Speak Out la Ilia laoadiaa Parliament. OnowA, Ont., May 2. In the house yesterday Laurier, leader of the oppo-sition, arraigued the government for the insulting 'epithets whtoh Kir John MeDouald and othur members of the cabinet had showered upou the United States during the rcceut campaign. The result of the recent elections, he held, was practically a victory for the liberal party aud their policy of unre-stricted reciprocity. Sir John iu reply said the govern-ment had every reason to congratulate themselves for the manner iu which tho country repudiated the liboral party and their policy of annexation. Ho re-gretted tho loss of suveral of his sup-porters who bad falleu in battle, but the defeat was duo to the McKiuley bill and not to any charges that could be directly brought against tho govern-ment. Cartwright characterizes the whole course of the government as one calcu-lated to exasperate the and irritate the United States against Canada, and that it was to be regretted that Sir John had not seen tit to withdraw the unfriendly references he made to that great repub, lie, in place of stating tbat he would stand by what he had said. The con-du-of the Canadian government in has almost drawn the Uuited States into a commercial war ugriust the do-minion, as bal subsequently bad been found out by Tupper. The liberal party had repeatedly urged he adoption of some measure that would lead to a possible com-mercial intercourse between Canada aud tho United States. There was one of few things certain to occur, free trade with the United States or a prac-tical suspension of all commercial in-tercourse with the republic by tho atti-tude toward the United States. The insults that had been heaped upon the ti.VOOO.OUU people of the great republic to lliu south of the dominion has aroused a spirit of hostility toward Canada iu the United States whose President Harrison or Secretary lilaine could not ignore. Sir John McDonald had denounced everyone who voted for the liberal party and unrestricted reciprocity as aunexionist and according to this theory and the result of the recent elec-tions over one-hal- f of the population of Canada were in favor of political al-liance with the United States. If an-nexation was ever to become alive issue in Canada it would bo throngh the acts of the present administration who had precipitated such a state of affairs in the country. ' Minister of Finance Foster was not in position to define the government's po-sition in regard to the negotiations at Washington, but would ask the house to wait patiently until the correspon-dence was brought down, when , it would be seen they acted in the best interests of the country and he would say however, that the government con-sidered the treaty of 18o4 a fair treaty ahke to Canada, aurias'nited btat.'S.

Ho said that little of tho flannel used in the manufacture of tennis suits was produced in this country, us the factory owners up to tho present time have found it unprofitable. Cheap Ihiuml, however, an imitation of tho Lnglish ar-ticle, is made all over the United States, and where possible it is sold us the gen-uine article. "Practically, all of tho white flannel used," said he, "in the making ( f flan-nel suits for tennis, cricket and other outdoor costumes is imported from Eng-land. Only the best qualities aro used by reputable dealers, and the best quali-ties are all subjected to a shrinking pro-cess unknown in tho manufacture of common goods. Tho reason for this is that the flannels require more cleaning than any other material while in the tailor's hands. Cheap flannels would warp and draw all out of shape the mo-ment the wearer happens to wet them. "The shrinking process is carried on mostly in the West Lml of London by the most experienced cloth workers. "The flannels are placed between heavy wet sheets first, and left in that position from twenty-fou- r to thirty-si- x hours. When removed they are spread out on specially prepared rails in a dry-ing room heated by hot steam pipes, whero they aro allowed to reuiuiu until thoroughly dry. "The next process is to place the lengths of the flannel in fold? .between layers of glossy paper and imbjocteil to a pressing by hydraulic machines. "The more pressure they are subjected to the more valuable aud heavier the flannel becomes. "There is a largo sale of the cheap' material iu America, and fur that very reason there are so many complaints mado against flannel clothing. A cheap whito suit becomes a burden to tho pur-chaser within a week after he bus begun to wear it It loses shape, and, although mado for a largo man, after the lir.st wash it will comfortably fit a medium sized boy."New York Herald.
