SPECTAL

‘Sin CHARLES SPEAKS

i SPLENDID EFFORT.

Orrawa, April 10.

After routine, —

Sik CHARLES TUPPER rose to move the second reading of the bill ratifying the fishery treaty. He was received with loud applause, and commenced with the treaty of Paris in 1783, tracing the history

of the controversy over our fish- eries down to the present time. The rights given the Americans under the

treaty of 1783 were abnormal, such ag one nation does not ordinarily extend to an- other. They gave rise to irritation. After the war of 1812, Great Britain refused to renew them. No agreement could be reached at the treaty of Ghent, but the United States, finding that Great Britain was inexorable in her determination not to renew the liberties granted in 1783, came to terms, the result being the treaty of 1813. That treaty settled a number of points, but it did not bring peace. American fisher- men were seized for trespassing in Canadian waters and irritation still continued. This led to the renewal of negotiations culminat- ing in the Reciprocity Treaty of 1854. During the continuance of that Treaty all went well. It was a good treaty for both countries, and it was unfortunate for both countries that it terminated,

Sir Charles discussed at considerable length the causes of that treaty’s abroga- tion, and showed that it was the result of a grave misapprehension in the minds of the politicians of the United States. They blamed Canada for sympathizing unduly with the South. With the abrogation of the treaty of 1854 new troubles arose over the fisheries. Peter Mitchell’s navy was fitted out and began to play havoc among the American fishing schooners, fresh irritations was the natural result. Then came fresh negotia- tions, resulting inthe treaty of Washing- ton. When the Washington Treaty was terminated the Government of Canada was forced to revert to the policy pursued when Peter Mitchell was Minister of Marine. The result of this policy was to give fresh cause of offence. The result was the passage of the Edmunds Retaliatory act or nonintercourse act, as it should te called. After the so-called Retaliatoury Act had passed, he (Sir Charles) visited Wash- ington, and had an interview with Secretary Bayard. The resylt of that interyiew was a .proposal by Bayard to the British Government to appoint a commission, and the British Governmentap pointed Chamber lain, West and bimself their commissioners. When on the commission the Canadians, as they had always done, urged strongly and persistently that the tishery disputes should be settled on the basis of a treaty similar to those of 1854 and 1871. They were met by a point blank refusal. He read the offer he made.

Mr. Mills—That is an unrestricted offer.

Sir Charles—Yes, and I intended it to be unrestricted. The air in Canada was full of cries as to what the Americans would do, and we made an offer that left it perfectly free to them to say just what they would do. Their answer was that they would not make any kind of a commercial treaty with us—-that it was waste of time to talk of such a_ thing... He _ then took up the treaty, pointing out that in de- fining it he labored under the disadvantage of having his words quoted to-morrow in the American Senate, to prevent its adoption by that body. He must, therefore, be extremely guarded, and hoped the Opposition would patriotically abstain from pressing him too hard. He went through the treaty clause by clause, ex- plaining each and pointing out the bear- ings, ‘

He resumed at 9.45 o'clock, amid loud and prolonged applause, having spoken for four hours. ‘i

Mr. Davies followed.

Montreal, April 10.

Father Lamonde, of St. Dorothy Parish, County Laval, who, it seems, is disliked by his congregation, was waylaid on Sunday night by about adozen men, carried by force to the city, and taken before the Archbishop, who, however, refused to give them a hearing. The priest has taken action for assault against the parties.

Dr. Lavaller, Legislative Councillor, ac- cused of forgery, has been formally com- mitted to stand trial at the Queen’s Bench.

At a meeting of the Road Committee of the City Council to-day, {the City Surveyor was ordered to proceed with the cleaning of the streets, and a large force of laborers was set to work. The citizens’ indignation meeting is therefore cancelled.

Movement of Troops.

Massowan, April 10, The Italian troops, which are to return to Europe, will commence to embark on Friday. The corps of occupation consist- ing of 5,600 men will remain behind. The heat is intense. No Abysianian forces can be seen.

Friendly Relations.

Lonpon, April 10.

In the Commons this afternoon, the Speaker read a letter from Count Von Hatzfeldt, German ambassador, stating

that the German Reichstag had unani-

mously resolved that the vote of sympathy adopted by the House of Commons on the occasion of Emperor William’s death, and elicited from the Germans the deepest sympathy and liveliest gratitude, constitutes a signal proof of the friendly re- lations that exist between the two peoples. (Cheers followed the reading of the letter).

The Paris Presbytery to-day passed a resolution in favor of temperance, and call- ing on the people to maintain and force existing prehibitory laws and to work to- wards preparing the community fora gen- eral prohibitory measure. Strong regret was expressed at the unpresbyterian act of some members of another Presbytery whereby the Supreme Court of the Church was virtually censured, and men engaged in the liquor business made to rejvice.

Echoes of the Execution.

MILLMAN’S FAREWELL LETTERS TO THE JAIL OFFICIALS—A YOUNG WOMAN’S EFFORTS— THE GALLOWS TAKEN DOWN—SHERIEE CURTIS COMPLIMENTED, After the chain was removed from Mill man’s ankle yesterday morning, he said good-byeto those who were in che cell with him and asked to see Mr. Harvie and Mr. McNeill. When Mr. Harvie came in Mill- man handed him a letter, and the men held each other’s hands‘in a long, firm grasp as they said ‘‘good-by.” The unfortunate man at the same time thanked him for his kindness. Millman had a great regard for Mr. McNeill, and his parting with the lat- ter was most touching. The two strong men put their arms around each other's necks, and overcome by their feelings, sobbed their last farewell. Millman also gave Mr. McNeill a letter which we sub- join ; CHARLOTTETOWN, April 9th, 1888. DEAR Mr. McNEILL: I write to leave one last message for you, to thank you for being so kind tome. You were kind to me ever since I came here. I could always see in your face you were sorry for me, God has given youa kind heart. May He bless and keep you always. And, oh, my dear friend, if I may call you so, do give your heart to God. You don’t know the rest and peace which comes to thase who lean on Him. Good-bye for ever in this world. Yours truly, WILtiAM MILLMAN,

Mr. Harvie’s letter was as follows:

CHARLOTTETOWN, April 9th, 1888. Dear Mr. Harvie:

I write a last word to bid you good-bye, and once more to tell you how sorry f am for what Idid. It was very good and kind of you to forgive me, and I hope God has forgiven me. Thank you very much for all your kind- ness to me,

Yours truly

Wittram MILLMAN. . Late on the afternoon of Friday last a young woman approached the front en- trance tothe jail and began looking into the lower windows, murmur in an audible tone ** Poor Millman; I'll soon set you free.” Failing to obtain a glimpse of the condemned man there she walked around to the gate on the Richmond street side. She began pressing against this gate, and murmuring ‘‘ Poor Millman; if Ihad acouple of good men with me here, how soon we could break down this old yate and liberate you. Poor Millman !” She continued pushing and muttering for some time, until finally one of the officials, who had been watching her movements, appeared on the scene and frightened her away.

Sheriff Curtis has been congratulated by many of our citizens upon the manner in which the mournfnl event which took place yesterday morning was conducted.

Millman’s clothing and other effects are all packed up and are now in the jail office awaiting the arrival of some of his relatives.

The gallows was taken down to-day.
