NO.225.CANAL DISCUSSION THE WORK OF THE WATER WAY CONVENTION AT TORONTO.A St.Paul Delegate Wanted the Lake Supcrior And Mississippi Canal Considered.Toronto, Sept.18.\u2014E.V.Smalley, of Minneapolis, was called to the chair when the morning session of the Deep Water Ways Convention was opened.The first business was a paper by Ald.J.Eooch Thompson, of this city, on \u201cDeep Water Ways and who shall pay for them.\u201d Mr.Thompson pointed out that in the seven months of lake navigation, thirty millions of tons of freight are carried on the lakes, or over a fourth of all the freight carried yearly by the railways.Concerning the relative 1m- portance of Canadian and American business on the great lakes Mr.Thompson said Canada had made an expenditure of 850,587,856.With not over 3,G00.000 of her people directly interested, while the United States, with 26 millions bordering on the lakes had spent only $7,081,900 on the improvement of the waterways, which are used on the same ters by vessels of both countries.The percentage of crops in the different countries were about the same proportion ss the populations.Regarding the question of ways and means, Mr.Thompson said that if the city of Manchester, single- handed, could spend $75,000,000 ou a canal, surely it would not be a stupendous undertaking for a dozen cities, at the head of which stands Chicago, to divide between them and the territory behind them, the cost of constructing a twenty-foot waterway to the head of the Lakes.While the only practical route was within Canadian territory, the business of the country is not su\u2019- ficient to justify her undertaking the work alone.In closing, Mr.Thompson gave evidence of the feeling in favor of deep waterways by quoting resvlutions in Congress and in Parliament, and in commercial bodies on both zides of the line, and urged that mistaken ideas of patriotism should nut be allowed to stand'in the way of joint control or construction.Mr.Fowler, Superior City, Wis., complimented Mr.Thompson on his paper.He disugreed with a remark that railways were likely to oppose the project.He could state that it would not meet with the opposition of the railways of the Northwest.He quoted also Sir William Van Horne and Mr.Shaughnessy, of the C.P.R., in support of the cheapening of the transportation by water of grain from the Northwest.The ouly opponents to be expected were the politicians with their table of war and tariffs and other foolishness.O.A.Howland, M.P.P., Toronto, then gave some information as to the present rights of an international character secured in the navigation of the inland waters.With the recommendation of a project for deepening the canals, the convention, he thought, should recommend also the establishment of an International High Court, that would make war between the two couutries for all time, as impossible, as between the various States of the Union.For although the idea of war between the two countries was abhorrent to their feelings, they must admit that it was the business of the Governments to look forward to the possibility of it.Re.R.Dobell, Quebec, said Canada gave the Americans the use of her canals, yet a vessel laden with enal might go from New York up through the T:chelieu River and the Carillon canal to Ottawa, and there load with lumber and return, while a Canadian vessel could not make the same trip because of a fifteen mile canal throngh the State of New York.No doubt the diffieul- ty in question was not at Washington.The only question was whether the United States Government had used its'influence to get the State of New York to give Canada the use of her canals, Messrs.Howland, Dobell, Quebec ; and McGuirk, Davenport, Towa, were appointed to bring in a resolution along the lines suggested by Mr.How- laud.L.E.Cooley, Chicago, was the last speaker of the morning.He gave au address full of interesting and important statistics and facts.Te justified the deepening of the Water Ways from the point of view of domestic traffic, the foreign aspect of the mutter being purely incidental, he urged.He thought the traffic of the west would always have to enter Lake Ontario.but it was a question for consideration in the future whether a canal ai Lockport, N.Y., might not be tound more economical than deuvpening and using the Welland canal.He did not urge this ns an argument against deepening the Welland, as he thought there was room for both projects.The United States might at some time itself construct a canal at Lockport.Toronto, Sept.18.\u2014 At the afternoon session of the Deep Water Ways Convention Mr.David Blain, Toronto, addressed the Convention on the obstructions to navigation on, the St.Lawrence.He strongly favored their removal so that vessels could go down the river without using the locks at all.Of the 175 miles hetween Montreal and Kingston, 110 miles afforded 30 feet of water.If the St.Lawrence ob- strugtions were removed vessels could go down at 20 miles an hour.Mr.Fiower, of Superior, asked Mr.Cooley if there was any other route that would give the double channel spoken of by Mr.Blain at a like expense.Mr.Cooley replied that there was not any way to the sea so convenient or so cheap as the St.Lawrence.In reply to other \u2018questions, he said that one might wake the 45 foot lift at Lachine in one lift.Everything on the St.Lawrence above the Lachine and Soulanges canal would be needed to allow access to the Chumplain canal.Mr.James Suydam, St.Paul, told the Convention he came trom the geographical centre of the North American continent, and he wanted the twin cities of the West to Le made the hydrographical centre of the continent.It was with this ambition that they were here.The Lake Superior and Mississippi canal ought to be considered, fot this was the name of the youngest of all the canals, He concluded by asking that the observations made by Congressman McCleary to Congregs with regard to the canal be printed in the proceedings of the convention, This was consented to., Mr.John Brown, Toronto, asked what interest to the people of Manitoba and the Northwest this canal had or what connection it had with the project of deepening the water ways of the St.Lawrence.Mr.Suydam thought it had a great conti- rental interest, and that it was aa apropos to the object ot the Convention as any of the other of the canals which had been discussed; Mr.Flower, Superior, Wis., pointed out that all these canals had an interest in connection with the greater subject just as the branch lines, feeders and spurs of a railway were important to its promoters.There were other canals than these which had been mentioned.There was the deepening of the Red River, and to give Winnipeg a canal by way of Rainy Lake to Luke Superior.They all, he took it, had a direct bearing upon the question of deep waterways, eer Taylor, of Winnipeg, endorsed - brown\u2019s objection and Mr, Suydam re- plied that the Lake Superior and Mississippi canal would carry the produce of Manitoba and the Northwest to the ocean by way of the Mississippi, althongh that might not Le palatable to the people down this way.The iollowing Committee on permanent organization was appointed : James Suy- dam, St.Paul; L.B.Keck, Cinciunati; A, P.McGitrk, Davenport, Ia; L.E.Cooley, Chicago; O.A.Howland, M.P.P., Toronto; Jas.Uminniee, Port Arthur;

