publishes the foi- lowing editorial on General Laurie's advocacy of a view of Imperial defence which differs from that commonly accepted: : Lieut.-General Wimburn Laurie has taken up the cudgels for Canada in the matter of her attitude towards the problem of Imperial defence, and the points he raises increase eme's regret that rewpon- sible British politiclans, not to speak of British Ministers, should talk on this question with such utter disregard of the Colonial point of view.; : It Is pretty certain, says General Laurie, in the first place, that, if the Colonial mercantile marine were wiped out of existence to-morrow, it would not be possible or advisable to reduce the squadrons on home or foreign stations by a single vessel.as it has been always understood that these squadrons arc maintained at certain strength as a matter of Imperial policy, and not for local requirements.Moreover, Britaln would still] have to maintain naval bases at such ports as Halifax, and \u2018If Canada were not behind them, Halifax couid hardly have been held as it was during the late war by a handful of artillery and engineers, or Esquimalt by a company of artillery; or if Australia were independent, Sydney could not have been ular army.\u201d Again: \u201cThe foreign commerce carried from and to the various Colonies is for the most part associated with the business of the country, and if, from any cause, Colonia) capital was withdrawn and ceased to be invested in shipping.it would be necessary for the Mother Country, In the interests of its own trade, to replace those vessels, and this would make a serious demand on Its available capital.And.further, it will be found on Inquiry that instances are very rare in which our warships have rendered any direct service to our Colonial merchant vessels.\u201d General Laurie would, of course, be glad, Hke the rest of us, to see the burdens of the Empire equally distributed among the citixens of the Empire, but in that case the privileges must also be equally distributed, and among the privileges is that of deciding the policy for which you pay.Here we are at once Gen.Wimburn Laurie and Imperial Defence left without a single soldier of the reg- launched upon the whole problem of the future of the British Empire, and wise men are content to leave that problem to work itself out In fits own natural way.The spirit of inter-Imperial co-op- eration was never greater than ft is today, and was never more generally in evidence.When the Mother Country is prepared to consider the whole prédièm of Imperial representation, as well as Imperial! taxation, thén we shall have something to talk about.but It ta more than unstateamanlike to gird at the Colo- niles hecause they do not see the wisdom of nibbling at the problem piecemeal and from æ British standpoint onty.That is not to say that the Imperial Federation- ist need stand still.As General Laurie says, \u2018Instead of pressing for cash contributions to the navy, which could not be furnished in proportion to population by young countries whose resources are taxed to the utmost for their urgent development, it might be more fitting to arrange with them to take over the maintenance and defence of certain naval bases.\u2018 Let us, then, sum up In General Laurie's own words the Colonial case: \u201cl.The large investments of Colonial capital in vessels which carry on the commerce of the Empire is a distinct benefit, because a distinct addition to the resources of the Mother Country.\u201c2.The guarding and supplying of the naval bases abroad, both in peace and war, fs an important contribution to the naval defence of the Empire \u20182.The disappearance of the whole Colonial mercantile marine would not reduce the naval expenditure of this country by a single shillinæ.\u20184 The benefits actually and directly conferred on the Colonial merchant shipping are not such as to justify the charges against the Colonies that they are receiving benefits at the expenses of the home taxpayer and not giving value for them.\u201cFrom this point of view the Colonies are, as regards naval défence, very far from being such A burden to the Mother Country as is often represented.\" It is well to have the Colonial case so clearly stated.Mr.Arnold Foster may now reflect upon his \u201cpersistent apathy\" speeth.THE OSTRICH IN CAPTIVITY.Ostrich Farming a Profitable Business, But the Big Birds are Very Treacherous and Hard to Manage.The ostrich-farm at Phoenix, Arizona, gathers ita harvest of feathers twice a year.Although the business was begun only fifteen years ago, with a small number of birds, the flock now numbers one thousand.The annual yield of each bird is valued at thirty dollars, the eggs at one dollar and fifty cents each; and as an oe trich\u2019s life barring fatalities of battle, averages seventy years, it may be seen that the proprietor of the farm has a valuable business invéetment._ Granting the neceemry means and facilities, however, it is not a simple matter to conduct an ostrich-farm demands ial training and acute obeer- vation.The ostrich requires in his management, aside from other necessary qualifications, a master's hand\u2014a strict hand he is at all appreciative of kindness.He never becomes thoroughly Somesticated, it ie said by those who know him in captivity, and is utterly deetitute of that affection which

their first duty 1s to enforce ihe law and to pre- - serve the peace.To talk about arbitration when acts of violence are being committed and the police set at.defiance is folly.There can be no arbitration of the ques tion whether union men have the right to prevent non-union men from working; or thè right to destroy property.Nobody questions the right of the union men to stgike but the right of other men to work is equally unquestionable and ought to be maintained by the guardians of law and order at any cost.The curse of thia continent is that individual liberty is rapidly being destroyed.\u2018 ,Ç CHILD LABOUR.° _+.Mr.Louis Guyon.chief inspector of industrial establishments and public build- \" ings.in this province, in his annual re- \u2018port suggests that the law fixing the minimum age at which children may be em- -ployed in factories should be amended.He advocates a system of admitting children into factories based more upon their physical condition and degree of education than on their age.He says: \" «] find, however, that the age of 12 \"years for boys is not- old enough.These little beginners have been only a very short time at school.and at that age it is certain that in a year or six months they will have completely forgotten what they lave bad such pains to learn.with the \u201cview of obtaining information on this \u2018point, I personally examined the children \u2018af both sexes in one of our large cotton \u2018vinills, and out of 65 girls between 14 and 18 who céuld reed fairly, but wrote with difficulty.and 34 who cquid read and \u201cwrite.Out of an equal number of boys 716, 1 found 13 who.were.quite illiterate, | between 12 and 15, 21 Were quite illiterate; 11 could read, but could hardly sign their names, and 33 oould read and write French in a rudimentary menner.Most of these illiterate boys were 14 and 15 years old, clearly showing that during their stay of 2 or 3 years in the factory they had completely forgotten the little they knew when they entered it.\u201d The law which prescribes a uniform minimum age at which children can be employed in factories also prescribes a uniform maximum number of hours during which they can be kept at work.A twelve year old child working sixty hours a week in a factory would certainly seem to have every chance to forget all be had learned at school before his twelfth birthday.Mr.Guyon is right, however, in advocating a system of examination which will take into consideration the physical condition of the children.It step farther the circum- The limit is sixty hours per week.might even be wise to go a and take into consideration stances of the family.Child labour in factories ip open to many objections, but in some cases 1t is the only alternative to something worse\u2014ohild starvation.FIGHTING CORRUPTION IN CHICAGO.The weakness of all kinds of political reform in their endless conflict with the buccaneer influences in public life, is that they lack the orgamization which is a second nature to the \u201craiders.\u201d Men who are in politics for what they can make out of it, feel that they can afford to keep up a perpetual organization, to spend money om gathering information and building up connections, and to work at the \u201cjob\u201d of political \u2018\u201cfenang and ditching\u201d like a regular business for fifty-two weeks a year.The \u201creformer\u201d on the other hand, is steadily out of pocket.He cannot recoup himself out of the public purse.He, therefore, can only give to the struggle the fag-ends of his time.An effort is being made in Chicago to get rid of this handicap.A Municipal Voters\u2019 League has been formed\u2014we take our information from an article in \u201cChnstendom,\u201d a new moral reform publication in that city\u2014which consists of an executive committee of mine men, supported by a large membership throughout the city.One third of the membership of this executive retire each\u2019 year, the vacancies being filled by the unanimous vote of those \u2018holding over.\u201d This central committee appoints a finance committee and an advisory committee outside of ite own memberahip.The League fights steadily throughout the year the battle of municipal reform.It has permanent headquarters where a staff is always at work col- lectidg, tabulating and preserving political information.It never has to go into a war without knowing the political map of the country where the operations are to take place.lt studies the character of candidates and possible candidates; it supports with reasons, good candi.didates when they appear; and, where none appear, it co-operates with the pub- lic-spirited citizens of that ward to bring out good men.Undoubtedly only such tirelege campaigning as this can wear down the corrupt elements.The general sense of the public is in favour of honest government; but it is ineffective so long as à lacks leadership and organization.No city need be given over to \u201csack,\u201d if even a handful of good men will devote themselves to the task of making the conscience of the majority effective.THE VICTIM OF OVER-CROWD- ING.The evidence taken at the inquest into the death of Jean Vaillancourt, who was killed whue standing on the foot-board of an open electric car, appears to leave the responsibility for dangerous over-crowding squarely on the civic authorities.Superintendent Robinson, of the Street Railway, declared that the company had tried to get some protection from the city agaist over-crowding; but had failed.Cry Surveyor Barlow and Sub-Chief of Police Camipeau both stated that there was no by-law or police instructions to provide against over-crowding.This was at an inquest on the body of a man who was killed by overcrowding; and others lie in the hospital with injuries received at the same time from thé same cause.| When overcrowding only séemed to be an inconvenience, our miraculously patient people endured it with nothing more than a rumble of protest.But now that it \u2018a demonstrated that iv is a murderous thing.patience becomes something very like criminal complicity.\u2018 And there is absolutely no reason why it should continue.It is not only a curable evil; but one whose cure is absurdly easy.As we have urged time and again in these columns, there is not an overcrowded street car in the congested cities of Europe.All that is needed is a short, decisive City By-law which will forbid more people to get in or on a street car than can be seated, with the exception of a certain definite numbér who may stand on the rear platform.That will do the business; and nothing else will.If it is to be left to the discretion of any one\u2014conductor or policeman\u2014to say when the stage of \u201covercrowding\u201d has been reeched, we shall simply have perpetual disputes between would-be passengers and officials; and we will continue to suffer from overcrowded cars.But so plain a rule as that each car holds so many seated passengers, and that it is officially \u201cfull\u201d when that number are on the seats, leaves po room for disputes and plenty of room for the passengers.It is idle to say that such a rule cannot be enforced, because it is enforced all over Europe; and it is equally foglish to pretend that the street car people®cannot handle the traffic of Montreal on this system.for the traffic of London, Paris snd Berlin is handled.on exactly this system.Another such accident as that which killed Jean Vaillancourt may happen any day.The City Council should not lose an unnecessary hour in leginlatiniy against city by-law can save lives, but here is a case in which it can;

