OTTAWA CORRESPONDENCE, On the aftervoon of yesterday, Mr. Fos- ter delivered, if not the greatest at least

the Parliament of Canada. Up to that time the debate had been growing dull, and i¢ was quite common for some of the best speakers in the House to hold forth with empty galleries and benches. The announc: ment that Mr. Foster was to speak yesterday revived the interest in the discussion. Before he was long en his feet almost every seat in the House both Government and Opposition, was oc- cupied,and what is unusual! in the Hcu *, of Commons everybody listened. In mag- periods “the eloquent Finance | Minister « efended the policy of the Gov ernment from the inception of the Mani- toba Scboo) difficulty.

Mr. Davies moved the adjournment of the debate and tuok the fJvor after dinner. The general opinion is that Mr. Davies never made £0 so poor a speech on a great question s nce he entered Parliament. It must be ad- mitted that he undertook a most difficult task. Following the greatest orator in Canada was in itself something hard to overcome. But the extremely awkward attitude— or rather attitudes— of his party hampered him at every sentence. At one time he would admit that the minority had a grievance, but a moment after he would protest against what he called “co- ercion of Manitova.” In solemn tones he declared that it was impossible fur Mr. Greenway to recede from the position he had taken; and he closed by declaring that the Liberal party if they got into power wouli grant ful: rel’ef to the minor.'y - to use his own. words, “give them full meas ure pressed down and rnnning over.’ Everybody saw the ridiculousness of these contradictory declarations. If Greenway eanvot and will not yield an inch, how is Mr. Davies going to give the minority such an extremly ful) measure of justice without “ coercing Manitoba,” or, in other words, passing a Remedia! Bill in the Federal Pariiament? Mr. Davies’ specch was very labored, and towards the close he followed his manu cript very closely. It is a matter of general remark that Mr. Davies was not well supported by the pre- sence in their seats of the Liberal mem- bers durirg the delivery of his speech, which he had evidently prepared with great lator. Only four French Liberal members were seen within the precincts of the House of Commons during the two hours in which Mr. Davies occupied the floor.

The French Liberals are perfectly and hopelessly demoralized, and it will take extreme measures to made many of them rupport the Opposition.

=a 8%; BRIBEs,

Siz,—The Guardian accuses me of mis- representing the action of the Citizens League in regard to the rewards. This is truly rich. The Guardian to charge any one with misrepresentation! But where comes this “misrepresentatiow’ of the League? The Guardian says “‘it is not practical under their methods for a man to buy and pay for intoxicating liquors in Charlettetown or e'sewhere and then ob- tain the $5 reward.” Ido not pretend to know all the “methods” of the league, but I do know that their standing offer pub- lished daily in the Guardian (which I ad- vise the-editor to read) flally contradicts this statement. The informer under this offer no matter who he is can claim the reward, and if the league was a respons- ible institution they could be compelled to pay it. “Scott Act” certainly ‘ admits that it is proper for the customs to offer and pay rewards for the conviction cf smugglers” under conditions and restric- tions which render it impossible to use them as a means to increase offences. The Guardian and the league are welcome to all the comfort they can take from this. In tris he * gi: es away his entire case,” in % manner most painful to $5 bribers—he Supplies an argument which even the Guardian’s sophistry cannot put aside. R-ferring to the “methods” of the league th: Guardian hints that the published of fer of $5 for “evidence that will convict” is not bona fide, but merely a measure of deception. Let us have a chap‘er from that paper in explanation of those “meth- ole.” Some of them—tricky one+-—we are already acquainted with. If there is any virtue in the background, not yet brought to light, let the Guardiav speak up.

THE ARMENIAN QUESTION,

Principal Grant has addressed a letter to the Toronto Globe, calling for ail for the unfortanate Armenians. “If we can do only a little,” he says, “let us do that at any rate, and do it promptly.

Christendom stands disgraced before the

tribunal of God and man, apd as we share in that disgrace so shall we in the respon sibility.” The Principal continues : “Never before did I feel more keenly that we have no voice, because we have never asked for it, in directing the policy of the British Government. But I do wonder that a strong man does not rise in the House of Commons and urge the Gov-

ernment to Open negotiations with | the United States with the object of taking conjoint activo». Surelr

the heart of = people who have been trying so longto spread the light in Turkey would respond to such an overture. They have made on») enswer to the public ad- dresses in which Mr. Balfour and Mr. Chamberlain urged this upon them, but a

formal proposal should be made. Even were that refused, how our hearts would vlow if Britain decided to dare all risks

and act alone! We nave vo right to ask, or even tofsuggest it. We are apparently content that Brits: sha!l bear a | the bur- dens of the Emp r-; our only discontent being, not with ourselves, but with her. because she is noteager to tex for our advantage the bread, tie cheese, the buttcr, and the meat her people eat, while we e¢x- clude her products. Bat what true glory would be tiers if she decided to enter on the crusade of mercy to which all Chricten- dom is summoned !

