Prince Bismarck’s Tribute—Impres- sive Funeral Ceremony-—Senora Canovas’ Forgiveness of the Assassin.
Mapaip, Aug. 14.—Prince Bismarck, in his telegram of condolence to Senora Canovas, says: “I have never bowea my head before to anyone; but 1 bow it every time I hear the name of Canovas.”
Maprip, Aug. 14—The funeral of the dead Premier was a most touching aud solemn ceremony. More than a thousand wreaths decorated {the death chamber. As the coffin was lifted by the pall bearers, Senora Canovas said: “I desire that all should know I forgive the assassin. It is the greatest sacrifice can make; but I make it for the sake of what I know of my husband’s great heart,”

Teronro, Aug. 11.—The —— con - tractors, not only of this city but of the whole province as well, are expressing | great dissatisfaction at the action of Hon. Mr. Tarte, in having on bis last visit to this city, of the eastern gap of Toronto harbor to W E. Phio, of Brantford. The contract is alleged to have been awarded without ten- der. It is a'so alleged that Mr. Phin has never had the slightes st experience in | dredging or any kind of lake or harbor work, and that he never owned a pound of dredging plant in his life. He is eaid to be a young man, who a few years ago left a farm in Waterloo county to sell varnish | for his uncle.
1 Orraw a, August 22 | statistican estimates that the
population of the Dominion at present
engaged in mining is somewhere in the | neighborhood of 30,000. Although there ‘has been a considerable influx of popula- | tion into the Western mining districts, yet
it is not calculated that it will make any | considerable increase in the permonent population of the Dominion, A Jarge por- tion of those who have flocked there have simply migrated from other portions of Canada, and of the strangers or aliens who have emigreted there but few comparati- vely will remain.
Vancouver, August 12.— Thirty-six mounted police have arrived in Vancouver in charge ot Lieut. Harper. They havea Maxim guo. They sail from Victoria on the 15th August. Twenty push through to Klondike with all haste, where they will enforce the laws and collect royalties. Sixteen will remain at Tagish to collect the revenue and establish a mail dog train. Men say they are glad to leave their mon- otonous former experience for new experi- ences and excitement. They say they expect trouble in collecting royalties. If this law is enforced they believe the force will be increased to 125. There is areport here to the effect that Major Walsh is to act as gold commissioner, and eventually as commander-in-chief of the police. Two revenue collectors accompany Lieutenant Harper.

SeatrrLe, Aug. 11.—The British steamt- ers Islander and Gees have arrived at Dyea with about 500 prospectors, which increase the number on the Dyea and Skaguay trails
| to fully 1,500. The probability of one man in ten reaching the Klondike is remote. Old Alaska prospectors, some of whom | have wintered in the Yukon and kaow what

Toroxto, Aag. 12.—The Globe’s Otta- wa special says: Major Walsh was ap-— pointed administrator of the Yukon district atasalarv of $5,000a year. He has accepted it ataconsiderable pecuniary sacrifice, and will probably resign after the territory is thoroughly organized in @ year or two and everything is in running order. It is the intention of the Government, if practicable, to establish a bank at Dawson city where the gold of the miners can be deposited in safety and exchanged for draughts. This step, however, would ne- ceasitate the establishment of an assay office as well. :
Terontro, Aug 12.—The first meeting of the Domision Plebiscite C ampaign Literature Committee of the Dominion Alliance was held yesterday afternoon. The committee was engaged the whole of the afternoon in a preliminary examioa- tion of different samples and forms of literature. Various plans for the distribu-
meeting will be held on Monday afternoon, at which definiteaction respecting several of the proposed plans will be taxen. The Alliance Exeeutive do not regard the postponement of the Plebisc:te Bill until next session as giving them more than barely enough time to prepare for the con- test, which they look for some time next year.

Toronro, Aug. 12.—Mr. Thomas Craw- ford, M. idk whois on extensive cattle shipper, says the new Dingley Tariff Bill has practically killed the export cattle business from Canada to the United States, which has grown up during the past year. A few cattle are «till going to Buffalo, which are bought by farmers to be fei for export. Mr. Crawford, however, does not look upon this result as an un- mixed evil, for he thinks that with the abundance of feed in Canada, and the fact that the United States buyers could afford to give one cent a pound more for cattle to export, the Canadiau farmers should do more of the exporting themselves, He believes that the tariff may heve the resnilt that the Canadian farmers will be forced to go more into the export business direct to the European merket, as they bave the start of the United States farmer in every way.
Orrawa, Ang. 12.—It is noted here that in the event of Canada retaliating against the withdrawal of the bonding priviledge, now accorded to the C. P. R. Of carriage of the United States foreign transit freight, Canadian ports on the Atlantic wi!l be greatly benefited. It is believed there will bea large increase in trade enableing St. John an Halifax to enlarge facilities for the handling of freightand the Canadian rouds to give cheaper rates. In the matter of hides alone imported from South America,a million and a quarter worth came to Can- ada by Boston last year.
