"If a horse is coming up a hill, you see hie ears first." "The shadow of the moon on water at night is always round." "Water never flows upward, it al - 'rays Sows downward." "If the earth was fiat or square, we 'would always be touching the sky.

Ottawa, Oct, 7. -The House con- tinued its rapid disposal of tho sup- plementary estimates yesterday, dis- posing in Conlnlitteo of Supply of 181 items, amounting to $934,020. These were the river and harbor ap- propriations for Nova Scotia, Prince Ddward Island, Now Brunswick and Ontario. Little progress was made early in the day owing to objections by several Ontario Conservatives to eastern expenditures, a position for which they wore indirectly rebuked by Mr. R. L. Borden and warmly challenged by Liberals from Nova Scotia. Tho progress made gives color to the hope of an early proro- gation, which is further strengthened by Mr. Fielding's statement at ad- journment that whether or not the audit act will be proceeded with is still a matter of consideration. The Railway Subsidies. The Minister of Finance last night laid before the House railway sub- sidies calling for an expenditure of at least $12,092,800. In each case, for the purpose of reaching an esti- mate, the subsidy is placed at the minimum rate of $3,200 per utile, but in many instances tho cost will reach $6,400 per utile, the maximum amount allowed for difficult railway work. There is a total of $150,000. asked in aid of bridges, and if this ho added to the main suns the grand total of proposed expenditure will be at least $12,242,800.

Dickenson, For the United States, Con- tinues His Aiuument. London, Oct. 7.-(0. A. P.) -Mr. Dickenson yesterday before the Alas- kan Commission argued that the lino should be drawn frown the head of Portland Canal along the valley, continuing In a general direction along the canal until the 56th par- aIlel is reached. He declared it was the duty of the Tribunal to define the meaning and application of the words "coast," "ocean," "sinuosi- ties" and the like, otherwise there is no use of their being here. He discussed article seven of the treaty of 1825, and said Russia knew that England claimed territory lying south of 54.40 latitude as well as the United States, but did not know which had the butter claim, so she took reciprocal privileges there from both to make sure. Ile argued that the term "north- west coast of America" means tho whole coast. The British contention limits it to the lisiero. He than took up and discussed what he termed the crucial question of the moaning of tho word "coast," and argued that all the negotiators of the treaty of 1825, Canning, Be- got, Polly, the Russians, everybody, considered it to mean the whole coast, not a coast composed partly of land and partly of a lino drawn across the water. Their use of the expression "sinuosities of the coast," he said, put this beyond doubt. Tho Commission adjourned at 1 p. m. South Afrienn' War Modals.

Glasgow, Oct. 7. --Whatever may be the opinion held regarding the great question which Mr, Chamberlain has raised, or the probable issue of his campaign, it is generally admitted that he has opened it in a masterly manner. For nearly two hours last night he had a vast and enthusiastic audience absorbed. As though in- spired by the knowledge that tike practical collapse and breakup of the Unionist party left him in sole pos- session of the field, he spoke with more than his customary energy and persuasiveness. It was an inspiring scene within St. Andrew's Hall, where he deliver- ed his speech. Every corner of the auditorium was packed with a crowd cheering, singing and waving hand- kerchiefs as Mr. Chamberlain went to the platform. A distinguished com- pany of peers and members of the House of Commons were present. He was greeted at the close with a great demonstration. The points of his speech attracting remarkable atten- tion wore his eulogy of Mr. Balfour; his representation of the coming struggle as one greater in its conse- quences than tho Boer war; his de- scription of the American tariff as an abomination. Au unusual event took place in the Court of Appeal, Toronto, Friday, when: the judges took the evidence of Mir.. F. A. Hall, of Perth', in the suit arising out of the will of the late John A. McLaren, a distiller, of Perth, who died in 1901. The action was brought by J. A. Stewart, Mayor of Perth, to establish( the authenticity of the will of his uncle, by which he was left the bulk of to estate worth in the neighborhood of $150,000. The Attor- ney -General, on behalf of the province, maintained that J. A. McLaren had. left neither will nor legal heirs and therefore the province became entitl- ed' to his property. .A. copy of the will alleged 10 be lost was produced at the trial, and Judge MeieMahon; held it to be a true copy, refusing to bear the evidence of F. A. "tall, who ,claimed the right of a bar- rister to keep secret consultations be- tween himself and client. , pa appeal,"the court ordered Mr. Mall to appear Friday and give evi- dence. 'Mr. Hall told .pf having two conversations with the testator in 1889 or 1900, in which he had told him he had "blocked" out his will, but that he bad not yet decided the amount to gol no Ms. Stewart. in his examina- tion by Nr: Btlake Mr. Hall admitted that the relations existing between John A. McLaren and the father of J. A. Stewart were not of a friendly na- ture. , , (The parsons interested, in the will and the amounts to which they are entitled under it are: Frank Walker, confidential clerk, $5,000; Mss. McIn- tyre. a sister, '$1,500, and $350 a year for life; Barbara Stewart, $5,000; An - 1 gus McNabb, $4,000; Alexander, Frank and Jennie Stewart, of Cleveland, each 1$1,500 ; Minnie Hamilton, $5,000 ; Hugh Cameron, his brother, land in Ren- frew.

