INSPECTOR RILEYs EXPLANATION.
Some days ago the Commissioners received a
complaint from some citizens against the nc
ton Of Lumber Inspector Thomas II. Riley in
employing an assistant TO ate nd TO his duties
The Commissioners forwarded the complaint
to Mr. Riley with the request that he explain
the matter. Today he fled his answer, in
which he states that he does not
habitually employ an assistant TO at
tend to his official duties. but gives
them his personal attention. He SAYS he
has an assistant who is practical and expe-
rienced lumberman to mark lumber for him,
but he does it under his personal supervision
and attention. He explains that under pressure
OF work his assistant has marked and tailed
lumber, but that it amounted really to his in
spection, as he WAS responsible for it. Mr..
Riley asks If, under pressure of work, he has
the right TO employ an assistant.

TRI4L or REFORMED MINISTERS.
One of the Accused Parsons Makes an Able
and Amusing Defense.

PrrTsBuBo, PA. June s.--To-day when the
roll of the delegates to the Reformed Pres
byterian Synod was being correcteda motion
was made, and after considerable opposition
was carried, restoring the names OF the sus-
pended ministers on the roll Of delegates.
The attendance at this mornings session
was small. The cases of the trials OF the sus-
pended ministers was resumed at l0:3O
O'clock. ReylA. w. McClurkin was the first
TO take the floor in reply TO the arguments
made by Reys. Mr.. McAllister and George.
Mr.. f. M. Milhgan followed Immediately;
In his reply TO the arguments advanced
by Messrs. McAllister and George, Rev;
Mr.. Milligan allowed no essential
point TO remain uncoyered, and while
the major portion of his address was confined
to a careful analysis of the statements made
by his accusers. he did not fail TO indulge IN
sarcasm of the two-edged variety. and his
thrust in this direction afforded the spec,a-
tors no end Of enjoyment.
Mr.. Milligan had not yet finished his adj
dress when the hour for noon recess arrived.
Immediately upon the reconyenIng. OF the
Synod this Afternoon. Rev Mr. Illllgan ne.
sumed his argument in rebuttal. He said
that after a lapse of six months the Pittsburg
Presbytery was unable 10 bring proof to sup
port the charges that the East End meeting
was a secret one.

THE BEHRING SEA BILL PASSED.
In Moving Second Reading Salisbury Re
fers to the Death of Canada's Premier.

LONDON, June SIN the House Of Lords
to-day Lord Salisbury, in moving a second
reading of the bill relating to the Behring sea.
made a sympathetic reference 10 the death of
Sir John Macdonald.
He said the bill was 10 enable England to
be free to act on the subject of arbitration
and for giving compensation where there
should be any real loss through England's
action.
The Government did not admit liability for
the usual compensation.
The bill was read a second and third time
and passed.
In the House of Lords to-day, Lord Sails
bury said regarding the Behring Sea bIl:
Canada has consented to an order in council
forbidding the killing of seals III Behring sea
by British subjects on two conditions; first.
that arbitration shall proceed; second, that
compensation shall be paid to the owners Of
the fishing vessels sustaining loss through
the action Of the Government. Whether the
Government could persuade Canada 10 pay a
part Of the compensation Lord Salisbury did
not know but it was impossible TO defer
action until the difficulty could be solved.
Therefore the government had assumed the
liability. which could not be heavy"
Lord Kimberly expressed his satisfaction
with the fact that there was every prospect OF
closing the long controversy with the United
States
