Ratepayers Refuse to Endorse Pandora Avenue Gore as the City Hall Site — Generous Support for School Measure

PACIFIC S.S. SERVICE

sir Donald Mann Saye Canadian Worth- ern -Will Con»ider Eetabll»hment

VANCOUVEli, July 11.— -Vs soon as our Canadian transcontinental line is completed we will at once -.ake up the <lue.stlon of establishing a steamship service to Australia and the Orient, de- clared Sir Donald Mann on his return from Victoria today. The Canadian .Vorthern two years ago established a steamship service on the Atlantic, con- sisting of two pas.senger steamers and half a dozen freighters. The venture succeeded financially, hut has been even more valuable In establishing ■the prestige of the Canadian Northern H broad. Both the other big railway systems In Canada have direct steam- ship connections with the motherland. The C. P. R. has its own line of steam- ers, and has also a close connection with the Allan line, while the G. T. P, has a working agreement with the White Star line. The C. N. R. owns Its own line.

The same conditions will soon pre- vail on the Pacific as on the Atlantic. The Canadian Pacific has Its own ves- sels plying to the Oriental ports, and the G. T. P. officials have already an- nounced that a.s soon as the line is fin- ished through from AVInnlpeg to the Pacific a steamship service will be in- augurated.

Now comes the announcement of Sir Donald Mann that the Canadian Northern is not to be outdone either on land or sea. A fleet of steamers car- rying the C. N. R. flag will be estab- lished on the Pacific and will make this port tnelr terminus.

Sir Donald said that all the com- pany's efforts are being devoted to the completion of the line from Montreal to the coast. The business would ))e here as soon as the line was here. The question of branch lines in British Col- umbia could wait. He repeated the statement that the company would like •to establish Us western terminals at False Creek. He believed that was the natural site for the purpose. Oncn the question of a terminal was aettftjl, there woijld be time enough to decide the means of entering the city.

TODAY'S SUMMARY

Ratepayers of the city yesterday, by their votes Indicated plainly tl'.at they hay* no desire that a new city hall ^should be erected on the Pandora avenue gore, between Cook and Chambers i streets. Wliile the majority of the liiST votes cast were In favor of the bylaw to authorize the expenditure of ?')00,000 upon a new structure located » on that site, the vote in favor of the measure was 113 short of the required tliree- flfihs of the total vote cast, and ac- cordingly the bylaw was defeated.

On the other hand, generous support of the school loan bylaw, to raise *175, • 000 for school purposes, was sreorded by the votf^rs, the measure being easily passed. The official figures, as declared by Returning Officer Northcott, were as follows:

City Hall Bylaw

V'OT 659

Against B24

Total ballots cast, 1287; spoiled bal- lots, 4.

School l«o»n Byla-vr

^°^ 859

Against 324

Total ballots cast, 1187; spoiled bal- lots, 4.

As to carry either of the bylaws, the total vote In favor of the measure must be three-fifths of the total vote polled, the school loan bylaw was carried by 147 votes, while the city hall bylaw failed by 113 votes of being; carried.

Considering the fact that the voting on bylaws on any date other than on the date of a civic election, is generally very small, indicating some lack of Interest On the part of the ratepayers, yesterday's vote was better than usual. It Is a re- markable fact that exactly one hundred voters took the trouble to turn out and vote on the city hall measure, but failed, or refused. to cast a h.allot for the school loan bylaw, though both polls were at the same place.

The friends of the city hall measure did their best to get out the vote, and succeeded remarkably well. They pro- Contlimed on Page 2, Col. S

by Canadian ministers, the cornmltte* of Imperial defence, which will ulti- mately decide Canada's participation in the naval policy of the empire, op- ened yesterday. Seated around the first table were the first lord of the Admiralty, "Winston Churchill; the first sea lord. Sir Arthur K. Wilson, Sir Kd- ward Grey, Sir John French, Colonel Seely, Earl Crewe, the secretary for India; Lord Haldano, the lord high chancellor; Lloyd-George, Lewis Har- court and several minor officials.

