but it was not until con- \u201cderation that abiding regulations were \u201cten foot for the public safety through \u201cie perfecting of sanitary measures which \u201cere applied in turn to all the provinces, With great succinctness, the résident described the sanitary laws of Huekee and Ontario, the Lower Provin- es,\u2014inde~d, all the provinces\u2014pointing fut the desree of interference of the flee power, the rights of the munici- bi, thé powers conferred upon the AT L provincial boards of health, and \u201coe renls which had flowed from the \u201crs adopted Ly these bodies.From \u201cnot would appear that Canada was De cul ete other civilized rations of \u201cVoss on the laws she had enacted Lac relié safety, The paper was Ce exposé of our sapitary and CR 43, and was warmly applaud- 3 vost subicet jatroluced for general | \u201csf How far should manda- \u2018res go in dealing with (a) © whooping cough, (c) tuber- ard od) leprosy.\u2019 Dr.P.H.,, 37 te'arv of the Provineial Board +27, Toronto, contributed the first | I paper on the subject.Dealing with measles and whooping cough, the speaker pointed out the ineffectuality of the measures which had been adopted in England for the stampmg out of the dis- vase, as contrasted with the success attending efforts to get rid of smallpox, diphtheria and scarlet fever.It was shown that public opinion was not edu- cited up to the point to believe or understand that measles, for instance, was a contagious disease.This rendered it necessary for the health authorities to proceed with caution.At the same time the medical profession itself should do something towards the enlightenim\u2026ent of the people as to the undoubted contagiousness of this disease, which annually carried off so many valuable lives.Were the conditions in Ontario as to civic populations similar to those which obtained in England, doubtless they would have as high a mortality as they had in the latter country, despite all that hed been done.He would recommend daily nctification on the part of the teachers in the public schools as to absent children; immediate investigation of every case by the truant officer, to be followed: by examination on the part of the health officer or medical man, so as to find out the cause of the illness; notification on the part of the teachers of any further ceses; compulsory notification by the 1 householder; the home to be placarded; the case to be isolated as far as possible.The same rules he would apply to whooping cough.As to leprosy, they did not suffer from that disease in Canada, but as to tuberculosis, he would recommend notification to .municipal authorities, the isolation of the patient as far as possible in the home, and the erection by the authorities of hospitals for consumptives.The medical profession disliked to urge notification or segregation, but having regard to the fact that ccnsumption was highly contagious, it was high time that vigorous remedies should be applied.Dr.C.O.Probst, secretary of the State Board of: Health, Obio, followed with a well thought-out paper on the same subject.He recommended mandatory measures to some extent, but in the case of many families attacked with measles, say, or whooping cough, you would first have to teach them to know that they had got the diseases before you could logically compel them to apply your prescribed regulations.It had been said that education should precede compulsion, but you cannot have all the people educated up to the same level at once, and intelligent people must make Jaws for the general safety.In the case of tuberculosis, he fecommended the® disinfecting of the sputum, the notification of the presence of the disease and the dis infecting of the houses in which patients died; further, he held that the Federal Gcvernment should build consumptive Lespitals for the army amd navy in the United States.Dr.I.Handford, medical offic.r of health to the county of Nottingham, England, added a few words.He did not believe in compuisory measures, - .a usa TE in bm A i le mmm ape be no ESAT eT ATT CE ; believed in the education of public opinion.He knew that in the case of scarlet fever ninety-five percent of the cases with which he was acquainted had heen sent voluuntarily to the isolation hog pital, through the advauce of public opinion on the matter.Dr.Aldbridge, Toronto, said that before they began compulsory measures with respect to measles and whooping- cough and tuberculosis they should think whether they intended to carry them out to the end, in spite of opposition.It brought law into contempt if it was not firmly and constantly enforced.With regard to consumption, they had had in Toronto a great deal of discussion about milk, and the result of that was that persons whose cows stood the tuberculin test had placards upon their waggons and stores to that effect.The public soon found such persons out.The railway cars were a source of con- su > MEDICAL ASSOCIATION, Presentation of delegates by the President, Dr.Roddick, to the Governor-General.A which had failed in England, but rather tagion.The rugs in the berths were : not washed for a long time, and as these had come in contact with the mouths of -tnereulous pañééhgers, the danger-was7 great.- Then there was the danger of mixed infection in the isolation hospitals.He certainly thought that notification should be made compulsory in the case of measles.Several English members took part in the discussion, from which it was elicited that onc great cause of consumption in the Old Country was overcrowding.While, however, it was agreed that laws should be made regulating tenement life and insisting upon the requisite number of cubic feet for eackr individual, the English members were averse to a series of compulsory laws regulating the treatment of the disease, trusting rather to the effect of {he education of public opinion.This afternoon, Dr.William Oeler, ON » NS - NA NSN a SI Ree J 7 1 JW as pu iy PROFESSOR RICHET, Delegate of the University of Paris to the British Medical Association., 9 | qe rn apn a re AR A Se \u2014- ete es x a RE BN RE CEE = |.EY EI te Xr P= UY VE Lar 3 8 $ quent address on \u201cMedicine, in the Windsor Hall, at the conclusion of which the ceremony of conferring honorary degrees upon several distinguished members of the association was gone through by the convocation of McGill University, of which Lord Strathcona and Mount Royal is Chancellor.The subsequent functions were :\u2014Run- ning the rapids, garden party in the grounds of the Victoria Hospital, and reception to-night by Lord Strathcona and Mount Royal at the beautiful residence of the latter oh Dorchester street.After their meeting yesterday after- \u2018| noon the members of the British Medical Association enjoyed a trip about the city on the electric cars.They were thus affasded an opportunity of seeing a eat deal of Montreal and were very favorably impressed with the city.Ten other sectichal\u201d meetirigs were in \u2018| pregress between 6.30 a.m.and 1 p.m.to-day, in different parts of the college buildings.discussion was \u2018 Arthritis deformans (rheumatoid arthritis), more especially its relation to rheumatism, nervous dis- case, and tuberculosis.\u201d The discussion was opened by Dr.James Stewart, Montreal, and continued by Dr.H.Hendford, Nottingham;

then, too, not more than half a dozen placards have been posted advertising the, exhibition, and many do not know where it may be found.The museum fs in the Victoria Skating Rink, Drummond street, right Lack of the Windsor Hotel.It will be open all day every-day this week;

