the petrol.tank burst and.catching fire from the hot motor enveloped the machine and pilot in flames.Belogp Bleriot could extricate himself he was burned about the face and hands, but fortunately not

loca! authorities has, il we are to trust to the cable reports ben finally settled in accordance with the view of the over-veas dominions, and the settlement is not one which is calculated to make Canadians proud of their government, or of themselves who sustain it.We are told that the establishment of a local navy is the most eflectual contribution to the general security of the Empire which the Dominion of Canada could make, and this is a proposition the fallacy of which has been exposed in a recent issus by the Winnipeg Telegram, which, so far from viewing a local navy as a preservation of peace, and a protector in war, claims that its establishment is of no particular benefit to the state, and is calculated to arouse irritation amongst our neighbors.Our oonfrere puts these ques tions concerning a local navy; what What mission is it to fulfil?What dangers, probable or improbable is this local navy to guard against?These questions force themselves upon a curious public which realise that a Canadian navy can never he, and is mot intend.el to be, a source of strength to British navy.\u201cIt can never,\u201d re our confrere, \u201cbe a factor in a struggle in which British sea power is put to the test, for that test, as British naval strategists clearly understand, will take place in European waters.It can have no mission as\u2019a protector of Canadian commerce for that protee- tion is already assured.and oould only be impaired by the downfall of the British navy in which event a local Canadian navy would make a very poor show of restoring it.\u201d Our confrere then goes on to en: quire what service is this Censdian navy expected to render.The cases of Australia and New Zealand are differ- Each of these members of the from a foreign European power, and the commencement of a local navy is not only a prudent step on their part, but alto a material contribution to the Imperial resources of defence.But there is ne European power, argues the Telegram that would dare attacks us, or that porteses à bas from which it could operate against our shores, and, il there wefe, the governmem$ organs have repeatedly assured us that the Monroe doctrine would be invoked in our behall.That assurance, rays our oonfrere, is utterly discredited bv Canada's proposal to create a local navy.Canada does not want to be, and does not propose to be dependent on the Monroe doctrine for her national sxistencs but that spifit of independence does not necessarily imply distrust ol our neighbor.The creation ol a local navy does imply that die- trust and while in point of fact the the Canadian \u2018\u2018naves\u201d is not jl [two cents for.the protection of ) { Dominion, but the government organs # | are declaring that it is of great im.B | portance to the protestion of the Em- M pire.How?According to.the above Nl | despatch we propose to protect 2 ji} | Empire hy withdrawing a couple\u201d {| cruisers with their officers from \u201che \u2014_ United Gtates is not even considered in our plans fur naval defence the implication may prove extremely irritat.ine, We have already seen some signs of this irritation in the dtterance of the Amwsican press.And tbe proveca- tion though unintentional is unnecessary.Canada gaine nothing, Great Britain gains nothing, the Empire gains nothisge by the creation of a navy which is to be brought into existence merely as a political expedient.We set upan irritating influence between Canada and the United States without sseuring ome benefit.It is gratuitous irritation not only to opr fi s on the other side of the line but to the tends of thousands of excellent Americans who have taken up their homes in Canada.We do®not quite agree with our confrere.We do not think that the Amcompensating {ericans, or the American immigrants into the Dominion can reasonably con sider the proposition to establish a Canadian navy as a run of distrust in their pacifio intentions.That two- peuny-hall penny toy fleet might possibly have been rederded with sus pension if it had been proposed to place it on the Great Lakes to coun- ter-balance the naval strength of the United States there, but, divided, on the Atlanta and Pacific , we doubt very much whether the.United States or any European power, would | Qthink it worth while to sit pp and he | take a yawning notioe of it.FALSE PRETENCES.The Winnipeg Telegram, as we have shown ere, makes the point that the establishment of a local Canadian napy is not required for the protection of the Dominion, or Hkely to be se re quired.The question, therefore, is what is the use of it.and the answer in that it is intended to reifeve the British Govermment of part of .ite dut- fee of naval protestion for.the Dominion.Judging frons \u201cthe programme which has so far been permitted to leak out, we should say that it was rather calculated to impose on the British Government the further duty of looking after the security of the Jocal navy, hut we do not insist upon that.What assistance is \u2018the local navy\u2019 \u2018wapposed to give in case of trouble, and how?According to a despaich of the Canadian Associated Press, dated London, Augvet 26, the Great Canadian Navv is to consist of iwo third-clans cruisers borrowed from Great Britain, and stationed, one on the Pacific and the other on the Atlantie Ocean with officers also loaned by Great Britain and paid by Canada.These ships will require to be refitted, and altered in some respects, to be equal to the Montcalm, we sup- poss, but for that Canada will generously consent to pay.That there may be no misapprebgnsion\u2019 on the subject we renfoduce the Hespatohi: London, Aug.26.\u2014Thé Canadian Assoriated Press learns on high authority that two third-class cruisers are to be loaned to Canada bv Great Britain, one for the Pacific and the other for the Atlantic.These ships will ge- _lauire refitting and some alterations À | which can be made on \u2018thia side at the expense of Canada.| Officers -fur the vessele will also have to be loaned to Canada and paid by ber.When Canada starts to build warships.which it is understood will be of the British type, they will be built in Canada.A representative of a leading shipbuilding firm will shortly Wl [proceed to the Domivdon to select à * [ii | site for a shipyard.The Winniper Telegram declares tint worth the of
