WHEN the first vessel completed the
trip of the then new Erie Canal, in
1925, there being no such thing as tel
elegrah line in those days, the news
was communicated to New York and
to Buffalo by cannons placed within
hearing of each other all the way
along from Albany to each of the other
cities. The signal was passed along
in this way from Albany to New York
City and back again to Albany in
fifty eight minutes The experiment
was costly one, but was a success in
every particular.

why Premier Parkes of New South
Wales Resigned.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 29.-The steam
ship Alamrda arrived this morning,
twenty-four days from Sidney, via Hon
olulu.
A prolonged debate took place in the
New South Wales assembly, September
10Th, on the management of railways by
board of Railway commissioners. A
section of the assembly headed by Mr..
Schey, were opposed to the commission
ers, desiring to increase the power of
parliament in the matter, or rather to
abolish the non-political system of the
managemnt OF railways. Schey charged
the commissioners with being corrupt,
but gave no particulars. Sir Henry
Parkes, the premier, then responded
at length, according his support to the
present railway policy. He pointed out
that the resolution which Schey desired
to pass amounted to an order to the
government to bring in a bill to amend
the railways act in the direction of cur
failing the powers Of the commissioners
He declared that the house might pass a
resolution for the purpose, but the gov
eminent would not obey it. The pre-
mier's speech virtually converted the
motion into one OF censure of the adj
ministration. The motion was finally
negatived by 43 to 20.

The French Senate Acts Favorably To-
wards American Pork.
PARIS, Oct. 29.-The senate today de-
ciared urgent the discussion ON the ques-
tion OF the duty on salt meats. Minis
ter of Commerce Roche read reports
showing that trichinosis did not exist in
Great Britain or Belgium, although
those countries imported American pork
freely. The disease in Germany, he
declared, was due to native meats.
All learned bodies, he declared, had
stated that American meats were innoc-
uous, and their admission into France
would. be great boon to the working
people of the country. After further
discussion of the bill, the government
demanded its adoption on the ground
that the demand OF the United States
was legitimate, and France ought to
comply with it in the interests Of the
trade OF the two countries. The motion
was then adopted, 179 to "a, and the
senate proceeded to discuss the details
OF the measure.

System of Pardoning.
SACRAMENTO, Oct. 20. = Governor
Markham has decided to inaugurate q
new plan in regard to the granting of
pardons. He thinks the pardoning
action should be more open and public
than in the past, and will receive all ap-
plications and carefully examine each
one. If he deems the action of the
court proper and just, he will deny the
application. II after reading the
appeal he finds there is rea-
son Tor executive clemency, he
will submit the subject to
the board of prison directors, and ask
them by vote to express their opinion
in regard to the prisoners worthiness to
receive clemencv. The board will hear
what the warden has to say of the con-
vict's prison life, and they may examine
fully all the circumstances that may be
brought to their attention. If the board
approves the application, then the
governor will exercise his discretion as
to whether a pardon shall be granted or
not. The governor will insist that these
meetings OF the board shall be public.

LONDON, Oct. 29.-In Canadian circles
in England great disappointment is ex-
pressed at the failure of the British
postoffice authorities to make the neces-
sary arrangements for fast mail service
between the dominion and Great Brit
ain. The Canadians claim that their
government has done everything posi-
Bile to induce English capitalists or the
English government to undertake to
fuinish'a postal service equal to the best
similar service between New York and
England; but, it is added, in spite of all
the efforts made in this direction, the
Canadians and those directly interested
in Canada have failed to accomplish the
object they had in view.

bone in the meat, the rations were
ignored. There has been no trouble
