The Transvaal Ex-President Has Been in Europe Many Months Without Making Any Headway. NEW YORK, September .1.\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDThe London correspondent of the New York Tribune sends the following dispatch: The movements and relations of the royal figures on the European stage made up the whole,of the news of midnight. It is reported from Copenhagen that the czar and kins Edward will not meet at Fredensburg, as has been previously announced. If this rumor be con- lirmed, it will not be proof tliat anything has gone amiss, but merely that it has been inconvenient to shorten the king's stay at .Horn burg. The czar, while on good terms with the king and German emperor, must consider the bearings of the dual alliance, and give pref- , erence to France in ceremonial visits. Ho is not likely to single out \"England, ior a deliberate alfront, and there is no evidence thai he intends to-do so. The Russian press is more hostile to Germany than to England, and this is an indication that tne German emperor rather than Edward VI1 would be slighted if the czar were looking for an opportunity to discriminate against oiirier power. The kings desire to derive all possible benefit from the waters at Ilombiirg will be a natural explanation 'ir' the two sovereigns do not meet at Frcdensberg. The kowtow hitch over prince Chun's mission is explained as due to \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD royal > sensitiveness, Prince Chun is indifferent \"to the feelings of subo:u;nates,'and considers it beneath the dignity of a Chinese prince to kowtow himself. This is ti subtle appeal to the German emperor's ' sense of royal privilege, and may result in a special dispensation relieving prince Chun from the humiliating function of prostrating himself:-anil 'genuflection, and arranging,a suitable substitute. Tho original tragedy of the Pekin embassies plays down to the level of comic opera * n the due'course of time. Topsy turvydom is still the word that describes South Africa. While general French has been driving the guerillas to ' ' the north of the Orange river, Scheep- cr's commando seems to have bolted in tho opposite direction, and to have got within striking distance of the coast of Cape Colony, 100 miles east of Capetown. Scheeper is one of the youngest Boer commanders and may be mische- vious enough to tumble into Capetown at the moment when French is arranging for entrapping him in the southeast corner of the Orange River Colony. Military men arc debating solemnly tho chances of a general surrender of the Boors during the next fortnight by a preconcerted arrangement, but it is a far cry from Scheeper at Ondtshoorn to Botha and Delarey in the eastern Transvaal and every guerilla leader is tree to go as he pleases.

