Chapleau You can never prove that I ever wrote such a letter, or that I sanctioned the agreement i oncerning the transactions with the Government. After some further questioning witness lid: "Now you're bringing me down to time: it does seem as if I did get a letter from Mr.

Chapleau. but it was not in refer ence to the contract. If you have it there, show it to me." Small lr liti. His company had only had two transactions with the Government. The first one was on June Otli.

IHf'i. long previous to his agree ment with Mr. licrthiaunie, when he sold paper to the Department of Agriculture to the value of Jfi.i'eU. That paper only cost them and tin made nearly 35 per cent, profit. He thought that if they could make such profits as that he would be de lighted to share with someone, flu' second transaction was in Ortob 1889.

It amounted to S1.074, and the profit was only 1.17. Ho oftm-ed to give Mr. lierthiauine half of this sum, but he refused because it was too small and did not amount to anything. Four mouths later the contract was broken. Mr.

Lister then asked witness to make a search for the letter, when Mr. Young burst out 1 know pretty rvell what you are driving at. 1 am an American citizen and will not be bullied. My bookkeeper is down with typhoid fever I don't know what you did with her here aud I am wanted back it my business. 1 tell you you can prove nothing by me.

Mr. Chapleau never mentioned anything abcut the paper contracts he merely said he endorsed the notes. 1 know what you are trying to prove, but you an do it by me." Mr. Lister I can prove by two witnesses that within five weeks he stated that he received a letter from Mr. Chapleau.

Mr. Young oil cant prove any such thing. Alter some further discussion, witness said he was an American citizen and would not obey a summons to return, continuin, When I came here it was to say what was straight and right. You cannot prove that Mr. Chapleau has done anything wrong this connection by me.

There was abso lutely nothing o( what you speak of. Hon. Mr Chapleau here asked that Mr. Brown, Mr. Young's attorney, should be examined to corroborate his testimony, but Mr.

Lister protested against any iuteifer- ence, and called tor a vote oi tne com ruittce. Hon. Mr. Chapleau Lister lias charged that in his examination in court Mr. Young made a statement that there was such a letter.

I a-k in fairness to Mr. Younjr and myself that Mr. Brown be ex amined. Friend Mr. A warm discussion followed, at the con clusion of which witness said (warmly) Why should I come here to defend Mr Chafleau Mr.

Chaolenu is every bit as much my enemy as Mr. Berthiaume. lie broke his contract with me. Do you suppose if 1 could produce sui a letter I would not do so. When they are my enemies, would I not get even if I could In answer to Mr.

Foster, witness said that he stated positively that Mr. Chapleau never wrote" and that he never received such a letter" and never had any conversation with Mr. Chapleau about the agreement. It was not possible that he could make a mistake. If he had such a letter he would jump it out" at oi.ee.

He gave all the information and papers he had to his lawyers jus a man ot business. The discussion continued without result until 1.30, when the committee adjourned. The rrintiug Bureau investigation will be continued on Tuesday. Fast running at the O- A- A. C-sports on trie Metropolitan Athletic Crounds to-morrow, Saturday, afternoon.

MARKET IMPROVEMENTS. The civic Market Committee held a meeting yesterday afternoon, at which Aid. Aid. O'Leary (chairman), Roger, Johnstone, Devlin, Campbell and Thackiay, and Inspector 0'Kecte, were present. Clerk Norman Lett stated there was about 125 yet to the credit of the committee.

On motion it was agreed to erect awnings at the western comer of Wellington Ward Market and at the southeast corner of the old By Ward Market; also to have the sanitary condition of the former market attended to. Aid. Campbell drew the attention of the Inspector to the fact that butchers in Wellington Ward Market were using sawdust in which to pack ice, which is contrary to the instructions of the committee. After giving the chairman authority to call for tenders for the construction of the awnings, which are not to cost more than 100 each, the committee adjourned. WILL NOT BE UNDERSOLD.