and there were also present : Messrs.J.A.Cuntlie, J.Forrance, KE.Judge, J.Baird, W.Cun- nigham, Ÿ.J.Druminond, F.J.Hort, D.Robertson, J.D.Rolland, C.F.Smith and A.A.Thibaudeau.The following report was submitted: The Classification Committee of the Association of General Freight Agents had replied to Council\u2019s suggestion that trunks containing commercial traveller's samples should be carried as ordinary first class freight instead of double rutes as at present.He could not see wky any discrimiuation should be made in the matter of ratimg of merchandise in trunks shipped by commercial travellers or tho general public, but in order to meet the views of the Board us near as possible it had decided to make nserchandise in trunks one and one-half first-class rate in place of double fares as at present.The Marine Underwriters\u2019 Association have, by a resolution, requested the Coun- cil to cause an investigation to be held into the grounding of the 8S.Hamilton at Contrecœur on the 6th inst.The Council considered that the matter was one for the Harbor Comunissioners, and resolved to ask the Commissioners to hold an investigation.The Council also appointed a Committee to see whether it might not be well for the Port Warden to take cognisance of the depth of water in the river as a guide to what depth vessels should be loaded.The Committee is as follows Messrs Cantlie, Drummond, Hart, Robertson, and Rolland.The promoters of a proposed Canadian Exhibition to be held at Sydney, New South Wales, addressed the Council in regard to their project and stated that they were in commuaication with the Dominion Government in regard to the matter.The Council expressed its willingness to assist in promoting an exhibition in any possible way.The Department of Tradeand Commerce, Ottawa, had sent four sets of tarifs of dif- feront nations as published up to date and and expressed the desire of the Government that the information contained in these tariffs should be at the disposal of all exporters and importers awd therefore that they be in kept some place casy of access lp all members of the Board of Trade.The Council ordered that the same be bound and placed in the reading room.It consists of the tariffs of ninety-three countries, printed in English, and promises to be complete and interest- mg.fi was resolved that the quarterly meeting should Le held ou the day appointed by the Act, which is the first Tuesday in October, Lhe Board having suffered annoyance by the congregating of loufers about the St.Nicholas Street entrance to the building it was resolved to have two of its employees made special constables, one to Le on duty in the day time and the other at night.\u201cFRENCH MARY'S\u201d LICENSE.IT WAS GRANTED ON THE RECOM MENDATION OF CHIEF HUGIES.Chief Chevalier Says it is Hard to Cons viet, Because They Have an Hotel License.The Herald\u2019s exposure of the Comuis- sioners Street dives has caused much favorable comment.Chief Hughes was asked yesterday if it was not the duty of his men to report the open sale of llquor such as described in the Herald.He said : \u2018\u2018No, it is not, because \u2018the houses you complain of are hotels.\u201d .\u201cIs \u2018French Marys\u2019 an hotel?\u201d \u201cYes.They have an hotel license and are therefore eutitled to sell liquor with meals.\u201d It will Le reniemhered that.the Herald representative declared In his-story that no meals were sold, but that dezens of people walked into the dive and bought drinks.It might also be mentioned that this place, which is allowed an \u2018\u2018hotel\u201d license, is simply a cellar-\u2014and a bad one at that.Chief Chevalier, of the Inland Revenue, was calied upou and asked what steps he intended to take in the matter.Ile said: \u201cIt is hard to know just what to do.We have lately had two cases against this place and we have lost both of them.I sent two men down there, and they swesr that they bought intoxicating liquor, Then the proprietor produces per- baps a dozen or more witnesses, who swear that they saw the two men.and that they did nov buy anything.The case is dismissed and the Government has to pay the costs.You will thus see that it is extremely difficult to get a ron- viction.\u201d Major E.L.Bond, of the Citizens League, congratulated the Herald ou taking up this matter.He said that the League has been fighting this one particular place for upwards of three years.When they last applied for an hotel license he wrote Chief Chevalier, who placed the matter before the Commissioners.He, Major Bond, afterwards received a letter stating that the license was granted on the recommendation of Chief Hughes.WINTER CARNIVAL FOR OTTAWA.Ottawa, Sept.18.\u2014A meeting of the Comittee which was appointed last year to consider the question ot holding a winter Carnival here, and which adjourned until September, this year, wus held to-night in the Russell House.On motion of .Col.son, the Committee appointed a Canvassing Committee to collect subscriptions, and then adjourned until the 9th of October.By that time it will be seen if encugh tunds can be raised to go on with the afair.About $5,000 will be required.- CONFERENCE ELECTIONS REY.DR.CARMAN IS STILL SUPERINTENDENT, Chief Offices in the Methodist Chnrch Filled.(Special to The Herald) Lodnon, Ont, Sept.18.\u2014The proceedings of the conference this morning excited more genuine interest than had been heretofore displayed at any session of the General Conference of the Methodist Church.The main feature of to-day was the election of the Conference officers for the incoming Quadrenniun: There was practically no contest for the chief office, that of the General Superintendent ; it being generally uuderstood that Rev.Dr.Carman would be re-elected.This was the result.le receiving 166 votes, out of about 200 on the first baila, Rev.Dr.Briggs was re-elected Steward of the Western Section Book Department.Rev.A.C.Courtice, late of the Dominion Square Church, Moutreal, was elected Editor of the Christian Guardian.Rev, Dr.Withrow was re-elected editor of the Canadian Magazine and 8.83.periodicals.Rev.Dr.Sutherland was re-clected Missionary Secretary, and Flon.J.C.Aikens and Rev.Dr.Sutherland were chosen lay and clerical treasurer of the Missionary Society.Rev.Dr.Potts was of Education, There was quite a struggle for the editorship of the Christian Guardian, the bresent editors, Rev.Dr.Dewart and rev.A.C.Courtice, being the chiefs in the field.The first ballot revealed 83 for the former and 89 for the latter.Dr.Annis received 14, Dr.Rose 11, Dr.Ryckman 5 and nine others one each, As 106 were necessary to a choice, a second ballot was ordered, which resulted in Dr, Dewart receiving 84, Rev.Dr.Courtice 123, Rev.Dr.Annis 4.Mr.Courtice was declared elected and was called to make a speech which he did briefly, in the course thereot paying a high compliment to Dr.Dewart.Two hundred and five votes were cast for the editorship of the Canadian Magazine and Sabbath School Periodicals, and of this number, Rev.Dr.Withrow received 192, a compliment which he acknowledged in a neat speech.The election for the editor for the Wesleyan and Eastern Book Steward was deferred.Out of the 205 votes cast for Missionary secretary, Rev.Dr.Sutherland received 139 and was declated elected on the first ballot, retuming thanks briefly, The election of treasurers, lay and, re-elected Secretary Clerical, of the Missionary Society, the ballot being taken simultaneously, resulted in the re-clection of Hon.J.C.Aitkens and Rev.Dr.Sutherland, the vote being practically unanimously.The calling of hallots for secretary of Education, was a monotonous iteration cf \u201cPotts,\u201d the reverend doctor of that name having what was practically a une animous vote, The Itinerancy Committee have provide ed for the appointment of a Transfer Committee to meet quadrennially during the general conference, interim transfers to be made by the General Superintendent through the presidents of the conferences concerned, Among other recommendations contained in the long report of the Education Committee, were the following: That the Conference take no action on the motion by Rev.J.Elliott, recommending that the General Conference have the veto power in the matter of all appointments to the staff of all the connexional colleges; that section 270, of the Discipline be amended to read: The management of the society shall be vested in a general secretary of education and two general treasurers, together with a Board of Management, to be appointed by the General Conference, one of whom shall be the general superintendent and all expenditure of funds of the society must be made by resolution of the Board of Management, unless ordered by discipline or by special direction of the General Conference.A third recommendation is that no new educational institution shall be initiated by any of the church courts or boards without the consent of the General Conference, or during the period between such; sessions of that Conference, without the consent of the General Conference Special Committee, Another recommendation is that section 274 of the Discipline be repealed and the following be substituted: \u201cThat there shall also be formed, in connection with each Sabbath School, a branch oi the educational society to further the interests of that society and a special collection for the educational funds shall be taken up in each Sabbath School annually on a Sunday to be appointed by the superintendent of the circuit in connection with the superintendent of the Sabbath School.\u201d The sub-committe appointed to consider the matter of assessments of circuits and subscriptions of Ministers, recommended that every Minister be assessed 3 per cent.of his salary, the minimum subscription to be $15 per annum, and that circuits be assessed for five per lent.of the amount of the salary and connectional funds received by them.The Western Conference delerations have considered the comprehensive report of.the superannuation fund commission and the recommendations of the committee ap- rointed to deal with the same.The report of the fund for the quadrennium shows the amount of invested fund to be $206,038, an increase of $29,- 535.The investments on July 31st last wer: : Mortgages, $51,660; stocks, $8,- 739; Missiorary Society, $58,750; hook room, $39,300; General Conference, $12, 573; Albert College, $2,500; Hope Road bond, $240; commutation, $2,523; advances, $1,050; bank and cash, $27,838; duc by annual fund, $844.Total, $206,- 038.The total increase in receipts for the cuadrennium from the various sources werc as followsé From circuits $5,321 ; from Ministers, $1,204; from book room, $700; from interest, $2,156.Claims paid in 1890 to Ministers\u2019 widows and children amounted to $77,544; in 1801, to $79,393; in 1892, to $81, 668; in 1893, to $81,037 and 1804, $853, 664, the last figures being an increase over 1890 of $8,119.The total increase of receipts over claims was $1,262.The amounts received as legacies during the quadrennium reached a total of $20,397.All claims have been paid fn full.In making full payment, the balance on = .hand at the beginning of the year, amounting to $1,710 has been exhausted and an indebtedness incurred of $844.The income is in excess of last year's by only $142.Although the intercsts received from investments is £635 more, the receipts from ministerial subscriptions arc $3500 and from circuits $76 less than the former year.The capital account has been increased by $2,200 from Ministerial subscriptions and $1,246 from legacies.Since the books were closed on July 31st, delayed remittances amounting to $1,611 have been received, which more than balances the reported deficiency.The principal sources of income for the year were : [From Districts, $54,783; from Ministers subscriptions, $11,448; interest, $10.000.The principal expenditure was upon allowances to the 204 Ministers, 1,001 widows and 82 children, amounting to $83,664.The report was adopted.Th= oniy business of the Methodist Conference this afternoon was the reception of fraternal delegates from the Presbyterian General Assembly, the Dominion Alliance and the Women\u2019s Christian Temperance Union, the afternoon session being called specially for that purpose., WOODS STRIKES HARD.AND GROSEIITS BACK WITH MUCK FORTE, The Latter Says it is Not The Attorneys General but tlic Holmes Pesple who Take Action.The following paragraph appeared in the evening papers yesterday The Attorney-General has taken action against the Dominion Burglary Guarantee Company for violation of their charter.The capital of the company was to be $40,000 and a call of 10 p.c.was to be made within twelve months.It is alleged that the capital has been paid, but that the call has not Leen made.Mr.John Baxter Wood is the complainant.Mr.C.Geoffrion is represent- mg the Attorney-General.The action is taken under Article 797 C.P., and a deposit of $200 has been made.Mr.John A.Grose, the Manager of the Dominion Burglary Guarantee Company» was called upon by a Herald representative, and asked if he had anything to say about the matter.\u201cWhat matter?\u201d he replied, and he was then handed a paper containing the above.For some moments Le read, and then looking up with surprise, said : *\u2018\u201c That is the first I have heard of it, but I suppose, seeing that you bave published it, it must be true that the action has been taken.Suppose you wait until the writ has been served on me, then I shall be better able to talk \u201d At this moment, a bailiff put in an appearance, and handed the talked of document to Mr.Grose.After he had read it, he said : \u201cWhy, this action is not taken by the Attorney General; vou can see that for yourself.It is taken by John Baxter Wood, the vice-president and manager of the Holmes Electrio Protection Company, a man who at this moment stands in licted by the grand jury on a charge of having conspired with others to ruin my business and açamst whom I have a civil action for &30,000 diumages.This action for damages will be tiled before n jury of commercial men sometime next month.You will then see why Wood and the Holmes Company are so anxious to secure the cance:lition of the charter of the Dominion Burglary Guarantee Company.The fact is, that our charter does state, that an additional call of 10 per cent.should be made within one year of the first meeting of sharcholders.- But wheu the time arrived otr company having more money than they needed and acting upon the advice of our counsel in Ottawa and Montreal, decided to issue a call of 24 per cent., only instead of ten, \u201c1 was advised about ten days ago that a firm of lawyers in Toronto had also on Le- half of those people applied to have our charter cancelled.\u201cBut I may say right here that there is no danger of the charter of this company being upset much as it would please John Baxter Wood.Our company is prosperous; doing, in fact, better than I had antici pated and the electric department is making such headway that we have been compelled to engage a number of extra men during the last few days.During the past two months we huve made contracts for the installation of our Watkins system of automatic fire alarms in sixteen of the largest warchouses in Montreal, and we are in this business to stay.It is a case of the survival of the fittest between this Company and the Holmes.I am not worrying much as to which will win.\u201d Irish Protestant Association, The first meeting of the Irish Protestan Association for the fall was held in the Y.M.C.A.last night.S.H.Ward pre- sidled, and several new menibers were enrolled.The secretary submitted a design for an Association badge, which was accepted.A wreath of shamrocks and maple- lezves surrounds a harp entwined with shamrocks and surmounted by a crown.Below is the title, \u201cIrish Protestant Association of Canada.\u201d A discussion ensued as to the best means of bringing the Association under the notice of the Irish Protestants of the city.It was decided to inaugurate the season\u2019s work by a public lecture, and to have a series of concerts, entertaint ments and lectures during the winter.The meeting then adjourned until the third Tuesday in October.Jealousy Was the Canxe, Hamilton, Ont.,Sept.18\u2014Mrs A.Strouds wife of Alfred Stroud, hide dealer, went into Mrs.Oxleys, fancy goods store, on York Street, this afternoon, and pulling out a revolver fired two shots through an inside glass door at Mrs Oxleys.Neither shot took effect.Jealousy is supposed to have been the cause.General Wolfe's Sword, Toronto, Sept.18.\u2014The Evening Tels.gram\u2019s special London cable says: \u201cThe authorities at the Admiralty office have ro- ceived a letter from an officer who served under Col.Dunn, in which the writer expresses doubt as to the genuineness of the sword which Hen.J.C.Patterson, Canadian Minister of Militia, bought, believing it to have belonged to Gen.Wolfe.The writer asserts that it is impossible that the sword can have lain ninety years in the carth without rusting awny.\u2018Cattle Washed Overboard, Bristol, Sept.18.\u2014The British steamer Exeter City, Captain Bartlett, bas arrived here from New York, and reports when in latitude 47, 48 north, longitude 41, 42 west, she experienced a severe hurricane, which continued for thirty hours.The steamer had on board 175 head of cattle, 91 of which were lost, the mujority being washed over- bourd Ly the heavy scas which swept over the vessel.- MONTREAL, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1894.THE MINISTERIAL POLITICAL TOUR IN THE WEST ABANDONED, INCIDENTALLY THERE ARE FRESH CABINET TROUBLES.Sir John Thompson Will Mave To Shorten Mis Visit To Antigonish.{Special to the Herald.) Ottawa, Sept.18.\u2014The abandonment by the Government of the political tour which was arranged for through Manitoba, the Northwest and British Columbia, is the chief topic tulked of in political and official circles here to-night, It isanother iltustra- tion added to the many that the Govera- ment cannot agree about doing anything which concerns any part of the Dominion outside the Maritime Provinces.When they have got to quarrel over the advisability of their doing something to defend the positions which they hold and the policy tu which they have subscribed people will cense to wonder why itis that they ure afraid to issue writs for the vacant constituencies or fill the publie positions which have heen vacant ior years past.As à result of the row it is said thay Sir John Thompson will return home sooner than was expected to endeavor to heal the breach.But Sir Hibbert Tupper has no fear of the Premier.The result of the feud over the French treaty showed this, Mr.Ouimet is said to be equally rebellious in the case.Indeed he is accused of the whole trouble.It was his refusal to go that made the Minister ot Marine ask the Cabinet if he was to be a talking machine for all of them.The West was not his district and Mr, Daly onglit to look after it himself or som: one be appointed who could do so.The situation was such that the Premier would have to be responsible for it biwse If, This then is how the First Minister are being attended to in his absence.If Mr.Foster was well he might be persuaded to face the music.Mr.Haggart might also go if Dr.Montague was able to accompany him, but the doctor is still confined to his room.Meantime Mr.Daly will have either to attend to the meetings he has arranged for or order them to he cancelled.Controller Wood, of the Inland Revenue Departinent, returned here to-day from his visit to the grape-growing districts of Essex.He was accompanied on his trip by Mr.Geraldi, the Assistant Commissioner of the Department.Itis understood that the Controller is strongly impressed with the importance of the native wine industry, and will make a report on the same to the Government, CRICKETERS SNUBBED.Captain Henry, of Halifax, in Bad Odor With His Team.Halifax, N.S., Sept, 18.\u2014A litter feeling prevails in Halifax over the treatment of the Maritime cricketers who played in Toronto last week.W.A.Henry, son of the late Supreme Court Judge Henry, is one of the best crieketers in Eastern Canada and has played in the international matches in the United States and England several years.This year he was dropped.Then he organized a Maritime team to go to To- ronio and play the Rosedules.Mr.Henry is a \u201cWard McAllister,\u201d of Halifax.Certain Toronto citizens subscribed to give a supper to the Maritime cricketers and memlers of the International tcam.The invitation was given to Mr.Henry, but, while intended to include the whole team, it was only communicated to the six of the eleven members who belong to \u201c\u2018the 400\u201d, Thoothers were completely snubbed.The story when published to-day created a big sensation and Henry's social snobbishness universally denounced.The the orders of was insulted members of the team have entered into an agreement never again to play in any match in which Henry plays.The result of the row will probably be to drive Ieary out of the Wanderers Club.PERSONAL.Hon.A.R.Angers, Ottawa, is at the Hall.Dr.E.A.MeGannon and R.T.Bawie, Brockville are at the Queen's.Hon.¥.H.Branson, and Miss Bronson, Ottawa, are at the Queen\u2019s.Joshua Peters, General Manager of the Record Iron Works, of Moncton, N.B., is in the city.Charles Thackeray, contractor for the new incinerator, is in New York tendering for four incinerators, which he stands a first-class chance of being awarded.F.B.McNamee, the successful contractor for the dredging in the Lachine Canal, arrived from Ottawa by the G.T.R.last evening.He is highly elated at his success in being awarded the contract in spite of vigorous opposition from Solicitor General J.J.Curran and D.Girouard, M.D.for Jacques Cartier County.Ald.Nolan arrived last evening from a week's visit to New York, Washington and other cities.He was looking in the best of health.Going on With the Suit.New York, Sept.18.-The Commercial Advertiser says that the rumor to the effect that Mrs.WK.Vanderbilt intends to take up her abode in her marblo mansion at Newport, has been confirmed.She will, it 1s said, live there for one ycar, and then, suit.The Shrine of The Miracles.Next Saturd&y's issue of the Herald will contain a full description of the \u2018\u2018Shrine of the Miracles,\u201d at St.Anne de Beau- pre.The history of the shrine with the details of the first miracles, and a sketch of the town itself, will be given, and B the whole profusely illustrated with fine hglf-tone pictures of all that is quaint and curious at this Modern Mecca.This uniquelittle place has no parallel in America, and should be very interesting to read about.Next Saturday\u2019s Herald under the law of that State, will begin the HEAPS OF TROUBLE T | Belleville, in his list.NEWS FROM QTEBES.Passenger

