at an early hour this morning as follows: LONDON, September 6, 1 a.m.\u2014As if in: defiance of - the annexation proclamation the Boer resistance is assuming fresh acti- hy in various distinct quarters.General Buller\u2019s column has fighting continuously since August 21, and now finds its progress blocked by Gen.Botha, among the ydenburg mountains, in a positon which is described as stronger than Vaal Kranta or Laings Nek.The fighting of Sunday and Monday made no apparent impression on Gen.Botha's force,.svhich will probably be able to hold out against a frontal atfack, but Lord Robetrs hopes to turn them out by a flank movement.According to some newspaper correspondents, this wi\u2019) be the last stand of the Transvaal Boers, who will not retreat further northward, owing to the hostility of the natives, but such reports should be received with caution.The fighting_in Orange River Colony haa been serious.Ladybrand, with its garrison of 150 men, has been besieged by a stron force of Boers and has made a desperate an successful resistance.According to a tele gram of yesterday's date the siege has been raised by the Boers.; A commando has also appeared at Thaba N\u2019Chu, the scene of one of the most successful exploits of the burghers in the open: ing campaign.A British force under Gen.Bruce Hamilton hastily left Bloemfontein on Saturday and there was an cngagement near the waterworks on Sunday, in which the Boers were defeated.In the central district of Orange River Colony the Boers supposed to be under De Wet have raided the railway in two places and captured a train carrying supplies and stores.THE \u201cVERY FINEST\u201d SOUCHONG TEA $1.00 PER POUND.WE HAVE JUST RECEIVED A SMALL SHIPMENT OF Superbly Choicest First Crop Extra Lapsang Souchong

QUEBEC, September 6.\u2014A remarkable industrial and colonization development is reported from the Lake St.John.dietrict.Engineers have already commencèd work upon the Grande Decharge for the ner to be erect- pulp and other mills that are.ed by American capitalists at a cost of two to three million dollars, and all the capital is been subscribed for the immediate construction of a four stone pulp mill on the banks of the Little Peribonea, at the White Falls.The hundreds of men who earn their living in summer in this territory by act- ,ing as guides for the wealthy Americans who come to fish there are afraid that the erection of these industrial establishments may take away their means of subsistence if the law regarding fishways and pollution of the water is allowed by the Government to be violated as it too oftengis.In fact, sportemen and guides and the transportation companies and hotels and others interested all over the country are complaining of the failure of the Government to demand compliance with the law in, this respect, on the part of mill and factory owners and others.; On the shores of the Mistaseini and Rat Rivera colonization is advnacing with rapid strides.The Trappists are farming and lum- berinæ there on a very large scale, and furnishing employment to numbers of men.Several new roads and bridges are in course of construction through the rich agricult ural lands of the district.: WOMEN IN CHOIRS.A Decree Issued by the Roman Catholic Church Which Affects Female Singers.NEW YOR K, 6.\u2014The Sacred | tion of Ri which has recently Congrega which been placed under the direction of Cardinal teinhueber, has just issued a decree calling the attention of the \u2018 clergy, both at home and abroad, to the strict law instituted by the Congregation prohibiting women from taking part in the music of Divine service, either in solos or in choirs, says a despatch to the Journal and_Advertiser from Rome.It is believed at Rome that the decree in uestion is more especially aimed at the tholic Church in France, where actresses are frequently employed to sing solos in the churches, especially of the Metropolis.But the order cannot fail to apply equal to the Roman Catholic Church in the nited States where the soprano and alto parts of the musical portions of the services are frequently taken by women instead of by boys.RAILWAY DIRECTORS MET.Contemplated Railway From Quebsc to the Coast Has Good Prospects.QUEBEC, September 6.\u2014There war a large number of prominent rallway men fn the city yesterday to attend a meeting of the Quebec and New Brunswick Rall- way Company, which took place yesterday afternoon in the Chateau Frontenac.Mr.John' Costigan ls president of the new company, and among the directors of the new road are Messrs, Dechene, Turgeon, Dechene, M.P., H.G.Carroll, M.P.;

Concluded.THE ORIGIN OF A $5000 NOTE.Fulton's Power of of Attorney Was Revoked After the Sale of the Merchants Bank Shares.The cross-examination of Messrs.John A.Grose and Walter H.C'oristine in the trial of John Napier Fulton was concluded yesterday afternoon, when the court rose at five.o'clock.After races the cross-examination of Mr.Grose was conducted by Mr.Cranksbaw.Witness never received any letter from Fulton while in Boston making an appointment.Witness experienced considerable trouble to get on the trucks of Fulton In Boston, as he changed hotels several times.Witness remembered that Fulton had offered to transfer some cotton bonds to secure Mrs.Coristine from al loss.Witness had learned frum one of his own men that the Giroux note for $5000 given in security was not genuine, as Giroux sald he had never signed such a note for such an amount He remembered having received a note one day from [Fulton stating that he had a prior engagement with one Andy Latimer, steward on the steamer New England.While in Boston witness was most anxious to have an interview with Fulton, but the latter had avolded him.Fullon could not go back to Boston now without being arrested, as the charge lald against him was still pending.Fulton had not been arrested upon his return to Montreal for the first week, because he had come her» under a special arrangefnent to return und appear before the United States court in Loston.Fulton had promised to return to Boston, but he had not kept his promise.Edmond Glroux, druggist, was the next witness to give evidence rn bu note which bore his sigiture.that the signature attached lu the note was certainly his, but when he signed it the note was blank.ite acknowledged that Le owed Mr.Fulton $50).However, there were also other notes bearing his signature glloat concerning the same business.Une was- for $2500 on tne Unlon Bank, another for $600 due to the Imperial Bank, another for over $1W to Tellier, Rothwell and Ce, and one to Harry Phillips for an unknown amount.He had already paid $800 on the nute\u2019 of $5000.Witness stated that if he owed these other notes he certainly did not owe the note for $5 He did not know that judgment had been rendere:l arainst him in court, but said that he had recelved a notice of action from the attorneys for Mra.Coristine.He gave Fulton the blank note, but he did no onsider he Had the right to fill 1t in fnr $5000.George Sloan, acting detective, produced some accounts seized in Fulton's house on a search warrant.Walter H.Coristine, son of Mrs.Coris- tine, was next -oross-examined by Mr.