BERLIER POLAR EXPEDITION
Expected to Start for the North on
the First Of March.

QUEBEC, Nov. 11.-Captain Ber-
lier Of this city, who is organizing an
expedition to the North Pole, expects
to start March 1st, in the steamer
Windward, which was used by the
Jackson -Harmsworth expedition, from
a point, the name of which he with
holds, but which is on the northern
coast of Siberia.
The party will consist of eighteen
men. He intends to travel at the rate
of sixty miles day, making the jour-
ney to the pole in 120 days. His mode
of travelling will be by dogs and rein
deer, especially the latter on account
of their meat as well as their service.
He intends to send the Windward back
from Siberia after disembarking his
outfit, as he expects to arrive back at
Spitzbergen, where he will send sig
nails previously arranged to take him
off. His party will be provisioned for
two and a half years. All applicants
must be Canadians and British sub
jects. The trip he expects will cost
not over 100000, which he proposes all
local Governments throughout Canada
and Newfoundland, as we'll as the Fed
eral Government, will vote, as the ex-
pedition is entirely Canadian affair.

Insane Ficklin is the SON of the late
Orlando B. Ficklin, who married a sis
ter of Alfred c. Colquitt, late Govern or
of Georgia Ficklin, the elder, was an
intimate friend of both Lincoln and
Douglass.
Alfred acted as broker for some rich
people, lending their money and paying
the interest when it became due. After
a long time it was learned by the mer-
est accident, it is said, that notes for
several thousand dollars were forgerles.
The Grand Jury found thirteen indict-
ments against Ficklin, and the cases
came to trial this week.
The first charge was proved clearly,
b,,t bv a blunder of the tSate's Attor-
ney. made in the copying of the indict-
ment in which a note was erroneouSly
described, Judge Henry Van Sellar Or
dered the jury to render verdict or
acauittal, which was done.
The next case was then called. ana
while the trial was in progress the
States Attorney made the astounding
statement that he had been robbed in
open court of all the forged notes. There
was a dramatic scene, but no one was
able to find the notes, and the case on
trial went the way of the first. Then,
with eleven indictments left, the States
Attorney obtained a continuance till the
January term of the Circuit Court, in
order to try to find the notes, and Flick
lin was tried for insanity, with the re-
suit already noted.

CANADA AND THE TARIFF.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-THE off,
cials of the Agricultural Department are
somewhat concerned over the visit OF
Premier Laurier of Canada, in view OF
the concessions which it is considered
probable he will ask under the reciproc-
ity provision of the tariff law. They are
apprehensive that the Premier will di-
rect his attention particularly to secur-
ing a reduction of the tariff rates on
Canada's agricultural products shipped
to this country. and are inclined to an
tagonize any concessions upon these
lines.
1t is expected that a concession will be
asked specially on barley, the De-
partment officers holding that this ccun-
try is capable of producing its own bar
ley, and believe the farmers do not want
a reduced tariff on this article.
The opinion expressed at the Depart
ment is that it will be well for the
United States to confine it's reciprocity
relations with Canada largely to flsh
and coal, on which Canadian products
it is believed there might be reduc-
ton without especial injury to American
interests.