bereavement of Judge Ouimet in the death of his wife, which occurred last evening, prevented his presiding on.the bench and his place was filled by Sir Alexander Lacoste, Chief Justice.The nam.es of the grand jurors are as follows: Placide Decarie (foreman), Joseph Cus son, Joseph Brien dit Durocher, Michel Valois, Alexander Lecavalier, De Sales Tourville, Michael Donnelly, Moses Greenberg, Maurice Michaels and Gev.P.Walker, Joseph McLean made default and was fined five dollars.Mr.A.Mec- Gowan, on behalf of Mr.Walker, made an appeal for exemption on the ground that his client had been summoned as a witness in the Recorder's Court.\u2018You can tell the Recorder,\u201d said Sir Alexander, \u2018that the case will have to be postponed as we require Mr.Walker's presence here.\u2019 : His Honor\u2019s address to the grand jury was short and to the point.It simply pointed out the duties of the occasion, which were to guarantee the peace and liberty of the subjeet.No opinion was to be given as to the guilt or innocence of an accused, but all that the grand jurors were to decide was whether in their opinion the Crown had a sufficiently strong case to go before a petit jury.Frivolous charges should be rejected, but on the other hand duty must be done irrespective of fear or favor and all outside influences had to be avoided.After the grand jury filed out the work of calling out the names of the petit jury panel was proceeded with.Three were excused for cause, one of whom, Thomas Collinsy~froved he was worth a hundred and seventy-five thousand dollars, and therefore entitled to be a grand juror.One juror made default but was given until to-morrow morning to put in an appearance.The accused on bail were then summoned and Hubert Jolicoeur, James Jordan, Israel Raymond and Oli vier (\u2018harbonneau made default.There was a fair array of counsel in court, Mr.Cooke, ex-M.P.P., making his first appearance as Crown Prosecutor before the court.Mr.James Crankshaw, just returned from England, was also present.The Court adjourned until three o'clock this afternoon.Le DEATH OF MRS.OUIMET.\u2018 Mrs.Ouimet, wife of the Hon.Judge, Alderic Ouimet, of the Court of Queen\u2019s Bench, died yesterday afternoon at five 0\u2019clock after a painful iliness, lasting two weeks.Mrs.Ouimetÿ nee Marie Josephe Therese La Rocque, was the only daughter of the late Alfred La Rocque and Dame Amelie Berthelet, and was born in Paris on March 21, 1856.She was married to Mr.J.A.Ouimet in July, 1873, and had thirteen children, six of whom survive her.She was the sister of Chevalier La Rocque, the well-known ex-pon- tifical zouave.Mrs.Ouimet was a leading fignre in French-Canadian society and having inherited from her parents both wealth ard charitable disposition always took a prominent part in all benevolent work.As a wife and a mother her virtues were many, and the Christian fortitude with which she hore her illness was no surprise to those who knew her.The Hon.Judge Ouimet and his family will have the sympathy of a large number of friends in their sad bereavement.The funeral will take place on Friday next at 9 a.m.\u2014\u2014 FATAL FALL FROM A WAGGON.Yesterday afternoon Richard H.Hennessy, aged forty-eight, when returning from Bonsecours Market to his home, jumped or fell from his waggon at the corner of Rachel street and Papineau avenue, and was instantly killed.The body was at once removed to the morgue and the coroner was communicated with, who, having ascertained the facts, did mot \"consider it necessary to summon a jury.Hennessy was a native of Ireland and a gardener by calling.He had for merly served in the British army, having come to Montreal with one of the battalions of the King\u2019s Royal Rifles.\u2014\u2014\u2014 pe\" \"2e WHEELMEN MUST HAVE LAMPS.Four young men, for riding bicycles at night in Westmount without lamps, were this morning condemned by Recorder Mec- Mahon to a fine of one dollar or eight days\u2019 imprisonment.In this matter the \u2018authorities cf Westmount state no distinction will be made nor any excuse as to ignorance of the by-law, or so forth, will be accepted, and all bicyclists should know that lamps on their machines are necessary and insisted on when passing through even a portion of Westmount.HE BROKE HIS ARM.The Notre Dame ambulance was

ALIENS.The nickel deposits of Ontario which arn situated near Sudbury om the line of «>» Canadian Pacific Railway, are, as evorvone knows, one of the most valu- ao of the Dominion\u2019s aseets, especially 1 view of the fact that nickel has come to Ye regarded ugs absolutely necessary tar the arming of naval vessels.It ap- reas from a letter of Mr.S.J.Ritchie tr \u2018he Toronto \u2018 Globe,\u2019 that Americans are intriguing and scheming to secure a ewnopoly of the whole deposit, and tza: they are preventing the development of the mining and manufacturing of the cre, with the object of reducing the pre- se-: ralue of the mines and of eventually suatfacturing the ore in the United sates.Mr.Ritchie writes: \u2014 \u201cMy attention has this moment been cs») to an editorial i the \u2018 Globe\u2019 of \\' nday the 16th inst., entitled \u2018Nickel Amor for Britain.\u2019 The subject covered = this article is one of the greatest im- -rtance, both for Canada end for Bri- tn, and it is constantly becoming more Canada has the only nickel deposits ¢ any value upon this hemisphere.These deposits enable her to control the ¢rency of the navies of the world.sce has already contributed, and con- rues to contribute, to make the armor rates of the United States navy, the rst invulnerable in the world.The eat plants of the Bethlehem Iron Works and of the Carnegie Steel Comp:ny are now furnishing armor plates aloyed with Canadian nickel fot the ravr of Russia, and last comes the great pavy of the world, the navy of Great Pr:tain, to adopt nickel steel.The president of the Iron and Steel Institute of Great Britain told me that the time was a: hand when every warship in Her Maiesty'a service would have to be re-clad «th nickel steel.What does all this mean for Canada?What dees Canada\u2019s control and monopoly of this material mean for the empire?No known mineral deposits upon this continent are equal in strength and mag- n'tude to those Sudbury deposits.What has been the history of their ec- quisition, management and the legal status under which the corporations owning them are, and have been, permitted to carry on business in Canada?First, they were acquired to aid the Central Ontario Railway, a corporation jointly built by Canadians and Americans; that road not proving self-support- | ig because the iron ores which the road was built to haul to the lake were found t> contain #0 much sulphur that they were unworkable.#* THE COMPAXIES FORMED.Separate corporations were formed to sperate these copper, nickel and iron de- rosits, with the understanding and agree- nent that these corporations and the milway for whose interests the properties were purchased should be unirl 59 one property.Two corporations were or- mnized at Cleveland under the laws of Ohio, the one known as the Canadian Capper Company, and the other as the Anglo-American Iron Company.Neither ci these companies owned any ores or any poperty m Ohio or in the United \u201ctates.All their property was in Can- ada\u2014all in Ontario.It was necessary that these companies should have some \u2018ranchise to carry on business in Canada, as they had nothing with which to carry on any business in the United States.Under these circumstances I went to the Dominion Parliament in February, 1886, and asked from the Dominion Parliament a charter ratifying our Chio charter.Mr.John Bell, Q.C., drew the bill asking this power and ratification cf the Ohjo charter from the Dominion Parliament.In this bill we asked of l\u2019arlia- ment that \u2018the raid company shall have fal) power to sell the products cf thej wines in any part of Canada or eld.where, and to establish treating cr smelting works in any province of C.nada or elsewhere, as in the interest of the company may be found expedient.\u2019 The right to establish treating or smelting | works \u2018 elsewhere\u2019 than in Canada loth the government and the Committe on Private Bills promptly refused !o grant, Of course the company could build such works in Ohio under its Ghis charter if it saw fit, but it had nothing on which tn operate such works but Canadian eres or mattes.If the government hail grant- el the company the right \u2018> establish such works outside of Canada, nnder the Canadian charter, it would have surren- Gerel its own right and powor to impose an export duty upon any of the materials produced by these companies.This, both the government and the committee firm- Iv refused to do.I was president Gf the topper company and vice-president of the iron company at the time I was before the government asking for these Canadian Crarters, and as a condition of their being franted, T agreed with and promised the fovernment that all the smeltmg and re- \u201cEng of

