A CRISIS IN MANITOBA.
Province will Probably Decline to
Obey the Separate School
Order.

Winnipeg, Man, May 9.-"What will
the answer be?' The one absorbing
question in Manitoba is one day nearer
its answer. The Legislature reassembled
today after recess of three weeks, and
Premier Greenway is now called upon to
give his answer to the now celebrated
remedial order of the Dominion govern
ment on separate schools
n crisis in the political affairs of the
province is imminent, for unless all
signs are at fault. the government will
send a laundering No back to OF
tawa, and will follow up this defiance
by dissolving the Legislature and going
to the country for the verdict of the peo-
pie upon its position.
The remedial order forcing separate
schools i'll the province, which was
listers on March q, 1895, is not clearly
understood outside of the dominion. In
brief, the order sets forth that the
Roman Catholics of Manitoba have a
right to build, maintain and equip man
age, conduct and support Roman Catho-
he separate schools in manner provided
by the statute which was repealed by
the province in 1890 The Roman Cath
olics have also a right to share proper
tonately in any grant made out of the
public funds for the purpose Of educa-
ton. The Roman Catholics who con-
tribute TO separate schools are exempted
from the payment of any public moneys
to other schools.
Upon receipt of the order, Premier
Greenway decided to play waiting game
by adjOurning the Legislature, in the
expectation that the Dominion Parliament
would again deal with the question. Par
lament convened on April Is, but so far
has taken no action in the matter. The
next move of the premier and his advisers
is being awaited with intense interest.
1t is understood this afternoon that
Premier Greenway has conceived of some
plan whereby action can be delayed un-
til the government at Ottawa takes the
