rm times at the bat, THE STAGE. Victorien Sardou’s “Daniel “Ro- chat"—The American Version. 4 Play Dustrative of Atheism in Man and Reverential Faith ~ in Woman, ‘Our Theatres”*—Business of the Past, and the Program for the Com- ing Week. "Hamlin's Scenic Artist—Actore, Actresee, Managers, and Plays Briefly Oon- sidered. “DANIEL ROCHAT” IN AMERICA. An informal reading to a few frieads and some members of the Union Squure Theatre Compa- ny was on Friday given in Haveriy’s office of the play of “Daniel Hocbat,” with which A. M. ‘Paimer bas concluded to open hfs tenth regular season In New York. This play is from the pen of Victorien Sardou, gnd is bis first work since bis, election to the Frénch Academy. 1t is also the first serious work ever accepted from him by the Théatre Francais. Apart from the value of the play asa play, one cannot but admire the ustutencss with which Sardou selected his sub- ject. The subject of the play is atheism in mun, reverential faith in woman. Without deciding in favor of ether, Sardou has managed dramatically to discuss both their theories and their feelings, the clashing of which afford the dramatic fncidentsof the work. The astuteness in selecting such a subject for iplay atsuch a time was not at first apparent © the Committee of the Théatre Fran- mis, nor even to the critics or the Committee of the Chamber of Deputics who pussed upon its merits. It was not until the. order. was issued expelling the Jesuits from France that the timeliness of tho work was understood. Nor was it until the ‘second order was {ssucd recalling the Com- unists to thet Same country that the extraordi- nary anticipation of public feeling in the play ‘became apparent. It is scarcely possivle to doubt that with the subject we have, in a great- crorlesser degree, the sumé timely interest here, for it is in vain we might try to deny that. ‘we have now an antagonism between faith and disbelief, running from one end of the land to ‘the other, forming the topfe not only of public discussion in lyceums and halls, but that of con- verention around thd family bearth, an one clubs, and in all assemblages; great and little. ‘The discussion in the play is brought about by the marriage of an athefstto a believing girl. In this way the struggles of life are made to in- tensify the divisions between the man who does not believe and the woman who does. When first the ptay was produced Iast season, the reudens of THE TruwuNe were made ac- quainted with {ts reception at the Théatre Frupgais. The - play was hissed by one-half its audience, and just Fs vehemently cheered by tho other half. Both hisse3 and jeors were directed to the sentiments, not at the art ‘dis- played in the work itself. Surdou and -his play were condemned by the critics, The piece was damned as pluy never was before at the Frin- ¢ais; but when the passions the subject ex- cited had died out Sardon’s work was recor- nized. Then it gradually dawned upon Euro- pean criticism that Sardou had bandied the most difficult of all subjects that can be bandicd upon the stage withadeftness anda wily acumen that fairly justified bis recognition by tbe Thé- cire Francats, and with a iiterary skill that ‘vindicated the votes which elected him an acad- extician. "Tho translation to be produced at tha Union Square in no way alters the structure of or yeils the theories advanced in the original work. The only difference between pro- duction “to. be made at the Union Square and that at the French theatre ‘will be first in the different languages: eccondly, in the cast selected tu represent the characters; and, thirdly, in the mounting of the play on the siage. The list of the cust tor the American production we are unable wholly to obtain. We were refused it on the ground that Manager Pulmer bid not yet otficiully given it for pub- lication; but, hearing the play read, we buve lite doubt that we can cast it for Manager Palmer ourselves. Such parts as Daniel Rochat nuturally cast themselves tu the best leading actor procurable, and, as Mr, Thorne is the leading actor of the Union Square Theatre, we sfuppuso it will fall to hhis lot to portray the vbinking philanthropist, statesman, und atheist. Thedry, positive, old un- believer could tind no dryvr representative than Mr. Stoddart, while the natty Mr. Rainsey would Daturally be custfor youny Cassimer Farjis, the dandy of Monte Carlo. and the victim of Esther Henderum's fuscinations. The leading female part, that of the wife of Dania Rochat—Lea Hen- derson—will, we might almost say imperative- ly, fall to the lot of Miss Sara Jewett, while her lighter-hearted sister Esther should find 2 good: representative in Miss Maud Harrison. Mrs. Powers the aunt, au American woman grown gray in good works, will be in all probability allotted to Mrs. Phillips. OUR THEATRES. There will be nocbange in the bills at our Jeading loca! theatres during the weck.