered as of direct benefit to the workers in shop or factory.Your Committee also desire to state that in justice to the other Provinces of the Dominion, it should be publicly known Dominion immi- ! that in the Province of Quebec there is neither factory inspection nor enforced I regulations concerning these establish- i ments.These facts were made plainly and pain- \"fully apparent in one instance where a ip osecution was entered against a mill \u2018owner re a defective boiler, the rotten- \"ness of the Act allowing the said prosecu- i tion to fall through., \u2019 i Your Conunittee also desire to state i that in the cases of amendments to the city charters of both the cities of Que- | bec and Montreal they aided all in their | power the representatives of the Trades | Councils of both cities, and, although ob- ! tained after all but a negative result, they nevertheless hope that in the near : future the workingmen in the Province of Quebec will obtain all the respectful attention and consideration to which they are justly entitled.Conservatives Not Eager to Subscribe for Election Purposes, The Conservatives of Montreal District were to have met Tuesday afternoon to raise money for election purpwses, principally to be used in connection with the revision of the lists.Only two people turned up, so they adjourned the meeting.Yesterday afternoon a meeting was again called for 2.30, at the Government Buildings, St.Gabriel Street.The attendance was not very large, in fact did not exceed a score of persons.The meeting was presided overby Mr.Frs.Benoit, president of the Conservative Association.Hon.Mr.Onimet was the principal speaker.He spoke of the benefit of protection, and assured his hearers that the Conservative party would stand by that principle whatever the difficulties might be to get all to agree on matters of detail.Ile also spoke of the school question, and owing to his well-known habit of beginning sentences which he does not finish, he did not make his meaning very precise.Those who heard Lim, however, received the impression that he was in favor of going as far as the constitution will allow to satisty the Catholics of Montreal.The Government had not presented a remedial law, because it was not sure that it would be constitutional, The matter was still before the courts.The Order-in-Couneil adopted by the Government In the meanwhile gave satisfaction to the Catholic clergy.Sir John Thompson was working earnestly to assist the Catholics of Manitoba, and the representatives of Quebec in the Cabinet would stand by him and urge him on.Speeches were also made by Senator Drummond and Hon, J.J.Curran, Several members of Parliament present announced that the revision of the lists was progressing favorably.The Association then proceeded to elect its officers with the follawing result : Honorary presidents, Senators Tasse and Drummond; active president, F.Benoit; treasurers, 1).Rolland and Richard White; secretaries, Messrs.Lassalle and Atwater, Sir Donald Smith, Hon.Mr.Quimet, Dr.S.Lachapelle, M.P.; Girouard, M.P.; Wm.Clendinneng, A.Lamarche, D.Masson and O.Cardiual were appointed a committee, whose principal business will be to fry the fat out of our infant industries.They went to work immediately, but adjourned without accomplishing much, STATIONARY ENGINEERS, Their Fifth Annual Convention Opened in Toronto.Toronto, Sept.4.\u2014The Canadian Association of Stationary Engineers gathered in fitth annual convention at Shaftsbury

lunch aiterwards as the guests of the city.The invitation was accepted.President Hunt delivered his annual address which was of a deservedly congratulatory nature.Four lodges had been added in the year.The district deputies had all worked hard.The association was growing and was an educational feature amongst the engineers.There was a worthy desire evinced to make the meetings more enjoyable.Strict examination of candidates for membership was enjoined on all the Jodges.Secretary York\u2019s report showed a large increase in the membership of the association and an appreciable increase in the assets, whilst Treasurer Black's report shows there was a balance on hand of about $300.There were fourteen branches in the Dominion.The rest oi the day was devoted to reading and discussing papers.Club Letcllier.That picnic was again discussed at the Letellier Club last night.A motion was introduced to censure the Patre for its course, but it was proposed in amendment by J.Alfred Pelland, seconded by Abila Bourbonnais, M.P.P., that the Club Letel- lier desires to express its thanks to the editor and proprietor of the Patrie for the services which they have rendered it, and also to the organizers of the demonstration of August 17th last at Park Royal, who were animated by the Dest intentions.The amendment was carried by 20 to 19.Messrs.J.I.Tarte, M.P., and A.G.Bour- bonnais, M.P.P., were clected members of the Club.THE MINING TOWN OF SCOTCH VALLEY, PA.ENGULFED, MINE CAVED IN AND THE TOWN WENT WITII IT.PROBABLY HEAVY LOSS OI AMONG RESIDENTS.LIFE Particulars of the Dreadful Disasicr are as yet Meagre.Lofty, Pa., Sept.5.