The Czarina wore a robe of shot blue silk, a diadem upon her head and a diamond necklace about her throat.Mme, Faure wus also atfired in a blue robe.To-day all of the papers express satisfaction with the speeches made by the Czar at Cherbourg and also at the Elysee Palace banquet., PRESIDENT AND CZAR'S GREETINGS.President Faure in proposing a toast in honor of the Czar, said: * Your Ma- Jesty's presence has, amid the acclamations of our whole people, sealed the ties uniting our two countries in bar- monous activity and mutual confidence in their destinies.The union of your powerful Empire and our Republic has already exercised a beneficial effect upon the peace of the world.Fortified by tried fidelity, it will continue to spread its fortunate influence everywhere.\" The remainder of the President's remarks consisted of compliments and good wishes.The Czar, in replying to the toast, said: \u201c1 am deeply touched by the welcome extended to the Empress and myself in great Paris, the centre of so much genius, taste and light.I have come to Franco to greet in yon, Monsieur President, the chief of the nation to which we are united by such precious ties.As you have said the union cannot but produce by its constancy a most for- \u201cIt tunute influence.I beg you to inter- ret these sentiments to the whole of \u201crance.\u201d\u2019 After the banquet the Imperial party watched from the toggia.of the Tro- cadero the illumination of the Eiffel tower, which pointed skyward like a gigantic finger of fire, and then turned into a cascade of tumbling flame.The sight was exquisite.ben the party, proceeded to the dp- era all the main grteries df Paris were crammed \u201cwith the\" populace, rei by strangers.io a number estimated as high as a million to witness the illuminations of the city.Vehicular traffic was entirely suspended.The guests of the state performance at the Opera an to arrive at nine o'clock.At 10.30 o'clock renewed and vociferous cheering heralded\u2014 the ap- roach of the Czar and Czarina, the zarina leaning upon President Faure\u2019s left arm and the Czar at his right.The Republican-Guard-lined-the grand staircase in the theatre.Two attendants bearing flambeaux headed the procession, the directors of the Theatre Fran- cais proceeding the Imperial guests.Then followed President Faure's wife and daughter, the suites of the sovereigns and others, and naval officers of distinec- tion.The members of the Cabinet who received the guests waited at the top of the staircase.The arrival of the Imperial party was signalled by pre- longed vivas and the playing of the Russian anthem, the troops presenting arms.e whole audience in the theatre arose and turned toward the Imperial loge as the party entered, and the orchestra played the Russian hymn.This\u2019'was listened to In profound silence.Then thunders of applause reverberated throughout the theatre.\"A SPLENDID SCENE.The .Czar acknowledged the salutation, bowing two or three times, as did the.Czarina, who was escorted by President Faure.The scene was one of general splendor.The handsome toilettes v of the ladies and their sparkling jewels were almost rivalled by the d-laden uniforms of the civil, naval and military officials, on whose breasts glistened the stars.of many orders.During the entracte the Imperial visitors and President Faure appeared on a halcony, where the throng assembled in the Place de I'Opera had a good view of them.They were greeted with loud cheers, which wera taken up and repeated again and again by the crowds in the streets gonverging upon the Place de 1'Opera.It was after midnight when the Czar and Czarina returned to the Embassy.All the artists of the Academy of Music were grouped upon the stage and sang the Russian hymn before the, performance of the third act of Sigurd, tn which Mme., in the role of Brunehilde, and Alvarez surpassed themselves.The Imperial auditors alstain- ing from applause, the audience were also silent.It is the confensus of opinion among everybody that Paris and the visitors within her gates have fairly outdone themselves in showing honor to the great ally of France.The Place De T1.'Opera was guarded by a triple cordon of the Republican yuard, not uselessiy, for as far as the eye \u2018could reach there was an ocean of human heads, the owners of which were shouting themselves hoarse.with incessant acclamations.Women were constantly fainting, and many persons were slicbtly injured.The Figaro says: \"The Czar\u2019s spontaneous visits to the Presidents of the Senate and the Chamber of Deputies indicate His Majesty's formal acceptance of the forms and\u2019 consequences of the Republican regime.\u201d \"The per adds: \u201cConclusive words and definite acts have already been exchanged, and probably they will be completed at Chalons, but they are already enough to convince Europe of our union.\u201d Yesterday there were also many cries of \u201cVive l'A

instrument in any of its stations or offices, not even the most unimportant, is an uncommon sight in this country, so much so that most railroad men would call it a curiosity, says the Railroad Gazette, but such, it appears, is to be the character of the new Queen Anne's Railroad, extending southeastward from Baltimore across Maryland and Delaware, east of Chesapeake Bay.This road is about fifty miles long, and it is \u2018intended to use the telephone for'all communications for which a letter by train would be too slow.The use of the telephone for all necessary instantaneous communications is not entirely unknown in this country, however, for it has been in practice some time on the short Boston, Revere Beach & Lynn road, where train orders were sent by telephone, and perfectl satisfactory written records and copies were made.The Suffolk & Carolina road, extending forty miles southward from Suffolk, Va., has depended on the tele- hone for ten years.It is fair to say, owever, that the number of train or- flers issued gr that road is not very a .eo foregoing suggests the pe- cular value which the telephone will have for the Chinese, who are likely to build more or less railroad during the next few years.For the last half century the telegraph has been universally looked upon as an indispensale ad- Junct, if not an integral.part.of the railroad, and it is conceivable that this fact might be one of the influences retarding tbe establishment of railroads in China, for the great number of characters in the Chinese alphabet makes it impossible to send messages by telegraph except by what is practically a cipher.That is, the Chinese characters are numbered and the numbers tele- graphed\u2014obviously a most clumsy practice and very slow.When the question jof employing natives in responsible positions comes to be considered there is still a greater difficulty, in the fact that men of ordinary education are not sufficiently acquainted with the written, language to business by means of written me s.This) of course, is a great obstacle In operating trams by - said, will not telegra ic orders, for educa in- ese, it road in the train service.- brigands onl work for a rail- third lady, being too ill to ride, was released, and after much trouble a rude country waggon was ured and abe was told to return to Koori.Before allowing her to depart the conditions up on which her twg companions would released were told to her and she set out to find their ransom.These stipulations demanded a ransom of £25,000, and a certain time was set as the limit within which it could be paid.The consternation caused by the arrival of this lady alone and the sto.she had to tell was great.The Frenc residents of Koori and Constantinople were wildly excited, and the French Consul was d to act at once.Of course, the uncertainty as to the treatment the captives would receive at the hands of the added fuel to the fire.The time given for the payment of the ransom was short and the sum demanded exorbitant.Every one felt certain that until that time expired the ladies were safe, but the future was something which no one dared to contemplate.Troops were at once hurried to the scene of the abduction from Ismidt, Pan- derma, Karra-Musal and other districts, and the authorities armed peasants and sent them in pursuit of the brigands, Judging that, not being in uniform and with their knowledge of the country, they would attract less attention than the i ndarmes and more easily ands.The Intter seemed perfectly cogn t of the movements of the rescuing parties, and, upon the s- ants approaching, greeted them