All fees heretofore peysdle to these Judges are abo lished It is rumored as highly probsble that Mr. Edgar will formulate his charg~s against Sir Adviphe C.ronu with greater precision, when they will be referred, by Sir Adojphe’s own request, to @ spectral committee for investigation. Last Tuesday, Chief Justice Ritchie, acting as Depury Guvernor, came down to the Senate and aesented to a number of bills whch had passed both branches. The Minister of Marine and Fisheries has given notice of the introduction of a bill respecting the exportation of bai fishes, which will enable our Governmen: to apply to Newfoundland fishing vessels i: Canadian waters the same treatment that is appiied to Canadiav vessels in New- foundland waters. Last seasun 108 New- foundland vessels fished in Canadian Lsbea- dor waters, and took over 30,000 quintals of fish and 20,000 gallons of cil, and in addition to this six Newfoundland firms had fishing st«tions on Canadian Labr-dor, and took 20,000 quintais of fi-h and 14,000 galluns of vil Ouly nine Canadian vessels fished in Newfoundland waters last season, and they were forced to pay duty on salt and other supplies. On Monday, when introducing » bill sus- pending the revision of the voter's hats this year, the Secretary of State announced that the Government intends introducing a measuse to simplify the operation of the law and to reduce the expense of revision. Until after Easter recess, Mr. Patterson could not say whether such measure would be introduced this session. After some further routine business, the rest of the day was spent in discussing a mution of Mr. iges’, ** That it is expedient to impose import duties on saw logs and sprucs pulp wood, when exported from Canada.” Mr. Ives was supported in his argument by Dr. Sproule only, out of number of speakers, and opp ret by all the rest, and after a debste of several hours, he withdrew bis motion, when the Huse adj -urned. On Tuesday, the first thing was a motion by Sir John Thompsen authorizing the use by the Government in the prosecutions of McGreevy, Oonnoliys, Arnoldi, Talb:t, Senecal and others, of the evidencs takev before the Parlixm-nutary Co umiitees last session; and also to permit she senographers and clerks = of the Commutees to testify in Court. It isarule of Parliament that evidence given before it is pr vileged, and that wit- nesses are protected against civil or crim- inal prosecutions for any and ali admss- sions made by ‘hem beture a Parliamentary tiie what is probably the worth of the vague and ill-detined charges which the (Opposition oecasional y bul against members of the conservative party ¥ Where Mr. Somerville made his mistake was in being specific If he had been vague like Mr. Edgar his uccnsation would b> ringing round the Dominion now, and he wouid not hive been compelled to make an inglorious hackdown, Ou Wednesday M- Davies brought up the case of Joha F Roberisun by moving tora return of all petitions, correspond- ence, &>, inthe matter of his claim for damsg sforinjuries sustained by him 1 an accident the P E LT Railway in 1882 Afier detailing the circumstances of the accident, Mc D.vis sail that Mr R b rig n ha’ not taken actio: aganet the Government iu consequence of auverse de- cist na given in other similsr claims, bat had mide arpliecation privately for cow- pensa ion Hi- claim had been referred tu the D-partm nt of Justice, whose opinion was to the eff-ct that, if the accident was caused by a latent defect in the «axle of which the empluyes on the railway had vo knuwledys and no means of knowing, there was n° jiability; implying that if tne ace:- dent had been caused bys defect of which they did know, the Government wuld be liable. Mr Robertson alleged that the axle was breken at the time the train started, that the employes had means of knowing that and did not use that means, and were, therefore, negligent, and conse- quently liable. But in 1887 the Exchequer Court was constituted, and under «# deci- sion recently given by Judge Burbidge, of that C .urt, the law is that the Government 18 liable siace the constitution of that court for injuries on public works arising out of torts or negligence o1 the part of its offi- cials. As Mr. R-bertsen’s claim dates from 1882, the Governm-nt, under that decision, is not liable, buc hed he suffsred accident siace 1887 he could recover dam- ages Mr. Divies submitted that this was a case of gross iv justice which the Govera- ment should remedy. Mr Robertson had suff-red serious aod permanent injuries which had disabled him from business for a long time. His wife was aiso serivusiy, but not permsmently, injured. Mr. Davies claimed that Mr. Robertsun's case should receive recognition. Sir John Thompson did not agree with Mr. Davies in the construction he put upon Judge Burbidge’s decision, but he avor'ed saying any’hing upon the merits of Mr, Robertson’s case, as his p sition as Minister of Justice might eveatuaily require him to argue on the other side. Mr. Davies, spesking again, said that it seemed unjust and uoreasouahbls that, if the Governmeut go into the busia ss ot carry- ing passengers berween two points, and if in 80 carrying them a man is injured threugh the negligence of their empiwyes, au matter of fact, cases.

In 1839 they were alowed 449 men, in 1890 ht was cut down to 321, in 1891 they drilled 345, or 23 more, which the militia lepartment afterwards sanctioned, and last year they were cut down to 325, which they think is far below the number they are entitled to. To which the Minister of Militia replied ;— Th-re was a practice that had crept in’o the service of battalions having more men for drill than provided for in the regulations. the Miaister of Militia, whenever his appro- priatioa would allow him to do so, paid the ants do not manage to procure & postpone- expense.
