REORGANIZATION OF CHINESE REVOLT IS PLANNED BY LEADERS IN HWANG TUNG
PRESENT REBELLION ENDS IN FUSCOWashington Receives Report That Arouses Keen Interest
~ |n Panama Affairs
SAFEGUARD SHIPPING "THROUGH THE ISTHMUS
May Mean Revolution of Naval Policy In Western
Hemisphere
CLAIMS ISLAND ATPACIFIC TERMINAL
Washington, Aug. 4.—Keen interest fias been aroused here by a report, reaching the state department that Great Britain is contemplating establishing a great naval base in the Bermuda islands. It is stated authoritatively that the British government has made inquiry concerning the plans of the United States for the protection of the PaAama Canal routes, and it has been suggested that this Indicates an Intention to safeguard British shipping through the isthmus as is done In the Mediterranean.
Officials realise that the problem raised is a tremendous one. Involving as It may, the very life of the Monroe Doctrine and making, perhaps, a complete revolution In foreign naval policy In the Western hemisphere.
Apart from its West Indian stations the royal navy maintained stations at Esquimau. B. C.. and Halifax. N. 8. There was a plan to strengthen greatly the fortification at Esquimau overlooking the Straits of Juan de Puca In order to make that an Important base, but both of these stations now have a merely nominal existence under the government of the Dominion of Canada.
If Great Britain undertakes to establish herself In Atlantic waters, the proposed Bermuda station near Hamilton would occupy a formidable position. The present equipment there IS tneagre, but the garrison consists of two companies of artillery, a company of engineers and a -battalion of ln-
By way of looking out for future contingencies at the Pacific terminal of the Panama Canal, the British claim ownership of Clippezton island, probably the finest deep water harbor In that part of the Pacific ocean.
While Great Britain is asserting her- •elf, officials here remember how long Germany has looked with wistful eyes at the Danish West Indian island of St. Thomas, which occupies a strong strategic position in relation to the Panama Canal. United States naval trateglsts have always favored the acquisition by the United States of the Danish possession, which Germany would have taken over years ago but for the United States objection.
Then there Is the Dutch island of Curacao, where the Germans made themselves very much at home during the blockade of Venesuelan ports in 1903.
Diplomatists at the state department, aa well as naval strategists, realize that the determination of the future ownership of these islands is one of the important questions confronting the United States.
Warships of Six Nations Gathered at Canton Where Situation Remains Serious; Sixty Thousand Dollars is Offered for
Head of Governor; Vessels Ready at Hongkong to Proceed With Stores and Troops
London, Aug. 4.—"The revolt has ended In a fiasco," says the Times correspondent at Peking. If further developments occur they will result from the Introduction of new factors and fresh bases for operations.
“Dr. Bun Tat Ben says the revolt will hi reorganised from the province of Kwang Tung, whither the leaders are reported to have fled, but it Is difficult to believe that the leaders, who made such a mess of the present affair, are capable of organising another movement calculated to endanger the- government." __
Shanghai, Aug. 4.—Following the bombardment of the Wu Sung forts early Saturday morning by government warships commanded by Admiral Tseng, the warships returned to the attack for a brief period later In the day with the apparent object of hastening the negotiations for the surrender of the rebels who are holding the forts.
The northern admirals are undertaking a large, sweeping movement with a view to cornering all the revolutionists in Wu Sung.

Well Dressed Women Disturb Morning Service With Prayer
for Mrs, Pankhurst
London. Aug. 4.—A party of forty well-dressed suffragettes Interrupted the morning service at St Paul's cathedral yesterday by chanting a prayer In behalf of Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst
The women, who had front seats In the centre aisle, chanted loudly during Litany:
"Save Emmeline Pankhurst Spare her: Spare her.
“Give her light and set her free/“Save her: Save her."Hear us while we pray to Thee."Evidently the chant had been re
hearsed. It was the same tune the cholri had been singing.
Members of the congregation then remonstrated with the disturbers. The suffragettes, however, repeated their chant three or four times; each time In louder tones. A majority of them finally were led out quietly by the ushers, but a half dozen clung to their chairs and fought against ejectment.
A squad of police was in attendance at vesper this evening, but there was no disturbance.

MILLIONAIRE’S MOTORIS STRUCK BY TRAIN
8. Osgood Poll and Chauffeur Killed and Friends in Automobile
Injured
Long Beach, N. Y., Aug. 4.-8. Osgood Pell, a millionaire real estate broker of New York city, with his chauffeur, whose name is not known, were killed at Long Beach crossing last night, when their machine was struck by a train. William Laimber and his wife, of Hempstead, who were riding in the car, were badly Injured. Laimber, it was said, will not recover. In a car following the one that was struck, Mrs. Pell and a party of friends were riding. She was brought to Long Beach where she was treated by physicians.
Word was received this morning from the hospital at Hempstead, L. I., to which Mr. Laimber was taken, that he was barely alive td-day, and physicians gave but slight hope of his recovery. Mrs. Laimbar’s condition Is critical, but she has a chance for life.
Washington, D. C, Aug. 4.—Armed Intervention in Mexico neither Is a probability nor a possibility because a peaceable solution of the difficulty Is becoming more practicable. This view President Wilson took to-day of the situation. He let It be known, too, that before the end of the day he would make a brief announcement of the first step In the policy of the United States toward Mexico. While no Inkling of what It would be came from the White House, it was expected that the president would formally announce hie decision not to recognise the Huerta government.
Ambassador Wilson returned to Washington to-day ter a conference with Secretary Bryan. The American ambassador's return evidently had been arranged for on short notice.
His telegram from Secretary Bryan said he was wanted to confer on Important matters.
Secretary Bryan made the following statement; "Ambassador Wilson’s resignation has been accepted, taking effect on October 14th. The part which he felt It hie duty to take In earlier stages of the recent revolution In Mexico would make it difficult for him to represent the views of the present administration in view of the situation which now exists."
The" ambassador in the ordinary practice Is entitled to sixty days’ leave exclusive of Sundays, which accounts for the fixing of the date of October 14, In the announcement. In the meantime no appointment can be made of a successor as a vacancy will not exist until that date. Consequently the American embassy In Mexico will re main in charge of »>cretary O’Shaugh- nessay, corresponding in status with the Mexican embassy in the city of Washington, which Is now conducted by Charge Algara. ,
The announcement followed a conference with Secretary Bryan to which Mr. Wilson had been summoned from New York by telegraph. Earlier Mr. Wilson broadly Intimated that he expected his resignation to be asked for almost any time and pointed out that he had tendered It three times since March. No Intimation of what the president’s announcement would be was permitted to leak out but enquirers were assured that Intervention was out of the question, and there were reasons for believing the announcement would deal with this government’s attitude toward exports of arms to Mexico.
HUERTÂWILL BROOKNO INTERFERENCE
Declaration Followed by Activity to Hove Embargo on Arms
Repealed.
Washington, D. C.. Aug. 4.—Official Washington read with keen Interest yesterday the declaration of Aurellano Urrutla, the Mexican minister of the interior, that Provisional President Huerta would not resign and would brook no foreign Interference in his administration.
While no plan that the American government has had under serious consideration Involved any direct interference In Mexican affairs, the admitted attitude of the administration here Is one of unalterable opposition to the recognition of the Huerta regime.
Without the recognition of the United States, leading Mexicans have claimed that Mexico would not be atofe to extricate Itself from Its financial difficulties. It has been believed here that pressure would be brought to persuade
‘Huérta to resign.The announcement that Huerta had
determined not to do so has clouded the situation somewhat and spurred the constitutionalists to further activity to obtain the repeal of the embargo on arms.

Brock, Saak., Aug. 4.- -After attempting to kill hie wife with a razor at an early hour yesterday morning Frank Hannan, a farmer living twenty miles south of Brock, contmitted suicide by hanging himself in a granary about a mile distant from the scene of the attempted murder. Mrs. Hannan Is In a serious condition but has a slight chance of recovery.
Seattle, Aug. 4.—Damage approximating $16,000 was done by a fire which yesterday noon swept over two blocks of property in the University district and attracted a crowd of several thousand to .the scene.
The greater part of the loss was suffered by the University Fuel Company and the Banning Lumber Company. Most of the damage was cow—- ed by Insurance.
Promptly to time the U. S. cruiser West Virginia, <f the Pacific Reserve fleet, took up her berth this morning at Esquimau harbor, and with her arrival the Victoria Carnival may be said to have been Inaugurated. She hurried to berth before eleven o’clock :n order that a position might be taken up at the west side of the harbor before H. M. S. New Zealand arrived from Vancouver, well within the scheduled hour, Capt. Halsey's reputation In this regard being maintained. In order that the American cruiser should not arrive before the hour arranged In the programme, she lay till an early hour off Port Townsend.
Rear-Admiral Reynolds brought three staff officers with him, Lieut. J. D. Llddle, Lieut H. W. McCormack, and Ueut J. H. Klein. Capt. C. J. Lang, from the Colorado, Is in command. Several of the officers were transferred from other vessels for this special cruise. Only about 190 men were on board the West Virginia when the Invitation was accepted, so that It
is necessary to make about 135 transfers so that the ship might be manned to come here, her full complement when in commission being 860 men. These transfers have been arranged by picking men expert In various sports. As a matter of fact the volunteers were far more than the necessary complement required. Among the men chosen are the fleet baseball team, who have challenged any team of semi-professional class to meet them; a race boat's crew; a musical quartette, and some track men. The last named have come fer the sports tomorrow.
The vessel, which is a unit In reserve with the Colorado with headquarters at Bremerton, Is almost Identical In appearance with the Callfo-- nla, which was a visitor last wee’:. The characteristic four funnels and lattice mest make her a commanding object from the water. She Is of a type of which there are six on the Pacific coast, two of « which are In reserve, and foui' In reserve on the Atlantic coast. She steams Just over 22 knots, and carries 44 guns. There are 4 eight-inch, 16 six-Inch, 22 three-inch and two saluting guns.
The West Virginia was met by a party from the citizens’ committee this morning, who went out in the tug Petrel. Soon after she entered the harbor and came to anchor the representatives of the committee boarded her and paid their respects to the Rear- Admiral. They were heartily welcomed by Ad mi il Reynolds, and an Informal talk took place as to the arrangements for the Carnival. At two o’clock this afternoon Captain Halsey, of H. M. S. New Zealand, was to visit Admiral Reynolds and later United States Consul Smith was to pay a visit to the cruiser.
The Lieutenant-Governor will be visited, probably to-morrow, when the Admiral will call at Government House. Owing to other arrangements the dinner on the West Virginia to officers of the New Zealand, the commander of the station, and Commander Walters, of H. M. 8. Shearwater, which was set for this evening, has been postponed to a later date this week. However, the smoking concert to the crew will take place as scheduled so g platform has been erected aft' for the convenience of the musicians and performers of various kinds. The West Virginia has. considerable, talent of this character, and the proceedings will be Interesting. The officers will attend the ball to officers of H. M. S. New Zealand, which Is being given at the Union Club this evening.
Beyond the field sports to-morrow, no definite arrangements have been made for contests between the naval crews, although It Is understood an effort will be made to bring off water sports among the various naval vessels In harbor during the stay In port of the two cruisers.
It is many a long day since the harbor at Esquimalt presented such a busy appearance as It possesses to-day? With representatives of the navies of Great Britain, the united States and Canada In harbor, the waters offer an attractive spectacle. The four armored vessels In port range up from one to four funnels. H. M. S. Shearwater to atill off the naval yard ylth her single funnel. H. M. C. S. Rainbow Is a double tunneled vessel, while H. M. S. New Zealand has three gigantic funnels, which became familiar during her resent visit to Esquimalt

