Trade Relations.

TORONTO, Feb. 2.-The Empire. a govern
ment organ, referring to the Blaine-Baker
correspondence, says: Blaine remarks
there are no negotiations whatever on for a
reciprocity treaty with Canada and doubt
less the secretary is correct, but The En-
pire afirms that it is true that Blaine e4-
pressed to the British ambassador at Wash
ington a desire for more extended trade re-
lations with Canada. and that he would
like to discuss in an unofficial manner with
Sir Julian Pauncefote and one or more
delegates from Canada, the whole question
of trade relations, with q view to arriving
at a basis for official negotiations. We are
in position to state that, acting on this sug-
gestion. the Canadian government has re-
quested the imperial government to pre-
pose a Joint commission for the purpose
named"

Extravaeant and Disobedient,

BERLIN, Feb. 2.-The White took has
been published here, containing Emin
Pasha's reports to the middle of November
last. These reports form a record of ex-
%travagance and disregard of instructions.
Emin ignored the order to found a station
on Victoria Nyanza. Instead, he hoisted
the flag at Tabora, in spite of Commits
sioner Schmidt's efforts to dissuade him,
the commissioner obiecting on the ground
of great expense. Emin spent 100000
marks instead of the 10000 marks allowed
him. He repeatedly complains of the in
sutiiciency OF his supplies, owing to which,
he SAYS, his men were becoming mutinous.
He, therefore, declines responsibility for
the failure of the expedition.

Perilous Experience Of the Mate of
the s%hipwrecked Schooner
Sailors Home.
Overheard In Midi Ocean, But
Landed on Deck by An
other Wave.
jumping From the Pounding Graft to a
Clilf-Fate OF the Captain and
Cook.

ST.. JOINS, Feb. o.-The following accoun,
of the loss of the schooner Sailors Home
while on a voyage from Sydney to st
Pierre, is given by Mate Elfofd: i was at
the helm, December 9, when a heavy sea
broke over the ship, washing me overheard,
but fortunately l caught a boom tackle ana
on the next lurch of the schooner was
landed again on the vessels deck. Inc
same sea broke into the pinnacle and do
stroyed the compasses. The captain Q
the wheel and / went below for a change OF
clothes. When I came on deck again a
tremendous sea broke over the ship, carry
ing overheard the captain, the cook ana
the wheel. Not seeing any n on deck, l
thought / was the only n left on board.
The next moment I noticed the cook,
BENZ. Miles, ~clinging to OF the stem
davits, which was hanging in the
water. / threw him a rope, which he
grabbed, but I could not haul him
on board. After a while he became ex-
hausted and let go. There was no sign OF
the captain whatever. l next found that
two other members of the crew had saved
themselves by clinging to the rigging. 1t
was showing heavily, with a strong wind.
"We let the vessel drive till about noon
next day. Monday night and all day Tues
day We were busy trying to get
the water out of the vessel,
but the pump got choked. About
midnight of Tuesday the vessel struck
broadside against a cliff. Then one of us
jumped ashore. The vessel went off with a
sea, but was again hove against the cliff,
when another of the crew jumped ashore.
The vessel was again carried off with a wave
and again came in with another wave, strik-
ing the cliff for the third time, when l sue
ceeded in jumping to a crag.. The space on
the rock to which we were clinging was 80
small that we had to hold on to
each other to keep from slipping down.
The cliff was partially covered with ice and
it was extremely cold and showing all the
time. The schooner bounded off a short
distance, capsized and sank. Next morn
ing we commenced to get further up the
precipice, but being weak and cold made
slow progress and did not reach the top till
four p. m. and managed to reach a fisher
mans hut whore we remained for the
night"