Gossip From Turfland \u2014General Sporting News, The grand farewell boxing benefit in the Stanley Rink last evening, tendered to George Glover, the pugilist, previous to his departure for England to tight Alf.Suffolk, came to an untimely end, owing to the unwonted activity of the police, who for once actually wished to see a permit.A good sized crowd of lovers of the manly art were present.They had witnessed a clever set-to between two light-weights under the titles of James Corbett and Charley Mitchell, in which honors were even.Glover then announced that Patsy Hogan and an unknown would spar for a gold medal and the two men amid loud applause tripped on to the stage as gay as two year old colts.No time was lost in preliminary quibbles and the spectators were treated to a clever bit of boxing in the first round.All present settled down to enjoy a fistic treat when the ponderous form of Capt.Charbonneau of No.6 Police station appeared.He was backed by a posse of his men who marched on the platform like warriors bold.\u201cHave you a permit ?\u201d sternly asked this alert representative of the Very, Very Finest.Glover is evidently not a gambler as instead of saying \u2018\u2018yes\u201d and ordering them out of the Hall as our well known gamblers would have done, he frankly admitted his inability to produce the required docament.\u201cThen\u201d, said Charbonneau, \u2018\u2018this show must closed up at once.\u201d Glover notified the audience and apologized to his patrons for his not being able to carry out the programme.The crowd hissed the police and then retired.Of course Charbonneau was strictly right in thus discharging his duties, though his sudden awakening was a distinct surprise to all present.Tho bouts were conducted in a most orderly manner, and compared with some entertainments which have taken place at No.6, the proceedings were as harmless as those of a Sunday School piz- nic.Young Griffo had a Cinch.Coney Island, Sept.17.\u2014At the Seaside A.C.to-night there was a fair attendance.The first bout was between Nick Dunn, of Australia, and Jim Batler, of Brooklyn, eight rounds at 150 pounds.The police stopped the first contest in the second round.Dominick McCaffrey awarded the bout to Dunn.John Gorman vs.Jack Skelly, 125 pounds, eight rounds, was next called.The fight was stopped by the police in the seventh round and the award given to Skelly.Young Griffo vs, Eddie Loeber, at catch weights, six rounds, was the third event.This was advertised to be the bout of the night.Griffo simply knocked Loeber all over the ring and there were cries of \u201cTake him away.\u201d Ib was a farce and provoked much amusement.Griffo hammered his opponent unmercifully m his own corner for a time, but wound up with merciful treatinent to the badly beaten man.Griffo won and this ended the fight.Kid Lavigne vs.Jerry Marshall, at 126 pounds, came next.It was a ten-round bout and ended in a clinch, The referee gavo

