The great value of these trials is not quite to test the actual engines and boilers, because the engineers have never had any doubt of their reliability; but it indicates in a very indubitable way the starbina of an English man-of-war's crew that such severe trials should be so successfully carried out in the hottest part of a tropical climate; and that a ship should successfully reach the full speed and power which. is made by the contractors at home, particularly after the Spartiate hind accomplished a voyage of 10,000 miles at am average speed of 13 knots. In such a case If it is a question of the human element, the Spurtinte had failed – as happily it did not-it would have bges through the and there is no doubt that it was a most unfair ordeal to which to sub.

been purchased by the foremost men of overy profession and calling. This is, in itself, a powerful argument in favour of the book, but the fact that the list of subscribers in England includes the names of the Marquis of Salisbury, Field Marshal Lord Roberts, Mr. Rudyard Kipling: tho Lord High Chancellor, and Mr Herbert Spencer, is not so much to be marvelled at as has been the Recoptance of the offer in places where acceptance would not be expected.

The box, inno- cent onough in appearance, but containing enough explosive to blow the bottom out of the big liner, was lying alongside the first cabin gangway when found by detectives acting under instructions from Capt.

God save us! How frightful is all this! But what is all the row about anyhow? What has taken place? About what do the British orators inske such a noise?
Reuter's agency and the Peking corros- pondent of the Times explain what is the mattor, but, judging from their telegrams the cause of all this excitement is very slight. It is said that the Russian Chargé d'Alaires in Peking presented to the Chi nese Government an ultimatum in which he asked that Government to immediately sign a separate treaty with regard to Manchurin, a treaty which was very unfavourable to Chias.
It was laid down in this ultimatum that in case the Chinese Government did not sign the treaty at once, Russia would not evacuate Manchuria. The treaty which Russia usked Chins to sign consisted of eight articles in which it was stipulated that China was not to allow any foreigner save Russians to obtain a foothold in Man- churia, that no new ports were to be opened to foreign trade, that the number of foreign consuls in Manchurin must not be increased.
(The Novoye Fremya then goes on to summarise the information about the Russian demands which had reached Lon- don from Poking.)
Now we can say with certainty, for we derive our knowledge from a most trust- worthy source, that Russia did not send any ultimatum to the Chinese Government and did not request China to sign a nOW trenty about Manchuria as a condition of the evacuation of that country.
