TWO VOICES.
Singleton, of Chicago, and Sher-
lin. of Minnesota.

lin, OF nInneSOTa-
Gen. Singleton of Chicago, was re-
ceived with applause. He said:
1--WE are engaged in great battle and
fighting the common enemy of human
ity. We cannot afford to know defeat.
In Illinois we are thoroughly organized.
We began there on the 1st of January,
sending out five organizers, whose work
has been so effective that at the present
time there is scarcely a county in that
state unorganiZed. The work is going
on grandly, and in November we will
roll up in Illinois not less than $4,000
votes. Cheers. We may not elect our
candidates, but we will elect the prohi-
bitiOn issue.
Mr.. Sherlin, Scandinavian leader
upon being called on, said:
''The prohibition vote has grown to
such proportions that it looks like reg
ular landslipe. The ScandinavianS
state between the two parties. l would
rather be that bone than either OF these
parties. [Cheers.[
We are not in the fight as office-seek-
ers, but for prohibition. The Republi-
cans have tried to make us believe that
they have done all for temperance. The
New York museums ought to hire the
anti-saloon Republicans to exhibit as
curioSitieS. The ScandinavianS will be
with you. The state is hOney-combed
with prohibition. Wewill roll up a ma
jority that will surplise-not the report
ers, for nothing can surprise them-but
the editors. Cheers.

said to be Mr. Doran on one side, and
the regular Democratic county commit
tee ON the other. The stake at contest
is the delegation from Ramsey county in
the state convention. The reason for
the contest: Mr.. Doran's desire to con-
troll the Ramsey county delegation in
the interest of his gubernatorial candi-
date, and ON the other side, opposition
to Mr.. Doran's debating the course of
the delegates.
That is the information that comes

lous, as l am for neither side of the
question although member of the

sent from the county to the state con-
vention the independent one is to be

This independent delegation is the
one which Mr.. Doran and his friends
are reported to be working for. Says a

MURDERED HER HUSBAND.
A Young Wife Helps Her Brother
in q Bloody Deed

QUEBEC, Que. July 24.-Friday last
at Wolfeton, Richmond and Wolfe
counties. Pierre Eassiac, a wealthy
young farmer, who six months ago mar
ried the sister of one Remi Lamontague,
was murdered by his wife and Remi.
The latter came to EasSiac's, and after
drinking considerable whisky began to
take liberties with his own sister. who
seemed rather partial to his attentions.
Eassiac Indignantly ordered him to
leave the house, and he did so, Mrs:
EaSSiac embracing him as he departed
and begging him not to cease to love
her because her husband had insulted
him. A quarrel followed between man
and wife, in the course of which La
montague re-entered with pistol, with
which he shot EaSSiac through both
cheeks and with razor procured by the
wife cut his victims throat.
.SEVERING THE WINDPIPE.
The murderers then stretched the
SenSeleSS form upon bed, covered it
with mattress, set fire to the bed and
left the house, which. with the barn,
they fired from the outside. Eassiac, re-
covering his senses, dropped from the
window. crawled to neighbours three
quarters of a mile sway, told the story
by signs and then tainted away. At
that moment Mrs. Eassiac appeared,
apparently in an agony of grief, to beg
assistance to save her husband from the
burning house. When taken up stairs
and confronted with her husband she
quite lost her self-possesslon and as
Sumed an Indifference that was abso-
lutely silly. Eassiac died yesterday
noon. The wife is in Jail awaiting trial
for murder. LamOntague has disap-
peared. Officers have gone to seek him
at his home in New Halifax. The sister
came directly out of convent to marry
Eassiac. But for the priests action VIC
lence would have been done her by the
Infatuated farmers.