with a volley.Finally a meeting was arranged by members of the Embassy and delegates sent by the brigands to wind up the ne- otiattong.r.Rouet, of Em- hasay succeeded in having the ransom reduced from twenty-five thousand po \u2018to ten thousand pounds.Of course it was necessary to exercise the greatest caution and diplomacy, as the lives and te of thes» defrnceless women were at stake.The brigands were very bold and aggressive, and would not yield one inch from the stand they take though it eventually turned out tha abduction was a mistake, and the ladies seized were not tbe ones originally expected.This made little difference to them.however, they had their captives and held all the winning cards.It appeared later that the band had been lying in walt for a party of rich Armenians and the wife of a Greek banker, who wers reported to carry a large amount of money and jewels.This par- 1y were to have gone to Koori from Constantinople the day the French women left it.but for some reason or other their departure was delayed at the last moment.The knowledge possess:d by the brigands proved that some confederate in Constantinople kept them informed as to the movements of important per- SALT RHEUM CURED, Another Triumph for Manley's Uslery- Nerve Compound.Mra, M.Wallace, of 112 Berkeley

was captured a few days after their releuse in a shepherd's hut, where he bad fallen asleep after u carouse, He surrendered without a struggle.Seven hundred and eighty pounds were found upon him, evidently what remained of bis share of the spoils.The rest of the band are being actively pursued, but owing to the difficult nature of the country it is doubtful whether they will ever be captured.\u2019 The story of their capture and treatment by the bund is very graphically \u2018told by one of the ladies, the other he- ing in Bo nervous a condition us to still need the doctor's care.\u2018 \u201cAfter our friend left us,\u201d she relates, \u201cwe were harried further inland, into what I sbould sty was the heart of the mountains.So far we bud had little time to realize our position, or else the horror of it was su great that we were numbed by it, incapable of any feeling whatsoever.We finally encamped in a clearing which had evidently been used by the captors before, and there, s8 I found afterward, awaited ths result of tlw regotiations and the arrival of the money.Of courss we knew upon what terms we were being held, and we felt certain, so fur as our friends were concerned, that we would speedily be released.\u201cThe band numbered about fifteen men, all well armed, some with Martini rifles, and others carrying repeating rifles, and all having knives and yatag- bans.They were au formidable logking lot, and after we had settled down to the awful moro ony ant dreaded uncertainty of that wait, cur hearts were very rick and cur courage very low, as we contemplated our captors and imagined what our lol might be did the negutiu- tions fall through.\u201cOn cur way up the moutaing the brigands treated wy very roughly, but once in safety their attitude changed to one of gnttemitly :n1-ven g llzn' conduct.A small hut was erected for us from | branches of trees and ferns, und leaves were collected for our bed.At night thick coats as coverings against the heavy dews and cold night air.Rain fell during several nights in perfect torrents, and, no!withstanding all their efforts to protect us, the But which rheltered us was so inadequate that we were drenched and utterly miserable, \u201cTwo of the oldest brigands were stationed outside our hut to mount guard and wait upon us, while the rest of the band withdrew to a respectful distance.For the first three days we had nothing to eat but the dry biscuits provided by our captors, but as soon as our i could be communicated with and had learned our whereabouts they sent us every necessity, rot only of fcod, but al- 80 of clothing, which we needed.\u201cThe Jeading men of the hand were Greeks from Yaninih, in-luding the chief, who wrote and spoke Greek fluently and appeared to be very well educated.The men were all well and uniformly dressed, the chief possess-d among other things an excellent field glass, which enabled him to watch the movements of his intended prey as well as the troops and gendarmerie.He would often turn to us and say: ** \u2018Madam, these busybodies of friends of jours will do you harm some time.\u2019 \u201cl was often seriously worried.Our in once friends

believe that such things can take place in this nineteenth century.A band of men seize and hold two helpless, refined women, may subject them to untold indignities, if they so will, And the law cannot touch them, for they hold up as a shield the frail lives of their victims.The agony these women the men took\u201dturns'in lending us their- friends | onl the true friends who came forward to help

Struggle Between Different Parties at Washington.\u2014\u2014 New York, October 7.-The Mall and Express\u2019s Washington special says: The practical removal of Bishop Keane from \u201cthe rectorship of the Washington University here has for the moment displaced all political gossip.In spite of the amicable correspondence between the rector of the Catholic College and the Pore, it is very evidentl\u201dthat Isishop Keane has been removed ugainst his will, and his refusal to accept the honors which are offered him by the Pope indicates that he will not entirely surrender.The statement of Archbishop Ireland, of St Paul, that the Board of Directors at the university at their forthcoming meeting may promptly re-elect Bishop Keane to the rectorship has created alinest a sensation, because it would indicate an unwillingness un the part of the American clergy tol acquiesce in the direet order of the papal authority.; Bishop Keane's removal ends the fight that has been waged in America for some years, between the liberals and the clerichl, or Jesuit, element of the Church.Of the liberals, Archbishop Ireland, of St.Paul is the foremost representative, and Bishop Keane has always been his ardent supporter.Archbishop Ireland\u2019s stand on the matter of the State school funds and the parish schools in the West is well known, und is heartily supported by the vast body of Americans.At the head of the clericals stands Mgr.Schroeder, one of the foremost professors of Che university.He is the ideal ecclesiastical diplomat, a man of magnificent presence, polished, of attractive manners, speaking the various modern languages with equal ease.From the day that he nrrived in this country he has been gradually extending bis influ- \u201cone and power until the party which be represents has in Bishop Keane's removal achieved at least a temporary triumph.While there has never been open friction between the rector and Mer.Schroeder, there have lwen frequent occasions of differences of opimon so strong that it is marvelous that nothing ever became public of their opposing views.Bishop Keane some time ago carried the liberality of his views to the degree of inviting several Protestant professors to deliver lectures at the university.4 The doyen of Irish journalists, Mr.J.O'Shea, who was editor of the Nenagh Guardian sixty years ago, has just died aged

Or the three questions submitted tor enquiry we will only deal here now with thesecond, which read: 2.What, so far as can be ascertained, is the true proportion, under the principles and spe- ciflo standards so deternuned, between the taxable capacity ot Great Britain anid Ireland.The answer to this enquiry is contained in no less than seven reports, or draft reports, and two memoranda; but only one amongst these bears more than four names, while several of the papers express the views of individual Commissioners only; but the important fact remains that with only two dissentients, , Bié D Barbour and Sir T.Sutherland \u201cthe Commission reports \u201cThat whilst the actual tax revenue of Ireland is about one-eleventh of that of Great Britain the relative taxable capacity of Ireland .is very much smaller and is not estimated by any of us us exceeding one- twentieth.Upon the face of it the conclusion follows that Ireland for some years passed has been taxed £2,000,000 per annuin in excess of her proper pro- , portion \u2018according to her relative tax- &ble capacity.In many respects the reports vf the Commission afford food for thought by all political parties, for the question bas a wider application than even the Commissioners themselves seem to\" have apprehended.