A Plan Practically Approved of by the Civio .- Committee.A MILLION AND A HALF Is the Estimated Cost But to Extend the Elevated Tracks to the Bridge Would Cost Twice as Much.\u2014 À At last a plan for the elevation of the level crossings, from the Bonaventure station to the city limits, has informally been roved of by the civic Level Crosaing Committee.The plan will cost.a million and a half; but, in case of it being desired that the tracks should be raised on from the city limite to the yard of the G.T.R., at Point St.Charles, the scheme would cost three and a half millions.The million and à half scheme would not effect the raising of the station yard ut naventure station nor the building of the freight sheds, near the station, to way higher level.If the yard and sheds \u2018had to be raised a couple of million more would have to Le added; and this cWkt was considered, at the meeting of the Level Crossing° Committee yesterday afternoon, to be op irely out of the question.Mz.Wm.Wainwright, assistant manager of the G.T.R.with Mr, Hobson, cugi- neer, represented the company.The al dermen present were Ald.Neder, La- porte, Faucher, Smith and Roby.Mr.St.corge, City Surveyor, and Mr.Howard, cugineer of the Road Department, were duto present.: .THE PLANS PRODUCED.Mr.Hobson produced a plan which be said the G.T.R.would favour.It show- «d the tricks clevated from the neigh.bLourhood of Mountzin street to the city mits.The scheme, however, was to have an incline track, running on the level, from Lusignan street: this would be a single track and was 10 enable the company to shunt ireight coarn* down as for as the freight sheds.Tins track would pot be used for passenger service and would ohly be used nt certain hours.In order for this line not tobe of inconvenience to the public it was proposed to close up Aque- ÿnet and Versailles streets, In consequence of these streets being closed it night be necessary for the company, to acquire cerinin propertigs fronting on the Preseni tracks.The contention - was that there would be ne inconvenience in having these twe -strects cloged as there would be an arrangement st vchicles could pass along near the raised tracks to streets ou cither side of Agucduet and Versailles etrcets, and thus cross under the tracks.It was only by the closing of these streets, ard not raisins the freight sheds.ete.that the elevation of the tracks could be done for @ million and a hall.ALD.RABY NOT SATISFIED.Ald.Raby was not satisfied with this arrangement: he contended the city would have to pay damages for depreciating the value of property if the strects were closed: private interests could not be hurt in such manner.=\" AA.Smith =\" The general good has to he considered Ald.Raby.Wo shall never raise the tracks without dissaliniving some one.We must take # broad and business-Hké view of this project.\u201d Abl Lavorte\u2014*If any damages are suf- fread the city will, of course.do what 1s right; at might be possible the G.T.R.would consent to buving proverty that fronted on the tracks, and =o please all parties.Me.Wainwright ~The vroject 13 one that the company would certainly give consideration to.\u201d | Ald.Laporte\u2014\"] am sure that by the elevating of the tracks, business on Notre Thame street, west, would be greatly improved.What with the canal on one side où Notre Dame street, an ! with the railway tracks en the other side, property values have fallen in a way that would nat be hejieved.The city is not getting half the taxes it formerly did from this section of the street.Bv all means let us have the tracks raised.\u201d Mr.St.George\u2014\" Only a very would be able to claim damages.ALD.TURNER ANXIOUS, At this point Ald.Turner anxiously asked what the committee contemplated doing.as regards abolishing level crossings in St.Ga- brie) Ward; the G.T.R.tracks ran through this ward in order to reach Victoria Bridge.He thought the entire tracks of the com: papy should he eleyatéd to the freight yards at Point St.Charles.A plan was now produced showing that to elexate the tracks as desired by Ald, Tw ner an additional two million would have to be spent.lt was Ald.Sadler's contention that the city had not the means to take up such .an enormous job.Ald.Turner\u2014\u201cThen build two or three subways in St.Gabriel Ward in order tol prevent accidents.