Stewart Is pre- paring to make 1t hot for the direct- ors of the Toblque Valley Railway Company over what he claims to be the forgery of his signature to the return of expenditure on the road for 1:91. According to Stewart's story, !t. had a quarrel with the directors be - cause the statement of expenditure for that year contained about 110,000 more than had actually been dlsper.ed upon work. He refused to sign the state- ment and resigned. When he was in Ottawa two weeks ago he found the return for 1551, made to the Depart - ment of Railways by the company. contained this over -statement of ex- penditure duly sworn to before an Ottawa magtstra.te, and signed "iohn E. Stewart." It was upon that return that the official report of the Depart-- men epart-men slowing the expenditure on the road was based. Stewart claims the signature, purporting to be his. is forgery. In support of that etatelneht he has forwarded from his home in Andover. N.B., to the Minister of Railways a formal affidavit. In which he says : "I did not at any time sign or make oath to any return of work performed, or money expended, on the Toblque Valley Railway, for the cal year 1991." Mr. Smith, Deputy Minister of Mar- ine, returned to -day from the meeting .' the Anglers' Association at Clay- ton. N.T.

Aug. 7.—Governor Shultz has just sent a communication to the Government here, drawing attention anew to the actions of American whaling vessels at mouth of the Mac- kenzie River. The information which be forwards as gathered from the let- ter of a mislonary who spent last win- ter to that inhospitable region. It is to the effect that no less than POS United States whaling vessels winter- ed intered at Herschell Island. Complaints have frequently been made of late years by the Hudson Hay Compute. who have protested to the Government against the unfair competition to which they are subjected by the op- erations of these intruders in the far rorth. All the Hudson Bay supplies which are brought into the country pay duty upon entry, while the goods which the whalers trade to the l qu1- emux pay no customs tax whatever, there being no organizatlea in these i tat ric tae Another objection Is that by means .f the traffic Indians are supplied with spirits, with the usual demoralizing effect Apart from these objections there is the further consideration of which the Government is bound to take notice, sooner or later, namely, the destruc- tion of the very valuable fisheries by these foreign intruders. Amerlcam whalers have a station at Point Bur- row on the Behring Strait From this point, however, they are unable t enter Arctic waters in time to be- nefit by the early fishing, whereas, by wintering at Herschell Island,they can commence operation• almost with the first breaking up of winter, as the Immense body of water going out of .Mackenzie River clean the estuary of drift It, for many miles out to sea It Is during this early period of the year, especially. that great numbers of whales and other sea animals are captured by the visiting foreigners. In view of the value of these flsher- ks and the harmful effects upon the native population which this elicit trad- ing Involves. It is more than ikely that before king the Government will be induced to send an expedition to the mouth of the Mackenzie River. As a matter of fact very rattle is known concerning the resources of that great section of country and of the waters which now through It or wash its love- ly shores during summer months. The Hudson Bay Company have never been very communicative on their subjects, although it Is well known that a very considerable portion of their valuable stock of fors and the like comes from the Mackenzie River country.

Mr. Maclaren maintained that the heal option law palmed by Ontario was not prohibitory, as Mr. Blake had stated, but was merely a restriction of the traffic.