in return she has taken, mainly, wool, 1n- dia rubber.dried Cape flowers and hides.mitted free of duty in accordance with the most favoured nation clause.Reprisals aimed at Canada will also affect South Africa.European comment upon the action of Canada and South Africa is considerable.M.Yves Guyot, in the Paris Siecle, takes the opportunity of reminding the Continental critics that, up to a comparatively recent date, certain sagacious prophets did not fail to predict that on the occurrence of the first great difficulty the British colonies would.abandon the Mother Country.M.Guyot argues that the circumstance of Hritain being unable to make any return for the favour accorded to her by Canada and the South African colonies, is one more proof that the idea of a l\u2019an-Britannie Customs Union 18 incapable of realization; because four- fifths of her total importe come from for- éign countrics, while of her totäl exports the colomes only purchase 35.4 per vent.against 64.6 per cent.sent to forcign flags.M.Guyot, however, strenuously combats the idea that differences of fiscal policy between the Mother Country and her self governing colonies will affect their politi: cal attitude towards each other and the unity of their action against any attempt to break up the union which exista between them.The whole tenour of the comments now made upon the relation of Britain to Greater Britain by the public men and the leading organs of public thought upon the continent, show what an education the events of the last three years has been to those who imagine the interest of the Briton over seas in the maintenance of the Empire was merely skin deep.Any concerted action by the governments of the continent to enforce discrimination against the British Colonies is likely to favour the growth of the desire for a closer commercial union between all parts of the Empire.Such great progress has been made towards the realization of an idea which was once ridiculed that we are encouraged to look beyond the difficulties of the moment as instanced in Mr.Ritchie's retrogressive Budget step.The season has arrived when the papers begin to discuss why the young folks do not stay on the farms.If the real cause were to be put 1n a phrase, it would probably be\u2014\u2018\u201clack of amusement.\u201d Elderly people and those to whom amusement has become a weariness, scout the notion that a sane persoa can be influenced in so important a matter as the choige of a life- employment by the opportunities it brings to have a good time, But to the young mind, it is very apt tu be the chief fact of life.Even ambition is a thing of later growth.So the young men and women flack up to the cities, ready to take any sort of a job so long as it enables them to live near bright, busy slreets and the cheap pleasures of the town.A little more profit attached to farming will not counteract this lure.Nothing will, except the chance for a brighter and more social life on the farm.When a village springs up, it helps keep the young people of that neighbourhood contented.Concerts and pic-nics and \u201cdoings\u201d generally have a capital influence.Even the much-abused travelling circus may satisfy a longing for glitter and excitement.Plenty of good reading, eaey access to up-to\u2018date papers, are always forces on the right sida.What the farm needs is more social illumination \u2014less grind and more gayety.\u2014emmnetfremns McGill Class Reception.The McGill graduating class tea and musicale took place ye y afternoon at the Engineering building.A short programme was rendered consisting of instrumental solos by Miss Lichenstein and Miss Cox, and vocal solos by Miss Shepherd and Mr.McKergow.Refreshments were also served, and those present had an enjoyable time.The committee consisted of the following: President.P.J., secretary, T.S.McMorran;

Arbitration is Possible.The carpénters an@ joiners\u2019 strike ia still in an unsettled condition.There was a meeting of the Master Buliders\u2019 Association last night in the Mechanics\u2019 Institute, when the situation was talked over for several hours.It was finally decided to request the men to submit the whole matter to arbitration and the secretary was instructed to notify the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners to this effect.HOPES FOR SETTLEMENT.Mr.E.M.Roberts.of the firm of George Roberts.who are large employers of labour, expressed the hope to-day that the difficulty would be arranged without any further delay.He admitted that 223% cents per hour was a reasonable request.but the great trouble was the majority of the smaller emplôyers did not Want to pay this amount, and 17 the real employers of labour agreed to the demands, they would be placed at a decided disadvantage when competing for work.He said he knew for a positive fact that good carpenters were leaving the city and the country every day because they could get hetter wages elsewhere.This applied more especially to the English speaking men.: TIRED OF PRESENT CONDITION.Mr.James.Simpson.of the firm of Simpson and Pell, who are among the largest employers of labour In the city.said to-day that he was sick and tired of the whole thing.Before the atrike occurred the firm was willing to pay 2214 cents for a nine-hour day.and they were still willing to pay that price, but there were n large number of builders who only employed a few men each, and they were opposed tc making the minimum any higher than 20 cents per hour, and as they were all members of .the Association, he had to bow fo the will of the majority.He intimated'that something would have to happen soon or Be would make a change.CANNOT ARBITRATE NOW.Mr.Ed.Herthiaume.secretary-treasurer of the District Council of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners.stated that in his opinion the offer of arbitration, if it.had been made.would be refused.As a matter of fact.he sald, there is now nothing to arbitrate, as the entered Into contracts with mibre than forty of the builders and contractors, and it would be a greqt breach of faith and decigedly unjust to arbitrate the question with those who have failed to sign.He believed that the legitimate employers of labour.with whom the Brotherhood had no quarrel, except \u2018they wanted a little more money, would yet agree to the demands, and then the Brotherhood would deal with the contractors who only employ one or two men each.He belleved that the Brother- such men: entirely out of business refused to come to terms.Mr.Berthiaume states that 2.000 men will line up to-morrow night at 7 o'clock ip front of St.Jogeph's Hall, for the purpose of taking part

TO .BIGOTRY IN ALL LANDS.Feeling at Vatican is That Coronation Declaration is a Mere Legal Anachronism.* (Special Cable from a Montreal Star Correspondent.) Rome.April 29 \u2014\u2018King Edward's interview with Pope Leo XIII.which took place at the Vatican this afternoon, will probäbly be considered by some future writers as one of the greatest events in politico-ecclesiastical history of the first decade of the 20th century,\u201d said a prominent Italian to a Star correspondent.The august parties to ceremony repre sent.respectively, temporal and spiritual empires of vast power and magnitude.The: King is a Protestant and rules an intense.| + Iv Protestant.people.The Pope is the sovereign of the Catholic world.These mighty personages came together on the common ground of courtesy, good will and mutual respect.Their example will exert a powerful influence on the imaginations and hearts of men.It means a bl to bigotry that may precede the amation of peace among religious systems and sects.\u201cNothing could be more important than this.because much of the world's moral eperxv 18 still wasted in warfare, where thére should be unity.The King ~~ the Pope practically sav tn Christians everywhere to respect each other's faiths, which mav not agree, but the purposes of which are net far apam.Their combined destructive power should be directed against what is hateful to both.Generous spirits in all lands applaud King Edward for haviog seized this oppor.tupitv.while engaged in a tour dedicated to political peace.to render

His Visit There.Special to The Montreal Star.Berlin, April 29 \u2014A train load of the Emperor's horses and equipages left here for Rome to-day.so that His Majeaty,when calling on the Pope, need not use a ecar- riage of King Victor Emmanuel, whose liveries have not vet been inside the Papal precincts.As the Emperor had to send one royal vehicle, he concluded to send two, with eight coach horses.three saddle horses and twenty coachmen, grooms and hostlers.The story that the Empress is not going to Rome with His Majesty.because she is not willing to call on the Pope on aec- count of ler strong Protestant beliefs, 1s considered to be of sufficient importance officially as to require an authoritative denial, which cites the fact that the Empress called on the Pope during her former visit to Rome, and that her fractured arm is really the cause of her staying home.* \\FIRE AT ALEXANDRIA.Carriage Shop and Several Other |, Buildings Destroyed.Special to The Montreal