\u201d There was quite a discussion about the matter and finally it was decided to ascer- tein whal two or three subways would cost.Mr.Waihwright informed the committee that General -Manager Hays wished him to say that the company was in carnest about elevating the tracks, and euch being the case he hoped the committee would allow the company to begin, at once, constructing a mew f{reight shed near Albert street.Some of the aldermen voiced the fear that if this permission was granted the company might lose its zeal about elevating the tracks.Mr.Wainwright-\"You have ho need to ew persons \u201d 0 .v That Ne A \u201cver R À | as may be arranged _ os have such fear; the company will do what is busincas-like and honourable.Laporte\u2014\"Coull not the company bring all its freight.to Point St.Charles, and do away with the freight sheds near Chamboillez square?\u201d Mr.Wainwright\u2014\"No, we could never do this; business men would never consent to oing to the Point for every pound of reight they needed.Then the cost of cartage from the Point would be enormously increased,\u201d After some further discussion it was decided that, so far as the committec was concerned, it would approve of the plan produced, for the elevation of the tracks, with the incline to the station.Before any formal approval was given, of course, far more details would have to be gone into; the company would have to say what it would give towards tho improvement; pro- priotors would have to be seen about the scheme and Council would have to accept it.It was also decided that the company should make a formal regyiest, to the Road Committee, as to the erection of the new freight shed.After the Roads had reported the Level Crossings Committee would try and promptly decide the matter.Just before the meeting adjourned Mr.Wainwright said he was not in a position to say what portion of fhe cost of the elevating scheme the company would bear.Mr.Hays would answer this question.THE STARS NEW SERIAL.On Saturday next, October 13, the STAR will, by special arrangement, begin the publication of the latést serial novel from the pen of Mrs.C.N.Williamson, the talented English authoress.«His Grace?\u201d is a worthy successor of the other novels which have made Mrs.Willlamson\u2019s name known wherever the English language is read.The plot\u2014which possesses an interest local to Mont- real\u2014is exciting and as enjoyable as it is clever in conception.¢The Bookman,\u201d an authority upon such matters, says of the author of \u201cHis Grace\u201d\u201d :\u2014 \u201cMrs.Williamson has an effective fashion of holding back the climax to the last and supreme moment, and of gratifying her readers with an unexpected thrill just when the nerves are at the highest tension.Yet she uses an admirable restraint and never becomes hysterical.Her taste is excellent.\u201d 0 M\u2019GILL CORPORATION Enabled to Inaugurate a System of \"Travelling Libraries.1,026 IN THE VARIOUS | \u201cFACULTIES.The most important announcement made at yesterday's meeting of the Corporation of MeG:ll Univer=ty was to the effect that, through the liberality of the late Mr.Hugh McLennan, a system of travelling libraries in connection with the College would be established forthwith.Under this eystem cases of 25 booss will be sent out to individuals, schools, clubs, or essociate libraries, to be kept for a reasonable length of time and then returned, to be replaced Ly others.In each box of books tem large reproductions of good pictures or photographs of beautiful ecenery wil} be included.Mr.C.H.Gault.university libru- rian, is in charge of the scheme, which will be put into opcration as soon as the necessary arrangements can be made.The number of students attending the University was stated by Mr.Vaughan to be 1028, divided as follows among the different faculties: Arts, 238;

If there are two Machines, smash them both ! ! Imperial Reciprocity in Preferen- dal Trade would make Canada rich.THE MAGIC WAND./ You know the Government has a magic wand with which it can take money out of your pockets without being: aware of it, but you pay all the same\u2014Sir Wilfrid Laurier at Acton- vale, October 9, 1900.In some strange way the Premier of Canada seems to have forgotten himself for ons moment at Actonvale and to have ima- gincd that he was again plain Mr.Laurier, leader of the Opposition, denouncing the extravagance of a Conservative administra In fact he was speaking of the Conservative administration when be made use of the words quoted above.Mr.Tarte assures the electors that the Laurier Government have spent much be- says, tion.and \u201cWait \u2018til] you see us next year.