The meeting was largely informal, and little progress was made. The next meeting takes place next week, and thereafter will be weekly.

Hon. Mr. Pelletier this afternoon re- ceived a deputation of the Empire Press union, at which representatives of the British and Canadian press, headed by Hon. Harry Lawson, were present. A memorandum was submit- ted, pointing cut the excessive trans- atlantic rates as compared with those between London, South Africa and Australia. The dlslderatum was a state-owned cable, but at any event a material reduction to the present rate was urged. The deputation xetlred with the Impression that something will shortly be done towards bettering the conditions.

Hon. Mr. Pelletier and his wife were later entertained at the dinner given b.v the postmaster general and Mrs. Samuels. The premier was present this afternoon at Premier Asqulth's garden party. On tYlday he will visit the Duke of Norfolk and spend the weelf-encl at Arundel.

Owing to the shoals of Invitations of a social and state nature which still continue to come, he has been obliged to decline a Mansion House dinner at present.

Desire of Inhabitants Is Union With Greece — Italian Pro- tectorate in Archipelago Is Not Favored

NATIONAL HOPES

ATHENS. .July 11.— An Inspired edi- torial appeared In The Patrls yesterday as a reply to the Italian propaganda among the Aegean l.^'landers in favor of a protectorate over the archlpellgo. It says:

"Italy makes a mistake In Imagining that the Aegean islands want a new master. Although they acclaim the Italians as liberators from the Turkish yoke, it must not be Imagined that they desire a change of natloujjllty. Their one great desire Is to be in.t-'d with Oreece. Furthermore, If (he It- alians should .I'-ek to compel thj.ni t> renounce their national aspirations, they will resist, weak though th:-/ ar>.

"In the opinion of the Islanderi, the Islands, belnir averwhelmlngly Or.>ek in nationality, should in Justice be re- stored to Qreece. Union with Greece is the Islanders' one hope."

This waa t»e statement made ty Senator Kuf us F. Pope, who arrived from Calgary today. Senator Pope was one of the first senatorial appointments of the Borden govemmtnt. He suc- ceeded the late Senator Baker as the representative of the Eastern townships in the upper chamber.

Senator Pope is here on a holiday trip, which will Include Victoria. "I believe." he said, "that Quebec feels very much like her sister provinces on all great national questions. Its vote against reciprocity showed that. If the campaign last September had lasted two weeks longer the province would have returned a majority a«aln8t re- ciprocity. It took a long time to con- vince the . habitant that reciprocity would be detrimental to his best In- terests, but once he saw It he voted against his great compatriot. Sir Wll- fritl Laurier.

"The same thins: would happen on the naval question, I am firmly con- vinced. The French-Canadian Is loyal to British connection and the British throne. lie j^oa»~not want annexation to the United States. That would mean the loss of the special privileges he no-7^ enjoys, such as the French civil law and separate schools. King George never recelve.d a more loyal reception than he enjoyed at the Tercentenary celebration In Quebec a few years ago. I believe the -province of Quebec Is pre- pared to contribute Its auota to the British naval strength if the question Is presented fairly and squarely, with- out any other qualifying considera- tions."

Senator Pop;- PnS-'i that Uic Eastern townships, which, since the time of the coming of the United Empire Loyalists, had been the English-speaking portion of Quebec, were fast becoming French. Sherbroolce. the chief city, was now two-thirds French-Canadian. The ex- odus of English-speaking farmers from the townships to Western Canada was continuous. To offset this the boards of trade of the differet towns In that portion of Quebec had united In a movement to attract British Immigra- tion. An agent had been sent to Eng- land to Induce immigrants to settle in that portion of the Dominion, where the conditions, such as well-tilled farms and mixed crops, were very similar to those In England.

Great Britain Questions Right of United States to Discrim- inate in Favor of Amerioan Vessels

WASHINGTON. D. C, July 11.— The lines were drawn tonight for a diplo- matic struggle between the United States ai^d Great BrI'taIn over, the ques- tion Whether this country may dis- criminate In favor of American vessels in the admUkistratlon of the Panama canal. The wordy warfare may termin- ate in the submission of the question to the Hague tribunal.