* At McVicker's last Monday Mr. W. D. Eaton‘s “ All the Rage" sturted auspicidusly upon a four weeks’ run. Since then the audiences have been Jarre, and the manner in which they have re- ‘ceived the piece leaves no room to doubt thut “All the Rare” has made a popular hit. Upon the opening night—the first time the company had played together—there were mauy blemishes in the acting which had almost entirely disappeared last night. The Union Square Theatre company have given sat- isfaction in “Tho Falso Friend" at Haverly’s. Itis a strong play, and it is finely acted. We have already grhaustively treated the perform- ance. A word might here be said about the setting of “The False Friend” which has evoked a good deal of admiration. It is illus- trated with Scenes taken from Marshall's “ Man- sions of England.” ‘The exterior in the first act, where the festival of tae harvest home is, being celebrated, Is a reproduction of Wallaton Manor in ‘ England. The interiors that. follow sre rooms in that munsiun reproduced in form, in color, and in decoration. The furniture is copied from plates in the Astor Library, illustrative of kome deoo- ration in the time of Queen sinne and tne early Georges. Animprovement is upparent in the neting of the Criterion Comedy company at Hooley’s since the performiunces early ‘last week, and * Freaks" is now pleasing the au- diewves gt that house. Business hus been not large, but proud; indeed, that has been’ the case at all our theatres. 3 IAMLIN’S SCENIC ARTIST. Mr. George W. Dayton, the scenic artist at the new Grand Opera-Houee (Hamlin‘s), began his labors last Monday, being assisted by his son. AS vgy muchor the success of the new theatre will depend upon the efforts of Mr. Dayton, a short sketch of his carcer as au artist is ap- pended, Mr. Dayton comes from a fumily of artiste, his brother, Mr. Oscar V. Dayton, having been the first artist in Maguire's “ Jeany Lind ‘Theatre in San Francisco in 1619. Minard Lewis, recently deceased, was his cousin. Possessed of inherent abilities for his profession, Mr. Dayton bas gained great knowledge and proficiency. At the age of 15 he was first employed at the Old very Theatre,New York, then managed by eddy S Johnson. In 1836 and 1857 be assisted in ‘we production of the “Red Gnome” and the - seen Monster.” under the direction of Mr. «cumun, These pantomimic spectacles, which introduced the celebrated Ravel family, were ut that time considered the most gorgeous ever proguced in America. In 1857 he also painted the gocnery for Geo risty’s Minstrel Hall, next door to Niblo’s. In 188 he went to the Howard, Boston, then uuderthe manacement of James 3.Nixon. In 1360 he returned to New York, engdz nz atthe Broadway Theatre ithen named Wulluck’s). Thence he went to the American, Philacelphia, but returned to the ‘roudway when Wood and Barney Williotns. assumed its control. From the Broadway he went to the Grand Opera House wit Janae Fisk, ‘hers he remained five yeurs, iocinnad ‘during shat time to fit Pike's Opera- House with a stock of scenery. After the Fisk engagement: he Went to Boston with Augustin Daly as artist for the Glube Theatre. Mr, Dayton was then sought by Manager Tom Maguire for Baldwin's mag- nilicent Academy of Music, San Francisco. “Mr, Hania socures him direct from the last-named Ouse. . = . Br. Dayton is. unknown to Chicago, but whén it is understood that the scenes for McKee Hankin’s *Danttes," which have so often re- culved praise here, were originally designed by Ar. Dayton, there wilt be.# favorable opinion of bis merits ns an artist. He was} complimented ith 2 cail for each scone when were first isclosed nt Baldwin's Theatre.

Manager Abbey has stuck in front of Booth’s Theatre, New ¥ ork, four specinens of Sarah Bernhardt's skillas an artist. They are miniu- ture portraits of herself painted upon stone. In one of thom the actress appears in her favor- it male attire. It is said that the artist does not represent herself to be so entirely diaphanous and unsubstantial as she has been described in some of the printea anatomical analyses, While the London papers hare been generally unsparing in their condemnatton of “Col. Scl- Jers” as ua play, their criticisms upon Mr. Ruy- mond haye been of the most kindly description. Something like the following is repeated Inevery form: ‘Mir.