An incident whicli has escaped general observation in England may have a moral for Americans. It is the establishment of a German coaling station in the Farsan, or Kermeteh group ol \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDfeJands iii the Red sea. Russia has coveted r, harbor in these islands, but has* wot vestured to take possession of the group.! Germany, without giving offense ' to England, aiid probably by prearrange- \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDment, has obtained a foothold there and is treating the entire group as a possession of the empire. A coaling and naval station will be established and extensive works constructed. This has been done in the interest of German commerce, in the far East and for the sake of strengthening the navy, whicl. th. emperor has laid down as the chief work of. his reign. The time has gone by when Russia can obtain a naval station near Aden and Massowah, since the German emperor has closed tho question. The moral of this episode is that the emperor may have eyes upon other sites for naval stations for the development of German commerce. Whilo Americans are planning a canal across Nicr.rr-gui*: or Darien, and negotiation, over _ revision of the Clp.yton-Bulwer ^treaty, he may be casting about for a -n-j'val str.tion at St. TTTomas or in the \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDaijjSaoent islands. The purchase of .tho' Danish group by the United States may j*e fche wisest possible measure for anticipating his enterprise and avoiding \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDarj opeii (Challenge of the Monroe doctrine, The Times has a dismal leader on the opposition offered by Russia to the (Oir-pning of the Queita-Nushki route be- -.twsen India and Persia. This route \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDavoids Afghanistan territory aud passes through Seistan to Birjand and Kerr- \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDman, and is a shorter and safer channel i of trade between India and the commer- ^\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDciaj centers of Eastern Persia than the ordinary Bandar-Abbas route. Russia, having acouired effective control over the customs service of Persia, by virtue of a loan contracted last year, is making strenuous resistance to the development of traffic by the new route, and Indian traders are convinced that Persia is virtually in the Russian sphere of influence, and that British commerce will be blocked and paralyzed. The Times considers the decline of British trade in that quarter a natural consequence of the inaction of the government when it might have been possible to secure a loan from Loudon capitalists and avoid arming Russia with fresh resources for extending her influence ,sPver Persia. It urges the necessity of 'more resolute British statesmanship, and clearly is not hopeful that anything can be done. The British foreign office has been fortunate in having few advantages taken by rival powers of the opportunity offered by the South African war. It owes its immunity from- attacks mainly to the pacific purposes of the czar, and to the close relations of the British royal family and the continentalcourts. 'lhe czar having made engagements with the French president and with Edward VII,'is importuned by Leyds for an interview with ex-president Kruger. It is not possible that he will grant this request. Mr.' Kruger has been in Europe a year without meeting any European sovereign except queen Wilhelmina and she was powerless to support a demand for intervention against Great Britain. Politics has reached its lowest ebb. Mr. Broderick is the only minister strictly at work in London, and he is engaged on the routine business of the Wc*.i* office. The comical story of tha disappearance of a company of Yorkshire yeomanry was, easily explained, but evidence of mismanagement in the recruiting and dispatches of reserves to the imperial yeomanry is more serious. Transports are bringing back, week by week, men who could neither ride: nor shoot, and were physically unfit for service. When these recruits were sent out they received higher pay than the veteran yeomanry already in the field, but this grievance of the troops has been removed. The war oflice is ordering inquiries, but prestige cannot be restored by belated inquiries. Mr. Hanbury has pleased Glasgow by' praising the enterprise of that corporation in demanding the right to set up a municipal telephone service, when the postal authorities were fostering a private monopoly whicli was charging excessive rates. This opened the way for a forecast that trusts of all kinds must be fought before they succeed in strangling the public. Mr. Hanbury has'point- cd to a municipal or national undertaking as hnvfiig the necessary leverage for offering' resistance to private trusts and monopolies. The experience of Glasgow and where provincial cities,justified the belief that the business of a municipality which was practically a monopoly can be arranged as well as that of any number of private companies pooled inio a gigantic .trust.:.'.

CLEVELAND'S CLOUD BURST Does $1,000,000 Damage.\" \" ' CLEVELAND, Ohio. .September 1 \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD With'the breaking of dawn this morning the citizens of Cleveland awoke to look upon a scene of unparalleled devastation and destruction caused by a raging flood. While the entire city was more or less affected, the great volume of raging water vented its anger over miles of the eastern portion and caused an amount of damage approximated at \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD1,000',000. The appalling overflow was caused by a terrific rain that commenced to fall shortly after two o'clock\", turning into a perfect cloudburst between the hours of 3 and 5 o'clock, and then continued with great fury until nearly .10 o'clock. That no lives were lost is nothing short of a miracle, as many stories _of__*_s_c_apes_fi*omAim wto*_gn^_ey_er___of_ the principal residence streets of the city are told. The surging waters spread over an area in the east end nearly eight miles long and a mile and a half wide. Great volumes of water poured over the country from Doan and Giddings brooks and rushed over Cedar avenue, back over on East Prospect street, rushed like a millrace down Lincoln avenue, and then on the Glen Park, where houses were undermined as though built of straw, and did almost incredible damage to streets and property, bridges, trestles; and for hours nothing seemed capable of stemming the tide. Hundreds of residents who wero imprisoned in their homes like stranded islanders were panic- stricken. Danger signals were flashed about the city as quickly as the disabled telephone would allow and the work of rescue commenced. Rowboats plied back and forth, assisting whole families from perilous positions, but these proved pitifully inadequate, and it was soon found necessary to go to the extraordinary precaution of calling on the life sr.vins crew from the river, a distance of seven miles. The lifeboats were ouickly loaded on wagons and hurried to the scene of destruction. Boers Blow Up a Train. LONDON.

