The question Of an indemnity to the
Jesuits Of the Providence OF Quebec fol
the property seized by the British Grown
HUNDRED years ago has stirred up all
Canada. The indemnity question is.
however, Of much less moment than an.
other question 1t has brought into con.
trovery which is already setting by the
ears the Roman Catholics and the Prot.
estants Of Canada.
The proposed arrangement provides
for contract between the British Grown
and the Pope of Rome. This, Of course,
requires that the Pope shall be treated
with as a temporal sovereign, an attitude
which the Protestant Canadians are not
willing to be placed in, 1t Is unfortu-
nate for the peace of the Dominion that
this question has been raised, and the
world is likely to hear more oft

BLAZE ON A LIGHTER.
Two Hundred and Thirty-three Bale
of Cotton Damaged.

Two Hundred and Thirty-three Bales
of Cotton Damaged.
A few minutes after the cotton mill fire
broke out yesterday afternoon fire was dis
covered in lot Of compressed cotton on
lighter Number Z, belonging to the River
Lighterage Company.
The lighter had been towed down from
the Ocean Steamship Company's wharf to
Paulsen's wharf about two hours before,
and was moored alongside of the German
bark Triton, which was lying abreast OF
the Norwegian barks Ophir and Iona
When the cotton was delivered alongside of
the Triton the mate counted and receipted
for it. Shortly afterward the stevedores
began hauling the cotton aboard Of the
bark, when all of a sudden flames flashed
up among three bales on the eastern end of
the lighter, and ran aloug the top of the
bales which were lying heads up.
The lighter was Immediately cast loose
from the bark, and it began to drift up the
stream with the tide. The tug Forest City
which was nearby with steam up, made
quick time to the burning lighter, and took
1t in tow, followed almost Immediately by
the tugs Maud and Constitution. Policeman
Lightbody ran to box No z and turned in an
alarm. The tugs had by this time got their
pumps working and were pouring water on
the burning cotton. The Forest City
towed the lighter to the opposite side of the
river and in a very short time the fire was
under full control and inside Of two hours
it was pretty well extinguished. The cot
ton was rolled ashore where t Forest City
lay by and kept a stream of water on it,
The Triton was loading cotton for a
Baltic port and the 233 bales on the lighter
were shipped by Messrs. Wilder & Co. and
were fully covered by insurance in Europe.
The cotton averaged in value abOut S4S Der
bale aud is probably damaged to the extent
Of $20 per bale. The damage to the lighter
and the losssof the tarpaulins will be about
$500 making the total loss of about between
$1,000 and $4,000. The origin of the fire Is
as much a mystery as most cotton fires are

A SUGGESTIVE SALE.
The Informed Not Surprised.


In noticing the prices obtained at the sale
of lots yesterday afternoon, it is proper to
say that it is only the natural result of re-
cent and foreshadowed events.
The outlook for our city for the immedi-
ate future, is such that the most conserva-
tive are obliged to admit the desira bility
of real estate Investments.
Such has been the drain, so to speak.
upon the stock of lots north of Anderson
street, aud such has been the advance in
price of the few left, that home seekers
have been waiting such an opportunity as
was afforded yesterday.
The prices obtained were such as might be
expected from the desirabiLty of the loca-
tion and liberality of the terms. Many of
the large crowd present returned home dis
appointed. There were only twenty lots,
and not enough to go around The lots to
be sold tomorrow afternoon will afford
another opportunity for buyers, and it will
be safe to expect even a larger crowd of
buyers.
It would be very strange, if this was
otherwise, for the exceedingly easy terms
of cash payment of $25, and IS per
month should induce many persons to in
vest. Certainly nothing eau ever be lost,
but much may be made by such au invest
ment
