A GO0D THING Ex-Mayor Prefontaine De- scribes The Situation REAL MOTIVE WHICH ACTUATED THE HON. J. ISRAEL TARTE. He Wanted to Show His Power to Hon. Mr. Fielding, Who May be the Successor Some Day of Sir Wilfrid Laurier -- Little Following in Quebec Province. Montreal, Oct. 23.--To the Witness ex-Mayor Prefontaine said that Sir Wilfrid Laurier will have no trouble in getting good men to fill the place of the minister of public works. It has been said in regard to himself that he would not do because he was a pro- tectionist. Well, he always believed in a reasonable amount of protection, and he did so at this moment, but at the same time he was loyal to the re- vision which had been made in 1897, and which did not pretend at the time to represent a finality. "Might 1 ask this question, Mr. Pre- fontaine ? It has been stated on the -street that you said you believed that the motive of Mr. Tarte in starting the the high tarifi campaign was to be found in a compact made with Sir Wilirid Laurier before the latter left for England--a compact by which Mr. Tarte was to prepare the country for a revision of the tariff, which was to take place in the interest of the manu- facturers. Is that true?" Mr. Prefontaine laughed. "Nothing of, the kind. I never said it. I never thought it. But I will say that a pol- itical friend of mine said so at the Windsor Hotel. 1 denied it. I honor and love Sir Wilfred above, any other man. [ believe him to be the soul of honor: but if he had stooped to such a thing I would consider him a des- picable man. Absurd--utterly prepos- terous. Sir Wilfrid is not the man to stoop to such a thing." "Have you, then, as a matter of fact, Mr. Prefontaing, sought to dis- cover. the real motive of Mr. Tarte ? He must have known he was actine an unconstitutional part. He must have foreseen the conseauence." "Well, there has been a motive as- cribed to Mr. Tarte in the premises which I think I may mention, though, mind you, I do not say that I sub- scribe to it. Mr. Tarte and 1 are not friends, nor could Sir Wilfrid Laurier, with all his tryino, make us such, but I intend to be just. The motive is al- leged to be this: Mr. Fielding was to succeed Sir Wilfrid. That was under- stood. That has been disc 1 bv the party, and, indeed, settled. Mr. Tarte wo!l knew this. Of course, this was not to take place to-morrow. But Mr. Fielding was to have the right of suc cession. Well, Mr. Tarte, in order to impose himself upon Mr. Fielding, in himself indispensable, campaign so that he might be able to show his power or to hold him up with a threat, the same as he held up Sir John Macdon- ald in' regard to the McGreevy affair. If Mr. Fielding did not give him a place then there would be war, and Mr. Tarte would have the munitions of war. That has been stated." "Do you think that the removal of Mr. Tarte, giving him absolute free- dem to gravitate to.the conservatives and making, doubtless, a following, will have a disorganizing effect upon the party ?" "On the contrary, T unhestitatinelv say that the removal of Mr. Tarte will make for the styengthening of the party, and especially in this province where 1 verily believe Mr. Tarte has not a single partizan. "You mav re- member the time Mr. Tarte was tak- en into the cabinet. Well; I have been order to make works out this all mv life upon the best of terms with the financial and industrial in terests of this country as a public man should be who desired the pros- peiity of the<country. When the liber- als were returned to power in [S96, these interests, or the representatives of these interests, expressed to me this feeling : 'We respect. Sir Wilfrid; we believe him honest; but. there are certain elements in the cabinet which we distrust." And this distrust has never ceased." > "It was thought that Mr. Tarte had great power in Quebec ?" "An utter fallacy. He has no follow- ing whatever. Why is the government so strong in Quebec ? Simply because of the personality of the premier. Tt is not too strong an expression to sav that Sir Wilfrid is actually beloved by the mass of the people:in this pro- vince. And why ? Because of his mer- sonal character; because of his per- fect sincerity; because of his high sense of honor. That is why the party stuck togeth.r inthis province; that is why he received a majority." "You have noticgd Mr, Tarte's ex planation this morning?" "Yes, but it proves nothing. He talks of advocating a policy of Cana