Do you know that I spent $10,000 in London last ‘year in order to pave the way to this very success she’s having now? And, after all this, she refuses to come to America this year.” ‘Perhaps she fears Bernburdt,” haz- arded the reporter. “Years your granny’s cat!” returned Harry. “What's Bernhardt to Mod- jeska? It's pure cussedness. 1 should have made $100,000 out of her if she had come.” For the coming senson'the members of Rice's Surprise Party will include Misses Topsy Venn, Marion Elmore, Lina Mervilic, Marion Singer, Victoria Reynolds, Lavinia Bennett, Carrie Per- kins, lie Beaumont, Ada Lee, tho Cameron sisters, Rose Wilsgn, Emma Burgess, Emma Duchuteau, Floretce Knox, Estelle Lowell, and Isabelle Clarence, Messrs. John Gourlay, Harry EB. Dixey, John'A. Mackay, Goorge W:! Howard, Donald Harold, Horace Frail, Henry Kramer, Edward Aiken, Edward Morse, and John P. Cook. Mr, H. Sator will be the musical director, Ernest Stanley general. agent, and Jobn J. McNally press agent. The company will appear in “Revels,” * Horrors,” “ Hiawatha,” “Babes In the Wood,” “ Robinson Crusoe,” and 8 new spectacular piece, the name of which is hot yet divulged. Mme. Chaumont, the Parisian soubret, who recently played in London, is thus deseribed by an American correspondent: “She is above all things sui generis, but, if a comparison had to ba mude, I should say she werea Lotta who had been brought up in Paria, instilled with the spirit of pare: cussedness’ that runs riot through cafés ehantants, molded into artistic shape by the in- xenious authors and stage managers of this guy cxpital, and then let loose before the footlights to work ber own sweet will in the most ‘refined channels of sness. Chaumont does not pro- ceed altogether upon impulses like the crratic Lotta, She is a consummute artiste in her prov- ince, as great in her small way as Ristori in her Jarge one. She bas un ugiy little face, a figure which would be called dumpy, were it not for the manner in which ft is Atted by her modiste, and, in short, she owes little or nothing to per- sonal attractions, but given her charm of ex- pesion. and sho is the prettiest homely woman ever saw. This must have been a surfett of exquisit Jor indeed. The Leadville (Colo.) Democrat lust wee! tells us that “Jast night's entertainment at the Opera-House, and the subsequent fostival at the City-Hall, demonstrates clearly that society here was imbued with principles of éclat that characterize Hobuken, and that Leadville to- day was endowed with all the attributes of: Jer- sey Heights. The first effort to entertain by the Tabor Light Cavalry was in all ways a splendid consummation, and another laurel is added to tue wreath of conquests. Never before has the Opera-House shone with such brilliancy, and the auditorium wasa scene that saw its tm- print upon tHe leaves of time, and that will for- ever be cunspicuows to the social student. Beauty arrayed in ali her loveliness was gath- ered there, and chivalry guarded by its volup- tuous side. The selection was Robertson's de- lightful comedy of * Caste," which was rendered with great acceptability. At the conclusion of the entertainment at the Opera-House, the guests repaired to the City-Hall, where already the chandeliers shone upon ao scene of rare beauty and loveliness. “Danc! commenced at about 11 o'clock, and eyervbody abandoned themselves to the pleasure of the occasion. Not until morn begun to descend in ber gray attire did the guests retire, weary with a surfeit of exquisit joy.” . It seems to have been definitly decided that Marie Wiliams will travel with the Leavitt burlesque troupe, the business mannger of which will be Mr. Thomas Burnside, lute of this city. The detaiis of the legal squabble be- tween Leavitt and Rice in the London courts over her were to a certain extent given at the ume the case came up. Ernest Stunley, Rice’s agent, she now says “frightened” her into breaking her’ contract with Leavitt. He represented that Rice had made extensive preparations for her appeanimes in this country,.bad put out alarge quantity of lithographs, rales ete.,and misrepresented thugs generally. He promised tosee her through any legal bu: sbe might zet Into by refus- ing to go with Lenvitt. Her lawyer's bills amounted to some $500. Before the bills could be collected he ‘left for America and she ‘bad to foot them, which serves bor right for listening to ‘the tales of Mr. Suinley.’ Leavitt's company will appear at Haverly’s in this elty during the season. ‘The organization consists of Mme. Selina Dolan, Miss Marie Williams, Lizzie Mulholland, Fanoy Went- worth, Adelaide Praeger, Sfinnic’ Marsball, Ca mille D'Elmar, Alma Staniey, Daisy. famsden, Florence Vere, Marie Clifton, Nettio Davis’ Emily Parneau, Maud St. Clair, Gertie Camp: bell.

