Orrawa, May 29.—-Wheu the House of Commons went into committee yesterday afternoon Hon. Mr. Foster again pointed out that the mode of operating the prefer- ential tariff had not been explained. It was, he said, a novel proposition that the Government should raise or lower duties by order-in-Council. But if the Liberals proposed that, they were compelled to tell Parliament on what basis it was to be decided. What countries would be estitled to preference? It was proposed to Jet in all countries whose tariff averages lower than our _ preferential clause, it would admit the manufacturers of nearly all the manufacturing countries in the world, aud if so the proposition was tatal to many Canadian industries. If not the Ministers ought to say so. The Government was asking for power not sought or enjoyed by the Imperial Govern- ment or any other responsible Min:ster. Mr. Laurier, replying, said thet when the Government prepared the sixteentn clause they overlooked the whole world, and found that the only country which could qualify under the section was Great Britain. The Premier did not explain the process by which that conclusion was reached or the method by which another conclnsion might be reacbed if @ case arose respecting some other country. Sir Hibert Tupper pointed out that Mr Laurier had admitted that new South Wales might comein. This showed that the Ministerial survey of the universe had been incomplete. He asked Mr. Laurier what was the average rate of duty in New South Wales now. He got not an answer. He then asked whether Mr. Laurier could tell what was the average under the present condition of the tariff. There wae still noanswer. Nor could Sir Charles get the etatemert of whether the comparison of tariffs wae made on the basis of an average tarift or did the words “on the whole” contemplate some other basis. The Government has taken over Monday for Ministerial business. Thie leaves no private members day, except Monday week w! uch is reserved. FAST ATLANTIC SERVICE. Twenty-one Knot Boats to be put on.

Loxpox, May 28.—The Queen has cen- sented to review 10,000 children attending board and non-board schools in Londoncn June 23. The proposal that Her Majesty should thus recognize the great work of elementary education now being carried on in London originated with the Prince of Wales. Tororo, May 27.—Mail and Empire’s Winnipeg special saya: ‘Some of the di - charged Northwest civil -e vants have laid their cases before the Governor-General aud His Excellency has promised to eee Mr. Laurier. It is thought that the guillotine has been removed from the Northwest for the time Leing.” Wamnirec, May 28.—The remnant of a large party of Galicians who reached here refused to go to work, even when it was offtr.d by farmers. They are loafing in the government shed at government ex- pense, and apparently satis stied. Commis- sioner McCreary would not tolerate jit longer and turned them out. These are the people in connection with whom the government has notified the steamship line that the company may be requested to carry them back to Europe. Wiyniree, May 28 —Immigration Com- missioner McCreary is in rec eipt of a copy of a letter sent by the Department of the Interior to the Manager of the Hansa steamehip line, calling attention to the fact that in a party of Gallicians which arrived in Canada recently and was sent to Mani- toba and the Northwest, there are a num- ber of persons who are mi-erably poor ana who have become charges of the Guvern- ment. They refuse to accept such employment as the Immigration Commis- sioner offers them, and what to do with them has now bocome a perplexing ques- tion. The management of the steariship company is informed that it mey be called upon to carry these people back to where they came from. All Gallicians w#ho arrive in future will be examined before being allowed to land, and unlese they have some means and experience they will be sent back again. Lonpox, May 28—Subscriptions to the fund for the andownment in perpetuity of one bed in each of five leading London Hospitals, which fund was started by Americans residing in England as a memorial of the Qneen’s Jubilee, are coming iu slowly and without much eclat. The largest subscription received thus far is from Mrs. Jobn W. McKay, who has given $500. William Waidorf Astor has subscribed $100, aad several Jadies have given from $25 to $50 each. Some who bave been asxed to put their names on the lists have declined. Among these is the Ducheas of Mar|borough, nee Vanderbilt, who pleads as her reason for not subecrib- ing that she is no,Jonger an American. Lospon, May 28.—Detaila have been received from Odessa of the self-immola tion of a number of the fanatical followers of Raskoloiki, a report of which was first got two weeks ago. More than twenty four bodies of persons who were buried alive have been recovered from a series of pits pear Tirespp!. The sect i¢ a survival of the old dissenters who were persecuted in Russia fortwocenturies. Their treatment was worse under Empresa Sophia, when thousands of men were knouted by the state. The result wae that they became fiercely fanatical aud invented a doctrine of salvation by martrydom. They are now practicing self immolation. Six bodies were accidentally discovered on the prem- ises of Foodore Kevaleff, who confessed that he had walled up in his cellar nine living persons, including his wife and two young children. He further admitted that he had buried the other eix while they were still alive in a specially excavated pit eight feet deep. Kovaleff declares that all these were voluntary victims, Ip an adjoining garden, belonging to Matvel Sukuia, four bodies were discovered in a pit. Sukula says that these were buried alive at their own request. A large num- ber of persons, incluaing mony foreigners, among whom is ao American tourist party, are visiting the scene.

DONIDDUTSD ODUNOSTSDDDO DOOD NNN TNOD Here are a and all we JUNE LADIES’ HOME JOURNAL. The June Ladies’ Home Journal presents an ivfivite variety of sirikingly interesting, timely and practical teatures. It opens with an article by William George Jordan on * What Victoria Has Seen,” which graphically recounts the progress of the world in the past sixty years, since the coronation of the English Sovereign. Com- ing on the eve of the Queen's Jubilee it is especially timely. The establisument of Metbodism in America is told in an interest- ing article, by Rev. W. J. Scott, D. D., on “When John Wesley Preached in Georgia.” It narrates Wesley’s great work, his force- ful preaching, describes the first "Methodist sermon in America, which was delivered by Wesley, and his Sunday-School, which was the firet in the world. “Uncle Sam’s Confessional” describes how the money paid into the Conscience Fund of the United States Treasury is received, aud how its guilty senders carefaily avoid revealing their identity. Edward W. Bok makes an appeal that the poor childrea of the cities be gives an Outing in the country during a part of the summer. He vigorously denounces “The Offence of the Colored Shirt” ; aleo dis- cusses the “Itch to be Seen.” Lovers of fiction wil] read with deiight Elia Higgin- son’s short story, “One o’ Them suill, | Stubbora Kinde,” and Alice 8, Wolf's” romance, “Her Atter-Fame.” Charles Daae + Gib-ou’s drawing— “The People of Dickens” —most interestingly pictures Mr. and Mrs. Micawber, David Copperfield aud Traddles, and a page of Mr. Woolf’s waifs gives a most touching insight into what summer means to the children of the poor in cities. A song, “Wake Up! Cupid,” by Williain Spencer, author of “The Princess Bono.e,” “The Little Tycoon,” etc, will be welcomed by every lover of music. Dwight L. Moody’s contribution to his series of Bible Class articles discusses **Hope” in ibe Evangelist’s characteristic. lucid manner, and “Droch” chaots of “Humor and the Humorisis.” Along the more practical lines are Mrs, S. T. Rorer’s “Cooking Lessons” on vege- tables and their preparation; “A Simple Way to Swim”; “Lamp-Shades for Sam- mer Cottages”; ‘The City Woman’s Gard. en”; “For Wear in Summer Travel”; “What to Expect from a Young Man,” by Ruth Ashmore, articles on dress, needlework, etc. The June Journal is attractive in teresting and instructive from cover cover.
