Tne quarrel between France and Siam seems to have had its origin in a mutual misunderstanding. It appears that the government of Siam had issued an order that foreign vessels of war should not he | . | permitted to cross the bar of the Menam | river. The French admiral professes to have been unaware of this fact. At any rate, he crossed the bar, and the Siamese «hips opened fire upon the aggressor. The French replied, and there was for half an hour a wild exchange of shots,resulting only in the killing of ten Siamese sailors by the explosion of @ stray shell. toward oeeurrence there has arisen the warlike situation which is set forth in the France is boiling dispatches Choleric over with indignation—threatening Siam and warning Great Britain to beware.

A solemn Requiem Mass was celebrated by Rev. . Peter Curran; the choir was ably assisted by Rev. J. J. McDonald, nephew of the deceased, and Mr. D. F. Morrison, Eeclesiastic.

Gould and his fellow heirs under the will of Jay Gould think that they are being robbed by the New York Tax Commissioners. In the tax list for 1893 the personal estate of Jay Gould is put down at $10,000,000. The heive have obtained a writ of certiorari the purpose of reviewing this assessment. | The heirs contend, in the first place, that they should not be taxed at all, as they did not come into possesion of the estate until January i3th, feur days after the taxing law went into effect. If the court does not take this view of the ease the heirs say they should not be asked to pay on more than $2,000,000 worth of property. The Gould estate, however, has already paid $600,000 as collateral imheritance tax, and this concedes the estate to be worth $63 ,- Comptroller Myers, who co- lected this tax, estimated the estate as worth $76,000,000, | Lh., 2 m.,39 sees. here last evening from Seotland.

(Montreal Gazetie.) The total assets of the Dominion at the close of the Jast fiscal year were $59,820,- 000. Notadollar of this sum directly represents expenditures upon public works such as the Intercolonial and Prince Ed- ward Island railways, the canals, and the numerous public buildings located through- out Canada. If these items were entered | at their cost price in the balance sheet of } anees | times, and the govermment | vinees $16,407,000, principally the Government, a large excess of assets would be shown, and if even the Govern- ment properties in the shapé of lands, post offices and customs buildings were included at their fair market value, the net debt would be cut down by tens of millions of dollars. The largest item in the assets represents the pur chase of bonds for the sinking fund, the Government having now ac- cumulated about $30,500,000 in this way. The tangible character of the assets as a whole is manifested by the fact that in 1892 they produced an interest income of $1,086,400, or an average of 2 per cent. Turning to the gross iabilities of the Dominion, we find them to be composed principally of a fulhded debt of $209,000- 000, of which all but about ten millions is payable in London. Of the Canadian issues, Only one bearing a higher rate of interest than 4 per cent. is still outstand- ing, namely $2,433,000 of five per cents issued in L868 for the construction of the International railway, and which falls due in 1903. Neariy "1.000.000 of the deben- tures bear 3 per cent. interest, that being the rate ef the last two joans, $24,000,000 bear 34 per cent the t per cent. The next largest item of debt con- sists of deposit= in the Government sav- ings banks, these amounting to $40,000,- 090, upon which interest at the rate of 34 per cent. is paid. and balance There is due the pro- ior allow- them at various has $9,173,000 of debt made to | of trust funds, in which item are included At Erie, Pa., on Wednesday the team | Lunette and Evangeline covered 164 miles in 494 mins., and won a wager of $2,000.
