In this respect the flagration is the most disastrous that has ever visited this city.

Good export cattle were firm, with, if anything, an upward tendency, but as a representative price 5Jc is top for the best stuff, though more was paid in individual cases to-day. There was an early clearance. Butcher cattle was also unchanged from Tuesday; indeed the cattle trade showed no alteration from the conditions that prevailed early in the week, and the prices we then gave stand good to-day. Good to choice butcher cattle fetched from 4J to 5c per lb to-day. Following is the range of quota- but Brandy' have started Baths or the Tarleton, which a joins the Baths at Illinois Avem and the board walk. About a doz< men were arrested during the day for robbery. COURSE OF THE FLAMES. The fire was discovered shortly after 9 o'clock on Thursday morning, and for nearly five hours the flames raged with such violence as tc threaten the city with destruction All of the burned buildings were frame structures, ar.d the flames, fanned by a strong south-west wind, swept along the beach front amazing rapidity. The Tarleton Hotel was soon a pile of debris, the flames fed on the small stores and booths between Illinois arid Kentucky Avenues, until they reached the Stratford Hotel, which was soon enveloped. Next the fire attacked the Berkeley, adjoining, and in a few minutes the New Holland, the Bryn Mawr, thq Evard, and the Stickney, oil located on Kentucky-avenue, near the beach. The local fire department worked well, but was unable to cope with the flames, and it was found necessary to send to Philadelphia and Camden for aid. The former city sent three engines, and two came down from Camden. The engines were brought here on :pecial trains, furnished by the and they i ! till 1 Of I Of l , assistance to the local firemen, but it was not until an hour after their arrival that the fire could be said to be thoroughly under control. Nothing is left on the board walk from Illinois Avenue to a p within a few feet of Young's but the iron supports. This is portion of the walk that is most by promenaders. All the guests of the burned hotels who were forced to seek other q tors, have been provided for in o hotels and boarding houses. MASSACRE OF BOERS. A despatch to the London Centra News from Southampton says Lieut' Witton, an Australian officer of the Bushveldt Carbineers, who was found guilty of participating in the kill of Boer prisoners and sentenced imprisonment for life, arrived there on Thursday on the transport Canada. He was handcuffed and closely guarded. Lieut.

Witton says one of their fellow-officers of the name of Hunt, had been murdered by Boers. Later the Australians captured a party of Boers, one of whom was wearing Hunt's uniform. This man was tried by drumhead court-martial and shot. Australians believed the sen-e a just one, and that they were entitled to carry it out. Lieut.

A Winnipeg despatch says :--The Liquor Act, which was on Wednesday submitted to a popular vote, been defeated by a straight jority of several thousand. The Referendum Act stipulated that case it should appear that only 45 per cent, of electors, both on and off the list, vote in the affirmative (2) that at least 60 per cent, of all such persons have voted and that at least 60 per cent, of those who have so voted have given affirmative answers; or (3) that at least 62J per cent, of said electors who have voted have given affirmative answei thereto, the Liquor Act shall go int force on June 1st, 1902, but case any one of the three resuP mentioned shall not be obtained, the Act shall be wholly repealed. ONLY HALF REQUIRED VOTE. The total vote polled in the Province was 23,878, 14,764 against 9,114 for, leaving a majority against the Act of 5,650. Taking this total roughly at 24,000, sixty-two and two-thirds of this would be 15,000. Take the temperance vote from this, viz., 9,114, leaves 5,886, which is only 37J of the vote, or only half the vote polled which the Referendum Act required the temperance men to roll up in order to put Liquor Act in force. HEAVY IN WINNIPEG. In the city the vote was e> tionally heavy, especially in morning, the largest that was polled during the first few hours of any election ever held here, which '" more remarkable since the polls w( open until 8 p.m. There was a < sire on the part of all big employers of labor to have a fair expression of opinion, and all the large firms allowed their men double time a1 noon, to cast their ballots. A noticeable feature of the morning'! vote was that a large number took the declaration, the Act permitting practically manhood suffrage, and anyone who was not on the list, and had been a resident of the Provi for a year, was permitted to take the oath and vote. WENT BY DISTRICTS. The vote against the Act, starting from the city with its majority of three thousand, seemed to run generally along the railway lines due south and west, through the French and Mennonite districts, these giving notable majorities against the Act's enforcement, the Frenchmen voting almost to a man against, and the Mennonite ballot being twenty one against. Following the li along the southwest, the villages and towns went against the Act until Mountain, Hon. Thomas Green-way's constituency, was reached, where the vote swung the other way. For instance, at Crystal City, Greenway's headquarters, the vote stood 51 no, 119 yes. On the Northwestern branch the vote generally ■P^iigair.st the Act At Neepawa, lion .7. A 'DsOTilson's* RCatr5 whicl: has been a prohibition town always, the vote was 173 against and 144 RURAL VOTE FOR IT. The vote generally in favor of the Act is from the great bulk of farmers, away from railway centers, towns, and villages. This vote, was anticipated, has been most tori ally reduced by the bad roads, many of which are still under w ^ -- or in an otherwise impassable dition, and by the action of the temperance organization, at their Inst general meeting, whereby they undertook to make no effort to get out the vote. This, of course, left the liquor organization a clear field which fact it evidently took ad vantage of. LATER REPORTS. It is estimated that the total vote cast for and against prohibition wiP reach over 40,000. Additional re turns give increased majorities for the antis. Tacho and DeSalaberry givo large majorities against the Act. The official majority for Winnipeg is 3,406 against. In round numbers the totals now stand at 12,200 for and 18,800 against. Unreported places are i-xpevtod to split about even, leaving a straight jority of about 6,000 against enforcement of the Act. SAUSAGE MYSTERY SOLVED. "John," asked Mrs. Murkle. "whi is the matter with those sausages? You haven't even tasted the o Something's wrong.

