Detective Wilkes Thinks There is Nothing in Ex-Detective Cullen's Story in The Herald.eee meme PONTON'S DRAMATIC REFUSAL.eerie Napanee, Ont., July 29.\u2014(Special.)\u2014The interest in the bank robbery has not subsided any.The trial is set down for Monday, August lst, at 2 p.m.The fact that Ponton refused bail seemed a convincing proof to many of his friends of his innocence, and will, no doubt, be taken advantage of by his counsel as a point in the ultimate proof of his innocence.The Pin- kerbon men allege, however, that they cannot get over the apparent fact that some inside influence was given to the operators who committed the robbery.There is tne fact, they say.that a complete set of burglars\u2019 tools were found which were never used in the job, and which will have to be explained to them elore #hey can be convinced that no help from the inside was given to the perpetrators.Disinterested outsiders hardly share their views, however.The story of Pare is not relied upon, but will have to be corroborated in every detail before being believed by anyone else than the detectives.; Holden has been very reticent in the matter and it remains yet to be told what he knows about the bank rabbery.What Mr.Wilkes Thinks.In conversation with Detective Wilkes as to what he thought of The Herald story about Pare implicating a bank manager in one of his burglaries, he said there was nothing whatever in it, and in bis estimation it was smply to arouse sentiment for the prisoners Ponton and Mackie.Of course, Wiikes knows.A great deal is being said about the Pinkenton detectives in the case, and a feeling that it is a slur on our own Canadian detectives not being connected with the case has got abroad.This, however, is also incorrect, for a Canadian detective has been in, Napanee and vicinity for several months, working on the case in conjunction with the Pinkerton men, but was not known as a detective until the last few days.The fact that it was a cleverly planned and executed burglary is apparent and there have been several detectives besides the Pinkerton men on the job, If they have erred in the matter the authorities will not be slow to condemn them, and their corporation will soon grow into disrepute, and be a worthless institution for the country, while their mistake, if it so proves to Da will only strengthen the young man Ponton\u2019s case against the bank for damages.Today at ten o\u2019clock the four prisoners, Pare, Holden, Ponton and Mackie were brought before Magistrate Daly in a private room in the court house and the formal remand read.The risoners all looked well, es- ially Holden, who appeared very much improved with his week\u2019s incarceration.He was neatly dressed, as were all the other prisoners.The formal proceedings were short, and no word was spoken by the prisoners during the proceedings other than to assent by a nod of the head to the remend which sent them back to the prison until Monday at two o'clock.J.H.Madden was present im the interests of the bank and W.S.Herrington in the interests of the Crown.The proceedings lasted only a few minutes.The next few days will be fully occupied by both the Crown and the defence in getting their case in readiness.At least fifty witnesses will be called by the Crown and in all probability as many more for the defence.An Unexpected Move.Napanee, July 28\u2014(Special)\u2014\u201cI will not leave this gaol until 1 leave it a free man,\u201d said William Ponton in the office of the prison yesterday when he was offered his freedom by the Police Magistrate.Ponton\u2019s attitude upon the bail question was altogether unexpected.His lawyer, Mr.E.Gus.Porter, had without much difficulty secured two bondsmen, who were willing to sign bail bonds for any amount, and had with Lieut.Col.Ponton, the prisoner\u2019s uncle, came down to Napanee for the purpose of effecting his release.Everyone expected to see l\u2019onton free yesteday afternoon.The morning train from Belleville brought Mr.Porter, the lawyer, Messrs.James Cummins and Thomas MeGinnes, the bondsmen for Ponton, and Lieut.-Ool.Ponton.The party immediately proceeded to the office of the Acting Crown Attorney, Mr.Herrington, where the names of the two sureties were submitted.The crown official upon receiving the names sent a telegram to the headquarters of the Dominion Bank, asking as to the rating of the two men, and as to whether they would be good for the sum of 85,- 000 each.An answer in the aflirmative was received and the bail bonds for Ponton were made out.Then a hunt for Magistrate Daly ensued and he was at last found at his house.The bus that was sent for him carried the magistrate to the gaol office, where a little group of.court officials, lawyers and newspaper correspondents awaited him.Upon his arrival he: ordered that William Ponton be brought before him, and in the interim began to sign the bail bonds.Ponton\u2019s Dramatic Refusal.Ponton came in between two gaol guards looking white and thin.The reading of the bail-bonds was rushed through by the Crown Attorney, when Ponton, arising at the conclusion of this formality and turning to his bondsmen, said:\u2014 © \u201cMy family and myself already owe too much to you.I was brought to this gaol by the authorities and 1 will never leave it except as an innocent man.\u201d The little speech was delivered by the prisoner in a low and tremulous voice, but he looked straight at the magistrate and did not flinch when the Crown Attorney, in a matter-of-fact-way, began to gather up Kis papers, Which were strewn over the table, and prepared ta take his departure, \u201cI to.d you, Mr.McGinnis,\u201d continued Ponton, \u201cwhen we were talking over the gaol wall on Saturday night that ! would not accept bail.\u201d \u201cI know you did,\u201d returned MeGinnis, wiping his eyes, \u201cbut 1 thought that you might change your mind.\u201d Magistrate Daly\u201d turned half testily to Ponton, and his face assumed an im- Patient expression as he Jooked at the joung Prisoner, standing fearlessly before im.The boy _ was evidently suffering under great excitement, but he stood like an arrow, until Mr.Cummins, the other bandsman, spoke: \u2014 Remember your mother, boy,\u201d said the warm-hearted Irish merchant of Belleville, *\u2018she is waiting for you at Belleville Station.\u201d - \u201cDon\u2019t you think £ don\u2019t remember my motner every huur of the day,\u201d returned Ponton leaning forward to his friend, and his voice broke as he said it.The situation was a painful one for everyone.Before the magistrate stood the young man, pale but firm.Around him sat his friends, all middle-aged business men, but with tears in their eyes, and in front was the magistrate, a stern, silent man, himself plainly affected by the scene.Ponton himself ended it.He rose and looked towards the &Gor, as if anxious to get to his cell.At the same time the magistrate stood up and the two men involumtarily clasped hands.Then Ponton bowed quickly to the group which sat about the little court, and walked away between Chief Adams and Turnkey Clarke.The young prisoner's lawyer sat apparently dumfounded at the turn proceedings bad taken and filed out of the court with the rest.He had, he said, brought two of the most prominent citi- vens of Delleville down to Napanee to sign the bail bonds for his client, and had never expected such a climax.The party went down to the train, silent and depressed.Mrs, Ponton, mother of the prisoner, had been told to be at the station at Belleville to: meet her son, and the first duty of the lawyer, upon reaching the station, was to send a message to her saying that her boy would not arrive.Then the party left and the incident of Ponton\u2019s refusal to accept favors from the law was closed.The Feeling in the Town.It was with mingled feelings that the people of Napanee received the news.The fact that Mr.Porter has in the last ew days seen his client several times, and that the two -were closeted together for some time this morning, has led to the impression in some minds that the lawyer was not altogether unaware of the stand Ponton would take, and that, in fact, it was arranged that the boy should forfeit a few days\u2019 freedom, in order to strengthen public feeling in his favor.It has been pointed oul that Fonton, although aware of the fact that proceedings looking towards his release were being taken, allowed two business men of Belleville to lose an entire day, with the knowledge that their trip would be useless.Others believed that Ponton\u2019s refusal to accept his freedom means that he is innocent, and that he means what he says.; There was no application for bail for Mackie, and it is said that the other Belleville prisoner\u2019s record prevented any being offered.The date set for the opening of the investigation is Monday next, and the hour is two o\u2019clock.Holden Sends for Counsel.Napanee, Ont,, July 29.\u2014A report is current that Holden has sent out for counsel, and purposes fighting the case.Detectives Wilkes and Sills returned to own

BANQUET TO JUDGE DORON His Honors Late Confreres of the Bar Express their Satisfaction With His Promotion.res SOME GOOD SPEECHES, ess Sir Melbourne Tait and Hon.Mr.Robidoux Make Characteristic Addresses.tomes THOSE WHO WERE PRESENT.eae His Honor, Judge Dorion, the latest acquisition to the ranks of the judiciary in this province, was tendered a banquet at the Windsor last evening, as a mark of the esteem of his late confreres of the Bar, and their satisfaction at his recent merited elevation.The weather was warm, as everybody knows, and a fete champetre would be more suitable to the season than a banquet in a crowded hotel room; but the custom of \u201cdining\u201d a \u201cgood fellow\u201d is a time honored one, and the Bar of Montreal is nothing if not conservative\u2014 in this respect at least.So barristers, young and old, attended last night\u2019s banquet, and it was a distinguished gathering over which His Worship the Mayor found himself called upon to preside.To Mr.Prefontaine\u2019s right sat the hero of the evening, Judge Achille Dorion, and to the left Sir Melbourne Tait, acting chief jue- tice of the Superior Court.Others at tha principal table were

a neatly executed photograph of the new judge.LL Telegrams of regret at inability to attend were read from the Hon.Horace Archambault, Attorney-General, and Tis Honor, Judge Loranger.Toasting the Guest.After the usual loyal toasts, the Mayor proposed the guest of the evening.The presence of members of so many different professions and callings attested to the esteem in which the new judge was held by his fellow-citizens.Good blood coul not lie, and Judge Dorion was a wort y scion of the distinguished family of w te he was a member.The appointment was satisfactory to men of all political par ties, because, although His Honor came of old Liberal shock, he had himee ; pever ctive po > 7 been 5 hat his political\u201d sympa would never be allowed to bias i; ¢ gratifying, in a community