A series of diplomatic and legisla- tive conferences today developed the fact that the forces in the American government which favor allowing Am- erican ships free passage through the canal, are In control. These forces sav that there Is nothing in the Hay- Pauncefotc treaty on -which the canal was built to prevent this concession.

The diplomatic struggle, precipitat- ed by the note received today from Mitchell Innes. In charge of the British embassy, will bp fought out strongly.

Minister of Railways, who Is studying conditions in 'British Columbia

Hon. Frank Cochrane, minister of rail- ways, who arrived in the city thia evening, almost 24 hours behind hla schedule, the delay being due to . a| train wreck at Kamloops. Mr. Coch- rane was met by Mr. H. H. 6t«vens, iVI. P., and Mr. H. S. Clements, M. P.; tor Comox-Atlin, and dined with them at the Hotel Vancouver.

In conversation with a representa- tive of The Colonist, Mr. Cochrana said this was hla first visit through to the coast since he became a mem- ber of the Dominion cabinet. "If I had known as much ad>out the differ- ent railway systems during the past session of parliament as I do now I .n'ould have been in a much better position to deal with railway quea- tions. 1 believe every minister should famtllaTlze himself with the condltlona with which his department deals. I am leaving tomorrow night for Prince Rupert and will spent! several days inspecting the G. T. P. There Is no special matter there to engage my at- tention. I simply want to see at first hand the progress of the work balac done there."

"While In Vancouver,' he continued, "I will disouss with the North Van- couver council the question of the C P. R. granting running rights over the new line Into that municipality. Contrary to the general belief the company has not refused to grant running rights but naturally they want to do so If possible. I expect< an amicable agreement will ba reached."

Parliamentarian, Visiting the

Coast

VANCOU\lvR, July lL_Onc of the Canaxla's oldest and best known par- liamentarians in the person of Mr. David Henderson, arrived in the city yesterday afternoon and -was one of the first to greet Hon. Frank Coch- rane, minister of railway.-?. Mr. Hen- derson is ^ the fourth oldest nicnuber of the house of commons In point of service. His predecessors In the hou.-^e are Sir Wilfrid Laurler, Dr. Sproulc, the speaker, Hon. John ilaggart jinU Hon. G. K. Foster. Mr. Henderson was first elected In 188S and ha.s aat in the house nearly twenty-four years. In company with his wife atid dauKh- tcr be is holidaying in the west. They returned from Victoria and leave for the ea.st tonight. This is not hi.s first trip to the coast by any mcan.s.

"Why blcas you, no." he ejaculated, "I have been out here several time.s, tho last time being three years ago! At that time I thought prices for real estate were too high but 1 wa.s mis- taken'. I made the same mistakr- In Toronto many years ago and I never recovered my n«ri'e for real estate transactions. Vancouver looks good to me. I think it is a flourishing and go-ahead piece and one with a great future. It wa.s a siriall town when 1 first saw It twenty years ago.

"1 have sat in parliament during the former Conservative regime and ail through the Laurier period. I be- lieve the present government i.s in for a long spell. The opjiositlon Is dis- organized and it's only a question of lime until Sir Wilfrid will retire.

"I think I am old enough to be a .'senator but the people of Halton county .seem to tliink differently. I havp no Idea how long 1 may continue to reptescnl that county In the hou>se. I am hut a chicken in point icf acr- \ '.ce In the house compared with Sir Wilfrid or Mr. Haggart. Time will tell."

PrinceeB Thsatre — Very few piaya call forth the s.\ mpathy and applause of an audience as well as "Black Flag," which is being presented thi.s week by the Willlam.s .Stock company. From the rising of the first curtain the audience neems to enter Into the very spirit of the play, snd it Is not strange that they do, for It Is a splendid story, well written, well acted, and full of life snd action. The situations are very In- tense, and all the chara.-tprs strongly dramatic. Mr. Richard I^onsdale as Harry Olyndon Is doing the best work of his engagement, while Mr. Dave Wil- liams as La7.arus l.« remarkably clever. Special mention shotild he made of the stage settings. The ocean scene and boat In the third act, also the cave ef- fect In the fourth, being especially fine. Xhe enthusiasm with wl.lch "BlacU Flag" Is nightly received shows that the public ocisslonally llkts a depart- ure from the more mcMleni drama. Some of the beet-known critics predict that melodvsma. In a modified form, la fast coming to the front. "Black Flag" will be played nt a matinee on Saturday aft- eitioon. The Williams Ht^nk company

