A movement is well under way look.

ways of Canada to vessels of the United
States. The Dominion of Canada has
for years been building up a system of
canals to the heart of the country, and
it is estimated that the work has cost
not less than $50. 600, 900, really more
than the government a afford. The
tolls and revenue from power privileges
have been a bagatelle and Canadian
commerce is constantly decreasing. It
is estimated that it will cost not far
from 81, 900, 600 a year for maintenance,
repairs, incidentals, etc, and there are
no revenues to meet these expenses.

FORGAVE THEM BOTH
MRS. DELOss MATTHEwS's TENDER
TOWARDS THE ERRING WOMAN.
The BiGamist Sentenced to the Work.
house and His Paramour Sent TO
a Place of Refuge.

DelosS Matthews, the bigamist, will have
ample time TO repent of his hasty flight
from New York with his neighbor's wife,
Mrs. Fannie Denison. The guilty couple was
brought into Police Court yesterday morn
ing, but waived examination, and was sent
at once to the Criminal Court. Acting Judge
Span sentenced Matthews to six months
in the workhouse and fined him $500. He
pleaded guilty to the charge of bigamy and
attempted no defense Mrs. Denison also
pleaded guilty, and was released on her per-
sonal bond Emma Matthews, the lawful
wife of the bigamist was also In court. She
arrived from Wfllets Point, n. Y, Monday
night, and walked into the Criminal Court
yesterday morning with the police matron.
1t was curious meeting, that of the law
full wife with the woman who had usurped
her place, but there was no scene on the
part of the first. She sat stolidly through
the court proceedings, while the Denison
woman cried bitterly. At the close of the
ordeal Mrs. Matthews took the hand of the
other and told her that she forgave her
all.
She had no word with her husband until
afternoon, when she called at the Jail and
was admitted TO his cell. Apparently Mat
thews was penitent, for he received his
wife tenderly. He gave her some money,
and she left the Jail with the semblance
of smile on her pitiful face. Later she
was searching for Judge Cox, presumably
with the intention of having her guilty hus-
bands sentence hghtened If the court would
consent. Mrs. Denison seemed broken-heart-
ed. She said that she believed Matthew's
marriage vows would be Cancelled after
leaving New York. Shortly after noon, yes
terday, she was taken in charge by Police
Matron Buchanan, and the two walked to
the Rescue Home on South street. The
erring woman remained, and it is under
stood that she will be an inmate of the
home, with her child, until other provisions
can be made for her. Mrs. Matthews is ten
years older than her husband, and looks
careworn and broken in spirit She ssays
that Mrs. Denison nursed her through an
illness some months ago, and during this
period became infatuated with her husband.
She will leave at once for Canada, where
the parents of Matthews reside. She stated
last night that she intended raising $500,
and would pay her husbands fine with the
money.