\u2014The little mining town of Scotch Valley, in Lackawanua County, near this place, was swallowed up to-night in one of the most completo cave-ins ever known in this region.The scene of the disaster is on the eastern slope of Mount Lookout, the score of houses conrposing the hamlet being at the mouth of the shaft of Mount Lookout colliery.The details are as yet fragmentary.It is known, however, that the ouses on either side of the principal streets of the hamlet ave completely swallowed up in the gaping sink-hole, and nothing ean be seen of the other buildings of the town except the rool gables and chimneys.It is impossible to estimate accurately the number of fatalities.Rescuing parties are now exerting every means to release the occupants of the engulfed dwellings.One of the buried houses has taken fire.The cave-in was caused by the giving way of the timber supports in workings of the Mount Lookout colliery which have not beer in operation for about two years and had been neglected in consequence.About five o'clock this afternoon the inhabitants of the hawlets were startled by the rumbling, thunder-like reports which warned them of the falling of tons of rock and debris wuto the deserted caverns of the abandoned mine, many feet beneath them, Report was followed by report and accom- mine , panied by other tremors, and then the village sank out of sight in the gaping cavity.Meauwiile, some fifty miners were imprisoned in the colliery.They had been at work in a new portion of the mine, and their usual means of exit was complæely wiped out by the cave-in.They started up through a tunnel which had been used as an air shaft, but which leads to the surface through a series of steep slopes.Members of the rescuing party ou the surface, failing to cut a passage through the mass of debris which blocked the main entrance,descended the air passage and penetrated the slope were the imprisoned miners were struggling upward.The men were carried to the surface, where a greas crowd of excited, panic-stricken people were waiting them.Up to nine o\u2019clock to-night all the persons who could be found have been taken from the ruins, althouch the full roll of those to be accounted for cannot be prepared until to-morrow.NO SIGNS OR PASSWORDS The C.M.B.A.Grand (Council Decides Against Them.St.John, N.B.,Sept.5\u2014 At the C.M.B.A.Grand Council session this morning, Areh- bishop O\u2019Brien and Bishop Sweeney pail the Convention a visit, and both were warmly welcomed.They made speeches endorsing and wishing all success to the Order.The entire afternoon was taken up in discussing amendments to the constitution and by-laws, and when adjournment for tea was had, not quite one-half of the printed amendments had been considered.Two hours were consumed in discussing the proposal from Toronto to use signs and passwords.It was rejected and a committee is to be appointed by the incoming president to consult with the archbishops and bishops of Canada and report at the next convention, two years hence.This afternoon a committee of sixteen manufacturers and merchants on invitation visited the Board of Trade rooms.The visitors were introduced by their chairman, Mr.Cragg, of Halifax, and President Hatheway and Mayor Robertson, and delivered speeches.The delegation represented from Halifax clear to the Pacific Coast.It was a few minutes after midnight when the evening session of the C.M.B.A.Grand Council closed.Nearly the whole night was consumed in debating amendments to the constitution and by-laws.All the laws proposed by the Halifax branch were rejected.A resolution was passed giving branches power to establish and control within themselves sick benefit funds.A number of Ontario and Quebec delegates are to visit Halifax before returring home.It is expected the convention will close to-morrow night or Friday evening, MARINE

For weeks back there has been talk among the old heads of what they used to do when they played lacrosse so the younger members of the prospective champion club becamo weary and asked these ex- famous

in that Valhalla to which all good athletes doubtless go when they are dead.President T.P, Crowe, ot the Shamrocks.Many years ago when the world was very young, or to be more precise, about seventeen years since, Timothy Patrick Crowe PRESIDENT CROWE, OF THE SIAMTOCURS.was one of the most active members of the Celtic Football and Lacrosse Club, It may have been that the deeds performed by te Celtics formed no small part of the sporting literature of that day, but, unfortunately, to this generation the record of the club is unknown.Get Mr.Crowe aside and if he be in a reminiscent mood jie will tell you how, when he played lacrosse with tite Celtics, lacrosse was lacrosse with a big L.Yes, he will admt the game is fairly woll played now, but you shonld have seen the Celtics play on Fletcher\u2019s Field the day that tliey won the championship of the north.cast corner of St.Lawrence Ward.Mr Crowe is now on the retired list, but he is