is the best known remedy for diarrhea, whether arising from teething or other causes. Twenty-five cents a bottle. Be

What Capt. Wylie Says About It. AN ENQUIRY TO BE HELD.
QurEBec, May 23. Captain Wylie, of the Polynesian, says that upon meeting the Cynthia he blew the whistle twice and backed his ship. He was on the right side, so much sv that he could go no farther. The Cynthia tried to cross

accident. Captain Wylie, the first ofticer, and a pilot were on the bridge, and all who were on deck at the time on beard the Polynesian state they did their best to avoid a collision. Itis not decided how the Polynesian passengers will be sent for- ward, but the mails will be despatched by the Buenosayrian to-day. Monrreit, May 23,
The Harbor Commissioners will hold an inquiry into the circumstances of the Puly- nesian-Cynthia collision, having the power either with or without formal complaint having been made. Capt. Shaw, Port Warden, has gone to the scene of the cat- astrophe for the purpose of making an official report.