Nowadays it takes a pretty good expert to tell exactly what he is purchasing in the line of timepieces, silverware orjewelleiy. There is probably no business cxistaut hich makes more dupes, causes more deceptions and gives better returns to the bogus dealer. In the large centres rich harvests are daily reaped by the jewellery sharks at the expense of people who oftentimes ignore their own city dealers under the impression they can secure superior value elsewhere This is a false policy, as the many who have been bitten can testify. Tremblay a firm of practical jewellers of many years experience, are established on Kideau street to stay, and being able to perform their ow repairs and execute anything in their line themselves, thus saving the salary of a competent jeweller and watchmaker, they can thus give the benefit of the lessened expense to their patrons, with the assurance that the work will be neatly and satisfactorily done. The firm have also been able to secure a stock of jewellery, ear-rings, watches, silverware, chains and lockets, at a low figure, and in a few days will be in a position to give their patrons a grand opportunity of choosing from a most varied stock, bought by a thoroughly practical man.

The public can rely upon receiving the best value at prices which even the closest competition cannot rival. The r.leetric Railway. Mayor Birkett yesterday received a com- munication from the Electric Railway Com pany, in which the company stated that should the city consent to the laying of double track on the eastern portion of Kideau street they would agree to replace the roadbed in as good a condition as it now is in and leave everything satisfactory to the City Engineer, provided the city supplied them with the steam roller for the necessary work. The letter was handed to Aid. Durocher, chairman of the Street Railway Committee, aud notices were issued calling a meeting for this afternoon at 3 o'clock.

Struggle ith anroetiipiiK. A letter received yesterday by the Hon. Senator Mclnues, of British Columbia, from his son. a promising young law student of Victoria, details the terrible experience of a young lawyer of the city, with a devilfish. Mr.

Mclnnes writes that on Friday the 28th his friend was bathing at a place called Ross' Bay, quite near the city, when he was attacked by an octupus, which fastened several of its loathsome tentacles about his naked body, while with the others the monster sought to clutch the bottom and thus drag his human prey into the depths of the bay. The swimmer struggled with all the desperation of a man threatened with a fearful death, and as the bottom was of smooth sand, offering no projection upon which the devil-fish could fasten, he gradually dragged the monster into shallow water. Filially the shore was reached, and then on firm footing he wrenched 'himself clear of the loathsome creature's embrace. It required no little strength and nerve to do this for so tenacious was the monster's grip that in tearing himself loose the swimmer's arms and back were left raw, the skin and portions of the flesh being torn completely away. Senator Mclnnes says that devil-fish are quite numerous along the Pacific coast, many of them being of immense size, and proportionately aggressive.

But the largest which he ever saw was in the aquarium in Milan, "the appearance of which," he added, "filled me with a sort of terror I could not shake'bff for days." Go to G. S.

Sin, For the last three mouths some thieves have been operating with siugular success and immunity irom interruption on the pai ot the police, on handy Hill. They ive show a marked preference for Daly avenue, where tlieir depredations have been frequent and persistent. These industrious ind enterprising fellow-citizens enter one's yard on various pretexts. Sometimes when seen and questioned, a drink of water is asked or '-rags or bones" are in demand; very often a mythical servant maid is sought. Should the coast be clear, the clothes lines are eased of their bur Jen with marvel finis celerity, and Ihe lines even an; appropriated.

Anything handy and profitable that can be slipped into a capaei- us bag, is pounced upon and carried oft The "enterprising" sneak thief does not confine his raids to the yards and out-houses; neither is the pursuit of his peculiar lling confined to the hours of ordinary labour. In addition to what he can pick up by day, he is on the lookout for the booty that may be secured during the safe and quiet hours of the night. Then fancy hairs, cushions, tlower pots, that may be left on the verandah change ownership. Complaints have been made, again and again, to the police oi this organized and well-sustained system of robbery, but noth ing has been done to check it. Either the members of the force are grossly careless and indifferent in the performance ot their duty, or they are lamentably ignorant of how it should be done.

It is at very long intervals that a policeman is seen on Daly avenue, and the thieves are well aware that the property of the taxpayers is left unpro tected and at their mercy, there should be some redress, or some means devised to end this grievance. Yours, A CtTir.KK Ottawa, Sept. yth, lS'Jl GARDENERS AND FLORISTS. Trantineted in Meeting; Lnt Kveninx. A meeting of the Gardeners' and Florists' Club was held last night, President Sorley the chair.

