ing was held in Judge Whitehouse's room
The citizen committee denounced Paine
ane his methods in the strongest terms pos

tare was INDUCED in.
At piue O'Clock Hon. S j. Walton put
10 an APPEARANCE and calling the landlords
and selectmeD TO another room, in fifteen
mimi utes settled the matter that the meeting
had been considering for an hour and half.
The landlords came from the room and an
nounced d that they had been granted the
satisfactory assurance that they had asked
for, and would open their houses at once
to the public, and continue bu.iness as be-
fore. Up went the shades of the Cobun

ERASTUS WIMAN
On the Elections in South Vic.
toris, Ontario.
Care for The Injured In the LsIis, On.
talio accident.


NEw YoRk. Dec. l9-Eraatus Wiman
10 an interview this afternoon regarding
the defeat of the reciprocity candidate st
election at South Victoria, Ontario, yester-
day. said. This 10 Q blow between the
eyes for the cause Of reciprocity between
the United States and Canada. The trade
question was the pivotal point upon which
the whole contest turned. Both the tories
and liberals made up their minds to regard
the results Of this contest ss an indication
of what might become of the general par
liamentaYy election to be held next year.
.'rhe chief cause of defeat has not
been the slightest indication on the part
of the Uni ed States towards encouraging 9
reciprocal arrangements with Canada. The
last and only official utterance in Congress
is the Mckinley bill. the agricultural sec.
tion of which Canadians regard as = slap
in the face. Beyond all questions the
majority of the people are favorable to the
mos. intimate relations with the United
States. but so long as a frowning face is
turned towards Canada Just 90 long will the
chances for reciprocal advances be post
poned.
The parliamentary elections of next year
will determine whe,hs the friends or enc
mics of the United States shall shape the
destiny of half the continent for the next
fifty years, and failure by Congress to
pass the resolution recommended by the
committee on foreign affairs will have the
result of maintaining the barrier along the
northern portion Of the Union against which
the internal commerce Of the country
breaks like q huge wave, and rolls back
upon itself.

been arrested and locked up for being

The evidence was so staitling that Judge
Walton declared it TO be incredible without
a shadow of authority 10 law, and what

was the boldness and sudscity of the de-
fense in attempting to justify it.
The court held that the taking Of money

was tyrannicsl and should be suppressed
without moments delay. and that on
proof of direct payment to Bailey could be
recovered, as e1tortion from the prisoner
while in duress.
These charges have been publicly made
for the past two mor tbs, have been openly
and frankly admitted by the marshal, and
the press Of our city has loudly called upon