\u201d Expressed in a great variety of we;s that is the excuse of all the Liberal leaders for the extravagant expenditure of the Government.They do not use the exact words of Mr.Tarte, but they have accepted his explaination as the best that can be made.They cannot depy that the expenditure has enormously increased under Liberal rule; they cannot deny that in 1896, when the total expenditure of the Conservative Go ernment war only $41,702,333, they told the ele.ors that they would greatly decrease the expenditure.They cannot deny that instead of decreasing it they have increased it every year they have been in office and that it reached $52,713,810 for the fiscal year ending June 30.190° that according to Mr.Ficlding's own esti They cannot deny mates the total expenditure will be still greater for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1801.if They cxcuse themselves by saying that the revenue has increased even more than the expenditure, But where does the revenue come from?Sir Wilfrid Laurier explains: \u201cThe Government has & magic wand with which it can take money out of your pockets without being aware of it, but you pay all the same.\u201d : The Great Prestidigitator, smilingly, waving his magic wand, extracts the money from the people\u2019s pockets and Mr.Tarte standing by looks at the gold and gleefully says: \u201cSee all the money we have made.Come Jet us spend it.\u201d \\ There is more revenue because the people are paying higher prizes for everything they import than they did in 1808 Moet of the duties are ad valorem and when the price of the article goes up the duty goes up with it.The average rate per cent.is slightly lower than it was under Conserve- tive rule, hut the prices being much higher under the ad valorem system the duties collected are greater.Under a system of specific duties the amount of duty collected is always the same whether the price goes up or down.Meany protectionists believe that: this is the most effective system, and it has been largely adopted in the United States.American manufactorers have generally favoured wpecific_duties on the ground that under a system of ad valorem duties in a period of depression when foreign » cin be imported sb low prices the tar comes dows, of \u201cleast protection the time when protection is most needed, + + the Liberals remain in office.\u2018whereas specific duties, remaining always the same, give adequate protection in =» time of depression, and in a period of high prices, when the people must ray more for everything they buy, there Gre' 20 additional taxes to still further enhance the -cost.They point.out that there are « great many people with fixed incomes that do not increase in a time of worldwide prosperity and they contend that it is particularly hard on them to have to pay higher taxes just at the time when prices are high.We do not wish to blame the Govern: ment for adopting the ad valorem system of duties.It was largely the system used by the Conservatives, although in a pum- ber of cases the Liberals changed specific duties to sd valorem duties.We merely wish to emphasize the fact that while the average rate per cent.is slightly lower under the Liberal tariff than under the Conservative tariff, the actual duties ol- Jected are actually greater because, the prices of everything imported having increased, the duties have increased with the prices under the ad valorem system.It is easy to see how the magic wand works, and the question arises if the extra revenue comes out of the pockets of the people should it not be used in the interest of the people?We think the majority of the electors will agree that it should be used to reduce the public debt, set azide to-be used in a time of world: wide depression when revenues decrease, or expended upon great public enterprises such as the establishment of a National System of Cold Storage and Fast Trane- portation, which would benefit every line of business in Canada, because it would put money into the pockets of the farmers and fishermen by enabling them to place their products in prime condition on the most profitable markets of the world, and, making the farmers richer, would them to make larger purchases from business men in every branch of trade.cause THE VICTORIA BRIDGE TOLLS.The devil was sick The devil a monk would be.That is to say,-the Government being frightened to death at the approach of polling day has had considerable reductions made ip the Victoria Bridge tolls.This is an admission that ever since the bridge was opened, the Government has permitted the Grand Trunk to extort most unreasonable and oppressive tolls from the farmers of the south shore who are under the necessity of constantly using the bridge.Within one month of a general election, the Government decides that it needs the farmers\u2019 votes even more than its friends of the Grand Trunk need the farmers\u2019 money.Before the Lau rier-Tarte Government voted half a \u2018million dollars of the people's money as a little present to the Grand Trunk the farmers were told that the bridge