The iilstory of politics is not very encouragins to those wlio seek to Mel up "tliird parlies." and hence many people In the rnltcd States, who are in symputh.v wiiii ilu- Roosevelt poli- cies, ure far from being satlsfletl that the movement, of which ti;' Is th.- h<'iifl, can bQ successful. . Yet t'l' i ■ n"-

Uoiitbedly show the new party ... making an exceptionally strong ■■»L<ti t. It has a very influential newspaper backing, anii m i> bt.ing promoted by some of the ablest and most influential men In the country. It Is, of course, much too sopn- to attempt to forecast . Its success; but a notable fact In the ^election Is. that the Roosevelt states at the Chicago "convention elect, ZH m«inbers of th«:e}eetor«4 coUi»fe,^oat »t a total membership o^- ftWi; or «fnly t$ short of a majority. 11' at a presUl^n- tlal election Mr. Roosevelt could carry these states it would le*ve 274 members to .be divided between Mr. Taft and Mr. Wilson, and under such clrcam- Btances there can be little doubt that Mr. Rooneevlt would receive the num- ber of votes necessary to elact him.

— Ttig 'Plttsbuis Post, wlileli auppor Mr. Roosevelt, takes the position that no Republican is bound by the action of the Chicago convention, whjeh It In- 8^st8~w«a i^auauTent'Troro"beginnlnig to end. Such papers as The M«w Y.prk ISvaalng Post, Tba N«w Tork Trii>ttn<l. The Philadelphia Inquir^rand Tho Chi- cago Inter-Ocean denounce the Roose- velt movement, but in popular opinion these journals are regarded with more or less distrust, because, rightly or wrongly, they are supposed to repriesent the views of the moneyed interests. The statement Is made that the great majority of the minor newspapers are ill favor of tho new movement. It must be conceded thftt the Roosevelt party is in a very different position from "third parties" In the past. It lias the advantage which comes from the espousal of a cause which appeals to the great inass of the people, and it has for a leader the one man in the United States who stands most prom- inently forward In public life, for agree or disagree with him as we may, there Is no denying the fact that Theodore Roosevelt Is today the leading citizen of his country.

A contemporary says that redistri- bution of parliamentary represent- ation' is a very delicate problem. U Is and it is not. As between the [Tovlnces it is simply a question of iirlthmetic, that is. If we are going to stand by the Rriti.ih North .America .\ct„ and if there is to be redlstr.'bu- ilon at the next session of parliament, v.e cannot \fTy we)] do anything else. If the position of the Maritime Prov- ince.s is one of lessening influence it :h ni'lte outside of the power, of the l>om;nlon parliament to change it. The Confederation Act must be amended. p.nd this can only br- doiif by the Brit- ish parliament, Vt'hether or not It would be advl.sable to ask a general nmendmcnt of that statute, to author- i/.e Canada to deal with the represent- ation as it may wee fit from time to time, Is an open question. We fajicy that any proposal to that effect would he opposed by Quebec, which under the present arrangement has a lixod membership or iiiu House of Com- mons.

.\ proposal ha.s tmanat<-fi fioiii New rirunswlck thai tlierc should ho an 'Irreducible minimum" of representa- tion. We have never assented to such ,in idea, but we have said that we could understand that it would appear a reasonaible one from the standpoint of a resident of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia or Prince Kdward's island. On- tario has hitherto been opposed to any consideration being extendwl to tlie smaller provinces, l)ut now ii.nt licr representation Is to <lrop to what it was In 1867 with a pro.speot of a fur- ther reduction in the future, she in:iy be disposed to look with u favorable eyfl upon the "irreducible inlnlmuiti," In the next house Ontario will havo four less merrjbers than In the pris- ent house, Nova .Scotia three le.s.s, Nuw Brunswick nn« less, I'rlnce Ed- ward's Island one less, .Manitoba, .Sas- katchewan, Alberta and British Co- lumbia each five more. There will be nfty.flve members In the next house from constituencies west of the Great Liakes; In the present house there nre thirty-five, so that we make a gain of twenty. The Kastem Provinces will have 177 memheri", a ioas of nine.