- Such à conclusion as the following : \u201cWhere there is comparatively but little wealth, as in Ireland, the main burden of taxation must of necessity: be borne by the consumers of dutiable commodities,\u201d opens a wider field than \u201cmerely tha condition of Ireland, for there are many counties in the United Kingdom whose sole support is agriculture, and Who bave suffered by the altered conditions which have prevailed\u2014with ~ ever increasing disastrous effects to those who live by the land since the change in the fiscal policy carried out by Sir Robert\u201d Peel, which by removing any import-duty upon foreign corn knocked \u201cthe first nail in the coffin of the Irish and English farmer.So far, the.English press of all party - sbmdes has beun very chary in discurs- ing these reports; the Unionist realizes that they form a stronger argument for \u2018some kind of Home Rule than any In- therto advanced, and the Radicals realize that if legislation has to be carried out upon the lines suggested hy the eminent financial authorities, who were the backbone of the Commission, .much will have to be done in England and Scotland as well to transfer to other «+ shouldérs many of the burdens now borne by the landed interests, 2 LIRUT.-GOV.MACKINTOSH vo ON THE NORTH-WEST.Lieutenant-Goveroor Mackintosh, who .opens his Legislature with a speech * as \"\" 1a a speech \"\u2014no meagre bundle of cold official paragraphs, but columns of pat- - \u2018Motie talk\u2014reviews in his address to the present session of the Legisiature the agricultural vondition of the Territories.It is on the whole a very favorable report.District by district, he goes over the Empire \u201cin posse that is his charge, and tells tersely how things fare with each.For instance, he says that \u201cthe wheat orop in the Calgary district is above the average, but owing to failure of crops in past years the wheat acreage is from 40 to 5) per cent.less thun usual.The root crop is reported notices\u2019 ably fine, with a large surplus for shipment, and the cattle and dairying industries very favorable.\u201d Lethbridge has suffered from a snow-storm.although the cattle trade remains good.Grain in the Alameda district is reported \u201cvery satisfactory,\u201d while the root crop is the best for many Years, and is considered the best paying the district has ever bad.\u201d From the Duck Lake district, grain, root crops and cattle are all reported excellent.\"The Moosomin district will yield from 750,000 to ¥00,000 bushels of wheat averaging about 18 bushels to the acre,\u201d says the address.\u201clt is anticipated that $36,000 worth of cattle will he shipped from Mousomin \u2018station this year, and farmers are generally satisfied with the season's operations.The Whitewood district will \u2018yield about 20 bushels of wheat to the acre, a portion of the crop be'ag slightly frosted.The value of the cattle to be shipped is estimated at from: $30,- 000 to $40,000.\u201d The districts at Prince Albert and Innisfail are also stated to be in capital condition.This is all very encouraging.and comes in \u201cput\u201d with the expectation that the present is the time in which the Territories cought to begin to draw settlers by the train-load.The good crops that His Honor is able to report from all sides, proves once again the oft proven agricultural possibilities of the Territories; and meets the man whose eyes search the horizon for a home-site with the i.promise of abundant return for toil in the North-West.The climate and the suil are in the settlers\u2019 favor; and if he is not over-taxed.he ought to succeed, Once this opportunity is fully realized by the surplus population of other lauds, it is hard to see how the North-West can avoid becoming the objective point of the universal emigrant\u2019s caravan; for there is no El Dorado like the temperate belt of the North American continent, and there is little of it open to settlement except what we Canadians have to ofter.Hence the value of a speech like that of the Lieutenant-Governor, which affixes to the preded information the official stamp.THE ROSSLAND MINE BOOM.Deals with English Syndicates Completed \u2014Latest Quotations, (Special to the Star.)

The president referred to the business done since last meeting.The by-law governing annual elections adopted at the April meeting contained 8% clause voiding any ballot on which were marked fewer votes than the number of persons to be elected to office.The by-law now stood without the clause as it had been declared illegal.He recalled the instruo- tions given to the delegates to the conference of the Board of Trades of the Empire and said that Mr.Beaugrand had been unable tp attend through illness, but Sir Donald Smith had.He reviewed what had been done and said he had communicated the resolution regardin intercolonial trade to the Minister o Trade and Commerce, The Minister had bad the following letter sent to the Speaker : .\u201c1 am directed by the Minister of Trade and Commerce to uest you to call the attention of your d to the sub- Ject of the possible extension of the trade ot the Dominion in various directions, The Minister will be pleased to receive and consider any suggestions you or your colleagues may chink fit to offer as to the methods whereby cxisting trade can be increased or new traffic developed in any direction.In particular, he will be glad to be advised whetHer you have to report any material alterations in the past year in quantities and values of principal articlés exported from your section of the Dominion to other countries, and whether the traffic.inany-of these articles can be readily increased, and, if so, in which class and to what countries.other articles which you consider might expo to advantage, and, if so, which and to what markets.\u201d ; The president added that a committee bad been appointed to collect.the information and he would be glad to have any members communicate with the Minister on the matter.Mr.J.A, Centlie enquired about the Insolvency Law.\u2019 The President replied that there had been no \\ bringing the matter before Parliament owing to the shortness of the session.Mr.Cantlie thought that the Council had been remiss in its duties in not bringing the matter forward.The President, after some discussion, sid that a committee had been appointed, but it had nat acted.The Council would enquire of the Committee why it had not acted.Mr.James Alexander enquired if any communication had paiged retween the Council and the CP.R.regarding the telegraphers strike.; The President replied in the negative though some people had suggeste chat the difficulties ould Le submitted to arbitration.Mr.James Alexander thought it was the duty of the Board to take some action when the business of the country was jeopardized.He could not say whether the strike was justified or not.Matters were not so good on the C.R.as were claimed.He had been unable to send a message to a certain place because the Tator there was on strike.Merchandise was delayed in the east and this was a serious matter as contracts had to be carried out before the close of navigation.The President wanted to know if the Board was to be called upon to arbitrate or to give merely an expression of opinion -in regard to arbitration.Mr.Alexander did not want the Board to arbitrate but to' protest against the delay of business at this season of the year.The be ma Mr.D.L.Lockerby enquired if it was true that the city police had been sent to Ontario.This was work for the mili- president suggested that a thotion a.tary.He wanted to know who gave the.permission and who was paying the cost.Thirdly, whether there are \u2018any\u2019 | The president thought the Mayor mighi answer.the question.! he Mayur tnought that question had been answered by Mr.Alexander wben he bad said that the interests the city suffered by the strike.Mr.Alexander had maid that goods were being deluyed and telegrams could not be sent.ete.\u201c1 think,\u2019 said the Mayor, \u201cthat under the circumstances it would be very proper for the citizens of Montreal if requested by a large corporation, to send a few men up the line for any purpose in the way ol preventing any trou- le or looking alter the interests of the citizens of Montreal, us naturally they would, being more largely interested than any other city or town in the Dominion.It hes always been custo- mery Lo send men un occasions of this kind, when requested.The city is under no expense whatever, and I have not learned that any damage has been done by these few mensbeing sent.Permission was given the Chief of Police to send a few men, 17 be could spare them, and he did so, 1n view of the fact that he could, at almost a moment's notice, call in a reserve 10 take their places if necessary.No expense is incurred to the city in regard to this.