Intrigde to Mono- a PROS ON 1897, Private Bills at the time this charter was granted:\u2014 House of Commons, April, 1897.S.J, Ritchie, Fsq., My dear sir,\u2014I have your letter of the 20th instant referring to the passing of two acts in 1836, the one respecting the Canadian Copper Company, and the other respecting.the \u2018Anglo-American Iron Company, I was the chairman of the Private Bills Committee of the House of Commons at that time and have to-day refreshed my memory by looking over the original records.I find that the bills as brought before the committee, asked power to establish treat ing and smelting works in any Province of Canada or elsewhere.The words \u2018or elsewhere\u2019 were stricken out by the committee, with the view of forcing the companies to treat and refine their ores in Canada.Very truly yours, (Signed.) W.B.IVES.CHARTER DISREGARDED.For nearly ten years the operation-and management of these companies has been under the present control.It has been in utter disregard of the interests of the Canadian Governments, both Dominion and Provincial.© In utter disregard of the interests of Canadian investors and the Canadian people, it has proceeded under the judicial safe conduct of an American court, which has been presented before the American Congress for the impeachment, and would have been again presented before the last session of Congress had there been any committees appointed in the House before whom charges could be preferred.It will be again presented at the next session of Congress, when a Judiciary Committee is appointed.- The question before the Canadian people now is, can such a combination outside your country, operating by such methods, reach its hands into your country, seize upon your most valuable asset, appropriate it to themselves in defiance of your parliaments and your courts, in defiance of the interests and great investments of your own citizens and those who have fought in season and out of season, both for the interests of your country and your people on both sides of the national boundary line.Proceedings are now pending before the Atorney- General of the Dominion for the forfeiture of the charter of the Canadian Copper Company for the high-handed manner in which it has violated its chartered rights.The Vermillion Mining Company is an Ontario corporation, belonging to the Canadian Copper Company.For eight vears it has been kept in a state of complete idleness, and proceedings are pending before the Ontario (rov- ernment for the forfeiture of its charter.Both the Dominion and Provincial Governments have offered the most liberal aid to both these corporations, as well as to the railway, to have these corporations operated upon a large scale, with all their work done in Canada : towns and cities have made similar offers.All these offers have been refused and the arrangefnents broken up by the present management, with the object and purpose of destroying the earning power and selling value of one and all of them until they could be gotten into a few hands, wholly outside of Canada.Can such methods and such management succeed against both Canada and Britain at the expense of destroying the interests and investments of your own people ?Your governments, your courts and your people are the proper authorities to answer this question.I speak of what I know in this matter, as every ton of copper and nickel ore owned by these corporations was gotten by myself.\u2014\u2014\u2014 A KINGSTON MARRIAGE.THE BRIDE A DAUGHTER OF LIEUT, COL.GORDON, D.0.C., OF MONTREAL.Kingston, Ont., Sept.1.\u2014An exception- Pally pretty wedding took place at St.i George's Cathedral this morning, when | Miss Kathleen Moore Gordon, eldest daughter of Lieut.-Col.W.D.Gordon, | D.O.C., of Montreal, and originally of Kingston, and Mr.Arthur Breden Cunningham, barrister, of this city, were united in marriage.No invitations were issued except to immediate relatives of the bride and groom.The cathedral, however, was thronged with people who assembled to witness the ceremony performed by the Very Reverend, the Dean of Ontario, assisted by the Rev.G.R.Beamish.The full choral service was rendered by the surpliced choir.The bridal party entered the cathedral while the processional wedding hymn, \u2018The Voice that DBreathed o'er Eden, was given.The bridesmaids and maids of honor were, Misses Besfie and Nora Gordon, sisters of the bride; Miss Florence Cunningham, sister of the groom; Misses Nora Hill Macnee, Doris Kent, Helen Gordon, Margaret Maclennan, Marjorie Pense and Hilda Kent.The toilettes of the bridesmaids and maids of honor were most handsome, and all wore frocks of .Knowy muslin.The groomsman was Mr, Ernest Cunningham, brother of the groom.The cathedral was tastefully- decorated with flowers.After the ceremony a family reception was held at \u2018 Somers- by House,\u2019 the residence of Mrs.Rybert Kent, aunt of the bride, where a bewildering array of beautiful gifts bore silent testimony to the esteem in which the popular young bride and groom are held.The couple left at nocn on the east-bound train.rente MAGDALEN ISLANDS FISHERIES.Ottawa, Sept.1.\u2014Urgent appeals arc being made to the Department of Marine and Fisheries to extend the fishing season at the Magdalen Islands on the ; ground that if this is not done the local fishermen will be face to face with starvation.The local members of Parliament and one or two clergymén have sent telegrams of the most urgent kind, and a | reply is expreted within a day or two.= Tess A Lg SOME HARD FACTS.\u2014 SEAMY SIDE OF THE KLONDIKE GOLD REGIONS.\u2014 STARVATION AND DEATH BTARING MANY IN TEE.FACE\u2014C.P.B.LINE TO BE OPENED UP.Seattle, Sept.1\u2014Mr.H.N.Stanley, who went to St.Michael\u2019s for the Associated Press, returned to this city on the steamer \u2018Portland.\u2019 He says: \u2018I was seven weeks at the mouth of the Yukon at St.Michael's, where I saw all the miners coming out and interviewed them.As a result I feel it my duty to advise everybody to stay out until next spring.Wild, and, in many cases, exaggerated reports have been circulated since the first discoveries were made.The strike, however, was and is one-of the greatest, if not the greatest, in the world\u2019s history.Probably two million dollars was cleaned up this spring and next spring I look for from five to seven million dollars.The fields have bardly been opened up as yet, but those going in now must bear in mind that everything in that region was staked long before any reports reached the outer world and that those going in now must prospect for themselves, buy claims from the present owners, or work for the owners.No new strike had been reported up to the time of my leaving St.Michael's, and another may not be made for tive years.STARVATION \u2018THREATENED.