province, his old professor in the Law Faculty of aval University; another had been the Lee intimation from Ottawa of his appointment, and the third had been the invitation to that night\u2019s banquet.He nad not expected such a magnificent affair.He had expected a gathering of his inti mate friends; but he was delighted to find ie number of those was larger than he had thought.He thanked them all for such a testimony of friendship.The position of Judge of the Circuit Court he nad accepted with pleasure, and did not forget the vast amount of work then before him.He had always envied the lot of judges who were sheltered from the trouble of political life.He knew that, as a judge, he would be well respected by .ue Bar.He had practised his profession in different districts in the province, but no where had he found so much fraternity between the lawyers as in Montreal.Here, when an advocate had given his word to a confrere, he would always keep it.He had noticed that, of late, there was less acrimony in the practice of law, and he considered that a great compliment to the Bar.i Gentlemen not belonging to the profes- gion had joined the advocates to congratulate him, and he considered it as very complimentary, and thanked t&ém for so doing.He was also grateful to his Kng- lish-speaking colleagues for their presence, and especially Chief Justice Tait, who had been good enough to leave his home and come and encourage his youngest colleague.; The new judge was again heartily applauded as he sat down, and then fhe Mayor gave the toasts -of the \u201cInvited Guests.\u201d The Other Speeches, Sir Melbourne Tait was the first to re.spend.He thanked the Bar for the enthusiasm with which they greeted his name.He had great pleasure in being present to congratulate his new colleague.The judges had always admired the souad arguments of Mr.Dorion when he had pleaded before them.No doubt the judge would now successfully defend his judz- ments before the parties that would plead before him.(Laughter.) Mr.Dorion was not only a scientific lawyer, but he understood human nature, and the Government ought to be congratulated on his appointment.It was the great privilege of the judges of Montreal that they ever were respected and esteemed by the gentlemen who appeared before them.He congratulated those present on their good feeling, which he attributed to the fact that twenty-four days had elapsed since the last judgment was rendered.(Laughter.) He concluded by thanking every one for their cordial reception to himself, and expressing satistac- tion at the appointment of the new judge.The Hon.Mr.Robidoux next contributed one of those neat little after-dinner speeches for which he has a high reputation.He was delighted to be present and honor Mr.Dorion.He wus delighted to honor Mr.Dorion.He was satisfied that Mr.Dorion would be an impartial judge, for he belonged to a family of judges.tis randfather made laws in Yamachiche; his ather had been a distinguished member of the judiciary, whilst his uncle, the late Sir A.A.Dorion, had left a jurisprudence which would yet be quoted for a long time in our courts of justice.He ended by expressing his utmost confidence in the new judge.Mr.C.B.Carter, Hon.Judges Champagne and Purcell also congratulated the est of the evening, and Hon.Mr.Geot- rion terminated the function by making a capital speech in favor of the junior members of the Bar.During the intervals between the speeches, songs were rendered by Messrs.C.Meunier and J.Morin.AMERICA'S REPLY BEING CONSIDERED President McKinley and His Cabinet Have It Before Them This Afternoon.a THE CONDITIONS OF PEACE Are Now Pretty Well Agreed Upon Except as to the Future of the Philippines, Gr THIS TO BE CONSIDERED LATER.\u2014\u2014\u2014 Washington, July 29.\u2014The Cabinet is in session considering America\u2019s reply to Spain.An answer probably will be made this afternoon.It is certain Spain must give up Cuba and Porto Rico.The Philippines decision not yet finally reached, but the United States will ask à port and some territory.Washington, July 29.\u2014The answer to the Spanish note to be communicated by - this Government now made up for sub- \u2018 mission to the Cabinet, makes the following general terms as America\u2019s conditions | of peace:\u2014 The absolute cession of the Island of Porto Rico.Relinquishment of Spanish Soverignty in Cuba The cession of several islands adjacent to Cuba and Porto Rico, to the United States, leaving the disposition of the Philippines and the other islands in that quarter subject to \u2018future negotiations.The present aim, it is further authoritatively stated, is to establish and maintain a coaling station in the Philippines, with a full adequate land area, ete, in connection therewith, and to build up there an American city, possibly at Manila it sell, America Showing Her Hand.New York, July 29\u2014A special to the Tribune from Washington, says: \u2014 Speculation on the scope and contents of President McKinley's expected reply to Spain\u2019s recent overtures for peace continues active, but so far no hint has reached the public of the real character of the formal answer now in course of preparation.It has been announced in en unofficial way that the President's reply will not be completed in time to be read at the cabinet meeting today, and to be presented to the French ambassador, .ul, it would be by no means surprising if the delivery of the reply, unless it be a merely formal expression of this country\u2019s willingness to listen to any proposition for peace advanced by Spain, should be postponed until next week.With this country\u2019s campaign against the Spanish forces at Manila but half ended, and with the political and milita situation in the Philippines group still absolutely chaotic, the Administration has apparently nothing to gain by anticipating developments there, exposing to the world the views it holds as to the ultimate control and government of the islands, indeqd, the hope is expressed y men of all shades of opinion that if à definite statement is made to the Spanish cabinet of the conditions which the United States deems essential to the restoration of peace, the right will be reserved by this country to deal with the Philippines in the light of the fuller knowledge which will come from the completed conquest and océupation of Man- tla and the whole island of Luzon.Western Merchants Want the Philippines, San Francisco, July 29.\u2014The Merchants\u2019 Association has adopted a resolution petitioning the President to hold and retain the Philippine Islands.Similar action will probably be taken within the next day or two by the Chamber of Commerce and other business organizations.\u2014 Lightning at Work in N ebraska.Red Oak, Neb, July

in time to save the discriminating duty of 23 per cent.are anxiousiy awaiting the news of the arrival of the steamers.The extra duty arises out of the abrogation of the zollverein treaty, which abrogation comes into cffect on \u2018the Ist prox.By the tariff formed under this abrogation, goods manufactured in Belgium and Germany are discriminated against to the extent of 25 per cent.in favor of British-made goods.Several vessels are at present bound for this port carrying goods that are liable to the discriminating tariff if they are not entered at customs not later than Saturday.Until recently it has been the custorn, when there was no danger of loss of revenue, to deposit ships\u2019 manifests at customs before the vessel reached port, and im- A cable received yesterday by the

however, in view about by the coming into effect of the abrogation of the zollverein treaty, the collector of customs at this port, Mr.R.S.White, has issued, with the concurrence of the Commissioner of Customs, instructions that, until otherwise ordered, no ship\u2019s manifest is to be acted upon in the Custom House in connection with entry of goods, until the vessel conveying ihe goods has arrived within the limits of che port.Some of the importers naturally do not quite see it in this light, and the following correspondence, which explains itself, has passcd between the collector and importers :\u2014 Customs, Canada, Montreal, July 28th, Dear Sirs\u2014I beg to acknowledge receipt of your letter dated 27th instant, which reached me this morning, on the subject of the deposit at customs of ship\u2019s manifests for the purpose of enabling im- entry of goods covered thereby.In reply, I have to inform vou that you are quite right in the statement that it has been the general usage to allow importers to work upon these manifests before the arrival of the vessel within the limits of the port, when no danger of loss to the revenue has thereby been occasioned.You are also correctly informed upon the point that, with the knowledge and concurrence of the Commissioner of Customs, I recently issued instructions that, until otherwise ordered, no ship\u2019s manifest was to be acted upon in the Custom House in connection with entry of goods until the vessel conveying the goods had arrived within the limits of the port.This course has been adopted in accordance with a section of the Customs Act, and in order to safeguard the public revenue, as you are doubtless aware, it is a proceeding which yesterday received the sanction of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in the case of the Canada Sugar Refinery Company vs.the Queen.i T am sure I need not argue with yon in view of the provisions of the Customs Act, not merely of the propriety, but the imperative nevessity of the course I have adopted fog the protection of the revenue and the proper administration of the law.Were I to permit importers to work upon the manifest of a vessel bringing continental goods to Canada, in advance of the arrival of the vessel within the limits of the port at which her goods ought to be reported, the consequence at the present time might easily be that goods would be entered at customs, with the connivance of the collector of the port, at a lower rate of duty than is exigible upon their importation as defined in section 150 of the Customs Act.Yours truly, (Signed) R.S.White, Collector.Leeming, Miles & Co., Montreal.Office Montreal Board of Trade, Montreal, 27th July, 1898.R.S.White, Esq., Collector of Customs, Montreal: Sir\u20141t has been represented to the president of this board that a change has recently been made in the time at which ship® manifests become available for customs\u2019 entry, they being now held in abeyance until the vessel is reported as having arrived within the limits of the port.Hitherto the vessel having heen reported inwards in the Lower St.Lawrence, manifests became available for customs entries as soon as deposited with the customs authorities.Owing to the change that takes place on Saturday in the rates of duty on foreign goods, the present arrangement will be very prejudicial to the interests of importers, and the president trusts that under the circumstances the system hitherto in force will be reintroduced.It is also reported that the Customs House is closed on Saturday at 1 o\u2019clock.As this may be a further inconvenience to importers, the president would urge that on Saturday next the office be kept open until 4 p.m.as usual.It is understood that in the United States, under similar circumstances, entries are received up to 12 o\u2019clock at night.I am, Sir, yours obediently, (Signed) J.Stanley Cook, Assistant Secretary.Customs, Canada, Montreal, July 28, 1808.Dear Sir\u2014I

reply, I enclose copy of a letter addressed to Messrs.Leeming, Miles & Co., which, I trust, will be found to contain the information you desire.I have only to add in this connection that the course adopted by me, in conformity with the Law and Regulations of Customs, has been deemed necessarv to the safe-guarding of the public revenue, and that it has the approval of the de- artment.ae respects

