Toronto, March 11.\u2014The meeting convened by the Mayor to protest against the Dominion Government granting remedial egislation on the Manitoba School issue was held in the Pavilion to-night and was excited, even disorderly.It was an old time rally, the big hall being crowded to the doors and the audience in the most enthusiastic trim.Warriag Kennedy, the Mayor who presided, made a very guarded opening speech, strictly confining himself to the legal justification on his side for calling the meeting.He read the opinion of the City Solicitor, declaring the legality of the gathering ns a civic meeting.Then he introduced Mr.Dalton McCarthy, Q.C., who was received with rounds of cheers.Mr.McCarthy at the outset referred to the Mayor's description of the meeting as a political one.He said it was not only a political matter but a question of the very highest political import to the welfare of the Dominion.(Applause).If the Privy Council at Ottawa, who have now reserved their judgment, were a court of law this meeting would be an insult to the law-abiding people of Toronto, because when a matter is sub judice a court of law is bound to discharge its duty without fear, favor or affection.The attempt to create an impression that this was a judicial question was done in order to blind the people.To some extent the attempt had been successful and many peo- le believed that the decision of the rivy Council has left no alternative to the Government of Canada but to pass the remedial order which the minority in Manitoba have applied for.Having outlined the history of the school question in Manitoba, Mr.McCarthy declared the question can now be dealt with by the people of Canada only on the ground of expediency and of justice.This was not a party question, and when the voice of this great city went forth he trusted the Governor-General-in-Council would pause before laying his hand on the legislature of the Province of Manitoba.(Applause.) Some people appear to think that because of the decision in England that the Governorin-Council has no other course than to redress the grievance which the judgment says has heen done to the minority in Manitoba.But it should be barne in mind that the grievance stated was only technical, The main point is that the Government of Canada could not check Manitoba, (Great cheering.) Two hundred thousand free people were not going to be checked at the behest of the French frierarchy of Quebec.The people of Manitoba have succeeded in framing an educational act and any check imposed upon them could not be for joug, The education law has been adopted by oth parties as the only course for the Province to pursue.The man who would lay a ruthless hand upon that law will be undertaking a task for which he will yet have cause to rue the day.Mr.McCarthy spoke at some length about the inefficiency of the Separate Schools of Manitoba.A first-class certificate was granted to a teacher in them for answering sets of questions, of which the following were examples: What is the capital of England?How would you address Ia archbishop How a bishop?(Great of ghter.) Could people wonder what kind of : service was to be expected from such teachers, Mr.McCarthy took the oppor.unity to praise John O'Donoghue, of Win- Obey à Romaa Catholic, who had gone to My to speak for the Manltoba public où man in the audience declared job onoghue was looking for a Government .On the contrary, said Mr.McCarthy, he a only trying to stop a Govern.Dent job.(Cheers.)

Ryan the schools of Manitoba were testant schools.If they were not to remain Protestant there should be banished from them Bible teaching, all prayers, and every sign of Christianity or trace of God.(Howls.) When the Nor- quay Government was defeated in Manitoba and Mr.Greenway came to power Green- way was introduced to Mgr.Tache, to whom he pledged himself to uphold the school system of the minority.Mr.Ryan had that on the authority of Mr.Alloway, a banker of Winnipeg, and son- in-law of James McLaren, of Buckingham.Mr.Joseph Martin at St.Francois Xavier also pledged himself not to interfere with the rights of the Catholics of Manitoba.Mr.Ryan had that on the authority of Hon.8.C.Biggs, formerly of Winnipeg, one of the signers of the petition calling the present meeting.Therefore he denounced the aboli- tiou of the Catholic schools as based on false pledges and disoreditable to Mr.Green- way and Mr.Martin.The disorder grew so general at this stage that Mr.Ryan was told to confine himself within five minutes to wind up.This he did, denouncing again the untruthfulness of Mr.Greenway and Mr.Martin.The meeting had treated him with unfair and unmanly opposition.A resolution and an amendment were then put to the meeting.The resolution proposed by Mr.Dalton McCarthy and seconded by Wm.Mortimer Clark, Q.C., read: \u201cIn the opinion of this meeting the subject of education is a matter of essential local concern and though the right of appeal to His Excelleney the Governer.GeneraLin- Council is, by the British North America act, and in the case of Manitoba, by its constitutional act, given in certain cases, yet it is a power so opposed to the governing principle which regulates the distribution of legislative authority between the Dominion and the Provinces, and its enforcement would be so humiliating to the Province that it is a jurisdiction which should never be assumed except in cases of the most flagrant abuses of Provincial power.\u201d The amendment proposed ky Mr.Ryan, and seconded by W.T.R.Preston, another prominent Liberal, read: ** That this meeting, while not desiring to abridge the rights of Manitoba to legislate on and administer all laws of a Provincial character, is of the opinion that inasmuch as the Catholics of Manitoba desire to continue the maintenance of their own schools and cannot conscientiously take advantage of the public schools for the education of their children, and that the double burden of supporting their own schools and being taxed for the support of the public schools of the Province at the same time is manifestly an act of injustice to the Catholics of our sister Province, be 1t resolved that the meeting memorialize the Manitoba Government to relieve the Catholics of the Province from the payment of their school taxes to the public schools when they have their own educational institutions and signify their desire to pay their taxes in their support,\u201d Only half a dozen people present voted for the amendment and Mr.McCarthy's resolution was carried with great cheering.Further resolutions were then passed declaring determined opposition on the part of the people of Ontario to the exercise of Pro- the Federal power, the readiness of Ontario to defend the rights and liberties of the sister Province, that no just ground or pretence has been alleged and none at all exists for interference with Manitoba and that the representative of Toronto to Parliament should represent local feeling to the Governor- General.Among the other speakers was Stapleton Caldicott, President of the Board of Trade, who declared that if the Government were to send the Queen\u2019s Own and the Grenadiers u to Maniteba to enforce the remedial law, the volunteers would not aot, and that the course of the Federal Government was calculated to drive Manitoba towards annexation.He advised them to leave Manitoba alone.A.T.Hunter, Rev.Principal Caven, Ald.Graham, E.Douglas Armour, Ald.Joliffe, J.K.MacDonald, and ex-Mayvor Pearson, of Winnipeg.delivered short speeches.The meeting closed amid excitement, the audience cheering for Manitoba, for British freedom and for the Queen.SUPREME COURT JUDGMENTS.(Special to the Herald).Ottawa, March 11.\u2014The Supreme Court met to-day to deliver judgments.There were present on the bench Chief-Justice Strong and Justices Taschereau, Gwynne, Sedgwick and King.The constitutionality of an act of the Legislature of Quebec namely, Vic.55 and 56, Cap.10, as to the collection of a double license, was again upheld.The case is that of Fortier va.Lambe.The act was sustained in the lower Court and again in the Supreme Court to-day.The case of the Queen vs.Filion, which ia dismissed, involves the right of the Crown for the negligence of its employees while on duty.The action of the Crown was dismissed.The following are other judgments: Ir vine vs.Archibald, dismissed with costs;

