The Inman steamer, City of Richmond
sailed the last four davs of her recent
eastward voyage with the cargo on fire
10 her hold. June II, the Servia bore
down upon her and soon after the City
of Paris was sighted. The three captains
held a consultation and decided that
the Servia accompany the burning YES
sci to Queenstown. When the fire was
discovered a gale was blowing and a
high sea running. The boats were got
ready for launching, but it was not
deemed best to launch then in the heavy
sea unless absolutely necessary. By
turning steam into the hold the fire was
kept under control and when the vessel
arrived at her dock it was dying out.
This incident shows how safe ocean
travel has become. Last year not one
life was lost by accident on any of the
great passenger lines. Safer than rail-
way travel on land.

Notes.
Canada's new premier is j. j. G. Alb
bott, a leading commercial lawyer of
Canada, but was never considered much
of a statesman. He has long been an in
innate political and personal friend of
Sir John Mcdonald. He is 20 years old
and of Canadian birth, the son of an An
glican clergyman; he was educated at
McGill university and called to the bar
in lS47, and has lived most OF the time
since in Montreal. He was first chosen
to parliament in 1857 and reelected in
1867, after the union and has served al
most continuously since. He was for
short time in the cabinet in 1862 and was
in the opposition in 1864, when he
put through the commons the present
jury law of Canada, and fee law gov.
erning court and other fees which is also
the law of to-day. In 1872 he was again
elected to the commons, and became un-
favorably known through his part in the
Pacific road scandals, which resulted in
his practical defeat in 1874, when, though
declared elected, he was unseated by the
comlnonS, III lofo. ne was again deIeaCed,
but won the seat in 1880. He has been
to England as representative of the do
minion, and has been twice mayor of
Montreal In 1887 he was made govern
ment leader in the dominion senate.
from which position he has been called
to become prime minister. His election
is the outcome of a necessity for patch
work government which shall tide over,
temporarily, at least, the present crisis.
1t is practically throwing sop to the
Catholics, land the races to keep them in
line. The real business of government
will be conducted by Sir Charles Taper
who is much the ADLER man.

July Comptroller Lacey acknowledged
the receipt of the above, and says that the

an important omission, after two weeks

Hare was an attorney of the court enti-
tied TO practice If his name was not on
the roll the Judges instructions were to
erase his name from the papers where he
had signed it, Mr.. Rogers said he could
not find Mr. Haire's name so he erased
the signature of the judge. Mr.. Hare,
however, secured certified copy of the
petition, and he then started for the train,
saying that the fact of the application
having been filed in the circuit court, and
he being furnished with certified copy,
was equivalent to a stay. He said he
would have Judge Lacombe impeached if
Wood was executed before he had time to

seph d. Morrison, the well-known
music teacher, and organist of the
Hamline M. E. Church, of this city,
attempted suicide this morning at
his rooms in the Specht block. He
first stood before the glass and cut
his throat with razor, and then lay
down on bed and stabbed himself
in the throat sixteen times with a
penknife. Neither the carotid artery
nor the windpipe were severed. but
several small arteries were cut, and
the chances are against his recovery.
He failed to show up for breakfast
at his boarding house, and w. S.
McCauslen, Esq, climbed over the
transom into his room, and found
him lying on the bed bathed in blood.
About three years ago Dr. j. B.
Morrison, a popular dentist, and a

very suddenly in the same city about
month ago Mrs DR.. Seit of Pitts