The Coast papers of Friday and Saturday came to hand last night. All three of the \"Vancouver papers say that J. C. Brown of New Westminster will be invited to join the Dunsmuir government as finance minister. The Victoria Colonist of Saturday does not say a word about the matter; but the Times of Friday afternoon contains the following: It is understood that a successor to hon. J. H. Turner as finance minister has been selected in the person of an ex- finance minister of the province, and one of its veteran war-horses, J. C. Brown of New Westminster. The choosing of a successor to Mr. Turner has awaited the return of the premier,* who it was understood was a warm advocate of Mr. Brown's selection for the position. Other elements in the cabinet- were strenuously opposed to the advent of Mr. Brown, and a certain section of the government's supporters, of whicli John Houston of Nelson was the spokesman, insisted on the appointment of R. F. Green, M.P.P., for Slocan. Mr. Green made two or three trips to the capital in pursuance of this campaign, but the absence of the premier stood in the way of anything being effected. Another strong candidate for the position was H. D. Helmcken, senior member for the city, and it was believed that he was the nominee of Mr. Turner himself for the portfolio.-which he is about to vacate. Mr. Brown's claims found a warm advocate and sponsor, it is generally believed, in Joseph Martin, M.P.P.,: whose strong canvass foiv.Mr. Brown would seem to have been successfulwith the premie* The decision of the premier will probably be communicated to the member for New Westminster at once. His selection will involve the government-in two bye-elections, namely, one for the City of .Victoria, to fill the seat vacated by hon. Mr. Turner/and the other, the necessary bye-election of the new cabinet minister for..New Westminster. Among politicians the prospective promotion of the. New Westminster politician while regarded as bringing to the government\" a member of tried ability, is likely to minimize: the prestige of Mr. McBride on the lower Mainland/and thus lead to friction between the two ministers mentioned. Indeed, it is said that the minister from Dewdney threatened to resign his portfolio if his Westminster colleague were admitted to the executive council, but his protests had no influence with the premier, who insisted on '\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD hf-ving his way, even if it cost him a vacant portfolio of mines.

The report from there tonight says the situation is critical, Two boss melters and all first helpers went to work as usual this morning, and all twelve furnaces were charged. Only one second helper went in, and ab ladlemen stayed out. Sixty day turn men are out, and the strikers say not a man will report in the morning if the open hearth is shut down. The forty- inch mill must also shut down. This mill supplies Monessen, Vandergrift, and Limmils, hence the movement is important to the strikers. Mill officials say today that the strike is on, but they say no serious results will follow. John Redmond Talks.

He declared that the Irish people \"Can safely disregard such threats and rely upon the provision of the act of union, which settles the question of representation.\" Dilating on what he called \"The collapse of the parliamentary system during the recent session,\" he said that it proved that with a little pressure the united Irish party could get anything they wanted.

This was the fourteenth renewal of the Futurity.\" It is .a produce slake, mares being nominated in foal. The starting fee is $250, and the association adds to the entrance'.and starting fees ?750. The race was to be run today for tho last time over the old Futurity course, which is 170 feet short of six furlongs. Only two fihies have won in the history of the race, Butterfly in 1S04 and L. C.

The-betting ring was a seething mass of humanity. The layers of odds were besieged and a flood of money poured in. It was almost impossible to fight one's way near enough to the layers to get a bet down. The rank and file could sec nothing in the race but the Whitney entries, Nasturum and King Hanover, and opening at 9 to 5. they were played clown to 7 to 5 and 12 to 10. The Madden horses, Yankee and Gunfire, were a strong second choice at 4 to 1. When Blue Girl was' scratched Heno and De- reszke had a strong following at 10 to 1. while Barron, the much-touted maiden, and Lux Casta were also well played at 12 to 15 to 1, respectively. The others ranged in price from 20 to 25 to 1, scattering bets being made on all of them. In the paddock the scene \yas a pretty one. The cancli~dateS~were-be\"inT*rsalluTed- and fitted for the struggle and a big crowd watched the final touches. There were two false breaks, and the crowd was getting impatient, for the word, when suddenly the familiar cry of \"they're off\" sang through the stand. It seemed to electrify the crowd and everybody was on his feet echoing the cry. At first it was a wild scramble for nosition; Saturday was the first to show, with King Hanover, Hyphen, Yankee, and Dereszke close at his heels. It was a good start for all except Heno, who wheeled as the flag fell and was left. At top speed they came to the bend into the main track like a line of cavalry, and at that point all eyes could see the blue with brown cap of Mr. Whitney's King Hanover on the rail and a short neck before Penticont. Lux Casta, Yankee, Dereszke, Caughnawage, and Barron were well up and the most prominent of the others. As they flashed nast the half mark it was still anybody's race. To everyone's surprise, however, Nasturum, the pride of the Whitney stables, was way back in the -uck. * \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD Into the last furlong they came for the heartb-.-esU-in!*- dash to the wire. King Hanover was gradually dropping back and Odom sent Lux Casta to the front, closely followed by Penticost, Yankee, Dereszke, and Barron. \"The favorite is beaten,\" wailed the crowd. \"Lux Casta wins!\" shi'ieked those who were over-anxious to announce the result. But the race was not over yet. O'Connor drew his whip on Yankee and the colt responded in the gamest manner, quickened his stride and, foot by foot, crept up on the fly- in**: leader. Odom was hard at work wilh the whip and spur on Lux Casta in an effort to earn tho coveted honors, but Yankee, with long, even strides was not to be denied. A hundred yards from the wire the two were head and head. Lux Casta hung on gamely, and for a few strides neither could claim i'-ii advantage. It was a stirring struggle, a bitter fight, and the monster crowd was cheering and shouting. Then came the cry \"Yankee wins,\" as foot by foot ho drew awav and passed under the wire a length and a half in front. Co'onhia's Insurrection.

