Ca: and $10,000 in stock for General Agency.Ltd.; the buildings, the property of the Hotel Dieu, are worth about $125,000, and damaged to the extent of $40,000.How the Blaze Began.| The blaze was first noticed by polire-' man J.Brossard in the rear of the Canada Hardware Company's premises on Rover Street, and he at once rang in | an alarm.This was at 1.14 a.m.and In five minutes a second call was sent in.Three-quarters of an hour later the fire had assumed such a threuten-, Ing aspect that the general alarm was sent in and shortly after two o'clock: the whole force of Montreal's fire de- renders were on the scene.It was Immediately apparent that the building was doomed.for the fire had a strong hold on the second and third storeys.Exolosions Were Dangerous.An explosion of gunpowder then took! pluies, followed by reports of cartridges exploding in the fire.There were Bb.,000 boxes of cartridges in stock and thesé kept going off at intervals to the! great danger of firemen, for the bullets were firing In all directions, \u2018 About 2.30 a terrific explosion occur-: red which shatiered the floors and roof 67 the building and gave the flames an inmnpuise which could not be overcome.An extension ladder was standing against the building and was set afire.It wis with difficulty removed before being badly damaged, and had to be iiimediately used in extricating six tiremen from a very dangerous posi-, tion on the roof of the bullding occupied by Chaput Fils & Co.i Fearful Plight of Fire-fighters.| When the explosion occurred the roof: oh which they were standing was raised several feet in the air by the explosion.|! The fire spread close to them and it became unbearable.They had no way of getting down and they were only: rescued just in time.! Heroic efforts were now made to con fine the fire to the building in which it had originated and for a short time this was done.The fire caught on the cornices of the building of Chaput, Fila\u2019 & Co, and also attacked the premises of the General Agency.Ltd.and for à time each fresh attack was overcome by the firemen, but the explosion had riuised the roof of Chaput & Fils\u2019 build-: ing and the fire made {ts way in.I Much Inflammable Material.Here there were large quantities of liquors and wines, brooms, groceries and much inflammable material which furnished food for a yet fiercer fire.The fire ate its way in from section to section in the top storey untll the whole storey was gutted.The firemen, however, were able to ronfine the tire to this part of the building, all the damage done to the stock on the, lower storey being done by water.By hard work the flames were kept off the premises of the Central Agen- ey Company.Ltd.Though some thou- rands of dollars worth of damage was dune by water, Good Fortune of Firemen.| Jt is a remarkable fact that despite the fierceness and danger of the fire there were no serious accidents to firemen.The usual number of men were taken from the building, overcome for a short time by smoke and heat but all quickly recovered in the open air.Two men only were taken to the hospital for treatment.These were Firemen Gauthier of No.14 Station, who -had his hand cut bv broken glass, while breaking in a window in Chaput, Fils and Co.'s building and Engineer A.Ducap, No.14 Station, who also had his hand \u2018ut at work on his en-; Eine.Both men were removed to Notre Dame Hospital and had their wounds dressed.Both proved but \"slight injuries.Mr.Chaput'\u2019s Story.Mr.C.Chaput, of the firm of L.Chaput Sons and Company, was on\u2019 the scene soon after two a.m.and told The Herald at 10 o'clock this morning that he roughly estimated their loss\u2019 of gtock at about $300,000.: \u201cWe had probably $400,000 worth of atock on the (\\premises.\" he said.\u2018and it appears to be nearly all burnt up| or spoiled by the water.; large consignment of whiskey In yes-: © \u2014 L | \u2014 | Hix Majesty\u2019s\u2014'\"The Silver Silpper.\u201d Academy of Music\u2014\"Holty-Tolty.\u201d | Francais\u2014\"Utopian Burlesquers.\u201d WHAT IS GOING ON Nouvenutes\u2014'\u2018 Marthe.\u201d National Francais\u2014' Serge Panine.\u201d \u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 STEAMSHIP ARRIVALS.New York\u2014Statendam, Ethiopia.| Glasgow\u2014Furnessia.| Leghorn\u2014Perugia.Liverpool\u2014Southwark.!

Ottawa, September 21.\u2014Lord Dundon- ald\u2019s ideas about military service in Canada have hardly been understood: by the public.It will be a sruprise to the country to learn that the late general officer commanding proposed to establish a standing army in this country to practically introduce conscription.Lord Dundonald has been applauded as the champion of a citizen soldiery, but few have known how far his ideas in that direction went: He has been called the father of the present Militia Act, but as a matter of fact he was a thorough enemy of the Act.What he wanted in the way of militia changes is shown in an autograph revision of the old Act, which is on file in the Militia Department.He was Invited by the Minister of Militia to suggest amendments to the Act in 1903, when Sir Frederick Borden thought the time had come for a revision.Lord Dundonald suggested as a beginning that the title should be changed from \u201cAn Act respecting the Militia of Canada,\u201d to \u201cAn Act respecting the \u2018army\u2019 of Canada.\u201d Throughout the bill he struck out the word \u201cmilitia\u201d and substituted the word \u201carmy,\u201d and for \u201cmilitiaman\u201d the word \u2018soldier.\u201d He preferred the three years voluntary military service fixed by the old Act should be compulsory and that \u2018all male youths in Canada between the ages of fourteen and eighteen years shall perform not less than one hundred drills.\u201d He proposed the abolition of the present schools of Instruction and in their place the creation of a force of 8,000.The present schools involve of 900, at a cost of $295,000 a year for pay outside equipment.The increase proposed would multiply the cost aix Advice Invited.It only took Lord Dundonald six tia addressed the following letter to him: \u201cYou were good enough to say you I am that it will be v ry much more convenient in putting the measure through! Parliament.Would you be good enough to indicate what changes you would propose in the way of additions, aiter- ations and omissions, taking each clause of the present Act in turn?In the! event of no