The Week remarks that the publication in Englan?, with the past few days, of the Blue Book on Turkish affairs reveals a shocking state of things, and terribly em- phasizes all that Principal Grant says. The British Ambassador at Constanti- nople reports that twenty-five thousand Armenians have been butchered by the Turks, and that if we add to this number the massacres repectiog which there are no details, the estimate may be inerea-ed toa much higher figure. In committing these atroci:ies the Turks practically have had the hearty support and eucourage- ment of Russia. Which nation isto be the more despised and execrated ?

HEAVY ICE IN THE STRAITS,

Sir,—I see in the Pioneer, a statement by the editor on a question asked by Hon. John Yeo, of the Minister of Marine, c ».- cerning the Mail Service here. The editor of the Pioneer is trving to make the pablic beheve that Mr. Yeo had received a false report from Mr. Lord, and that Mr. Costi gan did not take much jains to find out the particulars,

The editor of the Pioneer should inform himself before he accuses any one of mak- ing a fulse report of the Straits here. His statement is “:hat Mr. Costigan did not know anything about what he was talking, since exac!ly the reyerse has been the Case —the winter hus been a remarkably mild one, and the real trouble, so far as climate is concerned, in contrast w.th other years, has been the want of ice in the Straits.”

Now, the editor is making a false report, and does not koow what he is talking about. The winter has been remarkably rough, and there has been, and is now, m re heavy ice in the Straits than there has heen for the last thirty years, The oldest in- hab tants of the settlement state that they never remember seeing the straits so pack- ed with heavy, rough ice, as they are thie winter. It never was known (until this winter) when there was a few days of North-east winds, but the Straits would be clear of ice. This winter we had nearly a week of North-ea t winds, and only made about a mile of water. Capt. Muttart re- ports that he never saw such heavy ice in the Galf. Whenercs i-g the other day, they passed over a large field of ice asd came to a crack in the field. Cant. Mutat 10-ked ii, and it was five feet thick of solid ice. He has cro<sed for over 20 yeare, every winter, and he etates that Le nov r saw such heavy ice in the Strait:.

] think that there is very little room to complain of the way we have received our mails since they have been crossing here. Mr. Brecken, P.O. Inspector, and. Mr. Lord, the agent of the Minister of Marine, are very anxious to co all that is in. their power to give the public a daily mail, but they cannot rule the weather.

The first mail arrived Jan, 23r?, at 11 a’clock p.m, and crossed on the 24tn We had six crossings in January, 23 in Felriarv, and upto the 16th «f Mareh they have male thirteen crossings «sch war, a mail every week diy. Not too bau. Ti.is ‘8 acorrec *'a'cment.

She Could Interfere Seriously With K Scheme of Conquest.

New York, March 16.—A correspondent in Tokyo writes: Most of the ships of war in these waters have been ordered in haste to Corea, but only with precautionary de- sign. The British fleet is «till the strongest, and, if supported by the French and Ger- man fleets, could easi'y defy all opposition England, however, bas a powerful arma- ment, which, united with the Japanese navy, could interfere seriously with Rua - sian echemes of conquest. The rt*itude of Great Britain is watched with eager inier- est by all nationalities in the far East, though there is little expectation thac she will take up arms against the Northern Empire.

As for Japan, there is no |:kelihood that she will risk the chances of war for many years tocome. Folitical agitators talk wildly of challenging the world in defence of Japan’s rights, but the Government can be trusted to act with sober judgment. At the first outbreak ef incend:ary oratory iv Parliament, when Opposition members endeavored to commit the Legislature to dangerous declarations of hostility to fur eign nations, the Emperor interposed with an edict, suspending the session for ten

days. By counselling this resolute course Marquis Ito showed that he coa- sidered it more important to

preserve friendly international relations than to reconcile domestic differences. He worked hard last year to win the favor of a large party in the House cf Repre- sentatives, and thus secure the appropria- tion need for strengthening the army and navy, but the support vouchsafel him at the opening of Parliament may be with- drawn inthe anger excited by his ar’ it- rary dealing. Between two evils he chose the least. Sooner er later he can count upon obtaining the requisite supplies, whereas the mischief of an intemperate legislative onslaught upon Russia might have been irreparable.

Herbert Boo.h Will Leave Cana la.

Toroxto, March 16.—A_ special from Winnipeg says Herbert Booth, head of the Salvation Army in Canada, will give up command and leave the country June 1 next. Beoth further says that he will not succeed his brother Ballington as head cf the army in the States.

The Trouble at the Jo =gins,

Awnerst, N.S., March 16.—Mattera at the Joggins are still if a serious state and grave fears are entertained that’ further serious breaches of the peace may take place. Some 150 men have barricalel themseives night and day inthe H. W. Hall since last Thursday’s riot. It is said they are supplied wlth brick bats, clubs re firearms, andthe euthorities are de- fied.

Six Mill'eus of Wheat.

Wiynirec, March 16.—S. A. McGaw, Manager of the Lake of the Woods Milling Company, in an interview said there are six million bushels of wheat in the farm- er’s hands at the present time. In March of last year all the wheat. of the Province was brought up by the millers. McGaw adds that the farmers must cot expect the present prices to continue. ‘The millers. he says, do not want to buy wheat for some time to come, and prices must come down from fifty ceuts, Brandon freight rates.
