Mr.. EDIToR:-I wish to say few words in
relation to an article which appeared in the
PRESS yesterday, purporting to be testimony
of committee to test and examine the Hume
man ladders Mr.. Barnes says in his testimo-
ny from what he could learn that the props
gave way or slipped out of position before the
breaking of the ladder at the American House
fire. Now in the first place, would like to in
quire where Mr.. Barnes received his informa-
tiou in regard to the props being out Of place,
before or at the breaking of the ladder. He
also says he closely examined the timber in the
broken ladder and pronounced it apparently of
first quality, though at the break it appeared .
little brittle or inclined to split easily.
In justice to myself and company, (which
latter is second to none,)I can say that the
ged; also they were we'll propped and guyed
and that the props will show for themselves,
being both broken, which could not have been,
bad they been out of position. Furthermore,
l myself, superintendent the raising and setting
of the ladder, and also am prepared to prove
the above statements.
Mr.. Barnes stated that he would have no
hesitation in being one of six men to go on the
ladder with the usual hose if it was supported
as intended with props. Mr.. Rogers also ex-
could go upon the ladder, when the support
was in position with the utmost safety. NowI am
prepared with the consent of the Chief Engi-
neer) to take the mate to that broken ladder
and give Messrs. Barnes and Rogers chance
with four other men, if they can be found, to
take line of hose full of water up the said lad
der any time you may see fit.
would like to ask if we have not men in the
Portland Fire Department who are capable of
testing ladders, without going to outside par
D-o~ e I'D
are they not capable of testing ladders? If not,
why ale they placed at the head of this de
partment to superIntend and control the same ?
L think we have Board of Engineers capable
of testing any piece of apparatus in the depart.

The Montreal Board of Trade has adopted
resolutions against the reciprocity treaty in its
present form.
According to the Toronto Globe tho Province
Of Ontario is enjoying an unwonted degree of
prosperity. With the exception of the lumber
industry all sorts of business are fourishing.
The crops are exec lent and command ready
sale at good prices.
There has been long and continued spell of
dry weather in the Province of New Bruins
wick and the streams were never known to be
lower. Most of the water-power mills have
been compelled to shut down and crops are suf-
fering.
The Dominion Evangelical Alliance meets in
Montreal the first day Of October and continues
in session one week. A large number of prom
inent clergymen from different parts of the
Dominion and also from the United States and
England, will be present.
Mr. Bridges Ex-Superintenden of the Grand
Trunk railway, has been presented by his adj
mirers in Montreal with $4,000 bond of that
city. The gift was inclosed in a magnificent

Some idea of the magnitude of the lumber
business on the Miramichi may be gained from
the following from the Truro Sun. A cores
pondent of that paper says: Upwards Of a
thousand acres of the waters of the Mlramichi
are literally crowded full of logs, which hun
dreds of men are rafting, while the absence OF
ice will allow, from spring to fall. 1t is said
there are about fifty million feet yet to be
RATED. One man is said to have twenty million

Serious Riot .tAsu,uwaIl.

AsPINwALL, Sept. 21.-A serious riot, accom-
panied with bloodshed, took place here this af-
ternoon between the Italians in the employ OF
the Pacific Mail Steamship Co. and the troops
on duty here. One of the soldiers, unarmed,
was on the wharf and was chased off by some
Italians, who threw stones at him. Arriving
at his quarters he reported the case, when an
officer and six men went at once to the wharf
to arrest those who had made the assault
Reaching the gate of the wharf the Italians
tired two pistol shots at the troops without re-
suit, when voly was fired in return which
mortally wounded one of the Italians and seri-
ously wounded jamaican negro. The excite
ment was intense and additional troops were
sent for TO keep the peace. The California
passengers who arrived just after the eccurren-
ces, were placed safely on board the Acapulco.
That none were hurt is wonderful, as the volly
was fired just outside the gate and directly up.

the Commodore Gray, and Supt Thompson
were just outside the line of fire, and the wharf
was filled with aborers Matters are quiet now
but the troops will be welcome.

clergyman officiating.
AT late hour in the evening the company
took their departure for their homes wishing
the remarked couple long years of happiness.
