OF CITY'S STAKE which EXTENT The bridge question ds one a good deal of thought. to will stand The disposition of some people is knock the the council has not given it the stud, scheme, 'hey assume that it requires, to agree with them. At the time it is apparent that any ment, in the public interest, be fairly and intelligently and, reason- ably treated. It is with a desire to gel at a proper understanding of th! situation that the Whig looks further at the proposal, from different stand- points, and invites the criticism that will be helpful, not hurtful. And, first, some people are curious to know how the city became a stock- holder in the bridge. The transaction is' summed up in this brief manner mn the records of the city : "Cataraqui Bridge Co. Dr. "To K. P. & G. Road Co., "For 200 shares of $100 éach, in the capital stock of the said Catara- qui Bridge Co., assigned the city on December 31st, 1874, as an equiv- alent for the 200 shares of Kingston, same move: should and the Whig is inclined |¢ - later distributed along the three sides of the little republic.

Bad as things are, Nore ie better cannot be expected from . insurrectionists. They represent the lower classes of the people, who are discontinued to the point of rebelling against constituted authority without knowing just what they want. With Diaz and his government gone, op Diaz what wetlld follow There is no comforting suggestion. Would Uncle Sam be inclined to annex Mexico ? The republic of the States, under the Munro doctrine, must protect every smaller republic in America. It may be induced to tect Mexico only to appropriate annex it.

The emergeticy, arose for a Change in the bridge, a struc. | tural change, with which the Exptora- tion Company was primarily concern: ed. It wanted a wider span for its bouts. At one time, indeed, it thought of building - the span itself, if it could not be had in any other way. The original plan did not, however, call for an expensive work, nor one of the dimensions now proposed. The council was pressed to take action, as! the principal stockholder, and as the body which, in proceeding. would have the interests of vesselmen and steam: boat owners in mind. 'The mariners 'contended that the improvement of the lower harbour was an absolute ne- cestity. The board of trade urged the undertaking on the ground that it could be completed for a sum that would not be seriously in excess of the Exploration company's offer. The council aeted hurriedly or with. out the mature reflection which the ds re bas sometunes and! ends it to the unbiased consideration of the people.

ED AT FELT MILLS, Named as Beneficiary in Insurance of Edward Mills--XNo Change in Policy After She Married Another Admirer. Watertown, N.Y., March 16.--Through the death of a former admirer, Mrs. Virgil Wood, formerly Miss Grace Sa- vell, of Emerson street, has been left 21,000 by Edward Mills, a well-known voung man of this city. He was acci- dentally killed om the railroad at Felts Mills some weeks ago. Miss Savell was named as the bene- ficiary of a life insurance policy for £1,000, which was carried by Mills at the time of his death. He lived with I. A. Kellogg in South Massey street. The Kellogg family was distantly re lated to Mills, and there is also a brother of the victim in New York. Since Mille' death when it became known that it had been the young man's desire to leave his money to the young woman, there has been some talk of an effort to break the will. At- torney Delos Cosgrove has been re tained by one of the parties interesied. A year or two ago Mills and Miss Savell werp together frequently and friends expected that their engage ment would be announced. Miss Savell was a cashier in the Bushnell store. Miss Savell then met the man whom she married a few weeks ago, but no change was ever made in Mills' insur- ance policy, Mills was killed in a strange manner, He was an employee of the railroad. About six o'clock in the evening, when there was a slight rain falling, he was walking beside a slowly mov ing car being swung into a switch at Felts Mills. No one saw the accident, but it supposed that Mills slipped and beneath the car. J fell OWEN MORAN, English lightweight: champion, met Wolgast on March 14th. THE WHIG'S JUMBL..
