WIPED OUT.
The Governments Big Majority in
Canada Is Gone.

Special to the Globe.
WINNIPEG, March 6.-COmplete re-
turns for the provincial elections are not
yet i'll, but the situation, as wired last
night. is not altered. 1t was at one time
to-day thought that Watson had been
defeated, but later returns give him his
seat beyond all doubt, though by a
slight majority.
OTTAWA, Ont, March 6.-The gov
erDment's big majority has been practi-
cally swept out of existence. The Lib
erals have polled q large majority of the
popular vote, and if the government at
tempts to cling to its power, it must de-
pend for support upon the members
from the Northwest and British COlum-
bia, who are ready to support any party
gaining power. Four members of the
cabinet have been defeated, so that
general reconstruction of the cabinet
will be necessary. 1t is limited that Sir
John Macdonald may resign and allow
Upper TO form a new ministry. Sir
John Macdonald is completely eX-
hausted to-day. He got up despite the
advice Of his physician and answered
the hundreds Of congratulatOry tele-
grams that poured in from all quarters.
The premier has utterly lost his voice,
but expects TO be all right again in few
days. To-day he estimated his majority
at between SO and 30.
MONTREAL, March 6.--An independ-
dent estimate of yesterdays vote gives
the government a majority of from % to
80. Despite what the government
organs may say. it is dseply disappOint-
ing TO the party. The most important
facts revealed by Yesterdays vote are
that the annexation cry is not SO unpOp-
ular in Canada as was supposed. that
closer trade relations with the United
States are inevitable, and that the Lib;
erals will be returned to power at the
next general election.
WASHINGTON, March 6.-Secretary
Blaine said this morning that he had
nothing to say with regard to the Can
adam election, except that there seemed
to be an impression in some quarters
that President Harrison's administra-
ton was interested in the election.
LAS matter of fact" he said, 1.-The adj
mInistration is utterly Indifferent as to
the result. None of the members of
the cabinet took any interest in the
matter and cared less about it than
Canadians usually do about our cleo
tons"

From this It will be seen that the ma
iority of the officials live outside of this
state. Coroner Levey does not antici-
pate that he will have any trouble in Sc
curing their attendance in this city.
They will probably come on here read
ily. for they would have nothing to

ing preceded them half hour and seen
to the preparation Of the bond.

railroad and Director Park, also sur
rendered themselves and gave bonds in
the same amount. Mr.. Clark Informed
the coroner that all the directors and
officers of the road would come to the
coroner's Office at any time suggested.
The coroner said this would not do.
that the only exceptions he would make
were in the cases OF George n. Miller
and Wilson q. Hunt, who were both
old. He would appoint Monday next as
the day for them to appear.