; Mr.Boyd said he had been surprised to hear that Gamey was going to support the Government and bad asked how he was going to get along with the Conservatives on the Island.Gamey said there were only about four Conservatives on the Island that he needed to care about.He mentioned Irving, of Manitowing, Turner.and Dr.Johnston, of Gore Bay.He said he could concilitate Turner by means of his telephone line from Little Current.He would try and get him the Government subsidy for his telephone line.No Minis ters\u2019 names were mentioned'at the interview.He had spoken of the actiom of Mr.Beattie, of Parry Sound, who had adopted a similar course to the great advantage of the constituency.Gamey claimed to have polled a great number of liberdl votes.COMPARED THE LEADERS.Mr.Gamey had drawn a comparison between Mr.Whitney and Mr.Roses as leader» and had stated .that he aid not think Mr.Whitney understood the needs of Northern Ontario as well &s did Mr.Rom and the Goverment.Q.\u2014Was this a voluntary conversation on Mr.Gamey's part?asked Mr.Johnston.A\u2014\u201cIt seemed to be.\u201d Q.~Was it solicited by you in any wey?A+Ne.; \u2018 = Q.\u2014Did you go there for this purpose?A\u2014No, I was driving past and he was standing at the gate and he asked me to come in.I went in and stayed to dinner.Mr.Boyd said that previously be had not known ef anv change in Mr.a attitude towards the Ross Government.He did not see Mr.Gamey again until after the House met.\u2026 Mr.Johnston then examined him on the | informed that Mr.Gamey had the L letters which have been filed as exhibits.On one occasion Mr.Boyd advised the Government to go slow with Gamey and did not concur in his recommendation for road grants.He thought there was more of personal interest than public interest in the recommendation.Cross-examined by Mr.Ritchie, Mr.Boyd told more in detail of how he came to be at Mr.Gamey's house on the 18th of August.He bad left the Soo on the 10th, and had stayed all night at Providence Bay.which is about fifteen miles from Gamev's house.He had been going to Silverwater.some forty miles distance, but had intended going to Gore Bay for dinner.Gamev\u2019's house was on the road to Gore Bav.but was two and a half miles out of the way to Silverwater.It might have been as early as ten o'clock in the morning when he arrived st Gamey\u2019s.He had not gone in until \u2018he had been asked, which was nearly as soon as he arrived at the gate.Q.\u2014Do yourwwear that vou did not intend to stop there?asked Mr.Ritchie.A.\u2014Yes, I do.Q.\u2014 You did not know be had been to Toronto?A.\u2014No.Q\u2014When did he tell of the conversation?A\u2014After Gamey made his statement in the House.Q\u2014To whom?A\u2014To Mr.Brodie and mv brother.Q\u2014Not to any Ministers?A \u2014No.Mr.Boyd said that in addition to fixing up Turner en the tel Gamey had said he woul ston by getting him a surgeon, and he would Mr.Irving.; Q\u2014You are a strong Réformer?said Mr.Ritchie.You write that way?A.\u2014I work on colonization roads.Q.\u2014Do you do any political work?'A\u2014 I'm not supp to.Q\u2014Why didn't you communicate to some of the Ministers your conversation with Mr.Gamey?A.\u20141 did not consider that my business.GOSSIP ABOUT PATRONAGE.- Mr.Boyd said he had not been officially t- ronage.It had been common gossip, but he himself had atways doubted it.Q\u2014 You did not believe in giving Games the patronage?A.\u2014Well, F did not be lieve he was using it in the interesta he said he was.Q.\u2014~You were willing to give him the patronege if \u2018it was to thé advantage of your party?A.\u2014Well, yes.Chancellor Boyd\u2014Is not that what parties are for in this country?Qt would be a decided advantage to the Government to get his vote?A.\u2014Yes it would.,Q.\u2014And that is what you mean in your letter to Mr.Latchford, when you ad vise against giving Gamey the patrdnage unless there was some decided advantage to be gained?! A.\u2014Well to some ex hone line, Mr.fix Dr.John- ointed as gaol nd some job for tent.Q.\u2014Was there any other advan to be gained by the Government?A.\u2014Well, 1 don\u2019t know of any.Q.\u2014

ambulance of the Royal Viotoria Hospitl, but on ita arrival the man was dead and the body was taken to the morgue.George Collin, the bell-boy, testified to the fact that Roller had been engaged in

as a mystery.about the army of officials who constitute the King's Household; and the least curious man has probably often spec: ulated.as to what kind of a man a Gentle man-Usher Quarterly Waiter can possibly be and how he differs from a Greom of the Great Chamber, or as to what are the duties of a Gentleman-Purter and a Page of the Back Stairs.It is quite a small world in itself, this domestic retinue of the King, a world as interesting as it is little known; and many of its inhabitants are the most enviable of men.Who, for instance, would not be - willing to chan laces with the Clerk of the King's Rite en, wnattractive as the title may appear?This gentleman is said to be the autocrat of the under: world of the Royal palaces, where all the dainty dishes are made that \u2018\u2018are set before the King\u201d; and, as becomes such an important official, he is reputed to fare more delicately than any gourmand in the United Kingdom.As a reward for his agreeable duties he receives £700 a year, with irreproachable \u201cboard and lodgng.\u201d and has a personal retinue of four clerks and a messenger.Then there 3s a chief cook, the culinary Caesar of the kitchens.who also draws £700 a year, and no doubt earns it well; and whose word is law to a small army of wmaster-cooks, assistant cooks.apprentices, steam apparatus men, roasting cooks and kitchetimaids, to mention a few only of his subjects.- The Yoemen of the Confectionary Department are psasing rich oh £200 and £250 a year, with the best of board and lodging; and there are a pastry-cook and a r, with his own body-guard of assistants; while there is also a dignified official known as the * d-man.\u2019 £500 a year, 1s entrusted the ordering of the Royal wines and the custody of the Sellars: while two officials, | wh ent uty it le to_ re an the tables.receives £200 a year each.- From the errand man to the Lord Steward,the supreme head of the King's Household, is 8 t jump; for the Lord Steward 1s Field-Marshal of the army in which the gentleman who runs esra: is a private.The Lord Steward, who receives £2,000 a Jor and is always a great nobleman, is first of the four great officers of the Royal Household, of whom the others are the Treasurer, Comptroller, and the Master of the Household, the last- named ranking next in salary to his chief, with £1.158 a year\u2014to which must be added the privilege of dining at the King's own .There are four ial dignitaries who preside in a judicial capacity at the Board of Green Cloth and the Court of the Mar- shalsea\u2014two little-known courts, of large and variéd jurisdiction.The Court of Green Cloth not only includes Buckingham Palace within its dominion, but the whole district within a radius of twelve miles; and at one time held the power of life and death over traitors and murderer.Now, alas! jts funétion in chiefly to settle disputes on points of etiquette and precedence, or arrange kitchen and other domestic differences.The Court of the Marshal to which many officials, including constables, are attached, haa jumsdiction over al houses other than Buckingham Palace.~The Master of the Ceremonies in a very dignified and courtly official, a past- master on all points of etiquette and of grace of deportment.He receives the seemingly inadequate malary of £500 a year.The King's milit domestic retinue con- «ists of a corps of forty gentlemen-at-arma.each of whom receives a training salary of £100 a year.while the captain and litutenant respectively draw £1200 and £600 a year.The mediaeval gn en known as the Yoemen of the uard are rewarded by £90 a year each; and their captain, always a .receives £1,200.Fhe Keeper of the Privy Purse has the pleasing duty of signing all the King's cheques and dispensing his private charity, in return for £1.000 a year and many per uisites; while the Lord High Almoner, the Bishop of Ely.is responsible for the distribution of Royal alms on Maundy Thursday and on two other occasions during each year.e King\u2019s medical body-guard consists of twenty-two of the most eminent physicians and surgeons in Great Britain, to whom the honour is more than the comparatively small retaining fees they re ceive./ LL His musical taste is ministered to by an excellent band.which costa nearly £2000 a vear; of which the master receives £200, the conductor £100.and the instrumentalists £40, which is also the malary of the ten State trumpeters.Of more ornamental officials there are eight lordsin- waiting, all high nobles; as many grooms-in-waiting, dstingüiahed officers of the Navy, with three extra grooms-in-waitinf.The Gentle- men-Ushers are rn army in themselves, and are of many classes, of the Privy Chamber, Black Rod, and Daily and Quar- \u201cterly Waiters.Among lower-placed, and perhaps more useful, officiala the footmen receive from £60 to £80 n year: and, surprising to state, the wages of the Roval hongemaids range from £14 to £20 a vear.To these we must add a large number of Household officials, too numerous to mention, and ranging from the Librarian and Poet Laureste to the Master of the Royal Barge, the Keeper of the Swans, and that most mysterious official gentleman, the Coroner of the Verge.Special Notice.Piano and Organ Repairs.Have your piano repaired by Willis & Company.repairers in the city.Prices 1 Catherine street