\u2018\u2019rankshaw, and stated that when he ha] learned that Fulton had transferred the shares of the Merchants Bank he wired his mother to ascertain if he had done so under authority, and she replied that she had given no such authority.Witness then went to Boston, and Fulton's power of at torney was revoked.He returned to Mon\u2018- real and gave Fulton forty-eight hours in which to return securities held by htm.but prisoner hid falled to do so.Witness had lodged the pre ent complaint against the accused.He did not remember having sald to Mrs.Fulton that he was after money.He had not zought to replace Fulton before this, and he ha not been anxious to get rid of him before.At this point two letters from Mrs.Cor- istlne to accused were read.One stated that if the son interfered with accused, the latter was to go down tn Boston and see the writer.A letter was also read from Mr.TW.H.Coristine to the accused regnrd- ing some C.P.R.sta This concluded the \u2018examination, and Mr.Crarkshaw remarked: \"If Mrs.Cortetine has any difficulties with accused, let her go to the civil courts.\u201d The court then adjourned.A-SHIP'S CREW REBEL.The Montcalm in Plenty of Trouble at New

one is to make a test case as to the right of the police to enter the bars of the saloons un Sunday with the object of finding out if there are any Sunday sales being made ; the other is to extend the assoclation\u2019s usefulness into all parts of the province.Mr.Lawrence A.Willson, president, oc- çupied the chair.At the outset he announced that the combines on whiskeys had been broken, and that the wholesala dealers, in face of the protest of the asso- clation, had decided to abide with the request of the latter body.On the proposition of Mr.Cahill, seconded by Mr.Louis Durand.a hearty vote of thanks was tendered to Mr.Wilsén for the successsful issue of his efforts in protecting the interests of the members.The president, in replying, expressed the hope that before long the combines in otaer liquors would be broken, and as for himself he had always been agalnst combines.It was then proposed by Mr.Arthur Jones, seconded by Mr Nap.Richard: \u201cWhereas, the combines cannot but cause considerable wrong between regular commercial relations by imposing arbitrary restrictions on the {ree and open commerce and, whereas, that certaln quarters refuse to accept our just demands, which are tne abolition of all combines, be it resolved, in consequence, that the members of this association engage themselves to encourage trongly the consumption of liquors, not belng combined, in pre/erence to all others.in a lengthy speech the chairman pointed out the necessity for the amalgamation of the entire trude of the Province of Quebec.It was then propeséd by Mr.A.N Monast, seconded by Mr.Arthur Jones: \u201cWhereas, the progress of this associa- tlon is growing every day, and that we have adherents in cities and municipalities not only surrounding Montreal, but in other districts of the province ; be it resolved that it is opportune to enlarge the circle of our operations, and to this nd to establish a federajion of afl the licensed liquor dealers of the Province of Quebur.That the secretary be instructed to pre pare à by-law and a circular letter, to Le approved by the Board of Directors, duly authorized to this effect, which by-law nnd letter to be addressed to all interested rarties of the whole provinee, inviting these In the larger cities to form a local associa- \u2018lun, and the others in smaller places to aftillate themselves with the Montreal us- sociation.| To meet this end it ts necessary that, the association shall have a ner- manent office, and the Board of Direotors ve, In consequence, authorized to make arrangements to this effect.\u201d The motion was unanimously adopted.In answer to a question made by Mr.Arthur Jones regarding the visits of the city police on Sundays to every licensed house, the secretary replied that in the ywnlon nf the legal advisers of the assn- ciation, the police of the city are exceeding their rights in presenting themselves an: having the doors of the bars opened fur inspection.The secretary further staucl that the Board of Directors had already given instructions to have a test case of ihis question.mong thuse who were present were : Messrs.Nap.Richard, lLouls Poire, V.Hougie, KE.L.Ethier, Michael Murphy, Ls.Deslongchamps, Z.Davis, Louis Durand.Charles Leveille, R.Archambaul*, A.Barbier.A.N.Monast, J.A.A.Ayotte, A, P.de Morasse.Nap.Tremblay, Ovila Trein- blay, P.McGoogan, Jame: M phy, A.Poi- tras.Arthur Jones, \u2018L.V, Thouin, George Marks, Naz.Gauthier, Job.Lamarche, An- tolne Huot, Camille Thouin, Edouard Fortin, A.H.Dansereau, James Cahill, Chas.Lafleur, Jos, Payette, E.Masse, G.A.Cata- tord, Amedee Bouchard, NP.P.Monette, Odllon Lessard.Stan :las Vallee, Jos.Nu.veu, jr.Anthime Thibault, Theophile Parent, Amedee Parent.P.P.Raby, 8.Monast, and Edouard St.Jean.The following were admitted as active members of the association: L.A.Cote, John J.Morgan, Beaudoin Bros., Paul V.Jovehard, John J.Johnson, H.De.patie.Ludger Thout, Z.Bessette, Ovila F chard, Joun Birmingham, Euclide Cous- fnean (Ste.Anne de Bellevue), Arsene Bou- chard, Regis Lamarche (Ste.Anna de Believue), J.F.Giroux and J.R.Lesage.Immediatec'v «fter the meeting the directors met In 38eod ERAI DOR YPSER, Talence France.COMMON SENSE aire Roaches, Bed ge, Rats and -.Mice.Alldruggists, ac: 1 con Street W., Toronto.1 worthlees imiiætion- nasutyuf EDUCATIONAL.CONVENT of the Congregation.POINTE CLAIRE, PQ Owing to its delightful situation on Lake St.Louis, this institution possesses super- tor advantages for health and study.The educational coursc comprises every useful branch suitable for young girls.Terms moderate.Clakses will be resumed on the 1st of September.For further Information address : The Mother Superior, Congregation de Notre Dame, 192 20804 Pointe Claire, P.Q.DUNHAM LADIES COLLEGE.Pres, Rr.Rev.W.B.Boxp, LL.D.Chair.Ex.Com., J.MACKINNON, Esq.Bchool re-opens with articuleriy strong staff of trained teachers.Freno, rman taught y \"The Church School for Girls ) in the Diocese of Montreal.G.w.h, of DK upil of \"college won scholarship for Royal & liege of Music, London, Eng.Fuliest enquiry into standing and methods of school lovited.Board, sundry and tuition, including French and Gorman, $153.Re-opons Wednesday, September 13, 1900.For Calendars, etc.apply Lady Principal, ham, Que.Dun!

