May 9. - When the busi- ness of the House began yesterday. Sir Charles Tupper drew the atten- tion of the Government to the scar- czty of paper consequent upon the Hull-Ottawa and the Grand Mere fires, and the necessary resultant pressure brought upon on Canadian newspapers. Without politicalr in- tent, he asked the Government to consider the advisabifity of remov- ing the present postage on newspa- The Weekly Post mills were hard presseo to sum": 9..., Canadian demand.” _h.e__‘1§nren‘tihgg sources. He felt sure that some impers in Canada would have to go u ithout paper unless it was obtained from the United States. Sir Wilfrid declared the Government had received communications from all over Canada. to the efl'ect that such a. condition had been caused by these conflagrations, that it was expedient to consider some measures for ten;- porary relief. Should the customs duty on paper be remitted? Should the postal duties be suspended? The Government was considering the matter. but at present had reached no conclusion. The situation had not escaped the attention of the Gov- ernment. R. L. Richardson had also been at the meeting of publishers, and declar- ed that now was a. proper time to impress the need of remitting the duty on news print upon the Goren- mcnt. He made the startling state- ment that thewewspaper publishers in the west were held up to the a- tent of 60 per cent... possibly 100'per cent... by the manufacturers of paper. This was more especially true since the postage on newspapers had been instituted. He was of the opinion that a. combination had been formed among paper manufacturers in order to advance the price. He thought the Government should look into this. Mr. McCIeary (Welland) considered the remission of the duty on news print a. serious retrograde step. _ Mr. Gibson (Lincoln) read a. tele- gram from the minowners, asking that nothing be done in suspending um duty till they had a chance of be- ing heard. After Dr. Montague had pointed out that R. L. Richardson‘s state- ment regarding the West, if true. should be looked into by the Gov- ernment, and Mr. Fielding had said that the Government could not. act ing 271,040 acres. and 398 wail-ants had been exchanged for $80 scrip in each instance. The resolution granting the Gov- ernment power to grant: subsidies for steamship service between British Columbia and Japan carried. The subsidies will 110‘ £15,000 forâ€" a- monthy service. and £25,000 a. year for a fortnightly nervice. Sir Richard Cartwfight was given permindomto twins in a. bill founded on this roohttion. The matter‘Was Sir Henri Joly moved a second reading of his bill to regulate the sue oz mo opple hostels. The bill was diam-ed for an hour, and then eventually withheld to talked over in a root's tune. , . . Mr, McMunén said that if the mak- ers of paper raised the price higher than it was six months ago the Gov- ernment should step in and protect the Canadian consumers by remitting the duty. on the unsupported statement 0! a member of the House, Mr. Maclean read a telegram from the Laurentide Paper Company, stating that they would be doing business next week. An act to make further provision respecting grants of land to members of the militia. force on active Sam ice in the Northwest, was read a third time.

Sir Charles ’l‘uppor declared the Government’s cold storage policy had caused the farmer to" pay 50 per cent. more than he should for the service. He particularly declared that Mr. Fisher had shOWn capacity for nothing except a patent process for fattening chickens. But his in- competency WM only on a par with the deplorable incapacity of the whole Government. In Sir Charles' opinion the Governmmt should have made its cold' stm‘nire contracts prior to the South African war. as they had been advised to do by the Op-i positmn. A rate of 10s could then. have been obtained. "But.” said Sir Charles. "the Minister of Agriculture did not expect there would be war. beau“ the people were praying there should be no war. What im- plicit faith in prayer!" Six o'clock. A Better System Adapted. After recess, in reply to a question by Mr. Taylor. Mr. Fisher stated that when the ex-Minister of Agriculture titted up the steamships with the ice cold-storage the system of mechani- cal coldâ€"storage was well understood. and the butter that competed with the Canadian article in the British market was conveyed there in steamâ€" ships fitted with that system.