- That Higher Tariff Would ~ Benefit Them.Special Staff Correspondence.: Prees Gallery, House of Commons, Ot an April 29.\u2014 The Budget debate again ocoupied the attention of the House yes- térday.Most of the speeches covered ground al y gone over.Dun the evening, the House waa practically deserted, a number of the members being 8% Mrs.Borden's reception.and the House adjourned early.The debate was resumed by Mr.W.& Maclaren (Huntingdon).Mr.Maclaren .his conatituents were chiefly dairy farmers, the price of whose products was fiked \u2018by the English market.He was, ore, in favour of a low tanff.and was op to any increase of duties, ae he believed the majority of the people were.He expressed sympathy for the members of he Government.becaus= of the var they were harrassed by delegations of manufacturers seeking to worry Î indo raising the tanff.(onserva- tives to-day admitted that the country was Promerous.When the present tariff was ght down, the Conservative leadera made most doldful prognosications of the ruin it was going to inflict on the industries of the country.He did not claim that -the-prosperity was entirely due to the ment.but the action of the Gov: ernment had contributed to it to some extent: The reduction of the duties had _beén beneficial.and what the Government.Had done in connection with cold storage bad greatly hel the farmers.He concluded by a tribute to the ability of the Metabers of the Government.who had auc- cessfully held their own in conferences with the leading statesman of the British Empire and the American Republic.FAT AND LEAN YEARS.\u201cMr.Richardson (South Grey) advised .the Minister of Commerce to apply to the Qovernpent the advice he had given the tWanufacturers\u2014to take advantage of the fat years to prepare for the lean ones by retrenching and paying off their debts.He \u2018deplored the bungling of the Government in.connection with its preferential , which had ended in plaring Canada in an attitude of trade hostility to Brit- sin, and \u201cwhich had involved us in a tariff war with Germany, which was inimical to our own interests and Lkely to prove dan- rous to the interests of the Empire.The Ecvermment's attitude towarde the United Slates was temporizing and contemptible.He considered that we could never get re- eiprocity from the United States until we fiest raised as high a tariff wall against as they have raised against A regard to immigration.he urged that the Government should give the sons of Eastern Canadian farmers the same encouragement to rettle in the North-West that they gave the Doukhobors.OBSERVE GOLDEN RULE.Mr.Hoimes (W.Huron).pleaded \u2018that the æolden rule should be observed in po- clared that none of the Conservatives had litics as well as by individuals.He de explained what they meant by \u201cadequate protection.\u201d He condemned Mr.Richardson for censuring the Government because it was retaliating against Germany, and in the same breath censuring it because it did pot adopt a retaliatory policy against the United States.The tanff must be framed on principles of compromise.He contended that the cotton manufacturers were.according to their own ar- _suments, holding their own against for: eign manufacturers.ev did not, therefore, need additional protection.He believed in a limited protection to the manufacturers, but not in unreasonable protection.He favoured reciprocal trade relations with the United States, prayided they could be obtained on fair and honorable tèrme.He thought exceptional tariff treatment might be extended to certain industries, among them the beet-sugar and salt industries.He did not think the duty on steel rails would be applied as the Opposition anticipated.THE FARMER AND PROTECTION.Mt.Taylor (South Leeds).claimed that the farmer was benefited by protection.He: instanced the increased production of pork in Canada as result of the duty on - pork: being increased by the Conservatives.« \u201csaid the Government had come mto power -over the corpse of the Manitoba school: question.The Premier had given a ge that he would send the late Sir Qliver Mowat te= Manitoba to settle the duæstion.But Sir Oliver Mowat was nev- bd sent to Manitoba, and the Archbishops r 8t.Boniface and Montreal declared the: question was not vet settled.The Gov- eminent had also been false to ita pledges in\u2019 regard to the prohibition plebisate, the abblition of the national policy, the reform of the Senate.the reduction of debt snd expenditure, and the reduction of the siytuber of ministers.and to many other promises made to the people.Mr.ylor condemned the ministers for neg- actink: their duties and going junketting the public expense.He referred to the thister' of Customs and the Minister of .lic Works as being the \u201cpack.horses\u201d of the Government.They were the only onde\u2019 gave a reasonable amount of time\u2019 to the performance of their duties.Be was particulariy severe on Hon.Sidney

year as compared with the Conservative expenditure of 1885.He contended this was the proper basis ol comparison, as the expenditure of 1896 had been cut down in anticipation of a general election.He took up the increases of expenditure in detail, and claimed that in every instance the increase was justified by the bpecessities of the circumstances.He challenged the Conservatives to condemn any of these increases in detail, and said if they were not prepared to declare against thèse increases in detail they bad no right to take the aggregate increased expenditure and denounce it as an evidence of extravagance.Col.Thompson made a od fighting speech, one of the best that bas been delivered an the Ministerial side in the course of the budget debate.He was frequently applauded .-during the course of his remarks.The adjournment of the debate was maved by Mr.Hackett (W.Prince, P .015 The following hills were introduced and read a first time: Respecting the Crown Bank of Canada

Senate adjourns on Friday, May 1, it stands adjourned till May 26th.In answer to Hon.Mr.Perley.Hon.R.W.Scott stated that Hon.Mr.Sifton was charged with the preparation of the Canadian Alarka Boundary case, the paper in which had to be exchanged on Satur day next.Hix object In going to London was to confer with Counsel.The Comms sion will meet in September.Mr.Sifton'a ant than his duties here.Hon.Mr.Macdonald, B.C, asked if Canada had inmsted upon the seventh Commissioner.The Commission consated of 3 on each side, It did not look as if anythin would be done.It was not a question » law, but of geography.Hon.R.W.Scott reminded the House that the International Commission had broken up over this question.The Senate knew something of the history of this question.He reminded the Chamber that the Imperial Govern ment had stood by and seen a Canadian territory gobbled up.The danger was the Yukon might be.too.The best course to was to accept the Commission He refrained from criticizing the American appointments.He did not agree that the mission would prove abortive.Both sides were bound to abide by the decision.Canada had chosen the highest legal tal ent at her command.The findings of this tribunal must have an effect upon the people of both countries.\" The bill relating to the custody of juvenile offenders in New Brunswick was discussed at considerable length in rom- mittee.Several objections were made to it on the ground that, if necessary, the legislation should apply to all the provinces, and not merely to New Brunswick.The bill was finally passed through Committee without amendment and given its third reading.The House took the Yukon Territory Act into consideration in committee.The till was slightly amended by inserting a clause making appeals to the Supreme Court \u201cin banquo,\u201d instead of allowing it to stand so that an appeal might be taken from the decision of one judge.The bill as amended was reported.GRAND TRUNK FAVOURS PROJECT SERIOUSLY.The Trans-Continental Line and the Plans That are Being Made Regarding it.Special to The Montreal Star.Ottawa, April 28.\u2014The report recently circulated here to the effect that the Grand Trunk Railway was not a to the proposed Grand Trunk Pacific Railway ave been set at rest by the vint of Sir Charles Rivers-Wilson to Ottawa and bis rterview with Sir Wilfrid Laurier.At the annual meeting of thé Grand Trunk Railway Company in don ou April 16, Sir Charles announced that the directora had caused a bill to be prepared providing for the creation of a seperate corporation for the construction of a railway running from a point on the Grand Trunk system, threugh the \u2018territoriés of the North-West, to an ultimate terminus on the Pacific coast.The line to be extended eastward as fas as Quebec.The bill in question has been completed by the Grand Trunk Railway citors and will be submitted to the Railway Committee on May 7.J Although, as Sir Charles Rivers Wilson says, a separate corporation will be created, the new line will in reality be an extension of the existing Grand Trunk system to the Pacific coast, runmng from is not believed that there will he any serious opposition to the passage of.thé bill.either in the Railway Committee or in the Houses of Parliament.The fact that the Canadian Pacific and Canadian Northern have been multiplying their branch lines in Manitoba and the Territorice since last barvest renders it all important for Parliament to provide another Canadian outlet for the , which if all goes well, will be larger this year than ever.SESSION MAY CLOSE ABOUT MIDDLE OF JUNE.Toronto, April 20.\u2014The Globe's Ottawa correspondent says: \u201cThe Government are of the opinion that the session will terminate about June 15.There

were made.A number of persons who attempted to rescue the prisoners stoned a commissary of police, and the police thereupon charged with drawn revolvers and fired about twenty shots in the air to intimidate the rioters.Strong reinforcements were then called.A protest was made by an official of that quarter of Marseilies against the insufficient protection afforded by the central authorities, and notified the prefect that unless a stronger guard was furnished to the inmates of the.convent, the friars would defend themselves by all the means in their power.Later in the day traffic was suspended in all the surrounding streets.gendarmes arrived, and rigid surveillance of the neighbourhood was established.Three policemen and a girl were more or less injured.The police finally decided

