WONDERFUL OPERATIONS.

Chillicothe, Ohio, Dec. 10 An heroic
operation was performed to-day upon
VIM. Conway who, for the past month,
has been completely paralyzed because of
IA disabled neck. An attempt to press
the vertebra back into place had proved
futile so the neck was cut. open. directly
over the fifth ccrvcal vertebra, and it
was found to be fractured and resting
upon the spinal cord The bone was
chiseled away until the SPINAL cord was
exposed and all pressure removed. The
incislon was then closed and Conway
rallied nicely. il is believed that he will
now-recover completely. The case is one
OF the most remarkable in Logical surgi
cal annals.

CELEBRATED CASE.
Liberals and Conservatives the
Real Parties to 1t.

MONTREAL. Sept. 29.-What prom
Uses to be the most celebrated case
that has ever occupied the courts OF
the dominion is being heard in the
court of Queens Bench in this city.
1t is a suit for criminal libel brought
by J. I. Tarte, minister of public WORKS
for the Dominion against William
Alexander Grenier, publisher of the
Lobre parole. The trial is being made
a party one between the Liberals, who
are at present in power, and the Con-
servatives, who are at present in OPP
position. The Conservatives hope to
bring out damaging facts enough
against the Liberals during the trial
to cause the downfall Of the party.
Mr.. Tarte has been for years a politi-
cal organizer. At first he was the
mainstay in that direction of the Con-
servatives and then for some reason,
he published a number of letters which
comprised the Conservatives and
caused the celebrated McGreevy trial
which caused the retirement Of Sir
Hector Langevin, the imprisonment of
several members of parliament and
gave the first blow to the party which
had then been in power for nearly
seventeen years in succession. AS a
reward for his services to the Liberal
party he was made minister of public
works, when Sir Wilfrid Laurier came
into power ana MS enemies say InaL
they would have liked to shake him
but did not dare to because he knew
too much.
The defense, which is conducted by
A. c. Cornellier, who is considered the
sharpest lawyer in Canada; Calixe Lee
boef, the leader of the government
faction, opposed to Mr.. Tarte, and Mr.
Taillon, ex-Conservative premier of
the province of Quebec, has called
ciytv witnesses inoII1dino fha r,roroio,.

every day with great inconvenience to
himself and the affairs of state, all
