RIel's ~Predicament.

TORONTO, Nov. 14.-The Mail to-day
has the following special from Winnipeg
under. date of the 18th: A special mes
senger passed Port Arthur this afternoon
ON his way TO Regina, bearing the Gov
ernor Generals warrant for the execution
Of Riel ON Monday next. He will reach
Winnipeg tomorrow morning and Regina
ON Sunday morning. ALI preparations
for the execution are completed. Riel
was made aware some days ago that the
sentence of the court would be carried
into effect on Monday. After his first
reprieve he go. 1t into his head that he
would not be sent to the Penitentiary, and
his spiritual advisers could do nothing
with him, his manner becoming insolent
and at the same time exceedingly offensive.
But when the news was broken to him on
Monday evening last that he must prepare
for death he sobered down. Riel's rela-
tions and friends at Saint Vital, five miles
from here, sre aware that Monday will
end all. They are naturally very much
broken down. His poor old mother he.
came crazed some months ago during the
rebellion, 30 that to-day she Is unable to
realize the dreadful position in which her
son Is placed. Joseph, his brother, who
is q most respectable man, is in q dreadful
state OF mind. Riel's wife, whom he did
not treat we'll during tho rebellion, leav-
ing her exposed to danger and to hunger,
is reported to be nearly heart-broken, but
priests are with her and the other relatives,
and everything that can be done to com
fort them will be done. Riel's family have
from the first secuted the idea that the
prisoner was insane. They say he had de-
lusions on religion and on the subject OF
his own importance, but that on ell mat.
tors he was not only sam but exceedingly
intelligent and clever.
Tired of Hell ON Earth.
BALTIMORE, Nov. 14.-Wm. E. Stone to-
night shot his wife Julia, then himself.
They were taken to the Maryland Univers.
ity Hospital, when Mrs. Stone was found
to be shot through the head, from the
effects of which she died In a short time.
Stone was shot in the face. His wounds
are not necessarily fatal. He left a long
~incoherent letter, addressed to the public,
in which he said that for 20 years he had
lived in hell because Of his deceitful wife
and mother-in.l law, but now that his two
eldest daughters were being led astray and
his home about to BIO broken up he could
stand il no longer and he made up his
mind to put an end to his troubles. He
requested his friends to take care Of his
little ones and put them where they can
be properly raised, and where none of his
wife's relations can have anything to do
with them. Stone has the reputation OF
being q sober, industrious man, aud to
always provide for the wants Of his family.
He had been married 20 years, has nine
children, ranging from II months to 18
years.
