The theory of suicide is seetitee. by Coroner Ilaptiee and no inquest will be held. Mrs. Gilmour luol gone out driving after lunch with her niece, Miss Hendry: They left the house about 3 o'clock and returned, shortly after 4. Their attention was attracted by the strange 'actions of a collie dog, a pet of Mr. Gilmour. The animal was running up and down stairs in a frantic manner, and trying to at- tract their notice.. Mrs. Gilmour fol- lowed the dog which led her to the door of a room in the attic used by her husband as° a store room for guns, ,rifies, fishing tackle and other snorting paraphernalia. Entering the „room Mrs. Gilmour found her husbapd lying on his back on the floor, his head in a pool of blood, and a magazine rifle lying near him. Death must have been instantan- eous.

Lord ItoSobery Speaks of Mr. Chamber- lain's Latest Plan. London, May 20. -In a speech at Burnley, Lancashire, last night, Lord Rosebery, referring to Mr. Chamber- lain's speech at Birmingham, on May 15, in which the Colonial Sec- retary made an appeal for trade re- ciprocity within the British Empire, said that, before the tariffs were changed, the colonies ought to be re- presented in the Government of tho country, and he did not think that that idea was so impracticable as it was sometimes considered. Ho did not regard free trade as a part of the "sermon on the mount," but the question arose, whether it would be wise, without long and deep consideration, to change the fiscal system under which Great Britain had achieved her commercial success. Lord Rosebery dealt with Colonial Secretary Chamberlain's scheme in a very judicial manner, being careful neither to approve nor condemn it, but, on the whole, showing that he had no great sympathy with it.

This peak is a massive block of rock, as great in extent as, if not greater than, that which origi- nally fell away. It directly over- hangs the town, and in falling would destroy a part, if not the whole, of what remains of the town. Frank has been re -occupied and business generally resumed during the last nine days, but, as a result of the geologists' report, Premier ITaultain posted a warning Tuesday, notifying all of the danger to life in remain- ing, and the town is again depopu- lated.
