his every effort was devoted to his faithful helpmeet.During the same two monthe, Mr.Tarte,\"bowed with grief over the knowledge that his wife could rot recover, haa been mercilessly Jamponed, caricatured.riticulsé and abused by Literai papers.including those of this city.\u2018The day before his wife's ¢ ath the following \u2018\u2018witticism\u2019 appeared in a Lib- era) journal.\u201cOH, WHAT IS s0 rare as a day in June?asks the poet.That's easy.News of the whereabouts of the Tarte loom.\" And again.on the day cf his wife's fecease, when It was publicly known the patient was at the point of death: \u201cA GROUP PICTURE of Bordan, \u201cDundonald and Tarte on the Con.3 campaign buttons now seems to be In der.\u201d I cry \u201cShame!\u201d on such methods and their authors.They do not argue for either the power or respectability of the Liberal press of Canada.Rather do they betray a cynical disregard of the decencles of life altogether dis- E: ting.Again I cry \u2018Shame!*\u201d COMMON DECENCY.(Montreal) Canada Collision Investigation.The inquiry Into the collision between the Richelieu and Ontario Navigation Company's 8S.Canada and the Cape Breton, will take place Thursday of next week.A letter has been received from Commander Spain stating that the investigation is set for the Cape Breton's ar¥ival.The vessel will here on Wedneaday next, and the ine vestigation will commence on the following day.Leading Riflemen Endorse Sub-Target Cos Qun Machine.St John, N.B., June 2 \u2014Notwith- etanding the disagreeable state of the weather yesterday, a large number of military men, as well as men Interested In gun clubs, Visited \u2018Une drill shed and witnessed an ihtéresting demonstration of the sudb-target gun machine.Lieut.-Col.Hurdman and F.W.Pearce explained the working of the machine, and it soon became evident to those who tested their marksmanship that the Invention was one that would materially assist them in correcting errors of sight or other faults in firing.Practically all the visitors tried both the rite and revolver machine to their satisfaction.When some of St.John's crack shots were spoken to they ex- piessed their opinion that the machine vas a wonderful invention.-In modern warfare, where the rifle played such an important part they sald the recruit could be drilled in a very short time by its aid to aim, and hold the rifle, as well an to train the eye.Having mastered that much, the recruit would easily adapt himself to outside shooting.to the study of the variations caused by the atmosphere.Hght and wind.It seemed to be the opinion of these men who examined the machine that for the first training of the novice in rifle shooting, it rurpassed their expectations.The bunching of shots either side of (he bull could be easily over come when the recruit was under Irs structions, as the errors were more easily detected When at the bu'ts.Many of the men thought that if the different - corps throughout Canada were supphed with a machine It would be the means of making rifie shooting more popular than at ent\u201d Col.Hurdman decided to remain vnother day \u2018in &t.John ro.AB to-Etve more of the miiltls a chance - tp examine the madhine, | © SES 5% : à + Madame Lantothà: of ;

nnd his service record since has ample \u201cJustified it.He Js the author of several brochures of standard quality u finance, one of which, read before the British Association for the Advande- ment of Science at its meeting in Toronto in 1897, attragted wide atu In recognition of his attalnmeni public service Mr.McDougall was in the same year created a Compa the Order of St.Michael and.George.Mr.McDougal was bort Renfrew, on November 6, 1338, : succeeded his father in the fa ing business on the death of thé lattér.He was a member of the first Ofi¥ario Lgislature after Confederation, and sat in that Legislature till 1871.Returned to the Mouse of Commons ag a Liberal for South Renfrew, in 1869, he was defeated lg 1872, but was, again elected in 1924, And held his seat till his appolutment to his present post., In a ske.ch of Mr.McDougall : in January of last year.the Globe, ie- ferring to Mr.McDougall's efficiency as an offices of Government, said: \u201cMr.McDougall discharges his dutles with unfailing impartiality.no matter whether as Liberal or Conservitive Administration happens to be in office.He ig very outspoken in his criticising of etpenditures that he deems to be irre;,ular, and displays great energy and ability in maintaining his posi- tioit.\u201d AR ' ~ FOUGHT POLAR BEAR.( Thrilling Experience of Two Quebec- ers on Belle isle.Quebec, Que., June 23-Commodore J.U.Gregory.agent for the Department of Marine and Fisheries in this city, was notified by telephone Yesterday afternéon of a thrilling incident that occurred at Belle Isle.J.Ryan.ana another man named Poitras, of \"Quebec, wha: were engaged in hiding ie néw HEHthoue es the east end of the £ were dy an enormous 5 beat.4 conflict ensued, lastig Yor TURÿ a between the two min npitt thé.white quadruped, which fortunately tul- minated In the bftite being killed.It la belteved that the bear got adrift don filoat- ing ice.which Je LY d was carried froen * EE Belle Isle.and Hon.Charles Fitzpatrick on Mr.;

