MONTREAL, May 30.-The Witness SAYS
I"0ur Canadian executive is going 20 exer-
else the same privileges as the queen hesself
of rAtifying the treaty without asking the
consent of Parliament. This will, We pre-
sumo, be final, so far as regards the fisher
les, but legislation may be required to open
the canals. All this is for the best for tive
reasons: First, any solution OF information.
al difficulties is better than the arbitration
of war; second, the Dominion of CanAds
7 will hope to gain by all she comedies in thit
q treaty, as we'll as by all she acquires through

There was great difference between tn

burned on Saturday, and that at Avondale
In the AvondAle shaft there was furnace
but here there WAS none, and the air We
forced through by means of large fans. Th
breaker caught fire at o'clock on Sstul
day afternoon. The fire was entirely e1
tinguished down to the bottom by seve
o'clock iD the evening. 1t is now conf
dently believed that if the men in charge {
= the rescue had thought of this construotio
of the work, and had procured q new ia
q and set il in operation Immediately, enoug
q. air could have been forced down to mai
tain life in all the men who we're behind th