WASHINGTON, July 24.-To-day
Judge Macdonald furnished another
proof of his influence and popularity in
the house and ability to secure the pas
sage of his measures, by securing the
passage of his bill to ''forfeit
lands granted the Hastings & Dakota
Railroad company and for the relief of
settlers upon the same and certain pur-
chaSerS thereof" under circumstances
which surprised even those who had
become
FAMILIAR WITH HIS SUCCESS.
When the hour arrived for the con-
sideration of such measures, a deter
mined effort was about to be made by
Mr.. Springer and Gen. Weaver to Sc
cure consideration of the bill organic
ing, the territory of Oklahoma,
and it was manifest that
an equally determined effort
was to be made by Mr.. Holman in OPP
position to that measure. Both those
gentlemen were about

as privileged measure of the Hastings

down and speaking quietly to Mr.. Hol-
man, that gentleman nodded assent, and
then Judge Macdonald turned to Mr..
Springer and said: Il hope the gentle
man from Illinois will yield for a few
moments" and to
TIE SURPRISE OF THE HOUSE
Springer yielded, and Judge Mac
Donald had the control of the floor. The
bill was read, and after one of his
pointed speeches ill its support the bill
passed without a dissenting voice.
There were numerous comments on the
splendid parliamentary tactics displayed
and the preliminary movements which
must have been made prior to the meet
ing of the house.
Not content with this victory, he al
tended the evening session of the house

an exceptionally good days work and

successful working of the gentleman

DISCRIMINATION ALLEGED.
Charges Made Against the Can

American Vessels

Charges Made Against the Can
adian Government Affecting
American Vessels.
WASHINGTON, July 24-Aeting sec
rotary of the treasury Thompson has
made reply to the resolution passed
by the house at the instance of Repre-
sentative Dingley, of Maine, calling for
information in regard to Canadian dis
elimination against American vessels.
passing through Canadian canals bound
for American ports. He says that it
appears that an order has been issued
by the authorities of the Dominion, and
is now in force, by which vessels from
ports in the United States laden with
wheat and other merchandise for eX-
port otherwise are required to pay less
toll in passing through the Welland
canal when they pursue their voyage by
way of the st. Lawrence river and Mon
treal than when they pursue their vOy-
age by way of Lake Ontario and other
AMERICAN ports. The Canadian regula-
ton operates as discrimination against
American ports and American railways
and canals and American vessels. The
attention of the secretary of state has
been invited to the subject. The acting
secretary says that further legislation
will be necessary if
TOLLS ARE TO BE IMPOSED
by the secretary of the treasury upon
vessels passing through the Sault Ste.
Marie and st. Clair canals and bound
for Canadian ports east of the Welland
canal.
I. In letter from the commissioner of
navigation, transmitted with the acting
Secretary'S report, that officer reciteS
the terms of the treaty of Washington,
by which the British government un-
dertakeS to urge upon the Dominion
government the use Of the Welland and
other Canadian canals by American
citizens upon terms of equality with
the inhabitants of the Dominion, and by
which the United States engages to
grant to British subjects equal privi-
legeS with those granted its own citi-
zens in the use of the st. Clair flats
canal. He suggests that the collection
of the tolls on vessels bound for Cana
dian ports be placed in the hands of the
secretary of war. who is already
charged with certain jurisdiction over
the property.
In conclusion he says that if the
British government has carried out its
agreement to urge upon the government
of Canada the allowance of equal prlvi-
leges to the citizens of the United
States, it would seem that its efforts
have met with small success.
AS the matter now stands there is
very material discrimination against
American ports, railroads and vessels.

