No instance of refusal by the Canadiau authorities since July 1, 1885, up to the present time to allow the entry at seaports of American cargoes other tban fish for transportation in bond across the territory of Can- ‘ada to the United States has been made known to the Department of state. “The case of the steamer Novelty, involv- ing, ainong other things, a refusal on July'l, 1886, of the right to permit the transbipment of fish in ond at the part of Pictou, N. S., was duly commu- nicated to Cot in my message of December 8, 1886, a copy ot which I herewith transmit.” ‘The President says that the Senate committee on foreign ‘relations, hag already been upped With a list of cases of alleged ill-treatment of our fishing vessels in Canadian waters, and, as relat- ing to the subject of the resolution, hé quotes a passage from Mr. Edmunds’ report as of interest ‘and relating to the subject, ‘WRONGS TO AMERICAN VESSELS SINCE MARCH 3, 1887. In answer to the concluding inquiry as to what instances have occurred since March 3, 1887, of ‘Wrongs to American vessels in the ports of British North America and what steps have been taken in ‘that respect, the President Says: “Soon after the ‘of the act the jong, which had n proceeding for several months ' previously, Progressed actively, and the proposed conference and the presence at 'this capital of the plenipoten- Uaries of the two governments, out of which the Since rejected treaty of February 7, 1888, eventu- ated, had their natural infuence'in 1 ng Causes of complaint in relation to the ries, ‘Therefore, since March 3, 1887, no case has been reported to the Department of State wherein com- plaint was made o: unfriendly or unlawful treat ment of American fishing vesselson the part of the Canadian authorities in which reparation was not Promptly and satisfactorily obtained by the United States consul-general at Halifax. A single case of alleged unjust treatment of an American mer- chant vessei not engaged in Msbing has been re- ported since March 3, 1837.” IN CASE OF THE SHIP BRIDGEWATER. In conclusion, the President explains that this Was the case of the ship Bridgewater, which was made the subject of a communication tothe British government June 22, 1888, and to which no fur- ther reply has been received. The case of the steamer Bridgewater, to which tue President re- fers, 1s the subject ofa communication dated June 22, 1888, from Secretary Bayard to Mr. Edwardes, Of the British legation, was disabled by a storm, and on April 5, 1887, put into Shelbourne, N.

Should the facts be as stated it 1s hoped that the Justice of the claim will be recognized and Uuat proper compensation awarded.” THE WELLAND CANAL. ‘The communications with respect to the Wel- land Canal comprise reports trom Commercial Agent Hotchkiss, at Ottawa, who forwards orders in counell governing the rates of charges through tue canal; a letter from the Secretary of the Treasury Uo the Secretary of state, dated July 10, 1888, in Which he calls attention to “that the report of the commissioner of navigation re- lating to an alleged discrimination by the Cana- dian government in the matter of the navigation of the Welland Canal,” and says it ts understood that the discrimination still exists; a letter from Secretary Bayard to Minister west, dated July 21 last, as follows: wstr_-thave the honor to inclose herewith copy of a letter from the Treasury Department, o} the 10th instant, in relation to an alleged dis- crimination agalnst American vessels passing through the Welland Canal By the twenty-sev- enth article of the treaty of Washington, her majesty’s government undertook to urge upon the governinent of the Dominion of Canada to grant citizens of the United States the use of the Wel- land and other canals on terms of equality with the inhabitants of the Dominion. Op the other hand, the Government of the United States prom- ised ‘to secure, as far as possible, reciprocally, equal treaument of inhabitants of the Dominion using canals in the United States connected with the lake system of transportation. ‘The Depart- ment is informed that such equality of treatment now exists in the Cnited States.

R. encampment at Columbus yesterday afternoon excitement was caused by the reading of a dispatch from President Cleveland, acknow!- edging the receipt of an invitation to attend the encampment and explaining that it had been mis- laid by his secretary and forgotten in the press of business. For Unis and bis inability to be present he expressed his regret, It was said by some dele- gates after the meeting that the reading of the dispatch was followed by hisses and cheers, and conflicting motions came from all parts of the ‘audience to lay the dispatch on the tabie and refer to the committee on pensions. Angry inquiries Were made for the name of the person wo had sent the invitation. Gen. Ketter, it is excit- edly asked Commander-in-chiet Rea ‘it he had sent the invitation, and the latter quickly replied that he had not. After ab uproar, which lasted fifteen “minut all the motions were declared out of order au the regular business was proceeded with. It was decided to hold the next national encampment in Milwaukee.

