He said that a similar re solution had been passed last session, but had not been acted upon, owing to the shortuess of the session, loves tigations of the subject had been made in Great Britain and France, and the evidence there adduced would now be available for use by the Canadian com- mittee. There were in the dominion experts who could give evidence as to the utility of proportional representa- tion from a local point of view. Bir Wilfrid Laurier said he had no objection to the passage of the reso- lution, although the committee might have to wait for some time before commencing its work. "We would have more grits from Ontario in the house," he said, *'if the system had been in force at the last election. I'here was a liberal majority in On- tario outside of Toronto. Toronto is a fine city, but, apparently, in politi- cal matters, hopelessly blind, Liberals of that city are not represented in the house." I'he motion was carried, Me, Monk moved that "Whereas it appears from published criminal statistice, that crime increasing alarmingly among the young, and whereas it has been proved by experi- and testimony that the placing together of all classes of convicts in our penal institutions is highly detri- mental to the improvement and recla- the and i= now strongly asserted that classification and of convicts, undergoing punishment according to their ages, aptitudes; of criminality and prospects of moral improvement have been productive of most beneficial re- sults : Resolved, that it is desirable to by the appointment of a special commission or by reports ob our ence mation of vounger offenders; whereas it believed regation and degree ascertain wardens could be tpined upon the subject from and inspectors ; adopted in (Canada to insure a judici- ous classification and segregation of the convicts if our penal institutions and reformatories." The present penitentiary system was now obsolete, said Mr. Monk, and had been condemned. Youthful offenders were permitted to associate with har- dened criminals.

Anderson, Former Em- ploye of Sugar Trust Insists He Furnished the Evidence to the Govermment, New York, Nov. 18.--A new figure was introduced into the controversy surrounding the investigation of frauds charged to the American Sugar Relin- ing company, when Edwin I. Ander- son, a former superintendent of -docks for the company and a close personal friend of the late Theodore (0. Have- meyer, announced through his attor- neys that he is the man referred to by James B. Reynolds, fcmnufl assistant secretary of the treasury, as the one who gave the department first. specific information regarding the frauds. Anderson has filed claims with the customs authorities for compensation, which he estimates will reach £1,000, 000. For thé past two years, he says, he has been engaged in furnishing evi- dence to the government, and it was through him, he asserts, that Richard Parr, who now figures so prominent ly in the case, gained his information. Anderson "absolves Mr. Reynolds any attempt tions, ot to check the investiga- declaring that the former assist- ant secretary was at all times enthusi- astic in his desire for prosecution. In fact, the first activity came as the re: nolds gave him, he says. Are Under Suspicion. Washington, . Nov. 185.~Twenty-two assistant weéighers in the New York customs house are known to have been implicated in or are under suspicion of a positive character in the so-called sugar trust frauds. From remarks let fall by congres- L : sional callers at the White House, there seems little doubt but that a congres- sional committee will be appointed to investigate the whole subject of the sugar frauds and customs house cor- poration 'in New York. No official notice will be taken by the treasury department at least for the .present of the controversy which has arisen between former Assistant Secretary" James B. Reynolds, now a member of the tariff board, and Rich- ard Parr, a deputy surveyor attached to the New York customs house The meat of the controversy appears to be the desire of Mr. Parr to obtain a moiety of the 82,000,000 fine impos ed upen the sugar trust for the alleged frauds in' the introduction of saga: into this country. 1 developed at the treasury depart ment that Mr. Parr, last spring, pre sented to the department a statement of thesé alleged frauds in which he laid claim to such an amount, to be paid out of the fine imposed, as the treasury. -might allow him for the dis covery of the frauds. Secretary MacVeagh was not prepar- ed to say whether iavorable or -unfa- vorable action might be taken on the claim. al espe-- School Inspector Resigns. Ont., Nov. 18.--The resig nation of James H.

London, Nov. 18.--The annual com- ference the consarvative assoeia~ tions at Manchester, yesterday, en- dorsed, with the greatest enthusiasm, Lord Lansdowne's resolution to ask the House of Lords to declate the house is nots justified in giving its consent ta the budget bill uwoatil this shall have bon submitted to the jude- mend of the country. Ex-Pramier Bal four, as leader of the pasty, repeated this endorsement in g ef , and had what was perhaps the biggest recep- tion of his life. He emphasized the issue before the country, tariff reform of the budget, which: latter, he de- clared, was a combination of bad finane» andr muddie-headed socialism. Rt. Hon. Henry Chaplin, also speak- ing at Manchester, said: tho attacks on tariff reform must be met by, the frank avowal that if they ware to have taxes on manufacturers they must also have some taxation on im- ported food, small though it Might wo. 14 was absolutely essential for the policy of proferenco and future British agriculture that these taxes must ba offset by a readjustment of tho existing duties on food. Walter Runciman, president" of the board of education, speaking at Hull, last night, made the important an- noumcement thet, the government would refuse to entertain any nego- tiations or compromise with the peers over the budget. John E. Redmond, loader of the Irish party, speaking in Dublin, last night, declared his party refused to throw itself into the arms of the {ariff reformers ot to back up the house of loras, Irdland's deadly ene mies. The mnationeliste, he said, had long waited to strike a blow at the lords. ' REPORT IS TABLED. Canada's Navy is Specially Arranged For. Ottawa, Nov. 18.--Hon. Mr. Brodeur tabled, vesterday afternoon, the blue book containing the correspondence and proceedings of the recent imperial defence_conference. This document will form the basis of what promises to be far afid away the most important sub ject of debate of this or of recent ses- sions. The outstanding feature is a sharp divergence between what the ad- miralty considered as the best plan of {naval defence and. the plan in fact agreed upon having regard to the situ- ation of the various dominions. Tho aditiralty held that effitiency' would be best obtained by having the one navy under the one command, and recom- mended in effect direct contributions by the overseas states to the British navy. Recognizing, however, that the colonies might prefer local navies, a plan was prepared by which each do- minion would have a fleet consisting of one Dreadnaught and other vessels, to cost £3.700,000 sterling. Australia adopted objected to this and finally adopted a plan submitted by the admiralty which Dreadnaught and re- annual expenditure to $2.- [Erench dealer of the name of Rosenrii|000.000.

A Sensational Charge in Steinheil Case, Paris, Nov. 18. Charging that Madame Marguerite Steiheil was ac- quitted of the murder of her husband and mother by a schome which influ- enced a majority of the jury, La Patrie outlines the manner in which it says a vote of nine for conviction was chang- ed to a majority for acquittal. According to La Patrie, nine jury- men favored condemning Mme. Stein- heil until Foreman Pourpart was tak- en ill Friday night. He, it is claimed, favored a conviction with a recommen- dation for capital punishment, and six of the jurors were personally following his' opinion. It is' rumored that the illness from which Pourpart suffered was the result of his being made drunk on Friday for the express purpose of incapacitating him on Saturday. It is charged that the substitute who took Pourpart's place was in favor of Mme. Steinheil's acquittal, and that he succeeded in changing the final vote. La Patric's charges have caused a sensation. ---------- NEW BAPTIST PASTOR. Rev. Harry Pethic Will Oshawa.
