Washington had been practically nulli
fied, and abrogated upon the refusal or
denial of the rights of American citizens
in Canadian ports. Upon this proposi
tion there was a division on
party lines, resulting in its defeat,
5 to 6. When the question
came up on ordering a favorable report
on the substitute bill, however, there
was not a negative vote.
The Republican members do not ex
pect that the bill will meet any opposi
tion from their side of the House when
called up, although the proposition re
jected to-day may be renewed and serve
as the basis"of some speeches in which
the position will be taken that the
President already has sufficient power to
do what he desires in tho way of re
taliation.

A KICK. AUAINST BENEDICT.
Tbe minority Keport on the Public
Printing; Investigation.
Washington, August 30. —Representa-
tive Gal linger has completed his minority
report upon the result of the investiga
tion of tbe Printing Committee of the ad
ministration of the Government Printing
Office. The report is bitterly critical of
the Public Printer Benedict and the ma
jority of the Committee. The report de
fends Mr. Rounds' administration as hon
orable and conscientious and able, and
declares that enough violations of law
and evidences cf incompetency have been
shown by the testimony to warrant the
immediate removal from office of Mr.
Benedict.
A large part of the report treats of pri
vate works done at the Government
Printing Office. Among other things it
is said that the testimony shows beyond
doubt that a series of speeches made by
President Cleveland in various cities on
his famous trip in autumn of 1887, had
been printed in advance in the Govern
ment Printing Office, in clear violation of
the law.
The Minority declare that for the first
time in the history of the Government
Printing Office, that vast workshop has
been turned into a political machine.
Men are being discharged solely because
they are Democrats.

I Associated Press Dispatches to the Herald]
Toronto, Ont., August 30.—Five
thousand persons assembled at Haser*
ville, Ont., yesterday to listen to political
addresses by Sir Hector Langevin, Min
ister of Public Works, and Sir John
Thompson, Minister of Justice. The
speeches of both Ministers were fraught
with significance, being the first public
utterances of the Ministers of the Gov
ernment since President Cleveland's re
taliatory threats. Sir Hector Langevin
sketched the history of the Fisheries
dispute, showing that the United States
fell back on the treaty of 1818 of their
own accord, and that Canada was main
taining her just rights. After a great deal
of labor to adjust the differences amicably
by treaty the United States Senate frus
trated the efforts which had been made;
then President Cleveland followed that
up with a threat to punish Canada.
What for? Because there is no
treaty is not Canada's fault !j The Presi
dent wanted to stop Canadian goods from
coming over American railways in bond,
because American fishermen are not per
mitted to bond their fish over Canadian
railways; but that right with others was
given up by the Americans long ago in
consideration of the Labrador
fishing advantages. These ad
vantages she had and would not
give up, while a right to bond was de
manded without concession. Canada
made many concessions. The United
States could not expect to have all the
conceding on Canada's side. He respect
ed the dignity of the United States, and
he he was sure they all did, but Canada
had honor and dignity as a Nation, and
as a part of the British Empire, and no
true Canadian was disposed to lower
Canada's position.
Referring to unrestricted reciprocity,
he said it was a sugar-coated commercial
union. While discussing President
Cleveland's message, he said the Can
adians should remain calm and collected.
If their neighbors got excited, they
should consider the time at which their
neighbor's excitement existed. They
should not resent too much the hard
names and hard words spoken against
Canada. Canada was a great country,
territorially as large or larger than the
United States. They had different institu
tions, some of which at least are better,in
his opinion, than those of the United
States. The Government of Canada had
been responsible to her people, which
was not the case in the United States.
Was it not much better to have the
Ministry directly responsible to the peo
ple, so that when wrong-doing and mis
management prevailed the people could
turn the Ministers out?
Sir John Thompson said: The Liberal
leaders had been starring through the
Province of Ontario, but all their efforts
were in vain. An evil genius was pursu
ing them. They had been preaching a
new gospel, proclaiming that the only
salvation for Canadians was to adopt un
restricted reciprocity, but even while they
were preaching about better trade rela
tions, the President of the United States
and the Senate took council together to
find out the best way to harrass Canada
most with the least injury to their own
country. There was- little prospect of
getting any advantage from the United
States when its representative showed
such hostility, but he was sincere
ly glad at the good the President's
message had done in this country.
It had evoked a national spirit
which speaks through the press
and the people of both political parties.
The citizens of Canada were in no mood
to submit to the dictation of any foreign
power. The Liberal press in Toronto and
Montreal was very plain in its state
ments. He admitted that the President
of the United States was a great states
man, that he was at the head of a great
nation, and that the words he uttered
were of great responsibility. The policy
of this country should bo one of great
prudence and a desire to conciliate rather
than irritate, to be friendly rather than
unfriendly with any power in the world;
but this was also a great country. All
her citizens did not labor at developing
her resources. Many Canadians looked
to the trackless sea for their living, and
when the rights of their fishermen were
imposed upon it was their duty to up
hold their rights and the honor of the
country. All that was held up as a rea
son for non-intercourte was Canada's re
fusal to permit American fishermen to
send their catch of fish in bond over
Canadian railways to the United States.
The United States chose themselves to
go back to the treaty of 1818, and its pro
visions are being enforced. There is
nothing unfriendly in that. That their
conduct in seizing American vessels bad
not been harsh, was borne out by the
support of the British government on in
quiry into every case. The United
States in 1818 gave up the right to fish
within the three miles limit; American
fishermen were to have no commercial
privileges on the Canadian shore. They
could not salt their fish or buy supplies.
They could only enter the harbors incase
of storm or to make repairs, but the renun
ciation of these privileges, bought by giv
ing American fishermen the right to fish
along the coast of Labrador and Magda
lene Island, and now they wish to hold
on to this privilege while they will not
give up the old one. The means of re
taliation proposed was the withdrawal of
the privilege to bond good 3 through the
United States to Canada. This privi
lege was secured to us by Ar
ticle 29 of the Washington
treaty, and it required two years'
notice by the terms of that treaty before
any article could be suspended. No no
tice of that kind had been given, and
Cleveland, regardless of the sacred
obligations of the treaty proposed to end
this privilege without notice and at a
single stroke. If, as Laerier, the leader
of the opposition, said at St. Thomas the
other day, our carrying trade is going to
be much injured, does not that show how
great a folly it would be to have com
mercial arrangements' with the United
States ? Did you ever see a man who,
when his hcuse was on fire, wished bis
house larger and his loss greater? If we
make the proposed arrangement, the
next time we get in the whirl of Ameri
can politics every vital interest of
ours will be sacrificed to win the
votes of a few wards in the city
of New York. The President's message
is the interruption that puts a fatal
mark across the page of unrestricted re
ciprocity, and leads'the people of Ontario
to believ that after all with all the cries
of a runioas national policy, the policy of
the development of this country, of mak
ing it a united country from the Atlantic
to the Pacific, the policy which enables
Canada to say: "We can live without
American railways and steamship lines;
we Jean live in comparative comfort even
if the United States will not deal with us
or trade with us at all," that all this is a
much better policy for this country than
to hand over its destinies to a people
to sacrifice them to their own political
interests.
DEEP WJtTEB.
Shall Texas Have One or Two
Deep Water Harbors?
Denver, August 150.—The Committee
on Resolutions of the Deep Water Con
vention was in session nearly all last
night aud all this morning until 10:30,
when Governor Thayer called the Con
vention to order. After some routine
work a motion was adopted that after the
final adjournment of this Convention it
may be called together by a majority of
the Vice-Presidents, giving thirty days'
notice, and that when the Convention
next meets it shall be at Topeka, Kansas.
The Committee on Resolutions being
called for, Judge Hancock, of Texas, read
the majority report, which demanded the
establishment of one deep water harbor
on the northwest coast of the Gulf of
Mexico, and that all the Senators, Rep
resentatives and delegates in Congress be
requested to procure the necessary ap
propriation to complete the work.
Senator Houston, of Texas, presented
the minority report, which, in substance,
urges Congaess to appoint a board of en
gineers to locate a harbor at the most
suitable point, and the adoption of all
necessary means to secure appropri
ations to complete the work. The re
port endorses the effort of private en
terprise to secure a deep water
harbor on the Texas coast, and
pledges the influence of the Convention
to induce the Government to reimburse
persons engaged ih the enterprise. It
further approves the idea of securing
deep water at Arkansas Pass-by private
capital, and asks Congress for protection
in the prosecution of the work and to
reimburse citizens engaged in it.
Ex-Governor Gibbs, of Texas, Intro
duced a resolution which was moved to
be adopted as a substitute for both.
After a short preamble, it urges upon
Congress the necessity of two deep-water
harbors, one ou the east and one on the
west coast of the Gulf, and asks Congress
to locate both and. make the necessary
appropriations for their speedy comple
tion. All were earnestly supported by
the gentlemen introducing them. The
merits of each grew so warm that it ran
into personalities and for a few moments
it seemed that the Convention would
break up in a row. Governor Thayer
finally secured order and the Convention
adjourned until 8 o'clock.
It reassembled at 8 o'clock and the
discussion on the majority and minority
re ports lasted until midnight, when the
Convention adopted tho majority report
and adjourned until 11 to-morrow.

