Marchand and Laurier Governments Passed Legislation Neglected by Their Predecessors.meme A \u201c HERITAGE\u201d rap QUEBEC IS SAFE, Quebec, August 25.\u2014(Spedial.)\u2014In the issue of the Star of the 20th inst.there is a special despatch from Ottawa bearing the same date under the headline \u201cQuebec\u2019s Heritage.\u201d The errors in the despatch are neither few nor small, and the writer is either animated by the desire to throw discredit on the Marchand Governmnt or he is densely ignorant of its achievements.\u201cWho owns the unexplored East?\u2019 is the question asked by the correspondent at the commencement.\u2018No one is able to give an answer,\u201d he adds.Assuming that the correspondent of a responsible paper would be familiar with the legislative acts of his country, or that he would at least possess sufficient intelligence to make ordinary inquiry, such a question can only be attributed to simplicity, for in the statutes of Canada, 61 Vie., cap.3, assented to on the 13th day of June last, the boundaries of the newly soquired territory are minutely described.rrors and mis-statements seem to have an irrestible charm for this correspondent, and critic of the Marchand Government, for he is not able to estimate the area of the territory within 30,000 acres, but this is a trifle.The summit of his absurdity is reached in the paragraph here quoted: \u201cAn order in council was passed by the late Conservative Government transferring all this territory to the lro- vince of Quebec, but Premier Marchand has so far not even taken the trouble to have this order in council ratified,\u201d and again: \u201cMr.Marchand has apparently taken no steps; Sir Wilfrid Laurier, of course, has not moved to give effect to a Conservative order in council, even though it does benefit the province to which he owes his power, and no one can tell to whom the land belongs, or at present obtain anything better than a squatter\u2019s title.\u201d There is, in the language of a well- known writer, something exalted in the innocence and feeble-mindedness of this critic.\u201cOne cannot suspect him of prejudice,\u201d for it would imply a previous acquaintance with his aubject, but he is perhaps entitled to the respect due to honest stupidity.From his point of view it was no doubt a laudable act to point out the assuity of the late Government, but in the light of the facts which are given herewith such assiduity vanishes.On the 13th of November, 1898, the Hon.Mr.Flynn, in a report of the committee of the Executive Council, recommended the acceptance of the description of the northern, north-eastern and northwestern boundaries of the Province of Quebec, a8 contained in the report of the Deputy-Minister of the Interior, dated 20th January, 1896, and in the speech from the throne, one the 18th November, 1896, reference is made to this recommendation in the following words: \u201cI also laced myself in communication with the Federal authorities in reference to the delimitation of the northern boundaries of the Province of Quebec, and I am happy to say that by an order of His Excellency the Governor-General-in-Council, dated the Sth July last, the rightfulness of our claim was admitted, and the territory claimed by my Government or its equivalent wal acknowledged as forming part of the Province of Quebec.\u201d The Government of the Hon.Mr.Flynn was apparently unaware of the procedure required by the British North America Act to give effect to the recommendation above referred to, and the question might still have been asked, \u201cWho owns the unexplored east?\u2019 The Marchand Govein- ment, in assuming the administration of the Province, discovered the error of its predecessor, and immediately set to work to rectify it by introducing a bill respecting the boundaries of the Province, which became law on the 15th day of January, 1898.\u2018This act of the Provincial Legislature was ratified bv the Federal Government by the \u2018act 61 Vie, cap.8, of the statutes of Canada, and thus the question of ownership was definitely settled.The statutes of the Provinse of Quebec or of the Dominion of Canada are not such scarce volumes as to be beyond the reach of a newspaper correspondent, and therefore there appears to be no excuse for the statements in the absurd despatch referred to.The circulation of these facts may perhaps allay the fears of the \u2018\u201crepresenta- ve of a large British syndicate\u201d as to the validity of any title given to these lands by the Government of the Province of Quebec, even if they do not redound to the credit of the author of the special Ottawa despatch.À MARKER INJURED, ne Curious Accident During the Progress of the Ontario Matches Yesterday.Toronto, Ont., August 25.\u2014(S ecial.)\u2014 During the match competition oe terday at the rifle ranges one of the markers named Thomas Walker, in the 12th York Ranges, met with a serious accident.The markers\u2019 work behind a revette wall, which is about four feet higher than their heads.Walker was attending to target No.2 when a stray bullet, with its force considerably spent, hit him on the top of the head.The bullet pierced the scalp, but fortunately glanced off before entering the skull.For a moment Walker was stunned, but recovered shortly.The bullet was picked | up by a companion.It was very much bent, signifying that it must have struck some hard body and rebounded.Whalebone and Klondikers.San Francisco, Aug.25.\u2014The Brunswick has arrived, thirteen days out from St.Michaels via Dutch Harbor, with 2,500 pounds of whalebone and twenty-six passengers from Dawson.Those coming from the Klondike are reticent regard™g the amount of treasure brought down, but the total is not believed to be large.Twelve People Injured.Port Huron, Mich.,, Aug.25.\u2014Twelve persons were more or less seriously in- Jured in a

eo TO SEND MEN TO QUEBEC.Chicago Board of Trade\u2019s Committee on Canal Tolls to Meet to Discuss the Matter.Chicago, Aug.24.