Literary Forgeries. _i_W Yokk, June 2.—A " Sun's " London -pecial says:—A new method of literary ipersecution has come to light in London, tetters bearing the signature of Jchn Ruekin, the famous writer on art, recently _ppeared in great numbers in the news papers. The letters have treated of a •wonderful range of subjects, and all con tained certain characteristics of the great «r_tio, but most of them have displayed a tone of mingled petulance and arrogance ■which tended to the belief thafc the author -was getting querulous with advancing age. This flood ofletters on all conceivable sub jects attracted considerable attention. The mystery was solved to-day by a letter from Huskin- solicitors, whostatesthatthe letters are all forgeries, and they have discovered the manufactory from which they have emanated. They have traced 280 of these forgeries, including scores of .letters to newspapers, invitations to social friends, orders to tradesmen and florists for goodß, and even letters of introduction to famous artists. The motive of these forgers appears to have been pure mischief, as it cannot be ..earned that they have ever obtained a -billing's worth of goods or credit on the strength of Buskin's name, while, on the other hand, their expenditure for monogram paper, printed letter heads, postage, &o„ has been considerable.

PARLIAMENTARY GOSSIP.

(BY OUR SPECIAL REPORTER).

Wellington, this day, Salaries to Committee Chairmen.

When the Estimates come up for considera tion an effort will be made to get all salaries paid to the Chairmen of Committees struck out. This course has been prompted by a feeling that the Waste Lands Committee acted unfairly in ousting Mr Fulton to allow a salaried chairman to occupy his1 place. The object of the Police Offences Amend ment Bill, of which Mr Fisher has given notice is to enable tho local authority to close brothels, a power which does not exist at present iv towns that havo adopted the Contagious Disease Act. In Wellington tbe existence of disorderly brothels frequently causes great annoyance, and to stop tho nuisance a cumbrous legal process through the medium of the Supreme Court is necessary.

NO VOTE OF WANT OF CON FIDENCE.

A prominent Opposition member informs mo that if tho Government make reason-, able modifications in their tariff, which they seem quito inclined to do, there will bo no veto of want of confidence proposed or factious opposition raised during the pre sent session. -It is felt that even though a direct vote that the Government measures are unsatisfactory was carried, it would be impossible to form a stable Ministry from tho ranks of the Opposition with the pro sent constitution of the House, Mr Thom son's motion will meet with a good measure of support, though the opinion is, from the cause I havo meutioned, it will not be carried.

There is great dissatisfaction with regard to the duty of twopenco per lb on truit pulp imported for jam-making, tho opinion being that tho effect of tho proposed duty would be practically prohibitive. The " Times '.'suggests that the Treasurer should remodel his tariff by increasing the Property Tax to a penny in the pound. This, it says, would bring in an additional £90,000 without inflicting any very great hardship on anybody. Mr Tole will probably introduce the Auckland Harbour Bill to-morrow.

I saw Mr Stout with reference to tho modification of the tariff to-day, and asked whether the Government were likely to agree to. the proposed further increase of the Property Tax. He distinctly assured me that they considered the proposal of the increase of the tax to three farthings, as provided in the Financial Statement, went far enough. He could not seek to demo any further revenue from that source.

I think you can accept it as certain that tho coal duty will be consented to by tho House. A great majority of members are opposed to it,and Mr CGoVinor also, who is accredited With being the member who brought pressure to bear 'on the Gov ernment and Caused its insertion in the tariff, is 'dissatisfied with it in its present form, which is a taxation only of coal land in the colony, It will thus be seen that the Union Company and others, who are large consumers of coals for eea purposes, will escape the import. They can bring thoir coals from Newcastle and other foreign ports to tranship it direct into their steamers without landing.it.

During Saturday afternoon and yester day there were persistent rumours in circu lation to the effect that Mr Stout was about to retire from the Cabinet, and that on Mr Justice Prendergast retiring from the Chief Justiceship on a pension ho would bo appointed to the vacancy. Colour was lent to the story by the faot that it has been known for some timo past that tho Chief Justine is anxious to resign. As soon as the Ministers came down to the Government Buildings to-day, I made a round of tho offices, and Mr Tolo and others emphatically denied all knowledge of tho matter. Mr Stout himse.f gave it a most emphatic contradicttoh, and further stated that there wto no ground for the stories in circulation tbat thero was likely to h_ a dismemberment of the Cabinet.

