Refuse to Sail on Vessel, and Threaten to burn Her. Madrid, April 3.--The steamer Heli- opolis, which was chartered by the Ha- waiian government to convey 1,500 emigrants from the Andalusian pro- vinces | to Hawaii, has been detained at Malaga in consequence of coni- plaints made regarding the food and the accommodations. Three hundred emigrants refased to sail, and they threatened to break up the vessel. They complained that the food was poor and insufficient, and many of them claimed that since Thursday théy have received nothing but coffee prepared with salt water, The harbor master held an inquiry and refused to allow the vessel to sail.

Fmmerson, minister of railways and canals, had tendered his resigua- tion. + Before the onders of the day were called Sir Wilirid Laurier an- nounced it. He said that Mr, Emmer- son had been subjected to insinuations and rumors of a most injurious char- actor and insinuations hitherto impad- pable and intangible, but which had at last taken the form of a very. in- jurious newspaper article, He said that the minister absolutely denied the truth of the allegations, and in order to better vindicate his character had tendered his resignation, and it had been accepted. Mr. Emmerson, in an impassiobed spoech, declared that the charges made against him by the Fredericton Glean- er were false. He had given instruc- tions for the issue of writs for libel against that paper, as well as the Halifax Herald and the Toronto World, which had repeated the statements of the Gleaner. He recognized the fact that gossip had been at work; slanderous state ments had reached his ears from time to time, but they had not been made in any tangible form, and so' he could not, before his peers and 'before his fellows, take any cognizance of them. In a way be felt relieved to think that "he matter had come to a head. "1 admit that 1 have had my weak- pegses," he said. "1 have had my foibles. Until this matter reached the point which it has reached 1 had net thought that it was a subject for par- liamentary discussion or "parliamen- tary investigation. I had felt this at least, that the man who was without sin should be the man to cast Tirst stone, and while 1, standing as T do before the bar of public opinion, and as, within a very few days I will stand before the courts of justice, while T will tell the whole truth, I ex- pect to be judged, not by the stand ard that would be set upon the plea of 'you're another,' while 1 ask for no mercy from that standpoint, if the standard that should be the standard of the people of this country shall gov- ern me, and if 1 am unfit and uns worthy of recognition in this house or in this country I am willing to go down. "But, sir, after that, and when that question has been fought out and de termined, there is one other question that the members of this house will ask themselves, that the people of this country will ask of this house, and it is this--Are there others ?* *' Statements False. Regarding the statements in the Gleaner Mr. Emmegson repeated that they were false, and continued : "In anything which I buve ever done, eith or in the city of Montreal or under any other circumstances, I did it to. pro- tect the innocent, and have never been --mark my words, Mr. Speaker, and 1 make them with full knowledge of the solemnity of the occasion and the dig- nity of my position--I have never been in" an hotel in the city of Montreal in my life with anybody of ill-repute, I shall take occasion to show that to be untrue. "Jt is recognized as a crisis in any man's life when statements of this kind are paraded before the country, and while 1 almost feel a sense of re lief and gratification to know that 1 am now placed where I can and will meet my traducers, I have been in a position during the discussions in this house of not knowing whether these insinuations and inuendocs have been aimed at me or not; there was nothing tangible, nothing that I could seize upon, nothing that I could take hold of. The time has come, the time is mow here, and 1 hope, sir; $6 be able to seize the opportunity so that every man who has heretofore been able to grasp my hand as a friend, as an equal, will be able to say herealter, that he can grasp my hand and wel- come me as Nerotofore, as a friend." "So far as my political opponents are concerned, | have no word to say. Political life has its difficultion, its troubles, and its struggles. I have met these difficolties. 1 have sur- weaknesses, with all my foibles, and who are there who have them not? Who are there who are above re ptomch ? 1 hope they exist. T hope they are within the sound of my voice.
