THE CANADIAN parliament met on
Thursday for perhaps the most important
session it has held in years. 1t is the first
actual business session since the over
throw of the MERCER ministry. One OF
the first acts will probably be step look
ing to Cancellation with the commercial
interests of the United States. They Will
probably repeal the very hasty border
tariff legislation which aroused such a
storm OF indignation throughout the
United States. That they will add power
to the Canadian Pacific corporation in
view of retaliatory legislation by the
United States goes almost without saying.
Another project which they will be called
upon to support will be the proposed
canal from Lake Superior through Cana
dian territory to the st. Lawrence river.
In fact this project has the ardent sup
port of the Canadian cabinet and will take
on the shape of pet government meas
ure. The annexationists in the Dominion
parliament are few in number.

An INTERESTING case is on trial in In
dianapolis, involving the validity OF SEN
ator McDoNALD's viii. It is charged
that the will offered for probate, and
which greatly favored the Senator's wife,
to the detriment OF his children by a
former wife, is forgery, and the infer
ence is drawn strong that the crime was
procured by Mrs. MCDONALD. Several
witnesses have testified that the sigma
lures to the will are not genuine. Mrs.
MCDONALD is in attendance at the trial in
person. Although 80 years old she re-
tains distinct traces OF the remarkable
beauty for which she was noted in her
younger days, and when she was rival
of Mrs. HENDRICKS for the leadership OF
Indiana society.

The Territories.

OF the three territories that are likely
to De put into the proposed omnibus bill
for statehood, one only is probably Re-
publican, and it is stated that the Repub-
lican Senator'S will insist upon it going in
with the other two, Utah and New Mex
leo, which are known to be Democratic.
They declare that none of the territories
will ever advance or become improved as
they ought to do until they become mem
bers OF the union. They hold, too. that
their improvement will enhance the con-
dition OF the other new western states,
which is no doubt correct.
1t is amusing to note Senators objecting
to the admission of New Mexico on the
ground OF illiteracy and at the same time
advocating the Mobilization of Oklahoma,
to which is to be added the Indian Nation,
the two being populated chiefly by ne
groes, Indians and half-breeds.