Whatever may be the fairness of I'.xing M minimum representation for any of the provinces, we point out again that nothing can tb« dona in

At the present rate of progress the wheat crop of the prairies will reach at least 300,000.000 bushels within five years. We think this a fairly conser- vative estimate. We ishowed in Ij, re- cent article that more than half the grain-growing area will be able to send its ouput to Liverpool more cheaply by way of , tbe Pacific Coast (and the Panama Canal than by any other route; but for the purpose of this reference, we will assume also that the total ex- port of all grains is only equal to two- thirds of the wheat crop. This Is far within the mark, but we wish to keep the figures low. This nieaiis that there Will be 100,0(10,000 bushels of grain grown on the Prairies, at tlio expira- tion of live ^lUrs from the present time, tlifi' iH>i be routed to its des- tination .idvantagoously by way of the I'acit'ic Coast than in any other way. One hundred million bushels of grain will weigh 3,700.000 tons, or suf- ficient to more than loa/d ' "<> -liips tlach carrying 6,000 tons of ^lum. As a rule ships do not care to make uii their cargoes exclusively of grain. In order to socuro the cheapest and best stowage they would prefer about two- tliirds their capacity in grain. Possibly we .shall not be very far astray if we suggest that to move the grain that will be grown In Alberta and western SaskU telle wan, annually five years hence, and exported, shipping equal to 1,000 vessels of 6,000 tons each would be employed. This means 3.700,000 tons of grain and 2. .100, 000 tons of other cargo. One thousand B.OOO-ton ships a year means almost three dally tha whole twelvemonth through, and yet there Ure some people who suppose Ilia I a single port, or at mcst two ports, and two or tiirec lines of rail- way can take care of this vast volume of traffic.

It follows from what l.s said above Ihat the western moVement of gilain will mean ihe development of other ex- ports. A shipmaster would prefer no« to carry a full cargo of grain. The reasons of this need not be explained In much detail, but mention may be made of the fact that gilain In bulk la seml-llquld. Its angle of repose is 20 degrees, which means tliat If thu sur- face of a bin of grain Is tilted 30 deg- rees, the grain will begin to slide No matter how well u ship is loaded, grain carried In bulk will settle, and there- fore vessels carrying grain only have to provide against the shifting of their cargo cautiKl by rolllngf. This can be done. but. It Is cxpenelvo and every ad- ditional expense In theae ofoys of keen competition must bD avolde<l If possible.

We quoted from add sumraariaed somewhat freely from Slf Sidney Lee's biography of King Edward yil., and it

may be interesting to know what some of the leadlnir British papers had to s«y about it. As far as we have ob- served Th Telegraph has been the only one to make arty condemnatory criticism. It says the biography is tactless and, while not raising any question " -t accurncy, is v. ry strongly ot ine opinion that it ought not to have been written. Tho Dally News thinks that the late King has really gained in reputation through the frankness nf tho biographer. The Dally Standard : . think that only tardy justice has been done the King by show- ing {he Handicap under which he la- bored when Prince of Wales, by reason of which ''he becaii?e King with only a small knowledge of public affairs." T-.he Spectator expresses pleasure that the late King could have been dealt with "In almost a passion of candor.'* Tho more we road of the book and the comments upon it the more blgliiy we esteem the late sovereign, for we see him devoted to the dlfncult "duties de- volving upon him. and without selfish aims, even \t we may agree with The Spectator in saying that "It rightly -ex- plodes romantic stories, which never ought to hiive gained currency among a sensible constitutional people, of King Edward's superhuman exploits as an original and Independent diplomatist."