\u2018T am aware there is a popular impression that supplies can be bought in the \u2018vicinity of the mines.They may at present buy at six times Seattle prices, but they are taken at even those Reg fast er than they can be got in, and Pefore winter is half over, if the present population stays in, there will be actual starvation.The average man requires about a ton of carefully selected food and clothing for a year\u2019s supplies.In the summer of 1806, about three thousand five hundred tons of supplies went up the river, and the new population of fifteen hun: dred to two thousand suffered from want.Of this three thousand five hundred tons probably fifteen hundred tons were rum, tools, furniture, and supplies other than provisions.This season, allowing the most favorable cireumstances, not more than four thousand two hundred tons of supplies can be got up the river, fully half of which is rum and tools, as well as supplies other than food.There are more than three times as many people there than last winter.Figure it out for yourself.Focd was completely cleaned out this spring, and last winter there* was such a scarcity that moose hams sold for thirty dollars each; flour, a hundred and twenty dollars per bundred pounds; bacon, one dollar per pound.What will not happen this coming winter ?Why will not people actually starve to death ?As to shelter, ninety percent of Dawson was living in tents in July; labor is ecarce, and houses cannot be built.How are seven thousand people to withstand the rigor of a nine months\u2019 winter of semidarkness when the mercury goes down to seventy degrees below zero ?DOUBTFUL WORK FOR WINTER.\u2018As to labor, it 18 true tbat last win- ter\u2014the winter succeeding the great strike when men were scarce\u2014wages were fifteen dollars a aay, but if no new strike is made what is to keep wages up this winter ?There are but three hundred and forty claims on Bopanza, Eldorado and Hunker Creelts that will probably be worked this winter.An average of eight men to each is, I think, liberal.If but two thousand seven hundred men are employed, and there are five thousand or more seeking work, what must be the result 7 Wages must go down.I am told that much grub has gone over the divide, yet from what I know 1 would wagez my last dollar that not to exceed five hundred tons of supplies over and above what the carriers ate will reach the diggings.No man going in can arrive with more than a four months\u2019 supply.\u2018I am also told that there is plenty at St.Michael's.So there may be, but after Sept.15 it might as well bein New York City, for to try to transport it by dog train or sled over two thousand miles of icy river is absolutely impossible.There is not, nor will there ever be, a dog train that can take enough to feed itself over twelve hundred miles.Relief is, therefore, impossible.TRAILS CLOSED TO SUPPLIES.\u2018To draw provisions for the trip from Dyea to Dawson any time before the spring breaks up is an impossibility.Re: lief for those caught in the Klondike after winter sets in is equally impossible, so in the name of humanity I ask that a stop be put to this wholesale transportation of people without supplies.Let no man be allowed to enter that region un- lesshe carries with him enough food and clothing to Jast him a year.There are women and little children.in there today who should be sent out as far as St.| Michael's before navigation closes.I hear much of the boats that are building to go up the river, but, aside from one steamer ready on Aug.ll, no new boat can be added to the carrying craft this fæll.The Klondike is\u2019 a land of ice and snow as well as a land of gold.Let it not be made a land of gaunt hunger, wretchedness, and death.Tet no one be allowed: to wrest from the fcolish people a few hundred thousand saved, borrowed or begged dollars.There will be as good chances for mining in the future as now.Let the people wait.This is not a Cripple _THE.MONTREAL DAILY.WITNESS.\u201cLE Mian in THE OUTPUT OF GOLD.- Washington, iSept.1.\u2014Mr.Preston, director of the Mint, wes asked to-day : what estimate he had made as to the amount of gold brought into the United States from -Klondike since the recent discoveries.He anewered that he had been obliged to depend largely on news: paper: publications, instead of official da- judgment, but He should say, roughly, that the arrival of the \u2018Portland\u2019 had brought the total up to about $2,500,000.As to the future, he father expected the \u2018navigation.The \u2018Portland\u2019 would make one more trip, being due at Seattle on her return about Oct.10.On that last voyage home she would probably bring in a large hody of miners who did not wish to spend the winter in the Klondike and who would bring the bulk of their gold with them, so as to have its trans portation under their own eyes.Not all of the gold brought in for some months past should, in Mr, Preston\u2019s judgment, be credited to the Klondike.Much of it, he thought, must have come from Circie City and Fortymile Creek.OC.P.R.TO ESTABLISH A LINE, Vancouver, B.C., Sept.1\u2014Mr.T.G.Shaughnessy, vice-president of the Canadian Pacific Railway, is now here and was interviewed by the City Council and Board of Trade this morning.In reply to the various matters brought up Mr.Shaughnessy stated that his company had now under consideration the question of a direct service to the Yukon, and at the present time one of the officers of the company wae arranging for the ne- \u2018cessary steamers.He also stated that the company intended to put on a much better service between Vancouver and Vie- toria.He then briefly referred to the company\u2019s service in the Kootenay, stating that in a short time Rossland would be reached from here in a day.Winnipeg, Man., Aug.31.\u2014Dr.Dawsvn, who passed through here yesterday en route west, was interviewed regarding the \u2018Yukon country, with which he is familiar, and in speaking of the various routes stated that the one via Edmonton would be found the most feasible.* LETTER FROM A GLENGARRIAN.Cornwall, Sept.1.\u2014Mrs.A.G.A.Robinson, whose husband, an old Transvaal miner, left for the Klondike a few weeks ago with a Montreal party, has received a letter from hirn.The letter was written from Victorin, B.C., on Aug.15, and describes the journey that far.That evening they were to take the steamer \u2018Islander\u2019 for Dyea.All were in the best of spirits and were thoroughly equipped for the expedition, The provisions consist cof flour, oatmeal, peas, beans, cornmenl, dried peaches, quinces, apples, condensed milk, tea, cccoa, coffee, lime juice, barrelled pork and beef, vinegar and rum, candles and pressed vegetables.All have éilsking, sou\u2019westers and rubber boots.Fach man has a Winchester repeater, compass and tools.Mr.Robinson says: \u2018There is a Mr.Me- + Donald from Glen Nevis here, and going up on the same hoat, but with another party.We are in the best of spirits, and have a fiddle, tin-whistle and a mouth- organ.If I get back all right I feel sure I shall have something to show.This is the best equipped expedition ever taken out.Things can be bought here as cheap as in Montreal.\u2019 \u2019 GOLD IN ALASKA.Tacoma, Wash., Ang.31.\u2014A letter to the \u2018Ledger\u2019 has just been received from the north fork of the McMillan river, Alaska, from George Temmon, addressed to his wife in South Tacoma\u2019 giving particulars of a fabulously rich strike.Me and his partner went there from the Yukon on information from an Indian who accompanied them last spring, and he says that they have struck a locality richer than the Klondike.In three $55,000.The letter was sent down by the Indian, who tcak five hundred dollars or six hundred dollars worth of nug- gots to lay in fresh supplies for the win- tor.Seattle, Wash,, Aug.31.\u2014Anxiety as o the fate of the Yukon river steamer, P.B.Weare,\u201d said to be laden with gold, is set at rest by advices that the \u2018Weare\u2019 was tied up near Circle City, repairing her boiler fluo, Kingston, Ont, Aug.31\u2014Prof.Carr Harris is homeward bound from Vancouver, B.C., having wjsely decided that he, could not make the Yukon this year and Kingston would be a

