THE POISONED CANDY CASE, New Evidence Against McDonald. —_——_—— Sr. Jonn, Dec. 10. Little ditticulty was experienced this morning in securing the twelfth juryman in the McDonald case. Of the ten additional men summoned to secure one, five failed to appear and were fined. A few minutes before noon the Solicitor-( yeneral opened the case fer the crown in a speech re- citing the facts, and pointing out by what facts he expected to prove that McDonald was the person who sent the poisoned andy to Mrs. McRae and others, The new evidence mentioned a few days ago as having come to light was referred to by the Solicitor General. It was that 4 few days ago agirl in Barker’s employ, while in the garret found a comb behind some barrels, and believing it had some connection with the McDonald case, handed it to Mr. Barker. He notified the authorities of the suspicion that the combs which had been dumped out of the boxes to put candy in were stored away in the garret, requested that the authorities attend when search would be made for them. Accordingly the Soli- citor-General and Detective Ring visited the place, and some eighteen: combs were found hid away. A later search has revealed more. This fact, together with the fact that MeDonald some weeks before the poisoned candy was mailed asked one of the clerks in the shop if the barrels, etc., in the garret were ever disturbed, is regarded as a strong link in the chain of circumstantial evidence against the prisoner. This after- noon the conrt sat till nearly six o'clock, aud twelve witnesses were examined. Ad- ditional stenographers have been secured, and in order to bring the trial to a close before Christmas, it is expected evening sessions will be held. a Federation of the Colonies. Sypney, N.S. W., Dec. 10. Sir Henry Parkes, Premier and Colonial Secretary, is following up his proposition for the federation of the Australian Colon- ies somewhat, as he suggested, upon the model of the Dominion of Canada. The scheme grew directly out of the proposi- tion for the formation of an Australian army and aims especially to overcome many gross evils of mis-government which seem inseperable from the present system. The Conservative element appre- hends that if once the colonists undertake the organizing of a general colonial govern- ment it may desire to emulate the United Statts. Sir Henry suggests the abolition of all border duties, and absolute free trade between the colonies, guaranteed if neces- sary by special intercclonial treaties. Uni- form marriage laws protect families from the evils of divorce as seen in the United States.

He was not hitherto much distinguished in politics, but will have now a fine opportun- ity to exhibit any hidden talent he may possess. His programme is that only the official staff shall meet him at Kingstown. eee Another Disaster at Johnstown. Jounstown, Pa., Dec. 10. During a performance at the opera house here to-night the cry of fire was raised, re- sulting in a terrible rush for life down the aarrow stairs.
