TALK 0F THE CORRIDORS

Mt, A. IL McLean’s Reply to Hocken's Charges Iiegardetl as 0ne oi:-Best Speeches oi Session and an End oi Rumours Long in Circuation. 'Debate .Likely to

Continue all Week.

_ I. I...

(From our own Corroopondont.) OTTAWA, -Merch, 9.-The sole

topic of conversation in the corridors ot the House -Saturday was the com- plete manner in which H. C. Hocken's criticisms .oi the Civil ‘Service was demolished Iby Hon. A. K. McLean during Frinfly's sitting. Mr_ McLean went nt the tnslc in lwnqknranlike manner -and achieved n complete success.

(‘hnllent§iu.§ Ilocken to -put his

charges and innuondoes to the test of lnvestglation, Mr_ McLean proceed- sd -to sb/:xw`the whole _-indictment against the Conrmission was reared upon nothing more su-bstnntial than suterrnnenn gossip und 'misinformation with regard to facts, .dates iiigures.

With ofilclul memoranda nt, his dis-

posnl, he cnlrruly but mercilessly -look up llockenls statements. -dissecting them with the utmost precision, ex- posing their hollowness or fnbiacious- ness and quietly stating (acts. lr. was n very cnpeible -performance, tor, ul- though the tucts were nil against lioeken, lMr_ McLean mnrshelied his material splendidly in tine logical order, making ills case appear con- clusive beyond all doubt.

llocken, who remained in his sent throughout Mr. Mcbeanls entlre` speech, offered no interruptions, and when the Minister concluded, was among the number who approached htm -to otler lcongrstulations. Later in the evening Mr. Hccken issued n statement which, while claiming Mr. MacLean’s speech -had’ practically sustained his charges, -was rather an astonishing, if not on amazing enter- pretation. He made no reply to the Minister'-e offer of 11 :parliamentary inquiry. 'Mr_ .MacLean's defence ot the Civil Service Commission, and WDM- iuily oi Mr_ Foftan, to whose abilities ns at -public servant he paid n high tribute, .was lwell received .hy the' House, and, taken, all in all, the speech will unquestionably do much- tl00_d. For n long time there had been nil sorts of rumors in connection I with the Civil Service Commission. nnd Mr. ilicbenn undoubtedly dispeiiefl

:t lot of doubt and misinformation.

The situation. 'as it is now, is that it
