CANADIAN CAMPAIGN ENDED.


Election Takes Place Today-The Cana
dian Pacific Owns Macdonald.
VICTORIA, March Autonomous election IL
the all-absorbing topic here. Both parties held
meetings tonight, and feeling runs high. A
large vote viii be polled tomorrow.
MONTREAL, March IA special says: Sensa-
tional disclosures were made last night from
unquestionable sources that the Canadian Pa
cific is taking advantage of the predicament in
which Sir John Macdonald finds himself placed
by the uncertainty of tomorrow's election,
and have found an admirable adjustment
OF the differences existing between the
railroad and the government The
government, it is stated, in return for the as
sistance Of the railway company in the forth
coming elections will abandon 81 600 900 claim
on the North Shore railway, and will continue
permanently the governments guarantee of
Canadian Pacific railway stock, which expires
in 1895, and will settle the claim of the company
for $5,0000 600 in connection with the KamioOps
or "Onderdonk" section of the Canadian Pacific
railway in British Columbia. The result of this
deal, should the government escape defeat
would be that the interest of Sos 900 900 of Cana
dian Pacific railway stock would become per-
manent charge Of the country.

THE VOTE OF THANKS.
Democratic Refusal to Approve &
Resolutions Was Expected.

RESOLUTIONS was Expected
WASHINGTON CITY, March Especial. ]-"The
calling for the yeas and nays by Mr.. Mills upon
the resolution of thanks to Speaker Reed was of
course expected by the Republican members,
and is considered by them simply as logical
sequence of the Democratic position throughout
the whole congress"
Thus spoke Republican congressman after
adjournment today. The Republicans rather
expected that offering of the resolution would
call forth debate, and were loaded to the muzzle
for such an event. The fact was 1t was prudent
for the Democrats not to provoke debate. Their
dissent from the resolution was purely political.
As far as personal treatment between Repub-
licans and Democrats il concerned, there never
was fairer speaker in the chair. Several of
the most influential Democrats refrained from
voting, among them being Hooker of Missis-
sippi, and Culbertson OF Texas. II was COM
mented upon on the floor of the House that it
was seemingly unbecoming Of Roswell p.
Flower, who had obtained many concessions
from Reed, to vote against the resolution The
Republicans appear to be perfectly satisfied
with the situation tonight