BOTTLING UP THE MARITIME PROVINCES.The controversy between the Government and the Canadian Pacific Railway Company with reference to the interchange of traffic at St.John, between the J.U.K.and the C.P.R., involves so many intricacies that many newspapers which really desire\u201d to give their readers reliable and impartial in- Yormation, have failed to grasp its most salient features, while others, caring less for the truth than for party|advantage, have coloured and distorted it to suit their political \u2018purposes.As the Intercolonial Railway has no lines in Ontario and the North-West, while it reaches only a small part of the province of Quebec, it cannot act independently of other railways.It is absolutely necessary for the Government to make arrangements of some kind for interchange of traffic.In making such arrangements the first difficulty that arises is the length of the Inter- colonial Railway between Montreal and the nearest ocean port of the Maritime Provinces.The distance from Montreal to St.Jobn is 740 miles, via the Intercolonial, and © 481 miles via the C.P.R, while it is only 297 miles from Montreal to Portland and 842 miles from Montreal to Boston.It must be manifest to every one that a rate that would be profitable for one of the shorter lines might be unprofitable for the In- ! tercolonial.When a consignment of traffic is to be carried between the point of origin and its destination over two or more distinet railway lines, and the earnings are to be divided on the basis of the distance that the traffic is to be carried over each of the respective lines constituting the through route, assuming that the rate is a profitable one, it is clearly to the advantage of the railway with which the traflic originates to take it to the most remote junction point, thereby \u2018securing the Jong haul.So (hat if the LC.R.could always secure recognition of its full mileage in the division of receipta and no other considerations were involved, it would plainly be the duty of its traffic officers to \u2018 send via Montreal all westbound business originating on the Intercolonial lines, rather than accept leas revenue by routing it to St.Jobn.But in the case of the Intercol- onial there are other and very important considerations.In view of the length of its line the best paying traffic for the Intercolonial is local and the best way to increase the local traffic is tp make the country through which the railway runs prosperous, thus encouraging the growth of population and business.It should therefore he the aim of the In- tercolonial management to open up to the people aleng the line the broadest possible markets for the sale of their products, In pursuarice of this policy they should encourage the development of great occan ports to which the largest steamships would run regularly, thus enabling the people of the Maritime Provinces to take advantage of their nearness to the markets of Europe, and send farm products, fish, minerals and manufactured goode there cheaply.They should endésvour also to make such connettions with all the western railway lines as will be most convenient for the people of the Maritime Provinces, so far as this can be done without lost to the I.C.R.The Government railway should not be tied up to shy one railway company, as Mr.Blair is tsying to tie it to the Grand Trunk.To erect a icade against a railway system extending from ocean to ocean, coh- necting with the western and northern States and serving 8000 miles of Canadian territory, a large portion of which is not reached by any other railway, a railway system that could carry an immense tonnage of export freight to the porta of the Maritime Provinces,\u2019 to deprive euch a railway system of all interest in Intercolonial territory \u2018is to do serions injury to every ' merchant, manufactuer, farmer, miner and ermen- along the lime of the Intercol- the Jhtercolonial \u20ac ' the people in our territory may have access to your markets, and the people in your territory may have access to ours.We cannot afford to accept the short haul on all business originating on our lines and destined to your territory, because it would involve a substantial shrinkage of our revenue, but we are prepared to do this; If any shipper along the line of our road pre: fers to route lis business by way of your line, we shall permit him to do so upon the condition that in the division between us of the through rates, you will allow us more for the service performed than we would be entitled to if the actual mileage over which we hauled the trafic were made the basis of compensation.In Other words, that you shall reasonably compensate us for the tors of our long haul by en extra mileage allowance for the short haul, so that our profits may be made good.Besides giving the people of the Maritime Provinces the market advantages of convenient connection with the West we desire your co-operation in building up our winter ports and we shall expect you, in consideration of the traffie arrangement proposed to do what you can to increase the size and importance of these ports.We know that you will be handicapped by reason of the fact that the export tonnage exceeds the import tonnage nearly eight to one, and that as & consequence most of vour cars must be Te- turned to the West empty, but this arrangement for un interchange of traffic will en- «ble vou to load some of them, with very little revenue to your line, of course, but after all with a profit, because of the fact that vou will Be handling traffic in care that would otherwise have to be hauled back empty.\u201d This was the course pursuzd by the Conservative Government and as a result ns soon as harbour tmprovements were made at St.John to accommodate the traffic the export business of that port began to develop in a remarkable way.) But now a new policy has been adopted, and the shippers who desire to send their consignments from points on the Intercol- onial via St.John to Montreal and the West will not be permitted to do so unless they pay local rates, which would be pro- \u2018hibitive.It is said that shipments from Nova Sco- tin and New Brunswick destined to Sherbrooke, North Bay and other points on the Canadian Pacific system have been sent around two sides of a triangle at great expense and loss to the Jnt-rrolonial rather than permit the Canadian Price te have any portion of the business.Indeed, it is stated that manufacturers of car axles and other articles purchased by the Canadian Pacific in Nova Scotia for its own use were not permitted to forward these articles to the Canadian Pacific at St.John to be carried to the point where they were requited unless they paid the !ncal rate, vad, as & consequence, these manufacturers have Jost a very large and profitable 1 tues.The Canadian Pacific offered to allow the Intercolonial extra mileage on all consign- monts received at St.John and destined to Montreal and the west, ie, it Was proposed that however short the haul on the Inter- colonial, that road would be* nilowed 330 miles in divisions, this being 55 miles more than the entire distance to Halifax, provided this alfowance did not exceed local rates, The Canadian Pacific asserted that in many, if not in most cases, this constructive or additional mileage would give .the Government Railway more net profit than if the same business were hauled to Montreal.Further, the Canadian Pacific claimed to be able to prove that business now carried at a loss from points in the Lower Provinces to Montrcal would yicld à fair net profit if taken to St.John, and the Government Railway system