The debate dragged along until the respective merits of cold-storage. ventilating fans, fast and NOW steam- ers and bottle-necked steamers had boon' discussed. 1Lr..Monta.gue in reply said that when the cold-storage was first in- stituted b; the former Gm ernment it was carried out in accordance with the advice of Prof Robertson. He urged the necessity of bringing Can- _-a- ,, _, adian produCe prominently before th¢ people of Great Britain, for which purpose the late Government. asked a vote for the purpose of establish- ing depots in which our produce \\ ould be labelled and sold as Cana- dian. The result of the existing sys- tem was that Canadian produce was sold under another name. Mr. Featherston said the great trouble had been that although the dealers in Great Britain knew What they were handling, the consumei- did not know what he was getting. He had been informed by a gentleman who spent five months in -Em:land this winter that American pork from Chicago was being- sold there as Can- adian bacon, and he advocated that Canadian sides be branded with a hot, iron in the same manner as the Wiltshire bacon was marked iion. Mr. Dandumnd moved the second reading of his act respecting usury.‘ He said last year the Senate passed a. bill limiting the rate of in- terest on loans to the rate of 20 per cent. He remembered that some Sen~ ators were frightened at the high rate, but he explained that to re- strict money lenders to 20 per cent. was doing a great deal, as they were running riot at {our to live hundred per cent. The money lenders Were disturbed, but had twelve months' respite. Case after case of extortion had come to light during the year. At the same time he Was trying to get the penal clauses included in the Criminal Code Amendment Act. Sir M. Powell said he would like to see the criminal clauses passed. Hon. David Mills said that in this measure Mr. Danduramd wanted to protect those 'who were forced to borrow, and limited the rate of in- terest to 20 per cent. Mr. Dandu- rand had given instances where rates amounting to three, and four hun- dred per cent. had ‘ been charged.

Toronto, May 11. â€"â€" Mr. Peter Mc- Intyre, freight agent of the Richelieu (c. Ontario Navigation Company, Was shot down by his 13-year-old son, Arthur, in his ofllce on the wharf at the foot of Yongp street yesterday morning. The deed was committed at exactly 10.25, and was witnessed by no one excepting the young lad. Mr. McIntyre went to his office yesterday morning about ’8 o'clock. and was accompanied by his son. Arthur Was sent to change a $10 bill. and when he returned he entered his father's office and closed the dour behind him. Arthur had only been in the room a few minutes when Daniel McCuaig, customs offl- oer: Edward Coiiigan of the Hamil- ton Steamboat Company, and EdWard Niven and Clarence E. Watson, tWo clerks. who were in the building. heard a pistol shot. Thinking that the shot was fired outside the building they all ran out onto the wharf, but immediately re- turned. As Mr. Niven was about to enter Mr. McIntyre's office, the dc- ceascd opened the door himself and fell to the floor across the doorway between the tWO rooms. The son was standing beside his father, and in a hysterical manner exclaimed that he_had killed him.

Ht: felt sure that some {wipers in Canada would have to go \\ ithout paper unless it was obtained from the United States. Sir Wilfrid declared the Government had received communicatimis from all over Canada, to the effect that such a condition had been caused by those conflagrations, that it was expedient to consider some measures for tem- porary relief. Should the customs duty on paper be remitted? Should the postal duties be suspended? The Government was considering the matter, but. at present had reached no conclusion. The situation had not escaped the attention of the Gov- ernment. . R. L. Richardson had also been at the meeting of publishers, and declar- ed that now was a. proper time to impress the need of remitting the duty on news print upon the Govern- ment. He made the startling state- ment that thencewspaper publishers in the west were held up to the a- tent of 60 per cent., possibly 100 per cent... by the manufacturers of paper. This was more especially true since the postage on newspapers had been instituted. He was of the opinion that a combination had been formed among paper manufacturers in order to advance the price. He thought the Government should look into this. Mr. )IcCleary (Welland) considered the remission of the duty on news print a Serious retrograde step. Mr. Gibson (Lincoln) read a tele- gram from the millowriers, asking that nothing be done in suspending Lire duty till they had a chance of be- ing heard. . Mr, McMullen said that if the mak- ers of paper raised the price higher than it was six months ago the Gov- ernment should step in and protect the Canadian consumers by remitting the duty. After Dr. Montague had pointed out that R. L. Richardson's stateâ€" ment regarding the West, if true. should be looked into by the Gov- ernment, and Mr. Fielding had said that the Government could not act ' on the nus-pported statement of a member of the House, Mr. Madam read a. telegramfrom the Laurentide Paper Company, stating that they Would be doing business next week. An act to make further provision respecting grants of land to members of the militia force on active service in the Northwest, was read a. third time. ' Mr. Sutherland explained that only 50 warrants remained standing. War- rants hadf'heen taken out. aggregat- ing 27 .040 acres. and 398 warrants had been exchanged for $80 scrip in. each instance. The resolution granting the Gov- ernment pOWer to grant subsidies for steamship service between British Columbia and Japan carried. The subsidies will 110' £15,000 for a- monthy service. and £25,000 a, year for a fortnightly service. Sir Richard Cartwright was given permission-to bring in a bill founded on this rsohxtion.