with a catch as-cateh-can wrestling match.Murphy won.The main event was an eight- round contest between Billy Woods, of Denver, and Henry Baker, of Chicago.The two men weighed 170 pounds each.The referee stopped the fight at the end of the seventh round.The wind-up of the evening was between Joe Choynski, of California, and Mike Boden, the \u2018Trial Horse.\u201d Choynski won.LACROSSE.The Montrealers and Shamrocks.The twilight is now creeping over the lacrosse season of 1894, and the veteran organizations of this city have now but the satisfaction of watching its shadows.That the close of the senior league s\u2018ijes is going to be made memorable by a magnificent struggle he.tween the Shamrocks and Montrealers would seem beyond any doubt as both teas are preparing with vigor and

was but one stake on the card, and only three of the eight down to start went to the post.Nanki Pooh was an odds-on favorite, with l'inge a strong second choice, and that was the way they finished.Dau.gannon was heavily backed in the first race to get out of the maiden class, but again he quit, and Hartford won in the commonest kind of à gallop.He ran absolutely unbacked by his new

purse of $3,000 at the same distance as Saturday\u2019s dead heat, one wile and a furlong, but with ten poundsless in the saddle.Byron McClelland, when spoken to about the race by the executive of the Brooklyn Jockey Club, readily agreed to run his colt, and when William Lakeland, who trains Domino for the Messrs.Keene, was approached he was willing to start Domino provided his employers\u2019 consent could be obtained.Foxhall Keene was at the track in the afternoon, and he put an end to the negotiations by declining to entertain any proposition calling for a race this week.\u201cDomino wasn\u2019t at his best on Saturday, and we couldn\u2019s think of runuing him so soon.At Morris Park or later on would be all right.You must remember that Domino fas had several hard races of late, and he will get a short rest, and should Le al] the better for it.\u201d There is, therefore, a prospect of the great rivals coming together again during the Morris Park meeting, Trotting and Running at Hamilton, Hamilton, Ont, Sept.18.\u2014The fall three day meeting of the Hamilton Trotting and Pacing Association at James half mile track opened this afternoon with fair weather and a good

Great Jum per Mooney Will Visit ontreal, The latest mail from Ireland Lrings details of the greatest broad jump accomplished since 1885.The hero of the ocea- sion is John J, Mooney, Xavier A.A., New York, and the scene of his triumph over existing figures was Mitchelstown, Ireland, where a big tournament took place on Sept.5.Mooney had previously announced his intention of making a supreme effort to break the record at the meeting if weather and other conditions were favorable.He succeeded so well that his jump measured 23 feet 8 inches.The best recorded performance up to then was 93 64 inches Ly C.B.Fry of Oxford and C.S.Reber of Detroit.Both these celebrities jumped froma wooden joice set in the turf at the take.off end of the jump, but Mooney is reported to have jumped from the natural sod.The Dublin Sport of Sept.8 refers to the event as follows : \u201cThe distance given is 1} inches better than the world\u2019s record, held jointly by C.B.Fry of Oxford and Reber of America; bot being, as [ understand, from grass to grass, and not with a board take-off, the merit is all the greater.Even if it be proved that Mooney was not assisted by uny fall in the ground, wind, or otherwise, and that the distance is correct, it will be more or less a matter of chance whether it would be universally accepted.At present the manner of reckoning the Irish records is most confusing.If a record is done under the G.A.À.laws the I.A.A.A.does not recognize it, and vice versa.Now, the Michelstown meeting was held under the former code, and if Mooney\u2019s performance is accepted by the Gaelic Association it will stand as a record undes that body, while the previous best of the LA.A.A.will be the same as cheretofore.It cortainly is hard on the competitor that such an unsatisfactory state of thingsshould exist, and the soonét some arrangement is come to the better.Mooney\u2019s jump will recall to many minds the much disputed record of Jahn Purcell, who was said to have covered 23 feet 114 inches at the Freeman\u2019s Jeurnal sports in 1886.Censiderable controversy arose over the matter, and though the record was disallowed the decision was not generally acquiesced in.\u201d Mooney is now aboard the Umbria on his way to this country.In addition to his yard dash from scratch and the high hurdle race from 8 yards behind.He wound up the day by running second, from scratch, in the 22) yard toa man in receipt of 15 yards start.Rooney is due in New York on Saturday, and his entry has been forwarded for the Canadian championships, which will take place a week later.is friends are confident that he will while in Montreal prove his title to the broad-jump record at the Dominion games, and also show form to justify the time returned for the 100 yard run at the recent presentation games in the South ot Ireland, when he received credit for running within two feet of the world\u2019s record of 9 4-5 seconds, The N.Y.A's.Anticipation, New York, Sept.18.\u2014The Athletic Committee of the New York Athletic Club anticipate that some great performances will take place Saturday at Travers Island when it is probable that a fast track will enable many of the wearers of the Mercury foot tu demolish records.Tommy Lee, it is confidently expected, will make a great bid for the 300 yardsrecord of 31 2-5s, now held by L.E.Myers.Norinan T.Leslie.the University of Pennsylvania\u2019s high jumper, has entered for the high jump, and is anxious for another try to capture some of the laurels which Sweeney has hitherto obtained so easily.The two champion events, the ten mile run and the two mile steeplechase, have received good entries, and a great race is expected in the latter event between li.Hjertsberg, the old time champion at this event, who was inviucible in his day, and George W.Orton, of the N.Y.A.C., the present champion.The Winged \u201c\u201c@\u201d In Line.Quebec, Sept.18&\u2014The Q.A.A.A.'s application for membership of the Amateur Athletic Association of Canada has been favorably received.Messrs W.J.Ray, Arthur Picard, and ¥.M.MacNaughton were appointed delegates to the great championship meet, which takes place in Montreal on the 29th inst., and it was decided to send three or four competitors to uphold the colors of the Association on that date.ROWING and SAILING.An Adventurous Canadian Canoeist.St.Louis,