\u2018\u2018Militia\u2019\u2019 Act to the \u2018Army\u201d Act,! and throughout the word \u201cmilitia\u201d is\u2019 stricken out and \u2018army\u2019 written, To the list of classes of the male population liable to be required to bear arms in the militia he adds, \u2018and beside the above named classes all the male youth in Canada within the ages of fourteen and eighteen years shall perform not less than 100 drills of one hour each under such regulations as may be made.\u201d Clause 12%f the old act divided the militin into active and reserve militia composed of corps raised by voluntary enlistment.All of this he struck out and substituted: \u201cThis _ army shall be divided into corps rajsed by voluntary enlistment or by ballot, or partly by voluntary enlistment and partly by ballot.\u201d The old period of service clause stated, \"The period of service in the active militia in time of peace shall be, thres.years.\u201d Instead of this Lord Dundonald proposed, \u2018\u201cThe period of compulsory service,in the army in time of peace ghall be three years, but whe\": hostilities are threatened this servic: mav be extended for a year.\u201d Clause 22 of the old-aet provides the As I know you wants town next morning.\u2018day and all day Sunday.\u201cactive militla\u2019® shall consist of cave alry, fleld and garrison artillery, mounted infantry, infantry and ens gineers.This Lord Dundonald struck out and substituted, \u201cThe army shall consist of such corps and departments as may be prescribed by regulations.\u201d Clause 26 of the old act stated, \u2018Her Majesty may accept the services of corps of volunteers under such regula=- tons as are made from time to time.This permissive clause is stricken \u2018out a8 superfluous.With a stroke of his pen he abolished the present instructional force calle \u201cthe permanent force\u201d and substitued, \u201cHis Majesty may enlist a corps not exceeding 5,000 for continuous service, to perform such duties for which cone tinuous service is necessary.\u201d For the clause stating the \u201cactive militia may be called to the aid of the civil power he proposed, \u2018The army\u201d may be called to the ald of the civil power.He also struck out the clausa compelling local authorities to pay for military aid as is required at present, a provision which prevents the needless calling out of armed force, and which if allowed might enable big corpora tions to call out the force to awe strike ing workmen.The Command.A most significant change is one In which Lord Dundonald proposed to increase his own rank and pay.The old act provided an officer of the rank of colonel, at least, in the regular Britisn army should be appointed to command the militla with temporary rank of Major-General, and paid at the rate of $4,000 per annum in full of all allowances.The radical amendment of Lord Dundonald to this was: \u201cThere shall ba appointed an officer who holds the rank of Major-General or rank superior thereto in His Majesty's regular army, who shall be charged, under the orders of His Majesty with the military come mand, discipline and military adminis- {tration and organization of the army, and who, while he holds such appointment, shall have a rank one step above that which he holds in the regular army, and shall have the British pay and allowances of that rank.\u201d Thig ~lause meant the military administration and organization would he handed over by the Minister to Lord Dun- donald, and he would secure the rank of Lieutenant-General and a salary of 310.500 and allowances.This Is about #25 à day exclusive of allowances.There was only one exception to Lord Dundonald's rule of striking out the word \u201cmilitia\u201d and substituting the word army.This was the clause pros viding \u201cthe militia officer\u201d shall always be inferior to the Ymperial army officer of the same rank, no matter what the duties of their respective commissions may he.Officers of the permanent force were to be exempt from this provision.Under the act prepared by Sir Frederick the militia officers are placed on the same footing as Imperial officers.In this change the Imperial authorities concurred.The changes of Lord Dundonald meant a long step In the direction of armed car and a vast increase in the annual mili.The arming and equipment for such a force ar suggeste ed would involve millions of dollars exe penditure.LORD MINTO WILL REACH WINNIPEG ON TUESDAY His Excellency Was Presented With a Civic Address in Battleford.: Battleford,

university and -dDhe year in professional training, and à'teach on the salaries that are paid even In high schools.\u201d .Teachers in high schools are divided &s follows: : Men .coh tet neve 2000 488

considerably.Twenty years Ag0 à man in a country school received in many places twice as much as a farm laborer, the latter being provid- \"ed with his board.The salaries of farm laborers, servant girls, and those employed in factories have gone up fifty per cent.The situation is a serious one in the interests of education and the problem is one that it is hard to solve.The following table

through the great shops recently put up Dy the Canadian -Pa- cific Railway.They missed none of their interesting features, for most of them were already railroad experts, and they were under the careful pilotage of Messrs.H.Goldmark, engineer in charge of the new works; E, W.Carr and Elliott, assistants to Mr.Goldmark; &.B.Mitchell, resident engineer, and also assistant W.C, Bell ; Mr.Johnston, superintendent of motive power for the company, and C.L Dougherty.The afiernoon street car excursion around the harbor front and Mountain were well patronized, and in the evening about J00 persons thronged the comfortable quarters of the Canadian Society of Civil Engineers on Dorches- ter street, to attend the soclety's reception and meet the scientific lions of the hour.The house

principal business of the morning was the question of allowing representatives from the Federated Association t 9.th 1 f ¢ 3 .=] gr at 9.80 secs Tor La.hous batore Bolo of Letter Carriers at the Congress.It|¢ eur was argued by those opposed to | admittance that the letter carriers but few members, and, that they had that small number for ) of obtaining representation in th ess, Delegates Carey an : ( Toronto, stréngly defended tha cause of the letter carriers.This trade had a local in Toronto aMliated\u2019 with: \u2018the.Congress, and was endeavoring to \u2018bring all the letter ¢arreirs into the union, They right, to representation, and \u2018if tha \u2018wag not allowed.let the Congress withdraw the charter granted to the letter carriers two years ago.President Flett said that he did not wish to deprive the letter carriers of their right to representation, but the question was whether Delegate Spinard, of Ottawa, had a right to represent the Toronto local of letter carriers.Secretary Draper explained that Delegate Spinard was not representing a Toronto local of Letter Carriers.The letter carriers were not a local organ- Ization, but a Dominion organization.Last year Delegate McMordie had represented the assoclation and no question had been asked, and Delegate Spl- nard had the same right this year.Considerable indignation was expressed by members of the Congress, that the secretary should have received the per capita tax of twenty-five cents on only sixteen members from an organization which evidently had a mem- bérship much larger than thls.Delegate Glockling stated that the National Association of Letter Carriers was composed of sixteen members, representatives from the various localg throughout the country, and that 1 - the secretary had received the money, the association had a right to representation.The committee's report; was adopted and the representative of the letter car- viers allowed to take his seat.\" Delegate James Simpson, president of the credential committee, moved for a reconsideration of the credential.Several delegates wanted to know if it would be possible for their trades to follow the example of the letter carriers and pay per capita tax on a board of sixteen, instead of on every member of the trade.Delegate Todd appealed \"from the decision of the chair, and the president allowed the appeal, and Mr.Todd began to speak.Secretary Draper\u2014* Where did you get the fact that a man who appeals from the decision of the chair has the right to speak?\u201d President Flett\u2014\"I got it from Cush- ing, sir.\u201d The secretary\u2014\"Well, I never saw It fn Cushing.\u201d Delegate Todd spoke explaining his appeal.He was there representing a local union of his trade in Canada.As a matter of benefit to his union, he asked the Congress to give them the same right granted to the letter car- riera.President Flett said he was governed entirely by precedent and constitutional law.He held that the various international unions could not be represented by a board, when their membership exceeded that amount.Vice-President J.B.Mack put the question and the decision of the chair was sustained.: The delegates took a trip out to La- chine this afternoon for the purpose of running the rapids.CL An open meeting will be held this evening in the hall of sessions.OBITUARY St.Catharines,