An Auckland member, in the confidence of Major Atkinson, informed me this morn ing that there is no probability this session of a coalition between the Vogel hntt Atkinson sections, though many of both parties would like to see it brought about. He thinks it is quite en tho cards that next scssioh this will be brought about, and indeed hinted that there is a tacit understanding between tho Treasuror ondthe menibarforl_gmontnot_on.tcmpt. to disturb the present party lines till a more fitting opportunity than tho present arrives.

A meeting of members of Parliament, who aro also members of county council-, con • venod by Mr Lake, to consider the Counties Act, failed to como to any decision. There wero forty present. A meeting of members opposed to the tariff was bold this morning, and attonded by 25 persons ; 17 others were accounted for. B-th free traders and protectionists were present. The resolutions submitted by the Com mittee were unanimously endorsed. On the motion of Mr Smith, seconded by Mr lake, it was resolved that a deputation consisting of the Chairman (Pyke), and Secietary (Pearson), wait on tha. Governments.to__nlaco..the resolutions before them. Ah amendment moved ~>y Mr Peacocke, and seconded by _Jr (.arrick, tbat the Chairman be authorised to submit the resolutions in writing, and ask for an immediate reply, was negatived.

CAPSIZE NEAR WHANGAROA

Narrow Escape from Drowning.

On her last trip to Russell Rnd N6rthern ports, tho steamer Clansman was engaged towing ono of 'tho Kawakawa Coal Com pany's barges from Opawa to Whangaroa. There were on the barge Mr Pratt, second mate of the steamer, Mr Lane, of tho firm of Lane and Brown, shipbuilders, and a seaman named Anderson. The barge was towed by a stout hawser, and she had behind her one. of the Clansman's boats. Stormy weather was encountered, and when the steamer and barge were near the Cavallis the tow-rope parted. The barge swerved and filled with water, and all her occupants wore thrown Into tne sea. An dusa succeeded in cutting the boat adrift from the barge, aud all hands got on board ; not, however, before Mr Lane had been almost drowned. The men then got oa the Clansman, which resumed her voyage with out the barge, which is believed to be a total loss. - '

MELANCHOLY DEATH AT PONSONBY.

