Railroad rates from Toronto o Montreal are, also, almostdouble the charge from Chicago to New York, al - tough the American rail journey is about treble the length of the Canadian ore.

The poultry manager at the Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa, submitted that the beat step that could be taken to benefit the farmer is to place in his hands an indus- try that will yield him a quick return. If you take small fruits, it will be three years before any return is obtained; seven to ten years for an apple orchard to yield a return; two or three years for a heifer to give milk in paying quantit- iea, while it requires half, or nearly a whole generation for a forest to stature. On the other hand, the farmer who goes into raising poultry may have his cock- erels ready for the market in three or four months, from time of setting the eggs; the pullets—which are the young hens—ought to begin to lay in five or siee menthe -nand thus within one ; e- -Om time shotof investment, he has return for his money—a return of what is always marketable and commands a good price. There are other reasons why poultry are valuable:to the farmer, which are to well-known to require iiiehiticn., here. 4 PRO1IIllITIO RALLY. Delegates from ail Parts of the Pro- vince Meet at Toronto. TO PREPARE FOR A PLEBISCITE Progress of the Temperance Cause In Canada Reviewed by Celebrated Speakers— Greatest Temper- ance Gathering Ever held in Canada. TORONTO, Oct, 4.—Temperance hall, in which the Union Temperance Convention met yesterday, was found too small to ac- commodate the numerous delegates from all parte of the province. During the rest of its session the deliberations of the convention will be held in the Horticul- tural Pavilion. The object of the gathering is to further the interests of prohibition in view of the provincial plebiscite next January, and much enthusiasm is manifested by- those who represent the different sections of Ontario. When the convention opened Mayor R. J. Fleming eves called to the chair. Many prominent temperance advocates were "resect, and these had seats on the plat - tam; Senator Vidal, Rev. Drs. Potts, and McKay, Rev. J. It Hector, Mr. A. G. Wolf- enbarger, Prof. Hickins. While the Committee on Proceedings was at work the secretary read a short account of the work of the Dominion Alliance since its inception. The Scott Act was still in force in twenty-five coun- ties and two cities in other provinces. During the past year two attempts had been made by the enemies of temperance to re- peal the .Act, but both efforts had resulted unsuccessfully. The report advised the election of independent prohibitionists to the House of Commons. The work of the Royal Prohibition Commission was men- ti.oued without comment. That intemperance was on the decrease in Ontario was shown by the fact that since 1887 the number of licenses in the province bad been diminished by nearly half. The history of the plebiscite ques- tion was detailed, and the reasons for en- dorsing this method of gaining the views of the people shown. The platform celebrities delighted the audience with a few short speeches. Sena - tar Vidal, who opened, introduced himself as a total abstainer for fifty-two years, He had been the first chairman of the Do- minion Alliance, and had been president of the same organization for nineteen years. Be held that prohibition was above all political questions. It affected the pros- perity of the country and of the people. The Scott Act had done a great deal for the country, but before the Scott Act had been heard of oyer 500,000 citizens had petitioned for total prohibition. Rev. Dr. Potts congratulated the dele- gates on the size of the convention. The gathering was the greatest in the history of Canadian temperance. The principle and spirit of religion had been introduced into the movement. The reverend doctor coun- selled moderation in non -essentials and firmness in essentials. Rev. J. H. Hector, the colored orator, introduced himself as a Canadian, al- though ho did not look it. He congratu- lated the convention on its size, and expressed a wish for the day when pro- hibition would carry in Canada. "And then, if the lawmakers don't give us what we want we'll rip 'em up the back so the angels '11 Hover know 'em," Bishop Campbell, of the Reformed Epis- copal church, lipped that all would soon see the triumph of the prohibition move- ment. Mr. A. G. Wolfenbarger, an Amerioan, followed in an able speech. The conven- tion would lay the foundation of a gigantio empire. The Christian church was men- aced by the runi power. He thought pro- hibition would carry next January. Es hoped. that the prohibitionists would fight hard and win the day. Mrs. Thornby, president of the London W.C.T.U., assured the convention that prohibition would carry in the Forest city. Mrs. Macdonald made a plea for unity. The women dreaded division. The men represented every shade of politics, but the women had no political animus. The chairman read a telegram convey- ing ereetings from the Prohibition League of Manitoba, now in session at Winnipeg. Ex -Mayor Gibson, of Woodstock, said : " I never took a glass of liquor in my life, but if the liquor men will restore to me what they have taken away, I will pension two of them off. They say, ' Let liquor alone and it will let you alone.' That is not 80." Rev. Dr. Dewart and ex -Lieut. -Governor Aikins made brief addresses. Half a dozen vice-presidents were elec- ted and the Mayor was made permanent chairman. Credential and other commit- tees were appointed. It was arranged that the convention at from 9.30 a.m. to 12 noon, and from 2 to 5 p.m. It was dee cided that no speech be longer than five minutes. . In the evening thousands attended the platform meeting at which addresses were byHon. H. Blake,Rev. R G. deliveredS. H. Cahill, Rev. . A. McKay W. and Rev. J. H. Hector. X x x Mr. Robert Keyes, of Perth county, Ont., writes from Chicago that since his arrival there he has lost no opportunity of conversing with American farmers from all parts of the Union, and of as- certaining fry m then prices of imple- ments l e - menta and of grain in their local mar- kets. Moreover, he has met relatives of his own from Illinois, Indiana and Kansas who are engaged in farming in these states and with whom he very i thoroughly uKhly discussed the situation ion of the farmer in the United States. The conclusion of his observations and in- quiries was this: That the Ontario farmer is infinitely better off than his #allow in the United States. Ile has a better soil, a better home market, a greater diversity of products, and, upon the whole, better prices. Wheat sells at several points in such banner states as Illinois, Iowa and Indiana at 43 eta. a bushel , and during this 1 essummer ' can has been as low as 10 cents bushel. In point of soil no part of the. United States will bear comparison with Ontario. The dozens of farmers with 'whom Mr. Keyes has conversed all as- sure him that they have found it during recent years practically impossible to make ends meet at the prices obtained for their products, and that the mort- gage indebtedness of the farmers, which in Indiana alone amounts to £8225,000, 000, is steadily increasing.

