A lecture by the French socialist Deputy Jaures, upon the international duties of “socialists in reference to war, which the Ger-

BIG GUN-RUNNING SCHEME *FRUSTRATED":

ARMS AND AMMUNITION FOR INSURGENTS

A somewliat sensational story concerned with the runcing of guns and ammunition which it stated, were intended for rebels in the Philip department in Hongkong. The scheme was pro- plass, has just been unearthed by the detective Jetted by a syndicats who have previously been suspected of gun running to various countries in the Far East'; and it was financed by men who have ample funds at their command. Had everything gone smoothly; had there been no craven spirit among those who were sounded as to their willingness to embark on the yen- ture, the scheme, cut and dried, would have been on a fair way to a successful conclusion by this time.

the resident there. They got nothing from himMAN PORFULAM, and found nothing on "the premises.” But the scheme has been bipped just as it was be- ginning to blossom. The gentlemen who is at the bottom of the affair has not been seen for two days. He did not turn up last night to sign the syndicate deeds, and where he is now body can tell, or they pretend that they cannot of ammunition are still in Hongkong, however, tell. The 10,000 rifles and 10,000,000 rounds and there is so the al ghtest doubt a bold effort will be made to get them clear of the Colony. One of the members of the enterprise said to a Hongkong Telegraph reprezentative to-day, in a most aggrieved fone-"What have the police to do with it, whatever? Didn't the Tloers run their cannon into South Africa in piano-cases? | Nobody split on them, and if they had done so what would have happened, |Nothing? We can wait a little—there is plenty of time" Another gave a new version of the real destination of the arms and ammunition. We are going to ship the goods to the borders of China, the French borders, and the British Government cannot prevent us. There is no Treaty between Britain and France as to shipping arms and so the Hong just possible that explanation is merely a kong Government canal touch us.". But it is blind. It will be interesting to the outsider and rather exciting for the conspirator to watch developments..