ove of the most enthusiastic lacrosse men in Montreal.Were it not so, how could he be president of the Shamrock Lacrosss Club of tho club which has held the world\u2019s championship so:ve thirteen times since the game was established in 1866?President Crowe has been a member of the Shamrocks for twelve years but it wag only in 1889 that he began to take an active part in the Council of the Club, He was then clected Vice-President, and wag one of those who brought out the Young team which has presevered in the face of defeat, and has now placed itself at the top of the list, In the Shamrock Baznar of 1892, be which was obtained a larger portion of the funds necessary for the purchase of the new grounds, he was treasurer.In 1890 he became a committeeman, but he dig not take office again until 1893, when he was clected to the directorate of the Shamrock A.A.A.In addition to the presidency to which he was elevated last year.Mr.Crowe is also president of the Senior League, having heen elected to that position at the annual meeting this spring.He is a young man and is deservedly popular with his club.Though of a quiet and unobtrusive manner it is cener- ally observed that in deliberations in which he takes part, he hasa happy faculty of generally having his own way.Skanerock Team for Toronto.The Shamrock Executive meet last evening and chose the following team for the match in Toronto on Saturday : Stinson Dwyer, Moore, Murray, O'Brien, Hinton, Kelly, Neville, McVey, Danaher, Wall Tucker aud Capt.Polan.The team is ile same us that which met the Capitals except that Tansey, whose back was jn.jared, has been replaced by McVey.Tan- sey will accompany the team, however, to give young Mr.McConaghy a chance to recover from his remarkable hallucination, It was decided that the team will remain over in Toronto for Sunday, and will go to Brampton to play the Excelsiors of that town on Monday.The Excelsiors are foemen worthy of the Shamrocks, having held the Provincial championship of the C.L.A.for seme time, and having an unbroken record of wins this season, It was found impossible to accept Que- bee\u2019s invitation to go there on the 15th instant.Double Event on the Beaver Grounds, There will be à double event on the Beaver Grouuds on Saturday afternoon, when the Mechanics play their last game with the Beavers, and the Hibernians meet the Mechanics\u2019 second twelve.Since the Nationals have beaten the White Stars, they are anxious to tackle the Beavers.A game will likely be arranged for next Saturday week.° The Montreal-Capital Match.Saturday's match on the M.A AA.grounds, between Montreal and the Capitals, of Ottawa, should be one of the games of the season.The two clubs ave tied for seeond place, and should the Montreal team win and the Shamrocks chance to have an off day in Toronto, the Loys of the winged wheel will have a chance to tic , the Shamrocks for the leadership, Both teams are in fine condition, the Montrealers being particularly fit.The champions will of course be minus Quinn whose collar bone was broken and this will be a decided weakening for their defence, RUGBY.The Brits Go to Work To-morrow.At 6 o'clock to-morrow morning the Britannia Football Club will commence a season which promises to be the most successful in its history.The semi-annual meeting was held last night in the room which the M.A.A.A.has been in the habit of kindly placing at the Brits\u2019 disposal.The president, Mr.A.McA.Murphy, occupied the chair and about thirty members were in attendance.No less than twenty-five applications for membership were made und approved.The resignation of the club Captain, Mr.Grace was accepted.Mr.Grace is about to enter a course of study at Me- Gill, but he will play with the old club.The vacant captaincy will be filled by the committee.The first practice will be held on the Shamrock grounds at 6 o\u2019clock to-morrow morning.The grounds have been already secured for three mornings a week, and the committee has decided to apply for them for the whole six mornings in the week, so long as the season lasts.The Brits are unusually strong in men this season.The back division which was woefully weak last year will be strengthened by the addition of Mr.V.Barry, the old time crack, who has been living in the west for several years, but who has kept himself in first-class football condition.The forward end also will be stronger than it nas been for years.Things look very bright for the Brits a! last.BASEBALL.Tlie Orioles ave a Cinch Now, New York, Sept.5.\u2014The Orioles broke the season\u2019s record to-day by

