(Special corre spondence of The Examiner.) On Monday, Sir John Thompson presented the evidence taken by the com mission eppointed last session to enquire nto the cha-ges made against Sir Adolphe Jaron ‘Lhe evidence is very voluminous snd will be taken into consideration by the House at a later date when it will be called upon to render a verdict thereon. Sir Joho Thompson in reply to Mr. Somerville said that the Guvernment had paid about $1300 custs in the legal contest- ation on the Manitoba School question—a small amount was still unsettled. It is uot the intention of the Government to bear the expenses connected with the hear- ing of the appeal of the Manitoba minority by the Governor.General in Council. Mr. Ouimet said that laet year a careful survey was made by an engineer of the Rustico Breakwater. The latest report in the department was received on the 24th November last. In moving for all correspondence regard- ing the scheduling of Canadian cattle in British porta, Mr. Sproule gave some in- teresting statistics showing the develop- ment of the export trade in cattle. In 1864 we exported to Great Britain 64 head of cattle. In 1879, 20,588, all beet cattle, fully finished for the market la 1884, 53,962; im 1888, 60,000; in 1890, 123,136; last year about 117,000. On Tuesday, Mr. Nathaniel Boyd, elected to succeed Mr, Robert Watson in the representation of Marquette, Manitoba, was introduced by Sir John Thompson and Mr. Hugh John Macdonald. Mr. Boyd is a conservative, and Mr. Watson is a grit Ag it stands now, the whole representation of Canada, west of Lake Superior, is con- servative. Mr. Ives stated that the total number of persons of all ranks in the Northwest Mounted P.lice service is 923, and the total expenditure for the current year will approximate $675 000. Mr. Perry has moved for a return show- ing the names and number of the employes dismissed from the Island Railway since the lst March, 1892, the dates of dismissal], the reason therefor ; also the names of any re- instated. In Committee on Supply, the case of the late Accountant and assistant Accountant of the House of Commons came up. Mr. Speaker explained that upon the Auditor- general informing him that there was a shortage of over $2,000, he made an inves- tigation and discovered that both officers had taken public moneys, They were at once suspended, and as the result of further investigation they were discharged. There was no truth in the statement that members of Parliament had overdrawn their accounts, nor was apy member implicated in any way. The defalcation amounted to $2,256 and had been made good by the Guarantee Company. In the course of a discussion on stock farms, Mr. Charlton said that the Percheron horses are going out of use in the United States, andcan now be bought for the price of ordinary farm horses. What Canada wants is hghter driving horses. If the Government would provide for fine coach horses, they would be conferring a benefit on the farmers. While the contingent expenses of the House of Commons were under considera- tion, Sir Richard Cartwright very haught- ily demanded an explanation of an item of $275 paid for engraving map of the Man- chester Ship Canal in four colors, and for printing 14,500 copies of the same. He wished to know ‘“‘in the name of won- der” what we wanted with 14,500 copies of the Manchester Ship Canal? He thought better use could be made of $300 than spending it in that way. Mr. Foster re- plied that Sir Richard would have to ask some member of the Printing Committee for an explanation. Whereupon Mr. Som- erville—an intensely disagreeable person— declared, as one of the committee who had never missed a meeting of that or any other committee in the ten years he had been « member, that it was new to him. He had never heard of such expenditure being ordered by the Printing Committee. Then Sir Richard, who thought he had pounced upon a decidedly iniquitous piece of job- bery, insisted upon a satisfactory explana- tion. If Mr. Foster did not know, surely somebody could enlighten the House. There was no excuse for the outlay. Mr. McMul- len, as another metaber of the Printing Committee, had no recollection of the ex- penditure being ordered, but it was notice- able that he was not anxious for Sir Rich- ard to pursue his enquiry. He opened up a new subject, in the hope of putting the Knight of BluejRuin off the scent. But the Royal Bengal Tiger—as Nicholas Flood Davin once dubbed him—was not to be diverted from his prey. He smelt a carcass in the sir, and he was licking his lips in anticipation. To quiet him, Mr. Foster had to promise