would he saved the expense of constructing and maintaining locomotives and cars for handling unprofitable business over its long distance to its we-tern terminus.The general effect of Mr.LBlaic\u2019s policy will be to hottle up the people of the Maritime Provinces and restrict a rapidly developing interprovincial trade which is advantageous alike to the East and the West.Many false statements have been made regarding the arrangement made by Sir John Macdonald for the running of Cane- dian Pacific Railway trains over the I.C.R.from St.John to Halifax.The facts will be explained by the Star in another ar ticle.WHEN THE BOYS COME BACK.We have already had the return of some of our soldiers who, in consequence of wounds -or illness were sent home in advance.Soon, now, the rest of our gallant fellows will be back.There is no doubt they will receive a right royal welcome\u2014 a welcome full of genuine enthusiasm, from onc end of Canada to the other.When the torchlight procession is over, the last strains of martial music died away and the cheering done, what is gaing to happen to the soldiers?They will be home again, rcleased from active duty, but what pext?Some of them probably have been fortunate enough to know just where they are going, have their old situations still open for them.In many cases, however, the return of our soldier boys means that a large number of unemployed men will be sccking situations.They should not have to scek long.In Toronto an organization is being formed to secure employment for the men when they return.The Patriotte Fund Committee in Montreal are taking the matter in hand, and it would be well for those who will have probable vacant situations to bear in mind the returning boys who have been away \u201cwiping something off the slate.\u201d It is the first time Canada has sent her volunteers to fight for the Empire abroad.Let not those who bravely upheld the honour of our country in the eyes of the world, and helped to defend thé grand old fing, feel sorry that they went only when they return and try to wather up the threads of life again.A PHILADELPHIA PLAYGROUND.The Star (Garden Park which Philadelphia is laying out in one of the most con: gested districts of that city will have many novel features and will constitute a plaÿ- ground as well as a modern park.One of the characteristics of the new park will be the arrangement of trees and shrubs a that those inside the park will not be able to ree\u2019 the dingy streets surrounding them.In the centre of the park will be.erected a big

novel park is expected to prove a blessing to the poor of the district during the torrid days of summer As a proposition has been made to the Park Committee, of this city, by a committee of kindly disposed ladies, to improve Fletcher's Field, so it could be uscd as a playground for little folks, the park improvement scheme, contemplated by Phil adelphia, may.suggest idcas that will prove opportune, A RECORD OF SHAME.The details of the grievances set forth in the address presented to His Excellency the Governor-General at Dawson City on July M4, referred to in yesterday's Star, are at hand, and form a record of wrong-doing and maladministration which certainly must have shocked His Excellency.After set ting forth the injurics worked by the sys tern of fining people who undertook to develop the placer mines, in the way of excessive royalties and fees, the address proceeds to point ouf the dishonest way in which the regulations were administered.Hero is a sample brick: 7.\u2014Under the guise of prohibition regulations, there was institut a system of liquor permits and prohibition of local manufacture that had the cffect of shutting down all legitimate breweries in the son Territory and at the present time there are two well-equip sed breweries in Dawson shut down, while hundreds of thousands oi dollars\u2019 worth of American beer is for sale all over the Yukon territory, thus making this country, as far as the manufacture of beer is concerned, solely under the con- tro! and monopoly of the beer manufacturers of the United States \u2018of America, while liquor permits were not at any time, and are not at this date, issucd to the parties who pav licenses to sell liquor, but to speculators who seem to have the power of obtaining permits which are denied legitimate dealers of the territory.Thesa speculators well their permits granjed by the Government at largely increased rates, and supply the territory with liquors at an enormous profit to themselves and at a great cost to the people of the territory._ 8.\u2014The burdensome imposts of the mining regulations alone would have seriously retarded -the development of that industry and the prosperity of the Yukon territory, but their bad effect was augmented by the other facts set out herein, coupled with such an apparent \u2018indifference on the part of the Parliament of Canada to inform themselves of the needs of the territory, and remedy the rame, as bg never been paralleled in nada, or in fact in any British colony.It is pointed out that certain districts were closed against locations by free miners contrary to the regulations made by the order-in-council, and subsequently this action was confirmed by the Privy Council of Canada, and the districts have never been re-opened to the location of placer mining claims.\u201cDuring the time when these closures were being made and enforced on the various creeks, hillside and bench claims in the gold mining region of the Yukon territory.\u201d the address continnes, \u201clarge parts of the said closed portions and uther parts of the Yukon territory were granted by the Government at Ottawa to certain persons, many of whom never at uny time were in the Yukon territory, as hydraulic concessions and certain fractions have been granted in compensation ances ought never to have been in existence.\u201d ; ° The address shows \u201cthe population was driven from the Yukon territory by what was a practical prohibition of development; large tracts of the richest placer mining ground of the Yukon territory has been handed over in ccnecssions, end the raid concessions include and take in valuable fractions which have! been denied to the prospector and have heen handed over to concezsionaries for the small sum of $150 per mile so that at.the present time prospection and new discoveries have practi cally ceased.\u201d The public acts were not the only ones irom which the people of tka Yukon territory have suffered.\u201cThe office of the gold commissioner for long periods was practically inaccessible to free miners of the Yukon territory,\u201d saya the address, \u201cand prompt transaction of business was only sccured by influence with the clerks of the office, and when the public or interested parties knew of the miscarriage or wrongful granting of a claim or ground to individuals, it was most generally sound that several transfers bhd been recorded to innocent parties, which made it impossible to rectify the official wrong-doing, and even at a very late date the administration of the said office had been such that the officers of the North-West Mounted Polica were forced to take proceedings against a clerk in said office, which proceedings ended with the fining of said clerk and his later fleeing from the Yukon territory, while bin fellow conspirators are at pres ent incarcerated in the common gaol of the Yukon territory.\u201d This condition of affairs, as might well be understood, caused no small outcry among those who had risked health, money und everything they possessed in many cases to go into the Yukon and carry on placer mining.We are told: 14.