Star Bureau, 185 Broadway, NEW YORK, July 20.Spain is to have no respite untal she gives in completely.The forces of the United States are en route to Porto Rioo, Watsou's fleet is about to sail for Spain and more troops are ready to leave San Francisco for the Philippines and other Spanish possessions in the Pacific.The United States is now moving with such irresistible force and power that Spain ap pears to be dazed and unable to realize that the is threatened with an annihilution as a state.There is more in Commodore Schley's prediction that the war promises to result in a change of the frontiers of Eurvpe, than is apparently dreamt of in Spain.There is \u2018another way of looking at the matter, however.If the Spamsh Government cannot cede territory without imperilling its own existence, the eooner the United States takes tion of all Spain's colomes the better, and the more quickly Spanish possessions falls into the hands of the American armies, Spain's dominion over them will Le obliterated, and the position of the monerchy will] be different.Then the issue will be internal omly, and the adhesion of the inilitary will probably save the throne.In this view talk of peace and mediation will have no foundation as long as the Red and Yellow floats over a single sland which bas owed allegiance tp Spain.INCREASING THE NAVY.Watson's trip to Spain will probably re-

dashing bravery the most conspicuous aspects of it.The actual observer is struck more especi with the hard work and the filth of it few moments in the fighting on Friday, July 1, both at El Caney an uan, were all that tbe imagination had pictured in vance.The c arge up the hill on th breastworks, and tinally on the stone fort outside of El Caney, was thrilling as a spectacle, and the taking of the San Juan fort, after a terrible climb up the steep height in the face of magazine gun fire, was equally inspiring.Then, too, the artillery fire was exciting when the.shell rtruck squarely the wall aimed at, or the shrapnel burst over the enemy's rifle pits.But beyond these, the battles of Friday, Saturday and Sunday morning were hard- Iv from the point of view of the pictu: resque what one should expect.The soldiers scattered over the fields and through the underbrush, firing when they caught wight of a mark, and not knowing whether they hit their man or not, somehow did not seem engaged in such a battle as one had pictured from his reading.Doubtless the smokeleas powder had most to do with this robbing of warfare of its effectiveness as a mere picture.\u201cThe uncleanliness of it all has been ever present, however, and ially after a Inll of forty-eight hours in the fighting, does it force itself on the attention.Equally prominent is the phyiqal labor and herdship imposed on the soldier: After all, mere fighting is the least of his busi.noes, even in the time of actual eampaign- ing.He is cook.dav laborer, hospital attendant, Toad builder, everything.Inci- dertally he fires seventy-five or one bun- cartridges on occasional days.AN UNPLEASANT JOB.Perhans the long marches through the rain and mud from before dawn all day and night, and much of the next day, followed

Beware of \u2018Imitations of Same Color Wrapper, RED tleshipe of the Yankees snd they\u201d wifi | ee may take ehelter under the À by @ night of trench-digging, are what the soldier finds of most perso concern in this business of war.Alore sensitve nostrils are likely to cause one to dwell more especially on the attendant dirt and stench.It ie more than unpleasant even to think of how utterly destructive war is of that quality which \u2018the proverb ranks next to godliness.An ortunity may come for à soldier to wash a garment or handkerchief at the side of a river, but this is only when he is on some detached service.The terrible marches in the tropical sun have caused hundreds to throw away everything they were not actually wearing, 50 as to lighten their burdens.With only one shirt, there is little chance to wush it.Even if there Were, it would not stay clean long.The reads are muddy beyond the nightmare of the good roads advocate.e roads which was the centre of the battles leading up to the San Juan fortifications is a saturnalia of disorder and dis- ng swells.Dead men and horses are In evidence at intervals.Many were allowed to fester in the wet and sun for forty- eight hours before being buried.Even the word burial is a misnomer in many instances.Perhaps all the Americans.had some sort of grave dug for them, and it is only Spaniar and horses that were merely covered with earth.It was thought, apparently, that the strewing of a foot of earth was a good enough service to do for an enemy or a beast; the consequences to the Kving were overlooked.Besides all this, a num- of the slain must be scattered in the tangled woods, Your nostrils are there fore assailed with a succession of stenches as you go along.The knowledge that some of them come from human corpses intensi- fiea the overpowering feeling of disgust.As you approach the mound that is disseminating the odors your curiosity impels you to note whether the object beneath is a man or a horse.The sbape of the heap tells which it is; a leather shoe or the knee of a horse sticking out in some cases Te- moves any possible doubt.Myriads of flies buz about; masses ots writhe and crawl about where the earth is shallowest or where the decaying flesh is entirely uncovered.TURKEY BUZZARDS.Overhead flocks of turkey buzzards circie about, horrible in the ideas they suggest, but instruments in the hands \u2018of an al} wise nature that puts to shame intelligent man\u2019s horrible callousness.In the Amer- iran lines the burials have been sanitary.Spanish trenches served admirably for Spanish graves.There was a certain grim approprmateness in laying the corpses in the rifle pits in or near which the men niet their death.The loose earth that had been cast up was easily shovelled back cn the bodies.\u2018There was no further use for these rifle pits.Decaying food yields its contribution, sickening, if not so nauseating as the other.In some spots boxes of spoiled hard-tack have been emptied out to ferment and sour in the wet and heat.Soldiers have dropped little heaps of these and of bacon which they did not want to carry along.Munch of the beef served in the rations has n in such large cans that a man cannot eat half of it at one meal.Evidently there hag at times na erabundance of rations.The road is lined with f- empty boxes of beef, adding their effuvia Lo the reat.Besides the heaps of spoiled food, there are hundreds of articles which would have 8 value (onder other cireums ances.h jar ges for Springñiel ri ie in 9.Thousands of them could be pi us 4s fast

