Tho Ministerial Crisis.

LONDON, juno lO.-TLe queen hai
summoned the marquis of Harrington
secretary Of state for war, TO Balmora|
castle. 1t is not known whether he /,
summoned MS the representative Of Glad
stone or is to be invited to form q new
cabinet. Harrington seems in no hurry
to comply with the summons, and has not
yet started for Scotland.
A private deputation of Conservative
members OF parliament waited upon Sir
Stafford Northcoto and the marquis Of
Salisbury to-day, and urged them to re-
fuse Office. The marquis of Salisbury
stated that if the queen called them they
must form a government. He would sup
port Northcote as premier. and he ex-
pected the queen 5 commands would place
Sir Stafford in that position.
LONDON, June 1.-THE Marquis Of
Harrington had arranged to 90 to Balmo-
raj last evening in place of Gladstone, but
the plan was abandoned and the TACT that
Harrington remains in London is regard
ed as an indication of the early arrival of
the queen.
The DAILY Nees this morning express
es tho hope that the cabinet will persist
in ~resigning, adding that a few months of
Tory rule will ensure a Liberal triumph
in the general election and be better than
fifty discourses Of superiority of the lab
eral principles.
An official order was issued tonight,
closing Windsor castle to the public after
tomorrow. This is a sure sign of the ad-
vent of the queen. AS Windsor is only
thirty minutes by rail from London, the
return other majesty will greatly expedite
public business at the present crisis.

WASHINGTON. June l0.-The post
Office inspectors who have been pursuing
Hibbs, the defauIting postmaster of Lew
iston, Idaho, have discovered he is at
Farewell, a town $50 miles distant from
Victoria, b. C. As he is accompanied by
his family the inspectors haze little doubt
of being able to arrest him. 1t is proba-
bic an attempt to effect extradition will be
involved in difficulty and raise a nice
point He could not be held for embezzle-
msnt, as that offence is not covered by the
existing treaties with British Columbia,
nor for forgery, as he was acting in his
capacity of postmaster when he drew the
fraudulent money orders. 1t was hoped
he might be held upon a charge OF steal
ing letters addressed TO another person,
but this again involves a nice question.
The letters Hibbs took from the pouches
were addressed to one Davis which
was the name assumed for the purpose by
himself.

Wont on the Wrong Track

WINNIPEG, June l0.-The latest adj

dated june 9th. 1t was then forty miles
north east Of Pitt. and eight miles from
Big Bear supposed locality. The Indians
are reported to be making RATS to Gro ~

Descendants of an Earl Fighting
For q Peerage.

LONDON, June l0.-A committee of
the house of lords to-day began the con-
sideration of the claim of Major Maitland
to the Lauderdale peerage. Maj. Matt
lard in his petition to the lords says he is
the fourth son of the sixth earl of Lauder
dale, who it is alleged married Mary
Macadam in New York in l772, two days
before her death. Mary Macadam had
born three sons to this fourth son of the
sixth earl, and it is commended by the petit
toner, Major Maitland, that this marriage
legitimized his offspring. Sir James
Maitland, descendant of the fifth son of
of the sixth carl of Lauderdale, contests
the claim of Maj. Maitland to the peerage.
United States Minister Phelps, United
States Senator Edmunds and Messrs.
Fowler, Stephen Nash and Clarence Cary
will give testimony concerning the law Of
marriage as it existed in the American
colonies in l772.

Guilty encountered by the Conservatives in
their discussions regarding the formation
Of a ministry, says the FaH Mall Gazette,
is the problem what to do with Lord
Randolph Churchill. He claims to have
done much in the work of destroying the
Liberal government and demands his
share OF the spoils. 1t is apparent that
the older Tories regard him as trouble
some and somewhat dangerous to have
around in the national councils. The
Ga-ette intimates that Il polite effort will
be made to get rid of hin ir The Conser-
vatives form a government. He Nil. il
is said, be requested to go to ireland. if
not to succeed Earl Spencer as lord
lieutenant, her as chief secretary.
sort of talk which is already being applied
to the young men is something like this.
You certainly prefer duty to mere am
bition; therefore, you should ncccrt this
difficult and dangerous post. Dare yau
accept it2 If you accept. then whether
you succeed or fail, you will at least prove
that you possess great qualities Of inire-
pidity and self sacrifice, which are among
the greatest gifts possessed by popular
statesmen" Lord Randolph is very sus-
cepsiblc to flattery and he might prove to
be a great Irish governor.

The GREAT SEA SERpENT.-Captan 4.
n. Smith, of the schooner E. H. Hartman,
which arrived at New York some days ago,
after twelve days voyage from Nuevitas,
report, that the vessel met the genuine sea
serpent on the fourth day out. The captain
tells the following story of the meeting with
the great marine monster:
I'm latitude 81 deg. 10 min, longitude II
deg. so min., saw what at first | thought to
be school OF whales, but by close observa-
ton l knew that it was some other great
thing. 1t was coming towards us without
spouting and with more than railroad speed
1t came up from leeWard, and as soon as it
got within half mile Of us it sank and again
made its appearance two miles to wind
ward l now discovered that it was sea
serpent, with three very large bumps on his
back, each being about seventy-live feet
apart. The whole serpent must have been
at least three hundred feet long of q BLACK;
color, and is doubtless what so many sea
captains have reported to be an island in
the Gulf Stream. now believe in the sea
serpent. 1t may look like fish story, but
it certainly was more than three hundred
feet long. Wonderful things are. in the
Bible and also in the sea, but this is as great
G wonder as have eyer SEEN"

elected to share the fate of their husbands
and sons.
1t was not difficult even 10 so cursory q
view to perceive the difference between
these poor creatures. Squalid, miserable,
poverty stricken, as they all seemed, though
often thinner, poorer, more miserable even
in appearance than the others, the volunta-

ere many months elapse, and very few of

Every month does such gang leave the
