Seven thousand hands are idle, and where, a little more than twelve months ago, $3,000,000 in annual wages was being paid, now less than halfa million repre- sents the yearly outlay. Itis to be said that woollens are cheaper in the United

THE IfALIANS IN AFRICA,

Mritain Has Looked With Favor Upon the Itallan Campaign.

Loxpox, March 13.—The important an nouncement made by the Times this morning, and cabled to the Associated Press last night, that the Egyptian treops would advanc: up the Nile forthwith to occapy Dongola, was officially confirmed by the foreign office today. The Times

also said editorially of this announcement, with a good deal of ostentation : —

“It need hardly be eaid that the advance upon Delagoa will greatly benefit the Italians, and the British government must have had this desirable object in view in assenting to the British advance.’

Taken in connexion with the evidences that Count Golachowski has succeeded by his visit to Berlin in strengthening the lcs of the existing dreibund, Great Britain’s diversion in Egypt in favor of @ member of the dreibuud is re garded as extremely s'gnificant.

it must be borne in mind, however, that Great Britain has looked with a favorable rye upon the Italian campaign in Africa wil along, thongh she has hitherto declined wtive assisiance, as an Italian success vould tend to aid the prestige cf European irms in Africa, tnd consequentiv to the British imterests in the

Loxpvox, March 13.— The Standard pub lishes a despatch from Madrid saving sincere satisfaction is visible among all classes at the improved relations in con- sequence of the Washington government ignoring the resolutions of congress, Ministeral organs claim itis a success for Spanish diplomacy, while the oppos:tion papers contend the danger is postponed, not averted.

Cannot Inspect British Fortifications,

Wasuixetex, March 13.—-It is learned that permission to go to Bermuda and other British fortified ports near the United States coast has been refused to United States army officers since Mr. Cleveland’s Venezuelan message was seut to congress. The reason for this 18 obvious. American officers might be held in dis- trust as persons seeking information about the British fortifications and the war department did not propose to take any chances.

Was She Murdered For Insurance,

Teroxto, March 13—The discovery was made here yesterday that Mrs. Ham- mond, of Gravenhurst, Gn the charge of poisoning whom, William Hammond, is under arrest at that place, abouta mouth before, desth took out a life insurance policy of $3,000, payable to her husband; also, that while in Buffalo at the time of the marriage of the couple, an insurance

licy was placed on Mrs. Hammonds life. Th he theory of the prosecution now will be that Hammond deliberately planned the murder of his wife, even from the time of his marriage, in order that he might secure the insurance money.

He stated the informa- tion was not given him under the seal of the confessional, but simply in his profee- sional capacity, and that he had given h's promise not to tell it again to any one, As Judge Tait is away from town, no acticn will be taken till he returns.

—Montreal Gazette: The Government came into power in Manitoba at the beginning of 1888. The expenditure in the preceding year was $520,190. The gross debt in the same time has been in creased from $3,500,000 to very near'y $5,000,000. Under its administration the Province’s debt per head bas become the largest of any of the provinces in Canada, and the expenditure per head the largest of any but British Columbia. As the people of the Province, apparently, approve of the measures which rendered these in- creases necessary, and as the Government proposes to tax the people of the Province itself for the further sums required to meet the growing ¢xpenditure, it nay not be an outsider’s business to be severe in cri- ticism of the situation. It may be pointed out, however, that the record of the Lit- era] administration in Manitoba, like the record of every other Liberal Provincial administration, serves to make ridiculous the claim of the Liberal party at Ottawa, that its accession to power would mean any economy in the finaocial adminstra— tion of the Dominion. There never has been in Canada a Liberal Governmen’, Federal or Provincial, that bas curtailed expenditure, or lowcred taxes, or reduced the debt. There never has been in Canada a Liberal Government, Federal or Proviu- cial, but has increased the expenditure, or augmented the taxes, or added to the debt. In its fivancial record the Greenway Gov- ernment of Manitoba, is like every other Liberal administPation Canada has ever had.

THE ABYSSINIAN WAR,

General Baratierit Talks About the Defeat —Tempted to Commit Suicide,

Rome, March 13.—Aceording to ‘the Agenzia d'Italia, thirty thousand der- vishes are investing Kassala, the town

Italians,

General Baratieri, who was superseded in command of the Italian forces in Africa in an interview at Mas-owah on the rea sons for attackiag the Abyssinians at Adowab, said the information he ere led him to believe that it was easy oc cupy the positions he assailed, He athe ed that the force of Abyssinians would re- treat. Instead of doing so they inflicted a defeat ov the Italian army, and he was ready to submit to the consequences.

The Tribune publishes an interview with Gen. Baratieri, in which he dennd

that the government urged him to attack the Abyssinians, He added that all his

generals favored making the attack. The victory for the Italians had been partially won and was virtually assured when the native battalions became panic stricken. This produced disorder among the Italian troops. Gen. Baratieri declared he had nothing to reproach h'mself for, but con-

fessed that in a moment of madness after the defeat he was on the verg* of commit-

ting suicide. He remembered his fansily

and wished to spare them shame.

The Question of the Duration Of Parliament,

CHANGES IN SMELT FISHING LAW.

— —

Improved Rifle for the Yolunteers— Remedial Bill Division.

Orrawa, March 17.

Nearly all the time of the House was taken up vesterday afternoon in a discus- rion on the question of the duration of Parliament, the subject being introduced by Mr. Edgar, who protested agains: any reference of the question to the Supreme Court as the life of the present Parl a- ment would expire on the 25th of April.

Mr. Martin made a vigorous kick against the question being brought up in an irre~ gular way, as it had been, thereby taking up the time of the House.

Sic Charles Tupper, Bart., said he hoped that Mr. Edgar, who raised the question would take due note of Mr. Martiu’s remarks. He did not, however, quite regard it as Mr. Martin did. The question was one of great im- portance, and the government did not object to its discussion. In view of the expression of opinion, the government would consider the question promptly, and arrive ata conclusion which would be stated tu the House shortly.

Hon. Mr. Dickey informed Mr. Casey that the government had chosen an im- proved rifle for the use of the volunteers on the “report of experts, and that after mature consideration the Lee-KEnfield Magazine Rifle has been selected, whch was practically the same as the Lee-Met- ford.

Hon. Mr. Costigan, replying t» Mr Davies, stated that changes had been made

in the smelt fishing regulations. It was found that ice formed in some sections

sooner than in others, ani that the fishery officers were therefore authorized to fix the dates of fishing with a view to le'ting all the fishermen have about two anda half months fishing.

If the present arrangement to close the rem‘dial bill debate at to-day’s sitting be carried ovt, it will be bread daylight on Wednesday morning before the division belJs will ring-