Sir Adolphe Chapleau, with a touch of his old fire, captivated the audience by a mingled grace and eloquence, while His Worship the Mayor, in behalf of the city, tendered fervent greeting.The Mayor was a little flamboyant 1m his description of the resources and climate of Canada, the institutions and prosperity of Montreal, and rather sug gested a flattering inventorial appraise- ment ; but it all meant that all we had und were were at the disposal of the distinguished body which had done Montreal so much honor as to make it the place of meeting.We were a free, a loyal people ; we celebrated the diamond jubilee with as much heartiness as was manifested in any part of the empire.This great body could see what we were; they could note our institutions, our churches, our hospitals, our universities, and they could, upon their return, tell the people that Canada was a great country, not nd of snow at all, but a land of shine, of illimitable resources, etc His Worship waxed eloquent over the oneness of sentiment which prevailed in this province between the two racer, and he was hopeful that this meeting would be a benefit to the ccuntry through the dissemination in the mother country of correct information regarding it.But whether His Worship was hyperbolical or literal, what he said, through all the changes of phrase, was \u2018Welcome.\u2019 This, too, was the burden of Sir Adolphe Chapleau\u2019s address ; but in the case of the silver-tongued orator, the ornate and the dramatic was to be expected.The lieutenant-governor was in a peculiarly happy vein.He referred to the known hospitality of the Province of Quebec, and dwelt for a moment upon the engaging qualities which we evolved by a blend of the English and the French.He proclaimed himself a Brit- isker, at which there was great cheering, and laid his homage at the feet of the sovereign who had given them their liberties.It was with a swelling breast and a glowing eye that Sir Adolphe declared that their loyalty was free, that their liberties were their own, and that their hearts and \u2018sentiments were uncontrolled, but when he turned to His Excellency and said they were willing in the Province of Quebec to give to this distinguished body not only their hospitality but their unpurchasable love, it was with all the grace and charm of man- rer and attitude for which he is so noted.He spoke from the heart, he said, although in the English tongue he perhaps could not find the fitting expression.Nevertheless, he had always found that when you had it in your heart to say a ting, you generally managed to make isclogsure.He said, then, \u2018Welcome ; come to our homes and hearts; stay with us; we wish your meeting to be successful, and we expect that the results will be eminently fruitful.\u2019 The frankness of His Honor, and the fact that, French-Canadian that he was, he uttered sentiments which outdid even the English for loyalty, captivated the audience, who, when he sat down, cheered and clapped and stamped their tumultuous delight.The Governor-General was delicate and witty, and conveyed the larger welcome of the Dominion to the association.He set forth the noble work in which they | were engaged as alone sufficient to justify ! the warmest welcome ; but chiefly urged the tie of kith and kin\u2014brotherhood\u2014as having the most immediate urgency.The foreign delegates and invited guests were at this point called out by name and introduced to Dr.Roddick, as the president, and the Governor-General.To be sure, the chief event of the afternoon was the reading of Dr.Roddick\u2019s address.This proved to be at once a strong and graceful composition, being equally marked by directness, sympathy and intimate acquaintance with the subjects touched upon.These were various, and a large field was covered.In- deed, it was found that time did not per mit of the traversing of it completely, | and the genial doctor did not hesitate to | deal with himself as faithfully as he does: with his patients.With a courage rare in one who deems he has something of .importance to communicate to his fellow | creatures, he made excisions with an un- | sparing hand\u2014excisions which Lord Lis- tical problems of life and environment.: the Mayor for their kindness in gracing ter subsequently publicly regretted, ex-| At the same Lime, we were evolving a i the occasion.pressing the hope that the address would native literature, and Mr.Dudley War- at least appear in all its fulness in their own journals.The president dwelt, first of all, upon the favorable auspices under which the association met.He said happy things about the Governor-General, the Lieuten- ant-Governor, and the worthy Mayor, who, as a warm-hearted Irishman, had given them a \u2018cead miile failthe\u2019 ; about the representative of France, Professor Richet, who would find himself in a friendly environment and amongst a people who spoke the French tongue in all its original purity.When, however, he alluded to I.ord Lister as one who had been the means of saving thousands of lives through the introduction of antiseptic surgery, and who had made it possible for the surgeon to perform operations with safety and success which, twenty years ago, would have been deemed criminal, the wildest applause broke nut, most of the audience rising to their feet and waving their handkerchiefs, to the manifest confusion of him who was the subject of the demonstration.The address dealt with the rise and progress of the association ; of the forma- ! tion of the C\u2018anadian Association, and the realization of the long-cherished THE MONTREAL + \u2018 \u2018ner was very wide of the mark ifideed when he stated that by reason of our extreme coldness cur intellectual faculties were benumbed.If he had said that owing to the heat of our summers we were enervated intellectually he would bave been less wide of the mark.He would not have been right, but he would have been less wrong.Our educational system was passed in review, while attention was given to the great teaching bodies from which our professional classes came.Praise was bestowed upon such large-hearted philanthropists as Lord Strathcona and Mount Royal (who sat modestly in the background), to the Mol- sons and McDonalds and Mount-Stephens in Canada, to the Rockefellers and Van- derbilts in the United States, for their recognition of the fact that for thorough teaching, universities required to be pn- vately endowed.For his own part he was glad that McGill was a free institn- tion, independent of state aid, for had it been\u201d otherwise she never would have been the recipient of the many favors which had been bestowed upon her and which had enabled her to give a modern scientific education.With regard to medical training, he emphasized the value of \u2018laboratory work, and a preliminary science course, if possible.He approved the new arrangement at McGill whereby the arts course would be combined with medicine ; and with respect to the unhappy state of things which exists in all our provinces as to the lack of medical i reciprocity, he approved, as the best way .| out of the tangle, a central examining board for the whole Dominion which would make uniformity possible.He DAILY WITNESS.LAVAL\u2019S DAY.A BRILLIANT SOCIAL FUNCTION.THE BRITISH MEDICAL ASSOCIATION DULY HONORED BY THE FRENCH UNIVER- BITY.The stately flight of steps that lead to the main entrance of Laval University presented an animated appearance last evening as the hundreds of distinguished guests invited by the medical authorities of the institution arrived in carriages to take part in the reception and conversa- zione organized in honor of the British Medical Association.The balconies and windows of the massive and imposing buildings were ablaze with electric lights and Chinese lanterns, and flags and bunting were displayed in profusion.The scene inside was one of brilliancy and life, and the usual comments on the rich toilets of the ladies secmed for the moment to be left aside for the still more congenial remarks concerning the happy thought that brought together so many representative members of the elite of French and English society.Although limited to the professional ind official world, several hundred invitations had been issued, among those present being His Excellency, Lord Aber- Jeen, Lieutenant-Governor Sir Adolphe Uhapleau, His Grace Mgr.Bruchesi, Archbishop of Montreal and Vice-Chan- i cellor of Laval; Sir Wilfrid Laurier, Premier of Canada ; Lord Lister, Lord Strathcona and Mount Royal, Dr.Rod- recommended to the Australians, wha were thinking of federating their great colonies, that while they might leave edu- | | cation to the several provinces, they | | should insist, as far as medicine was | dick, president of the British Medical Association;