As Sir Donald snys there is a "crl.sis, ' to which we cannot shut our eyes. 111.'! remarks are most statesmanlike and deserve consideration beyond the bounds of Canada. There are many opinions us to what Canada can, and .should do for iiome protection, and to malnwiln the strength of the seat of empire. The possessions of Oreal Britain are so vast and separated by great distance thai with war on her hands she could not protect all, it Is thei'efore our duty to do all we can for Ourselves — keep- ing the route — tho food route — open la very nearly of as much importance to (ireiit Britain a* keeping an enemy from landing on her shores.

There was an indefinite moon somewhere, but the water alone seemed, to attract its light. The trees all round the lake were a ring of ilarkncss.

We passed a large barrel full of water;, "eel tub," sold the colonel. "It's a midsummer game along the -Havel. They used to ride by It on farm horses, and try to fish the eel out with one hand as they ptissed. ICow they play the game on li " I remembered

Since I turned it over without manifest Interest, he explained almost in n whisper, "Yellow bedstraw. Wild lettuce, berlap. motherwort, and some other thtng-<). There should be seven.

India's Coronation Olft At the close approach of the annlversan- of coronation day, writes Mr. James Scvestre In the Txindon Standard. I am Im- pelled to give publicity to the story of how an attempt was made last yaar to associate with the pageant of the great Durbar eere- monv at Delhi the prusentatlon of an Im- perial crown a» tho spontaneous freewill offering of the ruling princes and people of India, it was thought that a coronation ceremony without a crown would be some- what remarknl.!" n-i the extating crowns could not. of ■• taken out of Eng-

land; the wh.e . ea of the thing. Its

charms and Hb grace, depended on its belns spontaneous and unofficial. ■ The fdoa was received by those to whom It was suhmlttpd with enthusiasm. One ruling prince, pre-eminent for hla loyalty, waa desirous, to use a homely phrase, of doing the whole thing "off his own bat." The prime nvover of the scheme was the Maharala Sir Prodyof Tagorc. representa- tive of the great landholding classes In Ben- gal and of ancient family. Sir Pradyol wail a late sheriff of faleutta. The move- ment, of course, was sub rosa, but in a countrv like India, where everything Is so subjective to official approbation. It was not long before U was found that the ro\ - ernmenl was distinctly against It. Reifer- cncc. It Is believed, was made to the home authorities, nnd the movement wag dis- eou raged.

But still thcro ivrre Ihnse who wl.ihed tn see It proceeded with, and It was ihoughi that the propaganda might be suitably undertaken by a lending organ of the AnKlo-Indlan press, which was keenly re- sponsive. The scheme was to Invite the ruling princes of India and other notabll- llles each to provide some Rem aa a dls- llnetlve contribution, and for the fteneral public m come In with a money suh.«rrip- «lon wb.lch would provide '^or a presenlnhle and Iniierliil gift. The srhem'e waa to have been launched In ihe columns of a leading daily paper In (.Calcutta on coronation day. which allowed of ample time for the prep- nrailon ^f the gift. As a preliminary, various Indian notahllllles who were In- vited nueats to the coronation ceremonj In I.onrloM were approached, and amonur others it may he mentioned here the Maliarala rjneUw'ar of Baioda. But the same In- fluence which had killed Ihe movement In Indln. It may be supposed, extinguished the flame which had animated this orgnn of the Anglo-Indian press. The article which was to have launched the scheme was sup- pressed.

Hut It was an Interesting. If futile, In- eldenl, whlrh may he made known at this lime of day. An Indian crown was pro- vided nt an e.\ponse of £BO,000. and debited ns a oharge on India, and the crown Is now housed In the tower of L,ondon, so the tn.* oppressed ptjoplo of Tndta have hart to bear this cost Orf £60,000 all the same.

