DOMINION DEFENSES.
Plans for the Pacific Coast Works
Ready

OTTAWA, Oct. 12.-Maj. Gen. Herbert,
commander of the Canadian militia, says
he is fairly satisfied with the result of
his recent tour of inspection in the
West. Plans for the proposed defeuses
on the Pacific coast are ready, and if the
details of the arrangements between the
imperial and federal authorities under
which the Notifications are to be built
were completed, the work could be com.
menced tomorrow. The imperial gov
eminent has lntimated what share of
the expense it will bear, and it remains
only for the Dominion government to do
likewise. Sir John McDonald's death
and other circumstances have contrib
uted to the delay experienced in setting
the affair.

SUPPORTED THE FAMILY.
The Court Gives Judgment on a
Very Unusual Claim.

Philadelphia Times.
Judgment was yesterday entered in
Common Pleas Court No. g. for want of
an affidavit of defense, in the suit begun
by Margaret Mcintyre against Thomas
Girling, which was brought to recover
small amount under very unusual
claim. The plaintiff says in her state
ment of claim: Thomas Girling is the
husband of Annie Girling, having been
married i'll 1870. In January, 1888.
Giring deserted his wife and
seven children, the youngest three
months old and the oldest fourteen
years of age. Shortly after this he en-
tered into an agreement with Annie
Glrling. recognizing his obligations by
STIMULATING to pay her 5000 per week.
The defendant complied with this obi
CATION up to June %, 1888. when he re-
fused to supply money. On July 9 of
the same year the plaintiff loaned, for
the use of the defendants wife, various
sums of money, and from that date on
until Oct. Is, when under an order of

railroad wreclzers, although they may
have pursued less conservative policy
than would have been best for the prop
erty. But it seems to be generally be-
lieyed that both Jones and Sinclair found
themselves in a very tight box financially
at the time of the Maverick bank failure.
In order to pursue their New Hampshire
campaign they needed very large share
of the Boston & Maine stock, and they
did not have the money to pay cash for
all they bought. So they put up stock
they had to raise money to buy more.
Thus the Maverick bank held much stock
as collateral for money advanced to
them When the bank got into trouble
Messrs. Jones and Sinclair had to repay
their loans and take up their stock
This distressed them, and they found if
necessary to put their stock on the mar
ket.
This much seems to be generally ac-
cepted true. But two theories prevail
as to the conditions under which the
stock was bought. On the one side it
is believed that McLeod's brokers, who
had been waiting for the opportunity,
snapped up the stock and thereby cap

line? Or was Mr.. Jones set aside by MI.
Mcleod, who is credited with being a
man who watches quietly, but with
plenty of ammunition, for the chances
that may happen along? There are two
interesting theories quietly advanced in
business circles in Portland-and Port
land business circles are not wholly in
the dark as to what is going on with the
prosperity of the great New England
railroad. In the first place hints have
crept into print from time to time that
MI. Jones was forced to abandon the
Boston& Maine by pressure of financial cir
cumstances. Mr.. Jones, with Mr.. Sinclair,
his son in law, became very prominent
in New England railroad affairs about
six years ago. They bought extensive
ly of Boston & Maine stock, and practi-
cally controlled it. They then launched
out into bold plan of aggrandisement.
The Worcester and Nashua line was ac-
quired. under conditions by the way
that gave rise to charges that Messrs.
Jones and Sinclair made a large sum of
money from it's stock. Then the famous
campaign was begun against the Concord
railroad. Connecting Concord, Manches-

Leod's hackers take the stock and put
their man into control of the company?
For long time, even before the Maverick
National Bank disclosure of "a year ago
the leading bankers of this
city and Boston have locked askance
at Boston d Maine stock. They
have taken it in loans only with
margins strangely disproportionate to
the market price of the stock. The in
stance reported from Boston of the brok-
er who has been borrowing money on
Boston & Maine stock at its par value
while the stock has been selling at 1873 is
no news to the bankers of New York.
These gentlemen have known for long
time that the Boston & Maine has been
wretchedly mismanaged to satisfy the
ends of gang of bold spectators. The
road has been skinned year after year to
pay the high dividends that were neces-
sary to keep up the prices. The rolling
stock is in bad condition, the equip
ment is worn out. Every cent possible
has been diverted to the swelling of earn
ings and the payment of dividends.
Within few days the company has
placed 50, 100000 of new per cent bonds

Sun declares that in casting about for
succor they found Mcleod, who, with q
s'swelled head which had been still fur
ther swelled by newspaper fame, was