Turfman Dave Gideon.Davo Gideon, who has sued Philip Dwy- er, president of the Brooklyn Jockey club, for $50,000 damages for alleged slander, Is a small, quiet, dark eyed man whose face is familiar to all race track habitues.Ho was born in New York city 46 ycars ago and at ono time flgured in politics.Ho was elected assemblyman from the Twelfth NewYork district\u201d in 1883, but soon turned his attention to the turf.Ho formed a partnership with Mr.Daly, and tho colors of Gideon & Daly ; , have since been DAVE GIDEON.worn by a number of great thoroughbreds, including the peerless His Highness, winner of the $75,000 Futurity in 1891, and Ramapo, the first horso home in this year\u2019s Buburban handicap.Gideon does not follow the turf for love of sport or for the purpose of developing tho American thoroughbred.He runs his stable for revenue only, and when he thinks his horses can win ho backs them liberally in the betting ring.He is not much of a turf plunger, but about a year ago, when his Kinglet defeated old Race- land at Monmouth Park, it is said Gidcon collected a cool 550,000 from the hard hit bookmakers.Gideon & Daly havo a magnificent training establishment at Holm- del, N.J., which cost the firm about $350,000, and whero the horses are locked after by the well known trainer, John Hy- land.Gideon knows all thoro is to know aboub running horses and the sport of kings, and his success is largely due to the fact that ho looks after his business with untiring vigilance.His trouble with Mr.Dwyer grew out of Dwyor\u2019s allegod statement that Gideon threw a race not long ago.Lucky Baldwin's Novel Challenge.It is said that E.J.Baldwin will issue 8 novel challenge to W.O\u2019B.Macdonough that is sure to attract considerable attention.The owner of Santa Anita stock farm will offer to match Emperor of Norfolk against Ormonde.The proposition is that each owner shall name a brood mare to be mated to lis stallion, and that the progeny of the union shall raco as o 2-year-old and 3-year-old.Baldwin will wager $5,000 on the result of the match.Mr.Macdonough will doubtless accept the challenge.The $150,000 Or- moude has produced Orme, a greater race horse than Emperor of Norfolk has to his credit, but Baldwin has one of the best brood mares in America in Clara D, who has already given to the turf such well known performers as Santa Ana and Santiago.Emperor of Norfolk is the sire of Lady Bess, Lady Diamond, La Ficsta and sev- mal other good performers.Lady Bess was an unusually good performer.Tho reason, however, which has suggested such a match to Baldwin is the wonderful showing mado by a colt that has yet to face tho starter.Baldwin is after the Futurity with this youngster.Ic is by the Emperor of Norfolk.Our Zimmermans Abroad,

especially, is this true in the Empire State.TFanus located only a few miles from market are, says the memorial, in many, instances, not paying ex.penses\u2014land values are constantly declining and farms, when thrown upon the market, will not bring the cost of the improvements, while bonds and mortgages and even many corporate stocks are at or above par.This abnonmal condition is claimed to result mainly from two causes: First, from the present systeny of tax assessments, land which represents only one-fourth of the wealth of the State, now bearing ten-elevenths of the expenses of the govermment while the vast personal, which represents three.fourths of the taxable property of *the State, bears only nine-elevenths, They ask that a section be added to the Constitution, providing that all property, w¥cther real or personal, shall be taxed at its full market value, except that which is already exempt by law.\u201cThis,\u201d says the document, \u2018would settle in the public mind the system of taxation and put a stop to the present discussion of the Anarchistic single tax fallacy which has done much to unsettle our real estate values.\u201d The memorial continues: *'The second cause in the decline of agricultural proe sperity results from our present system of exorbitant local freight rates, The ac tual cost of transportation on our main lines of railroad is only one mill a mile per ton.The main roads are even ads vertising to bring produce from St.Paul to New York, a distance of nearly 1,500 miles for five cents per hundred pounds, while the same roads are charging from 15 to 20 cents per 100 pounds on distances of ten less than one hundred miles, making a difference of 100 per cent.Our roads are chartered as common Carriers, and as such have no right to make discriminations so unjust to the people.It is evident chat such a system must be ruinous to all local trade, Give the farmers of this State a just system of pro rata freight rates and we Can successfully compete with the farmers of the West; vithout it neither skill or \u20ac-ono- my can save us from ultimate bankruptcy.\u201d C.P.R.TRAIN ATTACKED, Ejected Tramps Opened Fire on the Train Hands, Smith\u2019s Falls, Ont, Sept.5\u2014On Monday night Baggageman Franklin attempted to eject from the mixed train when a short distance south of Smith's Falls, three tramps who were beating their way from Ottawa to Brockville.They resisted and a scuflle ensued.Franklin defended himself with his lantern, which was finally smashed to atows.He succeeded in putting them off, however, and gave tho signal for the train to proceed.The tramps at once pulled revolvers and opened fire upon him, but owing to the darkness did not get good aim, and he escaped uninjured.A number of bullets were afterwards found embedded in the car.Word of the affair was at once sent to Smith's Falls and a party was organized to go in search of the tramps, but no trace of them could be found.OBITUARY, JUDGE MACLEOD, CALGARY, Winnipeg, Sept.5.