A NEIGHBORLY QUARREL.
Toe milkman M a* the Cause of the
Disturbance.
Mrs. Mary Rogers and her daughter
Rose occupy No. 421 West Seventh j
street, and let the upper floor to Samuel
Patterson and his wife. Yesterday the
two families appeared in Justice King's
court to fight out a charge of battery
which was recently preferred against the
Pattersons. The latter were in the habit
of having milk and groceries sent upstairs
to their rooms, au arrangement which w as
said to be displeasing to Mrs. Rogers.
On the night of the 27th Mr. Patter
son went out the front door and dis
covered the milkman waiting to get in.
He called out "milk," and the vender
was about to pass in when Mrs. Rogers,
who had been waiting in the parlor
armed with a cane to use iv putting a
stop to this practice, rushed to the screen
door and looked out. Thereupon Sirs.
Patterson came down the stairs and the
mill began. Accordiug to the Rogerses
the Pattersons knocked them out, and
according to the Pattersons it was the
Rogerses who did the business for them.
Each side swore to all the par
ticulars, giving plenty of corrobo
rative detail. The only disinter
ested witness was the milkman, and
each side claimed that his evidence
would settle the case in their favor. All
held their breath when the milkman's
name was called, but he failed to put in
an appearance, and the case had to be
continued for another day.- The charge
against Mrs. Patterson was dismissed.
An Officer's Difficulty.
Officer McGrath had a little difficulty
with a Chinaman last evening which is
behind in police circles to have some pe
culiar significance. The Chief had been
I advised by the Mayor to suspend Mc-
Grath, pending investigation. The offi
cer states in his own behalf that the only
reason which could be assigned for this
was that he had acted roughly towards
an insolent Chinaman. The latter had
openly taunted him with the fact that he
could secure his dismissal from the force
whenever he saw fit to do so. The Chief
thought best to take no action at present.