KALISPELL, Montana, August 31.\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDIt is believed thirty-six lives were lost and .thirteen persons were injured in the wreck last night of a Great Northern railway passenger train at Nyack, thirty miles west of Kalispell. None of the passengers were injuieu, the fatalities having been confined to employes of the road. The special car of assistant general superintendent H. L. Downs and a day coach of laborers were demolished and caught lire and burned. Superintendent-Downs and,his. son were instantly killed, as was also their cook. Many laborers were killed and burned, but the number cannot be estimated. The sleeper caught fire, but it is'-reported that all passengers got out safely. It is not known the extent or number of injured among the passengers. AU the physicians in Kalispell and a wrecking crew have been sent to the scene of the accident. Ten cars of shingles and\" other freight caught fire, which added to the horror of the disaster. A train loaded with dead and injured will arrive in a few hours. ' Superintendent Downs was at his supper when the cars struck, and it is the general opinion of all that he with his young son were killed instantly and that they did not suffer. Conductor Matthews, who was in =cliaige=of=the=i'reight=-ti-ainj=is=almost= crazed with grief over the sad accident and ins trainmen aro likewise affected. He was in the ofiice at Essex getting orders and both brakemen were with the engines. The air leaked and the train, being on steep grade, slipped away without the train crew's knowledge. It dashed down theniountain at a tremendous rate of speed, variously estimated from 75 to 100 miles an hour. The laborers killed were from Duluth, and were coming west to work on the Jennings branch of the Great Northern. They were mostly Scandinavians and Norwegians. The coroner took charge of the remains of the men killed and brought them here. He will hold an inquest tomorrow to determine the responsibility of the wreck. ST.

In the collision, P. T. Downs, assistant general superintendent, was killed, together with his son, Kirk T. Downs, his cook. Henry Blair, and about twenty-five laborers, who were moving west in a coach at the rear of the train. None of the regular passengers on the train were injured. The wreck took fire and the remains of all except five of those killed were burned and it is, therefore, not positively known how many fatalities resulted. In addition to those killed, twelve laborers and brakeman Burke were injured. Mr. Downs entered the railway service April 1st, 1SGS, as a brakmean on the Central Vermont railroad. In ISSti he became master ot trains on a division of the Louisville & Nashville railroad, and after holding various positions with various Southern and Western roads, entered the service of the Great Northern in 1S97. Lord Salisbury's Ritirement. LONDON, August 31.\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDA representative of tho Associated Press learns that the rumors of lord Salisbury's retirement arc due to the existence of agitation within the premier's own family that . he take the step in order to preserve his health. Ilia sons and daughters believe tho strain of conducting the affairs of the empire is bound to shorten his life. In this they have been opposed by several less closely related, members of the Cecil family, and almost all the leaders of the Unionist party. The latter, so far as can be ascertained, are likely to prevail for the present at any rate. Their contentions that relief from the duties of premier would be a very doubtful benefit to lord Salisbury's health, which just now is not bad, considering his age. In former times when his retirement was mooted, the opposition to such a step was based on the absolute necessity for lord Salisbury's presence in the foreign office. Thanks to lord Lansdowne's apparent ability to handle that department, this necessity no longer exists. But the theory is no a* changed, and the Unionists admit that the selection of a successor to lord Salisbury would perhaps precipitate an internecine struggle, Hence the extreme, and as some of the members of lord Salisbury's family consider, almost inhuman pressure on the premier to retain power which, for himi has lost all attraction. \"\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD'\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD'\", American Sailors Enter tained. LONDON, August 31.\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD-Seldom have so many American war vessels '\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD> appeared simultaneously in English ports. Scarcely had the Hartford and the Essex arrived in the Thames before the Chicago excited the curiosity of Portsmouth citi- vens.v Then the Dixie: arrived at Southampton, and now the Buffalo and crew are being entertained at Greenock. The Hartford and the; Essex have left, but the others remain and are receiving the most hospitable treatment. The English officers regret that the vessels.could not all come to one port, so that a welcome could have been organized. The officers are puzzled at the fact that the European squadron at present consists of the lonely little Chicago, and that rear admiral Cromwell has no control over or even communication with the other American naval vessels now in England. The arrival of the mayor and the corporation of Southampton, in full regalia alongside the 'Dixie created intense interest among the western lads who are learning to be Jackies. Such an array of gold and purple was something new to them, and they commented upon the visitors with all the vigor of first impresions. WORK HAS BEEN STOPPED FOREMAN AND ARCHITECT CANNOT AGREE.