Among the pieces mentioned in the répertoire are a burlesque on “Carmen,” by Green and McArdle, and “ Fille du Tat four Major,” now running at the London Al. am! Mr. George Conquest, Sr., whose leg w: broken on the first aightof tho production of the Pantomime at Walluck’s Theatre. is progressing as well as.can be expected. His son’ now plays bis part.

It Was SO lastnight. When it was nearly time to ring down the curtain anc the preparations for the tableaux: were evidently complete, young Mr. Conquest was shot into the files ‘and ‘han for several seconds in. the presence 0; the audience, audibly exclaiming, ‘It's right;" don’t be afraid.’ - Meanwhile. of -the artists, said to ba Mr. WW.

A Magnificent Rally at the Bat Saves a Game for- Chicago. Providence Beaten in the Ninth * Inning Out of a Sure Game. Buffalo Defeated by Troy and Cincin- nati by Boston—The Game at Cleveland. THE CHAMPIONSHIP. All doubt concerning the result of the League championship contest bas-beea removed by the play of the past week, which gave Chicago two out of three, or nine out of the twelve, games ‘played aguinst Providence. Chicago’ has now ‘twenty-elght games to play, nincteen at home, and nine at Cleveland, buffalo, and Cincionati, respectively. For Providence now to win the championship it would have to win every game from this time forth, and Chicago would have to lose nalf its games—a contingency, as every body knows, tou remote to be considered. On the contrary, there is every reason to expect that Chicago's Iead will be increased hereafter rather than diminished. Providence still leads Cleveland one game for second place, and the outcome of the three gumes these teams play next week will virtually settle the standing of each. Troy is now 2 close fourth, being but one game behind Cleveland, while Boston leads Worcester one game for fifth place. The situa- tion 1s as fullows: : ¥ CITICAGO VS. PROVIDENCE. The first complete series of the Chicago team for the season of 1880 wag concluded yesterday in the presence of about 2,500 people, who saw the local uine win at the eicventh hour a game which but 2 moment before seemed hopclesly Jost. Up tothe beginning of the ninth inning the coming champions had utterly falled to hit Bradiey’s delivery with any effect, hav- fag ‘gotten in but four hits in elght in- nings, and the score then stood 8 to 1 agninst them. All of a suddon the aspect of affairs changed, the muscles of the big batsmen became free, and, almost before Providence and the delighted crowd of onlookers could realize it, astreak of magnificent batting had super ened, and the gamo was won. Such enthusiam as this evoked has not orten been seen on the home grounds. Chicago presented its team very much dislocated, Poorman occupying the cen- tral position, Corcoran playing short, Witliam- son second, and Burns third,—Quest being laid off on account of sore hands. The changes worked well inthe main. Corcoran was thor- oughly at home in tho inficld,and though ho muffed an easy fly and let grounder get away from him, it was evident that he knew how to tuke care of that partof the diamond At second base Williameon played 1 magnificent game, accepting cleven out of the twelve chances offered him. Burns at third was very effective, his only error being on a bard, swift grounder hit by Bradicy. Poorman proved to ‘be a complete suocess as a pitcher, and in every way jusutied the goud opinion held of him bere. Properly supported, there ig no reason why he ought not to be considered one of the very best of the League pitchers. : ‘The game pen rather tamely, the first three Chicugo batsmen going out on pop- up flies and u foul bound. In the second in- ning Burns hit clean ufter having been givena hfe by Gross’ muif of a foui bound, reached second on 2 passed ball, but no furthor, as two men were already out, avd Corcoran sent an easy fly to Ward. In the fourth, after two were out, Anson got in 2 two-baser, but was left by Kelly, who, after letting three good balls gu by, gave Gross a foul up. Nobody suw first base again for Chicago until in the seventh ino- fog. when Williamson earned bis base, went to second on a pussed ball, to third on Anson's out, and home on Kelly's retirement at first. eighth inning ‘was wholly a blink, and the ninth began with a score of 3 to 1 to face. Dalrymple led off with a single to left field, and was enabled to reach sesond on Farrell's neglect to properly cover the buse when Houck threw the ballin. Now came Gore with his first hitin the game, and a beauty it was, entitling the striker to two bases, and bringing Dalrymple home amid great cheering. Wiltinmson's slow bit to Farrell and out at first helped Gore to third, and Anson tied the game with a safe bit, and was’ cheered furiously. Kelly, who had hitherto done nothing with the stick, here drove a tremendous low tiner between left and centre, bringing Anson ail the way home, and himself getting third. on the play. Burns was then forthcoming