plans laid for a new system of correspondent membership in foreign markets; a general revision of the Canadian tariff had been hastened, an excursion across the continent bad been successfully carried out, snd many valuable benefits regarding legislation, maintenance, labor supply, export trade, etc., had accrued to the members.More than two thousand five hundred trade enquiries from all parts of the world had been forwarded to the members of the association.- In view of the growth of the association's work, more mem ; better office accommo- gation, and staff, etc., were required for the next year.Ce - The report highly complimented President G.E.Drummond and the general officers and \"staff on their excellent work.It was adopted after a brief discussion.TRIP TO GREAT BRITAIN.Tlie reception and membership committee report was presented by Chairman Robert Crean, and sketched the various excursions which bad been successfully carried out dur- ng the year.; Its main feature.which was a good deal discussed, was the following resolution: , \u201cWhereas, If an excursion to Great Britain, to take place in the summer of 1905, can be organized amongst the members of this asso- cistion.we believe that it would.have far- reaching rommercial results, and would tend to promote the mutual interests of our association, the Dominion and the Empire; \u2018\u2018\u201cTherefore, be it Resolved, that the Reception and Membership Committee of the Asso- ciatinn be authorized to consult the members of the association at an early date and obtain their views regarding the same; further action to be determined by the Executive Council whéti\u201cthe results of this enquiry are presented.\u201d\u2019 Chairman Robert Crean, of Toronto, in an energetic speech, strongly urged this excursion, which he declared would greatly tactli- tate trade intercourse between the Dominion and the Mother Country.\u2019 Mr.R.C.Wilkins, of Montreal.also heart- tly favored the idea of a delegation to visit Great Britaln and preach the doctrine of referential trade, which, coming from so oyal a country as Canada, he thought would bave exceptional influence.He made a very petriotic address, and criticized the Government for not taking a stronger stand on the subject of preferential trade.Mr.Robert Munroe spoke of the necessity of an important contribution to the defence vof the Empire.He regretted that the Government bad not spoken more clearly on tbe subject, considering that as a result of this - teticence tbe press of England was rather dubious ax to Canada\u2019s position with regard to the matter.He favored sending \u2018the delegation to England to.show, fn a decisive way.the feeling of the people of Canada that the Dominion should make some return for the insurance the British fiset gave our ocean commerce.| Mr.H.Burt, of Toronto, also endorsed the project.He declared that if the Canadians knew the.British market as well ag they did tho American market, and vice versa, that the trade of the Dominion would speedily be diverted.very much more away from the United States to the Mother Country.After some further discussion the report, with\u2019 the resolution lutact, was adopted unanimously.; ADVANCE FOREIGN TRADE.The repost of the commercial intelligence er Aatutatturers to ne 5 ve y - = by - 4 5, 3 ue LS : xX.oA commiittes was then presented by Chairman Arnold W.Thomas.\u2018It regretted the shrink- ue the growth of Canada's export trade, icularly that to Great Britain.In order to aid our foreign trade, it suggested à much more complete and expert system of foreign trade representatives.This matter had been considered, and was reported as follows: \u2018During the greater part of the year, your committees has had under consideration the reorganization of the incomplete system of foreign representation through which the association has been endeavoring to serve its members.Thorough investigations have been made, and it has finally \u2018been.decided to or- ganixe à system along the lines adopted by the Philadelphia \u2018Commercial Museum, which is the greatest independent institution of its kind in the world.On this point the following resolution was presented: : : (1) That the Dominion Government should: be urged to extend its system of commercial ncies; se That the representatives appointed should te active, energetic business men with a wide knowledge of Canadian products, raw and manufactured; (3) That they should be recalled at least* once in three years in order to visit the leading exporters in Canada.and to keep in active touch with the progress of Canadian industries.As the result of a baligt of the members the committee recommended that the association should not recommend the adoption of the metric system in Canada unless it should be simultaneously adopted in Great Britain and the United States.JAPANESE DISCRIMINATION.The report also pointed out that, owing to Canada Tot being a party to the British most favored nation treaties with Japan, the latter country's tariff discriminated against Canadian goods on almost all lines, to the extent of 33 1-3 per cent.As the Dominion Govern- went was not favorable to accepting the terms of the present treaty, which did not expire until 1911, \u2018there seaemed to be little hope of baving this discrimination removed.Another point urged by the committee was the advisability of establishing a branch office of the association at London.England, to aid in the work of the Canadian High Com- \u2018misioner there, with a suitable building, for the exhibition of Canadiag products, etc.The committee had also dealt with the idea of securing a universal civic holiday in Ontario.Mr.Hobson, of Toronto, suggested that the holiday be always fixed for Mondays, so as not to break up the work of the week in factories.Lt.-Col.Gartsbore, of London, thought the holiday should be fixed for Sunday.(Laughter.) There were already too many holidays in the country, governments baving fixed many useless holidays, and he thought the association sbould not approve this accumulation.Mr.S.B.Burland, of Montreal, favored the adoption of the metric system, which is used by all foreign countries except Russia, Great Britain, the United States and Canada, on the ground that \u2018\u2018to do export trade we must speak an export language,\u201d .President Drummond closed the discussion with a brief speech.endorsing the idea of making bolldays fewer.but uniform, and also tavoring the opening of a branch office at London.The report was then adopted.TO ENTERTAIN DELEGATES.Mr.George W.Hadrill, secretary of the Board of Trade, extended to the delegates the privileges of the Board of Trade, with the reading room.etc.during their visit.Ap invitation was also recelved from the Shawinigan Falls: Water and Power Co., for the delegates to visit the Falls and power plant on the 24th instant President Drymmond warmly endorsed an invitation from the C.P.R.for the delegates to visit the new engine shops.Rev.T.Albert Moore, president of the Ontario Lord's Day Alliance, asked that a deputation of the Alllance be received by the delegates, with regard to the preservation of the Sabbath.It was decided to receive this.depiitation at 4.30 this afternoon.The meeting then adjourned and witnessed sn exibition of the \u2018city fire brigade, which -waë given under Chief Benoit's command, on Dominion -8quare.This proved highly successful, and the delegates warmly praised the | work of the firemen and the excellence of the appliances.no MR.MORLEY WILL VISIT CANADA Toronto, Sept.21.\u2014Right Hon.John Morley, M.P., the author of the biography of Gladstone and many.other works and who, has held important Cabinet positions in Great Britain, expects to be in Toronto some time towards the end of October.Such is the purport of a letter which Hon.Richard Har- court, Minister of Educatton, received yesterday from Mr.Morley.WAS THE CHOICE OF BISHOP VALID?Election of N.S.Bishop Re- {erred to Supreme Court Judge Halifax, N.S., Sey\u201d.21.\u2014(Special.)\u2014 The executive 05 the Diocesan.Synod of Nova Scotia met yesterday to consider the question that has been raised by one or two people regarding the legality of the election of Archdeacon Worrel) as Bishop of Nova Scotia.The executive decided that the election was valid, but will refer the matter to a Judge of the Supreme Court for his decision, Very Rev.Dean Gilpin presided and there was a large attendance of members.The whole matter of the election was opened up and discussed for heurly two hours and a half, during which a series of resolutions and amendments were offered, but only one \u2018was passed by the meeting.Only two members expressed the opinion that the election was not valid.One of them was a city clergyman and the other a layman from Dartmouth, both of whom contended that the required number of delegates were not present when the ballots were taken.Other members stated that there was no doubt in their minds that the election was valid and they pointed out that while the law only required 116 ballots to be cast there were 119 votes cast on each of the three ballots and that at times there were 120 delegates present.The following resolution was moved by Canon Crawford, seconded by Mr.J.Walter Allison and was passed unanimously: \u201cResolved that a large majority of the executive committee are perfectly satisfied that the election of Archdeacon Worrell, was legal and valid, but as à dvubt has been expressed, be it therefore resolved that the whole question be 1aid before Mr.Justice Graham, or some other judge of the Supreme Court, of Nova Scotia.for decision.NOT SLEEPING WELL?\u201c Without sleep there can be no bodily br mental vigor, consequently sleeplessness is a dangerous condition, indicat- Ing poor digestion, thin blood and ex- fausted nerves.Nothing so surely restores restful bleep a¥ Ferrozone.It's harmless, just a strengthening blood maker.Ferro- sone nourishes every part of the body.makes the nerves h , tones the system wonderfully.The cause of your sleepless condition is removed\u2014hesith] ™ restored\u2014you can work, eat, sleep, feel like a new bdelng by using Ferro- Ppen't put off, get Ferrosone to-ddy, $00 per box, or glx for $1.50, at all deal- or Poleon & Ce, Kingston, Ont, g » EW ;

