That's Ayers. The same raid
sarsaparilla as it was made and
*old by Dr. J. C. Ayer 60 years
ago. In the laboratory it is
different. There modern appli-
ances lend speed to skill and
experience. But the sarsapa-
rilla is the same old sarsaparilla
that spade the record --60 years
of eures. Why don't we better
it? Well, we're much in the
condition of the Bishop and the
raspberry : " Doubtless, " he
said, "God aright have made a
better berry. But doubtless,
also. He never did." Why
don'twe better the sarsaparilla?
We can't. We are using the
game old plant that cured the
Indians and the Spaniards. It
has not been bettered. And
sinceaae make sarsaparilla com-
pound out of sarsaparilla plant,
we see no way of improvement.
Of course, if we were making
saute secret cliemical compound
we might..... But we're not.
We're Making the same old sar-

saute old sarsaparilla be-
cause it works the sante old
cures. It's the sovereign blood
purifier, and --it's Ayers.

CONVICTED OF MURDER,
JOHN TROY FOUND GUILTY OF KILL-
ING ANGUS 1'IICLEOD.
His Testimony Creates a Sensation—Justice
Robertson Characterizes it as it Most
Extraordinary Case.
A despatch from Napanee, says:—The
conviction of John F. Troy for the mur-
der of Angus McLeod on the 13th• Sep-
tember, 1893, teriuinated on Tuesday,
when His Lordship Mr. Justice Robert-
son characterized it as the most extra-
ordinary case that ever cape udder
his observation. The court was pack-
ed to suffoclttio'n. The ;prisoner said he
*Was friendless, and wanted to plead
guilty, but this his Lordship would not
consent to, and Mr. W. H. Perry eras
selected to defend 'him.
Mr. W. R. Riddell, Criown prosecutor,
in his opening address to the jury, said
that away back in September, 1803, the
town of Napanee was startled by the
news that a prominent citizen had been
shot down iu cold blood in his own
home. Almobt four years passed away,
and it. bad become generally accepted
that the McLeod murder would press
down as one of the mysterious ones
which would not out, when it was all
cleaned up in a. mast remarkable man-
ner. Some months ago a convict con-
fessed 'to the warden of the Kingston
penitentiary that he it was who shot
Angus McLeod. The Attorney -General
was notified, and he delegated Detec-
tive Rogers to enquire into the matter.
In an interview with Troy the detective
weaned hien that any statement made
might be used against him.
Four witnesses were called for the
prosecution. lietecteve Rogers, who
gave evidence of the prisoner's confes-
sion; Mrs. McLeod, widow of the mur-
dered man; Dr. Leonard, who held tbe
post-mortem; and Mr. Glynn, of Sar-
nia, who recognized the prisoner as the
party he had sold a revolver to.
The prisoner was placed in the box,
when his testimony created a sensa-
tion. He said the confession made to
Rogers was false in the main. the slid
not deny his guilt , tbut said that
Hughes and Penn were both with him
at IsfoLeod's house. When he entered
the house he had no intention of com-
mitting murder. In reply to a question
by the judge, he said it was the state
of his health that induced him to make
the confession. Ile grew quite eloquent
in describing the tortures he endured
while in solitary confinement in the
penitentiary.
Neither counsel for Crown nor de-
fence addressed the jury. The learned
judge said he would make a special re-
port of the case to the Minister of Jus-
tice and the Attorney -General, and
have them pass upon it.
The jury retired, and in a short while
returned from a verdict of guilty. His
Lordship reserved judgment until to-
morrow.
Commercial trade reports indicate a
general steady, but slow, increase in
the movement of trade, and there its
a more speculative spirit in the ais
than for some time past. In some
lines production largely exceeds
pres-
ent requirements,and pi
ices are con-
sequently depressed, but there is a
gradually iancreasing consumptive de-
mand. Wheat has been weak lately,
but later it has advanced. The en-
quigy for cotton goods its dull, and a
heavy output is still on the nlaa'lcet.
Pint cloths are again lo'wee, and
mills are continuing the output in ex-
oess of current needs. Much the same
can be said of woollens, thouglb there
is an increasing demand; the ,twice of
wool its firmer. Some furnaces in Pitts -
bung and Pennsylvania have stopped:

DISASTROUS EARTHQUAKES IN THE

Earthquakes are shaking the islands

The cable a few days ago, reported that
a nu4nber had been killed at Guade-
loupe. Details were supplied by the
Quebec) liner Madiana, which arrived
at New York on 7.'ulesday, from Lee-
ward island ports. When the steam-
er reached Antigua, forty miles from
Gaudeloupe, on May 1, everyone in
port was discussing the shooks. The
heaviest had occurred two days before,
when fifty negroes had been killed
outright by being buried in the ruins
of their houses. In a brick church
a congregation of two hundred people
were caught by the collapse of
the walls, and fifty crushed to
death. Those in the streets saw
the houses sway bask and forth.
and the walls of the brick structures
creek. The report also said that
twenty-five or thirty people bad lost
their lives at Point -a -Litre. Twelve
houses of briok in Guadeloupe had
been demolished and scores of others
cracked and seamed by the shocks.
From Antigua the lladiana steamed
to Montserrat, arriving there an May
2. There, too, a :state of terror ex -
/Kited. Mat tows was rocked like a
boat at. sea on April 30. S'ixtouseswere
destroyed, but no lives lost. This is-
land before the earthquake had not
been noted for the piety of its peo-
ple, butwhile the Matdiana was in
that port meetings were held at short
in'f eg'vals in all of the churches, whirl(
were crowded wilt worshippers.
The inhabitants finally believed
that it was on account of their in-
iquities that they bad been• visited by
earthquake%, and tbttt if they did not
turn they would all be utterly destroy-
ed. Not only were services (held twice
daily in the mall churches or chapels
but open-air meetings were held.
Sixteen Persons Burned or Smothered lie -
low Decks.
A despatch from New York says:—
The Mallory Line steamer Leona, which
left her pier on Saturday, bound for
Galveston, put back, and arrived in
port on Sunday, sixteen persons having
perished. The dead were steerage pas-
sengers on the steamer who succumbed
in a terrible struggle during a fire
which occurred off the Delaware capes
at an early hour yesterday morning.
The horror ofthe story can hardly
be detailed. '('hose who are dead were
penned up below decks, and although
frantic efforts were made by the offi-
cers to save them, the fire had such
terrific headway before the danger was
discovered that all escape was cut off.
The steamer carried amongsther car-
go many bales of cotton. It is not
certain how the fire originated, but
when it was discovered it burst forth
with• such fury that it was impossible
to reach the steerage, even when the
steerage passengers apparently were
unmindful of the danger or else the
smoke and flames, diad not reached
them. • The saloon passengers were
first aroused and in such a manner as
to occasion little alarm. When it be-
came apparent that the fire had cut
off the steerage passengers, the cap -
tail>, and his men poured great quan-
tities of water down the ventilator and
eight of the steerage passengers 'final-
ly succeeded in making their escape.

THE WAR OVER.
The war between Turkey and Greece
is practically over. Pourparlers have
taken place between the powers, over-
tures of mediation were made to the
Greek Government on Tuesday, and the
Cabinet, after serious deliberation, ac-
repted the offer. Greece undertakes to
recall her troops from Crete, and agrees
to such autonomous government for
that island as the powers,( in their wis-
daan. shall deem best, and promises to
accept unreservedly the counsels of
the powers in settling peace between
the two countries. The spirits of Greece
is broken, and even the anti -Royalists,
who, a short time ago, would listen
to no suggestion of peace, submit to
the iron terms o1 the powers without
a murmur.
The secret is out. The disaster to
the Ggesek cause is due entirely to the
blundering of the Crown Peine. This
amateur military commander assumen
the functions of press censor. In this
ca:nacity be suppressed those telegrams
which died nbt please him, and altered
others with a (rete haulm, until the cor-
respondents of the London press, find-
ing that they were frequently made to
say the very traverse of What they 'hate
written, had to abandon the wire, and
resort to the post -office at Athens for
the safer conveyance of their de spatch-
ens. This state of affairs amounts for
*the delay in telling the story of Prince
IConstantine's blunder. When he order -
el the flight at Lftrµsisa the Turltiswere
defeated, 'beat inn his cowardly imagi-
nation he cbnstrueill their retreat into
a flank movement, and rushed off like
a frightened girl, with his troops
following pell-mell in confusion at his
heels. He destroyed the morals of
the arils', and his name is only men-
tioned in Athens with execration:
NOTE OF THE POWERS.
The conditions insisted upon by Ger-
many, the chief of which is that°Greece
shall give her formal consent to the
principle of autonomy for Crete, will
be accepted by the Greek Government.
The note of the powers has not yet
been presented, but it has been drawn
and is to the following effect:—"Upon
a formal declaration by Greece that she
will recall her troops and agree to such
an autonomous regime for Crete as the
powers in their wisdom shall deem
best, and accept unreservedly the coun-
sels of the powers, they will intervene
in the interests of peace." The note
will probably be presented.'to-morrow
after the German Minister has received
final instructions. It is understood that
Greece, in her reply, will assent to all
of these conditions. DZ. Balli, the Pre-
mier, and M. Skouloudis, the Minister
of Foreign Affairs, have had a long
interview to -day with Mr. Egerton, the
British representative, which has caus-
ed considerable comment. It is believ-
ed to he connected with the expected
intervention of tbe powers. A despatch
from Domokos says that heavyrains
there prevent fighting.
The recall of the forces from Crete
has been received with resignation by
the
publics. The De1 aup
is organs
at-
tack the Government bitterly for ap-
pealing to Europe, but most of the
papers accept this as inevitable, and
violently attack the Etbnike Hetairia,
asking it to render an account of its
actions. On learning that the Crown
Prince had appointed his dismissed
chief of staff, Col. Sapoundzaki, and
his aide-de-camp (elite Hadjipetro, to
the command of an artillery regiment,
the Government has recalled both offi-
cers to Athens and ordered them to re-
turn immediately.