Magog, Que., March 11.\u2014The Town Hall was crowded to its doors this evening by an enthusiastic andience in favor of Mr.W.A.Cowhard, the candidate who has been nominated to oppose the return of Hon.M.F.Hackett.A distinguished party arrived from Montreal by the evening train, and the people crowded to the hall in which the meeting was announced to take place, to hear the discussion of Mr.Hacketl\u2019s custody of the interests of his constituents since his election to the Provincial Legisla- tore in 1892.Mr.Hackett himself arrived shortly after the Montreal party and, in company with Mr.A.H.Moore and several other supporters, proceeded to the hall.Among the visitors from Montreal were Hon.John 8.Hall, M.P.P.; Geo.Washington Stephens, M.P.P.; Ald.E.G.Penny and several other gentlemen.They were greeted with applause upon their making their appearance on the platform.L.A.Odette, of Magog, was chosen to the chair and he immediately introduced Hon.Mr.Hackett.The Honorable gentleman made a few remarks in French ard afterwards proceeded to address the audience in English He outlined the course which he had pursued while in the Legislature and dwelt on the reforms which he had supported during that time.\u201cI went,\u201d said he, \u201cto the old city of Quebec, gentlemen, with your mandate asa repre sentative to support an honest Government and honest and good measures for the welfare of the Province.It has been my pride, gentlemen, to carry out that man date in every instance to the best of my ability, and { now appear before you to suswer for my actions.I do not think that there is a newspaper in the country, no matter what party it supports, that says I have not been true to the duty you entrusted me with.True to my trust, I was the first to support by my vote and support by my voice the abolish.ment of the Legislative Council.I voted three times to cut down the amount of the sessional indemnity.It was upon the million loan that my return as a Minister of the Crowd was opposed.There are two reasons now gentlemen for my opposition.They are on the grounds of the objection of the million loan and the fact that I am a Roman Catholic.This is why I am opposed by men from Montreal, not people of my own county.It is for this that Montreal people are foisted upon us.As for religion I don't pretend to bea representative of the Protestant in the sense of a Protestant Minister ot the Crown.But I do say that I have always been a faithful guardian of your interests.\u201d Mr.Hackett went on to refer to the \u201cround robin\u201d of the English members rosented to Mr.Taillon, which said that a rotestant and one of the English members must be chosen to fill the vacant portfolio.He spoke of the various men who were mentioned and said that upon his own selection being urged in the Conservative press of the Province, he thought it his duty to the county to accept.\u201cI ask you, old and young,\u201d said he, \u2018that even if you do condemn the loan, to look at the position in which I stood.Are you then willing to consign me to private life?\u201d He then stated the facts of the case referring to the loan and to his having been at the hedside of his child at the time and unable to be at Quebec.That the loan had to be made{was admitted, said he, by all the prominent financiers of the Province, and he supported it upon Mr.Taillon\u2019s having told him this.In conclusion he announced that he thought that the whole solid phalanx of 1892 stood for hin now as it did then.Mr.W.H.Cowhard was the next speaker.\u201cIt iswith considerablediffidence,\u201d said he, \u2018\u2018that I stand up before you tonight.I am not an orator, gentlemen, but merely a working man as the majority of yourselves are, I believe.I say, gentlemen, that what we want at Quebec is not politics, but good, honest business men, Iam not a man who, as Mr.Hackett says, never has or never will give other than a Conservative vote.don\u2019t want to be pointed at in a sneering way as a workingman.We returned the present Government in 1892 for houest legislation.How have they done it?Dy such negotiations as the Taillon loan.This I say, geutlemen, is not à question of sentiment, it is not one of Catholicor Protestant, it is not a question of brilliant oratory, it is one of honest government.You know that when you touch a man\u2019s pocket you touch a tender spot.Mr.Hackett comes here to tell you that a loan of $77 on $100 is a good one.A few loans of this kind will ruin the Province beyond the power of any to redeem, (Applause.) I don\u2019t pose esa politician of two years\u2019 standing, as à manipulator of campaigns.I hope that when you go to the polls you will place your cross opposite the name of a workingman, one of yourselves.Loud applause followed Mr.Cowhard\u2019s address.Mr.A.H.Moore spoke in favor of Mr.Hackett, and was replied to in French by Mr.Chas.Marcil, of Montreal.Ex-Treasurer Hall followed.He stated that he was glad of the opportunity of answering some of the remarks of Mr.Hackett in support of Mr.Taillon\u2019s loan, He spoke of his course in the House since he entered it in 1886.In 1892 he accepted an invitation of Mr.ide Boucherville to join his Ministry, and of that administration be gave a brief sketch.\u201c\u2018Ithink,\u201d he said, \u2018that I can safely say here that the platform which we then laid down was one of economy and reform.During the first year it was necessary to impose a spstem of taxation.This was only temporary.I stated that at the time when I framed it.It included taxes on real estate, successions, manufactories and traders, $470,000 was collected and the deficit was reduced to $23,000.\u201d Mr.Hall went on to describe his course so well known on the Taillon loan and his resignation.He thought that the money due from the C.P.R.should have been utilized.\u201cWhen 1 knew that the loan at 77 was accepted I resigned, because I felt that I could not stand before an audience in the Province and justify it, and I can\u2019t.(Applauec.) If you think that these negotiations are to be supported then you must take the respousibility of taxation on your own shoulders.\u201d He stated that in every loan that he had floated he had asked for competition from five or six banks.Mr.A.F.Savaria, M.P., addressed the meeting in support of Mr.Hackett and his conduct, and was followed by Mr.G.W.Stephen, M.P.P.,who with facts and figures brought out a strong condemnation of the Taillon ministry.