London, Sept.21\u2014The Manchester Courier says that when Lord -Rose- bery deliberately suggests that the col- onjes are indifferent on the fiscal question he becomes indeed a political Rip \u2018Van Winkle.Lu e | The Manchester Guardian says: \u201cIn Canada, the show colony of English protectionist orators, there is every sign, as Lord Rosebery indicated, of an early withdrawal of'even such ineffectual feints at a preference as has been already made for the nominal advan-; tage of English manufactures, and Mr.; Chamberlain's Welbeck endeavor to adapt his scheme to the epecial interests of the English agricultural industries has instantly drawn from the corresponding trade In Canada an indignant protest.\u201d Co Referring to Lord Rosebery\u2019s saying that Mr.Chamberlain is ringing the Imperial chime on an alarm bell, the Birmingham Daily Past saye that no good purpose is served by such allus- fons, however smart they may appear to be.The Liverpool Mercury, referring to Lord Rosebery's speech, says it is certain that no offer of even the most tentative character has been gent us by either Canada or Australia.The Yorkshire Post says: \u2018\u2019Lord Rose- dery's liveliness was almost exhausted upon Mr.Chamberlain's proposals and the attitude of the colonies, especlally Canada, towards them, but that is not \u201cthe issue before the country.We doubt if it will be until it has been the | subject of a careful investigation by a royal commission.\u201d The Globe, referring to Mr, Drum- mond\u2019s guaranteeing that the Domên- fon would be found ready and willing to accord \u2018a substantial preference to the Mother Country, says.\u201cLord Rose.bery Je a Radical Imperialist.He has nothing but cold water to throw on | such proposals.He is content to la\u201d ft down, as an axiom that raising Im- perlal questions, whether with of with- but due cause, endangers the unity of the Empire as a whole.A more foolish proposition was never énunciaated by a clever politician.\u201d .« The Pall Mali Gazette abserves : Signs abound that the colonies are eager to go further, the address of Mr.Drummond being only the latest of an Impressive eeries.The Westminster Gazette, referring to Mr.Drummond wanting a tariff which, while encouraging the devejop- ment of Canadian industries, would give a substantial preferénce to the Mother Country, says: \u2018We may take it for granted that the \u2018greater equality\u2019 Mr.Chamberlain demands will not be held compatible with the develop- \u2018ment of Canadian industries.\u2019 The Chronicle, referring to Mr.Drummond's apeech, calls the preference advocated a delusion, Great Brit- nin receiving nothing in return for a preference on food and raw materials, The St.James Gazette says that Lord Rosebery was singularly unfortunate in his reiterated denial of the exist- | ence of a colonial offer.\u201cfor to-day i comes Mr.Drummond's declaration in I fabor of a mutual policy of preference.1Æ 18 most unlucky for poor Rosebery! ito be cornered this way.\u201d | rt BROKEN PLANK CAUSE OF A MAN'S \u2018BEOWNING at \u2018Leonidas Aubut Fell Into the Canal at, Ste.Cunegonde and Did Not | Rise Again.The body of J.Leonidas Aubut, aged 20, was found at five o'clock this morning at | the foot of the wharf near the machine shops : at Ste.Cunegonde.A plank reaching the deck of the yacht Courrier, upon which he was standing, broke in two apd threw him in the river.As he did not rise to the sur- | | face, it is supposed one of the broken pieces of the plank injured him.: VE THEATRE T, AND L.MEN GI PAR The Trades & Labor Council, who are sit- i ting in convention in this èlty, have decided to have a theatre party and the Amusement !

Olivier Dufresne, clty comptroller and auditor, had passed away suddenly at his residence, 130 Cherrier Street, about: half-past seven o'clock thls morning.| - Although Mr.Dufresne had been in\u2019 poor health for some time, it was not thought that his condition was serious and the announcement of his death came as a great shock to his many, b friends.Mr.Dufresne has been a sufferer from, hay fever for many years.According to his usual custom he had spent his four weeks\u2019 vacation at St.Faustin,.among the Laurentians, in a fruitless search for health.The fine air of the mountains built him up to a certain extent, but the change back to city life a week ago was more than he could: stand.; Mr.Dufresne was in attendance at his office all week, but appeared to be in wretched health.Yesterday morning for a short time he came down to the City Hall, complaining of the heavy; atmosphere snd the disagreeable wea-: ther.He retired lust evening at the usual time and rose again about seven) o'clock this morning and dressed.About half-past seven he called to his\u2019 wife that he was not feeling well and; could hardy breathe.Mrs.Dufresne) entered and found her husband.seated in his arm chair.A moment later.he passed away.L A doctor was immediately summoned\u2019 and death was pronounced due to bron-! chial asthma.Mr.Dufresne was born at Ste.Eliza-; beth, Joliette, in \u20181856, and was thus only/ forty-eight years of age.He was educated at the Joliette College and afterwards at the Catholic Commercial Aca-\u2019 demy in Montreal.At the latter he: showed a remarkable talent for bookkeeping and accounting, and in 1876, his final year, he carried off the Jodoin.prize of $50.co Subsequently he obtained a position: ifn the business house of Amable Pre-' vost & Co., St: Paul Street, and after been made, it is expected that the fune-| five years of faithful work became chitf ral will take place on Saturday morn-' accountant in that establishment.The special aptitude he displayed and the placed at half-mast this morning out of.considerable «knowledge he acquired soon entitled him to be considered \u201cone: of the first accountants in the city.It: was therefore no surprise when he was appointed City Auditor in 1887.In 1890 treasurer, was one of the many to pay.he became City Comptroller, and the double position be has since held to the.complete satisfaction of the Council.His capacity for work and his capability in dealing with all matters which: came Into his charge became well! known and won for him also the] esteem of the general public.He ex-j .M A.ay Qt.Catherine St.and Atwater Ave.Firet game called at $ e'eleck.CHRISTIAN SCIENCE LECTURE By JUDGE SEPTIMUS J.NANNA, CSD, \u2014IN THE\u2014 KING\u2019S HALL, 2463 #t Catherine 82, en Thursday, September 22, AT 8 PM.Admission Fres.The Public Invited, a Headquarters, Sept.20th, 1904 \"3rd Fleld Battery C.A.\"All ranks will parade Friday evening, Sept.23rd, at the Armory, at 8 p.m.sharp,\u2019 to re- celve annual pay for Training, 1904.Uniform, plain clothes.G.W.STEPHENS, Major, \u2018» All This Weak\u2014Mat.Sat.Tue Big Musical Comedy, .The Silver Slipper ACADEMY | ALLIED TEE This Theatre does net advertise in the Gane MATINEES\u2014Wed., Thurs.and Sat AOLLY, JOITY Theatre Franeals7 THIS WEEK, SEPT.19, The Utoplan Extravaganza A Company of the highest class.\" Prices\u2014l0c, 0c, Mc, 35¢ and bôc.Next Week\u2014THE BRIGADIERS.5 ART ASSOCIATION: PhNñpe Square.!