sent at the picnic of St Finnan's parish tu be held to-day.A telegram was forwarded to him inviting him and Lady Elizabeth Cochrane, his sister, to | honour the gathering with their presence, and stating that Bishop Mac- dcnell would have word sent to all the Catholic churches throughout the county so thal the people could turn out en masse to welcome them and to do honour to one whom whey d learned to love and admire as the Géneral Orfi- cer who lately commanded the Canadian militia.But Lord Dundonald was obliged to answer as follows: \u201cPlease give my heartiest thanks to Bishop Macdonell and the priests and committee of the Scottish Catholic ple- nie, and say how deeply I regret not to be with them on Wednesday, but engagements prevent my doing so.\u201cDUNDONALD.\u201d It had been arranged, if Lord Dun- denald intimated it would be possible for him to attend, that the committee skould proceed in a body to Ottawa to extend to him a formal invitation and to assure him of the magnitude and cordiallty of would be accorded to him.He had a great reception here last year, but it would have been sunk into insignificance in comparison with the demonstration with which he \u201cwould now have been greeted by the loval-heart- .ed people of Glengarry with whom ! \u201cblood is thicker than water,\u201d who honour him now even more than previously if that, indeed, be possible.He had declared that the day he spent here last autumn was the happiest he had had in Canada.but fit seems now ta the people's deepest sorrow that it is fated to be not merely the first, but also the last.On all hands whenever his name Is mentioned.one hears, \u201c We will never see his like again.\u201d DUNDONALD DENIES RIDICULOUS STORY.Special to The Montreal Star.-_ Toronto, June 22\u2014Major-General, the \u2018Eart \u2018of Dundonald, left the city for, Ottawa at 10 o'clock last night.His Lordship was accompanied by Captain Newton, A.D.C., and his private secretary.-A considerable number of citizens gathered on the platform, among them a-deputation representing the old soldiers of the city.Lord Dundonald said to a reporter before he left that he has no definite plans formed as to his future movements, and could not say whether he would be back in Toronto before he left Canada.He expressed appreciation for the sympathy extended to him from all quarters, quite - independently of politics.military interest or social rank The ex- | traordinary unanimity on this score he considered a genuine tribute to the in- depéüdence of his action taken solely in the interests of Canada and in fulfillment of the duty to which he was appointed.Lord Dundonald was not disposed to discuss the situation prior to further debate in Paarliament, but when asked as to the story circulated by Government organs to the effect that he wished to have a line of forts along the Canadian frontier he, after a pause, remarked; \u2018Just say it is nonsense.\u2019 There is a movement among prominent and representative citizens to organize a testimonial of some kind to Lord Dundonald.It 18 probable that a banquet and reception may be the result.Nothing definite will be settled until Parliament has disposed of the question of his dismissal.The Dopaldson line §S.Alcides, with a general cargo from Glasgow, is due to arrive here at 2.20 this afternoon.Genuine \u2026_ __\u2026 Carter\u2019s Littie Liver Pills Must Bear Signature of SEE FACSIMILE, WRAPPER BELOW, : ment last night the reception that \u2018 street.| clety, and Mr.Honore Gervals, K.C., M.P., made addresses.DIFFICULTY OVER TREATY: MAKING An Agreement With Germany Blocked by.Government.REASON FOR THE BLOCKADE Ottawa Authorities.Cannot Porsuade Britain to Allow Them to © Negotiate Alone.pecial Cable from Our London Correspondent.London, Juñe 22.