\u201cIt wants a few more hard handed mechanics like our friend in the House, gentlemen,\u201d said he, and the statement was greeted with great applause.The meeting broke up with applause for Mr.Cowhard.CORRESPONDENCE.Mr.Tarte Replies, To the Editor of the Herald: Sir, On my return from L'lslet tonight, 1 find in the Montreal Gazette of Saturday iust the following seutence: \u201cMr.Parte, whose name is inextricably mixed up in the very worst of the corrupt dealings that brought disgrace on Quebec, goes about the country with Mr.Laurier unrebuked, speaks from the sane platiorm and is sent on confidential missions to his associates ly the Liberal leader.\u201d I do not expect any fairness or justice from the gentlemen of the Montreal Gazette.Since the day 1 severed my connections with the Conservative party, they have devoted thenwelves to the task of disgracing me in the public esteem by perfidioug insinuations and statements that they knew to be false, 1 have repeatedly answered their accusations; but all in vain.For after waiting a œr- tain time, they bave mude them over again.The one specifically contained in the Gazette of the Oth inst.reads as follows: t0f the proceeds of the Baie des Chaleurs robbery, over $20,000 went at once to pay motes of Messrs.Tarte and Pacaud anu 1'ell-tBier and Langelier, made to raise momey.for Liberal election expenses.\u201d That statement ig altogether miislead- ing.After the elections ot 1891, that is to say, on the lst of April, 1 endorsed, jointly with the Hon.Senator Pelletier and the Hon.Francois Langelier, Mr.Pacaud\u2019s notes to the amount of $10,000, the proceeds of those notes being to iyle election petitions and counter petitions.li there is amy crime in this, 1 must stand guilty.But I may safely appeal to the judgment of all fair-minded people on this point.Mr.Pacaud claims in his evidence that he paid those notes out of the proceeds of his transaction with Mr.Armstrong re Baie des Chaleurs.Does that inct in any way incriminate me or Measrs.Pelletier and Langelier?The endoraci of a note cannot surely be held responsible for the ways and means that the endorser may take to pay the same.In this particulan case, the proceeds of the notes were to be deposited in Court, and employed to pay the notes when they fell due.As a matter of fact, neither Mr.Pelletier nor Mr, Lange- lier or myself ever got a cent out of the deposits that were made later on.it is then ungenerous, unfain and unmanly on the part of the gentlemen of the Montreal Gazette to try to soil my reputation by their efforts to establish that 1 was in any way connected with or that I in any way benefited by Mr, Pacaud\u2019s transactions with Mr.Ann- strong.What is true oi the hotes that I en- dorscd with Messrs.Pelletier and Fran cois Langelier, is equally true of a note of Mr, Charles Langelier, for a smallen amount that I endonsed during the elec tion, which note Mr.Pacaud also claims to have paid.When I endorsed that note, Mr.Langeter, who was then a Muster in Quebec, told me that he would take charge of it and that I would not have to bother about it.I may have been wrong in signing and endorsing papers for political purposes.I would like to ask Mr.Richard White whether he has never collected and used money for the same objects?1 need not tell you that neither Senator Pelletier, nor Mr.Langelier, nor myself were ever spoken a word, when we endorsed those notes about the Bale deg Chaleurs business.We put down our names on the paper as a matter of political accommodation, and with the object that L stated, feeling sure at the same time, that the proceeds of our motes would remain as a security for the payment of the same.J.ISRAEL TARTE, Montreal, March 11th, 1895.Court of Queen*s Bench.AZ the afternoon session ot the Court John Patterson was put on hig trial on a charge of having attempted to pick a lady\u2019s pocket on St.Catherine Street on the night of November 2nd last.The special constable who arrested him was the only witness, and he admitted in cross-examina tion that he had been discharged from the police force for making a false arrest.Frank Curran, who de- {fended him, made a motion that there iwas no evidence to go before the jury, Mr.Quinn, for the Crown, said there was nothing else against the prisoner, and the judge directed a verdict of \u2018mot guilty.\u201d The prisoner was then discharged.This was Mr.Curran's first case, and : he was congratulated on having conducted tt so guccessfully.John McLaughlin, alias John Hayes, was then put in the dock charged with breaking and entering the premises of Ferdin.| and Corriveau, 191 St.Lawrence Main Street, on the night of February 3rd.Constable Riopel gave evidence as to seeing prisoner on a barrel, and hearing the breaking of glass, but there was no proof of entering.Frank Curran, who defended the prisoner, addressed the jury on his behalf.After a short deliberation they returned a verdict of guilty of attempting to break and enter, and the prisoner was put back.A Good Start for Erne.New York, March 11.\u2014Frank Erne, the aspiring Buffalo featherweight, who is now in England, began his fistiz career in that country last Saturday night, according to a cable to-day, by defeating Billy Berry, whom Arthnr

Sherbrooke, March 11.\u2014A large and representative meeting of delegates from all parts of the constituency met this afternoon at the Grand Central to receive Mr.Le Baron's answer as to whether he would uccept the nomination to oppose the Ion.W.B.Ives.Promptly at three o'clock, the hour fixed, Mr.Le Baron entered the large and commodious parlor A., which was filled to overflowing.He was greeted with a warm reception and upon taking the stand addressed the meeting as follows : \u201cGentlemen Electors of the County of Sherbrooke : On the 21st of February, during my absence from the city, when at & meeting convened for the purpose of choosing a candidate to oppose the Hon.W.B.Ives I was unanimously chosen as the Liberal standard-bearer, it was with no small feelings of pride that I received the mews.While being assured that I had the confidence of the public, let me frankly say that my opinion of politics was not of the highest, aud as stated to you before, I had no desire for public life, was not in need of, mor would I accept any Government favors, and while I realized the necessity of a strenuous effort being made to bring ahout a better state of things than now exist I could not entertain the idea of sacriticing myself, but, gentlemen I am happy to tell you to-day that my mind has changed.Letters from all parts of the Dominion, including manufacturers as well as farmers, have asked me to carefully consider the duty I owe my country, and now gentiemen, feeling that you are not asking me to take a seat ina corrupt Government but under the leadership of one of the most honorable and greatest statesman of the 19th century, the Hon.Wilfrid Laurier, with pride I accept the nomination.\u201d (Loud applause).Mr.Le Baron continuing said he would stand by the Liberal party, that if he was elected his efforts would be in the interest of the masses rather than the classes, that he would support any measure whether of Conservative or Liberal origin, which he believed to be in the best interests of our country.He failed to see how a man could become so devoted to his party as to lose sight of principle.The meeting broke up, all feeling satisfied that the keynote to success had been sounded, and that Mr.Le Baron will most certainly be Sherbrooke\u2019s next representative in the House of Commons.MR.MATHER DECLINES TO RUN.Winnipeg, March 11.\u2014John Mather, of Keewatin, has declined to be the Liberal candidate for Algoma.DIED IN AFRICA, A Toronto Young Han Mecis Death in Soudan.(Special to the Herald.)

