ten.iv.{tut when \u2018political caucus\u2019 was shoïtei com the body of the hall, then the delegates removed their cigars, and ten men wanted to speak at once.Yes, the \u2018caucus\u2019 had been at work, and delegates have been impressed into the re- | spective aervices of Salt Lake City, Kansas, and Augusta, aud the prime question \u2014\u2014 F3 IE ToL LIE NAYES LILI TS Ÿ \u2018 \u2018 = ee

long undulation they passed through | the streets, and of some six hundred ladies and gentlemen, whose bosom's lord \u2018 sat lightly on his throne, one gets a ple-! ture fit for the parlor of the citizen, who, printing to it, says, \u2018I helped to make that.\u2019 The firemen, then, were driven through the city, and afterwards to the mountain, at the top of wkich a bounteous luncheon was partaken of.And when darkness begar to fall upon the beauty through which the laughter ran, there was a descent, and a drive to Sohmer Park, where a special entoriainment was given In honor of the visitors.The delegates received an ovation upon their arrival at Sochmer Park in the evening.The floor of the immense pavilion was already occupied by a dense crowd of spectators who rose to their feet and cheered lustily when the visitors entored and were escorted to the reserved seats in the gallery.A choice programme of attractions had been prepared and the fire engineers seemed to thoroughly enjoy the entertainment.The main feature of the evening was the appearance \u2018 MR.DANIEL LARKIN.Treasurer.cf the police band with their fine new costume.They made a decided hit In the playing of the opening march and were cheered to.the echo.A march played by the Park and Police bands combined brought down the house, and in response to repeated cries of \u2018encore.\u2019 the two bands struck up \u2018Yankee Doodle,\u201d which was the signal for wild enthusiasm in every part of the hall, Col.Stevenson and Chief Benoit being specially demonstrative of their appreciation of the compliment paid to the clty's gUCsS Jd.The members of the convention, it is perhaps needless to say, are fuil of praise for Montreal and the hospitality of its citizens.They bave been around the city pretty freely, and particularly they have examined with attention our several fire stations.Captain Gillen of the in- sitrance patrol of Chicago, which corre- 8ponds to our salvage corps, speaks high- Iy of the la\u2018ter, but considers that every salvage corps should be entirely independent of the fire brigade, and be an Insurance patrol pure and simple.Mr.J.E.T.Dixon is the caterer for ths

decide this matter now, and then have nothing but empty seats for the remein- SE 4 gy i A LE EU LY Vi) oy J 724 7 A EXPLAINING THE NEW FIRE der of the convention, for it was obvious\u2019 that if those who had formed the party caucus obtained what they wanted, they would go home, and the business for which they met, namely, the discussion of topics, would not be carried out.Chief | Sweenie, of Chicago, did not want the .political caucus.He wanted topics, busi- | ness.the carrying out of the programme.| But if they got out of the regular line, by deciding now the placa of next meeting, why the convention might as well gdjourn fizz thelr star.at once.For bis part he would quit right introduced, and of which there was a test made on the square later on, while Mr.Werthelm, of Chicago, degcr nted \u201cyen tbe beavties and merits of asbestos.1 company this gentleman represents manu- faotures asbestes clothing for firemen.This clothing is quite fireprocf, and one may walk through the flames unhurt with asbestos trousers, jacket, and mask.To be sure, in process of time, if the flames be very flerce, and the stay in the burn- ESCAPE.ing building long, the clothing will get het, in which event the flreman will retreat.Mr.Wertheim, sn a poetic out- burat, deseribed the lakes and mountains of tho Province of Quebec.which is the hope of the ashestos, and concluded a highly ornate paper by recommending his gods with the minuioness of a tradesman coupled with the fervor of a poet.After this the convention adjourned to : witness practical tests with the several apparatus exhibited in the rink.This movement was hailed with delight, PA for it is not so much papers as entertainment the bulk of the members care for, and the convention is, in the case of many, a feature of a brief holiday.The patience of the exhibitcr knows no hmit, and if one will only pay him tho courtesy to look solemn, ne will take a pride In talking and showing by the hour.The Haven Vehicle Brake, to be used on heavy trucks, and the new engine of the American Fire Engine Company, wera tested on the square, and drew a large and Interested crowd.The brake was at- \u2018ached to an extension ladder, which was drawn by three horses, These.put to their utmost speed, drew the ladder along Dor- chester street, when, at a given signal, the brake was applied.The response was immediate and effective, but, as several delegates remarked, the test is not the leve! street, but the rush down the steep \u201cbil, It 1s claimed, however, that it would- be equal to the severest test of this sort which Montreal, a city of hills, could afford.The new fire engine was alse teost- ed, and gave satisfaction to the exhibit committee and the appreciative crowd, throwing streams reaching an altitude of 250 feet._ In the rink the fire sppamatus, inetading tata RER air Were fnspecfed, and the convention had the cpportunity of seeing Mr.Werthe:m put his asbestos to a very practical test, as that gentleman, with great hilarity, rushed into a burning shed at the back of the rink in a suit marle of the material, and came out scathe- lees.The invention certainly should have an important bearing upon fire fighting, as, if two or three men in each company were clad is asbestos suits, they could carry the stream into places which could not be approached by the ordinary fireman, and thus save both property and life.Mr.Oakley's extension ladder and platform.cf which some account has been given in this paper, seceived a considerable share of attention,amongst those who took an, intelligent interest in \u2018the working of the model, being Mr.Bulmer, chairman of the Harbor Commissioners.And thus, with this Inspection, with pleasant dawdling, prodigious smoking, hack and street car rides, the morning passed, and at two o'clock, a merry party assembled at the Grand Trunk station,and took the train to Lachine, from which they were conveyed to Caughnawaga.The rapids followed, and this evening the vartv will witness a fete at Boucherville, which is to be illuminated in their honor.The following is the programme for tomorrow: At 9 a.m.meeting for business.At ?o'clock, parade of Montreal Fire Department on the Champ de Mars, in the rear of the City Hall, and Court House, after which an exhibition will be given of several fire extinguishing appliances.The balance of the afternoon will be devoted fo yspecting the exhibits in the skating rink.FIREMEN.DEDICATED TO OUR VISITORS.« rag j'Üttizen soldiers who battle with flame, Dwellers in peace !n the midst