WAR.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 PEaitor of the Scottish American Expresses That Opinion.Mr.A.M.Stewart, editor of the Scot tish American, of New York, has bren spending a few days in the city visiting friends.He left for home last evening.In conversation with a reporter regarding the war, and the wisdom of ishing an Anglo-Saxon alliance, he remarked: \u201cIt is not a popular wer.The President himself, and a great many of the best people of the nation were against going to war, but now that it is on.every man wanta it pushed to a successful issue and a speedy peace.I see no reason why the people of England and the United States should not be brought very close together, a think it is coming very fast.\u201d That the Americans see .this, I fal- y believe.In the past, an alliance with {osgia has been ked about, but a : us union of the .0 sia and the United States is ridiculous on the face of it, and T am of the opinion that we are fast realizing that Britain is our national friend and ally - : Germany, France, or any other foreign country.\u201cEngland is not only the best friend, but the best customer we possess, so trade as well gs blood demand that a good understanding should exist between these tw» nations.\u201d British interests, he intimated, are all powerful in the United States, and as evi- ence of this a gentleman connected with t t Pennsylvania Railway, an institut held to be almost exclusively American, told Mr.Stewart that fully sixty per cent.of the stock was held on the other side of the Atlantic, t security having found its way into the ds of Ent- lish and Dutch investors.And it is the case all over, no le having done nearly so much as English investors to develop £ e industries and resources of the United ta Mr.Stewart was lond in his praise of Canada.\u201cI admire Canada and Canadians,\u201d he said.\u201cYou are making rapid progress.1 admire your system of Gov ernment, and I believe there iw plenty of room on this continent for both Canada and the United Sta Some politicians and some newspapers have prevented the Dominion from being as well known and app by the people of the United States as her importance demands, but ! believe that a great change will now take ce.ere is room for both countries, | and I do not think that there is any move ment quite so dead in da as annexation, although the feeling did exist in years gone past.Lars JOHNSON\u2019S BRAVERY.MONTREAL, WEDN trained powe ho will soon be able to retum to his hoe in Texas and receive the honors due the brave.He hee already received a greai: deal, and'I

HARBOR.SANTIAGO DE CUBA, via Kingston, Jamaica, July 20.\u2014The uestion has arisen between the army and navy officials: as to the disposition to be made of the balf dosen large Spanish merchant eat ers which were in 4 arbor tiago at the time of the surrender.Admirat Sampson claimed the steamers as prizes the navy.He also was desirous of Jlacing rize crews on board of them.Gen : Shafter however, to recognizè Admiral n\u2019s claims.He declared the steamers, with everything else in San ; had surrendered to him.The question, apparently, is still undecided.At any rate, the Admiral returned to his flagship without having distributed prise crews the merchantmen, and the latter are in possession of the army.- \u2014me AUSTRALIA ANXIOUS.The Colonies Do Not Want any German Interference in the Philippines.NEW YORK, July 20.\u2014 A despateh to the World from London says: ; : It is learned aon the best authority that an active interchange of views has been going ou between the Governments of the Australian colonies and the Colonial Bec- retary, Mr.Chamberhin, concerning the scheme attributed to Germany in Manila.The establishment of German influence in the Philippines would be regarded with intense dissatisfaction in Australia, mm Mr.Ch m has been strongly to induce the Imperial Government to use every influence to prevent such an eventuality._ He has Sreplied that the British Foreign Office does not regard German interferenss.in Manila as likely, because the 3 Government is anxious to avoid doing amy: thing calculated to 0 Anglo dag ican entente.But while this was * : d by

lady, from a friend in Chicago, who is interested in the advance movement of wuman- kind, is an apt illustration of the change which has come over publie sentiment in the United Btates towards Great Brita\u2018n and Canada.* * * \u201cHow many flagp\u2014how many kinds of flags do you hang on your walls?If you havn't got up the starry banner of the free, then I have beaten you in liber aliam, for

