| A Sensation in St. John. '
PETITION FOR THE REMOVAL OF TRUSTEES. ~- A FAMILY SKELETON EXPOSED.
The heirs of the late J. W. Nicholson, a wealthy resident of St. John, bave filed a petition in the Eyuity Court, in that city, praying that J. McGregor Grant and Ronald Cameron Grant, two trustees of the estate, be removed and others appuinted in their stead. The petitioners aliege that the trus-
‘tees are guilty of ¢xtravagence in the man-
agement of the estate, and that they cannot | do any business with them ; that they have} no confidence in them and want them put. out. The allegations in the petition are | very lengthy, filling over three columns in the St. John papers, The portion of the petition which is creating the most interest , is the seventeenth paragraph which is a confidential letter addrarsed by J. McGregor Grant to Mrs. Dr. Maclaren, formerly Mise Nicholsen, and one of the heirs, in reply to & joint letter of the petitioners concerning the management of the estate. It starts as follows :— My Dear Axiie.—When I perused the joint letter of yourself and sisters, dated Ist Neptember, and addressed to the trustees col- lectively, 1 could not not hely being shocked at its contents. It was not only a threatening letter, but also a cowardly and insulting one, such as you ought never under any circum- stances to have sent to your uncle, whom you have so repeatedly acknowledged as true and faithful and valuable friend to yourself and sisters, and to hom you all pretended to be so affectionately attached. Furthe: more, it showed a venom worse than contemptible, for it threatened injury to your ow® first cousin— the chief mourner at your father’s and mothet’s tuneras; the piaymate of your childhood who never did you the slighest injary, or ever said an unkind word to you. if I chese to retaliate, as you richly deserve, I could: put the Dominion Government in pos-! session ef information which would justify them either now or at any time within fifty years in seizing the books and property of the estate, and leaving you all simply paupers | with the reputation of the family irretricvably ' ruined, and the yp abiic astonisbed with revel tions of twenty years of the most succesful fraud uot only on the government but on |their own customers. The question has often | been put to me: how has Mr. Nicholson accu- mulated such a large fortune when other ‘ligvor dealers could not? I and four others .in St. John could answer that question and | teli how, night after night, the shutters of the stores would be putup, the door carefully locked and barrei, all lights extinguished ‘except the lower storey, ali chinks-in the wia- dows covered over, the nuts cautiously taken off the copper hasps of the customs bonded warebouse, the doors opened, cask after cask ‘rolled out, one-fourth of the contents trans- ferred to empty casks ready in the duty paid warehovse ; the quantity abstracted replaced with alcohol, water and coloring mixture ; the ‘adulterated casks marked with chalk on the chime, rolled back into the bonded warehouse and afterwards sold to the public, and the overnment defrauded of the duty on the quantity abstracted. Every cask that came into the store, whether of brandy, whiskey, wine or gin, was treated in this man- ner, andthe profit of every quarter cask javeraged $25 and the invoice books in my ' possession will show that the estate is liable ‘to the Dominion Government for nearly $300, - 000—or in other words the duty on one fourth of every cask of liquor imported. I am not desirous of attempting to injure you, as you | have attempted to injure me Fortunately ;none of my family were ever engaged in the liquor trade, and theref ‘re any exposure, al- though it might be intently gratifying to the St. John public would be harmless to myself ‘and family. But you can now see that your own selfishness apd base ingratitude may at ‘any time place you all in an unfortunate position; and so serious is the offence in | the eyes of the law, that had the particulars | been divulged in the lifetime of your father would have cost him his liberty. 1 do not intend that either you or any of your ‘sisters shall become trustees and I think that la tigid cress examination in court would prove the inadvisa bilty of it, and you shall not, as you pertinently express it, ‘ Deprive Donald of the means of a livihood,’ although you ‘may well blush for the source from which you derive your own wealth, which accumuiated by fraud and the misery of others, will probably eventually prove to be more of a curse than a blessing.” J. Macgregor Grant is an uncle of the petition- er: and Ronald Cameron Graut is a cousin.