flled in court this morning.In this document Messrs.Cohen & Son first pray \u2018acte\u2019 of the Mayor's admission that the contract was complete upon the passing of the resolution awarding it and before the signing of the written contract.They then go on to say that nevertheless, they find it necessary to compel the Mayor to sign, because the city and its officials refuse to accept delivery of the coal until the contract is duly signed.Proceeding, they add that the Mayor had po discretion to exercise in the matter, but was absolutely bound to sign, and by his refusal he acts in disobedience and contempt of the city council.The resolution of the council awarding the contract is legal, valid and binding, within the powers of the city council, and conclusive of the plaintiffs\u2019 right to cxact the fulfilment of said contract.Rule 34 of the orders of the council respecting the sanction of the finance committee for supply votes, is a mere subordinate regulation relating to procedure only, made by the ccuncil for its own guldance and not upon pain of nullity, and if it was followed literally in the present instance, It was tacitly suspended by virtue of rule 35.The flnanco committee, upon the request of Ald.Costigan, authorized the water committee to call for coal tenders, and plaintiffs\u2019 tender was made !n response to the call so made.The Mayor's pretensions as to apprepriations are no defenca to the present proceedings and relate, not to the execution of the contract, but to the payment for the coai, and are therefore premature and irrelevant.Rule 48 of the council prohibiting committee meetings while councll sits, was -\u2014 \"204 eran a Sa ae 7 RE en roan Te a re ps not infringed.as the matter was most urgent, and the Mayor's sanction was in fart obtained.Besides, like rule 34, rule 48 is alse a mere subordinate regulation.After declaring that the resolution of the council was valid and intra vires, Cohen & Son repeat their willingness to complete the centract, potent against the delays and default to do so, and hold the Mavor and city responsible for the whole, WILL OF THE LATE I'EV.J.I.BRAY.The will of the late Rev.J.D.Dray, in his