A MYSTERY. The Cause of sirs. Ilooper'8 Death loot Yet Transpired. PORT HOPE, Oct. 4.—Great excitement prevails in this town, although there seems` but little justification for it. All kinds of rumors are afloat with reference to the death of Mrs. John Hooper. Those who bave gone thoroughly into all the evidence of the ease 'known to the authorities. at present have come to the conclu- sion that the whole case depends upon Prof. Ellis' report as to whether or not there is poison to be found in the stomach of the deceased woman. If poison is found then all the evidence tends to show that he» husband poisoned her. In case he did the deet., the motive is plain. He desired to marry Miss Stap- ley, of Ottawa. The inquest was continued last night. Nothing of importance was developed and the inquiry was again adjourned until next Tuesday, pending a report from the analyst. Ministers at Mitchell. ItrrrcltELL, Oct. 4.—Tbe Conservative demonstration held in Mitchell was a grand success, The town was beautifully decorated with flags, banners and arches. Sir John Thompson and his party were met at the station at 10.30 a -m. by thou- sands. The principal streets were paraded by the proceesion. An address was read by Mayor W. B. Davis on behalf of the town, after which the party retired for luncb to the Miens house, At 1.30 an immense throng of people attended at the Kitterson park where addresses were de- livered by Sir John Thompson, Sir A. P. Caron, Hon. T. M. Daly, Hon. N. C. Wal- lace and Dr. Montague. James Dougherty presided over the meeting, and an address was also read by Mr, James Jones, presi- dent of the Llberal.Oonservative Associ- ation. The gathering was one of the largest ever held in Mitchell, about fear thousand being present, and was most en- thusiastic throughout. More Redcoats at Halifax. HALIFAX, Oct, 4.—From present indica- tions it looks as though two British regi- ments will soon be in Halifax, Last even- ing a reporter was informed on excellent authority that an important ohange will take place here in March next, when the Eighth King's Regiment will be removed from Halifax to Vancouver to take charge of the barracks there.

MOORS BESIEGE A FORTRESS Eighteen Dead and Many Wounded on the Spanish Side—Moorish 1,osses Heavy—Spain's Prompt Dieu - sures Cause Offenders to Sue for Peace. MADRID, Oct. 4.. -The Spanish troops in occupation of Melilla, Morocco, were at tacked by natives on Monday. The artil • lery and cavalry did great execution. Eighteen Spaniel" soldiers were killed and thirty-five wounded. The Spanish Government recently de- cided to strengthen their fortifications at Melilla, owing to the disturbed state of the country. Commencement of the work incensed the natives, and on Monday a force of over 6,000 natives made an attack on the garrison, numbering 400 men. The Spanish troops fought all day without relief or food, while the Moors were being constantly reinforced. A civilian corps was organized by white residents of the city, The combined Spanish foeoes wore, however, greatly outnumbered by the enemy, and were finally compelled to re- treat into the fortress, where they are still besieged. After the Spanish troops and their civil- ian allies were forced by overwhelming numbers to retreat into the citadel, the Moors attempted to take the place by assault, They swarmed up the roadways and tried in every way to seals the walls. The beleaguered men poured volley after volley at them, but as the Moors did not fight in any regular order the fire was not as destructive as it otherwise would have been. General Margallo, who was iu command of the garrison. distinguished himself by his gallantry. Calling for volunteers—and nearly every man offered his services— Gen. Margalla placed himself at their head and made a aortia upon the Moors. The latter retreated, keeping up a heavy fire upon the whites until the Moors who had been operating on the other side of the ! citadel came to their assistauce, when the will not come from Bermuda to Halifax, defenders were driven back. These sorties but from England direct to the garrison. were repeated throughout the day, but the The Berkshire Regiment now at Bermuda Moors managed to hold their position, will in the spring return to England. Two Before the retreat was made to the regiments will arrive here in March, sup- citadel troops were dispatched to escort posed. to be the 23rd Welsh Fusiliers and to this place of refuge military labor- Cameronians. Instead of one regiment ers who were employed in works being stationed in Halifax there will here- at Fort Gurinoh. They succeeded in getting the men into the citadel, but had a hard fight to do so, being attacked on all sides by the Moors. Tho natives pursued the retreating whites up to the walls of the citadel, despite a deadly fire directed at thein from the fort. Toward the end of the day the Moors abandoned their guerilla mode of warfare and formed themeelves into ranks. Then shouting their