These two great benefactors of humanity, united in their common work, afforded a spectacle never delegate of the Paris University to the ing them from taking possession of the | to be forgotten, a striking reconciliation of medicine with science.\u2019 The lecturer then referred to his own researches and etudies concerning seru:, therapeutics, and how, after discovering that the bodies of certain families of ar.mal individuals which showed themse)v: refractory to the inoculation of ceria.chemicals which counteract the effects.! the specific pathogenic microbe in other individuals of the same species, he cessfully applied the theory to dogs and rabbits, after which he made an atten; | to apply it to tuberculosis in man.T experiments were most Promising at f: but they finally

English-speaking neo ple of the city mingling so heartily :n.gether, as they had everything to eva by knowing one another helter.Refreshments were afterwards served and it was about twelve o'clock

next toasted and \u2018For Hes a Jolly Good Fellow,\u201d heartily sung.7 response.Replying, Lord Aberdeen mus a humorous cpeech in which he sui would be strange if he did not take joa sure in being there to do honor tov\u201d whom Her Gracious Majesty had Deed pleased to raise to the x\u2026>>rage.Se thanked the assembly for the cordiaët.or rather loyalty and cordiality \u201c7! which the toast

Quebec Bir Wilfrid Laurier formally offered the Superior (surt judgeship of the Arthabaska dis- trot, now held by Judge Plamondon, to the \u2018latter\u2019s som-in-law here, Mr.F.X.Lemieux, Q.C., M.P.P., and that Mr.I-mieux accepted.It also mentions that Mr.Lemieux has purchased for bis own use the Premier's residence at Arthabas- ka.Mr.Lemieux\u2019s elevation to the Pench would create vacancies in the Que- tec Legislature for Levis and Bonaven- sire, az at the general election he was ected for beth constituencies.A LINE TO FRANCE.It is stated here on good authority .that before leaving France, Sir Wilind Baurier had an interview with the promoters of a French line of steamships between Canada and Framce, calling at St.Pierre Miquelon, and that he promised to ask Parliament to give it a subsidy où $50,000 in the event of its estab- \\shment.NOTES.Quebec appears to be infested with p::kpockets just now.Quite a large number of people are complaining of hav- :ng been victimized.Heavy frosts and great damage to the crops are reported from different parts of Charlevoix County.Two ruffianly Upper Town carters named Horace and Joseph Caron, were severely punished by the Police Magistrate for a brutal and unprovoked assault on Messrs.P.and J.Dery, of the Quebec Hotel.The fines imposed upon them amounted to nearly a hundred dollars or four months\u2019 imprisonment each, in default of payment.A demand was also made to have their licenses cancelled.\u2018B' Field Battery leaves for Deseronto to-day.A petition of right has been granted to the publishers of the \u2018Evenement\u2019 to sue the Quebec Government for £85,000 damages claimed by them for the cancelling of their pritting contract The Hon.T.Chase Casgrain is attorney for petitioners.Mr.J.N.Bosse, son of Judge Bosse, is to be wedded in November to Miss M.E.Davie, daughter of Mr.G.T.Davie of Levis._ It 1s Yelieved that the human bones found under the floor of a shed in St.John's suburb are these of an old plum- Ler who lived there forty years ago and who mysteriously disappeared.The ribs appear to have been sawn through and the theory is that he was murdered by hs apprentices, to whom he was ex- tremelv harsh.\u2014_\u2014\u2014 DEATH OF BISHOP LEMMONS.FALLS A VICTIM TO YELLOW FEVER IN THE CITY OF GUATEMALA.Victoria, B.C., Sept.1.\u2014General regret is felt in Victoria at the news to-day of Bishop Lemmons's death of yellow fever in Guatemala, as the bishop was highly thought of by all classes of people.Ile went south about a year ago, partly on account of his health, and spent the win: \u2018erin the city of Guatemala.Bishop Lemans was horn on June 3, 1850, in land, and completed his theologidgl Stripes in Belgium, being ordained a briest in Mareh, 1875, at Brussels.Ie (me to