\u201d The president thought the explanation was satislactory, and he also thanked the police for-the service they had rendered the bowrd the other night, when there had been a fire near the building.The subject then dropped.Mr.J.A.Cantlie enquired what had been done regarding freeing canals trom tolls, the reduction ot pilotage dues and the establishment ot a Board of Customs, | The president thought the Government should be given a little time to consider these matters, Mr.Cantlie had been working on them for eighteen years.Mr.C.F, Smith stated that there had been no intention of harassing the new Government.As there wus to be another session shortly, it be well that the Government aware of all that was required of Mr.D.A, Watt then moved: the Montreal Board ot Trade greatly desires that the postal rate on inland Jet- ters in this country shall the same them.\u2018That as in the Mother.Country and the United States, viz., two cents er one ounce; that the adoption of t two- cent rate would be a great boon to the business communities ot the Dominion, and bu welcomed hy the general put- lic, and it would, moreover, give a great impetus to the movement for nny- postage throughout the British Empire, a consummation which would, it is lieved, do much to promote commercial intercourse between the widely separated communities; that the Montreal Board of Trade therefore respectfully urges upon the Dominion Government the favorable consideration of the question and the reduction of the postal rate on letters to places in Canada and the United States from three cents to two cents per ounce, and hopes that in the near future the Government will promote a two-cent rate throughout the empire,\u201d This motion was seconded hy Mr.John Crawford and unanimously adopted.In reply to Mr.McFee, the president said that the Board's representative on the Harbor Commission reported at the annual meeting.Mr.MeFee thought that reports should be made quarierly, and that the Commissioner should appointed for two years instead of one.Mr.White thought that the Board had been fortunate in the gentleman who represented it on the Commission.If the election took place every two years, instead of one, the same representative would undoubtedly be returned.Kennedy wanted to know was going to follow the Mr.Murra if the Boar -close-the bar-in\u2014the- building:\u2014\u2014 - - Mr.C.F.Smith replied that the lease of the bar expired on April 30, and he understood that the Council did not intend renewing it.\u2018 IVORY EXPLAINS MATTERS.New York, October 7.~Edward J.Iv- ny recently arrested in England on suspicion of having been connected with a dynamite plot against the lives of the Czar and Queen Victoria, in a letter dated Holloway Prison, September 19, addressed to the manager his saloon in this city, explains how he sailed for England under the name of E.Bell, by saying he purchased the ticket, on which he sailed, from Bell, its original holder, for half price, the latter being unable to sail because of the deat mother.He further says there is nothing but suspicion against him, and considers (his arrest a good joke.TOOK TOO MUCH STRYCHNINE.(Special to the Star.)

1896 THE BOARD OF CIVIC CHAIRMEN.eee PROPOSED CHARTER AMENDMENTS DISCUSSED.The Taxing of Property at Present Exempt Suggested\u2014What the City Pays for the Insane and for Prisoners at the Gaol,\u201d The Board of Chairmen met yesterday afternoon to decide on the amendments project to the city charter.Rainville presided, and Ald.Stevenson, Costigan, Marsolais, Penny, Jacques, Ouimet, Prevost, Lefebvre, Prenoveau were also present.The chairman explained that the Legislature would probably meel in a month or su, and as they were required to give a month\u2019s notice for any bill introduced he had called them to prepare a state- mient of the amendments which might be asked for.He did not require them to discuss all the amendments now, but merely to prepare a list.The aklermen seemed puzzled at what end to begin at, but all seemed anxious to have some amendment introduced.Ald.Yæfebvre thought that in tbe financial amendment some provision rust be made for the drains and other works which were badly needed in St.Denis ar Ald.Marsolais wants an amendment to autharize the city to take over the public scales at the various markets.\u2018hey are a source of revenue W hich the tity should passess.Id.Lefebvre \u201cAre you going to ask ler power to bürrow ?\u201d The chairman replied in the affirma- dive.There was at present a floating lebt: of $1,000,600, and another $1,000,- would be needed.The borrowing sould only be made un the basis of the revenue of 1895.The Legislature miglit impose the restriction that the 81.000.000 would have to be expended over three years in equal parts.The appropriations would have to be made out before mber 31.lt was very clear that the revenue was insufficient.The interest and the school tax now wiped out half of the whole reveuue of \u2018the city.The streets and sidewalks were sadly in need of repairn Ald.Jacques protested against the Injustice of requiring proprietors to make deposits to secure water service.Tu Ald.Penny the chairman said that pearly $300,000 fad been saved this year by the: Corporation.Ald Stevenson reminded the meeting that even if they did get power to borrow $2,000,000, they would have to find some $30,000 to pay the interest, and this would have to be taken from the ordinary revenus, which wis now altogether insufficient.The chairman thought that in the notice to }x given they should include the financial question and the power to amend the law relating to the revision of municipal and parliamentary lists.Ald.Stevenson was not in favor of borrowing, ehut thought it would be better to increase the revenus, The city should surely be given the right of taxing some of the exempted property, which now amounted to £92.000,000, of which.§20,- C00,0t0 was land alone.Ald.Jacques thought it was useless oing to Quebec to ask for power to fr this property unless they secured the acquiescence of the religious authorities.The members of the gisla- + ture from the country districts would not vote themselves out of their seats to tax religious and other exempted property in Montreal.Ald.Prevost complained of the lack of public spirit in the Legislature.The city generally had 5% members trom the country arrayed against it.Ald.Stevenson suggestad a small subcommittee to study the question.He instanced the splendid\u2019 condifion of Glas: gow, the revenue of which was now chiefly derived from public privileges which Montreal had practically thrown away.Ald.Prevost\u2014\"They have no Quebec Legislature in Glasgow.\" Ald.Stevenson\u2014\" No.nor.City Council for all that.\u201d Ald.Jacques contended that financial , propositions should be made by the Finance Committee.The chairman said that the Finance Committee intended making certain proposals.hey were now paying interest on the $1,000,000 of floating debt and with some $30,000 more they could face the second million which was needed.Ald.Costigan was not in favor of taxi \u2018citizens wno were already tou heavily taxed.They should tax outsiders and claimed that a revenue might raised on the cordwond and brick which was brought into the city.The ople of Notre Deme street west were Ri usted at the manner the city had treated them.though the money had been voted the street had never been paved since it had been widened.lt was now nothing better than a mud hole.Ald.Jacques had counted forty stores closed on Notre Dame street west.Ald.Penny was informed that the city practica 1r, paid for the maintenance: of Brisoners sent to gaol from Nort real ther they belonged to the city or not.The same was the case with insane people, who were sent into the city and picked up on the streets.Mr.Dufresne, the City Controller, said the city had never rece ved a cent from Jie 2 districts to which these people bg- on, Montreal \"ar Lefebv#e produced a statement showi ing that the city A from the 1st January to Ist her.\u201c1896, to the Montfort Institute,\u201d $7927.98; to the Provincial