Wholesale trade et Toronto has been
quiet this week.. There bas been no
special movement, and conditions are
unchanged. Dere and there some slight
contractions or expansions were re-
ported, but generally speaking business
has ruled quiet. A moderate trade*
,reportled in (try goods, hardware and
leveller, while groceries are on the
quiet side. Dierehants, however, are
not grumbling, but expect improve-
ment ebertly. etemlttanoes are yet
bar.klwuird, which is dura to soma extent
to 'farrows being busy seeding, and
consequently there is a. limited move-
ment 01 country produce. The grain
markets aro' slow., the demand being
small. Large contratns natle been made
far wjessbl room for the es,port of corn
from Montreal thin and next month.
Money continues easy. Priine commer-
cial vapor 18 discobnted a:t ti per
cent., and call loalils on stocks continue
uxs.hanged at 4 i-2 per cents. There is
a lair demand for bank is`s'ues, hvhich
is stimudatett by cheap nianey and also
by thie semi-annual dividends to be paid
on June 1st.
Navigation is now fully opened at
Montreal, arrkvahs from sea beingfair-
ly numerous for the season; the eanala
hese atho all open, and i'ralin is owning
fou -ward freely for shipment to Europe;,
but the generna distribution of mer-
ebenidicse counurywards does not show
any very remota increase. In Omani
goods,, such as metals, hardware,pa•ints,
ete., tbetre is rather more doing. in the
way of shipments by steamboat to
titer lioint s. In dry goods trade is
rather better with the country. than
with city retailers, who complain that
so much late wet weather has interfer-
ed with their sales. Sugars continue
very dull, and one of the local refin-
eries has tempersrily shut down, ow-
ing to acmumulatton of re'finosl stock.
1 ens are also still very quiet,, but the
ltropoemi duty in the .United States of
ten per cent. will help the market herei
if adopted. Tiidtws and leather remain
rather dull, but the lona' high priced
for hides and ewlfek ns axle unillangr?cite
though the &emend Intim. tanners is
battik., and stocks in stsotre arts aconmu-
lating. Theme is good demand for de-
si;ralite gentles of ohizese for export by
first oiit-gong steamers, and 10 tole
1-2 cents. 16 biting' paid. foie good col-
ored +goods, bu•.; ter is coming in liber-
aIly acrd considerable deeili,no is noted.
The money ma'dket is unchanged and
call money is amenity amenable at 4 pelt

his men, and withone fierce blow with
his sword completely severed the Greek

"DEVOURER OF THE TURKS."
Persons who appreciate Emperor
William's ambition to model his career
after that of his grandfather are won-
dering how he reconciles his champion -
stip of the Turks against the Greeks
with the attitude of -the revered Kai-
ser in 1828. Then the latter tried ev-
ery means to obtain permission to join
the Russian campaign against the Sul-
tan and was so vehement in his denu-
ciations against the latter and against
the Ottoman empire that he was wont
to sign his letters to his relatives,
'Wilhelm der Turkenfresser" (Wil-
liam, the devourer of the Turks.) How
little the old Kaiser would have liked
tion d title of
- nes a "The
uch
t am
he q
Great" on the pedestal of his new sta-
tue may be known from the fact that
when a monument was raised to hie
'father, King Frederick William III.,
and it was proposed to inscribe on it
"to King Frederick William III., by
Emperor 'William," be insisted that
"Emperor" be changed to "King," de-
claring that it was not fitting
that a son should make use of a high-
er title than that of his father in such
a place. .
Now the question of the hour
Is a "burning" one, you bet,
It is, "S'hail or shall we not
Let the furnace go out yet 1"