protection must see that proper protection is promptly restored in every industry that suffers froin this legislation.ie OCR DETECTIVE FORCE.A THOROUGH REORGANIZATION REQUIRED.THE PUBLIC HAS NO CONFIDENCE IN IT.The superintendent of police has demanded an enquiry into the working of the police force.Owing to tne severe comments in the press in general as to the inefficiency of the detective department, the Chi-f thought that this was the only course left for him to pursue.The letter demanding the enquiry was sent this morning to the Mayer.It said that owing to the charges made against the police force the superintendent demanded an investigation, and that he was willing to abide by the result.There is no doubt that the Mayor will grant the application.We give interviews with well-known citizens which clearly show that a great deal of dissatisfaction exists with the detective force as av present constituted.Mr.Harcourt, acting manager of the Bank of Commerce, being asked his opinion of the Montreal detective force, said that he had a very poor opinion of it.Some weeks ago the bank had a case which necessitated the services of a detective, and instead \u2018of sending for a city detective they sent for one belonging to a private firm.By doing so, of course, they had to pay for his services.The feeling was that the detective force was far from what a city the size of Montreal should possess.The assistant manager of the Merchants Bank was of the opinion that there was not a great deal of crime in Montreal, and that the detective force.as far as he knew, did pretty fair work.He thought if larger salaries were paid to detectives that more capable men could be got.It was unfair to expect to get a good detective for a salary that a second or third rate clerk draws.Only clever men made good detectives.Mr.Weir, manager of the Ville Marie Bank, had not given much thought to the matter, but was of the opinion that the city was not as well protected as it should be.Ald.Lyall said : \u2018I think the press is right in complaining about the detective force ; it is a disgrace to the city, and should be thoroughly reorganized.I am willing to do all I can to secure a thorough investigation.Like the \u201cWitness,\u201d I think an independent commission should hold the enquiry, as the one heid some time ago by aldermen failed shamefully.I have not forgotten this pigeon-holed report, and at the first opportunity I am going to make a motion in Council that it be produced and read.The feeling among jewellers and business men in general was that the detective department wantcd \u2018mending with a new one à terest on the money to bc anpliei to pay | A.Turcotte, merchant, under the name.principal creditor is Lame Julienne Del- SAME RATES 45

Instead of one, and the attendance was ¢ory large, numbering up into the thousands every dav, and reaching six or a .ven thousand last Sunday.which was: the grand climax of the convention, the greatest day of all.The great leaders and workers, speakers and musicians of ; the Alliance have been present with bun- dreds of assistants from away, and tho | interest and enthusiasm in the great work of the organization has been very high.At the great missionary meeting on.Sunday over $40,000 was raised, which is | not bad for the hard times.It is more than last year but less than two years ago.It was a great meeting, a wonder- | ful meeting, which will live long in the memory of all present.It was one of the very greatast days in the missionary annals of America, and as one result of it over fifty missionaries will at once be sent abroad.Though some of the money was given on the impulse and enthust- asm of the moment, by far the most if it was given with a clear and cool realization of what it meant and after previous careful deliberation of the subject.The Rev, A.B.Simpson, the brilliant bead of this voung but great alliance movement, is indeed, a wonderful man.The \u2018Old Orchard \u2018Sea-Shell,\u201d says: \u2014 \u2018Sunday was a perfect day for the closing of the convention.It was a delightful morning.and at an early hour people began to gather in the great au- ditorilum of the eautiful grove, and around the stand covered with its banners, missionary maps and mottces.An early service at 6.30 a.m.was led by the.[A Rev.A.E.Funk, and was devoted to praver for missionary work.A prays and pralse meeting was held in the grove at 9 a.m.and was led by the Rev.Stephen Merritt, of New York, and was a most {nspiring and enthusiaStic meeting Two thousand were present at the opening and more than thre= times as many at its close.There were short testimonies Irom scores rang with song.At about 10.30 the children's zllilance which had been meeting in tlie tabernacle marched down to the gr ve in a body.led by Dr.Wilson and Miss Tobay.The great crowd now num- tering six or seven thousand people, arnze and waved their handkerchiefs with a burst of song, as the little ones rule meats on the stand.Dr.Simpson then gave the great mis- sinnarv sermon looked forward to as the feature of the convention, and to hear which thousands had come expressly to *ha grova.It was a most inspiring sight that met the great leader.In the seuts où the cool and beautiful grove werg the upraised faces of no less than six thousand people and the occasion at the close of the great convention would maka eloquent a far less brilliant speaker than the great Dr.Simpson.It 7roved to he no regular sermon upon nne fixed text.but a running fire of comment and lessons from various verses.As the selections were read Dr.Simp-4 son briefly commented upon each, draw- fing his grand missionary lessons of truth, responsibility.and reward.and showing how the world must be evangelized at once for the great coming of the Lord.In burning language he depicted the condition of the great masses of the unsaved in China, Africa, India.and the Pacifir Islands.and thelr awful customs, and in thrilling words ho made a plea for help to be sent to them.He wished four out of five American ministers might be sent out as missionaries.Heo spnke strongly against the expendi- tera of money for grand church organs, for frescoing and for personal luxuries when it is so much needed In saving souls, Ir speaking of the past vear's work nf the Alliance he =aid that in spite of the Far\u201d times all the obligations of the Al- Marca had been met, the missinnaries abrnad eared far and preparations made for sending rut a hundred more the coming vear.In the past month $17.000 has been given it for missionary work.The work of the Alliance in the misstenary field {s increasing gloriously, and is the most economical work done.While other denominations pay on an average | $2.000 apiece for their missionaries, the Alllance missionaries are supported in the =sam~ fields for $500.There are thir- tv on tre Congo.under charge of Mr.Reid.Mr.Fuller in India is at the | head of forty Allance missionaries.Mr.Lelrcheur in China has seventy missicrariez there with him.In Japan there are a good number of Alliance missionaries.and alsn many in South America 2nd in all the varinus fields.\u2018Theze are all supported and many mere must be sent abroad even as a re- | sult of this convention.We must make A sacrifirs and a great sacrifice to win glury.There is no glory in giving what we can give easily and do not miss That and much more is our debt that List be paid as well as any debt to our [eliow men.We must give not only our prayers and hearts and what we can ea-!ly to ihis work of God but we must «reat safrifices tn heip those in the luaar nn arhen dorkness of foreign lands.The; sh» uher!