\u2014The question of treaty making powers is evidently causing difficulty between the Cana- A diplomatic authority states to-day that the Canadian dian and British Governments.tariff questfon is still open between Canada and Germahy, but that is so through no faujt of Germany, as she has conceded all agk- ed for by Mr.Chamberlain, ngmely, Canada\u2019s right to an Independent fiscal attitude, The only reason why a treaty bas not been concluded is that the Ottawa Government cannot persuade the British Government to leave the negotiation of the treaty epclusively in Can- ada's hands WINDERMERE.FRATERNAL ENTERTAINMENT.\u2014 Cercle St.Louis of L'Union St.Pierre, à fraternal association, held an entertaine at Brault Hall, Berri Addresses, recitations, music, both vocal and instrumental, as well as a light comedy, \u201cThe Charlatan.\u2019\u201d Mr.Oscar Lavallee, general president of the so- BEECHNUT BACON Is a P.E.I.product that commands a large sale in Great Britain.Connoisseurs admit that there is none other in Canada as good.THE DOMINION PACKING CO., LTD., CHARLOTTETOWN.Sh N ac - And what do you think 4\u201d makes me so happy and contented ?À clear conscience, a good digestion, and above allan IRVING CIGAR.- 148 2 law PL LS: 1K GET THE HASIT-SMORE =\" |-#.I = Irving | AND SAVE THE BANDS.Rightly Made Shirts.J.HIRSCH, SONS & CO, Makers - Mostreel.Skilled workmanship can produce no better shirts than ours.Made in our own work rooms, every stitch of the Hannan Shirts is carefully supervised.Cut to fit and made to wear, they give that degree of comfort and show those lasting qualities which give the) arers the satisfied feeling that they have ull money\u2019s worth.s in all the fashionable fa- Éclusive patte! 0 brics\u2014Madras, Zephyrs, Cambrics and Oxfords\u2014 figures, stripes and dots, 7Sc, 85c, 9Sc, $1.00 and $1.25.Cuffs attached or detached, hard or soft fronts.A HANNAN Shirt is guaranteed \u201c Shirt King Edward drank .WHITE ROCK at the \"Lord Mayor's banquet Satisfaction.\u201d Sold only at \u2018 THE HANNAN STORE, 213-215 St.James Street.\u2018and tists.COVERNTON'S CARBOLIC TOOTH Highly recommended by the leading den- WASH.Be sure you get COVERNTON'S, Yor sale by druggists.136 t£ \u201cMY VALET\u201d For French Cleaalng, Dyeing, Repair- fox and Pressing.Suits or Overcoats Pressed .B0e Sults or Overcoata French Cleaned, 8150 $1.00 a month keeps clothes in order.73 BEAVER HALL, HILL, Phone East 514.Cat.Dorchester.1 + [ Ringheim-Schlichten Ramie Fibre HEALTH UNDERWEAR Is Mest Benefielal to Health.Every atom of food consumed, every particle of ai inhaled, must, after a comple circulation, disappear from the organism The skin, through its millions of pores, has the largest share in the excretion of waste matter.Obstructed perspiration + ig.therefore, the same as poison- mE\u201d the body.*°% © Ramie Underwear does not obstruct perspiration.but facilitates it.None other like it, Ask for free booklet.Te be had only at.The Hannan Store, \\ 313-213 ST.JAMES STREET.2 DO You KNOW Suspenders are made with a \u201c Ball Bearing Back Xlnimizes friction : refnces rtraîn ;

The opening of the new building of the Montreal Stock Exchange offers a4 gould opportunity of looking back into the past yeurs, and giving a short sketch of the formation of the oid Board of Brokers, from which both the Montreal Corn Exchange and the Montreal stock Exchange einanated, The writer of these lines became a member of the old beard in 1858, or about that time; a8 a young broker he associated with those who had origin- aliy formed the bourd and carried it on from its meeption in 1844-30, to the year ruentioned.The brokers were called together by some of those who engaged in brokerage or commission busiress, for the purpose of preparing n weekly report of market values in stocks, debentures, money outside regular bank rates, and produce of all descriptions.The names of these gentlemen have been carefully traced back through all available records.and it $s well established that most of them had previously been engaged In mercantile pursuits as general or special tmporters of foreign goods.The trade of the country passed largely through their hands, as they furnished wholesale Imported supplies to country dealers, who usually forwarded all kinds of produce, by buat during the season of open navigation, and by sleigh during the long winter months; thus, flour, grin of ail kinds.pot and pearl ashes, etc.etc., were consigned in larger or smalier quantities to the merchants, that they might realize upon then, and apply the proceeds on \u2018account of imported goods =upplied.As these shipments or consignments Increased in quantity.men who were qualified to handle them separately became necessary.and several of the general merchants came Into existence as commission agents.Or ar produce and bill brokers.The earliest mention of any name afterwards known op the Roard of Brokers occurs in Madkay's directory published by John Lotell in 1842, NN 1842 TO 1547 which known in later the Names ently were promin- same call- tng, appedred Ether as mérchants or simply as private citizens without any business classification.Some names entered on the board when ft wus formed had not yet become known through the directory.In the directory for 1843-44, the firs: prndure and bill broker Is noticed.he ing D.L.MacDougall.who was afte:- wards named as the first chairman, while J.G.Dinning.of the firm of Din- ring.