\u2014Lloyd J.Smith, chairman of the Transportation Committe |.of the Board of Trade, said last night he would call a meeting of that committee for Thursday next at three o\u2019clock to consider the proposition submitted to them in a communication for the abolition of all tolls, both on freight and tonnage, in vessels passing through the Welland canal, He thought it only fair that Canadian canals should be as free to commerce as our American waterways, and that the tax imposed on vessels on the Welland canal was unjust in itself, as well as ex- orbitant\u2014in some respects almost a prohibitory one.The tax is, he said, too high for much grain in transit to stand it.ln this matter the reciprocity feature should, he believes, be considered.It does not seem friendly\u2019 or just that one country should impose a commercial penalty on the other.While not forecasting the action of his committee, Mr.Smith believed it would make a recommendation for the appointment of a committee from the Board of Trade to attend the Quebec International Commission and memorialize that body on the matter of canal tolls.It may be stated tuat the members of the Board of Trade are by no means unanimous on the question of abolishing the tolls on the Welland Canal: There are some interests, and not a few, said to be opposed to the scheme.Shippers interested iu Buffalo, Erie, Port Huron, Fair port and other points as vessel terminals, will not readily agree to have grain consignments divdrted from them.Rail road corporations which have fleets of steamers running in connection with their lines are liable to be hostile, and those Interested in elevators on the lower lakes may also be expected not to take kindly to the project.The big treighters cannot go through the Canadian canals, and it is not to be supposed their owners are concerned in what may become of the smaller vessels.The Transportation Commtttee of the Board of Trade consists of the following members: Lloyd J.Smith, R.P.Fish, ED.Jones, H.W.Rogers, P.C.Naclyon, B.A.Eckart, and IRISH CONVENTION HERE.Societies in Canada to Meet in Montreal Next Year-Disbanding of \u201898 Centenary Association.The final meeting of the °98 Centenary Association was held last evening in the Hibernian Hall, for the purpose of hearing the auditor\u2019s report and for the disposal of any surplus that might remain.The report, which} was very satfsfac.tory, showed a large balance on hand, from which the sum of $100 was voted unanimously to the Irish famine fund.After arranging all minor matters, Mr.Frank McCabe, the secretary of the association, was presented with a gold-head- ed cane in recognition of his untiring energies in the service of the association.After unanimously deciding that the records of the association be handed over to the County Board of Directora of the Ancient Order of Hibernians for future preservation, the association disbanded.A meeting of the delegates was afterwards held, at which the following committee was appointed for the purpose of arranging for a convention of the Irish national societies of Canada, to be held in this citv next year: Messrs.Frank McCabe and Michael McCarthy, St.Gabriel's; Wm.Rawley and John Lavelle, St.Patrick\u2019s: Joseph O\u2019Brien and Michael Daley, St.Ann\u2019s: Michael Birmingham and Sars- field Fitzpatrick, St.Mary's.A committee was also appointed to make arrangements for a banquet to take place in the Young

A special meeting of the County Board of Directors of the Ancient Order of Hi- bernians was held last evening, in the Hibernian Hall, 2042 Notre Dame street, Mr.William Rawley, county president, in the chair.The meeting was called for the purpose of considring an invitation received from the Hibernian Knights of Portland, Maine, inviting the board of directors to visit that city in company with the uniformed Hibernian Corps, who are about to visit Portland on Labor Day.The County Board accepted the invitation, and also issued an invitation to as many members of the order here as can go.Complete arrangements have been made for the excursion, which will leave this city on Saturday afternoon, the 3rd of September, under the auspices of the knights.Upwards of two hundred will visit Portland.pe Lumber Strike at Rat Portage.Toronto, Aug.25.\u2014(Special.)\u2014Rev.F.P.Tapscott, pastor of the Baptist church, Rat Portage, was in town yesterday.The said serious difficulty was anticipated over the strike of the lumbermen.They demanded $1.75 for a ten-hour day.Their request not being complied with, they went on strike.The manager of the mills offered $1.50 per day for a ten- hour day, but refused to bind himself by a written agreement to that effect, and the offer was ignored.Several attempts have been made to run the mills, but so much police protection was thereby necessary that they had to shut down.Dissatisfied With Salisbury.London, Aug.25.\u2014All thé papers agree that Lord Skolmersdale\u2019s defeat is an ex- ression of the electors\u2019

VERT BAD RECORD More Being Learned About the Clever .Swindler Who Fooled Woodstock People Every Day.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 Woodstock, August 25.\u2014(Special.)\u2014 The most interesting discovery yesterday in the series of events which go to expose the swindle R.L.Middleton was practicing on the people of this district was the faot that the fellow had once been in the employ of the C.P.R.at Toronto in the capacity of timekeeper.He was recognized by a Mr.Cardiff, a Toronto gentleman, who arrived in town yesterday to secure a contract from Middleton.The man\u2019e surprise when he learmed that the railway promoter was in gaol can be imagined.Middleton once told the Toronto people that he had just arrived from England, that he came here to study the American methods of constructing railroads, and when he had mastered this task, he declared he was going to build railways which would be famous, as he would combine the best features in both the English and American systems.As he was a fine, gentlemanly-looking fellow and an entertaining talker, he was employed by the C.P.R., and remained with them some time.He gave his acquaintances (and they were many) to understand that he Bad wealthy relatives.Ome aunt, whom he represented himeelf as having, was worth a million, he said.General Middleton was also, according to his statement, à relative, and, what was more, a friend.Prominent in the Church.He resided in the north-east portion of Toronto, and was very popular in several social circles.He affected religious ten- LAUNCELOT MIDDLETON, Swindler and Alleged Bigamist.dencies, and became a member of the First Unitarian Church on Jarvis street, and soon rose to be considered promiment in the flock He had enough influence among his religious friends to cause a split in the congregation over some affair or other.He then left the church, and it began to be whispered about that he had subscribed $500 to some religious enterprise, but would only honor his signature to the extent of $250.Other uncomplimentary rumors were also circulated to the effect that he was gifted with an imagination which frequently ran away with any early regard for truth which he might have possessed, At last he got such a bad name that he was discharged from the C.P.R.offices.He shortly afterwards left for Niagara Falls.Another Escapade.On the streets of Toronto yesterday it was rumored that Middleton was the same individual who ten years ago, under the name of Dent, put up a scheme to rob Hotelkeeper Matt Evans of $22,000 and Mr.Saker, the King street barber, of $G,- 000.He then claimed to be the promoter of a big fruit farming scheme, which was chimerical in character.He was arrest ed, but jumped his bail and disappeared.Visited by One of His Mothers-in-Law.Middleton is not the same man he was before his arrest.At the gaol he ocu- pies the same cell in which Birchall spent so many hours.If anyone approaches he covers his face, possibly to avoid identification by outside parties.The police have received a letter from a western penitentiary, and a photo of Middleton, who was in 1893 sentenced to three years in that institution for forgery.From indianapolis, Ind., and Richmond, Va., communications have been received, giving some details of the life of Macdonald or Middleton, and the Crown authorities are guarding the information they have.There seems to be another wife now, a lady in Clinton, Ont.This, with Maggie Thomas, of Woodstock: Sarah E.Smith, of Sarnia, and a young lady in Toronto, whose name tre authorities are keeping a secret, makes four wives he will have to account for when the charge of bigamy will be laid against him.It undoubtedly will be before the charge on which he was arrested is disposed of {dentified at Ottawa.Ottawa, Ont., August 23.