PROCTOR, Astronomer Dies in New York of Yellow Fever, ‘ME BROUGHT THE DISEASE FROM PLORIDA—THE BOARD OP HEALTH MUCH ALARMED—GUARDING AGAINST 4 ‘SPREAD OF THE DISEASE, Prot. Richard A. Proctor died in New York at 7:15 last evening of yellow fever, his death being pre- ceded by black vomit. Prof Proctor had an ob- servatory at Oaklawn, Marion County,Fia., and he resided there with his family. He intended to go ‘ Europe, and arrived in New York last Monday, having already engaged passage on a steamer sall- ing next Saturday. He stopped at an up-town hotel, the name of which is suppressed by the board of health. He usually stops at the West- minster. Monday evening he complained of feel- ing ill, and as he had been troubled with Bright’s disease for some time, his symptoms were attrib- Uted to this disease. ‘The physician visiting him ‘thought he would be about on Tuesday. He slept at the Rovel On Tuesday, however, he became ‘worse, Degan to show symptoms of yello fever.’ As the day wore on the symptoms became more marked, and no doubt was had of the nature of tbe disease. It was then decided {0 remove him to North Brothers’ Island, Dut it stormed so hard that it was subsequeatly considered imprudent to remove him so far, and he was removed to the Willard Parker Hospital. ‘The board of health was not informed of the case until y when it caused consternation, in ‘Tything in toe apartment Sccupted was destroyed, and his Foom and the hal Were thoroughly fumigated, President, Baylis decided to keep the office ot the board of health ‘open last night, for fear of any further cases. Dr. Bay! ever, Says that the efforts of the depart- ment Will probauly prevent the spread of the dis- ease. In case of an outbreak of the fever, he said, ‘he Was prepared <o accommodate many hundreds of patients on North Brothers’ Island. But he feared no such outbreak, Prot. Proctor said there had been no yellow fever in the part of the country he had come trom, and he was unable to account for hia attack, . HIS LIFE AND WORKS, Richard Anthony Proctor was born in Chelsea, England, March 23, 1837. He was educated at home until his eleventh year, and then entered an academy in Milton-on-T! where he remained Unree years and became head boy of the institu. Uon. “After the death of his father in 1850 the Decame embarrassed through chancery de- Jays ina triendly suit, and in 1864 Richard ac- cepted a olerksiip in a’London devoung all his spare ume to the study of mathematics, In 1855, the situation of the family having been tm- proved, he entered King’s Coulege, London, and in i856 SC. John’s College, Cambridge. He took his degrees in 1860, and married in ‘the same year. For the next three years his studies were mostly historical and literary. In 1863 he wrote an essay on “Double Stars,” which appeared in the Cornhill MMe In 1865 he publisued a monograrh on “Sucura,” and eariy in 1866 his “Gnomouie Star AUas” ahd “Handbook of the Stars.” These works Were of @ scientific, but not popular nature. In 1806, by the failure of a bank in London, he lost the whole of bis fortune, and nis sclenuilé Mork was considerably hampered, by duties aris- ing from this circumstance. In 1869 he made some Suggestions to the astronomer royal, Sir George AIFY, a8 Uo the best method of observing the ap- Proaching transit of Venus, and at a meeting of the principal astronomers of England at the Greenwich Observatory in 1873 luis Views were Unanimously approved. But uls chief scientitic Work since 1867 consisted in the investigation of the evidence available for determining tue struc Lure of the stellar and nebular universe. In 1870 Mr. Proctor published a work enitied, “other Worlds Than Ours,” which had an extraordinary ‘success and attracted the general attention of the Sclentille Worid. From that ume he was, perhaps, the most fertile aud popular writer upon as: Yppnomical subjects of the present day. In 1873 he visited the United States and. deliv- ered lectures, and again In 1879, and subsequently {ook up his residence in this country, His second wife Was @ St. Joseph, Mo., lady, and they were married in 1885. ‘Tuey lived at St. Joe for quite a while, and then moved to New York. Prot, Proc- tor had lectured and written extensively on scien- Ufc subjects ta tls country. His published books besides those above mentioned were “Con: Steliation Seasons” and “Sun Views of the Earth” ocdon, 1867); “Halt Hours with the Telescope” 1868); “Halt Hours with the Stars” (1869); “The “Star Atlas,” “Elementary Astron iy” and “Light Science for Leisure Hours"(1870): “Essays on Astronomy” and “Orbs Around Us’ Q871); “Chart of 324,000 Stars, Astronomy,” and “Kicmentary Physical Geogra- 3 “Light