Vancouver, Aug. 4.—Four thousand salmon fishermen have gone on strike on the Fraser river and the Industry is to-day practically at a standstill as the result of a dispute over conditions. The first Inkling came on Saturday last when It was learned suddenly by the men employed in the business that the cannera proposed to Immediately drop the price of salmon from 25 cents to 16 cents each. There was an Immediate cessation of work. »
White fishermen, Japanese and Indians have Joined in the strike and to give their side of the dispute strength they have succeeded In calling out the Indian women employed in the canneries. The result of this act by the men Is that In one cannery alone to-day 14,000 fish are lying without labor being obtainable to perform the canning operations.
Greeks so far have not gone on strike, but they are the only ones of all who were engaged In the business that are now working, and endeavors are being made by the operators to get them to Join the ranks of those who are protesting against the lowering of the price by the e&nneries. Success had not attended the efforts in this direction this morning for the Greeks were still at work.
The Japanese are taking a very active part in the strike, they being the first to establish strike pickets for the purpose of trying to enforce the former rate of payment. They established thelg pickets early this morning round all the canneries affected.
Determined action to have the Greeks join the strikers was made by the Japanese this morning. They requested Greek fishermen who were bringing in their catch not to sell the fish at the price offered by the canners, and when the request was refused, the Japanese attacked the Greeks. In the fight that occurred the Japanese were successful, and threw overboard the catch of the fishermen.
That the Japanese are the cause of the strike is the claim made at the headquarters of the canneries here this morning. The statement given out is to the effect that the white fishermen are willing to work, but that the Japanese on the river will not let them.The Japanese are blamed for the disturbance, and It Is said that the Japanese boarded the white men’s boats also, and threw over their fish, which they were willing to sell to the canners at the reduced price.
Because of probable disturbances and to save the fish from being cast back into the river when the boats come in the canners appealed to the provincial government at Victoria this morning to send additional marine police to the scene.
The striking Japanese fishermen went out with guns In their boats last night and warned all fishermen still at work on the gulf to stop at once. The Steveston chief of police claims that in the event of trouble it will be Impossible for the police to handle the Japanese, as the latter slip out under cover of darkness and the few patrol boats would never find them. Several hundred Indian and Japanese women working in*the canneries have quit.
It Is claimed by the strikers that including the women, over six thousand are striking. About thirty-three canneries on the Fraser are effected. A few canneries are still going on fish caught In traps or secured from Puget Sound points. The Japanese threaten to go after the Chinese workers In the canneries and force them to leave.
JAMESON’S APPOINTMENT MEETS WITH APPROVAL
Attitude of People of South Africa in Striking Contrast to Twelve
■ 4 t Years Ago.
Cape Town, Aug. 4.—The appointment of Sir Starr Jameson as chairman of the Chartered Company has been received In Cape Town with practically universal satisfaction.
The attitude of the people toward him to-day is In striking contrast to that of twelve or thirteen years ago. For many years after the raid Dr. Jameson was extremely unpopular with the Dutch. He has quietly worked his way Into favor through years of patient service to his country. After his splendid apology for what he characterized ah “the abominable raid" they frankly and generously wiped the slate and once more placed their trust In Dr. Jim.
His popularity was Increased by the conciliatory methods he employed as a delegate of the national convention, and was finally sealed by his proposing that the old name of Orange Free State should be restored to Orange River Colony, an alteration which was a great thing tb the Dutch.

BALKANS ARMISTICE THREE DAYS LONGER
Roumania and Bulgaria Agree on Frontier Line but In
demnity Abandoned
Bucharest Aug. 4.—The Balkan peace conference Is making steady progress, but it was hardly possible that a preliminary peace treaty could be signed by the time the five days' armistice expiree this week. Roumania, therefore, proposed a three-day extension of the compact This was agreed to to-day by the peace delegates of Roumania, Servta, Greece, Montenegro and Bulgaria.
The new frontier between Roumania and Bulgaria as agreed upon will start twelve kilometers south of Baltjlk, a port on the Black Sea, run northwesterly to a point twelve kilometers south of Dobritch and finish nine kilometers west of Turtukal, on the Danube, about forty miles southeast of Bucharest. It Is reported the allies will abandon their demand for am Indemnity from Bulgaria.
The disposition of Kalava, in the vilayet of Salon lea, on the Aegean Sea, Is the thorniest problem with which the conference has to deal and seems destined to produce another war in a few years, even if now settled without further hostilities.

Mr. Malone arrived Saturday. Regarding his conference with the ambassador, he said to-day: "My work In the state department is concerned with the Panama exhibition. You may draw your own conclusion. I am here just a week-end guest I think it is not more unusual for an Irishman to visit a British ambassador than It Is for a British ambassador to choose Dublin for hie residence."

Horse Breeding for Army Purposes on Large Tract
- v in Alberta
Calcary, Alta., Aug. 4.—Canada is gding to make a strong bid for the cavalry remount business of the Brit' iah Empire. The National Bureau of Breeding has demonstrated beyond doubt that the thoroughbred sire Is the best producer of remounts, and both the department of militia and defence and the department of agriculture are cooperating with the bureau in the great work which Is in hand.
A large tract of land in Alberta has been set aside where thousands of half- breeds by thoroughbred sires will be collected as yearlings and matured until three years old. This work of collecting the bureau crop has been taken up by the National Live Stock Exchange, a powerful company with an authorised capital of $2,000,060. It Is estimated that between $4Q0,00b and $500,000 will be spent by this company within the next' twelve months in the purchase of these young remounts, and, when they have been collected and developed, Canada will get first call, and the British war office second call.
The remount industry Is reaching In terestlng proportions Jiipt at the right time, when the motor and auto truck are commencing to seriously affect the market for other breeds of horses.

VIENNA IS WORKING FOR CHEAP SWELLINGS
Flat Construction Problem in Austrian City Being Met
by Municipality
========
i!g
Vienna, Aug. 4.—The city of Vienna is now taking action to provide the poor with cheap dwellings. Rents In Vienna have been steadily rising throughout the city, and the builder and contractor only cares to erect immense palatial residences, with a number of flats, which are let at exorbitant rents, to persons without families. and not possessing animals.
This policy has already led to considerable trouble, workmen with large families have not been able to obtain accommodation of any kind, and last summer some hundreds erected arbors of branches of trees, and climbing plants, on the commons outside the city, and lived in these very insufficient shelters for months.
Ont* workman, with nine children, who was refused admission to any house, as the porter objected to the dirt and noise made by the children, purchased an old railway carriage and converted It Into a very pretty dwelling house, on some church lands, near Vienna. It was some months before the city was able to deal with the man, who spent the summer In his novel residence without paying either rent or taxes. The church would na turally not permit of his expulsion, on the grounds that proper accommodation must first be found for him; but the civic authorities succeeded In dislodging him at last.
Several houses have already been opened aa well as hundreds of small flats, while other houses of similar description are In course of construction.
The flats consist of a kitchen and one-windowed room, the larger flats having a kitchen, and a room with two windows. The first cost 27.50 kronen per month; the recond, larger type, 30-40 kronen per month. One of the regulations Is to the effect that'families with children will be preferred, but where the numerous children are to sleep in a flat with only one small room Is not Indicated.
These municipal flats have one great advantage. The tenants may not be dislodged unless for some Important reason. This is a great advantage I9 Vienna, where the landlords, owing to the scarcity of flats, give notice without any reason at all, and raise the rent without cause.
A co-operative store where all the necessities, of life are sold at reasonable prices for ready money, and which Is managed by the customers themselves, who elect a board of man agement each year.

Last Night to Quell I. W. W. Disturbanca
Sacramento, Cal., Aug. 4.—A special train carrying five companies of mlHtta left here at midnight for Wheatland, Cal., where four men, including the district attorney of Yuba county, were killed yesterday In a battle between 400 striking hop pickers and a sheriff’s posse. The militiamen are equipped with 200 rounds of ammunition per man and three days’ rations.
According to reports reaching here from Wheatland, the hop pickers, who held a meeting at noon yesterday and formulated demands for Increased wages, were employees of the Durst ranch, which lies partly Within Wheat- land. Mr. Durst and a constable attended the meeting. Mr. Durst refused the demand for more bay, and the men became abusive. When the constable sought to place the leader under arrest he was disarmed and beaten, but escaped and telephoned the sheriff of Yuba county for help, who gathered a posse at Marysville and hastened to Wheatland by automobile.
When the machine reached Wheat- land the sheriff sought to parley with the rlot^fs. Abusive language was hurled at him and he seised one man and started toward the motor cars. The prisoner’s friends leaped at the sheriff and beat him into unconsciousness. The deputies made a charge and a volleÿ of shots were exchanged. J. Man well, standing by the automobiles; F. Cuhningham, a deputy sheriff; and Constable Anderson and two women bystanders were wounded.
Reports from Wheatland said the strikers had surrounded the home of the Durst Bros., owners- of the ranch on which the men were employed, and that the brothers, their mother and two children were prisoners. The trouble is said to have been started by I. W. W. among the hop pickers, and It Is reported that a call has been sent out summoning members of the organisation to the scene. The railroad stations and highways about Wheatland are guarded by men armed with shotguns and all comers are being turned back.
One I. W. W. member, taken into custody at Wheatland, said the ranch employees struck for better sanitary conditions in camp and In the field, and also for fresh water service twice daily. He said that messages had been sent out by the leaders calling all members of the organisation to Wheatland.

RELIGIOUS RIOTING AT CAWNPORE YESTERDAY
Calcutta, Aug. 4.—The demolition of n portion of a mesque at Cawnpore tor street improvements, which had catised Indignation meetings to be held in many parts of India and Burmah, led to serious rloiing at Cawnpore yesterday. A procession of natives carrying black flags visited the mosque, and began replacing the bricks of the partly-demolished edifice. An attempt to disperse the gathering resulted in a conflict with the police, who fired a volley Into the crowd, killing thirteen persons and wounding thirty. One policeman was shot, and forty others slightly injured.

HOLD BAPTISTS HARMFUL IN RUSSIAN TERRITORY
St. Petersburg, Aug. 2.—The Russian ministry of the interior is credited to-day by the Novoe Vremya with the intention of permitting the holy synod to proclaim the Baptists as sect especially harmful to the state, and therefore not eligible for registration and not possessing the right of liberty of worship. The action of the government Is attributed by the newspaper to th3 recent refusal of Baptists to take the military oath.
The Baptists’ world alliance in Its session in Philadelphia in 1911 raised $70,000 for the establishment of a Baptist seminary in St. Petersburg, and two Baptist ministers were appointed to proceed to the Russian capital to seek permission from the emperor for the erection of the building.

ONCE A STATESMANrow niui
FICKLE EUROPE THUS ESTIMATES DR. DANEFF
All Sympathy of Great Britain for Balkan States Has
Disappeared
(Special Correspondence.)London, July 21.—Only a month or
tw;o ago there was hardly any more popular or better known foreign statesman than Dr. Daneff. the Bulgarian peace envoy, who spent so many months in this country; was feted and made much' cf as the real liberator of Bulgaria from the Ottoman yoke. People spoke very highly of his Intellectual abilities, of his grasp of international politics, of his high sense of patriotism, and of his civilizing influence. This was one montl^ago. Now qone so poor tJ do him reverepce, and perhaps it Is not surprising The kindest term I have heard “applied" to him is the “villain of the piece." He is. BUt for Dr. Daneff, the Bulgarians would never after the defeat of Turkey have shown ouch overweening ambition in the seizure of thé territorial spoils. He, however, merits the criticism of Mary Antony over the dead body of Caesar:
The noble Brutus Hath told you Caesar w&l ambitious;If It were so it was a grievous fault And grievously hath Caesar answer’d It.
So has Dr. Daneff; he has been compelled to resign the .rime ministership, and although time brings about curious changes It is doubtful whether his political career is not practically finished. He must also beware. The Bulgarians are a‘race who can hate, and they show their resentment in ugly ways, as witness the murder of Stain- buloff in the streets of Sofia. There will be many who will not forget the part played by the man who ruined his country and who made me position of his king very difficult—for King Ferdinand has lost the popularity of a lifetime in a trief month. Bulgaria also in the same brief period has fallen from her high estate, and at the present moment It is only a question as to how far she will fall. Here is the real history of recent events, anC while perhaps you will have had enough of the war by the time this reaches you, I will risk your displeasure and throw a little light on the whole affair.
There is no doubt that Bulgaria ha^ long been planning to seise the hegemony of the Balkans as a result of the war with Turkey, which left her under the treaty with her allies with far more territory than she ever anticipated at the start. Her allies thought there should be a red I vision of thé spoils, but she did not, and she accordingly prepared for an appeal to arms to settle the matter. No doubt as the allies allege she started the war secretly—that has been proved by documents which have been discovered on the battlefield; what Is extremely probable, although It has not been proved. Is that the allies were making ready to do the same. It Is the old story of Ah Sin. the Chinaman, In the ballad of Bret Harte. In the subsequent fighting, the Bulgarians were badly beaten, and their supplies of ablebodied men ran short and their ammunition gave out. They were face to face with all the three allies fighting like demons, with Roumanie, which “Intervened" to seize the Dobrudja district which she has long coveted, and to exercise an influence which she felt was getting a bit overlooked In the struggle, and with Turkey which thought It would be a clever and paying game to fish In troubled waters. On the last point, Turkey has made a miscalculation—she will have to go back to the Enos-Midta line, and If there had been any government at Constantinople worth the name it would have recognized the fact and curbed the misguided military ardor of the nation. However, there was not, and hence all the admonitions of the Powers fe1! cn deaJ ears. The cold shock of permitted possibility will strike the Turk a little ! ’.ter on. He will not be surprised for he knows what is coming.
Ùnfier these circumstances, what could Bulgaria do, cave appeal to her ancient protector Russia, and this she did In such grovelling fashion that there could be do doubt about the sincerity of her inclinations. Yet what could Russia do? Nothing more than any other Power. All preach “pacification” at r*ny price, and none of them see how it Is obtainable save as a result of a process of exhaustion which is now In progress. Still, Russia was ready with advice, but as not a single one of the combatants has paid the slightest heed to all tiie.perfervld admonitions of the Powers, the task was beatlitg the air. All she could do was to promise to use her best efforts, and she accordingly applied to Greece and Servla, who intimated that before they would agree to an armistice Bulgaria ntust give guarantees that she would not use the Interval to reorganize her army. To this Russia agreed, but the Bulgarians considered they were teing asked to grovel too much, and when the tentative conditions of peace were put forward, it was found that they took away from the beaten ally practically every foot of noil in Macedonia and cut