Mr. Fisher said that since 1897, when Canada came so much to the from. in the jubilee year, and since Canada. passed the preferential tariff, Canadian produce was so popular in Great Britain that' articles from other countries were sold as Canad- ian. (Cheers) The debate dragged along until the respective merits of cold-storage. ventilating fans, fast and Blow steam- ers and bottle-necked steamers had been discussed. The resolution was reported and concurred in, and Mr. Fisher in_tro- duced a. bill in accordance with it. The House adjourned at. midnight. Fighting; Against Usurv. Ottawa, May 9. â€" In the Senate ~testerday afternoon the bill to incur- porate the Holiness Movement Church in Canada was read a third time. lion. Mr. Dandurand movéd the Second reading of his act respecting usury. He said last year the Senate passed a. bill limiting the rate of in- terest on loans to the rate of 20 per cent. He remembered that some Sen- ators were frightened at the high rate, but he explained that to re- strict money lenders to 20 per cent. was doing a great deal, as they Were running riot at four to five hundred per cent. The money lenders were , disturbed, but. had twelve months' respite. Case after case of extortion had some to light during the year. At the same time he was trying to get the penal clauses included in the Criminal Code Amendment Acc. Sir M. Bowen said he would like to see the criminal clauses passed. Hon. David Mills said that. in this measure Mr. Dandurand wanted to protect those 'who were forced‘ to borrow, and limited the rate of in- terest to 20 per cent. Mr. Dandu-L rand had given instances where rates amounting to three, and four hun- dred per cent. had ' been charged. The bill aimed at protecting the imâ€" pecunious. The bill was read a. second time and was ordered to be taken up in Committee of the Whole on Thursday. The Senate adjourned until WedneS- day. ,_. JVOTHEIK LABOR DISPUTE.

CORBETT GETS HIS QUIETUS. Left Jul: to Jaw “stained the Champion- ship for Jefl'ru-s, Though Gonorslly ourpolnu-d I’Iarouzhuus the Contest New York, May 12. â€"-â€"- The battle last night at the Seaside (.lub, Coney Island, for the heavyweight cham- pionship of the world resulted in a. victory for Jim Jeffries. the holder, over Jim Corbett in the 23rd round. Corbett made a surprisingly good showing, and about the middle of the scheduled route threatnaed to ' win the battle, though he figured a. 3 b0 1 shot in the betting. Jenries got to Corbett with mdifflculty, the lat- ter’s side stopping and general scien- tific work generally fooling the cham- pion, who, however, scored at times seriouSIy. finally, with lefts to body and jaw, winning by the clean knockout route. The men fought straight Queenberry rules. Charlie White was referee. The Weights an- nounced were: Jeflries 212 and Cor- bett 182 pounds. The fight started at 10.35. The clubhouse was well filled. The betting ranged from 8 to 1 to 2 to 1, with Jeffries always the favorite. The finishing blov: came as a sud- den and startling surprise. Corbett had been making a w_onderful battle. His defence was absolutely perfect. and, while he was lacking in strength he had more than. held his own, and stood an excellent chance of winning the fight had it gone the limit. He had not. been badly punished, and had urmiagod to mark his man sevâ€" erely. The Winning punch was a short left jolt to the jaw. Corbett dropped like a weight and was clear out. Jeflries showed ability to take a punching, go ”any distance and punch hard. He was clearly out- boxed, and at times 'made to look like a novice. ’The crowd numbered Col._ 1" rwb ' It Very Ill.

They. with a great deal of trouble. brought him back to the station. Cazes was living on a flat on the third floor of the same building with his mother, his wife and um; children. Immediately after his arrest the two constables were called upstairs by the mother of the prisoner. The old mother said to them: "Joe (meaning her son) has killed his wife. Come in and look for your- self." They were then stupellcd to find in a small room the lifeless body of the prisoner's wife (Bridget Conlon). She had received five difâ€" ferent wounds. The mother said that hgr son had arrived to take his dinner at. 2.45 o'clock: that he looked sober: that he had a quarrel with his wife about the kitchen stove which was not going. She Went to her own room with the children, and a few minutes after she heard three consecutive detonations, and she heard the prisoners leaving the house inunediately after that by the rear door. after having locked the front door. and left with the key. Canes was then confined in the com- mon jail under the accusation of having killed his wife. He was on Saturday afternoon found guilty in spite of the efforts of the lawyers of the, defence to get a verdict of man- slaughter, because Canes was so much under the influence of liquor when he committed the crime that he did not know what he was doing.