would be free from tolls, as it ought to be.ONE GREAT ISSUE.The ecomomical use of the resources of the country is something the people have a right to expect from those they entrust with the administration of public affaire, and proved extravagance im 3 government: is a matter worthy of serious consideration of the electors, whether such subjects make entertaining reading or not.Far more important, however, is it that the people should demand a substantial re demption of pledges from all public men.Under our system of government we have this safe-guard, that where a party in power pursue a policy we consider against our interest we replace them with another party whose platform we deem more worthy our support.Good faith is an absolute essential if responsible government is to be continued.lt were a mere waste of effort to put a party in power if they are at liberty to keep or violate their pledges as they ree fit.There may come up some changed condition of affairs which would warrant a gev- ernment abandoning a position they had taken before they were elected, but the public are entitled to \u2018the fullest conidence of those in power as to the causes which led to the change; and if the departure from the former position be a very important one it might even be fairly claimed that the government should ask for a dissolution of the House and seek approval of their course from the people before the proposed change came into effect.To have a party after they get into power abandon their position on every es sential point of public policy, without any explanation, without any reason other than party expediency, can only be regarded as a public outrage.To permit it to go unpunished would en danger the institutions we regard as the safeguard of our liberties, cast doubt upon the honour of the pation.In ordinary business life the man whose word could not be relied upon would find himself without Bredit, without commercial | standing, without\u2019 any\u2018chance \u2018of holding position among honest business men.In social life he who holds slightly his pledged word must bear the consequences, with loss of standing, loss of friends, Joss of all the rewards honesty and sincerity are entitled to at the bands of society.Whea we allow one code to prevail for publie men and another for private life, we are travelling very near the danger line.Not only aeéntitnental, but sound busineæ considerations\u2014if there can be sound busi- nese considerations aside from true and honest eentiment\u2014demand that we striotly exact from those we put in power a fulfil ment of their promises $5 the publis as we would hold individually responsible for any pledges they had made to us in private life.- \u201cIn the coming election it is not only a politica] party, a government which is on trial before the court of public opinion in Oanada, but it is the people of Canada who are on trial before the world.It is no time for any upright and hynour- able man to hold himself aloof from the strife of elections and assume that all parties are alike and honeety in public life is not worth looking for.We have certain responsibilities as citizens,and among them is to do our utmost to keep public life pure.That can only be done by turning out those who have flagrantly deceived the people and violated every important pledge they made during eighteen yeers.Bhould those incidentally put into power, in turning the objectionable ones out, prove false to their promises let them in turn be driven out, and in time it will be learned that the people of Canada are not to be fooled so easily.There was a whole volume of meaning in the words of the late Hon.Mr.Marchand addressed to his constituents, in the letter he wrote to them on his death bed: \u201cI have never understood that a promise given to an assemblage was less binding on honour and conscience than an engagement undertaken toward aan individual.\u201d WOULD YOU HAVE SUPPORTED } THIS P {Toronto Mail and Empire.) Suppose that in 1896 Laurier had made a speech like this to the electorate, would you have voted for his candidates: \u201cGentlemen,\u2014We propose to make great reforms.Your taxes are too light; we shall increase them by $12,500,000.\u201cThe Tupper Government have spent but $40,730,863 this year; we shall gradually add to the expenditures until they reach $51,542,635 in 1809.The debt is altogether too email ; shall add $8,000,000 to it.\u201cWe have too many markets: we shall refuse a preference in the British market; we shall give the Yankees all they want in our market so that their tariff against us we may be kept up, and we shall induce the | Germans to put a discriminating tariff upon Canadian products, that the United States may have that market exclusively.