Science,” &., second series; loon”'and “Border Land of Science” (1873) and “The Universe and Coming Transits,” “1ran- Sitsof Venus, Past, Present and Future,” and “The Expanse of “Heaven” (187: “eee. Michael Davitt’s Story. WHAT HE 18 PREPAKED TO TESTIFY TO BEFORE THE PARNELL COMMISSION. Michael Davitt intends to apply to the Parnell ‘Commission for permission to give evidence before that body. He has prepared for the press an ab- Stract of the statement he proposes to make be- fore the commission, commencing with occur- Tences in 1866, When he joined the Irish Repubil- can Brotherhood. On his release from Portland prison he concluded that the Irish were not Adapted for agitation by secret, conspiracy, and formed s plan of open combination, He cotiinu- Ricated his views to the leaders of both the revo- lutionary and constitutional parties. After his tour in America he started a movement to make the land question the basis of ugitation. He con- troverts the Zimes’ theory that this’ new de- Parture had anything to do with the new parture Originated in New York. Althoush de- fending the American proposal, so far as it in- cluded his scheme for supplinting direct con- spiracy, he says he was convinced that an alliance Detween the constitutionalists and revolutionaries ‘wasimpossible and, therefore, took an independ- ent line without consulting either Mr. Parnell or the Fenian leaders. In 1879 he started an agita- ton against landiordism on funds recetved from his Amer‘can lectures. He applied to Joun Boyle O’Relliy, Patrick Ford and John Devoy for assist. ance. He received £500 from the national skiri fund, but, as the Fenian press objected to the use of the fund for constitutional agitation, he returned the amount. Mr. Parnell offered money from the resources of the league. Mr. Parnell’s official connection with tne move- ment began with tue organization of the league 1a October, 1879. Parnell, during bis absence in America, in the winter of 1879, forwarded Lo the league £50,000 to be distributed for the rellet of distress. In 1880, Davitt, going to America to form an auxiliary’ league, was expelled trom the Irish Republican Brotherhood for advocacy of constitutional agitation. Since then there has been constant hostility between the leagues and the Fenians, Karly in 1840 tour men visited his lodgings in Dubitn, designing to murder him. At the saine time a Fenian gang, headed by “Phoenix Park” Carey, broke up his meetings on the rotunda. About this time if he and other leaders 4n favor of open agitation had not been removed from the control of the league by the goverment imprisoning e conspiracy would never have been heard of ‘On the morning following the Phoenix Park murders he met Parnell, who, greatly excited, said he bad resolved to send hfs resignation to the Cork electors that very day, retiring utterly froma Irish politics, Parnell deciared that no man could ‘be safe wnere irresponsible conspirators organized deeds of that Kind, alming deadly blows at the constitutional movement on thé threshold of victory. Davitt succeeded in persuading bun to reconsider. ‘On the same day the manifesto condemning the murders Was sent to Ireland. Mr. Davitt, although taking no prominent part in the Nauional League, co-operated with Mr. Parneli’s delegates t6 Chicago in 1886 in trying to influence the conven- tion in the direction of a pacific policy, He was afterward condemued to be shot by tne council of dynamiters of the Rossa faction because he de- nounced the use of dynamite in Chicago. ———o A New Furnace that Destroys Garbage. ‘From the New York World, Sept. 12. A bumber of expert scientists and representa- tives of the board of health examined at Coney Island yesterday a patent crematory for the de- struction of refuse which took into its maw the carcasses of horses and dogs and piles of garbage, and ina short time reduced them all to ashes without making any stench. Some small dead animals and @ horse Were already inside. The fires were started and a dozen barrels of the gur- Dage turned in. ‘The doors were closed some miin- utes and then another lot of garbage went 1n, ‘upUl some four and a half tons of 1 was in the furnace. When the doors were opened all that re- mained of the great heap of matter was alfa barrel of white ashes, which was ery, odor- lesa. ‘The Coney Island board of heaith was so pleased that it accepted the furnace at once, The cost of operating the furnace 1s almost nothing com ‘with ‘the cost of carting the garbage away. ‘Three New Dances Introduced. ‘From the New York Tribune, Sept. 12, ‘The dancing -masters’ convention, which opened Proceedings at the Grand Union Hotel on Tuesday, Fesumed its sittings yesterday.