Coffee Cooler Knocked Oat in One Round\u2014To-day\u2019s Races at ithe Jacques Cartier Track\u2014 Local and General Sport» ing News.Of coursé nobody is going to say that the hockey match played yesterday on the Crystal Rink for the Bank Championship of Canada was the greatest match ever played, but it certainly was a thoroughly jnteresting game from beginning to end, and the large crowd which saw it was wonderfully well pleased.Tho contestants Were teams from the Bank of Montreal, Montreal, and the Bank of Commerce, Torouté, which are respectively champions in the two cities Montreal won by the very one-sided score of 12 goals to 2, but a little thing like that did not interfere for a moment either with the energy of the Queen City players or with the enthusiasm of the spectators.To be truthful it was a chanca for the general public to get even.There is a heart breaking coldness about the demeanor of the bank clerk as he haughtily chucks back your check at you, through a hole ina little brass door, and says \u2018*\u2018no funds.\u201d The receiving teller is apt to display no enthusi- esmn as you rush into the bank at two minutes to three with a deposit just large enough to cover the sight draft which your tailor has made on yon.When your business has compelled you to seek an andierice with a manager or cashier there has been an air of lofuy condescension about the extreme junior who has come back to tell vou that the great personage is engaged and cannot possibly see you until a week from next Friday; and evenoverthe telephone, when you have called up a friend who happens to work in the bank\u2014or, rather, who receives emolument for his services therein\u2014with no less honorable intention than to ask him to come out and have a drink after he has found his balance, ~there is an icy chill in bis his voice as he tells you that he has to go to a five o'clock tea and can\u2019t really do it, you know.These, and other thicgs rankle in the minds of such men as are not merchant princes and are therefore unable to address a ledger keeper us \u201cTow\u201d or \u201cFreddie\u201d and say casually that they saw him at the theatre the other night.Yes, these and other things rankle in many minds.Not mark you, that the genus bank clerk is unpopular, on the contrary he is a much sought after young mau, for he is of necessity well-groomed aud well-educated, and generally has a fine sense of those proprieties which prevent society's becoming a menagerie.Nevertheless, it is with a distinct feeling of joy that you see the young man, who looked suspiciously at, a \u201cV\u201d which you tendered him and only accepted iv after a long cousultation with two other young men, come skatifg down a rink, run into the side, und turn sixteen somersaults before he finally brings up.There is exuitation when another, who is generally exasperatingly well dressed, gets a foul tip which sends him kiting along où the ice for yards, with the snow getting up the legs of his knickerbockers and down the: back of his neck.This, of course, is aside from a description of yesterday\u2019s hockey match.lv is merely by way.of describing the feelings which prompted nwumy people to go and see it.Others less fiendishly disposed were clerks from other banks, managers, merchaut princes aforesaid.aud very many ladies, indeed.The:visitors were accompanied by a large contingent of well known Toron- tonians, who cheered the Commerce boys until the last of the fourteen goals had been scored.The teams were : BANK OF

although a strong easterly breeze provailed and there was a moderate sea running.Many people came here to-day from Cannes, Nice and other places in expectation of seeing \u2018a race between Ailsa and Britannia.To the great disappointment of all, the Ailsa did not put in an appearance and it is reported here that she has been unable to find a dnplicate of the throat halyard block which was damaged just previous to the start in the race for the Grand Prix de Monte Carlo on Saturday last.It is added that Ailsa may bave to ~end to Marseilles for a suitable block, The splendid sea wall was crowded this 5 ARE eR er a morning when the starting gun was tired in the first event of the Mentone International regatta.Many yachts, including Mr, Ogden Goelet\u2019s Whyte Ladye, assembled in the harbor.The race to-day was for a prize of 1,000 trancs, offered by the President of the French Republic, M.Felix Faure.The course is 20 miles long, the yachts sailing threo times around a triangle.The following were the times of the start: Britannia .».11.02.10 Corsair.- 11.03.10 Valkyrio .11.08.20 The first side of the triangle was a run to Cap Martin, and from there a beat seaward to à mark-boat, two miles south of the lighthouse.From that point there Was n reach home.All the yachts got away with recfed maunsails and jib headed to the sails.The Prince of Wales waa not present at the racing to-day.The greatest interest was manifested in the little American-built Dakotah as she emerged from the harbor with her mainsail reefed, carrying no topsuil and steered by her owner, young Mr.Henry Allen, who was clothed from head to foot in a suit of oilskins.Dukotah was no sonner outside the harbor than she plunged her bow into the big waves, which immediately swept her decks fore and aft.The Dakotah\u2019s competitors to-day were Rolla IIL and Bebelle, as under the measurements ot the Yacht Club of France, which were enforced for the first time today, the American yacht is rated at eleven tons.Dakotah, starting three minutes after the other yachts in her class, passed Rolla III before turning the first mark and passed Bebelle to windward, while on her way to the second mark.The American yacht completed the first round far ahead of her competitors, and gained steadily on the secoud round, eventually winning the race hy about, ten minutes after a splendid exhibition: of sea-going qualities and scaman- ship.Britannia in fier class won easily.The time of the yachts at the finish were: Britannia Corsair .,.Valkyrie I Britania consequently won by 20 minutes 45 seconds, actual time.Dakotah started at 11.25 a.m., and the time at the finish was: Dakotah.Bebeilo .Rollæ III But Dakotah, with her time allowance, won by a trifle over 10 minutes.The Biitanuia Damaged in n Gale.Cannes, March 11.\u2014After the racing the Britannia left Mentone for Cannes.When off Antibbes Point she was caught in a heavy gale.There was a highesea running at the time, but the vacht pushed on under a reefed mainsail.The Britannia was making fairly good weather of it under her shortened cunvas when both her topping.lifts parted, letting the heavy main-boom fall on the rail.This was smashed, and as the cutter rolled in the seaway the boom thrashed about, knocking the bulwark to pieces and tearing the main-sail.Happily the boom was secured before anybody was hurt and the cutter finally got to Cannes safely.It is reported that it will take another day or two to repair the damage sustained by the Ailsa last Saturday.THE RING.Slavin Knocks Out the Coflee (Cooler.London, March

SUPERIOR.PRESIDENT THIBAUDEAU WRITES IN DEFENCE OF THE SCHEME.ONLY AN ORDINARY BUSINESS DEAL WITI£ THE GOVERNMENT.The Object of the Company is to Open Up New Districts, Senator Thibaudeau, wha is absent In England at present, has written a long letter on the subject of the Atlantic and Lake Superior, in which he defends the scheme and contends that it is a mere businrss deal with the Government.The letter is ag follows : London, Feb.27, 1uv5, Dear Sir,~In justice to the company of which I have the honor to be president, I think it is right that the Canadian public should have the opportunity of having the real facts in connection with the issue of bonds by the Atlantic and Lake Superior Railway Company placed before them.The company was chartered by the Parliament of Canada in 1893, for the purpose of completing a through line of railway from Gaspe to Sault Ste.Marie, and it was authorized to utilize in this through line, by purchase, lcase or otherwise, certain lines which, united together, would form a through line between the above mentioned places, The act incorporating the company did not become law without full discussion at more than one sitting of the Railway Committee.During the subsequent recess the company made the necessary agreements with other companies, and during the session of 1894 Parliament approved aud ratified these agreements, The difierent companies referred to had been subsidized by the Federal and Local Governments in the ordinary way, and the new company was placed in their rights, It has for a long time been the practice for subsidised comtanies to utilise the subsidics granted to them to form a fund to provide for the payment of the interest of the company\u2019s bonds, and both the Dominion and Provincial statutes will show repeated legislation for the purpose