But you have merely permitted yourself to elevelop a foolish prejudice against her. She is the best cook we have ever had, and you arc playing the part of a illy child in refusing to eat the sausages merely because she prepared them. You really don't know how good they arc. I never tasted anything bettor in my life. I'd be ashamed, if I were in your place, to let a foolish whim stand in the way of my enjoyment of a good meal." "Oh, I don't doubt," h3 replied, s he prepared to leave the table, that they tasted all right. *But I happened to look into tho kitchen his morning, when she was punctur-lg their tires with one of her hair-ins, and, somehow, I haven't had ny appetite for sausage since." Mrs. Murkle turned pale and per-litted her husband to go away ithout a good-bye kiss. WAR AHEAD FOR EH&LABD SERIOUS VIEW OF THE FAB EASTERN SITUATION. Russia and France Say There Can Be No One-Power War in China or Corea. Widely different views are taken throughout Europe of the Franco-Russian declaration in regard to the Anglo-Japanese Alliance. The easiest and simplest interpretation of the declaration is that it is an endorsement of the principles on which the Anglo-Japanese treaty was based and that it furnishes an additional guarantee of peace. This apparently pacific utterance contains, however, an announcement which rouses grave apprehensions in England. These fears find a clear expression in a serious article in the London Spectator, which says:-- "The sting of the Russo-French communique is in the tail. The last clause runs: "Nevertheless, they themselves being also obliged to take into consideration the eventuality of aggi part of e troubles in integrity that powei to their o lied Goi Power, or of fresh China, jeopardizing the md free development of and becoming a. menace ■n interests, the two al- NEWS ITEMS.

"This, obviously, can mean oniy; one thing . The third Power whose ■ possibly aggressive action is contem- | plated is, of course, Japan. In other words, we are warned that if J a- i pan from any cause gets involved in hostilities the war will be with two powers--that is, RUSSIA AND FRANCE. If it comes to war it will be the two-Power war contemplated by the treaty. In other words, the Russc-French declaration finally and entire*-]y disposes of the fond*iliusionf which have been entertained so widely here that in spite of the alliance with Japan there is little danger ol our being involved in dangerous c implications. It has been urged that even if Japan got into war with Russia we might feel quite secure, because the very last thing the French would do would be to come to Russia's assistance. They, it was supposed, would politely tell Russia that they wished her well, but that, it would be a cruel kindness to help her and so bring England into the melee, and, therefore, as true friends they intended to stand aside. "The Russo-French declaration puts an absolute step to all this. It is a clear notice that there can be nc single-power war in the For east We said when the alliance was first announced that we must make up our minds to that alliance bringing with it the possibility of war with France, and, we pointed out also that the alliance left our foreign pol- icy AT THE MERCY OF JAPAN. Japan > miglrB and probably would, prove merciful, for Japan is governed by prudent, astute statesmen, but that could ttot alter the fact that we have placed our foreign relations ir regard to Russia and France, generally, at the mercy of Japa.ii. We may disguise the fact by diplomatic sophistries and we may refuse to re cognize the fact, but the fact remains that we and Japan have our-selves ranged opposite to Russia and some day plunge us into a war which will be fought in the Channel and the Baltic. We do not, of suggest that the risk of war must never be run if vital interests home are involved, but we do think that such risks require grave thought and consideration," This pessimistic opinio echoes on the Continent. Thus the Cologne Gazette recently asserted that Russia and England were uously endeavoring to dra United States to the side that they respectively represent in the threatened conflict. The fact i erica's position in the pr tion is an absolutely commanding one. France is completely committed to Russia in the event of hostilities from a iy cause. Russia finds herself forced to decide definitely whether she will abandon her plans in Manchuria and the Far East generally or FORCE THEM TO FRUITION. If the latter she must act quickly, Fire at Dawson City on Saturday destroyed several valuable steamers. At Montreal Edward Lanrin, who shot and killed his lather's colored coachman, G. W.