John Bull manner.Surely it has taken the old man on his blind side entirely and he is ready to kill the fatted calf and put on the robe end the ring.Strange, isn\u2019t it, that a war should seem to hold for us of this race the seeds of an enduring peace and an antagonist like Spain cause us to close up the ranks?The last vestige of animosity left the Civil war has disappeared before b the thought of an alien foe, and with it foes the last of the inberitance left by the volutionary ar.Several years ago when Bryce was lecturing here, he aske an audience whether America would like to see land crushed by a foreign enemy.There was a moment\u2019s pause, and then a storm of No!

Disavows Her Former - Sworn Testimony About The Accused.A SURPRISE FOR PROSECUTION, Manetti and Turaco Deny all Knowledge of the Coin Found in Their Premises.CAPELLO WAS NOT HEARD.- Detective Picard Describes the À Finding of the Spurious Coin in Manetti's Saloon.- There were startling developments in the n caso of the two Italians, Man- etti and Turaco, char£ed with the making of counterfeit coin in the Police Court yesterday.There were only two witnesses and one of them bad a surprise for the magistrate.Manetti it will be remembered was arrested by the detectives for having the counterfeit money in his premises.This capture .was made through a woman named May Williams alias Mooney who was among the first arrested.She gave the whole scheme \u201c away and swore out the information which resulted in Manett!'s place being searched.During the enquete, she pleaded total ignorance and said she did not know what she had previously sworn to.Both Man.ett and Turaco were present in the enquete toom and dumng the proceedings never took their eyes off her.CAPELLO NOT HEARD, Capello was brought out to repeat his ac- cusélion against Manett, but without being questioned wus sent back to tue cells, and tbe enquete broke up.For the last two weeks May and \u201cEng- lib Poly\u201d have been at liberty and it was expected would aid the law in à general Tound up of the gang.etective Picard related the circumstances of the visit made by bimzeif and the other officers to Manettl's saloon, at the corner of Lagauchetiere and St.Dominique street, the search ol the house, the finding oi the countertert money hidden in the kitchen in a cupboard which had a false bottom.Alter the find the two ltalians were ar: - Tested, bur both smd they knew nothing of the money; in

spring.Manetti, however, broke in excitedly by saying he had been there only since June.Dome former tenant must have put the coin there._ May Williams said she had had nothing to do with Monetl, out had been there for refreshments.She swore she had seen nothing suspicious there.She denied that Ni e had ever seen any of the counterteit : money, and when faced with her own 1 Bworn information that she had seen Ma- hetti actually making the comm, denied :t ner MAY'S DENIAL.Although May peaks English fluently, she said she did not know the meaning of what she had sworn to.When shown her own signature she said she must have been cruzy when she wrote it.Afterwards,however, she admitted having seen the Itahan \u201cFrenchy,\u201d making the money, but would pot repeat her statement about Manetti.She did not know Frenchy's other name.That there was rome understanding between the two can be gathered from the fact that May, after the enquete was clos ed, managed to pass in a purse to one of the prisoners.\u201cI can't swear to a lie,\u201d\" she said, when taunted with fearing the vengeance of the Italians, and that was all that could Le got out of her.Manetti and Turaco were admitted to ail on securities of $1,000 each.The bonds were accepted from Mr.W.B.Prowne, trader, Liverpool street.and Antonio Kernards, merchant, 22 Amherst street.There was considerable excitement in the \u2018court the entre afternoon, and the Ital .ians were there in large numbers.None, however, were permitted to enter the en- uuete room.The case was adjourned until Friday next, PLEBISCITE CAMPAIGN.Ways and Means in St.Lawrence Division.The temperance workers of St.Lawrence division met last night in the lecture hall of Chalmers Church, and considered nev- eral plans for canvassing the ward in the interesta of prohibition.Mr.Leet, the chairman, said that funds were urgently needed with which to prosecute the work.It was desirable that every voter in the division should be visited, and the only way to do that was to obtain copies of the voters\u2019 list from the City Clerk.As there ware several thousand voters in the division, and as the copying of the names would probably cost thirty cents per h dred, a large sum of mone vould be wanted for this purpose alone.| Then there were several other matters which de- marded an outlay of money, such as the purchase of tracts and temperance literature, etc.Iv was finally decided to visit the astors of the different churches in the division aud ascertain the best way in which their congregations might be canvassed.Subscription books were given out to several of those present and an active canvass will be at once commenced.Before the meeting clored it was decided tn meet weekly in future for the purpose of receiving reports of the work accomplished.Pr THE STABBING CASE.Mary Hart Committed to the Court of Queen\u2019s Bench.At the conclusion of her enqyete in the Police Court yesterday, Mary@Hart, the ung girl employee of the vril Manu- acturing Company, who was arrested for an all assault upon \u201cher fellow warker, Annie Vincent with a knife, elected to be tried before the Court of Queen's Bench.Evidence was taken from two more wit- neases, but as in the former instance neither could swear positively to the actual stabbing.; ; ; The knife with which the wounding is supposed to have been committed could not be identified, and on a demand from the prisoner\u2019s couneel, Mr.F.J.Curran, was excluded from the evidence, the magistrate concurring.e- case was declared a prima facia one pra the accused chose to stand her trial fore a jury.Bail was renewed for her appearance in September.\u2014epmtmr MRS.EMMETT\u2019S INJURIES.It wan Mrs.Emmett and not Mrs.Fl liott, who was so seriously burned by the