present and future genera- + 1897.THE CUBAN REVOLT.Madrid, Aug.30.\u2014At a Cabinet council held to-day it was decided to summ n the next class of eighty thousand reserves, twenty-seven thousand of whom will be sent to Cuba and thirteen thousand to the Philippine Islands.The ministers, when questioned, denied that the council was occupied with the subject of colonial reforms or with political questions.New York, Aug.31.\u2014A special to the \u2018Herald\u2019 from Havana, Cuba, says :\u2014 Augusto Ariza, a Cuban, and Fernando Pasada, a Portuguese, were shot by a policeman in the streets of this city.They had recently arrived from Mexico.No reason was given by the police for the assassination, but it is thought that General Weyler, who lives in constant fear of being killed, suspected them ot being anarchists.Ariza had letters of irtroduction from the Brazilian consid in Mexico to a prominent provision dealer here.After landing, Ariza toc's breal- fast and then started to present his letter of introduction.As he left bis friend's store he was arrested.Pasada was arrested in the street.Both were carried to the city jail and kept in com- unicado until near midnight.Inspector of Police Cuevas, with four policemen, then took the prisoners from their cells, marched them to the Cerro, and deliberately shot each of them in the back.The presence of a dead-cart in the immediate vicinity showed that the murder had been planned.THE FIRE RECORD.Belleville, Ont, Aug.30.\u2014The Bar building at Massassaga Park was burned on Saturday.Loss about $1,600.It was a new building, owned by II.Corby, M.P., and was insured in the Western for five hundred dollars.The contents were owned by J.V.Jenkins ; insured in the London Mutual for seven hundred dollars.Ridgetown, Ont., Aug.30.\u2014This morning fire started in J.B.Coat¢s\u2019s stave and heading factory, the building being also occupied by Mr.Thomas Steele as a grain warehouse.The fire spread rapidly and completely gutted the building.The loss will be four hundred dollars, covered by insurance.Mr.Steele's loss is two thousand dollars, on which there is an insurance of five hundred dollars.The building was owned by Mr.T.P.Watson, and was fully insured.Binghampton, N.Y., Aug.31.\u2014Fire destroyed the laundry of the Binghamp- ton State Hospital last night.The flames broke out at seven o'clock im the drying room, and although there is a well-drilled and equipped fire company connected with the institution, the flames spread rapidly and a fire engine with a hose company from this city had to give assistance.The property destroyed is valued at $25,000.There was no panic among the inmates.FIRE AT ST.JOHNS, have proved a very serious fire but for the prompt action of the fire brigade and a bountiful supply of weter occurred about three o'clock this morning, beginning in the kiteben on the.second floor in rear of Miss Chagnon\u2019s millinery store en Richelieu street.It communicated to the rear part of Mr.Ed.Arpin\u2019s residence, completely gutting the back rooms.The loss to his store underneath from damage by water will also be serious.The Queen, Wostern, Phoenix, Guardian and Liverpool, London & Globe insurance companies are interested.The loes will amount to several thousand dollars.Mrs.Arpin was aroused by the falling of the window glass broken by the heat, and with great presence of mind closed the door and rushed to the other rooms arousing the family just in time.Mr.Arpin was from home at the time.\u2014___ ONTARIO OPPOSITION CAMPAIGN.Ottawa, Sept.1.\u2014Mr.Whitney's statement in his speech at Owen Sound denying that he was running his campaign without reference\u2019 to Messrs.Wallace or Montague, is believed here to be quite correct Recause it is known that a couple of months ago overtures were made to Mr.Whitney which he rejected.First, Dr.Montague proposed that he should take charge of the Ontario campaign, but his offer was declined.Then Mr.Clarke Wallace made the same proposition to Mr.Whitney, but with his otvn name substituted for that of Dr.Montague.This offer was also declined and Mr.Whitney and his colleagues in the Legislature determined that, hit or miss, they would fight Mr.Hardy without committing the campaign to the guidance of either Dr.Montague or Mr.Wallace.Hence his declaration that his campaign was being run \u2018on distinctly Ontario lines.\u2019 prunes À LONG-LIVED FAMILY.Standish, Mich., Aug.31.\u2014Mrs.Sarah Russell, who resides near Stirling, will be a hundred and three years old on March

YESTERDAY.HOPEFUL WORDS FOR THE FARMERS BY THE PREMIER AT THE RIRECTORS\u2019 LUNCHEON.Toronto, Sept.1.\u2014Canada\u2019s great Industrial Fair this year, called the Victorian Era Exposition, was formally opened yesterday afternoon by Lady Kirkpatrick, wife of the Lieut.-Governor, in the absence of Lord Lister, who had been expected to perform the ceremony but was unable to be present.About one o'clock Mayor Shaw and the aldermen came in a string of barouches through the eastern gate.They were all spick and span in glossy silk hats and frock coats, and after a short lpok around the grounds they repaired to the directors\u2019 luncheon, where they collated with tle Hon.Mr.Hardy, the members of the Ontario Cabinet, the local members of the Dominion House and other distinguished guests.At two o\u2019clock the party noved to the grand stand where Lady Kirkpatrick was ready to press the button and set the big fair at work.After the usual greetings, the president, Mr.Withrow, read a long address from the directors, to which Lady Kirkpatrick responded in suitable terms, and having touched the electric button which started the machinery humming throughout the vast grounds, declared the Victorian Era Exposition open for business.There was the usual opening day attendance on the grounds.The opening was followed by a military display by the Royal Canadian Dragoons, a portion of the great jubilee procession tableaux, bicycle polo match and nearly all the features provided for the full term of the exhibition.: At the luncheon the chief speaker was the Premier, the Hon.A.S.Hardy, who prophesied from the shortage in the wheat crop of the world and the abundance of the Canadian crop this year, that great prosperity was upon us.Ho did not think wheat would remain as low as a dollar per bushel.He thought England could supply her markets with many products from Canada, India and Australia, which are now imported from fcreign countries.He believed that a cew imperial era had begun.Mr.Casey, M.P.for West Elgin, promised to support in the House of Commons, a proposal to make the industrial exhibition a Dominion affair.He also made a strongly imperial speech.Mayor Shaw and several members of the British Association also spoke.To-day is school children\u2019s day.All departments will remain open until ten o'clock to-night.It is a holiday in the public schools, and some fifty thousand children with their parents and friends were present.The towns and villages for miles about Toronto observed to-day as school children\u2019s day.The railways made special low rates for children from points within forty miles of Toronto.All the special features took place before the grand stand in the afternoon, among them the musical ride by the Royal Dra- gocns, the jubilee procession, boys\u2019 bicycle races, two-year-old colt trot, and two-year-old colt pace, mile heats.Illuminations will follow this evening.Word has been received here expressing the regrets of Sir Wilfrid Laurier at his inability to come to Toronto next week to accept the banquet and reception which it was proposed to teuder to him.He will also te unable to accept the invitation to visit the Industrial Exhibition on Sept.8 He says he has no date free until Sept.24.ADVERTISEMENTS.Substitution Ram pant.SEE THAT YOU GET THE GENUINE FOOT ELnM.It has come to our

