Into the Iroquois Complaint-- Marine Department Will Not Appoint Cargo Inspector. United States Consul Van Sant re turned on Saturday evening from Ot- tawa, whither he went by order of the United States authori tive . ut i ton, in eonnection w complaint ol the Niagara and St. Lawrence Na- vigation company that the customs at Kingston had discriminated against the steamer Iroquois by refusing her Permission to land at this port on a certain Sunduy'in July, and at the same time Slowed other Senne to Garry excurdons out of ingston, Hheaugh the Thousand Islands, on a round trip, Mr. Van Sant stated that the 'mat. ter was laid before the minister of customs, who promised to give it full ation, and to see that no dis- erimination occurred, if there had beon any. The question of discrimina- tion has yet to be inquired into, be- fore it can be established. The Utiited States company desires to be allowed the sane privileges as other steam- companies, whose boats land here are accorded, -- Will Not Grant Petition. The marine has decided not to accede to the peti- tion of the Kingston city council ask- ing that an inspector he appointed to look after the loading of freight car- 806%, in view of the loss of vessels and lives that had occurred throu wed overloading. The city council's petition nointed out that it was both in the interests of the sailors and the vessel owners that there should be such an inspector, Tt is understood that the Dominion Marine Association raised opposition to the appointment. ------ ALD. ELLIOTT OPPOSED -- To the Purchase of Generator at Light Plant. Alderman Elliott was not at the meeting of the civic light committee on Friday afternoon. His name was mentioned as among the members of committee present, but this was It seems that Ald, Elliott receive the usual post card telephoned to come over to the city buildings when the but business impossible for on, The reason attention is drawn to Ald. Elliott's absence is that he stands opposed to the purchase of the kilowatt genorator at the works which the commiitee decid: from the Uana- Electric Light company, in Mr. Campbell is interested, This plant for the past two vears at $180 a year, so that Ald. Elliott points out that 81,460 is being paid for it, the lowest tender for a new was £1,412, with perhaps an He opposes the purchase of the senerator at the plant until it is valued by Some one not interested. Furthermore, Ald. Elliott save that no mart of the 000 voted by the ratepayers to be spent on light plant extensions was authorized for the purchase of second- machinery, AID TO TEACHERS In Regard to Obtaining First- Class Certificates. The education department has furth- er important changes in the existing ations under consideration, n view of the position generally held that, with the enacted and the further proposed increases to the teac) ' remumeration, none but the holders of first-class professional certi- flcates should be allowed to aot as frincipals of graded public schools, it # planned to further divide the ex- aminations under which teachers go- tively engaged in their work can ob- tain this qualification. At the present time the first class certificate can be obtained in two rts, the examindtion for cach part ing a year apart. It is proposed to further divide the examination, in or- der that it may be taken in three, or, possibly four, parts. This privilege, . will only be accorded those at present holding second-class cortificates who are actually engaged in teaching and are comsequently at a disadvamt- age in preparing their work for the examination. The trend of coming de- partmental changes will he emphati- cally towards better qualification and increased salary recognition. The proposed change would afect five principals in local schools. POLICE FORCE'S WISE MAN. Constable Arniel Acts the Role of a Solomon. On Saturday night the police receiv- od a eall from uptown. On a certain street there was a family fracas. Two families live under the same roof, and grew tomatoes in one garden patch. Saturday, the tomatoes were ually divided and' each of the women heads the house made catsup. When the catsup was bottled it was found that one woman had two more bottles than the other, and when the bands came home, there was a row. Police Constable Arniel responded to the call, and acted as peacemaker. "Your wife has two bottles lose catsup than your conmpanion's wife," said the corpulent constable to one of The he 'Yes, was the response. "Well then, her catsup is brite made, as there is loss water in it. So there's no need of your quarrelling » wa I never thoueht of that," re- Piet the man.

The stores he found lo he ejb to anything to be found in Canada, 4 thinks, should be a Took The Wrong Train. A story is being told of a travelling man who frequently comes to Kingston, and is well known in this city, Last night he started to go to Toronto, but apparently something went radically wrong as he awoke at Brockville. He came back to town and this afternoon proceeded on his way west, : A Lad's Close Shave. Last night & young lad, not over ten years of 'age, who was fishing off Cataraqui bridge narrowly escaped being drowned. fle was down on the stone piers underneath the bridge, and while leaning over, lost his balance and fell into the water. He was un- able to swim, but fortunately was pulled out by a companion. Thieving In Portsmouth. Portamouth residents are going to Organize a White Cap association. There is petty thieving there as well 88 in the city. Late on Saturday night, a villager heard a noise in his ga , and looking out saw that a man had dug up all his potatoes, and was coolly carrying them off in a bag. The offender's name is known, and he may receive a visit from the village white caps. The Polo Tourney.