ELECTION FIGHT.MAJOR M'KINLEY RECEIVES APPLAUSE OF WHEELMEN., Vice-President\u2019s View on the Money Question \u2014 How the Popular Vote is Likely to go in November.The New York World says the Re publicans are confident of all the New England and Middle Atlantic States, down to and including Delaware and Maryland.In their column are also included (by them) Ohio, Indiana, Ili- nois, Michigan, Wisconsin and lowa.The Democrats, who lead off their column with the solid South, dispute the ac quisition by the Republicans of Indiana, lllinois and Iowa.The silver states are placed in the Democratic column without much of a protest from the Republicans.Buth parties, ignoring the possibility of the \u2018gold bug\u201d crowd carrying a single state, ure able to present claims aggregating in electoral college votes more than 24, the number requisite to election.As both cannot have 224 it would seem their ligures are misleading.The battleground of the campaign is the miud- dle West, and from now on both parties will devote much of their time to that section.Speaking to & delegation of wheelmen at Canton, Major Mchinley said: \u201cPolitical clubs on wheels are novel in political contésts, and are truly American.\u2018Their presence marks a pew era in campaign work, and 1 congratulate you upon the inauguration ot this wighty force in American politics.Raid transit In this novel form depends argeiy upon a single condition, good rvads\u2014(great cheering and ringing of bicycle bolls)\u2014and 1 believe in them.(Great applause.) \u2018I'ho Americans are eminently a practical people, and were quick to see buth the convemience and utility of this beautiful machine.so simple and perfect in a part and so well designed as a whole that prejudice could not avail against its pride, nor prudishness, nur fear prevent its widest use by men, women and children everywhere.(Ap plause and ringing of bells.) \u201cSuch a scene as I witness Sefore me to-day would not be possible in any \u2019 other country of the world.It is a spectacle long to he remembered, and it is at once an inspiration and an education.Bicycle riding is useful not only for health and recreation, but in business and in almost every department of human exertion.\"To describe the modern bicycle, says a recent writer, is to try to follow a bullet in its flight.(Laughter and applause.) This nobody would undertake to do.The cyclist, I believe, has beaten the best time ever made by a horse, and bas almost surpassed in speed the fastest engines in the world.(Continued cheering and tinkling of bells.) \u201cThe speed _of the wheelmen would be extremely useful for a political party if distance were the test of its running qualities.(Great laughter and cheers.) The size of a political party, however, is in the strength of its cause.(Applause and cries of \u201cHear! Hear!) Its running qualities rest upon its principles, and how far those principles shall command the conscience, the confidence and the intelligence of the American people.may be wrong, but I do not recall that the wheelmen of this country, presenting as they do the homes, firesides and professions of the country, were ever interestel in a political campaign before.What but a mighty cause would bring five thousand wheelmen from different sections of the country to Can- fon to pay a visit to.a Presidential ca.didate of a political party?Your visit demonstrates the earnest feeling of the people, their deep solicitude in the outcome of the political contest.The wheel- men know as well as any part of our population what geod roads mean and how much easier it is to make progress and time over them than over pour roads.They know, too.that for three and a half years this country has been travelling over a \u2018rocky road\u2019 (tremendous cheering), full of ruts and covered with obstructions, and as a result the American people have had a very hard road to travel.(Great laughter and applause.) They want an improvement.They not only want better roads for their wheels, but they want every ohstruction removed from the great national highway, so that the whdels of industry will start in every factory and mill in the United States.\u201d (Great cheering.) Vice-President Stevenson has taken to the stump.Speaking in St.Louis he said: \u201cThe financial question overshadows all otbers in the present contest.Upon this question the difference is irreconcilable between the two great parties now contending for supremacy.Shall the single gold standard be maintained.or shall there be a return to bimetallism?The success of the Republican party means the one\u2014that of the Democratic party the other.\u201cBelieving as I do that gold and silver find e recognition in the constitution of the United States; that by their Joint use in effscting exchanges and performing the other functions of- money we have prospered in the past ; and that the evil days now befallen are in no small measure the result of the demonetization of silver.I have no hesitation in maintaining my party allegiance and casting my vote for Bryan and Sewall, the nominees of the mo- cratic Convention.déeply regret that many of those with her 1 have been associnted in former contests now op- the election of the candidates nominated in accordance with the time-hon- ored methods and usages of the Democratic party.\u201d The clerks of the peace of the three James: Stewart & Co.s Sales a RY GOODS STOCK TOR SALE BY PUBLIC AUCTION.e have received instructions to sell by Portic Auction, at our rooms, 178 St.James st\u2026 Mont » on THURSDAY, the 8th October, 1285, at 11 a.m.the stock In trade belonging to the late, C.M.BABCOCK, Breckville, Ont.\u2014consiaTiNe or t-cl uso es Dry Goods, A oun hn As per inv: Inventory to 328,000.Stock bete TE in fine can be with inventory on the Dremnises, and the business stand which is one of the best tn Brockville can be secured by the pur- eee \u2014JSU0 on adjudication, cash on delivery jot stock.and ance notes at two, four and six months, with tntorest at T per cent.and satisfactorily secur: , JAMES T.TENNANT, - For Executrir JAMES STEW ART & CO., one-fourth balan in Auctioneers.Often of Halos & Tennant, Accoun &e.Brockville, Ont, 30th Rept., #98.nu McGIBBON, HOGLE & MITCHELL, ADVOCATES, Canada Life Building, MONTREAL.RD.MOGIRBON, Q.0.ARTHUR F.HOGLB VIOTOR BR, MITOMELL Wa 9 under the name of the National Democratic party, for the reason that, in their opinion, the word National ap) lies to the original Democratic party, which isa national party.and to a ow the old men to use it would make the Bryan mocratic party \u201cppour- like a split from the ional party The New York Post's Washington correspondent says: Nothing sbows more distinctly the aew formation of party lines in this campaign than the clearly drawn conclusion that this\u2019 Democratic predominance in the popular vote will not descend to the Br ryan Democracy.This year, while some of the States of the extreme South may still give leads of 50,000 for Bryan, a Vick of Eastern seaboard States cannot fail to roll up majorities on the other side never before d of, A group of border States which in the past have given handsome Democratic rities, Hike Kentucky, 40000 in 1892\" > issouri 42,000 the same year, Maryland 20,000, will be lost now, upon whichever side of the balance they finally rest.Texas, which has broken ull records in Democratic majorities, giving Mr, Cleveland 140,000 more votes than his nearest competitor, will this year give .Mr.Bryan, if a majority at all, one very much reduced.Speaking to a New York reporter, ex- Gov.James E.Campbell, of Ohio, who at one time was a candidate for the Democratic nomination for President, said: \u2018\u2019l will vote for the regular candidates of the Democratic pariy, but 1 must \u2018confess that I' do not see how Bryan can carry any state vast of the Ohio River and north of the Potomac.How the West will go remains to be seen, but it is evident That the sentiment | against free silver in the east is simply overwhelming.\u201cl do not care to make any predictions.I will say, however, that McKinley's election could be predicted with more certainty but for some bad blunders which he and bis managers have made and are making.McKinley can be clected only by the nid of Democratic votes; yet and Mark Hanna are doing their best to repel Democrats by their everlasting talk about the tariff.\u201d Secretary Jahn Y.Foster, of the Republican State Committee of New Jersey ss his state will give McKinley and fubart 46,000 of a majority.Political circles in New York are excited over the announcement that Big Chief Richard Croker is on his way howe from England.'