cincinnati iain Femperance at Summerside.
The Roman Catholics of Summerside, have organized a temperance society. This is a practical step in the right direction. Up- wards of fifty of Father Gregory's congrega- tion have joined already, and a committee consisting of Lr. McIntyre, A. J. McLellan, Dr. Gillis, John Gaffaey, and A. B. Strong was appointed to draft a constitution and bye-laws for the government of the society Mr. Charles Murphy, of the Customs Depart- ment, was secretary of the meeting. From his report we learn that after the work of enrol/ment was finished the chairman favored those present with a practical temperance speech. He said, in this age, who indulged in strong drink lost caste in society as well as the confidence of the public; that as soon as a young man began the use of strong drink he was on the downward grade an’ the respectable portion of the community wanted this fact to be understood. As he wislied te see the young men of this town ascending instead of descending in the social scala, he would advice them to join a temperance society abd become earnest temperance workers. Father Gregory thanked the meet- ing for the active co-operation it had shown with him in the cause of temperance, and the large number present he took as a guar- antee «f sympathy in the movement, He said that he hoped in addition to a temper- ance society to be able to form a literary club and gymnasium, where mental and physical culture could be obtaiaed by the members of his congregation.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
Sir,— As the editor of the Patriot labors
under the delusion that he can snub a sup-
porter with impunity by refusing ‘o publish my short letter in reply to ‘**Onlooker,” or even acknowledge the reseipt of it, I trust you will give the following letter space in your columns, and extend me the courtesy
‘which I have invariably received at your
hands, Nemo.
To the Editor of the Patriot, —
Sir,—As your issue of the 18th October, containing the letter of “Onlooker” in reply to **Nemo” was not received by me until weeks alter its publication, I now hasten to answer it and beg s for a few remarks thereon. Although ‘“Onlooker” contradicts my statements in reference to Pilot and Biackbird, yet they are so readily endorsed by the general public that his rather frequent and reiterated denunciations give me no con- cern. The length of “Oalooker’s” insipid and profitless composition clearly indicates that my few remarks struck “ile” despite his frantic efforts to fortify his position, or refute them. Such being the case, i have no desire to bandy words with “Onlooker,’ who in- herits »2etrong desire to strut in borrowed p umes, and to be heard for his much speak- ing. As “Onlooker” gives me advice in the last paragraph of his letter, he might with profit study the old adage, ‘“‘it is better to be just than generous,” and learn from it the im- propriety of endeavoring to lesd by any such transparent liberality. ,

Shifting Ordnance Competition.
| Exception has been taken on beha.f of the
Prince Edward Island Garrison Arti lery, winners of the recent vhifting ordnance com- petition at the Island of Orleans, Quebec, to the published report of the subsequent com- petition held by permission at Halifax, pe- tween three batteries of the Ist Brigade, for second and third places. In the report the lucal p»pers compared the times made at Halifax and Quebec, under totally different conditions, and peai.ed the Halifax men for their seemingly superior performance, The camparison was unfortunate, but we are sure
it wes not made with any intention of doing
injustice to the Islanders. Their fame as ex- pert and efficient artillerymen is so well es- tablished that no one will be disposed to question their right to the first prize they secured at Orleans, or to take it for granted that had others there competed the resuit would have been different. There were five entries for the shitts—P. E. Island and Mon- treal one battery each, and Halifax three batterics. The first-named completed the shifts in very good style and time, considering the adverse circumstances; Montreal, after commencing, abandoned the undertaking cn account of the unfavorable conditions of weather and ground; and the Halifax bate teries, after vainly waiting for two or three days for the weather to improve, had then to go home without atrial. Under the circum. stances the s@ond and third prizes would have been left with the Association had not appli- cation been made and permission granted for the three batteries to compete at home for these honors; but in doing this, and attempt- ing to make the best showing possible, we are sure they had no desire to detract from the credit attaching to the performance of the P. KK, Island Brigade.—Militia Gazette.

The characteristic of the Dominion Gov- ernment is te be awake and active. Post- master General Haggart’s negotiations with the governments of Jamaica, the Leeward Islands and Barbadces for direct parcel post and interchange of money orders is a good move. The future increase of trade will be accelerated by the extension of these services.
There is much interest in the return of seal-skins brought into Victoria, B. C., this season, the Canadian catch having been considerably jarger than last year, while it appears that the larger portion was not ob- tained in Behring Sea, but on the coast to the south. The more light is thrown upon this subject, the more preposterous do the claims of the United States appear.
Lord George Hamilton, first lord of the admiralty, ina speech at Bedford a few days ago, said the British navy was su- perior to those of the rest of Europe or of Awerica. He praised the coolness of the captain and crew of the lost* craiser Ser- pent. Such disasters, he said, are the price England pays for being mistress of the seas. He added that the admiralty intended to pension the widows and to remunerate the families of the men who were lost.
The fact that among the sealers bringing their catch of skins into Victoria, B. C., was a German vessel, is worthy of note. It suggests one of the difliculties connected with the settlement of the Pacific seal ques- tion. No arrangements made between the British and the United States authoriti.s, even with the concurrence of Russia, v:ould bind the other maritime powers in these open seas. Sealers from Germany, France, or even Japan, would not be bound by any such restrictions, and would have the field
in Texas. The death rate is 80 per cent,
all to themselves.