assaulted) by Constable Grey on the 17th of August.A letter was read the constable, stating that on that day named he went into Merrigan\u2019s saloon for a drink.He had not been there long before Merrigan called him an \u201cOrange bastard,\u201d an epithet which he considered to be an Ald.from insult, Chief Hughes explained that Grey was the letier was then not on duty and not in uniform on day named, and the tabled.Ald.McBride remarked that it would be Better for policemen not to go Into saloons at all whether on duty or not.The letter was referred to the City Attomey.From Capt.Gauthier, of No.13 Station, was received a communication stat.\u2019 ing that the light supplied by the St.Jean Baptiste Electric Light Company to that station was very unsatisiactory.It frequently went out, leaving the station: in darkness for some time.A similar complaint was received from No.14 Station.The matter was referred to the City Attorney, as no member of the committee knew whether there was a contract between the city and the company.The gentlemen interested \u2018in the Gospel Mission Waggon complained that they had been told by some policemen that they had no right to hold open air preaching meetings at the wharf.Chief Hughes stated that there was a by-law against preaching in the open air, and Ald.Penny undertook to interview the Mayor on the subject.The residents on Mance Street made still another representation to the committee in reference to the cab stand on the corner of that street and Sherbrooke.They want it removed.Ald.Penny and the Chief wire asked to look after it.A letter from the Royal Electric Lizht Com» pany in reference to the lighting of the police stations was referred to à sub- conunittee.Next came two important letters from the Citizens\u2019 League.The first called the attention of the committee to the fact that a certain house on St.Dominique Street was a house of ill-fame, and that several persons residing in the street had complained about it.The league requested the committee to close the house and expel the women who were the proprietresses of it.Ald.Jacques\u2014''Can we legally expel people from the city?If we can't, I don\u2019t see why we should waste time discussing the matter.\u201d Ald, McBride\u2014'*We can have the house closed.\u201d Ald.Robert, who had just come in-ttIt is a difficult question.\u201d The letter was sent to the City Attorney.} The second communication stated that the league had notified Chief Hughes of the fact that gambling was going on in Parc Royal and Schmer Park; and that while the gamblers were forced to suspend operations in the former they were allowed to continue to ply their nefarious calling in Sohmer Park.Captain McMahon anl other policemen were present on a certain day\u2014August 14th\u2014when the pam.bling was going on.The Chief and Sub- Chief Keogh had been requested to stop the gambling, but they had not done so.The league intimated \u2018that if neither the Chief nor the Police Committee would put down gambling in Sohmer Park they would take steps themselves to put it down.They thought it only right, however, to notify the committee of.their , decision.This letter contained a declaration made by one of the secretaries of the ledgue, Mr.George Richardson, before a notary, to the effect that he had seen He could not help thrashing him.\u2019 gambling going on in Sohmer Park on the day in question.Ald, Robert laughed several times while he was reading the declaration.Ald.Penny asked a pertinent question, to which, however, he did not press for an answer.\u201cWho gave those gamblers in Sohmer Park penmission to ply their calling there?\u201d he demanded.Chief Hughes looked glum, Robert.\u201cI saw it stated in some of the newspapers,\u201d! said the latter, flippantly, \u2018that they had received permission from Quebec.\u201d Ald, Kennedy\u2014*'That wasn\u2019t true.Taillon has himseli denied it.piece of Lluff.* Chief Hughes\u2014\"\"The question will come before the Investigation Committee to be appointed by he City Council to-mor- row.\u201d Ald, Penny said that as the letter was addressed to the Palice Committee that committee should deal with the question.But he failed to insist on an answer to his question, who gave permission to the Sohmer Park gamblers?Ald.Jacques and Ald.McBride suggested that the letter should be sent to the City Council, and this was agreed to, after Ald.Penny had succeeded in getting a motion passed '\u2018that the laws against gambling and houses of ill-fame be enforced in future.\u201d A petition from St.Lawrence Street merchants was read, asking that the shooting galleries on that thoroughfare should be suppressed.Chief Hughes stated that they could be suppressed on the receipt of a petition such as that which had been tead.\u201cBut they are like houses of ill-fame,\u201d he added; if they are removed from street they will re-appear in another.\u201d Ald.McBride said that the hy-law in respect not only to shooting galleries, but to peddlers should be rigidly enforced.\"I find,\u201d he stated, \u2018that out of about 500 peddlers in the city, only 40 have paid licenses.This is an injustice to those who pay.\u201d The petition was referred to the City Attorney.Two claims for damages for false ar- rest\u2014from E.Guertin and E.Ricard\u2014 were also sent to the City Attorney.Ald.McBride asserted that boys were in the habit of throwing stones at windows of St.James Methodist Church en Sundays while divine service was going on.Chief Hughes promised to send a policeman in plain clothes to watch the Church on Sundays.Ald.Kennedy wanted to know when a successor would be appointed to Captain Murphy, of No.9 Station, Point

projecting bricks whi¢h will project an inch over the upper course, The bricks are dark red pressed, laid in red mortar, made by mixing dry Venetian Red paint with common mortar into which a little

towns, but too often thes crowd into the large cities and spend their lives ns petty clerks or under-paid, because unskilled, artisans, One factor in the well-being of the family is too often ignored by the housewife, and that is the quality of food given to her children.She says that it is almost im- pussible to get fresh meat so far from town, and that it is cheaper and easier to use the

flourish on poor eating.This very monotony of diet is one of the things that unconsciously disgusts young people with farm life.With little additional expense the housewife can make her table attractive by an intelligent nse of the materials at her command, Granted that it is impossible for her to get fresh meat, which is not always the case, provided that she makes the getting a matter of

