Sir Guilford declared that the situ-
alton in Great Britain was greatly
changed since Nov. %, the date of the
first meeting of the conference, and
suggested that the conference adjourn
for q few weeks to enable the British
government to reconsider the ques-
tion. He gave as the reason for
change in the situation In Great

agriculturalists few days ago in
London and petitions forwarded to
the government by various chambers

NEW YORK, Dec. 13.-The Tribune
says: 1t now seems certain that the
a me, lean arch bishopship and bishops
Of the Ran Catholic church do not
want Manager SatOlli to remain in
this country. The probabilities are
that with the exception of Archbishop
Ireland they have appealed to Rome
for his removal or at least, have re-
quested that he be deprived of his ex-
traOrdidary powers. The bishops
say that if the authority is to be any
thing more than a shadow they
must be allowed to rule
their own dioceses such close super.
vision as they would be subject to,
should Manager Satolli return his full
powers. 1t Is safe to say, however,
that most of the priests hailed with
delight the appointment of Manager
Satolli because they considered him
to be broad-minded and learned
ecclesiastic, fully competent to hear
and decide cases and who would
make every one recognize that the
priests had rights as we'll as bishops,
and that the church was willing to
recognize and emphasize that fact.

ono year (l86l) taken cut $1,000
900 in gold dust from certain
creeks in what is called the Cariboo
district, and one can imagine (if
one does not remember) what
fabulous tales were based upon
this fact. The second stampede
was of persons from all over the
world, but chiefly from England,
Canada, Australia and New Zea-
land. After that there were new
finds" almost every year, and the
miners worked gradually to the
northward until, about 1874, they
had travelled through the province,
in at ono end and out at the other,
and were working the tributaries
of the Yukon river in the north,
beyond the 10Th parallel. Mr.
Dawson estimates that the total
yield Of gold between 1858 and 1888
was $54, 108,804; the average
OF miners employed each
year was 2,775, and the average
earnings per man per year were
1922.