WhO Started the Fire Met Death in It, mess LITTLE OR NO INSURANCE, rt Quebec, July 29.\u2014Yesterday afternoon a fire broke out in a stable belonging to Mr.B.A.Scott, of the Roberval saw mills, on the line of the Quebec & Lake St.John Railway, north of this city.In the space of two hours about fifteen houses fell a prey to the flames, and as a result about thirty families, all employed by Mr.Scott, are without shelter.A great nuin- ber of them lost their household effects.The wharves, which are about 300 or 400 feet from the saw mill, have been destroyed.The saw mill is considered to be male from the fire now.A steam fire engine left Quebec dast night by special train, and a special train also left Chicoutimi last night with about seventy-five men, who rendered all possible assistance.A Later Despatch.Quebec, July 29.\u2014(Special.)\u2014Special despatches received here from Roberval about eleven o\u2019clock this morning brought the information that the fire which starz.ed yesterday afternoon about three o'clock was under control, and that Scott's saw mill was safe.The fire, which appears to have started in Mr.A.B.Scotts stable, spread with great rapidity, and in # few minutes a boarding-house and ten other houses were on fire.Mr.Scott at the time was at the Grand Discharge, but he was sent for and arrived up by steamer during the evening.Over two hundred men were kept at work all night, and a number of laborers were also brought from (/hicoutimi by speeial train, and a steam fire engine was sent up with firemen from Quebec.The mill is the property of Mr.Frank Ross, Mr.B.A.Scott only having it under lease.The total oss will be between fifteen and twenty thousand dollars.Thirteen houses, one barn, one stable and a boarding-house were completely destroyed, and a number of the victims have lost all their belongings.The fire is still burning fiercely on the wharves, which will be completely destroyed.Two hundred men have been working all night, and are still working heroically to keep the flames from reaci- ing the mills, and it is likely they will succeed.There has been mo loss of lite nor any serious accident.Loss about $10,000, partly covered by insurance.Another One at French Village.Three Rivers, Que., July 29.\u2014(Special.) \u2014Some eight or ten four-storey woodon houses at French Village were destroyed by fire last night, rendering homeless some twenty-eight families.French Village is situated between Grand Mere and Ste.Flore.The report was that the fire \u2018had occurred at Grand Mere, but such is not the case.The losers are nearly all ot the laboring class.There was little or no insurance on the Property destroyed.[he fire is said to have been caused by a drunken man smoking in a stable, and jt is rumored that

Kuropean powers, with the certdin- ty that its policy will be identical with that of Great Britain and Japan, the Philippine Islands, diplomats here say, are as much of a problem to continental Europe as to the United States, with as great a danger of complications for one as for the other, .Diplomatic friends of Germany in Wash- mgton assert that the fear of interference y her in the prospective peace negotiations 1s groundless.It was pointed out to me today that there is not a German man- of-war in Manila harbor today, and the withdrawal of the fleet stationed in thas harbor some time ago was entirely due, 1t was authoritatively stated, to the arrival of & large American military force, and the certainty that when Manila fell German interests would be safely guarded.A German View.\u201cThis action conclusively shows,\u201d continued my informant, who is a well-in- formed diplomat, \u2018that Germany is willing to leave her subjects and her interests ta the protection of RearAdmiral Dewey end the American soldiers.Before the arrival of troops approhension existed in Germany that the insurgents would capture and loot the city of Manila, perhaps injuring German subjects and their property.\u201cWhile Rear-Admiral Dewey could have destroyed the town with his guns, he might rot have been able to hold the insurgenis in check.The American troops now at {\u2018avite are amply able to take care of the city and the foreign population, and as goon as this was evident all the German warships were withdrawn.; \u201cHad Germany entertained any designs upon the Philippines

Miles will continue his advance on Porto Rico, and Watson will head with his squadron for the shores of Spain.As these extensive movements will cost oy i x ernment, if it delays, must expect to meet the expense when it comes to a settlement.The present disposition of the American Government is to demand no money indemnity from Spain, although it might fairly be questioned whether the small proposed territorial acquisition of Porto Rico and a couple of coaling stations is anything like an ad pense for the half billion dollars expense that the war has imposed upon the United States.From this time on, however the Spaniards are to be held to good faith by imposing upon the many further and additional charges to which the United States is put.FLORISTS\u2019 PICNIC.The Tenth Annual Outing of the Gardeners and Florists Club Held Yeste- day.The tenth\u201cannual picnic, under the auspices of the Gardeners\u2019 and Florists\u2019 Club was held at Isle Gros Bois yesterday, over four hundred of the members and their friends being present.The prize-winners in the various events are as under :\u2014 Race for members over 40\u20141, A.A.Jed great indignation at what he termed uate recom.\u2019 Kirby;

General Wood's energetic administration | of its government.Within a week the custom house has been brought under control, and Colonel Weston has been appointed to manage it.i Last evening the commission appointed to examine the city prison, and deal wich cases of excessive sentences, finished its work.It will-recommend the release of more than forty prisoners, who have been undergoing cruelly harsh punishment for i trivial offences.General Wood\u2019s ordinance regulating the price of bread has given the greatest satisfaction.The shopkeepers were still maintaining the old famine price.Health of the Troops.Washington, D.C., July 29\u2014The War !

The proposed enormous increase in British naval armament invites comparison of the present fighting strengin of (he navies of the world.Comparative tables prepared from information officially compiled by the British Government in response to a parliamentary inquiry make the following showing for the leading powers in the matter of battleships: Tons displace- Number.ment.England +.veer or eeenennnn.33 408,000 France .coer oo eevee.\u2026 19 180,000 Russia.\u2026.\u2026.11 108,000 Germany .een ae 4 39.500 United States.5 48,500 While the combined battleships of France, Russia and, Germany outnumber those of Great Britain by one, their total displacement is 70,000 tons less.In armored and protected cruisers England\u2019s supremacy as a naval power is still further emphasized By the following comparative table : Tons displace- Number.ment.England \u2026.v.2 se 6.97 427,000 France.37 133000 Russia.«+ +.9 59,500 \u20acIMANY.«cs .00 0.16 55,500 United States .16 79.600 Inspection of these comparisons shows that Great vritain is so far ahead in naval armament that no nation can axpect to catch up with her, even though she abandoned for a time her \u201ctwo-power policy.\u201d Comparisons_with other powers, however, shows that wie United States is rapidly assuming a commanding position on the seas.Tne United States are ahead of Germany stand next to Irapce in cruisers, With sn five battleships in active service and eight new ones building and projected, America is in a position to easily claim third place among naval powers.Glasgow University's New Principal.Professor Rohert Herbert Story has been appointed by the Crown to the Prineipal- ship of Glasgow University, vacant by the resignation of Dr.John Caird.Dr.Story has for years been a prominent figure in Scottish ecclesiastical life, and, if for nothing else, Canada has an interest in him because of his brief service as assistant minister in St.Andrew\u2019s Church, Montreal.It was expected by many that Lord Kelvin would be appointed successor to Dr.Caird, but at seventy-seven he was probably not inclined to face new responsibilities.Dr.Story has rendered large service, and while not a unique figure like his predecessor, will not prove unworthy.He was born in 1835.After graduating from Edinburgh, he came out to Canada in 1859 as assistant to the minister of Si.Andrew\u2019s, Montreal.In 1860 he returned to Scotland and succeeded his father in the parish of Roseneath.In 1887 he \u2018fas appointed to the chair of Church History in the University of Glasgow, which position he still holds.He has published several books, \u201cThe Church of Scotland, Past and Present,\u201d \u201cMemoir and Remains of Dr.Robert Lee,\u201d \u201cWilliam Carstares,\u201d and several volumes of sermons and sketches.Dr.Story is one of the pillars of the Scottish Istablishment.\u2014 The Westminster.Mr.Mulock and Penny Postage.The Outlook, London, Eng.in compli menting Air.Mulock on the success of his British mission grows sarcastic regarding the forces he had to overcome:\u2014\"io Mr.Mulock our especial sympathies go our, {or he is here on a mission of high lwmper- tal import.Just as Sir Wilfrid Laurier end Mr.Fielding made Canada a pioneer in the matter ot inter-imperial trade, so Mr.Mulock is intent on making her a pioncer in cheaper Imperial postage, and we wish all power to his elbow.His proposal is that the three-cent per ounce rate, which is now general throughout North America, should be extended to the mother country, in place of the present rate ot five cents per half ounce.That is to say, what now costs 5d would cost only 1 1-2d\u2014 an immense boon to Canadian traders and settlers alike in corresponding with this country.But officialdom, and especially officialdom of the St.Martin\u2019sle-Grand order, blocks the way.Fancy a colony trying off its own bat thus to force the ce of a sacred British department which as withstood for years the importunities of a llenniker-Heaton! The empire must pot thus be indecently hurried by one of its members; the international postal agree- nient forbade, and heaven knows what other obstacles British officialdom did not thrust in the way.And so that last resort of puzzled statesmen\u2014a conference\u2014has come about.All power again to Mr.Mu- lock\u2019a elbow.May his success be only less signal than that of his chief!

