OTTAWA, May, 6.-â€"A conference took place yesterday between the legislative committee of the Dominion Alliance and t a number of members of Parliament fm'or- 1 able to prohibition. Senator Vidal was in the chair, and there were present: Messrs. J. J. McLarne, Secretaries Spence, of ; Toronto, and Carson, of Montreal ; J. R, Dougail and Williams Trees, of Montreal; Rev. Mr. Chown, Almonte, and the fol. lowing members of Parliament : Messrs. I Jamieson, Scriver,. Henderson, Dyer, Taylor, Laidlaw, Roome, Mills (of Ann- apolis), MacDonald (of Huron), McMillan, Bowers. Flint, White (of Shelburne), .Qhristie, Contsworth. Dickey, Carpenter l and Craig. After some discussion the lfollowing reenlutinn was agreed upon to i be moved by Mr. Jamieson : That, in the opinion .of this House, the time has arrived when it is expedient to prohibit the manufacture, sale and importation of intoxicating liquors for beverage purposes. ' Mr Taylor objected to the simple reso‘ tin-- tion, and gave notice that he would "hive, as on former occasion, an amendment providing for a. popular ballot on the question and for compensation t .1 monume- ‘ tures: He pointed out that fig his-motion i to this efiect has been earn-16d the ballot The chairman did not advise hasty action, but did not wish to introduce \political considerations. If the Goverib ment were adverse to prohibition, let them go, he said, though he had always supported them. ‘ " ,ELLA could have been taken at the recent general elections Withuut extra expense and the wishes of the people Precisely ascertained. Besides, to pass the resolu- tion as it stood, meaning5.1mnediateprobi-- tion, would embarrass the Government, by depriving them of a large part of the revenue by which they were expected to run the Government, and they would have ‘ to resign. THE PROHIBITION QUESTION.

Lord James Douglas, described as “of 0 Kensington Court,” for a contravention of g of the Census Act. Mr, Rutherglen made g the application at the instance of the a Registrar-General, and in so doing handed the magistrate, Curtis Bennett, a letter and Lord James Douglas’ census paper, ' orted to be a return of the l members of his household. Upon this re- turn were the name of Lady James Douglas and her son, the former being described as “cross sweep” and “lunatic,” and the latter as “shoeblack,” born “in Darkest AfriCa.” Mr. Rutherglen then said that he relied on the 20th section of the act, when provided that, “If any per- son refuses to answer, or wilfully gives a false answer to such questions or any of them, he shall for each otfznce be liable to a line not exceeding £50. The magistrate said that the offence was clear on the face of the return, and grant- ed the summons asked for. Mr. Ruther- glen asked if he should call Lady James , Douglas as a Witness, ,but Mr. Bennett thought not, as the act did not authorize the wife to be called. The magistrat add- ed that some of the servants who knew Lord James’ handwriting might be called, and subpoena summonses were granted for the attendance of two of them. against Lord James Douglas came up for hearing on Monday ’ April 20, when Mr. Rutherglen applied to ’ the magistrate for permission' to with- ; draw it, stating that he had seen Lord ‘ James, who has expressed regret and shame for the childish and foolish return. L The latter told Mr. Rutherglen that he ' was ill in bed, andthat he gave the return to his wife to fill up, after writing his own . 3 name in pencil. 'Mr. Rutherglen added ' that the return was filled up by Lord 1 James’ wife and stepson, who thought it a good joke to make the entries as noted. The magistrate said that he had noticed V that in the, return was a handwriting Mr. Ruther- 7 different from the signature. glgn admitted this. but pointed out that “ rd James Douglas was responsible, 1 though there was some excuse for him. ‘- Lord' J ames. he added, had-paid all the if costs and had satisfied the Registrar-Gen- eral, who instructed the Speaker‘to with- it draw the sumons. The magistrate then allowed the summons to be withdrawn. The Suicide of Lord Douglas ' THE WATCHMAN. . ‘AMERlCAN vs. CANADIAN FLOUR. What is thought ofthe Dominion Article in Kirgston, Jamaica ri‘he Kingston, Jamaica, Gleanci says: “ The subject cf breadstufis is encde- manding close attention. With us ici not a matter of sentiment ; we wa‘d‘ {“111 best value for our money. W110 cm mun PRAISE For. CANADIAN FLOUR. .. The communication referred to above in i signed “A. B. Ventresse.” The following I is an extract : “ The Canadian flour now in the Island is universally admitted to be superior to any imported. It has been demonstrated that it stands the climate. The same grades can he obtained from any of the firms represented here. A question for the people of Jamaica to decide is : Are they going to continue to import flour from the Atlantic and Gulf States which contains but. 11.35 per cent. of gluten when they can get a flour from Canada containing 14.31 per cent ; while at the same time that this is the ratio of nutritious value it has been demonstrated that the same quan- tity of Canadian flour produces a greater quantity of bread In other words eleven pounds of Canadian flour contain the same nutriment as fourteen pounds of United States flour ; or eleven barrels of Canadian to fourteen of that now imported. And if we take grades from Canada and the in- ferior grades imported, THE RATIO Is STILL GREATER. We know perfectly well that flour of this inferior grade from NewYork can be placed on the market here cheaper than the high grades frOm Canada, but Canadian high grades can be purchased cheaper in Toronto and Montreal than can United States high grades in Chicago and New York. And the Canadian has been shown to be vastly superior to that of the United“ States. Years ago before the opening up of our Great N orth- West the flour from other countries may have been superior to that of Canada, but it must be remembered that our superiority is only now asserting itself, and in a few years time Canada need not look for a market for her surplus flour, as the markets will come to her, and though her surplus at the present time is not as large as that of the United States, yet relatively it is larger. Canadian flour stands second to none in the World. Small sections of some other countries may pos- sibly produce its equal. But no other coun- try in the world has such a large area of high grade wheat prodncmg land as Canada. The Member of Backine‘hamshire Sent to Jail for a Year. LONDON,-1\Iay 6.â€"â€"The trial of Capt.

Capt“ Verney pleaded not guilty of procuring the girl, but he pleaded guilty of conspiring: with Mme. Roulier of - Paris to procure her. The recorder, Sir Thomas Chambers, accepted this plea. and sentenced Capt: Verney to one year’s imprisonment Without hard labor. During the trial the court was packed With people eager to witness the last scene in this sensational case. Capt.