\u2014\u2018\u2018During the year 1898 the grievances and oppression of the people of the territory became so grea* that it drove {he population of this territory into such a stute that rebellion was oniy prevented by the energetic persuasions on the part of the loyal British subjects residing in the Yukon territory, who pled their word that these wrongs would be righted when and as soon as they were brought to the knowledge of the vernment and Parliament of Canada, and the assurances at the jesty have not yet been made good and your petitioners are of the opinion that such grievances have never been known to exist in any British colony herctofore and are even worse than those which caused the dissensions in Canada in 1837 and 1885 and ex the grievances which can the outcry of Uitlanders of the Transvaal.\u201d The opinion is expressed that had the Yukon enjoyed proper laws and been freed from the burdemsome taxes, tyrannical.re- mulations and dishonest administration, \u201cthis territory would now bave bad a population of about one hundred thousand, and would have offered an unequalled cash market to Eastern Canada.\u2019 Representations of the conditions were made from time to time to the Dominion Government by private individuals and the {Jovernment, according to the address to the Governor-General, \u201chave seen fit to make rertnin changes on the representation of these individuals, some of which changes were a benefit to the rritory, while others were 0s t à detriment'as the wrongs they were intended to remedy.\u201d The revelations in Parliament made by 8ir Charles Hibbert Tupper were treated with partisan denial and disregard by the Government and their followers.Now we baye the memorial presented by the people of Dawson, by their reprgsentative committee to the Governor-Gemeral in person, which \u2018shows the justice of Sir Hibbert'a demand _for_investigation of the grievances; the urgent necessity for reform, the shame ful meladministration of the territory by favdur the Government and the dishonest The address summarises the reforms needed as follows: First, the necessity for immediately doi away with, or at east greatly reducing the present royalty on gold mined in the Yukon ory, Second, the necessity of preparing roads und bridges and, affording free cans of commupication within the Yukon territory.Third, the necessity of opening for Joca- tion to free miners, all parts of the Yukon territory, owned by the Government which are fit for placer mining.Fourth, the necessity for reducing the present fees for free miners\u2019 certificates and or récording and renewing placer mining claims.Fifth, the necessity for altering the hydraulic mining regulations so as secure for the free miner the right to locate, re cord and work any und which is fit for placer mihing, whether covered by a concession or not.Sixth, the adoption and enforcement of such mining regulations as will- encourage to the utmost the prospector first, the miner second and the investor third, and throw open the country for the fullest and freest development.' Seventh, the necessity of granting répre- sentation to the people of the Yukon of at least two members in the House of Commons of Canada.ighth, a legislative council wholly elected by the citizens of the Yukon Territory.Ninth, the necessity of Rutting the liquor trade of this territory udder such rogula- tions ns to subject it to the laws of trade and insure commercial freedom.Tenth, establishment of proper courts and a court of appeal in and for the Yukon erritory.Eleventh, the necessity of securing or establishing a free British port of entry on the western coast of America within reach of the headwaters of the Yukon river, in order to encourage the trade and commerce between the Yukon Territory and time given by the loyil citizens of Her Ma.- the other portions of the Dominion of Canada, The news that the high hand shake has been discarded\u2014\u2018\u2018shaken,\u201d so to speak\u2014is, given on reliable authority.It is no longer en regle to elevate the hand to the level of the eyebrows before \u2018grasping the flesh\u201d of an acquaintance.Society will now not be obliged to imagine it is dancing a minuet when it is receiving friends.Commenting upon the \u2018news that the United States missionary boards are crowded with applications from people who desire to go to China to take the place of the murdered missionaries, the Indianapolis Journal suggests they be told that in their own country there is à large feld which, if not ripe for the harvest, is so full of weeds as to need à multitude of husbandmen.And it might add to the chunk of wisdom that those who most frequently carp at foreign mission effort are not frequently found among the active supporters of home mis sion work, The uncorrected returns of the United States census for 1900 place the population of she country at 78,578,000.In 1890 the figures were 62,622,250.Since the last census the republic has also become a colonial | power and its dependencies\u2014Hawaii, Cuba, Porto Rico, Philippine Islands, and Guam \u2014have a population of 10,470,281.Thus the new American Empire hss no less than eighty-six millions and odd of population leading every other country in the world for alleged grievances, which alleged griev-+] ©Xcept the British Empire and Russia in area of territory and variety of races.Our .neighbours are apt echolars and have taken a leaf out of the parental book.Ep \u2014_\u2014 ¢ THIS DATE 30 YEARS AGD.(From the -Star Fyles of September.1870.)

there was not a shadow of doubt.It was true that to a certain extent they were genuine, inasmuch as they had been ordered to be printed by the roper authorities, but just before the official numbering of the bonds had been donc by the printer they disappeired and the next thing that was known of them was whet the prisoner cashed them in this city.In the meantime, the numbers had been orged on the

QUOTA OF HEH PAS- .SENGERS.The Allan Line Steamship Tunisian, leav- Ing port to-morrow morning for Liverpool.takes out a very large number of passengers, and among them are :many who are interesting from many points of view.In all there are some 650 passengers booked, and this, it might be mentioned, is a larger number of passengers, of all classes, than was t:ken out from New York on any one vteamer during the month of August.The list includes 150 first class, 120 second.and 130 steerage.Besides these there are 230 sailors, composing the home- wird bound crew of H.M.S.Phaeton.,.Among the prominent people in the l'unisian\u2019s passenger list might be mentioned Lord and Lady O'Neill, of Shane's Castle, a beautiful place near Belfast, France is represented by Count and Countess de Galembert.of Paris.They are ac companied by their davghter M'Île Beatrice.Ladv Elizabeth Cochrane, of London, England is also a passenger.as is also Mr.Drummond Hay.who manages a newspaper in Shanghai, China.The British Navy is proportionately as well represented in the saloon as it 1s \u2018tween decks.Among the officers are Capt.F.G.Kirby, who comes over from the Pacific in charge of the naval detachment which is on its way to England.Then there is First Lieutenant Covley, also of Her Majestv\u2019s ship Phaeton, and also Lieut.Mairis of the same vessel.Staff Surgeon Andrews of the Roval Navy is.also a passenger, as are also Lieut.Morant, Lieut.McCann.Lieut.Wilking and sub- Lieut.Oxlade, all of the Royal Navy and on their way back to Great Britain after a term of service.Captain Limpers.who was at Ladysmith at the time the British