da for the Canadians. Well, that is only repeating a phrase. Sir Wilfrid Laurier has béen pursuing a nolicy of Canada for the Canadians. Look at the country. Look at the prosperity we enjoy. Look at the stand he took in recard to the question of imperial contribution. He said: 'We will 'strenp then out own: defences: we will lich such forces as" will make but our policy must be, t Ia for the Can \ iN he In eds hel not vodragoed 1D expens takines with «which we have us 1 Jl things, Ce t 1 cour cern. We will work out our « tinv as a primary moting atino force.' "This was the hich poliv whith § Wilfrid enunciated. Mr. Tarte talks | of a hich wall, ageinst the Americans. | Well, that is stupid, for there are "Manning, sent to the relief of KINGSTON, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 23. 1902. things which we must get from the Americans. 1 believe, in this country, in a moderate degree of protection, and 1 believe we will never increase our industries if we do not offer a little help at the start. And I mav say that when I appeared in Maison- neuve 1 frankly told the people--the people of the industiial suburb--that I was in favor of protection to a mod- erate degree. And I may tell vou more --that I had the authority, of the pre- mier for saying so. Nav, more--I had his promise that if ®here was anv doubt on that score he would come to the division himself and sav so. But then, that does not mean that the re- vision which took place was not sat- isfactory, and should not be lived up "But Mr. Tarte states that he said the same thing in the presence of Sir Wilfrid and was not rebuked ?"' "Yes, but to speak in the presence of the other ministers is one thing ; to start a campaign on vour own account, to go up and down the coun- try advocating a policy contrary to the mind of the cabinet--that is verv different." "I do not believe in the present ta- riff as a finality; no man who thinks could do that, for the circumstances of the country must be taken into ac- count; but Mr. Tarte knew very well --I may say this much without bhe- traying the secrets of the partv cau- cus--that it was not the intention of the government to proceed with a re- this point, but I must refrain. "Mr. Tarte says he has the country with him in his new campaion ?" "Well, perhaps he can prove it. What I know is that the countrv has ex- pressed its decided approval of the pre- sent policy of the government. Per- hans we were a little disappointed in the census, but aside from that look at the prosperity of the countrv- look at the development which has taken place since Sir Wilirid reached power. A party which=has done so much has no reason to fear anvthine which Mr. Tarté mav sav or do. Of course, the campaign will be continued in his vaner, but 1 have no fear whatever oi the result." ---- May Join Mr. Tarte. Toronto, Oct. 23.--The prevails in well-informed circles that William Maclean, proprietor of the World, is a strong supporter of Hon. J. I. Tarte, and will join him in an ef- fort to form a party whose platform will 'be high protection. Mr. Maclean and his paper would labor in Ontario, while Mr. Tarte would direct the fight in Quebec, through La Patrie and his newly-purchased = English paper, the Mercury, of Quebec. The party of which Messrs. Tarte and Maclean would he the leaders would he, according to the rumors in circulation, materially asalsted by in- dividual manufacturers and the Manu- facturers' Association. " It is also stated that Hon. Mr. Tarte will very shortly become a resi- dent of Toronto. He has decided, it appears, to- live for five or six months in the Queen City. "TORONTO'S FUEL SUPPLY. Considerable | Worry About it. Toronto, Oct. 23.--It i§ asserted in certain circles that local fuel dealers have entered into conipact to prevent supplies of wood, purchased by the council, from reaching the citv in anv reasonable time. Mayor Howland savs that there is no evidence to substanti- ate the charge, but he declares that if the city is kept out of its wood, much longer an investigation will be insti- tuted. - The controllers, at a private conference, decided to notify the con- tractors that all supplies must be de- livered within the next ten davs, or the city will refuse to receive the wood. Mavor Howland has received a cable stating that the steamer carry- ine the Welsh admiralty coal had met with an accident and would not sail before to-morrow. There Is RETIRED SAFELY.

