Professor Goodwin, before honoring "The Prospectors," lauded thea ban- quet, and the credit the students re- flected on the college. The success of its student and gradeate prospectors had been a strength as well ds pride to it. The old style, however, had passed; the new style called for a combinati of woodcraft with scien- tite training. "Here's to the prospec- tors,--1 like the breed." Prof Guillam pleased with his maiden speech in Kingston, dwellinx upon the prospector occupations, his disappointments an ,' his soirit and determination. lf anyone can "get there" he will, and he will not hang back for government sub- sidy either.

Montreal, Lec. 18.--The correspondent of the London Daily Chronicle takes exception to the re port sent out from Ottawa to the ef- fect that he cabled information that the export of Canadian cattle via St. John had been prohibited. As a mat ter: of fact his message was to the entirely opposite efivet, and was de joned to 'ofiset any reports which might have gone from New York, sta- ting that St. John route has heen put under the ban. At a meeting of the Chamber of Commerce' yesterday afternoon, J: X. Penault"s motion to express the de- sire that the next governor-general for the Dominion of Canada be Lord Strathcona, was received with acela- mation, and adopted on principle. It was decided to call a general meeting ing for next Monday for the purpose of endorsing the adoption. Felix Robert, who came here from New York, is under arrest with a charge preferred against him of at- tempting to defraud several large jewellery firms. Robert deposited 8550 in a ik and then ordered several large orders of goods sent to his ho- tel, where he offered to pay by cheque, at the same time exhibiting his bank book. Growing suspicious some firms put the matter in the hands of de weetives, who found that Robert had drawn out his money while retaining the bank book. The original $550 was found on his person. The executive of the Dominion Iron and Steel company is in session hee today, and a proposition is before them to give up the plan to estah- lith a steel rail mill at Sydney and to substitute therefor a structural steel will on the product of which there is a larger profit than on steel rails.
