QUESTIONS In answer to questions It was stated that enquiry would be made into the cause of the fire which took place on the ss. Rimutaka on her late voyage be tween London and New Zealand ; that Government- oould not see their way to adjourn to-morrow night on account of General Booth's meeting; that the Shop and Shop Assistants Act Amendment Bill would be brought down and dealt with as soon as the state of pnblic business permitted ; that it was almost impossib'e to put the whole of the civil seivice on an equal footing, and to pay them proportionate salaries ; that Government knew of no necessity for further banking legislation thia session. In reply to Mr Earnahaw, Mr Ward said the instructions of April 29, 18P3, directing that precedence be given to telegrams pasting between Mr Ward and his firm at Invercargill was entered in a book which was kept in the operating room in the Wellington office and no where else. In reply to Captain Russell, Mr Seddon said it was impossible for Government to decide as to the vacancy in the Supreme Court bench before next sitting of the Appeal Court- The Chief Justice had been applied to for further information, and when that was forthcoming Govern ment would decide whether or not there was any necessity for a fifth Judge. The Public Works Statement would be brought down nest we*k, and Government were anxious to bring the session to a close as aoon as possible. The adjournment of the House was moV'-d, and a debate lasting until 5.30 took place on the varicua subjects opened iup by the answers given to questions. The House resumed at 7.30 p.m. THIRD HEADINGS

After farther debate the Government Advances to Settlers Act Amendment Bill, and the Land and Income Assess ment Acb Amendment Bill were put through their final stages On the motion for the third reading of the Land for Settlement Act Amendment Bill the Minister of Lands said that the remarks he had made on the second reading of this Bill wera misconstrued for a purpose. He never intended to reflect on the member for Hawke's Bay in any ahape or form. He had only wished fco defend himself from the charge fchafc hia land policy was responsible for the troubles of the Bank of New Zealand. He received no information whatever from any of the officers of the bank, and he knew nothing aboat the private accounts of the bank Captain Russell was glad to have the Minister's assurance that he did not in tend to refer to the members of the Opposition. There could be no doubt, however, thafc there had been continual assertion on the part of tha Minister of Lands that unless the Opposition held their tongues he would make certain dis closures. The fact was that Mr Mc- Kenzie had nothing to disclose and it was only one of his usual threats. He (Captain Russell) contended that the land^pollcy of the Government had been injurious, not only to the Bank of Sew Zealand, bat to the landed estate through out the colony, and the Opposition were perfectly justified in saying that the land policy of the Government had materially affected the prosperity of the bank . After farther debate the third reading of the Bill was agreed to on the voices, and the Bill passed The House rose at 1 15 am.

Rifle Shooting.

Wellington, October 9 The New Zealand team in the inter colonial Parliamentary rifle match was fired to-dayatthePolhill Gully range. The weather was against good shooting, the wind being strong and very gusty. The following are

THE DEAN CASE.

fc"yj>NEY, October 9 Another sensation, probably the firm), was sprung upon the public this afternoon by the Attoraey-General producing a confession made by-Dean., The latter admitted that he had been guilty of perjury, and that he did attempt to kill his wife, and that he obtained both arsenic and strychnine from the chemist Smith, who, Dean says, withheld the evidence of his guilt at Mr Meagher's instigation. Subse quently Dean confessed to Mr Meagher in the corridor of the condemned cell, i and it is added that no one except Meagher and Green (clerk to Crick and Meagner) knew of the confession. The whereabouts of Green, who is regarded as an important witness in the Dean conspiracy case, cannot at present be ascertained.

Dean was remanded till to-morrow on a charge of perjury in making a recent statutory declaration. He maintains a sto'id demeanour.

Melbourne. October 9

The Argus says that the conviction of Meagher and his removal from the roll will conspicuously demonstrate the rule that there is no professional conceal ment of crime, and that the idea will be dispelled that guilty men can consult solicitors, and both, knowing; of guilt, can concoct plans for outraging justice. It adds that after he had received j Dean's confession there was no call for Meagher to act in the case, but every day he appeared before the Commission and charged a woman with the crime, every day there was organised hypro crisy. The Agfi considers that the confession shows the incompetence and worthless ness of the Commission, and the danger of placing too much confidence in the ebullitions of popular feeling. IOBAT'i CABIBftRIMS.