General Improvement Noted LONDON, September 1.\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDThe stock- exchange situation may now be fairly described as more hopeful than at any other time since the vacation season began. As yet however, there is no great buoyancy in any department. A number of the leaders are cutting their holidays shorter than usual, apparently in the hope of being on the spot whenever there begins to be something doing. Easy money continues to be a feature. With its present reserve the Bank of England views with apparent equinam- ity prospective withdrawal for New York. There seems to be little likelihood of a sever autumnal stringency. At the samo time continental exchanges are -weakening-all-arouiidrand=itns= evident\" that London may be called upon to supply other demands than New York's. Another feature, which sems to be persistently ignored by optimistic financial critics, is the fact that the government has never professed that the last consul issue would provide for active operations in South Africa beyond October 15th. There seems small doubt that an avalanche of criticism will accompany the new loan which will inevitably bo announced, and this will operate as a serious setback for the present more hopeful tone of the stock exchange. In the meantime tlje small but steady absorption of gilt edged securities wliich has been noted for the last fortnight continues. Business in home railroad stocks will bo slightly better than the past week, although the statement of twelve leading roads, while showing an increase of ,e 192,000 in passenger earnings during the past nine weeks, showed a decrease of .G30S,000 in freight earnings, as against the corresponding period of last year. The American department of the stock exchange continues very active, coal shares leading on further talk of community interest coupled with the aspect of the steel strike which is regarded as a breakdown. The substantial advance in Erie took bargain hunters off their guard, but there was considerable speculative demand, even at the rise, on tho rumor that Erie common would go to sixty. Mining shares in a way showed the general feeling.of encouragement. The disposition of Whittaker Wright at the meeting of the Lc Roi Mining Company, Limited, added decidedly to the joyousness of thn situation. The Rand now boasts of 3(S5 stamps, and ono new permit to resume was issued during the week. West Australians wero stronger, outside buyers venturing in. although timidly. Altogether, barring accidents and the inevitable government borrowing, the stock exchange seems to be looking in the direction of more prosperous times. Lord Strathcona in Montreal. MONTREAL, September 1. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD Lord Strathcona and Mount Royal arrived in the city today. In reply to a question of resigning he said: \"I am still high commissioner.\" Ho will remain here until after the ducal visit, the party being entertained at his house here. Work upon the federal government's building was practically suspended on Saturday by order of James A. McDonald, the government architect and clerk in charge of the work. Ever since the work was started there has been more or less friction between the architect and the foreman in charge of the work, but on Saturday a crisis was reached when the architect suspended the contractor's estimate, and called for the discharge of foreman Doviaux, or some assurance that for the future the forman would comply with the requirements of the contract. As before mentioned there has been more or less friction between the foreman and the architect from the start, but when it came to the setting of the ashlar an open rupture occurred. This stone is from tho Mansfield marble quarry, and while the architcet has no complaint whatever to make with the quality of the stone, he has very serious objections to the workmanship of the contractors upon the stone. The specifications require that this stone shall be dressed so that it shall have an even bed, and the trouble cropped up with practically the setting of the first stone. It was not dressed to suit the architect, who took exception to the spawls which were set under it. This however was but a minor objection to that taken to the workmanship on the stone supplied ' from the quarry. Around the building'a few feet from the ground, the plans call \" for a water table. This is.required to be chiselled, with a marginal draft he7' low the wash but the architect complains that instead of being chiselled is has been bush hammered, and the marginal draft has all the appearance of having put on with a corkscrew. Another^ and what may be regarded as an even more serious objection taken by the architect was that some of the stone for thp water table had virtually no bed, coming off at one end to a feather point-) The objections taken to the manner in which the stone is cut aro that by bush hammering the life of the stone is destroyed, and the..appearance of the building marred in that the manner in which the stone is dressed will cause water to lodge on the water table. The marble is also at fault as dimension stone by reason of the fact that the variations in it are greater than those per-_ mittcd by the specifications. The objections taken to the stone by reason of the insufficient bod are that it will be required to be backed up 'by smaller stuff with mortar, in which there will- be considerable shrinkage, thus rendering the stone liable to crack as a result of the weight of the wall coming upon a small surface. In short the architect is generally dissatisfied, and in conversation with a Tribune representative said that he thought that some of the work wliich tlie contractors were _tnying_to_put\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD into-tho-building\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDwould- be rejected ou bridge work-. It is not likely that anything further - will be done on tho building until the authorities at Ottawa arc heard from. It is generally understood that the dif- : Acuity will be determined by the political pull of the respective parties, but the architect says ho is not afraid of, this, wliich may bo taken to mean that ho has a pull of his own. The action of the government'in lotting the contract to the eastern men was never approved by tlio local Grits, and for tliis reason they may Ire counted upon supporting tho architect, who, whatever else may bo said about him is certainly looking to it that Nelson's show building is not to he destroyed by inferior workmanship.

