Reciprocity-The Fisheries-Domin-
ion Government Asked to Employ
Naval Ships to Protect the Fisher
les.
HALIFAX, n. g., June "A meeting Of
tho Halifax Chamber of Commerce was
hold yesterday afternoon, when the pro-
lection Of the fisheries and a reciprocity
treaty were discussed. The president
stated that the first thing to come before
the meeting WAS the reciprocity matter.
lie said the chamber knew very well
that under the old treaty, peace, pros
pOrity, aud quietness has prevailed bo-
tween the fishermen of tho country and
those Of the United States, and IL was
very desirable that such state of things
should exist. "We do not want" con-
tinued tno presijent, ~ DO ombroiled ms
are England and Russia, and, as Cana
dians, wo do not want state OF Antago-
nism. We want to be friends with the
United States"
William Roche, jr., said the minutes of
the last meeting showed the chamber TO
be unanimously in favor Of reciprocity
treaty. We are face 30 face with the
expirery of the fishing claims, and there
is no treaty. The government called for
OuE 1OuuR IutD W utltUu lla III
the northwest. We call upon them to pro-
tect our fisheries.
Hon. Mr.. Jones said tho position Of the
Dominion government was this: Sir John
Macdonald had intimated that no ap-
proaches would be made to the United
States unless the Washington authorities
expressed their willingness to deal with
the question of reciprocity, and that as
yet no such willingness had been ex-
pressed. When the treaty of 1879 was
made at Washington Americans were
willing to give us the privilege of taking
into their country free coal, lumber, and
fish, and after year or two, salt. But
Sir John refused this unless the grain of
Ontario was also included. The next day
America withdrew this offer. and would
never renew ii. Sir John had sacrificed
| the interests of the maritime provinces TO
the western interests then, and these in
terests would be sacrificed again.
After some further discussion, and
with Mr.. Roche's consent, the resolution
| previously offered by him WAS finally
amended to read as follows:
Whereas it does not appear that the
| dominion government has takon any
steps to renew the reciprocity treaty with
| tho United States; therefore be it
ReSOired, That the local government be
requested to bring the matter to the
! notice OF the dominion government, and
! request them to call upon his eNcellency,
| the admiral, to employ the ships of the
navy in efficiently protecting the fish
cries until reciprocity treaty or other
| arrangement can be effected on fair terms
to this province.
The question being called the resolu-
tiOn was carried unanimously.

District Attorney worthington sup
prisrd Justice Macarthur in the orimi.
nal court yesterday morning by announc-
ing that he was ready TO proceed with
the trial or Henry J. Mclaughlin, which
was known rs one of the navy fraud
cases. IL was evidently no surprise to
Mclaughlin for ho was in attendance
with Mr.. A. II. jackson, his attorney.
"is it on tho assignment asked the
judge.
No SIR replied Mr.. worthington,
but with the admissions made OH both
sides 1t will not take long to try it.
Very we'll; proceed" said the Judge.
Mr.. Worthington said that there was
one indictment against Mr.. Mclaughlin
alone and another against him Joined
with Carrigan and Kirkwood. He pro-
posed to dismiss rs TO tho two last named
and consolidate the two indictments as to
Mr.. Mclaughlin.
There was no objection to this course.
The two indictments are for presenting
tho samo false voucher TO the bureau Of
medicine aud surgery, which was for
galvanic Foradio machines, Co. for
Si.622,l0.
The district attorney, in stating the
case to the jury, said that it was difficult
to tell exactly what 70 do, and he should
lay tho matter before them and abide
their judgment 1t was admitted that
this bill wns presented, that Mr.. Nc
Laughlin did not furnish tho goods, but
that he received the money. Mr.. Nc
Laughlin had stated that Mr.. Dempsey

wish other business ineu to know he was
furnishing these kind Of goods, and got
the witness 10 represent him and receive
the pay, and that he had not boon bon
Gifted ono ceut. The district attorney
said he believed this statement, and
would further say that Mr. Dempsey had
been indicted upon this voucher and
would he triod. With this statement he
submitted to the jury the governmental
case.
/ MIR. Mclaughlin, the defendant, took
/ the stand, aud said ho had never scon tho
/ voucher until he came TO court. Mr..
I Dempsey told him that he had bought
the goods in tho witness name because II
/ was not in his line, aud ho Dempsey
/ did not want to come in contact with the
agents who did furnish such goods. Mt.
/ Dempsey wus business man, standing
we'll in the community, and they had
been friends for long time. He sus'
poctcd nothing wrong, aud az Mr. Demp-
sev's request went to the navy pay
office aud signed tho voucher. He did not
read tho vouchers when signing, aud
signed Just they handed to him, and in
dorscd the check. IL was Immediately
handed to Mr., Dempsey.
"Did you receive any benefit from 1t ??
asked the judge.

"Well, If there is nothing more, gentle

MUNICIPAL MASONRY.

The New Structures Erected A Dis
trict Building Proposed for Judi
cisry Square.
Inspector Entwisle yesterday remarked
to a reporter for THE REPUBLICAN that
tho District has about completed all the
plans for its buildings. and nearly all tho
buildings appropriated for are either
erected or nearing q finish. The plans for
the now seventh precinct station will soon
be completed. The delay upon it has
been occasioned by certain interior
changes thought necessary. Tho District
now owns the finest school buildings Of
any city in the United States, and the
facilities afforded for school purposes are
unsurpassed. The only need now in the
way Of building is one for District
offices. 1t is necessity. The crowded,
inconvenient and combustible char.
acter of Morrison building de-
mands that q safor one should
bo provided for. The present
building is unhealthy, and tho ventila-
tion is poor, besides the arrangements Of
the place cause much Inconvenience to
the public in transacting business. This

Entwisle without a decent municipal

Tho p,nth OF Judge n.rnold..

Further information only goes to con-
firm the correctness of tho assurance here
tcforo given in these columns that tho
death OF eI.Auditor Reynolds was purely
accidental
one would have to so far aud search
thoroughly to find a man more happily
situated in all respects, moro fully con-
scious Of his good fortune, more thor
oughly satisfied with his situation, sur
roundings, and prospects, more hopeful in
spirit, and more unlikely than he to tako
his own life.
There is nothing in tho circumstances
connected with bis death to show that 1t
might not have been caused by accident
without any straining OF probabilities.
No man knowing Judge Reynolds, aud
knowing all these circumstances, holds a
single doubt that ho accidentally fell
down the air well.
All talk Of suicide Is cruelty unjust to
tho memory Of good and brave man and
his afflicted family and friends.