from Abbitibl and join their work to | that of the Grand Trunk surveyors at any point they please.BROME ELECTION TRIAL \u2014 IN COURT OF REVIEW Respondent's Appeal From Decision of Judges Archibald and Lynch Will be Taken Up.Sweetsburg, Sept.21.\u2014(Speclal.)\u2014The eleêtion petition in the cause celebre and Albert J.Dyer et al against Hon.J.C.McCorkill, member of the Legislature for the county of Brome and Provincial Treasurer will be called for hearing before the Court of Review in \"Montreal to-morrow morning, at ten 0'clock.'The respondent after waiting since the 14th of July last for the peti- : tioners to move In the mâtter inscrib- led the case himself for final hearing before the Court of Review on Saturday last.The respondent's appeal from the decision of Judge Lynch of the 5th :of March last, dismissing the prelimin- .ary objections, will be heard at the same time as well as respondent's demand for the revision of the, various interlocatory judgments \u2018rendered by Judge Archibald, of Montreal, upon the merits of the election petition.| | A MEAL IN A TBA OUP PENN ua Me Sen Canadian Amateur Athletic Union 21st ANNUAL CHAMPIONSHIPS a A.A.Grounds, Sat., 24th Sept.7 TRACK EVENTS.§ FIELD EVENTS.50c.For sale at Morton, Phillips & Co., 1756 Notre Dame St, » General Admirsion, 350.E.HERBERT BROWN, ,Sec.-Trens.C.A.A.U.SE EFEN / \u2018~ > » ELECTIONS + ef Are often heM to see whe % so is the most popular candi- W date, but with Bird Foods it ts different, no election being necessary.The Bird Loving Public want CHOICE, GOOD.CLEAN, WELL-MIXED SEED, se Brock\u2019s Bird Seed and Treat Although it-bas many competitors, stands without a rival, and is what tbe public demand.' member the name BROCK.All Grocers and Druggists Keep it.\u2014 \u2019 AFTERNOON BOARD SALES.' 15 Twin City at 974.\"6 Twin City at 97%.25 Coal at 5.25 Coal at 59.50 Iroa at 114.25 Iron at 11%.$2,000 Iron bonds at 7214.25 Power at 77%.A \u2014\u2014\u2014r\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 & NEW YORK STOCKS._ By private wire to Mr.C.D.Monk, from J.8.Bacha & Co.:\u2014 Sept.10 Sept, 3 DESCRIPTION Op.OL \u2018Opel Amslga\u2019ated Copper.57 7 Am.Locom.Corre Soe A 5 we do do pref 97% 97 wy \u201c Am Sugar Reg Co \u2018 181 190%.130 1» Am Smelig & Ref Oo 6 « Am Car pd Foundry.% sx ss = Anaconds Miuinx Ce 97 9 ss Atch.Topæ Santa Fe Lx NK sem MN © 0 J Baltimore and Ohio.85% 2% ur \u201c Brookl RDA TE.4% MK bibs Md yn .e e and Alton Co.40% Jn Sus hot Cunadian Pacitic .12786 187% 174 3876 Canada Southern oT coir aie ess es an e .Chic.Burl and Quin.ou té 5 cere Chicand N West.M cece sere Chic R land Pac .cee ee esas.teem o, an \"16644 Colorado Southern.19% \"ii Hex w do do pref.61 #1 50 5 soe Ti mm, 8 el and Iron.Clev.CCandL.v\u2026 To Bu # Detroit United Ry.To Del.Lack and Wess.378% .Delaware-Hudson.166) 166% 108 - Denver R G pref .16056 814 LTE es Duluth 8 ShoAlL OUT aig tt .0 o Le ease ese supe - Great Northers \u2018pref, is oy iid Jt ener: oO.» 1 Jersey Central .ue +g 1054 ui Hoeking Valley .0 cree Iowa Central com .\u2026 oo.co.cove esa.Kansas-Toxes com.NY even .Knanpas-Texaspf,.47% 44 ns Louisville-Nash.ey, 12t 121% 1 Man Elevd.188 168.158 Missouri Pasifio.\u2026.97% 98 oi\u201c 08 Metropolitan Tree.191M 190M 121% 191 N Y Con Hudsos.128% 19534 186% 1 Erie Railroad .- M do dolptd.66% & do do Ilptd .«4 ss 40% 44 N Y Ont-Western.EH 4 MM 8B Norfolk-West com .8 «wx ed Rorthery Bacurities.rene ai \u201cig [oT acific J \u201c33 Penn RR .12074, 190 181 Pressed Sitesl oom.BL.ape do do perf.-.cee RK.Peoples Gas .\u201cens eee 101 108 Phil and Read! oe cs 68 do dbo! ed [A u 78 o o ce vu - ern Ry com.do do pref .96) 964 95% = Southern Pacific .M4 86 MK Tenn Coal-Irom .47: \u201c oo Texas Pi ceescens BI 20% 8% 81 TwinCity .91% \"x ee.OTE U B Leatheccom .9 J do do pref .8 8 cces conn U 8 Bteel com .1666 .1} do do wee B14 0834 pl U BRubber com.194 in vess À o o rose oe .J Union Pac flo com .975 x se 1 O Pref .\u2026.cee aves ç [i] 0% 2 3 Le .CHICAGO MARKETS, 7 By private wire to Mr.C.D.Monk, : J.8.Bache & Co.: i .ke from , 107% 108% 10644.110 108% 109 : .62% 61% .b2 ~ W% 51 50% 50%-% 28% 21 30% 20%b * 22% 32%-% 21% a ns 11 80 1niz 1 715 72 7 10- 716 16 76 75 18 vo.Manufactared by the American Fluid Beef Company, Moatreal.E \u2019 - [4 .;

and secondly, by an increase of $18,775,896 in the importation of goods for consumption; in other words, while our \u201ctotal trade statistics have not altered materially, the.balance of trade has turned against us in one year to the extent of $34,763,131.The main feature of the imports, said Mr.Drummond, was the large quantity of goods imported from the States that might be manufactured {n- Canada.\u201cThe amount of dutiable goods imported under the general tariff from the United States in the year ending June, 1904, was $77,390,807.That, in short, represents the value of the Canadian harvest reaped last year by the United States\u2014a country that will not admit dur goods on anything like reasonable terms.\u201d ; He strongly advocated .the adoption of a properly constructed tariff, admitting raw material at a low rate of duty and with proper protection upon the finished article by which we could easily increase our output of manufactures by $60,000,000.From this the president naturally gravitated to a discussion of the Canadian tariff, and relterated the demand made by the Association at Halifax ten years ago for a revision of the tariff upon more highly protective lines, with a substantial mutual Jreference within the Empire\u2014at the same time: striét- ly adhering to the \u201cAdequate protection of all Canadian producers.\u201d \u201cThe full and careful revision of our present customs tariff, which we have consistently pressed for during the past two years, and which we are convinced is so vitally necessary in the best Interests of this country, has not yet been undertaken by the Dominion Government.We cannot but deplore the delay, because it has meant in the interim, and it means to-day, a very serious and continued loss to the industries, and we belleve to the general Interests of Canada.We recognize that signs are not wanting to show that the \u201covern- ment realize that we are righ: th our contentions, this being Indicated hy.the highly commendable action of the Government in respect to steel rafls, and (by other very necessary changes.recently made, and which are fn the right direction.In 80 far as, these changes are helpful to the particular, Canadian industries dealt with they must -have the cordial recognition and approval.of \u2018his Association, but nevérthelean \u201cve tand for a full.revision of the: tariff \u201c# being absolutely necessary to the welfare of all the industries and inter- esta of this country.;

