BLASTING POWDER CONVICT ATTEMPTS TO BLOW : UP PRISON. Throws Them Into Corridor And Only Ome Explodes--Hole Is Torn In The Flooring, Causing a General Panic--Authorities Are Silent. Montreal, July R--An attempt was made to wreck a portion of the St. Vineent de Paul penitentiary, with hohe, but the scheme failed. There was but slight damagé Lo the build ing itself, though the lives of many of the inmates were placed in' jeopardy, The bombs were thrown from the wp per range in the south wing and fell m the lower corridor. The explosion caused intense excitement, and there was a great uproar. The occupants of the cells were astir at once and their cries added to the confusion, Only one of the three bombs exploded. The use of blasting powder leads to the mssomption that it was obtained by stealth from the quarries, worked by the penitentiary. Whether the ol, jot of the party or parties who threw the bombs was escape or a de rire for revenge, is not known, gnd it is said that the investigation has so far failed to reveal either the authors or their intentions. At Ottawa, it is said the department has not heard of the affair, Reports received here from different parts of the province of Quelen are to the effect that this summer's hay corp is phenomenal and will exceed any- thing in the history of the province. A number pf the members of Mont real stock exThange have made appli- cation to have the afternoon and Satarday boards adjourned during July and August. The matter will be voted on on Friday.

They bave departed for their homes, but sa§ that they will all meet again in a short time under different circumstances, PITCHED THROUGH A HOLD. Trooper Gotro Killed And Others Injured.

Importation Of Asiatics--This Will Not Be Resorted To If Possible To Obtain Whites By Immigration, London, July 8--~"It seems proba ble," says the Times correspondent at Johannesburg, "there will be permas ent dificulty in making the supply of native labor keep pace with the grow ing requirements of the rani. The iw portation of Asiatics is politically most undesirable, and South Aircan opinion will only tolerate it as » last resort, when gill other expedients have failed. The scarcity of native lalcr has already awakened the ingenwicy and mspurceiulness of mine managers, and they have effected great economies in the use of natives. The process has not yet reached its limits, and new mechanical appliances, bettr or ganization, and increased officiency may lead to a great reduction in the estimate of the number of natives which will uitimately be required. If the deficiency remains, it must be supplied by the increased employment of white labor. If natives were not present, the fields might be worked Ly whites exclusively as satisfactorily as the fields of Colorado. The only ol stacle to larger employment of whites is a prejudice--usual in coun tries. with colored populations-- against unskilled labor gs beneath the dignity of whites. The climate of the rand is perfectly suitable for the un- ployment of white labor. An experi- ment is now being made of offering to discharged soldiers employment on surface work of certain mines. If the experiment is successful, it may mean inenlealable henefits to the country politically and economically." A BODY FOUND At Milton Island--Likely To Be George Marlow. On Tuesday morning E.
