loads, composed of 1,604 cattle, 1,g7 hog%

A few lots of good cattle were on sae,
but the bulk of offerings were of the com-
mon to medium qualities.
Slow and dull was the condbion of the
cattle mareet to -day, Receipts, commenc-
ing at the Junction on Monday, have been so
liberal this week that buyers have been able
to fill their orders at tower rates lean any

was slow at the decline. The market is all
the way from 20e to 40e lower than a week
ago, the most decline being on the common
and medium grades.

Bradstreet's Trade Review.
3Ioutreal—The tone of general business
here continues good. Drygoods men report
that an excellent summer business is sail
being done. Linens are proving one of the
most popular lines of wear. Values in this
line, as in many others, are firm. There
is a growing tendency on the part of the
puraasfing public to buy mostly the better
class of goods. The steady advances in prices
have lessened the difference between th
cheap and the better lines and the latter are
more in demand. The clenaand for groceries
continues heavy. Good shipments are being
made to ail parts of Canada. The hardware
trade is heavy in all /ltie$•. Country trade
is showing a good tone and colfeetions are
generally fair. Dairy exports still are light.
Butter and cheese are generally steady to
easy. Hides again show an easy tone.

ally fair to good. Those from Western Can-
ada show but little improvement. Money
centnues somewhat scarce here and rules

demand for labor is good and wages keep
up. Country retail trade is active,

PERJURY CASE REPORTED.
Mother and Daughter Swear Falsely
Against Young Man.
Kingston despatch; Police Magistrate
Varrel has reported -to K. L. Whiting,
E. C., County Crown Attorney, a ease of
perjury. Mrs. Doherty, Montreal street,
had Joseph McCormick, a piano worker,
arrested. She testified that McCormick
had promised, to marry her daugher,
Doherty, who was only nineteen years
old. The later had a ehild last month.
Both mother and daughter swore to the
girl's age being nineteen.
J. McDonald Mowat, on behalf of the
prisoner, produced a certificate from the
Provincial Registrar, showing the girl to
be twenty•three years old. On the pro-
duction of this the Magistrate immedi-
ately- dismissed the charge, and remark-
ed that was but another case where false
evidence had been given. Upon such evi-
dence, if not successfully contradicted,

Sydney, July 29. --Much unrest pre-
vails in. portions of the New He.

an encounter between the natives and
a punitive expedition landed by H.
M. cruiser Cambrian to avenge the •

Some of the natives were in pos-

which huts been adjusted by the recent.
ly signed convention. Details are lack-
ing as to which of the islands the
punitive expedition was landed on, but
while the inhabitants are for the most
part heathens and ancestor -worshippers,
they are honest and truthful, if some-
what revengeful.

The "Mast and Sail" Drill Will Again
Be Enforce&
London. July 29. ---In consequence of
reports having been made to the Ad-
miralty. of seamen in some of his Ma-
jesty's ships having refuted to go
aloft in rough weather, it has been de-
cided to reinstate the old 'meet and
sail" system of instruetion in the har-
bor training ships.
This system was abolished about 1
seven years ago, and with it went ties
old cruiser Squadron, consisting of
fully -rigged etemn *bike, in wleeli
youths were sent to sea before being
'tamed out into the ships in the filet
line. The sailing brigs Nautilus and
Liberty were also dismantled.
In the place of this system a new
one was introduced by which boys
were first sent to sea in the ships of
the Particular Service Squadron, con-
sisting of fjes- t-ellees armored eruis-

Toronto, taly 2.—"Surely it is no
possible in tine Province of Ontario thin
a man shall he labelled 'lunatic' without
due process of law," said Mr, John At
MeCellough, in closing his argument yeti
terday on an application to Mr. justie
Teetzel for the discharge from the Mimi
eo Asylum of David Hugh Gibson, of
Collingwoed.
Aecordign to Mr. McCullough, Gibson
is ail epileptic and nineteen months ago
was seized with a fit on the street in
Collingwood. Be was at once arrested
as a vagrant and locked up in A cell,
He resented his arrest very strongly
and became violent, with the result that
two doctors were celled -in and certified
that he was dangerous. On their certi-
ficates he was sent to Mimico Asylum,
and has been kept there ever since. His
sister. Mrs. Susanna Bell, of Coiling -
wood, has tried every means to have hint
discharged, as she wishes to take care
of him, but only yesterday succeeded in
baying the matter brought up in the
courts. Mr. McCullough claimed that
the detention of Gibson was improper,
and that the formalities imposed by
statute for the protection of the indi-
vidual had been altogether ignored.
Counsel urged the court to discharge
his client, as there was no evidence Of
any net of violence during the nineteen
months of his detention.
"Is there any one her who would
submit to such detention without
showing violence?" asked Mr. 'McCul-
lough.
"1 do not suppose there is," replied
his Lordship. "A sane person would be
apt to become very violent if thus de-
tained against his will."
"Quite so, my Lord," replied counsel,
"ant/ so was this unfortunate man when
first put in the cell at Collingwood, but
he has learned his lesson."
Mt, Justice Teetzel pointed out that
the affidavits of the medical men show-
ed Mit he was considered dangerous,
and also that mental deterioration had
beea going on for years in a marked de-
gree.

