Judge Teetzel at Toronto on Saturday
granted a winding -up order of the York
County Loau Company, on the applica-
tion of Scott & Scott, acting for certain
shareholders. This takes the matter
completely out of the hands of the share-
holders and throws the big estate into
liquidation. The National Trust Com-
pany were appoiuted temporary liquida-
tors.
From latest returns from Saskatche-
wan it seems that Premier Scott's Gov-
ernment has bean returned by a good
workiug majority. Premier Scott, in
discussing the result of the Saskatchewan
election, said: "Oa the whole I see no
reason for dissatisfaction with the out-
come of the contest, although some ex-
cellent candidates have gone down under
very narrow majorities It was always
conceded that Sasketcltewau Liberals
had a much more difficult fight to con-
front than had the Alberta Liberals, yet
had it not been for the widespread and
distorted use made of Archbishop
Laugevin's memorandum we should have
cases the jury returned a "true hill" and
in the third. reported "no bill." The
grand jury also visited the jail Ont; re-
ported everything there as satistactory
and expressed their regret that no pro-
vision was made for defrayiug the ex-
pense of the grand jury's visiting the
douse of refuge. His Hunor Judge Doyle
also expressed himself to the same effect.
A. J. Goldthorpe was foreman of she
gruud jury.
The case agaiust Jasper Brindley was
tried on Wednesday and the jury return-
ed a verdict of "guilty." Brindley was
sentenced this wowing to pay a fine
of $25, and costs amounting CO $42.50.

Hugh Rutherford, elder, and associated
with them were Rev. G. I. Craw and
Rev. S. M. Whaley, the former pastor.
Mr. Craw begins his new pastorate under
the most anspicsons circumstances, for-
tunate in being the sole and unanimous
choice of both congregations. He is a
young man of excellent parts, who has
i proved his ability In the class room and
his capability in the field of labor to
!which he has been called; but if heredity
i and environment count for anything he
I is sure to succeed. The youngest son of
i the late Rev. George Craw, he has three
' brothers in the ministry, the Rev. Dr

Toronto, Dec 19.—There was a rnu of
9.1 cars of stock at the City Cattle Mar-
ket to -day, with 1,727 head of cattle,
1,916 sheep and lambs, 950 hogs and 64
calves.
The general tone of the market was
not so active as last week, nor was there
the same class of fancy cattle to be seen
such as commanded attention and high
prices for the Christmas trade This
business was practically coucluded lass
week, the local butcher trade being fair-
ly well supplied. To -day's market. how-
ever, was fair for the class of cattle of-
fering, and prices were little, if any,
easier. Buying was brisk enough to
clonr almost everything out at any early
hour.