& Senlor.commission.merchants.who had already\u2019 been noted in the former directory continued in the sam: rm.In the directory of 1844-5 the firm o: MacDougall & Glass is announced.ar well as that of Dinning & Senior.Bu nene of the other original members o° the bourd.most of whom were stil} general merchants.In the following issue of the same directory.Thomaa M.Taylor is announced as produre and bill broker\u2014belng the only addi- ticnal name-but in the next edition tegued in 1R47-R «a lapse of two years having occurred).there is a list of seven names under the heading of gen- «ral brokers.1847 AND 1848.The mode of business in those days.especially in transactions which required prompt conrlusion.was to em- pioy a broker to hunt up buyers; or scliers, and men who were in the business kept lists of all merchants or capitalists who might prove amenable to a deul, be it large or small.The term Rill Broker had reference to bilis o! exchange, which were frequently placed by brokers.also to discounts, which were handled considerably at tha dates named.and for some subse.guent years.Any one who can recall those times will refhember that the principal banks rent out cards containing a calendar for the New Year.These cards had generally a printed list of directors with the legend attached \u201cDiscount days, Mondays and Thursdays,\u201d or \u201cTuesdays and Fridays.\u201d ete.Mercantile and other firms, when dealing in stocks or produce, not unfre- quently required considerable amounts In excess ôf their regular Iiné of bank discounts for such purposes, And these were procured in many cases by brokers.Rates for temporary loans were | sometimes pretty stiff.One Instance may be given when one of the shrewdest brokers.in the town was Instructed to pay a quarter per cent.fot the Iran of an anmqguestionable cheque for an hour.: Bonds and debentures nf the Government, municipal or harbeur variety.were.usually placed among the moneyed institutions or wealthy residents of the town by brokers.who alse scld considergble.amounts of such favourite ecyfitien to English correspondents.11 \"this meant a very rétive day's work for the broker, who had to get round the town.and even to the private residences of wealthy men ving at a distance, as best he might, there being no such conveni- eres as street cars or telephones.1848 TO 1858, In the years 1848-9 the list of general brokers had increased from seven to thirteen; but among the latter only seven names occur.which in the fol- towing year formed the \u2018Board of Brokers,\u201d as far as can be ascertained, from avallable records.It was probably during the years 1848-3 that business began to demand some authenticated quotations for val- ueg generally.There was much discussion ong the leading brokers, An thË following issue of Macy°3 directory, 1849-50, the first record,.which has been found (in so far as author of these lines is concern- 84, tie names of the Board are given: .Beard of Stock and Produce Brokers: MacDougall Bros.,, John Glass, F.& TR.Esdaile, Augustus Heward, Charles Geddes, T.M.Taylor, R D.Collte, T.Bethune, Jr, H.IL.MacDoug- Rll, secretary, a2 St.Francois Xavier st.In this connection, it is worthy of note that at a meeting of the Council of the Board of Trade.held accord- {ng to the minute book of that body on ~ 16t April, 1850, the following extract appears: \u201cAt this meeting \u2018meetings on change\u2019 were discussed, and Messrs.H.Allan and DL.MacDougall were appointed a committee to provide a suitablé place for the same\u2019\u201d\u2014It ls more than likely that the success attending the organization of the brokers suggested the desirability of establishing a place for merchants to congregate.In point of fact, it had been customary for merchants and speculators who wished to run across each other's path to resort to Place Royal, commonly called *Custom House Square.