New York, July nee—The Iferald has
received the following despatch from
Nebraska City: The Missouri River last
night won a thirty years.' fight against
the town of Barney, NAL, when it swal-
lowed up the last house in the town
and carried it on down the river. The
house had been abandoned sonic time
ago, as the river bank mune nearer and
nearer its foundations.
Thirty years ago Barney was a thriv-
ing town. It was on the line of the
Burlington Railroad, and its prospects
were good, it being at that time as
large as Nebraska City itself. Then the
Missouri began cutting toward the
town, The houses were moved, abek
toward the hills until there was no
further room for removal, Then they
were washed away one by one and car-
ried down the stream.
The railroad did everything possible to
prevent the cutting of the stream, but
nothing stops the Missouri when it
starts. Where Barney once stood is
now the bed of the river, which is about
it mile wide at that point.
TfitY ARCA MARVEL.
BRITISH ARTILLERYMEN AT PETA-
WAWA PERFECT IN DRILL.
Petawawa Camp, Ont., despatch: The
British artillerymen have become the
marvel of the camp. Never has such
precision been deem as was exhibited by
the visimeig team in its first practice
g here. The guns used were of 4.7 calibre
_ and the range 0,000 yards.
e The men have been trained by the
instructors of the Royal Artillery. of
Great Britain, Not a man made a
. miss move during the two series fired,
f The commands were given by the of-
ficers in the fewest possible words,
just sufficiently loud. for the men for
whom they were intended to hear.
The guns went into action with
their detaehments as though the men
themselves were a part of the big ma-
chine. and with a. speed, accuracy and
perfection of drill that has never been
equalled in Canada.
Nearly everything was done by sig-
nal. The series was fired in about one -
halt the time usually occupied by the
Canadian team.
; The actual results of the firing will
, not be made public until all the com-
petitions are completed.
- The British team and Canadian com-
posite field artillery team, commanded
by Major Fe W. B. Morrison, of Ottawa,
fired their elementary series yesterday.
Crown Opposes Discharge.
As an illustration of the unreliabili-
ty of some medical testimony, Mr. Mc-
Cullough cited the case of a friend, now
of twenty-five years standing, who ten
years ago was on the point of being
placed in an asylum in the same twiner
as this man had been. The certificates
were all made out, when he appealed to
Mr. McCullough to save him. Action
was at once taken, and Mr. McCullough
succeeded, with the result that his friend
hap enjoyed ten years' liberty of which
it was sought to deprive him, and during!
that time he has not shown the slightesTi
sign of insanity.
"So opposed to illegal detention are
our laws," said Mr, McCullough, "that
many eminent judges have held that
nutn is justified in even committing
murder in an effort to secure his free-
dom."
Mr. Cartwright, Deputy Attorney -Gen-
eral, who appeared for the Government,
said that the authorities were only too
anxious to discharge patients when it
could be done safely. They had many
more applications for accommodation
than they could grant and had therefore
no interest in keeping persons in ens-
-Jody beyond the safety of the public,
and also of the detained person. In the
present ease the affidavits of the ex-
perts put in left no doubt as to the in-
advistibility of discharging the patient.
Mi. McCullough made some further
representation on behalf of his client,
but hi Lordship declined to take the
view of counsel that the order should
be granted. He considered the'ease too
serious and said he preferred that the
matter should be left to a. higher court
to accepting the authorities eited by
counsel.
Sister Defied Keepers.
Ae the patient was leaving the court
in the care of two keepers his sister,
Mrs. Bele Created a very painful scene
by seizing hint by the arm and defying
anyone to take him. For a considerable
time she held her brother and resisted
the efforts of the keepers to remove him.
She told how she had brought him up
from a boy, as lair lather in dying had
left him to her care, and. claimed that
he had always been a good lad. In any
ease she would not allow him to go back
to be brutally treated.
"Tell them, Hugh, how badly treated
you have been," she said to her brother.
The patient, who had till tbeh kept
perfectly quiet, then charged the asylum
authorities with very harsh treatment,
and .pointing to one of the keepers am
rumen him of throwing him Gibson,
down stairs on one OecaSiOtt and of treat-
ing him very roughly generally.
"As to my sanity," Concluded Gibson,
"I'M just as sane as any of you are;
you have no right to put me back in
the asylum."
At this point friends suceedeed in sep-
arating, the brother and sister and Gib-
son was led away, while Mrs. Bell broke
into 1 dbb-'
. d charging the
courts with gross injustice,
One of the sad features of the ease
appears to be that Mrs. Bell has sold her
little property to provide the funds with
whith to carry on the fight for her
brother's liberty.