It must be this,\u201d she said.\u2018\u2019Here is the entry in the order-books,\u2019 We looked where her ind | ex-finger had arrested itself, and read\u2014 * : \u2018Mr,\u2014\u2014, Demi-toilet the same as Lady Estmere\u2019s.To be ready by next Friday; paid in advance.\u2019 \u201cI remember the circumstances now that I look at the entry,\u201d said madame.\u2018\u2019A gentleman called and told me his wife Was so struck with her ladyship\u2019s dress that she must have one like it.I ob- Almost any kind of a box with a hinge cover will answer for a tool chest, in which trays can be arranged to hold tacks, nails and small tools, such as bits, gimlets, compasses and nail punches, The illustration shows a good and substantial tool chest that can be made at a small cost, Find a strong box made of smooth boards at least three-quarters of an inch in thick- ress.It should be about twenty-six inches long, sixteen inches wide and twelve inches high, and provided with a cover If, however, you cannot got a good box of these proportions you can make one of smooth-tongued and grooved boards.Construct a box carefully of the size given and nail the top, or cover, on the same as the bottom, then with a rip saw cat all around the sides of the box, two and one- half inches down from the top, and in this way the lid or cover can be out loose from the box, This cover will have the upper end of the sides and ends of the box, which will form a sort of edging all around the lower part of the lid, as may be seen in the illustration, Next get two long strips of wood two and one-half inches wide and one-half or five-eighths of an inch thick, and with one of then form a base all around the bottom of the box, another one at the top edge of the box proper, and still another aroïnd the lid, and with a palr of hinges, with which to fasten the lid to the box, and a chain to keep the cover from falling buck too far when opened, the chest will appear like the illustration, A pair of iron handles, that can be purchased at any hardware store for a few cents each, are to be fastened to the ends of the chest above the middle, also a luck at the tront will be a convenience, One or two sliding trays can be arranged to ft the inside of the chest of pine or white wood, not more than three-:ighths gE TOOL CHEST, of an inch in thickness.They shonld be a trifle shorter than the inside width of the chest, eo they will slide easily withont wedging.Divisions can be made in the trays, dividing each in three or fonr compartments, in which different supplies of nails, tacks and small tools may be kept.A track, or cleat, of thin wood nailed to the inside of either end of the chest will serve to hold the trays in position.With the addition of several coats of paint and your name, if you choose to paint it on, you will have a tool chest that will he a substantial and useful one, as well as a good piece of furniture for yoar wo rkroom.\u2014New York Recorder.A Serious Case, Indeed.Few things vex a physician more than to be sent for in great haste at an unreasonable hour, only to find upon arrival that little or nothing is the matter with the patient.An eminent English surgeon was called to an \u2018\u2018urgent case\u2019 of this sort, and found that the patient, who was a man of great wealth but small courage, had received à very slight wound from a fall.The surgeon\u2019s face did not betray his irritation, but he gave his servant orders to go home with all possible haste and return with a certain plaster.The patient, turning very pale, said, anxiousiy: \u201cI trust, sir, there is no great and immediate danger?\u201d *Indeed there is,\u201d answered the surgeon, \u201cWhy, if that fellow doesn\u2019t run like a racehorse, there's no telling but your wound will heal before he gets back with the plaster!\u201d How Four Crows Got a Meal.In a garden a dog was eating a piece of meat, in the presence of four covetous crows, They evidently said a great deal to one another on the sulject, and then one of them tried to pell the meat away from the doy, which he naturally resented.At last, a big, strong crow succeeded in tearing off a piace, with which he retiirned to the tree where the others were congregated.A long pow wow now ensued, whicli ended in all four orows fiying down to the dog, the leading crow dexterously dropping the small piece of meat within reach of his mouth.The dog immediately snapped at it, anwisely letting go the big piece, which was seizsd by two crows and carried to the tree, where it was devoured, with much fluttering ani hilarity, while the cheated dog walked away with every appearance of discomfiture, The Eiffel Tower Dissected.The total weight of the ironwork in the Eiffel tower is 1,767 tons and the fonnda- tions of each of its four independent legs are sunk to a depth of fifty feet.It is constructed of iron throughout (moat people think it is of stee.), the pieces of the metal used in its cons:ruction being 112,- 000.The exact height of the great iron skeleton is 984 feet (asually given ms even 1,000), and it is to be the property of the builder for twenty years, beginning with 1889, after which the sole ownership reverts to the city of Paris ee The Differences in Voices.One's surprise at the fact that no two persons\u2019 voices are perfectly alike censes when one is informec by an authority on the subject that, though there are only nine perfect tones in the human voice, there are the astounding number of 17,592, 186, 044, - 415 different sounds.Of these fourteen direct muscles produce 16,383, and thirty indirect muscles produce 179,741,823, while all in co-operation produce the total given akove, tected to make it, as we do not care to make two dresses alike; but he irsisted, and said his wife wanted to take it abroad.In fact, she had gone abroad now; so it was to be made to Lady Est- mere\u2019s measure, and altered afterward, if necessary,\u201d \u2018He gave no name?\u201d \u201cIt seems not\u2014but that did not matter, as you sec he paid for it before it Was made.\u2019 We knew all we wanted.At any time an inspection of madame\u2019s books would prove the truth of Mrs.Merton's tale so far as the two dresses were concerned.So, thanking madame for har civility, we left her establishment.\u201cThat,\u201d said Rothwell, as we emerged from the glass doors, \"is a thing a single man should only be called upon to do once in a lifetime.\u201d We walked across to his hotel, where I had promised to lunch with him.\u201cNow,\u201d I said, \u201cmy task is done.The rest is your part.\u201d \u201cDid you not write to your father last night?\u201d he asked.\u201cCertainly not; you had my promise.\u2019 \u2018You would like bim to know about this?\u201d \u201cAs soon as possible.\u201d \u2018Well, I have reccnsidered the matter.He had better be told.Is he still in Devonshire?\u201d \u201cYes, | found a letter from him awaiting me yesterday.\u201d \u201cThen we will settle your affairs first.We will go to Torwood to-morrow.\u201d \u2018Will you come?\u201d 1 asked, surprised, \u201cOf course I will.You will want my testimony, Besides, that paper never : leaves me until I give it to Lawrence Estmere.\u201d 1 thought it very kind of Lord Rothwel} to interest himself about my concerns.I told him so.\u201cSpare me your thanks, Philip, and be ready to start by the first train to-mor- row.\u201d We started as he suggested by the early.train, and having at last reached Mine- head, took a carriage and posters to carry us as near to Torwood as they could.Then dismissing them, we struck across tho moor straight to our destination.It was a journey which consumed much time, so it was not until evening that we reached Torwood, The latter part of the journey had not keen a lively one.Rothwell had, from some reason or other, cloaked himself with moodiness aud silence.I could scarcely get a question answered, 80 at last gave up all attempts of sustaining a conversation.\u2018Thank Heaven, home at last!\u201d I said, as the dim outline of Torwood grew visible.\u2018\u2019I must say you bave been a cheerful companion since we left Minchead.\u201cI have keen thinking how we shall go back.\u2019 \u201cWe can go by boat or walk until we get a conveyance.\u201d?\u201cYou do mot know my meaning,\u201d said.\u201cWhat meaning?You spoke plainly.\u201d \u201cNever mind.Go on first.It grows dark, and you know the path.\u201d Some of his sayings rocently had been quite enigmatical.We reached the gate and passed up the steep garden.There was a light burning in the library, and the curtains were not drawn, I looked through the window and saw my father at the table, reading.As I looked at his beautiful, intellectual face, so full of sadness and thought, my heart leaped out to him.As I pictured his dreary solitude I am not ashamed to say that the tears came to my eyes, and for a moment I felt as if Claudine had but the second place in my heart.But I knew this was but the sentiment of the moment.I turned away.\u2018Stay one moment,\u201d said Rothwell, who was beside me; f\u2018don\u2019t disturb him for a little while.\u201d Perhaps he spoke louder than he intended; perhaps my foot grated on the gravel.he My father raised his head, and rising from his scat came to the window.He opened it.\u201cWho is there?\u201d he said.\u201cIt is I, father.\u201d \u201cPhilip, my son! Who else?\u201d \u201cLord Rothwell.\u201d I was close to the window, my hand was in my father\u2019s as I spoke.1 was looking eagerly into his face, apd wondered at the strange expression which crossed it as 1 told him who my companion was.He drew his hand from mine.\u2018You are both welcome,\u201d, he said, \u2018I will open the door.\u201d In a few seconds I was in his arms.Then he held out his hand and grasped Lord Rothwell\u2019s.Any fear I might have felt as to my companion being welcome was dispelled.The greeting between the two men was almost affectionate.Mrs.Lee, as soon as she had recovered from her surprise was orderel to prepare the best meal she could.Then we went to our rooms to ramove the stains of travel.I drèssed myself, and, opening my window, looked out.The old sound of the waves beating on the beach below brought: Lack its thousand memories.The fresh sea trecze braced me and invigorated me.\u2018After all,\u201d I thought, *with all its dreariness, I love the wild solitary old home,\u201d Then, as I mused, I felt an arm passed round my neck.It was my father\u2019s.lie had entered noisclessly, and now stood beside me.\u201cOur vicit must have taken you by surprise,\u201d 1 said, cheerfully.\u2018No, I have been expecting to see you.I felt that you would come soon.\u2019 \u201cI am afraid I have neglected shamefully,\u201d I said, feeling rather science-stricken.\u2018It is not that.Do you love me, Philip?\u201d he asked, abruptly, but solemnly.you con 32392 VVVAVVRVVSDAIN made no reply to his guest's sally.handed mec his keys.\u2018Go down to the cellar, Philip.Bring some champagne and some Lafitte; yon know where to find them.\u201d When I returned with the bottles I evidently cut short an argument between the two men.Its closing words I heard.They were spoken by Lord Rothwtll.tI swear you shall listen if I wait here till doomsday!\" He It was clear from this ke had broach- | ed tho object of our visit; but I feared he had not fone so judiciously.My father was not the man to brook such peremptory words as these.Tho meal we sat down to was a silent, sorry affair.My father had already dined, and Rothwell, in spite of his protestations of hunger, soon appeased Lis appetite.I had the food and the wine almost to myself.My father scarcely spoke a word.He sat stroking his long gray mustache or his pointed beard.I felt sure that my advocate\u2019s hastiness had damaged my cause.At last my papgs of hunger were satisfied.My father pushed the claret to Lord Rothwell.His guest declined it.Will you smoke?\u2019 asked my father, \u201cIn your library with you,\u201d replied Rothwell with meaning.\"You are resolved?\u201d \u2018Quite.\u2019\u2019 If I insult you, you won\u2019t leave mo?\u201d \u201cYou cannot insult me.It is no use to try.\u201d My father rose, with a dark frown on his brow.I could scarcely believe him to be the man who a few minutes before had pleaded, as it were, for the love which was his by right ard gratitude, \u201cCome, then,\u201d he =aid shortly and imperiously.He turned on bis heel, and in a discourtecous manner passed out of the room.I half rose from my chair, ter bo with you,\u2019 I said.Rothwell pushed me back.\u201cStay where you are until I want you \u2014and, Philip, listen: if ever you say prayers, pray that nothing may make this night a fearful memory.\u201d Ho left the room, leaving me in a state of wonder.There was an excitement and agitation about both him and my father which the circumstances of' the case eould not account for.Lord Rothwell had now gone to plead my cause, but I was beginning to think diplomacy was not his forte.He had commenced by putting my father in a rage.Well, I must trust to myself in future.(fo be continued.) \u201cI had bet- A Grand Feature.Of Hood\u2019s Sarsaparilla is that while purifies the blood and sends through the veins full of it it coursing richness and health, it also imparts pew life and vigor to every function of the body.Hence the expression so often heard: \u2018\u2019Hood's Sarsaparilla made a new person of me.\u201d It overcomes that tired feeling so Common now.Hoods\u2019 Pills are purely vegetable, perfectly harmless, always reliable and beneficial.BIRTHS, COSTIGAN\u2014In this city, on the14th Sentem- bor, a gon to Mr.and Mrs, William H.Costi- gan, 1560 Ontario Street.226 DE SOLA\u2014At03 Victoria Street, on the 15th instant, the wife of the Rev.Meldola De Soia of a daughter.228 NORMOYLE\u2014On the 17th of September, th® wife of P.J.Normoyle of a daughter.[Now foundland papers please copy.] 226 ROGERS\u2014A+t Deseronto, on tee 13th of September, the wifo of Frank J, Rogors of a Aon MARRIAGES, UNDERHILL-BARTLAM-\u2014On the 13th inst., at St.Dartholomew\u2019s Reformed Episcopal Church, by the Rev, A.H.Grace.assisted by the Rev.W.D, Stevens, rector, Charles Samuel Underhill, of Montreal, to Miss Florence Annie Bartlum, of West Kcnsiogton, London, Loe.26 WHITE-BERTRAND\u2014On Saturday, September 15th, in the Archbishop's private chapel, by the lev.Couisncau, Llewellyn White to Azilda Bertrand, daughter of Zotique Bertrand.No cards.226 DEATHS.TESSIER\u2014At 49 St.Andre Street, on the 17th inst, Marie Rose de Lima Trempe, he- loved wife of Joseph Tessier, lfuneral Thurs- dry, 20th, at 7.45 a.m.Friends and acquaintances are requested vo attend.226 VIDAL\u2014At Neihart, Montane, August 27th;