Again Discussed.The Road Committee held a lengthy meeting yesterday and disposed of a considerable\" quantity of routine business.e dangerous condition of the bridge over the mill flume on the north side o the Lachine Canal, at Seigneurs street, was again brought up.air.Ogi re, on a letter to the committee some time ago, showed that the three bridges at this place had originally been constructed by the city.The committee, however, said that the conditions were different now than at that time.The fact was that the part of ground and bridge did not belong to the city at all, but to the Government.Again, :t was being used now, or would soon be used, by the Street Railway, = that it was a difficult task to locate the responsible parties.Ald.Turner said that the bridge in ques: tion Was in a most dangerous condiuon, aud an accident for which the city wouid undoubtedly he held responsible might occur at any moment, owing to the rotten condition of the planking.Mr.JJ.L.Ethier, City Attorney, was called in, but was able to throw litde light où the matter.As it was something oi an urgent nature, however, he would consult with the City Surveyor and report to the committee in the morning.Ald.Gallery epxlained that the Govern ment held that the lewees of the water power were responsible, while Mr.Ogilvie.the principal lessee said that the city had taken charge of the bridge as shown by their ordering the Street Radway Com.pinv to establish a service across it.© Mr.Ogilvie could take the ground.he thouzht, that as the Street Rmilway Company had assumed the responsitility, it was for them to strengthen the bridge.Mr.L.O.David, City Clerk, forwarded a report.asking that statements he prepared regarding afl streets which had been for some vears used by the public, and which, It was proposed to take over.The (ity Attorney also forwarded a pa.quest, through the recretarv.to Mr, &t.Gorse.City Surveyor, to have plans and particulars regarding the position and title of auch streets as would enable the city to take them over safely.\u2014\u2014< OUTREMONT SCHOOLS.Trotestant Commissioners Undecided About New Building.A meeting of the Protestant Board of School Commissioners for Outremont was held in the school house at that place.lart evening at eight o'clock.Mr.Hart, halrman.presided, and all the commls- sioners were present.\u2018After some routine business the chalr- man reviewed the circumstances in which the buijding they were in was gradually shuffled away to the town, so that at the present time they could be thrown out by force.if the Counell so willed it.This would not be any great loss, however, he said, as the building was worth hardly anything, and with the 82.00 mortgage the commissioners would have to pay did the law courts decide that they owned the bullding.it could not be put under the asset column at all.He further suggested that the site for a new school be chosen right away, so that the building could be commenced at once, enabling It to be ready for work at the beginning of the schuol term, on September 1st.Mr.Richard Denman, in answer to an Invitation of the chatrman for taxpayers outside of the bourd to make remarks, suggested that the present business in the law courts be finished before the board launch out inte any scheme of bullding a new school house.Commissioners Den- man, Ainslie and Waterson sided wlth this view of the case, while the remainder sided with the chairman.After some discussion it was decided to postpone the subject until the next meeting.There was some discussion about whether to appoint a male or female teacher for the coming Beason, and about buying à copy of the first volume of the Code of Public Instruction for each member, but nothing was decided upon and the meeting as adjourned until next Thursday even- ng.ale TWO THOUSAND PILGRIMS.Passed Through the City Last Evening for St.Anne de Beaupre.The raliway companies were kept busy last night handling the two thousand