\u201cYou are paying far too little for your coal oil;*we shall sell out our oil industry to the Standard oil monopoly, and will thus reise the price by from aix to teu cents a gallon.\u201cThe idea of standing by Great Britain in periods of crisis is absurd: if trouble arises, and the Empire is threatened, we shall refuse to belp in Imperial defence uni] we are forced to act, and.if we do act, we shall notify the Queen not to look upon our action as a precedent.\u201cThe Tories gave too little to railway corporations; we shall double the bonuses, and shall subsidize parallel lines all over the country.\u201cToo small are the amounts paid for ublic works; we shall introduce \u2018go-be- Pweens\u2019 to take contracts and pocket the difference between the amount the contractor charges and the larger amount that we shal.pay.\u201cThe elections give too much anziety to the people; we shall see that the ballot boxes are duly stnff+4, thus relieving you of the necessity of forming a judgment on public affairs.\u201cOur friends have been long out in the cold; we shall warm them with le, ac- co! to their deserts; the Toronto Globe shall ted a coal mine it does mot earn, and faithful politicians shall make money, sven out of the food of our -sold- iers.If this had been the announced gramme, would you have supported it?MR.GIBSON PROMOTED.OTTAWA, October 11.\u2014Mr.T.W.Gibson has been promoted to the position of dircetor of the Bureau of Mines, made vacant by the resignation of Mr.Archibald Blue.Mr.J.JJ.Murphy takes the position of chief clerk of ssles and free grants, made vacant by the resignation of Mr.Alex.Kirkwood.pro- potest ob / - THIS EVENING ACADEMY OF MUSIC \u2014 \u201cThe Si of the Cross.\u201d HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE \u2014 Grose's London Stock Company, in \u2018\u201cThe Wife.\u201d THEATRE ROYAL \u2014 \u201cThe Three Musketeers.\u201d FRENCH BAPTIST CHURCH \u2014 Grand Ligne Mission Meeting.KARN HALL\u2014Miss La Palme's Concert.YOUNG CONSERVATIVES ANNUAL MEETING, 132 St.James street.| CLUB OUVRIER CONSERVATEUR, 1478 St.Catherine street.JUNIOK BAR ASSOCIATION\u2014 at Laval University.THANKSGIVING FOR PEACE \u2014 Musical Service at the Church of the Advent, Westmount., opfectectech lech chop freee doch decor leb dob bol ded ob feof of focfoefecforfedr opel eee deeb kobe doo feet | \\ Tailor-made gown of heliotrope doth, trim- 6, \u2018 A \\ i & HEN SRE \\ AA wed with a ditker shade of velvet.PERSONALS.Mrs.J.8.MacDonald is at present visiting here from Cornwall, Mr.W.E.Whitehead, of Torontc, is in town for a fow days.- Mrs.H.Fitzgibbon has been In Ottawa for the last few days.Mr.Arthur Congdon is at present visiting here from Winnipeg.Mrs.W.A.Reld, of Brockville, Is in the city on a visit to friends.Mr.Gordon Osler, of Toronto, spent a few days in town this week, Mrs.Claud Robbin, \u201cThe Marlborough,\u201d 1s visiting friends np Quebec.Mrs.Penhallow, wife af Professor Pen- hallow, has returned for the autumn.Miss Ethel Macarthy, of Ottawa, is the guest of Miss Winifred Ilagar, Mountain street.Mrs.R.W.Macdougall, 178 University street, has returned from a short stay in Toronto.Miss Minnie 8haw, who has arrived from Quebec, Intends to spend the winter in Montreal.\\ Mrs.Harry Oswald gave a tea list Tuesday in honour of her guest, Miss Pacaud, of Quebec.Mr.Wm.Craig, accompanied by Mrs.Cralg, has arrived in town on a visit from Truro, N.S.Mrs.Cross, Pine avenue, who has been seriously {ll for some weeks, 18 now very much better.Mr.A.A.Ayer and family have closed their country residence at Dorv and returned to town.Mrs.Killam, ing here from Winnipeg, Mrs.Jas.Cooper.Mrs.H.H.Ransom left last evening.on a visit to her relatives in Cleveland, Ohlo, and Louisville, Ky.Miss J mer in the nelg¥bourhood of Boston.has returned to town.;

over the road.Incidentally, not many raroads have that many miles-for their presidents to gaunt over, Yet cight thousand miles is the distance that Mr.T.G.Shaughnessy.president of the Canadian Pacific Railway, had com pleted when he returned to Montreal this morning from his three weeks\" absence in the west.And Mr.Shaughnessy dist other things than travel.He wapectad the ral road, visited the compimy\u2019s smelting plants in the Kootenay, had a lovk at the rolling stock and the progress on the branch hnas, listened to deputations, made occasional addresses and caught much more than a pasting glimpse at the general condition of the great stretch of country through which be was whirled in his rupid but observant journey.-\u2014 Mr.Shaughnessy-was accompanied in his trip by Messrs.R.B.Angus, and P.A.Peterson, of Montreal, and E.Osler, W.B.Andrews and A.R.Credtman, of Toronto.The three latter returned from North Bay to \u2018Foronto, while the ot Shaughnessy to Mont: came

