denier emplOyed counsel, visited the
Judge who had given the warrant here
and got him to indorse the original war
rant. Their intention was to remove
Cadby at once to Hamilton Tor extradi-
ton, and this they proceeded to effect by
getting him surrendered from the iailer
and taking the earliest train out OF the
city on Monday morning. They waited at
the junction and took the regular train
later to Monctou, 1888 miles north.
Meantime Stowe and his counsel APP
peared at the time set forth for the ex-
animation and were very mad at the
sDiriting away of Cadby. They got the
Judge to issue an order for Cadby's re-
turn, as he should not have been released
before 10 o'clock. The order was tele-
graphed to Stewart at several points be-
fore reaching MOncton, but was ignored.
stewart and the prisoner having several
hours In Montreal waiting for the Quebec
train, went to the principal hotel, but
were astonished to find that the United
StatesCOnsula lar Agent was the proprietor.
Ihey neglected to register their names,
and after a hearty meal stole quietly
away in team TO the station, miles
along the railway, where they took their
train at IL o'clock at night. They went
to New Castle. so miles. where they were
hauled out OF their berths by the police
and lodged in jail for contempt of court in
not Ooeying the Halifax Judges order.
GARDENER was with them, and Stowe was
also ON the same train,it having left Hall
fax late in the afternoon.
Stewart is the giant Scotchman who
engineered ReiPs execution at Regina,

fused passage, but followed by REGULAR

MonctOn, and counsel and a detective
from Halifax also proceeded thence on
Wednesday.
While argument was proceeding in
court there that afternoon another writ
was served on Stewart requiring him to
produce Cadby in st. John, 30 miles in an
opposite rectiOn. He went this morn
ing, still manacled to his prisoner and
followed by counsel from MonctOn, New
Castle, and Halifax. There he was ar

other writ will order them to the pro-

Justice has telegrapbed the Judges not to
interfere with eXtTaditiOn arrangements.
If counsel continue TO be engaged in each
place, there will soon be a small army in
the retinue.

joys his adventures immensely living at

Vester Company Propose Doing in Tn =
South.
From the Ne1 York World.
The problem of picking cotton in the
field has at last been solved, and during
the coming season a number of machines
which are now being manufactured under
the patents OF Mr.. o. L. Bugg, the Geor-
gia inventor. and owned by the United
States Cotton Harvester Company, whose
office is in the Cotton Exchange, will be
in active operation, The exhibition which
was recently given on the floor Of the Ex-
change under very great disadvantages,
demonstrated that the machine would do
the work it is intended for. Since that
time work has been begun on the new and
improved machines, and it is safe TO say
when they are completed they will pick
fully so per cent. OF the cotton in the field,
once going over. There are also in course
of manufacture small machines for plant
ers who have only a limited number Of
acres under cultivation.
Under the most favorable circums ances
the United States Gotten Harvester Com
pany does not expect to sell outright
many machines this season, but 1t is de-
teTmined that the people OF every section
of the South shall have a chance TO wit
ness the working of the harvester on the
plantations. Ocular demonstration is
wat the planters want, and they are to
have it.
Said gentleman who has large inter-
ests in Mississippi and Louisiana, and
VINO has taken great interest In the de-
velOpment OF the machine: "NOOne knows
better than planter that the perfection
of a machine for picking cotton in the
South will be the salvation OF that part Of
the country. Nothing is needed so mucn.
/ have seen many Inventions teated for the
first time, but have yet 10 see one placed
before the people for an initial test as tar
advanced as was the contemplating
machine exhibited on the floor of he Ex-
change. Itpcked cotton and delivered it.
and what more can be asked for on the
first test. Ofcourse there are some minor
defects which are yet to be owe come, but
that is always the case. Was there ever
a thing made perfect at first"
At the office OF the United States Cotton
Harvester Company Mr.. Bugy, the Presl-
dent, said that the people OF the South
will not be disappointed tots season. The
machines Will be put in active operation
i'm the fail. Mr.. Bugg has organized his
company under the laws OF the STATE Of
New York. aud has set aside a small pOr-
ton of the stock for sale. The proceeds
are intended 10 increase the manufac-
turing facilities OF the company and for
that only. for, knowing that he has good
thing in the machine, Mr.. Bugg intends
to hold on TO his interest.
