Extremists would do well to con Bider cone important evidences adduc- ed by the Roman Catholic Bishop of Dakota as to the result of the prohibi tionist policy in that stat -o. The Bishop is informed by wholesale liquor dealers that their Bales are nearly three times greater than before. Private drinking at home is enormously in• creased. Travellers who cannot pur- chase driuk at the hotels carry with thein un their journeys largo supplies. Tho Bishop, while notexpressitlg either approval or disapproval of prohibition as a theory nevertheless pronounces it in practice a flat failure in North Dakota, ''If," he says, "tile people want prohibition, let them insist on its enforcement ; if they do not want it, let them have tho courage to say so, and do away with it, and in its place give us some means of regulating the traffic." The facto indicated by the Bishop furnish another proof of the wisdom of moderato counsels. A former resident of Mitchell, writep from Woonsocket, R. I. as follows: "I suppose you have heard of the fin- ancial panic in this country. All branches of busiuess are depressed. The large manufacturers are closing their door's, until more money is in oil, culation. A great many of the woolen mills have shut down indefinately, on account of not having ordure, but most of the cotton mills have lots of orders, but can't get money from the banks to pay for labor, and have had to shut down also. Nearly all of the banks, to protect themselves, have decided to pay out no money, except in sums under 850, without 60 or 90 days notice. Banks are closing their doors by the dozen all over the country, and people who have deposits are on nettles for fear of losing their money. Printing has gone to pieces with the other trades, and there are more idle printers now 111 the east than ever known before. People are flocking from here and New England to. Canada by the hundreds, which may produce an over pro- duction of laborore and skilled mechanics in your provinces. Do the Grits still talk free trade with this country ? If they do, they have little idea what such a result would lead to." Goderich Township. Too late for last week. Harvesting is prooeedingnicely in this township.

By an Order•in-Council adopted by filo Federal Government on July 7th, the questions to be submitted to the. Supreme Court of Canada in the Mani- toba school case have been formally re. vised, and they now appear as fullowe : 1. Is the repeal referred to in the said memorials and petitions, and as• sertod thereby such an appeal as is ad miscible by sub-sectiou 3 of section 93 of the British North America Act of 1867, or by sub -section .2 of section 22 of the Manitoba Act 33 Victoria (1870), chapter 3 (Canada)? 2. Are the grounds set forth in the petitions and memorials such as may be the subject of appeal under the authority of the sub sections above re- ferred to or either of them? 3. Does the decision of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, in the cases of Barrett vs. the City of Winni- peg, and Lagan va. the City of Winni- peg, dispose of or conclude the appli- cation for redress based on the conten- tion that the rights of the Roman Cath- olic minority, which ace. ued to them after the union under the statutes of the Province had been interfered with by the two statutes of 1890 complained of iu the said petitions and memorials? 4. Docs sub -section 3 of Election 93 of -the British North American Act of 1867 apply to Manitoba? .5. Has His Excellency the Governor- General -in -Council power to snake the declarations of remedial. orders which are asked for in the said memorials and petitions, assuming the material facts to be as stated therein, or has His Ex ct;lleucythe{Governor-General•in•Coun- cil any other jurisdiction in the prem I8e8I 6. Did the acts of Manitoba relating to education, passed prior to the session of 1890, confer on or continue to the minority a "right or privilege in relit tion to education," within the meaning of sub -section 2 of section 22 of the Manitoba Act, or establish a " system of separate or dissentient schools" with- in the meaning of sub section 3 of sec- tion 93 of the British North America Act of 1867, if said section be found to be applicable' to Manitoba ; and if so, did the two acts of 1890 complained of, or either of them, affect any right or privilege of the minority in such , a manner that an appeal will lie there- under to the Governor -Gone' al -in• Couucil ? A HORRIBLE FATE. FIRE ON THE STEAMER 'SAN JUAN' RESULTS IN NEARLY TWO HUN— DRED DEATHS. Further particulars of the burning of the steamer 'San Juan' ofl'the Chinese coast were received last week at San Francisco. The S fanish steamer 'San Juan' left Hong Kong for Manilla with a full crew and all the Chinese that could bestowed away. Fire was dis- covered between decks. Two life boats were destroyed by the flames and the others were capsized by the Chinese. Sharks made .abort work of these, and in this manner the second engineer, steward and second officer lost their lives. On the fire being discoveredalmostall the Chinese ran up the rigging and other high places. As the fire increas- ed in intensity tho poor wretches drop- ped on the deck and into the fire. Others jumped overboard and were de- voured by sharks. Those whu reach• ed one of the boats filled it to excess; and the sharks leaped into the air to snatch their prey. The panic was dreadful. The Chinese huddled together and filled the air with their moans. The fore and aft parts of the burping vessel were full of people imploring assistance and the central portion of the vessel was like the orator of a volcano. The sharks came in droves and hundreds of them could be seen around the blazing steamer. A fireman succeeded in reaching one of the overturned boats and righted her. He then went to the others and managed to get two more of them on an even keel. They were kept at a distance, and everybody who wanted to get into them had to run the gauntlet of sharks. In this way ninety-eight persons escaped and reached shore after sixteen hours of bard rowing. They at anee telegraphed for assistance and the steamer 'San Antonio' was eontiout. When she reached the derelict three Chinese more dead than alive were found in the rigging. The' masts were steel. This made the total flayed 101. Including officers and crew there were 283 people on board, eo the aharka and flames must have devoured 182. The 'San Juan' was towed into Manilla on fire.
