METALIATION ON CANADA. Ground for the Bill Present im the House by Mr. Blount. Mr. Blount, the chairman of the House com- mittee on foreign affairs, has reported to the ination agninst American shipping on the lakes. The bili authorizes the President to retaliate on Canada if it be shown that the passage through any canal of that country is prohibited or is made difficult to any United States vessel by closing the St. Mary’s canal to free pasmge and by levying tolls upon Canadian freight of from $2 to 85 per ton. ‘Mr. Blount states in the report that in pur- suance of the purpose and spirit of the tresty of 1871 the United States permits the Canadian citizous the use of the St. Mary's Falls canal on the same terms given to itsown citizens. It then opens to the Conadien citizens on the same terms the use of the St, Clair Flate canal. | Canada, on the other hand, in addition toj vessel tolls, iraposos a cargo toll on At | f{rafic pasting through the Welland and St, | Lawrence canaln, This toll,in the case of wheat and other cereals, amounts to 20 cente the report eays that all efforts to secure a just interpretation of the treaty rights of American citizons have been met in @ spirit of evasion, avoidance end delay; and, further, such conduct is not only dishonest in’ purpose and deceitful in method, but almost reaches to the point of contumgly and insult. ‘Transfors of Real Estate.

Close to Helena, on lodges which mark former levels of the Missouri river, are the world-famous sapphire and ruby beds, 8,000 acres of which, with 2,000 other neres under water, have recently been acquired by an English company of noblemen, bankers, Jewelers and others for $2,000,000, the mere value of the gold which it is thought will be taken from the dirt. That sapphires and rubies were there bas been known for twenty years or more, some miners having kept the finer specimens and others having thrown them out or their pans into the river by the hundredweight as pebbles of no value. The truth, as I get it from ex- Pperts, is that these stones are true rubles and sapphires, and the only opportunity ‘they af- ford for’ criticism lee in the fact that very nearly all of thom are much Ughter in color than the Asiatic gems of the same sort. In other words, pigeon’s blood rubies and sap- phires, Blu capphiresare found there, but not often. And yet these stones of the’ lighter are of far greater brilliancy than the Astatic gems that fashion has approved, indeed, ‘they are often like diamonds, and as their hard Reval Majority Report of the House Committee on Investigation.

S. Hunt- les, the committee on public lands passes some Very severe criticisms upon Mr. Russell I, Har- rison. The report says that the Secretary made a lease to Mr. Huntley for the transportation business only, and without any tion to build any hotels, and declared a forfeiture of the right of ‘of the Yellowstone National Park Association without notice, with- | out trial or any statement of eny complaints for non-use or misuse of the right.

Kerens, to be held 3 | Subject to the order of the directors of the park sseociation, and his friend would explain fully. ‘The rey says: “He was a stranger to Kerens, id not know his addrew, but he knew that Kereny was a friend of Mr. Harrison.” * “Ho says that the reference in the let- ter to his friend was to his attorney, one Mr. Gray, but he could not give his name or ad- dress. He finally admits that the ‘friend’ re- ferred to and for whose benefit the stock was to be held was Mr. Russell B. Harrison. He says ren- tho service or not, nor whether the stock was requested by him to be issued for services or as a gift.” In conclusion the report says: “Cabinet min- subordinates, hoid their places at the will of the President, end they, as well as all other men, may be the recipients of tho executive power.