It was then known that finance minister Turner was to leave the government in order to go to England as agent-general for the province. The vacancy caused hy the retirement of Mr. Turner is to he filled, not by one of the six who jumped the traces, but by one of the six whom the leader of the opposition placed in line at the opportune time. John Cunningham Brown is an abler man than Harry Helmcken, and his honesty has never been questioned. His standing in New Westminster must be high, for he' is seldom defeated for office, and he often runs. He has been alderman and mayor and member of the legislative assembly at different times. He was postmaster there for years, and resigned that position to take office under \"Joe\" Martin as minister of finance, which was a sacrifice on his part. \"Joe\" is true to his friends, and when he had the chance to do Mr. Brown a good turn, he evidently did so. How the selection will be taken by the rank and file of the supporters of the Duinsnniir government is a question. Some of them will not like it and will kick over the traces. Others will not like it, but will stay in line. Others, again, will be afraid to say whether they like it or not. Premier Dunsmuir should keep right on, since he has made a beginning at reconstructing his cabinet, and make a clean sweep. rTTlTTTrtTrTtTTrrfrTTTTTTTTTTTmtTTTTr LADIES' SUNSHADES \ AT HALF PRICE.

The Sandon Paystreak comes out squarely against a policy that will permit our natural resources, like coal and ore, to he hauled across the boundary line in order to build up the smelting industry in the United States, and says that if the province was governed by far-seeing men no such condition of affairs would be allowed to exist: The Tribune is the one newspaper in the province that has always stood for the smelting of our ore at home. ' It was the one paper in the province that favored making the mineral tax 4 per cent, and remitting half or all on ore smelted within the province. This was considered too drastic, but it was the right policy. It would have caused the removal of the Le Roi smelter to \"British Columbia, and it would have hastened the erection of silver-lead smelters in several districts. But a howl went up from the mine owners, who appear to howl every time any policy is suggested that wnl benefit the province. o'clock the two big main sails went aloft. On the Constitution much care was taken in getting up this big piece of canvas, and it was fully half an hour before it was in place. The regatta committee announced that the yachts would hen sent over a fifteen mile windward and leeward course under the regular America's cup conditions, with a time limit of five and a half hours. The Columbia crossed the finish line at 3.02.1 and the Constitution crossed at 3.06.3, four minutes two seconds behind Columbia. The official time for the start was Columbia 11; 41 ;15. Constitution 11; 42; 06. The Columbia therefore beats Constitution 3 minutes 17 seconds elapsed time, 4 minutes 28 seconds corrected time. Greenwood.\"Smelter Again in Blast.

