The Number Of Settlers Coming tc
Dakota Over the C. M. & st. p.
Railroad Daily.
Associate Press Dispatch. }


An average of forty-five cars Of immigrant
goods goes west on the Milwaukee main line
into Dakota daily. Each carload is supposed
to represent a family, and the average family
may be reckoned at five. This would give a
daily addition to Dakota population Of 225 by
this line alone. The passenger travel is not SO
easily arrived at as the car-lots of immigrant
goods, but in the opinion of those who have
Travelled on the passenger train, commercial
men and Others it will average fully that ma
ny. And this is the business Of but one Of the
half-dozen railroads south of the Northern Pa
citc that are sending population into the COM
ing state. The rush to Kansas q few years
ago. the immigration boom Of the Manitoba
country year ago, were nothing to the pres
ent quiet, transformations, but immense move
ment Of settlers into Dakota. A Milwaukee
official yesterday informed a reporter that fire.
quently 500 settlers were waiting at Sanbom
for motive power to forward their goods along
the track into Dakota. The available engines
of the road were taxed to their utmost to pull
in the immigrants and their goods. An extra
passenger train, to accommodate the incoming
settlers mostly, is likely to be put on within a
few days. And this be it remembered, is
March, and the heaviest immigrant movement
last year and the years before was in May. If
it increases in the same ratio from March to
May this year the tracks cannot carry trains
enough to carry the settlers and their chattels

The question of division is agitating
the people in the north end of the
county but very little; the more time
there is for reflection the more fully it
is realized that it is the best thing to
do. No legislation can be so perfect
that it will suit all or that will not
work Il seeming hardship to some. 1t
seems however that no more fitting
time could have been selected to make
this division than the present is both
on account of tile minimum number
oppressed and the majority to be ben
efitted.

DISASTROUS FIRE.
Burning of the Parliament House
at Quebec.
Believed to be the Work Of Fenlans

QUEBEC, April 20.-The provincial Parlia-
ment House was destroyed by fire last night,
involving heavy loss difficult 10 estimate,
since the records aud books can never be re.
placed under any circumstances. The library
OF so 600 volumes is regarded as a total loss.
The insurance on the library alone was 900
and on the books and ia rniture, $50. 600
The excitement was very great, the fire fol-
lowing SO closely as it did the sensation at
Rideau Hall, Many thousands Of people
gathered about Mountain hill, and between
Dnfferin terrace and the ground battery, a
picturesque district well known TO tourists.
The building, which looked out over the Sc.
Lawrence, was 250 feet long, with wings some
thing over half that depth. 1t was built of
white brick When the fire was subdued
the walls and the northern wings which
escaped almost entirely. The flames were
first discovered near the library, and at a spot
which could not be seen by the watchmen, SO
that the IRE had gained great headway before
II was discovered. The building was located
SO as TO be almost inaccessible 10 the fire de-
partment.
The complete destruction Of the library in
wolves the irreparable loss of many books on
Canadian history, which had been made
specially. The records of the last session OF
the provincial Parliament, including the bills
signed by the LieutenantsG overnor after the
session, were fortunately saved, otherwise an
extra session might have been made necessa ry.
The authorities say that there are good rea-
sons TO believe that the fire was started BY In
cendiaries, and the people believe it 10 be the
WORK OF Fenians Premier Mosseau refuses 10
talk.
The contracts for erecting the new Parlia-
ment houses have already been granted TO the
amount OF S350,0oo, and member OF tke
provincial ministry stated that the erection Of
the new buiidiugS would probably be pushed
rapidly forward. Should an extra session be
necessary il can probably be held in Music

Tha Almntia Henl Case.

The coronef's jury which has been examin-
ing the case cf Almstia Heal Of Lincolnville,
who Is alleged TO have died from poison, held
its final hearing at Lincolnville Centre last
Saturday, aud rendered verdict that Miss
Heal came to her death from poison admin
istered by some person unknown. The only
evidence of much Importance adduced was that
given by DR.. johnson Of Belfast, and by the
father of the dead gin. Dr. johnson testified
that ON that morning just before starting for
the inquest he found in the box containing
arsenic which had been taken from Heals
house small quantity of powder outside OF
the paper in which the arsenic was wrapped,
which on analysis proved TO be ;strychnine. 1t
will be remembered that Prof Carmichael
found strychaine in Miss Heals stomach.
Mr.. Heal. the father of the girl, said he did
not see,his daughter en- the day Of her death
till late in the evening. He found her lying
on a lounge apparently intoxicated. He was
told that she had been drinking old cider. He
thought something more serious was the
trouble and wanted to send for a physician,
that his wife said it would bring disgrace upon
the family, and he, supposing that the disgrace
referred to was the being found drunk by the
physician, yielded to her and did not send.
Miss Heal went to bed about 10 o'clock and at
about IL 80 he heard her scream out, Mother!
motherl ana dying; came here and will
tell you where my portmonnaie isl" Hasten
ing 10 her roem he found her in commissions
and before medical assistance could be OBJ
tanned she died, Mr. Heal testified that on
the following day he was told by his wife who
was then apparently rational that Almatia
had told her that she had been seduoed by a
Camden man whose name she gave.
Mrs Heal was not called at the inquest. 1t
is understood she has recovered from her in
sanity.
The case will probably be investigated by
the grand jury,
