An Example of Liberal Beonomy |

Ortawa, May 20.

Mr. Quinn, of Montreal, raised once more, yesterday afternoon, the question of the dicmiseals, especially on the Lachine Canal. Mr. Monk, of Jacques Cartier, followed, giving instances where officers after twenty or more vears service, had re-

ceived notice at 9 o’clock at night order-

ing them to depart early next morning

giving over the houses .they occupied, aud leaving them with their families on one night’s notice.

Hon. Mr. Blair made po reply.

When the vote for Rideau Hall main- tenance was reached, Hon. Mr. Tarte asked for $18,000 in addition to the usual $8,000 for heating and lighting.

It was pointed out by Mr. Bennett that this was $4,000 more than the vote for this current year,

Mr. McInerney showed also that it was $4,000 more than the sum actually ex- pended in the last year of the late govern- ment, and more than $3,006 in excess of the average expenditure during the Jast four years of Tory rale.

Mr. Burnette amused the House by read- ing the declarations of Mr. Muloch who year after year protested agaiust a smaller outlay than he vow asked.

Mr. Mcloerney moved that the amount of the vote be reduced by $3,000, leaving it somewhat larger than the late govern- ment had found necessary for several years back.

Mr. Kaulbeck seconded the motion. A long and heated discussion took place, which resulted in the amendment being lost when put to vote,

LATEST NEWS BY WIRE AND MAIL.

_ Monvrear, May 18.—One of the most interesting items on the jubilee pro- gramme was announced to-day. Itis a

‘special jobilee service to be held in the

church of Notre Dame. Since the church has been built thie is only the second time that such a service has been held theré. The last time was to cele- brate the battle of Malakoff. The an- nouncement is considered the highest pos- sible proot of the loyaliy of the French Canadian Catholice.

Loxpon May 18.—In an interview in Reading prison yesterday, Oscar Wilde said : “My health physically is good, but my brain is weary. Asto my future J aim in the bands of a few faithful friends. To themd will deliver n yself up, and with them chiefly lies my destiny. To them alone will I communicate my dear- est ambition. At present my brain is too weak, too worn, too tired; but the power that ié within me will again restiace ite? sway. I shall write again soon, but not yet. Iam too tired, too distressed.”

“Do you propose leaving England ? ” was asked. 2 | “Not at present,” was his repy. “I am in the bands of a few friends. They will decide everything for awhile. Ido not intend to efface myself. I shall get to work before loag, in fact, the very mom- ent I feel well enough. For the present, I shal] retire into absolute seclusion. The public will hear from me through my next work, and not before it is ready, and not by any other means.”

Loxpox, May 18.—London is sti]] with- out accounts of the battle at Domokos from the Turkish side, but it is evident tbat the Greek defeat was complete and decisive. An Italian officer with the Greeks puts their -killed and wounded at 2,000, bet probably this is much exag- gerated. It is believea that Edhem Pasha will insist upon the eurrender 10 him of the passes over che Othryis range before he consents to an armistic, but save for a | small force of Turkish cavalry following the retreaing Greeks at a distance of 2,000 yards, the Turks have nov attempted to attack the Greek rear guard. The war is virtually ended. The crown Prince headed the retreat, and bis headquarters are pow established close to Devenfourka Pass, a very narrow gorge through the Utarys range, about 12 miles from Mamia. Loxpon, May 19.—The correspondent of the Daily Telegraph at Athens ‘says be has absolute proofs that one of the powers has made serious underhaud attempts to undo the work of the European concert.

Orrawa, May 18.—The report that Mr. Laurier will sail for England by the Van- couver is not true. He and his party will sail from New York by the Lucania on the 5th June, along with Sir Henry Strong, who goes over to take his seat as member of the judicial committee. ~ConsTANTINOPLE, Mav 18.—It transpirts that the Czar made a direct appeal to the Sultan to order his troops to cease hostili- ties and arrange an armistice, and this coupled with the fact that most serious results would have ensued if Turkey had persisted in her defiant attitude, brought about the present state of affairs. The Turkish minister of foreign affairs called upon the foreign ministers this afternoon to convey to them the Sultan’s decision to arrange av armistice. It is now believed that the terme of peace will be negotiated directly between Turkey and Greece.

Toroxto, May 18.~—The Mail and Empire special from Ottawa gives an un- cestirmed rumor that the Government has received an expressicn ef opinion from the Coloniai Office, adverse to the propcsed discriminatory tariff proposals.

Havana, May 18.—A serious railroad accident has occurred near Vega, Alta, province of SantaClara. A freight tra'n consisting of 28 cars, while on its way to

engineer. The loosened cars ran fast down a hill, and near a curve collided with a passenger train. The cars caught fire, the evgineer, a gendarme and five passengers were killed, and 27 passengera were wounded.

ArtHens, May 19,1 a. m.—The com-

commander at Arta, which followed thé raising of the flag of truce by the former, was in Turkish and ran as follows:

“On condition that no Greek soldier belonging toany arm of the service re- mains on the territory of the Ottoman em- pire, we have orders tbat an armistice shall be concluded on sea and land with a view toarriving at and understanding.

(Signed) “YCSSUF,” “Chief of statf.”

New, Yorx,May 18—A Herald cable from Vienna says: At a large conference of Austrian maoufacturers, held here today it was resolved to call upon the Govern- ment to. endeavor to conclude interna- tional agreemenis with European powers with a view of ‘‘effectually meeting the common danger to European economy arising from the prohibitive tariff policy of the United States.”