John Houston, Manager. Nolson, 13. \"C. The reported invitation to John Cunningham Brown, M.P.P., of New Westminster City, to enter the Dunsmuir government was not unexpected. The railway policy of the government at the last session created a break in the ranks of its supporters; and also a break in the ranks of the opposition. The government was made aware that it could not depend on the votes of Messrs. Helmcken, McPhillips, and Hall of Victoria City, Hayward of Esquimau, Tat- law of Vancouver, and Murphy of West Yale. To even up this defection, the leader of the opposition handed over the votes of Messrs. Brown of New Westminster CUy, Mclnnis of Nanaimo City, Staples of C.as*3iar, Oliver of Delta, Gil- be considered in the q'lestion. The government, on the repeated demands of the people, made an appropriation for a public building. Tenders were called for, and the- lowest tender happened to be that of a firm of contractors who live at or near Ottawa, The tender is too low for good work; hut that Is no reason why shoddy work should be substituted. In the West, fortune is gained by experience, not by political pull. II the men who have contracted to erect the public building at Nelson lose money in carrying out their contract, no one is to blame but themselves. They should have remained in the East, and allowed Western men to take care of Western contracts.

For the flrst time in the history of the America cuy races it has been possible to ret. a line upon the two boats which will meet off Sandy Hook; for we take -it for- granted that unless Constitution can be brought to the 'iioint\"iri, whicli she can beat Columbia in a wind of more than seven knots' strength, the older boat will be called udou for the second timo to reprerent this eou.i.ry in the famous contest, says a writer in the Scientific American. In 1S99 Columbia met Shamrock I nearly a dozen times off Sandy Hook, and during the present season S'-amrock II has been tested against the, old challenger in numberless trials under all possible sailing. condition.1*. In the present uncertainty as to Constitution's full capabilities we must take Columbia as a basis of comparison. In I.S99 she beat Shamrock I by-10 minutes in an averase eight-knot breeze, and again beat her-by six minutes. 16 seconds in a breeze of about 20 knots an hour. Both of these races consisted of windward and leeward work with no reaching. It is'generally admitted, both here and in England, that Shamrock I suffered somewhat from poor handling, and much more from the fact that her spars and \"standing, rigging were too frail, and failed to keep the sails up to the wind. The only changes, we arc now informed, made in Shamrock I preparatory to her trials with Shamrock II, were to reduce her sail-plan and greatly strengthen and stiffen her spars, with the result that her sails set admirably aud she now no longer carried.a.lee helm. As the result of the, improved set of her sails, her better helm, anil the fine weatherly qualities she; developed, the experts who have had charge other trials have assured the writer that she is at least five minutes faster over a 30-mile course,:the gairubeing chiefly in windward work. To this may be added a possible gain iii speed due to the' better handling whicli she received under her new captain. In the later trials of Shamrock II, when her best trim had been determined, she beat the older boat by the following carefully-timed amounts i:: good whole-sail breezes: Going to windward she gained three minutes in 13 1-2 miles, the boats having split tacks to avoid' interference; going to leeward in a 17-knot breeze she gained 4 1-2 minutes in 13.1-2 miles, Shamrock II beiti-* the leading boat; while on a broad reach in a 13-knot breeze, with the wine': slightly abaft the beam, she gained 4 1-4 minutes in seven miles. This 'last is certainly a remarkable performance in view of the fact that Shamrock I. n; a tuning-up trial down the Jersey coast and .back, reached for 30 knots at a speed of 13 knots an hour.\" These results would indicate that Shamrock II is about 12 minutes faster in a club-top sail breeze than Shamrock I in the form that the latter showed v/hen over her -MnrlSOOr London Ofllce, 60 Lombard Street.