the province capital and men, and prosperous towns were growing into still more prosperous cities.It was a natural sequence to the rich discoveries of minerals which had been made, and which were still being made \u2018n all ,parts of that section of the country.\u201cOur smelters in British Columbia\u201d sud Mr.Shaughnessy, \u201care being worked to their fullest capacity, and are being enlace ed and added to meet the demands upon them, The Grand Forks smelter is now bandling 300 tons of ore daily.and within sixty dave will have been enlarged tn double its present capacity.The smclter at Trail is being similarly enlarged.At Greenwood the smelter recently begun will be shortly ompleted and in operation, and will then be able to treat 300 tons a day.fe dre also building a piritic smelter at Boundary Falls for the treatment of the low grade ore.\u2019 Regarding the grain crop in the Canadian west, Mr.Shaughnessy said that the summer's drought had not injured the growth as mueh as had been feared.but the heavy rains during the harvest had done some barm.These rains had now.however, ceas ed, so that the balance of the crop would be baryested without the loss which had attendes the earlier cutting.Mr.Shaughnessy was asked whether the Canadian Pacific carnings were likely to suffer @ a result of the smaller grain crop, end replied that such would necessarily be to som?extent the case.\u201cHowever,\u201d he added, \u201cour carnings will not by'any means show ac large a relative falling pff as the volume of the grain trans portatibn business will be smaller which shows that we are acquiring a considerable genera, freight traffic apart from the grain.Mr.Shaugbnessy said thet the C.P.R.was seadily building additional branch lines pr spurs, from their main lines into the muing country.In this company was followng a policy which was altogether uni- gue i railroad amnmals.Tonitke other rail- roadssimilarly situated, the Canadian Paci fic hd asked no

MeCul- lough on the subject.\u2018The bank inspector sent for him, and asked for an explanation.McCullough admitted having drawn the bills of exchange and notes.and attached to them the warchouse receipts under dis cussion.He had trusted MecGillis, he said, and did riot know much about the matter.When Mr.Stewart tried to find oui what.had become of the money, he got very little vatisfaction from McCullough, who afirm- \u201ced that he had derived no benefit from the money thus obtained.Under pre-sure, however, McCullough told the bank in=pector that Metillis had probably received the money.Another interview took place a week later when McCullough told Mr.Stewart that MeGillis had got the money, although it had gone to his (McCullough\u2019s) credit.He had trusted McGillis, he said, to make out the warehouse receipts and to negotiate them.He had pot verified them.In the meantime the bank had made an investigation and discovered that there was only about $800 or $900 worth of produce in the warchouse as security and they were told that even that did not belong to them.MR.PEASE INVESTIGATES.When the general manager of the bank, Mr.Pease, who was away at the time the frands were committed, returned, he sent for McCullough and asked for an explanation.Mr.Stewart yesterday graphically \u2018old what passed at\u2019 this interview \u201cI heard McCullough,\u201d said he, \u201cadmit to Mr.Pease, in the presence of Chisholm and myself, in the general manager's office it the bank, in April or May, that he had senefited to the extent of about $50,000.\u201cI AM THE GUILTY PARTY.\u201d With regard to McGillis, Mr.Stewart said that he (McGillis) had made the foi- lowing statement In the presence of Mr.Victor Mitchell: \u201c1 am the guilty party throughout this whole affair.\u201d ; McGillis had also declared that MeCnl- Jough was a particpant.He said that Me- \u201c\u2018Cüflough had got the most of the money, but be (Meiillis) had got none.MeGillis then told the bank inspector of how the fraude started.They hegan in a emall way about a year and a half ago, when McCullough abstracted some goods which the Dairy Company had in storage with the storage company without the knowledge of the officers of the Montreal Cold Storage and Freezing Com- Janv.! McCullough had told McGillis of what had heen done, but McGillis had Jacked the moral courage to report the occurrence.Further abstractions went on from time to time and afterwards his (McGillis) fall was rapid.Among the legal gentlemen present at uete yesterday were Mr.J.P.Cqoke, J.\u2018rown Prosecutor, and Mr.R.D.McGibbon, Q.C.representing the Merchants Bank of Halifax; Mr.Donald Mac- master,

