Transpacific Steamers Refuse to Do
Further Business for the Road.
OTTAWA (Ontario) October 29th-The
traDspaeitic steamers between Chinn, japan
and British Columbia will after November
23d, stop running. The Government and
Canadian Pacific Railway have been noti-
fed by the steamship company that it is
determined to terminate the contract with
the railway company. There seems to be
difficulty with shipping connections both
on the Atlantic and Pacific
The news of the abandonment Of the
Atlantic fast service and the transpaci6c
almost simultaneous announcement were
quite unexpected, ard will cause the rsil-
way great Inconvenience and loss IN the
future. just IS the C,nadisn ports are striv-
ing to tear some OF 'he Eastern trade from
San Francisco. This move is considered
fatal to the maritime hopes Of the Canadian
Pacific
The officials of the steamship company
gave no reason for the discontinuance Il
is understood that the reason lies in con-
tracts Just given by the railway cop pany
to Glasgow firm for building steamers for
new fast line for this route. Sir Wii,iem
Pearce and other owners Of the steamship
line are also members Of another Glasgow
firm, and it has been understood eli along
tnht thty Nouiu IeCeiVe tue dooNe COnt4de-.
To punish the railroad company for having
broken faith with the steamship company
which is run in connection with the rail-
way, they determined 10 throw up the con-
tract.
Orders have been issued to all agents in
structing them not to book passengers or
freight for China or japan after November
22d. The line is subsidized annually to tae
extent of S45 600 by the English Govern
ment and 100000 by the Dominion. The

ranged it that the subsidies of Ergland and
Canada would reach a total of $300,0 COO ne

WASHINGTON, October 29th.-Secretary
Noble has taken decided stand with refer
ence to the Cherokee outlet, Indian Terri
tory. As it is known that the Cherokee
Indians have declined to sell unassigned
lands 10 the Government at 81 % per acre.
so that it may be thrown open to settle
ment, and Mobiles adgices from there were
to the effect that the cattle syndicate, who
had leases on the land, were backing the
Indians up in declining and offered TO re-
new their lease for fifteen years at $40, 900
per snnum, or less than the Government
offered, Noble therefore secured an opinion
from Assistant Attorney General Shields
that the law declared such leases unlawful
and illegal. This fact being established,
Noble has written q letter to General Fair
child, Chairman of the Cherokee Commits
sion, setting forth the above facts and de-
claring the leases illegal, and ordering the
lessees TO leave Cherokee outlet on or be-
fore June 1st next, with their cattle and
fixtures. He also gives broad hint that if
the Indians do not accept the Governm lent
offer for land, the Government may assert
its right to transfer other Indian tribes and
settle them upon the outlet, as the treaty

KNOTTY QUESTION.
Can the Imported GIass-Blowers be Sent
Back?


WASHINGTON, October 29th.-Assistant
Secretary of the Treasury Tickenor to-day
gave hearing to parties from New York
and Massachusetts with reference to the
proper classification of duties on imported
glass disks and lithographic plates. No
decision was rendered.
Acting Secretary Bachelor has received
from District Attorney Lyons, of Western
Pennsylvania a full report of the case of
the twenty. five glass blowers who We're al
lowed 10 land in Boston in May, and who
went to WORK at Jeannette, Va. Later on
ii transpired that they were brought over
under contract, and thus violated the Law
prohibiting the importation Of contract
labor. Lyons reports that the law has
been violated He desires to and will prose-
cute those connected with bringing the
men over, but states that he can find no
law to sustain him in now sending the men
back, as they were allowed to land, and
the law only provides that such shall not
be allowed to land. Bachelor has re-
ferred the matter to the Attorney neral
for an opinions whether the mea can be
seized now and returned.