\u2014The Dominion police have identified R.L.Middleton, the Woodstock railway operator and hig amist, as Alexander McDonald, who last fall obtained from the Interior Depart ment here on false pretences maps and private information regarding the Yukon gold fields.He had nearly succeeded in getting hold of about everything the department had about the matter, when he wag detected through a forged telegram.McDonald was acting for a Boston syndicate.He sent a telegram to them from Cttawa reading as follows :\u2014 \u201cMcDonald has secured everything.\u201d (Signed) \u201cWm.Ogilvie.\u201d An enquiry made here 24 to the genuineness of the telegram led to the quick flight of McDonald.He represented that he was attached to the Washington Geological Service.A photograph which the olice here had of the man was sent to Voodstock, and it was quickly seen that Middleton and McDonald were identical,

Prohibitory Law ?t\u2014\u2014\u2014 - VIEWS OF THE ALLIANCE |J.J.Maclaren, (.C., States That the Question Must be Settled by Dominion at Large, St \u201cAN INTERESTING FEATURE, cerca In a recent interview at Montreal Geo.Bertram, M.P.for Centre Toronto, expressed a doubt as to whether the Federal Government could adopt a prohibitory liquor law and make it operative in the Province of Quebec if the people of this province gave a majority against such a measure.It would be equivalent to coercing the province, in his judgment, Mr.J.J.Maclaren, of Toronto, well known as a temperance worker, was interviewed in reference to Mr.Bertram\u2019s expression of opimion.He stated that he had not anywhere seen the statements attributed to Mr.Bertram; but that in any case Mr.Bertram merely spoke as an individual member of Parliament.On being asked if Mr.Bertram\u2019s views were in line with the public utterances snd pledges of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, Mr.MacLaren said that no such stipulation or condition as that laid down by Mr.Bertram had ever been suggested by the Premier or any Premier's action in submitting the question of prohibition to a plobiscite was logically connected with the previous resolutions of Parliament.Time and again, Mr.MacLaren pointed out, the House of Commons had passed resolutions dt the instance of Mr.Foster, Mr.O.Jamieson and Mr.Flint, committing themselves ta the passage of a prohibitorv measure whenever the country was ready for it.The Government\u2019s Position.The Liberal Government were merely carrying out the spirit of the resolutions mentioned, and were seeking to ascertain whether the country was ready for the enactment of a prohibitory law.If an affirmative enswer were given Parliament was morally bound to pass prohibitory legislation.If any of the provinces shouïd declare against prohibition, or if they should all be found overwhelmingly arrayed against it, Parliament might still lgeally pass a prohibitory measure; but of course our legislators, Mr.MacLaren added, were usually guided by public opinion.In any case Sir Wilfrid Laurier and his colleagues had given no pledge binding them to refuse prohibitory legis lation in the event of an adverse vote by any province.Mr.MacLaren was also asked what attitude the Dominion Alliance would take in case any province should be found op- osed to rohibition.He replied that per- aps he wag hardly warranted in speaking for the Alliance.Yet that body tool the stand that prohibition, to be effectual, must embrace the entire Dominion.The opposition of a single province coyld nof alter the legal or the moral right of Parliament to impose a prohibitery Jawf The provinces were not voting as provinces.Matters were precisely on the same footing as at a general election.Tf the Government had a majority of the whole country the fact that they had the opposition of one or two important provinces did not imply that they were de: feated.In the same way this was a Dominion matter, and even though one or two provinces should be found giving a majority against it, that should not prevent the enactment of a prohibitory law.The two cases were quite analogous.Mr.Carson\u2019s View.\u2018had shown that in some there was .8 Government to fore japon an adverse major \u2018as everyone admits is least an equal right to po Mr.J.H.Carson, secretary of

BLEW OPEN THE SAFE.The Noise of the Explosion Awakened the Villagers, Who Got Up to Investigate.Ly MONTREAL DETECTIVES ON CASE\u2019 a a Thieves broke into the store of Mr.L.P.Lazure, merchant, of St.Remi, yesterday morning, blew open the safe and decamped with $4,900 in notes, drafts and godds, and $170 in cash.The little village of St.Remi is all excitement to-day, as the burglary is considered by them one of the most daring in the history of that district.There were four men éngaged in the deed, but so far as can be learned they are not known.The robbers entered the premises turough a third-story window in the rear by means of a ladder.It was about 1 o'clock in the morning when three men were seen walking about the store, and it is thought that they must have entered about that time.No one lives in the tenement in which Mr.Lazure bas his place of business, so that the thieves were assured of pot being molested.