O Shea s it is probably no body. London april Serosa tidal Rumor is afloat to Day in the lobby of the House of commons to the effect that Parnell has been privately married since the o Shea diverse proceedings and not to mrs. O Shea. Par Kellites who have been questioned on Bhe subject refuse to discuss it but they aay that Bhe mystery of their Leader s inner life often referred to As tending to Clear his character from the stain upon it will shortly be explained. London april relations of or. Parnell and mrs. O Shea have been rendered d More mysterious than Ever by recent reports. No declaration has yet been made by or. Parnell himself or by any Parson authorized to speak for either of the persons concerned that they Are to be married when the divorce is made absolute. That period is near it hand and the friends of both Are anxious that Tho Ambi Noua situation Shoa old be cleared up. The state of affairs Hail led do the springing up of a crop of rumours Damag ing to the reputation of Bhe gentleman and the lady already so much compromised. These various stories Frith More or less foundation culminated in the report yesterday that the marriage with mrs. O3hea would not take place As or. Pamell Hod already often married to another lady. Astonishment waa increased to Day by the Rumor that Bho lady in question is a daughter of mrs. O Shea and that the marriage took place in secret because among other reasons the Young lady was a Ward in chancery. The latter Story spread rapidly in the lobbies of the House of commons and is eagerly and variously discussed but it finds few believers. London april eager curiosity aroused by the report that or. Parnell Hai been secretly married to mrs. O shei e daughter is sharpened by succeeding failure on the part of or. Parnell s friends and opponents alike to obtain any information whatever As to the truth or falsity of t tie Rumor. The Parnel Lites Are tilled with Hope that the Story is True believing that it will explain his conduct during the trial of Fie divorce suit against mrs. O Shea and enable them to cover him with u neat Coata of Whitewash pleasing to the eyes of wavering nationalists. Tho most trusted of or. Farnell s colleagues profess profound ignorance of any relations whatever Between or. Parnell and the Young lady and the most bitter of his enemies Are equally in the dark. Capt. O Shea scornfully ridicules the St declaring his belief that there has never been the Elighes foundation for Buch a statement. Oil soaked Sands. The recently discovered Petroleum id.

And beyond All this Tho doctor came to the conclusion that As the Sand waa so heavily saturated with Petroleum the Petroleum itself must at one time existed in Large quantities and further that it More thai Likely exists even the Athabasca District being a vast Reservoir so full that it bad to overflow. This being so id Worth the government s attention and he accordingly reported upon it urging the government to take some stops towards ascertaining the Rezac state of affairs there. Since that time the matter has been brought tinder notice in various shapes. It has been pointed put tha if Petroleum exists there in Quantity it would be a great Boon for the Northwest and Mani Toba which have to bring their Oil Al the Way from British Columbia or Western Ontario.

Monday s Toronto Empire Days editorially a is reported thab the harsh treatment of the Canadian fishing Versele by the newfound and authorities a altogether out of keeping with the solemn pledges of the government i the sister Colony made Over three years when in 1887 the Newfoundland legislature passed the bait act with the design of preen Ting foreign fishing vessels from purchasing is Ito in Newfoundland Porta the measure waa reserved for the Royal assent. The Canadian i government represented in Theston Yeatman Ner possible the grave injustice which that act would do to British and Canadian Fibber men who had heretofore enjoyed the priv in common with the fishermen of the in itch Staten of purchasing bait in bund land Porta and who enjoyed that priv leg e when it wan refused to United states i Sherroan under the terms of the convention f 1818. No Colony in British North America lad Ever attempted to discriminate a dins the fishermen of the sister colonies. When Janada therefore intervened Between the bait Bill adj Bhe Royal assent her majesty did nod give her assent until Tho attorney general of Newfoundland and the Newfoundland government had pledged themselves in the most it Nib Atic manner possible both to the Canadian government and to the colonial that this if allowed would not be enforced against British or Canadian men. The Newfoundland government attempted to negotiate a treaty with the United states in Iha fall of lost year by which the Island government bound themselves to lower duties an flour beef pork Bacon and agricultural implements coming from the United Ana to give the United states finning vessels right to All their port privileges including the Purchase of bait free of duty or a fee of any kind. Canada promptly intervened and pointed out to the Imperial government that this discrimination proposed by a British Colony in favor of a foreign nation against another British Colony waa fran ghz with grave consequences to the integrity of the British Empire in North America and involved the violation of a principle Sac redly observed Between All the colonies and great Britain viz., that the Colony should Dis Criminate against the Mother country j hence her majesty s government was induced to refuse Sanction to this treaty. Apparently exasperated by Canada a representations. Newfoundland Nintendo not Only to continue to violate the pledge Given to the government of Canada bub to. Grant Privi Leges to american fishermen which Are denied to those of the Dominion so that in effect while the United states Tariff imposes heavy duties upon the fish that Canada or Newfoundland May Send to the United states from the Banks Newfoundland intends to add to this great Handicap against her own fishermen and those of Canada the further Concession of her Porte at a Boer of operations of american Fia Henahen and which Are to be denied to Canadian fishermen despite the convention of 1818. The c Madura government a of Tho Opi Oiom that Tho British parliament under such circumstances should promptly repeal the bait act its allowance in the first instance stated above having been be cured Only upon express Btu pulsation that it lao not to apply to Canad Ian fishermen Aud Newfoundland having been guilty of an unparalleled breach of i tits both with the Imperial and the Canadian govern ments.