Leslie, Kingston, is now at work with a gang of between thirty ond' forty men in an effort to get the stranded Allan liner Bavarian afloat before the ice forms and puts an end to work for the season. The effort is a speculation on his part. He has socured the Davie wrecking plant, at Quebec, for the purpose. Even if the steamer is not got to a safe harbor this fall, it is not considered that an- other winter in the ice will make much difference, ------------ Ransacked The Place. A robbery was reported to the pdice late Saturday night. Between the hours of eight and ten o'clock thieves secured admittance, by breaking a rear window, into the home of S. Turner, St, Catharines street. The members of the family being down town at the time the culprits had things all their own way and ransack- ed the place. Silverware and other valuable jowellry was takem. The po- lice are hot on the trail and arrests will follow soon. ---- Laid At Rest. This morning the remains of the late Mrs. Sullivan were conveyed to St. Mary's cathedral with a sincere expression of public loss and of sym- sathy with the sons of deceased, Messrs, Michael, Dennis and Thomas Sullivan, whose frionds are legion. The pallbearers were Messrs. Dominic Fallon, John Doolan, Fdward Cun- ningham, Louis Gourdier, James So- wards, and Denis Corrigan, old friends of the lamentod lady. The solemn ser- vicy ut the cathedral was said by Rev. Father Kehoe, and the remains of a good mother amd kindest of friends were convéyed to the last long rest at St. Mgry"s cemetery. Shot Another's Foxes. A good story is being related at the expense of a local sport who prides himself considerably upon his ability as a marksman. Visiting a small is- land in this vicinity, he was sur- prised to run across a number of foxes and his sportsman ardor being arous- ed he started in to work, not caring whether the fur of the animals was valuable or not at this time of the. year, the result being that seven were shot. He afterwards discovered that the foxes had been purchased and laced on the island by another Gngstonian who was looking for a little sport himself, when the proper time arrived.

J nection with the rebellion were MAN WAS STABBED DAVID HARTMAN, DIVISION Waylaid By Three Young Men-- Was Knocked Unconscious -- Blood Poisoning Has Develop- ed in the Wounds. One of those uplortunate occurrences which happily have been compmrative- ly few in number in this city, for some time past, took place early on Wednesday morning last, resulting in David re who lives at 375 Division street, and who is employed as a driver for the Rathbun company, i set upon by a gang of enter- Jeising vo footpads, and besides wing reli of $20 in cash, suffering severe personal injuries. Mr. Hartman was seen at his home at noon, today, by a representative of the Whig, and while at first he was inclined not to give publidty to the incident, finally acknowledged that the facts were true, saying that he had not reported the matter to the local police, as he did not care to have it become public, as perhaps it might in- jure his chance iscovering the identity of his asTailants. Mr. Hartman's story is to the effect that last Tuesday he spent in Na- punee on business, leaving that town on the midnight train for home. Leav- ing the Grand Trunk city station he came up town, and it was while pass- ing the corner of York and Barris streets that the assault took place. At the intersection of these streets there is a "gore," and it was rather dark there. Walking quietly along he was not suspecting any trouble, when sutlenly three men Sprang out at him. Ove was in front of him, while the others remdined one on each side, endeavoring to get into his trouser pockets. He put up his hands, palms outward, to try and push them away, and was immediately stabbed twice with some weapon, which must have been heavier than an ordinary pooket knife, judging from the wounds which it inflicted. One . cut penetrated the palm of the right hagd, and another the same position on the right mem- ber, the third cut being a' glancing one which slightly cut the skin on the little finger of the left hand. Two well directed hlows being the eyes, then were received by Mr. Hartinan, knock- ing him unconscious. When he came to himself again, which he says "must have been fully an hour afterwards, his pocket bodk, containing the $20 in bills, was gone as, 'of course, also, were his assail- amts. He finally reached home, an sistance being given him a portion of the way by a man that he met, and had his wounds dressed early in the morning at a physician's office. Un fortumately afterwards blood-poisoning developid, but the doctor now thinks that the progress of the disease has been checked. The wound on the right hand is the most serious and had to be lanced this morning. Mr. Hartman has fio idea who his assailants 'were, but says that they were young men. He holds to the onion that they were men who saw im with money in his Possession Napance, and. believes that they lowed him down on the train ing a favorable opportunity im. at fol- await to rob -- FIFTY YEARS AGO. -- Capt. Breden Joined North-West Mounted Police. A very pleasing and unexpected sur- prise greeted Capt. John Breden, this morning, when he visited his favorite rendezvous. A gathering of friends Were waiting and presented him with a handsomely . bound and beautifully illustrated volume by Major Bolton, dealing with the North-West Rebel- lioh. An address also accompanied the presentation and contained congratu- lations to the captain on the fiftieth anniversary of his connection with the Mounted "Police of the far west. Though taken completely unawares the eaptain responded briefly, thak- ing 'his friends for their remembrance and stating that the volume would be of more than ordinary interest to him and he would derive much pleasure in recalling the scenes of former days. This would be the more so the case as some of the men mentioned in con- per- sonally well known to him, and and together they had on more than one occasion sharea their with only the heavens overhead blankets with starry canopy of the -------------- THE BODY WASHED UP Proves ------ to Be That of Joseph Savagos. About one o'clock to-day, tugs at work in the slip at the Montreal Transportation company, washed to the surface the body of Joseph Sav- agos, of Lachine, formerly first mate on the barge Valencia. Friday night last, about midnight, the captain of the vessel reported at the police sta- tion that carly in the evening Sava- gos had come on board, taken off his coat, leaving it on the deck, and had not been seen since. This was the last heard of him until the remains were identified to-day. The body was in a partially mutilated condition, - and in the pockets of the drowned man's clothes were found some loose change, a few trinkets and a string of beads. The remains were taken to Riid's undertakine establishment and Coro- ner Mundell notified. The deceased comes from Lachine, and little is known of his family except that his mother resides there, A CHOSEN ROUTE For C.P.R. to St. Lawrence and Lake Ontario. Mr. Ardagh of the C.P.R. engineer- ing staf, was in town several days ago in connection with very import- ant business regarding a through route for the C.P.R., from Toronto to Montreal, which would run "closer tothe river St. Lawrence and Lake Ontario. As yet no definite vlans have been arranged upon, but it is under- stood that one of the hivher officials of the C.P.R. will shortly visit the city to look mare thoroughly into the situation, -- Two fishing Parties A Busy Tuesday In O Staple Sectio .