-About o\u2019clock the entire neighborhood Was awakened by the report of a terrible explosion.dt sounded, they say, much the a terrific earthquake.The idea that thieves were perpetrating a crime never suggested ltseir.Shortly after the first ex- p osion was heard a second and third report occurred.People left their houses to see what had happened, but were afraid © enter the store.Mr.Lazure, who lives a mile away from his business, heard the re ort, and had decided to investigate when people came to tell him that burglars were in his store.The three men rushed from the store and gained the car track.There another man, evidently one awaited them.The men had come in a band car.One had been left to watoh the car, whilst the three others got the stuff.It was half past three when the men left, and as it was quite dark then, no one recognized the thieves in the distance.They jumped on the hand car and worked for their lives.They were traced to St.Contant, where it is said they had breakfast in the bush.They left immediately, and were again traced to_St.Philip.Now, however, it is unknown where they are.Mr.Lazure came to the Montreal detective office this morning and related t story to the department.He said that on entering the store he had found everything upset.Valuable articles of all descriptions were stolen.The notes and drafts, which are of no use to the thieves, will be the greatest loss to Mr.Lazure.Five years ago Mr.Lazure\u2019s store was burglarized, but nothing of any conse quence was then stolen.A CELESTIAL SCHEME.A Crown Witness in the Gambling Case Arrested on a Petty Charge.On Tuesday 2 Chinaman, named Meek Soon, living on Victoria ave, Westmount, laid information at the police station of that town to the effectf that a brother Celestial named Lie Ying, of 52 St.Charles Borromee street, had stolen his watch and $2.50.The Westmount police had no difficulty in arresting Lie Ying.Li Ying\u2019e friends got wind of the affair and immediately repaired to Sergeant Detective Campeau, who after hearing the story, took the matter before Mr.Ja- fontaine, the police magistrate, and it was djicided to have thé prisoner brought from Westmount.\u2018 According to the story of the complainant, the accused went to Westmount with some washing, and while Meek Soon\u2019s back was turned he went into the back diying-room and took the watch from a pin bag and helped himself to the money which was in the drawer.There is a rumor that the story has been rranufactured, so as to jail Li Ying, who cution in the recent Chinese gambling of Chinatown vowed vengeance against the three Chinese witnesses who appeared for the Crown in that case.A similar case has also been known to occur across the border where an innocent Chinaman was convicted because he gave evidence against his brother Celestials.A story is concocted, and paid witnesses, it is said, can easily be obtained among Chia- ese, The Chinamen who were found in the alleged gaming house are working against the Crown witnesses, it being rumored that Song Sing will be charged by them with not having paid his pou tax.The Prefontaine Demonstration.The preparations for the Prefontaine demonstration at Longueuil, on the 31st inst, are progressing favorably.The Montreal committee met those who have charge of the organization at Longuenil last evening, Mayor Perreault presided.A torch light procession and fireworks will form part or the programme.At the Longueuil town hall, lunch will be served.Mayor Perréault will declare a civic holiday on that occasion.Ulster Deputation Sails.London, Aug.25.\u2014Upon the sailing of the deputation of the Royal Ulster Yacht Club for New York yesterday, on board the Britannic, Mr.Hugh C.Kelly, secretary of the club, expressed the conviction that they would obtain the fairest conditions in view of recent international events.He said he believed the Americans had forgotten the ill-feeling caused by the last race for the America\u2019s Cup, and anticipated the coming contest as a emonstration of Anglo-American friendship.Beresford Starts for China.London, Aug.25\u2014Rear Admiral Lord Charles Beresford, Conservative member of Parliament for the \u2018city of York, wlio Was recently commissioned by the Associated Chambers of Commerce on a special mission to China, started on his eastern journey this afternoon.Lord Berestord goes to investigate the prospects of commerce and to report particularly as to the extent to which the Chinese Government will guarantee the safety of British capital already invested and of contemplated investments.He will probably be absent

Apples from the Experimental Farm, of THE PRINTING OF REPORTS.es Cowansville, Aug.25 \u2014(Special.) \u2014 The Wednesday afternoon meting of the Pomological Society was well attended, Among those present were a number of ladies and Hon.Judge Lynch, J.C.McCorkill, M.P.P., E.Racicot, Q.C., J.R.Noyes, Esq., Rev.James A.Elliott, Rev.W.Henderson, Rev.R.G.Boville, and other prominent citizens.In the temporary absence of President Dupuis, the chair was taken by the vice- president, Mr.Newman.The Committee on Resolutions brought | in the two following, both of which were | unanimously adopted by the meeting: Resolved, that, in order to ensure the reports of this society being issued more promptly, that the manuscript of the present meeting be arranged with that of the last winter meeting and forwarded to the Government, with a request that it be at once published, and that the same course he adopted hereafter, so that our reports may be issued in the fall or early winter, so that the information contuined in them may be available to the readers for the operations of the following season.Resolved, that this association, having learned that it is the intention ot the Provincial Government to have a collection of our fruits prepared for the Paris Exhibition to be held in 1900, this society is heartily in accord with the.project, and will give all possible assistance in obtaining a collection of both chemically prepared and green fruits that will beea credit to the province of Quebec.The Subjects Discussed.The subjects taken up were all of vital interest, and the debate following each paper showed that the fruit men are not out on a pleasure trip, but with a determination to thresh out disputed points, profit by the experience of their * confreres and add to the general knowledge on questions which it is their special province to\u2019 discuss.\u201cA Few Notes on Asparagus,\u201d by Mr.Norman ¥.Jack, of Chateauguuy Basin, was an exhaustive treatment\u2019 of the sub.Ject from the historical, scientific and practical stahdpoints.Mr.Jack is eminently well qualified to treut on this subject.He makes a specialty of producin asparagus for the Montreal markets an his products are always easy to sell, for he carries his labors not only us far as producing the finest quality of this vegetable possible,but also putting it up in such a shape that it is a pleasure ta the eve of the would-be purchaser.As one the members remarked, the large quantity of asparagus sent tg Montreal from Ontario had no effeet on Mr.Jack\u2019s trade, as the Ontario staff could not be compared with his.Mr.Jack thinks asparagus is a safe crop for the farmer, if he produces a good quality, for it is a good seller, coming, as it does, at a time when other green things are not available.In replv to a question, he stated that he produced hetwen eight and nine thou- gand pounds per acre, and received for it about cight cents per pound.Mr.Jack\u2019s paper contained some valuable recipes as to the preserving of the product.The Fertility of Orchards.Mr.W.Craig, jr., of Abbotsford, took for his subject, \u201cMaintaining the Fertility of the Orchard.