\u201d and on that spot many deals were made.It has already been stated that the purpose of the weekly meeting of brokers was the preparation of a circular, but there was absolutely no dealing.Members reported actual transactlons during the past week, and a comparison of prices established values\u2019 which were embodied in the circular for distribution among members, who furnished them to their clients: there were also a considerable number sold for transmission abroad, the latter word applying chiefly ta London.Liverpool and Glazzow.This report was also supplied to the press, who paîd for lt and furnished a certain number of circulars tree of charge.The profits were divided every year among thé memhers In cash, or carried fo : account of those who, on joinmg.bad \"lected to pay up thelr admission fee in that manner.The fee was (L100), one hundred poupds currency.50 1849 TO 1863.OT The rame names of Brokers appeat year by year, ue 1 1858-9, when some younger rhembers were received, \u2018but only in small numbers until after the separation of Stock and Praduce interests was decided upon in 1861-2, In the latter year, the Tom ¥x- change Assoclation~was inaygurated and opened for business on 20th October.) Members of the Board of Stock Brokers who wished to continue Ti the Produce business procured tables for: their samples in the Hall of the Corn Exchange Building (then situated in Exchange Court).and all members of the old Board.had admigsion to the weekly meetings.still held for estab- Hshing quotations of stocks and securities by the Board of Stock Brokers.1862 TO\u2019 1874., From tie year 1862 to that of 1868 the membership of the \u2018atter institution did not increase rapidly, and although dally meetings were introduced and dealings took place, the attendance was small, the actual number of brokers being only fifteen (15).But, in 1869, there was a marked change, and business became very active.In 1872, the name of the Association was changed, and it became the \u2018Montreal Stock Exchange.\u201d New officers were elected, two dally meetings held and dealings grew apace into transactions of magnitude.The membership increased to (27) twenty-seven.Many young men left thelr bank situations ond became brokers.rome to make fortunes, some to seek misfortune, but all to enter upon a life of excitement largely tinged with disquietude.FROM 1874.The ups and downs of a speculative lite were indulged in with profit to the few and heavy loss to the many._ It \u2018hoon became apparent that for general safety the Association must be Incorporated, and hold a legal status: accordingly.the Act was ap- \u2018plied for in 1874, since which date the St x hag been a legally recogiised ods, The number of seata had for some years been limited to 40, and the popular joke on the Street was to call them the \u2018\u2018forty thieves.\u201d They would not increase that number for many years, so the \u2018outside pub- He,\u201d as it is called, held on to their pet name.SOME PET NAMES.While on the subject of pet names, an allusion to the old board would scarcely be complete without reference to some of those applied to certain members.There was \"Old Joe,\u201d irreverently sc styled becanse he came down to business daily in the antl- quated high stock and collar, wearing the blue dresg coat and bright buttons in mode among the young bloods of his palmy days.He was of the real old school, polite and polizhed in his manner, as had been the custom in his time.There was \u2018old Telegraph.\u201d an old gentleman of somewhere about the same perlod.who derived his name from a superabundant buoyancy of spirit which he took out of himself by the pace he put on about the streets.There was also \u201cDaddy.\u201d -a genial, good-hearted soul, always ready with a funny story\u2014he was reckless to a degree about the fashion of his attire, but scrupulously neat and clean, notwithstanding the fact that his poor nose was continually shedding tears from an awful quantity of snuff frequently shovelled into the nostrils\u2014and lapped up by a well sized bandana kerchief.There was Buffalo Bill Uke- wise, who carried the head and beard of a wild Highiander: he had made his pile when Montreal Bank ran up into the proximity of 300.A hearty laugh went the rounds among an audience at a real estate sale where \u201cBuffalo Bill\" made a bid one day.The auctioneer in his facetiously funny way accepted ît and remarked, \u201cGood for you, «ir: I likes your style and I likes your coi- our.