WANT MORE DurY on COAL.

Its Reduction in Canada Has Caused In
creased importation from the u. $.
OTTAWA, Feb. 9.--The removal of the duty
in 1887 increased the importation of anthra.
cite coal from the United States from ,024.-
600 to 2,l34, 900 tons last year In connection
with the imports of coal from the United
States, large deputation of senators and
members of parliament have waited upon
the government, in view of the Pennsylvania
mines having been brought by recent railway
connection very much nearer, urging the
necessity of protecting the bituminous coal
fields of Nova Scotia from American compe.
tition by increasing the duty ON bituminous
from GO cents to so cents per ton. One and
quarter million tons of bituminous coal was
imported from the United States into Canada
last year, an increase of 81, 600 tons over 1870
The Ontario and Quebec representatives are
protesting against any increase in the duty
imposed for the purpose of forcing the west
ern provinces To purchase from the Nova
Scotia mines, while the Pennsylvania coal
fields are right at their door.

Strange Place.
NEW YORK, Sept. 1s.-The body of
Mrs. May Kenney, who has been missing
ten days, was found in a chimney of the
house No. 17S Cherry street, where the
woman boarded before her disappear
ance. Her husband, patrolman, died
recently, and Mrs. Kenney's mind seemed
affected by her grief. She attempted to
commit suicide by jumping from win
dow, but was prevented. She then dis
appeared, and evidently descended into
the chimney, and allowed herself to be
suffocated by the smoke. The body was
discovered by chimney sweep, who had
been sent for because the occupants of the
house complained that the draught of the
chimney was defective and they could
not make their fires burn well. The
clothing had been burned up, and the
body was charred and decayed so that it
weighed only forty pounds, though Mrs.
Kenney had in life weight about 1875
pounds.