\u201d He treated his subject in a thoroughly capable manner, and the advice given to his brother fruit-grow- ers was not theory, but the result of actual experience.The best debate of the meeting was that following Mr.Craig's paper, and it is a pity that every fruit- grower in this district was not present to listen to it.However, the society always arranges for full reports of all proceedings, and these will be carefully edited, and will be printed by the Provincial Government.This is a fact that the interested portion of the publie should bear well in mind, so that when the reports are issued everyone may procure a copy.Mr.Dunlop, the secretary of the society, says that there had been great dissatisfaction over the usual dilatoriness of tha Government In printing the reports, that for 1897 not yet being out, but stated that the new Government had shown a disposition to remedy this, and in all probability the 1898 report will be in the hands%f the members early next winter.Something About Plums, Following Mr.Jack came Mr.Dunlop, with a short but clear and concise paper about plums.What Mr.Dunlop doesn\u2019t krow about this fruit and the conditions that govern its growth in this Province is hardly worth knowing, and in the face of this knowledge and his large experience Mr.Dunlop discourages planters from going largely into this fruit for money-mak- ing purposes.For all that, the subject was an attractive one, and a profitable half-hour was devoted to discussing the gecretary\u2019s manuscript.\u201cKeeping Grapes\u2019 was the subject of an excellent paper by Mr.W.M.Pattison, of Clarenceville, in this county.Mr.Patti- son is an authority on anything pertaining to grapes, which he calls the dictator or the garden and the queen of fruits.The | audience felt satisfied that the directions he gave could he thoroughly relied upan and none of his statements were objected to.\u201cThe Summer\u2019s Observations in the Orchard,\u201d by Mr.R.Hamilton, of Grenville, was a confidential talk to the members, which convinced them that Mr.Hamilton\u2019s observing faculties are well developed, and in listening to him they heard the reasons for many things that had heretofore been inexplicable.Brought to a Close.The meeting was brought to a close last evening.The vice-president was in the chair when the evening session was called to order.He called upon Mr.F.A.Waugh, who had arrived by the evening train, to deliver an address on \u2018\u2018Faclts and Theories Regarding the Pollination of Fruits.\u201d Mr.Waugh is horticulturist at the Vermont State Agricultural College, at Burlington, Vt.He is quite youthful in appearance, but one eoon forgot this when he began to talk, and it was evident that he had not chosen a subject with which he yvas not thoroughly familiar.It was surprising how interesting his remarks were even to those not greatly interested in fruit- culture.On the face of it, the subject is a dry, ecientific one, but it was remarkable how easy it was to understand, a8 of his deductions based on fact and experiment.Dr.Fletcher's Address.The address by Dr.Fletcher, of the Experimental Farm, Ottawa, was not delivered owing to the fact that Dr.Fletcher was not present.The paper by John Craig, of Ithaca, N.Y., was read by Mr.Ww.Craig, of Abbotsford, owing to Mi.John Craig's absence.The programme being brought to a close, Mr.R.W.Shepherd moved that the hear ty thanks of the society be tendered to the Mayor and citizens of Cowansville for their kindness to the members of the society, and especially to the ladies for their attendance during the sessions.Mr.Shepherd remarked that ladies had always taken a great interest in fruit ever since the first man influenced the first woman by means of fruit.He was sure that all the members had much enjoyed their trip here, and were delighted with the beautiful country in which it was situated.Response by the Mayor.The Mayor, Mr.MacKinnon, responded to the vote of thanks, and called upon Hon.Senator Baker to reply for the ladies.\u2018The Senator did so in his own ready, ' pleasant and felicitous manper.N Afterwards a number of the citizens joined the society, the next meeting of which will be held in Montreal next winter.Earlier in the evening tlie committee ap- French variety; Chevey !

but, if the Americans should prove unable to make the insurgents respect the armistice, then the instructions wère to repel by arms any attack upon the Spaniards.Washington, D.C., Aug.25\u2014The representatives of the Cubans in the United States are still making every effort to secure the disbandment of the Cuban forces, and the acquiescence in the policy of the United States in Cuba.Letters are being sent and arguments made to the Cuban leaders pointing out that the interests of the Cubans lie in co-operation with the United States authorities.Little or no information has been received as to what effect those representations will have upon the leaders in Cuba, but 10 is believed that amicable relations can be brought about when the Cubans are persuaded that it is to their interest to accept the situation as the protocol leaves it.Manila, Philippine Islands, Aug.25.\u2014 At a conference yesterday between the insurgents and the Americans the former declared emphatically that they were willing to co-operate with the Americans and to surrender their arms promptly if assured that the islands would remain American or British colonies or under the protectorate of the United States or Great Britain.Otherwise the insurgent leaders asserted they would not dare disarm them, they most positively refuse to do so.They threaten a fresh rebellion within a month if the Americans withdraw.London, Aug.25.\u2014The Times\u2019 Madrid correspondent says: \u2018\u2018\u2019The recent articles in the Times recommending the annexation of the Philippines by America are attracting much attention here.They are regarded as confirming current rumors about a secret agreement between the Cabinets at London and Washington for joint action in the Far Fast.\u201cIn any case, it is feared that the rapprochement which unqupestionably exists contains the germs of great international complications.Three months ago, when Spain suddenly found herself alone, face to face with a powerful antagonist, such a prospect would have been hailed with delight, because it was belicved that In a general embroglio she would he sure to find allies.Now the political situation is better understood, and fears are expressed that in a general conflint of the great powers, whatever the result, Spain would have to pay les potscusses, \u2018El Liberal publishes a significant article in this sense.Trying to forecast the Immediate future, it says: \u201cTwo contingencies are possible\u2014either the great powers will come to an agreement about their respective spheres of influence or there will be a great war, in which Ene- land will play a leading part against Rus- ria and France.In the former case Spain would lose the Philippines, because ihev would be included in the partition.In the latter case, England - would begin by an attempt to get possession of the keys to the Mediterranean, including Ceuta, and the Bealeric Isles, which may be regarded as the key-hole.This possibility of a struggle for naval supremacy in the Mediterranean at some time in the near future gives certain Importance to reports of new forts in the vicinity of Gibraltar, and diplomatic correspondence there anent.Neither Spain nor England, however, can be suppose to have any aggressive designs, and if we read between the lines of.certain very guarded semi-official statements, we must conclude that the Spanish Government has recently received from London some positive assurances on this point.Spain must, it is said, maintain her clementarv rights to national self-defence, but she has at present sufficient diplomatic difficultics on to prevent her creating additional complications.