Mr. Bergeron called the attention of the Government to the fact that the steamer Moravia, of the Brazilian line, was at present in the port of Montreal, and that agents of that line were tryâ€" ing to engage the people of this counâ€" try to go and work on the coffee planâ€" tations of Brazil. _ He asked if the Govâ€" ernment was taking steps to protect our' people from going to that counâ€" Lridr. Laurier re&)lied that the matter had not been called to the attention of the Government. . He did not see very plainly what action the Governâ€" ment could take. Every Canadian could go where he pleased, although it would be well if they could be persuaded not to go to â€" Brazil for â€" settlement, as Canada was in every way & far better country. â€" (Applause.) If they should go, however, they should look. . very carefully into the value and character of the contracts upon which they went. pisCcUSSIONS IN sUPPLY.

Laurier was perfectly conscious that in all the border towns of Canada great discontent prevailed with respoct to the operation of the labour law on the other side of the line. He quite agreed that the character of the Amâ€" erican legislation was very unfriendly and very oifensive to Canadians. While that was true however, there was no escaping the conclusion that to adopt the law now proposed would be a simâ€" lliar blot on our own legislation. He bhad just learned for the first time, that correspondence bad taken place between the American and Canadian authorities on the subject, and before proceeding further he thought it would be advisable for the Government to read that correspondence, to see whether it was not possible to avoid unfriendly legislation. I1f, after havâ€" ing taken cognizance of the corresponâ€" dence he found there was no way of escape from the conclusion to which Mr. Taylor had arrived, he would give him every opportunity at the next sitting of the House tolfroceed with the bill if he desired. He therefore moved the adjournment of the debate. . _ Mr. Taylor moved the second readâ€" ing of his bill to prohivit the imporâ€" tation and immigration of foreigners and alions under contract, or agreeâ€" ment to perform labour in Canada. The bill, he said, was an exact copy of the measure in force in the United States. THE INTERIOR PORTFOLIO. Mr. Laurier made the following anâ€" nouncement with respect to the vaâ€" cant portfolio of the Department of the Interior:â€"While 1 am not prepared at the present time to say definitely the date when the portfolio will be filled, it is the intention of the Government to offer the portfolio to some gentleman in the North West, but at present there wep p2 0 _° ~ AAIPANOU SPURC dt SOIMG length in support of his bill, which was read a second time. RAILWAY EMPLOYES. . Mr. Maclean moved the second readâ€" ing of a bill for the better protection of the empioyes of railway companies and others. The bill seeks to provide that by the year 1900 the railway comâ€" panies of Canada shall equip their trains with automatic couplers and air brakes. _ He * hoped the Government would recognize the principle of the measure, and give the House the asâ€" surance that they would help to seâ€" cure its passage. . Mr. Laurier said the Government did not think it advisable to make the bill a Government measure. ‘There was a good deal to be said for both sides of the question. The bill was worthy of consideration from a humanitarian standpoint, but the railway â€" company had alleged the existence of obstacles which would prevent the adoption of the desired reforms. The bill should go to the Railway Committee, where the whole matter could be threshed out. The motion for the second reading was then carried. Mr. Dobell, answering Sauid : that the: â€" exaemnil men t ia â€" ipa, 1y "Aewering Mr. Oliver, said that the exemption of unsold Canadian Pacific railway lands in the Territories from taxation would expire twenty years after the grant from the Crown. . and to vraé,tinally block om | ue es io n n n ALIEN LABOUR .

A despatch from _ Cleveland, says: It is probable that diplomatic compliâ€" cations will arise between the United States and Great Britain over the mainâ€" tenance on the great lakes of the revâ€" enue cutter Walter Q. Gresham, which was launched here on Saturday. Britâ€" ish naval experts hold, after a careâ€" ful examination of the plans of the vesâ€" sel, that she should be classed as a warship, rather than as a revenue cutâ€" ter, and that bher maintenance on the lakes would be a violation of the treaty entered into by the United States and Great Britain, whereby only one war vessel can be maintained on the lakes by each Government. . It is known that tge naval attaches of the British Emâ€" bassy at Washington have made a complete report to their Government upon the vessel, in which ths{ have clpa:sed it as a gunboat. Should comâ€" plaint be made, the State Department will respond by saying that the Gresâ€" ham and the other two similar cutters which are to be built for service on the lakes are simply for revenue marine service, and for nothing else, and will call attention to the fact that England was first to adfiethm novelty in the construction _ of revenue cutters which were built two years ago for the Canadian revenue marine, and that in addition to the novelty of their armaâ€" ment the Canadian vessels carry heavy T Em sn oi o ol Coaint n t o o ts asked if he were going to die.