of facilitating the payment by the Governments of interest for a term of years on the bonds of railway companies by the conversion of the cash subsidies paid or payable to the said companies.I can see nag valid objection to the Government acting as a trustee in this way and giving the Investor an absolute guarantee that he will receive his interest regularly for the time specified, particularly when the interest is provided by the conversion of subsidies granted to the company.There necd be ho deceit in the matter, There is no pretence that the Goverm- ment guarantees the principal or in any way assures investors of the ultimate success of the company.The position is perfectly well understood here, and those who would make it appear otherwise are not quite so disinterested as they would wish us to think them, The Atlantic and Lake Supericr Come pany, lu arranging with the Dominion Government to use the subsidies earned on the constructed portion of its line to guarantee the interest on the bonds about to be issued, acted, to use the precise words of the Deputy Mirister of T'inance, in the ordinary course of business,\u201d and asked and obtained precisely what any other company similarly situated had the right to ask and obtain.it seems to me extraordinary that although not connected with political matters for some years, some newspapers professing to support the Liberal party should, notwithstanding the position 1 previously occupled in that party, have made this every-day business arrangement with the Government the basis of an attack upon the Government which, it * true, would have implicated me in such a way as to have caused me\u2019 the loss of the\u2019 respect and friendship of every honest Liberal.A mind must be distorted which sees nothing hut boodle in this transaction, and if all Government transactions were as clean at this one there would be cause for rejoicing.So far as the financial people intercst- ed here are concersed, they appear to understand the true position very much better than those Canadians who have written on the subject.\u2018They have examined all the legislation on the subject, correspondence with the Govainnient, blue books, reports, etc, and have been advised by some of the best legal minds in London, and they can be safely left to take carc of themselves, Now, what ts at \u2018\u201c~ bottom of this outcry?Being absent from Canada, I am not in a position to know who is at the bottom of it there but knowing full well who organized the attack here, I can make a pretty close guess at his coworkers in Canada.It seems strange that the newspapers which have been the most violen\u2019 in denouncing the tyranny of ua certain railway monopoly in Manitoba and the Northwest, should be the most violent in denouncing the attempt of a company to deliver people in Ontario and Quebec from the same tyranny.'s= competition good in the Northwest alone?Must Ontario and Quebec farmers depend upon one railway company or, even worse, must they go without any raïlway facilities at all, because that tyrant thinks that it, and it only, shall provide these facilities® The different portions of this through llne are urgently required for the development of the different districts traversed by them.Subsidies have been granted by Federal and Toca) Governments; Liberals aa well as Conservatives in Ontario and Québec have approved of thesc grants, and this is no time to raise a cry of \u201cwild cat scheme,\u201d le- cause it is intended to consolidate scv- eral weak companies into one strong company which will command toe support of influential English and foreign capitalists.The records of the Ontario courts show that the Canadian Pacific Company was so anxious to huild the ko-called wild cat portion of this line itself that they tried to steal the ground from the Ottawa and Parry Sound Company.Must it be the old story apain?Ara jealousy and selfishness to be permitted to Mind the eyes of reason, and obtain by false and misleading statements expressions of disapproval of an énterprise destined to be of great use tn the Provinces of Quebec and Ontario?Why this pretended regard for the in- terosts of British investors) and why pretend that the fall in the price of Canadian Pacific Railway stock has heen caused by the report that a rival line is to be constructed from Paspeblac to Victoria, B.C.?It fs all part of a conspiracy to prevent the successful issue of the bonds of the Atlantic & Lake Superior Company, and the attacks in certain newepapers, only limited in their falseness by a wholesome dread of the law of libel, are irifling te the verbal efforts in that direction made in the principal money markets of Europe, The chief cause of the decline in Canadian Pacific Railway shares has been the great decline in the receipts of the line, the growing distrust in the menagement of the company, and the fear (since justified) that the dividend would be passed.Reports of all kind are current, among others one that some of those high in authority have themselves *tunloaded,\u201d and the evident fear of the new line shown by the frantic but unsuccessful efforts of the friends of the Canadian Pacific to ruin it have been used by «he bears to further depress the stock.In conclusion, I think I can fairly call upon all unprejudiced and loyal Canadians to assist and not obstruct a company whose object fs to develop districts in Ontario and Quebec, now lack- Ing railway facilities; to bring these dts- tricts into direct communication with the leading cities in these provinces, and to give Canada a Canadian seaport, open at all seasons and reached by a direct all Canadian line.Why continue to use forelgn ports and foreign railways, and go hundreds of miles out of our way to do it, when we have at our doors an available port superior in all respects ?Why travel 3,000 miles from New York to Liverpool, when hy sailing from Pas- pcobiac you need travel only 2,200?Why wait eighi days for our English letters, when we can get them in five?Perhaps a little studying on these questions will enable the reader to find some reasons why certain persons are opposing the Atlantic and Lake Superior Railway.I have the honor to be, Your obedient servant, J.R.-.1BAUDEAU, Pres:dent, Atlantic & Lake Supesior Railway Company.HER ROYAL HIGHNESS Weman has always been a favorite theme with poets and philosophers, wits and essayists.The subject, which in his inmost heart is dear to every man, and also, it goes without saying, to every woman, has been treated of in every strain \u2018from grave to gay; from tively to severe.\u201d Lectures innumerable have been delivered on woman, her wisdom and her folly, and all her ilittle joibles, but all have erred more or less on the side of the ultra humorous.It has remained for the witty and versatile bicgrapher of John Bull, Pat Sandy, Cou- sir Jonathan and Jacques Bonhomme to froduce a lecture which is as many- sided in its view of the sublect as is the genius of the lecturer himself.He recognizes the position accorded to woman by universal consent in the titie of his lecture, for he humorously styles it : \u201cHer Royal Highress Woman.\u201d When M.Blouet, more widely knowm as Max O'Rell, stcpred on to the platform of the Windsor Hall last night to deliver this lecture, there could be no mistake about the cordiality of his welcome.It is several years since he ap- peared here before, but the memory of: the tectures with which he then delighted large audiences has not yet grown dim, The large hall was filled with a most appreciative audience, between the lecturer and whom there was quickly established a bond of sympathy which strenghtened as the evening advanced, M.Blouet concedes an equal appreciativeness to American as to European houses, but in an interview yesterday stated that he did not find them, ag.~gemonstrative.The, audience last nigh\u2019 was too well-Bred to| he noisely demonstrative, but it responded to the good points made by the lecturer with a spontaneous heartiness that could have left nothing to be desired.ttHer Royal Highness was present in such numbers as to constitute the majority of the audience, and she enjoyed herself, and keenly enjoyed the description of herself which was given.There was more than a trace of self-satisfac- ney or the stocking-foot.\u201d A high eu- during the war of 1870 concluded the first part of tbe lecture.Of American wen he said that, after travelling all over [ie country, he came to the conclusion that those foreigners were right who said that the typical American does not exist, But though Jonathan does not exist as a type, Mrs.Jonathan does.\u2018The\u2019 American woman has the softest berth I know.If I were to be born again, and could choose my sex, I would cry at my loudest \u2018Let me be born an American woman.