with an elegant - liner just’ over Peters’ head, whereon Kelly tallied, to the immense satisfac- tion of the spectators. Burns then tried a steal to second, but was thrown outby Gross to Far- rell. ‘Corcoran, having -sent Ward 2 grounder too hot to hold, stole second cleverly, but Flint closed the inning with an easy ground hit to Farrell The result was four runs,of which threo were earned, and ali would have been un out after he bad hit safe. All this took place inan incredibly short space of time, and from having the game safely in hand Providence was confronted with a reversal of scores, having to make two to tie and three towin. Anybody could - see that this was almost an utter impossibility, for, behold, whon the Chicagos took the field again for the last half o1 the ninth inning, Corcoran was in bis home position, Poorman in right field. Kelly at third, and Buro@at short—a change which the crowd applauded heartily, for. this was a time to put the best foot forward, and everybody knew the gume was sife with Corcoran in the pitcher's square. Itso proved, as Start and Farrell felt victims to Williamson and’ Ansou, and Peters to Burns and Anson,—thus ending one of the most Anteresting games and creditable victories on record. ‘The runs scored by Providence were with one exception unearned. Muffed tiies by Dalrympl and Corcoran in the first filled secun and first bases, but no runs‘ resulted... A fum- bled grounder by Williamson, together with hits by Dorgan end Houck, gave a run in toe second. In the third inning Dorgan started in with a two-baser, but got no further thunthird. Gross bit for two buses in the sixth, but a magnificent catch off the fence by Goro of Houck's long tly (prevented arun. Theseventh inning saw brad. cy given first by Corcoran’s juggle, and when Hines followed with a clean grounder to left Dalrymple let the bail get by bit, so that Brad- ley Scored and Hines reached’ third. Start brought bim home witha safe hit, but was himself forced out at second by Farrell’s nit to Williamson. Then Peters hit clean, sending Farrell to second, and both were advanced a bee on Ward's out at fikst. Gross was seot to first on balls, and the bases were full. Dorgun leftthem so ona fly to Dal- rymple. In the eighth Bradley was made safe by Burns’ juggle of his grounder, but Hines, hit- tng sharply to Willlamson, aiforded opportunity fora handsome double play.

The rash and fresh young man of the Cincin- beet Enquirer bas already begun the laying out of League legislation and nction for the next annual mecting, and, a8 usual, has got it all fixed up andsettled,—first, that the League must not dure to interfere with Sunday gumes and beer-peddling on the Cincinnat! grounds; sec- ond, that the five-players’ agreement, providing for the reservation by each Club of five players who shall not be available for engagements in other Clubs, must and shall be forever abolished. Now it usually happens that ther. and f. y. m. referred to gets the wrong end of every argi ment,. and the present case is no e. ception. - His threat that Cincinnati will withdraw from the League in the event or any abridgment of her. Club's revenues from Sunday games or the sale of beer on the grounds at League games is, caicu- luted to cause u general smile among Club offi- cersand managers, who without exception re- gurd Cincinuati as a nuisance in connection with the schedule of games, and would be very gland to be spared the'necessity of ever visiting it to play @ gume of bail, All the other Clubs in the League keep their grounds solely for the benefit of the Lengue, permitting no games to ‘be played thercon excepting League games. Their aim is to secure for the League all the base-ball patronage of their respective communitics, to divide with the League the whole of the money paid for base-ball, They allow no liquor to be sold on the grounds, and pander tono drunkard’s depraved appetite by putting the temptation. of beer beforchim within easy reach at bull- gumes. At Cincinnati the Captain of the homo team used to be ordered to slow-up between inn- ings so us to allow the crowd to drink more beer, the profit on which was an important source of revenue to the Club. Even now the beer-jerk- ing and the Sunday games are relied on to help the Club out Hnancially, and the present Cincin- nati nine are employed very much as pretty waiter-girls ure,—to increase the consumption and sale of beer and swell the receipts of tho Club. It is degrading, offensive, ruinous, this association-of base-ball and beer, and the League Should legislate against it with us much severity as it has legiélated acainst everything that tends to brihg the game into disrepute. Decency re- quires that tbis business of running a base-ball team as an adjunct toa brewery should be sat down upon by the League. Similar severity should be displayed towurd Sunduy games: on League Club grounds. Such gumes ure 2 fraud upon visiting clubs, in that they uttruct