Hon, A. McCoNACHIR and Mr. Chairman. Ladies and gentleman, Mr. Francie bak erably and fully expressed our gna horror and Indigestion. at the brutal, cold-blooded murder of our for Neo alve entrymen and countrywoman, that little remain for any one coming after him to say. I am sure the indigeation of all present here today, when firet they heard of this terriblo, mengore. rous to boiling point, I know mine did. Idonot of cenzas know what steps our Government may take in' this dreadful matior, but I hops they will be wch as shall prove a lesson to the Chiunse in
··futors and make it quite olear to them that the Hys of British subjects cannot be stoned for by money. With theen for remarks I beg lo seoond the resolution proposed by Mr Franois. (Applane)
Mr. MASTER-May I be permitted to angg-st an amendment in the nature of an addition in the tant remolation ? There has been a good deal said about the outrages and on to the innafolnay of the compenmtică. I believe that the sam Pestion hitherto has been considered in the icient if det, ont in money. Now, I think that it should be added to this resolation that this meeting is of opinion that money. compensation is wholly inadequate. I beg to propose an amandment by way of addition to this resolution in the following words " Aud that in the opinion of this meeting money cam- pensation in wholly inadequate redress for out- mages of such is mature and that the position demands swift and stora sssures by the British Gorerament." (Ioad and prolonged applauss).
The CHAIRMAN-I inderstand that Mr. Francis is willing to nocept this proposed amend. meat a part of his resolution, and, therefore, lo- stead of moving the resolution and then the amondment, the more convenient cares will be that the addition be proposed by Mr. Franels as part of his own resolution.