\u201d The American girl, even in Boston, has a latchkey, and an amount of liberty unknown elsewhere.This is possible because of the character of the American girl, That which makes the American woman woman a type is her naturalness and abscence of affectation.He related an anecdote of an Ameri- cun girl in Boston who, in the same breath with a minute account of a bonnet, turned to him and gave hima concise and scholarly account of Renan\u2019s \u201cHistory of the Jews.\u201d The American.girl is lively, hearty, and enjoysa good appetite.No man can tell what & woman is till he meets her inadversity.No head is so clear in such times as a woman.In an cloquent peroration M.Blouet concluded what will be admitted by all to be his most brilliant lecture, ; Some of the gemsof the lecture which deserve to be embalmed in print are given herewith: X \u2018Woman ig interesting.\u201d saidthelecturer, \u2018interesting both to men and women, Man is an uninteresting animal, and I can find nothing in him to lecture about.Woman is on a pedestal, where she is respected and admired, and I want to keep her there.She is: a royal highness but ouly in two countries, America and France.Beneath the smiles I may call forth I seek to impress upon vou the thought of greater respect to her, greater love, greater reverence.This can come with smiles as well ag any other way\u201d \u201cYou won't hear anything to-night about the new woman,the coming woman, the advanced woman, or any other sort of woman nuisance.\u201d \u2018If we look back to the dawn of the world and of history we see that woman was a great power.1 will not talk about antiquity, however, but about woman.\u201d \u201cIfIwerean American there is nothing I would be so proud of ag the safety with which your women can go where they will, not only by day hut after dark.It is the character of the American women that makesthis a possibility.\u201d \u201cLam compelled to affirm that the most vulgar of Americans is superior to refined léuropeans in point of the politeness and respect shown to women.An American steps to one side to allow a woman to pass, and lowers his eyes as he does so.The European gives way and removes his hat, but he takes the opportunity to peer into her face us she passes\u201d, \u201cWoman took the large parts in the first great drama of the world; the snake played the villain; and the man played the fool.\u201d *\u2018In the Vedas the story of the creation is told, but the man takes the blame like a nian and a gentleman.Before any Court of Justice I would swear lies by the day and by the mile to shield a woman\u2014especi- ally if I took any interest in her,\u201d § \u2018English women are remarkable for their fresh complexicn, sweet features, beautiful aud stately figures, and sometimes for the length of their fest\u2014which reminds us that in England twelve inches gn to the foot.Canadian women, of whom I know very little, seem£ to be n happy combination of the best in the English and American women.She seems to me to have succeeded in keeping all the fresh complexion of the old country, and the vivacity and animation of face of her American cousin on the other side of the Falls.But of ull countries I have visited I have only discovered two, France and America, where men are in leading strings and women are the leaders.\u201d ; \u201cTrue love may stand curl-papérs, but it has to be awfully true.\u201d \u201cI think I know a little more about the French women than the British tourist\u2014 the Cookist.\u201d \u201cThe English girl says money is round and made Lo roll ; the French girl that it is flat and made to pile up.The Trench servant girl puts her money in the bank.The English maid buys a new hat, and gets photographed in it.I won't even mention the ladies who are kind enough to act as helps in America.They always remind me tion visible\u2019 too, at the many culogis- the remarks which fell from the lecturer's lips.The subject-matter of the lecture nes.At a few points it is reminiscent of the popular books of M.Blouet,, but it is, as a whole entirely novel.The matertil.fox it has been gathered Ty civse observation of woman in England, France, and America.#nd let it be noted in passing that Max O'Rell never uses any other word than the simple Anglo-Saxon \u201cwoman.\u201d Wit and philosophy are mixed in judicious proportions, | former delights by its brilliamcy, the latter winks info the mira.The wit is scintillating.Every other sentence is a sparkling aphorism, clear-cut and epigrammatic in form, No description can convey an idea of how these were delivered.*The lecturer's manner, gestures and intonations heighten the charm of his words.He is thoroughly French in manner.Expressive and while the shoulder-shrugs, quaint \u201cmoues,\u201d tricks of voice and facial expression are all called in to his aid, There was not a dull moment.In opening his lecture he referred to; least | the French as the nation caring to know about foreigners, but still not hating them.They had a good opinion of \u2018themselves, and that was sufficient.When he first made up his mind to come to America his mother wrote to him : \u2018There must be something the matter with you; come to see me at once.\u201d She asked him if they spoke English there, and he replied, *'Well, yes, mother, fairly well, After having humorously described the origin of the high handshake, horn June 10th, 1890, and its travels round the world, he told of French women.In Frnnce woman is the queen of the household, ruler of her husband and children, and her rule is ever questioned.She {.the friend and confidante of her husband, knows all his business and helps him to become wealthy.To women is largely due the present prosperity of France.There Her Rcyal Hizhness values the poetry of marriage, dresses to please ber husband, \u2018and keeps awake in him through life the same fe\u20acling with which be fist held her in his arms.The English pcople think poetry ceases at at marriage, ana their ideal où hcme is the hushand in slippers at one side ot the fire and the wife in curl-papers at the other.\u201cWhen a French girl marries she finds her liberiy; when an English girl marries she loses her; when an Amerlenn girl marries she retains bers, When an English-woman\u2019s husband dies she becomes a dowager\u2014that is a woman that was.\u201d The description of a type which the lecturer regretted was passing away, that of Jacqueline, the wife of the peasant, was cloguent and touching, \u201cThe peasant woman is the savior of France, She is hard-workinp, thrifty and sober.She is the personification of industry, and when the winter of life comes on, often she is to be seen near the chimney corner or the door, keeping watch over the little ones, and when she passes out of life it is with the nevdle or distaff in her hands.Not a moment of her life has been spent fn idleness.It is her whe hides the nve.franc pieces in the chim-' J is | of reduced duchesses.\u201d \u201cAmerican girls at eighteen are allowed all the liberties; they take the others.\u201d , \u201cMrs.Jonathan demands a triumphal arch, and she gots it.\u201d \u201cIn every British colony you cannot go anywhere without meeting the man who writes to the papers\u2014you have them here\u2014 and signs himself \u2018Truth \u2018Fair Play,\u2019 \u2018Observer,\u2019 \u2018Justice,\u2019 or \u2018Pro Bono Publi- co.\u201c Our dukes hepe to get their coats out of pawn by marrying girls whose fathers probably Lad no arms to their coats.\u201d ** Anglo-Saxons are people who will not associate with you till they know who vou are, what your father was, and the history of your grand-father.On board steamer they lie Like mummies, but che American girl eats.\u201d \u201cWoman is the only problem that it will never be given to man to discover.\u201d \u201cNever sneer at love or women.\u201d \u201cThere is no man who is good enough for a good woman,\u201d Wor oo NO NEED OF GOING TO AN INSTITUTION TC BE CURED The Spaulding Remedy for THE : LIQUOR : HABIT Is a Home