missionary collection, with the exception of the 360,000 collection two years ago, ever taken here.About forty thousand dollars had been raised inside of an hour and the Doxology was sung with a will.When the baskets came in which had been passed around for smaller contributions and the pledge cards, they contained quite an additional amount of money in sums ranging from one cent to twenty dollars, and also several pleces of jewellery.There was one : Class ring with the raised figures '87 upon it.It was pearly two p.m.when the | meeting was finally

chester street, to make enquiry concerning the truth of the report that the Rabh has been privately granting divorces.Mr.Weisburgh, the tailor, of Beaver Hall hill, offered to act as interpreter, and the reporter was shown into a little dark room at the back of the house, where the Rabbi sat among his books at the head of a table.Seven or eight stalwart Russian Jews gradually came into the room

Quebec, Aug.15.\u2014A correspondent of the \u2018 Electeur,\u201d writing from Plessisville, expresses surprise at the dragging of Mr.Laurier\u2019s name into connection with the recent disturbances at Quebec and asks why the Opposition chieftain, as a party leader, should have been invited to disavow such manifestations of lawlessness.He points out that the late Sir John A.Macdonald was once called upon to repudiate the acts of the rowdies in Toronto, who stoned William O'Brien, the Irish Nationalist, and adds: \u2018 For my part I believe that neither Mr.Laurier nor the Conservative leader of the Dominion should be obliged to publicly disavow through the press such reprehensible acts as may be committed in the Canadian cities.Moreover, those who know the spirit of liberty whicn animates cur distinguished leader, as wel! as his deep sense of justice to all, should know better than to drag his name into connection vith such an incident, for Mr.Laurier, no more than Sir John Thompson, Sir John Abbott, Sir John A.Macdonald and all the other Sir Johns whom heaven has in store for us, can be held accountable for these unfortunate difficulties, which should be dealt with by the police courts.Jf we carry on in this way we shall see before loug Mr.Laurier and the Domin- fon Premier constituted town constables, when the two great leaders of the day will have trouble to maintain order, especially in Ontario.THE LEVIS MILITARY CAMP.The military encampment at St.Joseph de Levis was formally opened to-day, when the St.Johns Infantry company, already on the ground, were

statement of Mr.Delaney, the leading butcher of the Champlain market, and who has obtained the contract for victualling the fleet.He said to-day that the squadron uses daily some tvs hundred lbs.of