MILLION DEARS FOR TOE MISSION RESERVE
Pacific Great Eastern Official Has Conference With Ja- .. dians on Mainland
Vancouver, Aug. 4.—Acquisition of the Mission Indian reserve by the Pacific Great Eastern Railway Company is a step nèarer. as the result of a long conference held between the Indians on the reserve and DArcy Tate, vlge-presldent of the company.
Some daya ago, a conference was held on the reserve between the Indiana and Mr. Tate, at which the memlwH of t'.i - royal commission on Indian reserve» present. Mr. Tate made. the lnaiHqrfr>n offer .In cash for-Ipelr property In of a million dollars. That conference was adjourned In ord.*r to give tha^fnidlans time to consider It. and It was resumed by appointment yesterday with Mr. Tate and other officials of the company.
"We had a most harmonious conference.” said Mr. 'fate after the meeting, ‘and I abi hopeful that before many days we shall have an affirmative answer by the Indians to our proposals, which, 4 consider, are most liberal. We may have another conference, however, because some of the chiefs are away flsu.ng, but they will be communicated with, and I am promised a definite answer before very long.
'We are acting under the aAvloe of the royal commission, which will. If the negotiations are completed, as I am hopeful they will, make the. surrender for the Indians and look after the distribution on thé terms proposed, namely, a payment In cash to each Indian entitled to share In the proceeds of the reserve, and the placing of the balance In trust with the federal government for the future benefit of the Indians. We have secured a promise by the provincial government that It will waive Its claim to the reserve, if we come to terms with the Indians. ‘
"I see no reason why the negotiations should not be teffiolhated In a manner satisfactory to everybody within a very short time and we be thus enabled to go ahead with the construction of our terminals on the Mission property at .«orth Vancouver. This will be of great advantage, not only to that city, but to Vancouver as well, and will enable us to rush our work to completion so as to give direct connection with the main line of the Grand Trunk Pacific by the time that railway Is opened."
her off from the nunean altogether, it is -ot surprising that the statesmen in Sofia thought that if they were to be wiped off the map they might as well go under with a certain amount of self-respect left. Bo the war went on, while Russia. In view of the advance of Roumanla, tried desperately to bring the combatants together, but, up to the present, with no success. At present no one can say what will happen, and I have never seen the Powers so much at their wits’ end either to know what t » do or to anticipate the future. Meantime, Russia and Austria, who pretty well represent the voice of Europe, have put forward the following conditions of territorial di-
“Servla to have Ishtlb and to Join the Greek frontier at Glevgelu. Greece to start her frontier at Glevgelu and continue It thence to Dolran, Serres and Orphan!. Bulgaria to have the rest of Eastern Macedonia, vitb the coast line from Orphan! through Cavalla, the best port, to Enos. Roumanla to have the territory from Turtukal on the Danube to Baltchlk on he Black Sea. Turkey’s frontiers to remain as they were at the peace of London."
Under this Bulgaria, of course, fares disastrously, as compared with < hat she would have acquired as a result of the arbitration of Russia after the war, but then she is ‘he vanquished.
Now what about the Powers ?. How will matters now leave them? There are several points which are clearly established, the first and foremost being that the —ar will not, as It threatened, establish another new Rower, Bulgaria. For many years to come Bulgaria Is a humbled nation, and she will spend all her strength and all her energies in preparing for the day when she will take a terrible revenge on her allies who have thus crushed her. It may be that for her the mills of God will grind slowly, but she intends that
they shall grind, and that one day she will be able to press the faces of her quondam allies in the dust. This is no language of hyperbole. Living far away, you may not realize the fearful ferocity of these Slav combatants. Probably you will have read the cabled reports of the appalling atrocities; they may be exaggerated a little, but for the most part they are absolutely true, and apart from the Greeks who, having had few losses, have shown less venom than the others, there Is very little to choose between Bulgarians and Sc • vi&ns; the latter have devastated Albania, and 1 e former have reduc V central Ma cedonia to a wilderness.
Already there is talk of "conversions." One knows what that means. The word was familiar under the old Turkish regime. They are usually effected by the aid cf the thumb-sere / and the gallows. One thing the Powers are already convinced of Is that after afl the fighting has stopped there must be some sort of international action to secure the lives and property of the minorities. Otherwise the population of Macedonia will very soon disappear altogether. There is yet another factor which may have to be taken into con* sidération, and that is supplied by the potentialities of Greece becoming a first-class naval power In the Medi* terranean. Had any other .nation but Oireece secured the territorial windfalls which hajtre now fallen to her, there would have to te a good deal more heart-searching among the ‘ various naval Powers, but Greece on the sea is not a serious factor, aqd to be perfectly candid her military achievements have not been so striking as those of the other allie*.
Finally, It Is safe to say that all sympathy In this country for any of the combatants has disappeared, and it' will no longer be possible to preach pro-Macpdonlanlsm to an unreceptlve public. The Balkan committee will probably turn its attention to Asia Minor, although as matter* Indicate the rule of the Slav In Macedonia will be worse than that of the Turk.

perative Questions This Evening.
Numerous subjects which ought to be dealt with as soon *a possible will probfld>ly be laid over this evening at the city council meeting. It Is expected that only Imperative matters will receive attention. One Item will probably be the report on the civic salaries, which has been waiting for attention for some time, and which Alderman McNeill desires to see taken up In a full council meeting.
The water commissioner will make a report upon the statement of the Vancouver Fire Underwriters’ Association that since the closing down of the Elk Lake plant, steam haul been allowed to go down In the pumping plant at North 'Dairy farm. He will report generally on that waterworks system. In view of the misunderstanding which exists about that plant. There are also a few minor subjects to receive attention.
The city authorities are taking up at the preempt time the desirability of protecting the embankment at Ross Bay cemetery, which is at such am angle that the rains will wash down the earth to the new roadway, injuring the bank and spoiling the appearance of the thoroughfare. Virginia creeper has been suggested as a satisfactory method of overcoming the erosion and giving a pretty covering.

E BE BUT MS FOR SEALING CLAIMS
Commissioner Asks Where *"* Claims of $4,600,000 Are
to Be Satisfied
SIR CHARLES H. TUPPER OPENS COMPANY’S CASE
Will Answer Question From Bench Later; Says Client
Was Legitimate Combing
%
Hi
With the appearance of Sir Chari* Wlbbert Tapper before the seating commissioner an Important phase of the commissioner’s power was raised by Mr. Justice Audette this morning, and Sir Charles promised to address himself to the point before concluding the case of hie client, the Victoria Sealing Company. Mr. Justice Audette pointed out that only $200,000 had been turned over by the United States government as compensation to Canada for the loss of the industry and that his commission was to distribute that money among those individuals who had been damnified: The following question arose: Supposing thecommissioner recommended that a sum greater than $200,000 be distributed, where would the extra money come from? Why should the other people •f Canada, who were also affected to a Certain degree dig down in their pockets for those who it is true were more seriously injured? he asked. The claims, he pointed out, totalled nearly half a million dollars.
Sir Charles showed that there would be annual sums from the UnlteÇ States representing 15 per cent of this catch at the Prybiloff Islands and that it was possible to argue that these sums should be so used. The government could advance a lump spm whatever the commissioner recommended and this money would be coming in year after year to recompense them for It.
The commissioner pointed out that the United States might cancel the treaty If It found that the arrangement was not satisfactory. Sir- Charles did not think this probable but agreed that the r' commissioner had pointed out a problem which should be spoken to by counsel representing claimants before the commission.
Another point which was brought up this morning was wrhether the commis sion given by the government covered losses sustained before 1811 by the other regulations as well as the losses since that date. Sir Charles claimed under the old regulations and also under the treaty of 1911. His clients had been In Jured by all.
The total claim of the Victoria Sealing Company was $1,61<,667, and Sir Charles spent the whole morning addressing the court In opening the case. He had not concluded when adjournment was had for luncheon. H. B. Robertson is assisting him In putting the company’s claim before the court.
In opening the case Sir Charles read a number of records and documents which he filed as exhibits. Prank Curran, K.C., the government counsel, ob-
• jected to these being produced until they were Identified by witnesses. They went in subject to his objection. »
Sir Charles narrated the history of the company he represented, telling how it was originally an association and had been Incorporated at the time of the beginning of restrictions to the industry for mutual protection and in order that the company might be map- aged economically T>y one set of officers.
"It was in reality a combine in a small way. I understand,” suggested the commissioner. *T believe that originally hunters used to go from one
schooner to another, representing that they had better offers from other boats and In that way get better wages. By organizing the owners cut out this bidding.”
“I never heard that,” replied Sir Charles, "but, of çourse, the company was organized to see that there was more economy In the management. It was a combine, but one of these legitimate combines which is forced upon firms to save themselves from going out of business entirely.’* ’ ' ?
Counsel for the claimant presented a most elaborate set Of authorities on the sealing Industry and the present claims, going back for fifty years tn the search for statistics an.d_ expert opinions. United States. Canadian and British blue books were cited and scientific reports on the habits of the seals were gathered from all quarters of the "lobe.
The commissioner questioned the accuracy of a contention of Sir Charles that the seals were at their best during the three months that were a closed season for some years. He said that all his previous evidence had been otherwise. Sir Charles, however, produced expert after expert authority to show that the very jwst sealing was In June, July and August, and that with those three months a closed season a sealer could hardly hope to make his schooner pay. Moreover, he maintained, the season was not closed to Japanese and Russians and by 1908 he showed that there were 88 Japanese schooners to eight Canadians jn the sealing «rounds.
Sir Charles also referred to the offei* received by the Victoria Sealing Company in 1898 from the American government. Under this $480,000 was to have been paid for the company's outfit at that time, but the negotiations had fallen through, not so much on their own merits as because they were hitched with a number of other negotiations which collapsed.

The officers, however, did not allow enough for the drop which would result from the ship's passing from salt water Into fresh water. As a consequence the freighter struck hard. She remained fast for several days,.»nd It was not until the ship waa lightered that she was hauled off.

Fishermen and packers on the Skeena river may drop a great deal of money this season owing to the poor run of sockeyee. When the svr.ng run started some week4 ago the Japanese and white fishermen caught large numbers of the fin» finny creatures. The packers began to figure on a good season, but since toe disappearance of the springs the so^keyes have fail'd to run in such great schools as were originally expected. In fact the fishermen have had great* difficulty in catching sufficient fish even to make expenses.
There Is a possibility that the sock- eyes may start to run better In a week or so, but according to officers on the G. T. P. steamer Prince Rupert, which came In from the north yesterday morning, it is probable that some of the canneries will close down before long.

Anderson, of Vancouver, were among the passengers who came south. They spent a week at Stewart looking over the properties of the Red Cliff Mining Company with a view to purchasing the holdings. John Martin, manager of the Ocean Falls Pulp Mills, came south on business.
The Prince George sailed for the north this morning with a good list of passengers, including the following, who embarked here: M. R. Mohr, R. M. Cook, J. P. McLeod, Miss Alice Caras. Mrs. A. Caras and Mr. and Mrs. T. W. Walker.

