Ottawa, March 16.â€" This was Inâ€" © tercolbnial Railwey uudget day _ in â€"the House of Conenons, and, though physically indisposed, the _ Minister of Railways rose to the occasion in a masterly speech, the feature _ of which was a pronouncement in regard to the proposed changes in the mimâ€" ageméent of the Government road, which have excited si much speculaâ€" tion and controversy. Not u comâ€" mission, but a boatd of management wléomposed of two ol the present ofâ€" ficials of the LC.R., Mr. Butler, the Deputy Minister of Railwa,s, and a man with practical experience . cf othor ~railways, who would be . reâ€" sponsible through the Minister to the Government of the day, is the soluâ€" tion of the Intercolonial problen: faâ€" voréd by Mr. Graham, who offered it to the House more as a suggestion to be considered than as a policy definâ€" itely determined upon. His objections "to a‘ ‘coimmission were twoford. | He was not prepared to admit that the Crown, given proper ineans, could not manage a railway, and he did not belfeve that the country would favor the rua of the Gavernment relieving itself" of _ responsibility for the manâ€" agement of a railway which had teen entrusted to it.

A NEW RINK gested would not mu.i_ze the Governâ€" ment of responsibility, but it would relieve <the Department of Rallways of a multitude of details, and would, in his view, be a good thing for the railway and for all concerned. Dealing with the $40,000 byâ€"law Mr. Breithaupt stated that when the estimates .were first submitted to the Commiission by the Hydroâ€"Electric engineers the sum of $54,000 was reâ€" commended. The Commission considâ€" eréd this gmount to be top large and further estimates were made and two selemes were submitted. _ One was to use rotary conyerters and _ freâ€" quengy changer with the other _ apâ€" patus required would_cost, approxiâ€" ; $46,000,00: The ~second . arâ€" rahgt t .usieg ‘the: present machinâ€" ery‘ and driving it with synchronous etors would cost approximately as follows:â€" .

Breithaupt of the Light Commission was ptesent and briefly explained the two byâ€"laws. Reâ€" garding the byâ€"law for the ‘new gas mains he stated that the gas plant is large enough to supply an. increased muinber of consumets, but in order to reach them it was essential that ‘new mains of a darger size be _ laid in ‘diffierent parts of the town. It is proposed to «put‘dewn sitâ€"inch mains instead* of: threeâ€"inch on portions of King street from Water to Victoria, from Albert to Frederick, from Breitâ€" haupt to Shanley, on Queen _ from Weber to Ellen, and from the works to Queen and Mill streets. The pipes taken up will be used in other parts of ‘the town. Mr. Breithaupt pointed out that the larger portion of this money will be paid out to laborers. At the adjoutrmed _ mecting of the Town C il on Tuesday evening, at which . all , members were present excepting Alds. Wilkinson, Winterhalt and Sheppard the first and _ second reading was given to the byâ€"laws to vaise $40,000 for the porchase of maâ€" chinery fox the distribution of _ Niaâ€" gara Power when it is transmitted to Berlin, and the sum of $8000 for layâ€" ing hew gas mains ©mother opportunity. of: ; Â¥oting _ on Easter Monday,, Aprit 13th, on the byâ€"Jaws for=the purchase of â€" Niagara power machinery and for laying largâ€" er gas maily, which were defeated at ‘the last municipal elections.

Mr. Breithaupt said that he â€" was assured by Hon. Adam sHeck a few days ago that Niagara power would be delivered in Berlin by Jan. Ist next year and it was important that this town be ready to deliver it to the consumers. The great argument in favor of Niagara power was its cheapness and by voting for the byâ€" law it would not be necessary . to come to the electors for additional money to increase the plant as there would be sufficient power available from the Niagara Falls. He pointed out that to increase the capacity of the plant by 250 units it would cost in the neighborhood ol $50,000. â€"In reply to Ald. Martin Mt. Breitâ€" haupt stated that the reason the amount of the byâ€"law was _ increased from $35,000 to $40,00v was on. acâ€" dcount of the increase of the price of material, owing to the large .. comâ€" tracts given out: by tlie Hydroâ€"Elecâ€" tric Commission: â€" Here‘s to ould Treland, the home ay my childhood; Here‘s to the shamrock, that grows on her shore, It‘s long since I saw the hills â€" ay Killarney, But, och, how I love them, Erin asthore! it provide for transformers for manuâ€" facturers motors, The cost of _ the line between the step down and disâ€" tributing station will depend _ upon the location of the step down _ staâ€" tion.

Nothing was thought ‘of the incident until after the news ol the murder was published, â€" when the description of the murderer _ as given by Florence Kinrade struck her as being essentially the same as that of the man who had addressed himâ€" self to her on the train. _ Fearing publicity, Miss Isaacs said pothing for a while, but later repeated the story to members of the family.
