COLD STORAGE FOR P. E. ISLAND.

eeeeiieee

Cold Comfort for Prohibition.

Ortawa, May 14.—Mr. Perry was intro- duced yesterday afternoon.

A discussion on tariff matters arose on the motion to go into supply.

Mr. Prior asked what regulations had been made governing those inthe taritt providing for the free importation of miv- ing machinery.

Mr. Paterson replied that he had not yet made any regulations.

Mr. Foster thereupon took Mr. Paterson to task for what he termed this unbusi- nesslike statement. ‘Three weeke had elapsed since the tariff was brought down, and although it became law onthe 22nd of April, no regulations had yet been made. Mr. Foser proceeded to comment on the claim that this was a business Government who knew just whattodo. They had found out their mistake. They were not half so sure as they were,and were now consulting the business men. That was right. He charged that, in almost all important particulars, the business inter- ests of Canada were in the same state of uncertainty as before April the 22ad.

The Grit spoils system was ventilated in both Commons aud Senate yesterday by Sir Charles Tupper and others.

On the discussion of the cold storage item Mr. Martin said that he was sorry to hear that arrapgements for cold storage were not completed in respect to P.. E. Island. He thought it unfortunate that his province should be the last to be con- sidered ia such matters.

In the Senate, the Secretary of State, in reply*to a question by Senator Ferguson, said that the Government was not aware that H. James Palmer, the commissioner appointed to enquire into charges uf offen- sive partizanship made against public officials in Prince Edward Isjand wrote to an accused official requesting him to appear before him, a letter containing the following words: “I may say that if you would care to see me before the investiga- tion takes place and talk the matter over, I will be glad to see you at any time be- tween three and five o’clock in the after- noon.

Representatives of the liquor interests met the premier and Sir Richard Cart— wrightand submitted an argument con- cerning the proposed plebiscite. They asked (1) that the plebiscite bill require a majority of all the votes on the list and not of all the votes cast, to indicate a consent to prohibition and (2) that the government should declare before hand in what wav it has proposed to raise the $8,000,000 revenue which would be lost by prohibi- tion.

owers are prepared for the possibility of having to enforce their demands.

Loxpox, May 12. —In its weekly review of the grain market the Mark Lane Ex- press comments upon the unfavorable cereal weather in England, and adde: In France the wheat is making little headway. The weather is distinctly ungenial. Frosts in Normandy and Bri:tany have been fre- quent. Ino Germany the weather is sum- merlike. The April rainfall has been ample, and plant life has grown rapidly. In Austria the wheat is extremely forward. Italy and Spain are both expecting good wheat crops. The promise of the winter sown corn in Poland, Russia, Roumania and Bulgaria appears to be fully up to the average. The spring sowing in Russia is in arrears in the chief wheat districts north but the usual large acreage of oats has been sown in the east and centre and bar- ley in the southeast,
