MoNTnEAr.. July 10.
Al the time Of the election recently held
In the province Of Quebec political feeling
ran high, aud tine hitherto unheard of act
Of kidnapping senator TO prevent him
from taking part In the elections, was COM
mitted. Senator Pelletier arrived In the
county of Komsuraska in the interest Of
the government candidate. On his arrival
at Sc. Anne he vas inveigled into house
BY his political opponents, and there de-
tanned, against his will, as . prisoner, for
the space Of seven hours. much to the In
Jury OF the candidate whose interest he was
looking after. Senator Pelletief, ON be-
ing liberated, reported the outrage 20 the
government, which commissioned Judge
Murray TO inyestigate the matter. Judge
Murray and his assistants examined sew
erai witnesses, vino testified 10 sufficient
facts TO justify the issuing Of warrants for
the arrest of thirsy-cne Of the alleged con-
.spirators, some Of them farmers, others
tradesmen. merchants, etc. One of the
accused ia paofsssor In the St. Anne
college. Twenty five of the accused snr-
rendered themselves and gave bail 60 ap-
pear nj the preliminary examination, which
will be commenced next week. The bail
was fixed at $500 each. There ara yet six

Celluloid and zylonite manufacturers

q combination was about TO be formed by

North Adams, Mass; ths Cslluloid eom-

Lithoid company. Of Newburypoft, Mass,
have been carrent In trade circles for some
time, and II was reported that the consoli-
dation had already taken effect. The an
nouneement was premature. however.
Owing to the absence from the city OF w.
Il. Brown, Of the American Zylonite com-
pany, q meeting that had been arr
ranged by the Representatives Of
the various companies was postponed, and
the articles of agreement will not be signed
until later Ia the week. II IL said the ArI-

According to authentic information, the

and all their patents, patterns and ma
ehinery will be turned over to the United
Celtuloid company, which will hereafter

heretofore made by the concern. IL is
said that separate competition has taken
away the profits of the business, and this
is the cause OF the consolidation. presi-

gladly do so when the matters had bean