plot concocted in Buffalo to unseat the Liberal member In North Grey came at a bad time for Mr.R.L.Borden.During his Western Ontario tour the Conservative leader has devoted considerable attention to the corrupt practices revealed in North Perth and in Sault Ste.Marie, and by tmplication, if not in so many words, thas conveyed his impression \u2018that the wrong-doing in the Ontario bye-elec- \u2018tions was all on one side.What will he have to say of the men who deliberately plotted the North Grey charges und attempted by perjury to give them effect against innocent men?The story of wholesale bribery told by Nelson and Mulloy, the Buffalo experts, was torn to pieces in the court room.The discrepancies in the dates and charges were made perfectly clear, and the remarks of the judges were \u2018scathing to a degree rarely noted in a Canadian court room.The trial has been adjourned until October 31, because the Conservatives were unprepared to fol- tow up the case after the exposure of the conspiracy.In the meantime, however, the province is no doubt waiting to hear what the Conservative leader thinks of such tactics to unseat an op- pcnent.While he is on the subject of eleétoral corruption he should not fail to Ydiscuss this latest evidence of the evil.And he is now in the neighborhood where public attention is strongly directed to the subject.pt DUNDONALD AND \"THE MILITIA ACT.~ Whatever else may be said about thern, Mr.Borden and some of his newspaper advocates are not lacking in audacity.Mr.Borden tihds it in hls heart to pose in Ontario as the apostle of electoral purity at the very time an Ontario judge 1s denouncing from the bench a conspiracy of perjury ope.- ated by and for the Conservative party there.And some of his newspaper supporters have the hardihood to claim that Lord Dundonald is the real author of the new Militia Act, when they know very well that he fought that act, and openly tried to get others to tight it.In the debate over his dismissal, Sir Frederick Borden said, referring to the Dundonald manifesto: + \u201cNot to the Minister, not to the Gov- ernment-\u2014because if he could not get my ear he might have gone to the Prime Minister\u2014but he must make an appeal to the people because, forsooth, in my wisdom I saw fit to introduce irto this House a much-needed Militia Bill, and was about to put it through.What was the matter with the General Officer Commanding?He saw in that bill, and learned from my statements in the House, that I approved of a new system which has een adopted in England, by which the services of the Commander-in-Chief are dispensed with, and he took alarm, end was determined, withouf making an effort to convince me that I was wrong in my proposal, to appeal over my head and beyond the Government to the people, in order to prevent me from carrying the Militia Bill through this House.\u201d \u2018This is not consistent with the theory that Lord Dundonald .was the author of the act as it now stands, Nelther is that view strengthened by the ex- tracte from a document in Lord Dun- donald's handwriting, on file at the Militia Department, quoted by The jerald\u2019s Ottawa represntative elsewhere in' this issue.The .act as it stands met with the approval of the British authorities, with whom Sir Frederick conferred, ® Lord Dundonald\u2019s proposal were wholly at variance with those actually, adopted.He wanted to abolish the militia, \"even the word, and substitute an \u201carmy.\u201d He wanted a standing army of 5,000 A men to begin with, He wanted every youth to be compelled to take least a hundred Grills, He wanted to multiply, by about six times, the cost of the permanent establishment, an extra charge of a million and a half a year for this item alone.For voiuntary service in the militia in time of peace he \u2018wanted eubstitute a \u201ccompulsory service in the army.\u201d He wanted to take from the local authorities the responsibility for calling.out the militia in case of local trou- bies.And he wanted, as, Indeed, his speeches made perfectly clear, no directing council acting with the \u20acana- dian Minjeter, as the new act, like the new British act, provides, but a complete transfor of authority from the Canadian civil power to a British gen- ers], acting directly under the\u2019 King, vo responsibility, that is to say, ld be

force without re- \u2018sort te conscription.The British authorities sided with the Canadian Minister, and turned Lord Dundonald down.He became angry, invited a conflict, was dismissed, attacked the new act and its authors, did all the mischief he could, and left the country when ordered to do mo by his Britieh superiors.And now our Conservative friends claim that he is the author of the new act.It is sublimely audacious, but it is also flagrantly dishonest.The credit for the -new act rests with the man\u2014 the men\u2014he chose to traduce, ' \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 FIGURES.President Drummond, of the Manufacturers\u2019 Association, last night quoted from an advance copy of the census returns as to industrial establishments, and, with the object of proving, as he said, that manufacturing is no longer.of secondary importance, offered the computation that the aggregate output of the manufacturing establishments of Canada is over 481 million dollars, or only- thirty millions less than all the other.production of the Dominion, agricultural, mineral, dairying, forest and fisheries.; \u2018The statement looks wrong on the face of it, and looks worse when tested by the figures Mr.Drummond gives.To begin with, he says this is the product of 344,095 work people.Are we to serlously accept the statement that the production of these had a value almost equal to that of all the rest of the population?Evidently not.We all work pretty hard in this country, and the résults obtained in factorics are not five times as great as those obtained elsewhere, , Secondly, the wages of these work- peaple amounted to 113 millions.All the rest of the 481 millions, therefore, must have been derived from materials produced either in Canada or abroad.When it comes to comparative production, therefore, is not the 113 millions, plus fair profits of capital, the fair allowance for manufacturing industry, if its importance is to be measured against that of all other vocations, combined?Thirdly, the total of 481 millions is evidently.obtained by adding together the outputs of factories engaged in various processes.The output of leather from the tannery is added to the output of shoes from the factory, making perhaps ten dollars, in Mr.Drum- mond\u2019s calculation, for a pair of shoes that sells for five.° Add together the cost of pig iron, and the cost of the steel.made from it, and the cost of the rails or machinery made from the steel, and you get an aggregute output representing two or three times the cost of the rails or machinery, which cost must and does include all the others.Mr.Drummond's handling of the figures about manufacturing are not exactly luminous.But that need not matter were it not that his use of them prepared those to whom they were addressed for the bland and modest declaration of Mr.Gurney that the manufacturers \u2018ought to constitute themselves a governing body of this country\" instead of the present Government, or even a Government conducted by an Opposition which is \u2018\u2019looking round and wondering as to what -would be popular, what would catch votes.\u201d Granted the importance \u2018of the manufacturing Interests, granted a general desire to help them judiciously, the country ls still a long way too big to be governed in the exclusive interests of 344,095 workmen, drawing $113,- 283,146, or the \u2018excellent employers who manage the expenditure of that sum in wages.=\u2014\u2014 1 BETTER PAY FOR THE TEACHERS It is a matter of congratulation that the Protestant Board of School Commissioners have seen fit to make a general increase in the salaries of the teachers under their control, despite the, great difficulties which they necessar- lly encounter in financing the work Avhich they supervise, Teachers\u2019 salaries In Quebeo are ridiculously low, considering the importance of their vork, and raising them in one section lo?the province makes it easier to do: something in another.In Ontarlo and! Quebec of late years the cry has been that competent and wide-awake teach- ère would not remain in the profession.Men were leaving Ît almost entirely to women, exceptfin high schools, and while admitting that women were as well or better qualified for some branches of the work, it was found ex- «ciusive teaching by women was not always the best thing for a boy or girl.The reason was not hard to find.Wages were offered teachers which a ccmmon tradesman would laugh at, and men of spirit and progressiveness would not remain in a profession which barely ylelded them a living when other callings were offering good salaries for men and women of abllity.So the progress of absorbing the best elements in the staffs of schools went on, until the people were forced to notice it, and began to call a halt, Now, a demand for more male teachers In the schools is slowly growing louder, tetter teachers and other than the lowest tenderers are now being sought, and as a result galaries are slowly getting to be what they should be.The remarkable fact ia that they have not been raised to their proper level long since.Few people nowadays are not interested in the educational and moral progress of their children, and few do not regard thé schobl as the oy, mont nportant Mbtrusgéné ti this pro- JOHN CHINAMAN'8 NEUTRALITY.Madame Europa\u2014Glad to hear, John, that you are not harboring any of these pugiliste.John\u2014Bless your heart, ma'am, they have been fighting in my bask yard for the last six months! gress.\u2018The heart of the school, of course, is the teacher, and so people demand for this position one whom they can rely on to shape their children's minds In the proper directions, and train them for the purpose of ïeeting life.And yet for such a person they expect to pay a salary so low that they are almobt ashamed in many cases to name it.This, however, is only a matter of hablt, and wae due first to the supply of teachers being 80 much greater than the demand, and the fact that the country was not growing fast enough to attract brighter minds to other channels.But as these things are now changed, and people are realizing that it is a bad habit they have fallen into, there is hope that soon there will be a great change \u2018for the better, and that salaries will be waid which will keep contented with their lot the best teachers.in the profession, so that only the best will be employed.To-day's séhoo! boys are tomorrow's voters, and we cannot afford \u2018to give them anything but the best pos.gible training and culture in our schools.NOTES AND COMMENTS, Canada is with Laurier.The sacred clty of Mukden is now the scared city of Mukden.The reports of Mr.Borden's meetings show that while he takes some members with him, they are only those who could not possibly expect to be taken into a Cabinet.Evidently he does not wish to intrude upon the jealousies of the others.Mr.Olivier Dufresne, who died suddenly this morning, was a most valuable civic official, lle was always anxious to plèase, but he showed on several important occasions a marked capacity for resistance.If things are better at the Hall than they were, much of the credit 1s due to him.There should be a strict investigation into the latest fire loss.The greatest precautions were taken to keep any possible fire in the hardware store from spreading to the Chaput warehouse, yet the Chaput stock is ruined, It ie Incumbent, on Chief Benoit to show why he did not confine the fire to the building where it broke out, and why, in so well arranged a building as that !