Aid. Scrim, at the request of Messrs. Sims and J. llickey, gave an account of his trip to Toronto to attend the llorists' convention. He said the aldermen and citizens of To ronto united in tine style to make the affair a success.

He had invited the members to stop off at Ottawa on their return. A num ber went back by boat aud only had an hour in town. Several gentk-mm stopped over, and he did his best to show them over the city. He had supported the appoint ment of Mr. Samuels as chief of the depart ment i horticulture at the World's Fair in Chicago, anil he had since heard that he had been appointed.

lie also reported that at the Ottawa 'Ex hibition plants, fruits, would have to be in on Thursday, and the committee had decided not to postpone the date of receiv ing entries, as requested by some ot the Montreal exhibitors Mr. L. Wolfertou, of the Ontario Fruit Growers" Association, wrote with reference to the sending of an exhibit to the Edin burgh Exhibition regretting that the matter had come up too late, and stating that in future the association would be glad to operate with the Ottawa Club. The Secretary reported that he had written two letters to Mr. Torrance re rates of ship ment, but had not been favoured with a re ply- It was decided to write to Edinburgh and explain what action the club had taken.

A letter from Mr. John Craig, ot the Experimental Farm, acknowledging the letter of thanks from the club for courtesies re ceived on their last visit to the farm, was read and tiled. President Sorley reported that the sub committee had met the Exhibition Committee aud agreed to co-operate with them in decorating the Horticultural Hall. It was decided to meet on Thursday morning next at 8 o'clock and put in a day's work in pre paring for the green decorations. Aid.

Scrim repotted that as to heating he had lent the association the boiler and pipes, and tiie latter were to put these up and operate them. Mr. Sims said a number of the members had met at the grounds and decided to have the benches lowered and the east door closed. Aid. Scrim believed that Canadian enterprise should be encouiaged.

aud moved that the secretary write, to the Canadian HoHTii LLTtHisT and ask the prices for 'j; cotiies a mouth. Mr. Thomas Nicholson exhibited a large specimen of the tobacco plant. After discussion it was generally agreed that it was not profitable to grow it either for smoking or fumigating purposes. Mr.

James Hickey said that he had suffered greatly from men anil boys who stole his fruit. He bad some very fine melons which hi had intended showing at the Exhibition, but on Wednesday night someone visited him and carried off' two dozen melons. They had work enough growing the fiuit without stopping up all night to watch them, and he considered they all paid enough taxes to get police protection. It was decided to authorize the secretary to write to the Chief of Police and ask him for a police patrol on Bank street during the fall months to watch fruit gardens. PERSONAL.

Aid. Malone, of Montreal, father of Mr John Malone, of the Grand Trunk Ticket Office, Ottawa, is lying seriously ill at his home in Montreal. Mr. Malone was tele graphed for on Monday and left for Montreal at once, aud will remain there until a change occurs in his father's condition.

FACTORIES AT HULL, CANADA. ESTABLISHED 1851. A Witness Who Told a Straight Story and Stuck to It, DESPITE LISTER'S BADGERING. Did Stewart Try to Blackmail Lieu tenant-Governor Sehultz Further evidence was taken yesterday on the charges against Lieutenant Governor Sehultz, from the responsibility of which the Opposition are endeavouring to wriggl The Auditor-General testified he had not examined me vouchers uimseii, uuc me lork who had understood they referred to one trip of the boat Keewatin. lhen Lieutenant-Governor Sehultz re sumed his cross-examination of Stewart, the man who started the story ot misappropria tion in the hist instance.

He endeavoured to mitigate his slander against Captain Begiu and the other members of the Mounted Folice escort, whom he charged with drunkenness in his direct evidence. To Mr. 11. J. Macdouald (Winnipeg) who represented Ur.

liowen, tne secretary, he said he as paid by the Governor himself and not by his secretary. His recollection ot the payment was more than hazv. Mr. George Taylor produced an affidavit sworn to by air. u.

forsvth Mccreaoy attorney of mm peg, in which it was stated that a Mr. John Robertson had come to him and ottered that it each was raid to Stewart and his wife he would drop the charge against the Governor, whom he alleged had treated him badly. Witness said he knew Robertson, but he had never authorized him to go to McCreadyand make any such offer. To other questions witness turned answers which disgusted most ot the members of the committee and showed him to be utterly devoid of decency. Tlie Inspector's Evltleuce.