proposal, and reached the following decisions :\u2014 \u2026 \u201cPhe absolute surrender of Porto Rico to the United States, | \u201cRecognition of the independence of Cuba.\u201cCession of one of the Ladrone islands to the United States as a coaling station, and the cession to the United States ot at least a coaling station in tue Philip- \u201c pines.\u201d The question undecided is what disposition shall be made of the Philippine !s- lands as a whole.It can be stated hat there is practically no difference of opinion in the Cabinet on the question of the retention of the Philippine Islands as a whole, all the members being opposed to our acquisition of these islands, There has been no decision as to the extent to which the Government will go i its decision respecting the future of these islands, but it is probable that the answer of the President will express the willinz- ness of This Government.to.leave the mat ter of the future government of the Philippines entirely in the hands of a jôint commission to be appointed by this Government and the.Government of Spain.The probability is that the United States will insist upon a guarantee of certain reforms in government in the Philippine ls- alnds.Our answer will make no mention ot money indemnity.Neither will there be any armistice at all.The answer will be in the nature of an ultimatum, and it Spain does not accept it she will fare worse in the future.The mote from Spain, it is said, was a very adroit and equivocal document, from reading whist one would think the only question involved was Cuba.Apparently, Spain might not really have intended getting a direct answer from us, but only to open diplomatic correspondence.The United States will not have any such correspondence, but will make a straightforward statement of its present peace terms for Spain\u2019s acceptance or rejection, making conditions that, under the circumstances, a1?reasonable and even generous.ett BLACK'S BRIDGE IS CARRIED AWAY,

opposite Prince street, was completely carried away this afternoon by the steamer Turret Court.\u2018The Turret Court was coming down the canal, and through some cause unknown just at present she was unable to stop herself.The bow caught the centre of the bridge, and tore it up easily from its fastenings at either end.The bridge now lies some yards from its original place.One end is high on the canal bank; the other in the water.It will be several days before a temporary bridge can be constructed.The Turret Court got out of the accident without a scratch.oFrtunately no person was on the

Afternoon.THE ONE CRITICAL POINT Upon Which the Foreign Policy of the United States So Largely Depends.fart A SPANISH NEWSPAPER SPEAKS re mrs Washington, July 29.\u2014Interest focused this morning on the approaching Cabinet meeting.It was the general expectation that in its results this meeting of the Cabinet would prove to be the most important that has been held, not only during the present, but in many previous Administrations.Upon the nature of the tnswer ao the Spanish overture for peace will depend the whole future policy of the United States, for it would determine whether the nation should now embark upon a policy of world-wide expension or more eautious- 1 ly content itself with expelling the Spanish flag from the Western hemisphere, while at the same time providing what might be in the end ample guarantee for the exten- son of our trade in the East., The Critical Point.All this means in substance thaf in the best judgment of close observers here the one critical (point is the future of the Philippines.As near as can be ascertained from personal inquiry, a clear majority of the Cabinet are disposed to be content with the requirement of a coaling station in the Philippines, allowing Spain to retain the remainder of the group of islands, However, it can be stated that within the last forty-eight hours the President has confined his confidences closely to the Secretary of State, so that the remaining members of the Cabinet entered the White louse to-day with their minds in a receptive condition as to this important proposition.In connection with the peace negotiations, some significance was attached to the fact that the members of the War Board conferred with \"Secretary Long in | his office just before that official left for the Cabinet meeting, While ences are frequent there was a disposition to regard this.particular one ag having a waring on the present negotiations Captain Mahan and the other naval strategists composing this board would be able to give vaulable advice on the strategio value and necessity of coaling stations in the Philippines, Ladrones and other points on the highway to the Orient, \u2019 Secertary Day has a clear idea now

independent, semiofficial newspaper, says oday: \u2019 \u201cWhile the Government \u2018has asked for peace wathout stipulating a preliminary suspension of hostilities, it is supposed that an armistice will be declared so soon as the basis is agreed upon, and pending » definite settlement.The is has not yet been submitted, but among the con.Citions mentioned is one relative to an international conference in London to arrange the future of the Philippine Islands.We do not believe the Americans will propose such a conference because they have no interest in doing so and could not derive any benefit therefrom.Neither is the Spanish Government favorable to such & conference, considering that the negotiations which it has opened directly with the United States are better calculated to secure a good understanding between the two countries.\u201d t is understood that the SIpanish transports Isla de Papay and Isla de Luzon will sail from Cadiz today for Santiago de Cuba, in order to embark the Spanish prisoners of war.The Cabinet Adjourns.Washington, July 29.\u2014The cabinet ad- Journed at 1.30 p.m., to meet again at 3.30 p.m.VEZINA EJECTED BY CITY tr He Had a Lease of the Ground Behind the Chateau and Didn't Want to Leave, An interesting case was tried in the Recorder\u2019s Court this morning.Charles Vezina had rented the grounds at the rear of the Chateau de Ramezay from the Government some time ago.These grounds were used for various purposes.Small shanties, etc., were built upon them.When the Government sold the grounds to the city Mr.Vezina continued as a tenant, having rented the land from the city on a monthly lease.A month\u2019s notice was given Mr.Vezina last June that the lease could not be renewed.Mr.Vezina would not vacate the premises, however, claiming that he had gone to considerable expense in erecting buildings thereon.Suit was entered accordingly for his ejectment, which was granted by the Deputy Recorder, Mr.Desro- siers, this morning.\u2018Lhe corporation will now have to take proceedings to have the buildings demolished.NO CHANGE IN RATES TILL AFTER AUGUST 1, Or Rather Till the Interstate Commerce Commission Concludes Its Session at Chicago.Notwithstanding a number of rumors to the contrary, there will be no change whatever in the railway rate situation until after the investigation of the Interstate Commerce Commission.Until that federal body hears the case of the opposing lines absolutely no rates will be changed.This statement wag confirmed by Trafic Manager MeNicoll, of tha C.P.R., this morning.Mr.@IicNicoll said no move would be made until after the investigation.The trafic manager of the Canadian Pacific further stated: \u2018Repeated efforts have been made to attach the blame for this rate war on the C.P.R.At the Niagara Falls meeting last week it was acknowledged by the representatives present that the C.P.R.differential question was an infinitesimal one compared with the demoralization that exists in rates in the United States itself.The American roads have boen fighting among themselves, \"and are still fighting, Al through this rate war the C.P.R.had insisted on just one thing.That is, that the point In dispute be left to arbitration.\u201d Mr.McNicoll and MF.Reeve will leave tor Chicago to-night.t \u2014\u2014 Collided With a Street Car.A carter named Stenlay, of 634 Wellington street, while driving near the subway, in Point St.Charles, collided with the street car No.343 today.The car was going at a slow rate of speed, how- ever, and though the rg and car were both damaged no ne was hurt._ As announced in The Herald a few wdays ago, the superstructure of Her Majesty\u2019s theatre, Guy street, is nearing completion, and in a few days the roof will be put on.The splendid street-car facilities for reaching Guy street from all parts of the city decided Mr.and Mrs.Murphy in selecting the important corner of Guy and St.Catherine streets for the site oË Her Majesty\u2019s theatre.\"l'heatre- goers can connect with St.Catherine street line from Bleury, St.Lawrence, St.Denis, Amherst, Papineau road and Ontario street cars.Residents of Ste.Cunegonde, St.Henri, Point St.Charles, Griffintown and Lachine can connect with the Guy street line, and be taken directly up to the main entrance of the theatre on Guy street.Residents of Hochejaga, Maison- neuve and the eastern districts can connect with the Windsor and St.Lawrence caus, which pass right by the corner of Guy {and St.Catherine streets.Consequently one does not want better facilities for arriving at the new theatre, owing to the Splendid car service from all parts of the city.Her Majesty\u2019s theatre can be reacn- ed from St.Denis street in less than ten minutes in the street cars.The front of tthe building is seventy feet and extends one hundred and seventy- one feet to the line in rear, with an annex on the north-east corner, ten feet by sixty, in which are located the dressing rooms, chorus room, propenty room and scene room.There are three tiers of dressing rooms.The building ds completely de- tadhed having a lane in rear and on eacn side.The main entrance is in the front on Guy Street and opens into a lobby, beautifully finished with fresco work and mosaic tiling, off which are the manager's offices and box office, drinking fountain and ladies\u2019 toilet rooms on the right, and fireplace, gentlemen\u2019s smoking and toilet rcoms on the left.Passing through three sets of doors one reaches the foyer and the auditorium, which consists of ground floor, divided into the orchestra and parquet, the first gallery or dress circle, and the second gallery, which is divided into family circle (containing all reserved seats, and reached by special stairs from the dress circle and ground floor), and the top gallery, which is reached by stairs from entrances at the side of the building.Each gallery is provided with cloak and toilet rooms for both ladies and gentlemen.The: top gollery is also provided with a smoking room.The chairs in Her Majesty\u2019s Theatre are being specially made.They will be { twenty-two inches wide, which is the widest chair in the market, and which will suit the most corpulent.They will also be beautifully upholstered and provided with hat and cloak racks.The distance between the rows of chairs will be 2 feet 7 1-2 in., and there will be plenty of wide aisles.There will be over a dozen exits in the theatre, so that the entire house can be emptied in less than two minutes.The entire building will be covered inside with asbestos plaster and there will be a sol'd fire wall wath an asbestos curtain between.the stage and the auditonium.There will be also a fire wall between the auditorium and the lobbies im the front of the building.The theatre will be amply supplied with fire escapes, thus guaranteeing the utmost security.° .Phe decorations and draperies will be very rich and are being chosen to match the chairs and tinting.The prevailing color will be terra cotta, thus affording a warm and generous effect to the interior.The style of architecture will be a mixture of \u201cRococo\u201d and Italian Renaissance.HER MAJESTY\u2019S THEATRE.The stage will be thoroughly equipped with all modern appliances.The width of the proscenium openThg will be 34 feet and the heigïñt 32 feet.The height of the stage from the floor to the rigging loft wilt be 65 feet, The depth of the stage trom the foot-lights to the wall in rear will be 45 feet.The distance between girders will be 45 feet, thus enabling the managers to produce the largest shows that are now being played in Europe or America.The dressing rooms open right on to the stage.There will be a dozen sets of beautiful stock scenery, comprising interiors, exteriors, kitchen, prison, woodland and forest scenes.The subject for the drop- curtain is now being selected by the management will be very appropsiate.Underneath the stage is a basement containing trap rooms, supers\u2019 rooms, coal bins, boiler and engineer's rooms and bill room.The stage will be supplied with a beautiful modern electric switch-board, paint-bridge, grooves and fly-galleries, The opening show has already been booked for the first week in November, and will comprise a large troupe of over sixty performers, The Architects.The architects for the building are the famous specialists in theatre-construction, J.B.McEfatrick & Son, of New York, who have built and remodelled over two hundred theatres in America, and who built the big Metropolitan Opera House ia New York and the leading theatres in all the principal cities in the Untied States.Last year they built the beautiful new Russell theatre in Ottawa, which has been much admired by %everal of our, citr zens who visited the Capital City.\u201d Lhis year, besides Her Majesty's theatre, they are also building two theatres, in Al bany, N.Y., and New Orleans, La.Mr.Fuller Claflin is the representative of Mc- Elfatrick & Son in Montreal, and is acting in the capacity of consulting and supervising architect.Mr.Claflin has already become well known and popular in Montreal, and made many friends when he superintended the building of the Russell theatre in Ottawa last year.The Contractors.The contractors for the entire structure are the well-known local firm of Peter Lyall & Sons, wHo have done such fine work already in Montreal as the Canada Life Building, the New York Life, Victoria College and scores of other buildings, public and private, business and rest- dential.The following sub-contractors are working with Mr.Lyall in their dit- ferent departments :\u2014Carpenter work, Mr.Thomas Forde; plumbing, steam- heating and gas-fitting, Mr.A.W.Hughes; electric wiring, Mr.Anderson; laster work (plain and ornamental), Mr.Sohn McLean; iron work, Mr.William Rodden; scenic artist, Mr.P.J.Toomey; roofing, R.G.Reed Co.The Prices.The prices of admission in the new theatre will be 25¢, 35¢, 50¢, 75c and $1; $1.50 will only be charged for the best seats for large musical shows and imported attractions.Thirty-five cents will buy a reserved

