EMO TO BE EXTRADITED.
NO ESCAPE THROUGH THE
LAWS LOOPHOLE.


An Effort Made by the Counsel for the
/ Prosecution to Have the Prisoner In-
carcerated in the Common JNtl, But IL
Fails.
MONTREAL, June l6.-C. p. Davidson,
counsel for the Second National Bank,
to-day received telegram informing him
that the British Minister at Washington
had instructed the Attorney General Of
Quebec to hold Emo for extradition.
EMO NOT SENT TO MONTREAL.
QUEBEC, June 16.-Judge Caron. of the
Superior Court, to-day decided against
the application for n transfer of John c.
Emo to the jurisdiction of the Montreal
court for trial with view to eXtradition.
aud dismissed the petition of High Con-
stable Bessanet, upon whose con-
duct he passed some severe stric-
lures, remarkinS, among other things,
that It was fortunate for him that he had
not come under the purview Of some of
ms Judicial colleagues here, as they would
have dealt more severely with him. The
Judge said that proof of Eno's offense
should be addneed before hsn, hefe a.
Quebec where the prisoner would continue
TO be held until Thursday next. Judge
Caron declared that his decision had the
full approval of Judge Tessier, who had
already quashed two former warrants in
the Emo case,and all his colleagues on the
Superior Court bench at Quebec, includ-
ing the Chief Justice.
NOT SENT TO THE COMMON JAIL.
The private counsel for the prosecution
then asked that Emo should be committed
TO the common Jail. He said that he was
Instructed to make this application, and
did so adyisedly. The counsel for the
prisoner resisted the application, pointing
out that ii was matter entirely within
the discretion Of the Judge. So far the
prisoner had been kept very safely. MIR.
Pelletier, representing the Grown, said
that the Crown had no desire to make the
prisoners lot any harder, and so far as
II was concerned it did not have
the slightest apprehension that he would
escape or that there was any danger of
his doing so. OF course IL ANYTHING is
proven against him when the proof is
adduced it might seem reasonable to take
further precautions, but in the meantime
he was satisfied that he was in the best
of safe keeping in the hands of aieh Con-
stable Gale. The court decided that it
had no discretion to exercise in the mat
ter, and Emo was accordingly remapded
till Thursday to the charge of the high
constable, who escorted him back to the
St. Louis Hotel, where he left him under
the usual guard,

New England and Long Island Farmers
Heavy losers.
BosToN, June 16.-Reports from vari-
GUS parts Of New England state that the
heavy frost of Saturday night caused con-
siderable damage to growing crops. The
Cape Cod district reports that the pros

ruined. Hundreds of acres were blighted,
involving the loss OF many thousands of
dollars. Potatoes and corn and vines of
all kinds were seriously affected. Much
of the corn will have to be replanted, and
owing to the lateness OF the season short
crops will be the result.
In Norfolk county, Mass, entire
crops of vegetables were destroyed, and

DrNGLEYss SHIPPING BILL.
The Conference Committee Still at
Variance on the Two Disputed Clauses.

The Conference Committee Stiu at
Variance on the Two Disputed Clauses.
WASHINGTON, June 16.-The confer
ence committee on the Dingley shipping
bill met for the first time tonight. The
committee agreed to all the provisions in
the bill except those relating to free ships
and the postal subsidy. The House con-
ferees moved that both these provisions
be dropped, and that the bill be reported
without them. The Senate eonferees had
no objection to dropping the free ship
proposition, but objected to dropping the
postal subsidy proposition. so nothing
was done with either. An adjournment
was had, subject to the call Of the Chair
man, in order to give the conferees a
chance TO look around in their respective
Houses. The free ship proposition win
certainly be dropped, and probably the
postal subsidy scheme will be also. If
not, it will be modified, and, in the other
event, will probably be beaten in the
House.
The principal points of difference be-
tween the two houses which were dis
posed OF by the committee were those re-
ferring TO the tonnage tax on vessels en-
gagged in the foreign trade, and the SUPER
vision OF shipping Commissioners. On
HU1DiEU
the provisions of the House bill. The lat
ter provides for reduction of the tonnage
tax to 3 and cents, according to the
length of the voyage, and also that the
shipping Commissioners shall here
after be subject to the con-
troll of the Secretary of the
Treasury instead of as now being un-
der the supervision of the Circuit Courts.
IL was found to be impossible at the meet
ing tonight for the conferees to agree
upon the free ships and subsidy clauses.
With respect to these the committee is
evenly divided. Senators Frye and Miller
OF New York, of the Senate conferees, and
Representative Dmgly of the House con-
ferees, are opposed to the free ship clause,
and Messrs. Slocum and DibbIe of the
House committee, apd Mr.. Vest of the
senate committee, are in favor of its
adoption. The three latter named oppose
the subsidy plan OF the Senate. 1t
was said tonight after the meeting
by member of the committee that it was
probable that sooner than see the bill fail
to go through at this session the House
conterees would agreato drop the "free
ship" clause if the postal steamship sub
sldy clause were also dropped. This, he
thought, would be the outcome of the dis
pute between the two houses.