Under the Circumstances.Mr.Hammond's strictures on the hygienic condition of the Civic Hospital after the repairs and improvements which have heen executed upon it, formed the subject of interviews by a Herald reporter on Saturday with the medical gentlemen in charge of it.Dr.E.P.Lachapelle, of the Notre Dame Hospital, said: \u2018Personally, I have no reason whatever to take notice of Mr.Hammond's criticism.But as you have come to ask my opinion, I am glad to have the occasion to correct some statements which might leave the public under a false impression.Mr.Hammond, who is a stranger here, must not think that he has made a new discovery, when he says that the hospital is not all that it should be.We are aware of that fact, and it has been generally recognized in this city for years by the medical and by the civic authorities that the building had not been erected in accordance with all the rules of hygiene.\u201cBut we must consider circumstances.Until a few months ago we had no hos- ital for contagious diseases.\u2018The building on Moreau Street, which is now used temporarily, was erected in a hurry in 1886 to mee anemergency, the smallpox epidemic, and since that time it had been cl-sed and uncared for.Patients from epidemic diseases had to be cared for at their homes or in our ordinary hospitals, so that they were a constant danger to the lives of the public at large, and of the other patients, with whom they come in contact.\u201cLast year we found ourselves face to face with a widespread epidemic of scarlatina and diphtheria.Something had to be done, and it had to be done promptly.It was not a question of what we would do but of what we could do.At the instance of the hospital authorities, supported in their demands by the press and by the public, the City Council undertook to fit out the old smallpox hospital so that 1t might receive patients suffering from diphtheria and scarlatina.\u201cThe question of religion had tobe considered.Oné wing was fitted up and lacel under the control of the General Tosgital; the other was placed under our mansgement.\u201cIt was intended then to receive only patients suffering from scarlatina and diph-heria, and the arrangements were made with that object in view.When Mr.Hammond came, suffering from the measles, he was admitted by favor only.There were no wards provided for the treatment of a third discase, and he had to be placed in the part of the building reserved to the administration, so that he can not judge of the accommodation provided for diphtheria and scarlatina patients.\u201cBut for all that I quite agree withhim that the hospital is not modern; that it has many defects.Only it must be remembered that it is not intended to be ermanent.The City Council is now ooking for a site for a mew hospital; plans are being prepared, and in two or three years we hope to be able to show to the critics a building worthy of their steel.\u201cIt is to get over that period only that the hospital was re-opened, and as it is, I believe it is & vast improvement over the condition of affairs which existed previously.\u201cNow, Mr.Hammond criticises the repairs made.As to the electric lights, he says that they should be at the heads of the bed.That is all right when you are building & new hospital.You arrange then to have only one row of beds in a room, But in this old building we had to put two rows of beds in each room, and we had no choice but to place the lights in the centre to distribute it evenly.\u201cAs to the cost of the repairs, Mr.Haromond has evidently no idea of the extent of the work which had to be done.When we took possession of the building the wind coming in through the walls would blew a match out.It was impossible to heat the wards under such circumstances.I ascertained that the walls consisted of a single brick, over which had been laid the wainscoting.The only thing to do was to remove this wainscoting, to put boarding longitudinally all around, and to re-lay the wainscoting over these boards.This had to be done in both wings, each of which is 40 by 100 feet.Down-stairs wainscoting had to be put over the rough stone walls to stop the moisture.As to the drainage, there was a great deal of excavating to be done, and the old pipes had to be replaced by iron ones.The heating apparatus was put in, and a new pavillion was erected to receive smallpox patients in case of an emergency.A good deal of this work does not appear on the surface.*\u201cWe have done the best, and the proof of it is that Mr.Hammond has nothing to suggest but the erection of a series of pavillions.That is a serious matter.It meant a vast expenditure of money on a building the construction of which Mr.Hammond himself declares to be very bad.The ublic must not be needlessly alarmed.f there are many cities which are better equipped in this respect than we are, there are many others which are worse off.Besides the authorities are awake and they intend to make all required improvements as fast as circumstances will allow.\u201d Dr.Ridley McKenzie, of the General Hospital said: \u201cI have no answer to make.Of course we know it is not a silver-plated hospital.But the plumbing is fair, and is new in some parts.There is no system of ventilation, but while that would be a very serious defect in a congested district, it is very different when you have a building in the centre of fields.On the north side you can open a window and get the fresh air blowing across the fields.There is not a house in sight.We are satisfied to open up our section.and the patients there will be sufficiently isolated, aud will get good treatment.Heretofore, we had to look after the patients suffering from coutagious diseases here, and we feel quite relieved.The city is ina much better position than it wasa year 0.\u201cMr.Hammond is surprisedjnot tohave found a place where he could get treatment in a private ward.If he had been in New York, he would likely have to go to Blackwell's Island, and to take a bed in the public wards.The expeuse connected with private wards would be enormous, and here in Montreal you would not be allowed to start an institution of the kind.All the people in the neighborhood would revolt, The build- ing we have now is in a healthy locality, and the patients under our charge will receive the most modern treatment.\u201d THE CIVIC HOSPITAL.Mr.Thomas Writes a Letter\u2014_\u2014An Ap- Propristion Asked For.The Health Committee held a special meeting yesterday to receive the report of the visit to the Civic Hospital.Ald.Beausoleil said that all the aldermen who have been there express great satisfaction at the quality of the work done.In connection with that he read the following letter addressed to him by Mr.Wolferstan Thomas.Montreal, 9th March, 1895.My Dear Sir,\u2014I trust you will not consider it an intrusion in my venturing an expression of satisfaction at the near approach to a finality of suitable provision for contagious diseases.Citizens generally who have spokento me in relation to the building and the proposed arrangement of administration are contented.It is not contended that perfection or even an approximation thereto has been reached, but in view of straightened finances they consider the arrangement will suffice for some years to come.To yourself is largely owing the success which has been achieved, backed up as you have been by Dr.Laberge and members of your Committee.For the Montreal General Hospital and myself I heartily thank you for your services, and am, faithfully, F.WOLFERSTAN THOMAS.The question now, continued Ald.Beausoleil, is to dispose of the accounts.Ald.Hurtubise moved that the Committee ask Council for an appropriation of $11,171.80 to pay these accounts.Ald.Turner moved an amendment that the accounts be referred to the sanitary engineer and the city physician.Ald.Beausoleil\u2014The engineer has had nothing to do with the work.Mr.Garth and the doctors who supervised the work certify that it is done in a first-class manner.Ald.Brunet\u2014They do not say anything about prices.I know nothing about it, and I cannot accept the accounts.Ald.Nolan\u2014 What will the engineer and Dr.Laberge know about it.The work 18 done and covered up.Ald.Beausoleil \u20141 don\u2019t see any object for the amendment except the delay, and to give the papers a chance to publish more exaggerations.The vote being taken, the amendment was lost, Ald.Nolan, Hurtubise and Leclerc voting in the negative, and Ald.Turner and Brunet in the affirmative.Ald.Lyall was absent.The mam motion was adopted on the same division.It was then unanimously agreed to ask for $200 to put the electric lights in the Protestant wing of the Hospital.MONTREAL OPERATIC CLUB.The Cast for \u201clolanthe\u201d pleted, The Montreal Operatic Club have completed their cas\u2019 for \u201cIolanthe\u201d by the engagement of Mr.Clayton C.Ferguson, the well-known New York tenor, for the part of Lord Tolloller.Mr.Ferguson arrives in Montreal Monday and devotes next week to rehearsals with the club.Mr.Ferguson has a voice of exceptional quality and has made a reputation for himself in oratoric work as well as opera.Mr.Rochester, stage manager of the club, says that *\u2018Iolanthe\u201d could be put on next week with complete success but nightly rehearsals are to be held next week for the purpose of perfecting the stage business.The male chorus of the club this year is, it is claimed, the best that has ever been seen on a Montreal stage.Now Come THE ASSIZES.Eugene Flynn Arraigned-A Pica of Not Guilty Entered.Judge Baby re-opened the Court of Queen's Bench yesterday sharp at ten 0 :lock.The first business done was the arraigning of Eugene P.Flynn, ex G.T.R.detective, against whom the Grand Jury on Saturday had brought ina true bill for perjury.The accused was on hand and on his appearance in