Sovereign, and which consist for thé most part of gold and silver plate, weighing altogether twenty-eight tons and valued at about $10,000,000, Kin Edward secsses a private collection o which little is known.} The museum near the equerries\u2019 entrance at Windsor was really established as recently as 1896, when some workmen en- ged in repairing the castle brought to ight a num of relica dating from the Stuart period.and these, with auch as were personally collected by Queen Victoria, have been set apart with several attendants to look after them.War mementos are present in large numbers.every campaign of recent years being represented since the Abyssinian war, at curios © sented the Queen with King Theodore's cap and gold seal Subsequentiy Lord Roberts added the scarlet saddle edged with gold and the silver bit captured from the late Améer of Afghanistan, and Lord Kitebener presented the crimson banner of Wad Bishara taken at Firket.The collection of old china was got together by the late Queen and is composed of 10.000 pieces, its value being put at $750,000.Every piece is tabulated in a book kept for the purpose.and against each entry is a record of what the article in question is worth, with brief account of its history.One dessert service alone represents $150,000, it being of Sevres ware of extreme beauty: while a breakfast service given to George III.on his birthday, in 1810, bv his five daughters, whose initials are on every piece, is worth $50,000.Among the furniture is the writing desk given by Henry VIII.to Anpe Boleyn on their wedding day: also an $id Venetian chair used by the Doges and dated 1670.A solid silver table of the same period is another treasure on which the King sets great store.The King's collection of feather cloaks is valued at $50,000.They are compos of gold, black and crimson feathers from the wing» of a now extinct species of parrot, and were given to George 1V.by the King of the Sandwich Islands in 1824.Some of the feathers are so minute as to make each cloak a marvel of ingenuity.Another treasure which at one time be- Jonged to & savage potentate is Tippoo Sa- bib's eagle, taken from his throne at Ser- ingapatam.The bird, nearly life-size, is of so 14 gold: the beak and wmgs are tipped with diamonds.There is also a gold tiger's head from the same source, the eyes of which are of priceless al.Not far away may be found the collection of walking-sticks King a inherited from his mother, numbering 187 in all, apd many of them of great value.One of these, purchased at the Culloden sale in 1807, is carved to represent Wisdom and Folly, $800 having been paid: for it.Another, of black oak.originally belonged to Charles II, while a third is made from the wood of the luckless Alabama, the handle being carved to represent Captain Semmes, the skipper.The Royal library, which now consists of 125,000 volumes, owes its origin to the late Prince Consort, and could not be purchased for $500,000.second collection of 10,000 volumes.for which the King was himself responsible while Prince of Wales, re at Sandringham.In the Windsor ection are many books of priceless value, notably the Mentz Paalter.of which only.one other intact copy exists.Its value is io ne: There are also the MS.of Mozart's first opera and the copy of Shakespeare\u2019s works used by Charles I.Among the pictures are 21,000 engravings after such masters as Raphael.Da Vinci, ete.Not the least interesting feature of the King's private museum is his collection of }d keys which bave been presented to fim at various times when opening publie buildings.To each is attached a concise account of the ceremony with which it was connected, the total value of the collec: tion being placed at $25,000 \u2018A BOY

of Montreal became plain yesterday afternoon.Previously nobody bad quite realized that the business of the season was to be hampered and retarded at the very outset by a fierce dispute between those whose al co-operatipn 13 necessary if prosperity is to be assured.While there were no vessels here to unload.there was, of course.no trouble.but us soon us vessels arrived the situation which it pow stands.Yesterday the stevedores atempted to became acute and that is the stage at ' put non-union men at work.The union met this move by tactics which were fairly peaceful and thorough- lv effective.An appeal to the Mayor for protection, and an admission by the police that they were unable to do the work necessitated the calling out of the militia.These thus summoned to aid the civil power.responded promptly, and in a few hours about a thousand of them were ready for duty.Thev at once took possessing of the wharves, but as night had then fallen ani no work was going on.everything was then peaceful.with what would happen in the mornine.evervhody wondering One shooting affrav, of not very alarming proportions occurred yesterday afternoon and a few arrests were also made for minor causes.A statement regarding the bv Mr.Andrew A.Allan.position taken by shipping men has been issued The Mayor has also given out a statement defining his own position and that of the municipality.SHOOTING OF LAVOIE DONE IN SELF-DEFENCE BY WILLIAM QUINN.The angry disposition which the \u2018longshoremen commenced to evince yesterday morning culminated at a late hour ves- terday afternoon in a street fight in which pne of the belli nts was twice shot in the leg.The dificult in question had its inception shortly after the noon hour.when the strikers attempted, not only to board the Alexandrian, but to throw the ship's tackling into the river.Mr.P.W.Ferns, stevedore in charge of the vessel, warned the strikers to desist, and in order the better to sustäin his demand he drew a revolver which he hrandished in sight of the crowd.That this was mere: piece of heroice, designed to have & pacifying effect on the crowd.is evident from Mr.Ferns' action respecting the revolver when there actually was.suhee- quently, a chance to use it to advantage.In any event the crowd at that time fell away from the side of the vessel and mppeared one by one.Soon all was quiet, and, it being now about four O'clock, Mr.Ferns gave orders that the hatchways should be cloxd and work dis continued for the day.When this had n done, in company with his hrother, Mr.A.\u20ac.Ferns: his brother-inlaw.Mr.William Quinn, and a friend, Mr.Frank Andrian, started up.town.They had not gone far.however, when, on Bern street, a \"longshoreman, named John Tavoie.grasped Quinn hy the throat and attempted to choke him.Releasing himself Quinn stepped hack a few feet and drew a revolver, meanwhile warning Lavoie to discontinue his molestation of those who were disposed to go quietly along the street.Unheedful of these exhortations.Lavoie is said to have renewed hi: assault upon Qiiinn.Backing his victim into an adjoining wall Lavoie continued his choking process.(Ince more gaining his hberty Quinn once again warned Lavoie as to the ser ous consequences which might follow a continuance of his line of conduct.But by this time Lavoie's blona was up and apparently he was not amenable to reason.(Once more he rushed at Quinn who, dodging, thereupon shot his revolver into the street.Even this evidence of the uses to which the weapon might be put did not cool Lavoie.He continued his pursuit of Quinn, who, all this time.had been backing away from his assailant.Nee- ing that these tactics were unavailing, Quinn let Lavnie have thé contents of two of the chambers, one nf the shots taking effect in the leg and another in the thigh, \u2019 The fight then {threatened to hernm: general.Mr.I\u2019.W.Ferns says that when he saw Lavoie had been shot, fearing that if he, too, were set upon he might in a moment of desperation be induced tn use his weapon, be threw his revolver over the adjoining wall.But the crowd set off in ursuit of Quinn, who had run toward otre Dame street, and now sought sanctuary in the carriage factory of J.Mercier, 1440a Notre Dame street, where he waa rescued by the police and escorted to the Central Station.Lavoie was not seriously injured.Indeed, after his wounds had heen dressed, he was able to visit the Central Station, where he lodged a complaint against Quinn of shooting with intent to kill.Early in the evening Quinn was released on bail by Judge Desnoyers.Speaking to a Star reporter.after the fracas, Mr.P.W.Ferns said that he found it difficult \u2018to account for the as sault made upon Quinn by Lavoie.\u201cI think the strikers must have berame en- ed,\u201d said he, \u201cwhen I showed the revolver on board the vessel.Persomlly, I have always been on good terms with the \u2019longshoremen.Al -l asked wag tha: they should leave my tackling alone and not throw it into the river.ey agreed to this and then went away.Î \u2018had\u2019 \u201cpreviously decided pot to do\u2019 any more work during the day.Naturally, therefore, thinking that all was quiet, we started up-town.When we came in sight of the strikers they must have mistaken my brother-in-law for me, because it 18 inconceivable that they should have had any grievance against him.He hes never come in contact with them to extent, and it altogether one of those quiet boys, who never talks.\u201d VICTORIA RIFLES RESPONDED PROMPTLY WHEM SUMMONED.Sharp at

last night.Speeches were made in the French, English, Italian and Hebrew languages.The best of order prevailed throughout.The chair was oc- eupied by the president, Mr.Edmond Cherun, who declared that the burden of remonsibulty \u2018for the great suffer: en- railroad and steamship companies of this city.Their pretensions that there was \u2018nothing to arbitrate\u201d was the only obstacle in the way of a peaceful adjuat- ment.They had absolutely refused to meet the Mayor of the city.and they had positively refused meet a committee from the union,\u201d That a strike would or could take place without anything to arbitrate, he said, is almost be slow work.for a time, but ehortly after | tailed by the eirike rests entirely with the Tyond the imagination.The \u2018longshoremen {ad conducted themselves in a gentlemanly manner since the beginning of the trouble, and the fact that not a member of the association had been arrested supplied the evidence.There bad been no provocation for the calling out of the militia, and any little trouble that had occurred had been engineered and t through by a man in the employ of a Labour Bureau for the purpose of bringing discredit on the members of the union.He declared that the Independent Labour Bureau is allowed to do business in the city without taking out a license.He called attention to the fact that several other labour bureaus had been closed by the authorities because the proprietors had failed to pay the necessary #50 per annum fee.He strongly advised the men to remain quiet and stand firm, and they would win the strike.They were only fighting for their wives and little children, and all they wanted was justice.The men had been treated in a most brutal manner by the stevedores in years that have passed, and the wages that had Leen paid had been very small, and he thought the present proposition to keep back 21-2 cents per hour was a scandalous and a dishonest way of doing business.He COLONEL GORDON, District Officer Commanding.waa convinced in his own mind that the men would be discharged at the eleventh hour, and then, according to the agreement that they had signed, they would lose all that was coming to them.(\u2018ries of \u2018we will never accept it\u201d filled the hall.The other speakers were Messrs.J.A.Rodier, provincial organizer of the International Typographical Union; J.A.Hilton, president ©; .International Brotherhood of Electival Workers: A W.Walshe, mechanical engineer; C.Morach, 4 of the Amalgamated Association of Street Railway Employes, and A.Aube, of the same association, and many others.All the speakers condemned the calling out of the militia, and expressed sympathy for the men, whose lives they said had been made so bitter as a result of hard work and harsh treatment.deel ob oo obo ob robe of ob oe oof cleo se oe be feof ob bof ofp ole oh opeb A NEW YORK STRIKE.New York, April 20.\u2014At a secret meeting of the Engineers\u2019 Protec tive and Benevolent Association last night, the enforcement of the demands recently presented to the owners of the towboats and other steam vessels at this port was decided upon.Unless a settlement is reached the entire commerce in this harbour will be tied up within 48 hours.Final action was decided upon when 38 representatives from kindred organizations in Boston, Phila delphia, and the Sound ports informed Geo.Kolb.business manager of the local association, that the employers are making ready to resist the demands and are engaging non-union marine engineers at those places.Then the proffered arbitration plan was declined and the Jo- cal engineers voted to stand together for aten-hour work day, an increase of 22 per cent.in pay, and recognition of the association.ke | | 3 FORMER CALLS FOR TROOPS.The