\u201d Needless to say that chaff never left poor Bili.Then there was \u201cThe Boss,\u201d who got his name from a habit he had of but- ton-holing a man and cramming his particular opinion on any or every subject down his victims' throats \u2018\u2019nolens volens.\u201d TIME OF DEPRESSION.The tremendous depression which followed upon the period of the highest figures reacifed by bank stocks and the fearful shrinkage in values from the highest to the lowest are recalled, contrasting the gaiety which reigned with- In the purlleus of our local Wall street during the fat days with the distressed countenances and bowed heads of both clients and brokers as the decline in prices continued during that period of heavy losses.It will be remembered that one of the consequences of that time of financial orgy was the passing of a law making the selling short of bank stocks a penal offence.Opinion on such matters differed widely, Bankers were at that time loudly denouncing brokers and blaming them for the shrinkage, while brokers maintained that the poor statements coming before the public warranted any amount of short selling at the prices prevalent between the two extremes, and especially when the recession first began.It will be within the memory of many business men how the annual statements of the banks one year after another showed worse and worse, dividends were reduced, prices shrank, and deposits were withdrawn until one used to come to town every morning expectine to hear that one or two banks had closed their doors.Happily those days are gone, and the sufferings thev entaijed have In many cases gone also.They left a lesson which In these dags might prove a profitable 0 e to those who are now so keenly competing for new bank business, FORMER PRESIDENTS.lt might be interesting to recall the names of former presidents.- In the arst organization the only officer mentioned was the secretary.and it is doubtful If any member was really elected chairman until 1854.when.D.L.Maé¢Dousall appears and is continued in all following advertisements in the same position until 1364, when Charles Geddes was elected and remained uptil 1871.In 1812 the election again fell upon D.L.MacDougall, who served another term, to be followed by James Butnett, the .Exchange became ed.and he filled the office ac- ceptabl> until he was called to join the great majority.Those, who have since occupied the chair are still to the

moreover, there are many still Jiving much more competent te deal with modern modes and methods of brokerage business now conducted with sno many improvements upon the primitive days.THE NEW BUILDING.A glance in upon the sumptuous ar- rangéments of the new building, opened for business for the first time this morning.while it did not fall to excite great admiration recalled to the verit- ar's memory very vividly the primitive times when brokers carried their lists of securities \u201cwanted\u201d or \u201cfor sale\u201d in their memorandum book, also thelr samples of grain and flour in their hands from one quarter to another in search of a deal without any of the accessaries or conveniences now considered indespensable.In the old days.when a man wanted to find his purchaser.he might in winter time don a pair of snowshoes as the easlest and most expeditious plan of reaching the private residence of his client, after an old fashioned snowfall.In any case.his surest chance of a deal was to hunt up his man and complete the transaction.At that time, clients sat comfortably at home, or in their offices and received the visit of brokers.Ndw the buver or seller finds it to his advantage to haunt the street.and govern himself] by the dally reports.OTHER TIMES, OTHER MANNERS.\u201cTempora mutantur.et nos mutamur in {111s*\u2014such will be the thoughts of many who enter the

:he Government, comes naturally from the geographical position and the formation of the land at this point.The ground at the base of the slope is peculiarly suited for the site of elevators to transfer grain from the railways te the vessels, which export it.With the development of transportation, attendant on the building of the Quebec bridge, the value of this property must Increase.The approaches to the bridge are now under construction and will fross this property.Next year it is\u2019 expected that the Levis County Rallway (elee- tric).will be completed to the east line of the property.Upon the completion of the bridge, all the railways now stopping on the south side of the St Lawrence, will enter Quebec across this land, and most of those now entering Quebec will probably cross for eastern ahd southern business.The Grand Trunk Pacific, as projected, must cross this land also, and will afford transcontinental facilities.There will be an electric road from Quebec to the \u201cLime Juice for Mo.\u201d \u201cTell you what, there's nothing like Lime Juice when you're sizzling.A tall cold one o Sovereign Lime Juice with the ice tinkling against the glass, and a straw to

