Dec 19.Ex-Prcmier Mcrcierj-csterday made public the interim report of the royal commission which Investigated the Ilaie Dos Chaleurs scandal, and on the strength of whose finding .Mr. Mercicr was dismissed from office, together with r.I .

Gov. Angers letter of dismissal and the c.v-preinicrH reply thereto. The commission's report, which is signed by only two mcmlmrs the third, Judge Jette, being ineapneitated by illness -finds that, while Mr. (larineau, minister of public works, gave proof of carelessness in business there is nothing to show that he benefited in any way by the transaction, and that when .Mr. Lanjrelier, provincial secretary, accepted money from I'arsud, lie was erfcctl.v nware of Its source. As regards Mr. Mereier, the report says that it was not proved that he knew of the existence of the bargain Itetween Contractor Armstrong ad Pacand. The other members of the cabinet are declared to have derived no advantage whatever from the transaction. In transmitting the report to Mr. Mereier. Lieut. -Ii'ov. Amrers NlatK tbat

I It proved carelisnewi and illegalities, and forced upon him the conviction that the ministry was not in a position to advise the rtpresentative of the erown, mid that, therefore, he must dismiss them, .Mr. Mercicr, in his reply, declares that the representations arc those of imrtisans and that the allegations made in it are contrary to the proof. He. charges the lieutenant-governor with having arrested the working of the government In refusing to call the legislatnre at the request of Us majority to transact public business, and with having carried out one of the most odious conspiracies ever entered Into airainst the. constit

enjoyed by a free people. In concluding, he says: "I will try to ttnilo your nefarious work with the assistance of my colleagues and inv jmlitlcal friends and willingly expend all that I possess to save our cherished province. 1 denounce yon before public opinion, and the time is not far distant when the representatives of the fieople will again resume the power of which yon have stripped them, and vindicate the constitution which you have broken."