troops finally entered the town, will also be a passenger Captain Limpers left SOUTH AFRICA FOR CHINA and, he is now on his way home to Eng and.The returning crew of the H.M.S.Phaeton arc to be quartered forward on the Tunisian, They have the forward \u2019tween decks entirely to themselves, and every possible arrangement for their rnmfort has been attended to.The men and petty officers, numbering some 250, are divided into messes of sixteen men each, and are provided with a special intermediate fare, which so far as quality goes resembles very much that received by the second cabin passengers, so that there will be nothing to complain of on that score.These men are now on their way east on the Canadian Pacific railway, a speciel train baving been provided for them.They are xpected to arrive about midnight, and will either go on board late to-night or else the firat thing in the morning.The vessel sails about eight o'clock.Among the steerage passeng rs are 25 Lap- lenders who are retorning to their Norway ears on this continent.A hundred and thirteen of these Lap- landers were shipped on board the Allan Line steamship Manitoba on the 5th day of February, 1898 \u20ac point of embarkation was Altan, Norway.and these men were sent out under the direction of Dr.Sheldon Jackson, who was commissioned by the United States Government, the object being to introduce reindeer into the Klondike.On board the Manitoban were placed 538 reindeer.The vessel landed her c in New York and from therc the Laps and the deer were sent westward.It wae found, however, that owing to the absence of the peculiar grazs these animals thrive on, they did not do well, go the experiment to a great extent was a failure.The Laps, however, did thrive in their new found homes.In fact, some of them have made comfortable fortunes from even an Anglo-Saxon point of view.One of the Laps is credited with having two hundred thousand dollars while another has one hundred thousand and two twenty-five thousand cach.This money the Laps accumulated at Cane Nome.working in a great many cases the ground which the Anglo-Saxons did not consider productive.It is stated that while the fortunes snoken of are of course.exceptional among them still every one has some money, more than sufficient for their nèeds in their far away northern homes.A ENOWN CANADIAN

surprise to his many friends in this city, by whom the bishop-elect is justly esteemed.Archdeacon Mills received the official notifigation of his election while attending a convention of the Sunday-schools in the rural deanery of St.Andrews at Grenville.It came in the form of a telegrdm and read as follows: Archdeacon Mills, D.D., Montreal: The Synod of the diocese of Ontario has unanimously elected you to the position of coadjutor bishop with full powers and right of succession, and has adjourned till 3 o'clock to receive your decision with respect to its acceptance.Please

and from 1884 to 1895 was lecturer in scripture in the Montreal Diocesan Theological College, of which institution he is a governor.Since 1885 he' has been lecturer in ecclesiastical history in the same institution.The bishop-clect has served as a delegate from this diocese to the neral Synod, and was nominated for the bishopric of Algoma at the special meeting of the Provincial Synod called in 1896 to elect a successor to Bishop Sullivan in that see.He failed to secure the necessary number of votes, however, and the Rev.Geo.ornloe, of Sherbrooke, was elected to the vacancy.In 1888 the bishop-elect married Katherine S., daughter of the late Stanley C.Bagg, of this city.He is the sixth cle an from this diocese to be elected to the dignity of ordinary vacant Canadian sees, the others being Bishop Dumoulin, of Nia ; Bishop Baldwin, of Huron; Bisho ewnbam, of Monsonee; Bi hop Bond, of Montreal, and the late Bishop ullivan, of Algoma.The consecration will take place in Bt.George\u2019s Cathedral, Kingston, in October, and it is probable that the consecrating prelate will ve the Archbishop of Ontario and Metropolitan of Canada, whose co-adjutor the bish- op-elect is to be, and who is at present returning to Canada from England, where he has n spending the summer months.The Allan line steamship Tunisian, sall- ing to-morrow morning for Liverpool, will take out the following first cabin passengers : .Agnew, Montreal ;

CHICAGO, September 6.\u2014 Pressure of cash wheat without enough speculative trade to carry it was the principal cause of the sharp decline in prices In the first halt of to-day's session.Primary receipts were 1,186,000, against 1,164,000 a year ago, but in view of the duplication of receipts.which results from the shipping of Kansas City wheat eastward to 8t.Louis, Chicago, Minneapolis, and even Toledo, today's actual receipts were undoubtedly considerably less than last year's.Offerings in the pit were not particularly heavy, but the local crowd had bought all they wanted last night.and there was practically no outside buying, so lower prices cline there was enough covering of shorts to cause a quick rally.Many are of the opinion that rallies will be sharp and frequent in the wheat market in spite of the heavy receipts.Yesterday's engagements for export show plainly that there is a good demand for our wheat abroad, and that we are on an export basis at present prices.It may take a little time for the market to adjust itself to carry the load of hedges against cash wheat, which always increases rapidly at thin season; but In view of our light cfop and the view so generally held that the latter half of the season is likely to show \u2018the prices.speculators will advaily take hold -| gradually e ho fortunitios present when favourable op- themselves.the water |- perlor Court.Franc Hen, Plaintiff, vs.Thomas Lilley, Defendant, t ber #1 were recorded on light sales, At the de- | CONTINUED FROM PAGE FIVE.SITUATIONS VAOANT, YW'anTEL \u2014 A GIRL ACCUSTOMBD washinz and labelling bottles.DeBresoles st: * ° hy WANTED \u2014 GOOD PLAIN COOK OR GEN: eral servant; no washing or froning| re: ferences renuired.Apply No.2 Thornhill ave} turn lo left: off Argyle avenue, Westmount.£10 3 VV ANTED \u2014 A BOOKKEEPER FOR A couple of hours a day or evening, to st and balance the books of a retail\u201d burtness, State salury wanted and give referen CR, A ie, Star Branch Office.210 | V JANTED \u2014 COOK, HOUSE AND mald, Apply 81 Dishep at.VYVANTED \u2014 A HELPER FOR STADLR ApLly Troy Laundry Co.8, 10 inspector street 210 3 = \u2014\u2014\u2014 WANTED \u2014 A RELIABLE GENERAL servant În a small familly; good wages} can slcep at home if preferred.Apply 477a St, Urbain vt, 210 TARIE- Bio 1 VVANTED \u2014 COUNTRY AND CITY GIRLS wishing to obtain good situations tree of cherze, apply tov Mrs.Jacobson, 64 Croge cent st.210 1 WANTED \u2014 A HOUSEKERPER FOR PRO.testont family: references required.Ap~ 144 Hutchison st.210 1 VWVANTED \u2014 GENERAL BERVANT; ND .washing or ironing.Apply 70 St.Pioniile nly street.À JANTED \u2014 \u201cGENERAL SERVANT, WHO can cook, for 2 or 3 wecks.References, Apply 43 Tupper st.210 1 WANTED \u2014 STRONG BOY TO WORK around store.140 Peel st.WANTED \u2014 SHIRT AND OVERALL MAKers.Apply at the factory to Mrs.Lang- staff, 454 2 VWANTED \u2014 A COMPETENT GENERAL servant.Apply between 11 and 12 or and 9, 4140 Dorchester st.210 1 V JANTED \u2014 STRONG MAN, AGE 28 TO for general work and delivery in furniture store.Apply 543 Cralg st., reference require ed, 210 St.James st.10 1 VV ANTED \u2014 A RESPECTABLE GIRL FOR restaurant: prefer one able to cook.Ap- butcher shop.210 1 VWANTED \u2014 GIRL TO FEED GORDON !