the dock he feebly remarked \u2018not guilty\u201d to the charge laid against him.Mr.W.A, Weir asked for a renewal of bail, at the same time producing a doctor's certificate to the effect that a detention in jail at the present time would endanger the prisoner\u2019s life.The Judge, after reading the certificate, -agreed to allow the accused out on bail, but the amount must be increased.The former bail was only $1,000 all told, but the Judge raised it to $1,200 personal and two sureties of $600 each.John Taylor was placed on trial on a coarge of attempting to rob a man unknown on King Street on the night of December 8th last.This man is one of the gang of four men who were suspected of safe-crack.wg, and who were being shadowed by Detective Carpenter on the night in question, Three of the men were arrested, but two of them escaped later, while being taken from the Police Court to the prison van.The prisoner was defended by Philip Sheridan.Constable Daigneault told the story of the occurrence.While at the corner of King and William Streets he saw the four men approach an old man.The prisoner held him and gagged him, while the others seemed to be going through his pockets.Constable Curran, Alphonse Hamelin, and Albert Lowe, corroborated this evidence Mr.Sheridan submitted that the offence of attempt to rob was not an offence within the meaning of the statute, His Honor replied that he would reserve the point of law for the full bench, and instructed the jury to bring in a verdict of guilty, which was done.The legal point will be argued on the 15th instant.Before the adjournment Mr.Weir returned to court and informed His Honor that he could not raise the amount of bail required for Flynn, and asked for an early trial.Crown Prosecutor Quinn promised to bring it on on Wednesday morning if possible.COMMERCIAL BANK CASE, The Court of Queen's Bench of Manitoba, in ordering the winding up of the affairs of the Commercial Bank of Manitoba, ordered also that Mr Duncan McArthur, of the district of Montreal, pay to the liquidator of the Commercial Bank the sum of $102,960, the amount of certain shares.The Superior Court has rendered this order of the Manitoba Courts executory in this Province, and an execution was issued yesterday against the goods and chattels of Mr.MeArthur for the sum of $102,960, TO TRY AND RELEASE FAHEY.Another effort is being made to secure the release of Fahey from the St.Vincent de Paul Penitentiary.The ex-detective is undoubtedly ill, but not nearly so bad as his friends have given out.The renewed effort will likely be made in the shape of a petition which it is thought many well-known citizens will sign.THE OXFORD CAFE, UNIVERSITY STREET, is the place for stall-fed Mal- peque Oysters, bleeding fresh, 25¢ a dozen.Lunch from 12 till

three elements of novelty, instruction and entertainment, the Food Fair which will commence at Windsor Hall on Aprit 15th, cannot fail to at once become popuiar with the thrifty and progressive housewife.Food Fairs are something of a novelty in Canada.It is but a few years since the Pioneer Food Exposition was held in Madison Square Garden, New York.America leads the world in the production of food products and the Food Expositions are the natural outgrowth of progress and develop: ment.A model cooking school is to be an 1m- portant feature of the exposition, All of the latest culinary appliances will be at hand and competent chefs will give daily lectures, illustrated by practical work on the preparation of inexpensive but appetizing meals and dishes.Miss Emma F.Ithell, of New York, with assistants, has been engaged to give a series of lectures upon the advantages to be derived by scientific cooking and the relations of different foods to health.There will be special features to which the nurses of every school and hospital will be invited, treating of foods especially adapted to the sickroom.Other lectures will be given daily, instructing the housewife in the preparation of appetizing yet inexpensive meals for small families.A model kitchen will be constructed and furnished by F.H.Barr, of Montreal, wherein the lectures will be given and de- monstruted.The visitors taste the food, learn how it was prepared for the table, and upon passing ameng the booths, they are presented with generous samples with which they may experiment with in their own kitchens, During the Food Fair at Washingtou, D.C., the lectures were attended by such prominent women as Mrs, Carlisle, Mrs.Gresham, Mrs.Cleveland, Mrs.Brice, Mrs.Bissell, Mrs.Hoke Smith, Mrs, Horton, Miss Leiter, and Lady Heury Somerset.These ladies took a yreat interest in the Fair as a number of charities received benefits of which they were patrons.Mrs, Car- lisle, the wife of the Honorable Secretar of the Treasury, Mrs.President Cleveland, Miss Leiter and several other ladies, the wives of the Cabinet officers and Senators, gave practical demonstrations in the mode! kitchen on the days of the benefit in which they were interested.The success to these benefits were enormous owing to the interest taken in them by these ladies as it was considered quite unique to see them don apron and cap and turn out dainty dishes fit for kings, There will be concerts every afternoon and evening, and other attractions varying from day to day.The Food Fair is held under the auspices of the Wholesale and Retail Grocers\u2019 Associations of Montreal, many of whom will have exhibits at the hall, Among the special features will be cash prizes offered for the best baked loaf of read, cake, biscuit, ete, as well as candies.After the prizes are awarded by a com- mittes of local ladies, the different articles will be sent to Orphan Schools.Grocers\u2019 Associations from ali over Canada and the Dominion Commercial Travellzrs\u2019 Association will be invited to attend on certain days.The success of the Montreal Food Fair is already assured from the number of its spaces already reserved by the leading Canadian manufacturers of food products.BEATIN VS.THE PROIHONOTARY.Alfred Beatin sued the Prothonotary of the District of Montreal, Hon.A.Turcotte, for the amount of a judgment, which Beatin sought to obtain from a defendant named Netter, whom he had caused to be arrested in virtue of a writ of capias.When Netter was arrested the Prothono- tary allowed him to depart after he had furnished bail that he would not leave the country.lt was alleged that the surety offered was insolvent.The Prothonotary alleged on his part that he accepted the surety, after subjecting him to the ordinary investigation in regard to his solvency.Judge Loranger this morning dismissed the action on the ground that it had been prescribed, because iL was not instituted within six months, the delay allowed for taking such proceedings.As the Prothono- tary had acted irregularly, he was not granted his costs.SHIPMAN & GRIFFITH, FUNERAL DIRECTORS & EMBALMERS 2356 ST.CATHERINZ ST.MODERATE CHARGES.ALWAYS OPEN, TELEPHONE 300.Before Judge Dugas.Augustin Boder, the ex-Franciscan monk, who at the instance of the Rev.Arthur French, was arrested on Saturday morning by Special Constable Heaney, of No.5 Police Btation, on a charge of obtaining money by false pretences, was the first prisoner before Judge Dugas yesterday.The accused had obtained money from the reverend gentleman on the strength of his being heir to some $63,000 in the old country.He denied having made this statement and was remanded pending an investigation into his antecedents, Leon Miron and Alf.Beausoliel werecharged with stealing some 860 word of dry gnods from the store of Edouard Labelle, St.Henri.The Judge found Miron not guilty.Beausoleil then pleaded guilty and was sentenced to three months\u2019 hard labor.Cheese and Greengoods Pediars.The Market Committee met yesterday to consider the by-law concerning the selling of butter and cheese and greengoods\u2019 pedlars.The secretary was instructed to draw up a concise statement of the petitions presented by the grocers and Butter and Cheese Association, and the Committee will proceed to consider the by-law clause by clause when the statement is ready.Health and vigor maintained by using Adams\u2019 Tutti Frutti.1t strengthens digestion, Refuse imitations.GIBBS MURDER CASE.Buffalo, March 11.\u2014This morning the district attorney moved the

worst mine fire in the anthracite region is now raging in the Hazel slope of the Lehigh Valley Coal Company.When the fire broke out six weeks ago it was at first thought to be of little consequence.The slope was closed shortly afterward.Since then hundreds of thousands of dollars have been spent in efforts to subdue the flames.The chances of getting the fire out in the next six weeks are doubtful, and the probable loss of the company cannot be estimated.BIRTHS.CARDINAL At 729 St.Denis Street, on the 5th instant, the wife of J.T.Cardinal,advocate, of a daughter.DESBARATS\u2014On