make myself disagreeable, but 1 need scarcely point out to you that there are circumstances in this case which are, to say the least of it, peculiar.1 may as well tell you that your movements will be under the surveillance of the police; and, should you make any attempt to elude us, we may consider it our duty to place you an safe custody.\u201d \u201cThat's all right, I replied.\u201cLock me up, and hang me, do! It only needs some dit tle trie of that kind to make the situation altogether what it should be.The man 1s a perfect stranger to me, and 1 know no more how he came to lus death than the man in the moon; which things are, possibly, à sutlicient reason why the police shoud make of me one of their pro- verblal examples.\u201d It struck me that the Inspector did not altogether know what to make of me.A) though he did not arrest me, to all intents and purposes be might almost as well have done.Until the inquest took place, the hotel was practically in charge, with everybody in it.A policeman alept on the premisez; other policemen were con- tinuaily about the premises, asking ques tions, and making themselves objectionable, both by day and night.I, myself, n to feel that I had a haunted, hangdog sort of air.As for Mrs.Burmes, 1f she had not a grest crime upon her conscience, it Was not because she did not look it.She seemed to be growmg hourly thinner.1 knew very well that she wae full of a great anxiety to say a word or two lo me in private, but dared not for fear of prying eyes and cars.She solved the difficulty in her own way by pinning & note to my pillow, su that 1 found it on going to bed on the night before the 1inquest.It had neither beginning nor end, and ran something like this\u2014every word was underlined : \u201cSay nothing to-morrow about my husband, for God\u2019s sake! I am quite sure that he had nothing to do with this deed of horror\u2014you know that he had not\u2014 and 1 know! No good purpose will be served by dragging him into it, and so bringing on me greater ruin than has come aiready!\u201d As I read this earcely judicious appeal, told myself that Mrs.nes was certainly wrong in saying that 1 knew that her mysterious husband had had nothing to do with the crime which had been wrought.As a matter of fact.I knew nothing.The more 1 reflected, however, the less 1 liked the look of the circumstances, which seemed to suggest a guilty knowledge on the part of my whilom friend, the waiter.It appeared at least possible that he wus the James Southam who had been actually advertised for, and that he was very well aware Duncan Roth- well had something to say to him which was very distinctly, not to his advantage.Looking at the \u2018violence which, without ! , he had used towards me, was it not conceivable that he might have, and indeed had, used still greater violence towards Mr.Rothwell?Phe inquest was not over in a day, though the only light it threw upon the crime went to prove the identity of the murdered man.A singular state of things the evidence upon thia point revealed\u2014by Bo meuns tending to elucidate the mystery.e dead man actuélly tumed out to be Jonas Hartopp\u2014the head, and, in fact, the sole remaining partner, in the well-known rm of manufacturing jewellers\u2014Harto P and Company.The strange part of the business was, that he seemed to have been Duncan Rothwell as well\u2014that is, he bad assumed that nume, for reasons which were very far from bemg plain.- Martopp and Company were a Birmingham firm\u2014a wealthy one.Jonas Hartopp himself had had the reputation of being as rich as a reasonable wan would care to ncan Hothweil had written to Messrs.Cleaver and Caxton from Liver pool; where he had taken Tooûns, us it wouid seem, for the special purpose of communicating with theme had never occupied the rooms, but had given the most peremptory anstruc- tions that all letters and telegrams shonld at once be forwarded to an address at Aston.The address at Aston turned out to be a tcbacconist\u2019's shop.The tobacro- nist at once recognised the dead man as being the person he had known as Duncan Rothwell.Why the wealthy jeweller, Jonas Hartopp, had chosen to masquerade as Duncan Rothwell, or what was the something to his advantage which he proposed to communicate to James Southam, there was not a shred or tittle cf evidence to show; vor was there a thread of light thrown.upon the shadows which enveloped the mystery of his sudden death.As it chanced, no question was asked me, while I was in the witness box,which gave me an opportunity of bringing in the incident of \"Mrs.Barnes\u2019 husband.I had a sufficiently bad time of it, , without being actuated by a burning desire to involve myeelf in further complications.Never in my life had I been so badgered.They would not accept my plain statement that I had not the faintest notien why James Southam had been advertised for, or who bad advertised for him, or what was the something which he was to learn to his advantage.The coroner and the police, and, for the matter of that, the public, too, aj ta be under the :m- pression that since 1 owned that my name was James Southam, therefore I held the Key of the mystery in the hollow of my hond; or, at any rate, that I ought to.They had raked up the circumstances of my life from my earliest days; they had made al] sorts of inquiries about me in all sorts of directions, yet they could find nothing which could fairly be said to tell against me; and that for the sufficient, BOAT FOR LAND OR WATER.alll BI Cl rown In * The Banker's - .a Stella in \u201d Captain Swift.The invention of Mr.H.M.Welch, of Cowansville, for navigating shallow om\" streams.| The above cut represents a \u2018revolving bottom mboat recent!