Sydney, October 10 The confession was obtained by Messrs Goddard and Moodie, members of the Defence Committee, who visited Dean in gaol early in the morning. They impressed upon him that tho Committee had done all they could, and in justice to them he should tell the truth. A most; affecting scene followed. Hitherto, under all circum stances, Dean has conducted himself as an innocent man, but when this appeal was made he completely collapsed. The veins stood out on his forehead like whipcord, and perspiration poured down his face. For a moment he looked bewildered, and then in a gasp of agony said solemnly—" I am a guilty man." He described how he got the poisons, and said he placed each in a bottle of lemon syrup, but denied putting any into his wife's tea or groats. Being asked his reason for putting it in syrup, he said he really could not say. The remainder of the poison he placed in a matchbox and threw away, When he made the con fes-ion to Meagher, the latter asked him to keep it secret. Meagher, on his part, voluntarily promised not to divulge it as long as he lived, It is understood that notwithstand ing Meagher's confession the Crown will proceed with the case against Mr Crick.

The question ha? arisen whether Dean, having obtained bis pardon through fraud, it is not void. The matter has been referred to several eminent lawyers, and upon their de cision it will probably depend whether the pardon shall be reviewed, and Dean left to serve out the life sentence to which the death penalty was commuted by the Executive. The Herald says the end of the gloomy drama is most appropriate. Never in the denouement of the most powerful tragedy was the authority of truth and justice more impressively vindicated than in the Dean case. By making his confession Dean deprived his supporters of the last excuse for their pathetic trust in his innocence. The full and pitiless glare of daylight has now been thown on the last dark corner of the enormous collection of fraudj falsehood, and popular credulity. The paper eulogises Sir Julian Salomons and the Attorney-General.

Mr Meagher utterly denies Dean's statement that he kept silence in re ference to the confession at the insti gation of his lawyer. He says it was exactly the other way about. The electors have asked Mr Meagher to allow himself to be renominated, but he replied " Irrevocably, no." Mr Orick denies that any clerk of the name of Green was in his office. One of that ! name sometimes called to see Meagher, but for reasons of his own Mr Orick declined to allow him to enter his office. Green is the fourth man to be arrested, but the police have been un successful in tracing him.

Cattle Thus-pass — Two cases against B. Kane were dismissed. Maintenance—-An order was made by consent for two sons to pay 10s per wotk between thi-.m towards the support of their father, Nathaniel Davis —Annie O Kanu v John < -'Kiine— An ihe wile refused to go b ick and live with her husband, who professed to be willing to take her back and treat her kindly, an existing order for maintenance was rescinded. Cruelty to Animals—John Clark, for brutally kicking a dog to death, was sentenced to one month's imprisonment.

Civil Cases—Judgment was given for plaintiffs, with costs, in J. Moison v F Goodwin, 8s; H. Zander v John McLymonfc, £12 10s ; judgment went by default in Craighead and Berryman v J Gallagher, £3-F. W. Hanraor v H. W. Btrret', 18s for timber delivered in error. Mr Crisp for plaintiff. Phintitf stated he had offered to settle out of c..urt for 10s, as there had been a mistake. Wit nesses gave evidence as to the delivery of the timber, and defendant's refusal to .surrender the surplus. Defendant asked for an adjournment, and considerable amusement was caused by his conduct of his case. His Worship s*id there was no doubt defendant had had the goods, and refused to pay. Judgment would be for plaintiff for amount claimed and costs.

The Bankruptcy Act—Cleveland Oondell Ross was charged with having failed to keep proper books of account, and with having obtained goods on credit at a time he had no prospect of paying for thara. Mr Wilding appeared for the Deputy Assignee, and Mr Deacon, with Mr Crisp, for accussed.—Mr Wilding slid the evidence w uld be short, as Ross admitted, in his public examira'ion, that he had not kept books. As to the other charge, he admitted before Judge Ward that he had no property ; it was all in his wife's name. He also admitted that at the time of incurring a debt to Mr Barry man, he owed more than he co^d ever h >pc to pay. (Mr Deacon —Himaelf.) Although the farm was in Mrs Ross 1 name, all the proceeds and profits were paid into credit of accused in the bank, J. R. Colyer, clerk to the District Court proved the bankruptcy on July 1, 1895, and produced and read the judgea' notes of the public examination on September 13, signed by accused. The evidence given in the case the hearing of which lasted a long tLtie, was similar to that which we ga^e at length in the bank ruptcy proceedings before Judge Ward, an*! after it had been taken, fend counsel heard, his Worship said he was of opinion that Ross believed he had a reasonable prospect of being able to pay his debts. The books Ross kept were not sufficient, and he had broken the letter of the law. The ends of justice would be served if a conviction were recorded, and the accused discharged, which was done.