in short, everything needed for a thorough, daring and successful burglary.this safe under ten hours we're lucky We must set to work with a will.\u201d Accordingly the sergeant\u201d speedily turned his attention to the back prem: ises with a view to n burried escape should they be disturbed, while the 1wo others directed theirs to the huge iron safe spoken of by the banker.Drills were quickly applied behind the hinges of the door, and boring began in real earnest, for these \u2018gentlemen\u2019 burg: lars knew pretty well everything wort knowing as to the.construction of most safes in use.Progress was slow at first, but the went to work almost in silenos.Now and then just a short spell for a \u201cbreather.\u201d Midnight arrived, and a lictle better progress, for they labored harder than ever.One, two, o'clock, and now the huge iron door began to yielil and crack a little, \u201cTough work, Jim.But it'll pay us in the end.old fellow.Keep it up.We must finish it by 6 o'clock, for perhaps some blessed office cleaner may be here, or people be moving outside.\u201d Four o'clock and a good aperture STEAMSHIPS- Allan Line RoyalMail Steamships Liverpool, quebec and Montreal Mail Servier.Monin.quem, - Fro Steamshipa.RATES OF PARSAGE CARIN.$32.58 and unwardssingle $100 turn;

Ottawa, October 7.\u2014In the Supreme Court this morning, on their lordships taking their seats, the Chief Jidstice of Canada, Sir Henry Strong.referred to the case of Turcot vs.Dansereau, in which a motion to quash the appeal was made yesterday.He regretted that it was not stated by either of the counsel yesterday that the debt of $1997 was incurred before the passing of the statute limiting the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court to cases of over $2000.Under these circumstances the court would not quash the appeal, but would allow the motion to stand over in case the counsel on either side wished to mention it again, or they could file a factum.He thought the parties were entitled to a hearing.The case of Murphy va.Labbe was then taken up.\u2018The appeal is from the decision of the Court of Queen's Bench at Montreal, which reversed the Superior Court judgment, Gill, J.The principal uestion involved is the application of the provisions of the civil code as to the legal presumption that the destruction by fire of leased premises is attributable to the negligence of the lessee.he Superior Court judgment cancelled the lease and reserved recourse for damages for loss of rent caused by the fire.The Appeal Court reversed this finding, and held that the respondent had re- i butted the legal presumptions against | im by evidence adduced.Appellant seeks to have the trial court judgment affirmed.: Trenholme, Q.C., and Burke, Q.C.for appellant ; Fortin & Lafleur for respondent.\u2018 _.In the Supreme Court, in addition to the list of appeals, there is a very interesting reference made by Order in Council of the bigamy question.The questions submitted by Order in Council dated April 25, 1896, are : 1.d the Parliament of Canada authority to enact sections 275 and 276 of' the criminal code, 1892?2.If the said sections or either of them are ultra vires in part only, then (a) what portions of the said sections are ultra vires?(b) To what extent are the sections.or either of them, ultra vires?Section 275 of the criminal code contains the definition of criminal bigamy.Subsection 4.which is the special object of this reference, reads: \"No person shall be liable tb be convicted of bigamy in respect of having gone through a form of marriage.in a place not in Canada, unless such a person, being a British subject, resident in Canada, leaves Canada with intent to go through such form of marriage.\u201d Section 276 provides a punishment of seven years' imprisonment on conviction for a first offence, and fourteen on a second conviction.These enactments were held ultra vires by the Chancery Division of the High Court of Justice of Ontario, in the case of Regina vs.Brierly, Chancellor Boyd.Ferguson and Robertson, J.J., constituting the court.In that case the bigamous marriage had been contracted out- Afterwarde, in case of Regina vs.Plowman, the facts being substantially the same as in the former case.Armaur, C.J., and Falconbridge, J., sitting on the Queen's Bench in Ontario, held the above sections ultra vires.In the face of this conflict of opinion, this reference is mad¥.Hon.Charles Fitz- atrick, Solicitor General, and Mr.E.ewcombe, Deputy Minister of Justice, will be the counsel for the Department of Justice.The reference will be argued at the close of the Ontario list.!

number of operations performed in the hospital, and remarked, that no less than 30,000 outdoor patients had been treated in the past year.The institution was second to none in the world, and if that proud position was to be kept up bey must support it, not only oF ir prayers, but by liberality, which, he must say, bad never failed in the 1 Co Mayor Wilson-Smith being e¢alled upon, He expressed his sympathy with the work of the Hospital, than which there was no better in the city.He referred to the many monuments of the generosity of the citizens of Montreal existing in this city, among which was the admirable institution in whose interest they were gathered together.He wished the Executive and the ladies all success in their undertaking.The proceedings concluded with the national anthem.PROTESTANT INSANE.The Quarterly Mesting of the Governors of the Verdun Hospital.The Governors of the Protestant Hospital for the Insane held their regular quarterly meeting in the office of the Hospital, in the Mechanics\u2019 Institute, yesterday afternoon.- Tho chair was taken by Hon.J.K.Ward.There were also present Messrs.Charles Alexander, F.Wolferstan Thomas, E.L.Bond, J.W.Sadler, D.Wilson, W.Rutherford, Wm.\u2018Kénnedy, Alfred Perry, James Wilson, James Mc- Bride, Dr.anless, and John Black, of St.Johns.;

tions Was Successful.The strike of the telegraph operators @ the Canadian Pacific Railway Company was called off at 4.30 this morning, when the following message was sent by Mr.Tait to General Superintendents Whyte at Winnipeg, Abbott at Vancouver, Spencer at North Bay, Leonard at Toronto, and Timmerman at St.Jobn : ; \u201cThe following proposition has been made to the company by emphoyes representing the operators and has been accepted by the company: All employes now engaged in a strike on the Canadian Pacific Railway may report at once to \u201ctheir respective superintendents, who will reinstate them, without prejudice, to the positions they occupied before the strike took place, except such as\u2019 have been guilty of such grave misconduct as to cause general superintendents to refuse to accept them.New men eu- ployed during the\u2019 past week will bo utilized as far as possible in filling extra positions created by the autumn business.All other employes who refused to take the place of strikers, but were guilty of no other offence, and were dismissed, will be reinstated without prejudice.\u201d , This message was despatched at the conclusion of an interview.which took place between Mr.T.G.Shaughnessy, the vice-president of the company.and the deputation from Winnipeg, repre senting the various other organizations of railroad employees which desired to see the matter sctiled.Having got it away.Mr.Tait went home to enjoy a well earned rest.This morning employees in other branches of the service are busy speculating as to what terms | were made between the company and the strikers before the assistant general manager notified tle superintendents that the men might resume work, and.:_grand organizer notified mewm- bers of the order that the strike had come to an end.Nor was the speculation confined to these other branches of the sérvice altoguther.Said one of those who bad been out, but who resumed work this morning: \u201cI know no thing beyond \"the fact that early this morning I received word that we had won, und was told that- I might go back to work this morning.