The more they visit one another the better they will understand that in essentials they are one people ; that both are self-gov- erning peoples ; that both have very much the same methods and aims and | ideas.Canadians and Americans, though verse governments, are brethren, and these conventions show how good a thing it is for brethren to dwell together in unity.That should be a secondary object of the National Association of Fire Engineers.Firemen are the soldiers of peace, and when both are at home after such a convention as this every Canadian fireman, every American fireman, by hearty choice under di- Referring to tho recent prop~sal to im- | pose a tax upon theatres and to the report of an interview with the proprietcr of the \u2018Theatre Royal,\u2019 that such places of amusement should rather be subsidized as being at the same time real schools for morals for the pub- He, the \u2018Croix\u2019 says, in its turn: \u2018The theatre, and that c¢ne in particular, a school for morals!

attention to the weakness of the Montreal detective force, and shown how useless it is in protecting citizens from robbery or making arrests after serious crimes have been committed.The feeling that such an antiquated department should be replaced by a more modern one is general, and there can be but little doubt that the strong public sentiment in this matter will bear good fruit.That the force from some cause or other does not give the city the protection which it is paid to All one has to do is to note the number of burglaries, murderous assaults, dynamite outrages and other serions crimes which ars reported in the daily papers, and for which no arrests are ever made, to be instantly eonvinced that there is comething radically wrong with this department.At police station it is fact that for over nothing but discord among the detectives.Time and time again the Chief of Police has been called upon to settle loud and bitter quarrels among the detectives.Not many weeks ago one of the detectives, in the presence of several reporters and a dozen policemen, defied the chief detective, and the result was a low quarrel.It is also a well-*nown fact that the detcctives are constantly quarreling among themselves as to who shall have the easy \u2018jobs, or \u2018Jobs\u2019 that will bring in some reward.a well-known iwo years has raged Failing the demoralizing tip the sor- vice is liable to be less alert.The eagerness to get cases that \u2018pay\u2019 leads to no end of discord.So deep-rooted is this discord that some of the detectives have asked the Chief of Police to take them oft the detective department and put them in stations.The men who made this request were the best men on the force.The chief detective has { PAR A A AT M A MAN LEON A CS AN, weber tein mae a a

who are weal enough to attend thdse shows, who would allow what is said and done on the stago to be re-enacted in her parlor.\u2019 The writer then proceeds to say that if theatres cannot be prohibited, they should at least be looked after and restricted instead of being encouraged, and since these who go there have got money to waste, the theatres should he taxed unmercifully.This would cause admission fees to be in- creaged, and the spectators would eventually be paying the tax themselves, which is only right.The article winds up as follows: \u2018Alcoholic liquors and tobacco are heavily taxed and rightly so.The nse of those dangerous things is thus restricted, but the theatre, from a moral point cf view, is much more dangercus than whiskey or the pipe.\u2018Before taxing the water of the poor father of family, before taxing laundries and honest trade, tax first those places of amusement.\u2018Let those who have the means to amuse themselves, be the first to contribute to the public expenses.\u2019 \u2014_\u2014\u2014\u2014 PERSONAL, Captain John Caskin, of Kingston, is at the Baimeral Hotel.The Rev.H.Kittson, of Berthier, is at the St.Lawrence Hall.Mr.A.8.Towney, of