SUSPICIOUS LOOKINGCRAFT OFF ALERT BAY
A wireless message received here today from Alert Bay stated tfhat a suspicious-looking craft passed there this morning. What this suspicious-looking craft can be Is something mysterious, and shipping men have been puzzling their heads all day.
The craft is a gasoline vessel and may be bringing some more Japanese to this province. It may also be an American fishing vessel prowling about for bait. It may be a smuggler and goodness only knows what else.
Later details are being eagerly awaited here.

AMATEUR CHAMPS ARE BADLY BEATEN
Victoria Twelve Outplays Mann Cupholders in Saturday's
Match
Vancouver’s amateur lacrosse champions, the V. A. C. twelve, went down to dcféat at the hands of the Victoria twelve on Saturday afternoon at the Royal Athletic park, the final score being 9 to 4 in favor of the local club. The game, wltlch was witnessed by a small crowd, was an excellent exhibition of the national game, the Victoria team coming away with a superb finish and sweeping the malnlanders off their feet at the close. The V. A. C. team started fast but could not hold the pace, Victoria showing better form as the game progressed. R Painter, the Terminal City point player, was forced to retire because of a badly wrenched arm, when he was bodied Into the
Manager I»rimer trotted out no less than five Intermediates and the entire squad made a grand showing. The Victoria defence was a little loose at the start, hut they improved very quickly and towards the close were practically unbeatable. The improvement on the Victoria home was a treat, the locals snapping the ball from one to another like big leaguers. Altogether, the win of the Victoria team was a great boost for the game locally, as well as showing that Victoria Is developing lacrosse players as good, If not better than those In Vancouver. That Victoria could defeat the reorganized V. A. C. team with five intermediates on the team shows that there Is every prospect of the Mann cup being brought to the capital next season.
Sherwood played brilliant lacrosse for the winners, as did Brynjolfsen, Clarke and Steele. Stan. Ross and Menzies also made good, while Aille McGregor was shooting with deadly ef feet.

il
Improved Pitching Give, tm « Few GemeeDutch Kantlehner and Rube Barham showed a brace of really good games
.gainst Vancouver on Saturday and Sunday. The southpaw walked away with t nice victory, breeting fifteen of the Beavers, while he allowed but four hits. The one run that Vancouver secured was due to error, and the Beee hit Bob Brown's ÏXler. hard. Kantlehner gave one of the flmwt pitching exhibition, of the year He appears to have recovered from that long slump that grabbed; him after he had won nine straight. This fallow Barham looks like a And. He certainly has all the stuff In the world and with a little schooling will undoubtedly make good. He has youth-ln his favor and has the necessary sise and weight to stand up under a gruelling struggle. Another twlrler Is due from the Spokane club and the Bees’ pitching staff looks greatly Improved.
Hew Much Does a Knock-Down Countt If ever a lightweight deserved a' decision over a champion. Joe Bayley _
should have wrested the championship away from Frenchy Valse on Saturday. The victoria youth had a clear lead In eleven of the fifteen rounds of Saturday’s contest at Brlghouse Station and while Val» certainly had theVlctorta youth In distress In the-thirteenth, he managed to weather the right cross wh“ch Valse dut over In that round and In the fifteenth *«. battling stronger than the Renton boy. The referee’s decision was tainted very strongly with amateurism and the official was undoubtedly greatly Influenced tar th«, fact that Val» held the championship. Bayley certainly outclaamd Valse tn ell bu^two rounds and had he not run wildly Into the Jolt that sent him. prowl- mg totheCr. he wpuld have run away with the bout.Eventhablow failed to equal!» matter, and the fact that Bayley was able to fight Val» on even terms to the fifteenth should have given him the decision.
Vancouver Still Looks Like • Winner While the Bees were taking three out of eight from the Beavers, Spokane
was giving Beattie about the same treatment, and the result of the past week leaves Vancouver more firmly entrenched to first position, with the chances of Seattle getting up growing slimmer every day. The Ttlllkums are not fielding In the same faultless manner that marked their work earlier in the season while their twirlers are not going » weU. In addition to this the weaker clubs to the league have strengthened and It will take a lot of better ball playing to continue at the clip which they started the season with. Victoria will certainly give ’em a strong argument and the Bees should *>»ut win the Portland appears to have a cinch qfi third place and that Is whe e the 1 -rr. will about land.

VICTORIA RELAYTEAM VICTORIOUS
8AYLEY EARNED DECISIONBUTREFEREE CALLED BOUT A DRAW
Lucky Punch In Thirteenth Allows Valse to Hold Title; Local Boy Shows Grand Come-Back and Deserved to Win -
f Joe Bayley and French!® Valse will meet again before the end of the month In their third contest for the lightweight championship of Canada. The
^draw decision * In Saturday's contest, unsatisfactory as It was to "“tooth parties, has prompted Chqt McIntyre to sign up the boys for a return bout. Morris Condon, manager of Joe Bayley, stated this morning that he did not care to make a statement Just now on the matter, but there was every prospect of the lightweights clashing at Brtghouse again in a few weeks. The contest would prove the biggest boxing card of the year and every bit as good an attraction as the Welsh-Rltchle bout.
Bayley Should Have Won.Considerable dissatisfaction Is ex
pressed in Bayley's camp over the decision rendered by referee Bates. Manager Condon says that he could not see how Bates could allow a knockdown to outweigh the points which Bayley gained earlier in the contest, and he is very much disappointed over the outcome. “Bayley can beat Valse," ■aid Condon this morning, “and won handily on Saturday. We have been avftized for sending Bayley into finish Valse after he had accumulated such a lead on points up to the thirteenth round, but I may say that it was against orders that Bayley forced Valse In that round. Even then, however, we

should have been given the decision."Bayley and his retinue returned to
the capital yesterday afternoon and beyond a scarred lip, Bayley does not bear a mark of the contest. The former champion was in grand physical condition when he entered the ring and has regained his former confidence. Bayley fought a masterly battle for four-fifths of the distance and then tried to win by the Kayo route, leaving himself wide open for the punch that floored him. The blow was all the harder because Bayley was rushing Valse at the time and practically speared himself on the right cross. Cut -that one blow out and Bayley had the fight as far as it is possible for a man to win.
Valse Lacks Class.Taking in the showing of both men,
Vaise certainly did not uncover the class that he had been credited with. He fought flat-footed and covered up for the greater pert of the time. He used his left blit seldom, and appeared unable to protect himself against' the damaging body blows that Bayley scored In the early rounds of the fight. These may have taken a great amount of steam out of Valse, and the Renton boy was decidedly lucky to get a draw. Bayley is no world-beater as a clever mitt artist, but he stood head and shoulders above Valse in this respect. The Victoria boy has sacrificed some of his hitting powers for foot work, while his hitting Judgment was not^of the best. Valse on the other hand, showed rare ability to land, but hie failure to take advantage of the openings which Bayley offered, lost him many a chance. Both boys fought fast In the clinches, Bayley having a great deal the better of the ln-flghtlng.
Referee Bates was trying his best, but he allowed the boys to clinch repeatedly In the first ten rounds and- this enabled Vaise to stall off many a dangerous session. In the sixth Bayley crossed a right to Valse's Jaw that staggered the Renton boy, but he clinched and the bell saved him. In the ninth, tenth and eleventh rounds Bayley repeatedly swung his left and right mitts to the face, Vaise taking a score of hard wallops In these three rounds. The Renton boy was backing around the ring for the greater *part of the time in these rounds.
The thirteenth round had progressed about a minuté when Vaisq dropped that haymaker on Bayley’s nose and mouth. The Victoria boy had driven Valse across the ring with three left Jabs to the face and was dancing in for anpther punch when Vaise swung from his knees and floored Bayley. The •Victoria youth rose to hie feet in a second, but had to stall for the remainder of the rounds. He rapidly regained his strength and was stronger than Vaise when the gong sounded for the finish. Referee Bates’ decision wan received with cheers, moots and groans, both sides claiming a victory. Bayley was so strong that he did not wait for his bath robe, but hopped over the ropes and fought his way to his dressing room, something that Vaise was unable to do.
Frenchy Valse was within an ace of losing the bout on a foul in the fifth when he brought his knee up dangerously near Bayley’s groin in the fifth round. Referee Bates warned him an5 George Paris raised a protest. In the ninth round Vaise tried to bring his knee Into play and again he was warned. Referee Bates could have handed Bayley the fight for this action upon the part of Valse, and unless the Renton boy does away with this *grt of his boxing he will not last long champion;
Joe Bayley will be one of the Judges for to-morrow night’s big boxing tourney at the Victoria Athletic club, the Broad street organization having secured his word that he will be on hand. He will be introduced to the crowd, also.

GREAT MSSTennis Finals on Saturday At
tended by Large and Enthusiastic Crowds
TYLER TOOK MEN’SSINGLES CHAMPIONSHIP
Aliss Pitts Dethroned From Pride of Place as Lady
Champion
One of the mdet successful tourna- Siuats ever organized by the Victoria Tennis Club has brought to a close a season which will ever be auspicious In the annals of the premier local organ 1
• satlon, In that It has seen two of Its I members fighting for Canadian honors in the greatest tennis series in the his tory of the world—the Davis Cup competition at 1918. How well they per formed Is indicated by the fact that they were only beaten In the final by the new cupholders after strenuous battles.
On Saturday afternoon, the local jgeaSon came to a climax with the play- ling' off of the finals for the several ! British Columbia titles, and though It tfcnuèt be said here and now that the l play In all these events was most disappointing and on very rare occasions ‘tip to championship standard, yet the j presence of a record crowd and sustained enthusiasm, spoke volumes for the' present and future popularity of
' the1 great game In this city.The title-holders for the year 1918
are as follows: British Columbiachampionships:
Men’s Singles—Joe Tyler. Spokane.Ladles’ Singles—Miss McDermott,
Victoria. >-Men’s Doubles—Garrett and Evans.Ladles’ Doubles—Mrs. Lyall and
Miss McDermott.Mixed Doubles—Evans and Miss
Henderson.Tyler's Victory.
There was no mistake about Tyler’s superiority over Garrett In the men’s
! final, and many were disappointed at : the showing of the local man who had ' played great tennis right through the I tournament. The smiling American i wort In three straight sets and was never once In trouble. Both men were in the pink of condition after a week's hard playing and stamina hardly entered Into the competition at all. It was a battle of skill—and Incidentally, of styles. In this latter respect Tyler is better off than any man now playing tennis in the Pacific northwest. He Is Just as strong with hie backhand strikes as with those of a normal.na-
| turé and can drive with equal facility ■ frofn either side of the body. His service has both cut and break, and he Is
‘go<id at returning both low and high ' balls. Another great asset to his play ils pie magnificent volleying powers, j which make his net play very deadly indjeed. He Is par excellence a singles
, placer and seldom shines In a double., Tyler’s chief fault Is his Inconsistency.; He has off days, and there is no doubt that his. defeat In Vancouver was due
1 to this fact. For, save for Schwengers.! there is no man north of San Francisco on the Pacific coast who can touch him In a singles battle.
Garrett Is a much Improved player since he figured In the tournament last season. He drives much harder and
{has more skill In placement. His chief fatilt Is a tendency towards losing position In the court, a proceeding which allqws an adversary numerous chances
, to pass him at the net. Yet Garrett himself has an excellent eye for an opening In an opponent’s defence and most of his scoring points on Saturday were obtained by placing shots past the new champion when the latter had come up to “kill.’
The match was won in three straight £Cls, with Tyler getting stronger and HGfarrett weaker as the match pro
gressed. Throughout the tournament this has been a feature of Tyler’s play. He gets stronger as he proceeds. In the last two sets he had Garrett at his mercy and the local man could do nothing with his hard driving. 6-4, 6-3, 6-2, which the scores set by set, show the nature of the play and the gradual decline of the runner up.
,« Disappointing Doubles.Those who attended the final doubles
match of last year, when Evans and Jukes defeated Tyler and Brain In one of the finest matches on the Pacific coast, were inclined to rub their eyes on Saturday last and wonder If It was the same event they were witnessing on this occasion. Evans and Garrett were opposed to Captain Foulkes and Pearce, and practically the only feature of Interest In the match was the plucky struggle of the latter pair who after losing the first two sets badly made a great fight and took the third, and also came within an ace of winning the forth set and tying the score. But for a championship doubles the play was woefully slow. Eternal lobbing from base line to base line Is not conducive to fast tennis, nor does It make a match in the least degree exciting to watch. And when Garrett and Evans found the captain and his partner playing this game they naturally Joined In. and generally.êndèd up by dashing the ball Into the net. Pierce, who played an excellent game right through, often took advantage of the slow play to crash In a hot return, In this way gaining many points. In the third set the captain and his partner took the lead and captured the set without difficulty. In the fourth they •Iso established a commanding lead, but after coming within a single point Of taking the set, collapsed and lost the next two games and the match,
i New Lady Champion.Miss Marlon Pitts, who has for sev
eral years been lady champion of British Columbia, was dethroned on Saturday after an Interesting match m which the champion took the lead in