Gives nova $esd-011e Birmingham, Oet, 7, - Joseph Chamberlain sot out front here yes- terday horning on hie fiscal cam- paign, alnld every demonstration of good -will from his fellow-townsntsn. Hundreds gathered at the railroad station and alternately sang "For WS a Jolly Good Fellow' and shouted "Good old Joey" and "The country's with you." Vain appeals were ]Rade for a speech, but the only expressed opinion that could be ex- tracted from this former Secretary for the Colonies was ht reply to con- gratulations on the appointment of hie son, Austen, as Chancellor of the Exchequer, when Mr. Chamberlain admitted that there were a "lot of aifllculties before the party," but he thought they would "get through with them all right." We, Chamber- lain accompanied her husband on his speech -making tour, which began at Glasgow yesterday. Chamberlain's Fiscal Plan, Mr. Chamberlain stated his plan of fiscal reform briefly as follows: He proposed to put a low duty, not exceeding 2 shillings (48 cents) a quarter on foreign corn, but none on corn from the British possessions. He proposed no tax on maize, partly because it formed the food of some of the very poorest among tho population, and partly because it .was raw •material as feeding stuff. He proposed a corresponding tax on flour, and he would give special preference to the miller with the ob- ject of re-establishing one of our ancient industries and of preventing Yt rush from the country to tho town, and also of placing corn, offal and feeding stuffs more cheaply within the possession of the farmer. A small tax of about 5 por cent. on foreign meat and dairy products would bo imposed, excluding bacon, which was the food of so many of the poorest population. Lastly, he proposed to give a sub- stantial preference to the colonies on winesd n fruits. a Some Great Remissions. Against these increases he pro- posed some great remissions. He proposed to take off three-quarters of the duty on tea, half they duty on sugar, with corresponding reductions upon cocoa and coffee. The net result of these impositions and remissions would be that tho town artisan's food would according to the most elaborate calculation, cost him two pence half penny (five cents) less per week than it did at present, while that of the agricultur- al laborer would cost him .two pence (four cents) less, but if, as he be- lieved, a great part of tho tax 'on food would be paid by the foreigner, there would be a reduction in the cost of food, both for the artisan and the agricultural laborer. The loss to the Exchequer, he es- timated at £2,6000,000. A moder- ate duty of 10 per cent. on manu- factured goods would give to the Exchequer £9,000,000 a year, and he would make use of that for re - Mission of taxes. Treatment of the Colonies. The question was, what would the colonies say? Ho believed they would treat generously any offer Great Britain might make. On this point he said: "Were we to lose the colonial as we have lost our foreign trade, we should arrive at the parting of tho ways. If the opportunity is not seized now it will not recur. 'Canada will fall to the level of the United States, Australasia to the level of Canada, and South Africa to the level of Australasia, and that would be the beginning of a general decline which would rob us of our most im- portant trade." Mr. Chamberlain said he believed that the colonies "are prepared to meet us in return for a very moder- ato preference. They would reserve to us the trade we already enjoyed, would also arrange their tariffs in the future in order not to start in- dustries in competition with those already in existence in the mother country, and not only would they enable us to retain our trade with them, but they would give us prefer- ence on all trade done with them by our foreign competitors." The Colonial Trend. COUNCIL TO ADVISE QOVERNMENTS. suggested by Itrl.ish M.P.. to Promote Imperial Union. London, Oct. 7.-C.A.P.)-Alfred Emmott, M.P., addressing his consti- tuents at Oldham, said: "The Cana- dians have told us thoy do not wish us to pay more for food in order to buy it front the colonies if it is against the interests of Britain. The Western fanners of Canada are free traders. As it is obviously to the interests of the manufacturexts of Canada not to give up tho protection they have, and there is not e. suffic- ient increase of trade to be got train the colonies to pay for the sacrifices we should have to make, the only way to arrive at closer connection with the colonies is through an Im- perial council to advise the govern- ments of the various colonies what is best to bo done to promote closer Imperial union." Denounced Chamberlain. London, Oct. 7.-(C. A. P.) -The Miners' Federation, representing 350,000 members, in session, de- nounced Chamberlain's policy, The resolution of the Trades Union Con- gress of Canada was endorsed, and the chairman declared the trades unionists in Canada to be the biggest party in the Dominion. :shot Canada Will Do. London, Oct. 7.-(C.A.P.)-The Irish Times states: "Tho Canadian ministry have informed Mr. Cham- berlain for tho second timo that if no reciprocity is given by England they will reconsider their position and the preference already given." No Mandate From Canada. London, Oct. 7.-(C.A.P.)-Dr. Goldwin Smith writes to a free trade union: "You may rest assured,' I believe that no mandate in favorof Chamberlain's scheme is likely to conte from Canada." He had spoken with many colonists who believed that the present colon- ial relations could not be permanent. They must either be drawn closer to- gether or they would drift apart. He believed that it was only by a commercial union and reciprocal pre- ference that they could lay the foun- dation of a federation of She Em- pire, to which thoy all looked as a brilliant possibility. He wished to repeat explicitly that he did not wish to tax raw materials used in British manufactures. He maid he proposed nothing that would add ono farthing to the cost of living of any work- inemun or of any Wilily in the country. ConelndlaX Wards.

It now transpires that W. G. Elli- ott of tho Portland Cement Co. is prepared to say that Kennedy ap- plied at the office for work on the day before the murder and that his impression is there was a slight trace 1 of blood on one of Kennedy's hands. Mayor Halloran has received a let- ter from a person in Albion, Mich., who signs himself "Yours truly." Tho writer, under the date of Oct. 2, states that Kennedy is not the guilty party and claims that a man who greatly resembles Kennedy probably committed the deed and is now walking around in perfect free- dom. He implies that the murderer purposely disguised himself in order to appear similar to Kennedy. The writer makes reference to lynch law and the manner in which many inno- cent men have been wrongfully pun- ished, and concludes by urging His Worship to use his best endeavors in Kennedy's behalf.