There a.BUT WOULD NOT GO AGAIN The Klondike is a Very Much Overrated Country, and the Output is Exaggerated.(\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 WHERE PAPERS COST $5 A COPY r\u2014\u2014r .J.H.Murphy, of St.Bernards, who conneted \u2018one of the earliest Montreal band of gold seekers into the Klondike, has just returned to the east, accompanied by his fellow-argonauts.He arrived in Montreal this morning, and gave a Herald reporter some interesting information regarding the life of the gold-seek- er in the Klondike.The different members of Mr.Murphy\u2019s party were: George Roy, N.Morrow, L.Carrier, J.Gregoire, all of St.Bernards, wand L.Lavoie, of 1178 Sanguinet street, Montreal.Mr.Murphy and ms men left Montreal on the 2nd of March, 1898, going into the Klondike by way of Dyea.They soon located a claim, and while not willing to state just how much they brought down with them, the party all agree that they struck it rich.\u2018\u2018But the Klondike is an overdone country,\u201d said Mr.Murphy.\u201cThere are already too many men in the Yukon, and as time goes on this will get worse.There were over 30,000 men in the country when we left.The reports about the amount of old that will be brought out of the Klondike this summer are very much exaggerated.In fact, everything told about the country is pretty well exaggerated.Tha output for this year will not be over $10, 000,000, in my opinion.The Klondike Midnight Sun, a little newspaper published at Dawson City, figured the thing up, and reckoned the output would be between $18,000,000 to $20,000,000.But | think that is putting it a little too high.\u201cWe went in over Chilkoot Pass and down the Yukon to Dawson City.We were in the country pretty early, and struck a good claim on the \u201cBench\u201d opposite the famous \u2018Sixteen Eldorado\u2019 claim.It was in thie gulch that the early rich finds were made, and we saw some pretty exciting times.The big strike was made on the 17th of March, 1897, and in a very short while the whole country was staked out, right back to the mountains.When we went in Dawson City was one ses + log cabin, and Skagway or Dyea did not exist._ Mr.Murphy said it was March when he heard the first news of the war.Seattle papers, at the time, were grabbed up at $5 apiece.No coin is used in the Klondike, everything being paid in dust.Everyone carries a pair of scales, and change is weighed out.\u201cWe had to pay, during last winter, as high as $2 a pound for flour, and the same price for beans.Supplies were rather scarce last winter, and there was a great deal of Scurvy in camp on account of lack of proper food.\u201d \u2018At Dawson the sun shines twenty- three hours a day in June, and not three hours in September.The coldest weather I saw was 72 degrees below Zero.Yes, that\u2019s prety cold, but it\u2019s not so bad as it sounds.There is no wind, and we can \u20acep quite comfortable.There is plenty of scrub wood all through the country,

charge of selling liquor without a license and was condemned to pay fifty dollars and costs or spend three months än jail.Application was made immediately for a delay during which the prisoner might secure the necessary fifty dollars.The application was granted.During the month\u2019s delay, which had been granted hy the Court, Mr.W.B.Lamb, collector of Inland Revenue, received Instructions from the local government to suspend the sentence.Some hitch seems to have occurred in conveying this intelligence, for, at the end of the allotted time, Meunier, who had not yet paid the fine, was imprisoned.The case was taken before Judge Gill, in the Superior Court, on a writ of habeas corpus.Aftér- hearing the instrue- tion given by the Government he immediately ordered Meunier's liberation.This morning, Mr.Drouin, retained In the case, made application before the magistrate for the execution of the sentence on Meunier.The magistrate refused the application and Mr.Meunier left

1845 he married Kate Trombley, of Prescott, Ont.They were married at St.Ra- phaels, Glengarry county, Ont., by Father McDonald.At that time he was 55 years cld and his wife was 21.Bennett tells the story now, with a great deal of plasure, how he used to hold his wife on his knee when she was a child and tell her father he never would marry until the little girl had grown to womanhood.He says he has used tobacco, both to chew and smoke, since he was 12 years old, and has always used whiskey.He was never sick a day in his life until the winter of 1892 when he had an- attack of the grip.He is

Wanted the Pretty Chestnut Gelding at Any Price, ferry GREAT RACING AT BEL-AIR.There Were Seven Events on the Card and One of Them Was a Steeplechase.ecm OLD DOM PEDRO OUT AGAIN, a But the Aged « Lepper\u201d Couldn't Do Better Than Run Second Through the Field.\u2014_\u2014 As the Bel-Air meeting nçars its close the racing gets better, and the lessees of the track, the Highland Park Racing Association, yesterday excelled themselves, and put up the best card of the meeting.It consisted of six flat events and a steeplechase over the short course, and Mont- realers never in their racing experience have had an opportunity to see such spirited racing.In all, 64 horges started away out cf an original entry list of 76 thor- cughbreds, and each event was a horse race from the flag-fall to the wire.There are but two more racing days in this meeting, and then the horses move away, some to the Saratoga meeting that cpened yesterday, but the majority to Windeor, where the Highland Park Racing Associafion are to conduct another banner meeting, the fifth on their circuit this year.During the two days\u2019 racing yet to be given for Montrealers, the association is going to do their utmost to provide as they have in the past \u201cthe real thing.\u201d The good average attendance at Pcl-Air hes convinced them that homest, clean and epirited horse races are, thoroughly appreciated by the patrons here, and the meetings at that track next year will surpass anything hitherto attempted.The first indication of a gelling race war tcok place yesterday after the third event.In this race Red Monk, the entry of Mr.J P.Dawes, Was an easy winner, and there were several persons around the weighing-in scales that thought his en- tcred price, $500, was away below the right figure.Hughie McCarren was very strong in this belief, and the Scraps entry being ( lis property, he had an option on the horse.When Judge Carter started the auction with \u201cAny advance on $500,\u201d Mir.McCarren hastily replied, \u201c$600.\u201d \u201c8605,\u201d chimed in Mr.Dawes, for he knew he could never get another Red Monk at that price.\u201cMake it $700,\u201d replied Mr.McCarren, and he evidently wanted the horse badly.\u201c$705,\u201d said Mr.Dawes.\u201c$800.\u201d was Mr.McCarren\u2019s next bid, and there was a pause for a minute or 80, bnd the crowd about the grand stand wn commenced to wander towards the Judges\u2019 stand to see the fun.Mr.Dawes went another five spot, but the owner of ps made it $900 immediately.Another boost of #5, and McUar- ren sent the price to an even thousand.| \u201c81,005,\u201d was Mr.Dawes\u2019 last bid, and | Mr.MeCarren turned away apparently satisfied.Judge Carter didn\u2019t take long to knock down the speedy Monk to mis owner, and the sale was over.Instead of making $200 on the race in purse money, it just cost Mr.Dawes $305 for sending his entry into the running, and this without jockey and entrance fee.1t is current gossip around Bel-Air that this 18 not the beginning of the end of tlic selling race war, and as some thoroughbreds have been entered at very low prices more bidding up can be expected before the meeting is over.A SURPRISE STARTS OFF, Every one of the eleven entries in the first event! of the day, a six furlong race for three-year-olds and upwards, made good and faced the starter.\u201cCurly\u201d Brown had a little trouble at the post but the big bunch got away to a goo start after five minutes\u2019 delay.When they got into their strides, Altadena had à head over Dob Leach, with Prince Florist, Yours Truly, Savarin and Albanian well up.The second division was made up of Polydora, Waterproor, Harrington, Horicon and G.R.Long- hurst.Polydora stopped before she got properly going, and Iwas never a contender, while Horicon was nearly lost all the way.The cast off of \u201cJack\u201d McDonald, Albanian, did not seem to have any speed, and ran much worse than the last time out.Prince Florist attempted to stay with leaders, and Starks rode him hard, racing his head off in the first half mile.Waterproof did not count for anything, and the Dawes Himyar gelding was away back at the wire.Al- fadena got away well, but had no spezd, while Harrington showed some improve: ment, but could not stay the distance.S:varin ran a steady race, but had no break of speed in the end, and failed to get within the money.Bob Leach set the pace all the way, and after going to the front, had a length to the good at the head of the stretch.He increased his lead, galloping easily, and won by two lengths.Yours Truly ran well up all the way, ard it looked a sixteenth from home es if he had second money ensily.G.R.Longhurst, however, soon disvelled this idea, for young