\u201d Washington, D.C., Aug.24\u2014Senator Cushman K.Davis, chairman of the Committee on Foreign Relations, who has been selected as a member of the commission to negotiate terms of peace with Spain, arrived in Washington to-day.He went to the White House very soon after his arrival, and remrined with the President for an hour.The conference was of à preliminary character, and was devoted argely to the great question which the Administration will have to settle, of control of the Philippines.: Senator Davis will temain in Washinæ- \u201con two or three days, and the terms of eace for the American side will be formu- ated as far as possible in the conferences.Which will oceur between the President, the Secretary of State and the chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee.Senator Davis refused absolutely +o discuss with newspaper men any of the questions growing out of the war or tho subjects which might likely come before the commission.Madrid, Aug.24, 3 p.m\u2014 The Queen egent has signed the royal decree convoking the Cortes for September 5.3900000000 © © 9 © 6600000000 & + 3 FAIR TO-MORROW.» _\u2014 ay © Probabilitles \u2014 Local showers and ® thundersforms to-day;

Cemetery, Edinburgh, Scetland, the remains of Mrs.Evans, wife of Mr.Samuel! Evans, V.C., who first served with the 26th Cameronians and subsequently in the 19th Regiment.The deceased came of a military stock, her father, a native of Dumfriesshire, served in the Royal Artillery at Waterloo, and five of her brothers, all older than the deceased, were aiso soldiers.It was as the widow of Private Mc'Nichol, a comrade of her second husband, who was killed at Alma, that the deceased accepted Miss Florence Nightingale\u2019s invitation to serve as a nurse in the hospital at Scutari, the distressing and heartrending scenes witnessed there living vividly in her mind to the ond.Along with other married women of the regiment when in Turkey before it moved to the Crimea she experienced a good deal of hardship and privation.On leaving Scutari Mise Nightingale presented Widow McNichel with a testimonial expressing how much she ap- rreciated her kindly, womanly sympathies and watchful attention on the suffering patients, a document Mrs.Evans regarded with simple, honest pride.From the Patriotic Fund she was awarded 8d per day of a pension as a widow, but on ker entering service 4d of the 8d was stopped, and this small pension she was permitted to enjoy until her death.There never was, and never will be, a universal panacea, in one remedy, for all ills to which flesh is heir\u2014the very nature of many curatives being such that were the germs of other and differently seated diseases rooted in the system of the patient\u2014what would relicve one ill in turn would aggravate the other.We have, however, in .Quinine Wiue, when obtainable in a sound, unadulterated state, a remedy for many and grievous ills.By its gradual and judicious use, the frailest systems are led into convalesence and strength, by the influence which Quinine exerts on Nature\u2019s own restoratives.It relieves the drooping spirits of those with whom a chronic state of morbid despondency and lack of interest in life is a disease, and, by tranquilizing the nerves, disposes to sound amd refreshing sleep\u2014\u2014imparts vigor to the action of the blood, which, being stimulated, courses throughout the veins, strengthening the healthy animal functions of the system, thereby making activity a necessarv result, strengthening the frame, and giving life to the digestive organs, which naturally demand increased substance\u2014result, improved appetite.Northrop & Lyman, of Toronto, have given to the public their superior Quinine Wine at the usual rate, and, gauged by the opinion of scientists, this wine approaches nearost perfection of eny in the market.All druggists sell it.; New St.Jean Baptiste Church.At a meeting of the rate-payers of the parish of St.Jean Baptiste, held lass evening, a committee was appointed to draft a mode of assessment for the construction of the new church.The committee is composed as follows; Churchwardens, G.Leveille, P.Terrault, J.E.Beaudry, Ald.Roy, Messrs.P.Mainville, V.Grenier and G.Lamothe.This morning a mass was chanted in the temporary chapel to ask protection against accidents for the men to be emnloyed in the con- struetion of the new chureh, after waieh the church ground was hlessed and the first stone of the foundation laid immediately after.The City Charter.The new charter of the citv of Montreal, which was published in English some time ago, has been translated into French and was issued in that language on Tuesday.resend, NOT HARD TO ANSWER.Why is sunshine in a damp, musty cellar like Toot Elm in damp, musty shoes?ANS.\u2014They both are purifying and health-giving, FOOT ELM makes shoes wholesome, preserves the lonther, and ssiisies tho purchaser.25 cts.at drag stores or by mail.H.STOTT & JURY, Bowmanville, Ont.1 | EDUCATIONAL.c d'Armes Square, Montreal.Classes will bo ronumed on Monday.Aug.22.Call, write or 809 for prospectus.telephone ee LORD, Principale, MISS CECILE RUSSELL, A.R.C.M., will resume lessons in PIANOFORTE AND HARMONY on and after SEPTEMBER 1ST, at 72 ST.MARK STRENT.