and peace it will have soon.But that peace will be even more disastrous to Spain than would be a continuation of the war.There are pow in the kingdom three different parties, one of which is bound to succeed, but that success necessarily mean ruin to Spain.\u201cPhe first and most important factor in Spain's future 1s the Carlist party, entire- antagonistic to the present.dynasty.\u2018the motives of the members of this party appear purely seitish, the success of the pretender, Don Carlos, being their ultimate aim, but they are by far the most werful.Next comes the Weyler party, ollowers of the General, and of his great friend, Romeo Robledo, who would like to in power thewselves; but at the same time are afraid to declare antagonistic to the Government.Third and lust, but pot least, come the Republicans, with Salmeron at their head, all holding Utop- jun view of a free Latin country, whic they will never realize.At the same time they are a menace, as all disquiet and disturbing elements must be.The actual Government does not really count in Spain's affuirs to-day or in her future.It is helpless, vacillating, au the tide goes between the moons of yester-night and today.If peace were to be declared to-mor- row, there would be a triple revolution in Spain, each of the three parties named striving their utmost to attain their ends, but utterly unable to bring order out ot the chaos which would ensue.; \u201cThe Queen Regent is a nonentity in Government affairs, obliged to put her name to decrees whether she approves them or not, and swayed by the flattering tongues of her favorites.The three parties mentioned are desirous of peace, because it will further their ends.They know that as soon as peace is declared a revolution will be precipitated.The humibhating truth cannot Se kept from the Spanish peo le.The leaders of each party.will, to further their own ambitious ends, see that the truth is made clear to them, force upon them a realization of the fact that their country has met with a humiliating defeat.It will be easy to convince them that the defeat and humliation is due to the existing (Government and they will be ready and ripe to espouse another, which, it will be remembered, 18 à question to be solved only by foreign intervention, as 1 have stated, for in such a case all three parties will be relegated to the unimportant and unoffensive position which they should hold.KLONDIKE OUTPUT.Mot Bo Large as Was Predicted , But Sas SOME LUCKY FROSPECTORS WHO HAVE RETURNED WITH FORTUNES.\u2018 DAWSON CITY, July 25, via Beattie, Wash., July 20.\u2014 The output of the mines of the Yukon region this year, while it has reached between 10,000,000 and $15,000,000, has disappointed even the more conservative estimates made last fall and based on the prospec, then existing.One of the most prominent civil engineers on the Pacific Coast, who has spent this winter in the mines, eaid : *\u201cOomsidering the fact that less than 20,000 poorly fed men have gotten out this winter almost $15,000, 000, the Klondike has made a showing that entitles it to consideration as the greatest gravel deposit in existence and the richest in the world.The placer mines of Celifor- nia in early days is its only rival.The great riches of the bench claims on Freuch, Chief, Little aud Big Bkookum gulches cob- tinue to be the wonder of the mining men in the interior of Alaska.These benches are old river beds which have been broken up by an eruption of the earth.À continuation of the nver Led was found near Huwuker Creek, and while but little prospecting has been dune, it is tho t it will turn out very well.Eldorado aùd Bonanza (\u2018reeks have proved all that was expected of them.SOME OF THE LUCKY ONES.Of those who have arrived on the last steamers, probably the most fortunate of the claim owners this year are the Stan- leys of Seattic, and their partner, Charles Warden, of Los Angeles.They hold claims 25 and 26 und half each of 24 and 32 kldo- rado Creek.A portion of their clean-up was 1,400 pounds of gold.It was packed into Dawson from the mines on five horses.John lee took $200,000 from a claim, and he and Andereon bought half of claim No.32 for $150,000, \u201cNigger Jim\u201d Daughtary has disposed of his interests to à London syndicute for $1, 000.The richest clean-up from a single claim is that of N.E.Pickott.Son.e place ijt et $80,000, but this figure is treated with ridicu.e by men who worked un the saine creek.They assert that if Prekott has cleaned up a cent he has taken out of the earth at least $200,000.His claim is El durado No.17.1f five boxes of gold sacked up in the office of the Commercial Hotel are uny evidence, Pickott, who is a Canadian, has certainly been successful.Fred.Berry, brother of Clarence Berry, the \u2018\u201cKlondike King,\u201d brought out certificates of deposit tor a very large amount.He brought a quantity of nuggets in a plain ine box.Berry's clean-up is estimated to he in the hundreds of thousands, but he carefully conceals the exact amount, \u2018Con Von Alstine stands well up in the list, with close on to $100,000.May be Soms Arrests There of Pares pe pe Pa CAROLINE PARWS MOVEMENTS AT MONTMAGNY BEFORE HER ARREST.(Special to the Star.)