or at least the wholesaler does for him, and She good old schooner days have all but_di isappe In the first place the tax cdllector has made it very uncomfortable for the oyster schooner man.The market men about the city clamoured for à tax upon these people who came here and sold their product practically free of charge.To this appeal the city fathers responded by placing a tax of two dollars per day all the time they were in port.In addition to this there are the wharfage dues, which amount to 12 cents per ton, and in the aggregate to something like $é or #7 on each schooner.Under these circumstances the schooner men say there is no money in the business.A rainy day will come while they are in port, and their receipts will be only a few cents while their outlay will amount schooner men are fast disappearing.Last to several dollars.With these graduallv increased tarea the year they had dwindled to two or three and this year perhaps there will be one, or, as likely as not, none at-all.CHAMBRE DE COMMERCE.Discusses Trade With France and Has a Report From Its London Representative to the Trade Congress.At the meeting of the Chambre de Commerce yesterday afternoon, the Hon.A.Desjardins raised the question of the detention of the vessels of the Franco-Cana- dienne Steamship Company at quarantine, which he contended was arbitrary, and in excess of the powers of the health authorities.He wished to know whether this was done accidentally or deliberately.Mr.G.Boivin asked what charges were levied upon vessels visiting Canadian ports.Mr.A.Poindron replied that a hospital due of two cents per ton was paid by each regular liner, that is, each ship that put in three times in a eeason., The pilotage charge was 7 per cent.on the value of the freight.The Franco-Canadienne Steamship Company were obliged to pay the harbour dies twice, as they touched at Halifax on the way to Montreal, and the authorities there refused to allow for the payments in ontreal, as it was in another province.À letter from Charles Bossez & Co, Paris, to Mr.Morin, jr., was read, tine depots to the extent of 2.000 cubic metres at Havre, and asking for consignments of apples, butter and frozen salmon.\"Apples are rare in France after January, as there is no method of preserving them.Butter is likely to be hi h in December through the scarcity of fod er ibis year, und frozen salmon is now in goo demand in France.The Franco-Canadienne line could land the goods direct at Havre, and Charles Bossez & Co.would warehouse them and act as agents of the consigners.The.president, Mr.L.Geoffrion, re porteds on his trip to Euclacd.The address of the chamber could not be prerent- ed at the meetings of the Chambers of Commerce of the Empire, and did not appear in the minutes, because it was not in the form of a resolution.He h endeavoured to move an amendment À \u2018the resolution presented by the Ottawa and Toronto Boards of Trade in favour of the contribution by the colonies to the naval and military de- fo ence of the Empire, to the effect that à there must be no written law, but a reliance on the loyalty of the colonies.He could, however, secure no seconder.! steele a IMPERIAL LIMITED.perfect biograph filme of the Ee l'Enbaiee re secured near À ope the other der by Mr.Bitzer.net fon the American Biogra;

NDON, September 6.\u2014The Admiralty ba ened A dmrral Seymour\u2019s detailed report of the attempt to relieve the legations at Pekin.It covers the operations already described in the Star, and concludes: The primary object of the expeditions to reach Pekin and relieve the legations failed.Success was only possible on the as sumption that the lmperial troops, with whose government we \u2018were not at Wir, would at least be neutral.Their turning of their arms against us, certainly their conniving at the destruction of the railway and probably their actually joining therein, made failure inevitable for the undertakings of the expedition.Jor its conduct and issue I am respon- gible.The destruction of the valuable armoury at Hsiku may be regarded as some object gained.When the somewhat unusual character of the force, a combination of eight national- is considered, it may be conceded that its harmonious action reflects credit on the various members of the venture.think it will tend to foster international sympathies.The report thanks the various commanders, especially Captain Von Usedom, of the German warship Hertha, who was the senior officer next to Admiral Seymour.PRAISE FOR ADMIRAL KEMPFF.Annexed to the report are copies of let ters sent to the senior officer of cach nation: ality engaged.Most of these are compui- mentary notes identical for the greater part, but each ending with a paragraph referring particularly to the officers with the expedition.: ] That to Rear-Admiral Kempff runs as fol- ows: .\"I cannot.conclude my letter without expressing to you, sir, the high admiration have for Captain MeCalla, who accompanied us in command nf your officers and men.Their post was usually in the advanced guard, where their zeal, and \u201cgo\u201d were praised by all.; \u201cI regret to state that Captain McCalla was wounded in three places; but, considering the gallant way in which be exposed himself, am only equally surprised and thankful that he is alive.Had he been thoroughly British he could not have stood by me more loyally in every way and carried out more promptly any wish I expressed.\u2019 \u201c1 may, indeed, ray the same of all those of his command.I'hail this experience as further proof of the good feeling so happily existing between our nations, which is by no one more valued than by your brother sailors in our navy.\u201d \u2019 CANTON IS DISTURBED.Great Britain\u2019s Policy is to be Prepared for Whatever May Come in China.LONDON, September 6, 4 a.m.\u2014Accord- ing to a Hong Kong despatch, dated vester- day, Canton \"is more disturbed.Native shops dealing in foreign goods have been looted and sinister rumours prevail, Gen.Alfred Gaselee\u2019s despatch, which shows that the situation in Pekin was unchanged on August 29, is the only Chinese news this morning.The cancellation of the order holding back the fourth Indian brigade is regarded ae important.It shows that whatever the ontcome of the Russian policy, the British Government.is determined to have sufficient troops on the spot adequately to protect British interests.Considerable significance is attached to the statement by the Journal de St.Peters- burg as possibly indicating a modification of Russian policy.This paper is the organ of the Russian Foreign Office, its editor being a councillor of state.It iz noted while the Journal de St.l\u2019etersburg announces Russia's determination tn maintain the solidarity of the powers, it only mentions the withdrawal of the ministers and not of the troops, to Tien Tsin.Tt is believed that the powers might agree to such a modifica: tion of the original Russian proposal.SACRED PRECINCTS INVADED.Allied Troops Marched Into Forbidden City on August 28.(Special to the Star.)