Inspector of the North-West Mounted Police, who was in charge of the police expedition to Grand Rapids, ex plained that they went by the Keewatin because the steamer would not start for eisrht or ten days. Mr. Somerville asked him what kind of liquor there was on the boat, but Hon. Mr. Foster objected that this did not form part the enquiry, whereupon the question was altered to, Did you get on a spree 1 he witness replied most firmly Certainly To Gov.

Sehultz, witness said he remem bered seeing provisions being put on board the boat for a second trip, and was sure the trip was made. He would not trust him self again on any boat with Stewart, and was very sorry he had been put in charge of the boat The accident by which three lives were lost the following year was due bothl to the stress of weather and to her running on an unknown shoal. He had since crossed the lake 15 times and regarded the Keewatin as per fect ly sea wort hy The witness was then discharged, and Mr. Foster wanted the investigation to be declared closed, but Mr. Lister protested that there was a great deal more in the case, and affirmed that he could yet prove the charges, notwithstanding it was evident that Stewart was labouring under a misunderstanding or misapprehension in reference to the trips of the boat.

It was agreed to continue the enquiry to morrow morning. Tlie l'rlntiiiif Hiireau. The Fruiting Bureau investigation was then resumed, the first witness called being Mr. J. Y.

Keid, ot the firm of Buntin, Reid of Toronto. He corroborated Mr Morgan's evidence in relation to the pur chase bv Senecal of a lot of mill-board and straw-board, but stated that he did not know of the payment to Senecal until some time after it was made. The Chairman Did you ever notify Mr. Chapleau about it? ltness Ts 1 did not. To Mr.

Taylor witness admitted that he was a director of the Toronto Gi.obk, but he had not drawn public attention to the matter in that newspaper; neithei did he ever write to Col. Chamberlin, the Queen's Printer. Mr.C.A.Dansereau, postmaster of Montreal, remembered when the material was being purchased for the I'rintiug Bureau, but took no interest in it. On one occasion, just before leaving for New York on private business, he met Mr. Chapleau in Montreal, and the Secretary of State asked him while in New Y'ork to call at the office of the Hoe Press Company and the Potter Press Company and get their price lists.

He was also told to inform the fiim for Mr. Chapleau that if it ever came to his knowledge that they paid any commission on orders for the Canadian Government the orders would be cancelled. The managers of both companies told him that they were not in the habit of doing so that they had large transactions with the Washington Government, aud sometimes gave something toward political fjrails. After this, at the linns' request, he gave them the names of the Conservative organizations in Montreal, Ottawa and Toronto. This was before the goods had been purchased.

The conversations occupied each about minutes. He did not suggest that they should subscribe to the party funds, but merely gave the names at their request. This was after Senecal had been appointed Superintendent. He had no doubt then about his honesty, but merely warned the companies because Mr. Chapleau told him to do so, adding that he knew it was an American custom to give such commissions.

Witness told Mr. Chapleau that as an old newspaper man he would give the preference to the Hoe press, but Senecal wanted the Potter. Three weeks after his return home the Hoe people sent one of their men to him in Montreal with the expectation of getting an ordei, but he told him that the whole thing was in the hands of Mr. Senecal, and that he must see him. Witness never talked to Senecal about the Printing Bureau, and never had any correspondence with him on the subject.

He denied most emphatically that he had ever suggested a commission to the Hoe company. When they asked him about the political organizations, he mentioned the one with which he was more especially connected, and gave the name of Mr. Benoit, the president of the French Conservative Association. He had no knowledge of any money being paid by these people, aud did not believe that any ever was. Mr.

Tarte You are sure that no bargain was made with them to supply money Witness I should think not. Mr. Lister heie turned round angrily towards Mr. Tarte, who asked him if he doubted Mr. Dansereau's word on oath, aud forced him to admithe did not.