\u201d Mr.Tait did not return to his office this morning, and Mr, Shaughnessy was.once more claseted with the members cf the deputation, tut Mr.Powell, the Grand Chief of the Order of Railway Telegraphers was disengaged, and not averse to saying a few words with re ard to the situation.\u201cThe strike has been called off,\u201d -be said, \u2018and we are- quite satisfied with the condition of affairs, which, roughly speaking, is as follows: The Caœupany agrees to take back every man who went out on strike, providing he has not committed any cri- winal act, and as soon as the men are once more at their posts, their grievances will be investigated by the various superintendents.The definition as to what is to be adjudged a criminal act, and the assurance that our \u201cgricv- ances will be considered, will be closcly watched by this Committee of Engineers and Trainmen, who will stand between us and the Compuny, and see that the concessions which have been promised are carried out.\u201d .\u201cDo you regard the outcome as 2.vie- tory for the men?\u201d Mr Powell was asked.\u201cIt is not a question of victory on either side,\u201d he replied, \u201cit is simply u question of conciliation, to be followed by arbitration.You will remember that three or four days ago I stated on behalf of our men that we were prepared to take advantage of any reasonable means of settlement, if possible, by arbitration.A means has been fered, and we ure quite willing to see what is the outcome of it.We know that many things are said and done during the heat of battle which would not be thought of in moments of tranguil- ity.and we think now that the officials of the company have pledged their word to see that our grievances are congider- ed, they will be as good as their word, and this quite apart from the fact that the \u2018other organizations will be beside us to see that the agreement is cartied Whatever may be the exact understanding which was agreed to by both urties last evening, there can be no mistaking the fact that those.of the strikers who have made the Atblon botel their headquarters for some time past, and have had an opportunity to se Mr.Powell, Mr.Pierson and the members of the deputation, are highly delighted with the resylt of the rike.One of them said this morning : \u201cWe have won, and, more than that, members of the other organizations frankly state that they were surprised ot the fight we put up, and say that we come out of the strike better off tban many other strikers whose success was conceded by the companies they fought against.| \u201cif we had gained nothing else, the mere fact that we are to have a regular sgreement and schedule with the company, the same as the other recognized organizations represented on the system is in its-I{ a great step forward.\u201d The strike, and the good offices of the members of other organizations, who brought about the settlement, once more calls attention to the fact that for some time past members of the various brotherhoods\u2014the trainmen especially \u2014 bave been advocating tha formation of a oentral arbitration committee for the whole C.P.R.system, which shall deal with all disputes between the management and the men.\u2019 It is quite possible that this may be the last time that the strike will he used a8 8 metnod of argument.The Company is put to great inconvenience and to very considerable expense, even if the strained conditions only exist for a few days, while the men find that ven if they win they do 30 after spend- ng much bard earned \u2018money and wasting a great deal of time, \u2018which is.equal to money.It was stated this afternoon that Mr.Whyte.the General Superintendent of the Westorn Division, fms refused to allow members of the O.R.T.to resume work on that ættion of the system; that the men had appealed to their chief in rd to the matter, and that the latrer selves during the dispute, to return to their offices pute.ur this afternoon, was regarding the conditions upon which the strike had been oalled off, : \u201cEverything is contained in the mes- e which was sent out last night,\u201d he said, \u201cDid the strikers resume work ahso- lutely without conditions!\u201d was the next question.; \u201cI can only say that everything is the reply._ 3 _- \u201cToronto, Ont., October 7\u2014 At the Union Station this morning nothing was known as to the exact terms of the settlement of the C.P.R.telegraphers\u2019 strike beyond that all strikers who had not been guilty of any criminal action were to go buck to work.Mr.Leonurd is still in Montreal, but Mr.Williams and Mr.Price were actively engaged receiving back the old bands who Had remained on «trike.The strikers appeared perfectly satisfied with the resvit of the strike; having every coandence that the officers of their order have secured sone, if not all, of the comoessions demanded.They received a telegraphic circular from Mr.Piemson as follows: Strike declared off az three o'clock this morning; go back to work ant assist the company all you can in moving the traffic.Mr.Price amd Mr.Williams took a somewhat different view of the matter from the men.They are convinced the men have not gained anything by their action.Of the 106 operators un the division controlled from Toronto, twenty-three had been replaced by new men, and these are al! who will bo effected by the order of reinstatement.Of the men who went out on strike but wbo offered to return before the settlement, all have alreuty been reinstated except two men at Owen Sound.Winnipeg, October 7.\u2014An official of the telegraphers said this morning

Street.Judge Dugas presided in the Court of Special Sessions, this morning, when Frank Brady.A.Schlossberg, B.Bennett and Isaac the alleged munagers of the Commercial Club, which up till July 10th, occupied rovms at No.5391-2 Craig streot, were arraigned on a charge of vonducting à common gaming house.On that date the places was raided by High Constable Bissonnette on a warrant sworn out by Phillip Gold, who claimed to have been swindled out of a sum of money there by the persons mentioned ubove.The complainant went into the box this morning and related lus story which was in brief that he lost sixty dollars and two gold watches In a game of \u201cstud poker.\u201d He claimed that he was fleeced and made some remark about marked cards, but was called to order by the Court.As far us the card playing went the judge said there was no offence.Card-playing in itself was pertectl legal, as long as the chances were equal.Gambling under the section of the code on which thie accused were on triai referred to such games as roulette faro, baccarat, ete, where a bank was kept.* This little explanation enabled the prosecution to take up another phase and the witness proceeded by saying that although there was not a bank, there was wnat was called \u201ca rake off,\u201d meaning that a certain amount was deducted fram: the pool and put in a \u201ckitty,\u201d which was!to be divided amongst the accused.° Mr.W.A.Weir, who appeared for Brady and Schloesbburg, asked Gold if it was mot a fuot that tho \u201ckitty\u201d was divided amongst the players.The witness repued at first that it was pot, but finally admitted that on one accusion that he did receive part of it.He had played in the place several times when it was known under the name of the St leon Club, and had \u2018seen Vineberg and Bemault there, le \u2018was not asked to become a member of any club, nor did he da anything to give him tbe privileges of the place it it were a club, The defence produced a book labelled \u2018Visitors\u2019 Register,\u201d and turning up a page asked Gold if the signature point- el out was his.He said it was, hut that the words \u2018introduced by Bem- aul,\u201d were added since July 10.Further on his name appeared again as introduced by Brady.Here the judge again interposed.The point at issue was not as to whether the place was ty a club.It was whether they were guilty of conducting a game of chance.\u2018T'his appeared to put a damper on the defence, for after a few other unimportant questions they allowed the witness to step\u2018down, as they were only endeavoring to prove it was a club.Several other witnesses were examined as to how the rooms were furnished, ete, and the Court adjourned at one o'clock for lunch.\u201c7 DEATH OF MR.F.TORRANCE, It