sentiment remains decidedly mixed, and as many influential speculators have espoused the bear side temporarily, the Market is likely to continue rather two.sided for the present.Much will de- vend upon the nature of the reports from the corn section.1t is worthy of of the grain yield has called forth some vigorous dissenting opinions from the grain trade.\u2014Laidlaw & Co.INVESTMENT RETURNS.The\u2019 investment returns on leading Montreal stocks at the closing prices this morning are furnished by Fairbanks Brothers, 1724 Notre Dame St, Montreal:\u2014 Close.Div'd.Pays.Canadian Pacific xd 127 6 4.72 Moritreal Btreet :.- 204 - -10 4.30!

the news is good.We sincerely hope their shares will not be manipulated as they formerly were.It would be a far greater benefit to the company and to the sharcholders it rapid advances and consequent depressions were avoided.We believa that recently one of the experts employed by the United States Steel Corporation, whose duty it is to examine into iron and steel making in different parts of the world, was allowed a thorough inspection of the properties and plant .of the Steel Company.He considered the steel rlant as being entirely modern and up-to-date, and, after studying out the ore, lime and coal situation, and the shipping faciiities, pronounced the opinion that iron and steel could be more cheaply made there than in any other place in the world.The company has been mañaged too extravagantly and is paying for it now.It has a long, tedious time of retrenchment before it, but we bave couli- dence -in its ultimate success.\u2019v Bank of England Is In Strong Shape A London, Eng., cable reads:\u2014' \u2018The cheering facts in the Situation, from this market's point\u2019 of view, are the Bank of England's exceptionally strong position and the steadily increasing output of gold.To this second influence The Economist directs, attention, es- will probably be £70,000,000.This would compare with some £67,000,000 in 1903 and £61,- 000,000 in 1902.Next year will undoubtedly reach a much higher record.The strength and its largely\u2019 in- causes; first, the policy of paying a fractional premium on bar gold; second, the recent large export of sovereigns from India, and finally, the influx of cash from home ecircu- lation as a result of slackening trade.This strong position is timely, in view of the fact that further Government borrowings are impending

CANADIAN GRAIN A dispatch to The Herald from \u2018Washington says: If the wheat crop of the United States for the present season does not exceed some of the current estimates the milling interests of the country will feel more than ever the restrictions which the Dingley tariff law puts in the way of thelr drawing on the wheat fields of Canada for their raw materia manufactured into flour.It is at present.os sible for the millers of the United States to will foreign wheat under the provisions of Section 10 of tbe Dingley law for manufacturing in bonded warehauses, but that section ls taken advantage of to only a limited extent owing to the burdens which ft imposes upon the miller.He must either grind foreign wheat exclusively for at least part \u2018of the year or he must run practically two estabiish- ments, \u2018keeping his\u2019 forelgn wheat separate from that made from wheat grown in the United States.Further than this none of the flour and none of the bran or other by-pro- ducts can be sold'in the United States, and the requirement that the by-products must be exported is particularly complained of, as it ts often impossible to ship them in good condition to a remunerative foreign market.Two bills were pending before the House Committee on Ways and Means In the last session of Congress that would give considerable relief to the millers if enacted into laws.One bill proposes to provide that an American | manufacturer importing raw materials and | exporting a finished product may obtain a drawback equal to the full amount of the duties pald on the

identification of the identical imported raw material in the exported goods.Under it the American miller would be relieved of the necessity of milling in bond and keeping his Canadian wheat and its product separate from bis domestic wheat and its product.Upon exporting a carload of flour, in order to obtain à drawback of the duty paid on Canadian wheat, he would only have to prove that he had imported and used a sufficient quantity of Canndlan wheat of the grade required to produce a carload of flour of the grade exported.The simplest and most effective way \u2018of enabling the millers to obtain Canadian wheat would be to either remove the duty on wheat: absolutely or enter into a reciprocity agreement with Canada in which the free admission of Canadian wheat would be granted in return for the reduction or repeal of some Canadian duty.The wheat duty is one of the taxes in the Dingley law that are neither protective nor revenue-producing.As is\u2019 well known the tax on wheat and most of the other taxes on agricultural products have been put into successive tariff jaws for the purpose of deceiving the farmers of°the country into the belief that in some way they are benefited by protection.Its repeal would not affect the price of wheat by a fraction of a cent, and it would directly benefit the millers and all of the transportation lines between the Cang- dian wheat fields and the American mills and between the mills and the seaboard.Apple Shipments From All the Ports The total apple shipments, all ports for the week ended Sept To foro Sept.19 follows: \u2014 om To

