The resumption of the adjourned debate on the motion for the second reading of Mr. Mulock’s hm prohibiting nwmbcrs from trawlling on passes was next on the order paper. When this Was rmwhcd the yous and nnys were deumnded. The House divided, and the motion was lost by 100 to 46. Mr White (Cm-dwell) moved the second reading of thohili removing certuin dis- abilities under which the Masonic body under the jurisdiction of the Grand Lodge of Quebec at. present labour. The bill trees this body from a prohibition contain- cdin a statute of the old Province of Lower Canada against the holding of meetings hymth-bound associations, in- fringexm-nt of which was punishable by severe pcnalites. The motion was carried. CONTRACTS TO ALIENS. Mr. M‘Lennzm moved the second read- ing of his bill to prevent the letting of con- tracts to aliens. Tim bill, he suid,propqs- ed to (10411 with contracts made by the Government 01’ Canada, and none but these would be interfered with. It did not marrow with alien labour coming into this country, nur with emigration. In the United Stun-s there were all sozts of drawbacks and difliculties in the way of outsiders 01ml. ning contracts. Mr. Huggart said the bill applied to aliens of every country, and the Govern- ment might not have the power to enact such legislation. "he hon. gentleman‘s remarks had been directed almost solely to aliens of the United States, and be doubted whether such a measure was ad- visable in the public nterest. Mr. Mzwleztn said the mover of. the bill spoke for a, large number of Canadian con- tractors. Canadians nuw found them- selves humssml and driven out of the United States, and unfairly treated in fishery. labour, quurmntine, and other laws. Mr. Tisdale, whiin conceding the rights of the United Suites at individual States topass whatever hostile legislation they pleased, deprmtmud extreme measures. Hc favoured as far as possible the employ- ment of Canadian labour in Guardian works. Mr. Gibson thought the bill objection- able, asmbere might, be occasions when foreign labour wugld be: d DOMINION PARLIAMENT. Mr'. Macdonell chuught Canadian con- tractors could hold thier own with any contractors. Mr. Sproule said tho action of Mr. De- Barry at Buffalo, whose sole occupation seemed to be deportation of Canadians, sometimes nmdc it almost to be regretted that there was not sumo such law on the smtubesas that introduced by the hon. member for Glcngnrry. CONTRACTORS’ RIGHT TO VOTE. Mr. Edgar moved the second reading of a bill in mucndnu-nt of the Criminal Code of 1892, which prohibits unv oihccr or con- tractor ’of anv (ion Trillium subsidized rail- way contributing mum-v towards the elec- tion of any pariinnmnmrv c: mdiduw. Mr; ’Anint pointed uu'n that the clause 3% drafted applied only to contractors holding Fem-mg cogtructs. 811- Charles H. Tupper said the hon. gentleman‘s bill was apparently based on an mnendmvnt moved by the loader of the Opposition to the railway rumlutiuns last 36381011. Mr. Ouimut, in answer to Mr.Bruneau, said Public Sum funuruls had been given to Sir George Etienne Cautionto Sir John A. wadonnld, and to Sir John Thomp- son, at 3. cost respectively of $10,000, $6,- 938, and in the luttm‘ case the accounts were not yet mljustod. but the amount, it was expected, would ho about the sum vot- ed, $25,000. The Government paid. $295 on account of the f unuml of Thomas Darcy McGee. Mr. Costignn moved the second reading of a bill further to amend the Fisheries Act, which prohibits the pollution of water frequented by fish mentioned in the A« t under penalty, but provides for ex- emption by the Minister of Murine of cer- tain streams in which it may be in the interest of the public be permit the dump- ing of mill rubbish er sawdust. No such exemption, however, shall be granted till J unc 30th. Sir Charles H. 'l‘uppor remarked that this was not a new thing. Independently of politics, the lumln-rmcn had made out a. case to the satisfuclinn of the Minister, which he was now submitting to the House. Sir James Grant argued that sawdust in the Ottawa river had not proved injuri- ous toliealth. had not driven away the fish, and had not. seriously obstructed nangation. PROHIBITION COMMISSION.

Mr. Turte, on the item of 825,000 con- tribution to the Lady Thompson fund, said. the late Premier had a large enough salary to have provided for his family after his death. If he was rightly inform- oda. fund of $38,000 had already been misednvhich was quite sufficient to main- .“-..v_ V min Lady Thompsbn in the circumstamces to which she had been accustomed.
