a little book of these endorsements has

From these endorsements, copied from

London March, 14th-lti is announced that
tie bruce company will liquidate, there is q
deficit of three hundred pounds.
In the House of Commons yesterday Mr..
Wilson said he was willing that the third
clause of the bill requiring local authorities
to furnish work or maintain the unemployed
should be amended. Mr.. Macdonald said
the Labourites insisted upon the original
clause, which will cost less than a Dread
nought, and be more useful to the nation.
Mr.. Burns objected to exalting fustian and
corduroy above the frockcoat and top hat.
The Government, he said, had done all that
was reasonable to expect and more than
other countries. Trades unionism, he de-
clared, will not survive its passage two
years, ard he urged its rejection. Mr.. As
unith said the bill involved the ultimate
control of the entire machinery Of protect
ion, which will vastly aggravate unemploy-
ment. Mr.. Long announced that the oppo-
sition would support Mr.. Maddison's amend
ment, hoping the government would con-
slider the recommendations of the Poor law
Commission so far as they regarded anem-
plovment, and on a division this was Garfield
by 265 votes against Il6.
The rejection of the bill is attributed
partly to Lord Rosebery's speech and partly
to the determination OF the Cabinet to risk
a breach with the Socialists, who; during
the debate declared that all they wauted
was money, which they proposed 70 extract

by a Barbados factory, but the factory in
question does not wish it this year. Ac-
cordino to the market reports the price in
England is good lover &c per tom but we
are told that the article is exposed to several
drawbacks in the shipping and selling, 50
that there is little inclination t use this way
of disposinS of it. Another way, which we
believe is being adopted by the Longford
factory, is to grind the seed and use as
much of it as is desirable as stock feed put
ting the rest into the soil for fertilising
future crops. Our cotton industry is still in
its infancy and we may reasonably expect
that many improvements will be made as
we go along.
We find that we were in error in speak
ing of the service to be held tomorrow at
the Roman Catholic Church, at which the
new organ is to be played for the first time,
as an ea'}y morning service. 1t will be held
at min O'Clock.
There will also be an organ recital in the
church at 3 o'clock on Sunday afternoon, as
will be seen from the notice below.
The organ has, of course, been tried, and
we are indebted to the courtesy Of the Rev.
Father De Stoop for an opportunity to see
and hear 1t. 1t is a fine instrument, sub
stantially built Of mahogany with a view to
resisting the attacks of insects and weather
changes, and is in every respect first class.
The builders are English having their esta-
blishment IN Leeds. Father De Stoop tells us
that this fine instrument has been presented
to him by his rarishioiiers on the occasion of
the Silver Jubilee of his admission to the
Priesthood, Which will be tomorrow. Hence
the Inauguration of the organ will take place
as above stated.
We take the liberty to join our congratu-
lations with those of the Rev. Fathers many
friends on so happy an occasion for both
pastor and congregation.

The large number of bales of cotton which
we see passing through our streets to the
wharf in these days is a very pleasant sight
The bales are from the ginneries at Constr
tuition Hill and at Longford, and give
freight to the schooners Vi&ia9 and Iag'
Eant. which take them to ST. Thomas fol
transhipment to the steamers that are tt
carry them to England.
It.appears that after the 1st of April the
new law concerning duty on cotton comes
into force, SO that there is u special incentive
to push on, besides the ordinary motives tol
keeping the work well forward.

Talking About Cutotfs.

The regular spring opening in Union
Pacific excitement occurred last week
when Field Engineer Wanzer got off
the train at S~cottsbluff and went over
into Mitchell valley for reasons best
known TO himself, says the Scottsbluff
(Neb.) Star. Also q camping outfit
was shipped in on Monday of this
week, for similar reasons. What will
happen next nobody knows, but these
preliminaries would seem to indicate
that Union Pacific surveyors or grad
ers or somebody in the service of Mr..
Hartman will have something to do
in the North Platte valley this summer.
We are in a receptive attitude. Mr..
Wanzer talked without reserve about
the engineering features oil the pro-
posed line through me valley, saying
that the only difficulty of magnitude
would be some two miles of tunnel
through the mountains in order to
meet the present main line in tn
neighborhood of Medicine Bow. Ma
turally he had nothing to say as to
what would be done, hut there is en-
ceuragement in the fact that the Har-
rlman line still has its eye on the
| North Platte valley.

pulp committee Reports.

Washington, D. c., May 28.-The
special committee of six members OF
THE house appointed upon complaint
OF the American Newspaper Publish,
ers' association to investigate the
wood pulp and print paper situation
with relation to the tariff, and with
regard to the alleged conspiracy in
restraint of trade, today submitted
majority and minority reports.
Would Investigate Further.
Majority report, signed by Mann of
Illinois, Miller of Kansas, Stafford of
Wisconsin and Bannon of Ohio, rec
ommends that no legislation affecting
wood pulp and print paper be enacted
until the committee has further inves-
tigated and reported.
Conspiracy Not Shown.
1t says that while the testimony
tends to show that a combination ex-
lists, the evidence is not sufficient to
establish this fact.
Minority Reports.
The minority report was signed by
Simms of Tennessee and Ryan of New
York. and recommends the passage of
the Stevens bill to place wood pulp
and print paper on the free list.

Small Loss BY Burning Mail Car.

The loss sustained through the
burning OF a mail car on the Union
Pacific, between Grand Island and
Maxwell, on May 20, turns out TO have
been relatively insignificant, after all.
The car was loaded with newspapers
and printed matter and a considerable
quantity of ~postofice supplies for Pa
cific coast points. These embraced
STAMPED envelopes and postal cards,
There was a total of sixty-three cases
of these supplies on the car, of which
seven were saved. Fiftytsix sacks
of mail were also saved. AS the pack.
ages of mail supplies we're simply
sent on requisition, the only loss sus
tanned by the government will be for

DISEASE AMONG SHEEP.
Strange Maiady Among Floeks of Cen.
trail Wyoming.

Cheyenne, Wyo., May 2S.-The state
board of sheep commissioners has re-
ceived advices of another outbreak
of a strange disease among the sheep
of central Wyoming. Last year over
10000 sheep died of this unknown
disease before it run its course. Elk
perts of the department of agriculture
were called in. but they arrived too
late to make the desired study of the
disease.
The disease appeared a few days
ago among the sheep of o. Josendal of
Alcova, southwest of Casper, where
Inspector Hines of the state board
found a large number of animals af-
fected. Some were dead and others
have since died. The animals first
show loss of desire to eat, and walk
about with the nos close to the
ground, this being followed by blind
staggers and death.