) of food and drink, although they know better.But doctors are hu- | man, you know, like the rest of us; but when they get into trouble got out of it, and the \u201cfood route\u201d is a common one among them.A doctor of Laurel, Ind., concluded that coffes and badly selected food were the cause of his stomach trouble and his loss in weight from 184 pounds to 153 pounds, with nerves impaired and general nervous break-down.ca He did not give up coffes at once, but use of Grape-Nuts, and says: \u201cWithin a month I could pee à wonderful change had taken place, due to the use of \\ the new

increased to 174 pounds, my stomach trouble has entirely gone and my mind is clear and vigorous as ever.Wishing you every success, I beg to assure you of my warm appreciation of Grape-Nuts and Postum.\u201d : Name given by Postum In the course of an interview yesterday afternoon Mr.Andrew A.Allan, of the firm of H.& A.Allan, gave a brief but comprehensive outline of the views entertained by the shipping firms in regard to the existing difficulty upon the wharves.\u201cBoth the press and the merchants of Montreal,\u201d said Mr.Allan, \u201cshould do everything in their power to sustain the shipping men in the attitude they hava assumed toward the dispute now in progress between the Stevedores and the \u2018Longshoremen,\u201d said Mr.Allan.\u201cThe present dispute is a crucial one.Upon its result, in a largs measure, will hinge the destiny of this port.A recognition of the Union on the part of the steamship interests would mean the casting of a blight upon the port from wbich it might never recover.; \u201cTwenty years age two hundred vessels might have beeu seen in dock at Quebec.To-day its shipping interests, notwithstanding the magnificent harbour which IL possesses, are oomparatively emall Montreal would be in much the same position in a few years were we Yo recognize the Union.History repeats itself, and the \u2019Longshoremen are a parently determined that the repetition shall come speedily in this instance._ \u201cFor what are the 'Longshoremen striving?It 1s not for money; they already have all that they can reasonably expect to get.No one claims that this strike has heen precipitated for the purpose of obtaining an increase in pay.They want their umon officially recogmized, and that lg the only thing which we are indie: posed to grant.Given that, the control uf \u2018the port passes out of our hands; the | 'loongshoremen at once become the mas- \u2018 ters of the situation.\u201cConsequently the existing strike lacks the very element which has not infrequently made them a success\u2014the element which is calculated to enlist the sympatay of the populace at large.That the steamship companies have treated the men justly\u2014even generously\u2014is seen in the fact that we advanced their compensation over that which obtained last year by twenty: five per cent.Last year the men were in receipt of 20 cents an hour.This year they get 23 cents per hour, with a guar antee of an extra 2} cents for every hour they have worked, provided they remain with us throughout the entire season.\u201d The Militia Act

revetment wall, and sentinals walked on the railway track bevond.The favoured private citizen, who in some occult way, managed to get past the wall, and past the lines of sentries, found more sentries along the wharves, and small detachments of armed men on the various piers.The civizen soldiers looked very businesa- like.and the crowd that had come sightseeing.enjoved itself immensely, watching the different movements of the troops.The breeches in the wall at Jacques Cartier Square, at Bonsecours Market, and near.the new elevator, were carefully guarded by a company of soldiers each, but outside of sentry duty there was little to do.The weather was good, but the dust was trying.and there was just enough wind to make it highly uncomfortable for the soldiers.At times there was some hooting and jeering by the crowds that were assembled.but jt did not amount to very much, although large numbers of small boys had great fun getting as near as possible to the militia lines only to be chased away again and again.There was a feeling of apprehension, however.that something might happen when the mass meeting of the \u2019longshoremen was over, for it was apparent from the wharf, particularly when it became late, that there was great excitement among the two thousand or so of men who were gathered there in the upper part of Bonsecours Market.From the wharf, men could be seen in the hall clinging to rafters and crossbeams, band in frantic approval.The shouts of applause and the roars of admiration could be heard plainly as far as the Custom House.Nothing happened, however, The police had not been entirely withdrawn night, and a few of w.em could be seen walking up and by them- de parentip without the dighbens mapa 8] ently without the sli a - son as to violence from any

SITUATION THREATENS FUTURE OF PORT «But, it is said, that a man might work until] within a few weeks of the close of the season, and, having been discharged owing to lack of work, would thus be precluded from participation in the bonus?\u201d \u201cThere is very little foundation for such an objection,\u201d answered Mr.Allan.\u201cIf a man were laid off merely on account of the absence of labour where with to keep him em- pluyed\u2014that is to say, if he was not discharged for cause\u2014I vould undertake personally to see that he received compensation up to the last cent.And most of the men recognize that they will be treated properly.They know that the money in question remains in our hands\u2014 that it does not pass into the custody of the stevedores\u2014and that, though not necessarily on that account, they are sure of equitable treatment.And it must also be remembered that the advance in wage to which I have alluded was made solely on our own volition; we weré not asked fo grant such a concession.\u201d \u201cDo you think there was any necessity of calling out the militia?\u201d - \u201cMost assuredly I do.\u201d was Mr.Allan's emphatic response.\u201cWhen men in the pursuit of their vocation are dragged forcibly away from their employment, when yet others are brutally set upon and mal- treated\u2014I should think that, then, after the police had signally failed in the performance of their duty, it is high time the military authorities were called upon to maintain order.\u201d \u201cIn your opinion, have the \u2019Longshoremen, as alleged, been subjected to foreign influences!\u201d Mr.Allan shrugged his ahoulders suggestively.\u201cWhat is this man O'Neill here for?\u201d he asked in reply.\u201cWhy are Gompers and his associates coming here on

excitement last night.Jn- mde, perhaps, the bustle was not as great as that of an ordinary drill night, but out: side there was a { commotion.The street xs crowd with excited imdivi- duals, majority of whom were clamouring for admission to the large hall where the Hussars and 65th Regiment were bein equipped for service on the wharves, e wise precaution had been taken of ng sentries at the different doors so tha unless a man had a pass or wore a uniform he was refused admis sion, not only to the quarters of the troops, but to the large hall and brigade office as well.The task of fitting out the Hussars and the Carabiniers was a comparatively easy one.e greatest difficulty to the rapid mobilization of the men arose from the failure of the latter to nd in numbers to the call that had been made u them by the military authorities.Many of the members of the Mont- J] milite are members of labour unions in this city, and it was difficult t> induce such to turn out under the conditions existing last evening.The 85th, out of a total strength of over 380 men, could oaly muster about 100.The Hus sare found it difficult to procure the necessary horses.The Vics.had the largest tarnout, over 250 officers and men re porting themselves for duty.It was about two o'clock yesterday when Col.Gordon, D.O.C., in compliance with the demand of the Mayor, issued the order calling out the troops.It wus a comparatively easy matter to summon the men, but it was quite another matter to t them to the drill hall.Even if re had been sent out into the city NO DUST NO RUST QUICK WORK.STOVE

the armys s.essages bad: to be sent, therefore, to the addresses of the men in the Hussars, Vics, and 65th.The messengers continued ther journey till each man was notified personal y he must turn out for | uty.All this required time, so that t \u2018greater part of the battalion did not reach their respective quarters before 8 o'clock.This was anticipated, for the reason the.men were not needed for duty till well into the night, so as to be ready for any disturbance that may arise this morning.Upon inquiry at the Drill Hall last night, the following figures were given out Each man was supplied with 20 rounds of \u201c\u2018atrike\u2019 cartridges.which are made of softer lead than the service cartridge, though if a man were hit with one of them he probably would not know there was any difference in the material.It was a little after nine o'clock when LIEUT.COL.HAMILTON, Commanding 3rd Victoria Rifles.the Bearer Company and the 65th Rexi- ment left their quarters for the wharves.The former took their ambulance waggon along with them, containing drugs and ap- pliancee for the use of any who might be mnjured.The Prince of Wales Fusiliers and the Royal Scots were on parade last night, the occasion being their weekly battalion drill.Before leaving for the wharf Col.Gordon issued orders to these regiments to remain on duty until they had heard from him at the w .Consequently it was after eleven o'clock before officers and men were diemissed.They were then ordered to report for duty at eight o'clock this morning.At the brigade office all was bustle and activity during the evening.Orders had to be drawn up and type-written for the guidance of the officers, and matters of minor importance had also to be attended \u2018to.During the evening Col.Gordon had several conferences with local commandi officers, with Judge Sicotte and the | adviser of the shippers.The offices were finally closed at nine o'clock for the night.Col.Gordon, 14.-Col.Mackay,

