Me Caney, in the absence of Mr. Davin,

Mr, Foster -The Government is possessedi
of no informetion on that subject. illiberal
laughter.)
Mr. Laurier -Could not the Comptroller
of Customs give aorae information on the
subject ?
Mr. Foster -The answer has been given.
Mr. Wallace -I have not been asked yet.
Liberal cries of "Now, now."
Mr. McMullen asked what progress had
been made in the direction of getting the
embargo now placed upon the shipment of
live stock to England removed.
Mr. Foster said that the last cablegram
received on the subject was one from Sir
Charles Tupper, on the 17th inab., inwhioh
Ib was said that Mr. Gardner had stated in
the House of Commone the previous night
that the Government had arrived at the
conclusion that theywould not be juatified
In restoring the privilege of free -entry of
Canadian cattle until in possession of addi-
tional evidence, which a systematic examin-
ation, extending over a reasonable and suffi-
cienbeeriod, of the hums of cattle lareled for
slaughter at the ports would afford. He
tanated the result of such an examination
would confirm the view that the slaughter
at the ports could be waived, with reason-
able security against the importation of
diseased animals, in which case and in the
abeence of any unfavorable news from
Canada he moisidered he ahould be hound
under the statute to allow the free entry to
be resumed. He added that the examination
would nob be prolonged beyond the period
Lound necessary for the purpose, and that
the more numerous the cattle arriving the
ahorter would necessarily be the period of
examination.
Mr. Tisdale tnoved that, in view of the
early completion of time canal around St.
Mary's rapids upon the Canadian shore, and
the enlargement and increased depth of rear
canal system to the Atlantic seaboard, and
also of the ever-increasing volume of traffic
tending in that direceton, it is desirable
that Canada ehould have a complete and
uninterrupted waterway from the head of
Late Superior to the Atlantic Ocean through
her own territory; that in furtherance or
such object the Minister of Railways
and Canals should, 'with all reasonable de.
apatch, proceed to have made explorations
and surveys to ascertain the most direct
and feasible manner of connecting Lake St.
Clair or River St. Clair by canal with Lake
Erie through Canadian territory, and re-
port the same, withanapproxmasteestimate
of the cost thereof, to this House. Be
quoted the opinions of the leading eniel-
neere to prove the practicability of the
echeme he endorsed in his resolution.

I do not Mee back one single word of th
statement then made. •
Mr. Cagey -I did not want you to.
Mr. Clarke Wallace -You could not go
me to if you did want me to do so. I
repudiate the charge of disloyalty made
by the hon. member for Elgin against the
men whom I represented as holding certain
views.
Mr. Dawson said he was sorry the hon.
gentleman bad been obliged to confine that
the repeat of what he said was correct The
bill introduced to the British Parliament
had, already been put before the House of
Cotnmons. A recent election on that issue
had been hold. Thebill would have to pass
the House of Commons and the Home of
Lords and receive the assent of Her Majeoty
before it became law. While many persona
might consider the Home Rale Bill, if
passed, was unwise legislation, constitu-
tional action for its repeal could only belefb
for those who owned it. He believed the
speech of the hon. gentleman called for
more than passing notice. He moved in
eanendinent a resolutioa reciting the lan-
guage used by Mr. Wallace at Kingston,
and stated thab: "Whereas,Mr. Wailace
had admitted the accuracy othis report,
therefore the House deolaree it to be the
duty of all Her Majesty's anbjectsloyally to
submit to the law; that the constitution
contains means by which all grievances can
be redressed by constitutienel mettle& ;
that no clasps in the law should
be sought or be:aught about by resorting to
armed resistance, civil war' or physical
force; that any attempt todepose Her
Majesty in respect of any portion of her Em-
pire is untvarrantable and should receive
the uncompromising resistance of all loyal
citizens ; that the action of Mr. Wallace in
holding out the hope of active aid in resist-
ance to Her Majesty is deserving the
savereat censure of the Rouse, and if allowed
to pass unnoticed must place Canada under
the ecandalous imputation of being disloyal
to Her Majesty; and that it is the duty of
Parliament to repudiate the utterances of
Mr. Wallace lest the public might be led to
the erroneous conclusion that his views are
shared in by this body and endanger the
peace, order and good government through-
out Her fileijeaty's Dominion."."
Mr- Mills (Bothwell) contended that this
amendment did not mean a want of confi-
dence in the Government necessarily. He
quoted frorn precedent to show that several
Governments had treated an amendment to
go into supply not as motions of want of
confidence but had accepted them. Every
bon. geatlernan who voted against the
motion on which the House would be asked
to divide would commit himself to the prin-
ciples enunciated by the Comptroller of Cm-
torrn (Applause.)
Mr. Foster said he questioned the spirit
in aid& the motion was -made. He would
term it a mischievoue partymotion. (Hear,
i
bear.) There was nothing n the statement
of the hon. Comptroller of Customs about
armed resistance. The hon. member for

reasonable, had distorted tbe facts. No

Mr. Weldon again moved the Home in

Mr. Forbes did not see any reason why a
man who gave a bribe should be mearated
from the man who took it.
A °knee providiug that there timed be
an appeal from the Ain by means of a cer-
tiorari was struck out with the consent ol

ear. UoStigan said that in this country
we had often had to meet questions of this
embarrassing kind, and had generally fonnd
a solution of them. He felt on this question
a good deal like the leader of the House, who
very properly repudiated and refined retip on-
eibitiny for the utterances attributed to bit