WASHINGTON, September 6.\u2014 The United States Government has received from itm representatives at foreign capitals \"much material information in regard to the attitude of the powers on the Russian proposal to evacuate Pekin.These give the nature of the responses made by Russia to certain of the powers.It is stated authoritatively that if there was at any time a prospect of a serious international clash this has been very largely, if not entirely, removed by the \u201charmonious character of the communications the several governments are making.The exact nature of the responses is not made public by the State Department for there are yet some replies to be transmitted and until all of them are in the pegotia- tions are considered in such an incomplete form that they ill not be made public.It is said, however, that the enswers go much beyond the tentative character cf those heretofore referred to, and are of a conclusive nature, so far as showing the purposes of the governments, although they may not be regarded as conclusive as to the particular proposition advanced by Russia.The responses are understood to be rather long and somewhat argumentative, similar in this respect to the American responses.On the whole the general tendency of the responses is such as to give entire satisfaction here as to the course of the negotiations.GERMANY MAY COMPROMISE.The\u2019 German Foreign Office appears to be active in furthering the negotiations, and quite a number of messages have pass cd between Washington and Berlin, Those persons mostly to have a correct understanding of Clermany\u2019s attitude, look for the suggestion of a compromise, or middle course, which will be neither an accept: ance nor a rejection of the Russian proposal, but will be such a satisfactory middle ground that all the powers, including Russia, can agree to it.In another diplomatie quarter the strong belief is expressed that the requisite compromise will be found by China re-estab- lishing a government and naming peace commissioners, Official intimations haye reached Washington that steps are now being taken towards the appointment of such a peage commission, including Li Hung Chang, the viceroys of Nankin and Wu Chang, and Prince Ching, though reports also have named Yung Yu and Hs Tung in place of the two pacific viceroys.But.while there is doubt as to the per sonnel of the commis-ion, it is quite gen- crally accepted among officials that some such move on the part of China has matured, and will take form in Washington very soon.A STAR\u2014THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1500.LATE DEVELOPMENTS IN CHINA * LESSEN DANGER OF GENERAL CLASH In that event it is believed by diplomatic officials that the entire status of the ne gotiations between the powers might be changed and that Russia no longer would feel impelled to insist upon the withdrawal of her minister and troops from Pekin, as all these matters would be subject for the commission iteelf to deal with.It is pointed out also that in the six days since the Russian-American notes were given to the world, the sentiment has been growing steadily in favour of continuing the PRESENCE OF TROOPS AT PEKIN.In view of the declarations made in the American reply to Russia some question has arisen as to the course open to this country in case of a compromise or change in the present diplomatic status.It is said that the attitude of the United States is particularly favourable for adapting itself to any change in conditions.nly in one contingency of Russia's withdrawing her minister and troops has the United States Government given the positive declaration that the American troops will be withdrawn._ .The satisfactory progress of the negotiations along these lines has had the effect of directing attention to the personality of the envoys, who probably will represent the powers in China in the final settlement.The impression prevails here that Mr.Conger is eminently fitted for such a task on the part of the United States.Mr.Rockhills name is mentioned as an Alternate.in case Mr.Conger does not care to remain in Pekin, or to participate in the settlement.If the present state of affairs in China is protracted until the arrival there of Field Marshal unt von Waldersee, which should occur in about ten days or a fortnight, it is not to be doubted that the Government of Germany will endeavour to have all the negotiations with the Chinese Government conducted through that official ns a representative not of Germany alone, but of all the powers.It is gathered that strong arguments will be advanced to support the advisability of combined action through one agency in this manner as the best means of securing a specdy and generally.satisfactory termination of the Chinese trouble.If there is anv change in the military situation since Genera} Chaffee\u2019s despatc supposed to be of the 30th ulto., no word of it has reached Washington.It is understood that disturbances and outrages upon missionaries continue in some of the districts outside of Pekin.It is believed here, possibly because of these reports, that the foreign ministers in Pekin probably will enter an earnest objection to any withdrawal of troops, if their respective governments delay action upon the Rus sian proposition, until they have bad a chance to express their views.NEW YORK, September 8.\u2014The London correspondent of the New York Tribune at an early hour this morning reviewed the situation in China as follows: The opinion gains ground.that none of the powers, not even France, will return an affirmative reply to the Russian propositions.On the other hand.it is also none of them will care to send a decided negative, and efforts are now being made, either to find a middle course, or to induce Russia to withdraw her suggestion.The prevalent opinion here certainly is that Great Britain ought to retain her troops in Pekin, if any two powers will suppert her in so doing.The distrust of Li Hung Chang deepens, and it is now accepted that the Russian scheme was ur- ranged after a consultation with him.On this point an interesting statement was made yesterday by the Chinese mjnis- ter, Sir Chih Chen Lo Feng Lub, who is a strong adherent of Li Hung Chang, and was once his personal recretary.Vhen asked where he had received a telegram from Li urging him to persuade England 4 accede to the Russian proposition, Fe Luh replied in the affirmative.\u2018Russia,\u2019 he continued, \u2018\u2019has offered, at the instigation of Li Hung Chang, to remove her forces from the Capital, and has thereby taken the first step towards gén- eral peace.I do not believe that Russia's move has a double foeaning, as persistently suggested, and I certainly am unable to confirm in any degree the report that the Czar has been propitiated by the promise of Manchuria.You may discredit it entirely.\u201d aE A Asked if he had succeeded in persuading England.the minister replied: \u201cI am doing all T possibly can.T have sent a powerful memorial to Lord Salisbury and am anxiously awaiting his reply.So much depends upon that.America and Germany are hanging on the decision.Speaking officially for the moment I cannot but think that Great Britain's withdrawal or promise of withdrawal would pave the way to a speedy settlement.The Chines people generally are most anxious for peace.They are sick of war and would welcom: any negotiations which would have as a conclusion a mutual commercial basis oa more permanent lines than heretofore, Between the two countries Li Hung Chang, whatever you may assert to the NONE OF POWERS, NOT EVEN FRANCE.WILL AGREE TO TERMS OF RUSSIA contrary, is pro-European and not pro-Rus- Kian.Moreover, he is not philanthropically inclined, and does not seek for peace and reorganization of western commercial dealings, because that would benefit the powers; but because it would benefit China and the Chinese.He is progressive, and in this is diametrically opposed to Prince Tuan.\u201d To the further question, whether the Chinese Government still existed as an agent of authority, Sir Chih answered: \u201cYes; in its entirety.It has only changed its seat, as it did in 1860, and taken up a temporary residence at Shanghai.Li Hung Cbang is working in, full sympath with the Emperor and the Privy Council, who, with the Empress and Viceroy, constitute the government.All are bent on peace., ; + AS VIEWED AT 6 AM.Admiral Seymour's detailed report of his niiempt to relieve the Pekin legations was issued from the Admiralty last night.It covers 28 pages of foolscap and is a diary of the events from May 29 to June 28.The British admiral, in admitting the failure of the expedition, says that succesd was only possible on the assumption that the Imperial troops would at least be neutral.By turning their arms against the relief force they made the failure inevitable.When the somewhat unusual character of the force, viz., a combination of eight different nationalities, is considered, it may, he thinks, be conceded that their harmonious action reflects credit on all concerned., Admiral Seymour acknowledges his t itude to the various commausling officers for their hearty co-operation, and especially refers to Captain von Usedom, of the rman navy, who was the senior officer present after himself, and Captain McCalla, of the United States navy.Whe latter officer was lightly wounded in three places.Gen.Gaselee sends a short account of the military parade through the Forbidden City on August 28.Each country was represented in proportion to its strength, and the order of the contingents was based on the same consideration.\u201cThe nomination of Yung Lu