the second set, but failed to hold it Just when the match seemed within her grasp. Miss McDermott, though the victor, did not play qp to the standard she set.In earlier .matches. In extenuation of this it may be said that she had already played In the ladles’ doubles, and àlfeo In the mixed competition,' and was therefore ecardely In proper shape to-play off a championship single: Her pluck and stamina, however, pulled her through, ' though Miss Pitts went off very badly In the final set.
A notable victory also was that in which Miss McDermott and Mrs. Lyall accounted for Mrs. Stafford and Miss Henderson by two sets to one. The match was very hotly contested, and white Miss Henderson’s splendid service gained her side many points, tho harder driving of the new lady champion and the heady play of her partner soon brought the couple ahead.
Evans and Miss Henderson had no difficulty In rounding off a great series of victories by taking the title with a victory over Peters and Miss Leigh. Evans was the master of the situation from the first service, and though Peters did some good things, especially at the net, he was no match for the finest doubles player In Canada. Miss Henderson’s play also elicited much applause for Its clean driving and excellent service.
The conclusion of the tournament came about 6.30 when Mrs. John Foulkes. wife of the club president, presented the prizes. The secretary, in a little speech, stated that the tournament had been successful from every point of view.

DEFENDS CHRISTIAN SCIENCE.
To the Editor:—In your Issue of July 7 appeared part of a discourse on timely topics given by Dr. Cameron In Tabernacle Baptist church In which he touched upon Christian Science. We are at a lose to know how hé could mutilate his text in such a manner as to make It appear that thé seventh verse of the third chapter of second Timothy referred to women. One who would twist the scriptures to suit his own purpose -could not be expected to speak fairly of either Mrs. Eddy or her
His remarks about the discoverer and founder of Christian Science were, to say the least, very unbecoming. Those who were acquainted with Mrs. Eddy knew that her life was one of consecration to God. . It cannot be doubted that in Christian Science she has given to thSjWorld a demonstrable religion wfrloh is saving thousands daily from sickness and sin. At the present dây mere stdtimenta such as were made by the reverend gentleman cannot possibly» barm the cause of Christian Science, as It la now sq well and favorably known.
When Jesus taught Hie knowledge of Gqd to the humble heart and honest thought of His time He was called many vile names by those who were preaching In the synagogues, yet the religion of Jesus was not retarded In any way by such unbelief. It seems as though history Is repeating itself. We cannot Imagine a sermon such as was delivered healing the sick or reclaiming the sinner. We are quite sure that most of Dr. Cameron’s flock would much prefer to hear the gospel of Christ preached rather than listen to a denunciation of other Christian denominations.
Mrs. Eddy at no time claimed to be superior or even equal to Jesus, and nowhere In her writings does she state that she learned Christian Science from Quimby. It Is to be regretted that oup- critic should make such false statements under protection of the pulpit We would suggest that he mercifully withhold his criticism until he Is prepared to offer to the pqbllc a more practical religion than Christian Science.
The fact that he did not make one favorable remark about Mrs. Eddy shows that he was governed more by prejudice than a desire for Justice.

LETTER FILE SUPPORTCan Be Attached to Wall Wherever It

A wall eupport for letter files has been designed by a Massachusetts man and any business man can think of places where he would put one. A small board that can be screwed to the wall has a swinging support pivoted to It. This support consists of a long loop of wire, adapted to engage the upper portion of the file and hold the latter In the same position as If it was la a bookcase, or standing on the desk. When

ACID STOMACHS ARE DANGEROUS
Common Sense Advice by a Distinguished Specialist
Acid" stomachs are dangerous because acid Irritates and Inflames the delicate lining of the stomach, thus hindering and preventing the proper action of the stomach, and leading to probably nine- tenths of the cases of stomach trouble from which people suffer. Ordinary medicines and medicinal treatments are useless In such cases, for they leave the source of the trouble, the acid in the stomach as dangerous as ever. The acid must be neutralized and its formation prevented, and the be»t thing tor thl, purpose is a teaspoonful of Bleu rated Magnesia, a simple ant-acld, taken In a little warm or cold water after eating, which not only neutralises the acid, but also prevents the fermentation from which acidity is developed. Foods which ordinarily cause greatest distress may be eaten with impunity If the meal Is followed with a little Blsurated Magnesia, which can be obtained from any druggist, and should si ways be kept handy.
PROBLEM* OF THE DAY.
To the Editor:—In your Issue of 31st July three topics were dwelt on, all of which are or ought to be of great Interest to the cltlsens -f this province. Firstly, Mr. H. Ford’s article on the high cost of living and how to remedy It Secondly, Mr John L. Martin’s letter on the position of labor, and lastly, Mr. F. W. Frier’s interview with the Times reporter.
My sympathies are entirely with Mr. Ford and other farmers, and the evidence given before the royal commission on agriculture proves that the whole of the agricultural community of the province have complained in terms similar to those of the letter. The elimination of the middlemen can only be accomplished by co-operative selling, and except In the more closely settled districts, such as Cowlchan and Chilliwack, it is almost Impossible to start co-operative associations unless the management and organization are, at- the commencement, undertaken by the agricultural department. It Is acknowledged on all sides that agricultural conditions are In a bad way, but farmers cannot hopi for any improvement until the report of the commission Is published. It will then rest with them to see that at the next election their votes be cast according as the report Is shelved or acted on by prompt and efficient legislation.
I regret not being able to agree to the same extent with Mr. Martin. Regarding labor—although It may sound paradoxical—the supply is greater than the demand, and at the same time the demand :r greater than the supply. In other words, there are more men willing to undertake certain kinds of work than there are employers who can afford to pay them the price they demand; at the same time there are more employers wanting work done at the highest rate they can profitably pay than there are men" willing to work at this figure. Would not the working man be better off with regular employment for six days In the week at a slightly lower dally rate than receiving the higher rate for four days and 'remaining unemployed for the rest of the week? On making enquiries why this or that Industry has not been established, one receives the Invariable answer that thé cost of labor is prohibitive. Do not the labor party realise that the more industries started not only ensure more constant employment, but also strengthen their josltlon? Every working man immigrant adds one more to their voting' power. The working man’s answer IB that he Is obliged to ask a high rate on account of the high cost of living, but Is this always trust Is It not often the cost of high living rather than the high cost of livingt I know of two men, both earning about the same money. One lived comfortably and was saving sufficient to pay Instalments on a small property he had bought; the other mortgaged his property and complained that he could never make both ends meet. The reason was that he must have the best of everything, and yet he put down his inability to save to the high cost of living.
While the real estate boom le greatly responsible for high rents, the labor unions are by no means blameless. There are many vacant lots on which owners would build and let houses at reasonable rents if they could get them built at reasonable rates, but thé high
wages at bricklayer* carpenters and others prevent this |>elng done.
The labor unions have accomplished a great work by insisting that the laborer Is worthy of hie hire, but Is there not a danger of matters being
d to an extreme? By allmeans raise the rate* of wages to the highest limit that,labor profitably be, employed, but to press It beyond that limit spetiB unemployment and distress, fye labor market influences not only the amount , of unemployment but also the oost of living, and It Is better to .have a-fair but moderate wage, a lower ooet of living and no unemployment than the present state of affairs. .
One more point—the congestion of unemployed In tho cities while farmers are crying aloud for help. Is it that farm hands' wages are not high enough considering the high cost Of living? But who pays this high oost except the farmer who boards them? Unlike some capitalists, the farmer Is not seeking cheap labor that will bring him In big dividends, but Is willing to pay the highest rate that will not entail a loss to bis business. Many men from cities expect a farmer to start them on a skilled agriculturist’s fate of wages, and yet In what other trade would they receive union rates while learning their business?
Many skilled "ftleans while out, of employment hop . for better times In? stead of striking out a new line for themselves (such as farming), where there is less competition and more openings, and yet how many svooeee- ful men In this city hAv«t mails good In the business In which they first started? ...........................
As regards Mr. WrUtfe. statement. "You can’t feed the people on town lota, and If you drive the .(tlRffl out you «Imply put the people, at .the mercy of the middleman," here. Is another of the reasons for the high poet of living, and this le attributed to a great extent to real c elate dealers, but they are. compared to the total population, a mere handful of men. Then why do not those that have the voting powers Insist that vacant lots and subdivisions held for speculative purposes be unmercifully taxed?
Mr. Frier does not know where one can get land on the Island at a price which will pay to start farming. Does he suppose that Dun n and the Saanich peninsula constitute the whole Island? There Is plenty of good bush land near railways, stores and good markets that ea; be bought at $35 to $40 per acre, and considering climatic conditions, this compares favorably with Nova Scotia. I own no land oft the Island, so write without bias. I enclose my card for your information, but as I have no desire to raise a hornet’s nest by my remarks on the labor question, I will, while thanking you for this space, subscribe myself

A CHANCE FOR SIR RICHARD.
To the Editor: I am very pleased to see you have taken up the question of employment of Asiatics in the Cumberland mines. It is an undoubted fact that large numbers are being employed digging coal at about 66c. a ton. which we have to pay $7,60 for. I have been told on good authority that there gre between five and six hundred Asiatics working underground In the place. If Sir Richard is sincere why does he not as premier of the province of British Columbia take the attorney-general with him and go Immediately to Cumberland, show the mine manager a copy of the act, and notify him on his peril not to send another Asiatic underground ? Send the policemen home. It will save money to the taxpayers. Deputize a committee of good, honest mirters to see that his orders are carried out. That would very soon settle the question, and then we will begin to think that Sir Richard Is himself again and that he still stands for "a white Canada."
HERBERT PHIPPS.Victoria, August 2, 1918.
THE UNWELCOME JAP.
To the Editor:—It Is as well that Australia means to resort to no half measures in the matter of her exclusion of the Jap. Rigid exclusion and nothing else will suit Australia. It would be' as well to avoid making two bites at the apple and settle the question as an Imperial one now and once for all.
It Is a pity that the Right Hon. Andrew Fisher, In expressing his views on the subject, criticised the Anglo-Jap aneee alliance. Had he left this matter entirely alone his statement would have not only carried much weight, but would have done great good. In the manner that he clearly and decidedly expressed the general feeling of the King’s subjects towards the Japanese as neighbors he will be dubbed correct almost unanimously, and for this he Is entitled to respect, but his criticism of the policy of the Imperial government on the matter of the Anglo-Japanese alliance Is not the action of a statesman. Even provided that the Inferences that he has drawn were true, or even approximately correct, he must surely know that such criticism must put obstacles In the way of those statesmen In whose hands the foreign affairs of the Empire are placed.
It may be a bold statement to make that the late premier of the Australian Commonwealth Is entirely wrong In the conclusions that he has drawn touching the alliance, but he seems to Jump at an hypothesis affecting Britain and the United States whereby Britain would appear to have placed In the hands of Japan the weighty question of war or peace between the two powers. Mr. Fisher seems to entirely ignore the fact that it lies with Britain whether Japan shall be allowed to make war or not. He seems not to have noticed the fact that It was only the forethought of British diplomatists that kept Europe at rest and confined tho Japanese-Russlan war to those two powers alone. When. Britain saw that war between Russia was Inevitable there was grave doubt as to what ao tlon France would take In the matter. Had France co-operated with her ally Russia Just when the war clouds were gathering. It would have set Germany loose In Europe. The Anglo-Japanese alliance has done more to prevent trouble between Japan, and the United States than had there been no alliance at all. The alliance between Britain and Japan Is hot a source of strength

to Britain. That waa not the purpoee for which It was Intended, It waa intended to preserve the peace of the world, and ao far it haa fulflUed Its purpose. Had the alliance brought entra strength to Britain, the probable effect In Europe would have been some re-arrangement of the Powers which would have had the effect of upsetting the balance which it haa always been Britain's object to maintain.
There le ample room for Japan In the Western Pacific and In the northern hemisphere without her encroaching on the spheres of Influence of Britain and the United States, and since the alliance gives Britain a hold over Japan It would be as well if some satisfactory understanding could be arrived at between Britain and the United States on the one hand and japan on the other on the all Important question of Immigration while that alliance still éxlsta. Since nothing but rigid exclusion would seem to meet the case, it would be to the better understanding of all parties concerned that
Japan be on the same footing with either power. C.B.8.