a new era in its bis- tory has been fnaugurated.The corner stone of the new buillding was laid by the Lev.Dr.Chiniquy, the great apostle of Trench Protestantism in Canada.The ceramoany commenced at 3 o'clock, Mr.John Hardt, the president of the executive committee, in the chair.À goodly gathering of the French and English friends of the cause graced the p:atform end surrounding space and imparted cn- ergy and enthusiasm to the proceedings.When the opening hymn had been sung, the Rev.Prof.Coussirat read a passago of scripture, and the Rev.Mr.Morin, the pastor, followed with a fervent prayer.Bpeeches were then delivered by the Rev.Dr.Warden, the Rev.Mr.Lafleur, and Mr.George Lighthall, all of whom spoke in highly encouraging terms of the progress of the congregation.Then the old man, who seems to belong to the Reformers rather than to us, whose reverend age and patriarchal aspect seem to number him among those who are already of sainted memory, took the trowel ; tn hand, and in a few moments it was an- .nounced that the corner stone was laid.In a cavity in the stone were placed an historical sketch of the congregation, a few coins bearing the date 1894, the last issue of each of the English and French daily papers, two tracts by Dr.Chiniquy, ent!tled \u2018Papal Idolatry\u2019 and \u201cWhy I left the Church of Rome\u2019 and a copy of the programme and Invitation card of to-dav.The stone was inscribed with the date 1894.After prayer by the Rev.Calvin Amaron, the ceremony was brought to a \u2018close with the singing of a hymn, and the Dberediction wa3 pronounced.THE CHURCH AS The following commmittes had charge of the proceedings: Mr.John Herdt, presl- dont; tha Rev.S.J.Taylor, vice-presi- dent; the Rov.J.L.Morin, secretary; the Revs.Jas.Fleck, C.E.Amarou, Dr.A.B.Mackay, and Messrs.Gregoire, Labelle and Paul Gentil.he church, which is at 1872 St.Catherine street, will be a handsome, me- dium-sized structure of gray limestone with a high, ornamental tower at the entry corner, surmounted by a spire, The auditorium will be capable of seating seven or eight hundred and will be comfortable and well heated and lighted.The basement will be well equipped and fitted for two Sunday-schools, one French and the other Italian.The architect is Mr.G.Mann, of Paris, France, and the contractors Messrs, Metivier & Brousseau.The church will cost the congregation $13,000.other congregations.The people cf St.John's Church, while : not very numerous as yet, are exceedingly hopeful just new.They believe that the naw building wiil attract French Protes- rants, who, bv reason of the poor equlp- ment and limited accommodation of Rus- sejl Hall, were induced to connect thein- salves with English congregations.They alss feel that the elegant building will remove In some degree tHe odium which attaches tn French Protestantism among the better class of Roman Catholics.The Rev.J.L.Morin, M.A, pastor ~f tho church, was bora at St.Roch des Aulnals, A As only $8,000 of this amount is, on hand.assistance is looked for from | : L'Islet county.He received his primary i education at Pointe-aux-Trembles schools, and St.Francls College, Richmond.He entered the Presbyterian College, Montreal, in 1875, went through the literary course, and then entered McGill College in 1578, graduating in 1882, and taking the Lorne gold medal and first-class honors in modern languages, Ilterature and history.He then took a theological ! REV.J.L.MORIN.LA course in the Presbyterian College, Mont- | real, and graduated in 1885.He crossed \u2018the lines immediately after and went to !