Some Eight Hundred Lads Will Spend Their Time Under Canvas on Macaulay Plains — Fine Lot of Boys

The cadets' camp at .\facaulay PlalnB was begun yesterday, when a/'bout 400 hoys from the various HchooLs of Vic- toria marched Into camp. The cadeta of the University School, in their khaki uniforms, iriftrched In ahout 40 strong, and were followed by the High school cadets, about two-thirds of whom were in khaki uniform. r..ater came the hoys of the George Jay school, Lamp- .«on street school and Oak Bay schools, snd other bodies of boys followed to make their home under canvas for the next week at Macaulay Plains.

The steamer Princess Charlotte brouRht 353 more cadets from the mainland In the afternoon. Capt. J. F. Koulkea, paymaster, who I.i In charge of the transport and supplies, taking the place of the absent army service corps for the Work Point garrison, ar- rived with the Vancouver cadets, hav- ing gone to the mainland to make ar- rangements for the trip to Macaulay, and Capt. Moore, district staff officer, met the steamer with five wagons to carry the baggage of the boys. The visiting cadets formed on Belleville street, and, headed by three drummers, the lonff 90iumB mftrcbfffl g^f

I. ^ The .vli$]t)|)lV cadetsL," inclHded one cadet^j^Eajj^ftad a small company of cadets of the Seaforth Highlanders, and contingents from Vancouver, North and South Vancouver and Now Wehitmlnster schools. The only uni- forms worn were those of the cadet of- ficer, and about 20 boys with straw hats and blue sweaters.

Mnjor Snow, corps of guldos, cadet inspector for British Columbia, Is In charge of the camp. Capt. .Moore, dis- trict staff officer, and Lieut. Mulcahey, of the "Work Point parrlson, are looking after the general arrnngoments and in- struction; while Mnjor Hart, P.M.O., of the garrison, is medical officer, and Major Lindsay, of the Royal Engineers. Is looking after the engineering work, the construction of Incinerators, cook- houses, etc., and Capt. Foulkes is In charge of the transport and supply.

When the cadets from the Victoria schools marched In yesterday morniixg they came without the plates, knives, forks and other Impedimenta for their messing, which they had been instruct- ed to bring, with the result that when lunch was prepared and the bugle sounded 'Hl^ome to the r'ookhouse Door" yesterday there was an Impasse until someone suggested that fingers were made before forks, and the cadets lunched without knives and forks. Af- terwards a htirry-up message was sent for the missing articles.

A number of teachers who are fjuall- fying for the position of cadet in- structors under the terms of the Strathcona Trust are In camp with the boys, and, together with the officers In charge of the camp, they will mess with the cadets.

The cadets are housed In hell tents supplied from the quartermaster's stores of the local garrl.'^on, and eight hoys sleep In a tent. They will remain in camp until Wednesday next, when the tents will be strtick and the boys return to their homes.

the league. > They say he would stand tho Coast League hitters on their heads too, If he got the chance. "Tonny" has something on the Seattle team, for he has not lost a game to them this year. He hasn't got 'the speed and the hooks that he had when he was with the Aberdeen club in 1907, but he. knows how to pitch now and has the old con- trol, without which no man can win consistently. .. . ,.'< it;' •. ■

'There are mutterlngs of dissension on the Tacbmn Club, and one rumor is that Mike Lynch ia to be deposed as manager. Owner Watkins, however, says he is going to stick to Mike. The Tacoma club went to Portland a few weeks ago leading the league. Some- thing happened down there, the full particulars of which have not yet been made public, and ever since "tha't tithe tlie club has been losing steadily. Yohe was sold to Victoria and Cameron 'was released, and the club has been winning about one game in five since that time. When the pitchers are going along all right, the Tigers have strength enough to do better than that.

In a three-mile sculling race here this afternoon. thereby retaining professional cham- pionship of America and winning a purse of »1,000 pa the side. Durnan finished about twenty lengtii.s ahead of Haines kiuI was never pressed after the first mile. The time wajs very ^low. Durnan made the first mile and k half to the turn In 9.37 2-5, but, took 20.2U 2-5 for the f-viil distance. The weather conditions were perfect, the water being still and the air tem- perate. Durnan started with an easy stroke. 31. to the minute, while Haines rowed 36, later dropping to 32, while at the finish i\f. was rowing only 27.