Within thirty days dredging at the mouth of the Pitt river will be commenced. and within a year a 26-foot channel from the Fraser, river to the first deep pool north of Douglas Island must be completed, involving the removal of 876,060 cubic yards of sand and detritus.
The contract for this work Is awarded to the Pacific Dredging Company, the big concern now engaged In removing 2.700.000 yards of earth and rock from the bed of False creek.

The first act Interdicting the adulteration of coffee with chicory was passed In England slxty-one years ago. The mixture of chicory with coffee had then reached such a point that the loss to the government In excise tax amounted to 8600.000 a year. The substitution was scarcely less widespread In America, but practice 1- ly ceased some t.ilrty years ago, owing to the cheapness of the genuine article. The English prohibition of chicory adulteration was soon amended so that the mixed articie cduld be sold In packages bearing the label, "Mixture of Coffee and Chicory." and this mixture is still sold In tremendous quantities to the poorer people of England. Chicory Itself, although abundant and cheap, has not escaped adulteration, and has been found mixed'with acorns, rye, roasted wheat, carrots, and evc.t oak bark -owder and exhausted tar or "Croats.” Chicory, or succory, as it Is called In some parts of England, Is a wild variety of endive, and bel ont i to the same famll. as the dandelion. It grows wild c.V over Europe ant’ in parts of America. The root is fleshy and milky, aud was formerly largely used tor medicinal . purposes. When used as a coffee adulterant the roots are dried and reduced to powder. Chlpory contains very little of nutritive properties, and Its continued ute Is often deleterious to the nervous sys- tfm.

TO-DAY IN CANADIAN HISTORY
y pen this date, In 1613, Sir Thomas Button — an English adventurer, and “the first navigator who reached the western side of Hudson's Bay”—discovered Mansels Islands. In the far north Of* What iW no'w the Dominion of Canada. He had been sent oiit by Henry, Prince of Wales, In 1612, with Instructions to observe and enter in a book, which was to be delivered to the Prince at the end of the 1 voyage—-“the tides and currents, the elevation and variation of the compass, and the latitude as well as the distance of the moon from any fixed stars of note." Sir Thomas was in command of the Resçlutlon, and was accompanied by Captain Ingram in the Discovery. They stayed for a few days at Dlggee Island (appointed as the rendesvous for the two ships) and, after falling in with some land to which Button gave the fantastic name of “Carry Swan's Nest," wintered at a river's mouth, named Port Nelson, after the master of the Resolution, who died there. "The men suffered severely from sickness," but when the ice broke up they sailed as far as sixty-five degrees north, and their “dlscoveriëi gave fresh hopes for a northwest passage."
Two hundred and twenty-four years ago to-day the little village of Lachlne, at the upper end of Montreal Island, was unusually peaceful and silent. The unaccustomed heat had driven most of the Inhabitants Indoors, and scarce a sound was to be heard. The weather- wise, cocking eyes upward, predicted that the heat and the calm presaged a storm. They were right, for at nlglit a furious tempest broke over the island. The rain poured down In blinding sheets, and the gale howled, but the roar of the elements could not drown out the human screams and prayers and groans and cries that were uttered by redskin victors and paleface vie tims. That night the Indians came down on LgChlne, and the horror of the massacre is not to be described. There were fifteen hundred In the savage horde, all animated by the spirit of revenge and the lust for blood, and the French were taken by surprise, slaughter was complete, and marked by all the tortures that fiendish Ingenuity could invent. When the people and soldiers of Montreal gazed on the, scene of carnage and rapine at Lachlne, the blood In their veins turned to water, and, for the time New France wag stunned into a lethargy of horror. It was not until the return of Frontenac that they again plucked up courage to retaliate on the Iroquois. The massacre at Lachlne, and similar onslaughts on the scattered settlements of New France, were the result of the treachery of Governor DeuonvUle, who, two years before, had Invited a number of. chiefs tq a conference and to smoke the pipe of peace, and there made his guests prisoners and sent them to France. The remaining chiefs of the Five Nations cried aloud for vengeance, and the cry was echoed by the Iroquois throughout New France, with terrible results.

THE HUMAN PROCESSIONIs It unwise and dangerous for a
monarch to be too democratic?At some of the courts of Europe this
question Is being answered in the affirmative, and King Haakon VII. of Norway, is referred to as a horrible example. The Norwegian ruler, who has beep called Haakon the Democrat ever since he was elected to the throne In 1906, will pass his forty-first milestone Sunday. It Is predicted by many European observers that he will be the last, as he Is the first, of his line, and that the years of hie life will number the years of the monarchy In Norway. Dispatches from Christiania allege that the King and Queen Maud, who jvas the Princess Maud Charlotte, third daughter of King Edward VII., share in this pessimistic view, and tear that their son, ten-year-old Crown Prince Olav, will never be permitted to ascend the throne.
The republican and socialistic propaganda has made great progress In Norway during the last year, and It la predicted that the radicals will soon gain control of the Sthorthing. The conservative press of Christiania Is inclined to blame Haakon for his "extreme democracy, liberality and tolerance."
King Haakon VIL was Prince Karl of Denmark, a younger brother of the present Danish king, before he assumed the honors and cares of klnf-
ehlp. At the time of his nomination as monarch he refused to accept the crown until a general plebiscite was taken. This proved that the Norwegians were overwhelmingly In favor of the Danish prince, and he reluctantly abandoned the naval career he had chosen for himself to ascend a throne. As a king Haakon receives 8140,000 a year, which, relatively speaking, is a niggardly salary.
.During the last year Haakon has been openly flouted and derided in the Storthing, and the constitution has been amended so as to deprive him of practically everything connected with kingship, except the name and the salary. Over two-thirds of the members of the legislative body are anti-monarchists.
A Socialistic dally newspaper of Christiania recently published a cartoon of the King, who was depicted in contemplative and melancholy mood, saying to himself: “In my native Denmark every n\an is now as good as the king, but here in Norway every man is better."
A year ago the Norwegians celebrated the King's birthday by returning Gunnar Knud sen, "the king-hater" to power. What little surprise they will give their beloved ruler this year remains to be seen.
The Earl of Aberdeen, Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland and former Governor- General of Canada, was born sixty- six years ago Sunday, The title of the distinguished statesman dales from 1682, while a baronetcy of Nova Scotia was conferred forty yearii earlier. The Countess, who was a daughter of the first Baron Tweedmouth, recently visited America with Mies Violet Asquith, daughter of the prime m*-*—— 1

WELL-MEN (MEN PASSES AWAY TODAY
Thomas H. Tighe, Partner in Firm of Tighe & Wheeler,
Dies at Hospital
The death occurred this morning at St. Joseph’s hospital of one of Victoria’s best-known figures, in the person of Thomas H. Tighe, of 1029 Oliphant street, and a partner in the firm of Tighe A Wheeler. The late Mr. Tighe’s fame was more than local, and there are probably few men In the province or on the Pacific coast who in their lives have enjoyed more widespread popularity or a larger circle of friends than he.
A native of Cape Breton, and brought up In the state of Massachusetts, Mr. Tighe migrated to the west while a comparatively young man, and his attention was first called to the North Pacific coast about 18 years ago when the rush of gold seekers were pushing their way up to Alaska. Entering the ranks of active prospectors there he became known in later years as one of the pioneers of that country, and his name was known to nearly all the miners who penetrated to the mining district in the early days. He was no less popular in Goldfield, Nevada, where he was in business for some ten years with the partner whose name wap associated with his in this city during the past few years. The combination was popular, and Tighe A Wheeler again Joined forces on coming to this city two years ago, both the members of the firm winning in both places a local esteem which brought them many friends and acquaintances.
Three weeks ago Mr. Tighe was removed to the hospital suffering from cancer, for which an operation was perfhriTTbd, this however, being too late to save the patient’s life. He was 57 years of age, and is survived by hip widow, also a sister and brother who live In one of the prairie cities.
Mr. Tighe, who was a member of the local aerie of Eagles, the Elks lodge and the Knights of Pythias, passed away at an early hour this morning. The funeral will take place on Wednesday morning at 8.45 from the Sands- Fulton Undertaking parlors and fifteen minutes later from the Roman Catholic cathedral. The graveside services will be In charge of the Eagles.
The deceased left a wide circle of friends In the city, all of whom extend the deepest sympathy to the widow in her bereavement.
MAY TAKE OVER BRIDGE.
Premier Bays Government Will Net Put as Expensive Structure at
Vsneeuver as Proposed.
Representatives of the Burrard Inlet Tunnel and Bridge company laid before the premier, the attorney-general and finance minister this morning the formal proposal of the board that the provincial government assume control of the Second Narrows bridge project and build the proposed structure at Vancouver. No definite answer was forthcoming. Sir Richard McBride intimated that the province might take over the intermunicipal enterprise but would not construct an expensive -bridge like the one planned by Sir John Wolfe Barry and associates.
The financial statys of the company at the present time was explained by F. Carter Cotton, president. The premier said that a structure which would serve the needs of the north and sound of Burrard Inlet for many years to come could be built at considerably less cost than the £2,500,000 bridge designed by the English engineers.
Those In the delegation comprised the president Mayor Hanes, North Vancouver; Aid. Vance, North Vancouver; Aid. Woodalde, city Vancouver; Reeve May, Councillors Bridgman and Lou let, North Vancouver; Reeve Lawson. West Vancouver.
Mr. Cotton said that if the bridge was not constructed according to Sir John Wolfe Barry's plans some embarrassment might be caused at Ottawa as the government engineers had been particularly Impressed with the English engineer’s designs. He also pointed out that if a less expensive bridge than the one planned were built the municipalities that had bought stock and would donate the amounts to the government in the event of it assuming control, might object*
NO REQUEST HERECanneries of Fraser River Have Net
Asked Local Militia Authorities for Protection.
No request has been made to the militia authorities here for protection by the can- ners of the Fraser river. It would In the ordinary course have to be made to the Militia Department at Ottawa, and If any troops were to be ordered out It le likely that those in New Westminster and Vancouver would be the first to be sent.
C. F. Todd, of J. H. Todd A Sons, told the Times to-day that there would be no shortage of fish at the canneries If the operators are given protection In their operation. All the fish that would be needed to keep them running can be had across the line, and can be purchased there at a cheaper rate than Is being paid the British Columbia fishermen by the canner», he said. Mr. Todd spoke warmly of the action of the men, who, just as the season is at its busiest, go on strike. They will Injure no one but themselves by their act, he declares.

