Dominion Notes.

1t is proposed to construct a ship
canal from Lake st. Clair TO Lake Erie,
a distance of IL miles. Such a canal
would mean a saving of 100 miles, and
would enable vessels to avoid the
Detroit river.
The Dominion trade congress, in ses-
sion at Toronto, decided to petition the
dominion government TO submit to the
people of Canada for decision by
popular vote the questions of the reten'
ton of the colonial status, imperial

Regions Very Successful.

Regions Very Successful.
Dispatches from st. Johns, N. f.,
says: The Peary expedition, which
left this port in the summer of 1891 to
make explorations in North Greenland,
has returned here on the Kite. One

met with no serious mishap. The party
wintered at Radcliffe and on May Is
Lieut.. Peary, accompanied by three
EslSimos and 10 dogs, started on the
long journey TO the north. They con-
tinued as far as the eighty-second par
allel, when an impenetrable mountain
chain compelled the party to defect
their course to the southeast. An open
was finally discovered and July the
party found itself at the head of
great bay in latitude S1.37, longitude
"a. This was named Independence bay
in honor of the day of its discov-
cry, and the glacier flowing north
into it was named Academy Glacier.
The land in this region was almost en-
tirely free from snow. 1t was covered
with glacial debris and stones of all
sizes. Flowers grew plentifully and
several varieties of insects were found.
Musk oxen, foxes, hares and several
species of birds were also abundant.
July the return journey was begun
and 81 days later, after undergoing I'M
speakable hardships, the almost worn
out party returned to Mccormick bay,
after having traversed a distance of
| 1900 miles. In the meantime the Kite
had arrived, and two days later she
steamed back to Radcliffe. Eight days
were spent at Radcliffe. Many meteo-
Biological observations were made and
much valuable chronological material
was secured, in addition to the geo
graphical and geological discoveries.

partment has received the following

pespondent Suicide at Lakeview.

Edwin G. Davis, a groceryman of
Lakeview shot himself fatally. He
had been failing in health for the past
two years and this, coupled with finan-
cial troubles, brought on dependency.
The deed was committed in the wood
shed in the rear of his store, a 32-cali-
Der revolver being the weapon and the
aid of mirror called in to make a
sure shot. His first shot entered the
ear and glanced backward, only MAX
ing flesh wound. He must have soon
recovered from the shock and made
another trial, which was successful,
the bullet entering the right temple,
causing instant death.

Indiana Gerrymander Unconstitutional.

Judge Bundy, at Newcastle, Ind, has
rendered his decision in the gerry
mander case. The suit was brought to
have the apportionment law of 1891,
referring to legislative districts, de.
clared unconstitutional. The reasons
alleged were its unfairness and
prejudices. The suit was brought by
Republicans. The decision is in favor
of the petitioners, declaring the law
unconstitutional and ordering the
county clerk to post election notices
under the law of 1879. The case will
be appealed to the supreme court.

Encnmnment Notes.
Cholera Decreasing in Europe.

Slowly the grim hand of cholera is
lifting from the continent. Deaths
from the plague last week did not num-
Der more than $4,000, if the returns are
approximately true. Hamburg's total
death roll mounted to about 1000, and
the plauge has renewed in some de-
gree its intensity in that stricken city.
In Russia, however, there was marked
improvement and the disease is rapidly
disappearing in many places in western
Europe, where it threatened to become
a great scourge. Paris continues to be
danger point, although the daily
reports sent out by the authorities
indicate that the pestilence is subsid'
ing. The authorities of Paris have
been guilty of criminal folly in con-
cealing the facts about cholera in that
capital. Ample proof of the charge, in
addition to the evidence then at hand
is now available.

The total assessed value of the property
of the territory is 1898, 1872. The
cattle-raising business of the territory
has not been prosperous, but there has
been a steady advance in the agricul-
tural and Embarrassing districts. Nearly