deposed that, the bank did business with the Croil & Cul- lough Dairy Company, such as the purchase of bills of \u2018exchange on English houses, an the discounting of notes on the security of warehouse receipts issued by the Montreal Cold Storage and Freezing Company.They had about $220,000 worth of these reeeipts.They had cashed bills of exchange for Chisholm, drawn by A.D.MeGillis, on English houses, and the proceeds had been placed to Chisholm'e credit.These transactions would amount to about $60,000.identified two notes, one for $12,700, and the other 88,150, which had been

message to our local manager, Mr.Brock, he requested him Lo ee and see him.1 accompanied Mr.Brock, Mr.Chisholm stated that he had to inform us the goods which we thought we held against these warehouse receipts were not in the warehouse; that they had been surreptitiously removed by Mr.McGillis, an ofhcer of the Cold Storage Company, and that it had been done with the connivance of the Croil & McCullough Dairy Company.He said the total amount we had was practically worthless\u2014the $22,000, and what we held for himself.INTERVIEWED McCULLOUGH.\u201cAfter getting this information, I bad a conversation Wit Mr.McCullough, for whom 1 sent a few days later.When he came to the bank, I asked him to explain the matter, and he admitted having drawn these bills of exchange and having attached to them the warehouse receipts under discussion, but stated that he had trusted Mec- Gillis and be did not know much more about them.| endeavoured to find out what became of the money, or if anybody else had a hand in it, and he would not state if any* body else had.I asked him if Mr.Chisholm was implicated with him, but he would not say; in fact, be would give me very little satisfaction.1 asked him what had become of the money, and he said he did pot know.hé had not benefited by it; but, under pressure, he said McGillis bad probably got it.At that time he would not ray whether Chisholm was implicated or not.SAID McGILLIS GOT MONEY.\u201cI saw him again, about a week later, when 1 again sent for him, not being satisfied with the first interview.He then told me McGillis had got the money: 1 asked him how he came to negotiate worthless receipts of this kind, and he stated that he bad trusted McGilfis to make them out.He said he had allowed McGillis to make these warehouse receipts out, and he not verified the fact whether there were any goods there or not.At that time the bank had ascertained there were not goods in the warehouse representing the receipts.We found there were only 800 or 900 boxes in the warehouse altogether, and we were told they belonged to some one \" MR.PEASE INVESTIGATES.\u201c_ \u201cUpon the return of the general manager, Mr.Pease, who had been away, he sent for Mr.McCullough and questioned him abou the matter and I heard Mr.McCullough admit to Mr.Pease he had benefited to the extent of $30,000.at least, from the money obtained under these fraudulent warehouse receipts.Besides Mr.Pease and myself, Mr.Chisholin was present.The interview took place in the general manager's office at the bank.I am absolutely certain I heard Mr.McCullough admit this.This was either - early in May or towards the end of April.\u201d MeGILLIS TELLS OF DOWNFALL.Witness was asked as to whether he had any conversation with Mr.D.J.McGillis on the subject.Mr.Stewart replied in the affirmative and continued: .\u201cI made several futile attempts to get Mr.Mellin to come up to my office, but finally succeeded \u2014 perhaps two or three weeks after my first discovery of these fictitious warehouse receipts.Ome of the bank's solicitors was present in the room when Mr.MeGillis called, and on questioning him about the warehouse receipts, he made the statement: \u2018! am the guilty party throughout all this affair.\u2019 He reiterated that statement, and seemed disinclined to say any mare; but on pressure as to who was implicated with him, which we were anxious to find ont, he raid Mr.McCullough, of the Croil & McCullough Dairy Company, was the other party guilty with himself.\u201d ; \u201cWho was present at this time?\u201d \u201cMr.V.E.Mitchell, the lawyer, and myself.\u201d \u201cDid you ask him where all the money had gone?\u201cYes.He said Mr.McCullough, of the Dairy Company had got most of it; he had Bea lee.did h \u201cWho else did he ray had got money except Mr.McCullough, of the Dairy Company?\u201d 5 \u201cHe did not say anyone else.\u201d FALL SOON BECAME RAPID.Mr.Stewart then went on to tell Me- Gillis\u2019 version of his downfall.