A despatch from Hamilton says:â€"A fatal accident occurred on the Toronâ€" to, Hamilton & Buffalo Railway at the the western city limits about 5.30 on Wednesday evening, the unfortunate victims being Engineer James Facer and Fireman George Johnson, both of Waterford. The passenger train going west, which is due to leave the Hunâ€" ter street station a few minutes after 5 o‘clock, accidentally ran into an open switch at the " Y " just beyond Garth street, the fireman, it is supposed, not observing the signal, which was on his side, and consequently not knowing that ‘the sw&tch \(\;fllitapem.

Fortunately not more than two persons were hurt in the accident, but the victims were terribly injured, Fireâ€" man Johnson especially suffering an awâ€" ful death. His body was dug out from beneath the engine, and it was evidâ€" ent that he had been killed almost inâ€" stantly. ‘The injector pipe had peneâ€" trated the poor fellow‘s body, and while death was mercifully relieving him of his agony hot steam from the pipe was boring into his intestines. He left a widow and family. Engineer Facer ties, and the back of his head was smashed.

Fhe wind blew with hurâ€" ricane force and the downpour of rain was torrential. Much damage was done a.nd several persons were in jured by being struck by flying debris. Two hours before the storm broke the atâ€" mosphere gave indications of its comâ€" ing. It was dark and sultry and the clouds had a peculiar lowering appearâ€" ance. Among the buildings that stood in the pathway of the cyclone was the Of:era Comique, the roof of which was blown in. Most of the persons injured were cab drivers. A reporter of The Temps, who witnessed the cyclone from the top of an omnibus, says that it did not last for more than a minute. He suddenly saw what appeared to be a tall pillar of smoke advancing and imagined that there was a large fire. But almost immediately he saw the branches of trees sna.{;ped off _ and countless chimney pots hurled to the ground. Then the storm immediately passed away. Those on the omnibus were untouched. The west end of the city wholly escaped the fury of the storm, but eastward along the river way much destruction wascaused. Beâ€" tween the Pont St. Michael and Pont Neuf 40 large trees were torn out of the ground and blown into the Seine. Many persons who were passing across the bridge or along the river front were caught up by the wind and thrown into the river, but so far as known all of these were rescued. widow and family.

The Notorious Number One Captured at Boulogne â€"The Phonix Park Murderer in the Hands of the Police. A despatch from London says:â€"Tyâ€" nan, the notorious ‘"Number One," has been arresied at Boulogne on a Scotland Yard warrant, which was isâ€" sued in 1882. Tynan arrived in Europe by landing in Genoa, in August. He proceeded from there to Paris, where be remained for some days consorting with a number of the members of the dynamite faction of the Irish party. He has been travelling under the name of George Gordon and other aliases. When hbe arrived in Boulogne on Friâ€" day evening he put up at the Hotel Folkestone, where hbe did not hesitate to expound his Fenian views in the bar of the hotel. His movements had been watched from the time hbhe had arrived in krench territory. The local comâ€" missary of police, together with an English detective, burst into his room at four o‘clock in the morning. . The detective held aloaded revolver to his head, and threatened to shoot him if be resisted. Tynan was secured, and admitted his identity. Incriminating papers and a large sum of money were iound in his possession. The prisoner was lodged in a cell in the lgoule%gl_lo police station, and will be a.rruin in the morning, with a view to his exâ€" tradition to England. The warrant on which his arrest is made cparfis that the prisoner was concerned in the murâ€" ders of Lord Frederick Cavendish, Ckief Secretary, and Mr. Burke, Unâ€" der Secretary, in Pheonix park, adjoinâ€" ing the viceregal lodge in Dublin, on May 6, 1882, and with the manufacâ€" faurs of dynamite bombs for use in Engâ€" nd. Only three weeks are required to deâ€" velop a perfect mosquito from the egg. The same newspaper â€" commences a manyâ€"colunmnmed account of the conspirâ€" acy with a great scare head, beginning in the blackest letters ever used in its columns: "Great â€" Dynamite â€" Plot Against England." _ All the newspapers in the country treat tho matter in the same fashion. This will give some inâ€" dication of the popular sensation which has been created, and which has disâ€" tracted attention even from the criticâ€" al horrors in the east, that had raised public sentiment throughout England toa high state of indignation,. The Sulâ€" tan, in fact, has to thank Tynan and his fellowâ€"conspirators for _ bringing him some relief in an emergenc?'. which President Cleveland‘s Venezuela message furnished in December _ last. Wednesday‘s news develops the conspirâ€" acy more clearly, although the police still refuse to make public most of the information in their possession. There is no longer any doubt, apparently, that the conspirators intended to blow up Balmoral Palace when the Queen, Cfiv.ar and other royal personages were there.

A despatch from London, says: The Daily Telegraph says:â€"England learns how appalling has been the danger from which she has been rescued. T hat there should have been a great dynaâ€" mite conspiracy plotted in secret and gilence by men who are enemies of the buman race, that just at the moment when their plans were ripe the police should have surprised and arrested the ringleaders, and that one of the men, the chief of the band, should be a crimâ€" nal wanted for the last fourteen years, all these facts are elements in a story at once vivid, dramatic and terrible.