to make enquiry. The pro- mise was speedily fulfilled. The Journals were examined, and it was discovered that on July 1, 1891, Mr. Maulock, one of the frout-seat grit members, obtained an order of the House for a copy of the report of Thomas Munroe, engineer of the Mances- ter Ship Canal, and that subsequent!y the Printing Committee—at whose meetings Mr. Somerville had never missed a mo- meni’s attendance, and of which Mr. Mc- Mullen was also a member—had ordered the report and plan to be printed at the c st before stated. It is unnecessary to say that Sir Richard had no more enquiries to make. But he was far from being satisfied He was egregiously disappointed, which was very painfully evident from his temper for some time afterwards. It should be borne in mind that while Parliament is in session it ia omnipotent in the matter of expenditures. It is almost impossible for the Government to control or oe ee os 16, i888. limit expenses, The Opposition are particu- larly fond of moving for the most expersive returns, utterly regardless of the fact that the information sought from them will be of practically no value. It is vain for the Government to protest. If the Premier raises any objection, half a dczen Opposi tion members are on their feet at once to declare that there is something the Govern ment wish to conceal. Then fer peace sake the return is ordered, prorogation comes before it is prepared, and next ses tion nobody looks at it, but it may cust hundreds or thousands of dollars to compile Asan illustration. the other day Mr McMullen moved for a return showing the birthplace, national origin, creed or charch to which belonging, and the date of ap- pointment of every person employed in both the inside and outside departments of the Civil Service, and the amounts of their sslaries. Sir John Thompson protested against the motion being passed, es very much of the informatiun could be gathered from the Civil Service list published every year. But it was no use, Mr. Laurier in- sisted and Mr. Charlton supported him, and Mr. McMullen reiterated his demand philesopbical dissertation to shew the reason- ableness of the request, Sir John Thompson had to give in, and the result is that corres- pendence will have to be entered inte wit! every government official of every grade —al! the thousands of country postmasters, ali the Customs Collectors, all the preventive officers, all the fishery overseers, every postal clerk and letter carrier, to find out where he was born, and whether he is Kng!ish, Irish,Scotch, French or Indian, and whether he is Method ist, Baptist, Catholic or Agnostic. Then when answers bave been received, they must be pat in shape, and the whele affair printed, while Parlisment wiil be prorogued, and next ses- sion the Government will be abused about the unnecessary ex pense. On Wednesday Mr, Pope moved tn favor of placing corn on the free list; and on Thursday Mr. Cleveiand moved to pl«ce coal oil in the same category. The former motion caused considere ble discussion, and on both the de- bate was adjourned, probably for the session, as next week the Finance Minister proposes announcieg any changes which are to be made in the tariff. On Thu sday Sir Johu Thompson tabled a report of the proceedings at the convention between Canada and Newfoundland, held in Halifax last fall. The convention appears to have resulted in nothing beyond an agreement to reduce postage between Canada and New- foundland to 3 cents, and « requeat to the Im- erial Goverament for th> appoiatment of a British Consul at St. Pierre. The question of the admission ot Newfoundland into the Con federation was brought up, but its consider- ation waa violentl —_ by at least one of the Newloundient delegates, and no progress was made on the subject. Mr. Weldon’s bill to disfranchise electors taking bribes has received a second reading, but a similar motion in tavor of Col. Amyot’'s bill to make voting compulsory was negatived. A revision of the voters’ lists will take place this year, It is probable that the bill shortly to be introduced in Parliament wil] greatly simplify the heretofore cumbersome machin- ery. The grits affect to be alarmed over the prospects of a general election before another session, and are warning their friends to get ready. The Opposition held @ caucus last week at which, it is said, very few French-Canadian members attended. Otherwise it was perfect- ly harmonious, Messrs. Casey andgForbes have not yet put in an appearance in the House. Short and Sweet. Rough on *‘Rats”—the chestnut gong. A cat with its fur ruffled doesn’t look fur-straight.