Haines had the misfortune to break a foot >race in the first half mile after the turning, and he was handl- c.-ipped by swells from launches too close to the course. But Durnan al- ready had the race at his mercy and Haines disadvantages only meant two or three extra lengths lead for Dur- nan who did not exert himself after the turn. Durjian. made a perfect turn saving a couple of lengthe there. Haines, tliough not so familiar with the course as his rival, did not de- viate an inch from Ills course through- out.

Haine.'.- looked dangerous only at one point, towards the end of the first mile, when he drew up to Durnan and a foul appeared Mkel.v, Durnan hav- ing swerved into Haines side .of tlie course but Durnan drew away and increased his lead to the " end. A. i-'laude Macdonnell, M. p., who rcf- erecd, said he had never seen a tnoro perfect race. , Durnan was the favor- itc 2 to 1 .n betting and considerable money changed hands. The bay *'as crowded -Aill, plea-^ure craft, but there ■nere no .mi.'Shaps, except the collap.se oi the Ar^fonaut clubhouse float after the race. Haines and several ■offi'- clal.i and spectators got a ducking but were fished out.

*'??'.■ :J??l!''.''>'^'<»n,FM Sreatly admired and the Amerlcari athletes whose only representative In tlie eevnt. Fred. H. Kelser.»of the Xew York A. C, dropped out after two miles, seemed to enjoy the triumph of the Ga>ji9.dian as much as one of their many victories. Various ZTations Compete

Various nations were introduced in the eleven trial heats and six semi- finals In the HO metres hurdles. Am- ericans took eight first and one second in the trials and five firsts in the semi- finals. Thus Martin Hawkins, John P. .Xlcholson, Ja.«. Wendall. Fred W. Kel- ley and John R. Case will run with the Hrit!«4ii representative, Powell, in the final.

Lieut. Geo. 8. Patton continues to re fleet credit on West Point training. By his riding in the cross country event at 6000 metres today he gained fourth place In the modern pentathlon. The .Swedish officers led but the Swedes had a month's practice and had studied tho difficulties of the course, -which include seventy-five Jumps of various kinds. Patton had a fall at the second of tho double ditches. Tomorrow this contest will conclude with a i;ross-country foot race of '1000 metres In which the Ain- t-rlcan officer is considered to have an excellent chance.

The swimming this evening furnished ft new world's record for the 400 metres free style. Healy.th*' Australian, In his trial .heat covered the distance In B.SI. He is the popular favorite for the final.

The 'wrestling continues slowly. The assemblage of picked giants of Europe who throw each -other about on the plat- tarms furnish a picturesque show. The swimming draws a fashionable army to the waterside nightly, the most pop- ular feature being the women who do high diving, and play "polo In •'"tightly fittin,i;r garments.

The score as officially .announced to- night is:

I'nlted States. SS; Sweden. 62; Great Britain, 51; Germany, 23; Finland. 20; France. 19; Africa, 11: Denmark, II; Norway, 10; Italy. 9: Canada, 6; Hun- srtiry, 6; Australia. 1; Russia, Greece, Relciuiri and Austrl.i, 3 each; Holland.

Ni'ii' vvhnt Mr DIcken.oon gays about the all-steel Raleigh:

SO.OOO .MUen On One Bicycle — .Vow that the fraud of the "bargain" bicycle has been »o Ihorougiily exposed It Is to be Imped that prospective buyers will Klve up Ideas of (ffttliig good machines at an absurd price and only purchaB"! bicycles that have a good reputation to inatnlain. A so-called "bargain" breaks up In a very few miles, whereas a Rood maohlne will Inst for tens of thousands of miles. A good Instance of iIiIb has occurred In the case of a Raleigh iiischlne which Mi. Dickenson, of ABliton-ln-Makerrield. TjincH.shlre. has ridden every day, wet or fine, for the last nine years, over ail kinds of road.?. In this lime he has covered 80.000 miles, and when the machine was o\erhaul(!d by a KiilelKli apent It was found tViat all the bearings were In working- order. This speaks volumes for llie good wojjkmani'hlp and genuine material used In the building up of the all-steel bicycle.
