House met at noon and went into cold mittee to further consider the subway bill. The leader of the Opposition continued the debate. Hox. Mr. Sunnivan read a letter from Sur Vernou Smith, giving much information otter the following Goods at Very Low Prices ; during APRIL: — Carpets, ” Oilcloths, concerning subways, Room Papers, After progress had been reported the House adjourned. AFTERNOON SESSION, House met at 4 p. m. The bill to amend the Act respecting the law relating to the incorporation of the Law Society was reported agreed to. House went into committee of the whole on the subway bill. ! How. Mr. Serrivan deprecated the long, senseless and meaningless speeches made in this matter of the subway by some mem- bers of the Opposition. He explained at/ length the position of the Government with reference to the subway, showing that the} Government were not to pay any money for the construction thereof until it had been proved feasible and had been ap- proved of by a competent engineer ap- | pointed by the Government. He said the Opposition were pursuing a wrong course | in talking so much nonsense in as | | with this bill. He thought that if the Op- position had any amendinents or suggest ions to offer they should offer them and not | try to throw all the obstacles they can in| the way of the passing of the bill. Mx. Survertanpd thought the Comumnis- | sioner of Public Works and not the Leader | vf the Government should have introduced the bill and explained the whole affair. | He regretted that the desired information had not been furnished so that hon. mem- bers could vote intelligently. Mr. RicHarps said he was well aware | lar to that proposed in any other part of the world. This being the case he thought | it better to wait until some other place had taken the initiative iu the matter of con- | structing subways, and the question of their feasibility had been fully established. Hon. N. McLeoo said that according to the bill, the tunnel was to be of such ma- terial and of such dimensions as the Gov- ernor-in-Council shall approve of. The contractors were to furnish good security for the faithful carrying out of the contract and the Government were running no risk whatever. The contractors’ were liable for all damages incurred by the expropriation } of lands. The Opposition are a unit in contending that the bill is inoperative owing to some supposed flaw in one of the clauses. Instead of moving an amendment to this clause they talk against time—and the bill. The Opposition, particularly the hon. member for West River, had denoun- ced the straits subway as a ‘‘wild-cat scheme ” and true to their instinets were now denouncing the little tunnel across the Hillsboro. The people of Belfast and Murray Harbor had contributed their quota | Ammonia, Lime or Alum to the amount necessary for the building of the railway, while they had been deprived of the advantages thereof. He thought the subway was feasible and the money spent in its construction would be money well ex- pended. : On motion the Speaker took thechair and progress was reported. Hon. Mr. SULLIVAN introduced an Act amending the Education Act and an Act re- specting proceedings in the Supreme Court and Court of Chancery. House adjourned. FORENOON SESSION. Wepnespay, April 20. House in Committee of the Whole on the Subway Bill, Mr. H. L. McDonald in the chair, discussed the Subway Bill at length. Among those who took part in the discussion were Messrs, Sinclair, J. R. McLean, N. McLeod, Prowse, Bell, Bent- ley, Matheson, Gordon, Wise and Fergu- son. Hon. Mr. Sullivan explained that it was proposed to limit the amount of the contract proper to $250,000, andto take security in $100,000 for the speedy e m- struction of the work. Mr. Wise said he would support the measure if provision were made that the company should keep the Subway and take the tolls. Mr. Bell feared that an injustice might be done the Province if the interest to be paid on the debentures were placed as high as4 percent. He thought it possible that the credit of the Proyince was good enough to float its debentures at 3° per cent., and that the Province might lose a lot of money if the debentures were issued at 4 per cent. Mr. Prowse pointed out that the Province would suffer no loss, because the tenders would be lower if the debentures were issued at 4 per cent. than they would if issued at the lower figure ; and Mr. Ferguson compliments the hon. gentleman in his expression of the opinion that the credit of the Province stood so high that its debentures could be sold on better terms than those of the Dominion. A peculiar case is down for hearing at the Esevtt, Ont., Divisional Court. The defendent offerei a married lady one hun- dred dollars to induce her sister to marry him. The match was amicably arranged by the sister and they were duly married, and now the sister and husband refuse to pay the stipulated money. | Hence a suit to re- cover the amount agreed upon.