French-Canadian literature.It was the subject of his thesis in French presented to McGill University for the degree of : MA., which was conferred on him in 1885.Trese efforts to acquire an intl- mate knowledge of the beautiful French languay;e were rewarded when, in 1892, he was appotrted by the governors of Me- Gill University a lecturer in the French language and literature, belng assistant to Prof.Darey.Mr.Morin is a born teacher and in order to fit himself for his heloved calling he took the academic diploma of McGill Normal School in 1553.Before entering MeGill College he taught French In St.Francis College, and during his studies both in McGill and In theology taught French In the Montreal Academy, the : Senior High School and at the Y.M.C.\"A.In 1887 he married the eldest daughter of the Rev.Dr.Chiniquy.og TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES.(Special to the \u2018 Witness.\") Toronto, Aug.16.\u2014A board of concilia- \"tion to cettle disputes between capital ji and labor, to consist of one representative elected by capitalists, one by labor .organizations and a third to be appointed by :he Provincial Government is about to .be established.Particulars and due no- \u2018tification will be published in the next is- \u201csue of the \u2018Ontario Gazette.\u201d Legislation \"empowering the organization of the board lin question was passed at the last ses- i sion and was duly noted in the \u2018 Witness.\u201d A Lande sw eer cae a me eee ey Pepper wa LIL ON rte PE THE MONTREAL DAILY WITNESS.THE WAR IN THE EAST.CHINESE BOUND TO EXTERMINATE THE JAPS.A PRICE SET UPON THEIR HEADS BY THE GUVERNOR OF FONRMOSA\u2014FRANCE AND RUSSIA AND GREAT BRITAIN AND GERMANY CHOOSE SIDES\u2014 MAIL ADVICES FROM THE SCENE, London, Aug.16\u2014The \u2018Central News\u2019 correspondent in Shanghai says the Governor of Formosa has published a schedule of rewards for Chinese who capture or destroy Japanese ships, or Kill or capture Japanese soldiers or sailors.The'soldiers or sailors may be taken dead or alive.almost $2,000, for the destruction of a big Japanese warship.For the destruction or capture of a small warship, he promises 400 taels, or abont $1,200.Two hundred taels will be pald for the head of a Japanese officer, and 100 taels for a head of a Japanese private.The \u2018Central News' correspondent also gays: A fleet of eight vecsels, westward bound, was reported as passing Chefoo on Aug.14.Chinese officers are leaving the country in large numbers to join the Chinese troops entering Corea.The merchant steamships \u2018Taku\u2019 and \u2018Smith\u2019 have given up foreign protection and have gone back to the Chinese flag.They left this port yesterday with troops and rice.It is reported here that France and Russia have an understanding favorable to Japan and England and Germany one favorable to China.London, Aug.16.\u2014The Shanghai corre- pondent of the \u2018Times\u2019 says fifty thousand Japanese troops have been landed in Corea and that more are landing almost constantly.The Chinese fleet is passive.\u2018In Japan, the war fever is intense and universal,\u2019 says the correspondent.\u2018The press and popular orators, both under off - cial control, are developing schemes for the conquest of Manchuria.As the Japanese Government continues to exercise a strict censorship over all news, everything reported concerning the war is extremely partisan.\u2019 ADVICES FROM THE SCENE.Victoria, B.C., Aug.16.\u2014Oriental papers, which were received by the steamer \u2018 Tacoma \u2019 to-day, differ as to the relative strength of Japan and China, but the opinion prevails that, taking everything into consideration, they are on tolerably equal terms.The war will be watched with interest as the first occasion wken steel-armored vessels will be in conflict.English papers in Japan ridicule the claims of Japan to a great naval victory In the first engagement as the vessels engaged were in no way equal.The King of Siam was reported to be dead when the \u2018 Tacoma ' left and H.M.S.\u2018 Rattler\u2019 had gone to Siamese waters.Since the naval fight at Gasan, the running of Japanese steamers between Jinsen and Fushan has been suspended.General travel on smaller Oriental lines is much broken, and news of an authentic nature is difficult to obtain.That the western world knows more about the Corean situation than can be learned either in Hong Keng or Yokohama, was the verdict of passengers on the \u2018Tacoma,\u2019 after looking over the late despatches in local papers.In Yokohama it is believed that the Chinese plan will be to march troops into Corea by way of Wiju and the Japanese Government is said to be taking steps accordingly.The report that the Chinese Minister was to start for home on July 23 is denied.He is said to have received orders not to leave on the withdrawal of tbe Japanese Charge d'Affaires at Pekin.From Hong Kong reports as to the Cor- ean difficulty are still less satisfactory, the news being of a wild nature.Lieutenant-General Takashima is said to have expressed himself as follows, at Osaka: \u2018The military.equipment of the country has been perfected by degrees since the organization of divisions in 1885, and, at present, the Japanese army need not fear any country in the world with the exception of three or four powers.In comparing our navy with that of China Japan is inferior in point of tonnage by some three thousand tons, but China has vessels with speed of only twelve knots, while Japan has vessels with a speed of eighteen knots.\u2019 THE RUMOR, PISCREDITED.London, Aug.16 -The officials at Japanese legation say they have heard nothing to the effect that seven Chinese vessels were sunk by the Japanese fleet on Aug.10 or 11.The report is discredited.\u2014\u2014tg>\u2014 AT COTE ST.LUC RANGES.(Special to the \u2018Witness.\u201d) Rifle Range, Cote St.Luc, Aug.16.\u2014 The closing day of the P.Q.R.A.meeting opened with splendid weather and the result is that some high scores are being made in the Carslake match, which start- od at half-past eight.A surprising fact is that the number of entries in this match is only 114, a few less than last year and only seven teams.The Carslake is considered the big match of the meet and the most dificult te shoot as at the first stage, two hundred yards, the firing is done standing.The first stage of the match developed that the Sixth Fusiliers, who now hold the cup, are going to make a hard fight to retain it, and they have eight shots trying their best.Their team 1s composed of Col.Sergt.Riddell, Col.Sergt.How- Corporal W.Drysdale, Pte.J.Scott, Band Sergt.G.Lavers and Pte.Cameron.The only possible that has been made so far was also by a member of the Sixth, Pte.Lloyd, at four hundred yards.CARSLAKE TROPHY.Presented by Mr.George Carslake, of Montreal.for annual competition at the P.Q.R.A.matches.Open to the active militia of the Dominion of Canada.Value.0).For the aggregate scores in the above competition of eight previously named offi- ~ers.non-cominissioned officers or men of any battalion or corps in the Dominion, being affiliated with the P.Q.R.A.(See special regulations, page 10.)