can only say,\u201d said His Worship, \u201cthat I did not take any steps to have the militia called out until circumstances compelled me.The shooting at three o'clock in the afternoon brought the whole business to a climax.couree, we had to wait till something happened and when the shooting commenced I teit that it was time to act; so I at onc& went to Judge Desnoyers, and with Judge Choquet we went closely over e statutes and found that there was no alternative but to comply.with the demands made for more protection.The: shooting made the matter a riotous proceeding, and so a formal uest was made upon Lieut.Col.Gordon, for the aid of the rmlitary.\u201cI may sy that the 'longshovemen do ot n this Lovoie in the matter at all; he may be a sympathizer, bur so far as being a member of the union is concerned, they do not know him at all.\u201d \u201cThere is one thing, however, I 'Longshoremen say they do not ask for more wages; they only want their Union recognised.That word \u2018Union\u2019 is the cause of the whole business, and I do not think it is enough to have a strike for.\u201cI took the trouble to go down to the labour bureau early to-day and told the man in charge that I would like a representative of the stevedores to come and see me.\u2018But no one came to my office.When I met some stevedores in the afternoon I asked them why they did not settle this question, and the reply I got was that they cannot have an interview with the \u2018Il emen without consulting the shipp men; as à consequence I am led to think that the shipping men are behind them.The stevedore is simply the middleman between the \"longshoreman the shipper.\u201cThe shipping men have asked for more protection, and now that |i they have got it we will see whether they are willing to act in a con- cfliatory spirit or not.I do not see why the City of Montreal should be called upon to pay out thousands of dollars for military protection if these people are not willing to

Protective Policy of the American Union.Can Canada repeat this?Jook at the Cotton Mills, Tobacco Factories, Rolling Mills, that were built up in Canada under the National Policy, and we can easily picture what would happen if the Government of Cagada would give to Canadians a Canada-for-Canadians policy, looking first to the securing for Canadians the Canadian consumption, and then a -share of the markets of India, Eng: land, Australia, Japan, Italy, Spain, South Africa, in fact, of the' whole world.AAKAXX THE TRINIDAD RIOTS.The news that H.M.S.Retribution has been ordered from Halifax to Port of Spain, the harbour of Trinidad, reminds us that within the last month there have been rumours of much unrest among the .patives of that comparatively prosperous Pritith West India island of cocoa and asphaltum fame.The real trouble seems to have arisen over the water supply; any one who has seen much of negro life in the \u2018West Indies must have noticed the prodigality and absence of all thought for the future which characterizes the race; it geema content to live from hand to mouth, end with fish and fruits of the earth in such an abundance, where a tropical heat almost negatives the desire for animal food, the incentive to steady toil is lacking.The same habits are responsible for much of the scarcity of native labour in South Africa to-day; there the Kaffire have had three years\u2019 harvest of gain by aiding ~more \u2018or less\u2014British apd Boer, incident- oly looting from both.The enforcement of the new liquor law, which makes it a penal offence to supply a native with spirits, will alm help to retard the return of the native to the labour market until the necessity of finding money for the new head tax\u2014defended by Mr.Chambewain \u2018aa a Jegitimate incentive to labour\u2014compels him to offer his services, at all events for « time.The riot at Trinidsd on March 23.when 250 blue jackets were landed from H.M.B.Pallas and several lives were Jost, occurred during a meeting of the Legislative Coun- \u2014\u2014-qil \u2014 it is a Crown Colony \u2014 to consider the enforcement of an increased water tax made necessary by the introduction of a new and increased supply of water from some distant hills.Formerly the populace wasted the water as Jong as there was any, and, in times of drouth, they had to suffer cansiderably; now they do not understand why a limitation of their water supply and the enfotwement of very stringent regulations as t& waste should involve an increased water tax.Probably there would have been Do actual rioting had not a waggon tried to force its way through the excited throng which surrounded the Court House, the derkey driving shouting, \u2018Make way for the Governor's lunch.\u201d This not unnaturally caused the looting of the van; stone throwing began; eventual ly the building was set on fire, and the Governor and Council only escaped with their lives through the arrival of the armed party from the Pallas.\"+ A committee of enquiry is on its way from England to investigate the circumstances; the trouble is the eternal one of \u201cWho is to pay *\u2019' The works were need: , ed; the water now obtained is likely to \u201c creute a healthier population and will cer tainly secure a more regular supply; in the onsen of water we cannot put up with a feast or a famine.Probably most persons will consider that ipmtend of taxing the negro water user the expense of providing such a necessity shouid be a charge upon the revenue of re than ite neighbours is in a flourishing' condition.Manchester Breaking Up._ Wexford, Ireland, April 20.\u2014The British steamer Manchester arket, from Man.cheter April 24, for Philadelphia, which strended on Sunday on Gipsy Rock, off Tuskar, is now breaking up.ee GIFT CHOOSING It is easy to select a Wedding Gift from our large stock, which oon- taina many Suitable articles, from inexpensive Silver le pieces cotn- chests of Tableware and hend- some.Solid Sgver Tea Services.To-day we give a list of Gifts î from 85 t which range m price 820.\u2018 \u2018No.4713, Cut Glass Celery Dish, $5.00.No.401, Fine Silverplated Fntres Dish, $9.00.No.4001, Genume Wedgwood Selad Bowl and Servers, fine silver-plat- ed mountings, $12.00.| No 3402, Oak Case, containing 12 \u201cpaire dessert knives and forks, pear] handles, fine Sheffield silver pips, \u201c920.00.\u201c1 Any of the above articles sent by \u2018express, prepaid.Sele delivery guar - anteed.\u2014es 15 R.HEMSLEY, LL Yorks.wea masried, ta- SL a Mr.Tarie Argues for Higher Tariff.The following leading editorial wes pub- \u2018| ished in La Patrie last night under an Ottawa date line, conclusive indication that it was written by the Hon.J.Israel Tarte himself : _ \u201cIn 1902 Canada exported to the United States manufactured products to the value of $8,024,373.\u201cCanada imported from the United States manufactured products valued at $60,538,000.\u201cIn other words, we ht from the United States goods worth $63.511,627 more than those of our own which we sold them.\u2018\u2018In other words $63,511,627 of Canadian money was sent to the United States for the purchase of ise, etc.\u201cSixty-three milion dollars; that is a very large sum.\u201cIf we had manufactured in Canada only half of these commodities we would have kept in our own country thirty millions of dollars.\u201cIf, of that thirty milion, we had manufactured at Montreal, at Quehec, at Three Rivers, at St.Hyacinthe, at Ste.Cune- gonde, at St.Henrs, at St.Johns, at Chambly, at St.Jerome, at Terraboyne, exc.fifteen or twenty millions of the merchandise we have box from the foreigner \u2014would not thet have been more to our advantage ?\u201cFive million dollars in Mont- | real, are they not of far more benefit than five million dollars paid to the labourers of the United States ?\u201cFarmers, labourers, merchants, in a word all the inhabitants of Montreal and its suburbs, would they not have profited by the expenditure of five, ten, fifteen million dollars which would have heen made in oun country, our cities, our villages ?\u201cThe reason why we have imported.bought in the United States $63.538,000 worth of merchandise ia that our tanff ia not high enough to prevent American mer chandise entering Canada and taking the place of merchandise which we could make here, with our own hande, to our great advantage and profit, \u2018There is no possible reply to this simple statement of facts, as all our readers are in a position to judge.\u201cIt 1s by grace of this cxcessively low tariff which permits the Americans to seize and carry away our money, that the Minister of Finance, that the Government, has been able to secure a surplus of thirteen and a half millions.\u201cEvery, article produced in a foreign country, and included in the tanff regulations, can only enter Canada upon the payment of a customs duty.\u201cThe average of these duties paid last gear upon taxable imports was 5 per cent.1 round numbers.\u201cIt is the consumers of Canada, the population.of our country who have paid this import of 25 per cent., and who, in consequence, have made the surplus of thirteen and a half millions, which the Minister of Finance has announced.\u201cThere is no tax more direct than this.We pay it every day.\u201cWe could avoid it if we were manufacturing ourselves a much larger quantity of the commodities we need.\u201cWe are occupying at this moment the attitude of the proprietor of a fertile farm who, in place of cultivating it, croased his arms and bought of his neighbour those products which he could have raised in his own field \u201cBy raising the tariff, we would bring in millions and millions of new capital.\u201cWe would give to the working classes more work and better pay.\u201cWe would give our farmers a larger and better market.= \u201cWe would give our commerce more activity, more scope, more benefits.\u201cWe would increase our population and also oyr prosperity.;