the others were strung out as follows :\u2014Ivy Cotta, Tortu- as, Jim Lick, Billy Baker, Matoaka and Canuck, Nothing could be expected ot Matoaka, as this was her first time out and she did not turn out a wonder, but finished last.Tortugas proved to be of no account, and was away back, while J.M.J.ran a furlong and quit.Jim Lick and Billy Baker were not with the front division at any time, and they failed to improve their position.Canuck showed a fair burst of speed on the end, but it was got strong enough to take him within the rst three.Ivy Cotta ran a fair race for a half mile, and looked likely, but she- went to pieces in the last sixteenth.Ca- votte got away running, and went to the front in the first furlong.The filly had a length and a half on the bunch after the first quarter had been negotiated, and she maintained her advantage to the wire, winning easily with lots to spare.Heroics ran an excellent race, and did not as hitherto sulk at any stage of the journey; at the wire he had a length on Fred.Perkins, and got third money in a drive.Per- ins was coming very fast at the end, and had he not swung away out at the turn into the stretch would have got more cf the

in front, and the others trailing along as follows: Sissie Chance, Overella, Sir Arlo, Devault, St.Ives, Woolsey, Watercrest, Onette, Chiquita, and Greenhorn.Bloomer went to the front and soon had three lengths on the bunch.In the stretch she was running strong and looked a winner, but she quit like a dog, and every horse in the race passed her.\u2018oolsey, Greenhorn, St.Ives and Chiquita were

stable, including Wait-aBit, Tokio and Looran, { will go to Windsor.Waut-a-Bit is by Get- { away\u2014Dafll Rosa, sister of Remaaber Me.She has not started yet.lt is to be hoped that Martimas and Laverock will be successful at Saratoga.If the former can defeat Miller, Dr.Fichberg, Frohsinn, Glenheim and other good youngsters in the stakes at Horse Havén, he will have to be reckoned with in the Futurity; but while Martimas has won three stakes in good time, he has not met any any high class youngsters, and it remains to be seen what he can do in the zynpany he will meet at the Spa.He is vertainly a handsome coit, well bred and is owne by a gentleman who deserves to have his colors worn by a high class colt more than any turfman in Canada.The Derwentwater two-year-olds bred by Mr.Hendrie have not had much chance to show what they can do this season, as several of the best of tliem are being reserved for next year\u2019s Queen\u2019s plate.George Hendrie has two good Derwentwaters in Springwells and Yon- dotega, and it looks as if the son of Don- caster will be a success in the stud.BRIGHTON BEACH RACES.New York, July 28.\u2014A poor card, a muddy track and a

Saratoga Racing Association, opened its twenty- seven days\u2019 meeting this afternoon.The weather was fine, the track slow, and the attendance good.Tod Sloane had a mount in each of the five races,

CIRCUIT.Cleveland, Ohio, July 2.\u2014Twelve *thousand people were at the Glenville track this afternoon.Weather fine until three o'clock, when a bad storm came up.In consequence, only two races, the 2.23 trot and 2.08 pace, were started and finished.In the 2.23 Directum Kelly, winner of the M.& M.Stake at Detroit, was a hot favorite, selling in the pools at 100 to 50 against the field.Directum Kelly proved that the confidence in his %as not misplaced, for he won the three heats with ease, finishing the first and second heats six or eight lengths ahead of True Chimes and Belle M., his only competitors.Searen- light was a favorite, 50 to 35, before the first \u2018heat of the 2.08 pace, and he became a greater favorite as the race progressed.He was never headed, and won in straight heats.To-morrow Star Pointer will make two attempts to break his record, and It is expected the 2.05 pacing class will develop a sensation.Summary :\u2014 2.23 class, trotting, purse $2,500\u2014

large number of those who enjoy a half-holiday on iSat- urday.The Nationals and Shamrocks meet on the Shamrock grounds, and the match has caused great interest in the lacrosse world.It will be a game worth witnessing.Providence will play Montreal at the ball park, and the baseball fans will have a good game to repay them for their attendance.The yachting world will be greatly interested in the second of the trial races to decide which of the raters of the Royal St.Lawrence Yacht Club will meet the United States challenger next month.Those interested in rowing will be at the Lachine Boating Club regatta.The old Lachine Club is noted for its fine regattas, and the people along the lake wi:l be out in full force.If you would like to see a good game ot association football, you can take a car to the P.A.A.A.grounds and see Point St.Charles play the Scots.The roads are in good condition for wheeling, all the tennis courts are in full swing, golf links are busy each day, cricketers never

Lost Them.aetna CLAM-DIGGERS WERE THERE Jacklitz Puts Up One of the Finest Games Ever Seen on the Grounds.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 HOW THE TEAMS NOW STAND.prete Springfield Won an Eleven-Inning Game \u2014 Syracuse Beat Buffalo\u2014No Game at Ottawa\u2014National League.pr LOST.r around the ball grounds, nine batting ova.\u2019 Finder will be rewarded with a season tleket if promptly returned to Mr.Charles Dooley.No questions asked.Yes, the batting eyes were lost yesterday, and not only did the fans have the warm weather to worry them, put they passed through the sickly experience of seeing the local team done up brown, or perhaps J should say Braun.For Mr.Braun with the cold, steely eye, the wide, expansive mouth, and the silver top, pitched the ball for keeps.The only excuse there is to offer is that there was a holiday the day before, and one of the leading lights of the team went to the races and captured $13 from he bookies.\u2018 It he had won $14 or $12, or won or lost any old amount but $13, why, the resmit would have been different, but he would win $13, and hence the kibosh on the whole ceremony.But to proceed \u2018with the tale of woé.Mr.Braun had as deadly enemy our star twirler, Dan McFarlan, and while Dan didn\u2019t permit any unnecessary thumping of the ball, the clam-digging visitors, liKewise tail-enders, hit it freely enough to put two men over the plate and win tae game.But, after all, The Sad Part Of It was the painful efforts of our own sluggers to connect with the ball.And how it made the crowd groan to see them try to hit it.The fourth inning alone idespr oom.he son is 2 to 0 against us, and not a single hit had been made from Braun, who was standing up and pitching the ame of his life.oo 8 O\u2019Brien led off the fourth, and died.Bannon died, too.But Shearon Caine along, and raised a cheer by whacking the ball safe.; Chrisham, the Providence catoher, has a glass arm or something, and Shearon tumbling to the fact took the occasion to purloin second.That was not so awfully awful, and the bleachers and grand stand started to rainy & rumpus.Barry was at the bat, and thumped the second ball pitched for a single, and the noise increased in volume by about 100 per cent.Here was the chance of a lifetime, thought the fans, and with Dooley at the bat everything was looking rosy.Daley made four hite in the last Springfield game, and would surely smack it this time.So figured the fans, but Braun had more to say about it than the fans, and he was figuring differently.He let loose a high one, and Dooley swung at it.He repeated the perforia- ance, and so did the \u201cCap.,\u201d and the next thing the fans heard was*Doescher calling \u201cThree 8-t-r-e-a-k-s!\u201d Oh, sad was no name for it, but there were several other equally good chances to tie the score, and the home team fell over them.The ome solitary lonesome came in the fifth, when Jacklitz got his base on balls, took advantage of Chrisham\u2019s glass arm, and came all the way around on a pretty single of Schiebeck\u2019s._ \u201cShy\u201d also had a lovely chance to bat out the game, but the best he could do was to hit an easy one to Braun.There were two men on bases at the time.The clam-diggers got their first run clean enough, but the second was due to errors by Shearon and Bannon.Tommy fell over a hit of Cassady\u2019s, and allowed him to get second on it.Then Shearon muffed Chrisham\u2019s fly in his aax- 1ety to get the ball to the plate to cut off Cassady, but even had he got it, it 1s doubtful if he could have nailed his man.So that is about all there was to it, although I will have to heave a large bouquet at Jacklitz.His throwing to second was the finest seen on the grounds this year.He caught Leahy napping off the base, and nailed Lynch twice in his efforts to get down there.Lynch is one of the best base- runners in the league, yet Schiebeck had the ball on both occasions and stood waii- ing for him.As Sambo Johnsing would say : \u201cMa goodness, but dat Jacklitz boy am c\u2019tainly a wham baby.\u201d furnished deep Providence, AB.R.BH.PO.A.E.Lynch, L£.\u2026\u2026\u2026.0 1 0