Aug.31.\u2014President Faure arrived at the Northern railway station from Dunkirk at six o\u2019clock this evening.He was received there by the president of the Chamber of Deputies, M.Brisson ; the president of the Senate, M.Loubet ; the general in command of the Paris garrison and his staff, and the municipal councillors.After listening to short speeches of welcome the President entered a landeau and proceeded to the Flysee Palace by way of the Rue La Fayette, the Opera,the Madeleine and the Place de la Concorde.Enormous crowds lined the route, and the l\u2019resident was warmly acclaim:d.All the balconies were filled with spectators, and the waving of handkerchiefs and fags was to be seen on all sides.Ten minutes after the President had pasesd the Madeleine a bomb was exploded i \u2018side the railings around that church.Two arrests followed immodtately.and the rai'ei enclosure was closed by the police, who began an active investigation into the outrage.Nobody was injured by the explosion, but the affair caused the greatest excitement.All the persons inside the railiugs of the Madeleine were minutely examined by the police before they were allowed to leave, The fragments of the bomb found by the police resembled those found in the Bois de Boulogne on June 13 last, and on the Place de la Concorde on June 16 last.It consisted of an iron tube filled with an explosive and loaded with nails.The Place de 'Opera, which was richly decorated, was especially thronged with people.On it a large platform was erected, and upon this platform were as- gembled the members of the committee of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Paris, which had arranged the decora- ticns, and which had been commissioned to welcome the President back from Russia.The President, who was accompanied by the premier, M.Meline.and Generals Hagron and Fredericks, left his earriage on reaching this platforin and ascended the steps leading tc it.There the chairman of the committee of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry reid the following address to the President : \u2018All Frenchmen feel the same patriotic joy at the homage rendered you in Russia and at the solemn consecration of the alliance wade for the maintenance of peace.The Chamber of Commerce and Industry is deeply grateful for this, and we rejoice especially because all our fel- low-citizens will partake in the prosperity which we are entitled to anticipate from it.Peace is our dearest wish, and in accomplishing this beneficent work you will receive your reward.\u2019 The President then re-enter-d his carriage and drove toward the Elysce Palace.The route was lined with soldiers, and the President was escorted by detachments of cuirassiers and mounted Republican Guards.The shouts chiefly heard as the President was driven to the Elysee were \u2018Vive l\u2019Allance, \u2018Vive la France\u2019 and \u2018Vive la Russe.\u2019 | The .grand stand in the Place de l\u2019Opera was surrounded by a ring of triumphal orches raisedf over the entrances of all the streets converging there, thus reproducing the effective decoration of the boulevards during the visit of the Czar to Paris.The effect was that of a grcat ballroom surrounded by lofty walls.On either side of the stand were two illumined devices inscribed to \u2018Felix Faure\u2019 and \u2018Trade and Industry.\u201d The erowds in attendance appeared to be of the middle rather than of the working classes, the large factories being open as usual.Straw hats predominated all along the line of the railway and on the boulevards.Three performances were given during the afternoon at the Theatre Francais, and in the evening at the opera.The people waited the wholè day ta obtain admissinn.at Dunkirk, M, Faure, replying to a toast, said : \u2018By loyalty, wisdom and political instinct our democracy has re: stored France to her rightful place among nations, has reaped the affections of another people, and has founded, on the, \"mutual aim of peace, the intimate union | of the two great nations, which constitutes one of the greatest events of the end of the present century.\u2018T drink to the prosperity of Dunkirk and to the greatness of the fatherland.\u2019 The President\u2019s remarks were gre:ted with frantic applause, and the bands in attendance played the \u2018Marseillaise\u2019 and the Russian hymn.ANTI-GERMAN DEMONSTRATION.Paris, Aug.31.\u2014At eleven o'clock tonight a band of a hundred and fifty persons, with flags flving, left the opera and proceeded in the direction of the Elysee, shouting : \u2018Down with the Emperor William.\u201d The police stopped the procession on Rue Agueeseau.The band dis- Lÿorsed after a scuffle.Twe of the leaders were placed under arrest.\u2019 \u2014\u2014.FRUIT SHIPMENTS.IMPROVED FACILITIES BY RAILWAY COMPANIES PLEASE TIE GROWERS.Ifamilton, Oat., Sept.1.\u2014The fruit creps between Hamilton and Grimsby are greater this season than for many a vear, and the fruit growers are greatly The streets to-night were brilliantly illuminated, dense masses of peopls thronging the principal bouleva-ds.Numerous bands\u201d continued playing for hours in -front of the cafés.Dancing was next to impossible, owing to the large crowds.M.Faure gave a banquet to all the ministers at the Flysee.Telegrams were received from the principal towns announcing that fetes were in full swing in various portions of the republic.Cries of \u2018Vive la France,\u201d \u2018Vive la Russe\u2019 and \u2018Vive l'Alliance\u2019 were heard everywhere.Such a spectacle of popular enthusiasm as has taken place to-day has rarely been witnessed.The people seemed entirely to lose self-control.Many accidents occurred during the crush.The ambulance corps.was kept fully occupies.The shrieks of the women in the crowd were sometimes painful to hear.The President must have heen extremely touched and gratified by the demonstration, and the fairylike change which has come over the city during the past few davs, the scenes reminding one of th visit of the Russian officers to France not long ago.notably at the Army and Navy Club, where they were lodged, the same magnificent decorations being used.The President has evidently been wel.cemed back to France not as a potentate but as the faithful representative of the people, and his reception 1s regarded as the triumph not of a person, but of a principle, and the date of Aug.31 will undoubtedly be known henceforth as \u2018Al- tous contrivance, which will pleased with the improved facilities for shipping.Since the switch was put ing to conmect the H.G.& B.Electric Rail way with the C.P.R.at the easterly city limits, considerable fruit from the Niagara.peninsula has been transferred from the electric cars to the big C.P.R.fruit cars, and Monday night\u2019s shipment amcunted to ten tons of fruit.Yesterday the first C.P.R.refrigerator car was taken on the H.G.& B.track, right into the fruit country and was loaded with fruit at Helderleigh, close to Mr.E.D.Smith's fruit farm.A few days ago the H.G.& B.track was altered slightly, so as to accommodate the big C.P.R.express cars, and yesterday's, experiment\u2018 of taking the cars to the fruit centres and there loading them, instead of continuing the transhipping business at the switch, was highly sue- cessful.This C.P.R.car was loaded with fruit for Winnipeg, and the shin- ment was by cold storage.A CANADIAN INVENTION.Toronto, Sept.1.-Word comes from Brooklyn that a former Canadian, Mr.W.H.Haworth,

OCCASION OF THE CONFERENCE OF LABOR LEADERS WHICH CLOSED LAST EVENING.St.Louis, Mo., Aug.21.\u2014The conference of the labor leaders of the country, 1 which has been in session here for two days, finished its work this evening.The meeting was productive of several sensational speeches and many resolutions, yet no decisive action was taken in the -prin- cipal matter for which the gathering was

the International Typographical Union, to request President McKinley, in the name of the convention, to call a special session\u2019 of Congress for the purpose of defining the authority of judges in the matter of injunctions.Eugene V.Debs and Social Democracy dominated the convention, and the famous labor leader carried the gathering off its feet this afternoon in one of his ehar- acteristic speeches.A resolution calling upon all miners now at work to desert their posts, and terming them enemies of human liberty so long as they remained on duty, was adopted.In the course of his speech

the delegates to this convention are cognizant of the fact that civil liberty is dead in America.I have said, and say it again, that for the last time I have appealed to the courts of justice and shall appeal to them no more.\u2018The time has not quite come to incite the populace,\u2019 said Mr.Debs, shaking his fist vehemently.\u2018I serve notice on the plutocratic element of this.country that we are on the eve of another meeting in Chicago which will be attended by all branches of labor.That convention will take up these same questions, and will institute agitation and keep it going until the public conscience and public heart are aroused.Then will come such an uprising as the world has never seen.\u2018Never in my life,\u201d continued Mr.Debs, \u2018have I been more hopeful