that the p .pries of wholesale, and practically the same price retajl, is affecting the consumption to a good and the labouringftlasses are complaining: that many\u201d = ceased handling cheese, as there are ne profits in it; that we cannot expect a continuance of the present state of things and we must, therefore, get back again to moderate prices as soon as possible; that when Englishmen go off buying one line of go they do not go k very quickly to it.Do not let us forget that Canada produced some 260,000 packagés of butter more than usual in 1902, and that if the milk which produced his extra quantity of butter had been turned into cheese we should have produced about 400,000 additional cheese.This extra quantity would have served to keep the price down to, say, 8 cents per pound or less, and we should not have had the present extraordinary condition of small stocks.Will the butter-makers who are deter- miped to turn to cheese-making on ald- cotht of the high prices now ruling, look at these facts and think twice before they turn aside from butter-making.- There is now in progress an unusual large make of English and Scotch cheese.BUTTER.I regret to say that Canadian butter has not a very pleasant aroma in the nostrils of the British mercham at the present time.Such parcels as have been kept over are now offering at from 10s to 128 under New Zealand, and 15 tq 208 under Danish.\u2018There is vast room for improvement somewhere, and the great question is where?Our,Canadian butter has not the style and appearance of butter from other countries.The parchment is put on in a slovenly way, and the butter is not properly boxed.There are too many small creameries, and there is a lack of uniformity in the make.All the papers contain something about Canada almost daily.Questions are asked about all sorts of things and conditions.Canada is to the fore; never was there such an opportunity to introduce Canadian butter and give it a foremost place alongside our cheese.Canadian butter has no identity of {ts own at present, or If it has, it is either unpleasant or splendidly isolated.The public do nat know of it, and don't talk about it.We must tempt them with quality and at a very moderate price for some time.as it is necessary to displace continental butter.which arrives fresh weekly.Con] transportation has been very faulty.especially on the part of the steamship companies.Buttar comes from Australla and New Zealand, as well us from Argentine, at a temperature of 15 degrees, whilst heretofore 30 to 40 degrees has been thought good enough for Ce- nadian butter.Unfortunately, most peo ple on this side are under the impression that butter ought to be brought from Canada at the same temperature &s from Denmark: this is all wrong, and 1 have been trying.as far as possible tq impress upon the importers here tha £a nadian butter must be carried at as low a temperature as that from New Zealand.The general tendency here is to use Jess salt.rather under 2 per cent.I should say nearly 1 per cent.(with a small quantity of preservative).except in 70-1b.tubs, when 334 per cent.of salt is required.Perhaps the greatest fault with the quality of our Canadian butter is in the washing of it in the chyrns.It should always be washed in & brîne -and made as dry as possible befo being salted; otherwise too much moisture Is left in the butter.and too mdeh salt washed out.the result being that the duty ter comes irregularly salted and unsatisfactory.For this reason.our butter hes not the waxiness and dryness (viE., freedom from | moisture) that the Australian, New Zeal-J and and Argentine has, and, therefore, does not keep and suit as well Yours faithfully, A.A.AYER.2 MEETINGS AND SOCIETIES.BRICKLA YBRS .\u2014There will be a great rheeting of the International Brotherhood of Bricklmyers to-morrow night, at the St.Joseph's Hall for the purpose of taking part in the labour demonstration.The men will march in a body to the Queen's Hotel with their own brass band and will be in full regalia.All the members have been instructed to turn out.CIGARMAKERS\u2019 RECEPTION.\u2014 The International Cigarmakers* Union are making elaborate preparations for the reception which they are going to tender Mr.Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labour, on Fri day evening in Poire Hall, the old Theatre Delville.Mr.Gompers has been connected with the International Cigarmak- ers\u2019 Union for a great many years.- STONECUTTERS REPORT.\u2014 There will] be a mass meeting of the Btonecut- ters\u2019 Union to-night in St.Joseph's Hall to receive the report of the special committee that had appointed to interview the employ last Monday.The officials say that this will be a very ime portant gathering, and every meinber has been instructed to attend.After the special business has been disposed of, arrangements will be made for\u2019 the big street parade to-morrow night.RUBBER WORKERS.\u2014At a largely attended meeting of the rubber workers® section, United Garment Workers of America, ast night, it was decided to take part in the.demonstration to welcome the labour leaders on Thu evening.Bro.Saunders, label secretary for the Montreal district, reported that a certain manufacturer was inf the union label of U.G W.of A.and, though the matter has been laid before the head office, he had small hapea of anything definite deing done until the bill now before the Dominion Parliament was pamsed.It was decided to request the Montreal Trades and Labour Council to send a deputation to Ottawa to urge the passing of the bill.rt .KNOWLTON HOMB.\u2014A party of boys and girls are expected to arrive at the Distributing Home, Knowlton, \"the 15th of May.Applications ate solicited for boys and girly ten yéars and under, enct minister\u2019 and osing .ou railway fare.Such applications should to Mrs.L.Birt, Knowlton, IETHER Que SE .3 = \u2019 I Probabilities for the next twenty-four hours, specially predicted for the Montreal Star ath am.to des: Freuh west to north w ;

- Mr.Bleke took no active part in the x interjected a word , but he i en.\u201cWe don\u2019t object to any amount of evi- dénce liké this,\u201d be said onee.#1 don\u2019t think it would make any difference if Jou did object,\u201d retorted Mr.Rid- dell with asperity.The men from Magitoulin had the stand 40 themselves at vesterday afternoon\u2019s ses- ston of the Gamey-Stratton investigation.They came fo in large numbers to say that they had Wnderstood R.R.Gamey would support the Government, whatever it was, in all good measures, 6r in all meas now ures affecting the development of New Ontario and Manitoulin.The ution eertamly Jost nothing by the bulk of the evidence ced, and consider that they scorèd @ point in the croes-examination of last witpess, Mr.Brooks, to whom \u2018Mr.Gamey stated that he expected, by his influence in the Jobby, with the other members, to achieve much for the good of the county.The apprecifition of the Islanders of secure their rights was alec an interesting portion of the evidence.Several of the witnesses attributed the lack of needed vements in the development of the comnêy to the fact that previous member, Mr.A.F.Campbell, was a sup porter of the Opposition.If they hed sent in a Reform member they would have secured their due.Mr.Robert Thorburn, of Gore Bay, was ctoss-examimed by Mr.C.H.Ritchie.K.C., after the adjournment.He had told negotiations between Mr.Gamey and i for the purchase of a house and lot in the town of Gore Bay.Q\u2014When did the negotiations be tween yourself and Mr.Gamey first commence\u2019 A \u2014Away back in May or June.Q.\u2014Same time about the time of his election?A.\u2014That is about the time.Q.\u2014So that apparently he contemplated sation with him shortly after the publication of what is known as the Glabe interview?A\u2014I did.: Q.\u2014will you ten us again po the conversation and what - and Mr.Gamey?A\u2014We met v, in front of the Pacific Hotel, and after Jpaming the time of day Mr.Ga said, \u201cAbout this place of yours, 1 woul like very much to tve it, but I don\u2019t think my Conservative friends will allow me w live here.A GORE BAY FARMER.Neil Maclean, farmer, of Gore Bay, told of an interview with R.R.Gamey at\u2019the Ocean House, Gare Bay, shortly after the Globe interview.He met Mr.Gamey and went to see him about getting some maney.- La Q\u2014 What did you say to that?T saïd that if I was in his place I would resign Q.\u2014Just tell us what wee said, if you please?A \u2014I ssid that I underatbod from that I bea/d of the meeting that d in his own section that he was p\u2014 \u2018 Q\u2014What did he say to that?A.\u2014Well, be said, \u201cI tried to give that impression all th the campaign.\u201d Q.\u2014Did you ask him for it.A \u2014Yes.mises did Rosa?A\u2014He saia he a a , OF some money but the way his friends were using him now if he had to resign he would have to pull up stakes and get out of the country, and in timt case he would need all the money he bad.Daniel B.Macraee, lumberman, of Gore y.told of attending a meeting at y, about a week before voting day.In May last.and bearing Mr.Gamey speak.The cross-examination brought but about the same things as in the other cases.The witness knew that Mr.Gamey was a Conservative and running in the Conservative in .A farmer, of the township of Mills, had \u2018 two mestings, one Long Bay.and the other at Poplar.gave similar evidence.QUOTED BURKE TO GAMEY.John White was called and affirmed, instead of taking the oath.Examined by Mr.Riddell, the witaess id that he was x barber, living at Gore thé manner in which they must vote to moving into Gore Bay?A.\u2014Yes.Q.\u2014Then you tell me you had a conver- its servetive and one a Liberal.y was sm broadly, and the barber asked him what he was smiling about.Mr.Gamey did not answer him just then, but | after the other customer had gone he asked bim how he liked the political situation, Witness understood that Mr.Gamey meant by this the interview in the Globe vespecting his turnover to support the Government.- Witnese\u2014I said 1 didn\u2019t believe that the district interests should be superior to the provincial interests.I thought they should be subordinate to the provincial interests.J quoted Burke's words: \u201cNot local purposes, not local prejudices, but the general good.\u201d Dr.Leonard W.Hogan, sworn, and examined by Mr.Riddell, K.C.Q.\u2014Dr.Hogan, where do you live?A.\u2014T live in Gore Bay.I! know Dr.Fell and Mr.Gamey.1 ovérheard a conve between these two just after the interview in \u2018the Globe.Dr.Fell had been a candidate at one time I umderstand.I overheard this interview just beneath the window of our office.Dr.Fell is a Conservative.I can\u2019t just remember the words of the conversation;