à THE MONTREAL BUSINESS COLLEGE, 42 VICTORIA SQUARE, ESTABLISHED 1864 The largest and best equipped Commercial and Shorthand College in Canada.Nine expert teachers.Iudividual instruction.Bookkeeping in all its forms and office work taught by Actual Practice from first day to finish of course.No unreliable memorizing.Shorthand, with 1898 improvements.Typewriting, English and French, by experts.You are invited to call and examine our new methods of teaching old subjects.Office will be opeh August 22rd, sumed on the 29th.Illustrated prospectus mailed free.Telephone 2830.Address, J.D.DAVIS, Principal.QUESEC CITY, CAN, The Leading.Best Equipped and Most Progressive Commercial School in the Dominion.Thorough Business Training, practical courses in Bookkeeping, Penmanship, Short- band, Typewriting, Telegraphy, etc., preparing young people of both sexes to carn their own living.Day and Evening Classes.Individual Instruction.BOARDING DEPARTMENT under direct supervision of the Principal.The only Business College in Canada with first-class boarding accommodations.Terms reasonable.For illustrated prospectus, and other infcr- mation, address BE.J.O'SULLIVAN, C.E,, M.A., Principal, Corner St.John ard Stanislas Streets, Que- bac City, P.Q.AF Graduates assisted to desirable positions.Marriage Licenses Issued.MONEY TO LEND \u2014By_\u2014 Accountant and JOHN M.M.DUE g Commissioner, 170 St.James Streot And 345 Prince Arthur Street.Builders pus Red Pine Lumber and | .Shingles\u2014-Cheap.THROUGH.St, Lawrence Portland Cement Co.2884 Notre Dame St., Montreal.Bell Telephone 8587.A SESSION OF THE COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH (Crown side), holding criminal jupis- diction in and for the DISTRICT OF MONTREAL, will be held in the COURT HOUSE, in the CITY OF MONTREAL, on THURSDAY, the FIRST DAY OF SEPTEMBER NEXT, at TEN o\u2019clock in the forenoon.In consequence, I give PUBLIC NOTICE to all who (ntend to proceed against any prisoners now in the Common Gaol of the said District, and all others that they must be present then and there;

election for the seat in the House of Commons for the | Southport division of Lancashire, S.W., made vacant by the acceptance of Mr.George N.Curzon of the vice-royalty of India, was held yesterday, and resulted in the return of Sir Herbert Naylor-Ley- land (Liberal) by a majority of 272 votes over his Conservative opponent, Lord Skelmersdale.The polling was : Sir Herbert Naylor-Leyland, Liberal, 5,100; Lord Skelmersdale, Conservative, 4,828.Liberal majority, 272.At the last election for the seat Mr.Curzon, in the Conservative interest, wag returned by a majority of 764.The result of the election is a bad defeat for the Government, Mr, Curzon having held the seat since 1886.Peculiar circumstances affected the contest.A see- tion of Liberal-Unionists, headed by the ckairman of the local Unionist Association, declined to support Lord Skelmers- dale on the ground that now that the home rule agitation is dead, there is no longer any need for Liberals to vote for Conservatives.Thereupon, Mr.Chamberlain, Secretary of State for the Colonies, plunged into the fray with a letter urgih the Unionists to vote solidly for Lor Skelmersdale, because home rule was not dead, but only sleeping.The Unionist leaders professed to feel contempt for his \u201clittle Unionist revolt,\u201d the success of which is likely to have important results as regards the relations of the parties in the future.7A LL pg ve I h N 3 i : A Were IEEE i g ez After : the Spin = A=W heel cure dr 9 ¥ = the most invigorating, re- = he {reshing, and thirst-satisfy- = \u201cy ing drink you can

It is amusing to see the consternatio with which the U.S.Jingo newspapers hear the report that a movement exists in Jamaica and Barbados for annexation to the United States.o Disraeli IN à private letter, described t e colonies as a millstone around the neck of England and that is what Jamaica and Barbados are now proving, The demands of their Planters have driven the British Gavern- ment to offer them some kind of bounties on their sugar roduction, bounties which will cost the English people a good deal and which the West Indian planters declare, with much truth, will not help them at all.Really Great Britain should be better off without these islands, and if they could get into the United States their sugar planters would be in clover They could then sell their sugar to our people to the greatest possible advantage as we should no doubt give them a protective duty.One would suppose that a possibility of this kind would appeal to the imperialist Imagination, but for some reason it fails to do so.The Tribune cries out, \u201cNo Jamaican annexation \u201d It admits that the island is a valuable one, would make a fine addition to our do But it \u201csays that fhe idea will mect the coldest kind of discouragement; No reson except that we have islands enough already.\u201d This is a distinctly unpatriotic argument, according to the imperialist standard.It assumes that the virtue and intelligence of the American people will not be equal to the task which they decide to undertake, and all tle charges brought .2gainst those who have deplored the policy of conquest apply :o those who would \"repel the advances of the Jamaicans.Is it because we shoul] not get them by force that be rejected ?they ars to \u201cand main.with for \u2014_\u2014 Good Shooting at Toronto., Toronto, Aug.25.Special.) \u2014Shooting in the extra series matches of the O.R.A.was resumed yesterday.The Corporation of the City of Toronto match began and concluded.Only three possibles were made in the Gordon competition, but the average score was quite up to that of the Gilmour on the opening day.The greatest interest, however, centred around the match of the Corporation of the City of Toronto, in which the best scores that Were ever put on at an O.R.A.meet were made.Capt.Elliott, York Rangers, and ol sap \u2014\u2014 A SIMPLE EXPERIMENT.If your feet are inclined toswent, scald, blister or chate, one hox of FOOT ETM at 25 cts.will give you dallars wor:h of comfort.At drug stores or by mail, STOTT & JURY.Bowmanville, Ont, \u20ac © | FRERALD\u2019S.| Legal Directory ® © es Op © A.E.HARVEY, BCL.ADVOCATE, BARRISTER AND SOLICITOR, TEMPLE BUILDING, ST.JAMES STREET, MONTREAL, Room 58.\u2018Phone 1868.S.W.JACOBS, - ADVOCATE, BARRISTER AND = SOLICITOR, Commissioner for New Brunswick Nova Scotia.NEW YORK LIFE BUILDING, MONTREAL.and \u2014\u2014 CHRYSLER & BETHUNE, BARRISTERS AND SOLICITORS, Parliamentary, Supreme Court and Departmental Agents, 19 AND 20 CENTRAL CHAMBERS, Ottawa, Canada.Francis H.Chrysler, Q.C.C.J.R.Bethune, Solicitors in Exchequer Court.LEITCH & PRINGLE, BARRISTERS, ATTORNEYS-AT-LAW, Solicitors in Chancery, Notaries Public, Ete.CORNWALL, ONT.Jas.Leith, Q.C.R.A.Pringle.GIBBONS, MULKERN & HARPER, : BARRISTERS, SOLICITORS, ETC.Office\u2014Cor.Richmond and Carling Streets, LONDON, ONT.Geo.C.Gibbons, Q.C.Fred.F.Harper.BUCHAN, LAMOTHE & ELLIOTT, ADVOCATES, ETC, CANADA LIFE BLDG, 189 ST.JAMES ST.MONTREAL.P.Mulkern, \u2014 \u201cA.FINLAYSON .A.GRANT, FINLAYSON & GRANT CUSTOM HOUSE BROKERS, Forwarders and Warehousemen.413 to 417 ST.PAUL STREET, Montreal.Bell Tel.1503.P.O.Box.424.MiningStocks QUOTATIONS\u2014AUGUST 25, 1598.1000 Virginia .e 1000 Deer Park .1000 Monte Christo .-.at §1.05 at 2500 Ophir .eee 500 Decca .25 5000 Grand Prize .2 2000 Golden Crown .50 5000 Pay Ore .su.a.03 5000 Giant .L.0000seene nc en 0 nat 07 THE SAWYER COMPANY, 110 St.Francois Xavier Street LIMITED.The Most Perfect Mills in Canada.Keewatin, 2,250 bbls.per day;