CARNIVAL DRAWS GAY CROWDS TO CITY
Unusual Large Number of Visitors Throng Streets; Chil
dren Much in- Evidence
Carnival week has commenced, and already the crowds are gathering to participate in the first organised event of the kind which has taken place Jn the city of Victoria. At an early hour this morning the streets showed an unusual activity, both as regards the number of pedestrians and in respect to traffic. Gaily decorated motor cars laden with slght-seerS and visitors plied about the city or threaded their way along the more busy thoroughfares on their way to the more popular shore drive, and some of the prettier outlying roads near by the city. The electric cars bore In addition to their usual quota of business men and w omen on their way to town an evergrowing load of holiday-makers, who came to the city early in qrder to be in at the beginning of the week’s fun.
Although the weather so far Is doing all that the most exacting might ask in the way of good things, the cltixens themselves are doing their share by putting on their holiday attire and wearing fhelr best smile of welcome to the many visitors who are every hour
vlng in the city from points on the alnland and other parts of the Island.
fluttering pennants and gatly- lored flags and streamers of bunting !d to the general atmosphere of hap-
iness befitting a gala week, and every fncident of the street draws a crowd the instant the cr. is sounded that something unusual has occurred.
Crowds gathered along the Dallas road and at every vantage point on the higher buildings of,the city to see the two big fighting- vessels steam into -s- quimalt this morning, and the roofs of the Pemberton block, the Plther & Leiser building, the Hlbben-Bone block, the Campbell building, the new Union club, etc., each bore their groups of spectators who eyed the formidable vessels as they cut their direct course toward their anchoring ground. .A fire call about noonday drew a crowd in an Instant, and a horse that broke loose from its halter and wandered down the street was watched by hundreds of passers-by who were idle for any entertainment of the moment.
Hundreds of school children are abroad with their elders, and were seen drinking in the anticipatory delights of a ride on the merry-go-round on View street, while the shadowy outline of “Aunt Sally’’ and the cocoanut shy, which, together with numerous refreshment booths and shouting wags with funny things to sell, occupy the one-time burnt-out area, are proving a great draw to the school boy who is lucky enough to still possess a few dimes of his summer holiday pocket
Rubber balloons in all colors are beginning to make their appearance In the streets—a sure forerunner of the festival spirit—while flags of every known nation confront the visitor in the hands of Victoria’s multf-nationed denizens.
Hindus and Chinese children. In their dress, afford a picturesque touch, while these people themselves are turning out with every Intention of welcoming the visitors and participating to the full in all the festivities of the moment.
The big gas balloon behind the Empress has also had a steady, If thin, thread of visitors all morning, and every boat arriving at the harbor has been met by an unusually large representation of Victorians. Carnival week Is here, and Victoria as h-*st and hostess, is all attention to give its guests a hearty welcome.
TRAFFIC IS HEAVYTransportation Companies Are Bene
fiting From Influx of Carnival Makers.
The various transportation companies in the city are profiting hugely from the coming of carnival week, and the traffic on all lines, and., on the regular boats entering this port, has been particularly heavy this week-end. In this way also the hotels have garnered large registrations, and many of them are already almost full to capacity. The Empress had an unusually large Sunday entry yesterday, most of the people signing being from across th* line. There is also at the Empress, staying for a few days of carnival, a party of Parisians who are making a world-encircling tour.
The electric street railway carried close on fifty thousand over its lines Saturday, and though the official returns for Sunday are not yet in, It is expected that the Sunday traffic will be found much greater than that of Saturday. To-day also the local cars were filled to the doors, especially on those lines on which special carnival events are taking place, such as the Willows for polo, Uplands for the Cad boro Bay motor boat races, and Beacon Hill for the opening. On these lines all records were smashed, and the whole week ought to show a big advance on any figures that have yet been published.
The Canadian Pacific railway steamship line reports crowded boats from Vancouver and Seattle this week-end. Large crowds of Seattle people embarked for the Sound city on Saturday and yesterday and will help to swell the tprongs In the streets during this week. The Grand Trunk Pacific state that their boats from Seattle were also filled to capacity, though the official figures for the week-end are not available. The Esquimau A Nanaimo railway brought In crowds of people from points on the line up to Albeml and along the branch from Cowlchan lake, all travelling to the same Mecca of fun-making and conviviality. Similarly the Inter-urban tapping the peninsula added its quota to the crowd of sightseers, who will make Victoria their home for the whole or at least a part of this her carnival week.
GARRISON MADE CREDITABLE DRAW
Scored 200 Against Crack Albion Bowlers; Other
Matches
Garrison made a very creditable draw with a strong Albion eleven at the Work Point grounds on Saturday, and incidentally furnished a surprise In knocking a .score of over two hundred against bowlers srtjo have this Reason mowed down such fine batting sides as Vancouver and Victoria for very small scores. The chief contribué tlon to the soldiers’ total was a half century by that sterling cricketer As- key, who went In*first and carried his bat half way through the innings for exactly fifty runs. Robertson also used the Willow to some purpose in knocking up 42.
Albipn scored 176 for 5 wickets before stumps were drawn, and therefore may properly be said to have had the better of the draw. Every man who went In ran up to double figures, E. W. Iemay giving a nice display for 40, while Pegler ran up 30 in his own characteristic way. Milne did fairly well both with bat and ball, scoring 29 and taking four wickets for a little under eighteen runs apiece. Albion used no fewer than seven trundlers, while Garrison found work for six.

Hewett’s Eleven vs. Reeve’s Eleven.Two scratch teams played an enjoyi-
able game at Jubilee Hospital Saturday, Reeve’s eleven winning finally by 23 runs. For the Oak Bay boys Schwengers played a very careful game for twenty not out, going in first wicket down and remaining unbeaten to the close, while Coppinger and Denniston also ran into double figures. Gray and Yorke both bowled very well for the locals, the latter taking three for 16, and the former three for 27. York and Gray also shared the batting honprs for Reeves’ side, York knocking up a nice score of 44, while Gray helped the score on with 20, Major scored 18.

National Trust Owns Fifty- Nine Properties; Box Hill
to Be Purchased
London, Aug. 4.—Box hill, the pleasant down which, owing to its imposing height, dominates the country around Dorking, is about to be purchased for the nation.
Sif Robert Hunter made the first public announcement of this acquisition at the meettyig of the National Trust, and said that the trust had had its eye upon Box hill, and had been doing its utmost to procure it for the nation for some years past.
The present negotiations were not Quiet completed but the donor whose name is to be secret, was In communication with the owners and there appeared to be no doubt that the matter would be carried to a successful Issue before long. When the purchase is concluded Box hyi will be put into the hands of some public body in trust for the nation, to be preserved in perpetuity. Had this offer not been made, the National Trust would ere now have been petitioning for funds to secure the nfcost Important portion of the hill as a public playground.
On the whole the National Trust have collected over £50,000 In donations and annual subscriptions, and have acquired no less than 69 properties, which were In danger of being built over or otherwise destroyed, as pleasant open spaces. During tbeSast year the Fln- champstead ridges near Wellington College have been purchased and the wide common of Minchlnhampton, above the Golden valley In Gloucestershire, has become the property of the
The most important undertaking in hand at present is the preservation of Queen Adelaide’s hill at Windermere pending the collection of a further £609 to complete its purchase. Mlcken fen and Blakeney point have been bought Hor the express purpose of retaining some specimen of the peculiar wild and untouched character of scenery that these represent. Every one has been rejoicing very recently over the opening of Colley hill as a public possession.

MUCH ADULATION FOR SIR RICHARD
Conservative Picnic Proves Field Day of Bouquets for
Prime Minister
Absolutely the finest people In the world are Victoria Conservative». All doubt upon this point was set at rest Saturday when they held their annual picnic to . (Coldstream. Not only did they adn.it It themselves b“( Leonard Tait and Haro Barnard said so too A further proof, if one be needed, te the high development of the oa^'"» virtue—patience. No more striking a monstration of this was ever given than the way they stood around In a sweltering sun for two hours listening to this list of spellbinders — Boggle Hayward. A. <3. Sarglson. |Leo"a,",Talti R H. Pooley. Frank Shepherd.Harry Barnartl. Bob Greene. Dr.Young, and last but not least (inmultiplicity- of words) Sir RichardMcBride. K.C.M.G., K.C.. LIxD., M.P.P- Most of the other speakers had M.P. a and J. P.!s and such letters after their names but with the exception of the first minister they all x forgot them ana became for the day Just Harry and Bill and Frank and Leonard ana
The deep laid plan which underlies •arty picnics Is the enticing of a lot •r merry-making young fellows with their families out to some place where they can hold races and athletic contests. Then when the crowds are feeling fine the ambitious politicians go around among them, pat the victors on tho back, jolly the losers and make friends with the small boys. They will have votes some day, too. But the fiendish part of the plot always happens Just about S o'clock when the president of the ward associations, or whatever it is, sends around a lot of fellows with megaphones telling the crowds that the Hero of the Hour has arrived and has consented to speak. Nobody knew he was coming or that there would be any speeches. Oh,
Sir Richard the Hero.Sir Richard McBride was the Hero of
the Hour Saturday. Very muclR so- Mr Hayward was the first speaker. He said he would not speak long as Sir Richard McBride was to follow. Leonard Tait came next. He said the British race was the finest race on earth, and that Canadians were the best Britishers and that the best Canadians were to be found in British Columbia and that Sir Richard McBride was the finest type of British Columbia statesman. R. H. Pooley. M.P.P.. welcomed Sir Richard McBride and the plcnlcers to his constituency.
F H. Shepherd. M.P.. refrained from making more than a few comments upon the shameful showing of Cana dlans In not coming forward to the de fence of the Empire by subscribing to the Borden naval policy, because, as he said, he knew the crowd was waiting to hear a few words from Sir Richard McBride.
H. F. Barnard. M.P., referred to the fact (?) that It was Just two years ago on this spot that Sir Richard McBride had made his famous speech which had sounded the death knejl of the Laurier government and had effectually disposed of reciprocity. He also extended Leonard Tail’s elimination of the races In picking out the finest people on earth. He said that the best people in British Codumbla were to be found on Vancouver Island, and that the pick of the Island’s population was In Victoria add that the best people in Victoria were Conservatives. This remark- struck a popular chord.
Not Barnard’s Fault.R. F. Green, M.P., let the cat out of
the bag when he said that Victoria had got its various government grants, not because Its member had had any pull, but because the city deserved them. (Confusion in Mr. Barnard’s corner of the platform.) He refrained from speaking any longer because he did not wish to take Sir Richard fMcBride's time. One last loving tribute was paid to the provincial premier by his colleague, the Hon. Dr. Young, and then the Hero of the Hour was brought forward.
Oratory, eloquence, dramatic expression gesticulation, language, flowed from him. Dealing with the navy ques tion Sir Richard said Canada ought to give five dreadnaugh Instead of three. Dealing with the Oriental question he said he defied the British parliament or the House of Commons to Interfere with the right of the people of British Columbia to control their own affairs. He said he was In favor of keeping this province for white people. He admired the Japanese and all that sort of thing, but It wouldn't do to have them in this province. He denied the right of any government to give away by treaty any right of the people of this province to control their own Industrial affairs. He was doing his best to keep out the Asiatics and would continue to do so to the last point.
Interrupter Sat On.An Ill-advised person In the centre of
the ciowd chanced to ask Sir Richard why he didn't keep them out then. Perhaps he had learned that 600 Orientals came In on the Empress of Russia that day, and 250 on a boat on Friday. But from his exalted position on the hotel balcony Sir Richard effectually squashed this unruly follower. ;
••I am keeping them out,” the premier answered. "What are you doing to kefp them out? I can't see this Person who interrupted me. I think thei must! be more wind than substance to him" Then recollecting himself, he continued his speech as rehearsed in ativaiice.

So the McClary agent told him how careful McClary’s were to use the very best materials. That nothing was considered too good for the Sunshine.
He told about the fine quality of the steel used in the dome and radiator. He explained how the cup-joint construction provided ample room for the contraction and expansion of the fire-pot.
He told him about the fire-pot made of smooth close-grained semi-steel—a material that destructive sulphur fumes cannot penetrate.
He showed him how, by changing around the sides of the three-sided grate bars every day or two, the life of the grates was made three-fokl.
He showed him the Urge feed and ash pit doors, convenient water.pan, ample ash pan, and, In short, everything about the Sunshine. , t<
When the agent was through, Mr. Burn» shook him cordially by the hand, thanked him for bis frankness—and walked out, without giving the agent a^ chance to close the sale.
But next day, Mr. Bums’ architect ’phoned the McClary agent and told him he had an order for him to install a Sunshine Furnace In a new houses ^