Regarded as a Rebuff to the Rose- beryites--The Election Was Fought on the Education Question -- Enthusiasm Over the Result. | London, Oct. 23.--An election was held, yesterday, at Davonport, to hill the vacancy in the House of Com- mons, caused by the death of Edward J. Morton, who was a liberal. The candidates were James Lockie, union- ist, who received 3,785 votes, and" T. A. Brassey, liberal-impenialist, who received 2,757. This is the first unicn- ist gain in a bye-election since the government took "office. The election Lockie is regarded as a renulf to the Roseberyites. Mr. Brassey is an original member of the Liberal league; which was started by seces- sionists from the regular liberal fede- ration. Bitter Disappointment. New York, Oct. 23.--The Tribune's London cable says: The liberal party is bitterly disappointed at the result of Devonport election. T. A. Brassey,' son of Lord Brassey, was a strong candidate, and even" his political op- ponents expected him to win. The election was fought on the education question and it has resulted in a sur- prising victory for the unionists. The scere in the house of commons when the figures were made known was remarkable. The members crowd- ed into the lobby and the greatest en- thusiasm prevailed among the sup- porters of the government. Since 1892 the constituency had been repre- wsented by two liberal members, H. FE. Kearley and 13. J. C. Morton. I'rom 1855 until 1892 the constituency was held by the conservatives. Premier Balfour's superior finesse is revealed in every fresh bout with Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman over the appointment of a day for the discus- sion of Irish grievances and the mov- ing of a vote of censure. Lord Rose- bery, standing outside the tabernacle, no longer worships the home rule gods and Premier Balfour wishes to identify Sir Henry Campbell-Banner- man with the fortunes of the Irish party and thereby widen the breach between the liberal factions. The pre- mier's eagerness to name a day near- ly carried the liberal leader off his feet. Premier Baliour's resources as a tactidian do not, however; make up for Mr. Wyndham's defects of manner. When confronted with a howling mob of Irish members the chief secretary of Ireland is excitably and easily drawn and flurried. The, 'Times' discovery that Russian progress in the evacuation of Man- churia has involved the permanent concentration of troops along a well constructed railway, traversing = the populous province, is discussed quietly by the English press. The truth is frankly admitted that Manchuria is little less than a province of the Rus- sian empire, and that European pow- ery have been completely duped by a transparent device for prolonging the occupation under the guise of a-mili- tary retreat from chief cities. Nothing is said about the Anglo&® man treaty agreement, which pledged © the . two powers to an hypothetical consulta- tion in certain emergencies, nor about the Anglo-Japanese alliance which commits Pritain to an attack upon Fran-e if the republic joins Russia in a campaign against Japan. The suc- cess of Russian diplomacy, at Pekin, is conceded and a similar triumph is forecasted in the castern Mediterran- can. The tradition of Palmerston and Beaconsfield times, that Russia was inevitably England's eheiny has ceas- ed to be sacred. The Times' corres- pondents on' the continent have taken another line for many months, and have gradually convertel English ofinion. The new view iz that Ger: many is in a favorable position for menacing British prestige and that Britain has evervthing to pain sand little to lose bv accommodating her self to Russian intrigue and progress, and by declining to lend moral sup- port to German diplomacy, VALUES HER LOVE AT $80,000. Miner Sues Man Who Weds An- other. Mankato, Minn.,- Oct. 23.--A senca- tion was caused here yesterday when Mrs. Lizzie H. Phelps, owner of a millinery establishment, began an ac- tion in the district court against Les ter Patterson to recover £30,000 dam ages jor alleged breach of promise of marriace. Mr. Patterson was recently married to a wealthy widow at Los Angeles, Cal. Mrs. Phelps alleges that she and Patterson were engaged for two vears and that she was greatle astonished when the California wed- ding took place. -- r-- ¢ The Bearded Lady " Dies.

Congress of the Fmpire Assembles at Montreal. Montreal, Oct. 23.--lhe fifth con gress of Chambers of Commerce of the empire will be held in Montreal next year. At a meeting. of the council of the board of trade a letter was read from the London Chamber of Com- merce stating that the invitation of the Montreal board had been most cordially accepted by the organizing committee of the congress and by the council of tke London chamber. The date named by the Montreal board of the congress is August 17th, 1903; and it is most likely that the invitations to be issued by the London chamber will be for that date. The Canadian Pacific railway will again go into the German market' for steel rails next year. This year the company found it advantageous to purchase about 25,000 tons from Ger- man mills. * Recently the company placed, through » Montreal agent, an- other order for 15.000 tons, to be de- livered next year on the Pacific coast. English mills also sold a quantity this year to the Canadian Pacific. CAT IN FOUNDATION. Had Been Walled up For Six Weeks Without Food. Chicago, Oct. 23.---Strange noises coming apparently from a supposed solid brick foundation in the morth- east corner of the new postoffice build- ing have been puzzling workers upon the structure for the past six weeks. Yesterday the mystery was solved by the removal of a portion of the foun- dation and the discovery of a black and white cat secreted ina space barely large enough to permit of the entrance of its body. As a layer of rock was removed the cat leaped out anl three workmen who stood about fell back in surprise. Dav after dav peculiar sounds were heard about the foundation stone and workmen had become superstitious, - refusing ta work about the stone. Finally the fore- man decided to clear up the mvsterv and ordered a huge stone removed. Then the cat, almost starved, leaped out and made its escape. SAVED BY RAIN. Heavy Downpour Prevents a Dis- astrous Blaze. Buffalo, Oct. 23.--Fire last night de- stroyed the freight shed of the Union Steamboat company on the marine slip, near the foot of Michigan street. One of the big Lehigh Valley propel- lors which was unloading grain -at the marine elevator. directly opposite the sheds, was pulled away from the deck with her upper works ablaze, and it was with great difficulty that other vessels succeeded in escaping the flames: which swept across the slip and to the opposite side of Buffalo river. 2 A downpour of rain which began soon after the fire started probably prevented a disastrous conflagration along the water front.
