Tun annual convention of the Grand Association of the Patrons ofj InilfistrF Is 1 lug held in Toronto WS Week. At hieeting of the Fire Under - =Ors' Association, held this week, 41` vas decided to raise insurance rates Ili Toronto twenty-five per cent. on all risks, other than private dwellings and cotltents. IT 18 now reported that Hon. J. C. £'atterson will take refuge in the Tory hive—East Middlesex, a Gov- ernment situation to be provided for the present member, Mr. Jos. Mar- shall. f Tnn political situation is unchang- ed—the Clovernment evidently being afraid to make a move. A meeting of the Cabinet will be held to -day,: when some a>etion may be taken on the Manitoba school question. It has been rumored during the week that a session of the House will be held before the election takes place, but that is not at all likely. GanRoa- introduced a bill in- to the Legislature to amend the Pub - fie School Act, providing that muni- eipal eouncils shall have power and shall be compelled to rectify errors or omissions in school assessment rates, so as to prevent inequalities in - the assessment of properties. The bill was read a first time, as was another brought in by the sante Menhber, giving nhueicipal councils tower to vary the amounts of statute labor payable in certain defined localities, ix rim Legislature, on Monday, in reply to a question, Hon. Mr. Gib- son said that the following counties 'fere now in receipt of the $4000 grant from the Government towards erecting houses of Eefin e; Welling- ton, Yorlt, Brant, Lincoln, Norfolk, 'Water'loo, Micelle ex, "41"ellated, Elgihh sand Oxford. The following were now erecting buildings : Iluron, Hal- dimand, Lanebton, Leeds and. Gren- ville. The institutions, tic stated, were snider the sitpeevision of the (iirvernnhent only to the extent that they were inspected. in order to as - pertain whether or not they were en- titled to the grant. A ln':rurx about to be published by the Dominion Superintendent of sura.nce will show that eight charter- ed companies have ceased to tits busi- ness in life insurance in Canada, and their deposits with the Government, ranging frons. $90,000 to $150,000, are applicable to the -discharge of policy obligations by the companies. Six new companies have registered and are permitted �to do life insur- ance business in Canada on the assessment plan. They are: The Canadian Order of Woodmen of the World, Colonial Mutual Life Associa- tion, Commercial Travellers' Mutual Benefit Society, Grand Council of the Catholic Mutual Benefit Association of Canada, home Life Association of Canada and Provincial Provident In- stitution. There are now eighty-two insurance companies licensed to do business in Canada,in life, fire, ac- cident, guarantee, plate glass, bur- glary and steam boiler insurance. To snow that the revised tariff Or 1894 has not relieved the consumer of any taxes, it is only necessary to refer k; the official trade returns for. the last six months, compared with the corresponding six months in 1893, when the old tarifa' was in force. cc, The dutiable imports entered for home consumption for the six months end- ing Dee. 31, 1893, amounted to $32,845,718, on which a duty was collected of $10,198,860, an average duty of 31.3.

This was under the revised tariff, and the reduction in the rate of duty amounts t to the enormous sum of one-tenth of due per Cont. Taking some of these ; ) months by themselves, the rate of 1 duty under the revised tariff is higher, while in others it is a little r lower and for the half year just' about the same.