~Judge MacLeod, of the Northwest Supreme Court, died at Calgary this morning.He was one of the most prominent men of the Canadian Northwest.He was a Lieut.-Colonel of the Militia and was the son of the late Captain J.M.MacLeod, of the 25th Regiment.He was born in Toronto in the year 1836, and spent his early days in the Queen .City.Hc received his education at Upper Canada College, He finished college life at Queens University, Kingston, where he graduated B.A.He was a barrister at law of the Province of Ontario.< THOMAS D.TIMS, QUEBEC, Quebec, Sept.5.\u2014Mr.Thomas D.Tima, an old resident of Quebec, died suddenly at his summer residence at Kingsmers, Chelsea, P.Q., yesterday.Before and since Confederation he had held prominent positions in the civil service.The deceased gentleman was brother of Mr.F.D.Tiws, Deputy Provincial Auditor.Count of Paris no Better, London, September 5.\u2014This evening there was no change for the Letter in the condition of the Comte de Paris according to the bulletins issued from Stowe House.The Duchess of Montpensier andthe Infanta Eulalia of Spain have arrived at Stowe House.A SURGEON'S KNIFE | gives you a feeling of horror and dread.There is no longer necessity fof its use in many diseuscs formerly ro- guarded as incurable without cutticg.Ths Triumph of Conservative Surgery ig well illustrated by the fact that RU PTURE or Breach, is now radi cally cured without the knifcand withaut pain.Clumay, chafing trusses can be thrown away !

those who come to see the exhibits and those who come to see one another.The latter class are in a majority.Those who came to see exhibits found considerable worthy.of attention and that fairly represented the merits of old Missisquoi as a farming country and as a manufacturing centre as well.The stock, of course, was the backbone of the fair, and tuo breeds of cattle were represented by worthy specimens.dhe increasing exhibit of thoroughbred horned stock is noticeable at every fair in the Townships, and no doubt the agri- cultaralists find in that a subject for congratulation.Missisquoi always was a horse country, Where American buyers were always sure of finding just what they wanted for the driving market.During a number of years khe MeKiniey tarifi shut them out from their best market, and carriage horses dropped in price.They are still cheap, but already the trade us picking up and the display of horscflesh at the fair shows there are many good steppers left here yet.In heavy draft horses, such as dciight the heurts of the Scotch farmers ot Huntingdon, the exhibit was poor.The cheese industry is one that had advanced rapidly in the Eustern counties during the last two years.Siuce winning the Dominion gold medal and World's Fair prizes, Township cheese-makers hold their heads rather high, Missisquoi factories have a good exhibit at Bedford.The display is twice as large as it was a few years ago and of a far higher quality.The butter has always been good\u2014so the farmers\u2019 wives claim\u2014and boih dairy and factory make engaged the attention of experts.They pronounced it excellent.In the ladies\u2019 department there was a noticeable falling off in the number of ex hibits, perbaps not in quality.Here were pictures and tapistry, crazy quilts that were not crazy.And sc on through a wide and varied collection of those beautiful but somewhat mysterious articles called fancy work.There was also present just as there has been for years, and as al hope there may be for years to come, a large collection of farmers\u2019 pretty daughters and their beaux, Without them the best county fair in the world would be insipid indeed.The following are the officers of the So- cicty under whose supervision the present fair is being held: President, Charles Weber, Notre Dame des Anges;

I asked.Sharp as needles, sir; ne\u2019er a member of my family ever wore glasses until after sixty.\u201d \u201cWell, you're a long way oft sixty.I want you to look at the opposite house and when you see a lady come out or look out of the window, try if you can recall her face.\u201d \u2018Have I seen her before, sir?\u201d \u201cI can\u2019t tell, I want to Know that.You haven't seen her for many years\u2014 more than twenty, certainly.\u201d Twenty years plays tricks with faces and with memories, sir,\u201d said Mrs, Payne, with a sigh.©] shouldn't think you had changed much, Country air preserves good looks, you know.\u201d Mrs.Payne laughed; no women is too old to like a compliment.She fixed her the house opposite and waited eyes on Mrs.Merton\u2019s appearance.By and ly she seemed to grow tired of watching and glanced round my room and frowned.\u2018What's the matter?\u201d I asked.\u2018The dust, sir; I can\u2019t abide dust.That servant of yours is an idle hussy, I'll be bound.\" .(To be continued.)