to the Sunday play visitors who would otherwise go to a Monday gume, and surfeit and c vy the app ute of the community for base-ball?” The que: tiun botb of Sunday games and beer-jerking Is not one of morals, bu: of sound Wusiness policy. Base-ball, outside of Cincinnati, ig supported by a class of people by whom these practices are regirded as un ubominxtion,—a class of people whose patronage is of inUnitly greater value in dollars aud cents, let alone respectability, than that of the clement to whom beer is an attriuc- tion and a necessity. HW the Cincinnati Club wants to have Sugday games and convert -its grounds into a beer suloon, let it do it outside the League. There are plenty of cities anxious tu take the pice vacated by Cincinnati, whose retlretent Would be hailed with general satis- ‘action. . On the subject of the continuance of tho five- pluyers’ agreement a fRis0NE reporter yester- day interviewed President Hulbert, the head of the League and of the Chivago Club. * “Do you thiuk the agreement, reserving play- ers will be kept in furce?”. was asked. “Ibaven't a doubt of it,” was the emphatic response, “But notice some signs of oppositign to a renewal of the measure for next_year,—notubly in the case of the Cinciunati Enquirer, whic! regards the ugreement as mbitrary and unjust to the players.” “dbut is all stuff and nonsense,” sald Mr. Hulbert. “The agreement iz # vital necessity to the League. It iz perfectly just and proper stroke of business fur the clubs to agree among themselves to put a stup.to bidding ror players. The effect of a contrary policy would be td kill off the weaker clubs by tuking from them the players who have the strongest hold on public Tavor in their respective cities. ‘there are not to exceed two clubs in tho Leusue which could live if the bidding process was in vogue. All but two will quit the season of 1880 with if ay- erase loss of $2,000, and none of these clubs will be inn position’ to pay the incrensed sularies that competition for players would involve. Chivago could xtford to outbid any and all elubs if itcume to that, but to doso would not only wWenken but iinpoverish and soon drive out of existence the clubs whosg patronage and reve- fue will not justify an increase of their sulary- 3. “Then the Buffalo agreement is of no advan- cago?" tage to Cl “None whatever.

CANADA. Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Searonru, Aug. 1£—The Ontario Agri- cultural Commission opened an inquiry here into the salt industry in the Coynty of Huron chiefly with reference to the utility of Cana- dian salt as a fertilizer and for dairy pur- poses. Louis Rightmeyer, an’ American gentleman, who has been engaged as o salt- manufacturer at Kincardine since 1871, was examined, and stated that the market was chiefly in Chicago, Milwaikee,- and other Western places, and his salt was used mainly for pork-packing. ‘The Canadian market was pretty well. occupied by English salt, which was brought across the At- Jantic as ballust, and admitted free of duty. He made about 10,000 tons annually, all of which he sold in the United States, ex- cept about 2,000 tons, which was sold in Can- ada. His Western customers preferred Cz nadian salt to English salt. for pork-packing, as it was proved by analysis to be purer. He had received no complaints of ‘it at all. Farmers in Canada were now using itasa fertilizer with excellent results, especially on wheat It made the straw stronger, and the kernels brighter and plumper. For this pur- pose it was sold at from $2.50 to $3 per ton. N. Y. Coleman, of the tirm of Coleman & Gowanlock, Seaforth, said they produced from 70,000 to 75.000 barrels_of sult per year. ‘Their market was in the United States and Canada. The only complaints were made by pork-packers, who alleged that.the salt pro- duced .a kind of briny scum on the meat. ‘This he thought was owing to pork-packers not dealing fairly with the salt-producers in not ordering early enough to enable them to Fe out the Salt in a properly-dried condition. le corroborated the testimony of the last witness as to the value of salt as a fertilizer. Mr. Seott Robinson, formerly a_ pork- packer and now a buyer of butter for the En- glish market; Edward Cash, also a butter- buyer; and George Sproat, a farmer, testified, trom their own experience in their avoca- tions, to the value of Canadian salt. Mr. Sproat stated that he had used it with equal- jy beneficial resuits on turnips, barley, and spring-wheat. It served to create moisture about the roots of turnips, and caused their rapid growth. He said he used from 400 to 500 pounds per acre. He bought it by the wagon-lond, for $2.60 per: ton. William Gray, of the firm of Gray, Young & Spalding, of Seaforth, end H. Blyth, stated that wherever Canadian salt had been exhibited—whither at Philadelphia, Sydney, or Paris—it had taken the lead of the salt of all other natlous, Medals were produced which had been awarded to it at the above places.