Montebel- lo on Saturday last.The L\u2019Orignal team drove to St.Thomas d\u2019Alfred and crossed on a scow to Montebello to play their return match.During the progress of the game several fights took place.In order to make the game a little more exciting, Mr.Belanger, catcher of the Alfred team, was selected as umpire, and did fairly well under the circumstane ces, being compelled on more than one occasion by the local rooters to favor the Montebeïllos.AY the finish of the game the L\u2019Orignal team adjourned to the hotel for supper, after which they were met by a mob surrounding the hotel, and swearing desperately at theip victors.Had it not been for the timely interference by some of the more respecte able class something serious might have happened.Notwithstanding the con tinued interference of the audience, the L\u2019Orignal team won by 8 to 6 and ond innings to spare.The following is the score by innings: \u2014 L'Orignal.11010041x\u20148 Montebello .++.020110020

Jacklitz\u2019s day.He came up four times to bat, got three bases on balls, mada a hit, stole a base, made the only run, threw four men out at second, and made a pretty catch.The man who gets into an argument with the genial Doescher, gets the worst of it.There was a man on the stand yesterday velling at him and making himself generally conspicuous.Jt just took \u201cDoesh\u201d five words to turn

J.Corbett Would Like to Fight the Big Californian Wonder as Soon as Possible.\u201c ?New York, July 20.\u2014George Considine, manager of James J.Corbett, announced yesterday that he was eager to meet Billy Delaney, in order that he might arrange a match between the former champion and James Jeffries, the latest Californian wonder.He thinks Jeffries is entitled to more consideration than Thomas Sharkey, and has about concluded fo ignore \u201cthe sailor\u201d altogether.If a match is arranged, it will be decided three weeks after the go with McCoy.This announcement is of much interest lo the sporting public, as there has been much speculation as to the man he will take on after his fight.with McCoy.Former \u201cPompadour Jim\u201d is a hale and hearty chan, but training doesn\u2019t agree with him any more than it does with lots of others, so he has decided to make the present preparation last him for several set-tos.He is fast getting into shape at Asbury Park, and will be in the condition of his life when the date of the meeting with the clever and ambitious young \u2018\u2018Hoosier\u2019\u2019 arrives.\u201cI think Jeffries is the man for Jim to take on next,\u201d said George Considine yesterday.\u2018He has defeated à number of good heavy-weights, the last of whom was Sharkey, and therefore is entitled to first consideration.Fitzsimmons has acted like a man Nghting for show and time instead of for money, so we will pay no attention to him until he decides to pay serious attention to our offer.When Me does, Cor- bett will meet him.: i \u201cThis is positively the last time Jim will train for a fight, and he will remain in condition all winter.He will meet not one man, but as many as will come up, sign articles and put up money.They will not be taken on promiseuously, however.They must have fought their way up to the point where they are entitled to a showing.As matters now stand, Sharkey must whip Jeffries before Corbett will fake any notice or him.\u201d The training quarters at Asbury Park present a busy scene.James J.is working like a demon and haw an appetite like that of the \u201cTerrible Turk.\u201d He is as happy as a chiid, and says he hopes that all who are in earnest will come to time.He will not act during the coming winter, but will fight.HEALTH IS YOUTH, Disease and Sickness is old age ABBEY'S Effervescent Salt Gives you the

WAR TAX And Sell Exchange in the New York Market at a Discount Under the Grdinary Rate.New York, Jaly 28.\u2014Considerable interest was taken today in foreign exchange banking circles in the sale of Canadian- London sterling exchange in whis city by agents and representatives of Canadian at less than the ordinary market rates for sterling exchange, by reason of its not being subject to United States internal revenue duties of 4 cents for each $100, which is equivaient to a tax\u2019 of $2 on $1,000 Foreign bankers said they were satisfied from their own knowledge that since the tax went into force at least three or four times as much Canadian sterling exchange has been sold in this city compared to the amount usualiv sold be fore July 1st, the date on which the law became operative.They did not believe, however, that it was sold for or by the agents of the four Canadian banks doing business here reg- alarly, but was sold by brokers representing several Canadian banks that have no regular agencies here.CATTLE MARKETS RATHER EASIER.Quite a Heavy Supply of Cattle in the Local Market\u2014Choice Stock Is in Demand.Since Monday cattle cables have failed to show any improvement.The receipts of cattle here yesterday were much larger than on Monday, and notwithstanding the recent unfavorable advices from abroa-l there was a good demand from exporters for good to choice stock; prices for such were fully sustained, but the excessive heat had grides, and prices were fully 1-4e per lb.lower.The oftierings at the East End abattoir were 700 cattle, 400 sheep, 500 lambs, and 300 calves.As stated above the demand for good to choice beeves was good for shipment, and sales were made freely at 4 1-4c to 43-4c.Trade in lower grades was slow, owing to the fact that butchers only bought sufficient to fill actual wants on account of the heat, runsequently the supply was excessive, and some were left over.Good butchers\u2019 stock sold at 3 1-2c to 3 3-4e, fair at 3c to 3 1-4c, and common at 2 1-2¢ per 1b., live weight.The demand for sheep for shipment was only fair at 3c to 3 1-4c, and butchers paid 2 1-2c to 3c per Ib., live weight.An active trade was done in lambs, there being a brisk demand, and prices ruled steady at from $2.50 to $3.50 each.Calves were more plentiful, and prices ruled lower, with a fair demand at from $5 to $8 for good to choice, and at $2 to $4 for common to fair, -_ Bicycle Parties.The Montreal Park and Island Railway have inaugurated something which will please the wheelmen of the city immensely.\u2018They have decided to carry