Witness here produced the deed of partnership between himself and the Hollands in relation to the school readers, which contract was not with the Quebec Government, but with the Council of Public Instruction, a non-political body till Mr. Mercior took hold of affairs. Att.nt the Letter. Mr. J.

Brooks Young, of Montreal, testified that he was the president of the New England Paper of Montreal. He had had a contract with Mr. Berthiaume, of La PiiKssE, to supply paper, the original of which was filed in court at Montreal. He explained the matter by saying that when Wurtele Co. sold out their interest in La Fkesse, Mr.

Berthiaume became the lessee and assumed Wurtele Co's. indebtedness, which was transferred to him and secured to witness by notes for nearly $9,000, endorsed by Hon. Mr. Chapleau. The agreement filed in court was concurrent with the transfer of the paper and the clause relating to a division of profits on sales made to the Government was inserted by witness himself.

It was purely a business transaction. When they wee negotiating, Mr. Berthiaume asked witness if he ever got any orders from the Government. Witness replied "no," and Mr. Berthiaume said they should get some.

His company naturally desired to get all the orders they could, and after thinking about the matter he wrote the clause and put it in the contract. He did not know if he had ever received a letter fiom Mr. Chapleau, but could not swear that he hail not. Mr. Chapleau Did I ever write letter about the contract? you a Witness If you did write me such a let ter, Mr.

Chapleau, 1 don't remember it. Mr. Lister Have vou not within the last three or rive weeks stated that you had a private letter from Mr. Chapleau, by which Mr. Chapleau confirmed the terms of this agreement.

ltness replied that he did not remember. aud being pressed, protested against the treatment he was receiving. Mr. Lister 1 1 11. LOCALS IN BRIEr Mr.

The committee enquiring iuto the charges preferred by Messrs. Flint and Cam eron against the memuer tor r.ast ortn- umberland met yesterday and heard evi dence. Several witnesses were examined, ho threw no new light upon the investigation. Mr. L.

Payne was satisfied th. committee which conferred thw appointments in question had acted independently of the County Conservative Association. Thomas Johnson, son of Mr. Johnson, swore his father sold Mr. Cochrane the horse and cow referred to for $95.

The animals belonged to witness, and he was paid for them in notes, which be cashed. Kmuia F. Simpson testified that she had never seen te letter containing the bargain about the bridge, which Arundel Simpson, on whose evidence the charges were founded, swore she had read. Afternoon SesMlon. When the committee resumed afternoon the case was considered in the closed and counsel delivered their addresses.

Mr. Barron claimed Mr. Cochrane had an intimate knowledge of the committee's transactions, and knew that money was being paid for the bridge appaintments and benefited by said money. Mr. Osier contended that not a single witness had shown that Mr.

Cochrane sold patronage for personal benefit. There was nothing wrong in Mr. Oocbrane's relegating the administration of the patronage to a committee. He might concede for the sake of argument that the committee had acted irregularly, but it was not without excuse that these men. loaded down with debt, the result of repeated election protests, should devise this method of ridding themselves of their liability.

In the eye of the law they had done wrong, but these men had no idea that they were committing a wrong. Conceding so much, what had the prosecution made out They had utterly failed to show that Mr. Cochrane had "corruptly agreed" to do the things charged against him. The only persons whose testimony at all affected Mr. Cochrane directly were Arundel Simpson, Bulloch and Goodrich.

Surely the committee would not condemn Mr. Cochrane on the testimony of Arundel Simpson. Not the slightest credence could be attached to his evidence. Arundel's statutory declaration had been drawn up by a reputable solicitor, and yet the witness denied that he had made a statutory declaration. Not a single statement in the declaration was confirmed by his subsequent testimony iu cross-examination.

The manner in which the witness contradicted himself and cont adicted his own declaration, was a good reason for discrediting his whole testimony. With regard to Bulloch's evidence, although he had said that Mr. Coch-rance had been in his store one evening when the committee were there, nothing had been said to show that Mr. Cochrane had taken part in the proceedings. In regard to the Goodrich payment, in like manner the prosecution had failed to prove Mr.

Cochrane'8 connection with it. In conclusion he denied that his client had been guilty of any corrupt act. After a few observations from Mr. Barron, the committee adjourned.