Dooeivod and Deserted,

A young woman named Margaret McQuoid, about 19 years of age, died yesterday after noon under most distressing circumstances. It appears that the unfortunate young woman was employed as a domestic servant at Mr| P. Lanigan's, Ponsonby Road. Mrs Lanigan states that she retired to her bed room about 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, and appeared then to be in the best of health. About 5 o'clock, it being nearly time for tea, Mrs Lanigan sent ono of the children to call Margaret, but she returned , with the news that the girl was not there, Tbe children then informed their mother i that they had seen the deceased going towards the closet a short time before they went to call her from the bedroom. Mrs Lanigan waited a little while, but as the girl made no appearance, she sent one of the children, who knocked at the door of the closet. Tbe child receiving no reply, tried the door,which was found to be looked. Under these circumstances, Mrs Lanigan deemed it advisable to call her husband. He obtained the assistance of a man named Joseph Riley, and they forced in the door. They were horrified at the eight which met their eyes. The unfortunate girl was sitting on the seat of the closet, quite dead. The floor was all covered with blood, amongst which a newly born infant was discovered, still alive, but very weak and cold from exposure. Mr Lanigan ot once sent td> the Ponsonby Police Station, and Constable Collis was quickly in attendance. In the meanwhile Mr Riley had proceeded to the^res-dence of Dr. Knight. Fortunately, he found that gontleman at homo, and he immediately returned with him. Dr. Knight states that it was 0 o'clock when lie was sent for. Ho at onco went to Mr Lanigan's residence. Ho found the deceased still sittingin the closet. She was quitodead, and had been so for Rome time. Ho con sidered that she had died from loss of blood, consequent upon want of attendance at the child's birth. Upon examining tho infant, he found it to be a girl, very small, weak, and quite cold from lying exposed on tho floor. The child was separated, evidently having been broken. It is improbable that the child will survive. The deceased's parents reside at Onehunga, and Constable Coiiis thoughtfully despatched a cab with the sad news, and the father of tho unfortunate woman immediately returned in the cab. His grief was naturally very great. His name is Thomas McQuoid, and he is well known in Onehunga, as he is a dairyman. It is rather a strange faot that neither Mrs Lanigan nor any of ber household had en tertained suspicion of tho condition of de ceased. ' Margaret McQuoid had only beon in Mr Lanigan's employ about live weeks. s,'ho Inquest The inquest commenced at 2.30 p.m. to day at tho Ponsonby Club Hotel, before Dr. Philson and a jury, of whom Cbas. Peters was chosen foreman. Mary Lantiigan, wife of Pierce Lannigan, contractor, Ponsonby Koad, deposed that deceased was in her employ for the last fivo weeks. Deceased's mother had told her that tho girl was about, nine teen years of age. Sho was strong and healthy, and always did her work as cook and junior domestic well. Deceased only complained once of being unwell. That was on tho second washing day, and was about three weeks ago. She complained of pains in her stomach. Witness gave hor some hot whisky which deceased said lelioved her. Sho then continued her work, and was never confined to bed. Witness last saw her alive yesterday about 3 p.m., when eho brought a cup and saucer into the kitchen to get wit ness a cup of tea, She (witness) told her sho would get it hereelf, and deceased went upstairs to hor bedroom to dress. The nursemaid, named Agnes Baron, occupied the same bedroom. At five o'clock witness cent One <"-f her children to csll deceased, but the boy could not find her. Witness then Eent the child into the yard to look for her. He returned saying ho could not find her. Witness then sent the boy to sco if she was in the water-closet. He came back and said tho dottr was locked, and that he could got tio answer when he Called. About ten minutes after, Witnesb went herself to the closet, but could neither opon the door nor get an answer. She then informed her hus band, who sent for a man named Joseph Riloy, Ho came, ond accompanied her husband to the "closet. They called, and getting no answer finally broko opon tho door. Witnes, stood at tho door of tho closet and saw a nowly born infant lying on tho floor; deceased was sitting on tho seat dead. They wont for Dr. Knight, who camo in a quarter of an hour, and pronounced lifo extinct. Thoro was a quantity of blood on tho closot floor. The deceased was not fully dressed. She bad on her stays, a whitcjca'.ieo petti coat, chemise, boots and pitocklng?. Witness never suspected that deceased was in such a condition, as she had always done her work well. Tho girl showed no signs of pregnancy. Sho heard no sound from tho closet between 3 and 5. She always took hor food well. Tho child waa alive. Deceased's figure was not nt all enlarged, and witness had often remarked that she was a good figure. 11 r Knight deposed that ho Was called to sco deceased about six o'clock yesterday, and fou-n'd hor quite dead. Tho -ox tre.aitlea._ol the body woro cold, but the parts covered by thecfothos wero still warm, the hands were cold and black, not stiff. The appearance of the deceased was per fectly blanched and bloodless. Pierce Lannigan was tbo noxt witness. Ho doposed to the finding of the body. The police do not intend to bring any ovidett-ee as to the paternity of the chad.

SAMOAN NEWS

Tho Sohoonor Olive Twice Ashoro,

News from Samoa by the Zealandia shows that everything has been very quiet there for some time. The master of Messrs McArthur and Co.'s schooner Olive writes coirecting th. report that his vessel was on a reef at Fasilootai, whero she merely touched a sandbank, and was floated off without injury. Since then, however, he records having had two very narrow escapes from wreckage. She arrived at Vavau (Samoa) via Keppel's Islands on Juno 3, nnd dropped anchor, after which, without five minutes' warning, a terrific squall came down from the S.E. The Olive dragged hor anchor and _s.fa.hom chain, also a kedgo and 100 fathom line, and touched the shoro. A lino was, however, made last to the Company's buoy, and by this means tho schooner was floated off. Sho was then inspected by a diver, who reported that sho had lost 12ft. of her false keel, and that no othor damage had been sustained. After this, very bad weather prevailed. On Juno 17 another very heavy squall was experienced, and tho bottom being hard, the Olive again dragged anchor, paid-ell, and went broadsido on to tho roof. She was got off again next tide, after having dis charged a few tons of copra. Tho diver reported that tho ve-sol on thin occasion recoivod no injury,