Through at Brockville Yesterday at Fairly Steady Prices.\\ ' Cheese was apparently quite steady in the country yesterday, with a moderate amount of business.Brockville, Unt., July 28.\u2014(Special.)\u2014At to-day\u2019s cheese board meeting the offerings were 1,878 boXes white and 2,444 colored.The market was of the very dullest char- aétet, and it was with great difSculty that the auctioneer induced the buyers to bid.W.A.Johnston had no competition at ; 7_9-16\u20ac for colored and 7 1-2¢ for white.' He bought 265 boxes colored.The others held for an advance on the curb, and while some got 7 5-8c and a few choice lots ; brought 7 11-16c, the bulk were sold at | the board prices.About 5,000 boxes were sold.The balance are holding in cold storage, probably 2,500 boxes.Kingston, Ont., July 28.\u2014At the cheese board this afternoon 1,400 boxes were boarded; sales, 1,000 at 7 5-8c.LOTS OF FRUIT GOES UNDER THE HAMMER \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 There Has Been a Good Demand for Firm-\u2014Bananes Cheaper.The sales of fruit held at the Montreal Fruit Auction Company\u2019s rooms, from the 22nd to the 28th, by Messrs.Potter & Moin, auctioneers, were as follows: limit of business was ceipts.Bananas were cheaper than last week.Apples sold at $2.95 to $3.Bartlett pears from $1.80 to $1.60; plums, $1.45 to $1.15; water melons, 15¢ to 13c; peaches, $1.40 to $1.03; Georgia peaches, $2.20 to + $2.05.All the fruit was in good condition.Friday, July 22.\u2014670 Carrier's Georgia peaches, 420 boxes plums, 112 boxes California peaches, 232 boxes pears.Monday, July 25-600 bunches bananas, 600 water melons.947 crate tomatoes, 338 guided by the re- boxes oranges (California), 464 boxes pium, 178 boxes peacltes, 1,579 boxes pears, | 40 cases lemons, 37 cases nectarines.Tuesday, July 26.\u201484 bunches bananas, 22 boxes nectarines, 1,218 boxes plums, 1,059 boxes peaches, 364 boxes pears, 70 barrels apples, 19 cases lemons, 8 boxes Georgia peaches.Wednesday, July 27.\u20142 cars California fruit, 359 boxes seedling oranges, 480 boxes Bartlett peurs.Thursday, July 28.\u2014650 bunches bananas, 853 boxes plums, 17 boxes peaches, 1,566 boxes Bartlett pears.Total sales for week ending\u201d July 28: 12,594 packages, and about 1,500 \u201cpackages of assorted fruits.PRODUCE MARKET.ra It Is Difficult to Say Anything About Cheeze -Butter in About the Same Position.( It is pretty hard to Say anythin acourate about the cheess markets these days Lecause it is generally unsettled.It ds understood that color8ed cheese has been placed on the basis of 7 1-8c, but white cheese has also sold at 7 3-de, The idea for eastern makes 1s about 7 3-8¢, while 738 to 7 12 would probably be a fair range.The extreme idea for butter on spot is 1¢ 1-2¢, that is as far as exporters are concerned, but it is understood that relatively more has been advanced in the country.In Western dairy the range 18 13 1-4e to 13 1-2c while Eastern Townships is quoted at 14 1-2c to 15 1-2, À fair trade continues to be done in i egos and the market is moderatély active, | With no change in values to note.We quote: Selected new daid, 12e to 13c; No.l candled stock, 10 1-2c to lle; P.EI, 9 1-2c to 10c; and culls at 8 1-2 to 9c per dozen.; Beans were dull and unchanged at 90c | primes, and at 95c to $1 for ! choice hand-picked, per bushel.The market for honey continues dull and | fetureless.We quote: White clover comb, dark do., 8c to 10c; white strained, 6c to Te, and dark, 4c to 5c.Maple product is neglected and without change.We quote: Syrup, in wood, 4 1-2¢ to 4 3-4c per lb.; and in tins, 45¢ to 50c, as to size.Sugar, 6c to 61-4c per lb.MONTREAL GRAINA Still Strongen Feeling to Oats\u2014 Straight Roller Flour Seems to Be\u2019 Hasier.One of the features of the local market at present is the quite persistent strength to oats which are again quoted a fraction higher.It is understood that business has been done on the basis of 32 1-22, and some holders even decline to sell at that figure.Peas are steady around the basis of 652 in store, but some are asking a8 high as 66c.I'eed barley is steady around 36c to 38c and malting 45c to 50c, while buckwheat is strongly held at 50c to 5lc.Rye is dull around 5lc afloat.There is not a great deal of life to the flour market at present, and in some grades, notably Ontario, the feeling seems to be a shade easier.It is understood that Ontario \u2018millers have offered car | loads on track here as low as $3.85 to $4.00.while $2.10 now seems to be the outside idea for bags.Values are: Spring pateâts.$5: winter patents, $4.25 to $4.50; straight EEE California Stock and Prices Are | The demand for California fruit was | good and prices were fully sustained.The | | rollers, $3.83 to $4.00; Man.atrong bakers\u2019, \\ = = best brands, $4.75; Man.strong bakers\u2019, seconds, $4.25 to $4.40; straight rollers, bags, $1.90 to $2.10.The foregoing figures are.lower than Wwe have been quoting, but they come nearer the actual selling prices.i Business in feed was quiet, owing to the fact that buyers are unable to fill their wants at any price on account of the scarcity.We quote: Ontario winter wheat bran, $13; shorts, $16 per ton in bulk; Manitoba bran, $13; shorts, $15; and mouille, $17 per ton, including bags.There was no'change in the hay market, business being quiet and offerings large.We quote: Shioping hay, $4 to $5; good to choice, No.1, $8 to $9; and No.2, at $5.50 to $7 per ton in car lots.NEW ONTARIO WHEAT A LITTLE STEADIER A Check to the Easier Feeling in the Western Markets\u2014There Is Very Little Doing.Toronto, July 29.\u2014Flour\u2014Straight roller, in barrels, middle freights, are quoted at $3.50 to $3.65; new wheaf flour, 30c to 35¢ lower.\\Vheat\u2014New red winter was a little steadier to-day, with offerings at 66c to 67c west, and hew white at 6ic to 65c.Old red winter, 69c to 7lc north and west.No.1 Manitoba hard, 91e to 92c afloat Fort William.Oats\u2014White quoted at 26¢, high freignt.Barley\u2014Nothing doing, and prices nominal.Buckwheat \u2014 Prices nominal.\u201d Bran\u2014Sells at $8.50 to 89 West, and shorts at $14 west.Corn\u2014Ca- nadian 34c west, and 4lc to 42c on track here.Peas\u2014Quoted around 53c, high freights.Oatmeal\u2014Car lots of rolled oats in bags on track at Toronto $3.60, in barrels $3.70.BIG INCREASE IN MONTREAL CLEARINGS.A Gain Over this Week a Year Ago of $1,829,500 and two Years Ago of $4,628,848.\u2019 The renewed activity in the stock markets the past week is to some extent reflected in the past week\u2019s statement of clearings.They were over $13,680,000, and this is an increase of $1,829,599 over the corresponding week in 1897.The comparative statement is as follows: Clearings.Total for week ending July 28, 1808.$13,686,643 $2,134,327 Corresponding week Balances.of 1897.11,857,044 1,842,575 Corresponding week of 1896.0,062,795 1,345,525 Corresponding week of 1895.9,262,179 1,376,249 Better Than Medicine, Fresh air is better than medicine, and a ride on the Park & Island cars is a wonderful restorative.Any of the following trips would be found enjoyable: Take cars at Victoria avenue (West- mount) or at corner Mount Royal avenûe and Park avenue for Cartierville, St.Laurent, around the Mountains, etc.; 10 minutes service (to Cartiervillé every 20 minutes.)

vulgar sensationalism and mercenary-mindednessy What is clerical malpractice?Uninteresting, unhelpful, untruthful preaching.Against these offences there may be no law in ecclesiastical procedure, but because of them the churches suffer more than they do from the Higher Criticism or from the New Theology.This question, as most other questions relating to the life-service of college graduates, runs back to college life and college influence.But the responsibility of the colleges for the lowering standard cf the professions is too large to be even stated at the tail end of this article.It is a question likely to be pressing for some time, and may be left to simmer for a season.Always a Pleasant Breeze, No matter how warm it is in the city one can always enjoy a pleasant breeze on iae cars of the Park & Island Railway.This is owing to their high speed, especially on the Cartierville line.* Well-Known Unpopularity\u201d is Good.(New York Commercial Advertiser.) The Earl of Minto, Canada's newly selected Governor-General, has the war record of a gallant soldier in Afghanistan and Egypt.What is not less to the purpose, he bears a medal for services as chief of staff in su> pressing the Northwest Rebellion in Canada.This will commend him to the Canadian people, and the well-known unpopularity of the Aberdeen regime makes them all the more disposed to welcome a ruler who has any title to their esteem.Lord Minto is a Liberal, which shows that thera is no poll- tics in the selection.Like most Governors- General of Canada he is a Celt.Lord Duffer- in and Lord Lansdowne were Irish; Lord Lorne, Lord Aberdeen and Lord Minto are Scots.Lord Stanley was the only recent English Governor-General.Most Canadian Premiers of the English-speaking races have also been of Scot or Irish blnod, like Mr.Mackenzie, Sir Jehn Macdonald, Sir Oliver Mowat, Sir John Thomuson and Sir Mackenzie Bowell.The Scottish blood is very strong throughout Canada.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 ee Charges Against Dawson Officials, Vancouver, July 20.\u2014Artist Fripp, of the London Graphic, arrived here to-day from Dawson.He makes grave charges against subordinate officials of the Postal Department at Dawson, alleging they levy tribute before delivering mail.7 ANOTHER CASE OF CANCER CURED.} Let us send you the partictars Our painless method of treating cane-s and timors 3.ensine { Many very \u2018riticalvoses.VWecout ul investigation.H.STOTTSJURY, Bowmanviile, Ont, | ep iQ PEALE REMINGTON SHERIFFS SALES.F.F.\u2014No.968.\u2014Charles Sheppard, Plaintiff, against Louis Paquette, Defendant.Those low of land situate and being in Saint Jean Baptiste Ward, of the City of Montreal, in the District of Montreal, known and designated on the official plan and book of reference of the fnconporated Village of Saint Jean Baptiste, in the County of Hochelaga, District of Montreal, as numbers one hundred and flfty-nine (159) and one hundred ang sixty (160).Saia lots are all official subdivisions of the official lot number six (6), form all onc and the same plot and front on Chambord Street, at Mnotreal aforesald\u2014with buildings\u2019 thereon erected, To be sold at my office, in the City or Montreal, on the EIGHTEENTH day of AUGUST next, at TWO o'clock in the afternoon.ads Zumt La!

gion.The delegates were entertained at à clam-bake at Pointe du Chene yesterday.soncton has perhaps never more strongly demonstrated the fact that it is a railway centre than by the enthusiastic recep- ticn tendered the visiting Knights of the \u2018Throttle at the Opera House on Wednesday evening.Although the weather was extremely warm, the house was packed to the doors by citizens of all classes, and tire cordiality and enthusiasm which marked the reception tendered the different speakers on behalf of the citizens of Mone- ton, of the county and of the province, was a fitting endorsation of the sentiments and words of w&come extended to the visiting representatives of the Brotherhood of Locomotive lingineers and their lady friends.Mayor E.C.Cole opened the proceedings with an address of welcome on behalf of the city, and His Honor Lieut.- Governor McClellan, and the Premier, Hon, H.R.Emerson, followed on belialf of thy province generally.These were acknowledged by Mr.W.B.Prenter, general secretary-treasurer of the Locomouve Engineers\u2019 Insurance Association, and Mr.P.M.Arthur, Grand Chief ergireer.Chief Arthur stated that today the most cordial relations existed between the management of the I.C.R.and the members of the Brotherhood employed thereon.The Brotherhood had some 538 sub-divisions on the continent, and whes ever a division was to be found there would also be found a Brotherhood.Their order had 'been instrumental in giving railway companies a moral, trust worthg.class of men than they could have had, if their organization had never existed.In one vear alone they had expelled from the Brotherhood 172 members for intoxication.The Brotherhood had aimed not only to make their men temperate, but also to teach them to practice economy, and to give their families the benefit of their earnings, educate theip children, and also instead of fooling away their own time, to be gaining knowledge of importance.The whole aim was to improve and promote the members of the organization.At the close of the meeting they were entertainéd at luncheon by the Laides\u2019 Auxiliary of the Y.M.C.A.ext vear\u2019s meeting will be held in