STEAMER MIRANDA, STRUCK A ROCK ON GREENLAND'S WEST COAST, THOUGH PATCHED UP SHE FOUND.DERED TWO WEEKS LATER.THE EXCURSIONISTS RESCUED BY A FISHING SCHOONER, Passengers Lose All Their Scientific Instruments Provisions Ran Out, North Sydney, C.B., Sept.5.\u2014 The schooner Rigel, of Gloucester, Mass., Captain G.W.Dixon\u2019 arrived here to-day, having on board the crew and passengers of the steamer Miranda, which left New York July 7, with Dr.F.A.Cook\u2019s Arctic excursion.All the party are well.On August Oth the Miranda struck à rock near Sukkertoppen, west Greenland, and was abandoned in a sinking condition, August 23rd., in Davis Strait, latitude about GI degrees 15 minutes; longitude 58 degrees, 40 minutes.The particulars of the expedition and its disastrous termination are as follows: After repairing the damage sustained by the iceberg collision of July 17th, the Miranda left St.John\u2019s, N.F., on July 20th, and proceeded directly to Greenland.Much ice and fog were unexpectedly encountered off Cape Farewell.At one time the vessel came near being nipped in the floes, the rising of a fog disclosing jce all around.Considerable apprehension was felt by the officers and visions of the fate of the Jeannette and Proteus cxpedi- tions arose among the passengers, as the iron-built Miranda was totally unfit to cope with the terrors of Arctic navigation.But fortunately a thin place in the floes was found and the ship driven through, The south-west coast of Greenland was so blocked with ice that no landing could be made until August 7th, when the expedition reached Sukkertoppen, in latitude £5 degrees, 45 minutes.leaving this port on the morning of the Oth, for Disco, the vessel had proceeded ahout seven miles at full speed when she struck with tremendous force on a hidden reef.Everything loose went flying forward.The steward, Joseph Farrell, was struck by a trunk and slightly injured.A party at breakfast found themselves piled up with dishes and viands at the end of the cabin, Three times the high waves 1lifted the ship and let her down wlth a crash that shook her from end to end.When she floated off great excitement prevailed, as the vessel was soon seen to he settling.The boats were swung off and everything made ready to abandon the steamer.It was found, however, that the main injury was beneath the ballast tanks, which filled so rapidly that the pumps could not control the inflow, But the water-tight bulkhead protected the other compartments, and Eskimo pilots having at length come off in their kayaki, the steamer was gotten safely into harbor.As it was considered unsafe to proceed further with the damaged vessel, the situation of so large a body of excursionists on this inhospitable coast was not encouraging, especially when it was found that the Danish steamer which regularly visits the settlement had been stove in by ice and could not arrive this year, It began to look as if the expedition might have to winter in Greenland, and short rations were served in anticipation of such a catastrophe.It was learned, however, through the Danish Governor, that several American fishing schooners were on the halibut banks near Holsteinborg, 120 miles north.To secure one of these vessels, Dr.Cook, with Messrs.Rogers, Porter and Dunning and four Eskimos, started for the banks in an open boat.After a stormy voyage lasting ten days they found the Rigel, and brought her to the assistance of the people on the disabled steamship and the passengers were transferred to the Rigel.The Miranda then took the Rigel in tow, and left Sukkertoppen August 21, intending to proceed directly to St.John\u2019s, N.F.All went well for two days, but a heavy sea the second night weakened the top of the ballast tank on which an enormous hydrostatic pressure was exerted, and it gave way at 12.30 a.m., August 23.Three blasts of the whistle gave warning to the Rigel to stand by.The night was cold, dark and foggy and the vessels bounded like balls on the billows, Un board the Miranda all was confusion.The firenen leaving the boiler room without orders, cut loose the best lifeboat, which was immediately dashed to pieces against the ship\u2019s side and were only kept in submission at the point of the captain\u2019s revolver.The carpenters tried in vain to stop the leak with blankets and mattresses, and at daylight, as water was invading the coal bunkers and à storm was threatening, the steamer was abandoned, \u2018The crew were taken up by the schooner.It was fortunate that the passengers were already on the Rigel, as a transfer could hardly have been effected