business ean be done at the present ruling prices.Finest wns offered last night at 44s to no purpose, and in some cases other shippers stated that the best prices their correspondents would offer was about 8%c.Such an offer is\u2019at présent out of the question.As we stated yesterday, however, there is no doubt that transactions are taking place at full prices, for at country points shippers are paying 8¥%c to 8%c for French cheese, and at Campbellford as much as 8c was conceded.Perhaps, however, this business is on account of shippers who made forward sales of Septembers all the way from 3»s to 468, but at the same time while buyers will find it necessary under compulsion to pay full prices, sellers will, of course, refuse: to reduce them.The price for finest Onta- rios ruling to-day was 93%c; finest Townships, Bléc ,and finest Quebecs, 8%c to 9c.Towards the close of the month there will be an increase in the insurance rates, and this pat- urally will Influence future values.The supplies in London on the 8th were 60,000 boxes, which is a comparative decreare of 24,000 boxes as compared with this date last year and \"30,000 as compared with the same date in 1902.; ; Butter.\u2014There is a slight falling off in the demand, although the tone of the market continues strong.It would appear that the increase in prices has been too rapid to Keep pace with a healthy demand.Finest Townships were to-day selling at 20%c to\u2019 20%e, and Quebec at 20c to 20%¢, but exporters largely won't give {helt prices, the limit c to c per .less.[ veine He ves cannot be called dear at present rates, and the winter requirements of local jobbers, no doubt to some extent, af- tects the existing situation.More factories may turn their attention to butter as the cool weather continues, and if the difference In prices Is kept; up the output of cheese for the fall will surely decrease.; J \u2018The Cheese Boards eliford, Ont., Sept.20.\u2014~At the cheese ea 1.470 boxes

short runs and consequently higher prices.This applies both Canadian and American fish- éries, anll dealers are beginning to speculate as to whether or not the wholesale slaughter of these fish, which was the usual thing a few years ago, hag not been the cause of this gradual diminuition in the annual supply, and the opinion has been expressed by\u2019 men interested in the Canadian trade, that the Governments of the two countries interested should look Into the matter, and if necessary take legislative steps to preserve the fish from ultimate extinction.Hogs and Provisioris The demand for

Angenlous false cover, which diverted cash dnd tickets from thelr legitimate place ot deposit ipside the Box.bid City Detective McLaughlin, and three members of the staff of Thiel's Agency testified against accused, McLaughlin demonstrating to tbe court how the manipulation of a strip of wood on the under side of the false cover prevented tickets or money going straight into the box, turning these aside to where they could easily he appropriated by Harrington.The ofticers from Thiel's sald they had on various occasions watched accused at work.on his car, and had observed him\u2019 adroitly slip the lid into position before collecting fare; and afterwards return it to the inside pocket of his coat., The defence was that Harrington was experimenting with à view to turning out an improved collecting box, and a general denial that any thefts had been committed.Owing to the late hour at which evidence concluded, Judge Desnoyers adjourned the case until Saturday for the hearing

London, Sept.21,\u2014The half- yearly report of the Grand Trunk Railway con- taine little more than the preliminary statement issued \u2018a month ago by.the directors.It attributes the poor ;results to the unprecedented severity.of the weather during January, February and March.The efforté made to neu- ducing the expenditure were successful, The general meeting will be held tomorrow week./ Z -_\u2014 BEST PAID LEGISLATORS.The best paid legislators in the world are those in the United States.By an Act of Congress passed tn 1874 the salary of a Senator, representative or delegaté in Congress was fixed at $5,000 per annum, with travelling expenses calculatéd at the rate of 20 cents per mile by the most direct route of usual travel from his place df residence to Washington and back once during each session of Congress.There is also an annual allowance of $125 to each member for stationery.\" Though members of the House of Commons are not paid by the State, or otherwise recompensed for their services, yet they pos- \u201csess many privileges which are denied to the ordinary person.In the first place.they enjoy a limited freedom from arrest during the continuance of the session and forty days before its commencement and after its con- clusfon.This privilege, however, is not claimable for any indictable offence, nor does it protect a member from being committed to prison for contempt of court.GILBERT PARKER AS A POET.In Sir Gilbert Parker's new romance, \"A Ladder of Swords,\u2019\u201d\u2019 occur several poems which, though printed between quotations, were written by the author himself.There are thé sailor\u2019s chantey on page 34, a lilting drinking song on page 66, the fool's songs on pages 102, 178, 179 and 265, and the songs on pages 222 and 257.Sir Gilbert Parker published a volume of poems some years ago, entitled \u2018A Lover's Diary.\u201d Following ta one of the songs sung by Queen Elizabeth's fool in \u2018A.Ladder of Swords\u2019: , \u201cWho would lle down and close his eyes While yet the lark sings o'er the dale?Who would to Love make no replies, Nor drink the nut-brown ale, While throbs the pulse, and full's the purse And all the world\u2019s for sale?\u201cThough wintry blasts may prove unkind, When winter's past we do forget: Love's breast in summer-time is kind, And all's well while life's with us yet\u2014 , Hey, ho, now the lark is mating, Life's sweet, wages are in waiting!\u201d \u2014_ ODDITIES OF MARRIAGE.The wedding ring of the Romans was worn on the thumb.\u2019 Spanish peasants believe that the water in which a wedding ring has been dipped will cure sore eyes.When Mary Stuart was married to Lord Darnley four rings were used in the wedding ceremony.\u2018 Every finger of the hand has, at some time or the other, been used for the wedding ring.The Roman bride when being dressed invariably had her hair parted with the point of a Bpear.- At a certain part of the marriage ceremony in Java the bride washes the feet of the bridegroom.In Morocco the bride has to \u201csubmit to having her face painted white and red, and her hauds and feet dyed yellow with henna.The wedding ring worn on the left hand is symbolical of obedience.J _ TAKING THE FARMER DOWN.A couple of individuals were recently gazing with admiration at a fine fat beast at a cattle show.ot \u201cI wonder what his weight might be?\u201d observed one of them, who, as it happened, was a Cockney without any special knowledge.\u201cIt's easy enough to guess pretty nigh it,\u201d said the other man, a stalwart farmer, looking with \u20acome contempt at his companion, .\u201cOh, well,\u201d sald the Cockney, \u201cI think I could guess as near as you can,\u201d \u201cCould ye, now?\u201d roared the farmer.\u201cWell, I'll bet ye a sovereign ye can't.\u201d \u201cpone!\u201d returned the Cockney.\u201cHow much do you say?\u201d After a critical survey the replied: .\u201cA hundred and seventeen stone.\u201d \u201cWell,\u201d sald the Cockney, \u201cI'll say a hundred and seventeen stone, too.Now hand over the money.\u201d \u201cWhat d'ye mean?\u201d \u201cWell, 1 Bald I'd guess as near as you, and I've done so.I've guessed exactly the same.\u2019 ; oo And the bystanders taking hid part, the bumptious farmer had to give him the money.\u2014Tidbits.farmer SEPT.21st - 1806 a long cul sess pork, $17; heavy \u2018 - , w tralize the diminishing revenue by re- e -j Merchante Cotton est Account +.HÉAD OFFICE = ee.i=.TORONTOA corner of St.James and McGill Sts, General Banking Business.RE Savings Department.Sterling Exchange.J.A.RICHARDSON Manages., Lukis, Stewart & Co, INSURANCE.Fire Life Marine.!