three traine a week, and the occasional traveller was met by a single trap to convey him to the village hostelry.Now there are two trains every morning for Montreal, and one returning every evening,

a golden sunset in the mountain ion, the peaked mountain at the head of the lake standing out majestically dividing its brilliant back ground as it dies away in two fiery streams on the lakes\u2019 surface below.Next morning after a well served country breakfast, the order of the day was a drive around the lake where many fine villas and residences owned or rented by Montreal's prominent citizens were passed.On leaving the village the party first drove over the private road through Presque Ile Park, which was -constructed by the Hon.Mr.Nantel, Mr.Raza and Mr.Henry Garth, whose beautiful residences nestle among the roc and trees on the bank of the lake and this road which encloses some four hundred acres is free from dust and very shady.There are many little points around this park that would form ideal spots for a rustic country residence.Across the lake which is narrow at the peint on which Mr.Nantel\u2019s house is sitanted, Hie.Worship the Mayor of Mont- - &

acres, and the \u2014unprz'en- ticus though pretty villa of Mr.\u201cinest Howard which seems to have hid itself with maiden-like modesty from »ul- gar view.The great change that has been wrought in the place ia mainly due to the energy of T.Prefontaine who has developed an excellent electric plant with power house, driven by water some mile or so from the C.P.R.station, and an in- exhanstable supply of crystal water brought in by gravitation from a nei boring lake.nother lance that it ents to the city of Montreal, is that no attempt to water the streets is made, and the dust from the Saraha-like sand is something to be dreaded.But there in another inconvenience of an almost more serious hature, though of political, not natural origin.For the space of nineteen years Mr.Forget, who has a very handsome brick store, held to the satisfaction of every one, the position of post master, but the Gor ernment made a change although a large petition was forward against the principle that the postal service was.for the enefit of the politician and not for the public.Now the mail delivery is so mized up that business men will be forced to find another place for summer recreation, the telegraph being costly.Owing to there not being a vi Inge office, cue gentleman remarked that it had cost him nearly three dollars additional for transmitting his telegrams to and from the station in

Will be Procured From the Dealers.in the Combine.MARKET OLERK APPOINTHD He Will Replace Mr.Metras, the Missing Olerk at the East End.Abattoir Cattle Market The Market Committee held a long meeting to-day, most of the time bemg taken up with a discussion of the tenders for coal.Exactly ninety-nine tons of hard cual are required for heating purposes in the var- ous city markets, and twenty-seven tenders were received.Twenty-six of the tenderers, the combine men, quote $8.10 for stove coal and $5.85 for egg.The one fone uon-combine dealer, Charles Charland, quoted $5.85 for stove coal, but did not quote for egg.Ala.W ilson,who 18 a dealer of wood and coal himself said that Mr.Charland stood in about the same position as Mr.Belling- ham has stood for the past two years.He bought bis coul from New York parties who had kept it stored in that city for a more or less lengthy time, the coal being likely to depreciate n value.The combine suld nothing but the coal, and the committeee would find itself ahead if it bought combine cual, even if it paid a little more for it.There was only a \u2018few cents difference in the price anyway.Ald.Gallery inted out that by the acceptance of the lower tender the city would save fifteen dollars.Id.Wilson said that the amount was not worth considering, when the difference in the quality of the coal was con- side He suggested that the contract be divided among the tenderers at the combine prices at the discretion of the members of the committee.Ald.Lareau said that by adopting that course the committee would certainly encourage the whole trade, while by accepting Mr.Charland's tender, oniy ove merchant would be benefitted.It would be much better to give a little encouragement to everybody.Ald.Gaguon said that if Ald.Lareau\u2019s idea was carried out there would be no use advertising for tenders.It was the duty of the committeee, he considered, to give the contract to the lowest.tenderer.Mr.Charland was a perfsetly responsible and solvent man, and he could safely be depended upon to give thoroughly conl and quite up to specification.Ev \"body knew that the combine prices were higher than non-combine ones.That was alt there was in it.Al.Gallery reminded the members that the Road Committee had awarded a large contract for lumber to the lowest tenderer, and as n resuit the whole of the lumber, though badly wanted, bad not been deliver ed yet.As A result the committee bad had to run about to get its supply.end the lumber bad cost far snore than if the second or third lowest tenders had been a'cepted.A any rate they should remem er that there was only one man tendering below the combine price.Ald.on said that that showed that he was a man with plenty cf good will and energy.He was prepared to give every guar antee 88 to the due fulfilment of the contract.Ald.Wileon said that in past years the committee bad ignored the lowest tender, why should not the committee in the present case do likewise.If they had been satisfied with the quality of the coal wu lied in the past y make a change ?He id not think that the committee shou d consider Mr.Charland's tender at all, be cause be did not tender for egg coal at Ald.Lareau thought that Mr.Charland might be given a contract for a few tons, and if it turned out all right.be might receive the whole contract next year.Ald.Gagnon moved that the contract for stove coal be awarded to Mr.Charland and the contract for maple to the Wilsm Company, the lowest tenderers.° Alderman Gagnon alone voted for his motion, and Aldermen Wilson, Lareau.snd Gallery against.On motion of Ald.Lareau, it was decii- ed to give the contract for twenty tons of stove coal to Mr.Charland, and the en- tract for maple to the Wilson Company, the balance of the contract for coal to be divided among seven of the tenderers selected by members.of the committee.A letter was read from Chief Detective Carpenter, stating that he had heen unab'e ty locate Mr.Metras, the missing clerk of