under the trying conditions without loss of life.Nothing except the sailors\u2019 bags was saved from the Miranda.The pas- séngers lose all their baggage except the clothing worn when they went on board the relici vessel at Sukkertoppen.Many of them lost extensive scientific instruments and hunting equipments.All the botanical, geological and ethnological collections, ahd all the photographs, probably the finest ever taken in Greenland, went down with the Miranda.Professor Diche, of Kansas University, lost a fine lot of Labrador and Green- Band birds.Prot, Wright, of Toberlin College, was able to make interesting Studies of the glaciers near Sukkertop- pen, but otherwise the expedition was a failure from the scientitic standpoint as it was also from that ot the sportsmen._ The journey home was without other incidents than adverse winds, the inconvenience of close quarters and insuff- cient provisions, Only ten days\u2019 supply for forty men having been placed on the Rigel and the addition of the Miranda's crew made ninety-one persons on hoard this little craft of one hundred and seven tons.The passengers slept in the hold on the top of the galt fish.Gulls and other sea birds constituted the only fresh meat of the party for the past ten days.} Too great credit cannot be given to Captain Dixon and the crew ef the Rigel for their efforts in behalf of those whom they had rescuxd.\u2018(he party, will have a banquet at south Sydney before d'spersing, at which time a handsome testimonial will be presented to Captain Dixon.The lost steamship Miranda was built in 1884 for the St.John and New York trade.She is famous as} the vessel which lost the celebrated, party timber raft off Long Island Sound.Contry TS she has been running to merica and the West Indies, She is said to have been insured for 3 .JAPS ARE FRIGHTENED, They Are Leaving Shanghai as Fast as They Can, Shanghai, Sept.3.\u2014The recent surrender to the T'aotti, outside the settlement limits, by the American consulate of two Japanese, who were recently arrested, accused of being spies, and who had been under the protection of the United States, has created a panic among the Japanese, in this country.\u2018lhelatter believed themselves to be safe under the protection of the United States., and their alarm is increased in view of the report that their two countrymen now in the hands of the Taotti are to be immediately executed.The Chinese authorities when the prisoners were surrendered, pledged themselves not to torture the captives, but to give them a fair trial.All the Japanese in this city, about 700.are making preparations to leave China at the earliest moment possible.COURT ©F QUEEN'S BENCH.Date of the Brown Trial Jockey Guer- in Not Guilty, At the opening of the Queen's Bench ves t riay, Mr.Peers Davidson, counsel for Mrs.Brown in the celubrated case against her husband, Andrew Brown, son of a New York millionnaire, who was fined by Judge Dugas 850 and costs, or three months in default, for neglecting to provide for his wife, asked the Court if it could fix a day for the appeal, made by J.N.Greenshietds, Q.C., on behalf of the defendant, as several witnesses had to be brought from New York.The Judge said he could not name a day, as he would have to go through the list of cases.All appeals would Lo heard after these had been dispensed with.That was the usual order of the Court.Should the list last until September 30th then the Court would adjourn until October 8 or 9, to admit of all the judgessitting in the Court of Appeals.The trial of Thomas Guerin, the jockey accused of breaking into Mr.Dickson\u2019s restaurant at Bel-Air, was then continued.The defence attempted to prove an alibi through the evidence of one Chas.Kerr, farmer, living at Dorval, who deposed that the accused slept in his house the night of the supposed robbery.He went to bed at 9 o'clock and did not go out until 5 o\u2019clock the next morning, when he went to the course to exercise a horse that le was going to ride that day.After four hours deliberation the jury returned into court with a verdict of not guilty against Thomas Guerin, the jockey accused of robbing Mr.Dickson\u2019s restaurant at Bel-Air.The trial of Edward Higgins, charged with picking the pocket of Madame Laberte ou{St.Lawrence Main Street, occupied the time of the court up to five o'clock, when the court adjourned until ten o\u2019clock this morning.For Perfect Fitting Shirts and Collars, Fine Neckwear.go to

