the Canadian Railway Scandal.
MONTREAL, Nov. 13.-The royal commits
sioners investigating the Baio des Cha.
leurs railway scandal have concluded their
labors so far as the taking of evidence is
concerned. The evidence adduced, though
principally OF a circumstantial character,
has proved that Ernest Pacaud, editor OF
T. Electeur, received 100000 from c. N.
Armstrong, former contractor Of the
railway; that several ministers received
large peeuuiary advantages from this
money; that misappropriated funds were
in part employed in paying obligations TO
the amount Of over $4,000 for which Pre-.
mier Mercier, one Of his colleagues, and
prominent members Of the Liberal party
were personally responsible.
Hon. Charles Langelier, provincial sec
retary, benefited to the extent OF about
500 by the transaction he was largely
instrumental in effecting, and that not a
single step had been taken by the proyin-
cial government to recover the misappro.
priated money or to punish the men who
conspired TO rob the treasury.
The conservatives claim that an over
whelming case has been made against the
Mercier government, and they ask the
lieutenant governor to dismiss the Mer-
cier cabinet The Mercierites claim that
while some OF their party may be impli.
Gated no case has been made out against
the premier, and they dare the governor