we had very serious interests at stake, which we had to guard, and it could be nobody\u2019s business t.pry into the development stages until it was ready to gc te the public.The (lovernments were the only parties who had a right to inquire, and I always referred inquirers to official circles for infor- ation.i mat would not have troubled you with these remarks but for certain ref find in the press, Æncios re From the Daily Mail of the 27th inst.you will find that this paper states: 3 \u2019 & Co., on \u201cBut Messrs, Petersen, Tate on the other side, complain that they ave sen squarely treated.\u201d nO false.We have made no such et tement to the Daily Mail or any other caler nor | we represented ourselves paper, nor have epresented ourselves in that spirit to any individual ther myself harbor ti ny PArthors ve mo fet cause for doing ve have done all human beings could do to carry this business through.I have never worked harder in my life, having been severed from my firm bere for and a half years to work t e fas Line yroject only.Circumstances over which we could have no control went against us, and we were compelled to ive it up.Although the disappointment great and the financial loss to my firm most serious, yet we feel that the Government will realize that we have done our duty by neither sparing ourselves not money to carry the struggle on un stopped by you.Whether this was à judicious step on fhe part of your Government to suddenly eut us off at this juno.ture I will not venture to discuss.My own opinion is that you would not have lost any time by letting us go on till October or November, when we might have been able to concentrate our forces and yet succeed.Be that as it may, your Government had every right to act ee > HERALD BULLETIN ANNOUNCEMENTS.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 The daily use Of « « » Abbey's Cifervescent Salt WILL KEEP YOU IN 600D HEALTH ili lin.| as they did, and I again wish to impress upon you (which kindly convey to your colleagues) that no statement with any different spirit to this appearing In any paper or brought to you verbally, emanates from us.So many statements have been made, and will continue, no doubt, to be made, for which we are not respon- gible, and as it is very difficult to overtake lies, I wish to make this as emphatic as possible, so that you may now how to deal with any \u201cnewspaper hre works._ Whatever the result may be of the future fate of the fast line, all 1 can say is that a more genuine or commerclà y sound and honest scheme than the one or which vour Government granted us he contract will never be produced.;

Neither the Allan Line nor the Dominion Line will say anything definite, as they are in communication with their British houses.When they hear from the other side they will be able to state what kind of service they will be ready to tender for.Of course, one condition they will have to comply with is to make a Canadian port the western terminus, during winter as well as during simmer.BISMARCK'S DOCTOR Tells Some Interesting Things About the Prince's Death.The Bnd Came Because There Was Not Sufficient Air in His Lungs\u2014A Glowing Eulogy.Berlin, Aug.25\u2014Through the medium of his Bliend.Count Von Hoensbruch, editor of the Tagliche Bundschau, Dr.Sch- weninger gives a history of his personal re- {ations with Prince Bismarck, and his illness.Saye Dr.Schweninger: \u201cMy whole thoughts were centered upon the Prince.Now my life seems aimless.My telegram of 27th July was in no sense a lie.lt was directed agatnst the sensational newspaper announcement that the Prince was afilicted with poisoning of the blood.When I telegraphed you the Prince was particularly well.After à Tong menies of sleepless nights he had slept several hours, and he felt fresh and invigorated.He smoked five pipes, one after the other.1 felt no uneudintess in leaving him.He was indeed so well that IT invited him to take champagne after having forbidden him to take any alcoholic drink since March.\u201c \u201cWhat, my dear Schweninger- May I really drink some sec again?cried the Prince incredulonsly.\u201cWe drank a bottle and a half.He was once again the Bismarck of old.Tis pains had left him.\u201d Dr.Schweninger describes dis historical return to the dying Chancellor.He says: \u201cDeath was due to want of air in the lungs.He imagined that death would result from sudden paralysis of the brain or heart.There had always been trouble in the leg since the St.Petersburg incident, but this was by no means so Bad previously.The rapid closing of the coffin was dictated by no desire to prevent anybody whatever from seeing the body.\u201d Passing from his professional to his nri- vate relations with Prince Bismarck, Dr.Schweninger relates that Bismarck had re peated to him again and again that hig dismissal was his death sentence.Tt robbed him of the whole object of his life.The hermit of ¥riedrichsruhe had no field in which to exercise his superabundant energy.\u201cHis agony of soul,\u201d says Dr.Schwen- inger.\u2018was intense, \u201cOfter did he say to me, \u2018The old Romans voluntarily took leave of life when they were forced to quit the scene of their public activity, but this fate is not for me\u201d \u201d Enulogizing Prince Bismarck\u2019s conversational powers, Dr.Schweninger savs :\u2014 \u201cI remember not long since listening to him discussing a particular subject which had here better be left unmentioned.In his passion he suddenly clasped his head with both hands and stormed :\u2014 \u201cIf T could but interfere in this disgusting business, and tell them what re- cult it will have; but, as you know, Schweninger, my trumpet will sound no longer.Tt no longer holds wind.\u201cNournfully the Iron Chancellor looked into the political future.\u201cWe are advancing towards difficult and dangerous times,\u201d he would say.\u201cDespite his temperament, Bismarck\u2019s pulse was scarcely 60 to the minute.Hig lungs were magnificent.One breath a minute would have sufficed him if neces.gary.\u201d \u201cThis character,\u201d the doctor continued, \u201cwhich I got to know as no one else, was simplicity itself.The phrase \u2018No one is great in the eyes of his valet\u2019 did not apply to Bismarck.\u201d Gustave Beaubien died suddenly at St.Leonard, Que.in the office of Dr.P.Gaillardet, at the time of his death as at many times JOHN BULL'S JOHN BU Is superior to all others, because it is not factory made, but put together by thoroughly experienced workers.fitting and the material is the best that money can 2381 St.Catherine Street.They are perfect buy.Shirt= s Tailor, LL © © °° 0,9 PERSONALS.© A ee °° Mr.J.Savage left Cacouna on Friday for Metis.Mr.G.W.Hamilton has returned to town from Metis.| , .Mr.Malcolm Oswald is spending his holidays at Cacouna.Lieut.-Col.Henshaw returned to town on Tuesday, after a visit to Cacouna.Mrs.T.S.Jarvis is he guest of Miss Cook, Cliff Cottage, Cacouna.Mr.i Heward is spending & short time at the St.Lawrence Hall, Cacouna.Mr.Andrew Allan and Mr.R.Heneker, of this city, were in Quebec yesterday.Mrs.J.M.R.Molson has returned to town from Little Metis.;