\u201cHe (McGillis) stated that it started in a very small way originally; that probably £ a year and a half before this time, Mry McCullough abstracted some goods which the Dairy Company had in storage with the Montreal Cold Storage and Freezing Company, withont the knowledge of any of the officers of the company; that some short time after this abstraction, McCullough told McGillia of what he had done: and Me- Gillis stated that, through lack of moral courage, he failed to report the matter to any of the directors of the Cold Storage Company.Further abstractions.in a emall way, took place, and from that on MeGillia raid his downfall waa easy.He stated to me that he had been the catspaw of Me- Cullough throughout the whole affair.\u201d , \u201cDid he mention as to how he came to issue there wgrehouse receipts.and if the rooda were in the warehouse at the time*\u201d , SOME GOODS AT FIRST.\u201cHe «tated at first there were goods which represented partially the amount of some of the receipts, bul subsequently warehouse receipts were issued for which there were no goods.\u201d \u201cHe made thew statements to vou in the presence of Mr.Mitchell?\u201d \u2018Yes \u201d _ Witnesa further stated that Chisholm introduced ('roil & MeCullobih to the bank.and guaranteed their accornt.The guarantee was signed bv Thomas J.Chis- hol.n and D.+.Metiillis, With regard to the discounting of bills of exchange for Croil & McCullough.Chisholm sometim.s discussed the account and the limits to which it was to be confined.and arranged for discount rates and thinga of that kind.Occasionally Chisholm arranged the rate of discount on a bill of exchange, and afterwards \u2018sent it up.for Croil & McCullough.{- As to the notes

workingmen and the informal discussion among the members of the Road Committee it was fully half-past nine o\u2019clock last evening before the committee got to work on the question of the Terminal Railway.There was a letter from the Brass Workers\u2019 Union presented and also one from the Federated Association of Street Railway Employes.Both these associations wanted the Terminal Railway to pay ite employes weekly, and requested that a clause to this effect be put in its charter.: R.Ouimet then introduced upward of one hundred men into the room, and they presented a pétition signed by five thousand wofkmen.The petition objected to the Terminal Railwaÿ being introduced into the city of Montreal on the ground that it would not be possible to use the lines of the two companies on one transfer, and that the one transfer system should be maintained.ln other words, the entire street railway system of Montrcal should be under one management.Mr.Mullarkey, general manager of the Terminal Railway, was then asked what they were preparéd to do as regards rates.He said that they would be willing to give 8 tickets for 25 cents for use between 6 and 9 a.m.and between 4.30 and 7.30 p.m.At other times six tickets for a quarter.Mr.Mullarkey said that as soon as his company would pay 7 per cent.he would be willing to agres to \u2018rell eight tickets for a | quarter throughout the twenty-four hours.Personally he was in favour of cheap rates, but it was hard to convince capitalists that there was anything in it from the point of view of the investor.He figured from what he knew about the earnings of the M.8.R.that they would reduce their carnings about 20 per cent.gross if they sold eight tickets for a quarter throughout the twenty-four hours.Ald.Martineau said that the cheaper the fare the more people would ride.The general manager was of the opinion that in a city of the size of Montreal this did not count for a great deal.Mr.Campbell (attorney for the Montreal Btreet Railway)\u2014\u201cIs this seven per cent.on the amount ef stock issued, or upon the actual cost of the lines?\u201d =, Mr.Mullarkev, in reply.said that there would be no water in the stock of their company.However, he did not consider that he was there to answer questions put by the attorney of the Montreal Street Railway.Some of the members thought that the company should give 10 tickets for a quar- er.Upon representations by the chairman that the difference would be figured in the percentage of earnings to be paid to the city, Mr.Mullarkey remarked that it would be feasible.i Gencral Manager Wanklyn, of the MSR, raid that if a reduction were made in their percentage they would also consent to give better rates for workmen.Mr.Mullarkey went on to say that the return rate to Bout de I'lle would be 25 cents, instead of 40 cents.Some of the members thought this was too high.The matter was left in abeyance.as was also the proposal to revise the tariff in five years.NEWS OF THE
