Expulsion of Jesuits from Canada De-
 manded and Bloodshed Tinted at.
 TORONTO, Ont, March 16.-The exec utive committee of the Canadian Pro- tection association has issued a mani festo, in which q solemn protest is en- tered against dominion interference in the Manitoba school question. It accuses the Catholic hierarchy which, it says, is controlled by Jesuits, of stirring up feelings of discon- tent in the minds of French half who, if let alone, would have accepted the school act without question. There is also very slight yelled threat that if the dominion government accedes to the hierarchy's demands, civil war will be engendered.
 Continuing the manifesto says: "To prevent q recurrence of attempts to destroy the public school system of the various provinces and to restore har- mony among all our people ire spective of creed, we ask all our members and every patriotic citizen to unite in the just demand that Jesuits be forthwith expelled from this country"
 The manifesto is being sent broad cast over the country by mail and wire.

MOUNT PLEASANT, Pa., March 16. -- Not since the halcyon days of the old syndicate has the Connellsville coke region received such pleasant news as came to the almost 10000 employees of the Prick and Southwest companies at noon to-day, when notices were posted at all the works stating that an ad. vance in wages, averaging about IL per cent, would go into effect April 1. The rate for mining 100 bushels goes from IS to 90 cents, drawing from 43 to 50 cents, and so on down through the different kinds of labor. The yard laborer is the only person who gets no advance.

PURGING INDIAN ROLLS.

secretary smith Renders a Decision Ro-

 WASHINGTON, March 16.-Secretary Hoke Smith has rendered decision in the matter of application of the Osage Indians to have their rolls purged of certain names, principally white men, claiming to have Indian blood in their veins, who the Indians say have no right to any of the money or property granted to or appropriated for the ben- eft of said Indians by the United States.
 Secretary Smith holds that while the department has right to pass upon this question of tribal relations, he will take no action till the charges against those who are sought to be ex- pelled from the tribe are made more definite. He requires that the Osages shall give the names of each person whom it is desired to expel from the tribe, and the reason in each individ- ual case for the expulsion, so that the matter may be taken up as in court of justice and that no injustice may be done

Two Teams.

Here is a really funny story which will amuse all who are interested in football. On the occasion of great match in one of the English counties, between number of military officers and team of barristers, the former had prepared splendid lunch for the visitors before the game. Both teams did thorough justice to the lunch, and the legal gentlemen going in strong for the indigestibles, the officers an- ticipated an easy victory. On looking towards the football ground, however, after lunch, the officers espied re- markedly fresh-looking lot of giants kicking the ball about, and, in amaze ment, asked their guests who the strangers were. ''Oh," replied one of them, just finishing his last mouthful, "that's our playing team; we are only the lunching team, you know."-Har- per's Young People.

THE BUSINESS WORLD.
A Continued Quiet Demand and a Small
 Volume of Business.

A Continued Quiet Demand and Small
 Volume of Business.
 NEW YORK, March 16.-Bradstreet's says: There are fewer new and favor able trade features this week than un- favorable ones, but in most instances they outweigh the latter, which point to continuance of small volume of business and quiet demand. In addi- tion to increased competition here by Australian wools, demand for the raw staple has fallen off and word is received that American dress goods manufacturers are using consid- erable Australian mixed with the American staple. The dry goods trade continues depressed, production being in excess of demand, cotton goods be- ing moved generally only at conces- sions.
 On the other hand prices present the longest list of increases within week for many months. Among the prom inent are the advances in Bessemer pig iron 10 to l5 cents; 3-16 cents on cotton; wheat, 29s cents; Indian corn, 14 cent; oats, T cent; pork Sl.25 per barrel; lard, 30 cents and sugar 1-I6 of cent. Higher quotations are also reported for leather and hides, with demand more active, and the falling off in the stocks of petroleum is made a basis for higher prices for that staple.
 The south gains are shown in sales of leaf tobacco and in demand for naval stores. Among eastern industries, makers of shoes report the recent ad- vance fully maintained.
 Quotations are unchanged for wool, tin, iron ore, coke, lumber, coffee and live cattle, while concessions in prices are rumored to have been made on coal contracts and are apparent for print cloths, steel billets, copper and eggs.
 The export of wheat (hour included as wheat), from both coasts this week, amount to 2,791, ,OOO bushels, compared with S3,272, 1000 bushels last week, B. 25s, 900 bushels in the week year ago, and with 3,sls,OOO bushels in the week three years ago.

He Believes Third Party Will Operate as
 Hindrance to White Metal.
 WASHINGTON, March 16.-Representa- tive Dockery and wife left for home last evening. Mir. Dockery thinks the tariff question will not be much of an issue in Missouri for some time to come, as there seems to be a willingness to give the new tariff laws a fair trial. The silver party he does not expect to see gain many recruits in Missouri. "The state is, of course, decidedly in favor of silver," he said, but I think the people of Missouri real ize that any attempt to organize a third party in the interest of silver will operate as hindrance. There is a growing sentiment in both the old parties favorable to an enlarged use of silver in our monetary system and I think this will be expressed strongly in both national platforms next year.

The apricot crop has been almost totally destroyed, probably not fifty tons re- maining. Early cherries, that would have been on the market in two weeks, are all gone. The late varieties are thought to be all right, as they are only just blossoming. The almond crop, which was advanced about the same as the apricot, is ruined. It is impossible to determine at the present just what damage has been done to peaches, as they are just going out of the bloom and do not show as plainly. This is also true of plums and prunes.