Quebec, Que., October 7.\u2014Hon.R.R.Dobell left for Ottawa last evening, and before leaviug, was interviewed by a Daily Telegraph reporter, on different subjects relating to this city.: Speaking on the question of fast line of steamers, be said: \u2018I consider it un al- \u2018solute necessity for the country thet we should hive.a better service of passenger steamers between Great Britain and Canada than we bave.Up to about fifteen years ago, Canada was actually taking a lead in the steamship service across the Atlantic, but from that time to the present, this service has been gradually going behind hand, while the lines.to New.York have been progressing, not only in the size of the.vessels, but also in their apeed, so that today our service on the St.Lawrence does nut bear any comparison tu that from New York.\u201cThe chief cause, I believe, is that the Government gradually reduced tho sullsidis to such a small sum that a first-class passenger service could not bs kopt up, and that, in consequence, steamship owners paid more attention to freight and cattlé business than to the passenger service.The remedy is again to offer such a subsidy as will comand the best steamship services to be enlisted in the trade.The vessels must not quly bx of the most approved build, with extra geod accommodation for firstælass passongers, including all the comforts now requisite for cabin passengers, but there should be ample room, with more than the ordinary comfort, for second-class passengers, while provision should ba made to take a large number of steerage passengers.\u201cAnd for the conveyance of these, a maximum rate sbould be reed on, which a handsome subsidy would enable steamship owners to provide at a low cost.This would.be the best way of stimulating immigration, and the Teast costly way of helping the farming class to come to Canada ?\u201d \u201cWhat do you consider the minimum rate of speed of such vessels?\u201d \u2018The minimum rate of speed which should be arranged for is a very vexed question, and there are many points to be considered before a satisfactory und defensible arrangement can be entered into.\" \u201cWe ought to enquire carefully into the.working of the present lines of \u2018steamships which have been running at or over twenty knots per hour for the past three or four years.We should try and learn if the working of these steamers has been satisfactory; if the \u201cstrain of forcing them through the water at such a speed has caused them injury; and if not, whether the financial results have been such as would justify the Canadian Government in expending such a large sum of money as is demanded, for a twenty-knot Bser- vice: or whether greater benefit could not be derived ly providing for equal accommodation, but at a less speed and at a much less yearly outlay.\u201cEvery day improvements in machin- \u201cery are making it less difficult to en- hanco the speed, and a greater provision is made in the construction of steamers to lessen the vibration.I am entirely in favor of making a considerable sacrifice to secure the co-opera- tion of the British Government in this enterprise, and am of opinion that no effort should be spared to work in conjunction with Great Britain to establish such a line as will be a credit to Canada and give satistaction to her people.Lu, Mr.Dobell is also in favor of deepening the St.Lawrence canals, and fay- orable to the Quebec bridge, which bo thinks a national necessity.\"ANOTHER DULL DAY.(Special to the Star.) «New York, October 7.\u2014The stock market to-day was again extraordinarily dull, and the transactions were significant only of the monetary sentiment of the small room traders.In the forenoon they put prices up a little on the announcement that gold imports had been resumed, $500,(00 in eagles having been engaged at the Bank of Englan to-day.Later the gain was lost on the news that the bank had incréased its rice for gold.The continuing factor s the nervousness of small holders.As election day approaches this is causing som-< hoarding of gold and selling of securities.The big interests regard this calmly.They thought over-confidence was going tod far a fortnight ago.All the news to-day was favorable, sterlin exchange bring weaker in the face of gold imports.The Bank of British North America took the gold in London today.REAL FIGHTING IN CUBA.Havana, October 7.\u2014Lieut.-Col.Gra- nados reports that shortly after his column left Pinar del rio City on Tuesday, Lie found at Guama, and Cantabaria a Spanish column surrounded by 2000 rebels, who had bren sent by Maceo to attack the Spaniards.Lieut.-Col.Gra- nados made a vigorous attack upon the enemy, who fired twelve cannon shots at close range.A prompt retreat to Cantabaria saved Granados\u2019 command as well.a8 the Spenish troops which had been surrounded.The Spanish forces were united at Cuntabaria, and in the meantime the rebels had taken positions at Loma Blanca.The united Spanish forces maud= an attack on the rebels, who were dislodged from their itions after a fight lasting five hours.The rebels lost eighty killed .and a large number wounded.The Spaniards had 12 killed and 92 wounded, including four officers.Lieut.-Col.Granados had started, to march back to Pinar del rio, when at 8 pm.heard cannonading on the other side of the hills.A fierce engagement occurred at Teja Del Negro between a force of 70\" Spanish troops under Gen.Bernal and the forces of Maceo.The rebels occupied good and extensive positions.enemy made a stubborn defence, but were finally dislodged with a loss 100 killed.It is said that: when the retired they carricd over 200 wounded, The Spanish losses were Lisut.-Colonel Romero and Gen.Bernal's adjutant, Lieut.-Col.Chasel, and eitht other officers wounded; 18 privates killed and 65 wounded.: - \u201c THE CASE OF TYNAN.London, October 7.\u2014The_ Mornin Post says that Scotland Yard an Treasury officials feel no doubt that P, J.Tynan, under arrest at Boulogne-.Surdamer, will be extradited.and ar- reigned at Bow Street Police Court in London before the end ot the month.ABANDONED THEIR BOAT.Fast Tawas, Mich., October 7.\u2014The Canadian steamer Shickluna, recently released from the beach at Fish Point, has left for Detroit in tow of the tug Thomson.owners of her consort, the St.Louis, have stripped and abandoned their boat.+ Ex-Mayor Cowan, of Gananoque, Ont., died suddenly of paralysis \u2018last night.Michael's.University at Logansport Ind., was destroyed by fire on Tuesday night.Al the students escaped.The.loss is $30,000 and the insurance $35,000.Frank Kerchmer, prominently don- pectod with theatrical gnicrprises in, To ronte,-and a native of Waterloo, Ont.-disd brain fever y at St.Michael\u2019s Hospital, Toronto.5 re \u2018oughly eradicates the humor from the known among rail men as souri and Pacific Railay.i TA Scrofula Li Lurks in the blood of almost every one and it I8 in many cases inherited.Its severest form 1s that of running sores\u2019 on the arms, limbs or feet.Bunches on the glands of the neck, pimples, cancerous growths, swollen joints, are other symptoms.Hood's Sarsaparilla thor- blood aud cures &crofula, Salt Rheum, Boils, Pimples, Eruptions.\u201cFor about two years I have troubled with pimples on my face and scrofula swellings.J went to a doctor.but he did not help me, and 1 began taking Hood's Sarsaparilla.Before I had finished the second bottle I was cured, and I have not been troubled with scrofula since.\u2019 FRANK BEECHNOR, North Manlius, N.Y.Scrofula Cured.\u201cMy little boy's blood was in a bad condition and scrotuls sores broke out on his neck.\u201d He has taken three.bottles of Hood's Sarsaparilla and is now well.I am very thankful for the benefit.derived from Hood's Sarsaparilla.\u201d J.W.A.MORRIS, Pacolet, SC.Hoods Sarsaparilla Is the One Truc Blood Purifier, All druggists.$1.are urely vegetablo, carefully prepared, 25c, been Hood\u2019s Pills C USEFUL Wedding Presents !