The West Virginia, like all her class, has four funnels,
Almost as soon as the cruiser had taken up her berth launch parties began to put out to her. The officers cordially received those who desired to Inspect here. As with all American warships, cameras tabooed.
The West Virginia will stay In port till Sunday next, according to present arrangements, and both officers and crew are expecting a good time while hi Victoria.
H. M. 8. New Zealand was warmly welcomed back after the round of festivities which have occurred while the vessel was anchored In Burrard Inlet, In which Vancouver city, North Vancouver, New Westminster, and other city authorities shared. The public welcomed the vessel because of her brief stay a few days agj. and because <4 a desire to see something of the prowess of the jolly tars. She took up the same berth In Esquimau harbor as prévlously allotted to her, and will be again open to visitors on the same terms as formerly. She will be decorated at night ftir the festivities, as' she was in Vancouver. It is expected that she will be a point of great attraction as her myriad lights, outlining every Dart of her hull, masts anà funnels, blaze forth in the night, and her numerous great searchlights play about the sky and surrounding land with their brilliant beams.
The arrival of the New Zealand at Esquimau harbor was again the cause of considerable Interest among special ore. Very shortly after taking up her be^th a series of semaphore signals wak exchanged with the signalling staff on shore at the naval yards, the watchers following the movements of the flags with Interest.
lA guard of honor was supplied by the îjfeiw Zealand for the Lieut.-Governor this afternoon at the formal opening cereiqony of the carnival at Beacon Hill. ’

of Agriculture, "in order to see what o are doing towards the solution of the very questions which are troubling you.
“You have the advantage of a large area and a varied climate. We have a small area, but an equally varied climate. (Laughter and cheers.) You have the advantage of all the energy of youth; we arc hampered by conditions which have occasionally got out* of touch with P ?sent-day requirements. But our sol| has never been exhausted, and we are discovering how rich the oldest of agricultural countries can remain. (Qjieers.)
"We have lonj been compelled, as you qre now being compelled, to coax, to bribe, to flog the land In order to induce it to do Its duty, and I may be permitted to say that our yield of wheat Is still the largest in the world —32 bushels an acre. (Cheers.)
Our large men tell me they are making no profIL But I cm bound to admit that they seem to do very we ‘ out of it. (Laughter and cheers.) We < have greet hopes cf the small men. (Cheers.)
Wé feel that they will never be able to do the best for themselves unless they .are prepared to combine to buy the necessaries of their business and sell their produce. We look to the time when the British farmer will abandon his fanaticism for Individual action. (Cheers.) We hope to iee him with large crops, a comfortable homestead, the pride of our race and the envy of the rest of the world.” (Cheers.)
The American Ambassador. In replying to the toast, said Hu- deputation was interested, not so much in the cultivation of the soil, as the cultivation of men. (Cheers.) It was not an accident that the present Secretary of Agriculture in the United States was one of the foremost economists In the country.
Dr. Henry Butterfield. Dt. Clarence Owen, Mr. David Lubln and Dr. B. M. Tory also responded.

HOW CARNIVAL IDEA MATED HERE
Twelve Months Ago First Proposal Was Made; Organiza
tion and Programme\
The Idea of the Victoria Carnival Week, which begins to-day, dates from the farewell smoker to the Flying Legion, on August 28 last, and thus its fruition comes after practically twelve months. The committee which organized the reception to that party of San Francisco capitalists last summer formed Itself Into a permanent organisation with the same officers and set to work on the plans. As the plans took shape It was found dcHrable to make it something more than a water carnival, as suggested by W. L. Hathaway, of San Francisco, who had urged his hearers to crystalIse into action the sentiments expressed at that farewell gathering.
Mr. Hathaway himself donated a trophy for American vessels, and also helped to organize the insurance congress, being an insurance man himself.
The question of cost has been a considerable factor. The committee set $50,000 as the mark. With the funds collected by committees allotted to the various classes of citizens, the committee has laid out the programme, placing the money over a large field, so as to Include as many functions as possible. Two large public meetings were held to lay the claims of the Carnival before the citizens. The first was at the city hall during Mr. Beckwith's short tenure of the mayoralty this term, and the other was held later at the Alexandra Club. There have been two appeals to the public for subscriptions this year.
The date was fixed to avoid clashing jicith other festivals on the coast and the annual agricultural exhibitions of the fall. The various steamship companies on this side and American interests of importance, like the Inland Navigation Company, have offered to assist, and special steamers will bring hundreds from Vancouver, New Westminster, Bellingham. Anacortes, Seattle, and Tacoma, during the next few days.
Victoria Is particularly adapted to sport of all kinds, and there Is every assurance that the many playing fields and recreation parfcs around the city will be alive with figures In holiday clothing during the next few days. All varieties of amusement have been provided for in the celebration, but greatest emphasis of all has been laid on yachting, for which Victoria's attractive bays and coves Invite the visitor.
The committee which has organized the carnival includes Alderman Cuth- bert, chairman; F. A. Pauline, vice- chairman; Randolph Stuart, secretary; A. von Glrsewald, treasurer, and a number of prominent citizens as chairmen of the sub-committees.

SCION OF HOUSE OF ROTHSCHILD HERE
On Round of World Trip From Frankfurt, Where Family
First Originated
Among the guests at the Empress hotel Is a member of the world-famous family of Rothschild, who Is making a tour of the world and arrived here on the Empress of Russia when she berthed Saturday. His name Is B. von Goldschmidt Rothschild, and his home tow*, is Frankfurt on the Main, the town from which the famous family originally sprang.
The history of the Jewish family, which has acquired an unexampled position from the magnitude of its financial transactions; Is little known, hnd the arrival here of a branch of the famous tree from the very spot where first it flourished, recalls the founder of the house who was one Mayer Anselm, the son of Anselm Moses Bauer, a small merchant who kept shop In the crooked ways of the historic* city which saw the birth of Goethe.
His father wished Mayer to become a rabbi, but Instead he set up as a money lender at the sign of the “Red Shield” (Rothschild.) He had Already acquired some standing as a banker when his numismatic tastes obtained for him the friendship of William, ninth landgrave, and afterwards elector ef Hesse-Cassel, who In 1801 made him his agent. When the landgrave was compelled to flee the country on the entry of tjie French, he placed his silver and other bulky treasure in the hands of Rothschild, who took charge of them, and burled them In a comer of his garden, whence he took them at such times as he desired to dispose of them.
Mayer’s five sons soon established branches of the firm at Vienna, London, Paris and Naples. By a system of co-operation and Joint counsels, aided by the skilful employment of subordinate agents, they obtained unexampled opportunities of acquiring an accurate knowledge of the condition of the financial market, and practically embraced the whole of Europe in their financial network.
The colossal Influence of the house of Rothschild dates from an operation of Nathan Mayer In 1810. In that year Wellington made some drafts which the British Government could not meet. These were purchased by Rothschild at a liberal discount and renewed to the government, which finally redeemed them at par.
Was at Waterloo.From this time the powers negotiat
ed loans to carry on the war against Napoleon chiefly through the House of Rothschild, who never lost faith In the ultimate overthrow of the Emperor, his all being virtually staked In the contest. He is said to have been personally present at the battle of Waterloo. Being able to transmit to London private Information of the allies’ success several hours before It reached the public, he effected an enormous profit by the purchase of stock, which had been depressed by the news of Blucher’s defeat two days previously.
It was by his capital that the earliest railways were built in France. He negotiated large loans for the Bourbons and at the revolution of 1848 was a heavy loser and had to be protected for a time by a special guard.
The unity of the interests of the several members of the firm has been preserved by the system of Intermarriages which has been the general practice of the descendants of the five brothers.
PIGEONS FLEW HOMEForty-One Birds Released From
Steamer Prince George Opposite Pert Townsend.
Forty-one pigeons were let loose from the deck of the G. T. P. steamer Prince George Sunday at 12.21 p. m. directly opposite Port Townsend by a member of the newly-organized Victoria Homing Society. The birds were all under three months of age and this was their first flight Several of them belonging to F. Smith and Bossom Brothers reached their lofts early In the afternoon, but others did not return until this morning. The results are considered very satisfactory for a first flight of young birds, especially as the day was exceedingly hazy.
J. Booth was the member who took the birds out on the boat. He carried them in two baskets and the pigeons attracted a great deal of attention on board the Grand Tronic steamer. When the time came for the flight special permission was procured from the officers of the ship to go aft on the forbidden part of the hurricane deck, so that when the birds flocked out they would not bump each other against the rigging and Injure themselves. The lids were lifted at exactly 12.21 p. m. and the whole 41 birds flocked out with a rush. Several passengers who had cameras snapped them just as the birds were rushing out and all the passes g ere came aft to watch the beginning of the flight The birds all stayed together for some minutes, circling about above the spot where they started and the haze was so dense that they were still circling when the people on board ship lost sight of them.
The Homing Society was organized this spring with 17 members. A pair of pedigree# homers from the Old Country were procured $nd most of the birds that took * u * ‘ ** are their progei hold à race on ~Bellingham.

WILL LOOK OVER PLANSSchool Board Considers Offerings In
Competitive Tost for Holly* wood School.
Architects are anxious to know what the city school board will do about the competitive plans for the new Hollywood school, and in order not to keep the matter in further suspense the trustees determined to hold a special meeting this afternoon to decide what steps are to be taken in making a selection from the 21 competitive désigna As the regular meeting* is not till Auerust 13. it was thought that matters would be unnecessarily delayed. The accommodation Is badly needed In the re-arrangement of the classes at some of the adjacent existing schools.
Ever since the George Jay school was constructed the heating plant has been the subject of difficulty with the contractors, and correspondence has flowed copiously on the matter. Early this summer the board sent an ultimatum to the contractors that unless the work was undertaken by July 81 the work would be carried out, and charged up to the contractors. That

PLAYED NEW COMPOSITION.
Fifth Regiment Band Performs Bantlsy’s March During Pleasing
Programme.
The first performance of Benedict Bantley’s carnival march took place in Beacon Hill park yesterday afternoon, when the Fifth Regiment band made It the chief item of an unusually good programme. Mr. Bantley was In the bandstand himself, and expressed himself afterwards as greatly pleased with the manner in which the band had rendered his composition.
At the opening and close of the programme the march was played, so that everyone of the thousands who attended the concert heard it. The march forms a notable addition to the work Mr. Bantley has done as a composer, and will serve to remind citizens as well as visitors of the place Victoria occupies as a musical centre*
It is somewhat of the German school and moves along wltn a spirit of brightness and gaiety. Throughout the movement is dignified and at the same time it is of a character to be easily caught by those with a musical ear
The rendition of the entire programme served once more to demonstrate that the musicians whom Sergeant-Major Rogers has gathered together In the regimental band, to the number of thirty-nine, form one of the best military bands on the Pacific coast Time and again they have delighted assemblies of Victorians and visitors to the city and gained the praise of those who have heard other bands elsewhere and are in a position to make a comparison of value.
A selection from “Tannhauser" was among the additions to the repertoire of the band, and was well-rendered. While It was naturally rather more classical than the general public are accustomed to it proved to be a welcome number. For the first time at an open-air performance a new fantasia of Irish, Scotch and English airs was played and was applauded generously. Other numbers played included the overture from "Peter Sohmoll," end selections from "Samson et Dëllla," "Un

Some Persons‘Flinch"
When TruthHunts Them
“If any man is able to convince me and show me that I do not think or act right, I will gladly change, for I seek the truth, by which no man was ever injured.”—Marcus Aurelius, Roman Emperor.
Some shrink and try to close their eyes and ears to the haunting fact that the little 1% to 3 grains of Caffeine in every average cup of tea or coffee is the demon which relentlessly pursues and starts various ailments, such as biliousness, headache, nervousness, sleeplessness, bowel trouble, heart failure and a long string Of aches and ails, taking
' one form in one person and another in another.
The effect of repeated doses of tea or coffee, on those who are susceptible to caffeine poisoning, is so complex that it is difficult to foretell where its hurt will be most serious ; in Heart, Head, Eyes, Nerves or where.
The stroke of trouble will come somewhere if the daily doses are persisted in.
Of course if anyone prefers to treat his body in that way it is useless to suggest relief.
Let him “follow the trail” until badly woundedSome go so far they can’t get back to health. Others quit
the foolish, losing game before fixed chronic disease sets in.
There is a mighty army of sensible Ones, however, who have bravely tested the truth with their own bodies to see whether or not it was the truth that tea and coffee caused their ailments.
It’s an easy test. Quit tea and coffee absolutely for 10days. Take Postum hot and well-made and keep track of the change toward health day by day.
It’s the most exquisite pleasure in the world to be perfectly well with all the delicate and beautifully adjusted machinery of the body working in harmony, not interfered with by drugs, one of the most insidious and deceptive of which is caffeine in tea and coffees
This is Truth.Meet it bravely with head up and a hearty handclasp.
Truth thus made welcome will prove your best friend.
These are facts without regard to our own opinion, or to whether or not you use Postum.
However it is well to consider that famous food-drink because it supplies a hot beverage of deep seal-brown color, which turns to the rich golden-brown when cream is added.
It has a snappy flavor, but there is no “sting” in it, no caffeine or other drug of any sort. It is skilfully manufactured of wheat and a trace of New Orleans molasses.
It comes in two forms. One called Regular Postum, must bo boiled full 15 minutes.
The other, Instant Postum, is id powder form and a level teaspoonful in a cup of hot water makes the beverage instantly. Grocers keep both kinds.