challenged any Men itt this country to point

where elect that ever had the semblance of

here. He did nob believe the Comptroller
of Customs meant that he would take up
arms if Home Rule was carried. If he did
moan that and did not deny the meaning

would vote for the amendment,
Mr. Bergin thought the Government had
nothing to do with the exprerisions of hon.
gentlemen outside of the Hone, but
unfortunately the hon. Comptroller of Cus-
toms had repeated his language in the
Holum today. (Hear'hear.) He did not
look upon the emeecti of the hon. gentle-
man SS oat attempt to matte strife in the
country.
Mr. Davin, continuing, said that until
the flothre came to deal with this question

ler was a Minister of the Crown. He (the
Comptroller) was one of his leaden!, attd
was be to be Mild that he 'was not to be

Mt Davin quoted from the speech of
elm bad no right to look for their further

to epeak for the Irish Protestants. Con -
tinning, he mid he did not gee that if thie

have to resign. It was a want re coefidenee
in the Comptroller, not in the Government -
He was more inclined to believe this whou

tain members.
Mr. Wellavie•-The amertion of the hon.
• gentleman is absolutely false.
Mr. Speaker -The hon. gentlemen must
substitute some other word.
Mr. Wallace -His assertion is absolutely
unfounded.
Mr. Davin rose to speak' amid cries
from the Coneervativeniembera of "Name,"
"Name."
Mr. Davin -Must name ? I heard
him address his brother Protestant mem-
bers myself, and urge them to vote with
the Government, saying be could not do so
from his position, but must vote with the
minority.
Cries -Name others beside yourself.
Mr. Davin -I heard the hon. gentle-
man, and can give hirn the day and date
and place. If he had been a real man he
would have taken his political life in his
hand and have urged them to vote as he
did. He got credit for being one of the
noble thirteen.
Mr. Wallace -It is absolutely untrue. If
the hon. gentlemen will name any men, I
will bring them to prove the untruth of
what he states.
Mr. Davin -It occurred in room 46, when
the Protestant members of the Conaervative
'Arty were brought by Sir John Macdonald
to consider the vote on the Jesuit question.
I head him say it myself.
Mr. McKay rose in his place to sayhe had
never heard bhe Comptroller of Customs say
one word at that meeting as indicated by
the member for West Assmiboia.
Mr. Cleveland said he thought the
language used by the Comptroller of Cus-
toms at Kingston uncalled for and foolisb,
either for Protestant or Catholic, but in
the absence of the leader of the Govern-
ment he felt bound to vote for the Gov-
ernment.
• Mr, Casey said the hon. gentleman's (Mr.
Wallace's) speech at Kingston either meant
all he had said or nothing. That he had
meant all was evident by his confirmation
of it in the House to -clay, and thab he
meant to incite to rebellion and treason
against the Crown and Parliament of Eng-
land if the Home Rule measure should pass
was also evident. He hoped and believed
there were enough loyal men in Ireland,
however, to deal with any such fanatics As
threatened to rise in revolt.
Mr. Hearn said he would .have liked to
have seen the Coreptioller of Customs dis-
avow the disloyal sentiment, as he was asked
to do by the &name:Mineral.
Mr. Wallace -I beg to inform the hon.
gentleman that I never uttered a disloyal
sentiment.
A division upon Mr. Dawson s amend-
ment to the motion to go into Supply was
taken at 12 o'clock, midnight, and resulted
as follows: Ayes, 74 • nays. 105.
The following Gtivernment supporters
voted for the amendment : Memos. Coati-

A Stockholm cable says: The police have
arrested a school teacher named Ulrich-

nesen came to the city, he represented him-
self as an unmarried man. A woman and
two children appeared at, hits door one even-
ing after he had been here a few months,
but were not seenaf terwards. He explained
to the neighbors thab they were his
sister and children, who were on their
way- to their home in Helsingfore. &bee-
quently he married a young woman of this
city, and took her to another hones to live.
A few weeks ago she left him to return to
her home. Her father informed the police
that oba had found that her husband was a
murderer, and believed the skeletons of his
victims were buried in the cellar of the
house in which he was living. A search
was made, and the skeleton° of two children
and a woman were discovered. Mrs. Ulrich-
nesen said her husband confessed his crime
to her, but threatened to kill her in case
she told his secret.

following "There is a very prevalent idea
that eating tomatoes is an exciting came of

WAITING FOR THE OPEN SESAME."
Inside the carriages the diatinguished
ladies bound for the Palace as usual de-
voted most of their attention to current
literature and enthralling romance, caeca-
sionally recruiting themselves with light
refreshments, bottled tea and &tatted coffee
beneath the shadow of enormous bouquets
of lilies of the valley, Parma violets, Mal-
i -liaison carnations, orchids and niphatos
roses with which they were surrounded.
Both Mimi and carnations were as popular
as they were last year, so many were the
nosegays displaying their sweet and grace-
ful therms. The band of the Ilfe Guards
diseoursed sweet melodies in front of the
Palace, and thousands of the populace
gathered round to listen and also to criti-
cize the fair ocoupants of the vehioles

As the hour of 3 p. m. approached, the

to arrive. The Duke of Edinburgh dashed

quiet without pushing, they would be passed
up in order without any personal injury. It