Judge MacDonald's Bill to Forfeit
Lands Passed BY the House---

OuuSe MaClIOndiu > Dill 10 fOfIciC
Lands Passed BY the House---
Opening the Indian Territory.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, July 24.-There was
not a quorum present in the house to-
day. Most Of the time of to-day's ses-
sion was spent discussing the ''Okla-
homa" bill, which went over without
action.
The senate bill appropriating 100000
for an appraisers warehouse at Chicago
was passed; also senate bill prohibiting
the transmission of matter through the
mails in transparent envelopes. In the
morning hour the bill relating to the de-
tail of army and navy officers to educa-
tlOnal institutions was discussed, but
the hour expired before vote could be
reached.
Mr.. Mcdonald, from the committee on
public lands, reported the bill to forfeit
the lands granted to the Hastings u
Dakota railroad. and it was passed.
The house then went into commit
tee of the whole on the Oklahoma bill.
Mr.. Baker, of New York, opposed the
bill, as one which would break down
treaty stipulatiODs with the Indians.
MIR. Warren, of Missouri, in advocating
the passage OF the bill, said its
object was to open up to bona
tide settlers-not to land sharks-22,0 Oo,-
600 acres of land and this could be done
without infringing upon the rights OF
the Indians.
Pending further debate the commit
tee rose and the house at 5 p. m. took
recess till o'clock, the night session to
be devoted to bills reported from the
committee on public lands.

PENSION VETOES.
Lively Tilt in the Senate Between
Messrs. Davis and CockreH.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, July 24.-After the
transaction of some routine business,
the resolution to print 5000 copies of
the present committees report on
the subject of vetoed pension
bills was taken up by the
senate. The question being on Mr..
Cockrell'S amendment to print 1000
copies of President Cleveland's pension
vetoes. Mr.. COckrell explained his OBJ
ject IN having these messages printed.
These veto messages of President
Cleveland were excellent reading. and
the people were
VERY ANXIOUS TO READ THEM.
MIR. Davis justified the action of the
committee in reporting bill to pension
Mrs. DOherty, one of the bills vetoed by
the president, and in critjcising the
presidents action in that case, for read
ing congress homily on its careless
ness and remisness i'll passing pension
bills, said there was not a word
of truth in the presidents assertion
that Mrs. Doherty'S husband had ever
draw pension. He advised the par
ticular lite Barnacle of the pensions
circumlOcutiOn office" who furnished
information to the president to be lit
tie more prudent and circumSpect in his
investigation. More than this, the po-
lice had placed to her credit the
arrest of another woman named
Doherty. This observation was made
in reply to the presidents allie
CATION that Mrs. Doherty was
a lawless person, and had behn arrested
frequently, and it showed, he added,
the extraordinary pains taken by the
emiSsarieS of the pension Office to enable
the president to frame veto out of
which
POLITICAL CAPITAL MIGHT BE MADE.
Mr.. COckrell dared the committee Oh
pensions to make a report recommends
ing the passage of the bill on the ground
that Mrs. Doherty had been a govern
ment employe at the time she was in
jured by an explosion in the
arsenal; he just dared them to do it.
The woman, he said, had never been
employed at the arsenal; had never
been blown up" That part of her
claim was false and fraudulent The
whole story was cOncoction.
At 80 Mr.. Hale expressed the fear
that the interesting Doherty debate
might become lurid and lasting, and
asked the senate TO let it go over with
out action and take up the naval appro-
priation bill. This was agreed to.

HAS NO JURISDICTION.
An Opinion Delivered by One of
the Members of the Interstate

the Members OF the Interstate
Commission.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON. July 24.-The inter-
state commerce commission has an
nounced an opion prepared by Commits
sioner SchOonmaker, disSmissing the
complaint of the New Jersey Fruit ex-
change against the Central Railroad
company of New Jersey, and the Lee
high Valley Railroad company. The
point in controversy was the unreasOn-
ableness of the rates on peaches from
points on the defendants lines in New
Jersey to New York city, but as it was
unquestionably shown by the evidence
that the peaches were delivered in Jer-
Sey City, and the carriage to New York
was by the consignees, the commission
holds that the transportation was en-
tirely within the state of New Jersey,
and therefore beyond its jurisdiction.
1t is thought appropriate to observe,
however, that in view of the increasing
volume of business in the peach traffic
and the increasing competition in the
New York market, reasonable reduc-
ton in the rates might be just; that
rates which were probably reasonable
and necessary in the infancy of the bus
mess might now be reduced to some eX-
tent and still leave reasonable margin
Of profits. These are said to be conSid-
erationS which address themselves to
the sense of justice of the carriers, ana
rest on the principle of fair dealing that
is due between the carriers and their
customers.