battle cries they advanced upon the citadel. When they were within a short distance of the wail the Heavy main gate swung open and out galloped the cavalry. They dashed into the ranks of the advancing Moors, their keen edged sabers swinging right and left among tho enemy, who broke ranks and retreated as hastily as possible. The Moors were rid- den down and trampled upon by the horses and a number of then met their deaths in this manner. Tho cavalry, who were numerically weak, did not dare to pursue the enemy far from the aitadol. They retired behind the walls and waited the second coming of the Moors, who, though they had been temporarily com- pelled to retreat, were in nowise disheart- ened by the losses inflicted on them. The cavalry made several charges, always with the same result, The Moors would retreat until the chase was abandoned, when they would again assume the aggressive. The Moors knew that if they captured the citadel it would have to be by assault, as there was no chance of forcing a surrender by Beige. The place contains largo magazines and the food supplies of the whole convict settlement. Equally important is the water supply, which is procured from large rock cisterns. Therefore, with the bravery characteristic of the Riff tribes, who displayed no hesitation whatever when their leaders called them to face the deadly volleys from behind the walls of the citadel, they displayed an absolute disregard for danger that compelled the admiration of, the men fighting against them. As the news of the battle, rapidly spread by runners, reached the villages back from the coast, the male inhabitants sprang to arms and hastened to the aid of tribesmen. The fury of the Moors was added to when the Spanish artillerymen wrecked the mosque, which was sacred in the eyes of the natives. This mosque was not in Melilla proper, but in an adjacent village. The many houses destroyed were also outside Melilla. The Spanish Government is hastening with all possible speed its preparations for the relief of the beleaguered citadel. Troops, cannon and ammunition are being de- spatched. from Seville and Malaga. A gun- boat with orders to bombard the strong- hold of the Riffians is already on the way to the coast. These mountaineers are practically pirates, most of them knowing the sea as well as they do the mountains in which they live. It was only a short time ago that the Spanish gunboat Isla De Luzon was sent to effect the rescue of the crew of a Spanish trading vessel which had fallen into the hands of the Riff pirates. The mission of the gunboat was unauccessful and the fate of the captives has never been known. They were probably sold into slavery in the interior. Among the cap- tives was a Spanish woman. after be two, and Halifax will be made first ohange station and a regiment will be permanently stationed at Vancouver. Manitoba School Caeo Delayed. Ornewa, Oct. 4.—The hearing of the Manitoba School case was put off, owing to the absence of Justice Gwynne, because Of ill -health, There was no quorum without him, as Judge Sedgwick cannot sit on the case, having already expressed his opinion on it. Enquiry at Judge Gwynne's reeldence showed that he is only suffering from a slight cold and expects to take his seat in two or three days, so that the Manitoba School case seems likely still to be dis- posed of at this session. Stabbed by the Mired Man. Sr. HxnuRE, Que., Oot. 4.—Edmond Beauvais, a liquor dealer of Montreal, who also owns and (tarries on a farm at St. Mathias, was stabbed yesterday at the latter place by one of his hired hands, a Frenchman named Grailion. It is feared Beauvais will die. .A. man named Stebbon, who interfered to save Beauvais, was also stabbed, but not dangerously. The -would- be murderer is still at large. The stab- bing originated in a dispute over the ownership of some corn. Not Settled Yet. OTTAwA, Oct. 4. -In regard to the cable h statingthat the project roject of swift despatch P steamers between England and Canada is practically settled, and indicating that Milford Haven has been decided upon as the point of departure for Halifax in win- ter and Quebec in summer, Hon. George E. Foster says that if the project had been practically settled he would be the first to know it. There was so far nothing done that he could make public. It is, how- ever, understood that the Government has a proposition as indicated above under their consideration. Weather Probabilities.

I12orrrnx&L, Oat. 4. — The Presbytery Committee in Prof. Campbell's appeal re- ported that it had been unable to find in his statement of defence any modification of his views, and as he had declined to withdraw or modify the views, all his pleadings before the court were properly regarded as an attempt to justify the statements of the printed lecture founded in the libel rather than the manifestation ofa desire to withdraw or modify them. The motion was passed 'without discussion. A Member of Parliament Dead. WATFORD.