lie within 200 feet of this property at low water mark without one dollar's worth of improvement being made in the way of wharves.\u2018Therefore docks can be constructed cheaply.River and lake steamers and sthooners can meet ocean boats at the same docks on this property.This gives a fresh water navigation, ranging from the mouth of the St.Lawrence to the heads of the Great Lakes with all the branches, canals, ANXIOUS WOMEN Women threatensd with\" or suffering from jrregularities and wishing prompt and painless relief should write for FREE BOPK which Lette how to prevent and Votreod

Correspondent Who Was Taken for a Spy.CONDITIONS WHICH PREVAIL Garrison is Large and There is No Distress\u2014Rumours of Great Battle.Indianapolis.Ind.June 22.\u2014 The Hector Fuller, who fected an entrance into Port Arthur.where he was nprisoned five days ve- fore he was ordered from the fortress, a special cablegram, duted Che Foo, June 21.in which Fuller gave his experiences, is as follows: \u2014 \u201cAfter being rowed acrnss from tne hills.The bay was occupied by a Russian fleet of four torpedo bouts, two deztroyers and (Wo cruisers, 1 landed at daybreak on the mourning of June 10

proceeded far from the village when I came upon a small party of sappers.In order to avoid them.I made a dash up i hill only to run Into another regiment, engaged in digging entrench ments.Instantly I was surrounded There was no possibility of escape.The officers in command detailed a guard to take me to Pigeon Bay.There 1 was searched.1 was stripped to the skin, and all my garments were subjected to the closest scrutiny.My money was taken.and all the papers in my possession were examined.Thereupon I was hlindfolded and marched to Port Arthur.The route taken was over the military road, which has recently been constructed.In spite of the bandage over my eyes I was able to note that the road is of admirable construction.along which troops and artillery could move.easily and rapidly.\u201cPort Arthur was full of life and £aiety, quite out of keeping with the stories of distress that had reached Che Foo: indeed.nothing of this sort was ohserved, there seemed to be an abundance of supplies, and fresh supplies were coming in from Chinese sources.The Japanese blockade has not been effective.The harbour entrance has been freed from obstructions.the battleships have been repainted, and the fortifications are constantly being made stronger.The garrison is larger than outside information has led me to believe, The troops are in excellent condition, and the general health conditions of the city are good.There seemed to be no fear that the city was Itkely soon to fall., \u201cThe night T was marched into Port Arthur under guard.the city was unusually lively.as the officers were giv- Ing a ball.Three soldiers were detalled to examine me and they made thorough work of it.After the examination was completed I was lodged in prison.The prison is directly opposite Golden Hill.and from the window of my cell I had a good view of the inner bay and could see distinctly the repaired battleships lying at anchor.\u2018In the same prison were confined 1 100 Japanese who had been captured from the blockading expedition, Several of these had become insane.I, myself.was kept on Russian black bread and water for two days.Then I was permitted by the authori-

trip.At last he was convinced of my good faith.ta said: \u201cYou Americans must be crazy.\u2019 As the result of this hearing of uiy case General Stoessel decided that 1 was to be allowed to leave Port Arthur on condition that I promised neve er to return.The promise was prompts iy forthcoming.\u201cThereupon I was again bHnfolded taken back under guard by the * direct route io Louisa

focused upon the rumcured bat- tie at Hal-cheng.Monday, but the facts are still impossible to learn: A St.Petersburg despatch describes it as the bloodiest battle yet fought.The HKus- sians are sald

disae- ters seem ta have hred numerous scaremongers in St.Petersburg, who, in the absence of definite news, launch wild stories unchecked.There seems.however.little reason to doubt that there has been further severe fighting, though the result is only conjectur- able.The rumoured capture of Liae- Yang is discredited here.An examine ation of the map, in connection with the recent official dspatches,
