Much Dissatisfaction About Sifton’s Mismanagement of Affairs. |Specta, ro Toe Examiner.) Orrawa, Oct 27.—The Cabinet was in session yesterday. The sessional pro~ gramme being uoder discussion. Ministers are anxious to call the parlia~ ment early in the new year, but everything is contigent upou the progress made by the International Commission at Washington. The meeting yesterday was to discués, generally, legislation to be brought for- ward and especially to elicit the views of the three knights, who will be absent from the capital for some weeks. The idea is thatthe other ministers in the absence of their colleagues threshfout the detai's fof the measure after their colleagues haye gone and also prepare the estimates for submis- will sion to parliament. Papers iv connection with the two years mail contract are before the Cabinet, but a ' decision has not vet been reached, and will ! not be until the details of the winter ser- vice are settled. Ministers are naturally greatly troubled over Sifton’s management of affairs. They realize that the appointment of | Ogilve to investigate the allegations of official corruption does not satisfy the public and aradical enquiry may yet be ordered. _—— Murder and Suicide.

ESTABLISHED AGENT. —_——— FW. Hyndman —- THE PRESS OF ENGLAND ‘Unanimous an the Fasho- a Question. MORE ADDITIONS TO THE BRIT- ISH FLEET. Loxpon, Oct. 26.—The entire press scouts the idea of the possession of Fasboda coming within the sphere of the dis- cussion. The St James Gazette says: ““We are prepared to negotiate the qnestion of the western frontier of the Babr-el-Ghazel district. But we must control the Nile» both baoke and watersheds, from its course to the sea ” The Globe thinks the Marquis of Salis- bury has made clear that Major Marchand must quit Fasboda without copui-ions, adding : “Until thatis done there can be no discussion of the French claims in Africa.” Continuing, the Globe points out the significant announcement ia ‘Seneral Kit- chever’s report that he sent gunboats south trom Sebat, towards Meshra~Or-Rek, the principal wade centre of the Babr-El- Chasaal region, with instructions to estab- lish outposts, and tbat before he left Sou-~ dan he completed arrangements for the maintepance of those stations, The Giobe then adds: “This move brings our position down to the eighth pirallel of vorth latitude and the valley of the Bahr-E!~Ghasal at this momeat is under the rule of the Khedive. It will be interesting to see the effect of this revelation upoa the French government.” The Pall Mall Gazette concludes that the Freneb governwent has been given to understand that wholly apart from the Fashoda question, its title to the territory abounding on the left bank of the Nile is “rejected as utterly untevableand France must accept the position or take the conse- quences.” The Westminister Gazette suggests as a solution that the Frenca be granted “way- leave” and ‘‘encalve” for commercial! pur- poses in the Babr El-Ghesal district. (“Way-~leave” is the right of way over anothers ground. ‘Enclave ’ is to sbut in to enclose a terriory within the territories of another.) The French papers, today, are more hopeful and believe that.a pscific solu< tion of the dispute will be fonad. The English newspapers are full of naval particulars, but the only fresh deve~ lopment is of the order received at Ports- mouth to prepare allthe ships of the fleet snd the reserve for immediate mobiliza- tion. Evght additional warships there, in consequence, commenced cosling this morning and working parties were imme - diately placed on board the other reserve vessels at Portsmouth. Although not conwected with the war preparations much attention bas been attracted to a request received by the Clyde shipbuilders from the British admirality for tenders for four new first class battle- ships, a first class cruiser and twelve torpedo boat destroyers, The dis: inguish~ ing features isthe iscreased armament, which, it's betieved, will make the battle- ship?, wh 0 ready torservice,the most powerfu! vessele of their class afloar. They willtave a speed of 19 knois. Tne craiser will be of 14,100 tons and will be desis ned toxteam twenty three knots. All the vessels will mount evceptionally strong quick flrivg gaps. OO —— Working for Prohibition. [Speciat ro Tue ExamiNer.] Toronto, Oct 27—The deputation of temperance advocates to goto Ottawa to work for a prohibition law, will go next week. CAVENDISH CLIPPINGS Farmers in ‘this raral district are busy finiebing up their fall ploughing. Potato and turnip crop are somewnat deficient, the tubers in some cases being much rotted and the roots emall. Our schools is progressing favorably under the careful management of Mr. E. Brown. The Christian Endeavor Society meets weekly and a goodly number attend. All the active members perform their duties. The Literary society held its first meet~ ing last Friday evening. A very able and intelligent slaff of officers was appointed : President, Rev G U Jackson; Vice Presi- dent, Rev C Jackson; Secretary, Mr G Simpson. Judging trom the above staff we enticipated a season of literary sport. Our former Librarian,Mr Ben Simpson ' was re~elected, THE NORTH WILTSHIRE CURVE. | Sir,—A large number of men are still employed io the work of straightening (?) | the curve in the railway at North Wilt ‘shire. The distance saved by this work | will be about balf a mile; the time saved between Charlottetown and Summerside will be about a minute and abalf. ‘There are four or five curyes on the new line, one of which in much sbrrper thau any on the old, and if there were any danger on the old line, it will be increased on the new. The cost will probably reach forty thou- sand dollare. I would ask anyone who has achance todo soto takea careful look over this new track, and then stop avd censider what the benefit to Prince Edward Island would have been if this $40,000 had been devoted to the advance- ment of our fruit industry or to the starting of an experimental farm in the Province.
