I have no information on the subject except what I read in the newspapers. Judge Cassels is the master of his own court, and it is for him to determine how he shall proceed.

Mr. GRAHAM.
I am endeavouring to get it, the order is a large one. I hoped to give it to the House when I was making some statement about the Grand Trunk Pacific and the Transcontinental. I thought that was the object of my hon. friend, to have it when the estimates came up. However, I can furnish it to him in advance as soon as I get it.
