CANAUI'S ELECTION.

Sir John Macdonads victory in Canada is
substantial. lie has issued from the ballot
boxes with a Parliamentary support much re-
duced, but strong enough to enable him to gov
ern in ordinary conditions. How far this re-
suit represents the free will of the Canadian
people is quite another question. The answer
will be indicated by the figures showing the
total poll on either side throughout the Domin-
ion-indcated, but not at all assured. For, in
considering how far lis victory is illustrative OF
actual Canadian sentiment, Sir Johns unscrupu-
lous gellynander must be accounted for as well
as the conduct Of such oppressive corporations
as the Canadian Pacific Railroad. The Lib
erals were drawn into fight without notice.
They were unprepared. They had no mlney
even for the most urgently necessary expenses.
The situation was made up against them. BY
gerrymanders comparable for dishonesty and
audacity only with the Ohio Democratic gerry
mander of 1889, they we're cheated in advance
out OF at least twenty seats which by any decent
division Of the electorate would naturally fall
to them. All the powerful class, sectional and
sectalian interests were at work iiercey for Sir
John. He represented churchly establishments
as against absolute freedom of worship and de-
aOminational equality He represented monopoly
as against severe competition. lie represented
the British tie as against nobody was willing
to say what. The Opposition was sadly hand-
capped.
In view Of these facts it must be granted that
the Liberals did immensely well. The Govern
ment succeeded in so shaping the campaign as

may suggest themselves but so far as can be
perceived the Coroners jury covered all branches
of the case. The Commissioners appear to re-

brick case begun to-day. Sir Charles Russell,
who was Attorney General under Mr.. Gladsones last
administration, in opening his argument, said that
the appeal raised an extremely important question.
The plaintiffs, for whom he appeared. were the
ecutors of Mr. Maybrck, who had effected
of $4,000 with the defendants. an insurance com
pany, in favor of his wife, Mrs Florence f. Maybrick,
now confined In wcklng Jail. The defendants. coun-
sci said had paid on account 81 900 Of the amount
claimed, but had refused to pay the remainder In
support of this refusal he said the defendants sub
mtted that the conviction of Mrs. Maybrick was not
conclusive Continuing, Sir Charles said that on the
contrary, the plaintiffs submitted that the fact that
the sentence ccmmuted was not evidence of in
nocence The r.al question. he urged, was whether or
not Mr. May brick having effected policy in favor Of
his wife, and II being assumed that he died at her
hands, this any answer to the executors claims.
The ex-AttOrney General then proceeded TO cite
thprities in favor of his contentious.
Sir Edward Clarke. the Attorney General after Sir
Charles Russell had concluded his argument contended
appearing for the insurance association that the
ecutors of Mr.. Maybrick's estate were only the
trustees of that property, and that they had nothing
10 d. with the Insurance. which did not belong to Mr.
Naybrick. Continuing. the Attorney General said that
the trustees obtained possession d the Insurance
money they could not part with penny of it with
out the wifes consent. lie added that 1t would be
in the highest degree immoral and contrary % public
policy for the murderer to get the benefit Of a

posed saying that he did not think much of "public
poH.y IL an insurance company can pocket annual
payments without paying the insurance After