| | | | 1 } | A | OAKLAND, Cal., July 20.\u2014 Rather than surrender himeelf to the officers of the law who were seeking to arrest him on a charge of murder, Goon.Ny Chung, a Chinaman, blew up the works of the Western Fuse and Explosive Company here and killed five deputy sheriffs and constables, who were trying to arrest him, as well as a woman.The dead are: Deputy Sherifi Charles White, son of Sherif White; George Woodsum, D.C.Cameron, Constable Gus.Koch, J.Leary, Mrs.Hill, Goon Ng Chung.The Chinaman had fortified himself in the magazine and blew it up, hen the attempt to arrest him was mad The Celestial had killed a fe'low-country- man in a quarrel over a Chinese lottery ticket.He then defied the officers of the law who went to arrest him.The murderer fled into the magazine, which contained five tons of giant powder, barricaded himself and threatened to blow up the magazine if any one caine to arrest Lim.Deputy Shenff Charles White, son of Sheriff White, in charge of a posse, was on the scene of the shooting shortly after the murder and kept guard over the Chinaman within his stronghold.All the officers were armed with rifles.After repeated demands to surrender had been mada, to all ot which the same reply came: \u2018\u2018It you come in here I will blow up the magazine,\" the officers retired for the n'ght.Yesterday morning, at 5 o'clock, Deputy i Sheriff White, after a consultation with the others, decided to break down the barricade not believing the Chinaman would fulfil his threat.Accordingly, the entire posse headed for the door.\u2018ITue to his word the Chinaman fired the grant powder, and in an instant a terrific losion occurred, killing the five officers ind blowing the Chinaman to atorns, sa Stnall that but Oue piece has been found, White's hody was fearfully mangled.Tt was found nearly 500 yards away.Mrs.Hill was visiting a Mrs.Pride, who lived across the way.She was killed in the falling debris.All the buildings took fire nes were soon fighting the flames, but to ro avail.The works are completely wrecked.Four houses aso are blown down and about forty partially wrecked.Denuty Sheriff Fred Sheri!

VANCOUVER, B.C.Julv %\u2014The poil- Ucal situation in British Columbia \u2018@ ex- traordinartly complicated, and likely Bo to remain for many days.Of thirty-eigi « seats In the Legislature the Opposttiva have secured nineteen and the Government seventeen, including one waverer, Ar.Henderson, of New Westminster, who was returned as an Independent Government supporter, and who was backed by the local Government organ, but is, nevertheless, now clalmed as a probable Oprosl- tion supporter.Two seats yet remulin ta be filled in the course of about three weeks, in Cassiar.One, if not both of these, the Turner Government should secure, having strong candidates in Capt.John Irving, the former representative when Casslar was a single member c~n- stituency, and a well-known local rem- dent named C.W.D.Clifford.The Prs- vinclal Government is spending much money in Cassiar just now on road construction, which should also tell locally in favor of its candidates, and the Oppost- tion has not yet chosen its standard- bearers for a fight a outrance.But in any case the Government «în only have nineteen members in a house of thirty- eight.The probability is that the Turner Goy- ernment.not having againat it an absu- lutely decisive majority, will, unless Lieut.Governor McInnes should intervene ond call on the Opposition to form a Ministry, meet the l.egisiuture next session\u2014early In 1888\u2014and await the issue of a motion of want of confidence.A strong coalition Ministry would be undoubtedly the best thing for British Columbia, were the most trusty leaders of each party chosen.Feeling runs se high, however, that this would seem to be impossible.Several election protests will meanwhile be filed.These may turn the scale in one direction or the other.The Turner Government will make a specially strenuous effort to prevent the attainment of the provincial Premiership by Mr.Joseph Martin, the well-known ex- Manitoba potitictan, who is by no means popular fn British Columbia generally, but is believed to have a good chance of obtaining the leadership of the present Up- position party.Mr.Bostock, M:P, practically secured Mr, Martin's endorsemont by the Opposition party.DROWNED IN THE KLONDIKE.(Special to the Star.)