W.W.Ogilvie, 45,720 bush Canadian and J.R.Esdaile, 51,206 bush Canadian and J.B.Campbell, 36,053 bush Chicago wheat.Freights from Montreal at present are fairly satisfactory but an advance may possibly occur.There was a considerable increase in the inspections of coarse grains at Montreal this week, while a falling off was noted in the inspections of wheat.The inspections in detail were as follows :\u20144809 centuls No- 1; Chicago hard spring wheat ; 4080 cen- tals No.1 white wheat ; 340 centals No.1 oats ; 4760 centals No, 2; 1020 centals No.3; 27,300 centals No.2 peas; 2400 centals No.3 peas ; 4144 centals No.2 rye.There is a material expansion in the volume of deliveries of new wheat in Manitoba, A special from Carberry says: \u201cAbout 5,000 bushels of wheat are being delivered daily at Carberry, but a very small proportion is sold, the price being considered too low.\u201d Wheat in Chicago, according to Meredith and ()\u2019 Brien opened this morning dull but firm in face of local bearish pressure and also in the absence of any considerable shipping or speculative demand.The monotony to-day was broken toward the close by a little speculative response to local shorts covering owing to smaller estimated receipts for to-morrow and the reported actual or prospective working of several round lots oË wheat for export from Chicago, St.Louis and Duluth.Itoduced estimates of yields of the French wheat and American corn crops were also in circulation.Provisions were ready for an up turn and responded easily to the firmer tone in grain markets.The market is again growing broader with lard showing the leading strength.\u201cThe corn crop will be 1,300 million bushels\u201d said Prime in his summary yesterday; He adds: \u201cAll this talk about a vast corn crop in the South, I don\u2019t think, is worth the paper it is written on.The South raises corn for its own use, but not for export.Ii has no means of preserving it through the winter.It is gathered in the crudest manner in open pens.You will never see a bushel of Southern corn cross the Oaio river or come up the Mississippi on this crop.There is only one State today that grows a crop of corn worth reporting and that is Illinois.Illinois farmers will have money to burn next season.\u201d To-day\u2019s receipts in Chicago in cars were : Wheat, 301 cars, contract, 203 cars; corn, 417 cars, contract, 367 cars: vats, 271 cars, contract, 152 cars; hogs, 13,000.The estimated reccipts in Chicago for to-morrow are : Wheat, 190 cars; corn, 235 cars; oats, 142 cars.Bradstreet\u2019s report will not be issued until to-morrow.Minneapolis received 535 cars.Chicago, special: \u201cIt is estimated that there are not less than 5,000 cars of grain on the tracks around Chicago waiting delivery.Some roads are sending out notices to their agents not to receive any more grain for shipment until the present block- ude is raised.\u201d The Prairie Former says in its September crop report : \u201cThe acreage planted to corn originally was 77,843,000 acres, the largest on record.The acreage cut up was 7,764,- 000.The returns indicate a crop of 1,387,- 000,000 bushels;\u201d which, cousidering increased population, is the smallest crop on record.London, Sept.18.\u2014Cargoes off coast, wheat steadily held;

amount of activity in business in the country, but locally, with the exception of a small continuous demand for Quebec and Townships cheese, there is nothing doing.Ot course there would be a demand for Ontario cheese, but half the time there is none available.Fancy Townships has sold at 103ce to 10£e and Qusbec at 10Lc.Nominal rates rule for Western.A dealer who hms just returned from Brockville reports considerable contracting in that district on the basis of about 102c.\u201cOf course,\u201d he said, \u201cmore has been paid on several occasions.\u201d Farmers in that district have been feeding right along.Rains have improved pastures considerably.The quality of the cheese coming forward at present is quite satisfactory.There are bearish symptoms perceptible in the London Grocer\u2019s report this week, but it must be remembered that this reports the market of two wecks ago, since then a revival seems to have set in, judging from cables.The Grocer says: Rather high prices are still reported from the other side of the Atlantic for Canadian and American clhicese-\u2014say 508 6d to 52s 6d c.f.and i., delivered here.Operations have Leen much curtailed, snd bids for the con- sighments of 21,600 boxes, per Monte Videan from Montreal, just arrived, have visibly flagged, the cheese bv this steamer being firmly held for 50s to 51s; but as an enquiry exists for choicest makes, which must be satisfied, 49s to (occasionally) 50s has been paid for special qualities; aud this circumstance of iteelf suffices to establish stiffer prices for the week.btFollowing is

scen so few Montreaj traders interested in Chicago us at present,\u201d remarked a broker on \u2019Change to-day.The accuracy of this.statement is not to be doubted.Of course there are a few who are still holding wheat with the almost vain anticipation that it will advance, but there are still less who are desirous of entering into active speculation.As to corn, the extreme difference in the estimated of the crop naturally create an uncertain feeling in the market, which is not usually felt.However, a few local men have pulled in quite a little in corn off and on, and can afford to rest on their oars.BONSECOURS RETAIL MARKET | There was any quantity of vegetables and fruit ofiered on the market this morning, but the quality of most of the stuff was not of the best.Apples are plentiful, in fact the supply seems greatly in excess of the denand, which naturally centres on choice descriptions.Potatoes and new oats were held by at least half the farmers present.In the lower part of the market, California {fruits were the chief articles offered, and somewhat lower prices induced a better demand.The oyster stalls did a rushing business, but we did not hear of any barrel

the crop of 1893 totalled up 97.762,080 hectolitres, this year\u2019s crop is 23,210,701 hectolitres in excess of last year.A hectolitre equals 2,753 bu, so that the crop of 1894 isabout 333,000,000

The Tartarin of Montreal Humoronsly Described.Max O'Kell\u2019s new book, \u201cJohn Bull & Co,\u201d is well worth reading, it only for the high spirits of the author that flow through its pages.When Mr.Blouet writes ot \u201cjohn Bull & Co.\u201d he means the English Provinces, Fanada and Australia principally, leaving India for another book.Une would think that even Max U\u2019Rell would tind it hard to say anything new of a subject that had been pretty well threshed out, and of which he had done as much of the threshing as anybody clse, but he does say a good deal that is new and a good deal that is amusing.Mr.Blouet begins his book by telling us that France is the foremost country of the world\u2014a fact, he adds, '*which it would be pucrile to seek to prove, seeing that the French admit it themselves.\u2019\u2019 \u2018Then he goes on to say that the Frenchman always pities foreigners, though he thinks them vastly amusing, \u2018\u201cHe looks upon the Belgian as a dear, good simpleton, the ltalian as a noisy nobedy, the German as a heavy, pompqus pedant; he thinks the American grotesque.\u201d mad and the Englishman eccentric and grotesque.\u2019 And then he adds that his own way ot looking at these things is very much the same.\u2018Travelling, however\u2014and he has been travelling for eight years\u2014knocks a good deal of thc provincialism out of a man, and he thinks that he can look at things in a less provincial spirit than the average Frenchman.\u2018lo see the Englishman-\u2014 the Britisher, rather\u2014 in all his glory\u201d says Max U\u2019kKell, \u2018\u2019you must look at him in those lands where he has elbow-room; where nothing trammels him, and where he is allowed to treely develop his characteristic traits.\u201d \u2018in Canada,\u201d he adds, \u2018\u2018you see John Bull quite at home, busy, fat and flourishing, a pink tip to his nose, and his head snug in a fur cap\u2014it is John \u2018Bull in a ball.It is the seal.In Australia you see him long and lean, nonchalant, happy-go-lucky, his face sunburned, his head crowned with a wide-brimmed light felt hat, walking with slow tread, his arms pendant, his legs out of all proportion.lt is john Bull drawn out.It is the kangaroo.\u201d Mr.Blouct began his English provincial traveis in Canada.When he visited Quebec tthe ica of winter was breaking up, and the rivers were fuil of small icebergs, which mace the crossing from the train at Point Levis quite an exciting voyage.\u2018fhe skipper of the îerry- boat waited and watched until a comparatively clear passage seemed possible, and at last, with many twistings and dodgings, and bumps, the boat reached the Quebec quay.\u2018the people speak of this annual break-up of winter as the flood,\u2019 and when the melted snow comes down from the upper town a house In the lower town of Quebec must be anything but a desirable residence.In many streets the roadways had been raised eight or ten feet by the snows which had been cleared from the pavement after each fall, and heaped up in the road.Along this elevated way the sleighs ran above the level of the pedestrian\u2019s head.Montreal he describes as a town of sports and gayety par excellence, \u2018\u2018During my stay in Montreal and Quebec,\u201d says Mr.Blouet, *1 often met a Frenchman, a good arisian, a picture of health and happiness, a charming talker, full of lite, happy to be alive, and getting amusement out of everything he came across; a little bit Gasgon, it is true, but so little; a Tartarin of good society.\u201d \"IYANINOW AO NIUVLUAVE V \u2018The day ! left Montreal 1 met him in the hall of the Windsor Hotel, muffled up In a white woollen hooded tunic, with a red sash around his waist, and on his head a woollen cap, with its tassel jauntily hanging on his shoulder.The costume was completed by immense thick stockings and knickerbockers, and in his hand he carried snowshoes and an alpen- stock\u2014the regular snowshoeinz get-up.\u201cAh, hal\u2019 said I.\u2018You are off on an expedition over the snow?\u201cNot I,\u2019 he replied, and his good, open face beamed with fun.\u2018I am going to get photographed.\u2019 \u2018Not all the Tarasconnais come from Tarascon.\u201d The ladies of the countries that he visits always interest Mr.Blouet, and he naturally describes the Canadian lady, who he says is \u2018a happy combination of her English and American sisters.She has the physical beauty, the tall, graceful figure, and the fine complexion of the former, allied to the decided bearing, the naturalness, the frank glance, and the piquancy of the later.li, added to these one could have the shrewd common-sènse, and the irresistible charm of the Parisienne, the result would be a really ideal woman.The amount of outdoor exercise taken by Canadian women in their winter games and pastimes goes far to explain the beauty of their complexions.The air of Canada is dry, the houses are heated in the same way as American houses, yet these two things, often advanced as the cause of the American belle\u2019s pallor, do not prevent the Canadian women from having brilliant complexions.\u2019* .Mr.Blouet's plan was to go by rail from Canada to the Pacific Coast, and thence by boat to New Zealand.This route took him over American mountains and prairies and into Western cities, + cn\u201d then the Moimon stronghold, which he does not stop to describe, because he says that any description of that place and its people would be \u2018'ancient history.\u201d He merely says of the Mormons \u2018hat they are \u2018\u2019meek-voiced and mild-mannered, as onc would expect in the descendants of an oppressed sect.Attendants are polite and altogether a great contrast to the same class of persons on the other side of the Rockies.The Mormons continue to believe and call themselves saints.This is a harmless mania that hurts nobody.\u201d AFRAID OF THE WEST.Tory Ministers Abanden Their Trip to Manitoba.(Specisl to \u2018The Herald) Otiawa, Sept.18.\u2014The proposed trip of Sir Hibbert Tupper and Hon.J.A.Ou,- mat to Manitoba, the Northwest and British Colwubia has been knocked on the head.It appears that Mr.Daly had made arrangements for their addressing a num- her of meetings in the West at different points between Winnipeg and Victoria, B.C.They were booked to leave here tonight.There was, however, a meeting of the Cabinet at eleven o'clock this forenoon, and the trip has been declared off.The only excuse given is that there is sickness in Mr.Tupper\u2019s family, but this was the case before the arrangements were made.As far as Mr.Ouimet is concerned it is said that he never desired to go.He had no wish to receive delegations on the School Question, as he was sure to do at Winnipeg.The real reasons for the abandonment of the tour will, no doubt, come out in due time.In the meantime there is evidently nothing to be done by the Government to counteract the work done by Mr.Laurier and his party in the West.7 BANQUE D'HOGHELAGA HEAD OFFICE, MONTREAL Capital Paid-Up, = = = Reserved Fund, - - = $710,100 270,000 F.X.St.CHARLES, President.R.BICKERDIKE,

