ENCLAND'S ALL RIGHT,
Says Mr.. Gladstone while Declaring
Protection all Wrong.

DUNDEE, October 29.-In his speech today
Mr.. Gladstone said it was not true that the
trade of any country on earth could interfere
seriously with the prosperity of Great Britain
Supposing there were thirty great markets
in the world and in one stringent protec-
tive measure like the Mckinley law was
passed. In that case doubtless the first effect
would be to iDjure us and restrict our deal
But the larger and wider effect would be to
raise the standard of prices. Under protec-
lection this meant diminished power of ex-
portation. Therefore, while we were dam
nlfied in this one market, We were benefited
in the rest. France and Germany threat
ened retaliation. England should not be
led into such suicidal folly. Cheers.l He
thought the Mckinley bill would tend to the
production of finer goods in England and
cheaper in the United States. America
should be left to argue out the question of
protection, and find out for herself the evils
tariff would accomplish. In conclusion
MIR. Gladstone said: "a people as acute as
the Americans will find the way to the re-
suits best for themselves sooner and more
effectually if respectfully left to themselves,
especially by the people of England, to show
that as much as they value Americas com
merce they value her friendship and regard
still more" fCheers.]

RAILWAYS VS.. FISHERIES.
Reported Plans of the AdnlnIstra'
tion Respecting Canadian Roads.

NEW YORK, October ga Washington
despatch to the Herald says:
Secretary WINDOWS annual report will
contain recommendation that the privi-
leges now enjoyed by the Canadian railways
in transporting freight for this country shall
be materially abridged. In a communica-
tion to the Senate concerning this subject,
Secretary Window said:
II am Informed that since the completion
of the Canadian Pacific railway goods arriv-
ing at Vancouver, British Columbia, from
Asiatic ports, destined for the United States
having been placed in the cars of that COM
pany, which were then sealed by the United
States consul at that port and forwarded to
their destination in the United States.
find that this practice has been acquiesced in
by this department in so far that the Gus
toms officials at the frontier ports of arrival
have respected the consular seals and al
lowed the cars to go forward without entry
and examination of their contents IL the
seals were found intact.
II am of the opinion that it was the intent
Of the law to confne the privilege of the
consular seal to cars containing merchandise
of the contiguous country, and that such
privilege does not extend to cars containing
imported merchandise landed in the contigu-
GUS country for transit through II to the
United States. In this view Of the law 1t Is
in contemplation to restrict the privilege to
cars containing merchandise of the contigu-
Gus country"
1t is we'll understood that the adminiStra-
tion Is determined in some way to bring
Canada to terms for her arbitrary conduct in
the matter of the Behring Sea and North
Atlantic fisheries. 1t is believed that this
end may be secured by striking at the sys-
tenn of Canadian railways, and especially
their transcontinental route. The business
which these roads secure from the United
States forms considerable part of their en-
tire transactions.
The administration argues that If the rail-
ways are made to see how dependent they
are upon the good will of the Washington
government they will use their influence to
secure satisfactory adjustment of the
pending International controversies. What
form the recommendation will take cannot
at present be stated. There is no doubt,
however. that the administration is very
much In earnest in the matter, and that the
Secretary's utterances will represent the
wishes both of President Harrison and his
constitutional advisers.

HALIFAX, N. s., October 29.-In the case
of "Dr." Cummings. under arrest here on a
charge of malpractice, evidence adduced to-
night duplicates an Amherst, N. s.. hotel
keeper and his son, as the parties who, it is
alleged, induced Josephine Cormey to en-
ploy Cummings. The girl was given money
and ticket and sent to Halifax. 1t is al
legged that Cummings told the girl that he
had had 20 similar cases, of which six were
in Maine and the rest in Massachusetts and
New Brunswick. Information was given
the police in this case by a DR.. Goodfellow,
who accompanied Cummings here from Am
herst and then left for Boston. Hamilton,
the chemist, has identified Cummings as the
ma n who got poisonous drugs from time to
time. 1t is thought that Cummings and
Goodfellow are assumed names. The letters
found in Cummings possession will be pro-
duced in court tom orrOW.