Englishman, employed up to January last as book-keeper by the firm of Jas.Anderson &Co., iron merchants, Liverpool, has had an experience it would be well for many others of his countrymen to note before leaving their homes and situations in the old country to come to this side of the Atlantic.In January last Mr.Henderson gave up his situation in Liverpool, worth £150 per year, to come to Montreal to accept a supposed position as book-keeper for a salary of $1,000 per year, On reaching that city he was informed by the manager of the firm from which he expected employment that on account of the depression of husiness in the States, which was then spreading over Canada, they could not give hip the expected position.Henderson searched Montreal for employment, and on his money giving out took to tramping, and after tramping the country somewhat was taken in by a St.Johns family, and secured a job as hod carrier at the Standard Drain Pipe Company\u2019s works.About a month ago that firm reduced their force by 40, Henderson being one of the unfortunates.He is now employed on a canal boat.His pluck, however, is commendable, and an honest man willing to turn his hand to anything will surely succeed sometime, though he is puttiny in hard pan now, and would doubtless be glad were he back in his Liverpool situation, .TELEGRAPHIC NOTES.Ex-Governor Stoneman, of

notice of Acting Mayor Renault yesterday.The patient was at one time a celebrity in the district of Montreal.His name is Anthine Peton and he is now 55 years of age.In the seventies Mr.Peton had a retail dry goods store on St.Catherine Street, East, and he startled the people of the East End by his excentric and profuse advertising.He failed finally and has since been in the business as a clerk, Yesterday he came himself to the City Hall with all the documents needed to secure his own incarceration in the Longue Point Asylum.Among the papers was a certificate irom Dr.Bou- chard stating that the patient has already been in the asylum three or four times during the past five years, The present attack has been on for over g month.The patient is inclined to commit suicide or to set fire to the stores where he is employed.He is continually ponders over his business misfortunes, Sometimes he takes liquor to calm his nerves and it only makes him worse.He has lucid intervals when he realizes his condition prriectly, He said this morning to Ald.Renault: tI would rather go to the asylum than to the penitentiary.You must save me from myself,\u201d Ald.Renault signed the papers and Mr.Peton leit the City Hall with them apparently contented.CANADIAN DUTY ON LUMBER, Belief in the United States that it Will be Repealed, The Washington correspondent of the New York Post says: * No reply has been received from the telegrams sent through the State Department inquiring officially what the Canadian duty on lumber was, but it is believed that the Governor-in- Council will avail himself of his privilege of repealing Canadian duties on Ame:ican lumber, thus allowing Canadian lumber to enter the United States free.\u201d DID NOT CONDEMN THE SCHOOLS.The Report of Such Action by Sanitary Inspector Dore Incorrcet.The report in several of the Montreal papers, including the Herald, that Sanitary nspector Dore had condemned three Catholic schools and the Protestant school on

until they are in active use; and consequently he hus not condemned them, A QUESTION OF JYCRISDICTION.Can the Deputy Recorder Render Judgment When the Recorder is Present.J.F.Dubreuil, Q.C., Tuesday afternoon caused quite a stir among the legal fraternity assembled in the Recorder's Court to hear Deputy Recorder Bourgoin render judgment in the Dooley milk case, and the case of the Queen against Villeneuve, a saloon-keeper.The Deputy Recorder had dismissed the case against Dooley and was about to render his decision in the Villeneuve case when he was interrupted by Mr.Dubreuil, who put in a certiorari against the Deputy Recorder rendering any judgment.\u201cWhat is your objection?\u201d asked Deputy Bourgoin.\u201cMy objection is this,\u201d said Mr.Du- breuil.\u2018According to the Civic Charter, as amended in 1889, you have only jurisdiction so long as the Recorder is absent.The Recorder is here now ; therefore, I claim that your judgment, if you grant one, is ultra virés.\u201d \u2018The Deputy Recorder, however, rendered his judgment all the same, condemning the counsel\u2019s clients to a finc of $30.The issue of the certiorari will be witched with interest.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014ep Charged With Vagrancy.Judge Desnoyers had before him yesterday the seven young men charged by special constable Suthergill with being
