else nature that the widow Of General Grant
agreed to at the beginning Of the controversy.
Mrs. Grant never disputed the fact of her
husbands having made o contract with General
Badeau. The claim, however, as originally pre-
sented. and as sought TO be enforced in the suit,

Views of Canadian Psoers.

TORONTO, Ont, Oct. 3l-The GLOBE to-day,
on an article headed, Breakers Close Ahead
says: Though Lord S.ckville is the victim of
despicable trick. he IL also the victim of his,
own folly. He stuck his nose into American
home affairs By counseing elector about how
he should vote and influence others TO vote.
The United States Secretary of State argues
with great force that the British ambassador
thus transg-esssd the amenities and the neces-
sary rules of diplomacy in such degree as to
warrant Washington IN demanding his recall.
Accordingly Lord Sackville has been informed
that be is Go longer acceptable 20 tue President

Referring to the report that the retaliation

says: This will be deplorable event. and one,
too likely, to breed very serious difficulties.
Canada may be injured. but 1t cannot be dis
graced by the Presidents resort to so aggressive
q policy. No true Canadian will say that our
government should crawl 10 their terror for the
sake of averting the blow. In other circum-
stances, perhaps, something more than Canada
has conceded already might be houorably yield
ed for good neighborhood sake, but our Domln-

dians should gr0vel on their bellies for friend

New YORK, Ost. 31.-A London special 70 the

THE BREWERY SYNDICATE.
What Is Said by Chicago and Milwaukee Men

business, said: ~ have heard it discussed a
great deal in joking way among brewers, and
we all think there is nothing 10 it do not
think any such syndicate has been formed, aud
do not think it would amount to anything any
way. There is enough American capital to
carry on the American brewing interests, and
were there such syndicate 1t would not be

j. II. McAvoy, president OF the McAvoy Brew

chased not only the New York breweries Of II.

OF New York, were about to GO under
the control OF the same syndicate. He
thought the object was 10 ind better

some time ago received inquiries from the

csived similar inquiries, but his company had
not replied to them. He thought. though, that

A NEW EXPLOSIVE.
II Possesses Twice the Force of Dynamite and
Is Not Dangerous to Handle.

NEW BRITAIN, Conn.,, Oct g., - Rudolph
Ericsson, young Sweds is employed in a drug
store in this city. Before he came to America
he worked with his uncle In a guupowder fac
tory 10 the old country, aud together they ex-
perimented to find new explosive that would
be IS powerful as dynamite out less dangerous
TO handle. 4 few months ago, young Ericsson
received letter from his uncle in which the
latter stated that his experiments had at last
been successful He inclossd the formula OF
the new explosive aud Rudolph got it patented
under the name OF 'Extralite." The new explos-

much the same way Last week Mr.. Ericsson
made q quantity Of it in a stove 10 Curran's drug
store, and then experimented with il before
some persons whom he Is trying TO in srest in it's
manufacture. A mass of rock at Shuttle Meadow
Mountain was selected SIS the scene of the eX-
periments. The first trials were TO prove that
the MIXTURE could not be exploded in the open
air. a small tire was started and two pounds OF
extraits were put in u. The stuff would neither
explode nor buru. lt WAS then thor
ouRhly mixed with kerosene oil, when about
half of 10 burned, but did not explode
A small dynamite cartridge Was inserted n a roll
of the stuff. The cartridge was e, ploded with q
fuse, but the extralte did not explode. Whom
some OF tho substance was placed on a hat stone
ard struck with hammsr, the only result was
to reduce 1t to finer powder A hole two feet
deep was drilled In the hardest rock to be
found IL neighboring quarry. Three rolls Of
the explosive, each containing three ounces,
were tanned down in the hole and connected
with a fuse. The EXPLOSION shook the ground
and the air was filed with fyins powders. The
result achieved would have required two pounds
OF eunpowder or one pound of dynamite, while
only zine ounces of extralite were used. The
manufacture of the explosive Will be commenced
in New Britain at once. The street commission
of Hartford have decided TO use il IN the

have paid ,000 900 francs for the right to use