increased from 6,000 to 50,000, and, to the people of the South, Oddtellowship has become an established institution.The total membership of the order is now 780,000, or, including the Sisters of the Rebekah degree, 889,000.To this should be added in foreign jurisdictions a membership of 25,000, making a combined membership oi nine-tenths of a million men and women.A charter has been granted for an initial lodge in Newfoundland, the only part of Brietish North America not hitherto occupied.The question had arisen whether this colony should be considered in the jurisdiction of the Maritime

FOR 850,000 DAMAGES TAKEN.Mr.Robidoux Will Appeal\u2014Full Text of the Judgment.Judge Sicotte gave judgement in the case o: Hon, J.E, against Alton F.Clerk for obtainin under false pretences.Mr.Sicotte in the following summary of the facts declaring the charge not sufficient dismissed the case and Mr.Robidoux paying the costs announced his intention of appealing the case.Regina vs.Clerk, accused of unlawfully obtaining certain sums of money by false pretense : \u2018A false pretense is a represen- \u2018\u2018tation, either by words or otherwise, of a \u201cmatter of fact cither present or past, \u201cwhich representation is known to the per- \u201cson making it to be false, and which is \u201cmade with a fraudulent intent to induce *\u2018the person to whom it is made to act upon \u201csuch representation.\u201d Art.357, Criminal Code.To establish this offense the complainant declares that the accused did in the city of Montreal, on or about the 20th July and on the 26th July, 1893, obtain from his wife $500, at cach of the aliove dates, by saying that he had bought for her on the lst March, 1893, 100 Montreal Street Railway shares.whilst in fact he had never bought those shares for ber and that no transfer of the said shares had been made in the company\u2019s books, In support of his pretention the complainant, the Hon.Mr.Robidoux, gave nis deposition in which he says that after having paid to the accused these two sums he enquired if the 100 shares that rhe accused said he had bought for Mrs.Robidoux had really been bought, and that then he discovered that this was not true.Being severelly pressed in his cross-cxamination so as to know from who he had obtained this information, he fn- ished by saying that it was from Mr, Lasher, the Montreal Street Railway Company\u2019s secretary.(See part of his deposition 1\u2014) Q.You have stated that you were informed that he (the accused) had not bought, that stock?A.Yes.Q.Where did you get that information?A.Well, if you force me to say it, I will, but I would rather not.Q.Certainly, please answer.A.T wish to be understood that I do not volunteer the statement, I got it from the office of the Montreal Street Railway Company.Q.What information did you get there ?A.Information that Mr, Clerk never got any stock on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or in the early part of March.Q.Never bought or transferred stock?b.That is another thing?A.Never transierred any stock.A.To my mind it 1s the same thing.Q.So the only information under which you have laid this complaint is the one you got from the Montreal Street Railway office?A.Yes, Q.Mr.Lusher or nobody else in the office told you that Mr.Clerk had not bought that stock?A.They told me he had not bought that stock.Q.Who told you that?A.Mr.Lusher, in the sense 1 gave, to buy and sell.After this Mr, Lusher being called as a witness to corroborate Mr, Robidoux\u2019s deposition, says in cross-examination: Q.Did you tell Mr.Robidoux that Mr.Clerk had not bought those shares?A.Mr.Robidoux, 1 am sorry to say, is mistaken when he says that i told him esterday obidoux g money any was, that stock could be purchased and transferred without going through the Lors After Mr.Lusher had been heard as a witness, the complaint closed his side of the case.In my opinion the complainant com- plételr failed to esta!lish false preten- cos, a8 he wes nec able to establish that Mr.Clerk had falsely represented that he had bought 100 M.S.R.shares for Mrs.Robidoux, But the defendant having offered to produce witnesses to establish that when he had asked Mrs.Robidoux for money he had not only bought 100 shares, but had then the control of those shares.1 allowed that proof.We must not forget that in his letter to Mrs.Robidoux dated March 1st, 1803 (exhibit No.3), Clerk says that he bought for her, subject to the rules of the Mon- | treal Stock Exchange, 100 Montreal Street Railway shares, so to prove this he produced Mr.john H.Wallace, one of the partners of R.Moat & Co, who says that on the 1st of March, 1893, he sold to Mr.Clerk 50 Montreal Street Railway shares, $4,781.25, these shares being delivered through the Clearing House.Alexander Patterson, of the firm of Mc- Dougall & Co., says that on the 1st of March, 1893, he also sold to the accused 50 Montreal Street Railway shares for $4,787.50.These two amounts agree with the statement sent by the accused to Mrs.Robidoux, therefore there can be no doubt that when he Informed Mrs.Robidoux that he had bought those shares he had really bought them, according to the rules of the Stock Exchange, It is also clearly established by Mr.Wallace that the firm of Moat & Co.advanced the necessary money to pay those fifty shares.Mr.Smithers proves that Messrs.Burnett & Co.advanced the necessary money to pay the other fifty shares.Had the accused on the 20th and 26th of July, dates on which he asked Mrs.Robidoux for the said $500, those 100 shares?Sveral statements asked to the defence\u2019s witnesses were produced by them, These statements as well as Mr.Wallace\u2019s evidence show that on the said dates the accused had the absolute control of over 100 Montreal Street Railway shares.See Wallace\u2019s deposition: Q.On the 10th July and on the 25th July, 1893, were those 50 shares still under the control of Mr.Clerk, as you have just explained it, that is to say, credited to him in your books, and he was debited with the amount of the stock?A.We were still carrying Street Railway on these dates for Mr.Clerk.We do not know of course whose stock it was.Q.You had what amount?A.Perhaps a few hundred shares of it, Q.More than 200?A.Certainly.Q.More than 300?A.I would not be sure of that, but I know we had more than 200.Q.So on the 25th July Mr.Clerk was still controlling over 100 shares in your office of Montreal Street Railway stock?A.He was.Therefore it is clearly proved by this witness that on the above dates Clerk had in his possession over 100 Montreal Street Railway shares, and could dispose of them.Mr.Robidoux says those shares might have belonged to some other persons.If so he was bound to prove it in rebuttal, He also insists on the fact that there was no transfer in the company\u2019s books.I understand that if he had bought those shares and paid cash for them, the transfer would have been made immediately, but he only bought on margin, as he is himself obliged to admit in his eross- examination, and it is proved that this transaction was made according to the rules of the Stock Exchange.I have come to the conclusion that the accused cannot be ordered to stand a trial, and the complaint is therefore dismissed.A COUNTER SUIT ENTERED.Mr.Alton F.Clerk has lodged on oe ion for dama for

Craig and 3leury Street, and to one who was net familiar with the cause, it seemed as if an American patent medicine man was about to give one of his old-time concerts just he- fore the opening of his cloquent address in praising up the miraculous cures of his medicine, which would permanently cure from a corn on the toe to heart disease.But such was not the case.The people were attracted by the show windows of J.H.Blumenthal and Sous, whose windows are handsomely and artistically dressed with a most beautiful line of bargains in men\u2019s clothing and furnishings, together with one window being especially filled with choicest articles, with prices marked upon them for the sale to-day.No wonder people stopped, and it will be still another wonder, it this enterprising house, does not receive the largest patronage bestowed upon it to-day than even before.Messrs.Blumenthal and Sons have just begun their extra special sale which wili.take place on Wednesday of each week, and bargain® certainly will be found there.Another Bankrupt Stock.A clear Havana filled cigar from the bankrupt stock of the Cuban Cigar Co., at $1.50 per box of 50.Buy quick.They won\u2019t last long.L.H.Jacobs,
