AUDACIOUS DAYLIGHT ROBBERY., A Jewelry Store Clearest Out at the Point of the Pistol. TORONTO, Dec. 38.-4, most daring rob- bery was cofnmitted in a Queen street jew- elry store yesterday.

The manager is Amnion Davis, and a boy nam- ed William Mitchell is also employed. About 9.15 in the morning three young men commonly dressed, walked into the store and presenting their revolvers at Davis and the boy ordered them into the back room. There they tied them with ropes and gagged them with pocket hand- kerchiefs. Leaving one of the trio to ]seep guard the other two ransacked the safe and shop, They found $517.00 in cash in the safe. Of this sum $17.90 belonged to the St. Clarens avenue Methodist church and Sun- day school, of which Davis is treasurer. They took Davis' satchel and stuffed into it watches and jewelry estimated by the firm at from $2,000 to $4,000. Then rhe two men with. the plunder left by the back way. The third remained on guard until they had had plenty of time to get a good start and then be. too. departed. After a hard straggle the boy got his bands fret', secured a knife and cut Davis' bonds. Then the ]atter bolted for the police station. At the same time the cry that a rubbery' had been committed was raised and P. C. MeRae, seeing Davis bolt- ing down the street, jumped into n rig and gave eitase. He overhauled the running manager on Church street, and was much disappointed at finding he had got the wrong man.

Pressure With the Object of Annexing the: Dominion He Tells the Yankees is the Extremest Folly—Better Trade Itolatious is the Road Erastus Would Travel, But He is Opposed to Continental Free Trade, ' WOONSOOICET, B. L, Dec, 21.—At the Business Men's panquet here last night, Mx Erastus Wiman, chief propagandist of Commercial Union with Canada, spike at considerable length in favor of is opin- ions. Introducing his remarks he said: The people of the United States ould not be beguiled into the belief that the annex- ation of Canada was possible within a quarter of a century, even if ten. The recent agitation, with this end i view,was entirely inconsequent, so far as practical politics were concerned. So greatan event as to lessen by 40 per cent. the area of the British empire would only be brought about by revolution or by constitutional means. A revolution was presence of the ballot bo sponsible government, especiallyGreat Britain was ready 'erything to Canada short As for constitutional mean m an ap- peal to the people n.

Maclean, M. P., Cotuntittaa, Tonoseo, Dec. 28.—In the Police Court yesterday Mayor Fleming was again placed on the stand in connection with his charge of criminal libel against W. F.

He denied promising to lift the two notes, one of $5,- 000 and the other of $2,000, nor did he leave Lebb's office one clay to get them. At that tune Rundle owed him, he said, 25,000. The original 85,000 note was paid in May, 1880. The last renewal of is note was in Jeme, 1889. After the cross-examination had been oing on for about an hour the examina- ion came to a very ordinary termination. There are two clauses in the criminal libel act. The serious one covers libels which the author knows to be false; the other a simple libel, in which malice is not alleged. On the major charge the police magistrate must hear evidence for the de- ' fence; on the minor one he need not, During Mr. Fleming's Bross -examination Mr. Carry said they had no evidence to show that Maclean knew the alleged libel to be false. Mr. Nesbitt—Do you want to amend your information, then? Mr, Osler (who also appeared for the Mayor)—He can get a year under the min- or inor charge, that will be enough. The Mayor—He ought to get it for a thing like that. Maclean—What should a man get who has done what you did. The counsel for the cemplainant then abandoned the charge that the libel was a wilful one, and this ended the case. The defendant's witnesses will not be heard until, the Sessions now. Maclean was bound over in $200 to answer the charge and the Mayor in $200 to prosecute him. CRIMINAL. Five white prisoners escaped from jail at Clarksville, Tenn„ Thursday.

After the girl was safely housed with the Porter family Bark- er secured a revolver, came to the house, threatening to kill anyone who interfered with him reaching his daughter.