For instance, this morning it is learned that a new suit of sails will arrive in America on the steamship St. Louis, and that the canvasses cost ?13,000. Sir Thomas believes in resting one day a week, and his men never work on Sundr.r. It will interest those Canadians who are talking of building a yacht to race for the America's cup to read something about the cost of such luxuries! j-:e exact sum of, money paid for the Columbia in 1S99 is not known, but .it has been estimated., at not less than $150,000. Without a\" doubt it cost over $50,000 to carry her .through the season; probably the sum was much greater than this. In the first part of the season ; her owners paid $16,000 for three suits of sails. And then there was the De- fonder. whicli acted as a trial horse to the Columbia. - It cost just $50,000 for her to be a, trial horse, but it was paid without a groan.

The Question of the absolute security cf the cup is dependent just now, evidently, up.Mi what further speed cau be developed in Constitution. Sir Thomas Lipton's second effort ts lift that cup is costing the Irish sportsman ft mint of money. It is estimated that tho expense of having the first Shamrock beaten by Columbia two years ago was close to $1,000,000. The expense of the second Shamrock's defeat or victory will probably be more than that The Lipton fleet at anchor today off Stapleton, Staten Island, is an imposing one, when it is considered that sport is its object. It comprises five ships, and . strung out in a line they make a formidable array. At the head of the line to the north is the big steam yacht Erin, one , of the finest vessels of her kind afloat. Next in line is Shamrocks tender, the Porto Rico, an ocean-going- steamship, which, until chartered by sir Thomas, had been in the fruit- carrying trade between American ports and the West Indies. Astern of the Porto Rico lies the Jame.** A. Lr.wrence, an ocean-going tug. The Lawrence, which is one of the handsomest and fast- rest tugs in New York harbor, is the busi- jiess boat of the fleet.

Of course the construction of the cup challenger is the biggest item. No one but sir Thomas, designer \"Watson, and the Dennys, her builders, know exactly what Shamrock II cost. But a guess of $400,000 is not likely to be far wide of the mark. And then there are a United States.

The letter says in part: \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD---.'. On Thursday we decided to take a strong patrol over to Vryfontein and Zurfontein to get some water barrels, barbed wire, and other useful things. We. sent out three white scouts about 5 a. m., who returned and reported thirteen Boers only upon the hill. It was ordered that we should take the seven- pound gun, and so we pulled out at 7 a. m., about 60 strong. We went forward, 40 men, and came on with about 20 as escort to the gun. ; Of these we had to. leave five to hold a house to cover our retreat, and so we went on. As we went up^-the hill I heard very heavy firing on. my front and right, and we received an order to gallop and shell Zurfontein farms from the sky-line, as the Canadians were in a hole. We were straining along when suddenly I heard the commanding officer blowing the \"rally-' on his horn, so while thinking things were serious we had the order, \"About and gallop.\" Captain McDowall came up and told us .to fire one round and then gallop hard for Vereenging, which we did. The rear guard, instead of falling back, ybecame advance guard and went like smoke. As the ground was fairly rotten some of us had to go 20 yeards ahead and pilot the gun: Bullets began to hail around, and upon turning I saw, the hill simply covered 'with men galloping like blazes towards me.y We increased your pace, and turning round I saw men on each side of the gun/and behind it, shooting and shouting, but still we kept on. But it was no good, for we ran into ploughed land, and had to pull up. The Boei*s simply formed a solid mass round the. gun, about 200 strong, and yelled to me and others to' \"Hands up.\" I waited upon _ the flankers : to come up, but they were captured; and the. Boers were firing \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD at me from 20 to 30 yards, several kneeling. Then foiir started for me,' so I kissed my hand to them and rode off, as I rode on Monday night. Phew! It was a go; but my beauty carried me through till I reached the kraals by the coal mine dam.- There I. found four men, and together we rode back to try and cover captain McDow- all's retreat andsee whatcpuld be done. We collected some more men, and then I heard the particulars. It appears Dewet was trying to pass north and somebody gave us away, and they simply egged us on till they had us. cornered, and then rode us down. Captain-Bennett .(Canadian) was taken by Dewet himself. Our total casualties: One gun, four killed, six wounded, and 24 prisoners, and one Kaffir scout shot in cold blood as well. The Boers reported seven killed, four dangerously wounded, and 20 slightly. A dispatch rider was sent as hard as he could go to Vereenging for help; but they did not turn-out for ian=hour=and\"a=halfrand=theh*only\"at\"ir walk.
